⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Man Utd board are still in support of Mourinho according to BBC - https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/sport/amp/football/45768138

They'll probably keep Mou around until they find a new replacement, that's why the board keeps dismissing such reports of Mou getting sacked. There are rumours about Laurent Blanc taking over Man Utd, there are also rumours about Carrick as an interim for the rest of the season LOL

But  I still think it's way too early in the season to be talking about a manager getting sacked, they're only 5 points away from the top 4 in the EPL, and 2nd in the CL group. As far as we know the team could go into a winning streak out of nowhere and start a "recovery phase".

^  You really think United could go on a winning streak if things stay the same?  I mean they could (a little bit.  Lol), but not enough to assure them to be in the top 4 since they'll be competing vs Arsenal and the Spurs for it.

I definitely want to him to stay but that's going to depend on his attitude towards his players and he is the one that has to change because it's not respectful for managers to be constantly at war with his players. It doesn't bode well for three team at all.

We can bet witch will be sacked first
Lopetegui Kovac or Mou

Bayern is playing tragic football not so strange from old boys Bayern
Real has big problems with injured players
Both in Bayern and Man United there is some players rebel against coach

I am betting that Jose Mourinho is going to be the first one to be sacked and that’s because he has lost the dressing room and his players are totally against him but with Lopetegui and Kovac, the reason they are playing badly is tactical.

It's obvious Jose Morinho might not last the season if he keeps playing this way and the players rebellion is also a serious factor that might send him out but I still believe sacking him wouldn't be the solution Manchester needs at the moment and the way they are running the club ought to change.

^  But who would replace him at midseason?  Zidane?  Will he get United out of this rut and finish at top 4?  Doubt it, looking at how strong Chelsea, Arsenal and the Spurs are (the clubs likely to fight for third and fourth).

Monaco got rid of Leonardo Jardim and appointed Thierry Henry as the new manager.  At first glance I think it's a little unfair.  I mean what kind of results was the Monaco board expecting?  They sold Mbappe, Lemar, Bernardo Silva and Mendy which Jardim himself helped develop.  Lol.

I think he'll do well at United if the club is willing to rebuild, develop players and start from scratch again.

Hey indeed this is a very sad decision but then this is the modern day football, Monaco choose money over a coach who got them a league title, developed so many stars and made the club coffers rich. I like Henry a lot, but with no managerial experience he's a risky bet wonder what'll he able to do in mid season to change Monaco fortunes.

In another Manchester United news Juventus coach was approached to take over Mourinho, but he's rejected the chance to come during mid season, but he might be tempted to join next season. I'm not really sure he's the right kind of guy, Juventus have no competition in Italian league not sure he'll do good in premier league opinions?

That's desperation. Btw, according to L'Equipe, they signed Henry for 3 years ¹, that sounds like a risky move, I mean, I think It would've been better to sign him for a few months (until the end of the season, perhaps), then evaluate how he performs and then decide whether he should get a contract extension or not.

Maybe it was enough for Jardim
He had so many successes with Monaco now Monaco will fight to avoid relegation
I am sure  Jardim will find job very soon

It is very possible that first coach what will lose job will be Kovac from Bayern
Only Matheus is supporting his blaming players but especially management for not contracting young players. Bayern looks like old boys club to me

Yeah not sure what Monaco were expecting literally selling everybody who made them good. No team can perform a previous levels when selling all their best players. Good luck to Henry, he’s going to need it.

It seems like the move of Lucas Paqueta to AC Milan is a done deal thanks to their new sporting director, Leonardo,the player is set to join during the January transfer window as the medicals already took place on October 10. But it seems like Milan is not yet finish on looking for upgrades as well as replacements in their midfield. Currently their targets are the start of Zenit, Leandro Paredes, and the Brescia player dubbed as the next Andrea Pirlo, Sandro Tonali which is a great wonderkid to add for Milan's future.

As the confrontation between Juventus and Manchester United approaches, Italian newspapers are hesitant to say that Jose's successor is not Zidane, but Allegri, and then Zidane will be the successor to Allegri at the end of the season!

Of course this is if Jose left and did not come out of the ashes with something to offer at the end.

The game against Newcastle definitely gave Mourinho a lifeline but I don’t think Allegri should be the ideal replacement if Mourinho is given the sack, I will prefer Zidane replacing Mourinho should he be given the sack eventually.

I feel Italian media is playing mind games with Manchester United first they're constantly saying Jose shall be sacked, then they proclaimed Allergi shall succeed him. If that was not enough now they're spreading fud that Juventus will bid 65 million for Rashford, it's a clear case to unsettle Manchester United, which i feel is below the belt. I'm not sure if Zidane and Allergi are the right candidates, but since there're very few available why not Arsene Wenger?

I loved what Bayern Munich did by calling a press and slamming their witch hunt and filing injunctions against the press, and it's a shame a club like Manchester United does not do it, honestly I'm tired of the press and the ex players and the way they're making personal attacks on Manchester United players.

These are the make and break matches for a coach that has won everything and has nothing left to prove, while I don't like Manchester United under him, but I feel he should depart on a more amicable terms and not the way media wants it.

It looks like Lopetegui is first to lost a job
Real is losing game after game.I have been reading that Perez is after talks with Conte
Bale is next to sell.Problems with his muscles are coming back
Last game he was playing just 45 min
Real has to buy good striker
always injured Bale and Benzema are not enough for Real

This was the same team that said that said that with the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo, they team is going to be bigger and now they are barely scoring even with the World Best Player and they are conceding goals like they have no goalkeeper in the post.

[tokeweed]

Oh now they decide to sell Bale.  Didn't Lopetegui want to sell him and the  sign one MF and a striker, to which Perez denied?

I wonder how Real fans feel about this.

Florentino Perez should just give the managers the freedom to do whatever they want because his intrusion to their work is not good at all. He should be like Ed Woodward and manage the financial aspect of the and let the technical team do their worl.
