Impressive comeback from City - but what was the Spurs team doing? They had a defensively strong lineup on the pitch, they should have done so much better after going 2-0 up before the half time.
City haven't lost any of their last 5 league games in which they were trailing by 2 goals - they won 3 and drew 2 of them. Tells a lot about their mentality.

I almost almost made money from my first 4-3-free win and still nothing to celebrate 2023 yet. Inspired by so many big bets from people I decided to go for higher odds than usual. Why did I think Tottenham could win??
The worst is I got frustrated and ended up losing even more in casino Blackjack lol

That's literally Tottenham being 2 goals up just within less than 4 minutes, I could have said I saw this coming and now I guess I couldn't have been more right about my prediction of both teams to score and Tottenham not to lose the game, now that's even Guardiola can come up with a plan to get at least one goal as well.

I thought the same and got to sleep.When I woke up today morning and check the result of 4-2 I could not believe my eyes,how can a team like Tottenham which was leading 0-2 concede 4 goals in a single half of the game,I guess it is the Manchester City that has waken up now and that is good for the Premier League.
I had two bets on this game,Manchester City to win and both teams to score and I am glad I won both bets from a single game like this one.

It's already becoming the worst season for me because I don't want City to retain the league and I despise seeing Arsenal or Manchester United win a trophy. What options do I now have? Hah
Personally, I'd much rather Arsenal out of the three. However, if you support another London based club I can see why you wouldn't want that. City probably is the next best option, but I'm really not a fan of them considering how they got where they are. Unfortunately, Liverpool could be taken over by a similar process. Hopefully not. Not sure if United will pull it off, I'd be more comfortable predicting a draw, which I do believe that's what I put in superbru. I've missed too many weeks to compete in the tournament now though, so I'm having a little bit of fun with my wild predictions.
Arsenal is in the best position currently,as far as we see they cannot be stopped. Man City o most slipped again today but their winning mentality kicks in again and Arsenal will have serious trouble keep the first place . Man City and Arsenal are the main favorites for the title i dont see Man Utd or anyone else having a chance in the end for the title.

What to say about the match.... It was a match?
For me were only moments, a burst of two minutes for Totenham, and when we can expect a good defensive play and good counterattacks nothing of this happens, another burst of goals but this time for City and GG.
Totenhamm needs to wake up, you cant blow up a two goal diference so easy, and for me Loris dont come back good after WC, the other day against Arsenal first goal, and today the first one of Mahrez.... come on man, the first pole its ALWAYS from the goalkeeper.

I actually think Man Utd could derail Arsenal this weekend, despite what I've said previously about Arsenal running away with it. United just seem to be the thorn in everyone's back this season, and they could pull an upset here. Arsenal also have a history of falling off the wagon a little after the Christmas period. I don't think that's going to happen, but I do think there will be unexpected results, and this game is on top of my list.
I'd still be somewhat confident in the prediction of Arsenal winning the league though.

Yeah Arsenal are know for slumping at the end of every season; if Manchester United take 3 points away from them this weekend, pressure will mount in the team and they will begin to drop points. At this point, Arsenal fans can only dream and hope that no injuries occur; it will be an interesting title race between them, Manchester United, and Manchester City.

Aaaand it's all gone in 15 minutes or so. Kulusevski's proving Spurs need him in the team, first half actually powered and steamed over City like paper, but now they've flipped their tune and played a crap second half. Turning off now after City lead... thought I had a really nice 9/1 bet on Spurs booked but it's all gone to water now heh.
Who knows, 2 more goals before the game ends? I'll wake up tomorrow and find out.
I thought Man City were the dumb team, but it turns out that Tottenham are actually much more dumber than City themselves, at least City and Pep were able to escape this humiliation, It sure would have put additional dent on their supposed title chase, but I guess the fixture against Arsenal in few weeks will probably settle that issue. It was a complete turnaround, so It's deserving at the end of the day, right ?

Mid-table teams do occasionally struggle, but because all they do is move up and down the mid table without competing for any trophies, it can be difficult to notice. Right now, Leicester and Everton are struggling, but no one is paying attention to them because everyone is focused on Liverpool and Chelsea's recent performances.
In any case, when the big boys struggle, it gives the smaller teams a chance to compete for the league, as it did in 2015 when Leicester won the league. Right now, Arsenal is at the top of the league not because they are great, but rather because other teams are having difficulties due to injuries and other factors. Having more teams than what we currently have will make the league look unprofessional and boring.
Yeah, and I guess most of the league prefers the extra competitiveness the injuries brings. Although, Everton have been struggling I don't think that's because of injuries, but because of the personal they have at their disposable. They lost their best player last season, and they were always going to struggle.

As for Leicester I haven't really been paying attention to their injury record, but they've been rather awful for a while now. Could be due to injuries though. I just know their old faithful between the sticks was keeping them afloat in past seasons, and obviously the decline of Vardy was never going to help them.
Liecester has more problems than the other struggling teams because they have been selling their best players every year without proper replacement, the board is no longer investing, and the club has had to rely on 36-year-old Vardy for the past four seasons now without any good backup, they sold Fofana a few days into the season without replacement until now, and Ndidi has had to play CB and DM to cover the space left by Fofana and some of the injured players. For some time now, fans have been protesting and holding banners against the
board and the coach.
wait.... City losing to Totteham? this is my shitest week in the pool, from top 10 to God knows where... hahah

I am watching the game and I must say it is not that entertaining considering that are playing teams with a big name in the Premier League,it looks like some bottom table standing teams are playing and not Manchester City the closest title contender.I hope this changes in the second half.
This should change though otherwise City is going to lose another 3 points. Kinda interesting that somehow Tottenham managed to score two goals on 45th minutes and lead the halftime. Pep is definitely going to be so furious about this in their locker room, kinda interesting to see how City will turn this out in the 2nd half lol

Was a great title challenge by Man Utd (for the whole 4 days they were in it 
).
I think Arsenal are going to roll over them on the weekend, I hope so any way. There was too much chest thumping from Man Utd fans & media guys. Let’s have them put back in their box where they belong
I don't think anybody will roll over this United squad, they clicked together and they are defending impressively. United was always the club that plays easier when other club is dominating possession and they can counter attack, so Arsenal is arguably quite good match up for them. When I say always I am talking about last couple of years not that Ferguson machine that won everything. ).I think Arsenal are going to roll over them on the weekend, I hope so any way. There was too much chest thumping from Man Utd fans & media guys. Let’s have them put back in their box where they belong
City - Spurs tonight could be a good game and I am thinking City draught stops tonight. Spurs have been quite poor in defense this season and I don't see a way how City doesn't score at least a couple of goals tonight.
With De Bruyne being dropped to the bench by Pep, I really don't know what to expect of the team to be honest, not even Foden, Cancelo or Bernardo Silva makes the starting lineup, So whatever reservations I initially had of this fixture is already subdued by Pep's choice of selection. So now I'm pretty much opened to both teams to score and Tottenham to not lose the game 🙂
I dont understand what is happening with Guardiolas choice in this match. 5 main players have been benched that are always playing. I think i never seen De Bruyne on the bench at City and this is shocking to me. I hope they win 2-1 but so far goalless.
What is more dangerous than a goalless game is the fact that both teams never hit a shot at goal while Manchester City slowly is taking control of the game with 7 corners already done for them.It looks like Tottenham has come here to defend and to hope for any good counter attack possibilities as even them has 0 shots on goal so far.

Despite the absence of some key players, I expect Manchester City to come out victorious with a scoreline of 3-1. They have a strong squad and their attacking prowess is undeniable. Tottenham will put up a good fight, but City's defense should be able to hold them off. It should be an exciting match for all fans to watch.

But we still have to give Arteta some credit tho. He did assemble a decent squad over three seasons with a meager budget. It's not great but it is enough to beat teams that are supposed to be great. And they're on their way to win the league.
I'm not discrediting Arteta, but I'm simply stating the fact that,he has done a good job over the years, from #ArtetaOut to Arteta leading these lots to their first league title in two decades. I'm not taking this low transfer budget excuses because Arsenal has been spending on their first priorities, just like other clubs. The only coach who has impressed me the most is the bald man ETH, who took over a bad team and turned it into a title contender in a short period of time.
Anyway, what do you guys think of Newcastle to score a goal first vs Crystal Palace at 1.68 as a parlay piece... Should I just go Newcastle ML at 1.90?
first goal is risky i would rather go for Newcastle @1.90FT Jump to:
