Premier League Winner 2020/21
|
|
Was discussing this yesterday with my old man. To be fair neither of us really give a shit, but it was in a conversation about betting. For the first time in many a year, neither of us could genuinely say for sure who we'd back...the odds are very interesting too, teams who would never have been considered are quite low odds: Everton at 20/1, Leeds 66/1 etc
Who would you back?

Normally six games in the table is starting to take shape. Whilst the bottom five could quite believably finish where they are, can anyone believe that only Liverpool of the 'big six' will finish in the top seven?
Very tough to pick a winner right now. If Liverpool don't miss Van Dijk badly I'd back them, but otherwise nobody stands out. Although as much as I hate to say it though, Tottenham could be candidates this year, until they inevitably capitulate in April when they look like contenders.

Funnily enough, we said that too - can you imagine winning the league for the first time in our history but having to watch from your living room due to a lockdown? Sounds very West Ham...

There is 0% chance of Everton winning the league.

Still think it will be Liverpool in front of Man City
Spurs will choke , Chelsea & Man Utd will suffer from incompetent managers & Arsenal will be up and down
Take the cash out on Everton

To think if we had been given the blatant penalties against Arsenal and City we would be equal top. Aunty balls etc

As long as there are no crowds I can see any one of ten teams winning it, us included.
There will certainly be one or two surprises in the top six..

I think Liverpool will win it again. Maybe Pep is now outstaying his welcome at Citeh?
In this season, the top 6 may well be open though.

If i had to chose right now then, Liverpool, but do think the top 4 will finish with at least 1 non "big 6" Club in it, usually by now the big clubs are forming a pack at the top, currently only Liverpool are in the top 8, Chelsea next best in 9th.......
This season is a bit wide open IMO, maybe only 5 or 6 games in but cant say any of the big teams is looking rock solid to make the top 4 let alone win the PL, all have fucked up as well.

No matter how funny results are at the moment it is going to end up being Liverpool or City.
Once they get in their flow there are no teams that can live with them.
Those two in 1st or 2nd with Chelsea and Spuds 3rd or 4th.
Chasing pack will be usual suspects of Gooners, Man Utd, Everton and Leicester. It would lovely for us if we could be in the chasing pack.

Although only 5/6 games in, it does seem very tight at the top. 3 points between 1st and 9th place. Think it will be a lower points total to win the title, than in a lot of other years, which will hopefully bring more teams into [play.
January transfer window being earlier in the season, in term of games played, due to the later start, will make it more important than usual.
Unfortunately Liverpool again, I think.
As somebody said on this ,or another thread, even worse start than usual by the bottom 3 teams.

Amazingly, we're not on the list.

No chance we will win it.
I still think Liverpool will successfully defend their title, but Manchester City and Tottenham will push them close. Leicester might be a surprise package again.
As stated, Chelsea and Manchester United have average managers who are slightly out of their depth, so I don't see them or Arsenal challenging.
Everton might make top four but I can't see them winning it.

Challenging times for the bookies and long may it continue. I would expect results to settle down a bit but still with an element of unpredictability. Way too early to see who the frontrunners are going to be, but there are going to be a few surprises, that's for sure.

Man City arevthe only team i can see going on an unstoppable run, so I'd go with them. Think they will get it together eventually.

Most open season ever. I see Man City winning and then a plethora of clubs vying for places 2-12. I never thought I'd say it but we may even be up there if we carry on believing in ourselves and playing as we have been.
