Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

With this dismissal, Chelsea again had to spend quite a lot of money for terminating Potter's contract, which was still quite a long time there. Chelsea really spent a lot of money this season, buying players and firing coaches and in time by making contracts for new coaches, because Bruno Saltor, who was Potter's assistant before, will be a temporary on that place. Chelsea already has pretty good player material at the moment, they only need an experienced coach to be able to bring them to be more competitive.

I wish the pitfall Chelsea is experiencing could serve as a point of reference or precedence to new owners of clubs in the future that they don't have to make rash and rapid changes in a club they just set in by sacking out the old management body from the top to bottom when it could have been done in a gradual process knowing full well that such changes could affect the teams performance negatively.
The sack of Potter is a welcome development that has been on delay by Boehly cause his incompetence in managing a team like Chelsea was written all over the wall even in the first quarter of the EPL season when he got into the club and any new coach that would be coming in now has a lot of responsibility and expectations to shoulder wish could be overwhelming should Boehly make another mistake of hiring a new coach not different from the pedigree of Potter when it comes to coaching experiences in Europe.  News has it that Julian Nagelsmann is favourite for the position as it stands.

Man United played seriously but But they were weaker than Newcastle and could not resist them. Man United tried their best to do well but to no avail. Man United's next match is against Brentford.  They must do well on the day to stay in a good position on the points table.  Because Brentford is a much weaker team than them, this is their chance to score well and collect good points. It seems they can.  Because they have that confidence in themselves

I wouldn’t say exactly that Manchester United is weaker than Newcastle cause in my opinion, they’re not. And the manner in which the lads played wasn’t at their best. Manchester United simply played poorly and couldn’t utilize any chance they got which ended up in a loss for them.
 
Man United’s next game with Brentford doesn’t look so tough. But then, I wish Man United would not underestimate the abilities of their opponents and go on to lose that match too. At this point, Manchester United desperately needs a win and hopefully, they would get that win in their next game with Brentford.

I also think that they played really bad,if you see the statistics you will see that they had less chances than Newcastle which means overall Newcastle dominated the game despite this domination not being as open as many think of the word "domination".

I would not say that the next game with Brentford does not look so tough as we just need to remind Manchester United last three games results and in there you will see a 0-0 draw when they played at home against Southampton.This Brentford team surely is much better than Southampton so it won't be that easy although I think Manchester will be able to get a narrow win here.

Manchester United's defeat again. It really makes me feel bad to see the once best teams performing so badly now. Newcastle had a fantastic performance in the match. Day by day small teams are increasing their strength and proving themselves in front of football fans.

This is EPL where expectations from a coach is high, and if a coach can't meet up the priorities of a club, he will be relieved of his duty. Graham Potter almost succeeded in wrecking the club, so I'm relieved to see him gone. Todd Boehly and the supporters gave him enough time to turn the club around, but I guess he turned it down at critical times. Despite having talented players, Chelsea has struggled to win games due to the structure used and the lack of a standby method when the primary one isn't performing as intended.

Chelsea team is having a very bad period and this started even before poter comes to the club, i think the problem is deeper and administration should find solutions quickly to save the club, im not saying poter is a good coach but what happening need many changes not just a new coach

Chelsea is a big team, of course this team must be handled by a coach who has qualified experience, Graham Potter is not yet fit to coach a team as big as Chelsea, the pressure he receives is enormous and his experience is not sufficient enough to be able to withstand it all.

the decision taken by Chelsea's management was very correct, there was no longer any reason to retain Graham Potter, they had given enough time and players were quite capable even in the transfer last January there were several expensive players who were recruited according to Graham Potter's wishes but Chelsea's performance not getting better.
this is a good decision and Chelsea certainly won't get anything this season, they have to focus on looking forward to a much better next season.

I don't know why Thomas Tuchel was fired and Graham Potter was coached. Thomas Tuchel was a good enough coach. However, he was fired and Potter was appointed coach of the team. Graham Potter could not improve the team. Rather, Chelsea's performance has deteriorated day by day. And Chelsea management's decision to sack Graham Potter was correct. But now the Chelsea management must look for an experienced coach. If the coach is not experienced, I do not expect any improvement in Chelsea's performance. Chelsea also needs more talented players in attack.

In the newcastle vs Man United match, everyone thought that Man United might win the match. But that did not happen. The players of the Man United team performed poorly. Because of that, Man United could not score any goals in the match. What I noticed was the goalkeeper of the Man United team, D. de Gea.  .Had a very bad performance in the match. For which Man United was behind by 2 goals in the game. Newcastle team player J. Willock scored the first goal in 65 minutes. And the 2nd goal was scored by C. Wilson in 88 minutes.

I was expecting Manchester United to have some difficulties in this away match. Because Newcastle were one of the dangerous teams in the league and they were fighting for the same goal in this season too. However this result and Manchester United's performance level were worse than I expected. They just struggled a lot at defending their opponent here which encouraged Newcastle players to play with a more attacking style.

David de Gea was still successful as he made many saves. But he didn't have much thing to do about those goals because they were a result of defensive mistakes.

The top five teams are still in the running for the top four spots. Manchester United still doesn't have a spot in the top four. They have recently lost ground. Their performances are weak, the midfield is deficient, and Casemiro's absence costs the club dearly. Ten Tag is to blame for his yesterday's feature because of several mistakes he made with the unexpected lineup. And because they keep losing games that could cost them points, they might not be able to play in the Champions League the next year.

[Issa56]

It's just the feeling of gamblers who have lost not a real trap  indeed when watching this match it was clear that Newcastle controlled the attack
And Manchester United looked like they couldn't do anything imagine in 90 minutes of match only 1 shot on target so nothing we can expect there

Seriously I was expecting better performance from Manchester united yesterday, I know Newcastle is not a small team but I was not expecting them to win Manchester United yesterday, I was thinking Manchester united will win the match before they started, but when the match started and I saw how the two clubs were playing I knew it will be kind of difficult for Manchester united to win the match, but I was not even expecting Newcastle to score two goals yesterday.

If Chelsea can get a coach that will be active like Manchester city coach in this period, I believe it will help them to display well again, because they have potential players that are ready to improve the team.

Bruno Fernandes played badly, Tominay was as bad as the captain in that match. Weghorst was also at a loss for what to do up front as no one was supplying from the middle.
Out of the 11 Manchester United players, only Martinez is the only player to get a rating of 7.6. The rest are below 6.

The competition between Manchester United and Newcastle in the race for third place is getting more exciting. 50 points in total they got in 27 matches but Newcastle managed to sit third because Newcastle United conceded less (19) than Manchester United (37).

David de Gea was still successful as he made many saves. But he didn't have much thing to do about those goals because they were a result of defensive mistakes.

I liked de Gea's performance in that match. It helped a lot not to concede in the first half.

[piebeyb]

Nah it's not trap because if you check on the bookie, Newcastle is the favorite club, so it was expected Newcastle won against Manchester United. Newcastle aren't a weak club, they're currently at top 3 position on the standings. But it's really disappointing to see Manchester United performance, they're only have 6 shots and there's no shot on target.

fortunately I didn't bet on that match because I knew the results would be unexpected for Newcastle and Manchester United because both of them certainly wanted to win and strengthen their position in the league, so I chose not to bet, even though many bet Manchester United to win against Newcastle because previously Manchester United once beat Newcastle in the EFL cup final with the same score of 2 goals. Newcastle's revenge seemed to be avenged yesterday

But I think otherwise. Is it true that teams like Manchester United are being beaten by Newcastle now? The decline of traditional teams day by day will really have a bad effect on football.

Newcastle has succeeded if it was a revenge moves toward their lose to Manchester United in the EFlcup final, but I'm sure they will not have a permanent place in the epl top 4 standing this season. They now sgmhate the some points with man united and that alone is encouraging enough for MU to fight hard and they will sure do that and regain back their position. Manchester United will come out stronger when Casmero returns. But I think Ten Hag still needs another creative defensive midfield in the team seeing that McTominay has very little effect in that position. He contributed to the lose yesterday.

Yes, Newcastle managed to avenge their defeat in the EFL Cup final. Currently, Newcastle's points are the same as Manchester United, which is 50 points and managed to move up to third place in the standings. I think the position of these two teams is not completely secure but I feel confident that The Magpies and Red Devils will qualify for the champions league next season. Tottenham, who are one strip below, have played more once than the two teams above them, then Spurs are also in a transitional period after Conte was sacked. So it's going to be a little tough for them to wade through the rest of the season.

MU's defeat to Newcastle should be a serious concern from Ten Hag. The loss of Casemiro certainly felt a lot, the Red Devils played like they were aimless and even in the midfield there was a lack of creativity so that the Newcastle players were very free to build attacks and play the ball into the MU defense area. I also saw that Ten Hag was also a little wrong in rotating players in the last minute. He shouldn't have replaced Martinez-Varane at the same time and he brought Fred too late. So instead of chasing the goal deficit, they were even punished for conceding another goal ahead of the last minute. This should be an important evaluation for ETH.

THE EFFECT OF SADIO MANE ON LIVERPOOL.

 Sadio mane, the Senegalese born player,  had a successful six seasons stay at Liverpool before parting ways with the club.

During his stay, he was a formidable force in the team, helping them, to win the premier League (2019-2020) season,
Champions League league (2018-2019) season,
Uefa Super Cup(2019),
Club world cup (2019),
Also helping his home country Senegal to win, the African Cup of nations 2021.       I just want to mention this few achievements excluding his individual Awards.

Sadio mane with a combined attacking force like MO SALAH, Liverpool was the talk of the town, Mane always shows a great fighting spirit as a team player, making Liverpool conquer the entire European football that period.
But very recently, that glory liverpool have been enjoying, is dwindling very fast since the departure of Sadio mane to Bayern Munich.

It's too glaring to see the vacuum the exit of mane has created.
Liverpool have been struggling to even maintain a top 5 positive ever since in the English premier League.
So I ask, was it really in the Best interest 🤔 of Liverpool to let Mane go?

I can't say for sure if Newcastle can finish in the top four of the Premier League points table. The way this team has performed this season is truly amazing. I would say Newcastle's is the weakest squad among the top 10 teams in the points table. Still, they are performing well in every match. They won 2-0 against Manchester United in such form yesterday. Although this squad is relatively weak, their performances are very stable due to excellent match tactics and strong bonding between the players.

Newcastle is likely to finish in the top four of the points table. Newcastle's biggest rivals for the top-four battle are Tottenham. Tottenham has played one match more than Newcastle but is 1 point behind than Newcastle. If Newcastle can perform somewhat consistently they will be able to qualify for the Champions League.

after the 0-2 against aston villa and almost 7 months on the bench, fc chelsea has sacked coach Graham Potter. on sunday evening, 'the blues' announced the separation from the 47-yo coach, who won just seven of his 22 premier league games...

I don't understand why they waited so long to fire Graham Potter. Every person gets unsuccessful results in some part of his life and his career goes downhill. In times like these, it is necessary to make changes and start over from the beginning. Chelsea was late but did the right thing.

Julian Nagelsmann, Pochettino and Zinedine Zidane could be Chelsea's new managers. I think the best candidate would be Julian Nagelsmann for Chelsea. Before Bayern Munich, he had great success in Leipzig and Hoffenheim. Chelsea would also be a good test for his career.

The news of the sack of the Chelsea coach came as something of celebration to both fans and the players but then we must be ready to face one reality which is what the performance of Chelsea will be going forward since everyone perceived the coach as the problem of the club.

-I hope the new coach will meet up to the management and fans' expectations and one vital target the new coach should focus on is in delivering a victory for the club at the most expected level.

[uswa56]

This is EPL where expectations from a coach is high, and if a coach can't meet up the priorities of a club, he will be relieved of his duty. Graham Potter almost succeeded in wrecking the club, so I'm relieved to see him gone. Todd Boehly and the supporters gave him enough time to turn the club around, but I guess he turned it down at critical times. Despite having talented players, Chelsea has struggled to win games due to the structure used and the lack of a standby method when the primary one isn't performing as intended.

I think, the decision Chelsea president took by fire Graham Potter is very good because he gave the coach enough time to prove himself as a potential coach he claimed to be but he failed. The problem of Chelsea is not the players but the coach, I think their president will take time to search for a talented coach that can work on the team to recover from all their losses in this season. If Chelsea can get a coach that will be active like Manchester city coach in this period, I believe it will help them to display well again, because they have potential players that are ready to improve the team.

mistakes have been made in the early arrival of Graham Potter and his departure now is also not much different from that same mistake.
Graham Potter really deserved to be kicked out of Chelsea because he really has proven that he is not capable of managing a team as big as Chelsea.
now everything has passed, the season is almost over and Chelsea is very unlikely to penetrate the top 4 of the standings, I think this season is over for Chelsea.
it's a shame when they have very good players this season but Graham Potter was not able to maximize them properly.

It's not only very good but it has been waiting for so many blues fans. If you were always actively watching how reactions from the blues fans after saw their favorite clubs were losing against mediocre team and you will be aware if most of fans already complained to the todd to sack potter since a few months ago. The management just hearing it once chelsea started to enter into the critical situation like going out from top 10 which is very bad achievement that has ever achieved by chelsea in this decade.

The decision to sack potter is the best decision for now. I can't even imagine if chelsea will be going to the relegation zone if potter keeps managing the club. it will be unacceptable result from potter and so many fans will be complaining about that.
Todd boehly needs to hear from what already said by most of fans. Picking naglesmann seems a good choice too. Chelsea needs to work so hard to make naglesmann put trust to the chelsea.

Naglesmann has been targeting by so many great clubs like real madrid too. it will be so bad to missing him.
