Utd will win the league.

[–]redditisfun_Dave 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

Seconded. No one expects us to get anywhere near but we'll pull a Leicester. Well, it won't be quite as unexpected but who cares.

[–]BloodyMess111 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm just sick of hearing "it'll take years" when fucking Leicester City have just won the league by 10 points.

[–]BHButcherThe Ginger Prince 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

no one expects us to get anywhere near

Actually our odds are pretty good since Mourinho was announced manager. We're in with quite the chance

[–]redditisfun_Dave -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Haha I saw that but was just alluring to the anti-united circle jerk that all ABU's have.

[–]nikhilbhideManchester United 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We'll not pull a Leicester. I certainly hope not! We must pull a United. In typical style. Announce to the league that we are back!!

[–]danc906De Gea 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

Ibra scores 4 away at City and burns the Etihad to the ground.

[–]noahcrosleyJanuzaj 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Now, this is something I can get behind.

[–]TyperSniperKeane 18ポイント19ポイント  (2子コメント)

Schneiderlin will thrive under Jose in a Matic-esque enforcer role and be up there for our POTS.

[–]MylesVE 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

I can picture him growing a beard and doing deep immersion therapy with nothing but Roy Keane spoken audio in his headphones and posters in his home. Speaks with a cobh cork accent by the end of the season.

[–]TyperSniperKeane 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I would expect and want nothing less.

[–]opdjasinJosé Mourinho 29ポイント30ポイント  (2子コメント)

Guardiola will struggle. Klopp will stay average next season.

[–]BHButcherThe Ginger Prince 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'm not sure which I'd prefer

[–]mu_37 22ポイント23ポイント  (1子コメント)

Mata is staying...

[–]jphwNot that James Wilson 21ポイント22ポイント  (2子コメント)

We will win the Europa League and the League Cup.

[–]digitagCarrick 47ポイント48ポイント  (0子コメント)

I don't think the 'bold' bit was a formatting request mate

[–]TheJoshider10De Gea 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I really fucking hope we take the Europa League seriously. The performances we've put in against the likes of Bilbao and Liverpool make me doubt the players have, because you don't play that shit if you truly care.

[–]PatrickArchangel 6ポイント7ポイント  (3子コメント)

We are doing The Double. EPL and FA Cup.

[–]4lienShaw 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

If we won PL, EL, and FA would that count as winning the treble?

[–]GOLDSPECTRE94Paul Scholes 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Technically yes.

[–]apparex1234Dave Saves 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

It would be better than the fake treble Liverpool won

[–]juanderwallBlind 18ポイント19ポイント  (1子コメント)

Zlatan's not going to live up to the hype.

[–]manutd875 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Was just thinking this the other day, he has been playing on the best team in the French league for the past few seasons. Hopefully he can do well in the EPL.

[–]DP112Herrera 12ポイント13ポイント  (1子コメント)

We'll come 2nd, won't take Europa seriously, Ibra will score about 10, 15 goals but Rashford will be our top scorer.

Oh and Phil Jones will score a screamer from our own box, then get injured celebrating and rule himself out for two years

[–]4lienShaw 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

OP asked for bold predictions, not obvious ones

[–]macAaronEGiggs 12ポイント13ポイント  (3子コメント)

City won't make the top 4. Pep will get fired within two and a half years.

[–]apparex1234Dave Saves 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

The current City squad is not at all good enough to play the way Pep likes to play. He either has to make wholesale changes to the team or change his tactics. Making wholesale changes to a squad is not easy.

[–]macAaronEGiggs 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'm not convinced Pep can grow a squad either. So far, he's had tailor-made squads in top heavy leagues to work with. Not to mention he was working in a massive talent pool being in the home nation of the World Cup champions for most of his career.

[–]apparex1234Dave Saves 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

He can definitely build his squad over time. He is undoubtedly a world class manager.

I also think he will want his City team to be more like his Barca team. At Bayern, the fans were really frustrated with his tactics in the first season and he was forced to be more direct later on. It's part of the reason why he didn't continue at Bayern. At City he won't have such trouble because the club hasn't stood for any particular style of football in their history.

That's where I think he will have to bite the bullet and compromise on things. He will not find a Busquets like midfielder anywhere else. He is not going to find the perfect trio of Xavi, Iniesta and Biscuits again.

[–]selotipkusutMartial 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

Rashford & Tony to score >40 goals in total.

Less bold prediction: Rashford, Tony and Memphis to score >40 goals in total. Oh and plus 20 goals from Ibra.

[–]macAaronEGiggs 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Tony and Tony will get 40 goals total.

[–]ttjoelkerMemphis 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

Memphis scores from a freekick

[–]iDroidManiacScholes -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Woahh, thread is dead now.

[–]Z1964De Gea 12ポイント13ポイント  (1子コメント)

Fosu mensah will win player of the year.

[–]DevilishRogueGiggs 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

And Andrea Pereia Young Player of the Year.

[–]IchDienMartial 8ポイント9ポイント  (3子コメント)

We'll win the CL.

[–]silkie_blondoKing Dave 9ポイント10ポイント  (1子コメント)

We win back to back FA Cups and we will win the league.

Martial has 25+ goals in all comps

Darmian becomes the leagues best RB

[–]hyperion86Darmian 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Seconded. Would love to see Darmian become a top player.

[–]wet4wet4sergioMartial 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

We win the league on the last day because of a better GD than Leicester.

Liverpool fail to make top 10 this season while Arsenal fail to make top 4.

[–]rehanTCh 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

Zlatan will be top scorer in the league

[–]ReflectingGodMata 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Position Team
1 Arsenal
2 United
3 City
4 Chelsea
5 Spurs
6 Liverpool

Arsenal will sign Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Chelsea will sign Radja Nainggolan and Liverpool will end up signing Mario Götze

Harry Kane will be top scorer, Petr Čech will win the golden glove, Mesut Özil for most assists, Alexis Sánchez will win POTY, Anthony Martial will win YPOTY

Leicester to finish third in group stage and go to quarter finals of Europa, Arsenal QF of CL, Spurs R16, City QF of CL, United win Europa League! Southampton Europa R16, West Ham Europa QF and lol at Liverpool

[–]rb11_1994Giggs 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Memphis will bounce back with a player of the season calibre season, narrowly missing out to Martial, who scores 20+ in the league to both break De Gea's 3 year streak and lead United to the title.

[–]shihvvbSchneiderlin 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

Lingard will score 10> goals

[–]digitagCarrick 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Lingard will start <10 games

[–]Kiddcohen39Ander Herrera 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ibrahimovic comes and remains mostly healthy and Rashford still ends the season with more goals in all competitions than him.

[–]marcodjHerrera 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

EL will be mostly not be taken seriously (for youth and rotation)

We will finish 2nd or 3rd

We will retain FA CUP

There will be a big name signing (besides Ibra)

[–]DevilishRogueGiggs 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

We'll spend less in the transfer window than Arsenal.

[–]daniam1Shaw 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

We'll have another mediocre season.

[–]MylesVE 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

  • We win the Europa League

  • Memphis leads the league in assists the first half of the season. Scores the most goals in the league from January on.

  • We have a perfect record against Liverpool, City, and Arsenal next season.

[–]abhinavyashkarpereira 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Rooney will score more than 20 in all competitions.

[–]digitagCarrick 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Rashford will have a comparatively disappointing season

[–]Allard1994Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend. 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Memphis will find form

[–]tie_dye_sloth 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Martial will be a Ballon D'or contender

Ibra pl top scorer, martial player of the year

[–]tinste 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We sweep City, Liverpool, Arsenal and get 4 of 6 points from Chelsea.

[–]cruddyhoneybadger 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Win the community shield

United to finish second

Eliminated from UEL in the semis

Eliminated from the FA cup in the quarters from penalties after a second leg replay

Win the league cup

80+ goals scored during the 2016/2017 season

[–]House_Of_LannisterAnd who are you...? 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

A distinctive contrast from last season - Most goals scored in a season + least goals conceded ever beating Chelseas records.

Pep to have a meltdown and face the crisis of his life.

Title race between Klopp and Mou.

Leicester to be relegated.

Southampton say bye to Koeman - but Southampton finish in the top 4.

[–]Z1964De Gea 0ポイント1ポイント  (4子コメント)

We have a 9 goal thriller which concludes to Rashford scoring a late late winner.

[–]apparex1234Dave Saves 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

9 goal thrillers impossible under Mourinho.

[–]Pigeon_AssholeGerrard = 0 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

How does a late winner work in an 8 goal thriller lol?

[–]OnlyLiveOnceYOLOGGMU 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Actually it can happen. Imagine we lose 0-1 in the first leg of europa semis and win it 5-3 in reverse leg.

Edit: Initially the ^ comment was saying we will win a 8 goal thriller.

[–]mattyrob88Herrera 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Tied 4-4 going into extra time. Rashford bags the winner before penalties?

[–]boredom1201 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Herrera shines as our best midfielder

[–]Dakota0524Fellaini is Love. 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

  1. Memphis comes back from his shite season and nets at least 12, 1/4 of those from set pieces.

  2. United finishes either first or second.

  3. Liverpool again finished outside of Champions League, Klopp and co. labels it as "progress."

  4. Arsenal

  5. Leicester makes it to the CL Quarterfinals, gets knocked out, and finishes the season outside of CL, but qualifies for Europa.

[–]itsandercontrolSpecial 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

We won't win anything and we will finish around 4th. I'd love to be proven wrong though.

[–]goodguy1994it's Rooneyyy, it's inevitable. some things are meant to be 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's anything but bold

[–]themad95Juan "Hugs" Mata 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Martial will be one of the Ballon D'or top 3 nominees.

[–]goodguy1994it's Rooneyyy, it's inevitable. some things are meant to be 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

This should be posted again later in the summer. But right now, a bold prediction would be Memphis to win the poty and ypoty

[–]ritwikjsSmalling -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

with all the talk about marcus and ibra, i forsee martial becoming an absolute stone cold killer, stunning everyone with a remarkable goal haul

[–]pearlz176The Ginger Prince -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

We'll retain the FA Cup and reach the finals of the Europa League.

[–]mapguyAs Tony Martial scores again -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Mou and Arsene will have another sideline scuffle.

[–]SniiskuuSchweinsteiger -1ポイント0ポイント  (1子コメント)

Since Phil Jones is on topic today

Phil Jones to become top assisting in the league from corners alone

[–]FrenchMancMartial 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

those days are over brother.

[–]Marchall712van Persie -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

We will sign an unknown keeper from South Africa on deadline day for 50,000,000£

[–]spoofexKing Cantona -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

We'll win the league by 7 points. Martial will have 16 goals in all comps, but also 20 assists, mostly to Ibrahimovic or Rashford depending on if Ibra signs.

Klopp won't finish top 4, as Arsenal will push them out as will Spurs. Chelsea will be 6th, City 2nd.

We'll win the Europa League, beating Sevilla, Dortmund or CSKA in the final.

[–]maaahirScholes -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Depay will have a breakout season and get 25 goals/assists combined.

[–]nelsonandthemandelas -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

In the Manchester Derby at the Etihad we will trail 2-1 until the 87th minute, until Joe Hart slices a bad clearance in a crowded box, hitting Vincent Kompany in the back of his head, which deflects the ball into an open net. Five minutes later, in the last minute of extra time, Martial will skin, Otamendi with a lovely nutmeg, bombing forward, delivering a low cross into the box. Rashford will do a trademark dummy step-over, leaving it for Zlatan who will rabona it into the top corner, sending the United fans into scenes, with Jose Mourinho running down the touchline, grabbing the United badge while shushing the plastics at the Emptyhad with his index finger.

[–]An0therkShaw -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

bit premature for this thread no? I'd rather wait until we make some signings and watch the preseason before we all make the predictions.
