Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[BALIK]

Ronaldo's ambition at Man United exceeds his performance this season, as a star player he should set an example without being like a boss. 10 times played 1 goal in the EPL and it's worse that Man United always loses when Ronaldo is played, Ronaldo should understand his situation instead of blaming other people, star players are not bigger than the team and star players will be bigger than the team with his humility and his achievements.

You made me laugh so much with your phrase that "Ronaldo ambition at Manchester United exceeds his performance " lol that is the truth. Ronaldo has many plans on what he will do at his return to Manchester United but his performance and age failed him in the second season.
If Ronaldo gets a new club we will know if it was the problem of the Manchester United coach or it is the under performance of Ronaldo due to age factors.

I hope Ronaldo get a temporary contract at Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in January which should be use to access and compare his performance at the new club with  how he performed in Man Utd, personally I think age is not on his side invariably can't perform optimally at the top level but always feel unhappy when played by Erik Ten Hag that was why he forced his way out of the club, I am sure Ronaldo will try to prove his critics wrong by performing brilliantly for his country in this World Cup possibly to attract offer from some of the top clubs in Europe all eyes will be on him as Portugal battle Ghana today.

Ronaldo can still play at the highest level, it's just that he was unlucky when he chose to join Manchester United, where the team's condition was not good.
I agree if he returns to Real Madrid or to Bayern Munich in a short time. With his physique and abilities, Ronaldo will still be able to make a big contribution if all parties in a team support each other.

Ronaldo is 37 years old but his fitness is still excellent. He can play well. But his performance in the Manchester United team is very bad. He could not adapt to the team well. So he didn't play well with the United squad either. At the same time, it is difficult for him to adapt to the team due to not having a good relationship with the coach.

I would be happy to see Ronaldo with Bayern Munich. The Munich team now needs an exceptional finisher like Ronaldo. I think if Ronaldo joins Bayern Munich he will be able to play consistently well. And maybe even win the Champions League title.

Ronaldo's ambition at Man United exceeds his performance this season, as a star player he should set an example without being like a boss. 10 times played 1 goal in the EPL and it's worse that Man United always loses when Ronaldo is played, Ronaldo should understand his situation instead of blaming other people, star players are not bigger than the team and star players will be bigger than the team with his humility and his achievements.

 

what do you mean ronaldo's ambition outweighs his performance this season? ronaldo is an excellent player and he was fighting for manchester united to have good results, but this last coach did not put ronaldo to play and for that reason ronaldo started to not perform well, how could ronaldo perform well sitting on the bench and just playing a few minutes and in a team where it has serious deficiencies in the attack and in the midfielders and in the defense? some people keep blaming ronaldo for manchester united's poor performance and that's not right, because even when ronaldo doesn't play as much as manchester united has achieved and they score 1 goal and win the game, they don't play well, ronaldo had the courage to give the truth that few people didn't have that courage

Ronaldo ambition is very big, he always wants to be the best among other players. The biggest mistake he made was thinking of himself as the best player Manchester United had, for that reason he made a controversial statement when interviewed by Piers Morgan by attacking Manchester United staff and coaches.
He don't realize he's getting old, his declining quality made Ten Hag not put him in the main squad. After Manchester United and Ronaldo officially split, he can focus on the Portugal national team while making plans to find a new club that is willing to take him in.

ronaldo dropped in performance precisely because this new coach as soon as he joined the team stopped putting ronaldo to play, and even when ronaldo didn't play he realized that manchester united doesn't play well, just see that manchester united hasn't won anything for years, so how is ronaldo wrong? if ronaldo was wrong, manchester united would not be for sale and would have good results without him. the truth hurts, what ronaldo said is true, manchester united needs big changes, and with this current coach i doubt we will see good changes

To be honest Bayern Munich is a good place to be a part of Cristiano Ronaldo's new experience before ending his career in football. But will Bayern Munich agree to take Cristiano Ronaldo from Old Trafford, because recently Munich even released its legendary player Robert Lewandowski whose quality and age are not much different from Ronaldo's.

[rahmad2nd]

So did Manchester United slump just because of Ronaldo? We'll soon see what Manchester United expect in Ronaldo absence and their focus is quite far. So now Ronaldo business with Manchester United is over and there will be no more connection with each other.

Manchester United will move without Ronaldo and maybe without Glazer family too. Anyone wonder that why after the uncensored interview of Ronaldo, Glazer family announced to sale the club. Is it a coincidence or is it because Ronald told something they felt harmful?

Ronaldo is with Portugal to stay focused until the world cup, and Manchester United will not know what ranking they will finish once in the Premier League. Everything will be answered and we will see the results. Wherever Ronaldo is or if he retires, Manchester United will stay on the right track.

Ronaldo now is totally focused for Portugal and his last Word Cup in his career. I don't know that Ronaldo will get back to his right track after a few terrible months. Furthermore, we also know more about his problems with ageing that he will not be able to avoid. World Cup and today match will be a first test for Ronaldo to show that he is still able to play at highest level.

Obviously, Ronaldo will no longer be seen playing with the Red Devils after this world cup ends. but regarding Ronaldo's interview with Piers Morgan, I don't think it has anything to do with reports that Manchester United will be sold. Yes, I think it's just a coincidence. related to the news that Manchester United will be sold, Manchester United launched on their official website. MU will be open to investment options and club sales.

the reason, this step is referred to as one of the new alternative strategies with the ultimate goal of taking advantage of the club's opportunities, both in the field and commercially. so it's clear, with MU's official statement on their website as well as dismissing the link between Ronaldo's interview and Piers Morgan.

Yes, currently Ronaldo is only focusing on his Portugal squad at the Qatar world cup. it seems, this world cup is the last world cup for him as well as a place to prove that he still deserves the title of megastar. however, if his appearance with Portugal does not give good results. I'm not sure, there are big clubs interested in him in January.

For the people who think that Newcastle can join the race to sign Ronaldo, I would like to share this news:

https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-newcastle-united-snub-cristiano-ronaldo-after-16m-late-night-development/

On this source, it is said that Newcastle have no interest in bringing Ronaldo to the team in January. I was surprised to hear about this when I first read it truthfully. Because Newcastle don't have any budget issues as you know. They can buy whatever player they want theoretically. Maybe they didn't want this because of having many strikers in the squad already. They must be happy with Wilson's scoring performance as well. But we are still talking about a legend like Ronaldo. I think it would be better for them to have him in the squad and sell the worst striker in the team currently.

Apart from that we don't know how much Ronaldo would be eager to go there as well. I guess that he wouldn't be eager so much because of Newcastle's not being part of the Champions League.

So far there is no certainty which club will be Ronaldo's next career goal, although there are some issues that say Ronaldo is being approached by MLs, Arab and even Sporting Lisbon clubs but still it is an issue that is still a mystery, if someone says Ronaldo is still it is worth playing for a big team like Bayern Munich of course I agree, but the question now is whether it is possible for Munich to bring in Ronaldo in January? because even though Ronaldo performance is still good, his age and salary will still be a consideration for the club because of course a team like Munich is currently in the phase of regenerating a team with a young squad, so it is unlikely that Munich will consider recruiting Ronaldo later.

I think the main reason for newcastle success is that they rely on all players and not some individuals, they might think that having an important player such as ronaldo would have a negative impact on the team performance, they currently are on the third position and they only lost one game against liverpool they can easily end up in a champions league spot.

I don't think Ronaldo will play for an MLS or Arab club but Lisbon still a possible direction, for a player like Ronaldo it's always a good thing to end the career with the starting club and i think Ronaldo could make this happen given the fact that no strong club is wanting him

I think it is because they already have enough strikers in the squad. Remember they have 3 strikers and bringing Ronaldo will make 4 strikers in the squad. Out of these strikers, 2 of them costed them a little over 100m Euros - Chris Wood (35m) and Alexander Isak (70m). Now Ronaldo is a free agent but unless they sell any of these players I don't think they will go after Ronaldo at all. Selling these strikers will be hard unless Newcastle are willing to take a loss. Chris Wood was nowhere around 35m when Newcastle bought him and it will be very hard to get any kind of interest from other clubs on him. For Isak and Wilson, I don't think Newcastle will be planning to sell them anytime soon. If they are to bring Ronaldo as 4th striker, then it will create a problem with proper game time for other strikers.

For the record both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are not interested in Cristiano Ronaldo, Bayern Munich have communicated that several times, they are not interested in the signature of Cristiano Ronaldo.
They're more focused on getting the deal with the Cameron Striker done.

Robert Lewandoski wasn't released from Bayern Munich, he made a forceful move outta Bayern Munich as refused to pledge his loyalty further with Bayern Munich. His move to Barcelona might be because he wants the to achieve the Ballon d'or at La Liga.
Judging from number of players that has won same from La Liga. Ronaldo, Messi, Modric and recently Karim Benzema.

I'm waiting for how strong Arsenal and Manchester City especially will return from the World Cup break.

It is clear that one of these teams will become the champion unless we see a huge surprise. Honestly I would like to see Arsenal making it to the championship because it has been almost 20 years since they did it the last. Arteta and his students all deserve the title this season as long as they keep up this ambitious performance in the rest of the season too. Manchester City are still a huge threat to them so they will need to deal with this big pressure as strong as possible.

[Rockstarguy]

I don't blame Manchester United for anything,  everything is just Ronaldo fault. Ronaldo is a desperate players. Ronaldo coming to Manchester United he was expecting a lot, after he could not get what he wanted he tried leaving the club by all means but he couldn't get the prefer club he wanted in the summer season.  All this time he already had misunderstandings with ten Hag because of not showing up in the preseason games. Ten Hag not giving him the chance for participating in most games was also a problem. Everything was his fault, he was trying to make decisions for the club.

[Rruchi man]

My biggest hope for my favourite Arsenal is that none of our key players currently representing their country in the world cup will return with injuries because that will be a problem to us going forward to maintain our lead in the EPL. We do not have replacements as Manchester city does, so even if some of their players representing their respective countries are injured, it will not seriously affect their campaign, even their star striker Halaand is having enough time to rest, unlike Most of our attackers who are currently representing their countries and their National teams have even been tipped as teams that will go far, that means they will play a lot and may likely return Fatigued.

Of course there are pros and cons about the Ronaldo and Manchester United situation. But I don't think now is the time to discuss it all because the decision has been achieved and it is no longer possible to change it.

Ronaldo and Manchester United have reached a mutual agreement for the good of each other, now Ronaldo just needs to find another club and Manchester United are gearing up for the challenge of this season regardless of whether they want to buy a new striker or not. About Ronaldo's new club, it looks like the rumors to Napoli are very strong, but I still want him to play for one of the Premier League teams.

It will be hard for us if our players get injured especially in attack line like Saka, Martinelli, Jesus who have been crucial behind Arsenal's success this season so far. Although we do have options but obviously will lack the quality and form that we are having right now with these three. With 5 points between us and City we obviously don't want to lose our momentum and lose our lead on the table.

The three important players you mentioned are indeed in their best form this season. If two of these three players are injured, then I believe Arsenal's attack power will be completely different and weaker. Of course Arsenal need to anticipate unwanted things, especially regarding injuries to important players, but even if they do have to be injured then in my opinion Arsenal have a commensurate stock to replace the player. It won't be a big deal.

Arsenal must maximize matches where opponents are weaker to gain maximum points. This is the best way to always be ahead of Manchester City and other competitors because Arsenal are still worried about loss points in big matches.

Although Rumours might be deceiving but they were actually strong rumours towards united last game against Fulham, that Bayern officials were in Manchester to meet with Ronaldo representatives.

Concerning Real Madrid it was actually Ronaldo that offered himself to the team for a Rumoured 6 months contract.

Although its all rumours but as days go buy we will see more of them and after the world we will know the concrete ones

There is no point in blaming one of the parties in a polemic. Even if I have to blame I prefer to blame both. Cristiano Ronaldo decided to return to Manchester United too because of the many influential people to make the transfer, because at first he almost made a deal with his city rivals Manchester City. On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo also can't give anything optimal, the age factor can't be denied has made a change in his appearance unlike young.
I didn't expect that they would end up in this kind of trouble, because both of us know they have a very deep emotional bond. It's a shame of course, but maybe this is the best way for Manchester United and Cristiano Ronaldo.

I will blame SIr Alex Ferguson for all his ordeal. He was already set to move to Manchester City with all arrangement ready before he got the call from Sir and had to respect it. The annoying part is Sir Alex was no where to be found when his hard times in United began uptil when his contract got terminated. I am glad he is happily playing in the WC and has recorded his 36th goal. I hope Napoli finalises their deal with him because he will be far better in the seria A

I personally think they will still be the same for now, especially with the advantages of their current players and good teamwork, this clearly makes them still very favored and I feel that even after the international break it will still be like that.
To be honest, I expected a lot from Arsenal this season, but if they can't talk much and can't maintain their current position, it's already progress for them, even though there is still hope of a championship.
