Chelsea - Liverpool is going to be a pretty interesting matchup on the first week of the new season already. It is pretty hard to predict which side would come out on top here. It is more like a tie game to me for now. Chelsea were much worse last season maybe but I hope not to see them the same this season too.
I believe Pochettino will do a better start for Chelsea. But still it is really difficult for them to win this game. Liverpool have made good progress in the recent rimes of last season. If they maintain that they wouldn't lose here easily. I expect a draw at the end and both teams to score as well.
This game is very hard to predict because of some reason we know. Chelsea is a totally new team and we don't have much information about them especially because using a new coach and new players also we are in the first week of the premier league which means we don't have much information about the situation of the teams in the new season.
The rates are also very close and I will pass this game because that's not safe enough.


Neither team may be fully prepared for the league. An important name has been injured in Chelsea, which is made up of new players. In the absence of Nkunku, offensive organizations may be weaker. They also sold Kai Havertz to Arsenal and lost some more power. Although it sounds like Liverpool close to a win, it's not worth the risk to bet.

Liverpool and Chelsea faced tough opponents in the opening match of the season. It is difficult to predict which team will win. However, both the teams have tried to build a strong squad. Both the teams have made several changes within the squad.
But in this match I will bet Liverpool to win. Even though it's Chelsea's home match, I consider Liverpool favourites. In this match, Chelsea are not getting two important players in their squad, Nkunku and Fofana. Besides, I don't see any good performance from Chelsea in friendly matches. They could not win against Newcastle and Dortmund. Both the matches were drawn. The overall condition of the Chelsea team is still not stable. For these reasons, I consider Liverpool as the favorite.

In my opinion, Napoli made some totally suicidal moves, arguing with a good coach who led you to victory, making key players leave who by now knew the schemes by heart and who knew how to fit well into the team: I am skeptical about the performances.
Napoli has an important pool of players right now. Many of the players are confident that they won Serie A last year. Of course, it would have been better if they had not been eliminated by Milan in UCL, but even their performance in the league was amazing for them. Therefore, they will definitely be affected by the change of coach, but I hope it will not have a big impact.
after the season It's understandable to have doubts about Napolis performance. Growth requires embracing change. In order to progress they need to learn how to adjust to dynamics. Although its challenging when a key coach departs Napoli can still find a replacement. We don't know the impact Garcia will have yet. There is always room, for improvement. As fans we must embrace the positives. Practice patience during times of change. Lets hope Napolis determination shines brightly this summer.

Personally I don't think the Napoli team will be favorite for the title next season. I am not saying that napoli team is weak. But in the last season Napoli was very stable. The team played consistently well. The team performed well with Luciano Spalletti. They have been able to perform well in Serie A throughout the season. Napoli have lost their experienced coach. There have also been several changes to Napoli's squad. We don't know yet if the coach garcia will be able to stabilize this team. For these reasons I do not consider the napoli team to be the favorite for the next season's title. Even if they qualify for the Champions League, it will be very difficult for Napoli to win the title.

Looks like Dhawan will be retiring soon after the upcoming Ireland series. He truly deserved more opportunities when compared to Rohit etc. Also, it seems that Iyer and Rahul will be returning soon too.

Some sources stated that Bumrah will be returning too, but I am not sure about that considering his fitness issues.
Is Shikhar Dhawan really playing against Ireland?

Didn't check the squad or any announcement but it would be pretty dumb from the BCCI if they include him after keeping him out for like 2 years, it would send a mixed message to youngsters and seniors which is not good in the longer run.

I think BCCI will keep their current squad unchanged against Ireland. Because this squad can be the future squad of India. And these players are being given chances against relatively weaker teams to gain experience. Indian batsmen did not play well against West Indies. They suddenly performed well in 2/1 matches. But they do not have consistency of performance. This is why BCCI is likely to give more opportunities to these players. Ireland are relatively weak opponents. Indian youngsters have the potential to perform well against Ireland. I have not seen news that Shikhar Dhawan will back in this squad.

I think Inzaghi is a successful manager. He took Inter to the UCL final last year and played a very good final game. Even though he didn't get what he wanted in the league, he became a coach that left a mark in UCL. I think he is a coach who has the ability to work at Inter for many more years.
Simone Inzaghi doing good job in last two years and his success rate is also impressive which helps Inter Milan having good position in last season with most chances now in this season they are going to fight for the title as well with few offers are also for him with better options, but now this crucial season is going to have good impact on his career and relationship with Inter Milan if he is able to have improved results in this season then most chances he will be going to stay here for more time and his contract is surely going to extend.
Currently, they are fixing few issues which hurt them badly in last season, and they were not able to compete with Manchester City in Champions League final as well, but hopefully now they will learn from their mistake and will do better for the positive end of this season.

Simone Inzaghi did quite well last season. Although Inter Milan's performance in Serie A is not good, I am satisfied with Inter Milan's performance in the Champions League. Consistently performing well in two competitive venues like the Champions League and Serie A is very difficult. With Napoli's dominance in Serie A last season, it was impossible for any other team to win the title. And so Simone Inzaghi's aim was to do well in the Champions League. And the team was able to qualify for the Champions League final. They failed to win against Manchester City in the final. Still I'd say they put up a good fight. Manchester City's squad was much stronger than Inter Milan's. By giving Simone Inzaghi more opportunities to work, he could make the Inter Milan squad more stable. I think the most favorite team to win the Serie A title next season is Inter Milan.

The problem in the case of limiting the gambling addict's access to gambling is quite difficult.  Such a player himself constantly comes up with an obsessive thought that he needs to play and win back a loss or win and rejoice. 
Not all people who are addicted to gambling are able to overcome themselves and at least temporarily, for example, for a week or two, simply do not turn on the computer at all.  But if such a person turns on the computer, this already means that he will go to a site with a gambling game.  And of course keep playing.  So the difficulty of the situation lies in overcoming this first step.  In my example, this is turning on the computer.
If addictions were already difficult to overcome before the internet became and integral part of our lives now this is even harder thanks to the internet, and this is not only a problem with gambling as now online casinos are everywhere and they follow you no matter where you go if you have a smartphone.

But this is even the case with drugs which can be easily accessed on the black markets or even on social media, and unless a person is completely convinced about trying to leave their life as an addicted person behind, then they will always find a way to go back to their former habits.

A drug addict will always find new excuses to consume drugs. Just like that any addict, it doesn’t matter what he is addicted to, we’ll find a way to get back in his addiction. I generally have seen some people stop their addiction because they were somehow facing some problems because of their addiction. The people who are smart stay away from those things. People who are careful, stops the addiction as soon as it starts harming them. However, those who lack sagacity or struggle to exert control over their own cognitive faculties find themselves perpetually ensnared by their compulsions. It is true for both drugs and gambling. And those people who understand very well that they are harming themselves by doing so, I have zero sympathy for them. If you cannot control what you are doing, it is your fault, learn to take accountability.

Hoffenheim announced their latest signing and that player is Wout Weghorst, who last season was loaned by Manchester United from Burnley. The contract agreement only applies to a season-long loan and it looks like the Dutch striker will return to nostalgia in the bundesliga after he last played for Wolfsburg in 2018 - early 2022. Hoffenheim finished 12th in the standings last season and with additional players for the line attack allows them to maximize their wins and get a better position. Well, hopefully Wout Weghorst can be more productive with Hoffenheim because we know last season he wasn't that good when he was a Manchester United player.

Wout weghorst's performance with Manchester United was not good. Manchester united gave him a chance in 17 matches. But he was not able to score any goal. However, he did not get a chance in Manchester United's starting XI. But if he could have put in an impressive performance in a match, Ten Hag might have given Wout Weghorst more opportunities. However, Hoffenheim is not a very big team. Wout weghorst will get a chance to perform regularly in this team. If Wout Weghorst is diligent then I believe Wout Weghorst has a chance to do well with Hoffenheim. Hopefully we will see a better performance from Wout Weghorst than before.

Anyway, it is interesting to know how the drama of Mbappe's transfer to end. If he stays in PSG, he is probably to sit on the bench because he has a bad relationship with PSG management. Or PSG will loan him to another team, so PSG won't be confused to treat him on the team anymore.
kawetsriyanto, I agree with you. Kylian Mbappe has a big chance to join Real Madrid, but maybe not for free as I believe. Real Madrid need to make a formal bid for him if they want to win the title next season but if they don't then I think Real Madrid are really struggling expecting to win the title.
Without Benzema Real Madrid's attack line is completely ineffective, but I don't know how they will form in official matches. Joselu was not brought in to replace Benzema, but he is an alternative if Ancelotti has no other options on the bench. The fact that releasing Asensio and Benzema at the same time has created its own problems for Real Madrid, but they can fix it.
Situation is very strange right now because few clubs are looking for the possible transfer of the Kylian Mbappé, but he wants to join Real Madrid, but they are not having enough funds for this all which is making things complicated and few clubs which are interested they want to secure long term deal, but he is not ready for this as well as he is committed to Real Madrid for the 2024 or in this season and also not extended his contract with PSG mean he is playing all his cards wisely and just PSG is feeling pain for this all situation.

If we have Kylian Mbappé here in Real Madrid then surely we will have changes in many things like Real Madrid could be hot favorite for the La Liga, and also they could be make their mark into Champions League as well right now their squad is best just missing central striker which give them enough goals for the win and after Benzema they are having not right person.

@savetheFORUM You probably haven't seen the latest news. Real Madrid are ready to sign Mbappe this season. And Florentino Perez says Madrid have prepared funds of 180 million for Mbappe. And if Mbappe admits that he wants to leave PSG this season, Madrid management will officially make an offer to PSG management for Mbappe. But Mbappe is not interested in leaving PSG this season. He will leave PSG as a free agent. And will demand a bigger signing bonus from the club he joins.

The Madrid team is very stable and strong. And one weakness in their squad is that they lack experienced scorers. Vini and Rodrygo are not experienced enough. This is why Madrid need an experienced scorer like Mbappe. And having Mbappe in the team will make their attack even stronger. And I think they will be able to dominate La Liga and Champions League

While we didn't pay attention to Inzaghi and his contract with Inter Milan, and there was some news about this coach leaving Inter Milan because of having better offers or because of have unstable performance in the first weeks of the season, but it seems Inzaghi and Inter Milan prefer to work with each other for a longer time because Inzaghi recently extended his contract with Inter Milan for one more year.

https://sempreinter.com/2023/08/08/why-inter-milan-decided-to-extend-the-contract-of-simone-inzaghi/



I think Inzaghi is a successful manager. He took Inter to the UCL final last year and played a very good final game. Even though he didn't get what he wanted in the league, he became a coach that left a mark in UCL. I think he is a coach who has the ability to work at Inter for many more years.

Inzaghi is a good enough coach, and you know, last season Inter Milan played brilliantly with the help of Inzaghi. Although they can not win the title, however I must have to say the dominance shown by Inter Milan in the Champions League is truly commendable. No one expected Inter Milan to play in the Champions League final. Inter Milan performed well in Serie A. However, due to the weakness of the defense, the team lost points in several matches. So my honest opinion is Inter Milan should extend Inzaghi's contract. If Inzaghi stays with this team for a long time, he will be able to curate a squad capable of dominating Serie A.

In as much as Bayern Munich seriously need a striker like Harry Kane, the English national team captain also needs a club like Bayern in other to crown his footballing career with trophies.
Reports has it that the player and club has reached personal agreements but has been hindered to finally sign the transfer papers by Tottenham Hotspur's club chairman who is yet to consent to the player's departure. I think Harry Kane can do better in forcing his way out of the club and it's best to do it now to save his career

In the next few years Tottenham will never get better if they continue still with the chairman, they have no hopes of winning a trophy.
Rejecting such offer from Bayern Munich wasn't expected if the player has agreement with the Bayern Munich. The offer brought was a good one yet they still decided turning down the offer.
I really want to see him winning a trophy finally but all hopes this season are not looking well for him to win if he considers staying further. Thomas Tuchel has pressured so hard for Kane he really want to get it done
He is so insistent on this transfer request as he has witnessed what a scorer he is in the Premier League. The Tottenham president is making all kinds of excuses not to send Kane. If Kane wants to leave, there's no point in forcibly keeping him on the team. The same is possible for Mbappe. If he doesn't want to stay in Paris, they should allow the transfer of the player.
Mbappe is a player I am so disappointed with, what a big chance he had to join Real Madrid rather he turned down the offer and Real Madrid President was disappointed. Joining Madrid is a life time thing, you leave or stay the fans will forever hold you at heart.
Kylian Mbappe screwed things up I find it difficult to agree they will get him still but nothing gets to be impossible in the transfer window.
Harry Kane also should force his way out,  Tottenham has kept him stagnant for so long. Another talented player that need leave is Son

Even though Mbappe is a great player actually his behavior annoys everyone and I would say Mbappe's fans are also very upset about it. The fact is mbappe probably doesn't even know what he wants. if you look closely PSG management wanted to give him a big bonus, increase his wages however, he is not interested in staying with PSG, Why! Another thing is Real Madrid are interested in buying mbappe at a high price and perhaps PSG management would have agreed to Madrid's offer, but mbappe doesn't want to leave PSG!! We are seeing very strange behavior from mbappe, he will likely spend time on the bench next season.

Bayern Munich are interested in spending up to 100 million for Harry Kane, but even then Tottenham management did not agree. Kane is out of contract next season. We also don't know what Tottenham management is planning for Kane.

Regarding the game between Lorient and PSG, there was some news that PSG will not use Mbappe in this game and they won't even put his name on the list for this match but we can't be sure if they really do that to Mbappe. According to some news, Mbappe is still waiting for the list of this game, and if they really remove his name from the list of players he will think about leaving PSG for another team because surely Mbappe doesn't want to stay in PSG for one year and don't play even one game for this team.
Not only about that news but Kylian Mbappe's poster at the Parc de Princes stadium has been removed, could this be an indication of PSG being too annoyed with Mbappe's attitude of not wanting to sign a new contract? But whatever it is, it's clear that the current situation is very chaotic, all speculation about Mbappe's transfer is still busy everywhere.

I think that even if Mbappe's poster is removed, it's possible that it will be replaced with a new poster because the new Ligue 1 season will be starting soon. But it's also possible that PSG don't want to put up the poster anymore because they feel betrayed by Mbappe. Now we will see how far this problem will be resolved.

The fact is everyone is very upset with the use of Mbappe. If he doesn't want to renew the contract, he should definitely leave. Mbappe wants to move to Real Madrid, and Florentina Perez is interested in buying mbappe, however he remains tight lipped about leaving the club, strange! I think Nasser Al Khelaifi will have a tougher decision to make if mbappe doesn not leave the club, he will keep mbappe on the bench for the entire season. You know psg have no shortage of money they are definitely a very rich club, while mbappe is looking to hurt PSG financially, psg management is ready to accept more losses. Even if they pay mbappe high wages, mbappe will not get a place in the squad. and for a star player like Mbappe, that would be a shame.

We have not seen a very good performance from the Indian bowlers today. A descent of 160 runs set a target for the West Indies players. 159 runs on this pitch is enough to win if the performance of the bowlers is controlled.
West Indies top order players batted very responsibly today. Opener Brandon King scored 42 runs and Kyle Mayers scored 20 runs. Although Nicholas Pooran could not play a big innings, he collected 12 balls and 20 runs. Rovman Powell made a great knock in today's match. He was unbeaten scoring 40 runs off just 19 balls. Overall I would say West Indies are in control of the match. The team has a chance to win the series by winning today's match. Let's see how West Indies bowlers perform today.
I am not agreed with you about this we have 106 runs in first 15 overs which is good bowling by them but sadly in last 5 overs 53 runs and 1 wicket create some problem for the Indians but now start of batting is also interesting because first over we have 16 runs and one wicket with right now SKY and Shubman on crease and having aggressive approach which is also good because right now India need this aggression if they want to fight back into this series.

Attack on Akeel Hussain is good from SKY as today he is doing good job right now 25 from 14 balls we need him on crease for some more overs.

Joseph gives another breakthrough to West Indies, and he has wicket of Shubman in his second over with first over was also good on target.

West Indies collected 73 runs in the first 10 overs. But they lost only 1 wicket. The West Indies players were well aware that they had the ability to deliver a decent target if they did not lose early wickets. The bowlers of the Indian team managed to bowl with some control, but they could not pick up quick wickets. This is why West Indies managed to collect 159 runs in the end.
West Indies collected 53 runs in the last 5 overs. Is it too many runs in the last 5 overs? I don't think so. If the Indian bowlers could have picked up several wickets early on, the West Indies batsmen would have been under pressure.

India lost their two openers quickly. However, Suryakumar Yadav's performance today is surprising. He collected 51 runs off just 26 balls. Tilak Varma was also unbeaten with 18 runs off 11 balls. India collected 79 runs in 8 overs. The match is currently under India's control. India will win if they don't suffer a batting disaster.

If Windies manages to beat India tonight then it would be their 1st bilateral series win against India in a decade, to be more precise after 16 years. 
I reckon knives will come out against the Indian team, not from the management but surely from the fans. 
Hardik Pandya-led Indian team is playing against West Indies and India is likely to lose today's match as well. However, Yashsavi Jaiswal is making his debut in today's match. However, he is being dropped in place of Ishan Kishan and Kuldeep Yadav has been given a chance again in today's match. But in today's match I will not leave India behind but there is a fifty fifty chance. If West Indies win today's match then they will confirm the series.
In today's match too, India kept their senior players in the squad. Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Jadeja are not in the squad today. India had to lose the last two matches due to bad batting. Apart from young player Tilak Varma, no other Indian player performed well.
West Indies won the toss and decided to bat. It is very difficult to predict which team will win. If they can provide more than 160 target then West Indies will have more chances of victory. But this Indian squad is strong enough. Every player is talented. They are not in good form so they are not playing well. But this squad also has the potential to score high.
India lost two consecutive matches due to the absence of senior players. Although Hardik Pandya has lined up the squad with young players, the top-order batsmen have failed miserably in two consecutive matches.
In today's match, India is bowling under enough control. But if India can control West Indies within 150 runs then India will have a chance to win. But West Indies collected 73 runs after losing only one wicket after 10 overs. Today's match is very important for West Indies because if West Indies can win today's match then it will win the series against India at home after 16 long years in history.

We have not seen a very good performance from the Indian bowlers today. A descent of 160 runs set a target for the West Indies players. 159 runs on this pitch is enough to win if the performance of the bowlers is controlled.

If Bayern Munich doesn't manage to get a new striker for next season, Bayern Munich will not only have difficulties in the Champions League, but Bayern Munich may also have difficulties in the Bundesliga because other teams like Dortmund can also be strong next season even though for now Dortmund looks like not taken into account by many people. So Thomas Tuchel's own task for now is still very much because apart from having to be able to find better front-line players, Thomas Tuchel must also be able to make Bayern Munich stronger next season with the existing players.
I think it's the other way around if Bayern Munich doesn't get a pure striker next season then they will have more difficulty competing in the champions league than the bundesliga. We know that with very even players at Bayern Munich and only lacking a finisher in front of goal they still won the Bundesliga last season, yes although everyone knows they had a very dramatic final. But what is clear is that a striker will still be needed by Bayern Munich regardless of any competition and with very good finances they should be able to do it.

Bayern Munich's squad is still quite strong. Especially their attack is strong. Bayern Munich managed to score 8 goals in the last two friendly matches. From this it can be assumed that their attack is still strong enough. Although there is no experienced striker in their attack. I have closely watched Bayern Munich's friendly matches. I think the team is becoming more stable with Thomas Tuchel. This squad will have no problem winning the Bundesliga title. The strongest and most stable team in the Bundesliga is still Bayern Munich. However, if they want to do well in the Champions League, they definitely need an experienced striker. The competition in the Champions League is very high. If the squad is not strengthened, this team has no hope of doing well in the Champions League.

Teams like Milan and Inter also previously won the scudetto, but in the end Milan and Inter also failed to defend the title. Especially about Napoli, which basically Napoli is not a strong team from season to season to be at the top of the standings. So naturally, if in the next season Napoli cannot defend the title. After all, even though for example Napoli still has a squad with the same strength as last season but still, after all defending the title is a difficult job compared to getting it.
you are right, the majority of Serie A teams that secure the championship struggle to maintain their title defense, with the notable exceptions of Juventus and Inter Milan. These two clubs have successfully retained their Scudetto titles in the subsequent seasons over the past two decades. Milan experienced a downturn after their Scudetto victory, working hard to restore the team's strength before reclaiming the title again few season ago. as we know Milan's consistency was lacking in the previous season. Napoli, now under the guidance of a new coach, appears to be in need of time to enhance their team's performance.

It is difficult to say which team is the favorite for the Serie A title next season. The overall condition of the Juventus team is not good. They are not They do not form a stable squad yet.Their performance is anything but erratic. On the other hand the situation of champions team napoli is not that much good. They have sold several players on the team. Osimhen is also likely to be sold by Napoli. More importantly, their coach has changed. We don't know how napoli will perform with the new coach. ac Milan and Inter Milan are in relatively good condition. AC milan spent around more than  110 million to strengthen their squad. Inter milan's situation is also quite good now. I think Inter milan or AC Milan are more likely to win the title next season.

Even if he doesn't play well with Barcelona, Dembele has the potential to perform well in Ligue 1. PSG coach Luis Enrique is quite experienced. And the important thing is that he is completely new to the PSG team. He will work with this team anew. At the same time, Luis Enrique will probably bring several more changes to the team. Because of this it will be a bit easier for Dembele to adapt to psg's players. Moreover, Ligue 1 teams are slightly weaker than La Liga teams. This is why it will be easy for dembele to perform well. We may soon see Dembele in a PSG jersey. However, this agreement is repeatedly delayed.
Of course, for Dembere, this will be a very profitable transfer, firstly, he will achieve his goal and will receive a large salary, and secondly, it seems to me that with Enrique, PSG have very good chances of becoming an even stronger team. I don’t follow how Barcelona pays salaries now, but last season they had big problems with this and some players were delayed payments for half a year, maybe now I don’t know the situation better, but I’m sure that PSG will have no problem with this.
You are right, With Luis Enrique, PSG have the potential to build a stronger team and improve performance. There is no doubt that Enrique is a very experienced coach. And of the few coaches PSG have had in their last few seasons, Enrique is arguably the most experienced and successful. He worked with the Spain team. Young confidence helped stabilize the Spain team's performance. Enrique is expected to be able to change the entire landscape of PSG if he is given the freedom and bigger funds. With PSG, Dembele's performance will also improve and he will earn higher wages.
Luis Enrique is one of the most experienced managers that PSG have appointed so far. We have no doubt about his experience and technique in managing the team, he is undoubtedly the best manager. At the moment Luis Enrique has taken charge of PSG and the fans are expecting good things under him. If Luis Enrique can be given enough money in proportion to the amount of money that PSG have spent in the last few seasons, he can bring this team much more success. When Messi and Neymar played for Barcelona under Luis Enrique, it was a golden era for Barcelona. PSG should have appointed Luis Enrique as manager with Messi in PSG. If Luis Enrique had been the manager of PSG then the scenario of the team would have been different now.

Luis Enrique can be called a successful coach. He has done an excellent job with the barcelona team. And more importantly, he has been able to strengthen the Spanish team as well. Luis Enrique has experience working with young players. Even though PSG have plenty of money, they have made mistakes in picking the players they need for their squad. They bought star players, yet PSG performance was poor. If Luis Enriqe is given enough fund from PSG management, then Luis Enrique can build the squad according to his choice. And I think this team will be able to dominate the Champions League if Luis Enrique gets the chance to build the team to his liking.

Milan have spent 110 million euros on transfers already. But they have done this by spending this money on 6 players rather than 1 or 2. They don't like the idea of making one sensational transfer then I assume. They just want to strengthen multiple areas and increase the number of alternative players at the same time.

As far as I can see Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek and Chukwueze are the most impressive transfers. I don't have a wide knowledge about the other transfers. I can just criticize the Okafor transfer because he hasn't been a good scorer so far as the number of goals over the years isn't much good.

AC Milan usually don't spend much money on player purchases. AC Milan are not as rich as Premier League teams. They refrain themselves from buying star players. While other clubs spent 100 million on just one player, Milan added 6 players to the squad by spending 110 million. But the players are not very well known. Christian Pulisic is a very talented player. I think Christian Pulisic will not disappoint AC Milan. Milan team will get better performance from Pulisic next season. Ruben Ira Loftus-Cheek also played with Chelsea for a long time. Milan can expect a better performance from Ruben Ira Loftus Cheek.

Even if he doesn't play well with Barcelona, Dembele has the potential to perform well in Ligue 1. PSG coach Luis Enrique is quite experienced. And the important thing is that he is completely new to the PSG team. He will work with this team anew. At the same time, Luis Enrique will probably bring several more changes to the team. Because of this it will be a bit easier for Dembele to adapt to psg's players. Moreover, Ligue 1 teams are slightly weaker than La Liga teams. This is why it will be easy for dembele to perform well. We may soon see Dembele in a PSG jersey. However, this agreement is repeatedly delayed.
Of course, for Dembere, this will be a very profitable transfer, firstly, he will achieve his goal and will receive a large salary, and secondly, it seems to me that with Enrique, PSG have very good chances of becoming an even stronger team. I don’t follow how Barcelona pays salaries now, but last season they had big problems with this and some players were delayed payments for half a year, maybe now I don’t know the situation better, but I’m sure that PSG will have no problem with this.

Yes it's true, with Luis Enrique the team have the potential to build strong squad and improve their performance. There is definitely no doubt that he is very experienced coach and if you look at the few coaches who trained PSG in their last few seasons Enrique is arguably the most experienced and successful. I can see he worked with Spain team and young confidence helped stabilize the Spain team's performance. Enrique is expected to be able to change the entire landscape of PSG if he is given the freedom and bigger funds. With PSG, Dembele's performance will also improve and he will earn higher wages.

Barcelona expected more from Dembele. But Dembele failed to live up to Barcelona's expectations. The team did not perform very well against Barcelona. Dembele has been playing with Barcelona for 6 seasons. In 6 seasons he played only 127 matches in La Liga. And scoring only 24. And so Barcelona are unwilling to increase Dembele's wages to keep him with the squad. If Dembele does not ask for an increase in wages, Barcelona will probably keep Dembele in the squad.
However, Barcelona could make a smart amount of money by selling Dembele to PSG. Barcelona spent 135 million to sign Dembele. But they don't get better performance than Dembele. Dembele was a loss project for Barcelona. However, it is not yet clear how much money PSG are willing to spend on Dembele.
According to what the Lequipe journalists write, the transfer amount will be 50 million, and Dembele will receive a salary increase at PSG. And if nothing changes, then Dembele may be officially announced as a PSG player tomorrow, August 7th. Even if Dembele did not live up to Barcelona's expectations, they would still like to keep him in the team, but due to financial instability, they cannot do this. By the way, for the same reason, Messi did not back to Barcelona...
Anyway, Dembele will still be fine if he leaves Barcelona, or maybe Dembele can develop even better in another club because maybe playing at Barcelona is maybe Dembele get more high pressure. Because Barcelona condition is also not completely good so yes, it would be better for players with big fees, maybe it would be better for some of them to be sold. At least, to restore Barcelona finances as well and over time they will at least be able to get what they want if they succeed from time to time.

Barcelona's financial situation is not good. They are spending enough money to buy players though. However, the Barcelona club is still in financial trouble. Dembele wants higher wages from barcelona. It is probably not possible for barcelona to increase Dembele's wages now. Because Dembele is unable to make any significant contribution to Barcelona's overall performance. And so the Barcelona management will benefit if they make money by selling Dembele. This money they can use to buy any new players.  Perhaps we're going to see Dembele very soon with PSG. It would also be a very good deal for Dembele. Also, with the help of Luis Enrique, Dembele can adapt himself to the PSG squad very quickly.

Actually Sadio Mane is not able to adapt his playstyle to Bayern Munich, another thing is if you consider last season then you could see that time the management of Munich failed to use Mane properly. So Sadio Mane's performance was very poor. This is why Bayern Munich have Sadio Mane in their squad next season.

Mbappe is unlikely to join Munich. Perhaps he will go with Madrid. Or he will go to a Premier League club. I haven't heard any rumors that Mbappe is interested in playing in the Bundesliga.

Harry Kane is the perfect choice to replace Lewandowski. Kane is an experienced player. Kane also has the ability to score a lot of goals. And more importantly Kane's fitness is very good. As Bayern Munich aim for next season's Champions League, they want to strengthen their squad by any means possible.
If I was the manager in Bayern Munich I would pay more attention and be more careful bout hieing Harry Kane and spending money on him because they hired Sadio Mane in the same situation and he failed to have a good performance in Bayern Munich while they were expecting to see him be a good replacement for Lewandowski.
Harry Kane is also a 30-year-old player and if he joins Bayern Munich and fails he will be an old and bad-performing player for Bayern Munich just like Sadio Mane and I'm sure Bayern Munich will feel regret of spending this huge amount of money on him.

Sadio Mane and Harry Kane cannot be thought of as the same. Sadio Mane was bought by Bayern Munich as a replacement for Lewa. Lewa was a scorer. He scored a lot of goals with Munich. But Sadio Mane was never a scorer. Mane scored 22 goals in a single season with Liverpool, in the 2018–19 season. Bayern Munich management made mistakes in player selection.

Harry Kane and Lewa play almost the same style. Kane is a regular scorer in the Tottenham squad. Hopefully he will be able to score more goals if he is with a strong and experienced squad like Munich. But first he has to adapt himself to Munich's gameplay. If he can't adapt to Munich's tactics, Kane won't be able to score too many goals.
