Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[naira]

A red card in the game between Chelsea Aston villa was very much avoidable but it was sad Chelsea got the card regardless, I don't know if to blame it on the player or anyone but one thing I think for sure was that it was very unnecessary at that point, there are other big team they will get a red card against and I will see it as worth it to an extent but not for a team like Aston villa.

I can't stop expressing my disappointment towards Chelsea on that game as everything about that particular got me really sick, this is because they were my favorite for that game and I was very optimistic about them because I felt having had so many loss earlier they would want to make up for it with that game but they did not only losses the game they as well played very poorly.

Anyone will definitely be annoyed with Chelsea's performance this season, because as a big club their existence is increasingly far from what they previously showed in the Premier League. Losing to Aston Villa continued to make matters worse, and I saw several clips of Chelsea fans expressing their emotions in front of the media.

But how will Todd Beohly react to his club? just focused on calculating what profits he could gain from a club that was starting to collapse. As a result, who is now experiencing great pressure? The coach and all Chelsea players were bombarded with criticism from fans. We are not yet sure that Chelsea will be fine, a very drastic setback at the start of the season has left them in the position they deserve to be in.

The red card issue actually destabilized the entire game plan for Chelsea, from the replay of that tackle, and if it were to be some referee they might have considered that tackle as not a red card offense but should have been decided as a yellow card offense rather, the tackle in my opinion was not that intentional as they offender went for the ball first before matching on the opponents leg.  Anyways, performance was bad and Chelsea did have ample opportunity to have gotten a goal but they couldn't utilize any.

[bots1]

After last year's poor ranking, fans of course expected better performance this year, but we saw that Chelsea started to lose blood when they started to send some important players from the team at the beginning of the year. Their places could not be easily filled. They seem to be missing a striker and are having great trouble scoring goals. They will have to deal with this problem.

It is difficult to know what caused Chelsea to be where they are now, even though they have spent a lot of money buying players and in the Premier League Chelsea is one of the clubs that spends the most money buying players. If you look at their performance in the English league, it is very disappointing and Chelsea only experienced one win in the English league when they faced Luton Town, the rest were draws and defeats.

It seems there are several problems that make Chelsea performance so poor. First, the transition to change ownership to Todd Boehly has changed the club principles. Even though Boehly is not stingy with money, maybe even a little more profligate than Roman Abramovich, his ideas are different and his philosophy is different. Second, Chelsea is bringing in too many young players. As a measure of competency in the Premier League, clubs need experienced players to be able to perform optimally and be able to compete to win the title. Third, the absence of veteran players at the club makes it difficult for young players to find role models. From a technical perspective, they also don't understand each other. However, if you look at the individual quality of Chelsea young players, they are not that bad. However, the chemistry has not yet been achieved.

MANCHESTER UNITED AND CHELSEA FC, which is better or which will have a better season?

We all saw and understood how last season was among the worst season of Chelsea Football Club in the recent time. After the change of management and successive change of coaches, they were unable to end above the top 10 in last season's English Premier League. For the fact that they bought many new talents, we expected them to perform better this season but to my surprise Chelsea is still struggling to play good football.
In the other hand, Manchester United my club did very well under their coach Eric who was new then. Everyone expected that they will consolidate their performance this season,  but this season is trying to be a different story for them.

The coach and all Chelsea players were bombarded with criticism from fans. We are not yet sure that Chelsea will be fine, a very drastic setback at the start of the season has left them in the position they deserve to be in.

Honestly, I am also confused about this Chelsea, what happened to them, right in the middle of other clubs performing better and gradually rising from the standings by being able to give a pretty good performance, but Chelsea is still far from expectations, they are even worse and almost at the bottom of the bottom order. Obviously this is even worse than last season, it is only natural that Blues fans are disappointed with their performance, in fact the huge money Todd has spent means nothing and there is even no progress at all from this club.

In my opinion there is absolutely no benefit gained by Todd except for deep disappointment, I understand Pochettino is a pretty good coach and he has enough experience handling English league clubs, but why and what is wrong with Chelsea. Are they really having problems in terms of adaptation of all their new players? I don't know but I say this has been going on for a long time and there should be a little progress from them. I hope Pochettino will really be able to handle the problems at his club.

[topbitcoin]

That is not a mistake because seeing from what Chelsea are doing this season with 6 early matches 1 win, 2 draws and 3 defeats has proven that Chelsea are still playing very badly and the conditions are the same as last season even though they have spent a lot to overhaul so that the club plays well.

The new players need more adaptation but the problem is that their massive overhaul almost makes these adaptation players have no backup from senior players or those who have been in Chelsea or EPL for a long time which makes this even more difficult.

Blaming some of the new players is also not too much of a problem because some of the new players are underperforming but if only the players and coaches are blamed without seeing the dilapidated management too I think it's unfair.

It is very strange the performance of Chelsea even after such time and after such big spending last year for good quality players which in the field are not responding to their amount.I think that while I believed these players needed time as they suffered from injuries quite some of them,right now is a different scenario,the injuries are gone but the bad results are still here and this means that it was not a problem of injuries after all.

They have gotten a better coach which unfortunately even he is not showing the desired results and I don't want to be in Chelsea management right now as I would not know what to do really.

I forgot the injury factor of the players thanks remind you friend because some Chelsea players as we know some players have to be in the treatment room a little longer like Nkunku, Fofana, Broja or Badiashile indeed it is annoying but on the other hand even if some of their players are in the treatment room but linking it to the overall poor performance this time it still makes no sense because until today Chelsea is bad with the excuse of player injuries actually it is too exaggerated because in fact their own performance is bad and cannot blame the injured players with their current performance.

Nobody wants to be in the poor state that they are because of circumstances that must have been considered to bring about that situation.  In a difficult competitive atmosphere, everyone does their hardest to be in a better position than their competitors. They simply need to put in more effort to improve the quality of their play in order to compete with the other teams in the league.

Chelsea are currently in such awful form that it's difficult to pinpoint the source of the problem. Is it the players' fault or the manager's fault now? I've seen a lot of effort from all sides to rebuild this squad and continue working. But their efforts have yet to bear fruit; perhaps we should all give them more time to improve.

Who knows the injured players are the right player for them, but still I belive in does players that if they return they will make a different. Even though it not an excuse for them but their performance is really very poor, and must of new player will gradually be adapting with style of playing.

Between Manchester United and Chelsea, who do you think will have a better season?

Currently, both Chelsea and Manchester United are dealing with internal issues affecting their gameplay, despite having quality players on their squads. In the case of Erik ten Hag, player confidence has been shaken due to some questionable decisions regarding player selection. As for Mauricio Pochettino, he hasn't yet figured out the right gameplay for Chelsea. If this situation doesn't improve soon, both teams might find themselves struggling in the relegation battle.

Second, Chelsea is bringing in too many young players.  As a measure of competency in the Premier League, clubs need experienced players to be able to perform optimally and be able to compete to win the title. Third, the absence of veteran players at the club makes it difficult for young players to find role models. From a technical perspective, they also don't understand each other. However, if you look at the individual quality of Chelsea young players, they are not that bad. However, the chemistry has not yet been achieved.

I agree with you on this point. Chelsea is lacking experienced players who can serve as true leaders, guiding the team's style of play. It seems like all of Chelsea's players are somewhat lost and unable to fully utilize their strengths at the moment.

Between Manchester United and Chelsea, who do you think will have a better season?

So far, when Chelsea meets below average opponents, they still draw and lose, while Manchester United meets below average clubs and still wins, therefore Manchester United's win yesterday shows that they are better than Chelsea, just look at there is no change at all. From Chelsea it seems they need to change their management because they have made mistakes in recruiting players in the main squad which has not had the slightest good impact.

The new coach doesn't seem to be bringing results at the start of this season they didn't get good results in the last five games they only got a win once and the rest were draws and defeats, that's why I think Manchester United is better than Chelsea this season even though both clubs are not looks good lately.

The 8 goals scored by Newcastle were truly extraordinary. Because how can that happen every time a goal is scored by a different person. Was that intentional? I don't think so. But it was a very funny and unique coincidence.
This victory will indeed increase the team's motivation so that they will be more confident in the next matches they have to face.

Because Newcastle will not only face PSG in the Champions League. But in 3 days, Newcastle will also face a tough opponent, namely Manchester City, in the EFL Cup. In this match, Newcastle was the host. So Newcastle must not disappoint their supporters.
After that, Newcastle must produce another big result in the Premier League when they face Burnley next week. So that Newcastle can maintain motivation when facing PSG in the Champions League group stage.

Newcastle are not in good form this season lose 3matchs and win2, but they beat Sheffield United I know Sheffield United are moving to relegation again because they have not won a single match since the season began, Newcastle play well, but I am confident Manchester City will beat them in their next match because they are not good enough to challenge Manchester City this season, Even PSG will most defeat them in the Champions League, but let's see what happens because football is unpredictable and anything can happen If Newcastle has the opportunity to defeat PSG in the Champions League, they can't beat Manchester City, because no team as defeat Manchester city this season in both champions and EPL.

Maybe you are right that Newcastle still doesn't have a high chance of beating Manchester City in that match. I also thought something similar about that. But at least with high motivation the Newcastle squad should be able to survive and not lose points. Sharing 1 point I think would be pretty good. Because currently Manchester City is in slightly declining performance because several Manchester City players have not recovered from injuries.

Well, let's see what the results of the Newcastle vs Manchester City match will be. Maybe the results of this match can also be used as material for analysis for Newcastle's match against PSG in the Champions League.

I kind of have hope for Man Utd to have a better season than Chelsea right now, Chelsea FC is nearing beyond repair and If time is not taken relegation is their next destination point as their chances of going to relegation are on the steady increase. The presence of Pochettino as manager hasn't yielded any results so far, and likely that nothing will change at any time soon.

Jadon Sancho has deactivated his Instagram account as of today and like us all because of the commotion that Sancho is currently having with his coach Erik Ten Hag. Some reports say that Sancho has been exiled from the main squad and he can only train with Manchester United academy players. But not only that, Sancho was also prohibited from using all the facilities in the main squad team, including he was not allowed to enter the dining room.

I think Erik ten Hag really wants to discipline his problematic players and I think what Erik ten Hag has done is quite right. In fact, if Sancho wants to apologize to Erik ten Hag all the problems will be resolved and if he still doesn't want to apologize then it is certain that he will leave next winter because Erik ten Hag also doesn't want this problem to continue to drag on.

The coach and all Chelsea players were bombarded with criticism from fans. We are not yet sure that Chelsea will be fine, a very drastic setback at the start of the season has left them in the position they deserve to be in.

Although I may not really be a Chelsea fan. But I also felt the disappointment. I don't know why, but I miss Chelsea's previous performance when it was still owned by the previous owner. I also started to feel sorry for all the Chelsea players and coaches. They are all the ones bearing the pressure from Chelsea fans at the moment.

Last season I lost a lot in my bets at Chelsea. And this season it happened again. I think Todd Boehly has to do something to get his club back on track. Even though Todd Boehly has actually spent a lot of money to build the Chelsea squad so that it returns to its best performance. So I also don't blame the owner who has actually sacrificed a lot of money. I just hope Todd Boehly doesn't prioritize his ego too much in the formation of the Chelsea club.

It is clear that Manchester United is better than Chelsea, and even though Manchester United is still far from being at the top of the standings, at least from the results of 6 matches they have achieved 3 wins compared to Chelsea who only won 1 win. And I still believe and hope that Ten Hag can improve and improve his performance for Manchester United, so that he can compete at the top of the standings and get the UCL next season.
I have doubts about Chelsea, and I think Chelsea will continue like that and there is a possibility that they will be in the relegation zone if they are still under Pochettino.

What Erik ten Hag did was indeed quite appropriate for player discipline, but we also have to see that while Erik ten Hag was coaching Manchester United and at Ajax previously he had a lot of problems as a coach with players, not just with Jadon Sancho, I don't mean to defend Sancho, but I think Tenh Hag also has to lower his ego and prioritize the development of the team he handles.
Now that Manchester United is in a very bad state, I think it has quite an impact on the Chemsetry of players and coaches who are not very compatible so that there is no harmony in this squad to carry out all the instructions from Ten Hag by the players.

The presence of Pochettino as manager hasn't yielded any results so far, and likely that nothing will change at any time soon.

Watching both clubs clashing now, ofcourse it won't be entertaining and tough because both clubs are presently struggling. Mauricio Pochettino is an average coach, he do have experience in managing elite clubs but he doesn't have the capacity to continue in streak winnings. We know the major problem of Chelsea, they're inconsistent and the new coach made signings of average players, not one of these signings are experience, playing football as mediocre players. Comparing Manchester united to Chelsea, we already know the answer because the Blues are not in good shape, they're struggling to win league games while United are one step ahead of the blues.

It is very strange the performance of Chelsea even after such time and after such big spending last year for good quality players which in the field are not responding to their amount.I think that while I believed these players needed time as they suffered from injuries quite some of them,right now is a different scenario,the injuries are gone but the bad results are still here and this means that it was not a problem of injuries after all.

They have gotten a better coach which unfortunately even he is not showing the desired results and I don't want to be in Chelsea management right now as I would not know what to do really.

Even if Chelsea season has gotten off to a challenging start, it would be premature to write them off. There is still plenty of time to make up the points deficit. It is  important to remember that coaching techniques and overall team dynamics also play a part, even though new players adjusting to English football culture may be an influence. Senior player support has been severely limited by the makeover, which increases the difficulty. To solve the issues thoroughly, it is crucial to take into account players and coaches while also assessing the club management. Chelsea still has time to change their season because they still have games left to play.

[SeriouslyGiveaway]

It seems like there are a lot people blaming Mauricio Pochettino as the Chelsea manager who hasn't had a big influence on Chelsea, but no one blames the Chelsea players.
Mauricio Pochettino has a wealth experience and I thinks Mauricio Pochettino has tried his best to improve the Chelsea club. It is difficult for any professional coach to makes the club rise if it does not have star players or capable players and it is possible that Mauricio Pochettino will have difficulty in building the club if the players are not able to develop well and it is not easy for Mauricio Pochettino to improve the club performance if there is no teamwork and also build good chemistry so that a club can unite to rise from adversity.
I am also concerned about the Chelsea club which has experienced a lot decline and Chelsea performance is decreasing which means they are now in 14th place in the standings and only got 5 point.  [/left]

Yes, it's evident that we can't deny Mauricio Pochettino's talent and experience, but this time around, there are several disadvantages working against him. I believe that having star players isn't always necessary to achieve good results, as seen in the case of Leicester City in the past. What matters most is the internal solidarity and unity of the team.

I think Erik ten Hag really wants to discipline his problematic players and I think what Erik ten Hag has done is quite right. In fact, if Sancho wants to apologize to Erik ten Hag all the problems will be resolved and if he still doesn't want to apologize then it is certain that he will leave next winter because Erik ten Hag also doesn't want this problem to continue to drag on.

Regarding Sancho, it's indeed a disappointing signing, and I think Manchester United's leadership and Ten Hag shouldn't be lenient with players of this type. Sancho's unprofessional attitude on the field, along with his disrespect towards teammates and the coach, is exactly what Cristiano Ronaldo mentioned in an interview.

After the change of management and successive change of coaches, they were unable to end above the top 10 in last season's English Premier League. For the fact that they bought many new talents, we expected them to perform better this season but to my surprise Chelsea is still struggling to play good football.
In the other hand, Manchester United my club did very well under their coach Eric who was new then. Everyone expected that they will consolidate their performance this season,  but this season is trying to be a different story for them.

Between Manchester United and Chelsea, who do you think will have a better season?

According to my point of view regarding what Chelsea is currently experiencing, the problem lies not with the players, but with the strategy used by the coach. When a chef is equipped with enough food ingredients to prepare delicious food, but you cannot produce delicious food, don't blame the ingredients but the chef's credibility and ability need to be questioned.
Pochettino cannot be maintained for too long, he has failed to coach Chelsea. The dismissal must be carried out immediately to save Chelsea from falling deeper.

Ten Hag needs time to put together the pieces that have been scattered in the Manchester United squad, Manchester United's performance has declined due to the injuries of many of their core players. In the question season with Manchester United, he was able to improve the team's performance significantly which resulted in MU qualifying for the UCL after a long wait. Ten Hag is going through difficult times with Manchester United, he must be given the opportunity because he has proven capable of handling Manchester United in the first season of his career in the EPL.
​
In my opinion, Manchester United is better than Chelsea, Manchester United still has the opportunity to recover in the near future, while Chelsea will find it very difficult to recover from their illness as long as Pochettino is still trusted as a tactician.
