⚽ Premier League 2025/2026 Discussion Thread ⚽

[Luzin]

Well Chelsea Football Club managed to defeat Paris Saint-Germain Football Club very badly in the Club World Cup match, so don't you consider that overrated performance for them? Maybe you are looking to select a team based on current transfer rumours and player acquisitions and spending, then Liverpool Football Club will definitely be ahead. Still given the potential on the field and the current physical diversity of the players, we can imagine that Chelsea Football Club certainly has the potential to do something good in the upcoming season. Chelsea Football Club has talented players who are now attracting the attention of other clubs, so they must be added to the potential, even in the coming season they will radiate brightness basically everyone found that out in them through the final match of the Club World Cup.

Of course, I think they will be one of the favorites competing with Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man City for the title. Another reason is that Maresca has made some good changes. Their progress was very noticeable last season as they finished in the top 5, and that happened after they had been experiencing poor results for a long time.
World Cup results are just statistics, as conditions in the league and the packed schedule may be very different. Remember that top EPL teams have already made significant player changes through the transfer window. So I think the new EPL season will be even more exciting.

The interesting thing is that there is still a possibility for Liverpool to sign Alexander Isak as well! 

But it depends on whether they sell Luis Díaz this summer. Bayern Munich is after him recently you know. So far they haven't made a satisfying offer for Liverpool yet.

Can you imagine Liverpool getting Isak too after Ekitiké signing? Arne Slot really wants to dominate everywhere...

It will be a very good signing for Liverpool if they can complete the signing of Isak, but I really don't see Liverpool pushing to sign him since they already signed Ekitike. They already have a good striker in him and I don't think Arne Slot will want to have unhappy players in the team, because that will definitely affect the team spirit . Signing of Isak will definitely affect Ekitike and that will make him unhappy if he doesn't get playing time. So my guess will be Isak staying with Newcastle,  probably renewing his contract and getting a big check.

Liverpool is becoming a threat to other teams in EPL they have a complete team already and the presence of Ekitike is another big team in the team that makes them completely strong but seeing Isak news as a targeted player yet again from Liverpool shows that they are planning to dominate the league like Manchester City did in the past. Slot knows how he plans to pair the two players to ensure that the presence of one doesn't affect the other player but I don't think Newcastle United will be willing to release the player unless they want to make money selling him very expensive for Liverpool.

Chelsea seem to be a much better team this season than last season. However, we still don't know how much Chelsea will be able to compete for the title. However, if Chelsea's performance is consistent, the Premier League title race will be very exciting.

Arsenal and Liverpool have spent a lot of money to strengthen their squad this season. Both have spent more than 200 million. So it is to be expected that both teams will try their best to win the title this season.

Chelsea have spent a lot of money to strengthen their attack. I don't know why the Chelsea coach only focused on strengthening the forwards despite having talents like Sterling, Mudryk, Nkunku and Felix. They should have tried to strengthen the defense and midfield

One thing I love about the EPL is that no team would dominate the league for a very long time, cause other clubs would spend heavily and strengthen their team to match your strength, few years ago I don't think any team could match Manchester City's squad but now we're now talking about Liverpool, even at that other team are still strengthening their squad too to be strong enough ahead of the new season, Y'all shouldn't be suprise if a team we least expected win the league this season, that's the Premier league for you but then I can't deny the fact that Liverpool are still the most likely to win the league.

Liverpool have been seriously busy this transfer window making good sales and good buys. Hugo Ekitike is a good player but he’s not that fantastic, I personally prefer Darwin Nunez to him. Arne slot wants strikers who can also play as makeshift wingers, they’re restocking every possible weak position in their team. Liverpool wants to be airtight for the next season, I think they’ll possibly retain their title tho both Arsenal and Manchester City have made good buys too even the likes of Chelsea who have made great improvements in their gameplay.
It’ll be an exciting better season we’ll witness.

Enzo Maresca success make Chelsea should including for premier league tittle race after winning FIFA Club World Cup, significant progress of Chelsea performance since appointing Enzo Maresca as manager and next season current activities transfer have put four team from Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal are favorite team for becoming the champion.
Several EPL teams already signed top player and billion euro spending out to sign new recruitment, quite competitive for winning trophy next season and Liverpool have got several rival team. Last season only have Arsenal as the competitor team but this season have two top candidate team from Chelsea and Man City.

[AirtelBuzz]

This is very good news and congratulations from me too. I like Liverpool and am impressed by their performance. I don't think anything more of them. If they win the title it is acceptable to me. Even if they don't win, I will advise them to improve their performance. This will increase Liverpool performance and strength which will make them a better team. While they have quite a few good players, they consider themselves an expensive team.

I myself want him to score the same number but it is better that he improves his performance after which he will automatically get the number according to his hard work and performance and he will also be seen to be successful with it. If that is the case then I really wish that he actually scores the same number because it is the ability in his performance that makes him deserve this number. This match leads to a lot of interest because there will be a tough competition between the two and on the other hand the performance of this player will also be seen.

Liverpool Football Club may be going through a very busy time in terms of signing good players because I think they are keeping the team pretty high before defending the title. In fact they have agreed to all the personal terms to sign the world-class star, we are currently seeing a player at the top of transfer speculation largely because of him, who has enabled the Swedes to field a strong team, he is even currently being praised by clubs around the world. It was undoubtedly worth watching as Newcastle Football Club of England won the Carabao Cup and to my knowledge Alexander Isak was the most admired player in that tournament.

A team that wants to perform well in the league would be everything possible to meet their target as for Liverpool, they have a trophy to defend and they're also boosting their depth to be strong enough to perform well in the Champions League. Last season they dominated the EPL well but couldn't do same in the Champions League that's why they need more recruitments.

Liverpool's chance to sign Isaak is so big. They get acceptance from the player. They also got an offer from Bayern for Diaz, but stll less than what they expected. However, it means they can easily sell Diaz to Bayern. The only thing that prevent them to sign Isaak is that Newcastle's approval.
We know Newcastle ain't a poor club. So it's getting harder because they're not in the need of money. Nevertheless, i've heard Newcastle is pursuing Sesko from RB. It seems a signal if they can release Isaak.

I think Isaak's move to Liverpool will happen soon.

[Volgastallion]

I can not wait for the start of this season on Premier League.

Is gonna be a very good one, and for the first time in a lot of years despite the Liverpool favoritism we dont have a clear winner, the other years before the fall of them we always have Manchester City at the main contender and wanting a miracle from other team to cut them off, but this year is diferent.

Liverpool desire to defend their title is very strong, which is why they are hunting for high quality players this time. Their target is not only the Premier League but also the UCL competition. Judging by the current strength of the team, they certainly want high targets.
I've heard Isak is quite open about Liverpool. The problem is that Newcastle is strong enough to hold on to the player. This might be a difficult deal for Liverpool because Newcastle is not a poor club but I think Ekitike presence is enough to replace Isak.

That is why the league is interesting to watch every season because every year they have new club that perform more better, and try there best the achieve the league title. Liverpool are doing a very good sighing and that as show that Liverpool can still dominate the EPL next season and win the league title as how Manchester City are used to in several seasons. He will be very difficult is Newcastle will really release isak for Liverpool this season because they are doing there best to try to renew is contract with the team, and if they can increase is salary am sure he can probably renew is contract with the club this season. Let see how the negotiations will ends before the season start next month. If Liverpool get the opportunity to achieve isak I will say they will be the best team next season, because they will be more stronger to face any club in all competitions.

How are the mighty falling? Manchester City now have to share the odds with Liverpool and other elite competitors because they've fallen from the very top and this is not a good thing for them definitely not now they've faced more prominent oppositions. Pep Guardiola will always make sure he's having a best season but do you think we can say it out loud now? Nope because the Citizens had a poor season and this have claimed the good reputation of the club. Liverpool is next in line after Manchester City followed by Arsenal and Chelsea. We're simply looking at the fierce oppositions of roughly teams that wouldn't give up so easily.

Congratulations to all Liverpool club and fans, on Wednesday Liverpool was able to announced the signing of French striker Hugo Ekitike to replace the position of our lovely player Diogo jota  that Liverpool lost in a motor accident and the memories of Diogo jota can never be forgotten in a hurry by Liverpool players,managers and fans because Diogo jota kept a good records.

After the complete medical of Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool have now confirmed that Hugo Ekitike will wear the no,54 during the current pre season and while his permanent shirt number to be confirmed soon but i know that Hugo Ekitike will be eyeing the no.9 shirt since he signed as a striker and his pre season friendly match status has be confirmed by the Liverpool managers, while all the fans are waiting to see the performance of Hugo Ekitike in his first pre season friendly match on Saturday against Ac Milan club.

Very good, currently Liverpool performance is very good, coupled with the arrival of new player Hugo Ekitike further strengthens the team, losing Diogo Jota is certainly a hard blow both for the team and for the fans, no one expected to lose a player who has contributed greatly to the club, he will always be remembered forever. For Ekitike, hopefully he can quickly adapt to Liverpool style of play and hopefully make a positive contribution in order to help win trophies in the upcoming season.

Jota lost was a hard lost to football and his bro also.
Liverpool are doing well strengthening their squad and I'm really curious to see how these players perform especially after their big money move. Ekitike stat makes his fee questionable but it's football in the current age as ironic as it seems, let's see how well he can adapt and how far they can go this season.

I like the way that Liverpool has been serious about signing good quality players to replace the vacuum that was created by the death of Diogo jota Ekitike is one good striker that can settle down well and be a force to reckon with Liverpool attack is going to be one of the fearsome in the premier League come next season

The case of Manchester City is not giving me worries at all because I'm very sure that it's only a matter of time before we are going to bounce back. There is always a time like this. We should also look at when Manchester City was a top-notch club that was feared by every other club, but now, just because of the imbalance that they are going through, everyone thinks it's all over for Manchester City. And even by now I am sure that Pep is cooking this season because when it comes to Pep, they are doing everything possible. to get back on his feet because this last season was a very rough one for Pep because even the divorce case must have affected him, so this season should be like a new beginning for him.

Seriously, with the players Liverpool is signing, they are really ready for next season. With their current squad now, it will be difficult for any team to beat them easily. It is very possible for Liverpool to defend their Premier League title this season again.even with these new signings, I believe they are also aiming to win the Champions League this season. However, I won't say too much just yet, because sometimes the players we expect to perform well don't, and those who are underestimated end up surprising everyone.so, it’s better to wait and see how Liverpool performs in their first few Premier League matches. But honestly, I’m expecting positive results from these new signings. I’m looking forward to great contributions that will help Liverpool win trophies.

Yes it is true that when Manchester City were the top club other clubs were afraid of him but I personally believe that this club has been going through an imbalance ever since the Citizens did not add new signings Cole Palmer and Julian Alvarez. Judging by the current trajectory of this club, it can be said that they are not reaching out to world-class players in a timely manner like other clubs. They may have overlooked Cole Palmer at one point, but he is currently doing extremely well with Chelsea Football Club and has managed to win the Club World Cup trophy there so I think Pep Guardiola is making a mistake in recognizing the legend at the moment because Manchester City are not even looking at players in the summer transfer market right now.

[Felicity_Tide]

What other interpretation or meaning do you think this is apart from him leaving the club? He said he wants to explore, where hasn't he explored in the Newcastle that you think it's not an exit his talking about, or it's another position you think he wants to play for Newcastle?. It's very simple man, Isak wants out of Newcastle and right now Newcastle is looking out for his replacement and they have even contacted Sesko of Leipzig and the club is willing to sell him. Today both Newcastle management and Sesko are going to have a meeting to discuss personal terms.

I saw the news on Fabrizio's page a while ago, and no other thing could possibly come to my mind except him wanting a move at this point. I knew a day like this will come, and it came sooner than I expected. Arsenal has been on the Isak deal for sometime now, until several clubs started showing interest. I remembered Newcastle placing a price of £120M during the January transfer window, just to scare Arsenal away, and now Liverpool proved that the £120M was never a big deal, which I think motivated Isak for an exit.

As it stands, Newcastle are currently exploring the case of Sesko, which it think they will likely get for €100M, which is far less than £100M. I'm not sure if Liverpool still has what it takes to get Isak, after spending on their new forward recently. But if they have, then they should go for him.
