Football 2016 - 2017 Discussion Thread

It's coming home, it's coming, football's coming home!

It's upon us folks. The 2016-2017 BPL season kicks off on August 13 and runs on until May 2017.

Will Leicester be able to be defending champions? Will Manchester United or Chelsea return to glories past? Will Boro, Hull or Burnley be able to stay up, or go back down?

The greatest sport in the greatest league is back.

EDIT: Oh, and all those other leagues as well I guess

So, what shall we do for the rest of the leagues (Bundesliga, Spanish Primera, Serie A), create separate threads?

I'll edit the thread title.

Most people on here talk about the premier league. But the other leagues can hang in here until there's enough interest to justify a separate thread

Cool. Thought it'd be better to do what Gav did last year creating a general footie discussion thread.

The Chosen one, David Moyes is back in the premier league. New manager of Sunderland

He will do a good job, better manger then the guy he replaced, just not on that top tier level

Agreed. He tends to do better with smaller clubs with less expectations of constant gold from what I have gathered

Another year of Koscielny pocketing Kane :jeritroll:

Watching Spurs vs Juventus right now. Pretty obvious that our u21 central defenders need to go out on a loan spell. There's an obvious gap between u21 play and top team play.

They're not bad but they just have not taken that final step up on senior level and have a problem catching up to Juventus strikers

Spurs bludgeoned Inter today. Winning 6-1
