EPL: Merson predicts where Chelsea, Man Utd will finish next season

Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, has predicted where Chelsea and Manchester United will finish in the Premier League next season.

Last season, both clubs endured miserable campaigns.

The Blues were stuck in mid-table for most of the season, but won their last five fixtures to sixth and qualify for Europe.

Mauricio Pochettino has since been replaced by Enzo Maresca at the helm.

On the other hand, United endured their worst-ever Premier League campaign, finishing in eighth place.

However, they defeated Manchester City in the FA Cup final, to clinch a Europa League spot.

“I’ve got a feeling for next season,” Merson told Sky Sports.

“I think Tottenham have got to concentrate on one thing. I think top four, Chelsea are going to be there, Man Utd can only get better – top four’s hard now.”
