Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[bitLeap]

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.

Barcelona did not put too much anergy into the game, which is why you perceive it as such. If it's the Champions League, I don't think Arsenal can beat Barcelona; it'll be difficult for them. Because that is not how they will play in the Champions League, but that is how I saw Barcelona last season. It will be difficult for them to defeat Arsenal in the Champions League if they meet in the group stage, because they played pool games in both the Champions League and the Europa League last season. I would like Xavi to do something before the new season begins next month.

Many things has changed positively with Arsenal which will make Arsenal to defeat Barcelona anytime because what we saw during the pre-season match is a sign that Arsenal can still defeat Barcelona in the champion league competition this season.  Arsenal surprised many people during the premier league competition Last season that made them to lead the tournament from the beginning before Manchester city manage to take over the first position to lift the title because their players really handle their position very well to frustrated the effort of the Arsenal. I believe, this season will going to be a tough season for Barcelona and other strong teams because all the teams are planning to break record in this season just to make their fans happy.

Last season was a very good one but on the other hand it was also disappointing to lose their place at the end of the competition. Not wanting to repeat what they experienced last season, it's clear they'll be preparing even better. Although pre-season matches cannot be used as a measure of whether they will play well or not, but seeing their game is a positive signal for them to show more than what they showed last season.

I don't think there will be any team in the premier league that will tend to underrate Chelsea or any other team by next season.

Right from when Pochettino was making all those new signings and he was selling the old players, I knew that was just the best thing he should do, those old player’s are of no use to the club so Pochettino should just let them go and he made the right decision, sometimes is not all about having old player’s in the team just because we thing they have experience, sometimes we need young and talented players in the team, players that are ready to work for the success of the club. From what those new players Pochettino signed are playing, you will see that they are really dedicated to play for the club because their performance was really incredible in the preseason match they played.

Am sure no club will underestimate chelsea next season, and am sure they are going to surprise everyone next season, those players Pochettino signed are ready to work for the club and they are going to surprise everyone.

Saying old players are useless, I don't think it's right either, because when they sell players I believe that it has to do with the coach's taste of the criteria of the player he wants. What Poche did in my opinion was quite brave, because he made big changes with this new team, yes inevitably it must be done to make the basis of the team he will use to navigate a long season. At first glance, Chelsea actually has an advantage in terms of time, their absence in European competition can make them more focused on the Premier League, it is also confused if you say this is an advantage or not, because absence in European competition is definitely not expected for a team.

If he said Kyle Walker is an irreplaceable player this means he won't allow Walker to leave Manchester City for Bayern Munich or any other team even if they sell this player finding another good player to fill his place can't be easy.

Kyle Walker is one of Manchester City's best defenders, so if Manchester City leaves him at the moment, it will be very difficult for Manchester City to find a defender like him. Kyle Walker wants to play for Manchester City if Manchester City keep him in the regular XI. I have learned from several media that Guardiwala will not consider him in the regular XI if Manchester City keep him at the club. I think his performance is still needed by Manchester so he can still be included in the regular XI. Although he missed the end of the last season due to injury, he kept the team's defense strong from the start.

one of the senior players in Man City and I'm sure Guardiola will keep him even though Kyle Walker is already 33 years old but his performance is still quite good and I think Man City also needs a player like this while there is no one who can replace his position and the transfer market will close soon before next summer.
so it's quite clear that Kyle Walker position will not be replaced by another player.

Manchester City decides not to sell Bernardo Silva this summer and they asking to Silva to stayed at this team at least until season 2024 ended and Silva has no objections to Manchester City's wishes although actually he want to look for new challenge and previously Silva almost moved to Barcelona and reported whether it Silva or Barcelona has personal agreement but recently Manchester City has decide to hold him because they still needed his service especially after lost Gundogan and Mahrez Manchester City feel they don't want to losing more midfielder players anymore besides that Manchester City feel they still unable to get a replacement who has the same quality as Benardo Silva

Saying old players are useless, I don't think it's right either, because when they sell players I believe that it has to do with the coach's taste of the criteria of the player he wants.

Not all old players are useless, but maybe I can just say the once chelsea is having are useless to the club, chelsea spent much money on the players they don’t need during the last transfer window. After spending much amount on players in the last transfer period, people were thinking chelsea will perform well, but we all saw how Chelsea played last season, we saw the position which they ended the season, all the quality players they bought performed poorly last season, I was just surprise to see player’s that Chelsea spent that huge amount of money on playing poorly on the pitch, no confidence, no team work, everyone was just playing individual ball last season.

What Poche did in my opinion was quite brave, because he made big changes with this new team,

If Pochettino didn’t make those changes in the club, then there won’t be any difference In chelsea performance, chelsea will still perform the same wey they performed under the previous coaches that they sacked. Even when chelsea was sacking their coaches anyhow, I knowthey needed a experience coach, but I knew their problem was not from the coach alone, we should also blame the players also. If Pochettino didn’t make the changes, chelsea might even get worst under him.

Rasmus Hojlund is still on the agenda for Manchester United. He is still their priority about a striker transfer. However there is still a problem about the agreement between two teams. Atalanta want a package of 70 million euros while Manchester United have offered a 60 million one. It feels like they can meet at 65 million finally to finish the deal.

PSG are also observing Hojlund's situation closely so Manchester United want to finish this deal as quick as possible. Actually Hojlund hasn't given us much about his performance so far. He hasn't been that much productive when it comes to the number of goals he scored. But the Red Devils must be still believing in his potential very much.

Manchester United have wasted a lot of time on Rasmus Hojlund negotiations I'm afraid that Munich will come with a better offer and Manchester United will regret it
If indeed Manchester are targeting this player why don't they increase their offer? or maybe they know Atalanta's situation of needing money so they manage the time

Manchester United started with 50 million euros if I'm not wrong. They improved their offer to this level after that. But I really don't feel like he is the right player for this team. If they want to invest into the future then they should look for Vlahovic instead. He has proven his skills already. He is a really great scorer when he has a team fitting his game.

I think he would fit Manchester United really good as well. But interestingly there is no interest from their side. I'm curious about whether they don't feel like they can steal him from Real Madrid or PSG. But technically PSG are interested in Hojlund too.

If Manchester City sell Bernardo Silva, it will be very risky for them. An experienced coach like Guardiola does not take such risks. Because Manchester City's midfielder, one of the most important players, İlkay Gündoğan has left the team. Now if Manchester City sells Silva too then Manchester City will have to rely solely on Kevin de Bruyne to stabilize the midfield next season. And if de Bruyne doesn't play well, Manchester City's overall performance will suffer. This is why Guardiola needs Bernardo Silva so much next season.

Bernardo Silva is one of the key players at manchester city and he is known for his talent and features such as Silva is renowned for his versatility, dribbling, creativity, and stamina letting him go now will be a severe loophole for manchester city, the Portuguese player has been recognized the be a key player of manchester city and let him go now won't favor, and I don't Bernardo will also want to leave manchester city, in my opinion, manchester city in its best position to accommodate such talent, am not feeling Barcelona right now good for him that he has decided to stay with manchester city, true after losing Gundogan and Mahrez and losing silva will put the club in a terrible position.

Yes, now it is reported that Manchester City have again abandoned their intention to include Bernardo Silva's name on the sale list in the transfer market this summer, even though previously Silva had intended to seek new challenges with other clubs and Barcelona was one of the clubs hunting for Silva. Previously, I also did not think that Guardiola would be willing to let go of his flagship player, he has a very important role in every game because of his sharp performance, and it is unlikely that Guardiola will let him go. We can see that one of their mainstay players left, namely Gundogan and if Guardiola releases Silva again then I think they will lose the balance in the competition next season. This is the right decision that has been taken by Manchester City by keeping him until 2024 ends and with Silva's stay I am sure that next season they will still be a strong team that will dominate victory in every match.

Bernardo Silva was an integral part of the treble winning squad of Manchester City last season and because it'll be difficult to get another player to handle the right flank of Manchester City attack like he did last season, I know Manchester City wouldn't allow him to leave the club this summer not when Riyad Mahrez has already left the club.
The Portuguese's electrifyingly skills of dribbling past opposing defenders and creating scoring opportunities is another reason why City would rather keep him than allow him go. It's surely a good decision by City management to keep such a quality player for the club

Bernado Silva is one of the best players in Manchester City, but mind you that Pep Guardiola is famous for not standing in the way of players that make known their intentions to leave the club, so if Bernado Silva has decided to leave City, Pep wouldn't stop him. City have already signed a midfielder this summer in Kovacic, though he isn't a direct replacement for Bernado Silva, but he is going to bolster City's midfield. I don't think Bernado Silva is going to leave City, but if he does they'll find a replacement for him and City would still be very strong to compete for all trophies.

Pep Guardiola has never depend on a single player for his success, he has Variety of played in every position. If Bernard Silva leave, it won't bother him, and Manchester city will still dominate the league, Manchester city bench can win the premier without the first team playing a single game.

No doubt bernado Silva is the engine room of the midfield as of today, and they can't afford to sell him and Gudguson same transfer year. Bernard Silva might stay till next summer.

It is amazing to see Arsenal rekindled battling spirit in today game. They genuinely exhibited the mindset and tenacity required to compete at the highest level. The fact that they defeated a strong team like Barcelona 5-3 says a lot about their potential. They can certainly compete with the top teams in Europe including the reigning champions Manchester City if they keep up their present level of play. I am an Arsenal supporter and am excitedly anticipating the forthcoming match between the Gunners and Sevilla. I am hoping to see the same attitude and energy from the Gunners. Barcelona chances of succeeding under Xavi leadership make it an exciting prospect for the forthcoming season.

So you are convinced that in a game where Arsenal made 9 substitutions and Barcelona made 11 substitutions (11 fresh players for the 11 players on the field, including the goalkeeper of course), the 5-3 win is a strong indicator for Arsenal's competitiveness in the Premier League in serious games under totally different conditions for a totally different output, a.k.a. points?

I am ok if this is your opinion, but I wonder whether this really is your opinion? Liverpool played 4-4 against a team from the 2. Bundesliga. I would like to know your interpretation of that result, should we expect Greuter Furth to soon win the 1. Bundesliga or should we expect Liverpool to soon get relegated into the English Championship?

The match was so riveting from the two clubs and Arsenal gave a very good game so they were able to win with 5 goals.
I was a little amazed by L. Trossard who managed to score two goals for Arsenal in the second half.
It's been a great start for Arsenal for this pre-season game and of course what is said that Arsenal are able to compete with European clubs has some truth to it.

If until later in the season Arsenal can improve their game then it is very likely that they will be able to win the Premier League title even though they have to compete with other strong clubs such as Manchester City and Manchester United.

Strategically, keeping Bernardo Silva makes sense for Manchester City. Silva is vital to Manchester City because of his creativity, adaptability, and stamina. After Gundogan and Mahrez's departures, his departure would leave a big hole in their midfield

Silva's desire for a fresh challenge is natural, as all players want to improve. He showed his openness to try new things with the Barcelona transfer. Football involves a balance between individual goals and team needs. Manchester City's needs outweighed Silva's

Silva's worth to Manchester City may be demonstrated in their difficulty to find a comparable replacement. Their chances in the next seasons will improve with Silva's retention till 2024. As an onlooker, this relationship would be intriguing

Today in the friendly match between Manchester United and Real Madrid in the second half of the game when Harry Magarive came to the field the fans hooed Harry Maguire for his bad and poor performance in the previous games, I think it's the time for Harry Maguire to leave Manchester United.

https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/harry-maguire-booed-man-utd-30564850

The fans will have to deal with Maguire; If prior to the tranfer and there was no manipulaton, wrong deception and fake hype and PR, no way Manchester United will buy Maguire for a transfer fee of $100m with duration of 7 years and will end up like this, that man is going through a lot and this disappointment and name calling will not help him any further, they should let him be and focus on his carreer, if there is buyer, that's fine and if there is none, then Mancester United should continue to use him or bench him when necessary.

I don't even there is something wrong in making him a susbstitute from other players, it is a friendly match and I think all the players were all giving a fair moments to enjoy the show rather than just sitting down. I believe is still in Real Madrid, they will give the chance t swing that his lazy legs instead of warming the bench when the real players are on the field struggling to make name for the club, they should be happy that Maguire is even playing and making the club go viral after the weekly wages.

The Manchester City team has and will continue to outperform the Sevilla team. The type of players in the Manchester City team are all world class. It is not fair to compare the players in the Sevilla team.

Arsenal's performance was very consistent in the last season as well. And Arsenal's performance has been steady this season as well. But Arsenal coach Arteta should not forget what he did wrong last season. Despite the consistently good performance of the players, the team could not win the title. Because their bench team was weak. When a player was injured, Arteta did not have a suitable replacement. As a result, Arsenal's players failed to maintain consistency. If Arteta makes the same mistake this season, we might get some good performances from Arsenal, but the team won't win the title.

You are right Arsenal's weakness is in the second tier players when Arsenal schedule is tight and one of the players is injured then problems can occur so Arteta needs to focus more on problems like this. This season Arsenal have brought in 3 players Midfielder, Striker and Defender now their strength is almost equal but I'm not sure if the current squad is enough to go through all the games I think Arsenal need a few more players. Arsenal are reportedly planning to bring in a midfielder , Mohammed Kudus is on the list but it looks like Arsenal do not have enough funds.

https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/harry-maguire-booed-man-utd-30564850

This is a bad example shown by the spectators of the Manchester United vs Real Madrid football match. We admit that Harry Maguire while playing for Manchester United is not like the game shown at Leicester City. As bad as Maguire's performances are, I don't think there's anything to cheer about because he is also a former club captain full of history and there is something he has done for Manchester United that is not disclosed to the media. It's not fair even though Harry Maguire has to accept such a reality as a professional footballer.

[Luzin]

Almost 10 years Man United did not win the EPL. Even 7 coaches have been selected to try to deliver the championship title but failed. After Sir Alex Retirement, Man United did look bad. In fact, many large transfers have ended up failing. When Ten Hag arrived, they began to improve even though they did not have a championship but Man United's performances were promising. They have made good use of transfers, but there is one player who could possibly be the solution. Since they currently do not have a number 9 striker, Maybe Man United can buy Kane as this solution. But Tottenham are unlikely to release Kane to an English club.
