Who will win the title? Charlie Nicholas,Sky Sports: Manchester City “I am going for Manchester City to win the league again. They have not needed to strengthen much as there are no weaknesses. Kevin De Bruyne has something different to other teams and is an all-rounder in the abilities he possesses - if they can keep him fit they will win the title again.” Phil Thompson,Sky Sports: Liverpool “I think it is Liverpool’s year. This time last year when I got asked the same question, I went with Manchester City but predicted Liverpool would be a lot closer. I said if they didn’t win it last year, they would this year, and I won’t change my mind on that. The likes of David Silva and Fernandinho are getting older, while the injuries pile up. It is a good opportunity for Liverpool, so they will win the league. I think Manchester City will still have a good season and come second, with Tottenham in third and Chelsea earning fourth spot.” John Nicholson,Football365: Manchester City “I’d like to pretend it won’t be City, but it will be City. And by a big margin this year, as I can’t see Liverpool getting within 10 points of last season’s tally but can very much see City doing so, especially as there looks to be about 16 sides they can beat with one leg tied behind their head. This will lead to a widespread feeling of ‘what’s the point any more?’, greater general disaffection with the league as a competition and lots of angry shouting at those who still say ‘anyone can beat anyone in this league, Jeff’.” Joe Williams, Football365: Liverpool “Liverpool. Like a lot of Reds, I have a feeling it’s FINALLY their year.” Phil McNulty,BBC Sport: Manchester City “Manchester City remain the team to beat - they showed resilience and brilliance to put together a 14-match winning streak to see off Liverpool last season and have strengthened in midfield with the addition of Rodri from Atletico Madrid.” Cy Brown,Forbes: Manchester City “Can anyone stop Pep Guardiola and Manchester City? Odds are City will make it a three-peat in the Premier League while angling to finally claim the more elusive prize, the Uefa Champions League.” Aimee Lewis,CNN: Liverpool “Jurgen Klopp has not made any major signings this summer but the squad, bolstered by the return to fitness of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Joe Gomez and the promising Rhian Brewster, looks well equipped to end Manchester City’s reign as champion.” Massimo Marioni, CNN: Liverpool “They’ll be hungrier than Man City, who have won back-to-back titles, and riding high from their Champions League win, though injuries could leave them exposed in key areas.” Luke Christou,Verdict: Manchester City “In a repeat of last season, Manchester City and Liverpool enter the final weeks level on points, but a convincing 4-1 victory over Liverpool all but ends their chances. City wrap up the title in the remaining weeks, finishing with a 6-1 hammering of Norwich City.” Michael Owen,BetVictor: Manchester City “They remain the team to beat although they picked up a meagre 98 points last season compared to their century in the previous campaign. Champions League winners Liverpool look set again to be the main challengers to City as they continue their search for a, hitherto, elusive PL title. The Reds played their part in a magnificent title race last season and they are sure to have their supporters as they bid to go one better, but I just favour City in what looks a virtual match between these two great sides.” Seb Stafford-Bloor,Football365: Liverpool will fall back “Let’s clarify: they’ll fall back from Manchester City, but still finish in a comfortable second place.” Daily Mirrorfootball writers Andy Dunn: Liverpool John Cross: Manchester City Darren Lewis: Liverpool David Anderson: Manchester City SPORTbiblefootball writers Ryan Sidle: Manchester City Adnan Riaz: Manchester City Nasir Jabbar: Manchester City Josh Lawless: Manchester City Jack Kenmare: Manchester City

I may have outlined before how my grandad was a bookie and took my pocket money off me at six years old to teach me a lesson. "Don't be a gambler," he said, "gamblers bought me a villa in Spain." He also taught me what a jinx is. "It's a gobby **** who says 'this is our year!'" he laughed, throwing tenners up in the air.
