Chelsea, they ought to with no sense of shock lift the title. But where is the centre forward buy? That is where for me is where they need money spent?

Drogba no doubt one of the best in the land in his position, but he didn't score many goals last term and with age that knee is not getting better. Anelka? Well it is safe to say if one of these two came to life it would make a huge difference but the jury is out.

EPL Transfers of the Summer

Fulham—Zoltan Gera, who has gone for nothing delivers a fantastic ball which many teams lack.

Wigan—Amir Zaki, for next to nothing he has what it takes but time will tell.

Arsenal—Nasri, can see a pass and carries the ball excellently.

Surprise Team of 08/09

Man City and in no good way.

 

Interesting team for 08/09

Middlesborough young looking adventurous team with great pace.

 

Most Important Buy To Come

The choosing of Ferguson's assistant they have gone and lost the best Portuguese member of staff lol...

Quieroz has been tremendous for Man Utd and with the added date of Ferguson's departure hanging around once more, it will be an important decision.

But you know what forget that, there have always been people meant to be so vital behind the success and so vital to Ferguson from Kidd to McClaren to Quieroz, my man from Govan has missed them for at best maybe an hour... and you know what Quieroz is the idiot who inflicted the five man Man Utd midfield (much to Keane's dismay) which has only started to bare fruit in the last year and also he was a Madrid flop lol... so I say out you go Quieroz and best of luck... the language barrier in the dressing room will be made a little harder now he has gone at least.

Then I will change my mind again he has been vital on the training ground and the fluidity to Man Utd up front, he has had a huge part to play in making it work (you never knew what they were up to at times very rarely sticking to it throughout a game attacking four or five strong from deep positions which was a nightmare to defend against, it is a complex system)... No matter Alex will be cool and survive without his Portuguese sidekick.

So the EPL, will the second tier be able to grind out the must win games to get near the top four? No way Jimmy...

Hope springs eternal in the human breast and one simply cannot, in all good conscience predict unrelieved boredom for people for the next nine months... top four same as ever, bottom three consisting of the teams that came up last year.

So we have a new season ahead, it will hopefully be full of drama and great matches, let the games begin...
