Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[wiss19]

Currently there are few teams in the English Premier League who are among the contenders to win the Premier League title. A few days ago, Manchester United have already released Ronaldo in their team, but they have many teams Balanced. There are some other teams who are performing much better than EPL. I think one of the EPL teams will take the Champions League trophy this season

Don't have high expectations from the start for this because of the fact that only 2 clubs can talk a lot, namely City and Liverpool and even then they have to admit the superiority of Real Madrid.
Good performance in the EPL are clubs in other leagues such as the Bundesliga, La Liga or Ligue 1 sitting idle? Of course not they are also currently improving their clubs in their respective leagues.

In last season, we have two top contenders for title as Chelsea was also good, but sadly they chock at wrong time and give space to these two, but now this season is going to be special for many like we have good quality players at Chelsea and Tottenham which is very good because now we are going to have new standard and quality performance from top 5 or 6 clubs which all are doing good and having their desire for staying at top with this all I am feeling English clubs are still far ahead in quality from many other leagues specially Germany and France because these both have just one team each and others are having big gape of quality which is hard to compete as they have no sources for this all.

But in next season, we are going to have some good challenge from La Liga and Italy Serie A because here also few teams are working on good strategy for staying into top and having some good intention for Champions League as well.

I feel the transfer market getting tighter as it closes. Unlike at the beginning of the transfer market, most teams seemed relaxed in finding the desired player. After the period Haaland and Nunez officially became part of the English Premier League, the contestants began to move quickly. Chelsea for example, now they are the busiest team I have seen compared to other teams.

Besides that, Tottenham are also no less busy with Chelsea, it can be see from some names associated with Tottenham transfers this season, such as defender Piero Hincapie who has attract the interest of Antonio Conte, even strikers like Zaniolo have also can not be separated from the target of Tottenham this season. But I noticed Conte see to be a bit more focus on finding defenders, if you look at the performance from last season there is an improvement in Tottenham's defense this season, I see from the total goals conceded during the Premier League matchs

Tottenham Hotspur will be a serious title challenger team with Antonio Conte. Last season with the squad as it was, Antonio Conte managed to bring Tottenham Hotspurs to finish in fourth position in the Premier League standings. Now, Conte has bought several players to strengthen the existing team in order to win trophies. Now Tottenham can be said to have a complete squad. And I'm sure there will be a lot of surprises this season.

Why are you so sure about this, is it true that having new players there will be a guarantee? I do not think so.
What I mean is that in this case there has been quite a significant progress when Conte was coaching at Tottenham now but this will only be limited to that because it is very difficult to be a challenger in a league which is very tight in this regard because of course the other big teams are far superior compared to that with them.

Chelsea  new only brought in Koulibaly for a defensive position while what we know is that Chelsea have lost 2 important defenders this season, and even now it is reported that Azpilicueta will also leave in the near time to Barcelona, ​​so Tuchel automatically has a tough job to close the big hole in the current defense of chelsea, previously chelsea had targeted De Ligt to cover the hole in defense but unfortunately they failed to get De Ligt, even though if De Ligt could be part of the chelsea squad next season of course they would have a pretty solid defensive wall, but now Tuchel must working hard and racking my brain to be able to get another strong defender in the transfer market so that he can become a mainstay in the chelsea defense line next season

Yes, now Chelsea is hit by a defender crisis. But the presence of Koulibaly has made Tuchel a little relieved. But Tuchel also has to look for another experienced defender, because at the moment Chelsea don't have that many options in that sector. In addition, the tight playing schedule will also be a serious obstacle for Chelsea if they don't fix it quickly.

The transfer market is getting interesting by the day,and as a matter of fact,Premier league champions Manchester city have made some reasonable transfers and are still looking forward to adding more players to their team.
We can actually call Haaland's transfer the transfer of the summer.He was really good at Dortmund and pressures will be on him to deliver at the Etihad stadium.We all wait for how the season will look like when the summer is over

Manchester City is already champions, and now they are going to defend their title with this they are also having their eyes on Champions League which is most desired title they have never won and trying their best for last many years hopefully now as they are working on their squad they could be in driving seat because their all strategy is going for Champions League and if Haaland is having better results in this then surely we are going to watch this wonder kid as new star in soccer world after Ronaldo and Messi due because he has done good job at Borussia Dortmund and now having his new club which is also looking for good performance from him at Etihad Stadium.

Liverpool also have made an enquiry for Ajax right winger Antony who are being chased by Manchester United at the same time. I wasn't expecting him to be desired by this many big teams in this transfer window honestly. He has a potential for sure but he still needs to prove his quality more in my opinion. By the way I don't know if Liverpool really need him now. They have Salah above all else and they must be thinking of him as Salah's substitute. Harvey Elliott is there for that too actually. Let's see if they will make an offer.

Liverpool is just scared of their performance next year and Klopp no longer understands his team after Mane left. Mane was a huge part of the team, his departure created a big vacuum. And in the quest to filling the vacuum Liverpool is making advances to any available good player. That was how they over bought Darwins. Actually Liverpool is supposed to calm down and organise their team, they still have good players available in the team.

If Azpilicueta will go to Barcelona then Chelsea will have a hole in their defence. So far they can count on their existent players but they will risk to not be as competitive as Arsenal and Spurs without counting City and Liverpool.
For now, they offered €65m for Sevilla to bring Kounde, not sure about the rumours of de Jong, Neymar and the departure of Werner and Barkley but for sure there is still many things to do and players to bring in Chelsea according to Tuchel.

Maybe Liverpool's target of targeting Antony from Ajax is not too hasty, they are just trying to make an offer because the transfer window is still open. Now Klopp has got a new attacking trio. Losing Mane of course will not affect the team as a whole. It's just that Klopp has to give a large portion of play to his new players during pre-season.

Amazing thing really happened this morning. Woke up this morning and opened my Twitter, all I saw trending is #KoundeIsBlue. It's rather obvious that Blues fans really need Kounde in Stamford bridge this summer but it seems Barcelona are winning the race to sign the centre back. However, other big teams are also interested in signing the player. Therefore Chelsea have to act as fast as possible in order to avoid losing him to another club.

I'm actually happy with this but on the other hand I'm still quite optimistic about the offer made by Chelsea.
As far as I know at the moment Chelsea are still in a bid of 47 million (when I saw the latest news) and obviously this is still very small to what Sevilla want.
At the moment there is some information that says Chelsea and Kounde are getting closer to an agreement, but I still find it quite difficult if Chelsea don't raise the offer.

There is no doubt recently as Chelsea are working on transfers it's going to be very interesting season for title race because with their strategy and working on transfers most chances they are going to be tough to beat and Barcelona already ruined their few transfers which is surely going to be bad for them but now as they are working on Kounde they need to be active and punctual because if they are going to have this player from Sevilla then surely they are going to be more strong and better for title and Champions League race.

Even again here Barcelona is favorite for signing this player, but Chelsea is also trying their best with some increase in bid, and also they are talking on different sources as well which is showing how they are interested and trying their best for having Kounde in their team for next season.

Anthony would probobly go to Man Utd rather then Liverpool due to their coach . Because he worked with him in Ajax. Ten Hag o most trying to bring the entire Ajax team to Man Utd. But still Liverpool is in the champions league but i dont know if he would have room to play there

Arsenal and Chelsea will playing at friendly tournament on  Florida cup tomorrow on United States and here is the schedule

Orlando City vs Arsenal
Charlotte FC vs Chelsea

I saw it is available to bets and here is the current odds for them

Arsenal @1.24
Chelsea @1.20

Both of teams had low odds but as the favourite i think Arsenal and Chelsea will win the match so this easy money

Arsenal are looking sharp and in good form in their pre season games, having won two games in a row, they will be looking to continue their winning streak to 3 wins in a row when they play Orlando city and i think it is a win game for the gunners with the level of form they are on. Chelsea also are looking good  but a lil shaky at the moment. Charlotte is a small side and Chelsea will be having the upper hand against this side so a win is likely for the London club also.

I understand that the season is still open and any club can make advances on any player they want. But for a club to make an advance means they are totally or partially interested in the player. And for a club like Liverpool to make an advance for a player that Manchester United is also chasing means reducing the chances of Manchester United in getting the player. Is a game or how it ought to be?

The Tottenham squad last season was not a weak team, I mean the Tottenham squad had 2 star players in attack. Just look at Kane and Son, they were quite sharp bombers last season. especially now that Conte has brought in Richarlison this summer, of course Tottenham's front line will be very calculated next season. I might agree with what you say Tottenham are a team with a lot of passion under Antonio Conte. Talking about title challengers next season may not hurt to mention Tottenham name in the ranks of strong challengers. I hope that Richarlison presence can be a deadly trio in Tottenham's attack.

tottenham hotspurs have confirmed the signing of fc middlesbrough defender Djed Spence on a 5-year deal
the transfer fee amounts to almost €15 million... plus various bonus payments

Tottenham hotspurs have really done good trying to improve the squad. It's not so easy getting up to five talented players in one window and Tottenham have gone against odds to pull some deals their way this summer. Djed Spence to Tottenham is a good deal, he is young, physical, has a fantastic successful tackle rate and will be a signing for Spurs on the right side of the defense. Arsenal also had interest in the player but Spurs were able to get him to sign so it's good news for them. Hopefully,he will bring the kind of quality they have been seeking for in that position.

I know Antonio Conte will do a whole lot more strengthening before the window closes and he is known to want his top targets in before the start of the season. And now he has just added a very good one. It’s  a very good business for Tottenham. Adding another young talent to the wingback position. At least he will compete with Matt Doherty and Emerson Royal to be the right wing-back under Antonio Conte. Spence was one of the standout players in the Championship last season at Nottingham Forest and helped the club achieve promotion after 23 years in the lower divisions. I expect him to replicate that form in Tottenham.

Conte has done a good Job in the transfer market for Tottenham this summer, who would have thought Tottenham will get a player like Richarlison this summer but thanks to Conte's strategies and eye for good players. The team looks even more strengthened with the acquiring of Nottingham's right back Spence, he is a young and physical player who can hold the lines at the right wing and will create competition for Emerson and Doherty next season. Tottenham now looks strengthened and ready for the coming season.

Yes, now Chelsea is hit by a defender crisis.  But the presence of Koulibaly has made Tuchel a little relieved.  But Tuchel also has to look for another experienced defender, because at the moment Chelsea don't have that many options in that sector.  In addition, the tight playing schedule will also be a serious obstacle for Chelsea if they don't fix it quickly.

Chelsea isn't experiencing a crisis of defenders, they have 12 defenders. They also have got a replacement for Rudiger, they already signed Koulibaly. I think they have no problem with their defense line right now. Have you checked the current squad of Chelsea? I think you need to check it first before you judge them in a crisis of defenders. Anyway, Tuchel is better to focus on looking for a top center-forward now. As far as I know, they still cannot get a replacement for Lukaku.

The transfer market this summer is something that is very crucial for Chelsea to return to being challengers for the title.  Tuchel seems very satisfied with their latest signings, namely Koulibaly and Sterling, both of which are considered to be suitable for his Chelsea style of play.  Chelsea are quite late in entering the transfer market this summer because they have to clear up the club's internal problems first.  However, obviously can not be satisfied with the current squad.  And I'm sure that Chelsea's shopping is not over.  They would use the remaining time to hunt for the right players.

I think they may not actually do something at all. I mean think about it this way, they literally changed the whole ownership in the middle of the season and that's very important. When you have something like that, there are two options, either the new owner will try the best to get as many players as possible and not go small.

Or they could end up with getting nobody important and they could just roll it again this year, Tuchel is great and just trust him. That would be something great either way because Chelsea is not the team that needs to rush into winning anything, why would they need to win a title right now, they just need to make sure they are staying at the top.

Chelsea does have quite a lot of defenders if we look at the list of players Chelsea have, but there are not many that can be relied on now.
For center back only Thiago Silva and Kalidou Koulibaly who I think can make a good contribution, while the rest are young people whose
appearance is less consistent. While Azpilicueta and Alonso are still in the process of negotiating with Barcelona, if the two players move,
Chelsea must immediately find a replacement.

In conclusion, I think Chelsea at least need to bring in at least one centre-back and get ready to find replacements for Azpilicueta and Alonso.
Then for Lukaku's replacement, it must also be immediately found a replacement, because Raheem Sterling who was successfully acquired by Chelsea
was not good as a center forward. Actually Todd Boehly wanted to sign Ronaldo as a replacement for Lukaku, but it seems Tuchel turned it down,
so Chelsea really have to look for other striker alternatives. I think Chelsea should have bought Victor Osimhen to replace Lukaku, but there doesn't
seem to be any rumors linking Osimhen to Chelsea.

I have heard that Chelsea have made their offer for Sevilla centre-back Jules Kounde already. It is 47 million pounds according to news. Barcelona have also been targeting to sign him actually so I'm wondering whether they will also make an offer soon. I don't know whether they are in a solid condition to be able to fight against Chelsea for this deal. But they have seemed very comfortable about spending a big amount of money so far.

Chelsea already has 6 center-backs right now (Thiago Silva, Koulibaly, Chalobah, Ampadu, Malang Sarr, and Miazga). I think Chelsea doesn't need a new center-back right now. They only waste money if they force themselves to sign Kounde. Moreover, Sevilla won't sell Kounde at a cheap price because he is a key player there. It is a bad idea for Chelsea to spend big money on an unnecessary player. While for Barcelona, I think they have no more money to buy Kounde because they already spent a lot of money after signing Lewandowski and Raphinha. Barcelona also still has 6 center-backs, what for buying more a center-back? They are not in urgent for a new center-back. So, I think Kounde will stay at Sevilla since both Chelsea and Barcelona don't really need a new center-back.

You have a good point there. Chelsea already have many centre-backs. However maybe they are still indecisive about choosing a player beside Koulibaly in the starting eleven. Maybe they are even thinking of making a new signing for solving this problem. That can be the reason why they are going for Kounde also now. However they had better sell some centre-backs in the team in case this deal is completed successfully. Otherwise there can be a serious unhappiness situation among some of these players.

Why are you so sure about this, is it true that having new players there will be a guarantee? I do not think so.
What I mean is that in this case there has been quite a significant progress when Conte was coaching at Tottenham now but this will only be limited to that because it is very difficult to be a challenger in a league which is very tight in this regard because of course the other big teams are far superior compared to that with them.

G_Besar didn't guarantee anything apart from "a lot of surprises". I actually agree with him that we'll see surprises next season but that has always been the case in the past couple of years. Spurs is one of those teams that are consistently good until the middle of the season then they start to fade hehe. Let's see if this new team could do better job than the last.
