    I reckon Chelsea will start to run riot soon. Oscar, mata and hazard is in my opinion the best attacking midfield in the world, they'll probably land falcao who's immense then they just need a class holding midfield pair and I reckon on paper they'll probably be the best team in the world.

    Without mentioning jose's apparent imminent return.

    Mata and Hazard certainly, but I don't think Oscar is nearly as good as the other two.

    I thought Man City were leading the chase for Falcao now? I think he'll be massive for whoever gets him, unless it's Monaco, which would just be a farce.

    Why do people think Liverpool will be up with the top 4? They'll finish 6th. The top 4 are way beyond their reach now. They're ****e, without Suarez for 7 games, have an aging Gerrard who's suffered with niggling injuries over the past couple of seasons and their midfield and defence are both ****e. In favt, without Reina, Gerrard, Agger, Suarez and Sturridge they're a very average team indeed.

    I'd say that Coutinho looks one hell of a player and all, is he on loan?

    I think Liverpool are ones to watch next year, think they have got a good manager there getting the best out of the likes of Henderson with quite a few good young players in the squad. Not sure if Henderson is staying there but if they can get the best out of players with shot confidence like that then they will do well.

    If you took the best 5 players (you forgot Coutinho) most teams would be average <doh>

    I noticed yesterday that we are going to have the joint sixth longest serving manager in the Prem on kick-off day and that is only if Pulis is still at Stoke. The managerial upheaval in the top flight is crazy and could lead to some surprises. However, I expect the top 5 to be the same as this year, just not sure on the order yet.

    Moyes will struggle to compete with Chelski, but he will get Man Utd to at least 2nd, Man City ****ed up by sacking Mancini, they had a chance with a consistent manager, despite the players at Chelski, it's a case of new manager, new system, but if Mourinho goes back then it'll be a good fit. I do see Fellaini following Moyes to Utd & that could be the defensive key to the, being a challenger to Chelski.

    They havr no depth. Look at Man U. Take out Van Persie, Rooney, Evra, Vidic and Carrick they have Hernandez (better than Borini), Nani (better than Carrol), Butner (better than any liverpool equivalent), Jomes (better than Skrtel) and Kagawa ( 999999999999 times better than Henderson or Dowining). The difference in quality is frightening. Take out those players for man u they'd still probably finish in the top 4. Liverpool without the 5 I mentioned would end up 12-14th.

    Opinions are everything, but hang your head in shame lad. oscar has just moved to a different culture and in the latter part of the season he has shown himself to be a cracking player.

    Next season Oscar will be in my fantasy team (with Mata granted)

    Take away this seasons top 7 and the rest are very much alike. imo. Not as tough as the PL we left in 2010.

    With the right additions to our main players and Steve Brucies PL nouse and experience then i can see us finishing around 12th/15th place next season. Unlike Brown, SB wont mess us the matches that we should be winning. Whatever points we take off this seasons top 7 clubs should classed as a Brucie Bonus imo.

    Indeed, its gonna be fun.

    I expect Liverpool to do well next season, Brendan Rodgers is a good manager and he's starting to make things happen there, he'll also get a chance to improve the squad. They've only lost one of their last twelve games(only Arsenal have matched that) and they're currently fourth in the form table. I don't think a top four finish is a ridiculous suggestion, unlikely, but not ridiculous.
