My people, e no fit pass without gist as Arsenal don land for top of the Premier League table as we dey enter Christmas period! Na wa! Dem just manage win Everton 1-0 last Saturday, and na Viktor Gyokeres wey do the magic with penalty wey he score.
No be small tension, o! Arsenal dey hold on top that title race with just two points ahead of Manchester City, but dem don sabi say dem wan hold this lead well well. Arsenal don get history wey dey follow dem anytime dem dey top like this, especially with three seasons wey dem don end up as runners-up. Na wetin dem go do different this time?
As e be now, Arsenal don only concede 10 goals this season, na im make dem defense dey sweet like sugar; and with all dem strikers dem wey dey back from injury, e dey look like say dem get good chance to carry di title this time.
But make we no forget Manchester City wey don dey trend like lion! Dem don gather 18 points from di last seven matches wey dem play, and na Erling Haaland dey lead dem cause dey as he don bag 19 goals from di 41 goals wey City score this season. E be like say only Haaland dey take shine, but we no fit forget say di whole team dey waka well too.
Dey say no wahala for Aston Villa because dem don surprise everybody. After a shaky start to di season, dem don dey find dem rhythm back and na dem dey keep pressure for di top three. Dem don manage bag 25 goals from just 17.08 expected goals (xG), and e no fit clear say dem fit become di dark horse wey everybody dey fear.
Abeg, make we keep eye for di next matches, especially between dem and Manchester United. If dem fit carry dat one, e go loud! All dis gists dey show say Premier League na true wahala zone, and any mistake fit turn champions to relegation frosh fast fast.
As di festive season dey bring cheer, make all di teams take their chance wey dey come o! Arsenal dey lead di charge, but as dem say, anything fit happen for football.
