I mean here, Nagelsmann implemented a strategy and instructed his players to create each other every opportunity that existed. In the end, as we all know, Bayern players have been productive. even so, Bayern Munich still needs a center forward, especially since it is rumored that Choupo-Moting will leave until his contract ends this season.
In the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich is still the strongest compared to other teams. the bayern munich squad even though this season is without central stickers to create more productive goal contributions but they are able to make a difference where they are not dependent on a player who is the executor of goals this season. we see this where the productivity of Bayern Munich goals was born from different players who alternately can score goals when they have the opportunity. But we can see where Bayern Munich director Oliver Kahn seems to have the ratios to bring in a central sticker which is a point for them for the winter window. Harry Kane has become Bayern Munich target for the front line in the second half of this season. |

I will be happy if Napoli maintains their dominance and win the title. This team has not been champion for a long time. They finished second in the points table several times but failed to win the title. Napoli has been performing very well since the beginning of this season. They are 10/11 points ahead of Milan and Juventus. Napoli will be able to win this season's title only if they perform somewhat consistently.
looks like we have the same hope to see Napoli become the team that will win the scudetto title this season. Osimhen and his friends have a point distance that is relatively far from the closest competitors. If Napoli can maintain its performance in the remaining matches this season then Spalletti will be able to present the Scudetto title for Napoli. Napoli had been fasting for a long time for the Scudetto title. The last time they won the Scudetto was in the 1989 season or about 33 years ago if I'm not mistaken. so this season Napoli can make history to be able to win back the Scudetto title this season. Even for Spalletti, this is a good moment for his coaching career this season with Napoli because if he brings Napoli to win the Scudetto, this will be the first time for him to reach the Scudetto trophy in his coaching career. |

Although South Koreans are attacking quite well but Brazilians are defending very well, Casemiro and Paqueta are indeed working in the midfied to help shield the defense properly. Having Neymar, Raphina and Vini has made the attacking and chances creating abilities massive. If Brazil should take this against Croatia National Side, they should start gathering already to leave DOHA. Smiles.
It's just too sad, the Asian countries are leaving this way, at least one out of South Korea and Japan should have made it to the quarter-finals. The round of i6 is filtering the good out of the better. Brazilians seems to be more corrosive with Nyemar in the line-up. Vini and Raphina serving as attacking machines. Casemiro making the midfield boarders crossless. My worries isn't on Croatia but on Argentina if the make it to the semi-finals it's true that Asian countries have to come home from the round of 16 where they have to accept defeat from their opponents, even in the ongoing match we see Brazil having a goal feast in this match where the temporary position is 4-0 for Brazil. There were no big surprises that happened in the round of 16 but I was amazed by the hard work from Japan but unfortunately they had to lose in a penalty shootout. in tomorrow match we will see portugal against switzerland and spain against morocco. maybe portugal has big hopes to win that match because they really want to show how ambitious they are in the world cup Qatar. |

It is not easy to suddenly become good just because you bought some players. I am not saying that West Ham is a bad team, obviously as we can see they are a good team but it doesn't mean that they are going to be that much better suddenly, they are good but that's about it and we should move on with it.
I feel like the fact that they spent money means nothing, if that was the only thing that give you results, Chelsea would have been leading the whole league, but they are not, barely in top 4 right now, and not doing awesome, even though they are the ones that spent the most money. This is why it's clear to me that West Ham needs more seasons like this to get good.
of course a team will go through a long process to become stronger than what happened to them before. but additional players are the first option to improve the quality of the current team even we saw newcastle united also made a big improvement in the last summer window and it seems they are doing a better job now. West Ham will most likely be able to make improvements in the winter window because for now we see them to be in 16th place in the standings with a collection of points that are quite close to teams who are in the relegation zone. |

I see 30% percent of the vote going for Germany in the poll the OP did in this thread. Brazil has 32% where Brazil is 2% ahead of the voting given to Germany, now this is great hope for the choice of the bitcointalk community and hopefully Brazil can reach the final and become a champion. In today match we will see the Brazil vs South Korea match which will be a comeback for Neymar after suffering an injury in the previous game. Neymar return made Brazil aggressive again in today's match. Brazil in the previous match suffered a defeat to Cameroon, in which Brazil was not strengthened by Neymar, but in today match I think Brazil is a good bet choice to their victory.

You guys are humorous, Ronaldo is occupied with Portugal team. He is a menace to the opposition when he is on the field. Instead of discussing Cristiano Ronaldo, let's not ignore the young talents that are struggling in the World Cup. The best player of all time is Ronaldo. He is going about his life and has impacted football. What more do you require of the elderly man? His market value is still higher than others you are comparing him to, even at his age. Every club wants to get Ronaldo, but the main obstacle to his signing is the fact that his pay is more than average. Ronaldo can still perform at any top league, regardless of his current form
Speculation about Ronaldo future is always interesting to discuss, especially after he pocketed himself as a free agent in the transfer window. It's no longer a reason that Ronaldo is in great demand by many clubs even though in terms of age he is old but he is able to provide something positive for teams that want to recruit him, both from a business perspective. maybe ronaldo will have the fate of ibrahimovic where ronaldo will be able to play until the age of 40 and even i think ronaldo will chase the trophy before he decides to hang up his boots. |

I still believe that Bayern Munich can maintain its positive performance in the Bundesliga this season because I still have doubts about all the other teams in the Bundesliga in terms of competing with Bayern Munich who can always perform well in the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich winning the Bundesliga is not a surprise or what we will speculate. They are over prepared for the task and there is no other club in the Bundesliga that is as prepared as Bayern. The only surprise we will see is if another club wins the Bundesliga. When the season started newly, Union Berlin and Freiburg gave hope that they can fight but it unfortunate they didn't prepare well. The Bundesliga already belongs to them, I also think that the Bundeliga is a competition for Bayern Munich. Union Berlin is expected to break Bayern Munich's dominance when they were top of the standings a few weeks ago. But what is happening now is that they have slumped and been thrown far from the position they occupied at the start of the season. Bayern Munich not only dominates the league, but the statistics they create will be very difficult for other teams to catch up with. It's boring to watch this kind of competition, but this won't change until there's a team that can actually beat them. Bayern Munich is indeed one of the strongest teams that cannot be replaced by other teams in the struggle for the championship trophy in the Bundesliga. as seen at the moment other teams in the bundesliga only produce stars in their team and sell to other clubs so there is no big strength for other teams when dealing with Bayern Munich. even Union Berlin, which was previously believed to be able to give a different feel to the Bundesliga at the start of the season, but they had to give up early before the league entered the second half. apart from that we see bayern munich stronger not only in the bundesliga but in the champions league Bayern Munich performed well enough to beat barcelona and inter milan in the group phase and we will see how consistent they are in the champions league this season. |

France made sure to qualify for the quarter-finals after beating Poland 3-1, as previously expected Poland would not be too difficult to beat France and one goal from Lewandowski was also the result of a penalty kick. Mbappe became the man of the match in this match after 2 goals against Poland and he is currently the youngest player to have scored 4 goals in two editions of the world cup. Currently Mbappe is the top scorer awhile with 5 goals from 4 matches played, quite impressive results and still has the chance to add to his collection of goals in the quarter final against the winner between England vs Senegal. Here top scorer position standing awhile, Moratta and Rashford still have chance added their collecting goals  Mbappe appeared extraordinary, he was like an alien boy in the world of football for being the top scorer for now by collecting 5 goals and the opportunity for him to add many goals in the next match. Now it has been seen who will be the top scorer for this world cup. Lionel Messi, Alvaro Morata and Gakpo chose the opportunity to catch Mbappe goal collection in the upcoming matches. these 4 players are strong candidates to become top scorers in the Qatar world cup. With the extraordinary achievements that Mbappe made at the World Cup, he broke the record for his actions at the Qatar World Cup. We'll see who the opponent for France is in the quarter-finals. |

In the first half France won 1-0 over Poland. This became the capital for France to qualify for the last 8 thanks to a goal from Giroud. But Poland also carried out attacks that were dangerous for France. The second half will be even more exciting, because Poland will continue to carry out attacks in order to catch up with goals.
The second half is pretty interesting to watch so far for me as a neutral spectator i have to say. France is still dominating the game and has a higher ball possession then Poland but it is already obvious that the Polish team is risking more because obviously they have to because they are one goal behind. This obviously means that France will get more and more space for their counter attacks as the game progresses, but Poland also already had a potential chance to score in the second half, but the cross missed their striker only by a few centimeters. At the moment i would still say though that France will go through with a 90% certainty. Mbappe just scored the second goal for France advantage and it can be said that France has pocketed 99% of qualifying for the next round. Indeed, France performed quite well in this match by being able to make a more aggressive game through the attacks they built. Giroud and Mbappe are the two stars who have listed their names on the scoreboard in this match. I even think that France can score again in the remaining time of the second half because the second goal that came from Mbappe made the Poland players lose their spirits and they were able to take advantage of this gap to score. btw I am very happy to see France win in this match and hope they can reach the final in the Qatar world cup. |

Big salaries are not a problem for the Al-Nassr club. But the next question is whether Cristiano Ronaldo is ready to join the Saudi Arabian league. Al-Nassr saw potential not only on the pitch, they bought Cristian Ronaldo not only for a football investment project and especially for the development of football in Saudi Arabia. While Chelsea are unlikely to invest their money in a player as old as Cristian Ronaldo, given his contribution and quality has declined, despite rumors circulating that Chelsea's new owners are interested in the superstar.
What I mean is European clubs they will definitely struggle on the issue of giving wages whereas for the Al-Nassr club they have no objection to that even a direct offer from them with 200 million euros plus with various sponsors who will be part of Ronaldo if possible in going to There, in essence the Arab League only wants to improve their league with the arrival of Ronaldo Of course, this league will become even more known if Ronaldo really anchors in the Arab League. That's what I think Chelsea is not worth investing in old players enough to know that Ronaldo has now decreased his performance due to age which cannot be avoided then it is back to coach Potter whether he can or will choose another player. Even though there is no agreement between the two clubs or whether Inter Milan will reject an offer from Asenal, Arteta is still quite sure that Hakan Calhanoglu still has the chance to accept an offer from them at least until the World Cup ends. There are still many possibilities that will happen after the World Cup ends.
Anything can happen but it also depends on their players that's for sure after the World Cup is over we'll see all sorts of transfer news in the winter, with Arteta's interest in Hakan Calhanoglu it's pretty sure Arsenal's management team will try to get him back on a final decision after the transfer window opens the rumors will get stronger about this news, because I see that Hakan Calhanoglu has been quite impressive performing for Inter Milan. As you said it is true that if Al Nassr succeeds in bringing in Ronaldo, the Arab League will become increasingly known, but that will only be for a moment or the next 2 seasons. Al Nassr can also make history if they are able to bring in Ronaldo because it will break the record for wages for one player. Age is indeed a factor for European teams to bring in Ronaldo but Chelsea is very close to Ronaldo after Ronaldo's agent met Todd Boehly in the transfer window last summer. There is a lot of wild speculation circulating out there regarding Ronaldo future in his new team where financially healthy clubs are rumored to have a desire to get Ronaldo. |

Rodrygo is not enough as he was not so impressive like benzema. I prefer to see real madrid to take another pure striker rather than use him. He's no suitable to play at that position.
Maybe Real Madrid can approach Harry Kane. I think he's a good striker with a lot of experience. I think he is similar to Benzema. Apart from that, maybe Kane actually wants to find a club that can give him a trophy. But I heard that Anceloti has many transfer options for Jude Bellingham, Youri Tielemans, Enzo Fernandez, Youssoufa Moukoko, Alphonso Davies and Stanislav Lobotka. several players have been on ancelotti watchlist for real madrid front line in the second half of the season. As you mentioned, the players that are the target of ancelotti are the stickers that have the best quality. Harry Kane may be number 1 in Real Madrid target in January because Harry Kane future at Tottenham is still a big question mark because he hasn't decided to extend his contract. even richarlison was also rumored to be the target of real madrid for the front lines because richarlison was a deadly duo for vinicius and rodrygo on the front lines. Will that happen, if true then Real Madrid front line will be filled with players from Brazil. |

I do believe that USA has the first chance to qualify because Netherlands didn't prove anything so far in this World Cup besides having easy victories with not so important teams.
The biggest threat the United States will have in their goal will be Gakpo who has been on good form and is currently one of the highest goal scorers in this competition, If their defense can put him under lock and ensure he doesn't get enough of the ball to get creative, they can actually reduce the scoring chance for Netherlands. I believe USA can win, there is a good fighting spirit with the team that we saw on their journey to this point, the United states have my bet to win. It is very difficult for the United States to stop the Netherlands in today match. because netherlands are an ambitious team that was doubted before but they were able to make something extraordinary in the group stage. The Netherlands front line is quite good, so I'm sure Cody Gakpo will be able to trouble the United States defense line with his actions in the match later. this is a tough match for the usa in the round of 16 because they are facing a stronger team in terms of the quality of the players but in this world cup surprises can happen but in today match I don't think that surprise will benefit the usa. |

I guess Brazil vs England
Football is a game with 90 minutes and we cannot predict another until the day comes up but from what I saw so far I can say the final match will be a game between Brazil and England because they deserve to play in the final match because the games we see and players they got, but teams have plans for a 90-minute game and they have a plan for every single minute they play while other teams are not in their best from to play.
England might be able to beat Senegal in the knockout round later in the last 16 but France will beat Poland and if that happens then England will meet France which I think will be difficult for England to play France in the quarter finals I just think Argentina and Portugal have a way smooth sailing to meet in the final England does have a greater chance of qualifying for the last 16 because it is believed that England will be able to carve an easy victory against Senegal. well in this case if England wins they will face tougher opponents in the quarter-finals. but all kinds of surprises can happen in the round of 16 because the national teams that qualify for the round of 16 will definitely play very aggressively to achieve their goals. Well, in the final, I think Brazil will reach it where I hope the Qatar World Cup final can bring together teams from Latin countries between Brazil and Argentina. |

So as far as Cristiano Ronaldo is concerned, at the moment we are on three rumors
-Saudi Arabia for 220 million euros over 3 years.
-Arsenal because of the interview that became famous
-Chelsea has recurring rumors about this sign but nothing concrete at the moment
I see Arsenal as the least possibility. Because they aren't in need of a striker at the moment. They definitely don't need to spend a lot of money only for Ronaldo in January. Even though Jesus hasn't been scoring goals for two months Arsenal have still been doing very good in their league games. The team effort is already at a high level so they don't need to splurge on a player now. Arteta has a quite nice budget in his hands now which is the truth but he would use it more effectively like increasing the number of good player alternatives. Saudi Arabia might be like last resort for him in case he doesn't find a team in Europe. The Saudi Arabia offer is just too big to ignore and since Ronaldo is starting to age already, no big teams might risk gambling a huge amount of money to acquire him. Cristiano Ronaldo is already 37 anyways, he should not get emotional when some teams aren't treating him like his prime years. If there are no big offers from decent teams then I guess we might see one of the best players ever compete in Saudi Arabia just like when David Beckham went to play in the United States. I think Ronaldo would've accepted the offer if Saudi is an open country and not located in a desert. Ronaldo became a free transfer player in the January window, where many teams from various leagues are rumored to want to bring in Cristiano Ronaldo in this winter window. we even know cristiano ronaldo will receive the first offer from a european team for his next career. but if a team from outside Europe comes I think it will be a second consideration for cristiano ronaldo to accept it. For now I think cristiano ronaldo is focusing his energies on qatar world cup. but if he moves to the Arab league, of course, Ronaldo will again break the record as a player with a very large salary offered by the Al Nassr club. but i hope he stays in europe for next season with his new team be it in serie A or Laliga if he wants to leave EPL. |

Embarrassing game for Spain against Japan. Rumors say that the Spanish team lost deliberately, so that they could finish at the second place in their group and face Morocco at the round of 16. Shame on them. I really hope that Spain will be kicked out of the tournament at the quarterfinals. Croatia vs. Japan would be interesting, but I bet that the Croatian team would reach the quarterfinals.
Germany deserved to leave the tournament at the group stage. The German team is missing some key elements, in order to be competitive against France and Brazil, who are the big favorites for winning the World Cup.
I kind of believe what you’re saying about Spain losing on purpose. Because at halftime, the two central defenders for spain made at least 90 complete passes with over 100 touches of the ball. It appear to me Luiz Enrique didn't want to attack after the goal. Seems like he was avoiding a win. They’re simply avoiding to play Croatia. They want to play Morocco and with what I have seen so far, Morocco might shock them in the round of 16. it was luiz enrique tactic in staring at opponents in the next round and it seems he succeeded in doing it because spain will face morocco in the round of 16. but I didn't mention that Spain played unprofessionally, which means they gave in on purpose but Japan did look better in that match. even though spain dominated possession but they failed to make the final solution a goal. Morocco also cannot be underestimated in the round of 16 because they have been quite consistent in this world cup by managing to make big surprises. but in terms of the quality of the players, I think Spain will have an easy road in the round of 16. For today's match, we will soon witness Portugal against South Korea, where in this match I support Portugal to be the winner. |

I agree that Napoli don't need to make any changes in the rest of the season. They are already playing with a system that runs like clockwork. They must be very satisfied with the performances of their players as well. Osimhen is one of the key players of the team so I don't expect Napoli to let him go in January.
They might still go for some players to increase the alternatives in the team of course. They must be able to deal with injury problems as good as possible to prevent a bad form. Otherwise they might have to deal with big issues all of a sudden. For now they are getting close to the title very comfortably.
Napoli manager will do everything possible to make Osimhen remain in the team next year so that they will be able to win some trophies that will make people to rate the team among the best team in the world. Napoli performance in this season made many people to believe that they will maintain this winning attitude till the end of the tournament, because their players are well organized from the beginning of this season till now. I think, Napoli coach will still like to bring in more talented players that will remain on bench in case there is an injury to any player there will not be problem at the moment. Luciano Spalletti knows what he has to do to secure their chances of winning the Scudetto this season. we even have to admit that he is a very great coach this season because he was able to form a team from ordinary players to the strongest team without being filled with famous players. Apart from that, Osimhen, who has spearheaded them this season, has looked so stunning that several European teams really want to bring in Osimhen in the January window, but I'm sure Spalletti can hold Osimhen for staying with Napoli for this season. because Osimhen had two great opportunities with Napoli this season in winning the first trophy in Serie A and the second in the Champions League. I think he will stay with Napoli and all that only needs the support of the Napoli management in convincing Osimhen to refuse the offers that are coming. |

The very bad performance of Germany in World Cup can affect Bayern Munich too. Germany have many players from Bayern and look at their performances in World Cup, it is not good for Bayern when they meet PSG in Champions League.
Of course it will have an impact. First of all, Bayern can train with a full squad much earlier. Then no one will be injured either. But I would not say that the players are now playing worse at Bayern Munich. In the national team, it was not just the palyers from Bayern Munich. Hansi Flick did not manage to form a team from the individual players. to say the least it will affect the mentality of their players but they have plenty of time before facing psg in the round of 16. maybe I don't think Bayern will face big problems to form a squad to perform better when the league returns. indeed the elimination of Germany in this world cup was very surprising because Germany had high quality players in their team. but I think Julian Nagelsmann is a coach who is able to arouse extraordinary enthusiasm in his players, of course he can succeed in bringing Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga to become the most consistent team when the league resumed after the world cup and in the Champions League, Bayern Munich is a very superior team to win the game against psg. |

they’re up against Manchester United player’s like Casemiro who single handedly won Brazil the match, then there’s Rashford and Fernandes who have rediscovered their form. Further keeping this in mind I’m surprised to see that people expect Barcelona to win their fixture’s against Manchester United so easily, because currently I feel that both the team’s have more or less the same advantage.
We are talking about difference in performance of those players in Manchester United and in their national teams. Casemiro is one of best defensive midfielders in many years and he did get good contribution in Manchester United. The same contribution for Bruno Fernandez but the player has a more positive performance in Portugal than in his club last one season. Rashford is a surprise because he did not play too good in United and nobody expected a lot in this World Cup. He started World Cup as alternative player, not in England squad. Now he scored 3 goals and are competing to win the Golden boot of World Cup with Mbappe. In Europa League, Manchester United will play with Barcelona in a play-off match which is surely a very big one. With good forms of these players, chance for Manchester United to win Barcelona is higher a bit. indeed the Manchester United players who are members of the national team performed quite well at this world cup event and it was an astonishing achievement they made with the national team in bringing their country through to the round of 16. We also see the Barcelona players who defended their country in this world cup like de Jong and several other players, they also appeared very impressive because they managed to make a big contribution to their national team. besides that the match between barcelona and manchester united will be presented like a fake final because these two teams are inhabited by star players who are of good quality. but for Manchester United they have just lost Ronaldo, of course this will be a bit of a problem for Manchester United front line when they face Barcelona later. |

I agree with your opinion about Arsenal winning the Europa League this year, but if to be consistent in the League or that, you have to be able to balance and make players consistent, it's very difficult because the stock has to be maximal. wanting to get a champion, it seems that Arsenal must defend the English league to make history, he has not won the premier league for a long time
Actually the two championship trophies this season are very important for Arsenal. Whether it's a trophy in the Premier League or a trophy in the Europa League, because Arsenal have gone through changes and obviously have to be able to show everyone that Arsenal are a winning team in a different competition this season. So that next season Arsenal will be even more reckoned with by their opponents and in terms of team focus or consistency towards different competitions this season, I think Arsenal understand this very well because they also don't want to run aground in the middle of the road just because of problems from player fatigue. arsenal has a big obstacle in the europa league because arsenal challengers in the europa league are the big team teams that were knocked out of the champions league. So it's too early if we consider Arsenal as a strong candidate to win the Europa League trophy. I think barcelona, juventus, ajax and roma are the teams that will disrupt arsenal performance in the europa league. indeed the quality of arsenal this season is quite good but they need to work hard in the europa league to be able to get a trophy. on the other hand juventus is a team that is targeting the europa title after being eliminated from the champions league and barcelona also has the same hope. In fact, we will actually be entertained by the Barcelona vs Manchester United match before we look at the next round. |

It surprises me that the rumors about the transition of Mbappe to Real Madrid are again intensifying. He performs well in the World Cup and he is a good player, but in my opinion he already overstepped the bounds when he played his dirty game trading between PSG and Real so I would be happy if Real just ignored this player. He is too expensive and is too risky a purchase. He is not worth his money.
Mbappe is a player who has almost the same characteristics as Ronaldo who cannot control his emotions properly, Real Madrid must look for other players who have more potential and can work with teams well so as not to make Real Madrid lose money because what Real Madrid needs is not players who get emotional easily but smart to control it and stay calm. I don't think Real Madrid will ever sign Mbappe, considering that he previously turned down Real Madrid's offers and preferred money over a brilliant career with Real Madrid. Mbappe is a genius but also arrogant, we know he is just a new kid in football and he doesn't have to have bad traits if he wants to have a lot of titles. Real madrid are unlikely to chase mbappe for their front line in the winter transfer window after their first bid was turned down by mbappe. maybe for me real madrid will look for another sticker for the second half of the season but that sticker is not mbappe. There are several rumors circulating that Tottenham striker harry kane has been heavily linked with Real Madrid. well, if real madrid is after harry kane then that's a very good decision for them because apart from saving the budget that has to be spent if they chase mbappe. harry kane is a sticker with good quality, but not as lucky as other stickers who have won many trophy. therefore harry kane can achieve all that if he is willing to join real madrid. |
