Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

It is indeed difficult to find another qualified coach, especially when the season is already underway, of course it will be very risky for Manchester United management so they are reluctant to produce Erik Ten Hag. I am very disappointed with the management's decision to maintain Manchester United but there are no other steps that are good for the team, so it is likely that this season there will be no development for Manchester United and the possibility of Ten Hag being able to revive the Manchester United team which is currently slumping is very small because in the last few seasons Ten Hag has never been able to even though he has made many improvements.

Ten Hag is a coach who is very lacking in tactics to make Manchester United players develop better this season and that has been very evident at the beginning of this season. I think Manchester United fans do not need to expect anything bigger and also more this season at Manchester United, because just being able to survive in the Premier League for next season is already very grateful. This season everyone has clearly seen that the Manchester United team is indeed slumping and other teams are experiencing a very good revival like Chelsea, so clearly there is nothing to expect from Manchester United other than hoping to get a new coach this season.

It would not be wrong if Liverpool brought in Arne as a replacement for Klopp. Because, Arne has proven capable of continuing to bring Liverpool success in the Premier League. Even currently Liverpool is quite firmly at the top of the Premier League standings. This is clear proof that Arne's performance at Liverpool is very good. Because it is true that Liverpool's current players have been trained and prepared well by Klopp. However, if for example Klopp's replacement coach does not have good skills, it could be that Klopp's team at Liverpool will actually perform poorly. Because there are many examples of clubs that used to shine, but after changing coaches their performance got worse, even though the squad was the same. So that Arne can maintain the consistency of Liverpool's performance, which can be said to be a very extraordinary thing. Because of course training big name players requires firmness and an approach that is not easy. But what surprised me was that Arne already had very good chemistry with the Liverpool players. Even though Arne has only been Liverpool coach for a few months.

The most enjoyable thing for Liverpool this season is when they have a replacement coach who is also equally great in terms of quality. Arne Slot not only changed tactics but he managed to continue the legacy left by Jurgen Klopp. Liverpool is in the most ideal situation to win trophies, the Reds can compete with Man City and Arsenal this season thanks to the very right policy from Liverpool's top brass. Not many clubs that have just brought in a coach can immediately sync like Arne Slot with Liverpool. The transition process they went through was quite successful.

Difficult to find a couch that would replace Ten Hang? I don't think it's that difficult but Manchester united board is not really interested in finding a replacement for Ten Hang at the moment. Several qualified couches are out there without job presently and I'm very sure some of them will be very much interested in the job.

I read somewhere yesterday that they are planning on bringing back Ole gunner and the last interview of Ole that I watched, he responded positively when asked whether he will be interested to take a job at united when call upon and the old man was very delighted from his response. Although, bringing back former couch is not ideal in my opinion after seeing what happened with Frank Lampard on his returning back to Chelsea after his first disappointment.

However, I do believe that Ole would make a better decision as compared to Ten Hang at the moment because Ten Hang seems to be confused and depressed. The pressure and criticism alone from the fans and media houses is enough to make him depressed and run out of ideas. Things are really getting worse for him but I hope the break will give him some relief and make a fresh start when the league resumes.

It seems you've forgotten that in the last two seasons, Manchester City spent lesser days at the top of the English Premier League table than Arsenal but still went on to win the English Premier League title at the end of the seasons. Manchester City are just 1 point being current league leaders Liverpool and that's not a difficult task for Pep Guardiola's men to turn things around and move to the top. They've done it in the past and with the Spanish manager as the club's coach, they can still repeat it again. So for me, Manchester City remains the favorites to win the league this season

Liverpool and Arsenal will try to do their best this season and I am sure they will try to break Manchester City's dominance with all their efforts. Of course a one-point difference is not that difficult for Pep Guardiola to catch up, but if Liverpool can continue to play consistently then it will be difficult for Manchester City to do. It is not certain that in the next match Manchester City can continue to secure full points and vice versa with Liverpool and Arsenal. Anything is still possible and at this point it is difficult to say who has a better chance of becoming a candidate for the title.

It's one thing to see a problem and another to know how to fix it. I think ten Hag has done his best and I have no doubt he has tried his best but if he can't improve the team then we need to find someone who can. Ten Hag is asking for more time but I think he's had plenty of time and things are only getting worse so I don't see the point in waiting until the end of the season to do what needs to be done now. Chelsea sacked Pochettino even though he was making obvious progress, I don't understand why Manchester United are taking so long to make this decision.

Exactly the point,  identifying a problem can also be seen as a good approach to solving a problem itself but figuring out ways of solving identified problems is what makes an individual a good strategist, personally I understand that at this point Eric Ten Hag has run of ideas though it is normal when you keep trying without no result, giving him more time will bring no good results and it is as good as trial in futility, Manchester United shouldn't give him such time unless he prove them wrong in few matches from now, if not, he shouldn't be given such time to keep drowning the club, the major competition that Manchester United is into which is English premiership and UEL has been misrepresented by the team and if they continue like this, they will end the season with a very devastating results, so anyone considering what the manager is saying is doing that to his or her own peril.

The management should do what's expected of them to do now because the lane Manchester United is going doesn't tell well about them, the manager of every team is the pillar and the master idealogist of what happens in the football peach so once they strategist fails in strategizing towards a successful end, the only option left will be to show him the exit do and bring in new brain for the job, though the job isn't easy but that's what he has signed to do so since he has been found wanting in carrying out his responsibilities perfectly, there is nothing left than for him to be replaced immediately.

Meeting over;
Erik Ten Hang still incharge;
Manchester United inconsistent performance continues;
Fans will continue to lament;
Bettors will continue to lose money;
Manchester United will end worse than last season in the table;
Erik Ten Hang will still be sacked, but when it's too late for Manchester United.

This is sad news for Manchester United fans they are now stocked with Ten Hag for an additional time I don’t know how long but it will still be a terrible experience for the fans. What is the board thinking? Are they not seeing how bad the team is performing or they don’t think it’s the fault of the manager.

With Ten Hag still the manager i agree with you, the inconsistency of the team will continue, Fans will keep complaining about the poor performances but as for bettors losing money i don’t think a lot of them will keep betting on them after all the poor performances except the stupid ones. I cannot bet on an Manchester United except when i have to bet against them when they play against a good team that seems like the only thing to do when they are involved but sometimes they will still surprise you and play well when they are not supposed to.

Liverpool increasing performance since being coached by Arne Slot has become a threat to Manchester City, who have always dominated the EPL, Arsenal have also started to spread threats with impressive performances. Pep Guardiola must focus more on developing his squad and avoid the slightest mistake so as not to lose points in matches that should be easily won to maintain the competition at the top of the standings. The increasing rivalry in the hunt for the title is making the competition even more challenging and tense, currently the difference in points between the three clubs is not too significant, there is a possibility of a change in position in several future matches if they are unable to maintain their best performance.

Haaland and Lewandowski are great attacking players, on their good days they can easily score 2 or 3 goals.
There is no other player in the Premier League who can even come close to Haland's goal score, the difference has already increased a lot, just look at it, he has scored 4 more goals than the closest players.

The most enjoyable thing for Liverpool this season is when they have a replacement coach who is also equally great in terms of quality. Arne Slot not only changed tactics but he managed to continue the legacy left by Jurgen Klopp. Liverpool is in the most ideal situation to win trophies, the Reds can compete with Man City and Arsenal this season thanks to the very right policy from Liverpool's top brass. Not many clubs that have just brought in a coach can immediately sync like Arne Slot with Liverpool. The transition process they went through was quite successful.

Small achievements matters but why do I feel like they are doing alot to fix Arne Slot in a position he hasn't reach? After all this, it doesn't make any sense if he doesn't win either the Premier League or the Champions League, that's what matter to the club and all this are personal stats which at the end of the day, doesn't matter if you don't bring home any of the trophy for the club and fans to celebrate.

Last season, Klopp was up there maintaining the first place and Manchester City were having it rough but by the time they had enough of it, they came and collect their place. So far, even the players are right behind with highest goal, Haaland is two times goal scorer than Salah and they are celebrating 10 matches when they are supposed to be making gaps and leave Manchester City behind but I love the game as long as Guardiola always lead.

Liverpool management were very lucky in their decision to sign Arne Slot as a replacement for Jurgen Klopp, the manager come and adapt to the team as quick as possible and his performance so far was really impressive because he is doing what we didn't expect from him as a new manager that has never coached any big teams in the Premier League or any top team among the Europe top Leagues.

Liverpool is now among the top teams we are expecting to fight for the Premier League title along side Arsenal and Manchester City, and even though Liverpool is yet to play against any of the big teams in the EPL, I think he will still get some points out of the games because he is a good coach that knows how to win a match.

It is undeniable that every season Haaland always contributes many goals for Man City. Yes, he is a machine on the field, 10 goals in 7 matches that have been played means he is very sharp as a striker, but the current conditions are different with the absence of Rodri and KDB Haaland cannot get a supply of spoiled balls, it can be seen in the two Man City matches he did not score a single goal.
On the other hand, I am more impressed with Cole Palmer even though he has only scored 6 goals but the assists he has received are 5 making him the second most assists so far.
This indicates that he is active in scoring and providing assists.

[Chilwell]

Assuming their positions and point gap on the table is when the league is left with 10 matches, it would have been more challenging than now. It is a good start for these three clubs currently for the title race because whoever loses more than one match might fall very low on the table since most clubs are very active.

Manchester City might not be previledged to take over any club that is on top towards the end of the season because they have learnt their lessons and will be more careful at that time. If Manchester City is able to repeat same thing this season, then EPL is not the same again.

We shouldn't have to wait for the last ten matches of this season before it will look challenging, I think the earlier the better if more points have been accumulated I think that gave the club relief to play the remaining season with rest of mind, but to me it is actually challenging because the club behind are also pushing so hard to take the place, like Chelsea and Aston Villa are really fighting for the fourth place which I'm very confidence that Chelsea can overtake then with their consistent winnings.

Regarding Manchester City taking over the table at the end of season I doubted it because their performance then was far far better than now and the performance of Arsenal and Liverpool as improved compared to that previous season, even though Manchester City will manage to win the trophy it will not be as easy as they did in the past.

[Spaceman1000$]

MU management has always hesitated to fire Ten Hag. If MU continues to have a waste of a season, don't blame Erik Ten Hag. Those who decide to keep the Dutch coach will bear the greatest responsibility. The management of directors has been very strong in reforming MU, except for the head coach position. MU needs a head coach with enough caliber and talent. I see that after all that has happened, Ten Hag has not shown that he deserves to sit in the hot seat at Old Trafford. And I affirm that MU players are no longer fighting for coach Erik Ten Hag. It seems they have stopped fighting for the coach, but they should still fight for the club and the fans.

I think the main problem why the MU board has not fired Ten Hag is simply because there is no one suitable at the moment to replace him. Who will have enough talent and courage to not be able to withstand the pressure of leading the current MU?

It is indeed difficult to find another qualified coach, especially when the season is already underway, of course it will be very risky for Manchester United management so they are reluctant to produce Erik Ten Hag. I am very disappointed with the management's decision to maintain Manchester United but there are no other steps that are good for the team, so it is likely that this season there will be no development for Manchester United and the possibility of Ten Hag being able to revive the Manchester United team which is currently slumping is very small because in the last few seasons Ten Hag has never been able to even though he has made many improvements.

First of all, there so many coaches in Europe who are not only suitable but also capable of rescuing the club from the current situation they are facing, secondly it is not difficult to find a qualified coach as there are many of them all over europe including England with proven records who can and are willing to bring back the club to her glory days despite the fact that the season is already underway. If there's anytime suitable to introduce a new coach to the team then it should now because the introduction of a new coach will spark a new flame in the dressing room that will in turn ignite within the team thereby affecting the output of the players, we saw this happen to Chelsea when they won their first champions league against Bayern Munich after André Villas-Boas was sacked and then Roberto Di Matteo took over on interim basis and went on to win the champions League that year.

If the right coach is appointed to replace Erik Ten Hag then the sooner the better. It's just that now Man United has undergone 10% of the Premier League so there is only gambling when replacing Erik Ten Hag with a new coach. The game scheme has been running according to what is applied by the coach and if replaced then the risk of having to rearrange is clearly not easy. But keeping Erik Ten Hag until the end of the season is much riskier. Just choose which option is the least risky. After all, I don't care anymore whether to find a new coach or not, what is clear is that Man United is in a difficult circle to get out of trouble.

EPL is gradually becoming a farmer's league if you ask me because how on earth will presences of elite clubs becomes zero threats for just one particular club? Manchester City dominates the league and its very important for these clubs to understand the principles and strength of the Champions. Manchester City will continue to dominate since there's no presence of pre-eminent rival except for Arsenal that's actually doing their best.

There's good odds when it comes to elite clubs. We know the desirable clubs to win matches and the ones that will fall in the relegation zone this season. It's all matter of time for these clubs to bounce back to prominent form. While for Pep Guardiola, he is tactical and experienced, he's giving his best every season. What do we have to acknowledge about the English Premier League? Manchester City will reclaim the title again this season, no doubt about that if you ask me.

This indicates that he is active in scoring and providing assists.

Both players are pure strikers who have been quite sharp all this time and they just need a chance which in the end 99% will be goals, Haalaand has so far managed to become the top scorer in the Premier League and this season he has the opportunity to break the record as the top scorer in the Premier League in a row, his sharpness in my opinion is really extraordinary,  So it is indeed quite lucky that Manchester City can get Haalaand from Dortmund even at a high price previously because he can be even better than Aguero, the spearhead of Manchester City, indeed we cannot deny that his current ability to score 10 goals in 7 matches cannot be separated from the contribution of De Bruyne and Rodri so that the absence of the two players actually affects the flow of the ball to Haaland and it can be seen from the last two matches where He did not score.

Cole Palmer also deserves a thumbs up, despite scoring only 6 goals, but his contribution in providing assists shows that he is a versatile player and very influential in the current Chelsea game, since his arrival from Manchester City, he has been one of the key players in creating chances and goals for the Blues.

Manchester City dominates the league and its very important for these clubs to understand the principles and strength of the Champions. Manchester City will continue to dominate since there's no presence of pre-eminent rival except for Arsenal that's actually doing their best.

I don't believe what you say and I can never believe that Premier League is becoming a farmers league because of how well competitive the League is becoming every season.

Several leagues have teams that are always known to be in the top three of their table every season, while in EPL, you will hardly predict top four or even top seven because of the number of big teams in the league and the number of small teams that are coming up every season to drag positions with the top EPL teams.

Manchester City is indeed the best team, they have dominated the league for the past five years and they won the premier league title four times in a row, but the last two season was hard for them because Arsenal woke up after some season to be their top competitor since Liverpool lost form two seasons back, and last season, it was a battle between Manchester City, Liverpool, and Arsenal which they narrowly won the league in the final match of the season.

There's good odds when it comes to elite clubs. We know the desirable clubs to win matches and the ones that will fall in the relegation zone this season. It's all matter of time for these clubs to bounce back to prominent form. While for Pep Guardiola, he is tactical and experienced, he's giving his best every season. What do we have to acknowledge about the English Premier League? Manchester City will reclaim the title again this season, no doubt about that if you ask me.

It has started to be hard for him since last season, and this season he has dropped some points already due to injury of two of his key players. I think Pep Guardiola and Manchester City cannot win the premier league title this season, the EPL will be won by either Liverpool or Arsenal according to my predictions based on current squad and performances of the respective teams.

[dzungmobile]

Ten Hag is a coach who is very lacking in tactics to make Manchester United players develop better this season and that has been very evident at the beginning of this season.

Ten Hag can be a good coach and done great job in Ajax Amsterdam but in a bigger club like Manchester United, with bigger pressure and expectation, he fails. I see no chance for Ten Hag to succeed in Manchester United because three seasons are enough for a coach to set up many things and start to harvest good results. In Manchester United, Ten Hag was given a lot of money to buy players and with abundant budget like this, it's unacceptable with results they got so far with his management.

I think Manchester United fans do not need to expect anything bigger and also more this season at Manchester United, because just being able to survive in the Premier League for next season is already very grateful.

Especially with very considerable budget spent for player transfers, Manchester United don't expect poor performances and very low rank in Premier League like this. Their position in Premier League now is more fitted with an averaged club with small transfer budget and don't have a competitive squad.

Unbelievable, Slot is being a coach with the best stats in the first 10 EPL matches in Liverpool's history. He has recorded the most wins compared to Liverpool's old managers in their history. I feel so nice to see him excel this way as a new manager at Liverpool.  I think he would do well behind Klopp's legacy team and knowing how good he is as a new coach.

Slot has better start than many coaches in Liverpool history including Klopp, but let's recall that in first seasons of Klopp, Liverpool did not finish with high positions. Klopp needed time to build up Liverpool squad and Slot will need time to win titles with them. He is performing well but winning titles is more challenging. If he won't win titles with Liverpool in this season, they will need to give him more time.

Maybe for Slot for Liverpool with a top 4 finish it is quite a good achievement even if not with the title, I know it will be tight but if Slot is able to achieve for his first season then history will be different for Liverpool.

So far Slot has only continued the existing players and built in the Jurgen Klopp era and the squad has pretty good depth so Slot can only re-work how the game becomes consistent throughout this season.

But we need to see a full season of Arne Slot's achievements and how they have a career in the UCL with Liverpool too.
