Manchester City and Liverpool now have almost comparable strength so these two teams have the potential to compete for the Premier League title until the end of the season.
Arsenal has strength but they often cannot maintain consistency in their play, that's what makes me doubt them a little.
For Aston Villa, I think they are a surprise team and I am quite pessimistic that they will be able to compete at the top of the standings.
Obviously, with their current strength, Mancity and Liverpool are ranked higher than Arsenal and Aston Villa in the race to win the championship. But I believe things will not be that simple, especially this season when there is a strong rise of Aston Villa, not to mention there is still Tottenham, although in terms of squad depth, they cannot be compared with the remaining teams. However, we should remember that the Premier League is a tournament full of surprises.
Can anyone think that last season Mancity could win the championship after Arsenal dominated the top position for a long time? Arsenal still has their strength, this time they are having a crisis in attack when they cannot finish the match because they don't have a real goal scorer, but I believe when they can add one more quality striker like Ivan Toney, things might be brighter for them.
After Moh Salah absence due to injury, Manchester City has more opportunities to catch up with the 1 match postponed. 5 points is a bit tough but Liverpool also need to win every game without Moh Salah and in any case I think that's a difficult challenge. The rivalry between the two will continue until the end of the season, but if Manchester City has Haaland back in their squad, every match will automatically become easier. Because there is Kevin De Bruyne beside him to guard and ensure Haaland scores goals.
For Arsenal still can't join the title race, and I hope Arteta realizes that. It would be better for Arsenal to think of a way to maintain third position so that it is not stolen by Aston Villa, whose existence this season really needs to be watched out for.
