Who notice something strange from those two teams yesterday Tottenham and Manchester city make people ticket to cut because people always bet for their favour, but it was a shocked game in the home of Manchester city to struggle to draw game with Chelsea 1:1 and wolves beat Tottenham to achieve victory from the game.

I guess, this is a sign that Chelsea coach has done more work to escape sack letter that is waiting for him if the team continue experiencing poor performance, but based on what happened for Chelsea players to played Manchester city like a weak team to share points with them yesterday prove to people that Chelsea is improving.

Statistically, chelsea made more shots on target compared to the city. You know what i meant if city was not dominating it even though it has very high ball possessions. If chelsea's players were not so wasteful and it would be also scoring even more than 2 goals.

I saw that chelsea players were getting chances to be 1 on 1 against goal keeper a few times.

This was a truly surprising result because Chelsea unexpectedly managed to hold City to a draw. It seems like a lot of people lost their bets on that match. I also predict City will get an easy win because KDB and Haaland have recovered from injury. But it turned out that Chelsea was able to play solidly.

Since chelsea was using fully defensive strategy against city and i knew that if chelsea will able play better against city. KDB and haaland were good game changers for city but when we are starting to analyze the result from the previous matches when city faced the defensive club and we can conclude that if city found so difficult to won against it.
The same thing was also happening to the chelsea. The main weakness from the offensive team was low block. It's not only you but many bettors were also thinking chelsea had zero chance to win the game against city but im not being denial after i saw the squad and strategy used by chelsea before the match started.

Chelsea could not take advantage of shots on target and convert them into goals. This happened because Chelsea did not have a striker with good finishing abilities. Some times they have very good opportunities but as you said, they like to waste opportunities.

Jackson and sterling are the problem. even though sterling was scoring in this game but he was also so wasteful. I remember the moment when stering was one on one against the goal keeper. I don't know what the problem is but he is missing some golden chances.
All of my credit goes to the enzo and caicedo. Chelsea is starting to pay with very quick counter attack against manchester city. I hope it will continue to perform even better than the match against city.

This season has been different, and a lot of clubs have displayed well in the past few weeks, Even the clubs that started well are now struggling; they have lost consistency. Starting with Brighton, Tottenham, and other clubs, the clubs in the top five are still the ones that made it to the top five last season. and see the way Liverpool won against Brentford it ended 4:1 and Arsenal won 5:0 I was surprised that Manchester City played a drawing game, I was not bothered because I know Manchester City will not agree this league is ours and ours alone and I don't know why we are always drawing Chelsea, in their dream to be able to beat Liverpool, did you see the way Liverpool played yesterday, They did not even give Brentford a chance all they were doing was pressure upon pressure.

And with Manchester United playing against Luton Town, anything about Manchester United can not be predicted because of their condition, and for now, I can make the mistake of even betting on them they are crap and will just spoil my ticket.

Well the EPL has always been fun and very competitive as every week it holds a major surprise. We can see how Tottenham who’re in a chase for Top 4 lost at Home to Wolves. That wasn’t expected or needed at this point especially as they’re in a tight chase with Aston Villa and having Manchester United behind them also. Liverpool and Arsenal kept on cruising to victory with both teams dominating their games real well and without stress making a statement to Manchester City.

 Man City who fell to a draw to Chelsea even with all the struggles means that some other team is going to suffer for their loss of point because I know they wouldn’t want to let the title chase slip so soon and easily. Manchester United will play away to Luton later today; this match is kind of risky especially when you judge from the fixtures of yesterday as Luton are also in a good form and will be needing a draw to give them a breathing space of relegation zone. I too wouldn’t risk giving my money to Manchester United winning rather I’ll play on about 2 goals and more to be scored in this fixture.

I am not surprised by Tottenham's defeat at home because their performance is no longer consistent and overall they are not as strong as they started this season.
The competition for the top 4 positions is quite fierce, now there are several teams that are on fire like Manchester United and that is quite dangerous for Tottenham, personally I doubt Tottenham can finish in the top 4 positions.

In fact, the big surprise that occurred this week was Manchester City's failure to win at home against Chelsea even though Chelsea were in a very bad state this season, but Manchester City was unable to take advantage of this. This was quite detrimental because Man City had the opportunity to displace Liverpool from the top of the standings.

[Stable090]

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean. You say you never doubted City would lose their next game against Chelsea, but then you say you were surprised when some people thought Chelsea would win that game?

Sorry, it was just a mistake, and I already corrected it. Thanks for calling my attention to the post.

I'm sure Chelsea will have no chance of winning that game. Even though they managed to win against Crystal Palace in the previous match, I think Chelsea only have a 10% chance of winning that match and that is if City underperform. I think it will be difficult to beat City if KDB and Haaland can appear in that match.

I never expected Chelsea to draw their match against Manchester City. With the way Chelsea have been playing poorly lately, I was expecting the match to be an easy win for Manchester City. Because they are in a tight race fighting for the first position and they have a complete squad, their two key injured players are back, I never expected a draw in the match. Chelsea played well in the match, if not for Chelsea's lack of ability to score goals, they would have won the match.

Well said but Manchester United has been the only Premier League big side in this Competition to win Chelsea so far this season, you can go redoo your checks and facts.
I loved how they did play yesterday though, with that, I'm sure they could face Liverpool in the Cup Competition Finals and take them down to the full-time without conceding. I would be glad if Chelsea of course can win that game.

With the lose of Tottenham Hotspur yesterday to Wolverampton, Manchester United can make this up and close down the gap and points between them on the standing.
Arsenal are buzzing, love how they're also scoring many goals. I'd love to see them at the top of the Premier League table at the end of the table okce again.

Almost approaching the end of the season with less than 20 games remaining, the Premier League competition has become very interesting because several clubs in the top 5 have experienced strange changes such as Manchester City ending in a draw against Chelsea and Tottenham losing against Wolves and Manchester United managing to beat Chelsea.
I'm not sure whether Chelsea can beat Liverpool because although there is no guarantee that Liverpool will win, in terms of performance, Chelsea is below Liverpool, while Klopp's club is eyeing titles in several competitions to be able to give the best prize before Klopp leaves his club.

Tottenham and Manchester United are only 6 points apart and if MU's performance remains consistent like this, everything will go smoothly because Tottenham seems to be experiencing a decline in performance which makes Tottenham uncontrollable and will definitely affect the club's draw.
There is no need to doubt that Arsenal, this club still has big ambitions to try to aim for the Premier League title this season.

Manchester United's game certainly decreases the gap that they have between Tottenham. But it is still going to be a difference of three points even if Manchester United is able to win the match. But if Manchester United is consistently enough, which is definitely very hard I think they will have a chance to forget ahead of Tottenham. But again the key is consistency. If they are not consistently enough they will not be able to get ahead. In this season Manchester United has not been able to perform very well. But in recent times Manchester United has been pretty good. Probably even better than Tottenham as well. So I believe there is a chance.

Have you seen how Hojlund performed today? He had another incredible game!    He scored 2 goals today and continued from where he left.

It is really good to see him finally starting to meet the expectations in the Premier League. Some people are comparing him to Haaland and expect a similar performance to him. But I think that it would be too much to ask. Because we don't see players like Haaland commonly. He is really a special player so it wouldn't be sensible to expect every young and promising player to perform like Haaland at early age.

But Hojlund has really been very consistent for many games. Actually I must include Garnacho's performance also. They have made a pretty good duo lately and this is valuable for Manchester United's recovery. 

[QueenVera]

 Well Tottenham started the season on a strong and fierce note but injury had it’s tow on them and since then, the team generally haven’t been able to perform well. Now they’re few points away from Top 4 but what’s more scary is the people behind them, Manchester United, they've been very consistent recently and might overtake Tottenham to be in the top 4.

 Manchester United who have been performing poorly this season have now picked up form and have been consistent over the last few matches. Now they’re about 5 points away frok the Top 4. This should scare Tottenham because Manchester United maintaining consistency will be a big problem for them. Man City draw is a big blow to them at this stage because they’re in a tight chase with Arsenal and Liverpool and now this draw has made the competition very fierce as the points are so close between all teams.

Manchester United earlier today defeated Luton Town away from home to win their match week 25 match in the English Premier League. With the win, Manchester United is currently just five points behind fourth placed Aston Villa and three points behind fifth placed Tottenham Hotspur which I think throws open the battle for the a fourth place finish between the three clubs.
League leaders Liverpool, second placed Manchester City and third placed Arsenal I think are definitely gonna finish in the top three positions of the league table at the end of the season but fight for who joins them to finish the season in the top four will be very intense if you ask me.

There are some good clubs who has done good and some mediocre clubs who have been inconsistent. The good ones are good because they win, but the mid level clubs are not mid level because they beat everyone under them and lose to everyone above them, that is the shocking part. When you see a team at 10th, you expect them to have a bad result against anyone else in the top 10, specially at the top three position, and they should beat everyone below them as well.

But, the difference this year is that, teams like Chelsea could draw against teams like City and then go draw against some relegation zone team too. That was the new part and seems like it is still going strong, fans were not ready for this inconsistency overall.

As it should have been. Luton Town are one stubborn side in the Premier League and not easy to defeat at all times. Though Manchester United have found ways to make out two fixtures count by getting the important six points from them.
It was a good game, should be well charged and ready for the the next game they'll be playing against Fulham United as they journey to Old Trafford.

Manchester City would have a game in hand to play against Brentford, if they get to win, they'll finally go above Arsenal with them leading with one point. But still do feel they will get a draw from the match.
Disasi has been the best player this weekend for me,in the absence of Thiago Silva, he's been a good leader for athe backline.

Haaland plays in a stable and good team in Manchester City. Before Haaland joined Manchester City, Manchester City were already dominating the Premier League. He started playing in a team that was ready and organized. Hojlund is in a team full of turbulence. That's why he can't fully show his talents. Actually, I also think Haaland is a very special player, but at the same time, I think the criticism of Hojlund is unwarranted and exaggerated.

Haaland is top scorer with 16 goals. I'm curious to see how these two players will rank at the end of the season. Haaland is likely to finish the season on top again.

It's interesting to compare the performances of Erling Haaland and Rasmus Hojlund, especially considering their different circumstances within their respective teams. Haaland's success with Manchester City, a stable and dominant team in the Premier League, is notable, given his impressive goal-scoring record. Hojlund faces the challenge of playing in a team that may be experiencing turbulence or inconsistency, which could potentially impact his ability to showcase his talents to their fullest extent. There is context in which players operate, because team dynamics and external factors can significantly influence individual performance.

Every player brings unique strengths and qualities to their team, and success is often a collective effort rather than solely determined by individual statistics. As the season progresses, it will be intriguing to see how both players fare and where they ultimately rank in terms of performance. While Haaland may be favored to finish the season as a top scorer again, it's possible that Hojlund and other players may also make significant contributions that warrant recognition and appreciation.

My fondness for Manchester United would not make me come up with a daft or blind situation which I'm well opened to see. It's not wise to compare Rasmus Hojlund with Erling Haaland. This is not the right thing to be done and must be corrected properly.
If we're to measure the quick impact and goals scored and contributed in them various first season, Erling Haaland is off course steps ahead of Rasmus Hojlund. No need for all when we can just both enjoy the Dane and Nowegian.
It's nothing but good tidings seeing how they've come from afar bit has been dominating in a strange land.

Hopefully when the next transfer window begins, if the right valuation is matched and met, a player like Marcus Rashford is a joke and should be sold out completely. He is not a player Manchester United will want to keep too long with the club.

In Sheffield United vs Brighton team match, Brighton won the match by scoring 5 goals. On the other hand, Sheffield United team played with 10 players due to Sheffield United team player getting red cards in 13 minutes.  Buonanotte scored the first goal in the 20th minute.D.  Welbeck scored the 2nd goal on 24 minutes.J.  Robinson scored the 3rd goal in the 75th minute. Adingra scored the 4th goal in the 78th minute and the 5th goal in the 85th minute.

MU was slowly but surely climbing up again. Hojlund is showing his confidence to play in the EPL. we can't deny the fact that if hojlund is being quite consistent in scoring for united. He breaks all of bad expectations when he has come to the club and did nothing till the first goal was happening. MU can battle for the UCL spot now. THe gap toward the fourth place is not that big. This is obviously another interesting thing to watch. MU was playing so badly early season but it seems ten hag has been successfully bounding the club. The competition to get UCL spots are very intensive with some clubs are still chasing each other. Waiting for MU fans to praise ten hag for this after they blamed him a few weeks ago.

Luton played very well in that game but manchester united has higher standard than it. it makes the situation give united more advantage over luton. Luton was intensively attacking MU but it's all uselesss. Luton shows some improvements but it's not with its attackers.
The fast goal from united may be impacting the performance from luton.

Luton's standard has been improving compared to the when it was playing on championship. I see different luton right now.

Adingra scored the 4th goal in the 78th minute and the 5th goal in the 85th minute.

It can be said that Sheffield United is not a balanced opponent for Brighton, so playing with just 11 players will still make it difficult for them to face their opponent, especially with only 10 players and the red card occurred in the 13th minute of the first half so that the match time is still long which has give Brighton has the freedom to continue to press because they are already superior in number of players.
And you can see how Brighton controlled possession of the ball up to 80% so Sheffield was rarely able to control the ball and this defeat further ensured the fate of this promoted team to return to playing in the championship because it seemed impossible for them to survive the relegation zone, also Brighton's victory raised their position in the standings in a better position.

This defeat ensures that Sheffield United will drop to the lower caste. Sheffield United have only had 3 wins, and are 7 points behind teams outside the relegation zone. It will be very difficult for them to get out of the relegation zone, in fact I think it is impossible because there are only around 13 matches left in the EPL. Sheffield united's performance has been really bad this year and I think almost any team will be able to beat them. It will be interesting to see which teams will be promoted from the Championship to the EPL.

Hojlund brace in the first 10 minutes of the match allowed Manchester United to secure another win and 3 point.
They are still comfortable in position 6 bcause with this victory in addition to maintaining the gap between Manchester United and Brighton, this also allows them to maintain hope while waiting for some of the clubs above them to make mistake.

I quite appreciate what Luton did in this match because they can successfully compensate for what Manchester United showed but on the other hand we also have to give 2 thumbs up to Hojlund bcause his performance in the last few matches has always been above average.
He scored again for Manchester United and that is a very good thing because slowly it seems like Hojlund is getting his form back and continue to be a good fulcrum for Manchester United i n every match that is done.

I'm really impressed with Højlund's current form, and im pretty sure a lot of united fans would be happy as well, this is a player that was criticized and backlashed for his poor form when they bought him from Atalanta with an injury, but i was pretty sure he'll bounce back cause i know he's a talented young lad with lots of ambition for success, well one of the things that hindered Højlund from scoring earlier was because the wingers were very greedy in delivering passes to him, but it's nice to see a lot of changes from the whole squad lately.

 For a team in the relegation zone they did good in replying with a goal after United's striker Hojlund scored a brace. But to be honest, Luton are no match for United and even with the home advantage it knew United would secure the 3 points, yesterday would had been Højlund's day to score a hat trick but luck didn't come his way, and united would had scored more goals yesterday, if only Garnacho utilized his chances properly. However one player I'm really impressed with is kobbie Maino, his pairing with Casimiro has really yield good result.
