Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[bitvalak]

Today there is very shocking news, especially for Liverpool fans. This has been confirmed directly by those involved, namely Jurgen Kloop, who will leave Liverpool at the end of the season. Even though I'm not a Liverpool fan, this really touched my feelings and seeing Jurgen Kloop's struggle to win all the titles for Liverpool made me so moved. He has become a legend for Liverpool and his services will never be forgotten. I feel like time is passing so fast and with this the Jurgen Kloop era will end in a few months.

His rivalry with Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola is very classic and Pep Guardiola will definitely miss his figure in the EPL. However, Jurgen Kloop still has the responsibility to bring Liverpool to win the EPL title this season and of course it would be a very extraordinary thing if Jurgen Kloop could give Liverpool a second EPL title during his tenure as coach.

It's shocking news that Jurgen Klopp has to resign at the end of the season, where Liverpool are on fire, but memories will be beautiful if this season Klopp wins the Premier League trophy as a farewell to the club.

I don't know enough stories about Klopp's reasons for leaving Liverpool maybe he wants to take a break or something? But I want to know the reason behind it because it is certain that on X.com it will be trending this news, but however little I hear this news especially I like Liverpool who are coached by Klopp.

Klopp's reasons for stepping down from Liverpool's coaching chair at the end of this season raise many questions. According to my strongest suspicion, it is because he is dissatisfied with the transfer of players that he really wants but cannot make it happen because there may be opposition from Liverpool management. Because so far we know that the players Klopp bought, especially the midfielder, are alternatives to his main desires, such as Bellingham, Valverde and others. This is what made it a little difficult for him to satisfy his desire to have a Dream Team for Liverpool. For Klopp, perhaps his goal is not only to make Liverpool big in the EPL, but he also wants to be at the same level as Real Madrid and Man City, who could become kings of Europe with all the convenience of getting their favorite players.

A few days ago Erling Haaland was seen returning to training with Manchester City and with this the teams in the EPL will not be doing well. The reason is that after Kevin De Bruyne returned after suffering a very long injury and not long ago, Erling Haaland also followed with news of his recovery from his injury. There is no doubt about the duet between these two players and since last season these two players have recorded impressive results in terms of assists and a lot of goals.

Can't wait to see Kevin De Bruyne who will provide assists to Erling Haaland as usual and with this Manchester City will no longer have difficulty getting a win. Manchester City's next opponent is Spurs and this will be the next proving ground for these two players to give Manchester City a definite victory. Anyway, the match against Spurs is in the FA Cup competition and this will determine Manchester City's fate in the quarter finals if they win and qualify.

I am only being scared because Haaland is coming back. The reason I said that is because Kelvin DE Bruyne is back, and we know that his absence is the reason Haaland didn't score more goals like last season. Now that Bruyne is back, Haaland will be strong and able to score goals like before, and if that works for Haaland, Manchester City can win the league title this season again because Liverpool is only two points ahead of them.

News from Manchester United is about this player, McTominay. Manchester United is trying to sign a new contract with their player because the contract of McTominay is about to end and while McTominay was mostly not in the first squad but he had good performances whenever Ten Hag used this player. So far in 18 games in the premier league he scored 5 goals while he wasn't the first squad in 12 games and this player is already liked by the team like West Ham but Manchester United wants to keep their player for a longer time.

This McTominay guy is the only intelligent player I really like at Manchester United. He is very intelligent and always goes above and beyond what some striker players can't do. It's good that the team wants to extend his contract because if he leaves, they will really miss him because he is very good and leads the team in goals. If he leaves and joins another team, I think he will improve even further because I think he has a bright future.

[Jegileman]

Today I saw this sad news:

That was very sad news. I won't be able to get Klopp out of my mind when I think of Liverpool. People will continue to remember Klopp as one of the greatest coaches Liverpool has had. Liverpool's current golden generation was all built by Klopp over these nine years. It was a very long time and there were many beautiful memories and moments created with Klopp. I just hope Klopp has a legacy for Liverpool. And I love the football that Klopp has implemented into Liverpool's game which makes them one of the most exciting teams to watch.

For everything that has a beginning must always have an end to it, although some end come too soon when you’ll least expect it to happen. Jurgen Klopp was a great coach during his stay in the club and I must say he did excellently well to keep the club high as long as the European football is concerned. He will be missed and his memories will always be remembered in the club. I don’t really know his core reasons for leaving the club even when the club still needs him and not getting enough of him yet that will make him leave. His decisions should be respected and should be commemorated for all he has done for the team. Now the search for a new coach should begin for Liverpool, I just hope they get a good replacement for him soon and a coach that will keep the name of the team flying high for seasons to come again.

This McTominay guy is the only intelligent player I really like at Manchester United. He is very intelligent and always goes above and beyond what some striker players can't do. It's good that the team wants to extend his contract because if he leaves, they will really miss him because he is very good and leads the team in goals. If he leaves and joins another team, I think he will improve even further because I think he has a bright future.

I also think high of him as a very good player and the team can always count of him at anytime. Besides, he is still a young player that still has many years to play in his career. With the talent he is exhibiting now, letting him go will be a wrong decision for Manchester United to make. He will improve under Manchester United under a good coach and more playing time in the pitch. I see him as a versatile player that knows when and how to switch positions or not when playing.

[baeva]

I don't think that comparison is right because so far Liverpool only have a chance and I can't say it's a big one. In the standings, everyone knows that there is a very serious fight going on and one mistake by Liverpool could wipe out their chances for the championship. It's even tougher in the Europa League.

If we look at the remaining matches in the Premier League this season, of course there are many match remaining so liverpool must be able to perform consistently to be able to lock up the EPL trophy. Even though Liverpool is in the leading area to win the EPL trophy, But Manchester city and Arsenal will definitely put strong pressure on liverpool this season. For this reason, Liverpool must focus on their goal in the carabao Cup final match where they must be able to maintain the quality of their neat game to become champions.

It is true that Liverpool has have 3 hopes of winning trophies this season, But it is still uncertain whether they will be able to do it perfectly. In the European league they still have a long way to go to reach the final and in the Premier League it is also the same because there are still many matches left. But yes, in the final match of the carabao Cup, Liverpool are more the favorites to win the Carabao Cup trophy because they are stronger than chelsea.

I don't think it's right to focus your attention and direct your energies towards one cup. If they lose(which I doubt), they probably won't be upset because they still have a chance to win the EPL. As for Chelsea obviously they are an average club for Liverpool, who they have faced many times before and are capable of winning them. The thing is that teams from lower divisions who sometimes make a fairy tale and reach close to the final rounds (which is actually rare) don't face teams from higher leagues and it's hard for them to analyse their opponents, but Chelsea's case doesn't fit into that

[ShowOff]

FA Cup match

There are 4 matches currently underway, but two of them are particularly interesting. The Chelsea vs Aston Villa and Tottenham vs Manchester City matches are the two matches I mean, and these are really interesting to watch.

There have been no goals in these two matches even though Manchester City took a 1-goal lead from Oscar Bobb before the referee disallowed the goal for offside. Manchester City really dominated this match and they built a good attack, but unfortunately no goals were scored for almost half the first half. Pep Guardiola chose to reserve Jeremy Doko and De Bruyne for this match, but if his plans don't go well then both of them might get minutes.

[Unsoldier]

Klopp quits Liverpool at a time when Salah is injured. This is very strange as Mo Salah is a key player for Liverpool. And I suspect he has a very serious injury and will take a very long time to recover. Perhaps Klopp is leaving because of this and he realizes that without Salah, Liverpool cannot win the EPL.

[cengsuwuei]

Klopp says that Liverpool needs a coach of the highest level, and he is not that young anymore and cannot be that way. It’s very weird to hear this from him, in my opinion, age can only add experience and skill to a coach, maybe he’s just tired and wants to rest. He also mentioned that giving six press conferences a week is incredibly difficult and he dreams of a day when he won’t do it, that is, it all comes down to the fact that he is tired and wants to rest.
He also said that he would not coach any team or national team next year, just rest, and also said that he would never coach another English club, so he would definitely not return to the Premier League.

Perhaps Liverpool want to take the same or similar decision as Arsenal did when they were tired with Arsene Wenger, the fans were tired of his management style and pattern which was why they called for his resignation in the year 2018; for Jurgen Klopp to make this statement, the manageent probably need another manager with fresh mind to take the team to the next level, and that can be the reson why they will not wants to renew Klopp's contract as there will be other managers they will be eying outside the Premier League which can be either Alonso, or any other manager out there.

If Liverpool change manager next season, it might affect their performance next season because the new manager they will sign will come with hisown pattern of football which may take some of the players time to adapt, as a result, it will affect their performance before the manager and the players get to know each other's tactics. Alonso, and De zarbi will be the best option for Liverpool, but their chance of having any of them is limited.

It's true that for now the best replacement for Jurgen Klop is the former Liverpool player, Xabi Alonso.
Xabi Alonson's achievements with Bayer Leverkusen this season are extraordinary. able to beat Bayern Munich's dominance in the German league. although the season has not ended but the dominance of the table leaders has been extraordinary. and Leverkusen this season is very difficult to beat.

[Majestic-milf]

I think Liverpool might have a similar problem because they would hardly get a quality manager as good as Jurgen Klopp in Europe.

I won't say they'd hardly get a quality manager because he's leaving Liverpool would be the end of the club and also, when Rafa Benitez coached the club and wanted to leave the same thing was said, but look at them. No matter how bad these teams perform without their managers, they hardly hit relegation waters so I feel they will survive without Jurgen, it's just that the management will be expecting much from the new coach that will be his replacement, expecting him to meet up or keep up the standard of Klopp.

[letteredhub]

Why is Pochettino not starting Broja in this game against Aston villa tonight, in the absence of Nicolas Jackson it was supposed to be an opportunity to consistently make Broja have a  playing time as to boost his confidence on pitch as a striker but what am seeing is a conversion of sterling into the striker position in tonight's game. What is Pochi up to tonight, Chelsea need goals to win this game and a true striker is what is needed to put fear in Villa's goal yard box and at least with palmer the pressure will be well felt.

And I suspect he has a very serious injury and will take a very long time to recover. Perhaps Klopp is leaving because of this and he realizes that without Salah, Liverpool cannot win the EPL.

If you look at Klopp statement published on the club official website, Klopp has conveyed his desire to resign to club officials since November 2023, with the aim of giving Liverpool management time to make preparations. This means that Klopp resigned before Salah went to AFCON, and before Salah suffered an injury there, but what is certain is that Klopp will officially leave when this season ends.

A surprise for all of us with this announcement, no one expected Klopp to choose to leave after managing the Reds for more than eight and a half years. There is speculation that Klopp and management vision and mission are no longer in the same direction, but I think this also sounds reasonable. It is possible that Klopp will receive offers from other clubs, but I am sure he will not coach an EPL club directly after leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.

He also said that he would not coach any team or national team next year, just rest, and also said that he would never coach another English club, so he would definitely not return to the Premier League.

Talking about this coach, I really give high appreciation and respect for his work ethic. If it weren't for Klopp, Liverpool wouldn't have gone this far if led by another coach. pf most of the coaches of Europe's top teams, especially the Premier League, Klopp is one of the coaches who doesn't make many demands regarding the future players he needs. that's why the Loverpool owner is very reluctant to let go of this German coach. when Liverpool experienced ups and downs, especially last season. he rarely complains and demands that the club send away the players he really needs.

However, I remembered what he said in his interview session last season. Klopp said, if Liverpool does not follow developments like other teams, especially clubs owned by the Middle East, then don't expect Liverpool to be able to compete at the highest level, especially in the Premier League. If I'm wrong, please correct my words. Honestly, I'm surprised by what you said in this thread. so, I tried to read it from Fabrizio Romano's report. but if that's the case, it could be that Klopp is telling it like it is. or, he has many complaints with the club management which is quite famous for being stingy in bringing in players. in particular, who is a necessity in his team's squad.

I don't imagine that at this time, if Klopp leaves it will be a loss for Liverpool. apart from the team having to rebuild its performance from the start, perhaps the coach who replaces him will make many demands on the club, such as bringing in targeted players that the new coach needs. It would be a shame if Klopp's struggles so far, especially this season, had to stop. is it possible that something internally happened at Liverpool, because as far as we know Klopp always protects the boss who owns the club with his statements. It would be a shame if something like that happened.

Today I saw this sad news:

Jürgen Klopp has announced his decision to step down as #LFC manager at the end of the season, having informed the club’s ownership of his wish to leave his position in the summer.

It's a decision that will greatly affect Liverpool next season, that is if Liverpool doesn't hire another good coach, but I honestly think it will be very difficult for Liverpool next season. Even if Liverpool hired another good coach, the issue is that on the market it is difficult to find a good coach like Jürgen Klopp who could have a long-term contract, something like 5 years without being fired before 5 years. Many current coaches have done very badly with their teams and completely destroyed their teams, causing teams to start changing coaches constantly. I'm wondering which coach the Livepool management will hire, I see Mourinho as being a good coach who is free, he is a coach who knows the premier league very well

In my opinion, Mourinho would be ideal to become Liverpool's next coach. I heard some rumor (I don't know if it has already been confirmed or not) that in June this year Milan, Napoli, Inter will have other coaches. If this is true, I hope that no coach who leaves these 3 teams becomes Livepool's next coach, because even though I like Inter's coach, who in my opinion is better than the current coach of Napoli and Milan, I still don't see It is a good option for Liverpool to hire a coach from Inter, Milan or Napoli. It would be very difficult to find a good coach. I hope lliverpool can hire a good coach.

Liverpool's next games will be very difficult games:

31st of this month:

liverpool - chelsea

liverpool will play at home, chelsea is slowly improving and will make this game much more difficult for liverpool who cannot lose points if they want to become champions.

February 4th:

Arsenal - Liverpool

it will be another very difficult game for livepool, in my opinion liverpool in this game needs to come out with a draw at least, if liverpool in these next two games manages to win and draw then they will be well on their way to becoming champions. But if Liverpool lose in these 2 games, then I think they could say goodbye to the title. because the city goes to fight first, then you won't come out on top until you are champions

For the last 5 to 6 years Jürgen klopp has been one of the brilliant coaches we've had in the English premier League, his move from Borussia Dortmund to Liverpool, was a move a lot of people didn't know that it was a dawn of a New era for Liverpool, from winning the champions League to being top competitors in the premier League and other leagues, jurgen klopp has built a solid squad with Liverpool over the years, it will be very difficult to fill the vacuum that will be created when he finally lives at the end of the season, because I know before he came Liverpool had a difficult time in finding a suitable coach that could create legacy for them, however Rafael benitez was one man that gave Liverpool some memorable moments that i will not forget in a hurry.

 Though I understand that for the past 2 to 3 years Liverpool have been having some level of difficulty and struggles in some competitions, but I believe that is a normal thing for every club, because most times there are ups and downs sometimes, so I believe for the present condition Liverpool has been facing is one of the major reasons that have resulted to this situation that has warranted for Jürgen klopp exit at the end of the season.

Dude, Klopp still manages Liverpool until the end of the season. He doesn't leave now!!
It is not really surprising that he leaves Liverpool at the end of the season because his contract will be over. However, it is quite interesting that Liverpool management doesn't try to extend his contract. Or Klopp has no intention to extend his contract with Liverpool. I can understand that he probably wants to get a new challenge, he already managed Liverpool since Oct 8, 2015. He may be aware that he is already a long time with Liverpool. Now, he wants to get something different with a new club.

NO, it is not all about the injury of Mo Salah. Klopp is a smart and experienced coach, he doesn't rely on a single player only to win the match. Even if Mo Salah will get injury for a long time, I no doubt that Klopp still can win the EPL title with Liverpool.

Well chelsea has dominated the first half of the game with possession i think chelsea performance is quite impressing this first half,it would have been 1:0 in the first half of the game but co palmer missed the chance.

Matinez is doing absolutely well,if not for him I don't know what would have become of Aston Villa tonight,I think he deserved the man of the match,well it was also a huge opportunity for Aston Villa but tielemans missed it.
 let's see what will happen in the second half of the game

[el kaka22]

Why does he want to leave though? I mean the team is just about to get back to good again, is there like some other offer that is better for him? Or maybe it is the high amount of time that he has to spend away from his home, which really does hurt a lot of people in this job. Many people want to live a life that would be a bit more calm after a while. Klopp probably has his reasons, and I am sure that we are going to end up with something that would be a lot more reasonable when the time comes.

I think he will officially say why, but maybe he won't, we still have no idea why Zidane is not managing after getting three ucl in a row. All in all I think it is quite clear that we are going to be upset to see him go, no matter which teams fan you are.

There are 4 matches currently underway, but two of them are particularly interesting. The Chelsea vs Aston Villa and Tottenham vs Manchester City matches are the two matches I mean, and these are really interesting to watch.

There have been no goals in these two matches even though Manchester City took a 1-goal lead from Oscar Bobb before the referee disallowed the goal for offside. Manchester City really dominated this match and they built a good attack, but unfortunately no goals were scored for almost half the first half. Pep Guardiola chose to reserve Jeremy Doko and De Bruyne for this match, but if his plans don't go well then both of them might get minutes.

Yeah those 2 matches seem like the matches for the weekend. They’re both by top clubs in the league and they’ve been even competition in both matches. Chelsea have a home advantage but they're playing against a very tough EPL team. However City are in a more tougher situation cause they're facing Tottenham away from home and that's why the game hasn't been easy for both side, and it's still barren draw.

 Both matches had disallowed goals and also had their missed chances. From the stat you can see that these 4 teams are all eager on qualifiying for the next round.Manchester City are better off but in this match, Tottenham are very composed defensively while Chelsea have had lots of chances but Vertern Martine who’s at goal post is always there to rescue Vill. Well let’s see how the match ends.

[Furious 7]

This is a big match

I agree; Liverpool vs Arsenal is a big game in English football and as we all know; in the big ties form or squad quality do not matter because it’s literally a tie with spoilers and surprises

With the title charge, I think Liverpool willl win this time around and dominate arsenal too
What do you think ?

h2h in the last 4 matches if you look at the matches they played actually balanced in my opinion because 1 win for Arsenal, 1 win for Liverpool and 2 draws are a sign that these two clubs are still a difficult situation to predict how the matches they will do later.

At the moment Arsenal's advantage of course lies in their home matches and Liverpool will still be missing Endo and Salah in the match which makes them still lose some of their attacks.

I think in this match the possibility of a draw is still very much felt but there could indeed be a surprise where all situations can always happen in 90 minutes later.

[Miles2006]

Why does he want to leave though? I mean the team is just about to get back to good again, is there like some other offer that is better for him? Or maybe it is the high amount of time that he has to spend away from his home, which really does hurt a lot of people in this job. Many people want to live a life that would be a bit more calm after a while. Klopp probably has his reasons, and I am sure that we are going to end up with something that would be a lot more reasonable when the time comes.

Does this mean Klopp has no reasonable speech to speak why he's leaving the team cause have checked everywhere including here thinking I will see the reason but no, this news has left Liverpool fans in shock and he should give reason why he wants to leave the team, now when everything is going as plan for the team, I believe Liverpool will definitely take a title in the season cause they're dominating in the premier league, Carabao Cup and with their performance each match day you'll know the team is progressing, with all this I'm surprised seeing klopp making this announcement, although he can't stay forever but he still can't leave now when the team needs him. Any reason he has to give should be sensible.

[Weawant]

I think Liverpool might have a similar problem because they would hardly get a quality manager as good as Jurgen Klopp in Europe.

I won't say they'd hardly get a quality manager because he's leaving Liverpool would be the end of the club and also, when Rafa Benitez coached the club and wanted to leave the same thing was said, but look at them. No matter how bad these teams perform without their managers, they hardly hit relegation waters so I feel they will survive without Jurgen, it's just that the management will be expecting much from the new coach that will be his replacement, expecting him to meet up or keep up the standard of Klopp.

It's normal for a coach or a player to leave a team at a time, it could be due to retirement or transfer for the players and maybe sack or retirement or even moving to another team for coach so either ways a coach or player will definitely leave a team some day and is not going to stay there forever no matter how good such players or coach are.

After the exit of certain players or coach, it's normal for some teams to have some challenges with their performance and form but it doesn't mean the team won't bounce back later or won't be able to survive the absence of such persons, it will only take time and before you know it they are back on their feet and such is the case of Liverpool the exit of klop and Salah isn't a death sentence on the team but they may only suffer some set back for awhile after which they will be fine.

Chelsea vs. Aston Villa ending with zero goals couldn't have been more boring than that...

That game was pretty bad and now I think Chelsea had a big chance to decide this matchup at home. I don't think they have a good chance to win it away from home in the repetition game as Aston Villa is much stronger at home than they are away from home.

Chelsea was the more active team but they still lack some important elements in their offensive game and that is why every time they can't create a lot of good attempts for themselves.

I just wondered what is actually going on with Nkunku?
