Imo it seems pretty obvious at this point that those three will be ahead of the rest at the end of the season.

I hope it can go down to the wire in a three-horse race, it’s very rare but I think the ingredients are there. I think Liverpool and Arsenal are capable of reaching 90+ points this season. It really depends if ManCity become unplayable or if they do have some kind of treble hangover.

    Liverpool look a good deal better and more resilient than arsenal.

    Be interesting to see if spurs manage to over come arguably two freak games to get back on track.

    I really think Liverpool might do it this year

    Until some thing is done about City’s cheating , chances are they will win the league most seasons. Cheating works unless something is done about it

    I think Liverpool will be in the title race with us after taking their yearly hiatus . Arsenal could be there but they are already worse off than this point last year and with UCL commitments , I don’t know if they have the experience or the squad come March .

    It’s between City & Liverpool as they are the best two teams in the league. Arsenal aren’t firing like they were this time last season.

    City is very beatable this year. They’re still, probably, the best club in the PL, but they are vulnerable and Liverpool and/or Arsenal could take the League. Liverpool is solid top to bottom. Arsenal, if they can get healthy and figure out their attacking play can beat anyone. We’ve already beat City twice this year. Hopefully we’ll get an exciting finish and crown a new champion.

      They’re definitely far too reliant on Rodri, they lose him and this year they’ll struggle

      It would be really painful for me if City don’t win the league this season and Liverpool or any other team not named Arsenal win it… I don’t think I would be able to handle it tbh.

    Ask again in January/February. That’s when the real title race began

      It’s highly unlikely anyway, it’s usually either a one or two horse race. That’s why I’m asking now. In January/February, we’ll basically know if it’s going to be a three-horse race or not.

      And when it ends with a 10 game winstreak for “115 breaches of financial rules FC”.

    Not likely. Liverpool look good but aren’t quite there yet. Arsenal will falter. Another one horse race, I think.

    The race for the other top 4 place will be the most interesting. Villa, Spurs, Newcastle, Man United, Chelsea all contenders.

    City will win by min 8 points imo. They’ll hit their post-Christmas form and have a fit KDB still to come back. They’ll just pull away like normal. The battle for second through to fourth will be really tight tho especially if Tottenham can get their starters fit and Newcastle hit their straps again

      KDB is getting old and the injuries have been stacking up for a long time, who knows how much athleticism he’ll come back with which is a big part of his game.

      Then you can factor in how thin their squad is and they’re likely to run deep in the CL, I think they could struggle a bit.

      Liverpool have a very deep squad and aren’t in CL, they’re also likely to continuously improve as the season goes on and synergy builds. Think it’ll come down to those 2.

      Don’t think Arsenal have the squad or the experience to compete on all fronts.

        KDB though simply has the pure technical skill to break down some of the toughest defenses. Like against Arsenal, if they had a player who could feed Haaland the type of balls that KDB feeds, it could’ve been a different story.

        As well, while their depth has been exposed this season, Liverpool and Arsenal still suffer from worse. Liverpool’s defense is still thin and a lack of a true number 6 hurts a lot because Klopp doesnt want to play Endo for some reason.

        Arsenal also has serious depth issues in attack because someone like Nketiah is simply not good enough for a title winning team though Arteta has made some smart changes by play slower and more tactical, albiet more boring, football.

    Spring Man City is a different beast, but who knows what injuries we’ll have by then. Who doesn’t love a good title race?

    It depends on the next transfer window and injuries. City has a deep squad so they’re almost certain to be there.

    Everyone else has a chance to be therebor thereabouts.

    Even Villa could pull off a hero run.
