New season of Premier League has just begun. It is the best league in the world in terms of drama, tension, entertainment and excitement unmatched.
Here is my prediction and evaluation of the current squad
for the upcoming season.
Chelsea: I'd like to start with the champions. Last season
they were fantastic and won the Title without any hindrance. Mourinho seems to
be quite pleased with this set of players and has not gone and bought players
for the sake of buying. They are the most balanced team, they have a solid
defence, balanced midfield, and creative while lethal in attack.
Weakness: Their defence is massively overhyped, how their
defence works depends on what kind of day Matic is having.
Where they will finish: 1st. It's hard to see them not
winning PL again. While they have some weakness, are any PL side good enough to
exploit it?
Manchester United:
Manchester United have continued their spending spree, they very much
believe in Van Gaal’s project. They have bolstered their defence and more
importantly midfield. They needed to do that, to close the gap between them and
Chelsea. So have they? That still remains a major doubt for me, while the buys
they made were important they still haven’t done anything about one of the
major issues last season; Their attack. Under Van Gaal, Manchester United
scored the least number of goals in Last 20 years. Yes, even less than Moyes
Era. With Di Maria gone they have now also lost their most creative player.
Question mark still remains about Wayne Rooney as a striker, is he good enough
to lead them? Is he good enough to score 20+ goals in the league? For me the
answer is a blunt No. They need to buy a more direct and creative forward, a
household name.
Weakness: Creativity and directness in attack.
Weakness: Creativity and directness in attack.
Where they will finish: They just edges Man City and will
finish second.
That's all for now folks, stay tuned for the next segment.
