Top 3 will be Arsenal, City, Liverpool with Newcastle and Man U finishing 4th and 5th.

Trossard will be one of our better attackers this year and will get 14g and 8a.
Havertz will integrate well and will slowly become perfect for the Xhaka role, racking up 8 goals and 10 assists.
Our defence will be the best in the league
5 players score 10+ (Saka, Jesus, Trossard, Martinelli, Ode)
Timber will be the signing of the season.
I will love the away jersey by mid season.

I'm not convinced Liverpool will be any good this season ngl. So far they've really not done that much in the transfer market compared to what they need — they've just been one in, one out on midfielders. I think they'll probably still make Europe but I'm not convinced they'll make CL.

[-] Gingerrific@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I know it's a bold statement to make, but out of all the top teams that struggled last year they seem to be the one team who could improve the most.

Newcastle should finish 3rd, but I have this feeling Klopp will have Liverpool playing very well this year and they won't be the pushover they were last year.

I've pencilled in United for third, actually. Actually having a striker, even if he doesn't end up that great, should help a bunch, as should having an actual keeper.

[-] Gingerrific@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A new starting GK and ST could potentially help push them to third, but I'm curious if they really have the depth required to compete. If they can avoid the injury bug they do have the talent to get to third.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah i wouldnt feel confident about martial as a second choice striker but hey they do still have Rashford as an option (and hopefully not but technically still on the books with no news yet Greenwood)

If they do bring Greenwood back I hope they get swapped with FCUM

My prediction:

Arsenal
Man Cheaty
Man United
Liverpool
Aston Villa

(Top five could get Champions League depending on UEFA results.)

Newcastle
Sp**s
I don’t care anymore.

I think Newcastle will fall off. Last year was cinderella like, and I can see them losing dumb away games, especially with CL now a huge distraction. Anyway, after #1 I don't really care.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

oh right the new fucking CL rules. ffs lol

I think Villa will be a dark horse for Europa football, they were good end of last season and they have signed some good players.

[-] coygsu@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

United is finishing 7th. I'm not buying the Onana hype.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Just gonna say it right now: we're gonna win at least one of the PL, FA Cup, EFL Cup, or CL. This season. Nelson is gonna have a breakout season in the CL. And Spurs are gonna miss Europe again.

[-] Gingerrific@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I have the feeling Spurs will play well stylistically but will struggle to pick up points when Kane either stop scoring or gets hurt.

Their defence is bad, and unless their new keeper is a brick wall I expect them to let in a lot of goals.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

If they keep Kane they're the stupidest management team this half of the Premier League. (mostly cuz Chelsea is bottom half, but still.) He's gone in a year; take the money and reinvest.

[-] Gingerrific@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh you better believe this is the hill Levy dies on. Doesn't sell Kane, doesn't make CL, Kane leaves on a free (guessing United at this point), a rebuild is declared and Son ends up being sold (he will have a terrible season as he gets slower + older) and Spurs turn into mid table team.

[-] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Not going to predict standings but just minor things, we will win both NLD fixtures and we will beat City at least once in either cup or league matches.

Relegated: Wolves, Luton, Sheffield

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think Luton might surprise all of us tbh, West Ham is who I'd pick for the third to go down. Sean Dyche's got that dawg in him for Everton.

[-] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I do believe Maguire may end up being a good signing for West Ham, so I don't see them going down. Sheffield will probably play the manager merry-go-round, they'll probably go back down and Leicester back up.
