Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[hyudien]

My thoughts on Chelsea's predicament are as follows. It's really confusing. Although they have a strong team, how do they perform? Not in that way. This leads me to believe that coaching is more of a problem. Pochettino's numbers don't give me much hope, and the team's league standings reflect this. Don't you believe they should be much higher, considering Chelsea's budget and talent? To maximize the skill pool, the coaching approach must change - possibly even become a little more inventive. It takes more than simply skill to play football; it takes strategic, astute football. And Chelsea appears to be falling short there right now

I agree and also want to add why Chelsea cannot maximize the abilities of its players due to Pochettino limited strategy. True or not but so far when players cannot show  their abilities then the main  problem is with the coach. However the coach will be the main source of criticism before commenting on his players performance. In my opinion this is a challenge in itself for Pochettino who is faced with club management, sometimes Chelsea can be suitable when facing  tough opponents but after this victory it is no longer visible against lower level clubs. This means that  there is still a gap between the strategy and the trainer's way of approaching it.

 Everton game against Crystal Palace in the FA CUP has shown how serious they are even though we know them to be too poor in performance, since the deduction of point I see Everton as a team that won't struggle for relegation this season and the force they are putting to stay up is just magnificent. With the red card last night they still managed to play out a draw against the 11 men of Crystal Palace and I'm having that feeling that Everton would get a win in their return leg.
 Everton next game against Aston Villa is going to be a tough one for the home side, with what I saw last night in the FA CUPand if they keep their cool together I feel they can beat Aston Villa and secure all 3 point but if chances are thrown wide then the visitors Aston Villa will capitalize on Everton's mistakes.

I guess I disagree with you regarding Lukaku and the category he falls into. Since Lukaku's game isn't primarily based on pace, I think he could be a valuable striker until he has reached a higher age. His game isn't as burdensome physically in terms of pace as is the game of Mbappe for instance. If Mbappe loses speed, his game will deteriorate one day. Lukaku could still be a player that is well needed in certain periods of a game, depending on the situation and the circumstances.

But I was rather pointing out that it is time for Lukaku to settle with a club he gets along with and Roma seems to be that place. There is no point in taking another risk and ending up on the bench again. But I guess he will go wherever he is paid the most.

Lukaku is player who does not have good speed like Mbappe, Theo Walcott, Bale, and his playing style depends more on his physical strength in face to face fighting with defenders. With his body, he usually slowly responses to situations when a ball suddenly finds him and he miss those chances.

However if you put Lukaku into his favorite system and tactics, he becomes very dangerous. Like he succeeded in West Brom, Everton, Inter Milan and now AS Roma. He failed in Chelsea and Manchester United but in contrast, he succeeded at two other Premier League clubs so in my opinion, it is not true to say Premier League does not fit with him.

I see that Lukaku is more fitted to Serie A because matches there don't rely on speed too much. It covers weakness of Lukaku and he can use his physical strength to beat defenders in Serie A better than in Premier League.

The performance of Chelsea this past and present season is already giving me a lot of doubt if the fault is from the players or the coach, which is to be blamed or do we say the performance of every other clubs has improved significantly where as Chelsea is doing nothing to improve. Chelsea spending a lot of money on buying players we expect something better than this. Honestly from Pochettino stats i think he is not capable of handling the team into toping the table. So maybe looking into their coach would be a better option to help the team i feel they have enough squad to make things happen excluding Jackson.

Why is Jackson being left out? Isn't it possible that the player will want a change of manager in order to improve his performance? Even the club's coach, Pochettino, is taken aback by how difficult it is for him to manage the club. Right now, I'm not sure where Chelsea's problem lies, whether it's with the players or with the coach himself. Chelsea, on the other hand, needs to look into the matter again because Chelsea has been known to be a top club in the Premier League, always finishing in the top four, which is now a past glory for them. I have missed the good old days of Chelsea, if we have more competitive clubs including the top 6 teams in the premier league, we will have an interesting league and also a tough fight to the title of the league.

I actually cannot pinpoint the problem of Chelsea. I don't know how but whoever joins that team, just loses their form right after joining. I don't know how much they have spent to buy these new players. At first, they got Graham Potter, who could not do much with the squad. And then they got Pochettino who is a successful Premier League manager in my opinion but he can't seem to be doing anything either. I mean their players have quality but cannot show it on the ground. I think the owner's biggest mistake was to sack Tuchel who was doing very fine.

[rendravolt]

Spurs' victory the previous week against Bournemouth was an important point for them because they are now only 1 point behind their city team, namely Arsenal. With Arsenal's current situation, Spurs definitely want to force the Gunners to go down immediately and if Arsenal still suffers another defeat in the next match then Spurs can make good use of this. Arsenal is a top team that is inconsistent because in the last 5 matches they only won 1 time and most of the defeats they suffered were against teams they should have beaten.

If in the next match Spurs can steal points at Old Trafford, Manchester United's headquarters, then it is clear that they will put more pressure on Arsenal and that could raise the confidence of coach Ange's men to return to the top flight. Meanwhile, Arsenal will play Crystal Palace and to be honest, this is a match that will again make Arsenal difficult and I don't guarantee they can win easily.

Chelsea had a big difficulty even in keeping a 3-0 advantage against Luton previously. They are really in a bad condition this season but they will just do whatever they can for the rest of the season. There is a big management issues at this team but it isn't because of Pochettino for sure. Before he came the team weren't much different.

Boehly isn't good at doing his work in my opinion. This team deserve a much better owner such as Abramovich. You know how Abramovich's times were. Chelsea were in much better condition than this.

Of course, management is very important for the team to play well. We see that the team's management has an impact on most of the teams that fail or decline. It is very important for the players to be in a peaceful environment so that they can play well, and for this, everything must be in order both financially and as a team.
Chelsea are worse this year than they have been in many years. The point gap widens every week

What is the point of blaming Pochettino for Chelsea's poor results now, he has to work with those players who remained in the team, he did not receive funding, but was faced with a large outflow of players.

I don’t know what the reason was, perhaps it was Pochettino’s initiative, but in any case, I very much doubt that with this squard there is any point in counting on any satisfactory results for this team.

Chelsea have always been a team with a lot of money, and this is what has given them the opportunity to be a competitive team, and attract the best players. This time everything is happening differently, I don’t know why this is so, maybe this is some kind of experiment, or maybe Bowley doesn’t want to invest a lot of money at this stage. But without this, it will be impossible to achieve results in the Premier League.

Yes, it is clear that after firing Tuchel, Chelsea immediately experienced very bad performance. Tuchel's replacement coach did not provide a good performance so that Chelsea continued to decline, even though when Tuchel was building Chelsea, the team's condition was not as chaotic as it is now, but since the management decided to fire Tuchel, the impact is very visible now and maybe This could be said to be a kind of curse for Chelsea, I think after Chelsea spent a lot of money buying players this club was able to recover and return to winning ways but in reality the team's performance was still very bad

This problem comes from the internal team not from management imo, Todd Boehly has done its best by providing an unlimited budget to build new squad this is the same way done by Manchester City a few years ago and they managed to do it. I personally think the problem is that this coach has not been able to build a cohesiveness in the team in attack lines and defense lines, the defense is the worst because it has not been able to prepare a solid defense while the attack line is a little better it's just not consistent. One thing that can change and improve Chelsea's performance is time I mean they need more time to prepare everything to be better, maybe 1-2 more seasons. We know that Pochettino has the ability to do it, it's just that it needs a process.
You certainly remember how Chelsea brought some great players like Lukaku, Enzo Fernández and more but these players cannot contribute fully to the team while in other teams these players can be relied upon this means that something is missing in Chelsea why re these players less aggressive when playing at Chelsea.

Todd Boehly doesn't know so much about football, he is just signing players left, right and center, their transfer policy under Todd Boehly is somewhat flawed. Having said that, all the problems Chelsea has isn't the fault of the owner Todd, the players and manager are also culpable, quite a lot of these players were bought with a lot of money and their salaries are also pretty high; thus they ought to deliver more for the club than they are doing now. Chelsea are in a transition period, and the fans must understand that it will take sometime before they get back to their previous elite levels.

[KTChampions]

You can make money on Chelsea by betting on their opponents 

Chelsea surprises me in that it seems that they have had both bad and good parts of the season when it would seem they have made serious progress (compared to where they found themselves at some point), but in the standings they are always consistently somewhere deep down. In fact, they are very close to Newcastle and United, but according to subjective feelings, even the crisis United and Newcastle are much higher than Chelsea lol.

Chelsea could go ahead to win their next ten games in the Premier League, if that happens, then they will definitely be amongst the next top four clubs in the Premier League. Too many people be rating Aston Villa. Yes they're doing very well but they won't last at the top for too long. They may not likely qualify but winning one of these trophies has got to be a must achieve.

I'm happy with players like;

Dasisi in defense, Cole Palmer, Caicedo, Gallagher, Nicholas Jackson on the wing and  both Mudryk and Nkuku are doing great.
Won't be happy seeing Gallagher leaving.

Sure 
If you believe this, you can bet on Chelsea to win all these games. Taking into account the fact that the opponents will include Arsenal, Liverpool, City, Tottenham, I think it would be fair to assume that the average probability of Chelsea winning will be approximately 2. Thus, the total odds of your bet will be 2¹⁰ = 1000+
Thus, by betting just $100 you can get $100,000. This is a profitable bet, place it right now

There are not any special recruitment under new era Todd Boehly and Chelsea has underperformance with failed participating in Champion League two season in a row. He buy player over price likely Enzo Fernandez, Moisés Caicedo and some Chelsea players without experienced playing on higher level competition. Its not really good any team make transition with 100% of their squad, exactly Chelsea must regeneration their squad without let go their experienced or senior players.
Chelsea potential without participants in Champion League next season and become dark era under Todd Boehly than Abramovich era with Chelsea success won Champion League, Europe League and Premier League trophies.

We cannot deny that after changing club ownership we see that Chelsea has not improved to date. Maybe because after changing ownership there was also a change in staff within the club. So things are even more different now. Pochettino cannot be blamed because the club's condition has been bad since before he arrived. He is now just trying to improve this club. And it looks like he needs more than one season before he can really make a difference at this club.

What I hope from Chelsea's new owner, Todd Boehly, is that he must be more patient this time. He must give more time to the current Chelsea coach. Re-firing the coach will only prevent Chelsea from developing optimally. And I think Todd Boehly is starting to understand this. Because currently there is no news that I have read about Todd Boehly who will fire Pochettino. Or maybe it's because I missed it. But I believe Chelsea will improve, even if it is slowly.

When a club is run by people who don't have basic knowledge of the world of football, then don't be surprised by messy management. The reason is that Todd Boehly assumes that managing a big club focuses on profits from sponsors, but on the other hand, the condition of the club, players, team management and even the coach looks in disarray. A wasted budget and Todd Boehly still thinks his decision was the right one? Chelsea ideal period has faded since it left Abramovich hands. Until now, it has been proven that in Boehly hands, we feel like we are watching the peak of a comedy.

It is hoped that Pochettino will be able to fix all the problems that have never been resolved by previous coaches, Pochettino's presence has also not been able to make Chelsea compete again in the top four. Conceding two goals before 10 minutes of the match ended gave a sign that Chelsea's defense was very fragile, the defenders were unable to close down attacks from Luton players which made the match end 2-3.

The club owner does not really influence the team's performance, Chelsea really needs talent scouts who can explore the potential of players to improve the team's performance. The Abramovich era has become a beautiful history for Chelsea, they need to rebuild their strength to repeat the success achieved during the Abramovich era.

[QueenVera]

Since pochettino got a lot of money as his salary and he was responsible for a lot of bad and good things that happened in the club. Chelsea owned needs to regularly did evaluation to the performance from the club. I did know he has a lot of money but chelsea's owner lack of  knowledge about football. That being said that if chelsea was not willing to fix the problems than the owner shall have replaced pochettino with the new coach. Chelsea has mad a few improvements since last season but this was not as big as people said.
There were many problems occured to the chelsea and pochettino seems difficult to sort all of these problems out from the club. Im so happy to see that how some players were starting to show their progress.

Chelsea is spending a lot of money to get so many useless players. Todd was implementing the new rule for chelsea to make its balance sheet to be balanced. Poch needs to welcome with so many criticisms that was coming for chelsea.
Chelsea can be better as long as it will be fully open to the all the fan's criticism. The main problem in chelsea was on its defensive line. The attacking line seems a bit better since mudryk and nkuku have been making a lot of improvements.
The defensive line was very weak coz there was not good defender who can duel in the air. Chelsea was always conceding its goal through crossing which is bad. The club needs to solve it asap.

The way Chelsea owners spree up cash on this team is a big sign of their lack of football knowledge. Like why spend much when you’re trying to rebuild. Okay, let’s accept their erroneous spendings and follow the saying, to whom much is given, much is highly expected. Like there should be a proper evaluation for this team and whoever isn’t performing should be queried because we can’t continue spending such way.

 Yes, Pochettino needs to take note of the criticisms and build this team especially the defense line that keeps conceding cheap goals and yes the attack too needs a fine sharp person heading upfront. If criticisms are being accepted and worked on then I think we’ll see an improved Chelsea soon, they've got fine and quality young players, bringing out the best in them should be pochettino's priority currently, however I think they need to get a quality striker in this current window.

Meanwhile, Arsenal will play Crystal Palace and to be honest, this is a match that will again make Arsenal difficult and I don't guarantee they can win easily.

There are at least 5 teams that have a very tight point difference in the standings, one of which is Tottenham who are ranked 5th, yes they have the opportunity to shift Arsenal who are in 4th position.
Looking at the meeting between Manchester United vs Tottenham, looking at the statistics of these two teams Tottenham has much better statistics than Manchester United. from the last 5 matches of each team, Manchester United only got 1 win, while Tottenham got 4 wins. This match will be played at Manchester United headquarters, but we can see Manchester United's record despite playing at home.

Boehly isn't good at doing his work in my opinion. This team deserve a much better owner such as Abramovich. You know how Abramovich's times were. Chelsea were in much better condition than this.

Chelsea are in a transition period, and the fans must understand that it will take sometime before they get back to their previous elite levels.

They move without careful planning, so it looks like a flaw. For example, in player recruitment, they spend a lot of money to buy players, but most of the players they bring in do not have a significant impact on the game, so it is fair to say that some of their purchases are failed purchases. Not only in bringing in players, but in appointing coaches they do the same thing, they seem to be in a hurry to determine who will be the coach.
This is a shared responsibility, we cannot say one person is guilty in Chelsea's failure, because in fact they also take part in deciding something.

After Tottenham's win against Bournemouth, I will say that Tottenham is fully back to their winning ways. Tottenham ended Bournemouth's 7-match unbeaten run in the league, and Tottenham has won 3 of their home matches. If Tottenham can continue in this form, they will enter the 4th position in the premier league table because Arsenal and Aston Villa might drop points in their next 2 games.

Not sure Spurs have survived this defeat crisis... We will have to see how they can play with the top clubs... Now Spurs are in the Europa League zone and have a small gap with West Ham... It is very important for Spurs to continue gaining points, but I think that their game is still not stable...

[Leviathan.007]

Most people find it difficult to bet on Chelsea to win or draw because of Chelsea's poor performance this season. But Chelsea has started to gain a little consistency of late, Chelsea has won 2 of the last matches in the premier league.

At the beginning of this season, Chelsea spent quite a lot of money to bring in players, but unfortunately the big money has not been able to guarantee the quality of play of a team, including Chelsea at this time, some of the minor results have obtained show how fragile their defense is and also how blunt their attack line is at the moment again, the game tactics used by Pochettino seem to be too easy to read and anticipate by the opposing team at this time, it cannot be said that Chelsea already returned to a positive path even though they managed to get 3 points in two matches, because if we look at those two matches, it was actually Chelsea who are having trouble dealing with Crystal Palace and Luton.

Chelsea manager have more work to do to improve the players, but for Chelsea to achieve anything in this tournament, I don't think it will be possible for Chelsea because there are many teams that have prove their seriousness in this season to be among the top teams in the premier league table. I think, Chelsea spend more money in signing Players in the summer than any other teams, just to dominate well in this season but the results they got so far is not giving their managements joy. Despite Chelsea draw match with Manchester city, Liverpool and they defeated Tottenham Hotspur with many goals but their position is still very low in the competition table and their coach need to work on their defenders and midfielders to have a better chance to achieve something from their remaining matches.

Since pochettino got a lot of money as his salary and he was responsible for a lot of bad and good things that happened in the club.

The pockets of Cheslea are loaded with a huge amount of money and they have enough money to even buy more players during January but the fact about Chslea is even money couldn't help this team.
Pochettino, the coach of Chelsea fully rebuilt the team and he spent lots of money on this team but it was not helpful so far, while he had everything he needed to have in Chelsea like good players and coaches and he even had enough time during this season but this couldn't help the team and I think maybe the place of Pochettino in Chelsea is even in danger after all the money they spent.
