Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[BitcoinHunt3r]

I agree that Nunez is actually a really solid striker. He was just like that while he was playing for Benfica. But since he joined Liverpool something has been going wrong. He started to waste so many goal opportunities. Maybe this was because of not being able to adapt to the environment quickly. At this point he differentiates from Haaland already.

Because nothing changes for Haaland about whether he plays for Dortmund or Manchester City. He still continues to be a goal machine just like we have seen in this season. Comparing the talents of these players Haaland is again way ahead of Nunez in my opinion. They are nearly at the same age but there is a very visible gap between the skills of these players. This is why Haaland is wanted much more than him.

Yes, these two players were initially predicted to be rivals in the Premier League unfortunately Nunez hasn't managed to get a place there but he still has a chance in the next season. Based on the price, Haaland is actually cheaper than Nunez at that time Manchester City bought Haaland with €60 million while Liverpool have to pay €80 million for Nunez but based on the quality Haaland it is better at least he has recorded several history in his first season. In the past, I believed Nunez could compete but I was wrong but let's see the following season, as a young player he should still be able to increase his potential.

I don't understand Arteta's plan for next season

Contrary to opinions, Arteta plans for Arsenal next season is easy.

1. Bin Partey and Xhaka for good amount of money.
2. get Rice to play the Deep lying playmaker role.
3. set up a jorginho rice odegaard midfield, or a midfield diamond of jorgingo rice harverts and odegaard or a Rice odegaard and harverts midfield. either will cook massively.

The big question is that, can Arsenal sign Rice from Westham? Their owner is not one that you can negotiate with easily.

On the surface level, it may seem unusual that Arsenal could allow Partey to leave considering his importance to their plans in recent years. But this can only happen if they’re sure of bringing in Declan Rice and another central midfielder for the departing Granit Xhaka. The only problem is that they’re playing in many competitions this season, they need a good depth to see them through these many games. Losing their very important midfielders in one window is something I don’t know how they’ll cope with. The new signings won’t find it easy to lace those shoes left for them next season.

I honestly did not like the idea of Partey leaving Arsenal at this time. The defensive midfielder needs a trophy in Arsenal because he really worked for it. I think a one season patient can fetch him trophy by next season.
What I do not understand is if it is Partey that is pressuring the club to leave because of Saudi money and considering he is 30 or is it the club that is presuring Partey to leave because they want to bring Rice and other younger midfielders.

Mane and Firmino have both left Liverpool and it will be difficult for Liverpool to replace their former two players as Mohamed Salah has previously been able to do well with their combination up front.
Now Liverpool must really look for two substitute players who can coordinate well with Salah so they can have a good front line.
But I heard that Liverpool are eyeing Ricardo Pepi to collaborate with Mohamed Salah.

Ricardo Pepi have not yet proving if his performance is stable, if Liverpool want to sign him, it's nothing difference like they sign Gakpo and Nunez where both of this players were good in one season. Pepi had a terrible result when he was in FC Augsburg, he played 16 matches without any score, similar like Mudryk played 15 matches in Chelsea without any score.

You're right that the Ricardo Pepi was truly a mind-blowing player when he started his career at FC Dallas, the guy was too good in securing goals in 2021 MLS season. But, once he joined FC Augsburg, his whole performance got poorer in all matches and the guy wasn't even able to secure a single goal during all those 16 matches. Pepi won't be a good player for Liverpool if he plays the way he played for FC Augsburg, and they won't be able to win if they sign an agreement with Ricardo Pepi.

However, if Pepi improves himself and shows similar performance that he has shown with FC Dallas then he can be a good player for the team. But, still I'm pretty sure that the guy won't be able to collaborate very well with Mohamed Salah in the coming matches if Liverpool signs him in the team. They should better search for another good striker that could collaborate well with Mohammad Salah.

Liverpool is not a team with a bad financial situation and they are a team that can hire the players they need and I'm sure Klopp will give the list of players to the team to make a stronger team I was thinking they are going rebuild their teams for the next season.
However, I saw some news on Germany that they beg Klopp to leave Liverpool and help their national team.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/22762750/germany-jurgen-klopp-quit-liverpool-hansi-flick/

I agree with you, presently Liverpool team is not one that struggles financially; instead i think they struggle because of change in style of play since salah left. And yes, the window is open and i am sure theres so much to explore in the market as Liverpool looks to keep Klopp and make midfield signings.

Also, Klopp is not off to manage the German national team. Not at all

Smile, I don't believe you are telling the truth when you state that Salah left Liverpool; he didn't quit the team and I don't believe he will do so any time soon. Or are you trying to say that Liverpool changed their playing style after Mane left?Sallah is one of Liverpool's top players, and I don't believe the club will allow him leave because if he leaves, the team's performance would decline from where it is now.
We all know that Liverpool's performance this year was subpar, and despite their inability to repeat their annual feat of qualifying for the Champions League, I think they will make every effort to achieve so in the upcoming season.

Sallah did not leave Liverpool and I did not anticipate that it would occur anytime soon; in fact, I was even the rumor of sallah is going to leave I didn't hear, so when I saw these, I was surprised. How could Sallah liveLiverpool given that he is one of the team's top players at the moment and that no one is criticizing him for his performance? However, Mohammed Sallah has been a great player since joining Liverpool, as I am sure everyone can attest to, and as a result, Liverpool has performed admirably lately, so I don't think they live sallah to another club at these they need to get stronger.
However, given that I believe Liverpool will do more in the upcoming season to see them in the top spots, I believe they will also hire new intelligent and experienced players this time around in order to prepare strongly for the next coming season.

There is no aura of joy there. And this is a burden that makes them "stuck" with the establishment of a circle with high pressure. And when the scoreboard looks minor, the mentality of the players seems to be dropping, this is serious work for the new coach Pochettino. Chelsea must respect the process more and that can be done with the presence of a cool-handed coach, maybe this can be done by Pochettino. Chelsea must learn from MU (FERGUSON), Man City (Guardiola), Arsenal (Wenger/Arteta) or even Atletico Madrid (simone). Regardless of the scoreboard results, win or lose, these teams have a clear playing character.

Until recently, Arsenal had big problems with this, as in Manchester United. The coach for the team is a very important component, he must also be a good psychologist who can support the players at the proper emotional level. Considering this, I think that Lampard had the opposite effect for Chelsea, I still don’t understand why he was called to the team, everyone knew that he would be in this place temporarily, therefore, psychologically, this did not give the players any result. Yes, Pochettino has a lot of work to do right now, but he is a great coach who has proven his level and I am almost sure that with Chelsea he will be able to achieve even greater results than he achieved with Tottenham.

Liverpool have been monitoring this player since 2021 and even other clubs such as Manchester United are also interested in bringing it
From here we can understand why 2 big Premier League clubs are eyeing this player this means that Ricardo Pepi has something that can be considered
Another option if Liverpool managed to bring him, maybe he could be lent to another club as an investment.

Roberto Firmino has confirmed his departure from Liverpool after his stay ends on June 30, and so far Liverpool will only have Darwin Núñez as a centre-forward if they do not find a replacement for Firmino. Darwin Núñez has been very unstable this season, but maybe Klopp will start him as often as possible if Liverpool don't find another striker.

I think the plans will be to go without a striker signing as I have seen Klopp using Carvalho, Jota and Gakpo at this position earlier. So I don't think they are *actually* looking for another striker at the moment. I think it likely would be Diaz-Gakpo-Salah for Liverpool leading the attacks and maybe Klopp plans to rotate from matches to matches. Also it would be hard currently for Liverpool to actually sell Darwin Nunez and they are not the type of club to sell someone that was brought for a huge fee and take a loss, so I think Nunez will be given fair amount of chances next season as well to develop and showcase his talent. Earlier Klopp also defended the player when fans doubted about his finishing skills, so hopefully Nunez can really show that he was all worth the money Liverpool spent on him.

There are rumors about the arrival of a new striker, but so far I think it's just rumours. Liverpool basically have Nunez, but because Nunez's form has been disappointing some times, then Liverpool need to find another striker who can back up Nunez when his form is poor. But I'm sure Nunez will be better next season, but Klopp has to give him a lot of faith.

I think there is no dire need for Liverpool to get a striker but even if they are then I think they are looking for backup player as a striker. So far their main focus has been on midfield in this transfer window.

[Rockstarguy]

Newcastle just got what they wanted to get the got the ticket for champions league even if they didn't have enough potential for it.
But for the next season, I don't think Newcastle can stay on top of the table.

For Newcastle to use only one season to revive their performance to be among the top four club is a great improvement.  I don't have doubt about Newcastle.  If Newcastle decides to spend money to sign in more strong players things will definitely change for them which will enable them to be top competitors in every league. Newcastle performance in the concluded season was very great which was not even expected from them. The transformation of Newcastle performance during the season can motivate them to do better in next season. For the   fact that Newcastle are move to sign good players to strengthen their squad they have high chances to be among the top clubs in premier league and in Champions league.

It does look like Manchester City are working on a bid for Declan Rice. They have strongly joined the race to sign him, alongside Arsenal. This Manchester city news can only mean two things, Manchester city are more dead serious than Arsenal about Rice or westhan know Arsenal really wants to buy Rice but dilly dallying and a news about Manchester city coming with a bid could speed things up. These things aren’t cast in stone. But I feel the ball is still in Arsenal's court. Rice still prefers to join them. West Ham wanted a bidding war and now they have it. Arsenal will need match whatever bid Man City put forward.

Ricardo Pepi is still very young, now he is only 20 years old and his performance is also not consistent, it is very risky to expect more from a young player like this.
Liverpool are on a downturn and what happened last season was very bad for this team and to overshadow next season they will improve a lot but I don't think Ricardo Pepi is the right solution.
since being left by Mane last season and this season Firmino also left there has been no suitable replacement in the Liverpool team.
Gakpo and Nunez did not put in the best form in their first season.

[Unknown Op]

Mohammed Salah's special treatment at Liverpool isn't something that came from nowhere. He deservedly earned the king's treatment he's been getting at Liverpool because of scintillating performances he's delivered as a Liverpool player.
Before Salah's arrival, Liverpool hadn't won the English Premier League for over two decades and last won the UEFA Champions League in 2006 but after he arrived at the club, he changed the club's status quo by winning the English Top Flight since it was renamed as the English Premier League and also helping the team to European Cup glory

Mohamed Salah is one of Liverpool's brightest stars and has done so much for the club, so it is only natural that he will receive special treatment. Before Mohamed Salah joined Liverpool, Liverpool did not have much success but since Mohamed Salah joined Liverpool, Liverpool has been very successful and has played the main character in winning many big matches. In the early to mid-season of the 2022-23 season, Liverpool was not in a very good position but due to the great performance of Muhammad Salah, Liverpool finished the season at number five in the points table. So it is natural for the Liverpool management to be a bit more caring towards him.

Unquestionably Mohamed Salah has had a positive impact on Liverpool and his outstanding performances have greatly aided the team success. However as football is a team sport where joint efforts matter it would be wrong to credit Salah alone for Liverpool improvement. While the management acknowledges Salah significance and attempts to offer assistance consideration and resources to all significant players it is critical to avoid giving anyone undue preferential treatment that could interfere with team cohesion. The team fifth place performance in the 2022–23 season was a communal accomplishment and it is important to recognise everyone achievements. A healthy and competitive environment where each player may continuously develop and contribute to the success of the team is fostered by striking a balance between treating everyone equally and recognising individual talent. The management of Liverpool works to foster such a climate appreciating Salah contributions alongside the team collective efforts as a whole.

It was really unlucky for Arsenal to face after they were very sure that they would be closer to being able to get Declan Rice but their rivals last season, namely Manchester City, also did not want to lose to securing Declan Rice's services. Arsenal previously experienced the same thing last winter when they wanted to bring in Mudryk and were one step away from getting it, but that's where Chelsea moved in with a fantastic offer that made Mudryk finally choose Chelsea over Arsenal.

I can't understand why Arsenal's plans have to be tripped up by other teams if Declan Rice later transfers to Manchester City. However, the competition for Declan Rice has only just begun and now it remains only for the player to decide which club to play for next season.

Arsenal has made several offers to West Ham to get the services of Declan Rice, but in the second offer again and again the Gunners have been refused, this is because the transfer fee is considered unable to meet the conditions given by West Ham, the offer that was made offered by Arsenal, namely 90 million euros and on the other hand West Ham wants the release of Declan Rice worth 100 million euros. In my opinion, this is quite excessive for West Ham because, with this very high price, it is certain that several clubs who want to bring in Declan Rice will most likely prefer to look for other alternatives. True, apart from that, there has now been the latest news regarding Manchester City's plans which are reported to be not going to give up on being able to get Declan Rice's services, and I heard that The Citizens will make an offer that exceeds Arsenal and will continue to try to be able to get him. I think it looks like Declan Rice will really anchor at Manchester City and it is certain that The Citizens' performance in the Premier League next season will be sharper if Declan Rice manages to join.

That is because both Manchester City and Chelsea are much stronger financially and can make better offers.

But the best part about Mudryk now is that he chose Chelsea and it was only the right decision for the money, but pursuing goals with his team has now come to a temporary end whereas Arsenal played a highly exciting season. But all the players first look at the money, then decide. But I think that Arsenal has better chances this time when they would compete with Chelsea for a new player because Arsenal has the better prospects at least in the short term. So maybe money does not win always.

Darwin Nunez was compared to Haaland. And while not scoring as many goals as Haaland, I think Darwin Nunez has the potential. He is not a worse player than Haaland. Since Liverpool's entire team was unstable. So we don't get a better performance than Darwin Nunez. If the Liverpool coach is able to stabilize the squad next season, we will probably see more goals from Darwin Nunez.

Sure, Darwin Nunez isn't a bad player. But he isn't comparable with Haaland. The number of goals means a lot, mate. It indicates how the performance of a player, especially since he is a striker (CF). You can see that the number of Nunez's goals in the last season is even not half of Haaland's total goals. Nunez's contribution to the field is also not as significant as Haaland's contribution. So, I'm not sure if Nunez has a chance to perform like Haaland in the next season. Although he is quite skillful but he doesn't have a good mentality as Haaland.

Nunez was predicted to play an important role in his squad after showing a very impressive performance at his old club, but in reality he had difficulty adapting to Liverpool which made him unable to show his best game. While Haaland didn't take long to adapt to Manchester City, he immediately became the new idol of the Etihad public due to his prowess in scoring goals. Haaland was more successful than Nunez in his first season in his at EPL career, he was able to bring Manchester to their first treble winner as well as being the top scorer in the EPL and UCL.

After going through a first season at Liverpool that was not too impressive, Nunez had to try hard to improve his performance like when he was defending Benfica. I can't say Nunez is a failed purchase for Liverpool because he has just finished one season with Liverpool.

I cannot ignore the fact that Nunez's transition to Liverpool has been far from seamless. Haaland's success at Manchester City starkly contrasts with Nunez's struggles. But to blame Nunez alone for this would be unfair. Football is a team sport, and the performance of one player is significantly influenced by the overall team performance. I think the team's declining performance was a major factor in Nunez's difficulties in finding his footing. But this was only his first season, and judging him solely based on this would be premature. Nunez is a player of significant quality, as his past performances indicate. I strongly believe he will bounce back in the next season and make a valuable contribution to Liverpool.

I can't understand why Arsenal's plans have to be tripped up by other teams if Declan Rice later transfers to Manchester City. However, the competition for Declan Rice has only just begun and now it remains only for the player to decide which club to play for next season.

According to reliable sources, Declan Rice doesn't mind going to either Arsenal or Manchester City, what would decide the club he moves to is how talks progress between West Ham and the two clubs respectively. Arsenal have sent two bids to West Ham which have both been rejected, City are yet to make any official bid, but we know how strong they are financially; thus i'd not be surprised if City make just one bid to West Ham and it'd be accepted. The hierarchy at City know how to do good business and they might beat Arsenal to the signing of Declan Rice, just as they did to them to win the EPL title last season.

I can't blame Arsenal for the Declan Rice and Mudryk situation.
For Mudryk, he was just not worth what Shakhtar Donetsk were asking. There was no way in hell any club in Europe other than Chelsea would have bought Mudryk for about 90million. That's crazy. His market value was around 45 million but Arsenal were willing to offer around 60 million and I feel that's a fair offer. That was very bad business from Chelsea.
Manchester City are not known for bad deals but they might be making one if they go ahead and sign Declan Rice for anything higher than 80 million (he's not even worth up to that by the way) because they still have Rodri who is currently the best DM in Europe right now and the have Phillips are a back up. Rice, as good as he may be is a totally unnecessary signing for City.

With Mudryk it was the fee being little over the top for Arsenal so they left the race for him. In Rice's race, the most  crucial thing was Gundogan's decision to stay or leave and now that he is reported to be leaving, City is joining the race as *expected*. Rice is open to join any club so it is going to be bidding war between the clubs interested in him which are Arsenal and Man City as of now. But we all know how deep City's pockets are so if they are really after this player then Arsenal has lost the Rice race.

Sometimes direct talks with coach of the interested teams can also sway things towards the club so both clubs might try to do that as well. For Arsenal I think they might leave the race if at any point they feel like the fee West Ham are asking is not actually going for.

West Ham United just need to play productively in order to benefit tremendously from the Declan Rice development. The Englishman is Arsenal's priority in the transfer window, but I'm still wondering what's holding them back, they want the player, they should go for him despite the significant price tagged on him, he's worth it because he had a superb performance this season, they should hurry because they've already missed out on potential players in previous transfer windows, and letting Declan Rice swift out of their hands would be a huge loss for them, as for the cityzens, before they signed any player, Pep Guardiola needs to be 100% assured that he needs this particular player and they always spend wisely.

Comparing the talents of these players Haaland is again way ahead of Nunez in my opinion. They are nearly at the same age but there is a very visible gap between the skills of these players. This is why Haaland is wanted much more than him.

As a scorer, Haaland is head and shoulders above everyone else now plus City are dominating and Liverpool had a very bad season so I don't think it makes sense to compare them. If next season Liverpool is normal, then perhaps Nunez will even compete with Haaland for the top 1, because despite the fantastic start and many records, Haaland scored only 6 goals more than Kane, who plays for the miserable Tottenham.
