⚽️2022 #ALLSVENSKAN REVIEW 🇸🇪
On March 21st, I published a thread predicting the Allsvenskan & #AllsvenskanFantasy season. It's now November 6th, & the season has come to a close 💔
🔮 How did my predictions hold up? 🔮
Let's see! 👀
The 2022 #Allsvenskan Review, a thread: 🇸🇪
🔻16TH - @GIFSUNDSVAL🔵
🔮 Prediction: 16th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-2L, HIF (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Pontus Engblom
Summary: as predicted, poor recruitment cost SUN, conceding 27 goals more than any other side & taking just 2 points from 15 away fixtures.
#tillsammansärvigifsundsvall
🔻15TH - @HelsingborgsIF 🔴
🔮 Prediction: 14th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-0L, IKS (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Viljormur Davidsen
Summary: unfortunately, the strength of the defence wasn't enough to keep them afloat. The worst home record & the fewest goals scored contributed to their sink.
↕️ 14TH - @VarbergsBoISFC 🟢
🔮 Prediction: 10th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 4-1L, MAIF (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Robin Simovic
Summary: I expected Tashreeq Matthews to be a huge factor in VAR's safety after 11GI in 2021, but he & their season fell short of expectation.
#tillsammansärvibois
🛟 13TH - @dif_degerfors 🔴
🔮 Prediction: 11th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 3-0W, DIF (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Diego Campos
Summary: an impressive 11-game unbeaten run & 10-game unbeaten home run turned their season around. As predicted, Diego Campos stepped up without Edvardsen.
#DegerforsIF
🛟 12TH - @ifknorrkoping ⚪️
🔮 Prediction: 8th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 2-0L, IKS (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Jonathan Levi
Summary: a side with real reason to be disappointed, the loss of Adegbenro proving to be more than they could handle. Nyman failed to fill the gap left.
#ifknorrköping
🛟 11TH - @siriusfotboll ⚫️
🔮 Prediction: 13th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 2-0W, NOR (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Marcus Mathisen
Summary: I thought that Mitov Nilsson & Kouakou would keep IKS out the play-off, the latter meeting expectations as their top scorer (7).
#UppsalaärBlåsvart #iksirius
👌 10TH - @ifkvmo ⚪️
🔮 Prediction: 15th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 3-2W, HIF (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Marcus Antonsson
Summary: despite worries re. their recruitment, Johansson & Antonsson stepped-up in style, the latter ending the season as the league's 2nd top scorer (21).
#ifkvärnamo
👌 9TH - @MjallbyAIFs 🟡
🔮 Prediction: 12th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-2W, KFF (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Carlos Moros Gracia
Summary: although they were forced to let go of a lot of 2021's defence, MAIF signed fantastically & ended 2022 with the best away defensive record.
#mjällbyaif
👌 8TH - @IFKGoteborg 🔵
🔮 Prediction: 7th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-1D, DIF (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Gustaf Norlin
Summary: the new recruits did indeed flourish in their first full season, Berg & Wendt settling into the Allsvenskan scene throughout. Now to push on in 2023.
#ifkgbg
👌 7TH - @Malmo_FF 🔵
🔮 Prediction: 2nd
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 3-2L, IFE (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Felix Beijmo
Summary: an absolutely horrendous spell of late season form saw them drop far below expectations, the loss of Ahmedhodzic undeniably playing a major part. Work to be done.
📈 6TH - @IFElfsborg1904 🟡
🔮 Prediction: 5th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 4-4D, BKH (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Johan Larsson
Summary: have a wealth of attacking talent but need that final piece of the puzzle to push for a medal place in 2023. I'd offer to help, but they've blocked me. 😅
📈 5TH - @aikfotboll ⚫️
🔮 Prediction: 3rd
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-2L, BKH (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Nicolás Stefanelli
Summary: although the defence lived up to expectations at home (=2nd best record), a lack of consistency on their travels hindered them. A busy Summer-period awaits.
📈 4TH - @KalmarFF 🔴
🔮 Prediction: 9th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 2-0W, HAM (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Lars Sätra
Summary: a sensational season, their progress hugely helped by the loan signing of Nanasi. Their defence was formidable throughout, conceding just 7 at home.
#kalmarff
🥉 3RD - @Hammarbyfotboll ⚪️
🔮 Prediction: 4th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 3-0W, IFE (H)
⭐️ Star Man: Nahir Besara
Summary: the signings predictably helped HAM push on in 2022, Veton Berisha turning heads despite failing to set the league alight just yet. Huge potential.
#Bajen
🥈 2ND - @DIF_Fotboll ⚫️
🔮 Prediction: 1st
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 3-0L, DEG (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Magnus Eriksson
Summary: how this side haven't won the title this year is endlessly surprising to me - all the components of champions, but gelling issues have caused big upsets.
#DIF
🥇 1ST - @bkhackenofcl 🟡
🔮 Prediction: 6th
🗓️ Defining Fixture: 1-2W, AIK (a)
⭐️ Star Man: Alexander Jeremejeff
Summary: this entire squad has stepped up in a big way, Jeremejeff contributing twice as many goals (22) as he has in any season prior. Congratulations!
