I think another really interesting aspect of this title race is that there are teams involved that have appointed new managers this summer, but also those that have stuck with their current boss. Its also something that we can see about the additions of new players. I find it very interesting that out of the top four, two have had new managers while two have not. Arsenal and Chelsea have kept faith with their manager and squad to a large extent with just a few key additions. Man City and Chelsea have both changed their manager and been more active in the transfer market; it will certainly be interesting to see how this plays out. We live in a time when Premier League managers rarely get given time, six changes of management has already occurred in this league since the season has begun. Therefore, it will be very interesting to see if the winner in the title race will be a new manager or an old one. Furthermore, its interesting to see if change helps or hinder future success.
