The result of Arsenal's game against Tottenham Hotspur today further proves that the Gunners are serious with their quest to win the English Premier League this season. After facing a big English Premier League club like Chelsea last week, I wasn't expecting Arsenal to still dominate their game at Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon but Mikel Arteta's men were fully ready to win the game and grab all three points from the game. I love the way the team is united to achieve their purpose and if they can remain focused like they are currently, there's every chance that they might ebd their 20 years wait to win the English Premier League title.

In the other important game of the day involving the Manchester City, Pep Guardiola's men dispatched their hosts to claim all three points in that game at Nottingham Forest. The last match weeks of the English Premier League will be very interesting I think

Arsenal doesn’t have any option but winning this match, it is one of the difficult clashes for them among the remaining matches in Premier League to keep their chances for the leadership. They are now temporarily the leaders in standings with Manchester City late match, the difference is only two points, Manchester City also won their game today to keep always the gap of 2 points if they managed to win all the 4 matches remaining.
In my opinion, Manchester City will play all the cards against Tottenham playing away, this is the most difficult match for them and if they managed to win it we can say 99% the trophy is for them. Arsenal also will keep winning and wait for any mistakes from City.

2-0 as for now. The game is almost end and city leads the game against forest. I strongly believe city is still having guts to win EPL title this season. Arsenal was performing quite well against totenham but it would be finish if arsenal was losing against totenham. The mistake by raya and penalty for totenham have been helping the lily white to scored two goals.
Considering it's away game and it's a very bad result for totenham. Im still wondering when ange will learn from his mistake. He is always still using the same strategy even though their opponents have known it so well.
The way totenham playing was not convincing me to be honest. City is winning the game against forest. Forest may be going to the relegation zone as soon as possible.

Tottenham is a strong team, it was a very important match for Arsenal. If they had lost points here, they would have had serious problems, but they managed to win 3 points at the end of the match. Their opponents are not very strong in the next matches. If there is no surprise, it means they are very close to the championship

Winning with a score of 3-0 in the first half certainly made Arsenal have high motivation in playing in the second half, but Raya mistake made Arsenal players have to miss the opportunity to end the game with a cleanshet, what Raya do in the game was really very stupid and almost made Arsenal have to lose 3 points today,  Because indeed Tottenham Hotspur's game began to improve after they managed to reduce the score to 3-1, to be honest when the score of the game became 3-2, I saw that Arsenal players began to panic and even they were very depressed every time Tottenham made an attack, besides the increasing intensity of attacks made by Tottenham players before the game ended of course almost made Arsenal lose 3 points in the match.

Today Manchester City is playing a match week 34 and currently Manchester City is 2-0 ahead of Nottingham Forest with the match almost entering the final minute so most likely Manchester City can still maintain second position with a difference of 1 point from Arsenal and also benefit from one game less than from Arsenal, for this season it seems that Arsenal's chances of winning the Premier League are of course very small if Manchester does not dropped points in their remaining match this season.

Arsenal delivered big time. Tottenham was the highest-placed team in the table that they still had to play this season, but they did not disappoint. Looking at the score itself could create a picture that it was a close game, but it really wasn't. The Gunners took a comfy, early 3-0 lead and they let Tottenham take control of the game. Arsenal's defence got overly relaxed and just gave those two goals away (stupid mistake by the goalkeeper and unnecessary penalty).
But Man City is not going to give the title away, they're currently leading 1-0 against Notm Forrest at halftime.

I have been quite silent related to how good or bad of a manager Arne Slot will be next season, and to be fair I think we still don't know anything about that situation, it is a totally unknown situation.

However, if we are going to end up talking about how it works, we could say that spending 9.4 million euro on him makes no sense at all. This dude is not some super manager that won UCL last season, this dude is just Feyenoord manager and spending that much on him makes no sense to me. Even if he does well enough, not like he will win them UCL, and managers do not cost this much. And not like this is the end of it, we are going to see Arne Slot get a fee too, so all in all this would cost nearly 15 million for them which is way too high for a manager at that size.

It was a really exciting match! I mean Arsenal were already 3-0 up in the first half. They will definitely win the match. But then Tottehham scored 2 goals in the second half. It really got my adrenaline pumping. If Tottenham manages to score 1 more goal and the match will end in a draw. City can already declare their Premier League title this season because they no longer have difficult opponents except Tottenham. With a 4 point lead, it is absolutely impossible for Arsenal to catch City. But Arsenal were lucky to win tonight and the competition for the title will continue.

As usual, London derbies are interesting ASF. David Raya did giveaway for Tottenham Hotspur, as it was that goal that gave them Tottenham Hotspur some levels of confidence to jump back into that game.
I didn't see the first half but did with the second half, they managed the game properly ad try both attacked and defended with caution. I was already getting this vibes of 3--3 against Southampton from last season already but they kept them head cool in the game and won.

The penalty was worth it even if Declan Rice didn't do that intentional.

All games in the Premier League Competition are tougher than expected, next up would be Bournemouth, and then Manchester United which will also be a hard nut ti crack at Old Trafford.
Manchester City also have them battles to face, love the way they're taking these games one step at a time. I would love Arsenal to win the Premier League with goals scored because sitting at the top could finally come difficult.

There are still several matches that might make things difficult for them apart from Tottenham, I also think Arsenal shouldn't get lost in the fun for too long because their point difference is not too far ahead of Manchester City so they still have a lot of work to do, especially if Manchester City wipes out the rest. A match with consecutive wins will prevent Arsenal from winning the EPL this season, but Arsenal seems to be still trying to get a winning streak in the hope that Manchester City will experience defeat.

If Manchester City suffers a defeat or draw from their last remaining match of course it will prevent them from winning the EPL title this season, the competition is very tight at the end of this season against Nottinghem forest. Currently Manchester City is still a draw, I think all the eyes of Arsenal supporters hope that Manchester city is having difficulty getting the full three points in this match considering that Arsenal have already got the full three points after beating Tottenham today, clearly they are just waiting for Manchester city to stumble in a few matches and it is Arteta's hope to be able to win the EPL this season with Arsenal after experiencing failure previously.

Actually, what I see at the moment that Chelsea has no shortage of players and has even spent lot of money to get several players before.
Strangely, even though they have quality players, Chelsea still has performance that not that great, even replacing the coach several times has not made any changes.
Sometimes I wonder what the problem with Chelsea that this season has not had any improvement and whether really hasn't got the right coach to be able to make change.
So it's not just about experienced players that is the problem that Chelsea is facing at the moment, but perhaps they also need to get a more experienced coach.

If Arsenal have been playing this well, their supporters wouldn't have needed to pray for them to win the league. Maybe they were hoping to win the champions league that was why they made those mistakes that put them in the position they are now. As it becomes obvious that their champions league dream will not come to pass, I have notice serious change in them especially as it has to do with winning mentality. They have dramatically improved their playing, scoring and defending and any mistake from Man City will just give them the advantage they need to win the trophy.

What they played against Tottenham today is an indication that they will easily win Man Utd. I was thinking that Tottenham will be a hard match to win but from first half they dominated Tottenham and still scored three goals straight. I don't actually like how they relaxed in second half, an action that almost allowed Tottenham to score them three goals and make the match a draw.

Arsenal played a really critical game against Tottenham today and it was really delightful.    They seemed to have finished the game in the first half already by getting 3-0 ahead. But Tottenham made the game more interesting in the second half. Still a 2-1 win for Arsenal at the end which is a critical win in the title competition.

I saw this as the toughest matchup for Arsenal among their remaining fixtures. There is an away game at Old Trafford as well though. Manchester United beat them there the last time. I hope Arsenal don't fail in getting over this obstacle after this win. Otherwise Manchester City would announce the title.  

Too many people here gave Jackson flowers early enough, but do you see how he's performed? Most at times I want to blame Mauricio Pochetino though, he is not that man to spark this club back up is he?
Aston Villa though disappointed me on God. What I expected was a three to nil goal win in this game but they couldn't manage the game properly.
Cole Palmer had a last minute chance to bury the game but the efforts of Aston Villa second choice saved the day.

First they have a bad defense, and Virgil Van Dirk shouldn't be overlooked. He should be axed because he is no more that defender for Liverpool.... They overlook him amd he will cause more trouble for them behind.
They shouldn't repeat mistakes done by Manchester United when Sir Alex Ferguson retired otherwise, lol they'll learn the hard way.

Chelsea's team is terrible to watch. Chelsea's gameplay always pisses me off. It's so pathetic this club. How are people still interested in watching this terrible club. The better for pochettino to analyze the problem on his club even deeper to do some optimization to the performances from his club.
The players performances are horrible to watch. It's a joke of a team. This team gotta be kidding me with all horrific performances showed regularly by chelsea. The blues is shit now. It's hard to accept it but this is the truth.


The winner will be between arsenal or manchester city. that's it.

This Chelsea squad is really a very young squad as in the most of their matches this season the average age of their squad is between 22-23 years. This alone shows how young and meek this squad is and what they need is proper grooming and sincerely Pochettino isn’t lacking in that.
 
 ⁠He’s got a good one in his ability to manage players and you can see that in the attitude of the boys up the pitch, how they maintain their position and respect each other’s opinion. I think the team has one major issue which is that voiceable leader who has enough experience in senior team football to be able to dictate the game to them.

 ⁠In the match against Villa though they started poorly but I think they grew momentum and controlled the game right from the 40th minute till the end. This grown momentun helped them to be able to bounce back into the game and get the draw even though they also got a last gasp winner buh was chopped off by VAR.

 ⁠I think this Chelsea team has a lot of prospect and just one or two major additions with enough senior team experience will be able to do the wonder for this Chelsea side. Let the fans not lose hope rather, they should hope the board sees this and makes the right move and trust me sooner or later this Chelsea side will grow to that fierce side.

It is nice to see Leicester back in the Premier League.    However I also think the same. Another relegation battle might be likely to be seen. The teams that promoted this season are likely to go down together in the same season. They are the least valuable teams in the Premier League at the same time.

Leicester had better make big improvements for the squad and focus on keeping the best performers such as Dewsbury-Hall in the team. Teams that promote to the Premier League are rewarded with a great deal of money but using it in a smart way is the most important point.

Chelsea again is the worse team ever and I don't know who to blame other than the coach and that big head Jackson, star the lss he cost the team against man City at FA Cup, he also missed chances against Aston villa yesterday, it was a boring and horrible match to watch. I hate seeing my team not doing well.

Liverpool has Los their chance at winning the league and that slot goes to man City and arsenal that has both been driven home from champions league to face their final battle at Premier league, can arsenal beat City at this?

The chances are huge their points gap with Luton is very small, and they will play Man City today. The probability of winning is quite difficult. For the other Liverpool draw, Arsenal will play Tottenham and Man City against Nottingham Forest. Arsenal and Man City are the same, they will go to the opponent's house. But from the 2 opposing teams, it seems that Arsenal has a stronger opponent. For Man City they should be able to get 3 points. Current conditions also support Man City, they have 1 game less. There are still about 4-5 games. It seems that the opportunities of Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool are still very open. I feel that this season's EPL champion will be decided in the last match of the 3 teams.

That game between wolves and Luton Town ended in with a score of 2:1 in favor of wolves, and if you ask me, I would say that that match ended just the way I personally thought it should, so, nothing to be surprised about.
Luton town is not such a strong club afterall, they are defeated in all almost all their games, and there is possibly no way they would have beat wolves who are currently sitting in the 10th position in the epl table, when they themselves are in the 18th place - please don't get me wrong, I am not saying it's not possible but them(Luton Town) beating wolves in their encounter yesterday would have been a shock and surprise to many, but all the same, it's still football, outside of luck, it's always the best club that plays the best game that ends up winning.

And outside of the above, Arsenal will be playing against Tottenham today, what do you guys think will be the outcome of this game? Will Arsenal continue in their winning streaks? Or will Tottenham somehow find a way to break this winning streak from Arsenal?
This is definitely going to be a very interesting game to watch, but I pray Arsenal will pull through, they are already at the verge of winning the premiere league title this season, it would be a very big disappointment to lose or draw any game at this moment.
