Liverpool if everyone clicks concerns me the most. They were great last season too just unlucky to meet PSG so early. Now with all these top players could be a crazy crazy team. Also didn't play CWC
PSG is still the best but after what I saw in CWC final I think something similar may happen next season in CL. Them being absolute favourites but complacency costing them against someone
Bayern really doesn't look promising. Maybe if they signed a top LW but we see they target likes of Diaz. Arsenal good on paper but we simply gotta wait because they are Arsenal
There is Madrid ofc but on CWC they looked shit and Xabi's dreams of Mbappe and Vini working their asses off really doesn't convince me
Overall I'm inclined to believe we have good chances again especially if our signings do well

I look at this and we probably have the 3rd or 4th best defense here.
Liverpool
Arsenal
PSG, debatable pacho and marqious aren't that good, as I've been saying.
Barca
Madrid/City.
Coupled also with a top 5 Midfield and top 2 attack.
The possibilities are endless.
Already made my predictions elsewhere on the forum.

Agreed on defense and attack but top 5 midfield? Too harsh imo. Currently only PSG has better midfield. And individually I think our is better, but PSG still work better as a collective.

I didn't say where we landed in the top 5 lol.
It's PSG then us, pedri is better than vitinha, but the other two are better than our two, and they operate better as a unit.
PSG
Barca
Liverpool
If rodri is fully back and the flying dutchman, city could be 1 or 2, because nobody does midfield better than pep.

Yeah, Martinez is pretty clear weakness for us, even though he did very well last season. I would want someone faster and quicker tho.
Liverpool look like they mean business. But then again they were heavy favourites after the group stages as well with that PL dominance. Many new players in the XI, let's see if they click. On paper they look really strong.
This would be my top 4 with Liverpool and PSG slightly getting an edge.
1. Liverpool, PSG
2. Barca, Madrid

Klopp must be fuming. They never gave him this sort of spending, did they?
All the years pinching pennies and now they go allin?

Not really debatable. PSG's back back four is better than Barca's in every position.
As an aside, Barca are better than Arsenal overall, but Arsenal could feast on set pieces in a h2h match. Who on Barca is marking those two Arsenal centerbacks on a corner? They also have Gyokeres and Rice now who are both 6'2.

With Gyôkeres I think I give Arsenal edge.
I wish we could add to our defense.. it's just problematic now.

Good list just City might be too high
They have built a great team and maybe Pep will fix them up but what we saw in CWC and elimination from Al Hilal is not convincing
