Breaking it down:
- I don't see why, short of major investment (which is unlikely) any team that finished below us this year should finish above us next year, so looking above us
- Top 2 out of sight - end of story I'm afraid
- Man Utd - have upward momentum, a well invested squad, some good young players (including the best young player I've seen in a long time - Greenwood is very special), cash to burn and the lure of the CL. A new GK would save them a ton of points. I'm worried they'll be difficult for us to catch
- Chelsea - adding some very good attackers, their young players will be a season more experienced, and will have money as well. Again, I worry that we won't catch them either
- Leicester - I'm not worried about them
So in terms of the Prem (some of these might be conservative):
- Par is 5th
- 1 in 25 chance of getting in the top 3
- 1 in 7 chance of finishing top 4
- anything below 5th is a failure
In terms of cups:
- no bloody idea I'm afraid
