Newcastle losing this match was due to some errors while they were about building from the back, but this is in not supposed to be an excuse because they’re one of the 4 teams representing England in the UCL which is a big stage and when compared to Everton who are in the relegation zone, they’re bigger and bette. But mistakes happens and yes, lessons have been learnt.

 Now Everton who’ve secured 3 points and gotten out of relegation zone, will be playing a wounded Chelsea team who’ll be coming into this match with wounded hearts from Old Trafford, I think Everton won’t have any point at all in this fixture, Everton will still struggle this season but one thing Is sure, they’ll be safe from relegation.

Feyenoord won’t pose much of a threat to PSV they might try to come close but I don’t think PSV will let this title slip out their hands. You can see from the way PSV plays every game and try to win the match that shows how serious they’re gunning for this league and they’ll sure have it as their reward for hardwork. They’ve got the squad depth to challenge and also they’ve got the drive to pull some big surprise at Europe’s top stage, the UCL.

 Ajax who’re regaining form managed to get all 3 points from the spot kick, though it was surprising as many thought Ajax will trail comfortably but this shows that there’s quite much work for the coach and his crew in terms of the players and new recruits. The January window will soon be on and he’ll need to get in some key players else he’ll probably lose form and go down the log. Ajax needs a good squad so as to challenge to get an European spot next season.

Hamburg is one team who seems just like Everton in the EPL, season in and out they battle relegation but unlike Everton they were finally relegated. Now as a top team, finding a way back to top flight, Bundesliga shouldn’t be much a task but we see them messing up things at final stages. What’s the problem, the players or the coach?

 I think this team needs just few additions and the team will be back to German top flight sooner than expected. Saarbucken has now kicked out 2 top German teams and are now in the Quater Finals, I don’t think they’ll go beyond this phase but if they do par adventure, it would be a delight to watch but teams like Stuggart and Bayern Leverkusen are now favorites to win this competition.

Every player didn't just get the fame on their own, they didn't grow to this level of acceptability by themselves. Every fan now sing their praises and would always want to see them perform. They didn't become this good at a solo effort. It's one thing to note that a player cannot get to an expected end without the proper support he needs. A good team is essential in a player's journey.

 A team to back and cheer you up, who's got your back, who supports your goals and visions and will want to see your expansion. No doubt every player has her own goal and they're unique in their own way. The best blessing a player would receive is him having a manager that matches his strength and a team that complements him too. It'd only make the ride easy a bit. Drogba had the best team he needed, so did Messi and Ronaldo when he began to do his wonders. The team helped them grow into becoming the big names they are now. Not shaming the players that are not big names or their teams but it's just a definite notion that a good support system aids an easy drive way to success depending on your personal plans and aims.

The season hasn't been quite adventurous for Juventus as they've been indicted to not taking part in the Europa League. They've been focusing their strength on the domestic Serie A league and they've been doing excellently well in it. They've even got a greater chance of being far ahead in the standings than the likes of Inter Milan because for others, after the league games, they'd still have to play the continental tournament and this will definitely affect players' physical capabilities too.

 Although, in as much as a weighty gap is expected of them, Inter Milan has made it difficult because they've also been in their best form. The team are using this season to put in more work to ensure a spot in next season's European cup tournament and they definitely would earn it.

 They've got good set of players, right squad combination and their coach is doing his best part and giving them the right tactical approach. I don't know if they've got choice of changes to make during the mid season transfer window but at this state now, Juventus are good to go to some extent only if extra energy wants to be pumped into the squad to increase their efficiency too.

The domestic league trophy and the country's cup is one major pointer in the Bundesliga. Munich have been disqualified and now their main focus is chasing after the Bundesliga trophy. They've got chances to get back in too but the season lately has not been as it used to. The threat and struggle to keep up the contest from Leverkusen is unwavering and then they have to put in extra struggles to it.

 Leverkusen themselves are doing well in holding up the contest for the league cup and also still have a shot at the DFB pokal. Alonso is one manager that has the ability to go for what he wants currently and I won't be surprised if he still presses on to achieve both titles. They've got what it takes both managerial and player wise to succeed in the German cups and the outcome of the whole contest will be seen next year and it's much anticipated.

Last night's game between Villa and City was really much anticipated to see City being the victor but a whole lot of people turned numb when Villa netted in the first and only goal almost at the injury time of the game. Twas then that it was realized that Villa had never lost a home game for a number of weeks and City didn't even have the power to break the jinx.

 For City and most football fans, it was a bad night because the hopes were high and the expectations were clear. City on normal grounds are a better side to Villa but yesterday things took turn. Villa dominated the game from the start to the finish and it was really heavy on Guardiola because again his team has not been able to secure a win. Well I believe this is just for a period of time and things will get back to normalcy again. I strongly doubt that City will let this continue for as long as ever. They're a good team and they sure do know where, when and how to fix up errors.

Not so many excellent players have made it so well as coaches and Patrick Vieira is one of them. These players turn coaches ae excellent when it comes to building young talents but there’s always a coma when they need to get excellent results from the team they coach, Strasbourg has some youngsters that has gotten the attention of some top clubs in Europe but yet the team performa woefully and have a very bad form in the league.

 Now Brest who faces strasbourg over the weekend will be going all out for 3 points and it’s very quite possible because they’ve better chance, but for this match I think it’ll end in a draw with both teams sharing points and yes an Under 2.5 is a nice option to bet on.

 The match result wasn’t what most fans expected especially judging from the way both teams have played of recent times. Chelsea was thought to have the upper hands but seems in this match they lost control of the midfield battle and Manchester United capitalized on that and that earned them 3 points. The win was well deserved and credits must be given to Ten Haag who knew he had to sit out Rashford because he was obviously one of their many problems and also the sub of Lindelof who was not in the match.

 Now this Chelsea has shown the fans that they still have a long way to go as they can defeat some opponents and have bad days then get defeated and that means more work for Pochettino and his boys, hopefully they’ll bounce back when they face Everton next else, I think the fans will be coming for Pochettino soon.

Liverpool are a better team compared than Arsenal especially when it comes to taking a look at the club’s trophy cabinet. You would see that Liverpool have more titles compared to Areenal and much more EPL teams, Arsenal who deliver week in week out but falter close to the final stages of a competition and that’s pretty bad, I think with Liverpool current squad they seem fierce and it’ll be hard to stop this Liverpool team from winning the title; the Europa and EPL.

 Arsenal who sits top of the EPL seems like a team that might falter soon especially when you see the way they played Luton Town; it was quite a crazy match and Luton could have gained points from that encounter but all thanks to Declan who always turned up to get the winners. Now you can imagine when Declan is out, how Arsenal could lose points and Liverpool slowly climb to top spot.

From the inception of football, there have been legends, stars and players who have done explicitly well for themselves, their teams they had times with. Every man got in himself his own unique skills, there was something that caused them to stand out amongst all, something really different. It's very beautiful that at every time, there's always been fans' favorite in football, and it's not something that'd stop occurring, the only difference would be the fact that the next favorite will have his own talk about story and unique style of play too.

 There have been Drogba, Pele, Maradona, Messi, Ronaldo. This wouldn't be the end of the least. Currently the most talked about is Ronaldo and Messi because there's not been anyone who's come out with his own style to make a huge impact to football and it'll soon occur. In a couple of years, there'd be a new rise of star and definitely the football world would embrace him and 🥳 him just as others. Every man just has to build himself and create uniqueness in his game and the impact would be seen and hailed.

Barcelona didn't quite alright give their best in their last La Liga encounter against Atletico Madrid. They couldn't use the home advantage to their favor although their visitors ensured they defended Barcelona's only goal to the last. For their next game against Girona, Girona is also in the top stand and they have the capacity to take the game to the last level and draw against Barcelona. Although normally the host advantage ought to pay off but I don't think Barcelona themselves too would allow points to slip by.

 The club knows how's competitive the game would be and they'd do whatever it takes to ensure that they don't get a loss. None of the two teams would entertain a loss, so it's very much best that they end with a share of points. Both teams are currently on the same range of play, Girona still can outshine Barcelona as a result of the fact that they've been up and running this season and then Barcelona can be not too much confident due to the fact that they'd be the visitors and Girona who lost to Madrid would want to uphold a win and still maintain the 2nd spot on the Spanish league table.

AS Roma tried to keep up with the game against Sassuolo, they didn't actually play with their full strength but they had to embrace the chance put before them. It was actually a much needed come back though. First they were playing away and their host made it tough for them until they had fallen short of a player and had conceded the first goal from their visitors too. AS Roma have not been playing perfectly and they've actually had a poor game outcome too.

 They've got time to meet up, they need improvement. They can't keep waiting for luck to shine on them before being able to bag 3 points. They're loosing their range of being a tough side to being a soft side. The serie A league is getting fierce and if they want to be relevant, they've got to live up to it. They have to try to make a spot for themselves in the European tournament qualifications and they just won't be able to do it by merely being relaxed in every game they play.

The most randomly used tactics solution when facing a bigger team is a defensive strategy that only obeys counter attacking. Bayern do not seem as a team that'll be vulnerable to this tactic but they still have to be cautious, they have all it takes to secure a big win, their players from defense to attack are so organized such that Kane doesn't have to make much struggle in winning the ball and placing at the back of the net, Tuchel is one skilful coach and he knows how best to counter the tactics that's put forward by opposing teams, Bayern Munich themselves are one team that makes winning so easy for them and there wouldn't be a surprise if it's thesame outcome in their next game.

 Harry Kane is eager to score more goal, Bayern Munich is determined to win, Koln's team just has to profer a subduing strategy to reduce the infliction of goals against them, In as much as Leverkusen are currently at the top of the standings in the German League, there's still hope and opportunity and confidence in Munich to reclaim the top spot, the season has been quite competitive and challenging for Munich based on Leverkusen's awakened impact and standard of football, they've made Munich loose a winning point in their home ground and that definitely says a lot on how critical and technical their contest for the trophy is.

They're not taking chances, Munich has had the show in the German League for a while now and truthfully they've so gotten used to it, this season may be the difference and they may have to sit back and watch someone else lift the trophy, It'll be bad and sad for them though that's why I believe Tuchel won't fold his arms and watch Alonso's Leverkusen take it all, they're just a very little point away from each other, with Munich to a pending match advantage too, maybe that match can be the turning point for them but whichever way, we really can't wait to see the end of the season and who finishes top.

We've gotten to the period in the EPL season where teams that have always been exceptional in their performance starts being inconsistent for weeks. This is more like a tradition in the EPL, definitely the inconsistencies would occur but after a period of time, things would take a different turn swiftly and rapidly push back the defaulting team to it's rightful position, couple of days and weeks back, we've seen City embrace 2 draws and yesterday they took in a loss.

 Although playing away from home, that didn't have any much impact on their performance because we've always seen them doing well both at home and away from home. They were subdued yesterday and the outcome of their play wasn't encouraging. Their host Aston Villa held them down from the beginning to the end of the game and it was shameful to watch City play in that manner. I won't blame them though, it's just about that time of the season. What matters more is the aftermath of all this once we're out of the traditional cycle in the EPL.

Yes, in as much as the ball was already out of Anthony’s control, I think that was still a penalty because that was quite reckless from the Chelsea Midfielder. He got same penalty credits some weeks back against Tottenham and he gave out such a similar one yesterday, that’s crazy. It was a penalty but deserved no booking.

 Sanchez coming to save that Penalty was one highlight of that match yesterday. Yes, he’s got some flaws but that’s confidence between those sticks. Manchester United were a better team and got all 3 points because they worked real hard for it unlike Chelsea who couldn’t find their feet in this game even after getting the equalizer, well I think Poch has some work to do else, he’ll be taking this Chelsea team down down the log and the fans will be coming for him soon.

Yes, the Saudi league doesn’t belong to these 2 teams but their successes in the league is what attracts our talks. Like these two teams have gained some massive successes and they’re worthy of every recognition they are both getting at this moment, I don't think I'll be wrong if I say that these teams are the ones that's made the league more interesting and competitive, and currently every other club in the Saudi League is trying to emulate what they did by signing European players into their club.

Ittihad will have a tough one to beat Damac who haven’t had a bad game in last 5 outings. The win is auite important of Ittihad wants to send a signal that they’re back on track. A loss for Ittihad in this game will see them loosing out on quite some things and standings in the league.

Real Madrid who are so desperate in need of a striker have made some mouth watering offers for Kylian but they’ve all been turned down by PSG because of how desperately the club wants him to stay. Mbappe in same manner, desperately needs a UCL gold medal to his name and with the PSG squad, he doesn’t see it forthcoming the more reason he’s forcing his way out.

 Fortunately for Real, Kylian’s contract expires at the end of the season and they’ll now be dealing with the French star personally as he’ll be a free agent, If this deal still doesn’t pull through I think Madrid has what it takes to get Erling to their side though this might be pretty tough but very possible, however I don't think City  would love to lose one of their best player to Madrid no matter the price.

This season, PSV's form is Excellent with 14 wins and no draw or lose. This performance currently places PSV at 1st out of 18 teams in the Eredivisie League. PSV's home form is excellent with the following results : 7 wins, 0 draws, and 0 losses. And their away form is considered excellent, as a result of 7 wins, 0 draws, and 0 losses.

 PSV has scored a total of 50 goals this season in Eredivisie. That’s quite massive, for them them to do the invincible of Arsenal well it’s very possible especially if they’ll get out of the UCL early and focus majorly on the league, they’re a surprise team this season in Europe. Their counterparts, Ajax are doing quite bad and poor but they’re already turning the situation around for their good.

The last Champion League faceoff results left most teams to calculated qualifications for the round of 16. A whole lot of teams advancement doesn't necessarily depend on the outcome of their final group game, but rather on the outcome of other group team games too. United drew to Galatasaray, so did Copenhagen to Munich. Now the advancement is certain alone for Munich but the other three would have to fight in their own final games and still pray that the counterpart teams get a result that'd give them a chance to qualify as well.

 I don't know how United will face Munich because they're not in form even if they'd be the hosts, Munich are doing exceedingly well and they've not failed to make clubs stay down. Ten Hag has to do the greatest needful and also pray really hard because their destiny isn't in their hands solely, Bayern Munich drew to Copenhagen and this slightly made their qualification uncertain. Although they've got enough points needed to qualify which in their next and final match with United, will be sealed. For Galatasaray, they also had a draw with United in the last UCL encounter and now these four teams are left to struggle through in the final group game. That'll be the decider for each of their performance.
