⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ludmilla_rose1995]

The football played by De Zerbi is definitely good football. The offensive direction draws the image of a team trying to play more effectively. Shakhtar did the same. He will now do so in Brighton. His first match will be against Liverpool. He will give his first test in a difficult match. I hope he manages to prove himself.

There is no other choice but to adapt quickly because time is always moving and De Zerbi must be able to understand all the players at Brighton to find out the right position and formation to face Liverpool at the beginning of the month, we all know that Liverpool are one of the teams that are quite strong and hard to beat so De Zerbi must think hard to give his best contribution at Brighton.

when de zerbi was still coach of sassuolo, the team actually didn't look that impressive, but don't know if de zerbi's strategic abilities will have improved. brighton was left by potter with a not so bad performance, hopefully in the hands of zerbi, brighton's achievements improve greatly.

First of all Maguire is a horrible player and should not be played, there isn't a situation where he is the best defender they have, he could be removed and they would have a great team, Varane and that other defender I forgot his name the short one, those two would be good enough, if you put them and then Ronaldo it should work. They have casemiro to play at midfield as well, so that team should be fine enough.

Thankfully Erik ten Hag doesn't prefer Maguire in the starting eleven of important games anymore. He started to choose him in only Europa League games lately. He isn't a reliable defender for any big team at the moment. I think that he might be sold after the end of the season also if they find a better replacement for him. He shouldn't be even the last resort for Manchester United I mean.  

If Ronaldo also leaves the team at the end of the season then Manchester United should go for a good striker transfer. They can't continue with only Rashford. Antony has been brought here but he isn't a striker. Some people think that he is here to replace Ronaldo so that's why I wanted to say that. However Ronaldo might decide to stay if Manchester United make it to the Champions League this time.

Manchester united fans would be delighted to see Erik Ten Hag finally solving the problem of having Harry Maguire starting every game for Manchester United knowing fully well how bad his performances have been since last season. A number of times the fans have called for the benching of Harry Maguire but their plea have not been attended it will please the fans to finally get their plee attended to. The teams is playing well now since Maguire started sitting on the bench. I don't think Ronaldo will be staying after this season in Manchester United, it is time United start searching for a suitable replacement.

Bayern Munich's need of a striker is getting bigger by every week. Some people believed that they would still do a good job with Mane there but they couldn't do this so far obviously. Because Mane isn't mainly a striker in the end. Rather than playing like that, we need to see him on the wing more. He should be allowed to play similar to his role at Liverpool. They need to solve the striker problem until the end of the winter transfer window. If they don't bring anyone in the middle of the season then the remaining time period also would be very tough for them.

I know that it is really hard to find and convince a striker who can contribute as much as Lewandowski in the middle of the season. But if they want to be successful this season the only way seems like dealing with this quickly.

The coach of Bayern Munich knows his tactics and yet he acted as if he was not concerned to have a perfect replacement of Lewandowski. Mane is a good player but not a replacement of Lewandowski. The same problem is happening with Liverpool, Nunez is a good player but a perfect replacement of Mane.
Bayern Munich team is still strong and deadly and may never need a natural striker if their coach was Guardiola. Those men at the front are the perfect men to use when playing false 9.

Because Mane isn't mainly a striker in the end. Rather than playing like that, we need to see him on the wing more.

Agree. Bayern Munich can't rely on Mane for CF position, his main position is as a winger and he seems more comfortable playing as a winger. He isn't the same as Ronaldo that can be easily changed the position from a winger to a CF, Mane has no the same capability as Ronaldo. In Ronaldo's case, he has a good physical to be a CF and a high accuracy in shooting, not only has a fast speed in dribbling. It is rather different with Mane, he seems to be more skilled in dribbling. So, Bayern should consider to find a new CF in the next transfer window.

I'm surprised to hear Bayern are seriously in need of a striker, when Lewandowski was leaving the club, Sadio Mane was signed to be his replacement. I thought Mane was meant to fill in the top striker position but it now seems the coach prefers playing Sadio Mane in his actual position that is playing from the left wing. The window is already closed now, Bayern will have to wait until January to go for a new striker and will have to make use of available players until then.

it has been a joke to watch Manchester United handle things the way they have
just a few days ago, they made some changes to the coaching staff, there is no doubt that the coaches that they have changed did not do a good job at all
furthermore, the coaches that they brought in later actually managed to do worse than the coaches they brought in earlier

there is no chemistry between the players, and honestly, it seems like the players do not even want to be a part of Manchester United, the team did not even finish in the top 4 of the standings last season and i am not going to be surprised if they do not even finish in the top 6 of the standings this coming season

Yes, I very much agree with this, what I have also seen that many teams have closed the doors to CR7, I think this is something that does not add up very well, I know that the players partly affect the whole team and CR7 without doubt always gives a lot to talk about, from what I see he will stay in Manchester next to Casemiro, at least I see that he has a friend there that when they were at Real Madrid, but Manchester is already a team of a very high level and it is necessary for them to be able to get out of that crisis, if the team in general is in a bad way from the directors they will not give good results, I think that the best thing here is that they change the coach, because as I see things they will not obtain good results.

Manchester United is not handling anything well, and the authorities of Manchester united are a joke, they got Ronaldo on the team but they didn't do anything to help him

whatever they did, didn’t work out for them and Ronaldo always found himself alone in whatever he did, last season Ronaldo actually carried the team alone
but still, all the blame went to Ronaldo, and now the authorities are not even considering him as a starting 11 player
and this starting 11 situation is the same with Casimiro as well, i feel like they might actually end up destroying his career as well

It's a shame, because he is a player who has always been forged under his own efforts, if he were I would leave, I wouldn't care if I went to the UCL or not, what I would concentrate on is trying to win the cup no matter what. of the world of Qatar, because only that is what he needs, he would even have that honor and take it away from Messi, I am sure that if something like this were to happen, he can afford to say to the media that those teams that rejected them, they can realize that they rejected a world champion and I think that if he would hit all those clubs in the Ego and with that alone he would bury all the clubs and all the technical directors that rejected him, in part I would like that that could come true.

In Ronaldo's case, he has a good physical to be a CF and a high accuracy in shooting, not only has a fast speed in dribbling. It is rather different with Mane, he seems to be more skilled in dribbling. So, Bayern should consider to find a new CF in the next transfer window.

Well it's a fact, Bayern does need a new attacking partner, for me this has many variants, if Bayern had hired CR7 things would look different, because despite everything CR7 is an athlete, CR7 has no problem with help in the defense or cover any position besides that he can resume a game at any time, apart from that he would have been a good friend of Muller, they still have time to acquire him, Mane is very good, but if they can help with someone who is like CR7 I think that Bayern would assure there if a UCL, it would not be bad, but what the managers think is something else, and everyone has to stick to that.

I'm surprised to hear Bayern are seriously in need of a striker, when Lewandowski was leaving the club, Sadio Mane was signed to be his replacement.

You are right, but everything is possible, and do not create a hole like the one Lewa left, it is not easy to cover and that has been shown in some of Bayern's games, it has not been realized that there are some games that Bayern have lost very strangely? that they have beaten Barcelona but suddenly they fall with another team? well that gap is the one left by Lewa, and that's why they said that the best option was CR7, but the best option was him, of course this is something that not everyone sees with the same eyes, everyone wants to see a defeated CR7, what What I am saying is, if Portugal becomes world champion, I think that CR7 can silence many mouths.

Why do I feel your assumptions are related to the current situation at PSG, do we think the same?
Yes, you expect Cristiano to help Mane to complete his task up front as we see at PSG, Messi is task with help Mbappe score a goal record in every attack. You also think Cristiano will become Muller's best friend like Messi with Neymar.
It will be interesting if it comes true, because we will see the PSG trio rivalry with the Bayern trio for the UCL title.

Seeing how Bayern Munich have been performing in few games now, I think the manager should blame himself for his tactics. Mane isn’t a striker but he can play in that position. He’s played there so many times for Liverpool and had recorded numbers of goals and assists. I don’t see why Nagelsmann hasn’t developed a system to maximize Mane’s abilities. Mane looks at his devastating best out wide and does not look happy in the centre-forward role.

When Bayern Munich decided to add a new striker maybe they thought they still lacked to get players with an attacking model and have above average skills, I think when the market reopens in January it will make Bayern Munich move quickly to find and buy the best strikers so they don't miss out on good players again. The plan in the last market they wanted to get Erling Haaland but failed and proved the target of Bayern Munich now can score a lot of goals at other clubs, so Bayern Munich don't want to miss that opportunity again to get the best striker.

As a result of the rumor, the Red Devils are preparing a £25 million offer for Benfica's Goncalo Ramos. There isn't really an effective striker for United at the moment. It would be interesting to see how United handled Ronaldo's replacement even though I am not confident enough that the Benfica striker could replace him. Anyway, It will be one of Man United's greatest signings, a great improvement. So far, no contact has been made about this rumor in negotiations.

This club is buying any player from another club. I think that manchester united can get a better option. It seems like that MU was seeing so many good results achieved by benfica as a reason to buy him. Whatever the decision that will be made by MU but the transfer season already closed. He may join with MU in the future. 25 millions are good price for him.

Manchester United preparations I'm confident for the winter transfer market. it will open in January next year. It has been reported that Manchester United is one of the clubs that will be very aggressive in the transfer market next year.
they're doing pretty well this season too. by purchasing players with a large enough value. I think this is all a response to MU's performance which was not good at the beginning of the season.

[RealMalatesta]

after bayern munich and newcastle united, manchester united is now reportedly interested in benfica striker Gonçalo Ramos - who could then move to the club in january

looks like United wants to sharpen their front line. are they still not satisfied with Rashford's performance?

This rumor has not yet been continued in negotiations. but United did say they were ready to buy the Benfica striker. even the media coverage was so exciting because there was hope that the Benfica striker would become Ronaldo's replacement.
I'm sure, if United were serious, it would cost a lot of money.

It's a bit about Ronaldo situation. Which means that if they get Gonçalo then they are for sure giving up on Ronaldo to continue playing in United, was a good season but ended with terrible results with historical low points and no need to reroll the same team. Rashford is good and nice but he is not enough, so they might be trying something new.

Doesn't mean they will get someone though, this is just a rumor and many teams wants to buy players but then disagree on price and give up, so maybe they won't, I am just saying if they got another striker and play him together with Rashford then it would work, they could be each others replacement whenever one of them is tired.

Some teams in the English league are indeed currently approaching several players to strengthen their team, even Manchester City, which looks quite perfect, is still eyeing some players for them to buy in the winter transfer market, I think it's only natural that Manchester United are still eyeing new players because their squad is not quite capable at the moment and they still have the opportunity to improve their team in the middle of the season in January, signing Goncalo Ramos could be a pretty good option for the Manchester attack line which is reportedly ready to lose Ronaldo this winter .

Like it or not, Nagel has to fix the performance of Bayern Munich, which in the last four matches in the Bundesliga has decreased in performance. Mane who initially appeared impressive, now he has problems to create goals.
I think Nagels is aware of the obstacles he is facing to maintain the existence of his squad's performance. maybe in the next transfer window, he will target several players to fill the vacancy previously occupied by Lewandowski.

Mane is a brilliant and talented player, but it looks like he is having some difficulties as a substitute for Lewandowski. however, for now. Nagelsmann must maximize his tactics and strategies to face the next matches.

Gonçalo Ramos is an attacking player who has very good skills and of course, at the age of 21, he is a must-have for Manchester United, so that they can replace attackers who cannot work as a team well. and no maximum contribution to Manchester United anymore.

Even this all is right, but Bayern Munich is not going to invest in Cristiano Ronaldo as this is not good investment for them, and they will prefer any young player which able to give them results for long time most chances Cristiano Ronaldo will be also not available for them in coming season as well or in winter transfer window because now things are improving in Manchester United as well, and they are improving performance which is good signal for them.
 
Even right now Bayern Munich is looking for attacking striker but surely their preference could be different from your all statement, and they are not luxurious club like PSG which invested big amount on stars and having results their history is completely different, and they can do much better with young players which is easy and good for them.

You analysed it very well mate. The chances that Ronaldo will go to Bayern is very small and if he eventually goes, it will not be a good business for Bayern because of the age of Ronaldo. Bayern Munich doesn't need anyone to give them one season backup. They need a longer term striker which will be a younger player than Ronaldo.
The problem is that i don't see any good young striker available in the market. Strikers are scarce these days in football.

Ronaldo may not want to leave Manchester united in January open window because the club would be better by then.

After losing Robert Lewandowski surely they were late and fail to have their desired player in team which is surely hurting them in current situation their targeted both players have committed and now most chances instead of this Winter transfer window they will be able to have their targeted player Harry Kane in next summer window because after current performance in Bundesliga surely they are missing one attacking striker which is important for them.

Sadio Mane is surely a quality replacement, but he is not like which settle in Bayern Munich current setup so most chances we will have changes in coming season because they are must if they want to keep their hold in German League which is currently struggling badly with their abilities which are not giving their best.

[Cryptmuster]

How can see his achievements if in the last 5 seasons he has managed 4 clubs including Sassuolo Calcio. It will be difficult to see his quality and achievements because on average Roberto De Zerbi only last 1 to 2 seasons at each club.
To improve the quality of the team it takes more time than that, even a coach like Mikel Arteta who previously was an assistant at Manchester City need time 3 seasons to bring the arsenal to what it is today.
Brighton could become the rulers of the EPL if the club sponsors De Zerbi with unlimited funds to bring in high quality players like Barcelona did, but I'm not sure Brighton will do that.

Good point, de Zerby changes clubs very often and this is not the best indicator for good results. I'm skeptical about de Zerby in the Premier League, it's a tough league he hasn't played yet, it's not clear how his strategies will work in Brighton. Brighton won't spend a lot of money on players, they don't have a big budget and with that in mind their current results can be considered excellent.
