The 2014-15 EPL Discussion Thread

[ImTellinTim]

The season is only a month away if you can believe that. Preseason friendlies will be kicking off soon if they haven't already.

Should be a wide open season again.

Discuss.

I will be the first to put my predicted top 4 out there.

I'll make my predictions when the transfer window shuts.

Really excited, this will be my first full season of following the EPL. I started following around the halfway point last year. Hopefully Everton improves on a good season and cracks the top 4.

One does not simply knock Arsenal out of the top 4

I don't have a dog in the EPL fight (AC Milan above all) but its so fun to read the epl threads and watch as an outsider

Anyone of Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal, or Liverpool could win the league this year. That's how wide open I think things are. I know people will say "but Pool lost Suarez," but I think if players like Sturridge, Coutinho, and Sterling pick up where they left off, Pool will be in great shape. IMO, there's no clear favorite.

Maybe I'll put some effort into keeping up with Everton this year. Or maybe I'll pick someone else. Who knows what could happen when I actually follow!

3RD? Let's not get to wild here, WAAWman. I'll have the usual, a 4th place trophy.

Chelsea sit on top of the table pretty late in the season, then the wear and tear of the CL and or FA Cup (which I imagine them going very deep in) is too much. This all is going off current rosters, of course.

I dunno, Spurs fans were saying the same thing last year.....

Re: The 2014-15 EPL Discussion Thread

Spurs had no identity and no clue what they wanted to do. They just spent the money to spend it. Rodgers knows what he's doing.

I agree, but you forgot to mention Henderson in that conversation for Liverpool. He was in great for Liverpool and they certainly missed him in the last few games of the season, especially against Chelsea.

Re: The 2014-15 EPL Discussion Thread

Just remember, when Suarez was banned for 10 matches for biting Ivanovic we went 7-2-1 with 19 goals scored. It is not all doom and gloom when he's not there.
