Manchester City made me really worried about them for once during the Luton game. Because when I saw Luton scoring first it was quite surprising to me. I know how their condition is in the league these days. But they played against one of the easiest teams to beat. They won the game maybe but it should have been much more comfortable than that.

Haaland wasn't even in the squad today by the way. I saw it like he was injured but this wasn't much convincing to me. Maybe Guardiola just didn't want to bring him to Luton. But there was no need for him to win the game of course. Alvarez filled his place nicely.

I think, this injuries is really affecting the Manchester city players and it has made them to look small to some small teams they used to defeat with many goals with so much strength through out the match. Many people nearly lose hope in this match when Luton Town gain access to Manchester city goalpost to scored first goal to lead the match1-0 for the favour of Luton Town in the first half. But despite Erling Haaland was not among the players, they where able to succeed to defeated Luton Town 1-2 in the second half to prove to people that they will soon return back to the first position in the premier league table when their potential strikers recover from their injuries.
This victory is very valuable after they could not win in 4 consecutive matches. Even though they had to fall behind first, they managed to turn things around in the second half and make them win. Overall, nothing has actually changed from Mamnchester City's appearance, it's just that now they are quite declining in terms of scoring goals. I don't know what the main cause is, and one of the things I got from my analysis, the enemy began to know how they attacked and created goals, so the opponent began to anticipate the very dangerous things done by Manchester City.



Finally Tottenham have managed to put an end to their bad streak in the Premier League by a great performance.  Smiley  They played very dominantly against Newcastle home and had a great day at finishing as well. Richarlison and Son were in their good days to carry their team. Richarlison scored 2 goals while Son had 1 goal and 2 assists.

I would have liked to see the same performance from Tottenham against West Ham as well. But this is still a good step forward for starting to recover. Next time they are facing Nottingham away which is technically a more comfortable game. The winning streak should be continuing.
Just like Mamnchester City, they got a very valuable victory this week and can make their morale even better. It is a very difficult thing when they are at the top of the standings and after that receive consecutive negative results and ultimately place them from the top 4 of the standings. To be able to get up and be able to win again like this is really something difficult, especially the opponents they face are also opponents that cannot be underestimated.

On the one hand this is a good result for Tottenham, on the other hand this is bad news for Newcastle because they suffered another painful defeat in this match. Yes this is their 6th defeat in the Premier League and is their second consecutive defeat, and is their 3rd defeat in the last 5 matches.
