Out of their last 10 Premier League games, Manchester United have only won 2. One with Everton and one with the last in the table - Sheffield.
The 4-0 loss to Crystal Palace was an absolute humiliation. We all knew they were lacking in the offence, but their defence was equally bad today. It could've been 5-0 if not for the off-the-post shot.
It's a shame, because they had a real chance of fighting for the 5th place, given Tottenham have lost a lot of points lately, but Man United have wasted that chance.
They can still get a spot in the Europa League next season if they somehow manage to defeat Man City in the FA Cup final, so not all is yet lost for them.
It’s been a run of bad games for Man United as they have been able to  manage just 2 wins in their last 10 games. This is not really the standard of a club like Manchester United as they’re not known for this kind of record. The Manchester united i kmow of should be very capable of handling Palace despite the injuries.

 ⁠I think this shows how weak their midfield and defense line is as they’re not able to keep the balls from entering. At this point, i don’t think Onana is to blame anymore as you can see him still making some fine saves despite the bad defense line he’s having which makes him fail in keeping cleansheet. With this kind of run, I don’t think using the league to get to Europe is possible for them.

 Their only hope of being in Europe will be winning the FA Cup against City as that’s the only wyy for them to be able to get to UEL next seaon, other than that nothing for them. But when you look at that match, you can only imagine what are United chances of defeating their neighbors. Well, I feel the season is over for them and they’ll probably just remain in Engalnd next season if it will help them be able to focus more on the league and at least get something off the competition.

Ten Hag continues to extend his current record at United but unfortunately the record is not a record to be proud of by Manchester United and fans, so far Manchester United have conceded 81 goals which is the highest number in club history, besides that Ten Hag managed to create new history for Manchester United by losing 13 games in one season for the first time,  isn't that a fantastic record for a club as big as Manchester united?
With all the achievements that Ten Hag has achieved now, I don't know what makes Manchester United still keep Ten Hag to this day, and did you read Ten Hag statement after the defeat to Crystal Palace?
Isn't it funny when he blames the blame for the quality of a squad he considers incapable at the moment, when we all know that most of Manchester United current players are Ten Hag signings,Isn't it funny  because he not want to admit his inability to coach Manchester United.

Since the change of coach, Crystal Palace have improved in their performance and we can see if in the match against Manchester United yesterday, Crystal Palace can excel on all fronts even though the squad they have is not as expensive as Manchester United, for now compete the zone in European competition looks like it will be a difficult competition for Manchester United because they have to compete with Newcastle and Chelsea at this time.
This season has been one ugly one for Man United fans and ETH as ETH this season has broken so many of the club’s ugly records and it’s not even looking like he’s done yet. Like WTF, after yesterday’s defeat it was added that this season has made it that the club has conceded the highest number of goals in it’s history and lost most number of games in a season, 13 games.
 
 This Kind of record is one that the fans aren’t finding pleasant and everyone is getting frustrated. Well in all of these, yes I think they shouldn’t sack him just yet as he’s achieved a feat for thr club last season and as such, you can blame injuries for the problem the club is facing mow. Yes most of the players were gotten by him but their state aren’t good as they’re not available to play, so as such I think thr club should give him more time.

 Who knows if he has a fit squad he will be able to at least contest for the league next season and the praises can get back for him. ⁠Crystal Palace have quite improved under their new coach and it’s evident in the way they bullied Man United yesterday. With the way Man United played, I don’t think they’ll be able to stand any chance in making European competition this season as their opponents aren’t any easy ine at all.

Brest was lucky even though they achieved a draw against Nantes but Lille failed to take advantage of that moment to overtake Brest in 3rd place because the difference between the two clubs was only 2 points. If Lille could beat Lyon then they could occupy the Champions League zone with 1 point more than Brest but it turned out Lille had to suffer defeat at home so they failed to overtake Brest. Lyon scored the 4th goal in the extra minute of added time with the defeat. Monaco is slightly safe in 2nd place with a difference of 4 points from Brest and 6 points from Lille with 2 more matches remaining. If Monaco wins the match against Montpellier in the next match, then they will win it is certain that Monaco will finish in second place and Brest must win the remaining matches to ensure its position in 3rd place to get a Champions League ticket next season.

Lille must win the remaining matches too so that Nice doesn't overtake him in 4th place, maybe by winning 1 more match Lille will safely be in 4th position and he will enter the Champions League qualifying round while Nice will end up in the Europa League qualifying. Lyon looks like he will continue to improve he is currently in 7th place thanks to winning the match against Lille.
 Well as the season is about to end we can see all teams gearing up as they will want to be performing in the UCL next season. In the Ligue 1, you can already term PSG as winners of the league. The main competition in this league is on who qualifies for UCL as many felt Lille will be able to overthrow Brest in 2nd but it wasn’t possible as they were mot able to get the wins in the recent matches.

 I think these losses now put Lille in tight corner and they want to remain their remaining matches to at least feature In UCL next season. Moncao are in a better position as they just need 3 points from their next match and they’ll comfortably be ready for UCL football next season. Lyon also want to try to secure an European spot but it’s not going to be an all easy fixture for the 3 teams in this tight race this season.

 ⁠I think this competition for UCL football is quite interesting but it will be more fun if this competition is taken for the league title next season. The way these clubs are taking every final match makes this league look interesting and is now catching our attention and I wish the clubs will take this competition and be able to fight for the league title next season.

PSG will playing as a host today and we all know PSG was lost from Dortmund in the first leg with final score 1-0 and if PSG want to advances to the final match then PSG have to win with 2 goals margin or more and some people predict PSG can able to do that because they are very strong in all competitions at their home but i don't think it will be so easy because Dortmund is the team who hard to beated and as a dark horses team Dortmund potentially can makes PSG gets in trouble so this match will be so tight

We all know Dortmund current position at Bundesliga is 5th place and there is possibility they will be failed to playing in this competition again next season unless Dortmund can able to gets the trophy so obviously they have to hard struggling for this match and not lost but for PSG they are dreaming Champion League trophy and they have good chances to realized it this season however regarding the outcomes of this match the bookmakers give low odds for PSG win @1.47 and seems they are very confident PSG can able to overcomes Dortmund today and looking forward to see the match result whether PSG can able to win or not
The semi finals will be one thrilling one and the match is still very much open and could go the way of any of the two teams. Dortmud have the lead and you can tell they have a strong fighting spirit and as such, you will get scared for PSG and how much chance they have against this fierce Dortmund side. PSG too are playing at home and in their home ground.

 They’re one very fierce side and with the help of their fans gearing and cheering them up they can be able to overturn the lead and get the final spot. PSG have a very fast and swift attack and at this point, you can already start imagining how they’ll be running riots against the Dortmund defense. Dortmund have their own strength too and they’re clinical with their chances and can do the big magic that could hurt PSG.

 In this year’s campaign you can see how they have been resilient in their performance and i think this should be a thing of worry for PSG. ⁠this match will be tightly contested and I think PSG will be having the win and it won’t be like the last match where they lost chances. I think Enrique will be able to use the right tactics to help this PSG side get the final spot.

I personally think Roma have no chance of qualifying for the Europa League final. The first leg was Roma's home match. I thought we would see Roma dominate at home. But Roma was defeated 2-0 in the home match. Despite Roma's home match, the match was dominated by Leverkusen's players. The second leg is Leverkusen's home match. In Leverkusen's home match, Roma will win by more than 3 goals I don't find it believable.

Leverkusen are in a very strong position this season. The team has not lost any match yet. Xabi Alonso wants to secure the title of the Bundesliga as well as the Europa League. The Europa League title is also likely to go to Leverkusen.
Of course, who wouldn’t want to take the UEL semifinals so seriously especially when he knows winning this trophy is the only hope of landing the club in Europe top flight competition season. As such you can see from the way he rested some players in the weekend match against Juventus. Although, we know they’re already about 2 goals down and will be going to Germany to do the magic but you can already imagine, how much of effort they will have to put in as a team to do the magic.

 Bayer Leverkusen will stand the better chance in this fixture especially as they will be playing in their homeground. The presence of the Leverkusen fans will be intimidating for the Roma squad to be able to overturn the victory and after the huge win by Leverkusen over the weekend, you can already imagine how much of work Roma has on their table ahead of this match.

 I think Roma and De Rossi should just shift their focus to the Serie A because they still have better chances there than this UEL. ⁠In the league they can still be able to secure qualification to UEL next season and the chances are better as comapred to the chance of them reaching the finals of the UEL. He can help them get to the UEL next season as his success level whilst at the club can evidently speak for him.

Mitrovic is on fire again. He has scored one goal against Al Ahli, and as you can see, betting on Al Hilal is the easiest option that can be taken for the rest of matches in the saudi pro league. I meant that if Al Hilal consistently wins almost all of its matches and im hoping for miracle to happen with it very soon to help hilal win king cup trophy. Castro did his job very well. The club is nearly winning the Saudi Pro League. Without a doubt, if it was ez money from Al Hilal. I strongly believe we will get another ez money by betting on the match al hilal vs nassr.

Ahli is not on the same level as the al hilal. It would be ridiculous if there were people who did not want to make money by betting on Al Hilal right now. Al Hilal is still at its peak performance. It's not even a question of whether I should pick it because al Hilal is performing even better.
Hilal will win the league trophy and the King Cup at the same time. It's fortunate that Al Hilal missed out on the AFC Champions League. I'm still betting on Al Hilal in the upcoming game over Al Nassr.
As you can see, Al Hilal has a better statistic in terms of goals conceded than Al Nassr. It will be a pathetic choice to bet on al Nassr because it will lose to al Hilal.



At this point it’s evident when one has much conviction on Al-Hilal that they will be able to deliver even when one places a bet on them as they’re a better team as compared to the other teams in the league. The way their squad is shaped is a big indication that they’re one of the sides that will always be able to produce great number of goals in the league.

 Mitrovic who is their main striker is always delivering for the club and as such, you’re sure to be confident on his ability to be able to score goals for the team. Scoring great numvber of goals is what makes one develop confidence on a team. They have a very good record whilst defending and as such you’ll be very confident in betting on them as they score more and concede less.

 ⁠This tactics is the one that’s about to make them the winners of the league this season. Well as they all say football is always full of uncertainty and as such whilst betting you shouldn’t just consider the current state of their last match but also there are other important points to consider. You can check out the inhiry records and past matches between the teams as this could help in building the morale of the other team. Well betting on football is a 50/50 chance as it’s a game and anything is bound to happen, so I suggest much carefulness whilst picking options on matches.

Dortmund only narrowly won 1 - 0 when they faced PSG in the first leg. I think PSG can still catch up where previously PSG lost to Barcelona 3 - 2, but in the second leg, PSG was able to reply easily. I don't think Dortmund is as calm as you think. Still one goal difference is not difficult for PSG, currently of course PSG only needs to learn from the failure in the first leg match where they have to look for gaps in the second leg match to be able to score lots of goals against Dortmund in order to qualify for the UCL final.

I know that it is not easy to do because Dortmund will of course fight hard to play defensively because they only need a draw. Dortmund can qualify for the UCL final, but besides that, PSG will not let the final result be a draw, of course they want to score more goals for beat the goal difference from the aggregate of the previous first leg match, at least PSG must win by a difference of two goals, for example 3 - 1 is more than enough, I'm sure both of them will score goals and Dortmund will also play out attacking rather than playing defensively because that won't save them play defense. but both will definitely score.
  PSG will be the more pressured team in this round because of the great number of stars in their squad and because of this the hopes of seeing them in the final is great and they’re unluckily a goal down. Dortmund doesn’t seem to pose much of a challenge but they can be the surprise team in the final this season too especially as they’re leading the encounter with a lone goal.

 ⁠After the PSG and Barca game, you’ll understand that it’s not fully over for psg as they can still be able to overturn the lead as it’s just a one goal lead and they have done it before. They can rely on that victory and get the resilience spirit to overturn Dortmund’s lead in the second leg. ⁠Dortmud are well composed defensively and this should be PSG major worry as they might not be able to score great goals.

 This great goals will help PSG be able to qualify sharperly for the finals rather than passing through stress of extra time. So this is going to make this semi final one thrilling one as we look forward to what the encounter holds. The chances of both team going through is really great but I think the major challenge is for PSG to be able to qualify and that will keep them pressing more on Dortmund. This will make this finals one thrilling one and one we look up to.

In my opinion, it will also be difficult for Liverpool to become champions at the end of this season because Arsenal and Manchester City will certainly not allow other teams to take their position. Yes, it's a shame that Klopp's troops can't consistently win as the end of this season approaches and now the ones who have the advantage are Pep's troops because they still have 3 games while Arsenal and Liverpool have 2 games remaining so of course that will give Manchester City a golden opportunity to come back. won a trophy this season. Yes, of course with a 5 point difference between Arsenal and Liverpool it will definitely make it difficult for Liverpool to shift Arsenal's position.

Yes, it looks like by the end of the season Liverpool will be in 3rd place and it looks like 2nd place is still like last season, namely Arsenal and in 1st place it looks like Pep's troops will be champions like last season. However, Liverpool has certainly made progress this season because winning 3rd place is certainly good progress because last season Liverpool only got 5th place.

Well yes you can say mathematically that liverpool still remain in the title race with about 3 matches to goal but logically, you will understand how impossible it is for Liverpool to get their hands on the title at this point. They made some great mistakes some 2 weeks ago and that really affected their chances of at least being able to win the league

 ⁠The race for the title gets more fierce for Man City and Arsenal and these two teams don’t seem to be slowing down for the other as they make sure they’re both able to grab all 3 points in every matches. Man City have the edge because they still have a game in hand and that could take them top of the league if they’re able to at least get the win
 ⁠
The point gap between Liverpool and Arsenal who are on top is one very big one for Liverpool to be able to overcome as it’s a gap of 5 points with about 2 matches to go and you can’t say Arsenal will lose out on the final 2 games. Well even if Arsenal should lose out, what happens to Man City.

 It’s safe to say at this point that the most Liverpool can get this season is a 3rd place finish and this is a big sign that they played better than last season and I think Klopp should leave with shoulders high. The new coach should get ready for the challenge because the epl isn’t an easy one.

Chelsea has clearly made substantial enhancements to the its performance in the game against westham. Even Mudryk plays so calmly in this game and he was so amazing even though he was not scoring, and he rarely panics when attacking West Ham and made some important build for the club. I must say that this is a significant improvement from Chelsea caused by the club have learned a lot from the previous mistake. Chelsea is even better than manchester united in term of consistency. The club only lacks a good striker but i have heard club is aiming to get osimhen. Jackson has not yet reached his peak performance level but yeah we will see a new one to come.
Chelsea needs at least one striker to significantly improve the club. and the competition will be very strict soon. Jackson and Medueke have performed admirably in this game. I like how Jackson used his brain to escape from the offside trap. He demonstrates that he has been making improvements.
Jackson's last goal, that's it. The referee thought it was offside, but a VAR check revealed Jackson was onside. That's amazing if he's been learning a lot from his recent matches.
I am confident that Chelsea can become even better than before. All of the players in the squad made significant contributions to Chelsea's performance. The club only needs to recruit a good striker.
Chelsea was always struggling when Sterling and Enzo were on the pitch.


Chelsea were able to get the needed victory against West Ham United yesterday after they had a very great performance on the pitch with all her players being able to contribute massively to the win. Mudryk was one player that caught our attention yesterday with the way he was calm while on the pitch of play and that showed a bit of improvement.

 Though I still think he can perform better and he should be able to improve faster because the whole team is already starting to improve. The club being able to go for Osimhen is a big indication that the club knows it major challenge which happens to be in the striking position. With a player like Osimhen in the club, i think The attack will grow more fierce than how they’re right now.

 Jackson had been able to improve also as he was able to navigate through the ball even though it seemed as if it wAs an offside but he was able to scale through and get the goal which helps him build his confidence. At this point in time, confidence is needed to be on a top level as this will help the players improve rapidly.

 ⁠The club greatly needs a prolific stroker that will be able to help them get the neededgoals and though there’s a big competition from rivals like Liverpool and Man United for the same position and if the club can leep improving that will set a good pace for them to be able to succeed in future.

I was expecting win for the FC Koln as they are trying to survive and this was good opportunity to have three points and chance of survive, but sadly their hard work not allow them to have any goal even they have done good job, and we have all game under well control for them with Freiburg were playing defensive in all game which helps them for having one point and chance for another season in Conference League even still we are having two more games which will give better opportunity to all for having their own chances, but this is huge lost for the FC Koln as they need to win this game and then having good chance in next game against Union Berlin which is also struggling and trying to survive in this season.

Dortmund were amazing in this game, and we can hope for the better result from them in coming game which is going to play in Paris this could be good opportunity to have place into final and their quality and performance both are favouring them for this chance.
Cologne haven't been an impressive side this season as their records and results from their encounters have been too poor. They are in a profound league and as such, they're expected to perform extremely beyond their normal rate but all time this season and in the past, they've been found wanting most especially when faced with top teams
 
 Yesterday they played away to Freiburg and sadly, they couldn't even try to get a win from the game and this only means that they aren't even living up to expectation considering how well they've performed in past seasons. This season kind of started off fine for them but lately keeping up the tempo has been an issue. One would wonder how they managed to depreciate drastically in their level of performances so far.

 It only shows how unpredictable football is and how much different they've become negatively. Their rate of performance currently is going to cost them their own spot on the league table. They should have tried to perform better to escape downward movement but unfortunately efforts put to their last game were in vain and who knows if it'll still be worse for them in their next encounter. No confidence for them ahead of the encounter but hopefully games would favour them in the last 3 matches left.

Yes, I think Inter Milan deliberately lost or maybe Inter Milan made another agreement outside the field by giving them a certain amount of money so they would give in. It could be that there are many gamblers who favor Inter Milan so that the bookies manipulate the winnings so that they make a profit and Inter Milan also gets a percentage. from the results of that defeat, anything can happen in the domestic league, after all Inter Milan has secured the Scudetto so experiencing one defeat or in the remaining matches experiencing defeat will not affect anything. Inter Milan will still come home with the Scudetto, the most important thing is if we bet on Inter Milan winning in the remaining matches Think about it carefully, the risk of losing might happen again like that match.

It is indeed full of suspicion that Inter Milan lost against Sassuolo even in their 2 meetings this season, even though Sassuolo is the weakest club in the Italian League currently struggling to get out of the relegation zone but it was able to beat Inter Milan, which is actually the strongest club currently in the league. So it's quite strange to see this defeat as if it was made up, and a few days ago someone said that there was someone who still wanted to favor Inter Milan even though they had won the Scudetto. How are now? maybe he lost in his bet Grin
It's understandable that Inter Milan weren't able to scale through in their UCL encounters but their level of performance was top-notch and highly places as they remarkably did their best to stay in the contests but as always there'll always be a greater team. There's no point being disappointed in them because even though not being able to advance in the European contest, they made sure that they secure the league trophy to themselves in a grand style.
 
 Their all time performances this season is one that should be highly ranked and commended. They did well to make a good difference this season. Their winning the trophy has given them an extra opportunity to showcase themselves in next season's UCL contest. This season, they've done well in outdoing themselves and putting up a different and better side of the usual Inter Milan we all know. They're good at what they do at the moment and hopefully, they'll do better in seasons to come too. Comparing their performances in all seasons past up until now, it's been another remarkable height they've attained.

 Generally, this season has given football a different atmosphere being that teams now surprise everyone to being unpredictable on the pitch and until the final whistle is blown before a game result can be known. Just difficulty in predictions are the latest occurences but from the beginning, Inter even though outdoing themselves ensured that the initial hope of the trophy was kept high till it was won. Yes it may seem suspicious that they lost away from home to Sassuolo but the major point is the fact that they've secured the trophy for the season. Yes a good finishing record would have been best but I don't think it matters, it's a bonus point to Sassuolo.

Currently, Nicholas Jackson have a total of 13 English Premier League goals this season but if you want to consider his total number of goals for his club Chelsea this season, he's scored 16 goals while registering 6 assists which makes his total goal contributions to club to 22 this season. For a player that is playing for an English Premier League club for the first time in his career, Jackson's statistics is an impressive one. However, the Senegalese striker would have scored more goals than he's managed this season if he was more clinical in front of goal and that's why a lot of people are of the opinion that he's not the kind of striker Chelsea will need next season if they truly want to improve from their performance of this current campaign.
Today, Jackson scored two goals and registered an assist to help Chelsea climb to the 7th position of the English Premier League table. Hopefully he's going to be more prolific in his last matches of the season so Chelsea fans can become more convinced that he'll be able to help them next season
Chelsea's top striker has today outdone himself in a very unusual style. Although it's a once in a while occurence. Congratulations to the London side comfortably taking the 3points fully as the host with a 5-0 win over West Ham at Stamford Bridge. The forward man graced the game with two goals and an assist and this placed him currently with 13 goals.

 Well the fans may seem his as a seasonal striker but still when it's time for him to excel, he definitely will. It'll be risky to use the outcome of today's game to judge his subsequent performance and essentially next season as there have been occasions where he performs well today and misperform for the next few games. We just have to hope that he keeps surprising us at every game the team has.

 Chelsea's victory pushed them to the 7th position with a little bit of hope to clinch a spot at the UEFA conference league too. Although that feat will only be attained when so many conditions are met and they're really difficult occurences to be met. Even if Chelsea subdues and meet their own end of the necessities, will the other teams sit back and be overpowered just to give Chelsea room to scale through. It'll be a tough final games for the season for the 5th,6th,7th and 8th positioned teams in the EPL.

PSG will have to go into the field with a plan that they haven't had the opportunity they have had this season and if they don't capitalize on this opportunity, they may not get the same opportunity in the next few seasons. They need not worry too much about the fact that PSG are one goal behind Dortmund in the first leg match because one goal is not too much and if the team performance is good then PSG can win by multiple goals. The outcome of this match will depend a lot on the good performance of PSG's defensive players and midfielders.
If the midfielders can support their defense well and if they can play aggressively from the midfield and if they can counter attack, but scoring multiple goals against Dortmund is not impossible.  

The second leg match will be much easier for PSG only if they have to plan properly and play according to the right plan.
 Well the second leg of the UCL is before us and there’s a tensed sense of anticipation as to what the tie holds for us especially us that are very optimistic on seeing a final between Real Madrid and PSG. This puts Borrusia Dortmund in between the devil and deep blue seas as they’re going to really think through on the strategy to use.

 ⁠They will either be defending their lead or coming out to attack and luckily they add to their lead but they kist be wary of the fast paced attackers of PSG. PSG will be having the home advantage to their favor and this could be the best time for them to create another history for themselves and get their name on the media for another great comeback.
 
 ⁠PSG are good with tactics and I know this match won’t be one very difficult one for them as following on Enrique tactics will be able to help them overturn this deficit and get them through the game. I can’t sincerely wait for this 2nd leg encounter already. ⁠I think anyteam who goes according to plan will be able to qualify past to the final as this is what this semi finals match is all about. I still have high hopes on PSG getting to the finals but let’s see what Dortmund has in stock for us.

Strong #Halamadrid
Real Madrid has been the most excited in La Liga this season due to which they have succeeded in winning the title. At the beginning of this season we saw Girona perform very well and they were at the top, later Real Madrid beat Girona and Barcelona to occupy the top spot of the points table and no team could catch them. And this season, Madrid has performed the best, which is why they have succeeded, but Ancelotti has contributed the most to this effort. He has made Madrid work the hardest and succeeded. Also I am very happy to see Real Madrid become La Liga champion this season, surely for next season Madrid will have better strict system and improve their game. However, since this season Real Madrid have played a significant role in the UEFA Champions League again and they are very much in contention for the title. And if they can beat Bayran Munich in the next match in the Champions League, then they will surely enter the final match and have the advantage of being champions.
La Liga is definitely a competitive league and for the fact that against all odds, Girona being an uprising team, have proven to stay in the top spot, it only means that there's definitely good fighting and resilient spirits in the teams there. The last weeks of the season games seems to be a walk over for Girona as they've in the first legs played to their best and have mastered rightly their strategies and the opposing team approaches, and so they've got better experience to countering the moves that'll be made.

 Of all seasons, asides the top teams like Atletico, Barcelona and Real Madrid, there's little or no heated contests to stay on top amongst average teams. Although their performances this season have been impressive but just as Villarreal who managed to get reasonable in the European contests and even Sevilla as well, this season, Sevilla is nowhere to be found in their usual league standings. ⁠The league is coming to an end and it’s evidently clear that Real Madrid will be the winners of the league especially after such remarkable season.

 Well Girona and Barcelona are the closest contenders but they haven’t  been able to gather enough points to be able to challenge Real Madrid. The La Liga is pretty competitive but I think it revolves majorly around Real Madrid and Barcelona as other clubs tend not to be able to perform better than these 2 clubs. Well this all balls down to investment in football and if that’s done we’ll be able to see major competitions in the league.

Liverpool initially participated in the race for the Premier League title at first but as the end of the season approached Liverpool increasingly lost their chances and are currently no longer competing in the race for the Premier League title with other strong rivals Manchester City and Arsenal, but despite Liverpool's failure in the title race In fact Liverpool has good players but their mentality is starting to be disturbed due to their defeat in the Europa League and in the Premier League Liverpool also made mistakes which further weakened the players' mentality, Jurgen Kloop also seems to have lost in managing the club in his last season maybe he is tired and wants to perform as it is even though it didn't win the Premier League and Europa League titles.

Mohammed Salah is experiencing a decline, perhaps due to the fact that he is getting older and affecting his stamina, he has performed well at Liverpool for many years and perhaps he is also tired of staying in the Premier League with increasingly tough competition, maybe if Jurgen Kloop leaves Liverpool it seems Mohammed Salah will also be sold by club management so it is possible that Liverpool will lose two great figures who have built the club's success, this is not the end of Salah's struggle. He can continue his career in another league that is not as competitive as the Premier League.
Liverpool on the other hand has experienced a push ahead in their stance since Klopp joined the team. They have been impactful in all areas of contests they find themselves. They've pulled through series of finals and have lifted a number of trophies too. The manager has been a positive addition to them and it's understandable if the club can't let go of him yet. This season, he's aimed for a number of trophies too, first when they took on Chelsea in the EFL finals, definitely the boss was charged to win again.

 Salah has been a quality player for Liverpool, he's still got a year additional before the expiration of his contract with the team and his impacts in the past have not stopped speaking for him, the time he has left in the team would still be enough for him to do what he knows how to do best. Salah's decision at the conclusion of his time with Liverpool would definitely be essential in his career growth. He's done his best for the club and it's just good enough that he stretches his net to see how much fish could be caught from other teams.
 
 There are variety of options he can pick from but career wise, the best would him joining the SPL, I'm certain that the SPL themselves wont hesitate to press on for him. He's the type of player they need for the league's growth. So the whole SPL decision is just both parties being assets to each other. Salah would join them as a result of the great football impact he'd make and he'll be earning substantial enough to keep him through till his final football days. First twas Mane and soon Salah, Liverpool would have to find a very big alternative. But do you think Salah's exit would make a negative difference on the team? It's seeming like it though but it'll be fun to watch a Liverpool void of Salah on the pitch too. Salah's has had a lot of big impacts to Liverpool team and it's definitely so hard to let him off the club.

Improvement is always a must to face a competition, regardless they have proven to be the the best. Xabi Alonso has to be aware of the best team being on everyone's eyes. Next season, Every team will see Leverkusen as a team to beat with the best efforts, this will make the next season campaign for next season harder than this season.

The fact that they will play in Champions League is a big consideration to strengthen to squad. They will be lucky if no player to have a move to other club, but they will still need to sign some new good players for next season campaign. Playing in champions League is not as easy as playing in Europa League, they will have to play against many strong teams. Any loss can affect their morale that could have impact on their performances in the league.
Bayern Leverkusen have mow gotten themselves in the history books as they have been able to win their first ever Bundesliga title. The win over Werder Bremen was enough to hell them seal up their place in first place and get them the trophy. Their run to this win of the title has been one that’s been quite fascinating especially as they haven’t recorded any loss in their way up till this moment and also none across all competitions. This performance is real top notch and as such you can imagine how much efforts the boys and Xabi Alonso have put in to the success of this.

 Alonso has very much been impressive in his performances for Leverkusen. He's been watched and observed and in all his games, he's proven to present an outstanding and formidable team. He's just new in the business but yet still has set up a formidable team. I really won't be surprised if he's beckoned up on by bigger clubs to show his abilities. He's proven to be worthy to handle well any team presented to him and definitely I believe he can do well if another team is put in his care. Maybe his strategies work well for him and can still work well with another team. With Leverkusen, he's done well and he's working towards an aim for the club. He's been watched closely to see how well he'd be able to keep up with the games for the team and see how well he can uphold against their biggest threat in the Bundesliga.

 He's just been able to prove himself worthy to take on a higher ranked club. His good at what he's done so far even with a less productive squad as Leverkusen, now one would imagine how enormous he'd achieve with a productive squad with higher player capacity and quality. He's another one amongst many players turn coach that did well both in the pitch and in the manager's box too. I really won't be surprised if he's beckoned up on by bigger clubs to show his abilities.

I don't think if Aston Villa will waste the opportunity to get the championship trophy after they are close to the trophy, Aston Villa have so far been able to continue their journey to reach the semi-finals so we can't say if they don't want the trophy just because the third level trophy of the current European competition, the Conference League is a new league presented by UEFA to provide opportunities for small teams in the world. Europe can compete in Europe at the moment, we know that so far the Champions League and also the Europa League is not an easy league for small teams to play so far, so I think the Conference League remains a strong attraction for Aston Villa because indeed right now only two teams have won it namely Roma and Westham.

Aston Villa defeat against Olympiacos was not because they were not serious, and I think we can also same assume  like  Liverpool lost to Atlanta in the Europa League, does that also mean Liverpool are not serious?, but sometimes we will see surprises that occur in every European competition match so far, although currently Aston Villa lost 2-4 on aggregate to Olympiacos does not mean they have been eliminated from the championship competition,  because surely in the second leg maybe they will rise to be able to beat Olympiakos.

Well each club have their opinions on certain trophies and as such they tend not to waste their time or effort trying to fight for the title. Some clubs take seriously cup competition because that could be their only hope of getting for the club a silverware but the big boys will always want to show up themselves in a league battle.
 
 As they feel they will be able to remain consistent in league runnings as that has more challenges than a cup tournament. This is a very absurd sense of reasoning as winning any title is a big achievement for every club and value shouldn’t be placed on one trophy over another because they’re all from a very well organized body.

Winning a trophy is usually a big boost for the club as it helps to tell the team that they’re doing right and they can progress forward for better challenges it also helps the fans with some bragging rights. For Aston Villa, I don’t think because of the loss they’ll now turn not to take the competition serious because this is an European trophy. ⁠Well all hope isn’t lost for them as they can be able to turn things around and to the difference in Greece as this is football and anything is possible so let’s pause and wait and see what the second leg has for us.

You are sounding like Arsenal really find it difficult to win Bournemouth but that's not the case because I watched the match live and I can tell you that Arsenal didn't struggle to win, 3:0 winning is not a struggle if you ask me but if it was just 1:0 i could say that the match was difficult for Arsenal because they played with a good sense of belonging knowing too well that any mistakes at this time now is very risky in the sense that if Manchester city loses or draw any of their remaining matches and Arsenal wins all their matches, Arsenal will emerge title winners because they are gapping Manchester city in goal difference of about  6 goals so if Manchester city draw any of their matches, Arsenal may use goal difference to win the league while the both teams may share equal points.
I’m not an Arsenal fan but come on, a 3 goal win is a real convincing win as these boys knew how important that much goals is to them. It helps them to build up goal difference because when you check that might be one thing needed for them in this tight title race with Man City. ⁠Arsenal’s attack were very present and ready to take on any chance and capitalize on mistakes from Bournemouth build up play. Yes Bournemouth were also dreadful but were wasteful and as such couldn’t get any goal to their name.

 You can see Man City also scoring up to 5 goals against Wolves, this goes to show how fierce their attack is and how important the building of goal difference is to them also. This is a wake up call to Arsenal that in a bid to chase 3 points, ensure to take chances that help you get the goals too.

 ⁠The race for who will be crowned champion of the league is really growing intensed and at this point whT matters is taking all 3 points and banging goals for your team. In as much as Arsenal will try hard, I don’t think they’ll be able to stop this Man city side I saw against Wolves yesterday.

The victory over Sheffield has helped Forest close the gap on Luton and it has no chance for luton to overcome forest caused by the gap is too big. Luton failed to score three points in order to maintain their grip on Nothingham Forest. Luton's chances of being relegated are increasing after it got draw against everton in the previous match. Luton has no EZ fixtures.
I expect this club, along with Sheffield United and Burnley, to earn zero points until the end of the season. Luton are just missing their last chance to play in the Premier League. The club is completely clueless in its game against Everton.

It is obvious that if Luton will be relegated soon after it was missing all of important points, they will be the third team to go after Sheffield and Burnley and yeah they it has been confirmed since forst is starting to wider the gap to the luton, sheffield and burnley. these teams are not even worthy to be on EPL caused by they were not so competitive. I believe Luton has no chance of surviving this season because they are missing key points and it must be starting from championship division again soo.
It is only a matter of time before it is relegated to the Championship Division. They are all qualified for the EPL, but they must return to the Championship Division.

As the top of the Epl is getting interesting, so also is the bottom half getting pretty intense too as the teams are struggling to get out of the relegation zone. Already confirmed for Relegation is Sheffield and obviously Burnley but for Luton they still have a chance. ⁠Yes a chance but after their performance yesterday were they ended the game with Everton in a draw and Forest got the win, you’ll already begin to count Luton out of the EPL already.

 Well we still have about 2-3 games to go for the EPL to be a wrap and Forst needs at least 3 points to be safe which is realistic as compared to Luton needing 6 points or more
3. ⁠Luton wouldn’t be having pretty easy fixtures as compared to Forest so that makes it safe to say Luton will be bidding the EPL goodbye very soon, too bad for them.

Their recent form and performance is nothing to write home about and this goes down to show how competitive the EPL is as the 3 teams who came up from the championship will be returning which is an indication that they were not ready for the EPL. I think whilst they return to the championship they can use that wisdom gotten from the epl to regroupand rebuild themselves for anytime they return. For now I wish them luck in their new phase.

You are right, PSG did not perform according to expectations because they were defeated by Dortmund and this match actually provided an opportunity for PSG to score goal but this opportunity failed because the ball hit the goal post.
Dortmund performance was unexpected because they previously performed less than satisfactorily and in this semifinal PSG was favored over Dortmund in the two matches that took place, with only 1 goal and playing defensively, Dortmund got the advantage.
I was very surprised when I saw that until the end of the second half PSG didn't get single goal that could equalize, I sure many people were disappointed and gamblers lost money because they made PSG the favorite.

But I sure that in the second leg match PSG will definitely get an absolute victory and they will be able to surpass Dortmund 1 point deficit in the aggregate.
My prediction is that PSG will win the semifinals and they will be in the final against Real Madrid, but it is impossible for PSG to beat Real Madrid if they actually meet in the final.
Well the first leg was a disappointing one for psg and most gamblers who had high hopes on PSG at least getting a draw in Germany. This is because psg had a good preparation for this game as against Dortmund who are still in a top 4 battle so it’s expected psg would be winning this comfortably. Well the reverse was the case as Dortmund had a good strategy to this match and it played out for them.

 Borrusia Dortmund took this game defensively and they only had a goal and made sure they defended all through the remaining minutes. Psg on the other hand though lost some great chances which also hit the woodwork couple of times but I think this result in all was a disappointing one for them.

 Of course there’s a second leg at Parc des Princes and Enrique will have to make this team perform above average to be able to do another comeback. He’s got the right players for the job as he’s got some highly skilled individual players that can help do the job, so relying on them will be one great strategy to effect a comeback.

 ⁠I’m still optimistic on psg being able to head to the finals but with this kind of performance, if they meet a team like Real Madrid, I think they won’t be able to stand a chance. Well I’m favoring Real Madrid to get the Ucl so as to reinstate their stand as the big boys of Europe.
