Best promoted team: Watford
Best signing: Memphis
Worst signing: Falcao

Top Scorer: Aguero

Goal of the Season: Rooney

Don't see Chelsea winning, especially with Costa being injured throughout the season and Hazard not managing to carry the whole team by himself. Winning it back to back isn't easy and I think Chelsea will realise that.
Can see City winning it if Aguero remains injury free, not to mention Sterling having a big impact.
Having said that, it could go the either way if the same thing happens to Aguero. Chelsea will push them close/win.

Malevolent

Champions: Chelsea
Top Four (in order): Arsenal, United, City
Relegated: Bournemouth, Norwich, Newcastle
Surprise package: Stoke City. They're no longer your typical English hoof it side and I wouldn't be surprised to see them build on last season.
Best promoted team: Watford
Best signing: Petr Cech, I think he'll help Arsenal pick up a huge amount of points and they'll run Chelsea close.
Worst signing: Fabian Delph. Think he'll just sit on the bench really.
First manager to be sacked: Toss up between Tim Sherwood and McClaren
Top scorer: Sergio Aguero if he plays more than 2/3 of the season. Guy is a goal machine.

If Norwich ain't getting booted back down, surely they're better than Watford for you?

Sorry, I meant Norwich. The yellow teams are just merging in my head.

Champions: Chelsea
Top Four (in order): Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City
Relegated: Leicester, Watford, Bournemouth
Surprise package: Stoke City
Best promoted team: Bournemouth - think they'll get plaudits for their style etc but ultimately, not enough to stay up.
Best signing: Petr Cech. But mentions for James Milner, Darmian and Depay
Worst signing: Falcao
First manager to be sacked: Ranieri
Top scorer: Rooney (thinking of slight concerns of Aguero/Costa's potential injuries/niggles and don't think Kane will hit the same heights as last year)

Falcao looks a very good shout for worst signing based on tonight's exploits.

I don't know what Mourinho was thinking there I really don't.

It's madness. I can see that he was worth a punt last season, but he showed little to nothing while at United and he seems a shadow of his former self pre-injury. He's not explosive any more, and he's not particularly physical or imposing.

It's a curious move for Chelsea to make, especially when you'd figure that Remy probably deserves a chance. I'd have rather kept Bamford on the books as a Chelsea fan, rather than splash out needlessly on Falcao's wages.
