I wonder if Sancho can perform like when he was in his golden days in Dortmund. Many people including me were expecting him to shine at Manchester United. But he was very far from the expectations. He was nowhere near that. His performance had been awful. As far as I can remember he was bought for around 90 million euros and those monies just went to waste if you ask me. I wonder if he can perform like his golden days. It is very sad to call it his golden days in the very early years of his career.

I think it is very likely what you told me about Donyell Malen would happen.

Inter Milan has some very tough and rough fixtures coming up. In the February they have their match against Inter Milan and then their match against Juventus will be in February as well. So in this time, when they should have been leading their gap, they are dropping points. Juventus has done a very good job defeating Roma to reduce the gap. I think it will be very tough for them to keep up the lead considering the rough schedules and the frequent matches.

The Serie A trophy fight got very interesting after Juventus won that match. I thought Inter was going to win the Serie A for sure. It will be a battle of who can keep up with the schedule.

Markram played a very exceptional innings. But it was not enough at the end. I think where South has lost the match was in the first innings. They were too poor in there. If they had scored 50-60 more runs, then they would have a chance to defend the target in the 4th innings. The match was dominated by bowlers. It was the shortest match in terms of overs bowled. It was a very interesting match to see after all. Mohammed Siraj and Aiden Markram were the players who impressed me the most in this match.

India finally has a victory after the defeat in the World Cup 2019 final. Good for them and their fans.

Hobart Hurricanes actually chased a very easy score to chase. Sam Hain was their star player in this chase. But the credit where it should be given is to the bowlers. Patrick Dooley who did not get any wickets had an amazing economy. The economy of 4.00 is very good even in ODI and he has done that in T20. With this win, they made their place in the 5th position pretty solid. They need to be very consistent to get into the next round after this.

Renegades are not doing pretty well and they will get eliminated. A miracle can only save them now.

I also believe that Real Madrid has the capability to win the Champions League. But Their biggest hurdle in their way will be of course Manchester City and Bayern Munich. Now Ancelotti will remain at Real Madrid till 2026 and he has signed the contract.  I have also heard that they will not sign any new players in the winter transfer window.  I think it will be very hard for them to continue with this very long injury list, many of their key players are injured. But if they can keep up, there will be no issues.

They have very tough schedules in February and very important matches as well. But Real Madrid are no losers and they have the confidence. If they have faith, then everybody should fear them.

I think what Arsenal camp lacks is the faith in themselves. I don't think they understand that they are capable of winning the Premier League. I think it is due to the fact that the players in the team are relatively younger and lack much experience. Arteta had done a very good job for a while but they just started to bottle. I wonder if these were just an accident or if are they bottling for real. Manchester City who were struggling just went up to them with a match to spare. This just shows what can happen in football, especially in the Premier League.

It feels like a Deja vu compared with last season. They just bottled the Premier League last season and gave it to Manchester City. I wonder if they can stay in the top 4 by the way they are playing right now. Things are very concerning for Arsenal fans.

I think the favorites to win this are Juventus, AC Milan. Roma and Fiorentina also have a chance I believe. Currently, Atlanta vs Sassuolo is going on and Atlanta is ahead by 1-0. Atlanta will win this match I believe. Sassuolo cannot be doing much attacking on Atlanta.

I think the determining match will be between AC Milan and Juventus. As for the match between Roma and Cremonese, I think Roma will win clearly. Juventus will also beat Salerentina easily. But this is Copa Italia and weak teams beat strong teams here frequently. So anything might happen.

Liverpool was outstanding against Newcastle yesterday. I mean can you imagine 7+ expected goals?? If they all were converted to goals then they would have destroyed Newcastle. But regardless, they played amazingly against Newcastle and still remain in the top spot of the Premier League.

I think Liverpool would still be okay with him. They got Luiz Diaz, Gakpo, TAA, and others. Mac Allister may come back from injury. So I don't think this might affect them that much. But at the end of the day, it is the premier league and anything can happen in a match.

I mean it is still too early where there are 20 games left and the point gap between the 5 times is 5 points. It is the top flight of Italy football after all. The relegation games get spicy at the end of the season many times. Sometimes the relegation fight gets better than the Championship fight lol.

Salerentina just won a match though it might make them come back. Look at Lyon from Ligue 1, they started winning and now are out of the relegation zone after winning 3 matches in a row. Anything could happen anytime so I believe we should predict later.

Afghanistan will have no problem winning this match. Their players are quite experienced and responsible. 127 runs is not a big target on this pitch. Rahmanullah Gurbaz was dismissed after collecting 20 runs off 14 balls. After 8 overs, Afghanistan's total is 57/1. Afghanistan need to collect 70 runs from 72 more balls to win. Opener Hazratullah Zazai scored 23 runs off 15 balls and Ibrahim Zadran remained unbeaten on 14 runs off 19 balls. This team is strong enough in T20 format. Despite losing the second match, Afghanistan will make no mistake in today's match. 127 runs seems easy for them to collect. The batsmen are batting very responsibly.

UAE surprised everyone by winning the second T20 match. And so in today's match we expected UAE to play well and the match will be competitive. But I don't see any possibility of the match being competitive. UAE team managed to collect 75 runs in 13 overs. But they lost 7 wickets. UAE may not score 100 runs today. It is not possible to defeat a team like Afghanistan by giving such a low target. If UAE batsmen could have given a target like 130-140 then maybe the match would have become competitive. Naveen Ul Haque and Qais Ahmed took 3 wickets each.

Yeah, that is what I said. They need a midfielder. Having Carvalho back won't do much for them as he is an attacking midfielder. They need a midfielder who can replace others when they are unavailable.

Liverpool has Europa League matches coming up and the Premier League fights keep getting fierce. So they cannot afford to lose any points at this point. If they lose any match or point, Aston Villa or Manchester City may get ahead of them and it will be tough for Liverpool to catch up. They need sufficient backups. Now when their main midfielders are injured, I don't think it would be wrong to say that they are in dire need of midfielders. If they want to win both the Europa League and the Premier League, they need new midfielders or somehow make sure the players don’t get injured anymore but it is impossible because considering these schedules, some players are bound to get injured.

That Ten Hag is not a proper standard coach for Manchester United. Manchester United is a big club and plays a sustainable game in the Premier League. So Manchester United should have hired a coach who would give Manchester United players the right way to win any trophy, etc. for Manchester United. Ten Hag's two big mistakes that Manchester United will not be able to recover from are Jordan Sancho and David De Ga, both of whom were removed from Manchester United. David De Gea was replaced by Onana, who plays very wastefully and makes many mistakes, which caused defeat for the team. If they replace Onana with David De Gea, at least they won't make as many mistakes as Onana does. So it means to say that if Manchester United wants to make its club better, then, first of all, it should remove Ten Hag and get an appropriate coach who can organize the club and make perfect gameplay to give victory to the team.

Ten Hag is not a manager who can handle the big players. He can always do good with the small teams because he can control everything about them. But the big players, they don't want to be controlled, they want control and do things on their own. He didn't play Ronaldo at the start of the season and many other players who did well the season before he came back. He bought Antony, who flopped. He bought Onana, and he flopped. Clearly, there are lackings in his plans and behavior.

As I have said many times, Joshua Kimminch is a man of character and leadership. He has been playing for Bayern Munich for almost 10 years now and he has been performing almost all the time. He was Germany's player of the year a few times. That proves his ability. He is only 28 years old and I believe he has a long way to go. I think Bayern Munich would loss if they don’t renew the contract.

As for his transfer to Manchester United, I would not recommend joining a team which is already suffering. They are suffering to get anything right. Another thing is you know, Ten Hag on the other hand is someone who can not manage the big players. Kimminch is a player of character and I don't think he would be getting along with Ten Hag.

Winter transfer window is the time when some teams turn their luck and performance. Liverpool are in dire need of Midfielders right now due to the injury of some of them. But the question is will the owners of Liverpool give them the budget to do so? Because they are known to be stingy and they don't want to pay for players. But now that Liverpool is on top of the Premier League I believe they should spend more.

Carvalho has been called back from Leipzig since he was not getting enough time. Hopefully, that would release some of the pressure that they are going through. But he is an attacking midfielder and Liverpool do need someone to hold down the midfield. After Fabinho and Henderson left, it has been hard for them to keep up with the injuries.

Kimminch is a player of character and leadership, and I don't think Bayern should let him go because he has not performed well for one season. He was the player of the year of Germany a few times and he proved his ability with Bayern Munich many times. Kimminch’s age is only 28 and he still can develop his game. He has been playing for Bayern Munich for almost 10 years and now that clearly says that he has a say in the dressing room. Even though he is not performing with the ball, he can definitely help the younger ones perform. But nonetheless, he is a great player who should not be let away.

I don't think Barcelona can afford Kimminch to be honest. They have salary issues every time they sign a new player and I won’t be surprised if it happens this time. As for Manchester United, I agree with you. United needs to spend their money wisely now because they have wasted so much recently and they have flopped. Antony, Onana, Hojlund etc.

It feels like today Afghanistan is not going to be able to win this match. Because they still need 63 runs from 27 balls. And they only have four wickets in hand. That is not going to be enough for sure. So unless Afghanistan is able to pull off a miracle here, I don't think they are going to win this match. I have to say that the target given by the UAE was not very big, to be honest. But Afghanistan lost wickets at crucial moments. That has made them come to this unfavorable situation.

If teams like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are still interested in him, then that is great news for him. He was falsely accused and then had to stay away from professional football for a long time. But as you have said, he can make a comeback in football if he works hard enough since he got the talent.

This season he is playing for Getafe and scored 4 times and assisted thrice which is not bad for someone who took a break from professional football for about a year. So we can easily say he has great potential. Barcelona are buying cheap players due to their financial problems, so I think Barcelona might actually buy him.

I don't think Chelsea have a chance to qualify for the Champions League. Chelsea's performance has been erratic. More importantly, Aston Villa, Tottenham and West Ham have been performing more consistently than Chelsea. So even if Chelsea come back on track and perform well, they will not be able to finish in the top four of the table unless Aston Villa, Tottenham and West Ham drop points in succession. My guess is that at the end of the season we will probably see Chelsea in seventh or eighth place in the table. Chelsea will not be able to make it into the top six.

You are right. Both teams played well. I would  say juventus were lucky so  they managed to get 3 points. Although  I expected to see the  victory of Juventus in this match.  Because Juventus' squad is stronger  than Roma's in comparison. However  if we had seen a better  performance from Lukaku in this match, maybe the result  of the match would have been different. Dybala's performance was good enough in this match, but Lukaku did not play well. We didn't see much of Lukaku's presence in the entire match either.
