Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[X-ray]

Recently, referees in football have started to add a lot of extra minutes... Even 8 minutes is a lot, especially 11 minutes... I noticed that they started to do that a lot at the last World Cup... Probably now it will become popular in the regular leagues... Usually the referee would add 5 minutes if there were long delays in the game...

It surprises me to see the charity shield already implemented FIFA time in the last match. I would not mind that for EPL but it's happening even early than i thought. Seeing a match with more than 100 minutes will be a common thing soon as it will be also implemented in EPL.

The club must be aware if 100 minutes gonna be a common thing soon and they must have been preparing their mentality to face it. The club needs put its concentration even longer than before.
The stamina must be also fully prepared. Although the difference in time may seem small, with only 5 minutes added, I believe it still has a significant impact, as observed by the people. The club must be pushing themselves to play even longer than before.

Now Arsenal seem to have opened their doors to the arrival of a new goalkeeper as Matt Turner has officially reached a permanent deal with Nottingham Forent. This made Arsenal's percentage of success in getting David Raya from Brentford even higher, but indeed the problem of negotiating fees has not been resolved until now. We know that some time ago David Raya wanted to leave Brentford and his only goal was to go to Arsenal.

Now Aaron Ramsdale will definitely not be calm because his position as the main goalkeeper could be threatened by the arrival of David Raya, but as a professional player this is very natural, especially in a big team there must always be competition to be able to fight for first place. I hope Mikel Arteta can make the right decision later on in terms of goalkeeping and the most important thing is that the goal is to win the title together.

Honestly I was expecting Manchester City to win this Community Shield title one way or another. I waited for a good competition at the beginning of the season of course. Because this was the first official game for both teams so I didn't expect so many goals. We were about to find out which side was readier than the other one.

Palmer's goal was really lovely and I thought the game was going to end by 1-0. But it was unbelievable that there was a stoppage time of more than 10 minutes and Trossard scored the equalizer in the last moments. This was the turning point for Arsenal as they won by 4-1 on penalties.

Like you before the start of the match I expected Manchester City to win this match but at the very end of the game Manchester City's luck did not help as they came very close to winning this match and lost.  

When Manchester City scored against Arsenal in the 77th minute, I thought it might be a 1-0 game, but at the very end of extra time, the equation was thrown into disarray. L. Trossard's superb goal earns Arsenal a draw against Manchester City. Neither team managed to score against each other again after a draw against Manchester City.

The result of the match was later decided by penalties where Manchester City's players and goalkeeper proved themselves to be incompetent as Manchester City only managed to score one of the first four penalty shots against Manchester City which was a shame for Manchester City.

Before the start of the match everyone thought that Manchester City would win against Arsenal but it later took a horrible turn and Manchester City lost. Basically in most gambling sites ODDS gave small betting odds for Manchester City to win and increased betting odds for Arsenal where people mostly bet for Manchester City. Although Manchester City took the lead in the 77th minute, Arsenal scored another goal in stoppage time to draw the game. The game became more tense when the two teams drew and the game went to penalties due to no goals in extra time. We know penalties are basically a matter of luck which I think really depends on luck. When penalties started they lost due to Manchester City conceding a goal Arsenal were essentially guaranteed to win on penalties. But manchester city is very weak in the plan due to which they lost the match although this match was likely to be won but because of such bad performance of manchester city it is really a shame.

Before the match begin Manchester City is the favourite this because during train by Arteta Arsenal was never able to beat Manchester City but Arsenal is really didn't give up that they always be focus during the match and indeed late goal from Trossard is really unexpected by Manchester City that they didn't focus at the end of second half and after this goal it's clearly Arsenal can restore their mental condition and this make they can able to make epic comeback and won the game but indeed Guardiola said he was really dissappoint to see Manchester City players during penalty kick that seems they aren't ready to facing that situation however congratulations for Arsenal because finally they got their first trophy this season and this is their 17th title

Manchester City, indeed, went into the game as the favorites in this, but Arsenal, my dear friends, didn't just give in or give up. They did what they always do, by being focused during the match, which they always be doing, and indeed late goal from Trossard is what made the difference. This was something that was not at all expected by Manchester City in their own game that they didn't focus on at the end of the second half

And after this goal, it was indeed clear that Arsenal, the team that really wanted it, could restore their mental condition, and this makes that they were able to make an epic comeback. Yes, an epic one that won the game, but Guardiola said something. He was really disappointed to see his players during penalty kicks, something they seemingly weren't ready to face, which was the situation they found themselves in

But congratulations to Arsenal, who finally got their first trophy, their 17th title, indeed this season. They showed real confidence, something they do, and determination against Man City. They became the 17th Community Shield Champions, and we wait to see what unfolds in the season to start

The opening of the EPL season begins with a big game  "Chelsea vs Liverpool". Pochetino's new task, as a new coach seems he has the spirit to show if he is able to fix Chelsea. Although I don't see a big enough transfer made by Chelsea. But it seems Pocethino is focusing on fixing the mentality of the players. They had a really fantastic transfer last season, I think Pochetino wants to start again by selling some players he doesn't need. The first game is difficult to predict, but I think I would pick Liverpool to win.

I even celebrated earlier when the game had entered the 90th minute. Well, I was sure that Manchester City would be the winner of this match. But I didn't expect that in the minute of added time a miracle had come for Arsenal through a goal scored by L. Trossard in the 90+11th minute which made the match go to a penalty shootout. Maybe you also feel the extraordinary tension during the penalty shootout. But yeah, I'm really disappointed because in the penalty shootout it turned out that the Manchester City players couldn't do it optimally. But I can say that in this fight it was absolutely incredible. Both teams I think have a level that is almost equal throughout the game. And to be honest, I was surprised that Arsenal in this match could match the level of Manchester City's game. Looks like the Premier League this season is really going to be amazing. I can't wait to start the season again in the Premier League.

Arsenal have probably improved their game this season compared to last season although the new season hasn't started yet but Arsenal had a great performance in the FA Community Shield final against Manchester City yesterday. We saw a lot of hard fought play until the last time but unfortunately Manchester City failed to protect their defense in the end. When the game was tied at 1-1 a result was decided by a penalty shot, even in the penalty shot I put Manchester City ahead but when the penalty shot started I was surprised to see Manchester City's penalty shot as a team that had recently won the Champions League trophy. Penalty shots can never be that bad. However, despite not being able to enjoy the penalty, I enjoyed the whole game very much.

It is only fitting that Arsenal can win the FA Community Shield trophy, all thanks to hard work of the coaches and players who have very big ambitions to improve their performance in this new season and I am very sure that in this new season Arsenal will continue to perform consistently and be able to compete strongly with other clubs, especially City.
Arteta's efforts Arsenal coach are very good and very worthy of respect because they have achieved a very beautiful start to season and maybe this is a sign that there will be a replacement for Manchstr City in this premier league namely Arsenal who will replace his position and win titles in every competition and also I am very sure if Arteta can bring his club to appear consistently in the champions league to achieve their dream of getting a trophy in the champions league.
Maybe many will doubt Arsenal this season but Arteta will prove that bad thinking is not true and can get a title this season to make his fans proud and Arsenal's name will be known as a new history maker.

Recently Chealsea sold Edouard Mendy and now they have brought Robert Sanchez as replacement. Normally everything is okay, but since 2018 Kepa Arrizabalaga is at Chelsea and at that time they paid 80 million euros transfer fee to Athletic Bilbao. The value of him since then has fallen to 18 million euros. So the competition of the two goes not only in the same team but also in the nationalteam, they are both Spanish.

When Chelsea brought in Kepa Arrizabalaga, he was one of the most promising goalkeepers in the world. His performance was outstanding at the beginning until he began to make some costly mistakes. This led to the signing of Edouard Mendy. But the Spanish goalkeeper has regained his form which led to his reclaiming of the first-team shirt forcing Mendy to move out of the club. For now, Kepa is the first-choice keeper until his performance proves otherwise.

The first game is difficult to predict, but I think I would pick Liverpool to win.

Coach Mauricio Pochettino is restructuring the Chelsea team for better performance. He entered that the club offloaded many players that will not be part of his game plan for this season. Although there was no high-spending signing but they have gotten some outstanding players like Nicolas Jackson, Alex Matos, Diego Moreira, and Christopher Nkunku are worthy additions to the squad. The club is also preparing for next season with the signing of young players such as Kendry Paez and Dujuan Richards that will join when they get to eighteen years next year. They have also had a good preseason and the game against Liverpool will be a good test for the team. The game will be difficult to predict because we have not really seen the performance of both teams in the EPL this season, but I will go with Chelsea. The game will be Liverpool 1 --- 2 Chelsea.

My respect for Arsenal increased yesterday because in their last home and away match they played in the Premier League last season, they conceded goals and lost to Manchester City but the fight they put on yesterday is top-notch, to be honest, I even lost my ticket for having initial hope that Manchester City will win the Community Shield only to loss in the penalty. The funny thing about yesterday's loss was when Pep was interviewed that "hope he knows that this is the third time they lost the community shield" and he retaliated that it was because he won the Premier League trice in a row and nothing to worry about, LMAO 

Arsenal need to work more on what they started yesterday because out of the 5 trophies in English League, they have won 1, they need to work hard to win the Premier League, the FA Cup, Carabao Cup and the Champions League, they need all the strength to actualize this and change how the narrative of Premier League, we are tired of it been referred to farmers league.

If I consider Chelsea's performance last season then maybe I will also choose to bet on Liverpool in the inaugural EPL match Liverpool vs Chelsea. But recently Chelsea have been impressive in pre-season games which makes me wish Chelsea a little bit better But since it's only a pre-season game then. I'll ignore it a bit and maybe come back to still choose to Liverpool in EPL Match Liverpool vs Chelsea.

But I feel that Mauricio Pochettino will really make a big difference to Chelsea. Because financially even the Chelsea club is getting better after selling several players at high prices to Arab clubs. But there is one thing that is a little difficult for Chelsea at the moment, namely the process of exchanging Lukaku for Valhovic from Juventus. Namely Chelsea have to pay a lot for the process of exchanging players between these clubs.
But if Chelsea succeed in bringing in Valhovic then Chelsea's attack line will really be very sharp. And for this, Chelsea must be willing to pay more and let Lukaku go to Juventus.

By the way, starting this season in the Premier League, stoppage time will increase in order to combat time wasting, so I can assume that this is not the biggest stoppage time that we will see in the season.

I like this change. I really find it annoying to see those players that would lay or sit on the ground while trying to waste the time on purpose.

Some players like MU's Varane have already expressed their dissenting opinion on this which is understandable. The increased playing minutes may or may not be harmful to them but I think the intention of this new rule outweighs that.

It turns out that you watched the Manchester City vs Arsenal game that seriously, I didn't even watch it. With this result, it can't be used as any reference for Manchester City to perform badly. Seeing the replays of the composition is not in the main squad and Pep Guardiola is more experimenting, while Arsenal from the first minute to the penalty shootout have been very ambitious to win a trophy. I'm pretty sure Pep Guardiola has no intention of targeting this Community Shield trophy.

Mauricio Pochettino's restructuring work at Chelsea has been positive judging by the performance of the team since he took over. How he's brought out the best from some of the club's players is another factor that's gonna help the club bounce back to their best.
Judging by the preseason games, one can clearly see that Mudryk is showing the kind of brilliance that wasn't seen of him through our last season. Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson are also adapting well with the managers philosophy. Chelsea will be a big threat to the rest of  English Premier League clubs next season

Well I didn't expect to see Manchester City losing this game either but unfortunately that what exactly happened! Manchester City players weren't able to start the season with a victory, I don't know what's wrong with them with every starting matches, the beginning isn't impressive for them..
When you find yourself playing penalties, you know it is 50/50 so don't expect much from any team..
They have UEFA Super Cup next week vs Sevilla and hopefully they can bring it home at least..

It's true, Man City is out of luck and Pep Guardiola looks less ambitious to win the Community Shield trophy. Arsenal on the other hand, really need this trophy, because this year they have not won any championship trophies. The game that ended in a penalty shoot-out cannot be taken as a measure of quality, I think it would be better to think of it as luck.

Appreciation should be given to Arteta squad, which is able to offset the pressure from Man City. Hopefully they can break Man City dominance next season, with the squad's current mentality.

[execijutiere]

Arsenal won the Community Shield tournament. Arsenal made good transfers and used their budget well. City had more possession in the first half but they struggled to get shots on goal. In the second half, we watched a more balanced game. City, who led 1-0 in the 77th minute, drew 1-1 with a goal in the last seconds of extra time and the match went to penalties. In the penalties, Rodri and de Bruyne missed their penalties and they lost 4-1.

[Mame89]

i am surprised by Arsenal, they appeared very extraordinary in the community shield final yesterday, they succeeded in putting good pressure on Mancity but when they met several teams their appearance was quite bad ^{(just look at the time against Man Utd in the last friendly match)} Arsenal have the ambition to become champions on The next EPL which will start soon, i have a prediction they will stop in the top three until the end of the season.

I was actually surprised by the mental development of Arsenal players. Even though Arsenal didn't win from the start, that's fine, but the important thing is that Arsenal can keep up with Man City in open play. Haaland was also made unable to do anything in the first half. If only Arsenal had a sharp striker like Haaland, they would have won 2-0. In the second half, KDB and Phil Foden brought Arsenal down, but what I liked was that Arsenal's mentality remained stable and continued to press until Trossard scored in the last minutes and at the penalty shoot-out, Arsenal's mentality was still good. I like Arsenal's mental changes this season because of the mental factors that made Arsenal fail to win the EPL last season.

It's true, Man City is out of luck and Pep Guardiola looks less ambitious to win the Community Shield trophy. Arsenal on the other hand, really need this trophy, because this year they have not won any championship trophies.

What a fighting spirit from Arsenal. I see that the Community Shield trophy is not just winning the warm-up event, but beating a team like Man city (which last season was the best team in various competitions) is a bigger value, especially since Arsenal have lost the most against Man city. I think it's positive for Arsenal to start this season with a lot of confidence. Hopefully this year's championship ambition will be achieved and consistent until the end of the season. Being able to win the EPL is just an important bonus every week Arsenal play well and entertain.

By the way, I wonder what the Pep Guardiola reason for replacing Haaland with Cole Palmer. Although indeed, the substitution provided a quick goal for Cole Palmer as well but unfortunately, Arsenal managed to make a goal back and finally the macth continued to the penalty shootout. But indeed, I also recognize that Arsenal have great ambition and that is proven, in the end Arsenal won the trophy in this event. It's just a pity for Manchester City who were unable to maintain the victory they had in this match.

After yesterday's match between Manchester City for the community shield Arsenal has shown that if you want to frustrate City you need to have solid defence that would mark out the key players of their team and that's what Saliba did to Halland he marked him closely and cut out the connection between him and the Midfield and Halland couldn't get good passes fr   m Debruyne, fantastic play from Arteta in reading the game and holding City to a penalty draw.
 If you notice halland had, zero goal, less dribble, several position lost and few touches and because he's currently their key player in getting the goal when he's marked out it becomes difficult for City to score more and cause pressure on opposition teams, Arsenal really needed this win more because they've been in need of a trophy and this win would boost the moral of players against the start of a new season nextweek and if they continue with this zeal and hunger to win games they'll become very strong contenders and perform alot better than the previous season.

I can't blame Pep Guardiola for this result and say he is guilty of losing the game just because of not placing Haaland in another position or because of replacing Haaland and Palmer. Pep Guardiola is a wise coach and he proved it in the last season when they won many titles with this coach but still Guardiola can make mistakes, even the greatest coach in the world can make mistakes.
But I think the main reason for Macnshter City to lose that game was not Guardiola. But it was because of Haaland.

[puloweh555]

Manchester City have lost three seasons in a row in the Community Shield, previously against Leicester City, Liverpool and this year against Arsenal. But the ending is usually Man City who wins the EPL, in the EPL Man City always wins. Especially now that there is Josko Gvardiol, Man City's defense is getting stronger.

However, it must be admitted that the Man City midfield players lacked enthusiasm when playing against Arsenal. There is no agile right winger like Mahrez which makes Arsenal's defense difficult, let alone supplying the ball from the midfield which Gundogan usually does. De Bruney only played in the 69th minute, Haaland and Alvarez were nowhere to be seen, in the second minute Foden came on and started to threaten plus Cole Palmer who was the difference. Man City seems to have lost something in the Man City midfield since Gundogan's departure so far there has been no breakthrough bait that has spoiled Haaland and Alvarez.
