Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Issa56]

Chelsea may want to return with full force to perform well next season, but I don't think it will be possible in an easy way, because even if the team has a good coach and still the player didn't perform, nothing is going to change the team the following season. Chelsea always spends money on young players, and that is the main factor that is affecting them because lavishing young players with money causes them to perform poorly on the field.
Although I am aware that paying a premium price for a player is a good idea and that good players deserve the best, Chelsea purchases players without first determining the team's problems. As such, I would advise Chelsea to thoroughly investigate the squad before adding any more players.

Am not expecting anything special from Chelsea at the beginning of next season, having a new coach is not really easy, its going to take time before the coach will be able to adapt with the players and am sure Chelsea will be getting new players, Pochettino is really having a lot to work on, because Chelsea is really lacking behind. Its not all about having experience coach alone, Chelsea also need experienced player's that are really ready to work for the club. Chelsea spending money on young players is not really the problem, what i believe is that Chelsea are not going for the right young players. Arsenal are also using young players but we all saw they performed well last season.

Actually, I've said this before that Chelsea might adapt again to its new coach, namely Pochettino and in this adaptation process it's not easy because sometimes the strategies given by the new coach can't be well received by the players so maybe Pochettino will adapt himself more closely to chelsea player.
Maybe you don't expect too much at the start of this season but I personally hope that Chelsea can return to its original position with a strong performance like in the past.
At least I hope Chelsea in the new season can try to get a ticket to the champions league.

I would say Chelsea was quite unlucky throughout last season.  Of course, we all know that every club would experience the same at least once in a decade. So for now it will make no sense if we keep pressing on the "WHY" of Chelsea's condition.
Many keep talking about Potter and Todd Boehly as the sole cause of the club's predicament while few speak about the way forward. I'm more worried about how the new chelsea would be in the next season, seeing that the club is already showing signs of a bad start by planning on selling Covasic and Kante.

Every team has a season of prospects, and despite the money that Chelsea spent on players, they still did not perform well. Chelsea wasted several golden opportunities and narrowly avoided relegation in premier league on like the Chelsea we know. You make a valid point about waiting to see if Chelsea's current developments can enhance the team's performance, but I believe that even if Potter gave it his all, the play itself was sufficient. And I can see that Mauricio Pochettino is sticking to his guns about retaining Kepa has is number one.

The previous season is already in the past; we shouldn't dwell on how horrible it was for the players, management, and supporters alike. Instead, we should focus on getting ready for the forthcoming one. I am aware that Chelsea supporters and the board lack patience, which may be why Potter struggled during his tenure, they constantly expect a lot from the coach and the players, and when they don't deliver, they are quickly condemned. I've seen that many players will be leaving this summer. I believe that because they gave their all for the team, it's best if they go so that room may be made for new signings. Although Kovacic and Kante are excellent players, Kante is becoming older and as a result frequently sustains injuries, thus it is best to replace them.

If Chelsea doesn't contend for any titles the following year, I don't think we should accept anything less given the caliber of our players. We simply need to let the manager handle signing players for whom he has ideas and releasing others who are not part of those plans.

Lol, Mudryk is a bad player, he should be worth around 10-20 Million Euros

He's 22 years old, although Benzema shine when he's already old, but his performance isn't that bad like Mudryk. Haaland, Mbappe, Valverde, Vinicius are young players, but it's not wise to compare Mudryk with them. At least he need to be Nunez or Gakpo, both of them aren't really good in this season, however both of them have show a contribution.

Mudryk played 15 matches, 0 goal and 2 assists, almost no contribution.

The Premier league is a very competitive league, and it is obvious that practically everyone is aware of Mudryk's potential. He simply needs time to get used to the league, as some players do, and you can't immediately condemn him to be a horrible player after one season. Can we infer that Hazard is also a poor player if that's the case? since he didn't perform well at Real Madrid. You can't just jump to conclusions just early because Havertz also struggled at start but eventually picked up and improved and helped the team win the champions league. Mudryk is a very intelligent player who has room to grow, so I think you should wait before drawing any quick conclusions.

Chelsea have enough money to build a solid team although the huge spending made last season and there is many rumours about players coming. They need to carefully select the squad that will be able to make them return to the competition for real.
Waiting to see what they will do exactly since Spurs already made moves by recruiting Porro and Kulusevski from loans

[BITCOIN4X]

Maybe Chelsea is the club that makes him difficult. That's because he's never managed a big club of outstanding quality. He was also at a loss to choose players to support his target. It was proven at Chelsea, so maybe what you said is true. Potter is smarter to manage ordinary players in ordinary clubs. There is no heavy pressure from supporters and management, it seems that he will be more comfortable bringing out his abilities. I think right now he just needs to get a job back soon and find a lot of experience to make him even better.

Forget Graham Potter's fiasco with Chelsea and let's talk about how Mauricio Pochettino is as their new coach. I know Pochettino as a coach who has a lot of experience in the Premier League, he also won the Ligue 1 title with PSG but now Pochettino is trying his luck with Chelsea. Chelsea fans believe Pochettino can get Chelsea back in contention at the top flight, but some doubts exist for him as well. Internally Chelsea doesn't seem safe yet, but they hope to get up and fight to find their best form again.

If someone has doubts about the ability of Pochettino and Chelsea, then I think it's still normal. Pochettino's task is tough, that is because Chelsea is inhabited by many new players who have not adapted well to their teammates.

[Polkeins]

In general it is logical that the root of all problems in Todd Boehly. Here it should be noted that he apparently adheres to the American position and in sports that money can solve almost everything. So apparently after the Potter debacle he decided to make a big purchase for Chelsea so that star players could fix the situation, but things as we understand it turned out differently.

Now Poccetino will have to rectify the situation, I think he will figure out who is superfluous in the team and probably many of the latest Chelsea purchases will be put up for sale or on loan, I think that by 90 percent will remain Enzo Fernandez and Mudrik, because he seems to have such a clause in the contract, and the other potential players for the transition.

But the real problem is that the harm is already done and can't be fixed within a single year. Not playing the Champions League is a massive drawback for the team and the club. First of all they need to get rid of any players who underperformed last season unless Pochettino thinks he can get them going again, but at the same time they need to keep their squad together. But when they don't participate in the Champions League it will be hard to convince new players to go to Chelsea. Boehly went literally crazy with all those transfers and now they have a ton of players and nobody really knows what to do with all those guys. He also expected that it would work out and now I wouldn't be surprised if there are also issues financially that limit their ability to bring in some other guys. This will be a rough year for Chelsea.

Yes, Chelsea is a big mess, but Poccetino has a lot of experience in bringing order after Tottenham. As we can see after Poccetino's departure all the mess that is in Tottenham came out. Just as in Chelsea there are a lot of "passable" and frankly weak players, incomprehensible transfer policy and Levy's eccentricities, in some ways similar to Todd Boehly's actions in Chelsea.

Of course it will be unusual without the Champions League and European Cups, but Poccetino will have time to play the squad to understand who can really play at a high level, and the players will have time to show themselves in the English Premier League and I think next season we should see Chelsea if not in the Champions League, then in the Europa League for sure.

Bravo! You just wrote a script, I hope things play out with this script. Chelsea is in a big mess and I don't believe that Mauricio Pochettino will be able to do magic suddenly. I agree that there will be an improvement, but this would be slight this next season, it can't just be sudden. I appreciate Pochettino as an experienced coach who knows where to touch, but at the same time, if you do not get it right with the correct players to let go and the new ones to bring to distort the equation, it's a problem.

And this goes beyond the performance of the players alone, it could be psychological, so the coach needs to reason beyond tactics, and this is delicate to get right suddenly.

Pochettino is certainly no wizard, but he's good at bringing order to an obscure collection of players who constantly pull the game and attention away from themselves, to the detriment of collective action. You can look at Tottenham now after Pochettino's departure, there are also a lot of expensive and seemingly good players who each play on their own and don't make the team.
Chelsea have everything to revive right away next season, we need not interfere with Pochettino to sort out the rubble of his predecessors and remove unnecessary players.

Of course, a lot will depend on the start of the season and the first games, if they are successful for Chelsea, it will be easy for Pochettino, but if there will be losses, it will take patience from the club's management, so as not to break the team's season again by starting chaotic dismissals.

[Rockstarguy]

Funny enough I thought Potter will do great at Chelsea. He was really good at Brighton and I felt he will replicate the same performance with Chelsea. How wrong I was. I really don't know what happened t Potter in Chelsea but he was beyond awful. His team played so badly. Chelsea should have fired him earlier.
But then again, Chelsea went ahead to hire Lampard. What exactly were they thinking? If Chelsea had gotten a better manager after sacking Potter they would have finished in a better place on the table. probably not a among the top 6, but definitely not 12th position.

Yes, it's true, I see Chelsea's situation is always in a bad state, especially after coaching from Potter. I don't know what was the reason Todd brought Potter to train his club, from a financial point of view Chelsea was very supportive and they could bring in any good player for their club but the strange thing was that in the end, no matter how good the player was, Chelsea still couldn't get out of their slump. Lampard's presence in fact could not make any progress or change for Chelsea, yes maybe indeed because this task was too difficult for him. Now Todd has succeeded in bringing in Pochettino and has entrusted Chelsea to him. So far Todd says that Pochettino is believed to have very experienced in coaching English League clubs. Everyone including the fans and I will be very happy if Pochettino manages to make a change for Chelsea next season. Now Pochettino is reshuffling the Blues squad and I hope that Chelsea's appearance in the Premier League next season can be as expected, placing in the top five in the standings to be able to compete is very good for the first step of his progress.

When Chelsea hired Potter, I assumed things would improve for the team, but instead, everything went awry. As a result, in my opinion, Chelsea was even unsure of how to proceed with the necessary actions throughout the season. The funny thing was that even minor teams were scoring goals while Chelsea was going through a difficult time. I believe that this is the worst season Chelsea has ever experienced.
However, when Lampard came to managed Chelsea, we anticipated that things would also improve, even if it's not good all but atleast we should see changes but no thing change the season become more difficult, as Lampard had previously been one of their best players before I was thinking he will know how manage the team excellently, However, as things have gotten harder for Chelsea lately, I'm hoping that things will be better for them next season.

With all these coaches Chelsea's has work with and still could not change their performance, I feel the problem is not just from the coach  it is something that is beyond the problem of a coach. Thomas Tuchel who later find it difficult to revive Chelsea was once Chelsea's best coach who was able to win Champions League for Chelsea but later find it so difficult to give Chelsea best performance once again. It is so weird for a club  like Chelsea to work with about three coaches and no positive result was seen, their was no difference in the performance of these three coaches.

I just hope next season will totally be different for Chelsea having a new coach, it will be very painful if Chelsea still goes one the same circle of last season with a weak performance. Whatever is the problem they really need to look into it and to put it to an end, it so disappointing Chelsea won't be in Champions league next  season.  

Pochettino is a great coach and if he still gets the same results just like the others past coaches I won't blame  him because I know the problem is not from him, it can be possible four coach to get the same  results from the same   club, that means it has never been a problem  of a coach.

[laurenB7742]

Graham Potter is still without club now. I thought he shouldn't have been signed by Chelsea in the first place as I saw it as a risk. Because Chelsea can be much more successful with managers who have at least a decent experience with big teams in Europe. Potter wasn't such manager so it is normal to have doubts about him.

Chelsea management was wrong in their coach selection. They hire experienced coaches as per their requirements. I don't want to get into the debate about whether Graham Potter is experienced. But Graham Potter has never coached a major team before. He doesn't know how to handle so many star players. As a result, he failed to stabilize the Chelsea team. He could not strengthen the bonding between the players. Chelsea's performance was unstable throughout the season. Chelsea are now coached by Mauricio Pochettino. Mauricio Pochettino was not successful with PSG. So I don't think Chelsea will challenge for the title next season.

[_BlackStar]

I'm not sure how many times you've all been talking about the new Chelsea coach - while you forget the many other good managers who can punish Chelsea just like last season. Klopp, Pep Guardiola, Eric Ten Hag and a few others have better teams and experience than Pochettino - so don't think only Chelsea can do well next season while you ignore a lot of other teams.

About Chelsea - they are not favourites. I hope Liverpool will be much more impressive next season after being almost as bad as Chelsea this season. Liverpool's form has been ridiculous this season - so we need a lot of room for improvement for next season.

[Leviathan.007]

Checking the market value of premier league teams and I can see Chelsea is one of the most expensive teams there while they have many expensive players and Chelsea got many players for this teams with high salaries in the end they couldn't even get the ticket for the champions league and even the ticket for the Europa League.
Wondering how Mauricio Pochettino wants to rebuild this team and save them from the situation they have.

[baeva]

I think Liverpool will start next season with a significant level of difference for them because last season Liverpool played in the Champions League and they were able to provide a lot of competition from the grub phase to the next stage. But in the next season Liverpool will play in the Europa League and of course Liverpool is very superior. Salah while playing at Liverpool he has never played in the Europa League. But next season he will play for the first time in the European league with Liverpool. I think he will make a lot of achievements in the Europa League next season, be it being the top scorer or being the best player in the Europa League.

Quite possibly, Liverpool are a strong enough team and compared to the teams that play there Liverpool seem not just a serious team but also a contender. They could well make it to the play-offs and get into the conditional quarter-finals, I think they will. Of course, you have to get to know the opponents in general first...

About Chelsea - they are not favourites. I hope Liverpool will be much more impressive next season after being almost as bad as Chelsea this season. Liverpool's form has been ridiculous this season - so we need a lot of room for improvement for next season.

I am very sure, Pep Guardiola will certainly bring his team as the favorite. or, they will be much stronger and more powerful next season by strengthening their 3-2-4-1 system.

Ten Hag is currently working on bringing in newcomers that suit the needs of the team, plus, players according to their typical style and strategy. in essence, their focus is on the center forward and not just rely on Rashford and at the same time need a midfielder. I'm pretty sure Ten Hag will find the player he needs and one that will make United a lot tougher than last season.

Chelsea and Pochettino, let's see how they carry out their matches when the new season starts again.

Liverpool, Klopp is very aware that his squad last season could not be fully relied on, especially the defensive line and midfielder players.  therefore, Klopp brought Mac Allister to Anfield.  but not only with Mac Allister, at least Klopp will target several other players to improve his squad so that they appear competitive next season.

Arsenal, my favorite premier league club. I only hope they will be able to return to their best game and maintain their consistency.  if they're lucky, they could potentially win a trophy although I don't get my hopes up too far.

Newcastle, I don't really follow them. but if, Eddie Howe remains in the style of play as last season. I'm not sure if they can survive in the top 4 of the Premier League.

Well, at least next season we will see these teams competing even tighter and more exciting. so, let's just let these teams do their job while in an effort to strengthen into the squad for the next season.

[ginsan]

Chelsea have several pre-season matches that their fans will be able to look forward to. One of them is the Florida Cup final match against Wrexham in July. Pochettino can prove his capacity by winning the title and prove that he is ready to bring more positive things to Chelsea. Apart from that, Pochettino will also play a friendly match against Dortmund, which is only 10 days before the first Premier League match starts.

Pochettino's biggest challenge is in the Premier League opener. Chelsea must accept Liverpool's challenge at Stamford Bridge, it will not be pleasant for him. However, Pochettino still has plenty of time to build his team up to be ready to face whoever they will face.

Indeed, that match was the first match for Chelsea under his new coach Mauricio Pochettino and I think this match will be able to assess how much influence Chelsea has played under Mauricio Pochettino. I think if you look at the depth of the opponent's squad, of course Chelsea will easily beat Wrexham.  Yes, various preparations must be made by Mauricio Pochettino in this free time to arrange a better strategy in the match later because not only fans but all football lovers will give an assessment of this match. Even though the match was a friendly match, I think Chelsea should be able to bring a change in the game by being able to win the Tropy Florida .

I don’t see Chelsea improving in the next season, to be honest. I would much further put my money on Liverpool. Because I believe if Liverpool can get a really good striker in the team, they will be able to fix most of their problems.

But we cannot say the same for Chelsea. Chelsea will have to make big changes in the team and also get a good manager. It’s really good manager can fix the problems that Chelsea has right now. But even then it will take a lot of time. Chelsea will have to spend a lot of money. I hope they are ready to do that in the next season.

Manchester United has been impressive this season. Let’s hope that they will be able to continue that performance in the next season.

Pre-matches are fine, but it is well known that those games aren't high in meaningfulness for the real season. It is good to get an overview and to also gother first impressions and an idea of the fitness level of the players, but many of those games end with results that usually would end otherwise. For those who want to get an understanding of where Chelsea might end the upcoming season, I think the only way is to wait how they are doing the first thee to four games. After that I think it is possible to draw a first conclusion. It is either a bad start or a position from where they can keep developing.

But in the next season Liverpool will play in the Europa League and of course Liverpool is very superior. Salah while playing at Liverpool he has never played in the Europa League. But next season he will play for the first time in the European league with Liverpool. I think he will make a lot of achievements in the Europa League next season, be it being the top scorer or being the best player in the Europa League.

This will determine how far they advance in the Europa League next season. We don't know who will participate in the Europa League next season, but with Liverpool there, they're among the top clubs to go far and may even win the Europa League.

Mohammed Salah is an exceptional footballer who has made significant contributions to his side since joining them in 2017. Liverpool's performance last season was outstanding, and they did particularly well towards the conclusion of the season. So I'm confident they'll do better next season in both the Premier League and other European competitions.

Everyone expects them to be better because they ended last season with a strong performance and am quite sure that with the all the lesson learnt from the poor start they had in the previous season they would use that as an advantage in their next season campaign with a couple of new players added to their squad.

Quite possibly, Liverpool are a strong enough team and compared to the teams that play there Liverpool seem not just a serious team but also a contender. They could well make it to the play-offs and get into the conditional quarter-finals, I think they will. Of course, you have to get to know the opponents in general first...

In the Europa League it may be true that Liverpool will be one of the underdogs. Because compared to the others Liverpool should indeed have a far superior performance than other clubs in the European League. Last season it was true that Liverpool were also able to play very well even though in the end they had to lose to Real Madrid in the round of 16.

And apart from that, it is also likely that Liverpool will fight better than last season in the Premier League. And I think they will also show better performance and consistency. because at the end of last season we also saw Liverpool have found their game again.

It will be interesting to see if Salah can actually win the European League competition with Liverpool. Because I think that is very much achievable for Liverpool. I also think that he is going to achieve some kind of individual thing in the Europa League. He generally plays in the Champions League where the competition is a lot more fearsome and intense. He generally performs really well in the Champions League. So I think it is needless to say that he is going to perform very well in the Europa League.

I am actually more interested to see if Liverpool can actually perform better in the English Premier League compared to what they did in the last season. I am expecting an improvement from them in their performance in the English Premier League.
