Arsenal has a good chance to take over the young lads are ready you could see the zeal and passion.
Manchester United getting bad results game after game...Weatham can get better but they don't seem to get into the top four anytime soon.

Looking at the list of standings
Man Utd has played 27x and got 47 points, West Ham played 27x and got 45 points while Arsenal has played 24x and got 45 points

4th position has been locked by arsenal, as long as in all the matches ahead they can win and without losing. the arsenal players must show good spirit and also a strong determination to enter the 4th rank

I'm pretty sure about one thing that there is no way Manchester United are pulling away from the other teams by holding the fourth place in the standings. Because they still make very simple mistakes and lose points against teams that are not too hard to beat. Watford were among them but it ended in a goalless draw. Manchester United had so many dangerous attacks in fact but all of them ended sadly for them. They have many capable players as for scoring but they still can have this kind of problems now. This must be really annoying.

Manchester City win against Everton is very much needed for them and proved that they have the champion's mentality in that team DNA. One of such is the ability to win dirty. Scraping a win even in a seemingly difficult circumstance. It is true that Manchester City this season don't have a prolific or top striker but somehow they have been able to pull through and string wins together and that is what champions do.

I am also surprised by the Man United players who have very good goal-scoring qualities, but couldn't score a single goal against a weak team like
Watford. If we look at the statistics of the match where Man United controlled the ball up to 68% and managed to take a kick up to 22 times.
This proves the Man United players did not work hard when facing Watford, Man United players should show their motivation to be able to win
the game, considering that Man United need a lot of points to fight for 4th place. But they threw away the opportunity when they faced Watford,
and that's a very disappointing thing especially for his supporters. If we look at Man United's performance against Watford, I am increasingly pessimistic
that they will be able to compete for the 4th position. Looks like Man United have to prepare not to play in the Champions League next season,
if they don't improve their form soon in the remaining games of the season.

You said it all, maybe Manchester United play didn't take the game serious. Manchester United Is so big to have struggled to score Watford and in all they still didn't score any goal.any game that Manchester United takes serious you would know by there performance , that of yesterday not taking very serious at all that's is why it ended like. The only luck Manchester United had is that Watford did score goals.

Arsenal and Tottenham have still more chance than Manchester United and West Ham for the fourth spot in the standings now. Because Arsenal have three missing matches and Tottenham have two. And the point gap with Manchester United - West Ham duo is really small. When they play all of their missing matches, they can get ahead of that duo and we can watch a bigger competition between Arsenal and Tottenham maybe. But it is still hard to be sure about something. Because none of these teams are very consistent these days.

[Desmong]

Manchester United getting things bad game after game, the job if Rangnick was at list to finish top four.
I think Manchester United are below standard, an overhaul needs to be done and scrap the full team.
I don't see them hungry for success, such a dull team, a high profile player will come and gets he's playing style below good.

[cryptofrka]

What a great cup final yesterday - nervewracking for the fans of both clubs but fantastic for the general audience.

I am really thrilled that we won, even if it is 'just' a Mickey Mouse cup. I'm also really happy for Kelleher - he's a terrific goalie.

What to say about Kepa? Horrible penalty performance, and Mendy was their Man of the match. I would have never taken him off.

The only luck Manchester United had is that Watford did score goals.

Not only did they not take Watford seriously, Man United had problems with teamwork. Most Man United players are very selfish when they
enter the penalty box, they will force a kick, although there are other players whose positions are vacant. So we can see when facing Watford,
Man United's shot reached 22 times, but only 3 times towards goal. If Man United does not change their playing style, it will be difficult to win.
Whereas in March Man United will face strong teams, such as Man City, Tottenham and Liverpool. Not to mention that Man United will face Atletico
in the second leg of the Champions League. Man United should have won against a weak team like Watford and didn't throw away points by failing
to win against Watford. Now Man United have to prepare to drop a lot of points going into March, having to face 4 very tough match, I predict that
from the 4 matches played by Man United in March, maybe only one match was won by Man United.

It might appear to be so for Arsenal but when you look at Tottenham, the chances that they might advance above Manchester United in the league table are pretty small. We can say this for West Ham United but its more unlikely to be the case for Manchester United. Spurs haven't been a very consistent team, just as Manchester United but, when they win these days, it comes with a good goal margin.

It's been a while since Arsenal made it to the top four and with Manchester United's performance this season, I think Arsenal just found there ticket to the UCL.

True, even though they are in the top 5 of the standings, their performance is far from expectations. Their game starting from the back, middle and front is nothing promising. I see only goalkeepers who have the best performance so far.
Manchester United has long lost its fangs, even against small teams can not get satisfactory results.

The Carabao Cup was one of its kind after a tough struggle between Chelsea and Liverpool which ended in a goal less draw and resulted to a 10-11 penalty shoot out giving Liverpool a well deserved win. Liverpool made the game an interesting one afterall. No one will deny Liverpool deserve what the got they play for a straight win but luckily the won through penalty shoot out

Surprisingly, despite the zero score of regular and extra time, it was one of the brightest cup matches. It was clear from the game that both teams wanted this trophy, but in the end everything had to be decided in the lottery. By the way, the penalty shootout also came out amazing - 20 hits without a single miss. Considering that the average penalty conversion rate is just above 75%, this is a very rare result.

Manchester United may still have good chances from the upcoming matches that is if their score more goals, they have played 27 matches won 8 out of this matches but with few goal sores which have made their points on the table to drop, but if more goals are scored in future matches it will go a long way to push the clubs up a little on the table.

[D-law]

It came to my notice that the coach of Leeds United has been sacked by the club.
To me he's been a big impact to the young lads and the entire fans and team, from the championships down to the first season in the premier league... I'll always remember him with sipping coffee while squatting.
I think huge losses from Manchester United, Liverpool and Leeds United didn't cost him he's job but loss of key players when he needed them they had injuries, he has to go because results are nothing getting better.
Good luck to him ahead.

Manchester united have not been convincing this season so far and I don't think they are a high scoring side. They seemingly have players who can score goals no doubt but they fall below the bar on game days.
There is a problem at Manchester united and it is worse because the club don't know what it is really and are quick to look for a scapegoat. The game against Watford just summed up the performance of United season so far. Making top 4 will be a miracle if they keep playing like this.

[izsara]

Well, you can't blame anyone and especially goalkeepers for missing a penalty. Everyone is under huge pressure and after 11 rounds things get worse..

Yeah that's for sure. I also understand that but you know some guys or trolls never stop it... They always mock whatever chance they get. Still I would say well played Chelsea and Liverpool. We don't see such an entertaining and thrilling cup final that often..

There will always be heavy pressure, especially for Kepa, who is indeed a kick that can be said to be the last executioner for Chelsea and on the other hand he also has to withstand kicks from Liverpool players.
and I quite agree with what you said, no one is to blame for this and Chelsea and the fans have to understand about that because this is also not a wish because everyone wants to win but on the other hand in two teams playing there has to be a winner and someone has to win. the loser

Arsenal have 3 games in hand with 45 points currently which means the maximum points that they could earned are 54pts while manchester united and west ham sitting at 4th and 5th with 47 & 45pts.
Huge advantage for arsenal who will have to face watford , leicester and liverpool.

Realistically they would beat watford , get a draw with leicester and losing to liverpool , 4 points realistically which it's still bring them to the top 4.

Maybe Rangnick using a different strategy to on-front players for not giving a ball to Ronaldo if they have the opportunity to shoot on goals.

If Rangnick really uses the strategy as you said, I think it is a big mistake. Ronaldo is a goal machine in every team he played, just look at how many goals he scored every season previously. It is very unfortunate if Rangnick doesn't want to take advantage of the big skills owned by Ronaldo in making scores. One of the reasons to bring Ronaldo to Man United is to have an experienced central forward in making goals. Ronaldo is a perfect central forward to make many goals for Man United. Now, it is about how to deliver good assists to Ronaldo, then he can be easier to make goals.

I think label with goal machine for Cristiano Ronaldo on very team he played have been over and now is not his era any more. With over age almost 38 years old Primer League ia not as matching competition for him, need full working if want to be success on Primer League not only asking for creating goal, Cristiano Ronaldo need to help his friend team how can keep help on defensive area. I tjink with Cristiano Ronaldo present close for young player ahow their talent and scoring goal for Manchester United.

The truth is Ronaldo is not as fast and clinical like he was few years ago. The Ronaldo of today do miss a "sitter" quite easily and that is unlike him. Lets not mention his free kicks and ofcourse his penalty of late.
I still believe Ronaldo is obviously better that many central forward and would be good at it with united but the problem is Manchester united is not like City who got players that can really give good passes consistently.

West Ham managed to get a win, and they are trying to at least maintain their current position in 5th place in the standings. But Arsenal continued to follow with the acquisition of the same points, which is 45. But Arsenal really benefited from their remaining matches, which was 3 matches. If they are able to maximize all three, 9 points are already in hand, that means they can shift West Ham and also Manchester United.

West Ham United for me, already have a great season. Not many foresaw this incredible run they have had this season but again we all know the beauty of league competition is its marathon nature. It's never how fast you start the race, it is the ability to maintain the momentum. Arsenal obviously started slowly but are fast becoming the favorite to clinch the 4th place. Again, experience is coming handy in the race for top 4 and this where West Ham is deficient but not withstanding, if they keep winning games they might as well get it.

Actually they are currently in the middle of a good second season for them.
The 2019/2020 season they are in 16th position and the 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 season they managed to make their game very good and it can even be said this season a lot of people say that Westham is one of the dark horse clubs.
But maybe this season they are also likely to finish in the same position as before, which is in position 6 because most likely positions 4 and 5 will be filled by MU and Arsenal.
