Topic: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 - page 1726. (Read 776354 times)

Liverpool has been playing really well recently and I think we have to give them credit for that. They have been doing very well. And they have also been able to redeem themselves after a lot of criticism in recent years. The coach of Liverpool is doing really well and bringing good results as well. Not only in the FA Cup, but even in the English Premier League Liverpool is doing really well.

Yes, they have played one match more compared to Manchester City. But I can see they have a lead of five points. So even if Manchester City is able to win the next match, the difference is going to be there. Klopp has a great chance to make Liverpool win the English Premier League title before he leaves.

Its difficult for underdog team Aston Villa will consistent on the top fourth standings position and have chance fighting for Premier League tittle in this season, but not close the opportunity this season will get one Champion League spot standings because unusual big four premier league teams have inconsistency performance such as Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea get difficult for finishing top fourth position.

For Premier League tittle races seems will dominance by Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal who has small points left for returning to the top position. I have close prediction with Liverpool will be candidate for winning Premier League in this season and Manchester City seems finish on second position standing. But the opportunity for Manchester City will defend their tittle in this season not close yet because Pep Guardiola success improving teams performance after dropping from top fourth and current standings on 2nd place behind 5 points left with one match more than Liverpool.

Norwich is not strong enough to compete with Liverpool, and after they are relegated, they still struggle to get promoted back to the Premier League, so Liverpool deserves to win the game. I don't think Liverpool will win every trophy this season; they still have the Caraboa Cup final to play against Chelsea. They may win the Caraboa Cup, but it will still be tough for them to win Premier League and FA Cup because Manchester City is a big threat to them. Since the entire squad of Manchester City is back in form.


It was disappointed for Manchester United to concede two goals; their performance is not good enough. I had anticipated that Manchester United would score a lot of goals without concede any goal; this is not the performance we expected from Manchester United. They struggle against Newport County, which is ranked 16th in League Two. When the season was almost finished, Antony scored his first goal of the season against a weak team. The Manchester United defense was weak to defend their home, even with Martinez back i thought their performance will improve. Although they won, their performance is bad.

I consider Liverpool to be the favourite club in the English Premier League this season because of how they have been performing this season; they are currently doing well, and they have been topping the sport. Although there are other clubs like Manchester City and Arsenal that I’m thinking will be a challenge for Liverpool, but I’m still expecting Liverpool to do something positive anytime these two teams get a match with them. Although I can see that Manchester City are not having good season compared to last season, if Liverpool dominate and double up their performance, they will deliver well.

The game between Liverpool and Norwich, obviously, I know that Norwich is not capable of beating Liverpool, even the goals they scored. I was surprised because I didn’t expect they would score, so I can say that they tried by getting those two goals. Also, Liverpool is stronger than Norwich, so I am not surprised they won.

There is still time for them to think about who they should appoint to replace Jurgen Klopp. But they also shouldn't be too relaxed, because other teams could also be eyeing the same coach as them, and if they are a little late maybe the coach will choose the team that contacted him first.
I hope they appoint a coach who has the same style of play or with the same pattern. Because if they appoint a coach who has that, it could be risky because they might make major changes in the squad. But if they appoint a coach with the same style of play it is likely that they will continue what Klopp has built.

Conceding two goals is a sign that their defense is still quite penetrable by opposing players, they must be able to anticipate that as much as possible to reduce the intensity of their goal conceded.
Despite all that, they played very well in this match and were able to create goals. They pressed from the start and scored in the 16th minute although a few minutes later the opposition equalized. But they were also quick to respond and regained the lead in the 28th minute and the score stood until the end of the first half. In the second half they played impressively again and as a result they scored goal after goal to ensure victory.

There are still 2 days left, we will see how Arsenal will face Nottingham, but this match is a little doubtful because Arsenal will be playing as guest at home to Nottingham.
Meanwhile, Nottingham is usually club that can always be stronger when competing at home because we all know that away or home has big influence on the final result of a match on the one hand, Arsenal is currently in an unstable situation.
Even though Nottingham is in 16th place in the points table, I'm sure we all know that Nottingham has beaten Manchester united and Newcastle at that time.
I'm worried that in this match Arsenal will have the same fate because Arsenal will definitely lose a little enthusiasm when playing away from home.
From my predictions for the result of this match, if Arteta uses  defensive formation, I'm sure it will end in a draw, but if Arteta uses an attacking strategy, it looks like it would be a little worse if they were defeated by Nottingham.

In fact, what was quite surprising about this match was how Liverpool conceded two goals to Norwich City because it proved that Liverpool's defense was quite easy to penetrate, moreover, they played with full strength so that victory was very possible and according to predictions, and the five goals scored by Liverpool were scored by five different players, and with this victory they continue to open up opportunities to also be able to win the trophy in this cup and the next round will be against Southampton or Watford and in terms of strength Liverpool remains above the two teams that will be their opponents so that their chances of progressing to the next round in the FA The cup is still wide open.

Liverpool is indeed much more consistent this season, different from last season where Liverpool had an inconsistent performance. And this season we can even say that Liverpool are the most consistent in the EPL. And the proof is that Liverpool leads the current standings in the EPL. Manchester City has experienced a decline since De Bruyne was absent from the start of the season and since Haaland was injured. But his condition has improved again since De Bruyne returned to the field. But what is extraordinary about Manchester City is that even when they experience a decline in performance, their quality is still superior to other teams. So when they can play again with their full strength, it is possible that Manchester City will return to leading the standings and overtake Liverpool.

Liverpool managed to score 5 goals in the FA Cup and Manchester United also doesn't seem to want to lose in scoring lots of goals. So Manchester United also managed to score 4 goals in the FA Cup match. Liverpool and Manchester United got easy wins in yesterday's match. And yes, that was expected by all of us. Because Manchester United and Liverpool have qualities above their opponents in this match.

It's true, it's not yet known for certain who Klopp's replacement will be at Liverpool, because becoming a successful coach like Klopp is not easy, everything requires a very long process and time to be integrated into the squad's game. Regarding this problem, I don't think Xabi Alonso wants to leave Leverkusen, because he is very comfortable and has succeeded in implementing very good formations and strategies in the squad he currently holds. Hopefully Liverpool management can choose the best to become Liverpool coach to replace Klopp next season.

For some teams, the FA Cup is used as an opportunity to try to field a combination of regular players and reserve players, but for some teams, the FA Cup competition is also a priority to achieve the goal of becoming champions. Liverpool, who will part ways with Klopp at the end of the season, are also very serious about looking at the oldest tournament in the world. I'm sure the Reds are very ambitious to present the title at farewell.

Manchester United also wants to prove its capacity. Even though they only had easy opponents, the Red Devils had to work extra hard to advance to the next round. Yes, Ten Hag also has ambitions for this tournament even though he has to make several decisions to carry out his plans well.

Liverpool's performance is quite consistent even though they rotate a lot of players, I am not surprised by the performance and wins they achieved and also Norwich is a team whose quality is far below Liverpool so it is almost impossible for them to win the match.

I think many of the favorite teams don't field the main squad because they have much weaker opponents and things are fierce and a lot of goals are scored which is normal but the most important thing is the final result and there were no surprises this week, the victory was celebrated by I think Manchester United is not much different from what Liverpool experienced.

Feels like I've seen this comment elsewhere. Lol, that I eventually agree with no doubts with that but do you even watch Marcus? Sick and tired of the lad even if I hate to judge players lately he's been completely poor and it's affected him and also the performance of Manchester United since they've so much relied on him.

No body says he shouldn't go out for fun and stuff, earlier this season his excuse was about losing his cousin ( In the blessed memory )
I hope he begin giving Manchester United more than they actually play him, that's exactly what the fans has long expected.

I also doubt Aston Villa will stay in the title race. Maybe even just fighting for the top 4 positions as you said. And don't forget Spurs who will also be fighting to get into the top 4 rankings. Aston Villa will have their strength tested in the next few days against Newcastle, who also stayed in the top 4 for a long time at the start of this season. But unfortunately Newcastle was unlucky because a hurricane of injuries hit their club which made them eliminated from the UCL and also dropped further in the EPL standings.

About Man City good news has come. I watched an interview with Pep Guardiola who said that Haaland might play a few minutes in the upcoming match against Burnley. Because Haaland's condition no longer even feels pain since he has been training since December. It's just that maybe at that time he was still not comfortable with his condition and needed further recovery. I like how Man City is not in a hurry to play their mainstay players who have recovered from injury. They are thinking about the long term for Haaland and the club so waiting until Haaland is absolutely sure that he has recovered is indeed the best.

Despite launching a squad with many young players and reserves, Liverpool quickly dominated. Klopp sent the three best strikers he had, Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, and Cody Gakpo, to the field from the start to help them find the feeling of scoring goals. Although Norwich created a few small surprises, Liverpool's players showed their class and convincingly advanced to the next round. This is the perfect momentum run for Klopp and his team before the match against Chelsea.

It seemed like an easy match in the fourth round, but MU had to work hard to defeat fourth-place team Newport County. It's worth mentioning here that the return of Lisandro Martinez cannot bring immediate results. Or, to be more precise, he alone is not enough to cover up the mistakes in MU's defense. If Newport County is luckier, it's unknown what will happen. Anyway, with this result, MU has won a ticket to play in round 5.

Xabi is quite great coach and if Xabi collaborates with Liverpool as Klopp replacement coach then that is good because we can be sure that Liverpool can maintain its performance as one of the strongest teams in the Premier League, especially since there is big opportunity for Liverpool to have the opportunity to compete in the UCL competition.
It looks like Xabi will be great coach for Liverpool and I believe Xabi will never disappoint if he succeeds in having contract agreement with Liverpool, it just that the clarity of this rumor cannot really be confirmed accurately.
But just imagine, Leverkusen, which only has few players who can be said to be good enough, can be transformed by Xabi into the strongest Bundesliga team, while Liverpool has lots of great players and you can be sure what it would be like if Liverpool were under coach Xabi Alonso.
There will be big opportunity for Liverpool again next season and of course Xabi will definitely work well as he has brought Leverkusen to fairly stable and consistent achievement at the top of the Bundesliga standings.
This is really long-awaited news, especially for Liverpool fans, they will definitely be happy if it is true that Xabi can have contract agreement with Liverpool.

Liverpool defeated Norwich City 5-2 at home to advance to the next round.Liverpool dominated the match compared to their opponents and could have scored more goals.Norwich felt the pressure from the first minutes and there was not much Norwich could do.Liverpool are again the favorites in every competition this season and they are playing well.It would not be a surprise if they win both the league title and the cup.
Manchester United, on the other hand, beat Newport County 4-2 away from home to advance to the next round.Manchester had more possession than their opponents and had a bit of difficulty in beating their opponents.Their opponents also had as many chances but I think they couldn't score because of inexperience.Altay Bayindir, I think it was his first game and he didn't play too badly.I think he can be better if he can find a permanent form.

I would like to call that these coaches (klopp and xavi) were not even professional in giving this bad statement when the club was reaching the peak performance but barcelona is a different case caused by the club keeps plunged to the bottom. I lost my respects to those guys since they were not even cosnidering their statement might be affecting the performance from their clubs. They are still a few months away from the end of season and how can they say this now? It was only making the situation even worst. I do understand they have good intention but they were announcing in the bad time. They are not looked like professional coaches after all.

I can still understand that if they were having their emoiton that they forgot to control it but klopp and xavi can do that better by announcing it at the end of season. It will be greatly helping the club to play stable. Klopp should be aware if his club is on the way to go to the EPL trophy.
He can at least try to delay it till the end of season. There are millions who feel sad caused by his announcement. Yet this can also give positive impact to the performance from the club if they were seeing winning trophy is a must as the farewell give for their head coach.
Liverpool's players will be trying even harder to win the trophy soon. Im feeling that if liverpool may able to give at least 1 trophy for klopp. The match against chelsea is going to be very important match for the club to give klopp a strophy before he will leave from there.

All of the matches were involving the big clubs were doing perfectly. It's started with manchester united which was winning 2 goals against its opponent while liverpool was also getting big win against norwich which was a lower division club. It has proven that if liverpool is not even encoutering any problem since salah was leaving from the club due to the injury.
Newcastle is also getting a perfect result in this match and i think that if we will be seeing interesting match in FA to begin soon. The next round will be happening around 7-8 february and the continuation the match of chelsea vs aston villa will happen soon.

I expect there will be a different scheme to be used by aston villa in the upcoming game. Pochettino needs to be even more careful with his club. Chelsea sees this as an opportunity to win the second trophy after it goes to the final of carabao cup against liverpool.
FA cup is just even more interesting caused by there will be so many big clubs to face each other in the next round. Chelsea can see this as an opportunity to get a trophy this season if carabao will be failed against liverpool.

That's a good result for all of big clubs yesterday coz they are all winning the game with the perfect results.

Some local media reported that Xabi Alonso would take over Liverpool although there has been no official statement, we believe that Liverpool management will be interested in cooperating with him, besides that Xabi Alonso has been part of Liverpool since 2004 so I think there is no problem in the negotiation process. Xabi Alonso is currently a concern after successfully bringing Leverkusen to the top of the standings also recorded a good record in the European League so he deserves to be in Liverpool. The only obstacle is whether Leverkusen will let him go? because the contract will end in 2026.

it is difficult to say who is more worthy and will be a strong contender to win the EPL title this season because the point difference between the teams in the top 5 in the standings is still very close without exception, even Aston Villa still has the opportunity to compete with Man City, Liverpool and also Arsenal because The point difference is currently very close and can still be achieved by teams in the top 5 in the standings.
I don't doubt any team that is in the top 5 at the moment because of the fact that Spurs and Aston Villa were once at the top of the standings even though only temporarily and currently these two teams are lacking consistency to maintain their current position.

as long Haaland hasn't returned to Man City I won't say anyone deserves to be the leader because there are still 10+ matches to go in this EPL but if Haaland returns I'm sure Man City will return to the top of the standings and on the one hand Liverpool mainstay player Salah has also not been able to appear with Liverpool and if he can return again the competition will definitely be more competitive.

however, if teams like Aston Villa and Spurs are unable to compete, I'm sure they will only maintain their position because they want to get tickets to the UCL and european League next season.
