Football aka Soccer 2013/2014 Season

Real Madrid crushing the old record buying Bale, Arsenal buying Özil. And a whole bunch of other big buy's and sales. Who do you think will win the biggest leagues. Surprising everyone has ignored this so far

Lol, watch Ronaldo whine about Bale scoring more goals than him.

If Torres reverts to his Liverpool days, then Chelsea will win CL. Have zero faith in barca. Hate, hate, HATE Bayern Munich.

TLR, we got Ozil!!!!!!StaticKornSlipX

Benfica dominated Chelsea in that Europa League Final, they just Portuguese'd their way out of winning. But I like Bayern Munich to win again.GamerForca

I like that one team with the guy that falls down and pretends he broke both of his ankles and then jumps up like nothing happened after the other team gets carded.DaBrainz

Chelsea is the favorite for sure. F*** em tho. City? Nah. 

Chelsea!! About to win the league this year Eto'o and Torres up top is good enough.

As for CL that's tough to say too much time from now and the end of the group stages.

Can't wait for the El Classico and El Cashico this year

and I can't believe Arsenal got Ozil -_-

[QUOTE="Put_in_Kitna"]

[QUOTE="The_Last_Ride"] They have Mourinho and they have a solid squad. I don't know if United can take the title again. I think it's between Chelsea or City this yearThe_Last_Ride

Chelsea is the favorite for sure. F*** em tho. City? Nah. 

Then I guess the hell with you friend.

[QUOTE="Put_in_Kitna"]

[QUOTE="The_Last_Ride"] I hope Arsenal will win something, but i am still unsure how they will go this season. I still think they won't do better than 4th, maybe third. City has got a strong squad, i think they will do well. As long as United doesn't win i am happy, i would be more happy if Arsenal could win something :)The_Last_Ride

Then I guess the hell with you friend. 

I am a United fan man, just messing with you.

He stunk it up yeah. Fellaini good pick up, but needs more. We will see January.

[QUOTE="The_Last_Ride"] oh ok:P. I think Moyes made some mistakes this transfer window thoughThe_Last_Ride

He stunk it up yeah. Fellaini good pick up, but needs more. We will see January. 

I think they need to start moving on from the soon to be retired (Giggs,Ferdinand) and buy wingers (Valencia,Nani and Young all poor atm,Zaha unproven)

Man United would be a lot better right now IMO if they also ditched Rooney and played a 4-3-3 of:

-----------------------De Gea--------------------

Jones-----Ferdinand/Evans-----Vidic-------Evra

-------------Fellaini---------Carrick/Cleverly----

----------------------Kagawa---------------------

Nani----------------Van Persie--------------Zaha

lol Mexico.

That is all.

Well I think:

• Overconfidence
• they can't score
• horrible coaching decisions
• lack of leadership

It's so bad that even Panama is ahead of them (which is awesome b/c they are somehow still alive). Even if Mexico gets 4th place, with the way they are playing I wouldn't be surprised if New Zealand beats them.

The_Last_Ride

I think Bale will crumble under the pressure at Real Madrid, and Ozil was certainly a very good buy for Arsenal! As far as the leagues are concerned, I'd say that:

Man Utd will win the PL, but it will be closer than last year, with City and (hopefully) Chelsea in the mix until near the end. Arsenal will finsh 4th comfortably, Liverpool 5th and Spurs may miss out on Europe altogether if theres shocks in the FA and League cups! Hull, Palace and Sunderland to go down. Relegation probably wont even be close.

Real Madrid will win La liga, as Barca are an aging team now, they need a centre back and will be found out in the bigger games this season. Atletico will be closer to the big 2 than most people think, and Sociedad will probably finish 4th again ahead of Valencia. Malaga could be shock candidates for relegation.

Bayern to win the German league again, but Dortmund will be more of a threat as they wont perform as well in CL this season.

Juventus to walk Serie A, PSG to win the French league by at least 12 points and Benfica to win the Portugese league.

Bayern or Man Utd to win the CL, Madrid to fall at the semis again, City to finally get out of the group alive and Barcelona to go out at the quarters.

They will beat New Zealand. I agree on all your points, but you left out the fact that they stink. 

Guess I'll add my predictions to this thread:

EPL - Same top 4, in exactly the same order as last season. City and Chelsea havent strengthened well enough to bridge the gap between themselves and United. All 3 promoted clubs to go straight back down, but Newcastle and Swansea to be surprise strugglers too. Newcastle havent invested enough and have quite a thin squad, while Swansea will struggle to balance PL and Europa well enough.

La Liga - A close battle this season at the top but I'd say Barca will edge it by a couple of points. Atletico will be comfortably 3rd, and I think Valencia will get 4th, edging out surprise contenders Villarreal. Almeria and Rayo will be bottom 2 but the 3rd relegation spot is very tough to call. I think Malaga, Sevila and Sociedad will all be shock strugglers, Malaga in particular look a pale shadow of the team that reached the CL quarter finals last season.

Bundesliga - Bayern and Dortmund top 2 easily, with Bayern edging the title. Schalke to finish 3rd, with Wolfsburg sneaking 4th spot ahead of Leverkusen. The 2 promoted clubs to go straight back down, and Hoffenheim to survive the relegation play-off for the 2nd successive season. Werder Bremen may be surprise strugglers.

Italy - Juventus, easily. With AC Milan and Napoli making up the top 3 again. Dont know enough about the rest of the league to say anything.

France - PSG to beat Monaco in a close fought battle at the top, with the money then running out for both clubs the following season.

CL - Bayern to be the first team to retain the trophy. Juventus, City and Dortmund to shockingly drop into Europa League, no English team to make it past the quarter-finals, Barca to be found out in the later stages again.

Looking forward to Ozil's debut on Saturday.
