If I am asked to mention the teams that are quite stable in the EPL top 4 in the last few years, I will mention Manchester City, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea, and Leicester. But this season, only one amongst these aforementioned teams is doing well. It's not bad that different names are now written on the top of the table. Times like this do come in football, so I don't think we shouldn't be so perturbed about the changes cuz a time shall come when clubs like Brighton, Newcastle, or Fulham will also be leading the race.
And that is Manchester City, yes they are doing very well in the Premier League and continue to reign supreme. Their squad has not changed much, there have only been a few players in and out, they have shown great determination over the past few seasons. As for other teams, they still can't play consistently in every season. What's more, what we are talking about is the English League, where the competition here is very competitive.

fc everton has announced the successor of Frank Lampard just days after his sacking. Sean Dyche, who previously coached fc burnley and has been without a club since april 2022, takes over the coaching job at the toffees. the 51-yo sign a contract until june 2025, and his first match next saturday will be against league leaders arsenal london
Of course this is Dyche's tough task to get Everton out of the relegation zone. moreover, the task is so hard to lead his troops in the match against Arsenal at the Goodison Park Stadium, but even so, of course, a process is needed to make Everton rise. 
Manchester united is strong enough to face the club like crystal palace. Don't you see how bad the results achieved by palace in the last 5 matches?
Is not it enough to be a reason why MU's performance is so good against palace? I have different opinion about that. MU is still at higher level compared with crystal palace. MU sometimes become inconsistent but this didn't remove the fact that MU is still above palace in everything.
Rashford is ready to make another goal for MU against palace.
Yeah that's true, but they just faced Palace and got a draw, that's why people were thinking maybe United is better and maybe Palace is bad but maybe there is something that is a bit wrong for United, like they can beat any team but Palace has something they are not ready for or something. Mismatch is a real thing in football, a team could go ahead and win UCL, but if they mismatch with a lower level team they could still lose.Is not it enough to be a reason why MU's performance is so good against palace?

This is why people were unsure. I still think United easy win is a guarantee, that's like the easiest win they could get, plus they are near the top and third position is wide open for them, Newcastle and United, those were only ones who can get it.
The difference is when they are in the Abramovich empire after spending a lot of money they get instant results but right now they still don't accept those conditions and maybe even seem like a real waste of money considering the current state of affairs for Chelsea with some outrageous purchases and players which is not very useful.
The era of Abramovich was golden for Chelsea and things got worse and worse since his departure which was humiliating by politicians in reality. Although the new owners have money but they fail to pick the right coach and subsequently the right players to boost the team results. It was like a sinking boat with the departure of top players and the administration..Meanwhile, there is a team called Liverpool that used also to be a top one, but this season it shows a nightmarish results, they even got kicked from FA Cup by Brighton.
Could they guarantee any European competitions spot for the next season seriously?
We know that several players were recruited because of their interest rather than seeing other potential, and we even know that he really wanted Ronaldo at that time, even though the staff and coaches always opposed him.
He has to start to behave better because this really depends on the future of the club.
Yes, I was amazed by Brighton's fighting spirit. They performed so superbly that liverpool had to fail to advance to the next round. Liverpool are really very bad, even Gakpo has not been able to be a solution for Nunez who is still difficult to adapt to the EPL. Liverpool even struggled on the left side, Mitoma the midfielder from Japan amazed me. He played well, the way he dribbled the ball made it seem like it was sticking with his feet. In fact the statistics he is very good 14 times played in the EPL and scored 4 goals.
Brighton Example club Play as a Team and exploit the potential of players. In fact, they were very confident when facing Liverpool, it was very visible, starting from Brighton's statistics, which were top, superior to the number of shots, shots on goal and ball possession.Fake shoot and the ball is still in the air and goes straight to goal. In a split second you can think, you don't rush to make a decision to shoot right away, you even have good ball control. This is Mitoma if consistent, her future will truly shine
If Chelsea really decide upon changing their manager by the end of the season then I would like to see Tuchel back in the team. Because Chelsea were already strong under his management until this season. He was sacked for some other reasons related to the team's visions. Maybe it isn't sensible to expect him back in the team after this happened. But he is one of the most fitting coaches for this team. Or some other solid manager like Zidane would be lovely to see but to be realistic I don't expect him to come here.
As for their Fulham match I will be expecting Chelsea to defeat them this time. The previous match between them was really unlucky but Chelsea must have learned a lot from it.

liverpool and chelsea are 2 elite EPL teams who are experiencing a period of crisis, without any overhaul it will be difficult for them to get up and return to the top flight
Chelsea are currently undergoing an overhaul of their team, they have bought around 6-7 players in this January winter transfer window and they are currently still chasing Enzo Fernandez, and if the reports we are getting lately are true, then they might prolly be close to signing the Argentine midfielder, the thing about Chelsea's overhaul is that it started pretty late, and we might begin to see its effects next season, though i personally think they would have to change their manager as well (even if he was just recently appointed).Having said that, Liverpool are in all sorts of problems and to decipher a solution is quite difficult, i think the club has to spend big in the summer, they have an aging midfield and a dearth in prolific attackers, as both Salah and Nunez are misfiring, the club has to invest in quality players in the summer. It could also be a possibility that after all the good things Klopp has done, his time might prolly be up at Liverpool as he has failed to lift the players this season.
I think it's impossible for Arsenal not to prioritize the FA Cup. Throughout the club's history, Arsenal have won the FA Cup trophy 14 times and are listed as the most successful team in the FA Cup. After being eliminated in the FA Cup, Arsenal can focus more on the Premier League, Arsenal have collected 50 points from 19 matches, Arteta must strategize well ahead of the next match to stay away from the threat of Manchester City who are below him by five points.
Meanwhile, in the Europa League competition, Arsenal are still in the ranks of the seeded teams in the competition. The impressive results that have always been inscribed in the Premier League have made Arsenal have the opportunity to step into the final round which is very open.

Yes. it seems, Arsenal did not prioritize to win the FA CUP trophy. if so, Arteta will play his main starting line-up against Manchester City. after all, Arsenal have enough time off if only to focus on Premier League competition matches. however Arteta seems to prefer playing other players than, Odegaard, Martinelli, B.white, Salaiba, who sat on the bench.
maybe the scenario, Arteta prefers to study City's weaknesses when they meet in the FA CUP match. that doesn't mean either, Arsenal don't want the FA CUP trophy, it's just that their priority is the Premier League. plus, in the next three weeks Arsenal have a game against City at their own headquarters, Emirates Stadium. to be sure, Arsenal will focus on getting full points before meeting Manchester City later.at the very least, Arsenal must conquer Everton and Brentford to widen the points gap from their competitors.
previously brighton managed to beat liverpool with a score of 3-0 and yesterday something embarrassing happened again and brighton managed to beat liverpool even though with a narrow score of 2-1 in the FA cup

The win over Liverpool by Brighton was amazing. I had thought that Liverpool would desperately want a win to have a comeback and to somewhat have a revenge as Brighton had won the match when they had last met. And now, Brighton has humiliated Liverpool again, winning the game and keeping a clean sheet too.
Liverpool is certainly not at its best aster letting go of some key and major players on their squad. And it’s telling on them as they’ve lost games they ordinarily wouldn’t be losing. This is football, we win some, we lose some.

Liverpool's match against Brighton was below average, Brighton outshined them, the way Salah was running yesterday proves what Klopp said that Mane's absence from the squad has affected Salah this season, the new signee Gapko played well though, maybe we will soon see their impact very soon but to be sincere, Liverpool is clearly not on form right now.

We all know that Man United is still better than Crystal Palace, so it's only natural that Man United is considered the favorite because they do have a bigger chance to win and moreover they will be playing at home. However, Man United still cannot underestimate Crystal Palace because of their first meeting, Crystal Palace managed to steal 1 point. Besides that in their last 2 games, Man United failed to win. Hopefully, this doesn't affect their performance.
Manchester United may be would be hard to beat Crystal Palace because several Manchester United players may be absent in that match.At least 9 players are known to have suffered injuries or other reasons, including Christian Eriksen, Diogo Dalot, Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial and others. Obviously not an easy matter, but I know the quality of Manchester United on paper is much better than Crystal Palace.
The home win was much to be expected, and here Manchester United should be the favorites to win the match. At home, Manchester United have won 7 of their 9 matches the other 1 each having lost and drawn. So it's normal that Manchester United is the favorite, even though Manchester United lost 5 of the 6 points contested in their last 2 matches.

Brighton is playing really well in the Premier League this year as well. It had been a bad match for Liverpool and they must have been very sad to leave the field in defeat. This year has been a bad year for Jurgen. I don't know if the Liverpool coaching staff can complete this year. They have suffered more defeats than ever before. There must be someone responsible here.
The match that seems to be getting a lot of attention is the Man City vs Tottenham match. But I personally am also very interested to see how Chelsea is developing after bringing in a lot of new players. The Chelsea vs Fullham match will be a test for Chelsea. whether Chelsea will return to a positive path or vice versa. Graham Potter will obviously be more nervous in this fight. Because this is also related to his reputation.

Crystal Palace at least tried their best and tried to give their best to be able to beat Manchester United. Even though the final result was a draw, you need to know that in February Crystal Palace will meet Manchester United again and this possibility will be a very good match because it will snatch victory from both sides.Man united is at the better side of winning the match because they are playing at home and are also stronger than Crystal Palace, so it wouldn't be easy for Crystal Palace to penetrate their defense.

Football is about to lose, win or draw. Once MU loses against a big team and ten hag has another chance again to bring the team to the win.
Im so glad to see that there are huge improvements happened with mu under ten hag.

I agree with the consensus that Arsenal is more focused on winning the Premier League or at least being among the top 5 teams. This is the reason why I think they under so much pressure and why being knocked out of the FA didn't hurt them. And if at the end they end up not winning or being in the top 4 position it will be heart breaking both for them , their fans and non-fans who are presently rooting for them.
