New season prediction !!!

mickman · 09-08-2014 02:20PM #1

I love this time of year , can't beat the start of the new season excitement

This summer is nothing like last years thankfully - a few players in and a few players out. I like what has been done so far but up top still worries me big time or will he play lamela off the one front man ?

Without a new striker , I predict we will finish 6th to 8th.

same ol sh1te · 09-08-2014 03:07PM

Predictions,

Top 4: Chelsea, Man City, Woolwich, Man Utd
FA Cup: Newcastle
League Cup: Swansea
Champions League: Real Madrid
Europa League: Spurs

I think we'll have a good season and go on to win the Europa. Lamella and Soldado yo get lots of goals in the PL and go on to finish 6th

6th wouldn't be so bad. Pochs 1st season and more new signings. I just want to see us improve defensively, press teams and pass much better.

Not very exciting though is it ?

I hope we do well under Poch, but it's quite sad that the best we can realistically do is 5th or 6th - we lack serious ambition as a club.

It's a little worrying that he seems to be more or less happy with the squad

same ol sh1te · 10-08-2014 05:51PM

Poch also said yesterday that our squad is too big, he wants to trim it to 25

Can't attract the top players to the lane. Hopefully they wont be a soft touch this season and avoid the couple of hammerings that they suffered last season.
Can't see them winning the Europa league as the teams that drop out of CL will be too strong.

Glebee · 10-08-2014 07:30PM

Full prediction list

League Champions: Spurs.
Fa cup : spurs
League cup : Spurs.
Champs league : Don't care
Europa : spurs

See easy. I win.

Final position. .. 8th or 9th.

Think we will see a similar season to 2 or 3 years ago. I.e. play lots of good attacking football, dominate games and possession and create tonnes of chances but lack a cutting edge. I expect we will pick up a couple of promising wins/draws against the big 5 and come undone against a few of the weaker teams too. A typical Spurs season really.

Doubt we will win any cups. We might be involved in the latter stages of all of them but ultimately end up with little to show for it.

Top goalscorer: Ade.. With about 12-14 EPL goal. 10 of which will come in 12 games and he'll do f**k all in the other 20 matches.

Standout player. Erickson again. Followed closely by Lloris (again).

Letdown player. Dawson if he plays more than 10 games. Paulinho unless there's a massive change in attitude. Not suited to Pocchy's style at all. Davies to be a letdown too. Slight improvement on Rose.

Break through/most improved. Can't see anyone coming through the ranks having a massive impact. Kane might grab a dozen goals in the cups if he is used. Other then that I'm hope Potch can utilise Capoue better than AVB did.

ziedth · 10-08-2014 09:16PM

1st Chelsea at a stroll Jose and some good signings it wouldn't surprise me if they won a number of cups
2nd Utd they'll surprise everyone this year.
3rd City they'll be off the pace by 9/12 points come May.
4th Arsenal again but might get pushed by Everton/us.
5th/6th coin flip between us and Everton.
7th Liverpool, they just had one of those years last year that it all went right and they caught a couple of teams in transition. Suarez simply won't be replaced and Gerrard I think after that slip and dodgy WC might begin a bit of a downward spiral.

CL: Real but maybe Chelsea
League Cup: Some mid table team (I include us in that)
Europa: Don't think we'll get to a semi. Always decent teams by the end.
Fa: United

Top scorer: RVP
Spurs top scorer: Soldado, simply because he can't be another Rebrov. All that talent doesn't just fly away

mushykeogh · 10-08-2014 09:34PM

4th.

2nd Row Donkey · 10-08-2014 10:15PM

A man of few words

positivenote · 10-08-2014 11:03PM

1st

optimist

Kiith · 11-08-2014 09:45AM

5th or 6th, but a good 10-15 points or so behind 4th. We'll have a good season overall, where we are solid for the most part, with one or two bad loses to the top 4 and a few games thrown away against lower teams.

So pretty much what we've come to expect over the last few years.

slegs · 11-08-2014 10:39AM

For me

1. Chelsea
2. Man City
3. Arsenal
4. Spurs
5. Man U
6. Liverpool

We will come close in EL too

Hammar · 11-08-2014 10:43AM

1. Chelsea
2. Man City
3. Arsenal
4. Man U
5. Liverpool
6. Spurs

I don't think there will be much between 4-6th.

DubPerryman · 11-08-2014 04:32PM

A lot of pessimism (or realism) around here these days.

To be honest, I think the Top 7 will be really tight and hard to call.

Chelsea, City, United, Arsenal, Liverool, Everton and us will all be in with a chance.

The only thing I can call is that Chelsea will win the title. Mourinho will have them hard to beat as usual, plus Fabregas will give them the extra bit of creativity in midfield that they lacked last season.

I think anyone, including us, will be anywhere from 2nd to 7th.

City are feeling the effects of FFFP. Arsenal have a poor defence, again. United have LVG but still have a poor defence. Liverpool haven't exactly replaced the 30 or so goals Suarez gave them last season. Everton haven't particularly strengthened.

While last season we had a good squad lacking motivation, consistency and confidence. If Poch can bring those three things to the table he will be the signing of the Summer. There's no reason at all why we can't firmly compete for a Top 4 finish!

Charliebull · 11-08-2014 08:57PM

Our best chance of CL is winning the Europa, after that what does it matter as long as we improve

irishmover · 11-08-2014 09:55PM

Everyone has us wrote off so for that reason I think top 3.

Lamela to score more than Suarez did last season and for Spurs to be called a one man team again.

slegs · 12-08-2014 03:21PM

It would be a sad world if you couldn't have a bit of old fashioned optimism now before a ball is even kicked.

Spurs used to do optimism better than any other group of fans but even that has been beaten out of us over the last 20 years!

I agree, we will buy a striker and another centre back and finish in the top four. I couldn't look forward to the season accepting that we wont finish in top four, even before a ball is kicked. I expect a lot of improvement from our squad after the disaster of last season, and input of Poch.

Ormus · 12-08-2014 05:32PM

I'd be happy enough if we finish top 6, play entertaining, attacking football, and don't roll over against the big teams. I reckon if we play football and don't give up, we'll be at least in with a chance of top 4, although I think there are 4 teams with a better chance.

I'd prefer us to either win the Europa or go out in the qualifying round.

KingdomYid · 12-08-2014 07:18PM

6th or 7th and hopefully some good attacking football without being the laughing stock of the Premier league again. That is all I want, no great expectations here.

Agree. Lets give this manager some proper time. Give him 18 months to try and build the team he wants. 6th and a cup final hopefully and some good football, and please no hidings like citeh and liverpool again :mad:

yiddo59 · 12-08-2014 08:59PM

Fighting for for 4/5/6 with the goons and Liverpool. (City, Chelsea and Manu being the top3).
Hopefully we'll show a bit of fight and be hard to beat. Oh and a trophy wouldn;t go amiss either! No pressure Poch

jobeenfitz · 12-08-2014 09:02PM

I believe we will sign a striker in this window, although nothing is for sure. If we dont sign a striker who is going to be Poch's mumber one striker?

New season prediction !!!
