Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Abu-Naim]

I’m looking for a new team to support instead of Chelsea. After yesterday's sacking of coach Pochettino, I've been trying to avoid anything related to Chelsea. I've even unfollowed the board members on Twitter. I can't understand what they expect from managers. Those billionaire owners seem to want a manager who will just bow to them, like Porters. One more season could have made a difference; the statistics prove it. This is a young team with their first experience in England, and Pochettino guided them to winning ways. They played well even during the toughest part of the season when other teams were fighting for survival.Boehly and Eghbali should just go to H**l

If you are a true fan, you will never think of leaving the team just because of this decision of changing or sacking Pochettihnho; if you are a real Chelsea fan, you should have been used to different coaches because Chelsea is a team that don’t usually give coaches long time like Arsenal and Manchester United.

The new Chelsea owners are not actually trying, they don’t believe in any long term process of building team, that is why they are sacking their managers after a failed season, and I don’t think doing so will give the team the best performance they need; over changing managers can even lead the team to downfall because any new coach have to start from beginning and sign another players he feel can do better for him which is another expenses for the team and it will trigger some players to easily leave the club.

Ten Hag to Chelsea? here we go!!! The Netherlands give a special mission for Ten Hag to ruin Chelsea after he successfully ruined Manchester United.

haha Although it seems very bitter to listen to you. But I agree with you. We see no improvement in Manchester United's performance with Ten Hag. Rather, I have seen Manchester United's performance deteriorate day by day. If Chelsea management coach Ten Hag as Pochettino's replacement, I can't call it a good decision. This will be another bad decision by Chelsea management.

I don't know if this is a credible news. However, this is likely to happen. Pochettino decided to not be with Chelsea anymore.   Maybe he's not happy with Chelsea Management's Behaviour.   Bayern Munich, on the other hand, is not satisfied with their coach Tucle. Munich is third in Bundesliga this season. Such a bad performance Munich has not been done in the past 5 years. Bayern Munich could not even occupy the second place.   So it is fairly certain that Munich will appoint a new coach next season.
Ten Hag can make any improvement in Manchester United.   Day by day we are seeing United's fall.   Ten Hag could not strengthen the Manchester United team despite having big funds. So United Management is also looking for a new coach.   Manchester United Management can make POCH a new coach as an alternative to Ten Hag.

It's better for him to join Manchester United, it's easier to improving weak teams to better rather than improving strong teams to be greatest. As we can see even Chelsea didn't become a champion, many people thankful to Pochettino.
Liverpool is expected to be weak team in the next season, so Manchester United has better chance to step up.

I agree with you. Joining Manchester United would be the right decision for Pochettino. Manchett's United already have a strong squad. At the same time, Pochettino will have the funds he needs to buy players and strengthen the squad. So Pochettino can take the necessary steps to stabilize the Manchester United team. I would be happy to see Pochettino with the Manchester United squad.

It's also boring for me to see the same team winning year after year. It's undeniable how close this Arsenal team came to the title, but they were unlucky because their contenders stayed consistent at the end of the season and made no single mistakes. Arsenal and Man City are both great teams, but only one can win the title. I wish Arsenal the best of luck next season.
And of-course we have to appreciate that Pep has built an incredible team under his reign. Winning four EPL in a row is unbelievable. Even though repeating last season's treble won't happen, but the possibility of a domestic double is almost certain. Pep will easily win the FA Cup because Man United doesn't have a quality coach or keeper.

Yes, even though it's boring, we also can't do anything if each club has shown its best performance in one season. Usually clubs that have won the title for several seasons are always the favorites to win again if the club is still in strong condition and Manchester City is still in strong condition and not experiencing a decline in performance, if this club changes coaches or experiences a decline, it is possible that Manchester City will not win the title in 4 consecutive seasons because the Premier League is a competitive league where every competition is quite difficult and every club definitely has difficulty competing there. However, Arsenal and Manchester City have been able to compete in the title race in the last 2 seasons, meaning they still both have strong performances.

And Pep Guardiola is still at Manchester City and he is no doubt the coach of this club and is always successful in the Premier League so I think if Pep is still at Manchester City for a long time and continues to extend his contract Manchester City will continue to win titles. I'm not sure Mikel Arteta can beat his former manager because tactically it's clear that Pep Guardiola is superior to Mikel Arteta and over time the Premier League will become a farmers' league if that's always the winner.

I think, Arsenal really performed well in this season compared to last season that made them to ended up in third position, but they tried their possible best to win the title this season but Manchester city never allow such opportunity to come to Arsenal that made them to ended up in second position. Based on what they displayed in this season, i think there is a hope for them to break the record next season because their coach will like to use the summer to sign in potential players that will make Arsenal team more stronger, because they have the funds to finance the signing. Aston villa and Chelsea, I know they will going to join the group of teams that will maintain a top position in the premier league competition next season, because they performed well to come closed to the top teams in this season.

It's true, this season of course Arsenal are better than last season, even though they failed to win the EPL this season but of course changes have been seen with them being able to finish in second place, this is quite good, because they had the opportunity to win but failed because there were Manchester City still dominates the League. Arsenal's good performance deserves appreciation because of course Arsenal have done their best this season so they can be in second place. but they are still not lucky, because Manchester City is stronger and has better performance so they can win the EPL.

Arsenal need to improve their performance a little for next season, because Arsenal has the opportunity to perform better next season to become a strong team and perhaps be able to compete with Manchester City. With the funds they have, of course they can recruit quality players to make Arsenal stronger next season.

It's true that true fans won't do that and will be there to support even when the club conditions are bad. But I can understand some seasonal fans and that's their right, so if you want to find a team that feels they should win the league every season then for now it's Manchester City, and if the middle of the road isn't suitable then move again. In essence, he is not a fan of the club, but a fan of the trophy to whichever club the trophy falls means he is a fan.

Imao Chelsea this season is quite good, even though they didn't qualify for the UCL or Europa League, but when compared with last season's progress we should be able to see positive developments. Losing and winning is normal, however we also don't like criticizing Chelsea performance in several matches. As a football lover I can only enjoy it until the end of the season.

[Elon_gida]

I think Manchester City can aim for the final victory this year and make up for the disappointments they had last year

mancity had a dissapointment last year? they seem to be a cheat team to be, absolutely no way they are'nt going to win the championship

[ancafe]

It was Chelsea's condition that made Pochettino leave. He felt uncomfortable at Chelsea.  It seems that this achievement is not considered a good achievement. The management is not satisfied with the current conditions, so they are never satisfied with Pochettino's achievements. Actually, changing coaches only makes time increase to wait for better achievements or maybe even they can fail. Pochettino should stay at least 1 more year, if he has good progress, they can increase the duration of the contract. I want to see how later they develop or get worse.

Achieving quick success is not easy in football and changing coaches will definitely have an impact on the team. Pochettino does not have the abilities of some other great coaches, but he succeeded in bringing Chelsea to a much better place in the standings. If management can provide support then Pochettino can definitely give his best for the next few seasons, but in the English league that is difficult because they want the title.

This season there will be a change of new coach and it is not guaranteed that Chelsea will be able to compete for the title. Because there is a lot of work that must be done by the new coach and the competition in the English league will be very different and it takes a lot of things to make the team stronger in the competition.

Chelsea keeps firing manager after manager every year, firing Tuchel the moment new owner came in (that was obviously some office guys like director or consultant or whatever hating him) and then Potter and Pochettino now, basically we are talking about Chelsea keep firing managers all the time and there is really nothing that can benefit them from this at all.

They need to realize that Arteta didn't do so well on their first ever year, even when City was bought, they didn't win right away, basically these things take time and they need to realize that they are getting a very good team and a young one, so if they keep a manager then they could just simply end up with getting better and better with time, can't keep firing managers.

However, Arsenal and Manchester City have been able to compete in the title race in the last 2 seasons, meaning they still both have strong performances.

In my opinion other top teams who ought to have challenge Man City for the title were all shadow of former self with exception of Arsenal, I expected teams like Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham to give Man City a run of their money unfortunately they couldn't live up many fans expectations, though I give credit to Guardiola for putting up a formidable squad despite selling some his quality players at the beginning of season yet against all odds clinched the league title for four consecutive time thus breaking a record in EPL, well the season is gone, however I believe other top teams would boost their squad and sign quality players for next season so as to stop Man City winning another title.

[masulum]

This is not Manchester City's fault, but rather the mistakes and inability of other teams to compete for the title. In the last two seasons, Arsenal was able to provide the best competition for Manchester City in the title race, but Arsenal failed in the second half, especially towards the end of the season. Manchester City, which has quality coaches and players, is clearly capable of dominating, but that is normal when the team is managed well and the players' performance can be expected.

Of course I'm not saying this is Man City's fault, but what I mean is the bad conditions experienced by Chelsea, MU of course has been a bonus for City, Liverpool, Arsenal put pressure on City, but in the end City was able to become champion because of the mistakes made by Liverpool and Arsenal. If Liverpool and Arsenal had not made mistakes in the last 20 matches with several lose, maybe we would have seen Liverpool and Arsenal competing for the championship. This may be considered more interesting by some people, than seeing the competition between Arsenal and City where in the end City became champion.

Yes indeed, and from one of the sources available also that Pochettino was not included in the plan to recruit players and also release players. With these differences, there was tension between them until finally Pochettino chose to leave. But indeed, it also seems like an attempt for Chelsea to sack Pochettino and I think it might not be a good decision either. Because anyway, Pochettino also stillmanaged to make Chelsea recover at the end of theseason despite only being able to finish in the top six butstill, it was also still a good result for Chelsea.

But indeed,  it seems to have become a tradition forChelsea to sack the coach when the coach fails to make Chelsea compete in the top four.  But anyway, if they continue to sack the coach like that. Then ofcourse, it will be difficult for Chelsea to form a solid team throughout the season, because the change of coach like that will certainly require a lot of time to adjust and adapt.

I think have bad tactician if Chelsea change head coach every season and new head coach need time for adapting with his tactician for next season regarding with Pochettino needed almost one season how to make Chelsea success finish on 6th standings position. Building new team with new tactician need time exactly with the next manager after Pochettino has some players not in their scheme, need new player signing and build up new tactician for adopting well but Chelsea's management has target must be qualify to Champion League for next season or keep in the Premier League tittle race.

Since new era after leaving by Abramovich as Chelsea owner get many internal problem and inconsistency of manager without one year have sacked from his position. I doubt for new Chelsea manager for next season how short become manager behind many previous manager got sack without one season and only Pochettino success completed until one season.
Next who will be new Chelsea's manager candidate and potential will make huge rotation by selling old players under Pochettino era or keep fully trusted 100% with the previous squad dominance by youth players.

This problem is also faced to Manchester United too, the fans and managements always like to sack the manager when Manchester United didn't qualify for Champions League or didn't become a champion in top competition.

Both of the teams need to learn if Rome wasn't built in a day, process is really important. It's only exception if the team is full of star players and can perform like Bayern Munich or Real Madrid, if they didn't win, it's due to the manager.

There is actually a difference here, especially for Pochettino's current problems.

Poche reportedly resigned not fired and this is an important point to realize where resigning and being fired even though they both leave the club but the way is different.
Poche resigned and Chelsea could not do much to hold him back because the decision was already a final decision from Poche who wanted to leave even though we don't know the exact reason but indeed the important point is resigning not being fired.

For Manchester United when talking about sacking then indeed it is a fair price because if we reflect on the era of Rangnick and Ole it cannot be proud of. Now for Ten Hag actually this also deserves to be fired because seeing from what is happening now then indeed what needs to be maintained with Manchester United's chaotic situation so it is good enough that he is allowed to leave even though currently there is still no decision about this.

[Catenaccio]

With these differences, there was tension between them until finally Pochettino chose to leave. But indeed, it also seems like an attempt for Chelsea to sack Pochettino and I think it might not be a good decision either.

They gained good results and rank at the season ending together. They tried to sit down, negotiated with each other for future and a possible contract expansion but finally they decided to separate with each other.

In general, it is really difficult to prove that Pochettino had a bad season with Chelsea so this sack comes from many things behind the scene in Stamford Bridge that did not reveal to the public and their fans so far.

Pochettino actually wanted to do better with Chelsea next season but with disagreement for future development, budget for transfers maybe, a separation is unavoidable. He will be missed in Chelsea by what he did for them this season and Chelsea will regret a lot if in a new season, they won't be able to perform well and won't complete that season at a same or higher rank than this season.

[Gallar]

Pochettino is doing a great job and the way Chelsea finished his PL 2024 on a high note Pochettino deserves another chance to show his class in next season.
I don't know why Chelsea fans didn't like Pochettino why.
Anyway now its done Pochettino and Management decide to sperate their way by mutual understanding.

In my opinion, Chelsea management made the decision to fire Pochettino too quickly and without any consideration at all. Because Pochettino has only been Chelsea coach for one season, Chelsea management should give Pochettino another season's opportunity next season to prove his quality. Because according to my observations, Chelsea is currently heading in a much better direction. The reason is that at the end of this season, Chelsea's performance could be said to be quite good because they were able to wipe out their last 5 matches in the Premier League with a win. Apart from that, Pochettino also succeeded in bringing Chelsea to finish in 6th position and will definitely qualify for the European league next season. This is clear evidence that Pochettino has very good prospects with Chelsea even though it has only been one season. So, if for example next season Chelsea retains Pochettino, I think it is not impossible that Chelsea can compete again for the Premier League title.

However, with Pochettino's dismissal, I think Chelsea will perform badly next season because the players will definitely have to adapt again to their new coach. So in essence, if Chelsea continues to change coaches like now, I'm sure Chelsea will not experience significant progress. Maybe Chelsea will continue to remain as a mid-table team in the English league next season.
Apart from that, I don't know who the coach will replace Pochettino next season, do you know?

[m2017]

Of course I'm not saying this is Man City's fault, but what I mean is the bad conditions experienced by Chelsea, MU of course has been a bonus for City, Liverpool, Arsenal put pressure on City, but in the end City was able to become champion because of the mistakes made by Liverpool and Arsenal. If Liverpool and Arsenal had not made mistakes in the last 20 matches with several lose, maybe we would have seen Liverpool and Arsenal competing for the championship. This may be considered more interesting by some people, than seeing the competition between Arsenal and City where in the end City became champion.

This rivalry between Arsenal and Man City seems predetermined in favor of Man City. Once again, Arsenal finds itself one step away from the championship cup, as if evil fate is haunting this team. It seems like the Arsenal game is missing something to deserve the title of champion. Will Man City take the cup again next season? I wouldn't be surprised if this happens.
 
I would prefer to see more teams in real competition for the Premier League Cup, since most of the league acts only as extras. But the gap from the leaders in points shows that, at the very least, only 2 teams can claim the cup, with the exception of the team that got it.

Chelsea management's decision to agree not to give Pochettino the opportunity to train for a second season may still make sense. I don't know exactly what caused the two parties to agree to no longer work together, but this agreement was taken for the common good, especially because Chelsea really hopes to return to competing tightly at the top of the standings instead of in the top 6.

Losing 11 games and conceding 63 goals in 38 games are poor statistics when we evaluate Chelsea's performance this season. The team's performance is not commensurate with the large transfer fees they spend in a season, of course that is one of the reasons why Pochettino is no longer wanted at Chelsea. Chelsea needs a coach who has proven success based on his past performance, but if Chelsea expects him to change everything in one season, then that is very difficult for any coach.

Chelsea keep sacking their managers every time is not the best for the team because literally looking at how the team have been for some seasons now you will see that at some point in the season they do well but on getting to some certain stages dey lose focus and lose matches from there their performance starts reducing and when they are also winning they try to win consecutively just like they did towards the end of the season though during the season there was a time when they win one match and draw the next or even lose but since they were able to finish top 6 position in the league table have shown that they have recorded lots of improvements of which if they continue with that energy next season they will do better but since the management chose to fire Pochettino, let's see the coach that will lead the team to a good dimension because this idea of sacking coaches by Chelsea and Manchester United is alarming although as for Manchester United, they really need a new coach and they were even the team i thought would sack their coach instead of Chelsea.
