Which Liverpool player can compete with Haaland?

The fight for consistency is the toughest of all, something Pep Guardiola, the most consistent with City of all the teams to have graced the Premier League in the last five years, has been fond of saying regularly and rightly so. Normally Liverpool and/or Chelsea have been his great adversaries, but this season, for now, there are two new opponents who promise to fight for the sceptre until the end.

The Sky Blues, who beat Wolverhampton 3-0 on Saturday to go top, saw Antonio Conte's Tottenham - who beat Leicester 6-2 on the same day - and above all Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, who beat Brentford, 3-0, on Sunday, maintain their grip at the top of the table, where the Gunners are in fact the leaders with 18 points, one more than the Citizens and Spurs.

The death of Queen Elizabeth led to the postponement of a number of matches involving City's rivals Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool, but while waiting for one or more of these giants to react, Pep Guardiola would do well not to take his eyes off Arsenal and Tottenham, two teams that have been strengthened in the transfer market and can fight for the league title until the end of the season.

It is true that the arrival of Erling Haaland at the Etihad Stadium has made the Celestes the team with the best strike rate in England and probably in the world, scoring 23 goals in the championship so far in 7 games.

But the truth is that, otherwise, Tottenham and Arsenal are very reliable, with the Gunners accumulating one more win than the reigning champions of England and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium side still unbeaten so far in the tournament, with 5 wins and 2 draws. We already know that Pep Guadiola's reliability on Premier League territory is very high, having won no less than four of his six appearances, but watch out for his two new opponents this season because they mean business.
