[Football] 2007-2008 Barclays' English Premier Leaue

Tottenham, baby! GO SPURS GO!!!!

I have always wanted to attend a Premier League game. One day, I will travel to England and do it.

 

I'm going with ManU as well. I think what they added is going to be huge. A treble is a major possiblity this season. I do think Chelsea will be close as they gel better than they did last season. I think Arsenal is going to miss Henry more than they know.

1. ManU
2. Chelsea





3.Liverpool
4.Man City

 

ban for life

 

Liverpool should be at the top with the addition of Fernando Torres. I just hope that Tom Hicks is a better soccer owner than baseball. GO REDS!

 

Yeah those 8 goals he scored away for the penalty spot last season should really help you make up those 21 points.

 

He has never played with guys like Gerrard and Alonso. This team is going to be fun to watch.

 

Man U baby !!!!

I try to get to a game or two a year.......Old Trafford !

DD

 

Park!! Is he still injured? =/

 

Your style of play is completely against what Torres needs. He's not going to be happy playing up top alone with long balls being played into him. When was the last time a striker succeeded with Liverpool? Morientes was great before he joined, terrible while he was there, and scored more goals from open play last season in far fewer games than Torres.

Yes, he's done for the vast majority, if not all, of the season.

Haven't I heard this the last five years or so?

 

Morientes was miscasted at Liverpool, and was terrible as a result. Torres actually has the skillset to play the deep-lying striker role, and he is a fantastic addition.

Last five years? How about the Champions League and FA Cup success? While this team has been disappointing within the Premier League, you have to respect their success outside of it.

 

I was referring to the Premiership, which is the real test of quality in my opinion, because you have to be at your best over a 10 month period. And for a while now, you've been disappointing in the league,which can account for your success in the cups. You've been dead in the league by January, leaving you the ability to concentrate all your efforts on the Champions' League and FA Cup. While teams like Chelsea and Man United have been fighting on all three fronts.

 

I ordered a Roy Keane Spurs #10 07/08 jersey the other day and it cost my ass like $110 US. Damned weak dollar.


PS MLS and USA Soccer suck ass.

 

Why would you order a Roy Keane Spurs jersey?

 

Scratch that. He should be banned for life for ordering a Spurs jersey of any sort.

 

You make a legit point. I agree with you that the Premiership is the ultimate evaluation of how good is a team, but getting winning those other cups were no cakewalks. With the addition of Torres, I have every confidence that they will at least be neck-and-neck with Chelsea and Man U.

 

1. Arsenal
2. ManU
3. Chelsea
4. Liverpool

Top Scorer Robin Van Persie.

Biggest shock: Arsenal win the title.

Mourhino gets the axe as Chelsea can't keep pace with ManU and a surprising Arsenal as they get out of the gate well.

Best newcomer. Brazilian Croat Eddie Da Silva scores 14 goals.

Most predicatable result: Spuds don't finish in the top 4.

 

I know. I was just referring to that fact that for years I've been hearing at the start of every season that this is the year Liverpool actually compete for the title, yet they never do.

Ah, pure Gooner propaganda. Every bit of it.
