I can't wait, Glenn's doing a fantastic job after a bad
start at Upton Park last season. We have a very young squad that
can only get better and in Youssef Sofiane we have another
excellent young talent in the making. 7th spot for last season was
a fantastic achievement and I can honestly believe we can better
that. 6th spot and a UEFA Cup place would be a realistic
target but I think that if everyone stays fit we are capable
of finishing 4th and qualifying for the Champions'
League.

I think we will beat 53 points. With David James being fit from the
start, our defence will be stronger away from home (hopefully!)
This will be worth a few points and as long as we keep our home
form as strong as last year we will be pushing for a European
place. Come on you Irons!

In true East End optimist fashion, I'd say that we can push Man
Utd and Arsenal for the title and should expect automatic
qualification to the Champions' League at the very least.
We'll double the 53 points gained last season, Jermain
Defoe will finish top Premier League goalscorer, and Rio will
come back to Upton Park just to get the chance play alongside his
brother. Oh, and Paolo will become the club's honorary
president. Either that or we'll finish about 9th with 51
points...
Jo Turner, Worcester
I think we can finish higher then 7th, and get more league points.
We just need to improve on our away form, and we can easily do
that with the players we have.

Considering the past two months of last season, you would say
yes. As far as I'm concerned, key players are staying which is
a good sign. In midfield they are a top five team from my point of
view. In defence there is a slight improvement to be made and
up front they should score a few goals more. I expect them to
have more points than last season and at least close the gap on
Leeds and Chelsea. Now they have got their new stadium and their
average attendance is as good as Chelsea's. Personally, the
most important thing to me is that young lads like Johnson and
Ferdinand are regulars on the subs bench, which I'd consider a
big achievement.
