It's Your Round Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 My predictions, although I’m not really confident Villa will finish 6th. More hopeful than anything. 1. Man City 2. Chelsea 3. Manure 4. Liverpool 5. Leicester 6. Aston Villa 7. Arsenal 8. Tottenham 9. Everton 10. Leeds 11. Wolves 12. West Ham 13. Southampton 14. Brighton 15. Crystal Palace 16. Brentford 17. Burnley 18. Newcastle 19.

I'm not surprised, in that fans always overrate how likely their team is to do well, but I agree we're very very unlikely to finish top 6. More likely to be in another relegation battle, though I hope we can get another good start and steer clear of it again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentford will probably get off to a good start but then fall away as the months go on, probably similar to Norwich tow years back. Will be a fun team to watch though. Hard to call which other teams will seriously be down there. Have a feeling it might be a year too far for Burnley and Palace obvious contender, interested to see who Vieira signs. Not convinced by who Wolves have appointed either. Only ended last season with 45 points and talk of selling key players although getting Raul Jimenez back is important so slow start for them and that could be amusing side story for us to follow. Who have Southampton signed so far this summer? Cos they barely won a match for about 6 months, could see them being in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Man U actually have a fantastic squad if they can get their shit together. I think Arsenal will actually be a lot better this season that last - not so sure about Spuds. Leicester are recruiting well, and only have a small gap to bridge to the top 4, which much be their target again. No doubts that City, Chelsea and Liverpool will spend big and, for me, that's your top 6. City Chelsea Man U Liverpool Leicester Arsenal We will be duking it out with Spuds, West Ham and maybe Leeds again. Depending on how the window goes, we should be able to finish top out of those clubs. Arsenal is not out of reach, but they finished strongly and are trying to add quality. Whilst I think we can beat anyone on any given day, we've been very predictable in how we line-up when all the players are available for selection. I'm hoping that with Buendia and Jack on the pitch together, opposing teams won't be able to mark two players out of the game. If they try, this is where we really need our midfield to step-up and capitalise on the extra space that will afford them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 So who do we think could be a surprise relegation candidate this year? Southampton have now lost Bertrand, Ings and potentially Vestergaard. The replacements are relatively unproven but could be good investments. They also had a terrible run of form towards the end of last season. They also seem to get into a habit of picking up injuries due to their playing style without much depth. Their academy also doesn't seem as strong as it used to be. You have Wolves who I'd class as making a risky appointment. They have obvious issues in their squad such as the centre of midfield and defence. To me it'll depend on Jiminez and how quickly Neto gets back to fitness. Palace have made a very risky appointment but even if that doesn't work out I could see someone come in to steady the ship. I think they've recruited well and should be ok. I'd also be worried as a Burnley fan as ever, with little investment again is there a limit to the lengths Dyche can go to keep them up? I expect the likes of Brighton to get stronger and be well clear this year although they still need a striker. Bruce will find a way as usual. Leeds won't have second season syndrome either for me. Should be a fun season down the bottom, I expect at least one of the promoted sides to stay up. Most likely Brentford or Norwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
