Today was quite a busy day for me, as I tried to follow up with most of the games I'm different leagues. The English premier league was the most exciting, and I really enjoyed the games today.
The early kickoff between Newcastle and City was battle to watch,.as both sides compete heavily in the game, but ended up sharing points. Haaland presence wasn't effective today, as there was he didn't receive too many passes or crosses. Nice goal for gvardiol, but Newcastle had to level the game with a penalty conceded, which gordons converted. I just feel that city might struggle a little this season, considering the fact that Rodri will be out for a very long time(maybe till next season), and KDB is currently out. ake who got injured during the international break might also be out for the next 2 months, so I feel things might no be looking good for city, and also considering the increased number of games from the UCL.
Arsenal on the other hand, almost lost their opportunity of catching up with Manchester city on the table, as their opponent (Leicester) came from 2 goals down, to draw the game 2-2 before the 75mins. But during the additional 7 minutes of added time, arsenal has to complete the job as they won 4-2. Personally, I feel such style of playing is not necessarily, due to the unnecessary fear it generates among the fans. So as it stands, Arsenal are 3rd in the table, and on same point with City who are 2nd.
Cole palmer out out a good performance for Chelsea today, as they won their game 4-2 even before the second half.
