1. **LIVERPOOL 3-0 BOURNEMOUTH, CALLED IT**

Anfield doing Anfield things, and yours truly had the scoreline stitched up before kick-off.

Every GW, his predictions land in your inbox on Friday morning. No spin. No excuses. Just picks.

2. **CHELSEA BATTERED WEST HAM 3-0**

β€œForest are the real deal.”

Had the away win, just underestimated how soft the Hammers would roll over at home.

3. **MAN CITY 2-2 ARSENAL, BOTH WALKED AWAY GUTTED**

Punted on a City win, ended up with bugger all because Arteta's mob still can't close the deal at the Etihad.

4. **NEWCASTLE MUGGED ME OFF AT FULHAM**

Backed the Toon, got a 3-1 the wrong way round, sometimes the Cottage just bites you.

5. **FOREST ARE THE REAL DEAL**

Drew 2-2 at Brighton when I had them losing, time to stop treating Nuno's lot like cannon fodder.

The Gaffer's Call

β€œForest are the real deal.”
