Utd would actually be way more competitive in the league than what certain fan bases predict

City to actually make the CL final and comically lose in it anyway

Betis to make top 4 in Spain

Jjuve to actually "struggle" to win Serie A

Me actually watching more Ligue 1

Pool to have a great start but have an incredible dive in form. Meanwhile, Tottenham to have early struggles but somehow manage to pick it up after January

Madrid to have no player cross over 20 goals for the season in La Liga

Mole to actually try to watch matches consistently before Newcastle's relegation sends him right back to Basketball

Barcelona to not even pass the R16

* Lacazette and Auba to both finish with 20+ goals in the PL but neither of them ending up as top goal scorer

* Manchester City to win the Champions League title

* Alan Pardew to make his return to the PL

* PSG failing yet again in their highest goal this season to win the CL leading to both Neymar and Mbappe leaving the club

* Hazard to fall out with Chelsea FC this season leading to force a move in January, and if that doesn't happen definitely packing his bag next summer, only to still not realise that he isn't even half as good as he think he is

* Sadio Mane to win PL Player of the Year

Benzema had 5 goals last season and you’re saying he’s not gonna score 15?

Not exactly bold hmm

by Firenze Fri Aug 03, 2018 10:44 pm

He's the main man now. CR7 leaving meant that Perez unlocked his chastity belt. He's expected to hit 30 goals minimum IMO.

After 1 match in the season and expert scouting on my part, feel that Weah boy is gonna be the new hype up lad.

Other mentions: Sessegnon, Ruben Neves and Rodri of Atletico.

by Firenze Mon Aug 13, 2018 5:02 pm

still persisting with that numpty lol

he'll be lucky to reach the career heights of sturaro tbh

by rincon Mon Aug 13, 2018 5:11 pm

Lautaro Martinez for sure

Not me being an ass but every time I view him, he doesn't do anything noteworthy. No idea what the JJ council see in him at all.

Some fanbases just hype the F out of any and every youth that comes to them.

literally..you can rattle off half a dozen from Juventus especially the last 4-5 seasons alone

Coman? Keane? Rugani? Lemina? Bentacur and more

PL fanbases generally seem a lot less prone to exaggeration with their youth..probably because we never give them a chance to play meaningful minutes and we know that Laughing

Madrid fanbase seem to do the same too tbh, and I'm not talking about GL strictly..in general

I'm not entirely sure why it happens, but eh
