Lukaku and Kounde will be great additions. CFC and MUFC look a lot better than they were last season, while City if they manage to get Kane, will have a brilliant and almost perfect squad.

Counting on squad consistency longer than 1 season has doomed teams before. Plenty of liabilities and ways it could go wrong for them, Stones reverting to normal self, Gundogan getting hurt, Walker being Walker, Rodri being Rodri…

100% and that is the beauty of football. Changes in a blink and Bayern is an excellent example from a perfect team not long ago to an alright one in a season a half.

Don't sleep on 'pool either, they were ravaged by injuries only. A team with averaged about 97 points for two seasons just before!

Mane's declining, Firmino has decline, and Salah I think is the only world class forward in their lineup. Jota has potential but there's still a question mark if he can replicate Mane's numbers consistently. Liverpool's midfield core is also pretty old, with the exception of Fabinho.

I think their cycle is nearing its end. Either this season or the next, either way I don't think they'll win this season. It's City, Utd, and Chelsea.

City sadly will be too focused on CL. For that reason will probably not win it. United have strengthened in the needed positions, and desperately need the EPL title, having not won it since 2012. With City winning it 3 out of 4, Manchester is blue. But the most improved top team is Chelsea. Providing Tuchel is not sacked by Abramovic before the end of the season, Chelsea are the ones to watch.
Liverpool will rally, but do they want to maintain thunder pressing all season again, I doubt it. Klopp s outburst at City indicated there are problems at Anfield.

End of the line?

For Abramovich, i mean.

End of the line?

For Abramovich, i mean.

Unless another big money man comes along end of line for Chelsea too.

Although I think some billionaire will buy Chelsea.

Why would be? As Israeli businessman he should be fine

This doesn't mean anything does it? Hasn't sold the club

Will return as some time passes

 

[khaled_a_d]

Yeah, very smart move from him

 

[El Gato]

Be interesting to see how much money he'll be able to funnel remotely with the sanctions.

Could be some tough years for the club coming

seems that those sanctions are working. oligarchs are running to cash in on their assets.

They can sell their assets? What's the point of sanctions then? (They have billions and billions worth of boats, houses etc etc).

Obv. Any asset they have should be frozen.
