It is not about pessimism but I would say it is rather facts.
EPL is one of the hardest leagues to play in. Many teams competing each other in the top places and sometimes few points count. Arsenal were a pain in the back of Manchester City for many weeks. Manchester United and Newcastle were close but they missed many opportunities to get even closer. Spurs, Liverpool and Chelsea might get back their form next season.
I assume next season will be hard for everyone of them and that City will win again EPL title

But at the beginning of Potter's entry into Chelsea to replace the coaching bench left by Tuchel, in fact, at the beginning of his debut at Chelsea, he was able to provide quite good improvements. Even at that time, the first few matches that Potter entered Chelsea several times to get successive wins. But I don't know what happened then Chelsea's performance again decreased. it was as if potter's strategy had failed again and Chelsea had made no progress since then.

I personally don't see the fault in the coach. Because even Tuchel, who is a coach who has presented many trophies for Chelsea, also failed to make Chelsea improve, it is only natural that Potter and Lampard also failed.

I think coaching at Chelsea has too much pressure there so coaches are not free to make changes to the squad they train.

Tottenham do not place a high priority on adding new players; instead, they prefer to rely on its current and upcoming players. I believe it is about time for them to pay more attention to transfer windows and add more players in order to enhance their squad and boost their performance in the league. They're simply a less competitive team in the Premier League currently, and they don't really fight for anything important anymore. They must understand their priorities and work toward them for the benefit of the entire team.

If I should say the least, I would say that Arsenal was a big disappointment to themselves and their fans in this season premier league tournament, their story perfectly describes what "from grace to grass" truly mean, I personally can not understand what really went wrong with them, being the best and all of a sudden, just like a switch was turned off, they lost traction and began losing matches, and only managed to draw a few, should I say that their falling out was due to them being overwhelmed by their winnings and how the world was cheering for them at that moment which maybe got into their heads which caused them to all of a sudden, loose their charm...

Anyways, they have another opportunity to prove themselves in the champions league next season, let's hope they get themselves together before the season begin.

I feel since Lampard did not do well I feel Pochettino should be given a chance and Chelsea fans are really excited to see what they will become under his management, his appointment might actually favor Chelsea and his not doing well in PSG might be an experience for him to use as a tool to improve Chelsea, both PSG and Chelsea had a similar issue just that PSG is still better than Chelsea and with time even chelsae will take shape, I also noticed that Chelsea players are finding it difficult to understand each other they have very poor teamwork which is one of the major problems that clubs face. at least Chelsea needs to get ready for next season and prepare well if they want to survive.

There's no doubt to the fact that Chelsea was the biggest flop the just come concluded English Premier League season and that's understandably because of the position they finished in at the end of the season despite the numerous world class players in their possession.
Graham Potter's clueless style of football was the main reason for the club's failure and Frank Lampard was called upon to come the rescue of a club he played and managed in the past but little did the Chelsea owner know that he's gonna leave them fighting for survival in the league

The cycle will change and they will not dominate the Premier League forever. You have to look back at that time Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal were the most dominating teams regarding titles but all that changed when Pep Guardiola came in and coached Manchester City. Pep Guardiola has made Manchester City dominate the Premier League in the last 6 seasons, but that will surely change with time.

Arsenal were champions in the past, so are Liverpool and Manchester United. So the competition will be very fierce every season so it's natural for you not to always be optimistic about one team.

arsenal is still away from man city, even though at the start of the 22/23 season they looked really great but at the end of the season they turned into a weak team and that is really worrying. while man city they continue to show their best quality and guardiola managed to build a great team on all fronts (midfield, front and back). I am pessimistic that Man City can maintain the brand's good performance in the future because the competition in the EPL is very tight.

I can call Chelsea as biggest failer of this season because of the results they got and the performance they had. Chelsea hire a coach who didn't have the experience to manage the team and that's why Chelsea with Potter failed instead of saking Potter and using another coach they kept Potter and that's why they lost even more points.
Losing these huge amounts of points was enough to have a bad effect on players and they even had bad relationships and blame each other.
This cycle made Chelsea fail this season to be in 12th place of that be.

Pep Guardiola has indeed built a squad that is not only good on the front lines but also good on the back lines. And even the Man City midfield player is also a player who is really flexible and can help the front and back lines effectively. The point is Pep Guardiola has succeeded in making Man City have a quality game that is without gaps and balanced on all fronts.

And comparing it to Arsenal in the season that just ended I think there really is a sizeable difference in strength between Arsenal and Man City. We can even see the evidence with several Arsenal vs Man City meetings, which Man City always wins quite easily. Arteta still has a lot to improve Arsenal in the coming season. But if Arsenal is compared to other teams besides Man City, Arsenal are also clearly superior and more consistent than any other team in the Premier League except Man City.

Manchester city has built a defensive line that has the combination of speed and power, which is the greatest need of physical football, born against the dominance that Guardiola has created in the recent past, by constantly spending the biggest budget on the defense zone since the day he came, and finally getting the consistency he wanted. And with the departure of quarterback Cancello in January, this profile got even sharper: an army of elephants with the physique of the defender + the energy of the fullback at the same time. In short, the city has turned into a stronger poison that also kills the current antidote, the system is now working almost perfectly. I don't think it can be even compared to Arsenal in some aspects, or any other team in that matter.

I personally think there is no reason to get too excited about coach Pochettino. Just because Chelsea has changed coaches doesn't mean they will play well next season. Coach Pochettino is quite experienced. However, Pochettino was not successful with the PSG team. Despite having many star players, he could not stabilize the PSG team. Chelsea's problems are much the same. Chelsea also has a lot of star players in their squad. And their performance is poor due to poor bonding between team players. So we are not yet sure whether Pochettino will succeed with this team.

We've talked about this before, it's been a really terrible season for Tottenham. They lost their chance to play in Europe with only 1 point difference. If they hadn't lost so many points in the last weeks, we could say that they would have very different goals right now.
They are not as ambitious and strong as they used to be, they must make new transfers to the team if they want to be successful next year. Otherwise, they will finish the season with such a ranking

As a Gunners supporter, I actually don't really expect that they will win a trophy, especially in the 2022-23 season. even though I had been at the top of the standings for several weeks, what made me not too optimistic was Arteta. why, like I said before in many posts. there are a number of things that we can criticize what Arteta did, especially when making decisions. not infrequently, he always makes the wrong decision and even tends to be late. plus, he tends to ignore the performance of his core team. I mean, if one of his core teams underperforms several times, he should rotate it with substitutes. I saw that there were several matches where Buyako Xaka played very badly. however, Arteta did not try to pull him out and replace him. apart from that, like Martinelli, Arteta tends to always put up his core squad even though some of them are underperforming. in fact, they have Trossard, Emile Smith Rowe, even Jorginho if Partey is bad at his game.

Towards the end of the season, in several matches Arteta made the mistake of making Fabio Viera and at the same time Rob Holding. in fact, he has other players who are more ideal for rotation. in the end, they lost points and gave up City to reduce the difference in points to shift the top of the Premier League standings. even so, however I appreciate what Arteta has done, his mission this time was considered successful in bringing Arsenal to 2nd place. Furthermore, Arsenal can again become a strong competitor for City next season.

Tottenham is just in a bad situation right now. It is not impossible for them to come out of this situation. But it will certainly take time. A lot of players are going to leave Tottenham by the time they are trying to fix the problems that they have. Tottenham had a good squad to work with most of the time. But they have failed to actually achieve a good result even when they had a good squad.

With Harry Kane certainly leaving the club it is going to be a lot harder for them to achieve whatever they want to do. A big reason why players are not going to be interested to play for Tottenham they are not participating in the European competition.

Also, I'm not sure about the "frugal" because anyway, I think it's obvious that Todd Boehly could easily put a lot of money into building a Chelsea team and that's happened before too. So, with the overview from the previous season, I believe Pochettino will find it easy to build and reorganize the team according to his wishes because Chelsea have good finances too. Also, as a target, of course Chelsea will probably target to win the title, because if this target fails then at least Chelsea will still have a big chance to finish in the top four next season.

You can count on Chelsea to deliver next season, Pochettino isn't a bad coach. For over four seasons I watched him keep Tottenham at the top without much funding from the owners of the club but now he's incharge of a club that didn't shy away from spending so I'm expecting him to achieve greatness with Chelsea. Next season Chelsea will not be under any pressure as they won't be playing any European football therefore they'll have all the time to train and rest after each premier league game next season and the last time Chelsea was in such a position they win the Premier league with Conte so I'm expecting something similar form Pochettino as we're already assured of finishing in top 4.

Wth Manchester united i have no expectations from them then qualifying for the top 4 position again by the end of the season. Only Newcastle I think will leave the top 4 by the end of the season then Arsenal and Liverpool fight for the last spot. It might not technically mean they'll finish 4th but one of them will be among the clubs to qualify in the top 4 position. Chelsea has to get it right this time around, last season has to be a season we should forget about because nothing was just going our way and that's because we sacked our manager and hired an inexperienced manager thinking we hired a top manager.

Chelsea not participants in Champion League and Europe League next season after finish on 12 standings placed, but give advantage for next season focus with domestic league only and bigger chance for finish on top fourth standing for next season. Pochettino have experienced when becoming Tottenham Hotspur manager and consistent finish on top fourth standings, I don't doubt with his reputation make Chelsea get top fourth position in next season.

Pochettino success become Chelsea head coach and removed two strong candidate with Luis Henrique and Julian Nagelsmann, I think he has show his capacity why Chelsea management priority for choosing as head coach by winning tittle for next season.

These types of teams Always show their strength last and I think I have said this at the beginning of football seasons in LIGUE 1 , Bundesliga, PL , if a team showed this level from the beginning they would not have such a strong job Finally , if you don't have to ask Bayern how they Suffered so much when Dortmund began to weigh on their heels, this type of team is like that , now what Southampton did was a great feat . The only thing is that he showed more level to the last and almost when it doesn't make sense to do it, that's fine , I know that encourages them , but I think they have to be consistent.

I think that apart from what you say it is very true, but for me the real culprit for this is the technical director, because it is a case very similar to what happened to Chelsea, with great players and with a lot of talent and they did not hesitate. do absolutely nothing, this is something that means that things can be done in other ways, I personally think that, apart from the fact that Arsenal sometimes plays well or badly, then it is ruled out that the players are to blame, This is something that cannot be ruled out, however, according to the experience I have in football, for me the culprit is the coach, just as Madrid lost the opportunity to reach the UCL final, it was only Ancelotti's fault.

Aston Villa 'delighted' to reach full agreement on Youri Tielemans transfer as Arsenal miss out on midfield target

Maybe that was Spurs' only best achievement in the Champions League competition, but unfortunately they lost to fellow English teams at that time, Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp's squad brought the Champions League trophy to Anfield. Now Spurs' situation is getting complicated and no one knows when their inconsistency will end. But if later the arrival of a new coach can have a significant impact, at least it will be better next season than this season. But that's not all that is wanted from one of these strong English teams, at least spurs should be able to win a trophy even though their chances are very small for the next few seasons.
