Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Zilon]

Alex Ferguson is one of the legendary coaches Manchester United has ever had, so it won't be easy for Erik Ten Hag to repeat the same success as what Fergi achieved. I think if he is willing to come back to coaching then everyone will support him and hope he delivers something that he has given in the past. Even though I wouldn't say no to Erik Ten Hag who might have achieved that success, it would have taken several seasons for him to at least match what Fergi did.

Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Winger are two of the most famous Premier League coaches in history.
Ten Hag has only recently started and is still settling in, but comparing what he can do to what Alex Ferguson has already done for the club is not something we should do right now. Ten Hag has a long way to go because Sir Alex has set so many records in the team that will take any coach a long time to break.

Honestly the kind of record that Sir Alex Ferguson kept in Manchester united is something to be compared withTen Hag to achieve,  any incoming coach will find very difficult to break.

The Problem to Manchester united is not only coach , players too has their contribution to the problem that Man United is facing. The major solution is rebuilding the team with young talented players that respect and have this understanding with any coach that Sir Ferguson had in man United for things to work well.

Every coach has their own strength and weaknesses. Sir Alex was privileged to coach manu when they had one of the best teams in the Premier League. There were so good that their second ix could play with any club comfortably. The likes of Paul Scholes, Ryan Gigs, Evra, Rooney, Carrick and more.

After then Sir left a bunch of lazy and self acclaimed players for new coaches to work on. I believe Hag will do a good job at united which he has already begun all he need is time to build his team and when he is done Sir's record will be history.

Judging by the amount that PSG is offering (a million a week), Rashford will agree. And this causes conflicting feelings in me: firstly, the cheating PSG continues to kill football with oil money, secondly, I am happy for Rashford financially, but in terms of ambitions, moving to PSG is like moving to a talent graveyard. I would like Rashford to stay at United, but objectively he is not worth that kind of money.

I would not say a talent graveyard,when you are in the middle of so many talented players you have to show your value in order to have a place in the team.I think it is the correct upgrade for PSG as they need a really good midfielder/attacker/wing player now especially for the Champions League stages more than for the Ligue 1 because there PSG is on another planet.

Manchester United will also benefit a huge financial package by this move so this to me looks more like a win win situation than anything else so I hope to see him in PSG next year.

Firstly, Rashford has a contract with United until 2023, so PSG will get him for free and United will get exactly zero profit from Rashford's departure.

Secondly, name at least one player who progressed in PSG? Mostly ready-made stars come there and they do not develop. Remember who Ronaldo was at United? And how much did he improve (although it seemed hard to be better) when he moved to Real Madrid? I don't remember any such story about PSG. Even when I look at Mbappe who is undeniably talented, I understand that he is just wasting time in the farm league. He is almost a two-time world champion and at the same time he is noname at the club level.

After Sir Alex, no 1 trainer has succeeded in making United a top team. And there have been quite a few names at the helm in recent years, such as Mourinho and van Gaal. And neither of them could break ground with United. But how is it that this team has been so passed by teams like Manchester City and Chelsea? Chelsea weren't that much 10 years ago and now they're better than United. Should you then see if there is something wrong with United's policy? That could be, but it could also be that other teams have become much stronger through the possibilities of sponsoring wealthy organizations and owners.

ya.ya.yo!

He is the best in history for Man utd and showed that for a long period of time. After his leave for Man Utd was just terrible they just barely won anything. Only Mourinho has done something small other have just ruined the club and their ownership management needs to change fast

[Furious 7]

Hmm many players who are rumored to be joining Manchester United but nothing can be confirmed so far only news and rumors
Previously I also heard that they would not be active in the upcoming transfer market except looking for a replacement for players who will move

It's not too strange because if we look at last season's transfers it was also like this but indeed in the end sometimes unexpected things happen and seeing Ten Hag's preferences now I personally wouldn't be too surprised when this transfer will be another Dutch player who will become retainers from Manchester United especially at this time there are indeed several young Dutch players who are also being monitored by them.

Speaking of Dutch players, Van Dijk of Liverpool is also having a mediocre season so far. It's not just his fault, of course, that Liverpool are not doing well, but in Liverpool's championship season he was unbeatable in defence. Klopp has been asked left and right whether he still wanted to stay at Liverpool. I don't know who else should coach Liverpool. And that's only Liverpool's first mediocre season. In recent years they have also played great in the competition and performed in general.

Your response does not make sense with the previous discussion friend. Try to make things work because I was talking about Manchester United not about Van Dijk and Liverpool.

For quite some years now Chelsea have been struggling with form and lacking good attacking players. The departure of Lukaku, Timo werner, and now injured Broja have left a wide gap in Chelsea's attack that needs someone to fill in immediately for the team. I hear they are very much interested in Victor Osimhen but I doubt Napoli will be open to selling him in the January window.

Apart from anything, even if there are strikers at Chelsea, I think that the Tuchel era did not develop there because most of the strikers in the Tuchel era really failed in my opinion.
On the other hand, the current management issue and the differences between the top officials there are still having an effect, so I don't think this is a good season for Chelsea.

This was the golden generation and Alex Ferguson was very lucky to have worked with such talented players. I don’t know how ten Hag can do it, you see now the times of quick results, many of the coaches don’t even get a season to build their game in the team, and these are all very complex processes, adaptation of new players, implementation of the coach’s strategy, and it's all very hard work. Ten Hah brought a lot of players from Ajax, so the moment of understanding will be passed much faster, in general, he has a chance, but so far everything is not as beautiful as we would like.

[terrorJR]

Joao Felix is a player who can be really helpful for Manchester United in the attacking side. He is a really talented striker but Atletico Madrid are preparing to part their ways with him anyway. Maybe he hasn't been one of the players Simeone likes to see in his lineup considering his strategies. I think Felix is great for especially teams that love to play attacking focused.

Manchester United like to play an offensive football this season and the thing they lack has been some finishing skills. They could have scored many more goals so far. I hope they can finish the Felix deal before some other teams intervene.

I don't think, Manchester united will miss this opportunity to bring in Joao Felix the talented striker that has a good record in his formal team, and he is ready to serve Manchester united well if the opportunity is there for him in this season. If Manchester united manager can do everything possible within his power, to sign in Joao Felix to replace cristiano Ronaldo in the attacking area, I think there will be massive improvement after the FIFA world cup competition. Manchester united defense and midfield are very solid in this season because their coach has done everything possible to ensure they make their defense and midfield secured so that it will allow their strikers to display well.

I think it's still doable but a little pushy.
Currently, Jorge Mendes has left for England to discuss this matter, but on the other hand there are several statements saying that Manchester United does not really want the player and prefers the players they are after, such as Gakpo or Dumfries. But that doesn't mean it can't happen because Morata's presence has clearly eliminated Joao now and won't be comfortable for him.

Tottenham have been continuing to disappoint their fans without titles for many years. Since they built a strong squad with new generation players they haven't been able to achieve a single title in any tournament. They have only two titles in the Premier League history which were in 1950/51 and 1960/61 seasons. This is really bad for a team like them. Maybe they didn't have this much strong squad in their hands in the past but they do have now. Harry Kane's motivation to leave the team was also this.

I won't doubt his starting to wish to leave the team again in case they don't achieve anything this season also. I don't feel like they can win either the Premier League title or the Champions League one. Winning an FA Cup title or so might not be satisfying enough for Kane to stay. He just wanted to believe in Conte and give one more chance to Tottenham.

Even though I wouldn't say no to Erik Ten Hag who might have achieved that success, it would have taken several seasons for him to at least match what Fergi did.

We have seen several coaches who have coached Manchester United since Alex Ferguson retired, none of their performances have been able to last long, Alex Ferguson has coached Manchester United for 27 years and the many trophies he has presented to the red devils. for Erik Ten Hag repeating Ferguson success would seem quite difficult and impossible to do. But what Erik has to do is bring Manchester United back strong and be able to return to enliven the Champions League competition. Therefore, Erik Hag will focus the rest of the matches this season on winning and winning so he can close the season in the top 4.

We all know that the achievements of Sir Alex Ferguson with The Red Devils cannot be compared to the coaches after him. because it is impossible to happen, in the shortest possible time. meanwhile, David Moyes is the coach appointed directly by Ferguson. in fact, he flopped and only lasted 10 months with United.

On the other hand, the only Man United coach who has clear progress is Erik Ten Hag. Ten Hag, has a proven track record with Ajax Amsterdam. and for Man United at the moment, Erik Ten Hag's side are in pretty good shape and have a pattern already on track. it's just that, United's current problem is not having a sharp pure sticker after Ronaldo's departure from Old Trafford. and if, Ten Hag is getting a newcomer next January. I am quite optimistic, Manchester United can compete with the top top clubs in the Premier League.

manchester united is about to face a new era and their team is already strong enough. it's just that management is not too selfish for what has happened so far. cr7 is gone and erik has been able to run unhindered which is stronger when it comes to conclusions. erik started this project well enough he was able to bring back an interesting form of play at manchester united. Manchester United may be hungry for the title and that is a big burden that must be completed by Erik this season.

they have a chance in the europa league, of course, big hopes will be good enough for erik if he manages to bring manchester united to win the europa league. There's nothing to compare Erik's performance with Ferguson because Erik and other coaches will find it difficult to break Ferguson record at Manchester United.

[Pokapoka124]

Maybe Ten Hag is trying to find new players who have a background from the Netherlands who seem to have better playing abilities, but Ten Hag is still trying to keep looking for players who are young but have very good playing skills so that when on the field he will being very aggressive for Manchester United.

Ten Hag will be another version of Louis Van Gaal in Old Trafford. It is reasonable when a coach wants to work with their previous teams (medical staffs, scouts for example) and with favorite players in their previous club.

With Ten Hag, Manchester United will likely have a next few seasons with bright future for their young players from Carrington and their academy. The Dutch coach has good record to give opportunities for young players in Ajax Amsterdam and grow them up. Van de Beek, Frankie de Jong, Mathis de Ligt, Ziyech and a few more players became star players with training and guide from Ten Hag.

A two most possible players from Netherlands can join Manchester United are Memphis Depay and Cody Gakpo. What do you think about these Dutch players? One is old and one is young.

Well you have said it all about Erik Ten Hag and his similar transfer style likened to Luis Van Gaal's style. It is normal to see managers moving to a new club to carry his staff and coaching crew along to the new club but to be sincere I don't see any possibility of Memphis Depay returning back to united after a failed spell at Manchester United, it is possible that Gakpo could make a move but Depay is a doubt.

Until now there were no recent news for Newcastle target players because this team were lack of rumours to upcoming transfer window but to support the current squad in my opinion they have to buy at least one or two famous players and i think it's necessary because after international break ended Premier League will be more competitive because i am sure some of big teams such as Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool or Chelsea will attempts to improved their weaknesses with buy new players
But at least Newcastle has successfully to gets Australian youngster Garang Kuol from Central Coast Mariners that this could be potential buying especially after he makes his debut match on world cup and he also recognized as one of the youngest player who makes his debut in this tournament in the history after Pele

I'm expecting the January transfer window to be as active and busy as the previous summer window. A lot of teams have fallen short of expectation in the first part of the season and will try to strengthen their sides in January do It is expected that teams will be active and Newcastle is no exception in this list. Even Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and even Manchester United are expected to be active in the window.

Newcastle is likely to surprise us in the transfer market, although so far there has been no accurate information regarding player purchases. With Newcastle position that has won third place in the standings, this certainly encourages this club to further improve the players on the front lines. At least maybe next January there will be news of a player who has been on Newcastle's radar for a long time. The Premier League competition is getting tougher, and Newcastle's struggle to qualify is the motivation that a club as rich as them still deserves a famous player.

Jefferson Lerma and Enzo Fernandez are probably under the radar of Newcastle United. I am not sure about this news, but I can certainly say that with the money which Newcastle United have right now, they can pull off some interesting transfers.

And I also agree with @hyudien that Newcastle United is going to surprise us in the transfer market this time. I am quite sure that they are going to bring in some big names to the squad. A reason for that is they are currently in the third position on the table. This is a big chance for them to prove that they are also a worthy competitor in the English Premier League. But staying in the third position is obviously not going to be easy at all. And honestly, I have my doubts that they will actually be able to do that.

But what Erik has to do is bring Manchester United back strong and be able to return to enliven the Champions League competition. Therefore, Erik Hag will focus the rest of the matches this season on winning and winning so he can close the season in the top 4.

That is why it will be difficult for everyone to expect Manchester United to return to its former glory anytime soon. There has been no coach who has really been able to make Manchester United able to reach the pinnacle of success like his past with Ferguson, this has been proven since Ferguson retired from coaching.

Manchester United has so far tended not to put longer trust in the same coach if at the end of the season the coach does not win the title. Even Mourinho, who we know as one of the greats, couldn't do that, but Ten Hag might make a bit of a difference.

In my opinion, Erik Ten Hag is the right person to restore the glory of Manchester United. But it's impossible for a manager to award titles quickly. If the management and United fans can be patient and think realistically then I'm sure Ten Hag will be able to do a good job.

Right now I see Ten Hag building a strong team framework. The proof is that he doesn't care about star players like Ronaldo, for him any player who doesn't respect his decisions is always an open door. Ten Hag is very strict and disciplined, this indicates he is very serious in dealing with the Red Devils.

[izsara]

When Newcastle United was bought, I thought that there would be a star player transfer, but instead of a star football player, players who were suitable for the team were preferred. People outside of England can name football players from teams such as Chelsea, Manu, Arsenal, but I don't think this is valid for Newcastle.
I think Newcastle owners will buy a famous star player during the interim transfer period.

They are aware that there is time for this because they cannot immediately bring in several players who can be said to be star players, especially with their current condition even though money is indeed an important factor but the players also clearly need better competition and in fact it is only a matter of time when they can be in the Europa League or the best possible in the Champions League it can seduce some big players of course with a big enough salary too.

[borovichok]

I think the premier League is very open, I don't think arsenal will win the league,I don't know why I feel so but I don't think they will still have momentum that they have before the break,I think Manchester city are the favourite to win the league, they have the qualities and depth in the squad, Tottenham Hotspur will improve,with Conte experience I think they will go far,then Manchester United I still don't know what they are made up,let's wait and see after the Ronaldo sagas I think things might be different.

[Docnaster]

I think Manchester City will still become the champion. After the failure, they are likely to be quite active again in the transfer market and will be more balanced along the lines this season.

Speaking about the transfer market, one can only go to the market on two conditions.
1) to buy what he doesn't have
2) to sell what he no more makes use of.
If I may ask, is there any man city player that is not doing well, you will agree with me that there isn't; and truly , Manchester City has the best squad in England. They have spent enough, but I can say they selected well. It is only left for the team's management and the coach to maintain these players in their best way, and the result will always be positive.

[Oluwa-btc]

After the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson, David Moyes was job not the man for the club as the job was just too big for him to handle like he did with Everton, bringing in Juan Mata and Fellani the former Everton and Belgium player.
To cut the long story short about David Moyes, he didn't excel as his tactics and also the board didn't invest in the players he wanted for the club.

Louis Van Gaal should have been a long term Coach but he wasn't back to rebuild the squad, good players he brought in only to achieve the FA Cup. Jose Mourinho was wonderful, Man United reached them best position since the loss of Sign Alex Ferguson. Jose Mourinho tried but wasn't backed by Glazer's

[emrecemsan]

It is still early to be confident about any team to win the Premier League title. Actually I feel confident about one thing at least. I don't expect any other team than Arsenal and Manchester City to become the champions this season. Because I don't see that ambition in especially the remaining big teams of the league. I'm aware of Newcastle's rise in the league now but it is doubtful for them to maintain this effort until the end of the season. They might need to make some moves in the coming transfer window to stay solid in the other half of the season as well.

It would be really fascinating if we see Arsenal making it to the title. I think it is better to experience a different excitement rather than seeing the usual team dominating the league once again. Arsenal's job is really hard though. Especially after Jesus' injury they need to make up for this issue somehow.

[baeva]

I think the premier League is very open, I don't think arsenal will win the league,I don't know why I feel so but I don't think they will still have momentum that they have before the break,I think Manchester city are the favourite to win the league, they have the qualities and depth in the squad, Tottenham Hotspur will improve,with Conte experience I think they will go far,then Manchester United I still don't know what they are made up,let's wait and see after the Ronaldo sagas I think things might be different.

You make it sound like Arsenal won't even be in the top 4 or top 5, trust me, the mood certainly won't get worse and maybe it will even become more confident and they will lose and draw less. At the moment any defeat puts them in an uncomfortable position in the standings, which is why things will be in flux for the rest of the season, just like last season
