Yes. Liverpool are indeed unstoppable even though when they played against Tottenham they had a goal party and it was done at the opponent's home, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. So this victory makes Liverpool even stronger at the top of the standings with 39 points. Yes, even Mo Salah has scored 18 goals and 14 assists in all competitions for Liverpool, this is extraordinary. Liverpool did show a surprising game, even though at the beginning of the season there were doubts because the coach was new and not many players had been brought in. If Liverpool manages to win the EPL title, it will certainly be a special debut for Arne Slot.

At the moment Liverpool seem invincible and they have been coming up with great results week in week out which is why they are at the top of the table. Against Tottenham Hotspur they played an extraordinary game which they won with a nine goal thriller which extended their lead, though a lot of people have attributed Liverpool's dominance to Manchester city's sudden decline and they think Liverpool wouldn't have been where they are at the moment if Manchester city were playing well but it would only take some time before we know if Liverpool will continue to dominate or be displaced by another team.

It is indeed very obvious that Mohammad salah is a special kind of player and Liverpool actually discovered the secret power he possesses and that is why they decided to give him all he wants and made him the soul king of the red. Mo Salah is one of the players that have had amazing seasons in Liverpool. This guy has been in his prime for quiet a lot seasons and he is still delivering good football.

Another man I so much respect in Liverpool currently is Arne Slot. I actually thought that this man would at least have some weak seasons as a newcomer in the club before he will discover his way to succeed. But I was so surprised to see him start succeeding almost immediately in the club. I'm happy that finally Guardiola and his boys won't be winning this time.

I don't see any team presently that is capable of challenging Liverpool to this season's English premier league title. Chelsea are the closest team chasing Liverpool in second place on the table standings but I don't think they will be able to win the league. I think Enzo Maresca main focus now is building a team capable of competing for trophies in the future.

The league I very much open as at this time and Liverpool haven't had a safe landing yet, If Chelsea can continue with this pace they can still overtake Liverpool from behind, Arsenal too is capable of doing that ,there will be a particular point in the league table one would begin to reason of this ,so right now, no doubt Liverpool is quite outstanding in their performances but to say you don't see any team capable of challenging them is where I don't totally agree with you.

Chelsea’s draw over the course of the weekend was a very disappointing one I must say. I didn’t expect them to settle for a draw against Everton. I know for sure that Pickford isn’t that any easy goalkeeper to beat and Chelsea played there best to try and get all 3points in that game but somehow could seal it and that was so unexpected.

At the money, the league is very much up to Chelsea and Liverpool which is why, losing points over the weekend isn’t something Chelsea should have settled for. Liverpool went ahead to beat Spurs in a 3:6 Liverpool victory, increasing there goal difference as well and they aren’t going to stop, going forward from the way I see it.

You’re right and this statement you made is similar to one I told someone once, I don’t think Enzo Maresca is actually Aiming for the title but they are still the only team capable of challenging Liverpool this season, even if they are not ready I think Liverpool needs to be careful and not drop points too much else Chelsea might surprise them. It’s not impossible for Chelsea to win the league because we are just about to hit the middle of the season and it’s still a long way to the end, they might not be challenging for the title but being focused on winning matches and picking 3 points could win them the league if Liverpool fumbles.
Arsenal are also in the race, they might be a little bit far but they are also in the title race and cannot be over looked even though Chelsea and Liverpool are the real contenders for now.

it's not the fault of the Manchester United coach that things are not working at the club at the moment, actually nothing is bound to work at Manchester united until the team is properly fixed and I thing the coach has emphasized that during one of his interviews with press, he also emphasized the absence of the right players in the squad which is one of the reasons the team is underperforming and a possible transformation of the entire squad if not an overhaul, so I see no reasons why anyone should blame Amorim for the poor performance of this Manchester united side for now, he should be given enough time just as the previous coaches.

Sometime the coach also contributes because the success of a club lies in how it is been managed if it is properly managed they it will succeed for sure and look at Chelsea they have sacked how many coaches now and they have been getting it right so if Manchester United want to get it right they must be ready to get a better coach that will be able to give the club a good management and ten was not doing a great job and I actually support is sack because the club was not yielding any profit at all so ot is better he goes to another club to use is strategy but as for Manchester United they deserve another. The coach might be making the right comment of not having sufficient players and if they can make provision for that and the performance does not improve then there is going to be enough problems, and the coach needs serious selection of players so as to make the club perform better.

One guy was confronting me because I said Amorim is a good coach and the failure of the players has nothing to do with him, it's the fault of the players though he is going to take full responsibility of those players because he is their leader and he is the one representing the club and the team. If there is no change among the players, there is nothing good that will come about the team and not necessary sell them, there should be some to be reserved and some that has to start.

There are some miscreant fan base that are trying to create FUD between Amorim, Rashford and the management because he decided to bench him in some of their games and the team hasn't been able to win any game, loss at home and they want to see the best of him. I don't think he will be able to know his own potential unless he tried every combination to be able to crack that code to win, the existing formation was formed by ETH, he need to master his own boys.

At the very least, if Amorim doesn't make the expected improvements over the course of a season or two, then it's very likely that Amorim will end up being sacked as well as previous coaches.

Manchester United is really in a big mess, and Amorim didn’t meet the team in a good way, so all I will say is that Amorim needs to be given time, we don’t just expect him to fix everything within a short period of time, it’s going to be a gradual process, because even if Amorim will be signing new players, we don’t expect him to sign all players at once, so Amorim should be given enough time.

I have seen some Manchester United fans that are already complaining about him, that he should stick to the pattern that Ruud van Nistelrooy was using, that the players are not used to the current pattern that Amorim is playing, which is a wrong idea. The coach will be staying in the club for a long time, so we expect him to play the pattern that he knows best and not have to copy other people.

It’s just too early to start complaining, let’s just allow the coach to do what he knows best, and we shouldn’t expect instant changes in Manchester United’s performance, but with time, things will be better.

Whatever Amorim is doing to Man United, it's not working out. But, in his defence, he has to play with what he inherited after Ten Hag. He probably will be allowed to do some shopping in the winter transfer window, but if there's no visible improvement after that, he might be in trouble.

Although, I personally can still admit that Amorim is not bad at all sofar, because Amorim has not really fully formed a team with his selected players. Thus, Amorim still needs more time to really be able to make Manchester United have good dominance in the Premier League. It is difficult, but if I think that Amorim is a great hope because of his success at Sporting, then at least Amorim can also make Manchester United get some trophies.

This result is surprising, even they did not show as a winning team against Man City. Indeed, in the match Bournemouth was more effective. Man United was too nervous and destroyed because they conceded first. In fact, they are even more destroyed and make the players' mentality worse. This condition made Amorim dizzy and there were many rumors that he would ask for funds for a big fight. There are rumors that Amorim wants Osimhen when he is with Galatasaray on loan, then there are Ronald Araujo and Tyler Dibling. They still have 2 games against Wolves and Newcastle United.

To be fair, United and Osimhen rumour has been broken, I have seen it on witter where it's said that this is a wrong and fake news, just to increase the value of Osimhen and get him wanted. Osimhen is not even working with his agent anymore, he is literally working with his lawyer alone, nobody else. This is why these fake news are spread by probably Napoli to get rid of him, like try to make it look like fans do want it. If enough United fans see this news and go crazy about it, then they think United will not have any choice but to go for it.

Osimhen is not against going to United I am sure, and I am sure United is not against getting Osimhen if they can neither, both of those are quite possible and they both would want each other, I am not saying this can't happen, I am just saying that there aren't any talks so far, this doesn't mean there won't be one, it just means that the news we have seen so far is fake, but eventually it could turn out to be true.

Impressive performance by Liverpool. Mo Salah is now the sole leader of the top Premier League scorers with 15 goals to his name, overtaking Man City's Haaland, who hasn't improved his 13-goal count in a while.
If Liverpool doesn't hit any longer period of season fatigue and underperformance, they're on the best way to win the league. And that would be a great debut for Arne Slot.

Manchester United are in transition and it will take time for Ruben Amorim to be able to build a team of his choice. We have seen flashes of brilliance from Ruben Amorim since his arrival at Manchester United, he has changed the atmosphere at the club. I think with time, Amorim will be able to get Manchester United back on track again.

It is true that Mo Salah has been the most standout player presently in the EPL as he tops the standing with goals scored and also assists too, with 15goals scored and 11 assists. As they are poised to become the winner of this season's English Premier League. And I am sure even with injuries they will still win the title as other teams seems to have given up on the title pursuit.

Liverpool will host Leicester in their next match, next against West Ham at the London Olympic Stadium. Both matches will be played during the remainder of December and there is a possibility of losing points to Liverpool. I'm not underestimating Leicester and West Ham in any way, for me it's the best way to not drop points for the rest of the year.

And the next 2 matches that will be played by Liverpool have the opportunity to continue to get 3 full points. There is nothing to worry about The Red this season, Arne Slot and his troops are at the peak of their ideal performance so that any club in the EPL or the Champions League will have difficulty stopping Liverpool. Leicester City and Westham can still provide resistance but there is no guarantee they can steal 3 points.

Playing with Leicester City in their next game seems to be an easy ride for Liverpool. Leicester have been struggling this season even when it looks like the signing is Ruud van Nistelrooy will change their fortune for good. West Ham has not lost any match in three games and might put up a good fight against Liverpool. But just like some games turn out with unexpected results, these underrated teams could sometimes be difficult to beat. They can decide to play defensively and frustrate every attempt of Liverpool to get a goal. If Liverpool can beat these two teams, they will be on track to win the Premiership since Chelsea dropped two points recently.

Well, I'll agree to that because they're the most inform team in the league and got far more better players compared to Leicester City and I believe they'll want to maintain that form with a victory in that match so as not to close the gap on the table, if you take a look a the odds given by several bookmakers you'll see that they're the favourites and so far Salah is involved in the match, they'll definitely win it. However Leicester City just recently came from the Championship league, they know how tough it is to go back their, that alone would motivate them to struggle hard for a point in that match, though it would be very difficult at Liverpool's, we'll let's see how Ruud Van Nistelroy would turn things around, Liverpool has been his core rivals during his playing days maybe he could channel that rivalry in this match and motivate his players but it's going to be a tough task since they'll be going to Anfield.

The victory over tottenham has also extended their unbeaten run of 22 matches in all competitions at the moment, so this shows mentality and also their extraordinary ability this season to cope with any pressure that exists, just like you, when Liverpool managed to destroy big teams like tottenham, madrid, manchester city and chelsea, of course facing leicester city and westham who are slumping at the moment is not something difficult for them, I am also quite confident that Liverpool will be able to get full points in the remaining two match in first half of the season, before they face another busy schedule in the second half of this season later.

The odds for all the games of round 18 (26th and 27th Dec), by Duelbits, are as follows:

Is anyone else tempted to place a smallish bet on a draw on Man City vs. Everton? Or do we think Everton is so weak that Man City in crisis can still easily defeat them?
Statistically speaking, Everton has the highest draw rate in the league (44%) and, in their last two games, they stole some points from Chelsea and Arsenal, both games ended in goalless draws.

Interesting matches to watch out for in the boxing day fixtures I must confess that all the matches are hard to predict and all the teams looks good going into the mid-week fixtures but one game that is of interest to me is the Chelsea vs Fulham game, Fulham is another team that has surprised a lot of people as their performance has been great they have been pulling out results from both home and away and going into this match against Chelsea they look like they can cause another upset.
Chelsea should be very very careful with this game and not under rate this Fulham team that has been impressive Chelsea should take this game at home with all kind of seriousness because if there is one team that is in form in then league Fulham is that club
