Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[swogerino]

It looks like Chelsea are after Ronaldo and Lewandowski both now but they must be intending to sign one of them now. Honestly my choice would absolutely be Lewandowski if I can buy him. But it seems like a more difficult deal as Barcelona and PSG also seem to be in this race for him. When it comes to Ronaldo his current wage is pretty huge and I would hesitate to buy him at this point. He had a good season the last time in the Premier League but there is a risk that he might not adapt to Chelsea too.

I don't think, Chelsea is still after cristiano Ronaldo because Manchester united coach has spoken yesterday that cristiano Ronaldo will remain with them till next season before they can release him to any team that is ready to afford the money. I believe, Chelsea will like to sign in Lewandowski because many teams what to have Lewandowski in their team in this season so that they will have full confidence of winning next season title to make their fans happy again. I guess, Chelsea president will do everything possible to bring in Lewandowski in this season, because he is among the talented strikers that know how to change game for their favour in any competitions.

Lewandowski is no longer a talented player but a senior player, a talented player is a young player. Also, Barcelona are not in the race to sign Lewandowski, but it is Lewandowski himself who wants to play for Barcelona. If the race to sign Lewandowski was purely meaning that there was no strong desire from the player himself but rather an offer from the large bids made from interested teams, then of course Barcelona would lose early because their finances were in disarray.

As long as I would love to see him in the Premier League the fact that he will most probably choose Barcelona is a good move for him.It is because in England maybe he will have difficulties to score as many goals while in Spain he should have not.

It is a good move from Lewandowski to go to Barcelona despite their financial problems.Lewandowski has no financial problems as he has earned enough money  so most probably he want to play with Barcelona until the end of his career at a league which honestly  in my opinion is much stronger than the Bundesliga in Germany.For his career this is a good move as he needs to show to the world that he cannot only score goals with a team like Bayern Munchen in Bundesliga but he also can score goals with a team like Barcelona in a much stronger league.I think it is his personal objective this one and honestly it should be because when I argue with friends I always tell them Lewa does not deserve the golden ball because he plays in an easy league compared to other candidates.

If he could prove this in the Premier League though that would have been the best scenario,but hope dies last.

Currently the possibility of speculation and clarity on Ronaldo seems to be finished.
Manchester United have said that they will not sell Ronaldo anywhere and Eric Ten Hag has said that he does want Ronaldo in his plans for next season.
I think this is going to be very difficult for Chelsea right now, regardless of what Ronaldo wants to compete for, United will still have a say there.

Erik Ten Hag has previously said that Ronaldo is part of his plans for the next season. But Ronaldo is not interested in staying with Manchester United now, as he is keen to perform in the Champions League. However, the United management is not interested in leaving Ronaldo right now, because Ronaldo is the main striker in the squad at the moment. If he sells Ronaldo now, Manchester United will not be able to find a suitable replacement.

I think that Cristiano Ronaldo can still be talked to to stay at Manchester United, even though his desire to leave is so great now. In the end he will definitely meet the person who contributed during his career to be able to stay with Manchester United.
That can happen, because even at the beginning the rumors about a move to Manchester City foundered after many important people played behind him.

Lewandowski is no longer a talented player but a senior player, a talented player is a young player.

How can? Did Lewandowski lose his talent because of getting older? It sounds strange to me. As far as I know, a professional player may lose his speed or endurance but he never loses his ability, talent, or skills. On the other hand, not all young players are talented, many of them are only average players. So, I never determine talents based on the age of a player.

Barcelona are not in the race to sign Lewandowski, but it is Lewandowski himself who wants to play for Barcelona.

Barcelona is clearly in the race of signing Lewandowski. If they are not in the race, they won't negotiate the transfer fees.
Sure, Lewandowski stated to play in Barcelona, and Barcelona also wants him to be a part of their squad.

Right from the last season christiano Ronaldo is the only hope Manchester United had, even when the season ended they were still having hope on him that he would be part of the squad that will revive the team back again. Him later not having interest to remain in the club is a big shock to Erik Ten Hag and Manchester united fans, if Ronaldo change is mind to stay in Manchester United it will do a lot to club, even some of his team mate rely on him to make Manchester United performance better next season.

Now the Ronaldo uncertainty needs to be resolved. Wherever he's going, go now. I don't think you have a future at United. This team needs to come to its senses, and this will take many years. Some players are bigger than teams. Because Ronaldo is such a football player, Manchester can no longer handle Ronaldo. Because Ronaldo is a football player who wants success. So it should be.

[Bobrox]

They need quite a number of defensive signings because speculations say Alonso and Azpiliqueta are also linked with joining Barcelona. I don't know how serious that news is but if it is true they will need to be replacing four to five players at the back with Rudiger and Christensen already joined Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively. The deal with Manchester City is still stalling in fees and finding a replacement for Ake. Hopefully, they will get one and let Ake join Chelsea.

Chelsea have been success add forward line right now after arriving Raheem Sterling from Manchester City with £45million transfer values pay by Chelsea, I think Chelsea still not stop for the next transfer exactly with defender position. Loss two defender after not extended contract and as regular position I think Chelsea will looking and serious with getting defensive player. Nathan Ake as good deal with Chelsea exactly he was Chelsea part last several season before moving to Manchester City. But not enough with Nathan Ake only because last time Chelsea loss two defender and need to find two defensive players.

[JeWay]

I do not understand your logic. Senior players are not talented? I would say every star player is talented. How do they become experienced if they are not talented players? From what I've heard about Lewandowski's transfer, he is no longer interested in staying at Bayern Munich. He wants to take on new challenges. And he is not interested in playing in the Bundesliga. But now he may decide to stay at Bayern Munich after resolving the issue with Bayern Munich.

Lol. that seems pretty confusing. Lewandowski has everything meaning he has various advantages and is already a football legend. everything includes talent, seniors, professional players and everything is already in him. Lewandowski has indeed attracted the attention of several big European clubs because he has signaled that he will leave Bayern in this summer window, but until now there is no certainty what will happen to Lewandowski in this summer window because several sources say Lewandowski will remain at Bayern .

[icalical]

Lewandowski is no longer a talented player but a senior player, a talented player is a young player.

You do know that Lewandowski was 2nd top scorer in the last Champions League right? and of course the Top Scorer of bundesliga last year, 5 years in a row.

As long as I would love to see him in the Premier League the fact that he will most probably choose Barcelona is a good move for him.It is because in England maybe he will have difficulties to score as many goals while in Spain he should have not.

It is a good move from Lewandowski to go to Barcelona despite their financial problems.Lewandowski has no financial problems as he has earned enough money  so most probably he want to play with Barcelona until the end of his career at a league which honestly  in my opinion is much stronger than the Bundesliga in Germany.For his career this is a good move as he needs to show to the world that he cannot only score goals with a team like Bayern Munchen in Bundesliga but he also can score goals with a team like Barcelona in a much stronger league.I think it is his personal objective this one and honestly it should be because when I argue with friends I always tell them Lewa does not deserve the golden ball because he plays in an easy league compared to other candidates.

If he could prove this in the Premier League though that would have been the best scenario,but hope dies last.

I totally agreed, Lewandowski in EPL would be very entertaining, but the choice to go to barcelona is safer. I don't want to say that Premiere League is better than La Liga but definitely La Liga will be much more suitable for Lewandowski. Moreover younger and cheaper striker would be more suitable for Chelsea, since they already buy a lot of players in this transfer season.

[Coyster]

I don't think that City would really need a big replacement for Ake. I mean he played like maybe 20 games all year, and most of them were games that did not matter that much. City must have some young defenders in their system that could replace him right?

Ake is indeed not a starter in Manchester City, and he didn't play too many games last season, but mind you that some of the games he played were important ones that a youngster might have struggled in, Ake was very important for Pep when all of City's center backs were injured (except Laporte), and he had to step in both in the left back position and center back for some of City's EPL title run-in and CL knock out games too. I understand what you are saying with Ake not being too important, but i think he should be replaced, and City are going to replace him with the money with which they will sell him for, so that is fair enough, if they end up not selling him, then they will not buy anyone.

[BuNga_cute]

Although injury marred or reduced the consistent world class performance of N'Golo Kanté but selling him would be a great blunder. Chelsea might have other good defensive midfielders but the influence of Kante on the midfield cannot be overemphasized. His strength and inestimable stamina has not reduced. If Chelsea let Arsenal clinch him, then he would be a great asset to the Gunners. Chelsea has been very unlucky in the transfer market this season, hence it is very important they keep or retain the players they currently have.     

Indeed, injuries sometimes make players decrease in quality. That's commonplace. It should be that if Kante gets into trouble it's possible he can get back to the best game. But also can he will not perform well. So there are two possibilities that will happen.
Maybe half a season of seeing him was enough for Tuchel to provide a chance. But at the moment I think it is still not appropriate to sell it. I really like him because he never gets tired of running.

Although Mikel Arteta is currently looking for a defensive midfielder, it is quite surprising to hear rumors that Arsenal want to sign Kante.
Because we know Kante is one of Chelsea's mainstay players, so I'm not sure Chelsea will sell Kante. Although it must be admitted that
Kante's performance had declined in the previous season, and even Kante's contract was only one year remaining, but that doesn't mean
Chelsea will let Kante move to Arsenal.

I think Chelsea management realizes that Kante's presence is still needed and will most likely extend Kante's contract. So rumors about Kante
moving to Arsenal are very unlikely to come true. But if it does come true that Kante was sold to Arsenal, I'm sure Chelsea will regret their decision.
After all, Kante is a player who is quite good at contributing to Chelsea, unfortunately an injury has made Kante's performance to decline.
But I believe now Kante is recovered and ready to play and show his best form to help Chelsea win the Premier League trophy.

[CryptocurencyKing]

After Arsenal's interest started for N'Golo Kante, I see that Manchester United have also decided to intervene. Kante is one of the best midfielders of the Premier League now. Aging doesn't change much for him for now. Chelsea wouldn't like to lose a player like him because this would cause them to be weakened in defense more. By the way I understand Manchester United's interest too as they are already after Frenkie de Jong too. They must be aiming to sign one of these players for sure.

Why do Arsenal and Man United try to sign Kante? They must know he is a key player for Chelsea, it is almost impossible to sign him. As far as I know, Chelsea has no other defensive midfielder that has the same capability as Kante. Even if they have Jorginho, Jorginho still can't play at the same level as Kante. I am really sure that Chelsea won't lose another key player after they lost Rudiger. Chelsea must be aware that they must keep the quality and the quantity of their squad if they still want to compete for the title in the next season.

This rumours appears because until now Kante still not renew his contract so people start to speculated about his future and some people thought Kante will leave Chelsea and also Arsenal currently still looking for new defensive midfielder but i think it is will remain rumour because until now Chelsea has no plan will sell Kante although last season he has Decline performance because of injured but Tuchel personally was satisfied to his performance and next season Tuchel still utilized Kante to strengthen their midfield side

There’s no truth in N’golo Kante's move to Arsenal. I know that Arsenal still see midfield as an area to improve on but Kante isn’t an option. Although his contract expires next season but I don’t see him joining Arsenal. Arteta is seeking a younger defensive-minded midfielder that will serve as cover for Thomas Partey next season. Kante is 31, he had spells on the bench amid a knee problem last season. That’s not the player that a club that’s building would want to sign. Besides there’s Thomas Partey, a proper defensive midfielder, so I don’t see the need for Kante. Also he is the second paid player in Chelsea after Lukaku, Arsenal would not offer him what Chelsea pays currently.

Somewhat you're correct if Arteta isn't favor to sign a middle age or old player since their past players in was full of young players. But actually a middle age or old player aren't that bad since it's depends on the player how serious he's to maintain his stamina and body to compute with younger player. Take a look how Ronaldo who already 37 years old still become the best striker/winger at this year, his name doesn't appeared too much because he's lose. But if you see the statistic and the contribution, you will see Ronaldo was already giving 30% performance from the whole statistic.

[Jody.Drummer]

One of a series of pre-season tours, Manchester United and Liverpool, they meet in a game that is currently underway. I don't expect which club will be the winner, but more technically how they play.
So far (first half) as expected, Liverpool fielded a lot of their second player, while Manchester United tried to implement the game under the coach, Ten Hag. So far I have seen progress at Manchester United even though their opponent (Liverpool) is not with the main players. The philosophy that Ten Hag will apply to Manchester United is slightly open seeing this match.

Manchester united Vs Liverpool scores 3-0 this is unbelievable to me that Liverpool is yet to get a goal and even up to a score line of 3-0 in the first though Liverpool did not use much of their main players but let's see how this second half is going too play out if Liverpool side is going to reinforce to try to get a goal , The Manchester united side I see coordination within the players .

[Altryist]

 Eric ten Hag introduced a whole list of new rules to the team, most of them related to discipline, can’t be late for training, drink alcohol a few days before the match, an individual diet for each player, and so on. But maybe what worked for ten Hag at Ajax may not work at Manchester United, because in  MU more stellar players. Mourinho also tried to establish strict discipline in the team, but the result was not very good. Erik ten Hag is a different person and it would not be right to compare him with someone, especially since he turned to the players and asked, if they had any questions to contact him directly and not to their agents, which already implies closer contact with the players.

A good start for Manchester United to beat Liverpool and in the first half the score became 3-0 through goals from Jadon Sancho in the 12th minute, Fred in the 30th minute and Martial in the 33rd minute. It looks like the goals will add up in the second half and Liverpool will also score.
I hope Mohamed Salah is played in the second half to make the game more interesting and the difference in all stats in my opinion is balanced.

Erik Ten Hag is quite open in the complaints that are applied to his discipline but this will still be strict so he can supervise even more ideal players, the disciplinary rules that Erik Ten Hag applies I think will be quite effective and have an influence on players so that he can ensure that if there are complaints from players, they can be discussed how to fix them.

Btw, Manchester United won against Liverpool 4-0 with 10 minutes remaining, this pre-season game in Bangkok (Thailand) was a good start for Erik Ten Hag to start his career.

[aylabadia05]

There have been 4 goals created in the match between Manchester United vs Liverpool which was held in Bangkok in the Bangkok Century Cup tournament. This match became a testing ground for all players from both teams from England. Since the early minutes, Erik ten Hag started the main squad used last season. While Jurgen Kloop 80% use the services of young Liverpool players. It was only in the +60 minute that Kloop played main players like Mo Salah to Liverpool's new recruit, Darwin Nunez.

Of all the Manchester United players, Zidane Iqbal and Erik Bailly who performed very well. Both played a role that made Erik ten Hag's squad able to make the score 4-0.

[Woodie]

Why do I get the feeling that Pogba placed a bet on Manchester United to lose against Liverpool in the Bangkok cup lol...sorry couldn't hold myself back after I saw him refuse to sign a United shirt in italy.

Hehe I'm not surprised if he actually bet on the match. The refusal to sign that United shirt is expected.

It's not like the Man United payers have any choice right? I mean their performances in the last season lead to a dismal result so they may just agree to a system change now starting with their pre-match activities. I imagine Pogba to be complaining about this but he's gone so that's one less problematic player.
