Time for my annual 'look like an idiot in 9 months' post.

Alli or Dier will suffer a career-damaging (Sandro-style) injury.

Janssen will become a fan favourite, and will be pushing for a place ahead of Kane by the end of the season.

Guardiola will quit.

Eriksen will be the season's scapegoat.

Wanyama forces himself into a starting place.

We finish top of our CL group, but go out in the next round.

Dembele scores a spectacular winning goal against one of our big rivals.

1. Kane and Dele will score more PL goals than Zlatan and Rooney.
2. We will provide at least 1 England debutant. (Winks, for a bonus point)
3. We won't finish in the top 4...
4. ...however we will win a domestic Cup and get to the CL knock-out stage.
5. Either West Ham or Leicester will finish bottom half.

Brings out my inner Mystic Meg.
Whatever happened to her?


Dier appointed England captain.
Collapses in giggles at his first Press Conference and is sacked.
Alli appointed in his place.
Collapses in giggles at his first Press conference and is sacked.
Eriksen wages doubled and he is our player of the year. but he still leaves at the end of the Season.

Wont finish top 4 in yet another missed opportunity as Poch's standard end of aeason collapse hits yet again
Eriksen, Alli and Kane leave at the end of the season
Crash out of CL in the group stages
Get beaten by Arsenal in the Capital 1 Cup final
Crash out of FA cup in January
New stadium construction suffers a 6 month to 1 year delay. Chelsea pays through the nose for Wembley exclusivity in 18/19 so we're forced to move to Dons for the year.
Levy gets £120m for Kane and everyone at SC starts sucking his dick again after falling off the bandwaggon for a week.
Marcus Edwards wins young player of the year

*bring me all your hate, SC*

These are meant to be BOLD predictions, right?

1) West Ham relegated, and finish bottom, in their inaugural season in the Olympic Stadium.
2) Sir Alex (with G-Nev as his assistant) to take over as care-taker manager after Jose resigns after the January window. The Special One cites "not enough support from the board". He starts the next season as a pundit on BT Sport, and never manages again.
3) An England player to come out as gay. (My money will be on the soon to be monikered Not-So-Boring James Milner.)
4) We get drawn in a pig of CL group, and are out of Europe by December. This turns out to be a good thing as we become the form post-Christmas team, and pinch 4th place on the last day of the season from surprise package Stoke City.
5) Allí loses his place in the team and is sold for £12mil to Everton before the start of next season. By 2019 he is the World Footballer of the Year, an accolade he wins a total of three times.

1 - Harry Kane will score under 20 goals overall next season (no worries, he will get back to his best the season after)

2 - Winks will play over 30 games in all competitions, and establish himself ahead of Carroll and Mason, with one of the two, if not both, leaving in January.

3 - Arsenal to be the club to disappoint finishing outside the top 6

4 - Lamela to be nominated PFA player of the year and to score over 15 goals in the Premier League

5 - Tottenham will reach the Quarter finals of the Champions League. Getting knocked out by a last minute penalty against Real Madrid. Ronaldo, having done naff all all game, will take his shirt off and begin running round the pitch with his underwear on his head. (On the plus side this will be the last straw for Bale who sick of Ronaldo taking all the glory will rejoin us in the summer of 2017).

-One of either Kane, Eriksen or Alderweireld to miss at least half the season with injury (my money's on Kane).
-Spurs finish 6th (behind 2 London scummers, 2 Manc scummers + Liverpoo).
-Poch and Levy have a falling out, Poch leaves after this his 3rd full season with the us and goes to Athletico Madrid after Simeone gets some top job somewhere.
-We become boring again as teams figure us out and we can't score for a month.
-Something unforeseen and disastrous happens w/the new stadium, greatly delaying the opening.

Yeah I know- it must be fun being me, right?

1 - Hazard to win Player of the Year; who then signs with Real Madrid.
2 - Liverpool fly home in the last 10 games to finish in the Top 4 following a mid-season slump. Strurridge returns to form.
3 - Arsenal to finish outside of the Top 4; Wenger resigns.
4 - Leicester struggles and finishes in the Bottom 8. Vardy forces a transfer.
5 - Ranieri is approached for the vacant Arsenal position, with Thierry Henry as his assistant.

1. We'll have 2 points from 8 games but come back to finish 2nd.
2. Mourinho will resign in disgrace after a Tiger Woods type sex scandal and never manage again.
3. Costa will get sent off in every Spurs vs Chelsea games this season.
4. Jansson will score as many goals as Kane despite less appearances
5. I'll order a Spurs shirt from the OS, it'll cost more for postage to Australia than the shirt itself & when it arrives it'll be 2 sizes too small but I still wear it (saying "what the f**k you looking at" to whomever gives me funny looks)

1. Spurs will finish best of last year's top three.
2. Our "second" team will be greatly improved and we will make three quarter finals and a final.
3. United will collapse in a cloud of egos by Valentine's day.
4. Winks and Onomoah will make more appearances than Mason and Carroll.
5. Klopp will leave after missing European football again. They will not be able to replace him when the world realises that there is a curse on Anfield that makes everyone who spends time there stupid.

We will be 6pts clear of Arsenal with 1 game left and they will still catch us.
We will finish outside the top 4 but have a decent CL run.
George Kevin Nkoudou will eventually sign for us.:sleep:....and he will prove to be a huge success.
Poch will have a big decision to stay or leave next season.
Wanyama will be our new CM hero and main man,but Janssen won't.
