Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[youdacapt]

Now everyone talks about how Erik Tan Hag should have stayed, after having a miserable season and be hated by everyone, City win made him think that he is awesome as well, he won two cups with that team and he keeps stating that if United doesn't want him there, he could just leave and win cups with other teams.

I guarantee you that if he is sacked, he is not going to be hired by a team that has that chance, most of the teams that could win a cup will already have a manager for next season, so he is not going to be hired by anyone at all. I think it's quite clear that we are going to see ETH not stay, and these fluke will just be a story he keeps talking about for a long time in the future, there is nothing wrong with that.

Well, only fans who are made for banter are convinced about ten hag fa cup win at the end of a disastrous premier league campaign where the team were dominated by every nook and cranny of football club sides.

I hope he gets the sack and the club can move forward from the Dutchman favoritism squad selection and poor tactics going into the coming seasonb

[baeva]

It makes no sense to keep such a coach for just winning the FA Cup, the management are right to sack him, it's long overdue. What he achieved in his first season says nothing about him, as what matters is what the team can do now. And now it can only finish in 8th position in the table, as sad as it may sound. MU has to move on, with a new coach

Definitely, he's had all his chances to restructure the team and get them back to winning ways, but he hasn't loved up to expectation, so I think the management is super right by showing him the exit door. I just wish Pochettino would suffer the same fate for his clueless coaching approach thought the season.

Leaving Ten Hag would enable the team to suffer an extra season of underperformance just like the previous seasons and its a very bad decision. Rumors has it that T. Tuchel is finding his way back to premier league as Manchester united coach, its a nice one though.

Chelsea started playing normally at the end of the season, so maybe we shouldn't change coaches just yet. However, there are rumours that Xavi is being considered for the head coach position, since he is leaving Barcelona anyway, why not try his hand at the EPL. If it works out, he would be an extremely sought after coach.

Another interesting point is that Guardiola will not renew his contract with Manchester City. This is sad on one hand, but on the other hand it is better to leave at the peak, he has achieved everything he can with the team....

[red4slash]

No matter how weak Manchester United looked this season, they eventually won the trophy, and Arsenal, which was much better, remained nothing. But at the same time, no one is saying that Arteta could be fired, and there are constantly rumors that ten Hag will be fired. And for Arsenal nothing is guaranteed for next season, they could also remain without trophies, Chelsea, Newcastle or Tottenham could become stronger, or Liverpool will have a more successful season and for Arteta it will all end again in a season without trophies...

That happens because all aspects seen in this case do not refer to the trophy at the end of the season but to the performance shown to date.

The reason why many people want Ten Hag to leave is because he is not really worthy of his current performance to keep Manchester United even though the trophy is still quite good because indeed every season always gets at least 1 trophy but that does not make fans happy because in the end they are still bad for the competition in the EPL.

In contrast to Arteta's current condition even though he is currently even in the last 2 seasons not getting trophies when intense competition occurs but no one will think he should be fired because indeed in the last 2 seasons Arteta with Arsenal made an extraordinary breakthrough even this season they competed until the match in week 38 which means Arsenal's performance has greatly improved at this time so there is no reason to dismiss a good coach like Arteta for now.

[Weawant]

Why will someone even think that a good coach like Arteta will be fired? I don't think any club on earth will currently like to fire Arteta for his performances this season, finishing the Premier League table in second place and making it to the Champions League quarterfinals with his current squad. Honestly, it is not easy work. Currently in the Premier League, one of the best coaches this season after Guardiola is Arteta. And with this arteta, I believe Arsenal will achieve what they want very soon. Arteta has the potential to win different titles. Let's keep our eyes on next season.

Sacking a Coach is something that can happen to any coach regardless of how well he has been to a team, sometimes a coach might have achieved a whole lot for a team and yet still get sacked and it has happened in other teams across Europe, recently Barcelona got their Coach fired, xavi who has been the coach managing them through their financial down time but still get sacked because of a difference between him and the management.

Arteta has been able to do so much for Arsenal and has been able to build a team to a very good standard but then if feels different not having a result to show for it which actually has been the reason a few would see him as not been good enough as a Coach because usually trophies are what most coaches do show for their performance a a good coach by the end of the season, so regardless of how much a Coach have been able to build a team, if they don't have a trophy or results to show for it then it do feel like they are not good enough.

If only arteta is able to maintain this form untill next season, it's very likely they will be able to get a trophy by next season because it's usually very embarrassing that they have stayed this long with all their good performance and have been unable to win a trophy, even ten hag who has been considered a bad coach has been able to win two trophies for two seasons which has made some people feel he's any better but then I think arteta is such a good coach that with time is most definitely going to win a trophy soonest.

However, there are rumours that Xavi is being considered for the head coach position, since he is leaving Barcelona anyway, why not try his hand at the EPL. If it works out, he would be an extremely sought after coach.

That is unlikely to happen because it is seen from some news now that it is certain that Pochettino and Chelsea will separate at the end of the season where Chelsea have accepted Pochettino's resignation even though we do not know what the reason behind Poche's separation from Chelsea is clear at this time Chelsea will most likely have to try again to find a new coach for sustainability next season.

With conditions like this then indeed this could be a problem again for Chelsea because however with the conditions that occur now it is difficult actually for Chelsea to regain the same momentum if in the end the coach who will be brought in does not really match what is expected later.

In addition, with a new coach, it indirectly means that Chelsea must be ready with a reshuffle because in the end every coach will definitely do the scheme according to what he wants and it is not impossible that Pochettino's dream club can now be changed greatly in terms of overhaul by Chelsea's new coach next season.

Also an interesting match in the Championship today... Leeds will play Southampton... It will be a real battle and the winner will go to the EPL... It seems to me that Leeds have more chances, but probably the result can be unpredictable... The odds on either team winning are very high... I hope it will be as interesting as the FA Cup final...

We now know the result Southampton have qualified for the Premier League alongside Leicester and Ipwich.
It was a dramatic game but fortunately Southmapton held on for the second half so no more goals were scored.

Maybe at the beginning I thought Leeds would win because they dominated the game as well as the attack, but a little admired Southampton's defense was so solid that it did not penetrate into a goal for Leeds, and Armstrong's first-half goal was a savior for Southampton.

Congratulations Southampton back again to the highest caste.

Yes, Southampton have been luckier than Leeds... It turns out that Southampton and Leicester are back in the EPL after a year... The main thing for them will be to try to avoid relegation next season... To be honest I was expecting Leicester to make a comeback, but Southampton managed to surprise me today... But there are doubts that they will be able to do anything in the EPL...

It was a miracle that ETH stayed at Manchester United until the end of the season. I think Manchester United should have made a change of manager in the middle of last season. So that the new manager could prepare for the new season. Now, if a new manager comes in the team, he will need time to apply his tactics to the team. He will probably make some mistakes at the beginning and that will mean points lost for Manchester United. It might be better if Manchester gives ETH another chance. If he fails again, they can fix the problem by making a change in the middle of the season.

The truth is that Mauricio Pochentino's first season at Chelsea wasn't as impressive as many had thought it would be at the start of the season and that's why a lot of people especially the club fans weren't happy with the club's overall performance this season. However, considering how improved Chelsea were in their last 10 games of the season, I wasn't expecting the club management to sack Mauricio Pochentino after his last game of the season with the club.
Chelsea if we almost can remember hasn't been doing well in recent seasons and you don't expect a new manager to perform magic immediately he steps in. It's always a gradual process that requires gradual progress for the club to come back to winning ways again. Hopefully they get a manager that'll be good enough to change the performance of the club as fast as the club management wants it

[Furious 7]

Erik Ten Hang has a great achievement for Manchester United but it is not obvious to many people. After Sir Alex Ferguson, I think Erik Ten Hang is the coach that has achieved more than all other coaches. I don't know actually if he did more than Mourinho. Mourinho ended in 4th in the table and also he won the Europa League. Maybe Mourinho has a better record than Erik Ten Hang.

When compared to several other coaches such as Rangnick and Ole, Ten Hag is still better, but in this case we must be aware that the conditions have not changed much at this time where the trophies that Manchester United can get in each season are far compared to the performance they always do.

This season they must be willing to finish in 8th place in the EPL which indirectly they will not do any competition for the prestigious because the Champions League, Europa League and Conference legaue they cannot get and in my opinion this is a bad situation for a club as big as Manchester United so that despite the trophy they managed to get in the FA Cup yesterday it did not make them immediately turn into a club that will be praised.

Indeed, for the trophy it is a situation that is indeed quite good and they deserve to be appreciated but that is the only advantage of Ten Hag because when talking about Ten Hag's current minuses he has more disadvantages than advantages.

You don't know that, and you saying that don't mean it'll happen, even as a Manchester United head coach, Ajax and Bayern Munich made moves for him.
He will join a bigger and better side if Manchester United says he'll be sacked. It's funny how most of you here watch football with so much bias and hate. I always ask if people that talk this way really played football, SMH.
Erik Ten Hag is not a bad coach, it's time and he will also experience success if he is being backed for next season.

If you want to judge him, using a season to do that is not only stupid but foolish and dump. Use the both seasons he has worked as head coach of the club to judge him.
Just like he also said. Some comments are evident and obvious that they don't know nothing about football. If Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta' can also say same thing about him, then most of what I read here are completely noise.

[fadhilz123]

Well, only fans who are made for banter are convinced about ten hag fa cup win at the end of a disastrous premier league campaign where the team were dominated by every nook and cranny of football club sides.

I hope he gets the sack and the club can move forward from the Dutchman favoritism squad selection and poor tactics going into the coming seasonb

That seems like a bit of a brutal expectation for someone, although it is quite obvious that Erik Tan Hag has very little tactically to offer Manchester United this season. However, some Manchester United fans still hope that Erik Tan Hag can bring more tactics next season with a high level of consistency to the team if they want to win more matches in the coming season. However, the selection of players in the transfer market also needs to be paid attention to because I see that there are several players who need to be removed from Manchester United for next season.

He will probably make some mistakes at the beginning and that will mean points lost for Manchester United. It might be better if Manchester gives ETH another chance. If he fails again, they can fix the problem by making a change in the middle of the season.

Honestly to me that felt like the management been lenient enough to clear every form of doubt and justifying their actions when they eventually gets to sack him, he isn't a good coach enough yet he's not trying to make adjustments at the end or trying to get better probably to impress the team enough to have a reason to holding unto him as their coach, time factor wasn't a problem bas he was giving enough time.

Amidst the whole time given ETH he was not able to prove himself rather he bosted in the fact that he's still going to win trophies with another team if he gets sacked by Manchester united and he's not afraid of been sacked either, which shows he's not even remoseful about his incapabilities around the team despite the time he had to wright his wrongs. If a new manager comes, he's got some time till the beginning of the new season to make known his tactics to the players probably after their break, Manchester united may actually record some better improvement with another coach than they did with ETH


The trophies he won which is massaging his ego are such that I don't really see as a big deal especially the FA cup won this season which appeared to me like a sympathetic win because it became almost obvious to majority of those who saw that game that Manchester city didn't play at their peak els Manchester United we have seen and known this season were not going to be able to win Manchester city at all.

Let's first wait and see whether he will still be the coach since there is now a new owner involved. So far there hasn't been any talks I believe, but chances are that they kick him out I guess. Ten Hag didn't really give any good reasons to keep him. What are they even waiting for? Rank 8 and 31 points behind their rival Manchester City. I doubt that they deem that acceptable. And I think another season with him would be a huge waste.

They are making a mistake by using another coach and stop working with Pochentino. He hasn't had a bad performance since he started working at Chelsea, don't forget when he joined Chelsea the team was full of old and expensive players who had awful performances and the whole team had no motivation. Got started working at Chelsea while they had this bad situation but he tried to do his best for the team.
Pochentino used the younger players to help Chelsea have a better future in the next season and built this team's sell, maybe they had to give him more chances.

Yes, Southampton have been luckier than Leeds... It turns out that Southampton and Leicester are back in the EPL after a year... The main thing for them will be to try to avoid relegation next season... To be honest I was expecting Leicester to make a comeback, but Southampton managed to surprise me today... But there are doubts that they will be able to do anything in the EPL...

This is a very good development for Southampton. Hopefully they are ready to compete in the EPL because we know there are many great teams there who are aiming for EPL victory. This is a real stroke of luck for Southampton who managed to achieve promotion to the EPL. Even though in this match Leeds United tried to kick towards Southampton's goal, Southampton's defense was still very strong and difficult to penetrate until the match was over.

I think there is a high tendency that he won't be the coach of Manchester united come next season because of the way they actually ended the whole campaign and I think he himself has already made this clear when he was interviewed before the game at Wembley stadium for the FA cup final that he won so what united should be looking on for is for them to actually secure a new Coach that meets the criteria of a good coach and also have the records to back it up.

Yes, last season's failures made Southampton fail. However, this time, they managed to return to the Premier League after beating Leeds in the Championship play-off final. This brings an opportunity for Southampton to prove again that they can do it, right? However, this will also provide a challenge that will certainly be much tougher this season, because after all, many other clubs have been quite rising up so far. The only goal was a savior for Southampton in the final match, beating Leeds.

EPL is tough and these new sets will become vulnerable to elite teams. Surprise for everyone, we will get to watch the fierce performance that would be coming from these newly promoted clubs that also have strong experience. This is probably the time for average clubs to stand up the faces of elite teams because mistakes aren't welcome here.  We know Southampton and Leicester city understands fierce competition in the English Premier League, however they will managed to adapt to the game atmosphere.

FA cup can also be considered as a worthy achievement by Manchester United management but premier league is still more preferable to be won than the FA cup by any team. Won’t concluding on a sack for Ten Hag be disastrous to Manchester United too? Many clubs have sacked their coach at the end of the season and are all looking to refresh the squad quality of the team. Manchester United made a statement that Ten Hag is goign to leave even if he wins the FA Cup final. Right now, we don’t know the team management’s stance about it even after he won the FA cup to the biggest team in the premier league. We are waiting to hear the final verdict of  Ten Hag from the  Manchester United management’s. I still feel he’s not that bad of a coach but if they find a better person than him, they’ll relief him off his duty.

Congratulations to Southampton for returning to the English Premier League again after some seasons in the second division. Since Southampton were relegated, they've been doing their best to return to the English Premier League and was very close last season but failed. The club manager, players and fans I believe understands that it's one thing to return back to the English Premier League but absolutely a different thing to remain in the league and I believe they're very prepared for the task ahead
