Summary
Jimbo’s back! And so are Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and Adrian Clarke as the 2024/25 Premier League season dawns upon us.
Man City are aiming for a fifth title in a row - can Arsenal stop them after two second place finishes? Or will it be Liverpool in Arne Slot’s first season in charge?
Are Maresca and ten Hag the managers under most pressure after the events of last season and this summer? And will the three promoted clubs go straight back down again?
Plus a big Fulham prediction, the Ipswich player who could be the answer to England’s problems and why there are so many southern teams in the Premier League this season.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
