Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[SatoPrincess]

There has been a obvious improvement in Manchester United’s play under interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy compared to Erik Ten Hag’s tenure, I still think the match would likely have ended in a draw, especially given that encounters between these two clubs have historically produced the most draws in the Premier League. Even though United have shown better form under Ruud van Nistelrooy, they shouldn’t let it go to their heads instead, they should focus on securing Champions League qualification for next season and possibly winning the Europa League this year.

It is very clear that under the interim coach, Man United looks better in terms of play and in yesterday's match against Chelsea, I saw Man United players look calmer, they just need to improve their attack line a little. I think Van Nistelrooy would be suitable to accompany Amorim as an assistant coach, although I read in the newspaper that Amorim will bring two of his assistants who worked with him at Sporting CP, but Van Nistelrooy cannot be ruled out, he will be needed to at least speed up Amorim's adaptation when coaching Man United later. And indeed the realistic target for Man United this season is to get a ticket to the UCL at the end of the season besides that in the European league which is currently being played with the arrival of a new coach, it is hoped that it will improve its position in the standings table.

For Amorim to succeed at a club like Manchester United, he would need to prove that he can handle the intense pressure, motivate a team with diverse talents, and establish a consistent, winning strategy. His victory over City is impressive, but only time and experience will show if he’s truly ready to lead a team of United’s caliber back to the top. It would certainly be interesting to see how he fares, but for now, he remains a promising coach who is not yet in the same league as the likes of Guardiola.

Pressure at Manchester United is bigger than at Sporting Lisbon and any young coach has to grow up his coach career this way. Amorim will have to step on this way too, challenge himself, beat pressure and hit a new milestone for his career, not only by taking a job at a bigger club like Manchester United, but also succeed there.

A big victory against Manchester City in Champions League, days before his official job start in Manchester United, is very big booster for his confidence at his new club. Manchester United also see a lot of hope with this coach from his big win against Manchester City. If Manchester United can succeed to come back as one of strongest clubs in Premier League, it's good for them and for the league. Guardiola seems to go to the end of his era in Manchester City, some signals of failures recent months and he doesn't have style to stay for so long at one club.

With Manchester United it will be different, the pressure is higher and also Man United is a team that has been slumping for a long time and even for several seasons and some coaches have not been able to meet the expectations of fans and also the targets of Manchester United management.
Ruben Amorim has indeed shown that he is a quality coach with Sporting Lisbon but I doubt that he can do that right away with Man United, maybe he needs more time to adapt to build the Man United team and certainly this is not an easy job for Ruben Amorim.

Yes, there will be different pressures that Ruben Amorim will feel at a big club like Manchester United. And it is clear that the pressure will feel heavier than at the previous club, namely Sporting CP. But if Ruben Amorim continues to be accompanied by Van Nistelrooy then I'm sure he will get used to it quickly there. I just hope he doesn't suffer the same fate as Erik Ten Hag. because Erik Ten Hag also had good achievements when he was at the Ajax club but apparently he was still unable to bring a team as big as Manchester United to higher performance. Because not all coaches can handle a big team like Manchester United.

I also think so Amorin is one of the talented young coaches from him being an assistant coach at Braga even though he was there as a coach but he had not yet obtained his coaching license but he managed to bring Braga to win the trophy at that time, if you look back Amorin is a coach who has talent, so I think he has a good mission from him to be brought to Man United, but again what he trained is a big club Man United I don't doubt the coach but I doubt the Man United players because they are too spoiled they seem to eat big salaries blindly there is no potential shown in every match and I hope Amorin can make the Man United players change and introspect with their own behavior.

Amorin is a young coach what he said after beating Man City looks like he is used to the English media and I think his mentality is maintained especially since he has known this club since he was an intern at Man United when Mourinho used to be so he understands the situation and I really hope Amorin can revive Man United.

The problem MU is currently facing is consistency, they sometimes win perfectly but at other times draw and even lose. When we look at material players, MU has players who have above-average abilities. their ability to play individually and dribble a ball looks good when we compare it to Manchester City. They just need to be guided to consistent and looking forward to how to give accurate pressure. I am enough optimistic that Amorim can realize it because when I look at how they manage sporting and win with many different goals when facing the city, Amorim will give his ability to build a messed up team like MU.

This means that Ruben Amorim only needs a strategy that suits the playing style of Man United players so that they can restore their performance to be better at the same time as they can play solidly and slowly start to improve their performance and become consistent in winning. Sporting's victory over Man City impressed me even though Sporting players did not seem as good as Man City players but Ruben Amorim was able to apply good tactics and could read the tactics given by Pep to Man City and finally beat them, this is not a coincidence I think Ruben Amorim is indeed the right choice for MU.

The hopes of the Red Devils fans are of course that Ruben Amorim can revive his beloved team and return to a performance that matches its nickname, but it is indeed not easy to bring a team to experience drastic changes. Previously they experienced a slump that was indeed quite bad and detrimental to them, and I think Ruben Amorim will not be able to quickly bring his team to a consistent and better performance, it takes a long time to adapt, this is a natural thing.

The fans of this team have high hopes for Ruben Amorim to be able to make his team rise with good performance and shine in the EPL.

It takes adaptation and maybe it takes time for any coach to change Manchester United for the better because expecting success in a short time I doubt Ruben Amorim can do it. But usually management will not give a long time and they will demand more expectations from Ruben Amorim to bring Manchester United out of the slump. Even though he was successful at Sporting Lisbon, the English league is very different and maybe he needs to work harder to change the team for the better.

Looking back at Ferguson's journey at Manchester United has similarities with Ruben Amorim and maybe now the story is different because the league is getting more competitive. Give him time to work and we'll see how he can make a big difference from the previous coach.

Manchester United's overall squad is not in good condition. Bonding between squad players is very weak. In 10 matches, Manchester United's players managed to score only 9 goals and conceded 12 goals. Manchester United has a strong squad. But due to the weak bonding between the players, they are not able to perform well. At the same time, the performance of their defenders is also very poor.

Manchester United's new coach must try to strengthen the bonding between the players. If the understanding between players is good then we will see better performance from Manchester United players. Every player in Manchester United's squad is very talented. Manchester United's performance will improve only if these players are used properly.

Maybe they are just lacking in putting pressure on their opponents, and with Amorim this might help them to rise again from their slump. However, with the news I found about Amorim stating that he could not fully implement the sporting style of play at Manchester United. I think there is a possibility that they can rise again from their slump, because I think Amorim can provide good education to his team. In addition, there are several Manchester United players who can shine under Amorim's guidance, with them Alejandro Garnacho, Diogo Dalot, Rasmus Hojlund, Manuel Ugarte, and Bruno Fernandes. With their respective skills I think Amorim will give them more training.

Yes, that's true because if Amorim brings the style of play from the previous team and will be applied to MU, it will not go well. And I'm sure Amorim understands how competitive the competition in the EPL is and must have a really deep strategy.
Amorim only needs an understanding to explore some of the obstacles that must be removed from MU and also provide a little change to create stability in Man United performance.
If Amorim succeeds in the next 10 or so matches, I might believe that he is able to bring MU back to its glory days.

To be honest I thought Manchester United management would hire an experienced coach. But Manchester United management appointed 39-year-old Rúben Amorim as their new coach. Rúben Amorim is talented enough but not experienced enough. And I agree with you that the Premier League is very competitive. Rúben Amorim will definitely have to apply new match tactics if he wants to stay in the competition here.

Manchester United's squad is in a very shaky state right now. Bonding between players is weak. Manchester United's match strategy is also not good. So Rúben Amorim will definitely have to work hard to improve the overall condition of Manchester United. Hope Rúben Amorim can succeed.

The truth of the matter is that not all players are suited to all certain style of play, so in other for Amorin to succeed as the manager of Manchester united, he just have to first of all know the qualities of the players at Manchester united and look at a playing system that best suit them, then on the longer run he can bring in his own types of players while fully implementing his playing system, so it should be a gradual thing in other to succeed, but if he decides to make a very huge changes at the club at once, he might struggle, because right now he just has to make due with the qualities of players at his disposal in other for him to be a success.

Then lastly, their is a saying that to whom much is given, much is also expected, so I believe that the pressure he is going to face as the manager of Manchester united will be totally different from sporting Lisbon, so he just have to brace up for it when the time comes.

[Oluwa-btc]

Chelsea has been doing fine this year, along with Arsenal not doing that good this year so far. I am not saying they are doing terrible, I am just saying we are seeing bad results from Arsenal and that is not acceptable at this level at this moment. I believe we need to focus on doing much better if they want to win a league title one day.

I can safely say that they are not going to win it this year neither, this year they look like they are worse than last year and I believe we are going to see results that will not be acceptable for them. They may finish in top four again, but that looks like a tough deal for them at the moment and I believe they are going to face some issues along the way as well, not going to be simple at all.

Blues are not doing badly and if they can get points from the next few fixtures ahead,  they have all it takes to remain in the top four during the first half of the season. I don't know if the absence of the club captain odegaard has affected them but Mikel Arteta should go back to his style of play from last season.
At the start of the season,  this is not how I pictured it up in my head. Things can change regardless,  they have most of their players ready and available same time, back from injury.

[Gallar]

For Amorim to succeed at a club like Manchester United, he would need to prove that he can handle the intense pressure, motivate a team with diverse talents, and establish a consistent, winning strategy. His victory over City is impressive, but only time and experience will show if he’s truly ready to lead a team of United’s caliber back to the top. It would certainly be interesting to see how he fares, but for now, he remains a promising coach who is not yet in the same league as the likes of Guardiola.

What you say is true, friend. But I'm sure this is not an easy thing for Amorim. Because as we know, Manchester United is currently in a quite chaotic situation after Ten Hag left. So with this, it is certain that Amorim's task at Manchester United will not be easy, because he has to solve all the problems left by Ten Hag at Manchester United. Therefore, I personally have the assumption that Amorim will likely need quite a long time to be able to improve Manchester United's performance again. Because of course he also has to adapt first to all the players at Manchester United, see the abilities of the players and after that Amorim can make the right strategy for the Manchester United squad. So if you look at it, I think this season Manchester United will definitely not immediately experience a significant increase in performance. Maybe towards the end of the season Manchester United's performance will improve significantly.

However, this also cannot be a guarantee, because what if, for example, Amorim still cannot bring change to Manchester United for several reasons. Such as being caused by a strategy that is not suitable for Manchester United players or chemistry that is not strong enough. Therefore, before seeing Manchester United play again, I don't think we can see what the quality of a coach like Amorim is. But hopefully Amorim can really bring big changes to Manchester United. The reason is, when Manchester United was coached by Ten Hag, Manchester United's condition was very bad in every way. So basically I personally hope that Amorim can at least bring Manchester United to a top 4 finish and get a ticket to play in the UCL again.

Yes, there will be different pressures that Ruben Amorim will feel at a big club like Manchester United.

But if Ruben Amorim continues to be accompanied by Van Nistelrooy then I'm sure he will get used to it quickly there. I just hope he doesn't suffer the same fate as Erik Ten Hag. because Erik Ten Hag also had good achievements when he was at the Ajax club but apparently he was still unable to bring a team as big as Manchester United to higher performance. Because not all coaches can handle a big team like Manchester United.

One thing for sure that in Sporting Amorim was train the team so that's why Sporting can performing well under him but in Manchester United not only the pressure how to make this team great again but Amorim will fight against players ego and i think we all know some of Manchester United players has high ego and if Amorim can solved this problem and build good relationship with the players i think he can bringing Manchester United to performing good again

However changing the manager in the middle of competitions is quite risky and for the example that in Serie A there is Roma that since De Rossi sacked and replaced by Ivan Juric Roma performance is geeting worst so this probably happened too with Manchester United so that's why i think the fans shouldn't have over expectations to Amorim

Since amorim was linked with manchester united, I tried to find out about how he coached sporting to make manchester united fans have high hopes for him, amorim, who is a young coach, actualy have many achievements in coaching the club including his success in bringing sporting to break the negative trend of never get trophy for 19 years, With an effective strategy and his ability to develop young players, of course he has great potential to bring positive changes at Manchester United later, but as you mentioned, of course big changes take a little longer and I think this season he will only try to restore the performance and position of Manchester United to be better than targeting champions, adaptation to the new league, club culture and also the high expectations of the fans will be a challenge for Amorim at this time, so patience and support from fans and management are very important in that, I think if Amorim is given enough time and resources like they have given Ten Hag, I am sure he can bring Manchester United back to winning ways and compete to be title contenders next season.

They may finish in top four again, but that looks like a tough deal for them at the moment and I believe they are going to face some issues along the way as well, not going to be simple at all.

Chelsea has been playing well this season, I can't say that they have been greater than Arsenal because they just returned to their winning ways, while Arsenal has been playing well for the past two seasons. At the moment, Chelsea and Arsenal have the same number of points, but Chelsea leads Arsenal on goal differential. Next weekend, Chelsea will host Arsenal, and since Arsenal suffered a defeat against Newcastle in their last game, it will be hard for both sides to win.

I think we're in for another season of watching Arsenal lose the Premier League title. To be honest, I don't think they're one of the teams who can win the league this season due to their recent bad performance. Arsenal has only earned one point in the last three Premier League games, and many Arsenal supporters have begun to criticize Arteta for not being the best manager for the team this season. In the last two seasons that Arsenal did not win the league title, their performance was better than this from the very beginning of the season and they were not as bad as they are now.

The main issue with Arsenal is that they depend too much on their former players. I believe that the majority of their players will be leaving at the end of the season to play for another team and achieve more in their careers because it is very bad for a player to perform at their highest level throughout the entire season without winning a single trophy.
