Yes, Liverpool needs to upset because of the disallowed penalty which was clearly a penalty, but just as you say, it is a fair draw and both teams take equal points.
Even Pep said that Liverpool deserve to win, but they tried to get a point because they knew how Anfield was and they knew how strong Liverpool was in the match.

Arsenal should be very careful in their next match against Manchester City because Manchester City might transfer their aggression on Arsenal, and if Arsenal loose that match, their chance of winning the Premier League will reduce, while if they win the match, they will surely have the high chance of winning the League this season.

You are so quick to write off Arsenal knowing quite well they are at the top of the league,  you know quite well that the underdogs can still rise to be champions. Also Arsenal on the other hand have all the forces and legs to compete for the title, Man city are currently having a keeper  crisis Ederson has reportedly picked up a knock injury in thier last outing with Liverpool. Same Liverpool still battling with injuries. But Arsenal with their players coming back gradually from injury couple with thier current form can be really title contenders. Personally I want them to win the league they have really come a long way and they deserve it. If they can manage to keep up with this current form of scoring more than 3 goals in a match. It no doubt that they are the most decorated team this season, the understanding among players and whole team is just so unspeakable.
 Moreover, Arsenal fan has been the most loyal and patient fanbase, they have long dreamt about this day, at least this trophy will prove that they have been progress in the team in the past 5years. Arteta is really doing a fantastic job at the team. The league is still up for grab for any team. Arsenal should not give too comfortable yet, Liverpool fighting hard to give Klopp a memorable season. Pep Gaudiola still doesn’t want to back down he is relentless and strong headed, it will be a very nice thing to watch, let the best team win.

Finally,Arsenal have been able to break the ill luck that normally stand as a stumbling block whenever they get to round 16 of the UEFA Champions league.David Raya,which was to me the man of the match is the hero that saved Arsenal after saving two of the kicks from FC Porto.
They are now through to the quater final,and they may be drawn to either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid who have already qualified too.
Now they are done with the assignment of eliminating FC Porto,they will be focused on their next premier league game against Manchester City on the 19,which can be regarded as a title decider.

Salah may be a physical factor that makes him not be dropped into the starting eleven. after participating in the Africa Cup Salah was injured.. Therefore, Jurgen Klopp did not want to push him too hard to play in the big match, as there was a risk of getting injured again if in a highly intense and pressurized game.

It is his job, and he has been paid to lead his team to great success, but it is unlikely to happen this season since the competitions are getting even tougher than before. He was a professional coach, and carrying a heavy burden was always part of his responsibilities and club would not sign him as a coach if arteta was not willing to accept it. Who knows if it will repeat the same outcome as last season, when Arsenal blew several games at the end of the season after it was missing some important points in a row which lead club to lost EPL trophy.
The game Arsenal vs Porto is still ongoing. It appeared to me that this game would go to penalties. Arsenal faces tough competition from City and Liverpool. Arsenal has a reputation for bottling the trophy and it's likely to happen again soon.
Don't be surprised if Arsenal repeats their results from last season. Arsenal was unable to maintain consistency in the EPL, which was the primary reason for the club's failure to win the EPL trophy and this probably continue in the future. 
Im feeling liverpool or city gonna be a winner this season..


No man, it's almost going through the penalty. Arsenal was unable to win against porto through an open play game. We will see that very soon which club will qualify for the next stage. Porto had very strong defensive, it was only conceded a goal against arsenal.
There will be more srong clubs to come in the future when arsenal able to qualify for the further stage.

Everything became different after they lost a number of key players due to injury, their midfielder Tonali also had to be sidelined due to a ban from playing for 10 months. It is understandable why they experienced a decline in performance, focusing completely on the Premier League after being eliminated in the Champions League did not make Newcastle stable and perform better.

Chelsea is very ambitious to secure full points, because they want to penetrate the top 10 of the standings, they managed to make good use of the home game. Beating the Blues is a tough task, even though Pochettino fleet experienced more ups and downs in performance, but Newcastle managed to put up impressive resistance at Stamford Bridge yesterday.

It's true, Newcastle needs to overhaul the depth of its squad next season, so that it can compete again in the top four of the standings. In the remainder of this season, their realistic target is to finish on the European track, I think this is still possible. Eddie Howe is required to find the best solution, how to continue to be consistent in the future.

Yes but I think Liverpool had slightly more ball control and played better pressing than Manchester City. For obvious reasons this game took place on the highest level possible, but if you summarize all the stats and facts, Liverpool was a few percentage points better than Manchester City and I think they should have had two penalties instead of one. In the end it was a fair draw and both took the point and it was ok, but you could see that Liverpool was still upset about the final scene when their player was fouled in the Manchester City box. It wouldn't have been a wrong decision if the referee decided to give Liverpool that penalty.

It would not sound good if Arsenal had two promising seasons in the Premier League and still failed to be called the 2023/2024 champions of the PL title.
It is not easy to come top of the PL table as we all know but Arsenal has had a good performing season that has wowed us to believe that they are the next to lift the PL trophy. It will not be encouraging to learn that, at the end of the season, Arsenal later lost lifting the PL trophy for the second time in a stretch

Although Liverpool didn't play with all their main players, Liverpool still dominated the match. It is very clear if we take a look at the stats. Liverpool made 19 shots, Man City only could make 10 shots. Liverpool also won the ball possession, it means Liverpool midfielders playing better. If Liverpool plays with full of the main players, the result can be different.

I don't know why Klopp put Salah, Gakpo, and Robertson in the bench. I think these 3 players are the main players of Liverpool and contributed much on every match. However, this may be a tactic applied by Klopp. Well, a draw isn't too bad result. Liverpool still has good chance to win the title in this season. The competition is still far from the end.

Liverpool was superior in total number of shots and possession of the ball, but both teams both fired 6 shots on target. A draw was fair enough, but it actually made Arsenal benefit. Arsenal leads the standings because they have a higher goal difference than Liverpool, which is what makes them lead the standings.

The next match against Arsenal will make Manchester City perform better, especially because it is their chance to take over the standings from Arsenal and Liverpool, but Liverpool seems to have an easier match compared to Arsenal and Manchester City. Liverpool will only have a postponed match against Everton, which gives City and Arsenal the advantage.

I don't know if I actually watched a different match because from what I watch from the match it was definitely the other round as Liverpool were the once who played the most football and were the once in a much better place to actually win the match. The two team were very strong so the draw that they played was a good result for both team so now if they really want to be in the game for the title race then they would need to be extra careful not to give away any free points.

So true, this is also the main reason todd boehly was targeting a new coach to handle the club soon. The incompetent of pochettino in managing the club gave no difference compared to the previous coach like graham potter or even lampard. Pochettino did it a bit better since chelsea able to play against liverpool in the final of EFL cup but it lost against liverpool.
Chelsea might won it if club has winning mentality but things are very different when chelsea acquired by the new owner and this is also disrupting not only the gameplay of club but all of things about the club. This club never get enhanced since the new coach was taking over the blues.
From what i can see that if chelsea was alwasy showing the same performance. Not even a small improvement happened to the club. This club sometimes play good or bad depending on what moods happened to the its players.

Totally overrated club these days. The golden time for chelsea has gone and it's time for the blues to get bad result from this thing. It was also making the situation even worst. To be honest, sterling shall not evne play as he was only making the gameplay of club even worst.
This guy is a harsh guy and he was rarely trusting his teammates. WHat he can do is alwasy dribbling the ball over and over again. Im also tired to see the more shitty thing showed by chelsea.

Newcastle's performance has been down this season and they are completely different compared to last season. I think they need to improve their squad especially as the team's performance has been unreliable so far, but I know the impact of injuries to several players has also changed them.

Newcastle lost to Chelsea with a score of 3-2 when Newcastle could dominate the match, but they did not have many goal opportunities compared to Chelsea. Of course it was a difficult match because basically Chelsea played well at home, so Chelsea deserved to win it. Whatever it is, Eddie Howe needs to think about how to increase the depth of his squad next season. Newcastle must not allow things like this to continue to happen which in turn makes their league chances drop low.

Arsenal was not the first team to bottle a league trophy when they were leading Manchester City by a big point difference. You are saying Arsenal will not win the Premier League trophy this season because of what they did last season in the Premier League. The only thing that made Manchester City beat Arsenal for the Premier League title last season was that Arsenal failed to beat Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. This season, Arsenal has what it takes to beat Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, so I see no reason why you say Arsenal are not ready to win the Premier League title this season. 

I don't know if you watch but if you did you will know that Liverpool had more opportunities than Manchester City, Liverpool was the better team they had more opportunities and controlled the game so Manchester City were lucky to draw the game. I expected a draw from this fixture because any team that loses will definitely be left behind in the race, Arsenal were the lucky ones this time around as they utilize the opportunity to take the lead but they will also play a big game ahead and any drop of points will be costly.

In this race when these teams face each other they should try their possible best not to lose to their rivals else they would be left out in the race. There is still 10 games to play so there is still hope for them if they don't lose any game.

Looking at the Liverpool vs Man City stats I understand why the result was drawn. They both played evenly matched. Man City are good because they play at Anfield. Liverpool and Man City both made 6 shots on goal. Their possession of the ball didn't differ much either. Both teams are able to exploit weaknesses with opponents well. But with the current conditions I am happy with Man City's game. In fact, I like Man City as much as you do, so I hope Man City can win against Arsenal on March 31.

What I will say is Manchester city were more lucky to have even gotten a point from the game, Liverpool dominated the game and Should have won the game had Luiz Diaz converted his clear cut chances. For a very long term I have never seen Pep’s team been draw back before until this game. So if there should be any club hitting their heads on the wall for the draw it should be Liverpool and not Manchester city.

What I will say concerning the remaining fixtures for both clubs is that they all need to focus on the clubs and not only on the big games. The matches you think might be a easy walk for them could be difficult one for them considering the fact that clubs will be fighting to avoid relegation or miss out from the European competitions can be tricky

Mikel Arteta's task this season has become even more difficult because apart from the Premier League, Arteta also has to continue to make Arsenal go further in the UCL. And yes, it's not an easy thing to be consistent in all competitions. But Arsenal's dream of winning the title in the EPL this season will definitely be bigger. Because they failed last season and cannot fail again this season.

By the way, Arsenal is currently playing against Porto at the Emirates Stadium. And it looks like Arsenal have managed to get several opportunities. And this is a sign that it looks like Arsenal will win today's match. And it is hoped that they can progress further in the UCL.

Most likely the match against Chelsea will be postponed and a good momentum is actually for Arsenal when facing Manchester City because after a slightly longer rest schedule as well as with the possibility of Ederson being unable to play for Manchester City this provides a breath of fresh air for them because after all it is a good advantage to increase their probability of being able to play and get points against Manchester City but even so Manchester City is still Manchester City where they are a strong club that is sometimes difficult to penetrate so the risk is still very much there for Arsenal.

For Liverpool though they also have a pretty fierce match but at least against Brighton and Tottenham they are still the favorites in the match. Brighton this season is like losing control where some of the players who left in midfield earlier this season gave a tremendous void and impacted their performance and Tottenham is still a troublesome dark horse but Liverpool is still the favorite when facing these 2 opponents although they also cannot be underestimated.

That's true but the biggest mistake they made was drawing there match against Liverpool because that was there opportunity of becoming the top position of the premier league but they lost the chance, funny enough if they had utilize all the opportunity they had on that match they would have surely win Liverpool but right now nothing is certain yet because they also have Arsenal to face and Liverpool still have a point different with Manchester City and there is every chance that Liverpool will win there next match and after then they will still obtain there first position while Arsenal on the second leaving Manchester City on a very tight corner, so for now is really difficult for Manchester City.
