Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

Manchester United again showing signs of not a good football. Six games have passed and no signs of improving. I think it is time for Mourinho to leave Manchester United. He is there from a lot of time now and probably cannot fix things so I wonder why he has not already left.

I knew Manchester United would not win today and did not play it, I simply had an hunch that things may go terribly wrong in Old Trafford just like they did today.

Just when everyone thought Man United is going on a winning run after winning Burnley, Watford and Young Boys in their last 3 away games, United dropped points to a newly promoted team. I knew something was fishy when United odds to win Wolves at home is 1.60. The odds was way too high for United at home against a newly promoted club. I have a hunch that United may not even qualify for the Top 4 this season.

I'll agree with you these same thoughts were there on my mind, there's not even one thing right with the head coach, when Martial plays so well in mid week, he decides to shatter his confidence by keeping him on bench, his transfers choices have been poor. In middle of the match it seemed Manchester United would loose with the way they played, it's sheer boring football and I could feel for sir Alex sitting there and seeing such a pathetic football from the club. It's time for Mourinho to go.

Manchester United are going into a dark tunnel 8 points away from the lead after 6 rounds .. It is difficult to explain to and it's creating a lot of rumors about them this draw was their worst game of the season Sometimes big teams don't play that well but gets their three points but they had them in their hands and waisted it so they remain with only one clean sheets from their 6 league matches. While
Liverpool look like an ideal team that they have never experienced in recent years. But the title requires continuity getting it will be priority for them.

Both Manchester are going to win
Cardiff is poor team if City will not win than Guardiola will have trouble to solve
United is playing much better then in first games i think they will continue
Spurs to win
In a case of Liverpool we can only bet when LFC will finally lost first points
His coming game will be good opportunity for Salah to comeback on scoring way
Watford will be most interesting i think

Man Utd haven't exactly had a challenging start, either. The only big team they've faced so far has been Spurs, where they got humped 3-0. They've beaten Leicester, Burnley and Watford, drawn to Wolves and lost to Spurs and Brighton. If they continue playing like this, they will be very lucky to get a top 4 finish. How long do they let Mou stay - whatever he's doing, it clearly isn't working.

Yeah, i'm afraid manchester united will lose when it comes with other big teams like chelsea, man city and liverpool. I guess this season will be the last season for mourinho.

I think Man United has to go thru the same thing Liverpool went thru:  Domination followed by years and years of 'finding itself' (if that makes sense, cos the club is at a loss for answers), and rebuilding the club post Fergie.

But if they could win the CL this season out of luck and some belief like Chelsea did under RDM, we could at least see a glimpse of their former greatness.  I feel sorry for the United fans tbh.  I mean the real ones who go out there at their matches away, those who would bash heads for their club, those who sing United songs like they were in church...

I couple of losses and draw at the start of the season aren't enough reasons to sack Mou so I think Man Utd will keep him around until they're actually in a bad spot (like middle of the table). Same thing I said about Poch a few posts above apply here as well, you simply don't have top managers looking for a job, let alone to take over a big team like Manchester United.

There are some rumours about Man Utd getting interested in Zidana...IMO i don't think Zizou is ready to be the manager, one thing is Real Madrid, where he had all the support in the world from the fans, the players, and board of directors, and most importantly, the president Florentino Perez, another different thing is Manchester United, where he will start from 0 (I don't even think Zidane knows how to speak in english lol) without having the massive support and trust from the people around him.

As long as the team doesn't start a losing streak or doesn't do well in the Champions League, Mou will stay. The only reason why they would sack him would be because of some internal issues with the board of directors or with Ed Woodward, otherwise, he'll stay. I consider Mou a top manager, and I believe sooner or later he will fix things up.

^  Even if the Zidane rumor was true, I don't think it's gonna be the right move.  They need to swallow the bitter pill and realize that it's gonna be hard years ahead and rebuild.

But if they really wanted their success to continue post Fergie, then they shouldn't have made Moyes as SAF's replacement (then LVG after him)...  In hindsight, they should have gone for Pep (after his hear long sabbatical) and only Pep imo.

[buwaytress]

Didn't watch the game, but looks like the Hammers parked the bus and got a point from Chelski! 29% possession and registering 1 shot on target vs 7.

Liverpool top of the league after 6 games, this I have never seen, not with CCity and the Blues nipping at the heels with huge goal differences!

Lost a bet on Chelsea but well worth the result. And now Carabo Cup, will we see Fabinho start his first game? Klopp should still be fielding a strong team even if not all are first choice starters... Maybe Moreno at least gets some game time, poor Robbo needs a break.

Happy times, gotta make the most of it, ya LFC?

next  week big match
liverpool must play away in chelsea, i hope liverpol still win
continue perfect match in early season

[slaman29]

What a weekend for everyone. United frustrating, Chelsea frustrated. Liverpool make history. Burnley get first win.

I don't think many people predicted Chelsea to draw and even fewer predicted scoreless, which is for me excellent news because it boosts West Ham's chances and gives some confidence to Pellegrini.

Stupid headlines when I saw something in the news feed I thought Pocchetino was getting sacked haha, turns out he was just saying he could face being fired if they lose to Brighton. But if that really happens then we can confirm Tottenham have a really shit board of directors (we are only thinking it not yet confirming it).

Which headlines?  Can you post them?  And I don't think he 'could' get the sack even if they lose vs Brighton.  They need Poch...  Without him they'd be in football limbo...  Again.  Like they were under Redknapp, AVB and even before those two.

By headlines he probably means some idiot he saw post some baseless speculation somewhere. Wish people would stop calling or speculating for managers to be sacked after they lose a couple of games. Poch is going nowhere win or lose their next game. Spurs could easily win the league within a couple of years and Poch is probably the man to do it with them.

The headlines something like players react to shock announcement from boss. And highlighted the quote of where he said something like maybe he has a week, or something like that. So I thought he announced resignation, but he was just out of context quoted. Google gives me stupid headlines.

Well i think it's because of the hectic schedule, chelsea went to Greece and back play again on premier league in 3 days. Liverpool on the top 1 right now because of that. This season is gonna be good man, Arsenal back to a good track and top 5 will be hard to predict.

I agree with you; Zidane it not the right move immediately if anything. People keep forgetting that Zidane was give an already well prepared team to manage, with quality players all around the pitch at his disposal, he wasn't made to build a team. It is the same issue with Mourinho, this is the first time he is actually trying to build an actual team - and this is very difficult. All his other success the team was was more or less built, he just needed to add a few more tweaks. For Man united, the board Ed Woodword are not prepared to spend heavy like Real Madrid or Chelsea in the early days of Abramovich, so it is a tough job.

Manchester United are seventh in the table and only six points behind second place. Losing to Spurs and drawing with Wolves isn't a sackable offense for Jose. Wolves have been playing pretty good and also even drew against Manchester City. City lost at home to Lyon. Maybe Pep should be sacked soon as well? Manchester United will be lucky to get top four because there's so many great teams now. Spurs and Liverpool weren't even in the running five years ago and a bit before that even City were just an average team. Times change but this isn't Jose's fault, but if he does ever go I hope they do actually get Zidane because I'd bet money he won't do much better or win them much if anything before they sack him.

Most managers would have achieved greatness taking over Real when Zidane did. Let's not forget Fergie took years to build a title winning team. People are also forgetting that there's just so many great teams in the Premier League now so that's why United are struggling, especially when I'd put City and Liverpool up there with the best teams on the planet right now.

I don’t really care about the Carabao Cup but I really want to see us beat them at Stamford Bridge at the weekend. Got a feeling we might draw that but hopefully I’m wrong.

Happy to see Salah striking again.He was playing good game also
Shaqiri  is booming .Klopp really knows how to get best from his players .Now Shaqiri will be great support during that hard season

LFC and City my hard favs to win title i hope LFC will do that

Man United will not replace coach during season if Man United result will be very poor than maybe we can have coach change during winter break.There is not tragedy yet

Mourinho just needs to grow up and realize that his tactics and man management are not working for the current players he has. He may have been able to boss around guys like John Terry Lampard in the past or even Zlatan, but these are strong characters who can be shaped and truly professional. Now you have Sanchez and Pogba, who are sort of divas. I mean the piano playing of Sanchez and Pogba just being a ridiculous kid sometimes.

It's not his fault Mou but he has to evolve.

Anyway who wants to bet on Derby winning or drawing? Draw or Derby win double chance x4 easy

Mignolet and Lovran will replace Allison and Van Dijk in coming Liverpool game against Chelsea

A little of topic.I have been reading that Man United financial situation is not very bright
Man had record revenue over 500 mln pounds but 487 mln pound debt is remaining

There are early birds saying that  Abramovich will sell Chelsea.Price is 3 bln pounds

It is because he has problem to extend his visa
