Both ourselves and Liverpool will finish top 4. An injury to VVD could see us above Liverpool, an injury to lane and we would have zero chance - too many variables.

But Spurs squad now is much stronger and will finish top 4 comfortably

Oh yeah, Tottenham will finish above Chelsea no doubt. We literally don’t have a defence

"Comfortably"

I don't think Spurs have improved that much, Richarlison doesn't exactly improve their front three, actually I think he's rather average. It will help them compete in Europe for sure but that's it as they'll use Kane, Kulu and Son in the league.

Bissouma is a good addition, definitely, and Perisic I'm questioning bearing in mind his age and the fact he's played in Serie A for the last 7 years and the number of transfers from Italy that have worked out is fairly low.

We have lost Mane, but he was already replaced by Luis Diaz who I'd argue will be just as good this season as Mane has ever been, he was a standout performer for the second half of last season and that's without a full preseason.

Nunez, who knows, but he looked absolutely class against us which very few strikers do. So that tells you something.

At the end of the day I don't think the changes at either club will make up the enormous 21 point gulf between the two teams.

I expect Spurs to be better than last year and cement a top 4 place, but I always expect us to be better than last year with a rested Salah without contract drama, Luis Diaz with a full pre-season, and various other factors with the season scheduling that have often proven to benefit us in the past.

Liverpool will probably finish above Chelsea but without mane, Salah will need to carry their attack and maybe they might struggle because of this if he goes off form like last season.

Don't waste your breath on this guy. He's clearly on a wind up. No one can make up 30 points in one season whoever you sign. For what it's worth, we've strengthened the squad but I don't think our first 11 is a great deal better than it was before. Aside from Peresic and Bissouma, I can't see where any of the other newbies get in, including Lenglet who's about to sign.

This OP started another thread on the Liverpool board saying "Who's better - Klopp or Mourinho?" so he's clearly only here to pizz everyone off.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He's a facking loser, I just commented to see if anybody was actually interested in serious debate. Wahl is just another sock account like culer.

Who cares? Mourinho is crap, that's all I have to say really.

I also personally think Conte is a better manager than Klopp and the trophy record agrees with this.
------------
Does it?

Conte:
5 x league titles
1 x FA cup

Klopp:
3 x league titles
1 x CL
1 x FA cup
1 x league cup
1 x German cup
1 x CWC

Was actually surprised at Conte's record, assumed he won more cups.

I would say as it stands city and 'pool will be the top 2 and still pretty clear of the rest.

Then you'll have us (spurs) Chels and utd and arsenal fighting it out for the other 2 slots, I'm not sold on richarlson but we've done some very good business and on paper squad looks to have more depth.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think there's much chance of an injury to VVD putting Spurs above Liverpool. We have four very good options at centre back. An injury crises like the season before last then yes.

Ultimately I think it will be Liverpool and City, who have much better squads than the rest of the league challenging for the title and Spurs and Chelsea for third and fourth.

Klopp has won 1 league and 1 CL. Conte has won 5 league titles across multiple clubs and countries. I don’t care about domestic cups or club world cups, these aren’t real trophies.

I've already posted this to him on a previous article. He obviously chose to ignore it.

Wahl on the wind again.

Psurs fans shoudl be focused on trying to get a trophy and enjoying the football, smae as the rest of us.

City won the league, they are everyone's target and if they are not your club is not ambitious enough

we won two cups, all cup runs need a bit of luck with draw and teams having a go. more clubs ought to actually try and not play reserves imo.

CL. spurs need the luck of the draw same as the rest of us and go do thier best.

the league is not the only trophy available

Spurs have potentially filled in LWB, RWB, RF and CB for conte. a 343 might be likley and then its down to that back 3.

Spurs to finish top 4 SEEMS a good bet. Conte is the wild card with any club he has been to. a better offer comes and he is causing chaos to get out.

Lfc is a different story as we already know what our team will do. Jota got 15 goals and 6 assist and didn't play that much last season from feb to may. thats a 20 goal man right there. Nunez is a hot prospect and diaz will have settled in.


Mane going.... with respect he socred 16 goals in the league and and 6 assists.

Diaz Jota Salah before we even talk nunez joiningg that party. or firmino being 5th choice and getting a decent haul last season despite 3 separate injuries.

title race city/liverpool. Spurs need to bed in 4 or 5 players but could join that party.

Chelsea. hmmm... its not looking quite right yet and utd are miles off.

all positive things for spurs thus far, but it all has to bed in right.

And the Italian one is?

Much more competitive than the German league which has the same team win the title 10 years in a row

And who was it who last won the title prior to them winning it 10 in a row?

This is dense logic even for you.

Conte turned Juventus from a midtable team to a title winning team, he did a great job there.

Sorry, I forgot Klopp managed Dortmund, not Bayern.

IT'S NOT A REAL LEAGUE BECAUSE ONE TEAM DOMINATES IT

Is bizarre logic when the man that broke that domination is having those titles stripped as not worthwhile....

Honestly culer/wahl, even for you, you're having an absolute mare.
