Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[TopT3ns]

€40 Million offer by Chelsea is good enough, it's crazy if Manchester United really want to sell him for €80 Million because they don't want to lose their money. It's better for Manchester United to release Maguire to join Chelsea before Pochettino change his mind.

This could be good for Maguire too, maybe he just not comfortable playing in Manchester United, if he can play very well in other team, this would be very interesting.

Harry Maguire has made his best contribution at Manchester United since August 2019 by ending this year at a cheap price, so this will be an opportunity for Chelsea as they try to buy one of the best players from Manchester United. However, what must be considered for Chelsea is that Harry Maguire is already 30 years old, which means he is old, and Chelsea are trying to make an offer of $40 Million. Erik Ten Hag made a pretty brave decision because he had to let go of Harry Maguire for half the price of when Manchester United bought him at the start of his career at Manchester United.

After failing to secure the league title last season as new Rivals Manchester City outplayed them and finished top of the table last season, the club has reacted well by investing hugely to boost the squad this summer. Arsenal now have another chance to compete for the league and every silverware next season. As Kai Harvertz has said that he is looking forward to winning a trophy with Arsenal next season.

That's just my example because if you look at the current conditions, Madrid don't seem too interested in Kane and now Bayern are so intent on bringing this player.
Currently there is something interesting with the drama given between Kane and Bayern because Ange Postecoglu made a statement that was quite sure that Kane would still stay at Tottenham and survive the pursuit of Bayern.
Is this really going to be like before when City just gave up a few seasons ago? Bayern are still quite eager to continue to bid for Kane but currently there are still no real results for that and Bayern's movements are also actually still quite stagnant without much change.

As I said, ''Harry Kane needs to drop loyalty and add cruelty to save himself''. Harry Kane continues to receive a lot of attention from big teams. However, the possibility of the English striker leaving Spurs is very low, if not impossible. Transfer fee is a big obstacle. Harry Kane is the ideal striker, Erik Ten Hag wants him at MU, and Bayern is very enthusiastic. But everything seems so complicated. Tottenham's position is that Harry Kane is not for sale. Because they know that if they lose an iconic player, the club's reputation will be reduced.

It's not the first time Harry Kane has gotten a lot of attention from other teams and had the desire to sign him, but at the same time we've never heard anything coming out of him saying he wants to leave Tottenham or anything like that.

He seems to follow what Tottenham decide, when Tottenham want him to stay he will be happy to stay. When Tottenham intend to sell him then he will accept it.

You are right, a great desire must come from himself, he can rebel if he wants to leave. But he is still in a situation in his comfort zone, and does not want to be released from it.

As I said earlier that for this Kane was too passive so that when many clubs wanted him to join especially with his contract running out he still did not really budge on the grounds that he only wanted to focus on the remaining contract.
In this case the decision he made was not wrong but the problem with statements like that made him seem to lose momentum to leave and in the end stayed at Tottenham as his club while making Tottenham feel a little calm because they set a high price no problem with Kane's condition like this.

Kane is a great player, things like that are often heard but when someone is not too concerned with trophies and only focuses on what he has at the moment especially when there is an opportunity I think it is something that is not very good and that is happening for Kane now.

TBH Arsenal are now looking like a purposeful club again, i love the manner in which they are going about their transfer business this summer, they are buying like a team that has the ambition of winning the EPL, this kind of mood has been missing around Arsenal for many years, but it was reignited after they came close to winning the league last season.

Having said that, whilst i don't think Arsenal are going to win the EPL next season, i think they are getting closer to winning it, and if they continue with this same drive and vision, they'll be champions again, sooner rather than later.

I recently heard that Chelsea are very interested in rescuing Maguire from Manchester United and are considering signing him. I read from some news that now Chelsea has made an offer to Manchester United worth 40 million pounds. On the other hand, my question is whether Pochettino is sure he will bring in a player who is experiencing a decline in performance because it is clear that we know that recently Maguire has often made blunders at Manchester United. Chelsea is in the recovery phase and that means Pochettino really needs to choose a player who is performing well and then who can make a significant contribution to his squad.

That rumor can’t be true because everyone is aware of how Maguire has been a total flop for Manchester United and the blunders he commits are too silly. The rumor came up because of the injury wesley fofana sustained during the week and would be out for couple of months or probably out for the whole season. Fofana is part of the coachs plan for the season and so they are looking for a replacement to fill his space. I don’t think there will be any need to sign a new since Levi Colwill is available and the team has decided he is not for sell, Brighton are doing everything possible to sign him and they are even planning to include him in Caiceido’s deal.

Maguire is being linked to chelsea not because the manager wants him, pochettino clearly will have no use for maguire so why add such player to squad when the team is already flushing out players that are under performing. The team already have Silva and Badiashile already with Chaloba and Colwill to back them up in case of injuries.

At the moment it is still very difficult to get a major title with Manchester United and it will be his dream to win a major title one day.

I thought they can actually build on last season's success, release some fringe players, recruit new players and challenge City for the title until I heard about the resigning of Johnny Evans and I gave up on Manchester United. Based on the club's activity on the transfer market, they don't look ready to me. In my opinion, Arsenal looks more ready than Manchester United. Except they will have to sign another established center back and a striker before the transfer window closes to stand a chance.

Man United can attempt to assemble their team and attempt to contend for the title, but I don't believe they would pose much of a threat to City given the players they intend to bring into the team. They did well by replacing De gea with Onana, but no matter how excellent the goalkeeper is, he will still allow goals without a quality centre back.

Erik Ten Hag made a pretty brave decision because he had to let go of Harry Maguire for half the price of when Manchester United bought him at the start of his career at Manchester United.

You say that Mauire did well at Manchester United and he has made a significant contribution to the Ten Hag squad, well maybe you said that in previous years. Because for now it is clear that Maguire has had a poor performance at Manchester United, he often makes blunders and cannot balance Manchester United's defense at the back. This is the reason why Ten Hag wants to sell him and for now Maguire has no place at Manchester United. There is no reason for Maguire to stay at Manchester United, now is the time for him to decide to leave. The latest news is that now Chelsea has made an offer worth 40 million to Manchester United regarding Maguire, this price is indeed half of Manchester United's previous purchase price which is around 80 million and that means that if Ten Hag agrees to the price clause offered by Chelsea then Manchester United will little loss on the sale. I hope Ten Hag will consider Chelsea's offer because it is pointless if he maintains the high price clause in Maguire's sale, as it will only make other clubs choose to look for other alternatives.

It's a shame what happened to Arteta's squad last season, the trophy is in sight, but as we know, Manchester City is stronger in dominating every game by gaining full points. Now I see Arteta's seriousness in improving his squad by bringing in several quality players. I hope he will think more about the players on the bench so that when regular players get injured they have suitable and good candidates to balance in every next game. For next season I will only focus on Arsenal and I will keep an eye on whether they can win the title from Manchester City.

Is it Kai Harvertz you are taking seriously? Kai has been a total flop recently and I don't see him improving soon. He plays awfully for Chelsea last season and Arsenal should not expect much from him this coming season. We understand Chelsea as a team has been faced with lots challenges but Kai performance as individual was not impressive.

Arsenal are reinforcing and relearning and with the way things went last season, Arsenal will use the disappointment of missing out on the Premier League title to Manchester City last season to come back even stronger when the new campaign gets under way. The recent signings to the team are capable of having a transformative effect in terms of bolstering the quality of the whole team. So I expect them to pull up a big surprise as the season unfolds.

There are many people who are not so sure about Arsenal performance next season but I as an Arsenal fan will say that I agree with your argument that although many doubt Kai Harvertz performance at Arsenal, I am sure that if a new player meets and is trained with an experienced coach, will definitely will create extraordinary talent in the next season with Arsenal.
Some people support Manchester city but I will support Arsenal because for sure City next season will have a target to win the Champions League again so consistent they will be a little disturbed by maintaining the physicality of their players so that this opportunity will be used by Arsenal to get more points to shift City position from the Premier League standings.
I hopes are not too big for Arsenal, I just want my favorite club to win the premier league, to prove that Arsenal can give the best for their fans.

[KTChampions]

Manchester United were good last season under the new coach, this season they will be better. It is two straight wins for the team now in the pre season games, and although these games are not the perfect games to judge how the team will perform next season, it is a good test that can show the direction of the teams progress and the progress of every player in the team under the manager. Some more players will join Manchester United, Onana the goalkeeper is almost a done deal for them, they will be strong in goal, defense, midfield and attack, they have the players and more are coming.

Why do you think United will get better? I am a United fan myself, but I think it will be difficult even to keep the third place, and even more difficult to climb higher. Buying Mount is good, buying Onana is just a replacement for De Gea. I don't see any major enhancements. If United got Kane or Osimhen, you could say that they are getting stronger, but in my opinion now +- the same level.

See Mikel Arteta's  activity in hunting players in the transfer market this summer, I conclude that Arteta is focus on improve the defense and midfield as part of realize the team's ambition to win the Premier League. Arsenal is even willing to pay € 190 million just for the two midfielders from West Ham and Chelsea
Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola will make the sensation of the new season in the Premier League even more grip with their competition to conquer the EPL

[Sterbens]

It has been 3 years that Manmchester City has been the ruler in the Premier League, and they show the same potential in the coming season, they look more prepared now, especially after they got what they wanted all along, the Champions League title. I am sure they will be more motivated now, not only to win the Premier League title again but also to defend the Champions League title.

The consistency of club under guardiola already proven so many times. That's why im not feeling doubt even though some good players like gundogan and mahrez gonna leave from the club. Manchester city is still having a lot of good names to replace all of them. It's likely manchester city gonna be dominating the upcoming season again. I see that how consistent manchester city in winning premier league  since a few years ago till now.
City might be trying to expand its domination in the UCL too. The impact from guardiola is really big for manchester city at this moment. It sounds nonsense to call that city will lose its domination caused by the club will be missing gundogan and mahrez next season.
Guardiola will be able to buy the new talented player that's gonna have similar performance as gundogan and mahrez. City will be enjoying next season. Im thinking about breaking record by achieving treble winners two times in a row next season.

Im feeling doubt about its competitor like arsenal or manchester united. Arsenal will not be as strong as last season. City gonna dominate premier league easily next season.

Things like this are quite reasonable because Manchester City have the advantage of the condition of the players who are not much different for core and reserve players, moreover they can also still bring in several players as additional options from those left behind by several players.
Most likely for domination will still be felt but actually I want something new because if it continues to be dominated by Manchester City the EPL will be monotonous in terms of champions and not too much different from ligue 1 and the Bundesliga if indeed Manchester City win again and again. although indeed the intensity and competition are very good but when Manchester City win again and again it's still like there are no worthy opponents for City.

David Moyes continues to bring forward players on the hammers rader; he is determined towards getting a distinction done. Westham are interested in Connor Gallagher, although he is still under contract with Chelsea and does not appear to be interested at the time; he wants to focus on the new season and pre-season games with Chelsea. West Ham United are looking for an replacement for Declan Rice. The Englishman was the midfield's main playmaker; he was knowledgeable and skilled at placement. Let's hope Westham gets what they're keen on.

Getting a great forward should be the most important part of any team because if you have a great goalkepeer and then you have a great striker, then you fill the rest afterwards. I am not saying other parts are not important, all I am saying is that Striker could be the most important role of any team and if you have an amazing one there that could save you a lot. Plenty of teams that have amazing defenses that failed.

Because they couldn't score, getting 0-0 is not that good enough, look at Schalke they had plenty of that, they relegated. All in all, it's a good move and I believe that they are going to keep trying to get the best they could. We are ending July soon, we should be seeing the main core of most teams.

We can be sure, if Kroenke is willing to spend big money on Arteta to buy newcomers. that means, Arteta must win a trophy in the 2023/2024 season. at least, their main target is the Premier League trophy. if, Arteta failed to bring his squad to win a trophy. I'm pretty sure Arteta's career is at stake. last season, the Guners were very close to the Premier League trophy. unfortunately, they were unable to maintain their consistency to end their fast for this competition title.

Now, Arsenal have brought in several newcomers. many did not even expect that Arteta would be given a large budget to spend on players in this summer's transfer window. they have brought three names to the Emirates Stadium, but I would not be surprised if Arsenal would still bring in other players. as I quote from Romano, Arteta said, there is still a lot of time on the market. "we will have to see how it develops in the next few weeks, there is still time to do something" if we examine what Arteta said, he is still eyeing players he will sign in this window. thus, technically Arsenal should be a very competitive team. you can be sure, they will become one of City's rivals in the race for the trophy next season. and I hope they can make it happen.

I see you want United to sign a striker. Kane is interested in move to Bayern and highly doubt Spurs are gonna let him go to their rival and as for Osimhen he is not gonna move this season so seems like it is hard for United to sign any striker as you mentioned. But they actually are interested in Rasmus Højlund (wonderkid from Atlanta) ^[1], so what do you think about this? Asking price around 65~70m Euro and talks are very advanced right now with personal terms agreed with player and United trying to find a proper fee to sign him.

There are Mateo Kovacic, Kai Havertz, Alexis MacAllister, James Maddison, Dominik Szoboszlai, Mason Mount, and finally, currently the most expensive English player, Declan Rice.

For Alexis MacAllister and Dominik Szoboszlai who moved to Liverpool, they played today in the club friendly game against KARLSRUHER SC. In the game Dominik Szoboszlai started and was later replaced by Alexis MacAllister, so both of the players played like 45mins each. I noticed that the England player who was in a defensive position for Liverpool last season played a more advanced role in midfield. The manager of the club is trying out new things as Liverpool look to do better next season. Liverpool won the game,  Nunez, Gakpo and Jota scored two goals to give them the win.

Regarding the prematch for Manchester United, that in the last season also Manchester United got good results. Also, the good results in the prematch last season at least still continue to occur in the early matches of Manchester United in the Premier League. But unfortunately, again and again Manchester United still cannot play more consistently and yes, if Onana will really play at Manchester United next season. Then, maybe Onana can consistently to make clean sheet results and of course it will be good, and even though your consideration is only replacing De Gea position. But, if Onana can play better it will make Manchester United difficult to concede also by the opposing team and it will be a good defense of course.

[kawetsriyanto]

Pochettino cannot - I repeat, CANNOT sign in Harry Maguire for even the least penny... I don't really wish being a Thorn on his flesh buh he's not organised and can easily be replaced by any regular street footballer. What kinda player/defender scores more own goals ?? Sometimes I wonder what UTD really saw in him that caught thier fancy, honestly.

Agree. Pochettino mustn't sign him although his transfer fee will be cheap, even for free.  
There is no advantage to add a controversial player on the squad, it just ruins the squad quality. His reputation that often made own goals will scary any team, I can't believe how the feelings of Chelsea players to have Maguire on their squad. Man United players already got some severe losses because of Maguire's own goals. Everyone in Chelsea squad must be unsatisfied if Chelsea management really signs him.

Talking a out the usefulness of Maguire, I am confident the English defender will be useful to many clubs. He is just finding it difficult to adapt to Erik style.

It is not about the usefulness but the uselessness of him. I doubt if he will be useful for many clubs, how he will bring the advantage for the clubs if he made own goals?    No, it is not about his adaptation, it is about his lack of skills/mentality.

It won't be wise for him to remain at the club after his captain title has been removed~

He even mostly spent time on the bench, not only removed as a captain.

Maguire mightn't just do well at the Chelsea defense as he's doing when playing for england.

He may play better in England national team, but I am sure England can play better without him.  
No mate, just don't expect much about him to play well in Chelsea. If there are other options, Chelsea is better to sign other defenders.

It's hard to say anything right now of course, including about the players they bought this summer. Only three transfers to buy, two players they sold, in general, the players who came are good, but how they will prove themselves at Arsenal is still unknown. There is a feeling that Arsenal will not fight for first place, maybe second or even third....

[ndutndut]

The recent signings to the team are capable of having a transformative effect in terms of bolstering the quality of the whole team. So I expect them to pull up a big surprise as the season unfolds.

Even though many say Arsenal will win the EPL if Pep Guardiola is not in England and Halland is seriously injured, I do not doubt that this season Arsenal will win. Because I see the Arsenal squad revolution has increased significantly compared to other big teams. This is very interesting to look forward to.

Player purchases that were made also seemed very good. Havertz is an upgrade from Xhaka in terms of creativity and attack, but lacking in defense. That's why Arteta is very ambitious to take Rice, whose defensive attributes are good. It's a good buy in my opinion, buying Arsenal this season compared to last season buying Viera, Lokonga, and Tavares but not contributing to Arsenal.

What the arsenal lacked last season was direct. Their possession and pressing are good, but they can still lose against low-block teams. different from what Man City can see yesterday, not in full possession, but they can also direct the overhead ball. then Arsenal lacks players who can shoot like KDB because Odegard is not a KDB-type player but this season it might be minimized with a player like Kai Havertz.
