Wow. Sheff U 0-6 Newcastle.
I said Newcastle were lacking quality about half an hour ago, what does that make Sheff u? I think the Blades + Luton are two of the world promoted teams in recent years.
Napoli is the best team in Italy right now and in Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia they have two of the best players in the world. Other than those two, they are mostly a solid team with no other real stand out super stars. Napoli really remind me of a better version of Brighton styelistically. Inter...
They are producing some top, top talents now, Evan Ferguson for example... Would be able to keep young players on loan close, and playing a decent standard of football.
The SPL is crying out for a 3rd team, and the LOI could do with some investment too.
City are above them.
But looking at squad lists now, could be argued Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea have comparable squad depth strength vs Bayern, what you think?
Seems like Salah going there now, a top 3 PL player in his prime.
The Premier League is starting to be in serious danger now, I think the Rags or Spurs getting Qatari owners would probably tip the wealth back over to the PL.
We already have Arteta, Ten Hag and Kompany in the Premier League. Maresca will likely get Leicester Promoted and be in the league next year too. Xavi has won the league with Barcelona, and if that venture goes wrong for him, you could potentially see him in the Prem. Xabi Alonso is doing great...
If they get Kudus and maybe a striker, they have a really, really good team. Close to Villa and Newcastle on paper. They just need to get a modern forward thinking manager now.
The Ajax from two seasons ago were by all accounts a top 7-10 team in the world. They were great. The iteration with De Jong, Ziyech and De Ligt were also a top 7-10 team under Ten Hag. Current Ajax? Signing Akpom from the Championship after fire selling any remaining talent they have left!
Sad...
Or has the cream all risen to the top already?
Examples..
Van Dijk on Southampton
Mane on Southampton
Mahrez on Leicester
Kante on Leicester
Grealish on Villa
