    It's not just Arsenal and Chelsea, we also have City and Spurs before xmas, so with the best will in the world I can't imagine us being top at xmas.

    Yup I'm going with arsenal, 2nd and 3rd are between Chelsea and City with united fighting Spurs for 4th. It really annoys me when pundits on MOTD refuse to answer questions like "can arsenal take the title?", just say yes or no for gods sake!

    It's such an easy question to answer as well, not like "will they". Just say "yes", of course it's possible.

    I predicted City before the start of the season though, and I'm sticking with that.

    I predicted Chelsea at the start of the season, but I'm changing that to Arsenal.

    This season could be the most interesting for a while. The top clubs are all in the mix...too early to write anyone off. Would be delighted to see Saints involved right through the season, though realistically it will be astonishing to see us in the top six come May.

    I could understand this last season, though even then we were playing well. But including us in a list of 3 teams worse than Sunderland!!

    Presumably Poyet has already told the Sunderland fans we play like Dagenham and Redbridge.

    If we could perform well and stay above Manu this season, that would be an achievement!

    This is how I see the season finishing.

    Arsenal
    Chelsea
    City
    Spurs
    Liverpool
    SAINTS
    Manu
    Everton

    Don't see why we can't finish above Liverpool. Swap them and Man U though.

    We won't finish above united, Liverpool or Everton. Stop getting carried away everyone, you're tempting fate.

    Watch us get hammered by Fulham now!

    People are reeeeeeeally overestimating how far Man U has fallen. Remember Arsenal last year? They were tenth in early December, averaging 1.4 points a game (Man U is at 1.375 right now). Then they remembered that they are good at football, and the wins started piling up.

    Exactly. 70% of people on the latest MOTD poll said United won't finish in the top 4. It's just reactionary and short-sighted; they'll probably still challenge for the title.

    Leaving City out of the top 7 is brave!

    At this point I'm gonna say:

    Arsenal
    Chelsea
    City
    United
    Tottenham
    Liverpool
    Saints
    Everton

    Hull, Palace and Sunderland to go down.

    That's pretty much what I'd go with, save for the bit where Manchester City was seemingly liquidated.
