Premier League 2025/26

Any reason why they’ve relegated wolves…

Because they aren’t all that good? I think the promoted clubs won’t have it all their own way when it comes to being relegated.

I’m surprised to see Bournemouth placed tenth. They have now lost three of their defence from last season, so they might struggle. As might Brentford, of course. Also wouldn’t be surprised to see West Ham in relegation trouble due tight-fisted owners and having Graham Potter as manager.

I gave them Burnley, but your version would be FAR more enjoyable.

They’d be talking about titles, only to smash themselves on the immovable object that is Scott Parker.

I’m surprised the optimistic score is that high for Brentford. To have had the season they had last year after the loss of Toney was a show of a club that had more about it than it seemed. To ask them to do it again next year after losing their remaining 2 forwards, CM anchor and manager is an enormous ask. They have to be one of the biggest shouts for relegation.

It’s nice that they’re all saying Liverpool, but I don’t agree. We’ve had a significant turnover in players and it’s bound to take them a while to settle, especially the defence. I can imagine us dropping points in the early part of the season which may be too many to make up. There’s not much between the top four, and there are a lot of good teams which can cause upsets along the way.

I understand our own skepticism/pessimism about our own chances, but I dont think there is another 90 point side in the league this season.

I suspect the pressure and failure to build on recent challenges will see Arsenal go backwards. I’m not convinced by the changes City have made and think there are questions to answer about how much Pep still has in him. Chelsea are a basket case of a club. Maybe Utd and Spurs will be more able to take points of the top clubs this season.

I think we could afford to get off to a slower start than last season and still dominate.

I know…it makes me feel sick aswell.

The only thing I noticed about our boys during this pre-season, is that the squad is lacking a ‘group personality’, which is only to be expected with the incoming and outgoing turnover of players.
Can expect this camaraderie to improve week by week though.

I think this, and you will also see us a little disjointed on the pitch. It’s a bit like when you get an international squad together, and they are clearly good players but they don’t have that group intelligence that tells them they know exactly where their teammates are going to be and what they are doing.

You will see this more on the defensive side of the game. I’m expecting a few daft goals conceded in the early games.

Nah..that sort of stuff doesn’t bother me at all…

To be honest I haven’t even noticed it.

If you look for things to get annoyed about then you will always find them..

No wonder with all the changes this summer… but yeah, let’s hope that a new team spirit will emerge as the season goes on.
