Taking advantage of the break for international matches, when looking at the league table, do you see anything surprising?

Liverpool seems to be following the same rhythm as last season.
Man City seems to be experiencing the same instability they displayed last season.
Things continue to be tough for Man United, having won, lost, and drawn. Perhaps they'll improve?
Arsenal remains the same as ever, beating everyone except those ahead of them in the league table.
On the other hand, Chelsea seems to be in much better shape than last season. Winning the Club World Cup must have motivated them.

Manchester City looking like the team that's taking over Manchester United position of last season, lol. Well I know it wouldn't get to that but let's pause for a minute and imagine it happens. Tottenham has started off on a good note, let's see how they maintain this. Of course Liverpool hasn't disappointed, the are playing up to expectations judging from their seriousness in the transfer window. The season is still fresh with just 3 matches played yet, so for now, we can only speculate as usual.

This season is very competitive, and every team needs to sit up, this is one of the reason I love England premier League so much the competition is always high and this seasons competition will be more competitive a lot of clubs has spent money to buy very good players, so we should be expecting high level of competition in this premier League title race this season.
However as for Manchester city I believe they will do more better as Time goes on they have all the good players they need now and I trust the coach so much they will do better and I believe they will even be among top five in the League table this season but lifting the League title this season is something I don't think they can do it because of clubs like Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal in order for them to have a chance they need to improve more because if they continue with this kind of football they are playing it will be impossible for them to lift the league title.

The competitiveness in the English premier League has always been there, there is no doubt that about, but it is almost like reoccurring decimal when it comes to the clubs that dominates, you will see that there are likely some clubs that are going to dominate the first four positions as times goes on, also in the last 5 years, we've had the league being won by nearly just to clubs, Manchester city and Liverpool, this results tries to negate the fact that there's a high level of competition in the premier League. However the result you are currently seeing is what should be expected always at the beginning of every League season, with time, the men are going to be separated from the boys.
