Liverpool still haven't found the right person to fill the gap left by Mane. Nunez, who is plotted as a player in that position, has not been able to make many major contributions. But nunez in the match against Everton he was able to contribute an Assist for Salah goal and that was the best Assist he did. Even so, he still has difficulties in finishing where in the last 6 matches Nunez has not scored a goal.

for everton the defeat to liverpool made them fail to get out of the relegation zone. dyche again failed in this match to get points and he will try hard for the next match to be able to present a victory against Aston villa at the Goodison park stadium.

If Klopp is not responsible for Liverpool's poor performance, who is responsible? Liverpool management has prepared a huge amount of funds to bring new talented players into the team. Klopp added several players to the squad but Liverpool's performance did not improve. Liverpool's performance has deteriorated day by day. I would say Klopp's poor match tactics have weakened the bond between Liverpool's players. If Klopp is not able to strengthen the bonding between the players then Liverpool should not expect a better performance.

It seems like Chelsea's search of a goalkeeper will never end. 

Because this time there are rumours like they are interested in the Brentford goalkeeper David Raya. He has played in 23 games in total so far and conceded 30 goals. 8 of these games were clean sheets for him. This is pretty good to me considering the team he plays for. However Chelsea still have contracts with Mendy and Kepa both for two more years now. I wonder what Potter is thinking about this situation. We don't even know if this is his idea. I don't think Chelsea's main problem is a goalkeeper now. They should focus on weak spots in the team first by creating some strategies for them.

I wonder if this was originally a "hoax" or did they really recover ahead of time? If this is a trick, then it is very stupid, since Bavaria is unlikely to be impressed. Since I support Bayern, I will be glad to see Messi on the field and Mbappe on the bench 
It's funny that if the first pair can be called a battle of leaders, then the second is a battle of losers. But I think Milan should win at home.

It will be difficult for Senegal to win the next AFCON. Personally I feel if Victor Osimhen can remain in form, he can really a big influence to the super eagles. Currently Victor Osimhen is world class and currently on the same level with the likes of Halaand, Rashford and even Mbappe, but I still cannot wrap my head around why the Media isn't selling Victor Osimhen who has scored in almost every game he has played for Napoli and is currently their most valuable player. If his form continues, he can be the differences for the super eagles.

Barcelona Vs Manchester United I think Barcelona is the Favourite, because based on current form and position on the league table Barcelona is better than Manchester United, and Barcelona are also playing at home giving them the home advantage, so Barcelona is by far the favourites in this very fixture,
And when you check their head to head in camp nou you will see that they are by far favourites, but Manchester United have what it takes to cause an upset on the night and get a result they will take to old Trafford and capitalize on in the revise fixture, even if the compare the quality of players Barcelona have compared to man united Barcelona still have the advantage over man united.

In this season I think the fight for the Bundesliga title will be more interesting than the previous season, because up to the 20th match that has been played by the Bundesliga team it is clear that the first and second and third places are quite close in points. I think Bayern are still a strong candidate but Dortmund are secretly following them in the standings table.

leverkusen who performed well last season by closing the season in 3rd place. now in this season leverkusen seems to have lost its best form because up to the 20th match of the season this season leverkusen still has difficulty competing in the top 4 places. I think they have to change their game in every upcoming match because there are still many games left to improve their form.

I think it was a shocking ending as Algeria was defeated by senegal and although the game ended in a penalty shootout and Algeria lost, still I don't blame them as penalty aren't the best well to judge a team's capabilities. It's a luck based exercise with few skills coming to play. A team could play better than yours in all aspects and another team can just be lucky with the penalty shootout. Big congratulations to Senegal though for winning the tournament and they do deserve it also congrats to Madagascar for taking third.

Senegal has just showed their dominance in Africa football by winning both continent's senior men competitions but I was quite surprised they didn't take this same spirit to the world cup stage to represent us properly. Now it's safe to say the best footballing nation in Africa is Senegal and it's a well deserved accomplishments. Let see what they'll do in the next AFCON coming up.

There are two games on Tuesday, but everyone is focused on the game between PSG and Bayern Munich. Actually, I'm going to do like everybody else and watch this match. PSG have too many injured players. Also, we read a lot of news that there are some minor disagreements within the team. They will continue to be champions in the French league, but I do not think it will be easy for them to advance further in this arena. I think it's hard to talk about the result of the first match, but I think Bayern are the favorites of the tour.

With the convincing win against Aston Villa, Man City are only 3 points behind Arsenal although Arsenal have a game in hand. This is the kind of pressure I would have loved Arsenal to avoid. We all know how Man City can get at this point of the season. They can even get up to 15 games winning streak when they are in that mode. Topping with the fact that Pep is angry at the league because he feels there are direct attacks against them.

I still have a lot of faith in Arsenal and I believe they can win this. The season is still long and anything can happen but Arsenal's chances of winning the league just got smaller. If Man City wins their next fixture which is against Arsenal and goes top of the table then that's a wrap because nothing is bringing them down at that point.

Sunday's transfer gossip:

Liverpool may be willing to sell 'superstar' players, including Egypt forward Mohamed Salah, 30, this summer. Salah has almost become an icon and legend of the club all these years and it is somewhat unexpected that he will leave the club. Is it a good decision by the club?

Currently Manchester United really need the presence of a quality striker in their squad, the arrival of Wout Weghorst has not made Ten Hag feel satisfied because he was only on loan for half a season at Old Trafford. According to reports circulating, Manchester United want to bring Osimhen to Old Trafford, but Napoli will not easily let go of one of their deadly strikers.

Apart from that, Harry Kane has also been on Manchester United radar, but Manchester United has a heavyweight competitor, namely Bayern Munich. Apart from that, Tottenham may also be reluctant to let Kane go to one of their rival clubs. Manchester United have included the name Tammy Abraham on their shopping list to strengthen their front line. To bring in Abraham, Manchester United must prepare a certain amount of money because he is still under contract with Roma until 2026.

Sean Dyche is a really unlucky manager. Because his first match with Everton was against Arsenal home and this time they are going to play against Liverpool in Anfield. However Everton still managed to surprise us. One goal was enough for the win despite leaving the ball to Arsenal players mostly. He is an expert in such matches with small teams as well of course. He managed teams like Burnley and Watford you know. He played such matches many times before.

Hence it would be for the benefit of Liverpool to be careful here. They already lost to Wolves by a shocking score. This must have been a lesson for them hopefully.

Manchester United may pay €100m for the Harry Kane transfer, but they may not be able to make the same money from the next sale. I don't think they would spend that much on Harry Kane. I agree with you on this. If they spend this amount of money on young football players, they will make a better decision. Also, Leao can be added next to Osimhen and Kudus. He is also a very talented football player. Also, if I'm not mistaken, his contract would expire this season. I think he is the best option for Manchester United.

There is a really interesting rumour going around these days.

PSG are speculated to be interested in bringing Pep Guardiola to the team in case he decides to leave Manchester City. If he really leaves then this would be a huge opportunity for PSG actually. It is really hard to find solid managers like Guardiola these days. He has only the Champions League title as a target to achieve for Manchester City now. If he achieves it in this season then maybe he might really think seriously upon this action. I remember one time he seemed like he would think of leaving the team in the future.

If he signs for PSG then they would need to enter a revolution phase. Because Guardiola has a different system and he would like to see the players who can be useful in that.

After Kylian Mbappe who had to be absent due to injury in the match against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the UCL playoffs, now it's Lionel Messi's turn to be doubtful for that match due to a hamstring injury against Marseille in the Coupe de France yesterday. It seems that this is bad news for all PSG supporters and of course the PSG squad will not appear at full strength against Bayern Munich in the first leg later. Galtier must be very dizzy watching his players get injured one by one and there seems to be no doubt that Bayern Munich's victory in the first leg is in sight.

Klopp's mistake is why Liverpool's performance is poor now. Before a player can be sold, his replacement must be taken into the team. Klopp sold an essential player like Sadio Mane without leaving a replacement. This is a sign of ignorance. We don't expect such stupid decisions from an experienced coach like Klopp. Also, Liverpool's performance did not improve even though Nunez was brought in as Mane's replacement. There are plenty of star players in the Liverpool squad. But only Mohamed Salah is an experienced striker or finisher. Klopp could now bring in an experienced midfielder to replace Sadio Mane.

I won't recommend Aubameyang going to MLS, he doesn't have the ability to stay relevant if he goes over there unless he's ready to retire and that would be very disappointing considering how promising his career was just few months back. I still don't understand why he left Barcelona that he fitted in properly. Even though Barcelona were prioritizing Luwadusaksi over him, still he would had stayed and his competition with Luwadusaksi would had kept him relevant.

Him returning to the premier league was just like the same mistakes Ronaldo made returning back to the premier league. Both stars would had had a better career staying in the La Liga side, their style of football is less physical and direct and more entertaining to watch. I think Aubameyang should just stay at Chelsea and try to fight for his position until he gets a better offer probably form a top league in Europe and possible, he should return back to the La Liga to finish what he started over there.

The latest rumors come from Atletico Madrid who are interested in signing Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina in the summer transfer market. We know that Amrabat's performance was quite impressive when he defended Morocco at the 2022 world cup and he also played an important role in bringing Morocco to the semifinals. Diego Simione seems to need his services as a central midfielder to strengthen Atletico Madrid next season and it looks like if he accepts Atletico's offer it will make his career shine even more.

Chelsea now have the likes of Reece James and Chilwel back from injuries. Felix is also back from suspension so he should be available for this game. Let see how Chelsea perform against West Ham tomorrow to determine how ready they're for the champion league game, I understand this are two different tournaments but it could give us some idea on what we should be expecting from Chelsea in the game against Dortmund. I think Chelsea are the side under more pressure due to their January spending and they're out of all other cup competition meaning if they should depart from this as well, then the media will come for them and such negative attention could affect the rest of their season.

It's that time of the season when Graham Potter has to show the world that he's the right man for the Chelsea coaching job because if he gets his selection wrong this time around and plays someone like Havertz upfront when we have the new signings that are yet to be utilized like Fofana then he has to be joking as he doesn't understand his job. Even me that I'm not a manager understand that Havertz plays better as a second striker and not the main target.

I'm really looking forward to the Merseyside derby this time which will be the Liverpool v Everton match, to be honest even though Everton is playing away but I expect Everon to win. Maybe on paper it is an impossible result for Everton to beat Liverpool at Anfield and in fact, the odds factor also shows that Liverpool are still projected to win with odds of 1.50 : 6.00.

But because in the previous match Liverpool lost heavily by Wolves with a score of 3-0, and Everton managed to beat Arsenal with a score of 1-0. Therefore, because Everton is also struggling to get out of the relegation zone and Liverpool must prepare the team better for the Champions League match against Real Madrid.

So I think, Liverpool have a very difficult pressure in this match and maybe Everton will be able to use it to beat Liverpool and get out of the relegation zone.
