Tottenham's big win over Manchester United was not because Tottenham's performance was good at the beginning of this season but indeed Man United's performance was very bad so that it was successfully utilized by the Tottenham team.

It is natural for Tottenham to win, but apart from that they also have to improve to be better and make this win the starting point of their revival because if we look at Tottenham's overall performance, it is very inconsistent, even since last season, so the work that must be completed by Ange Postecoglou is to be consistent with their team's best performance and if that works I think Tottenham can compete in the top 4.

For more than a decade, Spurs have always started the season a bit poorly but have consistently finished in the top 10. So whatever happens right now, we don't need to worry about Spurs situation because this team is actually very experienced in maintaining a certain position. However, they always struggle to compete for the EPL title. Regarding the match against Man United, the victory was well deserved by Spurs because the performance of Ange Postecoglou's team is much better at the moment.

When will this end? Only when the club's owners realize that Hag is not fit to coach such a team. You are right that his first positive results should not have been the basis for his development. Indeed, he is not up to the job. The stakes are too high. There is a high probability that he will soon be replaced by someone else, as this decision is already becoming obvious. No, this is not his level.

The contribution of one of these attackers is very influential in his team, indeed Haaland is the key to Manchester City because he has his own advantages with his good performance also supported by his young age which of course makes him still have full stamina to compete. The title victory that they got in a row is a very good thing, besides that with the long-buried rumor saying that Pep Guardiola will leave Manchester City and if that happens then he said Haaland will also leave his team, if this really happens then it will affect Manchester City's performance.
Of course if Haaland is injured I think it could affect their performance, although not big but their coach must find a replacement who can replace this position for a while.

Most likely you have mentioned Manchester United but you have mistakenly written Manchester City instead of Manchester United.  
However, Manchester United was a traditional team but since Ten Hag took over Manchester United, the position of this team has gone from bad to worse. The reason I say traditional club is because Ronaldo played in this club at one time and when Ronaldo played in this club the condition of this club was very good.  

Now it may not seem like this team was in the list of best performing team in Premier League but if you are in the past statistics of Manchester United then you will wonder how a team that performed so well turned into such a bad team.  
However, Manchester United should change the manager quickly and put a competent manager in charge of the club.

Tottenham team can't start this season well. Tottenham's performances have been erratic since the start of the season. Tottenham have lost against Arsenal and Newcastle. The team lost points in these two matches due to the weakness of the attack. Tottenham team also failed to win against Leicester City.

In the early matches of the season we saw poor performances from Tottenham's attacking players. However, in the last two matches, I saw quite a good performance from the players of Tottenham. Tottenham won 3-1 against Brentford and 3-0 against Manchester United. Compared to the first matches, Tottenham's overall performance is very tidy. Hope to see a more stable performance from Tottenham in the future.

The player from Norway is really great and he always excels, but of course it is normal that he has scored 10 goals in Premier League matches because of his good skills and also having good friends in Manchester City so Haaland can easily score goals, I also think the same as you, namely that Haaland is indeed the strongest candidate to win the golden boot this season.

Leicester City, Ipswich Town, and Southampton are of course normal if they haven't won yet because they are clubs that have just been promoted to the Premier League and of course it's possible that these clubs will play well in the next match, but it's definitely not an easy thing. for the 3 teams that have just been promoted to the Premier League, it is because the teams in this league are very strong, so of course the 3 teams need a little process to be able to win against teams in the premier league. but yes, it is a shame that Crystal Palace and Wolves have never won, but yes, this is the start of the season and of course it could happen that there will be surprises from the 5 teams.

yes, Ipswich is a club that has just been promoted to the premier league, but in my opinion Ipswich is playing well and of course it is natural that it is ranked 15th in the standings and in my opinion it seems like Ipswich has the potential to continue to develop its performance in the premier league and I am also amazed that Ipswich can drew against Aston Villa. Yes, Manchester City and Arsenal have never lost and of course this indicates that these two teams are extraordinary, so we'll see whether there is a team that can beat them or not.

You make good point. Tottenham performance this season is not as good as last season by the way they have strong team. Maybe they have stopped improving while other teams have gotten better. I do not think beating Manchester United is meaningless. Beating any top team in English Premier League is impressive.
However, Manchester United is not playing well right now making them easier to beat. Smaller teams have already beaten them this season showing how competitive league is.
To be considered real contenders Tottenham needs to consistently beat top teams like Arsenal, Manchester City or Chelsea.

No doubt that Cole Palmer is a gem and this time the talisman for Chelsea, if he carries on like this he would be a top contender for the premier league player of the season like season and could possibly win it this season. He is goal scorer but I would peg him to Halaand even if he has same team as Halaand. Palmer is getting goals because of the structure or pattern of football his team plays, he is behind a person like Jackson who doesn’t scores like that and as such he is their best point man to find, if he gets to city or has someone like Halaand upfront he wouldn’t get feed like how he gets them now and that will reduce his goals. So his perfectly fit for this Chelsea team.


More to say that was a very hash decision and hasty one also from the referee. Would this appeal offer anything to Manchester United I would say No they would have needed the turn of decision in that game instead of playing a man down. I actually even wanted Bruno out for those three games because of the way he is been performing and been insulted by the United fans of recent, Bruno has been playing almost nonstop since the year started and he needs rest hopefully even against Aston Villa Ten Hag still rests him. But this overturn of red card shows how bad the English referees are

Actually, it's not too special if we look at their opponent, Man United, it's like that, what more can we expect. And previously, Tottenham also couldn't beat Arsenal and Newcastle. It's just that, we know how Man United is, even though they're not that good, but they're still always considered a big club. That's why when Tottenham beat Man United, it felt very special. But you're right, we are still waiting for the next big matches again to see if Tottenham has really increased significantly well or not.

Anyway about Man United, in the final Man United won the appeal against the red card received by Fernandes. See this will really chance the performance to be better again?

We can say they have most of their players fully strong and fitted this season yet their performance this season cannot be compared to last season. I dont know if they remain at the same level of performance and if other clubs have improved that is why they are not getting the most out of their games.

Also, I think defeating Manchester United was not a big deal for Tottenham. You should be saying this if Tottenham had beaten teams like Arsenal or Manchester City or even Chelsea. Who is Manchester United this season for winning them to be a great achievement? Many clubs in the EPL now can win Manchester United. And when i mean by many clubs i mean, underdogs team.

The defeat was a game changer for Tottenham but they should have done it honorably without the red card of Bruno Fernandez, I'm not saying they are not capable but the roasting of Manchester United would have been more sweeter if they won Manchester United without losing one man, it would have been better so they can know how bad it's for Ten Hag to continue with this journey where he will be heading with Manchester united by the end  of the season.

Bournemounth just change the table configuration and further sink Manchester United to 13 places, I never knew they haven't played their match until yesterday and fortunately, Southampton lose their games to Bournermounth and they have to remain there. I pity who is the real Manchester United voice of representatives because this doesn't looks like it's working for the team even a little.

I think if Cole Palmer can come goal to goal with Haaland, even though Haaland is given Golden Booth for achieving more number ahead of Palmer, there are other award Palmer will use to beat Haaland because he second highest with goals right now and also among the top second with humber of assist, such a forward that is not selfish and put team together, if indeed Chelsea forward gives him support like Haaland is having in Manchester City, he will be up there.

I think IPswitch may not be that good but the matches the have draw says a lot about how their journey will go later. They are now ahead of Leicester City that top the Championship last season from second division, better than Everton and Crystal palace, if they can just win their next match, the gap they are going to create will be huge that other teams will find it hard to meet up only if they are serious after a win.

I must commend that you are right on point. Most person have become too blinded by the FA cup won by ten hag and they don't see the flaws of ten hag's management skills.  Manchester United is too big for ten hag to manage, in addition to the fact that, this is Premier League, a different one from his previous league. What the team needs is a minimum of 25 wins but with the look of things, Manchester united is not ready to make such record. I feel so sad knowing that he has sold lots of potential players and replace them with unprofessional and inexperienced players, I wonder when is this going to end.

It's obviously Haaland may break another goal record this season provided that he is injury-free because of high score rate and playing forva star-studded club Man City with quality players who can provide him with assist.
There is the possibility of any of these clubs to fight relegation battle particularly Southampton, Ipswich, Leceister who just got promoted to premier league because they can't compete at the highest level.
While both Man City and Arsenal are yet to lose any match and both clubs has the same points with same goal differences, However definitely unbeaten run would soon end.

While I do agree that Haaland scores a lot of goals and he is a key figure for Manchester City, lets remember that he has been there for two seasons, this is his third if I am not wrong, and City won last 5 titles out of six, with four of them coming back to back. So that means they were good before him as well, he is not the reason why they win, so if they won without him, I am sure that they will do that again.

Not like if Haaland gets injured, that means they have to play with ten players, they will just put someone else in, and they will win like how they used to win. This isn't a simple thing, and I agree that City would hurt a lot, like how KDB was missing last year and they had trouble, but they didn't become terrible, they were ok enough compared to everyone else. Haaland scores a lot on unimportant games too, not like he scores on UCL knock out stages that much, so what they are missing would be some player who will score 4 goals against league last.

Tottenham were stronger in the beginning of last season than this season, they had a better start last season compared to this season even though they played some tough matches in the beginning of this season which they did the same last season; they are generally strong because they have good players in their squad.

Defeating Manchester United is a great achievement for Tottenham, because they really needed the three points and also to prove people that thinks they can’t win match it out Son who was left out of their squad due to injury.
Wining Manchester United away from home helped the team to maintain their eight position in the Premier League table and sending Manchester United back to 13th position with just seven points after six games which looks embarrassing for team like Manchester United.

The worst part is that he acts as if there is no pressure and the management is behind him and he has nothing to worry about. I do not know if he actually believes that he will not be fired, or if he just acts like he will not be fired but he never mentions or accepts that he might be fired.

INEOS is clearly thinking about firing him, there is no way they can keep him if United keeps losing points where they shouldn't, and if they keep this up then ETH could be fired. I am waiting for the next two games, if they lose to Porto and Villa, then he is going to be sacked, without a doubt.

There are some better managers as mentioned who are out there looking for a job, we can see one of them get hired as well and United will start the recovery process.

The hardest part is that they haven't gotten any better with so many different managers now, I do not know what they can do next ,if they hire someone and that person also does badly, then it will become very hard for them to move on. We know there is a problem with United that goes beyond ETH because they sucked before him too, and yet I do not know what the problem is, so we need to figure that out if we want United to be better in the future.

But as far as Manchester I know, if Manchester are going to be weak, they are for a while.  Because there are better performance and stronger teams than Manchester.  Whose pressure is weakening Manchester.  But you will see that in a few matches, Manchester will return to the same good performance condition and will also get the same position.  It could also be Manchester's pride that is taking them down.  If their players have courage and play with good performance, they can win the match.  Where every Manchester used to defeat ordinary teams by a few goals, now they are defeated by them.  If Manchester don't focus on progress now, they will go further down.  But I am very sorry to hear and see that Manchester is going under pressure.  Yes, if Manchester feels this is the way to go, they should understand and do it.  Because for some time they will win this match and move towards their position.

Tottenham football team is becoming strong because all players of that team are playing with ful strength and they are playing for their team and no one wants to make number in the eyes of audience and that is positive thing in these players and that is big reason of their success. Manchester United football team could not do any single goal which shows that di d not prepare for their future matches.  Tottenham has good position on points table which will give them good opportunity for the next matches and door for the success. That was the first time when Tottenham team won the match against Manchester United team . In the last 4 matches when both teams played against each other ,two matches were draw and Manchester United team won two matches.
