I can’t. Only because we are winning the lot.
This season's contenders will be Man City and us again.
But Spurs, Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea are looking a lot stronger.
Out of the four, Spurs will be hardest to beat, because of Conte, whom i rate highly.

True, but that applies to all of them. Wouldn't surprise me if Tottenham finish 3rd.
Good team and lots of depth. But lacks top class quality. The litmus test is comparing their players to those in ours or City's. How many would get into our starting team or into City's ? Very few indeed. In fact Kane and Son apart ... are there any? Nope.
I get your point mate, but I kinda agree with this:
The way Kulusevski integrated after signing in Jan is the latest example.
Yes, but the sum of the parts is still good enough to get you results, and Conte knows how to put a proper team out on the pitch, and make them play like one. He's also a master tactician whom i rate highly. They won't win the league for sure, but they'll be hard to beat when we play them.

Yes but here's another point : superior players + Klopp or superior players + Guardiola !
I don't think they will challenge for the title but should have a much easier time qualifying for CL.
Perisic and Bissouma would be in our first team, easy. And likely Kulusevski too.
In the place of who?
Perisic over Robbo?
Bissouma over Fabs?
Kulu ahead of, Diaz/Salah?
Good players, but not in the first 11.
Maybe not first 11, but certainly good enough to compete. And Perisic and Bissouma could well displace Robbo and Fab
Lol not a chance. Robbo and Fab are miles ahead.
Couldn't disagree more. They are not replacing anyone in our first team - nice to have but surplus to requirements as far as we are concerned.
But he's not a first team starter.
He certainly knows how to make a young player feel special:
| Antonio Conte: “Spence is an investment of the club. The club wanted to do it. I said okay, this player is young but he showed he can become a good, important player for us. The club decided to buy him.” @AlasdairGold

I don't think so. I think Perisic is better than Robbo going forward, but that is about it.
And there's not that much in it even then IMHO.
Disagree. He's not the most technically gifted player we have, but he doesn't need to be. What matters, and all that matters IMHO, is that he's mustard at what we do need from him.

He’s gonna hit a new level with his assists with Nunez in the side.
I read that as “spank a few players back to life”.
I thought we were trying a new pre-season routine.
