Ok, as its opening day, season predictions-
1. Liverpool.
2. City.
That could be either or.
City are arguably weaker right now and there’s likely the inevitable drop off from last years exertions. And theres been a steely determination, not only through camp, but ever since Mo’s heartfelt apology at missing top 4 last year. This all has a 2019-20 vibe for L’pool. Determined to rebound and shut all the white noise up. As always, injuries and luck will be vital. But one things for sure. Only one side has proven it can live with City toe-to-toe until the final day and I don’t see that changing this year as we resume our 2-horse title fight. Lest we forget, from January on, when both teams were were relatively at full strength,they had they both had the best form records in the Country.
3. Arsenal.
Best of the rest. I’f live them to make it a three horse title race, but I see a lot of weakness in that squad. They’ll be a gap to the top 2.
4. Utd. By default. A good ways shy of thw top 3. But it could be any one of them/ Arsenal/ Newcastle/ Tottenham. I could even see Villa getting involved.
Relegated.
Forest, Sheff. Utd, Luton.
The Ev will be down there again all season but escape late. Again.
First Manager Sacked-
The Luton or Sheff Utd blokes.
Surprise team-
Would have said Villa but I don’t think it would be a surprise given what Emery’s got going on there. So Burnley. I think they comfortably stay up and will be proper entertaining to watch.
Yes. Burnley!
Best new signing- So Boss La.
‘90’s long range webbed goals are gonna’ be back in vogue!
Worst new signing-
The clwn in Utd’s nets.
He’ll help them massively in transition. But he’ll be a way bigger liability than de Gea ever was and will cost them massively over the course of the season.
Top Goalscorer- The Norwegian freak.
Top Assist- Mo Salah.
