Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Vdecso]

Leicester - Chelsea is the opening match this time. And I must admit that it is an interesting one. Chelsea is the favourite side here obviously considering their recent performance comparison. We were very accustomed to see Leicester at top places for some years and now it is worrying to see them struggling to climb to upper positions. And Chelsea would like to take advantage of their current weakness. Leicester's last big home match was against Arsenal and they lost 2-0. If they don't make an effort for getting a better result, they are likely to lose this match too.

STEPHEN GERRARD TO ASTON VILLA

Nice one that England is being much more competitive. There's no doubt that Gerrard will do well. Some notable players will join him for sure. While we are all expecting Newcastle to do wonders, Aston Villa can take us all by surprise come next season.
Every club us amending and paying compensations while Manchester United is keeping Ole and playing mind game with the fans. The end will surely justify the means.

I have no doubt he is a great former player, he is also a player who is loyal to the club. Just look from the junior to senior team about 26 years he remains with Liverpol. He was also a success of the liverpol academy. After retiring from Liverpol he was only at La Galaxy for one season. After that with Rangers he won the Scottish League season 2020/2021 it was the first title since he as coach. It's a pretty good achievement, I'm waiting for him to compete with Ole, otherwise he's the same age as him.

Personally it Would have been better Gerrald spend more seasons with Ranger before taking up any EPL job though he has a good record with Ranger, however taking up the job as Aston Villa Manager now would be very challenging job knowingly that EPL is very competitive, how better is he compared to sacked Smith? recall how Lampard was hurriedly signed by Chelsea at the end he was sacked as a result streaks of losses and underperformance, presently Aston Villa is 16th on the table with two points above relegation teams thus he will have to battle against relegation.

QUICK REMINDER!

Since the start of this season's EPL journey, so far
Five managers have been sacked.
They are;
Xisco Munoz.          - Watford
Nuno Espirito Santo.   - Tottenham Hotspur
Steve Bruce.     -  Newcastle United
Daniel Farke.    -  Norwich City
Dean Smith.     - Aston Villa .
Tension!
Who do you think will make the number six?

It's not a new phenomenon in the EPL to fire coaches in the middle of a season, and the most sacks of coaches in 2013/2014 and 2017/2018 were 10 coaches each in that season.

And in the middle of this season there have been 6 coaches who have been sacked, and it is likely that this number will increase or be the same as the previous number because this season is still ongoing. And one manager whose future is at risk is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and if the next few games are bad there is a possibility of being sacked.

It is a really nice signing for Aston Villa. Steven Gerrard is a Premier League legend as all people know this. Aston Villa have been through a really tough period of time in the Premier League in the recent times. They needed to take important actions to make things right. And this is definitely a good start. They are not a weak team normally and they deserve the better. I hope to see the team rising with the help of Gerrard.

^ Well, taking the duty of manager of a team which is currently at the 16th place on the table is really hard and also challenging. Aston villa doesn't have a very good squad also right now, to be honest. That could be a problem for the team. And I wonder how much it's gonna affect the team getting a new manager instead of planning for a better squad. Yes, I know that a manager can build up the chemistry between the players and all but you need better players to play better football. But I think this team will do better under new management.

There is no better time for Gerrard to come to English Premier League than now. We all know that the target is Liverpol Fc and not Aston Villa. But before he will begin to aim Liverpol job, his CV must include his success in EPL.
The case of Lampard was different, he went straight to Chelsea instead of small club, that was why it turned out that way.
If Gerrard will be able to escape relegation this season, it's already a plus to his career.
I wish him very well.

The need to improve the performance of the team is indeed a heavy duty of the coach, his credibility is determined by Indicatoe to what extent he is able to bring his team to the top of the standings. The primary league is currently so hard in management, there are many coaches that are fired due to dissatisfaction with their team results. If at this time he was in London for Aston, so I was sure his main strategy replaced several players and there must be something from Liverpool because of the potential of several Liverpool players who would have expired as well. To improve the future performance.

I think it’s a big risk for Gerrard to go to Aston Villa as they’re not in a great position. I suppose he has to take that step up though if he’s got his eyes on Klopp’s job when he finishes at LFC. I hope he does well, maybe Villa fans don’t expect too much this season though. Avoiding a relegation battle at the end of the season would probably be a success for Gerrard.

their performance is quite chaotic this season even from the last 5 matches they have never won a match and only kept losing.
on the other hand it is a challenge for gerrard to at least keep them away from the relegation zone as they are now in 16th position.
On the other hand, when Gerrard is at this club, I think it will trigger quite a heated upheaval among Liverpool fans at this time because Gerrard is indeed one of their legendary players and is considered a loyal player while playing at Liverpool.

Leicester City lost to Arsenal in that match because they didn't have control of the shooting at any point in time. They didn't have enough accuracy and also didn't make enough good chances converted. Counter attacking didn't also work out very well for them. They almost head double the possession and also had almost double shots on target. Birthday could not convert them into goals. I think they need to work on their conversion rate if they won to win against Chelsea in the upcoming match.

It looks like Leicester are no longer playing as usual against big clubs. Usually they are able to match the opponent's game. Instead, Arsenal are increasingly showing an increase in performance and are starting to catch up. Just look at Arsenal game which is getting neater by trying to open the position of the side of the attack. There has been an reshuffle that the coach has made carefully knowing Leicester weaknesses.

I think that might be just the soft spot for him at this point in time. He had to leave Scotland to progress his career, he did a great job at Rangers but you can only do so much there with limited budgets and a small pool of players.

Aston Villa is a decent club with a decent roster and a huge history. I feel confident they've got enough quality to easily stay in the league and I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of job Gerrard will do there. As you said - that's already a decent test for the Liverpool job - Rangers was far from it.

Leicester should change coaches, Rodgers hasn't been able to get the team into the top 3/4 for 3 years. We are dancing around the same thing, the last two seasons we have finished in 5th place, time to be in the top 3. What's more, they can't even play well in the Europa League, unfortunately... And if you look at it, there are no transfers that would be very useful...

[justdimin]

As I recall, when Arsenal fell, their coach was also faced with the possibility of being sacked. Fortunately, Arteta can fix these problems and can even bring Arsenal into the top 5 for the time being. If Man United had kept Ole, then Ole could have followed in Arteta's footsteps because Man United actually has a lot of good players but for that, he had to do his best.

I think Ole has almost the same story as Sir Alex Ferguson when he first came to Man United. Sir Alex took 4 years to get his first trophy for Man United, and it took 7 years to win the EPL. What makes a difference, Sir Alex has proven to the world that he is a really great coach (giving many trophies to Man United), whereas Ole still hasn't managed to do it.

Right now, Arsenal is at 5th position, right? This team was at the bottom of the league for the starting weeks. Which means that if they are capable of being at the top with the same roster, then it should not be acceptable to be at the bottom as well.

I get why they were considering firing Arteta, now we have data to prove that they were good enough to be 5th at the very start as well, during that start if they got 1-2 more wins right now they would have been around the top, literally at the top maybe? So that start was unacceptable and if they failed to do the latest weeks like this, then he would be gone for sure, there is no doubt in my mind at all.

Last year Leicester City almost finish on the top four position and have bigger chance back to participant on champion league but last two match they not consistent and should finish above top four position and just get chance participated on Europe league. I believe with Roger have more opportunity for Leicester City can get dreaming back where ever success got primer league trophy and I see Roger have many chance to make Leicester City become most danger club on primer league.

Do you think changing coaches would make leicester city better today?
I don't think so, because I think Brendan Rogers has done a good job so far, the proof is that last season they were able to appear quite solid in the league despite failing to break into the big four, I saw after losing Wesley Fofana in last pre-season, now the Leicester defense is no longer strong And I think the loss of photana has had a huge effect on Leicester this season.
Even if leicester city has to change coaches, then who do you think is the right candidate to replace brendan?

Liecester has really tried for past seasons after lifting EPL. These guys have been somewhat consistent even more than big clubs such that they could even be classified as big team. They are used to selling their key players and still succeed. But this time around,  it didn't work. There is time for everything. They are should maintain and finish the league moderately, next season they can restrategize.

Rodger is decent coach but with low budget very few quality players pool also have some big impact on these things all are not lucky like Claudio Ranieri those can do things in master way.

Leicester City is a decent club have no good resources like other good English Clubs, so they have to face many things like this if management want some better results then surely they have to do some big changes like more funds better stadium which will create more opportunities like we have in Arsenal and now Tottenham is also investing some good for good end of this season. Right now, if you want to have better results then surely you need some good funds in your wallet for having very good and quality players and coach which can bring some good success for your club.

[Pulsar77]

When it comes to the Leicester - Chelsea game, I hope to watch a pleasant game by both sides. Leicester are having a problematic season now as we can clearly see it from their results recently. They are one of the middle-placed teams now and it is not very good for a team like them. Because Leicester have been one of the big and assertive teams of this league for some years. They need to recover immediately but it is really hard for them to get rid of the Chelsea obstacle. Because Chelsea are having a wonderful season and maintaining their lead too. They are the favourite of this game also. Leicester lost their last home game to Arsenal by 2-0. But this time, I expect them to fight for getting something in this and score at least one goal. So, my primary prediction is BTTS.

We really can't blame Brendan Rodgers for Leicester's failure to enter the top 4 in recent years. Because as you said, no matter how good a coach is
if he wants to make his team a great team, of course, it must be supported by strong finances. It's very difficult to repeat what Claudio Ranieri has
done, Leicester management must be able to think realistically if they demand Leicester to enter the top 4 without providing financial support
to Rodgers. Because Leicester had to buy some good players to be able to compete with the big teams in the Premier League, therefore Rodgers is
quite difficult with a low budget to make Leicester play well. So far I think Rodgers is a good coach, even though he hasn't been able to make
Leicester win any trophies. So it's not surprising that according to rumors Man United continues to approach Rodgers to be able to become
Solskjaer's replacement.
