Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[marcous]

Yeah Ten Hag was called successful in its first season although not as a winner but in 3rd place is a good achievement, Pep Guardiola in his first season also finished in 3rd place then in season 2 they could win the title so surprises could happen in the 2nd season, who knows. Ten Hag still has plenty of time until 2025 to build a Manchester United squad if he continues to be consistent I believe their chances are closer to the title. For this season Manchester United still need a new striker figure because with the current squad their strength is still difficult to compete with Manchester City, we know Manchester City is a complete team so to compete it takes a complete team as well.

Sometimes it turns out that "tough" coaches who emphasize discipline and subordination achieve success in the first season, but in the second season the tension in the relationship already becomes unbearable and the team regresses. Let's see how Ten Hag manages to avoid this. As for the goals for the season, I will be happy if United will be in the top 4. There is no chance of moving the City.

I don't think it's really impossible for Man United to take this opportunity this season. As was the case last season, where Arsenal put up quite a fierce resistance to Man City, it's just that they couldn't keep their consistency at the end of the season. If Man United can get off to a good start and they can maintain their consistency, I think Man United can become a serious challenger in the title race. It's not just Man United, I think Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea also still have a chance to win the Premier League trophy.

maybe the order of the favorite clubs to win the EPL next season starts from Man City, Arsenal, Man United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham. I put Man City in first place because Pep Guardiola is a big influence, for Arsenal Arteta is very serious about building a squad this summer so that he spent a budget of more than 200 million and they deserve to be number two. Next Erik Ten Hag has also started to completely overhaul the Red Devils squad, Mason Mount and Onana will be new stars at Old Trafford and third place suits them. Chelsea are clearout to build a squad for next season, but the results of Mauricio Pochettino squad recruitment are not as luxurious as United. Next for Liverpool and Tottenham I assume the same with Chelsea.

But that's just a personal opinion and of course not looking down on EPL clubs as a whole, apart from the list of favorites maybe a new surprise will happen next season. Like Leicester in the 2016 season, no one had predicted and championed them beforehand, but the championship trophy at the end of the season silenced all predictions.

In my opinion, the premier league, there are 2 club that will compete fiercely with City, namely United and Arsenal.
Even though Liverpool and Newcastle also have the chance to chase first place but these two clubs are not that big of an influence and for chelsea I don't think it time for him to wake up because there is still a lot of adaptation from new players after a very big overhaul.
The season that will start later will be a tense match because many club are making major overhaul in the players and strategies for each coach and it is difficult to predict in advance.

I still don't know about the way Liverpool fans sees their team next season but I don't see them doing well next campaign because it seems they're letting much of the experience they have on the midfield to go without getting more of it. They seem to be very quiet in this transfer window and I think it will be bad for them next season.
Fabinho leaving the side is something they should be very worried about because that man is like a solid rock for the Liverpool team and he always play out his best in every position Klopp plays him. So I ask if there's any player that can fill in that gap next season for Liverpool? To me I don't think so, is a dead end to getting a replacement.

Liverpool now is a team that needs to make another big midfield transfer to feel like a big team again. I like tchouameni or kimmich very much, even though they are very difficult and expensive transfers. Although they still need a right back and a stopper until they get to the midfield. This stinginess of a team with so much money drives me crazy. On the other hand, there have also been names who have left because their contracts expired - naby keita, oxlade chamberlain etc... If it wasn't for the fan backlash, Klopp would have renewed their contracts too, but anyway.

It is true that Arsenal must add a quality striker to be able to compete in the EPL and UCL, not just relying on Jesus and Nketiah. Because it will make it easier for Arteta to rotate attack players if they are hit by accumulated cards and injuries, but it seems they have run out of budget after recruiting Rice.

Yes, it's true, of course Arsenal need to spend a lot more money to add players to the front lines, of course this should be prepared by Arsenal considering they got UCL tickets this season, of course, a lot of players will be needed to fill the front lines well and can also become goal machines for Arsenal, I think Arsenal have to strategize to get a striker for Arsenal.

At least don't make unnecessary purchases and big expenses, so you can save on expenses and really buy players who can fill in certain lines so you can be more solid and maintain good team performance, especially since the competition in the EPL and UCL is very tight, so the arsenal must really reshuffling their cast properly.

Considering their ticket to the champion league is another opportunity for them to make their fans proud but to me, arsenal still lacks the players and strength to pull off such stuff, they really need to actually buy more players, and not all Arsenal players can score on like manchester city, arsenal depending on some position just to score, they really need to work on that aspect, and if it is on the premier league I think arsenal even have a better chance than UCL since a new season is about to start let us see what arsenal have been improving on all this while or they were just busy wasting time.

It's not just Man United, I think Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea also still have a chance to win the Premier League trophy.

Obviously Manchester City remain the most favourite to win EPL title this next season too, otherwise Arsenal and Manchester United come second followed by Liverpool in my opinion. I believe Chelsea will improve certainly but it will not fight for the top 4 spots. Newcastle will remain close most likely.
Odds for winning the title is +50% for Manchester City, around 17% for Arsenal, 11% for Liverpool and 7% for Manchester United. I don't know why there is such difference between gunners and ManU, and why Liverpool odds are upper for Liverpool. I think these 3 teams odds should be around 20% at least and 40% for Manchester City.

It won't be impossible, but it will be challenging. I think the upcoming season will be very difficult since Chelsea and Liverpool will have learned from their mistakes and tried to make them right before the season starts, which means they are also contending for the title.  When challenging for the title, getting off to a strong start is crucial, but over the long run, will they be able to maintain consistency when player injuries and fatigue set in? If so, will their squad have enough depth to withstand all of this? That's what happened to Arsenal at the close of the previous season; they were helpless to withstand the toll that injuries took.

I'd like to see a team other than Manchester City win the title.

I want Arsenal to compete with Manchester City in these teams. Just like last season so Manchester City could not get past the Premier League very comfortably. I want every team to be this strong and every match to be competitive.

In 2 weeks the EPL will start, Burnly vs Man City will be the opening match. Statistically it's possible Man City will be easy to win but in the opening game there is usually a surprise end result. Although they are a promoted team, they are all difficult to guess. Man City are currently left with many players, but the results of pre-season matches are still very good.

So soon, Burnley Vs Manchester City, a tough game but the cityzens have higher chances of winning. Pep Guardiola won't afford to lose his first game. On the other hand, burnley is newly promoted, although they know already how the league operates, but it's been a while so they might get a taste of defeat on the opening day. Perhapes everything will work just fine. The premier league is finally here, I can't wait to switch on sport Channel where I would watch live games. It's definitely going to be really fun noticing my favorable club to bounce back to glory ways.

No doubt with Manchester City is favorite teams for winning first Premier League match against with promotion teams Burnley, but excited with Burnley manager is Manchester City former Vincent Kompany. Burnley success winning Championship last season and promotion to Premier League with impressive performance by winning 29 of 46 matches and get 10 points difference standing from Sheffield United as second placed position.
The Citizen has several matches left before Premier League match against Burnley, today against Atletico Madrid in friendly match and facing Arsenal on Community Shiled before opening EPL matches against Burnley.

[rendravolt]

One of Manchester City's mainstay defenders, Nathan Ake, has officially extended his contract until 2027. He has been an important figure in helping Manchester City's defense so far and since being brought in from Bournemouth in 2020, he has played 81 matches with Manchester City in all competitions. Of course Pep Guardiola is very happy with the survival of his flagship player in Manchester City even longer and as long as there is a great trio of defenders like Nathan Ake, Manuel Akanji and Ruben Dias then Manchester City's defense will remain strong in the coming seasons.

I agree with you, of course because I have seen Liverpool have problems with the quality of their midfielders last season. Klopp can't do much when some of his best midfielders are injured, it has affected Liverpool's form throughout the season. Liverpool must invest some money to strengthen the depth of its squad, especially the midfielders, but they are known as one of the rather stingy teams so far.

Nonetheless, I hope Liverpool have the same inkling as we hope. They need a good midfielder to balance their midfield play, it will also support the performance of the attackers to get enough ball supply. A creative midfielder is expected, but I don't know what approach they will take to that.

I’ve been seeing a lot of Arsenal fans complaining about signing a center forward, that Gabriel Jesus isn’t reliable. Honestly, Do they need to sign a striker despite having Jesus & Nketiah? I am not sure it is a major priority. They did not lack goals last season. They scored 88 goals; second behind Manchester City, 94. I think their aim is to get a more suitable replacement for Saka. They don't need to be unnecessarily apprehensive because their rivals sign strikers. Chelsea obviously needed one, so do Manchester United. But them, Arsenal ? I am not sure it is dan-dan with Jesus and Eddie. Except if Eddie leaves.

Sorry, what can we expect more from Nketiah. without taking Nketiah for granted, but not much can be expected from him. in fact, every goal he scores is easy goals, aka Tap In. To be honest, I suspect that Nketiah will be released in this summer's transfer window. but on condition, Arsenal bring another pure striker instead.
Speaking of Gabriel Jesus, I like to see him playing, even if not as productive as most of the other strikers. however his contribution to the team squad is much needed. this player, not infrequently always opens space for his colleagues to score goals. he, too, often makes quick transitions from one player to another. but unfortunately, Gabriel Jesus is not the typical goal getter who always finds the net against the opposing team in every game after game.

Well, related to what you ask in this post, I will answer it. we can refer to the transfer window this summer, so far Arsenal have brought in three players who have a fairly high price and in particular Declan Rice whose price is fantastic. it would feel lame if Arteta did not bring in a pure striker, so that their squad strength would be far more competitive. isn't it ideal, having several attackers with different characters. that's why, I expect Edu and Arsenal to target to recruit more players.
what I'm saying, is corroborated by Romano's claim that Arteta is still monitoring and following developments this summer window. maybe they brought in another player. however, it would be ideal for Vlahovic to be part of the Gunners. besides being young, he will develop far with Arsenal. that's why I said that in the window of the transfer market this summer, it's not ideal if they don't bring in a striker who can really be relied on as a goalscorer.

So I ask if there's any player that can fill in that gap next season for Liverpool? To me I don't think so, is a dead end to getting a replacement.

For Fabinho, no. We don't officially have a replacement for him and his services yet but there have been reports of Liverpool bringing in Romeo Latvia being a replacement for Fabinho. For other midfield talents we had last season but lost this season, we have brought in Mac Allister amd Szobolai and a possibility of Trent being more involved in the midfield this season. Although the season is yet to start but I have a good feeling that Liverpool would do great this season despite not being one of the most active PL clubs innthe transfer window.

Sometimes it's not about quantity but quality.

[Google+]

I feel like it is not about how much you spend but where you spend it. They could spend another billion dollars if they must, but if they do not get a striker then they should realize that they are still missing it. I know that it is going to suck for a long time to see something like that but that doesn't mean that it is going to end up with a good result one way or another.

Just hope for the best and you should be getting a better player if you are lucky. Of course it is expensive these days to get these players, also there aren't all that many great pure strikers who score a lot, the number of them are dwindling due to wingers becoming more popular, but I believe if they can get one like that, they would be a lot better.

If you look further, it is true that the transfer market is very crazy because several teams that have become the main attraction in this transfer market have set very high release clauses for their players. For Arsenal of course they have spent quite a lot of money and they will probably continue to be aggressive to build a stronger squad. For stickers, it might be quite difficult to find one that can really make a big contribution to every game.

If we look at the transfer market, of course, every transfer market there are always surprises, whether it's breaking a transfer record or everything. And this will probably happen in this transfer window because Mbappe price is pegged by PSG quite high so there is a high probability that he will become the most expensive player to happen in this transfer window. I might wonder if Arsenal are interested in getting Mbappe.

Manchester United's squad currently is not bad, but all they need is determination, and when Manchester United is determined, they will surely perform more than our expectations, like what happened last season, where Arsenal's squad surprised everyone by their performance. If I were told that Arsenal would perform like that way last season and fought for the Premier League title before the season started, I would say no because I don't think that the squad that plays that type of ball last season can do so. So this time around, especially when the season has not yet started, I can say teams that will complete for the Premier League little next season, but I know the competition will not be easy form team in my opinion.

I dont think Arsenal needs goals, right? Last year, they scored 88 goals, two behind Man City. I can see why many want a new striker, but I don't think it's necessary. Pay attention! Gabriel Jesus only scored 11 goals last season, but isnt it too early to worry? It takes time to adjust to a team's culture and find your position in it, and I think thats happening here. They've added Haverzt and Rice, which is promising. This area is not deserted. Just because the transfer market is chaotic, don't judge. As the saying goes, Rome wasnt built in a day.

What Arsenal last season was great even though they did not have one specific target man to score goals in every match because they were playing collectively and many players could score goals.
Why people want them to sign a striker, maybe they want to have a target man who has a great skill to score goals in any opportunity, a striker that they did not have last year.
Reasonable enough if many people want it and it is good if they can sign a real striker with great skills but if they can have it this season, their gameplay should not be changed significantly because it is possible if they have 1 new great striker then they will be focused to pass the ball to the striker most of the time.

I know Gurdiola is a great coach and they had a good performance in Manchester City but I think the main reason for Arsenal losing the race to Manchester City in the last weeks, other than their coach was a lack of good players in Arsenal and they didn't even have enough forwards but in the next season after the money they spend for hiring player, I guess Arsenal can have much better results.

So far Arsenal are known to have spent more than 230 million euros to bring in several players during the transfer market. Declan Rice is the most expensive player they have signed with a transfer value of 116 million euros, followed by Kai Havertz with a value of 75 million euros. Then Arsenal also signed Jurrien Timber with a value of up to 40 million euros so that Arsenal's total spending during the transfer market was very large.

Arsenal need to balance their income and expenses, especially in terms of player transfers. So far Arsenal have only managed to sell a few players such as Granit Xhaka and Pablo Marí, but their value has not been higher than 20 million euros. It's clear that this is part of Arteta's plan to win titles, but financially then I think Arsenal still need to adjust.

I might wonder if Arsenal are interested in getting Mbappe.

Maybe, but not in the current transfer window.

However despite not having enough strikers according to you, they were on top of their game for most of the season and performed well. What happened at the end was more like moral fatigue, as if they couldn't, didn't have the energy to win anymore. Nevertheless, even second place at the end of the season is a great result, it's the EPL after all

Yeah we don't need to doubt the ability of these two managers what is different is the composition of the players, Manchester City's squad is more complete and supported by good second tier players as well while Arsenal are slightly below them. But that was last season's squad, for this season we can't compare it yet as we know Arsenal has brought in some great and expensive players this season which means their ability is better than last season. Arsenal have focused on defense and attack like what was recorded in their transfer list and have spent over €231 million so far on just 3 players.
