We are back! After
the long summer break, the English Premier League is finally set to resume on
Saturday, August 13th, 2016.
We are anticipating
another season of highs and lows, with new managers and big signings around the
big clubs.
Naijaloaded
highlights a short preview of the big boys in the league and where they are
likely to finish come May, 2017.
Arsenal: It seems
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger just, never, learns.
The gunners kick off
their English Premier League campaign against Liverpool on Sunday, August 14th,
yet their fans don’t even know who will start in defense and the captain of the
team.
Arsene Wenger’s
unwillingness to spend in the transfer window to strengthening his squad will
likely affect his team’s chances for the title this season.
Predicted Position
for Arsenal- 3rd
Chelsea: In Antonio
Conte, Chelsea have a manager that is eager to learn and a winner.
His incredible works
in Juventus speak volumes. He won three consecutive Serie A titles with the
Italian side and famously implemented the 3-5-2 formation.
Conte is expected to
bring Chelsea back to the top four in his first season.
Predicted Position for
Chelsea- 5th
Manchester United:
Manchester United are incredibly favorites to win the English Premier League
this season after spending massively in the summer transfer market.
Jose Mourinho though
is cautious, stating that he only advise his players to “Try To Win Every Game”
Yet we know Mourinho
as a winner and we expect something incredible from the Portuguese this season.
Predicted Position
for Manchester United- 1st (Champions)
Liverpool:
Only hours after
beating Barcelona 4-0 in a friendly match, Liverpool were humbled by the same
score-line against Mainz.
That has been the
problem for Jurgen Klopp’s side especially last season- they tend to flatter
but end up disappointing.
But Klopp is
determined to change that in the coming season especially with the signing of
Sadio Mane.
Predicted Position
for Liverpool- 4th
Manchester City: Pep
Guardiola has his reputation on the line when he decided to take on the
Manchester City job.
City have also
gotten very busy in the summer transfer and we expect them to challenge their
Manchester rival for the title.
Predicted Position
for Manchester City- 2nd
Bonus:
Leicester City- 6th
Tottenham- 7th
