EPL Title Race Still Not Certain For Arsenal
The EPL returned yesterday with Chelsea playing against visitors Fulham at Stamford Bridge, the game ended in a goalless draw as both teams failed to score in the match, it was not the result Chelsea supporters and their new owner Todd Boehly were expecting with all the huge money he spent in the winter transfer window, his reactions say it all that he was disappointed Chelsea did not win against Fulham yesterday. The team still needs a little time to adjust, because most of the players are still new to the EPL, and if Potter is as good as they calm him to be with the level of talent he has in the squad he should be able to deliver the good result as quickly as possible.
Now to today's headline, Arsenal lost their second game of the season to a 19th-place Everton this afternoon. The loss came as a shock to me because I was sure this match was an easy win for the Gunners. After all, Everton has been struggling this season. Tarkowski scored the only goal of the game and was assisted by McNeil. The loss against Everton could disturb Arsenal's Campaign for the EPL title and just when I began to believe Arsenal could win the title but they confirmed my doubt.
Arsenal has been brilliant in the first half of the season, but it is still not enough to secure the title for them this season and this loss will put pressure on them because I am sure Manchester City and Pep are somewhere smiling and plotting how to demolish Spurs tomorrow to close the eight-point gap on Arsenal, to add salt to AArsenal'sinjury they are going to face Manchester City on the 15th of February, which is a crucial game for both sides in the race for the EPL title.
Manchester City has won all five games in the last five meetings of both clubs, it is safe to say Pep knows how to handle them and would probably take all three points when they meet on the 15th of this month. If Manchester City beats Tottenham tomorrow they will be two points away from Arsenal, Liverpool fans can testify that whenever their team stays comfortable at the top Manchester City will come from behind and overtake them on the table.
This season will have a thrilling end am sure of that and we might just be in for a shock and I am in for all the surprises it will bring at the end. So guys that will be all, for now, thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend.
