Spurs top four, Man Utd fifth?
- Updated: October 4, 2016
Charlie Nicholas has reassessed his pre-season predictions after the opening weeks of the 2016/17 Premier League season.
With seven games played, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City sit top of the table, having won six of their matches so far, while Tottenham are the league’s only remaining unbeaten side.
Having missed out on a place in Charlie’s original top four, have Spurs done enough to make the grade this time around? Read on to find out…
My original top four was Man City, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool, but I would change that having watched the first few games of the season.
Man City still look really strong, despite the slip-up against Spurs, although I do think Pep may have concerns about some of his players now.
Aleksandar Kolarov is not a centre-half and he may even have worries about him playing at left-back too. He is great on the ball, but looks weak defensively. Gael Clichy is the same, and I don’t know his preference between Bacary Sagna and Pablo Zabaleta.
John Stones has been on the bench a few times too so it seems to be a confusing picture at the back. Still, despite all that, they’re top of the Premier League!
Arsenal stay second …
