cant stand the cnut but i like his comments on silva and johnson, not so much on hart though.<a class="postlink" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1301270/Jamie-Redknapp-My-10-watch-Barclays-Premier-League.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba ... eague.html</a>?
1 David Silva (Manchester City)
He has typical Spanish quality. He might need Yaya Toure to be his minder at times, but if he can get that ball on his wand of a left foot there will only be one outcome.
He will hug the left touchline or drift in and set up goals. He was one of the reasons David Villa was so good at Valencia and one of his many strengths is that he’s happy to make others shine.
2 Gareth Bale (Tottenham)
Could be the best left-sided player in the League since Ryan Giggs in his prime. He covers so much ground and now has the confidence to match his promise.
If Spurs have a big season, expect this young man to be at the heart of it. I wish he was English, but instead he will play against us for Wales in the Euro 2012 campaign.
3 Charlie Adam (Blackpool)
Another left-footer — and what a left foot. He scored bundles of goals in the Championship and I think he might continue to do the same on the big stage. Free-kicks, corners, penalties: he takes the lot.
If he can produce last season’s form, he might give Ian Holloway’s Seasiders a chance. Either way, I suspect he may be in the top flight to stay.
4 Javier Hernandez (Manchester United)
He looks like a goalscoring machine and, at £7million, might prove to be a bargain.
Small, with tremendous movement, this Mexican might find it hard at first because of the pace and power of the Premier League, but if he gets the right service from Antonio Valencia and Nani, expect this little assassin to strike gold.
5 Andy Carroll (Newcastle)
Newcastle have a new No 9 and will be hoping he is half as good as Alan Shearer was. He’s formidable in the air and while not quick, he’s fast enough.
I think Newcastle will struggle, but if this young man can start well and get some confidence, he can have a big season. All eyes will be on this young Geordie.
6 Adam Johnson (Manchester City)
I’m a huge fan and out of all the next crop of youngsters, he should be the one knocking on Fabio Capello’s door. He reminds me of a young Chris Waddle: one shake of his hips and the full back has to pay to get back into the stadium.
We are crying out for young talent and I just hope the foreign invasion at City doesn’t get in his way.
7 Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal)
His performances this season will be scrutinised as never before. Is his mind on the job with Arsenal or is his heart in Barcelona?
This is not the first time Wenger has had to deal with unhappy players. Thierry Henry stayed an extra season and looked an unhappy player. It normally ends up one way. With everyone unhappy.
8 Joe Cole (Liverpool)
Has made a great career move by joining Liverpool and it should rejuvenate his career so he can be taken seriously again. Anfield fans love to see someone open up a defence with a run or a pass and too often it has only been Torres or Gerrard who could do it.
Too often, Rafa Benitez bought average players. Roy Hodgson knows Joe’s anything but average.
9 Joe Hart (Manchester City)
Has a massive decision to make at a very important stage of his career. Does he stay and fight for his place in a battle I don’t think he will win with Shay Given or go on loan and play and so take the chance to become England’s new No 1 goalkeeper?
He won’t get that job from the bench at City and he is too good to sit and watch.
10 Jack Wilshere Arsenal
Not so long ago people would have said he’s too small to play in the Premier League. But Spain’s dominance and the performances of Xavi and Iniesta — two mini-maestros — has changed perceptions.
I still believe that to be that small you have to be special, and this guy is. It’s a big year for England wannabes; let’s hope he is a certainty
