***The Official English Premier Division Thread***


Recommended Posts

It all kicks off tomorrow. Can anyone break Man Utd's stranglehold on the trophy?

I think it's going to be a very interesting season.

However, don't think Man City have anywhere near the required potential to break the top 4, especially with Mark Hughes in charge.

My prediction:

1st - Man Utd

2nd - Chelsea

3rd - Liverpool

4th - Arsenal

5th - Tottenham

6th - Man City

7th - Aston Villa

8th - Everton

18th - Bolton

19th - Burnley

20th - Wolves

I think the top 4 will be the same as ever, but i really have no idea who'll win.

Losing Ronaldo is huge for Man Utd, but the certainly have cover.

I just dont see Chelsea constesting. They must keep Essian fit if they are going to mount a challange, and if Zirkov comes in and has a stormer of a season who knows?

Arsenal have lost 2 big players, but somehow i dont think its weakened them that much. Adebyeor is pretty pish and Toure, although his pace will be missed, isnt a huge lose IMO.

Liverpool have a real chance this season. Again its all down to the fitness of Torres and how well Aquillani gels.

Burnley, Hull and Wolves to go down though.

3rd Man United

4th Arsenal

5th Man City

6th Villa

7th Everton

18th Burnley

19th Hull

20th Wolves

Chelsea playing with drogba and anelka up-front with lampard at the top of the diamond midfield will be too much for Man United who havent replaced ronaldo and the rest of their midfield is too old/not good enough for the title.

Man City will be good but not good enough for the top 4. Villa will be right up there again and eck will keep birmingham up.

5 Arsenal

Chelsea are just stronger than man utd - have a better midfield with the likes of ballack essien and lampard compared to the average players like carrick fletcher anderson and the ageing scholes and giggs. Lost alot of prowes up front with tevez and ronaldo leaving - although wayne rooneys amazing and owen will score goals i just dont tink they will be better than chelsea this year! plus nani is a fucking liability up there!!

Sorry mate, but Carrick is not an average player.

His vision and passing abilities are second to none in the premiership now that Alonso has gone.

Also, Man Utd are lucky they are getting Hargreaves back, they need a DM.

Owen, Berbatov and Rooney WILL get a shitload of goals. And Macheda will pitch in coming off the bench.

Chelsea only have Anelka as a prolific striker. Drogba's starting to get shite.

i used to rate carrick much higher but he's not been good last few times i seen him and was made to look pretty average by iniesta and xavi!!!

drogba and anelka up front will be looking at getting 50 goals between them, plus chelsea still have deco lampard ballack who are all capable of making and creating plenty chances.

i think chelsea have the stronger side and will have the edge, even though i dont really like them!

would like to see liverpool challenge but i dont think they will be up there at end of season

I can pretty much guarantee you that Drogba and Anelka won't even nearly hit 40 goals in the league this season.

In all fairness, Iniesta and Xavi could make any player on the planet look worthless.

And Deco? When was the last time he even started a game? He's pish in the premiership.

Park is another excellent player in midfield for Man Utd.

Man Utd's fullbacks do so well in helping out the attack too.

It hasnt worked out thus far for deco but the guy is world class and if he finds his form chelsea will be devastating!!

The full backs are good for man utd, i hope that rafael and fabio get a good run out this season, rafael at right back is superb!!

To be honest i dont think man utd are as strong as chelsea but what kind of mad man would doubt sir alex!?

Dont rate anderson, nani or park and think scholes and giggs are pretty much passed it but thats just my opinion. Im a man utd fan over chelsea but think chelsea have the edge!

The league Imo will be decided on the signings still to be made. Man utd will or at least should buy a world class player to replace ronaldo and tevez. You cant lose 70 goals and expect to win the league?

Also i think pompey will go down because they have a shite manager, sold their 3\4 best players and replace them with shite....

Was gonna start a thread on this, but now that this is here....

Does anyone else see Man City's chase of Lescott as slightly illegal? They've already had two bids turned down and Moyes has said that he 'will not sell' the player.

Yet given this, I wake up every day to see Hughes talk more about how he's speaking to people at Everton about Lescott etc and how much he wants to sign him, even though Moyes thoroughly denies that first claim.

I'm really not comfy with the way City are handing this deal.

In general, they've impressed me with their dealings so far, but this one is bordering on the illegal to me.

There's no such thing really, they arent talking to the player yet, they are talking to the club and despite not getting the message that he isnt for sale they can talk to the club all they want.

The only suspicious thing is Lescotts transfer request imo, but then again he might just want to leave.

Hughes has repeatedly said that he's been speaking to the 'people in charge' at Everton, while Moyes has continually denied that, saying that he's the only one in charge.

Kenwright and Moyes are like two peas in a pod. There's absolutely no way that Kenwright will go behind his managers back or Moyes will walk away.

There's something sinister in this from Man City.

Or possibly from Moyes?

Goes in two ways this argument.
