The cute news of Salah's injury is going to be a set back for Liverpool team and an advantage for others who are also top contenders for the Europa this season, even Leverkusen also have similar case with victor Boniface but I'm their case they have got just but a little dependence on victor than Liverpool does on Salah.

AC Milan is the only top team in the Europa currently with an even team because even Roma is currently having their own fair share of the whole issues as they are battling with the change of coach and trying to get along with their coach so the team gets back to their form, so it's very likely the round of sixteen will definitely going to be a bit though and maybe below expectations because the top teams at this point are having one thing or the other to battle with but then I still trust Liverpool and Leverkusen to be able to maintain their frame and get the best out of the Europa this season.

Yes, I think Leverkusen deserves to be in first place at the top of the Bundesliga standings compared to Munich, that's why the match against Leipzig will be the answer to who is the best at winning the title this season. If we look at the previous meeting, Leipzig was defeated by Leverkusen 3-2, I seeing how Leverkusen has played consistently since the start of the season until now, that's why many people favor Leverkusen over Leipzig, playing at Leipzig's home ground there may be difficulties that will make it difficult for Leverkusen to get full points, but it seems that Xabi Alonso has definitely prepared the right strategy to face Leipzig later.

I don't think much about the results of the match as long as Leverkusen can maintain their consistency they will definitely easily win the title this season to break Munich's dominance as defending champions in the Bundesliga, winning against Leipzig is the most important thing for them to do now, because if they Losing points certainly gives Munich room to approach Leverkusen or shift them from the top of the standings, considering that Munich has an easy opponent, namely Bremen.  

If Kylian Mbappe exits Parc des Princes stadium, ofcourse the game performance of PSG will decline because there are quite extensive energy of the team that would dropped most specifically the frontlines of PSG. If he leaves, PSG president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Luis Enrique will come together to solve another problem and bring out swift solutions, when I mean solutions it indirectly means PSG will sign potential forwards that would stand a chance of replacing Kylian Mbappe. It's high time the Frenchman make his final decision regarding the moves and trends because it's becoming obvious, it's always on the top trends of football news which have turned to become more tiring to read the news prior to Kylian Mbappe.

Considering the Barcelona squad this season, I think Barcelona has good squad depth and in fact, I think the quality of the Barcelona squad last season and this season is not much different . But unfortunately, this season Barcelona have really suffered a decline in performance because ya, Barcelona this season do not have a good chance of getting trophies in all competitions. But indeed, at least Xavi still looks fine there and not bad at all and therefore, it is still not worth it if Xavi is fired because yes, in fact Xavi can still work well to restore Barcelona's performance.

It is on and the current odds on Inter Milan to win are x1.6 and on them to beat Lazio Rom x5.7, so it say who is the favorite here. In midfield Calhanoglu and Mkhitaryan are in the starting line-up and the two have so much experience, they will have many good situations today and prepare good chances. And also bet on a goal from Lautaro Martinez today, he has i think a lot today. A few minutes ago Thuram had a very good chance to make it 1:0, he didnt manage to score a few meters from the goal, oh dear. The first few minutes and it is powerplay time. If Inter win today, the motivation will take for many games in Serie A.

Hojlund is at least trying to be better in the Premier League as well which is what I like in him. He doesn't just take a stroll on the pitch in the matches he play. 

When it comes to the fee amount he was transferred for it is the truth that it is a big one. He was transferred for 74 million euros according to Transfermarkt. But the board must be also aware of the fact that they need to be patient about him. He is only 20 years old now. Comparing him to Haaland wouldn't be fair as there aren't many examples like Haaland in today's football.    But in the long run I believe that Hojlund will also be a solid scorer.

Manchester united is always making another shock movement.

People can see how manchester united was making some movements to revamp the defensive line. Manchester united needs to sell a lot of players. I can't even believe it finally ten hag was aware with the problem owned by manchester united. It was showing that if manchester united is willing to sell a lot of its defenders. I do support this caused by manchester united knows if poor defenders become the major problem owned by the club. Im quite happy by seeing ten hag finally listened to the fans. Im wondering who will be put for sale very soon.

Some defenders have been targeting by ten hag and im sure that manchester united will able to perform better with all of those new defenders soon. The only problem whether ten hag will pick the right players for the club. We do know that how shitty ten hag when it comes to players transfer.
I will not blame him if he will make the good transfers but i will blame him if ten hag's new players will become another flop like onana and mount. Enough is enough for him.
The management shall give him ultimatum if he will not able to perform better than before.

This is going to be the most important match for the Bayer Leverkusen because if they are going to win then surely we are going to have long way to for the opponents for bringing them down, and they will be surely dominated throughout the season but in case of the lost or draw then surely we will have Bayern Munich as the leader and most chances then no team will be able to bring them down from their top spot as their squad is one of the best and their hungriness for the double will be also had good booster.

Even we have good performance for the Leipzig against Bayer Leverkusen, but their current performance can surely bring some positive hopes for the visitors to go with their full three points in this match.

Failure of De Rossi? He has just been signed for the manager position by Roma. Isn't it too early make such assumptions about him? I know that he came after a great manager like Mourinho. But it doesn't mean that De Rossi can't be more successful than Mourinho at the same time. Nobody can know about that.

I would like to give a great example to this situation. After Villas-Boas period at Chelsea Di Matteo was brought to the position in the 2011/12 season. Who could have thought that he would win the Champions League title with Chelsea in his interim manager period there? 

I don't say that De Rossi would do the same but I mean it is quite possible for him to do better than Mourinho at the same time.

Buying star players and building great squad depth is part of the process for a team that wants to win the title. PSG did it right and they have gone through that stage, but that doesn't necessarily make them successful in the Champions League.

So far PSG have dominated Ligue 1 and that is part of their success in building squad depth so far. The Champions League is a difficult competition, so it is not easy to win even if the squad is good. However, PSG qualified and fought in the Champions League final several seasons ago even though in the end they lost 1-0 to Bayern Munich. It was part of an experience they must not repeat if they qualify for the finals next season.

Manchester City have De Bruyne back and soon Haaland will recover as well. Liverpool really need Salah as soon as possible from now on as things will get much more heated about the league title competition.    Klopp must be hoping Egypt not to make it to the finale of AFCON. He stated on an interview that he wanted Salah back quickly as well.  

If Egypt reach the finale of the tournament then Salah will miss two big games which are going to be against Chelsea and Arsenal. These are both Premier League games so it would be a huge problem for Liverpool. In this case Manchester City can benefit from their weakness.

Chelsea is about to put their player, Armando Broja for sale.
There are some teams like Wolverhampton, West Ham, and Fulan that want to hire Armando Broja from Chelsea and buy this player, but Chelsea didn't show any reactions and they didn't say anything about their player.
But recently Chelsea said they could sell this player for 65 million euros which is a huge amount of money, however, Armando Broja is a young and talented player.

When it comes to mastering the playing pattern of an impressive team and finding the best way to stop them, Diego Simeone is simply one of the best managers in modern day football that can perfectly do that and I can't just help but clap in admiration for his tactical experience and approaches to important games like that of their last night game in the Spanish Copa Dey Rey round of 16 game against Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid players played in that game like their life depended on it and were rewarded with a win deep in the the extra time of the game.

For the second time this season, Atletico Madrid have faced Real Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitan stadium and Diego Simeone's men have been victorious in those two occasions.

We all know Jose Mourinho is not a coach to stay jobless and without a team for a long time, he usually gets interesting offers and even if they fired him from Roma but still, he is still close to joining another team.
Mourinho's agent, Jorge Mendes started talking about this coach with Aurelio De Laurentiis and there is a high possibility of seeing an agreement between Aurelio De Laurentiis and Mourinho which means Mourinho can be the next coach for Napoli.
Since they lost Luciano Spalletti they couldn't find a good coach and maybe Mourinho can save them from this situation.

I consider it the most exciting game so far in the competition because of the many goals scored from both sides. Games like these give the AFCON a high rating because of the world class goals. Ghana were focused on attacking because they understood the strength they had in front with Kudus, they failed to remain defensive in their thinking like the Super Eagles were. Egypt lost Salah and that will be a big concern for them in this competition for very important games to come, and for Liverpool who would not want him to return injured.

Senegal against Cameroon today, two big countries in the African football, and I expect a more exciting game than Ghana against Egypt.

With the way Barcelona plays, it would be a miracle for them to make it to the semi-finals of the champions. They do not play well at all. They concede too many goals. How can a team like Barcelona be trailing 2-0 to Madrid in under 10 minutes? A defense like that doesn't go far in the Champions League.
The only chance they have against Napoli is that Napoli is also in a very bad phase of their own.

Barcelona's problems are not very big IMO me. All they have to do is stop conceding goals and start scoring goals. That's all they need to figure out how to do.

If Xavi doesn't win any trophy this season, I believe he should be sacked. He has done so well for Barcelona by taking them out of where Koeman put them, but I don't think he's the man to make them a fearsome side in Europe. They need someone else for that.

There might be a chance for Bayern Munich to close the gap up with Leverkusen a little more at this weekend by the way. Because Leverkusen have a really tough away game against Leipzig on paper. The thing that might help Leverkusen stay one step ahead of Leipzig can be Leverkusen's great form and Leipzig's recent point losses in a row.

There is a clearly visible downgrade in Leipzig's performance for two game weeks. But as this is a big game for them I don't know how they would prepare themselves. I hope Leverkusen win this somehow because Bayern Munich would surely destroy Werder Bremen on one hand. 

On Saturday, Arsenal host Crystal Palace in the English Premier League and a win in that game will draw them level with third placed Aston Villa and second placed Manchester City who currently have have played the same number of games with Arsenal. They're currently five points behind league leaders Liverpool having played the same number of games and that means that mathematically, Arsenal are still very much in contention for the English Premier League title this season.

But personally, I don't consider Arsenal as a major title contender for the league title this season and that's because of their inconsistent results and performances. I'll be happy if they prove me wrong by winning the league title at the end of the season but that I think will be a very difficult one for Mikel Arteta's men

Osimhen just signed a new contract at Napoli, that's to say Napoli has offered him a salary increase. It could also mean that Osimhen is not that interested in playing for Money. As things stands now it's unclear if Osimhen is ready to leave Napoli this season because of the new contract he just signed. I don't even think Manchester City will be ready to sell their most valued asset to real Madrid.
