Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[TastyChillySauce00]

I'm not defending Pochettino, but look at Chelsea recent performance, they have improved and managed to reach 7th place in the standings, but the improvement in the remainder of this season is not really expected by Chelsea fans because it is too futile to try to get the best place.
I'm a little surprised why Chelsea can perform so well towards the end of the season, whereas at the start of the season their performance was very unstable and they almost gave up hope that they would experience a bad season in the next few years.
after seeing this change, Chelsea believes that Chelsea can still improve in the coming season if they can retain Pochettino, although there are no guarantees, but at the end of this season it looks convincing and it seems Pochettino already knows what he has to do.

currently looking for the best manager is not the best way because Chelsea has started to show positive changes and there is no harm in maintaining the existing ones and just trying to change some unproductive players to strengthen every line that needs to be improved.

Three matches left in Premier League and see how possibilities standings position finish in this season for Chelsea after success moving up from 10th to 7th standings awhile. Currently Chelsea has chance break out to 5th standings position depend their consistency performance or not in three matches left against Nottingham Forest, Brighton Albion and Bournemouth.
Pochettino improved well with team performance currently and I think bad viewed from fans currently will defend him keep becoming Chelsea manager for next season, I think if can reach UEFA Champion League spot place in this season will make good performance as first season become Chelsea manager and make many rotation with players composition.

Chelsea's chances of finishing fifth are extremely low at this moment consider you shall also count the upcoming fixtures owned by totenham and newcastle. Then you ou know what? Look at the current standing. Chelsea is ranked seventh, but its maximum score is 63 points. It means that Tottenham can secure a place in the Europa League if the club wins two more matches without even losing in these matches, i know that it has three unplayed match but it sounds impossible for the lily white win against city.
I'm not counting the match against City because Tottenham may struggle to beat them. It may even lose to Manchester City soon consider totenham in the poor state. Chelsea's chances of qualifying for the Europa League will be determined by the results of Newcastle and Tottenham but people are talking it like chelsea can easily achieve it.
Yet again, what about Newcastle? It will also feature EZ fixtures to come soon. I expect Newcastle to win all of their remaining games. Newcastle still has a match against Manchester United, but we all know how bad MU is right now.

[mamesso]

On a paper, it wont be difficult for Chelsea to win all the 3 remaining matches because the 3 remaining opponents can be considered as easy team to beat compared to the 2 teams they have beaten previously (West Ham and Spurs). Mathematically they still have the chance to finish in the 5th position but they also need to rely on other results. In my opinion, there will be no significant changes on the standing at the of the season so I guess Chelsea will stay in where they are now.

Chelsea still has a chance to finish in fifth place provided they have to win their last three matches and hope that Newcastle and Tottenham drop points in the next three matches. The chances they have are very slim because they really depend on the results obtained by Tottenham or Newcastle. Tottenham certainly doesn't want fifth position to be taken by rivals who are below them. Consecutive defeats in the last four matches are a nightmare for Tottenham because their position is increasingly threatened. Next match they will face Burnley, they will try to end their losing streak in the last four matches to keep their position safe.

Is funny to see Chelsea lose against smaller team which to them are bigger teams and win some of their game against the bigger teams and they show so much energy in those game like the game against Tottenham and West Ham even Manchester City, by now they would have been struggling to keep their spot in the top 4, for now is not happening.
The Blues need someone to always keep them on track and not Pochettino, to me I'd say let him have another go with the club but if along the line there's no change I guess he had to hit the exit door immediately.

If Pochettino leaves then Chelsea will be worse, that's in my opinion because we saw last season when Chelsea made several coaching changes but none of them were successful.
Pochettino is a coach who has good qualities and this season we can see that there is slowly increasing quality for Chelsea even though at the moment they are far behind, but the positive thing is that there is development in this team so it is possible that next season they can do even better.
I hope Pochettino is retained by Chelsea, and I am sure now that Pochettino is able to make Chelsea even better, everything requires a process and Pochettino is doing that.

Chelsea are currently considering Pochettino future at Stamford Bridge, I think it is very natural Chelsea do because indeed this season Chelsea performance has been inconsistent, lucky for Pochettino in the last game they can win and make them now able to compete in the Europa League zone after Manchester United also suffered a defeat to Crystal Palace,  If you look at Chelsea's game this season of course you know why the fans are getting fed up with Pochettino, Chelsea game this season is quite bad and we can even see they just make passes backwards and sideways without any meaningful goals and not make the opponent depressed.

But in the last two games we can see they play more attractive by having a fast tempo to dismantle the opponent defense and the players are starting to dare to have possession so that the opponent is a little frustrated in chasing the ball, besides that in the last two games we can see Chelsea game scheme is more arranged so that it can threaten the opponent defense at any time,  We can say that Pochettino has had a bit of time at Chelsea but I think he has wasted that time only on failed experiments at Chelsea so far, so he might be worthy enough to be sacked.

No, there is no way Chelsea will be able to close the gap of 6 points with three matches remaining, they are lucky that Manchester United are doing even worse and they have dropped below them, they would have to focus on not slip back lower. And Newcastle also began to play much better at the end of the season, so Chelsea won’t be able to bypass them either. And Tottenham still has a difficult match with City where they will most likely lose points, so they are able to retain 5th place.

I don't think Pochettino's stay at Chelsea has been something to say the club have improved because if you say he should stay I think this guy will only handle Chelsea like he did with Tottenham without any trophy and you'd agree with me that the fans and equally the board don't have that time to wait, we know how desperate they are especially the fans.
I'll say let him stay from now till December and if there's no improvement not this trust the project stuff he's always saying, if nothing positive comes out I think he should be sacked. I mean take a look at his body language, so poor in making decisions that can change the outcome of a game, is not suppose to be coming from a manager that wants to make a change for himself and the club.

People can change, from players to coaches, and Pochettino with his talent can change and upgrade himself, and win trophies. If coaches like Ranieri, Spaletti can win trophies after many years and seasons as a runner up, without league trophy, don't feel so pessimistic with Pochettino.

He is a good head coach and I believe if he manages a big club, is given good budget for player transfers, chances to build up a squad he wants, and has enough time and patience from the club, he will succeed, sooner or later, matter of time only.

I knew that Pochettino did not win big trophies so far in his coach career but I don't underestimate his capability as a head coach.

[Majestic-milf]

 Chelsea can rest easy now they are above Man UTD because I don't see the Red devils overthrowing them anytime soon because doing that will mean they will win Arsenal and Chelsea will lose their match which I feel is a high impossibility.
Riding on the high of defeating Tottenham and West Ham, they will want to do more damage to Nottingham forest when they travel to City ground on Saturday but knowing how they can come from performing excellently one game or two to bottling the next, I'm expecting surprises. I also doubt the board at Chelsea will keep Pochettino even if he manages to win the three games but wasn't able to hit their target; which is to play in the Europa league, since qualifying for the Europa conference league will be a disappointing one for fans and a step down from what they are used to making which is champions league.

We have first season of Pochettino here at with Chelsea and there is no doubt things are still not stable, but he has done good job with currently they are at the seventh spot and have good chance of jumping at the sixth spot which could be satisfying result for him and Chelsea fans which were not good in last few seasons and having terrible time, but one thing is surely Pochettino is having no ability to win trophies which is also important but as he brought some consistency is good for the team if we have one more season then surely we will have this team into good spot which is also important for them.

Next season is going to be important with many teams are having good improvement and few are struggling which is surely a concern but as things are going we can expect next season could be more competitive, and we will have good changes at the top which could be interesting.

When Chelsea had a lot of bad results previously, many people criticized Pochettino. But now it seems that Pochettino has succeeded in improving Chelsea's performance quite well. And I'm sure the criticism of Pochettino has also decreased now. And maybe Pochettino will stay at Chelsea longer with Chelsea's situation improving. But I think everything will depend on Chelsea's performance in all the remaining games this season. Because if Chelsea manages to maintain their good performance and win all the remaining matches then I'm sure Pochettino will also start to get appreciation from everyone. And maybe Chelsea could indeed have the potential to end the season with a better ranking than last season.

The top five positions are still being fiercely contested by four teams who still have the opportunity to get that position. Because the four teams I mean still have three matches at the end of this season, they are Tottenham, Newcastle, Chelsea and Manchester United. If Tottenham still wants to maintain their top five position until the end of the season, of course Tottenham must be able to win at least the next two matches at the end of this season. Because the other three teams have to win the three remaining matches for them and hope that Tottenham will not win again in the remaining matches.

For me i would say pochettino has really try very well in his own little way, it has really been a hectic season for chelsea this season and the last one, but somehow pochettino has managed to place them in the 5th position. That's really progress for me. Pochettino leaving the club now wouldn't be adviceable, because i see great potential and efforts in him this coming season. He should also use good of the transfer window.

[bitgolden]

I am not sure if I agree. I am not saying that Pochettino is some magic great amazing manager or something, but looking at how Chelsea is doing right now, Pochettino seems like more than enough for them. They need to realize that they are overspending on players they do not need, getting two wingers for the position and spending over hundred million doesn't make sense for example. They need a better "management", the owner and the office is doing a bad job with these transfers.

But, I am sure that the team will eventually get better with time, and Pochettino can make that happen, they just need to be more "calm" during the transfer window, do not rush to make the team worth a lot, try to just calm down and if Pochettino asks for any specific player, just get him, otherwise don't try to overdo it.

Pochettino also gained the trust of Todd Boehly to continue providing opportunities next season. So Chelsea has started to rediscover what was lost, its players have also shown solid cooperation. I think Chelsea fans must remain patient with the club's regeneration process. After carrying out changes last season, it really takes patience to find the identity of the players. But I'm sure Chelsea fans have accepted whatever results their team will get this season. Even though they have to finish in 7th place in the standings, they will feel happy. There are several opportunities left because they can still fight for 6th place in the standings. Newcastle has a tough match because they have to face Brighton, Manchester United and also Brentford, meaning Chelsea's opportunities are very open if they target 6 at the end of the season.

Yes, it has been almost 10 seasons since Manchester United was unable to win the Premier League title. The reason is, the last time Manchester United won the Premier League was in the 2012-2013 season. After that season, Manchester United never again won the Premier League, and in its best performance, Manchester United was only able to become runner up, in the 2017-2018/2020-2021 season. Then this season Manchester United's performance also be bad again, and they have the opportunity to finish in the middle of the Premier League standings. So if you think deeper, it was only during Sir Alex's time that Manchester United triumphed so well. At that time, Manchester United was really feared by all teams in the Premier League and the world.
Maybe at that time the only team that was able to provide a little resistance to Manchester United in the Premier League was Manchester City.

Apart from that, Manchester United's defeat to Crystal Palace is clear evidence that Manchester United is indeed weak at the moment. Maybe if Manchester United's performance wants to improve again, in my opinion Manchester United management must be right in choosing players and coaches. In essence, Manchester United's special team tasked with analyzing the talent of players who will be recruited/contracted must be even better. Likewise with the selection of coaches, the Manchester United analysis team must really understand what kind of coach suits the playing style of the players.

So what I can conclude is that the most likely reason why Manchester United has not been able to recover during these 10 seasons could be because the Manchester United analyst team has so far not been good at selecting players and coaches.

Wow it’s a decade already since Manchester United last won the EPL title and in the space of that 10 years they’ve been very bad. This season has been one season they want to end in a hurry because it’s been the worst of all as they have shattered all ugly records in just this season. What could be wrong? This Manchester United team used to be the pride of England and a dominant force across Europe. But currently they've lost it all and repeatedly get disgraced by inferior teams.

 Well I think the lack of quality coach has a role and another fault should be on the players that joined the club as these players have proven to be less than average and not up to the standard of playing for a club like Man United. ⁠Yes of course there’s a way out of every problem and for this I think the swiftest way out is on the scouting team to be able to check players who are really ready and worth playing for rhe badge and not some players who just wants the fame and money.

 The mew owners will have to spend a lot if they are to make this possible because I think this is the best way ou.  ⁠A proper planning and scouting of a player and making sure the player checks all boxes to be able to play for the club before even making a move for the player. If this is done, I think the club will be able to achieve great success in coming seasons.

[Odohu]

I have a feeling that Tottenham will mess up Manchester City league title dreams this season. Tottenham have been on losing streak, losing 4 matches straight which have made them lose their chances of qualifying for Champions League next season and even their chances of qualifying for Europa League is being threatened by Newcastle that have picked up form after their weeks of turbulence. Tottenham need to win at least one match if they must change the tide and the only option available is Brighton or Manchester City. I'm feeling that they might draw Brighton then win Manchester City. If this happens, then Arsenal's hope of winning the league will become reality.  

[redsun114]

I think, it will be difficult for Chelsea to win all their remaining matches to achieve all those points, because their performance was very poor from the beginning of the tournament that made others teams to be ahead of them and it will not be easy for Chelsea to win all those matches.The team you can expect that kind of winning from is Manchester city, which many people know that they will win all their remaining matches to take that position from Arsenal to repeat what happened last season to win the premier league title again. I think, top 5 position will be impossible for Chelsea to achieve in this season, because there are still some strong teams ahead of them which they will not allow Chelsea to cross 6 or 7 position before the end of the tournament.

On a paper, it wont be difficult for Chelsea to win all the 3 remaining matches because the 3 remaining opponents can be considered as easy team to beat compared to the 2 teams they have beaten previously (West Ham and Spurs). Mathematically they still have the chance to finish in the 5th position but they also need to rely on other results. In my opinion, there will be no significant changes on the standing at the of the season so I guess Chelsea will stay in where they are now.

With the three remaining games in this season and current performance are clearly indicating we are having some chance but just on papers because in remaining games we can expect Tottenham will be able to have 6 points which will allow them to stay at the fifth spot and Newcastle United and Chelsea will be fight for the sixth spot which is also going to be interesting situation for these clubs which were not good in early rounds of this season and now having some good performance which is giving them good chance.

But, this is still a good test case for these teams as they can improve their performance in next season, and then we can expect good challenging competition for the top ranks which are trademark of the Premier League.

[Strongkored]

Chelsea still has a chance to finish in fifth place provided they have to win their last three matches and hope that Newcastle and Tottenham drop points in the next three matches. The chances they have are very slim because they really depend on the results obtained by Tottenham or Newcastle. Tottenham certainly doesn't want fifth position to be taken by rivals who are below them. Consecutive defeats in the last four matches are a nightmare for Tottenham because their position is increasingly threatened. Next match they will face Burnley, they will try to end their losing streak in the last four matches to keep their position safe.

Chelsea certainly hopes that happens, but in my opinion, whether Chelsea can get fifth place or not depends quite a lot on this week's match, because just one draw will close down that opportunity, their opponents this week are weak on paper, but Nottingham still needs points to stay In its current position, outside the bottom three, Chelsea will be facing tough resistance, especially since Chelsea have suffered more defeats in away matches this season, of the 11 defeats they have experienced, 7 of them have been in away matches, so there are doubts that Chelsea will be able to get full points against Nottingham and If they fail to get full points then they only need to secure a ticket in a lower European competition than the Champions League and I think that's still good because they were even predicted to only stay outside the top 10 previously.

Yes, that's right and I think that's what Chelsea should do, at least they have maintained this team and not dropped to the bottom of the rankings, Chelsea management should keep Pocchetino for next season and not fire him, it seems the players have adapted enough to Pocchetino, it would be very detrimental if they had to replace him. Chelsea's new coach, he also as head coach probably knows which players he needs for his main squad so he doesn't spend too much of his budget and doesn't have any benefits.

Chelsea must have more productive players in the front line as well as in the back line so that their defense is strong enough next season. I am sure that by retaining Pocchetino it will make it easier for Chelsea next season to compete with the top teams, they often make things difficult for teams. top flight so far therefore Chelsea has the right to get quality players next season and be more productive in order to maintain consistency and get the best position in the EPL next season, even though this season Pocchetino cannot win any titles at least he can be given time for the next season. I'm sure the results will be better than this season

I might not know how to define Pochettino, today his good him and his players performing very well, the next game he becomes the worst but judging from this last few matches played, his been doing a lot of good deeds and I commend him for that. To be honest, Chelsea squad right now is not the best to take them winning trophies, no good top striker for proper finishing, we saw good opportunities that would have helped them topped the table but it was poorly converted and as we know we might not see Thiago Silva play anymore and with the current defenders, I don't think they can keep up with the process, a lot of reshuffling should be done.
