Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Out of the 3 new promoted teams into the English Premier League, Ipswich Town has spent the most money in the transfer market to bolster up their squad currently. I think Ipswich Town might be one of the black horse to look for once the English Premier League season starts as they only lost 6 games in the English Championship League last season after 46 games played and they are the only team with the least losses among 24 teams on the table.

I think Ipswich Town might be one of the black horse to look for once the English Premier League season starts as they only lost 6 games in the English Championship League last season after 46 games played and they are the only team with the least losses among 24 teams on the table.

Ipswich Town have been very active in the transfer market this season. And I think they don't want to fall into the relegation zone again. They strengthen their squad to stay in the Premier League. Ipswich Town's performance in the Championship was quite good. And now they continue to try to strengthen their squad.

Ipswich Town have already spent 72.99 million on signing new players. This club is not a rich club. Still they are trying their best to strengthen the squad.

• Ipswich spent £23.5m to sign Chelsea youngster Omari Hutchinson to the squad.
• Ipswich have added Liam Delap to the squad for £17.85m to bolster their attack.
• But the interesting fact is that Ipswich spent 21.5 million to add defender Jacob Greaves to the squad. Usually teams like Ipswich don't spend that much money to strengthen the defence.

Most of the players in Ipswich's squad are young. Ipswich is trying to build a squad based on youth. The fitness of the players is good enough and also the players are confident. So I guess Ipswich Town will stay out of the relegation zone next season.

To be honest, I don't expect anything better from the Chelsea team next season. My guess is Chelsea will be in the top 10 of the points table. However, the team will not be able to qualify for the Champions League or the Europa League.

Chelsea have won only the match against Club America out of three friendly matches. Chelsea won this match 3-0. But Chelsea could not win the match against Wrexham. Chelsea even lost 4-1 against Celtic. From this it can be assumed that the Chelsea team is not in a good rhythm this season. It is much more difficult to consistently perform well against the strong teams in the Premier League. I don't think Chelsea players will be able to consistently perform well in Premier League matches.

If the Chelsea management had not changed their coach this season, maybe we would have seen a better performance from Chelsea. Because we saw consistently good performances from Chelsea players in the last few matches of the previous season.

since changing the owners Chelsea's performance not so prominent compared with previous owner, I don't know what the problem is, but as far as i can see Chelsea experienced significant changes, and they have a hard time competing with top club on premier league. they are look like lost the leadership which made them successful as before. Yes it is almost the same like Manchester United who has since been left Alex Fergusen experiencing the worst times in their history. Maybe their fate will be the same with this session if they don't full changed their formation team.

Ipswich Town have been very active in the transfer market this season. And I think they don't want to fall into the relegation zone again.

No club want to drop to a lower league tier again after ranking up and Ipswich Town are doing everything they can in preparation for a new season with aim to stay in Premier League at the end of season.

They strengthen their squad to stay in the Premier League. Ipswich Town's performance in the Championship was quite good. And now they continue to try to strengthen their squad.

Ipswich Town have already spent 72.99 million on signing new players. This club is not a rich club. Still they are trying their best to strengthen the squad.

They are doing a lot, spending a lot of money and all of these activities recently are to help them staying in Premier League. They are aware that Premier League is more difficult than Championship and know that if they are not well prepared, they will be demoted to Championship again.

• Ipswich spent £23.5m to sign Chelsea youngster Omari Hutchinson to the squad.
• Ipswich have added Liam Delap to the squad for £17.85m to bolster their attack.

Does Ipswich over spend money for these young players?

Their quality will need to be verified in a new season and even they are good season, Ipswich Town will have challenge to combine them into their squad. It's not easy task to help many new players to adapt to a new club, new teammates, new coach and tactics. Ipswich Town shows their efforts to prepare well for a new season but they have to solve many things in a coming season, to perform well and win against other clubs to stay in Premier League.

Obviously, Chelsea can't finish in the top 4 in the upcoming season. It's too good to be true. I think Chelsea will fight against relegation, not for a top 4 spot. The pre-game result is enough to judge Chelsea's EPL performance soon.
Chelsea was losing Silva, then this time Gallagher. Almost no experienced players in the club so far. It's also very obvious Chelsea is not even ready to face the pressure in the EPL soon.

I also think that Chelsea will still find it quite difficult to reach the top four next season with the current squad condition, but on the other hand I also don't think Chelsea will fight to avoid relegation because Chelsea will definitely be able to save themselves in the middle of the table like in the top ten or below next season. In addition, the Premier League which is still known for its strong competition from every opponent can also benefit a team like Chelsea because after all Chelsea is not the worst team in the Premier League.

A bit surprised to see how Ipswich is really active in the summer window. Very nice to see Ipswich get some depth in at good value. I'm keen to see for a couple more big transfers in the next week though. We're still a few weeks away from the end of the summer window, and that's enough time to add more depth to Ipswich's squad.
Two days ago, Ipswich announced their sixth new signing, Conor Townsend. That looks impressive. It seems Ipswich is strengthening its squad. Their main goal is to stay in the EPL.



But we can't use Ipswich's Championship performance to guess their EPL form. For example, Burnley had a perfect season under Kompany. They were promoted to the EPL but were relegated back to the Championship.
Hopefully, Ipswich will manage to stay in the EPL much longer.

you are right Ever since the change of ownership, the Chelsea team has started to perform poorly. And because of various bad decisions of the management, we see such a plight of Chelsea. Chelsea management is very inexperienced.

Chelsea have changed coaches several times in the last few seasons. Chelsea management is not keen to be patient. They want results very quickly. Quick results are never possible in football. I don't know why Thomas Tuchel was fired. Chelsea management may have forgotten that Tuchel helped them win the Champions League. However, Tuchel was sacked. Chelsea management changed coach 5 times after sacking Tuchel. But still no benefit is seen. Chelsea's performance has worsened by the day.

Chelsea's overall performance stabilized under Pochettino last season. But at the end of the season Chelsea management decided to sack coach Poch as well. I don't understand what the Chelsea management really want.

Chelsea is indeed doubtful to reach the top four next season, but I see them having the same chance as other teams, especially Chelsea who have completed their new players in this transfer, of course they have a good squad and also young players who are full of ambition, seeing them in the current preseason of course this is not a trophy event for them, especially their coach is eyeing mature players to make them the main squad, especially with the many players Chelsea currently has, of course the coach must be able to choose the 11 best players according to him, so it is not good to judge this player or team only in the preseason.

Of course with their new coach Chelsea will compete to get the best place, I am quite sure they will enter the top 5 next season, pressure from the club leadership also makes them have to work optimally to be the best so I think Enzo Maresca will succeed in bringing Chelsea into the top 4 next season.

It's hard to say what Chelsea are capable of with Maresca until the season starts, but I don't see how they can fight for the Champions League zone. The team has progressed with Pochettino, and if he had stayed as coach, I would have expected Chelsea to be able to do it, but Maresca is changing everything at his own discretion again and I can't imagine what Chelsea can be like, but for now I find it hard to believe that they will be able to fight with the teams from the top of the table.

It seems like there is nothing wrong with the Chelsea squad which is made up of mostly young players and of course they will just need time to develop, currently a lot of criticism continues to attack Maresca after Chelsea poor performance in several friendly matches, I think what happened to Maresca and Chelsea is currently still very reasonable, because however the majority of players currently owned by Chelsea are almost all new players who were brought in during the summer transfer market, so Maresca still really needs time to make them into a unit that has chemistry between players in club at this time, next season maybe we won't see Chelsea in the top 4 but I'm quite sure they will still be able to stay in the top 10, the journey to see Chelsea develop will still take a lot of time so it's best for the fans to remain patient in supporting the real Chelsea has started a new era with a young squad.

Although it is difficult, the possibility is still there because Chelsea already has a strong enough team framework and also many quality players so it is not so difficult for Enzo Maresca to be able to build this team and compete at the top of the Premier League standings, but the percentage for that is small, I admit that but I see it quite optimistically. Enzo Maresca is a fairly qualified coach, he only needs full support from Chelsea management and even if in his first season he cannot bring Chelsea to the best position at least Chelsea management must be able to give Enzo Maresca several seasons to be able to build the team with the process.

When Chelsea chose Enzo Maresca to be their coach, I think it's a gamble because even though Maresca can bring Leicester back to the Premier League but the story could be different if he managed a team that had to fight in the Premier League, and this will be his first experience in the Premier League as a manager. Obviously, it won't be easy because unlike at Leicester, he will be under quite a lot of pressure at Chelsea because Chelsea is expected to return to the top.

According to Ipswich transfer list i have seen Conor Townsend is became an the 6th player who bought by Ipswich this summer and indeed Ipswich is very active to buy the players to strengthen their squad and people have already know about this before because after always be playing at lower division finally Ipswich has successfully to return to Premier League again and it took 22 years for Ipswich to playing again at the highest level of competition in England so i am sure they don't want to be relegated and want to stayed much longer

About Conor Townsend i think he is very lucky Ipswich was bought him from West Brom because before Ipswich has decide to bought him Conor Townsend mostly spend his time to playing at championship division and this is the first time for him to playing at high level of competition such as Premier League but he have to realize that Premier League is different compared to Championship division and he have to showing to Ipswich fans that he deserved to joining with this team

Besides Conor Townsend i have realize that Ipswich has permanent Omari Hutchinson status from Chelsea and i think this is good transfer for Ipswich because Omari Hutchinson progress with this team is very good and last season Kieran McKenna is really trust him to playing regularly and Omari Hutchinson performance is not dissapointing because he can scores 10 goals at championship division and i think for next season Omari Hutchinson can being an the key player of Ipswich

I never thought this team would make it into the top 4 this season. Chelsea struggled in mid-table for much of the 2023/24 season, but have won their last five games to move up to sixth. Those investing in Chelsea should understand that this is a long-term process and it will take time before they can return to the top 4. It was a two-three year project before Chelsea's youth squad took the team back to the Champions League. The chaos at Stamford Bridge under Todd Boehly continued as Mauricio Pochettino departed at the end of the season, with Enzo Maresca as his replacement. Enzo Maresca needs to rebuild the team's winning spirit.

I believe that if Christopher Nkunku can maintain his best form, he has the class and experience to form a partnership with Cole Palmer, thereby at least helping Chelsea return to the Champions League, where this team belongs. Of course, we can't predict the future. But at the moment, Chelsea look unlikely to break into the top four immediately.

[armanda90]

When Chelsea chose Enzo Maresca to be their coach, I think it's a gamble because even though Maresca can bring Leicester back to the Premier League but the story could be different if he managed a team that had to fight in the Premier League, and this will be his first experience in the Premier League as a manager. Obviously, it won't be easy because unlike at Leicester, he will be under quite a lot of pressure at Chelsea because Chelsea is expected to return to the top.

Appointing Enzo Maresca as new manager seems big gambling did by Chelsea's management, his reputation as success manager in EFL Championship after promoting Leicester City can't guarantee will easily make Chelsea reach the higher standings for next season.
Actually, Enzo Maresca less experienced with big Premier League team except as Pep Guardiola assistant manager but its not enough for him acceptable big challenge to bring Chelsea reach the top fourth position standings in his first season.

Get huge pressure when become Chelsea manager after getting much money and Enzo Maresca have signed several top players, looking how much money spent for winter transfer fees I think he must bring Chelsea to Premier League tittle race with Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool or he will loss position as manager such as what happen before with Pochettino.

[slapper]

Why would you say that Chelsea ate not planning of winning the league to to finish on top four when this was the reason why the management fired Pocchetino to achieve success but I don't see them on that track because it might only be a dream.

Selling the players that are more experienced in the club is a wrong move and that can affect the performance of the club. Maybe the new coach already have his own players that will suit his game strategy at hand.

Haha maybe that's his personal opinion but the fact is that almost all clubs are fighting to win the title it's just that they know their capabilities and they sometimes don't want to expect more, especially for Chelsea I believe they are one of the clubs that are aiming for the title since the last 3 seasons and that is also the reason why they spent a lot of money in 2 transfer windows. For next season, Chelsea is not the main candidate to win the title but for the top 4, I think it is not impossible and currently Chelsea is preparing a young squad maybe not for this season but who knows next season. I believe Chelsea is one of the elite clubs in the Premier League and never thought that they would be relegated.

Last season at the very end they actually picked themselves up and started to move forward. They sat halfway through the season in mid-table and at the end of the season they climbed to 6th place. I'm sure if they had more time they could have fought for 5th or even 4th place. So I'm not writing them off for the new season

It was risky to fire Pochettino, but Enzo Maresca may be Chelsea's mad scientist. This dude's got a vision, and if the squad buys into it, we could see some fireworks

They turned around a bad season. Maresca can build on their grit and resolve. If he can rapidly install his system and get these guys playing well, Chelsea might challenge City and Arsenal for a top-four finish

This requires adaption. Can these players acquire Maresca's strategies quickly? Can they keep their deadly instinct from last season? If so, a Champions League spot is in sight. This isn't a fantasy. Chelsea have skill, drive, and a new coach who may be the missing piece. Buckle up and get to know this team

Maresca taking over after Pochettino was just getting things stable is a major move. However, our young workforce is hungry and talented.  No guarantee it'll be easy. Road obstacles are inevitable. But thats how great things are made, right? You conquer obstacles and become stronger.

Chelsea demonstrated it before. Recall last season? We turned around and ended strong from the center of the table. This club has the tenacity and determination.

So top four may be unlikely this season. These young athletes are ready to commit to Maresca's mission. Please give them time to establish their groove and build team chemistry. I think they'll surprise many. Everything is doable with good leadership and attitude.

They should be.. First, they have a sound coach who will definitely thrive in the Premier League Competition. That's only if he has the player's to carry out his ideas and tactics.. I also do not see them getting relegated back to the Championship at the end of the new season approaching.

As for Chelsea, why forcefully pushing out your academy players? In between that midfied has got to many players who they need to sell. The likes of Ugochukwu and Chukwuemeka are such names, they should sell them so they can concentrate on a little few.
I do not like how Trevor Chalobah and Conor Gallagher has been treated in the last few weeks. I'm hoping Conor Gallagher accepts the move to Atletico Madrid rather than treat him like an outsider. The management of Chelsea indeed sucks if they have any direct hands in this.

Chelsea will have to start the season we'll, they need to do all they can to beat Manchester City during that opening game of the season.

[OcTradism]

It was risky to fire Pochettino, but Enzo Maresca may be Chelsea's mad scientist.

The decision to fire Pochettino is very unfair for this coach, and I hope that Chelsea won't regret by making this tough and unfair decision on a coach who helped them to partially resolve their crisis and jumped up very impressively in late of past season.

This dude's got a vision, and if the squad buys into it, we could see some fireworks

They turned around a bad season. Maresca can build on their grit and resolve. If he can rapidly install his system and get these guys playing well, Chelsea might challenge City and Arsenal for a top-four finish

I have no impression on Maresca and even he is a good coach, he will need time to adapt to first job at a biggest club in his career. It's not easy to change from a small, average club to a big club like Chelsea with so much expectation and pressure. He will be given more money for transfers, have more star players to use but pressure is simply huge and it isn't easy to deal with.

I really didn't think that Chelsea and Pochettino will separate each other at the end of last season. Difference in plans for future forces them to separate each other and Chelsea will possibly pay high cost in a new season that will begin soon.

[Majestic-milf]

I don't think the coach of the Reds Arne Slot would be pleased with the kind of performance they had against Arsenal, if he is ok with everything in that game then Liverpool are going to find it hard to get the team play as a unit and get better results when it comes to the big 6 teams in the EPL and the clubs in the champions league. To me I don't see anything special about the Liverpool side, let's forget the fact that Arteta and his boys was joking about the game, Liverpool need to identify their problem before it becomes too late for the team and they haven't gotten any player in this transfer window, seems they don't feel like adding any new player to the squad but someone might leave Liverpool soon.

From the looks of things, he seemed pleased by their performance and was also heard commending them on their efforts. If you look at things, they are the only club that hasn't made any signings and that should tell you a lot. Liverpool will either be better than when Klopp left them or they will be a shadow of themselves, all depending on how Arne Slot handles the team and we'd see when the season starts if Liverpool will remain the threat they were last season and if Anfield will be a dreaded ground for teams or not.
