People are going on as if they've signed Kaka, C Ronaldo, Modric, Marcelo and Alonso. They've signed Wirtz, who's nowhere near KDB or D Silva, Etikite who's nowhere near Haaland, Kerkez who's a similar level to Ait Nouri and Frimpong who's nowhere near Kyle Walker. People are just too excited these days.
If they get Isak, fair play but Ekitike is ok, nothing more.

Have they improved from last season and looking clear favourites already ? Yes.

Favourites, probably.

Improved? Remains to be seen.

Robertson and Arnold were statistically among the best in the league when it comes to creating chances. Are their replacements and upgrade? In some ways you may say yes, but are they an upgrade in terms of prove ability to create chances at this level from that position? An integral part of how that team plays. Let's see..

Now they've got to hope two new full backs can step into their shoes and pick up where they left off in terms of chances created, especially if Liverpool decide to use the same style of play. Easier said than done.

Maybe Sloth will change their style of play to accommodate players and that's always a gamble.

Id make them favourite simply on the basis that Arsenal are bottlers and we need to prove we have fixed obviously problems. And I'm not sure the likes of Chelsea can bridge that gap over a full season yet.

They have bought well as the money they have spent seems to be instant upgrades to their 1st team. Of all the money we spent in January and the summer so far, how many improve our 1st 11, Ait-Nouri and Reijnders only I would say.

When you think about it how did we allow this to happen that we stood still and now have a big rebuild to do . Pep shouldn’t have been allowed to decide no transfers a decision which has absolutely snashed us .
 
Every team made it easier for the dippers to win it last season. Probably us more than any other. But they also had a clear run by concentrating only on the league, that was their sole intention: no cup games to interfere with plan A.
This new season will be a complete change for most of us, and although I think they have improved their squad I don't think we will see such a one-horse race this time around.

VVD is still one of if not the best centre backs in world football. He is superior to anything city have at this moment. I expect you disagree but that's ok . You are a City supporter

Van Dijk is a good defender but one who's deficiencies aren't as obvious as he gets to play the game to Liverpool rules.
If he played for anyone else, bar the rags, he'd miss a third of the season due to the cards he'd get playing for any other club.
Remember, one of the dirtiest thugs to play the game in modern times, Robertson, only received one red card while playing for the cheats.

If they don’t win the league this year, it will go down as one of the worst title defences, considering the money spent.

Pressure is 100% on them

Hopefully they're not as lucky with injuries to key players, full backs look decent, not sure they're an improvement, Wirtz is quality but changes their midfield which was effective last season and the new striker was needed to replace the sad situation with Jota.
Could be a very exciting season, we've more to do in the market obviously.

Cunts are gonna get Isak aren't they?

I want them to be referred to as 'moneybags Liverpool'... or ....'big-spending Liverpool' every time their name comes up on sky or the BBC

That's how it works doesn't it!!??

They can do a Chelsea and buy who and what they want, winning the title and getting a team together is mostly about chemistry (Obviously you have to have decent players too) but we get our arse in gear and it doesn't matter who they buy.

Point in case is PSG with a front line of Messi,Mbappe and Neymar and they weren't really all that, FFW a few seasons and none of those players and they are pumping.

I get the point you are trying to make but other than Haaland the three City players you are comparing them to no longer play for us. We also do not have anyone in our squad as good as David Silva, KDB, or Kyle Walker.
 
Cheque Book FC have to be stopped. Imagine the darkness if they won two titles on the trot. I think they will be up there, but as already pointed out on here, other teams will not be as gash as they were last season (apart from my beloved Everton ha ha) So they will not have it so easy this time.

They have spent big before, this time isn't much different. I'll show my arse in Tesco if these wet faced cunts win the league again this century.
