markjazzbassist Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 I would love to hear people’s predictions before the first match of the season. The transfer window isn’t closed yet but just make some fun predictions and we can see who is the closest come year end. Make it as realistic or as idealistic as you want. I went for realistic with mine. I think villa and Leeds will be the surprise teams this year. Watford to escape the drop. 1. Man City 2. Man United 3. Leicester City 4. Chelsea 5. Liverpool 6. Aston Villa 7. Leeds 8. Spurs 9. Arsenal 10. West Ham 11. Wolves 12. Brighton 13. Everton 14. Burnley 15. Southampton 16. Newcastle 17. Watford 18. Crystal Palace 19. Norwich 20. Brentford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 yeah i was confused by Pete putting Everton at 4 as well. I thought he wasn't a Rafa fan. @pete0 honest question why do you think we will finish that high? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Need a scoring system to decide who was the best predictor at the end of the season. I suggest.. Correct position...10 points. Within one...8 points. Within two...6 points. Within three...4 points. Within four...2 points. Within five...1 point. Within six...0 points. Wrong by seven...minus 1 point. Wrong by eight...minus 2 points. Wrong by nine...minus 4 points. Wrong by ten...minus 6 points. Wrong by eleven...minus 8 points. Wrong by twelve...minus 10 points. Wrong by more than twelve...minus however many places you were wrong by. Agreeable? Sibdane, markjazzbassist and pete0 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if we still had Ancelotti... By that I mean the guy we hired last year, not the rat who cost us Europe and fucked off to real Madrid.

Gwlad Posted August 12, 2021 Report Share Posted August 12, 2021 I'd decided on them pre Lukaku and can't help thinking he who knows everything across the park might trip up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
