⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Alanaz]

This happened only because Arsenal do not have good players in the substitute bench. If Arsenal had good players on the bench, I think Arsenal could win the last match against Newcastle United. But obviously, that did not happen. Arsenal needs to bring in some new players so that they have better options on the bench. Otherwise, they might have to see the same thing happening which happened to them in the last match. And a coach cannot make good replacements if there are not good players who can be brought in on the field as good replacements.

Yes, this is very reasonable considering Arsenal want to maintain the top of the standings but are constrained by the lack of options for their players to meet the club's needs. One of their target players, Mykhalo Mudryk, does not seem to be moving closer to Arsenal, in fact, now the player wants to join Chelsea. In my opinion, Arsenal need refreshment in the attack line and hope that Mikel Arteta will find these new players soon.

I don't think the lack of selection of players on the bench is not the reason why Arsenal can only get a draw in the last match. The main reason was because Newcastle played well so that they closed the space created by Arsenal to penetrate their defense.
But if the point of this discussion is to add good players, I agree. Because they need a team that is more mature and ready again under any circumstances, so they must have good squad depth.

If Chelsea does not pay his full 106 million release clause up front, Benfica will not sell Enzo Fernandez to them. Following several unsuccessful attempts, Chelsea no longer wants to talk about Enzo Fernandez. Enzo will never be worth that much money, so they will regret it later. For that player, that's a lot of money. A third of the money could be used to sign another player that Benfica is asking for. What will happen to Enzo? Most likely, he'll stay.

Anyone who criticizes Ronaldo for making a move to the Al Nassr is not a fan because this is indeed a huge progress for Ronaldo. This is indeed a historical move that will go down in history. Ronaldo has achieved everything he wished to achieve in Europe and there is nothing left for him to accomplish. There’s no better time for this move. I only expect a return to Europe on managerial appointment. This will take his mind of the disastrous half season with Manchester United.

I'm a big fan of Ronaldo and am pleased with his decision to join Al Nassr after all the drama that got his contract terminated in Manchester United and how he was also humiliated by the Portuguese coach during the world cup in Qatar. It is big progress for Ronaldo to become the highest-paid footballer at age 37 when most of his mates are already retired and some are still struggling to get offers that will keep them on the pitch for one or two seasons but here is Ronaldo making more history with his new club and that's a whole lot of achievements if you ask me.

The return of Ronaldo to Europe as a manager won't be a bad idea because Ronaldo has done well for himself and the clubs he has been with and judging from the experience he has gathered from the managers he has worked with I don't think he will find the managerial work difficult.

Chelsea's unfavorable fate this season, apart from facing player transfer problems, now the Chelsea manager still hasn't confirmed the players he wants to target in the summer.

Chelsea don't want to pay that kind of money for Enzo Fernandez and on the other hand Benfica won't let the player go if not for the price they want, in this case it will be difficult to find a deal, unless they look at options for the transfer to go smoothly. I also think maybe the money would be more useful to Chelsea if it was allocated to other players, in other words they bought other players. Actually they can do it, it's just that maybe for now it's Enzo who is more attractive to Chelsea.

as the dutch newspaper 'de telegraaf' reported on thursday, the free agent and defensive player Daley Blind is already on his way to munich. a contract until the end of this season plus an option for another year is being sought with the 32-yo dutchman. DB contract at ajax amsterdam had been terminated shortly after christmas

Snip.

At least Arsenal have tried their best to shoot at the opponent's goal and it is a pity that Arsenal were unable to penetrate the defense of Newcastle, this is very unfortunate but it is better to get a draw than to lose and reduce Arsenal's points.

The draw that Arsenal just got is not a bad result for Arteta's team, their failure to penetrate the Newcastle defense indicates that Arsenal must look for a striker who can act as a differentiator. A typical striker like Benzema needs to be brought in while Jesus is injured, Arsenal must move in the transfer market to maintain performance in order to maintain its position in first place in the Premier League. Arsenal are also the top team in the Europa League due to their good performances since the start of the season, Arteta needs to find a strategy to deal with teams that are more dominant in defense to continue the positive trend.

Both teams performed well in that match. since they are now in good shape. Yes, Arsenal needs a strong striker, but there were other factors at play in the Newcastle game as well. In the league, Newcastle United features some of the best defenders. Arsenal made an attempt, but they were unsuccessful.

Gabriel Jesus, a striker who can breach any defense, was injured in the match, and Arsenal really missed him.

Arsenal needs to acquire a backup striker during the January transfer window. Beneze will not fit in at Arsenal. Arsenal needs a strong striker like Napoli's Osiemeh. Arsenal needs a striker of such caliber.

I don’t think they need another striker. They have Gabriel Jesus, 25 who’s currently injured and Eddie Nketiah, 23 has been the one playing in his absence. One thing I know about Eddie Nketiah's contract was the fact that he will be the second striker in the team. And Arsenal won’t want to breach that contract terms with him. Besides Osimhen is a first team player and a starter, there’s no way Arteta can keep him on the bench and play Gabriel Jesus or Vice versa. They are on the verge of signing a versatile winger and he will add depth to the attacking department and I it’s what Arsenal need at the moment.

Benfica can make a mistake by not selling Enzo.  After all, now he has shined and can be sent from the team with high costs.  The world cup has just ended.  Enzo is an important name, but being given so much money wears out the clubs financially.  Chelsea may not want to be in trouble with this transfer.  The premier league is a tough league.  Of course, they have to be more careful about the transfer.

Chelsea's unfavorable fate this season, apart from facing player transfer problems, now the Chelsea manager still hasn't confirmed the players he wants to target in the summer.

I'm not sure that Benfica wants to keep Enzo Fernandez, Benfica just wants to sell the prices of its players for a very high transfer fee. Likewise with another young player, Goncalo Ramos. Benfica is no doubt like the club from the German League, namely Dortmund, they want to sell their young players for a very high transfer value. that is why until now, negotiations for Enzo have been very tough even though the midfielder has actually been willing to play with Chelsea.

in fact, the journalist Fabrizio Romano has stated on his social media. that there is no agreement for the sale of Enzo Fernandez to Chelsea, but there is still time for Chelsea to finalize this deal. however the longer it drags on, the more likely it is that another club steps in and hijacks the deal.

I'm sure, if Chelsea bring Enzo to Stamford Bridge, he can become a mainstay player in midfield to help Chelsea's front line. even so, if Benfica continues to insist on an unreasonable transfer fee. I think it's better for Chelsea to look for other players who have the same qualities as him.

Chelsea made a lower bid than what Benfica wanted. benfica will expressly not release Enzo Fernandez if chelsea is unable to meet the asking price according to what benfica wants. It is this one side that hampers the agreement between Chelsea and Benfica. In addition there is no clear spot whether Chelsea will move forward to submit a higher bid or Chelsea will look at other options by looking at other players.

Regarding Rafael Leao, it looks like he will agree to a new contract proposed by AC Milan because in some news, Tonali leaked that Leao was very happy at Ac Milan.

Benfica took advantage of Enzo Fernandez's good moments at the Qatar world cup too much so they set a very high price, I also think it will be a big mistake for benfica if they are too selfish in maintaining a high price.
because gradually it is not impossible that Enzo Fernandez's performance will decline with Benfica especially since the player now wants to start a career in a top European team, so I think it is difficult for Benfica to hold him back if they force it, it will be a big loss for the Benfica team.

Regarding the transfer rumors with Chelsea, it is now very rushed, Chelsea considers that Benfica does not respect them with no further discussions except for a predetermined price.

as the dutch newspaper 'de telegraaf' reported on thursday, the free agent and defensive player Daley Blind is already on his way to munich. a contract until the end of this season plus an option for another year is being sought with the 32-yo dutchman. DB contract at ajax amsterdam had been terminated shortly after christmas

This transfer could definitely make sense for every party that is involved, which is always the best case scenario in this business. First of all Blind obviously does not have a club at the moment and now he maybe has the chance to play for one of the biggest and best clubs in the world. It also makes sense from the perspective of Bayern Munich. Sadly Lucas Hernandez suffered a major injury and he will miss the rest of this season. This is a very heavy blow for Bayern in my opinion. With  Blind they would have another player for the defense, which is always a good thing because it is possible that another defense player gets injured.

Chelsea is quite active right now in looking for new players, their position which is now in the middle of the standings is certainly not a good enough achievement so that it requires Chelsea to recruit new players especially some time ago Chelsea has been abandoned by some of their important players, weak defense Chelsea after left by Rudiger and several other defenders was the reason for Chelsea to dare to pay Badiashile handsomely, apart from that I think Badiashile ability to perform aerial duels will further strengthen Chelsea defense, now it is reported that Chelsea is also still targeting several other players such as Enzo Fernandes, Declan Rise and Mudryk, so let's see what other surprises Chelsea will give their fans in the January transfer market..!

I don't think so. Enzo itself already agreed with chelsea but benfica was only let him go once chelsea paid 120 millions. Rui costa was a fucking greedy. Look at how garbage team like benfica got defeated by braga easily. That proves that benfica is not a reliable team for enzo. Enzo's career can gradually increase once he will be going to the chelea. I don't like the way how benfica's president was insulting chelsea in front of enzo.
Enzo doesn't like with that team anymore. that's why enzo wanna go to the stamford bridge.

Bayern needs players, and at the same time Daley Blind also needs a team, it's a mutually beneficial partnership even though for a while the contract is quite short. But that's also still with the option of extension where if Daley Blind plays well then I think Bayern Munich will not hesitate to extend his collaboration. Bayern Munich has taken a good first step in filling the current vacant position.

It is believed that The FA Cup match against Manchester United might determine Lampard's future at Everton. Lampard barely saved the team from relegating from the English Premier League last. I was hopeful about them to recover by the beginning of this season but nothing has changed obviously. They can't win games properly and this is hindering them from saving themselves from the relegation area. They are very likely to leave their fate to chance on the final weeks.

I don't know if Everton have plans about some other manager to bring soon. If they don't then we might see Lampard until the end of the season. But even if he saves the team again I don't think that Everton would like to continue with him.

This was my thought before Manchester City or rather Pep Guardiola changed my view. look very well at Manchester city before Jesus left them, he was playing second to Aguero and they won tittles. Just look at the current city attack they have Alvarez playing second Fiddle to Haaland. So squad depth is something you need to challenge for not just League titles but also for European trophies. So it’s a great thing if they feel to bring in another top striker

Chelsea have give offering about 80 million euro for Enzo Fernandez but Benfica not reach agreement without get offering above 130 million euro, edit not 120 million euro reported from uk.dailynews. I don't think how crazy with Benfica asking above 130 million euro for Enzo Fernandez due he has impressive performance in World Cup 2022 only.

Can't predicting he will success adapt with Primer League and seems most expensive if Chelsea agree pay above 130 million euro, actually Enzo Fernandez not really have much experienced in Champion League and few trophies collected due his career as professional football. Seems 80 million euro could be good deal for Chelsea and Benfica reach transfer for Enzo Fernandez.

[CLS63]

I think the real problem with Everton is absolutely related to the management of the team. Lampard is obviously not the right choice for the team. We even haven't figured out what team is fitting him the best. Because he didn't have a good time period with Chelsea in the past as well. Maybe he still needs more experience as a manager to improve his skills.

Everton weren't usually this much bad before. Maybe they weren't having solid seasons either but at least they were able to finish at middle positions at worst. They need to make their move to bring back those times.
