[Albion] Fulham / Silva / Al Ahli / Potter

[Bakero]

Are you saying there's a chance for 8th?

My safe take: Arsenal top 4.

Where's the fun in that?

Perfect job for GP after the clusteruck he had at Chelsea imo

The Sanchez, Roberts, Bruno (Booooo) situations would then be interesting too

Bruno has known Pochettino since his playing days in Spain. I doubt he goes anywhere.

And this recent Saudi poaching of anyone in England is getting a bit tedious now.

Double-post-tastic.

I firmly believe one of last season's overachievers, us, Brentford or Fulham are in for a rough time.
Losing Saliva and Mitro while gaining GPott takes the pressure off us and the Bees

My other 'hot take' is Arsenal 7th.

Mine is both Chelsea and Spurs top 5.

Spurs subject to keeping The Diver.

Benefitting from a week’s rest/prep before most PL games.

Which is why we have to make the most of Euro this season.

Assuming those poxy clubs sort their shit out, we might see 8th as a good as a league position as it gets.

8th plus a long EL campaign would be a great Albion season.

We’re competing against clubs/states spending multi £100m’s in an attempt to have great cover every position.

This is absolutely true, but I honestly think the squad and coach we have will be disappointed with that.
So many good players and coaches across the division though, can see the table being tight from 3rd to 13th for most of the season.

Definitely. RDZ isn’t hanging around for mediocrity, Bloom too plans always for progression.

As a supporter I have more ‘modest’ aspirations. I’d take top half, QF’s of EL, a stack of PL and EL home wins and the double over Palarse .

Anything in excess of that a bonus.

I suppose I'd rather have Potter than many others, but reports from the US are that Silva seems very happy being with Fulham. Mitro is another issue though. Apparently he's pledged never to play for Fulham again as we want a lot more than the £25m offered for him.

if ever a player failed the “no dickheads” test……

Potter does seem very Fulham. He'd probably do well there.

Sadly I think Arsenal, Man City and United should be safe for top four. Newcastle will be interesting to see if they can keep their momentum going with the Champions League to contend with.

I also can't see Liverpool and Chelsea having poor seasons like thay just did, especially with no European football to think about. I think those two should make top 6 also.

I think the top 4 will be, in no particular order:

City
United
Arsenal
Liverpool

That will leave Brighton, Newcastle, Spurs, Chelsea and Villa for the other European spots.

Liverpool are in the EL. It’s Spurs who’ll have a week’s rest between PL fixtures.

Villa seem on yet another spend on ‘names’, they’ve really upped the ante for the cheating manager.

You're so last season with those predictions !

Twitter is suggesting Saliva will now staying so the Fulham fans can stop spitting on his memory.
