Can't wait for the season to kick off.
United are definitely going to be stronger than last year, but I can't see past City for the title for some reason.

It certainly won't be a walk over though.

MOTD and Soccer Saturday will be having kittens again if they win there first 5 games. Bleating on how they will go the whole season unbeaten. And how Pep has revolutionised Prem and world football ;)
 
Who would you put your hard earned on TOD?
I have an Acca on City to win, Lukaku top scorer ;), Huddersfield to go down and Villa to win the championship.
€1,800 return on a measly tenner :).

It's good for a laugh.
 
I don't think Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool have improved enough to be a big threat to the title. (Time for that to change with still a month to go in the window).

City, Chelsea and United for me.

Yeah, I mulled it over for a bit, but really think Lukaku will benefit from the likes of Mkhitaryan, Martial and dare I say it, Pogba around him.

25 goals and 6 assists last season while at Everton, surely he will do better this season?

We doing the season predictions already or yers wanna' wait until next Thursday/ Friday?
 
What's even more scandalous is some editor/ sub editor has actually proof read that disgrace from McGovern and STILL thought it prudent to run it

How the standards of the Echo have fallen.
 
I was wondering what people's views are for the skyrocketing of prices on transfers, salary and agent fees. Why is the inflation going so fast and seemingly random, even outside GB, where the TV-money deals didn't raise that high. And how can this raise be justified?

Anyone has a good article about this?

Supply and Demand. More money is flowing into the game while the amount of talent stays the same. That is a recipe for increased transfer fee's and for salary and agent fee's it's for the most parts English phenomena, which is starting to creep into mainland bit more. Players and agents see this money flowing in and want their piece of it.

I've seen many decent articles, but not one which would cover it all. Will try to look up if I can find some good ones for you.

It will go on until the bubble bursts.
