Alright, so this past weekend we saw the big 4 go at it. Some of the talking heads were saying that the games weren't that exciting to watch, I beg to differ. Albeit, there weren't many goals, the fact that one goal distanced Man U and Arsenal from the rest was enough to keep me on the edge of my seat. I think I scared my kids with how animated I got when they disallowed both Adebayor's and Van Persie's goals. One goal wins can be quite exciting, especially when your team needs the win to stay on top. With that being said, who do I think will be in the top 4 by seasons end?
1. Arsenal-They'll find there form again and make a valiant run in the Champions league, though I doubt they could beat Inter right now. (Inter is my reluctant pick to win the CL)
2. Manchester United- With Tevez and Rooney playing the way they do I doubt the point difference between 1 & 2 is more than a point. The league may be settled on goal difference, who knows. It's been that kind of year so far.
3.Chelsea- Drogba will return to the line-up and go on a goal scoring fest. Maybe. One thing for sure is that with him on the pitch, they are a much better team. They'll eek past the #4 team by 3 points or less.
4.Here it is, the darkhorse to finish ahead of top 4 member Liverpool.
Drumroll please............................................Everton.
Yeah, that's right I said it. Pompey will lose most of their players to the Africa Cup, essentially taking them out of the race. Blackburn will run out of gas before Feb. Man City, while on form for a majority of the season, will start to falter by April. They've already shown a kink in the armor. They need Elano.
Who does that leave? Everton. Liverpool will be in fifth on the same # of pts. as Everton but behind on the tie breaker. I'm going out on a limb with my pick, but barring injury I think Everton could pull it off.
