(Leicester celebrating their 2015/2016 title win)




Noticed I hadn't post this when Mentor posted in last seasons thread. Surely Leicester can't win it again?!

I know everyone said the couldn't last season but no I don't think so. Especially after losing Kante to Chelsea. I'd personally have to say Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea to finish in that order.

My beloved Liverpool to win it time.

Not in my opinion. Klopp still needs another one/two seasons to make the team properly his. You're still too inconsistant.

Man UTD have done some pretty nice shopping. I don't agree with the transfer prices and how it all went down,but adding Ibrahimovic and Pogba to your team... that is a major boost!

I think the fact they didn't actually have to pay PSG to get Ibra also increased the willingness to pay over the top for Pogba...

Not to worry,I am quite sure RM will break this transfer record in next 2-3 years.

Higuan's transfer fee is most laughable given his age but then again they got money by selling pogba and by buying Higuan Juve have sealed serie a title once again.

Lester couldn't have asked for a easier group than this.

There is not really a group of death this time.I always hate to see RM get a easy group.even if somehow RM lose both games to Dortmund they will smash 4,5 or 6 goals past legia and sporting.Ronaldo becomes top scorers as usual.lol

Group E is probably the most competitive in my opinion in which Tottenham should finish top. Hope Atletico can do something and maybe upset Bayern again! :training2:

Ronaldo got his second UEFA best player in Europe. Not sure how he can be considered the best player in Europe, he is a player in decline. I even doubt he is the best player on his own team, I think Bale is already a bigger factor, but winning titles is what does it.

Antoine was never gonna win it,credit to his ridiculous shoes and being runners up twice.It was all between Bale and Cr7.Even I think Bale should have won it.

 

I have no idea how he even got on that list, let alone be a top 3 pick. Athletico did have a good year though and France made it to the finals of the Euro. Too much emphasis is given to players which play on the CL finals/International Finals. I mean if you was to ask 1000 footballing fans who their top 5 players were, you would struggle to find many which would put him on their top 5 lists. Then again, this is coming from a fan which barely watched the Spanish league, Athletico and France, but from what i did see from him, he is simply a versatile AM, a good player for sure, but not one of the best. I think he actually gained 1 point more than Bale in the scoring, which technically ranks him as being the 2nd best player in the world and that is ridiculous.

Jasper clissen joins Barcelona.from seeing the comments made by Dutch guys on FB it seems jasper is not very highly rated by his own country men.lol

Would be interesting to see If he will be 2nd choice to ter stegan or will follow the same arrangement that barvo and stegan had.
