Talking about Erling Haaland in the whole match, he only touched the ball 21 times, lost the ball once, and never won an aerial battle. This was a disappointing match for Erling Haaland, as he was utterly outclassed by Virgil Van Dijk. I actually think Van Dijk is a better centre-back than Haaland as a striker. This is a battle between the best centre-back and the best striker. And Virgil van Dijk won. Klopp's introduction of Salah and Andy Robertson created space for Diaz to move and exploit the hole. Diaz played with enthusiasm, constantly tormenting Man City's defense.

I think Liverpool really learned how to beat Manchester City by shutting down Haaland throughout the game, I saw when there is a team that can trouble Manchester City is when that team can keep Haalan's movement tight, I quite remember when during the Arsenal vs Manchester City match in the first game of the season when Saliba managed to keep Haalaand tight and Haalaand was even quite frustrated because he couldn't score In that match and finally made Arsenal win 1-0, the same thing we saw also in last night's match how Van Djik managed to kill Haaland's movement and even Van Djik managed to stick and disturb Haaland when Haaland was only left one-on-one with Kelleher.

Looking at the game of the two teams yesterday obviously a draw is a fair result for both teams, I think now we will see the competition for the championship will be tighter because the three teams only have 1 point difference between them, the three teams still have a chance to change positions especially in the next two weeks another bigmatch match will also occur again in the Premier League between Manchester City and Arsenal.

Even though Man City players are generally of higher quality, the rigid style of play that has shaped the brand will not be easy to change. It is highly appreciated, but Man City cannot beat Liverpool. The two teams played openly, constantly giving each other tit for tat. The match could have had more than two goals if the opportunities were fully utilized. Although their strength could be stronger, Liverpool can make it difficult for any opponent at home. Liverpool is also unafraid to push their squad to play double-attacks with their opponents. The 1-1 draw was even somewhat unfair to Liverpool, as the number of opportunities and the quality of opportunities they created were both better than Man City. At the end of the match, Liverpool was also denied a confusing penalty when Doku kicked Mac Allister in the penalty area. Man City has survived a tsunami in Anfield.

 The battle for the EPL continues as we saw the two top teams playing out another 1-1 draw which means them both sharing the spoils. This was also a great draw for Arsenal as they remain top of the EPL table. Arsenal now have to maintain consistency but one big deal is that they’ve got more matches against the big 6 as compared to these 2. This draw was quite expected but the match was sincerely fascinating. The match is what we would love to talk about today, how it all went down for these 2 teams in yesterday’s encounter. A second half penalty goal from Mac Allister canceled out a John Stones lead in a brilliant 1st half contest.

 Liverpool were very tremendous after the break and they caused Man City and Pep some sort of worry and this was a warning message to Arsenal too, that they’re very serious and ready for the challenge. No damage was done to their title challenge rather they’re just behind on Goal Difference and with their performance yesterday, you can begin to think that the goal difference might not be much a worry for this side. With that draw, I think City are so delighted knowing they can at least snatch a point from Liverpool at Anfield. They could have killed the game in the first half but they couldn’t take their chanceS and also in the last minutes too but the chances weren’t converted.

 Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola’s Premier League rivalry came to a pulsating conclusion with a tense and tenacious 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Manchester City at Anfield. The final chapter continues with just 1 points separating these teams, it also leaves Arsenal on top with some high goal difference between them and Liverpool. Erling was no where in that match and I felt he was supposed to be the sub off and not KDB. VVD keeps poving why he’s the vest centre back as he kept Erling in his pockets and also exploited upfront and the introduction of Robertson and Salah was real spot on by Klopp. This Liverpool side seems real fierce and I already see them as EPL winners.

The guardiola-klopp rivalry was one of the defining elements of today's football in tactical terms. Both coaches pushed each other hard. If you look at the matches between them, you realise how much of a headache klopp was for guardiola. Even in seasons when liverpool didn't perform well, klopp was able to come up with surprises. Mohamed salah, Trent alexander-arnold and Alisson Becker are more or less half of this team. But the advantage is that even without them, the team has been winning important games for a few weeks now and klopp's departure at the end of the season has become an extra motivation. If luis diaz and darwin nunez were a little more skilful in finishing, the game could have been easily won.

Yesterday's draw in a big match at Anfield was a deserved result because both teams showed a very high level of play.

It would not be wrong if after the second draw, we will feel the tight competition between Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City because the point difference is very close, only 1 point between Manchester City and Liverpool and Arsenal.
It is not impossible that Manchester City can top the standings if Arsenal cannot maintain victory in every match.
The determination of who is worthy between Manchester City and Arsenal will occur in round 30.
 
Tight competition will also occur in places 5 and 6. Aston Villa, which continues to experience a decline in performance, will be taken advantage of by Tottenham. Manchester United will also try hard to move up one ranking from its current position.

I honestly hoped Liverpool would win that game. I want to see Klopp hold a farewell ceremony with Liverpool by winning the EPL title. It will be one of the best moments for Liverpool and fans. But City played very well in that match. Both teams showed the same level and of course a draw is a fair result for both teams. I think currently several leagues have already confirmed their champions so the matches will be boring to watch. But these results also make the English league even more exciting to watch. 3 teams are fighting for the championship title with only a difference of 1 point.

If they are in a position where this team cannot match their trophy haul, of course a draw is not the result they really want, even though a draw has made them feel like they are having trouble chasing points until the end of the season.
Regarding Klopp's wish to bid farewell to the title that Liverpool will win, many parties do not want it professionally because each of them has their own targets with their respective support teams.

Both teams for me play according to my taste. I want to come to the conclusion that they deserved to share the points at Anfield yesterday even though there was an incident where Liverpool should have received a penalty in the final minutes of the second half.

[Pulsar77]

Referee decisions are really disappointing this season. I really can't believe how the referee didn't call a penalty for Doku's challenge in the last minute... That challenge has really nothing in it to be defended. A player shouldn't be able to do whatever he want as long as he is touching the ball first. This is just a ridiculous rule.

There is an obvious kick to the chest there but the referee just wanted to act like there was nothing wrong.    We are still witnessing unbelievable decisions in even the Premier League which is called as the most prestigious league in Europe.

It wasn't the referee that waved play on after that incident but the VAR referees who told the referee in charge of the game to continue play. After the incident, the VAR referees called the match official to wait for a moment while they check of the incident was a penalty or not before they also signalled to him to continue play. Just like you said, I was very surprised to see that VAR didn't instruct the referee to go check his side monitor and make the final in that particular game. Football is one crazy sports that'll always leave is with shocking decisions sometimes even when we least expected it

Liverpool were simply the better team in that game and I expected them to win the game but they weren't just prolific enough to convert their chances in that game even when they created so many clear chances. Pep Guardiola I think will be very happy with the result yesterday because his team was the weaker team but still managed to get a draw in a game that's as crucial as that game. Football will always remain the best sports because of the kind of quality moments it produces just like the game between Liverpool and Manchester City yesterday.

[Distraction]

It looks like Tottenham are going to determine the fate of these 3 title contenders.    Because Tottenham are going to play against each one of these teams by breaks of only a week. Liverpool seem to be the luckiest among these contenders as Tottenham players would be worn out more before coming to play away against Liverpool. 

Of course one shouldn't forget that Arsenal are still the leader at the moment. But in case they stumble - which is likely against Manchester City at the end of the month - then Liverpool can turn this fixture into their advantage all of a sudden. 

Which one is your favourite to become the PL champions?

Liverpool and Manchester City had to settle for 1 point in the match, and made Liverpool have to be willing to give up the top position of the Premier League standings to Arsenal, regardless of the draw of the match certainly caused controversy over the referee's decision not to give Liverpool a penalty for an alleged right-footed hit from Jemy Doku into the chest of Mac Allister which made him fall in the penalty box,  I think the referee took the right decision to stop the game after the incident happened, but unfortunately the referee did not try to see with his own head and instead listened more to those in the Var room, if the referee might have run towards the Var screen and checked directly then maybe the decision would have been different in my opinion.


Now even on social media many have begun to question PGMOL neutrality in officiating a match which is indeed seen often making decisions that harm a team, and even now it seems that many claim that PGMOL often benefits Manchester City as happened in the match, but despite all the controversy in the match I do not see if there is another league in Europe that is indeed more prestigious than the league English.

That is what I believed as well, like when I watched the game I felt like Liverpool fully dominated the game. However, when I check back on the stats, they have about same amount of shots, and nearly same amount of possessions, similar pass accuracy, it really doesn't have that much different in the end neither. That doesn't really feel like it would be that close, the game itself when you watched it felt like Liverpool had many more chances, like at least double if not more, and yet the shots on target were all the same.

So, I am guessing that it felt like that because of higher chances since their shots were a bit more closer? Not entirely sure but that doesn't mean that the game was one sided, it looks like it was pretty even.

Another rumor is circulating; we've seen several reports linking De Bruyne to a Saudi Pro League club but I believe this rumor is gradually becoming true since there are more signs came and it likes tell us if this news will come true but not yet clear whether de bruyne will accept or deny it.

Saudi Pro League clubs have registered interest in a summer deal for Man City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, sources have told Football Insider.

The 32-year-old playmaker is out of contract at the Etihad Stadium in 2025.

It is understood that De Bruyne has been made a top target by Saudi clubs as they prepare for another summer of heavy spending to grow the popularity of their league.

City have previously done business with Saudi clubs with Riyad Mahrez and Aymeric Laporte leaving last summer for a combined fee of £55million.

Saudi clubs are willing to pay a transfer fee north of £100million and offer De Bruyne a lucrative contract to lure him to the Middle East.

source: https://www.footballinsider247.com/kevin-de-bruyne-man-city-braced-for-100m-saudi-bid-sources/


As stated in the news above, the Saudi Pro League was fully prepared to break its bank in order to acquire De Bruyne from Manchester City. De Bruyne's future is unclear because Manchester City has been unable to provide the most recent update on his situation and this is something that must be done by city in order to keep their asset secure.
De Bruyne was a fantastic player, and there is no doubt that the Saudi Pro League has targeted this king of assists, who may be leaving Manchester City soon and SPL club expect him will able to help league to boost the popularity.

Back to when Pep suggested he stay even longer at the club. It appears that De Bruyne is interested in staying, but the decision will be made by city management because it will be difficult to turn down a $100 million offer from a Saudi professional club for De Bruyne.

LOL that is a really nice picture . With only a difference of 1 point, the competition between Arsenal, City and Liverpool for the Champions League title has become even more exciting to watch. And Tottenham is one of the teams that can give these three teams a defeat.

I actually hope Liverpool will become champions. But it looks like City will be back to back champions. Arsenal will play City at the end of March and it will be a big challenge for Arsenal. If they can beat City then Arsenal will have the biggest chance of becoming champions.

Arsenal should have learned from last season what made them ultimately fail at the end of last season where they didn't play well which made Manchester City champions and I think Arteta has also thought about fixing this so that now they are back at the top of the standings, even though the competition is quite tight where there are Liverpool and Manchester City there who also have a slight difference in points, that's why Arsenal probably won't last long there if they don't have a winning mentality.

Arteta must instill in his team to have a winning mentality and always consistently play optimally in every match so that they can get good results until the end of the season. So far Arsenal are also quite good, but it seems that this season, my prediction is that Arsenal will fail again and that will win the EPL title this season Liverpool or Manchester city because they are more worthy than Arsenal, I think Arsenal need a lot of time to make Arsenal become champions in the EPL, at least looking at next season I think they can do it later playing consistently on a winning path at the start season until the end of the season.

I think Liverpool really learned how to beat Manchester City by shutting down Haaland throughout the game, I saw when there is a team that can trouble Manchester City is when that team can keep Haalan's movement tight, I quite remember when during the Arsenal vs Manchester City match in the first game of the season when Saliba managed to keep Haalaand tight and Haalaand was even quite frustrated because he couldn't score In that match and finally made Arsenal win 1-0, the same thing we saw also in last night's match how Van Djik managed to kill Haaland's movement and even Van Djik managed to stick and disturb Haaland when Haaland was only left one-on-one with Kelleher.

Looking at the game of the two teams yesterday obviously a draw is a fair result for both teams, I think now we will see the competition for the championship will be tighter because the three teams only have 1 point difference between them, the three teams still have a chance to change positions especially in the next two weeks another bigmatch match will also occur again in the Premier League between Manchester City and Arsenal.

Erling who is the main man for this Manchester City was bought at a great fee and all through last season, we saw him disturbing the league as he ended the season with over 50 goals + as compared to how quiet he’s being this season. This is his 2nd season at the club and he’s having just about 18 goals with over 28 matches.Well he’s having very low stat even though to an extent we can put much of the blame on the injury which sidelined him out for over 2 months. Against Liverpool during the weekend, the forward was once again kept quiet as he had just one shot and about 21-22 touched in the game which is very poor for his kind of player.

 This now brings us to heaping praises on the defense line of Liverpool and we feel that the major player in the Liverpool defense is Virgil Van Dijk who we saw at some occasions always making sure Erling doesn’t get his way in that match. He was a colossus and came out on top against Erling and he real earned the praises of him being a better defender than Erling is a forward.The rest of the Liverpool backline deserves her praises too as we saw how they managed to make sure the Man City attackers like Phil and KDB doesn’t have their usual way around like they always did. This alone was a big effort from the defense of Liverpool and is worthy of commendation.

I think Liverpool still remains the only team who’s got the strength to be able to make this Man City team struggle to get possession of the ball, maintain the possession or create something off their possession. Klopp will greatly be missed especially in matches like this in future especially if an experienced coach isn’t brought to take charge.The draw was worth is as both teams showed real strength and determination on how much they both needed the points in this game and as such were able t share points which now means more pressure for Arsenal as the league challenge is still very open between the 3 teams.

Chelsea vs Newcastle Yesterday match Chelsea team scored 3 goals and Newcastle team scored 2 goals. I bet for Newcastle team and lost the bet in this match. I thought Newcastle team will do well but Newcastle team players have bad performance.  Couldn't win the match. But Newcastle team is still ahead of Chelsea team on the points table. Chelsea team player N. Jackson scored the 1st goal in 6 minutes. C.  Palmer scored the 2nd goal on 57 minutes.M.  Mudryk scored the 3rd goal in the 76th minute.

The picture is indeed great so I wanted to share in a post of mine also.   

I have seen the current odds for the PL championship like this:

- Manchester City - 2.10
- Liverpool - 3.00
- Arsenal - 3.50

Arsenal are in the lead maybe but they are the team with least chance given. Wouldn't it actually be nice to bet on Liverpool or Arsenal with some money now to make the remaining match weeks more exciting to follow?    I wouldn't bet on Manchester City while I'm wishing to not see them being the champions.

I still choose 2.10 for Manchester city because I believe the PL title will be won again by Pep Guardiola troops, believe me. 
If indeed some people want to take a thrilling risk at the end of the season betting on Arsenal or Liverpool, I think it is equivalent to the results that would be obtained if Arsenal or Liverpool managed to get first place at the end of the season.
Don't see anything surprising at the end of the season and usually Arsenal looks very strong and consistent but always loses consistently and experiences consecutive defeats and Liverpool seems more worthy of being a competitor to Manchester City.

I am sure that this season is Arsenal's season to win the title, this is just my filing, whether you believe it or not is up to you, but I am sure of my prediction that Arsenal will lift the trophy this season, the strength in whatever aspect they have is not in Liverpool and Man City, Arsenal's match at home to Man City will end in a narrow win even though Arsenal will play at home to Man City. At least that is not something Arsenal is afraid of, at least they are optimistic about winning.

This rumour has actually been active for quite a long time. But as long as Guardiola remains at Manchester City I don't know whether De Bruyne would like to make such decision easily. I know he is 32 years old now but he can still be very useful for the team for a couple of more years.    I believe many people think the same about the topic.

His performance since he recovered from his injury has also been proving this. Despite playing in really low amount of games his impact has still been huge on nearly all of them. While he is this eager to play Guardiola would like to keep him in his team I think.

De Bruyne is a great playmaker and creative in creating opportunities. Guardiola really needs players like De Bruyne in his tactics. I think Guardiola will try to keep De Bruyne at City. But I'm sure Guardiola is also looking for other players who can play like De Bruyne. We cannot deny that De Bruyne is at the end of his career. He can choose to stay at City until he retires or join the SPL to have a longer career. All of these are possibilities that will happen.

I am sure that this season is Arsenal's season to win the title, this is just my filing, whether you believe it or not is up to you, but I am sure of my prediction that Arsenal will lift the trophy this season, the strength in whatever aspect they have is not in Liverpool and Man City, Arsenal's match at home to Man City will end in a narrow win even though Arsenal will play at home to Man City. At least that is not something Arsenal is afraid of, at least they are optimistic about winning.

Arsenal has the capacity to become champions this season. But they must be able to play consistently in every match. Competition in the PL is very tight because Liverpool and City are also playing well. I see Arsenal still have 4 big matches, namely against Chelsea, City, Tottenham and Arsenal. Of course Arsenal can become champions if they are able to beat these teams.
