⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[bitgolden]

Indeed, Erik Ten Hag is very chaotic in handling a team. From the events that occurred at Bayer Leverkusen, it is likely that he will no longer be the target of other teams who are looking for coaches.
Not forming something new, but instead damaged the existing team with its establishment which was considered unclear as reported why he was fired from Leverkusen who had just completed two matches.

Rumors circulated that Bayer Leverkusen was preparing to glance at the former Legend of Real Madrid to rebuild as Xabi Alonso had done.

I am sure someone will eventually hire him again. I mean we all saw how he did at Manchester United, and for some reason Leverkusen still believed he could be the next one after Xabi leaves, we all knew that was a mistake but they did it anyway. So that means we are going to see him end up with another job like that. Leverkusen realized he wasn't the guy to do it after just three games or something, and I am sure some other team will regret getting him too.

But when you are at this high level and have this much brand power in your name, you end up getting jobs. Look at Mourinho for example, he was one of the best at his time, but for the past 5-6 seasons he has been nothing but a failure, sure he won conference league, but seriously nothing else and at leagues he sucks. So it's true that we should probably expect similar stuff for ETH. Or he could just go to Arabian league and make money.

Andre Onana is just under pressure, this one of the reasons he's not exploring and succeeding in Old Trafford. When he was in his previous clubs, nobody expected much from him because there have been divided attention to the players because the goalie is only present to do his best keeping saves but in Old Trafford, they expects every goalie to be at their best, besides he was fulfilling the shoes of David De Gea who everyone thought to be 3x times better but it reverse is the case.

Manchester United will struggle this season base on the unpredictable rigid foundation of Ruben Amorim. How can a manager have competent players and new signings and still been unable to accomplish top results. Anyways, let's give him time just like we gave Erik Ten Hag but ended up doing nothing for the club.

Another reason Onana seems to be under pressure is cause he's trying not just live up to the standard De Gea set, he also wants to surpass it and prove to the club that the same thing he did at Ajax and Inter ( which was to help them carry trophies) he could replicate at Man UTD but the mistake he made was thinking that he could do that alone. Onana is a very good goalkeeper no doubt but the fact that the defense is not strong, there's only so much weight he can carry. In the early period of his time at Old Trafford, he was covering the loose ends for the club but overtime, the pressure became too much for him. I feel that he should take some time to rest because at the moment, United are yet to find their footing, so it's either he doesn't start some games and take sometime to rest or he looks for another club where the expectations aren't much.

The latest Barcelona transfer news revealed that Barcelona terminated the contract of one of their defensive midfielders, Oriol Romeu, at the end of August. Romeu had been at Barcelona since July 19, 2023, signing from Girona. However, throughout his career, he was loaned to other clubs. He is now without a club at the age of 33.

Barcelona has actually confirmed Oriol Romeu's departure from the club, where he was a La Masia graduate before making his senior debut. The contract termination was a mutual agreement between Oriol and Barcelona. And Barcelona acknowledging his contributions and thanking him. The contract termination was also made to free up space on the wage bill to allow for the registration of new players, which was essential for the timely completion of the squad registration process (Source). Meanwhile Oriol Romeu has no certainty about which team he will play for in the next. It's possible he'll return to his former club, or even announce his retirement from football as a player. Well it all depends on Oriol's decision. I think his chances of playing are actually wide open to other teams. But they might not live up to his expectations.

That is very honest take on situation at Manchester United and you hit on some key points. Yes Andre Onana is under much of pressure as expectations for goalkeeper at club like that are huge and he is also being compared to fan favorite David De Gea. It is frustrating to see team struggle for results despite having good players and new signings. And according to comparison of past seasons  it raises big question of how much more time club should give him.

Onana has been with Man Utd for more than 2 seasons and should have realized that he is not a good fit for Man Utd. To save his career, going elsewhere is a way out, but who wants it? There is no one because Man Utd wants a high price, or another way is to ask him to be loaned out because of course with the arrival of a new goalkeeper and currently Amorim trusts Bayindir more, so Onana is only the third choice. I really feel that Onana's career will really stagnate if he stays at Man Utd for too long.

How do you feel about Liverpool's transfers this season? Are they effective? What are your predictions?

As an Arsenal fan, I hated how smart they were in this transfer window... IMO, three out of the ten signings are already effective ^{[Isak, Ekitike and Kerkez (quite impressed with how he performed against Arsenal)]} and the rest of them need more time to adapt to the Premier League ^{[having said that, I'm a bit disappointed with both Frimpong and Wirtz (so far)]}.

Manchester United may be in the spotlight this season like last time because we saw they have willingly ignored their important goalkeeper. Likewise it currently appears that they will now send their goalkeeper Andre Onana, to a Turkish club. The Turkish transfer window is currently open, meaning the Man United goalkeeper could now be linked with a move there. This team has added many expensive players this season but their results are still not meeting expectations, which is why they are now frustrated. However there is a surprise offer from Trabzonspor for their former goalkeeper, as a result they have agreed to this contract with this club and Andre Onana may join that club very soon, so he can try to start a new challenge at this club.

I really feel that Onana's career will really stagnate if he stays at Man Utd for too long.

Him staying at Manchester United can make him some money because he's still going to be paid despite him not playing. No clubs or not many will be that interested in him because he now has a bad record that not many clubs will what to associate with him. Conceding goals spoils the goalkeeper record but Onana leaving is going to be the best move for him because if he stays at Manchester united for too long, it can make him to lose form more than he currently is because he won't be playing. Getting a move out of the club in January should be his next target and not allowing the career he should have had to go to waste.

I can't believe it. I can't believe to see how MU tries to send Onana to the club that is none know about. It seems to me club has no trust on him, and wanna get rid him off the club. If it was La Liga or Serie a, i'm find. However, they wanted him join in the Turkish league club.
I expect rejecting this offer may make Onana gets seat belt on his bench. It's obviously dilemma for him whether to stay but get no minutes or leave with the possibility to stay there forever.

Meanwhile, on the defensive side, Arsenal also made a fairly bold decision, including a very young player—a super kid, I mean?—and now, Max Dowman is the youngest Champions League player.

This news gives me joy. I feel proud for what this kid is becoming, breaking out from Hale end academy to featuring for the first team at just 15. I also have to commend the club for doing a great job with the academy, they have made a really bold decision to include him in the club’s champions league squad for this season, I hope he makes good use of the opportunity.

Barcelona is really a team that can't be grateful, they want a player, but they can't able to pay high salary. Once the player is not useful anymore for them, they kick the player whenever they want.

I hope Romeu will get a team who interested with him, although it could be from unpopular league.

Trabzonspor is a Turkish team in first league, I agree the name is unknown for most people, but they're playing in Turkish first league, not something that really bad. Let's see Onana performance on there, if he's still bad in Turkish league, I have no words for him.

There is not surprising about the decision of Manchester United to either loan Onana or sell him out because he is aware that he is not doing well as a goal keeper for the team, Manchester United is looking for a way to offload him since they have gotten a new replacement for him but they are not going to determine where the player should go it is obvious that the only club that is interested in the poor performance of the goal keeper is the Turkish team and the team will accept the offer if they meet up to the demand. Onana has the right to reject the move but you already know what he will become at Manchester United a bench warner.

From reports that I got the last time I visited Fabrizio Romano's page, Gabriel jesus was excluded from Arsenal's Champion's league squad for this season, which means there is a chance of him using the exit in January, except he decides to stay, and Arsenal decides to include him in the squad in January. But this is quite a massive opportunity for the young talent. Not so many players gets this early kinds of opportunities, but I guess he deserved it after showing a brilliant performance during preseason.

I feel this young lad has enough to become great, but the question now lies on how well the manager can manage him. We haven't even seen the best of Nwaneri yet due to lack of quality playing time. Let's see what happens this season.

The Onana transfer seems finalized now. We'll be watching him at Trabzonspor this season, a transfer that still strikes me as absurd. If Onana had wanted to, he could have joined a much better team.
Trabzonspor is trying to build a strong squad and they've had a strong start to the season. It's not easy to win the Turkish championship with rivals like Galatasaray. Still, they'll help increase the league competition

Exactly my point, the pressure is too much on any player that plays for Manchester United not just Onana but any player that's in that Manchester United team, like I don't really know the color of Erik Ten Hangs problem if not I see nothing wrong with David De Gea but the coach said he needs someone more confident with the ball and now that has really cost Manchester United a lot aside there internal problems, and for Ruben Amorin I'm still seeing Erik Ten Hang pro in him because he's first and second fixture in the league is really not impressive let it don't be that they will give him more time then regret it later.

It's a loan deal and if he's smart, he should take it. He'll still be paid his full salary and play more games than he would if he stayed at United. If he performs well at Trabzonspor, he can make a permanent move to another club in the summer window. But if he declines the offer, he might be relegated from the second to the fourth choice goalkeeper.

Onana has the right to reject the move but you already know what he will become at Manchester United a bench warner.

The Turkish Super Lig transfer window is still open, so it makes sense why Manchester United is using it to push Onana out. Besides, Manchester United has also signed another goalkeeper, Senne Lammens, so at this point Onana might not have any other choice. In my opinion, Manchester United is trying to get rid of Onana subtly.

Ruben Amorim will clearly give more trust to Altay Bayindir and Senne Lammens in the future, and it's a sure thing that Onana will be on the bench all season. It's very likely that Onana will agree to the loan deal, and perhaps with Trabzonspor he can rediscover his best form.
