One player I'd love to see is Boniface and is really bad to always not see him partner with V. Osimhen. Their combination would have been bloody but injury have a way of keeping some of the best players off the game of football.
Now the work load would be on V. Osimhen alone, what if (God forbid) something happens to him just like it happened to Boniface how would the Eagles manage the striking department? I just hope they get things easy with him since he's the only number 9 we have.

2 goals in the first half and 3 goals in the second half really made Inter Milan look very strong in today's match. Monza can only reduce the goal difference by scoring 1 goal. And in the end Inter Milan won with a score of 1-5. And it automatically embarrassed the hosts (Monza) in front of their own supporters.

But in this match I think there were a lot of violations because the game was very tense. The home team was also able to dominate ball possession in this match. But they still lost in attack effectiveness and shooting accuracy. So they still lost by a big score. Monza even created gaps in their own defense when they were too focused on finding gaps in Inter Milan's defense. Since last season, Inter Milan has actually been very strong in defense. So it's not surprising that Monza is having a really hard time in this match.

Manchester City vs Newcastle United

Manchester City won the match with Newcastle United 3-2 in tonight's match. However, Manchester City was trailing 2-1 against Newcastle United in the first halftime game. After Newcastle's positive play I thought it would be very difficult for Manchester City to put pressure on Newcastle. But a 74th-minute goal from Kevin de Bruyne leveled the match in the second half as Manchester City worked hard.  Manchester City controlled the ball for most of the second half. As a result, Newcastle United failed to hold on to their lead. Manchester City scored the third goal in the last period of the game ie 90+1 minutes to confirm the victory of the match. Congratulations Manchester City for tonight's match

Why not Arsenal?  I know the team have been facing tough times with losing on three consecutive occasions in the English league, still, they stand a better chance of getting through to the finals.
Manchester city may be abuzzed by the return of KDB, but am sure more matches prior to their UCL fixture will focus and speak of his performance having returned and facing the pressure to reproduce instant results.

I still can't believe that Villarreal lost so badly against Las Palmas in today's match and Las Palmas did not hesitate to punish them with 3 goals without reply. I initially thought this could be their first win at the start of the year and even though this is an away game at least they are still favored enough to win. But it is true that Las Palmas, which has just been promoted this season, has a better record than Villarreal.

So I think this defeat is quite reasonable and Las Palmas also moved up to 7th place and that is a good result so far. Meanwhile, Villarreal is actually sinking further down the table and after Sevilla it is possible that Villarreal will be the team that is feared will be relegated this season. I quite hope that Villarreal can start making improvements before it is too late.

Leverkusen scored in the injury time of the match, they were lucky to win the match because I was expecting a draw since Augsburg were able to maintain and hold the game to the 90 minutes without coma goals, but the pressure from Leverkusen helped them to win the match because they dominated the match. Anyways congratulations to Leverkusen for maintaining their unbeaten run and their top position in the Bundesliga table, they keep given Bayern Munich the a tough competition which I believe they will maintain because they play like champions.

About Roma I can just say that Mourinho has an incomplete job to do in the Europa League.    They were so close to winning the title last season but because of having problems with the referee also they lost their chance to Sevilla instead. At least Mourinho believes that as he was very angry at Anthony Taylor back then it the finale. 

But can they do this time? I have big doubts about that as long as Leverkusen and Liverpool teams are present. Roma will need to have Lukaku and Dybala both in their games from now on to increase their chance. Because I can clearly say that these are the most crucial players for the team this season. 

I don’t think that the likelihood of such a final is high - firstly, the teams can meet at earlier stages of the tournament, and secondly, they are not favorites. Take a look at the bookmakers' odds on who will reach the final:

Manchester City 1.96

Fc Bayern Munich 2.58

Real Madrid 3.19

Arsenal 3.68

Now the quotes are a little distorted because City have the easiest opponent of all possible and we can say that City are already in the quarter finals, but in any case they are the favorites of the tournament and in order for us to see the final without them, someone has to knock them out. I would like to believe that someone will succeed.

The game will surely be in the favour of Manchester city no matter what Newcastle united will going to display because, the hunger for Manchester city to win the game is in them despite they are meeting strong team today but it will not end up in draw 0:0.

 This is the home of Manchester city and they know how to use their home to play in a way their opponent will not have the luck to secure a single goal from Manchester city despite they are still facing the problem of injuries but they still have some players that will face Newcastle united and beat them 2:0 to achieve the 3 points.

I predict that Werner will not experience problems with Tottenham's game. I also don't want to say he will be very successful with Tottenham even though I know Postecoglou is a coach who admires his figure.

When Werner becomes a player admired by the coach, there is great potential that he will be entrusted to appear every match and for Werner that is a good opportunity.
It was different when Werner was in a Chelsea uniform, who was not among the coach's first choice of players, making it difficult for him to prove himself because he didn't have many opportunities to play.

If Werner lands at Old Trafford, Manchester United, I will be very happy because he is a player I have admired since he has not yet played with Chelsea.

Now we are just 24 hours away from the 2024 first El Clásico which is going to play at KSU Stadium Riyadh in last four matches we have 2 wins for the both teams and things are looking very interesting with Barcelona is hitting with internal issues and injuries and Real Madrid is looking at the top with their impressive performance in La Liga and Champions League even prediction is not easy for this match with this is anybody game but still now as things are going into Real Madrid favor look like they will be going to have another win against their rivals.

Xavi and his players are trying their best for having better results which are never been easy but still they are managing amazing stuff and Lamine Yamal entry is also good with on right time as well for the Barcelona which is hurt badly due to Raphinha injury.

Have you noticed how Palmer has been performing since the day he joined Chelsea? He has been showing an incredible level of performance until now.    He scored the winner against Fulham also. He just contributes in every way (not only goals but also assists). It is like he started to shine after leaving Manchester City. Guardiola tried to stop him from leaving but no benefit.



Honestly Chelsea made me nervous in the second half as they started to give more chances to their competitor. They should have played much more dominant than that in this half. Fulham can be a really dangerous competitor when you let them play more comfortably.    Thankfully they couldn't score.

In today's match between Chelsea vs Fulham, Chelsea team players managed to score 1 goal after a lot of hard fighting. On the other hand, Fulham team players did not score any goal even after trying hard to score in today's match. However, Fulham team players played well in the first stage. Half time.  Later, if the players of Fulham team could have scored a goal, today's match could have been drawn, but today's match was lost due to not being able to score any goals.

Roma without Dybala worries me. His injury is unfortunate, especially against AC Milan at San Siro. Yes, that's hard. I think Mourinho must be innovative defensively. Roma will likely play defense and aim for counterattacks without Dybala. It may not be exciting, but it could work

Yeah, their form has been poor lately. That's salting the wound. Mourinho's absence is another setback. He may change the game on the sideline. Football can surprise you. Roma's underdog status may inspire them. If they want to upset, they must go deep. It's unlikely, but stranger things have happened

I'm curious about whether we will see Jadon Sancho starting to play by the Darmstadt game today. If he is registered to the league squad before this game then we should be able to see him. However he would probably be on the bench first. Actually if I were in Terzic's place I would have started this game with him in the starting lineup.

Because Sancho is already very familiar with this team and the environment around here. He shouldn't have any problem with adaptation in the end. In addition to that Dortmund would really make use of his talent a lot as soon as Terzic starts using him.  

Chelsea v Fulham

Chelsea — Petrovic; Gusto, Disasi, Thiago Silva, Colwill; Caicedo, Fernández; Sterling, Palmer, Gallagher(C); Broja.

Fulham — Leno; Tete, Adarabioyo, Diop, Robinson; João Palhinha, Cairney(C); Wilson, Andreas Pereira, Willian; Jiménez.

The match has kickoff

There was a rumor said that if manchester united has been showing good interest to recruit real madrid's winger vini from elreal. I don't even think this is possible to happen caused by we do know how vini was alwasy feeling good when he was playing for real madrid.
He came as nothing in real madrid then he was staying to become something after the coach has been developed him so much compared a few years ago when he was starting his debut on real madrid. He was one of greatest winger in the world.
I have no doubt that some clubs may have interest to recruit him but the main problem if it seems he will be willing to stay very long in real madrid. This news appears after real madrid being linked to the mbappe.
I meant mbappe can play with left/right legs and this is not a problem to have mbappe in the club without selling vini to the another club. Vini was a good winger and this rumoa may never happen. It will be so bad if real madrid will be selling vini to the other club like Mu.
tean hag will destroy his career as a greatest winger.

The Premier League is finally back with the second part of the season.    What do you think about the Newcastle v Manchester City and Manchester United v Tottenham matches?

For the first match I see Manchester City being a solid favourite to win the match. De Bruyne is finally back which must have made Guardiola and fans both very happy. Because De Bruyne is one of the game changers for Manchester City as you know. His creativity and individual skills are really valuable. He made difference in his first match after injury already. I expect him to be in the starting eleven against Newcastle as well.  

The other match is also very attracting.    I think this match could be similar to the Manchester United v Aston Villa match. I wouldn't be surprised to see Tottenham scoring first and then Manchester United trying to make a comeback. I'm confident about both teams to score but it is hard to predict how the match would end.  

Barca can do well without Raphinha. The problem is they can't score as good as last season. We missed the Barcelona we used to see, who score a lot of goals in every game.
Lamine Yamal can play there. He used opportunities pretty good so far. Barca had too many injuries this season but other than that, they don't dominate attacks and score a lot of goals as their tradition. I think they need better transfers but financial situation is still poor. For sure they need another role player, they can't win all matches with only Lewandowski's goals.

New signings and putting the team in a dilemma of evicting and retaining one out of two options. When the situation happened with Ronaldo, it was said that it's cos of his influence, money and capacity. Now it's Benzema's turn, what will be said. For me I'd blame Saudi league because the teams are trying all their possible best to be recognized.Al Nassr before Ronaldo joined weren't heard about. All of a sudden, they're talked about occasionally.

 It's rumoured that the league wants to secure a spot in the UEFA champions league and they shouldn't be blamed for doing all it takes to make meaning.They'd rather do away with those that doesn't really matter and retain those that actually do matter. It's kind of life's lifestyle. No doubt every team there, if in that situation will do the same as Al Nassr had done or even worse. It's all for a purpose, I don't know but likely in the coming months, we should expect to see more of these occurrences.
