Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Promocodeudo]

You are right here, throughout the past three seasons we have seen good performances from Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City fighting to finish first in the English premier league and Manchester City has been the victorious one. This new season I still have much expectation from Liverpool and Arsenal to seize the opportunity and take the title from Manchester City.

It would not be fun anymore since only one team has been on top for the past three years without even a break of at least one year. My favorite pick for the upcoming season remains Arsenal. They have played so well for two seasons and they deserve a trophy.

I have my doubts about Liverpool because a change of manager can have a significant impact on the team, so there are doubts there. But Arteta can try to achieve his goal of winning the Premier League, Arsenal spent the last season very well, according to statistical indicators they were the best in the league and they lacked just a little. For me, Arsenal is still City's most real competitor, which has a chance to take away their title and break their dominance in the Premier League.

I agree with you on this, sometimes it takes time for a football club to adapt to a new coaching style of a new manager, I think Liverpool may find it very difficult to scale through next season, although we know them to be a good team, however, lets see how events unfold now that a new manager is fully in charge of the team, as for arteta, i think he is a good manager, his team performance last season was good despite that they were unable to win the trophy, Arsenal will have to figure out how to maintian their lead once they are toping the league table in other to win the English premiweship title, although we can't dispute the fact that as far as the English premier League is concern, Arsenal remains one of the major contenders in the league but in as much as we don't know who will lift the trophy next season, I still beleive that Manchester city is the best team in the English premier League and can still win the trophy again this time unless arsenal will have to prove that fact otherwise next season.

Today there will be a pre-season match for Manchester United who will face a team from Norway, namely Rosenberg. Surely this will be a test match for Erik Ten Hag's strategy before the EPL starts again in August. Maybe Erik ten Hag will try some new things like rotating players or something else and also yesterday we saw that Sancho, who returned to training, might also be used.

On the other hand, Joshua Zirkhee will definitely also be involved and even though he has just been announced, we certainly can't wait to see his performance with Manchester United. Apart from all that, I think whoever wins will have no influence and the most important thing is that both teams can compete tactically in this match.

Rosenborg Football team won the match against Man United football team.  Match was fighting and both teams gave their hundred percent to win the match. N. E. J. Holm  was a top performer of the match because he did single goal of the game and no one could goal after the first goal.  Match was performed in Lerkendal Stadion stadium and that stadium was lucky for Rosenborg team.  Many Man United fans expected that they will win this match but that was only expectation and that was not reality. The stat of Rosenborg team was more stronger than Manchester United team and Rosenborg team played 22 shots in the match from which  7 were on target and that possession percentage of Rosenborg was also high and that was 55 percent. The were best in all things and that's why they are winners of the match and  Man United are loser of this match.

Pre-season games usually don't have any motivation for the top clubs to win the game. Yes, I agree that in this match both teams gave one hundred percent of their abilities. But this is not the first time a top team from the English league has lost to a mediocre team. I think Manchester United really made this a game to test a lot of different tactics. Rosenborg scored a goal late in the game so I think both teams played very well. But a defeat is still a defeat and Ten Hag also said that this was not the performance United should have.

I am happy that bitLeap came in swiftly in the ongoing discussion. LUCKYMCFLY and the other had believed that Slot is gonna take up the energies of Klopp. Things are not always like that, even if Slot and Klopp share similar ideology they are still different personalities. The worst mistake slot will make in Liverpool is building on the legacies and ideologies of Jürgen Klopp. He must have to develop his own strategies and enconcate same into the boys. It is better that Liverpool fans do not have high hopes, they should not expect the continue with the momentum of Klopp. Even if the best coach in the world has to take over from club, there must still be some lapses that will be fixed in few seasons and not automatically.

Also Liverpool management should learn to trust their new coach and give him sometime to adapt just like as Arsenal did to Arteta. If they expect him to perform miracle, he will definitely not perform that miracle and if he is eventually dismissed, I am afraid that Liverpool will have to face the same fate as Manchester United since ever Alex Ferguson left as the head coach.

Of course, even though there is a similar vision between Klopp and Arne Slot, there still has to be something that is characteristic of Arne Slot and that will definitely happen. You are right that everything has changed for any club that wants to develop, they must be able to keep up with the times where today football has a more modern format. For this reason, Arne Slot is required to provide a different atmosphere as well as continuing Jurgen Klopp legacy.

If you look at Arsenal now, Arteta has shown many new things because he is truly fully supported by Arsenal management to manage the team according to Arteta principles. So Liverpool must be able to fully trust Arne Slot, apart from the first season, we will still be waiting for what kind of breakthrough Arne Slot will show to all Liverpool fans.

Anxiety over the fate of Man United will be a reflection for the top teams in the EPL, after Sir Alex legacy does not seem to leave any legacy. There were serious problems starting from the players, coaches and management within it. Hopefully Liverpool will not suffer the same fate, as long as they stick to the club's principles and philosophy, whoever the coach will show the same characteristics.

It's quite unfortunate that Man United is not really serious in pursuing Amadou Onana and it is very likely that the player will soon join Aston Villa. To be honest, I really hope that Man United can sign the Belgian defensive midfielder because Onana will not only make Man United stronger next season, but the player has the characteristics of a tough water carrier that Man United has not had for a long time. Apart from that, there is another effect if Amadou Onana joins Aston Villa (or another team), which will make Everton even more reluctant to let Jarrad Branthwaite go.

You're obviously reading and accepting all you see online ( X I believe. ). Amadou Onana I'll say is no bad player, but Manchester United making moves for him wouldn't happen. Like I normally say, playing for Manchester United has got to do with a whole lot, you need more than skill, you need to have both personality and character, likewise high standards, you need to set your standards high even before you can play for a top club like Manchester United. Manchester United never made approach for him in between.

If Man United has made a lot of improvements I believe their performance will improve but if they keep the existing players like last season I'm not sure Man United will perform well next season (IMO).

Jonathan Tah? He is strongly linked with a move to Bayern Munich. He wants Bayern Munich and they want him as well, all Manchester United did was to inquire about the player, no further advances has been made for him. He was part of the players that helped Bayern Leverkusen win the Bundesliga League Competition last season. I haven't watched him closely so I cannot say what I don't know. I agree with you, Erik Ten Hag needs a strong base to thrive, it was key to success in his first season for the red devils ( Manchester United )

They're already having medicals for Yoro today.... God knows how strong Manchester United will be if they partner Yoro and Lisandro Martinez together. Furthermore, De Ligt is another name to be signed after this deal for Yoro has been finalized.

Finally Manchester United will also see Victor Lindelof and Aaron Wan Bisakka leaving for both West Ham United and Fenerbache.

[LUCKMCFLY]

And besides, the opponents are not very good, to say the least. These matches will really show nothing, except to calm down MU fans for a while, but nothing more than that. When the season starts, they may start showing terrible results again. Besides, they may do well in the first half of the season but completely fail in the second half, there's no guessing, and all the responsibility will still fall on Ten Hag's shoulders.

These matches are very deceptive, that is like the friendlies that the South American teams show before the qualifiers, they never show what they have, they only show it in official matches, in the case of MU they belong to a league that is the most demanding in the world so far, so these matches are useful for the players to get to the level, understand each other ,  be able to try strategies, see how the top teams are, if it is worth it or not, these are the things that help.

Manchester United’s Erik Ten Hag Fumes After Loss to Norwegian Team in Preseason

After the game, Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag savaged his club for its lackadaisical performance. "The result is not secondary. We play pre-season but at Manchester United, there's a standard," Ten Hag said postgame via Sky Sports. "You win games. Definitely you don't lose games. If you can't win, don't lose the game as we did at the end, the last second of the game." Rosenborg outshot Ten Hag's team 22–5, allowing Manchester United goalie Radek Vitek to make six saves.

Of course, even though there is a similar vision between Klopp and Arne Slot, there still has to be something that is characteristic of Arne Slot and that will definitely happen.

And for me this is what will make the team initially unite and take Slot with a lot of respect, because they already come with a job done, with a marked trajectory, and making corrections to the vulnerabilities they had previously, Liverpool seems to me to have a lot of potential if Slot knows how to exploit it.

I don't think much problem with bad result of Manchester United pre season match after defeating by Rosenborg B.K because most of youth players, Erik ten Hag would give more minute playing for young players and combined with any senior players such as Casemiro, Mason Mount and Marcus Rshford.
Manchester United's tactician Erik ten Hag not priority with winning result on pre season match, he want see which one any young potential players promote to senior team next season and he want see new players will adapt well with his tactician or not.

After facing Rosenborg B.K, three days later Manchester United have second pre season match against Ranger and I think Erik ten Hag will give more minutes playing for young players and not priority must win on pre season match.

Pre-season matches are more accurately described as an opportunity for young players to show their talents. Those who are given the trust of the coach to take part in the tour before the league starts will try to give their best performance to get the opportunity to play in the first team. Match results are not the main motivation for big clubs because the quality of the players fielded is very different from senior players. This defeat also became a consideration for Ten Hag in formulating a strategy when the season started, now he is free to experiment to find the best strategy that can be applied in official matches.

The players are also a consideration for the coach, there will be an evaluation if their performance does not improve. Ten Hag must focus more on the unity of the players to get maximum results, last season's failure is a valuable lesson for him in order to look forward to a better season.

Manchester United's performance was not at all acceptable, as they lost the match against Rosenborg's team. Although this game was expected by most people to be won by Manchester United, the result was United losing by one goal. At present, with the performance that Manchester United is going forward with, it is never possible to be in the last position in the English league. Although Rosenberg had the ball most of the time, and they attacked strongly, Manchester United could not suppress this attack and instead conceded a goal and lost the match. If Manchester United plays with such a result this season, surely they will not be able to occupy a good position in the points table, but they need to improve their game, and build a good squad.

THIS! This will be the transfer that will make Manchester United a much better team, a team that could be in top four for a while, a position that they really need with the amount of money they are spending. This club once was among the highest income clubs of the world, and they screwed it up by being not so great, they need to get back there, and their defense is their biggest issue right now.

I understand that they bought Zirkee, but Hojlund wasn't that bad, whereas they lost Varane, and they still pray to god that Maguire plays decent whenever he gets the chance. They should have fired/sold Maguire already, and yet instead of doing that, they are still giving him some time, that is just not normal.

I believe that the best United can do right now would be buying defenders like that, Tah is a great defender and he will definitely help United concede much less goals, Onana probably won't be as bad as last season neither, so combine those will make a good return. This of course will cost a lot of money, and they already spend a lot, so spending a ton on yet another player will be a trouble for them, but this will be worth it, I mean I would sell Antony and put whatever I made from that into this transfer.

Obviously, it was a friendly match, and it was not taken too seriously. But looking at the Manchester United team, truly i don't know what i can say because am still having this feeling that the upcoming season would be hell for them. They took all the energy and time that was supposed to be used to sign new players to get a new coach. I wonder if the coach has to be the one to play the ball int the field. The news to sign a supportive striker has not come to a conclusion. And we have only few days for the transfer window to close then the new season begins soon. Am kinda speechless here.

After facing Rosenborg B.K, three days later Manchester United have second pre season match against Ranger and I think Erik ten Hag will give more minutes playing for young players and not priority must win on pre season match.

In addition to providing opportunities for young players to play, Erik ten Hag also anticipates injuries to players in the main squad. Therefore, very often we get that the results in pre-season matches or in friendly matches like this have results that should not happen. For example, a mediocre team managed to beat a top team, and with this factor, of course, every bettor will also be very careful and even avoid betting on events like this.

But indeed, not only about the top team v the mediocre team because sometimes, when the top team v the top team in pre-season matches like this, usually the team that has a level above average will also not play optimally. Therefore, it seems that matches like this are also just to get income from broadcasts or other things, but not to really test their strategies for the league next season.

[Luzin]

And we have only few days for the transfer window to close then the new season begins soon. Am kinda speechless here.

If I'm not mistaken, the EPL transfer ends on September 2. So there are almost 1.5 months of the transfer period, Man United still have time to find a new midfielder and defender. I think believing in Maguire is not wrong but I think it is ineffective. At least Ten Hag should have better defender options.
Man United must take advantage of the transfer fee time if they want to compete next season. Reportedly they are interested in Jonathan Tah from Leverkusen for 30 million euros. They also bought 18-year-old defender Leny Yoro from France playing for Lille.

The pre-season league or friendlies are nothing but a means for the coach to evaluate and also experiment with the squad they have at the moment, but if we look at who they are facing should be a shame for Manchester United at the moment, honestly before I thought the club was from the German second tier league but after I did a search on the goggle it turned out that Rosenborg is a mediocre club from Norway,  the defeat should be an evaluation for Ten Hag to be able to improve the quality and performance of their game later even though they in that match relied on young players and second-tier players in last season, but they should be able to at least get a victory from a team like Rosenborg considering that the quality of Manchester United players is still better than that owned by Rosenborg.
Currently, ten hag has a lot of work that must be fixed immediately in order to compete next season in the league, even though the match is only a friendly match, but it can actually be a benchmark for us to see how good the strategy and game technique applied by ten hag.

You have mad a good point but keeping the players wouldn't necessarily cause them not to getting any better this new season, rather if they resolve the issues on ground a s it has to do with strategies, tactics and coach players relationship, then its very possible they can begin to get some gradual improvement such that before the end of the season, they will be able to have made good results. The teams depth isn't really bad except for their defense line where they have got to make a few changes and try to strengthen it then they can be sure with the right combinations at the Frontline especially the strikers they have a chance to do much better this season.

I don't think keeping the same players of last season will stop Manchester United from improving with their performances because these same players are quality footballers who are obviously not playing at the peak of their strength. I don't know if you noticed how Jadon Sancho improved significantly from what we were seeing at Manchester United immediately he rejoined Borussia Dortmund on loan last season. Personally, I feel Manchester United's problem is majorly tactical and not the players abilities which is why the club can perform better than we've seen in recent years of the club manager Erik ten Hag can introduce a style of football that'll bring out the best from the club players. There's been some additions to the team and I believe they'll improve next season.

[Sexylizzy2813]

With this news about the Argentina players on the racial abuse, I think Chelsea need to take drastic action on Enzo Fernandez's act very serious because from all he said he's against it but my concern is why involve yourself on something you say you speak against? If FIFA is going or planning on what action to take on the whole Argentina squad I think each club that have all the Argentina players should punish them for that act. With the heat going on at Chelsea since this issue came up some players have unfollowed Enzo concerning the matter at hand and I think the dressing room of the Blues is not going to be as happy and united as it was, it would be worse if he returns to the club that's if he hasn't. To me I Enzo should be punished by the club while he await what FIFA has to say to the entire squad of Argentina.

And what coach is that ? I believe Manchester united still retain ten hag as their coach despite all the rumors and threat about his sack during the end period of the season but all that changed when he actually won the FA cup for them.  But for the Rosenberg game, I don't think I would hold that performance as anything because most at time these friendly aren't really the form that the club will stride into when the major league itself kicks off.

[RockBell]

I agree with you on this, sometimes it takes time for a football club to adapt to a new coaching style of a new manager, I think Liverpool may find it very difficult to scale through next season, although we know them to be a good team, however, lets see how events unfold now that a new manager is fully in charge of the team, as for arteta, i think he is a good manager, his team performance last season was good despite that they were unable to win the trophy, Arsenal will have to figure out how to maintian their lead once they are toping the league table in other to win the English premiweship title, although we can't dispute the fact that as far as the English premier League is concern, Arsenal remains one of the major contenders in the league but in as much as we don't know who will lift the trophy next season, I still beleive that Manchester city is the best team in the English premier League and can still win the trophy again this time unless arsenal will have to prove that fact otherwise next season.

Everyone have their system of coaching and the team have to learn to follow the new coaching strategy that the new coach is coming with. The case of Liverpool and Chelsea its going to be difficult one for them next season since they are adopting new way of playing it will take a little time for them to fully master the new way of playing. Sometimes it is usually not that way because with a new coach they might become more on fire and it will be difficult to quench because i remembered then when we got a new coach that is when our game changed and am talking about arsenal and sincerely arteta have been an amazing coach to us. Arsenal actually struggled but they are still in the process of regaining balance and I just have a strong belief that we are going to do better. Anyone can top the table the most important things is winning the trophy which my hope is been restored that we can win it, arteta just needs be serious with our signings and from their we can make good advances. Everything is going to be a plus very soon, I trust arsenal that much.
