I really like getting people's opinions pre-season - its so easy for people after the season to be all high and righteous and "I told you so"
What's everyone's view for the season ahead? This is separate to the "money where your mouth is" thread which is more about specific predictions
Overall, I HOPE we're relatively stronger to the competition than we were last year - team sheet may be worse, but Lukaku, Skriniar, Brozovic, etc, all missed significant chunks of last season anyway so in practice it might not be 'as bad'.
What else do people think/expect? How will Atalanta do with all their Hojlund money?

- Based on what we see atm, Napoli will still be a strong team next year
- Milan have a huge amount of risk, they could be a lot better, or a lot worse. So many unknowns. I'd say based on ignorant perception, many of those signings won't be great, though
- Juventus have an awful lot of work to do before they can really start re-building the team, in terms of people to offload. I think they'll struggle this season
- Lazio obviously have finally lost SMS, and without extensive funds available, I think they'll be worse off next season
- I'm worried about us in the sense that we're very midfield heavy, I expect us to sign a good striker, but we've got a real weakness in defense right now. If Darmian or Acerbi take a dip in form, we're gonna really really struggle unless we think we can recover De Vrij for some reason.
- Roma I think will struggle again
