Premier League season 2022/23 Round 7
The sixth round of the Premier League season 2022/23 has witnessed a series of surprises.
Man United vs Arsenal: The confrontation of 2 philosophies
A year ago, Arsenal was in a crisis when they lost all of their first 3 matches in the Premier League 2021/22. The Gunners failed to score any goals, received 9 goals and showed an extremely weak face. Coach Arteta received a lot of criticism and the slogan "believe in progress" was seen as a joke.
Meanwhile, Man United live in happy days with a series of exciting news. Ronaldo returns to Old Trafford, Greenwood shines brightly, coach Solskjaer's tactics operate smoothly, the championship race opens in front of him.
But things have changed so much in just one year
Arsenal top the table with 5 wins in 5 matches. For the first time in many seasons, Gunners fans are starting to dream of something.
In Manchester, Solskjaer was gone, Greenwood lost his career because of a behind-the-scenes scandal, and Ronaldo made friends with the bench. The crisis at Old Trafford has just passed when coach Ten Hag got his first victories.
The biggest difference between Arsenal and Man United is the football philosophy that the two clubs follow.
Arsenal have great confidence in Arteta even in difficult times. The Spanish military leader also showed great patience and courage when he was determined to pursue a game of controlling the ball despite the bad results.
Step by step, Arteta helped Arsenal create captivating football reminiscent of the heyday of Arsene Wenger. The transfer contracts that this strategist makes are also to serve the way he plays.
But when everything seemed to be leaning towards Arsenal, Man United once again showed the ability to overcome difficulties with the spirit of the Red Devils.
With an excellent defensive performance, the army under coach Ten Hag made the Gunners hate. Antony and Rashford in turn (2 goals) took turns to punish Arsenal's mistakes. On the other side of the front line, the away team only found 1 goal thanks to Saka.
At Old Trafford, coach Ten Hag took another long step on the way to building Man United his way. Meanwhile, Arteta's philosophy was once again questioned. The Gunners have had a smooth play, have the right stars but still seem to lack the courage to grab the glory.
Pleasant surprises
The Merseyside derby takes place in the context of Liverpool and Everton in very different situations.
After a slow start, Liverpool are gradually regaining their "destructive" image when scoring 11 goals in the last 2 matches. In the 6th round (lived on VieON), the Red Brigade welcomed the return of Darwin Nunez after 3 suspension matches, the Uruguayan striker is extremely hungry for redemption.
In the opposite direction, Everton still seem to have not found many bright spots in the game. Coach Lampard is somewhat helpless, although the squad in his hand is not considered bad.
However, Nunez's desire was not able to concretize his desire into a goal. The Uruguayan striker was dead on the day Liverpool was deadlocked and only had a 0-0 draw with Everton.
Another match "between the two worlds" that also received attention is Aston Villa against Man City. Man City owns the best attack in the tournament, and Aston Villa has not kept a clean sheet.
Since the beginning of the season, Haaland has contributed goals or assists every game for Man City. And against Aston Villa, the Norwegian striker continued to shine with a goal to help the home team take the lead.
But this time, Haaland's goal could not bring all 3 points for Man City. Aston Villa played bravely and found the equalizer thanks to Bailey's goal. The match ended with a score of 1-1 and Man City missed a golden opportunity to take the top of the rankings.
