So many pundits and journos are coming out backing them to win the title this season. So far I've not heard ONE solid argument why apart from the one line about missing Kompany's leadership. Whereas we have strengthened where needed and have the prospect of KDB and Mendy playing regularly.
Am I missing something or is it just bias?
