The premier league table is shaping up to  something we'd all remember. Liverpool on top of the table and man city winning their next 10 games and getting on top of the table. I do hope that it's not the case this time as Liverpool and Arsenal struggle really well at several matches this season. That Arsenal and Tottenham were absolute shockers but it's a good move considering Liverpool the opportunity to earn more points and increase at the gap at the top of the table.

Something like the Covid-19 (2019/2030) season.
The first 19 match weeks in the English Premier League have been played which also marks the end of the first half of the season and from every visible evidence, I don't Manchester City are gonna do what they did last season by coming from behind to defeat the rest of the teams in their the last 19 games of the season. Manchester City might not be at the top of the league table but have been impressive and recently won the FIFA club world cup but considering the performance of other big teams in the league especially Liverpool, it'll be very difficult for them to go past everyone and return at the submit of the table.
Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur's defeat yesterday was surprising to many including myself and I hope the two teams bounces back to winning ways and continue their fight for the league title

Yesterday Brighton vs Tottenham in the Premier League Brighton team won by 4 goals in the match between two teams. The first goal was scored by J. Hinshelwood in the 11th minute. J.  Pedro scored the 2nd goal in the 23rd minute.P.  Estupiñán scored the 3rd goal at 63 minutes.J.  Pedro scored the 4th goal in 75 minutes. But on the other hand, Tottenham scored 2 goals. A.  Véliz scored the 1st goal in the 81st minute.B.  Davies scored the 2nd goal on 85 minutes.
I believe that we are going to end up with Tottenham getting worse and worse by time. I have to say that Brighton is a great team with amazing young talent, you should check their roster out, they have so many players that worth a lot and they are going to get only better and better. I feel like we are going to end up with something that means something for them, it will be important to get these type of three points for the future as well.

Tottenham on the other hand started amazing, that doesn't mean that they would stay that good and we have seen them drop a lot and they will probably keep getting worse. It wasn't really sane to think that they would lose Kane and then get better, it was about time to see their drop.

The EPL league always brings unexpected surprises even though Tottenham really need three points to stay in the top four, but they ended up wasting points in this match. On the other hand, Brighton always gives painful things to the team. -The big team in this match they performed very perfectly. But indeed Tottenham with 8 injured players, and 3 more players in January Son, Sar, Bissouma had to be absent because he was playing for the national team in the Asian and African Cups. Of course, Tottenham will find it difficult to compete in the big four.

So in conclusion, with Spurs and Arsenal losing, things are easier for Man City to catch up on points with Liverpool. Man City will face the bottom team, namely Sheffield United, of course Man City will not waste this opportunity to reduce the points gap with Liverpool.
It's true, things haven't been easy for Tottenham and Arsenal after losing their last match. Arsenal's failure to win meant they failed to lead the standings and this also put Liverpool at the top. Tottenham have ultimately suffered a dip in form even though they did something very convincing at the start of the season. Everything changed so quickly for them and so far Tottenham have struggled to return to their top performance.

The poor results experienced by Arsenal and Tottenham provide a good opportunity for Manchester City and Aston Villa to provide tough competition. This is the advantage of the Premier League compared to other leagues in Europe, competition between teams in the race for the title is very tight.

Tottenham were really horrible against Brighton! I mean especially the first half performances. Tottenham were really desperate against Brighton then. Brighton had so many goal chances in the first half. Tottenham started to attack more in the second half maybe but still they were clueless about how to stop Brighton offense.  Sad

Mitoma's absence didn't affect Brighton badly at all. They scored 4 goals in this game which is a new goal record against Tottenham in Brighton history.

In fact Vicario is a really good goalkeeper but he was also desperate in this game. Especially Estupinan's goal was a masterpiece.  Grin
The fact that everyone has the potential to beat each other shows us once again how difficult and high quality the English premier league is. You absolutely had to watch 90 minutes of this match, it was a perfect match, perfect. Even though it looked like 4-2, it could have been 4-4 in the last minutes. But also Brighton could have scored more too. Vicario saved a lot of goals. Although they conceded 4 goals, I like Tottenham's goalkeeper quite a lot. As a team, Tottenham is indeed terrible sometimes. I expect surprise results from their games usually.

In fact, I have already said what I will say in another thread that actually those who are at the top of points table or in the top 3 have performances that are not worthy or I mean Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa are not yet strong enough to be leaders of the Premier League and Look at how Aston villa was beaten by Manchester United and Asenal was beaten West Ham.
From the conclusion above, we can estimate that to be able to maintain a position in first place in points table, you must have very high consistency.
football is not some sort of a perfectly placed activity, Teams experience good and bad times, these teams you've mentioned above have had periods they played really well and were applauded by everyone, it's quite unfortunate that they lost form slightly this past week and lost matches, but that is not enough reason to look down on them. Sometimes these players suffer from fatigue or injuries and it affects their team play for some time, when there are good players on the bench, their inefficiencies are effectively compensated. In the case of Aston villa, they over relaxed and it cost them the game, but not withstanding, learning is everyday and I believe these teams have spotted their weaknesses and will work on it to give us a better and expected performance on their next campaign.

Arsenal and aston villa got the bad results this week. It gives city a chance to be even closer to those two teams. Despite the relentless bombardment from Arsenal, Westham has managed to maintain a high level of consistency in their performances. However, they showed resilience and managed to bounce back after coming dangerously close to conceding goals against Arsenal. I was watching the match, and it was amazing westham with less than 30% ball possessions were able making three goals attempts and 2 goals to won aganist arsenal.
What's the problem here? It must be on arsenal caused by the club was missing many opportunties. It's started with saka's heading, which was very less powerful and his shoot was hitting the bar. Im feeling so bad for all of bettors who pick arsenal.

Westham is truly showing its level in this match. It was using the big wall to protect the goal keeper but it must be noted that if the goal keeper of westham has blocked so many chances by arsenal as well.
Why didn't arsenal targeting him instead of raya? In order to improve their team, Arsenal can initiate the process of kicking Ramsdale and swiftly commence efforts to recruit Westham's goal keeper. It's amazing to see how westham goal keeprs made so many brilliant save.
The week's fixtures weren't favourable for Villa and Arsenal, the two teams had to embrace a loss which was really unexpected, although for Arsenal they had the bigger share of loss as they weren't even able to net a goal adding that they were the host side but still they incurred 2goals from West Ham. The outcome affected their position on the league standings tho. Now their spot is very much threatened.

 For Villa, they played visitors to United, they were able to keep the pressure high but had to face a sad comeback which in turn led to their loss. Their spot is also threatened and these two teams have to strive to maintain their standings on the table too so as not to drop down ruining their European cup tickets too. For Arsenal they need to try as much as possible to make sure the experience they had last season in bottling the league does not repeat again.

I don't care the kind of form West Ham is in this is a match Arsenal should have won. They messed up by losing this match to West Ham. They were at home and they had the advantage. Is West in a better form than Arsenal?
This is just what Arsenal do, they always bottle their opportunities. They were supposed to win the league the year Leicester won it, they were supposed to win the league last season but they messed up and allowed Man City win it, now they've lost and giving either Liverpool or Manchester City a chance to win the league again.
Now Manchester City has an outstanding match, if they win that match they'll be second and top Arsenal with goals.
There have been clear signs of progress for Arsenal this season, but the 2-0 loss to West Ham raised familiar questions. Not only Man City but also Liverpool are ready to compete for the Premier League championship this season. Man City is only 3 points behind and has played 1 match less. Arsenal appeared to need more composure of a championship team. The organization of the defense had apparent problems in the first goal. More significantly, before conceding, Arsenal wasted a series of opportunities. The addition of personnel is necessary for Arsenal to avoid going into the "trail" of last season when allowing Manchester City to overturn the odds and lose the Premier League championship. Mikel Arteta needs to have urgent solutions. If there are no additions soon, going down the same path as last season is entirely possible. They need a central striker. Arsenal must win another derby with Fulham to consolidate their position.

From the conclusion above, we can estimate that to be able to maintain a position in first place in points table, you must have very high consistency.
Meanwhile, we have to know that Manchester City will get back its mainstay player after going through a period of injury. Haaland is likely to appear again with Manchester City in the next match.
The most important thing for me is that several clubs above Manchester City will only be temporary if MC improves its performance again and will definitely move back to these 3 clubs and dominate the Premier League again.

I also think that way. Jesus, Saka and Martinelli really underperformed that night. I mean 30 shots with 8 shots on target and none of them were goals? Is it because West Ham's defense is very solid or does Arsenal really need a finisher in this transfer market? I remember when Giroud played at Arsenal where he was a good player who was good at finding positions but had very poor finishing in front of goal.

As far as I know Arsenal are already looking for a striker seriously. Because I have seen some transfer speculations related to them for the centre-forward position. Maybe Guirassy is also a target for them as he has a release clause which can be activated in January. But there will surely be some other big teams going after him as well. Guirassy is a really great talent with the performance level he has shown so far. He can be a useful player for Arsenal as he isn't an old player either.

But in this case I wonder whether Arsenal would think of parting their ways with Nketiah or Gabriel Jesus.  Huh

Arsenal couldn't give their best at their home ground. They missed a few opportunities. Firstly they could reach above the currently leading team Liverpool if they win the match. But that opportunity was missed. Tomas Sosek's goal in the first half was controversial, while in the second half they couldn't stop West Ham. former Arsenal player Konstantinos Mavropanos make goal from a corner and lead to West Ham ahead. But the fact is that Arsenal controlled the ball throughout the match but did not score. And since they did not score, naturally the strikers have to take this responsibility. They need good strikers in their team.

Currently the condition of Arsenal team is very sad because their performance is so bad that they lack strikers. Without suitable and experienced strikers in the team, the attacking department cannot attack properly. Arsenal's goals against West Ham United showed that Arsenal were better in attack but could never succeed due to a lack of strikers. So even though Arsenal are a rich club, they currently lack strikers, so I think they need an experienced striker soon.

Tottenham Hotspur who were once at the top of the English Premier League table before they went on a losing streak are trying to find their way back to the top four of the league table and would definitely want to win the game tonight but a shock from Brighton is still very much possible

And surprisingly Tottenham lost 2-4 to Brighton. This is a bad result because they should be able to improve their ranking ranking in four standings. But this week many surprises occurred like the defeat of Aston Villa from Manchester United and even the defeat of Arsenal to West Ham. This week is really bad for some big teams but then this makes the competition get the title more competitive to watch.

Arsenal vs West Ham's defeat was truly unfortunate, this should have been an opportunity for Arsenal to get 3 points because they were playing at home, but they failed to do this, because several times their attacks did not produce results in scoring goals against West Ham. With the final result being 0-2 won by West Ham, this defeat was very detrimental to Arsenal, because they are 2 points behind Liverpool and will not be able to shift Liverpool's position at the top of the standings this season. In the next match Liverpool will face Newcastle, and Arsenal will face Fullham. Liverpool will definitely fight even harder to win this match in order to maintain their top position in the standings. Maybe Arsenal will also continue to play aggressively to win matches and will chase points to remain competitive with Liverpool. Let's see who will win the Premier League this season.

Arsenal will face Westham United today in the North London Derby. Arsenal
They have won 12 of their last 13 Premier League matches against West Ham. Its only loss was in the opening week of the 2015/2016 season (0-2).
This year, Arsenal is in great form and is the biggest candidate for the championship this year. In the years when Arsenal lost the championship, they continued to be the leader until the last weeks, but no matter what was happening, the championship was slipping away from their hands in the last weeks. They are better this year and if there are no injury problems, the biggest championship candidate is Arsenal. Arsenal will be the winner in North London today. I expect a win with at least 3 goals.

If there was a losers club, I'd be the president. In this article, I wrote about the last time Arsenal lost to Westham United, the score, and stated that I expected a goal-scoring victory from Arsenal. Arsenal's 0-2 defeat reminded everyone of that day. 90+6. Westham missed the penalty in this minute. History repeated itself when the penalty was missed. 😔
Westham United team is also in good form and is not a team to be taken lightly, but the strongest candidate for the championship, like Arsenal, should have had the worst draw at home. Realizing the philosophy of if you can't beat, you lose. With Arsenal's defeat, Liverpool became the new leader of the Premier League. In the other match of the night, Brighton defeated Tottenham 4-2 at home.
Brighton is the most remarkable team in the Premier League this year. They continue their way in Europe as well.

I agree that West Ham is in great shape as they don't lose patience. Seriously, in this game it was all about resisting and giving Arsenal a hard time to get closer to the box in a good position. Arsenal had so many chances, but hardly any of those chances were huge. That's what West Ham made sure to protect themselves from conceding quick and easy goals. Of course at the end of the day there was also some luck involved. Otherwise you can't win a game that is essentially a game with only one direction. But really if that penalty was scored, what a tough total would that have been? 0-3? Wow, but doesn't matter. West Ham is on a good run!

Arsenal's only memorable position was Bukayo Sako's return from the post, other than that it was ineffective. Arsenal was the side that played with the ball more, but they could not turn this situation into an advantage.
Why doesn't a rich club like Arsenal find a very quality striker? I have always wondered about this situation for years. If Jesus had been a very good striker, he would have done very well in Chelsea before, but that was not the case.
He contributed in the Champions League, but so far he is playing in the Premier League with 3 goals and 1 assist. I don't think this performance is enough to make Arsenal champions.

Currently the condition of Arsenal team is very sad because their performance is so bad that they lack strikers. Without suitable and experienced strikers in the team, the attacking department cannot attack properly. Arsenal's goals against West Ham United showed that Arsenal were better in attack but could never succeed due to a lack of strikers. So even though Arsenal are a rich club, they currently lack strikers, so I think they need an experienced striker soon.
