Joleon Lescott won two Premier League titles at Man City (Picture: Getty) Joleon Lescott revealed his Premier League title prediction after Arsenal’s Community Shield victory over Manchester City. The Gunners lifted their first Premier League trophy since 2004 back in May, finishing seven points above Man City after a tense title race. Mikel Arteta’s side sent a clear message to their title rivals in Sunday’s Community Shield, thumping Manchester City 3-0 in Enzo Maresca’s first competitive game in charge. Man City remain second-favourites to win the Premier League with the bookmakers ahead of Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea, who are all hoping for significant improvements this season.

Liverpool won the Premier League two years ago but title-winning boss Arne Slot lost his job at the end of last season after a disappointing fifth-place finish. There is far greater expectation on Man United after Michael Carrick guided the Red Devils to a third-place finish after replacing Ruben Amorim midway through the campaign. Chelsea, meanwhile, finished just 10th last term but are widely expected to improve under former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso. Arsenal lift the Community Shield after beating Man City (Picture: Getty) Lescott says it is ‘difficult’ to win back-to-back Premier League titles but cannot currently see past defending champions Arsenal, insisting Sunday’s win over Man City would have been ‘daunting’ for other teams. ‘It is very early [to make predictions], but you would say Arsenal,’ Lescott, who won the Premier League twice with Manchester City, told Mirror Football. ‘Considering the key factors, they probably have fewer obstacles ahead of them. [Mikel] Arteta has continuity with the players and the squad now has genuine belief, so I would say Arsenal. Mikel Arteta is hoping to retain the Premier League trophy (Picture: Getty) ‘I know how difficult it is to win back-to-back titles, but that is my overriding opinion.’ Speaking on TNT Sports after the Community Shield, Lescott said: ‘Arsenal are close to where they want to be and I wasn’t surprised by that performance. ‘That’s the worrying thing, they’re at this level so early on.

Amid the doom and gloom at Newcastle United as familiar faces depart and the future looks uncertain, do not sleep on the signing of Bazoumana Toure. The Ivorian winger has the potential to be one of the most exciting Premier League arrivals this summer.
Manchester United are preparing to make another significant academy decision, with highly rated left-back Harry Amass potentially leaving Old Trafford permanently before the transfer window closes. The 19-year-old has long been considered one of United’s most promising young defenders and already has senior experience, but regular first-team opportunities remain difficult to guarantee.

Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique frostily avoided questions about Liverpool targets Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye after dropping both players for their Champions Trophy.
Carrick's strong start to life in the United dugout has led to a groundswell of optimisim among fans that he can oversee the club's first league title since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure.
Paul Scholes has questioned Chelsea’s transfer strategy this summer (Picture: The Overlap) Paul Scholes has accused Chelsea of going from one extreme to the other with their transfer strategy during the summer window. Xabi Alonso’s appointment as Liam Rosenior’s permanent successor has coincided with a significant change in direction for a club that endured another chaotic season last term that saw the Blues fail to qualify for Europe. As such, Chelsea have largely relented from signing untried youngsters from Europe and South America, instead focusing their recruitment drive on Premier League proven players. The arrivals of Morgan Rogers and Maxence Lacroix typify that new approach, driven by Alonso whose job description as manager, rather than head coach, is no coincidence. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. Indeed, the former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder made it clear he would only accept his new role on the proviso he would have a greater say on incomings and outgoings. Having been forced to abandon his pursuit of Granit Xhaka, Alonso has had a major hand in the shock signings of Danny Welbeck and Jordan Henderson, who will both be expected to assume senior leadership roles in a dressing room that has sorely missed those qualities, particularly since the departure of Thiago Silva. Chelsea collected a record eight red cards last season and regularly threw away leads, but Scholes has questioned how much of an impact their two new veterans will have if they aren’t on the pitch regularly. Chelsea tried to sign Granit Xhaka earlier this summer (Picture: Getty) He told The Overlap Fan Debate: ‘Those two older players, it feels you’ve gone from one extreme to another, I can’t get my head around it. ‘You’ve got a load of 21-year-olds, alright get some more experience at 28 or 29 but they’re like 37 or 38. ‘I get the Xhaka one, he’s still a good player and he was brilliant in the World Cup. ‘I think that’s where he’ll expect the most and that’s where they’re going to have most influence on the training pitch because they’re not going to be playing all the time, especially Henderson. ‘Welbeck will still come on but that’s where they’re going to be most valuable. Look if Chelsea have got money to waste doing that then it’s down to them isn’t it.’ Jordan Henderson joined Chelsea from Brentford (Picture: Getty) Those sentiments were echoed by Jamie Carragher who was particularly puzzled by the signing of his former Liverpool teammate Henderson. The ex-Liverpool captain, now 36, has endured something of a nomadic career since leaving Anfield three years ago with his career taking in brief spells at Al-Ettifaq, Ajax and Brentford. ‘I find it strange because I think the signing from Crystal Palace is really good,’ said Carragher of Chelsea’s decision to bring Henderson and Welbeck to the club. ‘You’ve got a lot of young centre backs, he comes in, he knows the league and he’s an experienced player. ‘But you’re talking about the issue on the pitch in terms of red cards and losing leads, throwing leads away. How much are they going to be on the pitch, Henderson and Welbeck? ‘That’s my point, if they were 28 or 29 say like Tielemans in that age bracket. I know they’re going to be great on the training pitch and we’ll be getting hit with those stories if Chelsea make a great start it’ll be Henderson and Welbeck are great in the dressing room. Danny Welbeck joined Chelsea from Brighton (Picture: Getty) ‘In terms of helping Chelsea with discipline which Chelsea need or helping see games out they could come on the last 10 or 15 minutes of games. But what Chelsea need help with is that experience on the pitch. ‘I understood Henderson going to the World Cup. People said he’s not going to play that much, but it’s only a six-week tournament, there’s going to be players who don’t play but when you’ve
