1/3 of all games played and it seems Arsenal, Man. City and Liverpool are very close not only on where they are at the table, but also regarding performances throughout the 13 games.

Do you think this will be a tight race all the way to May?

If not which team do you expect to fall out of the title race and why?

(fair to say Villa and Spurs are also up there but IMO both lack squad depth and cannot see them as title challengers come May)

    It doesn’t currently look like every lost point could derail a title push in the spring, which will be a relief to City and Liverpool fans especially as those seasons where even an away draw against a tricky side might cost you were frankly brutal.

    Those City and Liverpool teams were too complete and had no weaknesses in their system. The current top 3 all new 1-3 more signings before they’re at that level imo.

    That said, it’s really, really rare for three teams to go right to the wire. One or two normally drop off come the run-in.

    Completely agree and think Liverpool being in the Europa league will be tricky.

      agree with all of this besides city needing more players to be complete. They’ve got a second string team that would still compete for the title, unfortunately

        They have elite players on the bench but its not a deep bench.

        agree with all of this besides city needing more players to be complete.

        Kovacic is a tier below Gundogan, Nunes and Rico Lewis are even further back. Kalvin Philips is on temporary retirement.

      Kind of crazy to think this current City team isn’t as good as previous ones in the league st least. It’s somehow true but they’re still clear of everyone haha.
