Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[wmaurik]

Roberto Firmino is still an important player for Liverpool, I think for this season Liverpool will try to keep him unless they get a high offer. The arrival of Luiz Diaz and Darwin Nunez is indeed good for Liverpool. But losing two senior players (Mane and Firmino) simultaneously is not a good thing for Liverpool.

Of course, but if Liverpool still want to look for other players in the current transfer market, then losing Roberto Firmino is also not an obstacle for Liverpool although it would be better if Liverpool were able to keep him because Roberto Firmino is a very good player at Liverpool too so it would be very wise if Liverpool want to keep it.

I believe, they will definitely release frenkie de Jong to Manchester united because many teams that wish to have him in their team don't have such amount of money Manchester united what to sign him in this season. Manchester united coach prefer frenkie de Jong than milinkovic-savic that is why he don't what to give up on frenkie de Jong in this season than to do everything possible within his power to bring him into the team. Manchester united will definitely increase higher in next season with those potential squads they have successfully brought into the team.

Last pre season match on El Clasico have different position given for Frankie de Jong because Xavi Hernandez used him as central forward not as attacking midfielder like usually his position, I think this way adopt by Barcelona how to make de Jong accepted with Manchester United offering and forget with bonuses still not pay by Barcelona until right now. But problem not between Barcelona and Manchester United only but also Frankie de Jong will leave Barcelona and make Manchester United as his next challenge, but he want get full payment from Barcelona with bonus still not paying until right now.

Manchester United shouldn't waste their time with the Frenkie de Jong deal if they are still having problems on finishing up the agreement. Because the season is almost upon us as there are two weeks to go. Their second option is Milinkovic-Savic indeed. I don't know how much willing Lazio are to sell one of their most valuable players. I wonder how much they ask for him. Manchester United were ready to pay more than 80 million euros for de Jong so they should be planning the same at least for Milinkovic-Savic as well.

I believe, they will definitely release frenkie de Jong to Manchester united because many teams that wish to have him in their team don't have such amount of money Manchester united what to sign him in this season. Manchester united coach prefer frenkie de Jong than milinkovic-savic that is why he don't what to give up on frenkie de Jong in this season than to do everything possible within his power to bring him into the team.

After several players were successfully brought in the transfer market, the stock of Barcelona players is increasing, especially according to the news circulating that Barcelona will soon inaugurate Kounde. With players piling up, Barcelona have to sell several players who are not included in Xavi plans for next season. Barcelona did not rule out De Jong will leave the Camp Nou, he is the only asset that Barcelona can sell to increase the club finances after previously spending so much money to bring in players, De Jong departure can also ease Barcelona expenses to pay player salaries.

Manchester United must immediately make an offer for De Jong if they want to sign him, because Chelsea are also interested in De Jong, especially since Chelsea have just lost some of the targets they were after.

Chelsea have the 24-year-old right-back Nordi Mukiele under their radar now. They are in a race to sign him with PSG to be clearer. Chelsea want to have an advantage by offering Timo Werner to them. On the other hand Leipzig have Andre Silva as their main striker and there are two more strikers like Poulsen and Sörloth. Even though I think also that Werner can start playing like the old times at Leipzig it might be difficult to take Silva's place in the starting eleven. I wonder if Leipzig are thinking of adding another striker to the team.

[lixer]

Chelsea have declined both in performance and reputation since the change of the club's ownership. I also saw the post match interview of Thomas Tuchel obviously, he is not happy with the club for their lack of seriousness and ruthlessness in the transfer, he also mentioned that the club is supposed to be getting the players to bond now before the start of the league but until they still have gotten enough signings which isn't good for the progress of the team.

Tuchel is right that Chelsea management isn't very serious to get targetted players in this transfer window. There are already some targetted players stolen by Barcelona, so Chelsea failed several times to sign the new players. It is a very serious problem, they won't get any player if they are not serious. Chelsea has a lack of quality CB and CF, they should sign a top center-back like Kounde and sign a top CF to improve their performance. It is true that their current performance is soo badly, they are not ready to begin EPL competition if no additional top players.

Suddenly Tuchel's this statement is shocking because few days back Chelsea were one of the most active English team in transfer team which were buying quality players even they fail few times just because of rivalry by Barcelona, but they are still busy and having talk with few players with they are currently most favorite for Kounde transfer but if management is not serious then surely it's going to be big problem for them in Premier League and Champions League because they need few quality players for improvement and if they fail then surely it's going to be big problem for them with they are already having few issues in defense which is surely looking for some improvement, and they need to fix this all as now time is running out, and they could be in trouble if they fail in this signing.

It does look like Liverpool were hesitant about selling the Firmino when Juventus tabled their initial bid, and it is believed Juventus are now willing to up their offer. The World Cup is coming, he needs regular football and since Liverpool didn’t offer him that last season Juventus will offer him more first team football. Besides he has entered the final year of his contract, and he has won everything at Liverpool, he should equally move for a new challenge like how Mane did.

Roberto Firmino is still an important player for Liverpool, I think for this season Liverpool will try to keep him unless they get a high offer. The arrival of Luiz Diaz and Darwin Nunez is indeed good for Liverpool. But losing two senior players (Mane and Firmino) simultaneously is not a good thing for Liverpool.

Firmino has spend his time in the bench during last season and his contract will be expired on 2023 so if Liverpool aren't sell him then next season he will be free agent status unless Firmino extended his contract and for his position on the team Liverpool already have Diogo Jota or Luis Diaz so Firmino already lost his place in Liverpool starting lineup and losing him aren't big problem for Liverpool and i know he is a part of Liverpool team while this team get many trophies especially Premier League trophy but everything is change now because he isn't Klopp main priority again and Juventus were very serious want him so i think it's time for him to think about offers from other clubs

If Ronaldo has no confidence later after being forced to stay at Manchester United, will it be better to work with other teams? I doubt it because of his desire to leave even though Ten Hag has a good plan but Ronaldo's feeling is that he still wants to focus on going out so pre-season is left behind.

But if Ronaldo wants to keep going and as it was rumored to Atletico Madrid whether there will be quality players like Manchester United, I don't think Manchester United is better for now than Atletico.

Ronaldo still has not given clear clarification whether he will go to Atletico Madrid in this summer window or he will stay with Manchester United. It seems that there is no coercion from Manchester United and also from Erik to withstand Ronaldo from leaving Manchester United because rumors circulating Manchester allow Ronaldo to go to Atletico Madrid on one condition, namely signing a contract extension.
Today Ronaldo seems to have returned to Manchester United to talk about his future. Ronaldo may throw away his ego to play in the champions league next season and he may listen to a little whisper from Erik to stay with Manchester United next season.

After having green signal from Manchester United management but still not having positive development from Ronaldo side is surely wired because there was chance after this all he will do this all very quickly but silent and nothing officially coming mean now he is again changing his mind and trying to settle here in this season without Champions League because most chances he is not going to compromise on salary which is also the biggest issue for Atlético Madrid.

After them no other club is having any interest in Ronaldo which is also the biggest concern for him and his agent with this all most chances he is going to stay here at Manchester United for another season or maybe until end of his career.

Looking at the current situation, of all the clubs that will participate in the Premier League, only Liverpool has the potential to make Manchester City the most difficult. In fact, I see that both of them will return to the first and second positions in the standings. I say so judging from the preparations made by both of them. But this is the English Premier League that always gives extraordinary surprises. I personally hope that no club can dominate the Premier League.

[blue Snow]

Manchester United must immediately make an offer for De Jong if they want to sign him, because Chelsea are also interested in De Jong, especially since Chelsea have just lost some of the targets they were after.

Only if de jong is undisposed to cut his salary in Barcelona, If happens he will be anchored to MU. Chelsea's prestige is no longer good after changing ownership, I don't know why, they are often cornered by another club in getting players on the market. even if made a good offer, a player like Raphinha chooses the club that bids lower than Chelsea. maybe this is a bad year for Chelsea, but they still do not worry because have got a talented player like sterling

It is not realistic to assume that they (the players) will continue to do so even after the league has started. To me, friendly preseason games are somehow pointless since you can't evaluate a player entirely based on how they perform in exhibition games. When the league starts, a player's true potential is what he can provide to the squad; the games are much more intense and action-packed than they are now. As you noted, the Premier League is full with surprises. Let's wait and watch to see how each team does, particularly early in the season.

Right now de jong future is still in a state of uncertainty due to the lack of understanding between barcelona and de jong, but I think the only way for de jong is to leave barcelona and accept the invitation of manchester or chelsea to playing in the premier league , focusing on the coach factor of course de jong might prefer to join manchester than chelsea at this time, I see if chelsea so far after Abramovich ownership ended it seemed that it no longer had the attraction for star players to join and it was proven after chelsea lost some of their target players due to being cornered by another team that even offers a lower salary than chelsea at this time.

What you say is not wrong, but pre-season friendly matches are things that must also be considered important for every club even though the true potential of a player is not all mobilized by every player in a friendly match. Which however friendlies will still be important to see the benchmark of each club's strength before the season starts. And each club can immediately make the desired changes if there are still slight deficiencies in the squad.

De Jong is close to leaving Barcelona but I have not heard that an agreement has been reached between Barcelona/De Jong and Manchester United. Some issues have to be resolved before this transfer is completed but maybe in the end we should know that there is a possibility of a failed transfer between the two teams.

Manchester United seem to be urging Barcelona to let their players go to them this season and I heard that the Manchester United legend also suggested De Jong to sue Barcelona instead of suggesting his former team look for other quality players. I don't understand how to start because so far De Jong is still a Barcelona player.

As much as Arsenal are bringing in new players for next season, I still don’t feel hopeful ahead of next season because they’ve failed to address the key areas which needed reinforcement from the end last season disappointments. The defensive midfield is the key area where Arsenal should focus on if they’re to compete in the coming season. Thomas Partey’s injury towards the end of last season cost them the top 4 spot and since he injury prone, Arsenal should sign a similar type of midfielder, a press resistant one.

You're right, one of the reasons for Arsenal's decline is also because their midfield hasn't worked out well these past few seasons. The midfield is the key to the game to be more balanced in defense and attack. If they lose that position, it's likely that they won't be able to talk much in every game.

I think you are wrong, there are a series of mechanisms that make pre-season important. as well as friendly matches, important for a football club.
many clubs have prepared their pre-season with training sessions and several friendly matches, especially ahead of the new season that will roll.

their main goal is not only for marketing purposes, but the pre-season match will be their physical foundation to carry out 40 full weeks of playing football, besides that the coach can try to implement new strategies or tactics, especially to cover the shortcomings of last season and friendly matches can be a benchmark coach to judge the players.

in fact there are still many things that I do not describe, I think you can understand the importance of pre-season and friendly matches.

[borovichok]

Tottenham have really done well in the transfer market, bringing in the likes of Richarlison, Bissouma, Ivan perrisic, Clement lenglets, Forster and Spence but one signing they have to make so they can have a perfect squad is bringing in a number ten, so they can switch to formation or let me say plan B,and the player must have a great passing ability because Antonio Conte talk about 3-4-1-2 last season.dont know why they didn't bring in Christian Eriksen but I believe that Conte will chose a better number ten.

[KTChampions]

Tuchel is right that Chelsea management isn't very serious to get targetted players in this transfer window. There are already some targetted players stolen by Barcelona, so Chelsea failed several times to sign the new players. It is a very serious problem, they won't get any player if they are not serious.

It is true that their current performance is soo badly, they are not ready to begin EPL competition if no additional top players.

In general, this is a rather strange situation. Chelsea were originally said to have 200m for new transfers, but they end up losing the transfer battle to Barcelona, which is on the brink of bankruptcy and constantly asking players for pay cuts. Do Chelsea offer such worse conditions that the players prefer Barcelona? If I were a player, I would prefer to play in Chelsea and the strongest league in the world, the Premier League, than in crisis Barcelona.

That's why I previously said "looking at the current situation", it concerns the overall readiness of the club itself. Of course there will be differences when playing in official competitions.
What I focus on here is how other teams work so that what happened in this pre-season doesn't happen. Once again the Premier League is a league full of surprises, and my greatest wish is to see another dark horse team do that.
