Re: Premiership Predictions 2007/2008

1. Manchester United
2. Chelsea
3. Liverpool
4. Arsenal
5. Newcastle
6. Tottenham
7. Everton
8. Manchester City
9. Bolton
10. Aston Villa
11. Blackburn
12. West Ham
13. Middlesborough
14. Sunderland
15. Portsmouth
16. Reading
17. Derby
18. Fulham
19. Wigan
20. Birmingham

I suppose I'm going to have to justify a couple things there...
The top 4 won't change as far as I'm concerned, Man U have made some good signings and Chelsea have been dormant and look less than inspiring, so I believe Man U will win the league. Liverpool will come a very close 3rd making it a 3 horse race i think, as they have made some excellent signings.
arsenal will do ok, not too well, but hang onto their champions league spot thorugh stubbornness. newcastle have a good manager and a good side combined with a fit owen will almost feel like another 'new signing' - and i think it's their time to return to europe. the race for 4th will probably be more interesting than the race for 1st i think as you have arsenal tottenham newcastle and everton all vying for it, but i dont think tottenham will get their 3rd 4th in a row. I say 5th.
In the relegation battle i think keane will do sunderland proud (so i doubt they'll be involved), and west ham will have a much better season. biggest shock will be derby - despite what everyone else thinks i believe that derby will somehow scrape their way our of the relegation zone - maybe on the last day after a dogged season but billy davies does not like losing (which will result in him saving the club, or leaving them when the first prem job vacancy appears) - if the latter derby go down, if not i think he can save them.
goodbye to wigan and fulham, and brum will go back down again with an uninspiring innings i think.

so yeah, the things which i guess people will have a hard time seeing might be the race for 1st (Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool), 4th (Arsenal, Newcastle, Tottenham, Everton), and Derby's survival in the relegation battle.

Everything inbetween is purely incidental.
