I'm really enjoying Nottingham Forest this season and to think that they are occupying the 5th position, 1 point below Arsenal and Aston Villa and I must say this is a very commendable effort from Nuno Espirito's men who haven't been able to achieve this feat since 1995(being in the 5th spot, that is).
From the beginning of the game, Nottingham showed dominance and at some point would have lost their balance when Jamie Vardy got the equalizer but I'm glad they continued their press on their hosts and got the results they so deserved. It's funny but Nottingham Forest has just lost one game since the beginning of the season but have four draws and if any one told me they will be competing in the top five above the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham and even Man UTD, I'd really doubt it.
This goes to show how competitive this season is and it won't be all about Man City, Arsenal or Liverpool but more teams people will least expect.

Leicester replying almost immediately after Leicester forest got their first goal show a good fight back sprit and an intended balance in the game, even according to the current statistics, Forest isn't doing any better as Leicester is ahead by possession and other statistical records in the game, so from my view I'm expecting another goal from them even if I know Forest isn't a really bad team but just not having the home advantage which could be considered an edge for them in this game. So far forest performance this season has been on the average literally and meeting an almost equal team like them is with going to end in a draw or either of them getting complete three points but untill the end of the second half let's keep our fingers crossed.
Looking at how Leicester City was very fast to reply the goal of
Nottingham forest one will think that they were going to win the gabit seeing how they couldn't control the game and conceded 2 more goals in the second half shows how the team has dropped in form. It's full-time already and the game ended in a 1:3 in favour of the away team, I was expecting them to come back in the game when they managed to equalize the first goal and were dominating the game in possession one will think they will win the game but funny enough they only had one shot on target from the beginning till the end of the game. Well deserved win for Nottingham Forest.
Truly Man Utd squad should be of better quality than Fenerbache side, however as usual Erik ten Hag had came out with another excuse that his first team quality players are out injured, citing example like Luke Shaw, Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia and Mason Mount from my own point of view that excuse is not acceptable because Man Utd is a big club I expected the team to have enough depth to cover or replace any injured player despite the huge amount of money spent last summer,
Manchester United have been playing draw in all their Europa League matches, so even their last match wasn’t really surprising to me. Ten Hag complained about some of his players having injuries last season, that was the reason for the club's poor performance, and we are already in another season, and he's still complaining about players having injury. There are lots of clubs facing injury problems, and they are still performing well, so why is Manchester United just different? As a club, you are supposed to have some quality players on the bench that will be used in case injury cases come up, they will be able to replace the players on injury, but Manchester United is not having any quality player on bench.We all can see the squad’s that Chelsea are having, most of the players used by Enzo Maresca in the conference league don’t start in Premier League matches, which means Enzo can form two different squads from the players Chelsea are having currently, and we can see that Chelsea are performing well recently. If a club like this is facing injury problems, they won’t really feel it because they have replacements.
It is quite understandable why a lot of people seem to be very sceptical about this match between Liverpool and Arsenal. Liverpool are already on a winning streak at the moment whereas Arsenal are a bit shaky with a loss and lots of injury problem and a red card that would prevent one of their key defender, William Salliba from participating in this match, be that as it may, it still doesn't mean that this match would be a walk in the park for Liverpool, I think Arsenal would still prove very difficult for Liverpool and may still snatch a point from this game because even Mikel Arteta has already boasted during one of his interviews that against Liverpool that they Arsenal would fly, so it going to be a very tough game for the both sides.
It is only natural that most bettors behave like that, because as explained that Arsenal's strength is not 100% in its usual condition when facing Liverpool later, but I am sure Arteta already has a plan as a great coach he knows what to do to cover up the shortcomings in his team to block Liverpool's attacks which have been very good so far, especially Arsenal has the advantage as the host their confidence will increase greatly in front of their own supporters. The opportunities given by the bookies are also still balanced, this means that the match can be won by both parties, let's see what the final result is, what is clear is that this match will be tight.
Are there any other people who would love to see Erik Tan Hag become the next coach of Manchester City when Pep Guardiola leaves this summer? 
I mean I know that doesn't make any sense and will not happen, but I also can't stop thinking how funny that would be, I would be leaguing every week.
A team that dominated the league with one of the best coaches ever, to end up going towards the worst coach ever and ruining their domination and start to lose every single game. That would be so funny, that is the entertainment we are paying for, suddenly we see City at 12th place or something lol. Obviously that won't happen, but I have never seen a team go from that great to that bad, and would love to see it, not gonna lie.
Manchester United are in shackles currently, they're unable to meet the criteria of an elite team this season, been unable to reach their peak, the inconsistent game results, and more to reconsider about the club. They're weigh out of league and everyone knows that. We don't underestimate a manager that's trying so hard to make things run smoothly on his end. Erik Ten Hag incharge of Manchester United, there's couple matching stats to explore for the team. For instance, Erik Ten Hag in Ajax and the one in Manchester United, you see the difference? Ofcourse there's more difference and similarities we could comprehend.

Manchester United and Manchester City are both different team, one is topping the EPL table and winning major trophies while the other is struggling and battling with challenges, winning becomes very difficult for them and that's not a good example of an elite club. Pep Guardiola handled his team properly, although the board and the fans was crucially patient with him to build the club to become standard and top today, the same case reversed to Erik Ten Hag? I don't think so because ETH have been given all the time in the world to elevate the club but there's absolutely no evidence for his actions and stats.

Leicester City has shown lots of improvement from when they began this season, so many noticable changes especially in their defense, I think they have started to adapt to life in the premier League and this is important if they want to remain on the league.
But I honestly feel they need a striker to keep vardy on his toes. Yes he is a club legend but he would need to start coming of the bench to create more impact than he is doing right now.

It's halftime at the King Power stadium and Leicester City is playing out a 1:1 draw against Nottingham Forest. It was the visitors who opened the scoring inside the first 16 minutes of the game before former England international Jermie Vardy tapped in from 4 yards to draw his side level. Leicester have been the dominant side inside the first half of the game with 62% ball possession to their name already but whenever the visitors attack, they always look dangerous. Generally it's been an entertaining game for neutrals and I think there'll be a winner at the end
EDIT: Chris Wood has done it and it seems that Nottingham could go home with all 3 points.

Because of the large amount of money spent on bringing in players, the big effect of the spending is not so significant. Maybe he needs time and a lot more money to be able to make Manchester United as strong as before. Or another possibility is that as long as he is the coach of Manchester United, the situation will not change which is not capable of changing anything as Ronaldo said in the podcast with Rio Ferdinand.If you want Manchester United to be great again, they have to change from the bottom up. That's more or less what Ronaldo said.
If you think about it, what Ronaldo said is very relevant to the situation of Manchester United so far. Oddly enough, when Manchester United needed a goal in a match, Erik ten Hag actually brought out a striker.
Even with Ronaldo they couldn't rise as expected. Generations of players have changed and things will never be the same as before. Rebuilding everything from management to teams is a necessity, but this will never happen sporadically for various reasons and considerations. What needs to be done now is to replace the new manager and hope for positive changes.

Leicester City vs Nottm Forest
Leicester (confirmed lineup): Mads Hermansen, James Justin, Wout Faes, Memeh Caleb Okoli, Ricardo Pereira, Wilfred Ndidi, Harry Winks, Abdul Fatawu, Facundo Buonanotte, Stephy Mavididi, Jamie Vardy.
Nottingham Forest (confirmed lineup): Matz Sels, Ola Aina, Nikola Milenkovic, Murillo, Alex Moreno, Ryan Yates, Nicolas Dominguez, Anthony Elanga, Elliot Anderson, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Chris Wood.
Nottingham Forest have really show consistency this season which surprises me a lot, tonight they will be at King Power Stadium home of Leicester to go against Leicester in their 9th Premier league. For long Leicester have been suffering in the hand of Nottingham Forest because Nottingham Forest have more wins when playing against each other, in their head to head Nottingham Forest secured more wins even in their last meeting Nottingham Forest take a lead with 2 - 0, let see if luck will be at the side of Leicester to win tonight.

Talking about how pathetic Manchester United is, does Ten Hag feel the same way about his team because he's yet to believe that he has failed automatically in taking Manchester United back to its winning ways? I don't know what's giving him hope or backing him for him to think or say that people should judge him at the end of the season like he's gonna do magic by then to give Manchester United a trophy. Probably, it won't be the Premier League, and neither will it be the Europa League. Maybe some other league title he has in mind.
However, it's unexplainable how Manchester United has reached this stage where weaker teams would say, "They are better than me." This is what Ten Hag has caused by bringing Manchester United to appear as a mediocre team that is not consistent in winning their matches
I have watched the game, while Fenerbahce had some missed chances, United also had a lot of missed chances as well, if you watch the replay of the game, or highlights, you will see how many chances United wasted and could have been great. I do not know what people expect Mourinho to say, "we barely got away with a point on this game"?However, it's unexplainable how Manchester United has reached this stage where weaker teams would say, "They are better than me." This is what Ten Hag has caused by bringing Manchester United to appear as a mediocre team that is not consistent in winning their matches
Of course he won't say that, his ego wouldn't let him say that, but that is the truth, I do not know if they have any missing players or not, I have no idea about their squad, but I can say that United played their right back on attacking midfield and they still almost won this game, so it's clear who was the better team here. Plus, United has probably their worst coach in history managing them, if they had even slightly better coach, they would have destroyed in this game.
However, it seems that things are still not going well for Manchester United. because they also just failed to get full points in the Europa League against Fenerbahce. In this match, even though Fenerbahce is the home team, the depth of Manchester United's squad should be far superior to the home team. But Manchester United still failed to win in that match. And on Sunday Manchester United will also visit West Ham's headquarters. And I hope that in this match Manchester United can play better and win. And if it turns out that Manchester United is still having difficulty winning, then it feels like this club's journey will not improve at all this season. So far, no major changes have occurred at this club.

It seems to me that ten Hag is not able to change anything in the current situation, for this he needs to change something in the team, but he just spent a lot of money on the transfer market and it did not give any result, what next, most likely he will ask for new transfers if he is allowed to do so. West Ham does not have a very good defense, maybe Manchester United will be able to play well in attack, but it seems that for them in recent games this is a problem, a lot of draws and few goals scored.

Manchester United struggle in the this season: upon all the weakened games they have played many people still have hope in the team. Jose Mourinho said Manchester United will still do well in this season even though they are struggling with their Matches now. He said they will succeed later
We can't take that here but their games will tell us if really they are going to do well or not.
I considered Manchester United as favorites with a well performing team. But seeing his performance and record, I don't like his performance and hard work and the recently played match also ended in a draw against a weaker team. Manchester United have brought about their own destruction as they are neither playing hard nor win matches. I think Manchester United should have prove to be better in this league to win matches and establish a good position.We can't take that here but their games will tell us if really they are going to do well or not.
Manchester United are weaker than what used to be but this is their true performance since years after Ferguson departure. Mourinho was able to make Manchester United lose two points although their early goal.
Manchester United are sitting in the 21th position ion in the table and they should avoid collecting 3 points by draws..
This season will be a nightmare for Man United if they don't find a solution to their problems soon. Not only in the Premier League, they might also be eliminated in the Europa League. If indeed all the setbacks came from Ten Hag, then the board must firmly look for a replacement, no matter how much they have to lose to do that as long as it can make Man United better.
