 Paul Merson predicts where Chelsea and Manchester United will finish in the Premier League next season.



Paul Merson believes that Chelsea are currently linked with bigger things this season following the takeover by Enzo Maresca.


He made it clear that Chelsea will undoubtedly make their way to the top positions as they maintain their relentless efforts to make significant signings this summer.


The former Arsenal and England star said via Sky Sports that he thinks Chelsea will do better than last season.


I’ve got a feeling for next season,’ Merson told Sky Sports. ‘I think Tottenham have got to concentrate on one thing. I think the top four—Chelsea are going to be there; Man United can only get better—the top four’s hard now.’


With the way Villa got beaten in this season’s tournament, it made West Ham’s achievement a lot bigger. Before, we just thought, “Oh, whoever gets in that is going to win it,” but that isn’t the case.


‘I think if Tottenham win a trophy, that’d be amazing. I don’t think they have to get in the top four; I think they’ve got to win a trophy, I really do. I think trophies are the ones.


‘I mean, if you get in the top four and you do what Newcastle have done, you’re out [of the Champions League] by October. Everybody fights to get in it, and 80 percent of the teams getting in it haven’t got a chance of winning it.


‘Really, they’re doing it for the money, and really, it should be for the fans and winning trophies for the fans. So if they can win the League Cup or something like that, then I think it would be amazing for them, 100 percent.’


Given the potential competition at the top of the table next year, Merson has urged Tottenham to focus on winning a trophy rather than a top-four finish in the Premier League.


‘I’ve got a feeling for next season,’ Merson told Sky Sports. ‘I think Tottenham have got to concentrate on one thing. I think the top four—Chelsea are going to be there; Man United can only get better—the top four’s hard now.’


Spurs finished fifth in Ange Postecoglou’s first season in north London, narrowly missing out on a Champions League spot after briefly threatening to mount a surprising title challenge.


On Tottenham’s prospects for next season, Merson added, ‘I think a trophy would be amazing. I think that’s the way he’s got to go. I think it would have helped if they’d finished sixth and gotten into the Europa League, because a trophy is a trophy.

 “He’s going to be leaving Chelsea immediately after the EUROS, and I can tell they’ll regret selling him in the future, just like Chelsea regretted selling Mo Salah and KDB.” – Chelsea legend Didier Drogba issues a brutal warning to Chelsea after Enzo Maresca says he intends to release the ‘phenomenal’ star this summer for a very small fee. Didier Drogba has issued a blunt warning to Chelsea, cautioning them against selling their “phenomenal” player this summer. Drogba’s comments came in response to Enzo Maresca’s revelation that the player will be sold next month, a decision that Drogba believes will be deeply regretted in the future. Drawing parallels with Chelsea’s past mistakes, Drogba pointed to the sales of Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne (KDB) as examples of the consequences of letting talented players slip away. Salah, in particular, has gone on to become a Liverpool legend, leading the Reds to Champions League glory and terrorizing Premier League defenses. KDB, meanwhil...

 Fabrizio Romano has revealed Chelsea’s summer transfer plans, which include a €55 million striker. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has shut down a big transfer rumor from yesterday that fully got Chelsea fans excited and united in their desire for this player. This was a big story yesterday, but as expected, it soon got shut down by a couple of the top sources out there. EXCLUSIVE! Premier League striker wants Chelsea to move! Chelsea are never going to drop the money that would be needed to bring Alexander Isak away from Newcastle, are they? Not after what we heard about the likes of Michael Olise and Nico Williams deals being too expensive overall. Even though Chelsea dropped over £100 million in signing Enzo Fernandez and then again in Moises Caicedo, it looks like the days of Chelsea spending big money on individual players are over, and they are looking for young players as opportunities rather than buying an established player on big wages and for big money. That is at least...
