An interesting exercise! I managed to call the Winners (no real doubt) and the three relegations. What is interesting, though , are the indications of form changes for the seasons second half.
Man City feel apart, Wigan although losing form or dropped down 3 places. Villa got my expected points – everyone else just did better!
My calls on Chelsea, Man U , Liverpool and Aresnal were all pretty point close! Spurs, Bolton and Wigan just threw it away!
Finally West Ham did just what I predicted. Ah well better luck next season!
