The new English Premier League season has begun, and the publication Sideline Story analyzes all key issues. The question arises whether Arsenal, under Mikel Arteta, can shed the status of reigning champions and achieve a second title, or if a new contender for victory will emerge amid the revolution in coaching staff in the EPL.
A number of changes in the clubs are being discussed: the revival of Manchester United under Michael Carrick, the unpredictable potential of Liverpool under Andoni Iraola, and possible difficulties for Manchester City after Pep Guardiola's departure. Analysts are discussing which of the new management projects will be successful and which will fail.
Furthermore, the topic of financial investments in the league is raised. Since Premier League clubs spend more money than the five leading European leagues combined, it is questioned whether such large expenditures guarantee glory or merely artificially inflate market value.
