Top 6 is set in stone, just a matter of the order.
1) Man Utd
2) Man City
3) Chelsea
4) Arsenal
5) Liverpool
6) Spurs
Absolutely no transfer activity that matters. We're lucky our game has been postponed, it buys us more time to buy someone. Everyone else has strengthened, so we won't be doing anything, short of a very convenient set of flops. We're still better than the rest of the dross though. Man City are an x-factor and could finish as low as 5th or 6th - or they could win the league by miles. I have them finishing second. Arsenal in 4th more or less on principle, since even without Fabregas or Nasri they're still better than Liverpool.
Liverpool are a big x-factor as well. I don't buy that Kenny Dalglish is this magic, miracle-working manager. There were a lot of factors in place for Liverpool to improve greatly. The traditional "new manager" boost for one - and then that was augmented by signing Suarez, the new owners and the general optimism surrounding the club. You don't walk back into modern football after a decade and "get it" immediately.
He was playing 3-5-2 for christ's sake. That isn't "revolutionary" or "innovative" as the media and MotD tried to tell me, that is an old, outdated tactic that was left behind...at about the time Dalglish left management, actually. Completely obsoleted by lone-striker systems. If he does that again, through the course of a season? lmfao. Don't think he'll play that formation with Downing, mind, but you never know.
