Teams have become stronger. Teams will strengthen once more in this transfer window. Haaland will still miss sitters, get injured and score boatloads. KdB has reached the twilight of his super-powers. From now onwards, it is downhill for him, accumulation of injuries and ageing. It is inevitable, injuries await him this upcoming season. Once he is out, Haaland's chances of ghosting and not getting service increases and he goes into a drought.
KdB is no longer in his 20s, his injuries take longer to recover from. He will take time to come to form once his injury free or if he comes back red hot in form, like last season, he will dip like he did once more.
The season has not even started and you think we are the favourites. Pride and arrogance comes before the fall. What you claim is not confidence, but arrogance.
United, thought they would always win the title, 10 year drought has really proven otherwise. Bayern won it on the last day in 2022/23 season and went to lose it in 2023/24, I am sure they were the favourites and they thought they would win it AGAIN.
We remove our foot off the gas, we will be dethroned and that is a fact. We can not be resting on past laurels and glory. We need to improve as our competitors are improving. I guess it is just the half EMPTY type of person in me talking and you are the half FULL type!
Yes we would be royally *****, if we do not get Rodri cover and also I hope we get in another player that will contribute heavily on G/A, that can slot in the middle alongside Phil when Kev is injured or rotated!
I hope from the wing too, Savio can put in the G/A numbers. If it is not Savio coming, whoever it is, he needs to put in the numbers!
Nonetheless, these players have proven how special they are and they have dug deep and did what they had to do to win it in the end, but I still want us to take precautions and not take things for granted!
