I wouldn't be amazed to see Man U finish third, and why would Teale be so upset about it?
The worst kind of predictions are those that sit on the fence and seem to suggest everyone will have a good season. Reading some pre-season previews you'd think there will be about eighteen teams in the top half next year. If you do make a prediction, you're bound to upset some of the nineteen teams you don't think will win the league, and three of the teams you think will go down. Much better to do that than just take the money your relevant media agency pays you then write a column offering fuck all opinion.
