Villa just lost their best players.... Im thinking maybe 12th for them.
Going to be tight next season at the top, should be a really close one!

they are considering Liverpool top 4 cuz of the transfer window, like buying henderson for 20m (i cant remember the numbers, but lol at the price tag), downing, doni, and their aim of getting 5 new faces in my the end of the window.
utter crap1!!!!!
their predictions might be this.
1. Man U (Young, Jones, De Gea)
2. M.City (Cause of Kun Aguero)
3. Chelsea (Cause AVB won in invincibles fashion with Porto)
4. Liverpool ( ..... i would say cuz of the plays they bought. practically overrated picetag.)
5. Arsenal (.......... They want to make 6 yrs to 7 yrs., and cuz we are not that active in the window (despite rumors) )
6. Spurs (.........)

Hands up if you thought Arsenal dropped a lot of points from winning positions last season?
The spectacular nature of some of the slip ups tend to skew people's view.
Points dropped from winning positions 2010-11 13 2009-10 15 2008-09 14 2007-08 14 2006-07 6 2005-06 5 2004-05 15 2003-04 10
And Man Utd dropped 14 last season, which is one more than Arsenal did.
Perhaps Arsenal's downfall was more that they struggled to come back from being behind.

Who does the Guardian say will finish 4th then?
Harsh. Apart from the usual suspects (last years top 6) and maybe Everton and Newcastle, who else could beat them?

It doesn't as yet. Liverpool I expect.
That's what I was thinking aswell. I disagree though, I think across the board Arsenal has a stronger team.
Apparently it expired. God knows what's happening tbh - ******* confusing.
so lose hope or something. i mean no way we can fetch 60m like chelsea or city.
Agony!!!!!!
Er. I saw (some of) his press conference. Don't think he said that - just that Arsenal will be there I think.

Don't no why people aren't considering Villa for top 6, they still have Bent, Albrighton and they now have Given and N'Zogbia. Bent will probably be top 3 scorers in the league.

Every team in the league has good players, it's the others ones I wouldn't be sure of. Dunne, Collins, Young, Delph, Heskey, and their manager aren't them of top 8 team. There's many better teams than them.

I think McLeish is a good manager tbh
Because our squad depth is small, and there's no guarantee our youngsters will be able to shoulder the burden. Furthermore, McLeish has had a team relegated twice, it's hardly the best of track records.
