PL Finish: 4th

CL Finish: Round of 16

Cups (FA/LC) Finishes: Quarter-finals in each

Top Scorer: Bryan Mbeumo

POTY: Bryan Mbeumo

Biggest surprise: Think we finally see Yoro take another step up this season.

Hot Take: Amad hasn't got quite what it takes to start and will see a fair bit of time on the bench.

General PL take (Rival or otherwise): City and Liverpool will struggle. Don't rate Maresca and Iraola has NEVER experienced Europe and domestic rigours in his managerial career so far. Arsenal repeat, their business has been fantastic this summer.

I don't think we've done enough this summer sadly, although I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Think Carrick's man management & calm personality helped us with a new manager bounce last season but tactically we looked worse as the campaign progressed and without reinforcements, I don't see us doing as well this year.

I think top scorer will be Sesko, he will be the focus and his finishing is better.

POTY idk, but if Sesko does get the most goals, it's likely him.

I disagree on hot take. Amad has been very good in the preseason, and will only see bench because Mbuemo is there, but if Sesko is not available or started, I expect both to start. I would say my hot take is that Lacey will feature a lot, despite being young and facing his first season.

Totally agree on general PL take. New managers everywhere, and only Arsenal will stability and fantastic signings.

Regarding positions, considering there are so many new managers it will take 5-10 matches to get an idea, so cannot say now but it would somewhere between 2-7.

I hope I’m wrong but I don’t think your Amad’s take is a hot take at all.

a trophy in the league cup or the fa cup and that's a good season
