After a two months break with this specific term tipped by pundits to be most exciting in recent times due to some variables, the new English Premier League season kicks off in significantly less than two hours, here are some predictions for the 2014/2015 EPL.
Arsene Wenger to finally end title drought- who would have thought Arsenal would go 11 years without winning the title after their mesmersing unbeaten. That team captained by the legendary Patrick Vieira was only one of the best of the modern era.
Former midfielder Ray Parlour who was part of the 'invincibles' said this present team is the closest to the 2004 team in terms of quality and cohesion.
The gunners team have been able to repair their defensive issues and with everybody fit, have a number of the very best forward line in the league as indicated at the FA Community shield game against Chelsea.
Team's all-time best, Thierry Henry believes the north London side want someone in the mould of Karim Benzema, a striker different from Olivier Giroud to eventually end the drought but in my opinion Theo Walcott could be that man.
Alexis Sanchez, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain, Santi Cazorla and Mesut Ozil, these are players that could consistently produce that additional flicker that may bring about victory in matches.
I really believe this is the season that it all comes together for Arsene Wenger as he lifts the EPL title in May and end a long wait for Arsenal fans.
Mourinho endures another prize less season- in his first stint in charge of Chelsea, Jose Mourinho lifted the premier league title back to back (2005, 2006) and he will be expecting to replicate the same this year to demonstrate he's still the 'special one'
Looking at the Chelsea team that is current, it is clear to see why the former Real Madrid manager would find it almost impossible to go through another title winning campaign.
Which is extremely unlike him in recent times, Mourinho has been inactive in this year's transfer window with Falcao being the only important add-on but the question remain will the current side still possess the same hunger, want and drive as last season, my reply is, no.
City to axe Pellegrini- Many like me thought Manchester City manager would get the boot after last season's dismal performance at the Etihad.
The Chilean was out of contention for the title by December and also removed out the UEFA Champions league, for such huge investments at the team, we could be pardoned for assuming he'd be fired at the end of last term, a month afterwards.
It's no secret that City owners' greatest aspiration is to have Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola at the helm and it's hard to find him past May if the Blues fail to do, even if Pellegrini lately signed a contract extension.
Rodgers to prove doubters wrong- A survey was conducted by whoscored.com as to which supervisor will likely be the most under pressure as the season kicks off and 56% overwhelmingly voted for Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers.
Then he has a hard task of impressing both his American owners, if the former Swansea chief has any desire to hold onto his job following this season and the Merseyside faithful.
Watford, the surprise package- it's an established fact that every year, there'll be a boosted team from the Championship that surprises the large, traditional teams with strong displays that keeps them on their toes.
This year, I believe that team would be Watford, have watched play in the second tier last term and I was impressed and in Odion Ighalo, they 've got a striker which could net as many as 20 goals if suit through the season.
