Will be a great season. More matches thanks to NBCSN, top three from last year all have different managers.

Come on Arsenal!!!

Early season fire for United with Swansea, Chelsea, Liverpool & City in their first 5 matches. No pressure, Moyes. It'll also be his chance to finally WIN against a top-4 club.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

No reason for Villa to finishing any lower than midtable this year.

Young players have plenty of experience, offense is in high drive *assuming Benteke stays* and they added to the backfield and key parts of the midfield.

While they won't challenge for Europa, they should challenge for at least one domestic cup.

Who does everyone see getting relegated?

I see Stoke as a definite, Crystal Palace and probably Hull City challenging for the other spots.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

That's a pretty good list of relegation candidates. I'd also throw Newcastle in there. They're looking like a mess again.

I think Cardiff are going to be the team that sticks around from this group. They've been close to promotion for a few years now it seems.

Also, (assuming Suarez stays), Liverpool got pretty lucky with the fixture list while he finishes out his suspension.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

Even though they had a fantastic season last time around, I can see WBA in the relegation dogfight unless they can replace Lukaku. And I agree with Tim, Newcastle are in state of disarray.

Stoke are another one I fear for. Mark Hughes will likely attract the same rubbish he had at Blackburn. He's already being linked to Roque Santa Cruz and David Bentley.
