Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Alpha Marine]

Tottenham would have had more goals should Maddison had been a little less stingy with his second attempt. Richarlison still finding it difficult to replicate what he did for Brazil in his current Tottenham side. Can’t say he ain’t trying or giving it his best but his game plan don’t seem to align.

Richarlison is going to be a problem for Tottenham if they don't look for another attacker before the window closes. There's is no way they'll make it to the top 4 with Richarlison leading their attack.
I know he was a very good player at Everton, even though he wasn't the kind of player to give you 30 goals a season, he was decent. But right now I don't understand what's wrong with him, he's so awful and it's so shameful to see.
I hope he finds his footing soon because Tottenham needs him now that they're without Harry Kane.

This is a very epic comeback. In my opinion, it must be admitted that in the second half, Man United's game was really cool. The pattern of the game changes very clearly, one or two touch passes are also fun to watch. As soon as Bruno Fernandes became MOTM in that match, he really deserved it because he is everywhere and he is also a hard worker so that in that match he gave 100% of his abilities for Man United.

Antony also looks very good, this is unusual when he plays, he has a lot of variations in building attacks. The entry of players like Lindelof brought calm to the Man United defense. And the most interesting thing for me is Rashford, he played very well and was even able to stab into the opponent's defense and even resulted in a penalty for Man United.

I agree it was an epic comeback from Manchester United after trailing two quick goals from Nottingham in the first 5 minutes. But anyway I think Manchester United made a big mistake in the first half which they shouldn't have made. Even without the penalty and Nottingham's red card, I don't know what the best scenario is to win that game.

Manchester United finally managed to win this game in the end, which is certainly a good thing after a disappointing last week. I was really expecting a good improvement from Manchester United this season after Ten Hag managed to end the season in the top 4 last season. Manchester United deserves to compete for titles instead of competing for top 4.

Manchester United were very lucky so they won the match. I am not satisfied with Manchester United's gameplay. Manchester United conceded two stupid goals in just 4 minutes. This is not the kind of performance we want to see from a team like United. However, Manchester United's squad is still quite weak. Despite having many star players in the team, they are not performing well. Looking forward to see how United perform against Arsenal in the upcoming match.
 
United needed an experienced striker this season. But United coach Ten Hag has picked a young striker like Rasmus Hojlund. I look forward to seeing if Hojlund is able to perform well. But I think bringing Hojlund into the team is a bad investment for United this season.

I don't think coming from a two goals down to win an English Premier League match should be tagged "lucky". Manchester United's win against Nottingham Forest was a well deserved win that came as a reward for a team that fought till the last minute of the game to claim all three points.
Erik Ten Hag I think deserves some praises for those tactical changes that made them win the game.

Regardless of whether it was luck or not what Manchester needs to be grateful for is the indiscipline of the Nottingham players that made them make a comeback after 2 goals down because if there was no red card and penalty I think it would still be difficult to make a comeback because the most likely is a draw.

But on the other hand, in this match Manchester United must also be aware that they still have a lot of gaps especially when serving set pieces and counter attacks.
2 goals within 4 minutes (in the first minute of kick off) is really a weakness that must be anticipated as soon as possible so that it does not happen again in the next match especially in the next 2 weeks they will face a difficult match.

Richarlison is a great player and I still believe that he can do better than he’s performing now, he just needs good training and a good coach to make him the player they really wanted him to be for them. After Harry Kane left, so much have been expected from him and I think he should be given more time to improve and adapt to the new changes in the team, with that; I believe he’ll do better for the team and fulfill the aim of his position.

That was a no luck win and Manchester United needs to be giving their accolades for a job welldone. From 2 goals down to equalising and then wining the game, it was such a great game for them and they deserved the win today. After losing their last game to Tottenham Hotspur, I expected them to win this and seeing two goals down from the first half before the break, I feared that they’ll lose the match even though they had most of the attacking than Nottingham Forest. It was such a bad luck for Nottingham Forest not been able to defend their two goals and allowed Manchester United to equalize and win the game again.

Yesterday I saw a piece of shocking news about Manchester United, since Mason Greenwood is not guilty of the rape case and he is under investigation anymore and he can continue his career in his team but after the drama he had, he said can't continue anymore and that's why Mason Greenwood said he wants to get retired at this age while he is still a 21-year-old player and he can play for years.

The player in question is a prominent player, ofcourse every manager would want him in their club, but the incident that happened retrained elite clubs for opening bids for him. Things getting really messy at Old Trafford this season, we witnessing the entire scenario going on in the club. Greenwood is an outstanding player that suits really good at the frontlines, but his dream of playing for United have been shattered. Mason Greenwood issue is complicated, because he has alot of haters at Old Trafford that wants him to exits the club this summer. Manchester United board have no hands but to refrained him from been part of the club, that's very important.

I don't know how Arsenal managed to leave two points against Fulham today. Despite Fulham's getting a red card they still managed to score the equalizer and get one point from this game. Fulham had only 2 goal attempts in the whole second half I mean. Arsenal were unlucky at the same time but it isn't just like that of course.

Arsenal should have captured a better score advantage in the game earlier to end the hopes of their opponent. Fulham aren't a poor team. If you let them keep their hopes alive they can surprise you like this. They even lost their goal source Mitrovic to Saudi Arabia but they still managed to get the point here.

Beautiful game in london as David Moyes shows Brighton hows it done!! An action packed evening which saw West Ham lead Brighton after just 33 passes at half time. David Moyes didn't just park the bus; he ensured to deal with Brighton away from home and bagged 3 vital points and now top of the league too!!! With signings such as Kudus yet to be integrated to the squad; it promises to be an exciting season for West Ham.

It has always been west ham way of playing, they try to get the first goal and once they have successfully scored a goal they just sit back and defend and leave Antonio and Bowen up front to do their thing. They did the same thing to chelsea last week and they have succeeded with Brighton as well. Antonio and Bowen are the perfect ones for that kind of job and now that they have signed Kudus they will even look more dangerous than ever. I never expected West ham to win especially going away to face the most dangerous team in the league, Brighton who won their last 2 matches with enough goal margin.

A draw is a result that Fulham deserved, they worked so hard on the pitch with their defensive strategy, based on match statistics, they only had 28% possession while Arsenal had 72%. I'm sure no one would have thought that Fulham could get 1 point in this match, it's like something that doesn't make sense with all the statistics there.

Fulham suprised everyone today traveling away from home to face Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium and sharing the points. They almost won the game had it been the final chance was converted but Arsenal’s goal keeper made a wonderful save. Fulham really tried and worked so hard so i also think they deserved a point.

I was disappointed in Arsenal’s performance today they don’t play the way they played last season maybe it was because of some players that left. If they want to be compete with Manchester City they can’t afford to drop points against a team like fulham, they should up their game else they will find it difficult to challenge for the top 4 spot.

[Issa56]

After a red card for Bessie it looked like they could win, but Fulham were able to equalize. In such matches, when the team is completely superior to the opponent, it's a shame to lose points.

It was really surprising to me for Fulham to equalise after having a red card in the match. Arsenal should be ashamed of that. Fulham played a nice game today against Arsenal, they couldn’t win the match, but they went away with 1 point, which is not really bad for Fulham. It’s surprising to see Arsenal struggling to win Fulham, but they couldn't. The only person I will blame for Arsenal's current performance is Arteta. He knows the right formation to use, but I don’t really know what’s wrong with him. He made a mistake by signing Havertz. I don’t know why Arteta keeps on using him. Harvertz is a great disaster for Arsenal.

Ok I wasn't aware that Postecoglou is such an amazing manager. How many titles has he won? I tried to find anything, but couldn't. I think I just trust your knowledge and believe that he is the right man and very skilled.

If you can deliver some substance to back up your post then please share it here.

It seems that Ange Postecoglou was very successful when he coached the Celtic team so that he became an attraction for the Tottenham management team to show himself as a Tottenham coach this season. Well, we have seen satisfactory results from the matches played by Tottenham where they were able to beat Manchester United and Bournemouth in today's match and one draw against Brentford.

But what's interesting with tottenham where they just lost harry kane because harry kane left for bayern munich. However, without him, Tottenham performance has not experienced difficulties in the matches they have played because they have won the 2 wins they have played. I think if they can keep their concentration in every game maybe they will be able to provide more impressive competition in the standings this season.

[Spack17]

It wasn't a comfortable day for Manchester United at all. The xG of them shouldn't mislead people. Because they got 2-0 behind and still managed to make a really difficult comeback to win by 3-2. The red card came after it became 2-2 made Manchester United believe in themselves more to even win this match.

Fernandes had a big contribution in this comeback with a goal and an assist. I must admit on the other hand that Manchester United defense wasn't good at all today. Varane and Martinez need to improve next time. They are both decent defenders in fact but they need to be more consistent.

Harry Kane's transfer to Bayern Munich didn't happen overnight. It was talked about in the press for weeks and months. Tottenham should have found an alternative to Harry Kane by now. They must have thought Richarlison could handle it. However, they should have made another signing to create competition within the team. Also, Richarlison will sometimes underperform, sometimes be suspended and sometimes injured. As a matter of fact, he didn't perform well in this match either. Tottenham were more effective after Perisic entered the game in his place. However, Tottenham should have had a wide and alternative squad. I think Richarlison will perform well during the season but Tottenham's management are wrong in this regard.

Infact it has nothing to do with well deserve, Manchester United has nothing to with the top four if they continue with such poor performance, another day to watch the defense parading stupidly. People already saying stuff's like Onana did this and that, but with both goals, it has nothing to do with Onana.

There are some players playing against Manchester United Erik Ten Hag needs to stop the usage of such players. They face of with Arsenal next week it should a week also for Arsenal to win but they didn't have a good game against Fulham too.

[Leviathan.007]

Chelsea's performance tonight against Luton is absolutely great and also a testament for the significant improvement at the club since the arrival of their club's new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Raheem Sterling has really improved his playing abilities from what we saw from him last season and tonights brace will definitely help boost his confidence when he's with ball. Chelsea might not win the English Premier League title this season but if they continue to deliver great performances like we saw tonight, they'll definitely have a good campaign.

Chelsea finally got their first win of the season against Luton in today's match. All the fans are eagerly waiting for Chelsea first win under Pochettino and finally he can give his first victory. Playing at home is certainly a significant momentum for Chelsea in this match and they did not waste this opportunity because Chelsea showed their best game in today match.

But we also see that the opponent they are facing is not that strong and of course we want to see Chelsea win the game when they face a team that is as strong in terms of squad depth be it against Arsenal or Manchester United. Surely we will look forward to that in the upcoming matches. But for that, the achievement of these 3 points is quite meaningful for Chelsea because it can increase the enthusiasm of the players to continue to look good in the upcoming matches.

In the game between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest, they had bad moments, and the whole stadium was shocked when Nottingham Forest scored two goals in four minutes and Manchester United was very close to losing everything in this game.
I think the red card Joe Worrall got in this game made Manchester United take the three points from this match.

Matchday 3 results in EPL

- Arsenal Vs Fullham | 2 - 2 ( Draw)
- Brighton vs West Ham | 1 - 3 (West Ham Win)

I was just laughing at myself for the results in these 2 matches.
I went multi by listing Brighton, Arsenal and Manchester City as one of my favourites to win this week but the results were really funny for my bets. I was so confident with Brighton and Arsenal especially looking at the first two weeks for their performance but in the end my confidence had to be broken with 2 results that I didn't really expect.
I will still bet on Manchester City but maybe in this case I need to be more controlled now.

My multi was getting collapse in the match between arsenal vs fulham. We got fucked by palhinha. Lol. Im not picking the match between brighton vs westham caused by it's very hard to determine the result from the game.
I meant westham is also very strong at this moment. JWP, Antonio, even paqueta have been making westham even stronger than when rice was there. No rice no problem, but westham has been showing great improvement.
Even westham was able destroying brighton away, which is unbelievable. Westham's level is pretty much the same like the top club in EPL. My guess if manchester city will be winning the match as it was facing easy opponent.
People thought that brighton far stronger than westham but they forgot that if westham had JWP on its club which is considerable as a guy with crazy assist.

[SatoPrincess]

Westham shocked the world today, I know a lot of persons have staked high on this game with hopes that Brighton will cruise past Westham to continue their winning Streak to three wins in a row but will be so disappointed by the outcome. I am still in shock by the results for a team that recored 16% ball possession at a point in the game. Good tactics from David Moyes, his ability to read the game well and provide a good solution turned out to pay off for the team.

Tottenham Hotspur's failure to sign another striker that'll replace their former captain Harry Kane was down to the fact that they had a good replacement already for him in the person of Richarlison and I despite the difficulty to kick the ground running, the Brazilian is gonna scoring goals for fun in no distant time.
Richarlison has the quality and potentials to replace Harry Kane at the club just that he needs some time to finally adapt the playing style of the new manager. Tottenham are winning their games and that's the most important thing at the moment.

[Pokapoka124]

The results are in. Man Utd with a hard-fought win and 3 points, Arsenal had to share the points with Fulham. Based on what I've seen so far this season:

- Man Utd: struggling
- Arsenal: struggling
- Chelsea: struggling (I know they got a win yesterday but still)
- Liverpool: Poor defense even with solid attack
- Man city: almost toothless without KDB delivering balls and assists to Haaland.

Brace up everyone. Its going to be an action-packed season. If Arsenal continues like this, they would lose plenty of points in coming games.

Obviously it is gojng to be a long season because until now I cannot point out one top team that I can say is balanced at the moment. Arsenal still look shaky even if they have won two and drawn 1 in three games. Chelsea and Liverpool also are struggling, The two Manchester clubs too because if Manchester City play against a tough team with this performance level, there is every tendency they will drop points.

[SatoPrincess]

Havertz was awful. Starting with Trossard was a mistake. If Partey will be sent I don't know why Arteta still starting him.

What was Arteta and the board thinking when they bought K. Havertz? Did they think he could be a significant addition to the team and bring about any significant change… I think not. It’s just going to be the same as it were in Chelsea. That’s just how bad he plays.

Well, they didn’t lose but sharing point was very much not the plan for Arsenal in a home game against a team like Fulham. They just had a rough start letting Fulham take the lead and Fulham managed a good defense in the game, even with a one man down at the 80+ minute, they still managed to maintain there play but, it was a long added time from the way Arsenal played. They didn’t make it look any easy, they were about the Fulham box till the final whistle. Won’t count this to be a lose for Arsenal, they just didn’t had a bad day in letting Fulham get the most of them with that equalizer.

You’re not far from the truth. Kai Harvertz has not impressed me since the season kicked off, maybe there are certain qualities the professionals see in him on the pitch that I don’t. Sharing points is certainly a disappointing result, Arsenal should doing everything possible to get a win because that is the only way they can give Manchester City a run for the league trophy this season. It is so frustrating that even with Fulham conceding a red card, Arsenal still couldn’t hold on to the win and gave away two points today. I really anticipated a win today, it is so disappointing.

[Sexylizzy2813]

I watched some of the highlights of the games played today and I discovered that this particular team have no reason to still be playing in the EPL up till now, I can't believe they can't win, even if they win they can't score more than 1 goal, if they're leading by a goal they can't defend and the highest they can get is a draw, and they're ready to play full time goalless. Like what on earth is going on with that club?
I'm talking about Everton, they're one lazy club that you can't rely on. Playing against Wolves was a game I thought they'd come with all they've got like something better to win since both teams have same strength to me.
I just don't know if they're going to survive relegation this season and they don't even have a style of play, the next thing you hear is that they've sacked the coach of the side Everton, too bad the team only knows how to play against bigger teams to get a point.
