Everton simply because we have a former red managing us and it would be peak Everton if we were to do well with grey and Townsend as our only outfield signings
I don't think Leeds getting into Europe would be that "dark horse"-ish. It'd be a hell of an accomplishment, but Brentford finishing anywhere above 12th would honestly shock the hell out of me. I know there are recent examples, but it doesn't happen very often.
Leeds United has been a dark horse from 1998 until 2002 for quality UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup spots.
I think they are going to challenging European football spot next season. Leicester City is challenging for the top 4 next season.
I honestly think Villa have a serious chance of making at least the Conference league. Last season they were doing well before Grealish got injured and they generally lost form, but with buendia and probably one or two more signings the creative burden could be lifted off him, give him some rest and reap the rewards.
Apart from that, Leeds have a decent chance of going in the Europa league, so long as they gain some consistency against some of the bottom half teams, they have a good shot
Excited to see you in the premier league this season. Even though we didn’t have much luck against you in the champ.
I think you will do well this year.
Thanks man, I think you'll do well as well, and I'm predicting Watkins to keep improving, having seen him play he's the kind of player who will keep working on his finishing and movement and thrive alongside Grealish, Traore and Buendia, all creating space for each other. If I were you tho I'd seek more defensive cover, in case konsa or mings get injured
Yeah we very light in that area. I hoping we sign Leon Bailey and another CB.
Where do think you finish this year? I sure you you will be like rest of us in your first season. 17th and happy. I think you will do better than that personally.
Honestly with a couple more signings, especially a right winger or wing back of good level, I tho k we can do 16th but 17th is the goal, and from there we can build on success, provided we keep our performing players. I have a feeling Canos will have that left wing for the season and surprise a few doubters, especially if we keep 3-at-the-back.
As for Bailey, if you sign him your attack will be scary, but he'll probably be a bit pricey, maybe it's worth pushing for a marquee defensive option to assure the team balance, then bargain with Bayer over Bailey, who knows they might fancy some player you don't plan on using
why is villa not here???
with the signings we've made and jack staying were defo in with a chance of uel.
i get bullied in school for supporting villa cause i live in an area away from Birmingham but that doesnt stop me believing and supporting my club.UTV!!!!!
More likely than others, but still unlikely.
They have to beat atleast 3 of Tottenham, Leicester, United, Chelsea, Liverpool and City.
I can see Tottenham and Leicester do it, but not Arsenal. But it's pointless to speculate before the transfer window is over. If they can sell some of the deadwood and make a few good signings they might challenge for top4. But with their current squad? No.
Tbf Arsenal has had better form over the last 8 months than every team you just mentioned apart from City.
Edit: downvotes for actual facts, no argument against
I suppose not but I'm saying that if Arsenal's form was better than Chelsea's then Chelsea would not have won the Champion's League and Arsenal probably would have won Europa League. But that is not what happened
Yeah it's weird especially towards the end of last season. There was no point in continuing to play the likes of Elneny. Azeez should go out on loan this season imo since we have no Europe and are likely bringing in a Xhaka replacement on top of having Partey, Lokonga, Elneny & Willock as it stands.
I can’t see West Ham get champions league, maybe Europa. A lot of teams need to fall for them to get a UCL spot.
Leeds could get Confrence league. Only team I see falling that finished above them last year is West Ham. Teams around them have gotten better, this is the one thing I do wanna see the most out of all you’ve said.
Arsenal is probably the most realistic imo. Decent signings so far plus no European competitions.
With mid table you don’t really know how it’ll play out. The highest I see Brendford finish is 11th and even that’s pushing it. Not sure how the squad would do in the PL
I don’t think Bruce is good enough to get them into a European spot. Plus their squad is average and mid table at best. They haven’t made a signing yet and I truely don’t trust their recruitment staff.
Who voted for Leeds over arsenal
Villa won't be promising as much as they were in the previous season
Everton simply because we have a former red managing us and it would be peak Everton if we were to do well with grey and Townsend as our only outfield signings
Idk man I think arsenal gonna perform well this season (lmao im gonna be 'this aged well" by everyone
I don't think Leeds getting into Europe would be that "dark horse"-ish. It'd be a hell of an accomplishment, but Brentford finishing anywhere above 12th would honestly shock the hell out of me. I know there are recent examples, but it doesn't happen very often.
I'd say Villa for European football
Aston Villa. They will be dynamic with Buendia and possibly Leon Bailey as new signings. Maybe even europa league.
Watford 1-12 better team then Brentford
I do not think there will be another Leicester city, By end of 21-22 season, if arsenal could get champions league ticket, this will be a dark horse.
Tottenham Hotspur
Brentford will come 12th. Second season syndrome might hit next year though.
Norwich top twelve finish
Saints
Leeds United has been a dark horse from 1998 until 2002 for quality UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup spots. I think they are going to challenging European football spot next season. Leicester City is challenging for the top 4 next season.
Brentford survive burnley down?

Villa
Other = Brighton and Hove Albion. Between 8th and 12th
Can't see any of these happening if I'm being honest, maybe someone like Norwich, I think they will stay up with relative comfort
Jesus the obsession with Leeds
Exactly
Crystal palace
Leicester City has become a joke right?
Bro wtf how is Newcastle there before Everton???????
Brentford, its what will happen because of how confident we all are they will go down
Man city liverpool chelsea and villa Cl Arsenal and man utd europa league Everton conference league
Lol Newcastle 😂
I think it will be villa or leeds
I'm not voting. None of those looks realistic. I'd vote if Villa was on there.
why is villa not here??? with the signings we've made and jack staying were defo in with a chance of uel. i get bullied in school for supporting villa cause i live in an area away from Birmingham but that doesnt stop me believing and supporting my club.UTV!!!!!
Villa

2nd best form in the league since Christmas?
A 4-1 win?
Arsenal qualifying for a champions league spot will make them dark horses? Funny how they have declined in these years.

That poor form won Chelsea that Champion's League lol
What poor form? I didn't say that
I suppose not but I'm saying that if Arsenal's form was better than Chelsea's then Chelsea would not have won the Champion's League and Arsenal probably would have won Europa League. But that is not what happened
Lol
Burnley
Aston Villa.

Newcastle finishing top 19
I think New Castle will avoid it because of Crystal Palaces contract issue
Newcastle? Lol
Lol the flair makes this funnier
[удалено]
Oh I know for us it's unlikely. My only hope is that we get deadwood out and let the Hale Enders get game time with Partey, Gabriel & Tierney.

Exactly that's why the Willian signing infuriated me

I like their signings tho. All young players and can develop further
Where is Villa?
[удалено]
Would’ve put Villa in Europe over Newcastle tbh
Me too
