    Just a bit of fun so we can look back at the end of the season and see whether the doom merchants were living in a glass half full world, or whether the optimists were living in the land of delusion.

    What do you think our final position will be.......


    1. Final Premier League Position?
    2. How far will we get in the League Cup?
    3. How far will we get in the FA Cup?
    4. Who will our top scorer be?
    5. Who will our best player be?
    6. Who will be the player that Rafa keeps picking that we just don't agree with?
    7. Will Rafa still be here on the final day of the season?

    Let's see who gets closest!

    If Mitrovic is the top scorer then we really are doomed.

    I think he will be fit all season and that Gayle won't be.

    Has a better goal rate than Lucas Perez. In fact given a proper run of games he would score plenty. Sadly he hasn't been used as the main man for a period of time.

    I think I read on here from someone that even in the Premier League he has a better goal rate than Andre Gray who has just gone for £18.5 million

    I can't wait till you are back from holiday. We've missed your ability to cut through the crap and spot insightful gems that nobody else can.

    Why did I expect the player you don't agree with to be Dummett

    Only the Dummett one. He is going to be the surprise of the season and end up at left back in the Premier League team of the season <diva>
