⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Which job that has been doing well by xavi? i didn't even see that. Barcelona got nothing last year and it seems like barcelona will be repeating the worst result again this year. Xavi may become the worst coach for barcelona all time. The good performance from barcelona in la liga doesn't give guarantee if barcelona will be winning against another team like real madrid to get the title. The consistently needs to be proven to make sure if barcelona can get the title for this year.
Im not even hoping barcelona to win europa league caused by there are so many big clubs played on europa league. Some of them are even on fire like arsenal.

The achievements given by Xavi do not look much but in fact Xavi has tried his best to create a good game, but in reality Barcelona is not good, there is no other choice but to give another chance to Xavi because it is not easy to replace Xavi as coach from Barcelona.

Looking at Messi's current age I don't think there is a possibility of Guardiola signing Messi anymore. Messi has has grown old and in my opinion will not be able to cope with the aggressive nature of English football if he moves to Manchester City. I think Messi will finish his contract at PSG and move to a smaller division or club until retirement.  I think we are gradually passing that Messi and Ronaldo era and moving on to the future.

You are right. Messi is 35 years years old, he is getting old. Although this season he can perform well, we don't know what happens to him in the next season. At the current age, it is very prone to injury, I am sure Guardiola doesn't want to take this risk. Since there are many other players as options, I am sure he will choose a younger player. In addition, Man City seems already have a good squad, they have a strong striker and strong wingers. There is no need for a new striker or a winger like Lionel Messi.

Even though he is 35 years old, Lionel Messi has proven to still have magical powers on the gridiron, in the match against Maccabi Haifa in the Champions League Lionel Messi was able to score two goals and was able to provide two assists, if I personally think Lionel Messi will most likely return to Barcelona because if grazing to Manchester city is very unlikely, because Manchester city already has Erling Halland, another reason is because the English league is a league that can be said to be a tough league, not only skills are needed but physical is the priority,

This is one of the fake news made to set the agenda. It is very wrong to make this news while Arsenal are playing good football. Arteta is focused on football.

I don't see any reason Arteta will want to leave a team that he has built so far to go start shaping up another team. Whatever glory he has in mind, there is a good chance he can achieve if with this pace he is on with Arsenal, with some little additions to our team in the January transfer window to strengthen the team, he can have a dream team. Arteta is happy at arsenal, both the players and fans respect and love him for the hope he has given that Arsenal can be Arsenal again.

On the other hand Barcelona and not really playing bad in both leagues they just performed poorly in the champions League. Xavi will still be given time, the management of Barcelona respects him.

Barcelona have been impressed by Arsenal's style of play and discipline under Arteta, and see him as a potential future manager at the Nou Camp. On the other hand I think that there is total confidence in Xavi and I feel there is an intention of making any changes. Barça are performing well in their domestic league even though they missed out on the UCL, but I don’t think  Barcelona intend to sack Xavi anytime soon.

I don't know how this coaches transfers are done and how much they earn. If I may ask, what will be the gain of Arteta if he leaves the Arsenal thag he has organised, arsenal that has the potentials of winning the Epl Tittle and Europa league to Barcelona.
How much does Arsenal pay Arteta and how much will Barcelona pay him. Will Barcelona be able to pay Arteta x2 of what Arsenal pays him?
I am just trying to understand why a coach will leave where he is doing well to jump into where there is much problems to be fixed. Where can possibly cost his career. I consider it to be a rumor and to remain a rumour.

I think the way coaches transfers are done is a lot similar with player transfers, only that when a club wants a certain coach they offer a bigger wage and transfer amount to the club. I consider this as a rumour as Arteta will not want to leave Arsenal at the time especially with the current progress of the team this season. Arteta has done a good job developing and rebuilding the Arsenal squad and he is gradually making huge success in the project so leaving and abandoning the project now will be insane and considering the passion and love he has for the club I think he will remain at the club and continue to build and strive towards the success of the club. I believe with some little additions probably in the next transfer windows the team will grow to become even more successful and stronger. I would love to see him remain at the club and enjoy the success of his hard work.

It is better to recruit young players and create a generation for the future, Erling Haaland is an example that with young players can give their best performance and he will last a very long time compared to players who will soon end his career as a player. I think Pep Guardiola is aware of that because he is a coach who has a vision for the future not just last one or two seasons.

So Gerard Pique announced officially that he will retire this weekend after Barcelona - Almeria match at the age of 35. I might not understand it well what he meant by the last game in Camp Nou since Barcelona will have another game Tuesday tho away but whatever the exact date, he decided to take a break as a professional player.

It has been announced that Pique will retire from football, which means his career as a FC Barcelona player has come to an end. This Saturday at the Camp Nou, he will play his last game for the club against Almeria. As one of the greatest defenders of his generation, he will forever be remembered as a legend. During his best days, he played his part and will forever be remembered. Best wishes for your retirement, Pique.

I wish Pique a good retirement from active football so that he could take care of his family and be close to his loved ones. There is no doubt that the old man has given his best to football and to Barcelona in particular at his prime he was one of the best defenders in the world.
Even at his old age he still had the courage to return to Barcelona in order to build the team.
I understand that his assignment is completed, he needs to take a bow, happy retirement PK

Arteta almost managed to form the Arsenal squad as coveted so far, Arsenal squad is almost perfect this season. Performances are also very consistent in the domestic league and Europa League, it is very unlikely that Arteta will leave the Arsenal he has built so hard, he will continue to stay at the Emirates stadium until his mission with Arsenal is achieved.

Arteta will be fully focused on Arsenal instead of moving to Barcelona, there is still a lot of work to be done with Arteta at Arsenal, he is enjoying a good time and looks happy with Arsenal because he has full support from the club for his request to bring in new players. Arteta is no stranger to Barcelona, he is one of La Masia graduates, maybe for this reason Barcelona are eager to continue working with Arteta for the second time after Xavi is considered to have failed to take Barcelona further in the Champions League.

As we sanctioned Barcelona always wanted to take advantage of free transfers and last season they did that to bring in wanted players including Messi. Moreover, Arsenal is now enjoying the hard work that has been built by Arteta. No wonder Arsenal officials will always fulfill Arteta wishes for his club. For whatever reason, I'm sure Arteta will stay at the club he loves for a long time.

It's time for Gerard Pique to hang up his boots and he is a player who has contributed greatly to Barcelona. In the midst of uncertainty Xavi increasingly can not control how Barcelona going forward. It's been a tough time for Barcelona to go through in the last few seasons, apart from Xavi failure, finances that have not fully recovered, and almost all of their assets have been sold, but the results have not been able to provide satisfaction for the club on the pitch.

One thing I love about Barcelona players is the love they have for the club, the premier league clubs has subconsciously trained their players to be after the money and stats while La Liga side plays for the love of the game. Reports has it that Gerard Piqué has reportedly given up around €30M that Barcelona owed him! Which player can do such in the premier league? Gerard pique did have a wonderful career at Barcelona and internationally that many players will die for, during his time playing, he won 36 trophies in 615 appearances.

Gerard Piqué's titles at Barça:
8️⃣ La Liga
7️⃣ Copa del Rey
3️⃣ Champions League

Pique for sure is one of the greats, both for Barcelona and for his national team.
Unfortunately, his performances dropped by a lot and he's been on the bench a lot this season - so this decision makes sense.

He could still play but he's leaving at the right time if you ask me. Busquets would be smart to think about it as well.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte was reportedly impressed by Kanté's performance and agreed to sign him on a free transfer this summer. Injured Kante is no longer available so why is Conte queuing up for him? As Kanté is prone to injury, perhaps he is the solution to Spurs' trophy quest! 

kante has been a very dedicated footballer, he is so dedicated that he gives his best at every match. He is a master in stopping ball from going into his half. He is humble and Loved by every every of his team members. But the reality is that he played his best in his Liecester and Chelsea days. now that he is being caught up by age and injury his productivity will reduce.
He will not be a good business for Conte and Tottenham

It's true that Kante is a talented player. The only thing wrong with him, it seems, is that he has a high chance of getting injured. In my opinion, if they can get him for free, then it is not looking to be a bad deal for the team. This is due to the fact that he is someone who is capable of performing really well for his team. Hence, I believe that if he is not overplayed, and if he is managed correctly, he can be a very valuable asset for the team. In my opinion, at this point you can't play him for the entire 90 minutes because he will get injured during that time.

This news has become a hot topic among football lovers.
considering he still has a contract with Barcelona until it ends in 2024. I really appreciate, with what he said in his social media.  Pique made this shocking announcement through an emotional video that he uploaded on his personal social media account on Friday.

so, we will watch his last match in Barcelona when he host Almeria at Camp Nou later. I think it's the right decision, considering that he is no longer a core player in the Barcelona squad so that his performance is getting worse at an age that is no longer young. apart from the polemics that have occurred lately that have linked him with Barcelona, ​​at least he deserves full appreciation for his loyalty to Barcelona.

Happy retirement in advance to Pique, he had a fulfilling career having played more than 600 games and won 30 trophies for Barcelona is worthy of commendation, I wish he could have play for two more seasons, I remembered those days with nostalgia when Pique and Puyol were Barcelona center backs the duo had been very solid at the back and very consistent in their defensive role while covering for their goalkeeper Víctor Valdés, that was when Barca was playing Tiki-Taka style of football, it was a great pleasure watching Barcelona matches then, I am hoping to see Pique taking up a managerial role in the nearest future.

The story is too vague for me to believe it. If I remember with his own wife, they had disagreements over much smaller sums. If this is true and he formally refuses this money, then I am sure that in any case there are some hidden informal agreements between Barcelona and Piqué. Maybe they guarantee him some high position in the future.
And in any case, I do not welcome this. If the club lives beyond its means, then it must suffer and not rely on the generosity of creditors. I hope La Liga will punish Barcelona for such nonsense.

Surprised to hear the news that Gerard Pique announced that he would soon retire at the age of 35 to coincide with the last 1 match against Almeria which was his last match. many of his relatives and friends were surprised to hear this because at the age of 35, usually football players will spend their careers in relatively easy leagues such as MLS. but I saw some tweets from the legends of barcelona who judged that barcelona did not really appreciate his services this season because in addition to not getting more playing minutes, pique also had to receive a 2x salary cut from the crisis experienced by barcelona this season.

Guardiola refused to transfer Messi even when he was at a normal age. Do you really think that now that Messi has grown old and his results have obviously fallen, something has changed? I'm wondering where you heard these stories from. In my opinion Messi's move to City is simply not possible, and a move to Barcelona cannot take place for financial reasons.

Looking at Messi's current age I don't think there is a possibility of Guardiola signing Messi anymore. Messi has has grown old and in my opinion will not be able to cope with the aggressive nature of English football if he moves to Manchester City. I think Messi will finish his contract at PSG and move to a smaller division or club until retirement.  I think we are gradually passing that Messi and Ronaldo era and moving on to the future.

I disagree with you on this, Messi is just 35years old and age has nothing to with his prolific performance even as we have watched him play since this season at PSG, for a team like Manchester City, Messi can fit into their style of play and with Pep Guardiola in charge of the club, it will be more useful to sign Messi because he will be more influential in City with the kind of players in City and their playing pattern and formation. Messi and Ronaldo needs a club like City where they need to do lesser hard work to score goals and coming to City will not only boost the financial state of the club but will bring a lot of fans and investors to the team also. Messi and Ronaldo may not be the best players currently but their dominance in football history is second to none.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I think that Manchester United shouldn't release Ronaldo on free if he doesn't find a team for himself in January. He isn't one of the unnecessary players at the team in the end. It's just Erik ten Hag who doesn't give much chance to him in their EPL matches. I don't know if he has some other personal issues with Ronaldo. Otherwise it is really hard to understand why he is opposing Ronaldo.

Rashford isn't a consistent striker now. He wasted so many opportunities against Tottenham. I would have waited for Ronaldo to enter the match in the second half but it didn't happen. I would like to see him staying until the end of the season at least if he doesn't find a team.

I really cannot conceive that the directors of Man United turn their backs on CR7, at first CR7 was going to go to Man City and he rejected Man United out of respect and because he wanted to save them from imminent relegation, then they put in a technical director out of the ordinary and makes his life impossible, only after CR7's son died did he go to training, then he scored a goal against Arsenal and some who don't know anything say that CR7 lacks professionalism and yet, a coach who do not have any kind of respectable track record, dare to say and have them release a statement not to go to an important game, what kind of humanity is there in these people? I know that at a sporting level it is one thing, but that's it, we are human first and foremost.

In this case I don't see anything between Messi and City, but if there are some rumors I don't think there will be any reason to realize something like this because we know at Manchester City at this time the players are quite good at this time on the other hand I think with the presence of Mahrez and Foden on each side this can still be done without the need for Messi in the squad.
The presence of Messi will indeed make City more complete but I personally still feel that he is not needed for now.

I don't think that Manchester City need to be more complete right now. Because they already have many very skilled midfielders and a beast like Haalaand now. Haaland was like the missing piece of the puzzle for this team and it has been completed now. They have all the things they need to become the champions in the Champions League at the moment.

I don't think that Guardiola would like to see Messi in his team even though he has worked with Messi at Barcelona and he has admitted how amazing player he is. Messi would just continue to play for PSG until the end of the season. He even said before that he didn't want to talk about his future until the end of the World Cup. I won't be surprised if he decides to stay for at least one more year. Barcelona might not be in a very good financial condition to sign him maybe.

Uyu a Messi in Pep's team? Wow, I couldn't imagine something like that, it would be a very winning combination between Haaland and Messi, I would see it as feasible, what it is is that it is very difficult if he wants to leave PSG, I don't see Messi playing there, but things can happen , I do not rule out the possibility, City also needs to define many things, if they were not invincible, they are doing well in UCL, but I have seen that they have lost and that they have drawn with teams that relatively should not give problems to a team of that level, without However, I am a faithful believer that as Peo had already worked with Messi in Barcelona and under which, he gave him a lot of joy, why not?

~Snip~

His skill in opening space in tight areas of the opponent defense was an effective factor that made arsenal win big in the match against Nottingham, even though Jesus did not score a goal but his role in bringing victory to arsenal was very big so far, that's why I think it will be difficult for arsenal to release jesus if There are offers from other clubs at this time, Arsenal performance is starting to be quite consistent so it will be risky for Arsenal if they let go of one of the important pillars like Jesus, besides I don't think Jesus will accept Madrid's offer because as we know at this time Jesus feels comfortable at Arsenal and started to get his best performance after leaving from manchester city.

Arsenal success at the top of the Premier League table cannot be separated from the brilliant performance of Jesus, he has five goals and five assists in 15 games in all competitions with Arsenal. Jesus also contributed greatly to bringing Arsenal to the top of Group A Europa League. Jesus' slick appearance with Arsenal made Real Madrid interested in bringing Jesus to the Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid were also very interested in Bukayo Saka appearance. Real Madrid are determined to land both of them to the Santiago Bernabeu in January, this rumor puts Arsenal in danger, Arsenal are threatened with losing two mainstay pillars at once if Madrid manages to recruit him.

Jesus is planned to replace Benzema who will be 35 years old in December, Jesus is considered the right solution in front of Real Madrid in the following seasons. Arsenal will fence off Jesus and Saka with a contract extension proposal and the lure of a high salary. But if Real Madrid comes with a tempting offer, who can guarantee that both will stay at the Emirates Stadium. In the transfer market, money is everything.

Of course, yes, it is very possible that it is so, it is something that technically could happen, Gabriel Jesús can easily enter Anceloti's line-up, I also see Real Madrid filling a large part of their team with the Brassileros, so this seems to me to be something very intelligent, but everything will be defined after the World Cup in Qatar, I think that there, according to the performance of the teams, it will be seen who is who and how and when they will go to the new teams, what signings are possible and, above all, everything, who will be the player that clubs around the world will want to fight for the most, and that is something that always happened, at least before it was with Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Pique for sure is one of the greats, both for Barcelona and for his national team.
Unfortunately, his performances dropped by a lot and he's been on the bench a lot this season - so this decision makes sense.

He could still play but he's leaving at the right time if you ask me. Busquets would be smart to think about it as well.

Well, the truth is that I think this is something very strange, some players this year have had a very bad time, and apparently that has affected their game a lot, in the case of Piqué I think that the separation with Shakira is something that affected him , I did not see him in the headline again, after that problem he lowered the level, the truth is that this is something that is very difficult for some people to overcome, and above all, they are human, things like that affect, you have to look in the case of CR7, and few have had consideration, although many times a breakup with a partner is preferable than a child dies, so each person, each player, no matter how famous they are, have to carry their cross and cope, overcome it to move on, 35 years is still too young to retire.

Which job that has been doing well by xavi? i didn't even see that. Barcelona got nothing last year and it seems like barcelona will be repeating the worst result again this year. Xavi may become the worst coach for barcelona all time. The good performance from barcelona in la liga doesn't give guarantee if barcelona will be winning against another team like real madrid to get the title. The consistently needs to be proven to make sure if barcelona can get the title for this year.
Im not even hoping barcelona to win europa league caused by there are so many big clubs played on europa league. Some of them are even on fire like arsenal.

The achievements given by Xavi do not look much but in fact Xavi has tried his best to create a good game, but in reality Barcelona is not good,

Xavi doesn't have any achievement with barcelana. All of his achievements were when he was still became a coach for al sadd FC, it seems like the chance for xavi to be sacked by barcelona will be even bigger since he may failed in the europa league of this season. I don't even think he is still worthy to be used as a coach for barcelona. he must get more experience in managing the big club. Barcelona was in the different competition compared with al sadd FC.
barcelona is always facing so many world class clubs in any competition. Xavi's experience is not enough to make barcelona to win a trophy.

there is no other choice but to give another chance to Xavi because it is not easy to replace Xavi as coach from Barcelona.

It's easy to replace him. The club like barcelona can get a better coach than him. How long barcelona will give xavi the chance? Barcelona needs to rebuild the team as soon as possible. It must also back to the its golden form again to get more income.

Xavi claims that pique has experienced a decline in performance, besides that news about pique's discomfort at Barca has been heard a few months ago. In the transfer market next year, it is reported that Barca already has a stock of potential replacements for Pique, namely Benjamin Pavard (Bayern) and Inigo Martinez (Bilbao).
Pique's decision to retire immediately was not an easy one, he said that even though he doesn't play football anymore, he will remain loyal to support Barca.
