“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.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
French footballer Kylian Mbappé has spoken on which player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will score more goals at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It can be noted that the FIFA World Cup will begin on Thursday and will be co-hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
The player picked Lionel Messi to score more goals than Ronaldo during the tournament.
