⚽ English Premier League Season: 2024/2025

[blue Snow]

If Conte won a title with Tottenham Hotspur I we consider him the best  coach in the world, I will rate him more than pep guadiola, because before he came Tottenham are going through a lot, they were suffering,there fans are finding it hard to watch their game or enjoy it, the players are all average in my eyes excluding son and Kane but now just three months on, players like Eric Dier are now machines in defence,I won't have said that Tottenham Hotspur will miss Ben Davies if he is not playing if not for Antonio Conte.

Everything is possible, but we don't have to expect too much, I believe Tottenham will be one on big 4, but for the title, I think it's very (double) hard. There are have 3 teams that will try to block them with the power of team squad above average, City, Chelsea, and Liverpool. That all not only have solid squad but have no.1 the strategist. I admit spurs have the same as others but are still weak on each line, like defense and midfield.

I think that Tottenham's unbeaten streak will go up to six games by the Crystal Palace game in five days. There is a very visible difference between their performance before and after Conte. And I'm expecting to see this for many more weeks. Of course, they will lose at some point also but until then can still continue to win or get at least a draw. I don't expect them to lose for three more weeks. And after that, they are going to have a home game against Arsenal which could be really interesting.

Recent news reports are stating  up to 90 Premier League players, backroom staff and officials have tested positive for COVID-19 in the most recent wave of tests which means the future of this season (2021/22) is already in doubt.

It also stated 16% of Premier League players have not been vaccinated (which has to be a personal individual choice rather than the UK government not offering them double doses and the booster) but that might be unconnected to the latest positive test statistics.

I hope the season will not be cancelled because this is an exciting season where there are multiple teams in contention to win the EPL and there are multiple teams in contention for the 4th place Champions League spot.

I was already being afraid of this to happen and it looks like a really problematic period of time waiting for the Premier League clubs. Actually, it is not happening only in this league of course. In so many leagues, the number of players who have got covid-19 is increasing as time goes on. It seems like this winter is going to be tough for many clubs. The fixture is going to be tighter than ever before and this would cause the season to end at a later time than it was planned.

Covid is now rising again to the surface in the midst of the most anticipated match as well as the rivalry between the strongest clubs. However, the match in the most decisive round is hampered by Covid 19. Of course, if this season is canceled, then automatically all the journeys of all clubs will not feel so perfect.

I have a weird feeling we’ll be seeing something somewhat the same as the 2019/20 season.  And I laughed a bit when the EPL announced that all Boxing Day fixtures will be happening as planned.  I mean really?  We just had 6 clubs’ fixtures having postponed cos of covid.  It’s prolly just the start.

Would’ve had some nice spots for a little gambling.

Everyone losses at the end of the day so I won't be surprised when Conte gets handed his first loss as manager of Tottenham. But there's been results since he got the job which is considered impressive. While I do think that there's a slim chance of Tottenham winning the PL, they might finish strong this season if they continue at this rate.

What do you guys think of this parlay for the fixtures on Boxing Day...  Liverpool to win both halves vs Leeds at 2.00, Norwich team total under .5 goals vs Arsenal at 2.01, Brighton vs Brentford first half draw at 2.11 and Newcastle team total under .5 goals vs Man United at 2.37.  Total odds to win is 20.11.    25 bucks win a tad over 500 USD. 

I feel somewhat confident on the first three and a little bit iffy on the Newcastle one...

Tottenham still continue to play really great. They managed to defeat West Ham by 2-1 home in the EFL Cup match yesterday. Now, they are in the semi-final stage there. And they are coming to the Premier League again now. The next opponent waiting for them is Crystal Palace. And it is another home match for Tottenham here. And this must be a very comfortable match for them also. I think that Crystal Palace can't do anything against this powerful Tottenham.

Stevie seems like a naturally calm and not very extroverted character, but on the pitch when he's on form he is something else, with his speed and agility. He just missed too many easy chances in important games and fans lost all confidence in him. so much so, him coming on for Moura, and the booing that ensued, basically got Nuno fired, or was the last straw. He does seem miffed that he's not had more minutes, understandably, but we have a lot of underperforming quality in our team and fans are tired of it. Now we have a manager that won't accept anything but the best out of every player, and that can only be good for us going forward.

Manchester City v Leicester match can be a really good one this weekend. We will probably see that Manchester City will have the match under control most of the time. But if Leicester somehow manage to score first, then things can get really interesting. Or maybe Manchester City would score but Leicester would equalize it and then try to keep the score to the end. Manchester City might have a hard time in this case.

You don't have to doubt Manchester City if the opponent is not Liverpool. Leicester will probably lose that match to Manchester City because honestly I really believe Manchester City can do it.

In the last 18 match, Manchester City only lost 2 and drew 2, and won the other 14 match. So I have no doubt they will miss another 3 points this weekend when Leicester are the opponents. Victory is the most likely thing for City, but a draw is still possible if Leicester play defensively.

I agree. Leicester is still not a very tough competitor for Manchester City even after their performance last night. Manchester City have a very solid game plan now and they have nearly zero competitor that they can have a really big difficulty against. I mean that Manchester City can apply their usual game plan to nearly all of their competitors. When it comes to Liverpool, things could change but if the game is in Etihad, Manchester City would still play as usual against them too.

These two teams will be an interesting match because they both beat Newcastle with the same score 4-0, but if you look at the history of Manchester City's game in this season's match it has always produced satisfying results and often scored many goals.
Leicester are unlikely to be powerless to stop Pep Guardiola's men who have always maintained the form that has seen Manchester City win eight straight Premier League wins.
Manchester City will beat Leicester because as the leader of the standings, they must maintain their position even though they are very comfortable at the top of the table.

Liverpool vs Leeds has been postponed due to a COVID outbreak in the Leeds squad. I’m disappointed because I have tickets for this one.

^  Aaand there it is again...  It’s starting, one leg of my parlay gone.  -_-  I heard Wolverhampton vs Watford could be postponed too.  I’m also expecting a couple more Boxing Day fixtures to be postponed.

Is it just me or does anybody else think the EPL will be shut down for a couple of weeks or something?

[JollyGood]

I read an article about managers meeting with the Premier League to discuss the next step with all these games being postponed. I think Klopp was credited with that, let us see what they some up with trying to finds solutions to the COVID-19 situation.

For a long time, Leicester City has been worrying Manchester City, therefore I'm definitely looking forward to this game. Both clubs are free from Covid 19, so the game will go on, and Mancity will most likely draw a point in this one.

A much-needed rest for Leeds United, who have been incredibly poor in their last four games due to the absence of the majority of their first-team players. Liverpool could have had an easy game, therefore I'm delighted it was postponed.

There are currently two postponed matches taking place on Boxing Day, namely the match between Liverpool and Leeds and also between Wolves and Watford, the number of players from both teams (Leeds and Watford) who were affected by Covid forced their matches to be postponed, and it seems that at this time there has been no decision from the premier league board regarding the new schedule for the postponed matches.
In your opinion, now several clubs have been infected with covid 19 again, is there a possibility that the competition will be stopped later?

Manchester City - Leicester game really seems to be worth watching to me. Above all else, I expect a one-sided game. Because we are talking about Manchester City in Etihad.    There is no way that they can have a difficulty in implementing their usual game plan here I think. Leicester have a strong attacking line. But I don't expect Manchester City to let them have too many chances in this game. Maybe Leicester could score one goal somehow at least. But Manchester City would defeat them comfortably.
