Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Swordsoffreedom]

Two quality stars have already departed from Liverpool, which can lead to a slightly poorer performance on the field. The two players who left the club too soon should be replaced by new players. Liverpool must think they can sign better players than left.  

I hope Liverpool are not slow to heat. This problem occurred last season, although there were indeed several core players injured. Liverpool's player transfers are not so good either. Nunez was expected to compete with Haaland but it failed. Today they had the opportunity to make some transfers but it seems the management didn't do that. Maybe they will rely on Gakpo who is starting to perform well and of course giving more minutes to Nunez

The Liverpool team did not get the expected performance from Nunez. He scored only 9 goals in 29 Premier League matches. A better performance was expected from the team. On the other hand, they cannot find a suitable replacement for Sadio Mane. Because of this, Liverpool's performance was erratic. Liverpool will definitely need to add experienced players in attack and midfield next season. Otherwise, their performance will not improve.

Liverpool team lost 4-3 in today's friendly match against Bayern Munich. But I wouldn't say that Liverpool's performance was bad. At the end of the first half, the match was tied at 2-2. Luis Diaz's goal at the start of the second half led 3-2, but in the end, they could not win. However, Liverpool's gameplay has improved. We will see more planned gameplay from them in the Premier League.

I saw some video bad finishing by Rasmus Hojlund while with Atalanta. Actually as a striker 32 times played and 9 goals seems like a not very good statistic. But it looks like Ten Hag has another view. Perhaps his young age is enough to make Ten Hag confident that he can change the bad views of football observers. Many people also hope that Rasmus Hojlund can be Haaland's competitor and be the solution to the attacker's problems. At the moment Ten Hag has several options so Rashford probably won't be exhausted and injured a lot.

I am not so sure why Rasmus Hojlund is tagged the second Erling Haaland, maybe it’s because of his statue and physic. Looking at the stats of both players there is a huge gap between them, I really hope Manchester United have not made a big mistake and gambled with this player because it will be disastrous if that is the case, hopefully they have finally found their man this time.

The main reason for Chelsea's poor performance last season was due to internal conflicts within the club. The club has changed ownership. They changed coaches. Due to these various reasons, the internal condition of the Chelsea club was messy. This has affected the performance of the players. The performance of the players was erratic. And the coach wasn't able to help. And so the Chelsea management is preparing long before the start of the season to improve the performance of the Chelsea team in the next season. They have appointed a new coach. We don't know yet if Coach Poch can succeed. Adding more experienced players to the attack will probably make Chelsea's performance more dynamic.

one hand chelsea in the last season there was no reshuffle of players which caused player saturation or it could be said that these players were bored with the formation of players and needed new players who could bring this team to improve performance so that the arrival of this new coach carried out a major overhaul and recruiting several new players with the aim of strengthening each line but even so that does not mean that the strategy used by Pochettino will guarantee a better future, its just that Pochettino is trying his best for Chelsea performance and lets see if this summer there will be an extraordinary increase usual at chelsea.

The bond between Chelsea's players was poor last season. The coach failed to solidify this bond. This is why Chelsea's performance was unstable throughout the season. Even though Chelsea's squad is strong enough, we don't get good performances from them. And so the Chelsea management has tasked coach Pochettino with strengthening this squad. Big funds are prepared to add players of the coach's choice to the squad. Coach Pochettino has been given full freedom. Chelsea fans have faith in coach Pochettino, hopefully, we will see consistent performances from Chelsea next season.

The Chelsea fans still have faith in Pochettino because he's still doing what they want and believe is right, I only hope his litmus test is right when the real game starts, this is when you will decide whether they like him or not. The fans are desperate for a change and the only way it can happen is to buy and sell players, especially those that disconnecting. I've said it many times, the problem of Chelsea is not the lack of good players like you also said, it's a thing of psychology among players that is demoralising their activities. I hope the present change in management and players could reconnect them.

Arsenal have Ramsdale that has been doing well for them,making some very important saves last season,but from the look of things in this preseason,it really looked like Ramsdale is becoming reluctant  in making attempts to make some important saves the way he was doing before,and if Arsenal should sign this Raya,Ramsdale will be conscious of himself and try to be at his best every time,and then,the new Keeper will be feeling frustrated at the bench because I still believe Ramsdale is far more better than him.To me,this is just an attempt to make Ramsdale serious about keeping because he is the current number one,and they will find it difficult to get a goalie that will be as good as him.All he needs to do is to train more harder ahead of the season and to be at his best again.

Next season, Arsenal will play in UEFA Champion League and difference last season participants in Europe League only, I think Arsenal need the same quality level between main player and reserve. But goal keeper seems not really urgent for Arsenal signing new player due consistency from Aaron Ramsdale, he was success play all Premier League games last season and become most appearance Arsenal player with playing 38 games.

David Raya is good goals keeper and has consistent performance last season with Brentford, its will give competition between Aaron Ramsdale and Arsenal have good keeper for next season, not easy for signing David Raya and Arsenal should spent much expensive transfer fees for signing Spain goal keeper.

This guy is overrated, still remember how the crowd when Manchester United were signing Maguire and Sancho? one is perform like 20-30 Million Euros player while the another one is a nightmare for the team. Hojlund is playing for Atalanta and now Atalanta isn't a champion, it was different with Haaland where he carried Dortmund in every matches. Haaland is similar like Grealish when he was playing for Aston Villa.

The purpose of Pep Guardiola picking Erling Haaland to be his frontline attacker was because he knew the crucial challenges the Norway international would displayed towards his opponents. Erling Haaland is a goal machine and a top striker for the cityzens, perhaps he doesn't have a good footings on the ball. But with previous development and improvements, the striker starting to develop and improve in all rounds as a quality striker just like Harry Kane. We shouldn't compared the newly incoming Erling Haaland to Harry Kane, ofcourse the englishman have been in Tottenham Hotspur for years without lifting a title, the possible chances is his club are reluctant in performance and not ready to win a title yet.

Guardiola is someone with wide understanding of the game and what it takes to be a winner and a successful manager that is why it was so easy to identify a player like Erling Haaland to solve their attacking issues and help time win the champions league title last season but despite Haaland’s performance last season I still wouldn’t compare him to Harry Kane who is also a born scorer and English record breaking attacker who has stayed consistent and relevant for years in a top and tough league like the EPL. Maybe someday we would be able to make this comparison but for now they are miles away from each other.

Erling Haaland performed brilliantly for Manchester City last season. He has been able to score quite a few goals in both the Champions League and the Premier League, but towards the end of the season, we haven't seen a good performance from him. Many compare Erling Haaland with Harry Kane, but so far Erling Haaland is far behind Harry Kane. Erling Haaland doesn't have the finishing skills that Harry Kane has.  However, there is a considerable age difference between Erling Haaland and Harry Kane, it is expected that Erling Haaland will be a much better performer at Harry Kane's age and improve his game more.

It cannot be compared, harry Kane has been in the Tottenham team for a long time and he is also quite mature in age while Erling Haaland is a young player and in his first season with Manchester City he was able to make quite a contribution, I think that is very extraordinary, a player at such a young age being able to adapt quickly to a new team and win 3 titles at once, what Erling Haaland did was great in my opinion and cannot be compared to Kane who has been senior and has been with Tottenham for a long time.

Actually, Erling Haaland is very good in terms of quality. And Pep has seen and knows the talent that Erling Haaland has when he plays with Dortmund, so that's why Man City is very interested in recruiting him and making him the first choice.

Maguire and Sancho are failed players recruited by Man United, especially Maguire, who often makes a lot of blunders so the price bought is not in accordance with the club's expectations.
Hojlund must always have comparisons with other teams because he was bought at an expensive price of 75 million euros, we never know whether their action on the field will show that stunning will actually be a failed purchase again.
But Erik Ten Hag sees Hojlund as a talented young player but the coach's philosophy knows far more than us.

Maguire, yes, but Sancho cannot be called a failure and this season will be the season to decide whether he will fail or not based on my version because ever since Sancho landed at Old Trafford from Dourtmund, Manchester United's game has been in chaos.

Hojlund's statistics last season with Atalanta were good. He has a good percentage of dribbles, shots on target, accurate passes even though in the 2022/23 season Atalanta was only able to finish fifth in the Serie A standings.
His young age and that much price will be of particular concern so it is not wrong if many people will give an assessment of whether a Hojlund is suitable to be purchased at a price of 75 million euros.

Manchester United needed an experienced striker. As the team aims for the Premier League title next season. At the same time, Manchester United also managed to qualify for the Champions League. I don't know why Erik Ten Hag is adding a young player like Rasmus Hojlund to the squad without adding an experienced Striker. Rasmus Hojlund is quite a good striker. But we are not sure if he can do well with Manchester United next season. Rasmus Hojlund will certainly need a long time to adapt to Manchester United and the Premier League environment. A better performance is not expected from Rasmus Hojlund next season. Ten Hag is probably planning for the long-term now with the Manchester United squad.

I don't see this player much. But the stistics and price spent by Man United don't seem good enough in my opinion. But at a young age, already having a lot of experience with the senior team, makes him have great potential. I think not just in one year, he needs a lot of time to keep improving. So let's see, hopefully it won't be a failed purchase.

We still don't know how Rasmus Hojlund will perform. If he performs well, it is good for Manchester United. But Manchester United definitely needs an experienced striker.
Marcus Rashford is Manchester United's most experienced striker. And while Rashford is an excellent player, he is only 25 years old. He played very well in the last season. Rashford scored 17 three goals. However, if Manchester United's goal is the title, and if they want to maintain continuity in the Champions League, then they must add experienced players to the team. Otherwise, the team will not be able to survive in the competition.

Usually, young players will not get many chances to play in the starting line-up. So, if later for example, Hojlund is only placed as a player on the bench often, then it can be assumed that Hojlund will only be prepared as a second tier player and not included in the main squad. But yes, if Hojlund gets a place in the main squad often then it can be assumed, maybe Erik ten Hag has a different view about Hojlund which looks like maybe Hojlund has great potential too as time goes by. After all, a prediction of course, nothing is completely certain, so let's just wait and see how Hojlund will play in the actual match in the Premier League later.

We will see how great this striker is next season, is it possible that he will be able to compete with Halaand in the top scorer position or fail in the adaptation process.

This guy is overrated, still remember how the crowd when Manchester United were signing Maguire and Sancho? one is perform like 20-30 Million Euros player while the another one is a nightmare for the team.

Haaland is similar like Grealish when he was playing for Aston Villa.

It's true that both of them look like a nightmare for the Red Devils, their prices are very expensive but they can't live up to expectations at all. Sanco was recruited for 100 million Euros, and Maguire 80 million Euros. An investment that failed miserably for these two players.

Maguire and Sancho are failed players recruited by Man United, especially Maguire, who often makes a lot of blunders so the price bought is not in accordance with the club's expectations.

If in his first season Hojlund had not been injured, he could have matched Halaand at Man City. All will be proven once the official EPL rolls around, wish him all the best.

Erling Haaland is a very talented player and he has come from a team that does not participate in most of the World Cup tournaments. Without talent, it is not easy for a team like this to perform for a club in Europe's top tier and win the Champions League trophy. 
Erling Haaland's career has just begun and good things await him in the future. If Manchester City keep him in the team long term he will be more efficient especially if he can play under Pep then Pep will make him one of the best players in Europe and he will be a world class footballer.

The next generation of Messi, Neymar, and Ronaldo might be made up of players like Mbappe and Erling Haaland.

I hope Liverpool are not slow to heat. This problem occurred last season, although there were indeed several core players injured. Liverpool's player transfers are not so good either. Nunez was expected to compete with Haaland but it failed. Today they had the opportunity to make some transfers but it seems the management didn't do that. Maybe they will rely on Gakpo who is starting to perform well and of course giving more minutes to Nunez

Last season was exactly as you said Liverpool was late in the heat and they came out even better after not winning for seven games after beating Man United 7-0 if I'm not mistaken. Apart from Nunez, who did not develop much and was also affected by several other injured players, this made Liverpool's appearance inconsistent and difficult to get full points. This season it is hoped that Nunez and Gakpo can take on their respective roles to bring Liverpool to compete in the League standings.

The Liverpool transfer market is also not too aggressively looking for the players needed and they even release several players to other clubs for several reasons. If they only rely on the few players they have, we are very worried that this will have the same impact as last season, because competition in the Premier League will be even more competitive with the arrival of many new players at other clubs.

Rashford scored 17 three goals. However, if Manchester United's goal is the title, and if they want to maintain continuity in the Champions League, then they must add experienced players to the team. Otherwise, the team will not be able to survive in the competition.

Actually, Rasmus Højlund hasn't impressive performance last season with Atalanta by scoring 9 goals from 32 matches in domestic league, its not really promising striker exactly with Primer League who know most hardest competition than Serie A. I doubt for first season he will adapt well with Manchester United and possibility scoring many goals. Probably Rasmus Højlund still young striker 20 years old, I don't sure how potential is he with Manchester United next season actually he has two weeks left for adapting before Manchester United first match Wolves two weeks later.

Marcus Rashford  is most experienced striker for Manchester United right now, but Erik ten Hag put him as winger than central striker and United really need with experienced striker for next season. Expectation signing Harry Kane but the reality Manchester United fans have to accept with Rasmus Højlund.

[HajiBagi]

I don't think many of you have spoken about Liverpool during pre-season - why have they been ignored?
I know Liverpool weren't so good last season and they won't qualify for the Champions League next season - but I'm sure we'll do our best next season.

Performance-wise - I think Liverpool have done quite well in pre-season. Liverpool won 2/3 of the games and Darwin Nunez looked better right now. Darwin Nunez managed to score 4 goals in those 3 match - so I hope Halaand will get some tough competition from him next season. In a few hours - Liverpool will againt Bayern Munich. I hope Darwin Nunez scores too - it will give him a lot of confidence going into the Premier League.

I am not happy with Liverpool's performance; the team needs a midfielder. If you consider the preseason game between Liverpool and Bayern Munich today, you will understand what I mean. The game started out well, but Liverpool scored two goals before Bayern Munich, and before it was over, Bayern Munich scored again to defeat Liverpool 4-3. To be honest, it would be better if Liverpool didn't waste opportunity to sign a midfield player, Because the league will begin in a few weeks and will be even more difficult than before, if they didn't acquire a solid midfielder, I don't think they can still qualify to the champion league in the next season.

Bayern Munich fought back despite Liverpool's best efforts to defeat them because they could see that Liverpool's midfield position had changed. Every position in football needs to be secured and occupied by a player who is capable of doing so, and the midfield is where a team will struggle to score goals and will quickly tyre because the midfield player is the one who will be required to carry the bulk of the team's weight. My counsel to Liverpool is to move quickly and sign a quality midfielder to prevent underwhelming performances the following season.

Expectations are high for Hojlund. I hope he can play successful matches at Manchester United. High-level performance like Haaland should not be expected. I think he can be considered successful for Manchester United if he performs over 15 goals a year. I agree with what you said about Maguire. He's hurting Manchester United now.

[piebeyb]

Actually, Erling Haaland is very good in terms of quality. And Pep has seen and knows the talent that Erling Haaland has when he plays with Dortmund, so that's why Man City is very interested in recruiting him and making him the first choice.

Guardiola is a great coach he knows which players have good potential for his club and that is why he was not wrong to bring Haaland to Manchester City and eventually became the top scorer in the EPL with 36 goals and succeeded in bringing Manchester City to a treble winner, Guardiola is always right in his looking for talented players he even has a keen instinct in analyzing players.

He placed the players in the Manchester City squad in the right positions so they could be solid when playing on the field, therefore Haaland has become more passionate when playing in Manchester City since Guardiola brought him from Dortmund to Manchester City. I think Haaland will give his best game again in this season which will start soon in the near future.

Liverpool pre-season matches was not very encouraging at all, partly I will attribute their lacklustre performance in those matches to lack of an experience defensive midfielder in the team the duo of Henderson and Fabinho who used to play those role had left the club to Saudi Arabian league consequently Liverpool would really struggle in that position, though McAllister had been signed to play that role is he going to deliver? time will tell when the league start and from their last match against Bayern Munich it looks like McAllister is injured having limped off when he was substituted either of Fabinho or Henderson should have been retained by Kloop unfortunately they were all sold out.
