Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

Although Chelsea won, they still need to fine tune their attack more. This way, they can get more goals with those attempts.

Think their attack is OK so long as the defense doesn't leak avoidable goals. They didn't win last year's Champion's League by mistake

Yep Arsenal's team wasn't impressive, but what was really great is that Lukaku directly scored and led Chelsea to the win. He wasn't even sent on the bench and played the full range. That guy is just physically fit as hell. He is going to rock the season without a doubt and he also has the right players surrounding him. Just check out the whole team today and check out the whole Chelsea bench, such a strong team.

Anybody who thought Arsenal was going to win this game must have been daydreaming. What I don't understand is how they are currently ranked as the highest spenders in the PL this transfer window, and yet all the players they bought don't seem to be big game players.

Arsenal - Chelsea game ended just as I expected. I was expecting to see Chelsea simply destroying their opponent as Arsenal were still having problems. They were weak on especially the attacking side as Lacazette and Aubameyang were still absent.

Good debut by Lukaku, he scored 1 goal. Arsenal were made helpless, actually if you saw the beginning of the match Arsenal had pressured Chelsea. But after 10 minutes Chelsea were able to come out and play well. I knew from the start that Arsenal would not be able to keep up with Chelsea.

If until the end of the season Solkjaer is still the coach of MU, maybe MU should forget about the trophy in the near future.

Regarding the sacking I think you are right, even I agree that Manchester United should start this season with a new coach. Today Manchester United, unfortunately they only drew with Southampton. Fred's own goal and Maguire's near miss almost cost Manchester United. Luckily De Gea was able to close no additional goals.

Manchester Utd were not good enough against Southampton today. I don't know what happened to them after only one game. They played incredibly well against Leeds. But it was like they didn't want this win really bad. If they did, they would have finished Southampton also. They are powerful enough to do that. I hope to see Manchester Utd putting up a good fight for the title this time. If they fade away in this title race also, then we may not see Solskjaer managing the team anymore as of the next season.

Well, this is soccer and an underdog can always win by a lucky goal and by the opponent hitting the post 5 times in a row. If you do sportsbetting I am pretty sure you know what I am talking about right? I can tell you I lost my nerves a couple of times when the underdog scored the goal and then you thought, ah no problem still 70 minutes left, and the game ends 0 -1.

This were important three points for Bayern. They'll be much more focused next game I would expect.

Today Harry Kane finally started to play but he wasn't in the starting eleven. He entered the match in the 72nd minute replacing Son. But he didn't do much and Tottenham managed to get a 1-0 win against Wolves away. Dele Alli scored the goal in the first minutes of the match. As Kane played at least for around 20 minutes, I wonder if he will start being in the starting eleven and if the transfer to City will happen.

Yes, this story still does not think to end, giving new food for thought. Because if Kane had come out from the first minutes, then the talk about moving to Manchester City would have subsided a little, and then he appeared at the end of the match, as if telling everyone that nothing has been decided yet and the situation can turn both in one direction and in the other. Against this background, the information from Radio 24 looks quite interesting that Tottenham is monitoring the situation with Ronaldo and wants to offer him a contract. Is it with the money from the sale of Kane? However, this transition is unlikely to take place, because Ronaldo wants to be in a team that plays in the Champions League, with which Tottenham have very big problems

How unlucky can Manchester United be, first they get an own goal courtesy of Fred and now they are failing to win after scoring two goals of the match....can a miracle happen before the end of the match, we can't be dropping points this early when the league isn't even heated up yet.

Manchester United will not win the match despite the extra time. I guess the match is going to end with the 1:1 goal score for both teams.

The match finally ended draw. Manchester United tried their possible best by equalizing the match after Fred scored an own goal 30 minutes in the first half, but couldn't win the match. I literally thought Manchester United was going to lose the match after the first half ended. Although, Southampton haven't won any match this season, they lost their last match which was against Everton. While Manchester United now have 4 points.

Fate did not help them. Even after such a good performance, they could not win. However, Marcus Rashford and Edinson Cavani are now out of the squad due to injuries. If they join the squad, the attacking side of the team Manchester United will become more powerful and irresistible.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Chelsea is performing stably as expected. But Manchester United and Manchester City are not performing as expected. Manchester United drew with Southampton yesterday and Manchester City lost to Tottenham in their first match. The sooner the two teams return to the truck, the greater the competition for the title. Many teams will compete for the title this season. So teams have to be careful about losing points from the beginning.

Both teams had chances to score more goals, but they failed to do so. I think the Southampton looked easy to get into the Man United defense and the Man United defense line looked overwhelmed with it. Maybe it's time for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to give Raphael Varane a role, at least to see if Varane can improve Man United's defense.

As discussed earlier Arsenal are out of form and Chelsea are on fire So don't be surprised if Chelsea can win even if they play away, bad luck for Arsenal continues in the next match when they have to come to Man city I don't think Arsenal can get 1 point On the other hand, Man City continues to be obsessed with chasing Chelsea.
Bad results also came for Man United only getting 1 point against Southampton but ok they are still on track.

Arsenal now are not competitive even for position in Europa League. They are in downside after the transition from Arsene Wenger. Fans hoped that new coaches will change the situation but from Unai Emery to Mikel Arteta, Arsenal are still weak and very unstable.

With Arsene Wenger, their problems are mainly in defense system but after that they have problems in both defense and attack system. Very bad for them now.

Both teams had chances to score more goals, but they failed to do so. I think the Southampton looked easy to get into the Man United defense and the Man United defense line looked overwhelmed with it. Maybe it's time for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to give Raphael Varane a role, at least to see if Varane can improve Man United's defense.

Again Manchester United and Ole can not keep up their winning. Varane is a good central defender but the problems in Manchester United are not only in central defender position with Lindelof. The right wing is not good and their central midfielders can not protect their defense system.

I see this is a tight and interesting match, One person that I can see who playing best for MU is Pogba, He was found his best performance, he is just not lucky when conversating his goal chance. but overall his assist makes it a draw, Greenwood was competent, but Southampton did play really well, if the defender is loose possible MU get the big win.

@blue Snow if you’ll remember I had said that Manutd cannot be title challengers till they play with Matic, Fred, Mctominay and yet Ole decides to stick by them. Furthermore Van de beek, Varane ans Sancho are getting wasted on the bench, and I’ll be totally disappointed if those 3 are not in the starting lineup in their next fixture.

[abhiseshakana]

Again Manchester United and Ole can not keep up their winning. Varane is a good central defender but the problems in Manchester United are not only in central defender position with Lindelof. The right wing is not good and their central midfielders can not protect their defense system.

In yesterday's game, I think Harry Maguire failed to keep the line he should have kept, even the blunder he did almost led to a goal for Southampton (when the ball he controlled was snatched away by James Ward-Prowse). I hope Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sees that too and started thinking about letting Raphael Varane play in the next match.

As for the central midfielders, I agree with you. Man United really needs a holding midfielder who is very tough like Roy Keane.

The problem with arsenal is not from Mikel Arteta, it goes way up to the owners of the club. Those guys decide who to spend money on. Arsene Wenger did well to manage the club without signing expensive players. Truth be told it doesn't matter who the manager is, Arsenal are going to do poorly because they don't have a team that's feeling competitive for the season.

[Oshosondy]

All these does not yet mean anything, EPL at the beginning of a season is not predictable, we do not know the club that will win and that will quality for champions league, only that we know some teams have more chances to be at the top. I have not seen any complain about Man City and Man United because they are still playing good, the only bad comment I have now is Arsenal that was won by Brentford which is a small club if compared to Arsenal, that is not only the bad aspect, also that arsenal as not even scored just only one goal since the start of this season.

I could not agree more, Arsenal seems to be in their worst situation this season. They do not want to spend more money to build a good competitive squad. Basically its been so long time they do like this, relying on young potential players but they lack of experiences. I feel that Arsenal's main management is focusing to make money only. Spend less money to get build the squad, get more money from sponsors, tickets & merchandise sales, without any intentions to be the champion of Premier League.

This is the effect of the striker crisis at Arsenal buying several players in the transfer market has not succeeded in improving performance
Even though Arsenal have spent a lot of money maybe we can call Arsenal a failure in the transfer market this time

Maybe sooner or later Arsenal will lose a lot of fans and will definitely make the income from what you mention decrease, it's a shame if there is a club that is only oriented towards money and not achievements, how long will Arsenal last with this situation? management should also know that good performance will also bring a lot of money.

West Ham vs Leicester, what is your though? the two teams are at the same level as seen in the odds that the bookies provide not much different.

To be fair the team was already in a mess when Mikel Arteta came in. The team is unstable, Arsenal at this point is in a period of transition, things are going to be more difficult henceforth because losing two matches consecutively at the beginning of the season will weaken their spirit. Arteta will have to give the team a pep talk to boost their morale. A win was what they needed to bounce back to life, everyone underestimated Brentford since they came out of regulation...supposed to be a easy win for Arsenal but they  lost.

I could not agree more, Arsenal seems to be in their worst situation this season. They do not want to spend more money to build a good competitive squad.

The money they spent for transfers in latest seasons are not small and it is only because they did bad transfers or they did one good transfers after 1 or 3 seasons. So when a new successful transfer is made, the previous successful player already falls to downward of performance.

Generally they don't get net effects from a few good transfers they made recent years.

Arsenal were wrong when they sacked Unai Emery. In my opinon, Unai Emery is better than Arteta and he has better results for the team than Arteta. This season, Arteta will very likely be sacked because I don't believe he will be able to help the team going back to right track.

A few more bad matches and he will be sacked. I don't hope it happens but who knows, it might be a good thing for the club.
