    Oh yes, there are 33 more games to be played, but Liverpool seems well stacked at almost every position, and altough they're not winning pretty, they have internalized the winning mentality. The other contenders (City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs :whistling:) are already struggling and it may take them a while to gel and hit their stride.

    i think it'll be between Liverpool, City and Arsenal.

    most likely Liverpool, City are in rebuild more and Arsenal are just a better spurs, they don't have the balls to actually win anything.

    Arsenal has the quality but also lacks the mentality, plus they already lost a match to Liverpool, so they must win their other confrontation, and hope that at some point Slot's guys start to lose momentum (which is possible given how long the season is).

    Chelsea are my darkhorse, but I think that they're not build for this season but for the next one. City as you said are in rebuilding mode, so they will barely make it to the UCL spots. Spurs got a title last year, so they know how to win now... Oh wait, they beat Yunay in the worst final I've seen in the last decade or so.

    Game vs Bremen looked like a training game though. Easiest game yet and almost all games have looked comfortable except the Chelsea one.

    Not really..I mean they made a lot of money and will probably win the league again. But of course as Colombians it breaks your heart. He belonged in EPL.

    Yeah I mean the Buli is a downgrade. Everyone knows that.

    If it wasn't Bayern Munich I would have been upset.

    But Bayern is one of the biggest teams in the history of football

    I think they are as good as last season but not thanks to Wirtz or Isak. Would've been enough to buy etikite and kerkez. Even frimpong was a bit questionable, Bradley is only getting better.

    Liverpool don't look better so far this season, Gakpo is a big downgrade to Diaz, can't offer the same width and dynamism, but I also think its early and the other players are good but need time to figure out their new system, so they could still be better but clearly if they kept Diaz and sold Gakpo they'd be ideal.

    They don't look upgraded to me in terms of play but they are younger and cashed in on some veterans.

    I like all the players they bought, Ekitike surprised me alot he looks like a guy who could really be good, Isak was great last year, Wirtz was too, Kerkez very good player, Frimpong I don't think fits as a fullback in the way they play and what they do. I think on paper all very good players, 3 of them you had to pay top top dollar, but so far they haven't really looked comfortable or worth the money and they don't look like they know how to truly max out Wirtz in their system. Will have to judge them later, but they have a ton of talent but so far they really do miss Diaz an Diaz is thriving and showing how much of a star he is, maybe it works for everyone by the end of the season.

    I think your last sentence is probably right. And in a world cup year having Diaz playing on a stacked BM side to keep his confidence high is good.

    im telling you that guajaro workrate is top in the work.

    its even more impressive that he plays further back at times in Germany than he did in England.

    Gakpo is not it, never has been. But he has a knack for scoring goals which his strong suit, and thats quite a trait
