Totally Unofficial 2017/18 Premier League Thread (NWT)

This is really good put together through City's media team.

Any mention of knocking up Maradona's daughter? Because that's his biggest accomplishment. Anybody can win the PL if they are funded by a Sheikh's billions.

Yep. There's a good 5-6 minutes about the result of knocking up Maradona's daughter.

To be clear though, years ago the line told by some here was that money won't get you a PL title, but that only certain teams beyond City's paltry history had the pedigree to win trophies. Guess you weren't in that dumb cabal.

 

[DeacMan]

Pep signs a two year extension at City through 2021.



Suspect Jorginho won't be too far behind.

 

[DeacMan]

Stones, Kompany, Neck Tat aren't winning the Prem. Sorry.

I love revisiting predictions.

Not only are they winning the league, they're shattering all sorts of records and also conceding the fewest goals in the league.

 

[DeacMan]

Just about 1 month until it kicks off again.


1) Man United
...
....
......
.........
............
everyone else.


Get it.

Close

my bold predictions/going out on a limb

Top 6
1) Tot'num
2) Chelsea
3) Man City
4) Man U
5) Liverpool
6) Everton

bold prediction: Arsenal not in top 6.

Bottom 3
20) Brighton
19) Huddersfield
18) Crystal Palace


Burnley squeak by in 17th.

Was bold.

Predicting Burnley to stay up was going out on a limb. Next to City they were the story of the season coming in 7th.

 

[DeacMan]

Pickford and Keane will be lucky to make the England 2018 squad, much less be regular starters/players

Lucky they are then.

 

[DeacMan]

If Salah had finished that one play it would have been sexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy.

This was pre-season. He was merely warming up.

 

[DeacMan]

Moreno looking surprisingly good so far, at least going forward. Mane and Salah on the wings are going to be amazing to watch this year.

Prescient.

 

[DeacMan]

Let's get your top 6 predictions in

Manchester City
Manchester United

17. West Brom (42)
18. Watford (38)
19. Brighton
20. Huddersfield

This must have been the official one. Not really that close either.

 

[DeacMan]

City
Chelsea
United
Pool

Pretty good since most were going to peg Chelsea for the UCL spot.

 

[DeacMan]

Manchester City
Arsenal
Tottenham
Manchester United

Chelsea out. Again, prescient.

 

[DeacMan]

Everton

Damn. Nailed the champs and got all the UCL spots right. Well done.

 

[DeacMan]

Chelsea
Man City
Tottenham
Liverpool
Man United
Arsenal

Ouch. But heading into the year I can see why you'd have gone this route.

 

[zqglass]

Official World Cup Thread? Any chance we put together another boards fantasy challenge for it?

In.

 

[DeacMan]

Man City
Liverpool
Man United
Chelsea
Spurs
Arsenal
Everton

Relegation:
Watford
Swansea
Huddersfield

Pegged the champs and Swansea. Not sure how many would have pegged Swansea to go down.

 

[DeacMan]

I'm thinking the top 10 is:

City
Spurs
Chelsea
United
Pool
Arsenal
Hammers
Everton
Palace
Burnley

Though with a few weeks left to go in the transfer window there could still be some big moves.

Damn close on Burnley's final spot.
