Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[piebeyb]

Arsenal will be letting go of some fringe players in their squad during this transfer window to pave way for new players that the club will buy.They have some old names they are looking forward to selling,and those players are: Elnely,Cedric, Nketiah,Nelson and co.These players are players who doesn't add much to the squad,and as for Nelson,he was so important to Arsenal in the previous season they finished second,scoring some late winning and decisive goals,which made Arsenal felt he had something so special to offer,but he didn't show much of his abilities in the last campaign,making Arsenal think of selling him.I think selling them will be the best decision,and bringing new quality players who can produce something special from the bench will be much better.

Arteta has had many failures in the race for the EPL title, of course he must be thinking about replacing some of the old players with new players, he doesn't want to experience failure again next season, that's why it's important for Arteta to re-evaluate the main squad at Arsenal because he has to be successful in next season and don't have to continue to be runner up in the EPL, I believe Arteta can fix everything and next season it looks like the EPL will be his, he will fully compete with Manchester City in the race for the EPL title.

Arteta has to get and keep a lot of players who are quite productive because without productive players this team will have difficulty competing again next season. I think all the teams in the EPL have definitely made major changes to strengthen the team so they can compete next season, Arsenal Don't miss out on carrying out this reshuffle, there are many players who might have to replace them with new players, of course players who are really productive in scoring goals or guarding the goal well against every opponent's attack.

Winning the FA Cup trophy is the only achievement of Manchester United this season, this season was very bad for  Manchester United but when they played against big teams, they took their games seriously.

I wouldn't say Manchester United is stronger whenever they meet bigger teams because they have actually lose to so many bigger teams on this season including Manchester City because Manchester City has always been the favourite to win on all there meeting but it was just fortunate for Manchester United on that match that Manchester City was not in a good form and maybe they were still overwhelmed with there premier League trophy they won that made them got distracted, and even Arsenal also win Manchester United on this season that is why I don't think that Manchester United is always stronger whenever they meet bigger team, however the club that has that record is Chelsea.

I just want to remind you that the FA Cup final was played a week or two after the Premier League ended, I don't know for sure but in essence, the FA Cup final match was played after the Premier League finished. Therefore, the match in the FA Cup really meant that the team was in a safe situation and condition or was not distracted by other competitions, so that they could focus more on the final match of the FA Cup. So, if you say that Manchester City is distracted by other competitions then that is not correct because after all, Manchester City also plans to celebrate winning a trophy this season after they get the FA Cup trophy.

But in reality, Manchester City failed and only celebrated the Premier League trophy this season. Therefore, Manchester United still managed to achieve the best results this season by getting the FA Cup trophy, so Manchester United also got a ticket to play in the Europa League next season. Thus, I think Manchester United is not completely bad this season, because Manchester United still managed to end the season with good results.

I would not say that Arteta has failed in two years that he took over the club as manager. This is because he has always finished on second place on the table, and had almost win the league but due to some wrong decisions of his or injury on the players which made the trophy to be snatched by Manchester city from them. He learnt from his mistakes last two seasons by having reserve players on bench.

What surprised me was last since that he had every opportunity to win the league both due to his own wrong decision for not knowing the match that he should take as his priority to win, messed everything up. The players are good enough to bring the trophy home, and if he will be offloading some of them to bring in smarter and sharper ones, it will be a good advantage to the club next season.

In fact, if it wasn't Manchester United who made the offer to Tuchel, I think he would accept the job, but as we know, it's not easy to solve problems for two different teams and that will only create uncomfortable pressure from the coach's perspective. Therefore, Tuchel's decision was very correct and he can start again at any time if everything improves.

So many coaches are rumored to be close to Manchester United, even De Zerbi and Pochettino. I find it difficult to assess Manchester United's true desires because if they really want to, they should be able to give Erik ten Hag another chance and besides, the players don't seem to have any problems with this coach except Sancho. Management must understand that changing coaches will not solve the problem and the important thing is to provide equal opportunities for all parties involved.

If Tuchel could not reach an agreement with Manchester United, then they were negotiating, they simply could not reach agreement on the contract, and Tuchel has already put an end to this issue, he doesn't want to be the new Manchester United manager.

But regarding Pochettino, not everything is so clear, there are rumors that Alex Ferguson would like Pochettino to become the new coach of Manchester United. I liked the way Pochettino worked at Chelsea, he was in a difficult situation, but at the end of the season the team looked much better, he was simply not given time to continue working. Manchester United has great potential, and it seems to me that Pochettino would definitely be no worse than ten Hag.

The language barrier is only an unreasonable reason, English is the most commonly used language throughout the world, it is not that difficult to learn English if one has the desire to learn it. Ronaldo, who just came to the Arab league, is already able to master Arabic well, even though in the learning process, Arabic is more difficult than English.

He has wasted too many opportunities to manage new clubs, the Premier League should be a challenge for him after achieving success with Real Madrid in La Liga. The Premier League will become more competitive if he manages one of the clubs there because there will be comparable competitors for Guardiola. Zidane has missed too many offers that have come his way due to waiting to be proposed to by the team he wants, if it continues like this he will spend more of his time without managing any clubs.

It's not even about learning the language, he can just hire a translator, he's just a coach, not a player, so there will be no barrier at all.

He just avoid any inconsistent team like Manchester United, if he get an offer from Manchester City, I'm sure he will not reject it since we all know Manchester City will win Premier League since they have many high quality players, they can win without the coach.

Zidane isn't desperately need a job since he already own football team and he also endorse many brands.

For what do we speculate that is not related to the reason Zidane does not want to be the Coach of Any Club of EPL? If based on information if he does not want to do it for reasons he is not English, yes, that's it, let it be the reason. Maybe many people say that he can study or use translator, but not everyone wants it. And Zidane is not classified as someone who wants to be like that. His character is to convey something directly to his players without translators because it will be far more striking and right on what he said, from the selection of words, changes in facial expressions, expressions, words of words, intonation, and others. Zidane must have a reason for that. Because, communication is important, how about that, between the coach and the player directly. And even if there are other reasons and he doesn't want to express it, it's not there. So let him decide for himself where he will go to the coach and he doesn't go to EPL. Let it be.

Arsenal will be letting go of some fringe players in their squad during this transfer window to pave way for new players that the club will buy.They have some old names they are looking forward to selling,and those players are: Elnely,Cedric, Nketiah,Nelson and co.These players are players who doesn't add much to the squad,

Yes indeed, there are many players whose contracts will end this summer. And indeed, Arsenal have to sell several players to increase funds, to be one of the reasons.And certainly, Arsenal are pursuing some talented players who are felt to be helping to strengthen the Squad again in the season. Because, Akkan competition is getting more and more ketta. Arteta already has an ebbgaai plans and its target.

Hemm. In the end, we also learned that one of Arsenal's target, Sesko, had decided to stay at Leipzig. So, who is the next one who will be the most appropriate target of Arteta?

Zinedine Zidane has given his reasons for not coaching a team in the Premier League because of the language barrier and even though many people say it is just an excuse to refuse gently and Zinedine Zidane is waiting for the right team to coach and I think that's only natural because every coach He has his own reasons for the decisions he makes.
However, in terms of experience, Zinedine Zidane doesn't have much experience, he was only successful with Real Madrid, that's because when Zinedine Zidane was Real Madrid coach, the squad that Real Madrid had was good enough so Zinedine Zidane didn't have any problems.

Maybe it wasn't in Zidane plans to handle an EPL team, that's why he politely rejected the offer citing a language barrier. It is not yet known what Zidane's next plans are, waiting for an offer from the team he wants makes sense considering he has not managed any club after parting ways with Real Madrid. Zidane should be able to look for new challenges with an EPL club, the language barrier problem can be overcome as Flick did at Barcelona by looking for an assistant who speaks Spanish.

Zidane can do this if he has an interest in continuing his career in a different league, he must prove his quality like Guardiola did with Manchester City. Of course, Zidane experience is still very minimal because he has only managed one team, but he has the ability to make the team he manages provide competition in the title race, as he did when he managed Real Madrid when they managed to win the UCL trophy.

The language barrier is not a cogent reason for not wanting to work in the premiership because he could always work with an assistant who can also serve as an interpreter while he works on his English vocabulary. I assume there might be other reasons for not coming to the EPL. Zinedine Zidane has always been a selective coach who takes a lot of time before accepting a coaching deal. He is known not to be moved by money, so he could take all his time before making a decision. Apart from the clubs in the premiership, he has also turned down deals from other top clubs. I think his main target is to coach the French national team. But the outstanding performance of the current coach Didier Claude Deschamps has been delaying his dream.

Manchester United has great potential, and it seems to me that Pochettino would definitely be no worse than ten Hag.

Tuchel has confirmed that he will rest next season and will not coach any club later, indeed previously Tuchel and the owner of Manchester United have met to talk about the possibility of the two working together next season, but I don't know what happened the two did not find an agreement, currently ten hag future of course has not been confirmed after Manchester United evaluated Ten Hag performance so far,  But I think after Tuchel refused to coach manchester united, of course it seems that Ten Hag is still safe as the coach of Manchester United next season, so far Manchester United has given full trust to Ten Hag so it seems that Ten Hag will be difficult to replace before his contract ends.

Reportedly, Ferguson has suggested that Manchester United recruit Pochettino but I think that will not happen because so far Pochettino has been considered incompatible with the team philosophy, In addition, it is reported that so far Pochettino has also not received the right offer for him to return to coach the team next season, this season Pochettino has indeed had a challenging period at Chelsea, however, he managed to show improvement in the team performance towards the end of the season, but even so unfortunately he did not get much time and opportunity to continue his performance at Chelsea.

Manchester United are still dancing around linking coaches and at the same time making the man Erik ten Heg to feel they want to keep him as the manager of UTD next season, to be honest I feel Manchester United board are being disrespectful with there indecision. Erik ten Heg deserve more than what they're giving him at this point because how can they make him feel he's the man for the job and at the same time he isn't?
At least let them tell the players, the fans and everyone who needs to know if Erik ten Heg is going to be in charge next season because other managers in the EPL have already started making plans on how they're going to begin the season and the players to sign and sell but UTD are still drawing maps that lead to nowhere, I just feel this is an act of disrespect to the man ten Heg. What do you think is the main problem with the Red Devils board on this issue concerning Erik ten Heg?

[bitgolden]

To be fair, United beating City was something nobody could have predicted, so losing money on that one is fine and you should not be upset about that. The amount of money City made me all season long is more than enough for me to forgive them for losing just one game like that, makes no sense to me at all to just be upset over a game for that long unless I lost all of my money.

The more important question is that ETH should not stay based on this one cup, and will they keep him anyway? If they do keep him then they are making a huge mistake, and from what I am seeing, they are looking for a better manager that would be great, and if not then they are going to keep the same manager, and that would eb quite a big trouble if you ask me and will not give them a good season.

Well that's basically what every club is bound to do, I mean it's clear stupidity to have players who are of know value and then still have them in the squad and again arsenal is the only team now in the premier that can actually dethrone Manchester city from carrying the league the forth time in a row and that's why it's needful of them to always add value to their squad rather than just leave the players who have turned to liability instead of assets with value.

Manchester United has great potential, and it seems to me that Pochettino would definitely be no worse than ten Hag.

However, the problem is that Erik Ten Hag is currently still at the club, even though news of his dismissal has been heard, it seems that Manchester United are still not completely sure about it, so they are hanging on to whether they will still be with Erik Ten Hag next season or not. Several coaches' names have emerged, but I'm still not sure if Manchester United hasn't officially fired the Dutch coach.

Maybe they are interested in Pochettino's performance at Chelsea, but other names have also emerged, such as Thomas Tuchel. But once again this is just a rumor and I have not heard of Manchester United's closeness to them. Maybe now Manchester United is considering it carefully, because it is not easy for them to make a decision straight away because this concerns the future of the team and its performance. However, in my opinion Manchester United cannot be unstable in this matter, if they really want a new coach then they have to move quickly.

Zinedine Zidane has been in charge of Real Madrid and he has achieved considerable success in charge of Real Madrid. Later, when he left Real Madrid, many clubs offered him to take charge of the club but he did not accept any club's offer. PSG made many attempts to give him the responsibility of the club but he always turned down PSG's offer. There were rumors in the middle that this former French footballer will take charge of the French national team but France did not give him the opportunity, France extended the contract with the person who was in charge of France before. Now there are rumors that several English Premier League clubs have offered this manager but so far this manager has not accepted any offer so what is he waiting for. Perhaps he is waiting to return to Real Madrid again.

Zinedine Zidane has given his reasons for not coaching a team in the Premier League because of the language barrier and even though many people say it is just an excuse to refuse gently and Zinedine Zidane is waiting for the right team to coach and I think that's only natural because every coach He has his own reasons for the decisions he makes.
However, in terms of experience, Zinedine Zidane doesn't have much experience, he was only successful with Real Madrid, that's because when Zinedine Zidane was Real Madrid coach, the squad that Real Madrid had was good enough so Zinedine Zidane didn't have any problems.

Zidane has little experience as a coach. But Zidane has proven to be an excellent coach. We know that when Zidane was the coach of Madrid, Takham Madrid had a very strong squad. Even then, Zidane would not have succeeded with Madrid if he had not been a good coach. With Madrid he won ten Champions League titles and one La Liga title. Winning the Champions League title is not an easy task. Since Zidane has won three Champions League titles, it proves that he is an excellent coach.

It is true that Zidane lacks experience. However, in the last few years, several big teams offered Zidane to become a coach. But Zidane rejected the offer each time. He is probably waiting for a perfect proposal. Or waiting for a strong squad. With which he will be able to easily win the title.

Although I think that Arsenal's squad is quite good. But trying to bring in better players is indeed a step that Arsenal must take if they want to get better improvements in the next season. And for that reason, this team had to release several players. and that's not a problem as long as this team can bring in a better replacement. Arteta has failed several times to win the Premier League title, but actually every season he gets closer to getting it. So next season could be a good time for Arsenal to win the title. But to do that I hope this team succeeds in bringing in other great players.

This is no excuse, Jose Mourinho wasn't fluent with English when he was first appointed head coach of Chelsea,  Cristiano Ronaldo wasn't good too but he worked well with Manchester United, same goes with Lionel Messi who wasn't good with Spanish either ways.

Zidane is not just a coach to bring up that squad from scratch the way Xabi Alonso did with Bayern Leverkusen, if he can then he should prove us wrong. I don't have no issues with his playing days as a player bit he is not just as sound as people perceive him. All these came about because of the back to back³ Champions League win with Real Madrid.

He can wait for his france job to come.

Arsenal need sign up a new striker immediately, because they cannot out focus on the player called Gabriel Jesus, not even Kai Havertz next season.

Cédric Soares and Mohamed Elneny might be very suitable if replaced by new players because we can see that these two people are over 30 years old. If they are old enough, their performance will clearly be very different from players who are younger. Maybe other teams will also consider it more deeply because usually age is an important factor in the selling price of football players. Eddie Nketiah and Reiss Nelson will probably be sold soon because they are still young and have potential that can still be honed further. I really hope that the money collected is used to buy talented players who can make Arsenal win in every match they face.

You can’t say that Nketiah hasn’t been that productive when substituted into the match, I just felt he didn’t have a lot of playing time to prove his potentials more. He is a young player and they finished from the same Arsenal academy as Bukayo Saka. If he has been given more opportunities in the field, I feel he’ll do better than what he’s offering for the team now. He is still a young striker, and I am sure he will have a good chance in another team with more playing time but shouldn’t put hope in been signed by a big team now. He should look for team that he’ll be their first choice or have more playing time than he’s given in Arsenal. Nketiah has proven several times to be worthy of been dependent on as a striker, but he’s overshadowed by Jesus, who’s a more versatile and talented striker than they think he is. Selling him should now make him feel bad but should hope for a more better career ahead.

If we compare Arsenal's squad with Manchester City's then we will see that Arsenal's squad has fewer star players than City's. The bonding between Arsenal's players was very good and that's why Arsenal performed so well this season. and continued to challenge for the title until the end of the season. There is no doubt that Arsenal have played very well this season.

Mikel Arteta is looking to strengthen his squad. Arsenal have had several weaknesses this season. So they are in China to win the title. Arteta is looking to build a squad more capable of winning the title next season. The coming season is going to be even more exciting.

Manchester United are still dancing around linking coaches and at the same time making the man Erik ten Heg to feel they want to keep him as the manager of UTD next season, to be honest I feel Manchester United board are being disrespectful with there indecision. Erik ten Heg deserve more than what they're giving him at this point because how can they make him feel he's the man for the job and at the same time he isn't?
At least let them tell the players, the fans and everyone who needs to know if Erik ten Heg is going to be in charge next season because other managers in the EPL have already started making plans on how they're going to begin the season and the players to sign and sell but UTD are still drawing maps that lead to nowhere, I just feel this is an act of disrespect to the man ten Heg. What do you think is the main problem with the Red Devils board on this issue concerning Erik ten Heg?

Ten Hag is not bad in my opinion, but it is the depth of Manchester United's squad that needs to be improved. They need a better defense, midfielders and attackers than they currently have, but that is the big obstacle so far. Management seems unable to do that for Ten Hag, even though they have to have full confidence in the plans that are being built.

I don't know what they're worried about if Ten Hag gets this job any longer. Basically, we have got a lot of evidence that Ten Hag is a good coach, but the lack of support and trust within the team seems to make his team's performance shaky. It's not good to fire and replace managers in the short term, it's bad for player psychology.

[hahay]

The amount of money City made me all season long is more than enough for me to forgive them for losing just one game like that, makes no sense to me at all to just be upset over a game for that long unless I lost all of my money.

The more important question is that ETH should not stay based on this one cup, and will they keep him anyway? If they do keep him then they are making a huge mistake, and from what I am seeing, they are looking for a better manager that would be great, and if not then they are going to keep the same manager, and that would eb quite a big trouble if you ask me and will not give them a good season.

It doesn't matter about those of you who have made a lot of money from your bets on Manchester City because after all, basically those who are disappointed because Manchester City lost the FA Cup final are because they cannot recognize Manchester United's abilities. After all, losing and winning in bets and also in matches is basically something that is bound to happen, because of course there will always be winners and losers. But at least,  when they can't admit that Manchester United can still play well and can win trophies, then they will be disappointed and say that Manchester United is just lucky or something, basically they find it difficult to admit that Manchester United won.
