⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

It breaks my heart to see how fans criticize Pep Guardiola for Manchester City poor performance in this last five games. Pep said it before, the Premier League is very competitive and it is almost impossible for any team to consistently dominate for a very long period of time. A temporary dip in form should not overshadow the consistency and progress he has brought to Manchester City. Similarly, the challenges Real Madrid is facing under Carlo Ancelotti do not necessarily reflect poorly on him. The challenges may be largely affected by injuries. Both managers are world class and have set extraordinary high standards in their clubs.

No need to feel a heart break as Pep Guardiola is the richest coach in the world, does not have health issues and the worst that can happen in his life is to get fired and immediately become richer again.

But I know what you are talking about of course I agree and fans don't have a reason to criticize him if you look at the number of titles that he won for Manchester City. I think when the fans were booing, it was not so much against Pep Guardiola, but against the attitude the Manchester City players have shown towards the end of the game and how they got wrecked by Feyeenord. This wasn't what anyone would expect or want to see.

But they will be back on their feet very soon. They haven't unlearnt how to play football.

“I don't know. What I know is that Kevin will decide by himself, like David Silva or others did..." was the exact response of Pep Guardiola when he was asked if Kelvin De Bruyne will stay or leave at the end of the current season. The Manchester City midfielder's  involvement for his club this season have been limited by injuries that's sidelined him. Personally I think his time at City is up so it'll be better for him to leave at the end of the season
 
 

Pep Guardiola will be losing another quality player and the Manchester city team will be falling apart soon. With the way that Manchester city have being playing, that's enough reason for Kelvin De Bruyne to decide not to stay at Manchester city again. He'll want to leave to Saudi Arabia that he'll be paid well and play less important games. He has already won everything except the world cup therefore he has nothing to problem again in club football. I'll advise him to join the likes of Ronaldo in Al Nassr and continue to play high intensity football and also help the club in winning some trophies. If he decides to stay back at Manchester city, it'll be a big mistake.

While injuries have significantly limited his playing time, I would love to see Kevin De Bryune extend his stay at Manchester City and continue to play in the Premier League next season. Kevin De Bruyne's vision, creativity and ability to read the game makes him a key player for Manchester City. He’s one of the oldest City players in the squad, his experience would be invaluable for the team's continued success. I believe if he chooses to remain with Pep Guardiola next season, they would certainly win more trophies in the both Premier League and European competitions.

Yep, obviously, if Kevin De Breuny stays in Manchester city for the next season, he can probably generate something else. And to be very honest it's not the right time for Kevin De Breuny to leave the club because, as we all can see it the current situation of Manchester city is just awful. Pep needs Kevin De Bruyne. Pep is in serious trouble, he needs players like Kevin De Bruney and Rodri. Yes, you are right that Kevin De Bruney's injury has left people wondering whether De Bruney should be go or not. But I think Kevin De Bruney should get more extensions.

~snip~

I think you have touched on a very good point...

We don't see legendary footballers in clubs lately. Footballers want to earn more money. Clubs want to fire old footballers. Since everyone acts by maximizing their benefits, the concept of legendary footballers disappears over time...

Mohamed Salah could be a legend for Liverpool, but he will just be a statistic...

Hmmm, that's absolutely right !
Now days football has become rational stuff. Everyone is seeking for his own benefits, whether it's a player or club. I have seen so many players who leave one club for another club keeping in mind their childhood club, legacy etc. just for their own interest. It's mean to say, they just follow money. Just as Neymar left Barcelona for PSG, Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United for Al Nassar etc. 
 
Litrelly, I express my opinion on your words and say that now that old era is no more, now everything has changed; all players, coaches, staff, clubs prefer only money. They don't even imagine Legacy, they like money.

Ruud van Nistelrooy fate did not stop here, after he decided to leave Man United management, Leicester City finally appointed him as a coach. The deal seems to have happened. If so the positive trend can continue and Ruud will prove himself worthy. However it is not certain whether it will happen this season or wait for next season.

If he has to leave then in my opinion it is not because Manchester City are not in good shape but because the club did not extend his contract. De Bruyne is an important player in the team even though their performance is not in good shape now and if Manchester City let him go without a suitable replacement then their performance will be much worse. Losing him in the team makes Manchester City lose stability and even they have to suffer consecutive defeats, for now it is not the right condition for him to leave because I believe he is still needed enough.

Sallah has being Liverpool top scorer since he got to the club and he has score 12 goals for Liverpool this season in all competitions. I don't see why Liverpool is being reluctant to give him at least one year contract extension, or you they doubting his strength. Sallah has begin to lose interest in playing for Liverpool next season since there's no sign of contract extension, because he loves Liverpool Sallah was given an offer from SPL but he turned it down.

It seems that there is indeed drama behind all this, not only about Salah but also their mainstay defender Virgil van Dijk who has served for quite long time and has always played well so far, both of them have confusing drama polemic for their future with Liverpool.
There are still many rumors circulating, Salah is waiting for decision on contract extension but he has not received any certainty and on the other hand Salah has also rejected several tempting offers such as from Saudi, this should be consideration because he prefers to be with Liverpool rather than going to Saudi.
Moreover, Salah performance is still quite good, I don't know what the team management is thinking if they let him go and it could be an advantage for other team who get him because they don't have to pay transfer fee.

Based on some articles I've read, there are several reasons for disagreement on his new wages, Salah's age, the availability of wingers on the market, and so on. You could also argue that the new transfer director believes Salah's numbers are not good enough at the end of the day, so you could also say it's simply incompetence if they let Salah go. Feels a bit weird considering the transfer team should be under Edward, who managed to get Salah, VVD, Robertson, etc in the past iirc.

It is not a bad appointment I think. Van Nistelrooy has some charisma and he is not one of those guys who looks like a wanna be coach without authority. He had his experience with Manchester United and Leicester City needs a change. I usually don't like it too much when clubs decide to take big risks with their managers, but in this I see some potential. I think he is a decent guy that players will listen to.

But why do you say that they finally appointed him when afterwards you let everyone know that it is not known whether he will come this year or next year? What kind of deal is it when a club undermines their actual coach by sealing a deal with another coach and then not letting everyone know what the timing of the new arrangement is going to be? That would be a bad course of action.

Glad to see Leicester city is taking Van Nistelrooy to be their next manager. I have faith they will get a bump once Nistelrooy will come there very soon. I was thinking if Potter would take the job, but happy to see it's not happening.

I'm only wonder what Leicester fans feel to see their club put Nistelrooy in their list. I personally prefer them to take Moyes. It's because Moyes is more experienced in the EPL. I know they haven't tried this before.  I hope they will be fortunate enough.

Manchester City need to change the goalkeeper, Ederson play like shit recently.

I suggest Manchester City to sign De Gea, I'm sure everyone will happy with this transfer, Manchester City will get a great goalkeeper, while De Gea will happy to play in big team, Fiorentina will happy to get a lot of money from the transfer.

Fuck the "De Gea can't build up", a goalkeeper must able to made great saves, not play like a midfielder.

He has never been a great goalkeeper,  he just has a side who knows how to score goals and at same time, a great defence to complement his performance.

David De Gea? What a joke! Even if you offer him more money than whatever he's currently earning,  I don't see him leaving. I wonder how Manchester United fans will see him. He will not want to do that. Secondly,  City need to build a squad around youngins not aged players.

Yeah, David De Gea distribution shiit. Football evolved already,  yeah, he remains a good one who saves well and has a quick reflex.

This is good news but not good enough for United fans who are still not willing to let Ruud van Nistelrooy go and coach another club

There was a lot of speculation and reaction especially their unwillingness if Ruud left Old Trafford before, and now Ruud started his career at Leicester which is still in the same competition with Manchester United which will make this even more inflamed But I actually like the move made by Ruud. Although it cannot be denied that for now Leicester is still smaller than Manchester United but this is a good step to start from scratch because after all at this time Ruud must continue to be able to prove himself that he can indeed be a coach worthy of consideration in the future considering the current era is starting to be irregular apart from Pep who is still triumphant even though he is currently also having problems for young coaches.

Ruud is a very positive coach, his move to Leicester will add curiosity for Man U, because during his regime as the interim Coach he dealt with Leicester City. So the team would want to defeat the red devils will the help of Ruud. And when that happens it'll be a controversy between the Manchester fans who never wanted him to leave the club. However, they have the best purpose of allowing him to leave but, as usual a manager like Van will probably have offers due to his great performance as an Interim Coach at Man U.

Wow, a big congratulations to him, it's well deserved, with the kind of performance he has shown as the caretaker manager of Manchester united, I believe that he is the ideal choice for Leicester city, because he knows the English premier league very well and he will certainly knows how to navigate his team to victory, especially against team with the same level as Leicester.

Secondly, I was very disappointed when I saw graham potter being link with the Leicester city job, I was like how?
Are they trying to move from frying pan to fire? Because to me he was the most clueless and incompetence manager I have ever seen, and what really annoys me the most about him is that he is mostly less concerned about his team performance, especially when he was managing Chelsea, and it's because of how incompetent he is, from that time till now, no club has hired him, so  was when I saw this news of rud van nistelrooy given the Leicester city job, I was a bit relieve, because am quite certain that the club is now in a good hands,  that's what I am very much positive of.

who do you say are not willing to let  Ruud van Nistelrooy coach another club? same guy that gave them a very good result while he served as the interim coach of the club pending Amorim's full takeover and was sent off immediately Amorim came into the team even when he was willing to work work under amorim even if it is at the level of an assistant coach? this is someone's career we are talking of here and it's good he can now take full charge of a team that is still struggling and if he is able to bring them up the table, that's going to be a good start for his full time coaching career at the premier league. take it or leave it, amorim will struggle a while with Manchester united based on the fact that he is trying to change the formation of the team into something that's different from what they are used to and once this man start winning games at Leicester city, its going to easily get at united fans who will start making Amorims stay at united very difficult. it's a good one for  Ruud van Nistelrooy and I'm happy he is right back at it in the premier league. Leicester is not an entirely bad club after all.

I believe Liverpool's management knows what they're doing and they'll still extend his contract even though it's for a year, I know selling Salah would come with lots if profits for them but their are some players you don't easily lose in a team and Salah is one of them, he's like the best player in that team if not the best and has helped them right from Jurgen Klopp's regime till this point therefore he deserves the honour from the management, the fans love him infact he's their favourite and losing him would be very disappointing to the fans. I think the management won't want to disappoint their loyal fans who's stood by them in both tough and good times therefore Mo Salah's contract might be extended for about a year or more if possible. However if peradventurely they decide to release or sell him off for profits, it would be quite difficult to find a youngster to replace Salah for the moment.

Wether Liverpool extends Salah 's contract or not, I don't think the player has anything to lose because he has won it all at Liverpool, he might as well just decide to move to the middle east, maybe Saudi or Qatar, I think a lot of clubs would be dying to have him wear their shirt, so it's left for Liverpool to decide if they would love to retain him or not because their silence is creating so much suspicion about the Salah 's future.

 On the side of Mohammed Salah he still have his heart for the club. We all know that he is still in a good shape and has been very proactive for the club too,  and this should make the coach persuade the club to extend his contract to one or two years, except the coach thinks otherwise.

Mohamed Salah has played for Liverpool for a long time and has achieved everything in a Liverpool jersey, so he will surely accept the farewell with a smile. He is still performing regularly for Liverpool, but if you think about it, there may be discussions that he may not be available in Liverpool next season. As he is an older player, Liverpool will try to sell him next season and replace him with a young and talented player. On the other hand, since Md. Salah is still fully ready to play, if Liverpool wants to sell him, there must be a big offer for him from Saudi Arabia or Qatar, and he must accept that offer and go to play in either Qatar or Saudi Arabia. But the thing to be seen is how Liverpool think about him.

Yeah I don't see anything wrong, it's actually a good thing.

People have seen Van Nistelrooy improve Manchester United performance, if Manchester United can't be successful with Amorim and Van Nistelrooy make Leicester City successful, this will make Manchester United willing to spend a lot money to hijack Van Nistelrooy.

Van Nistelrooy deserves to improve his reputation, it's Manchester United that in loss.

If so the positive trend can continue and Ruud will prove himself worthy. However it is not certain whether it will happen this season or wait for next season.

I think Leicester City will immediately take advantage of the opportunity as soon as possible because all teams in the Premier League have seen how Ruud van Nistelrooy was able to change the atmosphere at Manchester United in an instant when Ten Hag was fired. This means that Leicester City will not delay it for too long if the management can immediately use Ruud van Nistelrooy as the team coach this season and from some news that I have read, it is possible that it could be realized this season.

I knew it that after the brilliant performance of Van Nistelrooy in United those few weeks, that he would get a coaching job because he has sold himself to the world for them to see that he has the quality of a good coach. When I saw the new this morning I smiled, because Leicester City was able to go for him very fast before some other clubs will go for him. I believe that Van Nistelrooy will make a difference in the club and bring them to the lime light.

In my opinion Liverpool who have not made an offer to Moh Salah is a dilemma. I mean Liverpool seems to need a regeneration of Moh Salah replacement. Although I admit he is still worthy, still very on fire, but with Liverpool rather silent situation, it indicates that they are using the time to prepare a younger replacement figure for a long-term project.

I would say giving him at least an offer would be fine, not even offering something is the problem. If Liverpool offered him something and Salah turned it down, then we could say that maybe Salah is wrong about rejecting the offer, or maybe we need to see the offer first, but that doesn't mean that Liverpool is right at the moment, they are wrong for not even offering something to him, and I am sure they will do that soon enough after all of this talk, because he came out about it himself, and I bet that the yare going to talk about this together with the agent and find what they can do. They wouldn't want him for another 4-5 years, so we know that the contract offer has to be maximum 2 more seasons, maybe even one more season if possible.

They will offer something to him. But both sides have reasons to act the way they act. Salah has been playing with the thought to leave the club I think two years ago or so and maybe Liverpool didn't like it that much. Now they want him to play his best season ever and then they will make him an offer. There is no point for either side to make a move now unless Liverpool would pay him so much that he would immediately say yes. But Salah is playing poker and so is Liverpool. They can wait until half the season is over and then have those talks about contract extension. They know it is going to be expensive anyway as he could leave the club for free.
