Very true, he is certainly one of the best performing manager in the English premier league at it stands, to be honest here, I was one of the critique of his acquisition during the summer, but he have not just proven to be the right candidate but the best candidate for the job, and am quite happy that he has gotten Chelsea football club working again.
And I believe that with the kind of performance Chelsea are putting in week in week out, they are certainly going to win their first trophy under the ownership of Todd boehly and co.
Then lastly, the only place I think that Enzo mascara needs to work on by making an acquisition is the goalkeeping department and the central backs position, if they can sign a top class central and a goalkeeper, then I am very much certain that they are going to win the league title in the next three seasons.

With good results, Enzo Maresca gets massive applause but only several months ago, when he joined them, there was much doubt about his capabilty and many predictions on his failure in Chelsea. He is successful with them now even there is no final result for this season. What he has done with them now is good, but only temporary result and their position can be in top four or beyond top four when season ends.

They are telling the truth, firstly they're not competitive enough to fight for Premier League trophy and they now have big difference with Liverpool, the leading club. Secondly, they are saying this to avoid unnecessary pressure on themselves. They can achieve high ranks by simply focusing on each match, if they can do it well, match by match, a very high rank at the end will belong to them.

Telling noisily that they want to win a league trophy only creates more pressure on themselves, and catching more attention from opponents in the league. It only makes their future matches more difficult, and it's bad unwanted challenge.

Liverpool is really extraordinary this season, he showed his greatness and indeed there is great potential for Liverpool to lift the trophy in the English League and UCL as long as Liverpool plays consistently winning. but for me personally it is too early to say that Liverpool will be champions in the EPL or UCL because the match schedule is still tight but of course there is nothing wrong if we speculate that Liverpool does deserve to be the strongest candidate to become champions of the EPL and UCL this season.

I agree with you it is indeed very difficult to stop Liverpool's greatness but yes with the injuries of Liverpool players such as Liverpool's key players then of course it will make it difficult for Liverpool and of course their performance will potentially decrease. yes coincidentally at this time Liverpool is very lucky which is certainly different from other teams and it seems this is the fruit of Arne Slot's education who is very good at training his men so that the risk of injury is very thin for his men.

Mo Salah has just make a new record in Liverpool because he is the first player in Premier League history to reach 15 goals and 11 assists before Christmas and i am sure if Mo Salah can playing consistent until end of this season and not gets the injury he can being an Premier League top scorer for this season and currently Liverpool is still working on for new contract but indeed first proporsal didn't run well because Mo Salah has been reject it and most of Liverpool fans don't want Mo Salah leave including me so hopefully Liverpool can more concern and pay their attention to Mo Salah future but i am confident he will signing new contract soon and it's only a matter of time

Enzo Maresca and his boys always said they are not fighting to win the League trophy this season, all they want us to just build the team's performance and be able to achieve something good next season Since Enzo Maresca joined Chelsea and remove some players from the team squad everything change and that is the same thing Ruben Amorim needs to do to make Manchester United team performance change, Enzo Maresca remove some players in the team squad to make the team change and in January there are still some players that will leave the team.

Chelsea is not fighting for any title but if they have the opportunity to win the League title they will take it, according to the coach and also the players they said they are not in competition with Liverpool, Manchester City And Arsenal, all they want is the perform well but from my observation, they are just doing that to keep them playing well without no thinking of winning trophy and as a new coach Enzo Maresca is trying to let the players know that they should not only play for a trophy, they should also learn how to play for winning game and get the three points.

I feel like Liverpool shouldn't make any moves, not right now at least, right now things are going great for them and if they get anyone new, that could cause a little bit of trouble within the team.

I still suggest they should sigh Salah back right away, that dude is looking like the best player in the world right now, I am not saying best player in the league, I am not saying best player in the team or anything, I am saying looks like the best player in the WORLD right now. So they need to sign him back, and do that asap. Getting new players during this time could break the harmony and this is why I do not think that they should do anything about it, they should try to avoid ruining the great harmony that they have already.

It has been a pretty good era for Chelsea under Enzo Maresca because Chelsea have changed several managers before and finally they have been able to show their strength in competing. Enzo Maresca's arrival has given them a different side and they have been able to perform more consistently in the title race although overall their position to catch Liverpool is still very difficult. 12 games unbeaten now in all competitions and this shows something different for Chelsea.

For me the most important thing is Chelsea are consistent and regarding the title race it can happen, but it takes hard work and Chelsea cannot afford to lose in the next game. Although it looks difficult, there is still a chance to become one of the title challengers this season under Liverpool's ability, which appears much more solid.

The competition in the top four of the standings is not as competitive as last season, Manchester City and Arsenal are not at their best, so that giving Chelsea room to compete with Liverpool at the top of the standings. It must be admitted, Chelsea have developed better under Enzo Maresca, but the depth of the squad they have cannot be separated from Pochettino contribution.
In the Europa Conference League, Chelsea are the main favorites to win the trophy, they are too dominant from all the other contestants, basically Chelsea are more worthy of playing in the Champions League. In the Premier League, Chelsea are Liverpool main competitors in the hunt for trophies, maybe Arsenal can get involved again in the second half of the season. I think Chelsea are starting to rediscover their identity that was lost after the Tuchel era.

There is nothing wrong with this draw because 1 point is very valuable and Everton still deserves it rather than having to suffer defeat, Chelsea also has to accept this draw even though it is behind Liverpool, but in my opinion the difference is not too big, honestly I am very curious about the match that was postponed in the Liverpool vs Everton match, whether Everton can maintain a tight defense like they did against Chelsea and Arsenal, this will certainly determine how many points Liverpool will collect, whether it will be more or just a small difference with Chelsea.

it is true that Arsenal is currently finding it difficult to compete with strong EPL teams because what I see is also other strong teams like Liverpool and Chelsea which were unexpectedly good of course last season we saw Liverpool as a strong team but now under the tutelage of Arne Slot we see Liverpool playing better and their attacks are very dangerous to the opposing team. so too with Chelsea now under the tutelage of Enzo Maresca we see their strength is better so of course this clearly makes it more difficult for Arsenal to compete this season.

in my opinion now Arteta really has to make Arsenal perform better because now is the right time to fix Arsenal and I think Arsenal really needs new players because I see Arsenal players now not performing like before. of course if you look at the points, it has now been collected 33 of course there is still time for Arsenal to improve its performance and of course here I also think Arteta needs to train Arsenal players more optimally so that they can realize the dreams of their fans who have long wanted to become champions and of course the fans will be very disappointed if Arsenal does not become champions because Arsenal has always been runner-up for a long time and of course Arsenal fans definitely want to see Arteta bring Arsenal to become champions. but it is certainly not easy but usually Arteta always has good techniques in making his team even better, of course it is not too late for Arteta to transform his team into a strong team. but currently uniquely Manchester City is worse than Arsenal.

Liverpool are in a much better condition and they have a far greater opportunity to defeat Leicester City who will travel to Anfield. There is no opportunity for Leicester City to beat Liverpool in such conditions because they themselves appear so bad today. There was no victory that Leicester City could get in the previous five matches so that the condition was not profitable when they visited Liverpool and I was sure Liverpool would be very easy to beat them with a difference of two goals.

Yes, you are right friend. Maybe this is what can stop Liverpool's consistent performance. Because player injuries certainly have a huge impact on a team's performance. Especially if, for example, the injured player is a midfielder or forward, this will definitely cause a team to lose momentum to be able to continue winning matches in every match. So the point is that Liverpool really has to really maintain the condition of their players so they don't experience a storm of injuries like the previous season. Because in the previous season Liverpool was really hit by a storm of very serious injuries.

Because as far as I know, M Salah was not the only one who suffered an injury in the previous season. But there are more than 7 main Liverpool players who are injured. So at that time it was natural that Liverpool failed to become champions in the English league. Because with so many main players injured, of course it will be difficult for Liverpool to win every match. But even so, I was quite amazed by Liverpool in the previous season. Because even though many of the main players suffered injuries, Liverpool managed to finish in 3rd place with only 4 defeats. Meanwhile, Arsenal, which was ranked 2nd in the previous season, actually suffered 5 defeats. So therefore, we can conclude that, for example, Liverpool players have not suffered many injuries this season. It is certain that Liverpool can win many trophies.

Chelsea formal head coach really contributed positive impact to Chelsea when he was coaching the team and they where able to maintain a high position in the premier league. Enzo Maresca displayed some positive results that made people to conclude that he will going to perform more than Thomas Tuchel in Chelsea, because all the new young players he brought to Chelsea they are all doing excellently well in this premier league competition and Europa conference league too. You are right if you said Enzo Maresca is the current performing head of coach right now in the English premier League competition, because Chelsea where able to defeated and draw with some strong teams in this English premier league competition that made Chelsea to be rate among the teams that will embrace this title this season.

Since Thomas Tuchel left Chelsea, no other manager have been able to establish a working football style at the club before the arrival of Enzo Maresca in the summer. Chelsea haven't just improved but are now competitive in both the English Premier League title and in the UEFA Europa Conference League where they've won all the games they've played this season.
Maresca if you ask me is currently one of the best performing managers in the English Premier League and it's just a joy to watch

Arsenal play worse than two previous seasons and it is ironic as if the fall of Manchester City had happened in two previous seasons, Arsenal would have become a champion of Premier League. Ironically, in a season of surprising collapse of Manchester City, Arsenal have problems with their performances too and there is a sudden rise of Liverpool. Chance for Arsenal to beat Liverpool in Premier League title competition is small with their own form and excellent form of the competitor.

The injury of Saka, the most efficient and most contributive attacking player in their squad, is bad for Arsenal. Lack of appearances and contributions from Saka, Arsenal will have weaker attacking system and will possibly lose more points in future. This together with current big point difference behind Liverpool, is not good for Arsenal in a title race with Liverpool.

I doubt they can score 4 goals against Leicester. They will be playing without an important star like Bukayo Saka. We should not forget this. However, of course Arsenal is incomparably better than Leicester in terms of squad quality. The winner of the match will most likely be Gunnars.

Arsenal's chances of winning the Premier League this season are very difficult because of the tight competition that occurs and Arsenal are also unable to be consistent due to several problems that have not been resolved.
Bukayo Saka is one of the players who plays a role at Arsenal and Arteta certainly needs him because with Bukayo Saka it will make Arsenal's front line even more dangerous.
For the title fight, I doubt Arsenal have a chance this season because as far as we can see, Liverpool are much more likely to finish the season with the Premier League title.

Arteta desperately needs Bukayo Saka in his team to add sharpness up front, but that doesn't mean he can make Arsenal win the league. They are currently 6 points behind Liverpool at the top of the standings, a number that could increase to 9 if Liverpool can win their remaining game. It is difficult for Arsenal to compete with Liverpool because the problem of consistency in the team has not been completely resolved.

There is no doubt that Liverpool will be the favorites in the match. Leicester City's results in the last three games indicate that they are not a match for Liverpool.

Comparison last several manager before, Enzo Maresca have good achievement than Pochettino and Graham Potter after success bring Chelsea become big four teams by leading the 2nd standings position place. Significant improvement of Chelsea performance in this season after winning 10 of 17 matches recently in premier league. But last match have not good result after being draw by Everton and success stopping 5 consecutives winning matches of Chelsea.

In the boxing days, Chelsea will face Fulham and bigger opportunity for securing three points keep pressure Liverpool on the top place behind 4 points remaining, in other side Chelsea must get three points if won't their second standings place take by Arsenal who lead the 3rd place behind two points left.

Unfortunately for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City, Premier League have no break like other leagues in Christmas and new year holidays. It damages valuable time for player recovery and plan making from Pep Guardiola. Matches in next two weeks even can harm their position and chance in competition to top four and title more.

It's only matter of time till a day they are officially out of Premier League title race. Their hope is inconsistency of Liverpool in rest of season but who know, whether Liverpool play well or bad in coming months. If Liverpool play well like next 10 matches, it's enough to kick Manchester City out of the title race officially.

They did it many times in previous seasons but with not big differences behind their main competitors. Now they are 12 points behind Liverpool and it can be expanded to 15 points if Liverpool win one more match. 12 or 15 points is very big difference and if we take their bad form into account, their chance to catch Liverpool is very small, almost impossible.
