Season Opener

It’s time for our annual season-opening post . . . about the English Premier League, that is. Who do you think will win it all? Chelsea in a repeat? Manchester United bent on revenge? Arsenal? A resurgent Liverpool? Dark-horse Tottenham?
I tipped Chelsea but I’m wavering following their weak preseason. Who do you pick?

  1. I think the UCLA men’s soccer team would be the best out of all of those teams. Landon Donovan and Beckham would be just too much to handle for Fabio Capello’s team. Especially with Cobi Jones setting up the attack from the wing and Alexi Lalas solidifying the back line.

  2. Is this “Inside English Premier League” or “Inside USC” …?

    Sweet scoop indeed, wolf.

    Next.

  3. BREAKING NEWS: For the sweetest scoops and the real look Inside USC, try the LAT or the OCR or anywhere else. Sorry for the interruption. We now return you to your regularly scheduled program-The Voices Inside Scotty’s Head.

  4. Hot spurs. They are playing with a chip on their shoulder like sc. Plus they f’ing hate ucla

  5. Hey Scott – I’m a die hard SC FAN and I love the EPL – so screw all these other haters!

    Here’s how it will break down:

    Man U (Chicharito will rock the world this year)
    Chelski (only cuz Petr Cech is injured to start the season)
    Man City (WOW – these guys SHOULD win it all but not sure if they’re ready)
    Arsenal (my favs & with Cesc back – watch out!)

    La Liga will be the same as always: BARCA & Real Madrid – easily the two best clubs on the planet

    Liga Mexicana – Cruz Azul has an awesome lineup but you know they’ll fail. Chivas, Toluca & Santos will all be there at the end.

    F I G H T O N !

  6. Cmon guys, USC football doesn’t start for almost 3 weeks, always room for some EPL. Gooners are going to do it this year!

  7. I don’t get it? Then why not talk about the Dodgers or the PGA championship? Because it’s a blog called “Inside USC”. Go find a blog about soccer and discuss it there. Next thing you know Scott will start blogging about some obscure girls group.

  8. CAN’T WAIT for football season when Wolf posts pictures of him with opposing teams’ cheerleaders.

  9. Scott you know I am a die hard Chelsea fan so of course my pick is Chelsea!

  10. could be any of the top five and i don’t think any of us know enough to properly guess, including wolf.

  11. Hey, what do you all think about the PGA today? Tough conditions. Do you think Phil will ever be able to hit his driver in the fairway?

  12. I used to hate Soccer until I decided to watch some of the world cup games, and man! I must say those soccer players are some athlete! put any of the USC football players out there on the soccer field and they wouldn’t last a half, they would either cramp up in the first 20 minutes or they would have torn ACLs by the end of the game.

    I don’t know many of the EPL teams but I’m with PABLITO on this one, Manchester United with Chicharito is the team to beat.

    Go Irish!!
