Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

For me, Marcos Rashford does not deserve a place in the Manchester United squad anymore except if he can be forgotten on the bench completely and only pay him his wages. Even if he is kept on the bench, he will still have many ways to influence the mindset of other team people which will cause misunderstanding in the team again. Rashford is not just lazy, he is arrogant too since post Ole gunner when he played his last good football.

He has allowed pride to take over him. I will even suggest that if he must be allowed to stay in old Trafford at all, he should be ready to accept serious pay cut because he can't be receiving such amount of over £300,000 and still be this lazy. Michael Carrick should not allow home to come and destroy the team he has built because it will affect the rest of the team.

I think you only see the shadow of him in the past but don't pay attention to how he is performing now at the club and in the English national team.

However, the ego was previously located when the attitude was not too mature but the longer I see him quite able to control himself including when he was at Barcelona and the benchmark in the England national team at the World Cup today his performance which sometimes only comes as a super sub actually looks much better than his new competitor at Barcelona (Gordon).

This should be a consideration where we not only have to reflect on the past but the progress he gave during the loan especially now that the Manchester United winger looks still not in control although Dorgu can be used as an option.
He still deserves to be given a chance now but it's up to Carrick just to let his fate be unclear this will certainly be another loss for Manchester United because they let players who are actually quite expensive but not used as well as possible.

Maybe Manchester United fans need a general poll for the club to choose if he should be added to the squad for the new season or he should go as a free agent. Because I dont know why there is confusion. Most Manchester United fans say they wont mind having him back in the squad, while others are saying they do not want his attitude and negative charisma. The hatred on Marcus Rashford is too much. I think he is a great player. Perhaps a second chance will not be bad.

Definitely didn?t think so. International games are usually unpredictable because the team is a collection of players from different clubs and leagues so building that synergy as a team is often times a challenge. What?s even more, sometimes the players get played out of their normal position like we see in the England team this World Cup. I wouldn?t use international games as a yardstick to judge performance of players in league games instead I would be more concerned about them sustaining injuries.

exactly, in fact international matches are very strange, i don't think that France imagined that they would challenge such a dirty Paraguay, they played with the South American technique and this in fact meant that the match was very dirty and with little tactics, the refereeing was also pitiful however.

Regarding Rashford himself, there was no doubt about his talent. Under Ole he was real 'hot' forward at his best. Problem is that his "peak" seems like long time ago, and Barcelona showed this season that it is not just about a change of place to always unlock the old version of him.
Performances are more easily ignored though, attitude concerns are not. If one player is not doing well, manager can work with him/her, that is fixable. Player who is troublesome in dressing room is completely different issue and that is what Rashford has had in the last two years. Carrick needs time to put his own feet on ground and be free from picking up someone else headache. Second chances are okay as long as there is a real change in player, and not simply the talent is still there.

That is why it is always good to have a good record, the people you say they are saying they want him back are the people who saw this record and say it is good and those who says no that they don't want him back are those who saw his record and did not patronize it, Marcus Rashford left Manchester united when the team need players that will help but he sealed his heart and left and the truth is even if they allowed hm to come back and play, the respect, dignity etc won't be there anymore.

In club football, players get the opportunity to work together all year  round. The bond between them is also  very strong. But for the national team, they don't play many matches. As a result, even though there are many  star players in the squad, the understanding between them is  weak. We have seen this in several teams.

The Paraguay vs France match was very boring. We have not seen such fights in other matches of this World Cup. Paraguay played very badly and committed bad fouls. It was  not desirable at all. Nevertheless, I am happy with france's victory. They definitely deserved it.

I understand what the fans are afraid of, I guess it is his attitude, the club has started performing very well as we can see, the fans don't want any kind of division that might be influenced by any player or a player who will be selfish sometimes, Marcus Rashford is a very good player but before he went to Barcelona on loan or whatever, he started struggling, Manchester United team was bad then and many red devils fans were complaining bitterly that Rashford was not doing well, he went on loan to Aston where he stepped up a bit before finally going to barcelona, of course some fans still like him because there was a time he was shining, although the fans don't have the final say in finalizing on such decision,however their opinion can not discarded just like that, on second thought, giving him an opportunity once again might also make the team more better.

If Enzo Maresca takes charge of Manchester City team and this season he will not be able to create a very good XI. When a coach comes to a team, the team needs time to fully organize itself and then the team comes back strong after the manager is in charge of the team. In that case, if Manchester City team can do something good this season, then hopefully they will achieve better in the next seasons as they are already in bad form. So if Enzo Maresca takes charge to bring the team back again, the season will be interesting and the team will come back stronger. With time, it is possible to gradually change everything in the team and the team will return to its previous position but not quickly, it will be gradual. Manchester City team can achieve what they achieved if their performance can return to the previous level, so every player in the team will have to spend time responsibly and hard for the team.

I believe that having an excellent team already created by Pep Guardiola, it doesn't take much to win matches, they are definitely players of the highest level, it just takes them to be managed correctly, this is the hope of all the Manchester City fans who want to win again.

[wakier]

For now, Enzo Mareska is building a team and preparing it. It is indeed not easy for him to achieve it, but he always thinks positively for the future. With Manchester City, he has won many awards, which is beyond doubt.

He just started his job with Man City so he has never won many awards with Man City, so now he will just start his coaching system with Man City. I hope he can win many awards like Pep did as his mentor. Being a coach of a big club is not easy there will be many demands from various parties and Enzo Maresca must be ready to face it just like at Chelsea he is required to improve his performance if it does not go well he will be threatened with being fired but I believe he is suitable for the Premier League environment at Chelsea he is able to give the best with young players while at Man City is equipped with quality players who will definitely be better.

I understand the division among Manchester United fans, the decision about Rashford is beyond his playing abilities or skills but some fans are concerned about his attitude and demanding they part ways with the team despite coming from the team's academy but another group want him to stay because of the time he carried the team when they are not their best and times he won the game for them. But the decision will be made by the team's management and that decision will not beafe based on reputation alone but if he will be able to suit the team's long term project. The team can still offer Rashford a second chance, we have seen cases of players who were given a second chance and they came back to do well for their club, if he can work hard and have the right attitude that will affect the team positively, he can be given a second chance. But regardless the decision of Manchester United will be based on what's best for the team, the ability to balance the player and the teams plans

[len01]

I was hoping that Marasca would appoint a second striker to help out Haaland in the central forward, but Enzo still chooses to play Haaland as a lone striker like Guardiola did, so, nothing is new over there.

I'm pretty sure Enzo Maresca had already spoken with Guardiola before officially becoming Man City's head coach. Because of that, I think in his first season he'll probably stick to a tactical approach that's very similar to Guardiola's, while gradually adding some of his own ideas.

So at the start of his first season, I don't think the new manager will want to take any big risks by making drastic changes to City's style of play.

The fans would not have had too many issues having him back on the team but to see that he has not been of his best behavior and even at Barcelona till this moment,  it has not been really clear if he has become any better with his behaviour,  if so far we have seen a really visible sign of improvement that is spelt out well enough,  the fans would probably rather give him a second chance to see what he can come up with on that.

The Pep Guardiola I use to know few seasons back would not have made the mistake he made after he has already top the premier league at the dieing minute.

I don't think there is much to change when it comes to Pep's ideas, literally all the top teams in the European football sphere uses a lone striker the only thing that alternates is the use of wingers tailored to the managers idea. I personally don't think it's wrong and the fascinating thing about Enzo is that we will get to see what he can do differently with the quality of the squad he has been bestowed on

Well this Manchester city is not the best for real, we all saw how they struggled last season in matches they could have easily won. It really good to see Maresca bringing in more qualities to the team. We saw them adding Anderson already and there have been news about Gusto and Enzo Fernandez. Manchester city are really scouting this period and for real they really need that.

I believe next season will be a very interesting and competitive season, we have seeing all top teams bringing in top quality players to their team. With what I have watch about Meresca I believe he will do well with Manchester city, he have proven at Leicester and Chelsea that he his winner, so I believe with the citizens he will do the same because there are expectations about him.

That makes a lot of Sense, I don't think he would want change any system that guardiola has been teaching the team because it might cause the team to slow a bit. Maresca has once worked with guardiola, so there's a possibility that he didn't have to speak with guardiola to know that he has to stick to the strategy that is similar to what he taught the players.

The Pep Guardiola I use to know few seasons back would not have made the mistake he made after he has already top the premier league at the dieing minute.

It's not wrong to say that Pep era is over, but perhaps the right word in my opinion is "tired", because Pep has been with Man City for 10 years, not a short time, and he has also provided extraordinary achievements during his service. But if you still remember, Man City decline in performance occurred close to his divorce from Cristina Serra, so this may also have an influence, whatever it is, now Pep is no longer the manager of Man City and City fans should still be proud of Pep, City has become a respected team under his leadership.

It's too early to conclude on whether the coach might introduce a supporting role to assist Erling Haaland in the attacking line, he has to  carry out some assessment and the current team to see how he might further upgrade the squad in order for the team to remain dominant. Because any alteration might affect the squad's performance, besides I don't think Enzo Maresca will engage the exact techniques that Guardiola used but hopefully there might be some changes at the club under the new manager.

Peps ideas has been one brilliant Idea that obviously is results oriented at all times.  A lone striker appears to be more effective and perfect for most other teams because of the flexibility that comes with it, it also allows for perfect positional switches,  especially for coaches who would want to be rotational with their tactics very often.

[giorgione]

Yes,, it's true that the World Cup can't be used as a benchmark for which teams or players can excel in a football league like the English Premier League. However, if Premier League teams could be more adept at scouting talented players from participating countries, the results would be incredibly positive. Because, in essence, many new stars will emerge during the World Cup. Therefore, I believe that even though the World Cup doesn't guarantee a team's success in the domestic league,, I still believe it has a slight influence on the players recruited.

Furthermore,, regarding Arsenal, it's true that they've performed exceptionally well, but we still don't know for sure what the next season will be like. I'm sure rival teams like Manchester City and Manchester United won't just sit idly by. Therefore,, I don't think it's impossible for Arsenal to become champions again next season. But I don't think it's impossible for Arsenal to fail to win the title again next season...

the World Cup is a huge stage and this showcases those who are already great, like the current attackers that are in this World Cup, or the new stars, so there will be a lot of excitement to get these players and bring them to their teams, as has always been the case, they will do crazy things to get the best players.
