⚽ English Premier League Season: 2024/2025

[Marvell1]

To be honest Man city just crushed their opponent in the last match and if they keep on playing like this they surely will not have too much to worry about. I really think they will be the winners in the English premier league this season and Liverpool is going to be the 2nd team in the standings. Unless of course, Man city loses, but I think that is going to be really unexpected and unbelievable. Especially when Man city doesn't have the added pressure of the champions league now.

Manchester city has proven to their fans that they will keep leading the premier league table till they embrace victory from this tournament. Manchester city defeated Newcastle United with a good tactics that will sustain them through out their remaining matches not to allow any team to drop their points in this period. It was a great celebration in the camp of Manchester city fans for the massive victory they got from Newcastle United that made many people to make a huge amount of money from their  prediction.

Manchester City have proven to be the best team in England by consistency,and how steady they've been throughout the season,the win against Newcastle United have automatically made them the champions of England once again.
Pep Guardiola will be very excited to claim the trophy,but I think he won't be too happy because he couldn't reach the final of the UEFA champions league,which to him,if he doesn't take the UEFA champions league with Manchester city,he is a failure. He has maintained his tittle back to back,but the champions league remains something difficult for him to win.

[JollyGood]

It is a regular occurrence for Guardiola to win the premier league but he is unable to win the champions league. When they are officially crowned champions they Manchester City will have won the premier league 4 times out of the previous 5 seasons and that is a massive statement to the rest of the teams. Liverpool will be unable to catch Manchester City.

What will happen to Liverpool after they were so close to an unprecedented quadruple? If they finish as runners-up in the premier league and lose the champions league final to Real Madrid and lose the FA Cup final to Chelsea? Will it be classed as a successful season for them if they end up with just the EFL Carabao Cup?

Kante has played many games this season where he simply was not playing up to the high standards he set himself in the previous years. I doubt he is the main factor behind the defensive collapse whenever it happens. Good news for Chelsea is that at least Lukaku managed to score and show glimpses of promise but he might not be there for the start of next season because Tuchel does not rate him.

The defensive department has been letting the team down for the past few weeks, which isn't surprising because I expected it to happen sooner or later. Approximately 90% of the defenders are already flirting with other clubs and signing pre-contracts, and you can see that they are trying not to get injured before moving to their new clubs, with no more tackles, zero risks taken, and so on. They don't give a damn about what happens to the club at this point.

Which finals do you see Manchester City getting in to this season? And which trophy do you see in their hands at the end of the season?

They are officially out of every competition, they have only two options left, Win the league or go trophyless.

[tokeweed]

Manchester City emphatically defeated Newcastle United to move back on top of the premier league. Both Liverpool and Manchester City have just three more games to play but Manchester City are ahead by 3 points and now they have a superior goal difference too by +4

ManCity was able to heal the wounds of defeat from Madrid, and with this result, the city re-take the top position from Liverpool. Hard for Newcastle to hold the city attacker inside the defense. The ball position is almost 75% leaning toward Manchester, all attackers like a storm to the penalty box. A premier league title is 1 hope, I believe they will try to hold it until the last week. Maybe in the last 3 matches only west ham which I think is enough hard to get the win, because in the last 2 matches (H2H) at West Ham's home all result is drawn which I think will be the same for the next.

Oh no way.  Lmao.  Trust me, the wounds are still def there.  All the negative feelings they seemed to use to their advantage and Man City played Newcastle like they owed them money.  But it's good to see them jump right back in there and show everybody that their rivals need to out work them to win the EPL trophy.  I would've been fun to see Klopp win all 4 cups in one season tho.

And I wonder what's gonna happen to Chelsea...  Maybe out of the top 4 next season?  City, Liverpool, United, Arsenal might be next season's top 4 imho.

The new owner is holding on to some of the staff in the coming season for chelsea, which is a better decision compared with Man utd take over. he also promised to invest more in the summer. I hope they hold on to the coach as well decide on right players in the market. Guardiola started a beef lately with liverpool that he will not enjoy with the next visit

I would also very much like Chelsea to remain a competitive club and a fighter for the highest titles even under the new owners. Another question is that I am absolutely not sure that the new owners will be able to provide the same amount of funding that the previous owner of the club provided. If the team can keep the current backbone and the head coach of the club, then this is only the most necessary, because if the club wants to continue to develop and count on something, then we also need reinforcements. Therefore, I have some doubts about the club next season, which will be transitional with all the consequences that follow from this are not the most pleasant.

Next season anything could happen but on current forum you would expect Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal to be in the top 3

Chelsea has won the Super Cup, the World Club Cup, the League Cup runner-up, and the FA Cup finalist this season. They are currently third in the league, have spent £0 on the last transfer, and everyone believes they will finish outside of the top four due to recent struggles at the club. We've had one of our best seasons, and next season will only get better with the new owner, who will most likely spend more in his first summer transfer as the new owner, who is also a big fan of the club. To be honest, I see us challenging for the league with Manchester City next season.

You could be right but if Manchester City and Chelsea fight it out for the premier league championship next season, where do Liverpool fit in?

With Arsenal coming to form and if Tottenham keep hold of Son, Kane and Conte then you would expect these teams to challenge too. Has Tuchel indicated his plans yet because I do not know if he will stay at Chelsea or not for when the new owners arrive.

BREAKING
NEWS

Manchester City announce they will sign Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund for £51m. This means he will join the club that his father played for during a short spell before they found success after being purchased and funded by a Middle East country.

He will join Manchester City on 1st July 2022 for over £85 which will include agents fees and contract add-ons: SKYSPORTS

Currently the Premier League has two strikers who dominate the top scoreboard (Moh Salah and Son Heung). For Cristiano Ronaldo I feel in the next season he will not be a contender in top scorer. Haaland will add the atmosphere in the premier league's top scorer leaderboard.

Ronaldo is 37 years old. If he stays at Manchester United next season he probably will not be a contender for top scorer but he is a one-off phenomenon therefore never write him off.

and the big question is: Will City be able to win the Champions League next year? Because I think the depth of the squad that City has at this season is very possible to make them the kings of the premier league next season.

I do not think Manchester City will ein the champions league while Guardiola is manager.

And my question is, why are you comparing Haaland to Kane? Isn't there Son Heung or CR7 who has more goals than Kane?

I did not compare anybody. It was a just an image from the sports section of the website.

There's no story on Salah right now if Liverpool could just keep him for another year, they will compete

Arsenal are pretenders who will only qualify for the Champions League next season due to Manchester United's recent poor form. Arsenal doesn't have the players to go 13 games without losing, and I don't see them and Tottenham vying for the title any time soon.

Conte will only compete for champions league positions if he keeps Kane for another season.

And my question is, why are you comparing Haaland to Kane? Isn't there Son Heung or CR7 who has more goals than Kane?

You're missing the point; he compared him to Haaland because Manchester City tried to sign Kane last summer but were unable to do so, so they settled for Haaland, their second choice, but Kane is a better striker overall. I don't trust Bundesliga strikers.

Please you don't have to quote all the Op next time.

Arsenal has a very young team, too young to vile for anything serious like the league trophy. The most they can compete for is a spot that qualifies them for either the UCL or Europa. Personally, o don't see them making a good candidate for the UCL anytime soon but apparently, should have managed it to top 4 as it is now although, there are still few games to play, one against rivalry Tottenham. Although, the outcome of this game should Arsenal loose won't have much effect on the current stand after which, I doubt Newcastle would be able to pull off any winning trick against Arsenal.

I haven't imagined any team to come for these two @S. Mane and M. Salah. They have been really phenomenal in Liverpool and the team isn't ready to do away with them just yet. Perhaps they've got a few more seasons, as Liverpool still remains a promising team for both the EPL and the UCL with a manager that can deliver.

The Premier League is unpredictable; you never know what will happen next, and a bad team can derail you at any time.

Perhaps they've got a few more seasons, as Liverpool still remains a promising team for both the EPL and the UCL with a manager that can deliver.

Salah's contracts expire in 2023, and he has yet to accept a new contract from Liverpool. I believe he is demanding higher wages, and if Liverpool are unwilling to offer him that, he will be a free agent next summer if he chooses to stay for another season. Every player is loyal to a team until the next club offers a large wage, and the only loyal player in the EPL right now is Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy.

P.s: check your quoting again.

I try as much to avoid any discussion on Russia oligarch, especially Abramovich, which has started as more than a year ago and as resulted in such bad end. I am not sure I will remain Chelsea fan as from next season due to the transition. This new man is all about making money and the policies with the agreement is hostile to football management, not selling stakes in 10 years and more. Abramovich did all because of the love for the club not money

Bye-bye, you don't know anything about football, you're just blabbering, Tood Boehly was the fans' favorite among the bidders; he's a Chelsea fan and a successful co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers; he's a football fan who wants to see the club compete at the highest level; he was Abramovich's choice candidate to lead the club to greatness. The contract clauses are in place for the club's benefit. Stop listening to rumors and instead give him a chance.

You have a point in that if Manchester United were not playing such mediocre football Arsenal would not be fighting for a champions league position but let us not forget Arsenal are now just one point Chelsea. That is how far Chelsea have fallen below their very high standards. Tuchel has done a brilliant job there on a zero budget but still this season they dropped too many points.

Maybe Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea will fight it out for the league while maybe Arsenal and Tottenham will fight it out to see who can finish above the other. As for Salah, he will go where the money will take him I think he will move at the end of this season and receive a massive salary and signing on fee that Liverpool simply cannot afford him.

Not every club would survive what we're currently going through Some parts of the club remain closed, limited ticket sales, limited fans, limited traveling allowances, and poor officiating from referees and VAR, our dip in form is understandable, did you notice none of Chelsea players were chosen among the EPL teams of the year nomination? Jame is one of the best running backs in the league this season, but he was not nominated, nor were Mount, Rudiger, or Havertz. They despise our club and Abramovich to such an extent.

Tood Boehly should provide Tuchel with the players he needs to turn the team around next season.

RESULT FROM YESTERDAY:

Aston Villa 1-2 Liverpool



Here are the games taking place this evening:
 
Leeds United vs Chelsea   

Leicester City vs Norwich City         

Watford vs Everton         

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Manchester City

With Liverpool winning yesterday they have played one game more than Manchester City but are -3 goal difference behind. Manchester City can extend their lead over Liverpool by one point or three points this evening.

Everton and Leeds are also playing this evening and either of them with Burnley still could get relegated.

Arsenal has a very young team, too young to vile for anything serious like the league trophy. The most they can compete for is a spot that qualifies them for either the UCL or Europa. Personally, o don't see them making a good candidate for the UCL anytime soon but apparently, should have managed it to top 4 as it is now although, there are still few games to play, one against rivalry Tottenham.

Perhaps they've got a few more seasons, as Liverpool still remains a promising team for both the EPL and the UCL with a manager that can deliver.

Maybe the young inexperienced Arsenal team will begin to gel together next season and put up a stronger fight? It is is possible though the likelihood is they will not be able to compete with Manchester City and Liverpool.

If Conte, Kane and Son stay at Tottenham and Levy allows Conte to buy two or three players then it would be interesting to see what happens with them. They might become serious contenders too.

As for Mane and Salah you are right they have been phenomenal for Liverpool but if Klopp allowed either to leave at the end of the season then Liverpool will not be competing with Manchester City for the premier league title next season.

Don't think that Liverpool is going to let anyone of them go.
No, they are just too important to Liverpool at the moment. and letting them go will be a huge mistake from my perspective.

Tottenham needs to make some big changes in the squad otherwise I don't see them being a serious contender for the English Premier League. they might find a position to be playing the next Champions League but not a hearty contender for the EPL trophy.

Arsenal also needs to make changes because I don't see them playing well against bigger teams. whenever they play against teams like Manchester City or Liverpool, they just seem out of their League.

[JollyGood]

You make an interesting point but Liverpool have an incident in their very recent history which proves losing an important player can bring unimaginable success.

Coutinho was a brilliant player, playmaker and goal scorer. He was essential to Liverpool and they wanted to keep him and build their team around their superstar midfielder but after he made it clear to the club he wanted to leave and play for Barcelona he was sold. Liverpool were happy to let him go as they received £142 million. After he left, his career failed at Barcelona though he had some impact at Bayern while on loan and even played against Barcelona when Bayern thrashed them in the Champions League semi-final 8-2.

Liverpool sold Coutinho in the January 2018 transfer window receiving £105 million upfront with the remaining £37 to be paid as add-ons. Liverpool bought van Dijk in the same January 2018 transfer window and with some tweaks went on to the Champions League final where they were beaten by Real Madrid in 2017/18 season.

In July 2018 during the summer transfer window, Liverpool purchased Alisson, Fabinho, Keita and Shaqiri and the same season won the Champions League in 2018/19.

A season later in 2019/20 Liverpool went on to win the Premier League for the first time.

In the current 2021/22 season they won the EFL League Cup, are in the final of the FA Cup and are in the final of another Champions League ironically playing against Real Madrid again.

If Coutinho was not sold to Barcelona then Liverpool would not have had the funds to bankroll the success they enjoyed because the funds his sale brought in allowed Klopp to buy van Dijk immediately and then at the end of the season Allison was added and they were the final pieces of the jigsaw that catapulted Liverpool towards success playing alongside Salah, Firmino, Mane and the rest.

Liverpool owners and manager already know selling one player does not necessarily mean it will be detrimental to the team or the club and their recent history is testament to that.

Regardless of whether Liverpool are successful enough to build a team and succeed after Coutinho was sold then I just think it all depends on Klopp and his mission at Liverpool. Klopp is a great German coach for Liverpool at the moment and he has made Liverpool capable of competing in all competitions to reach the final this season but of course I don't think just with the sale of Coutinho they have had much success. Some of the signings have high market value as well, but perhaps the money from the sale of Coutinho has financed their success so far although not completely.
