    Predictably not great predictions :)

    Got Man City correct. KdB currently has most assists and was neck and neck for PoTY. Kane has favourable fixtures so could still be top scorer but probably not.

    Not much else correct :/

    Winner: Man United
    Champions League spots (2nd, 3rd and 4th, in order): Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea
    Europa League spots (5th, 6th and possibly 7th, in order): Spurs, Arsenal, Everton
    Relegation: Brighton, Palace, Huddersfield

    Top Goalscorer: Lukaku
    Most Assists: Eriksen
    Player of the Year: Pogba
    Young Player of the Year (U-23): Dele Alli

    Best Signing: Lukaku if he fires them to the title but Chicharito as value for money
    Biggest Flop: Walker or Danilo - just the City defence really
    Underachieving/Over-Hyped Player: pretty much the same as above isn't it ? I'll say Ozil just to burst the 'form is temporary but class is permanent' nonsense
    Breakout Player: Demarai Gray or Trent Alexander Arnold if either can get a regular start

    Surprise Team (Good): Watford & Swansea
    Surprise Team (Bad): Palace
    First Managerial Casualty: Billic

    Audacious Prediction of the Season: - Liverpool to reach the Champions League final and Pep to resign in a fit of petulance and possibly even during a post match interview.

    Well I put all my eggs in the Jose basket and got it wrong. It won’t stop me predicting them to win it next year though. I went with Lukaku for top goal scorer and Pogba for player of the year simply because I really fancied United to win it.

    I really didn’t rate Pep, going into the season, and I thought he’d be found wanting hence my prediction for City defence being the biggest flop.

    Happy enough with my break out player suggestion.

    Delighted with my audacious prediction also.

    Think next season we should put bookmakers prices in brackets beside our predictions as it’s too easy to forget how things felt at the start of the season. For example my ‘surprise team good’ were Watford and people may forget they were in top 5 favourites for getting relegated - I think.
