So it's that time of year again, with BBC Pundits providing their wonderful insight to provide us with a stab in the dark at how the top 6 will end up at the end of the season. They've actually predicted their top 4 and awarded points to each team depending on where they come in each pundits prediction.
With their point scoring City they have the top 6 as follows:
1. Man City
2. Liverpool
3. Man Utd
4. Tottenham
5. Chelsea
6. Arsenal
They have Man City as clear favourites, with only Liverpool having a half chance of beating them, but still being way behind. Man Utd come comfortably into third, while Spurs just pip Chelsea to 4th and Arsenal languishing in 6th
My personal prediction would be:
1. City
2. Liverpool
3. Arsenal
4. Spurs
5. Chelsea
6. Everton
7. Utd
I think City will take it and Liverpool will run them close a lot of the time, but probably end up throwing it away in a frustrating fashion.
Probably be a bit of a gap to third, but I think Arsenal will take that due to a mixture of delusion and thinking the teams below us are in a worse situation. I think a new manager will invigorate us and we've got the most balanced squad we've had in a while and while our defence is still a bit suspect, we have some great attacking talent and won't struggle for goals.
Spurs I think will go steady again, but with no new signings can't really see them moving forward.
Chelsea will probably finish strongly, but I think due to the summer of disarray that they've had it'll take them a while to get going and playing 'Sarriball'.
Utd have a quality squad, probably 2nd or 3rd best in the league, but Mourinho looks depressed to me. Seems to hate his job and be alienating everyone around him, wouldn't be surprised to see him fulfil the third season syndrome prophecy.
Please add your thoughts and predictions

Just can't see Spurs bothering the Top 4 this season unless they strengthen their squad in a few key positions. Too one dimensional and far too reliant on Eriksen for creativity. They need more options going forward.

You say that every season, and every season Spurs do bother the top four. Thanks for your concern though.

well put down Sandy

They didn't so I don't think they will be improving on there league position significantly this season.

Not concern, just observation.
It should be yours though.
We've bought everyone & everything so, obviously, it will be plain sailing all the way....
