There is a PSG - Lorient game today and I'm quite curious about it. Because Mbappe isn't expected to play and the reason is being inactive. Will PSG really leave him out of squad? Or it is just until his situation gets clear until the end of this transfer window maybe. Neymar is also not expected to play as he will be leaving this summer.
Therefore PSG are going to play with a completely new trio in the attacking line which will be quite interesting to watch. Because it has been a long time since we didn't see any of players like Mbappe, Messi and Neymar on the pitch at the same time.

Yeah I have read Fabrizio Romano's tweet later. Tottenham have accepted a deal which is 100 million euros plus up to 20 million bonuses. Finally this deal is happening for Bayern Munich. They had to spend a lot of money on this transfer. But I don't have question marks about this agreement.
Even though Bayern Munich are about to pay a huge amount of money to Tottenham and Kane combined I believe they will still benefit from this deal significantly in the long run. Kane has similar characteristics to Lewandowski in terms of being a complete forward. I hope this all happens very quickly, with so much money, many people and clubs will want to profit from it. But tomorrow is the first important game from Bayern Munich. They play in the Supercup against RB Leipzig and the final will be played in the Allianz Arena in Munich. Currently, as strikers Gnabry and Tel would be in the lineup and Tel is a talented player, but with 18 years still very young and not as strong as a Kane. Also in goal will be Ulreich, which I think is not the best choice. If I look at other names, then I would say this Team is not complete right now. I hope so too. But Kane won't be a part of the Leipzig game most probably. However I hope he can join training quickly and reach match fitness. Because in only six days the Bundesliga is starting and I would like to see him starting to play as of the first week. Even if he don't be in the starting lineup on that day he can enter the game later. I also agree that Bayern Munich's squad isn't complete yet. A goalkeeper should be signed immediately. As they have completed Kane signing they can focus on goalkeeper transfer quickly. Bono and Rulli have been the latest rumours. |

Arsenal - Nottingham is going to be the first game today. I'm very curious about Arsenal's new season performance. They had a wonderful season the last time as you remember. I hope to see them in a title challenge again. They have made quite nice transfers this summer and spent a lot of money as I said before.
We will see how the most expensive trio of this summer will perform as of the beginning of this season. Nottingham is an easy opponent for Arsenal. I'm expecting a comfortable win by Arsenal by at least two goals honestly. It would be nice to have a start like this to show how determined they are this season too.

Real Sociedad had a wonderful season the last time. That great effort helped them qualify for the Champions League by finishing the season at the 4th position. Sorloth was their most scorer but he has joined Villarreal now. He was on loan at Real Sociedad of course. I thought they would like to keep him for another season.
Now I think the board will be expectant from Real Sociedad to be in a fight for top 4 again. I wonder how consistent they can be this season. But the first week fixture is technically comfortable for them on paper. They just need to be careful as they got a draw with Girona the last time they played against them home.

Osimhen must be staying from now on. I don't expect him to go to Saudi Arabia before anything else. When it comes to European teams I don't see any team interested in him seriously these days. As a result I don't see any reason for Osimhen to leave this summer. This is important news for Napoli of course as they will stay solid in terms of player quality.
They just needed a centre-back after Kim Min-jae's departure. But it looks like they have found a solution to this situation as well. Natan who is a young defender has been brought from Bragantino. They paid only 10 million euros. If he improves his skills Napoli might make a good profit in case he is also sold in the future.

It was such an amazing start for Haaland and Rodri. But especially Haaland impressed people a lot by scoring 2 goals already. He is just continuing from where he left off. Haaland has already broken a goal record in one season in the Premier League. But it looks like he is always competitive to go for new records.
Let's see whether this will be another very consistent season for him. It was a pretty easy victory for Manchester City as well. I had a small doubt about them after seeing how they were defeated by Arsenal first but they showed that they are ready for a new season in the Premier League already.

Chelsea must be really thankful for Caicedo's loyalty. Because he was wishing to join their side from the beginning already and he didn't change his mind even in the current situation. Brighton were just caring about having the highest bid for him but now Liverpool's offer won't matter anymore.
But Brighton are still expecting to see an improved offer from Chelsea to sell him to them. As Liverpool have increased the level to a higher place Chelsea will need to offer a little more than 110 million pounds. But at this point I don't expect them to give up of course.

It is really unbelievable that Liverpool intervened in the last minute for Caicedo by paying 10 more million pounds.  Chelsea must be devastated after Brighton accepted Liverpool's offer as final. Brighton were going to accept the highest offer until the end of the day as far as I have read. So Chelsea will need to find a new alternative to Caicedo from now on. After this news I'm curious about whether Chelsea can still go for Lavia. Because Liverpool have already agreed with Caicedo who is another defensive midfielder. They might drop their interest in Lavia maybe. |

Bayern Munich need to solve their centre-forward problem first and then I can be more confident about them. This was one of the main reasons why they struggled more than normal last season. They needed a striker like Lewandowski. Finally they have found their candidate who is Kane but there is still no agreement on transfer fee.
One way or another they should finish this job successfully. Apart from that they need a goalkeeper as I already said. In addition maybe they would make use of a winger as well after Mane's departure but it isn't priority of course.
The problems with the center forward play are already solved and I guess they are going to hire Harry Kane because even Tottenham can't eject the offer when they increase the price for this player and they will accept the offer from Bayern Munich, even Kane's wife is trying to find a house on Germany and this can show us the transfer is done and they are going to sign the contract soon. Yeah I have read Fabrizio Romano's tweet later. Tottenham have accepted a deal which is 100 million euros plus up to 20 million bonuses. Finally this deal is happening for Bayern Munich. They had to spend a lot of money on this transfer. But I don't have question marks about this agreement.

We are only two days away from an Athletic Bilbao - Real Madrid game. This is a quite tough game to start the season for Real Madrid honestly. If it wasn't an away game then maybe things might have been a little easier. When we look at their head-to-head history in this stadium Real Madrid have actually been quite successful.
But as this is the first game of the season it is still difficult to predict how Real Madrid will start. Their addition of Bellingham to the team is really important as he is a very skilled young midfielder who can be regular in the starting lineup. I wonder whether we will see him in this game. I think Real Madrid will manage to win this by one goal gap.
Real Madrid's position is complete, with the exception of the striker position, but even though they have players like Rodrigo and Joselu who can fill that position, I am not satisfied with it, so I predict that Real Madrid will start La Liga in good performance and also end it in good performance. Real Madrid will try their best because they have many midfield players and also have the new sign players like Bellingham, Garcia, and Joselu, who are very talented. Since Benzema departed the squad, the real Madrid stricker position has not been in excellent shape, which is why I'm dissatisfied with it. I believe they need to find another stricker who can handle the position like Benzema. Although Rodrigo and Joselu are capable of filling in at the position, Real Madrid should also consider how they performed against Barcelona in the preseason game. Although I recognise that Barcelona is a strong team and can defeat Real Madrid, at the very least, Real Madrid should be able to score back a goal, even if it is just one. Another issue I continue to have concerns Real Madrid's goal keeper. I recently heard that Courtios, the best custodian for Real Madrid and one of the best in the world, has injured and won't be able to join them in time for the league opener. Courtios has been instrumental in many of Real Madrid's victories against their rivals, so I hope they can manage without him. There is still no main striker in the squad indeed. The season is about to start and there is not a very long time left for the transfer window to be closed as well. They aren't going to have Mbappe this summer seemingly. Then they need to focus on finding a decent striker who can do a good job as much as Benzema if possible. For now yeah Rodrygo and Joselu are the only alternatives. I think Ancelotti will prefer Joselu in the centre-forward position in this game. But if he can't perform well then I will expect him to replace Joselu with Rodrygo right away. |

After hearing that Chelsea aren't interested in Vlahovic deal now I'm curious about what his future will be this summer. Because so far he hasn't been doing well with Allegri's system. The number of goals he scores has dropped down a lot. He just can't get enough chances in this system now. This swap deal is not that profitable for chelsea. Lukaku did better than Vlahovic last season. Why trade him and give extra money to Juventus?? It doesn't make sense. I really support chelsea to sell lukaku to another club. Chelsea will be able to get fresh money instead of wasting money to get vlahovic which is only having average performance. The smart club will also think about that. Juventus needs to sell vlahovic to the somewhere else. Vlahovic is not worth 75m. We can categorize his performance as bad enough. It's a loss for chelsea if the club deals to swap lukaku + extra money for vlahovic. Honestly I think he should still leave for another top team whose system would fit his playing style more. I would love to watch him at Real Madrid for example. Because Real Madrid are also in search of a striker and Mbappe is likely to join them only by next summer as it seems.
Vlahovic is not even worthy to be recruited by real madrid. Juventus puts exorbitant price for him which doesn't make sense. The old lady needs to decrease vlahovic's price first before it can continue to offer him to the another club. There will be none interesting sign him as a new striker. Vlahovic didn't do well last season because he doesn't fit Allegri's system. You must be remembering how great he was playing for Fiorentina before coming here. Normally he is a way better scorer than Lukaku now. I think taking only one season into account isn't a healthy assessment for these players. Apart from that Real Madrid have signed Joselu for example. If he is worthy to play for them Vlahovic should definitely be worthy in my opinion. Vlahovic just needs to be given a chance at a big team whose system fits his game directly. I believe we will see much better performances from him then. |

Arsenal have spent around 230 million euros on transfer fees this summer. This amount is only for three players at the same time. They have made a big investment into their midfield especially. Rice and Havertz will have a big responsibility in their roles. Especially Rice will be expected to perform even more considering his cost and skills.
Rice can make the midfield much more reliable in time to help decrease the number of goals Arsenal concede as well. When it comes to Havertz I'm not too much expectant from him for now. First we need to see how he will perform in his natural role here. I guess Arteta wouldn't put him in the centre-forward position much.

Manchester City in this season lost two key players, Riyad Mahrez to Al Ahli and İlkay Gündoğan to Barcelona which means they had to hire a money player in this transfer window to fill these empty places in the team but Lucas Paquetá is the player Guardiola wants to hire and sent him offer however Lucas Paquetá is still under contract with West Ham and they need to have negotiations with West Ham to hire this player, I'm also sure West Ham will not lose this player easily.  Not only Paqueta but also Wirtz has been on their radar as well. However it looks like they are closer to signing Paqueta now. Honestly Wirtz would be a wonderful investment into the future. But it looks like they want a more experienced attacking midfielder now. Paqueta can still be considered young as he is 25 years old. He is a quite skilled and experienced player that he can really be beneficial for Manchester City. But as long as we see Kevin De Bruyne in the same position it would be harder for Paqueta to find many chances. He can play only as a midfielder too so he had better work hard to earn his place. |

The opening game is Burnley - Manchester City. On paper of course this is a comfortable matchup for Manchester City. However this is the beginning of the season so let's see if we would see some struggles. They started the season with a sad loss against Arsenal in the Community Shield game. It would have been helpful for them to motivate themselves for this game more if they won.
But of course we are still talking about Manchester City. They should be able to win this game by one or two-goal gap probably. The gap would be even higher to me if we weren't at the beginning of the season. But who knows maybe I would still be wrong about it and we see a bigger win.

Liverpool have been trying to sign Romeo Lavia so far but now I see Chelsea are also in this race to steal him from Liverpool. It is said to be a 48 million pounds offer by Chelsea. This is quite a high amount of money so I wonder how true this rumour is about the transfer fee. But it looks like Liverpool are closer to signing him now.
Liverpool have been in need of a midfielder after losing Fabinho and Henderson both. Lavia is a quite young midfielder though but talented at the same time. I hope to see him adapting quickly and performing decenly. He is a defensive midfielder so he would play in Fabinho's position mostly.

Even before Lukaku joins Juventus the fans started to say how unhappy they are about this player and they said 'We don't want this player'. I think the transfer is not going to be done any time soon because Lukaku doesn't want to play in a team where they are unhappy about him and they can't have a good atmosphere there. However, is clear yet and they can still have negotiations.  I don't know if Juventus officials would be affected negatively by the reaction of fans to this possible transfer. But if Lukaku doesn't want to go there because of that then there is no way such deal is happening. In this case it starts to look like Chelsea won't be able to get rid of Lukaku this summer which is bad news for them. In Nkunku's absence Chelsea would make use of a striker transfer by giving Lukaku in a swap deal as well. Vlahovic is normally a decent candidate for them but let's see. |

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.
