I think it’s between two teams too but it’s Chelsea and City, your strength in depth is pretty poor and I can see you struggling in the second half of the season. Liverpool and Utd to make up the rest of the top 4.
Well GB you've been predicting Liverpool would win the title for 30 years in a row, so just keep doing that. At some point you will be right again.
City were well and truly written off last season after 7 games and they won it at a canter in the end.
Way too early to be making predictions about May.
The top 4 will be same 4 teams as last year but the order is not certain at all.
How can a team who have accumulated the number of points City have over the past three years be put behind Pool and Chelsea and this is from a United fan
I think it's between ourselves and Chelsea too. Both looking very impressive, and not conceding goals.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
So far won 4 games and drawn 1..whilst just conceding 1 goal with:
Origi
Elliott
Jota
Keita
Kostas
Konate
Gomez
Milner
Minamino
All contributing plus Firmino has been out and obvs Elliott is now out.
So...i would say this "weak" squad is tbh BS and the performances and results prove it...lest not forgot last 10 games last season we put a run together with Reece and N Phillips at CB pairing and we won something like 8 out of 10 and lost none...
Wheres this weak squad?
Most of those players are pretty sub standard tbf.
For once you are pretty much spot on with all this. Though Man City will be challenging with you and Chelsea.

Thats a fair point. I just feel city are not as strong defensively and will miss aguero over the season.
I can see both cfc and liverpool beating city in the games vs each other...we shall see..just my opinion

Come on now, it would be a bit foolish to assume city could close a 3 point gap at this stage of the season, I mean it’s almost unheard of

Well during the 2nd half of last season, ie the last 10 games, Liverpool won 8 and drew 2, playing without their best defensive midfield players, and having to use their 'pretty poor depth'. 😅

We are five games into the season. Let’s see where you are after 38. I’m not convinced by your squad and think Chelsea and City are stronger.
You have got a great manager though so I could be wrong.
