Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[hahay]

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

https://metro.co.uk/2022/07/14/man-utd-reach-agreement-with-barcelona-over-frenkie-de-jong-transfer-16998658/

Speculation about the transfer of De Jong does not seem to have found an end point and there continues to be a tug-of-war between Barcelona and De Jong, from some media saying that Barcelona and Manchester have actually reached an agreement but it seems that the problem now comes from De Jong who seems reluctant to move from Barcelona but also don't want to cut salaries, besides that according to Fabrizio Romano, Even though the agreement between Manchester United and Barcelona has been established for 85 million euros, it is precisely now that both parties are still hampered by personal requirements player, so I think we will see the De Jong transfer saga not will end in the near time.

There's still time, that's true but time won't wait for them any longer. Manchester United have spent a lot of time in the transfer process at the moment and that has caused concern among fans. I think the fans weren't happy with the way they negotiated with the players and now they're being judged slow on that.

So far they haven't got a big name to strengthen the team, and I think this is a weakness for Manchester United. I'm sure we won't see a lot of new names in the team this season, and I think that will make Manchester United weaker than the rest of the competition.

I was wondering if Man United actually plan on keeping him after releasing a lot of players hehe. I'm pretty sure many fans will be disappointed if he's still part of the squad next season but they may at least find it a compromise if the club has better defenders coming in. Let's see if starting from the bench lit a fire in his belly.

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.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62141591

Am not disputing the fact that United's 4:0 win against Liverpool was a friendly match and Liverpool's manager Jurgen Klopp also did so many changes in his starting lineup, but there was a bit of change in the performance of Manchester United players. Regardless of the match and how many changes were made nobody is overrating the tactical display seen in the United squad but the victory will serve as a morale boaster to the team and that is what Manchester United really needs this season. With the fitness I saw in the United team, I believe they will do better that last season.

Manchester United already have a star player and I don't think they need that much anymore, now we just have to believe in the new Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag and so far they have been doing really well it's starting to show in their pre-season tour game. in Bangkok some time ago.
the number of big-name players does not guarantee the success of the team but players who match the strategy and tactics given by the coach are what Manchester United have to recruit for now and so far they have done that and there are some that are being worked on.

How many star players do you mean, Are they Ronaldo, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Bruno Fernandes and some others? Do you think that's enough to win the title?

I think Manchester United still need more star players if they are to win titles and stop Manchester City's dominance. All the players I mentioned will not be enough and you have to be sure about it. Compared to Manchester United's best squad with Liverpool and also Chelsea, these two teams couldn't completely stop City's thirst for titles. So I think you are wrong to say Manchester United don't need more star players to win the title and I think that is a must.

the number of big-name players does not guarantee the success of the team but players who match the strategy and tactics given by the coach are what Manchester United have to recruit for now and so far they have done that and there are some that are being worked on.

No, and I'm not going to say either. But imagine Manchester City without star players and the right coach, are you sure you can win 4 titles in the last 5 seasons? Star players do not guarantee titles, but at least they will increase the team's chances of winning titles and achieving their goals.

The effect of the Ten Hag has already begun to be seen in the Friendlies match in bangkok, a big win over Liverpool gave Manchester United new hope when competing in official competitions. Ten Hag managed to mix the team perfectly, although the positive results in bangkok have not been able to prove what Manchester United's next move will be, but this victory is a sweet start for Manchester United with their new coach.

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 seems to focus on improving the back line in the transfer market this summer. After all, they have lost both Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen together. Chelsea's crisis at the back is quite worrying.  Chelsea must focus on improving their defense. Currently, Chelsea only leaves Thiago Silva as an experienced centre-back.

According to the news, Chelsea have already made their choice to Koulibaly. And I think Koulibaly is the right player to cover up the centre-back crisis that Chelsea is experiencing. In addition, it is reported that Chelsea are also still trying to catch Nathan Ake from Manchester City. The Blues are clearly not done moving in the transfer market.

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, you're right, it's just a friendly match that aims to find out how far the potential of each player. Talking about Manchester United, how confident are you that they will play better than last season? Can just bringing in a new manager change them for the better? in the last season, they managed to finish in 6th place, and that's been very good (IMO). We don't know what will happen next season, Manchester United could even be in a position that is not better than last season.

In this case, apart from heating up the engine, the players are here to see which formations and schemes are suitable.
On the other hand, it is quite natural in this case to replace almost all of the players there because it is like a test to see how the players on the field are too.
Actually it looks good to judge each other between the two clubs but it seems Liverpool only take this as a fun match.

I'm pretty sure many fans will be disappointed if he's still part of the squad next season but they may at least find it a compromise if the club has better defenders coming in. Let's see if starting from the bench lit a fire in his belly.

He has a pretty large contract and a long one so i think he will be here for a long time. No body also dosent want to buy him or even get him for a lower fee. He played so bad that no body wants him so i feel kind of sad for him that he made so many mistakes

[JeWay]

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.

Erik hopes ronaldo can stay and they will get through next season together. Erik has a pretty tough task in his first season coaching Manchester United because there are several targets that must be achieved with Manchester United next season, one of which is maybe Erik should be able to bring Manchester United into the top 4 of the standings next season, so Erik hopes that Ronaldo can work with him. the latest news today is that tuchel is no longer interested in signing ronaldo in this season transfer window and this may have dispelled all the rumors regarding chelsea and ronaldo.

United fans don't like Harry Maguire. Also, a lot of people troll Harry Maguire. Because he makes a lot of mistakes and misses easy opportunities. Even then, United's new coach Ten Hag still wants to rely on Harry Maguire. So next season we will see Harry Maguire in the Manchester United squad.

Pre season match I think not really important what ever result actually with Liverpool not really serious faced after defeating by Manchester United, I think just prepare for team formation next season and pre season match always give chance with not regular position player. I think match between Manchester United vs Liverpool last several days as commercial for both team, they know South East Asia exactly with Thailand have fantastic fans and Liverpool or Manchester United there just try to be close with their fans, what ever result is not matter but how commercial benefit earn by both team.

Maguire had been retained as Man Utd captain so that put the speculations of being confined to the bench to rest, Erik Ten Hag had name him as the captain for next season and I very sure he will command a regular starting shirt in the team, though his performance last season was very poor and very not encouraging while majority of their fans are disappointed with his performances despite the huge fees paid for his signing from Leceister City, however with their new manager in helm of affairs, I hope to watch a reinvigorated Maguire marshalling and coordinating Man Utd defence line next season.
