Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[KupaCrypto]

If Chelsea should continue this way then they should say bye bye to top 4,  currently on 25 points maybe a draw would have be ok, but loosing a game like this in this critical time might prove so costly later in the campaign. Manchester city just have a way of grinding out results from games like this and it's a great one. So they now close the gap between them and Arsenal who dropped points some days ago against Newcastle, if Chelsea are expecting anything possible our of this campaign then they have to buckle up fast.

Even though Chelsea lost against Manchester City, its fans will be happy with the way the team played. In comparison to their previous games, Chelsea performed far better. Chelsea fought hard against Manchester City, but their luck ran out when it came to scoring.

It is funny if Chelsea fans are happy. Today, Chelsea was defeated by Man City. While in the previous match, they got a draw. Chelsea got 0 points today, but they got 1 point previously. The previous match is still better than today's match, right? Well, I believe Chelsea fans don't care about how Chelsea players played, the focus is on the points. With getting 0 points, Chelsea is in 10th place now. It is a shame, how can a big team like Chelsea stay in 10th place in EPL standings? Ideally, Chelsea should be in the top 5.

that's right, regardless of anything they still haven't made me happy with a performance like this.
Their game was still very losing even though in this match they lost by 1 goal, but they still couldn't improve their performance. Now they have been knocked down to 10th place in the standings what should they be happy about because this is a bad thing.

Happy based on performance not about losing the match to Manchester City. That's what I meant.

If Chelsea had been performing like this, they won't have lost or drawn some of their matches the way they did. Their 10th position is not encouraging at all but let's not forget that some of their best players are on the injury.

Sincerely what Chelsea needs badly is a striker that can help do the scoring.

Playing good without scoring in football means nothing and these teams mostly lose the game.. City was able to score a precious goal and with this win, they were able to reduce the gap to 5 points between them and Arsenal.
By mid-february, there will be hard games for both City and gunners including games vs Spurs, ManU and between each other where the first rank could change

Indeed, loss means loss.
Chelsea probably expects at least to have a drawn match that is why they seem to be defensive in this match. Because Chelsea may have realized that their strength, especially their attack line, was far below Man City, so they could hold off to a draw as best they could, but it didn't work. But, this will not work for a club like Man City. Although Man City was quite difficult to score even with many efforts, at least, they could make it once by Mahrez. Unfortunately in this match, Haaland did not score a goal.

I expected Chelsea to win though because they dominated the game in the first half, created a number of chances but couldn't get the goals coming. Losing Raheem Sterling in the first half wasn't so good and it got a negative effect on tbe team. Manchester city were able to reduce the gap from league  leaders Arsenal. The goal in the 63rd minutes was able to guarantee all three points for Manchester City.

Manchester City only got 1 point, it was unexpected that Manchester City, which currently has the ideal composition of players, actually should be able to score more goals than that. But that 1 goal was the only proof that Chelsea was completely unable to equalize.

If you look at the following matches, the results of Manchester City and Arsenal are clearly not easy to predict and Arsenal, with a capital difference of 5 points, is even more threatened. The match against Tottenham also doesn't look easy, so Manchester City also needs to consider Manchester United at this time. Their last match was 6-3 last October with Manchester City winning, but looking at the performance of Erik Ten Hag's troops now, hopefully, it can be a little different. Moreover, the match is the Manchester derby, for sure both of them will do their best.

No, Manchester City got 3 points in this game. Maybe you mean the 1 goal they got in this match.

But on the other hand I think that unexpected conditions can happen but Arsenal are still strong and 1 point against Newcastle is actually still very good because Newcastle's performance this season is very different. As for Manchester City, it is clear that they must continue to get 3 points like this. 5 points looks still quite small but this is clearly difficult to catch up with Arsenal's current performance.

Again, Chelsea did not get points and luck in the match against Manchester City, this was a very bad thing for Chelsea because the team had to lose in front of their own fans and kept Manchester City on the competitive path with Arsenal because the points gap had begun to be trimmed again. I think Chelsea is really not having a good performance this season and it is likely that the Chelsea team will also be more easily beaten by their opponents in the Champions League this season.

Arsenal was perfectly fine with that 1 point against Newcastle and as you said, why would they risk during the later phase of the game to actually throw away that 1 point and go all in? They played it the right and the smart way in this case. Haven't lost a game in a long time, tie against their strongest contenders and keep the distance more or less (except for Manchester City who made up for 2 points, but still).

Losing such a key game can also end up in more than just losing two or three points. It can take away momentum and also decrease the positive sentiment within the team and mean a hit to the overall strong moral. This way they are still ok and in the back of their head they also know that Manchester City loses points here and there over and over again this season.

The Fans are happy because only lost 1 different goal, in fact, the fans don't have much hope for this match because many predict out there Chelsea will lose at least 2-3 goals because from the Manchester City squad, Haaland is currently on fire. But even lost Chelsea shows us they don't just give up the winning, their defender is good to block bait from the center. When I look this, I just miss Tuchel, this guy know how to counter-attack if Chelsea get that kind of pressure like that, maybe win or at least draw.

The goal in the 63rd minutes was able to guarantee all three points for Manchester City.

Pep knew what they had to do in the second half and changing their two defenders at the start of the second half was the right decision I think.
On the other hand their dominance in possession and chances were increased again in the second half and the result was not bad. goals from Mahrez were the only ones that were created in this match but indeed even though they closed the distance with Arsenal they still couldn't relax especially since their points were still 5 points away.

The second half was a total different experience in the game, Manchester City returned better and stronger they tried to gain control of the game and reduced the pressure chelsea was throwing at them. Not the best performance for Manchester city but the important thing is that they were able to get a win from the game. Chelsea tried to get a comeback but weren't able to work something out and get that last finishing touch to get the ball behind the net.

[rendravolt]

Chelsea still got bad results after losing to Manchester City with a narrow score of 0-1. Even though as hosts, Chelsea should have been able to put pressure on Man City, but they were conceded by Riyad Mahrez's goal in the 63rd minute. If Chelsea continues to get bad results in every game then they will not be able to stay in the EPL for the next season. Now Chelsea are in 10th place in the standings, making their history sink even more.

I think the arrival of coach Graham Potter can make the Chelsea players return to their best performance, but it seems that it has not been successful enough so far. Chelsea's next opponent is Fulham, but Fulham is now also very strong compared to the previous season, Chelsea must be vigilant if they want to get a win in this match.

This is a bad result that we shouldn't be surprised to see, yes that's because even before the game Chelsea always got bad results even with more opponents. In this match Manchester City was their opponent so this defeat was no longer surprising, fortunately only one goal was created throughout the match. Graham Potter hasn't been able to do them any better this season since his arrival.
Manchester City did not waste their chance to be in second place and again reduced their point difference with Arsenal, in the match against Newcastle, Arsenal could only get a draw.

I don't even think so. I will always feel doubt with chelsea in the current form. It doesn't matter how big domination that already made by the club as long as it has not good final execution and the result will always be the same.
Losing 1-0 against city was predictable caused by that's so easy to see how bad the performance from the club right now. Im thinking about another possibility just like chelsea will not able to participate in the champion league caused by the bad performance. This has been a few times for me seeing chelsea dominating the match but it was losing. This club was so bad right now. People shall never expect a good result from this club.
Chelsea under todd was the worst

[Bobrox]

Chelsea are in difficult position right now after suffering their 6th defeat in the Premier League from Manchester City, I pessimistic with Chelsea opportunity back to top fourth standing position looking on current 10 points behind Manchester United as the latest team for UEFA Champion League spot zone.

I think for Primer League tittle have close totally for Chelsea looking on current standing behind 19 points, seems crazy with Chelsea performance in this season and Graham Potter failed bring back Chelsea to the top standing placed. I don't think how long his position secure as Chelsea manager looking underperformance until right now and Chelsea dropped to 10th position standing awhile in Primer League.

In fact, Manchester City continued to try to penetrate the Chelsea defense since the first half. But I think Chelsea's defense in this match was quite extraordinary for the first half. But in the second half, Manchester City's attack efforts just bore fruit. 1 goal which means a lot because with this win, of course Manchester city is getting closer to catching up with Arsenal's points. Chelsea have also struggled very well throughout this match. However, a solid defense was still not enough to beat Manchester city. but I think Chelsea's counter-attack pattern is quite good. and I think going forward Chelsea will be even better. maybe I'm a little disappointed with the results of this match. because I chose to bet on Chelsea. But I am quite satisfied with the performance of both teams in this match.

Chelsea's 2023 is off to a rough start. The Blues are ten points away from the top four and ten points away from relegation. EPL point table shows Chelsea at 10th position; with the way Chelsea are playing presently, Chelsea might not climb back to the top. Having the injury at the wrong time is just too stressful for the team. The coach has my trust because the team would have been in a better position without the injury.

Manchester City Club is very good and the club is in great form with great players.  Chelsea club scored 1-0.  They ended up today because Chelsea missed too many attacks.  And Manchester City made a few attacks to get a ball into Chelsea's goal post.  Manchester City have more experience and the course is more experienced which is why they have a one goal lead despite Manchester City's lack of attack.

The worst situation happened to Chelsea, they are in the 10th standings table at this time, which is very far from finishing fourth in the EPL, so it will likely be difficult for Chelsea to catch up to it, even though there are still many remaining matches, while the teams above them are playing quite well compared to Chelsea, who continue to lose. and indeed to face Manchester City was so hard like it or not, Chelsea had to submit to this defeat and Potter had not been able to bring Chelsea to a comfortable place after being left by Tuchel.

We'll see in the transfer season how many players have been brought to Chelsea, it's also reported that Enzo Fernandes will be brought in by Chelsea at a high price, how influential he is at Chelsea after arriving, and this isn't valid, all the news is new, the Benfica coach doesn't want selling Enzo Fernandes.
It looks like Chelsea will keep trying despite the 120 million EUR clause.

Chelsea is really in a difficult period. The Blues have suffered a number of poor results in the Premier League and are clearly finding it difficult to get back on their feet. Chelsea were only able to pick up one win from eight matches, this was really a very bad achievement for Potter.

Since changing leadership, the big name Chelsea, which is one of the giants in the Premier League, seems to have sunk. If the Blues are unable to qualify for Europe, of course the situation will get worse because it will be very difficult to rebuild a solid squad. For Chelsea management, now still has time to immediately evaluate the squad as a whole including Potter.

Manchester City Club is very good and the club is in great form with great players.  Chelsea club scored 1-0.  They ended up today because Chelsea missed too many attacks.  And Manchester City made a few attacks to get a ball into Chelsea's goal post.  Manchester City have more experience and the course is more experienced which is why they have a one goal lead despite Manchester City's lack of attack.

This is not related to experience but about the team's performance , no one doubts Chelsea's experience they have it
It's just that since last season until this season the team's performance has continued to decline they seem to have lost confidence
Several new players were brought in not as expected even though Chelsea has spent a lot of money.

As far as i know that chelsea didn't make so many attacks. Chelsea was trying so hard but none of chelsea's attack was effective.  Chelsea is still having very bad performance at this moment while manchester city was able using the golden opportunity to make a goal against chelsea and winning the match. Chelsea was always doing shit in any match. Chelsea seems still continue the bad trend until there will a big change in the club.
The change of its coach didn't give a lot of impact to the performance from the club. How the hell chelsea hired unprofessional coach like potter
