Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Asiska02]

Another defeat for Chelsea. The Spurs are difficult to beat at home, but we should have expected a bit more from Chelsea. So far, all purchased players have not been able to leave their mark on the matches. If this continues, Chelsea will have to consider appointing a more experienced or talented manager. The season is a failure, but it could still be saved by putting in a good final sprint.

Chelsea has already been a huge disappointment this season. After so many chances to recover from all of their losses and big point losses, they keep losing matches and have no hope of ever winning again. It's past time they fired the new coach who has forced them to spend a lot of money on new players with little to show for it. He is constantly changing his starting XI and lacks consistency.

In my opinion, his contract was far too large to begin with; he should have been given a shorter contract year before being considered for a longer one. There's no need to think about not relieving him of his duties now that it appears he won't be able to save Chelsea again.

Meanwhile, Manchester United look set to take the EFL cup with ease as they lead 2-0 against Newcastle United after just over 50 minutes. Every prize you win is one that counts.

It was a great victory for the great Manchester United after they went more than 5 years without winning a trophy, and they still hold the most trophies in the Premier League game. Manchester United are remarkable these days, and I wouldn't be surprised if they win more cups this season. Congratulations to GGMU.

What do Coach Potter from Chelsea now? Shouldnt he give up soon and let someone else take his place? 6 games without a win, that is a disaster and i dont know how many years ago something like that happened at Chelsea. Im surprised there was no red card today, Ziyech close to get one. The motivation is bad and the frustration is rising, which usually leads a player to getting a red card. Where is the news "Coach Potter fired"?... something has to change quickly.

Sadly, Todd Boehly has not fired Blues coach Graham Potter despite the frustrated expressions on their faces. The club is going through a terrible moment right now, and they have a losing streak in league games. Tottenham Hotspur defeated the Blues 2–0, and I believe Chelsea should suffer humiliation because their coach is a lousy individual with no track record to speak of. Supporters have begun to voice their displeasure; Todd Boehly needs to act in the best interests of the team before we find ourselves suffering in the relegation zone.

Congratulations to Manchester United on winning the carabao cup, it’s really been good times for Manchester United, they have really rejuvenated the team back to back victories even defeating Barcelona to qualify for the next round in the Europa cup

Newcastle has also had some good games, respect to them but this night Manchester United was just too much for them, the game was controlled by United and it was a deserved win.

[baeva]

Compared to Arsenal's game against Leicester City earlier, Manchester City is having there best time with Bournemouth. I felt they would win even before the game began because, they just needed to, following the Leicester 0:1 Arsenal win, there isn't much choice for them to lose points.
They are already 2 goals ahead and good enough, Erling Haaland is back to scoring. His hot one goal, set up by P. Foden to give him an easy finish and from the way the game has been carrying, he's probably going to have a couple more chance to get a brace in the game. There is time on the click to accommodate that and Pep is sure to give him the palting time he deserves.

It is much more difficult for Arsenal to win a match against Leicester than Manchester City against Bournemouth. Even I think Manchester City will win this match with a high score like 4 or 5 goals because now they have scored 3 goals.

Alvarez, Haaland and Phil Foden each scored and closed the first half with a 0-3 advantage over their opponents. So it's quite possible to get Manchester City to win the match by 4 or 5 goals today following Arsenal's tough win.

Of course Arsenal had to be difficult, because Leicester City is a very uncomfortable opponent, especially at home. But after watching the match there is only one thought - boredom. The match was really very boring, very few dangerous moments, and even the score is minimal: 1-0, what was it all about?

I'm not surprised by this result, because Arsenal from what I see will be more concentrated on defense, and on attack it's enough that they score goals so that they can win the games, with so much pressure from City, at this moment Arsenal has to focus on have a good defense and hope that city loses points against other opponents, a victory is still a victory even if they only score 1 goal, of course the problem with a team that cannot score many goals is when they play against opponents who have good defense, but the arsenal is fine. at least for now they are still number one in the table


Liverpool 0 - 0 crysta palace

liverpool is not well in the attack, honestly I can't understand why liverpool has been making great signings for the attack, since liverpool lost the mane, liverpool attack has been shit, and the liverpool coach has been making bad signings for the attack, I can't understand why they are hiring players that don't even have 30% of talent that the man had, it doesn't make sense, liverpool doesn't even have a good team for next season, at this rate it will end with the coach being fired

I'm not arguing that they're fine, but lately I've been seeing a trend of them getting kind of weaker. If you compare the first half of the season and what we have now, the style of play is a little different, so is the result. Sitting in defense the whole game, scoring the minimum number of goals and hoping that's enough is not soccer, it's a "bus" style that will eventually stall

Potter is neither a great nor an experienced coach. But we could also say the same about Ten Hag, who has not trained any major clubs apart from Ajax. It is always a risk when you appoint a new coach, it can turn out good or very bad as is the case now. When looking for a new coach for Chelsea, do you take a new gamble by looking for a young talented coach or do you play it safe and take a coach who has a lot of experience in this field? Either way, Chelsea needs to change something. It's not that it's getting a little better every week, it's going and will continue to go bad.

I agree with you, Potter is not a great or experienced coach. Now it's gone from bad to worst what happened to Chelsea. Potter must do the honorable thing, just step down otherwise Chelsea will soon be battling relegation.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Chelsea continue to fall in the Premier League standings. I think the club's management will change the head coach in the near future. What can save Potter? Perhaps only winning the Champions League. But with such a game it's unlikely. And does Potter want to stay at Chelsea? Perhaps he's already looking for a new club to work for.

I agree with you there is no way to save Potter, 5 matches without win even 2 matches ended with losing obviously this is very embarrassing for a team like Chelsea
In the game Chelsea is not too bad it's just that they always fail to scored even though they have a great new player so what exactly is the problem?
This season reminds me of the 2015/2016 season at that time Chelsea finished ranked 10th even though 2014/2015 Chelsea is the winner of the Premier League
It seems that they repeat the same moment this season, finished in the top 9-12 and without a title   the money they spent this season had no impact.

[trendcoin]

It is really unbelievable. Chelsea just literally can't score a goal. There have been so many matches just like that for Chelsea in the recent times. I wonder if they have a meaningful explanation for this.
...

Chelsea have a great squad on paper, but on the pitch they are a really bad team. They have trouble scoring goals because they don't have a quality target striker. If Lukaku gets fit, he could get a chance to play when he returns to Chelsea next year. Maybe he could play even as he is now. Chelsea are so helpless.

...
It is very normal to see Potter being criticised for this. He has been managing the team for so many weeks. You would expect them to show some improvement normally right?

I think Potter might be the most innocent person in the current situation. He did everything to get fired. What more can he do? Chelsea club managers make mistake by resisting change. They've done a good job signing a lot of potential promising players, but they're about to destroy the potential future.

Tottenham Hotspur was very good in the defence and with the level of attacking football that Tottenham players are putting out it seems like there are not ready to take any loss this season, Chelsea, on the other hand, is totally down this season and we can't expect any recovery from them soon.

-Manchester United also won their match against Newcastle united, but then Manchester united have Barcelona to contend with in the coming days of this season.,  Barcelona will be a big match for Manchester United this season.

Congratulations to Erik ten Hag for lifting his first trophy with the red devils. It's one smooth night celebration for the red devil, old Trafford is red and the fans chanting victorious songs against Newcastle fans. Eddie Howe and his men did his best but his best wasn't good enough against a top team like Manchester united. A time for Erik ten Hag to build a new legacy in Manchester united, and this time it will be a memorable one for the reds.

Tuchel was removed because he was a remnant from the past owner of Chelsea. The new owner needed someone who he could believe in as the right choice, but clearly he has made a mistake with Graham Potter. Bad thing is that Chelsea gave him a five year contract and to let him go now will mean them paying him off hugely since they are the ones breaching the contract. They have spent a lot this season and know that letting Graham Potter go will cost them more money, so perhaps the best choice for the business is to give him some more time maybe till next season.

During the time when they sacked Thomas Tuchel, I did say that they will definitely feel the heat and regret on that decision as time goes on and now it already happening.
Potter poor performance now has become worst than Thomas Tuchel poor performance time that lead to his sudden sack.
Chelsea is a big team for Potter to handle and with time if things continue this way, I do think at some point the owner would be left with no option than to sack him. Chelsea couldn't even get a single goal during their match with Tottenham.

I think there is a contract that is signed when a manager is higher to coach a team or club, and the management has the right to decide what they feel is good for the team in their own way, and sacking Tuchel isn't something I took personally even though I condemn the imminent action from Chelsea, however, their choice of Manager with Potter is actually bad despite the hype of new players they break banks and bought, still they are underperforming. Potter has been doing well in other teams way before he came to Chelsea, the performance here is something I can't say a thing about, it is just so poor at this point.

[snipie]

Dunno for how long Chelsea will act like a clown. It is an embarrassment for their fans. Some of them even threatened the coach which reflects how bad the situation there and it could degenerate further.
Today they lost with 2-0 vs Spurs, 2 successive defeats and 6 matches without a win. Their defeats outnumbered their victory
Next match vs Leeds, hopefully they could win this time..

[Fara Chan]

In the second half, Tottenham managed to put on a remarkable performance. Chelsea played well in the first half but in the second half Tottenham managed to take control of the game and secure victory.

At the start of the match between Chelsea and Tottenham, Tottenham was superior to Chelsea, which this season the team's performance has greatly decreased, it is clear that we predict that Tottenham will lead this match and get a number of points to stay in the top 4 of the league standings, so far Chelsea in some of the games have not been very good, I think Chelsea need to change it because it is very important for the strength of the team, actually they have some players who are doing well.

It is not acceptable that Liverpool drew today's match. Because Liverpool is a much better team than the opposition team, but in today's match, the opposition team stopped Liverpool brilliantly.

By looking at the performance shown by Liverpool in the Premier League, I think this is natural for them, even though sometimes they don't perform very well in the Premier League and only focus on the Champions League, I think they also don't look very attractive in the Champions League, after all, they met Real Madrid in the round of 16, with their declining form, is a serious opponent for them. Even though Real Madrid did not perform very well yesterday in several matches in Laliga, I think Real Madrid is still very much ahead of Liverpool, especially in the Champions League.

This has been long overdue, and firing Graham Potter is the best thing to do right now. He was overhyped, and in the end, there was no result to show for it. I'd rather keep Thomas Tuchel than hire a new coach like Graham Potter. He has failed in his role as a coach's leadership; he should give other people in that position of coach a chance. I hope Chelsea makes a quick decision and seeks a savior to assist the team during this critical time.

with the current situation of Chelsea, it was not surprising to see this game lost the game against Tottenham today now I think the fans are even more because of the team situation and I'm not gonaing to be shocked if I see Potter got gire even tomorrow morning because the recent match they had and the points they lost during this season.

[Minor Miner]

It is really unbelievable. Chelsea just literally can't score a goal. There have been so many matches just like that for Chelsea in the recent times. I wonder if they have a meaningful explanation for this.

The supporters must be out of patience now. Just think about it. Your team are even struggling at scoring a single goal. They couldn't do much against Tottenham as well today. Their defending was also not satisfying at all. I really don't know how long they can go on like this. They are like racing with Liverpool about which team can be worse.    It is very normal to see Potter being criticised for this. He has been managing the team for so many weeks. You would expect them to show some improvement normally right?

I do not understand why the owner of Chelsea is so confident about Potter being the coach. Potter is being backed up with a lot of money. But he is not being able to bring good results. So what's the point of having him as the coach then? How many times Chelsea is going to perform like this and still the coach is going to say that the team is not perfect yet and better times are coming?

It is absolutely dumb to still keep Potter as the coach. And he deserves to be criticized. Coaches do take time, I realize that. But he should be bringing results by now.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The most interesting match today in the English premier league is the match between Tottenham and Chelsea which has started already, it is 24 minutes in this match and is 0:0 for now, however both team are making great impact in other to outshine each other, the visiting team has under performed since the resumption of league football after the international break and the might make it right in this game.

It's not even an interesting match. Chelsea plays so badly like the previous match against soton. Totenham was leading the match. Potter is a crazy coach. This coach was still giving felix chance to play in starting line up. Felix was performing so badly. The goal happened caused by felix didn't even give an effort to fight for the ball. felix was also playing individually. This guy is always dribbling without the right direction. Almost all of the new players were contributing nothing to the match.

Havertz, Mount, and ziyech were performing so badly. I saw how todd was seeing his club goes to the relegated zone very soon.

Graham Potter should be sacked immediately. He has been given enough time to change this team but he has proved his incompetence and inability to manage a big club. Tottenham is winning by two goals to nothing and Chelsea looks like relegation-bound team. I hope Todd Boehly realized that sacking Thomas Tuchel was a mistake. Potter is making Chelsea look like a common team.

The truth is I feel some pain for Graham Potter, but there is no way to defend him, that he lost by 1 goal does not look so bad, but losing by 2 goals is already something that means too much, personally it is likely that they are going to do without their services, it is something that does not make me happy, we will have to wait and see what they decide.

Chelsea is a team that is missing something, I don't know, but they have to be more efficient, now Chelsea have very good players and they have to show everything they have, 'because the owners of the team want to see the benefits of the enormous investment they have made. Another technician in the crosshairs? A Zidane would be excellent.

I was not surprised that Chelsea lost to Tottenham Hotspur.
This is because Tottenham is not a small club. They have good strikers and players in the club. I already know that Chelsea will continue to struggle for some months before they will come back to their normal good form and that will be by next season.

Meanwhile, I saw a meme that said that the last time Chelsea won match was as far back as the Year 2022

It’s definitely something to worry about and the patience of the fans are quickly running thin. I think with this loss, the morale of both the management, the players and the fans are running an all time low. The situation is really bad and doesn’t look like they’re coming out of their bad spell anytime soon.
Hopefully, they could go ahead and win their game against Leeds and claim the 3 points. And if they lose even that game, then perhaps all hope may have been lost for the lads at Chelsea. I do hope they win. They really need a win right now.

[Pulsar77]

I watched the Crystal Palace v Liverpool match and it could really be one of the most boring matches. Crystal Palace couldn't do anything against Liverpool actually. It was just the thing Liverpool wanted. But they still couldn't score a single goal while there was a good opportunity ahead to get a win. Salah wasn't good enough at all with his shots. Klopp is still obstinate about putting Gakpo in the centre-forward position but I still believe this is a very wrong choice.

I want to see Firmino there from now on. Maybe he had a lasting injury but he is back and he deserves the chance. Because he was very productive with his goals for the team before the injury. It'd be better to see Gakpo as a winger.
