Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Some football observers might say the same thing or even have a different assessment of how we see a goalkeeper in this modern era of football. Yes, we can't force our views to be the same as others, especialy since this is just an assessment from different perspectives but with the same goal in my opinion.
Yes I also said it requires support from other plyers, especially with players who have close proximity to them, yes in this case we will certainly talk about defensive players. We can't just look at one player, we have to look at all the players who move to create a good pass.

Modern goalkeepers will still need to have excellent saving skills because clubs need saving skills most from a goalkeeper. It's hard to find goalkeepers like Ederson (Manchester City) or Becker (Liverpool) who can make key passes for attacking players. Requiring and letting goalkeepers use their legs too much will create more chances for mistakes. Manuel Neur is a pioneer for modern goalkeeper but if we notice, he made some terrible mistakes because he was over confident and overused his legs.

Making a good save is not different than scoring a goal for a team and goalkeeper rather than trying to make too many passes, can contribute to the club by making as many saves as possible to block opponent attacks and shots.

I would say that there is a good amount of doing that, but if you do it way too much then you become like Neuer, if you do not do it at all then you are not going to be good at all. Most goalkeepers even today do not look for passing skills, they tend to be focusing way too much on just the saving bit of the goalkeeper but that is no longer enough, much more is expected of the goalkeeper but that is for the higher level of teams.

No team that is going for relegation requires a goalkeeper that is good at passing, they are already playing from behind and almost all the time trying not to get scored on too much and most their players are at defense, so goalkeeper doesn't require that. When you think about it, this will be different situation.

Have you heard that the Blues are going to submit a transfer request for the Brentford goalscorer?
Chelsea want Ivon Tawney in their squad, and they also see an alternative to Osimhem.
What do you think about it?
I think such a transfer will benefit Chelsea!

[swogerino]

Eddie Howe is missing 13 players, some of whom are injured and some of whom are suspended, so I think it's very reasonable that Chesela will take advantage of their weaknesses to secure full points. You could say Newcastle was just lucky because they played in front of their own supporters, otherwise their situation was very complicated.

Knowing all this, Mauricio Pochettino will not miss the chance to earn a couple more points for the team. Most likely, Chelsea will press with attacks. Such a chance does not come along often without taking advantage of it.

Newcastle recently is on a very bad bad form having lost 3 consecutive matches in all tournaments but I think this International break has been of some sort of benefit for them as they have had enough time to fix things even with missing players.The fact that they play in front of their fans is another fact which play in advantage of Newcastle where their best performances have usually happened in this field.

Chelsea is on a great run their own but I think this will be a very difficult game for both teams and I don't know about any result,any result is acceptable in such games.

[Leviathan.007]

I was quite surprised because Everton were also considered guilty of financial matters. They seem to be about to get a 10-point deduction. Even Leeds and Leicester City, who were relegated last year, are demanding compensation. They have a one-month gap with the case. Besides, this point deduction will make Everton relegated?
I think this only happens to Man City and Chelsea who are in the process of being investigated. But it turns out that there are clubs that have already been punished and this looks like it will extend beyond Chelsea and Man City.

was surprised when I saw the news about Everton too because 10 points is a lot and for any team, it's not easy to get this huge amount of points to save themselves from getting relegated during this season and that's why Everton is not in the good situation at all.
However, the fans of Everton are trying to make a change and so far the fans donated 33 thousand pounds to Everton.

[Chilwell]

How you start the season is important, but how you continue is more important. This is the biggest problem small teams, they start very well but cannot continue consistently. Brighton have not been able to win points for weeks, I think they will continue like this. Actually, there is no significant point difference between them and their rivals, but the gap seems to be widening.
I hope they win the next match and the team starts to recover

I fill so disappointed with the way they are going right now and must annoying part is they haven't even reach the middle of the season and have started show their wickness, while other are battling on how to bounce back, even Sheffield United of all people that other add 3 points to their points even before starting the game and during Brighton they even assisted the Sheffield United to score and the funny part is even in Brighton home, home where even the wick are very hard to break.

Nottingham Forest  are hosting Brighton this weekend, I don't think it will be funny for Brighton because if we are to look into their last match I will say Nottingham Forest performance is more powerful than Brighton performance due to their opponents, for Nottingham Forest to end match with West Ham with 3-2 in West Ham home definitely they are uncompare with Brighton but still anything can happen, I still have hope for Nottingham Forest than Brighton.

Eddie Howe is missing 13 players, some of whom are injured and some of whom are suspended, so I think it's very reasonable that Chesela will take advantage of their weaknesses to secure full points. You could say Newcastle was just lucky because they played in front of their own supporters, otherwise their situation was very complicated.

Newcastle supporters knows everything about the present condition of the club, they're also taking things easy and everything will retest back to smooth path. 13 players are absent in the team, bad news and a tremendous information for the club. Eddie Howe struggles more than he has ever been this season, watching his key players injured is definitely one of the most unfortunate events for the club. Another three points to be bagged for Chelsea. Winning deformed Newcastle will be easy performance for the Blues except the Magpies struggles for a draw point with defensive strategy.

[Amphenomenon]

Things like this are still possible but if this speculation continues to grow then indeed I think it doesn't really matter because last season Ten Hag was also initially considered a failure especially when he had problems with Ronaldo and Greenwood's problems at that time worsened the atmosphere of the attacking line from Manchester United but in the end he was still able to bring Manchester United to the Champions League zone and now the situation is not much different so indeed the management of Manchester United will definitely make the same gamble by continuing to entrust Manchester United to Ten Hag so that he continues to prove himself.
Even though things like this are sometimes not too liked even by Manchester United fans themselves but when the club management has made a decision then they only have to see how Ten Hag performs until the end of this season.

Ten Hag will continue the season till the end but there is no hope for Trophy this season for them even if they are sent to Europa league but they are likely gonna finish well in the Epl table just like previous seasons but more likely Ten Hag might be fired the coming season especially if he has another argument with another player because last time was Cr7, this season Sancho next season  
All the players he has signed are under performing or inconsistent and I don't really think he he is love by the players or maybe there is no love among the players.

Whether there is a trophy or not at the moment is not the initial goal because I still think that the initial goal at the moment is to regain performance and confidence in order to continue to be and coach very comfortably because the problem of trophies for United is very difficult for them to get after the SAF era ended and from a decade from SAF's retirement to the present it has been very difficult for Manchester United to get their trophies.
But trust for Ten Hag will also be a reasonable thing because in the first season he gave the trophy even though it was not too prestigious because it was only the Carabaou Cup that they got but at least it could be a consolation that gave a little something different so naturally he was still trusted to train because in the end if there was a change of coach the trophy was not necessarily Manchester United could get.

I don't think there is a way he will be able to do that this season, for Manchester United to throwaway a 2 - 0 lead against Copenhagen and later end the game losing shows how far they have fallen, a big team should have been able  to hold up even if their player is sent off. In a nutshell Manchester United players even before the arrival of Ten Hag lacks confidence and their performance has not been consistent and even in these flaws they won the carabao Cup last season, which shows winning a trophy is actually easier than fixing their root problems, but winning a trophy  is among what is needed to build team performance and confidence

[Ryu_Ar1]

It is very likely that Chelsea will secure full points in the match against Newcastle, even though Pochettino squad will act as the visiting team. I think it's very reasonable, because the Blues have experienced an improvement in performance by successfully beating Tottenham and forcing Man City to share points in the previous match. Actually, Eddie Howe's squad also has a chance to make a surprise, but currently many Newcastle players are injured.

Eddie Howe is missing 13 players, some of whom are injured and some of whom are suspended, so I think it's very reasonable that Chesela will take advantage of their weaknesses to secure full points. You could say Newcastle was just lucky because they played in front of their own supporters, otherwise their situation was very complicated.

Even though in the previous 2 matches they did very well but facing Newcastle I don't think it will be easy because I still feel that it depends on Newcastle also providing resistance to Chelsea because usually with a fast tempo and high tension, Chelsea is always able to progress rapidly in 90 minutes of the match even there will be some surprises if the tempo is like this but when the tempo slows down and Newcastle can manage the rhythm well obviously this can be troublesome for Chelsea.
At the moment they (Chelsea) will be the favourites with quite good results in the previous 2 matches and with Newcastle's situation limping because some players, especially the striker, are injured, it is difficult for Newcastle to dismantle Chelsea's defence but I still feel that this match will be a draw.

Chelsea is another team who loves paying huge amount of money on players who cannot perform well.I'm not saying that Toney cannot do well at Chelsea,but he has been out for so long now,and despite the reports linking him to different clubs,I think if he moves to Chelsea,it will definitely be a bad deal to make.Toney is a very good player who doesn't need any adaptation to be able to be able to get the goals needed,he can deliver at any level,he is a proven goal scorer at Brentford,and he will do well at any of the big teams,but it shouldn't be Chelsea because they are good at turning players into flopps.Lukaku was a good player when he left Milan,but he came to Chelsea,and wasn't able to do anything.

[laurenB7742]

It seems that the players recruited by Erik Ten Hag have not been able to contribute well to Manchester United so far and it seems that their new players and old players have experienced a decline in their performance so far. Hojlund, who is plotted as a striker, has not been able to provide a better performance this season by assisting and goal contributions in every match and he seems to need time to show his sharpness in scoring goals. I think the recruitment carried out by Erik Ten Hag is not too bad, but the new players need time to adapt to Erik Ten Hag game scheme.

Apart from that, I see that Manchester United have achieved 7 wins so far and they have to remain consistent to get into the top 4 before the first half of this season ends. Everton is the next opponent faced by Manchester United and looking at the quality of both teams, perhaps Manchester United will not have any difficulty beating Everton.

Hojlund is a well-intentioned player, but I don't think he is enough as a centre forward to take Manchester United to the next level. His stats in the Champions League may be good, but I think he is very inadequate in terms of his game, which we see in the Premier League. He was not good in the last game either. There are some moments when the team is not doing well, but the striker scores a goal and wins the match or becomes the fuse that ignites the team, although this boy has that energy, he is insufficient because of his technique. Maybe in the future he will improve his game and become better, but for now he is not a key player for ManU in my opinion. By the way, I have to say that Rashford's horrible form is getting annoying.

Manchester united should not rely on only one player alone for the success in this season and just like a tree can not make a forest,  there is a need for Manchester United to make sure they make adequate preparation for the after break and the last chance of transfers by January or February,  this is very important for the club,  unless their want to end the current season like how the ended the last season which is not good for the club.

Much more also,  we have to look further on what we tend to achieve in all of that,  which is similar to what other clubs want to achieve also and for that,  there will be a lot confrontationsnfornthem and in that way their tend to lose focus if Manchester United isn't sensitive enough to hold their positions.

Manchester United should be able to win against Everton. Because Everton is in the relegation zone right now. Compared to them Manchester United is doing far better, to be honest. But one thing I will say Manchester United could do is that they could bring in a few draws. That definitely would have made the situation of Manchester United a lot better. But not having a single point from five matches is definitely hurting them. And that's what made them more inconsistent, to be honest. I also think they could have easily avoided a few losses and gotten one point from those matches.

Chelsea have played a good match against and Manchester city which they managed to hold to a draw, they also played a good match against Tottenham with they won possibly because Tottenham played with 9 men due to the getting two red cards, Chelsea also played a good game against Arsenal which they almost won, but Arsenal was lucky enough to make sure the match ended in a draw, last small club they (Chelsea) played against which they lost was Brentford.

And here again, they will be playing against another supposed small club, and like you have said, Chelsea will be favorite of this match due to the outcome of their previous games, but if in the end, Newcastle wins, can we say that they tend to play well against top clubs?

This is one question on my mind I think the outcome of their coming game would give me answers to.

Anyways, looking forward to the games once again.

I think such a transfer will benefit Chelsea!

I haven't seen such a new though, I read some two months ago and I knew it was speculations and also Ivan Toney was banned and now getting close to the conclusion of his banned, he has been training daily and playing behind the scene games for Brentford to keep in shape for a possible exit from the bee's.

They have Nicholas Jackson, but I'll say he should be given enough time to blend in well. Chelsea needs Victor Oshime, anyone other than Victor Oshime for Chelsea is a perfect rumour.
Ivan would be great idea no doubts but he Chelsea right now have strikers they can work with.

I also think they could have easily avoided a few losses and gotten one point from those matches.

The champions league is not something I can talk about to have the hope that Man United will be able to have a good performance in, because if you look at their current stand, the group is still open for any of the three clubs to qualify to the round of 16. I will only focus on EPL where even though they win or lose they are still on the league. It is better than Eric Hag does something to bring in a new player when the transfer window will be opened so that Man United can have hope to be among the top three on the table, because I don't think that any magic can be done for them to win the trophy with their present performance.

Maybe in the future he will improve his game and become better, but for now he is not a key player for ManU in my opinion. By the way, I have to say that Rashford's horrible form is getting annoying.

That's why, Ten Hag prefers him over other players. even though, at that time Juve wanted to release their center forward, Vlahovic. Apart from that, there are several players that Ten Hag is targeting according to the budget they have. In the interview session between Ten Hag and Hojlund, Ten Hag had a personal assessment of this player. Of course he can't be relied on at the moment, after all he's not a pure, ready-to-use sticker like Kane.
Ideally, Ten Hag wants good progress from the players he brought in from Atalanta. Unfortunately, he has not been able to maximize his performance in the Premier League in his nine matches. However, he performed well in the Champions League by scoring five goals in four matches. I mean, there is something wrong with the United squad as a whole. This is not just a problem for Hojlund alone, but for the entire team. that's why he had difficulty scoring his first goal in the Premier League. So, that's why we are waiting after all United players have recovered from their injuries, especially the core players.

For now, we give him the opportunity to learn a lot and achieve a strong bond between the players. because from my point of view, United players don't have a strong bond, especially new players who tend to be ignored. on the other hand, some players are not disciplined and want to appear and show their respective prowess. Ten Hag must fix this problem in the future. also, for Marcus Rashford. We'll see, United still have a lot of games to play. especially, if in the end they resign from the Champions League and don't have tickets to the European League. automatically, their focus is only on this competition.

After all the bad news they had in Manchester United, that's very good to see Marcus Rashford is backed and he doesn't have any serious problems, so is going to help the team in the next games.
In the game between England and Malta, he got injured and Manchester United was very worried because of this player and now he is back in the team training which means this player is still in the good form.

[BIT-BENDER]

I think Manchester united should remove their focus from the UEFA champions league because I think there is no chance for them any more in it, they should probably focus on going to the Europa league and probably they would do very well because the competition is lesser.
The real focus for Manchester united should be the English premier league I think they should try to get into the top four but right now it's looking impossible, the best step in my opinion for them is to sack their present coach ten Hag .

[Chilwell]

I was quite surprised because Everton were also considered guilty of financial matters. They seem to be about to get a 10-point deduction. Even Leeds and Leicester City, who were relegated last year, are demanding compensation. They have a one-month gap with the case. Besides, this point deduction will make Everton relegated?

I felt sad any time I look at the table and see them at number 19, Sean Dyche really need to motivate the players to never give up although is not going to be easy for them because their next four matches is not going to be easy Manchester United are in a bad performance but it will be a little difficult for Everton to win the game despite they are the one hosting the game, follow by Nottingham Forest which the two teams have no record on each other, they only had to matches and ended in draw, Nottingham Forest is a little bit more confidence than Everton due to their punishment and again the result of them against Manchester United will decide how their and Nottingham Forest will be like, than Newcastle and Chelsea.

Indeed, basically Manchester United do not have a good chance at this moment in the Champion League and thus, Manchester United should have a target to be able to enter and or successfully finish in the top four again this season. But ya, if for example Manchester United fail to finish in the top four this season, but if Manchester United can finish in fifth position I think it's not bad either. Because after all, the Premier League competition is becoming very difficult at this moment, and only teams that have stable performance can succeed in finishing in the top four. Therefore, this season will be a difficult season for Manchester United to be able to finish in a better position.

[poodle63]

Newcastle Chelsea is another match that's yet to receive more attention in recent discussion, I see that game as another interesting one that will be happening this weekend bin Europe, aside Manchester city and Liverpool which has been most discussed and speculated since this week.

I think that many eyes will be putting more attention to the city vs liverpool. In fact, newcastle will not be able to play with its main squad due to the injury. It makes chelsea has better probability to win the game compared with newcastle.
That depends with the performance from chelsea as well. Yeah mate, we will have so many great matches in this week. No doubt that if people are starting to think which club that shall be picked as their favorites to win the game.
I may watch the match between city vs liverpool.

The blues have recently been showing some strength as seen in their most recent games starting with their win against Tottenham, that was when their morale and confidence took a new shape and ever since the story hasn't been the same as they keep showing strength back to back with any team they have met after then, although Newcastle isn't a weak team but I sense they will find it difficult considering how well the blues did faced Manchester city last week and held them to an epic draw.

Getting draw against manchester city has been opening our eyes if chelsea can't be underrated club again at this moment. The blues has been regaining its best performance again.
The result against city might be disappointed for us but it has showed up if chelsea has made some significant improvements.

I hope that the blues will able to gather three points.

[Furious 7]

Eddie Howe is missing 13 players, some of whom are injured and some of whom are suspended, so I think it's very reasonable that Chesela will take advantage of their weaknesses to secure full points. You could say Newcastle was just lucky because they played in front of their own supporters, otherwise their situation was very complicated.

Knowing all this, Mauricio Pochettino will not miss the chance to earn a couple more points for the team. Most likely, Chelsea will press with attacks. Such a chance does not come along often without taking advantage of it.

But usually when Chelsea try to press from the start and the opposing club plays more passively, this backfires on them and I think it would be better for them to do the same rhythm as in the previous 2 matches where they tried to see the suitable situation and the scheme that Newcastle did after that they tried with the scheme they did.
Currently, Chelsea's situation although still very good but still uncertain and they also have the burden of having to continue to play against big clubs so for that it would be better to try not to lose points because this is a crucial time and they have passed halfway by beating Tottenham and Manchester City, then they just have to continue to optimize their current condition so that their mentality and enthusiasm are maintained.

[Chilwell]

That match is going to be the strongest match on this weekend, for two champion to meet each other is actually going to be a tough one because the both team will put in all possible efforts to win the match but however considering there meetings all the times Manchester City has always make more wins than Liverpool.

Liverpool are far ahead of Manchester check it again if am not mistaken Liverpool got 15 wins while Manchester City got 10 wins and draw 12 in there history of meeting. The match will be talk of the weekend, the teams are known for their best performance, this is an opportunity for the both team to secure the top of the table, and also an opportunity for Arsenal to top the table only if they win against Brentford and Manchester City and Liverpool draw, I am much confidence that this match will result to draw, Manchester city are one point ahead of Liverpool, the both team will try there best to win but unfortunately is only that will win.
