I was just surprised by the results of Liverpool vs Southampton, Liverpool were very kind in that last game, they gave Southampton a good experience.

I was even more surprised to learn that Southampton decided to demonstrate their might toward Liverpool at the end of the league by holding them to a draw (4-4) match even though they had already been kicked out of the premier league.
What does Southampton seek to establish? Why didn't they demonstrate their strength during their time in the Premier League rather than now? I have been asking myself this question in response to Southampton's performance against Liverpool.

How the match started and how it ended was full of surprise. A 2-goal lead, before we knew it, Southampton drew the 2 goals defeat and started leading them by 2 goals (4-2), which Liverpool eventually equalized (4-4) in the game. That's interesting.

These types of teams Always show their strength last and I think I have said this at the beginning of football seasons in LIGUE 1 , Bundesliga, PL , if a team showed this level from the beginning they would not have such a strong job Finally , if you don't have to ask Bayern how they Suffered so much when Dortmund began to weigh on their heels, this type of team is like that , now what Southampton did was a great feat . The only thing is that he showed more level to the last and almost when it doesn't make sense to do it, that's fine , I know that encourages them , but I think they have to be consistent.

In fact, the Arsenal team once performed exceptionally well. In earlier days no other team could have secured victory easily with Arsenal team. But currently the performance of the Arsenal team is not consistently good. Compared to previous performances, Arsenal are far behind now.

Arsenal failure to win the EPL was due to mistakes they made towards the end of the season, they failed to maintain their performance which resulted in losing a lot of points so that Man City took their position. This failure is a history that is hard to forget for Arsenal, they managed to sit at the top of the standings for a long time but ultimately failed to become champions. I don't want to talk about the winning mentality, Leicester City, who once won the EPL, have standard players who don't have high prices.

Arsenal must learn from their mistakes, this season's failure has become a valuable lesson for Arsenal. Apart from failing in the EPL, Arsenal also failed in the UEL even though they are highly favored to win the competition. Next season the EPL will be more competitive, Chelsea and Liverpool are rearranging their squads as a result of their failures this season, while Newcastle will be a very busy team when the transfer market opens after successfully qualifying for the Champions League. Currently there are around seven strong teams in the EPL, Arsenal could be knocked out of the top four next season if they are unable to maintain their performance.

I think that apart from what you say it is very true, but for me the real culprit for this is the technical director, because it is a case very similar to what happened to Chelsea, with great players and with a lot of talent and they did not hesitate. do absolutely nothing, this is something that means that things can be done in other ways, I personally think that, apart from the fact that Arsenal sometimes plays well or badly, then it is ruled out that the players are to blame, This is something that cannot be ruled out, however, according to the experience I have in football, for me the culprit is the coach, just as Madrid lost the opportunity to reach the UCL final, it was only Ancelotti's fault.

Aston Villa 'delighted' to reach full agreement on Youri Tielemans transfer as Arsenal miss out on midfield target

Quote

Aston Villa have agreed a deal to sign Youri Tielemans this summer, the club confirmed.

   Villa reach deal to sign Belgian
   Leicester contract expires at the end of the month
   Will join new team on July 1

WHAT HAPPENED? Villa have announced they have agreed a deal to sign Tielemans on a free transfer, with his Leicester contract set to expire at the end of this month. He has been with the Foxes since 2019 and has clocked 195 appearances for the club, although he was unable to prevent their relegation this season. Perhaps his greatest moment came when he scored the winner in the FA Cup final in 2021.
