Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[rendravolt]

~snip~

The two goals scored by Madrid in that match were actually not due to the greatness of the Madrid players, but rather the poor and weak defense that Chelsea currently has, even from what we saw today, don't we all really miss Rudiger, Thiago Silva and also Koulibally is currently in Chelsea defense, not the clowns that Chelsea bought expensively, such as Fofana, Colwill and Badiashile.
I think Madrid second goal could have been prevented if only Badiashile had moved quicker to block the ball into the goal and not just watched without making the slightest effort to prevent it.

It's funny if Badiashile thought the ball would go out so he didn't try to move to clear it before it went into the goal.

However, as long as the ball hasn't gone in, he should have tried to fall to clear the ball with a tackle because that's the natural instinct of a defender. It's really unexpected that he just stood there and watched the ball go in and I think Enzo Maresca should scold him so that he realizes what he did was a mistake.

If this continues to happen again, it's not impossible that Chelsea will finish in the middle of the table again because they often concede goals due to lack of awareness in defending. Honestly, this is very embarrassing and what will happen if Chelsea is still a team that is mocked next season, I think that will make them in the worst condition.

I'm not sure if this is an important match or not what is clear is don't be too confident on one side. Indeed, Manchester City deserves to be the favorite to win because they have a better history and statistics it's just that sometimes the unexpected can happen for example they play young or new players well this can mess up our predictions so it's better to wait a few hours before the match starts to see the starting lineup. By the way so far the sportsbooks Stake.com prefer Manchester City and both teams to score YES and over goals are still the favorites to place bets, I don't think both teams think about playing defensively meaning the fight will go on until the last minute and let's wait for the next 4 days.

City won't play purely defensively but it could happen that they control the ball all game (without trying to take risks, playing "for sure"), then United will have big problems to score a goal. So I'm not at all confident in BTTS. I'll probably just place a simple bet on City, as it will be a normal game (and not a game where City players have not had time to sober up from drinking in honor of the title) as I expect them to justify their status as favorites.

So far I have not seen anything surprising made by Erik Ten Hag to the development of his squad. While Man City is much more promising, even though they have to put young players on the field but in terms of quality, Man City second-tier squad can still overcome Man United main squad. Apart from that, because this is a Manchester Derby match where both want to maintain their respective reputations both teams will score goals even if Man United can win, the score difference will be small. It all depends on the ingenuity of coach Erik Ten Hag in breaking Man City solid defense.

That's right, Chelsea management has made many mistakes so that their team is as bad as it is now and Enzo Maresca's task is very difficult, it is not easy for him to build a team from the beginning again like Chelsea now which does not have a strong team framework.

Several Chelsea pre-season matches have actually proven that they are now getting worse.
And I think there is nothing more to expect from Chelsea, they will not be better next season than last season and one way to make Chelsea rise is to provide support and also time for Enzo Maresca to build this team through the process, but if not then Chelsea will change coaches every year.

Indeed, that is the only way to get Chelsea back on its feet. Namely giving more time to the coach who is managing the club now. Last season, Pochettino was actually in the same position as Enzo is currently. Maybe Pochettino was even in a tougher situation at that time. Meanwhile, Enzo currently only needs to continue what Pochettino built last season. We know that Pochettino can be said to be quite successful in improving Chelsea. Because Chelsea could ultimately finish in a pretty good ranking. But unfortunately Pochettino didn't last long here. And maybe something similar shouldn't happen again. Enzo must be able to last more than one season if he wants to rebuild Chelsea to a better point. I'm also not sure whether Chelsea will be better this season than last season. But I see Enzo as trustworthy enough to do it. At least I hope Chelsea doesn't fall out of the top 10.

Chelsea are currently in poor condition, their performance in pre-season is very disappointing, there is no significant development shown under the current coach, poor defense is one of Chelsea's weaknesses, last season and this season only show disappointment for the fans, there needs to be a real overhaul that can rebuild Chelsea's glory, yes and it seems there is no hope for Chelsea in the competitive league which is now getting closer

You don't need to take preseason games seriously and there is no reason to say what you said. It is too early to say that Chelsea performance is bad and has no hope of returning to its glory days while the season has not started.
What you need to know now to avoid worrying is to consider pre season match as games to test young players or give all players a little chance to show their own style of play without taking this match seriously. And we haven't seen Enzo real contribution yet, but we need to see at least Chelsea first 10 games and if they get good results from the 10 match, Chelsea still has a chance.

[Majestic-milf]

 Chelsea have ended their tour of the US in a poor manner; a loss and to a team that has no strikers! Isn't it funny that Enzo Maresca's woes are increasing and he can't really do anything about it? Should we say the Blues are flopping because of poor coordination or is there a pep talk he hasn't really given his boys for them to pick up and learn from their mistakes?
It's also funny to think you can match the strength of Real Madrid at the moment because their pace and skills is really top notch and it's bad that they have to make light work of a club who have been busy signing so many players. I don't know how this season will look like for Chelsea but witg how they are performing in the friendlies, I'm beginning to have a clue.

[naira]

It's hypocritical to say Chelsea is improving with the performance we have seen so far in this preseason matches. They conceded twelve goals in just five games and only scored nine goals. A lot of work has to be done in the defense.

Yesterday, I only watch the second half of that match but frankly speaking, Chelsea is not in any way different from what they've been before. Whoever plot Pottechino out has done a very bad thing to Chelsea. Seeing how €100m players were dominated by kids is very heartbreaking. I wonder how they are going to defend this team when premier league finally starts.

I don't know what to comment on Chelsea preseason match, especially against Real Madrid. Because the difference is very clear, Madrid is a club that is organized from the bottom to the top while Chelsea is a club that has no vision and mission to play. I know this is a preseason that cannot be 100% guaranteed, especially against Real Madrid. However the fact cannot lie that those involved in Chelsea's management seem to not care about the club's situation. Enzo Maresca is the next victim who is pressured to fix the club but has minimal support.

[Luzin]

I don't know how this season will look like for Chelsea but witg how they are performing in the friendlies, I'm beginning to have a clue.

What is your conclusion from Chelsea's pre-season results? It seems that not having enough results makes us believe they will have a good result for the upcoming League. But from my experience, pre-season matches cannot be a definite benchmark for results in the league that will run. Maresca also looks set to work to the maximum, but it looks like he still needs some adjustment and time. But I think next season there will be a lot of surprises.

That's pretty obvious, Chelsea is gonna have a terrible season soon. The defense is poor. Also, Chelsea's goalkeeper and defenders lack coordination. Don't take the result against Madrid seriously. Madrid played many young boys, unlike Chelsea.
I'm very disappointed. Chelsea never had a complete performance on its US tour. Also, the season kicks off in less than two weeks and the players still look so far off from being match fit.

It's very possible to see Chelsea finish out of the top 10.

You know anything that has to do with Chelsea is really laughable with how they take things especially in the transfer market and the friendly games they play, nothing positive or whatsoever and they seem to be comfortable about the whole thing, if you're a fan I believe you'd be pissed about everything. Is like they're not serious, be the transfer market or performance wise, the friendly games can't be a medium to judge how a team will perform when the season begins but for crying out loud, this is Chelsea that we're talking about they need to do better and we have been saying it countless times.
I don't want to see them as a weak team yet, they lost to Madrid 2-1 and their defense was pretty poor, no energy to track back and I can say the goals conceded was too cheap, that's another place Enzo Maresca needs to concentrate on, like he needs to work more in that position. And on second thought, is may be seem like Chelsea are hiding their ability of playing well until they start the season, for now they're just doing any how just to deceive we the views, I'm just saying because this games are friendly games and not all team take it seriously.

Folks, I get the disappointment. Right now Chelsea's not exactly on top of things. Still, lets not overlook Enzo Maresca's difficult circumstances. Considering the situation, he replaced Pochettino, who performed a respectable past season. Maresca is not now seeking to entirely reconstruct the team. He is laying on the basis Pochettino established. Sure, they looked a little wobbly versus Real Madrid in preseason, but those games don often foretell the course of the season. Right now Maresca requires time, confidence, and encouragement. From your perspective as the supporters and from the management. Here, lets not hurry to judgement. Not another coaching modification is what we need: stability. Should we follow the path, who knows: perhaps things will turn around.

I agree with you, Chelsea might finish outside of the top ten next season, even though that was their favorite position for the previous two seasons, thanks to Pochettino who moved them out of that position and finished sixth last season. The Chelsea players did not appear like they had fitness before the pre-season games, the season has not started, and Chelsea performance has been worse than it was last season, since they replaced Rudiger and Thiago Silva, Chelsea defense hasn't been the same they lack a good defender who can stop their opponents from scoring goal.

It's embarrassing that Chelsea failed to draw any of their preseason games against a strong team, I thought Chelsea would be able to compete with big teams with the way they were recruiting young players as a team that prepared to win every title in Europe next season, Chelsea didn't seem to be a team that could bear the pressure of its opponents, but we'll see how they do next season.

I think Madrid second goal could have been prevented if only Badiashile had moved quicker to block the ball into the goal and not just watched without making the slightest effort to prevent it.

Seeing the errors made by this guy got me thinking the management of Chelsea are either biased or blind, and if not blind, they obviously lacked knowledge about football. How can they keep such wacked defenders honestly and they are willing to sell out Trevor Chalobah? This is complete stupidity honestly. I'm wondering how far Badiasheli was from that ball, how can you play for such a top club and give up so easily? I do not blame him anyways, Todd Boehly should be the one listing out the good ood names to leave the club.

I'm afraid they'll be hammered heavily by Manchester City during the first game of the season, mind you, they won't be without Recce James.
Improving the defenders would be the key next season. I don't have hundred percent trust in Fofana and Disasi. Let's see if the guy from Fulham will do brilliant.

[Baki202]

Well, they had an opportunity to make this upcoming season much better but they decided to let it slide by kicking Mauricio Pochettino out, that man took them to the Europa League spot after several errors by previous coaches and if not that Manchester United defeated City to win the FA Cup, Chelsea would've played in Europa League instead of Conference League, but then how did the board pay him back, by cutting ties with him when his bond with players on an off the team became strong. Enzo Maresca might encounter lots of difficulties and things might be worst than other coaches, not leaving behind the fact that he could have a serious confusion in selecting his best XI due to bulky squad depth. As for changing Maresca, it won't come like a surprise given that Todd Boehly lack patience and won't hesitate to look for another option if Maresca doesn't miss his expectations.

Chelsea was to quick to be sacking Mauricio Pochettino everyone deserves a chance to improve I can count how many coaches Chelsea have sacked within two seasons and if they continue like this people won't really have enough time for their strategy to actually work, but all Chelsea care about is instant result and for them to get exactly what they desire they will need to give their coaches more time to be able to establish what ever plan they have an not rush and expect to get results. Winning Europa was not enough for them. If not they would have even appreciated him at least winning a title for them but they want Chelsea to be equal with Manchester City and it won't be possible. They can not be on the same level with Manchester City. And even Manchester United winning the fa cup was all luck to me. Look at what happened to Manchester United during the preseason game with Liverpool they did not even stand a chance against them that is Liverpool for you. Enzo Maresca Will also try is best and and if they don't get results am sure Chelsea will fire him also but this season am sure nothing will come out of Chelsea.

Though preseason games haven't proved to be a good yardstick to ascertain the level of a club's strength or performance level, we mustn't feign ignorance to Chelsea's poor preseason performances and results and I personally feel that it calls for a major concern for the club manager Enzo Maresca. Considering the club's performance in the final third of the pitch, I think the club's seriously need a sharp striker that can convert goals with ease. If Chelsea fails to start the new season with a very prolific striker, they're are likely to struggle to win games. Their performance in their game against Real Madrid last night was a clear 3rd indicator that the club needs a striker that can force his ways through a defence line and either score goals or create fir others to convert

Except someone will tell me Enzo is saving his best tactics for the season and is not taking pre season friendlies seriously that's why they are getting this dismal results, I would understand, but then, they say what is in you can't be hidden and so no matter how you try to dim it, it will always find a way to come out.
 Of the four or five games they played during the tour, it's only one Chelsea were able to win and it was against a club in Mexico (Club America) whose strength can't be compared to even the weak clubs in the EPL.
 Enzo Maresca is really not having a good time right now seeing as he's not performing as he should be doing as he did at Leicester. What I think is that they will not find it easy this season because I don't think any club right now will be willing to relax on their sails and let Chelsea pass them because they will all be struggling to avoid the drop zone or not being able to qualify for European competition.

Looking at the last 5 friendly matches, they won 1 match only 1 draw and 3 losses, of course it is not a good result but I have to agree that pre-season friendly match is not showing the real performance of the team.
I can even say that losing more matches on pre-season matches can help any team to evaluate better and try to improve themselves for the real competitions.
By the way, I also do not see Chelsea are doing good in the window transfer because I dont see popular names in their new arrived players.
I'm not sure how Chelsea will look like in the upcoming season, whether they will be able to compete with other big teams or not next upcoming season.
We will have to wait even until some matches in the new season to know how great a team is (not only Chelsea).

Enzo Maresca Will also try is best and and if they don't get results am sure Chelsea will fire him also but this season am sure nothing will come out of Chelsea.

The decision to fire Pochettino is one of the decisions that raises a big question mark at the moment regarding the reasons for his dismissal, We admit that last season Chelsea slumped in the middle of the season but even so they started to run quite steadily to end the season in 6th place,  they actually have a chance to playing in the European league next season but Manchester United luck in winning the FA actually became a nightmare for Chelsea who ended up having to play in the current conference league, Pochettino had a good framework for facing next season but unfortunately he was fired at the end of the season, in my opinion if Todd Boehly really wants to see Chelsea develop and become a strong team again, they should keep Pochettino as coach because after all he only needs a little more touch to maximize Chelsea next season and that is different from what Enzo Maresca has to do as Chelsea new coach at the moment , Enzo Maresca of course needs time to find a team framework that suits his strategy and playing style, so I think that will not be easy to do in fast time especially since he has no experience in handling young players so far.

[topbitcoin]

The two goals scored by Madrid in that match were actually not due to the greatness of the Madrid players, but rather the poor and weak defense that Chelsea currently has, even from what we saw today, don't we all really miss Rudiger, Thiago Silva and also Koulibally is currently in Chelsea defense, not the clowns that Chelsea bought expensively, such as Fofana, Colwill and Badiashile.
I think Madrid second goal could have been prevented if only Badiashile had moved quicker to block the ball into the goal and not just watched without making the slightest effort to prevent it.

The 2 goals Madrid scored came from 2 failed offside traps from Chelsea which Madrid made good use of. There were a lot of mistakes, especially in terms of communication and relying too much on each other, which made Chelsea hassle themselves in securing their defense.
Madrid's attack pattern is still not too good actually and we can see that there are so many opportunities that seem to be wasted by Madrid but on the other hand it cannot be denied that although Madrid is still not too good in terms of attack but Chelsea is also very bad in their defense which makes Madrid win and seems to be an easy match in this match. Enzo Marescca still has to work hard to change Chelsea at this time because they still have not shown the performance they should show.

What is happening to Chelsea is just like my country National Team. Well to some ways I wouldn't blame the management of Chelsea because the coach, Mauricio Pochettino was a employed to do well which was to win games and probably win the cup. But whereby the team loss in their his first match and loss the second match and probably loss the third game then, it is better to sack him than keep him to lose continually. All teams be a National Team or Club side games, they all need good coach and good players and that is why if a player didn't do well in the first game and the second game, the coach has to replace him with another player that is good.

The most important aspect of coach is to detect the errors of the players and correct them through coaching and that is why friendly Match is vet important on this aspect on football. Given second chance would have killed the team again. And Chelsea right now needs good players and I don't why they have not taken Victor Osimhen in the team.

I'm not sure how Chelsea will look like in the upcoming season, whether they will be able to compete with other big teams or not next upcoming season.
We will have to wait even until some matches in the new season to know how great a team is (not only Chelsea).

I'm also not really sure what Chelsea's fate will be once the new season starts. It is hoped that their performance will really improve in the hands of their new coach, but it is true that no top players have been brought in during the transfer market so far. Chelsea are not yet out of the unpleasant zone, so they still have to fight hard to get their best performance and return to competing fiercely at the top of the standings.

Chelsea's current squad size is really large since several of their loan players have returned, while Chelsea has once again increased its player quota by bringing in at least 7 new players. Marc Guiu, Omari Kellyman, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Renato Veiga, Caleb Wiley, Tosin Adarabioyo and Filip Jorgensen are the names of the newcomers, but none of them are top players. Who knows what Chelsea's scouts have in mind regarding their transfer approach, this is a bit strange.
