Two players getting nothing but praise from their managers and the fans for their sparkling performances will probably go head-to-head when it is time to choose the player of the season. Arsenal wing Bukayo Saka and Manchester City’s goal-machine Erling Haaland have grabbed most of the headlines this season as their clubs go neck-and-neck for the league title.Conte and Tottenham turning toxic:
Quite how the players will respond if Conte is still at the helm after the international window is anyone’s guess and chairman Daniel Levy must be pondering whether they have a better chance of staying in fourth spot with the Italian gone.Manchester City’s Erling Haaland may be shredding the goal-scoring record books but if Arsenal win the title then young England winger Bukayo Saka will surely be in line to claim the prestigious Footballer of the Year award.
Eight points look like a daunting gap, even if Arsenal have played one game more, but if any team is capable of producing a devastating sprint finish to the season it is City.Chelsea manager Graham Potter is making progress on problems at one end of his team, but a familiar one remains at the other. Goals from Joao Felix and Kai Havertz, a penalty, in the 2-2 home draw with Everton took the Blues’ tally to six in three league games. They had scored only four in the previous nine.
