βIt'll be Fulham, Coventry and Man City who go downβ
βTzolis will get 15 goals and 15 assistsβ
βLeft-wing I've got Tzolis for Team of the Season. You lot are about to witness G/Aβ
β7th Liverpool. I think they're still in a transition period and they've lost Salah [...] that may have a bigger impact on the club than we thinkβ
All Theo's takes
βI can't see Glasner staying the whole seasonβ
βIt'll be Fulham, Coventry and Man City who go downβ
βI look at that Villa defence I think βGod, that is dogshitββ
βEveryone just knows Madueke's levels. He's just a bench playerβ
βGoing forward Aston Villa are fine, it's just defensively they rely on Suzuki too much. You look at LindelΓΆf and Mings at the back...β
βTzolis to Arsenal. Only Β£34m and he looks sharp. Steal, absolute steal!β
βI don't disagree with Liverpool finishing outside of the top 7β
βI think Forest will capitulate. They've lost their best player. I think the manager will have a fisty-cuff with the ownerβ
βSΓ‘vio is the most overrated player I've ever seen in my lifeβ
βLeft-wing I've got Tzolis for Team of the Season. You lot are about to witness G/Aβ
βJoΓ£o Pedro's finishing, it might actually be the best in the league other than Haalandβ
βIβm a big fan of this guy, Dorgu. Love him. Heβs so mental he causes chaos. Heβs definitely a left-winger and not a fullbackβ
βTzolis will get 15 goals and 15 assistsβ
βBenjamin Ε eΕ‘ko will score 10 premier league goalsβ
βGarnacho should go La Liga or Seria A. Just get out the Premier League. it's not suited for himβ
βArsenal are not going to get another left winger. Maybe start Tzolis and Martinelli and we go in to the market in January for a left wingerβ
βRayan, he is extremely hyped and I think he's good, I just think we need to chill out a bitβ
β7th Liverpool. I think they're still in a transition period and they've lost Salah [...] that may have a bigger impact on the club than we thinkβ
βMan Utd have a better chance than Liverpool and Chelsea at winning the titleβ
βDamsgaard goes a little under the radar. If he looked a bit sexy I think heβd get more plauditsβ
βYou look at the players in the Spurs team and you think surely they can't be shitβ
βEmery makes players that you think were just done and shit good again. Like Barkley looks class every time he comes onβ
βYalcouyΓ©, I think heβs class. I know people rate him at the minute but he could do that Brighton thing where he goes boomβ
βI don't know what Jaissle has done with Wissa but he looks like the Brentford player againβ
βColwill is Chelsea's only shining light in defence I thinkβ
βRight now in my team I'd have GroΓ, Anderson and Riceβ
βDo you not think Arbeloa is trying to play a certain style football that he just doesnβt have the ability to with the players heβs gotβ
