Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Miles2006]

Expecting an easy win as well, but it didn't turn out that way. I've to give credit to Man United's goalkeeper Onana for keeping them to a draw. The game was hard to watch, a dreadful match between two struggling sides on the day. Despite having plenty of chances, Liverpool couldn't secure the win, resulting in a 0-0 draw against Man United at Anfield. It's not the result Liverpool wanted, but they'll move forward to the next game against the Hammers.

Liverpool next game is Arsenal and Manchester United facing Westham United next. Liverpool was denied winning due to the heavy defendlines formed this season. The 0-0 scoresheet is big motivation for Manchester United to do better in coming games. André Onana deserves some flowers because Liverpool did their best to score but couldn't maintain this level of football. There was no hope for the Red Devils until Onana begins to make brilliant saves that aided Manchester United draw points at the end of the game.

Manchester united may not be in solid form but I commend their efforts in their last game against Liverpool because it wasn't really easy for united to hold Liverpool to draw in that match as Liverpool tried their possible best to secure a win in that game but Manchester United were so determined not to lose that match so Manchester United team work in that game is applaudable, should they continue in same spirit in their next match then they will win their opponent Westham united.

Almost everyone underrated Manchester united I personally joined the team saying Liverpool will definitely win the match and surprising united came prepared, from my observation both team really struggled to score but it wasn't easy for both team, I could not believe my eyes with what united did most especially the defence, Onana with the style I actually love what Onana did and after the match no one could even talk about Onana, I believe if Onana keep improving he'll do more better and same goes with the united boys, Liverpool tried especially the last minutes and the impact Eliot put into the final time was good, Eliot could have spoil the jubilation of Arsenal but the time was not just enough. Now Arsenal need to prepare cause Arsenal vs United will not be easy tho

Ten Hag made some mistakes in the last transfer window, which is one of the causes of their current problem. I hope he will be able to make corrections when the transfer window is open. Let’s see the players that he will be signing into the club and how they will have a positive impact on the team’s performance. Since pressure is really on ten hag currently, I am sure he will be very careful when making any new signings, he won’t be signing players anyhow.

He seemed to be in a hurry last year when he wanted to bring in several players. especially when the decision to take a new goalkeeper was quite controversial. Not only that, but also several other players who seem to be just wasting their money. And in the end it didn't work out well. Because of this, Man United's condition up to now is really worrying, because the squad's condition is also like that. Yes, hopefully Ten Hag will be able to see the right position for his players and also the purchase of new players later.

Actually, there are several big rumors in the transfer market. And it is rumored that several big EPL players are leaving or are trying to be approached by other teams. Like Man City, it seems they are starting to worry about several clubs, especially Real Madrid, who are still interested in Haaland. Looks like there's quite a frama later.

Man Utd are a low quality team, they put everybody behind the ball at Anfield. It’s a tactic that relegation battlers employ. Liverpool weren’t at their best but still far more likely to win than Man Utd.

We must improve vs Arsenal at the weekend but there will be more space to play as Arsenal don’t park the bus.

Hey if it's not like that then Manchester United will not get points in this match
They are well aware of last season when they lost by even more than half a dozen goals which made them have to think again to make an open game with Liverpool so that if they still want points then inevitably they have to try a defensive scheme even though sometimes this is not too liked because it seems cowardly but still this will definitely be done considering the quality of Liverpool's attacks is much better and their performance is also currently still above Manchester United.
If it's not like that then Manchester United is not impossible to lose back points especially with a scheme like this there are several opportunities even quite dangerous fortunately Onana can display a pretty good performance with some saves he did in this match.

But on the other hand still this 1 point result is a real loss for Liverpool because however when looking at the probability before the match the chance for 3 points is very visible.

I always trust Manchester United when plying against big teams since they defeated Chelsea, now they get a points against Liverpool which was an interesting game for Arsenal fans because Arsenal now top the league with one point ahead of Liverpool.
But Liverpool were the best team in the match, they created more chances than United, they dominated the game; unfortunately they couldn’t utilize any of the chances they created even though they have the best attackers in the match, and Manchester United’s defense are not capable of controlling them, but we’re lucky to manage them in that match.

They know the condition of the team, so Man United did not come out much pressing Liverpool players. They are more waiting for mistakes and counterattacking. Looking at the statistics of the match it was also proven, Liverpool had the ball and even made very many attempts at kicks on goal. This was the best result, they were able to hold a draw there was an improvement in quality. I think Ten Hag is also thinking about the future of being a coach at Man United. This is because many rumors are getting bored with how to train him.

Of course Liverpool tried their best to score a goal against Manchester United, but everything failed because Manchester United's defense was very good. Manchester United really wanted to steal points at Anfield and they did it perfectly, but I admit Liverpool performed well at home.

Liverpool's failure to win at home made Arsenal take over the standings. Liverpool have a chance to take it back in another tight match against Arsenal, but I don't think Arsenal will let it go so easily. The two best managers will clash tactically, but Arteta looks like he will do something to maintain his team's top position. If Liverpool and Arsenal draw, Aston Villa and Manchester City will take advantage of the profits. If Liverpool and Arsenal draw, then Aston Villa will lead the standings for longer if they manage to win their home match against Sheffield.

Ten Hag probably didn't expect to win the match, he only targets for a draw. That's why Man United play defensively in Anfield, they tried to minimize the chance for Liverpool players to score goals. However, applying this tactic is no longer popular in the modern football. It is because this tactic even makes the opponent to have many chances for shot attempts. It really happened in the match Liverpool vs Man United, Liverpool could make 34 shot attempts. Luckily, Man United could defense well, there are no goals in the match.

Well, if we look at the stats, it is true that Man United was like a small team in EPL. It is a bit shameful that a big team like Man United applied a defensive tactic in the match.

We must improve vs Arsenal at the weekend but there will be more space to play as Arsenal don’t park the bus.

Next match, Liverpool will play against Arsenal in Anfield. This match should be more interesting than the match against Man United. But Liverpool can expect to play very offensively in this match. Arsenal is also a great team in attacking, they have many quality attackers.

Yes Manchester United did apply a defensive tactics against Liverpool, but i don’t see that to be disgraceful if you ask me. They we’re scenarios were you analyze matches me and then you look at how strong your team is and then make a tactical plan on that. Manchester United has never won at Anfield since 2018 and the last time they played there was an humiliating 7-0 defeats. This season again Liverpool hasn’t lost a match at their home, so I don’t see it that way. This draw will moralize the team to build on it. Had they lost bad again as you all predicted I think it will be good for their season. Even this so called Liverpool were once parking the bus against United when united were ruling the land

He seemed to be in a hurry last year when he wanted to bring in several players. especially when the decision to take a new goalkeeper was quite controversial.

I don’t really know maybe Ten Hag was having some personal problem with De Gea, I was surprise just to see him send De Gea way from the club even as we know that De Gea wanted to stay in the club, Ten Hag should have to allowed De Gea stay in the club, leaving him as a second goalkeeper won’t really be bad, De Gea made some mistakes last season, but he still performed well in most matches, De Gea is just better than their current goal keeper which Ten Hag signed, if De Gea haven’t left the club, then he will be able to replace him with Onana since his performance is really impressive, he is performing below people’s expectation, the hype was just too much when he was about to be signed.

It wouldn't be the first time that ten Hag has a problem with a player This guy has problems with players all the time and that's why he is a big burden to the club. I am not sure why he is still around since he is literally destroying Manchester United slowly but surely. No way they are going to be around in the Champions League next season. They also missed the Europa League and it couldn't get worse than that. They are not playing against the relegation zone, sure, but this has nothing to do with Manchester United. They are not even average anymore and every time I thought they might turn things around, they failed even harder. The last game in the Champions League was proof enough.

Yeah what you said is true but however Manchester United is known for there inconsistency because there are times we would feel that they will likely lose some certain match but at the end you will see them either wining the team or holding a draw to the club, so that was why everybody was surprised with the outcome of the match because considering the performance of Manchester United no body would have believed they will hold Liverpool to a draw on that match.

However it was quite unfortunate that Liverpool plan did not go the way they expected it to be, because there mindset was that they can easily win Manchester United as they are not much in a good form this period, so they wanted to use the opportunity to use Manchester United and secure the first position on the premier League table but there plan did not work.

A tough game for Erik Ten Hag and he still manages to survived the long run, sometimes I wonder how he do it because he's not even up to the level of Jurgen Klopp when it comes to coaching, Erik Ten Hag is consider one of these random mediocre coaches in EPL apart from his players who do their best to fit in. A defensive strategy was the only solid path that stopped Liverpool from netting a goal for the first time this season at Anfield. They werre dissapointed to draw points with Manchester United who was not in good form, they played like average club and couldn't hold the ball for possible range of 3 minutes without losing it to the hosts.

[Smartvirus]

Next match, Liverpool will play against Arsenal in Anfield. This match should be more interesting than the match against Man United. But Liverpool can expect to play very offensively in this match. Arsenal is also a great team in attacking, they have many quality attackers.

It’s sure to be an interesting and anticipated watch as they both first and second place of the table teams in them would look to steal points off each other and any lose would be badly escalated in pushing the loser further down the table but, I don’t have so much hopes on any thing great from Liverpool. Non the less, the importance of this game could steam something great but, them having to play from a home side and not beat a team like Manchester United, a team Bournemouth had no trouble winning 3:0, I just don’t know what to expect when they face Arsenal who would be more than eager to to extend there just secured lead on the table as top gunners. It just might be yet another disappointment for Klopp, haven’t failed to take advantage of the Manchester United game to maintain there lead, perhaps they could do Aston Villa a favorite and share points to have Aston Villa top the table.

Things are just getting worse for Manchester City in time. They lost points in another match and they were able to win only one time in their last five matches in the Premier League. This is a serious problem for their championship chance this season as well. Because while they are this bad the teams above them are benefiting from this situation nicely.

De Bruyne is said to be back from his lasting injury finally. This is really good news for Manchester City as he has been one of the most critical players for the team. Let's see how much impact he will make from now on.

We can go on to say that Manchester United's performance is bad but they were able to stop Liverpool three straight wins to a draw. That's commendable of them because nobody thought that the Liverpool team which is in its best form can't possibly break Manchester United's defense by scoring a single goal against Manchester United after playing at home.
What Ten Hag needs to work on in Manchester United, is to fix their defense and frontline. And they will bounce back

Manchester City might no make it to significant positions on the EPL table this season, because watching their performance in matches, they're crumbling and that's contrary to the City we have witnessed in the past decades. Pep Guardiola have no options than work on his club and ensure he fixed his issues within the estimated period only if he values for the improvement of his outstanding squad. I believe the club's lacks the presence of Kelvin De Bruyne, we know how valuable he is and how he has growned to become a very key part in Pep Guardiola project for Manchester City.

The right words were used here haha. Manchester united is a poorly coached low quality side; majority of the players are not world class and the coach is terrible at his job too; underusing the players and failing to get the best of the squads. Embarassed out of the carabao cup and champions league too.

An humbling against West Ham in london and a sack to ten hag will make many fans excited tbh

[Mayor of ogba]

Liverpool didn't expect their match with Manchester United at Anfield would end as a draw match because of Manchester United's low performance this season, and they won Manchester United heavily last season at Anfield.

Manchester United knew that if they came out to attack in that game they were going to lose, thus Ten Hag had to respect Liverpool and set up to defend for most of the game. It was not a bad result for both sides, but Liverpool would be the more disappointing of the two teams, United would be happy with the one point.

Arsenal are back on the summit, five points above the defending champions Manchester City; both Liverpool and Arsenal would know that they cannot write City off and if they want to have a chance of winning the league, they have to pull clear of the City now that they are wobbling. City are still very much in the title race and they remain my favorite candidate for the EPL title.

That is football for you. When you meet a stronger opponent you have to play them with tactics that will help you win the match or go home with a point. Manchester United did not play defensive football all through the second half, which was why Manchester United was able to get a draw at Anfield. Also, Manchester United had an opportunity to take the lead against Liverpool, but Garnacho failed to score.

Manchester city kinda a different team since de bruyne was not playing again as starting line up due to the injury. Relying upon rodri was not enough in helping manchester city to play even better than before. I must be honest that if manchester city can't play without rodri.
Rodri has become a very important player owned by the club and this is the key point owned by manchester city. Having rodri in the lineup was strengthening the attacking line. The game play of manchester city was very complicated once the club played without rodri.
Manchester city losses ability to create creative attack against its opponent which in result manchester city was always losing points regularly. Pep needs to find someone who is capable enough to play like de bruyne.
I hope city will consider olmo during the winter transfer season. Having a good attacking midfielder was a must for manchester city coz we have seen how big the contribution from de bruyne.
he was also helping haaland to create a new record last season. I hope de bruyne will comeback again soon.

Overall, of course, the strategy used by Ten Heg in the match against Liverpool does not look like Man United has high honors as a quality club. They formed a defense like an army that was afraid of enemy attacks and from the start had no confidence in winning. Well it's been a bad season for Man United. But I don't want to think that all the players there are bad. But I prefer to blame how the coach at this club is completely unable to bring out the potential of every player in the club. I know Bruno Fernandes is one of the best from the Portuguese national team along with Felix (current Barcelona player). But when Bruno Fernandes played at Man United he really became like a different player. He always makes decisions hesitantly as if full of worry. I don't know how Ten Heg puts pressure on the players on the pitch. But this also happens to almost all Man United players. Rashford, who was very sharp last season, has even become blunt this season. There is clearly something strange about the managerial approach at this club. All the players seemed to be playing under pressure. They really weren't themselves. As for Liverpool, I can't say much about them. One word is enough for them this season. Amazing !

What differentiates Erik Ten Hak in his first season coaching Manchester United from his second season at Old Trafford is the lack of cooperation between the players so we have an idea of why Manchester United has so far failed to take advantage of all the conditions. According to my observations, Manchester United players do not have hardworking qualities and tend to be lazy, so there are some players who seem immature and too selfish. A number of players need to learn from Maguire how he tried to get out of pressure even though he was not liked by many fans and thanks to hard work he managed to return to his best performance.

Erik Ten Hak also failed to maximize a number of players because he gave too much trust to players who made mistakes. Erik Ten Hak needs to work hard if he wants to bring Manchester United to success because this club has a long history and will always be in the spotlight when the coach is unable to handle it.
