Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[rahmad2nd]

It seem Bayern Munich were not serious with the signing of Declan Rice before they pulled out because the player made it known to them he wanted Arsenal  and Arsenal are willing to pay  what his club wants.
Rice valuation has always been 100m so I don’t think there was going to be a bidding war. The opportunity cost to enter a bidding war with us probably didn't make sense to them and they backed out - hence the "no bidding war".

As quoted by Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich knows that Declan Rice wants to continue in England. Tuchel is a huge fan but a deal was never nearly done with FC Bayern. Meanwhile, Arsenal working on their official offer as personal terms will not be a problem. In other news, Plettenberg said in a tweet: no transfer, Bayern have decided today not to make an offer - compromised. 

As I expected, Bayern are not willing to buy players above their reach. another rumour, West Ham are still hoping to reach £100m, plus extras, for the Declan Rice deal.  however, the Gunners however would prefer to pay closer to £90 million. sadly, David Silivan insisted on the price he wanted. As reported by the same source, Arsenal believe they have won the race for his signature. as reported by TeamTalk.
as a Gunner fan, I hope that this deal will be smooth sailing. that way, now they can focus on bringing in several other players, especially defenders.

Newcastle's performance after the change of ownership impressed everyone. Importantly, Newcastle lost just 5 games last season. Arsenal and Manchester United, who are second and third in the table, have lost 6 and 9 matches respectively. Newcastle played very well. And so the fans will definitely expect better performance from this team in the coming season. But we still don't know what steps Newcastle management will take to strengthen their squad.

Newcastle is currently very ideal in showing their performance, plus the financial support is quite large they can do anything if they want to buy quality players. Because the owner really fully supports what the coach wants, it's no wonder that this season, Newcastle have finished in an extraordinary position. Next season, for sure, Newcastle has prepared a far more mature plan than this season, especially when they qualify for the Champions League, it requires more support. Their long-time dream has now been achieved by getting a UCL ticket, which has boosted their confidence. The management of the Newcastle club is not in doubt.

Newcastle's performance in last season's English Premier League is undoubtedly their best in the league over the last decade thanks to the club new owner's wise decisions on bringing in the best needed set of players and also the tactical works that was put in place by the manager Eddie Howe who I think deserves some personal accolades for the feat he achieved with Newcastle.
Next season will be more demanding and challenging as well for Newcastle who would not just want to replicate finishing in the top four of the league position but also put out a great performance in the UEFA Champions League competition that they'll be playing in come next season. So I think it's required of the club new owner to sign more quality players so they can be formidable enough for the new season

Have I missed a lot of news or who said and confirmed that several players are going to leave Manchester City? Which players are we talking about here?

Just look up. They have been mentioned a couple of times in this thread.

I I am not wrong nothing has been decided yet, has it?

So far it is about Silva, Gundogan and Alvarez. As far as the key players are concerned these are the three guys who are not yet sure about their future. But if you can tell me who actually already signed a contract with another club and was a key player for Manchester City, I would appreciate if you share that info again. I tried to search for it but couldn't find anything that is set in stone yet.

Yes they're rumors as of now but you know there's usually a fire when there's a smoke hehe. Private inquiries or offers may have been submitted already but it just takes time before it comes to reality because of the negotiations and renegotiations that happens behind the doors.

[.....]
I would say this season was the best season in Newcastle's history.

Best finish in recent years. They came close to winning the league in 95-96 and 96-97 finishing behind champions Man United in both occasions.

The improvement that has occurred at the Newcastle club since changing ownership reminds me of the same conditions at Man City when they changed ownership. Man City also continues to show extraordinary improvements every season and this is also inseparable from the impact of the strong financial support that is owned by the new owner of Man City, namely Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al-Nahyan who does have a lot of wealth.

And now it seems that Newcastle is also lucky because the new owner is the Prince of Saudi Arabia, namely Muhammed Bin Salman. which financial strength also need not be doubted. So of course bringing players at high prices might not be so difficult for Newcastle. and it is possible that in the following season these two clubs, namely Man City and Newcastle, will become two clubs that will become rivals in the race for the title.

West Ham United will lose a key player this summer, but don't panic, there will always be a replacement for potential players. Declan Rice winning the ECL trophy with the Hammers increases his market value; clubs will increase their bids for him, whereas West Ham will continue to demand higher sums. Declan Rice wants for a trip to Arsenal, which is currently leading the fight for the signing of the Englishman. Bayern Munich is also interested in Rice, but the Bavarians have anticipated budgets for players, and spending a substantial money on Rice appears to exceed the budgets.

Now it has also been confirmed that Pep will remain at Manchester City next season after previously several rumors said he would leave but with a recent statement even though he doesn't really expect a new contract extension considering his contract is still awake until 2025 but for this season he confirmed he would remain at Manchester City.
At this time I also read some related news that now there are 3 names that have been prepared and are a priority for Pep this season.
We know Mateo Kovacic is now their main target, on the other hand there is the name Julio Enciso winger from Brighton who is also being approached and this is likely to anticipate that Mahrez will leave because indeed he is also now in the club's lyrics from Arabic and there is the name Josko Gvardiol who is projected to strengthen their line of defense next season.

It still remains to be seen what Pep will say in two years from now. I don't what he will do when he has built this project and perhaps the best team in the world and it is still winning titles, will he then decide to leave the club for sure? He has some very strict ideas in mind and he has shown that he sticks to them although he also once said that he will leave Manchester City after a couple of years. If Haaland is at his best in two years from now and they can also get some other world stars who knows if Guardiola reconsiders his decision from today? If he sees the potential for another successful year he might extend the contract for another year. But for now it matters that they defend the titles they won.

Newcastle next season will appear in four competitions and Eddie Howe will have to buy several quality players to strengthen his squad, considering that the Champions League is a competition that promises big prize money and is also the most prestigious league. So Eddie has to plan the best for his team so they can compete in four competitions with the top teams, especially in the Champions League.
and as we know Newcastle turned out to be one of the strongest clubs in the Premier League last season and they have to get a formidable attacker for next season, and Newcastle's club management must have planned for next season and must be a scary team. Because, for their financial problems no doubt.

Pep has long time project in Manchester city, he will extend his contract in due time. He will surly stay and build the team that no team in the world would like to play against, he has won the treble and he would like to defend the champions league title next year. Pep Guardiola has made Manchester city a world number one team and he won't leave the project so soon.

Their long-time dream has now been achieved by getting a UCL ticket, which has boosted their confidence. The management of the Newcastle club is not in doubt.

One of the driving forces and motivations behind Newcastle is money, and they have plenty of it, and the way they performed before Manchester United flipped them on the table, they actually did perform well this season, and because they have the money, they can also buy any player they want, unlike some clubs who back out because they always consider their budget. And, given how well Newcastle fared this season, they could do even better next season. I admire the owner's business mindset, since he spends resources to grow his investment, which is good for business. and everyone is expecting a big surprises next season will come with.

The success of Newcastle United is not all about money only.
There are people who will equally have the money but they will not do well within a short period of time. It was not even up to one season that the ownership of Newcastle United changed and they are already in the top four and Champions League. That is a combined effort of the coach, the players, the management, and the availability of money to add up.

I will oblige Newcastle United to continue with their strategy of improving the team and not to rush into it to spend a big amount of money. It is quite unfortunate that they came to the timeline when Manchester City is already there. If not, by next season, I would have tipped them to be the champions of English Premier League.

Newcastle next season will appear in four competitions and Eddie Howe will have to buy several quality players to strengthen his squad, considering that the Champions League is a competition that promises big prize money and is also the most prestigious league. So Eddie has to plan the best for his team so they can compete in four competitions with the top teams, especially in the Champions League.
and as we know Newcastle turned out to be one of the strongest clubs in the Premier League last season and they have to get a formidable attacker for next season, and Newcastle's club management must have planned for next season and must be a scary team. Because, for their financial problems no doubt.

Yes, I also really hope that Newcastle will make a breakthrough in the transfer market. Newcastle manager, Eddy Howe must not be slow and immediately perform activities and make contact with the target hunting. The Magpies have successfully finished in the top four of the standings this season, but I think this team is still not strong enough and maybe no longer able to repeat success like this season if only relying on the same player.

Then next season is also a very busy season for Newcastle so Howe must really prepare his squad carefully. Back in the Champions League after a 20 -year absence must also be able to be utilized and not just decorate the group phase but must be able to advance to the knockout phase. So for that I really hope that Howe is serious in hunting players and not carelessly, because Newcastle's financial strength is also very supportive.

For the first time in a long time that Newcastle has been absent from the Champions League, of course, even with trying to buy players, it remains that the Champions League is a much bigger competition and its level exceeds the English League. In other words, if Newcastle managed to get out of the group stage it would be an achievement, because after all the clubs that will be faced with Newcastle would have been far more used to competing in the UCL and far more experienced. Starting back in the Champions League was not easy for Newcastle, even though they managed to become a Premier League club that performed brilliantly, competition in the UCL was very difficult.

The team has a rich ownership that can afford any player they want. The team needs some fresh legs because they will be competing in a different competition. To avoid the effect of injury and fatigue the team needs to have more players that will serve as a formidable substitute in cases of emergency. It will not be bad to see new teams making waves in the Uefa Champion League next season and Newcastle could be one of them. I also want to see Newcastle competing to win the premiership next season so that Manchester City will not have a free day in the league. Newcastle is fortunate to have achieved much with a relatively unknown coach Eddie Howe. Unlike Graham Potter that failed at Chelsea, Howe has been able to restructure and built a team that can compete favorably in all competitions.

Good management and lots of finance in a team is what every team needs to prevail amongst their contemporaries. Every successful team that are performing well today and are amongst the tops teams have good financing and management to buy the best quality players they want. Both financing and management works hand in hand for a team to be successful. If one of the two is lacking, then the team will not be able to perform outstandingly well. Newcastle got the financing and also good management and it earned them a champions league ticket. In the case of Chelsea FC, they have the funds to buy the best quality players they wanted but they lack good management and it landed them a poor performance in the just concluded season.

It seem Bayern Munich were not serious with the signing of Declan Rice before they pulled out because the player made it known to them he wanted Arsenal  and Arsenal are willing to pay  what his club wants.
Rice valuation has always been 100m so I don’t think there was going to be a bidding war. The opportunity cost to enter a bidding war with us probably didn't make sense to them and they backed out - hence the "no bidding war".

West Ham United will lose a key player this summer, but don't panic, there will always be a replacement for potential players. Declan Rice winning the ECL trophy with the Hammers increases his market value; clubs will increase their bids for him, whereas West Ham will continue to demand higher sums. Declan Rice wants for a trip to Arsenal, which is currently leading the fight for the signing of the Englishman. Bayern Munich is also interested in Rice, but the Bavarians have anticipated budgets for players, and spending a substantial money on Rice appears to exceed the budgets.

Declan Rice grew well at West Ham so that at this moment Declan Rice has a high price, because it is also appropriate because he is still 24 years old, of course Declan Rice is a player who has great potential from time to time. Joining Arsenal also suits Declan Rice because, as Arteta has built, Arsenal are more focused on building a team with young players. But yes, if Declan Rice is so prioritizing about trophies and other titles, then I think Bayern Munich will be more appropriate because Bayern Munich has a very good dominance in the Bundesliga.

It seems very long to see that the official announcement from glazer regarding the acquisition of united. Zaid as a friend from Jassim already made a tweet regarding the successful acquisition of manchester united by sheikh jassim.

I think that i shall be more patience waiting for an official announcement from glazer regarding this rumor. I will be so happy if what already posted him zaid was the true story.

I think that if anyone is still waiting for the official announcement from glazer. That will be so stupid if glazer rejected jassim's last offer to acquire manchester united.

I hope this will come true. The oil money is coming for united.

[Fesatmas]

Yes, I also really hope that Newcastle will make a breakthrough in the transfer market. Newcastle manager, Eddy Howe must not be slow and immediately perform activities and make contact with the target hunting. The Magpies have successfully finished in the top four of the standings this season, but I think this team is still not strong enough and maybe no longer able to repeat success like this season if only relying on the same player.

A very satisfying result for Newcastle, now Eddie Howe has made several improvements to his team, and reportedly they will buy several new players in the upcoming transfer market to further strengthen Newcastle's performance in the upcoming competition. The presence of Eddie Howe made the fans happy because it had been around 20 years of waiting for Newcastle to be able to return to the prestigious Champions League. His coaching was able to bring Newcastle to finish fourth in the Premier League standings and successfully win the long-awaited Champions League ticket.

Then next season is also a very busy season for Newcastle so Howe must really prepare his squad carefully. Back in the Champions League after a 20 -year absence must also be able to be utilized and not just decorate the group phase but must be able to advance to the knockout phase. So for that I really hope that Howe is serious in hunting players and not carelessly, because Newcastle's financial strength is also very supportive.

Next season is a very busy season for Newcastle, it is certain that Eddie Howe will do whatever it takes to make the dreams of the club and the fans come true. On the other hand, there will be no difficulty for Newcastle to be able to bring in several quality new players, albeit at fantastic prices, to strengthen their team. Because from a financial perspective, Newcastle is very capable. They are a rich club in England and they can buy everything they need. Eddie Howe will not waste this opportunity and let's see what steps he will take before preparing for the most prestigious league next season.

Will it be a new era for Manchester United after being acquired by Sheikh Jassim? all Manchester United fans have been long term expected for the Glazer era have been over as soon possible due business priority than trophies achievement by Manchester United. Its seems good moment when acquisition before season 2023/24 begin because Erik tan Hag has many time preparing new squad for next season and actually Sheikh Jassim have already prepare much money for signing star players.

Excited with Manchester is not dominance by Manchester City only after United having new owner and has much money make them easy for signing potential player and compete for Primer League or Champion League tittle next season.

Since Bayern Munich continues to outperform Arsenal in every league, I believe that Bayern Munich are happy with the composition of their team. However, I believe that Arsenal should be the team to sign Declan Rice because the Gunners desperately need a player with Haaland's skill set and scoring ability. Although Arsenal already has players of that caliber, they aren't good enough to win any leagues, so in my opinion, the team needs more players.
It's not that I might be an Arsenal fan, but if we look at the performances of both teams, we can see that Arsenal started the league off strong but faltered as the season came to a close. I believe this was a midfield error that allowed Manchester city to win the title and Bayern Munich to claim their league title. As a result, Arsenal deserves a player who will keep them motivated.

[Luzin]

I hope this will come true. The oil money is coming for united.

Of course, many people say that during the Glazer period, Man United suffered a setback. Glazer is not good at managing the club in the field of achievement, although they have had a huge advantage since owning Man United. Actually they can learn from Liverpool, they have the right and intelligent people as owners of the club. Regarding this offer in the local media I read Sheikh Jassim who is the Chairman of Qatar Islamic Bank, submitted his fifth bid for Man United. Sheikh Jassim's offer is about $6.5 billion.

[JeffBrad12]

I don't think Bayern Munich is a team that will go into a transfer war with the Premier League teams. I don't think they want to pay huge transfer fees. They offer transfers up to the amount that is sufficient for them. After that, it depends on the club's acceptance. 100 million big money and it should be natural that they want not to give it.

Rice will not be interesting to play in another league. He wants to play in the premier league even longer. His transfer to the arsenal become very close at this moment. The thing that i don't even understand if rice has a motivation to win more and more trophies but he tries to join in arsenal which was rarely winning trophy. His fate will be the same as former of manchester city players which has been joining with arsenal.

I see his motivation to join is really wrong to join in arsenal.
