Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

Time for the annual "predictor" competition. Last year nobody came close - thanks to Spurs and Newcastle!

So as usual, I'll start.

1. Man Utd
2. Chelsea
3. Arsenal
4. Everton
5. Liverpool
6. Spurs

Re: Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

A bit of a shot in the dark until you see who all the big teams buy in the summer, but in the meantime I'll go for:

1) Man Utd
2) Chelsea
3) Arsenal
4) Liverpool
5) Spurs
6) Aston Villa

I reserve the right to come back in Aug and change that list

Spurs and Villa will both put more money in than Everton. Whilst that's no guarantee of success, it may prove decisive.

Re: Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

I;m sure I'll think different when the transfers are done and the new Chelsea manager is confirmed but here goes;

1; Man U
2; Liverpool
3; Chelsea
4; Arsenal

5; Villa
6; Everton

I expect the top 4 to be very close though, only a handful of points in it especially between Chelsea and Arsenal who will have similarly weird seasons (Arsenal continuing to mature and adding lots of new players, Chelsea rebuilding after so many players leave). Man U and Liverpool will be the top 2 because of their stability so they will be out of the blocks quickly.

Re: Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

I'm hoping Pompey will finish in the top six next season. They could have easily have finished fifth if they had played as well as they had earlier in the season but instead they got one point out of their last five games. Still managed to finish eighth though, so not too bad.

We should sign a few players over the summer as well.

Ask me again closer to the end of the transfer window

If we dont bring in quality and lots of it then we will finish probably 8th unless get kicked out of all competetions early again like this season so our players stay fresh.

Re: Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

I'd go for...

United
Arsenal
Liverpool
Chelsea
Everton
Pompey

Would have put Villa in 6th but I think Barry will leave and that'll be a big blow.

Chelsea 4th as I think 4/5 players will leave and it'll take time for the new players to gel.

Depressing and predictable though it is (just as it will be in reality):-

1) Man Utd
2) Chelsea
3) Arsenal
4) Liverpool
5) Everton
6) Aston Villa

That all has a worryingly familiar look about it..............

Re: Predict the top 6 2008/2009 Premiership

It really does depend on the transfer market.

If things stay as they are right now, I'd go for.

1. Chelsea
2. Man Utd
3. Liverpool
4. Arsenal
5. Everton
6. Aston Villa

Realistically though, if the expect upheaval at Stamford Bridge happens, I'd go for

1. Man Utd
2. Arsenal
3. Chelsea
4. Liverpool
5. Everton
6. Aston Villa

I also think Fulham will go down this year!
