Chelsea went into the season with a bunch of title winners who had something to prove, a new midfielder who had been instrumental for the previous champions, and a manager who had won three titles in a row at his last club. But, when asked who would win the title, more of you picked Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool.
Chelsea won just a handful of votes more than Arsenal. And Tottenham only secured 6.4% of the vote.
Mind you, it’s only fair to look back at our own predictions too ...
