Wigan will stay up

Hard to say who will go down, I don't think southampton will go down, possibly QPR, Norwich and a wild card like aston villa

It's also incorrect usage of 'whom'.
Yeah, I am the SPaG Superintendent.

After the last two performances from sturridge, i dont think we need hulk as long as sturridge is fine with playing on the wing

Trouble is, he doesn't seem to be. He wants to be the main man with the glory of scoring the goals, which he won't get nearly as much out wide.

BB he was scoring goals there last season fine. I think in the end if he gets game-time he'll be happy. I'd hope so anyway

Yeah, he was, but odds are he'd score more as a CF, not RW.
