In all competitions yes.

West Ham have got Bellion on loan, I think we should just sell him to them. I think West Ham might stay up this season.

I think Drogba will get more than last season, because he should be used to the premiership.

There is talk about Spurs and the Champions League. As a Spurs fan do you think Spurs can break into one of the 4 spots available realistically?

We have strength in depth all the way through the team, and, with possible new additions of a LW, and a striker we will be fully equipped to mount a serious title challenge in a few years even.
We must keep our best players though, Mendes and Keane must stay in my opinion, and I don't particularly want Jenas at this point I have to say, certainly not at the expense of those two anyway.
Also, our main fault is not beating the smaller teams - in the six matches against the relegated teams, we only won two. Also, we lost to teams like Portsmouth, which we should be winning - and we beat them on the first day of the season, perhaps even more competititve than one in the middle of the season.
But if we keep our good players, and play to our potential, like we looked like doing last season, I think that Champions League spot could well be ours.

Carvalho is moaning - http://www.sportinglife.com/football...&TEAMHD=soccer
He's not that good I don't think. Ah well get used to it or go back to Porto.

Luckily I opted for del Horno and not Carvalho in my Dream Team then!
Carvalho is immense I have to say - he'd walk straight into our team, even though we have six central defenders!
King and Carvalho would be quality!

Yes I think we can - we will be challenging with Liverpool for 4th spot I reckon. Usuaully we are battling with them right up until Jan/Feb before we fall away but this season I think we can go all the way and pip them at the post.

LOL - Newcastle trying to sign Kanoute at the last minute.
Maybe we can bump the price up a bit!

I think King is overated. He isn't a paticularly good CB and isn't cut out to be in the England squad. I think Wayne Bridge is better than Del Horno. Del Horno was bought for cover because last season when Bridge was injured Mourinho didn't have options for LB.

Great at tackling, positioning and his communication is quickly improving as club captain.
As for Bridge, he did used to play for Southampton - whether he will be better than del Horno if he produces form he produced in Spain is debatable though.

For such an untalented premiership footballer, it's amazing how awesomely awesome spud is! Charlton should loan us him back for our games against the scum - he always managed to score the winner! And have you seen his missus...?

I think you should watch a few more Spurs games - King is absolute quality, and definitely should be challenging for a place in the England team.

I think Tottenham have got quality players- I think Mido is top and so is Carrick. I think in the England line up both Gerard and Lampard shouldn't play together, Carrick should play with one of them. He's got great vision.

Everton will win the Premiership, Uefa Champions League and the FA Cup this season no doubt but not the Carling Cup because that's our bogey competition.

You're probably right but I'm still wary of him

He will improve more this season and he definitely deserves a place in the England squad anyway.

Are you being serious, I think Everton will be lucky to be in the top ten this season
