Topic: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 - page 3043. (Read 793499 times)

After a hectic ruin off in the last season,  there have managed to build their team to a certain level that suggest a bigger outlook for Liverpool this season and from the results of the few matches that have already been played,  a lot of hopes are now on high for their fans on this weeks meeting with Aston villa.

But then also,  Astom Villa on the other hand shouldn't be underestimated too much because their recent performance also places them in some form of advantage and since they are up against a bigger club, they may put up their best foot.

After a thrilling week, Liverpool will be Aston Villa this week. What they achieved against Newcastle should be more motivation for them in this match. Aston Villa is not an easy opponent for them to beat. They can win 2 wins and one defeat, and the defeat they achieved against Newcastle and they lost with a landslide score.
If we talk about logic, then Liverpool should be able to beat ASton Villa too because they can beat Newcastle. But football does not always prioritize logic, here there are things that we might not have expected before.

Easy, they're Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United.

Chelsea will not able to finish in the top four because Nkunku suffer long term injury and there are many players are currently injured too. I think it's already a big achievement if Chelsea can finish in 7th position because they're not that good.

West Ham, Newcastle, and Tottenham might look convincing, but they're not able to maintain their good performance for long term.

I agree that Kai Havertz has been out of shape since joining Arsenal from Chelsea; he hasn't been able to regain his form following an awful season at Chelsea before leaving. To me, Thomas Partey is still performing well, and not as poorly as when compared to Kai Havertz. He was considering leaving the club, but I believe the deal fell through. This could explain why his performance hasn't been as outstanding, but he still performs better and is a better option for a starting XI than Kai Havertz.


Finishing in the top four of the Premier League table is something that no one or any club can predict right now; they still have a long way to go and many games to play before that can be determined.  At least halfway through the season, we can identify clubs with the ability to finish in the top four of the standings. In the case of Chelsea, I remain optimistic that a change will occur this season, and that they will play better and progress under Pochettino's management as expected by him.

It's a common thing. So many new players were needed to adapt to the club. It takes longer than what i have expected but it's still fine at this moment. As long as chelsea will not be losing like last season. I will not complaint regarding it.
So many players owned by chelsea are still young. The young players need more time to build their relationship to the others to create good chemistry. People will always be expecting the young players can adapt easily but any players have different time span adapting to the club. I will not care how much scores made by chelsea as long as the club is winning and that's enough for me to see that. In fact, many young players in chelsea are still lack of experience.
This is also preventing the young players to get more knowledge from its senior as many of them already kicked out from chelsea. There are some but these guys were not really able teaching all of them. Chelsea lacks of senior striker and midfielder as well.

Arteta should revert to his 4:2:3:1 former formation by changing  his unusual formation where he usually play Ben White and Thomas Partey out of position, I think in the next fixture against Man Utd, Partey, Rice and Ødegaard should  play in the midfield while Zinchenko play at the left full back position while occasionally drifting to the midfield while Ben White should play his right full back, meanwhile Havertz should be benched because he hasn't performed up to expectations in all the previous matches he played, I think Arteta should also consider Pablo Viera as a substitute in that match because he always make meaningful impact whenever he came on I believe he would replicate that performance again.

Chelsea have invested heavily in the last two seasons and this season Pochettino has been tasked with returning to glory. But until now there has been no sign of a resurgence from the team based at Stamford Bridge, their game has not been fully integrated, which has made Chelsea fans quite worried about the state of their team. It's not easy for any manager to raise the team's morale quickly, but I think Chelsea still has a chance to recover, but I'm pessimistic that they will finish in the top four.

Mikel Arteta has already chosen his best XI for the next season, and he has devised a fantastic formation for his club. In league games, the Gunners use a 4-3-3 formation and have had favorable outcomes. Arsenal will be more competitive than the previous season because they signed promising players who will improve the club's performance; it's only a matter of time before things finally turn around for them. When it comes to Kai Havertz and Thomas Partey, it's evident that they're out of shape, but they're doing their best to adjust to the team's expectations.

That's right, the opportunity for a club as big as Chelsea is always there, even though I'm still not sure about Chelsea's current results, that's okay. There is still time to develop and find his game again. However, it cannot be denied that other clubs besides Chelsea have developed earlier. Let Pochettino do his job, because apart from player support he must also be given full trust by Chelsea owners in rearranging and selecting his players.

Then to be able to see Chelsea's stability we need to wait until mid-season. So it can be a consideration whether or not Pochettino is suitable for the players he brings in. In my opinion, this season Chelsea can still compete with Manchester United. The reason is simple because the characteristics of Chelsea players are far more manageable than Manchester United.

Chelsea are currently performing exceptionally well. Starling, the attacking player of the team, is able to score exceptionally well, while Enzo Fernandez supports the attacking players from the midfield. If the team performs like this, I hope they can do something great in the future.

Chelsea's mentality was tested in last night's match because they had to try to beat AFC Wimbledon at Stamford Bridge and even though they fell behind at first, Chelsea managed to make a comeback in the second half. In the EFL competition against a much weaker team, of course, it will always be a challenge for Chelsea because their performance has not been stable at all.

From the start, Chelsea also only included their tier players to face AFC Wimbledon but still in the second half they needed their main players to be able to win this match. If Chelsea lose it will certainly be very embarrassing, on the other hand they have to save the energy of their main players for this week's EPL match against Nottingham. Obviously this is quite draining of energy and thought at the same time they have to continue to get consistent results every week.

When Pochettino arrived, many of Chelsea's old players had left the club, and with only a handful of players remaining in the team, it was like the messy puzzle pieces that defined the Chelsea team.
But I see Pochettino putting the puzzle together and building a solid team again.
I agree with you, I believe Pochettino's Chelsea team can compete with the top teams in the league, it just takes time to see Chelsea again as a team worth considering to win the Premier League.

Arteta's formation and changing of player's position is kind of disturbing the play of Arsenal, getting Partey to the right back is just outrageous and I believe that if Arteta brings Partey back to the DM things would work smoothly for the Gunners, Havartz should be coming from the bench, I know Arteta wants him to blend in as soon as possible but his time will come I believe so. With this style of play (getting Partey to play from the defense) I believe Arsenal are going nowhere and it will hurt the team so bad that before December the Gunners will be struggling to come out from the second half of the table.

I expect Arteta to drop Havartz bring Partey back in the midfield to pattern with Rice and let Trossard to replace Havartz but hiding Thomas Partey from that midfield is just not going to make Arsenal play well and win games.
If Arteta continue with that crazy formation, pushing Partey to the right side of the defense it would make Manchester United beat Arsenal.

Partey will have a huge responsibility to keep acheck on Bruno Fernandes. Well it's not only Fernandes but also the player on the wings as well. I am glad that there will be Ben white against Garnacho and on the left will have Tomiyasu to check on Antony but it's not about defending only. We as a title contender want to win games and we definitely need our wingers to get in form and keep pressure on opponents. Hope that we will take on the scoring opportunities well to win to get those 3 points but it will be really hard against ten Haag's side.

Chelsea has 84% ball possesions so it's clearly they really dominate the match but nothing special with these statistics because FC Wimbeldon is the team from League Two so it's normal if they win from this match but previously i was expect Chelsea can able to win with big scores but Pochettino looks didn't give his priority for this match because at starting lineup i have seen at least Chelsea used 6 young players but i can understand why Pochettino want to ignoring this game because after win from Luton i think Chelsea want to aiming their winning streak and next weekend they will fight against Nottingham Forest so they have to more focus for this match

No one really expected Chelsea to return to the top four in such a short time after they replaced most of their players with new players. They have renovated their squad on a large scale and they have spent billions of dollars on it, but still Pochettino needs time to get the best form from his team.

Of course this will not be easy because every player has a different time and way in the adaptation process, but if Pochettino is really able to make these players bring out their best potential then I think it will be difficult to beat Chelsea in the future. For this season, Chelsea is not a strong team compared to Liverpool or Manchester United, but they have the opportunity to develop rapidly over time.

Manchester United is seriously shaking this season and if they don't get serious with the whole situation then they might end up in the same situation as Chelsea last season, Manchester's united attack is seriously very weak which is affecting the performance of the club, but is not only about, buying players the probability of that player to give you what you want, and even arsenal is not to doing well this season and Arteta seriously needs to adjust in term of strategy, manchester city is already on its way to do what they know how to do best which is to win and what surprises me the most is that the fact that other clubs don't want to win or what is wrong with all the money spent.



In the Manchester United case am still wondering where the problem is coming from Is it from the players that were newly purchased or what? last season Manchester United's performance was super impressive, It was a multi-flipp between Newcastle and United and I feel Newcastle will even leave Manchester United behind, I know the game that shocked everyone was when Tottenham won two zeros, nobody expected it, that is football doh expect anything to happen, maybe manchester united needed some time to adjust and start delivering, and facing arsenal is not going to be an easy challenge.

 Today is the final day of the transfer window and one club i expect to be very busy today is Manchester united, i expect them to try getting atleast 2 or 3 players today even if it's a loan deal because i don't know how they'll cope in the premier league this season with lack of much signings to help strengthen the weak areas of the club, they currently need a replacement for left back position, a defensive midfielder to support Casimiro and either a striker or central back, but since Rasmus Højlund would be returning soon i think they should loan a Cb to replace Varane since Maguire is not compitent and they'll need someone to support Martinez and lindelof.
 If you noticed Manchester united are the only big team that didn't take the transfer window seriously and i wonder how Erik Ten Hag is going to cope with just 3 signings against other top EPL clubs that's strengthened several areas of their squad depth, their team looks weak and it's going to be a big problem for ten Hag this season if nothing is done before the end of the window today.

Give Chelsea a break, last season they struggled against any team they played against and found it very difficult to score goals. This season even if they have not really faced a good test to show how well they have improved, they have shown the signs already by not losing to lower ranked teams that have played them with strong intentions to win and prove a point. Chelsea won against Luton and were able to come back from a goal down to win AFC Wimbledon who scored first. Chelsea will play against a strong Nottingham Forest that almost disgraced Manchester United this season with early goals, Chelsea will have to be careful of that and try to stop Awoniyi because they will have a big problem if Nottingham Forest scores first.

Chelsea victory over AFC Wimbledon in the EFL Cup, I believe really cannot be used as a measure of success. Because after all, AFC Wimbledon is only a team that plays in League Two and it is a lower caste. So yes, for Chelsea performance is also actually still very unimpressive because after all, the victory Chelsea got in the Premier League also only when Chelsea played against Luton, which again, Luton is a promotion team. So yes, with these results then at least Chelsea still have to improve their performance and quality in the Premier League. Because if not, then Chelsea will find it difficult to be and compete in the top zone in the Premier League standings this season.
