And it is indeed prediction time on Monday Night Football. But before we hear from Gary and Jamie on their picks, we're actually going to take you to what the fans think is likely for them this season. So remember, these are fans voting on their own clubs, and we've taken, as an average, where they see their finishing position. And only Arsenal fans think they will win the league with Manchester City in second place. Liverpool, Man United, and Chelsea fans all think their team is likely to finish third with Villa fifth. Spurs fans feeling bullish. I should say that this was before the weekend that people were voting. So Spurs is sixth. 81% think that. Brentford to build on last season with a seventh place finish.
Forrest climbing up to eighth. Bournemouth and Everton ninth. And Leeds into the top half in tenth. So what about the bottom? Well, the good news is that no one's getting relegated this season. But that was the same as last year. Nobody thought they were going down last year either. And unfortunately three did. So uh whole fans think they all finish seventeenth. Comentree and Ipswich both have themselves at sixteenth with Sunderland, Newcastle, Brighton, Fulham and Crystal Palace making up that bottom half. I'm surprised by Brighton actually. I thought Brighton fans might be a bit more optimistic than that. But but um Sunderland and Newcastle tied in eleventh, we will see. They'll be uh fighting for position all year, no doubt.
What do fans predict for the Premier League table this season?
So Arsenal to be champions, say the Arsenal fans, what do Jamie and Gary think? And we didn't make them vote before the weekend. We've let them watch all the football across the weekend to see if anything would change. Mm. So let's start with the champions. Jamie, who are you going for?
Yeah, I mean a few weeks ago I thought City might have a a chance, maybe, uh because I thought Arsenal might be thinking a lot about the Champions League and City would be desperate to get that uh trophy back, but it was all around Roger. I think if Roger stayed I could maybe make a case for them, but without Rodgers I just can't say. Gary?
A hundred percent Arsenal. I I I know when we say this, Arsenal fans think that we're somehow sort of applying pressure to them, but they're way excellent. They're way out in front. They really are right now. And the squad that they've sort of assembled, the signings of Conzer and Gimmeraish and Solis, and maybe one more coming in in the next week. I th what a squad they are. If they didn't get that one more, would you be hedging your bits a little bit? No, I think they're fine. I mean they've got still low loads of options in forward areas. I know that Jim makes a good point on Friday night about they haven't got the one with the Stardust, but if they get the one with the Stardust then they're just gonna be further ahead.
But I think with what they've got already now in defence and in midfield, with the sort of good good attackers that they've got of a really good standard, then they're fine. Alright, so who's finishing second, third, and fourth? Who's getting closest to Arsenal? We've got a little bit of variation. So Jamie's gone City to be second with Chelsea and Liverpool. Gary's gone Chelsea second with City and guess who? United. So first of all, Gary, you think Chelsea Chelsea are next best, why? Just purely because of the fact that they've got no no European football. Um and I think that if look at it's a bit if they keep Enzo and they can keep Enzo and Casado in midfield with that front three and they're only playing 45 games and they can play in the Carabao Cup the rest of the squad players, they're gonna amass an enormous amount of points based upon the fact that they're gonna have a more f more free weeks, not gonna have the injury pressure.
