The distances are getting bigger with teams below day by day.

Currently;

Arsenal are ahead of Aston Villa & Manchester City by 7 points.

That duo is also 7 points ahead of Liverpool.

There are still 16 more match weeks to go of course. But this kind of gaps are at least giving us some ideas about how the season could end. As long as there is no consistency I don't think any team out of top 4 now will be able to enter there anymore.

But for the champion of the season it is early to make sure. Because you know Arsenal... They are always likely to surprise us by handing the lead to Manchester City.

Lot of drama is expected before the season concludes. Quite alright, Arsenal is a known bottler for like three consecutive seasons now but I don't expect them to bottle it again this time. They're leading the table with Seven points with sixteen games to round up the season, they're to lose like three games and either Manchester city or Aston villa have to win that three games to catch up with Arsenal. It sounds easy thou but despite the weakness of Arsenal recently, I don't expect them to just let seven points slide away like that. As for Liverpool and other teams below them, they're not tittle contenders but want to survive in the top four to play in the champions league next season.

I dont know how every single team wants to not be the champion this year,in this round every single top team drop points,and most of them against shit teams from much lower positions or even between the most weaker teams in the league, Aston Villa had the chance to be the lonely runner up and they failed and played really abd against Everton, City lose the derby, Arsenal drops points against Forest, come on.....

Emery says this but he is just humble honestly. They are definitely contenders to be in top 5. Who is better than them now? Manchester United? Liverpool? Or Chelsea? None of them is having a better season.

Aston Villa are even keeping up with Manchester City as well recently. Correct me if I'm wrong. Because you also see how bad results they have got on the recent weeks and Guardiola still can't find a way to fix it.

While he is right that they are not consistent enough, it's way too humble to say that they are not top five team in the league right now. They are literally third place right now and yes maybe Liverpool will pass them eventually but doubt anyone could. At the moment as third place they are 7 points ahead of fourth place, that means the fifth place United would need to get 8 more points than Villa to be in the same place, along with Liverpool and that would still make Villa fifth, not sixth.

And if you ask me if this is possible I mean getting 7 and 8 points to top Aston villa I will whole heatedly tell you it is very possible because there is still a lot of games to be played and Aston villa can go on a losing streak while Liverpool and Manchester united can go on a winning streak after all nothing is impossible in the game of football right?. If Nothingham forest could stay in the premier league second and first position for sometime and yet don't qualify for champions league then what else can not be possible considering nothingham forest form that season it was really a shame.

Arsenal dropping points against Forest was definitely the shocking result of the weekend, where they could have gone 9 points ahead of second place. The league title is really theirs to lose.

I am very disappointed with this result because my bet lost and I really did not expect how Aston Villa could lose at their own home, especially since they were highly motivated to close the point gap and compete for the title.
Last week was really strange, the top 3 teams failed to get full points, it was truly a big surprise in my opinion.

Really disappointed Aston Villa can't take advantage after Manchester City losing three points and Arsenal just getting one points this week, losing 0-1 from Everton at home match is very disappointed result and has bigger chance for Aston Villa moving to 2nd place but failure after defeating by Everton.
Next games, Aston Villa will away against Newcastle United and must get three points if won't loss chance with the top 2nd position and pressure Arsenal still not get any pressure yet between from Manchester City and Aston Villa due both teams not get three points in this week. Is season for Arsenal winning premier league tittle? indeed not consistent but the competitor teams playing poorly.

Aston Villa football team was not bad in this match because their shots were more in this match and these were 18 and 5 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was great in this match which was 63 percent in this match and passes of that team were more in this match which were 432 . The pass accuracy of that team was great in this match and that was 90 percent in this match and yellow card was one in this match . The shots of Everton football team were less in this match which were 9 and  4 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was less in this match. The passes of Everton football team were less in this match which were 265 .
