    Hedged my bets :) Atletico in the middle of a transition, lost a lot of good players. Valencia held onto most and should be solid again this season.

    Mate of mine who follows Spanish football is very enthusiastic about Sevilla this season. They are 1/2 for top 6 (a market that is hard to find in most bookies) but he said they are a decent shout for too 4.

    There's a market I just can't get away from, Everton and Leicester both to score 59.5 goals is 18/1 with PP. It'll go very close imo with two attack minded coaches.

    Had a small stake on that at 22/1 - seems achievable given that they were at 54 and 51 last season and Everton have signed a striker and Leicester will have a more attacking coach for a full season.

    However look back a previous seasons and usually only 3/4 teams per year score 60+ goals and unsurprisingly it’s usually the big teams in the top 4.

    I think Everton have only scored about 3 goals in about 6/7 preseason games

    Anyone any thoughts on the premiership sack race? I'm thinking I'd be close to a sure thing if I backed Hodgson, Bruce and Solskjaer. Can't see anyone else close to the firing line, and surely at least one of them will have the proverbial 'slow start'?

    Poured over the specials markets on Premier League with PP, ladbrokes, betvictor and william hill. Bigger stakes on the first 4/5 selections and the rest are just for fun:

    Leicester top half/Newcastle bottom half 4/5 (Ladbrokes)

    Spurs top 4, Everton & Leicester top 10 and Brighton & Newcastle bottom half 2/1 (BetVictor)

    City win the league, Spurs top 4, Sheff Utd relegated 7/2 (PP)

    Liverpool top 2, Leicester top 10, Newcastle bottom 10, Sheff Utd relegated 9/2 (WH - they sent me a link to this price so not on their site)

    Liverpool top 2, Wolves to finish outside top 8, Brighton relegated 8/1 (WH)

    Billy Sharp to score 10+ goals 10/1 (PP) - don't really think it will happen but seems overpriced

    Liverpool and Man City to win first 5 games 12/1 (WH)

    City win the league/Liverpool and Spurs top 4/Arsenal outside top 4/Brighton relegated 16/1 (PP)

    City win the league/Liverpool and Spurs top 4/Arsenal outside top 4/Newcastle relegated 14/1 (PP)

    Leicester and Everton to score above 59+ goals 22/1 (PP)

    Leicester, Everton and Wolves to score 59+ goals 150/1 (PP)

    Also did William Hill specials of Salah top goalscorer at 7/1 and Liverpool win league/Salah top scorer 20/1.

    One other market which I think their is decent value and potential for accums is the 'Player Season Premier League Goals' on William Hill. Below are some of the ones I liked, have them in descending order based on how confident I'd be on them hitting their target:

    Firmino over 11 goals 8/11
    Josh King over 9 goals 8/11
    Che Adams over 6 goals 8/13
    Diogo Jota over 9 goals 5/6
    Dele Alli over 6 goals 8/11
    Son Heung-Min over 11 goals 10/11
    Chris Wood over 7 goals 4/7
    Gabriel Jesus over 11 goals 10/11
    Wesley Moares over 7 goals 8/11
    Felipe Anderson over 6 goals 10/11
    Gerard Duelofeu over 8 goals 10/11
    Leandro Trossard over 4 goals 1/1

    Each bet covering the other. In theory...

    Backing Seville for the Europa, Brits have to run out of luck at some stage...

    Not too confident of this at the halfway stage of the season. Need Mansfields new manager to get a tune out of them sharpish if I'm ti have any chance come April. Anyone holding any nice tickets?

    Neither going great, mainly due to the same teams screwing up e.g. West Ham, Mansfield, Wrexham. Not dead and buried yet but not sure I'll be getting the run for my money I did last season :o

    Did pool or city for cl , Inter or Sevilla for el , Belgium or france for euros earlier in the week. 8x 4£ trebles for 32£ total pays 1400 at the biggest odds. Hopefully will give me an interest for the rest of the season. Mansfield torpedoed my original ante post bet after a few weeks
