Arsenal's Grip on Premier League Supremacy Tightens
The narrative that Arsenal are starting to "run away with" the Premier League title has been put firmly on hold. A weekend of thrilling victories, including a convincing 4-1 win over Tottenham at Emirates Stadium, has left Manchester City and Liverpool struggling to keep pace.
While some may have prematurely awarded the title to the Gunners, it's clear that Arsenal are in the driver's seat. With seven points separating them from their closest rivals, they've got a commanding lead to work with, particularly when considering the inconsistency shown by City throughout this season.
Arsenal's advantage lies not only in their superior squad depth but also in their ability to perform under pressure. The recent draw at Sunderland was a wake-up call, but it didn't dent their confidence – instead, they bounced back from that setback and showed no signs of jitters against Spurs.
The win over Tottenham marked a significant statement of intent from Arteta's side. Arsenal's 10-game winning streak before the Sunderland draw was a remarkable achievement, and they've only lost one match since then. Meanwhile, City have dropped as many points this season already – four more than all of last term – suggesting their title hopes may be waning.
While it's impossible to predict the remainder of the campaign with certainty, there are valid reasons why Arsenal appear almost unbeatable right now. Their ability to score from open play, coupled with a stingy defence that hasn't conceded many goals, makes them a formidable force in the league.
Of course, nothing is ever certain in football. Injuries can happen, teams may rally for a run-in, or unforeseen events might derail their title bid. However, based on current form, Arsenal look far from stoppable – and the evidence suggests that this might just be the season they finally break their 19-year wait for Premier League glory.

Arsenal is taking over the league and you can't stop it!"

Meanwhile, City's title hopes are... well, let's just say they're not exactly "mane"-ly defending their spot

Liverpool's struggles are like a bad case of "Monday blues"... 
and we all know how that ends

. I mean, seven points ahead of City and all that jazz, right? But what about those other teams that can still mount a comeback? Liverpool's been doing pretty well, you know? And City, as we've seen, are capable of dropping points... so maybe this title thing won't be as cut-and-dried as everyone thinks 
. Plus, Arteta's team is just too inconsistent, if you ask me 
... they can either win or lose by a load, but never really seem to find that sweet spot in between 
. Still, I wouldn't bet against them, not yet anyway... maybe?

. Reminds me, have u ever noticed how some plants can come back from being cut down? Like those Japanese maple trees that just regrow from like a tiny piece of root or something? Nature is so cool 
I think Arsenal's title bid is looking stronger than ever, but you can't rule out the other teams catching up yet 
. Still, it's hard to see anyone stopping them with how well they're playing right now 
meanwhile city is struggling to cope with Pep's tactics getting exposed
