Found out Chelsea sacked Liam Rosenior a couple of hours ago. They have sacked two managers in one season, what exactly are the owners looking for? They dropped Enzo Maresca because they wanted a manager they can control, that’s why they gave an inexperienced manager like Liam Rosenior a 6 year contract. I think they have realised that they need a real manager if they want to win trophies.

The moment they showed Chelsea owners yesterday when Chelsea were losing to Brighton, the look on their faces show that they aren't happy with Rosenior performance so far, and I was suspecting they would sack Rosenior soon. When I heard the news of Chelsea sacking Rosenior I wasn't surprised because it was obvious Chelsea will sack him. You shouldn't be surprised that Chelsea have sacked two coaches this season because it's their way of life.

It been long time coming for him, he has lost the dressing room and that has led to the poor performance in the team. When you beat players begin to look like an average player then you know their is a problem. For me I feel sorry for him because he was doing well at Strassborg and he would have been with a job right now.

These new owners are doing the job the wrong way, you need an experienced manager to lead these young players, somehow they will see as a father figure just the way they saw Maresca.

A lot of managers are available and I just hope they pick the right way next season. An interim manager has been sorted already as Chelsea under 23 head coach will be taking charge till the end  of the season.

Going against Chelsea this time really worked!    This time my parlay also won thanks to Chelsea's messing up. They literally couldn't score a goal for 5 games in a row which is just horrible!

Other than that, there was only 1 win in their last 9 games which means since mid February. I don't question their sacking decision on Rosenior as a result. He was already doubtful when he first came and he couldn't prove himself.

After Chelsea gone 4 games in the premier league without winning and scoring a single goal, some of my friends decided to bet Chelsea under 0.5, and i told them since Chelsea have not scored a single goal in their last 4 matches in the premier league they will score against Brighton and i discouraged them not to bet Chelsea under 0.5 but they did not listen to my advice and they bet on Chelsea not to score a single goal. At the end of Brighton and Chelsea game, Chelsea did not score a single goal against Brighton, my friends bet on Chelsea was successful. I even had a regret for not following them in that crazy bet.

Yes it's true, at that moment, non of the Chelsea’s fans were happy with how things were going or moving backwards under this new coach Rosenior, the Chelsea’s performance were very poor, it has getting to an extent that Chelsea seems losing a direction while thoer result were just keep getting worsen day by day. After or during thier matvh against Brighton it was obvious that Chelsea fans at the field loses patience. Well I wonder what the Chelsea changes manager without any improvements on thier players, most expecially this particular season, in my own opinions changing Coach frequently in never absolution,beside even the players are also contributing to their poor performances to some extent. However, I just hope any new Coach they sign now should be beneficial and helpful to them. The club now need to work harder again when coming back next season, we are now after the Arsenal and Manchester city.

Manchester City is leading Burnley with 0-1 first half, man city is now topping the league with goals aggregates. Now the title race just began between Manchester City and Arsenal, arsenal is a disappointment club because i don't really know how a club like arsenal keep giving up when the league is almost true for them to win it, this is not the first or second they're doing this can win this current Premier league trophy this season i don't know when they'll win it again. What a shame for arsenal.

Manchester City it now at the top of the league and Arsenal is at the second position with the same points as Manchester City, let be honest Arsenal can not win the league, for Arsenal to be at the top of the league for several months and in just one month they drop points and they are now at the second position in the league means that the club will not win the league and with the way things are going Arsenal might go trophiless this season.

I know that Manchester City is going to beat Burnley because Burnley did not stand a chance of beating Manchester City, i said before the game that it is going to be a tough game for Manchester City because Burnley will not want to relegate easily but unfortunately that have already happened after Manchester City beat them with a goal in the match and all thanks to Donnaruma for his incredible performance if not Manchester City will concede goal in the game.

I think it will be only Arsenal fans that will be having hope that Manchester City will be defeated yesterday because that is the same hope arsenal was giving them at the beginning of the season, not realizing that it is also a big disaster for them because it has already happened from 9 point different now match to zero, honestly how can someone even explain this process but had been questioned whether is speaking the truth, arsenal I've done a lot of things which cannot be comprehend for a human thinking. Manchester City have taken the lead and I don't think anything can stand their way now, it is now cleared for Arsenal fans that they have reached their Junction because this is where they normally stop every season.

Manchester city will win this match, it was predicted earlier. Manchester city will not want to lose  points in any match now. If they can continue their winning streak, they still have a chance to win the  title. But if they lose a match, City will have to give up their hopes of  winning the title.
Despite winning against burnley, city's performance was not as good as  expected. They were able to create many chances. Manchester city was able to dominate the  match. But they were able to score only one goal. Manchester city should have secured  a victory by at least  2 goals against a weak team like Burnley.

Hoping that Manchester City would lose yesterday was nothing more than wishful thinking, because in many respects, the team they faced had no real chance of winning. Hoping for a Manchester City loss was unrealistic.
Now that Manchester City has won, Arsenal must accept that they have taken the top spot, but we remain steadfast and believe in the process until the end of the season that “it’s not over yet.” We will strive to make sure that statement in quotes proves true, as there are still five matches left. Anything can happen.

For several years in the EPL, I have always watched Wolverhampton Wanderers (Wolves) compete at the midle of the table. For this season, they were relegated. It seems there is something wrong with this team. There is news that the new owner, Fosun Group, is more focused on the e-sports team. This situation made it difficult for Wolves to make player changes at the beginning of the new season. I thought there would be a big exodus of players leaving. So who will be the next companion of West Ham, Tottenham, and Burnley? It seems they are struggling to avoid getting the remaining two tickets. Tottenham also surprised everyone, they have been really poor. After Kane and Son Heung-min left, they have not been able to play well.

Wolves and Burnley are almost certain not to qualify for the Premier League next season. But Wolves did not perform well last season either. They were 16th in the points table. This season their performance has further declined. And avoiding the relegation zone will no longer be possible for Wolves.

Tottenham are 18th in the points table. If a renowned team like Tottenham does not qualify for the Premier League, it will be a great shame for them. Tottenham still has a chance to avoid the relegation zone. But if they do not play well in the next 5 matches, Tottenham will fall into the relegation zone.

Now, a draw would be a favorable outcome for Manchester City. Arsenal have dropped to second place, and Manchester City have taken the lead. Manchester City's success can be sustained until the end of the season because Pep Guardiola's greatest skill is boosting team motivation towards the end of the league. They are perhaps the best team in the world at this.

[Not your key not your BTC]

A 1-0 victory over Burnley saw Manchester City overtake Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table. Manchester City and Arsenal are level on 70 points and have a goal difference of +37, but Manchester City has a excel in goal productivity (total goals scored).



The Premier League title race is now very tight, and every upcoming match will be a final for Manchester City and Arsenal. If either Manchester City or Arsenal slip up in just one match, their chances of winning the Premier League title will be even more difficult.

Think Chelsea is in a very position right now and the sacking of their manager is something I am.not surprised. Chelsea has been really poor in their performance lately,  imagine conceding 11 goals in 5 matches and not scoring a goal. I think Chelsea's problem is more than just sacking their manager,  because I think there problem is directly from the board. It 9kay that they sacked their manager,  but if the board did not do things right,  they will still continue to suffer next season.

[MK-74]

Manchester City have become the Premier League leaders again after a long time.
They won 1–0 against Burnley last night and moved to the top of the table.

They dominated the match but struggled to score. It wasn’t a difficult game for them, but I expected a bigger scoreline.

Manchester City and Arsenal are now level on points. From now on, every match will be like a final for both teams.

There are 4 matches left until the end of the season and I think Manchester City have tougher remaining fixtures compared to Arsenal.
They could drop points against Everton and Aston Villa.

Seen this recent fallen of arsenal keeps me maintain my position in the past advising those who have built confidence in arsenal never to raise their hope or trust on arsenal until they have seen the final whistle or even the cup in arsenal team hand, it's not a new thing that arsenal is not a team who is ready to lift trophy because it's not laughable to too or leads table to up to weeks 32 and your playing and feeling reluctant on trophy you want to carry I have watched through the recent game style of arsenal and remove hope because man city is ready to lift that trophy without leaving any loophole for arsenal, it's a pity but there is no way because it seems the wining if the man city equalizing on the table weakened arsenal beyond measure.

Chelsea is currently going through a phase which is not good for them at this time of the season, even if their problem canay be to some extent be traced to the management but then what the club needs now for me is to put the team in shape and that has to do with the players if there is a need to buy players then the team should not hesitate because honestly speaking there is a need for them to step up there game. And about signing a new coach I don't think it's entirely a bad idea I mean if a coach is not doing well then he should be replaced immediately before things get worst and go out of hands.
The management of the team should be able to identify strategically what should be done and how to put the team up together again and I think that's part of the reasons for the new coach. I just hope that this path brings them back stronger and more fit by the next season.

To some extent frequently changing coach and manager  has a way too of affecting the teams performance and bringing the team backwards while struggling and trying to adapt to the new management and coach so I think the club should consider several things because making a dicission to avoid causing trouble and set back on the team.

[Volgastallion]

Is a good move made by Chelsea management sack Rosenior i know financialy is not a good one sine they have to pay him a lot of money and is gonna impact in the club economy but he wasnt obtaining any result plus he was already with so much conflict with some top players of the teams and we all know when the players dont back the coach is game over, he had already problems with Enzo, and others in the lockerroom.

[KTChampions]

Manchester city bottled their chance to climb in goals against Arsenal, Burnley is the team they could have grabbed multiple goals and top Arsenal in the league table.
Arsenal and Manchester City are fighting for the highest points and highest goal difference and Burnley was a chance squandered by Manchester City.

Bottled what?? Do you think it's easy to play against Burnley?! They've always made life hell for other top side, I never expected such outcome but,this is football and most importantly, the Premier League Competition.
The most important thing is winning and they won. The players are happy, the fans and also the manager so cheers. They're officially ahead of Arsenal in the standing.

Are you pretending that it's not so? Burnley are literally the worst team in the league for conceding goals, on average they concede exactly 2 goals per game, while City have only managed to score 1. In a title race where its fate will likely be decided by tiebreakers, this is an unfortunate result. Incidentally, Arsenal will play Burnley at home, and I'm sure it will be at least 2-0, more likely 3-0 or 4-0.

You even tried by advising them to bet 0.5 only, i wanted to bet that game with my online account but my network was bad so i went to sports betting shop to bet the games which i predicted that day. I predicted Chelsea to win that match due to their recent losses people where advising me to remove Chelsea game and play the other ones which i predicted, right in front of my someone predicted correct score Chelsea to lose 2- 0, 3-0 and i was just laughing they guy thinking Chelsea will win Brighton. Evening time i left my house and went to football viewing centre to watch the match and i positioned myself in front to see everything clearly, just few minutes Brighton scored Chelsea i still have confidence that they'll equalized and win the match when Brighton scored the second goal i left the view centre and regretted ever going to watch both my bet slip with the advice they gave me i was pist off that night.

Manchester City managed to return to the top of the standings after 33 matches, even though they have the same number of points as Arsenal, but the advantage of scoring more goals made Man City force Arsenal to drop to second place in the standings. It seems Arsenal fate is not as fortunate as expected. A few weeks ago, they were the Carabao Cup favorites, but in the end, it was Man City who managed to become champions. Now Man City is once again a threat to Arsenal, who previously almost secured the Premier League title. His chances in the UCL are also uncertain because there are still big challenges waiting for them, if Arsenal fails to win the title this season, Arteta will be the first to be attacked by fans and also receive harsh criticism from management.

Is a good move made by Chelsea management sack Rosenior i know financialy is not a good one sine they have to pay him a lot of money and is gonna impact in the club economy but he wasnt obtaining any result plus he was already with so much conflict with some top players of the teams and we all know when the players dont back the coach is game over, he had already problems with Enzo, and others in the lockerroom.

With the Champions League now virtually out of reach, Chelsea will have to settle for a Europa League spot under their interim manager.
The decision by Chelsea’s management to sack Liam Rosenior is a serious move aimed at managing the club to prevent fans from being disappointed. However, when Chelsea’s management initially appointed Liam Rosenior, I was curious about the reasoning behind their decision, as he had no notable achievements while managing Strasbourg in France prior to joining Chelsea.

Sacking rosenior is a good one to Chelsea’s player's and the fans, because me myself i was asking how Chelsea owners and the board still allowing this man to be coaching those guys with such results. This man has made another record of Chelsea losing 5 premier league matches streak with even scoring a single goal, i was like saying if this coach continues with the remaining matches Chelsea might not even play Europea conference, but not that I'm happy seeing him sacked no he was doing pretty well in strasbourg so i was wondering what's really going on with his coaching pattern where ever he's right now i wish him well

But in other hands i think Chelsea owners are really the course of what's happening to Chelsea fc right now, i think coach isn't the most problem Chelsea needs to add experience players to the squad, they keep signing young players without much experience. Need experience players that will blend the young ones teach them how to play too not only the coach let's take Bayern Munich as an example, there're some experience players attached to the young ones if Vicente company happens to be Chelsea coach by now they most have sacked him since, he was coaching Burnley before Bayern picked him as their coach today he's doing well due to experience players over there so i think Chelsea owners and the board entirely are just doing business with the club.
