I would be ecstatic with a top 10 finish. I think 12th is a good expectation.

I was going through that list the other day. Its gonna be damn tough to pick a good team to fit into the budget this year.

Are we still doing our preferred top 4 or predicting them?

It's still too early isn't it? Muppet season isn't over yet so can't really predict with any reason.

Well, neither of them even reached the final this year so I don't see anything wrong in predicting otherwise.
I do personally think one of them will win, though.

And I think many of us are writing Arsenal off a little too quickly. They have qualified for the CL many times in succession, even last season after the start they had..

I can.

That's exactly why. And you think so too.

 

[qindarka]

That's exactly why. And you think so too.

I don't get that reasoning. Shouldn't the fact that they weren't good enough to make the final last season harm their chances this season?
I do still tip one of them to win it as I do consider them to be two of the best teams in the world, not because they lost in the semis.

 

[LegoArmo]

Well, Real Madrid only lost on penalties. Barcelona got thrashed by Chelsea.

Real Madrid vs. Manchester United at Wembley is the final.

Of course. But that is if you follow logic and precedent. Which you shouldn't do, haha. I think at least Real will get to the final by sheer maniacal determinaton, if by nothing else.

I think Real will not have as much competition from Barca and the rest of the league this season and therefore they'll not be firing on all cylinders as much as last season.

Shame to hear about Ledley King. Wonder how his career would have gone without his incessant injury problems.

 

[Kyoufu]

A lot of top 6 predictions for Liverpool.

Personally I don't see them finishing ahead of us, but I'm biased.

 

[Wilbur]

I'm really hesitant to make predictions before the end of the transfer window.

 

[rififi]

I think Real will not have as much competition from Barca and the rest of the league this season and therefore they'll not be firing on all cylinders as much as last season.

I'm not so sure. While we don't really know how good Tito is as a manager, he has a lot to prove, so he will definitely be looking to win every title he can get. Although he is a "new" manager, he knows all the players, how well they work together, etc. Plus, Villa is back and Jordi Alba will be taking over for Abidal.

For the rest of the league, the competition will probably be the same as last year. Valencia and Atletico may be stronger, but not strong enough to make a difference to the top 2. Athletic also have to compete in the qualifying rounds of the Europa League - however, if they don't make it through the qualifying rounds, they will probably be a more difficult side to play in La Liga.

We got... trashed by Chelsea? lulz

Chelsea is gonna struggle to make 4th this season in the premier, and Di Matteo is going to get sacked before the season ends.

This guy believes Adebayor to Spurs is done:

Done some texting around and can also CONFIRM ADEBAYOR has been completed!! Announcement to come soon. Retweet guys.

But then he thinks Spurs may get Falcao. So...

Everyone is tipping us for the title, this is dangerous.

All I want is for Pescara to get relegated and/or go bankrupt.


Really sad about Ledley, one of my favourite English players.

Championship

1. Wolves

Charlton? I hear they have some off the field issues and they don't have the signing power they had last summer. Infact I believe they're yet to make a signing this summer? If any of the 3 promoted sides are to do well in The Championship on the back of momentum I'd bet Huddersfield at this point.

 

[Kyoufu]

Has this Robben traveled from the future? There's another one in the background!

Hadn't heard of the off field issues, just guess work really. Always thought they had a strong infrastructure, a good young manager, plus I have a soft spot for Charlton. The Championship's a crap shoot though, such a competitive league.

Newcastle gonna be relegated bro.

damn I can't wait for club football to come back for real

 

[Timurid]

WOOT Torino just beat Sappada 17-0!!! It wasn't really an even match to begin with, but its cool to see your team play like that. I'm excited for this season finally back in the Serie A. Hopefully we will finish at mid table this season anything higher than 11 and I'll be very happy.
I'm just hoping ogbonna doesnt get pick up by ac shit. Alot you guys are underestimating arsenal again. Arsenal always made it to the top 4 and last season we finished 3rd after 3 star players left. I dont see RVP leaving this summer because if he wanted to leave he would of left by now. Plus, we can still have a one or two new signings.
my prediction for the epl
City
Utd (if utd get a quality CM this summer than i would move them to first)
arsenal
chelsea
liverpool
spurs
newcastle

Just saw highlights of Uniteds friendly.

Slightly alarmed and disappointed at how fat Anderson looked.

17-0? Fuck me. I always used to be Torino on like FM2005 because I liked their kit. What does it look like this year?

I'm loathe to rule out Arsenal because they always make it to fourth, but I hope Rodgers and AVB aren't written off as failures if they only finish 5th and 6th for a while.

 

[dc89]

I LOVE that shirt.

Any one know where I can buy it with Aguero printing. Soccer Triads don't do it. Don't mind paying proper money for one either.

HELP MESSSI!
