Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[rahmad2nd]

Man United lost 0-2 to Real Madrid in a recent friendly match. From the beginning, Man United struggled when Kobbie Mainoo had to leave the field with an injury after a collision with Rodrygo. And the ability to finish inefficiently is one of the main reasons Man United lost the match. When unable to hit the target, Antony is one of the most criticized names for this. Erik Ten Hag will know what he needs to do this transfer season. A striker who specializes in goalscoring will be indispensable at Man United if they want to avoid being overtaken by other competitors.

To be honest, I'm not really interested in watching pre-season games. but what is certain, this friendly match is only a place for coaches to experiment with their players and at the same time try out some of the systems that are implemented. plus, restoring the fitness of the players to return to their prime when welcoming the new season.
by the way, if I refer to the stats of these two teams. both Ten Hag and Ancelotti, are trying to experiment with some of their players. in this match, Ten Hag tried to rotate some of his players. for Madrid, it seems that Ancelotti is trying to experiment with the new system that he applies. So, the result of this match doesn't determine anything. it's just that, every coach can give an assessment when his players carry out this pre-season match.

Speaking of Manchester United, like I said in many posts. if, Ten Hag can't just rely on Marcus Rashford to be the center forward.  like it or not, they have to bring in a pure striker to strengthen the depth of his team. because of that, Ten Hag is targeting Rasmus Hojlund to complement the strength of his team on the front lines. even though, in fact there are still a number of players who are their target. unfortunately, with limited spending funds, Ten Hag was unable to bring in the players he really wanted.

Premier league this season will be different from the one of last season,  last season it was Arsenal and Manchester City that was fighting to get the  championship but this season more teams are joining the race of getting the championship of premier league. Other teams are really getting prepared to come out  with good performance for next season,  it might not be really easy for arsenal to continue to fight to win champions league because their are other teams that will also be challenging to them. The next season is just too unpredictable for arsenal if they will go far or not in the premier league competition.  

Next season's competition will be much more competitive, not only Arsenal and Man City will compete for the premier league title, but many other teams have also made major changes in the current transfer market, so that the competition in the premier league will be even tighter and full of competition. Arsenal will face tough competition because there are many other teams that will disrupt its dominance. If Arteta is not able to play more consistently in directing his team it will be difficult for him to compete in the top three or win the premier league title next season.

Next season it will be difficult to predict the course of the competition in the premier league, but I suspect Arsenal will be out of competition for the title and instead there are other teams that will compete with Man City. The strength possessed by Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham is also likely to be a strong challenger to Man City and Arsenal will be in the four teams in facing competition next season.

Mikel Arteta's big-scale improvement this season basically aims one of them to conquer the EPL, considering that last season's situation left a deep impression on the club where their domination of the League since the start of the season had to stop in the last weeks before the season was finished.
Coach Arteta has invest more than €200 million to equip his main squad, this action is a signal that Arteta does not want his club to lose its place and is ready return to challenge the top of the Premier League standings

The fact that last season they almost became EPL champions with a makeshift squad made Arteta succeed in convincing Arsenal management to spend a large budget. Now the presence of Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice will give Arsenal fans new hope, that their beloved club is serious about challenging defending champion Man City and other elite EPL clubs to fight for the championship trophy.

Even more pressure will be felt next season for Arteta if he doesn't win anything, spending a budget of up to 200 million Euros to buy new players is certainly mandatory for Arteta to bring the trophy home to the Emirates. Losing points at the end of the season will be resolved with the transfer policy this time, Arsenal used to be very stingy when it came to spending on expensive players.

[RaltcoinsB]

With that Arsenal winning, maybe it will make Mikel Arteta more confident to play in the new season 2023/2024 which will start in August, I also hope that Arsenal can be consistent again in the next new season. By the way Arsenal next match is against Monaco, I won't be surprised if Arsenal can win by big score too, although based on head to head Monaco also not too bad but at the moment Arsenal looks better.

I also think that Arsenal will win again against Monaco even though Monaco is not too bad based on the results that have been seen through head to head. Because until now Arsenal are still much better than Monaco so that match might make it easier for Arsenal to win and I am also sure that Mikel Arteta will still be more confident in making Arsenal better next season, the mainstay strategies that will be he uses next season.

I think Arsenal also drew a more ready image than Monado. Although Monaco is a good team, it seems less strong and less ready for the season than Arsenal. I have no doubt that Arsenal will win. I'm sure he will leave the field with a good result. They leave behind a nice camp.

The next season is just too unpredictable for arsenal if they will go far or not in the premier league competition.  

As the season has not yet started, I don't believe it is appropriate for you to state that it will be difficult for Arsenal to compete for the title because, even prior to the start of the previous campaign, no one anticipated that Arsenal would perform to the point where they would finish second on the Premier League table. However, once the season got underway, we saw that their performance had significantly improved, and those teams were anticipated to perform well and compete for the Premier League title their not that in form.

I don't believe anyone will suggest Arsenal won't perform well and compete for trophies next season if we assess them by their current squad. The only thing I can guarantee, though, is that it won't be so simple to forecast what will happen in the upcoming season as many teams will be bolstering their rosters. I won't even be astonished if I learn that clubs like Newcastle or Aston Villa are vying for the Premier League championship once the season gets started.

Somehow it seems you think getting a win in a game like this is important, because winning or losing doesn't have any impact I'm sure. Maybe indeed, if they win it can make their confidence increase, but if they lose in a friendly match like this it won't worsen their confidence at all, right. So yeah, I personally don't care whether Arsenal will win or not because the most important thing is, they stay fit and don't get injured in a match like this and that is the main priority I think rather than win or lose.

I also agree with you. The important thing is that the players can start the season without getting injured in this tournament.

Arsenal played very seriously against Barcelona even though it was a friendly match. Looking at this match, I don't think it is a friendly match. The performance of the players of both teams was quite good. Arsenal's match strategy was good. They took advantage of Barcelona's weak defense very well. And scored 5 goals. Arsenal is very strong this season like last season. Their team is still stable. It is hoped that after this good performance against Barcelona, the confidence of the Arsenal players will increase.

Wagering on friendly games was never in my plans; instead, I focused my efforts on achieving substantial outcomes in the major league games. Friendly games are intended to practice and warm up for the upcoming season, with coaches putting their game ideas to the test and utilising the entire squad to select the ones who will fit in ideally. Friendly games are not tempting me to wager because 80% of my forecasts are erroneous. These elite clubs do not take games professionally; rather, the players demonstrated their skill levels.

[BRINIRHA]

And for the Europa League competition I think Liverpool will obviously be very favored. In fact, I think Liverpool will be able to win the title in the Europa League.

Liverpool may be considered a very good club in the European league, but keep in mind that there are many other clubs that have the same quality of performance, of course they can qualify for the European league full of struggles and it is not that easy for Liverpool to win the European league, of course there are many clubs that have to beat there, I know Liverpool's performance is quite good for now playing in the European league.

But we should not predict anything about strength because as it is said that the underdog team can sometimes make surprises against the top clubs so don't underestimate the opponents in the European league, it is a big championship not a domestic league championship. so we should see how Liverpool will live it in the European championship later.

It's true that we shouldn't underestimate any team that has qualified for the Europa League. Because in the world of football, sometimes a team that is not underdog can even become a team that is underdog in the end. For example, in the Champions League from the group stage we favored Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​PSG, Man City, Bayern and several other teams. But we see a completely unexpected surprise by seeing Inter Milan actually get to the Final. And then in the Premier League we had absolutely no idea that Newcastle and Arsenal were actually such tough clubs last season. So at this time there are certainly many who favor Liverpool but well it could be that the results of the competition would actually be completely different. It could be that the unseeded club will make a surprise and make it to the final.

It was a final, so obviously Arsenal will try their best to win it. Arsenal managed to overthrow Barcelona with a massive 5-3 score in a friendly match, so surely the players' confidence will increase because of it ahead of the Emirates final. I think Arsenal have a higher chance of winning the title than Monaco, but something can happen the other way around.

Arsenal have been quite confident with the strength and depth of their squad. Arteta will play his best player to beat Monaco and win the Emirates title later. Monaco certainly has a chance, but I don't think it's any better than Arsenal.

[Pokapoka124]

I think Brighton are on a different level since last season. I know towards the end of last season, many would say this is a “one season wonder” for Brighton and they will not be able to keep up the same performance level in the coming season but watching the pre season game, I am thinking otherwise and have a good feeling that Brighton will perform well next season. There is going to be a lot of heat in the EPL this season and I really can’t wait for the games to resume proper.

I agree, but I think it will come down to how well they can replace the players that leave the club during this transfer season. Without McAllister and possibly without Caicedo, they will have a lot to think about.

I really want to see how they do in the Europa League!

I guess it all depends on how well they do in pre-season. The game they showed last season is obviously not their level at all. I can't even give you an approximate reason why they were so bad, but apparently as a team they've fallen apart and if they've worked on that now, in the summer, it's obvious that they'll be back to top level in the new season

Arsenal 5 vs 3 Barcelona

The performance of the Arsenal team was quite good in this match and the opponent they faced was last season's La Liga champions, namely Barcelona with almost equal team strength but Arsenal managed to win the match, even though this was a pre-season match but they have started to show the quality that this team has, it is clear that the Arsenal team is growing.
And the new player brand Havertz scored a goal in this match, even though he was doubted at the start of his arrival, the player was able to prove it in this match.

I'm sure Arsenal will be much better than last season, and maybe they will again become a tough challenger for the Premier League title, and it is also very possible for them to get it.

Today’s game between these two teams was a very fierce and interesting one. After the game, Xavi expressed his shocking reaction to how much Arsenal took the game serious as if it was a champions league game. I like the attitude from the team, Arsenal need that fighting spirit and that attitude to compete with the current champions, Manchester City and the best teams in Europe. The game finished in a 5:3 victory for the gunners, next game I think is againt Sevilla which I expect to see same spirit and morale from the Gunners.

[AakZaki]

I never doubt the quality of Kyle Walker, but I don't think Bayern Munich will sign him. If they transfer, it would be a good challenge for Walker, of course. I think he will go to Saudi Arabia to earn money because a 33-year-old football player will want to earn serious money in his last days.

If Bayern want maybe it's better for him to go to Bayern Munich. As long as you can still compete in Europe, it's better to keep playing there. Although maybe the salary received is not as big as in Saudi Arabia. Maybe at 35 years old he can go there. At least he will still be valuable and have the best stamina for the Saudi Arabian League. But Pep can keep it up, this is in preparation for a hectic schedule.

[Pokapoka124]

I saw the Premier League Summer Series match between Newcastle and Chelsea very interesting, and Chelsea took the lead through Nicolas Jackson's goal in the 12th minute and lasted until the 45th minute. But in additional minutes Newcastle were able to equalize at 1-1 through Miguel Almiron's goal in 45 + 4 minutes.
and it was a goal that hurt Chlesea because they tried to keep the score 0-1 until the end of the first half but in the extra minutes at the end of time Newcastle were able to level the score, and I think Newcastle deserved it. because they keep attacking to score goals. It seems that in the second half the match will be even more interesting because they have to show their best performance for the summer, especially the new players.

Surprisingly Chelsea’s new signing Nicolas Jackson has been showing potential for Chelsea in the pre season games. He already has 3 assists and a goal recorded for the team, could this mean Chelsea have got themselves the perfect signing this summer?  It’s still early to judge but I am already seeing good improvement for Chelsea under Pochettino. I hope this improvement will remain as the season kicks off next month because most times teams do well in the preseason and flop when the season starts.

[Coyster]

If Bayern want maybe it's better for him to go to Bayern Munich. As long as you can still compete in Europe, it's better to keep playing there. Although maybe the salary received is not as big as in Saudi Arabia. Maybe at 35 years old he can go there. At least he will still be valuable and have the best stamina for the Saudi Arabian League. But Pep can keep it up, this is in preparation for a hectic schedule.

Of course Bayern Munich wants Kyle Walker, he is one of their main targets and according to legitimate sources, Bayern Munich have made a proposal to Kyle Walker (though i don't think there's been any negotiations with City of yet). Manchester City are also interested in keeping Kyle Walker, though i don't think he is going to start too many games for them, but he will be important for them in certain matches (as he was last season). I don't think there is any chance of Kyle Walker going to Saudi Arabia, from what i think, it is either he signs a new contract with City or moves to the German champions.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The downside of this is that if they start from scratch as you say, it's more difficult, because if they didn't do anything with the superstars then things are tougher, but obviously the problem here isn't the players, the problem is the technical director who He is not capable of how to manage his players, if Chelsea starts buying young players they are going to do the same as last season, they are not going to get any kind of victory, and it is sad because Chelsea have a lot to give, The team has good players who can make a difference, at the moment things in terms of the team they have are still very good , it's a pity that they let so many good players go.

Inter Milan are 'annoyed by Romelu Lukaku' as the Chelsea forward 'isn't responding' to messages with Juventus submitting £35million offer in hijack attempt

Inter Milan are reportedly upset with Romelu Lukaku as the Chelsea forward is not responding to messages from his teammates and manager amid Juventus' interest.
This comes as the forward has been granted additional time away from Chelsea while other players have already reported back for pre-season.
According to Italian journalist  Gianluca Di Marzio, Inter are 'annoyed by the attitiude of Lukaku, who isn't responding to the managers or his former teammates'

Source: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12301135/Inter-Milan-annoyed-attitude-Lukaku-Juventus-look-hijack-deal-Chelsea-star.html

I believe a lot of players have actually decided to stay in Chelsea because Chelsea is not even playing in any European competition right now. Not even in the Europa League. And the players who are leaving Chelsea are certainly good players who want to perform in the European competition. They wanted the silverware. Chelsea is not being able to provide them with what they want right now. At the same time is there other clubs who are going to compete in European competitions actively trying to get them into the team. So it makes a lot of sense that the players decided to leave Chelsea.

Lukaku is basically waiting for a better offer from the Saudi league in my opinion. Otherwise, I do not find any valid reason for him to avoid his own teammates or the potential transfer that can be made. Juventus is not a bad club. He is not responding to any messages because he wants more money. I don’t think he actually cares about his career anymore. Money is the only thing he wants.

Well if we go to that level , I don't blame him, it is not Known what the Player really needs , but personally I don't think it's bad, he's trading, it's something normal, also in the rally they have him Well, that's not something pleasant , I wouldn't like to be in his position , and Obviously if I go to a soccer club where I'm going to have less effort, more money , more fame, well , I would leave Europe without even thinking about it. that in Saudi football it does not mean that they are going to retire or something like that, they can continue with the same level of fútbol and contribute at their level, on the other hand, in Europe things sometimes do not go well for them because if they are not given permission or something like that to play for their Countries.

Premier league this season will be different from the one of last season,  last season it was Arsenal and Manchester City that was fighting to get the  championship but this season more teams are joining the race of getting the championship of premier league. Other teams are really getting prepared to come out  with good performance for next season,  it might not be really easy for arsenal to continue to fight to win champions league because their are other teams that will also be challenging to them.

I won't even be astonished if I learn that clubs like Newcastle or Aston Villa are vying for the Premier League championship once the season gets started.

I think the same as you, for me the PL teams have been greatly strengthened, it is one of the things that excites me the most, of course I understand that everyone focuses on Arsenal, also that with the preseason they beat Barcelona and this It has raised the spirits of the fans a lot, so these things that are so big for Arasenal fans mean that sometimes they can exaggerate in the news, however, I am very curious about the performance that Newcastle is going to do, this team has always fascinated me liked, they have a lot of heart, and I hope that in this PL they can do well, like Aston Villa, they have a lot of power to demonstrate.

Some people were speculating that Mbappé was going to go to Arsenal, others were going to go to Liverpool, so this type of thing is what we should see, however the PL could be that there are no surprises and City's dominance is greater this time, no We know, the team is very well organized and well integrated, Pep has done a great job here.

and here something:

Harvey Barnes is under no illusions about what the Newcastle United hierarchy expect this season.

Despite having only just joined Newcastle in a £39 million deal, Harvey Barnes is already aware of the pressure on the squad to kick on again this season.

Eddie Howe led the Magpies to an impressive fourth-place finish in the Premier League last time out. Champions League football will finally be returning to St James’ Park this season. However, that alone isn’t enough for the Tyneside outfit.

The truth is I have a lot of faith in Newcastle this season, I know that this team will not disappoint me, I see a different atmosphere, also in the PL you can expect anything I would like things to be different this season, that the dominant team It's something other than the same as always, but of course that's what I'm speculating, we have to wait and see how they prepare , but I hope things go better for this type of team.

The players can be seen very well, but here the motivation, the incentives , is very important, seeing a Team like Newcastle first in the PL would be something great , I Would like it to be Like that.

If Bayern want maybe it's better for him to go to Bayern Munich. As long as you can still compete in Europe, it's better to keep playing there. Although maybe the salary received is not as big as in Saudi Arabia. Maybe at 35 years old he can go there. At least he will still be valuable and have the best stamina for the Saudi Arabian League. But Pep can keep it up, this is in preparation for a hectic schedule.

Pep Guardiola still wants Kyle Walker to stay at Manchester City for the next few seasons, that's because Kyle Walker is a special player for them. Kyle Walker's performance in the last few seasons has really made Manchester City good enough both in defense and in building attack. The speed that Kyle Walker has has helped Manchester City's defense to be stronger, especially in duels and cutting off opponent's passes. He is a strong figure for opposing wingers, so that is why Pep Guardiola really wants Kyle Walker to stay.

In the end Pep Guardiola probably couldn't do much for Kyle Walker other than speak for him and convince him to stay. Pep will still make Kyle Walker a major player next season, obviously he will be in his XI line up next season.
