Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[martyns]

Manchester City's pre-season match was better than Liverpool, it's no wonder that many predict a victory for Manchester City in their next meeting. But I haven't fully seen the potential of Liverpool itself, in other words it's possible that they will bring out a gun that they didn't do in pre-season,

Pre season games means nothing at all once the league start, everything could be different. In fact, all those teams that do well in their pre season games actually are exposing a glimpse of their next season's strategy. Aside from that, these games served as nothing but entertainment for the fans though so expect alot of things to be different

Pre-season results are not a measure for a team.  But for a manager when his team gets bad results of course it is also very worrying.  Likewise, Liverpool are still achieving unsatisfactory results.  Moreover, in the near future the Reds will face the defending champions of the English League Manchester City in the Comminity Shield with the status of winning the 2021/2022 FA Cup.

Friendly games results doesn't determine the status of the team. Jurgen Klopp really working on his squad and making sure that that there's no space with error in his team. His new striker, Darwin Nunez still adapting to Liverpool pattern, the reds still lose against RB Leipzig but it doesn't mean the reds aren't good enough. Talking about Liverpool facing Manchester City  in the community shield, it's definitely going to be a tough game and the reds won't hesitate to record a win in the game.

I would like to see how Arsenal and Tottenham move for the upcoming season because if you look at it from a reshuffle point of view, it looks like they really intend to have a good season.

This is the ideal time for Tottenham and Arsenal to take over to replace Chelsea. At least make some further improvements, whatever is happening at the moment at Chelsea is still ongoing and quite prolonged. For a club like Tottenham themselves, they feel benefited because from the transfer market to the pre-season that Chelsea went through, it would be difficult for them to show their best performance.

Arsenal and Tottenham will perform excellently well in the coming season, they will give those top teams a run of their money, it's not going to be easy win as usual over those two clubs, considering the quality signings made by those club especially Arsenal who had beef up and strengthen their squad in all area and departments likewise Tottenham are now stronger honestly they will improve their performance, I believe top 4 spot will become more competitive now after Arsenal narrowly missed the spot to Tottenham last season they will try and clinch it this upcoming season.

^^Liverpool are aware of their game against City in coming days and their Community Shield game is much more important than a friendly one so it was likely that Klopp will not roll out his best players and so he did. We will see Liverpool with all best players in their game against City in coming days and not like a performance they showed in their pre season game against RB Salzburg.

[Alisha-k]

Liverpool have to ended their pre season tour with lose result from Salzburg and on that match Liverpool really dominated the game with 75% ball possessions but Salzburg players looks playing with totally defense and Liverpool looks very difficult to break through the defense of Salzburg although since the match begin Liverpool has made several attempts to scoring goals but until final whistle they were failed and final score is 1-0 for Salzburg

After losing badly to Man United, Liverpool suffered another defeat, while Man City win two of their pre-season tour matches, this makes them even more confident considering the two will meet in the coming days. And Darwin Nunez who was previously expected to replace Sadio Mane's role in Liverpool's front line is also not too bad, when he faced Leipzig he looked confident. I predict the next matchs will probably end in a narrow win for Man City.

It's truly becoming a thing of concern with the way Liverpool are performing. Last time, they were walloped 4-0 by Man United and similarly lost to Salzburg last night. With the FA cup meeting with Man City, and their performance not being up to par, can Jurgen's men surprise us?

I see some people commenting that friendly games are not games to measure the strength of a team, but in my opinion this is not true. when a team enters the field, even if they say they didn't put their best players and that team loses, then that team is weak, we won't use justification for defeat, losing is cause for concern. these friendly games serve for coaches to evaluate all players and then if the team wins it means that the team is strong and if it loses it means that the team is weak. with these defeats i will avoid betting on liverpool in the first premier league games

even if they didn't put their best players, if they were strong they would win and i doubt they can beat city unless city doesn't put their best players, as a liverpool fan i think that this season we are not very strong or we need more games to get in shape

The season will soon kick-off,and so many games will be played.So many teams are going to do well,while some teams till still end up going to the religation zone.One team that will surprise people next season is Arsenal,I think they have signed players that can push them to contend for the tittle next season.Liverpool look sharp with Nunez in their  squad,but they will definitely miss Mane because Mane was an incredible player,someone that delivers on daily basis. And for the game Liverpool has against City,I think it's a game that will be very tough for the both team

[CryptoPanda]

Chelsea are still determined to sign another centre-back even though they aren't in need of such player immediately now. They are searching for a starting eleven player obviously. In case their plans to sign Kounde don't work then there are many options on the table. These options are Pau Torres, Milan Skriniar, Josko Gvardiol, Dayot Upamecano and Benjamin Pavard. It would be really difficult for them to pick one of them. By the way I don't think that Bayern Munich would let Upamecano go after completing the duo with him and de Ligt in defense.

Since the departure of Antonio Rudiger to Real Madrid on a free transfer, it has been a major blow for Tuchel and his plans for the future.  Because it is undeniable that his position is very important in the Chelsea back row.  In addition, the Chelsea manager is also very confused with some of his coveted players who failed to be recruited.  This blow was, of course, significantly reduced by the signing of 31-year-old Senegal international Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli.  But that's not enough, on the other hand, the figure of Thiago Silva who is now 38 years old is a big question mark whether the Brazil international is able to appear consistent and play effectively, the age factor is a problem for Silva.  So for that Chelsea must bring in a central defender.  It is reported that Chelsea are now eyeing Leicester City defender Wesley Fofana after several of Chelsea's main targets failed.

Chelsea have lost three of their main transfer target to same club, Barcelona. Could it be financial problems, is the problem from negotiations or probably the current state of the club in terms of performance, I really don't know what the problem is. I expected much better from Chelsea, they really meed to do something about their transfers and get some good talents to join the squad, both Koulibaly and Thiago Silva are you reliable,they need more option in a lot of positions.

The problem is that regardless of anyone trying to tackle, still those who can emerge and become winners of the league over the last few seasons are only two clubs and that has happened since the 2017/2018 season and even then only 1 time Manchester City has been shifted by Liverpool so it is quite clear that the dominance feels here that given City.
But even if that is the case for the current season I still feel that Liverpool are going to make something even more exciting than before.

Even things are not easy for any team but still edge is going with Manchester City because they are currently most to compete side in Premier League but with few transfers which happened in last few days we can expect some good challenge for them from Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham because these are also having good signings and quality players in their squad which are going to be challenging for all at top.

No doubt Manchester City is most dominating side in this Premier League but still few other coaches like Conte and Arteta are also having now good strategy for top spot because they all know how to handle things here in English Premier League with most chances now Manchester City wants to have better results in Champions League as well.

I think the competition this season for the league trophy will be tougher and intense. Arsenal and Tottenham are looking very sharp with the addition of more good players, we have seen Arsenal doing so well in the transfer market and we have heard the stories of Conte and how he is able to turn teams around and win the leagues on different occasions so alot is expected this time from Arsenal as well as Spurs and we might get a surprise winner at the end of the season. It will not be so easy for Liverpool and Manchester city next season.

However, no team should be judged by the results of friendly matches. But if the team is not able to perform well in the friendly match even after having all the important players of the team then it is really worrying. All team coaches should try to stabilize their team before the start of the season, if the team's goal is to win the title. Because the Premier League is very competitive. If teams lose points in the first few matches, it will become difficult to win the title at the end of the season.

Surely a matter of worry but still we have to understand this these friendly matches are just for having some practice and mostly coaches try to learn weakness of team with their strategy and system which they are going to implement for next season mostly no team play with full force which is also having big impact on these matches results.

Sometime these can work for positively but mostly no takes them seriously just for introduction of their new signings and having some engagement from fans are enough for them now we are heading for first big encounter of next season which is going to be Community Shield between Manchester City vs Liverpool surely it's going to be challenging for both teams and fans as with this we have very few days for next season.

Well these game serves as coach to check their strategy and directions and how well player receives those instructions and implements on the pitch. This serves as coach to see if some players are ready for big games or not. The main thing about these game is experience without any cost. Any League games or cup game that matters are risky but these are not that's why coaches love to play other players and check if players are ready for big games or not in these games.

1.57 is a 63% chance that City will become champions. I could accept such chances if there were a few rounds left until the end of the championship, but giving such an advantage to any team before the start of the championship ... looks like a mistake.

Haaland effect, I suppose?
With Haaland arriving at the club, I don't think he is the kind of player Pep is going to bench for some midfielder like he used to do to Jesus. Without major injuries across the season. Haaland is the kind of striker that can guarantee City at least 20 goals.

Attaining 4 titles in the last 5 seasons, also shouldn't be under looked;

We can't doubt the ability of Pep Guardiola because of his success in bringing Manchester City to be a club that continues to be on the winning path, but if you say Manchester City dominates the English Premier League, of course you are wrong, because in my opinion, the English Premier League is not currently dominated by one  teams like other leagues, the competition in the premier league is the toughest and tightest because there are several teams that are often candidates for champions every season not only Manchester City, Conte and Guardiola, maybe we can say the same level from the point of view of experience, but for Arteta I think we have to admit if Arteta still has a level below Guardiola in this time, but I'm curious from the name of the coach  you mentioned, why don't you include the name Klopp?

I have had this fear that Pep will bench Haaland and keep using his midfielders to do the striking role as usual. But on a second thought, Haaland is a class and the eyes of the world are on him, if he eventually starts benching Haaland, he would fall under serious criticism even by the media.
But from City friendly with Bayern, I could see that Haaland can easily integrate in the city team because he has great position and I am very sure he has alot of goals to score. His major challenge would be injuries.

[lixer]

Arsenal and Tottenham will perform excellently well in the coming season, they will give those top teams a run of their money, it's not going to be easy win as usual over those two clubs, considering the quality signings made by those club especially Arsenal who had beef up and strengthen their squad in all area and departments likewise Tottenham are now stronger honestly they will improve their performance, I believe top 4 spot will become more competitive now after Arsenal narrowly missed the spot to Tottenham last season they will try and clinch it this upcoming season.

This is beauty of Premier League we have too many teams for competing for title and all are doing good job for big challenge because we all know Premier League is one of the most challenging league in the world and all teams are having equal chance for giving their best in last few years Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool are dominating teams but now in last season we have good challenges from Tottenham and Arsenal which are creating more interest with these Manchester United are also having big hopes for bringing back their golden days six top teams are going to be in line and who is going to stand until end it is a big question for millions around the glob.

Most chances we are going to be very entertaining start and more amazing end of this season with many unexpected results and change of positions for staying at the top.

I think this Community Shield match will be very important for both of them I can't wait how they play with the best strategy and with some players, like Haaland at Mancity and Darwin Nunez at Liverpool of course it will be the spearhead of each.
Of course this match is more than a friendly match they will do their best and with much better.
I think this is the match that many have been waiting for.

Haaland is now in a tougher competition than at his previous club. Keeping fit is something that must be done. this will help him not to spend too much time recovering from an injury.
But seeing Haaland's game quickly get support from his team, I don't think it's difficult for him to score a lot of goals this season. there is no reason for Pep to put him on the bench. Haaland will be the new star of the EPL.

It would be a big loss if the performance was good and the purchase price + salary was not small just for display on the bench.
But, even so, this will still be a risky thing, especially if you look at the condition of Haaland's body this season while at Dortmund, it is clear that this is still very risky considering his legs are really vulnerable this season.

Chelsea have lose key players and will still lose Alonso and azpilicueta, yea they got koulibaily and Raheem Sterling in but I don't think they will be stronger this season, arsenal did well last season and with there good work on transfer they will do more better this season,if it wasn't for Newcastle, arsenal would have been in the champions League not Tottenham Hotspur, spurs will do well also in my honest opinion I think they will challenge Manchester city and Liverpool for the premier League title.

[emrecemsan]

Ronaldo seems even okay for being released on free now. This is really insane to me because there is no meaning in just waiting for him. It is obvious that he won't be able to find any team that are going to compete in the Champions League. The Atletico Madrid rumour also seems like just a lie. He shouldn't leave Manchester United in this case as it would be a big disrespect to his team also. The fans want to see him here and Ronaldo should think about his memories in this team also.
