I don't think it's really unique
Bournemouth is below Man City and West Ham is below Manchester United nothing special unless they give a surprise by surpassing outperformed the Manchester duo.

The competition in the Premier League is always tight in the top five, the middle rankings as well as in the relegation zone where the points difference is not too far but it will still feel interesting because what we are witnessing now may be different at the end of the season.

Not easy keep consistent performance in Premier League after Liverpool got failure secure three points in last two consecutives matches being draw by Newcastle United and Fulham last match. Liverpool have remaining 2 points left from Chelsea although have one postponed match against Everton but their position not secure yet how consistent performance of Chelsea keep in the 5 consecutives winning matches.
Upcoming match, Liverpool will face difficult teams Tottenham Hotspur, Leicester, West Ham and Manchester United, difference with Chelsea have easily opponent teams for several matches later and large opportunity move to the first place if Liverpool losses points.

In this season, Premier League tittle race dominance awhile by Liverpool and Chelsea after both teams have two points remaining than Arsenal  have inconsistent performance and drop to 3rd place behind 6 points from Liverpool.

Yeah is always not fair to underestimate a club but sometimes most people believe that underestimating a club gives them the courage, confident and the mindset that they are more bigger than the opposite club and when you reason that is actually true because only that will eradicate the fear in you but however it shouldn't be too over emphasized on the field because that's what causes failure for the team to win, however we will be witnessing EFL CUP Quarter finals by Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United who has beginning to redeem themselves on there performance from their previous outcome, so I believe Tottenham Hotspur may likely be influenced by that into looking down on themselves, so any club that win between them goes straight to the semi finals.

It is not easy to maintain consistency in the Premier League and one defeat will affect the team's performance in the next match and maybe this is what the Liverpool coach needs to consider and he can rotate when facing a much weaker team. Liverpool's performance is different from Arsenal and maybe we can see the history of football about Liverpool and Arsenal in the Premier League. Now it is still too early to say that Liverpool will be a candidate for the title because it might take a lot to see that and I think entering the middle of the season it will be a little easier to predict. Hopefully they are not like Arsenal who are at the top of the standings, but are finally defeated by Manchester City's ability to come out as champions.

Yes, Gabriel Jesus' performance was very impressive in this match, he created a hat trick and brought victory for Arsenal.
Crystal Palace created a quick goal in the 4th minute, Arsenal could not reply in the first half. but entering the second half they looked more comfortable in the game so that 3 goals were scored and turned things around. An additional goal created by Crystal Palace in the 5 minutes before the match ended was not enough to make them equalize.
There is 1 match left in this quarter-final between Tottenham vs Manchester United. I want to see how Manchester United play after they beat Manchester City in the previous week in the English League.

Last night Federico Chiesa was played as substutition player that he was played for 45 minutes and made 3 shots attempts and i can see Liverpool can win from Southampton although Arne Slot have decide to play with some of reserved players and about Federico Chiesa finally after few months injured he can return to play again although he still unable to in form but at least Federico Chiesa can fully recover from his injured and for Premier League matches unfortunately Arne Slot still didn't trust him to playing as regular player but i have no wonder about that because for winger position Federico Chiesa have to compete with Mo Salah or Luis Diaz which a bit hard for him to replace these players position

I think that this Liverpool game against Southampton is not a premier league game, it's a carabao cup game, so the possible outcome of this game have no effect on the league standings, though they eventually won 2-1 last night, but it wasn't a premier league game.
Then as for fredrico chiesa, though his Liverpool career got of to a difficult start due to the fact that he can't break into the team, which we all know that the other attacking players in the team are in a better form than him, but I believe that if he can have a run of games like five to seven games, he might probably pick his form back, but on the longer run, I believe that he is actually going to comes good for this Liverpool side no doubt.

It won't be fair to underestimate a team before the game kick-off, maybe lets wait for the ball to bounce then we can say Tottenham Hotspur will be defeated by Liverpool but for now we can't be so sure on that. Nottingham forest this season is one underdog team in the EPL that this season has been creating much trouble to bigger teams than when they've to play with teams of their level. Liverpool would have to be careful and we'll tactical to avoid losing points to them for a second time especially now they will be playing from away. As for Chelsea, the manager has constantly reminded the world that they are not after the trophy and maybe we have to accept that for now and see how it goes for them by March next year.

It's a very good show from Gabriel Jesus, but it won't turn him to be a very goal productive striker or forward. Arsenal will continue to face with lack of a goal productive striker in this season, and this will be their biggest disadvantage compares to Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City in top four or title competition. Gabriel Jesus tried a lot and he succeded in this match but at his age, it's really hard for him to suddenly changing his skills and ability to score more goals and do it regularly like his habit.

A good striker needs to score goals very regularly, in nearly all matches, as this goal scoring intensity will help his team to gain more points. A hattrick looks beautiful and impressive but if one match like this together with 3 other matches without goal, in general that player has bad form.

Being skeptical about some teams is normal because no one knows when a team will start flopping, there wouldn't be an announcement to that effect, for now lets enjoy Chelsea's performance for now while it last, with what is happening in the EPL it's uncertain to conclude that a particular team will win the title race, Liverpool has created that chance despite having and outstanding match with everton which is also a threat for them to continue occupying the first position of the league standings, the thing is we cant still conclude, we already know that most of these teams performance fluntuates thats why it woudnt be easy to conclude in that match, for me the chances for liverpool in that match is 50/50, personally i love liverpool force, to be realistic, it will be very difficult for everton to stop them in that match but lets see how events will turn out to be in that match, yea. Slot deserves an acolade because it's not easy for a manager to come in and still continue doing great with  the players that was available during his predecessor time without adding players to the club, this shows that he is really a good manager having said that, I have not seen arsenal as a team thats ready to win the EPL yet despite their good performance so far although time will tell.

Gabriel Jesus' hat trick was the highlight of this match and I think this is the momentum for Gabriel Jesus to be able to rise again to get his best performance and regain Arteta's trust after at the beginning of this season Gabriel Jesus had a little difficulty and even rarely got playing minutes.
Regarding Arsenal's victory, it was not a surprise, they have much better strength than Crystal Palace, so it is natural that Arsenal could win the match even though the final score was 3-2 for Arsenal's victory, but I don't see Arsenal having any difficulties.

Liverpool know that in crisis and chaotic time of Manchester City, they must take advantage of this perfect time, to expand point difference in order to increase their own chance to win against Manchester City in Premier League title competition. Manchester City have good potential to bounce back and if Liverpool won't be careful, they might lose current advantage very quickly. Manchester City are a team that can not be underestimated with star players they have and with their abundant experience in title race.

Tottenham have many good players but after Kane left, they relied too much on Son Heung Min and this player is older with seasons. Tottenham are enjoying very last good seasons from Son, and if they can not get anything big with him, they will fall down soon because replacing both Son and Kane in their attacking system is not easy.

Tottenham is a strong team and they can beat any strong club, but they lack of stability that prevents them to win titles and even fail to complete in top four recent seasons.

Liverpool are like other clubs, they can not win every match and any good streak has to be broken. Liverpool have to learn from their failures last season by ambitiously wanted to win all possible titles and when the season ended, they had nearly empty hands with not happy ending for Klopp era. This season began and went well for Liverpool in its first half, but they still have a second half to fight and whether they win titles or not, it depends on last part of season.

I agree that Tottenham is team to watch out for because they have beaten big teams like Manchester City in past. But they have big problem they do not play well all time. Sometimes they win big but then they lose to teams that are not as good means they have consistency issue. To be real threat to Liverpool Tottenham needs to find way to play well all time. On the other hand Liverpool really needs to win after not winning their last two games. They will probably play very hard and try to get three points to stay at top of Premier League. Considering how important this game is I think Liverpool experience and ability to play well all time will help them win.

yes, maybe they don't think Carabao cup are not important tournament so that situation Arteta doesn't turn with a complete squad, but so far even if not complete, Arsenal give chance to win the tournament if we look how Gabriel performance create the hattrick. Gabriel also silenced the criticism he had been getting before, I didn't expect he scored 3 goals this evening with not complete squad. he's usually barren, and always misses when front of goal, I don't know what the motivation. but of all the things that happened, Arsenal will make a surprise us if they wins the tournament, because most likely they will meet Liverpool on next semifinal or final.

Personally I don’t see Tottenham winning games like this, if there is a club I can call very inconsistent then I will simply give that tittle to Tottenham most especially against their rivals like in the top six, Tottenham over the past few years have usually find it very hard to take points off clubs like Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal but usually turn out big against the Manchester clubs.

Personally I will go for a Liverpool win because as a tittle contenders I don’t see them dropping points back to back and after the weekend points drop another game again if they drop points will be definitely not good for them considering the fact that they have lots of top games to come by this month for them

If we are talking about consistency this season. Between Manchester United and Tottenham who is more consistent. You can agree with me that Tottenham is more consistent. So we should not in any way I count Tottenham out of EFL against Manchester United.
I am having this feeling that Amorim will not be good everywhere. He should choose either;
EPL;
EFL;
Europa;
FA
The one to concentrate and win for the club while still studying, understanding and propagating his style of play to the guys. Going trophiless will give him alot of pressure that he might not be able to handle.

Bro, it seems that you forget that this match did not have an impact on the standings in the Premier League because this is the EFL Cup match so Liverpool are still safe. In the next match Liverpool will face Tottenham well this is the 16th match for Liverpool and if Liverpool wins, Chelsea are 5 points behind because Chelsea have played the 16th match.

Based on history, Liverpool drew in the last 2 matches so I don't think they will miss more points in this match especially at this time Chelsea is on fire which means they can catch up at any time. On the other hand Tottenham is not a consistent team so it is not easy to predict but yeah I'm sure the two teams will score each other and I will place a bet there, it's safer.

I too don't have that confidence with this Chelsea team even if they're doing well at the moment, they can freeze up when it matters just like Arsenal did last season. Why do you think the 5 point gap is possible? Everton will fight to make Liverpool lose that title and the 3pt won't be that easy, Everton can get a point or even all 3pt so I can't bank on that game at hand Liverpool have as an advantage not until they win it so for now the title race is clearly open.
I won't talk about experience when it comes to winning title, because Arteta who have been experiencing the EPL for a very long time as a coach could not win at least 1 EPL title so if Slot players his cards well he might win this season's title. For me Slot has been operating very well and he should win the coach of the season because this man did not buy like 30 players to help him win the league, he only made use of what Klopp left behind and he's doing well with the boys.

Actually, Tottenham should also be watched out for by Liverpool, because the club is also usually quite good at conquering top clubs. It's just that, unfortunately Tottenham's performance is not that consistent. Sometimes, they are so enthusiastic in defeating opponents, even managing to embarrass Man City several times. It's just that, on several occasions they also failed to win from middle clubs. So, Tottenham really has to be more consistent to be able to beat Liverpool.

But I think Liverpool won't let this happen. After failing to win and only drawing twice, they need to win to maintain their position at the top of the EPL this time.

To be fair, both of those teams are having troubles. Man United might have won and made their fans super-happy for beating their arch-rivals at their home, but it was not a good game by Man United. And before that win, they've lost two league games in a row (to Arsenal and Nottm Forest). It's still a long way to go for Amorim and his team. So far Ruud van Nistelrooy had better results as an interim manager.
Man United are playing an away game against Tottenham tomorrow in the EFL Cup quarter-final, their performance will tell us a lot.

Meanwhile, there are speculations about Haaland leaving Man City for either Barcelona or PSG, but it will unlikely happen in the Winter transfer window, but rather at the end of the season:
