Man Utd will only be able to add two players to their roster, Liverpool still have one new player to sign and Arsenal will do their best to win the title.
"How will [team x] line up if Kylian Mbappe joins and Diego Maradona is reborn" is the main topic in the world of online football content. It is almost always meaningless. And that makes no difference, but at least we've managed to make these opening weekend XI predictions vaguely plausible and therefore very boring. Arsenal (against Nottingham Forest on 12 August)
Ramsdale
Bois Saliba Gabriel Zinchenko
Rice Odegaard Lavia
Saka Havertz Martinelli
Goalkeepers, central defenders and wide attackers do not move; Arsenal will bid regularly for Rice; Arteta targets the physicality, flexibility and flexibility of players in their 20s but still experienced; will have more endurance to deal with injuries, change the approach mid-match, and even adjust tactics for certain opponents and matches.
Will Timber and Zinchenko - both full-backs - start together? Would White's take on Tomiyasu's right-back and center-back roles be a huge improvement in both areas? Havertz will start often in the center of the pitch ahead of Jesus or the German who is deemed too adaptable - in the number 8, No 10, striker or winger - to take on a clear role. clear and consistent? Can we count on Lavia to take a step towards Arsenal and the Champions League? Next player to rotate:
White, Kiwior, Jorginho, Smith Rowe, Trossard, Jesus.
How much the changes to the starting XI will cost Arsenal:
£265m (£100m for Rice, £70m for Havertz, £50m for Timber, £45m for Lavia).
Chelsea (against Liverpool on August 13)
onana
James Fofana Silva Chilwell
Fernandez Caicedo
Madueke Nkunku Sterling
jackson
In dire need of a new goalkeeper and central midfielder; Chelsea are long established in defence, with Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella providing theoretically strong alternatives on either side; Fernandez needed a defensive partner in midfield hungry for more depth; There are plenty of options and ways to turn things around in attack, but centre-back remains a concern even with the arrival of Jackson from Villarreal.
Onana will be the new goalkeeper chosen by Chelsea? Can Silva play one more season? Can Pochettino back a three-man defense with Badiashile or Colwill? Is it worth trying to convince Lukaku to try again?
Next player to rotate:
Badiashile, Colwill, Gusto, Cucurella, Gallagher, Mudryk, Lukaku.
How much does it cost to change the starting XI at Chelsea:
£180m (£100m Caicedo, £50m Onana, £30m Jackson).
Liverpool (against Chelsea on August 13)
Alisson
Alexandre-Arnold Konate Van Dijk Robertson
Mac Allister Fabinho Thuram
Salah Nunez Diaz
The only changes to the defense will be how it is set up and not owned; at least one other starting central midfielder will be signed; no need for additional attackers. Uncertainty:
Should we continue to experiment with Alexander-Arnold's position? If so, do Liverpool need a new right-back or can the England international balance his defensive responsibilities with the responsibilities of a reverse midfielder? Can Fabinho get back to his best form? Which midfield signing should Liverpool focus on? What is their most effective attack possible? Next player to rotate:
Gomez, Matip, Bajcetic, Jones, Thiago, Henderson, Elliott, Gakpo, Jota
How much does it cost to change the squad starting at Liverpool:
£35m for Khephren Thuram.
Jurgen Klopp and Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta
Manchester City (against Burnley on 11 August)

Can't touch the spines of Ederson, Ake, Dias, Rodri, De Bruyne and Haaland; there are improvements to
