Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Google+]

We'll see how Arsenal prove their quality this season because all the teams look very competitive. I am for Manchester City as a supporter or a fan, they have convinced me a lot over the years. Arsenal have to fight to prove it, they will compete with Tottenham and also Manchester United to reach the top four. Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City are all contenders for the title and in the end I think Arsenal will only be fighting for a place in the Champions League, not for the title.

Arsenal and Tottenham are two teams that I think have developed quite well last season. Both of these teams are also moving quite well in this transfer market. But I think these two teams are still not strong enough to replace Liverpool or Manchester City as strong candidates for the title next season. Arsenal may be targeting a top 4 place next season and I think Tottenham too. either manchester city or liverpool they brought in very good forwards like nunez and haaland so these two teams next season will still swap places for 1st or 2nd position.

All this attitude from Christiano Ronaldo are coming up because Ronaldo never had intention to remain in Manchester United,  it will be too bad if Ronaldo should decide to do things on his own. I know Ronaldo to be a legend,  a good player but if he continues not to play for Manchester United with his clear mind , it will really affect his carreer this remaining year to retire.

Ronaldo is a legendary and professional athlete. However, Ronaldo does not want to stay with Manchester United at the moment. He will almost be forced to stay with Manchester United. But I don't think it will affect his performance. Because if his performance deteriorates, he will not be able to stay with any good squad in the next season. Ronaldo's dream is to win another Champions League. And so it is very important for Ronaldo to perform well this season.

I think everyone is going too far in commenting on Ronaldo's attitude.  It is very obvious that Cristiano Ronaldo was very frustrated with Manchester United's performance last season, but personally Ronaldo's contribution is still very large for United, CR7 is able to become the top scorer for the Red Devils.  I believe Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United and of course Erik Ten Hag still needs his services.

I'm sure Cristiano Ronaldo will sit on the bench on Sunday when Manchester United host Brington, as Erik ten Hag thinks Ronaldo isn't fit enough to play United's opener at Old Trafford and he'd rather have the trio of Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford in.  forward for United who have served him well during pre-season.

Any official links regarding this? I dont think its matter though but he is Ronaldo and he is fit enough to play in any games. He might not start as the starting lineup especially on the first game of the season but Ten Hag definitely will play him


Anyway, could we get the discussion in this thread back on track though? Season is starting soon and most discussion in here is still related to transfer issue and stuff, its much better to get this back on track by discussing about the opening game this friday

Since some potential transfers turned to a saga then I can't blame people commenting them
About CR7, he pissed a lot Ten Hag when he left the stadium before the end of the game. It is like I don't care about you, I am selfish... So I won't be surprised if Ten Hag will let him on the benches or allow him to play for 10 minutes as a punishment..
For EPL games, there is only one match this Friday between Arsenal and Crystal Palace and I think there isn't much to say unless gunners lose it..

What Hag said was that he didn't like the fact that he, and other players, left more games in the last prep game. It wasn't just Ronaldo who left early, other players did too, but the media didn't highlight that.

He also told Sky Sports that Ronaldo has a place in the team, but he needs to get back in shape.

There has been a lot of movement in the transfer market over the last 25 hours, and I believe transfer discussions are still welcome until the window closes.
Well, if you're looking for organic and good conversations, you'll probably get them from only a few members here, because the rate of spam on this thread is becoming massive, and that's why I only reply to a few members here. That's besides the point! Ronaldo is fit, but he will most likely start from the bench, as you mentioned, because of the character he displayed during the game against Athletico Madrid. ETH stated on the news yesterday that they were unhappy with how some players left the stadium while the game was still going on, and what Ronaldo did was unprofessional. Let's wait and see what happens this weekend
Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea to all win.

This is what definitely happens when something that is considered trivial is made news and exaggerated just to support the news so that it is crowded to read
It's no wonder that some media are tasked with doing things like this just for their own popularity without looking at the situation of others, the most important thing is the news they publish is crowded.

I think that I'm curious about the Manchester United - Brighton game the most now. The reason is of course that the Red Devils are going to play their first ever Premier League game with Erik ten Hag. We all must be wondering what kind of a start they will make to the league. In my opinion they will manage to defeat Brighton and Ronaldo can make a contribution as well even if he starts the game from the bench. He should be able to play with a clear mind from now on and continue to do his best for the team.

Arsenal's performance last season was very good. Arsenal could have qualified for the Champions League had they not performed poorly in a few late-season matches. Arsenal has lost two of their last 3 matches. If they could win a match, fourth place in the points table would be guaranteed for Arsenal. However, I have watched Arsenal's friendlies. It looks like we will see a steady performance from Arsenal this season as well.

Yes, starting the first match last season, Arsenal was very stumbling, so many people predicted Arsenal would be sinking. But who would have thought, over time, the Gunners were increasingly changing, they managed to get up and had a very big chance to qualify for the champions league, but because of their inconsistent performances they failed to secure it. Then facing the new season Arsenal brought in a lot of new players and it looks like they will be a serious challenger.

Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag will be looking forward to recording his first EPL win against Brighton and all that everyone is expecting from him is to come up with a very good formation not minding who starts the game in the team but everyone is expecting to see a different performance from the team and her players. For Ronaldo, I can't tell if he will be in the game since the coach said he is not ready and still needs a lot of training to enable him to play in the team, I don't see him playing in the game though I believe he is a wonderful superstar that is full of skills and energy so I think he will be a major contributor to the team if he is to play in any minute but I guess he should have more playing time instead of suggesting few minutes of playing time for a star like him.

Jamie Vardy is a very sharp and balance striker which knows the nuts and screws of the game. He's well skilled with the ball and also an agressive player at that, Leicester haven't been doing well in the past seasons due to their inconsistency in winning games. It's been a long while Leicester won a trophy and their Leicester boss, Brendan Rodgers is seeking to restrategize his squad once more and get to look for new talents elsewhere. Chelsea going in for Jamie Vardy isn't a welcome idea, rather it's totally not in Todd's plan or Tuchel to bring him in.

Now, this season is going to be decisive for the Leicester City can they hold him anymore or his also going to any other good club for rest of his career because he deserves some better than his current situation and still few years left in his career which can help any good club for having good record for winning big achievements.

I heard rumour that if chelsea wants jamie vardy. I saw some news that have been talking about his transfer to the chelsea. It may possible if vardy will be going to the chelsea since the transfer season has not yet closed. MU was also giving signal for jamie vardy and it seems like the competition between MU and chelsea for him will be happening. Jamie was an old guy but he has very big potetential.

After spending 11 years with Leicester City, Kasper Schmeichel left the club and signed with Nice for an unknown sum.
The Danish goalkeeper spent more than ten years with Leicester after moving there from Leeds United. During his time at the King Power Stadium, he won the Premier League championship, the FA Cup, and the Community Shield. Schmeichel made 479 appearances overall for the Foxes, featured in more Premier League games for Leicester than any other player (276), and, barring injury, will be part of Denmark's squad for the World Cup in Qatar later this year.

Schmeichel has been a mainstay throughout the most successful period in the club's history, winning the Championship and promotion in 2013/14, the Premier League title in 2015/16, and the FA Cup and Community Shield in 2021. The goalkeeper will follow in the footsteps of the former Arsenal, Juventus and Rangers midfielder, Aaron Ramsey, who moved to the south of France after his contract with Juventus ended. Schmeichel deserves more respect from the club for all his dedication to Leicester City.

Chelsea and Man United, who are still hunting for a striker, have finally been linked with Jamie Vardy, who is a 35-year-old striker from Leicester.
Moreover, this summer's transfer market is still open until September 1, so several Premier League teams are still hunting for new players.
Man United and Chelsea have the same problem, they now need a centre-forward, so Vardy's name came up as a solution. Jamie Vardy's performance
has been quite consistent in the last 5 seasons with Leicester, this is what makes Chelsea and Man United interested in Vardy. Moreover, the rest of Vardy's contract, who only had one more season at Leicester, was used by Man United and Chelsea to recruit him. Even though Leicester actually
wanted to keep Vardy who had a big contribution, but if the price offered by Man United and Chelsea is considered suitable, Leicester are willing to
sell Vardy. We'll see in the next few days whether Man United and Chelsea dare to make an initial offer to Leicester.

Ronaldo isn't fit yet, because he missed many matches in pre-session. So I think Ronaldo will play in the 2nd half, or that possible he will miss the full match if he still sulking because the official didn't leave him to go. So when we talk about the team, I believe MU still have a chance to win the match even with or without Ronaldo, because they have RMS (Rashford, Martial, and Sancho) which is good on tour Prematch

Arsenal and Tottenham are two teams that I think have developed quite well last season. Both of these teams are also moving quite well in this transfer market. But I think these two teams are still not strong enough to replace Liverpool or Manchester City as strong candidates for the title next season. Arsenal may be targeting a top 4 place next season and I think Tottenham too. either manchester city or liverpool they brought in very good forwards like nunez and haaland so these two teams next season will still swap places for 1st or 2nd position.

The two city teams will be competing, of course. Arsenal managed to improve in the middle of last season when they were so bad at the start that Arteta began to be rumored to be sacked. But miraculously Arteta managed to turn things around which made his team almost managed to finish in the top 4, but unfortunately Tottenham were more fortunate to take advantage of Arsenal's inconsistency.

I agree with your last assumption, Manchester City and Liverpool will be competing at the top of the table as usual. Liverpool may be able to break Manchester City's chain of titles, but of course they can't do it easily. Haaland is not everything that can help Manchester City secure the title, but he will have a contribution there this season and the same will apply to Nunez's situation at Liverpool.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Manchester City are playing in a friendly match against Bayern Munich in a few minutes.
They should be the favorites but the odds don't show it with Bayern having them.
Don't know if city will be dressing Haaland for this one. But more than likely in the second half just like Liverpool did with Nunez.

I'm also shocked to see that Manchester City is not being given as a favorite and I don't understand why, because in Bayern there is no Lewandowski who was Bayern's strongest weapon, he who scored many goals, on the other side we have City a lot strong and is playing with Haaland



City will win this game, this will be a good chance to see how Mane will do in bayern. Too bad I won't be able to watch the game

Match started later but right after Haaland scored they told them all to go back to the locker rooms. It looked like it was raining abit harder than they thought it would. So the referee stopped it for now.
He certainly is looking comfortable in a City jersey and with his new teammates.
.

what a start for Haaland, 12 minutes were enough for him to score and to assure people and man city fans that he's bringing something new to man city, his style of play and his height definitely is going to work out with city's strategy, too bad the match was interrupted, we could have seen more, I think Man City will dominate the Premier league this season, champions league is their bigger goal, but I still don't think they can win it now.

I think the same, Haaland really has a very good style of play, also the way he played I think the whole team makes him stand out much more, for Pep Guardiola it is better what is happening to him so far, I don't know but if this team goes like this they will probably be candidates to the PL final and be careful, because this time they can sneak into the UCL final, the team is very strong, it remains to be seen how PSG behaves in its league and in the UCL, which I name because it is a a team that can be a reference for them, as well as Real Madrid, and in turn Bayern, if we take into account that they can be potential winners of the UCL, it is likely that Haland will be included in the list of the best players.

Arsenal and Tottenham are two teams that I think have developed quite well last season. Both of these teams are also moving quite well in this transfer market. But I think these two teams are still not strong enough to replace Liverpool or Manchester City as strong candidates for the title next season.

Haaland is not everything that can help Manchester City secure the title, but he will have a contribution there this season and the same will apply to Nunez's situation at Liverpool.

For me Man City will be a very tough opponent and I don't mean just the PL, I mean a big challenge for all the UCL teams, personally I think Haalan is very active and he needs to win both the PL and the UCL. In order to have enough experience to be able to take his beloved Denmark to the World Cup, this World Cup will have great absences, and among them a great like Haaland. As everyone has been as excited as Arsenal, I think it will not be easy for Man City either, I don't know, but I think this season will be much more exciting than the previous one, it's just a hunch, on the other hand Liverpool will always be a team to be very careful, because at the least expected moment it can cause any surprise, it is a very strong and careful team.

whether chelsea will be able to beat everton in the first match schedule later on the 6th?
everton is not too in the lead. even in the pre-season Everton suffered many defeats. so it will be very possible in the match later chelsea can be the winner. but I'm not too sure about Chelsea's performance.

If it's only against Brighton then maybe not a big problem for Manchester even without Ronaldo as you said there are still some mainstay players
It's just that I doubt they are competing for the title with current squad or even champion league zone a bit more difficult
So are there no more new players before the transfer window closes?

everton is not too in the lead. even in the pre-season Everton suffered many defeats. so it will be very possible in the match later chelsea can be the winner. but I'm not too sure about Chelsea's performance.

Chelsea is currently still busy organizing its main squad. Some of Chelsea's targets are still unresolved. this season it looks like Chelsea wants to spend a lot of money to perform better.
Chelsea's lack at the moment I think defensively. and they are still looking for some more players. although the squad has not formed well, there is confident Chelsea can be the underdog in the match later.

it's true that chelsea is still very clearly in need of defenders at this time. but I really don't understand Chelsea in the transfer market this season. even good players like jules kounde they didn't manage to get. and again barcelona who got it. whereas compared to barcelona, ​​of course chelsea much more need it. but chelsea are too slow in giving high bids. as a chelsea fan even i feel disappointed.
