Liverpool are finally winning a game in the EPL after 4-game losing streak. They are defeating a weak opponent Sheffield but it will still help boost their morale before the next matches I think. After Chelsea-Manchester Utd ended 0-0, they will also decrease the point difference with Chelsea to 1.

So now Liverpool is ready to compete with the top 4 teams Liverpool, Chelsea and West Ham will be hunting for points to stay safe in the UEFA zone
Unfortunately Tottenham and Arsenal cannot compete yet, of course it will be very interesting to see these strong teams compete with each other.


But looking at Liverpool’s poor form overall lately and how the next 5 matches out of 6 are somewhat tough, it’s gonna be sketchy...  And I’ve been saying this, player fatigue is a thing.  Esp how Klopp’s squads play.  Most of his squad has been with him since he got there.  I think LFC should be active during the summer transfer window to sell some players and get new faces in to freshen up the squad.

I'd say it was a closely contested contest between both sides. Hard to say which side deserves to win.

It wasnt close at all. I gotta admit that Chelsea was better in that match and with Cavani being injured, its even harder for Manchester United to keep up with Chelsea. Its actually a relieve that the match ended up with a draw, getting only 1 point makes it even harder for United to catch up with City but Chelsea could have gotten 3 points today

I also agree with you. Chelsea made a greater effort and had better statistics compared to Manchester Utd. I was also surprised that how they couldn't score a goal and we didn't even see any goal in a match like this. This is Chelsea's 2nd consecutive draw and their next match will be vs Liverpool away. It will be another interesting match.

Willian [best game in an Arsenal shirt] and Xhaka [apar from the mistake that leads to the early goal, he bossed the midfield] deserve credits as well.

Suppose about time Willian earns his wages. I did watch him play recently too though and he was one of the better players on the field but I can never really be convinced about the squad overall until I see that they clear out their discipline issues.

All the same, credit where it's due, as you say.

As for today's game, I'm expecting the visitors [Southampton] to lose against Everton [both teams to score].

Toffees are the clear favourites here for sure but even with all the injuries, I'm counting on Saints to put up a real fight. A Minamino/Ings goal apiece maybe or am I dreaming? 4/1 is too attractive for me to resists, is all I'm saying;)

I think Man United should have received a penalty for Hudson-Odoi's handball in the penalty area but unfortunately, the referee thought the incident was not a clear handball.

What did you watch man! the incident was reviewed several times and that should have been a foul against Greenwood for trying to pull Odoi's hand to the ball but unfortunately, his hands touch the ball first before Odoi's. Manutd spent the whole time looking for a silly penalty as usual. This Tuchel Chelsea side are so solid they don't lose the ball for more than 1 min, it was a balanced game though Chelsea played most of the game in the united 18 yards box but couldn't penetrate

Agreed. Chelsea was the better team out there. Mount and Ziyech gave the Man Utd defensive duo of Maguire & Lindelof a run for their money. But it's worth noting that Man Utd didn't have a lot of attacking options on their hands due to injury. Cavani would've filled in really well because Rashford was totally hidden from match. Bruno too.

It seems that Solksjaer chose to use a strategy like the one against Sociedad (when they won 0-4 at Sociedad Stadium), so they prefer to play defensively and wait for the moment to make a quick counterattack. I think Man United should have received a penalty for Hudson-Odoi's handball in the penalty area but unfortunately, the referee thought the incident was not a clear handball.

1 point earned by Man United is a pretty decent result and they should also thank Arsenal because Leicester has the chance to take 2nd place, but Arsenal has thwarted it.

Manchester United has improved a lot this season, without a doubt, defensively receiving fewer goals and offensively, its sources are multiple and agreed,
but !! When you play against the top England and only score one goal, it was in the Tottenham disaster, which the team lost by six and did not achieve any victory over them. Or a wrong strategy that must be changed by not exaggerating defense and relying on apostates !! Winning over the big6 is only one who develops victory mentally and gives him the confidence that is currently lost in front of them.

Becoming the champions (which seems not so possible  Grin) or not, Manchester Utd will still end this season with a great result for sure. They are having one of their best seasons for a long time. I think they will end the league as the 2nd but I really would like them to be the champions this season. I have a so big respect for City's marvelous performance also.  Grin  Otherwise, my favorite was Man Utd.

The absence of Maddison should have been affective on their poor performance but still this is a very unexpected result.
Yes, it did but they were missing 5 more players [AFAIK] and Barnes midgame injury contributed to their lack of creativity.

Yeah and I was saying earlier how an over-reliance on Auba would be detrimental, only for Luiz to pop up, Pepe too, plus that penalty.
Willian [best game in an Arsenal shirt] and Xhaka [apar from the mistake that leads to the early goal, he bossed the midfield] deserve credits as well.

They seem to be on top of there game plan at the moment, after there 3-0 win in the Uefa Europa.
I believe it was 3-2 Wink

Arteta with Arsenal is doing really magical things!
Honestly, it could've been a different story if Leicester didn't have to deal with a lot of injured players [having said that, I liked the tempo that Arsenal kept trying until the end].

As for today's game, I'm expecting the visitors [Southampton] to lose against Everton [both teams to score].

Not your keys, not your coins!
Reality is that Mourinho is not a bad coach, we have seen him being a good coach in other teams, we all know he is a great coach when it comes to X's and O's and how he builds his strategy around the team he has. However I believe he is not the best coach in the world when it comes to human interactions, and that is why Tottenham is not doing good at all.
Mourinho is one of the greatest coaches in history and in current generation, he is among the top coaches together with Pep Guardiola, Juegren Klopp and Zinedine Zidane. Tuchel, Pochettino are far behind these three coaches. Others are from previous generation as Ancelotti.

It would be an important season for Mourinho. If he can keep his position and stars of the club, the next season will be the one to hunt for some trophies. Bale is probably back after many seasons under the silent punishment of Zidane in Bernabeu. If Mourinho and Bale can stay in the club, and if Kane, Son won't leave, they will all improve the quality of Spurs a lot.

Bale has the best period in latest few seasons and I think he is very enjoying the time in Spurs.

No goals today at Stamford Bridge .
Chelsea 4rth consecutive clean sheet they alsolooked a lot for victory and was the closest to scoring had it not been for De Gea's brilliance today .

At the end this results serves the best for Manchester City securing the EPL.
IT is ending soon with the Premier League trophy and cup for Manchester City. 1 draw, 1 point only makes the race is more out of hands for Manchester United.

It's a shame for such big teams to not be able to score one single goal in 90 minutes, they should get some penalties for that, like -1 point. Manchester United doesn't deserve anymore to win the championship, third draw in their last 5 matches, they are obviously just playing to conserve their 2nd place, shame on them, I hope they'll lose it at the end. Angry
They are back to what they usually show before the sudden dance to the top of table. Now, they are back to what they are struggling under Solskajer management. I will wait for what the club show in the next season. Will other clubs allow Bruno Fernades to have open space to play and help Manchester United in his third season in Premier League? I am guessing not.

Unfortunately Tottenham and Arsenal cannot compete yet, of course it will be very interesting to see these strong teams compete with each other.
The crisis in the Liverpool team began to drag on very much and could lead to sad consequences both in the standings and in the financial part, because it is no secret that the income from the Champions League makes up a significant part of the budgets of such clubs. Moreover, it is worth considering the situation with television rights, whose revenues have even begun to fall in recent years.

Is that really the main problem? because I see other teams don't have the same problem right? and they've played pretty well so far like Man United which continues to improve in every game, but ok each team may have different finances however this sounds sad, financial problems can affect the performance of a player.

I'm happy we won today after going through so much upsets over the last couple of games in the PL this season. At this point, we would be good with just UCL qualification for next season's campaign.

Liverpool are finally winning a game in the EPL after 4-game losing streak.

As expected against Sheffield , almost every team in EPL will most likely win against them.

I'd say it was a closely contested contest between both sides. Hard to say which side deserves to win.

Only 2 wins out of the last 5 matches, is nowhere close to magical stuff.

Absolutely disappointed with Chelsea - Manchester United.. with not many chances.. not a good football, both teams satisfied with draw.. but, on the other hand, such a nice games between Tottenham - Burnley and Leicester - Arsenal. Such an amazing matches with nice tempo. Bale finally started to play well and motivated. Arteta with Arsenal is doing really magical things!

Despite the fact that the match ended in a draw, I did enjoy watching a match. Man Utd and Chelsea played some good football, especially Chelsea.  Talking about goals, Reece James came very close to putting Chelsea 1-0 up earlier in the second half after replacing Odoi. Also Man Utd was denied a possible penalty on Odoi too. Considering it was goalless both home and away, I'd say it was a closely contested contest between both sides. Hard to say which side deserves to win.

It turned out to be an impressing match of the week @Chelsea Vs Manchester United after dragging themselves to a draw. No doubt both fans were okay with this result as they shared points on a goal less draw.

It is true that the draw results can be accepted by supporters of both teams, but for me it is quite tedious for both teams to not score a single goal.
Even though I imagined that many goals would be created, and I was a little disappointed because my prediction turned out to be wrong, but maybe
this is what the two coaches are aiming for. Because if we look at the statistics of Chelsea and Manchester United, both of them are balanced, it seems
that both teams want to play it safe. Even though I was disappointed and had to suffer a loss because I bet on Chelsea's victory, I have to admit that
a draw result is the best for both teams.

If Chelsea can keep up this pace in defense so they won't concede any goals , they might have a long run in UCL and not a lot of people are thinking about this right now but I think Chelsea will be the "nice" surprise of the competition that could reach semi-finals ( where it will probably gonna be defeated ). Today's game were a force of who can control the middle of the pitch and unfortunately the fought for this for 90 minutes  Grin Grin that kinda ruined the show of a derby.

Now it's time for Liverpool to make a draw ? So far it seems so but I think the 2nd half will bring 2+ goals.
