Big takeaways for me. People say Mikel is Pep-lite, but he's clearly heavily influenced by the history of English football. The comp for us this season is Manchester United 2008 / 09 (won the league, but lost in CL final to Barcelona).

- tall, technical striker (Havertz / Berbatov)

- young dynamic wingers who can score 50+ combined goals (Saka, Martinelli, Trossard / young- Cristiano, Rooney, Tevez)

- a PFA team of the year spine (Odegaard - Rice - Saliba - Raya / Scholes - Carrick - Rio - Van Der Sar)
