    MANCHESTER UNITED all of the way! I think they have enough to do it....Carlos Tevez will tear it up paired up with Rooney....dang!

    Should I say the TREBBLE! (if that is how you spell it)

    C'mon now. :D

    Van Persie/Bendtner

    Hleb/Rosicky

    DaSilva/Walcott Cesc Gilberto/Diaby Eboue

    Clichy Gallas Toure Sagna

    Lehman

    That's going to be a pretty lineup to watch. We'll be a lot better without Henry. Wait and see. Remember we had the best record among games within the top 4, we just couldn't put down the lower teams like you and Chelsea did. I thought we played fairly poorly last year and we still we tied on points with Liverpool for third.

    Only 21 points back. :D

    And we've greatly improved.

    We beat you TWICE in the league (out of two games) IIRC, so we ain't chicken stuffing.

    Damn the last 5 minutes of a match. Good thing the Premiership is about 38 matches and not 2.

    Or 6, like I said - we had the best record among the top four teams but couldn't beat the other teams as consistently as you and Chelsea did. However, overall we played poorly and still finished tied for 3rd on points. Every reason to believe this years team will perform better than last years team. And it isn't you we have to do better against, but the lower teams.

    i meant robbie - it just says "keane" on the back so I suppose it could also be former New Jersey governor Thomas Keane.

    I thought the English Premier League doesn't matter anymore now that Beckham is in the states. Hello? It's about Beckham now... :rolleyes:

    Anyways, I'm going for that team that was in that one movie with Mr. Frodo, Greenstreet. I forgot what team that was.

    Dude, Bechkam has not been in the EPL for 4 years now. He joined Real Madrid in 2003.

    Ronaldo had a phenomenal season last year but I see Rooney being up there as a leader in goals scored, especially now that he is paired with Tezez.

    I am so glad they got rid of my two least favorite players: Alan Smith and Keiron Richardson.

    ANd I am really feeling their new jerseys...last season's were ugly to me:

    West Ham United is the team that Mr. Frodo did his brawling for...

    They actually picked up some nice players this year. Ljundberg from Arsenal for one.

    Man U is looking good. They will be judged by their performance in the Champs League because domestically anything less than a title is a let down.

    Torres is going to be huge for Liverpool. For marketing more than anything.

    If Tottenham would only win 2 matches this season, it will be against Arsenal in the Derby Matches. :D

    Tottenham Hotspur = Rockets
    Arsenal = Dallas Mavericks

    I think Torres will be a good signing for Liverpool, i think he and Kuyt will be a deadly duo.

    My gues (and fear):
    1 Chelsea
    2 ManU
    3 Liverpool
    4 Arsenal

    Unless something unbelievable happens, it will be a two horse race between ManU and Chelsea.
