I've never been a bigger fan of the EPL, but I've always liked Tottenham and Fulham. I'm going with them this year again.

they're hypocrites! They always complain about chelski, yet they've signed loads of players in the last 3 years, many of whom have got little to no chance of playing & been moved on. It's sickening watching teams trying to buy their way into everything. The odd big money signing, fair enough, but they make way too many. Pompey are the same now gaydamak is in charge.

Tottenham looks like a very dull team to me.

Chelsea until Mourinho, Ricardo Carvalho and Paulo Ferreira all leave, then Arsenal like always before. :)

A NORTH AMERICAN MATCH SUMMARY OF THE CLASSIC LIVERPOOL VS NEWCASTLE 4-3 MATCH

A four-three powerplay from Team LFC saw Newcastle bested and the Liverbirds elevated by 3 points in the premier league stat table this week.
Stanley Collymore's 15 yard cross field-play upfielded for Robert Fowler to put through the scorebag on his head before many of the anfield red stars fans had finished their pre match chilli cheese fries.

David James's blanking left Newcastle facing a negative score-stat scenario and a possible close-out on the road.

It's a score levelage scenario!

Ferdinand , rostering for 'general' Rob Lee, performed big when offensive hitman Asprilla created a net-shot opportunity early in the first quarter.

Now it was the Newcastle defense performing hang-tough with hardman Ginola toughing out McManaman though a non-call with 12.14 on the game-clock which could have led to a card red ejection.

Ginola stayed on the field of play however and found net space to make it 1-2 and had the scouse star's fans choking on their hot dogs.

Field player Ginola now has 323 out-field minutes this semester, a raise of 71 on this semester at premier soccer '94.

McManaman then saw a number of long range field plays go amiss while Fowler strikage stats were not helped when he failed to find nettage 8 metres into the goal-strike area.

This awesome kick-fest stayed at 1-2 during the line out break time and so the second period started with with spunky team Liverpool facing a zip points scenario.

Early in the first quarter of the second period 'general' Rob Lee hit into the shot-zone, forcing David James to blank once more.

Veteran coachman Roy Evans then placed two cornermen in the net-box to negate Newcastle's cross field-play upfielded efforts.

It's a score levelage scenario again!

Star offensive lineman Robert Fowler finds his net form and snatches the equaliser in his sophomore semester and that will be another goal stoppage!

Soon however, Asprillia, whose face is the most-sported pin in tournament merchandising stat-history this semester, lofted a high field ball way over the goal keep zone leaving David James with no chance to defend the goal bag.

Redknapp, leader of the team LFC on converted set-plays, tried from range but did not improve on his negative score-stat scenario.

Liverpool were now facing a 2-3 reverse and team red's Razor Ruddock added to his rap sheet when he was sin-binned for stud-checking on net-shooter Asprilla. Boy that was a big defensive hit!

It's a score levelage scenario again!

Team LFC however found a power-strike from Collymore and, deep into injury stoppage zone Collymore finds the shot-zone once
more to give team LFC all 3 points.
