Thank god football is returning this weekend, finally putting to an end this bleak sports vacuum of the last couple of weeks. Some predictions:
- Man City will pip Liverpool to the title again, and no new teams will break into the top 6
- One of Frank Lampard or Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will not be a manager next season
- The relegation battle will go down to the final weekend, and the following teams will be relegated: Sheff Utd, Norwich, Brighton
- VAR will still result in major controversy
- English sides will not dominate European football this year
- Due to the closeness of the races at the top and bottom of the league, the most amount of money ever will be spent on vastly overrated players in this season’s January transfer window
- Harry Kane will experience a major injury and Tottenham will fade at the end of the season, yet again
- Everton will flatter to deceive, yet again
- Newcastle will have a surprisingly good season under Steve Bruce (but he’ll get fired next season)
- Palace will be one of the lowest-scoring teams in the league
