This will be one of the closest 1st places in the history of the premier league in my opinion. United and Chelsea will be up there as usual, Arsenal will get a champions league spot at least and will challenge for most of the season, I think Liverpool could do quite well under Roy Hodgson. Man City will buy there way to challenging, and if Totenham can strengthen there squad this summer, they could do well and maybe even go better than last season.
IMO

I know, I was only joking. Chelsea will have in rough this year, that makes it more interesting to watch

i saw that, that will be a good deal for all parties, he needs to move on and revitalise his career, last season he was poor to say the least

I was hoping he'd redeem himself this season, although i haven't heard anything concrete on this yet.

In other news, J Cole -> Liverpool

[jvella7]

great signing for liverpool, benayoun and joe cole have swapped clubs and liverpool are 6 million better off, great business by hodgson has to be said, shame the gunners didnt snap up cole on a free

Good deal for Lpool? No way. Joe Cole will get 100k+ per week for sitting on the bench. Imo not a really good deal.

To something different: On Wednesday i'm going to watch pre-season friendly Sturm Graz vs Arsenal. Pretty excited to see some of the youngsters like Wilshere, Frimpong and Co and the new signings.

Yeah, i'm glad that Arsenal are coming to Austria every year, because as a student it's a little bit too expensive flying to London every season .
