The Premier League starts upcoming weekend, so here's the thread!

Will Liverpool repeat?
Who will relegate to the Championship?


I'm looking forward to it, to be honest!
I also made a fantasy premier league competition, which you can join if you want: https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/auto-join/kpifvn

Liverpool will not repeat, they haven't solidified their squad.

So many teams could be relegated but before seeing anyone play I'll say Fulham, West Brom and Brighton. Hopefully Leeds West ham and palace (of the possible teams).

I agree Liverpool should've brought in some new players, but there's still time to adjust.
There's enormous pressure at Chelsea to perform imo. Anything less than 3rd and a piece of silverware is a failed season.

Fulham, West Ham and Crystal Palace are my picks for relegation.

I dont see Arsenal making the top 4 but I hope I'm wrong.

Well they are clearly behind Liverpool and City.

So it comes down to whether they are a better team than three of Chelsea, Tottenham, ManU and Leicester. Most likely not.

I hope that you are right but keeping Aubameyang is an important step to doing that?

I think the top 3 places are between Liverpool, Man City or Chelsea and the rest of us are fighting for 4th. Man Utd are probably slight favourites for that position but Arsenal and Spurs are in with a shout. As for the rest of us I think it's Wolves who'll be the team threatening to shake up the big 6 this year. Leicester are too thin at the moment (especially with all the injuries) to be able to compete over the season especially when you consider we're in the Europa League for the first time ever too.

My hope is that we can qualify for Europe next season and have a great run in the Europa League.

Fulham's chances of winning 10 matches this year must be pretty low.

Easy win against Fulham who are probably going back down after this season. Willian was great today

Entertaining 45 minutes at Anfield!

Here's to hoping that the win (even if against Fulham) is the first of many this season for the Gunners on the way to a top 4 finish and a Champions League appearance. COYG!

Look out for Leeds!

Prediction: They will finish top half of the table.

You live in Portland? There a lot of Portlanders on realgm!

Man...did they bring in ANYTHING??? You'd like to think with the hardware we've been winning, and the wins / runners-up we've had over the last few seasons, that we'd be beating them off with a stick, but instead we get nothing. I'm knocking on wood here...but Liverpool have been pretty damn fortunate on the injury front as well the last couple seasons.

I just don't see the determination, and the crazy drive to gut it out and win, no matter what being able to sustain another season with us. There will be a relax. There's too many guys who need a break. We're too reliant on our "core" game in and game out. I personally think City run away with it. But we'll see. Maybe there's still time to sign a couple difference makers. I'm honestly a little shocked..and a bit annoyed the we did / got NOTHING out of this offseason.

Here's to Klopp proving me wrong....but I don't see Liverpool making the top 4, having done zilch (other than let guys go).

Spurs looked awful.

I doubt Mourinho makes it through the year. Not season....the year. I think his coaching credentials take a ding here he'll never be able to polish out. Long, long ago are the winning days. He hasn't done anything with a team in almost a decade now.

James looked great today

Whatever happened to Baphomet?

I contacted the mods a while ago. They are looking into it. I'll let you know when I hear.

Same here. I haven't heard back. I hope all is well.

Just noticed, it's been almost half a year since he last posted. Time flies.
Hope we will hear from him soon.
