Premiership review 1st December 2013

In yesterday's premiership matches Hull beat Liverpool by three goals to one. It was the first time that Hull had beaten Liverpool.

I was surprised by the result,  I thought that Liverpool where serious contenders for the title this year. So to lose like that makes me think that they are not ready to win the title. 

Chelsea beat Southampton by three goals to one and that has helped them consolidate their second place. Any slip ups from Arsenal and Chelsea will be ready to pounce. 

Manchester City beat Swansea City by three goals to nil and that was a good win against a very good Swansea City team. 

Tottenham and Man United drew two all and to be fair both teams need a win. So I would have thought they would view this draw as a loss. 

Tottenham's manager Andres Villas Boas has been really feeling heat. He his now demanding he get more respect. But I understand how the fans feel.

 

He has spent over a hundred million pounds, so ninth in the league must feel like a real kick in the teeth for some fans. 

Sometimes managers don't really get the pain that fans go through and to see your team languishing in ninth place must be a little painful. 

So Arsenal are still top of the league by four points but there is still plenty of football to play.
