    This is what i think aswell, with Chelsea 3rd & Liverpool 4th. Arsenal wont make the top 4 this season and depending on what Spurs do in the transfer market and if Fabregas & Nasri leave Arsenal, I think Arsenal could even finish 6th.

    Tbh I think Man United are going to win the league at a canter this year. Man City are too negative and this will cost them points. Villa Boas should be a good manager but he needs to be given the time to build his own team, that will take more than one season. I am not convinced by Liverpool as I think they have spent a lot of money on average players and have ignored their defensive problems. Spurs have not strengthened, they badly need a top class striker, so I can`t see making much of an impact. As for Arsenal, if they lose Nasri and Fabregas, they will be lucky to qualify for Europe imo

    Ouch thats a massive blow for Ireland as well as Everton. Lets hope his recovery goes well.

    League wise it looks like Manchester United again for me with the London huns and Mancherster City as the main challengers.

    Newcastle have confirmed Shola Ameobi has signed a new two-year extension at St James' Park.

    The striker, 29, is now under contract with the Premier League club until the summer of 2014.

    Can't see past another league title for Man Utd with Chelsea and Man City not too far behind. Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham to compete for 4th.

    1. Man Utd
    2. Chelsea
    3. Man City
    4. Arsenal
    5. Liverpool
    6. Tottenham
    7. Sunderland - Think they will finish best of the rest.

    Think the 3 teams that came up, Wigan, Wolves, Blackburn and possibly Bolton will be fighting for relegation. Hopefully Wigan and Norwich stay up.

    I know im biased but i dont understand why everyone considers Swansea so far behind everyone else, in particular Norwich and QPR. we cooked Norwich last season for a start and those in the know, i.e championship pundits state that we are the stronger of the promoted teams. We have a complete and utterly unique style that is admittedly either going to suit is amazing in the prem or ultimatly see us down but we are not going to the whipping boys Like Derby were.

    and we're much better than Blackpool are. we're not a squad of individual talent, we;re a combined unit, a true Team. if we can maintain our first team i personally think we will stay up. injuries will see us down, we have no depth

    you know what mate, I actually agree with you. Swansea do lpay some very good football, like to pass it about and play as a team.
    Still though, it's a massive jump in quality and I feel that you's need to get some more players in preferably with good Premier league experience.
    Be good to see you guys stay up, along with Norwich of course.

    Im confident in utd winning No.20, theyve got the most depth, right mixture of youth and experience and more importantly the right mentality for it.
    And i think rooneys going to have his best season yet, been very sharp all summer, then sneijder might be joining to.
    chelsea for 2nd city for 3rd with mancini getting sacked round christmas.

    United will walk it, especially if they get Sneijder.

    Romelu Lukaku's first visit to Stamford Bridge last year during a field trip with his school. English Subtitles. Exclusive footage. And now he is a Chelsea player! What a story.
