Manchester City have a manager that knows how to rotate his squad. Secondly, Manchester City have always had a big squad. They know how to give their players rest. Thirdly, since Manchester City have more quality squad depth than Arsenal, they can afford to rest some of their key players in a match and still be able to win that match.
De Bruyne was injured and they still managed. Rodri is injured and they're still good. That's because they have players that can fill the shoes of these players to an extent.

Speaking about Liverpool. They won the Champions League and won the EPL the next year and what has happened to them since? The best they've finished is second in the league. They even went to the Europa last season. See how poor they were due to injuries? What do you think happened after those two high-flying seasons?
The kind of football Liverpool play requires a lot of rotation because they're always pressing and running so players are vulnerable.

Don't underestimate fatigue. Not every player can play 50 matches a season and still play another 50 matches the next season while having a very short break. A break where they might be representing their national teams during that time.
These players train twice almost every day and play twice almost every week so if they're not well rotated they can either get injured or get fatigued.

But at least Arsenal has always managed to beat Crystal Palace in the last 3 meetings. Arsenal even scored 4 goals in the home match. But in away matches, Arsenal couldn't score many goals. they only won with a narrow score of 0-1. But there is a reason why Arsenal could only score 1 goal in the last match against Crystal Palace. At that time Arsenal only played with 10 players from the 67th minute. So it was natural that Arsenal only won narrowly at that time.

This time Arsenal also experienced some bad matches. But statistically we can see that there is an improvement in the Arsenal vs Liverpool match in the FA Cup. At that time Arsenal had more opportunities and almost broke into Liverpool's goal several times. It's just that Liverpool's defense is much stronger. And Arsenal also have problems in finishing. But for the match against Crystal Palace, I think Arsenal will succeed in converting some of their attacks into goals.

Moreover, this is a home match. Ranked 4th vs ranked 14th, I think it's natural that Arsenal is the favourite. Even though it is experiencing setbacks. Crystal Palace even just lost to Everton. This adds to my confidence in Arsenal.

A lot of people predicted that what happened to Arsenal last season is going to repeat itself this season. I also have the same feeling, but I am just surprised that Arsenal performance has started reducing so early. There are still lots of matches to be played, and if their performance keeps on dropping, they will find it difficult to end the season in the top 4 this season. Arteta is really having lots of things to work on, and I am sure Arsenal is really in need of new strikers. Saka has not really been in form this season, his performance dropped drastically this season, which affected Arsenal's performance. Let’s see what Arsenal will be playing in their next match against Crystal Palace, they should be able to win the match, but it’s not going to be a easy win for them.

The chance is big for arsenal to win the game against palace. Palace was not in a good shape after it was declining to the bottom. I think that we will be seeing that arsenal to struggle against palace. Arsenal has been buying some expensive players but that's not enough.
Arteta needs to do something to save arsenal from going down to the middle place. It has no big gap toward liverpool but arsenal will be thrown away from the title race if it keeps to perform shit like that.

Arteta has an idea to take benzema from ittihad which is good. Having an experienced player is far better rather than having some inexperienced players. The strikers of arsenal are obviously useless strikers.
Arsenal needs to get someone like benzema to support the team. This is the best decision that can be taken by the club.

And because of that they will all go home sooner than they can survive for next season. I quite regret why they continue to decline like this and perhaps their existing readiness also influences the less than optimal results they get. This winter I also don't really see any transfer activity from Burnley, Luton and Sheffield so if they still use the same line-up then the results will remain the same.

The coaches of each team have certainly tried their best, but again the quality of their players is far below that of mediocre teams to other elite EPL teams. Maybe if they still have the motivation to survive then this half season will be something worthwhile and at least not being relegated could make them more enthusiastic for next season. That is my hope and do not accept the current situation.

I can't say Palace are the same with Arsenal in terms of performance, you should use their position on the log to judge that. Arsenal major problem is to convert chances they have got but talking about the Crystal Palace side is just something we really can't explain.
Palace don't have any target, win today lose tomorrow draw and lose till they wake up to get a win, the Palace side can't be anything close to the Gunners. They lost to Everton who have been in a very bad shape and they can still lose to Arsenal only if the Gunners play more of the attacking football than staying back and defend which they know they're not good at it.
But I feel is going to be an easy win against Palace this time around, I just hope Arsenal do get a better striker before the transfer market closes.

Everything seems to be like a big deal to Arsenal right now because both at the FA Cup and the Premier league, they have not really performed up to par. The last four previous matches were not pleasing at all for the club as they failed to win their matches against Liverpool, which was a draw in the Premier leaague, they also failed to win against West Ham with a 0 - 2 lost to West Ham in the Premier league, another failure to win against Fulham with a 2 over 1 in the Premier league, with the fourth failure against Liverpool again in the FA Cup to 0 - 2.

What hope do you have over them winning Crystal Palace this time around? Besides in their last fixturings they have not impressively won over Crystal Palace too. They have been draws and lost to Crystal Palace in between their last 5 fixtures.

Now Arsenal have dropped down to the 4th position in the table standing with 40 points and 5 point difference between the table leads who are the Liverpool. I'm not happy with this result at all as the late crippling misperformance of the Arsenal. Could it be that the squad is weak and can't perform up to the ranks.

if Arsenal is not in good form, I'm afraid Crystal Palace can match their game. like when Crystal Palace held Brighton and Man City to a draw.
Crystal Palace's current performance is almost the same as Arsenal. they are not consistent in every match. even today they also lost to Everton.
Regarding the next match, of course, Arsenal will be the favorite to win. Arteta's squad is certainly stronger even though they have faced several problems in several matches.
don't expect much from Crystal Palace, but hopefully, the match will be interesting.

Fatigue should be the excuse on for the decline in their performance. Any club that is not up to the task of winning the trophy, does not deserve it because we have other clubs that are in the same competitions that Arsenal is in,and they are doing good. The fact remains that Arsenal cannot be consistent in their matches till the end. They use to have this weak spirit of fighting till the end, and the easily give up when the competition is tight.

If you talk about injury, I can understand that because it is injury that I think can hit a club hard, to make them decline in performance. Arteta should have learnt his lesson from last year, that he should have brought new and strong players that can replace other players when they have dropped form. Arsenal is always on the race but they give up on it at the middle. Lack will take this as lack of proper plan and focus.

If to win again in the next match is very easy. what's more the next opponent is a weak team Crystal Palace and Arsenal also play at home in front of their supporters, it's clearly easy. but to become a champion after losing many points in the previous match will be difficult. what's more is currently 5 points behind the leader of the standings Liverpool.

Actually, Arsenal's performance is not that bad and I never judge that Arsenal has no hope, it's just that this club has often experienced consistent losses lately, even though I sometimes doubt it, I still see who Arsenal will be against and for me Crystal Palace is not an opponent. which is too strong and this time I believe Arteta will break the bad things that happened in the previous match because if it doesn't get better soon I'm sure Tottenham will soon take over his position because currently I see Tottenham seem to be slowly getting better.
Just predicting the result of the match for Arsenal will end 2-0.

I agree with your point; it's a genuine concern. Arsenal is facing sustainability issues without a clinical finisher in the striker position. This teams are not overly concerned about their striker, allowing them to focus on neutralizing their wingers. This lack of threat leads to visible signs of frustration and a gradual loss of form and confidence. There's a growing worry about Arsenal's potential to finish outside the top 4. To win the league or remain competitive, they need to pose a significant threat that makes opponents respect and fear them. Arsenal's upcoming match against Crystal Palace is a cause for concern.

Yes, I will still favor Arsenal whatever happens. Because I know that Arsenal, who are the hosts in this match, will definitely make the visiting team lose. Arteta will also definitely do something to not repeat the mistakes they made when facing West Ham, Fullham and Liverpool.

Due to the depth of the squad and the history of meetings, Arsenal is actually always far superior to Crystal Palace. So I have to throw away my doubts for this fight. I had doubts but now I am starting to believe in Arsenal again after seeing their head to head with Crystal Palace.

Although in the previous two matches in the Premier League match Arsenal got defeated but ya, at least for the next match against Crystal Palace I think Arsenal still have a good chance of winning . Indeed, doubts will remain because after all Arsenal also lost against Fulham and of course, with that defeat will make Arsenal a little doubtful but not completely . Therefore, although it will still be difficult to beat Crystal Palace in the match later, but I am still confident to still choose Arsenal to win in the next match in the Premier League against Crystal Palace.

But don't forget that this season Crystal Palace has managed to beat Manchester United at the start of this season. And also managed to hold Manchester City to a draw. But today Crystal Palace also suffered defeat by Everton in the FA Cup. So I think it is difficult for us to predict Crystal Palace's performance. In terms of defense quality, Crystal Palace is actually also quite good. Now it's just a matter of how Arsenal can penetrate the Crystal Palace defense and score a goal. Because the problem that Arsenal currently has is actually their poor finishing in attack. But in other respects Arsenal is still very superior compared to Crystal Palace. So I also feel that Arsenal will win. But I also feel that a draw could also occur in this match.

Because we also have to consider the condition of Arsenal, who even lost to Fullham and West Ham. In fact, this match should have belonged to Arsenal. But they failed and instead lost. But West Ham and Fullham are of course at a higher level than Crystal Palace.

One of the major problem of Arsenal is lack of depth which has been the same problem of last season, though they did sign two players, Havertz and injured Timber of course those signings  hasn't made the squad more formidable and again it's obvious the team lack a competent striker and Arteta hasn't address that problem take a look at most the matches they lost they dominated and took most of the possessions yet couldn't register or score goals, the team is the architect of their own fortune if the management is ready to win the league they should do the needful by signing top striker, with their next match against crystal palace as it's going to be a tough match because now Arsenal is unpredictable.

Arsenal still have a chance but it may only be a maximum of finishing in the top 3, a slight decrease from last season. Because being a competitor to Liverpool and Man City is quite difficult, in fact I think Arteta feels quite frustrated with the results in the last few matches. I really hope Arsenal can lift the EPL trophy but the fact is that English  giants like Man City and Liverpool will not let that happen. Like it or not Arsenal always have to experience a painful end to the season, and it doesn't happen just once or twice. I don't know what factors are the big obstacles for Arsenal in achieving it but for Arteta if he continues to gain confidence in 1 or 2 more seasons it could be possible.

So, did you mean arsenal was the only club who was getting fatigue? Did you think other club was not getting the same thing like arsenal as well? this is so strange to see that you said like that caused by all of teams were working so hard to win any competitions.
It sounds non sense to use fatigue as an excuse to justify the lost streak faced by arsenal. Just make it clear if arsenal was playing so badly due to the its horrific performance. It will be far easy to explain what is happening with arsenal.

So, what about the club like manchester city and liverpool? Are you joking with your statement? all of top teams have busy schedules and using fatigue as an excuse is a non sense thing.

Current three premier league teams difficult in the winning trend and dropped to relegation zone, but have good thing with fewest difference points on higher position above relegation zone. Three of promotion team in Premier league this season, Luton Town have quit well performance and remaining one point left behind Everton have get 10 points deduction in this season. Luton Twon have one match left and get chance out from relegation zone if can win upcoming match.
Sheffield United have very poor performance as three promotion team in Premier league this season, I doubt with their potential existing in Premier League nest season because 9 points of 20 matches seems not promising help them out from relegation zone and need more 30 points left if want secure position from relegation zone.

Maybe Arsenal is experiencing conditions similar to last season. Even this season I think it's worse. Because last season we saw Arsenal still ranked at the top in the middle of the season. And dropped to 2nd place at the end of the season. Arteta seems to have to rebuild the squad. More thorough preparations must be made for next season. But this season there is something different, namely Arsenal will fight in the last 16 of the UCL. So Arsenal's goals may be much bigger this season. But with the current conditions, it is natural that doubts are starting to creep in among all Arsenal fans.

against Crystal Palace shouldn't be a big deal. But maybe Arsenal will find it difficult to score many goals. Arsenal will probably win but with a narrow score.
