[EL MOHA]

Manchester United forgot to win during Ten Hag but since the current manager took over Manchester United but Manchester United started winning again. Manchester United is not in a good position in the Premier League because in the beginning they have lost most of the matches and lost the points as a result of which now they are not able to recover those points even if they want but in another competition they are still in a good position. So I would say that this team should be supported without criticizing and as a result of supporting this team should be praised as much as it performs well.

I will agree that Manchester United actually weren’t great under Ten Hag but I think it is time most of us move away from him and actually focus on Amorim. Ten Hag might have left the club in bad state but Amorim hasn’t done anything better too in the league, Ten Hag managed nine league games and only managed to win Three which yes was a bad start but Manchester United were just few points from European places while Amorim actually has managed 14 league games already and lost eight of them so I don’t get the points you said they are recovering because the distance to the European places are far more wide now compared to when Ten Hag left.

Do I blame Amorim? No by one bit it is not his fault the major blame should be going to Manchester United board who I think are the ones actually putting the club in its mess now. I thought the new faces at the top will bring changes but they seemed to be like the same old faces of the past. Why sack a manager mid season and go ahead to bring new one when you absolutely know you are not backing the new manager. They said they spent £14.7M to sack Ten Hag and Bring in the new manager, why go through all these when aren’t ready to back him in his first transfer window and they cajoled him to sale off the some senior players,  they should have left Ruud till the end of the season and Bring Amorim when it is summer so he can start his new tactics way earlier

Due to recent performance of Manchester United they are miserable club because they fail to have improvement and things are surely going badly down which are surely scaring for their fans those are feeling not good in this season even Amorim fail to bring any improvement is more problematic for them.

The board of directors had high hopes for Amorim when they appointed him as head manager, but the results have been far from what they had hoped for, with United struggling to improve their position in the league table and they are in danger of not playing in European competition next season.
It is very sad to see Man United still struggling to improve their performance despite changing coaches many times, if the situation continues like this, Amorim's fate will not be much different from Ten Hag.

I don't think there's anything sad in what is happening to Manchester United at the moment, they brought it upon themselves, do they actually think Amorim would do Magic with those average players that they have, Amorim is just trying to make do with what he has at hand. Manchester united have had about 3 different coaches in the last five years, this is outside interim coaches, this goes to tell you that, the Manchester united team needs players that can do the job, if you bring in a coach like Pep Guardiola into Manchester united with this set of players, trust me he will be struggling, united owners should open their Purse, that's the only Remedy.

Manchester united have a lot of problems that make them even worse at the moment, especially with the legacy of the quality of the squad that was very bad left by ten hag previously, in my opinion what the directors expected with the recruitment of amorim was a natural thing given his ability when coach sporting so far, but we know that the transition of coaches occurs mid-season and that clearly hinders amorim to make many changes and improvements to his current team, in my opinion, this season fans should not expect too much from amorim because after all he still needs time to fix his squad, so most likely next season we will see how amorim ability on coaching manchester united.

There is no guarantee that Liverpool can be consistent until the end of the season, especially since the remaining matches this season are still very long, so I think anything is still possible and the team that is most likely to put fierce pressure and also has the potential to catch up with Liverpool is Arsenal because they are only 7 points apart at the moment and these two teams will also meet again in week 36 later.

Tonight Liverpool will visit Aston Villa's headquarters, this is not an easy match because Aston Villa is quite strong when playing at home and I think it is not worth it to bet on Liverpool's victory with odds @1.87 because that would be quite risky, it is better to bet on over goals or BTTS.

Liverpool lost only once in the Premier League so far this season. But of course there is no guarantee they will finish the league in this way as well. I'm looking forward to the Manchester City-Liverpool match in a few days.

When it comes to today's match, I think Liverpool will win against Aston Villa away. Normally Aston Villa aren't easy to defeat but they aren't in good shape for a long time. Besides Liverpool also have a good history in away matches against them.

Unless Manchester United gets relegated at the end of the season, I don't see any reason why the club management would consider the results Ruben Amorim to that of the team under Erik ten Hag. Under Erik ten Hag, the club management signed too many world class players of which the Dutch manager suggested most of them to be signed but in his two years at the club, he have much to show for all the supports he received. Ruben Amorim like we all saw when he was at Sporting did incredible job in the Portuguese club but since he arrived Manchester United, he's struggled to replicate same feat and if you ask me why he's not living up to expectations, I'll say that the players at his disposal are probably not the quality of players that can play his style of football. If by the summer transfer window the club management goes on to sign players the Portuguese manager wants, then they can start comparing him with his predecessors if he continues to underperform next season.

I would say Liverpool consistency is guaranteed because the remaining days of the premier League is lesser than the long journey they have come and 70 percent has been achieved and till now their consistency has not dried, inconsistency is a work of injury but they don't have much that will make them less performing. About Everton they have a long list of people who are too dip on the injury they are having, is up to six players, so if they are unable to beat Liverpool with completeness I no they can't do it incomplete, so actually because of the absent players I'm okay to go with any odd of Liverpool because they have set the rope for Aston Villa, just the matter of little strength.

Nothing guaranteed so far. Liverpool recorded fewer lost, but they have still long way to go. I don't think they will be easily beating Aston Villa. They have difficult fixtures awaits them along with Arsenal. As long as they can get there points from all of hard fixtures. They win.

As for the game against Villa. They get 1.96, which is quite convincing me they will secure three points, but draw is possibly to happen, too.

As long as they can utilize three points from Westham. They are getting closer to the Premier League title. I take total over two in this game.

In their last two games in the league, Liverpool haven't been as convincing as they've been since the start of the season in the English Premier League but that I don't think should give us reasons to think that Arne Slot's men wouldn't be able to remain consistent till the end of the season. Arsenal if you ask me are more vulnerable to drop points than Liverpool in their remaining games of the season. Though I think that Liverpool should try and improve from what we've seen from them in the last two games, I have strong confidence in the club to win the English Premier League title at the end of the season.
In their game tonight against Aston Villa, I think your option of BTTS play out because Aston Villa is the home team but at the end, I expect Liverpool to steal all three points from the game

Premier league is definitely a tough league for every team, even if you are at the very top, it is a very tough league and not many people have an easy way out, which is why it is not always that easy to handle. Liverpool is at the top, but even they have hard time and this could be one of those games. It is not like other leagues, if Bayern or PSG had to play with a smaller team, they would have easier time beating and wouldn't be doubtful at all.

Even Real Madrid or Barcelona would feel more comfortable, I know they did lose points recently, but normally you would expect them to win these games as well. There aren't that many difficult situations at the moment and shouldn't really be considering how that could be different here.

The Premier League is very competitive. There are many clubs here who have strong squads and are able to play well against big teams. So it is very difficult to continue the winning streak in the Premier League.

Arsenal team has fought for the title in the last two seasons but they failed at the last minute. The team could not maintain the winning streak. Arsenal is fighting for the title this season too. However, whether Arsenal can become the champion will depend a lot on Liverpool's performance. If Liverpool does not lose points, Arsenal has no chance of going to the top of the table. On the other hand, Liverpool's performance so far is very consistent. I would say that if Liverpool can win their next three matches against Villa, Newcastle and City, then their Premier League title is almost certain.

Liverpool lost only once in the Premier League so far this season. But of course there is no guarantee they will finish the league in this way as well. I'm looking forward to the Manchester City-Liverpool match in a few days.

The only team that beat Liverpool was Nottingham Forest when they played the 4th PL match at Anfield.
Of course we want Liverpool's journey with Arne Slot for his first season which has reached this point not to end without a hope because since the beginning of his arrival we did not really expect that Slot could immediately bring Liverpool to win the PL.

When it comes to today's match, I think Liverpool will win against Aston Villa away. Normally Aston Villa aren't easy to defeat but they aren't in good shape for a long time. Besides Liverpool also have a good history in away matches against them.

When Aston Villa get two famous players like Rashford and Asensio, Villa's attack will be sharper. This match also takes place at Villa Park so I analyze that Liverpool's chances of winning are not that big even though Aston Villa's condition has not been so good in getting results lately.

I am also sure about consistency of Liverpool because a team having 18 wins and 1 lost from their 25 games never let this down easily while their squad depth is amazing and their attack is also at his best under Mohammad Salah supervision 60 goals scored and just 24 conceded just Arsenal is better with 22 goals.

Now coming two matches are going to be challenging for them Aston Villa and Manchester City, but it's going to be not big problem as they are playing right now because their defense and attack have good rhythm which is always helpful for teams and their players are also performing good under pressure. Aston Villa is having not good season currently they are having no win in last 4 Premier League games which is good advantage for Liverpool which is not going to face them.

The match is so interesting, Liverpool scored the opening then Aston Villa equalized, the both goals were defensive errors, the 1st one was an error by Aston Villa defender, Garcia  he mistakenly passed to Jota and made it easy for him to give a good assist to Salah, according to the commentator, it was a gift and he shouldn't be making such errors, whereas the goal Liverpool conceded was a poor clearance by Dominik Szoboszlai, he could clear Aston Villa's set piece and gave Tielemans the opportunity to equalize.

 I noticed how Aston Villa players are so aggressive on Mac Allister, I don't know if that was an instruction from their coach but they kept being tough on him and was like they wanted inflicting an injury, however Liverpool has the most chances Created but Aston Villa are not giving up easily they're leading and Liverpool now have to work harder if they want to win the match, it's currently 2-1 and they're on a half time break.

[pawel7777]

Aston Villa 2 - 1 Liverpool and we're at half-time.
Let's see iv Villa managed to drive that win till the final whistle. Despite the result, Liverpool has over 3 times more shots on goal, so the smell of equaliser is strong.
It's Marcus Rashford debut for AV, he's motivated and got something to prove.
If the result doesn't change, Liverpool would have 7 points advantage over 2nd Arsenal, but with one game more played, so potentially the gap could be reduced to only 4 points. AV would be in 8th place and still in the good position to fight for the top 4.

To be candid with you, Amorim was doing better in Sporting his previous club before now. He was doing everything possible to transform Sporting to a great place after he has signed good players after many years of failures in that club. He felt he has had enough and was ready for next task which I think Manchester United came in as a surprise when Manchester United needed a new coach and luckily he was appointed and even wanted to have his crew in his side but unfortunately, Premier League isn't some random league you can reshape.

To me, there were signs everywhere that Amorim wasn't fit for the job, he has lost to ETH twice in a home and away and he was made as the new coach of the club that has beat him twice, how does that even explain how he is going to transform the club but no changes yet. I hope he is able to do something better for the club so ayjeasg he is going to be here next season doing everything best possible to take the club be in a bigger position.

[el kaka22]

I do not expect Bilbao to win neither, while they are a good team, they are not close enough to win the whole thing, if any of the top three ends up doing much worse, maybe Bilbao could end up getting closer, which wouldn't be bad at all, but that doesn't mean we are going to end up with easier solutions that much. Right now, the league is between just three teams, and three teams alone.

We could even argue about how it could be between two clubs, sure Atletico Madrid is doing fine too, only one point behind, but we could see how Barcelona and Real Madrid looks like much better teams, so we could safely assume that they may end up winning the title as well. Which one? We have absolutely no idea, we are going to just wait and see who will win the whole thing. Every week there are unexpected results, and because of that we end up with not a good return, we could be seeing this changing for the long term and have some improvements for sure.

Liverpool is back to the game at the second half, now the scores is 2-2 with Liverpool playing more eagerly this time to get the ball again at the back of Aston villa's net to make it 3 goals on the lead surely. This game will probably end in draw cause it seems Aston villa is not ready to make things easier for the league leaders despite how offensive Liverpool are playing tonight. I am sure this wasn't the result Arne Slot had hoped for because dropping two points tonight gives Arsenal a close opportunity to match up points with Liverpool.

From the way Liverpool are playing currently, I don’t think Manchester city will be so difficult for Liverpool to win, Manchester City performance has been so weak to the extent that other strong teams are now seeing them as weak them, because they are always finding it easy to win Manchester City, city are even struggling to get a win when playing against weaker teams.

The champions league match is currently on, and Manchester city are playing against Real Madrid, it’s just surprising that the match is so easy for Real Madrid, Mbappe have been able to score hat trick in the match, and it hasn’t ended yet, maybe he will be able to score more goal before the match ends.

Seriously when talking about strong teams currently, then Manchester City shouldn’t be mentioned, because strong team shouldn’t be playing the way they are playing. Guardiola doesn’t even know how to fix Manchester City current problem, because he signed some players, but their is no much difference in Manchester City performance.

[ingiltere]

Finally Emery did a favor for Arsenal. This can also be considered as compensation for last year. Aston Villa held Liverpool to a draw. The match, in which both teams took the lead, ended 2-2. Liverpool is now 8 points ahead with one more game played. Arsenal has a chance to reduce the gap to 5 points. I hope they take advantage of this opportunity and beat West Ham United to close the gap. Liverpool will also play away against Manchester City the next day, they could be under even more pressure if the gap is reduced to 5 points.

And finally the result of the match between Aston Villa vs Liverpool ended in a draw with a score of 2 - 2. They shared points with the result so that Liverpool is currently still in first place in the EPL and 8 points behind Arsenal. While Aston Villa is in 9th place, only, their position is not safe if Brighton can win in the next match.

Just like a joke, Aston Villa Is now is big team both in England and Europe out large. It is now very difficult for Liverpool to beat Aston Villa and Aston villa is qualified in the Champions League that they don't need to struggle like Manchester City struggle and finally crashed out. I give all the accolades to Emery who transformed this club. Big names are now in the club and currently Aston Villa is much better than a club like Manchester United.

Who knows if Villa will go far this season's champions league and surprise the world of football. Not being defeated by Liverpool is a signal that wonders may happen.
