Next season is defnitely unpredictable which makes the bpl more interesting and much anticipated - major changes happening at big clubs...rebuilding by many challenger clubs...and new playing style at liverpool....i m not so sure that the standing order would remain the same...in fact its hard to predict whether the winner last season can retain the title next season...or the runner-up can challenge for the title again...
To completely believe that liverpool can challenge for top 4 is blind faith...but if you take into consideration the many reorganization happening at top 5 teams last season...then why not? at least we are 1 year ahead in our rebuilding under BR compare to at least 4 clubs who are just taken over by respective new managers, barring Arsenal and totenham which have a semblance of stability...
The new season is about adding in personnel that could create new dimension in our play, which makes us stronger and different from the liverpool of last...the real question is, how much of quality the new signings can bring to liverpool...
I am more excited about the execution of our play than new players coming in, to be honest...the sort of interplay, through pass, triangles and movements..but to be able to play those delicate and intricate passing, we need the right personnel...its fair to say that we dont have any marquee signing thus far...but if the low profile signings we made can blend in seamlessly and hit the ground running...which explain why BR made early moves into the transfer market, as i believe they need to assimiliate into the system of play uniquely to what BR wanted to build at liverpool...the rest i borrow from the slogan: people first, performance now
couldn't agree more. hoping for the best as always

btw regarding Gerrard's interview

“It is new for Manchester United. From a biased point of view, let’s hope they have a wobble, but I think they have too many good players to fall out of the title race.
“They have world-class players and I expect them to fight for the league again.”
damn. his PR skills is awesome!
