Therefore I would be still satisfied even if one team manage to stay in the title rivalry with PSG for a long time.
Who wouldn't be satisfied if that happens, football is all about competition and i will like to see some of it in the French league, we all do, though i don't feel it will happen this season, psg are very strong and from my prediction they will be champions again, their strength surpasses that of all other clubs in France. I don't know when next we will watch an entertaining title race in the French league, that is what non-psg fans will love to see, competition, it may take long but i feel it will happen, just as juventus haven't won the Italian league in two years now, that seemed impossible before. Unfortunately something like this is something that is difficult to happen in Ligue 1. PSG really excel in every way and indeed it will be difficult to make a new breakthrough even as Lille did in the 2020/2021 season. Even though there are still some opportunities, if you look at the readiness and the pattern of the game being carried out, it is clear that this is something that tends to be impossible to do. |

I can't believe Galatasaray just signed another 35 year old striker. Didn't they learn from their past mistakes? Dries Mertens was a top class striker but he past his prime and he's at the end of his career. This may be his last big contract and from what I've heard he will get big money from this deal. Galatasaray can't pay 4 million Euro per year under this economic circumstances. I hope they won't do a mistake like that again. No need to go very far, just remember Falcao. Galatasaray is not playing in European competitions this season and only has a claim in the league, they would make a huge mistake if they took such a financial responsibility.
It's still a hot rumor right now but I quite agree with you even though he is one of the great players but at his age it will definitely be a bit of a drag for him. btw I saw a tweet from Fabrizio Romano also saying that Lucas Torreira has officially joined Glatasaray after the completion of the clause with Arsenal. |

It looks like it will be, but I don't see their tempo going to change. Perhaps what is increasing is the increasingly balanced competition. That will make the match even more interesting. Perhaps at the moment I see Rome to move up the fold better. They are very active in the transfer market. It's possible that they can get into the top 5 at the end of the season. But to guess the champion will still be difficult.
Hope that can happen because Roma seem to be more active in making moves in the transfer window this time and this is a good thing because it shows that they are more intent on making a breakthrough now. Actually, in this case I want to see Atalanta's Underdogs again to rise because last season they were not like the previous seasons which always troubled the opponent. Right now, things are very interested in Italian League as Juventus is having some trouble after Paul Pogba injury even it's not going to have big impact because they have few good replacements but still an issue for them with few more changes are in progress but still they are strong enough for challenging inter and AC Milan for staying at the top with now race is open for later positions. Roma is doing some good in transfer window, and they are in strong position with hoping for having good changes in fortune as well Napoli and Atlanta both are in not good shape but still can give them challenge for fourth spot which is interesting because Atlanta was good in last season start but sadly in last few rounds they choke and lost their position now we have to wait for their performance can they give challenge, or they are down and out. Currently Milan have problems that can not be solved easily due to carelessness in managing their finances. I might be a little doubtful of Milan now even for the fight for 1st and 2nd place because they apart from having financial problems they are also faced with Zlatan's injury there which must have an impact on several things because we know last season Zlatan was one of the protectors for their young players and he is a good motivator. |

Do not underestimate Juventus just because Pogba will not play for several weeks. They did not have any problem in his position last season because there are some players such as Zakaria Dennis, Locatelli, Arthur, McKennie who can play in Pogba's position. I do not think it is necessary for them to search for new player in this position, they can just use the available players while waiting for Pogba to be fully recovered from his injury.
Arthur will probably leave they are in advanced talks with Valencia. Juventus according to rumors will go for Parades from PSG. The deal about them is still not very lively at the moment although there are some who say it is just a matter of time but there is still no clarity on this. On the other hand, actually Arthur is also a little difficult if he decides to stay and it would be better if he leaves even though this has to go back to Juventus as the decision maker. |

All this attitude from Christiano Ronaldo are coming up because Ronaldo never had intention to remain in Manchester United, it will be too bad if Ronaldo should decide to do things on his own. I know Ronaldo to be a legend, a good player but if he continues not to play for Manchester United with his clear mind , it will really affect his carreer this remaining year to retire.
People are always very quick to criticize players, I believe the issue of leaving the stadium before the end of games is not something new and Ronaldo is not the only player in the club that leaves before the end of an ongoing game. Let's go back to the previous season Manchester United had under Ralf Rangnick, we saw Ronaldo leave the stadium after being subtituted and he was still playing for United so people shouldn't link that to him forcing a move out of the club it doesn't feel right. This is just trivial news that is exaggerated. But if you look at the actor there who is being reported on, it is quite natural because it is a Ronaldo and his news about anything will surely highlight him. Regardless of what this actually does, it still doesn't prove anything, although there are indeed many who attribute this to anything that stems from his move to an unclear club. |

Between having a player like Kerem, adding in Oliveira, Seferovic, Dubois, and now talks about Mertens and Torreira? Galatasaray certainly have two paths this year. Either they are going to have a big trouble with chemistry because getting this many new players would always feel a bit tough and players may not get along very well. Or they are going to be one of the leading candidates for the championship.
I guess that it will probably be the championship route because they have a new manager who has to prove himself and he will try to do the best he could and will work hard and make players work hard to get there which means many times passed together training to get better chemistry too.
Galatasaray are really making their transfers like they don't care about the coherence in the team. They are just focused on improving the squad quality at the moment to be able to become more competitive this season. By the way they are going to spend an amount like 20 million euros at least for Torreira. In my opinion, this is too much for him. He is a decent player but Galatasaray don't have a huge transfer budget in the end. They should use their money more efficiently. They realized last season they were under them like they were being cursed everywhere and now they clearly want to fix that even though it costs a lot of money indeed. Their condition is the same as Barcelona in La Liga who are trying to make their squad better instantly by immediately buying some players in the hope that this will be good next season. |

Yeah the main target with signing star players is for the Champions trophy I already realized, unfortunately last season Sergio Ramos rarely played due to injury, but now he will perform optimally under Galtier tutelage hopefully their health is good so they can go smoothly to trophy. Every match will be difficult in the Champions League, when the core squad gets injured.
He is still very much needed now despite his age but indeed when it comes to experience it is clear he has something more than some of the players there. Sergio will probably still be in the same role as before I think unless Galtier has more fun for this player. Sergio Ramos is still able to play in Europe's elite competition even though he is not young anymore, his experience while playing for Real Madrid can provide a balance in the PSG defense. Last season he spent a lot of time on the bench due to an injury, now he is ready to help PSG to protect PSG back line from attacks by opposing teams. Galtier can count on him in crucial matches, his presence at the back can provide motivation for PSG's young players, maybe he is not as strong as he used to be, but his experience can help PSG to achieve their goals this season. This is not an exaggeration for Galtier especially if you see now in some of their pre-season matches Galtier has often played him with a three-back scheme with Marquinhos and Diallo as partners for Sergio. This is a very good start for him but indeed he also has to be careful because his current age will definitely be a little different for his legs so fitness must be really maintained. |

The match has ended and interestingly in this match They can win even in the midst of onslaught and are forced to continue to defend.
Currently, if you look at their playing conditions, they are actually still not very good in the game because they still often make passing mistakes and lose possession of the ball which makes it difficult for them to develop the game.
Luckily their counterattack was really good at this so they managed to win.
Galatasaray-Fiorentina match ended in a 2-1 at yesterday. Kerem Aktürkoğlu and Emre Akbaba one scored, also Seferoviç two assisted. İn additiın to, Galatasaray strengthened their midfield by transferring Norwegian midfielder Fredrik Midtsjö. There are rumors that Galatasaray wants to transfer more midfielder. In this match they continued to be forced to survive throughout the game. Even if they look pretty good there but I still feel they have a lot of gaps in this. Especially with their low ball possession. As for the players they have to be extra hard now because last season they played so badly so it's quite natural they made some additions to keep them stable for the league to come next season. |

with that i think manchester united should have hired more players who were good at scoring goals, this problem of theirs in attack will make them not finish even in 4th position Did Ronaldo play in all those games? I think Ronaldo can help Manchester United in goal productivity and I don't think they need more players there. Manchester United need to improve their defensive system and midfield. In attacking positions I think they are good but defense is always a problem especially if you look at it last season. In my opinion, it doesn't take many goals to win but 1 goal is enough but they have to have a very good defense. I still feel they actually have some good defenders (except the captain) although there is a bit of uncertainty here because they don't really fit together. But in this case maybe for the anchor midfielder there Ten Hag needs to make something more as a Tandem than Martinez on the other hand for Martinez also he has to start extra in trying because indeed he has to adapt quickly now. |

Messi and Neymar pick up where they left off in Paris Saint-Germain. Even without Mbappé. It was remarkable that the match was played in Israel, while Paris Saint-Germain won the Super Cup for the 11th time. Why is the French Super Cup being played in Tel Aviv?
Anyway, PSG showed that they are ready for the new season. It looks like they will get a comfortable championship this season as well.
They played very well in this match and this clearly shows that the difference for clubs in Ligue 1 is still too far in terms of the game and the quality of the players. It's nice to see Sergio score in this match because at the moment he seems to have disappeared from my radar in scoring goals and now he is playing quite well. |

Boring game if you ask me mate.
Spanish sides was much better than Manchester UTD.
Amad scored from a rebound shot of Telles
Did you see the frustrated face from Erik in the first half
As you said, this match was quite boring but on the other hand it doesn't really matter I think considering that in this case MU is dominated by low-level players and young players there because if we look at only Varane, Eriksen and Ronaldo who are old enough there. I think it's still good enough for them regardless of the result but I feel there's some good talent there that's showing. |

Barcelona was selling more television broadcast rights to get more funding. I would not feeling surprised to see that if there are so many questions about the financial of barcelona. The financial of barcelona can't be called as good as it was before. It must have sold more rights to pay off the debt and buying the players.
They are actually very concentrated on the upcoming season and indeed I think this is a step that is too much because they sold almost half of their stake to get fresh funds and can bring in a few players now in the hope of returning as soon as possible for next season. Their target does not seem grandiose for next season because with the current composition the title is the target they must get. |

I think AC Milan with the old squad means no big changes in this summer window already strong enough for next season let alone they have got Divock Origi for next season. I believe they can defend the title Scudetto.
In this case I see something else, They stay with their squad doesn't mean they feel strong enough, but they can't do much there. Currently their condition is not good from a financial point of view due to their poor financial management in the previous season so that even if they want a big change they will not be able to do it. |

True, he is now in danger of missing the World Cup due to the problem he is having with his knee at the moment.
At least an estimated 3 months there he will have to pull over and even then if their plan goes well.
This is clearly a loss that is still very much felt because Pogba himself is expected to be one of the parts that lift Juventus now especially in midfield but with his injury now then that hope must be postponed until he is fully healed.
This is very sad for Paul Pogba and also a big loss for Juventusa and the French national team as he will miss the Qatar World Cup which will be played in the next few months. Psychologically this will affect the mentality of players who fail to play in world football events due to injuries and also the expectations of fans and also the Juventus team who really hope that Pogba can lift Juventus' performance next season. but in this way I hope that after recovering from his injury Paul Pogba can return quickly to his best form even though it will be a bit difficult and regarding the midfielders maybe Juventus should immediately find a replacement before the new season starts. Obviously this will be a disappointment for pogba and also almost all parties both Juventus and France but there is some news that may indeed be a little better because there are some who say the possibility of him appearing in the world cup is still there even though it is a little bit slim. I actually hope he can recover before the world cup is over but if this is really a bigger risk then he really has to bury his desire to be there and focus on healing. |

My take on Memphis is that, he doesn't suit Barcelona any bit, he was lucky cause of his Ronald Koeman who made the switch possible, he should move to Juventus.
Depay has been already linked with Juventus for 3 years now and... he will never be here in Italy. Juventus really have only 1 target player for that position and it is Zaniolo, they already have the deal with the player they now need to find the deal with As Roma. With the presence of Zaniolo in the Juventus squad, maybe Depay indirectly will not be ogled, I think. At the moment there are some rumors about Zaniolo and Juventus having reached an agreement even if only personally but this is clearly a very good prospect because it is possible that a loan deal with Roma regarding Zaniolo could be realized very well in the near future. |

Liverpool won the title but werent better much as the results says so, Man city had a lot of chances and played really good the entire match but Haaland played a really bad game on his debut with missing a lot of good chances that costed Man City the win
Liverpool's attempted kick lead by 1 more but City's Shot on target is superior. Statistically they are quite balanced but mentally City faltered at the end of the second half and disaster came when the Penalty was there. This leaves them a bit loose and obviously this is something that needs to be fixed. In the end I congratulate Liverpool for the umpteenth time. |

In the second half, Beşiktaş won the ball with Gedson's beautiful press, Weghorst brought the ball to the nets with the ball bouncing off the goalkeeper. Beşiktaş-Sampdoria match ended 1-1. In the first half, there was a besiktas sleeping in the match, they woke up a little after conceding the goal from the midfield, at least in the second half there was a better Beşiktaş. There are still some deficiencies in the team, interventions are necessary here.
They did have more initiation in the second half and that was evidenced by their game which started to be brave in controlling the ball. But in this case they still need to change their attacking line a bit because if we look from this match they made a lot of attempted kicks but only 2 were on goal and this clearly needs improvement. |

After Kim Min-jae signed for Napoli officially Fenerbahce started to look for a new defender as a replacement. According to latest rumours, Arsenal centre-back Pablo Mari is a candidate for them now. He was on loan at Udinese last season and played in 15 games in the Serie A. He scored 2 goals as well. He isn't an important player for Arsenal now so this transfer wouldn't be much hard for Fenerbahce. However we don't know if he can play strongly as Kim Min-jae.
Of course it would be nice to sign a player from Arsenal. But he is not a good player to fill the place of the player who left the team. However, Fenerbahçe needs a good player to play in this position, it would be good to add a player that Arsenal will not care much about anymore. Actually, it would be better if they could find one of the Turkish football players, but they were a little late  Pablo Mari is still doing pretty well in the 2020/2021 season but due to injuries and Ben White he doesn't really have a place at Arsenal and even though he was loaned to Udinese in the second half of the season and has returned he's still not included in Arteta's plans. Obviously this is a good opportunity to hijack this player but maybe in this case Fenerbahce might have to pay a little extra because if I'm not mistaken Milan are also linked with this player. |
