Arsenal Under Pressure From Manchester City
The title race keeps getting interesting and my prediction is slowly coming into existence as the weeks go by. Arsenal's draw last weekend against West Ham United has put them in danger of losing the top spot in the table and also their chances of winning the premier league trophy.
The Gunners are four points clear of defending champions Manchester City. City still has a game in hand and if they do win it Manchester City will be one point closer to the Gunners. The pressure on Arsenal keeps building up and it's getting to the players and the match against West Ham is an example.
Arsenal had a two-goal lead in 10 minutes and with a twinkle of an eye, they allowed West Ham to level the scoreline. Saka had a good chance to make it three from the penalty spot but missed the opportunity and it cost the Gunners at the end of the match. I expect Arteta to know better than anyone how Pep works with Manchester City since he was once under Pep Guardiola's wings before joining Arsenal.
Manchester City is not under any pressure they are in fact enjoying the race as they pressure the Gunners to retain their title. Pep Guardiola has turned the title race each season since he moves to Manchester City as a walk in the park, man has no chills and wants the title every season and if Manchester City does win the Premier League title this season then I don't think the EPL is as competitive as the Media and fans projected it to the public.
When Haaland first came into the Premier League, a lot of people including the media said he won't have the space he had in the Bundesliga to score goals but today the lad has got himself 32 goals in his first season in the EPL and the season is not over yet, so that misconceptions about the EPL being the most competitive league should drop.
The league is not over yet, the Gunners still have a chance to press forward and win the title and Manchester City will keep pushing forward to overtake and win the title. The next couple of weeks will be intense and I look forward to seeing how it goes down. So guys that will be all for now, thanks for stopping by, and have a good day.
Yay! 🤗

My greetings bro, yeah the onus lies on me Gunners now.
Nah, there's no misconception, it is veracity actually that the EPL is the most competitive. Haaland can't change that. You shouldn't even be looking at Haaland, never underrate the expertise of a coach please. A coach can make you play in Bulgaria daily meanwhile you are in the English league.[a parable].
So yes, those negative/shortsighted media were correct. They unfortunately didn't factor in the status and mind-blowing ability of City's coach.
Okay yeah,the player won't get the space as he had in Germany, but do they know a coach can create space from no space? A genius coaches City! City even plays a different style to Dortmund. Yes the English league gives a striker less space, but a genius like Pep can create space for a striker in the midst of the seeming scarcity of space.
And that's what has happened, Pep has asked him to not even bother much with carrying the ball as he did at Dortmund, then Pep repays him, by detailing to him with precision, where to find ample space and the guy just keeps using it. Warri say, e reach me, nor be long-throat.
So it's not that the EPL is weaker than perceived or overrated,nay, rather it is that a certain coach is even better than a lot of people credit him to be.
Nwannem, cheers.
Big man, your points are valid but check laliga teams vs EPL team head-to-head stats is that not enough points to prove the EPL is not better than Laliga. Yesterday Manchester United who are in the 3rd spot of the EPL table lost to Sevilla who are struggling this season in Laliga. Love to hear your response.
Thanks, we gatz give due credit to Pep.
I wish I had the time to talk about history and stats. What is clear to me is that this season, the EPL is the strongest, followed by the Italian, then the Spanish. Last season the Spanish were ahead of the Italians.
Fielding teams in similar league positions across the leagues, against eachother would tell some story.
Thanks man.
Cheers
