England’s defeat in the Euro 2024 final is firmly in the rear-view mirror as we’re motoring towards the new Premier League season.
The countdown to the opening weekend is underway, and there’s a lot to update you, dear reader, on ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.
Can Manchester City continue their domination and win a fifth-straight title? Or will Arsenal finally end their two-decade wait?
There are some big managerial changes with Arne Slot stepping into the Liverpool hot seat and taking over from legend Jurgen Klopp.
Chelsea also have a new man in former Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca, who succeeds Mauricio Pochettino.
An FA Cup win for Manchester United seems to have kept Erik ten Hag in a job, and Ipswich return to the top flight for the first time since 2002 after an epic promotion-winning season under Kieran McKenna.
