Brighton have already taken some injuries and look to be falling off.
I actually disagree about Arsenal though… I think our depth is pretty good this season. The only caveat to that is multiple defensive injuries, as Tomiyasu is kinda backup for LB, CB, and RB.
I think having Rice and Havertz both boost your depth by a great amount. I also think your defensive depth is slightly better than Spurs defensive depth as Tomiyasu is good quality, just stretched thin in the amount of spots he has to cover for. For us, we have decent fullback depth, but essentially zero CB depth.
I think for any team to be title contenders to Man City though, a fair bit of luck will be 100% required in terms of injuries, though Man City do have some visible weaknesses in their midfield depth a bit.

Yeah - the biggest issue in years past has been when Partey has been injured, we’ve had no backup. Now we can choose between Rice and Partey, or both.
Kiwior is forgotten about often in defence and has looked pretty solid at both LB and CB, and Timber should be back about March.
We’ll see - pointless trying to predict it to be honest lol, it always ends up different
