Most controversial takes
βMateus Fernandes, triple relegated, he is the worst signing I've seen in all my lifeβ
βMan City have provided a net positive to English football within the last 10, 15 yearsβ

βIs Man Utd's midfield a million miles off Arsenal. I don't think it isβ
βTzolis is better than Rashford, on Β£400k a week stinking the gaff outβ

All Buvey's takes
βEven if Saliba was out for 12 months injured, Konsa and Gabriel win Arsenal the titleβ
βTzolis is better than Rashfordβ
βKonsa is better than Lisandro Martinezβ
βMan City have provided a net positive to English football within the last 10, 15 yearsβ
βMidfield player of the season, I'll go for a big one, Adam Wharton, BOSH!β
βI think Daniel Farke could be sacked by Januaryβ
βRecce James is so overrated now [...] he had a poor World Cup, always injury prone, doesn't even qualify for Europe anymoreβ
βBest player of the season is going to be Erling Haaland. He's just come off a generational World Cup, I think he'll bang 30 easyβ
βJacquet is fantastic, he will be a world class centre-back one day. 100%. He's got everything in the lockerβ
βBrighton can qualify for the Champions League because we're now seeing three of the big six struggling. Chelsea, Man Utd and Tottenhamβ
βAndy Robertson isn't good enough to be starting for a side that need to be in the Champions Leagueβ
βIf Alonso can sure things up defensively he'll get Chelsea top 5 easyβ
βLuka VuΕ‘koviΔ will be a Β£100m centre-back in the next few years, easy. He's a Real Madrid centreback!β
βWirtz is an absolute generational transfer flop, this is Shevchenko 5.0 and it's awfulβ
βI love the signing of Ndiaye, I think that's better than the Enzo FernΓ‘ndez signingβ
βKevin Schade isn't better than Martinelli β
βChelsea paid a massive fee for Morgan Rogers, I'm not sure what he provides. I don't think he will ever be a world-class footballerβ
βI think there's a good chance Sesko scores more goals than Isakβ
βI look at Saka and I go where's that star elementβ
βPep is the greatest manager in the history of footballβ
βDespite how much they've spent, Tottenham are going to really struggleβ
βTottenham do not beat Aston Villa, they don't beat themβ
βIs Man Utd's midfield a million miles off Arsenal. I don't think it isβ
βMax Dowman is going to get a lot of football [...] he'll get to 20 games this seasonβ
βDonnarumma on his worst day is better than Lammens has ever had in his life as a keeperβ
βDe Zerbi coming out and publicly criticising Spurs was absurd and damagingβ
βMy flop of the season is Bruno Fernandes - he was punching miles above his weight playing one game a weekβ
βTottenham will get smashed away at Forestβ
βWhenever Kobbie Mainoo is in the side, I just think Man Utd tick, they have a rhythm of play, they're more calmβ
βMarmoush won't score 11 Premier League goals this seasonβ
βLacroix is a Gary Cahill, he hasn't got a John Terry next to him, do you know what time trying to sayβ
βCoventry will be the highest-finishing promoted team.β
βEnzo FernΓ‘ndez is signing of the seasonβ
βHarwood-Bellis is nowhere good enough to play in the Premier League for Aston Villaβ
βWirtz doesn't try hard, wears long sleeves in summer, no physicality, no belief, looks homesick, looks anemicβ
βI'm not worried about Chelsea in this title raceβ
βI'd sell Mathys Tel, he's absolutely rubbish mate, absolute rubbishβ
βNdiaye is a better natural winger than Phil Fodenβ
βSpurs should get Eddie Howe, he's available, he understands the league, he makes you solid, he makes players play for you.]β
βGonzalo GarcΓa is a big flat flop for Fulhamβ
βMan Utd are little bit overrated, you had one game a season, it was an absolute luxuryβ
βMerino is more of a viable option upfront than GyΓΆkeres as backupβ
βMosquera and Konsa is better than Man Utd's defensive partnership, and potential Man City's and Chelsea'sβ
βWharton for me is a better player than Mainooβ
βIf anything happens to Havertz, Arsenal will be in a world of pain. The link up play, the finishing, the movementβ
βIt's an absurd claim and not proportionally to remove City's titlesβ
βBouaddi has to start with Elliot Anderson if Man City were to play against PSG in the Champions League finalβ
βNewcastle punched so high, GonzΓ‘lez didn't really want to go there, he thinks he's better than that. They've lulled in a big big fish.β
βMan City finish top 2 for sure, City are miles ahead of Man Utdβ
βStarting Rashford every single week is going to cost United pointsβ
βAn outside shout for right-back POTS is Kayode at Brentfordβ
βTzolis - GyΓΆkeres - Saka isn't a world-class front threeβ
βI don't even know if Haaland will get in the Team of the Season, the haircut is winding me up to be honestβ
βPhil Foden has improved his overall but he isn't a right wingerβ
βRogers is harder than Riceβ
βBrentford are going to get relegatedβ
βArsenal's forward line is worse than last yearβ
βThe Bruno Fernandes train may be overβ
βTzolis is better than Rashford, on Β£400k a week stinking the gaff outβ
βArsenal should have signed Morgan Rogers, instead they get Tzolis from Norwich Cityβ
βBrentford away is one of the toughest away days in European football, Chelsea would rather go to Atletico Madrid than Brentford away β
βMarmoush is comparable to Ε eΕ‘ko, JoΓ£o Pedro, and GyΓΆkeres. He isn't worse than GyΓΆkeres for sureβ
βNico GonzΓ‘lez is one that's going to break my heart everytime he puts in a 10/10 performance, becase he should be doing it on some level for [Man] Cityβ
βCarrick is not going to win the sack race ahead of De Zerbiβ
βWe're going to see a four-way title race deep into the seasonβ
βMarmoush I think will come good for Tottenhamβ
βMarmoush looks poor, Savinho looks poor, Tonali looks a million miles off of itβ
βMateus Fernandes, triple relegated, he is the worst signing I've seen in all my lifeβ
βCity should get a massive symbolic points deduction and a massive symbolic fine that represents some sort of massive benefit to the rest of English footballβ
βWhen Eze gets going, he does things Γdegaard could only dream ofβ
βI don't want Enzo FernΓ‘ndez (at Man City)β
βSpurs are more likely to finish mid-table than anything else, but I don't see them getting in to Europeβ
βI worry about De Zerbi. His side have got no style, no physicality, no braveryβ
βI like the Newcastle manager, I think he looks young, ambitious and hungryβ
βGonzalo GarcΓa won't score the kind of goals that keeps Fulham in the leagueβ
βArsenal are 50% favourites to win this title, Manchester City 35%, Chelsea 10%, Man Utd & Liverpool 5%β
βCarlos Baleba is only 22 years old, it's absurd how high his ceiling isβ
βI'd love to see Donnarumma back in Italian football. I could see him playing at Real Madrid, replace Courtoisβ
βLeeds can finish top 8, easilyβ
βHull City will get the lowest points total in the history of this country. I think they're the worst side to ever get promotedβ
βO'Reilly is due a big season, i think he could be in midfield, that's the concernβ
βArsenal will get more than 85 points this seasonβ
βWe have to talk about how scary Arsenal are going to be in the title raceβ
βMan City would still finish above Man Utd with a 100 point deductionβ
βI'll go Lacroix for TOTS, I think Chelsea are going to be a lot better this season, he's in his prime years, pacey, powerfulβ
βScott could be an all round midfielder at Real Madrid level scoring goals, a bit like a Jude Bellingham profileβ
βINEOS are so inept they won't get rid of Carrick quicklyβ
βThe right-back for Liverpool is a real problem. Frimpong offers very very little, he's , not physical enoughβ
βThe Newcastle United manager is going to really really struggleβ
βΒ£93m for Tonali, they've had their pants pulled down hereβ
βBruno Fernandes is a cheap bottle of beer in how he carries himselfβ
βManzambi could have a higher ceiling than Morgan Rogersβ
βLiverpool still need a defensive midfielder who can win the ball and stop play, like Caicedo β
βMan Utd are crap aren't they. They've got no passages of play, no style, no grace, no elegance, no aesthetic qualityβ
βΕ eΕ‘ko might be top 4, top 5 strikers in the leagueβ
βElliot Anderson, of all the new signings, he is the most likely to stay at Man Cityβ
βIt's absolutely absurd to think that Pep knew what was going on behind the scenes at Cityβ
βArsenal want a tekky winger [...] they should have signed Barcolaβ
βPhil Foden will be the most improved player of the season.β
βI don't think Chelsea beat City home or awayβ
βJames Justin is criminally slept on by football fansβ
