Starting from the bottom, United definitely upgraded managers but there will be an adjustment period. I still think they need a year or two to rotate more players to the squad.

Leicester feels on the verge. IDK.

Chelsea needed a scorer and (so far) added Sterling. Love Raz, but he isn't that guy. The numbers don't tell the whole story with him.

Tottenham have solidified a bit and Conte is PL proven. He SHOULD be able to make progress, especially if Son and Kane stay healthy and carry their form from last season.

I'm bullish on Arsenal because I think Arteta is going to be great and I think they've had a great window. Jesus is frustrating sometimes but he busts arse and I think when he's finally "the guy" he'll do well.

City have had a good bit of turnover. Even if he didn't play much Dinho is going to be missed as a leader in the squad. Sterling, while I wasn't exactly sad to see him go, played a shite ton on the left so we'll see how Foden/Grealish do as penciled in starters. If the rumors about Gundogan are true I expect his role to be seriously diminished as well. With Zinny gone we also need another LB. If we can't close on Cucurella it'll be an issue all season. Even if he does come it's going to take time to adjust. Haaland is going to wreck shite if the rest works out though.

I think Liverpool win it because 1) they're a fricking great squad with the 2nd best manager in the league and 2) City are going to struggle to adjust and adapt the first 6-8 weeks of the season.
