Bigger Challenge?

Id be shocked if they weren't.

Leeds id hazard, at the first chance they can, will sack Farke, and they may have a chance.

Sunderland & Burnley i dont fear, I dont really fear Leeds either, but no doubt theyll beat us opening night.

anyone can sack anyone

and usually if results are poo
they panic and sack

doesn’t always work

The newly promoted clubs have the harder task. The gulf between the Championship and the Premier League is huge now.

Last season all 3 promoted teams were relegated for the second season on the run.

This has never happened in the any other top flight league ever.

3 promoted teams have been relegated before, but not all 3 in back to back seasons.

Perhaps there is actually an argument for ending promotion / relegation between the PL and the Championship?
Americans are taking over football perhaps it’s time to embrace their non relegation ways?

Promoted clubs aren’t going to have huge amounts of deadwood clogging up the wage bill. Plus their expectations are much lower.

We don't have huge amounts of deadwood clogging up the wage bill. We barely have anyone left on the wage bill.
