I also have a feeling Everton is going to nick it. Liverpool is in total disarray. Citeh can't win away. That was a bad loss for Pompey at Sunderland today -- those are the ones you gotta win. I agree Villa's not quite ready for prime time, and I'm not sold on Blackburn. Plus, if Sparky should leave for the Toon gig, what effect will that have on Rovers?

If the Stealers have a sig run in the Cup and/or 'Champions' League that may bring with it injuries to key men, letting in one of the other contenders.

A huge advantage for Villa is that they play the least amount of games until the end of the season. Granted, they still have to go to Anfield, Emirates, and Old Trafford but it'll be interesting to see how they perform down the stretch.

And am I the only one who thinks that it isnt ManCity's lack of a 'good' striker as much as its Sven's tactics? I mean, I dont remember England being a very offensive, goal scoring squad during his reign. And one would think that Petrov, Elano, Bojinov, Bianchi -- although relative unknowns and newbys -- are still capable. And lets not forget Vassel and Mpenza can still cut it.

I agree. I think it is about 90% that Liverpool finds some form and takes it.

I think that City have to be second favorites, provided they get a striker.

Likely Everton but don't sleep on Blackburn. City needs a striker bad!

Derby, we are going to march up the league in a surprise move that no one saw coming. Ok back to reality, I would pick Everton.

It's either going to be Manchester City or Everton. To me the lean is towards Everton. While Manchester City's home form has been nothing but ridiculous, getting results away have hurt them.

Don't underestimate what turmoil can do to a squad. Liverpool may have all the talent, but with all the internal problems they will continue to drop points they should have no problem getting.
