Leverkusen is making full efforts to maintain existing interventions from various European teams who are interested in their wing-back, Jeremie Frimpong, this January. Leverkusen confirmed that they would not sell Jeremie Frimpong this January and that any European team who wanted him would have to wait until June next summer to trigger his release clause of 40 million euros.

I think this fee is still quite reasonable and the elite European teams don't seem to mind spending quite a lot of money to be able to secure the services of one of Leverkusen's key players. Jeremie Frimpong's performance since last season has been very impressive and it is not surprising that he is now being targeted by various European teams. I'm curious about where he will continue his career after closing this season with Leverkusen.

It's terrible stats from sevilla. The club was owning the ball even often than bilbao but it's only making two goal attempts. It seems sevilla will be trapping at the current position for years. The club needs to rebuild its financial first after it was paying a huge debt.
The new coach was not giving a good impact to the sevilla as it was also going out from UCL earlier. I can't even believe how the financial problem was destroying the club like makes it back to be a mediocre club again.

Im putting all of my respects toward mendilibar since he was able helping sevilla to get the europa league this season. I believe that if sevilla would not get it without him but the management was sacking him too early without even gave him the second chance to play. Im not even satisfied with the stats owned by sevilla and it must admit that if bilbao is far stronger than sevilla. The nuance is sevilla likes a mediocre team this time. im not mocking sevilla but just said bsaed on what i have seen from the result of previous matches. Sevilla is shit now and it has no chance anymore to get back to the what it used to be.

It takes years for sevilla to rebuild the club to be the same like before sevilla was putting all of its key players for sale. Glad to see bilbao has managed to get three points from its opponent.
The club is not wasting opportunity to score two goals against sevilla even though there were many chances were missed.

Yes I mean the Bernabeu is literally where he belongs. They fit together very well, the club and him. He is a gentleman and a great coach, a great personality and Real Madrid is the most recognized club in the world. So there is no disagreement about that. I wonder what he would do in 2026 if everything is looking great and going well. I believe someone like him will have a hard time to once and for all say goodbye to soccer. it is really his life although he is one of the calmest coaches I have ever seen. The most you can see from him is when he is showing his fist out of joy. But he isn't screaming or escalating. Great coach and I hope we'll see him a few more years.

There is no doubt that Kane was the right choice for Bayern in yesterday's purchase. And Kane's decision to go to Bayern is also a very right decision, because here, Kane can really play optimally very well, become the top scorer and keep Bayern quite strong. He always contributes goals in most of his matches. What is currently a challenge is how he strengthens his club even more so that he can take over first place, because after all, he also definitely wants this, namely to become the Bundesliga winner. Not only Kane but the whole of Bayern Munich certainly wants this, especially at the moment, their toughest opponent is Leverkusen, which incidentally is very on fire. This must be quite a challenge.

AC Milan once again succeeded in continuing their winning trend, but in this match they played in the Italian Cup where Pioli squad was able to win this match with a score of 4-2. Cagliari could not offer any resistance because AC milan really controlled the game from the first half until they were able to seal victory in today match. This victory makes AC milan advance to the quarter-finals and they will wait for the opponents they will face in the quarter-finals.

In today match, Leao was also able to get his name on the scoreboard because he contributed a goal in the final minutes of the match. Even in this match, Pioli did not field their core squad because he entrusted the reserve players to be able to take advantage of the opportunity to show their quality and on the front line, Jovic was the focus of AC Milan in this match, where Jovic also contributed two goals in this match.

Brighton was performing well than West Ham and they even dominate the game since the beginning of first half it proven from their game statistics that Brighton has 69% ball possession and 22 total of shots but i have to says West Ham was lucky because their goalkeeper Areola has displaying fantastic performance and during this match he make some of fantastic save which makes West Ham defensive lines is still secured until at the end of the match so in my opinion Areola is deserved to called as man of the match and as a host this result indeed not really satisfied to West Ham because they were targetting win result but at least they can avoiding to lose

I think Arsenal need a finishing striker. Guirassy can be a good alternative to these names. He is also a quality striker. It's showing its best performance this year. Of course, I think that if the conditions arise, Mbappe or Osimhen should definitely be added to the team because Arsenal now wants to get their efforts. They have to spend money on this.

From the very beginning of the season, Napoli, Ac Milan, Napoli, Inter Milan and Juventus have been the hot favorites for the league. Ac Milan did great but dropped down after some issues, they still be struggling though. It's just the consistentcy of both Juventus and Inter Milan so far. They have made the league lively. Inter Milan dropped points against Genoa and Juventus took good use of the chances they had to narrow the gap.

Inter Milan has a good coach and he'll be able to lead them until the end of the season. My major concern is for Napoli, how are they this bad? 8th Position? Shit sucks.

Coaching Bayer Leverkusen was the start of his career and the beginning of his success as a coach, staying at Bayer Leverkusen was the best choice for him, especially as his team is currently in its best performance. Xabi Alonso's success in building Leverkusen has received the attention of several other teams who want to use his services. Alonso must be able to maintain his loyalty with Leverkusen for his own good, he must continue to stay there to enjoy the results of his hard work so far by winning several prestigious titles.

It is true that this will be a very important match for Liverpool this season. Because if they manage to get 3 points in this match then this will widen the point difference between Liverpool and the other teams who are right behind them. Currently Aston Villa even has the same number of points as Liverpool. And yes, they have the potential to take 1st place in a few weeks if Liverpool are not able to maintain their distance properly. And to maintain the goal difference, beating Newcastle is something that Liverpool must succeed in doing.

Statistically and historically, Liverpool is clearly the favorite. You can see the head to head history between Liverpool vs Newcastle in the last 5 matches. And yes the results are amazing. Namely, Liverpool managed to win their last 5 matches against Newcastle. Even though we know that last season Liverpool slumped. But it turns out that last season Liverpool were able to win against Newcastle. And Liverpool's current condition is much better than last season so Liverpool's chances of winning are truly credible.

No one can currently ignore any team for the win with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich having edge, but all others are also at their best and having spot into round of 16 after winning their matches into group stage which is never been easy for any team most of the peoples are talking about just Real Madrid and Bayern Munich due to their strength and consistency, but this is never been guaranteed for the win here in this event with any underdog can also go through for the win.

Even I also agreed if these both not faced each other in quarterfinal or semifinal then surely having good chance for the last two, but few other teams are also able to do this while they are also consistent and good with we can't give them statement of strongest, but these are underdogs and capable of writing history with their performance in this season.

I was actually a little surprised to see that he has extended his contract. Because I thought he was going to Brazil as the coach. But I guess he thinks he still has a lot to gain with Real Madrid. That's why he has extended his contract till 2026. Now I think Real Madrid is going to have a good and successful next couple of years as well. I also wonder if he will be able to bring in Mbappe into the squad. If he does, it is definitely going to be insane. Let's see what kind of squad he builds in the next couple of years. Expecting at least one champion's trophy as long as he is here.a

Arsenal memes I was watching all over the Instagram fun pages and I thought what is funny with Arsenal this year as they are in a good form.Only now I saw the result of the games as I was celebrating New Year and they were right as Arsenal has lost against Fulham.I can understand losing against a Fulham that was doing great before but in fact they lost 3-0 in the last game I think or something similar,they were not in a good form and now Arsenal is the meme of the end of the year.

Tottenham just did their homework and won their game against a Bournemouth which was in a great shape having won most of their games recently and only today they were stopped.

Xabi Alonso without doubt was earlier rumored to be the young manager that'll be replacing Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti when he eventually leave the Santiago Bernabeu club next summer but just few days ago, the Italian manager Ancelotti extended his contract with Real Madrid to 2026 to which. His contract extension has put to rest any news of any purported departure from the club.

That being said, I don't think it changes the fact that Xabi Alonso is a great manager that's capable of managing any top European club. Alonso I believe will prefer staying at Bayer Leverkusen beyond next summer than managing an average club anywhere in Europe.

The current situation is very confusing. On one hand, Real Madrid needs a number 9 but they are performing well without them. On other hand, despite these rumors, I don't think Real Madrid would sign Mbappe after he kind of betrayed Real Madrid a few years ago and signed a deal with PSG. Everyone was thinking that Real Madrid got him but he said otherwise. It makes everything confusing.

Real Madrid are doing well without a number 9 right now. Joselu is doing kind of good but he is not a world class player after all. The rumors are not strong either about Mbappe coming to Real Madrid. Endrick Felipe won't be coming this season as far as I know. Things are getting very interesting and I will be watching every moment of it.

Currently Juventus will only compete in the Italian Cup which is sometimes not too interested in big clubs and Serie A which of course this will slightly save their strength when compared to some other big clubs who are still in the Champions League and Europa League competitions.
It's just that even though it's like that and they continue to win but honestly I still see something lacking for them, especially in attack.

Currently their attack and goal productivity is a little disturbed and it is evident when they still have difficulty scoring goals in a match. Problems like this must be resolved by Juventus because if they are really serious about the Scudetto then they must be even better, especially for their current attack line.

Very bad way to end the year Arsenal. In fourth position and have played one game more than Manchester City and Liverpool who are in first place. Their next game will not be any easier, it will be against crystal Palace, and having lost in two games in a row, that game will be a must win game for them if they are to remain within the race for the championship. If Arsenal players take the hard lesson from these two defeats and make sure that those are their last defeats this season, they can still win the premier league as they desire.

I have absolutely no doubt that Juventus Turin regrets to not be in the situation to be thinking about other competitions or do you think that the players sit at home, watch their fellow competitors play in the Champions League and be happy about it? Come on not really. All of them want to play in the Champions League and the worst that can happen to these stars is when they don't qualify for whatever reason there was. In this case it was a penalty, but they certainly don't enjoy to miss out on playing those big games in their career.

And it turns out our predictions were wrong. ha ha ha I was really surprised when I saw the final result of Arsenal vs West Ham 0 - 2. Arsenal lost. Yes, but this is the result. Arsenal are good at playing but bad at goal execution. It's quite a disappointing result. This time, they must completely lose the point.

And today, they will compete against Fullham. Don't let them make the same mistake, namely only winning in ball possession but not executing the goal. Arsenal must do it this time. If not, their position will be increasingly threatened and the points will be further away. Currently the top positions in the EPL are very competitive so they really have to be careful.

Referring to the Roma versus Napoli match, the victory of Jose Mourinho's squad did not escape two Napoli players who were given red cards. it would be outrageous if Roma couldn't beat Napoli with 10 players. currently Roma is playing their match at Juventus headquarters, the temporary victory for Juventus with a score of 1-0. plus, this fight will end soon. Roma's performance was not much better, especially since Jose Mourinho did not have his mainstay pattern for his team's squad. currently, Roma is ranked 7th in the Serie A standings.

Meanwhile, Feyenoord is performing quite well in its domestic league, ranking 2nd. even though they are quite far apart from PSV who are at the top of the Eredivisie standings. if we refer to player depth, of course Roma is slightly better than Feyenoord. but that doesn't mean Arne Slot's squad will let his team fall to Roma at De Kuip, Feyenoord's headquarters. at least this team from the Eredivisie league cannot be underestimated. moreover, they played as the home team in the first leg. if the scenario is that Roma will tend to play defensively in the next match, Arne Slot's squad will take advantage of this to get maximum points and even work hard to score lots of goals. and if we refer to what sports betting bookies offer from the match between these two teams, Feyenoord is superior to AS Roma. even though it is temporary, at least the home team has a chance to overthrow Roma in the first leg. well, if this match is held and the odds don't change. so I will speculate to choose the home team in this playoff round.
