Preseason always brings out the positivity and hope in all football fans, but unfortunately the footballing gods write very different scripts.
Last season we should have kicked on to mount an outside title challenge (based on trajectory) but we ended up scraping 8th, the 22/23 season saw Liverpool in 5th and Chelsea in the bottom half of the table.
As we know, only 4 teams* can qualify for the CL but 6 teams have ambitions to do so (City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham) maybe 8 if you throw in Villa and Newcastle.
So the question is, which teams are going to have a shocker this season? Will Liverpool finish mid table? Will Chelsea be even worse this year now Pochettino is gone? Will Ten Hag have learned anything from last season or will it be more of the same?
Predict who is going to have a season to forgot and why.
My money is on Liverpool, new manager, no new players = disaster in waiting.
