It was indeed the best time for Man City to play against Newcastle after a difficult first leg which led to six goals all together.
It's Newcastle's nature to do well and play in an organized way
The game against, Bournemouth, United they did so. Man City did what need to be done to chase Arsenal

Arsenal are feeling the pressure from the Manchester City I think they conceded in 11 seconds. Bournemouth had the ball from kick off and quick passing ripped Arsenals defense apart. Arsenal have been playing better like I mentioned but they are still looking like they will struggle to score. Bournemouth could score another on the counter attack because we are struggling to contain their quick passing.

With the formation and structure of Bournemouth Arsenal will not break the defense and midfielder's easily today let me just agree to the fact that I am having my bet going casted.
For defender's five midfielder's is almost the same way Everton defeated Arsenal when they met first this season

First half is over,and it is 1-0 Bournemouth is leading with a early goal. Arsenal are dominating and taking all possessions but they find it very difficult to break the deadlock in their opponent's post. This is a match that Arsenal must win,if not the gap between them and Manchester city is just two points.

I see Bournemouth is desperate of winning this match because you can see that in their defense, they are not allowing Arsenal to penetrate through their defense. I just hope that they would be able to defend this goal till the 90 minutes is over. I hope to see a victorious second half for Arsenal because I know that the deadlock will be broken and they might win their game.

The game between Arsenal and Bournemouth has kicked off and kicked off with a blast. Bournemouth has scored a goal within seconds of the kickoff whistle to put them in the lead. I think that was a good move on the part of Bournemouth to score an early goal to slightly put arsenal off their game.
Arsenal is pressing harder and harder on Bournemouth goal but haven’t been able to score an equalizer so far. I think Bournemouth is playing a more defensive game than an attacking one cause Arsenal, despite having more of the ball is finding it a bit difficult to score.

The game is seemingly played just on the Bournemouth side of the pitch as Arsenal has been struggling with little success to equalize. If they put up with the attacks, they definitely would score.

The quick goal scored by Bournemouth is really a surprise and I think Arsenal defenders are not aware of the presence of Philip Billing who sneaks forward. With the advantage of one goal, it is very natural that Bournemouth prefers to play defensive football. Even though they were pounded all out by Arsenal, but their strategy seems quite successful. Besides that Bournemouth also has two pretty dangerous counterattacks, it's just that they can't take advantage of that opportunity to be the second goal.

Manchester City managed to shorten the point difference with Arsenal after getting points from winning the match against Newcastle. So of course with this result Arsenal must also be able to win the match against Bournemouth so they can continue to widen the point difference with Man City. but Arsenal should win easily enough. because Bournemouth is not a tough opponent for this season.

Due to the earliest kick in round 26, Man City has the opportunity to put pressure on the top team Arsenal - the team kicks a few hours later. Winning Newcastle 2-0 in this match, Man City is only 2 points behind Arsenal and increases the pressure on Arsenal a lot. Arsenal vs Bournemouth match is going on but it's surprising that Arsenal lost with a difference of 1 goal.
The score gap between the two teams is not much difference, and Man City still has a match against opponents at the Etihad to turn the situation around. But first, Pep Guardiola's teachers and students need to maintain stability, which they often did very well in previous seasons.

[coinerer]

Arsenal have recovered well from the early goal I thought it might make them nervous but they have nearly scored on 2 occasions but I fear the longer they go without a goal the more they will panic. Hopefully Saka can rescue us because atm we are playing the better football but Bournemouth look very good on the counter attack and we do not seem to know what to do atm. I think we might need to be more defensive in this game despite being down by a goal early on.

Nerves are bad for the players, in the previous match it really bothered Newcastle. Arsenal are starting to rush and that's bad because they're already starting to lapse in defense when Bournemouth almost scored a second goal on the counterattack. Bournemouth are in the relegation zone, points are very important for them, even one point away against Arsenal will be very significant for them. Now it is clear that they will play in defend and rely on counterattacks.

I'm honestly surprised Arsenal are 1-0 down so far. 37 minutes of the game have passed. Arsenal though are able to attack but the opposition defense is resisting brilliantly. But I believe Arsenal will be able to repay the goal.

It's sad that Arsenal are a strong team but are 1-0 behind  against a weak team like Bournemouth.  Half time is already over in the game.  It is now doubtful that Arsenal will score twice in the second half to beat Bournemouth 2-1 as Bournemouth will be desperate to protect to the goal instead of trying to score ang goal now. Arsenal had another chance today to win the match by a high margin and collect some good points to stay tighter on the number one position in the Premier League table.  Because Man city has already won 2-0 with Newcastle and is almost level with Arsenal in terms of points

They lost to Manchester City today and showed that they are a little off this level. In fact, Newcastle United have turned into a good team this season. But they need more transfers to become a better team. If the Arab capital does something about this next year, they can be among the top four teams in the Premier League. I think they need a good striker. Maybe if they make a surprise in the summer transfer window and include Mbappe in the team, we can talk about them differently next year.

Newcastle need a new striker for sure, they missed some very good opportunities they had to score and get the game level when Manchester City were just still a goal ahead, they will surely regret it as it will pose a major setback to their plans to finish fourth this season.

Manchester United are not slowing down and the gunners don't need to as well. Against AFC Bournemouth, we have to be clinical with our chances to ensure that the five point lead is maintained.

They have plenty of money now, probably the richest owner in all of sports world as of right now, so if they want to buy a striker, they can buy anyone they want.

However, financial fair play is still a thing and they can't just spend whatever they want, no idea how Chelsea did it, that was something unreal to see, I still think that something about Chelsea will come out in day light one day and they will get punished, no way a team could spend close to 600 million in a single year without having any financial fair play trouble. All in all I am guessing that the best thing for them is to just spend the max they are allowed on big names, because that will open the doors for everyone else.

Arsenal are still trying to find a goal to equalize, attacks continue to be launched but not a single effort from Arsenal players has managed to score against Bournemouth. There are still about 30 minutes of normal time left to change the score to 2-2, Arsenal must try not to lose points in this match because Manchester City has just finished the game with a win over Newcastle. His position will be increasingly threatened If Arsenal lose to Bournemouth, the gap with Manchester City will be 2 points.

Looking at the several transfers made by Newcastle, actually from last season they have been able to sign players labeled stars but it seems a little held back, but on the other hand with the current conditions it is still pretty good.
At the moment they are still choosing to look for what is needed and it is proven that some of their transfers have good prospects but indeed it is increasingly possible that there will be some good players there because as we know they are the richest club now so they can just do whatever they want.

[execijutiere]

In the first match of the day, and perhaps the most important one, it was Manchester City who won. The home team, who had the ball at their feet from the start of the match, took 3 points with 2 goals and managed to reduce the points difference with Arsenal to 2 again.
Now they will wait for Arsenal to lose points. Currently arsenal is losing 1-0 at home and I wonder if they will be able to turn the match around.

[Iroh]

Bournemouth has now scored two goals against Arsenal. Scored the second goal with a beautiful and strong header. Who would have thought!! Bournemouth is presently leading the league leaders with 2 goals to nil. I definitely didn’t see this coming.

If Arsenal loses this game, it would surely be humiliating. Presently, I still have some faith in Arsenal that they could come back and perhaps come out with a draw if not a win.
Bournemouth would definitely now play more of a defensive game than an attacking one and try to hold the game till the end.

Arsenal just score a goal but Bournemouth score 2 goals. The two teams are now fighting hard. score now 1-2. Bournemouth scored a goal in the first minute before the Arsenal players understand anything .  Which now poses a challenge for Arsenal. Arsenal are trying hard enough to score but how much they will be able to score at the last moment is still questionable. But hopefully Arsenal will not miss today's opportunity

No doubt about Arsenal strength or their strategy but today Bournemouth doing amazing job with after just 60 minutes of play now they are leading by 0 - 2 which could be big setback for the Gunners because this lost can cost them for title as well after this lost difference could be only 2 points which is surely achievable for the Manchester City which is having better strategy and performance in last few games.

84% ball possession with 16 shots on goal and still not able to score any goal and Bournemouth which is having just 16% ball possession and just 3 shots on goal are already score two goals which are surely amazing from them for this match and title race of this season as now with this win they are also out of the relegation zone for time being as well.

[Rruchi man]

It's sad that Arsenal are a strong team but are 1-0 behind  against a weak team like Bournemouth. 

The game is now 1-2, still in favour of Bournemouth. Good goal from Thomas Party to give us hope in this game, especially with the ample time still remaining on the time. Arsenal have struggled all game but hopefully this goal from Partey has broken the deadlock and we can take the advantage and get an equaliser which is still possible.  We need to remain composed and try to do better with the chances that we will create.

Bournemouth is seen as the weaker side. With what I have seen so far, Arsenal, infact Arteta has to be wary yo concede a third goal. I predicted an above 2.5goal margin, but what I hoped to see is Arsenal on the winning side. There is however still time for recovery only of Arteta could find a way to prevent Bournemouth from their various counter attack.
This would have been a great chance for Nketiah to come on and influence a goal, but with a knock, I only pray for the gunners to either finish with a win or draw at worst.

Actually, Arsenal didn't play badly, they just lacked finishing in front of the opponent's goal. But now Arsenal have started to rise by scoring 1 goal from Thomas Partney which made the score 1-2. I think Arsenal can still catch up as the game is still around 20 minutes away. At least I hope they can at least get a draw in this match and if they lose, of course it will make Arsenal's position begin to be threatened by Manchester city.

[Slow death]

Of course Arsenal concede against the worst team in the Premier League right from the kick off. How can they let that happen? It is getting checked for offside with var but I did not see a offside. If it is offside Arsenal get away with that goal because they have been caught cold and you never know how that can affect a team. Looking at the replays I think this is going to be a goal I cannot see any offside.

11 second goal awarded that might be the fastest goal I have ever seen and of course it is against Arsenal when they are top of the league

I confess that until now I can't stop laughing at this goal

Arsenal 1 - 2 AFC Bournemouth

70 minutes

before the game the odd for arsenal to win this game was @1.22, now it's @1.90, definitely things are not going well for arsenal in this game and if in the second half they don't make changes then this game will be over with Bournemouth winning. did anyone here take the risk of betting that arsenal can still win this game? or someone here has the courage to bet that Bournemouth will win this game, the odd for Bournemouth to win is @2.01


Manchester City 2 - 0 Newcastle United FC

it was a very good game to watch, manchester city dominated the game from the beginning of the game until the end of the game, did not give newcastle many spaces and with this victory city is very close to the arsenal that I think will lose points in their current game, it's unbelievable that arsenal are really wasting this great chance and city are not wasting opportunity and it won't take long for city to be at the top of the table if arsenal is being inconsistent, they manage to win in a game where scores a lot of goals and in the next game you struggle to score goals, city manage to correct their mistakes quickly, I won't be surprised if city wins the premier league

[Odusko]

AFC Bournemouth is really giving Arsenal a run off in this game, as their already recorded 2 goals to nill and for that, the time is already in the late 60+  this is a tough match for Arsenal and if care is not taken this match will end with the current goals scored already.
So at this point, it's clear that AFC Bournemouth will shave some points off Arsenal this weekend and this is also bad enough for Asernal, Manchester city won the match with 2 goals also.

[Falconer]

Arsenal are still trying to find a goal to equalize, attacks continue to be launched but not a single effort from Arsenal players has managed to score against Bournemouth. There are still about 30 minutes of normal time left to change the score to 2-2, Arsenal must try not to lose points in this match because Manchester City has just finished the game with a win over Newcastle. His position will be increasingly threatened If Arsenal lose to Bournemouth, the gap with Manchester City will be 2 points.

It might be interesting to get Arsenal in deep trouble if they do lose this match. The pressure is increasing because the 2 points from Manchester City are very close, but after all not many people are worried about Arsenal in this match even if they have to score another 2 goals to win.

Bournemouth surprised many people, of course because of their quick goal against Arsenal and they managed to get 2 goals ahead of the home team. Now it's 2-2 to this match and Arsenal look like they're going to seal this match for 3 points.

Arsenal have been putting in a great performance late on and the game is a 2-2 draw so far.  19 minutes left in the game + extra time. 4 goals hoping from Arsenal. Arsenal always prove that they are real heroes. Arsenal is a really good team

2-2 as for now. Arsenal has small chance to make the result to be drawn. Marco senesi has been adding another goal for bournemouth through the cornerkick. Arsenal is in under pressure right now caused by city was winning the game against newcastle. comeback is real for arsenal.
Chelsea is finally managed to make goal against leeds but will this gonna sustain until the end of match? I consider that if chelsea is always got stolen at the end of game and mostly due to the corner kick and counter attack.

[hahay]

The quick goal scored by Bournemouth in the first half made it difficult for Arsenal to turn things around. I really didn't expect Arsenal to find it difficult to score goals and even though Arsenal were playing at home and were also able to dominate the match, these factors did not make it easy for Arsenal to win.

Even though this match is a match that on paper will make it easier for Arsenal to get points, and to maintain the gap with Manchester City. If Arsenal cannot win this match, then I can confidently say that Arsenal will not be able to win the title because over time Arsenal's position is very likely to be taken over by Manchester City.
