Premier League Predictions: Manchester City Favored to Retain Title, Says Former France Striker Louis Saha
As the Premier League season heats up, former France striker Louis Saha has shared his thoughts on the title contenders. In an exclusive interview with CSDB, Saha predicted that Manchester City will retain their title, stating that they are “so comfortable” with a squad that fits all the requirements.
The former Arsenal player believes that Arsenal, despite playing some great football, won’t have enough to topple City and win the title. Despite adding quality to their squad, Saha thinks that the Gunners will still fall short.
Saha also expects Liverpool to undergo a transition period after the arrival of new manager Arne Slot, following Jurgen Klopp’s departure. He thinks that the Reds will take time to adapt to the new style and will finish behind City and Arsenal.
The former England international also had some words about Chelsea, stating that the Blues have made too many changes and lack the necessary foundation to challenge for the title. For Manchester United, Saha said that they still need to show more and need to make more signings to aim for a top-four finish.
Table Order Predicted
According to Saha, the Premier League table is already taking shape, with Manchester City emerging as the clear favorites to retain their title. Here’s how Saha sees the table panning out:
- Manchester City
- Liverpool and Arsenal (tied)
- Chelsea
- Manchester United
It remains to be seen whether Saha’s predictions come to fruition, but the former France striker’s thoughts offer an interesting insight into the state of the Premier League.
