Premier League Winner Next Season?

Wed Jul 09, 2014 10:52 am

While I can't wait for the Championship to start, the Premier League is also shaping up nicely for next season, and i think it'll be even closer than last year. Always makes for betting viewing for the neutrals when there isn't one team dominating. So who's your money on?

Chelsea - Mourinho factor is always there, and will no doubt make further signings and improve on squad even more before transfer window ends. How Costa settles in the PL could be key to where they finish imo. Fabregas is a top signing as he already has Premier League experience.

Man City - Quality manager in Pellegrini and bucket loads of money to spend as always :lol: They will surely be up there again next year. Cant see anyone beating Aguero to the golden boot if Suarez goes to Barca. Will be a big loss if Yaya Toure leaves.

Man Utd - Highly unlikely they'll finish 7th again :lol: With Van Gaal and many players coming in to improve the squad they will surely be in the top 4 again at the very minimum next year. Does RVP still have enough in the tank to take them to one more title like he did in 2012/13?

Arsenal - Could suprise a few people. Ramsey is turning into one of the worlds best players and Ozil is my prediction for the BPL Player of the Year next season. Sanchez would be a class signing too. They need to step us against the bigger teams if they stand a real chance though.

Liverpool - Were they a 1 man team with Suarez? I think they were. I can see them dropping out of the top 4 next season. Brendan Rodgers is a good manager, but i don't think they will have the players to compete with the other big sides if im honest.

Everton/Spurs/Others - Spurs and Everton are outsiders but will be always be in and around 4th spot. Spurs the more likely of the two to actually put up a real challenge imo.

My prediction is...
1) Chelsea
2) Arsenal
3) Man City
4) Man Utd
5) Liverpool
6) Spurs
7) Everton

Either way, its gonna be good to watch, as the Premier League always is :thumbright:

I personally think Diego Costa will be a massive flop for Chelsea so they will struggle to score goals and come short again.

Man Utd will have a much better season but I don't think Van Gaal will be able to completely transform them back into title winners first time around.

Liverpool will suffer badly losing Suarez.

Arsenal will be serious contenders as long as Ramsey stays fit. However, they always struggle against the big teams and the big managers such as Mourinho always get the better of Wenger.

I think if Everton make a couple more good signings, they'll come even closer to the top 4.

Tottenham are nowhere near good enough currently, and this is coming from someone who rated Tottenham as the most impressive team to come to the CCS last season and I actually tipped them to win the Premiership after they played us.

I will have to go for Man City again, they've cleared the English deadwood which gives them room to strengthen their squad even further.

We're Liverpool really a one man team? Sterling and sturridge scored quite a lot of goals. They've got a very good midfield and £75mil to replace Suarez. They'll challenge for the title again, but I see Chelsea taking it this year.

You'll be suprised at how much of an impact suarez made. You'll only notice the difference once he's gone. Just look at what happened to Spurs once Bale left. You can spend as much money as you want but you cant replace someone of that quality who can change games on their own :thumbup:

Don't get me wrong, Suarez made a heck of an impact at Liverpool, I was surprised they fucked up in the end and city won it. But perhaps Sturridge can take his place? 23goals wasn't it? Anyway the transfer window isn't over yet so let's see what happens there first eh? :thumbright:

As good as Suarez was Liverpool lost it at the back. A centre half, and a left back back will help alot. Sturridge will be the main man, and they have spent well, spurs didn't when bale went.

utd will be 4th for me.

man citu
Chelsea
liverpool
Utd
arsenal
everton
spurs

If there was any justice for the way they play they should win it.
