Let’s give this a go, stuck mainly to the Prem ones as I know very little about the lower leagues.

Premier League

• Premier League winners: Man City

  • Liverpool,
  • Spurs,
  • Utd

• Premier League Top Scorer: Haaland
• Player of the Year: Haaland
• Young Player of the Year: Haaland
• Tottenham Player of the Year: Romero

• Best signing: Getting boring saying Haaland but the guy’s going to be an absolute beast for City.
• Worst signing: Nunez (purely based on expectation vs social media trolls making him look like the ‘Harry Maguire’ of strikers)
• Break out Player: Bissouma (hard to say as ‘breakout’ but believe he’ll jump up a level and now be rated as one of the best CDM in the league)

Outlandish prediction: The Premier League and World Cup clashing will cause chaos up and down Britain's school playgrounds. Some kid will attempt to swap a Bournemouth Lloyd Kelly for a Wales Ben Davies and then anarchy. No one really knows cross sticker book swap valuation. Hence, everyone's going to think they're being deceived ("How is an England Jordan Pickford worth more than an Everton Jordan Pickford?") and the whole swapping system will collapse.
