Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[ndutndut]

I think it is quite obvious that we are talking about ETH being obnoxious at this point with this title. City losing this cup isn't really that sad for City since they won so many titles so far, treble last year, four in a row league this year, it's all great for them. But they did something that really hurts everyone else because now all the annoying United fans and all the annoying ETH followers (and he himself) really makes it quite boring and annoying and they keep talking about their "big" achievement.

It is obvious that United sucks, I mean you can look at UCL and League situation they are in right now to see how terrible they are, just because they got lucky and won against City is not a reason to consider them as good at all.

In my opinion, it is very natural for Man United to celebrate this victory excessively, because even though their team is not the favorite, they managed to beat a strong team like Man City. Indeed, for Man City the failure to win the FA Cup trophy was not that disappointing. However, it must be admitted that Man City's defeat against Man United was very embarrassing because we know that Man United this season was very bad and even had problems with several of their players being injured.

It was a fair game, at one moment you would see Man United beating Man City and at another moment you would see Man City beating them. This victory allows Man United to qualify for the European League next season after successfully winning the FA Cup. Yes, Man United did not qualify for the EPL League, but Man United qualified for the Europa League next season by winning the FA Cup. Of course, this is an extraordinary achievement for ETH at a time when the team is in decline.

I hope ETH stays at Man United because his performance is slowly improving. In the first year he won the Carabao Cup, in the second year he won the FA Cup, maybe in the third year he won the Europa League, and in the fourth year he might just win the EPL and Champions League. Everything needs a process.

Honestly, I'm wondering why Chelsea's owner is acting this way, normally the club owner would be hiring good coaches so that the team could win, and with that he would have recovered part of the money invested in the club. But what I've seen at Chelsea is something very strange, first they hired meaningless players, then they managed to improve thanks to the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino, now Chelsea's owner fired Mauricio Pochettino and hired a coach without great achievements. It looks like the owner of Chelsea wants to destroy the team even if it causes him losses, it is not normal for the owner of a team to hire a coach without great achievements even though he knows that the team has the budget to hire a great coach. Chelsea's performance next season will probably be very poor

Lol. No hard feelings though. Manchester City have done their part to make sure they win the FA Cup but they could not. This is not because they're not willing to add that to their baggage but simply because the luck was not on their side and even though they could not win the Match, they were able to play the United to stuppor. I think any united fan out there celebrating and jumping around should be ashamed because United really performed badly in this season and was only lucky to take the FA Cup. If I'm meant to rate these clubs by their performance across boards, Manchester City and Arsenal will always be favoured than Liverpool and Manchester united.

Despite Arsenal great performance this season people still talk down because Arsenal had two great season winning the title but no title, as an Arsenal fan it’s becoming normal hearing all this talks but I hope Arsenal will definitely do more better next season. Manchester United won just because Manchester City gave them the opportunity, I’ve said this before, if Manchester City had no title I believe they would have won the FA cup no doubt but, Manchester United also tried so let’s give them the credit they deserve despite all their ups and downs they still won a title.

You never can tell, anything can still happen,we can't judge a book by its cover,I mean,who knew Arteta would be a perfect manager for Arsenal after his first four games as Arsenal's manager? Every coach has something unique embedded in him,you just need to be patient with them and the star in them will start manifesting.He might be somebody you don't like,but before the boards will hire him,they might have believed in him to some certain extent that makes them confident that he can take Chelsea to the level they deserve.But I will also say this,that if they had given Pochetino time,he would have done well at Chelsea at the end of the day.

[SUPERSAIAN]

What makes you feel that Manchester city will do just fine as they are now, if Pep leaves the club. Have you not seen that some clubs performance declined and they are still finding it difficult to get a good coach to revive the teams back to their super form. Manchester city would have not achieve all these trophies without Pep, because if I can remember when Pep have not come to City, they were not as strong as this and they are not the favorite in EPL.

Pep selects his players, come with his own coach skill and tactics in order to make sure that he wins the match, he is loved by the players and he is a victorious coach. So tell me who will have such great qualities like Pep to help Manchester city to continue in their superb form. It is going to be a big problem for Manchester City is Pep leaves. Look at Napoli of last season that won Scudetto, but after a change of coach what did they achieve this season, and where are they on the table. A coach plays a major role to the success of a club. Look at Manchester united, after Fergie left, United has being struggling from season to season.

Pep is without doubt one of the best coaches in the world and I dare say that there couldn't be anyone better in his place at City, but it's time for a change, because somehow it gets boring to always see the same coaches with the same teams, doesn't it? We can watch City with Pep for another year and after that a lot will change. All other clubs change coaches after a few years at the latest and it's time for City too, although Pep apparently doesn't want to extend his contract and it's not City's fault.

Pep has spent his time at Manchester City, he has been successful enough in this club and now it is a situation that he would like to see in another league and team. Of course, such a good coach can foresee the right timing. Manchester City will stay for another year and get as many trophies as possible. It is a matter of curiosity how Manchester City will evolve after Pep Guardiola's departure.

It would be difficult to find a better one to replace him, but if they continue like this for a little longer, it will be really boring. The best thing is for a manager to coach a club for a few seasons.

For me, the Premier League is never boring at all even though so far Manchester City has been the team that dominates the title compared to many other teams. I'm not sure if people said the same thing when Manchester United and Liverpool dominated the title in the past, otherwise saying the Premier League is boring nowadays is probably very unfair.

Pep Guardiola is a coach who has the ability to win titles wherever he coaches. I know that so far he has only coached big teams like Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Manchester City, but when Pep Guardiola came to Manchester City, this team only had 4 titles in its cupboard (Premier League). Since Pep Guardiola signed a contract with Manchester City in 2016, Pep has won 17 titles for them in all competitions, both domestic and European.

Pep Guardiola, who is rumored to be leaving Man City when his contract expires there next year, will indeed be very unfortunate for the Man City squad. And maybe Man City's level of play will decline a little without Pep Guardiola. But other teams will definitely be happy to hear this. Especially a team that is their rival like Arsenal. But it could be that Arsenal is also not happy because if Arsenal can finally win or win the Premier League when Man City is no longer coached by Pep. Maybe that would lessen their sense of pride. So next year will probably be the last year for every Man City rival in the EPL to prove that they can beat Man City coached by Pep.

By the way, we all know that Pep always has the ambition to make the team he joins successful. And I think if Man United is coached by Pep in the future, maybe Man United will become a strong team like Man City. And that will be a painful thing for Man City. But I'm sure that if Pep leaves Man City then the team he goes to will definitely not be a team in the same city as Man City. And it could be a team from another league.

I'm not sure if people said the same thing when Manchester United and Liverpool dominated the title in the past, otherwise saying the Premier League is boring nowadays is probably very unfair.

In terms of competition, it is true that the EPL will never be boring but for the championship problem, it is clear that there is a little difference in the era of a few years ago and now where it is not boring but I am too easy to guess who will win because in the last few seasons even from Pep entering the EPL in 2016, Manchester City only lost 2 seasons to the EPL trophy so it is clear that no matter how big the competition in it, the champion is still the same in the end.

There must be someone who stops this before the EPL is completely dominated by Manchester City because for now it is not too much different from the Bundesliga in terms of trophies, the only difference is that the matches in the EPL are more interesting but for the trophy the fact is that until now the dominance of Manchester City still cannot be stopped by anyone.

But indeed it also cannot be blamed because after all, seeing from several other big clubs they have also tried extra especially seeing Arsenal in these 2 seasons they always try harder but it is difficult to face Manchester City as long as there is money, qualified players and Pep as the coach.

[baeva]

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.

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.

Pochettino's dream should leave the club altogether with him, as it will no longer be up to him to build the team. I don't see anything wrong with that, if you think about it that way. Because the team has to change constantly, there is no point in keeping the same tactics for several years in a row, they will become outdated, the opponents will adapt to them and it will be more and more difficult to win every time

Man City success in four consecutive seasons really deserves appreciation, Pep Guardiola cool hands make the Premier League look like the Bundesliga or Ligue 1, but the difference is that the competitive level is very different. This season Man City lost the top of the standings for several weeks, before finally Arsenal and Liverpool stumbled, fortunately Man City remained consistent in important matches. Arsenal has been Man City toughest competitor in the last two seasons, Arteta squad managed to suppress Man City until the season ended.

There is also another reason why Man City has been successful in the last four seasons, apart from the Pep Guardiola factor and better squad depth, it is because subscribe to the big four such as Liverpool, Man United and Chelsea are not at their best. We can see that Arsenal was unable to break Man City dominance even though Arteta has built a better squad. Next season, the competition for trophies will be even more competitive, if the elite Premier League teams are directly involved in challenging for the title. But for Pep Guardiola, this is not a scary signal, because they are used to and experienced for getting out of various pressures.

Of course, such a good coach can foresee the right timing. Manchester City will stay for another year and get as many trophies as possible. It is a matter of curiosity how Manchester City will evolve after Pep Guardiola's departure.

Indeed. Pep Guardiola becomes the coach of Man City since July, 2016. It is already 8 years ago, it is a long time for a manager to handle a team. I can understand if Pep Guardiola may begin to feel bored or tired. He already won many trophies and lead Man City to dominate EPL in every year. It makes sense if he doesn't want to extend his contract when it is over in June, 2025. He may plan to return to Spain or he wants to get a new experience in a new league. Serie A is the only top league in Europe that Pep Guardiola still has no experience as a manager there. I think he may plan to manage of one the big teams there.  

It would be difficult to find a better one to replace him, but if they continue like this for a little longer, it will be really boring. The best thing is for a manager to coach a club for a few seasons.

Man City will never get a new replacement who has the same quality as Pep Guardiola. I don't underestimate other younger managers, but to have a level of manager like Pep Guardiola is very difficult. I think only Zidane, Ancelotti, and Spalletti who can be the best successors of Guardiola in Man City. Spalletti probably will never be the manager of Man City, he has no interest in EPL teams. Meanwhile Zidane and Ancelotti will be difficult to negotiate because there are too many teams interested in them.

The dream of Mauricio Pochettino is basically to lift important trophies with Chelsea but it turn out everything didn't work smooth on their end. Both parties parted ways and I wish the very best for Pochettino because it's unfair treatment. Mauricio Pochettino is definitely not the coach we all expected him to be. Managing top clubs and having absolutely no improvement to further to enlarge his circle when it comes to achievements.

Pep Guardiola has contributed a lot and often won the English Premier League 4 times. It is not easy to be coach Pep Guardiola who always provides excellent support which makes Manchester City have a very big name and quite a lot of achievements. If Manchester City cannot retain Pep Guardiola as their best coach then there is no guarantee that Manchester City will have a coach like Pep Guardiola again.

Manchester City is the best leasing club in the English Premier League when it comes to performance. They've successfully outrun other rivals and they're currently threats to other oppositions. Pep Guardiola is always one step ahead of his rivals and this have always worked smooth for him. Pep Guardiola is a tough manager and his presence at the Etihad stadium have been nothing but promising for the club. Winning the English Premier League 4 times in a row, directly sending a message to every manager to buckled up because it's never going to be easy.

[Mayor of ogba]

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.

I repeat again, the performance of Pochettino during this season was not bad since he mostly used the younger players and this can be a great step forward for Chslea to have a much stronger and better team in the future and this can definitely help the team. But unfortunately, he couldn't get the result they were expecting to see from him and that's why Chelsea stopped working with Pochettino.
But they are not looking for a replacement for Pochettino.
Some coaches like Enzo Maresca, the former assistant of Guardiola, and Kieran McKenna, the coach of Ipswich are linked to this team but we know these are not better than Pochettino.

Pochettino didn't impress Chelsea's management earlier in the Premier League with a good performance, and at that time, his job was at risk because he wasn't getting positive results. But since Chelsea's performance took a new shape at the end of the Premier League season, making them overtake Manchester United in the Premier League table, Chelsea management should have allowed Pochettino to remain as Chelsea head coach because he has gotten the tactics that will help Chelsea perform better next season. I was surprised when I heard that Pochettino left Chelsea by mutual agreement. It will be hard for a new coach to adapt to this young Chelsea squad.

Pep Guardiola is a good coach and that is undeniable and the level of his coaching talent is unmatched to any in this time and that’s why he has been excelling in all competitions he finds himself playing in. I have a very high respect for him for this coaching skills. Nothing is going to last forever and Manchester City should enjoy what they have now before he leaves. They wouldn’t want him to leave, but of course he has to and try other places too in order to make him more diversify when looking into his own adventurous managerial journey. They should start searching for a suitable replacement for him which can be very difficult but they just have to try and get someone that cannot make the situation of the team worse but consistent or excel more.

Since Pep Guardiola signed a contract with Manchester City in 2016, Pep has won 17 titles for them in all competitions, both domestic and European.

Exactly, I don't think premier league can ever be boring with the dramas and struggles we see in the teams involved and overall, no dependence on any big team to always win matches and trophies in the league. Arsenal slightly missed the trophy this season, the story would've been different and who could ever imagine that Manchester united would defeat Manchester city in the FA cup final with a whooping 10 odds given to them to win that match? or Chelsea finishing 6th position after all the season's flop. Every team fights hard for a place on the table and these struggles makes the league special and entertaining when compared to other leagues with few favorites.

There are lots of drama in the premier league and lots of surprises coming from even proposed little teams, EPL is the most challenging league to play and any coach that coaches a team there and survives has real quality. Pep has done his best for Manchester city and if it's time to move on, he has surely left an indelible positive mark on the club. He will be missed, but he has to forge ahead with his managerial career in whichever way is pleasing to him.

Pochettino was even lucky to stay till the end of the season, if it had been Abramovich before the end of last year and let's say 2 week of January this year the man Pochettino would have been kicked out of the managerial role. The way Chelsea played wasn't something such a man (Abramovich) would take likely but Todd Boehly wasn't the man who knows when to act and if they bring in a new coach, I feel it will be the players who would find it difficult to adapt by the new Manager's pattern.

[Out of mind]

In this season in EPL each team qualified for Champions League, Europa League, Conference League according to their performance. Among them, the teams at the top of the points table, Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa, have qualified for the Champions League next season. Tottenham and Man United managed to qualify for the UEFA Europa League, if we saw last season Manchester United topped the points table.  But due to their position in the Europa League this season, the team failed to qualify for the Champions League this season due to poor performances. However, Man United came at the last minute to beat Manchester City in the FA Cup and earn a place in the Europa League. Although Chelsea had a good chance of playing in the Europa League, but for Manchester United, they now have the opportunity to play in the Conference League. Moreover, the teams that are in the relegation zone this season, Sheffield United, Burnley and Luton, have had poor performances which have led to their top spot in the points table.

Pochettino's dismissal was not a surprise. Recently, tensions have clearly increased at Stamford Bridge, after Pochettino criticized the club. This situation has caused an uproar among fans and players, because there has clearly been progress under Pochettino this season. After a poor start to the season, new signings, injuries and a bloated squad have all resulted in Chelsea managing just five wins from their first 16 Premier League games. However, things started to go well under Pochettino in the second half of the season. However, even if Pochettino manages to get Chelsea back into the Champions League this season, tensions within the club will remain. Because it is clear that the club wants someone who obeys, a manager who cannot refuse their decisions, and also defends them openly in front of the press.
