Liverpool hahahaha!
Liverpool hahahaha!!
Liverpool hahahaha!!!
I decided not to come online until this match finishes and I have seen the end and I want to tell you that Liverpool's problem is not close to ending. Do you know why? Some clubs that doesn't have quality players, when they experience set back like what Liverpool is experiencing, they will endure till they buy better players that will bring success. But now, Liverpool has;
Salah;
Isak;
Wirtz;
Ekitike
And yet, they could not score a single goal against Nottingham Forest for complete 90 mins. Things have really fallen apart for Liverpool.

Liverpool looks a shadow of themselves, and the coach absolutely have no idea of what he is doing right now, it’s a shame how Liverpool are playing now it’ now looks like a crisis and it’s a disaster for Liverpool, they’re very horrible and I think it’s time the club make some changes defensively I have to fault Van Dijk he has been very bad and horrible defensively with Konate looks a shadow of himself, I don’t see Liverpool coming out from this if they don’t get the manager stacked, and the most ugly part of this performance is that the midfield isn’t playing well or creating chances for Isak, and that makes Isak a shadow of himself, this team looks a mess and Liverpool are so bad to watch.

What a horrid day for these big names in the Premier League. First with Liverpool losing without scoring a goal against Nottingham Forest and now watching Manchester City losing to Newcastle United with around 20 minutes left in the match to go.

Having both these teams on my acca for the EPL matches today makes it more painful to watch them go down like this.
Think they said Liverpool is 11th place now after this loss on the leaderboard. Just a horrible result for the former champions.

[Obari]

Liverpool is still showing a terrible performance, playing at their own home ground Anfield, trailing 2-0 against the relegation zone bottom team Nottingham Forest with 2 goals from Callum Wilson. The results continue to be a joke, and Arne Slot is asking for a sky-high salary increase; truly a coach who causes trouble, not getting fired is already very fortunate, yet he asks for a fantastic raise. Liverpool fans and management are too patient in responding to the poor results from Arne Slot.

Liverpool dismantled at Anfield today and it's against a 19th place side in the English Premier League. Nottingham Forest came to Anfield with everything they got and a win was ensure for Garibaldis. Arne Slot should be held responsible for everything that's happening to the club this season. Before the international break, they lost 3 nil to Manchester City and now losing again and this time against an average side is totally unacceptable. Arne Slot need to do better because winning is very important and consider a crucial one for the Reds.

[Nightwatchmare]

What's happening at Anfield , I know before the international break Liverpool wasn't in good form but for Nottingham Forest to bully the Reds on their own home turf is unacceptable! Already second goal was disallowed and if this goes on this will be a bad weekend for the team and supporters who will now question what the manager is doing... Come on Liverpool turn this script now!!

Liverpool are the favorite in the match, and they are meant to defeat Nottingham Forest on their own home because Nottingham Forest too are not doing well this season. I was shocked when i saw that Nottingham Forest won Liverpool on their own home without Liverpool pulling one goal back. This weekend is already a bad one for Liverpool because after Nottingham Forest won them, they dropped to 11th position in the league standings. Liverpool should just sack Arne Slot now that premier league has not gone far if they want to challenge for the league title.

Liverpool were most people’s favorite to win the match, most people placed on Liverpool to get a win, but it’s just surprising that Liverpool ended up losing the match, they conceded 3 goals in the match I never expected that kind of goal margin in the match. Liverpool fans are already complaining about slot, some of them are already requesting for his sack, actually thats too early, but slot should do everything to improve the teams performance, it’s disgraceful to see Liverpool at their current position, and they struggling to win even against weaker teams.

Two defeats, and both had come in succession; never would it have been thought of that victory could be pulled by Newcastle as they did against City, 2-1.

Everything was as smooth as silk for the Magpies in the first half, with the score tied 0-0. Things got a bit out of control right after  63’ and 70’ when in less than ten minutes, three goals accumulated: two ‘home’ goals and one scored by the ‘citizens’. And it was Barnes who became a real nightmare for Gianluigi Donnarumma… No… not a single point to his credit as he sent “Cityzens” back home. Nine minutes were added by the referee… a mammoth size of time but alas proved insufficient for Man City to draw level. So, they had to taste defeat this time. An unlucky defeat

Man City are stranded for now in third place-though with so fine a point difference it could happen all over again at any time.

Liverpool should look dipper into their games as they’re at the verge of crumbling. They have been playing very poorly and nothing has been done about it even after the international break. This is a thing of shame to see Nottingham Forest prevailing against them in this manner. I’m pointing out on Liverpool’s defense to be a poor one. Only Konate and Van Dijk are the real defenders there, the other ones cannot manage to defend well in that team and during the transfer market, Arne Slot didn’t take advantage of it to sign new defenders. This is really bad and we may see more worse to this in the coming games if the right action is not taken.

Man city and Liverpool, I never expected you guys would play trash today, if not wouldn't have added both of you in my slip. I was thinking this two teams will give arsenal tough time by competing for the league together. The fall of man city and Liverpool needs to studied. Congratulations to Arsenal coz they will be the 2025/2026 Epl champions, there is no team that is serious to compete against them this season.

2 surprises occurred in today's match where besides Liverpool in the end Manchester City also could not do much and had to recognize the superiority of Newcastle this week.

Liverpool are quite sad where the scheme they want to build with determination actually has a bad impact on their defense which makes Nottingham Forrest quite free in breaking down their defense.
I expected more from Manchester City after Liverpool lost but it seems like it didn't go well in this match either.

Newcastle played with a makeshift squad after they lost several players due to injuries and card accumulation but unexpectedly they also managed to secure 3 points where 3 goals (2 goals for Newcastle and 1 goal for Manchester City) happened quickly.
Arsenal match I will not try to bet at 1x2 because this could be deceiving and I don't want the same thing for Liverpool and Manchester City betting to repeat because Arsenal's conditions against Tottenham are also still 50/50.

[irhact]

Imagined the team like Liverpool can conceded 6 goals in the last 2 games in Premier league i think this record is proven that Liverpool defense is so weak but i think it's not about the defense only because it's about Arne Slot strategy that he cannot maximize the potention of new players besides that the key players such as Mo Salah looks lost his touch this season and the loses from Nottingham Forrest is very dissapoint especially lost at Anfield which Liverpool used to is very strong in this place but now it's different even they were just humiliated and i think Arne Slot should be sack

Liverpool's mindset is very low at the moment, they are struggling visibly..... the defense is visibly weak, maybe the change of coach is starting to show. In fact scratch that it's already showing, they are losing home and away and it's very poor for the defending champions. arsenal and Chelsea are looking like strong contenders.... although man city has began to pick form....this season will be interesting for sure.

The Burnley vs Chelsea match was quite a tough match  it seems almost impossible for Chelsea to score not until the 30 minutes plus before neto find the back of the net seems difficult at first for the Chelsea team but as God may have it, it ended in 0-2  very interesting i was actually nervous  because we've seen a similar situation here the match between Sunderland vs Chelsea, they actually started the lead but at the final whistle Sunderland emerge the winner, I was thinking if we will experience same thing in this game, but with the look of things I don't see it to be that way as Chelsea seems to be playing more better even in the second half. Kudos to Maresca and his boys.

The match was a bit difficult for Chelsea and I even saw a post earlier before the match the guy was full of himself saying Burnley are definitely going to win Chelsea but it turns out to be different and Chelsea took the three point from Burnley. I thought the match was going to end on a 0-1 but it ended 0-2 quite good for Chelsea and I think the sunderland vs Chelsea game was different from this one because I think sunderland are more tougher than Burnley this season in the premier league. Nevertheless Chelsea should start the preparation for their next match with the Arsenal( the gunner at the top of the table), we will see who’s going to win the match.

manchester city lost its spot right behind arsenal to chelsea. meanwhile, arsenal doesn't seem to be giving up its position; they're still maintaining their form.

i can't understand how liverpool managed such a rapid decline. it's as if they suddenly went from being the league favorites to a team with zero chance of winning the title. the new players aren't delivering the liverpool performance we expected, and naturally, they're facing backlash. some players need to leave the team and be replaced, but we don't know who that will be.

Let's not be too quick to draw conclusions yet about Arsenal because, I feel that Arsenal is one team that needs to prove to everyone that they deserves to be in the the top spot that, they find themselves. Tomorrow game against Tottenham to me will really be a acid test for Arsenal to see if they can hold their own against the big teams when it matters the most.

The opening match was quite surprising, City lost & Liverpool lost very badly at home, the result of this match was beyond prediction and of course disappointed many people. Arsenal vs Tottenham match, I am sure Arsenal will win, it seems Arsenal will strengthen its position

[ITExpert]

Manchester City will be trying to get 3 points away at Newcastle United. Manchester City's task is certainly not easy, but Newcastle have not started the season very well. I think City will win, albeit with difficulty.

Manchester City are starting to recover from their early-season slump and are in excellent form, especially after beating Liverpool in their previous match. Furthermore, Haaland is in peak form, consistently scoring goals. This will undoubtedly pose a significant threat to Newcastle defense when Haaland is at his peak. I'm very optimistic that Manchester City will win, especially with Pep Guardiola, a brilliant coach who can always find solutions to formulate team strategies when facing big teams.

Manchester city is trying and it is hoping that they will be successful to get all their points. Because Manchester City is a team which is really trying to have some good positions and points. Their hard work and their dedication towards the game can be clearly seen that they are willing and trying to take things in that way. Their position also gets strong after they beat Liverpool in their last match. And the one positive thing is also that the manager of Manchester city is a good coach. Who are really trying to make the team in their deserving place. A good coach or the manager of any team has the ability to make the teams fall in upper positions and the lower as well. So, it is expected from Manchester city that they will manage to score a significant position this time.

This is the beauty of the epl, the unpredictable nature of the league, this is why we say there is no small team in the epl and that is why they say the epl is considered the most competitive league in the world,
Arsenal has a clear part to becoming the epl champions since winning the league 2003/2004 season, but the arsenal we know will always do what arsenal does best that is disappointing the fans at the most intense time when every point matter alot, arsenal lack the mentality to be crown the league champions, unless we are expecting a miracle

[redhack]

Which result was more surprising to you? Liverpool losing at home by conceding 3 goals or Manchester City losing? Both were shocking results. I don't know how to explain Liverpool having such a poor season. Isak played his 5th league game and still hasn't scored. Salah is nowhere near his form from last season. Nottingham Forest, despite not having a great season, secured a fantastic victory.
Newcastle United's win over Manchester City was also interesting. Barnes scored twice. Haaland failed to score this time. Manchester City rely on him too much. Foden, Marmoush or Cherki couldn't give similar performances like Haaland.

[AYOBA]

Liverpool are the favorite in the match, and they are meant to defeat Nottingham Forest on their own home because Nottingham Forest too are not doing well this season. I was shocked when i saw that Nottingham Forest won Liverpool on their own home without Liverpool pulling one goal back. This weekend is already a bad one for Liverpool because after Nottingham Forest won them, they dropped to 11th position in the league standings. Liverpool should just sack Arne Slot now that premier league has not gone far if they want to challenge for the league title.

What a big disappointment for Liverpool to lose to Nottingham 3-0 in their own home without a single equalizer, which was a shameful thing for Liverpool. Imagine that Liverpool dominated the entire ball possession but was unable to defeat common Nottingham. All this while, a lot of people were saying that Liverpool's performance has totally gone down, and I didn’t believe it, but now I agree with that statement.

As it stands now, Liverpool is managing the 11th place in the table. The best thing for them to do is to only forget about the Premier League this season. Because Liverpool has already been left behind, it will be very hard for them to meet up with the rest of the team.

[bitgolden]

Don't you know Chelsea fans they will still give much of excuses if they probably draw or loss against Burnley and the excuse will be that they rest some key players to play against Barcelona in the UEFA Champions league, even if they loss with all their key men they will push the complain some were else i know Chelsea fans. The English premier league is also as important as the UEFA Champions league for Chelsea, so Burnley shouldn't stop them from picking 3 points, they stand favorite to win Burnley who has only won 3 games this season.

Chelsea can find whatever excuse they want, but as long as they do not finish near the top, they are not doing what they should with this kind of money, it's as simple as that. They got a new owner who spent a lot of money on the club and yet they are still not doing that great, which should goes to show you that it is not doing that fine, they need to be easily in top four in order to say that they did alright.

Of course there are teams that spend more than them, there is no doubt about that, Liverpool spent more after being winners and yet they are still bad, which is what they are fearing they may end up with soon, which is why it's clear that Chelsea is better than that, but nothing out of top four would be a good result.

I don't think anyone should be too quick to conclude Arsenal's fate, but rather speculate about their future.
Arsenal should capitalize on the poor results other clubs have experienced, such as City's defeat. They should aim to beat Tottenham and close the gap on Chelsea in tomorrow's match.
But honestly, I wouldn't expect too much from tomorrow's match, as Tottenham are a strong team and could make it difficult for Arsenal to win
