Will Manchester United and Liverpool finally occupy the top two positions in the Premier League this season? What about the other big teams?

Question

1. Manchester United team of 2017-18 is excellent on all fronts (Predicted finish: 1st)
2. Liverpool has a devastating attack but shaky defence. Still, their midfield is good. (Predicted finish: 2nd)
3. Manchester City's every player is an attacking player, so they'll surely leak goals due to lack of a sturdy 
    defence (Predicted finish: 3rd)
4. Chelsea has a good team but their squad depth is extremely thin. A couple of major injuries will see them 
    out of players. They can afford to concentrate only on any one of the competitions among EPL, FA cup 
    and Champions League. (Predicted finish: 4th)
5. Spurs will have the Wembley curse hanging on their heads no matter how good they play. (5th)
6. Arsenal, well, they still have Wenger. No doubt 6th finish this season.

These are just my predictions. So everyone here, tell me which team is most likely to finish 1st and 2nd this year and why? I need reasonable answers, not stupid ones like "We'll win because we are the best".

1, City - strengthened where needed and as the season goes on the stronger they'll get. Consider last season, outplayed Everton and lost 4-0. Outplayed Spurs and Chelsea too but didn't get the results.

2, Utd - I've a feeling they'll be grinding out results towards the end without the quality of squad depth and relying too much on Rashford.

3,4,.................... probably Liverpool and Chelsea but f*ck knows which order.

People have been predicting the Manchester clubs to win the league for the past 5 years, it just doesn't happen, Liverpool will probably drop off because they're crazy and can throw matches against crap teams

It is very possible, but you can't count out Man City, Tottenham, Chelsea and even Arsenal. The season is still very young and anything can still happen.

Manchester united look tasty don't they but remember man city won their first 10 games last season chelsea were 6th at that point so everyone ignores chelsea then if we leading the pack they start saying ooohhh we all knew what would happen and stuff. I think man U are in pole position I'd say city second but they sscrew ups so that's a place chelsea and Liverpool can fight for

1. City - Probably have the best squad in the league + best coach in the world + strengthened the backline

2. Chelsea - Have good players in literally every position have a fantastic balance between attack & defence but City will beat Chelsea to the title

3. Pool - Best attack in the league but the shaky defence will cost Liverpool of really challenging for the title

4. United - Signed a good striker and midfielder in Matic but I just cant see United winning the title with that team. United simply dont have enough top quality players to really win the title this season.

5. Spurs have a very good squad but Spurs have no home ground which means they are completely fxcked

6. Arsenal - Wenger dragging this team down might win another FA Cup but wont get top4 or challenge for the title

Now if we sell Coutinho for 160m and sign Lemar/VVD well I think we will fully mount a title challenge for the PL which will be the first time since Suarez left

You could also swap #3 and #4 tho
