Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Bobrox]

Perhaps going to Bayern Munich is still a possibility for Ronaldo. Because today I saw several news that Bayern Munich is ready to release Lewandowski. And they are going to sell Lewandowski to Barcelona. And so now they will be looking for a replacement for Lewandowski. Ronaldo is the perfect replacement for Lewandowski. At least 2 years he can give service to Bayern Munich.

Robert Lewandowski have become Barcelona player for next season after reach agreement both side between Bayern Munich and Barcelona management about transfer values, but depending what said by Oliver Kahn last week about Cristiano Ronaldo is not criteria for Bayern Munich looks little chance we can see Ronaldo will play on Bundesliga. How ever still have anything possibility about Cristiano Ronaldo leave or keep stay with Manchester United for next season although he still miss pre season match after United play on two match before. I think better with Cristiano Ronaldo keep stay with Manchester United and forget his chance for playing on champion league.

I would support a move for Zinchenko to Arsenal honestly. Because he can have a much more playing time if he goes there surely. I don't think that he would be the second option for Arteta. Tierney would be the substitute for him then. Manchester City didn't give a big amount of time to him last season and Zinchenko might be eager to leave because of that. If I were in their place I wouldn't behave like this against a skilled back like Zinchenko. But I think they will sell him if Arsenal make a favorable offer.

I don't think, Zinchenko will leave Manchester city in this season because their coach has promised him not to bench him in any competition for them to see how talented he is in the team. Zinchenko will definitely perform well in next season, to prove to people that he is among the best talented players in the premier league competition . Manchester city will definitely achieve next season title, because their coach is willing to introduce more tactics that will help the team to perform well in all the matches in next season. I don't think, Arsenal  president will use that kind of money to sign in Zinchenko into their team because they don't have such money in this season.

Even after being together in the last few seasons I don't see Guardiola's interest in him, at least that can be seen from the few opportunities the coach has give him to see Zinchenko on the pitch. Even in the last few seasons the club has give him the opportunity to show his talent with other clubs like PSV but there is no denying that Zinchenko finds it difficult to compete with some players like Grealish, Rodri, as a midfielder, and Walker, Cancelo, as a defender.

For someone like CR7 with such personality he posses in the world of football it's ain't easy just sitting back watching others play in the most anticipation and glorified league of champions in the world, it's really frustrating for him though.
With lewandowski now seen as a future Barcelona player hope it doesn't give him a divided attention in the field of play.

Manchester United pre season matches results seems very promising that they can able to win 2 times in a row and on those matches Anthony Martial always score goals and i think this is good for the team because for next season Manchester United have no experience striker besides him especially if Ronaldo leave and Ten Hag probably will make him as main striker although they will buy new players on that position but he considering Martial will be his high priority and also Ten Hag believe Martial will return to his top performance again

Anthony Martial's performance has been quite good in his last 2 matches and also in terms of the quality of this player I think he is also quite good, only that he had decreased his performance due to injury and rarely played minutes, if Ten Hag entrusts him next season I think he will be able to meet many people's expectations because he is a quality striker.
in this pre-season match, the Manchester United game began to show significant changes. I hope that in the future Manchester United's game can be even better when the Premier League competition is running.

I don't understand what you are saying with so many options for Ronaldo at the moment who is struggling to find a new club.
Now Manchester United are starting to act and will not let any club bring Ronaldo and the clubs you mentioned like Bayern didn't even have an interest in Ronaldo from the start and that was confirmed directly by the top brass there.

Ronaldo is a very great player no doubt and he has the ability to play well in any team he finds himself and moreover he is very hardworking. It many coaches are afraid to get him for technical reasons. But for business wise it will be a good business. This maybe because for a start, money from sales of Jersey and increased match viewing time would be able to maintain Ronaldo, but if these money sources reduce, maintaining Ronaldo would be expensive.

Again, Ronaldo is a big fish and his presence could spoil or alter the ecosystem of any club. If I were coach, I wouldn't be so fast to go for Ronaldo at his age.

In this case, when referring to business, I quite agree but for now there are some things that can't be avoided, such as when some policies that can't be denied even if it's for Ronaldo or what we know Ronaldo also doesn't pay much attention to big business for football because the target always comes first.
But with things like that it doesn't rule out business and indeed Ronaldo is one of the players who will definitely provide many benefits for the club in terms of finances

I agree, that Manchester United's game looks to be going in a better direction, even some players are starting to show qualities that were not seen last season. Ten Hag became the main actor in the change of Manchester United this time, since he joined and saw their gameplay even though it was only pre-season it was quite good. But we can't speculate with just two games, we'll see how far they will continue to improve.

[aylabadia05]

Erik ten Hag could play Eriksen simultaneously with Bruno Fernandes although both have similarities in key positions as attacking midfielders in the team and install Scott McTominay under them or in the defensive midfielder whose role is often played by Nemanja Matic.

Another option, with Eriksen joining Erik ten Hag's squad from next season, ten Hag could attach Bruno to the wing position to help Cristiano Ronaldo up front because in the attacking midfielder position there is Donny van de Beek who is suitable to play alongside the former Tottenham player.

What do you think?

Between Fernandez and Eriksen have the same position and typical games play as attacking midfielder. Looks can't play both player together on the same time, but have benwfit with Eriksen as substitutes player for Manchester United if Fernandez not on top performance or get injury. But Erik Tan Hag can play both player together as second forward position for Bruno Fernandez and give attacking midfielder for Eriksen, intersted to see what poaition get by Eriksen under Erik Tag Han scheme. Will Eriksen reach his top performance with Manchester United and give good achievement for next season?

There is some truth to it as you say if both have the same typical game. At first glance if they were played by Erik ten Hag, Manchester Unted's midfield game scheme would be like last season like the duo of Bruno Fernandes and Pogba were a little chaotic or poorly organised as Paul Pogba more often came forward so the midfield occupied by Freed and McTominay was overwhelmed in breaking the opponent's attack.

So what is the role of Donny van de Beek who is predicted to be the main player Erik ten Hag next season?

50 mil for Lewandovski? Fantastic piece of business from Bayern.

It was so obvious from the beginning as well, Barcelona is like a guy playing Texas hold'em with is cards laid out on the table.
It is a 3-year deal and he's already 34 years old - this smells like another expensive mistake. He is a great player - but it's simply too much money and the contract is too long.

EDIT: sorry, wrong thread. Had both this and the transfers one opened in parallel.

[Sirait]

with the entry of Eriksen, the MU midfield is already good, MU's next pre-season training will take place in Australia, we can see his first appearance with MU there. I'm very happy with the reshuffle that was done by ten hag, hopefully he is the next Ferguson (which many MU fans are waiting for)

It was indeed too fantastic for Lewandowski's price which in my opinion was old especially the 3 -season term contract in Barcelona which ended in Barcelona 36 years when the contract was complete.

Quoted from Fabrizio Romano that this has become final, Lewandowski will soon say goodbye to Bayern Munich players and soon join Barcelona, but this is the destination of the Xavi project who still wants Lewandowski for a long time so he has a good plan even though we doubt the old age , but it must be acknowledged Lewandowski is a productive player.

I don't think the way Erik Ten Hag will coach will be the same as Ferguson has coached Manchester United in the past, because each coach has his own strategy to apply to the team he coaches now. And Erik Ten Hag is ready to change everything for the sake of improving the performance of Manchester United which has been missing lately, one of which is by bringing in new players and also training them well to strengthen the Manchester United team next season.

@bering while the attacking side was almost perfect, the defending was really bad and I hope that Hen Tag will consider dropping Maguire and Luke Shaw and replace them with the new player’s brought. Furthermore Martial seems rejuvenated, and if he continues in this fine form then the pressure to score goals will be reduced on Ronaldo and Manchester United will be able to win more matches.

Last season every defender players were playing under their best performance especially Maguire that everytimes he played he almost did some mistakes which caused Manchester United lose and i think Ten Hag realized this weakness so that's why he attempts to buy Lisandro Martinez from Ajax but i think this not good idea too because as new player Martinez have to adapt with Manchester United although he playing well in Ajax but there is no guarantee he will be suitable for Ten Hag strategy however i was interesting to see line up while Manchester United beat Liverpool that the combination of Varane and Lindelof can guard defensive line with very good so i think for further matches Ten Hag can used them and puting Maguire on the bench

When it comes to timing i don't think Manchester Unitedhase that much time to build new players, and also because the next season is about to start. But again if the club can still sign experience players.

[TopT3ns]

now Ronaldo has many choices, there are several top European teams who want him like Chelsea and Bayern but no agreement has yet been made, if Ronaldo stays at Manchester United it is because of his own will and because of his love for Manchester United even though this team does not play in the Champions League stage next season , and I still believe that next season Ronaldo will be able to do better at Manchester United under the tutelage of coach Erik ten Hag.

I don't understand what you are saying with so many options for Ronaldo at the moment who is struggling to find a new club.
Now Manchester United are starting to act and will not let any club bring Ronaldo and the clubs you mentioned like Bayern didn't even have an interest in Ronaldo from the start and that was confirmed directly by the top brass there.

I think ronaldo should be able to think and consider what he is doing, with his age that is not young it will make it difficult for him to get a new club and I saw rumors that ronaldo chose to leave Manchester United because he couldn't work with the teammates who were there, so if my point of view is to at least stay humble and don't be too arrogant so that you can have many friends and unlike what happened to ronaldo, i'm sure ronaldo is feeling depressed and mentally disturbed a little because of this incident, it seems impossible for a professional player to get rejected from all Big club in Europe.

@bestcoins1, when @Sirait says "Hopefully he's the next Ferguson" it doesn't mean Erik Ten Hag should coach the same way Ferguson did. The point is, hopefully Erik Ten Hag can provide good success or achievement for Manchester United like in the Ferguson era in the past, meaning this is an expression of hope which of course we realize that Manchester United became chaotic after Ferguson left. Apart from that so far in the Erik Ten Hag era at least Manchester United looks great in the two pre-season matches, especially if Frenkie de Jong is successfully recruited by Manchester United, then of course Manchester United's midfield will be very good.

It's still lacking for the man united midfield, because this season the Red Devils release several midfielders, including  Pogba, Matic, and Juan Mata. Pogba and Matic are in the main squad, so I think the coach needs to find some to strengthen Manchester United's midfield

Anthony Martial will have a chance to impress Ten Hag if Ronaldo really leaves Man United. But if in the end Ronaldo still plays for Man United, I think Martial will continue to be a back-up for Ronaldo. If we look at the performance of these two players last season, Ten Hag will definitely prefer Ronaldo. Martial went to Sevilla as a loan player and he has more matches that he can participate in but his form was less than impressive and he hasn't scored a goal there yet.

In addition, there are rumors that Man United is also interested in Paulo Dybala. If the rumors are true and Man United manages to sign Dybala, then Martial's chance to play regularly will also be smaller.

Manchester United have unveiled their adidas away shirt for the 2022–2023 season, returning to their signature design with mostly wavy edges, black collar with a slight v-neck, emblem stick depicted with black and red five-beams, two of the three adidas stripes on the  the bottom of the shirt has a red crest, black centerline and off-white pattern with the Team Viewer club logo in a kit with a black finish.
The Manchester United away shirt will feature pants in black and with some of the stripes they have changed over the last year.

I'm a Cristiano Ronaldo fan for a long time, his performances in every game amaze and amaze me. Wherever he is or at any club, his appearance is like a player that no one can block. But despite Ronaldo being the greatest and most expensive player, other European clubs began to be reluctant to accept Ronaldo. maybe because of the age factor and the high salary at the CR7 tag.

There are 4 factors that are the reasons why Cristiano Ronaldo does not sell in the Transfer Market this 2022 season:

1. Salaries are too expensive.
It is clear that the salary that is priced at CR7 is very large, which is around 385,000 Pounds, or around $456,000 USD, this is what makes big clubs still think to accept it.

2. Past the Peak and Too Old
Ronaldo is past his prime and his allure has faded. Ronaldo's age is also not young anymore, currently Ronaldo is 37 years old. It will have an effect on recovery if it happens injury, because recovery will take longer due to age. Although Ronaldo is rarely injured, the risk will also be greater.

3. Game duration that must be set.
Ronaldo can't play in all matches and there is a Ronaldo game that will be determined with a minimum duration, to maintain Ronaldo's performance and avoid injury. Ronaldo will only play in certain matches. this is a big loss for the club because ronaldo as an active striker and is awaited by many people.

4. Will Fresh Retirement.
Regarding the age issue, Ronaldo will inevitably retire soon. Instead of recruiting expensive players who will soon retire, big clubs prefer to invest in young players who still have high performances.

Nevertheless, cristiano will still be a legend and be the best player in his heyday. CR7 remains the best in the hearts of his fans.

1. Is $23 million a big salary? If we consider the contract for a year and take into account the meager price for the transfer, it is practically free, even if we take into account only the cost of the name and not the player. On a name (t-shirts, etc.) the club will easily earn more money. In addition, Ronaldo's ambition (and the fact that he is already rich) will allow him to agree to a pay cut.

2. If he produces results then no one will care about age - last season with much fewer games he was the top 3 scorer in the Premier League (and playing at an average club). It is clear that he cannot be considered as a promising player, but if you talk about the here and now, then he is great.

3. These are conjectures. Rotation and rest are required for all players and Ronaldo is no exception.

4. If you hire a player for a year or two, then you probably don't care if he retires after 4 years, right? In addition, you probably forgot what prices (and competition) are now for young players who are promising, plus they can already do something now?

EDIT: sorry, wrong thread. Had both this and the transfers one opened in parallel.

Barcelona spent around €110 million to sign two players this week. But as you said I agree Lewandowski's value is quite high considering he is 34 years old. but i don't think barcelona is doing a big gamble here because the arrival of lewandowski will probably increase their merchandise sales many times. at least they will get benefits that may be beyond our expectations. I think Lewandowski is still very strong and his arrival is expected to be a substitute for the void since Messi left because there hasn't been a player who has been able to contribute so much in scoring goals since Messi left.

~indeed your post is more suitable in the spanish league thread.
