There's nothing quite like the Premier League, let's be honest. Ever since what many would describe as the best World Cup ever, football fans across the world have been counting down to the start of the new season. Spain may have the likes of Messi, Ronaldo and last years PFA Player of the Year Luis Suarez, Germany may have Robben, Reus and the core of a World Cup winning squad, but for pure excitement, passion, competitiveness and unpredictability, the Premier League is the best, unquestionably. And this season is one of the most eagerly anticipated yet after the dramatic downfall of Manchester United last season under David Moyes. Will it be another season of misery for the most successful club in Premier League history, or can Louis Van Gaal turn them back into title contenders? Can Liverpool pick up where they left off last season without Suarez, or will they prove to be toothless once again? Will Alexis Sanchez make the difference for Arsenal and lead them to their first league title in 11 years? Is Diego Costa the world class striker which Chelsea need to take them to the next level? Manchester City will certainly have something to say about all of that. Lets not forgot the bottom of the table either, newly promoted clubs Leicester, Burnley and Queens Park Rangers will be looking to make their mark in the top flight, thats for sure, and what makes this league so great is that anybody can beat anybody and there are no easy games, as 2012/13 Championship Play-off winners Crystal Palace proved last season. So in this unpredictable league where there are no foregone conclusions, here is your definitive guide to how the season will pan out for each club in the next nine months, which teams will prove successful and which teams look destined for failure. Let the best league in the world commence...
