I wrote this text earlier than the Ipswich defeat however that simply elevates much more of what I say under. 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 have got witnessed to date!?
Nottingham Forest are SECOND! Liverpool working away with it for now’s no shock, however they’ve actually had ZERO actual challengers.
Manchester Metropolis had been purported 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 utterly writing off Metropolis can be a braver particular person than me.
Metropolis are again to fifth after a win on Sunday, however they had been right down to seventh earlier than that!
The opposite Manchester membership, what on earth is occurring there? They had been right down to fifteenth within the league at one level and are solely 14th place now. Like Chelsea within the final couple of seasons, folks have genuinely been talking about them getting relegated! Think about that?
Arsenal haven’t carried out in addition to they had been anticipated to both, and so they have some points and I get a way of issues not being as nice as they had been not too long ago at that membership proper now.
Bournemouth have appeared superb and they’re arising via the league too, at present in sixth place. I concern our sport towards them in a few weeks time.
Newcastle United at the moment are on a superb 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 prime 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 great thing about soccer, that’s what.
No person 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 likelihood to genuinely do one thing this season. I believe a few of 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 positive!
Roll on the subsequent half of the season, and I don’t know what to anticipate now! However because of this all of us love this sport a lot!
Let’s go…
