This is why Tottenham are in the position they are in, their players makes the worse decisions and are very indisciplined especially from players that are with the captain arm band.
The penalty conceded by Mikky van Der ven was bad decision and indiscipline. With VAR holding a man in the box is bad decisions especially when he is clear ahead and going to goal, the he could either score or miss if he had left the players hand but now a penalty and one man down.

And with this Action from Van de Ven, Tottenham could certainly lose this match because it’s just halftime and they’ve conceded three goals! And with their performance in the premier league lately I wouldn’t  expect anything like a comeback from them even if they had all eleven men on the pitch and they’re currently having ten..

Tottenham needs to be more serious or else they get relegated, they’re in the danger zone..just one point ahead of both Nottingham forest and West Ham.

Tottenham hotspurs is in a total mess right now, and nothing seems to be working for them. Even in their current premier league game with crystal palace they are losing 3:1 at home to crystal palace coupled with a red card. I don’t see the coming out of this mess and you can see their fans leaving the stadium even before the halftime whistle. Who knows how many goals they will concede in the second half because crystal palace don’t seem to be slowing down on them.

It's been a long time since Manchester United were finally defeated, and ridiculously, by ten Newcastle players. This was Manchester United's first defeat. I'm also a little confused as to why this could happen. Manchester United had previously beaten Manchester City, Arsenal, and Aston Villa, teams at the top of the table, but against Newcastle, they felt like they were facing a tough opponent, like a strong wall. The match was tough.

Football happens don't be too much surprised. To be honest, I have been waiting for Michael Carrick first lost and it came against 10 men Newcastle United, in just a single lost there have been criticisms. I thought they were screaming we are back, hahaha...

Anyway, they are going to bounce back but I still expect some  drop in points from United this season and also from Liverpool and Aston Villa while hoping my team, Chelsea won't  be more disappointing.

Yes, that's the dynamics of football, and why it's so fun to speculate.
I'm quite confident that Manchester United can at least maintain their third-place finish if their losing streak doesn't continue. Carrick is the key hope this season to bring Manchester United back to the Champions League.
Let them talk, they always do that, they shout, but what? It's all the same.

Chelsea is still playing well, so you don't need to doubt it. City are very difficult now, even though they are a great team, but as we saw yesterday, it was a match that cost them points.

I'm not kidding if I say Arsenal might drop points but that's the same with City and Chelsea might have it hot against City in the coming game, and they might vibe victor. We haven't defeated Arsenal for some years now and this season even after the number of times we played against each other the best we got is a tie whike losing the others so far.

We also have similar stat with City let's see what we can do.

Yes, you also need to watch some of Chelsea's matches, my friend. They're quite busy, not just in the Premier League, they have a tough job in the Champions League and an FA Cup run. As long as they can get their players working well in the near future, there might be great hope, including beating Manchester City.

Arsenal had a flawless week, winning their match 1–0 and collecting 3 points.

They got the most important thing, and that's the 3 points. But trust me, it wasn't as flawless as it seems because they literally worked their ass to just to secure that 3 points. At this point, it is very clear that it doesn't matter how you play. What really matters is the win. After Arsenal scored that goal, they where somehow dominated by Brighton through out the game, but they had to do the needful which was to secure 3 points.

Manchester City suffered a setback at home, drawing 2–2 with Nottingham Forest and losing two very important points.

And as for City, they just couldn't. I wouldn't blamed them honestly, because it seems a lot of us are forgetting how tough the premier league has become this season. We've seen relegation teams embarrassing teams that are fighting for top 4. So, the more you look at the City draw, the more you just have to give credits to all teams at this point. Even Arsenal couldn't defeat Nottingham forest the last time, though they would have easily done that at the Emirates. No team should be underrated at this point.

Yes there will always be critics but Michael Carrick can continue although I'm more curious of his long term consistency because that was the reason he lost his job as manager in Middlesbrough. Anyway, top four is still very much likely for them and while I'm certain they are going to drop points, I think it will be more likely from a draw.

Man I do watch my team play but .y defense often makes me feel disappointed. There are easy exploitation in our defense especially in Cb's role. Our attack sometimes lacks the cutting edge or less clinical. Let's just see, we have so many important games and there are big games among them, hopefully we can do well even with our lacking squad depth.

Tottenham is losing again. Will they really be relegated? Crystal Palace scored 3 goals against them in the first half. They are humiliated at home. Can anyone understand what Tottenham is doing with this expensive squad? They've lost every game since Igor Tudor arrived. It's impossible to understand how a team that qualified directly for the last 16 of the Champions League can struggle so much in the Premier League. They're on the verge of losing their 5th consecutive league game.

Crystal Palace has made it three goals to lead Tottenham wo scored first. Ismaila Sarr will be remembered tonight as the man who destroyed Tottenham as he has scored twice to make the match almost over. The funny part of it is that the fans of Tottenham are already leaving the stadium in anger because they did not expect what they are seeing tonight. Tottenham is totally unpredictable this season, when you expect them to be serious they end up disappointing and vice versa.

I don’t blame the fans leaving early it is just madness that they have to watch their players especially their captain not lead by example.
Tottenham taking a red card in this match was game over, although the scored fired Crystal Palace were better and got a goal canceled out for offside.
Westham and Nottingham forest has to just lock in.

Tottenham Hotspur might drop to the bottom if they don't improve real fast, further losses and they will be next to bunley in the table. Tottenham hotspur performance last season was poor they might not be lucky to escape relegation as they did last season. They were lucky to end up 17th place last season but the season it seems they may drop further. Tottenham lost four matches in a row and the fifth loss is ongoing and they might even concede more goals.

Well, you know what the EPL thinks about Tottenham.

Watching Spurs lose tonight is one of the best feelings one can have as a football fan. The best gift I can receive this year is Arsenal winning the league in the same season Spurs get relegated. I can’t wait to see them crumble against Atletico Madrid in the champions league next week.

[Issa56]

This time I don't call it a good game for Man Utd honestly. Even after the red card they couldn't capture full control of the game. They started doing it only when we started getting close to final whistle.

After Newcastle received the red card, I was thinking there was nothing left for them in the match, Manchester United is going to destroy them, but to my greatest surprise things didn’t go the way I thought,  Newcastle were still performing well even after receiving red card, I was thinking Manchester United will score so many goals in the second half of the match, but at the end, they ended up conceding another goal which gave Newcastle a win in the match. Manchester United didn’t play so well in the match, most people expected a better performance.

Tottenham Hotspur have to make sure they bring in another coach, probably get new set of players in the next transfer window. this is a club that sometimes qualify for champions league, they usually had the charisma to be among the top four before now, sincerely speaking if they continue like this, then they might likely go into relegation. This was a game I thought would be like a walk over for them, yet it turned out to be another disaster.

A 3-1 defeat against Crystal Palace left Tottenham in 16th place with 29 points. Micky van de Ven red card in the 38th minute was very detrimental to the team. This match result will certainly be very difficult for Tottenham if they can't recover, or if they slump further, they could end up in the relegation zone this season. It's a shame, because they started the season very well, but after dropping many points throughout the Premier League, they are in a difficult position. In the Champions League, they were lucky to be drawn against Atletico Madrid. If they had met another team, their journey would almost certainly have ended in the round of 16. Competition in the Champions League is very tight, the wrong strategy can be fatal.

[pawel7777]

I'm only just catching up with Tue/Wed results. I watched the highlights of Man City Vs Nottm Forest and I can't understand how City didn't win this one. They took the lead twice, dominated the game, had plenty of chances and controlled the game with nearly 70% ball possession, but each time Forest managed to score equalisers out of nowhere.

This means Arsenal got a further 2 points away and the gap is now 7 points, but Man City have one more game to play. Arsenal didn't look very impressive against Brighton. Yes, they won, but it was not a deserved win. They only made 2 shots on target throughout the whole game and the only goal by Saka was mainly a goalkeeper's mistake. I wouldn't be surprised if Arsenal loses some points to lower-rated clubs down the road.

Tottenham can win the champions league and be in relegation at the same time, that will be that first time a team will do that since I started watching football, there performance in the league cannot be explained last season similar thing happened and there season was safe after winning the Europe league trophy and automatically qualifying for the champions league or are they about to win the champions league? Time will tell

Tottenham lost again, making it the fifth in a role. I must say sacking Thomas Frank was a bad idea, he wasn't the issue in a large scale and injury woes was still something that affected them under him. While they started the league in a fine run looking like a team that will compete for the title, I knew their inconsistency will show up but these was really worse. In fact, Ange last season wasn't really the issue, over all the management is still at fault because the club as been declining for some years  now.

Sigh, who would have thought Spurs will be fighting against relegation, this is football anything can happen, how the almost mighty has fallen.

[Adiljutt156]

It's a goal rush tonight as there are allot of goals that are been scored. The most surprising result am seeing is Chelsea scoring as many as four goals. This is really surprising because Chelsea is one team that is unpredictable, one game you see them struggling hard to score goals and the next game you see them scoring plenty goals. And tonight happens to be one of those good days for Another surprising result is City drawing at home against Forest, this is one result that were not expected the game is almost at the 90th minute so City has to score another goal because a draw will not be a good, result for city considering that Arsenal is winning their game tonight.

Chelsea football team won the match at the end of the match and Pedro was a person who did excellent in this match and he did back to back 3 goals in this match. The shots of Chelsea football team were 17 in this match and 9 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was 59 percent in this match and their passes were more in this match  and these were 551 in this match. Pedro did his first goal at 35 minutes of the match and he did his second goal at 51 minutes of the match when it was requirement of the team and opponent team tried to build pressure but they could not do anything in this match because their shots were less in this match and these were 8 in this match and 4 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was 41 percent and they could not play according to requirement of the match.

Unfortunately this is no news for Tottenham: if you remember also last year they were in the relegation zone, just because somehow they managed to beat Manchester United in the Europa League final many people forgot how bad their season was. But winning the Europa League doesn't change the players, and also replacing the manager doesn't necessarily change the results. I feel bad for them, I hope they can make it, and West Ham too.

I will carefully observe their next games in the premier league and make a conclusion but with the way they have played and lacks discipline they most likely to be in that space. Too much time was given to Thomas Frank he should have been sacked long ago but no time to blame games. Tudor does not seem like the one to lead Tottenham out of the slums. The Champions League incoming and they will not be as strong they were during the first week of the season. West ham and Nothingham forest are grearing up fine to overthrow them

[dezoel]

The entire team including their fans feel disappointed not just Carrick. The fact that Newcastle was on red card but still beat them make it more embarrassing but it's not surprising after all, the same thing happened to them with Everton when Everton was red carded right from first half. Losing is part of the game but losing to a team that played the entire second half with ten men is not acceptable. Newcastle started with more energy and intensity pressing very well and looked very sharp in the midfield. Manchester United were very poor in their decision making and final pass, the entire attack was not active. Although Manchester United controlled the possession but they lacked the needed creativity.

It happens man, this could be (if I am not wrong) the first loss they got in all of Carricks time there. They have reached from sixth place to third place by getting wins many times in a row, almost even cut the hair on that dude and won five games but got a tie at the last minute.

So it's clear that they are doing a fine job and they are entitled to at least one loss, it happens and as long as it doesn't repeat all the time, it is not a big deal. Yes, it's a disappointment, but it's a fine thing for once in a while.

This loosing streak might be worse than that of wolves at the early season,
I have no idea what is wrong with the team, they do have good players no going to lie about that, but still yet they keep loosing,even to small clubs, I highly suggest that they will need a change of coach, probably their performance will change,

You can just keep loosing like that, try new things make new approaches, you don't just loose and stay relaxed, probably they need to go on religation to reset or something.
