It's the Gunners year.

Also I don't know if anyone else saw this but apparently the BBC reported on Friday that the ownership of the Sporting Kansas City MLS franchise is looking to buy Everton for approximately 225 million pounds (which equates to about 347,377,500 U.S. dollars). A spokesperson for Sporting Kansas City has said there's no truth to the report while those with Everton have not commented on the report.

Here's a link to a story regarding it bdutts: http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34548860
isn't aston villa still for sale?
I think they may be or at least their ownership is wanting to sell. Same with Sunderland.
Lots of good matches this weekend. I'm going w/Arsenal, Chelsea & City. But wouldn't it be a hoot if the Hammers came through?
city should take the manchester derby. everton have been a bit out of sorts lately and arsenal are in form so i'm going with arsenal (no bias there). i'd love to see the hammers kept chelsea down although their home form (1-1-2) is not as good as their away form (4-1-0).
Was wondering if you recovered from the Bayern game. ;-)
This weekend's Premier League schedule (all times central):
Saturday
9:00 AM, NBCSN: West Ham vs. Chelsea
9:00 AM, USA: Leicester vs. Crystal Palace
11:30 AM, NBC: Arsenal vs. Everton
Sunday
7:00 AM, NBCSN: Sunderland vs. Newcastle
9:00 AM, NBCSN: Manchester United vs. Manchester City
11:15 AM, NBC: Liverpool vs. Southampton
In August, when the media company announced the new deal, which extends an earlier partnership and spans the 2016-17 season through 2021-22, NBC Sports Chairman Mark Lazarus predicted the company wouldn’t make money on the transaction, positioning it more as a loss-leader that would support the broader NBC sports portfolio.
But as the U.S. audience for the Premier League surges, he already is hedging those comments, saying in a recent interview: “We won’t make money at the beginning.” Premier League matches are just about the only major sports property in the U.S. showing any significant long-term growth in a splintering media environment in which executives declare victory when audience sizes remain flat or dip only slightly.
Audience size has risen 150%, on average, compared with three years ago when the games were on Fox and ESPN.
