Manchester United fans did not have to wait long for the first disappointment of the season. The defeat of the Red Devils at Brighton at their own stadium is, next to Liverpool's draw against Fulham, the biggest surprise of the Premiership's first round. Manchester City has completely dominated the game against West Ham United and Erling Haaland has already confirmed that he will be one of the prime candidates for the top goalscorer crown.
Remember that chelsea and arsenal are also starting to back to its best performance. MU is the one who has been giving the worst performance. If that will always continue and it will become a disaster. Maybe it's too early for us to say about this but im sure that if this will become one of the most competitive season in the english premier league. I hope that any other small club can perform like brighton. There is nothing to be proud of with Manchester United's performance this season, Ronaldo and colleagues started the season very badly. The defeat of a team like Brighton strengthened the suspicion that Manchester United was still unable to rise from adversity. When other teams are able to build a perfect squad, Manchester United is silent without being seen as active in the transfer market. The Premier League needs a great squad to compete for the top spot, while Manchester United cannot be said to be a great team, especially this season. |

Manchester United have been reported to be interested in Leroy Sane recently. This would be an interesting move because he is a former Manchester City player at the same time. However I don't think that Bayern Munich would be keen on selling him at the moment. Because he is still one of the important players for the team and he started the season very well too. Manchester United just need to make an offer that can't be refused easily. I see no other way for it.
Bayern Munich is unlikely to sell a player who is a mainstay in their squad, so far Leroy Sane's contribution has been very good and he has got a guarantee in the main squad, I think Munich will not sell Sane without any reason. Manchester United's mistake was too slow in the transfer market, so they had difficulty finding players who matched the team's needs. Now Manchester United have to pay dearly for their mistakes with a defeat in the first match, after seeing the results of the Manchester United vs Brighton match it will be very difficult for Ten Hag's team to be able to compete with other big teams this season. |

There is still time for Ansu Fati to become a very significant player surely. They have players like Gavi and Pedri as well who must be convinced to remain in the team in the long term. Because these two players also are very crucial for Barcelona's future now. Xavi is creating a brand new team so they will need every single one of their skilled youngsters. When it comes to this season I'm also waiting for them to fight for being the champions as most people. This season is hopefully going to be a lot of fun.
Basically the Barcelona squad has indeed recovered and has good prospects but unfortunately, the internal situation and conditions seem very complicated to fix until Barcelona finally sell their own assets. It will still take a long time for Barcelona to make internal conditions better and healthier, I will just wait for the case to be resolved and not about the players and their performance. Because if we talk about performance and squad I think it can be seen clearly that Barcelona's squad and performance continues to grow, but these developments are not evenly distributed which makes Barcelona a team that has internal problems that must be resolved. The case facing Barcelona can be resolved slowly, now they are focusing on strengthening the team ahead of the new competition. The financial problems are still not completely resolved, Laporta and the Barcelona board of directors are working to save the club from the crisis that befell them. The sale of 10% of broadcasting rights and revenue from sponsorships could help the club's economy, now Barcelona are ready for the new season with a few players who have just signed for glory. |

West Ham 0-2 Manchester city
Manchester City won an amazing 2-0 against West Ham. Haaland played great. He scored both goals in the match, albeit one from the penalty opportunity. But today we got to see the dominance of Manchester City quite well in the whole match. Manchester City had 76% of the ball possession and West Ham only 24%. When Liverpool dropped points in their first match, Guardiola made no mistake. Despite strong opponents, City managed to score 3 points.
Is important Manchester city win today's game after their loss last week at the community shield, the way they dominant west ham was shocking, they barely give the ball away, Antonio didn't even have an attempt or bully anyone, today game also show how good pep gaidiola is and how difficult it was for Manchester city to be playing without a striker for years,haaland was the missing piece he makes it easier for city,it would have been a difficult job for Manchester city without there talisman who always provide options for his teammates A satisfying result for Manchester city and a stage for Haaland to show his quality, Haaland 2 goals against West Ham can heal the wound after they lost in the Community Shield. Manchester city is very dominant in this match, the quality of the team led by Guardiola is very far above West Ham. Guardiola managed to make Manchester City a nightmare for West Ham. Haaland must always maintain his form in attack Manchester City, he is like a kid who has just returned from being away for a while, I really enjoy the way he plays. |

Paris Saint-Germain made a good start to the season by making a goal show. Scoring 5 away goals against Clermont is a great success.
Lionel Messi started with two goals and an assist. He showed that he is much better than last season. Neymar scored a goal and had three assists. Paris Saint-Germain played one sided in the match. They didn't have any danger in their goal. It should be nice to start with a clear win and three points. They will be champions again this year.
It is difficult to call this a great achievement considering the difference in the class of teams. PSG could have achieved victory even with the help of a reserve squad. But in any case, it was a good victory, much better than last season, when PSG had problems almost all the time at the beginning of the game, and then overcame them. By the way, last year's pattern repeats (I hope): when all the star three play together, PSG have problems, when one is missing, then the game goes easily. Harmony between players must be maintained by Galtier to achieve a pleasant final goal. PSG's big win was the start of a beautiful career for Galtier as a coach, there are still a lot of games to go through this season. Big wins in League 1 are common to PSG, I want to see Messi, Neymar and Mbappe work together to lead PSG to win the Champions League, it will be a very extraordinary moment in my opinion. |

Alonso was become the second option for barcelona. Azpilicueta already signed a new contract with chelsea and he was even telling xavi about that. it seems like barcelona was more interesting with azpili rather than marcos but yeah everything was going on unpredictable. The new contract that already signed by azpili made barcelona has no chance to get him. let's wait another official announcement about marcos. If it's still a rumour and yeah we are even very close to the end of transfer season.
Barcelona is eager to bring in both, Alonso and Azpilicueta playing in different positions. Obviously Barcelona prioritizes both, because Barcelona still lacks players in the right back and left back positions. Between these two players, Alonso is getting closer to joining Barcelona, so far the talks between the two clubs are going very well, especially Chelsea has just signed Cucurella. As for Azpilicueta, Barcelona must close the book, because he has just signed a contract extension with Chelsea with a duration of two years. |

This is another important season for PSG to reach the CL title. They have build a wonderful trio on the front with Neymar, Messi and Mbappe but still they haven't been able to win this title. It was related to Pochettino's vision as well I presume and we will see what Galtier will change in this team for achieving it. Galtier is actually a far more inexperienced manager and some of us still have doubts about him. I also have that to be honest but I'm still trying not to be prejudiced.
Its not that easy to win the champions league title. Its really hard even to get to the semi final let alone win the title. They got too many superstars that dont play defence at all and this might be a huge problem for PSG in the champions league this season. It's true, winning the Champions League is not an easy matter, there are many obstacles to overcome because the teams that join the UCL are the best teams in their respective leagues. PSG have long wanted the Champions League trophy, but until last season they had not been able to make their dream come true. Even though PSG already has the most luxurious squad in the world, it doesn't mean they can easily get the UCL title, because the depth of the team must prove to be able to make a breakthrough when faced with other strong teams. One thing that PSG still doesn't have to succeed in the UCL, namely the Champion Mental. Although there are so many PSG players who have had success with the team they previously played for, but PSG do not have a winning mentality on the European stage. |

I wouldn't be surprised without Lewandowski Bayern Munich will continue to dominate the Bundesliga, although not in very ideal conditions ahead of the new season, Bayern Munich are still seeded to win the domestic title for the 11th time in a row. The helplessness of Frankfurt with a score of 6-1 in the first match, proves that Bayern are still very difficult to be matched by other clubs in the Bundesliga. the presence of Sadio Mane was more than enough for Bayern to get the title for the 11th time in a row. Nevertheless, I think Bayern Munich will find a tougher opponent in the Champions League match and will present a more interesting match. Without Lewandowski Bayern Munich will still be a strong team in the Bundesliga as well as a trophy-winning team at the end of the season. The Bundesliga is very uncompetitive in my opinion, because almost no team is able to break Munich dominance. Munich is the single most difficult team to beat in the Bundesliga, because of the quality of players, squad depth and top manager all at his disposal. Big wins are common for Munich, because Munich has always performed consistently in the Bundesliga over the last few years. |

It is a big disappointment by Liverpool. I was very confident about them to defeat Fulham truthfully but they couldn't.
The premier League is full of surprises, that is what keeps it exciting...all the teams big or small play to win regardless of who they meet, they show no respect, and if care is not taken by a big team, they can suddenly find themselves losing three points. Liverpool were lucky to have even gotten a point. Klopp is still trying to respect Firminho else i don't see any reason why he is starting as their striker when Nunez is clearly hungry to make his mark in every game. It may be too early to say, but i think Liverpool against Fulham did not look like a team that can win the premier League this season. It was unexpected, when many people bet for Liverpool's victory, instead had to settle for a 2-2 draw after trailing twice against Fulham, Moh Salah saved Liverpool from defeat in the first match of the season. Fulham played quite well in this match, the pressure that was exerted was very troublesome for the Liverpool defense. The strength that had just been built seemed to mean nothing to Fulham, even though in the previous match Liverpool managed to shave Manchester City in the Community Shield, Jurgen Klopp had to be content to see his team bring home a point in their first match. |

Another advantage of the Barcelona squad is that most of the current players are players who have a high desire to strengthen the team. This can be a motivation in itself for them to do their best. Because if players have a high desire to defend the team, usually they will perform optimally in every match.
The loyalty of Barcelona's players is unquestionable, Christensen, Kessie, Kounde, Lewandowski and Raphinha are new players who really want to strengthen Barcelona. Before they officially joined Barcelona, there were several clubs who really wanted to sign them, but they rejected it and preferred to join Barcelona. Their intention to strengthen Barcelona will be a plus for Xavi, when they are given minutes to play they will play with all their heart and give their best to help the team. In my opinion, Xavi job is very easy this season because he has players who have loyalty to the team. |

It is natural that the rivalry between the two teams cannot be avoided. When Barcelona have now shown their quality is improving I believe the presence of Barcelona returning to an ideal formation will certainly make Real Madrid wary and do more than what they did last season. These two clubs will improve each other's performance, regardless of which of the two is superior, it will be worthy of being champions. The season is about to start and journey after journey will begin.
Barcelona increased their strength but Real Madrid made no effort to increase their strength. Real Madrid wanted to sign Mbappe, but they failed. So they will depend on Benzema's performance in the next season as well. If Benzema and Vini can play well, Real Madrid will definitely try their best to win the title. Madrid's attack depends on these two players. Are you kidding. Benzema and Vinicius could not deliver a win without the support of other players. Football is a team game, not individuals, all the players involved in the squad have to put in a good performance to get the win. It is useless Benzema and Vinicius play well and always score goals while the back line is very fragile and easily penetrated by opposing players. I have no doubts about their quality, but the role of other players is also very important in the team. |

I have to say that I haven't actually liked PSG as a team so far because the harmony or the teamwork just never worked for me. But yesterday's game against Nantes was really great and the players played really well together. Maybe they are finally ready and will be a favorite for the CL too? Especially the new coach brings a lot of positive things!
With the quality of the squad they have, PSG will always be the favorites in the Champions League, players in the ranks of PSG will cause jealousy for other clubs. Every time the draw is made, other clubs hope not to meet PSG for fear of being slaughtered by top players in the PSG squad. The fact PSG can't do much in the Champions League, PSG always fails to be the best in the most prestigious league on European soil. This time PSG will try their luck again with a new coach, if they can't build chemistry between players, PSG will fail again in the Champions League this season. |

Have you ever seen a small child whose parents forbade him not to play in the mud, no matter how hard the parents forbid the child will not hear because playing in the mud is his hobby. Human nature will not disappear even though it has grown up, something that was forbidden would become his hobby. Gambling has become something that is difficult to separate from humans, from cities to remote areas we can still find people who gamble. Gambling is not the goal of one's life, but rather to entertain oneself to relieve boredom from being tired of working. A person's adrenaline will change when gambling, the excitement of gambling can refresh the brain, that's why so many great people and officials are always active in gambling because it can increase enthusiasm and passion back to normal.

This match is certainly going to be a tough match because Patrick Viera is aware of the fact that Arsenal are very good upfront now,and can as well be a strong side defensively.They conceded few goals last season and were strong till the end if the season.Palace will try as much as they could,but they won't be able to defeat Arsenal because the Arsenal team is so strong now and they are not ready to accept defeat. Nothing is impossible for 90 minutes. Arsenal have a higher chance of winning because of the quality of their players, but Crystal Palace can also win if they are good at taking advantage of every opportunity that is created in attack. Gabriel Jesus is indeed quite good as a striker for Arsenal, he may have good finishing stats as a striker, but believe me Arsenal can still lose if there are many chances and well taken advantage of by Crystal Palace players. Arsenal have the potential to win today for the start of the season, I'll be looking forward to that. After strengthening his squad by bringing in several big names in the transfer market this summer, Arsenal immediately On Fire in some of the preseason matches he was living. After a spectacular run in preseason matches, Arsenal certainly want optimal results in the opening match, Arsenal newly built strength will be a tough test for Crystal Palace. Compared to Palace, Arsenal is clearly more convincing. In addition, seeing their explosions in preseason, it's only natural that the Gunners are favorites to go through this opener brilliantly. |

This man has suffered the consequences of his greed, he seems to forget or ignore some important messages in managing his finances when betting, betting with borrowed money is always not recommended and he looks down on this message. The real bet is not how much money we deposit into the bookie, but we have to bet against the passion that always drives us to win big money. Every bet carries a capital risk and gamblers are generally advised not to bet more than they can afford to lose.

Confusion, confusion and confusion. Barca mentor Xavi believes Aubameyang should remain with the crew while we've heard talk that Barca have offered Frenkie de Jong, Aubameyang and Memphis to Chelsea. Chelsea have intrigued on signing Aubameyang as potential new striker. Things quite clear as Barca will play Lewandowski as replacement of him, considering the amount they play for Lewandowski. The Barca transfer market is still on fire, being financial stability they have to sell their players.
De Jong became the first player who was most widely rumored to be leaving Barcelona this season because Barcelona had to maintain their financial stability. Depay, who has no guarantee of playing minutes, has also been invited to find a new club, reportedly Tottenham are very interested in signing Depay. Aubameyang doesn't want to leave despite an offer from Chelsea and Xavi wants to keep him. But Barcelona will consider selling Aubameyang if Chelsea can make an offer that satisfies Barcelona side. |

Yes, Milan squads are very more active than Udinese in this season because Milan coach is seriously working to ensure his players get it right to embrace this season title and still remain the strong team in this Italian league competition. It will be difficult for Udinese to take first position in this season competition, because Milan has different strategies they used to defeat any strong teams in this Italian league competition like the way they did to eliminated many teams in last season to remain the best team in the season which they will definitely apply those strategies in this season to win the title.
Although several things favor Milan from various sides, Stefano Pioli could not take this match lightly. Some time ago the two met at the San Siro, Milan played with a full squad such as Giroud, Leao, Diaz, and Messias but what happened was that Udinese was able to hold Milan to a draw. And if I'm not mistaken in the last three match of the two, each is only satisfied with a draw. This is a note for Milan, as they don't want to lose points in their opening Serie A match for some time. Milan should not be careless when competing with Udinese, because previously Udinese had troubled Milan several times, the last one was at the San Siro and Milan had to be willing to share points with Udinese. Milan will be seeded in the Serie A opener, Stefano Pioli can't go wrong in the first game of the season, as Udinese also want a win in their opener. Stefano Pioli's strategy was immediately tested by a team that always troubled Milan, three points had to be secured by Milan so that its status as Serie A champions last season was not polluted. |

Marc Cucurella who was outstanding last season with Brighton, made Man City very interested in signing Cucurella. Even Man City sold Oleksandr Zinchenko to be able to give a place to Marc Cucurella, unfortunately Man City don't want to raise their bid above £40 million, Chelsea took advantage of this by hijacking Cucurella. Chelsea reportedly dared to bid higher than Man City, therefore Chelsea's offer of £55 million was approved by Brighton. Now that Marc Cucurella is reportedly one step away from joining Chelsea, Cucurella only needs to undergo a medical test. If the medical tests are completed and run smoothly, then Marc Cucurella will officially move to Chelsea. Marc Cucurella's move to Chelsea will be the third new signing by Chelsea in the transfer market this year. Previously, Raheem Sterling and Koulibaly had been obtained by Chelsea first.Hopefully Marc Cucurella can already be played by Chelsea against Everton. Because Cucurella as a left-back is very good at defending and can also help attack, so it will help Chelsea to beat Everton. Chelsea suddenly chased Cucurella from Brighton in the transfer market this summer, previously Manchester City were also in the hunt for the former Barcelona player. Reportedly, Cucurella has agreed a transfer to Chelsea, with a tag of 55 million pounds + an additional bonus of 7 million pounds. Cucurella who is able to play at left back and left midfielder will enliven the competition in Chelsea's left sector, because Chelsea already had Marcos Alonso and Ben Chilwell in the same position. The arrival of Cucurella has further strengthened the rumors of Alonso's departure to Barcelona, and he also has no intention of playing again with Chelsea, While Chilwell has just recovered and returned to play, after a long absence due to injury last season. Chilwell is clearly worried about Cucurella because his position as a main player will be threatened, but who will fill the first squad is up to Tuchel as their coach. |

This week will be the debut for players who have just joined the English Premier League team. Surely all are also looking forward to what they will be like if they play in the English Premier League. In pre-season, they are still quite difficult to adapt to the team in particular. And in official matches lest they make the same mistakes as in their test matches. Haaland and Nunez are the players who will be in the spotlight the most.
The spotlight immediately fell on Haaland and Nunez in the Community Shield, these two players had different fates in that match. When the Premier League begins, players who have just joined their new clubs will be a showcase of their skills to attract the attention of their fans and coaches. In particular Haaland and Nunez have proven their quality in pre-season and Community Shield matches, they immediately blended in with their new club, although Haaland failed to get his first title, but he has earned a place in the main squad led by Guardiola. |

People start to believe in Barcelona more about this season indeed. Not only Xavi's current system but also his transfer moves so far have been very effective in this. They are going to be under pressure because of this as well but I trust them about handling this pressure very well. Xavi is a Barcelona legend and he knows what the supporters expect from them well. Real Madrid had better get prepared strongly for this season because they have a very serious competitor in the title race.
Trust is growing again after Barcelona made big transfers this season, despite being in a lot of debt, Barcelona were able to bring in top European players. Before the new season officially started, Barcelona had improved all lines with top class players. Barcelona's attack speed will be sharper this season, the arrival of Raphinha will increase Barcelona's pounding power on the right wing, Xavi also has quality players on the left, Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. Both of them are quite agile, especially Ansu Fati who is proven sharp in scoring goals. Real Madrid will have a balanced opponent or even Barcelona can exceed Real Madrid's strength this season. Ancelotti must prepare his team to face the new power of his eternal rival team. |
