I don't know where you got Anelka +6 at 22/1 for top scorer.

Paddy Power has him 14/1 at outright betting.

My bets are as follows:

Top Scorer:

Anelka 14/1
Gerrard 20/1
Robinho 22/1
Defoe 25/1

PFA Player of the year:

Lampard 11/1
Rooney 11/1
Vidic 25/1 (bearing in mind I reckon United will have a huge emphasis on keeping it tight at the back this season).

Relegation:

Get in heavy on Hull at 5/6
Pompey are currently 5/2 (I got them at 5/1 last month happy days!)

Hull to finish bottom at 4/1

Champions:

Liverpool at 10/3
Man City (shot in the dark) 12/1


Crazy Bet:

Christian Bentiez top scorer- 100/1

Seaneh

A.C. Milan to win the CL.

20/1 with paddy power.

Have 15 on it.

Being honest, inter at 11/1 is much better value and Juve at 25/1 is insane value.

I'm lumping onto that Rooney bet

you just know that if its in the balance at all then Rooney will edge it if he even has half a decent season at all.

Lampard has never won it so thats my logic behind that.

I can't see any Italian side winning it. But Juve for the league may not be a bad shout this year.

The winner will be one of Chelsea, Liverpool or Barca.

can ya explain to me how that particular handicap works?

he has to be within 6 goals of the top scorer?

I thought Anelka (+6) meant Anelka gets a 6 goal start and if hes within 5 of the top scorer then its a winning bet.

As far as I know The Handicap is add to all players at the end of the season
So if
Anelka scores 30 he finish with 36 (+6)
Torres scores 35 he finish with 35 (+0)
Rooney scores 27 he finish with 32.5 (+5.5) and so on

Anelka has a six goal start on Torres yes but only .5 on Rooney and has -6 on someone like Crouch .
Hope this helps.

sure does. sounds like a good bet to me. Better than 14/1 outright anyway. cheers for that.

Bologna 6/4 to get relegated seems like and absolute sure thing to me. Chances of Di Vaio getting 24 are slim to none. Also like Siena at +39 in the handicap betting and Pazzini to be top scorer at 50/1

No chance of City only being 1 place behind United at the end of the season.

Nalz

Pats to make it out of the group stages?

Mark Hughes to be sacked?

Mezcita

I've backed the following. Prices have since been cut.

Arshavin (each way) to be top goalscorer. - 35.0 at Ladbrokes.
Arshavin to score more than Van Persie - 5.5 on Betfred
Pompey to get relegated 6.0 on PartyBets.

Warper

I have backed:

Chelsea - Premier League @ 9-4
Juventus - Serie A @ 7-2
Barcelona - La Liga @ 10-11
Brazil - World Cup @ 5-1
Hull to be relegated @ 10-11
Everton W/o Top 4 @ 5-1

I was thinking Rooney for top-scorer at around 12-1 but im not sure. Who takes Utd's penalties?

Headshot

warper you and brazil ehh

look they're not going to win it

i hate long term bets,iv no patience for stuff like that

myself iv went for a double of leeds and west brom to win this week

Neil3030

Burlney, Hull and Wigan to be relegated, 33-1.

obviously its your shout but I would be amazed if Rooney was top scorer.
Defoe at 25/1 is good value.
Robinho at 22/1
and Anelka at 14/1.

Neil3030

Richard Dunne, first player to be sent off this season at 100-1 is a decent punt.

RasTa

Liverpool 5th or lower @9/2 for me.

I know, I cant get enough of them - I just think Brazil are by far the safest bet. Come next summer I will have to paint myself yellow.

I like the long-term bets - over the course of a season, the best team normally wins.

Does anyone know who is Utd's penalty-taker this season?

Just heard it from a very reliable source that Matthew Upson will be a city player by the end of the week. Spartak Moscow have posted on their website that Radislav kovac has signed a permanent contract for the hammers and he will take upsons place with danny gabbidon back from injury to partner him. I've lumped on the 4/1 offered by sky bet as the price will be slashed very soon.

They do just not for all players the had Ronaldo, fabregas, Ribery, Valencia,Owen and loads more in the what club will the player be with at start of season

Sunderland to finish in the top half @ 2/1
Portsmouth to be relegated @ 9/4

Both good bets there.

Bandit12

Have 10 on Wenger to be gone from Arsenal by season's end (before the season's over)....75/1 with betfair. Worth a punt imo. If Fabergas goes to Barca as is rumoured then i think he will walk.

Sylvan Ebanks-Blake top English goal scorer 28/1

Should've just sent me the tenner. I would've bought two pints with it and cheered you in the process. More than you're gonna get out of that bet!

Considering he's 120-1 on Betfair it's interesting that someone is having the gall to offer 28-1. Defoe won't start enough btw. Still like Eduardo at 27-1 and Bent at 42-1

While keeping the captain out, and also having a £15m striker in Pavlyuchenko on the bench.

Can see a bit of rotation next year at Spurs, but can't see Keane out of the XI.

Yeah I've got Keane in my Fantasy team as I see him playing when fit. Wanted to stick Defoe or Crouch in but didn't know which one would start, I figured it'd rotate.

Of course not. It'll be back back and forth fouth between the 4 of them all season. Crouch will be Ghostface, Pavyluchenko Redman, Defoe GZA and Keane Ol dirty bastard.none of them will get a top goalscorer run in the team.

There should be value in 3 striker teams with no African nations commitments
