⚽ Premier League 2025/2026 Discussion Thread ⚽

[Nightwatchmare]

I wouldn't agree to any rumors of Fernandez leaving Manchester United soon because until he leaves because he loves the club and plays with passion. Bruno Fernandez was the only player that was able to maintain his performance rescuing United out during the time that United was in crisis.

Hopefully the rumors don't come true, and hope Bruno Fernandez stays at Manchester United for the long term, as he's a crucial and influential asset in the dressing room. And, as you said, Bruno Fernandez has been able to lift the team's performance during a crisis, and he carries a heavy burden as captain.

With the level of points Bruno Fernandes has won for Manchester United in the premier league this season, i don't think Manchester United will allow Bruno Fernandes to leave when they have not gotten a good midfield that will perform like Bruno Fernandes, so i think the rumor of Bruno Fernandes leaving Manchester United is not true, and people should not take the rumor very serious, because it could be that since Manchester United will do a serious upgrade in their midfield in the summer transfer window, people now think Bruno Fernandes will leave Manchester United.

It is really hard to predict Liverpool this season especially in the premier league, they always win a game you don't expect them to win and they also lose when you don't expect them to..., but honestly I think they are better of in the champions league this season than in the premier league because you can imagine where they are in the champions league table and there position in the premier it doesn't make any sense, they are suppose to do better in the premier league than in the champions league because people who plays champions league are champions in their various league but regardless I think they will still move up soon in the premier league table.

Liverpool performance has really dropped big time in this season premier League, and frankly speaking I don't know what to say about Liverpool poor performance in premier League. Because when this season started Liverpool was in good performance, to the extent people where already projecting them to win this season premier League title and all of sudden they lost form and currently they are the worst big team in this season premier League. people expected better from them but they keep messing up, when you expect them to performance very well, they end up performing terribly. Liverpool coach should better work on the team before things get worst.

There’s no way Liverpool drops points at home. We are talking about last year’s champions, who are currently sitting 6th in the Premier League. and they are now 3rd in the Champions League table and 6 points off the pace. Given the circumstances, Anfield will be a fortress...

Well it seems to me that Liverpool are now recovering their long lost form with their current performance with a single loss, three wins and a draw to their name but it's a bit competing with Manchester City who are trying to close up the gap with Arsenal so I don't see that as an easy match.

It's a really tough match at Emirates stadium today against Chelsea. Before the match, I had made my predictions that the match would end in a draw and we look forward to that. It's being a competing match for Arsenal as both teams are giving good performances deserving of a win. What would be your take on this match?

[abhiseshakana]

Even for the top 3, especially Aston Villa, I am still quite doubtful that they will remain in this position when looking at the current situation although I am still quite sure that they will get a comfortable position but not with the top 3 for this season.
Apart from Manchester City and Arsenal at this time I still believe that the position is still very changeable even for now some clubs like Manchester United who are in a positive trend can put a lot more pressure later so this is my consideration that the EPL apart from the first and second positions still allows a significant change later.

Next week Liverpool will face a big match and this I think will be a little difficult to predict who will get 3 points in this match because the consistency of these two clubs is in trouble.
In terms of odds maybe Liverpool will benefit because they play home but there is no guarantee for them to be able to get 3 points in this match.

There are still 14 games to play, and I think anything can still happen, including  changes in the top 4. The competition feels so intense  because these big teams sometimes end up with poor results when they face mediocre teams that they should be able to beat. Interestingly,  Man United is now in the race ... I know it will be quite difficult for them to catch up  with Arsenal, but at least they now have hope of securing a ticket to the Champions League this season. In addition, I am  quite curious to see whether Arsenal can truly maintain their consistency until the end of the season, because as the season draws to a close, Arsenal often slips up.

I thought I was the only one that is even thinking towards this direction regarding liverpool's performance this season, because it is so annoying to see the current champion dropping in this manner, honestly I was so disappointed in their performance because the way they ended last season, I was expecting to see their best from this season since they brought in two players to the club but immediately they get here everything turn upside down.

But the funny part is that they are having good performance in the Champions League then if they can have that what is happening, I can't even point at one problem which I noticed from them, but I always blame the coach, he should do what he did last season to make things straight.

Concerning Liverpool, remember that last days of December where they went on a three games EPL winning streak, how did that end, with series of draws, Liverpool is an emotional Rollercoaster, although I can't bet on Man City but City looks more stable to win that match on Saturday.

And for the Arsenal v Chelsea game, a really intense game and Havertz found the opponent nets 90+ minutes into the end of the match ending goalless scoreline which I thought would be made by Chelsea.

There is a huge game this Sunday!!!

It's Liverpool vs Man City at Anfield.  

What's your thoughts on this lovely game? Liverpool are shown favourites by bookies. 2.32 for Liverpool and 2.78 for Man City to win... These 2 clubs have exactly the same form in last 5 games - 1W, 3D, 1L.

I think Liverpool step forward at home. Even though they are 8 points behind I can't say they are playing much worse than Man City lately. Especially with the help of those big recent wins I expect them to be more motivated.

The performance of Liverpool this season in the premier league is unstable. The match Liverpool is supposed to win, they will not win it, and the match you do not expect Liverpool to win, they will win the match, which makes it hard to predict what the results of Liverpool matches will be this season in the premier league, and the reason Liverpool is performing better in the champions league than in the premier league this season is because Liverpool is better than plenty of teams in the champions league this season and they do not know how to play against Liverpool.

You people fail miserably to understand that Liverpool is a team that is rebuilding transition, there have been so many Changes in the Liverpool squad, new players coming in and the Manager is also quite new, we could consider that he is new because after winning the Premier League mostly with Jurgen Klopp players, and right now he is trying to integrate the new players into the squad, and this things takes time, it doesn’t happen all of a sudden, and not all players that are signed from outside the Premier League will Click all of a sudden this things always takes time to happen, at some point the performance have been disappointing, but football doesn’t work absolutely as we have seen it, there are different tactics and training styles and routine and you have to adapt to the intensity of the Premier League, which is why you see clubs like Liverpool and Tottenham and Newcastle doing well in the Champions League and they struggle in the Premier League is because of the different style of play and different intensity, most teams in the Premier League doesn’t play football anymore they’re more interested in set pieces and corners and throwings, and playing a low block, this are different football and you have to adapt.

Of course, many people predicted that Liverpool would be the favorite team to win the Premier League this season due to the they were playing at the beginning of the season, Liverpool was playing like a team that aims to become another champion this season again, but we were wrong, they only proved that only to lose form in the league, Liverpool is not the only big teams that is struggling in the league this season, I consider Tottenham as the most worse team.

Arne Slot started the season with his own tactics, which different from what he used last season, and they did not start the season with the previous players that helped them to win the league last season, they sold some players while also signed some players, but the new signings are already adapting to the system, as they destroyed Newcastle in their last game.

In the past few games we have seen more stability from this Liverpool team, and even though they have been not too that convincing, but I think that arne slot deserves more time in this Liverpool team because he has earned the right for more time to turn things around completely.
The good thing is that they have realized that their biggest problem is their defense and Virgil van dijk has past his best days, so if he can be replaced with someone better, I believe that Liverpool will get back to the level they are known for in no distance time, and those calling for the sack of arne slot will later eat their word.

The current Liverpool manager is actually one of those with a good reputation. Many judged him when he first arrived at Anfield. I think every coach initially faces many challenges when coming to a new team one of which is that the strategy implemented isn't fully implemented by the players. As the second season approaches it will certainly become more challenging to achieve the desired results.

We can now see what the Liverpool team has achieved where they have found their best performance again under Arne Slot especially in the previous match they just won the match against one of the best teams in the EPL competition namely Newcastle United meaning that Liverpool is back on the winning track so that they are currently preparing in all lines because in the next match Virgil van Dijk will face Man City at home and I am sure that in that match they are more confident in the Liverpool team in winning than Man City.

[Hanadawa]

With the level of points Bruno Fernandes has won for Manchester United in the premier league this season, i don't think Manchester United will allow Bruno Fernandes to leave when they have not gotten a good midfield that will perform like Bruno Fernandes, so i think the rumor of Bruno Fernandes leaving Manchester United is not true, and people should not take the rumor very serious, because it could be that since Manchester United will do a serious upgrade in their midfield in the summer transfer window, people now think Bruno Fernandes will leave Manchester United.

While it's true that Manchester United will make major changes to their midfield and defense in this season's transfer window, I don't think Bruno Fernandes will be replaced by anyone else. He's the only player United can rely on when they're in poor form. Bruno's stats are excellent, even when Manchester United are on a winless streak. Furthermore, his role as captain isn't just about his consistent performance; he can also help boost morale, preventing players from dropping under pressure. So far, United have won three in a row, a very positive result. I'm curious to see if Manchester United can achieve five consecutive wins. Tottenham and West Ham shouldn't be difficult opponents given their current form.

[Stavri]

There’s no way Liverpool drops points at home. We are talking about last year’s champions, who are currently sitting 6th in the Premier League. and they are now 3rd in the Champions League table and 6 points off the pace. Given the circumstances, Anfield will be a fortress...

Is it the same Liverpool that have been playing rubbish this season is the one you are praising like this. Liverpool are not playing like they were the one that won the last premier league, because their performance is kind of terrible this season, I don’t expect them to lose or draw some of the matches which they have played this season.

Liverpool next match will be against Manchester city, the match is just going to be difficult to predict, because the two teams are not really consistent right now, and the match is just going to be difficult to predict. They both have equal chances of winning the match, and if we not careful the match might just end as draw.

Ok this might be Liverpool's worst first half performance in the last 5 or 10 years but even at their worst they finished 3rd in the Champions League group stage and beat Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid. But if you ask the birds they’d say Liverpool is trash. They probably think they’d drop 5 goals on them if they actually had the chance to play... yeah, right.

I have seen some improvement in Liverpool,they recent performance has been better but not alot. I also disagree with you for  blaming Virgil van dijk for Liverpool downfalls.  football is team work, everyone shares the responsibility. So when Liverpool failed to win or lose a game, everyone share equals blame because it's a team work. Virgil van dijk can't receive the blame alone, everyone including the Arne slot should part of the blamed. Liverpool can be stronger again if they start playing as team, both defence and their attack would be strong.

In Liverpool's defeat no one can be blamed as we know in football matches there are always surprises that are not the same as what we think even though there were mistakes made by Virgil Van Dijk in that match Virgil van Dijk cannot be blamed as well as Arne Slot, Arsenal's defeat was not due to the fault of the players and also the coach but luck was on the side of the opposing team the hard work of the players has been proven in the next match Arsenal will start well they are a strong team this season.

Their performance has been quite good in the last two matches and in these matches too their performance was considered weak but they achieved success by playing with hard work and effort. There was also hope of a draw in the match against Newcastle but Liverpool played well and achieved success and are further strengthening their position. Arsenal is still far away so they will have to go to the top by playing well and performing well. Liverpool was quite strong earlier but now the competition has become quite tough due to which Liverpool is now going down. Arsenal has also achieved success in today's match they do not make mistakes with carelessness rather they are getting stronger by getting points.

Manchester City are not at their best this season, so they are roughly level on points with Liverpool, although there is a slight difference.
I think Liverpool might be a little more relaxed playing at home, or perhaps a bit closer to winning. Both Liverpool and Manchester City desperately need this victory.
The team that shows more desire and concentration will win. Even though Manchester City have dropped more points in recent weeks, a win in this match would bring them much closer to Arsenal.

Manchester city from there previous matches has really failed to deliver especially the match between them and Tottenham. They were winning with 2 goals in the first half only for Tottenham to equalise the 2 goals in the second half.
As for this match between them and Liverpool. I don't think they can be able to win the match, despite how much they needed to win this match so that they can closed up the gap between them and Arsenal.

Man city performance is not impressive if they had been consistent they would have been ontop of the table, their 2-2 draw against Tottenham last week has drop them point for the title race, if they loss to Liverpool this weekend and Arsenal wins their match Man city will be out of the title race. Man city vs Liverpool match this sunday will be an interested match the both club are not performing well Man city will want to win to keep their title race hope alive and Liverpool will also play to win so they can secure a top four spot.

Liverpool performance has really dropped big time in this season premier League, and frankly speaking I don't know what to say about Liverpool poor performance in premier League. Because when this season started Liverpool was in good performance, to the extent people where already projecting them to win this season premier League title and all of sudden they lost form and currently they are the worst big team in this season premier League. people expected better from them but they keep messing up, when you expect them to performance very well, they end up performing terribly. Liverpool coach should better work on the team before things get worst.

Liverpool started the season very well. They won 5 consecutive matches. No other team has been able to do such a consistent performance. But even after that, Liverpool's performance deteriorated badly. They started performing poorly consistently and lost the top spot in the table.

Liverpool's performance is still very erratic. Despite having a strong squad, their performance is not stable. This is sad. They have won only one match in the last 5 matches. They are sixth in the points table.

It is impossible for Liverpool to compete for the title. They are 14 points behind Arsenal. If such an irregular performance continues, they will not even be able to qualify for the Europa League.

[Volgastallion]

In which games are you gonna bet my friends?

I feel like the better one to bet is the Manchester United Totenham by far, is again a batle between two super irregular teams, i know Manchester United now seems to have adquiere some regularity but they still have so solidify it so im not gonna be sure about it after a few more games with solid wins. Totenham comes from a good comeback against Manchester City so they have high hopes for this game for sure.

Football is not really about how well you start but how consistent you can be and if you’re not able to be consistent with your good performance and win matches you'll drop, some teams start poorly and pick up along the line. Take a look at Manchester United, nobody thought they'll cone this far but they've surprisingly regained confidence under Michael Carrick, improved and reached the top 4. Liverpool is still struggling to recover their form, i doubt if they'll be able to qualify for the top 4 except they improve then those at the top drop form.
