Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Iroh]

I do not see any problem in getting Antoine Griezmann even though some fans may think that Ten Hag won't sign him because he is old and want his focus is on building young average players.  
He'd be playing as central forward to drop deep so Bruno can get run off him, going wide and everywhere else on the pitch creating chances of play for Rashford and Antony.

Antoine Griezmann is a fine player and that showed in his skills and gameplay displayed in the just concluded World Cup tournament. We could all conclude he’s not a young player anymore but I think it’s arguable on the statement that he’s an old player. He’s still fit and plays very well.
So if Manchester United’s Ten Hag is interested in him, that’s good. I personally think he would be a nice fit on the Manchester United squad. Playing alongside Rashford would get Manchester United a lot of goals.

I see Newcastle now like Manchester City before Haaland was there, all the players are the same and also there are no top players or core players, but they are able to play solidly and also go up and down evenly.
and what you need to worry about is, manchester city because they are only 2 points away from newcastle in my opinion newcastle can overtake them if their game performance is consistent.
and it looks like Newcastle can beat Leicester City because the difference in the standings is far in my opinion also has an effect.

I wouldn't worry about that because basically Newcastle haven't proven themselves better when the opponents are stronger on paper. But if Newcastle can beat Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea and Arsenal then I will be worried. But now I wouldn't really worry about them even if the point gap was only 2.

Even so, I think Manchester City also needs to maintain its performance considering the season will be very busy. Manchester City can also be overtaken by other teams including Newcastle and Tottenham. So they have to be really careful about those bad possibilities.

But the great thing is that Newcastle can continue to win with a team that is on par with them, but for other big teams it will also be difficult for Newcastle to beat them, so don't worry, Manchester City must have prepared their squad with the Premier League to start, for sure Manchester city can win against Leeds.

It's clear that performance should never be relaxed, it's getting tighter with their match schedule. I think Manchester City can anticipate a bad situation if it happens and I'm optimistic that Manchester City can handle everything.

I think Manchester City is the best club in the world so far. They have very smart players in their team who are performing well. The FIFA World Cup has already ended and now the players of all the teams will return to training. Hopefully the match will start in a few days and Manchester City will maintain their previous performance.

Even so, I think Manchester City also needs to maintain its performance considering the season will be very busy. Manchester City can also be overtaken by other teams including Newcastle and Tottenham. So they have to be really careful about those bad possibilities.

With the experience Guardiola has I think Man City will remain strong for the season. They have provided strong evidence in the last season. Although today they have different players, but their quality is better. So I think the reason for the busy schedule won't make Man City bad.
Indeed, there are always many possibilities, this is because there are still quite a lot of matces. There are about twenty-four games still left for the EPL. Indeed at the moment Newcastle and Totenham are obvious threats. Their gap is very slim a one-time mistake would allow Man City to drop the rankings.

Right now money determines whether the team will be the best team or not, without lots of money, of course it is difficult to build a team that is truly perfect in the current era of football, now we have seen how money is the main factor for a team to be strong, like as Newcastle is currently starting to improve and it is possible that Newcastle will become a strong competitor in the Premier League, the Premier League will start next week and we will be able to enjoy the intense competition from the most competitive league later and I hope that Manchester City will be able to put strong pressure on the arsenal which is currently at the top of the standings.

Newcastle have proved that they can compete favorably with other top flight teams in the English Premier league. The played a 3-3 draw against Manchester City, 0-0 draw with Manchester United. They beat Tottenham 2-1 and won Chelsea 1-0. How else do you want them to prove their ability. Newcastle have one of the best teams currently and the management of the club has the financial power to attract and buy more quality players.  
I believe Newcastle even have a better chance of performing better than other top four clubs because they are not competing for any continental trophy which means that their players can just focus on winning the premiership. 

I think Newcastle should focus more on clinching top 4 position of the league this season, then the next target should be winning the league after beefing up their squad with more quality players in the summer transfer window, if they wanted to focus on winning the league this season they might ended up not finishing on a good position, EPL is a very tough and competitive league, it's better a club set target and meet up with the target for that season rather than chase shadows, I am not undermining the strength and quality of the club, based on past records a newly well funded clubs do perform well after one or two seasons in the league.

Seeing Luis Diaz back in training is a great sign for us Liverpool fans.
Can't wait for the match against Man City however if we start performing poorly again after the World Cup we don't have many excuses!

I also can't wait to see Manchester City beat Liverpool in the match later and see Haaland score against Liverpool, lol
To be honest, as a Manchester City supporter, I will certainly support City to win the league title this season and will surely shift Arsenal to the top of the standings.  

that's gonna be a very interesting match for sure. Liverpool is strong enough to beat manchester city but im not sure haaland will be so easy to make any goal against liverpool. You must remember if city was always losing against liverpool in the last matches.
liverpool is having enough squads to defeat city. City can only rely with haaland but liverpool has strong defense too that can prevent haaland to scoring for city. I think that the next match in EFL gonna be a hot match after the world cup.

Yes, you are right at City the player who is always the most renowned or what he does is the famous Viking Haaland, but we cannot distort the work that some players do either, the Luis Diaz thing is obvious since there is a lot of rest on the part that the player has had, then it can be speculated that the player alone cannot make a difference, Mo Salah is in very good shape, to think that Egypt did not go to the World Cup, the rest that has been given to him is very big , this means that he will arrive very fresh, like the Colombian, although I think something, the Colombian shines a lot in Liverpool but when it is his turn to play in South America against Argentina, Brazil, he is diluted, he is not seen much and they do not let him do the things he does at Liverpool.

It is reported that Manchester United are interested in the French national team player Antoine Griezmann, yes they want Griezmann again after he performed well and brought France to the final, even though in the final France was defeated by Argentina in a penalty shootout which ended a few hours ago. Even though Antoine Griezmann got a new role at the World Cup, he succeeded in playing his new role. Actually, this is not the first time that Manchester United are interested in this player, because a few years ago Manchester United also tried to bring in this player, but Griezmann prefers to stay in La Liga.

I didn't think I'd say this, but a move to United looks like an obvious win for Griezmann. Firstly, he is likely to be able to increase his salary, as United have been extremely generous in their attempts to regain their positions lately. Secondly, leaving the stagnant Atlético, which in the coming years will most likely continue to degrade under the leadership of Simeone, is practically leaving a sinking ship.

Obviously this will be a win for Griezmann because in any case he will definitely have an advantage if this does happen.
It's been a bit of a rough season for him in La Liga so this could indeed be the basis for him leaving. on the other hand in terms of salary it is clear that this will increase greatly especially this is the EPL where money is flowing quite fast.
Talking about Manchester United there are some other rumors about Chelsea trying to approach Garnacho now. Is this really going to be another big rumour?

I had also seen that news especially on facebook, because I had taken into account that Garnacho, Bruno and some others from Manchester wanted to leave the club due to all the problems they have there, of course CR7 left all that mixed up and with the point that everything was so bad that they have the same club for sale, that is something that tells us that in part what CR7 said is not a lie, and that the club is going through a very bad time, this means that CR7 moved the matica and quite a lot, for now I think that the main thing that you should do is that they take out Ten Hag since he is a coach who does not contribute anything to the team, with so many tencison there are and who are very good they should take him out now.

CR7 gives a lot to talk about:

Cristiano Ronaldo 'waits in Dubai' for new club as Lionel Messi celebrates greatest triumph

Lionel Messi took the trophy to bed just over a week after Cristiano Ronaldo went straight down the tunnel in tears as the World Cup decisively separated football's two biggest superstars.

It came with Ronaldo having ended his relationship with Manchester United by mutual consent last month, following his bombshell interview with Piers Morgan. He is now a free agent with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr strongly linked with a move.

Leading European clubs have distanced themselves from a move, including Real Madrid – where the striker is the all-time club record scorer – who have no interest in a sensational return for Ronaldo. Sporting Lisbon have pushed away speculation also, as have Bayern Munich, while the 37-year-old's displays in Qatar won't have helped his cause if he wishes to continue at Europe's elite level.

The way Newcastle have been performing this season is truly amazing. They are third in the table. And perhaps they have only lost one match this season. Newcastle have no star players. Due to the good bond between the team players, they have been able to maintain the consistency of their performance. But I would say if Newcastle want to qualify for the Champions League they need to strengthen their squad. The team should bring star players. Newcastle's owner is very rich. But we don't know yet whether they are interested in spending money to strengthen the team.

Newcastle should stay focus to be among the top four,this should be their target because I don't see them winning the league but with their quality and good players anything can happen. Arsenal is already topping the table and will not give chance to Newcastle, they are targeting to be this season EPL winner which they have been working towards tirelessly.

Next week we can begin to see if these clubs can be consistent with their previous performance before the world cup or not. Transfer windows will also help in boosting up some clubs as new players will be bought and this can be an advantage to clubs that were not performing well before the world cup.

[RockBell]

Now that the World Cup is over and most players have gained more experience to play effectively when the Premier League resumes, lots of signing will start going on Wolverhampton about confirming Cunha signing the Premier League as it is coming fresh and coming with a lot of amazing packages installed with it. I can see Messi still celebrating after is victory in the World Cup and his main target or wish have been granted. I miss my favorite black player Saka and can't wait for the resumption.

only 2 teams have currently only lost 1 time, that is arsenal (the current leader of the EPL standings) and Newcastle (which is currently in 3rd position), the game shown by newcastle so far is really good, even though their squad is not filled with expensive star players. but until now what has surprised me is that even though it is owned by a conglomerate, Newcastle rarely enlivens the transfer market.

Now that the World Cup is over and most players have gained more experience to play effectively when the Premier League resumes, lots of signing will start going on Wolverhampton about confirming Cunha signing the Premier League as it is coming fresh and coming with a lot of amazing packages installed with it.

saka is an amazing England player, david Beckham really praised Bukayo Saka's performance in the past world cup 2022, I see arsenal really lucky to have him. I'm sure Bukayo Saka will be able to bring Arsenal to win the EPL this season.

Transfer news are concentrating more on Chelsea and ManU.
Chelsea doesn't seem to be in contact with CR7 yet, I believe they think he isn't useful for them anymore, otherwise they picked him already, no? I am not sure if Saudis are still interested on signing him. We will see how this will end anyway.
Bellingham to Liverpool? Rabiot to ManU? There is also other players from Croatia, Morocco, Argentina and USA that might join EPL this winter.

Now that the World Cup is all over, The premier league would be no doubt be more exciting as players would now return to their various clubs with great experience gotten from playing in the World Cup. I particularly would love to see Manchester United with its complete squad play a game. I’m pretty sure they would win. I think Manchester United’s Rashford has gotten better in his gameplay and has acquired some level of experience playing in the World Cup. I’m eager for the premier league to resume cause it’s going to be sure exciting.

[sana54210]

Manchester united need a new talented striker who can display what Messi and Mbappe displayed in the FIFA world cup competition, and they are ready to pay any amount of money to sign such player into the team. I don't think, Griezmann is good for that position because his performance in his formal team Barcelona was not too good before he moved to Atletico Madrid which will be some disadvantage that will make Manchester united coach not to sign him. If Manchester united coach can be able to get a new talented striker before next month, I think, they will definitely drag the first position with Manchester city before the end of this tournament.

So far several players have been linked with Manchester United, but I don't know exactly who they will sign. Several Dutch players have been heavily rumored to land at Manchester United, Gakpo and Memphis Depay maybe. I'm also thinking about the possibility of De Jong for Manchester United, he's good as a midfielder having previously failed to reach a deal.

I understand that Erik Tan Hag is Dutch and he got some players from Ajax as well, but he got Casemiro as well which proves that he is open to getting players from other clubs too. Dutch players such as De Jong and Depay would be great of course, but he should not focus on turning United into the best Dutch team, it's an English team and more importantly it's a global team, should look for other players too.

Depay wouldn't make a big difference enough over Rashford, and Rashford has been great, if they are going to get a striker then they should just focus on getting a striker, not a million other players from the same place with same level.

If you look at national competitions, the EPL is the most highly regarded competition in the world. They do have a much stronger competition than other European countries such as Germany, Spain and Italy. Teams can only participate in the absolute top of the countries. Curious how Arsenal will do at the start of the 2nd league half. It is inevitable that there will be a certain pressure at Arsenal. They will have played without pressure at the beginning of the season, but in the meantime they are really thinking about possible title chances. Manchester City has that pressure differently, because they know they have so much quality that the points will come naturally. At Arsenal it could just collapse in one fell swoop. Something I don't see happening at Manchester City.

[Pokapoka124]

Honestly I don't think Griezmann is playing that much bad at Atletico Madrid now. He has had quite nice amount of assists and goals so far. He can do better than this of course but I still find it enough considering his playing style. He likes to be helpful for his teammates at the same time. He isn't a striker who is fully focused on only scoring goals.

Manchester United would make use of a beneficial player like him honestly. However I wonder how much he would cost them. Because if he doesn't adapt well to the team they might have difficulties in selling him. He isn't young anymore so there wouldn't be many teams willing to pay a lot of money for his wage. Maybe a loan deal might be thought of for Manchester United.

Manchester united need a new talented striker who can display what Messi and Mbappe displayed in the FIFA world cup competition, and they are ready to pay any amount of money to sign such player into the team.

If Manchester united coach can be able to get a new talented striker before next month, I think, they will definitely drag the first position with Manchester city before the end of this tournament.

Every club wants a striker like Messi, Ronaldo and Mbappe that is why clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester City and PSG rush in at any chance they get at any new prospect and splash the cash to get them at all cost. To get such a striker in the market today requires so much efforts and big money spending to get them to join your team. Manchester United need more fire power to succeed this season especially in the attacking role and creativity in the midfield.

[ShowOff]

Newcastle have proved that they can compete favorably with other top flight teams in the English Premier league. The played a 3-3 draw against Manchester City, 0-0 draw with Manchester United. They beat Tottenham 2-1 and won Chelsea 1-0. How else do you want them to prove their ability. Newcastle have one of the best teams currently and the management of the club has the financial power to attract and buy more quality players.  
I believe Newcastle even have a better chance of performing better than other top four clubs because they are not competing for any continental trophy which means that their players can just focus on winning the premiership.

Manchester City and Manchester United didn't lose to Newcastle, they only drew. Chelsea and Tottenham are the two teams they managed to overthrow, but not about Arsenal and Liverpool. So I don't think Newcastle have been better, but their form so far has been good.

You can't expect much from Newcastle anyway, so even if they play well and avoid more defeats, there is always a high risk of including them in your betting slip. I know that, and it means they are not believed enough to be able to keep their performance.

[emrecemsan]

Harry Kane must have returned to the Premier League being sad about the penalty he missed. Because it caused England to be out of the World Cup. However I still don't want to put all the blame on Kane for England's being eliminated. Kane's general performance was still at a nice level in my opinion. I expect him to be fully motivated for Tottenham's fixture from now on. They will need his scoring skills a lot here. He is currently the top scorer of the team in the Premier League in the end. Even while Son wasn't able to play decently Kane was still making up for that.

Kane's future at Tottenham is unknown for now as well. I don't think he is very eager to extend his contract for now. He must be waiting to see how much successful they will be this season. He wouldn't have much problem on finding a better team for himself with this performance so I think he is doing the right thing now.

[darewaller]

Dutch players such as De Jong and Depay would be great of course, but he should not focus on turning United into the best Dutch team, it's an English team and more importantly it's a global team, should look for other players too.

Depay wouldn't make a big difference enough over Rashford, and Rashford has been great, if they are going to get a striker then they should just focus on getting a striker, not a million other players from the same place with same level.

If Erik Ten Haq is brining more Dutch players it's natural because we have many records like these with coaches bring players form their native country but here right now problem is how to settle Manchester United players and bring a winning unit for this I have feeling brining Depay is surely not going to work because here Griezmann is much better and quality player hopefully they will think about this and try to bring him for remaining part of this season.

De Jong is also not happy with current Manchester United situation, and he doesn't want to join but due to Barcelona management decision most chances now this transfer will also happen in January which will be good for them but still things are not easy for them because they already have few players but now want to put them at selling list and having better quality players into their squad.

But I would say if Newcastle want to qualify for the Champions League they need to strengthen their squad. The team should bring star players. Newcastle's owner is very rich. But we don't know yet whether they are interested in spending money to strengthen the team.

After change of management there was hope about Newcastle United will be at his best in coming years but no one was expecting they will do this all quickly and have 3rd rank in Premier League table which is surely amazing stuff from them with average players consistency is also amazing now they are trying to have few quality players which will increase their strength and chance of staying at the top of league table for the chance of Champions League spot for next season.

Currently, few players are in connection with Newcastle United which is good signal and with this surely things could be improved, and they will do better after start of Premier League after break if they will stay into top four which is possible then surely we will have end of few good teams in Premier League because right now few are struggling and in case of failure things could be worst for them.
