Premier League season starts on weekends, five highlights trigger topics

Football

Whether Liverpool can defend its title smoothly and become the most winning ball in Premier League history is the biggest highlight, and whether Arsenal and Chelsea can go further, the self-salvation of Manchester City and Manchester United is also worth paying attention to.

The new Premier League season will begin on Saturday. There are five highlights that fans have hotly discussed in the highly anticipated season. The most eye-catching thing is how Liverpool, which has just lost the community shield, will start its title defense journey in the Premier League opening game.

Liverpool leads the pole position in the new season

Since the 1982-83 and 1983-84 seasons, Liverpool has not achieved two consecutive championships in the England top league. If it can reproduce its past glory, Liverpool can surpass Man United this season and become the team with the most championships in England's top league history with 21 championships.

To this goal and taking into account the Champions League journey, coach Slot and the team spent £256 million to introduce new players such as Wirtz, Ekitike, Frimpong and Kerkez this summer to strengthen the team.

Although Nunez and Diaz have left the team, Slot is optimistic about the new offensive lineup and is expected to join the shooting foot Isak.

Slott said: "We had a high possession last season, but we were unable to keep getting a favorable situation. Now, we are better at creating opportunities than we have been the whole season." Arsenal is looking to break through the bottleneck after finishing second in the past three seasons, Arsenal is ready to end the long wait for the Premier League title.

Arsenal missed a good opportunity in the championship competition in 2023 and 2024, but was plagued by injuries last season and finally handed over a report card that was 10 points behind Liverpool.

The last time they topped the Premier League was in 2004, and Arteta's only major honor during his coaching period was the 2020 FA Cup.

After spending more than £180 million to introduce Gyokeres, Zubimendi, Norgaard, Madueke and Arrizabalaga, he is confident of arriving in the "Promised Land" in the new season. Arteta said: "We are close to each other over the past few seasons. We know what our goal is. We are confident that we can achieve it." The road to returning to the top is long

Guardiola" Guardiola used all her strength to save the decline of Man City during the offseason.

In the large-scale reorganization after the January transfer window opened, Guardiola signed Ait-Nouri, Cherki, Reijnders and Trafford.

De Bruyne and Walker bid farewell one after another, and Grealish was on the verge of leaving the team, and Manchester City experienced an eventful summer.

Manchester City, which has won six times in the past eight seasons, has looked extremely vulnerable after slipping to third place last season, and midfielder Rodri's durability after suffering a serious knee injury is still doubtful.

After experiencing its first championship-free season since 2017, it is still unknown whether Guardiola's deal can bring Manchester City back to its peak.

"World Champion" Chelsea has a lofty goal

Chelsea has just won the championship in the Club World Cup with a "spooky" and Maresca's "Blue Army" has been in high spirits after the United States defeated Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) 3-0, but whether it can maintain this momentum in the domestic league is worth looking forward to.

Last season, although the Blues' average starting age was the youngest in Premier League history, Chelsea still qualified for the Champions League with a fourth-place finish in the league and won the UEFA Champions League championship after a turbulent season.

Now, rising stars Palmer and Enzo Fernandez can join forces with newly joined Pedro, Delap, Gittens, Willian and Hato, and Chelsea can set their goals higher. Manchester United seeks to revive their strengths, experiencing the lowest ranking since the 1973-74 season, while Manchester United hopes to guide the revival of the new season by completely reorganizing the front line. Amorim's "Red Devils" ranked 15th last season and lost to Tottenham's 0-1 victory in the Europa League final, losing his Champions League qualification.

After the bleak season ended, Amorin spent £200 million to bring in Sesko, Mbeumo and Cunha, facing great pressure to turn the situation around immediately.

In addition to Rashford having loaned to Barcelona, Amorin has to face other variables when trying to awaken the sleeping giant, Garnacho, Sancho and Hojlund may all face the fate of leaving the team.
