Although Manchester United spent a lot of money in the summer window to introduce Sancho, Varane and C Ronaldo and other tough players, the paper strength has fully qualified for the championship, but due to the limited ability of head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, coupled with the team's run-in has not yet matured, so with the deepening of the season, this season's Premier League has formed a situation of Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea, the three giants of manchester city, Liverpool and Chelsea, Manchester United can only helplessly compete with other teams for the fourth.
Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea are very balanced, but Guardiola has not been able to get Tottenham's striker Harry Kane after losing the top scorer Aguero, and the strength of the team will undoubtedly be affected, which also gives Liverpool and Chelsea hope. Manchester City did face some challenges at the start of the season, but Guardiola is worthy of being the top coach in football today, and the frontless team is also playing very slippery.
In the 17th round of the league, Guardiola continued to use the frontless line in the match against Leeds United, Sterling and Jesus were pressed on the bench for the entire game, but this did not affect Manchester City's strong attacking power, with the excellent performance of de Bruyne and other players, the Blue Moon finally won 7:0 against the opponent, won seven consecutive league games, and is currently 4 points ahead of Liverpool in the table and 5 points ahead of Chelsea under the premise of 1 more game.
City's strength will undoubtedly make Liverpool and Chelsea deeply uneasy, and if they are not careful, they may not be able to catch up with the pace of the Blue Moon. Both Klopp and Tuchel are well aware that it is unlikely that Guardiola will be expected to make a mistake in the league, after all, Manchester City are perfect at both ends of the road, which is evident from the statistics. In the first 17 league rounds, Manchester City have scored a total of 40 goals, second only to Liverpool's 45 goals.
In terms of the number of goals conceded, Manchester City only has a small number of goals, which is the smallest of all Premier League teams, which means that the match against Manchester City, let alone win, even scoring goals will become very difficult. Chelsea, by contrast, have been less stable, with the last few Premier League games being challenged and the number of winless games starting to increase, which is not a good phenomenon, and if this continues, Tuchel may have withdrawn from the title race early.
There are many reasons for Chelsea's ups and downs, injuries and weakness of the center position can not be ignored, so Tuchel is looking forward to being strengthened in the winter window, of which the defender, back and center position are the focus, so that Tuchel has enough confidence to compete with Guardiola for the league title, of course, some unsuitable players can also be sent away in the winter window, so as to be able to raise more reinforcements, I believe Abu will meet some of Tuchel's requirements.
Liverpool's recent momentum is also very good, achieving 5 consecutive league wins, but in terms of dominance of the game is still not as good as Manchester City, more importantly, the main players of teams such as Salah and Mane need to miss a month or so this season to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Klopp, if you want to compete with Manchester City for the league title, then It is also imperative for Liverpool to strengthen the attacking line in the winter window. Even so, judging by the current situation, there is a good chance that Guardiola's Manchester City will have a final laugh.
