The fixture list is out for next season, and as always this is the moment where speculation begins about who is going to compete to win the league.
Former Blue Glen Johnson was on Sky Sports, and as he pointed out, following a Champions League win, “Roman will expect a title challenge.”
If he adds a few more players this summer, that will certainly be the expectation. The squad looks as strong as any in Europe, and if a striker joins the party…. there will be no excuses.
