Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[AverageGlabella]

I don't really blame the way the Chelsea games are going on the players, nope, not at all. The players have hot good quality but, the manager in Potter haven't got the know how to manage a team like Chelsea and most especially the squad he has got at the moment. The players have got no confidence in there game play because of how badly the team jas played recently.

You can imagine Kepa with lots and lots of play time on the clock in the first half and he was attempting to waste time. Like, its the first half, the game was still without a goal and your already pressured or scared of losing the game.
That didn't feel like a team that the odds had earlier favoured to be the winners of this encounter. To keep Spurs at bay, Chelsea needed to pressure them and push them back. When your doing all the defence, your team is going to be exhausted and Spurs would find a way to score like Skipp just did for Tottenham.

Potter was performing with worse players when he was managing Brighton so he knows tactics and I do not think it his tactics. Maybe his man management is not good and when you have better players and a lot more of them there are bigger egos and maybe he is struggling with that but I think that is on the players as much as it is on Potter. They need to find a way to work together before it is too late. If Chelsea do not qualify for the Champions League I can see a lot of their players leaving next season.

The most interesting match today in the English premier league is the match between Tottenham and Chelsea which has started already, it is 24 minutes in this match and is 0:0 for now, however both team are making great impact in other to outshine each other, the visiting team has under performed since the resumption of league football after the international break and the might make it right in this game.

Tottenham Hotspur are not playing really well this period but they look better than Chelsea at the moment, with the signings Chelsea made this transfer window nothing to write home about. The way the game is going I think it might end as a draw, was expecting Chelsea to win this game because it's been long they managed to win a game, Tottenham Hotspur is not a small team to play against but Chelsea should at least try and win this game, if they lose this game then I think the Coach should be sacked.

Tottenham are definitely playing better football against Chelsea. Conte seems to have solved Tottenham's defensive problems. Today Son is not playing, instead Kulusevski is playing. But Tottenham have the best offensive line in the Premier League. With Harry Kane, Richarlison and Son, they could have been the strongest team in the championship race. I think they will show that they want to stay among the top four teams in the league by winning the London derby today.

It's not even an interesting match. Chelsea plays so badly like the previous match against soton. Totenham was leading the match. Potter is a crazy coach. This coach was still giving felix chance to play in starting line up. Felix was performing so badly. The goal happened caused by felix didn't even give an effort to fight for the ball. felix was also playing individually. This guy is always dribbling without the right direction. Almost all of the new players were contributing nothing to the match.

Havertz, Mount, and ziyech were performing so badly. I saw how todd was seeing his club goes to the relegated zone very soon.

They do not have the best offensive line the Premier League and the statistics prove this. Manchester City statistically have the best attacking line in the Premier League. Tottenham have a good attack but only when Son is playing when he is not playing they lose the pace and creativity that he offers. Kane is lost without him and is not a player that can score goals on his own and relies on good delivery and space which Son provides when he plays.

Wow! Liverpool was able to climb to 7th place and if they can hold this position until the end of the tournament, they will qualify for the Conference League! Good chance to win the title  
I wonder why Chelsea are quoted better than Tottenham? Oddly enough, though it might be assumed that Chelsea can't lose points indefinitely.

Actually, Liverpool have played fewer games than their rivals, so it's not very healthy to comment on the scoreboard. We still have a lot of time before the end of the league. I think Liverpool's points could be much higher, they may have started badly in the league or they may have lost a lot of points, but in the end, Liverpool is always of good quality. They always have the potential to be successful in Europe

We are mid way through the season so they have not just started badly but continued to play badly. They struggled against Crystal Palace and got destroyed by Real Madrid. I do not think they are a team that can qualify for the Champions League and their players are old and unmotivated. They needed big investments but did not get any. I do not know what you mean by success in Europe they have been knocked out because they are not scoring more then 3 goals against Real Madrid in the 2nd leg and will be knocked out.

[Oneandpure]

Its not interesting result for Chelsea's fans until latest update from my post on 85th minutes have been conceded two goals and bad record losing last three matches in a row from Champion League until English Primer League. Never have chance for Chelsea can finish on top fourth standing position in this season and there are not any benefit yet with how much money spent for last window transfer.

Need miracle for Chelsea back to the top performance between replace Graham Potter as Chelsea manager or he needs new strategy how to change game style and keep in the race for finishing on 4th standing place.

Graham Potter should be sacked immediately. He has been given enough time to change this team but he has proved his incompetence and inability to manage a big club. Tottenham is winning by two goals to nothing and Chelsea looks like a relegation-bound team. I hope Todd Boehly realized that sacking Thomas Tuchel was a mistake. Potter is making Chelsea look like a common team. A team that has some of the best players in the world shouldn't play this badly.

[AverageGlabella]

Potter will be fired but he will not be easily replaced who is he going to be replaced with? Not many top managers are available until the end of the season so Chelsea will probably keep Potter until they can replace him. Any manager that they hire now would not be able to change the players or tactics and would have the same results. I agree a new manager with preseason and their own signings can make a difference but they cannot do that until the summer.

It's never an interesting result for any fan when your loosing, not at the rate they are loosing or coming up with a draw. It's not like they've got wins in between but, its just some parallel lose or draw through at least 8 games now. That's just unfair to your supporters and most especially, the owner of Chelsea Todd Boehly after spending so much money more than any other club in the transfer window and this is what his got to show for it.

It was a crucial match for Chelsea as they faced Tottenham today but, they've lost and what a win it is for Chelsea. You can't ay they didn't deserve this win because, they did, they were the determined team in this game, they pressed forward and got the goals they needed to be ahead and seal the game as well.

Tuchel and Chelsea were a very different team.  Chelsea owes even its current ranking to Tuchel.  They haven't even won a single win in their last 5 games.  They got 3 draws and 2 losses.  They lost to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League as well.  Chelsea is still going downhill.  If only Tuchel had been given this opportunity, which was given to Potter.

I haven't heard that Graham Potter is under any big threat of being sacked, but looking at Chelsea at the moment it makes sense that he was sacked by Chelsea. Before carrying out the dismissal, Chelsea should find a coach who can really make Chelsea even better. Because they had a bad experience, they sacked Thomas Tuchel and replaced him with Graham Potter, but they just got worse and worse.

I don’t see it as Felix playing individually because due to lack of any creative midfielder he has to find a way to dazzle his way into the boss. Chelsea should seriously look at how they lack creativity and work on it. The attackers are just playing different football with coordination it might be because of numerous changes Potter always makes in his starting line up. The new guys haven’t played more minutes together to understand themselves well. Things are just going bad for Chelsea this win brings them closer to the relegation zone than the top 4 or 6. Silva injury today just sums up how messed up their season has been.

But nonetheless Big three points for Tottenham, both Manchester United and Newcastle are out of league duties this weekend and they just close up the gaps. They have performed perfectly well in the absence of their manager and should they keep on going this way then it might be hard for Newcastle to get back into the top 4

I do not know why Tuchel was not given more time. He was a fantastic manager before he joined Chelsea and was more decorated then Graham Potter. Potter did a good job with Brighton but as Brighton has proved it was the players at Brighton instead of only Potter. They are still performing well without him. Tuchel had success with Chelsea too he got them playing good football and were performing better then they are today. I wonder if it is possible that Chelsea offer another chance to Tuchel and if he would take it because of the way they treated him.

There is no radar which coach will replace Potter if it is true that he is sacked but it is a fact that Chelsea will definitely maintain it until the end of the season with Potter.

In the previous match, Chelsea didn't have an aggressive current, they found it difficult to develop, for some reason, Potter as a manager didn't do anything better than the formation that was implemented. It was the umpteenth time that Chelsea didn't score points perfectly and they continued to be on the standings without any progress.

If this continues to happen, I'm not sure that Chelsea can survive in the Champions League.

If Chelsea do not get knocked out by Dortmund they will get knocked out the next round but I see Dortmund as one of the teams that could win the Champions League. I do not think they are favorites but I think outside of the favorites they are the most likely team. Chelsea need to focus on the Premier League and not the champions league since they lost the 1st leg against Dortmund. If they do not start improving in the league they might not qualify for the champions league and I think a lot of their players will leave making it harder for them to qualify next season too.

I've said it time and again, the only option for Chelsea right now is to sack Potter. It's may sound a little too harsh but it's the truth. You can see clearly that he's not leading that team anywhere. There are no signs of improvement, no signs of hope. You can't even say they're inconsistent, they're just outrightly bad. They don't play well, they can't string five passes together without giving the ball away. Chelsea under Potter are too poor for a club that have signed that amount of players.
If they played well in some games and score goals but still lose them we can say there is hope for them but this is different. They play badly, the don't score goals, they don't even create enough chances.
There are situations where you trust the manager and give him time, like Arsenal did with Arteta, like Liverpool did with Klopp but this is not one of those instances. Under those coaches, even if they Liverpool and Arsenal weren't exactly winning games, you could see glimpse of potentials we don't see that in Potter's Chelsea.

Don't mind my asking but who is the goal scorer for Chelsea?
Tottenham have got goal scorers in the likes of Harry Kane and H. Son, Manchester City, you've got that in E. Haaland, R. Mahrez, Liverpool we can take M. Salah but, we've got nk one really for Chelsea. I can't Consider K. Havertz or Mount because, they aren't reliable to come on the game at any point and make a huge difference, Sterling neither.
Chelsea had a very poor performance today and it didn't reflect well considering the money spent on this team in the transfers. Joao Felix is definitely playing some good football for me but, there is absolutely no one to take the cancel that he creates.

Graham Potter and his at least 4 changes in each game just tells how desperate or frustrated he is at the moment, the pressure that is mounted on him to get results and that is some confused state of management. Like, he doesn't know what his doing and that's not what Chelsea needs at the top of its management right now.

Yes, I believe Tuchel was hastily removed as he would have been given more time to make things better in his own way. Chelsea hasn’t improved a bit since he was let go as they’ve still been losing games. Personally, I had high hopes for this particular game with Tottenham as I thought they, this time around, had a very good chance of winning the game and changing their luck. They’ve had a bad run lately and I do feel pity for the squad as they’ve been trying so hard with little luck to win games.

I was looking for an answer to the replacement and I found Betfair's poll https://twitter.com/Betfair/status/1629869121121705984

I recognize the names except for two on the list. Zidane seems to be a good option considering his success at Real Madrid but I don't think he would want to work with Chelsea's owners. I also doubt other available top managers would consider taking the job. Maybe someone of Pochettino's level would take it.
