Arsenal 43pts from 16 games is very impressive. Only three teams previously have equalled or bettered that since 92 and all three went on to win the league.

If they can come out of the next half a dozen or so games unscathed, during which time they have Newcastle (H), Spurs (A), Man United (H) and Man City (H), then they really will be on for the title
Odegaard for £30million was outrageous at the time and looks worse for Madrid with every passing week.
Every club has good and bad transfers though. They paid 72m for Nicolas Pepe and sold Emi Martinez for 15m.
Edu coming in was a turning point for the club though, completely changed their transfer strategy and they've generally bought really well since his arrival. Saliba 27m, Gabriel 25m, Ramsdale 25m, Zinchenko 30m, Ben White 50m also looks a great deal now.

City's next 3 games are Chelsea and United away and Spurs (who are their bogey side) at home so the next few weeks will also make or break their title hopes.

I suspect that it was with this run of matches in mind that the likes of Foden, Cancello, Bernardo Silva and Walker didn't start the immediate matches following the World Cup

Very bizarre from Guardiola yesterday. City didn't really play well at all and once Everton equalised (64 minutes) you'd have thought it was inevitable he'd make changes. Yet he somehow left it until the 87th minute to bring on Foden, Alvarez and Gundogan. Absolutely no idea what he was seeing that he felt there was no need to change things.
City are going to find it tough now if they drop many more points but the bookies still make them slight favourites.

Must be delighted with our win over Pompey too
You'll enjoy it!
Proper jealous
Still half an hour to go!
Shame for a 1st v 2nd clash to be like that.
But showed tonight why they're there
But they do have a great defense it must be said.
