I don´t think Man U will be in the top 4 this season for some reason.
Here´s my brave prediction.Chelsea
Man city
Liverpool
Arsenal
Manu
You also forgot Spurs, they came 4th last season and they still have class players like King, Dawson, Defoe etc.

Pre Season one off game won´t make difference in the league where quality in depth counts. Spurs did well last season, but I don´t think they will this season, although I noticed Robbie keane is back, he could make a big difference.
if you consider a 1:1 a wooping🙂
Damn Ive lost interest in England, didn´t even bother watching the game. The world cup put my football interest on a downer.
This is skill🙂

I think other countries will be finding a key strategy to Spains minimalistic "hold ball and score a goal" tactic before the next major tournament, and they will go back to being normal.
Of course such a strategy could totally backfire when not executed right, but with the right players you could give Spain a whooping.
Originally posted by BicnarokI hope not. I find the Spanish vein of football to be dull. Too much holding the ball, dominating the possession. I like it when a game is end to end.

I agree, even though England got beaten 4:1 by Germany it was an end to end game, if England had scored in a couple of chances they had (including the "ghost goal"😉 it may have been even more exciting.

I really don't get why everyone wanks over clubs Barcelona and Arsenal, granted they have some of the more talented players on the market but their brand of football isn't beautiful... It's mundane... And there is nothing more satisfying (all be it boring) then a really well drilled defence simply not letting them through. (See Inter Milan vs Barcelona in the recent Champions League.)

I agree, if they were to add a bit of tempo to their game and try and score more often it would make it more attractive. Everyone talks about "technical ability" ok, they can pass and hold the ball. But everyone likes to see a Ronaldo (the real one) sort of player rip defenses apart with pacey attacks. He had REAL skill, skill with pace is way more difficult than skill in passing the about like in box work in training.
