So folks the championship starts tomorrow. Who are you routing for to come up to the Premier league and who do you think will get relegated. Championship promotion. Fulham Sheffield United Third choice is between Middlesbrough and Bournemouth Relegation Huddersfield Luton Third choice is between Derby and Peterborough Let me know your thoughts. I think West Brom have a chance to go back up. Samuel was very unlucky with Barnsley who deserved to finish in the playoffs I need to see how Barnsley play this season to see if they have what it takes to come up to the elite level. A few seasons ago they managed to stay up by the skin of their teeth. |

Premier league teams I think that may struggle this season.
Wolves, Brighton, Burnley and maybe Southampton.
Leeds I can see getting a mid table finish.
Crystal Palace should be fine for another season in the Premier league but hopefully Arsenal legend Vieira doesn't disgrace himself.
Arsenal = No words for that team
Leicester has to try and secure that top 4 spot. It can't be a hat trick of missed opportunities.

Swansea finished 4th, Brentford 3rd - Swansea & Barnsley contested one play off semi-final and Brentford & Bournemouth contested the other. |

Love watching the Championship, excellent league and better than some of the top flight European leagues: Promotion - Bournemouth followed by West Brom with Fulham through the play offs Relegation - Derby bottom, Hull 23rd & Blackpool 22nd |

Arsenal = No words for that team Leicester has to try and secure that top 4 spot. It can't be a hat trick of missed opportunities. Top Four - Manchester City (yawn), Chelsea, Liverpool, Man United (depends on Ole's start, still very unconvincing manager) 5th to 7th - Arsenal/Leicester and then Spurs Relegation - Watford bottom, Newcastle 19th & Norwich 18th Surprise package(s): Brentford, Brighton & Palace Brentford's play is more reminiscent of a Premier League team and like Leeds, I think they'll adapt well. They do need some bodies but unlike Norwich who lost their best player last season, no one has been sniffing around Brentford's best players and they've brought a good defender in Ajer Palace are the bookies favourites to go down but so far, transfer business looks solid with the average age dropping a lot which needed to happen and Anderson, Olise & Guhei look decent buys. No interest in Zaha and an adapted Eze personally sees them safe and Vieira like working with young players as he showed at Nice Brighton are missing one thing - a reliable striker. They've put a good bid in for Edouard from Celtic using the Ben White money and if they complete that, I honestly can see them breaking into the top ten. They play fabulous football right up until the strikers where it all falls apart because they're not good enough. My opinion on Potter really changed last season |

My opinion on Potter really changed last season See with Brighton I would say they have enough to stay up but they played really sloppy on the second half of the season. They really got lucky staying up. Palace I don't think will go down but they definitely need to invest. I do hope Vieira does well. You're even being generous for the boys in N17 I would have put them 8th or 9th 😂😂😂. I think (and hopefully) Burnley may go down this season. Their luck may finally run out |

My opinion on Potter really changed last season Thoughts on Aston Villa without Grealish? Don't have any connections to Aston Villa one bit but like you can't stand city completely destroying the league imo. Relegation. Brighton Watford Norwich. |

Don't have any connections to Aston Villa one bit but like you can't stand city completely destroying the league imo. Relegation. Brighton Watford Norwich. If Grealish knows whats good for him, he'll stay where he is and wait for Ole to potentially blow up at Manchester United and then make his move for a lesser fee. I'd love to have him at Arsenal but his price tag is beyond ridiculous. Not sure if Villa would go down but they'd finish much lower without him though Buendia is a back up option for them. |

Their luck may finally run out Their form dipped because their strikers are not capable of scoring across an entire season - Welbeck and Maupay will have the odd spell here and there. I wouldn't say they were lucky to stay up - Fulham had an even more inability to stick the ball in the net and unlike Brighton's midfield where Bissouma would stick back whilst the others went forward, Fulham were not forward thinking enough hence why after drawing Newcastle United into the relegation battle (Brighton was safe at that point after their mini good run), Fulham went and bottled it starting at Villa where they led 1-0 and didn't go for the 2nd goal. Sheffield United were totally awful and West Brom enjoed leaking goals - in comparison, Brighton's defence was good and the midfield. |

I was so peeed off with them last season. They really let me down. The one game that eclipsed it for me was when they lost to West Ham and there was a penalty at Stoppage time and that was one of the worst penalties I've ever seen. |

Ahh Lookman’s woeful attempt - good of him to bounce back as he showed he could do as he was a shining light, surprised he hasn’t moved back to England |
