Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Basically, the management doesn't want to take too long to see good results from the coach they have chosen to provide good direction at Chelsea. So, in this way, indirectly, the management forces the trainers to immediately give all their best abilities and there is no time to spend relaxing.

In a way, I wouldn’t have to blame Chelsea over their manager and the stands they are taking towards ensuring the team gets back in shape and would be out there for that team progress. Chelsea have got several trier and error coaches hence, they need to be getting results from every game Chelsea plays next season. It’s the start of a season, it’s a clean slate and should Enzo Maresca manage to stroke right, get his boys to actually play like a team, they would be able to find a performance that would impress the fans and bench.

Chelsea signing promising young potential talents, exactly the targets of other elite clubs in England. None of these top clubs would offer gigantic bids for advanced players, they're making smooth run for players that have promising future and securing them now for lengthy contract ought to be their aim. I'm a Chelsea fan and I totally understand the destination Todd Boehly is driving the club. He's one of the important elements to make crucial decision for the club and we have idea about the club. Its just a matter of time before Chelsea will take to their heels and become formidable against opponents.

Yeah, I agree with you that Chelsea still needs a process to build a solid squad besides that it takes the right manager to do it, Chelsea actually started to find their game towards the end of the season and Chelsea managed to climb to 6th position in the standings chasing Manchester United and Newcastle but unfortunately these positive results did not make the club owner change his decision to look for a new coach.

Yeah, they have the right to do whatever until they find what they want. Enzo Maresca has experience and ability he should be able to adapt quickly and if he fails in the first season so I hope Chelsea management gives him another season's chance to find the most appropriate strategy. Several sports media reported that Enzo Maresca was targeting several players to build the best squad and the owner is ready to provide a budget.

But what's the better thing to do next since they have not been able to get the right manager to restore back the teams glory, will they keep getting new managers every 3 months when the performance of the team is not getting better they sack them and employ another one, since the management has made Enzo Maresca as the new manager, I think they still need to consider getting a better striker to strengthen the performance of the team because last season Chelsea lost their form but they looked like they found it back before the end of the season but now that they have a new coach I think they need to give him time to revive the team and the players in it.

I have also read the news. To be honest, what is happening to Chelsea today is not a good situation and it will really affect their performance next season. It's more likely that Todd Boehly wants young players to develop into strong ones for the future.

Then Toddy shouldn’t blame coaches for Chelsea's poor performance. If he wants to transform the young players into strong ones, then it’s a matter of time, it’s not something that can be done within a short period of time. coach have to start building the team gradually, but it’s just annoying to see Chelsea management sacking coaches every season. If Toddy Boehly is trying to build the young players at Chelsea, then he should sign a well experienced coach, and the coach should be given time to do his work. Changing coaches frequently won’t solve their problems, it’s rather going to add to their problems.

Todd boehly shall blame himself regarding what happened in the blues. There were a lot of experienced coaches available, but Todd signed Maresca as a new coach for the club. As long as todd doesn't get too involved with his club, I don't see a problem with it. The main issue is that Todd boehly runs his club like a dictator. He never gave the coach time to fix up his team.
Todd has to be part of any talks about moving players. I had assumed that Todd would follow Abramovich's previous strategy, but in reality, Todd is even less patient than Abramovich.
If Todd keeps trying to get involved with their teams, Chelsea's problem will never be solved.

[klidex]

Well he is not the first to start the tradition because I think it's like a ritual with the owners of the club now and the previous owner @Roman abramovich even did worse as he frequently sacked coaches on a steady although his wasn't fixated on squandering money on buying big names but he did have his fare share of the Chelsea syndrome.

But in Roman Abramovic's era Chelsea became a very successful club in the Premier League and if I'm not mistaken during his 19 year leadership era at Chelsea the club was able to win 21 trophies and was always a regular at winning the Premier League title. For me, comparing him with the current Chelsea leader is very different, obviously Abramovic is smarter in managing management and the team, I don't agree if Todd Boehly is compared to Abramovic, Todd Boehly always makes quick and rash decisions, he really encourages management to recruit young players but without aware that Chelsea not only needs the support of young players but also requires good adaptation between coaches and players so that Chelsea can be successful again as a top club. If Todd Boehly continues to decide to change coaches every season, I doubt Chelsea will ever regain its glory.

Everything Todd Boehly does is just because he seems too enthusiastic and focused on the results he wants without looking at the process by which a team achieves success, it must take a long time and must also give trust to the coach to slowly get the key to improving the squad's performance.
Most Chelsea fans seem to hate the efforts made by Todd Boehly as if they don't know how to manage a team properly and always replacing the coach is just an instant way that Todd Boehly wants.

Bringing in Enzo Maresca to replace Pochettino for me was very sad because Pochettino had succeeded in bringing Chelsea to a safe finish this season but it had to end in disappointment for all fans.

But there are still many Chelsea fans who still believe after hearing Guardiola praise for Enzo Maresca.


“I feel it. Like I felt it when I saw Mikel Arteta I see it with Enzo, [he] will be an extraordinary manager and he helped to develop many, many young players.”

It as if when it comes to bringing in coach Chelsea don't plan well to know if the coach is capable of doing job, they just do try your luck I'm every coach they pick. I don't blame Todd Boehly for sacking is coach's because these coach's are not making any good improvements,  so I don't think their is any need of keeping coach's that is not transforming the performance. If Chelsea is trying to go for young players, it should be players that are talented with good experience, not just players that can't won't be able to make any effort. Chelsea needs to plan well, no good improvement for a very longtime.

[snipie]

When Todd sack a coach, he gives the impression that the coaches are the problem, but in reality it is not the coaches. This first started with Tomas Tuchel and many Chelsea fans were against Todd's decision. He repeated it with Pochettino and even many Chelsea fans didn't agree with his decision. However, when coaches are sacked, it is assumed that they didn't perform well and the coaches won't have anyway to defend themselves, unless for coaches like Mourinho who put clause of compensation in their contracts. We have nothing but to trust the management decision because they have the power to hire and fire, we are all spectators.

Whenever a team is failing while having many coaches in a couple of years then the fault is definitely not their or at least partially not their.
It is the same situation as Tottenham Hotspur and several other teams, they should focus on recruiting skillful players regardless of their age and names, basically following coaches need. Other than that they will keep turning in cercles..

So the issue is, how long? Todd gave Pochettino one season and then sacked him. What can we expect from Marisca? He arrived from Leicester City, which was returning to the EPL after being demoted during the 22/23 season. Too many trials and errors by Todd Boehly forced the club to constantly adjust to any strategy followed by the new coach. 
Maresca will most likely need more than one season to ensure his boys play cohesively. But, once again, there will be so many young stars to come, and Maresca's work is becoming increasingly difficult to perform. 
People applauded Maresca only because he has previously worked with Pep, but I don't see this as a good reason to consider him as a prospective coach.

Well the thing is that each team management has a standard they want there club to be which is why they decided to higher a certain coach hoping that he will be able to structure the club well but the moment they noticed that he is not capable of handling it they will not think twice but to sack him and go for more quality coach that would give them the kind of quality they need, this is actually the reasons why you will see most clubs always changing there coaches all the time because they have not really gotten what they want, though sometimes I wouldn't blame such clubs because they cannot be paying there coach such amounts and he is not able to effect positively on the club.

Also I agree with you that it will be more better if most clubs will focus on recruiting quality players instead of trying to economize there money in such a way that they will use the money they were supposed to buy one players for two or three young players, though sometimes is a good strategy because there are players that was signed very cheap but now they are actually worth a lot but however for a club that needs immediate growth using that strategy may not be wise.

This process must be carried out because if you wait then Chelsea will not be able to compete with several other strong teams. Forget last season and let the new coach carry out his duties as a coach and hopefully get support from the fans so that the coach can make big changes for Chelsea. Chelsea is not experiencing financial problems so it will make it easier for them to find the players they need, they just need to change the pattern of recruiting players so that they are more appropriate to what is needed.

Last season they spent a lot of money to recruit players but in my opinion it was not optimal because the price of the players recruited was too expensive but their individual playing form was far from expectations. The new coach's job is to try his best and try to make his players more consistent in facing the competition next season.

This is my question every time a lot of problems occur at a club, the coach will always be blamed, but don't we think about correcting the players who are playing, in fact, is it purely 100% the coach's fault or is it really the European players who are in trouble?  decline in performance, because what we know is that in the Euro, Copa America this season, many leading European and Latin American countries were able to be beaten by non-leading countries, and even many players from Asia and the Middle East were able to improve with their game and  even able to compete with European and Latin American players.  Of course there are many pros and cons to conditions like this when European players are declining in the quality of their game.

I think the Chelsea owner should be patient with the managers, if he believes that developing the players is simple, why can't he choose to train the players himself? Chelsea has the Premier League youngest squad and wants to win every trophy. If I am not wrong, I don't believe Chelsea has any players above the age of 30 in their current squad, they are only signing young players, and the management expects them to win trophies. In my opinion, this is why Manchester United did not fire Ten Hag, they are afraid of having a bad season like Chelsea.

However, despite how badly Manchester United performed last season but did not fire their coach, management is still pushing to offer Ten Hag a long term contract because they believe he will bring good outcomes to the club. Chelsea management must be patient with their managers, if you believe that the coaches they fired did not produce positive results for the club, I disagree because we saw how Pochettino turned things around at the end of last season, but Todd Boehly believes he is not capable of managing the club.

Ten Hag has an ace up his sleeve, no matter how bad United's seasons are, they get trophies, and I'm almost sure that if Pochettino had brought at least one trophy, he could have remained Chelsea coach. In addition to the fact that ten Hag was allowed to remain in the team, I see that Manchester United is also now trying to be very active in the transfer market, they are negotiating with Bayern regarding de Ligt, they are interested in the Girona defender, the PSG midfielder and the Roma striker, I mentioned this in general because this is for now which is only at the level of negotiations, but this shows that ten Hag received approval for additional transfers, which means the management trusts him.

This is exactly what the Chelsea management needs to understand: things cannot change for the better in a short period of time after experiencing bad performances for many seasons. They need to understand the coaches, but they just want to transform everything in a short period of time, which is impossible. Obviously, changing their manager all the time will not be a solution for them, and this can even ruin the players performances because they won’t be able to get used to one strategy of play. It will just be as if they are changing methods of play every season since they always change their coaches and every coach will come with different tactics, so keeping one manager will be better for Chelsea. 

[Texac]

Maresca is a newcomer to the Premier League, despite having previously worked with Pep in Manchester City. Maresca has never felt Pep's pressure as a manager of a big club like city. This is similar to when Chelsea decided to sign Potter from Brighton.
The quality for the Premier League is clearly greater than that of the Championship. I recall everyone hyping Burnley once they returned to the Premier League and went back to the Championship. The competition in the Premier League is extremely tough for a new coach coming from the Championship. 
I believe Maresca will not be at Chelsea for long, and he may face numerous challenges as a head coach. And, once again, Todd Boehly has burdened him with a large number of inexperienced young players.

Enzo Maresca is not new comer as Premier League manager team because had experienced when becoming Pep Guardiola assistant manager for Manchester City around two season.
He knows well with Premier League culture competition and his achievement this season promoting Leicester City back to Premier League show us about Enzo Maresca is most experienced tactician and become potential manager stop Pep Guardiola dominance in Premier League with Manchester City.

Get management support for signing any qualities players, I think Enzo Maresca has potential become next Pep Guardiola in Premier League bring Chelsea back to top fourth standings teams. Next season, Chelsea dominance by young players as Pochettino investment make easily for Enzo Maresca how to build his tactician and get potential for Chelsea reach the higher level performance.

Enzo Maresca definitely does have the potential to be a great coach. but he will need to be backed with a lot of money and support as well. Without these two things, hardly any coach will be able to survive, let alone show great performance in the English Premier League competition right now. We have even seen that the coaches who actually have good backings, not being able to bring in good performance.

I think it is a little too early to say that he is going to be the next Pep Guardiola. That is going to be putting an incredible amount of pressure on him. It is probably better to not get him under such pressure from this early. Let's just see how he starts with Chelsea.

It's too much to think of Enzo Maresca like that, in fact I think he will have the same fate as Mauricio Pochettino.
To be able to revive a team that has fallen is not an easy thing even though they have strong finances, especially as Enzo Maresca is not a coach who has a lot of experience handling top teams, so I don't think we need to have high expectations for Enzo Maresca.

Chelsea do have strong finances but look at their player purchases in the last few seasons, quite a lot of money has been spent on useless players so if they want to do the same to support Enzo Maresca then I think it would be a big gamble that would make it possible to suffered a much bigger loss to the team.

The Chelsea team had to be built through a long process, they are now different from before, so Chelsea management must be aware of this and forget that they can quickly recover with the money they have.

Chelsea owner should give around two season for new manager Enzo Maresca before sacking him such as did for Pochettino just giving one season only, its require how develop one team always need progress and time around one or two season later before sacking them as head coach position.
Chelsea dominance with many young players for next season after huge rotation did by Chelsea owner sell many senior players and replacing by young players haven't experienced for playing in Premier League as huge pressure competition.

Difference with Manchester United management have more patience waiting for with Erik ten Hag progress, have been second season and last season failure bring United to the top fourth standings but his position keep secure and the management extend his contract for next season. Chelsea's management must learned more with Manchester United management or Arsenal keep their manager more than two season improve the performance.

I don't know if Manchester United would benefit from adding players to the squad that Ten Hag likes. In the last two seasons Ten Hag have spent big to add Antony and Hojlund to the team. And we have yet to see a better performance from these two players. Manchester United has taken Antony 96 million and Hojlund 75 million in the squad.

Manchester United are looking to make several big moves next season. But whether these players can do well with United's squad with the help of Ten Hag remains to be seen. Ten Hag's match strategy is not good. He is somewhat monogamous. Ten Hag's relationship with the players is also not good. So I feel that despite spending a lot of money, we will not see the expected performance from Manchester United next season.

[Justbillywitt]

The new coach's job is to try his best and try to make his players more consistent in facing the competition next season.

The problem that the new coach is going to have is if those players that Chelsea bought last season don't fit into his plan. If they don't fit into his playing philosophy there is going to be a lot of problem for the club, because they have to offload them and bring in new players, and that's going to be a big loss for the club. Chelsea gave those players long contracts and if they are to leave Chelsea are going to lose big time because none of those players in Chelsea current squad can command the price they were bought in the transfer market. And of a truth the coach are going to bring in his players that he feels he will be comfortable with and most of the players that came into Chelsea last season are definitely going to leave or they will accept the bench duty.
