I still don't know why people are already expecting too much from these teams already. They league just started and they have all played only one game in the league phase, remaining 37 matches which is still a long time from now. But the this, we are all doing prediction and these predictions are based on the level of signings the teams made during the transfer window.
It is too early to neglect any team or criticize any team. The season has just started and only 1 match has been played. It is not yet the right time to say how strong any team is and where they are. It is not even the right time to decide the top 5 teams. We are just rushing and criticizing the teams unnecessarily. Because the competitive game will be after 20 matches. Even if you win the first 20 matches, your title is not guaranteed. You have to maintain consistency towards the end and collect the necessary points.
At least the shadows are already visible even though the League has only just started its first game. As seen in previous seasons, the top teams will always dominate the top four positions and this season is certain to be much more competitive than last season. Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City will be strong contenders in the title race, Chelsea might be in the running if Enzo Maresca can improve the quality of his team.
The dark horse team will also increase competition in the European zone, almost every EPL season always presents a dark horse team that can disrupt the dominance of elite teams in the European zone. It's not yet clear who will win the title this season, but the season will be exciting, as I believe the top four teams will be separated by a narrow points difference.
