Statman Dave's video: MY TOP 4 PREDICTIONS

🚨 NEW CHANNEL ALERT! 🚨 Statman Dave Clips ➡ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdndmk5cZuMaPzx_LFiJ0hQ?sub_confirmation=1 Welcome back guys! Today we’ll be taking a look at how the Premier League top 4 could look at the end of this season. An exceptionally strange year has translated into a very unexpected race for the top four, with the likes of Everton, Leicester City and West Ham United in genuine contention for European football. So today we’re going to be analysing the run in and predicting the top eight, who’s going to get into those Champions League spots for next season. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch First let’s take a look at Everton, after a strong start to the season setting up in a 4-3-3 with the likes of Allan, Lucas Digne, Dominic Calver-Lewin and Hamez Rodriguez amongst the star performers made it seem like Top four was on for Everton, but injuries to several key players throughout the campaign forced Ancelotti to constantly tinker to find a winning system which hasn’t really worked as the toffees are without a win in four league matches. The top and bottom of it is that the goals have dried up. In their first 15 matches of the season, Everton scored 26, conceded 19 times and picked up 1.9 points per game. Fast forward to their last 15 matches and they’ve scored just 15 times, conceded 19 again and as you can imagine, have picked up fewer points per game. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch It would take some serious doing for Everton to make top four all things considered, Now we’ve dismissed the outsiders, it's time to talk about the genuine contenders: Liverpool, Chelsea, West Ham and Leicester City.Jurgen Klopp’s men have endured a terrible campaign but a top four finish would put a very surprising shine on it. This season they’ve set up in their usual 4-3-3, that attacks in a 2-3-5 with the full backs creating chances for the front 3. But an injury crisis at centre back forced Klopp to move his best ball winners into that position to cover which meant Liverpool were extremely vulnerable to the counter attack. To protect against this we’ve seen Liverpool play more cautiously which saw them lose all confidence and identity. In fact between Christmas and March, Liverpool picked up just 3 wins from 12 Premier League games. However since partnering Ozan Kabak with Nate Phillips and returning Fabinho to defensive midfield, Liverpool have started to find a bit of form. But what will really concern their top 4 rivals is their run in. Liverpool have 7 genuinely winnable games, with their only tough fixture coming against a Manchester United side who might focus more on winning the Europa League than delaying the inevitable champions, Manchester City, from winning the league. ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon Now let’s talk about the biggest surprise package in the top 4 race this season, West Ham United. This season, David Moyes has alternated between a 4-2-3-1 against weaker sides and a 3-4-3 against better opposition. Regardless of shape, the general plan for West Ham is to sit deep and play on the counter attack, with pacey forwards like Michail Antonio and Jared Bowen hitting the space in behind. OR they rely on set pieces to break the deadlock, with Aaron Cresswell delivering for the likes of Tomas Soucek and Craig Dawson. t’s proved to be a superb solution for the Hammers but it’s been supercharged by on-loan Messi Lingard. He’s been directly involved in 11 goals in just 9 appearances since his debut for the Hammers, which is more than anyone else in the competition. I think we all want West Ham to finish in the top 4 and they are one of the form teams in the league but their injuries concern me. Their key players seem to be dropping like flies with the likes of Antonio, Rice, Ogbonna and now Aaron Cresswell all facing time on the sidelines. But with Lingard in the form of his life he might be able maintain West Ham’s goalscoring until their key men return. I’d love West Ham to hang in there and I do think they’re setup to cause Chelsea problems but I just worry about their injury record and Chelsea’s ability to control matches. As for Leicester, they proved last season that they can capitulate when they picked up just 4 wins from their last 11 and they’re currently 11th in the form table, which suggests they’re heading for a similar finish. So my top four predictions for this season will be City and United in 1st and 2nd with Liverpool and Chelsea in 3rd and 4th. What are your predictions for the top 4?
