Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[MoonOfLife]

Liverpool completing the contract extension of one of their keyplayers.  Curtis Jones sign a new long term contract with the reds until June 2027. He's consider a key part for both the present and future projects which will be executed by Jurgen Klopp. Jones is one of the finest player in liverpool, one of the major reason behind his poor state was as a result of long term injuries sustain during games. Let's watch out for his better form after the world cup.

Liverpool secured one but they have few other players that have their contracts expire by the end of the season! The team is focusing now on extending Firmino's contract and to sign new players, mainly midfielders.

Liverpool's position is now completely unstable. Now we are not sure whether they will extend the contracts of the old players or form a completely new squad. Because the performance of the players in the team is not good enough. Even star players are not able to perform well. So it would not be surprising if the Liverpool management now wants to build a new squad and prioritize young players.

Everything is going well for Arsenal for now. Whether they become the champions or finish the season at the second position, the expectation level by their supporters will increase highly.

Arsenal's hard work so far has really paid off. They have really struggled so far, trying to fix the various problems they had in the last season. And their hard work has paid off, so far they are at the top of the EPL standings with pretty good processes and results.

At least from 14 matches, they only lost 1 time and drew 1 time, the rest were wins. Isn't this a very good result? In fact, Man City has not been this consistent. If they continue like this, it is possible they will become the holder of the trophy this season. Unless they make 2 mistakes, that might give Man City a bigger chance to overtake their ranking.

[rby]

The Manchester City people keep hyping also keeps blanking in some games...lol. Arsenal can make it if they keep the same tempo. City can do nothing about it.

I agree with you as, I am beginning to have the same thoughts too. Manchester City is good, we all know that but, don't we think they are loosing there magic in the EPL? Like, they've come by some disappointing performance with Pep not taking the critical chances he has to close in on Arteta and somehow, Manchester City still remains most of the EPL fan's best choice. We would he watching and Arsenal is slowly but surely getting the point gaps they need for some assurances.
Manchester City might disappoint most persons this season, they just might after coming up as a runner up for the league title.

I don't have high hopes for any club in the English Premier League including Manchester City. What really happened in English Premier League is a rapid improvement of all the clubs. They all want to do well at the same time they are buying good players and they are replacing coaches that are underperforming. This really means that anybody will be able to win or lose any match.
That five points gap that Arsenal have, is quite difficult close up because the team that wants to close up the five points
does not have the guarantee that they will not lose their own match

[Pokapoka124]

It is still nice to see the people who are voting for even Liverpool to become the champions. But if we become more realistic then we can see that it is really difficult for Liverpool to enter the title race this season. After that bad run the gap with the teams at top has got much bigger. There is a 15-point gap with Arsenal now.

I know that the season is still long but Liverpool just need to be very consistent and hope for Arsenal - Manchester City duo to make mistakes more often. But I just think that the biggest thing Liverpool can do this season is to finish at the 3rd position in the standings. Even this would be nice for them considering that they are having an average season now.

Before the league started Liverpool is the champion candidate because last season Liverpool performance was outstanding and can reach to 3 final matches from different competitions so that's why most of them has been voted for Liverpool because they hoping Liverpool will continue their good performance but apparently the reality is beyond out of people expectation that Liverpool was playing poor even they have to hard struggle to reach european zone and 15 difference points looks impossible to chased by Liverpool although premier league still have 24 matches remaining and let's be realistic that the current race title it's only belongs to Arsenal and Manchester City and for Liverpool champion league zone is the most realistic target for them but it can be reached by Liverpool if they can more to playing consistent after world cup

Liverpool were one of the most consistent sides in previous seasons, it is a surprise that they are struggling this season but despite their poor form in the league they still manage to keep up in the champions league this season. The race for the epl trophy now belongs to Arsenal and Manchester City, they are the favourites in the league this season and imo Liverpool can only settle for top four position.

[joker_josue]

Actually this depends on every viewpoint because if you look at the statistics for last season and now and look at the points that are currently owned, it is clear that Newcastle is better. but in terms of mentality and player strength in terms of individual skills, it is clear that Liverpool is still above Newcastle.
At the moment Liverpool's condition is not very good and that is a fact that cannot be taken for granted so it is fair to say that for this half of the season Newcastle is better.

This is true, it will always depend on how the situation is analyzed.

Either way highlighted a point I hadn't noticed. Newcastle at this stage of the season have 20 points more than they had last year. So yeah, they've made a lot of progress over that time and they're much better.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have 10 points less than they had last season, at this point in the league.

By the way, here is the comparison of the table from last year and this year:

One game remaining before the long holiday that Liverpool must win.
Actually looking at Southampton's current condition it is not too difficult for them to win with Southampton's condition now much worse than them but whether Liverpool can overcome this internal problem is still a little difficult to see.
Klopp can't sit still now because they already had the spirit to face Tottenham and win. This should be a good moment.

Yes this should be a must win game for Liverpool because Southampton are not in a very good form at the moment and I also expect Liverpool to win going into the break in high spirits. This is a really delicate time for Klopp he shouldn't be taking chances anymore it is expected at this moment that he wins games and gets up the table even if not competing for the trophy this season. A win against Southampton should be able to restore the confidence of the team.

Currently the condition of Southampton is not too good especially a few days ago they also sacked their coach because they were considered not too competent considering Southampton are currently at the bottom of the standings. Of course this will trigger upheaval in Internal Southampton and must be maximized properly by Liverpool.
There is currently a lot of speculation about Klopp's 7-year cycle as a coach and whether he is capable of staying at Liverpool is clearly questionable. There must be real action from Klopp so that he does not leave Liverpool and all of that must be achieved by finishing in the top 4.

Well, Southampton is a team that has not performed well, it is obvious, but I think that at this point changing a technical director can also be seen as a double-edged sword, this is something that can be taken into account, On the other hand, Klopp's performance is very good for me, if he leaves, I don't know what would happen to Liverpool, he has known how to have the best players and with a great strategy, I think it could happen if they terminate Klopp's services It would be a very bad move for the team managers, if we take into account everything they can achieve without moving Klopp it would be something great for them, at this point I would not start to invent.

It's still too early for Arsenal I think, indeed in this case I am quite aware that they are now really playing very well but on the other hand we are also aware that City can still catch up at any time now especially with the condition that they have not played this season.
The season is still far away and Arsenal still have to play effectively to keep them competitive and maintain their current position. As for this title, it's still fifty-fifty.

The problem is people actually think Arsenal can't do it. All they keep focusing on is Manchester City. Just like the way it is in Champion's League, until Real Madrid showed them who's boss last season.

The Manchester City people keep hyping also keeps blanking in some games...lol. Arsenal can make it if they keep the same tempo. City can do nothing about it.

Well there you are absolutely right, many people are getting carried away by the possible fame that Man City has, and Arsenal is very well focused, besides Gabriel Jesús is doing very well, I have an image of how strong it can be ARSENAL like that time when titi Henry played, there they played like the gods, I think that those times can return, nothing is written, City has Haaland who is the player who plays the most, but if they manage to mark him very well, they can Stop him and that's where City's strategy ends, it's also been shown that when the Android is stopped, the team can't do a lot.

Similarly, in these teams there are always surprises, the PL is very hot, there is news everywhere, the Man United and CR7 thing is something that already causes a lot of controversy.


Well and more about CR7:

Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed he would like Arsenal to win the Premier League this season if Manchester United don’t.

“And if Manchester United don’t win the Premier League, I will be happy if Arsenal do.”

Ronaldo was also happy to talk about another rival, this time a player rather than a team.

Between 2008 and 2021, Ronaldo and Lionel Messi picked up all but one of the available Ballon d’Ors, the ultimate individual accolade for footballers across the world.

In that time Ronaldo picked up five Champions League wins to Messi’s four, while during the time they shared together in Spain, Barcelona vs Real Madrid became the most anticipated game in club sport.

Now though, with their careers beginning to wind down, Ronaldo is able to look back on their rivalry, and spoke of his respect for the Argentine.

It's good to see that liverpool was taking a fast step to give him new contract, curtis gives lots of contribution to the liverpool as well. He will be on red until 2027 which is very long. It seems like the reds consider him as the most important player for now other than salah.
I hope he can back again to his best performance. The world cup must the right place for him to show his performance again. He may try hard in the world cup.

[Ahli38]

After so many years this is the team and the coach I believe in would make us see Gunners winning trophy. I think they are doing great. They have beaten almost everybody except for United who did played well and had a good plan in that fixture. I think we are gonna do well and will be consistent but it's the big games like game against City about which I am worried about.

I would comfortably bet on Arsenal though against City. I do realize that City is better than Arsenal but there is a good chance that Arsenal could be pulling an upset against City and at this rate, they can pretty much win most of their games against all the other teams. If Manchester United cant win the EPL then Im going for Arsenal to win it this season

Maybe for the current season, Arsenal and Manchester City are equal in winning every game and this is superior to Arsenal, when they play later there is a possibility that Arsenal can win I see that potential because their squad is indeed solid and that is what makes the Gunners only have 1 defeat compared to Manchester City.
This season has great potential for Arsenal and Arteta is credited with doing this if they can get to the end, hopefully, that happens to give Arsenal the dream of lifting a trophy again.

If you look at Manchester city's current strength (before the FIFA world cup) I think Manchester City will be superior. But after I searched about the number of Manchester City players who competed in the World Cup. My thoughts about Manchester City have changed a little because it turns out that Manchester City is the 2nd largest contributor of players from a team in the premier league, namely 15 players. and the first position is Manchester United who contributed 16 players to the World Cup.

And the real concern is when the FIFA World Cup is over. Of course the Manchester City players who returned after defending their respective countries in the World Cup were mentally and physically affected a little. of course they will need a little vacation or rest. and maybe even some players could have suffered injuries after the World Cup. And those things are likely to have a lot of impact on Manchester City.

Arsenal are growing and we can not deny that they already proved they are strong mentally enough to fight with not only opponents but also with pressure from fan expectation, from title competitor like Manchester City and from social media.

Arteta and Arsenal have a very great opportunity in this season because with unbelievable troubles of Liverpool, it looks like the title competition in this season is a dual race between Arsenal and Manchester City. If nothing big change in rest of season, Arsenal will only have to race with Manchester City and it reduces pressure on them. Their chance to win Premier League is bigger too because World Cup can drain energy of players who join it and no doubt Manchester City has many players called for World Cup playing.

If you look at Manchester city's current strength (before the FIFA world cup) I think Manchester City will be superior. But after I searched about the number of Manchester City players who competed in the World Cup.

Manchester City are trying to change their tactics and they try to score goals in much simpler ways than in previous seasons when they did not have a world-class striker like Haaland. The number of players they contribute for World Cup to different teams, would be a fear for Pep Guardiola. World Cup is a biggest tournament every four years and players will play very seriously including bad fouls and tackles that would cause many injuries.

And the real concern is when the FIFA World Cup is over. Of course the Manchester City players who returned after defending their respective countries in the World Cup were mentally and physically affected a little. of course they will need a little vacation or rest. and maybe even some players could have suffered injuries after the World Cup. And those things are likely to have a lot of impact on Manchester City.

They only can hope for the best at their club headquarter. At least, one of good news for them is Haaland does not join World Cup and he will have one month to rest and fully recover from his injury.

Thats because almost every man City player was in a very good form before the world Cup and there's no way they are to miss the world Cup as a result of the good form. Arsenal lack's some people players in who can come from the bench and help fight for the club even Ronaldo has expressed himself on how Arsenal should win the Premier League this season. Thee prayer Arteta should pray should be that they should not come back with injury.

[yudi09]

after the world cup there will be many changes to the players who take part in the performance, with two possibilities they will develop further or the worst possibility they will get injured.

Therein lies the convenience or advantage obtained by the Liverpool manager behind this WC tournament. We can predict that there will be players who will get injured while playing for their national team in the WC. Of course they have a place in the line-up or the main players in the squad.

the role of cheapskate and club management is urgently needed here to be able to improve their performance again.
but if you look at the quality of the squad they have, of course no one doubts they will be able to get up soon.

This is no longer new. Regarding the financial management system, it is an open secret. Many have criticized management's attitude regarding finances, but not entirely to blame considering they have their own reasons for doing so.

And those things are likely to have a lot of impact on Manchester City.

For sure Manchester city have the highest representatives in the World Cup this year but I think with the 5-substitutions added to the tournament, I don’t expect injuries and fatigue to be the topic of the day. Besides Manchester city have a big squad and Pep knows how to rotate his squad to get results also. Unlike Arsenal that have only one team; the first team. And 9 out of their first team players are participating in the tournament. If something happens to any of them, considering the position they’re in currently, it’s will hurt their project and the efforts they’ve been putting in to get results because they don’t have depth in the squad and that’s why it’s of a disadvantage to Arsenal than this Manchester city side.

[Hyphen(-)]

Thats because almost every man City player was in a very good form before the world Cup and there's no way they are to miss the world Cup as a result of the good form.

Arsenal has also given their all, as they were able to send eight players to the World Cup despite their young age. Because Arsenal is a team of young boys with a bright future in football, failing to qualify for the World Cup this time is not a big deal because they will do so in future.

Arsenal lack's some people players in who can come from the bench and help fight for the club even Ronaldo has expressed himself on how Arsenal should win the Premier League this season. Thee prayer Arteta should pray should be that they should not come back with injury.

Every team's dream is to have an injury-free season, and I believe Arsenal is praying for the same thing as Manchester City, regardless of their squad depth, because they have some key players who are very important to the team, and if they get injured, it will affect the team.

Congratulation to Jones for the long term contract he got from Liverpool management, i think there will be massive positive change in the team after the holiday because Jones is a talented player that has a good record in his past performance. Injury really made Jones to missed many things in this premier league competition that made Liverpool to experienced many defeat from many teams in this season. I believe, there will be improvement after the break because Jones will like to prove to the fans that he is the player that can help Liverpool not to experience poor performance in this premier league competition, and other competitions too.

Curtis Jones is among one of liverpool finest young player currently and also a key player for Jurgen Klopp. Jones is very good with the ball on his foot, very tactical and skill footing. So it's good news for Jones and the club, he's definitely going to prove his self after the world cup, it's just critical injuries that's making him lose form in some seasons. There are countless times i have seen him dribble defenders in league games, he still have enough time to present himself to liverpool, only been consistent in form which triggered good position.

Arsenal is among one of the team that will hoping for good form from their players after the world cup tournament in Qater. Most of the gunners got a call up for the world cup to represent their countries and they will always do their best capabilities to perform brilliantly. Giving the country all they got, and getting injuries will triggered some poor form from arsenal, and they been top of the table will also make more threats from average team in the premier league.

Complete mess, what really has he offered to Liverpool this season, has he win any game as the manof the match where you see him as the most outstanding player in that game? No will be the response, he needs to be laid off the club once he gets done with that one year contract. Jurgen Klopp should change strategies this young players need to do more to he added to the squad. One year extension means they don't have long plans for him

Curtis Jones is from Liverpool academy but until this season he hasn't gets any places to Liverpool lineup for each matches because he lost to compete with other players such as Matic or Tiago which is more experience even for young players Klopp has more trust to played Harvey Elliott or Fabio Carvalho for midfield position but apparently Liverpool still giving chances to prove himself that he deserved to gets long duration contract and indeed i didn't see any impressive performance from Jones even i was remember this season he was into Liverpool lineup while against Nottingham Forest but unfortunately Liverpool ended up with lost result on that match but he is young talented player and extended his contract could be good investment for Liverpool

I hope he can back again to his best performance. The world cup must the right place for him to show his performance again. He may try hard in the world cup.

Sometimes a lot of players perform badly in the league but actually show their best performance in the World Cup. Because indeed the aura of the world cup is clearly very different. Carrying great expectations from their respective countries, which is of course even more motivating. So here I think Curtis Jones with several English players will also do the same and maybe even show his best performance during this world cup. After all, English players did not add much to the new squad, on average it was filled with players who had strengthened the national team for the world title last season.

[SatoPrincess]

I will see new players in Liverpool. Most of Liverpool's players can't play very well, so maybe they won't be able to stay in Liverpool. We can see new players in Liverpool. But it depends on Liverpool team management.  They can keep the players they have now if they want so let's see what happens.

Liverpool should have made a deal to keep Sadio Mane. They are now suffering the consequences of losing Sadio Mane in the summer and despite the signings as suitable replacement they are still struggling to find consistency and balance in the team. I also agree that it was no nice of Klopp to prioritize keeping Salah over Sadio Mane in the team because both players played to well as a pair and had a great partnership, that was the reason they got those amount of goals they got in the league.

I have been wondering how and why Jones is getting this kind of hype as one of the key players of Liverpool. The people in this thread almost confused me to begin think why I have not been watching Liverpool football.
Everything written about Jones in this thread is 100% exaggerated .
Jones is simply a Youngster of Liverpool who has a future in the club, was given an extension because he is a product of Liverpool there is nothing more than this
