    17:55 today, Man Utd could be 2007 Premiership Champions. But at the start of the season, after seeing......

    Chelsea, who won the league last year by 8 points, sign 7 players in the summer. 3 of them World Class players, Ashley Cole, Ballack and Shevchenko.

    ---------------- Hilario ----------------

    RB --- Boulahrouz --- CB --- A Cole

    RM ----- Mikel ----- Ballack ----- LM

    ------ Shevchenko --- Kalou -------


    Liverpool, who won the FA Cup last season and finished 3rd in league 1 point behind Man Utd, sign 6 players in the summer.

    ------------------ GK ------------------

    RB ---- Paletta ----- CB ---- Aurelio

    Pennant --- CM -- CM --- Gonzalez

    ----------- Kuyt ---- Bellamy --------


    Arsenal, who finished 4th in the league last season and got to the Champions League final, sign 5 players in the summer.

    ---------------- Poom ----------------

    RB ------ CB ------ Gallas ------ LB

    RM --- Denilson -- CM --- Rosicky

    --------- Baptista ---- ST ----------


    Man Utd, who finished 2nd in the league and won the league cup last season, sign 2 players in the summer. Kuszczak and Carrick, fail to sign Owen Hargreaves/Senna and replace Ruud van Nistelrooy Man Utd's best striker.

    The Mancs ARE third place finishers without all them injuries to Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea. I predicted #1 Liverpool, then Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal. However, the Mancs were saved by them injuries to the other teams.

    That's why they wimped out of the CL just like that at the feet of Serie A 4th place (should be really 3rd without points penalty) Milan. <Ale>

    lol!

    What injuries have Liverpool had exactly? Not that many. Garcia and Kewell have never been that good in the Prem away from home for Liverpool anyway (which is where they have messed up).

    My top 4 at the start of the season was:

    1. Chelsea
    2. Liverpool
    3. Man Utd
    4. Arsenal

    I think I listened too much to some of the Liverpool hype on here and thought they were better than they actually are

    Liverpool are playing in the Ultimate Final (for clubs) against a fine team by the name of Milan. Not bad at all by the Scousers. Biggrin <Ale>

    On paper, yes.

    But you can kind of fluke getting to the CL final. Winning the league though you generally have to be consistently good.

    You haven't won the CL yet anyway

    1 chelsea 2 pool 3 utd 4 arsenal was my prediction

    i did not anticipate the likes of vidic, evra improving as much as they did, and i thought they'd lack goals. hell, i also thought ronaldo was going to go after the world cup. wrong on many counts, i was.
