The arrival of Mbappe and Endrick has great potential to make Real Madrid even stronger but on the other hand, this will also make the battle for places in the first team even fiercer (particularly on the front lines). If Arda Guller ends up staying with Real Madrid next season, then he will also be in that fight. Obviously it won't be easy, because he has to compete for a place against Vini, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Mbappe, and Endrick.

This condition might also be a headache for Carlo Ancelotti because it's not just about determining the best decision but he must be truly transparent so that the decision does not give rise to assumptions among the players that might actually trigger jealousy and unhealthy rivalries.
I don't think Arda Guler needs to fight with these players for his position because Arda Guler is a midfielder and not a striker. So it really doesn't make sense if he competes with these players. In addition, Arda Guler must be able to compete with other midfielders such as Bellingham, Camavinga, Modric or Brahim. However, of the four names, only Brahim could take over his position.

Arda Guler doesn't need to compete for the first team because there are no longer any players he can replace, but if he becomes a more proportional backup like Brahim, he might still be able to fight. On the other hand, if a midfielder is injured, it will also give him a bigger chance to play. So this is just a matter of rotation so to fight for the main place I think it's still quite a while Arda Guler can do it.

Wow, Endrick is still very young at 17 years and as such, of course it will be difficult for Endrick to be included in the starting eleven. Therefore, it looks like Endrick will be on the bench more often and even though there is player rotation, I believe it will still be difficult for Endrick to enter the starting eleven. With Endrick age being so young, I personally would be more confident that Real Madrid would loan Endrick to another team, of course to be able to continue to improve the quality of his performance rather than just sitting on the bench moreoften. But indeed,inthis way it is clear that Real Madrid is really making progress inthe long term because it recruits young players. Ofcourse,  that is a very great way for Real Madrid to do it, because in this way Real Madrid will maintain its great quality from season to season.

This was actually going to happen sooner or later. Even though they have been able to win the Bundesliga title in the last two seasons, The performance was not that convincing, to be honest. They were making a lot of mistakes. They were just getting away with those mistakes because there was no team that was actually able to compete with them. But now when they have some competition, they have lost the title. if there had been any competition in the league in the last 11 years, they would have lost the Bundesliga title earlier.

A lot of truth and something of deep thought in what you’ve said about Bayern Munich. Since they don’t have any competition all this years, we haven’t been able to see their lapses even though they made a lot for the past 11 years they’ve been winning the title. Thanks to Bayern Leverkusen for making it look possible that nothing lasts forever and any team can also win the Bundesliga once they’re committed and put in the hard work to make them successful in the league. We are waiting to see what Bayern Munich and also Bayern Leverkusen will play against next season.

Quote
The expectation is obviously going to be high from Bayern Munich because they have set the bar of expectation for them that high. If one team wins the league title for 11 years straight, it is probably expected that they will win it in the 12th year as well.

By the way, I agree that the choice of coach was really questionable.

We shouldn’t be talking more about the coach now since they’ve already made their choice and signed him as their coach to manage the team for many years to come from now. A lot of people don’t have much conviction on him to do well because of his past performance in the team he just left. Hopefully we can see a better performance here and not like what happened in his previous team.

Although Bayern Munich will sign Vincent Kompany but still, if Vincent Kompany fails to give his best for a season later that Bayern Munich can still fire him. So, there is no guarantee that their new coach will end his position until his contract expires, because of course there have been many cases when the coach failed to make the team perform well and then the coach was fired even when the season was not over. But indeed, about Bayern Munich appointed Vincent Kompany, it seems that Bayern Munich has really declined in many ways. Because after all, usually Bayern Munich will appoints coaches who have had high experience and achievements as managers. But about Vincent Kompany, the fact is that Vincent Kompany only managed to make Burnley a promotion team but after that, Vincent Kompany failed because in the end Burnley was relegated again there.

Several times, Bruno was unable to appear consistent, but when it mattered he was able to make a contribution, as happened in the FA Cup final some time ago with an extraordinary no-look assist. But if we talk about overall performance, sometimes it can't be used as a benchmark for whether it's good or bad, and maybe this is a natural instinct in times of uncertainty.

I think his role is still quite significant at Manchester United and it would be a shame if he left. Manchester United must at least prepare a midfielder who is much more capable than him and at the moment it doesn't seem like there is one. Erik Ten Hag likes to experiment with the Red Devils squad and we can't blame him considering the number of injured players this season. Well, it would be very nice if every problem could be resolved well and bring major victory to the team.
In last few years, we are having too many experiments in Manchester Untied with too many extraordinary players are unable to perform as their reputation which is wired thing happening with inquires are also the biggest issue for them, but Bruno is still one of the best players which Manchester United needed for their better future, but we all know we are having uncertainty around Manchester United and Eric Ten Hag is doing his own experiments things are not clear who is going to stay and who is leaving but still he could be here for next season which will make some better results and most chances they could be able to have better spot again in Premier League.

In this transfer window we are going to have many clubs are going for their squads overhaul which will make interesting changes so right now talking about any change is too early but still I also feel he needs to stay here.

I think it is very inappropriate for Manchester United to sell Bruno Fernandes because after all, it seems like Bruno Fernandes is still the main choice for Manchester United's main squad. Moreover, Erik ten Hag will also still be the manager of Manchester United nextseason and as such,  it will certainly be difficult for Erik ten Hag to make big changes quickly for next season. Unless, if Manchester United sacks Erik ten Hag and then appoints a new manager, then it is likely that a major reshuffle could also occur. After all, Bruno Fernandes also has a contract until 2026 and at the age of 29, then I think it is still very feasible for Manchester United to keep Bruno Fernandes.

Milan doesn't look like they are in a hurry to bring a new manager after parting ways with Pioli. I assume they just decide to wait for Euro 2024 to end. Maybe they even want to watch some managers here to add them to the list according to the performance.  Smiley

There are always good managers out there. Making the right choice is the most difficult thing for the long term. Milan likes to bring Italian managers more often than the ones from other nationalities. They might have entered the race as well if Napoli didn't finish Conte deal quickly. After Allegri and Ancelotti, this was the first time they went for the long term with the same coach. I'm curious about whether they will find a manager to work with for as long as Pioli's time.
Seria A elite clubs are positioning themselves for the top battle next season. It's definitely going to be elite for them because most of these clubs have to configure their clubs when it comes to managerial management and also making important signings for the purpose to make increase in stellar performance. Stefano Pioli have done his best for AC Milan but they club needs to write a new chapter inother to boosts their performance.


You need to realize that Napoli and Antonio Conte have reached an agreement and also, Antonio Conte has a contract until 2027 in Napoli. So, there is no longer a chance for Milan to compete with Napoli to get Antonio Conte, because Antonio Conte has signed a contract with Napoli for a few days ago. Then. But regarding Stefano Pioli, I think Stefano Pioli's contract has expired because after all, I don't know whether Stefano Pioli was fired or his contract with Milan has ended. But apart from that, I think Stefano Pioli's departure is a good way too, because basically Stefano Pioli also left in a good way. But indeed, of course Milan will try to appoint a new coach for next season and that will of course happen sooner or later.

As always Real Madrid team was strong, last season they performed very well and won the title. However, since Mbappé joined Real Madrid, more positive aspects have been added where Real Madrid are likely to perform better. Because at the moment Tarun has got a striker who is most likely to perform well, but Manchester City can compete from a strong side. Manchester City lost with Real Madrid this season, so I can say that Real Madrid team will always perform well.
Real Madrid has had a wonderful season, with better performances throughout the season since they were able to dominate the championship. But stated that they cannot compare any team with Real Madrid except Manchester City. I didn't agree with that because there are so many clubs that are also better than Real Madrid. It's just that those clubs are in different leagues, teams like Liverpool and Arsenal also did better this season.
 
Furthermore, since Mbappé has been signed in to Real Madrid again at the end of this season, let's see if he can bring positive changes to Real Madrid, because the way people's are given Real Madrid the moral that they're now stronger than before since they have vicious before, and the fact that Mbappé has finally joined them again may be the next season's champion league might be under their control.

Even if, for example, Liverpool and Arsenal play against Real Madrid, in reality Real Madrid will still win. Because after all, Manchester City won the Premier League trophy and in fact Real Madrid still managed to beat and eliminate Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. After all,in reality Liverpool also failed in the Europa League with a terrible defeat against Atalanta and also, Arsenal also actually lost in the quarter-finals of the Champions League against Bayern Munich. With results like that, I think it is natural and reasonable for Real Madrid to remain the best and there is no better team than Real Madrid. Because after all, if you think and/or assume Arsenal is better than Real Madrid,  then Arsenal should be able to win the Champions League trophy and not Real Madrid.

Shocking news came from Reims, which is mid-sized Ligue 1 team, they are reportedly looking for new coach and several rumors circulating state that Reims is interested in bringing in Ancelotti son to become coach there.
Davide really has the potential to be able to lead Reims to become stronger team, he has quite good experience, even as an assistant coach for his father, Davide can have various strategies and also ways to build team competitively.
Maybe this could be good step for Reims but it also doesn't guarantee success in the near future, it just that seeing how his career in the world of football has gone, it will make it very possible for Davide to become great coach in the future.

But for now I have not found clarity on this rumor, maybe in the future everything will be clear how Reims will be able to get new coach for next season.
If it really happens that Davide can be brought in as Reims coach then that will be very positive thing for Reims development over the next few season.

Although Davide has been an assistant coach for a long time and certainly has great experience as well but in reality, Davide was not so successful as a player. But indeed, having great experience or not as a player, but when they become a coach can indeed have good results and can also be bad. Therefore, being a great player or not, the reality is that it does not guarantee that someone will succeed or fail when they become a coach. But indeed, because Davide always seems to get great lessons from his father, then maybe accepting Reims offer will be a good choice. Because then, it will certainly make Davide get a new experience that was previously only an assistant coach, but at Reims later Davide will become the head coach.

Hmmm, I quite agree with your opinion, mate. Enthusiasm at the start of the season is necessary to build the foundation for the league's journey, logically this makes sense. If at the start of the season Bayern Munich meets St. Pauli or Holstein Kiel, that would be a one-sided advantage for Bayern Munich.

But first, as I said before, we just need to see how Vincent Kompany leads this club in the friendly match against Duren, then the 2 leg match against Tottenham Hotspur and the first round of the DFB Pokal in August.
There must be reasons behind the veteran manager's refusal to take over at Bayern Munich. Every season we see that if Bayern Munich don't do well, they change the manager at the end of every season because they give the full responsibility to the manager. For a manager to be given the job and dismissed on the basis of his performance in one season, it must be a matter of self-respect, and it is largely because of that self-respect that experienced managers have turned down Bayern Munich's offer.

Kompany is not a skilled or experienced manager, but Bayern Munich are forced to rely on him because they have no other offer. At least they can't manage a team without a manager.

So far 6 managers have refused to manage Bayern Munich, including: Xabi Alonso, Julian Nagelsmann, Ralph Rangnick, Oliver Glasner, Thomas Tuchel and Roger Schmidt. Don't know why these great managers don't want to manage Bayern Munich, one thing that's on my mind right now is that it might be because the club's expectations are too high for the manager and it's a very tough job. As I said before, we'll see how Vincent Kompany will take this Bavarian giant.

I think Bayern Munich doesn't always change coaches every season, but indeed, for the last two seasons at least Bayern Munich changed their coaches after firing Julian Nagelsmann and then appointing Tuchel. But unfortunately, Bayern Munich may have been disappointed with Tuchel because of the poor results he got at the start of the season. Because of this and entering the second half of the season, Bayern Munich stated that they would fire Tuchel at the end of the season.

However, in reality that season, Bayer Leverkusen was indeed the best team and as such, at the end of the season Bayern Munich planned to give Tuchel another contract. But unfortunately, it is also possible that Tuchel also has been disappointed with Bayern Muinch to the point where it is finally difficult for Bayern Munich to appoint a new coach, until Bayern Munich takes a big gamble by appointing Vincent Kompany as Bayern Munich coach next season.

remembering that it was previously rumored that a team from Serie A (Milan) wanted Arda on loan ...

I couldn't see any updates on Milan's interest in Arda. Yeah there was some news before like they were interested. But maybe after Ancelotti stated that he would stay at Real Madrid this summer, Milan might have dropped their interest. Otherwise I would be okay with watching him play for Milan as well. Because Milan are currently doing quite well in the Serie A and they would give more playing time to Arda there.  Smiley

But if Arda doesn't also want to leave then there is no need to look for a new adventure. Real Madrid is a great team when it comes to improving a young talent in every way. Even while that player isn't able to find chances very often.

I think, maybe the rumors happened when Arda still didn't get the chance to play after recovering from his injury. But anyway, near the end of the season that Arda has also had the opportunity to play even though it happened only for substitutes or playing in the rotation of players made. But despite this, the fact is that Arda always manages to score goals and make a good contribution to the results obtained by Real Madrid. Therefore, it might make Arda mood good again and of course, with this factor at least making Arda might feel more comfortable at Real Madrid because he has managed to show his quality.

There was great interest in Julián Álvarez, especially from PSG. Today City made a statement, loan offers for Álvarez will not be accepted this Summer. The player's playing time will increase. It's the right move for City, he could guarantee his place in the rotation. I don't understand why he says he wants to play more when he played almost all the games last season. He missed only two games in the league and came on as a substitute in only five games.

Yes, it seems like Julian Alvarez always gets good playing time at Manchester City, but if Julian Alvarez suddenly says he wants to play more then I don't think that makes sense. If Julian Alvarez wants to leave, then I think just say what he wants and there is no need to make untrue statements like that. Unless, if Julian Alvarez really is on the bench more often then it would be natural for that statement to be made. But in reality, Julian Alvarez also always plays in many of the matches played by Manchester City in all competitions and therefore, Julian Alvarez should be in a good situation in the Manchester City squad.

This season Aston Villa were able to show a good game, so they were able to compete at the top and managed to finish in 4th place. That is not an easy thing to do in the English League, especially in the English League which has very tight competition, but they managed to do it. .
Of the 38 matches they played, they managed to achieve 20 wins, 8 draws and 10 defeats, those are good statistics for a team that is usually in the middle of the table. They also have a pretty good goal productivity, but their defense is still too weak so they concede a lot, in total they conceded 61 goals in 38 matches. That is a percentage that is not very good, although in the end they can be at the top and succeed in winning 1 ticket to go to the Champions League next season.
I hope they can be even better next season and can compete in the Champions League representing the English Premier League.

Although Aston Villa has the world best goalkeeper but anyway, the reality is that Aston Villa's defense is also not entirely good, and as you said then of course it is not entirely good results. But even so, at least Aston Villa managed to finish in the top four and maybe Aston Villa's success this season is also certainly due to the great skills that Unai Emery has. Therefore, maybe next season Aston Villa will still be good and of course, we will also expect good results for Aston Villa in the Champion League next season. Because after all, in the previous season also Aston Villa was almost relegated when the manager was Gerrard, but Unai Emery managed to make Aston Villa compete strongly in the upper zone of the Premier League standings, of course it was an impressive result.

Teams that needs to sell players before they can continue is a trouble. I am sure they are going to definitely figure something out and sell some players and make it, but that type of law is making things harder for clubs.

This does not mean that City is right, because what City is fighting for is basically any owner should be able to put up any amount of money they want, and that is definitely not the way to go and would leave a lot of clubs in big debt if that was allowed, FA is trying to make sure that they have some limitations to make sure clubs can sustain. However, I also believe that FA is putting a too short of a lead as well, they are just making it super hard to compete, and that is not going to be all that possible if you ask me.

When there is a wealthy owner and is able to buy many great players for me it is not a problem, because the problem is when they exceed the limits that have been set. Maybe something like that makes Manchester City violate but anyway, as long as they don't have a big debt and still have healthy finances then I think it's not a problem either. Indeed, I don't really know the problem that actually happened, so there are rumors that Manchester City will get punished. But as far as I remember, it seems that the problems at Manchester City have been raised also from the previous season or from a few seasons ago. But anyway,  the reality is Manchester City is still fine because anyway, I think Manchester City also did not do any cheating like for example Juventus who cheated about the score or something like that there.
912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season on: June 07, 2024, 04:59:28 PM
Since the UEFA Champions League competition has not started, I disagree with these statistics because we have not seen how all these clubs will perform when the UEFA Champions League competition starts. Even though Real Madrid is the king of the UEFA Champions League competition, one of those clubs you give 1% to win next season's UEFA Champions League trophy can beat Real Madrid for next season's UEFA Champions League trophy. This is football, and nobody is certain of which club will lift the UEFA Champions League trophy.

that's true, but everyone will have their favorite. and based on the performance shown last season, of course, we can see the opportunities for each team.
although there will be a transfer market that could change some of the strengths and competition when the competition starts. but it does not rule out the possibility that the shift in opportunities will not be too far away.
all surprises can happen in football. but we don't expect that to happen when you are betting.

Although it is true, it is still very far from starting the new season but still, when it comes about  the Champions League I think Real Madrid always has a good chance of getting the trophy. Although, of course, there are still other teams that will also have a chance to become candidates for winning the trophy, but Real Madrid chances are still the highest and that makes perfect sense. Moreover, if next season Real Madrid has Mbappe in their squad then ofcourse, I think there is no doubt that Real Madrid will still have a chance to win the trophy. Because after all, it seems like other teams still have to try to improve the quality of their performance to be better, while Real Madrid already has a good squad and performance and they just need to make it consistent and that is enough for Real Madrid to have a good chance of getting a trophy.
913  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 07, 2024, 04:44:10 PM

I agree with you that Antonio Conte has great potential to bring positive change at Napoli if given full freedom to form the squad he wants. Of course, losing a key player like Osimhen would be a big loss for Napoli because apart from his young age, Osimhen also has great quality, especially since Osimhen was once the top scorer in Serie A.

Antonio Conte is a great coach and I'm sure Napoli will be even better next season. It is very unfortunate because Napoli only managed to finish in 10th position in the standings after they won the league the previous season. There are many problems at the club but sacking the coach and replacing him with Conte is a good choice in my opinion.

Osimhen is still young and has a lot of potential. Currently he has the best value on the market. If Osimhen doesn't leave now and chooses to join Napoli, I think his market value will fall over time and depending on Napoli's performance next season.

If you believe Conte will make Napoli better, but why do you assume if Osimhen stays at Napoli his market value will drop. Because anyway, if Osimhen stays at Napoli and Conte manages to make Napoli better, then of course there will be a big chance for Osimhen to experience a good lift as well in performance and also market value which will certainly improve as well. But anyway, it looks like Osimhen has also decided to leave and also, because Napoli will only focus on the domestic league next season then I am sure Conte will succeed in making Napoli compete in the top four of the Serie A standings next season. Therefore, although Osimhen will leave but I am sure Conte will still succeed in making Napoli stronger next season.

It is indeed difficult for Victor Osimhen to show his performance if a team is in decline and what happened last season cannot be used as a reference for Victor Osimhen's performance.
So I think PSG recruiting Victor Osimhen is something they have to do to replace the position left by Mbappe and we also have to look at Victor Osimhen's overall quality and I think he is very worthy.
PSG is a place that is still very suitable for Victor Osimhen in terms of testing his quality again in what could be considered a continuation of his career in the world of football. Because Victor Osimhen only needs to prove this for other teams to see that he is a player who still has quality in the world of football so that he can again make it possible for other better teams to look at him in the future. Because it's true that he won't be able to develop in a team whose performance continues to decline like Napoli even though he also won with Napoli.

If Osimhen plays at PSG, that doesn't mean that Osimhen should be interested in other teams because after all, the main task of a player is to produce good results for the team. So, basically because Osimhen is also still young then of course it will be very good for the PSG squad in the long term. However, it seems that so far PSG has recruited older players more often and as a result PSG has still failed in the Champions League.

After all, Mbappe, who was still young, also left because PSG's quality was still unable to compete strongly in the Champions League. Therefore, I think if PSG recruits a young player like Osimhen then maybe this will enable PSG to move on quickly after Mbappe's departure. So in essence, I think Osimhen will still be suitable to play at PSG because at least playing at PSG is still better because PSG is a big team in Ligue 1, and that will promise good results in the domestic league too.

I am optimistic that Barcelona will rise and become a serious challenger in the race for the La Liga title next season under the coaching of Hansi Flick. Even though Barcelona cannot freely bring in quality players due to financial problems, with the existing squad, Barcelona should be able to win La Liga next season.
If it can't be done, it won't be surprising to many people because Barcelona's rivals will still be strong next season and this will be added to by the arrival of the best players from France at the end of this season. However, you shouldn't be lax about being optimistic if you are a fan of the Barcelona team, but you also have to look at the more logical reality of this because a team like Girona alone can also be an obstacle for other big teams in terms of winning the La Liga title.

I personally don't care about Hansi Flick becoming Barcelona's manager next season because, after all, Real Madrid is still the best team. Moreover, Barcelona does not have much financial resources and thus, it seems difficult for the Barcelona squad to play comfortably. Because after all, the lack of finance will certainly greatly affect the team's operations as well. Therefore, if for example Hansi Flick manages to make Barcelona in the top four then for me the result is still good for Barcelona because to get the La Liga trophy, I personally will still be very doubtful. But indeed, let's just wait and see what kind of results Barcelona will get next season, and whether Hansi Flick will really succeed in improving Barcelona's quality or not.

Now we see the end of this season, and the teams performance which was a surprised to many people because some teams some people thought they will perform well in this season failed at the end of the tournament, but the team people thought they will lift the trophy failed at the end of the final game.

I believe Bayer Leverkusen will not going to miss this trophy next season,because it look like all their players will still remain till the end of next season and it will help them to work together to achieve their goal.

Some teams has started signing some new players and coaches, just to correct some errors that made them not to improve during the season that ended for the favor of Atalanta team.

The fail of Liverpool in this Competition was mind-blowing as they lost at Anfield which has always been a fortress. Atalanta was the shocker as they went ahead to beat the two clubs we considered finalist even before the finals.
I never expected them to do that truthfully and they also did the same against Bayern Leverkusen in the finals which finally wowed the world.

We'll be seeing how they go against Real Madrid in the Super Cup Competition Finals come August next season.
Bayern Munich are in the Champions League Competition, I don't see them falling back into the European Europa League Competition next season, they will definitely sit at the top of them group.

We will see. Aston Villa in the Conference League Competition also stunned me by surprise. One would think they've got the finals already.

In the European League it always seems like there are surprises, but for the Champions League, I don't think surprises happen very often because after all, it seems like if Real Madrid manages to qualify for the final match, then of course Real Madrid will still succeed in getting the trophy. Therefore, regarding Atalanta who will play in the UEFA Super Cup against Real Madrid later, because it will bring together or compete against the Champions League v Europa League trophy winners. So of course, I am sure that Real Madrid will still succeed in getting the UEFA Super Cup trophy later. Also, even though Bayer Leverkusen has been very impressive this season, but competition in the Champions League next season will certainly not be easy, and there is no guarantee for Bayer Leverkusen to qualify for the final match.

Bayern management has of course thought beforehand about the decision they have taken even though this seems like a big gamble by recruiting Vincent Kompany because Bayern is in a slump and wants to get up and also Vincent Kompany is not an experienced or successful coach in his previous team and also very much people who doubted Vincent Kompany.
However, everything takes time and process and we'll just have to wait to see how far Vincent Kompany can make changes at Bayern and I think if that doesn't happen in the near future there will be a lot of criticism towards him which will make his burden even greater.
It is not wrong to give time to the new coach who came to Bayern Munich with the determination to turn Bayern Munich into a strong team again next season. However, Vincent Kompany himself must be really aware that the team he will coach is a team that is often watched by many people so that his own performance will also continue to be monitored by many people when coaching Bayern Munich. So he really has to think about this better before a lot of criticism is directed at him for failing to make Bayern Munich a brighter team next season.

Every coach of course have a great determination to make the team reach the highest achievement and thus, it is certainly not only Vincent Kompany who has such a determination. But I personally still think Bayern Munich made the wrong choice because after all,  it seems like Bayern Munich is just like Chelsea who are not ready to go through a long process to achieve success. Therefore,  when they fail in the season or in the period, then they will sack the coach when the season is over or maybe will make a quick statement about the sacking even before the season is not over yet.

Therefore, I think recruiting Vincent Kompany is clearly a big gamble for Bayern Munich, because basically Bayern Munich also previously received rejections from several managers who were offered. Until in the end, Bayern Munich seemed to be in a hurry to decide to appoint Vincent Kompany to become Bayern Munich manager next season.

I can see that United is already looking to move some players around, and that is not a bad move, because if you can get rid of the dead weight then you are going to end up doing much better. I think it's clear that we are going to end up with a much better result if given be, and they are on that path.

They need to offload some of these players and their salaries, for whatever amount, they already have some money as well so combine their own money and all the money they make from the sales, they could potentially get players that are good. So far they have overpaid for many players that they got no results from, if they could make better transfers then I am sure that they are going to end up with a better season, of course if they can stay uninjured too.

Basically Manchester United is always active when the transfer window opens and in fact, the coach is also always given the freedom to determine the players to be recruited and sold. But unfortunately, selecting or selecting players like that sometimes also does not give maximum results and may also experience failure due to declining performance. Therefore,  I think in this case it is not about continuing to be active in transferring players, but the right management that will make the team have a better performance and of course to have a chance to get trophies. After all, Erik ten Hag was previously rumored to be fired at the end of this season but anyway, the fact that Manchester United changed its decision because it gave Erik ten Hag the opportunity to stay at Manchester United next season.

Teams that depend on one footballer are not great teams. The biggest example of this is Real Madrid. Ronaldo was seen as the savior of Real Madrid. But all Real Madrid's players were as important as Ronaldo. Real Madrid did not lose after Ronaldo left the team. That's what it takes to be a great team. Now we see young players carrying Real. Ancelotti has built a good team and he's reaping the benefits every year. Mbappe is a very important signing. Now there will be no team to stop them and the Real Madrid hegemony will continue for many years.
This is proof that Real Madrid's financial condition is above all other teams in La Liga. Real Madrid can sign any player and tempt any player to leave their original club even with a free transfer. Kylian Mbappe is a newcomer with the case that I said, he would definitely be happy to join the squad even though in fact the club he left did not get anything from his move.

I am very surprised that there is only one native Spanish player in the Real Madrid main squad. Carvajal is a senior right-back at Real Madrid and will probably be the only main player with a Spanish passport next season. There are no other Spanish players who are good enough to be in Real Madrid's main squad next season, but when Ancelotti needs him, then I think they are also ready to give their best.

It seems like it would be a bad result for the Spanish national team because anyway, so far it seems like the Spanish national team squad has always been dominated by Real Madrid players and Barcelona players. But anyway, as you said,Real Madrid don't have many Spanish players in their main squad at the moment and so, I think that factor will have a badimpact on the Spanish national team as well. But indeed, about Real Madrid is certainly still capable of achieving the highest achievements. Because after all, Real Madrid has basically held an elite team for a long time and evenbefore Ronaldo played at Real Madrid. So of course, it is not surprising that Real Madrid is still successful even though Ronaldo has long left.

Union Berlin just got saved by the good goal difference that they had and by winning the last match they have played in the season because they were able to win the last match.  otherwise, it was going to be a big problem for them. From a team that had actually promised so much, it is actually a little sad to see that they are right now fighting to avoid the relegation. In the last season, they had actually finished in the fourth position and the season before that they had finished in the fifth position. So this was really something unexpected. From playing the Champions League and fighting to avoid relegation, it was a hell of a downgrade in terms of performance from them

Yes indeed, although Union Berlin had a lower number of goals compared to Bochum, but Union Berlin conceded less. Thus, Union Berlin managed to finish outside the relegation zone but anyway, even though Bochum finished in the relegation zone. But in fact, Bochum managed to win through the relegation play off and thus, Bochum also managed not to be relegated and Bochum will still play in the Bundesliga next season. But indeed, about Union Berlin, which previously managed to finish in the upper zone in the Bundesliga standings, but this season Union Berlin really experienced a decline in performance until Union Berlin get bad results because Union Berlin only struggled in the lower zone of the standings. But yes, because next season Union Berlin will still play in the Bundesliga, maybe next season Union Berlin will get even better results.
