Is next years Premier League the best ever?

[FATTYFOULKE]

It has to be the best for years and maybe the best ever in terms of attraction for the neutral and the rest of the watching world...

Arsenal
Aston Villa
Brighton
Burnley
Chelsea
Crystal Palace
Everton
Fulham
Leeds United
Leicester City
Liverpool
Manchester City
Manchester United
Newcastle United
Sheffield United
Southampton
Tottenham Hotspur
West Bromwich Albion
West Ham United
Wolverhampton Wanderers

Plenty of big traditional clubs in there, nearly all of them an attraction for the worlds Premier League.

Looking at the contenders I’d struggle to improve it. Maybe find room for Sunderland but not sure who I’d take out to accommodate them.

Palace? Brighton, Burnley?

Not sure.

What’s your thoughts. Is this the most attractive Premier League for years if not ever?

Who would improve it?

Sunderland apart, its pretty much the perfect Premier League.

 

[Niceguyeddie]

There's only one massive club missing from.that list
The one they all want back.but the EFL keep putting a stop to it

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

Every year the Pigs aren't in it makes it a good year for me

Not sure who you mean. I’ve had another look but can’t see any other big attractive clubs outside our League?

One or two with persecution complexes but they wouldn’t make the cut..

I think most of the big footballing cities are represented......Nottingham and Bristol may have a case though.

Fair do’s Forest would have a shout.

Not sure about Bristol City but they’d be an adequate replacement for Fulham.

But yeah Forest by virtue of their European Cup wins should probably be in there.

The wider world would see them as an attractive club.

More to do with the size of city with Bristol......and they do have 2 clubs

Just looking at that Premier League next season.

Mouth watering..

They were nearly 50 years ago. Forest have been a distinctly average Championship side for at least 20 years. Just as they were before Cloughy temporarily elevated them.

 

[Darnall Siam Blade]

Sunderland (History, attendance) instead of Brighton.

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

Pompey instead of Palace, Brighton, Fulham, or Burnley.

 

[8lade]

What about a Welsh team, I'd go for Swansea as they have been the better side in recent years.

You must be 12, no not ever no welsh ever

 

[JayGreen17]

Portsmouth no, forest and maybe Derby instead of Brighton and Burnley

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

Portsmouth no, forest and maybe Derby instead of Brighton and Burnley

Possibly, but have a look at Pompey`s history. Forest cos of Clough fair enough.

 

[Blade for Sale]

It's a ridiculously strong league next season. Wolves and Leicester look more than capable of turning the traditional big 6 into a big 8, and among the 'also rans' you have sides managed by 2 of the most admired managers in the world in Ancelotti and Bielsa. Ourselves and Burnley will not make life easy for anyone, and Newcastle and Palace can be very dangerous on their day. Bring it on.

 

[metalblade]

Forest and Derby have always been very average Clough years aside. The 2000 season must have been the toughest even the massive couldn't compete.

I think you’ll find the championship aka La Liga is much stronger with multiple historic and massive clubs play.

 

[sufcboy95]

Sunderland and forest in for Brighton and Burnley. Wednesday in for West Brom if I was feeling generous

 

[Westran]

Sunderland, Forest for Brighton and Palace.

The only other potential would be Burnley for the pigs, but Burnley are the bigger club with better history these days.

 

[MobileBlade]

Obviously its really good but the proper club in there will give everyone else a 12 point lead and still piss it. Again.

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Portsmouth no, forest and maybe Derby instead of Brighton and Burnley

Burnley have a decent history and decent support.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

It's hard to say something will be the best ever when it's highly likely full stadiums are not going to happen as it stands

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Sunderland and forest in for Brighton and Burnley. Wednesday in for West Brom if I was feeling generous

West Brom have a great history and better support.

Also I’m not sure the Premier League would want the likes of Wednesday in it.

It has a reputation to uphold.

 

[Houston_Blade]

No it’s not. Surely to make it the ‘best ever’ you’d need the 20 teams with the highest average league placing in the pyramid since the PL started to be in the league?

 

[Harry's Game]

Wednesday in for West Brom if I was feeling generous

Banning Order...

 

[Broomhall Blade]

No they are not bothered about the Premier League its so last year.
Championship Re-badged sorry Premier League 2 is the future.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Forest and Derby have always been very average Clough years aside. The 2000 season must have been the toughest even the massive couldn't compete.

I don’t think people realise thst traditionally how small Nottingham Forest are. They are a special case as their reputation is based on those 2 European cup wins.

I’ll give you 2 facts that really surprise people about Forest.

1: After next season they will have spent more seasons at 2nd tier level than at any other level.
So talking factually.....historically speaking Forest belong in the Championship.....where as we’ve spent most of our history in the top flight.

2: Another fact is people don’t realise how ordinary/ underwhelming Forest’s support has been over the decades.
In fact in the last 24 years they’ve only averaged over 25,000 on 2 occasions (the last 2 years)
And in the last 40 seasons Forest have only broke the average 25,000 barrier during 3 (three) seasons.

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

No it’s not. Surely to make it the ‘best ever’ you’d need the 20 teams with the highest average league placing in the pyramid since the PL started to be in the league?

Don’t think so. Footballs been around far longer than since the inception of the Premier League.

Also the Premier League has had such clubs as WImbledon, Swindon, Barnsley and Oldham in it.

It’s more about attractiveness to the wider world, or at least that’s what I’m getting at. Clubs and matches you’d switch on the telly for.

Next years Premier League on that score is possibly the best ever.
