One of greatest Premier League title races ever?
That’s what football pundits are starting to think, as Arsenal made it eight wins in a row by beating Brentford on Saturday to go top of the table.It might just be for one day, with second-placed Liverpool hosting third-placed Manchester City on Sunday, but all the signs are that this is a battle that is going to go down to the wire.”There is still a long, long way to go but they [Arsenal] are right in the mix,” former Tottenham midfielder Jamie Redknapp said on Sky Sports.”This is one of the best Premier League seasons we’re ever going to have. Three amazing teams.”The win against the Bees means Arsenal are top on 64 points, one point ahead of Liverpool and two above Manchester City.

Arsenal did what they needed to do by beating Brentford on Saturday, but it was a very different type of win to what they have managed recently.They had won their four games prior to the visit of the Bees by four or more goals, but edged this one 2-1 thanks to Kai Havertz’s late winner.”After the 6-0, 5-“It was an emotional one that reminded me of last season when there was a bit of chaos and they had to win.”Is this team better than the one last year? In a lot of ways, yeah. Have they got more points than this time last season? No. But they certainly look a stronger team.”The three points put Arteta in a relaxed mood before Sunday’s huge game at Anfield between Liverpool and Manchester City.”It will be a great day to watch some fantastic games of football,” said Arteta.”It is not in my hands. It is a joy to be part of this league and a joy to be part of something special that we are trying to achieve.”How are things shaping up for the remaining games? Who has the tougher run-in? And who are the favourites to win the title?0, 4-1, 6-0, this was a very different game,” added Redknapp.
