Unpredictable Premier League Leads to Complicated Power Rankings

Despite the season having only recently begun, it has already been a fairly unpredictable Premier League year.

For instance, the defending champions Manchester United have just ten points in the power rankings and are ninth in the EPL table. However, despite the team having putting in some poor performances, it is unlikely that there are nine teams better than them in the Premier League.

Arsenal is another team which has been full of surprises this season. In their opening game they were basically booed off the pitch by home fans when they lost 3-1 to Aston Villa.
However, since then the team hasn’t lost and has had just one draw.

Liverpool is also being impressive, recently they’ve enjoyed two convincing wins, the defense is looking good and since Luis Suarez’s return from suspension the offense is also coming together. While they have the same amount of points as Arsenal in the power rankings, the team probably needs to develop its attack a little more in order to claim the top spot.
