Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Strongkored]

I'm really enjoying this year's premier league. The return of C. Ronaldo to Manchester United made it so interested to many this year

I always enjoy wathcing matches in the EPL, even though Ronaldo doesn't play in it because in my opinion the EPL is the most interesting league and in recent years there has been no dominance of champions, indeed City have won more but almost all titles are determined until the last game so it really doesn't there is dominance.

As for Adama Traore, as far as I know Tottenham were hoping to sign him before the transfer window closes. And Wolves were demanding an offer around €40m. But Tottenham didn't want to pay that much and the deal already ended before it started. But it is good that Tottenham didn't get him. Adama Traore is not that good now. He should practise a lot on finishing. He is the worst when it comes to shooting but he is still insisting on playing selfish in some cases.

Different manager have their different philosophy and style of play. Maybe Nuno Espirito Santo might a defensive minded manager. But i see what he is trying to do with the Tottenham team. Unarguably Adama Traore flourished under Nuno Espirito at Wolves, scoring about 10 goals and provided 18 assists. He is somehow about average for though. His performance for wolves made him travelled with the Spanish team during the 2020 Euros. Personally, I don't see any need bringing Adama from Wolves into the team when you still have similar players like him in the team. Steven Bergwijn and Lucas Moura are players with experience and can replicate perfectly what Adama will display on the pitch. Maybe not defensively but they are nice players. Signing Adama would have been waste of money though.

I assume that everyone is going to start enjoying the season after Ronaldo's joining to Manchester Utd. He was injured for around a week but he is OK now. I can't wait to watch him after the national break. I don't know whether Solskjaer would prefer him in the starting eleven right away. But I would really like to see him playing from the start of the game. It is going to be really emotional for the fans.

Maybe what makes the EPL even more interesting is the many star players who play in the EPL, because most EPL teams have good finances.
So teams in the EPL can afford to buy a lot of star players, so if Ronaldo doesn't play in the EPL, the EPL is still the most attractive European league.
I agree that the competition for big teams in the EPL is very interesting, especially this season, several big teams have bought new players,
It is very difficult to predict who will win the EPL trophy this season.

They kind of repeat what they have been doing for several years now. I can't remember when they had a good start into the last season during the last years. And the top teams are delivering more or less so it will be an almost impossible task for Arsenal to get traction in the ranking again. New year, same problems. They are just not competitive enough anymore to keep up with Liverpool, City etc. I guess Manchester United will have a decent season as well, a little bit of a moral push due to Ronaldo's transfer. Arsenal can be happy if they make it top 8.

I'm not that pessimistic They started the season badly, but they are just at the beginning of the road. The league is pretty long and a lot can change.
It will be good if they can find enough chances and score a few goals in this match. The self-confidence of the team drops a lot, they do not have a chance to survive by defending.
Their opponents have been strong in the matches they have played so far

[AakZaki]

Ronaldo is one of the best players in the history of Manchester United and he will be a role model for many young Manchester United players. The age factor can affect many things for him including being a goalscorer, but he can still do well if he gets the chance.

~snip~

Actually I was really looking forward to his arrival and playing in the League. Is he still able to play the hard fast that is the hallmark of the EPL. He's getting old and I'm curious about that. The arrival of ronaldo will bring a spectator magnet to the Premier League. In addition, the sale of team jerseys with Ronaldo's name will make the club's income even bigger. I think it's not only because the players need to win but the business is the main thing.

Is there any doubt that Solskjaer wouldn't "prefer" Cristiano Ronaldo, if he is good to go, in the starting eleven? He is CR7 and I don't believe that he needs something new to learn or to adapt. Besides, which coach will have available in his roster Ronaldo and will not use him asap? The only thing that can keep him out of the Man Utd squad is only injuries and cards.

[Welsh]

I'll be honest I was quietly confident that Liverpool would take the league this season again. However, the lack of reinforcements, and the fact that we still look like we're going to struggle to score again this season, I think we'll be aiming for a top 4 finish again. I think on the off chance we can challenge for the title, but that is highly dependent on whether or not we keep everyone fit as our depth is rather thin. For example, if Firmino isn't back to his best, and scoring goals, same as Mane then we lack sufficient depth. If they get injured we have Origi on the bench, and Jota. Jota is fine, but Origi hasn't been Liverpool quality for a while now.

Even if he is Ronaldo, it doesn't mean he doesn't have to adapt to the players around him. Although, he comes at a time where the players are off for international break, and I do believe some clubs are preventing players from leaving the country, and playing international games. If that is the case, he might have a lot of time in between now, and when the next game is to adapt.

In addition to what Ronaldo brings into Manchester United team, a new mentality of winning into the team,drive and ambition.
I guess whole have wished to play alongside him been one of the best over the past ten years.
He'll definitely score goals for Manchester United,17 plus goals and ahead this season.

Yes, even in his last match at Juventus about Ronaldo on the bench after I read several news portals, it was Ronaldo's own request to the coach Allegri. But apart from that, if suddenly Ronaldo is not included in the starting eleven then I predict there will be a conflict between Ronaldo and the coach. Maybe I'm the only one who's still not convinced that Ronaldo's return to Manchester United is the right choice because at his age, I'm sure that his movement will decline slightly. Also, with a tight guard from the opposing team's defense at least it will be very difficult for Ronaldo to play well. Although indeed, I still believe when there is a chance to finish, then Ronaldo will still do well but in the movement during the game I still doubt it.

Not only that, the Arsenal coach is doing badly. Their management is not very good. They can't pick the right players for the team even if they spend a lot of money. I do not expect a good performance from Arsenal despite the dismissal of Arteta until their management changes.

There is nothing left for them. Arsenal playing in the Championship next season would be interesting! It is shocking that Arteta still has a job. Arteta destroys players. As a result of their contributions, the club has reached unprecedented heights. An artificial process and weak management. The Arsenal squad is in disarray with no leadership. Such a situation is very disappointing for a club like Arsenal. At Arsenal, things must change.

Not that the Arsenal team is too bad. Arteta is failing to coordinate players. He is not able to build good bonding among the players. Moreover, their strategy also needs to change. If Arsenal fail to win against Norwich, they will have to sack Arteta and appoint a new coach.

I totally agree with you on this. Arsenal are still spending an important amount of money on new players but still they are terrible at choosing the right players. They still haven't understood that they need at least a few top players to make this team stronger. Arsenal can fight for the upper places in only this way. They should spend a lot of money at least for once to get better.

Yes, that's right. Arsenal spends a lot of money. But they don’t spend money in the right place, or they can’t spend money in the right place. He recruits players who can't adapt to them. Arsenal should change the coach. And investing more money in the team next season to bring in talented players.

Top players will not come to Arsenal; they need to at least create a battle-worthy team of average players and take prizes, and then top players can come to the team, as Atletico Madrid did in its time. But for this you need a good coach, but alas, Arsenal does not yet have this in mind.

I think it will be better for them to use their old tactics or the actual Dortmund one, which is find young talented players and make them stars, it will make the team stable and competitive. Arsenal won't be able to spend like City, ManU or PSG so better to use the old way..
I see the boys talking about CR7 joining the next game, imo it is very possible, with 6 games in 20 days, rotating the team will be the case and most likely CR7 will be present in most of it and full time in some.

Yeah really true with your opinion, almost top player reject all transfer from Arsenal from Sergio Ramos and the last Lutaro Martinez not interested any more to play with Arsenal. I don't why Arsenal last two season not interested club again, after leaving by Wenger Arsenal is not favorite again to be champion and always failed back to big four again, very sad what happen with Arsenal right now.

I don't think that Ronaldo will have any problems with adaptation ... at least for the reason that almost half of the Premier League players play for the Portuguese national team. In addition, even without this, he is a graduate of the harsh European league in which he spent half of his life, a league that is almost as dynamic as the Premier League.

Yeah,, he'll know enough about how tough the Premier League is but it won't take him long to adapt because the players will probably be a little different in the old way so it won't be difficult for him to play at Manchester United.
Playing in the European league is certainly very tight so Ronaldo will understand it, this is also a hard worker where in every league you have to be able to adapt so as not to be stiff, but I believe this Ronaldo will not take long, he is a talented player so he will adapt to the game which exists.

[oHnK]

After seeing the news of Ronaldo's transfer to Man United, my wild mind said that Man City would be the winners of this league.  After previously competing closely with City, it is time for MU to become champions in this league, especially since they have brought in talented players like CR to support progress at the club.  But this is just a wild thought, despite the fact that CR is definitely still adapting to his new club.

That’s exactly what I said before the season started.  And it also comes down to Klopp wanting his teams to play the gegenpressing style of play and then running hard.  It puts a toll on the players...  Esp to the ones under him from when he took over.  They’re prolly thinking they could get paid more for less work.  Lol.

Edit:  I think Chelsea is more likely to challenge for the league.  That’d why I made that bet with Trofo.  And then there’s United after Ronaldo came in.  Meh.
