🏆 The Title Pick
Arsenal.
Repeat.
Bruno Guimarães + Declan Rice. The best central midfield partnership in England. Arteta has the scars. The squad has the depth. Even the Invincibles couldn't do it. This squad can. The Couch does not say this lightly.
COUCH'S PICK: CHAMPIONS
BACK TO BACK. FIRST TIME.

⚡ The Biggest Storyline
Guardiola
is Gone.
10 years. 20 trophies. And now Enzo Maresca inherits Haaland — and the weight of an entire era. City will be good. City will not be champions. The transition tax is real. The Couch is cashing it in.
20 TROPHIES IN 10 YEARS
MARESCA ERA BEGINS
✅Xabi Alonso → Chelsea — Won Bundesliga unbeaten. Has Palmer. Has Estevao. Don't sleep on this.
✅Michael Carrick → Man United — Steady. Respected. 4th or 5th. Sensible people approve.
⚠️Álvaro Arbeloa → Fulham — No senior management experience. The bold call: 18th. Down.
🎯Pierre Sage → Crystal Palace — Smart appointment. Europa League rotation handled well.
⬇️ The Relegated Three
Fulham.
Hull. Ipswich.
Fulham: Arbeloa can't do it. Bold call. Eighteenth.
Hull: Championship quality. Trippier fights but 38 games is too many.
Ipswich: Up. Down. Up. Down again. The Couch hates this prediction and is making it anyway.
3 GOING DOWN — COUCH CONFIRMED™
❤️ Team of the Season
Sunderland.
Thursday Nights.
Stadium of Light.
Europa League football returns to Wearside. Wilson Isidor — the Haitian striker who scored a screamer against Morocco at the World Cup — running at Premier League defences. The Couch will be emotional. The Couch is pre-warning everyone.

The 2026–27 Premier League season is here and the Couch has opinions. Bold ones. Poorly researched but deeply felt ones.
🏆 Arsenal win the title. Again. Back to Back for the first time in the English Premier League. The Couch is not calm about this.
⬇️ Relegated: Fulham, Hull, Ipswich. The Couch hates the Ipswich one. Making it anyway.
❤️ Team of the Season: Sunderland. Stadium of Light on a Thursday. Wilson Isidor. You will cry.
