The media and their support will go into overdrive thinking they can win the PL this season now. It's such a false season though, ourselves hugely and City slightly havr lacked intensity after taking it to the wire last May. The World Cup shutdown means only around half the 38 PL games have been played as we get to mid January. Normally 22 or 23 have been played at this point. Plus the disruption causing all the CL qualifiers to be played in a shorter time period have added to fatigue.
I'm looking forward to seeing the real Klopp v Pep battle again in a normally structured season next year. Be interesting to see where Arsenal, Newcastle and Spurs do then.
