Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[eaLiTy]

With the win against Middlesbrough ,Manchester United has moved to the fifth place in rankings and are now placed above Arsenal and Everton in the table. , Middlesbrough has to come up with good strikers if they ever plan on scoring goals,even with a higher possession they could not convert that to goals.

This match is heading towards draw this is biggest impression. Manchester City at home succeeded to equalize the score. Liverpool had to secure the lead by throwing ball in net at least once more. I don't think any team of these two will be able to score in remaining time.

Even though it was a draw it was a brilliant match,Manchester City and Liverpool played well and Liverpool is unbeaten for some time now and they maintained that position and i thought Manchester City had an opportunity to score the second goal but Kevin De Bruyne messed it up .

Yeah I agree, I'm just glad Man City didn't lay down like I thought might happen after losing early in the week in the Champions League match against Monaco. But they showed some fight and were able to get a draw which is better then a loss and it still keeps them in the top 4 which is where I am hoping they will finish at the end of the season. Man Utd are still in the hunt for a top 4 spot so it's going to be an interesting end to the season to see which team finishes in the top 4 as Chelsea have most likely won the title.

The idea that Pep has to bring in 7 - 9 new players for Man-City to click is ridiculous. Of Pep's purchases... Bravo and Nolito have had no impact at all, Stone is not as reliable yet and for Gundogan... injuries have not given him a chance to be a pivotal player. IMO, Pep as a manager has to be a bit flexible in how he can get the best of the squad he has with a bit of changes, not anything as radical as is being suggested.

I do agree that Pep has made some mistakes the biggest mistake in my opinion was loaning out Joe Hart to Roma as Bravo has been a complete bust for City and Pep this season. I also agree that Nolito hasn't had much impact at all, well I would say that he is not consistent as Pep would of liked him to be. Stones I think we get better as time goes on as he is still very young and learning Pep's style of play so I think next season we'll start to see a better performance by Stones. It will be interesting to see what Pep does in the summer transfer window.

no matter how the conditions of the players Man. City should have qualified coach Pep as the world can take advantage of existing players to get achievements with the team at least they have to be always consistent play to win in every game. but, in the game against Liverpool, last night proved that Klopp is still superior to every meet him, and Klopp managed to steal points at Etihad Stadium so they can maintain the fourth position of the standings, although they are still outnumbered play.

It looks like this year is the first time Pep without a trophy, this proves that there is nothing special from pep.. He's just inherited a team that was already great, barcelona already excellent when frank rijkard left and Bayern is already great when Jupp Heynckes's retirement.

Actually if Man City wants to be a dominant force in the EPL and the rest of Europe he has to bring in the best players.  The City squad right now isn't good enough obviously.  And for what Pep wants to do and to happen, he needs quality players.  Player acquisitions can be done in multiple transfer windows.  And with the EPL having the most demanding schedule compared to the other leagues, a good EPL team should have a squad deep enough in order to endure the said demanding schedule and also to have a good rotation of players.

i must says that i agree with your opinion because currently Manchester City not playing better such as last season even humiliated results from Monaco make Guardiola not too special as the coach even yesterday they cannot win against Liverpool however champion league zone maybe will the highest achievement for him in this season i guess

Not just MNC but almost all teams have same issue MNU late started to play seem like need little fuel in team, but all this fuz use Chelsea who is leading the table. Leicester is the worst team this season they are struggling to remain in premiership so it wont just be money in this.

The Manchester City team were not playing this badly when Pep arrived, His style is so rigid and he is so arrogant that he refuses to change it to benefit the team. He will continue to buy players with no good results unless he tweaks his style of playing. Even Barca are playing less of the tiki taka. Pep must adapt or be left behind.

He started great but fell down quickly. That's interesting because normally you'd expect the exact opposite.

Yes, I also felt changes Manchester City game when Pep arrived. Pep is very ambitious to make Manchester City playing like Barcelona or Bayern Munich, he sometimes puts the same formation. Buying a player I think is not the right choice for Pep, except the goalkeeper because Manchester City do not have a goalkeeper who had a good performance. Pep just have to adjust to the Premier League, especially Manchester City.

all i see is players playing hard to get with PeP , these days its justified that if players do not like their coach all the do is under perform
Pep saying he wants new players will bring the fear factor into his team and they will be forced to put in more effort
these are purely mind games

I agree with you on that, it's just to get the team to perform and if saying this will get the results I think as a coach I would do the same to get a good reaction from my team.

What does he thinking that it will bring him title, i don't think so. I totally agree with you on opinion that he need to be flexible then he can make great team.

I agree with you that the expectations were high for Man City this season but I don't agree with you that they will finish out of the top 4. I still think they can achieve this as Man City is a better team then Arsenal and Liverpool this season and should be able to hold them out and finish either 3rd or 4th. The danger in my opinion is Man Utd who have been in great form as of late and it may well come down to the Manchester Derby to see who finishes in the top 4, now that would be some sort of game to watch.

true this season all the new commers didn't do anything significent especialy for the goalkeeper because this seaon i only so him cost the team points but also Hart is noot the answer for their problems as he is making big mistakes at Torino i'm hearing that City targetting Real Madrid keeper Navas as Real Madrid also looking to replace him also i think that City needs another Defensive Midfielder as Yaya is getting old Gundogan is not Realible anymore also Fernando and Fernandinho wouldn't help much if they played alone in the midfield
