Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[ajiz138]

Pep Guardiola has a fairly important role in giving success to Man City and he is the best coach Man City has ever had. We can see this since his era as Man City coach and Man City's dominance is so difficult to break by any coach in England because of his ability to manage the team which is quite good. Rumors of his departure are also unclear because he still has a contract left with Man City and maybe he will consider accepting a new contract.

As long as Manchester City can continue to dominate the League through Pep Guardiola's coaching, of course the Manchester City team management will not immediately release Pep Guardiola after his contract expires because a new contract extension will be more likely to happen to Pep Guardiola if Manchester City can still produce its best achievements in its new season. And I still think that Manchester City can still be a candidate for champions next season even though there are many teams that have tried to block them since the beginning of the season.

Sometimes when everything has been achieved with Manchester City he can just leave it it is the right decision for him, he could be taking on a new challenge to handle the England national team because this national team squad has many Manchester City players at least he knows the character of the players who have been nurtured for a long time at his club it might happen what Pep Guardiola did.

To be asked for a decision now, of course Pep Guardiola will say no details considering he is more focused on the league than discussing this issue which is still a long time away, it is better to wait until the contract expires then he will decide for himself.

It looks like Arsenal has succeeded in bringing in another new player in the transfer market. And this time Arsenal brought in Riccardo Calafiori from Bologna. He is a defender who can be expected to strengthen Arsenal's back line. but currently Arsenal actually has quite a lot of quality defenders. So I started to question whose position would be threatened by the presence of Riccardo Calafiori in the Arsenal squad. But I received news that one of the current Arsenal players wants to go to Inter Milan. He is Jakub Kiwior. Because he seems to realize that his playing time next season with Arsenal could be reduced when Arsenal bring in new defenders. So if he wants to remain a player who gets a lot of playing time then he really has to start thinking about moving to a team that is ready to make him a main player and Inter Milan is reportedly the club that now wants this player.

Yes, maybe medical test done already. It is very easy to understand why Arsenal is able to bring in so many players. Actually so many good & decent players. That because the Gunners is performing well right now and the improvement is very visible. Arteta is literally completing against Manchester City for the English Premier League title. And that's why a lot of young players are very interested in going to Emirates Stadium. They also understand that going to Arsenal is also going to give them a better chance to  get a good playing time instead of them going to some other team like Manchester City. Because Arsenal need to have depth in the squad. I think Riccardo Calafiori is going to be a good edition for Arsenal squad, he is a decent Defender with good physical structure. Calafiori is also only 22 years old. So there is a very big chance that he is going to spend his prime time with Arsenal. I will say good decision by Arteta.

A few days ago Pep Guardiola stated that he was closer to leaving than staying is this a code that Pep Guardiola will not extend his contract and will leave Man City next season?

Pep Guardiola is just waiting for the outcome of the charges laid against Manchester City, if they didn't succeed I am very sure he will leave the team which can be a good reason why he is yet to renew his current contract. Nevertheless, I will want him to stay to keep given the EPL the competition it needs because if he leaves now, it can be less competitive unless if other managers do well to keep the competition.

Pep is a tactical man, not only in football but also in behaviour and speech. You cannot hold him accountable from his speech. His speech only means that what he has stayed in Manchester city so far will be longer than what he will have to stay again. This means he is free to stay for 3 more seasons and it also means he can leave next month. He is not a gentleman like Klopp who gave Liverpool hint on time and enable them to find a good replacement.

Relating Pep's future in Manchester city to the litigations of Manchester city, Pep once said that even if Manchester city is sent to championship, that he'll go there with them. I know it is a mere statement, so he can still change his mind.

Personal agreement already met between Arsenal and Bologna, but the Bologna team said they are still on paper work, the plain was delayed for almost two times, but I think the paper work will now be complete if the news you bring here is legit concerning god flight to London for medical.

Arteta wants to make Arsenal defense very solid to the extent that the number of goals they will concede per season will not be a double figure; we have seen how last season ended as Arsenal is the team that conceded less goals in all the Premier League last season.
I want Arteta to remember our lack of reliable striker; we need a striker that can score more than twenty goals per season, and an injury free striker that can win us title because we fans have seen the impact of a great striker as we lost last two league titles due to lack good and reliable striker.

So if he wants to remain a player who gets a lot of playing time then he really has to start thinking about moving to a team that is ready to make him a main player and Inter Milan is reportedly the club that now wants this player.

The arrival of Riccardo Calafiori will certainly increase competition in the defensive area, he who has been Bologna mainstay will certainly try to secure a place in Arsenal main squad. His presence will certainly threaten Kiwior's position, his chances of playing in the first team will be reduced and leaving temporarily would be the best solution for him. Inter Milan are very serious about showing their interest in Kiwior, Simone Inzaghi really wants Kiwior to strengthen his defense ahead of the new season.

Arsenal will release Kiwior on loan, the decision is very good and as a future investment, if he performs impressively with Inter Milan, Arsenal can increase his selling value to clubs who want to recruit him permanently. Arsenal continues to move to bring in new players to replace the quality of their squad, the failure to win the EPL trophy last season was the most valuable experience for them and improving the quality of the squad is the solution to make up for last season's mistakes.

I'm starting to like how the Arsenal club is slowly continuing to improve the quality of their squad. Every season we can always see clear developments in the depth of the Arsenal squad. And the quality of their play every season always improves quite rapidly. All of this is thanks to their talented young coach, Arteta, and also because of the support of the club who always trusts Arteta in the process of forming the Arsenal squad slowly from season to season. Maybe this season Arsenal will only add a few new players because they already have quite good squad depth. And I think that's enough. And yes, lending Jakub Kiwior could indeed be a good option. But I read the news that Arsenal seems to prefer to let him go rather than loan him out. But I don't know what the next development will be. However, Inter Milan seems to prefer to borrow him.

Pep Guardiola has to be one of the most intelligent managers of the modern day football if you ask me and that's because of how he manages to handle questions thrown at him by the media. When I read his recent interview where he suggested that he might extend his contract at Manchester City contrary to what many people in the media thinks of him, my respect for the Spanish manager increased the more. His statement in may that he was closer to leaving was misconstrued by the press which is why he had to explain it in his recent interview.
Though he had in the past said he'll remain with Manchester City regardless of the outcome of financial charges against the club I think weren't serious statements because I don't see a Pep Guardiola managing a club that's not participating in the top flight

Pep Guardiola's future is always an interesting question, in fact he recently spoke something about his future at the club. Pep Guardiola has almost reached a decade as Manchester City coach and he has won 6 Premier League titles in 8 seasons and 1 Champions League. Pep Guardiola is expected to retire at Manchester City, but this may never happen if Pep Guardiola has the desire to coach the national team or any team after his contract ends. Pep Guardiola said something during the press conference, if you are interested you can find it here:

“I did not rule it out to extend the contract. I would love to stay because I would love to stay,” he said.

Chelsea vs Celtic
Club Friendlies

Chelsea has set it squad to face Celtic today and the match will be interesting and I am expecting Chelsea to win this match because this should be a work over foe them.

Chelsea has a good squad in the game though Celtic squad is also gallant. Let see how this Friendlies Match will go.

Both Pep and Kloop has done very well in the Premier League, their competition for the title was one of the reasons why the Premier League is still the toughest League in the world, but before Kloop left, Arteta joined the race to another top competator for Pep Guardiola which has kept their mandate of the Premier League till date.

I don't think Guardiola will be interested with any national team job, because he said that he cannot be able to sign players he want which means he will be only limited to the players in that country.

Pep Guardiola has a point by saying that, he will definitely be limited to signing players and have to work with the players from the country regardless of how their performance is. This could cause serious challenge to him and could also add a negative record to his career. He is a very good coach and wouldn’t want what he has fought for all his life to just be attached to something not nice to hear. I have strong believe in him that when he joins and club and they’re able to provide him with the right finances needed to deliver a job, he’ll definitely try his best to make the team great.

Pep Guardiola is just waiting for the outcome of the charges laid against Manchester City, if they didn't succeed I am very sure he will leave the team which can be a good reason why he is yet to renew his current contract. Nevertheless, I will want him to stay to keep given the EPL the competition it needs because if he leaves now, it can be less competitive unless if other managers do well to keep the competition.

You could be right and that could be the reason why he hasn’t been straightforward about his next decision on his managerial role in Manchester City. Managing a team facing those series of challenges could be difficult for him, so he’ll rather leave the club and join another one. Even through he leaves, I don’t think the tough competition in the premier league will be reduced, it’ll still be as competitive as always.

I thought this deal had already been completed. The Bologna player (Calafiori) has been undergoing medical and by now I expected he would have given his complete speech and jersey number. However, it is obvious that Arsenal has signed a new player. Which means there is better hope for them. The fans would believe that every signing since the last two seasons for Arsenal turned out well.

This is one of Arteta's strategies. Conceding fewer goals in every game. What he expects is to win the match, even if it's one goal difference. He is more concerned about the 3 points and not goal difference to win the EPL title.

Maybe I missed the information, regarding Pep Guardiola's demands to his club. but if we talk about Pep's recent statement, from my point of view, Pep can leave as he said. but he did not rule out signing a new contract with City, maybe he can extend one or two seasons ahead. the point is, Pep will not continue to handle City. as reported by Romano, Pep said that after eight years with City, he will not stay for the next eight years. besides, there is nothing wrong with his statement. if Pep stays with City for a long time, it is his decision even though he previously said closer to leaving.

Well, we agree that Pep Guardiola is a manager who has a myriad of tactics and strategies. that is why, he has brought City to become one of the strongest teams in the Premier League and also the Champions League. despite the fact that City is a rich club, Pep Guardiola's performance cannot be ignored because he always does his best. he is a manager who is not satisfied if his team wins but performs badly, that is why the players are always required to perform optimally. Pep is a coach I admire, even though I am not a supporter of The Citizen.

It seems that Unai Emery is busy preparing Aston Villa for the upcoming Uefa Champions League and English Premier League as he has been very active in the transfer market. Even though a lot of new players will be joining Aston Villa but a few key players have also left the team through the transfer market and I wonder if Aston Villa are still able to keep up their excellent form last season. I guess the real big test for Aston Villa will be coming soon once they start their Uefa Champions League journey by playing against other top European football clubs and I hope they could at least progress to the round of 16.

The answer is yes, because Aston Villa have found an equal replacement and Unai Emery's observation is no doubt for the readiness of his squad for next season. Both the EPL and the champions league will remain high standards for him and Unai Emery does not want to lower his standards and wants more than what he achieved last season.

The problem of challenges will certainly always surround him and I think with everything he got in the summer it should not be a hindrance and instead make it easier for him to play every match in different competitions. I don't want to expect too much for the champions league and as long as they are not in the group of death with other strong teams then their path will be easy to the next round.

Aston Villa has signed 8 players so far. I think they’re the only club to have spend more on signings in the EPL in the current transfer window. Emery is building a team that can compete in all fronts. He’s been given all enough funds to spend considering their qualification to the UCL. The recruitments they have made so far are good. Good ages and the right experiences. That’s exactly what is needed considering the fact that they’ll be participating in a lot of competitions next season.

Emery has been there before, he knows European football so I think he’ll manage the team well and retain their spot in the league table to make the UCL qualification another season. With the way they’re strengthening their squad, I tip them to make the top 4 next season.

Maintaining Balance would obviously be key during these times, the good thing about Unai Emery is that, he has enough experience of what it means to be in the Champions League and at the same time in the Premier League Competition. He one time managed Arsenal in the Premier League Competition and also he would do same thing for Aston Villa.

I don't know what it'll be like for them at the end of next season but it all depends on the sqaud depth available. hopefully, they're not affected with a lot of players Injured due to too many games.
The Champions League Competition would be great to have them, if my brain serves me right, then I believe they're also one time Champions League winners.

Manchester City knows without Guardiola is not strong anymore. Manchester City lost many players but still had good performances in the last season and this team thanks to Guardiola could win the Premier League while other teams like Arsenal had good performances so far in the games we saw from them,
However, recently Guardiola showed the green light and said he is going to stay in Manchester City for a longer time.

Pep is like the bed rock that Manchester city is resting on pep and from the tweet pep made did not make anything clear, and from that tweet again I don’t think, pep will leave Manchester city for now and even if is contract expires next year am very sure it is going to be renewed because their is an understanding already between pep and the players and if pep should leave then the players, we have to start learning new things and it will affect them because of their new coach, will come with is new way of coaching. And gradually Manchester city is becoming the king of premier league and just the way Real Madrid are dominating champions league, the same thing Manchester is also doing dominating the premier league.

Pep still hasn't budged on the discussion of his future because as long as his contract is still at Manchester City, it is certain that he will remain focused at least until next season end .   Although on several occasions we can see Manchester City has given a nod to a contract extension but Pep still doesn't want to discuss this too far it seems .

For the England national team there is indeed a good hope if in the end Pep accepts this as a job but indeed seeing the current conditions I actually doubt if Pep will accept a proposal from the England National Team. There are several reasons I can see for this and the main issue is nationality. I'm not sure Pep wants to accept a proposal from a national team that is not his own country even though Pep certainly knows England more because he has been in the EPL for more than half a decade but still defending a club in the EPL and defending the national team is clearly a different thing and im not sure he accepts because after all when he is in the national team he must be prepared for all conditions including against his own country later .

Apparently on the basis that he was misunderstood and there were thoughts that he might be called to coach the England national team. Although these rumours are still going around, there could be offers of this kind, but I'm not sure he would want to leave Manchester City to coach the national team, I think he's someone who needs games all the time, not just once every few months

His speech only means that what he has stayed in Manchester city so far will be longer than what he will have to stay again. This means he is free to stay for 3 more seasons and it also means he can leave next month. He is not a gentleman like Klopp who gave Liverpool hint on time and enable them to find a good replacement.

Gardiola doesn't seem to be leaving Manchester City any moment soon so long as they keep dominating the English Premier League, he's one manager that loves dominance in any league he finds himself and immediately a huge rival is taking over his dominance he immediately takes the exit door, he did that in Laliga. However, if he's to leave then it's proper he inform his employers ahead of time to find a much capable manager not necessarily like him but someone who have the ability and talent to manage the team, and this can be done when he Gardiola informs the club ahead of time if he should have intention of leaving. I feel that's the right way to leave honorably as a legendary coach.

Keeping the competition isn't the sole responsibility of PEP, I fact others are even the reason it appears like there's a competition in the league, not just PEP. If other coaches aren't putting the effort then it will be a case of one team dominating and the competition wouldn't be found there again but in this case, both Pep and other coaches are trying to equate their strength and others don't want to stop at equating but getting ahead a d that has even led to the sustained competition in the league so far. If there's one thing I know about Pep is his logical technicality he literally adds to everything he does a d this includes both his speaches, actions and even coaching techniques, so there are times his statements aren't conveying a literal meaning so taking it as such may be you getting it wrong totally and I think this is One of those his technically logics which shouldn't be considered in the literal sense.
