All of the top six bar City and Liverpool have major question marks surrounding them. Arsenal’s defense is awful, United have little squad depth and only Pogba as a creative outlet, and Chelsea are relying on youth and have their own problems at the back.
Yes we’ve been poor but look at the players we’ve had out injured, suspended, or unsettled. We’re also very early in the process of integrating the new signings. It’s possible that all of Son, Dele, Vertonghen, Eriksen, Ndombele, Lo Celso, and Aurier could find themselves in our best XI if they all stay at the club and have their heads on right. That’s *seven* of our top players who have either not been available for whatever reason or have yet to be anywhere near their best — not to mention the likes of Dier, Davies, Foyth, Sessegnon etc!
Let’s not lose hope in this season so soon, there’s plenty to play for.
You'd hope this would be the season where we'd improve and avoid results like Newcastle to make the most of this then wouldn't you?
