Well, as I started one for the Championship, it seems now is the time for the Premier League 2014/15 thread to begin!

We have all our teams, with Leicester, Burnley and QPR replacing Cardiff, Fulham and Norwich. Can City retain, can United break into the top four, how will Liverpool cope with Champions League football. All this and more can be discussed as we see how the transfers, the rumours, the World Cup and everything else make an impact on the Premier League before it all kicks off?

I'll open it up...the Telegraph, Sky Sports and others report Pochettino is top of Spurs' shortlist and could be unveiled in the next week. Thoughts? Sounds the perfect fit to me. Some suggesting he'll bring Rodriguez with him, although that sounds like immediate clutching to me.

United to win the league at a canter.

Cleverly to score 20 from open play.

Fellaini to make an incisive pass.

Ah well I can dream.

Can't help thinking pochettino would be better off continuing what he's done at Southampton and waiting for a better opportunity. He'll be expected to get top 4 at spurs and that really isn't realistic.

I suppose he would be considering earlier in the year when his boardroom ally left and he seriously contemplated his future. Possibly fears that his side will be decimated this summer too.

We could be relegated or achieve a top 7 or 8. I await in anticipation to what will unfold for Newcastle.

Title between City & Chelsea. Liverpool to drop, under the expectation of repeating this years form & the pressure of competing in Europe. Arsenal & United to grab top 4. Burnley for sure will be relegated.

Burnley will stay up I think, good young manager, squad needs a little more depth but that'll happen, fancy them to stay up the most of all the promoted sides tbh

Citeh to win the title
Liverpool to drop from the top four
Utd to finish 4th
QPR, Leicester, Hull to get relegated

I think QPR will be fine, if they continue to throw money at it.

Burnley is interesting. Think if they can add a key center back, key center mid.

Bit worried for Southampton. Could lose a lot of pieces, hope they have a plan in place if they do.

Looking forward to seeing what van Gaal does with United, expecting a lot of young players to get a chance. Probably won't challenge for the title, but should lay a foundation to get back to the top for a long time.

I reckon Arsenal will start well before falling off as they always do but it won't be there fault because they're the only team who can't cope with injuries.

United to be reinvigorated and challenge for the title falling just short and finishing third behind Chelsea and City, Liverpool to fall away possibly coming 6th behind Tottenham.

I fear for Southampton, especially if Pochettino leaves and takes Rodriguez with him. Also the (potential) imminent departure of Lallanna and Shaw will be a huge issue for them to overcome.

I think this season could have the best title race with the current top four and Man Utd all competiting. Chelsea will win it.

I reckon QPR and Leicester will be safe. Hull, Palace(unfortunately) and Burnley will go down.

Expecting United to be better this season, but I don't think we'll win the title, most likely City will win it.

I also want to see how Liverpool do this year, just have a feeling that they overachieved and will drop out of the top 4 especially if Suarez leaves.

City or Chelsea, likely City.

Villa or West Brom will flirt again, as will we, with the relegation trap. But I'll go Hull, Burnley, Leicester, whilst praying its QPR

So his solution will be to go to Spurs

This will unfold badly for Pochettino long term. You kinda feel he's trying run, before he can walk, in terms of EPL management. Maybe a harsh assessment but he's not achieved massive amounts as of yet at Southampton, should of stayed, banked £50m from Lallana & Shaw & built his own side. Jumping to Spurs will be tough, unrealistic top 4 goal & then there's Levy as your boss. Can see Poch struggling to transform Spurs into anything superior & he'll end up like the rest who have fallen before him. Reputation down the drain, back to Spain.

I think he's a bit over rated anyway, by and large it's Adkins team, the players he bought or gave a chance too; Osvaldo was a poor signing while Wanyama did ok without being great. Then factor in that the team he inherited is going to get decimated then it seems like the right time to jump ship for a bit of extra dough.

It seems to me like the best time. How many teams of Southampton's ilk survive a culling like is on the cards?

I actually have been impressed by him, and I dont like Southampton so that doesnt come easy. Think he took all that Adkins did and then showed himself to be a better manager, with some similarities to what McLaren has done with Derby since taking over from Clough

It's a win win situation for Pochettino if he gets the Spurs job.

He'll sign a three or four year contract with Spurs. If he succeeds they'll extend his contract and give him a raise. If he fails they'll fire him and give him a pay off that'll be in the millions. What did Moyes get? Four million pounds for 10 months of failure?

It won't ruin Pochettino's chances of getting a another job if he's fired. Managers go from job to job these days, it's like musical chairs.

Arsenal to win it, with Utd pushing for the top four. Arsenal messed up against their main rivals last season. If they can address their defensive problems, then they have the quality up top to win it.

What? Defensively, they are pretty sound. It's more of a weaker core, especially in midfield against the top teams & Wenger stubbornness to change his teams style in those games, which is required. They also don't have he quality up top whatsoever, to win the title.

They have more than enough imo. It's not all about the CF's scoring. Walcott will return, add that to a midfield who love to get forward then goals will come. Injuries may set them back?

Don't injuries always hold Arsenal back?

They got destroyed, not just beaten, by their title rivals last season, I can't see a mass improvement happening to change that. 4th once again, perhaps?

The race for the top four will be the most competitive it's ever been, with seven teams in the mix.

I can see the gunners improving on 4th but can't see them yet winning the title as I think Chelsea, City, and United will be better. I think Liverpool will come back to earth. That being said it is early to predict anything. If Arsenal actually have a good transfer window for once we can be in the mix.

People seems to forget that Rodgers had Liverpool playing some good football at the end of the 12/13 season and the 13/14 season was simply a continuation of that. Surprised some people think this is a one season fluke when the evidence has been there for a while.

I do see next season being harder by virtue of most teams adopting a much more defensive formation against us with a view to limiting the number of goals they concede and/or looking to break on the counter. Don't see and really big wins for LFC next season but I'll be quite happy with a bunch of 1-0 and 2-0 wins as long as the defence is sorted. Mignolet needs to Marshall his back four a lot better and we need a midfield attack dog and another 15-20 goal striker.

Would love us to go one further along with a couple of decent cup runs and an excellent showing in the CL. Hoping the likes of Jordan Ibe get a bit of a push too

Well if we (Newcastle) continue on as we did in the 2nd half of this season, then we'll be in serious trouble.

We have some very good players, but we have some poor ones aswell. And is Pardew the right man and good enough.

Genier is apparently in talks, which would be a good signing but he needs help. He cant do it all on his own. Cabella being linked would be another good signing.

Hopefully a few of our youngsters will get a few games this season like recent England u17 Euro Champs winner Alan Armstrong - a seriously talented young striker.

Not entirely sure why anyone would give a manager a five year deal considering the average lifespan these days, but seems like a decent fit. Big couple of months coming up for Southampton.

I think he has made the wrong decision tbh. But its up to him to prove me and others wrong. But i think Tottenham need to get right behind him, but knowing Levy he will probably be sacked by the time we all get under way in August.

Would Pochettino go to Spurs unless he was guaranteed a few years on his contract? I doubt it.

Five years is longer than I expected though. I figured they'd offer him three or four years. He's guaranteed a decent sized pay off in the millions if he's fired before the contract expires.

Levy just loves throwing his money down the drain. Don't blame Pochettino for jumping ship now after agreeing a five-year deal, his wife's probably already spent the compensation money.

The problem with Spurs is Levy and not the managers. I am not a huge fan of AVB and I think Sherwood wasn't ready for the big leagues either. Yet, since Levy has taken over Spurs they have changed mangers over and over again. Spurs management has unrealistic expectations of where they are in the pecking order. I am not just saying this because I am an Arsenal fan and occassionally like to have a go at them. The teams that consistently finish above them are bigger clubs with more money and better teams. They are not a champions league side. Yes they should try to improve their lot and break into the mix with Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, City, and where United have been the last few years. But they can't fire managers every 18 months because said manager doesn't bring them Champion's league football. You have played in that tournament once, it isn't your birthright and a manager for Spurs shouldn't be fired because he can't get there. If you want to ever pull an Atletico and usurp the big boys you have to build from within and find a good manager who will be there for the long haul and bring stability. You aren't going to get there by outspending City or Chelsea or even Arsenal.

MotD needs a major revamp. Too old and cliche'd.

Lineker can stay. Lawrenson needs taking out back and putting out of his misery. Shearer is the most boring man on TV. Savage is just a prat.

Seems to be a dearth of good pundits these days. Keanes the only one I'd actually enjoy listening to, the rest just spout the same tired cliches and uninspired analysis.

I like Lawro, a lot. Guy isn't bothered by the fact he's on TV, he'll just tell crap jokes when they spring up in his head, and if you listen I actually think hes generally spot on with all his analysis.

Savage is genuinely very good on 606, I didn't want to like him but he is good. He doesnt call everything right but he has strong opinions and does back them up.

The problem with MOTD isnt that they are bad analysts, its the fact they get about a minute to discuss all the details of a match.

I like Roy Keane, but i'm not sure how good an actual pundit he is, hes just entertaining to watch.

Lineker, Keane, maybe Neville. Is it that hard to find ex pros with charisma?

Phil Neville isn't doing the commentary for BBC during the Italy game is he? Was that a joke or serious? Just can`t imagine him commentating at all.

I want to see Steve McLaren and Joey Barton on commentary at the World Cup, both attempting accents of the countries that are playing that corresponding game.

I think Lineker needs to go asap.
Almost as boring as Shearer.
His jokes are just not funny.

Somebody like Matt Holland off the top of my head would be better.
He's decent on drive.

Murat Yakin would be a good appointment for Southampton, makes sense with the owner too.

Id be delighted if i was Southampton if actually could get him, Would very much soften the blow of losing Pochettino.
