    if spurs can keep bale and buy a world class striker, they will be up there. if they continue with adebayor and defoe even I'll want them to fail.

    Chelsea, I don't see any of the other managers getting the better of Jose.

    I think Liverpool are still a long way off from being able to compete for the title.

    I'd hate to see Chelsea win it.... then again I'd hate to see United and City win it too. Mostly don't want to see Mourinho succeed though.

    I think this could be Arsenals year with a few new signings.


    Liverpool will finish 5th this year, Spurs will drop down a bit. Villa will finish top 10 as will Swansea, Everton and Southampton.

    Norwich, Palace and Stoke to go down.

    Hull to surprise a few.

    A lot depends on signings but I'd say -

    City, Chelsea, United, Arsenal.

    Spurs, Liverpool, Swansea, West Brom.

    Everton, Newcastle, Southampton, Villa.

    West Ham, Fulham, Stoke, Norwich.

    Sunderland, Cardiff, Hull, Palace.


    I know it's a cop out to say the 3 promoted sides will be relegated but that's how I see it. Hull aren't all that as a team and Steve Bruce is their manager. Fryatt, Aluko and Boyd are good, a lot of them are unknown quantities in the prem so who knows, but the rest are players like McShane, very low-end Prem players. Don't particularly rate Bruce, that's the main issue.

    Holloway doesn't know how to set his sides up defensively which is fine in the Championship but they'll get punished in the prem and concede 70+ goals like his Blackpool side did.

    Cardiff have the best chance of staying up but; neither Villa nor Newcastle will battle relegation this time imo, Sunderland might lose Sessegnon (sp?) but Di Canio and a bit of money will probably see them safe....Norwich will have strengthened and Stoke will do better under Hughes imo and they will have strengthened also.

    West Ham won't go down under Allardyce and I can't see Fulham going down either. Southampton should be fine.

    Even with Suarez and a few decent signings I can't see Liverpool breaking into the top 4. Unless Utd completely have one, it would mean them overtaking Arsenal, and the gap was 12 points last year. But Arsenal will surely sign players themselves.

    Can't make any solid predictions until the transfer window is finished, still a lot of business to be done

    20.Hull City

    Might as well predict the whole table :smiley-laughing002:

    I don't particularly want it to finish like that but that's how I, at this moment (not including potential signings etc.) think it will end up.

    Can see Arsenal doing well this year.

    Hopefully they make some decent signings. Always enjoy watching them play.

    Chelsea look like the team to take the league to me.

    Would love Arsenal to do well, they have rotten luck. Imagine if all of their best players over the years stayed and all played well at the SAME time = EPL winning squad.

    Arsene Wenger has been touted to have £70 million to spend by the English media but somehow I don't think this will come to fruition and Wenger will have egg on his face once again.

    Arsenal constantly sign the wrong type of player. They have absolutely no balls. Something that has been badly missed for a long time.
