⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[dezoel]

I think Osimhen could be an important name for Manchester United. Manchester United still has shortcomings in the attacking area. The Nigerian striker could be a significant advantage to overcome these shortcomings. Of course, it is important whether Osimhen wants to play for Manchester United. Because there are other teams that want to get him. As far as I remember, he came close to signing with Chelsea. Maybe Chelsea will want to transfer him again. In this case, the Nigerian footballer may get confused.

After what transpired between Chelsea and Victor Osimhen at the begining of this season, I don't think he would like to play for them again. Osimhen is an elite striker and as such will be in high demand when the transfer window opens officially in January. I think it would be a smart move for Manchester United to sign Osimhen. If the club decide to sign him he will add more power to their attack and can become the secret weapon that Ruben Amorim needs to kickstart his career in Manchester United.

I have to say, it is not really about Chelsea, it was Napoli who wanted more and that's why Osimhen cut ties with Napoli, he is not even playing for them anymore, and forced his release clause to drop down as well.

Chelsea wanted to get him, and would love to get him, but the fact is simple that they are not getting him at all due to price, and now that the price is down, I am sure they would love to get him, but looking at how they already have a decent striker, I can understand why they may not do that. Zirkzee is the issue with United, lets assume that they sold Hojlund, that's understandable, and get Osimhen, what are they going to do with Zirkzee?

They have way too many mediocre players they paid too much money for, they have to switch their mindset, and go for stars and pay a ton of money on superstars and stop buying these type of players. They can't just get Yoro, Zirkzee, Ugarda and Mazraoui and assume that all will be fine. They spent 170 million or so for these players, 170! I guarantee you, if they just got Osimhen instead of any of these, and kept last years team plus Osimhen, even that would have been better. They have to stop getting these 40-50 million range players, and look to spend 100 million or so, get superstars.

Bad news for Bayern Munich. 

I would like to say some things about Neuer situation at this team as well. First of all I have a big respect for him. He has already become a legendary goalkeeper for Bayern Munich undoubtedly.   

However the thing is, he has got very old now (38). He is making more mistakes than usual like that red card example in the Leverkusen game in the DFB Pokal. His general effort is also not like the old times anymore which is natural.

At this point they should think about replacing him with a reliable goalkeeper. There are Peretz and Ulreich but I believe they can find a much better candidate for the main goalkeeper position.

Bayern Munich still trusted Neuer and that would later affect the team if he left the team, the team was supposed to have a good second goalkeeper that would help the team when Neuer was injured but they still believed him more than any other goalkeeper, Bayern Munich has a second goalkeeper but they don't trust him that much as they trust Neuer, No matter how it is now if Real Madrid goalkeeper is injured they have a second goalkeeper which is Lunin and he can help the team and face many challenges.

Neuer is one of the best Goalkeeper that I have ever seen but at his age now it will be good if the team lets him and have a good life in another team, Neuer made a mistake and that affected their last match against Leverkusen, and there is a new that I see that he is injured, Bayern Munich needs to find a good goalkeeper that can replace Neuer so that even if he leaves the team they won't miss him.

No offence but truth be told, most Manchester United fans are full of shit, they hardly find space to rationally analyse issues without mixing emotions. They refuse to accept the real deal that ETH was just a vapour in the midst of the problems plaguing the club. Today ETH is no more in the picture but the problem of poor performance still persist even after one of the best coach Amorim is still in charge. Now what does this makes for those shitty fans who ain't seeing anything wrong with their players?

Don't take it too seriously because it's already an open secret. They still hope for the golden era under Sir Alex Ferguson to return and can't accept the reality. So the fact is, Man United players and coaches will have a hard time. Erik Ten Hag is gone and Amorim can't promise anything for now.

Fans of a football club can be very emotional and sometimes it is difficult to see the problem objectively, especially when it comes to the club their love so much so far, so indeed sometimes we see the attitude of manchester united fans looks sometimes annoying even though they actually just want to see their team get back on their feet, but honestly, sometimes  I see they are too very confident when only winning one match and with excessive euphoria as if they have won the league .

[SquallLeonhart]

Manchester United is not facing this issue for the first time, they had this issue for a decade now, and it's just another season where they are bad. I am sure that they are going to eventually be better, and then worse again, it happens all the time. They had seasons where they finished second and third in the last ten years, but had finishes outside of top six as well, both happened. Meaning that they are going to have a good season again this year, this one is just the bad one and they have to accept that, there is really nothing else to do.

I understand how the team must be feeling and how the fans are feeling and I know that they want to win and they want to do better, but that's just not happening and I doubt that it will happen this season. Maybe next season, after some more transfers, like maybe Osimhen, maybe someone else, whoever they get, after some transfers, they may do better and the results could improve, but not for now.

However, every fan wants to see the club they support will get good results. Many fans act stupidly with a little good result and become very excited. But there are also more mature fans who see and support the steps taken by the club for a longer time.
Many football observers have said that Amorim will not be able to change the United team to be very scary in the Premier League. he needs time to make his team. and fans should be more mature to know that.

And Bayern Munich mistake never prepared the right replacement. They still make Neuer the main guard when other clubs in Europe, especially big clubs, have begun to regenerate. Bayern Munich needs a younger substitute figure, and now the club has not found the right person. When Bayern Munich has no preparation, after Neuer departure this can result in a setback, especially defense at the goalkeeper.

Chill my friend, Bayern's still having Daniel Peretz to become a temporary GK. I have seen iMiaSanMia reported them are considering Karius or sign a new GK from Bundesliga. Peretz has to play for a few weeks before he gets his backup. We're only a few weeks away from the winter transfer season, and i think it will be solved as soon as possible.

I'm not thinking this is a serious problem. They're still having Peretz available, and hopefully, he shows his class. He must play carefully until the opening of winter window.

For goalkeeper position i think lost Manuel Neuer is not a big deal for Bayern Munich because at their current squad Bayern Munich has Sven Ulreich as 2nd goalkeeper and Daniel Peretz as their 3rd goalkeeper so i think these players can be played while Manuel Neuer absense even last season when Manuel Neuer got long term injury Sven Ulreich can performing well at Bayern Munich defensive lines and in the term of quality i think whether it Sven Ulreich and Daniel Peretz is equal so it is not necessary to bought more goalkeeper this winter but indeed considering Manuel Neuer is not young anymore for long term i think this summer Bayern Munich should be give their priority to look for new goalkeeper as the replacement of Manuel Neuer

The English Premier League is tough, it only takes determination for an elite team to succeed and win big trophies. Perhaps Manchester United is probably not in gooe form, because the owners are not making the right decision for the club. The past coaches to handle Manchester United didn't do better from their end, they failed terribly to elevate the club to new standards, thereby things was pretty rough on their ends. Ruben Amorim is one good change to happen to Manchester united this season. His arrival was tied to be in good shape for the club, having the odds of making new development, we should be awared that things like this do take time.

This chart looks so much better that it really is, but the issue here is that all of them were not particularly good. Sir Alex Ferguson was around 65% - 66% win rate, doesn't sound like so much more, but it is quite a big difference compared to a trainer who is closer to the 50% rate. Pep Guardiola has more than 70%, which is very impressive as an average number. If he wins 27 games on average per Premier League season, this puts him at 81 points from the wins only. Then you have to add the draws on top of that and this is the reason why he won six titles in the last years years I think. Manchester United won't have in excess of 80 points anytime soon.

Now Man Utd looks a little better, Amorim's arrival is expected to have a big impact on the team's progress, but still he is not a wizard, it takes time and strong determination besides that management must fully support the project that will be planned by the coach.

Inwestour are you replying to Lida93's comments about Manchester United fans with the same words as his? I don't see a point of you doing this, which I think you made it mistake of not entering your own reply to his comment concerning Manchester United and its poor performance of players.

Nevertheless, the majority of Manchester United fans know that their main problem is their players. They need to have a reshuffling of their whole players for new ones. January transfer window will be the time for Amorim to sign and sell out players he doesn't need in the Manchester United squad. Manchester United can't be having poor performance because of players who are not giving their best for Manchester United. A tough decision must take effect by the management if they want to see tremendous growth in the performance of Manchester United players

Hmmm, that's really devastated!
To be very honest it's a good time for Manuel Neur to hang up his gloves and go home. Because now he has become too old, his body didn't have any good quality to maintain his fit as faddle. I mean now his body doesn't have the ability to compete with injuries. Despite Manuel Neur still having a strong strength of passion to train hardly. Due to this reason, Manuel Neur also gets injuries, and Bayern Munich also has to face difficulties. 
 
So I think that Manuel Neur should not play anymore. He should leave Bayern Munich to give another goalkeeper a chance to play. Sven Ulreich is also a good goalkeeper Bayern Munich should try him. If he has the competence, he has the right to perform the duty of Manuel Neuer. Manuel Neur makes many mistakes because of his weak body. So Bayern Munich needs someone who has good wealth as well as good quality.

[beerlover]

If Man United buys the 2 players at once, what is worrying is not about the line-up because I think it would be very good for Man United's front line if they have an effective striker, but what is worrying is about the cost because most likely the club will limit excessive spending and Amorim also cannot buy players who are in different positions.

I honestly believe that Gyokeres won't come to United, just because Amorim managed him doesn't mean that they are going to work again, not that they wouldn't love to, but makes no sense to carry players everywhere you go. I also honestly believe that Gyokeres isn't as good as people claim him to be, yes he fit the system great at sporting and scored bunch of goals but look at his past in England and you will see that he wasn't that great and he is not going to be making that much of a big change at all, we need to remember how this isn't as big of a deal if they could just get Osimhen.

They need to get rid of some players too, they have way too many bad players, so it is not just about getting new ones, it's also about getting rid of old ones that ruined the teams chemistry. For one, I would sell Antony for free, literally would give him away, as long as he is gone, the team will be better. Lets see what kind of transfers they will do, but I have less hope than usual.

Osimhen is an elite striker and as such will be in high demand when the transfer window opens officially in January. I think it would be a smart move for Manchester United to sign Osimhen. If the club decide to sign him he will add more power to their attack and can become the secret weapon that Ruben Amorim needs to kickstart his career in Manchester United.

I doubt Chelsea really wants Osimhen at this point as they already have Nicolas Jackson who is in great form. So I think it would be unwise to bring in a new striker who could threaten Jackson's position because they both will compete to be a starter and that could worsen their morale. It would be different if Chelsea didn't have a productive striker, so Osimhen could be a good option and it looks like this is the condition that Man United is facing.

You cannot compare Osimhen with Nicolas Jackson. Victor Osimhen is a proven striker with track record of success than Jackson and definitely will add more dynamism to their attacking line. I think the only reason Chelsea might not be interested would be given to the fact of his high wage demand and his huge transfer fee. Asides from this, there is no reason why Enzo Maresca wouldn’t want Osimhen.

[Antotena]

Man Utd has not felt the champion again for a decade, the achievements they have obtained in that time span are only runner up twice, the rest can be said to be an ordinary club, as you said there are many factors that trigger their decline, we can't blame just one person or the coach, the club management also plays a big role in what happened.
Now Man Utd looks a little better, Amorim's arrival is expected to have a big impact on the team's progress, but still he is not a wizard, it takes time and strong determination besides that management must fully support the project that will be planned by the coach.

There is no team thag felt that heat like Chelsea, 3 season straight and they couldn't appear for once but I'm happy they are doing better right now staying at the top of the league, if they should be able to finish among the top four and don't win the trophy, they are secured way to the next season Champions League. If Chelsea can do it and get better, even Manchester United can do better but it's not the way they are playing mid games like this for the rest of their life.

Big dreams means big changes, Amorim just have to decide who is going to stay and who is going to leave the club for good. I can't even remember the last time I saw Rashford on my FYP, that's because they are now shadow on my screen unlike how they were hot some seasons back. Cassmiro stole the show of Manchester United one time and he is now a ghost in the club, so many replacement need to be done else they will just frustrate Amorim to another ETH2.0 and people will always blame the coach.

The current issue is that many Man Utd fans and supporters wanted an instant impact onnnñ the team particularly aiming top 4 position not minding the fact it takes some time to reposition the club, Amorim has his own tactics and philosophy adapting to his tactics and formation would initially be a big challenge to the playes, though results so far had been not very encouraging, however I think the team is making a gradual progress in their matches I watched and  hopefully Amorim would do the needful amendment to avoid unnecessary defeat against their opponents in their subsequent matches.

Chelsea is having some spectacular stats this season, they're underrated this season following the poor stats they recorded earlier in EPL but all that changed now because the team is formidable form. The board took out time to mapped presentable stats, pleasing routes for winning results. Chelsea headcoach, Enzo Maresca is not complaining when it comes to other players because he seems quite comfortable with the current state of his squad. He's having a nice time watching his players dismantled other oppositions, winning games is core duty of the team this season.

The comparison between Nicolas Jackson and Victor Osimhen is similar because they're both African. But when it comes to the qualities on the pitch, Osimhen beats the odds of having greater chance to start in elite team than Jackson. They're both main strikers for their individual clubs but it comes with price, solid form would push their market value higher.

Former Manchester United winger Luis Nani has officially decided to retire at the age of 38. Nani last played for Portuguese second division club Estrela Amadora, his career journey faded after leaving Manchester United in 2015. It seems that Nani will try his luck in the world of coaching, I still remember one of his iconic celebrations with Manchester United.

Luis Nani is a footballer who deserves respect. His Manchester United career was great. Also, he played great games for his national team. But I will remember him for turning Ronaldo's wonderful goal offside, Ronaldo was very angry towards him and Ronaldo was right in that position. I think it's a great memorable moment. I watch it with a smile whenever I see it... :)

Bad news for Bayern Munich. 

I would like to say some things about Neuer situation at this team as well. First of all I have a big respect for him. He has already become a legendary goalkeeper for Bayern Munich undoubtedly.   

Although in the end this is bad news but indeed by looking at his current age it is actually quite reasonable if Neuer must leave Alianz immediately if he looks at his current age with some aggressive ways of playing just like his prime, he is actually not too suitable to be at a big club even though there will definitely be some parties who still want him to stay at Bayern.

Bayern's mistake was not trying to regenerate from the start and this is actually quite fatal for me. Although in the last few seasons they have tried to do this even by successfully recruiting Yann Sommer but indeed the choices that ultimately always favor Neuer make the regeneration that should have been done in the previous few seasons a little hampered and now they have to try something new. Especially with statements from Fabrizio about Neuer like this, it is indeed a big possibility that this must be very possible to happen.

[red4slash]

It is still very possible in this case, although for now we certainly realize that Chelsea's performance has developed but for the productivity of the attack line, especially for the targetman they currently have, it is still not optimal.

Jackson still can't contribute more and actually extending Jackson's contract unreasonably makes Chelsea's own trouble I think so that when there is indeed no satisfaction from the coach regarding the attack line, Osimhen can still stay at Chelsea in the end.

We must be aware that money is sometimes not an obstacle for Chelsea and even in the last few seasons, Chelsea has always been loyal even though their performance continues to decline and now Maresca has tried his best to be better in terms of performance so Todd will likely give anything to support this.

In as much as Chelsea has been delivering a very top performance this season, I think they need a better man upfront. No doubt, Jackson has been offering his best, but I believe Chelsea will deliver better when there is a better man with experience upfront. The only problem now is that Jackson's contract was extended, which won't make any sense to use him as a second striker considering the amount on ground, except Todd doesn't care much, but how well will the FFP react?.

If there is any way Chelsea can balance their books, I would advise that they go for someone with quality. Oshimen will be preferable, but if Chelsea can get Gyokeres for a good amount without causing any form of imbalance to their book, then they should get him instead. And I think there needs to be some addition to the defense as well especially in that center back role. They need someone with a better experience.

He gave the best performance of his version but in fact seeing from the performance Jackson did actually it was still below his standard especially for a long and expensive contract of course so that when indeed he wants to be said to be worthy then in the end he must try more especially for the benchmark player with the best purchase to date is still based on Palmer for Chelsea so indeed Jackson's current performance still seems standard to me where he still cannot prove that he deserves to be a targetman.

For FFP issues in some EPL clubs sometimes it doesn't affect and the fact that until now Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City, which are examples that are quite loyal in purchasing, still have no problems, FFP is still safe it seems for Chelsea. Honestly, when talking about FFP in the EPL it actually still sounds quite lame so I don't think this will interfere if in the end Chelsea spend their money on players again.
