Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[tulusikhlas]

I'm curious already about what Ralf Rangnick will do at Manchester United in the rest of the season. As far as I know, the deal is not official yet but there is not much time left for them to reach an agreement as it seems. Maybe he can do a decent job here also. This team need a good management immediately to collect themselves in a short time.

Exactly there are lot of people who have lot of doubts on Ralf Rangnick being as interim manager of Manchester United. What they need is a proper manager who can take good decision. They have already sacked Ole due to his poor performances and what when if Ralf Rangnick appointment also proves to be a failure later on? They need to take some right decisions and find someone who is experienced and can manage the team as big like United properly.

I also think so, with uncertain conditions and how to deal with his opponent next week, it will be a pretty tough test as alf Rangnick who is not good at managing Manchester United. Before coming the manager became quite comfortable. Either will be able to compete with a game formation like this.

Less expectation with Arsenal performance after defeat by Liverpool with bigger score, I think eight match unbeaten on all competition before because against from Arsenal are small club, but when faced with bigger club like Liverpool we know Arsenal just lucky with previous result. Next match have chance for Arsenal get three points because faced with small club Newcastle United and I think easy to win just faced problem next two week against with Manchester United.

Coming back after successive defeats in the league is not luck but the result of hard work, I don't think it's a lucky factor when it comes to consecutive wins, because the teams they face are mostly teams who can give big teams trouble so far like Leicester, Brighton and Tottenham. Arsenal  defeat to Liverpool, because Liverpool squad is much better and they have better game tactics than Arsenal, so when a team like Westham is also able to beat Liverpool, is that luck too?
I do not think so...!!
The luck factor does exist in football, but hard work and playing tactics are the main determinants of a team victory in my opinion.

I agree with you, the good results that Arsenal got before the defeat to Liverpool cannot be said to be lucky. Because it is not easy to get up from
adversity, Arsenal showed improvement in the quality of the game and Arsenal's players also seemed to be working hard. Moreover, the Premier
League competition is the best in the world today, so it means that a weak team that plays in the Premier League can't actually be underestimated.
After all, some of the teams that were defeated by Arsenal were not all weak teams. I also think that Arsenal's defeat to Liverpool was purely down
to the quality of the players and also Jurgen Klopp's experience is much better than Arteta's. So can't blame Arteta if Arsenal lose to Liverpool and
several other big teams. I believe Arsenal can bounce back in the next game against Newcastle, because Arsenal's previous winning streak was not
due to luck, but indeed Arsenal players who wanted to work hard. Hopefully Arsenal this season can enter the top 4 and next season can return to
play in the Champions League.

There is still no official statement from the Manchester United side about the interim manager thing. But according to Fabrizio Romano, they are going to sign a contract with Ralf Rangnick on Monday. Some time before, I remember that Rangnick rejected Chelsea's for being the interim manager there. But interestingly, he is leaning towards the deal with Manchester United. I wonder what the real reason behind it is. Anyway, I wish that this agreement ends up with good results for Manchester United considering the rest of the current season.

If they should appoint Ralf rangnick is not a bad choice,  rangnick is a well experienced coach , he has worked very well in building teams. He a man who likes team work than only a particular player trying to make good effort. His pattern of formation is outstanding . I think he is the kind of coach Manchester United needs right now.

Ralf is a decent coach, but the thing is, are Manchester United's players ready to play good football, are they willing to improve and start giving their everything when they step out on the pitch of play, I know it's the duty of the coach to set up his players, but the players themselves also have to develop the desire to perform, at the moment, many of United's players play like they are not proud to be putting on their clubs colors. As Manchester United are about to hire a new manager, the players must also change their mindset and put on a winning mentality.

[KTChampions]

big surprise at manchester united...
the 63-year-old Ralf Rangnick has reached agreement with manchester united on a contract as interim coach until the end of the season. he will then act as an advisor to the red devils for two years.
all this reported by the german sports magazine kicker

Quite a logical option, I wrote that it is possible, although I assumed that it would be some kind of young coach. In such circumstances, the coach will not be under a lot of pressure and perhaps United will do it to their advantage.

The Chelsea bet looks solid, but United's odds don't look fair at 5.5. Is it possible that United, even in such a situation in which it found himself, cannot win at least one game out of 5 against Chelsea?

That oods doesnt really mean that United cant win against Chelsea, it simply means that Manchester United has a very small chance to win . Chelsea currently stands on top of the league table right now with 4 wins and 1 draw while Manchester United has only won once in the last 5 games with 4 losses. On the other hand, if you happen to bet on Manchester United then ended up winning then that the winnings should be great with that odds

I know what odds mean and why they are inversely proportional to the team's real chances of winning  
In this case, I believe that United is underestimated and the real chances of his victory are greater than those offered by the bookmakers.

[TheGreatPython]

In my view Carrick is giving something different, whether it's maybe a way of motivating the players or something else. Yesterday's match in the UCL against Villarreal, Manchester United's gameplay looked more lively from various positions, that kind of gameplay I didn't get when Ole was still a coach there. But indeed, with yesterday's victory in the UCL it was still not enough for Manchester United to beat Chelsea who were in their best form under Tuchel. So yeah, I personally believe Chelsea will still beat Manchester United with a high score too, who knows.

If you look only at the Villareal game, they won against them when Ole was the manager as well and that is not really a shocking result. I would assume that the best case for United right now is to start off with a win against Chelsea in this new era, without that type of win its going to be hard for them to prove people that Ole was the problem.

I keep saying that Ole was the main problem but Carrick is not the solution, it is basically just putting bandaid on a big scar, it is not going to hold it off. Let's wait until they get a proper manager, they are talking about a potential for Pochettino, if that really happens then we are going to see them really change, until then I do not think Carrick would make too much difference.

Newcastle has not even won a single match. Tom its going to be again another game against Arsenal who is in 5th place who has own 6 matches. And we could see Arsenal has own its game against Newcastle which happened on May 2nd May with 2:0. Newcastle should at least win this match to proof themselves. But yes Arsenal is yes far better and those who bet on Arsenal, will gain much.

i think zidane will not be coach of manchester united, he is more likely to be coach of PSG than coach of Manchester

If PSG management is serious to sign Zidane as their head coach, Zidane probably prefers to choose PSG. We all know that Zidane should follow his wife, and his wife seems to choose to stay in Paris than Manchester. Another reason, PSG has more competitive players and this club has a big ambition to win UCL trophy. I am sure it fits with Zidane who has the ability to build a team for winning the biggest football title like UCL.

Many issues with Ralf Rangnick as interim coach for Manchester United at the end this season, glad to see many Germany coach in primer league after Tuchel on Klopp have been success before, lets see will Ralf Rangnick can be new success manager for Manchester United although interim coach and hanve chance become permanent if success give tophies for United in this season.

Probably will lose by a at least two goals. I watched then yesterday, and they were absolutely dire for the majority of the match. It's lucky that the team (Villarreal) they were facing were equally as bad when it came to finishing their chances. Chelsea should absolutely destroy them if we take in consider current form, and cohesion of the two teams.

Though, Manchester United could turn it on at any given moment, they have very good players. They literally have world class players in that squad, which is why it's so funny mind boggling to see them struggling in the manor that they are.

Manchester United has all it takes to face Chelsea squarely in that match. Before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reduced the club to the level we see now, it was the likes of Martial, Rashford and Lingard that faces Chelsea and get good results, and these guys are all available. But right now, everything seems starting afresh.
If Varane will be fit for that match, Manchester United will win Chelsea. But if it's Maguire of a guy, I don't trust him a bit.

Man United has incredible player material to beat Chelsea. but I don't know what happened this season. Man United's performance was not as great as many fans expected.
If all the players are fit, I think it will be an interesting game. but I'm afraid it will be a game like against Liverpool. the strategy doesn't go well, and it's the opponent who manages to dominate the match and cut every opportunity that will go into the defense.

It will not be like the match against Liverpool.
Though there is not much repair in Manchester United team for now, they are moving with motivation and new mentality of the coach.
But the players confidence is coming back. Moreso, Chelsea is not as attacking minded as Liverpool and they do not have destroyers like Salah. So, even if they manage to win, it will be a small margin.

I am sure it fits with Zidane who has the ability to build a team for winning the biggest football title like UCL.

Complicated, it's better Zidane to Man United but it seems like from some of the news I've read he won't coach United.  If Mauricio Pochettino really wants to go to Man United of course I will wait for his debut. With PSG he is quite good, he has good coaching ability. Although they failed to win in the league last year. He has also had experience in England with Totenham, but I think the pressure at Man United will be even greater.

they are two great examples especially for tuchel who even half a season he coached directly gave the UCL title to chelsea.
maybe this is just wishful thinking even though Rangnick is not very well known and even a name that is quite foreign in mainland England but I hope he gives something that is really good to be shown following like klopp and tuchel.
on the other hand maybe Rangnick's cold hand is expected to bring a certain magic like he did to Schalke and Leipzig in the Bundesliga

I'm really looking forward to the Chelsea - United game this Sunday. I can't recall when United was such an outsider, the odds on Chelsea are a little bit over 1.50.
United played well in their last Europa League game but I expect Chelsea to do the same thing that both Liverpool and City did - have a defined gameplan, trap United in midfield and score a few easy goals.

Chelsea is tactically probably the best team in the league, United most likely the worst. It will show this Sunday for sure.

Main problem with United is that they are giving lot of spaces to their opponents to try some shots and that is where all the other teams are taking advantage of them. With the players Chelsea have I am sure there will be lot of shots from Chelsea and they will be scoring some good goals. Also Chelsea will be enjoying a good possession so not much to work out on for Manchester United unless Chelsea makes some error which we have hardly seen any this season.

Just responding to a previous post too, about Carrick in his first appearance yesterday against Villarreal. Even at the end I say, I still don't believe Manchester United with Carrick and I believe Chelsea will still win which is also possible with a high score. But after all, Carrick's work yesterday was also good because the situation was full of pressure but they managed to win there. Indeed it's just the beginning, I also still can't put my hopes too high on Carrick but if tomorrow Manchester United and Carrick are able to produce a fairly good result against Chelsea, then it is very likely that Carrick will be kept.

this is the prediction of local media in my country

with the percentage of chelsea winning matches as much as 61% while MU only 16%.
but not without reason, Chelsea currently still has a much better performance compared to united and even now they are in high confidence because indeed they in the last two matches they were able to win against leicester 3 goals without reply and against juventus in the UCL with margin goals 4.
maybe they will continue to do the same thing to united which is indeed their performance is so bad the last few weeks.

chelsea's performance now has greatly improved, and chelsea also plays very consistently, in the champions league yesterday chelsea was able to beat juventus with a landslide score of 4-0, so the meeting between chelsea and manchester united, according to my prediction, manchester united will definitely experience defeat, because very difficult for manchester united to beat chelsea..

I am not so confident of this Ralf o.
Though I have read his profile and it showed that he started coaching at early age of his career and has coached many clubs. It was even purported that he declined Chelsea's interim demand Thomas Tuchel came.
I also wish he declined Manchester United because I didn't see any of his debut in English Premier League. It has been more of German and we know there is a whole lot of difference between Dutch and English.

Newcastle still haven't made many changes and are still trying to get out of the relegation zone, with Newcastle currently being the richest club so I think even though Newcastle are winless so far but I'm still sure Newcastle will still be in the EPL next season. In the next transfer window that will probably make changes and considering the current points gap, I think there is still a lot of chance for Newcastle to get out of the relegation zone. But unfortunately, tomorrow Newcastle will play away against Arsenal which on paper of course Arsenal will win, if the three teams above get good results then obviously it will make Newcastle more difficult. But if the three teams above achieve poor results, the competition will continue for them to race out of the relegation zone.

The club situation is very bad it term of results but fortunately the gab between them and the first survival leeds isn't really big and they can recover in the next rounds but they need to be more efficient in their next matches, They have a very hard match against arsenal tomorrow and getting 1 point from this match will be a real push up
