almost impossible to predict,

anywhere from 4th to 10th.

Kane is a huge loss, but TIFO_IRL made a video saying Richarlison actually a better tactical fit to Ange.

I think top 3 is kinda locked up between City, Arsenal and United (unless one of them implodes).

Liverpool I think will be good if they can get a #6, so I see them most likely to make top 4.

Tottenham and Chelsea are hard to say, due to new manager and even a completely new squad in the case of Chelsea.

Newcastle, Villa, Brighton I think will fall away due to the European fixtures + longer added time.

I fully expect a bumpy season, or at least until November/December. But I don't think losing Kane is as big of a deal as many would guess. Yes, making up for thirty goals is a massive task and last season Spurs would get into relegation fight without Kane, but there's new coach now, probably strengthened defense and attack seems to still be decent. I'd argue when Spurs lost Bale, they were more of a one man team than now and they survived it fine.

TLDR: I think 6th could be both achievable and considered a success in Ange's first season.

Without Kane, 8th or 9th place and with Kane maybe 6th, probably 7th.

Even with their easier schedule I still don't see them finishing above City, Arsenal, Newcastle, United or Liverpool. I'm inclined to add Villa to the list as well as I think Emery won't do as well as last year but they should still be very competitive.

Honestly feel like Chelsea and Tottenham are in the same boat and they should be fighting for 7th and 8th.

I think they are going to finish a lot lower than people guess. Kane was enormous for them, and without that leadership and goal scoring i think they finish 9th or lower.
