1. Chelsea
2. Manchester City 3. Manchester United 4. Arsenal 5. Liverpool 6. Tottenham Hotspur 7. Everton 8. Leicester City 9. West Ham 10. Stoke City 11. West Brom 12. Southampton 13. AFC Bournemouth 14. Swansea City 15. Sunderland 16. Middlesbrough 17. Burnley 18. Watford 19. Crystal Palace 20. Hull City The top 8 could be in any order, it's that close! Don't rule out West Ham being up there again and I guess Stoke could be the Leicester? It feels wrong putting Spurs down in 6th but everything can go either way for all of those clubs! Can't see past Hull being bottom and I think Burnley might suprise a few people particularly if Andre Gray can do it in the Premier League. I really feel that the above could be completely wrong and I've never gone into a new season feeling like that as I always usually feel like I know what's gonna happen. Top Scorer: Sergio Aguero First Manager To Be Sacked: Alan Pardew Championship Promoted: Newcastle, Brighton, Norwich Relegated: Rotherham, Huddersfield, Burton League One: (Always the hardest to predict) Promoted: MK Dons, Coventry, Bradford Relegated: Bury, Shrewsbury, Chesterfield, Scunthorpe League Two: Promoted: Colchester, Doncaster, Notts County, Luton Relegated: Yeovil, Stevenage |

2. Chelsea 3. Manchester City 4. Arsenal 5. Tottenham Hotspur 6. Liverpool 7. Leicester City 8. Everton 9. West Ham United 10. Stoke City 11. Swansea City 12. Sunderland 13. West Bromwich Albion 14. Watford 15. Middlesbrough 16. Bournemouth 17. Southampton 18. Burnley 19. Crystal Palace 20. Hull City Points Total For The Champions: 86 Golden Boot Winner: Sergio Aguero Player Of The Year: N'Golo Kante First Manager To Get Sacked: Alan Pardew I feel like it could go either way in the top 3. I'm hoping the short term Mourinho effect pays off as usual. I feel like this is the season that Southampton's replacements won't be as effective as the ones they sold. Hojbjerg could be good but Redmond isn't a good enough replacement for Mane. They also need a replacement for Pelle as they can't just rely on Shane Long. |

Someone predicting Southampton to finish 17th when I've predicted a Champions League place...
 To be fair, you're probably more accurate! |

QUOTE(Hazza Chapman @ Jul 30 2016, 12:09 PM) So with just 2 weeks to go until the Premier League season. What do you think the positions will look like at the end of the season. Even if you just have a fleeting interest, it's good and fun to make rough predictions, purely to see who was right or wrong. Premier League Table: 1. Manchester United 2. Manchester City 3. Chelsea 4. Arsenal 5. Liverpool 6. Tottenham Hotspur 7. Leicester City 8. West Ham 9. Stoke City 10. Everton 11. Southampton 12. Crystal Palace 13. West Brom 14. Watford 15. Swansea City 16. Middlesbrough 17. Sunderland 18. AFC Bournemouth 19. Hull City 20. Burnley Points Total For The Champions: 83 Golden Boot Winner: Harry Kane Player Of The Year: Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Paul Pogba if he actually signs for Manchester United) First Manager To Get Sacked: Francesco Guidolin Spot on with the prediction for first manager to get sacked. My prediction for the champions doesn't seem to be going according to plan though

I also got the first manager to be sacked correct. Cringing slightly after predicting us to win the league but this goes to show that pre season signings are not everything! |

Glad someone bumped this!
QUOTE(Ðøßßø @ Jul 30 2016, 12:57 PM) Here we go then! (With full commentary to compound just how wrong I'll be!) 1. Man City - bit of a cop out but aside from their defence (which I'm sure they'll sort out) they still have the best squad. Pelligrini won in his first season so no reason why Pep can't (it pains me to say it) 2. Chelsea - think there'll be a huge turnaround for them. Decent signings, a very good manager & no European football to focus on 3. Man United - can't see us going the whole way but our primary aim is automatic CL qualification. We'll start strong but suffer a few wobbles along the way & don't think we'll be as consistent 4. Liverpool - a bit of a punt but it's Klopp's first full season so I feel he really has to aim for CL. After a shaky start there were some strong signs last season which should continue this year 5. Arsenal - controversial but I think this is finally the year they concede their grip on CL sparking Wenger's departure. They badly need a new striker & if they get one I may revise this prediction 6. Tottenham - yep they're bound to finish below Arsenal as per usual. Can't see them scaling the heights of last season & English's shite showing in Euro will continue to affect half of their team negatively early into the season 7. Everton - I really rate Koeman & think he'll be successful. They'll be fighting for Europe most of the season but just miss out late in. Lukaku to have his best season yet 8. Leicester - I certainly can't see them offering a worse title defence than Chelsea last season but all the extra games might take its toll on their squad. They'll start the season in the same form as last mind! 9. West Ham - might take a while for them to adjust to the new stadium but they'll have another solid season without quite managing the same levels as last 10. Stoke - about usual for them, fourth year for Hughes now so good stability & they have a strong squad, something tells me they'll have a good cup run which might distract from the league if they're not fighting for anything 11. Southampton - every season they seem to defy the odds & improve after selling all their best players and whilst I don't think they'll beat last season they should be comfortable again but just miss out on top half this time 12. Swansea - had a poor season last time but I don't see that repeating here. No relegation concerns & as long as they bring in a decent striker they'll play some good stuff under Guidolin 13. West Brom - as ever it won't be pretty but it'll be effective under Pulis. Grinding out results when required with the odd shock should see them never really have any relegation concerns 14. Middlesbrough - on paper should be fine. Great signings in Negredo & Valdés showing their intentions for a promoted team. They'll be the Bournemouth of this season & ultimately survive comfortably 15. Bournemouth - with a fit Callum Wilson they *should* do even better but that's seldom how the league works out. Still they have an enthusiastic young manager who will continue to impress by beating the odds again 16. Sunderland - there's only so many times you can survive by the skin of your teeth but something tells me they'll pull it out the bag again. If they keep Moyes all year they'll be fine but I'm not so sure he'll be given enough time. Another man to come in & the process will repeat... 17. Crystal Palace - I think they'll struggle this season with the form they were in through the second part of last season. Tends to carry over & they'll be in trouble but ultimately pull it out the bag as they still have individual matchwinners in their squad 18. Burnley - could be wrong & they survive comfortably but they'll be reliant of Andre Gray's goals for sure. I was wrong about Bournemouth last season but I'm not sure they have quite enough depth to survive (but they easily could do!) 19. Watford - all the consistent managerial changing will takes its toll eventually & I can see one or both of Deeney/Ighalo either moving or getting injured which will nullify their attack. They to be the "surprise" relegation 20. Hull - have to say right now I can't see anything that leads to me believe they'll survive. Injury plagued squad, no manager (at present) & very suspect owners don't give me much hope of them putting up much of a fight Points Total For The Champions: 88 Golden Boot Winner: Sergio Aguero Player Of The Year: Kevin De Bruyne First Manager To Get Sacked: whoever Hull employ Think I've done pretty well there on the whole! Only significantly wrong about Spurs, Boro & Sunderland. Burnley & Watford both survived but only 2 places above my forecast. |

QUOTE(Rooney @ Jul 30 2016, 01:07 PM) 1. Manchester City 2. Arsenal 3. Manchester United 4. Liverpool 5. Chelsea 6. Tottenham Hotspur 7. West Ham 8. Leicester City 9. Stoke City 10. Everton 11. Southampton 12. Crystal Palace 13. Watford 14. AFC Bournemouth 15. Swansea City 16. Middlesborough 17. Sunderland 18. Burnley 19. West Brom 20. Hull City Top scorer: Aguero First of all, I've changed my mind so much. The top 6 I feel is super close and then there's always the added extra of a real surprise package. I've gone for Man City, but I'm not super confident. It will be interesting to see how they adapt to 'death by football' and how teams try to counter it. I've a feeling their home games could range them being absolute hammerings to opposition teams, to lots of boos when things don't go their way. Arsenal are in a good position, if they sign a striker and another defender then I think they have a great shot of the league. Manchester United.. I'm still not convinced. Mourinho will make them stronger in the short term, but all their positives from last year will disappear. I'm intrigued to see how it all works out, but still some way off being title winners for me. They will try and bin the Europa League off as quick as possible, but even so, playing Thursday-Sunday will really hurt them. Call me biased with Liverpool, but I think we will do okay. Maybe 5th, but I'm going to be really optimistic. Lots of time to prepare, and we were not far away from the Top 4 last year and have strengthened over the summer. If Sturridge stays fit for 80% of the year then can't see us not finishing in the top 4 personally. Chelsea will turn in to the most boring team in the league, I think Spurs will initially struggle. They've strengthened their squad, but not their first XI. Would say all their competitors so far have strengthened both their squad and their first XI. This is where I think Spurs will struggle. IMO West Ham will be fine, but I think getting used to the new stadium will take some time, it depends on ow away teams capitalise on that. After the top 7 it's largely anybodies game.. I think Leicester will do OK but playing in Europe will hurt them and there is no way they maintain that throughout the next year. Plus, they're Champions now. Everybody is going to want to beat them. Stoke will do fine, Everton will be better than last year but still average. Even if Watford do poor to begin with, they will loan half of Serie A come January. Bournemouth could struggle, but think they will be fine still. Same goes for Palace. Relegation spots speak for themselves, Hull are certs to go down. No manager, no players.. recipe for disaster. Burnley again, they might pull a Bournemouth but not convinced so far. That said, I expect Andre Gray to have a fine season. My tip to go down is West Brom. They really struggled towards the end of last season and I can see the same again happening. I think Middlesborough will do OK, but again, they're risking a lot of a few hasbeens. Could go either way, and perhaps do a Hull in 2014/2015. Exicted for the new season, think it will be a good one again. Just please, I don't want any Mourinho/Guardiola or Mourinho/Wenger rubbish. It's tiresome. Fairly terrible.. as per! Mind you everything between 8th and 16th turned in to a complete lottery in the last few weeks. Tipped West Brom to go down.. bad move! Saying that they're in terrible form now. Definitely one to keep an eye on for next season.. In my rationale though I think I was pretty spot on. Spurs didn't improve their squad, but their first XI pushed on. |
