Giving up a goals advantage shows that Everton is lacking some important qualities. I thought they would have defended those two goals and at least got a draw. But some poor defending and lack of organization caused them to receive two cheap goals. The third goal was a masterclass, and Jhon Durán deserves to be awarded the best goalscorer of the week.

Just like Southampton, Everton have not won a game this season. Sean Dyche shouldn't take all the blame because we need to know how much the club management budgeted for the transfer window and how was it used. The club was the lowest spender in the Premiership this season with just: £28.17m. However, the English coach needs to put more effort because low- financially backed clubs like Wolves, Leicester and Brighton are putting up good performances.

This match was quite competitive, but it cannot be denied that Manchester United was superior in every way compared to the Southampton players. The reason is that in that match Manchester United managed to score 3 goals against Southampton and Southampton were unable to score a single goal in that match. Apart from that, even though Manchester United managed to win this match, this was not able to bring Manchester United further up the rankings. The reason is that after this victory Manchester United only ranked 10th in the Premier League with 6 points. So Manchester United needs more wins to continue to climb the rankings in the Premier League. Apart from that, this victory over Southampton cannot be used as a benchmark that Manchester United's performance has improved. Because it takes a fairly balanced opponent to judge how well Manchester United is currently performing.

But even so, Ten Hag and the Manchester United players should celebrate this victory. Because after all, Ten Hag and the Manchester United players achieved this victory with great difficulty. But Ten Hag and the Manchester United players also cannot be satisfied with just winning this match. Because there are still many other matches and also stronger opponents waiting for Manchester United.

Two upsets happened yesterday, Brighton can't beat Ipswich Town and Nottingham Forrest win against Liverpool. Brighton is just unlucky enough, while Liverpool play really bad, all the strikers including Salah have a bad xG stats.

It's interesting that this week mostly goalkeepers become man of the match like Muric, Sels, Sanchez and Onana.

I think Arsenal vs Tottenham will end in draw.

Manchester City managed to win with two goal scored by their mainstay striker Haaland, but unfortunately for the first goal in this match it turned out to be scored first by Brentford thanks to goal from Yoane Wissa and this made my bet fail because the 1st goal option could not be as expected.
You are right that in football anything can happen but keep in mind that this is Manchester City match against team that is not so strong so there is belief that the chances for Manchester City to score the first goal in this match are also very large.
Moreover, Manchester City defense is very strong and no one thought that Brentford would be able to get 1 goal advantage at the start of the first half, but I quite happy with the result even though I had to lose the bet.

For the second half the game was much fiercer and Brentford had fairly strong defense, all of Manchester City attacking efforts in the second half also did not produce results, if in this match you take that option for the second half then it will also be failure.

Unfortunately my prediction was wrong because I thought Manchester City would be able to score three goals, but it doesn't matter because Manchester City still leads with two goals. Actually, Manchester City could have scored one more goal, it's just that luck was not on Haaland's side because his shot hit the goalpost. This match really made me uneasy because Brentford really looked like they were making things difficult for Manchester City, also with Manchester City playing uncomfortably as usual because they also looked rushed in their game. But in the end Manchester City was able to maintain their narrow lead until the match ended. Although in the second half Manchester City put a lot of pressure on Brentford, I admit they were quite fierce in their attacks.

Yes Chelsea performance is unpredictable. They play well one day and badly next. Win against Bournemouth shows how unpredictable they are. Chelsea has good players but their defense and attack need to get better. Midfield is good but team needs to work better together. Nkunku is doing well but Jackson needs to reach his full potential. Playing Jackson on right wing would help him use his speed to beat defenders and create scoring chances. When he plays as striker he struggles to score goals which costs Chelsea important points.

Form is exceptional for Liverpool, they've to dive into winning matches if they're desperate to compete with Manchester City for the EPL title. Losing points against mediocre clubs won't help. Wait a second, you called Nottingham Forest thrilling winning against the Reds at Anfield luck? This is EPL and it creates room for shocking games outcomes. Liverpool was fully prepared for their oppositions but the game inversely changed when Nottingham Forest exhibited great chances and they barely missed them compared to Liverpool that having deadlock on goal was their hurdle. Arne Slot have been handled over his first defeats of the season and this time it comes from an average club, that's fighting extremely hard to grab winning points.

Today's game is essentially  enough prove to the fact that gamble  is a game of luck. Its unbelievable  that Liverpool would lose  to Nottingham Forrest considering  there previous  games including that with the red devils. Indeed many bettors  lost due to outcome of Liverpool's  game, I also lost but its a good thing you invest with what you can afford to lose because  even small odds can sometimes be the reason you'll  loss your bet. Brighton  also play nill with ipswich which is also unbelievable but this is football , anything  can happen, even in the last second the game could  be changed with a single did. However  Liverpool  broke their unbeaten so early  but I hope this doesn't  mean they're  beginning  to loss their form now.

I can't remember who said this to me here but i can remember it was on this same thread, this dude told me that in every week in the premier League there is always a team that will surprise us with their disappointing result and I guess he was very right with that statement because Liverpool just proved him right. I'm not a fan but I would have love them to make their 3 points even though I know that Liverpool usually get messed up at the end of the season I still wanted to see them win this assumed weak club.

I am very sure that many gamblers lost this time. Really, the match result was very disappointing. Liverpool wasted too many chances, even this was like a very tight match, many yellow cards were given.

See, what's wrong with their performance?
what a miserable defeat


It starts from losing duels, few rotation, and also poor decision. the players and the coach got big criticism this time.
The problem is, Nottm Forest is not a strong team, they were expected to get full 3 points here, but failed miserably.

Liverpool 0-1 Nottingham Forest: Match Review

I was planning to make easy money (multi bet on City, Liverpool and maybe Bayern/Bayer) but in my local time the games started at 5pm and I was not ready for such an early start. Thank God I didn't have time to place a bet and it saved me money. I didn't see Liverpool's game, judging by the reports everything was sad and Nottingham could have won even 2-0 if they were a little luckier in the second half. I can definitely say that I expected Liverpool to start losing points but definitely not in this game.
As for United, they have received a lot of hate (and rightfully so - just look at their results in the Premier League over the last 15 games lol), but they are not so weak that they cannot beat the underdogs. Maybe now, paradoxically, United are undervalued by bookmakers.

Congratulations to Chelsea on getting the late goal to give them a hard earned 3points from away, the defense line of Chelsea lacked proper communication among themselves they were not very solid today as they were so lucky not to have conceded an own goal because the Bournemouth attackers did all to score goals but all things to the Chelsea goal keeper who was so instrumental in making sure that Chelsea get all three points today.

The Issue of starter between Nkuku and Nicolas Jackson, it is the work of the head coach to decide and I believe what ever he decides will stand in respect to who starts first among the player.

Chelsea are just becoming so much unpredictable, good today and rust tomorrow, I never felt Bournemouth to be that tough opponent to hold Chelsea from scoring not until the last minutes of the game. Chelsea still has more rooms open to players elevating into their highest potentials, with this average/poor performance lately nothing unique can be the outcome, the coach and staffs should see more on how to improve our defence and likely our forward, meanwhile we have no problem with the Midfielders.

Right from date, Nkunku has been the better one compared to Jackson. He always had the starting opportunity to brand himself lately but yet we await to see how success he would become. Personally/preferably Jackson should be played as a winger (RW) because he has shown more of contribution on that position than when he serves as the top striker, his pace serves as an advantage to beat defenders and give assists or even score, Jackson doesn't know how to convert brilliant passes/opportunities into goals and that previously coursed us loosing some important matches and points.

What do you think about the match between Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest? when everyone thought that Liverpool would win easily because playing at home and with a better squad but in fact Liverpool lost the points, I'm sure many gamblers lost in this match including me. Previously Manchester United was a team that was doubted to win but instead they won by 3 goals, it is clear that many matches are not as expected and messed up my parlay bet even though I only choose low odds.

Next we will wait for 2 more matches for week 4 Tottenham vs Arsenal and Newcastle vs Wolves I wouldn't put too much confidence in one team because I'm afraid there will be another surprise in week 4 but it is certain that the match between Tottenham vs Arsenal will be fierce and there is a possibility of more than 2.5 goals Arsenal will look to catch Manchester City and Tottenham as the home team has another advantage. The same thing in Newcastle vs Wolves which is predicted to score at least 3 goals.

I'd agree because they slightly slipped off the fingers of  Bournemouth at home tonight. The defense they started with wasn't good enough no arguments on that. Bournemouth did well to fight and fight but they couldn't geta point outaa the game. They lose too many chances which should have saw them taking the lead ahead. The criticisms of John Mikel Obi has never been wrong, Nicholas Jackson has nothing to offer Chelsea truthfully, he missed too many chances he should have converted. Improvements has been seen but they need to do so consistently. Manchester United are not regretting losing him, maybe you as a Manchester United do not want to see him do well in the club Chelsea. He never had that desire to play for Manchester United. He is not that Manchester United kind of player honestly.

To be very honest, the Liverpool game came to me as a shocker, I never expected Liverpool would loose in such a manner, I mean not getting a single goal was literally a blow in the their face for me, I had taught that a worse case scenario would be them drawing but for me it's so sad they lost literally. I lost my bet too non that game, I predicted Liverpool would get two goals but not a goal to save me sadly. I was so confident I that they were the home team and their records so far speaks volume, now their opponents wasn't supposed to be a tough one.

Aston Villa has successfully to managed their winning streak because today they had just won from Everton with narrow scores 3-2 and playing as a host i can see Aston Villa was very aggressive because they were starting to pressed Everton since the beginning of match and after through an 3 latest matches without scores finally Watkins can make a brace today and this result makes Aston Villa has equal point to Liverpool 9 points

For Everton this is big alert for them because 4 losing streak makes their position currently at the bottom of League table and Everton even still unable to earn points this season and Everton also currently as the team with the poorest defense because until week 4 they had conceded 13 goals and the speculate about Sean Dyche is appears today because he potentially will being an the first manager to be sacked this season because Everton has poor perrormance under him

Chelsea were lucky today. Their defense was not very sharp and would have conceded goals if they faced a tougher opponent. Nkuku has proved to be a better goal scorer than Nicolas Jackson. What a finish! Why did Chelsea extend Jackson’s contract again?? Enough talk of Osimhen, Enzo Maresca should start Nkuku ahead of Jackson in the next game. Sancho is the best signing Chelsea has made this summer. Manchester United are probably regretting they sold Sancho to Chelsea.

I don't think this was the Chelsea we saw before going for the international break because these set of players didn't play like they're the ones that won Wolves 6-2 and managed to get a draw against Palace. When I saw the line up of Chelsea it only shows that Enzo want the Blues to struggle in that encounter, like why is Nkunku always on the bench? This player (Nkunku) should always start, to use his abilities to give the attack of Chelsea a positive force to get goals but I still don't understand the logic or idea of keeping him on the bench, Felix is also on the bench which is not suppose to be for a coach who's desperately in need for a win.
To me Chelsea was lucky to get hold of the 3pt tonight, if Evanilson had converted that penalty kick I believe this game would have ended in a draw or the Bournemouth side would have gone back to defend and it would have been a home victory. Chelsea are not improving in any way and the coach need to do something about it because the players Chelsea have can withstand Liverpool, Arsenal and even Man City but the manager is acting as if he doesn't have the players to make other teams fear them whenever they play.

Losing and winning in betting should be considered normal for every gambler, so that is why they should not bet beyond their ability to be responsible. Liverpool's low odds today are not profitable, in fact the bookie actually makes a big profit from it.



Manchester City has secured 12 points from 4 consecutive matches in the Premier League this season. I am happy with the consistency of this team's performance, especially Haaland who always scores goals. Today Haaland scored 2 goals, but it was a little surprising that Brentford scored quickly in this match in the first minute. Meanwhile Manchester United won the match easily.

Ederson Moraes recorded an assist in this match for Haaland's second goal, it was special for him. At least Ederson Moraes has scored 4 assists so far with Manchester City since the 2017-2018 season until now, I don't know if there is another goalkeeper who has more assists than him. I think Ederson Moraes has the most so far, at least since 2017 until now.
