I wrote this text earlier than the Ipswich defeat however that simply elevates much more of what I say beneath. However simply take a look at the present Premier League desk and inform me that this isn’t one of many craziest first halves of season you could have witnessed up to now!?
Nottingham Forest are SECOND! Liverpool working away with it for now could be no shock, however they’ve actually had ZERO actual challengers.
Manchester Metropolis have been speculated to be these challengers, however Pep Guardiola determined to have the worst half of a season he has ever had as a supervisor and so they fell off, for now at the very least. Anybody fully writing off Metropolis could be a braver particular person than me.
Metropolis are again to fifth after a win on Sunday, however they have been all the way down to seventh earlier than that!
The opposite Manchester membership, what on earth is happening there? They have been all the way down to fifteenth within the league at one level and are solely 14th place now. Like Chelsea within the final couple of seasons, individuals have genuinely been talking about them getting relegated! Think about that?
Arsenal haven’t carried out in addition to they have been anticipated to both, and so they have some points and I get a way of issues not being as nice as they have been not too long ago at that membership proper now.
Bournemouth have appeared superb and they’re arising by the league too, at present in sixth place. I concern our recreation in opposition to them in a few weeks time.
Newcastle United at the moment are on a very good run after a poor begin, however they’re solely in seventh place.
Aston Villa, who I genuinely anticipated to on the very least be up within the high 5 or 6, are down in ninth.
I don’t even wish to go and look again at my league desk positions as a result of they are going to at present be horrendously out!
What’s going on? The fantastic thing about soccer, that’s what.
No one anticipated Chelsea to be the place we’re proper now both. I wrote not too long ago that for golf equipment like Chelsea, with different of the ‘large golf equipment’ dropping off proper now, there would by no means be a greater probability to genuinely do one thing this season. I feel among the ‘lesser’ golf equipment are even seeing this now and utilizing it as a motivation.
And as for Tottenham, they’re being Spursy [11th]….. Sufficient mentioned! Causes to smile although for certain!
Roll on the following half of the season, and I don’t know what to anticipate now! However for this reason all of us love this recreation a lot!
Let’s go…
