Time to embarrass ourselves - 17/18 predictions

Wenger gets manager of the year for finishing 3rd and no trophy?

I'm praying we go out of the league cup by the quarters. Those 2 legged semis in January have killed us the past 2 years.

 

LFC need another defender in IMO, that would make me feel better about top 4.

Spurs haven't done anything so I think they could slide. United will be better, but how much? I think those two clubs could be missing out from top 4. If not United, then Arsenal. Or LFC. Tight margins these days...

City, Chelsea, LFC, Arse, ManU, Spurs? I feel like I always underrate Spurs. And I might be underrating United too.

I don't ********ing know.

 

if I was going to predict - which I probably won't - I'd wait until the transfer window closes. a big move or two by one of the top teams can really change things.

 

here's the guardian's summary of our prospects

If we get a top class defender to add to Matip and Lovren I could see us challenging for the title and getting at least to the round of 16 in the CL.

 

Erring on th side of caution and that is fair enough. It's still early but the defensive failings of last term still haunt and Lovren as a starter (and Klavan) as back-up is reason enough to be cautious.

 

Things could change depending on transfers but as things stand, 5th would be a logical prediction

 

Can I answer after Xmas?

 

depends -- which Christmas do you mean?

 

I'll wait until after the window closes. I must admire el-capitano's guts, though; that's why we support football.
