Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Xcode7]

Pochettino seems to be still experimenting with the players he has. he made a strategy with a different formation in the match against Fulham. This was different when Chelsea faced Brighton in the League Cup.
Chelsea's attacking game pattern looks more developed when Pochettino puts 3 players up front. rather than pushing Jackson into the opponent's defense line.
Pochettino successfully beat Fulham, I hope this will be maintained for several future matches, including against Arsenal and Man City.

I see Pochettino is still looking for the right formation so that his mission to achieve victory can be achieved. Slowly Pochettino seemed to have found the structure of a puzzle and he began to feel comfortable with developments on the field. But even though they were able to win two matches in a row, I am not completely sure that the Chelsea players will be able to maintain their consistency. But if you look at the progress, the Blues have good prospects for going in a better direction, but this is not visible in the near future. Chelsea will likely lose points again when they meet big teams such as Arsenal, Manchester City, Tottenham and Newcastle.

However, at least there is much better progress in each match. Indeed, Pochettino's task is very difficult to handle the Chelsea team, which is almost entirely filled with new players, which of course makes Pochettino have to form the framework of this team first and another difficulty for Pochettino is that Chelsea currently lacks players. suits Pochettino's coaching style or tactics.

This victory against Fulham is quite important and the consecutive wins that Chelsea have achieved will certainly make Pochettino's team raise their mentality and confidence to face the next match.

Chelsea is starting to return to winning ways and the players' mentality is improving. Pochettino must maintain the good spirits of his players so that in the next match he will also have high hopes of winning again against Burnley. But I'm not really sure that the Blues will be able to continue to perform well except against mediocre teams because the quality of players still doesn't look promising for this season so I'm pessimistic that they will be able to finish in the top six. If you look at the concept that has been developed, Chelsea has quite bright prospects and I am sure that Chelsea will be able to rise with Pochettino in the next few seasons.

Chelsea needs time before they would possibly bounced back to winning ways, they're st restructuring phase and the fans needs patience. Mauricio Pochettino is here to proof his worth to the team and the supporters. Ofcourse all the necessary signs we have been looking for is there already, eliminating a competitive side like Brighton Albion from Carabao cup and winning Fulham in EPL, two wins in a row. Our next game is Burnley and I'm 100% confident of my team thrashing them with ease efforts to maximized. Chelsea bounced back to winning ways, however I'm satisfied with the present results the blues records in their last two games.

I don't think time is the only thing Chelsea needs but then they definitely need it aswell Maybe they could perform better in the nearest future to come, especially in their subsequent games in the premier league. Pochettino arrived Chelsea since last season and his first assignment which was to make sure the team qualifies for the champions league was not achieved he failed at it.

After that he has also began the season in the premier league on a very slow and poor note making the team fall out of its glory, so what more time dose pochettino needs if he had a full season and couldn't prove himself, Will he need the whole of his stay in Chelsea to prove he is good enough for the teams? And Chelsea definitely don't have such time as the season is almost halfway soon.

I think pochettino needs work more on his tactics and player positioning so as to get the desired results required of him and not fluctuating in between wining two games and loosing three and draw one. If he fails to finish top four this season and qualify for UCL next season I think he shouldn't be allowed to spend a day further at Stamford bridge as he should be considered to have failed, it's almost two seasons now and we are yet to be impressed enough.

People have long waited for a performance like this, although I was very scared adding Chelsea to my betting slip because you can hardly predict there performance sometimes because in most cases you will think they are doing well and the next they either draw or they lose because they have actually cut most of my slip so that's why I was a bit skeptical about there winning, but actually they played really well, the efforts and tactics they used on that match if they had use that force on there previous matches they would likely won almost all the matches but I believe they're peaking form already and with this performance there next match could be a win game for them.

I will just wait for Chelsea to recover soon and enter every Chelsea match again in my betting slip.

Sorry if I sound so negative about Chelsea, but the fact that chelsea beat fullham in their previous game which was played on Monday' does not necessarily mean they have improved, or that they will improve soon.

I personally think that before chelsea will be fully back to their feet again, it may take up to two seasons more, that is, this season and  and the next coming season, for me, i am not putting any hope on chelsea through out this season, maybe by next season, we will see

[Despairo]

After Burnley win against Luton Town today, they will face Chelsea in the next 3 days later, I believe this will be sure win for Chelsea because Burnley's players are exhausted.

I'm very excited to see what Mudryk will do in this match, either people will proud of him or continue to get booed like his previous 19 matches

I expect his self confident went high,he might become a selfish player who's trying to dribbling and beat the opponents.

[Polkeins]

I was one of the people who thought Fulham would be able to beat Chelsea again, but my expectations seemed wrong and Chelsea was able to win this match. Maybe Pochettino has found a new strategy for his players to be more coordinated and the results are quite satisfying. I think they have to maintain their performance in other matches and if that is successful then Chelsea will be able to quickly climb to where they should be and not stay at the bottom of the table. It's true that scoring two goals is very difficult, especially since Chelsea had so much difficulty scoring goals a month ago. It is hoped that Mudryk can prove his quality at the price paid by Chelsea and start working harder with the other players in order to get what Chelsea has targeted later.

There were too many speculations about the Fulham vs Chelsea before start of this match with current form mostly were feeling things could be favorable for the Fulham because they were doing good job and Chelsea having serious troubles but Pochettino done good change in his strategy and it works for them as well which allow having early lead, and then they were able to keep things on good level with Fulham try his best but fail to break the deadlock and score any goal which is good for the Chelsea.

Mudryk score his first goal as Chelsea fan which is surely good for this exciting player because after paying huge amount for his transfer there was too much talk about him and his quality hopefully now after having this winning goal his confidence level will improve, and he will be able to score more goals and his team at better spot.

Pochettino is basically doing what he can given the situation Chelsea found themselves in after last season, so the win over Fulham was partly natural. Chelsea's squad is much more expensive than Fulham's, and in general, they had to start playing at some point. Mudryk broke his curse and managed to score in his 21 games it seems. So it will be easier for him psychologically for a while, as well as the rest of the team.

I hope Bowley will not give in to emotions and let Pochettino work until the end of the season, so that at least next season the team will be able to fight for prizes.

Pochettino's task is not that difficult as long as he was not making some stupid blunders like changing the formation that made players lost their confidence, putting the players out of their actual positions, and many more. As long as pochettino will not be doing stupid experiment like potter and everything will be fine. Pochettino just need to do everything in the right way. Putting chilwell as left winger was a non sense idea. I would blame him a lot once he will repeat same mistake.

This victory against Fulham is quite important and the consecutive wins that Chelsea have achieved will certainly make Pochettino's team raise their mentality and confidence to face the next match.

It has become a good win to build the mentality of the players. We did know that if chelsea has been buying so many young players and these players have no strong mentality at this moment. Even some players like mudryk was also seeing this as his first time to play in english premier league. He needs time to get his confidence to play in EPL and adapt it. As long as mudryk and whole of chelsea players were working so hard and they can get their confidences.

Regarding the match between Cagliari and Fiorentina, we saw some drama from other fans about this game. In Florence, the police tried to make the fans stop but because of that, a policeman got injured.
I don't know why this was so important for the fans to make something like this happen. However, Fiorentina won the game with a 3-1 result against Cagliari they are in 5th place in the table of Serie A.

You may wrongly post this premier league thread instead of serie a thread.

I don't think it will be for sure, it's not that I don't trust the Chelsea team but I think realistically that the Chelsea team hasn't proven to be able to play consistently well and also this match will be played at home to Burnley so it will be a bit of a tough one.
Mudryk is a player who is already quite down and what he did in his last match with Chelsea could indeed make him more confident, but I am very pessimistic about Mudryk.

[Btc_1856]

We shouldn't put all the blame on Onana. I agree it's his responsibility. Because, to be honest, MU's start was not favorable. Everyone is at fault for bringing the team down. Onana's responsibility may be greater than that of the players. If he makes a mistake, he must pay the price immediately. Onana is under pressure from the mistake he made in the last match against Bayern Munich, and this time, he continued to make mistakes. And he's making things difficult for himself. We should give Onana a chance to correct her errors.
There is still a chance for Onana to correct mistakes, but goalkeeper Onana will not be able to fix errors with empty words. He must do it with saves on the field. He should prove it with actions.

If you trust Mudryk to do some spectacular result in the coming match, then you have to also be confident in Chelsea, they might have not have a reason to impress us all but who knows what will happen the next time. Burnley hasn't in their entire life won a single match against Chelsea before, they draw only 1 out 5 they have played and lost all 4 with hot goals that were condeded from Chelsea, so imagine with all these previous statistics, I don't think Chelsea will fall hands to lose this one and Burnley is not also in good form since the start of the season.

We don't know for sure if after what they did to Fulham was only a show biz, luck or hard work but if we are to judge by excitement, you will know that other players are committed to score goals too, Burnley is the right time they can do all this to revive back their place in the Premier League if not, the fight of running from relegation place will forever continue and Boehly will be on the neck of Pochettino.

There is still a chance for Onana to correct mistakes, but goalkeeper Onana will not be able to fix errors with empty words. He must do it with saves on the field. He should prove it with actions.

Anywhere David Gea is right now will be laughing so hard. How Manchester United moves from a goal keeper that receive medal of golden glove to Onana is really traumatizing, you can't compare Onana stats with De Gea, I'm not sure about Onana place in his former team but coming to Manchester United is one of the worst move I have seen in Manchester United, either he is encourage to improve or eventually improve, Onana will not last in that club because they will dispose him and if there is not a buyer, they will bench him and bring another competent goal keeper.

Chelsea always need time to improve their condition but unfortunately if that doesn't happen soon then they will run out of time like last season when they ended up outside the top 10 and not playing in any European competition.
They can't run out of time like last season which will result in even greater fan disappointment. This is already the seventh match and later in the eighth match they will face Burnley. There is no doubt they can win over Burnley, although unexpected things can still happen again, because it seems like Chelsea with Pochettino as coach haven't shown anything that good.

There is still a chance for Onana to correct mistakes, but goalkeeper Onana will not be able to fix errors with empty words. He must do it with saves on the field. He should prove it with actions.

Onana was a very good goalkeeper when he was at Inter Milan. But when he joined Manchester United, I personally haven't seen his good saves like at Inter Milan. In fact, he often makes mistakes. We certainly still remember Onana's first match at Manchester United which also ended quite tragically. At that time Onana conceded many goals. The problem here is Onana's mentality which doesn't seem ready for the pressure that exists at a big club like Manchester United. It is common knowledge that competition and pressure at Premier League clubs is very high. And Onana made more mistakes when playing in the current Champions League with Manchester United.

I think it's natural for people to start blaming Onana for making mistakes. It's just that the poor performance of the Manchester United Club is not just Onana's fault. But Manchester United's back line is also weak. They are too easy for opponents to pass. So Onana is indeed in a difficult position. But I still hope that Onana can give the best like the performance he showed when he was still at Inter Milan.
But I couldn't lie to myself when I saw Manchester United lose. Sometimes I think about De Gea. De Gea's mentality is much better than Onana.

[rendravolt]

Anywhere David Gea is right now will be laughing so hard. How Manchester United moves from a goal keeper that receive medal of golden glove to Onana is really traumatizing, you can't compare Onana stats with De Gea, I'm not sure about Onana place in his former team but coming to Manchester United is one of the worst move I have seen in Manchester United, either he is encourage to improve or eventually improve, Onana will not last in that club because they will dispose him and if there is not a buyer, they will bench him and bring another competent goal keeper.

Even De Gea definitely continues to get entertainment when watching his former team compete because they have always had bad results so far. That is real karma for Manchester United because they have thrown away an experienced goalkeeper like De Gea and preferred a goalkeeper who was only good for one season. Erik ten Hag certainly no longer has a face in front of the Red Devils fans and now we know very well that this coach's quality is only good in the Dutch league when he handles Ajax. Manchester United is a big team and he shouldn't compare it to Ajax, where even the competitive level of the league also feels very different.

In fact, Manchester United still has a good goalkeeper like Altay Bayindir, who they brought in from Fenerbahce this summer, but unfortunately Erik Ten Hag doesn't want to trust him at the moment.

I think Onana may have shown all his abilities but he is not as good as De Gea and people know that, but even if De Gea is there they will still concede if their back line is not good, after all this is not only the fault of the players but also the coach Ten Hag is responsible for this because he is the one who sets the strategy and chooses the squad that will be fielded to compete.

I personally never blame the players either, but the coach is also to blame and besides, it seems that Manchester United needs to replace this coach with a new coach who might be able to make Manchester United perform better than at the moment which may not look better than last season. I'm sure many of their fans are disappointed with Manchester United's defeat.

Mykhailo Mudryk must gain good trust from the fans, as well as support. Fans will have to give him time to get into good shape at Chelsea, and that's as it should be. Chelsea today is no longer the Chelsea it used to be, so everything will not run smoothly without sincere struggle and sacrifice.

Winning the match against Fulham is something that can inspire the team to work better, but it is clear that they cannot be satisfied with just two wins from two different competitions. Burnley is nothing compared to Chelsea, but Burnley cannot be underestimated. Not only Mudryk, other all players also have to work harder for the team rather than for themselves.

Manchester United having poor performance in EPL games, Erik Ten Hag should held responsible for the inconsistent results they record in games. I can't believed United are yet to record any solid point in UCL despite netting goals in both games. UEFA Champions League is a difficult one for elite teams, definitely not the room for players to make blunders because they become vulnerable and easily concedes goal for the error committed. André Onana decline in performance so sudden, last season he was praised for his incredible functions in Inter Milan. Manchester United have all the possible advantage they could get at Old Trafford but still yet, they have absolutely nothing to offer other than defeats and humiliation.

I think it is appropriate for Erik ten Hag to be fired, since the beginning of his arrival at Manchester United he has made a lot of changes but this team has not improved and even his relationship with the players is not harmonious, Erik ten Hag must be responsible for all of this.
And in the UCL match against Galatasaray, Onana again became the subject of discussion because of his poor performance, and in my opinion, from the first time, Onana's performance was not impressive and the decision made by Ten Hag to replace De Gea with Onana was quite a fatal mistake.

Indeed, last season almost all Chelsea players played badly and inconsistently, and the start of the season was also not good. However, I saw that after the victory over Fulham last week, I was optimistic that Chelsea could get full points against Burnley. because looking at the development of Chelsea's game now they are better and if you look at them they are more mature in making decisions. Maybe it's also because the pressure on the team isn't as big as last season.

Mudryk is a player who is already quite down and what he did in his last match with Chelsea could indeed make him more confident, but I am very pessimistic about Mudryk.

Unlike me, I saw Mudryk scoring goals or playing in the starting line up, so I remembered Werner, who many people always said was a bad player. But personally, for some reason, I see that these two players really enjoy playing on the field, especially when scoring goals. In Chelsea's last match, not only Mudryk finally scored a goal, but player Conor Gallagher, who was the actor in Chelsea's mental revival, is still slumped to this day.

I'm sure many of their fans are disappointed with Manchester United's defeat.

Apart from Manchester United fans who feel disappointed, actually those of us who bet on Manchester United also feel this disappointment. 
Maybe what you say is true, that even if De Gea was the goalkeeper in that match, Manchester United's goal would still be conceded if Manchester United's back line was so weak.

Currently, many people are cornering Erik Ten Heg. And many people began to doubt his abilities as a quality coach. But we also need to know that in the transfer market yesterday the club's spending money was quite limited. So Erik Ten Heg even withdrew from hunting for players the club actually needed due to limited funds.

Too bad for André Onana. A goalkeeper who was one of the best in Europe is now a burden to his club. He has suddenly lost confidence and his performance is nothing to commend. He usually falls before any strike and has failed to make important saves. I have always complained when goalkeeper engage in risky passes close to their goalpost because a slight mistake can be disastrous. Although Galastataray lost the penalty it resulted in a red card against Casemiro which led to more pressure on the Manchester team. It is a shame to see if the best clubs in the world at the bottom of Group A that have low-rated teams like Copenhagen and Galatasaray. I don't know how long the Glazers will keep Erik Ten Hag as coach of the club. But we saw Højlund showing that the money invested in him was not a waste with a brace but his efforts were not well celebrated due to the loss.

It is just difficult to understand Onana right now. He is a very inconsistent goalkeeper in his career. I mean his performance at Inter was amazing in the previous season. He was one of the players who were talked about because of the number of saves he made in the Champions League. But he is desperate now.

He was like the most responsible player for the loss last night. That misplaced pass cost them too much. If it didn't happen maybe they couldn't have lost the game at least. Now I'm curious about whether ten Hag would give Altay Bayindir a chance in his place. ten Hag is also under pressure these days of course and he needs to try everything he can.
