Arsenal machine reminds me of Jose Mourinho's Chelsea, says Paul Merson as Gunners lead Premier League by four points

Paul Merson, a football expert and columnist, has shared his insights on key Premier League developments following recent fixtures, highlighting Arsenal's dominance, Manchester United's resurgence, Liverpool's issues, and the impressive performances of Bournemouth and Sunderland.

Merson asserts that Arsenal are unstoppable this season, describing them as an efficient machine with top-quality players, reminiscent of Jose Mourinho's Chelsea team that easily secured wins after taking the lead. He emphasizes their defensive strength and the psychological impact on opponents once they score.

Regarding Manchester United, Merson notes their recent revival under manager Ruben Amorim, suggesting a positive turnaround for the club. In contrast, he expresses concern for Liverpool, linking their struggles to comments made by Arne Slot about long-ball tactics, which may be affecting team dynamics.

Bournemouth and Sunderland have caused a stir by positioning themselves in the top four, earning praise for their unexpected success and challenging established teams. Merson points out that this has raised worries among some long-standing Premier League clubs about their future in the top flight, as the competition intensifies.
