What how why?
If you look at the “zones of control” last season compared to this, Arsenal do have more defensive control and are closer to City’s level of control compared to last year
So expect more 1-0’s instead of 3-1’s. This brand of Football is “more likely” to win it but City are still City and haven’t had KDB either. They will walk the league by 10+ points
To be fair the “boring football” opinion could have been used to describe most teams in the PL at some point in the last few decades, whether they are winning or fighting relegation.
My hot take is that there should be a bonus point system, 3 points for the win + 1 extra point for scoring 4 goals, or 0 points for a loss, but 1 point for losing by a single goal.
Teams would chase goals more rather than being happy to sit back and defend their 2-0 lead.
Mate.
We might be more likely but the refs and VAR will make sure that our chances are as low as possible.
