Pep and Salah

Manchester City Lose Again as Liverpool Go 5 Points Clear after Beating Aston Villa

Manchester City is currently on their worst losing streak in the Premier League since Pep Guardiola joined the club after another loss. Brighton & Hove Albion F.C. beat the champions in a comeback win after City had gone ahead in the first half with an Erling Haaland goal. In the second half, City lost their plot as goals from Joao Pedro and Matt O’Riley overturned the result to give City their second loss in the league in a row. The result leaves City 5 points behind Liverpool, who continue to prove to be great title challengers after another home win against Aston Villa. Sealing the win for Albion on his #PL debut! 🙌 @MonsterEnergy ⚡️ pic.twitter.com/c7PUX2Xmt0 — Brighton & Hove Albion (@OfficialBHAFC) November 9, 2024 Liverpool shock Aston Villa In the final game of Saturday night, November 9, Liverpool showed their title contention was not just a fluke as they comfortably beat Aston Villa at home. Despite Villa’s efforts to make it difficult for the Reds, a first-half goal from Nunez Dias and a second from Mohamed Salah in the final minutes of the game saw Liverpool take an incredible lead in the title race. Salah, whose contract is up in the summer, showed why he is the man of the moment with a goal and assist in the game, taking his tally to 20 G/A for the season so far. Salah secures the three points 👑 pic.twitter.com/E4cKwmvKVo — Liverpool FC (@LFC) November 10, 2024 It was surprising that both Liverpool goals came from counterattacks after Aston Villa set pieces, something Unai Emery’s team was expected to handle better. The defeat leaves Villa eighth, with their fixture list becoming more complex as they try to make a name for themselves in the Champions League. Other results on Saturday, November 9, saw Brentford beat Bournemouth 3 goals to 2, with Crystal Palace losing at home with two goals against Fulham. Westham was held to a draw by Everton at home, as Wolves finally left the last spot to Southampton after defeating them at home with two goals to none. Arsenal and Manchester United take to the field today, Sunday, November 11. Both expect good results, but it could be a bit difficult for Arsenal as they head to Chelsea for the last match of game week 11.

Manchester City and Spain Midfielder Rodri Wins The Ballon d’Or Amidst Controversy

Manchester City and Spains midfield maestro Rodri became a Ballon d’Or trophy after an almost perfect season in 2023 – 2024. The holding midfielder was awarded the trophy in Paris after helping his country Spain to the Euros and also winning another Premier League title with Man City. Apart from those coveted trophies, in the last one year, Rodri also won the Eufa Super Cup and Club World Cup with his parent club. Rodri became the first Manchester City player to ever win the award and showed up to the stage on crutches as he’s currently out with a long-term injury. The 28-year-old won the award ahead of Real Madrid trio of Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham and Dani Carvajal who followed behind respectively. Real Madrid No Show The move saw Real Madrid boycott the event, as no player, manager nor official showed up to the award in support of Vinicius, whom they believed should have won. Real Madrid won the award for best male football club in the world, but no one was there to accept the trophy on stage. In the last 18 months, Rodri has only lost one match while playing for Manchester City and that is their defeat to bitter rivals Manchester United in the FA Cup final. Rodri, it’s all yours! #ballondor pic.twitter.com/OeyieiRQYe — Ballon d’Or (@ballondor) October 28, 2024 It was the first time since 2003 that Lionel Messi and, an eight time winner and Cristiano Ronaldo, a five time winner, did not appear in the list of nominees. The award recognises the best footballer of the year and a jury of journalist from each of the top 100 countries ranked by FIFA are given the task to pick the winner. Barcelona’s Spain midfielder Aitana Bonmati won the women’s award for a second time.

In a statement by the club on their official website, they thanked Ten Hag for everything he’d done during his time at the club and wished him well for the future. Going forward, United legend Ruud van Nistelrooy will take charge as interim coach, supported by the current coaching team. The club has made it very clear that they will be looking for a permanent manager going foward. Despite winning two trophies, the Carabao and FA cup, Ten Hag’s playing style and underwhelming performances have always been a problem. BREAKING: Manchester United have sacked Erik ten Hag with immediate effect. 🚨 pic.twitter.com/oq1Nyx5nHD — Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) October 28, 2024 His demeanour and response to question in the media also didn’t convince many of his process and this just added on to the fire.

Game week 6

Manchester City Held to Draw, ‘Cold’ Palmer Destroys Brighton As Liverpool and Arsenal Win

Saturday football in Game Week 6 of the Premier League saw a lot happen that brought more competition in this season’s campaign. Manchester City was the first team to go out at 2.30 pm EAT, away at Newcastle United, a team that was missing their best striker Isak. However that proved to have no effect on The Magpies as they ensured to keep City at bay and even at times put them under a lot of pressure. Gravidol scored the first goal after great play from Jack Grealish off the left side, the Croatian senta defender to dead before curling a lovely shot with his right foot into the far corner. In the second half, Gordon kept himself onside to land in a lovely through pass, dribbled past Ederson who took him down for a penalty that he converted himself. The game ended in a draw. Chelsea and Arsenal Win Chelsea and Arsenal also had great wins with Cole Palmer netting in four incredible goals in the first half to become the first Premier League footballer to ever do that. Despite Brighton getting two sloppy and easy goals, It was pretty comfortable for Chelsea who had a gameplan to counter Fabian Hürzeler’s men. Arsenal ended winning comfortably despite a huge scare as recently promoted Leicester came back from two goals down in the first half to put The Gunners in serious pressure. Wilfred Ndindi gave Arsenal the three points after scoring an own goal late in the game to send his side into the bottom 5 in the league. Liverpool Go Top As for Liverpool, they had a penalty to thank for their narrow win against Wolves away on Saturday night. Salah converted the penalty just minutes after Wolves had gotten an equalizer from Ait-Nouri in a moment imbrahim Konate will want to forget. The win saw Liverpool go top of the table and will end this game week as leaders. Manchester United welcome Tottenham Hotspurs to the Old Trafford today and both will be hoping to keep pace with the front runners. Both clubs have had an inconsistency start to the season and they will look to put each other on the sword to get the three points, which will give either great spirits going forward. A draw will not help either.
