Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Mayor of ogba]

Johnny Evans's contract with Manchester United has come to an end after the end of the Premier League season. Instead of asking his agent to look for another club he will play for, Johnny Evans decided to put an end to his professional football career. Johnny Evans retires from football. I wish him well in the new journey he's about to enter.

He has seen it all when it comes to football so calling it a day is good because he has achieved everything possible with Club football he was part of the united that won the champions League and the premier League multiple times so retirement at this moment is not a bad one I will have suggested that he should go the Saudi league and make huge cash before retirement because it is not a bad one that he retired this season because this season was not a good season for a player of his caliber to retire this way

With the huge money contracts Saudi Arabian clubs are giving to players, going to play in the Saudi Arabian league could have been a nice move for Johnny Evans because he could have made a lot of money and made a name for himself in the league before calling it a day to his professional football career.

Manchester United's  performance needs to be stabilized. It is true that Manchester United's squad needs to be changed for this. However, it is not the case that only adding star players to the squad will improve performance. Amorim is a talented coach. He has definitely been able to identify the weaknesses of his squad.  A large fund will be given to amorim to buy players. However, Amorim will have to be smart about buying players. He will have to spend less  money and find the right player for his squad.

Players will always be present but what are their core obligations? The Red Devils players are relenting, they're unable to match equal strength with elite teams this season and they alone have rated them low and their standards becomes more compromising. Manchester United headcoach, Ruben Amorim is cooking for the club. We should simply prepared ourselves for what will happen next season, it's definitely going to be a competitive one for the Red Devils. They're not anticipating in major league next season, they're heading for streak winnings and will be eligible to compete for the EPL title next season.

Even without participating to any European football, and that means the team can rest way more than the others, I really don't see how Manchester United could somehow be a contender for the Premier League. The team they have makes little sense, they have no real striker at the moment, just a bunch of random players. The goalkeeper is a disaster. Maybe, and it's a big maybe, they can reach a Champions League spot.

The team they have makes little sense, they have no real striker at the moment, just a bunch of random players. The goalkeeper is a disaster. Maybe, and it's a big maybe, they can reach a Champions League spot.

It is good for Manchester United that they are not competing in any other European competition. This will give Amorim more time to build his squad. As we have seen with Chelsea this season. This team focused only on the Premier League. And finally qualified for the Champions League. The team also won the Conference League title. However, the Conference League was not very competitive.

Manchester United's overall condition is not good. The team has performed poorly in the Premier League. Manchester United fans only want to see stable performance from this team next season. They do not expect to win any title. However, Amorim needs to ensure Champions League qualification from the top 5 of the table.

We still do not know what steps Manchester United management is going to take to strengthen their squad. New players need to be added to the squad and old players need to be sold to reduce costs. Manchester United will have to try to revamp the squad.

[Akbarkoe]

Indeed, if Amorim does not get the desired player, surely United will not experience much development. What happens may not be much different from what they achieved this season. Competing with stronger teams will be very difficult for United.
Let's wait and see what they will get in the transfer market this time. Unfortunately, they did not win the Europa League, if they had the situation might be different.

Failing to come out as a for the Europa League champion will affect Man United's in recruiting new players and maybe there is not much that can be done because it will make some players reluctant to join them. So far the names that have emerged as candidates for Man United players next season look more convincing, but how can they get these players in the current transfer market.

Amorim's steps will be much more difficult if he does not have a number of the players he needs and it will be quite difficult to compete with other top teams if he relies on a number of players he currently has. Changes need to be made and this does not reflect Man United as one of the strong teams in the Premier League because they have experienced quite a big decline.

Antony's loan period at Real Betis has ended and he will return to Old Trafford, and although the loan period was short but now Antony is back to his best performance where with Real Betis in 17 matches he managed to record 5 goals and 2 assists, besides that he also managed to bring Real Betis to the UECL final even though in the end he had to lose to Chelsea.

And although at this time there are some rumors that say that there are several clubs that are quite interested in recruiting him such as Atletico Madrid, but until now I have not heard any news about Antony's transfer. And if Antony returns to play for Man United next season, I hope he can return to performing as impressively as he did when he played for Real Betis.

[ITExpert]

If you want the team to develop more, then it is appropriate for Man United to release some players who do not have a big influence on the club's success. Several names are on Amorim's wish list for next season, but they will have quite a hard time bringing in these players because next season Man United will only play in the Premier League. The availability of a small budget can also be a challenge for him so that some targeted players cannot be brought in easily.

If the situation does not change, then I'm sure Man United next season will not make many changes that the coach can make and of course they will have quite a hard time keeping up with other teams in the fight for the championship title or just chasing the top three positions in the standings.

That is what will even happen, because the way it is right now, many players want more recognition, and since Manchester United will be playing in only the Premier League next season, some players won’t want to be in Manchester United due to that reason.

I think Amorim should just try his best to get in players that he knows can do better than the current squad because, seriously, some of the current players are not hungry for goals and the success of Manchester United. They need more good players that can get the team performance back. I hope Amorim does the needful.

Be it a playground or any other center of human movement, we can only succeed if all the people participating in it put in their contribution from the heart and they want what we are doing from the heart and we have to do this thing or we have to win on the playground. One of the main reasons for the points I have been making about Manchester United's performance is that many of the players who are there want to leave this team because when someone is not there from the heart, they cannot perform as well. And in my opinion, the biggest reason for the failure of Manchester United is that some players want to leave here. The Manchester United team needs to reorganize  so that those who want to go are sent and some new faces are introduced based on talent. There will be and may be difficulties because there may be budget issues or chemistry between new faces and new people.  There may be issues, but only by doing this will Manchester United be able to restore their position.

[Mayor of ogba]

I believe that Amorim is a coach with high taste of quality players and it does not mean that the player must be a superstar. The management is desperate to see a new Manchester United full of strength and zealous to win trophies. United performance has been poor for so long and it doesn't tell good about them because they have lost their respect.

You are right, it's not compulsory that Ruben Amorim must sign superstars or already made players before Manchester United's performance can stabilize. If Ruben Amorim can have the eye to sign players that are dedicated to playing for Manchester United, I think Manchester United can start winning their matches in the Premier League even though they don't win the Premier League title. Manchester United's problem can't be solved in one season; Ruben Amorim's target should be how to stabilize Manchester United's performance next season.

I wish him well in the new journey he's about to enter.

He is indeed quite old, already 37 years old, maybe it's time for him to retire from football. He is a player who has played for Manchester United for quite a long time, he even started his first career in the 2006-2015 season. However, the player was often loaned to other clubs and even sold until finally at the end of the 2023 season he returned to Manchester United. He is a Manchester United legend, it's just that not too many fans know him, and that's because he was loaned to other clubs too often compared to playing for Manchester United.

thank you Johnny Evans and enjoy your retirement, you are a red devil legend.

Being a red and Manchester United fan is something that will not be experienced by too many people but Johnny was both, a Manchester United fan, a player and also a legend now. It's sad considering how we have eventually ended our season poorly.

I'm more than disappointed we couldn't win the finals against Tottenham Hotspur to give him a proper send off. I will never forget how he also helped Leicester City during his time with them. Godspeed to whatever the next chapter brings legend.

Manchester United's problem can't be solved in one season; Ruben Amorim's target should be how to stabilize Manchester United's performance next season.

I still cannot fathom the fact that Manchester United was in their best form in the Europa League but was on their worst form in the champions league, this is not what anyone saw coming. I remembered when Manchester United signed Amorim from Sporting Lisbon, we all thought that their performance will improve and we will see them battling for the top four spot, but we never saw anything like that and their condition got worsen overtime.

Manchester United have a pretty good squad that can take them far even next season because if they were able to  reach the finals of the Europa League with this squad, then they can perform wonders with this squad once again. Amorim needs to step up his performance though, because this may be his only chance to change things for this team or he may risk losing his job. He can’t go two full season without anything being achievable, he’ll soon lose his job if that happens, so he’ll need take his job more serious from next season.

[Dump3er]

If Manchester United have such a plan, then they will definitely be able to do something good for the next season. If they release some of their good players in the transfer market, then they will definitely not have financial problems, moreover, if they recruit more good players and sign them, then the team will be strong again. If this club can implement their plan, then they will definitely be able to bring something good for the next season. However, I think that if they can sign good players in the transfer market, then it is possible to present the team strongly again.

I believe that Amorim is a coach with high taste of quality players and it does not mean that the player must be a superstar. The management is desperate to see a new Manchester United full of strength and zealous to win trophies. United performance has been poor for so long and it doesn't tell good about them because they have lost their respect.

He has I assume as he came from Sporting and they don't have the money there to buy a shopping list and then try to get every player possible. His ability as a coach remains yet to be proven. He has left Sporting when they were at a high to then take over Manchester United which was at a low, but by all means it can't be said that he ever got them out of that hole. In one of the worst seasons, or maybe the worst season ever played by Manchester United, I think this was the worst result they could get. Only relegation zone would have been worse.

Ruben Amorim is too attached to his principles and still wants to implement the 3-4-3 formation, we know Ten Hag legacy squad is not used to playing with that scheme, so it is no wonder they had difficulty winning. In the Europa League, Man United was lucky because the opponents they faced were not as competitive as the Premier League, so they managed to reach the final. We can see, when Man United faced Tottenham, who are also representatives of the Premier League, Ruben Amortim squad suffered another defeat. By completely overhauling the depth of Man United squad, which is in accordance with his strategic needs, I think only then can Ruben Amorim perform to meet expectations.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Amorim needs a lot of work to do against next season, he should sell a lot of players he intended selling and also needs to sign some quality players to make sure the team comeback stronger next season.

In essence for me Amorim needs a miracle, that's what he needs, I would get rid of all the Players and with an open wallet I would ask for a better team, this MU reminds me of the Chelsea of ??Some 4 seasons ago, where they changed everyone, brought in high level Players and they didn't live up to Expectations, now the MU needs to win and be more competitive, they are at a very low level, they need to compete and win, get to play against the big teams like Liverpool, City and Arsenal.

Maybe, and it's a big maybe, they can reach a Champions League spot.

MU will never be a premier league contender until they can sell all of their players, then rebuild the squad from the scratch by focusing on the collectivity gameplay like what PSG did. They have so many useless players in the squad, and must get rid 80% - 90% of them.

Even a transfer news account already spilled this to them.

Most of you on here do not think for yourself. Mark Goldbridge is yet another dump prat who wants Manchester United to sell Bruno Fernandez. I don't know why it's too difficult for you to see that we have poor and bad owners who lavish profits stupidly. It's not about the best players,  it's also about seeing the toxic owners sell or leave the club for who can fund it. Don't forget,  PSG didn’t make profits by letting Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Messi Leave, Yes?

It's 5 bloody years and we don't have a consistent attacking midfielder as Bruno Fernandez in Europe. We can't replace Bruno Fernandez. The owners should spend or sell the club. Finally Jim Ratcliffe is no different from the glazers.

Yes, in the current conditions, the problems that Manchester United currently have are really difficult to solve in just one season. Because it can be said that almost every line has a fairly large gap at Manchester United. So with this, it certainly takes a long time to make Manchester United rise again like before. Besides that, I also agree that Amorim doesn't have to have star players to make Manchester United rise again, because right now there are actually many big names at Manchester United, such as Bruno Fernandes and Garnacho. But the results we can see for ourselves, that Manchester United really has a bad performance right now. So with this, in the coming season Amorim should not focus too much on bringing in players who have high popularity, but must be able to bring in players who can cover the gaps in every line at Manchester United.

Because what I see, the cause of Manchester United's poor performance, is caused by poor player chemistry and the point is that they prioritize their own egos. That's why the teamwork at Manchester United is really not good and makes them have to swallow many defeats this season and finish in a bad position in the English league. But until now I have not heard any news about which players will be recruited by Amorim to Manchester United's. Because in my personal opinion in this season's transfer market Manchester United needs to buy many players to be able to compete again in the English league. Because I think big changes really need to be made at Manchester United, especially in terms of players.

This is not a valid reason for their failure this season. I know quite alright, there is a specific formation that every team is familiar with but they should know that every coach has a preferred formation. Moreover, as a professional players, they are supposed to be versatile enough to be able to play with every formation that a coach chooses to use if that's what the team requires for balance.

I know there's always a perfect formation but adapting to a temporary formation shouldn't be a problem at all and should not be an excuse. Generally, Manchester united is only riding on a good luck and formation is just an extra problem but not the main problem.  Amorin should not be crucified for using his preferred formation.

[SOKO-DEKE]

You are right, it's not compulsory that Ruben Amorim must sign superstars or already made players before Manchester United's performance can stabilize. If Ruben Amorim can have the eye to sign players that are dedicated to playing for Manchester United, I think Manchester United can start winning their matches in the Premier League even though they don't win the Premier League title. Manchester United's problem can't be solved in one season; Ruben Amorim's target should be how to stabilize Manchester United's performance next season.

The reason why almost everyone always emphasizes that coaches should sign superstars is all because of what people expect the coaches to achieve. People believe it is through these superstar players that teams can achieve whatever they want. But sometimes, that is not the case. It's all about the dedication of the players. Someone can have average players, and it is still very possible for them to win trophies. Meanwhile, teams with the most superstars might not win any trophy at all.

So, if Ruben Amorim does not believe in superstar players, he can go ahead and sign the players he thinks can help him achieve what he wants to achieve  that is the main concern. If Ruben Amorim can get dedicated players, it’s possible he could bring Manchester United back to their best form  the form they’ve lost for many years  and even win a trophy next season.

Even now, Manchester United has a team that, if they are dedicated, could finish in the top positions and possibly even win the league. But the truth is, it’s very bad for a team to focus on just one particular competition  like what Manchester United did this season. How can a team do well in the Europa League and reach final  but yet find it very difficult to perform in the Premier League and end in even top five?

[lizarder]

Manchester United have enough money for building a good squad but they did not do well on transfer market and wasted a lot of money there while their squad quality was not improved in many seasons. First of all, improvements must come from players in the club, and next is a responsibility of head coach to do his management well in training and matches.

I believe Ruben Amorim is not a bad coach but he will face with a next very difficult season and if the club want to build up a long term development future with him, a next season target would be a position in top six. That would be an acceptable target for them by focusing on rebuilding their squad for future like 2 or 3 more seasons with Ruben Amorim.

The club owner will not spend more money to bring in players because previously they have recruited quite expensive players but the players they brought in were beyond expectations. If you look at Amorim's performance in the Premier League then he is one of the worst managers since the Ferguson Era ended because they finished just a few levels above the relegation zone, although the reason is that they focus on the Europa League but the results are also zero.

Next season there must be a major evaluation to improve the overall quality of Man United's game and a number of players must be released so they can bring in other players. The coach must also be responsible for the poor performance that has occurred because a number of players who were loaned to other clubs performed so impressively.

Amorim accepted Manchester United when the team was very, very down since it was still held by Ten Hag and moreover Amorim did not come to Manchester United since the beginning of the season, but only in the ongoing season so it would not be easy for Amorim to immediately make the slumped team into a team that immediately rose with the players who were there at that time. I will not blame Amorim for Manchester United's current condition because if you look at it as a whole, maybe you will rub your chest over the performance of the Manchester United players. So there is no reason not to recruit new players if we look at Manchester United's current condition which has failed in two different competitions.

Initially I believed in Amorim, I could say I was confident in him. This can be explained by the fact that I considered Ten Hag a fraud and after him I was ready to believe in anything. Now, to be honest, I already doubt Amorim - the fact that he sticks to his principles is great, but maybe he should be more flexible? What will happen if his ideas don't produce results next season? I don't even want to think about it, but I'm looking forward to the next season because I can't wait to understand whether he'll cope or not.
