UNITED – FIRST TROPHY OF MANY THIS SEASON?

William Hill make Manchester United a 150/1 chance to win all four major trophies available to them this season – and 11/10 to end the season with nothing other than the Community Shield to show for their efforts.

They are 7/4 to win one of the four; 9/4 any two; 25/1 any three.
United are 11/8 favourites to win the Premiership title with William Hill who make Chelsea 13/8 with Arsenal 4/1 and Liverpool 15/2.

PORTSMOUTH are 250/1 to win the Premiership, but 7/1 fifth favourites in William Hill’s ‘Without the Big 4′ market for which Spurs are 2/1 favourites with Everton and Villa both 5/1 and Manchester City 11/2.

KEVIN PHILLIPS’ late winner for Birmingham has kept them as favourites to win the Championship with William Hill who quote them at 9/2, with QPR 6/1 second favourites and Reading 7/1 third. Hills offer 50/1 that the three relegated clubs will go straight back up to the Premiership but make Derby 20/1 to be relegated again this season. (more…)

I actually fancy Fulham. With the great end to last season I see 43 points as a gift. Spurs look good too but all too often they disappoint.  Looks like the bookies have got spot on with the Premiership handicaps again and its a tough market to win.
