Vinicius is very very mediocre. If he's playing regularly as a starter for you you'll be in trouble. He's a decent poacher but he is utterly useless in buildup play.We have an additional striker now - Vinicius (signed from Benfica, where he scored 18 goals in 33 appearances).
I've no idea what he's like. But the point is that we now have additional options. Last season we had only Kane (and Son who could also play as out-and-out striker if needed). Now we also have Bale and Vinicius.Vinicius is very very mediocre. If he's playing regularly as a starter for you you'll be in trouble.

The point is that if you're relying on him you'll be disappointed. Kane and Son are valuable because they are both elite creators as well as finishers. Vinicius averaged something like 15 passes per game for Benfica and had a mediocre conversion rate. If he's getting regular minutes you can kiss top 4 goodbye.

I take it back - based on how we've all started, I'd expect something more like;City
Liverpool
Chelsea
Utd
Arsenal
Wolves
Can't see Liverpool being as good this year, Chelsea have spent big (though unless they improve their defence it might not help much), and Arteta seems to be genuinely improving Arsenal...
Chelsea will pip you to top 3. Agree with the others.Liverpool
City
Spurs
Arsenal
Chelsea
Everton
The top 4 places are going to be very competitive, even more than usual, with 8 teams in contention, including United and Leicester City.
Why don't you cheaters just wait until the last gameweek to make your predictions?
Still quite confident about this line-up - Liverpool far and away the best team and will walk it again in the end, though clearly not as decisively as last season. Bastards.1. Liverpool
2. City
3. Chelsea
4. Spurs
5. Arsenal
6. United
Tough to decide who will finish higher between Spurs and Arsenal - going with the former but not confident either-way.
I still think 4,5,6 could still finish like that, Fwank needs to pull his finger out and beat Leicester tonight.

Not trying to blow my own horn here but...aside from Sancho on deadline day.....I really really hope I am wrong on the last point thoughI'm going for it! United sign Sancho on deadline day and the league is much more open, all teams dropping points to each other. United crash out of the CL early and concentrate on the league, Frank's Chelsea crumble, Jose shithouses his way into the top four and Liverpool have a couple of injuries which derail their season. The bitter pill to swallow is City finally win the CL and the papers declare pep a genius despite the fact it's taken him about gazillion pounds to do it outside of Barca.
