Chelsea - downward spiral managerially, going from Mourinho -> Scolari -> Hiddink -> Ancelotti -> Villas-Boas -> Di Matteo -> Benitez.
Scum - no doubt they will be hit hard when Ferguson goes (can't stay there for more than three seasons now, surely?)
Man City - they seem to have purchased their long-term place at the top table. Still look useless in Europe, and their support is naff.
Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal - no all-important momentum, no hope.
Everton, Villa, Sunderland, Newcastle - constant 6th place ceiling above them.
Hopefully one of scum or Chelsea (starting today in their case) are going to **** up. Let's just hope UEFA don't tolerate these teams fiddling FFP rules, poaching young players and creaming Sky TV money.
Next three or four years, it's gonna end up being a division which is won not by an outstanding team, but one who can capitalize on the failings of others. The bottom line: there's gonna be at least one vacancy up there.
