⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[rahmad2nd]

Jorginho move to Arsenal is indeed the most suitable team for him to play base on his age and base on the traditional tick tack way that Arsenal used to play, no much stress upon his shoulder, because Arsnal plays base on team work and not depending on any individual player. Then while for the Arsenal team, this is a nice boost for the club and squad in their long awaited title race. this shows that Arteta is a wise man.  Jorginho is an experience midfielder with good passes and touches, a bonus when it comes to taking penalties for the team.

Arteta is trying hard to bring in a midfielder that suits the team's needs in this January transfer window. however, Arsenal failed to bring in the players they were after. in the end, the choice fell on Jorginho. lucky for Arsenal, because after all the Gunners are short of stock midfielders.
Jorginho, could be an option to replace Partey who is recovering from his injury. at least, he can make his debut with the Gunners when playing against Everton in the next two days. although he is no longer young, he has the experience and skill requirements that Arteta can rely on.
as an Arsenal fan, I hope Jorginho can adapt quickly and show his best performance for the Gunners.

Thomas partey has been  part of the team, and there's no way jorginho Will replace him immediately, I think Arteta has a lot of decision to make in the team starting up.

Jorginho was brought in to help ease the workload off Thomas Partey in the Midfield. The number of times that Sambi Lokonga has been tried, he has proved not yet worthy to share the load with Partey which Elneny was doing. With Jorginho we now have an experienced midfielder that can be depended on in the case that Partey cannot play, or he is removed from a game, or a game where we need our midfield to be solid, the coach can play both of them as said already. My biggest hope however for him is that he adapts well to the club.
We have really spent less this Transfer season, but made good signings in some key positions. We got Trossard for 21million Euros, Kiwior for 17million euros and Jorginho for just 12million Euros, just a total of 50million Euros. We have done good business again.

I won’t lie, I wasn’t expecting him to sign for Arsenal, it’s better to sign someone than bringing no one, Jorginho is an experienced, proven player who’s going to bring something in the dressing room and on pitch. He is an addiction to the team and not necessarily Partey’s replacement. Arteta has always lauded the importance of getting another midfielder before the window closes because Mo Elneny is out injured while Sambi Lokonga hasn’t been performing really well in that role. Arsenal need some experienced legs to sail through the remaining part of the season.

Jorginho is not as good as he was before. But he can certainly play. I think he is actually going to be useful for Arsenal. I am quite sure that Arsenal is not going to expect something extraordinary from him. And I also think that experience is going to come in handy in the case of Jorginho.

Arsenal is heavily relying on good playmakers. They are making important plays from the midfield. The midfielders are also supplying good balls to the attackers. And that's where I think the experience of Jorginho is going to come into play a lot.

This is a signing that i am well pleased it, a perfect short term replacement for the injured Eriksen and a stop gap depth for Manchester United for the remaining 5 months of the season. It came late but it was worth it. Welcome Marcel Sabitzer to Manchester United

I am actually pretty surprised about that news. I followed the coverage of the deadline day on german sportsnews today in the early afternoon and one news or rumor there was, that Marcel Sabitzer will most likely go back to RB Leipzig. Seems like the things took a pretty big turn here. I just did a little research and it seems like the transfer to Manchester United is not done though. There is still no official confirmation from Manchester, Bayern or the player himself, so we still need to wait for that.
If that transfer goes through, then I think that ManU made a pretty good signing there. Sabitzer can be an exceptional midfielder if he is feeling good and also gets support from the coach.

Sabitzer is a good player, Having support from the coach like you said isn't what to border about cuz I believe the coach already has plans on how to use him before he went hunting him in the market.  Manchester United should only pray that he fits into England's nature of football because Sometimes players suit German football but find it difficult to adapt to England's pattern like in the case of Timo Wener. But I believe Sabitzer will be productive.

With this the Chelsea dressing room seems to be experiencing a bit of commotion, of course every player wants to get more playing minutes. Especially with several of his players currently injured and if they all recover, how will they manage these players? will this player who has just recovered from injury be sold to another club in the transfer market next summer? It seems that Chelsea is too greedy in the transfer market this time and doesn't want to know about the fate of its players in the future.

I think some players will be sold in the summer window. in depth the Chelsea squad is inhabited by players of high quality and even the arrival of Enzo will make the Chelsea squad strong enough for the rest of the season. Todd Boehly has spent quite a lot of money in changing the Chelsea squad to be stronger but I think the signing of Enzo can do the best for Chelsea this season.

indeed some of their core players are absent this season due to serious injuries, I think the players at Chelsea will continue to compete for the main place in every match.

Chelsea will do an overhaul at the end of the season, I think it has started already after season Jorginho going out to Arsenal and Ziyech attempting a move to PSG even though it failed. Chelsea at the moment are surplus of options in almost all positions and certainly will need to free up some wage loads at the end of the season.

Yea, I think Erik Ten Hag is in good position to bring back the lost Identity of Manchester United, watching Manchester United now gives you hope and believe that the club is headed in the right direction, but he needs time to get the team there, it's not going to be a one season fix, and if he gets the time he needs and the appropriate players he will surely take Manchester United to a new era that will bring back the lost glory of the club.
Manchester United is already in a cup final in his first season and still in contention for the top four spot, already through to the next round of the FA cup, and will later face Barcelona in the Europa League that's a positive sign of something good coming from the gaffer.

Die hard Manchester United fan but I'm still damn reluctant to say Erik Ten Hag has got this, deep inside if me, what he's done so far gladdens me deep to my bone but I want to see them winning the finals against Newcastle at Wembley finally.
But once Manchester United gets ride of the glazers as the owners and gets some sensible owners who wants to see the club winning trophies back to back would surely invest and re-invest in the club.

We headed the right directions if we sure continue this way. I believe we making quality signatures of players who has personality and character and also worthy of representing Manchester United badge.

Jorginho Will be an important player in the Arteta squad, he's well respected playmaker and a champion league winner in the squad. Jorginho Will  bring in his experience in to the team. It's really a great signing for Arsenal.  

Just as Manchester United took Sabitzer from Bayern Munich on loan, is a good midfielder  to replace injured Ericksen  till the end of the season. If he perform well this season, Ten Tag might sign him , everything wants to build a fordable team, and quality players determine

I don't know if Chelsea are going to get themselves into FFP problems because of the amount of money they have spent, both in last summer's transfer window and the just concluded January winter transfer window. Anyway i'm pretty sure the club knows what they are doing and they ought to know how to circumvent all that.

Having said that, Graham Potter is one of the few managers in the world right now that's spoilt for choice on players to select per game, it is a good thing to have, but it can also come with problems of too much rotation and struggles of keeping big players happy; there'd also be a huge amount of pressure on the manager to deliver, Potter has to ensure Chelsea finish in the top four, and then he has to win titles next season, or else he'll prolly be fired.

I don't think Chelsea will have FFP problems because in some of the news I've read, Chelsea has specified a gradual payment option in buying players in this case to prevent them from FFP violations.

Yes, Graham Potter has become the most pampered coach in this year's transfer window. Of course, there will be pressure for his task of bringing titles to Chelsea. if he failed then the consequences would be huge for his future.

I'm sure Arteta had a lot of options to consider if he wanted to bring Jorginho to the team. He will add him to the squad in the most correct way and will play him in the best position. I know Arteta is very good as a coach and I am sure that Jorginho will play very successful matches in this squad of Arsenal. They can take advantage of it for at least 2 seasons.

Potter should at least develop a game for his team. with such a good squad, I think Chelsea could enter the top 4 or at least catch up to the top 5 for the remaining matches. and it must also be noted that the teams above Chelsea must have a drop-in form too.
still curious, how Potter will make his squad better, or will it be the same. because he has already spent enough of Chelsea's money.

Arsenal advantage as you said, is the quality of the rotation of players who are evenly distributed so that when they play, everyone builds attacks. Arteta criteria for choosing players who have a hard-working mentality, don't depend on one or two players. Therefore Jorginho arrival was the right choice according to Arteta criteria. I don't doubt Arsenal's choice because in Arteta hands young players find skills much more quickly per individual. For example, Trossard, who in his first match was able to play nicely and solidly with all of Arsenal old players.

One of the things i so much like concerning arsenal is that they do not depend on a particular players compare to other teams. Arteta is just trying to strengthen every wing of Arsenal with talented players and with this strategy it will be difficult opposition to penetrate into Arsenal.   Jorginho coming to arsenal will really yield a good result , he is the kind of player arsenal needs for a midfielder. I can see the good qualities in the young players arsenal is bringing in.

Previously Arteta would have considered that, and from what I saw Arteta always brought in the players he really needed for his team. Arteta's strategy this season is extraordinary, he places more emphasis on effective play in every game. And also some of the players he brought in in the transfer market always showed good contributions to the team, even though at first it was doubtful but he continued to show that he was able to bring Arsenal in a better direction, and it was proven this season, even though it's still in the middle of the season but he deserves to be rewarded for his work.

Honestly I can’t seem picture how Arteta plans to use Jorginho to realise his full potential because Jorginho has barely been starting in games for Chelsea for a while and I think Chelsea were fed up with his average performance and were already seeking for a club to sell him to before now, lets just trust the process that Arteta could transform him to be better for Arsenal.

I don't think Chelsea will have FFP problems because in some of the news I've read, Chelsea has specified a gradual payment option in buying players in this case to prevent them from FFP violations.

No they won't have FFP problems (yet), but they will have a massive selloff problem.

Imagine some of those players fail and don't play up to standard, so you try to sell them. However, you must post them at a very large price, say 60m GBP for example, because you still have to pay the rest of the transfer fees, but since you can't because that will cause you to jump over FFP, you have to pass them on to the next guy.

And since most clubs will not spend a ridiculous amount of money to buy failed talents, they will be stuck with them for many years and as a result have less wiggle room to make new transfers. (most leagues have a 25-man squad limit).

And Chelsea has a long history of making expensive failed purchases (like e.g. Lukaku, and he wasn't even a Todd Boehly purchase by the way).

Very ironic that nobody in the news is talking about that.

[Jackl87]

Graham Potter is in a position to make the transfers he wants and right now he should think about who he will bring to the team and take that step.  The choice available to Potter is incredible.  There are situations such as the ability to spend unlimited.  After spending so much money, the main goal should be to get into the top 4 in the league and build a squad that can be champion for UCL next year.

So what happened to financial fairplay? I thought that it was introduced a few years ago to prevent that a club, that is owned by a sheikh, an oligarch or by other super rich people, can just buy every good player out there. Seems like financial fairplay is already dead again, what a shame. Also i want to  add that, just because you have a lot of money to spend, does not automatically guarantee success. How many Champions League trophies has Paris Saint Germain won since it is owned by that sheikh and since they have spent hundreds of millions of € for new players? None at all. So just because Chelsea has now spent a lot of money does not make them stronger.
Also just because they have spent 130 M€ for Enzo Fernandez does not mean that he is performing like a 130 M€ player. His market value is 55M€. It's Chelseas fault alone, that they have spent way to much for him.

Sergio Ramos’ future is up in the air as the veteran defender will become a free agent on June 30 when his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires. As of now, the capital club has yet to offer an extension.

Nonetheless, Mundo Deportivo reports that Ramos will have two destinations should PSG opt to move on from the Spanish defender. The first could be Al Nassr, the team that recently signed Ramos’ former Real Madrid teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Saudi Arabia-based team wants to launch a mega project and one of its objectives would be the Spanish defender. But another destination that is also waiting for Ramos is MLS.

The league has been getting a lot of attention since Ronaldo moved to Al Nassr, I can see Sergio Ramos playing in the Saudi Arabian league after seeing off his contract at PSG, I don't think PSG will offer an extension to Sergio Ramos and for a player of his calibre it is most likely that a club from Saudi Arabian league will be interested in signing him. If a good offer comes I'm sure Ramos will be happy to accept the deal.

I thought so too, but it seemed that Arteta saw something different in Jorginho so he decided to bring in and join the Arsenal squad. In the team he previously defended, indeed Jorginho has not been able to display anything very impressive, that's because the team he has strengthened has also declined as a whole. We'll see, what kind of touch will Arteta do for this one player.

Chelsea is in first place for the biggest spending in the 2022/2023 season. With their new owners and endless player spending budgets they are so crazy in this transfer market. If so much money has been spent and Chelsea haven't been able to achieve their target of being in the top 4 of the EPL table this season or even win a title in any other competition, I think this will be the worst transfer for Graham Potter's squad.

Graham Potter is in a position to make the transfers he wants and right now he should think about who he will bring to the team and take that step.  The choice available to Potter is incredible.  There are situations such as the ability to spend unlimited.  After spending so much money, the main goal should be to get into the top 4 in the league and build a squad that can be champion for UCL next year.

Even though there are so many options for Graham Potter to choose his players, with the distribution of less playing minutes it can make some of his players feel jealous and feel that Graham Potter doesn't consider him, that's what will be hard work for a coach. What's more, their target is to be the best in the EPL or even win in another competition, which is not easy for new coaches who still have minimal contribution to winning titles.

Here Graham Potter must be able to make their players more solid when they are on the field and a coach must be able to apply their tactics to players who are main starters so it is clear that with expensive players it is likely that he will be prioritized compared to previous players.
With the remaining half of the season still it won't be easy just to be in the standings in the top 4 of the Premier League I think the effort of hard work must be seen again how he manages players with so many brought in, if he can do it then next season it will be made the season for Chelsea.

Graham Potter is aware of the group of players that work best with his style of play. Although it will undoubtedly be challenging for Potter to select his best eleven players after the addition of new players to the team, all of the players are aware of their precise contributions to the team. It is now up to the coach to identify the best from these new players. His chances of winning a championship this season are extremely slim because he is a subpar coach leading a large club and is still learning. His primary goals for this season are to win a title and secure a position in the UEFEA.

Ronaldo alone brought so much awareness about the league to the world making history with just the move to that Saudi Arabian league
It's good too see him reuniting with old friends and teammates asides Sergio Ramos, Luka Modric has been rumoured to leave Real Madrid since he won't be having a contract extension from Real Madrid.
Paris Saint Germans already made replacement for Sergio Ramos as they have made complete meets Inter Milan player Skriner to be part of their squad next year.
