That's Chelski... you can't put them in the same frame as anyone else.

Wow. United are really going for it right away. I think I may just pencil their name in as Champions at the moment.

If Chelsea want to keep on par with them they're going to need a couple of top players.

If Liverpool want to try and make a push for a title, they're going to need to spend HUGE amounts.

If Arsenal want to catch United.. They'll need a miracle.

Liverpool and Arsenal won't stand a chance. I'm 99% certain!! At the moment, they just can't...

25M euros for a guy like Hargreaves... no comments.
24,5M euros for non-proven EPL kid like Anderson. (Bright future though)
25,5M euros for Nani. Specially this one. Not worth more than 15M IMHO.

Probably they'll buy 1 or 2 more.

And Chelsea is the one who spends big? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)


-Chelsea need a CB, a creative AMC and a foward. A full-back maybe.
-Liverpool needs a top-class foward, left-winger and RB.
-Arsenal... dunno.

At the moment... please. They've more than 90 days to buy... let's wait and see. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

the deals are GOLD
though united overpayed, as usual,
but I'm sure that they won't regret it in the next few years...

and the glazers will spend more .this summer, thats deadset....

Liverpool plan to spend big, I doubt they'll spend more than £30m in total.
Arsenal don't plan to spend big, and never do. They'll carry on 'building for the future'. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

United and Chelski will be battling it out for the title against next year. Liverpool will have a 'limbo' year.. They'll be too far off the pace to challenge, but way ahead of 4th place.

I realy think this is the year the 'big 4' are broken, (Depending on this summer) Arsenal will lose their place, Spurs are too strong now, and have been catching the last few years. Wengers last year at Arsenal, he's getting the boot.

In 3 months I'll make my predictions about EPL 20'7/08. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Let's just relax, as European Champions (get in English press!), and wait.

Wow... I'm a big fan of Nani. What great moves for Man U. I'm actually jealous... I want some exciting signings too... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I just said that Anderson's price tag would never reach the 45m height you suggested...


I meant next season. Even if Liverpool buy all three Alves, Silva and Villa they'll still stay far behind United and Chelsea. Arsenal need a revolution!!

we really need to be agressive in the transfer market. sure we just won the CL, but serie a must be our main objective next season, and we will need 3-4 good signings for that.

All the bad stuff about Arsenal, you know who's going to come in with his view (which is always completely unbiased (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) )

(IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Even Locke must believe there's almost no hope of them coming close. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Teams change, people change... players get better. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Just look at Onighted. They changed 1-2 players since Benfica humiliated and kicked them out of CL 05/06 (everybody made fun of them)... and this year they're godlike... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

PS: Oh, and Dani Alves is something else. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Liverpool (or other team) would get a big boost just for gettin' him.

I think Arsenal fans would dissagree with that aspect. Wenger is Arsenal (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

If Wenger leaves, Arsenal would fall apart. It is his team, his ideology, his tactics, and his plans that has brought Arsenal into contention in the EPL.

He leaves, only certain coaches can continue at his level (i.e. Guus Hiddnik). He wont leave not for another 5 years. Till his chicklets hatch (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
