I think City will also have a difficult match against Brighton because Brighton are strong at home, and with City we can still see weaknesses in their defense while the attack is not performing as well as before. Arsenal currently seems like the most prepared team for the new season, so I expect them not to lose today, and at the same time Liverpool’s defense is far from perfect, so I expect Arsenal to score.
I just looked at Manchester City's lineup and the player I'm seeing there are not the players I used to know. Just Haaland, Silver, Rodri and Stones and apart from Marmoush that was signed during the January transfer window. The rest of the players are just unknown to me as Manchester City players. The team has really changed from what I used to know them as.
I'm watching the Brighton vs Manchester City and it's true most of the players Pep Guardiola is using to play against Brighton aren't known to us. There's a big change in the Manchester City's squad this season, and if what I am seeing right now is the finest men of Manchester City this season, this season is going to be another difficult season for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City.
