2. top 4 goal scorer

3. top 4 'Red' card

4. top 4 'Yellow' card

I dare not start [laugh]

According to a recent online poll in a popular brit media, Man U was voted to be the likely epl winner this coming season. Followed by Chelsea, Man C and Liverpool in that order by 'votes'.

 

As we all know, forecasts are proven wrong most of the time. Vote popularity does not necessaily equate to pitch success for sure.

 

Since we are usually wrong to start with, I can say that I would like to follow this particular poll result except that the order be re-arranged.

 

Imho, Liverpool will be the epl champion followed by Man U, Chelsea and Man C for this coming season.

 

To reinterate my cavert, my optimistic forecast is usually wrong, so please don't get too upset with me if you disagree. You are free to state your own forecast in this thread and lets see what is the final verdict come end of the season in May 2017.   :D

I'll join in the fun by predicting the top 4 but not in any order cos that one is tough and too early with the transfer window still open:

 

Man United, Man City, Chelsea and Arsenal.

 

Think the title would be fought between the 2 Manchester Clubs and Chelsea.

The two Manchester teams are supposed to have a friendly match in China tonight. But now cancelled due to heavy rain...

 

Pity, as it would be good to see how the 2 star coaches fare, not to mention the new players...

Maybe they pray for rain and blessing in disguised. Keeping football fans on their toes, who's better team & manager .... :XD:

 

They want to pitch themselves in BPL ... :secret-laugh:

Such trips are only to make $$ and enhance the profile and popularity of the teams. The sponsors would have paid huge $$ to fly them to China, and sure must have hoped to recoup some RMB from paying fans when the 'famous' teams play.

 

Wonder now where the RMB is coming from...

I believe there should be insurance coverage for these kind of unforeseen circumstances which results in match being cancelled and tickets being refunded.

The only insurance is assurance of one XMM nightly for each players of both teams until they left China ... :XD:
