In addition, I don't see there is another team that might be a strong opponent for Manchester City in the remaining of their matches this season.
Yes I admit that Manchester City is indeed a good and strong team, but there is a still have another strong team like Liverpool to shift to first position stand if Arsenal and the City will most likely don't have control on their match. Currently there are still 10 matches left for them, which I think anything possible will happen in the future, Liverpool, Arsenal, The city have a big chance to be champions for this session. when we look by experience, usually if one of their core players get the injured the team will feel lame, and usually in their performance will decline until the end of the session.
these three teams do have a chance to win the season title and I wouldn't be surprised if anyone would favor these three teams, but for some reason I still doubt Arsenal and exclude Arsenal from the list of candidates for the EPL title this season.
the reason is quite simple, since several seasons ago, Arsenal have always failed in terms of competing with popular teams towards the end of the season and the example that was clearly visible at the end of last season clearly showed that Arsenal was very close to getting the EPL title but in fact Arsenal failed to maintain their consistency and ended with failure.
and on the one hand I actually think that Liverpool can get this opportunity even though they still have to fight against Man City, but from experience I know that Liverpool is able to take advantage of the end of the season to finish at the top of the standings.
