Lo Celso is a great pick up though!

Is that good or bad for United mate? I would have thought losing Lukaku as such wasn't so bad, but no replacement? I rate Rashford and Martial but do you bat deep enough in scoring options?

Got a decent price for him and he is fat and lazy. Not sure it’s a huge loss but Woody needs to be run out of the club with his lack of signings

Are we gonna do a predictions comp like in previous years? Seems a bit light on for interested parties though...

I have a feeling City and Liverpool will continue their dominance, Chelsea haven't been able to replace Hazard and look vulnerable to drop off

At the other end I think, like you Doc, Sheffield will struggle but I reckon Newcastle will drop (seriously, they signed Andy Carroll...?!?) And Norwich, Brighton and Palace fighting for their lives...

1 Man City
2 Liverpool
3 Tottenham
4 Arsenal
5 Man Utd
6 Everton
7 West Ham
8 Chelsea
9 Leicester
10 Wolves
11 Watford
12 Bournemouth
13 Burnley
14 Southampton
15 Aston Villa
16 Crystal Palace
17 Norwich
18 Brighton
19 Newcastle
20 Sheffield Utd

I'm hoping our Saints fare a lot better this season and push for a top 10 spot. They will benefit from having a pre season under Ralph and we should see a high energy, high pressing, attacking game style. Ings is fit, Che Adams looks the goods and along with Redmond up front, we should see a lot more goals. Still a little concerned by our defence and their ability to allow opposition to score soft goals. Hopefully we can get a result at Burnley tonight.

Is Yoshida in your starting XI? If so then you'd better score PLENTY because you're gonna need them!

I'm surprised how many Saints fans are around, almost more than the plastics I know...

I’m looking for a shift in mindset from instead of defending a lead, to trying to double our lead when in that situation.
As you said, the fire power is definitely there.

That's a little harsh on Yoshi. I doubt he'll start against Burnley, even though we usually set up with 3 Centre Backs. Yoshi is probably 4th in line of our 6 Centre Backs and to be honest, none of them fill me with great confidence.

Very disappointing start for Saints with more calamity at the back allowing Burnley 3 goals in 12 minutes. Maybe Yoshida should have played?

Nice 4-0 win over the Chavs to start the season and didn’t the fans let Fat Frank know about it :)

I notice Spurs are paying $10.00 to beat Manchester City this weekend. That seems to be crazy odds to me.

City giving Spurs a hammering in the first half at Etihad.
Only up 2-1 but have had about 14 attempts to Spurs 1.
