2024/5 Season PREDICTIONS

[Frogfish]

OK we seem to be missing this thread for the 2024/5 season.

As usual I'll be forecasting City's demise (they've been dropping off and I think they are weaker again this year), surely it'll finally come to fruition!

TOP 4
Arsenal
Liverpool
City
Chelsea (if they get Toney)

Relegated Teams (exc. PL point deductions or auto-relegation)
Ipswich
Everton (at last)
Southampton

Player of the Season
Haaland

Manager of the Season

FA Cup
City

League Cup (someone who takes it seriously)
Spurs

CL Final & Winners

The liverpool.com podcast (that I hate, but listen to as it is on the Echo's podcast channel) had a predictions pod. The best one in it was "predict the surprise of the season", neither one of the verbal diarrheic presenters even noticed the contradiction in terms contained therein.

I have a default setting, I think we have the bare minimum to compete on all fronts and am so happy that there is less chaos in our games now. So for me as a Liverpool fan, I always back the team to be WINNERS OF ALL COMPETITIONS.

This is not the heart, this is head plus heart and belief in the squad and coach we have.

So same as @localny

Where is Moron!? You must have kidnapped him. Imposter.

Where is Moron!? You must have kidnapped him. Imposter.

No no imposter mate, I think we have the best 22 in the league right now, dont care what anyone says, as I kept saying I wanted a DM like Endo but younger, and faster. So now that we have Morton still with us I say lets go.

For the record I always back the team to win everything at the start of the season because of who we are amd history, call it foolish/romantic whatever. Back the team time now and screw the transfer talk.

 

[Mamma Mia]

Unlocking and bumping. It's a pity so few people posted, would have been interesting to reflect on.

We probably had other threads discussing season expectations, I just couldn't find it with a quick cursory search.

If anyone wants to find and link it, please feel free and I'll unlock it.

 

[Modo]

I think there's another thread.

Edit: nope

[binomial]

Is it too late to put my predictions?

 

[Frogfish]

Let's do a summary :

Most people had LFC at 1st or 2nd and all in the Top 4.
Most people had 2 of the relegated teams (bloody Blueshite spoiled my card again).
FAC nobody will get it (OK I have City but no-one wants them to win it) !
LC : 4 people had us and no-one had Newcastle.
Top Scorer : most had Haaland. Big Kudos to Tom Brown for being the only one to say Mo. !
Player of the Season : again most had Haaland. And Big Kudos again but this time to Brizz for being the only one to say Mo. !
CL : no-one came close with Us and Madrid both dropping out.
Manager of the Season : Clean Sweep! We all said Slot.

Biggest Laughs / Failures :

Me: Spurs to win LC and Everton to finally be relegated. Sigh.
Tom : I loved his relegation selection (Ev, CFC, Utd and City by points deduction) however sorry mate!
Brizz & Squiggles : Everton let them down too.
Squiggles : City v Madrid CL final.
Whaddapie : Forest to be relegated !!! The biggest whopper of the lot ! Also CL final (City vs RM).
Localny : Player of the Season - Chiesa ! and Top Scorer : Jota. One could only hope.

You'd still be wrong !
