Currently Arsenal only have one chance to win the trophy, namely the English League after they were eliminated in the Champions League, while Manchester City still has an FA that they should fight for in addition to the EPL trophy, as well as Liverpool who now still have to fight in Europe and the EPL, in this case of course Arsenal has a looser schedule than the other two teams,  But unfortunately Arsenal also have a tough game left with still to play against Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham, so I think Arsenal's chances of winning the league are very small compared to Manchester City and Liverpool, for a strong candidate to win the Premier League this season of course I agree with you, because indeed with 6 games left of course everything can happen,  But despite all that, of course, we must be realistic in seeing all the possibilities that exist today.

Arsenal and Liverpool are in a decline in their performance, besides that the remaining relatively difficult opponents of course have the potential to make them lose points at least in the next one or two games, while Manchester City, although they have just been eliminated from the Champions League but still their performance is very extraordinary because they are able to hold Madrid, in addition to Manchester City's performance which is quite consistent, of course the rest of their opponents are easy make reasons for me to favorite Manchester City won the trophy this season.

We losing the champions league, will make us more play with more determination we can not afford to lose the two and since we just defended the about 3 titles last season, since things did not go as planned, all our focus now will be more on the premier league. Manchester city will not go without picking something. We are trophy oriented we always like keeping records. We losing the champions league am not bothered since we have the premier league, Liverpool and arsenal don’t stand a chance anymore and they still have a long way to still go. Both of them have the same point.

I always trust what ever idea pep comes with even if the plan will eventually fail, but still they will feel is impact, the best coach for Manchester City have gotten should be pep because that dude is always trying to keep up and always want to lead that is pep for you.

6 matches, but Man City has a match schedule that in my opinion has a greater chance of winning the match. Of course, this is only a prediction based on the potential of the players, where the results in the match may not match expectations, even though City has better players than their opponents. Therefore, I think it is less possible for Liverpool and Arsenal to catch these points, even if you think it is only 2 points.

The UEFA Champions League is Europe's biggest and most prestigious club competition and every club in the continent will always prefer winning it than winning their domestic league so it's absolutely illogical for anyone to think that Arsenal decided to get eliminated from the UEFA Champions League because they want to focus on the English Premier League. Arsenal gave their best but unfortunately for them, their best wasn't just enough to help them progress to the next round of the competition and would now turn their full attention to the English Premier League.
The bad news for Arsenal is that English Premier League leaders Manchester City have also been eliminated from the UEFA Champions League competition which means that they'll still be very focused in making sure they win the league title this season

I never thought that someone would deliberately leave the Champions League competition to be able to focus on the Premier League, that's not a logo in my opinion.
Arsenal is a team that doesn't have a good mentality, so when they are pressed, like at the end of the season, when the pressure is heavy, this team will lose concentration, which will have a negative impact on the team's performance.

I see that Man City and Tottenham are two very different teams now, regardless of what happened in the past, but in my opinion everything is different now and it must be admitted that this season Man City is much stronger so Man City's motivation is greater. To be able to win the Premier League title this season, I have no doubt that Man City will be able to beat Tottenham so that they can maintain their position at the top of the Premier League standings.

Even if he wins the EPL title, it cannot be compared to Xavi Alonso's success at Leverkusen. He's been at Arsenal since 2019 with no trophy but Xavi one and half season at Leverkusen, he has won the bundeslilga and may likely add 2 more silverwares.

The fact the Liverpool and Arsenal dropped points during the weekend do not mean they are out of the race. The gap between Manchester City and both teams is it's just two points, there's still 6 more games to be played and anything can happen. 19th may will be the decider.

Yes, you are right it wouldn't be the right thing to see these achievements at the same level. Xabi Alonso's is just at another level.    But it is clear that Arteta would always be remembered as a special coach for Arsenal if he puts an end to this 20-year title longing. Doing this with a really young squad would also be really great work.

What about Everton's chance to stay in the Premier League? 



They are once again in a really dangerous area in the standings... They are only 2 points up the relegation zone. Do you believe that this would be the year they drop to the Championship? I'm even surprised with Sean Dyche's still managing Everton for this long. I assume they wouldn't like to sack him for now while there are only a few weeks left.

There are matches to be played against Nottingham and Luton both. If Everton win both then they are saved! I hope they can do this.

yep, Man City dominance is still the main factor in giving Man City a strong push to win another title in the EPL, but the problem here is that Liverpool, which only 2 points behind, can still take over the top of the standings if they can steal 3 points from Fulham in the upcoming match.
on the one hand, Fulham is currently still a team that is having difficulty maintaining consistency and more precisely looks like a mediocre team that will only finish below the top 10 in the EPL standings.
meanwhile, Man City currently feeling down with their failure to win the UCL title because they were defeated Real Madrid and it has been proven that Man City this season is not as strong as last season and Liverpool still has a big chance to take over the top of the standings.

Arsenal, more precisely, mentally not ready to compete for the EPL title this season even though they have an experienced line up of players but in fact they are still having difficulty maintaining consistency and I will say once again that Arsenal has no chance of getting the EPL title this season.

Your love for Manchester City and Pep Guardiola shouldn't block you from making proper analysis because that's all you're doing. They're always finding it difficult to beat Tottenham Hotspur and this is not something new, you can go do the checks yourself.
With the draw or should I say lose tonight, Manchester City would still go onto the next game and repeat the same results against Brighton.
Roberto De Zebri since he got knocked out of the UEFA European Europa League Competition has been poor but he would surely get a positive results against Manchester City.

Against all odds, I would still love to see Arsenal winning the Premier League Competition, it's not over as I still have faith that they could make and turn things around.
It has always been my plan for them to leave the Champions League Competition so they can focus on the Premier League Competition alone

The journey is still enough to overtake each other at the top of the standings, however, this competition still has 6 matches remaining. It is not an easy matter for City to finish, there are still matches where City could slip up or be held to a draw by the opposing team. whether it's Spurs, Brighton, or another mediocre team. We will never know what will happen in the remaining matches until the end of the season, because it is possible that Manchester City could slip up.

What is certain is that we will follow it every week even though City is currently at the top of the Premier League standings. We know that Pep Guardiola is a genius coach, but in football anything can happen. As long as this competition is not over, it is clear that Arsenal and Liverpool are a threat to City. Both teams hope that City slips up, but there is still a chance even though Manchester City has a big chance of retaining its title this season. We'll see how it ends up, the competition is still very interesting and might provide something surprising.

 Man City over the years have remained very dominant in the league and they’ve won the league for a period of 4 times in over 5 years and are currently sitting on top of the league. Liverpool and Arsenal fell to defeats over the weekend and I think this will be one very big one for Man City to capitalize on as the season comes to an end.

 ⁠Arsenal defeats isn’t all surprising especially after they did the same thing last season so we all knew the possibilities of it happening was quite high and now we can only imagine what holds for the club. I think the players mentality to an extent have now dropped and owing to the tough fixtures they’ll be having I can only imagine how much it’s going to be possible fr them to bounce back on time.

 ⁠For Liverpool, well a lot are still hoping on them especially as they’ve been able to give Man City some tough time about 3 seasons ago. Many believe they have the experience in knowing what it means to be able to fight for top spot in the league and I also feel they will probably end 2nd in the league with the way things are going.

 ⁠Man City achieving the treble this season might be pretty difficult for them especially with them facing Real Madrid tonight and Chelsea again in the FA Cup over the weekend. You can see that the team have a lot of work to do and also they must make sure they try to stay on top to be able to achieve success in the league.

More precisely, whatever happens, I really believe that Manchester City will still lead the Premier League and end this season by lifting the PL title this season.
After this, there will be no tough matches for Manchester City, even though Tottenham could be the club that prevents Manchester City from getting 3 points, but we have to know that Pep Guardiola is a smart coach and can always get the right tactics to beat Tottenham.
Arsenal might be a threat and Liverpool could also put pressure on Manchester City but for me these two clubs have very little chance.

There is something we missed from this discussion when we look too closely at how the top clubs compete in the upcoming matches. I just realized that Manchester City's current position really has a big opportunity from 1 postponed match and with this postponed match it will provide 3 additional points for Manchester City unless in the remainder of this match Pep Guardiola's troops suffer 2 defeats, they might find it difficult.
But it is impossible for Manchester City to experience consecutive defeats because as I said, there is no tough match schedule that Manchester City will go through.

To be fair, that is how Chelsea should have been to begin with, so when they are not doing anything like this, they are actually not doing well and this type of game should have been how they are playing all season long. Looking at their situation right now, we could say that they are not doing that well and could be a problem for them on the long run. I believe that they are trying their very best and I believe that we are going to see them do much better.

We should consider how they could do next season, if they keep the most of the squad and do not lose any good players, then they are going to need a new manager who could play these people, then they could probably go for top six, and even fight for top four as well but that will be difficult.

Manchester City is currently at the top of the standings with a two goal difference from Liverpool and Arsenal, so for now Manchester City still has pressure to continue to maintain their performance, talking about the toughest opponents, of course only Tottenham has the potential to make things difficult for Manchester City in the remaining matches of the season. However, I think Liverpool and Arsenal fans shouldn't be too happy because after all Manchester City doesn't want to lose any more points so they will minimize every mistake that might occur in each of the remaining matches, I personally see that maybe Tottenham won't be able to beat Manchester City even though Maybe Manchester City will have difficulty in this match.

Let's say if Manchester City loses 3 points against Tottenham, of course Arsenal and Liverpool are not guaranteed to win in all their remaining matches this season, and I personally tend to see that Manchester City will be able to win the English League this season because they have all the conditions to become championship.

Nothing is impossible in football it all just depends on them and how they perform, it is not going to be easy because throughout the season they have been inconsistent and that has been their major problem and an inconsistent team cannot be trusted. If the other teams doesn’t drop any point then it will be difficult for Chelsea to move to 6th place but if they are determined they can make it happen.

If Chelsea can will all their remaining fixtures? I don’t think they can because they still have some tough matches to play like against Arsenal and Aston Villa but Tottenham will surely lose matches because they will be playing against the top teams and it is certain that they can’t win all matches but even if they lose the 5th place i don’t think Chelsea can occupy the 6th position.

All coaches certainly want to give trophies to the teams they coach, including Klopp and Arteta at this time, Klopp, who will part ways with Liverpool at the end of the season, of course hopes to get a sweet farewell gift in the form of a Premier League or Europa League trophy, but unfortunately their chances of winning the trophy began to be difficult after Manchester City took the top of the current Premier League standings,  While in Europe of course it was quite painful because the first leg they had to lose from Atlanta with an aggregate score of 3 goals, two consecutive defeats made two chances of winning the top 2 competitions begin to thin for Liverpool at this time.

Not much different from Liverpool, Arteta also certainly wants to be the first coach for Arsenal who is able to give them the championship trophy after more than 20 years of fasting for titles, but indeed this week is a bad week for Arsenal and Liverpool because they have to get out of the championship path, Manchester City will certainly go strong enough because there seems to be no team that prevents Pep Guardiola from presenting the 4th Premier League title this season in a row for manchester city.

Still they can't just let the others get past them right?    Even though Arsenal squad is very young this dedication is still incredible. They just don't have it in themselves to maintain that great performance until the end of the season. I would really like to see them proving me wrong in the remaining part by not giving up on the title until the end.

Arteta has already proven his quality without doubt. He has been doing the best he can with this team full of really talented players. He has one more year on his current contract and I expect to see him next season as well at least. After that nobody knows for certain what happens...

Even If Arsenal win the Premier League this season, I dont think Arteta considered to be as special as Xabi.
Xabi became Leverkusen coach at the end of 2022 and he succeeded in saving Leverkusen from relegation.
In this season he able to win the first-ever Bundesliga title for Leverkusen + a big chance of winning the Europa League and DFB Pokal.
While Arteta has been the Arsenal manager since the end of 2019 and during his 5 years at Arsenal he was only able to win the FA Cup once and the FA Community Shield once.

I think Man City actually has the biggest chance because their toughest opponent is only Tottenham Hotspur. While Liverpool still has to play against Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, and the one with the least chance is Arsenal because they still have to play against Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Man United. On paper, Man City does have the best chance because if in their remaining matches, the three teams can win all the matches, then it is certain that Man City will win the trophy. But as long as this season isn't over, anything can still happen and as we know, the Premier League this season is full of surprises.

I think Klopp and Arteta both have the motivation to win the EPL. Klopp will leave Liverpool, at least he said he would take a break as coach. Arteta has the motivation to give Arsenal a title after a long time. Of course, it is a proud achievement for Arteta to give Arsenal the EPL title after a long time. But the problem is that City has the biggest chance of winning the EPL this season. After Arsenal's surprise loss to Aston Villa, I think looking at City's games ahead only Tottenham will probably give them a draw but their chances are not that good. City have dominated this season and yes, no one seems to doubt they will win the EPL again this season.
