They won't go back down next season. Wait and see how much money they spend.

Just like most of us thought Sheff Utd would do.

You mean like the £140 million Villa spent?

Yeah. Hopefully with the same outcome as Fulham when they spent big.

Leeds are no where near as good defensively. If you cant defend in the Prem you cant survive.

Norwich came up with 94 points last season...

    I believe they have already sold 320,000 season tickets.

    How rich is their owner? How much is he willing to put in? They bet the ranch on this season, they may have to splash £20m on Jean-Kevin Augustin before they even start. Ben White is on loan, Brighton want £40-£50m.

    Agreed about the defensive part. But, there’s a reason non of us are premier league mangers. Most of us actually know c0ck all about professional football!!!!

    As it stands, prior to the summer window, Leeds are nothing but another Norwich. They have an “attractive” style of play that I don’t see being sustainable in the Premier League. Bielsa may have worked wonders, but he is stubborn, very stubborn.

    You can pass and move all you want, but that will never be enough at Turf Moor against a fired up Burnley side when Chris Wood is on a good day.

    Leeds have conceded one goal less than we did when we won the Championship. They have 2 games to play but I wouldn't say that their defence will be their main issue. For all their possession and chances created they are relatively toothless up front, and will no doubt address that between now and the beginning of next season.

    People need to stop being so arrogant about the teams that are promoted from the Championship. They all have a tough task ahead but in honesty none of you have a clue how they will do. Who would have put Sheff Utd and Villa in their respective positions this season for ecample.

    But we’re established in the PL, looking to hunt down a European spot. Of course we can afford to be arrogant..... :?
