Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Rampagoe004]

Even though they are now an elite team in the EPL, Arsenal is still not able to become an outstanding team. I don't really hope that Arsenal can win the UEFA title because it is not easy to win because there are so many elite teams participating there. Arsenal must form a mentality in their players to win the EPL trophy as capital to continue their success at European level.

I agree with you. Arsenal is now one of the elite teams in the English league and they are the favorites to win the English league next season. Unfortunately they have failed in two seasons and this has really disappointed fans. I don't think Arteta needs to make many changes next season. They just need to play consistently and form a good player mentality. I also hope they will be able to win the English league because currently they have the best squad in the last few seasons.

The EPL schedule for the 24/25 season has been released and there is one team that is not so lucky at the start of the match. Ipwich Town is an EPL promotion team for this season and in the home and away match they have to face strong teams such as Liverpool and Manchester City. I couldn't stop thinking when I saw this, considering that it was very difficult for them to win and just not losing was already a good achievement at the start of the season.

But I think it will still be difficult and Ipwich Town will definitely lose 6 points at the start of their debut in the EPL. I don't have much hope for this promoted team, but if they are able to provide a surprise then it will be a significant note and can increase more motivation to face their opponents. Losing does not mean giving up and Ipwich Town must get used to the hot competition in the EPL.

In my opinion, it's the other way around - luck. Or do you think Ipswich would have a better chance in the middle of the season when the teams are in better shape or at the end of the season when every point can be golden? Just at the start, the randomness is higher than usual and the outsider can unexpectedly score “unplanned” points. Even if they lose both games, after Liverpool and City it will be easier for them to play with other clubs since the worst will be behind them.

They definitely may not have hope on their first two matches either winning or getting a draw but there's a way they may perform that will make us believe that there's a chance they may just do well to survive the relegation, which I think will likely be their aim in that game with this I don't really see these 2 matches as an unfortunate event with them since no matter what they are bound to face these team and other top teams in the Epl

Last season, Arsenal had to play a lot of matches, which caused their performance to decline and had a negative impact on the match they faced that day. Hopefully in the coming season Arsenal can learn from previous shortcomings and become better to achieve victory in the coming season.

It means there are certain things they are getting wrong and needs to work harder to get it right because this is those mistakes made are the major reason why they are yet to lift the title. This usually happens to them towards the end of the season but i hope  they will correct their mistake this time around and become better if not nothing will change they will just keep fighting but their best result will be second place.

I do get that some people may consider the team good enough to win the title and there are some very good players don't get me wrong, and they do have a good system too so I understand why people think they are good enough.

But I believe that their squad, and I do not mean just the 11 on the field, I mean subs and even a few after that, like in case injury and booking or even fatigue, is not enough. They have some good players, and they have a good system, but they are not all around great like City. Whenever City gets a lot of games, they have a deep squad that can all play at positions, they do not have any issues. Look at United, that whole team didn't had proper backs and defenders all season long, some teams just don't have that rotation. Arsenal will have the same "last games" issues next season too, because by then players are just tired.

Arteta needs to build a strong mentality in his players so that they can survive in achieving success in the Premier League.
Last season they collected points that were far from Manchester City, but entering the second half of the season at the end of the competition lost so many points that Manchester City chased and managed to get the Premier League trophy.
This season was repeated in a different style where Arsenal lost several wins in important matches so that Manchester City again took over at the top of the standings.

Arteta must build a mentality for Arsenal players because if not next season they will also experience the same thing.
Arteta has indeed succeeded in making Arsenal a title contender, but this is not enough because of two consecutive failed seasons. Competing next season will be much more difficult because several other clubs have also built strength like them.

Gradually, the mentality of the Gunners' young squad began to take shape. unfortunately, they failed to return to replace City as League champions. although, there is only a very small difference in points. Well, I think the mentality of the Arsenal players is now getting sharper. Hopefully, this summer they will start the game very well until the season ends. thus, Arsenal might be able to win the trophy in the end. Well, to make this happen now, Arteta is not only improving the mentality of his players. However, he also knows that his team's squad needs to add strength to compete closely with City. Therefore, it is reported that Arteta is targeting several names, especially for the front striker. just relying on G Jesus, Nketiah, does not add sharpness to their attack line. I think Arteta knows the shortcomings in his squad, so that's why several pure striker names have been linked with Arsenal in the transfer window to welcome the new season in various competitions. That doesn't mean I'm saying G Jesus isn't talented, it's just that Arsenal really need a sharp, pure striker.

IMO, they need a goal getter to become the Target Man in their squad. Apart from that, this way Arteta has several names for the line to be placed in the center forward position. Maybe that way, Arsenal will be more productive and competitive. Well, in the previous two seasons, Arsenal experienced improvement, especially in the new season. Based on their efforts, this summer should be Arsenal's first step in winning trophies. To be sure, we'll see in the new season.

Successive failures in the last two seasons have left Arsenal deeply disappointed, they almost won it, but due to mistakes made towards the end of the season, the EPL trophy belonged to Manchester City. Arteta has succeeded in making Arsenal a team capable of competing in the title race, but as a result of not being able to consistently maintain their performance, they had to settle for finishing as runners up.

Even though they are now an elite team in the EPL, Arsenal is still not able to become an outstanding team. I don't really hope that Arsenal can win the UEFA title because it is not easy to win because there are so many elite teams participating there. Arsenal must form a mentality in their players to win the EPL trophy as capital to continue their success at European level.

That's right, Arsenal are now perceived as the only team that can resist City, and I think that will remain the same next season. Liverpool will have a new coach, it is unknown how he will cope with managing the team, and I also don’t expect anything big from other teams, Newcastle often has a lot of injuries, or Chelsea came Mareska, but there are no new transfers, I won’t say anything about Aston Villa yet, I think that Emery is capable of surprising. So Arsenal remains the most likely opponent who will try to become a champion again.

Every season we have seen Manchester City struggle to the end in the English Premier League, apart from Arsenal we haven't seen any team struggle with the Manchester boy in the last few seasons. I expected something different this season because Liverpool have competed well from start to finish this season, but suddenly at the end, they performed so badly. Their performance could have been better towards the end but it was not to be. If Arsenal could have played a bit more responsibly they could have won the title this season but that was not to be. Maybe we will see something like this next season too where Arsenal are in tough competition with Manchester City.

Due to how well they perform last two seasons, Arsenal is now consider among the top three teams in the English Premier League, and they are among the favorites to win the league after Manchester City.
Arteta and the management don’t need to do much because they still have quality players that can still perform for more than two years to come. In terms of midfield, they only need squad depth, same as defense; they just need to add left back that can be supporting Zinchenko, Tomiyasu and Timber, while they are comfortable with the two right backs Timber and White and their able strong and reliable central defenders Saliba and Gebriel.

The only challenge now is strikers, they need to replace Nketiah and Jesus because lack of striker cost them a lot last season.

The struggle is real and we all know that, keen on the possible options of winning. Liverpool and Arsenal have been the top challenge for Manchester City in previous season and we've come to acknowledge the fact that Pep Guardiola is always two steps ahead of his opponents. He doesn't relent when it comes to his managerial position, he's ready to take lead for the EPL title race, however there's no special opponents capable of exploring their opportunities to beat Manchester City.

The English premier league always turned to Manchester city fevor in every season, but this season was very surprised to me due to how they where perform in the league there performance looks some how poorly and when the league was coming to an end Manchester city becoming tough to every of their opponents. But the only thing I see there is that Arsenal refuse to hold their consistent when the season was coming to an end they made a big mistake against Aston Villa by giving them chances to defeat them in easily, and that's the the same mistake they make last season which all the fans was saying that they will out much effort to dominate the premier League this season; but not happen may be they will put some to improve their performance more in next coming season.

Liverpool start the season with good performance which i was even have hope for them that if they continue with that form they will dominate the league with how they they try to competed well in every of their opponents; but later the disappoint the fans by prove poorly performance at the end of the league.

[Leviathan.007]

Whether he admits it or not, Arteta is still unable to transform Arsenal into a team with a winning mentality. Arteta continues to learn from his mistakes every season, but Arsenal always fails to compete for the title. This team must have the ability to maintain its performance and not easily slip up in matches against small clubs if it wants to win the EPL trophy. Next season will be a new challenge for Arteta to continue to maintain Arsenal quality by always playing optimally in every match. Arsenal already has quality players in all lines and they are still young, their strengths and abilities must be applied in good cooperation between players in order to achieve goals that almost every season they always fail to achieve.

Well, the problem with the Arsenal squad lies in their mentality. Arsenal tends to always be unprepared for big competitions like the UCL. The comparison of their performance in the Premier League and in the UCL is even clearly visible. But in the Premier League I think Arsenal has become a team that is difficult for other strong teams to beat. Even Man City last season failed to beat Arsenal. Unfortunately, Arsenal sometimes experience less than good results when facing teams that are considered ordinary. Meanwhile, when facing a strong team, Arsenal always looks convincing. But Arteta has succeeded in making Arsenal improve every year. And maybe next season Arteta will also bring Arsenal to an even higher level. But to be honest, I sometimes still doubt whether Arsenal will succeed in winning the Premier League title next season or not. Because Man City certainly won't let Arsenal have the advantage. But I'm sure many people hope that Arsenal will win the title. Because Arteta really deserves it. He has succeeded in making Arsenal a team that Man City couldn't even beat last season.

Just Compare Arsenal with the time when they didn't have Arteta in the team, I'm not saying they are in their best form currently but the thing about Arsenal is they are in a much better situation and don't forget they were very much close to winning the Premier League title during last two years while Ateta is not experienced coach like Guardiola and he lost the race to a team like Manchester City that has too much superstar player and a coach like Guardiola who can be an advantage for any team.
But, still, Arteta and his team are not really ready to race in the great tournaments like the Champions League.

Manchester City has played very well this season too. But I'd say it's going to be more difficult for City to win the Premier League title next season. City easily won the Premier League title in the 2022-23 season. But it was difficult for City to win the title last season. Arsenal tried their best to win the title. City would not have won the title if they dropped a point in any of the matches.

Arsenal and Liverpool will certainly look to strengthen their squads. And both these teams will compete for the title next season. It is very difficult to compete with City for the title. Even so, I would say it will be more difficult for City to dominate the Premier League next season.

Really? I thought a lot of the players actually had problems with the coach. Well, those players who actually had problems with the coach have already left Manchester United or are not in Manchester United right now, lol . Because they are on loan and playing for another club. Some players have directly said that they are not going to ever come back to Manchester United or something along those lines. It is actually a little surprising to see a Manchester United player saying the exact opposite. Good for Manchester United and the coach of Manchester United I guess. After being thrashed so badly by almost the whole world and also the media, this is actually good to hear, lol.

[bering]

Ipswich Town is indeed a promoted team, but they could give a surprise at the start of next season by playing defensively, we don't know what their strength will be in the EPL this season, the struggle to qualify for the EPL is certainly a challenge in itself for this team, we will probably see their abilities Actually, Ipwich Town in the EPL this season, even though they had to end up losing points, at least they could show their abilities or steal one point from both meetings with big teams like Liverpool and Manchester City at the start of the season.

In Championship, Ipswich Town is a team with the highest scores and highest conceded among top 3 teams, it means they're an aggressive team. But, regardless they play with aggressive or defensive style, I don't believe they will make any difference like the three Championship's teams that relegated in this season, they were strong in Championship, but being humiliated in Premier League.

I expect three Championship teams that promoted in this season will relegated too.

Championship division is quite different than Premier League so there is no guarantee the team from that division will performing well in Premier League and it proven from this season that Burnley, Luton, and Sheffield United that their status as promotion team on season 2022/2023 but they can't do nothing and frequently to lose and it makes them have to return to the Championship again even for Brunley that previously i was hope they can survive in Premier League because they are Championship division winner but unfortunately Burnley has poor records which make them have to relegated this season

Next season we have Southampton, Leicester, and Ipswich and looking forward to see the performance of them for next season and i know their chances to survive in Premier League is quite hard but personally i would like to to see the performance of Leicester because as the former champion they have good history in Premier League but unfortunately after Enzo Maresca leave Leicester currently haven't gets new manager

Yeah, Erik Ten Hag is fully responsible for the growth of Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo but it seems like he has something more for Kobbie Mainoo to Garnacho.
I see the way he relates with these yougins and it gives me flashbacks of Sir Alex Ferguson and Cristiano Ronaldo during their time in the Premier League Competition.

Erik Ten Hag is a good coach, you can go ask Dusan Tadic better. I haven't even met him and I have this love for him ( No Homo ) He has no issues with Jadon Sancho, just that Sancho has refused to say he is sorry. So much pride and ego for a player who hasn't even played shit for Manchester United.

Glad to see they're selling him completely. He us ine ungrateful player. He doesn't deserves Manchester United.

I am very sure that not every team in the English premier league are happy that City won the league last season again,most persons where hoping for Arsenal to win,but Arsenal lost the battle the day they allowed Aston Villa to win them 2:0.Manchestet City capitalise on that single mistake and made sure they remained unbeaten till the season ended.Next season,we are hoping that most premier league teams will be angry and compete with Mancity in the possible way they can.It will be another tough season because Pep Guardiola will want to win a final league tittle before moving to another league.

In fact, Manchester City's performance this season is not very good, they are always left behind and have not been able to occupy the top position for quite a long time, it's just that the mentality and fighting power of the Manchester City players is very different from other teams and they are very ready to fight until the final match.

In my opinion, next season the competition will not change much. Arsenal and Manchester City will again be involved in tight competition and the Gunners will even be more expected to be able to break the chain of champions from Man. City. However, all Premier League participants must admit that Pep Guardiola is always the difference.

If you can’t win trophies with your best squad then it’s nothing been praiseworthy of. You need to use that squad to get that which you’ll be appraised for by the team management and the players. Arsenal are still one of the favourites for the league trophy in next season, but they have to remain adamant in the pursuit of it and not fumble too many times like they did in the previous seasons. I have come to realize how strong Arsenal can be and how they can be contending for the league trophy if they wish. Manchester City is not a problem to me, they can definitely defeat them but that lack of consistency is what is killing them and they need to improve in the next season so that story don’t keep repeating itself season after season.

I couldn't stop thinking when I saw this, considering that it was very difficult for them to win and just not losing was already a good achievement at the start of the season.

I don't have much hope for this promoted team, but if they are able to provide a surprise then it will be a significant note and can increase more motivation to face their opponents. Losing does not mean giving up and Ipwich Town must get used to the hot competition in the EPL.

I feel very happy to see the English League match schedule for the 2024-2025 season and of course the new teams that have entered will replace the teams that were relegated for the 2023-2024 season and of course we will see their performances Yes, it's really a shame for the EPL teams that have just entered, one teams of which is for the 2024-2025 season namely Epswich Town In their first match they have to meet Liverpool, which is a strong team and of course it won't be easy for Ipswich Town because Liverpool is a strong team and will definitely It is difficult for Ipswich to beat Liverpool. and indeed in the second match it will certainly be more difficult because Ipswich town will meet Pep's troops who are champions in the EPL in a row which will definitely not be easy for Ipswich town to win against these 2 strong teams.

I personally also agree with you because I also think that Ipswich has a big potential of not getting points. but of course I personally will not take it lightly because Ipswich is a strong team in the Championship and is the runner up champion and I am also sure that Manchester City and Liverpool will not take Ipswich lightly because of course Ipswich getting to the EPL is certainly not an easy journey.

Yes, if for example Ipswich can win or draw it will certainly make Ipswich a team that will be respected by all teams in the EPL. but McKenna will definitely try to make Ipswich perform as well as possible and as optimally as possible. Looks like it will be an exciting match and I can't wait to see the match.

For Arsenal to be projected to win the CL, they must first win the English Premier League before we will be confident that they will be able to win the Champions League.  Arsenal has what it takes to win the EPL only if they are focused and determined to win it. In the last two seasons, it was Arteta I blamed because he kept reusing the same players to play all the matches even when he had alternatives. As of last season, I don't know what to say, just a lost to Aston villa made them lose the title.

For me, it will be a significant setback for Ipswich Town to face the major clubs early in the forthcoming season. Manchester City is still performing well, and there is still a sense of excitement in all of manchester city's players to create a new record in premier league. Also, there hasn't been much alteration in Manchester City's team, thus ipswtich can only rely on luck against them.
I believe Ipswitch has no chance of winning their away game against Manchester City, but I see things are different with Liverpool's match. Even though Ipswich is a substandard team, Liverpool is now rebuilding the club from the ground up after Arne Slot took the lead in the squad.
Ipswitch expects to have a better chance against Liverpool than against Manchester City. Finally, ipswitch town will rely solely on luck, given the disparity in talent between their squads in comparison with Manchester City and Liverpool.

Even Ipswitch Town requires a miracle to get two points from the games against Liverpool and Manchester City. The calibre of the team has become the key difference here, indicating how incapable ipswitch is of stealing points from Manchester City and Liverpool.
