Pretty decent is weak IMO. All top 4 teams need elite players.

Elite players like EPL winners Delph, Johnny Evans, Drinkwater, John O'Shea, Navas, Phil Jones, Okazaki, Cahill, Ajoa (sp?), Wes Brown, Mikel......? I could go on and on.

That's even before considering all the non-elite players than have been part of the scrap for Wenger's later day Goons, Brendan's Liverpool and even us in past years... Been some bang average players at United in more recent times too.

Even with their endless financial muscle current day City don't guarantee a line-up of XI worldies which is what you were originally implying should be the case with "all top 4 teams".

ok lets re phrase. If Liverpool are looking to further improve and assuming they sign Fekir and Alisson.

The full back area is the next weakest link. Are you gonna tell me im still wrong?
 
We gained 10 points less last year playing our home games Wembley compared to our last season at the Lane.

Big numbers that would easily have had us as Man City's closest challengers by some distance

I think we'd have generally found our form quicker and picked a few more point up on the road as a result too. Half the shame last year was that no-one really did mount a challenge so we don't know how they'd have responded under genuine pressure...
 
Klopp really is a laughing stock.
Says he wouldn’t spend big money even if he could. Realises he’s got no hope of challenging if he doesn’t, relinquishes all his “principles” and ends up spending stupid amounts on a second rate keeper, to add to the stupid amount he paid out for Van Dick.
What a gurning fucking tramp he is.
 
Healthy Tottenham is better at every position compared to Liverpool with current squads.

Fight me.
You are not entirely wrong.
World champion Lloris>Allison
Trippier>TAA
Rose>Robertson
Vertonghen>VVD
Alderweireld >Lovren (and I know he is world's best defender)
Wanyama>Fabinho
Dembele>Keita
Son=Salah
Moura=Mane
Kane>>>>>>>>>>>Firminho
Alli>>>Ox
Dier>Milner
Aurier>Clyne
Davies>Moreno

Poch is also more handsome than Klopp

Liverpool will have a strong squad. They did last season and will have again.

Salah will do well to repeat last season's performances but in Keita and if they sign this Brazilian goalie they will be a big big threat, especially if both settle quickly.

I see no reason to belittle or deny other team's quality.

We were their equal and arguably better last season, despite their Champion"s League heroics but we must not and cannot rest on our laurels.

The same 6 clubs again in the mix and maybe 1 from the pack would be the quite easy prediction.

I like the way you excluded Eriksen so as not to humiliate the scousers
 
That’s because they have no one to compare to Ericsson!
