DISQUS

Anonymous · 2 years ago

I'll not make my definitive preds til the transfer window ends and we've seen the teams in action a bit. But some comments on yours:


1. Manchester United - top two, yes

---------------------------------

2. Chelsea - they'll win it if injuries don't interfere

3. Arsenal - seems too high a position

4. Liverpool - no comment

5. Blackburn Rovers - too high

6. Tottenham Hotspur - they'll be top six yes

7. Everton - depends who Moyes signs

8. Manchester City - top half just I reckon

9. Aston Villa - boring mid-table outfit

10. Portsmouth - higher given the new signings

11. Newcastle United - top half deffo

12. Sunderland - they'll finish lower without looking like going down

13. Fulham - lower lower lower

14. Middlesbrough - just above the drop zone perhaps

15. Reading - won't struggle as much as this suggests

16. West Ham United - Curbs will get them into top half

17. Derby County - candidates for relegation, yes

---------------------------------

18. Bolton Wanderers - mid-table, I think, esp with new new gaffer

19. Birmingham City - there or thereabouts for the chop aye

20. Wigan Athletic - about right

4- Blackburn

5- Liverpool

6- Everton

20- Fulham



I made these picks last week and some like Fulham, Liverpool, and West Ham already look very dated. Liverpool getting 3 pts at Villa park was a mild shock to my system, but I will not change my picks, because that would be cheating. :)

Glad to have you back in action, Gaffer.


I am glad you aren't subscribing to the Tottenham pipe dream. Thats also a ballsy pick for Bolton to go down over Derby.

I'm glad many are now seeing my point of view on Spurs. Picking them 8th was tough for me. I actually think they may finish much lower, and after all this talk this summer that they would pass Arsenal and maybe Liverpool, I have found my self actively rooting against them. Spurs could have brought in the class Blackburn did with Santa Cruz instead of someone as over rated and useless as Bent. Jenas is a complete washout, and Keane sometimes doesn't show up ala Landon Donovan. I maybe wrong in the long run but having fallen for this Spurs thing three times in the past (1999,2003,2006) I am not buying it this season at all. Even when they string together a few victories be assured they will at some point completely collapse and miss Europe all together.


Blackburn is the team to watch for me. I think they are Top 4, champions League material.

why does no-one ever give wigan athletuc any credit? They are great hopes for the top half, around 10th. They have had some great signings and are currnetly 3rd, so please give them some credit...
