Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Oshosondy]

Tottenham won as expected but I didn't expect to have many goals in this game.

It is a match, anything can be expected. I was expecting not team to score and likely that Tottenham would win and the club won.

Today City was very inspired and won by many goals and with that managed to stay in position 2 and honestly this is bad for liverpool, as a fan of liverpool I hoped that in this round city and chelsea would draw and liverpool could stay in second place and with the same points as chelsea

Even if it happened the way you want it, Chelsea will still not have the same point with Liverpool, Chelsea will still be at the top but with closer point range.

Next round will be:

Liverpool : Southampton
Manchester City : West Ham United
Chelsea : Manchester United

Next round is not also Chelsea vs Manchester City, it is vs Manchester United. Obviously Chelsea might win this match but no one knows yet. Also EPL is tougher than this, we can be expecting Liverpool to win and it can be the other way.

I really want to see Zidane or Laurent Blanc as a Manchester United manager.
The Glazers gave more time and a second chance to Solskjaer,but he failed.
It's really difficult for a big team like Man United to find the right manager.People like Jose Mourinho and Louis van Gaal have failed miserably as Man United managers.Back in the late 80s,nobody was expecting Alex Ferguson to become the biggest manager in the history of Manchester United,but the owners let him work for several years before achieving any success.Nowadays,no football club owner has that patience.

Zidane has turned it down a number of times, and I don't think there is any other way than to find a potential coach like Zidane or even the Manchester United manager has another list they are considering. Time demands must also be made faster decisions. Improvements to the coach will greatly determine the future of Manchester United going forward.

Let's see how Michael Carrick handles the team against Villarreal and Chelsea this are the two most important games at hand.
Maguire back there in our defense is also a huge setback, too slow and dull to be there.
I feel he's the worst defender in Manchester United history.

Yes, while Carrick will replace the position that was left by Solskjaer for a while, because Manchester may be looking for a coach who will work until the end of the season, it is enough to wait for Carrick progress to be able to handle Manchester in the two big games, so far it is Carrick who being Solskjaer assistant, of course, he has a game scheme that is almost the same as Solskjaer in my opinion, but right now of course he will have an absolute decision regarding the formation of the squad later, and hopefully he can apply a different squad to the Manchester defense later, because admit it or not Manchester has The defense has been pretty bad this season and it's time for Carrick to not played Maguire in the next game.

Yes, this is confirmed information - De Bruyne tested positive for coronavirus and is in a 10-day quarantine now. Undoubtedly, he is the brain and the engine of the team, but I think that in the home match against PSG City will cope even without him. PSG are not showing convincing performance and I doubt they will be as lucky as in the first leg.

I'm just worried that Manchester City will suffer 2 defeat for the 2 leg of the Champions League group stage because by far Messi is the player who often scores goals against City. Yesterday he scored his first goal in Ligue 1 and I believe he is in active mode as a player who will endanger the Manchester City defence. Even if PSG or City lose that game, but I think both team will qualify for the next round considering that Brugge will no longer harm them.

Messi is not a player that City should be afraid of, I think that now in PSG Messi is not even in the top 3 players in terms of importance. Firstly, all his life he played in a different manner, and secondly, you must not forget the factor of age. PSG and City are 99% secured to the playoff stage, but in fact, I would be glad if at least one of these moneybags left the tournament at this stage

Villareal become first match debut for Michael Carrick as coach for Manchester United on champion league, this most important match for United to make them easy pass qualify to next stage if success get three points from Villareal, will be hard for Michael Carrick can make Manchester United will failed again like last year after not pass on group stage champion league. Villareal and United have seven points will make both team want to win in this match.

I really did not expect Leeds to be in the relegation zone after 1/3 of the season. They were really good last season, this year I have a feeling everything's going against them. They were at least as good as Tottenham yesterday, the minimum they deserved was a point and again - they were left with nothing.

They are playing good enough so I feel they will eventually start climbing up - but the longer the season goes, the more fear crawls into the players and starts affecting performances too. I hope they start collecting points soon, they are a good addition to the league.

[skarais]

Club Brugge still has a chance to make it to the round of 16, so PSG and City being the favorites in that group have to be very careful,

You're right Brugge might still have a chance of qualifying but I don't think it was as expected. Even so, PSG and Manchester City still have to be aware of their chances of winning the match vs. Leipzig.

Having said that, City's game against Everton was a perfect way to prepare for their game against PSG, Manchester City dominated the match and came out comfortable winners in the end. I know City lost their first leg tie against PSG, but in my opinion, they were the better team, I believe they must have corrected their mistakes and I am rooting for them to be victorious in this second leg fixture.

It would be nice if the Manchester City vs PSG match in the second leg ended in a PSG win because it would only give them a bigger chance to qualify for the next round even though Brugge won vs Leipzig on Wednesday as Manchester City are believed to have won the match vs Leipzig in the last group game.

When a team creates chances very very and is poor in the final third,do you think they can score Goals?
The absence of Bamford is very obvious,ion how long until he comes back fully for Leeds United.
It's unlike them,did very good last season right heading back to we're they came from.

I was saddened when Zidane turned down the offer but since he has his own ambitions and personal reasons then giving Michael Carrick the chance to prove his worth should be next. His first debut in the champios league against Villarreal what a strong task ahead. This match would definitely speak much about him either ways the game goes

carrick is a big hope for MU to win the match against Villareal in the champions league later

I'm very curious what strategy Carrick will launch, and how he can strengthen the MU defense

The statement I bolded above really saddened me.
How do you mean that Mourinho failed miserably as a Manchester United manager?
Was Mourinho given enough time?
He gave us Europa cup 2017; brought out the best in Pogba in that tournament, yet he failed miserably;
He won EPL Cup yet He failed miserably;
2018 he ended second in table below 100pointers, yet he failed miserably.
You need to withdraw that statement and apologise to Mourinho.
If actually Mourinho failed miserably; what adjective will you use for Ole?

Carrick must be in a very high tensioned situation at the moment as so much expectations coming from the club and the fans at large and he barely has less than 24hours to play against Villarreal in the champions league. He just has to deliver and I the odd for Manchester united to win tomorrow is quite high

I believe it's no different with Ole strategy because he was staff before. I watch him always giving the idea for Ole when MU is stuck but there is no solution, MU keeps losing. He also didn't have experience as a coach that makes the squad still don't have the confidence for the next game. But, there is no solution, the official doesn't have a suitable candidate right now.

Carrick certainly has a big workload right now at manchester, moreover he will be tested with two big games that are very decisive for manchester, do you think he will be able to make changes in the manchester squad in such a short time?

The will surely be a difference with Ole's tactics.
There is a organisation I was the vice chairman, I gave all my ideas to my chairman. But unfortunately those ideas were too weird for him to implement. And at a time, there is only one decision maker.
But down the lane, he left office and I became the chairman.
I started implementing those ideas I was consistently suggesting to him, at first the ideas were all strange. It looked as if they will not scale through, but I personally pushed harder with my few believers. Today those ideas are now standards for the organisation.
Though Carrick might not have the ample time to implement his ideas like I had, but surely his ideology must differ from Ole's.

[Marykeller]

The Premier League is more competitive now since the introduction of new managers into the Premier League. Clubs that are not doing well before are beginning to do better since they sack their managers. There has been changing of formation and attacking force ever since Aston Villa, Norwich, and Tottenham changed their managers and they have all won their various matches handling the clubs.
Now Manchester United have sacked their manager, let's see who's gonna be their new manager cos they ought to win their next match by all means but, unfortunately, they'll be playing against Chelsea

[D-law]

Speculations about who gat the Manchester United job, I really do want to see an experienced coach,the board has taken a good decision in handling Carrick temporarily,let's hope and see how things turn around.
But I'll Champion the move for a Coach that has premier league experience, Antonio Conte would have been better off all this Zidane,Carrick, Rooney and all the rest.
Since he's currently occupied, a move for Pochetino will do,that's if he is ready to make a move for the job.... he'll do better...with the quality players around.

An experienced coach will be good for job. Atleast some who know he will be qualify to work on the team . I don't have anyone  in mind and I can't choose Amy but I believe this time around let the board do the best in get a good coach that will transform the drastically.

Stop your sadness, Zidane doesn't want to be at Manchester United, maybe there will be someone more appropriate to bring Manchester United to the front seat with a new coach who is still a question mark. Maybe we think that so far Zidane deserves to be in the chair of Manchester United coach. While the United manager has also offered it first.
Because next Sunday to face Chelsea, of course this is quite a tough challenge.

I think  Zidane would love to coach a club like Manchester United but the so called board can't convince him or motivate him that they knows football, that's why he rejected there offers, how can you appoint Michael Carrick as a United coach when we all knows he does not have experience, I even think Ole is even better,he is not outspoken (Carrick). He has been at Manchester as a coach for a while but there is nothing interesting in him when sitting on the bench, don't know if they just want him to coach 3 or 4 games as they keep searching for new coach because I don't understand.
