MU needs a comprehensive change from the coaching bench to the players when the 2023/24 season ends. I really have no patience anymore with coach Ten Hag after MU only won against Coventry in a penalty shootout. It's pretty boring to see MU nearly lose many times. Coach Erik ten Hag is under tremendous pressure at MU. He may be fired at the end of the season. Even lifting the FA Cup championship probably won't change the outcome of coach Ten Hag being fired. MU is facing many difficulties in Erik Ten Hag's second year. They did not show any progress despite spending large amounts of money in the transfer market.
TBH, I also can't wait to see Man United officially looking for a replacement for Ten Hag to try to get better opportunities in the coming season because almost the majority of Man United fans can no longer have the patience to just hope for Ten Hag.
just imagine how bad Man United would be if they continued to retain Ten Hag and I am sure that if Man United top officials continue to retain this coach, it will definitely be difficult for the Red Devils to regain their glory days.

currently there is no definite confirmation as to who Ten Hag replacement will be, but I am sure that after replacing him with the right new coach there will definitely be changes for the better in the results that Man United will get.
For Manchester United to start recording impressively consistent results that'll make them strongly compete for trophies, they must get rid of their current manager Erik ten Hag who I don't think posseses the tactical experience to improve the performance of the club and hire an experienced and very tactical manager with a proven track record of success in coaching. Erik ten Hag isn't just the kind of manager that a big club like Manchester United should continue to keep at the club unless they want to continue to struggle.
A lot of football managers have been named as potential replacement of the Dutch man at Manchester United but none of the names is yet to be confirmed by the club and until they officially do that, any news concerning Erik ten Hag's replacement is just mere speculation. Hopefully for Manchester United, they'll get a manager who'll significantly improve the performance of the club.

No player is permanent at any club. Cristiano Ronaldo played for Real Madrid for a long time and he was definitely one of the best stars at that time but still Real Madrid could not keep him permanently. Similarly, Mbappé may leave PSG, but even if PSG does not get players like Mbappe, they may try to recruit good quality players to their club.

Cristiano Ronaldo gave his best as a Real Madrid player which made him win a lot of trophies at the club but after 9 seasons, he decided to leave and join another big European club. Just like Cristiano Ronaldo did when he was , Kylian Mbappe thinks that his time at Paris Saint Germaine is over and that's why he's refused to renew hks contract with the club. The France national team captain will leave Paris Saint Germaine at the end of the season with Real Madrid reported as his next possible destination. As a Real Madrid fan, having Kylian Mbappe become a Real Madrid player will be one of the most happiest moments during the summer transfer window.
Paris Saint Germaine will definitely find it difficult to get a player that'll replace Kylian Mbappe because of how good of player he is but they just have to start planning of how they'll play next season without the French man

PSG is certain to advance easily to the UCL final, I don't underestimate Dortmund but in reality Dortmund are currently often inconsistent. In contrast to PSG, which has big dreams in the UCL league competition, especially under the guidance of coach Enrique, PSG has become a compact and solid team.
The UEFA Champions League title is only among two promising clubs, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, but when it comes to their opponents, they're not regard small because they developed  important winnings. PSG headcoach, Luis Enrique is doing a great job for Les Parisiens this season. In his first season incharge of Paris Saint-Germain, he already giving us signs about his competent actions, he's taking Paris Saint-Germain to the final right away. A tough fight for both elite teams.

On paper, Paris Saint Germaine is the most favoured team in their semi final tie against Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League competition to progress to the final of the competition and even when I'll want to see them reach the final of the competition, we can't just write off their opponents Borussia Dortmund. The German club if you ask me posseses the quality of players that's capable of eliminating Paris Saint Germaine and progress to the final at the expense of the French champions. That tie is not as easy as most people think of it because for a club like Borussia Dortmund who didn't didn't have a good campaign in their domestic league, they'll surely be giving their all in other to make it to the final of the competition. Luis Enrique is one of the few present day managers that's won a treble before so with his Paris Saint Germaine team, he can still do it again.

At least, Bayern Munich must fight even harder, especially in the Bundesliga. Because his position is also very risky, Stuttgart could suddenly take over this second position. Because it's not that good. And Stuttgart this time is also very on fire to beat Bayern Munich. especially this fixture.
I don’t think there is anything left for Bayern Munich to fight for since there is no hope of winning the title. The 2nd place and 3rd place have no difference to mesincee they are both not winning the league and they will both participate in the Champions League and there is no any special achievement for any team for 2nd place or 3rd place. Actually it will look bad seeing Bayern Munich end at 3rd position so fighting for to maintain their position is not a bad idea. They have been performing poorly and i think it is down to Tuchel who have mis managed the team else they would have won at least a trophy this season.

The game between Bayern Leverkusen and Stuttgart will be an interesting one because both teams are not playing bad and if Stuttgart wins they will stand a chance to occupy the second place again.

It is true that this season Bayern Munich has no more hope and will only end up in second place on the standings, but I am sure that Bayern Munich will win again next season. Bayern Munich will carry out an evaluation to improve the strategy that Bayern Munich uses to always win in every match they face. Bayern Leverkusen will not allow Stuttgart to win easily, Leverkusen will give their best strength so that it will make it difficult for Stuttgart to penetrate Leverkusen's defense. They are already at the top of the standings so Leverkusen must continue to provide their best performance until the end of this season.
Like you rightly said, Bayern Munich had an inconsistent performance this season which was the reason they lost the German Bundesliga title to Bayer Leverkusen -the first time in the last 12 years that Bayern Munich has failed to win the German league. The performance of Bayern Munich this season I don't think is going to reflect to the team's performance next season because they'll be playing under a new manager so I expect them to deliver incredible performance next season that will possibly see them win the league again.
Bayer Leverkusen who won the league this season will still be managed by their current boss Xabi Alonso so it's expected for the club to try their best to retain the title and silence those who thought their impressive performance of this season was majorly as a result of luck

And Xavi's decision to want to stay at Barcelona is also very worthy of appreciation. because after all, we got to see how disappointed and depressed he was. However, in the end, Xavi was able to control himself and make peace with everyone. It certainly won't be easy for him to decide to finally stay at Barcelona, at least until 2025. But this decision is quite proud.
With the financial conditions that Barcelona is currently experiencing, it is the right decision to retain Xavi as coach. Because of course it will be difficult to find a new Barcelona coach who suits the players' playing style and also suits Barcelona's current finances. So this news will certainly feel very positive for Barcelona and also the fans who want Xavi to continue coaching at Barcelona. And for Barcelona players too, this news will certainly be very happy.
Surely, this is definitely a very correct and important decision for Barcelona Club. This is not only related to the financial problems they are still facing at the moment. but also the condition of the club is not as good as before, and Xavi is currently managing football enough for Barcelona's progress. And Xavi, was really willing to re-sign a contract with Barcelona even though he was very depressed and also felt that his efforts at Barcelona were not appreciated. So he decided to leave Barcelona.

However, Barcelona then succeeded in convincing Xavi to stay and coach the club. This is truly extraordinary. Yes, this means that Xavi will have to face various demands from management and fans regarding their achievements. And this will definitely again attract a lot of harsh criticism from fanatical fans who always want Barcelona to be 100% perfect. I often get annoyed with fans like that.
Few months ago Xavi Hernandez announced to the media that he's going to leave Barcelona at the end of the current season and even when he was queried of his decision to leave the club, he simply said that the visions of the club's management is different from what he has so it'll be difficult to continue working with the club. Few weeks later after his first statement he was asked if there was anything that might make him change his mind and remain at Barcelona, he responded by saying that nothing will make him remain at the club even if Barcelona goes on to win the UEFA Champions League title.
Last season, Paris Saint Germaine defeated Barcelona 4:1 to eliminate the Catalan club from the UEFA Champions League competition so I was expecting Xavi to surely leave the club since Barcelona who he said he's not going to manage next season even if they lift the UCL trophy didn't even make it to the semi finals of the competition. But to my biggest surprise, famous football journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that Xavi Hernandez will remain at Barcelona beyond the season after reaching agreement with the club president.

Roma’s performance this season is no match for Napoli, the defending champions of the Serie A. It is a shame that there’ll not even make it to the champions league next season. Roma is the favourite for this match and will win the match against Napoli without much stress. Napoli already lost their stance this season and facing a tough club like Roma this season should be a big encounter to them because their defeat is imminent than a draw or a win for them. In the match of Milan against Juventus, Juventus will continue to fight for that top four position because they’ve not also escaped from being replaced by another team there due to their close difference in points to them.
Seria A table, Roma fights for UCL spot for next season. The more reason they will thrashing Napoli that have been a devastated team. Napoli vs AS Roma, this is decisive game but the away team have good odds of thrashing the home team. Daniele De Rossi already know what to do because he's here for streak business associated with improvement and winning. The best results will always be granted to the consistent teams and the ones that have failed to equipped themselves will find other means of struggling.
With four points behind fourth placed Bologna and five more games to play, Roma are still in a very strong position to finish the Italian Serie A table in the top four of the league table. Roma's biggest chance of closing in on Bologna was when the hosted the fourth placed club in the Italian Serie A table on Monday night but surprisingly, Daniele De Rossi's men were beaten at the Stadio Olympico. 
Roma's next game in the league will be a very big test in their quest to play UEFA Champions League football next season and that'll be travelling to the home of last season winners Napoli on Sunday. Napoli without doubt have been very poor this season but that doesn't mean that they'll want to let Roma defeat them at home so I expect a tough battle between the two clubs when they face each other however, I'm optimistic that the home team is going to get a win a possibly a draw in that game

Well this is probably the strangest bet I've ever won Tongue Even won it in the first half lol.





Wont be surprised if the result will be 6-0 :/

Wow, really strange bet  Grin
I understand perfectly why you chose Foden - he is on fire and there is nothing surprising in the fact that he can score a double, but why is Veltman given a yellow card? I see that he is a fairly cautious defender and does not earn cards in every game. To be honest, when combined with these two outcomes, odds of 19 do not look like fair compensation for the risk. But it's still great that you won.
Phil Foden's performance tonight was predicted by me and I even had to stake on my bet slip that he's going to score goal tonight against Brighton.

In a battle of 2 teams fighting for relegation, Everton defeated Nottingham Forest at home and managed to open the points difference between them. Before this game there was a one-point gap between them but Everton have to be more successful against their rivals in these kinds of battles. Although they didn't play very well compared to their opponent, they won the match with the advantage of playing at home.
Aston Villa, on the other hand, did not make a mistake at home and defeated their opponent and took 3 points. Aston Villa continues to struggle in Europe. Aston Villa, who are fighting for 4th place in the league to qualify for the Champions League next season, must not lose points in their home games.
Everton were one of the best performing teams in the EPL at the start of the season but after the authorities of the English Premier League deducted some points from them early in the season, I think it really affected the mentality of the club as they started struggling to remain in the English Premier. They've been very inconsistent inconsistent with their results this season but decided to be at their best against Nottingham Forest over the weekend. With their result, they're now in a very safe position but will still have to keep performing well to be able to stay up in the English top flight for next season.

As it stands now, Arsenal lead the Premier League table with hip difference because Manchester City have an outstanding match; if Manchester lose any match, they might not win the league because I don’t think Arsenal will lose any match among their remaining matches even though they will ply Chelsea and Tottenham.

Your prediction is a great one, only that with the trend of performance currently heralds, I don't think Tottenham Spurs will be much of a threat to Arsenal, and for the sake of history and the antecedents of Chelsea, one will see the contest between the Chelsea and Arsenal as a tough one, else Arsenal's present performance suggests a win for their subsequent fixturings including that of Chelsea and Tottenham

You are right Tottenham Hotspur may not be a serious threat to Arsenal  because they are no longer on the performance they had during the beginning of the season and also is obvious that if Manchester City lose any match they will missed the chance of becoming the premier League winner this season but however I doubt if they would lose any matches because their chance of winning all their matches look certain for me especially their next match with Brighton it will not take them a long time to win the match because Brighton is too inconsistent to become a threat to them but I believe the only match that looks a bit tougher for Manchester City is their match against Tottenham Hotspur because even if they win the match but there would be a serious struggle between them.
Tottenham Hotspur are trying to make sure they enter the top four of the English Premier League table so playing against Arsenal, you'll expect them to be at their best to at least get a draw so theu can keep their hopes alive. Arsenal who are at the top of the English Premier League at the moment understands how difficult it is to play against their North London rivals so I also expect them to prepare for the game which I know will be a tight one for both teams.

I don't think it's possible for PSG to lose consecutively. This season, no team has tried to rise to the first place in the rankings with such surprise exits from other big clubs. PSG beat Lyon with a different result. It was obvious that Lyon could not escape in this match. Olympique Lyon wants to be among the top six in the rankings. With only a few weeks left, they should collect good points after the loss after this match.
I am not at all surprised by PSG's different victory even though the score itself is also quite striking, because the strength of the PSG team is still not matched by other teams in League 1 this season. So it is still quite natural that PSG can win with that many scores at home against Lyon and for Lyon's hopes of being in the top six of the League this season, of course Lyon must be able to win in the remaining matches they will face this season while hoping that Rennes and Lens could lose in the next matches.
Paris Saint Germaine's home win yesterday against Lyon didn't come as a surprise to me and just like me, I think there are a lot of people who weren't surprised by the scoreline of the game. But what actually caught my attention in the game was why the club manager Luis Enrique decided to rest Kylian Mbappe from the game. Mbappe is bound to leave the club this summer and the manager have said that he wants his team to get used to playing games without the France national team captain.
Paris Saint Germaine have a serious match to play in the UEFA Champions League against Dortmund by next week so it's understandable why Kylian Mbappe was rested in the game last night against Lyon

Real Madrid Bayern Munich is at this stage a european derby, i still remember that penalties definition when Mourinho coach Real Madrid, and Kaka Cristiano and Sergio Ramos missed their penalties, what a time, incredible how after that at least Cristiano and Ramos never failed a importnat penalty.
It's a really nostalgic moment for us but time is moving forward. We will be seeing so many youngstars to play in the upcoming game. Im still expecting real madrid to beat bayern munich. Im not saying munich weak but its statistic was not as impressive as manchester city.



It's hard to pick which from these teams that are gonna win the game soon. Im expecting ma be real madrid win the first leg.

Other key match was when Cristiano socres a few goals and destroy Bayern a few years later.
I think we must move on. Ronaldo has moved to the SPL and that time will never repeat again. We must open to the youngstar and bellingham is also one of amazing talent owned by real madrid too.

Madrid is also having so many great wingers who can perform as good as ronaldo like vini.
In the 2012 UEFA Champions League semi final between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, it was an epic penalty shootout that saw three of the best players of Real Madrid then miss their penalty that saw Bayern Munich eliminate Madrid to progress to the final before they were beaten by Chelsea. But years later, the same Cristiano Ronaldo who was one of the players that missed destroyed Bayern Munich by scoring five goals in a two-legged knockout stage game between the two clubs.
Like you rightly said, Real Madrid have gone past the Cristiano Ronaldo era since the Portuguese superstar left the club in 2018. The current players of Real Madrid already knows about the rivalry between their club and the Bayern Munich and would definitely be giving their best when the two clubs will meet at the in the semi final this season. Bookmakers are backing the Spanish club to reach the final and that I think is what's going to happen at the end of the tie.

I cant get it, i cant, i mean i dont know how the fuck Real Madrid do this, is always the same, they play with stars but also they have not so good players that in key moments appears.
For example yesterday, Lucas Vazquez was the real star of the game, reaching the penalti, giving an assitanse and scoring.
I honestly do not understand why you should have this kind of opinion about the Real Madrid team. Maybe you're not too familiar with the Real Madrid club or probably do not watch their games. The star players of Real Madrid in so many occasions have be very instrumental to the team's success over the years and even in the current season and Lucas Vazquez who scored one of the goals yesterday is also one of the club star players.
The game was won with Jude Bellingham's last minute goal and I don't think there's anyway you're going to count out Jude Bellingham from the list of the club stars so you're probably writing off point to complete your required number of posts of writing from a place of hate which I don't think should be displayed in this forum. Real Madrid is unarguably the best Spanish team as far as this season is concerned and all their star players have been performing exceptionally well

Things are not going well with Al Nassr in the Saudi League. The title is getting harder to hold on to, and their game against Al Fayha didn't give them much hope. What do you think? They won well, which shows they can still fight. That they aren't comfortable is a good sign. Maybe the league title is not likely to happen. They're in the semifinals of the King's Cup, which is a big chance to win a prize. Final game against Al Hilal? A lot of space. Everything you need is to finish the season strong and get even. That needs to be their main goal
Al Nassr is still keep winning for their previous matches but seems it was useless because they cannot taking over first position from Al Hilal and actually Ronaldo is really curious want to gets Saudi Pro League trophy with Al Nassr but unfortunately he have to forget his ambition because just like i said before Al Hilal is too consistent this season and it's hard to pursuing them especially Al Hilal still unbeatable which this is fantastic records and the race title has been over because obviously Al Hilal is the champion of this season but indeed Al Nassr still have any chances to gets the trophy because they still playing at King Cup and against Al Khaleej at the semifinal i think Al Nassr should be go all in because this is their only chance to get a trophy and if Al Nassr can win from Al Khaleej and advances to the final match then they will facing the winner between Al Hilal vs Al Ittihad and yes there is possibility Al Nassr will met Al Hilal at the final match later
There's no win that should be useless for a top club like Al Nassr if you ask me. The truth is that Al Nassr were unable to win the Saudi Pro League this season and are very unlikely to go past the current league leaders in the lead Al Hilal but that in any way doesn't change fact that Al Nassr have been very impressive this season. They have to keep winning as many matches as possible so the confidence of the team will be on the best ratio going into the end of of the season. They definitely do have a chance of making up their shortcomings this season by winning the league next season as well as having a better outing in the Asian Champions League than what they had this season. The club's top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo is one player that loves to win as numerous trophies and the fact that he's failed to win anyone at his current club is a strong indication of how difficult it is to win the Saudi league but I think he'll be doing his best to make sure Al Nassr win the league title by next season

I know a few day/weeks back when Bayern Leverkusen cant beat in a easy way the qarabag team they are not gonna be the winners of this tournament, but well that aged like shit after we see Liverpool going out of the tournament, and plus we are seeing Leverkusen with a ton of luck on their side, man they always score a draw or a winner in the last minutes of the games, like yesterday against Dortmund.
Struggling to beat Qarabag in the round of sixteen of the English Premier League doesn't in any way suggest that Bayer Leverkusen were a weak team then if you ask me. Bayer Leverkusen have been one of the most outstanding teams in the whole of Europe since the start of the season but sometimes, you have to accept the fact that some teams will definitely want to put in their best to stop a high flying team and that's what i think happened in Leverkusen's round of 16 tie against Qarabag.
Bayer Leverkusen are simply the most consistent team in the competition are very likely to win the Europa League trophy this season since their supposed greatest rivals in the competition Liverpool are already eliminated from the competition. In the last 45 games of Leverkusen, they're yet to lose a single game

Aston Villa have been in a good performance this season and their team spirit lifted them to where they are now, just last week they won Arsenal in the premier league match and also qualified for the Europa conference league semi finals, that is to show how determined they have become and all Thanks to Unai Emery for building such a formidable team and I commend his coaching skills at Villa Park.
Aston Villa versus Olympiacos match will not be a problem for Aston Villa more especially in their home ground so they are going to qualify for the finals against either Club brugge or Fiorentina because with the energy that Club brugge showed on the Europa conference league, they might surprisingly win Fiorentina and get to the finals so that match is not yet certain which among them will qualify for the finals but for that of Aston Villa and Olympiacos, Aston Villa have my stake there.
Aston Villa has so far been able to continue to maintain their performance in the Conference League, previously Aston Villa managed to beat a strong team Ajax to reach the quarterfinals of the Conference League, after that they were also quite surprisingly able to overcome the hard resistance from Lille to be able to reach the semifinals, two big and strong teams were eliminated by Aston Villa so I think no team might be able to prevent them from winning the league Conference this season, Aston Villa has a strong mentality in the Premier League and Conference League this season, in addition to Aston Villa's squad which also contains many quality players is of course very perfect when they are supported by the experience possessed by Unai Emery at this time.

Olympiacos will be their opponent in the semi-finals and I don't think against Olympiacos is a tough job for Aston Villa at the moment, we can see how lucky Olympiacos are to beat Fenerbache after the Fenerbache coach made many mistakes in rotating and replacing their players in the match, besides that Olympiacos qualified for the semi-finals with difficulties when only facing teams like Fenerbache so in my opinion Olympiacos has no chance To win at all from Aston Villa later.
I saw a video footage yesterday where sports reporters were interviewing Aston Villa fans and asking them to choose between winning the UEFA Conference League trophy and finishing the season in the top four. The majority of the fans that were asked opted for the the Conference League trophy than finishing the season in the top four and their reason is that it'll help them experience the feeling of winning a trophy as they've not been able to lift one a very long time. It was after watching that video I realized how important the Conference League trophy is to the club fans and why the club players must do everything within their strength to make sure they bring the trophy home.
Aston Villa will play against Greek club Olympiacos in the semi finals of the competition and would only reach the final of the best Olympiacos which o think will be a very difficult task for them . there's every possiblity of seeing the English Premier League club win the competition but I think eliminating their semi final opponent will be more difficult than winning any team they'll meet in the final of the competition

That there was an Italian derby right after the Spanish derby satisfied me enough, and it still does because there is still time for the Italian derby. If Inter wins this derby in the Italian Seria this season, it will be confirmed that they are champions. This match will be the last trump card that both teams will use, so it is a more valuable derby.

The fight between Rome and Bologna is also very important, they are trying to determine their place in the rankings and take part in the Champions League.

Even if Milan win today I would still continue to call Inter as the champions comfortably honestly.  Smiley  Because in that case the point gap will drop to 11 however only 3 weeks later Inter will still be able to announce their championship a few weeks before the end of the season. Milan might really win actually after seeing the draw Inter got against Cagliari. Inter look complacent recently.

Roma - Bologna fight will be great to watch indeed.  Smiley  Now the Serie A has 5 quotas for the Champions League but Roma are still under a big threat of Atalanta as they are only one point behind. Both teams to score and Roma win are my choices to bet on.
Later tonight in the Italian Serie A, we will experience two big games involving four teas out of the top five clubs in the Italian Serie A table. Second placed AC Milan will be playing host to league leaders AC Milan at the San Siro while fourth placed Bologna will travel to Stadio Olympico in Rome to play against fifth place Roma. The result of the game between AC Milan vs Inter Milan I don't think is going to have much impact on how the table will look like at the end of the season but in the game between Roma vs Bologna, the home team will increase their chances of finishing the season in the top four of they can defeat Bologna tonight.
Bologna are currently four points above third Roma but have played a game more than Daniele De Rossi's team so should Roma win tonight, the destiny of finishing the season in the top four will be in their own hands

Eric Ten Hag has over stayed as the head coach of Manchester United. A big club like Manchester United has completely reduced to nothing. I was shocked with the performance of Manchester United struggling to Coventry. With this performance, Manchester City will easily win them in the final of the Fa cup. There has been rumours that Manchester United will hire Gareth Southgate, the current head coach of the England national team to be the head coach of Manchester United next season. The new management of Manchester United know that for the club to move forward Ten Hag has to be relieved of his duties as the head coach. Manchester City academy boys will easily win this Coventry team that nearly knocked Manchester United out of the Fa cup. It's really a disgrace what Manchester United has metamorphosed into.

https://youtu.be/zQQDf3fAO8c?si=lV-ak-9Le0h0u4DT

Man, this just puts everything into perspective perfectly. It is actually crazy to think that Manchester United was ahead 3-0. In the 68th minute, Antony came into the pitch and came back from Coventry structure in 71st minute of the match. he literally did not do much in the match.

By the way, I have to say what was Onana doing during the match? It looked like whenever the ball came towards the D box, or penalty box whatever you call it, he was absolutely clueless. what do I say about Antony! This video absolutely sums everything up. I haven't seen a team that is supposed to be an elite team, win against a team that is probably not even at the same level as them, win by a close margin, and celebrate like that. It literally felt like they were the winner of the Champions League. Meanwhile, it was the FA Cup semifinal.
I just saw a report that Manchester United's owner Jim Ratcliffe  have lined Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel to replace Erik ten Hag at Manchester United after the end of the current season and if for any reason it happens to be an authentic news, then I think it's a very good decision by the man. Erik ten Hag doesn't have what it takes to improve the performance and results of Manchester United and I'm very sure he will not even make any improvement if he continues to remain at the club.
The club can not continue to keep a manager who thinks that it's a good achievement for the club to reach the final of the English FA Cup when the club is supposed to be competing in the the UEFA Champions League as well as challenging for the English Premier League title. Manchester United is one of the big traditional clubs in Europe but have lost that status since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club in 2013 and if they must regain their place, then they must get a manager that has  a better track record that their current Dutch manager

Sir Jim Ratcliffe, as the large owner of Manchester United shares, has reportedly contacted Thomas Tuchel as the new coach if Manchester United part ways with Erik Ten Hag. It seems that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is not quite satisfied with the results provided by Erik Ten Hag with the Red Devils and because while he still has the opportunity, he has approached Thomas Tuchel, who has also been confirmed to be leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the season.

But is it the right decision if Manchester United recruits Thomas Tuchel? Remembering that with Bayern Munich he has failed to defend the Bundesliga title which he has won for 11 seasons and now only has the chance to win the Champions League. I doubt that Manchester United will be better, especially since Manchester United will start from scratch with a new coach later.
I thought when Sir Jim Ratcliffe said Manchester United fans should be more patient it was a signal that he would retain Erik Ten Haag as coach at his club, but if it is true that he has contacted Thomas Tuchel, it means he really wants changes at Manchester United for the better for next season.

However, replacing Erik Ten Haag with Thomas Tuchel will probably only make United the same team, the changes will not be significant because we can see how Tuchel at Bayern Munich failed to bring the team to retain the title and also dominate it in the Bundesliga, Tuchel only looks good when he is successfully brought Chelsea to the Champions League title but afterward, Chelsea also had difficulties in the English Premier League, and what is interesting is that there are rumors that United will use the services of Graham Potter if Ten Haag is no longer at Old Trafford, as well as Mourinho's name being mentioned as one of the replacement candidates and all of them are names who have coached at Chelsea.
Personally I think the decision by Sir Jim Ratcliffe who's happens to be the highest share holder at Manchester United to replace Erik ten Hag with current Bayern Munich boss at the end of the current season is a very good one. Erik ten Hag isn't the kind of manager that Manchester United need at the moment because of his poor tactical experience and decisions that's hugely cost the club a whole lot in the past.
Thomas Tuchel on the other hand haven't been a great manager at Bayern Munich since he signed for them and have made the club lose the league title for the first time in over 13 years but I there's no doubt to the fact that he's a better manager when compared to Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag because their records are there for everyone to see. Thomas Tuchel won the UEFA Champions League title with Chelsea in 2020/21 season after guiding Paris Saint Germaine to the final in the previous season. He'll definitely make a good manager for United if you ask me

I strongly believe that based on what ten hag stated above and to be honest United's standard has been declining significantly compared before when ten hag was not there. United is now entering into the another bad era when a garbage coach like him gets chance to stay even longer in the club. United was one of Europe's biggest clubs, and Ten Hag still considers it on par with Ajax. I believe it's time for United to replace its coach. Ten Hag is a disaster owned by Manchester United. He was lowering United's standards by claiming that two finals in two years was acceptable. It's unfortunate that a big club like United was doing this. Sir Jim needs to breplace him asap, and I can't believe what Ten Hag said. Things have been going so badly for ten hag, with him claiming that it was something for United to reach the final twice in two years which is totally crap for a big club like united. Reaching final in any season is a must. Ten Hag has lowered United's standard to match Ajax's.

For Erik ten Hag to think that leading Manchester United to the finals of the English FA Cup is a big achievement, then i think he truly doesn't understand the value of the club he's currently managing and that's the more reason why Manchester United management as a matter of urgency must start to make better plans for the club's managerial position if they don't have anyone in place already because their current manager simply do not have what it takes to help the club get back to their traditional status.
There are great managers that are currently out of job and it'll be the best decision for Manchester United to try sign one of them instead of allowing Erik ten Hag remain at the club beyond the current season. The club can not continue to be with a manager who continues to reduce the standard of the club.

I'm sure it's because they don't have a winning mentality that Arsenal can't really win any titles this season, just look at their failures in the EPL, they are always like that at the end of the season, they don't get consistent and satisfying results, the same goes for the UCL, they failed after winning. defeated by Munich, Arsenal should be able to learn a lot from each failure, don't know whether it is Arteta's fault as a coach or player, but Arteta probably knows that he should instill a winning mentality into the hearts of the players so they can play well until the end of the season.

Too many schedules make it increasingly busy and little time for rest, perhaps due to mental factors and also the player's stamina. I think Arteta needs to learn to rotate players a lot and try to approach the players so that there can be a relationship between the coach and the players because it is important to at least be able to build mentality and know when players who have to be played and not, I think if Arteta fails again this season, he has a lot to learn to improve it next season, I think it's a tough job but apart from that Arsenal need additional players to be able to make the team strength much better than the season This.
I have to agree with you. Because that is the reality we can see from Arsenal in their last few seasons with Arteta. Their mentality doesn't seem to be very ready, different from Man City, which always has a winning mentality and high self-confidence. But so far Arteta is still a coach who deserves to be appreciated because Arsenal continues to improve their performance under his coaching from season to season. Maybe this season Arsenal could fail in the UCL, but next season it is possible that Arsenal will be better prepared with the addition of several new players who can strengthen the squad better. In the EPL, the season is still continuing even though it is at the end of the season. But Arsenal's hope is still there, even though it is small. Arsenal just have to keep winning and hope Man City drops points. But the problem is that Man City may not lose any more points in the remaining matches this season.
There's no doubt to the fact that Arsenal as a team in different occasions in the English Premier League season,  Arsenal were the best team in the league until the last games 10 games when they begin to underperform and would eventually lose the title since they last won it in 2004. This season as well, they've been very impressive just like they were last season but their result of last two weekends saw reigning champions Manchester City overtake them in the league which has attracted many criticisms to the club in general and their manager in particular. Yesterday, they defeated Wolves to return back to the summit of the league standings and I think the result should make us give them a benefit of doubt that they're going to do better this season

Al Nassr Football Club was founded 68 years ago on 24th October 1955. Majed Ahmed Abdullah is Al Nassr's all-time top scorer. I thought a new history would be written when Cristiano Ronaldo joined the team in 2023. But it is understood that Cristiano Ronaldo is old, and making a new history with him is no longer possible. The packed stadium eagerly waits to witness the magic of Cristiano Ronaldo's feet. But he has not been able to show any magic so far to attract the audience. Hopefully, he can fulfill the expectations of Cristiano Ronaldo fans very soon.
The age factor has indeed limited Cristiano Ronaldo. And actually the performance has also decreased quite clearly. Because after all, he is now more than 39 years old. And actually it is still quite extraordinary to see that Cristiano Ronaldo is still able to become the top scorer in a competition even though it is in the SPL. Because currently many other European players are also in the SPL. but still no one can compete with the number of goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo this season. And I think it is also a miracle that he shows at his age, which is no longer young. Because other players might have lost their sharpness in scoring lots of goals when they reach the age of 39, but Cristiano Ronaldo is different. Cristiano Ronaldo's only failure in the SPL was that he failed to bring Al-Nassr to become champions this season and last season. But we still have hope for next season. That is if the Al-nassr club can improve the Al-nassr back line which has not been very reliable this season.
Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al Nassr when he was almost 38 years of age but that hasn't stopped him from being a great player for the Saudi club as he's scored incredible number of goals in his first season one and half season with the club. Becoming the club's top scorer might not be achieved by Cristiano Ronaldo until he leaves the club but there's no doubt to the fact that his current goal ratio per game since he joined the club is the best in the club's history.
At his current age of 39 years, Cristiano Ronaldo is still the leading scorer in the Saudi Pro League this season and is very likely to finish the season with the golden boot award if the league. Cristiano Ronaldo is simply doing his best if you ask me just that his numerous number of goals didn't help his club to get sr the top of the Saudi Pro League table which I think is more of a concern to him than personal accolades
