“Chelsea’s Games Get Difficult” – Paul Merson on Their Tough Run
Arsenal legend Paul Merson has shared his latest prediction for the Premier League top four, leaving Chelsea out once again.
Liverpool currently lead the table with 13 points, followed by Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, and Manchester City. However, Merson believes Liverpool will go on to win the league. He sees Arsenal finishing second, Manchester City securing third place, and Newcastle United claiming the final Champions League spot.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Merson acknowledged the competition in the race for the top four, mentioning Fulham and Aston Villa as potential contenders if they can build momentum.
“Chelsea were seventh earlier in the week. They beat Southampton, and Forest couldn’t get past Arsenal. Now, Forest face Man City next, while Chelsea play Leicester at home. If Chelsea win and Forest lose, Chelsea move above them with 10 games left. But Chelsea’s schedule gets tough after that,” he explained.
Merson also hinted at a possible surprise in the top four battle. When asked which team could shake things up, he initially backed Bournemouth but admitted their recent performances had changed his mind.
“If you had asked me last Saturday, I’d have said Bournemouth for sure. They had Wolves at home and Brighton away—I expected them to get at least four points. But they lost both. Now, I’d say Newcastle are more likely to take Forest’s spot,” he added.
Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on his son’s future and football career after watching his training sessions.
He spoke about his 16-year-old son “He’s a good kid. Honest, a good kid. The others are tougher. The ones I have at home, the younger ones. This one is no problem. The others…”
“When I was his age, he was a bit bigger and stronger. I was smaller. I believe he will be bigger than me in size. The hunger is the most challenging aspect.”
Footballers João Pedro and Moisés Caicedo have shared their thoughts on the recent transfer of former Brighton player Danny Welbeck.
It can be noted that Welbeck recently completed a move to Stamford Bridge. Pedro shared “This will mark the third occasion we have played together, and I believe, just as he did for me previously, he will extend his support to everyone in the squad. Danny embodies that spirit; he is incredibly helpful and genuinely wishes the best for everyone around him and for the team.
“It is well-known that he is an exceptional player. I am eager to play alongside him once more, and I believe he will be a tremendous asset to our group.”
Real Madrid player Vinícius Júnior has spoken about his contract and how things have been since discussions began.
He said “It’s gone very well, meeting the new coach and the new players and training very hard. Mourinho wants me to be as I’ve always been: happy, cheerful, and that I play my football.”
“We have to prepare physically so that during the season we have fewer injuries and we can count on everybody. Monday was a double session, Tuesday is one session. So let’s go. Today we did a bit of work in the gym and a short session to load our legs some more.”
