Of course Al Hilal recruited these two players because they believed they could strengthen Al Hilal in the Saudi League, but it turned out that Neymar could not be expected at all because he was injured and he is a failed Al Hilal recruit. So he had to be dropped from the Al Hilal squad so that Al Hilal can recruit new players from Europe, but even so, Al Hilal is still performing well even without Neymar because Alexsander Mitrovic is able to play very well in the current Al Hilal squad and is able to score many goals for the Al Hilal club.
Meanwhile, Karim Benzema has not made a good contribution to Ittihad, perhaps because of the lack of players who help Benzema in creating opportunities so that Benzema has a little difficulty in scoring goals.

Al Nassr has not been able to catch up because so far Al Hilal has not experienced a defeat at all, while Al Nassr has experienced 3 defeats, so Al Nassr has to wait for Al Hilal to experience the first and second defeats so that the difference between Al Nassr and Al Hilal becomes smaller.

It is indeed challenging to keep a player of Mbappe's caliber, especially if he has big ambition to write his name in football history. I dont think there is the same quality replacement for him, and I think PSG won't scout for young talents, but they will find an establish good player to replace him, That's what PSG do. Kylian Mbappe is not only a world-class talent but also a key figure in PSG's success.

His departure would undoubtedly leave a significant void in terms of attacking prowess, creativity, and goal-scoring ability. Even if the club identifies promising young talents, the pressure to match Mbappe's impact would be immense. PSG's ability to manage the departure of Mbappe is rooted in the experience and managerial prowess of Luis Enrique. As one of the most experienced managers in France, Enrique has a track record of success and adaptability. His strategic approach to team management and tactical flexibility could potentially mitigate the impact of losing a star player like Mbappe. Luis Enrique's managerial acumen offers a hope for PSG fans. The ability to build and mold a team, even in the absence of a superstar, is a testament to Enrique's coaching abilities.

Actually, at the beginning of the season, no one saw it coming that Liverpool would mount at the top of the premier league table towards the end of the year. But that doesn't mean Liverpool wasn't on people's minds to be a major contestant in the Premier League title, after mentioning Manchester City and Arsenal.

In previous seasons, someone couldn't mention the major contestants of the Premier League title without Liverpool being on their list of clubs that can be the winner of the PL title.
Now, Liverpool sits on top of the table, which brings more pressure on them to stick to performing well because any match draw or loss from them, brings their rivals(Aston Villa, Manchester City, or Arsenal), closer to them. That's what they wouldn't like to happen to them this season because in the last two seasons, they missed being the PL title holder because of they allow their rival being Manchester City to come closer to them via points, which later was an advantage to Manchester City to lift the PL title that season(2021/2022).

There is a possibility that he will be sold and there is a possibility that he will not, if Mohammed Salah is sold to Saudi Arabia, Liverpool will lose their goalscoring machine because currently Salah is a very important player for Liverpool, while the current depth of Liverpool's squad has no one who can replace Salah's role. If Liverpool sell him in the midst of their struggle to win the Premier League and European League titles, they will experience difficulties, but if Liverpool has bought a replacement for Salah like Mbappe then it is certain that Liverpool losing Salah will be fine.

As far as I know, Mohammed Salah is not yet interested in going to Saudi Arabia even though the Saudi Arabian club is willing to sign him at a high price because he still wants to be in the European league and compete there. In my opinion, M. Salah is not too old to compete in the European league, and that is certain european players will consider going to Saudi Arabia perhaps when they are 35 years or older and Salah has not yet reached that age.

I doubt Milan's performance. I'm not sure if Milan can win the European League title because in my opinion the clubs that are more favorite are Liverpool and Leverkusen. Indeed, in terms of squad, Milan and Liverpool are superior because they have top players compared to Leverkusen, but the players Leverkusen are able to work together well and compactly so that their solidarity is very high and indeed so far the performance of the Leverkusen players is still extraordinary under the guidance of Xabi Alonso so in my opinion it is possible that Leverkusen will be favorites in winning the title this season, whether it is the league trophy Europe or the Bundesliga.

If you talk about Milan not being very stable, I think that's right, but if you say Liverpool is not very stable, I think you are wrong because Liverpool is still quite stable in the domestic league, even they are in 1st place with only 1 defeat so far, and It is true that Leverkusen is still quite consistent and unbeaten to date and that is a good achievement.

Most teams do not care about cup matches. I think Ajax is one of them. Ajax is normally a much higher quality team than Hercules, but they may have had to face this painful result because they did not care much in the Cup match. While they were eliminated from the cup, Hercules had already gone to celebrate a victory.

This will be a concern for Madrid because when it comes to confidence i
 personally have a strong belief that Madrid can advance to the next round because  of the strength and experience they have in the Champions League but in this case there are some concerns that occur from their internal problems.
 
The situation that I know at the moment for Madrid is that they will not be looking for defender especially defensive center which are currently having problems due to the injury of several player who take time but in his statement Ancelotti said that he still believe in several player like Tchouameni, Carvajal and Nacho who can temporarily replace positions in the defensive center of course this could be good but on the other hand it could backfire on them because after all Acelotti selfishness like this happened when Benzema suffered a recurring injury last season and they emphasizdd that they would not bring the striker even though Benzema  went back and forth for treatment which made Madrid experience problem and lost the Champions League  and La Liga trophies last seasons.

Even though in the H2H Atletico Madrid dominated the victory over Girona, this cannot be used as an excuse because this season Girona appeared with different strengths and was full of surprises. Moreover, Girona sometimes plays alone, of course their game comes out attacking. Players like Tsygankov and Savio will mastermind attacks from the wings and send passes into the penalty box in the hope that Dovbyk can use them to score goals.

I predict that in the course of this match, Girona will take advantage of Simeone's strategy of playing waiting and counterattacking. So I also predict that this match will be won by Girona with a narrow score, because their enthusiasm will be even higher to get three points after seeing Real Madrid get three points after beating Mallorca in the previous match.

It's true that Galatasaray is better, even at the beginning of the season they started the league game with a draw which in my opinion must have been because they needed focus for the European Champions League qualifying game, and speaking of which, next galatasaray's game will be against samsunsport, which despite being a weak team that has not yet won any game in the league and coming into this game with two consecutive defeats, could still make galatasaray lose points if the galatasaray coach chooses to put players who are not main players in this game, because after this game Galatasaray, 3 days later, will have a very important game in the European Champions League

Since the European Champions League games give teams money and in this group where Galatasaray is there are big teams like Bayern and Manchester United, so Galatasaray's coach could focus on beating Copenhagen and a victory against Copenhagen I could put Galatasaray in second place in the group or even in first place in the group, because Manchester United are not doing well this season and have a great chance of losing against Bayern and in this group I see that Galatasaray could have some chance of passing, We will see what squad the Galatasaray coach will put in the game against Samsung

This season things will be more difficult for Galatasaray in terms of winning the league, this is because Fenerbahce is doing well in the league, I know we are still at the beginning of the league, there are only 3 games that have been played, but it seems to me that Fenerbahce he is behaving well and this time he will not repeat the same mistake as last season. but it is strange that in 3 games Galatasaray and Fenerbahce have scored a maximum of 5 goals, they have a not very efficient attack power in each game or it could be because the league is starting

It would indeed still be a significant achievement if Xabi Alonso can elevate Bayer Leverkusen without winning a championship. The ability to lift a team from a disadvantaged position and guide them to a more competitive standing is a testament to his managerial skills. The progress and improvement of the team itself are noteworthy achievements. He's been enhancing the performance of individual players and contributing to their development, it reflects positively on his coaching abilities. A coach's impact on the growth of the players and the team's overall skill level is a substantial marker of success.

If Alonso manages to instill a winning mindset, discipline, and a strong work ethic within the club, it signifies success beyond just winning a trophy. He is building a foundation for sustained success and creating a team that consistently competes at a high level can be more valuable than a one-time championship. Facing the challenges of coaching and steering a team through adversity requires resilience and patience. The support from stakeholders can be a strong indicator of the positive impact he's had on the team.

Setting priority is importance when a club has 3 competitions to play in, especially a club who who lack of squad depth. Napoli and Inter Milan losing to Frosinone and Bologna, respectively, demonstrate that The Coppa Italia is the last in their priority list, because they have Champions league games and Serie A as the main focus. This is why the unpredictability is part of what makes the Coppa Italia captivating for fans.

Roma's serious approach to winning the Coppa Italia this season, despite facing challenges against Cremonese, reflects the competitive nature of the tournament. The fact that Roma had to work hard to overcome Cremonese's lead demonstrates the level of competition in the Coppa Italia and reinforces the idea that teams cannot take anything for granted. Juventus facing Salernitana will go on full strength striving to win, because they aim the Coppa Italia as securing silverware for the season. This concentrated focus may result in a determined and committed performance from Juventus. It's not a good news for Salernitana for sure.

Kane, has become a very productive player in the Bundesliga competition. now, he is the temporary top scorer by scoring 21 goals. it's really not in vain that Bayern brought him from Spurs even though it was a fantastic transfer fee. however, Kane paid for it with his excellent performance, plus he also often contributed with his assists. the Bundesliga competition still has a lot of matches left, which means Kane can add to his goal collection in this competition. also, in the Champions League if Bayern can go as far as possible. currently Bayern Munich is 4 points behind Leverkusen, the squad coached by Xabi Alonso. being 4 points behind should not be a significant obstacle for the German League champions. Bayern is an established team and has a winning mentality in the Bundesliga. that's why, maybe Kane is more interested in joining Munich than teams from the Premier League. plus, Kane also has a dream of winning various titles with Bayern Munich.

This season, they can make it happen. even though they are 4 points adrift of Leverkusen, Bayern has 1 postponed match and 1 meeting at BayArena against Xabi Alonso's squad. in this match, Bayern has the potential to increase the point difference or at least equalize the temporary points tally. what is certain is that if Leverkusen runs smoothly in every match, then there is one way to stop it when these two teams meet. and Bayern Munich has a chance for that, even though the first meeting ended in a draw. the problem is, now Bayern is much tougher. and it is possible that Tuchel will increase the strength of his squad by bringing in new arrivals. in essence, Bayern Munich remains the favorite to defend its title in this competition. and this is a challenge for Leverkusen.

As for Lewandowski, it is very natural for him to choose to leave because he wants to experience competing in another league. it's just that, the problem is, Barcelona often experiences problems, whether it's injured players or a lack of effort by Xavi as Barcelona's head coach. btw, this is just a personal opinion for Barcelona.

It didn't actually happen that they lost a match after Liverpool became champions. Despite winning the first three matches, the team lost the fourth match against Toulouse 3–2. And Liverpool would be group champions if they win or draw against Toulouse. Liverpool's point difference with Toulouse is only 1. If Toulouse had won their last three games, Liverpool would not have won the group. But Toulouse Union drew the match against Saint Gilloise. And so it cannot be said that Liverpool lost on purpose after winning the group.
.
I have no doubt that Liverpool are a strong team. However, the three teams Leverkusen, Roma and Milan must be considered strong in the Europa League platform. Galatasaray and Sporting teams are also not to be underestimated. These teams are basically the main rivals of the Europa League. We usually see the Liverpool team performing in the Champions League

The only thing that is stopping Manchester City from overtaking Aston Villa is because of their outstanding match with Brentford but that will be settled very soon. I didn't expect them to have good form after they fell out of the table and because Haaland has not been active but now it seems Alvarez has took the show with Manchester City on his shoulder making the team proud. Now visualize how they are going to come back strongly if KDB and Haaland was to be active like he use to be in the last few months.

My only fear now about the Premier League is because of Arsenal, they raw 1 of their last 3 matches and 2 losses and this losses happen in a row, now it's difficult to describe the form of Arsenal. They are tired and need to change some players. I think they need more players so that Saka and Jesus can be bench when they have more important matches to play like the Champions League, it will allow them to be productive and have time energies.

Just like Manchester City, who always try to become champions in this competition, in the end they were able to, even winning the treble winner. the same is true for Paris Saint-Germain. unfortunately, City and PSG have many differences. City started by building the foundations early, while PSG with a big star mega project. maybe they think that having star players with big names can bring PSG to achieve its dreams and missions so far. unfortunately, PSG is not supported by a coach who has a track record in this competition. plus, relying too much on the front line. even though, there are several positions that are lacking and what they need.

Now, PSG is handled by a coach who has experience in this event. it's just that Luis Enrique's squad has not yet achieved the game the coach wants. we can prove this simply, if Luis Enrique always tries to rotate and change the pattern of his system. which means, what he implemented was not according to his wishes. plus, the players they have haven't played at the level the coach wants. so, it's natural that Mbappe remains his mainstay. also, Enrique needs some newcomers to complement his needs. now, we are talking about the PSG vs Real Sociedad match. in theory and on paper, PSG is far superior to its opponents. apart from playing at the Parc des Princes, PSG's headquarters. Luis Enrique's squad is also more favored based on the betting market. even though it is temporary, it shows that PSG has a higher probability than Real Sociedad in the next match. whether you win or not, all of that will be determined when this match is held. so, let's wait.

If Xabi ends up bringing Leverkusen to one of the titles, whether it be the Bundesliga or the Europa League, it is certain that he will not necessarily be able to take United in a better direction. if only, Xabi Alonso became the boss at Manchester United. problems that occur at Manchester United, it is often seen that Ten Hag's side is blamed for their team's squad. notification, I'm not a fan of The Red Devil. based on my personal point of view, what is happening at Kudu United is very complex. starting from injured players, limited spending budgets in the last summer transfer market, player and coach disputes, inconsistent players, egoists in the game who want to perform well themselves, and so many problems that Ten Hag has to fix. apart from that, Ten Hag made several blunders by rotating and implementing his system. since the acquisition of United, this team has been hit by a storm of injuries and other problems. for me, as a neutral fan, it's actually not Ten Hag's fault. just like Liverpool last season, where The Red Drop played very badly. now, problems have befallen The Red Devil.

Well, now we are talking from the content of Xabi Alonso. since Alonso took charge of Leverkusen, his name has increasingly become the center of attention, with several clubs wanting his services. one of them was Madrid before Ancelotti extended his contract. also, it is rumored that Alonxo will be targeted by Bayern Munich if Thucel fails this season. for young coaches, Xabi Alonso is able to show that he is competent to be a reliable coach. but Leverkusen and Real Madrid are different, as are The Red Devils. the coach's job is not only to prepare players, implement systems and strategies, but also to be a leader both on the field, outside the field and most importantly in the dressing room. and problems at United, one of which is in the dressing room. we can see that there are several players who put their own ego first. so, Ten Hag's task in the future is to be a firm leader. and in several matches, he has done this by leaving Marcus Rasford on the bench. so the point is, even if Alonso becomes United coach. if the problem is the same, then it will be difficult for this team to get back on track. btw, this is just my personal point of view.

while Sporting will have a complicated game, Porto will have a much easier game against Boavista who in the last 5 games have not managed to at least get a victory, Boavista is going through a moment of crisis, in the last games Boavista is on a streak of 5 consecutive games without winning, while Porto, as always, is on the list of teams at the top of the table and fighting for the title, I highly doubt that they will waste this good opportunity to win and get the 3 points, mainly because they know that Sporting and Benfica will have complicated games that could lose points;

And speaking of Benfica, they will have a complicated game against Arouca, who in the last 5 games had only 1 defeat and come to this game with a sequence of 4 consecutive games without losing, Arouca didn't do well when playing against the big teams. , they lost in the game against Sporting, in a game in which they conceded 2 goals and scored 1 goal, then lost again in the game against Braga in a game in which they failed to score 1 goal and conceded 1 goal, while Benfica comes After a sequence of 5 games without losing, they are in second place, so they will do their best to come out of this game with victory, in my opinion Benfica will win this game

Cagliari is looking terrible at the moment. I can understand why people may think that they are going to go down, it is looking like they are having one of their worst season in recent years, and they just can't seem to be getting into position at all. From defense to midfield to offense, all the parts of the team looks like they are in disorganized situation and not really playing like a single unit, and that makes them look a lot worse.

I understand that we may consider this situation a bit different, but that doesn't mean that we are going to be right, we just need to make sure that we are betting on them to lose, and that will get us a lot of money. Most people think betting on the best teams is great, but betting on Cagliari to lose means you could get some good odds as well. I did that a few times already and made some good return as well, I believe that they will mostly lose until the end of the season and that's why betting like that is good.

After all, Kane has a long contract here at Bayern Munich until 2027 and thus, it is still quite possible for Kane to also end his career at Bayern Munich, who knows. After all, basically Kane is a very productive player and deserves to get lots of trophies but unfortunately, Kane played for a long time at Tottenham which didn't make Kane lucky there at all. Thus, playing in a team as big and good as Bayern Munich means yes, ofcourse Kane has a better chance of getting lots of trophies in the Bundesliga with Bayer Munich or maybe also in the Champions League.

At least, although it is not easy for Bayern Munich to get many trophies, but Kane has played in the right team compared to Tottenham. Therefore, I think Kane will be more consistent in scoring a lot of goals at Bayern Munich because ya, Bayern Munich has good passers in midfield and that will be a factor for Kane to score more goals more easily.

Previously I only heard rumors about Arda Guler potentially making his debut in the Real Madrid vs Mallorca match but then this rumor has now been confirmed by the coach himself (Ancelotti) that this rumor is true. That Arda Guler has indeed recovered and has even participated in full training and Ancelotti also said that he might give Arda Guler playing time to make his debut. But he said that he would only play for a few minutes. But I think that's enough of a start for Arda Guler. I hope this young player can play well and make a good debut even with only limited time.

Real Madrid must win this match so that they remain safe at the top of the standings. Because currently Real Madrid and Girona have the same number of points. So in today's match Real Madrid must be able to collect full points. And hope that Girona does not get full points in the match against Atletico Madrid.
