Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Die_empty]

Newcastle are one team that’s given me surprises this season, its amazing how they have transformed fr relegation battling side to be at the top 3 spot in the league. It's even more surprising how they have managed to face top teams and even beaten some. Howe is really doing a good job putting this team together and competing against top teams in the league although I still have a lot of doubts they can hold up until the end.

The takeover of Newcastle by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund was the turning point of the club. Mike Ashley the former owner of the club did not have enough funds to compete with richer teams in the Premier League that was why the club was struggling. The Saudi group have invested so much on the club that they have some quality players that can compete with other top players. Coach Eddie Howe have been able to utilize the players at his deposal to produce the result the management expected. 

I am sure that Arteta is the reason for this success, he brought discipline to the team and in addition, do not forget about the strengthening that Arsenal made in the transfer market, all this in a complex gave an excellent result. Arsenal are capable of consistently finishing this season, but City should not be underestimated, Guardiola knows how to get out of difficult situations and Arsenal's lead is not so big that it says that they have no chance left.

Mikel Arteta have been able to learn technically skills very fast because he has really improved. Last season was not a good one for the Arsenal team but the management of the club had confidence in Mikel. They kept on giving him all the morale and financial support that he needs and today the club is reaping from their patience. The Arsenal team has shown that they have the capacity to win the premier league because they have been able to defeat some top clubs in the premiership. And it is likely that the club would be bringing in new player in January to improve the team's performance.

I'm not sure why Chelsea chose to sign Aubameyang from Barcelona; he has less of a chance of succeeding in Premier League football because he lacks the necessary strength to work hard and get the ball past the defense the way he did for Arsenal in the past. Without these attributes, players like Aubameyang are worthless on the field.

I do think that decision of signing Aubameyang was only made by Thomas Tuchel, and not Chelsea entirely. The managemet of Chelsea sealed that deal due Tuchel request to buy him as at that time. The Problem with Aubameyang is age and laziness to contend the ball with the defenders.
Not only Aubameyang is on laxity at Chelsea and in the front line, what about Raheem sterling?, in fact all Thomas Tuchel signings during last widows transfer open , are yet to live up to expectation.

Should I say that signing Aubameyang and Sterling as Chelsea forwards was one of the worst decisions Tuchel made at Chelsea? I'm curious as to why he prefers signing those individuals as Chelsea strikers over loaning out far superior players like Wayne and Lukaku who outperform them.

I applaud Potter's search for better players to add to Chelsea's squad before the January transfer window opens. Keep Sterling and Aubameyang on the sidelines for a while so they can sit up and play better.

What Chelsea needs right now is a good midfielder's to partnership with Italian player Jorginho who have been a stand out player for Chelsea. Aubameyang is not t really good he is a complete old player who doesn't deserve a young team filled with young players as mason mount and Chiwell. The rebuild needs to begin from midfielder's and then to attack, Ziyech as a winger won't do enough for Chelsea

[Spack17]

Aubameyang shouldn't have come to Chelsea in the first place. But I understand him of course. Because he wasn't going to have much time to play anymore at Barcelona after they signed Lewandowski. Aubameyang wanted to be a regular starter at Chelsea instead. However his performance is not even near the one he had at Barcelona. Maybe he isn't fitting the Premier League from now on. Otherwise I don't see anything else to explain this with.

This season might not end very well for them but they should at least be able to fight for top 4. It would be a big disappointment for the fans to see their team not even joining the Champions League. They are focused on finalizing the Nkunku deal as well. I hope that they won't be spending a lot of money in vain in case Nkunku has problems with adaptation.

I hope that they won't be spending a lot of money in vain in case Nkunku has problems with adaptation.

I think Aubameyang is not as bad as you think and also, Aubameyang's move to Chelsea at that time the coach was still Tuchel. At least Aubameyang and Tuchel also worked together while playing and training Dortmund, so Aubameyang's arrival to Chelsea at that time was indeed a good moment for Aubameyang and Tuchel.
But unfortunately, it wasn't long before Aubameyang arrived at Chelsea and then Tuchel was sacked without any prior issues.

Of the six Premier League matches played by Aubameyang, in fact Aubameyang was able to provide one goal. I think that's better than Armando Broja who got 12 games but only has one goal in the Premier League so far.
Also, Aubameyang has two goals and an assist in the Champions League, a record like this as an old player I don't think is bad at all for Aubameyang.

But indeed, it is difficult for Chelsea to return to the top four this season, but this sharp decline is not due to Aubameyang. Because the Chelsea coach is also new, so maybe it's natural for Chelsea not to be able to maintain its position in the top four.
Regarding new players who will certainly be recruited, I think that is also a form of gambling, because they will not know whether these new players will quickly adapt or not at Chelsea later.

[Pokapoka124]

Graham Potter, who was expected to make many changes and bring fresh air to Chelsea until now, in fact, has not shown any progress in that direction, in fact, I see Chelsea getting worse. Indeed, at first he showed something that looked like it would be a good change in the future, but over time they even got worse with their last 5 matches without a win. It is very difficult for Chelsea fans to accept.
I feel he will have the same fate as Thomas Tuchel who will be thrown out by management. And also I think Chelsea's decision to sack Thomas Tuchel was a hasty decision. Because from what I have seen, Thomas Tuchel still really deserves to be given the opportunity to hold the Chelsea squad.

I think it is still too early to start panicking about Potter, this is his first season for Chelsea and barely three months into his contract and so far he has done something that looks like an improvement in the team. The transfer window is still yet to come and so much expectations but we should wait and see how well he performance in the transfer window and after before criticizing him already.

But unfortunately, it wasn't long before Aubameyang arrived at Chelsea and then Tuchel was sacked without any prior issues.

There isn't much of a difference between Potter's style of play and Tuchel's, and aside from that, Potter gave Aubameyang the opportunity he needed to establish himself as a striker who fans can count on as their new No. 9.

Of the six Premier League matches played by Aubameyang, in fact Aubameyang was able to provide one goal. I think that's better than Armando Broja who got 12 games but only has one goal in the Premier League so far.
Also, Aubameyang has two goals and an assist in the Champions League, a record like this as an old player I don't think is bad at all for Aubameyang.

Broja and Aubameyang are in two different classes when it comes to exposure and experience in football, both in the Premier League and the Champions League. For other strikers to come to the Premier League and perform poorly does not mean Aubameyang, who has so many years experience at Arsenal, will perform similarly. I simply believe it was a bad decision and he has joined the wrong team.

But indeed, it is difficult for Chelsea to return to the top four this season, but this sharp decline is not due to Aubameyang. Because the Chelsea coach is also new, so maybe it's natural for Chelsea not to be able to maintain its position in the top four.
Regarding new players who will certainly be recruited, I think that is also a form of gambling, because they will not know whether these new players will quickly adapt or not at Chelsea later.

Graham Potter needed enough time to add his favorite players to the Chelsea squad and also made some changes to Chelsea's pattern of play in order to move the team forward and compete for the League another season, but it's too late for them this season. Although they can compete for the top four, I know it will be extremely difficult.

[Slow death]

I see some people who are still staying positive about the possibility of Liverpool to become the champions. But it doesn't seem any realistic to me at all. Because their performance so far has been quite inconsistent and it has caused them to get far away from the leader. There is already a gap like 15 points now. It is possible mathematically but it doesn't seem like that from a logical point of view. There are two big contenders for the league title now. They are Arsenal and Manchester City.

Even if one of these contenders start playing badly and getting bad results the other one would be motivated to take advantage of the situation. Hence it would still be too hard for Liverpool to catch up with the leader. Klopp should just focus on maintaining a long-running winning streak to get into a strong shape again.

Lol it will take a miracle for Liverpool to end up as league champions this season. Their slow start to the season has been detrimental to their success this season, Manchester city and Arsenal have quite a huge gap from Liverpool and it will not be easy at all to close up this gap. Liverpool are nowhere close to been champions this season they can only battle for the top four spot.

Liverpool has 22 points and being realistic with this current team they don't have much chance of finishing in the 4th position, I sincerely doubt that even with changes in the team they won't be able to finish in the 4th position because there are many strong teams this season, the difference this season is that newcastle is strong and also tottenham is performing well this season, adding the fact that arsenal is very strong and at the top of the table then makes liverpool have to try hard to occupy position 4 or superior, there is manchester united that also improve can be another obstacle for liverpool

It will be a tough job for Jurgen Klopp, to bring Liverpool to finish in the top 4 of the Premier League. despite the fact, like it or not Klopp has to try and bring his troops to finish in the top 4 until the end of this season. if not, then his career with Liverpool is likely to end until this season. except, Klopp was able to bring the Champions League trophy to Anfield, the headquarters of The Red. it's just that, it seems that the scenario is also very difficult to realize.

However, the league schedule still has 24 games remaining until the end of the season. Klopp still has a chance, on the condition that Liverpool must appear at their best and be stable. even so, I'm still optimistic Liverpool will finish in the top 4 until the end of this season.

because IMO, it is not yet time for Newcastle to compete in the champions league next season.
Newcastle will find it difficult to maintain their performance and consistency until the end of this season ends. maybe in the next season, Newcastle can compete in the top flight of the premier league.

2 giant clubs in the Premier League are now rumored to be sold, Liverpool and Manchester United. The news of Manchester United's own sale emerged after Cristiano Ronaldo appeared in the media in an interview and explained the internal problems that Manchester United are currently facing. The Glazers have owned Manchester United since 2005, and it will now be the end of the Glazers' regime if Manchester United is sold.
The news from the Arab Prince has returned to being the name that will buy Manchester United, if that really happens then more and more Arabs will become owners of Premier League clubs, like the last time they became owners of Newcastle United.

I will say Ronaldo have brought redemption to Manchester United, I'm sure the fans of the club will be very excited on hearing about this new development that the Glazers are finally agreeing to sell the club out. I'm not so sure about that of Liverpool but I think the reason should be because football is evolving and it is expected that every club should also move along with the latest developments which this club owners are failing to upgrade to and causing the club problems.

Cristiano Ronaldo really should leave Manchester United. He is not getting the respect he deserves at this club. Since this club is not giving him the opportunity to play more matches, he needs to join another club to keep his career going. So that he can finish the last life of his football career well.

I know that this has been discussed many times and the decision is final, friend. So there is nothing to connect Ronaldo and Manchester United anymore. Regardless of who is at fault, maybe both can be blamed from a neutral point of view, but most opinions will come from 2 camps (Ronaldo supporters and Manchester United supporters). It's natural for Ronaldo to express his annoyance, but it's worth remembering he has a huge impact on the world, and what he says will have a significant impact, both negatively and positively. Manchester United has terminated his contract, and Ronaldo fate is still uncertain which club he will join or whether he should retire.

Are you living in our own world, Ronaldo already left Manchester United about two weeks ago, his contract was mutually terminated; thus the both parties no longer have anything in common, the club disrespected Ronaldo, and he did the same to them, so it is fair enough that they have parted ways, now the both parties can concentrate on themselves, Manchester United can focus on their long season ahead, whilst Ronaldo can focus on his career, try getting himself a new club and challenge himself to greater heights.

now it's better not to develop the rumors created by the media regarding Ronaldo and MU. MU is currently more focused on getting players they can make machine goals on the front lines. currently, MU has not got it. they can try to find in next year's transfer market. but there are also problems related to the sale of MU shares that will be carried out. I don't know if this is a good moment or not. but this could have a very big impact on MU's performance in the remaining half of the season.

Meanwhile for Ronaldo, currently there is a lot of news regarding offers from Arab clubs who are willing to pay him very dearly. but maybe Ronaldo has to bury his intention to play in the Champions League.

In this case it is true but on the other hand as one of the big clubs with several previous achievements, there are big expectations for Potter especially this season is definitely a season of comparison whether he is indeed ready with conditions as a replacement for Tuchel or not because it is still only in this season although early but he is one of the real comparisons for Tuchel in this season.

On the other hand, at this time, I may be expecting too much from the condition of the players, but this is quite reasonable because this must be done so that he doesn't just sit idly by when the current conditions occur.

He's @Fritwakky acting like he just heard this news, we've covered it for almost two pages in this thread. Spammers like him will continue to write useless things to earn a few bucks from scam sites that are banned in forums. The news of Ronaldo's split with Manchester United was reported almost a week ago, there is no need to talk about this again and again.

Ronaldo is now officially without a club, his status as a free transfer player has made many clubs interested in signing him. I think Ronaldo has to stay in the Premier League with other clubs like Chelsea and Newcastle, he has to prove to Manchester United that at his old age he can still make a good contribution to the club.

It looks difficult for Liverpool to penetrate the top 4 in the standings table. There's been a lot of difference this season from a number of teams that are on a good run for competition. On the other hand, Liverpool are in a worrying condition with the instability they show in the game. They are 15 points behind the leaders of the standings, and 7 points behind 4th place which is now held by Tottenham. Meanwhile, the teams occupying that position are more promising than Liverpool at the moment.

[el kaka22]

It would be really shameful if Arsenal somehow dropped out of top 4 but it is also not impossible neither. They had a great season so far and if they somehow start to suck and start losing a lot of games then they could very well go out of top 4.

This isn't unique, we have seen teams that lead the league after 10-15 weeks that end up with lower points and this could be similar for Arsenal as well, even if they end up losing like 50% of their games that means out of top 4 for sure, and I am not even talking about for rest of the season, if they lose 5 out of 10, they will be out of top 4 for sure. That is why it is quite important to be good but more important to be consistent.

Even in this case, I'm actually too bored to discuss it because it's always the same discussion between Ronaldo and Manchester United but it's still always being discussed even though the conclusions are still the same now.
I think this should be abandoned immediately, especially in this case we are talking about the EPL, of course we are discussing all the news that is not for individuals and for one club only.
But the longer this discussion always appears again and again.

I think the Glazer family's decision is different from Ronaldo's case and indeed this cannot be linked to because indeed from the time Ronaldo was there the pressure from the fans to the top officials from Manchester United to sell actually existed because it was considered that they only wanted profit at Manchester United.
As for Liverpool, in fact the case is almost the same because the officials there are considered too stingy to spend money by some fans from Liverpool so now it looks like this will be realized but the problem now is who will be at the forefront because until now there has been no further news from the news.

[Distraction]

I wonder if Conte would be permanent here depending on Tottenham's performance in the rest of the season. There has been some drop in their performance recently. I mean that it has been like that especially in big matches. But I still don't think that this will create any domino affect on them. Conte is a very experienced and qualified manager. He should be able to create a solution for their performance in this kind of matches as well. The job they have done so far must be satisfying for the fans. But they have a potential to do better than this also.

There were some rumours before like Juventus would have brought him to the job after Allegri's bad run for some time. But it stayed as rumours. Besides Juventus have more serious problems to deal with these days.
