⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Theb]

It seems that the 1st call between ACMilan and Raiola as been done.

They are trying to put Ibrahimovic on Milan.

Last time Milan brought back a former player on their team it didn't end well. I'm talking about Kaka returning to Milan which they spent 10 million Euros for and he had underperformed for the team. Yes sure at first the fans (including me) are happy that one of Milan's legends returned home but all through out the season he didn't impressed in any matches. I think this is the same thing I will feel for Ibra since he is also old now and I don't think he could keep up with the Serie A anymore so I wouldn't be happy nor sad if Ibra comes to Milan.

New poll up.

My pick is Manchester United. But watch out for Bayern Munich, they have an interim manager right now.

Poch is like the hottest managerial prospect in Europe right now.

He's not gonna take a new job anytime soon. IMO he'll take 6month/1 year sabbatical and then go back to work (unless there's a tempting offer on the table). He just received 12M from Spurs after the termination of his contract, time to go to the Bahamas and chill 

Gareth Bale going back to Tottenham? At least Harry Redknapp approves this signing^[1]. With Mou and Bale I have no doubts Tottenham will win some silverware in less than a year, quote me (:

I voted in the poll for Poch’s next club. I think it will be Real Madrid in the summer. Man Utd is like a poisoned chalice. Whoever takes on that job next is brave.

As a Manchester United fan,  I am hoping that we sack Solksjaer ASAP or at least give him till the end of the season so that we can replace him with Pochettino so that we can get back to winning ways.  Pochettino turned Tottenham Hotspurs into the high class team that they currently are and his achievements can't be thrown out just because of one bad season. Solksjaer decision to let Lukaku leave without a replacement is what has brought about his demise.

Manchester United do not have good results in recent years, I believe Man United should think of new strategies that produce better results. they could start by hiring Pochettino, I read comment somewhere that said that confidence that Man United board have in Solskjaer will break as soon as they realize they are falling each game

The owner of Milan is full of money but they are under fair play agreement and they can't spend.

According to recent reports last financial year they closed with nearly 150M € of passive.

They have money to spend cause the owner is rich so if they find the way the will can pay him.

New poll up.  Please vote or vote 'other' and post which club itt if you don't think it's either United or Real.  Poch is like the hottest managerial prospect in Europe right now.

I vote Man United.  United can't wait to kick Solksjaer.

I will go with the "Other" Option and that would be Bayern Munich since they recently sacked their manager and have much higher ambitions in European Football than Manchester United right now

At the point Mourinho was sacked, him managing Spurs was not predictable. They reached the final of the champions league and secured a top-four spot although they had a shaky finish to the EPL. In the vein, the club Pochetino manages next would be totally unexpected. Teams like PSG, Barcelona and Bayern could be available at some points this season or during the next summer break. I wouldn't rule out the possibility of Arsenal being his next destination.

It’s very difficult to predict where he’ll end up now, because he has so many clubs to choose from and the most noteworthy clubs are Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. @Upgrade00 his main intention now is to win trophies so he’ll need to join a club that can back him in the transfer windows, and we all know that Arsenal cannot do that so he won’t join them. I feel the clubs bosses will be spoilt for choices as Allegri is also available, and I hope they both manage a premier league team next season.

I don't think that he would be able to manage a top club such as PSG or Barca.
Indeed he did great last season, reaching the final but he didn't get any title with Tottenham, which is what really matters for a manager.

I don't agree with you.
He is great coach and did great things with Tottenham.
But,  he couldn't do beter because owners didn't want to invest in new  players but only in new stadium.
It's miracle how much he without any financial support.
He is one of the best coach in the world right now but he couldn't do more with Tottenham because of luck of financial support and fact that right now we have very strong competition in England,  Liverpool,  Manchester City...

Ibrahimovic has been to so many clubs but one thing i noticed is that he never goes back to where he came from. I doubt if he will also go back to AC Milan. I am more inclined to the idea that he might end up in Asia, particularly China.

I didn't say that he is a bad manager. Indeed he did great.
But the boards and even more the fans are looking for a manager that pushed his previous team to get a title. Given that, fans are interested only in titles. They don't care if their team is going to play good football without winning a championship.

Regarding the poll, I voted for Manchester United as Pochettino's next destinations. In recent weeks, majority of MU fans have been call for Ole's termination of appointment and and think it's coming closer and closer. Man United may have won 2/3 of their laat premier games but a slip up could make the manager position open. I don't think Pochettino would be opting for any other league except premier league.

In other news, Mourinho to Tottenham was a 50/50ove considering Pochettino's contributions. Let's see if he'll live up to the high expectations of fans and critic alike.

I vote Man United.  United can't wait to kick Solksjaer.

Why you constantly ignore Arsenal and Emery?   I think he is more close to being sacked than Ole or Lampard.
Ole is safe if they keep 60% win ratio. nothing big is expected of him in this season. Zidane needs to stay up after el Classico, but we still have Allegri's name on the table.
Bayern Munich seems like the most realistic next Poch destination for me.

Arsenal isn't like Chelsea or lately, United imo.  I think Arsenal is gonna give Emery enough time to adjust.  Prolly two seasons at least.

And comparing Solksjaer, Lampard and Emery, who really sucks?  Yup...  OLE!

Edit:  Interesting pick on Bayern...  Be on the look out for 'Poch learning German' rumors. 

[logfiles]

I voted other. Why do people think that Ole is going to be sucked any time soon 
I believe he will go through the whole season before they can decide what to do with him. Same applies to Zidane and Real Madrid. I think Poch will be Jobless for a while until a major club sacks their Coach. As far as i know, Arsenal's Emery would be the most likely person to be sucked anytime soon.

Because Man Utd are one of the biggest clubs (fan base, annual income, historically, richest etc) in the world & under his management they look like a midtable team.

Rumor of Today.

Pochettino maybe can go to Bayern Monaco.
Dani Olmo can be on Juventus radar.

Neymar saga can start again after the " reproach with Tuchel".

It doesn't really make sense at all, Why would Bayern Munich sack the manager that beat Pochettino by 7-0 and then go on to replace said manager with Pochettino himself,  If Bayern Munich do this then I don't think they thought well of this at all. The ideal place for Pochettino is Manchester United and I do hope that for once Ed Woodward make the right calls.

As said in another thread the perfect choice for Pochettino can be AC Milan.
Ac Milan needs a good coach to restart.
Pochettino needs a good amount of money for his next team, Italy is in his family story, the only question is...
Does he wants a top team or is ok with rebuilding a new one??

ac milan was a top team , not long time ago .

so to rebuild this team won't take really long time for a manager like pochettino who has successfully send tottenham to a champions league final, it is just the matter of fit or not as ac milan recently always appoint a non popular top class manager.
there is no better option now for ac milan to assign a new manager for a new revolution.

i vote for ac milan , juventus and inter milan need more pressure for the title race .

I see Poch sitting on a beach somewhere & enjoying life until the summer when I expect the Real & Man Utd managerial positions will be up for grabs.
