"The Premier League is as open as it has ever been." After helping West Ham to a stunning 2-0 win at Newcastle on Monday, Jarrod Bowen's words summed up England's top flight perfectly. Before the match, the Hammers were being talked about as in a relegation fight. Now they are just eight points off second place and eyeing Europe. Apart from runaway leaders Liverpool, the race for Europe in the Premier League has never been tighter. There is just one point separating second to fifth - the smallest the gap has ever been at this stage of the season. The previous low after 12 matches was two points, which had only happened three other times. Looking further down the table and the gap between second to 10th is just five points, which is the joint lowest after 12 matches. It has happened only twice previously. The gap between second to West Ham in 14th is just eight points - which has been matched only once previously - although the Hammers are now four points clear of the bottom six. Former Arsenal winger Theo Walcott told Sky Sports: "Everyone is beating everyone. You just can't predict any results now. The league is more unpredictable than ever." Ex-Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher added: "That win has created a group of six at the bottom and maybe three of those six will now go. "That was a bad one for Newcastle. A win and they would have been right in the mix. There are so many teams so close together, who will be looking at those European places." English clubs are guaranteed four places in the Champions League next season but will be hopeful of gaining an extra spot, given to two countries with the strongest performances in this season's European competitions. There will be then two English teams in the Europa League next campaign. One place given to the fifth or sixth-placed teams - depending on how many teams qualify for the Champions League - and one for the winner of the FA Cup. That place will revert to the league though if the FA Cup winner has already qualified for Europe. The winners of the Carabao Cup would then qualify for the Europa Conference League but, again if they have already secured a place in Europe, that spot would be for the next highest-ranked team in the Premier League. As you can see there is plenty to play for. How long is a piece of string? It is one of those questions that feels impossible to answer definitively but one thing you can say is a lot of teams have been inconsistent. Between second to 12th, Manchester City, Arsenal, Brighton, Fulham and Newcastle are the only sides who have won back-to-back games more than once all season, while nine of them have at some point gone three games without a win. Many of the teams we would be expecting to be challenging for a Champions League place have underperformed this season. Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle and Manchester United all have fewer points at this stage than they did last campaign. Aston Villa, in the Champions League this season, have one win in seven but are still only four points off second. Chelsea, in third, have two wins in six, and fourth-placed Arsenal have one in five. Manchester City have lost their past three and remain second. Meanwhile, it would be fair to argue that Brighton, Nottingham Forest and Fulham are overachieving compared with many people's expectations, with their points tally significantly better than at this stage last season. Just five teams have won three matches in a row - Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. As we enter the busiest period of the season, there will be a lot of teams still fancying their chances of making a push for Europe.

CHENNAI : In a bid to reject any links to the Adani bribery row, Chief Minister and DMK president MK Stalin has kicked up a storm calling PMK founder S Ramadoss ‘jobless.’ Seeking to downplay the opposition's criticism linking the TN government to the probe initiated by the US authorities against the Adani group, Stalin said that there was no need to respond to the statements made by Ramadoss. He was responding to questions raised by reporters after inaugurating the Vizhuthugal facility for the differently-abled at Kannagi Nagar in Chennai. "He (Ramadoss) is jobless. So, he is issuing statements daily. We don't have to respond," Stalin said when reporters sought his reaction to the PMK leader demanding an explanation on State power utility Tangedco’s alleged ties with the Adani Group bribery allegation after the business tycoon's indictment in the US. Stalin started by saying that the minister of the concerned department (Senthilbalaji, Electricity) had issued the necessary clarification and added the controversial remark when reporters probed him further. Meanwhile, responding to reporters’ questions on the upcoming Winter session of the Parliament, Stalin said, "We conducted a meeting of MPs and adopted a resolution on the issues to be raised in the Parliament. They will speak accordingly." The CM assured of the government's preparedness for a downpour in the State in the backdrop of the weather department forecasting heavy rains in some districts in the next few days. "We are prepared for any eventuality," he said. Why panic, simply answer questions raised, says Anbumani In a strongly worded rebuttal to CM Stalin, PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss said the DMK chief is panicking over questions on Adani row and demanded an apology for insulting a senior leader. "The chief minister is panicking when questioned about bribery allegations against Adani and the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board (TNEB). Ramadoss only asked about the meeting between Stalin and Gautam Adani. The image of Tamil Nadu is tarnished in the US. As a concerned citizen and a founder of a political party, Ramadoss sought an explanation from the government," Anbumani said in a statement. Anbumani demanded the chief minister to apologise in public for his statement on Ramadoss. "Moreover, he should also explain the links between the Adani scandal and TNEB. An investigation should be ordered under a Madras High Court judge to probe the allegations," he added. After decades of contributions, Ramadoss doesn’t deserve such ill-treatment, Anbumani said. "The Chief Minister (MK Stalin) literally abused my leader (PMK founder S Ramadoss), saying that he has no work and just giving statements. This is completely uncalled for by a CM of the State. My leader had asked a very valid question. It is the duty of the CM to respond to that and to also why Gautam Adani and his son met the CM at his home," Anbumani said. In another statement, Anbumani requested the State government to name a new port in Cuddalore after freedom fighter Anjalai Ammal. "Tamil Nadu Maritime Board has decided to create a new port at Rs 2,000 crore near the old port. PMK has been demanding to name the Collector's office after Anjalai Ammal. The demand has not been fulfilled. The new port should be named after her and an announcement should be made," he urged. In a separate statement, PMK president S Ramadoss said that several employees of cooperative societies have been posted over 100 km away from their homes. "Moreover, the salary of the employees is too low and they cannot afford to pay house rent," he said, and asked the government to review the order.Global Construction Equipment Rental Software Market Size, Share and Forecast By Key Players-EZRentOut, ARM Software, InTempo, Wynne Systems, Point of RentalUnlock the Secrets of Successful Investing!
