William Gallas Stripped Of Captaincy

Arsenal vs Manchester City. This should be an easy match in normal circumstances but seeing how the Gunners capitulated against Aston Villa 0-2, I am not so sure of their chances. It was all the more disappointing after a confidence-boosting win over Manchester United and a rousing victory by the reserves in the Carling Cup.

Even Arsene Wenger, who rarely gives the other team credit, admitted that Villa deserved to win. Hopefully, Wenger can solve Arsenal’s defensive breakdowns and inability to generate consistent pressure on the opposing team.

Right now that Arsenal is in a bit of a crisis, losing four games in their first 13 matches, I am glad William Gallas has been stripped of the captaincy and he is not likely to feature against Manchester City. Well, Gallas was never a popular choice for me.

Arsenal must rebound with a victory against City, else they’ll risk falling even further off the pace. Losing Theo Walcott to a shoulder injury, and not having the suspended Cesc Fabregas will compromise their position, but Emmanuel Adebayor is back.

Manchester City would love to have Arsenal’s problems. Despite spending millions on Robinho, Vincent Kompany, Jo, and Shaun Wright Phillips, the club has been in a free-fall. City have not won since October 26, and have lost 5 out of their last 8 matches, including losses to Wigan, Bolton, and Middlesbrough, as well as blowing a late lead against Liverpool.

Mark Hughes got the vote of confidence from the board, but it doesn't mean much. Manchester City desperately need a good result here, or else they they’ll have to start worrying about relegation (they’re only 3 points clear of last place West Brom).

Aston Villa vs Manchester United Preview

Much has been said about it being too early to be out of the title race in November, mostly in relation to Arsenal. I argue that while mathematically that may be true, if you look at the recent history of points required to win the PL and points gaps that have been bridged, there are positions you can find yourself in that suggest it is very unlikely you can overcome the deficit, even if still only in November.

I suggested two weeks ago that the Man Utd game was a must win for Arsenal if they were to stay in the race and they duly delivered, only to put themselves out of contention with a loss at home to Villa last week.

The stats I used were the following (now updated for the Villa game): With 16 points dropped in their first 13 games, and assuming that you need a minimum of 86 points to win the title, Arsenal can only afford to drop 12 points in their remaining 25 games to have any realistic hope of lifting the title.

That would be 20 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats. Based on their form so far this season you would have to say that’s too big an ask. But enough about Arsenal, what of this weekend? With Chelsea at home to Newcastle and Liverpool hosting Fulham you would have to expect that the top two will record maximum points, all of which means that the Utd/Villa game is a huge fixture, particularly for Utd.

Liverpool 2-0 Bolton

If recent Premier League results are anything to go by, long-deprived Liverpool fans could finally celebrate a bountiful year of prestigious titles. More importantly, it is to fill the trophy cabinet with their first Premier League title since 1990.

In a refreshing change this season, Benitez has refrained from tinkering with his squad - the rotation policy was discarded in favor of keeping the team spine together and results so far have been favorable.

Liverpool maintained pressure on their rivals with a 2-0 victory over Bolton at Reebok Stadium on Saturday. It was actually more sweat than inspiration and Bolton aided the chore with their insipid performance.

The match started off with a dominant Liverpool, intent to show that the midweek defeat by Tottenham in the Carling Cup was no major setback.
