ok, you've all been holding your breath for so long.
Manchester City Football Club will win the EPL 2017/18
Mendy and Silva from Monaco are great signings, it was always going to be tough for Pep in his first season, they are best equipped to win, I saw first hand in Nashville, Aguero and Jesus going forward, its a truly scary sight.
Chelsea demand respect after last year but they had no european involvement, that made such a difference, things are a little uneasy in the camp with Conte not getting every player he wants, the Costa will he stay/go games, can't argue with the signing of Morata but having to play every tuesday/wednesday now will catch them out.
Tottenham at 10/1 would be value for a team that came 3rd and then 2nd in the last 2 years but its so Tottenham to bulldoze the stadium you play in after having the best home record for a lifetime, our record at wembley isn't good, the pitch dimensions are a lot different from white hart lane, this is of more concern than us not buying anyone as we have a very settled squad and Pochettino could be the next great manager, i still see us making top 4.
Arsenal - great signing in Lacazette but they're top heavy now even if sanchez stays, the arsenal defense is old and ropey for me, Koscielny holds the back line together, without him they're suspect, the FA cup win papered over the cracks for me, Wenger should have gone 4 years ago, they may miss out on top 4 again.
Liverpool - Klopp isn't the Messiah and they don't convince under him, big defensive frailties, Mane being fit would help but don't see a lot of positives in Anfield.
Best of the rest are Everton and Southampton but and the former have made some eye-catching signings in keane and Klaasen but will probably only make the europa places again.
Man Utd - Jose always does well in his second season and Lukaku is a diamond of a signing but he'll be stifled by Jose's defensive formations, Matic is just the player he wanted, they'll get back into the CL places playing ugly football.
Best of the rest are Everton and Southampton but and the former have made some eye-catching signings in keane and Klaasen but will probably only make the europa places again.
1) Citeh
2) Chelsea
3) the best team in the world
4) Man Utd
5) Arsenal
6) Liverpool
I probably won't play the first couple of weeks of the season unless there's dramatic team news or something else that offers an opportunity.
Don't bet the farm in the first month.
