Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

Harry Maguire often makes mistakes. In fact, I think his worst performance was last season. And at the start of this season it's still the same. But I think in the last few games he has improved a little. In fact, he tends to be better than the other English squad defenders. Even in his last match with Man Utd he was also able to help the attack line by making 1 assist. But Harry Maguire's weakness is that sometimes he makes too many fouls which can endanger his team's goal. But to be honest, I also hope he leaves Man Utd. Because it seems like he doesn't fit in there. He seems to need a club with player competition that is not too high. Meanwhile, at Man Utd, we know that the competition between players is very fierce. And sometimes this is what makes the squad unable to play well.

Maguire is no longer the record holder for the number of mistakes in Manchester United, because this season he has a worthy opponent, this is Onana.)) In fact, Manchester United have a lot of problems this season, and Maguire is not the worst of them. Can we say that Ten Hag failed this season, perhaps, but the beginning of the season is a failure, that’s for sure. And you shouldn’t hope that something will change and the team will start winning, it’s difficult in this situation, it seems to me that he doesn’t know what to do next.

Too many judging Manchester United season when the season hasn't gone halfway, is that a good way to approach the situation?
This is October just two months since the start of the league, at least we should see how Manchester United navigates towards their goals.
Just like Erik Ten Hag has said, all of the challenges gives him a second chance to re-access the options he has.

Harry Maguire haven't played too much games though, only a few, and when playing for Manchester United you could see he plays without confidence and composure. My prayers are with Onana to have a quick turn around. LoL.

The negative affect from international break is when some players are return to their clubs with got injured so that's why some of European managers doesn't really like if their players playing with their national team and recently it just happend to Tottenham that confirmed their defender player Cristian Romero condition was not certain after defend Argentina national team and if Romero will not available this weekend i think this is big lost for Tottenham because so far his duet with Micky van de Ven was very strong to guarded Tottenham defensive lines and for every matches Romero always be performing well so if Romero not available when Tottenham playing against Fulham next weekend i think this will have any affect for Tottenham performance later

The international break has been making so many players are suffering various problems but mostly the players were injured. Im feeling disappointed caused by some clubs must be missing their important players. this will be also affecting the performance from the club once it will face a very important schedule in the continuation of domestic league. I see that even some players may absent for long term. Romero may out for weeks or months. Totenham is sufferng huge loss by missing him.
Son is also rumored get injury too.
https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/tottenham-cristian-romero-heung-min-son-injury-update-fulham-b1114441.html

Tottenham pair Heung-min Son and Cristian Romero will be assessed for knocks sustained on international duty when they report back to the club on Friday, although there is no serious concern about either player.

Son and romero have been always become starting line up. I can't even imagine the performance of totenham without those guys which were always contributing a lot in any matches.

Oh, poor Manchester United that every season they always have players that is always bringing the club backward. Onana has become a pain in the ass since he came to old Trafford. Eric Hag wanted to bring in a player that will help to stop excess and unwanted goals and that was why he went for Onana, but instead he went to bring a bigger problem to the team compared to the problem of De Gea and Maguire last season.

It is a very sad thing to see that Manchester United is still fighting to win matches and everyday, it is like they are declining in their performance. I hope that when the transfer window opens, we will see a new player that will solve a little from the challenge that Manchester United is having when it comes to playing and winning matches. If this is not done, there is nothing for Manchester United this season but failure.

I would rather than pick the match between city vs brighton as a hottest match rather than liverpool vs everton. In fact, city was not in a good shape as well as brighton. These club are trying to get full points from upcoming match while arsenal is also facing chelsea.
Those matches are the hottest match in this week. I prefer to take chelsea vs arsenal as the hottest match this week. It's caused by these london derbies have been always become a way to prove which club that is dominating london.
That will be interesting caused by havertz will be coming to the stamford bridge as a competitor for chelsea after he had been winning UCL with chelsea previous seasons. Arsenal may be getting a tough game against chelsea.
Pochettino needs to be careful with arsenal's attackers. The result from that match is quite easy to predict as arsenal will be winning the game.

Manchester City have poor performance in Premier League in last two matches, they loss two matches in a row from Wolves and Arsenal make their position dropped to 3rd standings awhile. I think interested with Manchester City vs Brighton Albion match because moment for The Citizen recovery to winning trend. London derby always interested but looking on current standings team not related with Chelsea on 11th position against Arsenal on 2nd placed. Although not balance yet performance between Arsenal and Chelsea but London derby always interested for watching and know who will be the London winner Chelsea or Arsenal.

Chelsea have show their top perform if want back the top fourth place, if loss again warning for Pochettino position because he still fail make Chelsea on top fourth standings.

I don't think Harry Maguire would have been called up to the England national team if he was overrated. That's why it might be a bit harsh to say it's exaggerated. He definitely has talent and it wouldn't be right to claim otherwise. However, he is very error-prone and this causes big problems in the teams he plays for.

It's really a big joke if someone think Maguire is playing because of his big name, he should become a brand ambassador if he's a bad player. People always forget 1000 good deeds for one fault, so that's why vast majority think Maguire is a bad player.

Maguire is a good player, he good in build up since he has a good long ball pass accuracy and clearance.

Harry Maguire performance could be said to be not very reliable in defense, he made several defensive errors, but at different times he was able to do crucial things for Manchester United. He is very good in terms of ball control, although his performance is not very impressive, but in terms of holding the ball Maguire is very good. Even though his performance is mediocre, his presence still really helps Manchester United in terms of defense and attack.
Maybe it was for this reason that England coach Gareth Southgate entrusted Harry Maguire with a position when England beat Italy with a final score of 3-1 for England to win.

[bayu7adi]

Chelsea have show their top perform if want back the top fourth place, if loss again warning for Pochettino position because he still fail make Chelsea on top fourth standings.

Facing Arsenal in a challenging match, it seems that a defeat for Chelsea could be a somewhat accepted outcome for Pochettino. This is due to the fact that Arsenal is currently a formidable team, as evidenced by their recent victory over Manchester City. It demonstrates that Arsenal is truly at the peak of its performance early in the season, with only a 2-goal difference separating them from the current league leaders as they sit at second place.

However, what may not be forgiven is if Chelsea suffers a loss to Brentford on October 28. Should Chelsea indeed face defeat, Pochettino's position might come under some threat, as he could be perceived as failing to make Chelsea competitive in the EPL. While Pochettino is likely to be given more opportunities in the weeks to come, his position will, at the very least, be in a somewhat precarious state.

Harry Maguire is said to be monitored by Milan these days. This must be great news for Manchester United to get rid of him easier.    Honestly him and Lindelof have been really inadequate in the defense line so far. Varane and Martinez's absence has been felt very much because of this situation.

Manchester United can surely find a better defender than Maguire to do a good job when there is a need. Their defending has been horrible recently. I wonder why Milan are interested in him as well. Maybe they would think of him as a backup defender if he doesn't perform well there too.

And of late Maguire has improved of late and either with improvement or not manchester will want to get rid of him don't be surprised that he eventually goes to Milan he might play better because sometimes a change in environment might help him psychologically and then starts reflecting physically. because for some time now Manchester United has not really enjoyed Maguire and there is no way he can be left on the bench since he is getting paid.

there are very good defenders that Manchester United can buy because they are seriously in need of good defenders, the structure of Manchester United is currently not in order and they need to work on it as fast as possible if the deal to sell Maguire comes true then they should start scouting for a new replacement. if anyone is interested I will advise them to sell him is not much of use currently so is better is move his career somewhere else.

Liverpool vs Everton will take place in Round 9, as Liverpool are currently in a good position they will try well to win. Moreover, Liverpool will definitely have a strong attack against Everton as the game will be played at Liverpool's home ground so they will do enough to win the match. But if Liverpool think Everton is light and normal, it will be foolish and Liverpool will likely lose the match. So Everton will have to play an aggressive game in Liverpool as both teams currently have good attacks in order to win. However, Liverpool's last two matches have been very poor where they drew with Brighton, and lost against Tottenham. Accordingly they need to improve their game and play the match against Brighton well and get a win but they can move to a good position in the points table.

Liverpool lost points in 2 recent matches in the Premier League. Specifically, they lost 1-2 to Tottenham, and Brighton drew 2-2. Liverpool dropped to 4th place on the rankings. The fact that they defeated Everton in this match was a moral encouragement for them. Verton is currently still ranked near the bottom of the rankings. With this form, they can hardly hope to create a surprise.
With home field advantage, I believe Liverpool will win all 3 points in this match. Mohamed Salah will shine in this match. Because Everton's weakness has been clearly shown.

The match between Liverpool and Everton is a Merseyside Derby match and of course, because it is a derby match it is clear that Liverpool will not underestimate Everton. Although indeed, these two teams have a big difference in quality. But, considering this is a derby match then I am sure this match will still be interesting because both teams will make great efforts to get a good result in this Merseyside Derby match. But yes, even if for example Everton is able to play well in this match but still, I am sure that the victory on paper for Liverpool will certainly be a reality.

And you shouldn’t hope that something will change and the team will start winning, it’s difficult in this situation, it seems to me that he doesn’t know what to do next.

Meguire was just getting less chance to play regularly in the main squad. That's quite unfair to compere him to the onana which is playing regularly. I think that if this is non comparable. Onana was a goal keeper while meguire was back. Ten hag is failed this season. The worst transfer was mason mount from chelsea. We are rarely hearing his name since there are many problems have occured in the club. Ten hag needs to get new ammunitions to solve the problems owned by united at this moment.
It's likely that ten hag has been preparing something to be published soon. I hope that ten hag will come with something new. Selling some defenders are a must for him.

Everton isn't a real opponent for Liverpool and this match will be a soft one for them. Everton hardly win or get a draw and they receive goals easily. Liverpool should with this game improve their position
Best game this round is between Chelsea playing home vs Arsenal then comes Manchester City which will face Brighton. These two games

[Roseline492]

Liverpool vs Everton will take place in Round 9, as Liverpool are currently in a good position they will try well to win.

Yes of course is a wining match for Liverpool because normally we can never compare Liverpool performance with Everton, because even right from last season Liverpool has really been in a good form.

And even on the table they are on the Fourth position while Everton on the sixteen position, however the last 8 matches of Liverpool they have won six matches, draw one and lose one which is a great performance by them.

And also considering the fourth position Liverpool is, they will never allow any club to win them easily because there targets is to become the first on the table, so there is a chance that based on there performance they would go very far on this season.

Even though the performance conditions of the two teams are very different at the moment, but I am sure Arsenal will not easily secure full points when they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. No one doubts Arsenal's abilities so far because they are still quite consistent until the eighth week. But I predict the match will end in a draw, the reason is because Chelsea has shown good results in the last three matches and the match will also take place at Stamford bridge.

It is still too early to say that Pochettino has failed to make Chelsea more competitive in the EPL because they still have quite a lot of matches to play. Usually the teams currently in the top 10 will lose consistency in the second half of the season and only a few strong teams will survive. So there is still a chance for Pochettino to show team improvement and they will still be chasing the top five this season.

From any point of view Liverpool are a better club than their opponents this time, Everton. Now it would be a pity if they had to drop points in a match where they were crowned big favorites. 2 previous matches, they had to lose full points and only won 1 point. this match is an opportunity for them to get back 3 full points with an opponent that can be said to be quite easy.
But don't let them underestimate Everton either, because that might make them lose in the end. They must play as well as possible in this match.

[borovichok]

Liverpool vs Everton will take place in Round 9, as Liverpool are currently in a good position they will try well to win.

Liverpool versus Everton, is it a game to discuss about? Absolutely a big YES because the Reds keeps dropping points in irrelevant games. When it comes to structure, they're balance, confident enough to win games but they're reluctant and don't possess the necessary qualities in the team. Jurgen Klopp will actually work on his squad this season, is appropriate time to buckle up and employed winning strategies for important games this season. There's no room to underestimate team this season, because average clubs tends to compete with elite ones.

[shogun47]

I think that fans can expect their goalkeepers to not make many of these absolutely unnecessary mistakes that destroy the whole game. When a player plays seven years for Ajax Amsterdam, then plays for one year for Inter Milan and then gets signed by one of his former coaches, I think that Ten Hag knew what he was doing and he took the risk to get rid of De Gea and if I recall this correctly he also didn't treat De Gea very well. Now they have to work with what they have as really good goalkeepers are quite rare. Onana has already had a few mistakes that were not really unacceptable, but maybe it is the time he needs to adapt although I am not really a big fan of blaming his lack in experience. He has been playin on a top level for quite some time and he isn't 18 years old anymore, but 27.

The arrival of Onana came with alot of expectations cause as Erik Ten Hag succeded in kicking David Degea our of the team alot of fans expected a very better and talented player that's young and would serve the team for a long term but however Erik Ten Hag decided to bring in one of his former goalie he trust and since then he's made alot of errors thats cost the team to lose matches.

 Well if Onana want to maintain his role at Manchester United then he should train daily and try his best to save his team some embarrassement this season, and at 27 it would be very bad to be performing very bad for a team like Manchester, well the coach believes in him but I feel sooner  or later if Onana fails to improve he'll be replaced with the 2nd choice keeper from Turkey.

Training hard on a daily basis is what a goalkeeper can do and maybe have some mental training as well. I remember when ter Stegen went to Barcelona, he also had some critical moments when his gameplay wasn't looking all that safe. But over time he improved and had lots of opportunities to prove his goalkeeping quality and he conquered the number one position at Barcelona eventually.

I think it is too early to talk about Onana's mistakes only and how they cost Manchester United points and games. I think there are also more players than just Onana playing far below their maximum potential. I really can't think of a player than Ten Hag made better. Although this is his job.

[Iroh]

Because Chelsea's advantage only lies in playing at home, this will still make it difficult for Chelsea to win because their opponents are much better than them in strength. Arsenal is very determined to win the match at Chelsea's home because Arsenal is very close to the top of the standings so Arsenal's enthusiasm will probably be very passionate at Chelsea's home because Arsenal really wants to win with a lot of scores in this match.

I personally don’t think playing at home is that much of an advantage. It alone certainly won’t help win the game for the club. Playing at home may have some certain perks but when going up against a much tougher opponent, those perks may not make any impact.
In this case, Arsenal is in a much better form than Chelsea and despite Chelsea playing at home, I don’t really see how that could give them an edge over their opponents who presently, are seemingly better.
The possibility, no matter how slim it may seem, of Chelsea having a win also cannot be ruled out but I just don’t think they’ve presently got what it takes to win Arsenal.

Harry Maguire had a great night at one point, making it difficult for opposition strikers to sneak past his eyes but has proved a poor defender over the last two seasons. In all the matches he has played in the last two seasons, he has not been able to defend well, he has not created good chances, he has not been able to give good tackles, meaning he has failed everywhere. A defender's job is not only to control the ball but also to block opposition strikers as well as to allow midfielders or strikers to score goals. Harry Maguire was the captain of Manchester United but was dropped as captain due to his poor performances and is now an irregular player for Manchester United.
