Why? Their performances last season left a lot to be desired - they seemed to always be nicking points late on and relied heavily on 1 player to score them the goals that got them the points they did. And they've seemingly made little to no improvements over the summer.
I was expecting the continued rise of Kane and particularly Eriksen, along with the improvements made to the back 4 to really help them kick on.
Also I figured that the extra time working under Poch (A manager I'm a big fan of) would leave them more settled and able to perform better.
