I see there are a lot of surprises in UCL. So maybe it can happen. But I feel confident with a team with good stats in the League and UCL is the favourite to be champion. Especially they're strong teams like Man City, Bayern, Madrid, they are my favourites for the champions this season.
But sometimes these strong teams don't play in the final and this makes the final too boring. It happened last year's final Man City vs Inter. So I hope the draw will make the strong teams meet in the semi-final phase. Not in the knockout phase at the beginning.


I predict this season will be a battle between teams from La Liga vs teams from the Premier League because so far these teams are more promising, what I'm worried about is that each of them will fight each other in the quarter-finals so that it will reduce their dominance in the next round while teams from the Bundesliga can still compete but are not sure they can reach the final. Do you think there is potential for another team to make a surprise like the underdog team? we had several teams that finished as runners up in the group for example Copenhagen or Inter Milan as one of the finalists last year, so far we cannot predict how this team will play but the opportunity is of course still open.

We have seen 2 candidates from EPL hve already eliminated and more to come soon. La liga is still sending lots of candidates available for now. Please, don't underestimate serie a team as well. I remind you that if the final last season was between EPL and serie a teams.
La liga has been failed before it was able reaching the final. I think that you shall not underestimate teams from the other league. It's caused by any teams have chances to win the UCL this season.

if we are talking about which clubs that may become most potential teams to win the game then la liga teams or EPL teams are having biggest probability but serie a will be only slightly less than it too.
Serie a team was very strong. I remember that when serie a clubs were destroying EPL. Anything is possible to happen in the football. It's caused by sometimes even the small club can dominate the big club too.

I refrain myself from calling teams from other leagues than EPL and la liga as weak teams.

Leverkusen's excellent season in UCL. They managed to qualify from group H without losing. 18 points with 19 goals and only conceded 3 goals. Making them have a new history in Europe. Indeed, in Group H competition, Leverkusen is in a fairly easy group. Even I don't know many other teams. The real test will be in the knockout. If they are able to make it to the Semi-finals it is very good.
It's not an easy proceeds to collect points. What medicine did Xabi Alonso gives his players that have made them to become unbeaten in the competitive long race till this very moment? Everything played out to become displayed as if they're favorite in most of these matches. Bayer Leverkusen is the best club in bundesliga and also in europa this season because they fly to the next round without recording any struggles or defeat so far. This is the club every manager seeks to manage, no stress just the usual importation of good game winning strategies.
I would like to call that leverkusen as the best club in europa league if the club will have proven itself. So far, we can't even see what achievements being achieved by leverkusen this season and can we call that as a strong team? we can't obviously call that as the best team in europa.
There is a club that was capable enough to get better achievements than leverkusen. There is still a chance for leverkusen to be trophyless again this season. Leverkusen is very strong right now but we are talking about the quality of club to defend its performance till the end of season.

Xabi alonso deserves lot of appreaciations from the club but he may also leave from the club in the upcoming season. Im not calling him best manager but xabi needs to proven himself by starting to achieve more trophies with levrkusen.
Im sure there will be a lot of clubs will try to hire him as a new appoinment as long as xabi will able to help leverkusen to gather some trophies this season.
It's all looking good for xabi. He needs only to make sure his club will not be losing the momentum to play even better.

Interesting to see the results of ManCity and Liverpool this week, it gives the advantage for Aston to leading the league next week.
Any team who win in the Liverpool vs Arsenal match will be leading the league but if it draws then Aston will be number 1, they are only facing Sheffield at home.
No goal was happening during the match and this is very disappointed result for me to be honest. Liverpool has got everything needed to win against manchester united started from the ball possession combined with the total goal attempts.
This is very bad result for liverpool. I thought that liverpool would score like the last season but i was wrong. Liverpool was missing an opportunity to win against manchester united. Liverpool looked like a strong club but MU was using everything to defense from any attack by liverpool.
Aston villa has an opportunity to create a miracle to be on the top position of EPL. Emery needs to push his players to play beyond their limit. This will be really helpful to become a foundation for the team to play even better.
Sheffield was losing in the match against chelsea. The club is starting to lose its confidence to play better in EPL. It's not going to be an easy job but it's likely huge margins of goals will happen in that match. Even though don't underestimate your opponent but we have seen that the quality of the players.

Osimhen is a very, very good player. Today, thanks to him, he opened the goal. Napoli scored a super header in the 68th minute. Osimhen needs to play in a much higher level team. I think this will happen next season. He may be in the EPL, in fact, he is a player of that league. We can't say enough about Napoli's second goal. How Osimhen got that ball out of there, he did it in a very classy way, whatever he did, then Khvicha Kvaratskhelia scored with a superb shot, it was a solid win for Napoli.
Walter Mazzarri jobs seems to be in safe hands this season, there's absolutely no going back or hesitating, now he will focus on dominating more prime positions and aiming for the best results in Napoli upcoming matches. Next time you put some respect on the name, Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. They're the best players currently available in the club, we watch how everything changes for the club once they've these important players in the frontlines. Winning Cagliari was a little bit difficult for them because the visitors didn't come here to play, they mean business and everything that follows was great and outstanding.
Mazzarri was just starting to become a new appointment for napoli and how can we think he is going to be sacked by the club? that's impossible thing to happen for sure. Mazzarri has been trying so hard to make sure it will not make napoli lose more points.
The performance against a weak team was not so bad but napoli can do better coz it has better quality. Im thinking about that if napoli needs to give him more time to be a coach for the club.

Mazzarri has not yet adapted with the situation around the club. He needs time to do that and people shall not rush to expect result from him coz he was only a few weeks in the napoli.

Can we expect him to change the performance of napoli drastically without even knowing about the team first? it's impossible to happen and napoli fans needs to be even more patience waiting for him to deliver what he has promised as a new appointment for the club.
It's time for napoli to show if it was able going up again.

Robert Lewandowski is one of the legendary strikers in Europe, and he is already done his best, but his contract is going to end after 2026 currently he is 35 years old his performance in last season was exceptional but now in this season he is struggling just because of this now we have rumors about his possible move even officially nothing is coming about this all but few Saudi clubs are interested specially after departure of the Neymar Jr now this league is waiting for another big name, and he can be possibly in this list even most chances we will have Mohammad Salah also in this league in next season but as organizers having few big names in last season again things can go on this way, and they will give try few players those are near to ending their careers they can make big amount with this transfer and Barcelona and Lewandowski can also do this same.
Saudi Pro League is a very good league to push Robert Lewandowski to especially this season that he's flopping in Barcelona and also, for entire Barca doesn't play good football this season, rather we're watching inconsistent performance from the club, just look at their scores against a mediocre team like Valancia, a club they're suppose to win but instead they settle 1-1 draw with them. At this point, Barcelona ate not active and can not survive in the long race. Robert Lewandowski doesn't deserved to be in the frontline of Barcelona, because the club are giving him too much stress this season, he's aged and doesn't deserved the punishment he's receiving from camp Nou.
I hope so but that depends on lewandowski's decision. I have heard that if barcelona has tried to push him to leave from the club but the main problem if lewandowski seems reject it. It's caused by he is willing to stay in the club much longer than before.
So, i think that lewandowski is trying so hard to defend his position in the club. Lewandowski is not a good striker anymoer. His age is not even lying if he has been declining a lot. Barcelona is interesting to get a replacement for him.
lewandowski shall not be so selfish. he needs to think about the future of club. The club has a chance to sell him for good amounts of money. It's better lewandowski to join in the saudi pro league rather than got terminate by barcelona.
Lewandowski needs to accept his fate if he was not a good striker anymore. Barcelona needs to warn him about this.

Manchester City of late have been dropping points so easy, and with three clubs already above them and in good form, I honestly think this title is slowly slipping away from them...and today's game was one awkward match as City was fully in control of the game and from nowhere Crystal Palace got a goal back and pressure turned against them.. only for Palace to steal a valuable point in the end thanks to a late penalty Cry..
This failure is not the first time, in fact in several matches, Man City has failed to get points, both from top and middle to low clubs. This is really disappointing if you look at Man City's performance in the EPL this season. Failure after failure was created, even against a club like Crystal Palace they were unable to win. There were several mistakes made by Man City players, especially the penalty goal scored by Crystal Palace at the end of injury time. Even though statistically, Man City is far superior, but they are not able to score more goals so they are at full risk of being overtaken. I'm sure that if Pep starts to worry about the condition of his squad, there must be new reforms here.
Crystal palace has always been a difficult opponent for Manchester City. But I didn't expect Manchester City to surrender a 2:0 lead after 70 minutes has been played. Sometimes I begin to wonder what you are looking for wen you are 2 goals ahead. Just protect the goals you have scored and forget to score more.

That's really horrible performance from manchester city. The performance of city has been declining a lot since the previous matches. If we are seeing the stats against palace and i must say that if palace was playing so good.
Crystal palace was only making two goal attempts but all of these changes were becoming goals for the club. Manchester city played without a proper strategy. Manchester city was being so clueless and they don't know what they are doing.

Manchestercity needs to do a lot of evaluations especially on its defensive line. How can manchester city was always getting horrible result like that? i can't even believe it. Manchester city shall able to play better than it.

Manchester city has got everything to win the game like it was having 75% ball possessions combined with lots of shoots but city is not able deliver three points.
There is something wrong with manchester city right now. The gap becomes even bigger.

Galatasaray really fucked up that day as I never expected a defeat from them by Copenhagen that day. My taught about the game is to end in draw even if Galatasaray didn't win. I welcome Galatasaray to the Europa league play -off, I wish they can perform a little bit well in the play-off to secure a place in the Europa league.

I thought Galatasaray would be second in group A. But apparently I was wrong. In fact, the less favored Copenhagen ended up in second place in the group. Honestly I think Copenhagen's win was because Galatasaray underperformed that night. I'm not underestimating Copenhgen but it looks like they won't be able to go any further. And for Galatasaray I'm looking forward to their match in the UEFA European League but the problem is there are also a lot of strong teams there. It is very interesting to wait how Galatasaray will play in the UEFA league.

Galatasaray could make it if the club was able beating copenhagen but the main problem is galatasaray was not strong enough to steal there points from copenhagen. This is also making domino effect to the manchester united.
MU was unable to passing the group stage caused by copenhagen was taking three points while manchester united was losing against bayern munich. Manchester united the unluckiest team in the group. The club is now only having chance to qualify for the EPL.

Im so happy to see that how manchester united was out from the UCL. It's caused by MU is not having capability to compete with another club in the UCL this time. It was always struggling against copenhagen and galatasaray.
How can mU beat real madrid once the club will be facing it in the knock out stage? Im sure that if people are also concerning this too. It's about how bad that team was.

Manchester united is getting setbak caused by it has been managed by worst manager. Manager of the month? this is bullshit.

It is very unfortunate to see the final result of the match between Genoa and Juventus. It could be said that the match was quite even between the two. It cannot be denied that Genoa's performance today is quite impressive, especially being able to hold Juventus to a draw and also hold Juventus to a dominating draw. Genoa could really keep up with Juventus until the end. Personally, I was quite surprised by the result because I thought Juventus would win because their opponents are usually not that difficult to beat
It seems that Juventus thought that a 1-0 lead would bring them 3 points but it turned out that Genoa managed to equalize in the second half and it lasted until the match was over.
This result was quite detrimental for Juventus because even though Inter Milan would face a quite tough match against Lazio, Inter Milan there is a big possibility that they would get 3 points because Lazio is not in a very good condition, so Juventus' point difference with Inter Milan will increase to four from previously only two, and also AC Milan, who will face an easy match against Monza, has the opportunity to reduce their point difference by Juventus.
It's quite unfortunate that when facing a difficult match Juventus managed to get 3 points but when facing a mid-table team they failed to maximize it.
Yes, the draw results have quite an influence on the standing position. Indeed, Juventus will remain in second place because the points are quite far from AC Milan. However, the failure to get the full 3 points further distances him from Inter Milan as the top standing club. especially if Inter can win against Lazio. Although actually, if we look at the situation, Lazio is also a strong club and Inter must fight harder in order to win and get 3 points.

Losing more points made the gap becomes even slower than before. It's very important to keep the gap toward intermilan right now. Intermilan is always getting perfect result. Juventus shall not miss an opportunity to beat its opponent. Juventus needs to put more effort in pushing themselves to win the upcoming games. It's very important for juventus to keep up the gap toward intermilan. This is the most important thing that must be done by the club. Congratulations for napoli caused by it was winning against the bad club with narrow score.
Napoli is not strong yet. Mazzarri has not be successfully transforming napoli into the better form at this moment. Glad to see that my pick was going so well but it's quite disappointed to see the performance from napoli.
I expect more from napoli. Even though napoli was struggling but it was able getting three points which was good.

Quote from: Balmain
We can say that Tottenham has achieved great stability after the troubles they experienced in the interim. They maintain their place in the top five. If they continue with such a good game plan, they can step into the top four and stay there. Many players in the team are in very good form and doing good work. Kulusevski was the best player in the Nottingham Forest match, that magnificent goal he scored was very good, he faced the goalkeeper and finished very confidently. The absence of Maddison and Richarlison affected the team greatly. If these problems did not exist, we would have seen Totthenem much higher, and as I said, they still have opportunities.

Congratulations to Tottenham Hotspur for the favour they got from Nottingham forest home, despite the red card one of the Tottenham Hotspur player got they still maintain the match till the end to defeated Nottingham forest 0-2 for the favour of Tottenham Hotspur. It was a surprised to some people that Nottingham forest strikers didn't scored a single goal through out the match despite there was many opportunities for them to score goals but they missed used the opportunity that made them to lose their three points from the match. If Tottenham Hotspur will be able to win their next match, then we will know that they have come back to their excellent performance they started from the beginning of the competition before their players started experienced injuries that brought their points down.

Totenham has been executing its mission properly. Glad to see that richarlison is starting to find his best performance again. His first goal was very motivational to the club. This is also the main reason why kulusevski was scoring another goal.

The only thing that needs to be evaluated if totenham is continuously getting red card. This is really unacceptable thing for us. Nottingham was playing so badly and this is the main problem owned by the club.
Im sure that nottingham can be relegated this season if the club will continuously gets another lose again. It's terrible performance from nottingham forest. It's losing 5 games in a row.

Nottingham forest was getting a lose streak. Nottingham fans were really frustrated with the performance from their favorite club.

The probability of a draw is bigger than a team winning, yet Juventus still has an opportunity to score and grab 3 points in this match.
Juventus needs these points to keep up with Inter and avoid seeing them getting a gap up to four points this round. Genoa too need to get points, even one point is a good result for them since they are facing a top team like Juventus.
Only few minutes of the game and the result is still 1 - 1.

People are too underestimate genoa till they forgot that if genoa was also good enough in preventing the big club to get the full points. Genoa was performing so well while juventus may be having poor performance like this in upcoming game. Im not calling juventus bad but the stats was showing is the truth. Genoa was as strong as juventus. It can be seen from who genoa was able getting equal stats compared to the juventus. This is very bad result for all of bettors. People are not feeling so good with the current result.
Juventus has been performing so badly in this game. It was not able building a proper attack against genoa. Juventus needs to strengthen its attacking line again. I must blame juventus shows a shitty gameplay against girona.
The club has no direction when it was attacking. A club like juventus shall be dominating the competition. It's very bad for juventus to play so poorly.
Poor juventus. good luck next time.

Since he is 31 years old, I think he can perform at a high level for 3 more years. Casemiro is a player whose style I like and he is one of the few players in the Manchester United squad who does his job well. He has a structure that gathers the midfield. The Saudis spend incredible amounts of money to recruit famous players, but if you ask whether Manchester United will sell him, I think not. Casemiro will be an important dynamo as we go through the recovery process.
Casemiro with his current level of play and fitness is indeed plausible that he is able to continue his contribution at a high level for three more years. He is certainly the most important player for Manchester United, even though we dont see his best performance like he used to perform at Madrid, his impact to the team is so significant. His ability to gather and control the midfield not only showcases his individual skills but also show his importance in the overall team dynamics.

Manchester United being reluctance to sell Casemiro is reasonable with the sentiment that players of his caliber. He is invaluable asset who consistently delivers and fulfills his role effectively. Manchester United as a club, especially during a recovery or rebuilding phase, would likely prioritize retaining such key players who provide stability and leadership. His experience, work ethic, and on-field contributions can serve as a stabilizing force during transitional phases.

We can't be sure about his fitness yet but I can say Casemiro is still at a level in which he can play for more years in top-level teams like Manchester United without problems, however, I think Manchester United should keep Casemiro but even if they don't want to have this palyer any more I think Casemiro can choose to stay in another team in the Euroa which there are obviously many offers for this palyer.
But moving to the Saudi countries is just too soon for a player like Casemiro who can play at this level for his team.

Ten hag is not willing old player like him. It's time to kick him. Casemiro contributed nothing to the club. It's time for manchester united to kick all of old players then replace them all with the players that are still in the golden age. Selling casemiro was very good decision.
It's not about how good his performance but its about how manchester united can take advantage before his price will be going down. Manchester united will able to get more money from selling him.

There's nothing wrong with it as ten hag has been fully planning for the further step use the mney raised from selling the players. Casemiro was not the only one who to be sold by united.
There are so many players in the mancheter united will be put for sale during the winter transfer season. Manchester united has been doing something good by telling all of them. I do support the decision from ten hag.
Manchester united needs to think about how to regenerate its players. it's not about how to use it till he will leave as free agent.

It's about the financial decision that will help club to determine the future. This is the main problem that needs to be sorted out by ten hag.

La Liga is not the same as the Bundesliga or the English Premier League. We have clubs that can handle pressure and those that are simply lucky in winning matches without demonstrating exceptional performance. Losing is an option for clubs that can no longer withstand pressure and convert it into goals. Girona are underappreciated in La Liga, and with all eyes on them, they can pose a serious threat to the Gironistes. Real Madrid and Barcelona can only hope to draw points with Girona; they cannot defeat them because they're in prime form this season.

Yeah I agree Girona can be a threat to anyone but the competition is almost halfway through the season, meaning there are still many games left and Girona's competitors have not yet focused on facing competition in the local league their concentration is divided into European competitions and that is another advantage for Girona but it must be remembered that when the competitors finish in European competitions, Girona must be careful that means the competitors are ready to fight with all their abilities without being burdened with other competitions only focus on the local league.
The performance if girona is not yet tested. Im not being so pessimistic with girona but i just try to say the fact. Girona was always performing so badly but this is my first time to see that girona to plays better than the previous season.
Im only doubting the performance from girona will able to be consistent till the late season. So, we need more proof and it will be hlping us a lot to determine how big the chance owned by girona to win the competition.
Real madrid is the only strongest competitor owned by girona. Im not seeing atletico madrid or barcelona as equal competitors for girona. Yet those clubs have same chances to win la liga like girona but since girona was superior than barcelona.
I must admit girona has more chance to win the game. Let's see what's going to happen with girona soon. People have been waiting for the performance from girona at the late season.

It's caused by it was the most important variable to determine how good girona is.

Manchester United seems to have definitely understood the current situation and it would be very naive if there was no action on this so I think sooner or later Ten Hag's position in the coach will not be safe at this time even though previously many Manchester United officials and legends still continued to support Ten Hag as coach but now it seems that this will be very different in terms of the results received by Manchester United at this time.

According to some German media, they are already looking for a new coach and I can completely understand that. It was clear from the start that they wouldn't be able to beat Bayern in this game and it was clear to me that a new coach would come after the disaster in the CL. In the meantime it is definitely the best decision for the team.

MU has got a new candidate to be a new coach and it was graham potter, he was former chelsea coach last season. Manchester united was not UCL level. It was far below from it. Even copenhagen played better than manchester united itself.
The only problem if the new candidate to be a coach for MU was not experienced coach. He was a flop in chelsea last season with very low win rate. Im wondering what reason why he has been linked to the manchester united.



Waiting for the match between arsenal vs intermilan/PSG. Arsenal must not be lucky enough if the club is going to face a big club that is being placed in the pot2.
Real madrid is the strongest from the pot 1.

Now speaking of Barcelona it looks like they will still try to find some free players but on the other hand there are some rumors that say that there are linking Osimhen with Barcelona even though I don't think this is true because this will not be possible.
Yep, this is unlikely to happen because it wouldn't make sense if something like this were real. I mean of course with their current financial situation and the option of bringing in free agents and loan players is one option that Barcelona can't afford to lose at the moment so bringing in Osimhen with a clause of over 100 million is not going to be possible.
But if you think of a way like what happened to Raphinha from Leeds, it might still be possible, it's just that it will add to their problems because after all, what needs to be considered besides the clause is salary and I feel Barcelona will not be able to afford the salary of Osimhen.
Look at osimhen's price tag being given by napoli. He has non sense price and i don't even think even billionaire club was also willing to get him. What achievement got by osimhen? He was only winning scudetto and his performance was only good for 1 season.
He was too overrated and overvalued. Napoli is obviously crazy team to give non sense price tag. Just let napoli to keep him forever. Napoli is nothing rather than a garbage thread right now.

I don't even know who the hell is starting the rumor about barcelona to buy osimhen from napoli. It doesn't even make sense. Barcelona was struggling to pay the transfer money owe from other club.

How can barcelona get a lot of money for that? barcelona has not yet completed the past transfers caused by the club still owe some money from other club. It doesn't even make sense to link barcelona to the osimhen.
I would rather than put cheap striker as a sense target by barcelona like guimaraes from newcastle. This is a sense target.

@hd49728 Juventus definitely have the advantage of playing only in the Serie A because they’re able to concentrate all their resources to win the league title. Furthermore I strongly feel that Milan won’t win the title because of dropping in the Europa League as playing Thursday night football will effect the player’s and it may even cause them lots of fatigue if they keep progressing ahead in the Europa League tournament.
In terms of focus, Juventus should be more superior. because they will only compete for Serie A and the Italian Cup. compared to other competitors such as Inter and Milan who have to divide the players' focus on the Champions League and Europa League. Of course, fatigue can occur in players in the main squad if player rotation is not carried out well by the coach.
Sometimes coaches are reluctant to replace their best choice of players, but this actually harms the players' own performance.
That should be the case and it can be seen now that Juventus has been quite consistent so far because only focusing on Serie A matches is also beneficial for the Juventus team which is trying to recover and be better than last season.
This season Juventus is back in competition for the Scudetto.

This week, Juventus will face Genoa. If you look at the last few matches between the two teams, Juventus should not have any difficulties because Genoa has not found its best performance so far, and that is inversely proportional to Juventus.
You are probably right that Juventus should have no problems in today's game against Genoa. But Genoa haven't lost the last four home games. Of course those games were against lesser opponents than Juventus, but I don't think this game should be called easy.
Juventus still needs to be careful. We have seen that how juventus was winning everything match with narrow score. It was good result as juventus was always collecting three points but it shows that if juventus was able in dominating its opponent.
This puts juventus into the bigger risk. it's caused by its opponent may also able to perform better than what we are thinking. Genoa was not losing in the last 4 matches and it was proving if genoa was some improvements on its club.

No doubt that if allegri needs to be careful or it will be losing the chance to take three points. Genoa may able to force juventus to get 1 point only.
Im not feeling that good with the performance of juventus. I call that good as the team was consistently getting three points but it was always winning with small margin against its opponent.

This makes me think that juventus may also make blunder in upcoming match soon.

The last game against Newcastle was finally won by Spurs... Maybe this will be the end of their failures... Today they will play Nottingham Forest away, and if Spurs want to stay in the European zone, they need to win... The odds on them winning 1.7 are not bad...
As long as spurs will able to perform the same like when it was against newcastle and it's not problem at all. Nottingham forest was not that good at this moment. I meant nottingham is likely using the fully defensive strategy.
There will be change in the spurs's strategy. it will be the same like the match against newcastle but im thinking a slightly change to happen in this club for sure. Im not really sure if nottingham will able to win against totenham.

the chance is pretty small for that thing to happen but let's see that. It's caused by we do know that how bad the performance from nottingham forest right now. I have no fait in this club.
It may be losing three points against totenham hotspurs. Soon may be cooking in this game. This is what i can take from the result of match.

This summer their president said it wants 400 mil for Osimhen.

I doubt he will leave for less than 150.

That is such a huge price to ask for. He must have done that to sell him at a price not less than 150 million as you’ve predicted. This will also drive away the interest of some top clubs. I am sure he will consider this offer but not to a much reduced amount less than the 150 million. Although any club that is so much interested to sign him, 150 million won’t be an issue for them to buy him if they are fully prepared for it.
Osimhen position is not much different from Mbappe at the moment both of them are still being targeted by big clubs and for Napoli taking action early is the right choice while Mbappe at PSG is a little different in terms of comfort alone which makes him uncomfortable but PSG still confirms Mbappe position so it doesn't come off easily. Napoli goal is to protect the team performance stability but on the other hand, Osimhen does not get the opportunity to step  foot in competitions other than Serie A.  With his current quality the decision to look for more flying schedules is  something that he has to do. Because being famous in just one competition is not that promising.  Likewise Mbappe  must now be able to decide for himself where to land.  No matter how big the player the alternative to becoming a star is a club that remains the main bridge. The question  is do Mbappe and Osimhen dare to leave the zone to look for bigger challenges?
It's certain that Osimhen will leave Napoli once the opportunity opens up in the coming transfer window, because he is still a valuable striker that just won an award as well as him wanting to experience other top flight league competition most especially the EPL.
It's a dream for many star players from Spain or Italy to experience English soccer because it's one of the hardest leagues to play in and a difficult destination to win a Balon 'd or from, unless one is exceptionally too good to ignore, as in being as talented like Messi or Ronaldo.
How can you say like that? Even the news was also showing the opposite thing if osimhen was not willing to leave from the club. So many news has been reporting that if osimhen is not willing to leave from there. He was not intentionally joining in the new club.
This is why the media was also doubting the chance of chelsea to get him from napoli. It seems like that he is going to disappear soon. Im doubting him to join in another club and it will not happen. Osimhen is too good to be true to leave from napoli.
His price is also become the main factor why he will not be leaving from the club. Napoli's president was really obsessed toward him. No doubt that if the team was trying so hard to make it happen for him to stay even longer.
I hope osimhen will not be leaving from napoli. Seeing him stuck in the same place is far better rather than getting more experience to play in the different league right now. Overrated player.
This is what i call him right now.

Six points between the league leaders and Barcelona, Atletico Madrid included. One point between Girona and Real Madrid. Infact the league is still open for all four of them. It's just that having Girona at the top of the league has been a shocker to most footbal fans for they never expected such happening. A low life in La Liga, taking the lead and I'm not gon be perplexed when I see them at the top until the first half of the season comes to an end. The league being boring and interesting is all part of the journey.

Real Madrid despite the absence of these players we think are undropabble have done excellently great. Carlo Ancellotti has managed the boys to victories. They will need all the best when they begin the second half of the season. Vinicius Junior would be back next year as said by Carlo Ancellotti. They'll need him back better as they'll be ready for the round of sixteen games.
By missing out on that many points, it will be difficult for Barcelona to catch up and take first place. Even though they still have plenty of time to gain a few more points, Barcelona's performance is no longer like last season, so currently there is no clear certainty regarding Barcelona. Girona will show that they are capable of fighting teams that often win world championships, and it will be Girona's turn to win this season.

This is just the start. The gap will be bigger and barcelona will be playing so poorly in the upcoming games. The bad result against girona may be making snowball impact for barcelona soon. The club needs to try so hard in keeping up its gap toward real madrid. Madrid is very consistent compared to the last season. Barcelona is starting to play so badly this season. I have no doubt that if barcelona will not be winning the competition as the winner. Real madrid is likely winning the competition soon. I hope that if barcelona will not be winning the trophy this season.
Let girona to take it will be a very good thing as it was giving us a new nuance to see unfamiliar club to win the trophy this season. Girona looks like a very strong club right now.

This summer their president said it wants 400 mil for Osimhen.

I doubt he will leave for less than 150.
that makes sense since osimhen has been rumored to extend his contract with napoli soon but it was a setback for him. He was choosing to stay instead of getting more experience in another club. I would not be surprised to see that how their president is changing his price again but it seems like that there will be a price to be inserted in new release clause of him which will be around 100m in the new contract. Let's see how it will be going on. Osimhen was not willing to make other team becomes so difficult to get him.

No doubt that if its president was doing crazy thing like so many times napoli president being very inconsistent with the price of osimhen. It was saying 150 then 250 and 300 or even a half of billions but it was going back again to the 200.
The inconsistentcy owned by its president has proven that if the club is not yet ready to losing osimhen from the club. Napoli was osimhen centric, once osimhen shows bad performance then napoli was also doing it too.

Let's see how many times napoli president will be changing osimhen price again.

I don't really think it can be easy for Nice to claim this title from PSG. There are some league that the winner most times hardly change(Ii.e the league isn't that competitive). This is where the french league fall. It is not in anyway competitive. PSG has been dominating this league for years now. Although PSG are not really in great form compare to before but any team that will claim the tittle from them will definitely do extra work.
Differences in club finances could be one of the factors why in some leagues there is always a club that dominates to become league champions because a rich club like PSG will have no problems in finding players to continue to strengthen its squad from season to season while other clubs actually do the opposite when having talented young players and are being targeted by elite clubs who will be willing to let them go in order to earn money for the club, so seeing PSG become champions is a big opportunity this season and if any club can thwart it, of course, it will be surprising, because teams like Nice, Monaco or Lillie will be strong competitors from the beginning to the middle of the season only after that they will find it very difficult to maintain their appearance.
Finance has always become the main factor why some clubs were dominating the league. Take a look at EPL which has been dominating by manchester city. We do know that city has owned by billionaire and this proves that if money was everything in the football.
As long as you have money and you can build the club whatever you wanted it. You can but lots of good players combined with good coach and management. Money is the main reason why people are also playing football.
Become the only biggest club in the french is PSG. It has everything they need caused by it has been supported by unlimited money. that's the reason why the club with good financial was always dominating the league.
The same thing is just happen in bundesliga.
