Remember Lukas Podolski...?



According to the current news, the former German national team player has now decided to join a Polish club which is indeed his homeland, according to existing information Gornik Zabre got Lukas Podolski on a free transfer, Gornik Zabre was very lucky to get Lukas  Podolski who did have a lot of experience, even though now Lukas Podolski is not young anymore but he is a pretty dangerous striker in front of goal in my opinion.

Could it be that after the Euros there will be a record-breaking transfer fee held by Neymar? If you remember the value of Neymar's transfer from Barca to PSG was €222.00m. Ronaldo is not in the top 5.

The following table transfer fees for all seasons that have been running.

Now PSG become most expensive team because many great player success go there with higher value, but is nothing if PSG never success get UEFA champion league trophy after last two year only success become runner up defeat by Bayern Munich. I think they need to give great mentality how ever money is not more to get trophy, look what happen with Manchester City although success get many player they failed to be champion league winner.

Arsenal Legend Patrick Vieira has become Crystal Palace’s new manager.  Lol.  He was once upon a time thought to be groomed to be the next Man City manager after Guardiola by the football journos which I found hilarious.

He did manage the academy and the b squad then moved the MLS to manage Man City’s sister squad NY Red Bulls.  But I don’t think that’s enough judging from what City wants to achieve in Europe.

You have to have a good coach to win the trophy. At the same time there must be coordination among the players of the team and they must be very strong mentally. PSG costs a lot of money. But there is very little coordination among their players. Despite having such a good squad in the previous season, they could not win the Ligue 1 title. Ramos has been added to their squad this season. PSG has become more powerful. But the bonding between the players is not good so they can win the title.

Mario Balotteli changes the club again and goes to turkey to this year's süper-lig promoted adana demirspor
another chapter/country of MB, which will surely be finished next year again... this will now be his 10th club in his football career

and with his move to psg, Achraf Hakimi is now the first african player to have a transfer fee over 100 million euros

Achraf Hakimi needed exactly 370 days to generate over €100 million in transfer fees. His transfer from Inter Milan to Paris Saint-Germain not only makes him the most expensive transfer of 2021, but also the first African footballer ever to switch clubs for fees of over €100 million. In international comparison, he is the 37th footballer to break the €100 million mark.

Barcelona have been very busy in this summer transfer but they're still looking for a solution to keep Argentine Lionel Messi among its ranks, in light of the League's refusal to exempt the club from the Financial Fair Play Law for exceeding the permissible salary limit, in the event of the renewal of Messi contract. But when you look on overall until now Barcelona have been the best club that has moved in the market. It made good contracts in centers that needed reinforcements and got rid of some players and others are for sale, but did Barcelona do the best in terms of those contracts, of course not, and this thing can be understood by all Simplicity through the club's financial situation and the resounding losses this pandemic has left, so the priority now is to sell and get rid of high-paid players, after that for every recent incident and now they are maybe going to be forced to sell Greizman if they are going to renew for Messi.

^  What a waste.  That guy was a great young prospect back in the day.  Mancini saw something in him and Mancini was even acting like some sort of father figure but he was just too stubborn to appreciate all the support being given.  If he only had listened, he could be one of the greats to have ever played the sport.

His goals against Germany in the European Championship semifinals were crazy. He was really an incredible soccer player, but his character completely destroyed his career. Others get destroyed by their health, knee, ankle or whatever. That guy just got busted by his own attitude and character. Unbelievable... He should have had a psychiatrist (maybe he had...).

[cryptofrka]

Ramos has passed his medical and is finally a PSG player. Donnarumma expected to sign after the Euros.

If PSG keeps Mbappe (so far they are not any closer to extending his current deal), they will be one of the main contenders for the CL.

Regarding Balotelli, I really don't believe there is 1 sane person in the world willing to give him a 3-year contract
Loved him as a player though, in his early days of course.

Lets get to see how he gets the Crystal Palace job Done.
I want to see more of the attacking players and side from them.
Total rebuild of tje squad going on at the moment.

It was not even just Mancini,,, if I recall correctly Brendan Rodgers at Liverpool even tried to take him. It was weird to see naughty boys end up at Liverpool at one point like Luis Suarez as well,,, but I guess it did not work for him even if it worked for Suarez.

And now he has another second chance, after many second chances. I still feel he was a good guy deep inside, let us hope for a late revival?

The football of people right? Oil prices are good, everything is good
Well PSG is knocking all doors (trying all the ways) in order to get Champions League and to claim back Ligue 1 titles. So yeah, since money isn't a problem they will do whatever they could to create "ALL STARS" team.

Honestly, I'm not sure if Viera will do a good job and it's a shame that Crystal Palace have to make Viera their coach for next season, even though Viera spent her career in the English Premier League but I don't think Viera has enough experience to coach a team in the English Premier League, as far as I know, Viera was sacked from Nice last December because it wasn't able to lift Nice performance in League 1 last season, and that's the reason why I'm not sure if Viera will be able to lift Crystal Palace performance next season.

Mancini was too patient with him in Manchester City and Italy but Balotelli wastes all his opportunities. When Mancini took over the coach position for Italy, he called Balotelli a few times but Super Mario did not answer Mancini well and show bad attitude.

Mario reminds me about Pogba who has amazing skills too. Pogba has never shown up his best because his arrogance. The match with Switzerland is one of moment like that.

His goals against Germany in the European Championship semifinals were crazy. He was really an incredible soccer player, but his character completely destroyed his career. Others get destroyed by their health, knee, ankle or whatever. That guy just got busted by his own attitude and character. Unbelievable... He should have had a psychiatrist (maybe he had...).

Absolutely good striker but he is unprofessional and he does not concentrate on his career. Mario is even worse than Cassano who changed a lot in late of career and achieved titles with AC Milan and has better personal record.

So far, i remember, AC Milan is considered quite successful in changing Balotelli's attitude, while with Milan, Balotelli rarely causes problems, although there are some, but not as often as at other clubs. Luckily, there are still clubs that are interested in Balotelli, even Demirspor is also lucky because it is rumored that all of Balotelli's salary will be paid by the Sponsor. Maybe this will be good for him, if he can maintain his attitude and can bring his club to stay in the league next season.

[Nadziratel]

Once upon a time, there was a talented young player. He had a great history with Italy national team. Balotelli is about to sign with Adana Demirspor, who was promoted to the Turkish Super League this year after doing everything he could to ruin his career. Apart from Balotelli, Demirspor also added former Marseille and Galatasaray football player Y. Belhanda to its squad.

When asked about Demirspor club official Balotelli's undisciplined actions, he gave surprising answers. “We are crazy people too, we know how to handle Balotelli,” he said.

Wow is this guy even still playing? Talented young player,,, and does anybody still remember his famous celebration at EUROs? Until today it is often spoken about as top 5 memories from EURO. Such a pity that his talent became overclouded by all his actions and antics off the field. But who knows,,, a crazy guy needs a crazy club;)

He officaly signed contract with Adana Demirspor today.
And I think, Adana Demirspor will have a crazy season this year 

[jaberwock]

From what I get La Liga is basically saying keep the salary cap at 200 million euro at the max. Which means if Messi gets 50 million euro which quite frankly he doesn't deserve today because he got old, he is still entitled to ask whatever he wants, and Barcelona will give it to him just for his historic contribution. However that leaves Barcelona with a total of 150 million euro in salary that they can give, plus they will need to sell a lot of their players as well if they want to drop the salary total.

The latest talks have been around the names of Umtiti, Pjanic, Coutinho, Alena, Neto, Wague, Lenglet, Sergi Roberto, and there are even talks about selling Dembele, and even maybe Griezmann. If they can get rid of some of these players and get a good money, they could both save on the salary cap, and also get their financials back in place after so many years of being in financial trouble. Of course it will be at the cost of success most probably.
