Although it was only a 1-0 away win over Fulham, it was also Arsenal's lowest goal in a single game since the new season; However, this victory still made the Arsenal players extremely excited, and after this round of matches, the Gunners fans were excited, because now Arsenal have finally reached the top of the league table once again after seven rounds of league games!

In the first round of the league, Arsenal occupied the top position of the standings because of away goal difference, but although they did not lose in the future, their second round of the league was postponed because of the Champions League qualifiers, which also made them temporarily lose the top position in the standings. Chelsea's previous six consecutive wins made even the unbeaten Arsenal reluctantly relegated to the second place in the standings.

But after the seventh round of the league, Arsenal are the leaders of the Premier League this season! Six wins and one draw with 19 points, although the gap is not big, but Arsenal are indeed the real league leaders, they have once again proved that this season's title is not just a joke, they have done enough well, because they are now the only team in the Premier League who have not tasted defeat in the new season, because the Blues lost in this round of games!

Chelsea face Wigan Athletic who had just been beaten 4-0 by Arsenal in the seventh round of the league, but in this round of the game Chelsea lost 3-1 at the DW Stadium to end a run of 11 consecutive league wins (including five last season) and nine consecutive wins in competitive competitions this season.

In the first half, Wigan defender Bramble scored with a header. The second half began. Didier Drogba scored his 100th goal for Chelsea. However, Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech was subsequently sent off with a red card. Chelsea are on the back foot in 11 out of 10; Wigan Athletic striker Rodalega then took the penalty kick to exceed the score again; Wigan planted vegetables and Schalner sealed the win before the end. It was Wigan's first win in 35 meetings with the Premier League's semi-finals, and they were also the biggest upset of the round.

Chelsea, who have been unexpectedly upset, have won six and lost one since the start of the season, and under the leadership of manager Carlo Ancelotti, they are now only one point behind Arsenal, and now they still have a good chance of returning to the top of the table again. However, the initiative is now in the hands of Arsenal, even if it is only a one-point lead, Arsenal is now the league leader!

In third place in the standings is Manchester United, after the loss of Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United does not seem to be affected more, under the tutelage of Ferguson, the league treble Manchester United team in the first seven rounds of five wins, one draw and one loss accumulated 16 points. In the seventh round, they comfortably beat Stoke City away at Britannia Stadium thanks to a brace from dashing Gobertitar Bartov.

Now Manchester United team is in the standings, after Ronaldo's departure, Manchester United's attacking power has not decreased, but has been improved, the Red Devils are unbeaten in five rounds of the league and officially start defending the title, and their results are even better than the same period last season when they had Ronaldo! This cannot but be said to be a small miracle, and the creator of the miracle belongs to a famous coach named Ferguson.

In the eyes of many people, this season's Premier League is a battle between Manchester United and Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal are also good, but only Chelsea and Manchester United are the two horses running at the front of the league; But now it looks like Arsenal are playing the role of a dark horse, although people know that their quality is good, but they obviously still underestimate Arsenal's strength, and now the Gunners are proud to stand at the top of the table, which is undoubtedly a huge incentive for the Gunners.

Third in the table belongs to Liverpool, who scored a hat-trick in this round despite a somewhat disappointing performance at the start of the new season. Steven Gerrard scored in the Shijie wave, Babel scored twice and Liverpool thrashed Hull City 6-1 at Anfield, and with a four-game winning streak, Liverpool bottomed out.

Five wins and two losses, Liverpool, who got 15 points, temporarily suppressed the Manchester City team with five wins and one loss in one round of less games in the fourth place in the standings, and the current Premier League semi-finals once again proved that they are the order of the Premier League, and if they want to challenge the dominance of the Premier League semi-finals, other teams really need to work harder.

Arsenal's next two rounds of opponents are Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham, these are two teams with average strength, at this time Arsenal is also very confident to maintain their advantage at this time, they will go all out to sit on the leader's throne, they need good haode to enjoy the joy and hope brought by the leader.

As for Chelsea, who is in second place in the standings, it is also a little distressed, any team has won eight consecutive games in all competitions, and it will breed some crises, including conceit, underestimating the enemy and other psychological factors, Ancelotti denied after the game that Chelsea was "overconfident".

Wigan had previously lost 0-4 to Arsenal and 0-5 to Manchester United, and have not won 34 league games against the semi-final teams, and have only picked up two points in 17 home games, so it can be said that they really have no confidence in facing the Premier League semi-finals. But this time against Chelsea, their fortunes began to turn around, and they not only won the first three points. Three goals in a single game is also a breakthrough, having only scored four of their previous eight league games against the Blues!

When Chelsea won six in a row in the new season, some media once used "unbeaten season" as Chelsea's pursuit of the new season, and they also looked very good; But people are not machines. There are always ups and downs in form, and a game against Wigan could be a small low for Chelsea.

However, Chelsea is a little distressed now, not to mention the Champions League group stage, because they are also very sure of locking the first place in the group stage; However, the opponent in the eighth round is Liverpool, one of the top four, and this strong clash will be a big challenge for Chelsea. And with the 03-04 season Arsenal to create an undefeated championship myth, which is difficult to replicate in today's Premier League, since 03 Abu into the ownership, a large number of foreign capital to support the Premier League teams, the strength of the middle and lower reaches of the team has been greatly improved, not sure which dark horse will stand up for an upset, with the defeat of Chelsea in this round, only the Gunners Arsenal in the Premier League have not tasted defeat!

Manchester United, who are third in the league, will host Sunderland and Bolton Wanderers in the eighth and ninth rounds of the Premier League. But in the tenth round, Manchester United will go to Anfield to challenge Liverpool, and Manchester United's challenge is coming; And they will also meet Chelsea soon after the meeting with Liverpool.

With Manchester United's top win rate in Europe in the last two seasons and a super high home win rate, Manchester United should not be able to beat Sunderland, Bolton Wanderers and Wanderers at home; However, Manchester United will travel to Liverpool and Chelsea respectively and it will be a very important title race. A big plus for Manchester United is that even if they miss the first half away at Chelsea and Liverpool, the Red Devils will still be hoping to return home in the second half to beat Liverpool and Chelsea with plenty of bang for their possible mistakes in the first half.

As everyone knows, Manchester United has not been able to sign strong reinforcements in the recruitment market after losing the two aces of Cristiano Ronaldo and Tevez this summer to make up for the vacancy left by Ronaldo's departure. While Manchester United don't seem to have lost their core pain since the start of the new season, they are missing a top player and their tactics do need to change.

Since the start of the new season, although it is only seven rounds of matches now, although the gap between several teams in the standings is not very large, some things can also see some signs. First of all, the Premier League semi-finals are likely to continue their dominance of Champions League qualifying, and Manchester City/Tottenham Hotspur, although they are very good, but it will be really difficult for them to make a breakthrough.

Another thing is the championship of the Premier League this season, although the league is only about one-fifth of the way now, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the favorites for the championship are obviously Manchester United and Chelsea, which have won three consecutive championships; As for Arsenal, their strong performances since the start of the new season have had to make them think of the media and fans when discussing the ownership of the title. And Liverpool, their quality is really good, but it is really difficult for Liverpool to compete for the title at this time, maybe they will be able to guarantee the top four in the standings, but in the title race, they may just play the role of spoiler.

Arsenal's players are happy that for the young Arsenal, many of them have no championship experience, they have missed out on the best of Arsenal's strong times in the Premier League, and they have even witnessed Arsenal's low point. But now, although it is only temporarily at the top of the standings, it will undoubtedly be a very good signal, which also makes the young Gunners players have more confidence, they believe that they can laugh at this time, they believe that they can make a breakthrough and win the league title!

Xiao Qing was also happy at this time, and chose to come to Arsenal because he was optimistic about Arsenal's overall strength, and he believed that Arsenal was very competitive. Arsenal's performance since the new season has not disappointed Xiao Qing, he believes that the team can get better, and he believes that the team will definitely be able to get more wins. And some of the advantages now are enough to make people happy, but Xiao Qing also understands that this is just the beginning, because they still have a lot of games to continue! (To be continued......)
