With the current problem which the two clubs are having currently, they both won’t be able to make it to the top 4 because the two clubs have lots of things that they are supposed to fix, and it’s going to be a gradual process, not something they can just fix easily, so I don’t think both Manchester United and Chelsea will be able to make it to the top 4, and with Manchester United's current performance, I am even expecting them to end the season in the worst position and not expecting anything special from them this season.
I won’t just be surprised if I see Manchester United end the season in the middle of the table. With their current performance, I just have the feeling that that’s where they're going to end the season because their coach is not making any impact on the team.
Manchester United's main problem at the start of this season was that they did not have a truly productive striker and a strong defense. In 3 matches, Manchester United was only able to score 2 goals and conceded 5 goals. This statistic illustrates how weak they are compared to other teams, even Chelsea is still better if goal productivity is compared.
So far, Chelsea also doesn't have a strong defense, of course because they are as bad as Manchester United, where they have conceded 5 goals in 3 matches. Chelsea and Manchester United are not favorites to be in the top four at the end of the season, but they could improve over time and gain the best places.
Forget about Manchester united attack and defense, which part of their squad is working perfectly? Absolutely none. Starting from the head couch who makes irrelevant changes to their goal keeper who makes silly mistakes that usually lead to goals. The midfield is not left out too with their lack of coordination and constant losing of possessions. The attack is worse than any other position you can think of.
Manchester united is the easiest team to play against now in the premier League because they're very bad in every fundamentals. I'm fair enough to predict them finishing at position eight on the table. It is hard to tell which one is more better between Chelsea and Manchester united but Chelsea seems to be slightly better than United judging from the games played so far and statistics from each game.
