Next up to give us his pre-season thoughts is Antoine from Liverpool’s Empire of the Kop. This’ll be fun eh?
TheChelseaBlog: So, a new season awaits – what are you hoping to get from it, is it your year?
EmpireoftheKop: At least top 4, we should make top 4.
TCB: Erm…ok but what do you realistically expect?
EOTK: If you look at the last half of last season and what Kenny did since he came on board I believe that Top 4 is in the bag.
TCB: So given you couldn’t achieve that last season, you must think the transfer window has been kind to you?
EOTK: Yes so far I believe there might be 1 or 2 signings before the window closes. I would really like for us to offload some of the dead-weight too.
TCB: Is there anyone you’d give your right arm to bring in?
EOTK: Messi? LOL
TCB: Who are your most important players?
EOTK: Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher and Pepe Reina
TCB: What about opposition players? Which PL player worries you most?
EOTK: Sergio Aguero, he just signed with Manchester City.
TCB: Obviously the sun really does shine out of Dalglish’s rear end but how do you think he stands up against the rest?
EOTK: He is the King 🙂 No one knows more about football than Kenny Dalglish, he has proved it time and again both as a player and as a manager. We fell off our perch after Kenny resigned following the stress he suffered having to attend all those funerals of the Hillsborough victims.
TCB: And your supporters – can they give the opposition a run for their money?
EOTK: Of course always we can out-sing them all 🙂
TCB: Where do you think you’ll finish this season?
EOTK: 3rd
TCB: Actually, I’d heard 3rd spot was ours but fair enough. Any predictions for the top four then?
EOTK:
Chelsea
Man Utd
Liverpool
Man City
TCB: …..right you are then Antoine, cheers.
