Katir should works a lot his aerobic in the future. He has the shape of a good 1500m kicker.

If Jakob is bringing his A game (he has been quite tired after Tokyo) he will win.
And McSweyn will be my favorite for the runner up. Stewie has already run a lot after Tokyo but he seems to keep up the steam well.
Guessing Tim, Katir, Hoare, Kipsang anfd Kwemoi will be competing for the next places.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate Stewie’s consistency this season and willingness to take on a race…?
It’s only taken us a moment to forget about Tim’s consistency. Gonna be a real shocker when he comes back.
To be honest, I think Jakob is tired, and won't be the favourite coming in in my eyes
they are all tired. most have not been hitting near PBs the last few weeks

You need to update the photo post-EPO Katir. The typical photo of McSweyn and Katir now will be the former leaving the cheating Moroccan in the dust.

Aaah, by your standards. I see.
What does that even mean 🤣

Tim hasn´t been very consistent this year:
Kenyan trials
Tokyo final
Bowerman mile
I think Tim has peaked. I don´t see him coming back to former dominance.
Ah yes, the runner in the middle of his prime who just set a personal best a couple months ago has peaked.
You Yakob fanboys are in for a surprise come next year 🤣🤣

He would have run faster at Monaco in 2019 if he had chosen to, and last summer if not for Covid. You're crazy Osama if you think Tim is better than he was in 2019.
Tim literally is better this year than he was last year 😭

Running a pb is not the same as 'literally' being better.
Coe ran a pb in 1986, but he was not 'literally better' than he was in 1980/1 or in LA 84.
Having said that, I do not subscribe to the idea that Jakob is only winning against Tim now because Tim is not as good as he was. Jakob is better now, and getting better still.
Oh, and please Sam the Congan, can you stick to one handle? Decide whether you want to be Sam or Osama.

Difficult times for Tim. Next year it will be even worse when Jakob is one more level up (barring illness and injury).
Yakob is as likely to keep improving as Tim is. Their biological clocks are both essentially the same, Yakobs having been sped up by the extra decade of training.
There is not currently a gap between them in ability nor will there be.
"It’s only taken us a moment to forget about Tim’s consistency".
He's had no consistency, it doesn't take a moment to realize that.
Which do you think was the more impressive performance - Tim at Monaco this year paced to 3:28.2, or Tim front running 3:29.2 in the heat of Doha after 2 rounds in 2019?
