⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

^^ Well yeah it would have been great if he would have accepted it with some little more time with Rangers but well he has now accepted the job and is officially the new manager of Aston Villa. Guess he desparately wanted to get back to England and take over some tier 1 English team.

Let's see how he manages Aston Villa now.

This whole thing boils down to the fact that he wants to manage Liverpool, if he does well at Aston Villa, that could happen when Klopp goes. And having a successful playing career is no guarantee that can happen as a manager as has been proven many times before.  He should just use the new players Dean signed and try out something new. He should be able to figure out what went wrong in the team that stopped them from performing. He have got a leader in Tyrone Mings, Danny Ings and Emiliano Martinez. He is a new manager despite his time at Rangers. Aston Villa owners should him time, don't get on his back because he doesn't beat everyone before Christmas. He'll be great, but he needs time.

It was the correct time for him to move; he gained the required experience at Rangers to establish himself in the league, and starting with Aston Villa with less pressure will give him more confidence rather than rushing to bigger clubs with higher expectations. Given the caliber of players at Aston Villa, I anticipate him to do well.

Edit:  Oh and btw..  Frank Lampard is the favorite to be the next Norwich manager.  Lololol.  

It's funny how the media painted Lampard as a horrible coach, ignoring the reality that he led Derby County to the playoff final, booked Chelsea a place in the Champions League, and went undefeated in the group stage, demonstrating his abilities. Norwich will benefit more from his experience

Former Rangers manager Steven Gerrard will be the new manager of Aston Villa. We're glad he's back on the touchline in a much bigger league. It worries me that he will be sacked if he doesn't produce immediate results. However, he was comfortable at his previous club. New challenges are always necessary.

Having new challenges is always fun. Nevertheless, it's a gradual process and not a climb up the ladder. I can't wait to return to Anfield as Villa manager!

According to L'Equipe, Paul Pogba is leaning towards signing a new deal with Manchester United and extending his contract. But it is claimed that he wants a salary that is worth more than Ronaldo's.

He doesn't leave Man United? Lol.
I suspect he stated to leave Man United in order to get a bigger salary. I think Pogba doesn't need to ask for a bigger salary than Ronaldo has. It is very reasonable if Ronaldo has a bigger salary because of his capacity. Paul Pogba is better to show to the team his best performance in this season firstly, before asking for a bigger salary. I think it is not the right time to ask for a bigger salary.

I think Pogba is not serious in asking for higher salary, maybe it is just a trick so he can go out from United if United is unable to fulfill what he is asking for.
As what I can see, he is not really enjoying his career in Manchester since last year unlike when he was in Juventus where his position cant be replaced by other player.
Maybe next transfer window is the right time for him to leave and find new challenge in other league.
 

[ShowOff]

Aston Villa signed steven gerrard on a three and a half year contract until June 2025 and of course it will be an amazing experience for us to see the liverpool legend again in the premier league, so far he continues to be rumored to be the newcastle coach but in the end aston villa who managed to bring him back to the premier league, steve gerrard's journey with the ranger is certainly very extraordinary in my opinion because they were able to destroy the domination of celtic so far in the scottish league, but even so the english league is not an easy league and of course it will require hard work and a lot of time for steven gerrard to improve the performance of aston villa today.

I'm surprised by Gerrard's appointment as Aston Villa coach as I haven't heard many rumors about him in the last month "probably because I'm not an Aston Villa fan". His experience in the Premier League as a player in the past will probably help him a lot to improve the performance of Aston Villa because I believe he knows a lot about the character of the team that will be faced in the Premier League.

According to Marca, Barcelona are in pursuit of Manchester United winger Raheem Sterling, their striker Cavani and Chelsea striker Timo Werner. These are all very good targets for Barcelona. I already know of their interest in Sterling but Cavani and Werner targets are new to me. But I also remember that Barcelona have been in a financial trouble for a long time. And I suppose they are still not in a very good financial condition. So, I wonder how they will make all of these transfers in January.

How would Barcelona pay for any of these players? They already extended Fati's and Pedri's contracts and we're talking about players that wouldn't be cheap. They could not get Wijnaldum on a free transfer 2 months ago, now we're talking about buying Sterling and bringing Messi back?

For Barcelona it would be better to keep a low profile and quickly kill off stories like these. Xavi will have a tough job by itself, with these kind of stories it will be an impossible one.

They cant without taking more loans the finances of Barcelona are probably the worst in the world. I do not expect them to sign anyone high profile for a long time. I think this season and next season they are going to lose a lot of players in the transfer windows. They cannot afford the players that currently play for them. Barcelona are not going to recover financially for a long time I think it will be 10+ years.

from the start when he refused a contract extension it was the reason like this and it seemed that he was serious about what he said.
it is not wrong to ask the club for a high salary but this must be accompanied by an impressive performance.
and when i see now with pogba's performance which tends to be monotonous i think he wants to try to be sterling in the city

Sterling has long been linked with Barcelona but so far that interest is just rumours. However, the existence of Xavi as a coach opened up opportunities to get the winger's signature. Guardiola reportedly agrees with Barcelona's interest in Sterling as he may not be included in the team's priorities this season at Manchester City. If Sterling can join Barcelona then it will be great considering he is a player who has the ability to be considered filling the Barcelona lineup.

I can feel Mino Raiola's handwriting I would be very surprised that such an agent would require the least salary for his ward, and even deprived himself in terms of finances Another question is whether the management of Manchester United agrees to such conditions. The series with the extension of Pogba continues and every week there are new rumors, because just a week ago it was said that Pogba could not agree with his current club and wanted to return to Juventus and sign a three-year contract, even with a salary reduction. I think it's all agency games and stuffing information into the press in order to put pressure on the management of the club.

Ronaldo, for sure, Pogba, nah. Don't get me wrong, I was in awe at him while he was at Juventus, but he's been slowly regressing at United, doesn't deserve a new contract (and if he did they'll keep playing him out of position and in a shitty formation).

As a neutral who wants to see him back at his best, I'd love for him to return to the Old Lady.

^^ I think instead of buying expensive players Barcelona should save money right now because they don't have enough money. If I remember correctly a few days ago Barcelona was afraid of setting their own manager because they have to give him the contracted money and now they are talking about buying quality players and expensive players. I think ok I should fix the money problem first before buying any players.

This is one of the most shocking news for me to date. I did hear that Gerrard was interested in Aston Villa but didn't think that this rumor was really happening and Gerrard accepted this.
this will certainly be a hot spotlight for a while considering gerrard is considered a liverpool legend and of course the fans from liverpool will be very angry about this.
I'm actually not too focused on Astonvilla but for now I will follow its development because it will be very exciting I think.

I think there is no chance he will stay with Red Devils.

this is a policy that must be taken.
rather than they continue to add players by pouring out a lot of funds, it would be wiser for them to hold on and save their current finances because their crisis is very severe and on the verge of bankruptcy.
it would be very unwise to force them to add players hoping to make them feel like they were in the past when their players and their performances were good.
Barcelona today is not Barcelona a few years ago, they have to be careful with that.

Fans are understandable, of course. But I don't understand why they should be angry if they understand that they have a great coach - Jurgen Klopp at the head of the team. Gerrard let him better Aston Villa now to raise a little and set the pace of the game, and then you can go to Liverpool. And in the end, it's everyone's choice.)

[logfiles]

It is for sure nice for them to have some money but in reality, he will leave for free in 6 months, and now he is injured for at least 2 months according to rumors...

The best option would be to try to sell him in Jan if he refused to extend the contract with them. But if all doesn't work, then they would have no choice but let him go for free in Summer. An early agreement with another club can be reached for his departure later in the summer, but I have never seen a player leave a club so early even for free before his contract expires  

Pogba's situation also hinges on how long Ole stays at United. As things look right now. It seems Ole doesn't have Pogba in his plans and the injury has worsened the situation. I don't think Pogba would imagine being benched for the rest of the season after he has recovered. If Ole got sacked somewhere before Jan, maybe it would affect Pogba's decision to extend his contract.

oh year i remember you posted something about this Paul Manchester dilemma some couple of weeks over Pogba not extending his contract but whats currently in public domain is contradicting to what we are expecting from their contract negotiations. And with several teams expressing interest in this lad, I wouldn't be surprised if he finds himself playing for Newcastle because its money he wants, and Newcastle might give it to him

[Avirunes]

I don't think it is a matter of getting frustrated upon. Yeah he is Liverpool legend but right now they are performing far more better than Aston Villa so don't think anyone is getting angry about it, even if some of them do, they will get over it after sometime.

Still another great manager getting into PL tightens up the competition even more.

For him to actually leave, there must be someone willing to pay that huge contract he will be demanding. He has started this season really great but overall his United performances have been below par and the clubs that are interested will track how he'll play in the following months.

Pogba on a free transfer looks like a great deal but it is not that simple - he'll still cost a fortune. Extending with United might be the best option he will receive - so it would not surprise me at all if he stayed there.
