⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[emrecemsan]

Chelsea just want to do everything they can to fix things and start performing better in the English Premier League. They don't care about whatever amount of money they spend these days. Because they are already very rich and they can afford any player they want. This is a really risky action for them maybe as they are doing this in a hurry in the winter transfer window. New transfers will need time to adapt to the team most probably. There are quite many newcomers in the end.

The sooner they adapt the better of course. The gap with the 5th-placed team is still not impossible to close up. There are many teams between though but Chelsea are still in a position that they can fight for a place in European tournaments.

Manchester United has release information based on this. They confirmed that all charges against Greenwood has been dropped but that the club need to conduct her own process and determine whether or not he will continue playing for Manchester United. So we will be optimistic

I think Manchester United are been careful with this Greenwood saga. Him being cleared off the charges doesn’t mean he is innocent and United rushing to bring him back to the team could raise eyebrows. If after investigation he his deemed fit to play for united then the suggestion I saw that he should be allowed to train with the U23 should be implemented then he could be with the first team at the preseason.

Chelsea has seen us showing how great they are, they are the ones who have taken advantage of this transfer window the most, it is a very good thing, everyone hopes for the best move from Graham, and we all hope that they can do their best, I am very hopeful that they can come true They have to give good results yes or yes, otherwise it will be the goodbye of Chelsea's always beloved director, of course we also have to understand something, they must quickly join the team to what Graham dedicates it and be able to be more successful, I think that Joao Féliz learned his lesson and I don't think they will give him another red card again.

Chelsea ditch Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Champions League squad

New signings Enzo Fernandez, Mykhailo Mudryk and Joao Felix have all been named in the 25-man squad

I knew Potter will have a selection delma with for the champions league but it’s ok for him to drop Aubameyang because he hasn’t had any value this season and his selection will have to come at a detriment of another forward been dropped. Harvetz or Felix can slot in as the false nine. The big miss is Bardiashile who unfortunately can’t fit make the cut because of UCL rules of registering just 3 new players

I think bad impact happening for Mason Greenwood after all charges dropped and right now Manchester United have filled his name in the list for English Primer League squad. Its seems good news because Manchester United can use again his service and his potential as the best young player, but have little bad thing because he was absent for several months with Manchester United after his accusation.

Right now opportunity for Mason Greenwood after his name remaining back in Manchester United squad list how he can back to the top performance, still left several matches in Primer League and Mason Greenwood have chance show his potential to public and his career still not over yet.

Yes, that will be a problem, because he has been absent for so long without playing due to all the accusations directed at him. It will definitely take time for a player who has been out for a long time to find his best form in the game again. He still has time to restore his performance which was disturbed by what he experienced some time ago. If he can get his game back quickly I think Erik Ten Hag will also consider making him an option to play a lot.

I do not think that he was just sitting at home eating pizzas during this time neither, sure it will take a while before he gets back on form, but they can make him play in the training sessions as much as they possibly could and that would be lovely start, then they could give him like 10-20 minutes of playing time on games that are already decided give or take (easily winning or easily losing) and even give him full hour or so during FA cup (are they even still in it?) and so forth.

All these combined, by the end of the season he would be ready to play for full 90 minutes. However, they don't even need him for that long, just playing last 20 minutes with fresh legs would be enough.

[CryptocurencyKing]

Newcastle are also reported to have joined the race to sign Jude Bellingham in the summer. However this doesn't seem a realistic transfer to me honestly.

Because there are already Real Madrid and Liverpool going after him. There is no way Newcastle can race with those teams for him. Of course I know that Newcastle would be ready to pay whatever he wants as they have a huge budget. But money isn't enough by itself in this. Newcastle don't have any achievement yet. Finishing the Premier League in top 4 isn't enough for Bellingham to choose them. He would like to sign for a team that have a much stronger squad. He would prefer a successful team as well.

However, he may move to Newcastle under the guise of a promising club. They started to strengthen very well and started to win as well. Everyone understands that it is almost impossible to strengthen once and try to beat everyone. Newcastle are still building their squad and they have excellent results and can achieve a lot in the future, so choosing this club is a prospect for the future

Newcastle uniteds owners haven’t even started spending yet due to FFP. But I don't think Newcastle can afford him. This guy wants to join one of the top clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester City or Liverpool. I don't think that there's any chance for Newcastle to sign him even if they win the EPL title. His future remains the subject of much speculation, with a number of leading European clubs said to be determined to sign him during this summer's transfer window.

And Enzo Fernández was the biggest one, it's impressive

Looks like Chelsea is trying to achieve something huge, not only for this season, but for the future, this is important, they hired young players:

Enzo - 22 years
Andrey Santos - 18 years
Noni Madueke - 20 years
Joao Felix - 23 years
David Fofana - 20 years
Mudryk - 22 years
Badiashile - 21 years

From here they are preparing for next season to be more competitive in the league and if they can play in European competition then also to be able to compete more later, but with all the new player material it will be a question of his coach Graham Potter whether he will be able to make Chelsea even better ? this will still be a testament to Potter or it could be that there will also be a change in their coaches

This is exactly what I am saying, when you look at the type of players that the owner of Chelsea is signing to the club you will understand that the Chelsea is willing to build a club for the future. Those guys are relatively young and energetic to move the club forward. This is the reason there are easily willing to give out Jorginho to Arsenal.

Speaking about Chelsea performance this season, I don't expect much from them because to enter the English Premier League top four is a very difficult task this season maybe from next season Chelsea will have their place back

Of course, Chelsea must try to be more competitive, they are not in their good form now. By signing some young talented/skillful players, they are trying to improve their performance and expect to get a better position in EPL (priority). They also should expect to get better results in other competitions, such as in FA Cup. However, signing those young players can't guarantee better performance. It depends on how the coach can manage the players, so they can show their best forms. But if Potter can't manage them properly, they may affect nothing to Chelsea performance.

I’m surprised no one is talking about this news. For me, it’s the biggest news this week, the 21 year old English player has been cleared of all charges. What’s the fate of Greenwood’s future in Manchester United and football? Will Manchester United finally terminate his contract or will we see him wearing the reds once again

At this time, even though he has been declared innocent and has been cleared of the case that happened to him, I still think it will be difficult for Greenwood or Manchester United to bring him back.
Looking at the current conditions and looking at some of the comments from a broader perspective, we are now divided into 2 camps between those who support and those who still condemn when he was released after committing violence.

I think it's a little tricky for Greenwood and still won't be able to play regardless existing results.

Mason Greenwood is one of the best young prospects in English football, it’s a shame he got himself involved in a such problems that almost cost his career. Hopefully this recent development on the case, he will coming back to the pitch again. Although things are not yet clear from club side but hopefully it will all be resolved soon and we will see Greenwood on the pitch again

Jorginho is going to be important in the upcoming times for Arsenal in my opinion. Because he is definitely a very experienced midfielder. That is going to come in very handy for Arsenal. Because I believe that Arsenal has lack experience, and Jorginho will be able to provide the experience that they need. Arsenal is already performing really well. I think that is why he will be able to complement his teammates very well.

At least we have to wait until he makes his debut. because this season, Jorginho has not shown very good performance when he was with Cheslea. in fact, Jorginho is just another alternative when Arsenal are at an impasse to bring in some of the young midfielders they are eyeing in the January transfer market. after all, Arsenal only signed him for 1.5 years, with an option to extend for another year.
However, we agree. at least Jorginho has a lot of experience that can help the Gunners' young squad. Jorginho is an intelligent player, has a lot of skills and experience which can be useful for his new team. I hope Jorginho can immediately adapt to the Gunners team, and help Arsenal realize their mission of winning a trophy this season.

Well, another thing is I believe Arsenal is going to find Jorginho to be the next regular penalty-taker. I honestly do not know what is the stats with him currently taking penalties. But I still remember the special jumping technique that he used to fake the goalkeepers while taking penalties.

That needs to be proven before we can say whether jorginho will be very important in arsenal or not. I guess that if potter has been making the right decision by letting him go to the arsenal. Chelsea will not be extending his transfer and he will be leaving with free transfer status in next transfer season. Jorginho has a chance to continue his career. he was a good guy. Arsenal has been performing so well now. I think that jorginho will make the midfielder of arsenal even better than before.
Let's see how good he will be playing for arsenal. Arsenal already known as the strongest candidate to win EPL this season.

I think everyone is expecting him to be useful for Arsenal. But at the same time, I think it is going to be a little foolish to expect too much from him. Because after all, he is a little old right now. And it is not going to be realistic to expect him to dictate everything in the field.

I find Chelsea exaggerating with the transfers and the size of the squad now. Aubameyang, for example, will probably not be able to play, so I wonder what logic the transfers are followed. The new owners are investing a lot of money, but I don't wish them any success with such campaigns, because you shouldn't be able to buy success with money.

[cytpoway121]

 because you shouldn't be able to buy success with money.

I want to disagree lol, if money is well spent then you should be able to attain success, and with Chelsea signing; they would get a successful season atleast 80% success rate. I have this believe because Chelsea didn't just splash the cash; they bought top talents, established talents and future prospect and all cannot fail practically or theoretically.

Finishing the Premier League in top 4 isn't enough for Bellingham to choose them. He would like to sign for a team that have a much stronger squad. He would prefer a successful team as well.

Newcastle for Jude Bellingham ? Hehehe this should be Newcastle trying to increase the demanded for Jude Bellingham, because there's no way he'll want to settle for a club that's not directly involved in the Champions League. Right now, Newcastle doing peng but there aim for the Champions League spot hasn't be secured completely.

Two possible clubs Jude Bellingham will possibly end with would be Liverpool ( He's Father's number one choice ) To Real Madrid which I don't see happening. So sad he'll miss such a big opportunity to play for Real Madrid at a young age. He'll have enough freedom to play since Luka Modric will be out of Real Madrid soon.

During the World Cup we already saw him chilling and smiling with Liverpool Captain after been asked if a possible move to Liverpool would be possible. My interpretation might go wrong but seems possible.

[arallmuus]

Whatever is going on there now, I don't know, but spending that much money in excess of what other clubs spend and then ending up with those results speaks volumes. A lot is obviously going wrong. Probably it is not only Potter who is to blame.

Its probably not potter but probably that given he has alot higher limit to spend on some players then he'd go for it. These fiasco transfers comes with consequences though as I believe Potter is next on the line to be kicked out of Chelsea if he still couldnt get points for Chelsea in probably 2 months or so. Kinda interesting to see how this fiasco will develop

[Ryu_Ar1]

right, because regardless of anything when there is money everything becomes more possible especially for Football because money can be everything.
We know there are many examples of teams that have grown very fast because of money. Madrid, Manchester City, Chelsea (Era Abramovich), PSG and maybe now there is a new one, namely Newcastle United. They can be said to be one of the favorite clubs when there is a stream of money there, so it is impossible to say that success cannot be bought with money.

[CLS63]

It could be the worst move for Aubameyang really. He shouldn't have come to Chelsea in the first place. Now he is even out of the Champions League squad. How can he motivate himself to play better now?

Besides I can't say that his performance at Chelsea has been more impressive than the one at Barcelona. He should have wanted to stay at Barcelona and wait for only Depay to leave instead. He could have still been a useful substitute for Lewandowski. His performance was already great there. Maybe he wanted to play more by coming to Chelsea but here we are. He isn't a very important player for the team currently seemingly.

[Queentoshi]

I don't think it is a reason to be impressed if a team is spending a lot of money for transfers. I agree though that FC Chelsea is definitely trying to achieve something big with this new team. I am not convinced though that now just because of those transfers FC Chelsea will now be automatically successful. Just look at what big international titles Paris Saint Germain has won since the sheikh took over and pumped hundreds of millions of € into the club. None at all.
Also i think the transfer of Enzo Fernandez is not impressive at all. To spend 130 Million € on a player that only has a market value of 55M€ is not an impressive achievement at all. It is a pretty bad transfer for Chelsea in my opinion, because they have paid way to much for him.

With the spending Chelesa has done in this transfer window everybody body will be expecting them to make top Four by the end of the season, they have spent a lot of money already, but it is not all about the signings, like Paris Saint German that has all the stars and have not still been able to win the champions league. Money can't buy you the Title if not PSG would have won the Champions League already. Chelsea rebuilding is going to take a little time, it is not going to happen overnight. Maybe by next season is when we are going to see the new Chelsea not this season.

[terrorJR]

Because of the end of the European transfer window, the pace of posts here has increased to comment on the transfers of each team hehehe.
Chelsea's team surprised me this season, I didn't expect them to spend that much money, take a look:

David Fofana - 20 years

It's not too surprising because they seemed to be in a hurry to bring in players even at prices that weren't really very reasonable they did in this transfer so that in my opinion a lot of money was wasted in this transfer.
But let's hope that Todd's rash decision will have a big impact on them in the current half of the season because if not then you can imagine how much they will lose.

[SatoPrincess]

In last few months we have too much talk about this new English sensation Jude Bellingham which is currently at the top target list of three clubs with most chances Real Madrid will steal the show even nothing is clear, but things are clearly indicating about this all and this could be big setback for the Liverpool because they were looking for this player and have all efforts to bring him to Anfield for their squad's strength which is currently struggling and having not good performance in last few matches and if they fail to qualify for the next season then surely things could be worst for them because with this situation could be more down, and they have to bring some stability in team and improvement in performance as well which helps them for having in hunt for the top four spots until end of this season which is now challenging for them with this performance and good change in top ranks of EPL league table.

Jude Bellingham has risen from an underdog to become one of the top targets in Europe. Recently I read Liverpool were interested in Bellingham but with the transfer window already closed and no official bid was presented by  Liverpool for the player I doubt there was any serious interest but Real Madrid seem to be more interested in signing Bellingham in the summer.

He could have still been a useful substitute for Lewandowski. His performance was already great there. Maybe he wanted to play more by coming to Chelsea but here we are. He isn't a very important player for the team currently seemingly.

One of the reasons why Aubameyang leaving Barcelona was because he wants to get more opportunities to play. Having Lewandowski makes Barcelona to send Aubameyang on the bench, so it was no chance for Aubameyang to play regularly and be the main striker. Sadly, he also sits on the bench when he comes to Chelsea. I don't know why Chelsea coach not select him as the main striker in every match. I think Aubameyang has everything to be Chelsea main striker. He is fast, accurate in shooting, and has the ability to deliver assists very well. Actually, he is an ideal striker for Chelsea, right?

[CryptoPanda]

The latest news from Depay now looks like he's almost fixed on becoming an Atletico player. It's not without reason that Barcelona made the decision to release this Dutch player for only € 3 million because Depay's contract will also expire in July this year, so they immediately bought it at a low price and of course this was not wasted by Atletico because it was previously rumored that they the closest.
Some other news says that Atletico have made a proposal with a 2.5 year contract for this Dutchman.

Yep, it looks like it's been confirmed that Depay will go to Atletico for the rest of the season this time.
Barcelona struck a deal straight away by letting Depay go for 3 million but there is an option that Barcelona secure the preferential purchase of Yannick Carrasco as part of the deal for Depay's arrival.
It might be a little worth it but the thing is Yannick Carrasco is also still very good for Atletico and if this happens it is clear they will still be limping down the flank.

Depay looks good in Atletico colors already, Atletico made a good move to bring Memphis Depay to their team and I'm sure he will make quite an impact in his new club. Barcelona no longer have plans with Memphis Depay anymore and it will be wise to cash in on him than losing him in the summer for free to Atletico Madrid. We shall see the outcome of this deal.

[Slow death]

From here they are preparing for next season to be more competitive in the league and if they can play in European competition then also to be able to compete more later, but with all the new player material it will be a question of his coach Graham Potter whether he will be able to make Chelsea even better ? this will still be a testament to Potter or it could be that there will also be a change in their coaches

The new owners are investing a lot of money, but I don't wish them any success with such campaigns, because you shouldn't be able to buy success with money.

maybe the chelsea coach is hiring a lot of players because in the future he has plans to release many other old players who are in the team but who are not bringing good results to the team, if he is thinking about it then it will be worth these signings because these old players Chelsea are not bringing good results. i think chelsea is doing well with the signings they have made, they are building a team capable of competing in the premiership and champions league and becoming champions, of course that only next season

something I've always realized over the years: to be successful in the world of soccer, you need money, a team with a lot of money is destined for success, that's something easy to see, I could give an example of teams that don't they were nothing but because a rich man bought the team that team became famous and strong
