Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Jatiluhung]

Chelsea are still having bad results despite all the players they're signing because they keep on signing average players. Signing players is a good thing and banking on young players is also a good thing but you can't go about signing every youngster you come across and don't sign any veterans that can actually lead the club to glory. The club is a mess I kid you not. They're filled with young players that are not even that good. If they had been signing generational talent types of young players, it wouldn't have still worked out when you have so many young players together, talk more of when the young players they're signing are not generational talent.
I feel sorry for the coach though because everything is going to be his fault.
Aside from players like Enzo, Nkunkun, and James, I struggle to see any undoubably good players in Chelsea.

I can also say that the Chelsea club looks like it is full of speculation. It's just that they seem to be investing in the young players they bring there. But too many numbers will only make it difficult for coaches to choose. If you remember when Potter came here, at that time the complaint at this club was that there were too many players sitting on the bench. Meanwhile the coach tries to give everyone a chance. And of course that's hard to do. I would rather this team just focus on some potential young players. And develop it to the maximum. But what we see now is a buildup of young players here. But the results we saw last season were quite good. So I will not blame the management of this club before the results are seen. So I think we'll see how it goes.

[lizarder]

Look at the vote at the top of the topic, not everyone thinks the same as you, and I see that the prevailing opinion is that Arsenal will become champions. I do not agree with this opinion, and I think that last season was the limit of their capabilities for Arsenal, and this time City will not let them be so close. I understand that Arteta really wants to become champions with Arsenal, but as long as City and Guardiola dominate the Premier League, they will be champions. Maybe this is Guardiola's last season in the Premier League, he has not yet decided definitively and will think about it closer to the end of the season.

Arsenal almost won the Premier League for two seasons, but entering the end of the competition, their consistency decreased so that Man City managed to make Arsenal fail to come out as champions. This is Arteta's third season with Arsenal, but to ensure they remain as strong candidates for the title will be very difficult because the Premier League matches have not started. Moreover, other clubs will also make improvements so that the competition will be different from the previous season.

Pep Guardiola has not confirmed whether he will leave after his contract ends next season, but rumors are circulating that he will consider extending his contract. Anything is still possible and we will see next season how Pep Guardiola will make a decision to stay or go because he still has one season left and is focused on bringing Man City back to win the title.

[Amphenomenon]

Every team will continue to try like that this season so they can get good results right away when the season starts. Because in the Premier League there are still many strong teams that Arsenal need to pay attention to even though they themselves are trying to improve this season and can make a certain level of difficulty for all their rivals. But we also need to see how other teams develop from now on because in the Premier League there is always fierce competition that will be presented every season and the most consistent in winning their matches will be the team that challenges for the title like Manchester City did last season.

Besides City, there is also Liverpool, which is also showing very good results in the off-season, they are not yet perceived as worthy competitors, because they do not know what to expect from Slot, but what I see in friendly matches, I really like. We still have to get used to the fact that Klopp is no longer the coach of Liverpool, but if Liverpool has a good season, then they will quickly talk about his departure. I expect the main fight between these three teams, City, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Actually I tip Aston Villa more above Liverpool from the fact that just like how Arsenal just continue to become  especially these past two seasons relatively Aston Villa as been no different since Unai Emery took charge as the head coach and with the amount of money spent to improve the squad, I think they might do better this season than Liverpool who still yet to sign any player which is not that bad since they have been doing well in pre season but we can't the fact that injury woes is like a basic thing English top club suffer every season and Liverpool are often too unfortunate of this fate since it hard to see the better progressively just like last season when they fall off the title race after it.

Chelsea are still having bad results despite all the players they're signing because they keep on signing average players. Signing players is a good thing and banking on young players is also a good thing but you can't go about signing every youngster you come across and don't sign any veterans that can actually lead the club to glory. The club is a mess I kid you not. They're filled with young players that are not even that good. If they had been signing generational talent types of young players, it wouldn't have still worked out when you have so many young players together, talk more of when the young players they're signing are not generational talent.
I feel sorry for the coach though because everything is going to be his fault.
Aside from players like Enzo, Nkunkun, and James, I struggle to see any undoubably good players in Chelsea.

But the results we saw last season were quite good. So I will not blame the management of this club before the results are seen. So I think we'll see how it goes.

In as much as we can't really determine how they will perform properly with pre season, I will have to say I have lost any expectation from the fact that if you watch the highlight of the goals they conceded this pre season I bet you will have to ask yourself if this defense can even compete against mid tier club at EPL because they where obviously too disappointing, I don't rate Enzo highly and I have so many criticism to say about both him and the management decision, they are clearly destroying our club especially Cobham.

[pusaka]

City are usually favorites to win against most teams in the world, and definitely against Manchester United, but the Manchester derby can be unpredictable sometimes and even the team in form can lose unexpectedly. Nobody expected Manchester United to beat City in the 2023/2024 Fa cup final, but they did. Don't get me wrong, i am not saying United is going to win the game, but there is a chance, and to add to that, the first game of the new season is usually tricky and the best players might not be at their best.

yes, it's true, Manchester City remains a great, strong team, but Manchester United remains a dangerous team, they can sleep the whole match and concede and then with a sprint score two goals a few minutes from the end and snatch an undeserved cup from the team that had dominated all the time.

They scare me too

It was a stroke of luck and in football luck does have a place for any team, including teams that are considered not performing well and also teams that are considered not worthy of winning the title. However, Manchester United could surprise everyone with the victory they achieved in that match. Comparing the 2 teams from Manchester, it is unfortunate that the team that was formed earlier had to lag behind a team that was younger than them. However, that's how it is, sometimes everything will turn around. I hope Manchester United can soon find their best game and they can return to achieving glory like they used to do.

[EFS]

I watched Arsenal's friendly against Bayer Leverkusen and it looks like they are ready for the new season. Arsenal seems to be the only team that can compete with Manchester City again. They didn't make any signings except Calafiori but last season's squad was good enough. Their squad is so good that City didn't make any signings either. On the other hand Chelsea made many transfers but they probably won't be able to keep up with these two giants again.

[SmartCharpa]

Since Manchester United couldn't have a good performance so far during the last season now they want to improve the team and especially the midfielders, that's why they decided to stop working with Casemiro and McTominay while these two players are both key players, and effective for Manchester united but they won't stop working with both players and hire some other players instead and they think Manuel Ugarte but this player too expensive and PSG asked 65 million euros for him that's why Manchester United thinks about Sander Berge the player Burnley.
 

 

In my opinion, Manchester United should have sold any of their current midfielders as a way to complete the Manuel Ugarte deal, Casemiro and McTominay cannot strengthen the midfield as they would like, in fact, Casemiro has not been in the best form since last season, and Manchester United should have considered selling him when the Saudi team request for him because it looks like Casemiro's career has ended in Real Madrid, this isn't the same Casemiro we knew from Madrid.

They are playing base on how it favors them, talking about Arsenal, I think since Arsène Wenger left they started doing well in club friendly games, so is like they value the friendly games more and you have to see how wonderful they played ahead of next season. Seeing the Leverkusen side with all they did last season losing any game now isn't important to them until the main show get started, for now I believe Bayer Leverkusen have a lot on their plate and they are ready to keep everyone fit for the task ahead on like the Gunners who has already planned to fail on their quest for greatness. If nothing positive comes out for Arsenal then it is official that the Gunners are never going to win anything until they start spending heavily.

You're right, it looks like pre-season games are more important to Arsenal than league games, Arsenal can perform well in pre-season games but weak at the end of the season, Arsenal has to break their curse of failing to win a title. Arsenal has failed at the end of the season in the last two seasons because they can't do as well as they did at the beginning of the season, and based on what I see at this point, Arsenal will make the same mistake next season since they still have the same players as last season, they did not spend much money on getting more players to improve their performance, while Arteta refused to learn from their past mistakes.

[Uruhara]

yes, it's true, Manchester City remains a great, strong team, but Manchester United remains a dangerous team, they can sleep the whole match and concede and then with a sprint score two goals a few minutes from the end and snatch an undeserved cup from the team that had dominated all the time.

They scare me too

Man United when they are at their best is always a very dangerous team. And we also must not forget that Man United is the champion in the FA Cup. So their strength must still be taken into account even though they did not get very good results in the Premier League. Man City is a team whose strength is greatly feared, not only in the premier league but also in the UCL. Maybe in last season's UCL, if Man City had not faced Real Madrid, there is a big possibility that this team would have advanced to the final again. But both of them will once again try to prove who is stronger, namely through the final match in the Community Shield which will bring together the Premier League champions and the FA Cup champions.

[Baki202]

If Chelsea focus is building a team for the future, then they shouldn't be complaining and firing managers when the results are not coming now. You can't assemble boys that haven't gotten the experiences and you want them to be winning clubs like Manchester City and Arsenal, Liverpool included, also expect them to win trophies And qualify for Champions league, at the expense of clubs that has more matured and experience players. That's not possible, no wonder they were not very convincing during the preseason. They should expect to battle it out with clubs like Ipswich, Nottingham Forest, Southampton and clubs in those categories in finishing among top 10. My only pity is for Enzo Maresca who is going to be at the center of everything and be the one to receive all the blames. I have this conviction that his CV will get spoilt at Chelsea, because Chelsea will make him look like someone who doesn't know football management.

 Chelasea management have a big problem and they can not even manage the club well any longer, a club that have been in business should understand that their is nothing new, but the fact that they want to measure up with other clubs when they are just trying to recover, now is an opportunity to align the club in the sense that it's a perfect opportunity to actually build the club, it is just as if they are having misplace priority, instead of them to focus on leakages they are busy focusing on the win because the process of them focusing on the leakages they might actually have wins we never can tell. So everything is a gradual process and we can not change the way things happen expecially in football so instead of the sacking of the coaches they should give them some time to actually do very well. Chelsea can not be compared to those three clubs especially the defending champions. Because the trophy was around the three of them, until the city won it. Chelsea's  have excellent players but they just need grow them and the fact that they have to battle with those clubs, just very unlike Chelsea that we know.

[Palakka]

yes, it's true, Manchester City remains a great, strong team, but Manchester United remains a dangerous team, they can sleep the whole match and concede and then with a sprint score two goals a few minutes from the end and snatch an undeserved cup from the team that had dominated all the time.

But both of them will once again try to prove who is stronger, namely through the final match in the Community Shield which will bring together the Premier League champions and the FA Cup champions.

Next season we will see how the competition between the two teams will return earlier in the Community Shield final, Previously, Manchester City had to lose to Manchester United in the FA final, so Manchester City should be wary of Manchester United performance in that the match, although the two teams will meet in the final and  fighting for a minor trophy, but the rivalry that has been going on between the two of them will certainly trigger the match to be very tight and tough.

Manchester United has improved the quality of its squad, making it possible for them to be able to face Manchester City much better than last season, in last season we can see if Manchester United often experienced inconsistencies in their game when their facing weak teams, but when facing big teams and in crucial matches such as the FA final, of course we didn't expect them to be able to appear so dangerous throughout the match.

Chelsea sign Aarón Anselmino from Boca Juniors

Chelsea have completed the signing of defender Aarón Anselmino from Boca Juniors, with the 19-year-old putting pen to paper on a seven-year contract. Chelsea are reportedly paying over $20m for this transfer.

We've made quite a few such signings in recent windows: hopefully some of them will indeed pay off in the future rather than just weigh down our finances and clutter up our loan and development pathways. To wit, Anselmino will now go back to Argentina to finish out at least this calendar year on loan at Boca, but probably stay through to next summer as well. His prospect will then be reevaluated.

Anselmino is highly rated but highly inexperienced at senior level. Hopefully he can start earning some minutes with Boca soon: he's recently returned from a muscle injury, but has made just one league appearance this year.

New reason has not yet started, so that we can see how Manchester United’s performances will look like,Maybe there will be improvement or not. Despite that, Manchester United have not signed that good number of quality players as the season is about to start. Still, I can't judge them that their next season's performances will be poor.

Some teams' performances changes to great even without adding new players to their squads, and also some teams' performances worsen even when they add new players to the squad.So it will be better for the season to start first before fully judging team performances. Manchester United still have quality players, better than some other teams that did better than them last season, but I don't really know what is contributing to the poor performances. But in my own view, I think it is the coach. Last season, with the kind of quality players that Manchester United if have compared to Aston Villa and other teams that did better than Manchester United last season,Manchester United have quality players than them. with the type of players Manchester United have, I believe they can pick form anytime.

If we go back to last season and look at the statistics that Manchester United can create, then we will see that they can actually play well when facing a big team, but when they face a team that is considered weak they actually play badly. Either because they underestimate their opponents or there is something else that makes them like that. This is certainly also a job for the coach how he should prevent something like this from happening to them next season. Erik Ten Hag is still trusted and many doubt him. If he is not able to make Manchester United play better, then I think Manchester United should take the decision to immediately fire him. At least this is the last chance that management should give him and when he fails to prove it through his team's game then I think the opportunity for Ten Hag should be over.

[Sim_card]

I pray Todd Boehly gives this manager a chance because it is difficult for a team to be transformed in a season.

I don't think Todd is one to give managers time, that is why i am worried for Maresca that he won't last longer than this season, though for his sake i wish i turn out to be wrong. Chelsea does not look like a team that will be successful this season, there are a lot of things that still needs fixing in their team and i don't think their new manager is the man to fix it. Chelsea's transfer business is appalling, they are not buying the right players for their team, and they are definitely going to struggle again this season.

About buying players, I don’t think they are buying players to utilize now they are merely investing in their future and they believe they have more than enough players already for the main team and most of those players will probably be loaned out until they are matured enough to either join the main team or be marketed and sold for a higher price. I think the management is merely after profit they can make from player sales.

Earlier before appointing Enzo Maresca he made it known that he wants to build Chelsea in a way similar to Arsenal using young players with a coach that can improve their style of play and i think it was why he sacked Pochettino and brought in Maresca so i have faith that he will give Maresca the chance to build his team and he may be around for more than a season.

But will the fans understand his motives because it has been long that Chelsea won the title and I believe the same old fans that are use to celebrating Chelsea's victory as title winners are still the same people and they are eager to see that Chelsea comes back to its best performance in order for them to win the league. If Todd wants to turn Chelsea to an academy school then it means that he might lose his fans who will not like such decisions. It is not by buying young players but buying talented young players that can add impact to the club should incase some of the first eleven players are injured. I hop that his new plans work out for him in the long run.

[ndutndut]

But about the big win Arsenal got against Bayer Leverkusen, I personally don't consider it a good or impressive result because after all, they only play in friendly matches that cannot be used as a reference. After all, if you compare the victory against Bayer Leverkusen,then of course Atalanta is still the best, because Atalanta managed to beat Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final,  unlike Arsenal who only won in a friendly match. lol

This is a bit of a strange comparison in my opinion. Because every match, especially every competition, the course of the match will be different. If your assessment is like that, does that mean you want to say Atalanta is better than Arsenal? It's not fair to compare with Arsenal because Arsenal are not competing in the European league, maybe if Arsenal were in the European league last season it would be different.

But even though it was only a pre-season match, I think it's natural that we were all impressed by the game Arsenal displayed in this friendly match. In the first half Arsenal really played very well. They managed to take advantage of opportunities well enough so that they managed to get 3 goals in the first half. Arteta has indeed succeeded in building the Arsenal squad to become stronger every season. And yes, that's why Arteta is very trusted there and in fact I'm sure we all here also really appreciate Arteta who has succeeded in making Arsenal always compete in the race for the title. I think this season Arsenal will probably try to get their hands on the trophy. Because I think they deserve it.

Indeed, pre-season matches don't mean anything, but those matches will certainly increase Arsenal's confidence, their strength will increase. This will be Arteta's best season, I think it will be special. Arsenal have an aura now and Arsenal are an organized team and have high-quality players. They just lack a sharp striker in the penalty box and Bayer Leverkusen were lost throughout the match. I think with the game and the squad that Arsenal have now, it's time for them to lift the trophy next season, they have made the same mistakes for two seasons so they failed to get the EPL trophy, Arteta seems to have learned from that mistake.

[Cookdata]

Chelsea are still having bad results despite all the players they're signing because they keep on signing average players. Signing players is a good thing and banking on young players is also a good thing but you can't go about signing every youngster you come across and don't sign any veterans that can actually lead the club to glory. The club is a mess I kid you not. They're filled with young players that are not even that good. If they had been signing generational talent types of young players, it wouldn't have still worked out when you have so many young players together, talk more of when the young players they're signing are not generational talent.
I feel sorry for the coach though because everything is going to be his fault.
Aside from players like Enzo, Nkunkun, and James, I struggle to see any undoubably good players in Chelsea.

Players don't just rise from dust to legend, they started from somewhere. You aren't expecting Chelsea to go to Real Madrid and beg them to give them Rodrigo or go to Barcelona to give them Yamal. Spain club is too far, Manchester City is the closest, you don't expect them to sign Haaland to come help them win trophy. They have to start from somewhere, even Haaland started from somewhere and nobody know of his existence in English league until he was transferred From Bundesliga to English Premier League club.

Pre-season is full of friendly match and shouldn't be a basis for judgement of team position in the next tournament. Beside, the players are mixed players and not complete squad that represents the team. If it was important match, the coach knows better what to do in such situation.

[KingsDen]

yes, it's true, Manchester City remains a great, strong team, but Manchester United remains a dangerous team, they can sleep the whole match and concede and then with a sprint score two goals a few minutes from the end and snatch an undeserved cup from the team that had dominated all the time.

Gone are the days when I used to be very proud of my club Manchester United. These days I am just patriotic still about the club and believing that in the future we will bounce back the red devils we used to be. I do remember when Manchester derby is to be a show of Manchester United but all of yesterday Manchester City has overtaken Manchester United just because of the money factor. Football is all about money, this is an investment, if you are willing to invest more money, buy quality players and then bring in good coach, your team will become the best.

For this coming season, I did not see Manchester United competing with Manchester City. Although Manchester United can make the top four, but the current squad and the coach we have now cannot make us compete favourably with Manchester City.

[Marykeller]

Chelsea seems to be the club in the PL that has the highest number of players. The number of players Chelsea has, I believe it will not be an easy job for Enzo to control and maximize the number of players in Chelsea. Chelsea has about 41 first-team players. For Enzo to put the squad together will take him time to do. He will be confused at times to know the right player to substitute for the other in a given match.



For me, I believe Chelsea has the right set of players that can contest for the top position, but the problem will be how to manage the players by bringing the best in them to align with one another in a match.

Time, time is what Enzo needs as Chelsea coach. Chelsea management and fans know that

It is not by buying young players but buying talented young players that can add impact to the club should incase some of the first eleven players are injured.

I would say that Chelsea are in dire straits right now. Basically Chelsea's woes have started since the change of ownership. And since then Chelsea's condition is more weak and shaky due to various bad decisions of Chelsea management. This team failed to perform well consistently. Despite changing the coach several times, Chelsea did not get any benefit.

For these reasons I think Chelsea should start planning for the long term now. Last season we saw the Chelsea management put pressure on every coach to improve the team quickly. But rapid improvement is not possible for Chelsea. I would say if Mourinho was given enough time by the Chelsea management, he could have turned the whole team around. New coach Enzo Maresca will definitely have to give the Chelsea management enough time. Otherwise it is not possible to stabilize this group. Chelsea management must be patient.

[Hvdv]

Basically Arsenal became one of the teams that had a high transfer value and thus, it was proven at least in the last two seasons that Arsenal managed to compete for trophies in the Premier League. After all, if for example Arsenal were unable to do that, then Arteta should have been fired. But yes,because so far Arteta has still managed to make Arsenal have a good performance and although there is no trophy obtained by Arsenal, but at least there will  still be a chance for Arsenal to get the best results next season maybe with a trophy too.

But about the big win Arsenal got against Bayer Leverkusen, I personally don't consider it a good or impressive result because after all, they only play in friendly matches that cannot be used as a reference. After all, if you compare the victory against Bayer Leverkusen,then of course Atalanta is still the best, because Atalanta managed to beat Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final,  unlike Arsenal who only won in a friendly match. lol

And yes, that's why Arteta is very trusted there and in fact I'm sure we all here also really appreciate Arteta who has succeeded in making Arsenal always compete in the race for the title. I think this season Arsenal will probably try to get their hands on the trophy. Because I think they deserve it.

Leverkusen was devastated against Arsenal in the friendly match. This is a big problem for them because they will be in the Champions League next year. Even though friendly matches are not important, the 4-1 score can be seen as a problem. It shows that there are problems in the defense area for Leverkusen. It was a perfect match for Arsenal as well. They defeated Leverkusen with a clear score. Xabi will control many things after this match.

[Abu-Naim]

The club is a mess I kid you not. They're filled with young players that are not even that good. If they had been signing generational talent types of young players, it wouldn't have still worked out when you have so many young players together, talk more of when the young players they're signing are not generational talent.
I feel sorry for the coach though because everything is going to be his fault.
Aside from players like Enzo, Nkunkun, and James, I struggle to see any undoubably good players in Chelsea.

The process Enzo Maresca is taking is a bit fast in my opinion and it will take the players time to adapt to his pattern because it looks difficult and completely different from their previous style of play; before the players get used to the pattern of three defense and massive pressing and attach Maresca is imposing, the team will lose some matches before they gain their balance.

The massive signing is not a problem because most teams are now after young players but his standard and pattern of signing is not convincing to Chelsea fans. Nevertheless, I still don't know how he is going to handle a lot of players in his squad.

Arne Slot looks more competent than Enzo Maresca based on pre-season games. Slot wanted to bring his pattern just as Enzo is trying, but he stick to Kloop's pattern for now and try changing the team step by step, and they are now playing very well so far in their preseason matches.
