blogpastor’s 2008/2009 English Premier League predictions
CHAMPIONS: CHELSEA, because of the “Phil-good” factor and balanced, experienced squad.
RUNNERS UP: ARSENAL, because they now have more experience and an even deeper hunger than last year.
THIRD PLACE: MANCHESTER UNITED, because their two key people, the Portuguese, are out: one, to coach Portugal; the other, a modern slave, injured in ankle and spirit.
FOURTH PLACE: LIVERPOOL, because they still don’t get it: not enough black players in their team. You can’t win the league without them. Maybe in the good old days, but not any more.
Last year, someone named Jas gave the correct prediction:
My predictions:
1.Man U(depth of squad and quality of players) 2.Chelsea(quality of players and their resilience -yea, all those late min strikes) 3.Arsenal(i still feel they need 1-2 highly experienced and quality players. Current squad have lots of speed and technical skills) 4.Liverpool(Benitez is still pretty much a master tactician in European games. New big signings unproven in EPL)
What’s yours? Have some fun and give us your predictions.
