Where do the league winners go from here?

United, Madrid and Inter.

What's in store for them next season, will the aim be to win the European cup for all of them? each league looks set to be extremely competative next season with Roma, Milan, Inter, Juventus, Lazio all competing in Serie A, Madrid, Barca, Sevilla, Valencia and maybe even Zaragoza competing in La liga while The premiership could stage a four horse race if Liverpool and Arsenal really strengthen.

Which of the 3 winners is most likely to retain success next season?

Inter are most likely to retain the title IMO.

Barca are likely to bounce back strong next season are as Chelsea - I'm sure if you'd said at the start of the season that both Man Utd and Madrid would win the title you'd have been laughed at.

I think next season the winners of the three leagues will be Barca, Chelsea and Inter

I think (hope) United will retain their title. I like the way they play, and I like SAF.

I hope Valencia or Barcelona win in Spain. I can't see Real doing it again.

In Italy, I think we have a good shot, if we strengthen appropriately.

Next season in Italy looks to be great. Attendances are likely to increase with Genoa and Napoli also in the mix. These teams had packed houses in Serie B.

I think next season Fiorentina, Milan, and Inter will be the main contenders. Roma and Juve will also push.

It's just impossible to say before any signings have taken place. In the end, I think this will be the crucial factor. Besides Inter, every big team needs some key signings.

Madrid needs a complete clearout and a lot of new players to come through, hopefully a large part being from the youth system.

Manchester United definitely needed a lot of signings, and they are well under way already, so they will be very strong. A striker is desperately needed though.

Arsenal need a lot of signings as well as to sort out Henry's situation as soon as possible. I think Wenger is dreaming if he things he will compete without spending big next season.

Milan also need a clearout and several signings.

Barcelona need to sort out the dressing room and strengthen their squad, by getting rid of players like Mota and Gudjonsen, and getting some proper backups. Also, the defense needs strengthening.

Chelsea seems to have a great squad, and if Schevchenko and Ballack start performing next season they could definitely win the league again.



So in the end, I think at this stage only Inter and possibly Manchester United are somewhat ready for next season. Every other challenger in the big 3 needs to make key signings and get rid of dead weight. We'll see what happens in the next 3 months.

Chelsea are nailed on for the Prem - Liverpool can really compete from 2008/2009 onwards.

United have brought in 2 more young players

Inter will probably win - they need to because their last 2 titles have no credibilty.

I think Barca will win La Liga.

On paper United are in a very strong position - no key players leaving, some good signings. Chelsea by contrast have limited ability to make signings over the summer, and unless they can offload the likes of Sheva and Ballack for serious cash its harder to see how they'll make up the gap to United.

Barca will have more of a struggle. It's a mental thing I think, will their players react to being beaten this season by knuckling down and really going for it? If so, they should win. Real are still a team in transition really.

Italy is the toughest one because of the points deduction this year.

I think Milan will be Inter's main rival for the scudetto next season, even tho you cannot rule out Fiorentina, Roma, Lazio and Juventus. The season will start as a 6 horse race, if the teams strengthen as expected this summer. Its gonna be tough.

Chelsea should be favourites for the EPL, with ManU their only realistic competition...

And I see a 4 horse race in La Liga, with Real, Barca, Sevilla, & Valencia... if Capello remains, I think Real will retain it.

So I think Chelsea are most likely to win EPL, liek a 75% chance.... Inter have a decent chance in the scudetto (like 40%)... and Real (with Capello) have as much a chance of retaining their title as Inter.

We'll be back to retain our title

I think Chelsea, Inter and Barca start of as favourites for next season. But you have to wait to see which teams sign who.

I can definitely say that Lyon and Celtic will win their leagues.

Simple

Chelsea, Milan, Barca, Lyon, PSV and Bayern will all win their leagues....

No shocking surprises like Liverpool, Nuernberg, Palermo or Wigan... no!

The title of 2008 is already given to the teams above...

Wow.

Before the transfer window business has even picked up

I think it all depends on the striker signing for us. If we can pull off a big coup and sign an experienced quality striker then we have a good chance.

I think Milan will win Seria A and Barca will win La Liga.
