My 2021/22 Premier League Predictions | Champion, Top 4, Relegation & Top Scorer
My 2021/22 Premier League Predictions | Champion, Top 4, Relegation & Top Scorer

Welcome back guys! 2021/22 The Premier League season is around the corner and here’s my predictions. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube Unfortunately for the new boys I think all three promoted sides will get relegated. Norwich’s squad isn’t as good as their last that won the Championship, only to finish bottom of the Premier League and to make matters worse they’ve sold their best player! Emi Buendia. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch As for Watford, they are in a similar situation to Norwich. Relegated in 2019/20, Watford have returned to the top flight with basically the same squad that was relegated and I see this season ending the same. They’ve recruited well, adding young, sellable talent for cheap with 23 year old Emmanuel Dennis and 22 year old Imran Louza the pick of the bunch for just 12 million. Watford’s hopes of survival will be pinned on last season’s top scorer Ismalia Sarr but I think a lack of creativity and Watford’s impatient board will cost them. ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon Brentford are the only ones I have some hope for. Teams that play a back 5 tend to translate well into the Premier League, with Sheffield United and Wolves prime examples in recent years. That being said they both won their respective competitions and were more complete sides than Thomas Frank’s Bees. In terms of personnel, I think Ivan Toney will definitely score goals again this season. But I’m not sure Brentford will have enough quality defensively to stay up. Moving onto the other side of the table, even if Leicester do sell Maddison to Arsenal, I don’t think there’s enough swing to cost them fifth place. Last season, Leicester coped without their number 10 and arguably were more reliant on the dynamic running of Harvey Barnes or the goalscoring of Iheanacho. They’ve also got Youri Tielemans who could adopt a more attacking position, especially with the arrival of Soumare. The Foxes have had another stellar transfer window, improving their squad and replacing Jamie Vardy with Patson Daka. Add that to their consistency and evolution under Rodgers and for me, it’s hard to see them finish outside the top five. Statman Dave Clips ➡ http://bit.ly/StatmanClips And finally let’s talk about the top 4. I think if the window shut today, anyone could win the title. Chelsea won the Champions League last season and since Tuchel’s appointment, have more expected points than anyone else in the league. Liverpool have their best defenders returning and have reinforced the position with one of the best talents in Europe. Whilst Manchester United finished 2nd last season and have massively improved their starting eleven. Unfortunately, the window isn’t shutting today and it looks like Manchester City are going to add the best goalscorer and the second best creator in the competition to their squad. With that team, City will win the league at a canter and Kane will win the golden boot, probably breaking lots of records in the process.

Kai Havertz and Timo Werner will share the role but I think they alone won’t be enough to overcome United and Liverpool over 38 games so it’s Chelsea in fourth, unless they sign Lukaku or Haaland in which case they’d be City’s closest challengers. #PremierLeague #EPL #Predictions ________________________________________________________________________ ► Artist Attribution Music By: "After The Fall" Track Name: "Pieces (Extended Version)" • ATF LinkTree - https://linktr.ee/AftertheFall • DOWNLOAD @ https://www.chilloutmedia.com/atf License: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) - Full license here: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/... • Music released by: Chill Out Records @ https://goo.gl/fh3rEJ & https://www.LoFi-HipHop.com • (C) Copyright Notice: This is FREE (Royalty Free Music) that has been publicly released by Chill Out Records - No Copyright Music (Chill Out Records LLC) for use by content creators within their own YouTube and TikTok Musical.ly videos.

How Raphaël Varane Improves Manchester United...
How Raphaël Varane Improves Manchester United...

Welcome back guys! Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign French defender Raphael Varane from Real Madrid. So let’s take a look at how Varane improves Solskjaer’s side. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube Varane is undoubtedly a world class centre back and his signing is something of a coup for Manchester United. Barcelona and Real Madrid are the pinnacle of football for most players and to leave the Spanish giants at your own personal peak says a lot about what Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is building. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch He’s arguably the perfect, experienced partner for Harry Maguire. With a decade of experience playing at the very top level, Varane could help tutor and improve Maguire’s own game, not to mention add valuable experience to a young Manchester United side (25.5 avg age). ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon At Real Madrid, Varane played most of his best games as a cover defender. His agility, recovery pace, reading of the play and tackling ability made him ideal for protecting against the counter attack - defending the wide areas for the advanced full backs and the space directly in behind when Sergio Ramos, acting as a stopper, would step out to engage the opposition. Statman Dave Clips ➡ http://bit.ly/StatmanClips I expect this to continue at Manchester United, with Varane enabling Harry Maguire to be even more aggressive in his stopper duties. This could also see United adopt a higher line out of possession to compress the space the opposition have to play in and allow Maguire to be even more effective, covering less ground before he’s able to make a challenge. A defender of Varane’s quality and pace could also inspire more confidence amongst players who don’t have defensive roles to play expansive passes, knowing that if they don't come off, Varane is well equipped to deal with the counter attack. #ManUtd #MUFC #Varane Do you think Raphael Varane completes Man Utd’s back four?

How Jadon Sancho Will Fit into Solskjaer’s Manchester United | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics
How Jadon Sancho Will Fit into Solskjaer’s Manchester United | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics

Welcome back guys! The day has arrived, Manchester United have officially signed Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube Let’s dive into how Sancho will make a difference in Solskjaer’s Man Utd setup. Jadon Sancho has been directly involved in 78 league goals over the last three seasons, the 8th most across Europe’s Top 5 Leagues and the only player 21 or younger in the top 10. Having just turned 21, Sancho has the vast majority of his career ahead of him but he’s already a world class player with room to grow even more. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch We’ve done so many videos on this channel analysing Jadon Sancho’s playing style and a playlist will be linked where you’ll be able to see his year on year evolution since his debut in 2018. In short, Sancho is a dribbling playmaker. His game centres around his acceleration, agility and dribbling ability as well as his vision and eye for a pass. This sees Sancho adopt a pass and move style where he links with teammates, playing one - two’s to get himself into dangerous positions where he can create chances or score himself. ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon Whilst he can score goals, Sancho is a creator first and he’ll bring great balance to Manchester United’s attacking lineup. In fact, since the start of his first full season, only Lionel Messi (43) has registered more assists across Europe’s Top 5 Leagues than Jadon Sancho (41) and the Barcelona legend (102) has played 10 more games in that period. All of United’s first team forwards operate at their best as goalscorers, and even Bruno Fernandes, United’s playmaker in chief, operates in a hybrid role. Sancho’s preference to link with players around him will not only improve those players but United’s tempo as a whole as Sancho will instigate quicker passing moves to create chances.

How Solskjaer Could Set Up Manchester United Next Season | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics
How Solskjaer Could Set Up Manchester United Next Season | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics

Welcome back guys! Today we’re going to be taking a look at how Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could set Man Utd up next season. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch First diving into Manchester United’s shape, I expect the 4-2-3-1 to remain but depending on the future of certain Frenchmen, this could resemble more of a single pivot - but more on that later on. First we’ll take a look at who starts in goal - I think Dean Henderson will continue as Solskjaer’s number one in the league. Henderson hasn’t really put a foot wrong since getting a run in the side from March. In the Premier League Henderson outperformed David de Gea in Expected Goals prevented, Save Percentage and passes completed per 90 but most importantly, he made more than three times as many defensive actions outside of the box than De Gea. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube Raphael Varane has been heavily linked for a move to Old Trafford and could join a steady three alongside him. Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire will all retain their starting spots. The trio were arguably United’s most consistent players last season and the loss of the captain in the run-in really highlighted how important his leadership, defensive ability and ball playing skills are to Solskjaer. Moving into midfield, Man United have been linked to another Frenchman in Eduardo Camavinga. The 18 year old wonder kid would be a fantastic addition to an exciting Manchester United side that have already signed Jadon Sancho and we could see Camavinga pair with Paul Pogba in midfield. More on Eduardo Camavinga ➡️ https://youtu.be/OskDWJpmPCE The three ahead of the midfield write themselves in the team, Jadon Sancho who instantly upgraded & solves Man Utd’s right wing issues - Bruno Fernandes who’s been world class and the key man since joining, with Marcus Rashford who’s best football has come off the left coming off another 30+ goal & assist season. Man Utd won’t be lacking at number nine either, Anthony Martial, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood are solid options that give Solskjaer different things.

3 Players Man Utd NEED to Sign to Become Premier League Champions...
3 Players Man Utd NEED to Sign to Become Premier League Champions...

Welcome back guys! Today we’ll be taking a look at three signings Man Utd have to make in the summer transfer window. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube First we’ll head to Ligue 1 - shopping at the French champions Lille for Dutch centre-half Sven Botman. Despite only turning 21 in January, Botman has the defensive positioning of a much more mature player. When he’s defending he likes to get low to the ground so he can change direction quickly and match the attacker. This also allows him to assert himself on the situation, often showing the forward where Botman wants him to go before stepping in to make a challenge. He’s an extremely composed player in all aspects of the play. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch For our final two signings, we’ll be looking at areas of the pitch Man Utd have needed to address for a very long time - targeting a right winger and defensive midfielder. - [ ] ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon Declan Rice is the obvious target for Man Utd at DM. Captaining West Ham to European football, the England international looks set to take the next step in his career and a move to Manchester United would be very appealing for the young midfielder. McTominay & Fred have done fine jobs for Man Utd in midfield, but Solskjaer’s side have lacked a genuine holder in midfield to replace Nemanja Matic and the 22 year old would be the perfect man for the job. Finally we’re looking at Jadon Sancho as we’ve done so in the past. Whether it’s in the media or between Man Utd fans - Sancho is the first name when discussing transfers for Man United. A deal that should have really happened last summer, it should be a priority for Man Utd this window and the young Borussia Dortmund winger could solve Manchester United’s long term issues at right wing. Although Sancho has largely played on the left this season, he’s more than capable of playing across the front line and build a relationship with Marcus Rashford & Mason Greenwood for years to come Statman Dave Clips ➡ http://bit.ly/StatmanClips Who do you think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Man Utd should sign in the summer?

How Man Utd Close the Gap on Man City...
How Man Utd Close the Gap on Man City...

Welcome back guys! Today we’ll be taking a look at how Man Utd close the gap on Pep Guardiola’s Man City. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube Over the past 18 months, Manchester United have taken huge strides forward. They’ve added a truly world class creator in Bruno Fernandes, Luke Shaw has massively improved his attacking output and Marcus Rashford has become a consistent and key part of United’s attack, with the forward being directly involved in 40 goals since the start of last season. Despite that, Manchester City and their millions are still ahead of Solskjaer’s men so today we’re going to take a look at how United can close the gap! ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch First let’s take a look at Man Utd becoming more unpredictable in their build up play. At the moment Solskjaer’s Manchester United build in a 3-3-1-3. I think this build up shape is fine but I’d like to see a slight tweak to see more of a 3-5-2 build up with more interchange within the structure itself. The tweaked structure alone would offer an extra option for the outside centre backs when playing out from the back and the shorter, diagonal passes are more difficult to stop. But it’d also offer more flexibility for players to interchange positions. With the current skill set of United’s players, we could see complete interchange between the likes of Bruno, Rashford and Shaw. Obviously, Fernandes could operate from anywhere on the pitch but even Rashford is incredibly versatile and has experience playing all across the line would even make him suited to a central midfield position. ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon Luke Shaw is the interesting one. He’s made huge improvements this season to the point where he’s currently the most complete left back in the Premier League and could even operate in a similar, inverted wing back role like Joao Cancelo has done for Manchester City. What is an Inverted Wing Back? João Cancelo’s Man City Role Under Pep Guardiola Explained 🎥 https://youtu.be/LFw-GH2Uibs Now onto how some new signings could fit into this. Man United could start utilising this new structure with the current setup but to make it really flourish a progressive defensive midfielder should be signed. Ideal candidates include Eduardo Camavinga, Wilfred Ndidi and Declan Rice. All 3 of these have performed destructive, shielding roles out of possession but intelligent and progressive roles in it and whilst they’d be expensive, they could slot in immediately and hold down the role for a number of years. #ManUtd #MUFC #PremierLeague Can Man Utd win the Premier League next season?

How Martin Odegaard Will Fit into Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics
How Martin Odegaard Will Fit into Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal | Starting XI, Formation & Tactics

Hey guys welcome back! Today we’ll be taking a look at Arsenal's latest signing, Martin Odegaard and how he will fit into Mikel Arteta’s side. ► SUBSCRIBE to STATMAN DAVE: http://bit.ly/StatmanDaveYoutube After an outstanding season on-loan at Real Sociedad in the 19/20 season, Norwegian international Martin Odegaard returned to his parent club Real Madrid. Although many Real Madrid fans expected Odegaard to come straight into the side and have an influence on the team this season - Zinedine Zidane had only handed the 22 year old three La Liga starts. So this loan move could be an opportunity for Odegaard to further prove himself ready to his parent club and also solve some of the issue’s Arsenal have faced going forward in the Premier League under Mikel Arteta this season. ► CHECK US OUT ON TWITCH: http://bit.ly/SMDTwitch Now let’s take a look at how Martin Odegaard could fit in at Arsenal. Throughout his career Odegaard has played in two main positions. Either on the right wing where he can look to come inside onto his stronger left foot. Or in a central, attacking midfield position. The latter is where he played the best football of his career so far for Real Sociedad, either in a 4-2-3-1 as a number 10 or a 4-3-3 as a free eight. Odegaard has the perfect skill set for a playmaker. Not only does he have the vision and passing ability to create chances for teammates, but he’s got the technical ability and composure to operate in the tightest of spaces too and he uses these to great effect in the final third. ► JOIN PATREON: https://bit.ly/StatmanPatreon After much success in a 3-4-3, Arteta has moved away from the system and towards a 4-2-3-1.In this shape Odegaard would slot in at number 10. The double pivot would free the Madrid man to receive in more dangerous positions where he can quickly look to create for teammates. Whilst this will likely be how Odegaard starts his Arsenal career, I expect a switch to incorporate two creative midfielders or free eight’s. This is the system that Pep Guardiola had his best success with in England and where Arteta learnt his trade. So it’s logical to assume that Arteta will want to build something similar at the Emirates. It also makes sense from an attacking standpoint. This season Arsenal’s biggest problem has been scoring goals and their 1.2 goals per game this season is the joint 12th best in the Premier League, comparable to the likes of Crystal Palace and Brighton (both 1.2).

5 Players Man Utd Should Sign in January 2021
5 Players Man Utd Should Sign in January 2021

Welcome back guys! Today we’ll be taking a look at 5 players Man Utd should sign in the January transfer window. Manchester United have had an outstanding start to the season in the Premier League, currently sitting three points ahead of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at the top of the table. But there’s still area’s Solskjaer could do with reinforcement in and the January transfer window could give Man United that extra push towards the Premier League title. First let’s take a look at a midfield option, a player available immediately who could transition into the side by the end of the season is Manuel Locatelli. The former AC Milan youngster has been developing his game at Sassuolo and he’s become one of the best defensive midfielders in Serie A. Operating from the left of a double pivot, Locatelli is the side’s controller and he’s often the deepest of the midfielders. He makes Sassuolo tick with his quick one and two touch play out of the back, always happy to receive even when under pressure and with his back to goal. Moving onto right back, Manchester United only really have Aaron Wan-Bissaka as a first team option and considering he’s been played non-stop since signing for United, with the only outfielder to play more minutes than Wan-Bissaka in that period being Harry Maguire, it’d be good to be able to rotate him or even bring in a player to compete for a starting position. Whilst Max Aarons has been linked recently and is an excellent talent, he’s at a similar age to Wan-Bissaka and they would both develop into the same kind of attacking full back whilst one could halt the development of the other. Signing Aarons could also prevent the likes of Ethan Laird from breaking into the first team in the future. Who I’d like Man United to go for is Mazraoui. The Ajax right back is a very technical footballer and is more of an inverted full back. With experience playing all over the pitch for the Amsterdam club, he’s become a very rounded player. Unlike Aarons, Mazrouai would be a very different full back to Wan-Bissaka. He’s basically a central midfielder in that position with great technical ability and a fantastic passing range. This season Ajax have continued with their 4-2-1-3 under Erik ten Hag and their right hand side has looked the most dangerous with Mazrouai as an inverted wing back playing behind Antony, a left footed right winger. He generally takes up an inverted position which allows Antony ahead of him to play wide and create one v one’s with the opposition full back whilst Mazrouai makes excellent supporting underlaps to either take opponents with him or receive the ball. Moving up the pitch United are always in need of young, talented attackers and Michael Olise is definitely one to watch.The 19 year old is currently the top assister in the Championship this season and would be a shrewd acquisition to add depth to Manchester United’s squad. The Championship has proven to be a breeding ground for very talented players in recent years. The likes of Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham and Reece James, all who are key components of the current Chelsea squad shone in the Championship on loan. Whilst very talented attackers learnt their craft there, I’m talking about the likes of Maddison, Buendia, Eze and Jack Grealish. And Oli-say looks like the latest to emerge from the competition. He started the season from the right flank but has played all across the line and even in Reading’s double pivot. #ManUtd #MUFC #ManchesterUnited Who do you think Man United should sign in the January transfer window?
