It's true, Lukaku has really been a very good reinforcement for Chelsea, I honestly could not imagine that he would move to Chelsea... But this machine sweeps away everything in its path, despite the fact that at Inter he got a bit lost and acted strangely. It's even difficult to push him away, a big man, in a word... Maybe they will quietly take the cup this year without any fuss, who knows...
He is a good player but I do not think he will be the difference for Chelsea. Manchester City and Liverpool are to strong teams that have better players then Chelsea. Liverpool have a very good striker Firminho or Jota and have been scoring high amounts this season. Manchester City do not have a good striker but I think they have enough depth that it will be ok for them. Chelsea are good but Lukaku is to inconsistent we saw it on the weekend where they struggled to win and Lukaku missed some easy chances.

I wonder how long these two teams will last. Chelsea in first place and Liverpool without losses.
It will last for a while and actually the gap between the 1st until the 6th currently isnt that much
In principle both teams are strong, of course, but if about Liverpool I have no doubts, but with Chelsea somehow different. Do not you think that this season they are like dark horses?
Im not sure wether you do understand the meaning of the word 'dark horse' or not but Chelsea is not a dark horse, they always have the potential to win the league. If you are looking for a team with the potential to be the dark horse of this league then its either Brighton or Brentford at the moment. Both team had solid results so far despite that the overall team's quality is lower compared to most of the EPL team
Xisco Munoz who was appointed in December last year and helped Watford to promote in to Premier League has been sacked and now former Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri who helped Leicester to win their maiden PL in 2014 has now been appointed as new Watford manager and has already signed 2 year deal. Watford's management seem restless but they are doing decent IMO.
Anyway Xisco really did a great job and hope he finds a club to manage soon.

Mo Salah scored a great goal, but the two teams agreed to a draw. Although Manchester City seemed to want to win the game more, they fell behind twice in the match. If they had taken the lead, maybe the match would have ended differently. I don't think the two managers were upset about the draw. Both teams made very few substitutions, I don't get it. Liverpool is still the only team undefeated but Chelsea is the new leader.

In principle both teams are strong, of course, but if about Liverpool I have no doubts, but with Chelsea somehow different. Do not you think that this season they are like dark horses? They shoot and shoot, but they do not notice and do not talk about them much. This year I would say that Chelsea will be even more stable than last year. Lukaku was a real improvement, he is a key player to complete the squad and fill the gaps that were still existent when Tuchel overtook the team. Now they have a very balanced squad, which you can see in the style they bring onto the pitch. Strong defense is paramount to them, and when the defense is all set go into the offense with full power, and that offense is really strong now.
It seems that this draw was beneficial only for the other contenders of the title and not Liverpool or Man City. Besides that, it was a very entertaining game, with lots of goals and great rhythm. This season's title race is by far the most exciting of the past years and even if it's early, I believe that we will have a tight and thrilling end of season... 
It's in Chelsea's favor with a 1-2 point difference from the other clubs, the other challengers would of course be happy with Liverpool and Mancity's draw but it was a quality game with lots of interesting games.This season will be a little different from the previous one, which is far from the first standings, but this season does look tight from the start, it is likely that until the end of the season the other team challengers will also maintain and also provide quality games throughout this season.
Actually manchester city played quite well in the first half and they were able to trouble Liverpooldefense through Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden but the poor finishing made manchester city unable to score in the first half, I think guardiola was smart enough to see Liverpool weakness that relied on milner as a fullback right and they were more focused on attacking through the left flank and to be honest I think milner should have got a red card in that game, for committing a pretty tough foul on Bernardo Silva in the 74th minute.
Guardiola is an experienced coach, he knows where the weakness of the opponent. And he made his game plan accordingly. The match was drawn 2-2. I am satisfied with the results. My guess was the match would be a draw. Liverpool broke Manchester City's strong defense and scored two goals, proving they are one of the most deserving contenders for the title this season. They will fight hard for the title unless their key players get injured.
True bro, guardiola experience so far, of course, we can't doubt anymore in coaching a club, and he is really observant in making substitutions of players who don't have a big contribution in the match, but to be honest I'm more hopeful if Manchester City can win the match , so that the top three clubs will be very tight in the competition to be able to become the half-season champion
It's not that easy to beat Liverpool especially when playing at home
So far Liverpool are the only team unbeaten in the EPL of course they won't let this record just disappearI think Man City were lucky to draw they should have lost, Kevin Bruyne was lucky to equalize the score in the 81st minute. In such conditions, Man City players should go down, Unfortunately no.
Right now we can't predict which team will win the title. The competition in the Premier League is the most compared to other leagues. However, after 7 matches, looking at the points table, it is seen that Arsenal is far behind. They can't even be in the top 5 of the table. It is hard to predict that how Tottenham will perform in upcomming match. But I am optimistic about this team. I think they can be in the top 5 teams. Although Manchester United seem strong, their performance is not yet stable. The most stable team is Chelsea.
Spurs are playing like Arsenal atm and Arsenal beat Tottenham by a big amount last game they played. Arsenal and Tottenham are probably going to finish around 7th/8th unless they both get new managers. They both have very good players that should be competing for the top 4 but the managers are the ones which are stopping them from doing that. Tottenham do have issues with Harry Kane atm because of the failed transfer to Manchester City. Harry Kane claims that Levy had a agreement that he would let him leave to Manchester City 2 years ago and that is why he did not show up to training for a while after it failed. The players around Harry Kane look like they are affected by this and that is why they are not performing to their best. I think Tottenham have the better players and the better manager and I expect them to finish ahead of Arsenal even if Arsenal beat them easily recently. Tottenham have had a lot of injuries remember that this Tottenham beat Manchester City a couple of weeks ago 1-0 and looked like they could have scored more. The Tottenham team is good enough. They have a lot of talented players on their team. Especially Heung Min Son and Harry Kane are world-class players. They are both out of form now, so Tottenham's performance is poor now. The team relies heavily on these two players to score. If they score a goal, it will be very difficult for Tottenham to win every match. I don't want to compare Tottenham with Arsenal. Tottenham is in a better position than Arsenal, and Tottenham's gameplay is better than Arsenal's.

they did not disappoint, a fair draw between them and four goals scored, this how we wanna see big teams play against each other, both of them were trying to win even in the last minutes and we've see some chances to score from both sides, standings are becoming tighter and tighter.
More precisely, it was disappointing for his supporters because City yesterday lost to PSG, then faced with LIV they were held to a draw. Of course it is a task for City going forward that they have to raise the level to be in this ranking. Given dean's week they must also prepare a player who is in super form and avoid a yellow card for the winger.
The match between Liverpool and Manchester City was a very enjoyable match. If a match was chosen to show why the premier league is the best league, this could be it. Manchester City were very effective in the first half, but they could not play such a game in the second half. Liverpool scored a fantastic goal with Mohamed Salah. The match ended in a draw. 2-2 did not satisfy both teams.
A satisfactory result for both teams. Both teams are happy to share points. If Liverpool had won this match, they would be at the top of the points table now. Now Chelsea is at the top of the table with 16 points in 7 matches. Liverpool is second in the table with 15 points. Manchester City, Manchester United, Everton, and Brighton are at the table with equal points. Which team will win the title this season will probably remain uncertain until the last match of the season.

It's scary to think that the race to the title this season is already this tight after just seven games.
... The real excitement started in the second half. Liverpool's contribution to the game changed the way the game goes to. Thanks to their big effort and scoring the first goal of the game, we watched an unforgettable game.
It was like watching a basketball game. Of course it's not the same in terms of score but you know what I mean. LFC switched it up and Man City responded well. There were a few games like this in the past years between big clubs but you're right that this one will be remembered and replayed in the years to come.

Guardiola can build up very good tactics for clubs he manages but his problem is he is very unstable with his decision for important matches. He want to find perfectness and sometimes he makes weird decisions for important matches.If he succeeds, we will call him a genius with such decisions. Finally Pep failed in Champions League from Bayern to Manchester City. In the last season, he chose Gundogan and that can be reasons why Manchester City lost that final match.
In the match yesterday, Manchester City have some great chances when they attracted Liverpool players in one swing and sudden have shots in another swing. They played very smoothly and Liverpool scored two goals with great passing and shot from Salah. Without two moments of Salah, Manchester City would win the match.

When we check first seven weeks it's a balanced league, none of these teams dominated. Manchester City didn't start so good, maybe if they won Southampton game it could be seen different. Chelsea won important games but they failed in two big matches, this raise questions in their performance in the long run. Liverpool didn't lose but their Brentford draw was an unexpected point loss. I guess these three teams will fight for the championship this season. I don't think Manchester United, Tottenham and Arsenal will be in the discussion this year. Some people expect too many things from Manchester United after Ronaldo came but they lost important points on relatively easy games. It's too early to talk about but this is my impression in first seven weeks.
