Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Cookdata]

Thomas Tuchel sack is one of the sacks that I can say that almost 90% of the people I discuss football with doesn't agree with, majority of Chelsea supporters are sad about it and I believe his sack is something beyond team performance. It could be that the manager has got big misunderstanding with the management or the management wants to change all old staff. If you observe alot of sackings has been happening in background, including Peter Czech and others.

It could be that the dude was under pressure all this while, you can easily tell from his reaction that day when he shook hands with Antonio Conte after their match with Tottenham, we also know that new management and the owner may mean a different contract, it is possible that man had a contract that he shouldn't allow any team defeat them in a row, so far they have been defeated by two teams and 1 champions league, it could be what really happening behind the scene and does are the things we don't see as a fan and supporters.

What a surprising decision by Chelsea!

They weren't doing well of course but I still didn't expect them to sack Tuchel. By Aubameyang's arrival I was hoping to see them starting to get positive results in time. But they did this after the Dinamo Zagreb loss. I hope that Boehly knows what he is doing now. Pochettino is surely the main candidate for the role now. It is better to continue with a manager who knows this place and the team well for now. Pochettino is a decent manager unlike his not making Tottenham champions in the league. Hopefully he has a good chemistry with the players to improve the form in case Chelsea bring him here.

Todd Boehly is trying to minimize cost and maximize profit. He wants a manager that doesn't have a big profile. I think Chelsea should go for a not so popular coach. There isn't many options in the market for a manager. Graham Potter, Zinedine Zidane, and Pochettino are the mostly likely managers to get the job. Graham Potter is less fancy and has more experience in the premier league, Zidane has more experience in the champions league, Pochettino stock has dropped in the last year I don't think he will be Chelsea's first choice. The tussle is between Graham Potter and Zinedine Zidane.

I don't know if it was a wise decision to sack Thomas Tuchel just one month the season begins, I also think the transfer just close and some new players came to Chelsea to play under Thomas Tuchel such players will be disappointed with the news and that might curse set back to the new players adaptation,players like Aubameyan who has play under Tuchel at Dortmund will not be pleased, Chelsea are also lucky to sign more defensive players if not the new coach might inherit players that don't suit their style, defensive players will always play to new system.

Chelsea football club are currently out of form with basic reason of the Russian billionaire leaving the club he was known to be a spender in the football market but this time the club Chelsea could not afford the kind of player they wanted the likes of Kingsley Coman, Kounde, Kimpembe, Ronaldo, Raphinha and more these are players Chelsea wanted to sign money was not released by new buyers to get these players this is one big factor that has affected Chelsea greatly

They already brought quite a number of new players while releasing more so I don't think it's just an issue of money now. It's essentially a new team if you look at all those transfers and it's kinda expected that they will need more time to work things out.  Their form will be the same even if they bought those players you mentioned.

Napoli has done marvelous and wonderful in today's match i never believe that Liverpool will be such easy for Napoli to defeated with such aggregate of goals in today's matches. I believe that since the origin of Napoli they have never defeated Liverpool but today's winning just come under surprised to me. This is letting us know the changes that occur in football clubs, because winning it's no longer being determined by a club neither the coach but by the performance of the players in a team

People are always underestimate another club just because it was not from EPL. Liverpool has been giving very bad performance since penalty was happening. it seems like that if any game will become a difficult game for EPL clubs in champion's league. Almost all of premier club have been facing difficult battle except manchester city which is giving a very good performance. It seems like city was the only team that can become a winner on its group.
Another EPL team has been struggling with its performance.

Chelsea is showing their ambition. They are gunning for Titles, and can't afford a toothless coach to disrupt that plan. They have decided to part ways with Thomas Tuchel. Have you watched them recently? I recalled asking a fellow Chelsea fan of their creativity here. The results are better than the performance, how could a club with array of creative stars be having X.Gs in nos that are similar to the heart rate of a dead man. At the same time I blame the Owner, I mean why spending over 200m when you know you are not backing the manager for so long?? That’s not prudence of a business man.

And does the next manager guarantees them title? Tuchel is a great manager and I feel he should be given a bit more time. But I think something else must have gone wrong after the defeat, maybe some kind of argument between the manager and board and that lead to Tuchel's departure. Fofana , Sterling were the signings that Tuchel wanted but the exit of Tuchel without them allowing him time to experiment the new signings is something that is hard to swallow. I think something crazy went down behind the scenes that lead to Tuchel's departure.

Tuchel is no toothless coach as you say... I think he has great eye but like every manager he also needs time to settle things and that is something that board usually doesn't give. Tuchel came in as manager and won CL with Chelsea which is historic... They were the underdogs in that CL and came out as winner. I am sure the earlier owner would still have allowed some time to Tuchel.

Tuchel officially parted ways with Chelsea, this is certainly a very surprising decision.  Many people do not understand what has been decided by the Chelsea officials.  A string of bad results is suspected to be the cause, but I think this is very hasty.  I dare say, the Chelsea era is over under Todd's control.

Chelsea's performance is not too good in the Premier League, but I believe the Chelsea management can still accept it. What makes Tuchel sacked is
most likely due to Chelsea's defeat against Dinamo Zagreb, it makes Chelsea management very disappointed. Indeed, Chelsea should be able to
beat Dinamo Zagreb with the quality of Chelsea's players. Moreover, Chelsea has spent a very large transfer fee to bring in several new players,
so seeing Chelsea beaten by Dinamo Zagreb is something that is unacceptable.

Although I was also surprised by Tuchel's sacking, but I can understand the decision Chelsea management has made by sacking Tuchel.
I hope Chelsea can bring in a replacement for Tuchel soon, there are several candidates so far that have been rumored to be Tuchel's replacement.
But of the many names that have emerged as a replacement for Tuchel, perhaps Graham Potter is the main target of Chelsea. Graham Potter
became famous after successfully making Brighton in the top 4, although the Premier League still has a long way to go, but Brighton's form is
considered outstanding so far. Even Fabrizio Romano reported Chelsea had moved to have talks with Potter, so there's a chance Graham Potter
will be Tuchel's replacement. We'll see what's going on in the news soon, is it true that Graham Potter will be the new Chelsea coach or not.

Yes of course, Chelsea need time to really work things out with the club management, the present condition of the club can attributed to lack of communication and team work from both the players and the coach and since the change of ownership of Celsea the club has not regained itself fully. I was also surprised to read that the coach has been sacked today and this will still hurt the club further.

I wish the club make better decisions in choosing the next coach that will have the ability to revive the club and possibly set them up for easy succession to the premier league.

The Fulham game in three days is going to be Chelsea's first official game after sacking Tuchel. Let's see if there will be some change in their performance. Aubameyang needs to adapt as quick as possible to be a solution to Chelsea's scoring problems. More importantly the team need to play better as a whole. Fulham wouldn't be an easy opponent for them. Fulham were nearly even defeating Liverpool before. Mitrovic is in a great form these days so Chelsea defense will need to be very aware. I still want to believe that this could be the game to improve their morale.

Yes exactly, Chelsea bought several players, and some of them also have high potential and are talented as we can see here Chelsea transfer.
But, indeed, they are still not able to do their best in the team, this is probably because the new players are still not conformed with the strategy. So, they are not really optimal so far. Some factors are also influencing.
Well, there are some candidates for the new coach that hopefully will bring the right strategy and Chelsea to turn back their performance.
Among them, the most talks are about Graham Potter, Mauricio Pochettino and Zinedine Zidane

The match between Arsenal vs Manchester United will stop the winning streak, which has won 5 times without any flaws

Maybe "yes" or "no"
Sometimes this big match is hard to guess. Even with the players Man United currently have who look very strong, the final result is not certain. Actually, I also support Man United winning. I am also waiting for action from Antony who can already play later.
Of course, the mentality of this game greatly affects the final result. If Arsenal lose maybe Man United have changed, but if they win I think Ten Hag will have to think hard in the next game against Chesea, City. Their ability I think is still above Arsenal.

Moreover, Chelsea has spent a very large transfer fee to bring in several new players, so seeing Chelsea beaten by Dinamo Zagreb is something that is unacceptable.

Mate, Chelsea sacked Tcuhel should be based on a serious consideration. It shouldn't be caused by the bad result of 1 match only. It is likely the accumulation of the bad performance of Chelsea in the early of this season. But I think it is still too early to fire Tuchel because he has a chance to improve Chelsea performance in the next few matches. Chelsea has some new players, Tuchel needs to adjust his strategy with those new players. I think he deserves to give more chances. However, Chelsea management may have a different perception.

[TelolettOm]

Yes, they used the new strategy in some matches previously and the result was very effective. ....

The development of Man United's performance does look extraordinary, especially since Erik ten Hag kept Ronaldo and Maguire on the bench.
Man United managed to get positive results in the last 4 matches in the Premier League, even Man United can beat strong teams like Liverpool
and Arsenal. If we look at Man United's current form, looks like the top 4 position can be obtained by Man United this season.

Yes, the current strategy is working very well and suits the players. So that they become more optimal in each game. Now it's just a matter of how consistent they are in the next matches. Don't let them get too carried away with their previous victories and become arrogant so that they will fall again. They are currently on fire, even some of them now have the desire and belief to be able to become Premier League winners. Although this is not easy, at least, they are really on fire to make a more satisfying match in every match.

I really believe this will happened and even changed the CEO a long time ago. Now, I still doubt they can resolve it in fulham because the official still giddy afraid they will be next. So, a draw is possible and realistic for this situation. probability of winning can they get if the squad really doesn't care about what happens in the office. but, if they have got a new coach between days, I thing a new spirit will they get to win.

I was shocked to read the news regarding the sacking of Thomas Tuchel. Has this been planned from before the match chelsea vs Dinamo Zagreb? Or was this dismissal really caused by Chelsea's defeat to Dinamo Zagreb?

I think Chelsea will have to adapt to a new coach after this. and it will have a big impact. both positive and negative impacts. depending on who the new coach will be brought in.

But I actually found dissatisfaction at Chelsea since Chelsea always failed to bring in good players. and always dare not overpay for high-quality players. I don't know if the root of the problem is in Tuchel or something else. but I think there must be a very strong reason behind the sacking of Thomas Tuchel. so I hope the new coach of chelsea can bring fresh air for chelsea. and indeed the series of chelsea defeats contains a lot of question marks for the fans. but still this dismissal is really beyond expectation. because the season has just started.

Chelsea  sacking their coach is something that baffles me.Tuchel has been one of the best coaches that Chelsea have had,and despite loosing some matches now,there is every tendency that when the players will blend,they will be able to work well and play together and get good results.Tuchel won the Champions league for them with the players that Lampard got,and as it stands now,I must confess that Chelsea have lost the best coach they ever had and definitely,they are going to regret sacking him because no coach they will get will be able to be like Tuchel.

At the moment it is difficult to see what the future will be like for them because there is still no replacement coach for Tuchel although it is indeed widely heard that Beighton's coach, Graham Potter, is most often heard of but there is still no further statement about this.
I think it will be a bit difficult now for Chelsea with the game getting closer but the new helm is not there for them yet and Todd has to work fast on this.

Sacking Thomas Tuchel was one of the best decisions so far by Todd Boehly's and his colleagues. People should know and put in mind that Chelsea board, right from Abramovich era, they are known for their impatience and they will sack their manager despite his achievements with the club. That was how they sack Jose Mourinho, Anthonio Conte who he won them the premier league in his first season at the club. Lifting titles for the club is more of a usual thing to blues fans, Thomas Tuchel didn't hit the lotto this time and it cost him his job. Talking about regrets, they won't feel it, rather they will sign one of the best coach in EPL these season.

Todd Boehly should have done this at the start of the season because what Chelsea lost was Thomas Tuchel because he didn't want to get new players who were more experienced and only concerned with price, while the contribution of new players at high prices was not necessarily good, at least Thomas Tuchel could take this as an important lesson to accept other people's suggestions to accept more experienced players rather than just concerned with price.

I personally do not believe the new Chelsea coach will quickly recover Chelsea's performance, because as far as I know and the surprise is about Tuchel himself as we know he did it quickly. Even when the Mourinho era came back at that time Mourinho was basically not a new person at Chelsea, but Mourinho failed to make Chelsea's performance improve. Therefore, it doesn't seem like all as lucky a coach as Tuchel made it fast for Chelsea upon his arrival. Now, at least there are names that are candidates to be appointed as Chelsea coaches like Zidane is also included but somehow I'm still not sure Zidane will accept it.

I am doubting if the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel was taken immediately. Maybe it has been in the plan of the owners of the team. They wanted to do a complete overhauling of the team. Chelsea has a history of coping after the sack of their coach. In fact, sometimes they perform better under interim coaches and they are used to the pressures their sacking action brings.

Although Tuchel is one of the best coaches in the world, but we still have good replacements for his job. Another club would now have a good manager while Chelsea would also get a new one. After all the little-known Christophe Galtier is doing a fantastic job as Paris Saint-Germain manager. Chelsea just needs a manager that would be loved by the players to come back to winning ways because they have the right quality players.

Yes Fulham is not an easy opponent, especially now that they are in a bad situation after losing the coach. I want to see if their decision to work with Tuchel is a good move or not.
I remember it was like Manchester United before they changed coaches a few times and it didn't have any effect, it just got worse.
