The Title Race - 2023/24

[citizen_maine]

At least the (yet another) upcoming two week international break after next Sunday gives our injured players some more recovery time.

They'll probably get called up

Maybe mate, they might get called, but I think we all know what City’s reply should be, as a) the physios who know them best and b) the organisation who pays their salary.

Do you seriously think at least one of spurs arsenal or Liverpool won't be near the top come the end of the season?

You’ve missed the media darlings the rag arses surely they are in with a great shout they have only lost 4 games already lol

I don't consider them title contenders this season.
I'm not stupid enough though to believe that we will walk this league and that a team like arsenal, spurs or Liverpool won't challenge us over the season.
In 4 of our title wins ,United, arsenal and Liverpool ran us very close.

This year loads of top 8 will nick points of each other, Newcastle, Brighton, Villa will all influence the league as the eventual top 4 could easily drop points to them
.im thinking an 83 points could make someone chapions this year, we are in the running with 3 or 4 others

I am expecting Liverpool to be our closest challengers. They've bought well over summer and look like their period of "rebuilding" is proving it was the right thing to do. Klopp is second only to Pep in this league and he is the only other manager who's capable of putting some insane win-streaks together. They will come a close 2nd to us.

Arsenal still look good, but I think they'll struggle over the course of a season. I think they need, at least, a top class striker. Arteta has done brilliantly with them and I think if he can produce another good finish he might be off to a bigger club in Spain etc. They'll be a few points behind Liverpool in 3rd.

Spurs look absolutely brilliant this season and it shows what a good manager can do. The way they are playing makes them ideal to watch for the neutral. However, they aren't going to challenge for the title as their squad still needs some more players in. I expect them to come 4th.

United are a funny one as they started badly last year and somehow got going. I expected them to have had a better start but if anything, they've not progressed. I think behind the scenes, the likes of Maguire, Sancho and Antony must be having a really bad effect on the rest of them but that's nearly £250m of unhappy players. I think they'll come around 7th.

7th from bottom sounds much better.

Even if this pipedream came drew, wouldnt necessarily improve you. It's all about him and him only. There's a reason PSG have won nothing aside from the league that makes Scotland look competitive

It was a joke…get that?
