Yes, I also believe more in Liverpool than Manchester United, even though Liverpool is playing as an away team, their chances of winning are greater than Manchester United's. So far, Liverpool has won 2 matches since the beginning of this season, while Manchester United has experienced 1 defeat against Brighton, so I'm not sure Manchester United can beat Liverpool. I think a fair result for both of them is to get a draw like last season in the Premier League match in the 2 meetings, both of them were only able to get a draw 0:0 at Liverpool's home and 2:2 at Manchester United's home.

There is no significant change in Liverpool's game, they are still solid, I agree with you that Liverpool's new coach still has a positive impact and Liverpool's game also still applies the tactics played by Klopp, so I hope they remain consistent with their game until the end of the season to tighten the hunt for the Premier League title this season, regarding Man United for this season they play no changes whatsoever even though there are many new players there, but all of that has no impact on their game pattern and even bad results always befall them.

Yes, Arteta of course doesn't want to continue being the first ranked guard in the Premier League. The reason is that so far Arsenal have almost won the Premier League twice, but unfortunately Arsenal always fail at the end of the season. Like the previous season, Arsenal is only 2 points away from Manchester City who are at the top of the Premier League standings. So with that, Arteta will definitely be very serious this season, because it wouldn't be funny if, for example, this season Arsenal's fate returns to the same as previous seasons. So Arteta's move to bring in Mikel Merino will certainly make Arsenal better this season.

Apart from that, Arsenal's current weakness lies only in the consistency of their performance. The reason is, the biggest reason Arsenal failed to become champions in the last two seasons was because their performance always declined towards the end of the season. That's why, Arsenal has always failed in the last two seasons. So in essence, Arteta has to be aware of his team's weaknesses and has to change them so that this doesn't happen again this season. Maybe apart from training physical strength and strategy, Arteta must also be able to train the mentality of his team to make them stronger. Because mentality also has a big influence on the performance of the players. For this reason, Arteta must also be able to strengthen his players' mentality. And speaking of Mikel Merino, it is true that he also played for Newcastle one season and scored 1 goal. So with this, of course the English league is no longer something foreign to Mikel.

So true. The real problem is not Pochettino and that is very clear. In fact, last season Pochettino actually made quite a big contribution because he was able to bring Chelsea to finish in 6th place. It was not an easy job after in the previous year Chelsea were only able to finish in 12th place. But Pochettino came and he built the squad back to be better. Finishing in 6th place is proof that Pochettino is actually a very reliable coach. And if he had more time at Chelsea then I'm sure this season Chelsea could develop even better. But unfortunately he was only at Chelsea for one season. Well, I hope the club owner doesn't make a hasty decision again with the current coach. because even a big team like Arsenal was in decline when Arteta first arrived. And Arteta actually managed to improve Arsenal after several seasons of being trusted at the club.

Every player of Liverpool is capable of performing well but this same player Liverpool played in the previous season too but they could not maintain that consistency towards the end. The point here is that Liverpool are short on substitutes and as a result, if any of the players you mentioned get injured, their performance will be down. In order for a team to continue its performance, it is not only about strengthening the starting XI, but they also need to have alternative thinking so that when a key player is injured, any player can be substituted. Since they did a little better last season, they should have bought some quality players this season so that their team performance could have been better this season.

Many bosses don't let their coaches freedom of player choice in transfer market and in 11-chosen players for each match, it's a problem but is not a biggest issue. A bigger or biggest issue in Chelsea is their club owner, a new one after Abramovich, does not give a good coach enough time to build up squad and work with players enough to gain success. If Pochettino has been given more time, like one or two more seasons, the coach would have gain bigger success with Chelsea.

I disagree that Lampard built up good squad that was inherited by Tuchel. In fact Lampard has very short time in Chelsea and Tuchel simply was good with tactics and he also was lucky in that season to win Champions League with them.

Right. Problems at Chelsea FC are not just because of coaches especially Pochettino. He is being blamed unfairly. Real issue is with owner who does not let coaches make their own decisions about players. This has caused problems with team and led to bad signings.

Tuchel was successful because he had good team built by Lampard and got support from Abramovich. He had freedom to make important decisions. Pochettino on the other hand took over team without leaders and had less freedom to make decisions. And this is right that current board is causing problems not Pochettino. They are making bad choices that will hurt club in the future.

Liverpool kicked off the Arne Slot era very well with back to back wins against newly promoted side Ipswich and the bees Brentford United who also lost last weekend. Manchester United did poorly last season but we all saw how they dealt with Liverpool during the FA Cup Semi finals and also holding Liverpool down to a fulltime draw last season. Manchester United might have lost to Brighton last weekend but this game would be obviously world war 3. Getting three points against Manchester United who wants to Improve and impress the fans would be difficult, this is not the friendly games and pre-season on GOD. I don't even know what personal records Erik Ten Hag has with Arne Slot but we'll see about that. Mo Salah has been one player scoring Manchester United whenever he faced them, let's see if he'll do the same this season.
Gunners could easily get things done with Brighton, they have won back to back games but that don't mean shit. Arsenal would triumph though I know how tough Brighton use be for Arsenal with Graham Potter in charge.

West Ham United improved their defenders. Getting pass two goals against the hammers would be difficult.

Of course we need to appreciate Chelsea's achievements too.
However, the consistency of a club is very necessary and this is very important. We are talking about this match. And it will be a continuous homework for Maresca to make the entire squad play well in every match. And this has become his job.

if I still believe more if Liverpool will win, or at worst draw. Although Slot is a new coach in Liverpool, but so far, he has been able to make optimal tactics too. Also, the Liverpool lineup has not changed much, so basically, the team is still solid as before. While Man United, we know they have more homework compared to Liverpool even though they have a coach who is much longer together.

No one is happy with the performance of Team Chelsea because they are not doing good at the defense line and have some major flaws which cause them a lot of problems in upcoming matches with the big teams.
After the last game, we expect that the team will get its momentum and perform well consistently in the upcoming games also continuing the winning streak.

Sure. Chelsea performance will be different this season; it is already showing that their performance has improved significantly compared to last season's performance, seeing that they beat Wolves to the extent no one even expected but unfortunately they did it. With the look of things, they will surely do well this season, even though I know that they still need to put in more effort and dominate their matches so they can go higher, although I know that there must be some clubs that are going to be a very big challenge for them to win. 


Chelsea's performance was good against Wolves. And for the fact that you said they may perform badly in some matches, this is because they meet with a team that is stronger and in better form than them. It will be good if Chelsea keep to this performance because it favours them this time around. However, it’ll be kind of difficult for them to perform the same way as this. All I can say is that they should keep on doing good and dominate their matches so people who see their good performances will be greater than those who are talking that they are wrong. 

The whole Chelsea situation was something I had before actually ascribed to been caused by the coaches but aside potter who also has little to no share of blame, none of the other coaches actually has to been most especially Pochettino. The current owner which is Bohely doesn’t gives his coach the freedom to actually sign or scout their own players. The departures too aren’t caused by the coaches too but by the new Board at Chelsea. Tuchel had the luxury to go that far with a Chelsea team that Lampard build but was not experienced to win using them. I remembered the Chelsea triumph in the champion league which was won by the same team built by Lampard just that Tuchel had more experience.

Tuchel also had the luxury of working with Abrahamovic in his first year and that’s why he had so much success in the team. Bohely era wouldn’t have favored him that much because he was the main authority at Chelsea then and made players calls for Those that fits its pattern. The system wasn’t the same for Pochettino, in fact much worse he earned a team from his predecessor without leader and that affected the dressing room. So I don’t think Pochettino screwed the club, rather it is the current board that is trying to simply ruin the club he owns with unnecessary signings

Yes, that's right. Liverpool is still strong at the moment because Arne Slot's squad has inherited a pretty good legacy from Klopp with the foundation that Klopp has built, Arne Slot just has to continue, and make some changes so that his strategy runs well. The difference between Liverpool in the Klopp era and Liverpool in the Arne Slot era. In the Klopp era, they must be equipped with many players who have perfect physique because his tactics are draining. However, in the Arne Slot era so far, Liverpool has played calmly but occasionally their opponents are off guard they will kill, and Slot knows Liverpool's weakness is the storm of injuries. Therefore, he will protect his players from injury, this was seen when playing against Brenford, he withdrew all his key players to face Man United.

What is clear is that the EPL competition this season will be even hotter, apart from the competition between Liverpool, Man City, and Arsenal. However, there are also other teams that will make surprises such as Chelsea who are now starting to play brilliantly and Spurs, Brighton as dark horses who must also be watched out for.

You are saying this because you saw the performance of these teams in the last season. Arsenal is a good team because of having Arteta in this team and they have got good players too to help this team during this season but still, Arteta is not experienced like Guardiola and maybe that's why still Manchester CIty has more chances.
But still, we didn't see a lot from Liverpool and there is the chance to see Liverpool winning the title even with their coach Slot.

Too much dissatisfaction has made many Chelsea fans to be in disbelief that they are getting better Jsut because they gave Wolf a warming goals. It's what it's but I'm not too impressed yet even though the performance was super and exciting, they were giving me Manchester City last season vybes but City were hot from beginning of the season till the end of the season but Chelsea won match and they are saying they are going to dominate the table, and I ask how?

Lampard and Pochettino screw that club and the way they made the transfers were horrible that's why they weren't getting the result needed. Only an an experienced coach can guide teams like that which is Why Tuchel used some unique players in his prime in Chelsea but Pochettino and Graham sold all of them for a penny to Saudi Arabian clubs.

Slot just continues the squad that has been built by Jurgen Klopp and the results are in line with everyone's expectations. This coach is quite reliable. Not many changes occurred in the Liverpool squad. And there isn't even much movement in the transfer market this time. This makes it easier for Slot to adapt quickly and only needs to make a few small adjustments at Liverpool. And Liverpool's players were also able to immediately adapt to their new coach because there weren't many changes. Klopp has indeed inherited a good squad, and there is no need for major changes to the squad that Klopp has built apart from preparing the young generation for the long term of this club.

I think the fixture between Liverpool and Manchester United is coming too early for a new coach like Slot. When you look at the Manchester United team and the Liverpool team, you will understand that the Liverpool team is more formidable than Manchester United. But in this type of meeting happening on Sunday, I am not confident that Liverpool can win Manchester United.

We have always known that Manchester United Liverpool meetings has been so thrilling. In fact, if not for the 7-0 win that Liverpool got against Manchester United last season, Manchester United has always looked better in any meeting with Liverpool. I strongly believe that Liverpool cannot win Manchester United in this fixture. It is a wrong week for Liverpool.

I just hope Chelsea's performance will keep going like this. For some seasons now, Chelsea haven’t been consistent, but since their start this season is not really bad, let’s see how it’s going to be. They tried in their first match against Manchester City, even as they lost, and they performed incredibly well against Wolves. Let’s just see how their performance in subsequent matches will be. I just hope this current season will be better than last season.

We shouldn’t be completely happy with Chelsea's performance yet, let’s just wait for a few matches to be played. Even though I can see some great improvement in Chelsea's performance, I just want the season to start fully before I will praise them.

Liverpool's prospects are unclear precisely because they have changed the coach and it is not clear how much he can influence the team. I think we should wait at least ten rounds to understand who can enter the group of leaders who will fight for the championship, if Liverpool falls behind this group by that time, then it is unlikely that anyone will expect them to be able to get close to City. So far, Liverpool is doing well and it seems that Slot is doing his job well.

Yes, these 3 teams will compete with each other for the title and indeed at the moment Manchester City looks more aggressive so Arsenal and Liverpool need to make more efforts to stay close to Manchester City, my hope is still the same as last season I want to see another team win the title not Manchester City. Next week Liverpool will play away against Manchester United well, here Slots need to prepare the right strategy because their opponents are not a weak team and Liverpool can't  miss a single match.

Brighton are currently attracting attention after their good performance in the last 2 matches, Danny Welbeck as a mainstay player in the attacking line helped Brighton collect 6 points but Brighton have a challenge when they face Arsenal in their next match, I don't know what Brighton will do when they come as the away team Meanwhile Arsenal are in top form and have the ambition to catch up with Manchester City. One point will be very important for Brighton in this match or they may lose points.
