I'd more of it down to the amount of football being played at the moment, we're having a mini pre season at the moment for some clubs, transfer windows are still open, add to that the empty stadiums.
Perfect season for someone to win who isn't a usual suspect at the top of the league, Everton look good, but I don't think defensively they are as good as Leicester were when they won it for example, the keeper being the biggest issue.1 -

Already conceded twice to West brom, Brighton and even Fleetwood. Although i believe they are trying to sign one or two defenders before the deadline.
The Merseyside derby right after the international break will be a good measure of where they're at.
Get a decent keeper and a Centre back to join Mina and they have a chance of champions league football
Doubt they are even looking at a goalkeeper but if they do get one they are looking good1 -

He said if you put a camera on a training match this is how many goals and chances you would see, and thats now coming into actual games due to no fans
As Carragher said last night, more and more teams are playing out from the back, their keeper passing it almost to the edge of his own 6 yard box and a lot of sides are now playing (or trying to play) a fast pressing game. Because of that, defences are making more mistakes either with the keeper or defender messing up a pass near to their goal, or a defence is being left exposed by a quick counter because they've pressed high up the pitch.

Tammy Abraham
Ben Chilwell

All being investigated for breaching covid rules and having a party for Abrahams birthday

The Villa scorers v Liverpool were all British, 6 by English and 1 by a Scot .. according to the BBC stats, Liverpool had 70% possession, Villa 30% .. that is very strange in a 7-2 victory for the 30% team.
No fans ? .. no doubt this is a MAJOR factor affecting the recent bizarre results and huge scores. Away teams (and no doubt some referees) are intimidated by hostile home crowds who are/should be a major influence on the home team, sometimes negatively of course. Conversely away teams can relax more and don't have to endure the abuse and ridicule from home fans.1 -

either way you would imagine it’s back up/competition to Pickford rather than a replacement.0 -
Rumours going around that Fernandes called Maguire out at HT yesterday, said he was a shit defender and was not fit to wear the shirt among other things, apparently it lead to a massive confrontation and Fernandes was asked to stay in the dressing room with Martial(hence why he was subbed off)
If true about time someone told Maguire he was rubbish, he literally pulled Shaw down yesterday as he was about to clear it for Tottenhams equaliser, and he has blocked his own players in the past, its seriously like he forgets what team he is on at times 🤣🤣2 - Sponsored links:

Now we'll see how good Liverpool are
Allisson injured for six weeks (?) and now van Dijk has gone off injured
Didnt take long for Everton to get back level with the latter subbed0 -
Great save from Pickford against TAA after all the stick he's had0

The worst assault I have seen on the pitch this season. Pickford has to get a red card.
It doesn't matter it it's offside or not.
That could have been career ending.6 -
Muscat-style horror tackle that from Pickford. All his body weight slamming into VVD's knee.1

There’s no such thing as a bad tackle on a Liverpool player5

That could have been career ending if his leg was planted0

Why did the Liverpool players just accept their Captain getting a flying scissors kick ?0

But no place for a tackle like that0 -
VAR working wonders again.
Pickford doesn't even get a yellow for an assault. Mane given offside even though despite their stupid lines, i'm convinced the replay freeze frame shows him onside.0 -
Goodness gracious me, a VAR decision going AGAINST the Bin Dippers?
Never thought I would see the day!3 -
Hahaha what a shame2

Offside is offside.0

You can’t score with your elbow.0
