So before the season starts and things become clearer who's fodder and who's the Champs let's all indulge in to the mystic future and predict the final table come May 2020 , to make this more interesting you will earn 1 point for correctly guessing a team in it's correct position , this will no doubt settle who knows anything at all about football on NSC , the winner will then carry off the Inaugural NSC I KNOW MY STUFF Trophy , so without further ado here are my Talkshite predictions .

Liverpool

Man City

Man Utd

Chelsea

Spurs

Everton

Arsenal

Bournemouth

Wolves

Leicester

West Ham

Watford

Southampton

Burnley

Brighton

Aston Villa

Sheffield Utd

Crystal Palace

Burnley

Newcastle

Norwich

Burnley twice.

-----------------

1) Liverpool
2) Man City
3) Tottenham
4) Leicester
5) Chelsea
6) Everton
7) Arsenal
8) West Ham
9) Man Utd
10) Wolves
11) Aston Villa
12) Brighton
13) Southampton
14) Bournemouth
15) Watford
16) Newcastle
17) Burnley
18) Norwich
19) Sheffield United
20) Crystal Palace

Palace have had an hilarious pre-season, lurching from catastrophe to catastrophe, including their full team being stuff 4-0 at home by Hertha Berlin last weekend. I think they're going to have a firesale come January and be marooned by march. Sheffield United and Norwich have plenty of grit and desire but not enough quality. I think Villa will do well first season but struggle in the second season. We'll be fine, genuine quality throughout the team now and a manager prepared to let the boys play.

At the top, I really think Leicester are a massive danger and Everton have assembled a good squad so I can see them upsetting the big boys. Man Utd are so reliant on slabhead at the back but I think they'll struggle and Arsenal will need to do a Liverpool of a couple of years ago, start the season with a joke defence but identify and then sign their equivalent to Van Dijk in the January window. Their front 3 of Aubameyang, Lacazette, Pepe is as good as Mane, Firmino, Salah - but their defence is a sham.

I like this, I'm very similar, if not as bolshy at the top, think Arsenal will do better than expected but yes do agree top 6 will be breached, and Sheff Utd (defensive) much better placed to stay up than Norwich (attacking). I think Villa will do well
