LIVERPOOL

LEICESTER

THEY are still in a really good place,e, despite missing out on the Champions League. It was a devastating end to the season for them but Brendan Rodgers still has more than enough young, vibrant talent to bounce back.

Holding on to James Maddison

(right) will be huge and I’m a big fann of Ayoze Perez and Harvey Barnes.s.

So Rodgers is still in a good placece and

I expect him to have Leicester challenging for a top-four spot again.

Manager: Brendan Rodgers

Major arrivals: None, as yet.

Major departures: Major departures: Ben Chilwell, (Chelsea, £45m) Calvin Bassey (Rangers, undiscl.).

Title odds: 250-1 What they need: Burnley’s defender James Tarkowski continues to interest Brendan Rodgers but the Foxes are unwilling to meet his £50m-release clause. They could go for £20m St Etienne youngster Wesley Fofana instead.

NOTHING to see here. Move along! They were ruthlessly predictable last year and are the team to beat, but after the levels they have reached over the last couple of seasons it would be only human to see a little drop off.

Look at their team and they only need to add to the fringes of the squad. But Jurgen Klopp knows what he wants. He has been linked with bringing in Bayern

Munich midfielder Thiago (right). Manager: Jurgen Klopp

Major arrivals: Kostas Tsimikas (Olympiakos, £11.7m).

Major departures: Dejan Lovren,

(Zenit St Petersburg, £10.9m) Adam

Lallana, (Brighton, undiscl.) Nathaniel el

Clyne (released). Title odds: 2-1

What they need: Strangely quiet with the champions. However, Bayern’s brilliant holding midfielder Thiago Alcantara is regarded as the ideal signing should Dutchman Georginio Wijnaldum end up at Barcelona.

MAN UNITED

I’M excited by the prospect of Paul ul

Pogba and Bruno Fernandes together in midfield. I think it could be one of the best partnerships we’ve seen.

Both could easily get between

15-220 goals each this season,

Pogba Pog just need to be playing higher hig up the pitch.

They’ve added Donny van de

Beek but if they can get Jadon

Sancho they would look really serious. Manager: M Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

M Major arrivals: Odion Ighalo, (Shanghai Shenhua, loaloan) Donny van de Beek (Ajax, £40m).

Maj Major departures: Alexis Sanchez, (above) (Inter MilaMilan, free) Tahith Chong, (Werder Bremen, loan) Angel Gomes (released).

What they need: Sancho’s name has stopped dominating headlines at United but that’s unlikely to last. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer cannot afford to wait another year – and invite rivals to join the scrap. This is his window of opportunity to strike a deal.
