Time for a ballsy prediction

Southampton to be in a relegation dogfight, but just survive, narrowly, relegating Leicester.
 
Arsenal to not qualify for Europe next season - Wenger to leave "by mutual agreement".

Yeah, that's not going to happen. Well S'oton may find themselves in trouble at some point but Leicester will absolutely not. No way.

They've only lost Kante so far and have bought very clever once again - they even bought Daniel Amartey last Season in January and I am expecting a lot from him in their central/defensive midfield this Season if he's ready. They have a great squad, a clever setup, a solid foundation and a steady manager why should they suddenly fail so hard? I mean it's not like all the other teams last Season wasn't aware of how good they were they still couldn't stop them..

So, NO WAY! IT'S TOO BOLD!

I agree it's too bold, but I think the loss of Kante is going to hit them very, very hard. He was a force of nature last season, by far the most effective midfield destroyer in the league. Fantastic player.

Hope he fails miserably at Chelsea.
 
Barca and Real Madrid fail to get past CL Quarter finals.
City not to get top 4
Lukaku top goalscorer
Callum Wilson (Bournemouth) to move in the January transfer window for £30m+

That is one spectacular prediction, almost not aware about who he is but will keep an eye out now. One for us you think?

There's no way Vardy is having that season again.... ever.

CL will distract them.

I know nothing of their new signings - but law of averages says they'll probably be shit.

I expect them to lose a couple of other key players before the start of the season.

..... but.... I'm shit at predicting

Vardy doesn't have to though. They've signed one who's equally dangerous and fast in Musa.

I agree with Brendan on Kante, it was a rare sighting watching him last Season completely boss a midfield like few before him, and he is a big loss but I don't think it will hurt them for too long. The sum of their parts and all that, greater than any one individual in the team.

Should they lose say Mahrez and one or two more like Drinkwater I'd agree they'd look more vulnerable but not at this stage, not by any means. In my opinion.
 
Denmark to be invaded by Sweden & statues of the mighty Zlatan to be erected in every city.
That happens on a daily basis in Helsingor and there a lot of erect 'Zlatans' in the bedrooms over here at nighttime..

Damn you are playing a tight game, mate.
 
City not to get top 4

This was your call this time last year. Almost right too.

I reckon it's so hard to call this year but I can defo see it going tits up at both manc clubs.

Can see huge improvement at Chelsea and us, Spurs and Arse to join us in the top 4. It's not ballsy but whatevers, I reckon that's the top 4 with both mancs out of it.

Definitely has the potential. I made a similarly bold prediction about him at the start of last season and he started the season with 5 goals in his first 6 games. He picked up an injury in the 7th game which effectively ended his season (he played another few games for them, mostly as sub, but eventually they realised he needed an operation and that ended his season). I reckon he'll score 25+ this season and I also reckon he would have starred at the Euro's if he had been fit.
 
Leicester will get to the Champions League final and/or get knocked out by Bayern/Barca/Real/Atletico. Whichever comes first.

My best one was tipping United not to finish top 6 the previous season when they finished 7th. I don't reckon Stones is gonna solve City's problems at CB and if Kompany pulls up lame again and Aguero's injury issues also reappear then City could struggle. I think Arsenal look vulnerable too but I can't see both of them missing out on top 4.

I'd be worried about United's challenge for the title if they weren't hamstrung by playing Sunday/Monday most weeks because of the Europa league, I really hope they don't go out of that tournament too early,.

That's close to my thinking too. I would say top 3 without both manc clubs. I just can't predict who from the 3 big London clubs will falter this season. But both Spurs and Arsenal are far more settled and cohesive teams than the mancs and Chelsea will have a big advantage of no Europe and a manager who can bring out the best from that group of players.
