Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[joniboini]

Everton spend a lot to hire Ancelotti, I heard he'll get around  12 million pounds a year! It means he gonna be third highest manager paid in premier league    , they are really serious this time with Ancelotti .

That's an effing lot of money. Where do their money come from? Are Everton merch selling that well?

Can't believe they agree to that terms, considering Ancelotti might flop in his first season. Why not agree for one year and then revise the contract later on?

I also heard that Carlo brought his son and others to Everton. Some media even call it a 'dynasty'.

Why is no one really giving Duncan a chance?

They’re near the bottom of the table, it’s not really time to experiment. I guess they want the real deal, a proven manager. They can’t afford to get relegated most likely.

He can't be making 12 million right? Where did you read that, that is waaaaaaay too much money for Everton to pay for a manager. I know everything starts with the manager and you can give me Liverpool right now and I wouldn't manage to make them be in top 10 let alone champions so paying managers a fair wage is very important but 12 MILLION POUNDS A YEAR? That sounds insane to me.

Everton must be really sick and tired of the way they have been playing for the past few seasons and decided to turn the ship around, lets hope that players would actually want to go there and they could actually make players listen to Ancelotti so that they could build a strategy that changes things around. I mean Leicester was a relegation team and become champions, so I don't see why Everton can't do the same (even if not champions, at least a decent top half team).

Big derby Barcelona vs. Real Madrid, and they share first place with same points both.
Anything can happen in matches like this, and I don't understand so silly low odds for home win....

Dude, this is the English Premier League thread. You should really have posted this here -

Everton faces Leicester for the EFL cup today.
Leicester is on fire with good consecutive results so far. I think that some of the reserves are going to play in this match so I expect a draw between those team and Leicester is going to get the qualification in a second game.

Sorry. My mistake.
I was doing some multitasking... and looked several games at the same time.

Ancelotti must be going there short term surely. I read somewhere it’s a 6 month deal with a 4 million GBP bonus if he saves them from relegation.

We’re talking about a multiple title winning coach here, surely he doesn’t want to settle there long term.

Everton does not have the players that will bring out the best from Anceloti,  lots of their players are average players,  that's why he is going there on short term,  I'm very sure if it was to be a club like Manchester City or Chelsea he won't be planning on going short term

Manchester derby = perfect for LFC
Two intense games for City, they will likely reach the final too so another game. Everything is working out for us this season.

Leicester in the semi finals too

EFL Cup semi-finals:

I predict a Manchester City vs Leicester City final. United defeated City once this season already, but watching the game, City were for me, the stronger team. And would be again in this tie.
Aston Villa had a glorious victory against the European champions, but Leicester will not underrate them, and this is the last step to the final, there would be no question of whether or not they'll take it seriously. It's their most realistic chance at a title at the moment.

of course in this match, Man City will revenge their defeat during the EPL match. but United also has big ambitions because this is one of Solskjaer's chances to win a title this season because it's impossible for United to win EPL title, so their chance now is to win the EFL, one of the championships they still have the chance to win.

Next week Manchester city will face Leicester will be stronger than both teams so it is not easy for Manchester City to beat Leicester, if you lose then Manchester will be left behind more points so this is an important victory for Menchester on home turf.
Manchester United will fight against Watford will be easier to move again to the top of the table.

Do you mean Liverpool B? They play kids against Villa, of course it's going to be a different game against Leicester.

of course in this match, Man City will revenge their defeat during the EPL match.

They need to find a way to counter United 'parking bus and counter' strategy first. Fixing their passing errors is a must for them to win it.

From the last 6 matches of the two teams. Leicester City was only able to win once against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in the 2016 season where Leichester City was the EPL champion and after that Manchester City always won at home. and I think City will extend their win against Leicester

They need to find a way to counter United 'parking bus and counter' strategy first. Fixing their passing errors is a must for them to win it.

Actually they just need to find a way how Sterling can pass the defense of Wan Bissaka lol

Man City vs Leicester this weekend, I really don’t think Man City will slip up in this one. City are going to make Leicester look like the pretenders they are, the party is over for Leicester.

Arteta to Arsenal almost done deal https://twitter.com/david_ornstein/status/1207635490704437248

Well, Arsenal's future looks very bleak. The board have completely lost it, there's no way there isn't a single manager out there looking for a job that has some experience being a head coach. Arteta will most likely be Ljungberg 2.0 but with a bit more tactical knowledge thanks to Pep teaching him a thing or two.

I guess we're going back to the era before Wenger then? i don't really know what happened before him, were Arsenal just another small london club? too lazy to look it up right now

they won't, but draw is possible.

manchester city with kevin de bruyne on fire and also gabriel jesus has found his best form after the hattrick he made, manchester city should not losing points anymore , but everybody know that if manchester city beat leicester and liverpool continue the winning , well the tittle race will become much more easier for liverpool as the gap getting far far away from both the second and third place.

this game will be a key to decide how high liverpool chance to win english premier league.
and i am pretty sure liverpool prioritized to win english premier league than any other competition , no more slip for liverpool.

I don't think Leicester are pretenders this season, to be second on the table and four points above city(even if city wins they still stay second)is not so easy to accomplish when you look at how much they spend on players, and how much those beneath them spends on their own players.

City are slowing crawling back into form and if they win this game it'll give them more boost. Even if there are hopes of them(city)chasing Liverpool, they need to be the ones in second place and it's Leicester standing in their way.

[watergold]

Manchester was able to win this match and different points from Leicester will be worked out by Man city. With this victory Manchester will continue to push them to second place in the EPL table from the statistics are also very different so Manchester will have a very important seed at a later time.

I'm not really sure this match will go easily. Both teams have just played in the EFL and this will definitely drain their energy. Manchester City only rested part of their defense at that time. Similarly Leicester play until extra time.
