Is it that time of year again already? But before embarking on my latest predictions I wanted to see how I did last time out.
My prediction | How they finished |
1. Chelsea | 1. Chelsea |
2. Man City | 2. Man City |
3. Arsenal | 3. Arsenal |
4. Liverpool (-2) | 4. Man Utd |
5. Man Utd (+1) | 5. Spurs |
6. Spurs (+1) | 6. Liverpool |
7. Everton (-5) | 7. Southampton |
8. Newcastle (-7) | 8. Swansea |
9. Stoke | 9. Stoke |
10. Southampton (+3) | 10. Palace |
11. Swansea (+3) | 11. Everton |
12. Palace (+2) | 12. West Ham |
13. Hull (-5) | 13. WBA |
14. West Ham (+2) | 14. Leicester |
15. QPR (-5) | 15. Newcastle |
16. Villa (-1) | 16. Sunderland |
17. Sunderland (+1) | 17. Villa |
18. WBA (+5) | 18. Hull |
19. Leicester (+5) | 19. Burnley |
20. Burnley (-1) | 20. QPR |
So only 4 correct out of 20 which doesn’t seem great. I will take partial credit for Burnley as they did still get relegated. The top 3 seemed pretty predictable to me and getting Stoke’s placing right was pleasing. I’m also very happy to see that my beloved Tottenham Hotspur exceeded my expectations (it’s a rare occurrence). Even if in reality it didn’t make much real difference it’s still nice to finish above Liverpool and I’m sure Pochettino was glad to finish two clear of his former club Southampton. I suppose all these predictions illustrate is beyond the top 6 clubs how tight and therefore unpredictable the rest of the division is and I’m sure this campaign will be no different.
Anywho let’s move on to 2015-2016…
