Depends on what you're drawn to.

If you're going for a "Big 6" type I'm going to say Arsenal, because I'm a fan. But that's up to you.

If you want an up-and-comer, maybe Wolverhampton. They will be in the mix soon.

If you want and underdog story, Crystal Palace started last year 0-7 without a goal scored. They wound up in 11th, and looked really good in match 1 yesterday.

Leeds are a good option. Will be in the second tier next season meaning matches will be easy to watch over here.

United would be a good one to follow. World class, likable manager, don’t sell their top players, perennial contenders for the carabao cup.

I started this same process just before NBC picked up the PL and choose Tottenham. I also follow Preston North End and try to pick one team that was promoted and learn what I can of them during the season.

Word of warning, being a Tottenham fan here will earn you some ridicule because of the lack of throphies over the last “few” years But we just hauled in the ICC trophy so I expect that ridicule to die down!

There are some knowledgeable fans on this Board and then there are the Arsenal fans that don’t know shite.

Much rather be in the CL final than be able to brag about the Carabao Cup.

You haven’t won the premier league ever
You haven’t won the UCL since 2005
You haven’t won a trophy since 2012 which happened to be the league cup

You have no ground to downplay others achievements

Just don't pick Chelsea, don't need any limps who can't even make their own decisions.

Everyone aiming to finish in the top half of the table has ground to downplay the Carabao Cup.

Congrats on getting smacked around on the biggest stage in club football, I guess?
