The bookies tell us three clubs - Man Utd, Chelsea and Man City - will challenge for the title, with Newcastle looking at odds of 2000/1 to triumph.
But, let's be honest, we know we won't be breaking the Top Four, but we hope to push on to challenge Spurs and Liverpool (or am I deluding myself?).

Is Alan Pardew safe? Not exactly, but there are bigger heads to fall ahead of him. Harry Redknapp at 11/1 is surprising but the odds are low because Fabio Capello is walking a very thin line as England boss. And odds say Steve Bruce is third favourite for the chop.
