Goals, Guts, and Guesswork: Predicting the Premier League Season

Premier League 2024/25 – What are we expecting?

It’s that time of year again when the countdown is on for the start of the beloved Premier League, with fans around the world desperate for the heartbreak and glory of the beautiful game.

With new kits and signings rolling out left, right, and centre, it’s only right that we have our say on what we’re expecting this season, and throw in a few of our unfiltered opinions on some new shirts.

The latest Premier League Home Shirts featuring Arsenal, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest, Man City, Man Utd, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.

Front Runners

Manchester City

I think we can all agree that it would be nice for another team to win for once, but Manchester City are still probably fan favourites to win the title again. With Pep working with a team of world-class players, it’s hard for anyone to predict otherwise. 

Credit where credit is due, their kits this season are unreal.

Man City Home 2024/25 Kit

The classic blue home kit with 0161 on the collar is homage to landline phone numbers in Manchester, and the away kit design is a modern version of their 1999 kit, which pays tribute to the team that won promotion to the First Division that year. Overall, they’ve smashed these meaningful kit designs.

Arsenal

If anyone is going to beat City to the title this year, there’s a high chance it’ll be Arsenal. Over the past few years, the Gunners have put in one hell of a performance, just narrowly missing out on the last two titles. 

Arsenal’s new kits are turning heads! The home kit has wisely ditched the gold stripes (let’s be honest, there hasn’t been much to celebrate), opting for fresh blue details instead.

It’s a lovely combo with the classic red, nodding to the 90s while feeling entirely new. The third kit, after some harsh feedback last year, is a standout—unique, original, and sporting pastel colours that fans will hope to see in action. 

But it’s the away kit that truly shines, crafted with Labrum London to honour the connection between Arsenal, North London, and Africa, and pay tribute to the club’s African supporters and players.

Liverpool

Liverpool are gearing up for an intriguing season—their first without Klopp, who’s left some big shoes to fill after leading the club to incredible success.

We’ll see if it was Klopp’s magic or the team’s talent that brought them so close to Premier League glory several times since their 2020 win. Looking at their team, we’re thinking a bit of both. 

Their new home kit has retro vibes, with yellow stripes and a collar inspired by the 1982-85 shirt. While we’re fans of a retro collar, the overall design has us on the fence.

The away kit, on the other hand, is a classy number. Some might call it boring, but it’s a refreshing break from designs that try too hard—sometimes, less really is more!

The Underdogs

Aston Villa

Aston Villa fans are buzzing with excitement for the upcoming season after last year’s incredible run! Villa outspent every club this summer, and everyone’s hoping it wasn’t in vain—could they pull off a surprise victory like Leicester in 2016? 

On the kit front, Villa’s first adidas design has arrived, and it’s already an upgrade from last season’s “wet look” shirt. The home kit sticks to the usual colours, with a special ‘AV 150’ behind the neck to celebrate the club’s anniversary.

With the other kits still under wraps and release dates cutting it close, fans are eager to get their hands on them before the season kicks off!

Manchester United 

We know what you’re thinking… but hear us out—this is just a personal opinion! After a few rough seasons, Manchester United might just get it together following their FA Cup win (though, let’s be honest, that’s not quite what they’re used to aiming for). With youngsters like Garnacho on the rise, there’s plenty of hope. 

The Busby Babes-inspired home kit is a hit, bringing back some of that old-school magic.

The away kit, with its nice blue throwback to the 90s, is a winner too.

Last, but definitely not least, we absolutely love the third kit—the trefoil adidas logo, retro vibes, devil badge, and sharp colour combos, all tied together with black details, make it one of the standout kits of the season!

West Ham

The Hammers are gearing up for the new season with a strong squad that might just be underestimated. They had a great start last season, and if they can keep that momentum going, they’ll definitely be ones to watch. 

Their 60s-inspired home kit is a step up from last year’s bubble design (we didn’t love that), but is it a bit too simple? It might look more like a training top.

On the other hand, the away kit is a winner—we don’t see enough black kits, and the burgundy accents add a nice touch of personality.

The nod to Cockney heritage with St Mary-le-Bow Church is a clever touch, honouring a deep cultural connection.

And the third kit? Also better than last year, with a classy, sophisticated colour combination that fans will appreciate.

New Additions

Leicester City

Leicester City’s upcoming season is shaping up to be anything but simple, and the same could be said about their new home kit. It’s straightforward, but is it classy or just plain generic? Hard to tell when the sponsor’s logo is so huge it practically steals the show—and not in a good way!

After last season’s promotion, you’d think the new away kit would be an upgrade, but it seems we’ve taken a step back from last year’s gem. The Foxes will be hoping for a miracle season like the one almost a decade ago, but at least the kits will keep us talking!

Southampton 

Southampton’s upcoming season might be a tough one, no matter how many new players they bring in. After finishing 4th in the Championship, it’s hard to see them competing with the standard of the Premier League nowadays. 

On the bright side, their classic home kit is a definite upgrade from last year, with Puma taking over from Hummel.

But that away kit? A bit of an eyesore—more high-vis jacket than football shirt. And let’s not even start on that sponsor logo, which is as big as their ambitions but just as out of place!

Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town is stepping into the upcoming season with a home kit that doesn’t look out of place in the Premier League, featuring lovely navy trims that add a touch of class.

The away kit is just as interesting, with a jersey that showcases graphics of the stadium packed with fans, capturing the vibrant matchday atmosphere. Hopefully, the team can channel that energy into what’s sure to be a tough season ahead.

Let’s be honest, they might get relegated again, but with Kieran McKenna—who’s been attracting interest from some big clubs—at the helm, maybe The Cottagers can defy the odds and stay up after over 20 years away.

Unlucky Few

Everton 

The 2024-25 season will be a bittersweet one for Everton fans as they say goodbye to Goodison Park. After a few rocky seasons fighting to avoid the relegation zone, the club is primed for a fresh start. Whether they can keep floating above the bottom three is a different story.

Enter Castore, Everton’s new kit maker, with some stylish offerings. The home kit boasts a clean, modern design, featuring an abstract nod to Everton’s first official crest from 1920—though it might take a keen eye to spot the deconstructed EFC within the print.

They’ve really hit their stride with the away kit, though—simple yet striking in black with yellow accents that pop. It proudly showcases the simplified Everton Tower Crest, proving that even in a season of change, style remains timeless.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest fans might be holding their breath for another season, having narrowly escaped relegation two years in a row. Will they manage it again this time? Well, if the kits are anything to go by, it’s a mixed bag. 

The home kit has transformed from a basic training top to something with almost too much going on, and let’s not even start on the oversized sponsor logo.

The away kit’s pattern, which looks suspiciously like razor blades, doesn’t help either.

With these questionable designs, one might wonder if they’re a reflection of what’s to come on the pitch. And with the third kit still under wraps, who knows what’s next for Forest this season?

Now, the Premier League has proved that it can be incredibly unpredictable, so remember this is only what we’re predicting (or for some of us, hoping) will happen over the next thrilling season. Don’t hate the player, hate the game!
