Wasn't there. Assuming he's seen it all before. Saw DDR, Osvaldo, Balzaretti, and I think Strootman. Others I didn't quickly recognize.

No.
They're not the strongest in defence. Spurs is still missing a Modric like player to drive the team as well.
I must agree with you here. Norwich looks to be putting together a solid team that could push for top 10. As long as they keep building like that solidly over the years and watch their finances they will be in a great position.

If Soldado plays well, Spurs could be a top 3 team in the EPL at the end. Man Utd and Arsenal have done nothing to improve, while Spurs, Chelsea and City all loaded up.
My early season prediction for the EPL
1. Chelsea (not because Im biased, i legit think they have the best squad)
2. Man City
3. Tottenham
4. Man Utd
5. Arsenal
6. Everton
7. Liverpool
Other league winners
La Liga - Real Madrid (Classicos are gonna be fun this year)
Serie A- Juventus (Napoli havent done enough to dethrone them yet)
Bundesliga - Borussia Dortmund (if Lewandowski stays, I think they beat Bayern this season)
Ligue Un - Paris St. German (the competition from OL/OM and Monaco isnt enough to oust them)
Primeira Liga - Benfica (Im looking forward to the Benfica vs Porto games)
Champions League - Real Madrid (Top to bottom this team is the most stacked in Europe. If they dont win this season, it should be considered a failure of a season)

No way Spurs are finishing ahead of United, Id be VERY VERY surprised if this happened, The thing is with Spurs is that they do not have the winners mentality and that is why at the crucial moments in the season they lose it
My tips for the coming season:
EPL - Chelsea (kills me to say but Jose returning is the key point, Think City will run them close, United 3rd)
La Liga - Barcelona (Seems to me that they have got there hunger back)
Serie A - Juventus ( But i do think Napoli will run them close, Would not surprise me if they win, Fiorentina the dark hose)
Bundesliga - Bayern (Too strong for Dortmund IMO)
Ligue 1 - PSG

Man I want to make full season predictions but I can't right now. Too many transfer days left. I'll hold off till the end of August.

I'll go with:
EPL: Chelsea, but in my heart Arsenal will shock get Suarez, then Walcott will continue to become a beast and we wil break the drought
Bundesliga: Bayern (just disgusting depth on this team, maybe aside from forward but that won't hold them back)
Ligue 1: Smh but if PSG don't win again it will be a monumental failure, damn oil money
Serie A: Juventus (will be very tough again like those above, Napoli could give them some trouble I hope Roma makes a CL spot for Mike Bradley too though
la Liga: Real Madrid (I think they're primed this yr to take over) but wouldn't surprise me if Barca won again, never doubt messi
Premeira Liga: Benfica (Coupe wont like this but I have to see how The Porto replacements step up) it'll probably be very close again
Champions League: Bayern

Wether United has bought players or not to have spurs above us is just mad.. Even if we field the exact same team as last yr.. we still have a shot a better shot at title than spurs.

I'm looking forward to see how they do this season. I have been debating which Norwich players to have on my fantasy team. I keep switching it up. I'm interested in Fey because dude becomes a beast in FIFA
PSV vs Milan should be interesting, I was worried we would be matched up against the Dutch side. Fenerbache won't be a breeze but we should be able to get pass them

I don't mind some of y'all picking Benfica at all. I'm a Porto fan in and out but even I have to be somewhat objective, it's going to be difficult for Porto to win again. I wouldn't bet my money on it.
However I'm extremly happy with the players we signed. They may be too young to win it this year but there's great talent. Can't wait to see Quintero, Kelvin, and Iturbe come together. I expect Jackson Martinez to have a monster year tho.
If we do win this year tho, Benfica should just give up.

Moyes bidding for fellaini after the clause is a little fishy, added with the several bids for Fabregas something is not right here. It's like United wait until No is the definite answer to bid on someone.

Raheem needs to "steady" himself... Beating on his girl no less...
Tough CL draw for Arsenal (Fenerbahce). I like Wenger, but do Gooners think the game has passed him by? He had a lot of money available for the summer transfer window & he hasn't gotten anybody of note.
Transfer rumors -
- Moyes eyeing a final £40m Fabregas bid. :x
- Inter & Napoli are rumored to be interested in Eto'o...

*Sigh*
@AFCM18 Professional Footballers' Association chief Gordon Taylor says it will be "practically impossible" for Luis Suarez to leave this month
Things should have gone smoothly and much better so far this window. I don't even want Suarez at the club. And it seems that buying players for other positions relies on buying Suarez first. TV5 is out injured and Miquel is going on loan, we don't even have any CB's to rotate. As good as Sagna is filling in that role, Jenkinson isn't ready yet to play RB. And worst case scenario, one of them gets injured, then what? Our players are begging for new signings, it's clear that we need them. But for whatever reason AW is slacking despite our funds. The board doesn't seem to care much, as usual there isn't much pressure from them, just empty words. I would love to know what plan b is.
Wenger is in the last year of his contract, in prior post I have said that we should wait until towards the end of the '13-'14 season to see where we are as regards to how we have progressed in terms of offering him a new contract. But I think soon enough we'll get an idea. I don't think I can be much of Wenger as manager supporter much longer.

Madrid is not more stacked than Bayern. Bayern is head and shoulders above every team in the world right now, AND they keep buying all of Dortmund's best players. No way they're losing the title to them. :ll

No, you underestimate the change of Bayerns coach. I think in 20 years from now, people maybe call Heynkes the best coach of all time. It's nearly impossible to top that. And when Bayern begin to lose their first matches I'm quite sure that they'll become nervous like in the past. This season will not be as good as the last one.
