I agree, they’re clearly one of the two best teams in the division, but, apart from when they took Burnley apart 5-2, they’ve not struck me as anything special. Credit to them and a manager I’ve underestimated, but it seems to me they’ll need to be very canny in the transfer market this summer if they are to survive in the Premier League next season.
