Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Lordhermes]

2 Days ago we saw the match between Manchester United Vs Liverpool, and the result was 4 - 0 for the victory of Manchester United. Each of Sancho, Fred, Martial and Facundo Pellestri scored in this match. What do you think? Is this result a sign for Manchester United to be ready for EPL matches? Will they be able to be at least in the top 3 standings?

Also seeing the performance of Darwin Nunez who was not good in this match, he even missed a golden opportunity to score a goal. What do you think about him in the EPL? does he deserve to be Jurgen Kloop's first choice?

Darwin Nunez might struggle to do well in the EPL because the English premier league is very competitive and very complicated that is why most good players from other league struggle at the EPL.And for Manchester United beating Liverpool 4-0, I only think  games have not really started fully,and that is just a preseason match that is not important.But the truth is Manchester United will do well this season than last season,because they have a good coach now and the coach has come with his own tactics and formation which might be favourable to Man-u.

Yes, it is true that the game that Manchester United lost 4-0 at the end had not really started. It's just a warm-up for both clubs to see how ready they are for next season. But as I said before, Manchester United have high expectations with their new coach, Ten Hag. However, in the last game I saw that Manchester United's game is now structured and better than before.

I don't think very much should be read into that Man U victory over Liverpool. Yes, 4-0 sounds quite comprehensive, but it has to be taken in context. It's not a competitive match, and not only is it pre-season, it's early pre-season and players are still getting fit. But the biggest reason is the players they put out, Liverpool made so many substitutions, they had over 30 different players appearing in total.

Manchester United are finally finishing their centre-back transfer with Lisandro Martinez. Arsenal seem like no longer a rival for them in this race.

Yes, with £42.5m finally Man United can bring that Ajax's defender(center back), Lisandro Martinez, in which Arsenal was also interested in this player. With this new defender, this may change the defense of Man United to be better, maybe can subtitute Maguire? But nf act, Maguire still becomes the captain again 

Btw, congratulation also to Chelsea which has a new signing from Man City's winger, Raheem Sterling.

Yes congrats to Chelsea for completing the Sterling deal. This is Todd Boehly's first official transfer at Chelsea. They have signed Sterling by paying a 56.2 million euros transfer fee and it is going to be a 5-year deal as well. I'm happy for Sterling as he was waiting for his fate to be decided this summer. He was already likely to leave and Barcelona were also interested in him some time ago. But Chelsea acted faster than everyone and finished up the deal.

It's true, Man United's game looks neater. especially in their defense and midfield. Their new coach gives new hope to the team and the fans. after one season Man United appeared with poor performance.

Another focus is Nunez's performance. he doesn't seem to be able to adapt to other players? It looks like after the game Liverpool will do a pretty big evaluation. Even if it's just a friendly match.

Manchester United are finally finishing their centre-back transfer with Lisandro Martinez. Arsenal seem like no longer a rival for them in this race. Manchester United are expected to pay 43 million pounds to sign him. After this transfer they will need to sign a midfielder also. I don't know about Frenkie de Jong yet as Barcelona are still not too willing to sell him. But if Manchester United are ready to pay the amount Barcelona want then this deal is likely to happen. But Manchester United would need to pay a sum like 85 million euros in total.

Finally we will see Maguire on the bench, .
Some source said that Barcelona has already agreed about the price and other stuff, but the big obstacle is still Frankie de Jong personal choice, he seems eager to stay in Barcelona, but then again he doesn't want any salary cut.

Manchester City might go for signing Jules Kounde in case Chelsea sign Nathan Ake from them. This would be another big signing for Manchester City actually. Because Kounde is a very skilled centre-back and he can do a bigger job than Ake in this team. He doesn't have any Premier League experience in his career though but he is already playing in the second biggest league in Europe. I don't think he would have serious issues in the Premier League as well.

[Kayeshlyn]

Don't take these games too serious, they're warm up games to get fit and ready for the new Campaign. Eric Ten Hag's a good Coach we need not argue over it. Talking about Manchester United performance, he is still not okay, as he thinks they have enough and more to offer. When the season starts, then we can judge how Liverpool and Darwin Nunez can go.

Winning the Champions League is not a one Man Job. Ronaldo moving in another Club doesn't guarantee he'll win the Champions League. As it might be another season with Juventus a wasted one hope's of winning the Champions League got all shattered in shambles. Further more, he should stay put at Manchester United.

Currently, Ronaldo has not returned to Manchester United's pre-season training session. However, this came at a time when it was evident that he was dissatisfied with the club.
He probably just went outside to check out the club for this purpose. He needs to find a good team if he wants to win the Champions League.
Although Ronaldo had problems when he first arrived, I wouldn't say he had a negative impact; however, the fact that he left Manchester United could serve as a warning to future clubs who are not willing to take risks, especially if the results are poor.

Kalidou transfer is one of the fastest transfer I have seen within this window and it shows how focused Chelsea are in their bid to garner a formidable defense line cause this is what the blues are likely known for, and it has really paid them off if you can remember UCL 2012 on how they won it based on a pretty defensive line.
As for strikers Chelsea already have, so it's just improvement on them is what should be expected and not signing of more strikers.

Chelsea will obviously be better next season because Chelsea still have the determination to win the Premier League trophy and also want to pay for the failures that have befallen him this season. I'm also very impressed with how fast Chelsea have been in getting some new players for their defense for next season.

Chelsea will want to do whatever their can to improve their performance in the next season, there have underperformed in the just-ended league season but with the new features.

This victory showed that Manchester united new manager is a talented manager that has what it takes to improve any team, and to also bring changes into the team. Manchester united defeated Liverpool 4-0 that made many people to believed that Manchester united will definitely increase their performance in next season, because their players are well organized to achieve victory from any competitions in next season to prove to their fans that they are well ready to embrace premier league title next season.

I've never considered friendly matches as important, I think it's just a warm-up so players can coordinate with other players on the team so they can look compact when the season starts.

Still, this gives Impact and gives a different impression considering that even if it's just a friendship, when you look at the names of the competing clubs, you will still see there is competition there and link it to next season, I think.
Currently, with MU's landslide victory against Liverpool, it is certain that there will be quite large expectations from football lovers because indeed now with the Ten Hag and with a suitable formation there will be hopes for MU to be more competitive next season.

Well, i can say this is an impression we all expect from Manchester United and once they are being abke to maintain such an outstanding performance then next season will be confidently dealt with, they can achieve the title only if they have this as a consistent win on every match played, i also believe that Liverpool as well will still maintain their delivery capacity to remain top best regardless of times they played often, more opportunities lies on them bith against next season but only the smartest take good advantage against the other.

[cryptofrka]

Chelsea is really firing on all cylinders. Makes sense though, their whole defence is changing going into next season.

With Koulibaly and Ake all but agreed, seems like Kounde will be the 3rd incoming defender. With Sterling already there - I have to say that on paper they look really strong.

Still - they will need time to gel - especially in defence. If they don't start winning early - City and Liverpool will take advantage.

So far I see chelsea is still a big fan of Jules Kunde. And the possibility for Sevilla to let him go is start to appear with Sevilla's deal with Galatasaray to sign Marcao, added with the news that Fenerbahce centre-back Min-jae Kim has get an offer from Sevilla, it's a hint they are ready to let Jules Kounde. And I'm more sure he will join chelsea and manchester city will stay with Nathan Ake

By the way, after releasing Sterling and Gabriel Jesus Man City haven't see a new striker besides Haaland? Could it be that they won't be looking for striker anymore?

[Luzin]

It's interesting to have a big club in the EPL. Man city dumped a lot of its players at one league clubs. Sterling to chelsea and Jesus to Arsenal. The two of them needed a lot of minutes to play, so it was normal for them to leave. These two players are mature and experienced players. They are not young players anymore, so accepting them is naturally very profitable. So I think Arsenal will be better next season.

While Man United, they didn't get their player target until recently. De Jong has not reached an agreement yet, the new player from Feyernood is Malacia, and Erikson from Brentford,  besides that many are from the Man united academy so he is still young. But in the game in Bangkok yesterday their game was pretty good.

This match is no more serious than the usual two-way training game inside the club. At the moment, it is not even completely known in which squas teams will start the season, so it makes no sense to pay attention to such news. However, I have already seen funny memes on this topic (the face of Klopp who releases the main players with a score of 0-3 and ends up with 0-4  ).

Nathan Aké still has a contract for three more seasons and also, according to rumors Chelsea will at least get Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli. But yes indeed, if Chelsea really will sign Nathan Aké then of course Chelsea's defense next season will be stronger if the two players play together. But instead of waiting for Nathan Aké to leave first, I personally believe Manchester City will still sign Jules Koundé because of his young age so it will be good for Manchester City in the long run.

When did EPL doesn't have any big clubs?
Sterling wasn't really good even Guardiola put him on his primary position e.g. Left winger, Foden is more better than him, so it doesn't problem to sell him. While Jesus was Right winger primary position, but Guardiola often put him on center forward. As we can see most of his matches, he was have better perform when he play on Right winger, but the problem is they have Mahrez who really the best for Right winger since he's a hardcore on that's position.

Since they have Haaland to replace Jesus, so it doesn't really a bad move. Considering Jesus can be play as substitute player, it doesn't wrong to keep him too, but like you said maybe he want to play as starting line up.

It's true that the Manchester United transfer didn't give them a big name, not that I don't think the official players are qualified, but now they don't seem to be getting that. There is still time for them to bring in players who will give color to their game. I hope they succeed in inaugurating other players in the remaining time.

it's true Jules Koundé is a player who has very good prospects for the future, Manchester City will certainly have a very valuable asset for the future, because in quality Jules Koundé is playing very well even though he is only 23 years old.
while Chelsea have been very close to Koulibaly, Chelsea have been very serious in their search for a centre-back since the start of the transfer and now they are just a few minutes away from being able to get Koulibaly from Napoli and with that of course no one doubts that Chelsea's defense will be stronger because Koulibaly is a player. The experienced base and have a very good defense that has been shown in the last few seasons with Napoli.

Manchester City is not a team that is scared of competition. Normally you'll have clubs send there player off to different leagues where they would have lite chances of meeting them on the pitch and you know, they both (club and player) have got a history history themselves and the vulnerabilities to exploit in tactics but, Manchester City have more than it takes to win any game in the EPL and so, having both the players right in the league doesn't make much a difference for them. It was even nice of them to have thought better of the players and dealed within the league with teams that could actually offer them so chance at a trophy. There playing time is not to worry about with these new teams @R. Sterling to Chelsea and G. Jesus to Arsenal.
