I honestly don't think man ure will make the top four again. | |||
"I'm looking forward to the start of the football. Summer sports just dont do it for me. What's your predictions for the Top 4 this year? What do you think to your club's signings?? I think it will be a close call with Chelsea and Man City. But as a Chelsea fan, I hope we will nudge it with the signings we've made. If only we could get rid of Torres and bring in a proper striker, I'd be happy! 1. Chelsea 2. Man City 3. Arsenal 4. Man Utd Your top 4?" 1. Liverpool 2. Chelsea 3. Man Utd 4. Tottenham  | |||

Man united won't make top 4 trust me. | |||

"Top four in no particular order will be. Arsenal , Chelsea , Man City , Man Utd. I shall be watching it mostly from my sofa this year as prices are shocking. £75 for the opening home match at my club. Leyton Orient will probably my live football fix this season. " I can see it being a close season again. I enjoyed last year as there were no runaway leaders! | |||

Man U can't be as bad as they were last year but I can't see them winning it. Spurs and Everton will be the next two but Liverpool will be lucky to finish 7th. | |||

"Don't care about the premiership or what ever it's called these days... Real fans support teams in the lower leagues
"Madrid fans support championship football ? | |||

"man city Chelsea arsenal man utd Liverpool Everton spurs for my top 7 I think Burnley will surprise a few people this time don't think they will go down they will finish around 16th ive even put a £100 bet on them not going down you can guess im a Burnley fan "You might as well have given the £100 to me | |||

" Madrid fans support championship football ?" No but the Italians might
Leeds have signed their 5 Italian player  | |||

Southampton getting rid of quality. Villa being Villa Then theres the x3 that went up, I think QPR will finish highest out of the three | |||

"1-Chelsea 2-Man C 3-Man U 4 - Everton. Yes... You read that correctly, you heard it here first! Relegated Burnley, West Brom and between Villa/Southampton/QPR for the last spot. " Oh yeah, The Baggies. They havent boinged for a while now. Great season to be promoted, one hell of a fight down the bottom. | |||

"How Football Sounds To People That Don't Care. This Guy Nails It......... Firstly, imagine every time within a day that football is mentioned by someone else. Secondly, replace it with something that you don't want to hear about every day. Say... Archaeology. Then, think carefully about how an average day would pan out. So, you awaken to the clock radio. It's 7AM. Just as you awaken, it's time for the news and archaeology already. Not news and other historical investigations, like library restorations or museum openings (unless there's another event happening), but just the news and archaelogy. Malaysian plane is still missing. Pistorius is still on trial. New dig announced in Giza. Ancient Mayan temple discovered. Exciting stuff. Time for a bite to eat over the morning TV. More news. More archaeology. Yes, you are aware of what is up with the missing plane. Fine. Now the archaeology in video format. Video of people dusting off some skulls and bits of pottery. All well and good, but archaeology isn't your thing. It would be nice to hear about something else. Even when it isn't archaeology season, the media follow noted archaeologists. They drive fast cars, date beautiful women, advertise fragrances, and sometimes they go to nightclubs and act in the worst possible way. Scandals erupt as the tabloids follow these new celebrities when they're not searching the past for answers. It is entirely possible you can recite the names of certain researchers, even if you don't pay attention to archaeology. You don't know what transfer season is, but you know that someone was transferred to a dig in Peru for a sum of money that could fund the London Underground for two whole days. Out of the car at 8:55 and into work. What are the colleagues talking about, I wonder? Oh, Jones dropped a 3,890 year old pot and smashed it? What a useless wanker! Someone should do something unpleasant to him. And don't even ask about the unfortunate incident in Athens two years ago - you'll be there all day! Breaking a pillar like that! We don't talk about that here, mate. What? You don't want to discuss the finer points of the prevalence of phallic imagery in Pompeii? Is there something wrong with you? The drive home from work. Every thirty minutes, no matter the station, someone mentions the archaeology. Best sit in silence. Drive past a huge billboard with a black and white picture of a rakishly handsome archaeologist draped over an impossibly beautiful woman. He's winking at you. Trowel in his left hand, supermodel in the right. Jurassic, by Calvin Klein. And now the pub. A nice pub with a beer garden. Posters in the windows. LIVE EXCAVATION AT THE VALLEY OF THE KINGS! All of it on a huge TV with the volume up too loud. D*unken people yelling at the screen. "SEND IT FOR CARBON DATING, YOU USELESS ***K!" "WHAT ARE YOU ON, MATE? DUST THE ANCIENT MEDALLION GENTLY! SMELTING METHODS OF THE TIME PRODUCED VERY SOFT AND IMPURE METALS EASILY PRONE TO DISFIGURATION!" All this from two men out of a crowd of twenty. One lousy d*unken idiot and his chum ruin the image of other archaeology fans. Carbon dating report from the lab updates on TV, read by a man employed because they've been following the beautiful science since they were a boy. The d*unk chimes in again. "WHAT PHARAOH'S REIGN DID YOU SAY? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS SAYS ABOUT THE UNDERPINNINGS OF OUR THEORY OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT OF 4TH BC EGYPT? GET IN, MATE!" A cheer cascades through the building and you can only wonder why. Best go home and avoid anyone who might be drinking and singing. You once met a disagreeable chap who threatened to beat you up because you didn't watch the archaeology. "Not a late paleolithic era supporter are you? Think you're better than me? I'll have you, you scrawny tw*t!" To bed. To repeat the cycle tomorrow. The inescapable, inevitability that wherever you go, someone, somewhere, is just dying to talk to you about the archaeology. " Thats 5 minutes of my life I will never get back.  | |||

"Man city Chelsea Man U Arsenal Liverpool will need to sign a 30 goal a season striker as lambert looked lost in pre season and Sturridge only did that well last year as Suarez was amazing at drawing defenders away and allowing Sturridge the space he had to score " agree sturrige is quality but he ain't Suarez , lambert average. Goal scorers wins leagues hence why Arsenal will win the league. Sánchez is top draw. Liverpool thought it was a done deal but the power of London is huge. Liverpool need benizma | |||

If Rugby was that good it would be Football"I'd be surprised if they only run 7km. But as an argument that would suggest that the London marathon is better than soccer. (Arguably true.) Rugby is better than soccer but in my opinion thats BECAUSE you might get a thumb up your bum! | |||
| |||
| |||
"oh the joy over paid pre-madonnas running around kicking a ball falling over crying again while real men play a proper ball game rugby !!!!" I've never understood the real men play rugby argument. Since when do we judge manliness on what sport someone plays. Are you less of a man if you are not interested in any sports. Are hockey players not men at all ? Ive normally found the men who say the real men rugby argument are the same men who spout the "I can drink fifteen pints and drink my own piss" line. | |||
| |||
| |||
"ah the most over hyped league on the planet,not the best "Some truth in that. It's certainly not the best league as the best players can be found in other leagues but as for excitement I think it's up there. | |||
| |||
Reckon Arsenal are definitely in for a shout this year. Although saying that I'm an arsenal supporter and say it every year (wishful thinking) ha | |||
"ah the most over hyped league on the planet,not the best "It is over hyped but in my opinion game for game its more entertaining than any other league. | |||
"Optimism: Arsenal Man City Chelsea Man Utd Realism: Man City Chelsea Arsenal Man Utd " | |||
"ah the most over hyped league on the planet,not the best "Maybe. But look at the predictions. 4 or 5 teams considered as possible winners. Most leagues have a top 2 who win it year in year out. | |||

Ive normally found the men who say the real men rugby argument are the same men who spout the "I can drink fifteen pints and drink my own piss" line. " It's envy mostly. Football is more popular and enjoys more business sponsorship and revenue. Rugby fans harp on about manliness because they can't talk about anything else but the truth is (as it's been highlighted above) you can't judge manliness through a sport somebody plays.

"Good luck Palace. Pulis is a top man and Im gutted we didnt try getting him. anyone hear Strachan and Coleman after the Super Cup last night. We bigging up Real and Barca saying how good they both were naming their players. Then they said they didnt even win the league last year. Athletico did. Real or Barca would win our league." Real look like they could win everything this year. What a bunch of players they have! | |||

Its as if they are doing a Man City and just buying to stop you getting. I hope Angel di Maria comes to Man Utd, I dont think anyone else is in for him. The papers say this morning Man Utd ready to splash £80m. | |||
| |||
"If Utd were going to spend that sort of money, they'd have done it already. I'd expect two average centre halves, and maybe another wide player" Not really. If Real were going to spend what they did on Bale they would of done it at the start of the window this time last year. They didnt, that was late on aswell. Still 5/6 weeks left of the window isnt there? | |||
| |||
"That is a specialist case though. Spurs wouldn't sanction Bale until they sourced all their replacements. Di Maria is pretty much already surplus having seen a move to PSG fall through. Let's not pretend Utd are going to spend 80m on one player. LVG is a perfectionist and understands the importance of preparation. As I said, expect two centre halves and a wide player. Replacement for Hernandez maybe if he goes " Window shuts September 1st I believe so 3 weeks? | |||

I was unsure if it was Oct 1st or Sept 1st, I love deadline day. Harry Redknapp probably has money to spend. | |||
