Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Docnaster]

This is a pros and cons. On one hand, they understand that Man United's condition is very bad, because there are indeed various complex problems. but on the other hand, they appreciate how Ten Hag brought Man United to become the FA Cup champion last season. so, Man United still trusts Ten Hag.

There was something interesting he said in his inverter view, after Man United's defeat to Liverpool.

Source: Ten Hag and a reporter

Defending himself even when the club is performing poorly have been a normal thing for Erik ten Hag since he's arrived at Manchester United. I've never seen him accept the blames even when the club's poor results seems to be obviously caused by his tactical approaches and that I think is a big sign of a manager who's careless of the success of his team.
I've said it countless times in this thread that Manchester United deserves a better manager that their current gaffer of they really want to return to winning ways and compete for the biggest trophies.

Chelsea is a team they are usually making huge mistakes when they could have much better performance and we know Chelsea could have a better team if they had a better owner.
In the Premier League, Chelsea was one of the stronger teams in the league and they had good performance there but recently they were out of the good form and they couldn't even get the Champions League ticket anymore. I think with Pochettino in this team they could have a much better and more stable situation than they have right now.
 

Chelsea at the start of last season was very inconsistent till the last 10 league matches when they started to well. I don't know if that's what we should also expect from them this season as well but that would be very poor after they signed a handful of world class players. I wouldn't want to judge the club's new manager Enzo Maresca manager after just three league games as I believe he'll improve the team. Let's give him more time to prove himself at Chelsea

[Josefjix]

Because of how inconsistent Chelsea was, that was why they needed a good goal-finisher like Osimhen rather than relying on Jackson, who can miss 10 good scoring opportunities only to score a goal at the end of a match. It doesn't appear nice how Osimhen or Ivan Toney's signing didn't come to fulfillment. If either of the players were signed, it would have been a perfect frontline for the Chelsea team.

Unfortunately, this inconsistent performance is not leaving Chelsea any time soon. Notwithstanding, let's see how Enzo fixes it. But the defense line of Chelsea still faces lapses in holding up to a victory at the end of a match.

Chelsea are gradually coping with Nicolas Jackson and I also believe he's going to be one of the best strikers in the English Premier League. He just needs more time to build up and become formidable in sectional rounds. Chelsea needs a top striker in the club and Victor Osimhen was one of the top priority to sign but everything turn out to become poor for the club. Osimhen declined the offer following the wages structure of the team, it reduced heavily and this was not suitable on the part of the played. Osimhen has best reasons for turning down these deals and having to focus on other priorities.

[Polkeins]

I agree with you and for me, the result is final. The match has turned 1-1 at the very extra time, no side seems better, but if one looks at it extensively, Chelsea is better than Cryptal Palace, the issue with them is that they lack the attacking as needed. They also blew away the win of the first half when Crystal Palace scored nothing until the second half. I don't see any goals coming for either side till this match ends with what they are both playing.

Chelsea football team should attack in last minutes to win this match but they didn't attack in this match and after that we saw match was ended with draw. We want result of that match but that was good performance by Crystal Palace team because they gave all efforts to win this match and after doing 1 goal they defended very well and every time they saved the goal. The goalkeeper of Crystal Palace team is good player and he has mindset of winners and he will be winner of next matches because he is looking in good form. Jackson did first goal in this match and after that no player became successful to do next goal and  that was big reason behind the result of draw match.

In the end of the match Crystal Palace just parked the bus in their penalty area and apparently Chelsea just did not have enough skill or luck to bring the match to victory, and the first half Chelsea played well and it was obvious that Maresca is trying to establish a new style of play for Chelsea, almost does not change the squad and in general playing the same players, but in the second half with Crystal Palace it was obvious that the team ran out of ideas and can not come up with anything new in a situation where the opponent almost the whole team plays in defense.
In addition, standard positions also remain Chelsea's weak point and it seems that not all Chelsea players understand how to act in such situations.
For example, after playing a standard, the ball fell to Eze and it was unclear why he was alone in the penalty area with the ball and none of the Chelsea players were around.

Jackson to become one of the top strikers in the league? That’s some statement, he seems to miss lots of chances in every game.

Regarding Osimhen, his agent must be a dick. I can’t see why nobody wants him. There must be external factors that are turning big clubs away from him because based on talent alone, there aren’t many strikers better than him.

[fullhdpixel]

In the last season I have been defensive of Manchester United coach, for the fact that he had so many lapses in his players especially the defense line which almost all the players were inconsistent due to injuries. But then Erik10 has many things to prove this season that he has somewhat got a good squad. Even if the squad is not good enough as people might think that a top club like Manchester United should be, but the current squad I have seen is fair enough to face any team in the English Premier League, if they have the best man as the head coach. Eric 10 make some mistakes last season when he had injuries of players, instead of bringing the young talents on board he chose to swap the old talent to play them in inappropriate wings and he paid for it. This season is pretty new and it seems he will start such a thing again. But then, I am not so much bothered because the FA Cup he won helped him to escape sack last season, I wonder what his fate will be this season even in his post match conferences, he isn't close to admitting that he is part of the fault of the team.

My advice to Erik is for him to up his game and take charge, whether positive or negative outcome he shouldn't shift blames and he should try to improve in his decision making.

I feel like he is just purely a bad manager and that's it, but that doesn't mean that they will end up being terrible this season, we should wait a bit longer. It has been just three games so far, and while I know that losing to Brighton was a bad one, it was a very last minute one, and while I know many fans hate his player choices, I still think that he is going to be much better eventually.

We need to just wait, I am not saying he will get good, he is bad and he will be bad, but United is good, players are good, and they are going to get better results, even with a bad manager this team is too good to finish like last season. Losing to Liverpool is nothing, Liverpool is a great team and it's normal to lose to them, and the only game that was disappointing was Brighton game.

I think they will keep on winning, if they fire ETH and get someone better then they would do even better, but they will do fine even with him, so there shouldn't be any worries at all.

And again the Liverpool side are too fast for Manchester United players to stop them from getting into their 18 yard box, nobody to help out the man whom I believe they'll blame Casemiro, fine it wasn't one of his days but he tried to cover the team but he alone can't do that job perfectly well. The other little man Mainoo that the English commentators have used over hyping to kill could not do anything to help Casemiro in that midfield since Bruno Fernandes is playing the false 9 and he can't do much in any where he plays.

Liverpool did well honestly, I want to give them all the credit for that win yesterday, Arne Slot knew Manchester United power was within the midfielders.
Casemiro was the fault isn't it? When you look at the build up to that first and second goal scored by Liverpool, you'd see that he was the cause to them goals. Kobbie Mainoo played as DM during the second half of the game which wasn't his best position, don't go blaming a player who didn't do well of his position yesterday, it's a wrong way to make analysis even though player'sare meant to make sacrifices for the club.
I'm not even sure you watched the game because Bruno Fernandez didn't play as a false nine during that game yesterday, you only misinforming people here which is wrong.

When you see a midfield that's not strong the opponent won't waste time to take advantage of the whole situation, Manchester United main problem is the midfield and the Liverpool coach knew about it that's why you see Man UTD not steady with the ball. Mainoo is still young and the way they push him to get into crucial games is really not how to go about it, I think UTD need to give him that suppose like letting him come in as a sub for even Casemiro because the Brazilian is not really doing too well. I'll blame him for the two goals because he wasn't active like he used to be back then at Madrid, I think he should be replaced in that midfield to reduce the mistakes because Mainoo can't handle those pressure alone.
As for me saying Bruno played the false 9, do you know it seems like the Portuguese did while I never noticed the presence of the new attacker Joshua Zirkzee. I know I made a mistake which I admit unlike you, but you can't start assuming I didn't watch the game and you saying I'm misinforming people is never deliberate so sometimes make the correction and stop making people look like they don't know what they're saying, is as if you're faultless. After all Joshua Zirkzee only big chance was that header him missed so he wasn't even effective in the game.

If a Truth the issue around Manchester United isn't a regular one, there are some complexity that can be traced around it, somehow after seeing that game yesterday, I had this strong urge for Manchester United to literally embark on an overhauling of the  team because almost every aspect of the team was filled with so much of unorganized and patterns less play, the few good players are even flopping gradually because they have dwelled so long in an environment that isn't supportive of improvement greatly, it's very possible if some of these player's exit Manchester United they may do better out there. At the euros 2023 I could see manio doing so well but back now in Manchester United he's just liked to a floppy which shouldn't be at all.

When players come to Manchester United it is quite rare that they end up showing significant progress. except for a few players but unfortunately some of these players are currently still injured. Like Hojlund and Mount. And then their new defender who showed very good quality in pre-season was also injured, namely Yoro. The point is that when this team starts to find suitable players it is always followed by bad luck such as player injuries or other things. Even last season, several internal problems among the players also occurred. The point is, this club always has complex problems. So it is not clear whether this is due to the trainer's poor performance or whether there is something else. But what I clearly see as a weakness in this squad is that the chemistry is not formed perfectly. This team has high quality players. Unfortunately everything has not been maximized until now. Even their attack line doesn't look that sharp. as if this team is not filled with star players.

Manchester United are currently experiencing a very tough challenge. Having injuries to some of the key players is indeed a big impediment to the maximum performance of the team. But then injuries are a part of football and every team at one point will for sure face such a situation.

Chemistry-wise, this is a key element that needs development. Even if the team is made up of good quality players, without a well-developed bond it becomes rather hard to achieve the synergy that is needed to be implanted as an effective unit. The coach's performance must also have some influence, but creating a truly seamless and cohesive team requires effort and time.

All that can be hoped for now is for the injured players to recover quickly and return to contributing. Plus, the team has to focus on building chemistry and improving the attack line so that it can be sharper and more effective. The journey is still long; with a little luck and hard work, they still have a chance to bounce back.

The other little man Mainoo that the English commentators have used over hyping to kill could not do anything to help Casemiro in that midfield since Bruno Fernandes is playing the false 9 and he can't do much in any where he plays.

That's right, Liverpool played much faster so that Man United players seemed confused and did not know what to do. So far this has only criticized Man United's poor performance for the final result of this match and on the other hand we also have to see that Liverpool's performance has developed a lot and Arne Slot deserves appreciation, so far he has been quite successful in continuing the performance of the Liverpool team even though he has not made many changes since his arrival as Liverpool coach.

Arne Slot is just different to be honest, I wasn't expecting them to be this good because no much addition was made after Klopp left the side and they still have that force in them to go into games and get the result required. If this is how Manchester United will operate then other teams will have to use the Liverpool method against them (The Red Devils), that's to rush then making sure the midfield isn't comfortable with the ball and then you're winning the game.
From 3 games 3 wins is something we have to applaud the new manager of the Reds, because is not easy to come into the EPL for the first time and get this kind of result, I hope the international break won't have any negative effect like some long lasting injuries that will affect the Liverpool team, that's where the main problem comes in, until they get back.

And with the bad results obtained in the first two matches, it makes many people pessimistic again about the red devils in hunting for the EPL title.

Chelsea are gradually coping with Nicolas Jackson and I also believe he's going to be one of the best strikers in the English Premier League. He just needs more time to build up and become formidable in sectional rounds. Chelsea needs a top striker in the club and Victor Osimhen was one of the top priority to sign but everything turn out to become poor for the club. Osimhen declined the offer following the wages structure of the team, it reduced heavily and this was not suitable on the part of the played. Osimhen has best reasons for turning down these deals and having to focus on other priorities.

Chelsea have no other option than to keep and adapt to Jackson’s situation, they need to coach him very well in order to be consistent so that he can be of help to the team since their were unable to sign Victor Osimhen.
Jackson’s problem is inconsistency, he is not reliable because he can do better today and flops tomorrow, but if he is consistent, he is a good striker that knows how to play ball.
Ranking him among the best strikers in the EPL is not proper, he is a good striker but behind several strikers like Haaland, Watkins, and others.

Josefjix, I was okay till you said

"lso believe he's going to be one of the best strikers in the English Premier League"

- bro just chill. Nicholas Jackson just scored a goal, that too in a home match against Crystal Palace. It's really not that deep. Their whole squad is kinda messed up right now, they need a lot of help in fixing a lot of things they haven't sorted out yet.

Jackson has a high ceiling, I'd definitely agree with something like that. But for him to become one of the best strikers in EPL? He has a long, very long way to go. Chelsea could not even get past Palace at home. That's not so good on their part, just to say the least. I think if Jackson plays a lot of minutes this season, he can rack up somewhere around 12-15 goals. If he exceeds that, he will be remembered by Chelsea fans.

[Obim34]

What's wrong with Chelsea and Man United? The beginning of the season is lacking enthusiasm for both top teams. Man United appeared without any resistance at home but it doesn't matter, the most important thing is that my prediction was right. But the problem is that Chelsea couldn't take advantage of every opportunity they had when playing against Crystal Palace who were in bad shape. I thought they could at least score 3 goals without conceding. But it turned out to be difficult to predict Chelsea inconsistent performance at the beginning of this season.

I think the problem between Chelsea and Man United is consistency. But there is a difference between Chelsea and Man United. Chelsea's squad is clearly filled with young players and their coach is also new so it takes time to perform consistently. What's funny is about Manchester United where their game has not developed from season to season even though they have brought in several new players. I think Manchester United should have fired Erik ten Hag because his coaching style is not suitable to be applied at Manchester United.

In my opinion I think what is wrong with Chelsea at this moment might be more than consistency, the coach is tactically inclined but his choice of starting Jackson and benching Nkunku, I know that Jackson is better as a winger, always getting good chances but he misses majority that supposingly should add up to the outcome of the game. We can see Nkunku performance in the club friendlies, his performance was quite good so I think that he should be on the starting eleven of the team rather than Jackson.

So, the problem of Manchester United is not basically the coach but players, fact about football is having that few numbers of goal scoring opportunities and making good use of them instead of having many and make no better outcome, Bruno, Casemiro and a few has missed enough chances to  secure them several winnings.

I think we have given Ten Hag enough excuses already Manchester United had numerous injury crisis last season and this transfer window the thing they did was to try and sign new players to fill in this space, they had the center back position porous last season with Martinez and Varane playing few minutes, this season they signed two center Backs to cover up those spaces, the both Yoro and De Ligt are fantastic signings now only Yoro is injured with Lindelof who hardly gets playing time, that doesn’t shows any crisis to me as long as there are back ups, then they signed Mazourrai as Wan Bissaka replacement which is good but there biggest undoing was the left back position which it’s replacement.

Now to the striking Role Hojlund, has always been injured the best thing was to actually sign a better replacement and they didn’t do that and went for someone who wasn’t an outfield striker and they had to sign him so the blame is on the coaching crew now and not on injuries

Jackson will be one of the best strikers in the Premier League? Is this the same Jackson I know about missing a lot of chances? Do you believe he'll improve in the coming years? Jackson isn't a striker, and Chelsea is just forcing him to play that position, I'm wondering about the performance Chelsea saw in him that encouraged them to sign him from his previous team, since last season I haven't seen a striker miss many opportunities as Jackson. However, Jackson's contract with Chelsea has been extended until 2033, aside from Haaland, which another striker in the Premier League deserves a contract extension? I don't think Chelsea wants to participate in the European competitions next season to extend Jackson's contract, it seems that they want him to end his career at the club because no team will be interested in signing a striker who is good at missing opportunities. I believe that if they had a striker like Haaland against Crystal Palace, they would have scored in extra time, I don't think Jackson's current performance will get any better.

[Swordsoffreedom]

We can see Nkunku performance in the club friendlies, his performance was quite good so I think that he should be on the starting eleven of the team rather than Jackson.

I won't argue that Jackson is a talented player. He can play well enough. But we have seen in the last few matches that he misses even easy chances. This is likely due to Jackson's inexperience. Perhaps Jackson's performance would improve if Jackson were given more opportunities. But the problem is that if Jackson is given more opportunities, we will see Chelsea's overall performance deteriorate. If Jackson could perform well, I think we would have seen more consistent performances from Chelsea. I don't know why the coach is not using Nkunku as Jackson's replacement. I think Nakunku can perform better than Jackson. Moreover, Chelsea coach Enzo did not keep a talented player like Joao Felix in the starting XI.

So, the problem of Manchester United is not basically the coach but players, fact about football is having that few numbers of goal scoring opportunities and making good use of them instead of having many and make no better outcome, Bruno, Casemiro and a few has missed enough chances to  secure them several winnings.

Sorry I can't agree with you. I would agree with you if this was Ten Hag's first season with Manchester United. This is Ten Hag's third season with Manchester United. He had enough time, opportunity and funds to change the overall status of Manchester United. Even then, Ten Hag was not successful. We know there are plenty of problems within Manchester United's squad. And it is the coach's responsibility to solve these problems. But the coach failed to resolve the issues.

They might be planning ahead of time incase they don't have the opportunity to sign new players next season and extend contracts. They're extending their players contracts not due to they played very well but because they want to act smart. Their owners are more interested in business and not how to manage the club. They want everything they do to be good in financial aspect. Jackson is trash and anybody saying he isn't is a Chelsea fan and wants him to play well for them. I don't mind if he improves but he should work more on scoring and not missing chances as that is making his worth to reduced.

Yeah I will not say that it is fully the fault of the coach or fully the mistake of players but both have to be blamed.
Manchester United didn't change him although they were many threats to do it by the end of the season.
Ten Hag is able to make some modifications in the team and squad or else it will be a hard season if he cannot collaborate with his players well..

[Moreno233]

The injuries of some players are just an alibi, now the league is running but Erik Ten Hag failed to do something well. If there are players who are injured then the replacement must also be equivalent and he can also apply other strategies if it is very urgent. I think it is useless for United management who have spent quite a lot of money in the last few seasons but have not gotten a big change in the team's performance. And with the bad results obtained in the first two matches, it makes many people pessimistic again about the red devils in hunting for the EPL title.

Beside the injuries of some of the key players, I think something is fundamentally wrong with Manchester United. If it is not a psychological problem, it will not be far from it because it's been long they lost it already and it is taking them too long to bounce back to being the strong team they use to be. For several years now, Manchester United have been degraded to an average team that offers no serious fight against their equals. The Manchester United that was strong will not lose to Brighton and at the same time to Liverpool in a season that is as young as we have now. The coach and management have to do something about the mentality of the players.

I have my own ideas about Manchester United. Ten Hag probably wanted Hojlund at the center of their attack this season. And Hojlund's injury has put Ten Hag in big trouble. And this is why Manchester United's performance is poor. Hojlund's injury forced Ten Hag to change its formation and match strategy. Ten Hag are yet to find the right match strategy for Manchester United.

We've seen Ten Hag use Bruno Fernandes as Hojlund's replacement in a few matches. This poor decision by Ten Hag caused Bruno's performance to deteriorate. This is why we have seen inconsistent and poor performances from Manchester United's midfield and attacking players.

Perhaps we will see an improvement in Manchester United's performance after Hojlund joins the squad. But this team is not eligible to win the title. Even qualifying for the Champions League will be very difficult for Manchester United. Brighton's overall performance is still much more stable than Manchester United's.
