The most interesting league in the world, the English Premier League with a potential audience of about 4.7 billion people, broadcast in over 200 territories, looks set to be even more interesting this season especially with the number of talents imported in recent seasons. Six clubs namely Manchester city, Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Chelsea are all contenders for the title in the 2017\/2018 season.<\/p>\n
However those spearheading the race at this early stage are Manchester city FC and Manchester United FC. Man United although castigated for their last lifeless performance at Anfield have been previously impressive, scoring in a reckless frenzy. Man City have been typically imperial, blazing past teams with no fragments of mercy.<\/p>\n
Who then will outlast the other, who will be the most consistent at the end of the day or season as you would have it? Let’s take deeper looks at the top 2 teams.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Man city squad is the most expensive squad in the world right now with a team worth of \u00a3751.5 million. Little wonder they have arguably the most enviable squad depth in all of Europe. They possess at least two players in every position who would be starters in almost any other team. Testament to this is the fact that Bernardo Silva is yet to start a single premier league game this season likewise Claudio Bravo’s relegation to the bench. They have a forward as fast as electric and as lethal as the German soldiers in the first years of the Second World War. They currently have 29 goals from eight matches which gives an average of almost 4 goals per game. 5 of these 29 came without reply against Liverpool who are worthy title contenders themselves. Their defense looks a lot better and composed than it did last season with John Stones beginning to pay Pep Guardiola back for the faith he has in him.<\/p>\n
\nJohn Stones was the only Man City player not to misplace a pass in the first half vs. Napoli:<\/p>\n
