Disagree on comfortably.
Liverpool, City and Arsenal will comfortably take the top 3. Newcastle, Villa & Chelsea are probably gonna occupy the top 6 with their squads and budgets.
If there’s only 7 league places that award Europe again, Brighton are competing for a fiercely thought postilion. It’s not just competing with United and Spurs (who should be doing better) but also the other teams in a similar position to Brighton who are currently having a better season. Forest & Bournemouth have shown their quality, and we have Fulham and Brentford lurking closely behind with similar playing budgets.
