Only did the Top 7 and came out with the following:

1. Manchester United - 93
2. Manchester City - 81
3. Chelsea - 73
4. Tottenham Hotspur - 73
5. Liverpool - 67
6. Arsenal - 66
7. Everton - 62

We end up pipping Spurs to 3rd on GD. If anyone is wondering what I predicted for each result its the following:

Fulham (A) - Win
West Ham (H) - Win
Southampton (A) - Draw
Sunderland (H) - Win
Tottenham Hotspur (H) - Draw
Liverpool (A) - Loss
Swansea (H) - Win
Man Utd (A) - Draw
Aston Villa (A) - Win
Everton (H) - Win

Don't think it's asking too much for 6/10 wins from those. There is room for possibly another defeat depending on how Arsenal do. I think Liverpool will pretty much win all of their games now, think I put them to win 8/10. Beat Spurs and 3rd is pretty much ours.

I did it for the whole league...

1. United - 96
2. City - 83
3. Chelsea - 75
4. Spurs - 74
5. Liverpool - 61 (GD 29)
6. Arsenal - 61 (GD 22)
7. Everton - 61 (GD 10)
8. West Brom - 57
9. Stoke - 51
10. Swansea - 50
11. Newcastle - 44
12. West Ham - 44
13. Fulham - 42
14. Norwich - 41
15. Sunderland - 37
16. Wigan - 34
17. Reading - 31
18. Southampton - 30
19. QPR - 30
20. Villa - 29

If mine work out, the final day will be MASSIVE - QPR winning at Anfield and going down regardless, Chelsea beating Everton and Arsenal losing. Wigan beating Villa 3-2 to relegate Villa and keep Reading up.

EDIT: For your interest I have Chelsea to...

Win 2-1 v West Ham
Win 1-3 v Southampton
Win 2-0 v Sunderland
Draw 2-2 v Spurs
Win 0-1 v Liverpool
Win 2-1 v Swansea
Draw 2-2 v United
Win 0-2 v Villa
Win 2-1 v Everton

Seems quite unbelievable now I've written it out!
 
can't see us beating Fulham away or Everton home and think we'll lose to United away but agree with the rest.
 
I think it would fit with the constant soap opera of football if Rafa sent you on a winning run before he leaves.

Fulham are good at home but they don't really have huge quality, and they don't park the bus. Could go either way I suppose but I'd expect you to win.
 
Mine panned out as -

Man United - 95
Man City - 86
Chelsea - 75
Tottenham - 74
Arsenal - 63
Liverpool - 61
Everton - 61

I reckon I'll do a full predictions set later. Probably be slightly different.

true, but Fulham away has always been a tricky fixture for us, they seem to up their game massively.

Not sure how it happened but i came out with Arsenal 4th and Spurs 5th!! Arsenal do have so many winable games on paper but I know they'll drop more points than I allowed for - just knowing where.
 
from what was available:

1. United - 98 pts (game in hand)
2. City - 79 pts (game in hand)
3. Spurs - 71 pts
4. Chelsea - 69 pts (game in hand)
5. Everton - 64 pts
6. Arsenal - 61 pts
7. Liverpool - 59 pts

although United probably won't finish with 101 points, I think the rest is pretty reasonable.
 
Went and redid it -

Man United 94
City 86
Chelsea 75
Tottenham 74
Liverpool 67
Arsenal 63
Everton 61

Reading - QPR - Villa relegated.
 
Why does everyone think we will finish so strongly? Our history of fine run-ins? We have a fit but thin squad, too many fixtures and Rafa. Surely we will lose at least a couple of our last few games
 
Man Utd -93
Man City - 81
Spurs - 78
Chelsea- 70
Liverpool- 67
Arsenal - 66
Everton - 56


Southampton, Villa to get relegated. Wigan still have a game in had so either them or QPR will stay up.

I might be harsh on Everton but they have a tough run in

Everton will have nothing to play for. There's the Lampard last game factor and Benitez's last game so there will be a feel good factor, possible announcement of new manager by then too.

Fulham are an average side. Berbatov is pretty much all they have, rarely do they score more than once in a game. If we score twice we should win. Loss at Anfield is nailed on. United will have nothing to play for, I think we'll nick a point.

I wouldn't call winning 6/10 finishing strongly.

As ****e as we have been this season we've only lost 5 from 28. Some of those wins predicted might be draws but there's absolutely no way we should be losing to any of those sides bar Liverpool and United away. Midtable teams with nothing to play for (at home) are much easier opposition than what Spurs have (tough teams at the top) and What Arsenal have (teams fighting relegation and away to teams with good home records)
 
What are the games that aren't on the list? I did the whole thing and 6 teams have only played 37.
 
Based solely on form, especially "big game" form ,I can see something like this.
Fulham Draw
W Ham Draw
Southampton Win
Sunderland Win
Spurs Draw
Liverpool Lose
Swansea Draw
United Lose
Villa Win
Everton Draw

We would be extremely lucky to get 4th place.
However, if anyone on here was any good at predictions, they'd be living on the Riviera, sailing a yacht and supporting Monaco !!

Mate - don't be so pessimistic!

Arsenal have done much better than I anticipated. I predicted 10 points from the fixtures we had and so far we have 10 so are on course for our 73 point target.
 
I think we'll get 4th. It'll come down to our game against Spurs. I hope Villa somehow beat United tonight so they have to win on Sunday!
