As the new season begins, the teams are strengthened to improve their results. This transfer campaign was also rich in sensations, so we'll see how it'll influence the final state of the clubs.
After the last year's championship of City, many people understood that it's time to choose an absolutely different tactic. Attacking football shown by Guardiola's team literally left no one indifferent. Moreover, in addition to such stars, as De Bruyne, Aguero, Silva, Sterling and Sane, the citizens signed Riyad Mahrez from Leicester. It's hard to suppose how many goals the team can shoot in the rivals' net.
The transfer campaign of Liverpool looks solid too. Naby Keita and Fabinho are the good strengthening of the problem field center of the red. Manchester United has also quickly signed Dalot and Fred. In the midst of this, Arsenal and Chelsea are quite moderate, although Arsenal signed Sokratis from Dortmund Borussia. The main feature of summer 2018 is the accurate selection.
The Premier League England is still the most popular national championship in the world. It guarantees an impressive struggle at all fronts, which lets the championship stand out from other competitions. Now, it's much easier to follow soccer results of the EPL and other tournaments due to the IT development.
Forecasts for Future Season
The squad of Manchester City looks quite balanced and ready to fight. The main competitors of Guardiola's team are neighbors from United. Besides, there are the following rivals:
It's still unclear what Arsenal will be under the guidance of Unai Emery but we can already say that the team is transformed, which is demonstrated by club transfers.
Much will depend not only on head-to-head competitions, but also games with other representatives of the league table, in particular, outsiders and mediocre teams. The skill of winning the points playing with a rival of the lower class is an indicator of mastership. In the last season, Manchester City showed us this. The team gained impressive 100 points and set a new record in the Premier League. Already in the near future, we'll know whether anyone can break this achievement or not.
