According to Jamie Redknapp, a former midfielder for Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal is the only standout team in the Premier League thus far this year. Nonetheless, he pointed out that because Manchester City and Liverpool are struggling along with every other team in the league, Chelsea has a chance to finish in a strong position. The former England midfielder made this statement after Arsenal’s successful games last weekend, which saw them defeat Burnley 2-0 and move six points clear of second-place Manchester City in the standings. Speaking on Sky Sports, Redknapp stated that Chelsea defeated Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as well. At least there’s a little flair and excitement when I look at Chelsea.Chelsea’s victory [against Tottenham] was simply too simple. “There is just one standout team in the Premier League this year, if we analyze it. Arsenal is significantly superior. The others are having difficulty. It is up for grabs for Chelsea this season because no one is noticing their consistency. They are self-assured, and watching Chelsea is thrilling. In the meantime, Manchester City overcame Bournemouth 3-1 to take second position in the table, six points behind league leaders Arsenal, while Liverpool defeated Aston Villa 2-0 on Saturday, seemingly returning to winning ways. In midweek, Chelsea and Tottenham will both be playing in the Champions League; Chelsea will go to Qarabag, while Tottenham will host Copenhagen.
