Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[SeriouslyGiveaway]

Because the depth of Chelsea's squad is actually not that good. When compared with the squad depth of other top teams in the Premier League. Chelsea do spend a lot of money but I still feel that they are not very effective in spending that money.

When Pochettino arrived, he spent a considerable amount of money on players who didn't seem to fit well with the style of play he aimed to establish. It felt like a patchwork approach, and I couldn't help but notice how veteran Thiago Silva outperformed some of the newcomers. Now, the news is they're planning to spend another 80-100 million pounds on acquiring Gavi, a move I'm not particularly excited about.

This is going to be an interesting one to watch. Because Arsenal is definitely one of the best teams in the English Premier League if not the best team. So it will be really hard for New Castle United to successfully beat them. But at the same time, New Castle United has not been bad themselves as well. They have not been able to win some matches that they probably should have. But they also do not have any losses in the last 5. It should be a close game but I still think arsenal should be the winner of this match.

Newcastle isn't a pushover for Arsenal, even though Arsenal has shown good form recently. Additionally, it's crucial to consider that both Gabriel Jesus and Thomas Partey will be absent. As for Newcastle, they are set to face Manchester United in the Carabao Cup. This might require more effort on their part than Arsenal facing West Ham.

One serious problem is that sacking one coach logically means you need to sign a new coach, but then thinking about this, who could that new coach be? It won't help Manchester United if they sack ten Hag and start some experiment with some unknown or unexperienced new coach. This is so far the only reason I can understand why clubs are careful with sacking their coaches. The market isn't that great. To be honest, if I had to come up with one name of a good coach who is available, I wouldn't know anyone. It would inevitably end in an experiment and that is not what Manchester United needs right now.

@shogun47 while I agree with your points but the sack is coming for him soon because no manager in their right mind benches Varane, starts Maguire and Evans against City. Furthermore all I can see is him create a squad of his favourites and waste the clubs money on player’s he knew and forget attacking football at time’s I’m wondering does he even know the basics of football and for these reasons I won’t be surprised if he gets the sack in coming months.

Agree, and the problems in the locker room have already started between the players and the coach. It was said that there were hefty discussions in the locker room before the game against Manchester City when the United players found out about ten Hag's plan for the game. Some of them are said to have criticized his strategy. I think those are the first signs when the team is finally falling apart and that is also the time when a coach can't take any more losses without taking the consequences. Losing the players in the locker room has never led to good results in the aftermath.

We've seen the mess that Todd Boehly and the former Chelsea coach helped create. If you want to clean it up or turn it into something cohesive, you have to… slowly. Chelsea is the team that has spent the most money in recent transfer periods, but the results on the field are not commensurate with the investment. Currently, although Chelsea is poor, coach Pochettino's position is temporarily guaranteed. We need to give him time to find a way to lead the team to victory. It can be said that Chelsea is making significant changes this summer and needs time to stabilize. We should wait and see.

Based on what Chelsea players are displaying in this season, show that they will get it right some days because there are many things this current coach has changed in Chelsea that is making me to like their boldness to play with strongest teams and made them to feel the changes in them. I believe, Chelsea president will not regret for the huge amount of money he used to signed in all those potential players but there are some hope that the young talented players will definitely showcase some good performance that will make them to come close to 3rd or 4th position. Chelsea will improve in this summer, but it will be difficult for them to achieve anything in this summer because Manchester city and Tottenham Hotspur will not allow them to come close to second and first position till the end of the tournament.

Could it be that the process is getting longer as we wait for time? I think Chelsea has been given a lot of time as they are a team full of new players. There is no explanation for why they lost 2-0 to Brentford at home. Pochettino came to the team in the role of savior, but he could not become the savior either.

[bering]

Chelsea and Manchester United are having equal chances of entering the European zone, they are both performing poorly, and from the matches they have both played lately, I don’t see any difference between them. But I can say Chelsea performance is improving, even as they lose their last match. Pochettino is still trying to work on Chelsea, he should be given time. Before the season ends, he will have discovered the appropriate squad that he will be using. I am sure Chelsea won’t be going to the relegation zone, their performances haven’t really gotten worse to that extent. As we can see, Pochettino is just trying to rebuild Chelsea. I am sure that with time, Chelsea's performance is going to improve. I just hope it’s going to be soon.

I know there are 28 matches remaining before the league ended but i am quite pesimistic Chelsea and Manchester United will be able to entering European zone especially Manchester United have already lose 5 times and Chelsea also still hard struggle to entering top 10 and for Chelsea their performance were very unpredictable and it's hard to predict their matches results because for each matches Chelsea performance was very unstable
Some people doubt Chelsea and Manchester United will finish at top 5 even so with me besides they still unable to find their consistency other teams such as Liverpool, Aston Villa, Newcastle and Liverpool had same target just like them and the performance of these teams is much better than them

It should be a close game but I still think arsenal should be the winner of this match.

This match is quite important for both teams so they will attack each other as well as possible to be able to take the lead and win the match.
There will be match with almost equal competition because Newcastle has the home game advantage.
Looking at the statistics of this match it is likely that it will only end in a draw either 1 - 1 or 2 - 2, which clearly means they will have difficulty finding the winner.

For those who see the performance of each team, Arsenal will definitely be favorite but for me this is match that is difficult to predict.

The only safe path is a draw or goal for both team.

[ancafe]

At a time, Ten Hag doesn't talk or signal a tactical play to his team, instead, he just relaxes on the side lines and hope for the players to do their best.
Manchester city don't seem relentless in this regard as Pep Guardiola doesn't rest an inch even with as much as a 2 goal lead because he knows and trusts the calibre of players in his squad to do the needful.

It would be difficult for Newcastle to win Arsenal in their oncoming fixture because both teams are in the champions league and Arsenal has got more talent and organization to topple them.

That is his coaching style and when he was still coach Ajak also did the same thing as this. Erik Ten Hak pushed too hard on several players who were not placed in their actual positions and the weakness of the midfield was that it was unable to control the flow of the match and just look at the previous few matches how the midfield played. Manchester City have quality players in all positions and even placing three defenders is enough for them to withstand attacks from Manchester United.

Arsenal's match against Newcastle is quite difficult to predict and Arsenal are much more favorites because so far they have not been defeated in the Premier League. Arteta needs to be careful because they will visit Newcastle's headquarters so it will not be easy for them to get full points because Newcastle also does not want to accept defeat at home.

They still have time but they could not play well in their first 10 matches and no guarantee that they will play better in rest 28 matches in Premier League. This season sees a growth of Tottenham Hotspur while Arsenal and Newcastle United still maintain their good performances. If Manchester United and Chelsea won't improve themselves soon, they will fall too deep on the table and it's hard for them to enter Top four months later.

We should not forget Liverpool are coming back to not only top area of Premier League but also are actually fighting for the league title. So let me count some clubs that are playing well and competitors for top four: Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Newcastle United. There are five clubs already and if we count Manchester United and Chelsea, there will be at least seven clubs in this race, just only to top four.

Arteta needs to be careful because they will visit Newcastle's headquarters so it will not be easy for them to get full points because Newcastle also does not want to accept defeat at home.

Of course, in as much as Newcastle United are in a good form this season they are no match to arsenal because Arsenal has been performing really well and still maintain the unbeaten records, but however considering the position were Newcastle United is on the premier League table they will try every possible best not to accept defeat from arsenal.

But however considering based on performance there is every chance that arsenal will win the match against Newcastle United, perhaps all thanks to Arteta who was thought very well by Pep Quardiola when he was his assistant on Manchester City, so he has been the ingredient behind the success of arsenal today although his coaching patterns reminds me of Arsene Wenger during his time on coaching arsenal even though he has his own lapsis but he was one of the best arsenal coach do to his excellent pattern of coaching he won 17 trophies for arsenal.

So i believe that with Arteta excellent coaching skills he will make arsenal even more better in performance than before, so if arsenal will use the force they did on Manchester City match they will surely win Newcastle United.

It depends on how they deliver their current performance. Chelsea and Manchester United must realize that to achieve a decent position in the Europa League or Champions League they have to try more especially since some of the regular clubs as well as some dark horse clubs are now really playing very well so far.
Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City are something that is very difficult to eliminate. besides that we also know the names Brighton and Newcastle are essences that cannot be underestimated and now add Aston Villa who really became a very different club after Emery came to Villa Park.
If in the end Manchester United and Chelsea want to do something more and be in a better zone then indeed their conditions need to be improved because with their current performance, even though there are still many games left in this season I don't think it will have much effect.

Manchester City have quality players in all positions and even placing three defenders is enough for them to withstand attacks from Manchester United.

- Ten Hag seems to be struggling to replicate the style he used during his time with Ajax, even after trying to bring in players favored by Ajax. The Manchester United squad appears to lack a genuine defensive midfielder. Casemiro performed well in his initial season, but rather than seeking a specialized defensive midfielder, Ten Hag brought in Mount, an attacking midfielder with similarities to Bruno Fernandes. However, he seems to be grappling with how to utilize Mount effectively.
- A clear illustration of this issue was seen when he replaced Amrabat with Mount in the match against Manchester City, leaving the middle of the Manchester United midfield looking unoccupied. Furthermore, despite Manchester United having an abundance of attacking options, there seems to be a deficit in the defensive midfield role, leaving them exposed to opposing teams, especially those with quality players in all positions, like Manchester City.

Arsenal's match against Newcastle is quite difficult to predict and Arsenal are much more favorites because so far they have not been defeated in the Premier League. Arteta needs to be careful because they will visit Newcastle's headquarters so it will not be easy for them to get full points because Newcastle also does not want to accept defeat at home.

If Newcastle can secure a victory against Manchester United tomorrow in the Carabao Cup, it will certainly boost the home team's morale at St James' Park before their match against Arsenal.

I also have the same doubts about this. Because the teams that fill the top 5 positions currently look more convincing. I don't know how but I feel the top 5 teams will now be able to maintain their position for much longer.

The season is still long. But Man United and Chelsea currently do not appear to have experienced any significant changes. Maybe Chelsea will improve a little. But that's only when facing ordinary teams. Holding Arsenal to a draw is indeed a good sign for Chelsea. But I still have doubts if I have to hope that Chelsea will enter the top 5. A ranking of 6 to 10 is possible. But being in 5th place is still something I can't imagine given their current performance.

But for Man United it might still happen. Because their current position is much closer than Chelsea. But if Man United doesn't immediately improve their performance. So I wouldn't be surprised if Chelsea actually overtakes them in the standings in the next few weeks.

Regardless of the previous games played by Manchester United. I feel they have higher chances in going to Europa league than Chelsea. My reason is because when it comes to scoring goals. Manchester United score more goals than Chelsea and they have better strikers to do the job. And these goals are what giving a bigger opportunity to secure the three points. Almost all Chelsea matches apart form a few. Chelsea do struggle to score a goal. What am saying in essence is that at any point in time. Manchester can move up in the league table, they just need more tactical analysis that will make them score more goals and go up in the premier league table. The chances of Chelsea are low. Remember the few clubs Chelsea has played with so far are smaller clubs apart from Arsenal, when they get to meet other teams like Brighton, Newcastle even they could not win Brentford.

.
I don't know, but I rarely see big teams playing seriously for Carabao. However, Newcastle actually has a greater chance of winning than Man United. Yes, everyone knows that Man United's condition is currently very bad. In fact, I'm sure Newcastle's style of play will be more varied than Man United when the match starts.

Honestly, I can't enjoy the current style of play. Even the 3 Man United midfielders seem to want to have the number 10 shirt because they focus on the attack line and cannot effectively carry the ball from the defenders to the strikers. Bruno Fernandes is very obsessed with goals and forgets about defense. The new squad that Ten Hag brought in was still completely out of control by playing a long ball style like an underdog team.

I still see a win for Newcastle in this match.

[armanda90]

Chelsea holding top two teams Liverpool and Arsenal but inconsistent when facing small or mediocre teams after losing from Brentford last match, current this season still too long and Chelsea have 28 matches left with potential many coins achievement but they will face many top teams next matches. If not change significant with current composition I doubt Chelsea will finish on higher standings position this season and looks Manchester United have poor performed this season like Chelsea.
Man United have three points behind Chelsea but they have left many points with Tottenham Hotspur on top position, due have important matches in Champion League there are not difference position between Chelsea and Manchester United will absent for participating in European competition next season as Champion League or Europe League.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but to me Chelsea and Manchester united form now is nothing to write home about as the both teams are inconsistent, matches that they can easily win they will either draw or lose the match you now begin to think how their performance will be when they start meeting most of the teams that are currently in form now.

[Rockstarguy]

We've seen the mess that Todd Boehly and the former Chelsea coach helped create. If you want to clean it up or turn it into something cohesive, you have to… slowly. Chelsea is the team that has spent the most money in recent transfer periods, but the results on the field are not commensurate with the investment. Currently, although Chelsea is poor, coach Pochettino's position is temporarily guaranteed. We need to give him time to find a way to lead the team to victory. It can be said that Chelsea is making significant changes this summer and needs time to stabilize. We should wait and see.

Yeah that's right, Chelsea have done their best by recruiting some expensive players and replaced several coaches but the results did not match expectations so I agree Chelsea just need time to adjust everything and find the strategy and rhythm of the game. We know Pochettino has ability but currently he cannot implement the strategy well for several reasons basically he still has time until the end of the season.

I still have the believe that Chelsea will be better this season,  the few games they have played in this season is better than the result of their games in last season.  Chelsea has more confidence in their games now , I know with time they will become a better squad. I don't want to use the last performance of chelsea game to conclude how their coming game will look like. Pochettino needs to try the best he can to make sure his boys put more efforts in their game , he has more role to play to transform the team to gain better results in their games, that is why if things keeps bad for Chelsea he will be held accountable.

[Xcode7]

They still have time but they could not play well in their first 10 matches and no guarantee that they will play better in rest 28 matches in Premier League. This season sees a growth of Tottenham Hotspur while Arsenal and Newcastle United still maintain their good performances. If Manchester United and Chelsea won't improve themselves soon, they will fall too deep on the table and it's hard for them to enter Top four months later.

I don't think that the Manchester United and Chelsea teams can climb to the top 4 of the Premier League standings this season, at the start of the season it was clear that their performance was quite bad and inconsistent, there is a possibility that they can recover but I don't think that will happen. significant, especially since the top teams in the Premier League standings currently have very strong and consistent strength.
Manchester United and Chelsea just need to improve so that they don't fall too deep and make better progress for their teams in the future.

We should not forget Liverpool are coming back to not only top area of Premier League but also are actually fighting for the league title. So let me count some clubs that are playing well and competitors for top four: Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Newcastle United. There are five clubs already and if we count Manchester United and Chelsea, there will be at least seven clubs in this race, just only to top four.

I have eliminated Manchester United and Chelsea in my calculations, Tottenham, Man City, Arsenal are strong teams while Liverpool are also in good condition after they managed to recover and improve from their downturn last season.
I think Liverpool are back and they will compete fiercely in the race for the title this season.

[rendravolt]

Mikel Arteta commented on the injury suffered by Gabriel Jesus and said that he did not have a definite time until Gabriel Jesus would be able to return to the field and he felt guilty because this happened again. I think Arsenal currently really needs the figure of Gabriel Jesus to continue to dominate the top flight and also secure every victory with certainty. Moreover, in the next match they have to face Newcastle and of course their attack line will not be as sharp as before. But I am quite hopeful that with the increase in performance experienced by Eddie Nketiah after scoring a hat trick last week, he will again be the focus of the team so that victory is no longer in doubt for Arsenal.

I still see a win for Newcastle in this match.

I also think so, even Newcastle not win, at least the match end in draw. Manchester United will play with a same player until the end of this month, since there's no change in the squad, it's also resulting no change in results.

Although Newcastle is missing of their three good players e.g. Isak, Tonali and Botman, but they still have few other players that play not too bad than them.
