Glad that Newcastle are thinking the right way but I still don't get one thing- They already have enough strikers. There is Wilson and they brought in Wood in last transfer window and now Isak? I really don't get what they are thinking buying off strikers on and on. Better to just buy the right one and get on with it.

I still remember this incident happened last season when Real Madrid beat PSG in the Champions League. PSG lost concentration and they conceded in the last few minutes of the game which sent the game into extra time. Obviously it hurts a lot for any team, so every team has to stay focused on keeping their concentration especially on defense towards the end of the game if they want to come out with a win.

Frankfurt's bad start this season with 2 defeats and 1 draw in the last 3 matches makes me really doubt how they can compete in the champions league this season. They have never been good in domestic competition, they are weak but something different they can do in European competition. That's the funny thing about Frankfurt.

Apart from this World Cup recently Qatar is doing good job for development of soccer because here government and few other soccer lovers invested good amount in clubs even few months back Xavi was also doing his duty as coach in a club with this you can imagine how they are serious and what they can do, but it's not easy job for any country it's going to take some time, and then they can do much better than current quality level.

Few other Middle East countries are also investing good amount for development of soccer like Saudi Arab and UAE which is good hopefully in next 10 to 15 years we can watch much improved these Asian teams specially from the Middle East could be neck to neck with Korea and Japan in quality because they can achieve these targets.

The new money clan of the English premier league aren't playing around, they're already playing some great football but these additional signings will make them even stronger. Isak is a fantastic young player, he's been very important for Real Sociedad in the last few years and could become vital part of Newcastle project too, pairing him upfront highly in form Allan Saint-Maximin would be scary for any defense line tbh.

Firstly, to what extent De Jong does not want to leave is not known, but it is known for sure that he does not want to leave without the money that Barcelona already owes him. If Barcelona had paid him everything honestly, then perhaps he would have left. Secondly, the press wrote that De Jong's girlfriend was against moving to England and wanted to stay in Spain. How important this factor is is difficult to judge.

We don't know how hard is their workout. For now I don't think Qatar to be below average, being the host it'll try the best to stay active on the tournament. Lets see, the first match of Qatar will give the answer.

Have anyone heard of the FIFA banned All India Football Federation. India have tried to make AIFF same as BCCI and the World Body have banned the organisation indicating the involvement of third party.

I think the idea of selling Aubameyang to raise funds isn't a bad idea after all. Barcelona need finance to register their new players and pay wages of their players so it's better to sell Aubameyang and raise profit to settle the club's expenses after all they have other good options in that position. With few days left I hope they can agree on a fee with Chelsea and get the deal done before the transfer window closes.

Almost all of the favorite teams did not start the season well. This time Manchester City became a team that had to give up the 3 points that should have been seen from their strength, they would have got it. Even though they took the lead quickly, they were so caught off guard that Newcastle could turn things around even with their 3 goals. Luckily they could equalize, so they got a draw in the end.

It was the first time Qatar had the opportunity to open this match for the first time, but I think it's a natural thing when a football match is played somewhere for sure the first match is against the hosts and so on will be followed by other clubs. I think Qatar already knows this and accepts it whether it's a win or a loss. His biggest hope is to get a win and advance to the next round.

Spezia made an attempt as well, but Inter were too strong to take the three points; the way they dominated the game clearly demonstrated that they are also well prepared for this season. They are now at the top of the table before the other teams play their matches, and the league will be very difficult because no one wants to lose a match.

By the way, another interesting game is Inter v Spezia. There have been 8 games in total in the history of the encounter between these teams, 7 of which were won by Inter and one draw. However, in five of the games, Spezia have managed to score a goal. I think it could happen again today, because Inter had an unconvincing first game against Lecce.

I don't think it will be an easy match. Although Cremonese missed points in the first match, but they already made Fiorentina got difficult winning. Fiorentina was lucky to have Rolando's goal in minute 90+5'. On the other hand, AS Roma only won with 1 goal only in their first match. The interesting fact is that no AS Roma stickers were able to make a goal in that match.

I don't know why you guys are underestimating Qatar national team, they have developed very well in the past years. They are the winners of the last Asian Cup where they knocked out South Korea and Japan, and defeated Saudi Arabia in the groups round. I watched all their matches, they showed high quality performance and great commitment in the field. I know Wold Cup is very different competition because they will face teams from other continents with different playing styles, and Asian teams were always the weakest, yet I believe Qatar may do something.

I don't think Wolves are a tough opponent for Tottenham Hotspur, Wolves have never won a Premier League game this season. On paper of course Tottenham Hotspur are favored. There is no doubt that I think Tottenham will win this game.

In principle, please share then in another way, and in what other way can you rebuild the team? In any case, the head coach spent the pre-season part with the team, and a really real game can only be played in real conditions in the form of official matches. The most important thing is for Ten Hag to be an authoritative person for his players so that players take him seriously and implement his ideas, and such things are formed only over time and it is not at all a fact that this will necessarily happen. In any case, the team needs successful games with strong opponents and the match with Liverpool may well be the beginning of a new successful series.

The Milan and Inter derbies are classics to look forward to.  but this time both teams have added new ammunition.  But this season I prefer Inter Milan.

The opening ceremony is probably going to be spectacular, the crowds are going to be there supporting their local team, but honestly, I don't think Qatar has any chances of winning against Ecuador.

In my mind the best result they can get would be a draw, probably 0 - 0.

I don't understand why they haven't done it before, Manchester United, as I understand it, is one of the richest teams in Europe.
If they want the champions they have to do like PSG and put their hand to their wallet. Otherwise they don't attract anyone at all.

Oh yes, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid lost too much in the first part of the championship last season to then compete seriously with Real Madrid at the finish. Let's hope that this season both clubs will not make this mistake and will fight for the title of champion until the very end. It is difficult to draw conclusions only from the first round and therefore you should not take the loss of points by Barcelona too seriously. Everything will more or less begin to appear after at least 10 rounds. Moreover, transfers are still possible, take the situation with de Jong, whose prospects in Barcelona are still vague given the plans of the club's management.

I guess it is not going to be easy to determine how things will happen in la liga this year because everyone and everything looks a bit different. I mean not just teams but the "vibe" is different. Last year it was Reals league and everyone was bad, this year everyone looks angry to get back to the top.

Barcelona missed the title days and sold all they could to build a team, ATM was champions a year ago and wants to get one before losing it too early, and that is how we are going to do it. Personally I believe that Barcelona still has a better chance, but that doesn't mean that other teams do not , Real still looks like favorites according to most oddmakers.
