They are unfair

That’s probably a very good fixture list, not too difficult opening few months and a fairly decent run in. Christmas fixtures don’t look too bad either.

Second time in 3 years we get the scousers in August as well ffs

But we beat them in August last time.

That Liverpool game in August could be a problem for us. United don't start the season matchfit these days.

Fulham H and a new look Brighton under the youngest manager in PL history is probably as good as you could have hoped for.

Hopefully we get off to a good start and set up a real tasty one against the vermin in MD3.

Dec 3 - Jan 4th we play Arsenal, City and Liverpool all away. 😂

Why do Man City always have easy May fixtures?

Nah it's the week after. There's a week break in the dates.

𝑨𝑹𝑺𝑬𝑵𝑨𝑳 𝑭𝑰𝑿𝑻𝑼𝑹𝑬𝑺 📅

It's a horror start for Arsenal.

Wolverhampton (h)
Aston Villa (a)
Brighton (h)
Tottenham Hotspur (a)
Manchester City (a)

Ouch

They'll win at least 3 of those, and if you're in the title race then you want to catch City early before they go on their trademark end of season winning run.

8 - @ManUtd are the first side in the competition's history to begin a Premier League campaign with a home game in eight consecutive seasons. Advantage.

Aside from yourselves and maybe Villa depending on if they can go again, they basically have no traditionally tough fixture from March onwards

We've got the new Europa and CL formats too. 8 group games. 🙃

Don't forget 2 leg play offs to reach the last 16 for a lot of teams. So 10 group games essentially.

Which 14 games will we lose out of that little lot?

Away to Chelsea on 18th May could be a potential title decider

4th place is THE new title decider.

City have already won the league. 👍

Not too bad really.

The PL seems a bit depressing compared to watching honest football at the euros just now.

How is it an advantage? You still play 19 games at home and 19 games away.

Could be good to get Liverpool and Brighton under new management early on whilst they're settling.

Balanced out by Ten Hag staying.

Lifting the trophy at home to Villa, nice.
