Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Oluwa-btc]

Man United recruited Rasmus Hojlund for a transfer fee of 72 million pounds. However, the Danish player's performance is extremely unstable. He started struggling in the Premier League and still needs goals for MU in this arena. I wonder why Hojlund hasn't been able to score in the Premier League yet. I liked Hojlund's performance. He is a speedy striker, ready to outrun the opponent's 4 or 3 defenders. However, it will take some time before he stabilizes. Rasmus is new to the club and is slowly getting used to the rhythm of the other players. Hopefully, he will become a good striker in the future.

I Personally do not fall for left footed strikers though Rasmus Hojlund makes the right movement and finds himself in the right spot but Manchester United wingers have failed to play around him. I've complained too much about Marcus Rashford failing to work something out for his number nine. Take a look at Manchester City, they all played to see Erling Haaland scoring goals last season and it resulted to him scoring the highest goals and helping Manchester City winning the treble.

Manchester United should create more chances for him and play to his strength. it's has got to be the reason why Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United wants a second striker. Most definitely, Antonio Martial will be sold or loaned he has been doing poorly due to consistent Injury.

When Manchester United signed the young striker I was not that comfortable with the signing not because the striker is not good enough, it is because he is young compared to the amount of money that he was signed with. Those kind of big signing is best for strikers that have played in the English Premier League.

Why who Hojlund is yet to adapt to the English Premier League pattern is because some players like Rashford has refused to help him get a goal, even Bruno Fernandes was supposed to have given him an assist to get a goal in the English Premier League. The young striker is not bad he has the champions league by scoring goals. Yet he is yet to replicate same in the English Premier League. He need the help of the squad as they do to Halland inManchester City

Manchester united is in poor form, it's quite understandable. Why are you pointing fingers at Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandez for refusing to create key passes to the new striker, Rasmus Højlund. Ofcourse the new striker you claim to be having difficulty in adapting to the style of his new club, is topping the ranking when it comes to goals scored in the UEFA Champions League tournament this season. Is he still the striker that claims to be experiencing hard-time in Manchester United? Fine, he's struggling to hustle out a goal in EPL though he has scored but his goals tends to be ruled out by VAR for upside or foul.

Their culture are different, Manchester City's culture is play for team regardless there's a star player or not. But Manchester United's culture is play with ego and seniority, since both Bruno and Rashford are old players, they deserved to get ball than the striker.

Hojlund is just a junior player, maybe Bruno is working together with Rashford in order to destroy Hojlund and Rashford will back as a pure striker.

It's funny to say how hojlund was nothing compared to another striker that play for the different club at this moment. Over priced guy, his price is not even worth with his performance at this moment. I would like to see manchester united to get another expensive player to see whether the main problem was on the player or coach itself. This is really important to identify that caused by the future of club will be determined by the player and coach. Haaland's performance was so amazing unlike rasmus which is a flop in EPL.
This is the fact.

It seems there is something wrong with the tactics used by Ten Hag, because at national team level Hojlund is quite productive in terms of scoring goals. It could be that Hojlund is really trusted by his colleagues when it comes to final finishing matters in the Danish main squad, unlike at Man United. I think these two things are factors why Hojlund has not been able to meet expectations according to his price, maybe if Ten Hag is fired Hojlund will become a sharp striker.

Gradually, it is becoming difficult for all of us to understand what is wrong with Man United this season, it seems like a major overhaul is needed within the club. United players show different performances when playing with their respective countries, it's a little funny and even very strange. Despite all that, maybe United current situation is part of Ten Hag plan to surprise us all, who knows, this week United will go crazy and appear consistent in every competition they participate in.

This weekend Chelsea faces Newcastle, and they deserves a win. However, Newcastle has proven to be a strong team. In their last meeting in the league cup back in 2010, Newcastle won a seven-goal thriller 4-3 against Chelsea. So, who will come out on top this time? Stats tell a story, but I don't like to rely on that. Things won't be the same as before this time. Chelsea seems to have been steadily improving, while injuries to Newcastle players make the match challenging for them. This time, Chelsea is coming for revenge, so Newcastle should be prepared. I hope Chelsea's players continue to improve their gameplay against Newcastle, which making it an exciting match to watch.

Personally, Newcastle United is strong opponent team for Chelsea but they have focus on Champion League match and not sure will make rotation composition against Chelsea or not. They won't loss points against PSG and seems not have many choose except save their main player for Champion League match and make some rotation on Premier League match.

Chelsea have good performance last two matches before international break out but will have consistency performance for upcoming match after get break out almost two weeks? Excited if Chelsea can continue their good performance and three points will help them slowly raise to higher position standing and get possibility will move two position above until 8th place but have waiting above team match result West Ham United and Brighton Albion will loss points in this week?

They have some really good players but they always get themselves into controversies either outside the club or something happens inside the club. I agree they need some high class wingers in order to be a competitive squad back again. Rashford can play at wing too but his actual use can be utilised using in striker position only. Antony is a decent one but not at a level what Greenwood used to produce earlier. Sancho has also gotten himself into spat with coach .. so there are lot of things going inside United and ten Haag needs to resolve this otherwise he will be sacked soon also.

The drama continues in the English Premier League after Everton's deduction of 10 points. Now, Tottenham is under scrutiny for the transfer of Jermain Defoe to Portsmouth in 2008 for around £7.5 million. They conducted the deal with a third-party without the proper FA license before the transfer took place. Recently, the FA stated they would review the case if there is new evidence indicating serious violations of principles. If found guilty, they could face a points deduction.
~snip~

Everton became a turning point regarding the FFP case. I think it will be even wider, initially Chelsea, Man City and this is Tottenham. I think there will be another drama made by FFP. In fact, this rule is very good, but it seems that a big club with a big transfer will have a lot of big turnover and needs investigation. If Everton get a 10-point deduction with one finding, it should be for a club that has many cases that the punishment will probably be more severe. Maybe it can be up to the taking of the title that has been obtained.

For Hojlund to have found it easy to score in the UCL and that fact that he hasn’t been able to replicate that goal scoring form in the EPL shows that the EPL defensive setup is a bit different. All three of his strikes for Manchester United have come in the UCL, while against English opposition he has struggled to make an impact. He’s played with both Rashford and Bruno Fernandes in both competitions and hasn’t found the net yet in the EPL. I think the Manager needs to unlock certain areas of his game. He’s a fine young striker.  But despite not scoring in the Premier League, Hojlund has made a positive impression.
 
Also, the bond between the wingers and Hojlund hasn’t been established yet, owing to the fact that Rashford has looked a shadow of the hitman who plundered 30 goals in all competitions last season. Antony remains without a goal or an assist in four starts. When these wingers gets into shape, I believe Hojlund will start to score.

When facing big clubs in the EPL, Chelsea also has to prepare their defense when facing Newcastle. Indeed, Newcastle is not an easy opponent, but among the clubs that Chelsea just beat, Newcastle is still not thats tough when compared to the last 2 club (Tottenham and Manchester City)

When Chelsea play against top clubs, they always have surprises and play better than when they play against bottom clubs, that's why this match against Newcastle will definitely be difficult to predict, looking at previous matches against Tottenham and Manchester City is enough to prove that they really play well. when facing a strong club that is at the top of the EPL standings.

Playing at home and as hosts, of course Newcastle also has high self-confidence playing in front of all their fans and winning is their goal against Chelsea to get full points so they can get a better position in the current standings, my prediction is that the result will probably be a draw because Chelsea will play optimally so as not to lose points because they will definitely have difficulty winning as a guest.

[poodle63]

There will be some sanctions will be given to the manchester city if the club will be proven with its guilty.

- 30 points deduction-
- Relegation to the championship division




There have been many rumors said that if manchester city will be relegated to the championship. We may able to see the result next year but city is still safe right now. It seems like FA is not considering chelsea to violate FFP rules.

It will be a disaster for city fans if they will be seeing their favorites club to compete in championship division. What about you guys?

Do you guys agree city to be sanctioned relegate to the championship? This is a very interesting question.

I agree Chelsea always surprises big clubs lately and with them you cannot never know. But to be at the very top you need to win against underdogs always thats how you are at very top. The league is won on small games not on big games. Chelsea is improving each match so i dont know what to bet on them honestly

[temple]

There have been several teams that found it difficult to beat Chelsea as of late. But Newcastle has the home advantage and I think they won't lose this game, but at the same time I would say that Chelsea has developed well and they have shown that they should not be written off too early this season. It will be a close game with many chances on both sides I think. But if I should pick a team to win this game, I would still go with Newcastle as they have had some incredible games in their stadium at home.

It is true. Chelsea became an obstacle for Tottenham and Man City. Chelsea stole points from those teams. So, it makes sense if people assume Chelsea will steal points from Newcastle, too.

Although Newcastle will play at home but their players are in bad situation, specifically for their attackers. There are too many injured players, it will be a big problem for Newcastle to play against Chelsea. I'm sure Newcastle seems difficult to win the match, they probably will play defensively due to the lack of attackers. They will try to get a draw result. With this matter, Chelsea may try to play more offensively. So, Chelsea will have a higher chance to win the match. The home advantage for Newcastle is likely to have no significant impact.

They won't try to tie the game because any team like Newcastle playing at home has the goal to win the game. It doesn't matter whether they play against Luton Town or Chelsea, playing at home as a Champions League participants means you want to beat every other team. But injuries could turn out to be heir weak point and Chelsea as one of the strongest teams on stranger ground might be sniffing a chance here to win some very important points for their way back up in the Premier League table.

If Newcastle was doing good as the previous season, I would say that they are the favourite ones definitely. Unfortunately this isn't the case right now. They are fluctuating from a match to another and the difference between them and Chelsea isn't that big. Even their odds according to bookies are the same. I don't know this could be considered as a good thing or not since Newcastle are playing home so normally their odds should be better.
I can't decide which team to support but I guess a draw is likely to happen unless a red card or an awful performance was shown by one of them.

This is the fact.

I don't really understand what happend to Rasmus Hojlund because at champion league and Denmark national team Rasmus Hojlund was onfire even during Euro 2024 qualification stages he was able to being an Denmark top scorer but i don't know why at Premier league he still unable to scores and this situation makes Ten Hag want to buy Griezmann from Atletico Madrid or Thomas Muller from Bayern Munich because currently Manchester United have a problem with their attacking lines and Rashford who performing well last season currently only scored 1 goal in Premier league so Ten Hag is really required new striker to solved their problem

[Spaceman1000$]

I think the confidence that Chelsea have when playing big team right is a big win for them, from the previous games the confidence of Chelsea have been everything. Newcastle is a strong team I so much believe in but I don't think playing with Chelsea will be an easy game for Newcastle. The last game Chelsea played with Manchester City has really proved Chelsea is good enough to face any Premier league team, even the game Chelsea played with arsenal is another game to see how Chelsea have improve in their performance this season,  I think Newcastle and Chelsea meeting will be another interesting game to watch Chelsea how good they have become.

No one should underestimate Mauricio Pochettino who's currently the headcoach of Chelsea, he was appointed because the owner, Todd Boehly believes he's a prominent coach and stands in the position to deliver the team at this crucial moment. Chelsea is a top club in EPL, that we shouldn't forget in a hurry. Simply because the Blues experience a bad season the previous EPL campaign, they can still bounce back to form this season because mere watching their games, there performance have increase and there's evidence of growth.  

Initially, many people underestimated Mauricio Pochettino from the start of coaching at the Chelsea club. Many thought that Pochettino did not have a good strategy in improving Chelsea performance. Indeed, at first Chelsea start the season badly, but slowly Pochettino has begun to know what strategies he should apply to current Chelsea player. This is so that there are no more insults that put too much pressure on the Chelsea coach, at least Pochettino also has to implement good strategies such as when facing the last 2 match of the clubs he brought so that Chelsea can performed better in the remaining matches in the EPL.

When facing big clubs in the EPL, Chelsea also has to prepare their defense when facing Newcastle. Indeed, Newcastle is not an easy opponent, but among the clubs that Chelsea just beat, Newcastle is still not thats tough when compared to the last 2 club (Tottenham and Manchester City)

I don't really agree with such an ideology of playing very well when you meet big club and giving points away to smaller teams, this to me seems like inconsistency and mediocrity on the side of the manager. He has to replicate the same winning result everytime and everywhere if he must secure a place for Chelsea in the European competitions because if he fails to do this, then his job could be on the line.

It doesn't matter about Newcastle's unstable performance at this moment because after all, the reality is Manchester City who are still in good form but in fact managed to be held to a draw by Chelsea in the previous match. Also, Tottenham who have been very impressive so far this season, but the reality is that they were beaten by Chelsea too. So ya, I don't care about Newcastle's performance in this moment whether good or bad because of course, this match will still be a big match too this weekend. So ya, if we are confused about the betting options, then I think it would be more appropriate to bet with the option of both teams to score. Because yes, after all, Newcastle and Chelsea are still quite productive so far this season, so I'm sure this match will be interesting with goals coming from these two teams.

I think what is most important for Chelsea is that there is finally a discussion going on whether they can beat Newcastle or not. A few weeks and months ago Chelsea was not competitive anymore and they lost games that I thought can't be lost by them. But now they are good enough and back in shape to be a threat again for the good teams and I think this is fun again. Chelsea was disappointing like hell for so long and I gave them a few chances to watch a game from time to time, but stopped doing so. Now it is worth tuning in again. I think this is what is really great news.

The young striker is not bad he has the champions league by scoring goals. Yet he is yet to replicate same in the English Premier League. He need the help of the squad as they do to Halland inManchester City

I think Manchester United were too hasty in signing Rasmus Højlund from Atalanta, especially as he only had 1 season there with 9 goals and 2 assists in 32 appearances in Serie A. Of course Ten Hag is aware of the talent Rasmus Højlund has as a center forward and he can be developed and become one of the best. However, the problem is, the high level of egoism of other Manchester United players has made it difficult for Rasmus Højlund to find himself in the Premier League.

Rasmus Højlund has so far scored 5 goals in 4 appearances in the Champions League with Manchester United. He hasn't scored a single goal in his 9 Premier League appearances, but if he really gets the support then I'm sure his performance this season will be very good. Just like Haaland, Rasmus Højlund just needs full support to help Manchester United get more goals.

Rasmus would come around I believe. It's just that he needs to adapt to the premier league style of play and understand that the league is way different from the Atalanta league he was signed from.
Unlike Harry McGuire of whom the media brought so much sentiments on, he is currently even doing better and has helped the Manchester United defense and team in winning some of their matches.

Maybe Erik Ten Hag saw talent while at Atalanta even though it was only 1 season with Atalanta but Erik Ten Hag has seen so far that even with injuries Højlund was signed by Manchester City and I don't doubt Højlund because he seems to have talent at a young age.

That is the selfishness of Manchester United players is still difficult for Erik Ten Hag to overcome even though we have known how other players do the same, but do not know what is in Ten Hag's mindset because he is still difficult to manage the squad that is still surrounded by other player problems such as Jadon Sancho.

I think Erik Ten Hag believes in Rashford more than Højlund, although my own assumption is that Højlund's game is better than the current Rashford, he has a selfishness and wants to control the ball to score but does not think about the chances of other players.
