Another draw between Crystal Palace and Manchester City will not put Pep Guardiola in a good mood, as I know he will be right now. He did not anticipate Crystal Palace to play this well, as they are winning by a score of roughly 2-0 and Crystal Palace is scoring goals back. The most upsetting thing is that Crystal Palace ended up winning 2-2. This indicates that Manchester City's performance is lacking, which will lead many fans to believe that their team has no chance of winning the Premier League trophy this year.

The only player I believe is missing from the game is Haaland; all the other players are there, and I think that whatever Haaland can accomplish, Alvarez can too. The players are in good shape, but despite my knowledge of how dangerous Crystal Palace can be at times, nobody will think that the Manchester City team's lineup will allow Crystal Palace to draw with them. This has also given Liverpool the chance to put in more effort in order to gain more points and win the league.

Donny van de Beek finally reached a verbal agreement with Frankfurt but that was on loan until June 2024. I think it was the right decision for him to get regular minutes in another team and if he still stays at Manchester United then he will only be a warm-up reserve bench. Even though his status is only on loan, Donny van de Beek will definitely be happy about trying out a new challenge in the Bundesliga. The purchase clause is not mandatory, but if Frankfurt wants to trigger the clause then they must prepare funds of 15 million euros. Well, if Donny van de Beek can still prove his quality, Frankfurt will certainly not hesitate to buy his clause from Manchester United.

Athletic Bilbao vs. Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao match looks more likely to be a draw. We considered Atletico Madrid as favorites in this match. But the performance of Bilbao's players at home is very good today. Athletic Club's performance in the first half was very good. However, Bilbao failed to score from the penalty, so the first half ended in a goalless state.

Atletico Madrid's performance is poor today. In the first half they played with ball possession. But they don't try to attack too much. In the first half, Atletico Madrid players made only 2 shots. On the other hand, Athletic Club players made a total of 11 shots.

I got confused as well not until I read your reply and figured out it was a typo error and he meant Genoa, well Juventus really tried there best in that game, but it wasn't enough, they were lucky to get a penalty that got them the opener goal, but too bad there defense line was a bit open and it gave Genoa an opportunity to score and equalizer and they defended after that and didn't give Juventus a clear opportunity to find the back of the next after their 1st goal.

 Well Intermilan are the benefactors of that encounter cause they're now a point ahead of Juventus and if they win tomorrow against Lazio if would be four points ahead of Juventus, this is a big boost for them, based on the title race and I'm pretty sure they'll try as much as possible to secure the three points and stay four points clear off Juventus.

I am pretty surprised that you still think he is a good coach and he's just being unlucky. He is just bad. And he will not be able to make Manchester United improve. In my opinion, he never was able to improve Manchester United.  And now it is just evident. That's why people are actually losing their minds. In my opinion, he was never a good coach. He had no clear plan of what to do. He just tried a bunch of things and previously that seemed to work out for some reason. But now it is not working anymore.

It looks like Fulham is very confident in placing a bet on him, the statistics from the last few matches seem to be that Fulham has been really consistent in the last few, it's not wrong if you place a bet for a draw because that could happen or vice versa Fulham can win this match.

Newcastle, I'm hesitant to place a bet on them because they are really going downhill in several matches, even Newcastle seems to have lost their way and don't know how to win the match, therefore I also have doubts about this club, I would rather look at the Fulham and Everton matches..

Real Madrid never failed to bring new manager into their team, that's make Real Madrid never lose their legacy.

Chelsea, they need to work in many thing, not only about the striker. But at least they've show there's a good progress compared to their performance when Potter was still become Chelsea's manager.

Manchester United, after Sir Alex Ferguson left the team, Manchester United turns like Tottenham, a cursed team.

Tottenham performed brilliantly in the game, which saw them secure a win with Forest. Currently, fifth in the Premier League points table, Tottenham has the potential to overtake Manchester City if they can succeed in their next matches. Also, Forest didn't attack that well which is why Forest couldn't equalize the match, however Tottenham are a strong team, and they attacked well which led to victory. Forest had many chances to score going into the 70th minute when a Tottenham player received a red card, but they still couldn't score. With ten men on the field, Tottenham played brilliantly against Forest and eventually secured their place in the points table with a win.

The challenging thing for Inzaghi in this season is about their player Cuadrado.
Inter Milan will need to hire a right-back during the winter because their player Cuadrado is injured and he needs to have surgery soon which means he won't be able to play for a long time and this can be challenging for Inter Milan and their coach Inzaghi to find a replacement for Cuadrado.
Cuadrado joined Inter Milan for from from Juventus and now Inter Milan should spend money to hire another right back for the rest of this season.

I keep wondering which players Chelsea and Manchester United will sign when the market opens, these two teams have been the center of attention in the market when it opens, this is because these two teams make meaningless signings, so I keep asking myself what they will do when the market opens. I saw in an interview that the Real Madrid coach gave, he clearly said that Real Madrid will not sign anyone in this transfer window, and it makes sense. This is because real madrid has a good squad, but has problems in attack and they will choose to wait for mbapp to be free before signing him, this would mean that real madrid would have to wait for this season to end before signing mbappe. seems like a good choice

Chelsea's coach said in an interview that Chelsea needed to sign more players, I'm wondering who Chelsea's target will be and if there will be many players wanting to play for Chelsea at the current level Chelsea are currently at. So far I have not seen any rumors that have any chance of being true about any player that Chelsea is interested in signing, probably in the next few weeks we will start listening to the rumors, this month because it is a month of parties and because the teams want to avoid that leaks information about new signings because it would increase the price and competition, the teams are silent

I definitely don't believe ETH is a bad manager. Both what he achieved at ajax and what he achieved last year, making manchester 3rd, winning the league cup, playing in the final of the fa cup and losing 2-1 to city in a close game, eliminating barcelona in the uefa and losing to sevilla who would have won the cup, etc. show that he is a good manager. But this year he is doing incomprehensible things. For example, when they made the transfer of Höjlund, it was very irrational. It is still very irrational. There are those who make haaland comparisons, but he is a young version of weghorst. He is 2 years younger than haaland. 2 years ago haaland was in the bundesliga and the champions league playing amazing. This guy has no goals in 12 games and I don't think he'll score 10 goals at the end of the season. Let's say he doesn't score goals, he contributes something to the game, but he doesn't. In fact I think he spoils the team's game. That is an example of what was wrong with ETH and that's why they performed horribly in the CL and conceded 15 goals.

Regarding the news that Ten Hag will be fired from Manchester United, it doesn't seem to make him feel anxious and at the press conference held, Ten Hag stated that he was not worried about the dismissal he might receive after the match against Liverpool if Manchester United loses.
And of course everyone knows that Manchester United has no chance of winning that match because it is certain that Bruno Fernandes who is also the captain, will be absent due to suspension.
In addition, Harry Maguire who suffered hamstring injury was also absent from the match, while Luke Shaw also suffered hamstring injury.
Even though Harry Maguire is not defender who can really contribute very well, at least the absence of these three players could put more pressure on Ten Hag to be able to perform optimally in the match against Liverpool later.
However, there are several rumors stating that there is still hope that Maguire and Shaw can appear in the match against Liverpool.
But this is still just rumor and there is no definite clarity regarding the progress of these two players, whether they can still play or have to undergo recovery.

Ten Hag will really use his intelligence to make Manchester United perform well if the two players who were injured after the match against Bayern Munich were unable to appear against Liverpool.
It shame because apart from losing, they also suffer from or players suffer injuries.

Tottenham started the game week by a decent win over Nottingham by 2-0. This time Ange Postecoglou put Son on the left wing and preferred Richarlison in the centre-forward position. Both of these players showed good performances after that. However Kulusevski was definitely the man of the match as he scored a goal and made an assist. 

Now Tottenham are on a winning streak of two games. They really need to keep this streak as long as possible to recover. They need that not to fall too behind the teams at top as well otherwise they might have bigger problems on even finishing the season in top 4.

Juventus opened the week by an away game against Genoa however it wasn't a positive opening for Juventus at the same time.    They couldn't use their influence much here interestingly. Genoa were able to play at the same level with them. I mean their xG wasn't much different than Juventus and the number of goal attempts was also the same.

Juventus are one of the best defense teams this season and I thought they would keep their advantage when they got ahead first here as well. However Genoa's effort deserved to be appreciated really. This is a really good opportunity for Inter to open the gap with Juventus more in the standings but first they had better manage to beat Lazio away.

Has much as Napoli f@%#& up with that tiktok video mocking their talisman,  I don't think his going any where as at now!

If any thing, rumor has it that Osimhens new contract is coming up which could make him the highest paid player should he play his cards right , and I see this as damage control for what transpired and if money doesn't talk then this lad will be a tough nut crack and will leave...

Btw,  why is it that Barcelona is usually in the news of being linked with all these big names when they know too well not to attract attention after losing  one of the biggest names in football 🤔

I think the problem isn’t ETH but the players especially some lazy set of players who feel they’re too big for some of his routines during training and who doesn’t know the real meaning of playing for the Manchester United badge. Yes, he might be kind of strict but they should know it’s for a cause, to get trophies. And the board too who got most of these lazy players in wouldn’t want to go against them due to some benefits.

 So I think the main issue is the Takeover; when finally completed, I feel effective change will spark up in this Manchester United team under the same ETH, and I hope Sir Jim would do a total clean up in the footballing sector of the club and help them get better, especially selling those deadwoods that's got nothing to offer them anymore, cause they're the bad eggs that are hindering the clubs progress too, Martial for example.

You are right, Tottenham have scored their second goal to go 0-2 up against Nottingham. Unfortunately, Tottenham had to play with 10 players after one of their players received a red card, but considering that the match is almost over, I think Tottenham's victory in this match will be safe. The problem is, they once again had to let their good players miss due to red cards in the next match.

Yves Bissouma, this is his first red card in 2 seasons. But he has collected 6 yellow cards in 15 matches this season in the Premier League. This is detrimental to the team because Ange Postecoglou needs it, but it can't be helped because mistakes in a match cannot be completely avoided.

Juventus is very likely to force Inter Milan to be in second place in the Serie A table. A change in position will occur when Juventus visits the Genoa Stadium today.
Two points behind Inter Milan is not a difficult thing for Juventus to do because Juventus does not have a busy playing schedule based on the calendar this season, only Serie A and the Coppa Italia. Juventus will be favored because they do not have a busy playing schedule which can force the players' physical performance to be optimal compared to Inter Milan who are still in the Champions League.

Of all the teams in the group stage, only Leverkusen managed to win 6 matches with a perfect 18 points. This is so real and with the expertise of Xabi Alonso this result can be achieved. He is a phenomenal coach with Leverkusen and with the additional victory over Molde made Leverkusen consolidate its 20th victory so far in all competitions.

Leverkusen are also unbeaten in all competitions and I wonder how long they can maintain this record. The numbers are fantastic and no one has been able to beat them to date. Now Leverkusen is just waiting for the draw results and I am also curious who will be their opponents later.

Manchester United will suffer a big loss if Casemiro leave the club, he has done an incredible work for that club because in all his career, he got his first red card in Manchester United trying to protect the club against all odd. In most of the games he was absent, they suffered losses both at home and away and the rest of the defenders are not doing well, they always need him but he got a another red card at the time the club need him the most. I'm sure that he will be rush by Saudi squads anytime he becomes a free agant when the market open and I'm sure Manchester United are going to earned well from this deal.

PSG can't deal with their own failure and now they are suffering from wron decisions they made, it is now they needed a young players to revive the path of the club. Thanks goodness Mbape didn't win the World Cup the second time otherwise they will have presented the club presidence to Mbape out love to make him stay in the club. Indeed a club only value your loyalty when they have something unique that you have, the soonest they don't see that again, they switch immediately.
