After Liverpool lost their consistency Arsenal appear as the strongest contender for the title and we can see it that since beated by Liverpool few months ago Arteta has succesfully to managed Arsenal performance and currently first place is belong to them and i think the ambition to gets the title is very close but Arsenal has a habit never playing consistent for whole season which i think Arteta should be concern to this record and if Arsenal can learn from their previous mistakes i think not impossible the title will belong to them however i am not their fans but this season potentially Arsenal will got at least 1 trophy

Just as if they are swapping, Manchester United picked up form and started performing well and Liverpool on the other hand started performing poorly, as if Liverpool and Manchester United swapped places. Arsenal on the other hand been so impressive and right now, they have no rival in the league and they are running away with the points. They are now well ahead of the rest teams. Let's see how the season will end though.

It was a really comfortable win for Arsenal... Burnley found their only serious chance by a last minute free-kick and that's all.    Gyökeres finally managed to score again in the league after a long while. From a classic set pieces of them.

I was really surprised by Forest's comeback by the way. Manchester United could have won this game actually. But their defense is still in bad shape which is the truth. 16 goals conceded in 10 games is just insane!

Burnley isn't any match for Arsenal at all, I'm even disappointed they didn't score more goals, Arsenal extends the margin once again, we'll await either Bournemouth, Tottenham or Manchester City to close it a bit. Califiori impressed today in this match, I love his display and accuracy.

Nottingham Forest we're quick to turn the tide around with two quick goals from Gibbs white and Savinho but was responded by Amad in the later minutes. Amad responded again towards the end of the match but Murrello ensured that the points were shared with the outstanding save. Manchester United team performance is quite improving, I give the coach and managers a thumb up.

Well, i guess Manchester United are fond of disappointing when football fans are confident that they would perform well. A friend of mine was even convinced that they might end up winning the title this season because of how they have been performing but today has just shown us that they are not consistent. They are occupying the 5th position and i hope that they don't go lower than that cause they might

[BIT-BENDER]

The Manchester United we know is back. Oh that's me joking. But this was a match I would have expected Amorim to win, Nottingham Forest hasn't been doing well lately even with a change of coach they still aren't the team to give Manchester United stress after they have won teams like Brighton, Liverpool and Chelsea.
Congratulations to Forest for fighting back after going down in the first half, they showed character and that gave them a point in the game.

I was expecting the frustration they gave Liverpool in this game but Arsenal did the necessary immediately the second half begins. Gyökeres scoring goals will lead him to scoring more, he need to be consistent with the scoring. Declan Rice was also another outstanding player who played well
Amad Diallo strike gave them the chance draw that game with his wonderful strike. Amorim will need two new defenders who can work hard for him. Bruno Fernandes was also not at his best during this game.  Liverpool may likely lose another game tonight if care is not taken.

I expected the winning and was thinking Arsenal was going to score a lot of goals since they played against a weak opponent. There was no point contemplating Burnley winning or drawing with Arsenal even though they played at home. This season seems to be different for Arsenal because in some previous seasons, they will win big teams and lose to small teams which was their major undoing and the reason they have not lifted the trophy for as long as I can remember. If they can continue to win small teams like they are doing and also getting points from the big teams, then there is every tendency that they will win the English Premiership this season.

On the defensive problems of Man United, we can all see that Andre Onana wasn’t the problem and Just like other players that have left Man United he’s doing much better where he is.
Arsenal is in a top form and momentum right now, they’re running over any team they meet now, it’s evident of all the hardwork and money put in to get the players, I believe they’ll continue on this form, the only thing that might slow them down will be injuries to several key players.
While the other teams are dwindling and swinging in form they’ve been consistent, once again the league is there’s to lose.

It's hard to believe MU is holding by a relegation team. This is their major problem when they looked strong against top club, but so damn poor against a relegation club. They lead the game from case's goal, but conceded two goals in a row after that.
Their horrible defense are the real problems. Their defenders were often feeling pani. They are all always rush to the ball and leave space for Forest to scored.

I feel so unhappy with the result. They should have gotten three points, but ended with one point only.

Arsenal kept their consistency 2-0 to Burnley is an extra point and an extra goal, the position is now quite comfortable for this week, at least a full week, now they focus on the champions league match against Slavia Prague, although they are not a big team but underestimating is not a good choice. At least Gyokeres is getting active again.

I was also surprised to see how manchester united could get a draw at the end, I was too focused on arsenal and just now I saw how ridiculous Man United could easily be turned around, honestly they could have kept the win if their formation was changed to a defensive formation in the second half.

[CryptoHeadlineNews]

It's 36 minutes already, and Chelsea is taking the lead with 1 goal to nil. Because João Pedro just scored it's first goal at 36 minutes, just few minutes ago, and yet Tottenham Hotspur seems not to be strong enough against Chelsea tonight. As it's obvious, Tottenham will also lose tonight's match just the same way they lost their previous game against Newcastle few days ago. Because if eventually Chelsea wins this game, then they will be moving forward to the 2nd place on the Premier league table, while Tottenham Hotspur drops from 3rd to 4th place if they lose tonight's game. But however, I'm having a strong feeling this game will end draw.

To be sincerely speaking for me, I don't even know what to say concerning Liverpool problem, because trust me, we are all confused and don't know what to say. No one expected this to happen and guess what now, the club as collapse in recent time.
Every one though slot is going to be the one that will definitely replace klopp, but what we are seeing now is unbelievable. For me I hope that Liverpool will come back to their winning ways so all this embarrassment will eventually stops.

This month alone, out of six matches played across three different competitions—the Premier League, Champions League, and Carabao Cup—the Reds have only managed one win, a Champions League victory over Eintracht Frankfurt. The rest of the season has seen them suffer a string of bitter defeats. Last season, Arne Slot simply continued what Jürgen Klopp had built, leading Liverpool to impressive form. However, after several changes Arne Slot made at the start of the season, everything fell apart, and Liverpool completely slumped.

And I'm quite skeptical about Liverpool's recovery in the coming weeks. Their next Premier League match will be against Aston Villa, who are currently in good form, not to mention Manchester City awaiting them in Week 11. And even moving on to the Champions League, hoping that Liverpool can regain their winning ways in the UCL, the next match will be a tough test for Arne Slot's team, as they face Real Madrid.

The irony is that Slot rode on the momentum of Klopp all last season and secretly demolished the foundations. The momentum has taken its toll and everyone is in shock that the house is tumbling down. £446 million spent in the summer and the team has somehow got worse. Isak is invisible, Wirtz is lost in position, and Gakpo (who costs a fraction) is bearing the creative burden since he is the only one who can adapt to this mess. Meanwhile Alisson is no longer an elite shot-stopper, but he looks like he is actually shaky, and no one is drawing the dots that it might be the system that is exposing him



Liverpool is already beaten by Crystal Palace three times this season. Three! Glasner has calculated that when you give them the ball deep and get them into slow build-up, then hit them on transitions when they are out of shape. It is essentially a sure victory. Villa used the same blueprint on City

Liverpool is looking down Villa today, Real Madrid midweek, and City next weekend. And Slot is already panicking with formation every match

I noticed something about Gyokeres. It seems he has synced in with the team. Playing as a 9 in their last two games has been a lot easier for him. I am happy he scored again today.

Manchester United made me loss a huge potential win. I never expect Nottingham Forest to come back in that game, to the extent of lading Manchester United. Well, both teams gained a point today.

Chelsea is doing well than last season but they are on the 4th position in the table now, and let see the ending of the game. The problem with Chelsea is that they are not consistent. They were at the top and if they maintained that they would have been in a good position, if they win tonight match, they will move upward again, but Tottenham Hotspur is attacking right now. Arsenal is on the top and if they do not win this season Title, then they should not participate in football again. Almost everyone saying the same thing that Arsenal will win this season title. And the second opinion is Chelsea.

[Stable090]

Just as if they are swapping, Manchester United picked up form and started performing well and Liverpool on the other hand started performing poorly, as if Liverpool and Manchester United swapped places. Arsenal on the other hand been so impressive and right now, they have no rival in the league and they are running away with the points. They are now well ahead of the rest teams. Let's see how the season will end though.

I don’t know what’s really wrong with Liverpool, I don’t know the cause of their current decline in performance, I never expected to see Liverpool performance dropped drastically. A team which won the premier league title last season are now struggling to win even the weak teams. If you can check the table now Liverpool are currently in 10th position, even as they are having one outstanding match to play.

Manchester United that everyone have been laughing are currently performing well, at least there is improvement in Manchester United performance even as Amorim is still having lots to work on, Manchester United performance is better.

Arsenal is currently at the top of the table, and they are not ready to drop anytime soon, but we all know how Arsenal is always performing every season, they are always starting well, and they don’t end the season well, let’s hope this season will be different, but Arsenal are currently playing well and I hope they will be able to continue with their good performance till ending of the season.

Chelsea this season has improved much more better than what they used to play last season, but it can also be seen that Chelsea has not  maintain a stable form this is due to the fact that Chelsea is undergoing a rebuilding process, and this is going to take a while before Chelsea can get a desirable team that will challenging for the title.



Maintaining this scorelines right from the first half against a team like Tottenham is a commendable one. Because these are the types of Games that one can tell if a team is good or not. And so far Chelsea has proven to everyone that they have quality in their squad a win for Chelsea will be good because they will maintain their top four spots.

Right from the onset I knew he was a good signing for Arsenal based on his previous record, all he just needed was more time to understand his new environment and blend with his teammates, luckily for Arsenal he didn't take too long to sync into Arterta's strategy. As for Nottingham Forest, it was a lucky day for them cause Manchester United would've stolen all the points like they suprisenly did in their last 3 previous matches, maybe it would've been possible if Sesko's hold up play was as good as it was in the match against Liverpool and United defenders did their job properly, well a point is better than no point.

[JiiBs]

The Manchester United we know is back. Oh that's me joking. But this was a match I would have expected Amorim to win, Nottingham Forest hasn't been doing well lately even with a change of coach they still aren't the team to give Manchester United stress after they have won teams like Brighton, Liverpool and Chelsea.

Are they really back? Is this it?

I think not, I think it’s way too early for us to say that. Although, their recent form could do them some good but, there is a question of either they could keep it.
They had the lead with the Casimero goal and they lost it, conceived 2 goals in less than 2 minutes and had to struggle till the 80+ minutes to get an equalizer. They missed some great goals, Casimero with that ball off the post and Nottingham Forest missed one important goal with an off target header that could have seen them 2 goals well ahead. Manchester United almost lost the game, that’s not a team that we could say its back.

Chelsea had a good performance in the game against Tottenham and it's a shame they only managed to score one goal despite trying over and over. Tottenham goalie was quite up and doing at the post and he helped a great deal to twart lots of efforts and saved some good attempts that could have resulted in more goals. I think his efforts ought to be recognized.
Chelsea, with their performance fully deserved the win and it's a pity that they could only score one. Nevertheless, they still secured the three points and that's what's important. A good game for Chelsea.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Out of the top clubs, Arsenal seems to be the only consistent team and they are on the right track to reach for the title for the first time in over 20 years.

I'm with you, things are turning around with the Premier League. Haven't you noticed that a team that wins the Premier League the following season becomes somewhat of a loser? Look at City, at Liverpool I think Arsenal is the team that has it made Consistency is what will get them to win, I hope they continue like this.
