thats already pretty good depth centrally, not even including failures like drinkwater of bakayoko.

With wide players like Pedro, Willian, Pulisic, Hudson Odoi & Giroud, Abraham and Batsuayi up front I still think they have enough depth to be right up there in the top 4.

I compare that with:
Arsenal
Terreria, Xhaka, Elneny, Ozil, Mkhtaryian with Lacazetee, Aubemayang and Iwobi and a defence that is still awful

Manu
Pogba, Matic, Lingard, pereira, Mctominay, with Mata, Martial, Rashford, Lukaku, Sanchez & James.

Still convinced Chelsea is better resourced.
Look at that Chelsea midfield and tell me they can create anything. Kante was the one setting up last season, that's how bad Kovacic and Jorginho are in the final 3rd. They can control the ball and cover defensively but without a Hazard to create something from nothing they aren't going to do much with all that possession.

Even United's shambles of a midfield could at least do something offensively. United are a good about for 6th given their issue right now, but I wouldn't be surprised if they finished above Chelsea with a couple of signings.

Arsenal have 2 of the best forwards in the league, are about to fix our LB issues and will probably sign another CB to replace Mustafi in the next few weeks. (according to reputable sources) that's easily gonna pick up extra 3 points we missed last year. Spuds will be looking worried soon, they haven't fixed their biggest issue still.
