Happy Holidays to everyone except the Glazers.
Thx
And Hitler tho he is dead
😂😂😂 happy holidays to you as well
Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone 🥳🍻
Chelsea fans need some gifts from santa thos year😢
A title race lasts 38 matches, is played between several teams, and in the end, City ends up winning
😂
🎯💯😂
I remember when the same was said aboit Man U. Back then everyone complained about their dominance. Now everyone misses those times.
Nah i think the arse will finally get it done this time city look weird
As a UTD fan and an Aussie, all I can say is that I hope Ange has a miracle haha
I was expecting City to be more than 6 points off the top at Christmas. If they weren’t already favorites in everybody’s minds I think surely they have to be right now, De Bruyne will be back and Pep’s new midfield signings are starting to click. City’s defensive weaknesses are going to be the decider in the title race and it’s likely that they will look far better with Stones back at 100%.
That being said I’ve really enjoyed watching football this season, Liverpool and Arsenal are genuine contenders, Aston Villa are scintillating and Tottenham are back to being entertaining. Going to be a great battle for the top 4. Happy holidays 🎄🥳
City are going to win the league again, I think the club World Cup will galvanise them to kick on and restore their season. As an Arsenal fan I hoped we could go all the way this year, but we aren’t clinical enough in front of goal and don’t kill off games. Our defensive core is doing wonders at keeping us relevant but we still have a mistake in us and a team like City will be relentless.
Even if we don't win this time around, a potential three point gap from the top can hardly be called a "mountain to climb" in my opinion
don't forget Lucas Paqueta, he will likely join City in Jan.
Here to remind yall... Debruyne is back . . . And he looks ready😂🎉🎉
@@danicacior4815 not only is he back, he’s back to his best 🤩
Liverpool dropped some unnecessary points in Anfield, but we'll see how they do in the 2nd half of the season
Twice this season, they've been pretty prolific at home
Just how on earth did we draw against United😭
@@sloth021United Defended and Defended good
@@kaidenhall2718 I know, but after hearing that the goat Maguire was injured, I really thought we would win😭
@@sloth021yeah but then Varane came in
The trio of Rice - Gabriel - Saliba are just rock solid. They are just so important for our team.
You guys would be in a dark place if it wasn’t for them , the attack this season has been very poor
@@Jnior12 defence wins titles.
Strikers aren’t the main players🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
No. Without goals u get 1 point@@shafsteryellow
attack wins games but defence wins titles if u wanna win u need an out and out striker if Liverpool wanna win they need a dnt city need debruyne and rodeo back and also need to find a proper backup for phillips
The fact that city have dropped so many points thus far this year and their only six points behind with a game in hand makes me feel like the inevitable is slowly hurtling towards us once again. However, I can't remember this many teams being in the mix. In previous years there was only one team that you would predict giving city problems in a one off game, but now there are three to five depending on the day. This is the only way city can truly be dethroned in my opinion, a true multi team title race.
Man City aren’t going to keep winning season after season
Konate and Saliba as a center back pairing for France wow
TAA hitting the crossbar nearly broke me.
As an LFC fan...that was his moment too. Broadcast did a good job of showing ball jumped up like 3 inches right as he was striking it though
Liverpool are 5-6 months into a rebuild, and still sits 1 point off the top with only one loss. Arsenal is the best team in the league atm, but when Liverpool click, they really click. They might not win the league this season because some stuff still needs to be figured out, but this Liverpool side is a monster in the making.
Me looking for a perfect dinner time video,
Tinashe: YES
Don't let this distract you from the fact that, so far this season, regardless of home and away, Arsenal have taken the most points out of all the "big six" when palying against each other
Practically City are just 3 points off the top. We expect them to win that extra game on any given day. One good thing is, no injury going into Christmas time for Arsenal. They have Partey, Elneny and Tomiyasu coming back. Timber is rumoured to be back from injury sometime before the season gets over. Finally they can be really ready to face the end race with all players fit.
Thanks for all of the great vids this year. Merry Christmas 👍✌️
Love your content, one of the best on RUclips probably THE BEST. Keep up the great work!
Love your channel my dude. Keep up the excellent work.
Bro please do a vid on Barça right now watching their games is just giving me depression. We seem to concede in the first 2 mins of every match miss open goals. Lewandowski has gone from being the best Striker two years ago to trash same with Raphina. The defence is gone the tactics and starting lineup don’t make sense. We are celebrating a win against last place as if we won El Classico Lewandowski tried to score with his ass in that game and we barely won. I need someone to make it make sense. I honestly feel as if we are as bad and inconsistent as United are.😔😔😔
Oof, sorry about that man. Worth looking into haha
Barcelona might finish out of top 4 this year as Bilbao is chasing them and Athletico Madrid for 3rd and 4th spot
@@jonathanfrimerman8855 nah we will be much better after the winter transfer window we will have Roque and in Feb ter stegn will be back.
Been a Fan of this channel for a while always great videos... Have you ever thought of doing video essays on the FIFA Hero Cards in Ultimate Team? It would be dope to learn about so of the more obscure players and why they have hero cards
Merry Christmas, and happy new years to you T 🍻
Trent should never have missed that chance regardless, it's ridiculous to even suggest that wasn't an atrocious miss just because the ball jumped, even if it did make it a harder chance
Should have laced it instead of side footing it
My benchmark for bad misses is if I could score the shot then them missing is unforgivable. Not to say that I would have, you give me that exact opportunity 10 times I miss a lot maybe even most of those chances but if a shot could realistically actually be hit by an average guy like me then a world class professional missing is a massive mistake.
You’ve never played footy
@@lol-bg4wh I have tho
That was one man who said that. It was a shocking miss. No one else is saying the ball bounced.
Dont celebrate but Happy Holidays to all! Also what a signing rice is 😂 unbelievable
City will probably win their game in hand and be only 3pts off the top with KDB ready to be the best 'signing' of the Jan window.
Arsenal and Liverpool will have hoped for a larger cushion with KDB out all season thus far
Funny how one player can decide if Man City won the League or not.
merry Christmas legend
Love the videos you are a legend❤
Merry Christmas bud, look forward to more in 2024
Idk how that was not a handball by odegard. He freaking did a marseille turn with his hand
Because it was the groundskeepers fault.
and dont even place it on on “arsenal bias” if ur gonna cuz even saliba said that should’ve been a pen, dont forget last season…
It's not. The player slipped, and the hand that stops the fall is the hand that touched the ball. It's not handball. Look it up.
@@RaZeyLWindBladE If you looked it up you would know, the rulebook says that any handball which makes the body bigger, and stops an opponent going past him is a handball. Also is an unnatural movement towards the ball. If you are just cushoning your fall it would be more towards his body, but he is clearly moving his hand towards the ball. Clearly a handball
@@RaZeyLWindBladEbro I've seen that clip several times and odegaard slapped the ball with his wrist
He slipped but his wrist did the movement
That Trent miss had me in physical pain🥲
Great analysis.🫡
Titles is finished, Thanks alot Mr Jinx
Second half De Bruyne gonna hit hard🤤
Is he single-handedly that important?
Don't see it myself, but can't write him off, man has earned the credit
You guys expect him to do miracles aren't you😅
Its the resurrection for the resurgence for the run, do you doubt city ?
What's he going to do for a city defence that's conceded 20 goals in 17 games??? You people don't live in reality😂😂😂
yess, right one time for my christmas dinner toilet break, perfect, man!!
The Darren Andertonisation of football has started!
Fun fact, Rodri is fine, he literally was jumping around during the CWC celebration and did an interview post gane that said he was fine. With KDB back, Rodri fit and firing, Foden on form, got a confidence and team spirit boost from winning the CWC and only 6 points of the top with one game in hand, City is very much still in the title race. Heck, KDB being back alone would probably be a big morale boost
Very interesting comment and analysis. I'm an arsenal fan
Merry Christmas
Big fan keep up the content
This will end up being a great 2nd place race between arsenal and liverpool
If Arsenal beat city JUST once last season they would've won the league
Hehehe but they got thrashed both times
@@aadityarajsuhane6159 I wouldn't say they got thrashed but city won both games decisively hence why they deserved the league and arsenal didn't 'bottle' it.
@@shafsteryellowyes we did. We definitely bottled it, if only saliba didn't get injured.
@@shafsteryellowcity put their full second team in for the final game, if they actually played their first team they woulda won
i was very disappointed in martinelli numerous times where we was very wasteful with the ball and held on to it for far too long. he should’ve been switched at halftime. Zinchenko had a poor game i believe if we had timber or tomi fit we don’t concede that goal. he’s a very good player but he’s not for the big games where he’s a liability defensively.
I'm going to believe only when we are in lead on gameweek 33. Until then just going to enjoy the ride !
Classic video
Nice lines
I totally saw the whole video and still typed first
Edit: MORE SPURS CONTENT PLEASE! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
Hero
0:02 I SWEAR THERE WAS A BOBBLE
Also in LFC's defense defense (heh), they are missing Robertson and Matip. And now Tsimikas
i’m a liverpool fan and the odegaard thing didn’t make too much difference, we scored 5-10 mins later so u could argue in that 10 minutes we could’ve scored again but it’s not like arsenal went 2-0 up or we only equalised late in the game
Great coverage as always! Pep will be smiling with that draw.
I would be happy for both Liverpool and Arsenal to win the league. They have always been my favorite clubs from England.
Yeah me too 😊 I would be happier if Arsenal win since Liverpool have won some trophies quite recently
I also think it would be nice if Arsenal wins. But I won't be mad if it's Liverpool either.@@apegraham9819
I'm with you in this from Uganda🇺🇬
Same with me but Aston Villa ranks up there too. Honestly anything but city is good
It's not like I am not fine with Aston Villa or any other team winning the league. I just think that Liverpool and Arsenal are the most likely to win that aren't called Manchester city. Though if City happened to play the best and most attractive football then I won't be mad if they win either as long as they deserve it. @@zamarokxl
8:04 yh that happened in 1998.
Merry Crimbo Tinashe
Remember, 248 days on top. City after christmas is god tier. Good luck prem
9:35 I thought you were gonna say they need a hammer.
And my Blues lose to wolves..
.but Merry Christmas Tinashe
as a liverpool fan id say the favourites are arsenal then city then us if no signings are made in january. Arsenal just look great in all areas of the pitch, they could do with a 20 goal a season forward but they don’t concede many and goals pop up from everywhere right now like city did in 21/22 with no standout scorer. City have no haaland, kdb or rodri right now and whilst haaland and kdb are back soon rodri their most important player might be out for a while with a knee injury, if he was back soon they’d be favourites but arsenal could make a big gap whilst he’s out. For liverpool we just don’t have the depth, konate will get injured at some point and we have no top dm at the club and u compared to these flawless teams in city and arsenal im not sure with the current situation we can go the length
The ball bounces slightly before TAA makes his shot, sadly if he'd had been calmer under pressure he'd likely be able to score after taking a first touch, instead of hitting through the ball on the bounce
it’s something Nunez would’ve finished… but Trent isn’t a striker… not used to those chances
That Arsenal kit maybe hasn't started growing on you but it sure looks like it's been growing on something.
We all know whats gonna happen in may😭 🔵⚪️
This won't even be a title race when de bruyne is back😂
Only away games against top sides in the 2nd half of the season for Liverpool is Arsenal. All other top sides have to come to Anfield. (I didnt include utd because they arent a top side and I would expect the OT crowd to actually try and play against Liverpool who will enjoy that as apposed a brick wall in front of goal.)
How's that work out for you?
Title race is intresting until Kevin FUCKING debruyne is back and city go on winning streak of MILLION matches 💀
Just saying this ... Debruine is back.... And he is READY.
"Jesus. Maybe they need Jesus." What a line my guy!😆
2:57 it wasn’t his fault gakpo doesn’t hold the line and plays gabriel onside so 🤷🏽♂️
Woodbury new evidence for is my need to monstrous defensive giants .
Saliba hauled ass both cutting the passing option to Darwin Nunez or space for Salah to shoot himself (which would have been Liverpool's best option .
The other pusa basmati Rice slowing them down enough to let Saliba recover cutting off Salah from shooting (I'm reaching) & forcing a bobble pass from Mo.
Lastly the final pas was bobbling to Trent who isn't a finisher this it went sky high
It would be incredible if that one bobble that caused TAA’s shot to go off the bar ends up making Liverpool lose the league…
Maybe his goals against city and Fulham would win Liverpool the league
Matip’s deflection lost us the league in 21/22.. so did Rodri’s handball and that joke of a 2-2 game with Tottenham. In 18/19 we lost the league by a few millimetres.
I’m just saying some other league analysts will be good too on this channel. Mary Christmas 🎄 everyone
I keep thinking of how many points away man city wouldve been if we won those games we drew
The people want to hear your opinion / mock plan on a proper next day for United. Trust me, I asked them.
Liverpool/Arsenal is the match of the season. Every Season.
What is the logo on your tshirt?
Some of the kits are kinda ass this season. But the ones I hate the most are Arsenal's neon green third kit and Man United's white and black away kit.
Only Arsenal can go from 1st at Christmas to 4th at New Year’s
3-1
Whats lacking for Liv is a world class 6 to tie it all together. But I feel a draw is a fair result, noting that Liv had the home advantage. I think Arsenal would actually win at home. Im biased, but I do think Arsenal are a bit more solid. Also, Arsenal blowing the bank for a striker in the summer is a scary thought. This team will compete for a while.
Unless it is a very competent ball playing 6 , it won't do Liverpool much good . Fabinho was passing sideways last season and slowing us down .
With Trent providing a double pivot to macca who has such incisive passing and szobo also dropping deep helping us out it helps out our attack . It's more about overwhelming and outscoring opponents for Liverpool.
Endo as a No. 6 has been doing good.
i agree on the away kit i dont like it, and i am an arsenal fan
Title race will be liverpool vs city...
The way you underestimated Man City is bizzare
They won the league by one game last year... Arsenal have become SIGNIFICANTLY stronger this season and took 6pts already from city.
@@skp8748Arsenal are bottlers don't make they trick you, and 6 points this season from who ? you're sick in your head
@@AshelyBarnes-no2tw they beat city that's a 6point game.
How are they bottlers? They were ONE game away from winning the league last year but lost to the best team in the world.
Not underestimating them at all.We know what they can do. Plus they have a game in hand.
All i want for christmas is the xhaka videooooooo
KDB is back. That's all I'm saying
at least for now, tottenham villa city liverpool and arsenal are in the mix. So at least top 4 is gonna be a great fight
😂 Tottenham
Arsenal and Liverpool yes
@@skp8748 to be 4 points off top with all those injuries is quite the acheivement but stay ignorant
This is great game because it was an evenly matched game and both sides just wanted to play football. Never seen such a drama-free game in my life. Props to Klopp and Arteta for assembling 2 wonderful grps of fine young gentlemen. 😂😂
yeah sure drama free 😂 first it's the basketball turn by odegaard and then saka playing snooker with tsimikas and klopp lol. other than that, it was really a good game
If West Ham win their game in hand, I think the title race will be between 6 teams if you look at the table. But let’s be honest, Man City is winning.
aston villa have been cooking
For the people who say city will inevitably go on a 15 winning game run like always do, when was the last time city conceded 20 goals in the first 17 games? And what will dramatically improve this major problem that will allow for a 15 game winning run to happen?
The producer's name, Tinashe Chipako is a Zambian name, wonder if the creator is from Zambia?
Interesting match. I was scared every time Salah was attacking Zinchenko's position. It was a mismatch. I'm fine with the draw.
"How do we explain to our children how Liverpool didn't score here?" Honestly, what is that??
Yeah I’m not falling for this
City will go unbeaten from late January-the end of the season and win the league again.
can people stop saying rice stopped the 1v5, he did everything he could ofcourse by not letting salah shoot but any defender would’ve done the same as him. There’s no way salah would’ve taken rice on he was always gonna pass unless rice commited to marking the runners instead giving salah a free goal. Arsenal were lucky salahs pass was bobbling so trent couldn’t get the cleanest strike across goal that’s all. Rice didn’t stop liverpool scoring but he did do all he could simple
Are you ready for that moment in March/April when the title race will have fizzled out as always and the only race that matters will be for avoiding relegation?
Are you South African brother?
KDB gonna come back and show everyone their place . lolz\
The point is making all of you dizzy
It’s a 5 way title race right now and it’s great.
Agreed
Its a 5 team race down to the very wire
When you understand that tje best The best defense in the PL letted a 1v5 situation happen and the best attack didn't score this😂😂
Liverpool once lost 1 league game all season and didn't win the league.
Why? They drew like 7 games
arsenal out of title race its liverpool v city now lmao
For Liverpool to win the league I believe they need to invest in a striker. It feels like the weight of scoring for Liverpool is put on Salah too much... Imagine this Liverpool side with a striker or another winger who can consistently get you goals, that will be scary...
Darwin Nunez
He is not scoring consistenly@@monkeydluffy736
"You honor, I cannot be charged with homicide, because although my knife wound up in the victim's chest, I was falling, you see, and I didn't mean to. No intent." You can tell me 100 times that Odegaard's handball wasn't a penalty, and I'll call you full of it 100 times.
Terrible comparison
Yep, even if it's by accident, it's still your fault. It's called manslaughter( the same logic applies to if you *accidentally* break someones window
@@ArsenalGunners89 Bother to read the "full of it" part at the bottom there?
Bad comparision, because intent matters a lot in criminal law.
How are we suppose to explain to our children that Liverpool didn't score here, Tinashe you are too funny.😅😅😅😅
Incoming united video
its over... the FA and refs have displayed a thieving attitude toward Liverpool. How many times did VAR screw them up? It is no longer easy to consider all these coincidences...
If Trent should've scored than so should've Martinelli which was literally the easiest chance of the game. Both teams fluffed their chances and GKs hardly had to do anything the entire game.
Premier league is wild
