Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[rendravolt]

Compared to previous seasons, I think Manchester United have been better under Ten Hag this season, there’s been some improvements and we can judge that from performances of Manchester United players playing in the World Cup. Their individual performances just shows how Ten Hag has managed to bring these players up to top fitness level and high performance. Good thing the whole Ronaldo saga is finally over and all attention will be focused now on the available players and improving the squad.

Maybe it's just a matter of chemistry between players that isn't fully organized yet, so sometimes they should be able to create lots of opportunities and end up often failing due to lack of it. Erik ten hag is indeed quite good as a coach, but if he brings in players that Manchester United really need, of course it will take a long time to improve his squad.

Indeed, they are back in a good direction before the break but it's still uncertain now and the chances I don't think have changed that they can still fight for the Champions League or Europa League Zone although indeed in this case some problems arose such as when Ronaldo left and rumors of a club sale which was busy recently.

When the premier resume it's likely that the dynamic of some clubs will change their game probably due to the temporary pause of the league, some clubs that had started improving prior to the World Cup might start to struggle or find it difficult to continue with their fine form likewise those who are not doing well might up their game, club such as Arsenal will have to seek for an alternative to the injured Gabriel Jesus sidelined for three months, he had been crucial to their brilliant performance this season, Man Utd needed to move on after the departure of Ronaldo which I believe won't affect the club likewise other clubs.

This is all still uncertain because we also have to look at other possibilities because of course there are 2 possibilities that will occur whether they will be better, or worse than before.
As for whether Ronaldo's move affects or isn't clear, there will be a difference for Manchester United no matter what happens, but on the other hand, for other clubs, maybe there will be a slight difference if Ronaldo's news about one of the clubs in the EPL blows again, but things like this will be better this is not the case.

In the absence of Virgil Van Dijk, it is quite difficult for Liverpool to maintain good defensive play against an opponent team. Joel Matip is a good defender, but in the few chances he's been given, he hasn't proven himself to be a perfect cover-up in the absence of Virgil van Dijk.

Seeing that EPL will become more challenging by January, Van Dijk may be overcome by fatigue if used frequently.
It will be good to see Liverpool register another central defender by January because, with this current defensive hurdle, their possibility of winning the league is quite narrow.

Ten Hag is probably an experienced coach. Before that, he was very successful as the coach of Ajax. But controlling a star-studded team like Manchester United is difficult. I don't know if he can succeed. However, Manchester United management has prepared huge funds to strengthen their squad. But with talented players, Ten Hag's match strategy must be good. If the match strategy is not good, it is not possible to perform consistently well in a league like the Premier League. Because every team here is strong. And so if they want to gain points, they must have a good match strategy.

yes even though manchester united is better but it's very far away to dream of getting the english league trophy this season, because the points are very far away to catch the top ranking, unless manchester city and arsenal suffer successive defeats maybe manchester united can catch up on points to go to the top of the standings but it looks like impossible  

In fact, with the current conditions, it is still very difficult to say that Manchester United are at the top, especially with the problems they have.
It's possible for them to be in the Champions League zone after last season they didn't go well but when they say they're going to be champions, at least they have to start the season better than they are now because right now I don't think it's possible to see City playing badly in the conditions they are in.

Is Liverpool still fighting for the title? I think they will be happy to get at least in the top 4. And it seems to me that the acquisition of another defender will not solve the problem, because even if he is good, such a replacement cannot work right away, it takes time to establish mutual understanding between the players.

Manchester United are increasingly convincing under the tutelage of Erik Ten Hag, he has a good vision. But to conquer the Premier League is not easy, he certainly needs enough time to be able to do much. Ten Hag will certainly move in the transfer market, he might bring in several players to strengthen the squad.

In addition, to convince the public, this season the target of finishing in the champions league zone must be achieved because that is the most realistic target for United. However, given the intense competition in the Premier League, fans must also be patient.

MU to the top? it is impossible at the moment, there are many deficiencies that MU still has and I see it is very difficult for them to solve. Arsenal's squad is much better and I'm sure the trophy this season belongs to them

but I am pretty sure MU until the end of the season will definitely stop in the top 4, they have performed quite well, and so far ten hag have done that well

Talking about the title for Liverpool now will be very difficult, except for two scenarios, namely they can improve significantly and also the team that is now in the top 4 has experienced a very deep decline. But will the second scenario be easy to happen, with their good performances, especially those shown by Arsenal and Manchester city? Of course it's not that easy to happen.
But when talking about the top 4 positions for Liverpool, I'm pretty optimistic they can do that.

However, regarding Newcastle United, we no longer consider them a weak club because their conditions have undergone many changes during their transfer of ownership.

They have strong resources now so it would be wrong to say they are a weak club at the moment because sooner or later they will make a splash with the resources they have.
This is the second season from Newcastle with different things but they now look so comfortable in the top standings even in the top 3 so it really needs further monitoring, especially for the big 4 regular clubs now because Newcastle is really biting now.

Aside from financial ability, owner support for the team's needs looks to be the Newcastle United boss' top priority. If you look further, the appointment of Eddie Howe as head coach was a major factor behind The Magpies' good performance.

Since Eddie Howe moved to St. James's Park in November 2021, Newcastle began to revive even though they only brought in a few players such as Bruno Guimaraes and Kieran Trippier.
Last season they were only able to finish in 11th position, but in this season up to 15 matches they are in 3rd place and have the opportunity to pass Manchester City by 2 points.

Not to mention the rumors that are coming that Newcastle United are ready to bring in a star player in January.

[Furious 7]

Honestly, It will be exciting to see Arsenal bring in another striker to cover up for Gabriel Jesus in the January window. I know there is Eddie Nketiah but it wouldn't be wise to depend fully on Eddie Nketiah tp lead the lines alone. I think it is wise to have other options and backup also for Eddie, hopefully Arteta can get something done about this in the next transfer window.

Arsenal have already thought about this because it is impossible for Arsenal to leave the striker position vacant. Reportedly Mikel Arteta is targeting Ferran Torres to return to Arsenal but this all depends on when the transfer market opens, because there will definitely be more good candidates to replace Gabriel Jesus.

At the moment there is still no latest news for Arsenal especially to look for a striker now but as you said, sooner or later this will definitely be answered because this is a position that is indeed a bit crucial if left unchecked so it is impossible for Arsenal to do that especially with the conditions at the moment which is indeed in a good trend this season.
Arteta doesn't want to be too hasty with this because he knows that if he rushes it won't be too good later and I like the way he reacts to this.

Manchester united is better now , the level of their performance now is not a level to win EPL.  The level of manchester united performance can take them to play champions league next season. I really respect Ten Hag for his great job for Manchester United this season.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Harry Kane has increased his value even more by his World Cup performance I think. He made a really good contribution to the team with goals and assists both. Maybe the last penalty he missed cost England too much but in general he was still one of the impressive players in the squad. This is good for Kane to preserve his quality while aging. Because I think that we will most probably see him at another team if Tottenham have another unsuccessful season now. His performance so far in the league has been really great - scored 12 goals.

His name has been called with Bayern Munich very much. Even though I don't wait for them to make an offer in January, I think that they might make an enquiry for his transfer fee next summer. I don't expect Bayern Munich to move on without bringing a top striker before next season.

Everything needs a process, not all coaches can cultivate good players at big clubs. I'm sure Erik ten hag is able to overcome these problems and can bring Manchester United back to the top in a few more years. Like Jurgen Kloop, he came to Liverpool in 2015 and was able to present the EPL title in the 2019/2020 season and previously he also helped Liverpool win the Champions League title in the 2018/2019 season. So anything can happen, it's just a matter of time and adaptation between coaches and players.

I'm not sure Manchester United have got the right man and the best coach for the job. He's not even top 10 in Europe right now.
But Erik Ten Hag is a technician and has a good football philosophy. Currently, Erik is the Boss. Let's support him.
And I hope he gets the right players that suit his style of play.

[ShowOff]

The injury suffered by Jesus while defending Brazil in the world cup made Arsenal dizzy with the current state of the front line, losing Jesus was a heavy blow for Arsenal. Reportedly Arsenal want to sign Depay to fill the post left by Jesus, Arteta needs to maintain the depth of his squad to achieve this season's goals.
Arsenal, who are still in first place in the EPL standings list, certainly want to continue to maintain their position, the arrival of a new striker is necessary because Arsenal cannot rely on Eddie Nketiah as the only option to replace Jesus.

Ten Hag will probably glance at Depay instead of Arteta. Depay is a great sticker but so far he hasn't looked very great at Barcelona. Barcelona currently has Lewandowski and several other reliable strikers, so Depay may be sold when an interested team actually makes an offer for him.

Arsenal and Manchester United would be great for Depay. It's just a rumor so far but maybe it will soon be known how it goes in January. I think Depay will move closer to Manchester United than Arsenal because Ten Hag is a coach who will influence the player.

Manchester United at this point needs a coach like  Jorghen Klopp to awaken the team and set them on winning streak.Their current coach Hen Tag is good and technical,but I think there are some big players at the club, that might make it look like the job is too big for him.Ronaldo has an issue with the team that has made him want to leave,and according to reports,he is considering the possibility of moving to Chelsea.I think it's really going to be a hurting deal for Manchester United if he signs for their rival,and anything that makes Ronaldo sign for them,he is going to be a constant terror to Man U because he thinks Man u have betrayed his love for the club.

[Coyster]

His name has been called with Bayern Munich very much. Even though I don't wait for them to make an offer in January, I think that they might make an enquiry for his transfer fee next summer. I don't expect Bayern Munich to move on without bringing a top striker before next season.

Harry Kane is already nearly 30 years old, he only basically has a few years left at the peak of his career and if he decides to spend it in Spurs, then i'm afraid he might end his career without winning a major trophy, and that would be a disappointment for a player of his quality and talent, he definitely has to move over the a bigger team that win trophies frequently.

Having said that, there have been quite a lot of rumors of Bayern Munich being interested in Kane, and it makes sense, they just recently lost their main striker Lewandowski, thus Kane is a good replacement; but the problem in this deal is going to be Spurs, they have a way of holding onto their players, either scaring suitors away with transfer fee or purposely dragging discussions until the other party gives it up, they did it to City two Summers ago when the Etihad club wanted to sign Kane, so i'd not be surprised if in the end Kane remains in Spurs next summer.

Last season Manchester United had better players but their was no connection between this players and it affected their performance.  This time I can see good cooperation and connection between players in Manchester United.

Returning to Manchester United would be a great option for Ten Hag and Depay too, he will play as a main player at Manchester United. And yes Ten Hag is more interested in bringing Depay rather than Arteta, if Manchester United succeeds in bring Depay from Barcelona, I think they will be in the top four also to secure UCL tickets at least, although its too early to say this.
