Man said Haaland is a beats, Lol  Stop watching YouTube, mate!! Halaand is only slightly taller than Lukaku and lacks physical abilities. Chelsea flop Michy Batshuayi was a beast in Dotmund during his loan term, scoring seven goals in nine league games, but he couldn't hold the ball in the Premier League. Chelsea demanded and received a world-class striker. Halaaad is not a world-class striker, but he is a talented youngster who can score goals with huge market price.

Man said Haaland is more skillful and faster than Lukaku that's an insult to Beguim goat. Lukakau has proven himself In EPL (114 goals) Serie A ( 49 goals) National team (78 goals)


Chelsea play 433 and Werner will always operate from the Wing so no problem at all.

In three days, we are going to see a huge game which is between Manchester City and Arsenal. Manchester City got a really satisfying win against Norwich the last time (5-0). They are in-form now. And I see in the head-to-head games that Manchester City have a really good dominance against Arsenal. In their last 5 head-to-head games, City defeated them 4 times. Now, I think that it is going to be an easy game for City as Arsenal are still having big in-team problems.

Nah, I disagree. Haaland is a beast, he's impossible to guard because he is either faster or stronger than most defenders and also uses space a lot better than Lukaku.
I watched Lukaku since his Anderlecht days and I really do like him, I just feel that he's more of a goalscorer than a complete striker you can use to build attacks too.

Chelsea's problem isn't Lukaku - it's Lukaku and Werner together. Both are players that are not really known for their combining skills and I feel that Werner would work better with a striker like Kane or Haaland and that Lukaku would work better with a player like Sterling or Son.

No player is unstoppable; all it takes is a few techniques and confidence to stop a physically strong player. Adama of Wolves has a bigger muscular body and pace than Lukaku, but he is being taken down week in and week out. Lukaku vs Van will be a match made in heaven; let's see how it goes. However, liverpool should be wary of other Chelsea attacking players; Lukaku is a target man who creates space for other Chelsea attacking players


Lukàku is far superior to Haaland; he has proven himself in various leagues; he is currently the Beguim all-time scorer; he is more skilled and faster than Halaand; and, unlike Halaand, he plays with both feet. Do not be fooled by the hype surrounding Halaad; Lukaku was a beast with Anderlecht when he was young. Bundesliga is not one of my favorite leagues.

Lukaku after two years in Serie A has a better body and he is stronger, faster than the time he was in Manchester United. He can not beat all defenders with his physical strength but most of defenders struggle to constrain him.

Bonucci and Chiellini constrained Lukaku totally in Euro and they don't have better strength than LuKaku. Defenders need to have both strength, experience and skills to constrain Lukaku

As I said, Van Dijik has full ability to constrain Lukaku but because he just returns recently after a serious injury, he needs more support from his mates.

There isn't a big deal in curtailing Lukaku once he isn't given free space definitely his chances of scoring will be limited, in their match against Arsenal, Saka couldn't cover for  Kieran Tierney at left back side thus allowed James free space to cross to the centre forward for Lukaku to score, once Liverpool was able to block those crossing definitelyVan Dink will do his job by stopping Lukaku, although the match between Chelsea and Liverpool will be a balance game non of the two teams is superior to each other, possibly they play a draw.

Van Dijik only returns after his injury. Will he be able to constrain Lukaku, face to face? I think he will need supports from other mates in Liverpool defense system and I believe it is exactly what Klopp will request his players do.

It is risky and like gamble if Klopp only assign Van Dink to follow and constrain Lukaku. I don't understand you point about Haaland. I think Haaland can be a bit more better than LuKaku with his passing skills. He evolves in the new seasons but Lukaku is not bad in my opinion.

The combination of Lukaku, Kai and Werner looks to be good.

Agreed, Lukaku vs Van Dijk will be an amazing battle to watch. I think that Van Dijk is physically strong enough to stop him both in air and on the ground and overall I still feel Liverpool is a better team when they have their strongest team at their disposal.

I would have been a lot more scared of Chelsea if they brought Haaland, Lukaku is a beast but players like Werner and Havertz would have a better chemistry and offensive flow with a player who's a bit more technical than Lukaku. Him and Werner combining - that will be a major issue for Chelsea.

West Ham's success at the top of the Premier League table cant be considered to last much longer. Meanwhile look at which opponents they managed to beat to get 6 points now and it will be different when West Ham will play Manchester City, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool, Leicester City and Tottenham in the future. If West Ham beat all the teams I mentioned, yes they will be there for a long time. But if they don't, they will return to the top 10. Didn't you see it in the previous season?

The West Ham team is trying to make them very stable. And it looks like they have been able to build a stable team this season. The bonding between their forward and midfield players is very good. That is why they have managed to score 8 goals in 2 matches. The next match is against their Crystal Palace. They will win this match as usual, and I think they will be able to score more than 3 goals.

Yes, Stan Kroenke has already shown an unheard-of generosity by his standards, spending almost 150 million euros, so the club will rather be busy looking for a new coach who uses the purchased players diligently than start a new transfer company Now it is difficult to envy Arteta, because the head coach is caught between the hammer of discontent with the team's fans, who are dissatisfied with the latest results and places that the team shows and the anvil of the club's management, which seems to have allocated the requested funds to strengthen the team under the requests of the head coach and is waiting for the team's results to strengthen accordingly and should also respond to the discontent of the club's fans.

This is absolutely the game of the week in my opinion. Liverpool have a big advantage as they are going to play home. And they seem to be stronger compared to the last season. Chelse are doing great with Tuchel but they should be really careful in this match. Liverpool are one of the best teams in this league when it comes to attacking. Defenders will have a difficult job against players like Salah, Mane and Jota. I think that Chelsea won't lose this match.

That was absolutely great performance from Antonio shows for the third season in a row in the position of the outright striker is natural, which puts before us an important question, what if Antonio played as a 9 striker since the beginning of his career, a player who possesses all the ingredients of the outright 9 striker from the power to shoot and the ability to finish, strong physique and speed And a good positioning inside the box, all factors that contributed to his influencing the striker’s position, in addition to his never losing the sense of creating opportunities or goals, though.
He played among them in this position. They were his best seasons in terms of the scoring contribution in the Premier League, and he contributed from that time to the league until now in 33 goals, scored 23 and made 10, and what is impressive is that even the rates of his creation of key passes and the opportunities achieved are also greater in the center of the striker!
Antonio today broke the historical scoring record for West Ham and became the Hammers’ historical scorer with 49 goals.
A simple step from center to center changed everything. The issue is not related to Antonio only, but it is related to dozens and hundreds of other examples of players playing in positions where they do not perform the best thing they have, and their career may reach its end. without making the best possible use of their abilities. 

You can’t talk about overhauling a club at this period of time. Firstly Arsenal is facing some financial issues due to the pandemic. And overhauling the squad, it’s just not possible. You signed some players and gave them a long number of years on their contract, until their contract expires, they can’t leave the club.  Arsenal has the philosophy of getting young players so they can grow into superstars so they can turn the team around. But I think it’s high time, they let this idea die. Clubs are becoming very competitive in the Transfer market now and getting more experienced players so as to be contenders in the league.

i agree that the coach is not the main problem for arsenal right now although i think arteta has minimal experience in coaching, but i think arsenal now need to completely overhaul their squad and have to leave their old habit of recruiting young players, i think arsenal need to follow the example some other teams who really prefer to buy players who already have experience and also a strong winning mentality and this is what Arsenal should do in order to be able to compete to become champions of the English league

It’s not about hiring a new manager or something. The Management would want to put into consideration hiring a high profile manager involves a lot of money. So they’re okay with paying less to any manger and care less about the results that comes with it. They’re more experienced and tactical Managers around that could’ve taken this club to a different level and make them contenders of both European and Domestic trophies. Considering Antonio Conte's style of play, I don’t think it’ll suit the caliber of players in the team. He plays a 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 formation. A while different philosophy and tactics that hasn’t been deploy effectively in the Arsenal team. I doubt the Board would consider giving out finds to buy players in the Transfer market when the window opens.

One of the incredible matches this week is Liverpool v Chelsea.

This is a huge match as they are both one of the favourite teams for the league title. Liverpool made a huge start by defeating Norwich (3-0) and Burnley (2-0). They have van Dijk from now on also which means they will be stronger on defending. Chelsea on the other hand started really great also by defeating C. Palace (3-0) and Arsenal (2-0). They are much stronger having Lukaku alongside them. And Tuchel's system is running like clockwork. I think that both of these clubs won't have problems on scoring in this match. And we may see a draw like 1-1 or 2-2 at the end of the match.

If the Arsenal team is to be stable, now the whole team has to be redesigned. And have to spend a lot of money together. The club is no longer in a position to spend that much money. However they can form a team of young dependents. Although they will not get good results now if they form a young dependent team, they will benefit a lot after a few seasons,

I think there are a lot of internal problems in Arsenal management. So maybe they are not able to take the players in the team as per their choice. Moreover, they need more skilled coaches. The players may not be able to adapt to coach Mikel Arteta. The Arsenal team as a team is still badly unstable.

Since last season I have been pessimistic about them. Moreover, this season they have not made many transfers of players that are quite great. I don't understand about management. Are they in money trouble or not. Therefore, to compete with other top clubs, I think it will be a little difficult, maybe even breaking into the top 10 is lucky.
As for the fans, I think if they love Arsenal so much it will be difficult, they won't leave.
