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

2. **BRENTFORD 5-3 WOLVES, ARE YOU HAVING A LAUGH**

β€œStamford Bridge used to be a fortress, now it's a halfway house for dropped points.”

Had the right winner, never in a million years had eight goals on the coupon.

3. **VILLA 0-0 UNITED, RIVETING STUFF**

Backed Emery to do a job, got ninety minutes of two teams scared of their own shadow.

4. **CHELSEA BOTTLED IT AGAINST FOREST AT HOME**

Stamford Bridge used to be a fortress, now it's a halfway house for dropped points.

5. **EVERTON AND NEWCASTLE SERVED UP A NIL-NIL**

Two teams who promised goals turned up with the handbrake on, proper Sunday league energy.

The Gaffer's Call

β€œStamford Bridge used to be a fortress, now it's a halfway house for dropped points.”
