Chelsea destroyed Norwich in todays match.7-0 for Chelsea its like they are playing against a group of kids.So many mistakes by Norwich players plus even a red card and now they are humiliated.This team will o most 99% get relegated this year for sure.
I expected 4 goals from Chelsea in this match. Chelsea performed better than my expecation. Great strategy and great gameplay. Chelsea's players dominated the entire match. Chelsea did not allow Norwich to create any chances to attack. Chelsea is now the highest scorers this season with 7 goals in this match. They have scored 23 goals in 9 matches. Second-placed Liverpool have scored 22 goals in 8 matches. |

From Australia perspective David Warner form should be their main concern. Not much game time in the IPL and looked ugly in warm up games too.
If Australia wants to reach the semi-finals, they will need Warner's help. He is a very experienced player. If he gets back to form, the team in Australia will be strong again. If Aaron Finch and Warner can start the match well, and are able to do a good partnership Australia can easily beat any team. f the openers can't perform well, the big collection is very tough for the Batsmen. |

Chelsea is playing a home match against Norwich today. Norwich is the last team in the points table. So it is easy to assume that the match will be one-sided and Chelsea will win. And hopefully everyone is betting today for Chelsea to win. Chelsea went ahead 2-0 in just 18 minutes. My expectation is that Chelsea will score at least 4 goals in this match. Norwich has yet to make an attack. Moreover, I do not expect Norwich to be able to score any goals through Chelsea's strong defense.

South Africa gave only a target of 119 runs. Australia needs less than 6 runs per over to win. South Africa lost their first wicket by 13 runs at the start of the match. They lost 3 wickets in 23 runs. After that they could not come in the truck. Throughout the match, we have seen the dominance of the Australian bowlers. Australia seemed weak before the World Cup, but looking at their performance in today's match, it seems that they are the favorites of this World Cup.

Maybe Namibia is playing well, but their players are not experienced. If we compare with Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The Sri Lankan team is now weak because management has failed to find a suitable replacement for them after their experienced players retired. Now there are a lot of inexperienced players in the team. On the other hand, although there are many talented players in the Bangladesh team, their performance is not regular. This is the main problem of the team. However, their young players are playing quite well.
Namibia current form is good, and they can do some good as they have few very aggressive and good players, but I am not agreed about their bright future because we have some very good performance from Kenya and Zimbabwe but sadly after very short period these both teams disappear from sight and currently Namibia is also in same way their local setup is not good enough like South Africa which can bring some good talented players they need to do some good work for this all right now main problem is their quota system and restrictions between white and black players it's really hurting their all system very badly if these countries can settle these things then surely they will be able to have some good future in cricket. Zimbabwe's career was very good. They have been destroyed only because of the internal troubles of their management and because of the stupidity of the management. Their team had lots of talented players. Many players retire due to management problems and it also hinders the creation of talented new young players. If Namibia's management is experienced, and they really want to improve their domestic cricket, then maybe in the future they will be able to challenge teams like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan. |

Next summer, FC Barcelona will compete with Madrid for the signing of Kylian Mbappé. Following the report, Barcelona are willing to pay €90m for the signing of the player. Barcelona could barely fire Koeman, but how could they afford Mbappe? The club wants to sign anything living. It is very likely they will abandon this race very soon. BTW! The decision about Mbappe's impending move has been made already - he knows where he will land next year.
It is clear that Mbappe is going to Madrid (couldn't think of any other club linked to him right now). I understand news of Barcelona coming in between Madrid an Mbappe transfer but I hardly think it would happen. Barca is not that broke IMO. In last transfer window, just near the last day there were strong reports of them making a bid around 70-80 mil mark for Leipzig winger Dani Olmo. Mbappe will be linked to all major clubs in next couple months. It is not often that we have a superstar, who is also very young, nearing the end of the contract. Every major club will try to feel the player but I am thinking Real is only real possibility apart from staying in PSG. Mbappe already said that he would like to continue his career there and knowing Perez he already agreed something with the player. Other clubs will only send offers as way to make Real pay more, if you are Barca it is better for you to raise Mbappe appetites and make Real spend more  Two things over here. First Barca is so broke that they cannot even afford the sacking of their manager, then how can they afford to sign Mbappe for €90 million and on top of that pay his humongous salary? Secondly, Real already bid €180 million for him last transfer window only to be rejected, so what makes the reporter think that they'll accept their half the bid of that of Real Madrid? |

If Juventus have found a suitable replacement for Dybala then it's possible that he could be thrown out as well if the injury is prolonged but I think he can recover and play an important role for Juventus because he is a sharp striker.
It's just a rumor so I don't think Juventus will sell him any time soon because Dybala fits perfectly with Chiesa or Morata.
If the Ramsey is sold, is there a replacement for it?
Or has Juve already determined the candidate?
You know, Dybala is still an integral and important part of Juventus. Though he is not their main striker, he plays more of a roll of a 2nd striker or a support striker, there is no doubt in his capabilities. Last few seasons he hasn't been able to shine so much is because the scoring duty was on Ronaldo. Now that he's gone, Dybala now has the scoring duty again. Hope he returns soon on the pitch and shows what he's capable of. And about the Ramsey transfer, I don't know much about it. |

very bad news for all borussia dortmung fans. as was announced today, E. Haaland will be missing from the club for several weeks due to injury and whether he will be playing this year will also be very unlikely  in addition, other players (Nico Schulz and Thomas Meunier) are injured and will be out this week/next week https://www.kicker.de/bvb-mehrere-wochen-ohne-haaland-875902/artikelBig bad news for Dortmund fans. Dortmund have several important matches next month. If they don't win the matches, they will fall behind. Dortmund will play against FC Koln, Leipzig and Wolfsburg next month in the Bundesliga. It will be difficult to win these matches without Haaland. On the other hand, they will play against Ajax and Sporting CP in the Champions League. If Haaland is not in the team, Dortmund will lose both these matches. Horrible month waiting for Dortmund fans. |

Just look at the Namibia's squad. I believe in the next few years they will be able to overtake teams like Bangladesh and Sri Lanka unless teams like Bangladesh and Sri Lanka fail to organize themselves better. I have watched Namibia’s past two matches against the Netherlands and Ireland. They played excellent. They have won today's match quite well. They are 19th in the ICC rankings. I believe in a few years they will come to 10/12 of the ranking.
I slightly agree with you. Maybe Namibia is playing well, but their players are not experienced. If we compare with Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The Sri Lankan team is now weak because management has failed to find a suitable replacement for them after their experienced players retired. Now there are a lot of inexperienced players in the team. On the other hand, although there are many talented players in the Bangladesh team, their performance is not regular. This is the main problem of the team. However, their young players are playing quite well. |

Arsenal has a strong enough motivation from trying to get up from a bad game before. moreover, they play in front of their public. the ranking position in the standings is also not far away, this will be a competition that does require there to be a winner. don't share numbers.
In this match, Aston Villa has a greater chance of stealing points.
Right now any game is of high importance for Arsenal. After a disastrous start to the season, they have to give everything in every game, to be able to remove the bad image they will leave. On the other hand, due to the classification so close, the game against Aston Villa will not be easy. It will certainly be a very low-key game, and a good game to watch. I think their 5 unbeaten matches will be a major source of motivation in today's match with a win or at least draw, after putting behind the poor start of the season, playing today's match against Aston Villa at home will give them an edge over their opponent who are equally a mediocre side, Aston Villa though can be a hard nut to crack at times just like when they played Man Utd, I expect Arsenal not to expect an easy game likewise if they really want to win thus no room for complacent or any error. Arsenal's performances over the past few matches have been much better than at the start of the season, but Austin Villa are not a weak team at all. If we compare them with Arsenal this season, it will be clear. Arsenal has scored 7 goals and conceded 12 goals in 8 games this season. The defense is weaker than their striker. Aston Villa, on the other hand, has scored 12 goals and conceded 12 in 8 matches. Their defense is good enough. While Arsenal is mentally strong, Aston Villa is not a weak opponent. |

I don't see it will happen next season Manchester has had players with quality above average Now the task is in the coach, how to bring together all players to remain solid
Yesterday we saw how Manchester did it in the Champions League if this can be done in EPL I'm sure MU can be stronger
Manchester United have a strong forward and midfield lineup. But their defense is relatively weak. Moreover, strikers and midfielders have not been able to perform well for some time. But every player is talented. Manchester will be stronger if the coach can build the bond between the players properly, formation and match strategy properly. We saw great gameplay in yesterday's match. Manchester United will be unstoppable in the EPL if this trend continues. Manchester United do not have a game plan, they have never dominated any of the games they have won this season, and their defenders are not weak, as you stated, they have one of the best defenders in the league. Their problem is structure, and if the right structure is in place, they will be able to turn around their defensive disaster. In their last 19 games, they've only kept one clean sheet. Manchester United's defenders are weak. Maybe they are star players. They are very experienced. But they are not performing well now. Let's take a look at the statistics this season, Manchester United have played 8 matches this season, they have scored 16 goals. So far so good. But they have conceded 10 goals in 8 matches. No other team at the top of the points table has conceded so many goals. Would you call this defense strong even after conceding so many goals? |

But I still disagree with the fact that Barcelona has practically equal chances with Real Madrid. I think in this pair we should bet on a simple victory for Real, it's easy money.
I'm pretty sure it's not about the odds but the Catalan Fans. It goes without saying that after the departure of their iconic striker, Barça lost ground, but depay is doing his best and hardcore fans understand this, and I am sure that they will have a "warm" welcome to Real Madrid. In addition to all of the above, Barca has not won this Derby for more than two years, so a victory would definitely cheer up the whole team, [Although I was betting on Real].  And after all there are still the fans as you said. it is a home game for Barcelona. If this were a game on neutral grounds, I would totally agree that Real Madrid would definitely be the favorite. But it is what it is: a home game for Barcelona and Real Madrid neither is the super power it used to be. They are the better team of the two fallen giants. Depay is indeed awesome enough to also score brilliantly. I do agree there is a slight edge for Madrid, but calling it easy money certainly goes a bit too far. I would not actually call it easy money. Real and Barca both haven't been that good after the recent transfer window. Barca lost their star Messi and Real lost their 2 best defenders Ramos and Varane. And after that, both the teams are somewhat inconsistent. Yes, Barca has been worse than Madrid as they are having issues scoring but even Real lost to a comparatively smaller team like Sheriff. Yes, Madrid has a slight edge (not much though) over Barca in this one but I wouldn't say that they will win 100% of the time. |

I don't know if Manchester United would still sack ole after they came back with a fantastic turn around yesterday against atalanta, and again cristiano ronaldo was their hero in the UEFA champions league night, but Manchester United can't be letting those amounts of goals they are conceding In the champions league and in the league I think the have one of the worst defense amongst english premier league top ten teams now.
After winning the Champions League match, Manchester United's management does not seem to be dismissing Ole now. Moreover it takes time to work with new teams and new players. Give Ole some more time, he'll be able to take the team to a better position. However, Manchester United's biggest problem at the moment is that their defense is very weak. The defender is able to perform well while playing well against a weak team, the performance against a strong team is poor. |

What a match between Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid! We noticed Griezmann's dominance throughout the match. Griezmann has scored two goals for Atletico Madrid. And in the 52nd minute of the match he saw a red card and is now out of the field. A perfect match. Atletico Madrid is now playing with 10 players. Liverpool should attack more and win this match. Let's see what will happen next.
It happened as you expected. Liverpool managed to score one more goal. The goal was scored by Mohammad Salah. But he scored from the penalty spot. Liverpool is now 3-2 up. Since Atletico Madrid has played with 10 players now, it is very difficult for Atletico Madrid to score a goal now. On the other hand, PSG is leading by 3-2. Messi scored two goals for PSG and Mbappe scored the other one. In addition to Neymar and Di Maria, PSG is showing great gameplay today. |

It's a gamble from Phoenix. Ayton deserves the max deal. He's one of the reason why they play in the finals.
If he stays healthy till next season, for sure we will see lots of courting offers for him. Stay humble and play well. It's Suns loss if he chooses to play
with a different uniform next season. Or, there are underground deal or something that gives him perks that will let him enjoy staying with the Sun,
unknown deal behind to cover that max deal issue, we never know, right?
I don't know if an underground deal is happening in the NBA, I think all the deals are transparent as it's a basis for the taxation. If Ayton would choose to play with other team after his contract expires, then we can assume that he is getting better offer than with the Phoenix, he is still young and at his age it's important for him to sell himself well so he can maximize his income while he is fully healthy. I doubt that there will be underground deal or under the table deal in NBA. Of course, he says that he wanted to stay with Phoenix, but with the current development he is really disappointed with how the management handles his case. Definitely Bridges getting a good extension and his other 2018 draftees getting tons of money, extensions and perks, maybe Ayton performance will be impacted by this news. For sure he still needs to play better this season for Phoenix so that he will have to get a better deal outside. And then we will see what happens next. I also think underground deals won't be happening in NBA. Because if that's done and the management doing it is exposed, they are very well aware of the consequences. What Ayton has to do now is not let that news get the better of him and train hard on the training days and try to improve his lackings. This season will be an important one in general for his career and I hope he will be able to do well. |

After winning the toss today, Sri Lanka sent Namibia to bat. Namibia is a weak team, Sri Lanka does not want to make any mistake against them. They are not as stupid as the Bangladesh team. Batting first, Namibia managed to set a target of 97 runs. And in t20 format,at the same time it is a batting supportive pitch, so it is a very low target. Yet my idea is that the Sri Lankan players will play very consciously and win the match.
Namibia is a very weak team. It was predictable to win Sri Lanka with them. It is no surprise that Namibia lost all their wickets for just 96 runs. The Sri Lankan bowler is good enough. However, Sri Lanka lost their first 3 batsmen by just 26 runs. Since the target is very low, the batsmen should have batted with patience. I don't see any difference between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Both inexperienced and weak. |

Tottenham beat Newcastle United 3-2. In the match, Tottenham scored all the goals in the first half. Harry Kane assisted in Son's goal. An unfortunate incident occurred during the match. A fan suffered a heart attack. Fortunately, he/she’s fine. I can't say that I like Tottenham's purple footbal uniform. Did you like Tottenham’s uniform in this match?
Just curious how the new owner feeling after the loss. maybe they have a sudden meeting to change a coach or prepare to make the list to buy a lot of players at winter windows transfer. So far Tottenham playing well, Son's enough productive than Kane, with 4 goals in 8 matches, while Kane only has 1 goal atm. I like the uniform, looks comfortable when compared with green grass on the fields. The last game of the week, Arsenal vs Crystal Place. (2-1) for Arsenal. To be honest, I kind of like the purple color. It's well saturated and as you said, on the green grass, players will be able to easily spot their teammates. The cardiac arrest incident was very unfortunate. I heard the news that a Tottenham player spotted the incident and told the referee to stop the game and send a medic immediately which is a very humane gesture. But I'm glad that the guy is now okay. One thing is that we shouldn't expect big stuff for Newcastle already, maybe give them some time and let them organize themselves as things are rapidly changing over there. |

Villarreal lost a home match to Osasuna yesterday. The match ended with a 1-2 score in victory to Osasuna. Villarreal dominated the game, but scoring wasn't easy for them. The first half ended with Osasuna leading with a goal, but Villarreal equalized the game 10 minutes into the second halves. However, Àvila was able to come through with a smart goal in the 87 minutes, which probably became he first goal in 21 months. Osasuna performance lately have been impressive, they won 5 matches in 8 games. And are currently at the 5th place on the League table.
Although Osasun won, I liked Villarreal's play style. They have possess the ball more. At the same time, Villarreal has made more attacks than Osasuna. I would have been happy if Villarreal had won. Osasuna is now fifth in the points table with 17 points from 9 matches. This season's title fight will be tough if teams like Real Sociedad and Sevilla don't lose form in the middle of the season. |

I wish football was as easy as recapitalization of the club and results are seen the following day,but this is far from reality. But of course Newcastle is expected to be a more competitive club after this then they are today. And because positive results will be what the new owners will want to see,I fear for players that have grown with the club as the club will be importing new talents away from the club.
Is this transfer of ownership done and dusted....
Looking at Newcastle United current standings after 8 matches, I believe if there were no financial fair constraints they would have immediately bought some star players when the transfer window opened. because every rich team will do whatever it wants to improve performance without thinking about the cost and many rich teams have achieved instant success by practicing star player expense. and it is unlikely that a player who grew up with the team will be retained unless he is someone who is loved by the fans and has great talent Newcastle now has a lot of money. But they can't take star players in the team if they want to. No star player is interested in joining a team who is in the relegation zone. At the same time, there is no reason to think that only adding good players to the squad will improve their performance. Their coach Steve Bruce is not very experienced. Newcastle now need experienced coaches and experienced players at the same time. |
