Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Iranus]

So many expectations are placed on Pochettino to build Chelsea into a formidable club since the last two coaches that were brought into the club failed woefully to build Chelsea into the formidable club that the owner wants her to be despite spending hundreds of millions in signing quality players.

Everyone is having high expectation on Pochettino, and am also having the believe that he will perform well, but expectation shouldn't be too high, lets just hope Pochettino those not disappoint most Chelsea fans because they already put hope on him to rebuild Chelsea back, actually we all see the effort Pochettino is making just to build new squad, i know next season wont really be easily for him, so Chelsea fans shouldn't just expect everything to change at the beginning of next season, he needs to be given time to balance everything, they shouldn't put too much pressure on him. I just hope things work out well for him.

I think Chelsea fans will be disappointed if they have high hopes for Pochettino. I don't think Pochettino was very successful with PSG. Chelsea's problem is much the same as PSG's. Chelsea's squad has plenty of star players, but the bond between them is weak. Due to this, the performance of the team is not consistent. Pochettino will definitely need to develop a better match strategy, as well as strengthen the bond between the players. Then maybe Chelsea's performance will be somewhat stable. But I don't think Chelsea will fight for the title next season. A longer period of time is needed to build a squad capable of fighting for the title.

Pep Guardiola has done a very good job so far. Pep has proven that when Manchester City win the Premier League in the 2021-22 season, things like that also spread, but the Manchester City coach proved they could maintain team stability and it was proven that Manchester City managed to defend the Premier League title in the 2022-23 season

Manchester City are no doubts still the defending champions for the premier league next season and can win it again. They were able to show last season that they can perform consistently all through the season. They won the league last season because they were clearly better than every other premier league team, not because there were no good teams in the league. Manchester City had no problem winning the premier league last season and will not also have a problem this season if they can play well, they dominate the league already. The league that will give them a problem, were they are not as sure as winning the premier league is the champions league. They may not be able to defend it.

The problem I have is that even though they are the current Premier League champions, that does not guarantee they will win the trophy next season. The majority of people are judging the next season based on this [last season]. Guardiola has been a great coach for some time and has built himself, and they actually did maintain stability. Even though I don't support Manchester City, I was still astonished by their performance, as did everyone else. Winning three trophies was just incredible, but I'm confident that it won't happen again the following year.                                     

However, this is a completely different case. At least they are judged not on last season, where they won three trophies, but on several other seasons. You, as a Manchester City fan, know better how they have performed in the Premier League over the last few years. They've won their league title several times before and could well do it again

The most stable club in the Premier League is still Manchester City. Liverpool and Manchester United are trying to strengthen themselves. And adding more talented players to the team. But we are not sure if they will be able to perform consistently well in the coming season. Because new players need time to adapt to the team. And so I consider Manchester City as the favorite for next season's Premier League title. But I'm not sure if Manchester City will be able to maintain their dominance in the Champions League.

I don't think it matters that they won't be able to maintain their dominance. If the team keeps winning, it will soon get boring. As for the players, they will have time to adapt, at least pre-season training, then the first few games where they will appear as replacements, so that's not a problem. I wouldn't be so sure about Liverpool though, they still don't look great, we'll see them in the first few rounds

Pochettino's burden is very heavy because Chelsea is currently a team that is in a very downturn and right now they are overhauling a lot of players in the squad so Pochettino has to reorganize this team from the start.

If the Chelsea owners are very realistic with the clubs situation; then i  would say that Pochettino burden at Chelsea is not heavy. Its a tough and doable task. Over 9 first team players are sold and replaced with very young talents which means its a rebuild under Pochettino

For me, i think it would be magic if Pochettino is able to get champions league football with that squad; they are all new, no chemistry, no depth; just too many new signings. Time will tell

Onana for 40-50mil is a good deal if we are being honest!! Also Onana is perfect fit for Manchester united judging by his success at Ajax with his former gaffer!!! And also looking at how Eric ten hag wants to play, they really need a goalie who is good with his feet and there are just little goalies who are better than him with the foot right now!!!

That's why Man United was interested in Onana, but Man United's bid for Onana was rejected by Inter because it didn't match the expected price, the offer level was still too low.

That's very sad that De Gea is not under contract anymore with any team even after the achievements he got in Manchester United, De Gea is a great player and he is still in the situation to have good performance......

Yes, it is. de Gea has gone through difficult times with Man United and has also made quite a good contribution. However, at this time Man United was interested in another goalkeeper and the contract ended. We know that sometimes, Ten Hag has surprising ideas to manage the club as we see in the previous season.

I don't know why Arsenal got so screwed up at the end of the season, but I was very surprised by their results when they could easily win the EPL but lost points against weak clubs... If they've bought new players now, there's hope they won't make such offensive mistakes next season... Although Man City are the best right now, they have managed to take all the cups they could...

Some of their players went on injury and some of them got tired at the end of the season, which lead to them performing poorly at the end of the season, I was just surprise when arsenal was drawing and losing the small clubs which they are suppose to win which will help them maintain their first position on the league, they made Manchester City won the league even before the last match was being played. I was really disappointed by Arsenals performance because they made everyone had hope in them to win the league even people that are not arsenal fans already believed they will win the league.
Manchester city won three cups last season, they really deserve it, they performed well last season, and I still have believe that they are going to perform well in next season.

Time will indeed prove and give the right answer for everything, because I also believe that Pochettino will be able to overcome his difficulties at Chelsea, which is already in a slump. I believe this because Pochettino is a coach who is very experienced and with more new players who have been brought into the team, it will be a little easier for Pochettino to apply the tactics he has for the Chelsea team. So that the opportunity for performance improvement at Chelsea has the potential to occur more quickly next season.

What Chelsea has done this season is a pretty big overhaul they have done and I hope what they have done can be successful in next season. Many key players have been sold and it is an interesting event that is happening at Chelsea at the moment. Even the big teams are ready to buy the players sold by Chelsea. Pochettino will start next season with the addition of new players and their squad has completely changed from last season. So at least there is a reason for Chelsea's management in this decision because judging from the individual quality of the players being sold they are quite good and I hope they don't make blunders in this transfer window.

But for now we rarely hear news about Aubameyang, whether he will be retained by Chelsea or he will also be sold in this season's transfer window. I think he also failed to shine last season in Chelsea front line.

I don't agree if you say Pochettino will not be burdened by Chelsea's demands. Pochettino has signed a contract to do his job of reclaiming the glory left for Chelsea in recent seasons. He has to take responsibility for the job he chooses to do, so obviously that will be the weight Pochettino is most likely to think about during his stay.

Chelsea supported him with a budget and smoothed out his development plans by selling several senior players. This team has been very different and there is no certainty whether Pochettino will succeed in a few seasons or maybe he will suffer the same fate as Tuchel, Graham Potter and Lampard.

Surely there will be stronger pressure from Chelsea management on Pochettino next season. Because last season Chelsea did not display its best form as a big team in the Premier League, so it is hoped that his presence as the new Chelsea coach will bring Chelsea back into a strong team next season. Now seeing the big shake-up Chelsea have done in this transfer window I'm not too sure they will be stronger next season. Chelsea haven't made many big signings in this season's transfer window due to having a large stock of the players they brought in in last season's transfer window.

So Chelsea last season were really weak in their defense and front line. But so far there have been no players to be positioned as attackers that they managed to bring in. If they fail to make any changes up front, then their form may be even worse compared to last season.

Well they signed so many players in the previous transfer window so they got so many new players. They sold only old players and they just have to implement new players into their squad and start playing well. They bought too many players and they didnt hit well last season

[JoyMarsha]

Pochettino will definitely need to develop a better match strategy, as well as strengthen the bond between the players. Then maybe Chelsea's performance will be somewhat stable. But I don't think Chelsea will fight for the title next season. A longer period of time is needed to build a squad capable of fighting for the title.

If Pochettino succeeds in making every Chelsea bond well with one another in the field of play and giving them the mentality that they can beat any club(big or small), the Chelsea team will be fighting for the premier league title next season. because by right, they have the caliber of players that suppose to take them to the top of the PL table every season, lifting about one or two trophies at the end of each season.

If Andre Onana comes that is a different story, but Manchester United is not all set if they start into the new season with only young goalkeepers. I guess that is why they stl keep the option with De Gea as some kind of joker. But De Gea won't play that game for very long and I assume he will make Manchester United bleed hard financially if they have to decide and offer him another new contract. He won't sign a contract below his expectations.

Over reliance on Degea almost gave Teng Erik a hypertension when he thought of making it among the top 4 was squashing out right in front of his eyes, it took lots of combine effort and extra calculations before they got to that spot again and he doesn't want to repeat this mistakes again, he is taking his chances to source for another good goalkeeper and as Onana  is available in the market, they are putting extra effort to bring him to Manchester United but De Gea unofficial announcement and what to expect in the future is not available, the club and him are not saying anything and that is why people think they Manchester United may still need De Gea.

Well so far the most recent news is that Manchester United raised their offer for Onana, but a deal has not been signed yet. That means De Gea is still in the game and it is even better for him if a new deal takes time as that also poses the risk for Manchester United that De Gea goes elsewhere and Inter then knows that they could raise the price for Onana even further. I wouldn't count on De Gea waiting until Manchester United made their final decision. He will also see what the market is doing and try to sign a good contract with a new team if that is what suits him best. Ten Haag has to express his distrust or otherwise he wouldn't want a different goalkeeper and if it doesn't work he suddenly has to trust De Gea again.

Undoubtedly, there would be a lot of expectations from Chelsea management and club fans on Mauricio Pochettino come next season because of the fact that he knows how to turn an average team to a very competitive just like he did with Tottenham Hotspur.
However, I don't think the club's management board would want to put too much pressure on him. Pochettino would be given time to build Chelsea to a very strong club that'll will be very competitive in not just domestically but also in Europe

That's the attitude that we can't see from the Chelsea board because they relatively don't have long patience if they see the team's performance is not good and the management will issue a decision to fire the coach as we have seen last season. However, if Pochettino is given time to slowly build a team, I think Pochettino will succeed in bringing Chelsea to a better state in the coming seasons.

We don't see the names of Chelsea players who are admired by the fans like the Chelsea squad in the past few seasons when at that time they had quite a good striker like Drogba.  For now, Chelsea have to look for stickers that are truly productive in scoring goals and that will make a big difference for them in the coming seasons. Even Chelsea offer had just been rejected by osimhen when they wanted to bring him in.

Chelsea owner shall stop make its intervention to the club. It's far better and it will be also making pochet has less burden rather than seeing todd was intervening the club. Todd must have learned from what happened to its club last season once he was making so many intervention to the club.
Let the coach to get done with his jobs as a coach. Todd boehly shall only watch how pochettinog will be managing its club.

For me, i think it would be magic if Pochettino is able to get champions league football with that squad; they are all new, no chemistry, no depth; just too many new signings. Time will tell

It's very far from realistic if you were talking about the possibility of winning UCL. Let's cheal come back to the top place. It's quite enough rather than putting huge target for next season.
Chelsea must not be performing the same as last season. No more bottom position for chelsea. It's disgusting to see the club being placed at the bottom at the end of season.

I think Chelsea fans will be disappointed if they have high hopes for Pochettino. I don't think Pochettino was very successful with PSG. Chelsea's problem is much the same as PSG's.

But I don't think Chelsea will fight for the title next season. A longer period of time is needed to build a squad capable of fighting for the title.

We haven't seen his performance with Chelsea, so we have to see how Chelsea plays under Pochettino. For that I hope not to be a big disappointment for Chelsea fans because next season Chelsea is still in the squad building stage and it will take time after having slumped this season. So one of the important things is to give him full support for the policies he has undertaken in building Chelsea to be stronger by being in the top 4.

Pochettino presence is indeed one of the hopes of Chelsea fans because he is quite familiar with the Premier League situation. So that one of the forms that it needs is signing players for some of the gaps in the weaknesses that exist in the depth of the team.

Todd boehly shall only watch how pochettinog will be managing its club.

Well, there should not be a complete refusal to control the club, but it is also not worth taking on the functions of a sports director. Let's still hope that Todd Boeli still took into account the mistakes of last season and will completely give this area to more competent people. Still, Pochettino should be engaged in his coaching duties, and not constantly monitoring the transfer market.

Waiting for the fans gonna blame him again once chelsea will face another horrible performance next season. It's now many people put really high expectation for them. Pochettino is also still doing hard job to sell as many players as possible.
The chelsea squad is still extremely big right now compared with the squad owner by another club. Chelsea is holding so much money right now.
Waiting for further movement by pochettino to buy the new player to strengthen the club.

Pochettino should revamp the Chelsea team. Chelsea have a lot of players in their squad, a lot of star players in the team. But Chelsea management should now consider Pochettino's decision. If coach Pochettino can build a squad with complete will and freedom then it will be easier for him to stabilize the squad. And if the Chelsea management interferes in the formation of the squad then it will not be easy for coach Pochettino to keep the team stable.

With Manchester United putting together a team, I'm guessing they'll resurrect Old Trafford as a dream stadium. Mason Mount's picture has appeared online, exercising with his new teammates, and it's great to see him grin in his first appearance for the Red Devils. Lisandro Martinez is delighted to have him at the club; in fact, the Argentina international filmed a funny video of them partnering up in training, with Martinez giving him a chitchat. The presence of Mason Mount will be much missed by the Blues; it will be a difficult period for them, but don't worry, the club will recover with time.
