Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

^  I think they do imho.  But not because I think the players aren’t good. They need to freshen up their squad and bring in new faces every couple of years or so.  Most clubs become stale and under perform if the club doesn’t bring something new in their squad.  Best example:  Poch’s Spurs to an extent.

If you ask me Liverpool doesn't need any new players, they just need to stay healthy and they just need to want the game.

I don't think so. Their team looks good but they will need another striker, just to be a good substitution for Firmino or replace him. Diego Jota is not a striker.

They won't need too many new players but need their players as healthiest as possible.

Their team was amazing with the same roster in some games and then it sucked with the same players in some games, the bad part about this season was that they had like 5 or so game losing streak, that is not something Liverpool does very easily, at least not in the recent years, I mean think about it, instead of 5 losses in a row, if it was 5 wins in a row they would have been 84 points and right behind city with one game difference.

Their main problems came from many injuries that they need to avoid in the new season.

Liverpool have interest in Adam Hlozek, He is from Czech Republic and currently in Sparta Prague. He got the premier league attention after ending the 2020/2021 season with 15 goals and 9 assists from 23 appearances for Sparta Prague. He is a young talented player and I hope Liverpool sign him. Although, West Ham also have interest in the player.

I did some research about him and it looks like he has a really nice potential. I'm not sure whether he is a wonderkid though. But his performance in the last season was delightful. He is only 18 years old now. Liverpool have only Firmino and Origi as CF. He may be a good alternative in the subs and may even become a player of the starting eleven in the future.

I haven't been following what's going on in Liverpool that much, but is there any reason why Georginio Wijnaldum's contract was never extended in Liverpool and therefore ending up in PSG as a free agent?

The guy has been on fire in this Euros competition with 3 goals in 3 games. That from a midfielder is astonishing. Liverpool must be cursing themselves for not keep him.

Wijnaldum is not an important player in Liverpool. He has to share his position in the squad with other players and perhaps it is reason he left the club. In Liverpool, he scored some important goals for them but he is not a goal-productive midfielder. What you see in the Euro is a short show from him.

He is not a kind of Lampard or Gerrad who can score hundred of goals in all career.

He is not a kind of Lampard or Gerrad who can score hundred of goals in all career.

If we look at the list of goalscorers in this season's Euro Wijnaldum, he is in 2nd place with 3 goals.
Against North Macedonia, Wijnaldum was voted the 'Star of the Match' by UEFA's official panel. Maybe he can't be like the liverpol legend but I think he can be an important player at Liverpool.

@OcTradism Wijnaldum is a talented player and I believe he has lots of potential to become a great player, but only time will reveal whether he performed consistently or no. @Luzin he was a Liverpool player, and now he’s sealed his transfer to PSG and it’s a disappointing move cause he chose to play in a easy league.

Georginio Wijnaldum is a very talented player. PSG's forward is very strong. With Georginio Wijnaldum in the team, their midfield will become stronger. The PSG team will be more stable and strong next season. They have not won a title this season. They will definitely want to win the Ligue 1 title next season.

It sometimes happens that players play better for their national teams than for the clubs they play for. It looks like some kind of paradox, but it really is. I don't think Liverpool is worried about this, Klop has enough strong players in every position, and maybe he just does not fit into Liverpool's model of play. There can be many reasons.

Last season also Georginio Wijnaldum looked impressive for Liverpool but was only plagued by injuries so he didn't play more but Klopp must have a better plan or it's true that you said he didn't match his performance even though in the EURO 2020 competition he looked stunning with 3 goals in 3 appearances but I don't know if it's official or not, it's clear that Klopp has new plans for Liverpool this coming season.

I say this is not self-deprecating that Liverpool midfielders have a lot of quality and this will guarantee Liverpool after losing Georginio Wijnaldum nothing will change meaning the midfielders stay strong and operate.

But indeed, I think Liverpool can extend his contract for at least another 2 to 3 seasons. I think Wijnaldum is still very good for Liverpool. Considering that he is still 30 years old, he is still a productive age in the EPL but yes, maybe Klopp prefers Thiago Alcantara who in my personal view is still not suitable for Liverpool and yes, hopefully this will not be a blunder.

...  Or Philippe Coutinho.    I’ve always been curious on what the consesus is among fans if Coutinho went back to Liverpool.  Will he love him or hate him?

Klopp could get him on the cheap and maybe at slightly lower wages too.

Philippe Coutinho is like an invisible player at Barcelona and maybe it is time he should leave if his career in football is still important. Liverpool could get him back but I'm not sure the fans will feel the same about him after playing for two different team in Barcelona and Bayern munchen. I think Barcelona will release Coutinho if anyone is interested, because so far he hasn't contributed much to the team.

According to reports,Ben White's deal is already a done deal for Arsenal FC after their 45 million was accepted by Brighton today.The only thing left is a medical which is scheduled for tomorrow or next.This is really a good news for Arsenal.But this transfer is going to force the coach,Mikel Ateta to send William Saliba on loan again which will really be a bad news for the young lad which is ready to prove himself at Arsenal this season.

Ben white is one of the players who has been quite consistent in maintaining Brighton defense throughout the 2019/20 season, and of course arsenal will be very lucky to have him, because from the past defense has been a weakness of arsenal, after the departure of Sol Campbell and Kolo Touré until now arsenal has not again have a defender who is quite strong in guarding their defense, and I think Arteta has done the right thing by signing Ben White and I think william saliba still doesn't have enough experience in the English premier league, So it is better to go back on loan to another club this season .

The PSG team will be more stable and strong next season. They have not won a title this season. They will definitely want to win the Ligue 1 title next season.

Wijnaldum is 30 years old, he is not going to get too many years left to provide if he is consistent or not, if he was so far according to your view then he is, if he hasn't been I doubt that in the next 5 years he is going to suddenly change that.

Talent is something else, consistency is something else, you can be a very talented player but then fall short and then even make a comeback, but consistency is something what you bring every game and play the way you play every game, doesn't need to be a superstar level, nobody expects that, for example Busquets was never a superstar, but he was a consistent player all his career, that is something Wijnaldum is in my opinion, he is not a superstar but he is definitely a player who is consistent on what he can do and thats what PSG is getting with him. Would have been great in premier league too.

Honestly, I really like Georginio Wijnaldum. He is absolutely a talented midfielder. But he has started to get old from now on. He is 30 now. I'm not sure that he can contribute to the team nicely for a few years. There are players like Verratti (28), Rafinha (28) and Herrera (31) who can play on the same position with Wijnaldum. I guess that there will be a tough rivalry between them for the starting eleven. If I were PSG's manager, I would prefer Verratti - Rafinha - Wijnaldum trio if we think their tactic will be 4-3-3.

According to today's reports,Arsenal are on the verge of signing both Sterling and Mahrez from Mancity,after Arsenal owner Kreonke handed Mikel Arteta a whooping $250 million for transfers this season.And Arteta have seen the both wingers as the only signings who can transform the club into tittle contenders.Nevertheless,It is yet to be seen if the both players would prefer a move to north London this summer.

Sterling and Mahrez to Arsenal hmm.. sounds interesting but don't see it happening. Currently Aubameyang (on the left) and Saka (on the right) are still there. Unless they free them up I don't see it happening. On right wing position, they have Saka who is young and talented and Pepe there as well so no chance for Mahrez. As for Auba, haven't heard of any news regarding his departure so no Sterling as well. Arsenal might well be interested but will Sterling and Mahrez be up to this move.

There was one rumour that I like a lot which was Andre Silva from Frankfurt to Arsenal. The striker was quite on form for the German side and Arsenal do need a proper striker who can put the ball in the back of net and also for this to happen they need to sell Lacazette.

Arsenal are ambitiously targetting players but honestly IMO they need to sign players who are in the making from small clubs.
