PL: Who to keep an eye out for

Jones and Van persie in action
As the start of the season approaches I feel it is my duty to compile the starting 11 to watch out for next year. This may be a tad premature as signings are still heavily expected, but still...

GK: Wojciech Scezny - Started to show his real potential in a pressured role at Arsenal. This season will be a big one for the Polish keeper - I don't think Wenger will look for a keeper this summer.

DR: Rafael - Better than his brother and now commands that right back role under Fergie.

DC: Phil Jones - Sir Alex wouldn't spend £16 on a centre back to be a squad player. Ferdianand is injury prone so expect to see young Phillip step up.

DC: David Luiz - Again, big BIG money spent to get him to the Bridge. Skillful, eratic and confident.

DL: Leighton Baines - Made my team of the year, last season. It's time for the left back to push Ashley Cole out of the picture in the England set up.

MCR: Luka Modric - Whether his playing at Spurs.. or Chelsea.. or Man Utd. Luka has the skill to become the leagues main man in the centre of the park. If he does leave he must thank Spurs for making him who he is today.

MC: Aaron Ramsey - After a year out, he came back to play United off of the park in his first home game. It's now or never for him to cement his place, and with the likely departure of Fabregas, it could be on.

MCL: David Silva - Had a fantastic first season in a physical side. Can he carry that into this season?

FR: Luiz Suarez - Signed in January. Quality, skill and shock value are the elements of his game. "Is he really going to shoot from there? - He has! He's scored!".

FL: Robin Van Persie - One thing is key. Staying fit. If he does this he'll be top goalscorer for the season.

FC: Demba Ba - Showed what he can do in a horrible West Ham side. Newcastle will bring the best out of a powerful front man, for sure.
