    Blackburn are, as they are the only team to actually do anything in the Premier League bar Arsenal, United, and Chelski. Liverpool get in by default

    ah yes ... sure football only started up in 1993.

    Leeds.
    Themselves, Blackburn and to a lesser extent Newcastle are the only teams to have contended for the league outside the current 4 (well 3 really.)


    Villa have had had the best result outside of the big 4 (2nd spot 92/93 season - whatever happened to Dalian Atkinson?)

    By the way, the answer is : Villa for 5th this year

    I'd say Everton...definately..
    They have a brilliant manager in David Moyes. He's built up a great squad on a fairly small budget.
    Tim Cahill, Mikel Arteta, Yakubu and Joleon Lescott are all top quality players and would be a lot more highly regarded if they were playing for Man Utd , Chelsea or Liverpool.
    I'd say Pompey are the 6th best team. Krankjaer is world class and Sol Campbell and Utaka aren't bad either. I'd like Portsmouth to get into europe this season but I think if Harry Redknapp leaves to join Newcastle I think they may struggle to.

    Nope, but the Premier League did (well it crowned it's first Championship team), if he wanted top flight football's fifth team than he would have asked for it
