Top Premier League Talking Points: Ruben Amorim’s Debut and Key Weekend Matches
The Premier League returns this weekend with massive fixtures that could shape the title race.
Let’s get straight into what’s happening across English football’s top flight.
Amorim Takes Charge at Old Trafford
Manchester United’s new boss Ruben Amorim faces his first test against Ipswich Town.
The 39 year old manager brings his signature 3-4-3 formation to United.
I expect this tactical shift to seriously shake things up at United.
They sit 13th right now and need quick results.
Arsenal’s Must Win Game
Arsenal are winless in four league games.
They face Nottingham Forest in what’s become a crucial match for their title hopes.
Martin Odegaard returns from injury which is good news.
But Leandro Trossard picked up a knock with Belgium.
Liverpool Leading the Pack
Liverpool hold a five point gap at the top heading into their Southampton clash.
They’re showing real consistency under Arne Slot this season.
The Reds look fresh after the international break.
City’s Shocking Slump
Man City have lost four straight games in all competitions.
It’s Pep Guardiola’s worst run as a manager.
They face Tottenham next in what feels like a must win game.
City can’t afford to fall further behind Liverpool.
Key Player Watch: Ollie Watkins
Watkins needs to be more clinical for Villa.
He’s missed 11 big chances this season – more than any other player.
But his England goal shows his quality is there.
Southampton’s Struggles
Russell Martin’s Southampton sit bottom of the table.
They’ve only got four points from 11 games.
The Saints face a brutal run of fixtures starting with Liverpool.
Martin needs results fast to keep his job.
