Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

The question should not only be the time that Graham potter has not received as new Chelsea manager, we also consider why the time was not meant for Tuchel. The American style of laying of staff of newly acquired organisation is not fair. Manchester United had the same problems with Glaciers when they came in

I cannot believe that Ronaldo, even after scoring so many goals, had a season with United where they sucked, and as soon as he left, United is back at UCL positions. Sure they are still nowhere near to win a title level yet, they would need a season or two to get there with some good additions and so forth. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a situation where it looks like they are improving.

At this moment, it appears so. Manchester United do seem to be on track and now, its to see how far they could hold this up. I do not entirely blame Ronaldo for his performance at United though. Its hard for him most especially as per having conflicting thoughts, playing for a team you don't believe in or don't want to be in. You don't get to give your best that way, not when your out looking for trophies to your ne and your sight already shows nothing ahead.

Now, Eric Ten Hag has found a way to unite his team and make them encourage discipline within themselves such that, they are wholesome on the pitch each time, wants to play and give there best with every minute.  That's how Manchester United is succeeding and let's hope a few loses won't break there spirit.

Losing 1-0 in the Premier League, and now they have to lose 4-0, not getting better but their situation getting worse when facing the same team. In a hurry, maybe that's the right word to describe how Chelsea's management made the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel.

Indeed, I think with Chelsea this is not surprising. We already know very well how Chelsea's condition this season. Even against small clubs, they often get in trouble and can't play to their full potential. Let's just see how the results of the match have performed so far, they have lost more often. Chelsea needs a lot of overhaul on various fronts. And this season has been a really bad season for them because of their own performance and bad management.

I think changing managers very often is not a healthy way of making that team better in time. We have seen many examples of it so far as well. Therefore I think Liverpool and Manchester City are doing the right thing by continuing with Klopp and Guardiola now. Both of them are amazing managers now and they both have a great bond with the players after all these years.

Maybe Klopp is having struggles with making Liverpool better this season. But these are all in football in the end and they will hopefully leave these bad days behind at a point.

When someone has power then they are free to do anything and this applies to Todd.
Before Tuchel was sacked, we knew that there had been some feud between Todd and Tuchel and the longer it went on, the bigger it got. Regardless of anything the coach still can't go against the owner and when Tuchel doesn't make Todd happy then he uses his power to show no mercy to Tuchel when their game doesn't go well.
It seems unfair but things like this cannot be prevented because regardless of anything, Todd is in power and he can do whatever he wants.
As for Manchester United I don't understand what you wrote. Galciers?

In a hurry, maybe that's the right word to describe how Chelsea's management made the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel. Graham Potter who was appointed as the next coach was even worse than the previous coach. Will they now do the same by firing Graham Potter again? The decisions to be taken are even tougher now for Chelsea's management to make their team even better.

the poor performance of the players does not mean Chelsea have to keep changing coaches because that doesn't guarantee it will get better it could make the team worse off, I think it takes time for potter to make Chelsea better, despite the consecutive defeats against manchester city in the EPL and This FA is certainly an important lesson to improve Chelsea to be even better

Chelsea needs a lot of overhaul on various fronts. And this season has been a really bad season for them because of their own performance and bad management.

Several players who were brought in by Chelsea in the last summer window failed to make an extraordinary contribution to Chelsea this season, such as Aubameyang, who seems to need time to be able to show his good performance for Chelsea's front line. even they had to lose sterling and pulisic in the previous match, I thought how graham had to get out of a situation like this to be able to win against fulham. indeed an overhaul must be done but with a note that they must be able to win in every match that will come. if chelsea loses in the upcoming matches i'm sure the coaching chair will start rocking in the coming weeks.

I think changing managers very often is not a healthy way of making that team better in time. We have seen many examples of it so far as well. Therefore I think Liverpool and Manchester City are doing the right thing by continuing with Klopp and Guardiola now.

Maybe Klopp is having struggles with making Liverpool better this season. But these are all in football in the end and they will hopefully leave these bad days behind at a point.

it depends on each individual club owner, because ambitious club owners will immediately fire the coach if they don't give a trophy in every season. indeed kloop got something special at liverpool he seemed to get full trust to build liverpool for a long time. So it's a contrast to Chelsea where Graham, who was appointed as Chelsea coach this season, still hasn't been able to make a big contribution to the team's progress in the standings table. well, Todd Boehly will continue to give full trust to Graham if Graham fails to bring Chelsea to finish in the top 4 this season. or he will again sack Graham. all decisions are only in the hands of the club owner and we do not know what will happen.

I am so much disappointed at Chelsea's performance in the FA cup competition against Manchester city. Poor defense, poor midfield and poor attack right from the first minutes to the end. FA cup was the last hope for Chelsea and I was expecting Porter to show more focus and all amount of seriousness , but rather, the remaining injury free players that were productive in the last epl match against Mancherster city he kept on bench and then brought few of them in after losing 3-0. Graham Porter is a failure.

For the record it's eight to none games and Chelsea haven't seen themselves securing any win so far. All of thr poor poor amd poor you mentioned are no lies but true, but the team and squad selection came from the coach right ? As far as I'm concerned in this argument, Graham Potter can never take Chelsea far we've argued this countless times, he doesn't deserve a big club like Chelsea period.

It'll end like Frank Lampard, Graham Potter would be sacked completely and the next incoming manager would use this squad to win something. I just don't know what's thr problem with Manchester United.

Pretty much been busy lately but here is the result of the January 6, game

Chelsea FC VS Manchester City FC GOAL 0 - 1 - WIN

It seems that Chelsea really exposed Erling Haaland from their last game and they have completely shut him off from scoring a goal Haaland has found a way but it seems it is still not his lucky day to make a goal from this game aswell, but as hopes were lost Jack Grealish had open a path and assisting the ball to Riyad Mahrez in making the 1st goal for Manchester City, it has a great impact to the team boosting their confidence in winning this game,

Losing 1-0 in the Premier League, and now they have to lose 4-0, not getting better but their situation getting worse when facing the same team.

This is pretty much common in the football league if a coach is not doing well in winning they will immediately fire him and don't give him a reason for doubt or have him take on a plan to make adjustments for the team and find a solution but yeah they really want a fast solution to the problem and this is their solution which for me is not really amusing, Chelsea was really great in their defense but providing them with a great offense is a must in stopping Erling Haaland from scoring like that was really a great deal of work for the coaches to figuring that out, but they surely need to figure out a way to score back,

Well their performance in stopping Erling Haaland in the previous game was great for me, but their performance here seems a little off I think that Manchester City has already figured it out about it, and because their main focus was on Erling Haaland they forgot the main aspect of Football and that is teamwork Erling Haaland has a great team that can figure out for themselves what to do and using the opportunity in creating an opening through Haaland defender, well the thing is they can surely stop Haaland but focusing on him is not really a great thing to do, we can see that even in the FA Cup they have defeated Chelsea again and this time with 4 - 0 goals and Erling Haaland still didn't score but they make a progress in using that to their advantage, and learning from it while Chelsea in not learning anything from their previous games,

This season has been so had for Chelsea. The bad performance of Chelsea is as a result of bad management, bringing a coach that is not fit to help the team. Graham is the worst coach Chelsea has ever had .

Total chaos at the today match in chelsea.

Not sure if graham potter  could find an excuse to save the job but as far as i know he didnt need that as the club has ensure his place at chelsea is for the long term one and as a chelsea fan ... it is really hurting to see this. Potter deserve a sack!

If we compare Chelsea with Newcastle, then we will see a really extraordinary difference, in terms of the quality of the players, Newcastle is far behind Chelsea, so I'm sure the main problem that Chelsea is experiencing actually comes from the coach's strategy. potter is not a competent coach to leading chelsea.

I think Potter is a really good coach and that is evident when he manages to take Brighton in a better direction but his experience for big teams is minimal and one might even say he is still not up to it so this seems to be bad.
But now it had happened and there was no way he could back down in this condition. This was far away and there was no way to regret it as well as for Potter so they had no choice but to continue what had to be done no matter how bad it was.

Precisely if Chelsea change coach again now it will be worse I think because there will have to be some more adjustments to be made in the end it will be a waste of money because some players will definitely be replaced.
Right now it's not very good for them but there is no choice but to continue to give opportunities while waiting whether the new players they recruited on this transfer will pay off or not.

Chelsea is living a nightmare after being humiliated by Manchester City by conceding up to four goals, which is unfortunate, but it is only natural that Chelsea cannot compete with a team the size of Manchester City. With this match being used by Manchester City to look for lots of goals to add points at the top of the standings,

Chelsea, at its present form is in no shape to stand up to Manchester City. I expected a win from Manchester City as they didn’t disappoint me. I had expected Manchester City to win but didn’t expect Chelsea to concede as much goals as they did. I almost felt sorry for them.
Manchester city is in top form and hungry for goals and wins, trying so hard to catch up to Arsenal who’s presently chilling at the top spot. They might just catch up. Who knows?

[nurilham]

Several players who were brought in by Chelsea in the last summer window failed to make an extraordinary contribution to Chelsea this season, such as Aubameyang, who seems to need time to be able to show his good performance for Chelsea's front line. e

Well, even though Aubameyang played very well at Barcelona last season, at Chelsea, it didn't work out. This may not only be a problem with Aubameyang but indeed Chelsea has weaknesses at various points in the lineup, not only that, even though they have chosen a new coach, unfortunately, he still cannot provide tactics that are suitable for Chelsea. so he also hasn't been able to maximize Aubameyang's potential and also some players who are actually quite good. Next, Chelsea will meet against Fulham. Maybe in the past, it wouldn't be a problem, but looking at Chelsea's performance this season, it seems this will also be a bit difficult for them, moreover, Fulham has also played well in at least the last three matches.

The next match will be interesting between Man United vs Man City. If seeing the lineups, Man City may be stronger, moreover they should try to get closer to Arsenal. They have Haaland, but for some reason, in the last few matches his performance has been a little different and not so optimal. But I still thin that Man City will have a higher chance to win. Hopefully.

[len01]

for the next match I choose my 2 favorite teams.

for the Fulham vs Chelsea match I will still choose Chelsea even though in the standings Fulham is 3 points ahead of Chelsea but I will not betray my favorite team. only 3 points behind, it will be very easy for Chelsea

currently, the performance of the Manchester United team is very good and almost everyone knows that Manchester United is currently chasing the downturn that occurred last year, in which almost all fans feel disappointed at Manchester United because of the several defeats that occurred in the past. but no matter how good Manchester United is right now it will not be easy and will not be able to beat Manchester City

[Majestic-milf]

 With the way things are going I just think Chelsea have lost it, I mean they can't even get a goal having played the City side 3 times this season, are they going to repeat the same thing they did against Liverpool last season by losing two finals without getting any positive result or by snatching any trophy from Liverpool?

 They still have another leg to play in the league against Man City, are they going to get all 3 pts or are they going to sit back and enjoy being trashed as if they're a newly promoted side? With the look of things Burnley are better than Chelsea as it stands. Sacking of coach isn't there problem, I just think getting the best guys to fill in the missing piece, someone to control that midfield area distributing the ball or maybe getting new players because to me these Chelsea players ain't serious. They're not looking like the same players who won the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

[MoonOfLife]

Chelsea are currently loosing by three goals against Manchester City after loosing them them by a goal before now. It looks like Pep continued with the strategy that he applied to get against goal in the second half of their last encounter in this game, and it has worked well. Chelsea are having many challenges, no good attacker, injured players and a coach that looks like he has not had a good time settling in. If Chelsea lose against Fulham to continue this loosing run, calls for his sack will intensify by supporters of the club.

After the last match between Chelsea and Manchester City, one would assume that the humiliation they brought to Stamford Bridge was over. I had anticipated that they would at least do the same to Manchester City at Etihad, but I can't help but notice how Mahrez has continued to belittle them with back-to-back goals. I mean, 4 goals is way too many for what they played in the FA Cup, and Halaand wasn't even present for the match. Also, take a look at their last 5 matches it is poor, Potter would be faced with several queries if Chelsea lost to Fulham in their upcoming match.
Kante is back from Injury after missing  important matches, I don't know why he wasn't presence today, the same thing goes for Aubamayang and yet they weren't even on the substitution and its not like Fulham a strong team they will want to move their most preferably squad to, something is definitely wrong with Chelsea.

As a result, Chelsea suffered a 4-0 defeat against Manchester City in their match. As far as Chelsea's performance is concerned, that was a very poor one. It is actually my hope that they will be able to do better against Fulham in the next match, but I am not sure how that will pan out. This season has been quite a disaster for Chelsea as far as results are concerned.

Also, I think it's time for them to sack the coach and replace him with someone who will be able to coach tactically better than he does.
