Premier League Round 7: Mikel Arteta’s Statement

Round 7 of the Premier League ended with Arsenal taking exclusive lead at the summit. At the same time, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Man City had mixed outcomes, causing a shift in the championship battle.

Following a dramatic comeback in the previous round, Arsenal maintained their consistent form by comfortably defeating West Ham. Goals from Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka secured the Gunners all 3 points, propelling them to first place with 16 points. Under Mikel Arteta’s guidance, Arsenal are demonstrating a balance between attack and defense while preserving an impressive unbeaten home streak.

With Liverpool slipping up at Stamford Bridge, Arteta’s squad officially took the lead in the standings, signaling that the Gunners are ready to emerge after years of waiting.

The highlight of the round was the fierce battle between Chelsea and Liverpool. Despite being favored, reigning champions Liverpool disappointed by losing 1-2. The Kop’s sole goal came from Cody Gakpo, but it wasn’t enough to earn points. This marked their third consecutive defeat across all competitions, placing heavy pressure on coach Arne Slot early in the season.

Conversely, Chelsea under coach Enzo Maresca are showing signs of improvement. The decisive goal by rising star Estevao helped The Blues claim a valuable victory, temporarily climbing to 7th place with 11 points. While not yet fully back, Chelsea is sending positive signals about their fighting spirit.

At Old Trafford, Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0, easing some pressure on coach Ruben Amorim’s team. Despite missing many chances, the Red Devils managed to secure victory and move into the upper half of the table for now. However, inconsistent performances still leave fans uneasy.

Tottenham found joy again after two consecutive draws by winning 2-1 at Leeds, maintaining their position in the top 3. Meanwhile, Manchester City defeated Brentford 1-0 thanks to Erling Haaland’s lone goal, continuing the close chase. At Everton’s ground, dark horse Crystal Palace’s unbeaten streak ended with a last-minute goal by Jack Grealish.

After 7 rounds, Arsenal leads with 16 points, one ahead of Liverpool, and Tottenham, Bournemouth, and Man City just 2 to 3 points behind. The race is growing increasingly exciting, with teams closely packed at the top. Although the season is still in its early stages, Arsenal has made a strong statement that they are the top contenders for this year’s title.
