Arsenal To Secure 21st St Totteringham's Day & Other 2016 Predictions

Louis Van Gaal to get Utd Back on Track - But Take all the Credit

For Van Gaal to take Utd to a much needed Champions League slot last term with a defence less organised than Chuck Blazer's Weight Watcher Calorie Counting Diary, is nothing short of a miraculous achievement.

Trying at least three hundred and forty eight different formations and with twelve assorted Skippers, the Red Devils at times looked all at sea. So for them to rise above the rest of the riff-raff and snaffle the last European Cup spot is testament to the work Van Gaal is doing.

With Depay already added, United are on their way to addressing some of the issues they had last season, but there are many more where that came from.
United had an upturn in fortunes when Carrick could be called upon to organise the ranks. With Carrick another year older, expect United to sign someone to play his role.

Hernandez and Falcao are expected to leave, and with Van Persie finally showing his true colours in regards to injury, Van Gaal will be scouring the market for a marksman.

Along with an effective striker, United could really benefit from a more experienced backline and a replacement for an outbound De Gea. Van Gaal to consolidate his sides league position and then proclaim himself "The King of Mancheshter"

Tottenham Hotspur to finish below the Champions League Spots and for the 21st Year running - Arsenal....Again

You have to admire Spurs fans really. For so long a time they have been subjected to humiliation and degradation at the hands of their superiors, but every year they proclaim that ' This is Our Year!!!' and will finally finish above Arsenal.

Obviously. They quite clearly have a squad that can't compete on any level with their neighbours, nor can they say that the funds they bring in are in any capacity the numbers needed to claim they are as big a club. Then there is the awful stadium, the terrible purchases, the manager.......

Yet, they will still have aspirations that this is the year they can shake off the shackles and rise gloriously - like a fiery chicken from a launchpad comprised entirely of a basketball - to a new level. One where they can cast an eye downward on their enemies clad in red and white.

They will claim this is the season where they triumph. Arsenal fans will laugh, wait until the inevitable 21st St Totteringham's Day and then proceed to bust a spleen from fits of laughter. Again.

Other than these predictions, the Premier League is a delightful hotch-potch of the unexpected. Any team can show up at a ground and leave with maximum points. Any player can have a debut season where they leave their colleagues and rivals in the shade. Who knows who will triumph? Who will be Top Boy when it comes to goals? No-one can claim to know any of it. That is what makes the Premiership so special.

One last prediction. Harry Kane will score less than he did last season and be the new face for Playmobil.....
