The New Premier League season kicks-off this afternoon with Manchester United looking to land their 20th title. The likes of Andre Villas-Boas and Kenny Dalglish sound bullish ahead of it with the Chelsea boss claiming he will feel extremely let down if he hasn’t recaptured the title come May. United and the Blues remain the bookies favourite, although you would be foolish to ignore the potential of Manchester City this coming season.
Elsewhere in the papers this morning Mancini has criticised his board over transfers; Ferguson depressed by rioting youths, while Robbie Keane is a wanted man in LA.
