While the Blues have struggled to find their feet under new manager Mauricio Pochettino, the Gunners have been humming along very nicely under Mikel Arteta and look like genuine title contenders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one is going to win every single game in this league playing the way we have to every three days,\u201d said Arsenal manager Arteta. \u201cWe have to be consistent in what we do, play and try to do the right thing to win the game. Some days it is not going to be possible and it is [early] in the season. It\u2019s still a long marathon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another massive clash is the round starter early on Saturday afternoon, as Liverpool and Everton meet an Anfield for the Merseyside derby. One of the players set to be a key figure is the Reds\u2019 Dominik Szoboszlai, who has been hailed as \u2018the new Steven Gerrard\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am impressed as well. It\u2019s clear. I didn\u2019t know him, I knew him as a footballer, but not as a person before,\u201d said Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp of Szoboszlai. \u201cThe boy is impressive, is really smart, is really nice. A really good lad. Is close with everybody. You have these people who come into the room and click with everybody, he has that, charisma, [or] however you want to call it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The weekend\u2019s action also features Sheffield United looking to claim the scalp of Manchester United when the teams meet at Bramall Lane, Aston Villa will look to continue their explosive home form when they host West Ham United, and Tottenham Hotspur will host Fulham in a round-closing London derby on Monday night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey probably bring something different from any other team in the league in the way they play and the manner they go about things,\u201d said Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou. \u201cIt\u2019ll be a really good test for us to try to impose our football on a team that\u2019s fairly unique in the way they play the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss the best football action on DStv.
