Well I have decided to back my team Manchester City to win the Premier League @ $3.50 and I put 1.5k on them. I also like Arsenal @ $7.00 but I put them to finish in the top for @ $1.50 and put $500 on it. These odds are from my countries sports book which I'm happy with. So for a 2k outlay I'll get back 6k if they come in for me.

I think you need better odds for Arsenal to finish in the top 4.  With Pochettino, Conte, Klopp and even Ranieri going after the top 4 and Arsenal's lack of better striking options over Giruod, they would have a really hard time getting in there this season.  I'm not even mentioning Pep and Mourinho yet and it's already a hard proposal for Arsenal.

I agree they should offer better odds then the odds I took but I'm going on history for Arsenal to finish in the top 4 which have done so for many years now. Yes the competition is a lot tougher this year but remember the players need to work well with the new coaching styles of Man City Man Utd and Chelsea. They could click right away or it could take time while Arsenal has virtually the same team as last season.
