Premier League 2014/15 Thread

Re: Premire League 2014/15 Thread

Every year people think arsenal will drop out of the top 4. It's not happened for nearly 20 years. It's not going to happen next season either.

Think it's very dangerous for them this year - at the moment the squad is paper thin - no real CB cover , no DM , no striker cover and still relying on players who spend a great deal of time keeping the physio company

If they do bring in at the very least a CB and a DM then would see them in the Top 4 as long as players stay fit

It's certainly looking good for you with Barkley Signing a new contract & buying Lukaku.
I thought you'd struggle after Moyes left tbh,but you seem to have kicked on.

David Moyes was a myth, massively overrated, and that was clearly evident when he went to Man United. He got away with a lot of stuff at Everton based on his early career there, which was good, but this is a man that always and I mean always went out to NOT lose a game.

He never went out to win one, and he never hid away from that fact in his pre-game press conferences. Martinez comes in and says right, we need to change the mentality, we need to look at teams like Man U and Arsenal and know that we are not only capable of competing, but winning too.

Doing the double over Man U last season was proof of how far we have come, and how less an influence Moyes was. Add that into the performances against Arsenal in the league home and away. Apart from the Liverpool away game (in which we dominated possession but were naive against a very good counter attacking side) and one or two silly results, it was an outstanding season with some pretty special goals, from all over the field.

Really excited for the season.

Liverpool fans know last season was a fluke , LS not there now so it be back to 6 or 7 place maybe , they are just hoping as thats all they got , me , i hope we do well again as thats 2 trophies in a few months , You cant win The CS if you finish 2nd as only winners play in it not losers . now maybe the league again as things always come in threes

The CS is a pre season friendly - last season Man UTD won it and look what happened to them - it's a much a relevance as your Emirates Cup, lots of clutching at straws.

We could say your FA Cup win was a fluke

Even Wenger won't be counting the CS as a major trophy.
Moyes won it last year & look at how that ended :o

So by your logic our season last season wasn't a fluke

No just lucky because if LS had told the truth about his release fee he would have been at Arsenal , now he is in spain and you be 30 goals down as that kind of player gives your team bite up front .
 
Re: Premire League 2014/15 Thread

City
Chelsea
Arsenal
Man Utd
Liverpool
Everton

I think it might be a close run thing and I fancy Arsenal, injuries permitting, to stay in the hunt for a large part of the season. Similarly, I think United will be rejuvenated under Van Gaal.

Its like Wenger says , if you lose you lost a trophy at Wembley , if you win everyone says it was a friendly , but it counts in the trophy count , thats good enough for me
