Matt LadsonTop four:1. Liverpool2. Man City3. Chelsea4. ArsenalRelegated: Burnley, Sunderland, BrentfordFirst manager to be sacked: Keith AndrewsSurprise team: I think Nottingham Forest could struggle with European football.Best new signing: Florian WirtzWorst new signing: Aaron Ramsdale / Anyone who signed for Chelsea thinking they’d actually play football (Delap and Hato especially)@mattladson Joanna DurkanTop four:1. Liverpool2. Man City3. Arsenal4 .ChelseaRelegated: Burnley, Sunderland and BrentfordFirst manager to be sacked: Daniel FarkeSurprise team: Leeds, if they manage to surviveBest new signing: Wirtz, but I could be convinced to change that to Isak…Worst new signing: Aaron Ramsdale@JoannaDurkan_ Sam MillneTop four:1.

ChelseaRelegated: Burnley, Sunderland, LeedsFirst manager to be sacked: Graham PotterSurprise team: FulhamBest new signing: WirtzWorst new signing: Kyle Walker@sam_millne Henry JacksonTop four:1. Liverpool2. Arsenal3. Man City4. ChelseaRelegated: Burnley, Sunderland, LeedsFirst manager to be sacked: Daniel FarkeSurprise team: Chelsea won’t be as great as their fans are expecting!Best new signing: WirtzWorst new signing: I’m not convinced Liam Delap is Chelsea level, but watch him score 30 goals now!@HenryJackson87 James NaltonTop four:1. Man City2. Liverpool3. Arsenal4. ChelseaRelegated: Burnley, Brentford, LeedsFirst manager to be sacked: Scott ParkerSurprise team: SunderlandBest new signing: Tijjani ReijndersWorst new signing: Jordan Henderson@JDNalton Peter BolsterTop four:1. Liverpool2. Arsenal3. Man City4. ChelseaRelegated: Burnley, Wolves, LeedsFirst manager to be sacked: Regis Le Bris or Graham PotterSurprise team: Newcastle. I think they can somehow recruit well in the final weeks of the window and hold onto key players.They might disrupt the top four and pick up another domestic trophy.Best new signing: There’s only one answer to this and it’s Florian Wirtz. But other than that, maybe Chelsea’s Joao Pedro.Worst new signing: Caoimhin Kelleher. Stylistically, he is a very good goalkeeper for a modern football team who like to play football out the back.For a team who is struggling, which I think Brentford will be, shots go through him far too often, not to mention he has a poor injury record.@peter_bolster Danny GallagherTop four:1. Liverpool2. Man City3. Chelsea4. ArsenalRelegated: Wolves, Burnley, SunderlandFirst manager to be sacked: Nuno Espirito SantoSurprise team: EvertonBest new signing: Florian WirtzWorst new signing: Noni Madueke@Danny7Gallagher Mo StewartTop four:1. Liverpool2. Arsenal3. Chelsea4. Man CityRelegated: Sunderland (just), Leeds, BurnleyFirst manager to be sacked: Daniel Farke or Graham PotterSurprise team: Bournemouth will still be good after selling their whole defenceBest new signing: Wirtz is the obvious answer, but for a left-field shout I like Simon Adingra at Sunderland.Worst new signing: Armando Broja will take this crown. Of the big-money signings, one of Man United’s three strikers will bomb. Maybe Bryn Mbeumo.@The_Mighty_Mojo
