However, the big 4 haven't improved where as every other team has. I can see more defeats coming their way. it could be the most interesting league in years.

I won't state the obvious about who they should of signed in the summer, the fact is, their squad is average at best. If one team is going to fall out of the top 4 it's going to be them. I also don't understand paying 18m for a player who will miss the first 2 months of the season. Liverpool have gone back to being the ultimate snoozebuster team.

Even if Aquilani does step in and delivers some performances to make the Kop drool, it still may be too late. Centre midfielders in Seria A get a lot more time on the ball; in the Premier League they are not, even against the Hulls and Wolves of this league. They close you down and force mistakes.
