    Close between City, Everton and Spurs. On their day Spurs would be the best but over the course of the season it has to be City.

    Silly question. Just look at the table:

    Team GP W D L Pts GF GA GD
    Arsenal 21 15 5 1 50 42 16 26
    Manchester United 21 15 3 3 48 38 11 27
    Chelsea 21 13 5 3 44 33 16 17
    Manchester City 21 11 6 4 39 29 22 7
    Liverpool 20 10 8 2 38 34 13 21

    So Liverpool would be your answer.

    Annie Waye, Spurs have finished 5th the last two seasons so they probably have the most (objective) claim on the prize. They probably get my vote as well. They had a three month blip, when they were like blimps, at the start of this season. Now that they're a bit fitter (I've never seen Keane as lean) and King has come back they're starting to look like the 5th best team again. Pretty close between them and Everton though, with Everton's loss to Oldham probably swinging my vote towards Spurs.


    Oh yeah, Metrostars (ya bloody smartass!) you are actually WRONG!!!

    You quote the current Premier League table, when the thread title states 'Premiership'. The 'Premiership' is now defunct. Thus, Tottenham will forever be the Premiership's fifth team. (a historical inference to the question would be entirely nonsensical seeing as clubs simultaneously formed the league)

    Case closed then.

    Leeds United.

    They've just loaned it out for a while.

    Long-term I'd say you're right.
    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.)
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    And here was me thinking that Everton, Forest, Villa, etc had actually WON the league at one stage or another!

    There is no defined 5th team. the also-rans are all interchangeable. none of them has managed to close the gap on the "Big 4" so much for spurs going to do it this year

    this season Everton have been very good, home and away, City have a very good home record, not as good on the road but stil are higher in the league than Everton.

    if you look at some of their players its a tough call to say whos the better team or who has the better players....
    spurs have keane, berbatov, king as their 3 best players probably,

    city have Elano, Petrov and Dunne or richards

    everton have cahill, arteta and yakubu

    id prefer evertons, more consistent and reliable imo.
    Everton just shade it for me
