Here are my predictions of how I think the Premier League will finish at the end of the 2008/2009 season. Manchester United will continue to excel, while I believe Spurs have the talent and determination to break into the top four knocking Liverpool into fifth place.
Liverpool has done well to capture Robbie Keane, but the team still lacks depth in key positions especially if injuries or suspensions affect some of their players.
At the other end of the table, I don’t see the newcomers from the Championship making much of an impact in the Premier League, while clubs such as Fulham, Newcastle and Bolton will suffer another agonizing and depressing season near the lower depths of the league.
Here are my predictions:
1. Manchester United
2. Chelsea
3. Arsenal
4. Tottenham Hotspur
5. Liverpool
6. Aston Villa
7. Portsmouth
8. Blackburn Rovers
9. Everton
10. Manchester City
11. Sunderland
12. West Ham United
13. Wigan Athletic
14. Middlesbrough
15. Newcastle United
16. Fulham
17. Bolton Wanderers
———————————————-
18. West Bromwich Albion
19. Hull City
20. Stoke City

haha Robbie Keane would love that result, wouldn’t he?
seriously though, bold choice with Spurs there. As much as I want to believe it, just too many changes which will take time to gel, and too much question about the fitness of the back line. Still, Spurs IMO have just as much quality as the top 4, and should be no worse than 5th.
Here’s how I see it:
1 Manchester United
2 Chelsea
3 Liverpool
4 Arsenal
5 Tottenham Hotspur
6 Portsmouth
7 Everton
8 Sunderland
9 Aston Villa
10 West Ham United
11 Middlesbrough
12 Wigan Athletic
13 Newcastle United
14 Fulham
15 Blackburn Rovers
16 Manchester City
17 West Bromwich Albion
18 Hull City
19 Bolton Wanderers
20 Stoke City
Man City are in DEEP trouble from what I hear, I see a lot of the club bailing, including Hughes.

i agree with most…but top 5.
1 chelsea
2 liverpool

4 tottenham

spurs has quality but not the experience in key positions. their defense is still one of the worst. i would still give them a couple of years until they start to really attack the top four…if they keep the talent and coaches which they have brought in.

Arsenal lost Hleb and Flamini and their best replacement was Nasri. I think their season is contingent on the Young Guns emerging (Walcott, Bendtner, and Ramsey).
Tottenham look great on paper, I still think their defense is a little suspect though. I think they finish 5th but in a year the top 4 will be broken.
loading...
Is this a repost from last year?
loading...
Newcastle 15th? Are you kidding me?
loading...
Villa are the only team that will crack the top 4 this season! We’ve bought a whole new defence so all those goals we let in last season will be plugged. Doesn’t everybody remember that Villa scored the 2nd most amount of goals in EPL last season behind Man Utd?

If Tottenham manage to gel and crack the top four, here’s hoping it’s those decrepit old fogies at Chelsea that find themsleves staring up at their bums from the fifth spot.
loading...
Tottenham will be better, but to go from 11th to 4th
is much too steep of a climb. With Berbatov on the verge of a move to Man U, who will score the goals?
The top 4 will be a repeat from last season. Who cares where everyone else finishes?
loading...
Wow. Everyone predicting Chelsea to win it. Me too, actually. Spurs, as someone already pointed out, still have a bad defense. Will finish 5th-7th. I can see L’pool edgeing Arsenal for third, and Villa is probably the only team that can challenge the big four at the moment.
West Brom will stay up, Blackburn will have a difficult year, Man City are in peril due to recent developments with their scumbag of an owner. It’s easy to say that both Hull and Stoke are going down.
Should be another fantastic season, a lot to look forward to. I would have loved to see how 2/3 of the top Russian players fare in the Premier League, but nothing so far.

Somehow, i think Fulham will move a bit up with AJ in their squad. I also think Stoke will avoid relegation and the top 4 will remain with Arsenal beating Spurs just a few points away.
Newcastle might not be so low, maybe in the mid-table.
The top 4 challenger will be Portsmouth, SPurs and Villa.
And for sure, Blackburn might be in the relegation zone. West Brom’s loss for Kevin Phillips is too big. Hull is even worse

United return the same squad that doubled last year – and look likely to cover their only real weakness with another big-name striker. Those of you who predict a 3rd place finish are insane – this United team is the most talented and deepest in the league. Chelsea is the only team in the league that can even come close.
Chelsea had a run of very harsh injuries last year – and could challenge again this year if they stay healthy. But they won’t – there is a reason for all of the injuries. Most of their key players are over 30, and Lamps / Drogba don’t seem to have the same fire as they did 2-3 seasons ago. I think injuries to Drogba, Terry, Lampard and/or Deco will take the wind out of their sails this year as well.
Keane (and possibly Barry) make Liverpool a much scarier side. If Benitez is smart enough to keep his best 11 on the pitch this year, they very well may pip Chelsea for the #2 spot. Babel comes into his own this year, giving the scousers three legit scoring threats. They will, however, miss Crouch’s timely, awkward goals in the last 20 minutes of two or three games.
Tottenham have an amazing array of attacking talent at their disposal – but the loss of Keane and possibly Berba will truly hurt them. Horrible defensive side, but they can light just about anybody up for 4 goals on any given night. I’m giving them the edge over Arsenal on the assumption that they won’t sell Berba without a “like for like” replacement waiting in the wings.
I think that you’ll see Arsenal off to a fast start again this year, as they have a fairly easy schedule over the first two months – again, it will evaporate quickly. This side don’t lack experience in my mind, they lack toughness. As much as I love to watch them attack, the incessant whining, diving and crying turn my stomach. Fabregas and Nasri will be formidable, and Van Persie can be a stud if he can stay healthy. I don’t see Adebayor coming anywhere near his total from last year though.

Just can’t see Tottenham make that much of a run espeically if their other top strike goes off to Man U as speculated. Expect Villa to be the main team fighting into the Top4, replacing either Liverpool or Arsenal who both have failed to improve their teams all that much.

lmao, why does everyone think blackburn will not do very well?
ok i undertsnad maybe not top 7/8 but definately still in the top 10!
get a grip tottenham will never break into top 4 and neither will villa or portsmouth if anyone does its still everton for me.
loading...
Jay – speaking for myself, I put them at 11 because I think that the loss of Bentley is really going to hurt Blackburn. I also keep reading rumors about Santa Cruz. I doubt that they’d be dumb enough to offload him, but they’d be ruined if they did…
Everton are another class team on the fringes, but I don’t see any improvement over last year’s lineup – therefore I can’t figure out why they’d move up th list. Arteta and Cahill are a top-caliber midfield duo when they’re healthy, but one or the other is usually hurt. They also need a better striker than Yak. That said, they’re one of the most technically solid teams in the league, and I loove to watch them play – I just don’t think that they are going to improve over last year.
Tottenham and Villa made significant moves to improve their teams, while Arsenal took a big step backwards IMO – but it’s all conjecture till they hit the pitch tomorrow…

(they r looking very storng pre-season and have the grit to grind out 1-0 or 2-1 victories. carlo ancelotti looks like he has polished off a very good team, and hes managed it without bringing any real big signing into the mix, bringing in zhirkov has only strengthend the team but the biggest change has been in the newly re-vitalized chemistry between the exiting players )
2. arsenal
(they may be a young team but they r begining to gain experience and the departure of toure and ade’s wont efect them much coz eduardo is looking sharp, the new defender is highly regarded and wilshere is looking very promising for them this year)
3. man u
(i dont think they will win a 4th prem in a row and loosing ronaldo will reriously effect the goal tally, but its undeniable that they will push for it again with the team and managment that they have)
4. liverpool
(i love liverpool, i think torres and gerrard are the 2 best players in the prem now that rons gone, but i don’t think they can keep up with the other three, they did well last season by finishing above chelsea and arsenal but they have both improved a lot in the last few months and i dont see an improvment in the liverpool team so far)
5. tottenham
(they have made some very cleaver signings over the summer, i dont rate chouch that highly but paired with defoe, they r sure to give deffences a chalange and there deffence is looking stronger than ever if king can sort out his injury problems)
6. everton
(everton is a strong team, they dont have many big names but work well together and i think thats all down to david moyes, hes a great manager and i think he will keep everton in one of the uafa cup spots)
7. man city
(i am doutfull that the mega money spending will pull off this season, in years to come they will gel and become more of a threat just as chelsea did well they became wealthy, but they realy have no choice but to get into a eurapian spot dew to the pressure that surrounds them)
8. aston villa
(i like villa and the manager, and i dont like the thought that they may not get into a eurapian spot but the signing of downing is not enough to compensate the depature of barry and other teams around them have got stronger, they missed there chance to get into the top 4 last year, and im sure they are not going to get another chance for a few years to come)
9. west ham
(zola,s had his first bite of being a prem manager and he did well last year, hes got a good group of players and they will do well again this year)
10.sunderland
( sunderland have a bit of money now and with campbell and jones upfont, they could pull off a few supprises)
11. blackburn
(i think blackburn is an allround good team, there are no real stand out names now that santa cruz has gone but each player has good qualaties)
12. stoke
( i think they will be a real supprise package this season, with beattie, fuller and delaps throw ins, they wont be short on goals)
13. bolton
(i dont think they will suffer like they did last season, but they wont get into the top half of the table)
14. fulham
(fulham did amazingly well last year under hodgson, but i think its only because of the deffence, they had the 4th best deffencive record last year behind the top 3 teams, but if hangeland gose to arsenal and hughes gets injurd at any point through the season, then they realy have no one to back them up, i think a fulham drop will be the suprise of the season)
15. wolves
( wolves will do well this year, i think they will score quite a few goals with ebanks-blake and doyle upfront, but will struggle at the back)
16. wigan
(i think they will fall a little but i wouldn’t be to worried about relegating this year coz i can realy see my next 4 teams being the teams fighting for safety)
17. portmouth
(pompy r realy going to struggle this year but i hope (more than i think) that they will stay up, if they do, it will prob be because of david james, hes a great keeper and with him in ur side, uv always got a chance)
18. birmingham
(i dont think they are a good enough team to stay in the prem)
19. burnly
( i would love to see them do well this year but i thin they will struggle like derby did a few years ago when they only got 11 points all season, i dont think they will do quite so badly but not by much)
20. hull
( i dont realy like the manager phil brown or hull on the hole, when things were geting tuff about halfway through the season they started to act like children that couldn’t get there own way, and i dont think they were good enough to stay in the prem last year but they managed it because of the points there gaind early in the season, and i dont think they r good enough to stay in the prem this year)
the top 4 was very hard to choose but i realy think chelsea will win it, man u will deffinatly be in the top 3, i think arsenal will pick up consistancy because i can see a real comparison to the invincables from 2004, and i think liverppol wont be realy tested but 5th and 6th but wont do as well as the other three big teams.
arsenal will win the F.A. cup this year beacuse they need to win somthing
i think ether arsenal or man u will win the carling cup (arsenal because there kids will want to show off and man u because i cant see them wining nothing this year)
and real madrid or inter milan will win the chamions league.

The games started out extremely strong this season with some bizarre surprises. Its early days, so let’s see where they’ll all stand at the end of Game week 5. Arsenal is always the best, regardless if they win trophies or not. This shows that its not about buying ready-made players. All you player haters, watch out for the GUNNERS!
