It is true that in the last few seasons there was relatively fierce competition for the Premier League title, but if we look at last season specifically, it felt as if seemed to be more fierce than it actually was. Manchester City makes the impression that they have reserves in the tank which they can dip into if necessary. Arsenal didn't have those reserves and started to tumble towards the end of the season whereas Manchester City just had a winning streak and put the nail in the coffin. Only then did they tie and lose one game at the end because they knew they can afford it.

This leads me to the question which team has the most reserves that they can activate if necessary? Arsenal this time? I feel they are not that well equipped with reserves. Liverpool has reserves because they are playing without so many superstars at the moment and they are all coming back. And Manchester City always have reserves. It is as if it's part of their nature as a team. Just look at Haaland and how the timing is for him to get into peak shape. It look as if they are just getting started.

Well, football gets interesting when the competition between the teams in the league thrives and is always at top level. One league that hasn’t failed to beat any of that expectations is the English Premier League. This league happens to be one very great league that the competition in the league is making us consider these clubs as real top. The competition in this league is usually fierce that you can’t easily decide the league winner so early till maybe around 3-5 Gameweeks to go.

Last season we saw one very big dramatic turnaround in the form for Manchester City who were able to overcome Arsenal who held on to top of the league for a very long time pnly to fall off at some point due to inhury crisis. Well this kind of situation tells you that the league isn’t a joke as you can even see how different the clubs from these league plays when they participate in Europe. Well this season, we’re having a 3 horse race and it’s seeming like none is ready to give up or slow down anytime soon. We just have about 1-3 points separating these 3 clubs and they’re all having similar goal differences.

For me, I think I’ll be rooting for Liverpool to win this league even if not fir anything but to help end the full dominance of pep’s Manchester City. Pep is really a genius and you can see how he’s team has been performing since they got all their players back to the team and you can even see a very strong reserve bench for this team. The power and determination of this Manchester City team is a scare to Arsenal who might not be able to hold on for long. For Liverpool, I think with most of her star players out, they still have a chance if these current boys can be able to hold on and maintain the victories till the stars are back. I have high hopes on Liverpool and will sure be banking on them to give Jurgen the best farewell.
