I have nothing to add, my league table looks a lot like that.

However I think we will win the FA cup :)

It will be interesting to see if Arsenal sign Khadera and keep their team fit (at one point in March they had eight of their strongest XI out). And if we keep our players fit too, that'd be nice.

Could go to the final day with City Chelsea and Arsenal all being able to win it.


Swansea to finish bottom, Burnley to go down too. Any one of about six or seven clubs to join them.

It will be extremely difficult to win two in a row. More teams have strengthened to a greater degree than did at the start of last season. MANUre will revert to scabbin' off refs under Van Snaal than they did with Wee Davey and I can't see CFC dropping points this season to the teams they did last. A tough season beckons but anything can happen in football. Here's to a weekly misfortune stumping up at Swamp!!

I do like the look of that. 1 more year for the rags outside top 4 will make a lot of difference in the medium term

Gut feeling is that Chelsea will win the league. They've strengthened well in key areas and have trimmed their squad of baggage. Obviously they're hugely experienced as well, and as much as people claim Liverpool threw the title away last season, in reality Chelsea did, doing jobs on their rivals but chucking away routine games. Now Mourinho's had a full summer to shape his squad i think they'll be the team to beat.

We'll be there or thereabouts, but we still need that quality centre-half and possibly one other attacking midfielder. Fernando should be a good buy, and the other two are definite upgrades, but there's nothing to really whet the appetite thus far. Hopefully the Toure debacle won't have a negative effect.

Arsenal improved quite significantly last season bar the big game drubbings. Sanchez could be a huge buy for them. Questions remain about their mental toughness, but players like Szczesny, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Ramsey and Walcott have all made huge progress over the last two years and on their day they can outplay anybody. Think ending their hunt for silverware might spur them on now and they've got a hell of a lot of money to spend.

Hard to say how United will go on. They're not going to finish 7th again, sadly, but I'm not sure van Gaal's quite the genius the tabloids would have you believe. His Dutch side were quite drab and defensive aside from the impressive win against Spain, so I can't see United suddenly knocking it about, and ultimately their players aren't as good as those at rival clubs. They do still have van Persie and Rooney, though, who will always be dangerous, but de Gea's the only senior player there who's improved over the last couple of years.

I'd expect that to be the top four and in that order. Liverpool should drop off a bit after selling the best player in the country, Spurs will improve under Pochettino but will need time, Everton's season will depend on how they replace their loanees of last season.

1) Chelsea
2) City
3) Arsenal
4) United
