Yep I know it's a bit out there as predictions go John, and when you stick in the Sunderland to win at Old Trafford one, it does look like I've gone bonkers I admit.
I think Bolton are tough at Home though, they showed that against us and with Spurs having centre back problems, I expect Kevin Davis to cause them all sorts of bother.
Burnley Birmingham just looks too hard to call for me. Burnley aren't good enough to keep winning at Home, Birmingham probably aren't good enough to capitalise. I'd go 55-45 in Birminghams favour as I really think Burnley are about to go into freefall, but for me it's a draw 0-0.
Wigan would be my bet of the weekend at Hull. Hull are absolutely garbage and until they sack Brown will remain in freefall. They could appoint Mourinho and struggle to stay up. Wigan will win but the fact that they are Away and not much better than garbage themselves has led me to look elsewhere.
I think Pompey are unlucky not to have gotten points, and this is their week.
Sunderland I just fancy to chase up Man Utd at the back. They'll play one up top which suits their star striker perfectly, he's on fire and will cause man Utd plenty of problems. I take him to score twice and further ram GYBS's words down his throat
.
Arsenal is an easy one, I've been impressed with them so far. As far as we're concerned, I just can't see us losing at Chelsea for some reason, but I think we'll need to score to get something because they will. I've a feeling it will be 1-1 and we'll be talking about zonal marking from set-pieces again for a week as John Terry will probably score their goal.
Villa at Home are tricky, while Citeh anywhere are pretty tricky at the moment. I see this as a 2-2 or something similar.
I do fancy West Ham at Home to Fulham, I fancy Carlton Cole to give Fulhams big centre back more than he can handle. West Ham are beter than where they are in the league, I'm sure of it and I'd take them to win a couple of goals.
That just leaves Everton who after a sluggish start no doubt made worse by the Lescott saga, have started to get going. I'm surprised you think Stoke will get a point there, I'd fancy the bitters strong in that one. Stoke at Home are a handful, but Away seem to me to get caught not knowing whether to stick or twist. Louis Saha to continue his form and score at least once in a 3-1 Home win.
