I do agree with this article that discussed about what things that must be completed by pochettino.

Since pochettino has become a new head coach of chelsea. Pochettino will have so many jobs to be done in chelsea. The main job to rebuild the chemistry in the club. Chelsea has been loosing it last season. It will be a disaster for the club if chelsea gonna repeat same mistake again.
So many chelsea fans are counting on him right now. Chelsea needs to go back again to compete with top clubs in EPL.
It's a shame the came of todd has been making the club performed even worst than before. A difficult time already passed by the club. it's time for pochettino to open the new story with chelsea.

For Chelsea fans, don't expect too much from Pochettino, because it's not easy to build a club as big as Chelsea from scratch and with a composition of replacing almost 95% of the old players with new ones. Moreover, this is a big club, the demands are even higher when you don't qualify for the top 5, so I'm sure Pochettino will be criticized by the fans. Want to be ideal for next season's performance that relies on a squad overhaul? anyone who wonders about the qualities of an outstanding coach will find it difficult to convince him. See what Pochettino will do in all aspects, both internal and external. Not as easy as snapping fingers and in an instant Chelsea turned into a scary club in the most difficult league competition in the world.

Im hearing very good news about hazard, after hazar's departure from real madrid and he has got an offer from intermiami to play together with messi, alba or even busquets. Hazard was a rival for those players once he was still playing for real madrid but it's likely hazard will be on the same team with ex barcelona players. It's a good chance for hazard to continue his career in the professional football. Im seeing goal was just reporting it.

After signing Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets, Inter Miami have been flirting with a host of players and Hazard is the latest big name they have targeted, according to Relevo. The Belgium international would join Messi as one of the club's Designated Players should he agree to the switch, which allows them to sign players outside of their salary cap.

I will call him stupid enough if he will be missing a chance to join in intermilami. I do understand if intermiami was the worst club in MLS but he can at least still play football. He has been losing a lot once he was joining in real madrid.
Kroos was even slammed him for not use his golden opportunity in real madrid. Hazard must accept it or it will be so bad for him.

Hazard has accumulated a big amount of wealth during his time at Real Madrid. It would be unwise and disadvantageous for him not to seize the opportunity to play alongside Messi especially with his performance at Real Madrid, it is unlikely that any reputable club would settle for him, especially considering the leverage risk posed by his re-occoring injury. Starting afresh in Inter Miami is not a bad move, provided the terms of his contract are reasonable. In my opinion, it could benefit his career as playing alongside Messi would garner media attention. If he performs well, he could potentially secure a lucrative return to the Premier League, reminiscent of his successful days at Chelsea.

The chance to return to the Premier League is almost non-existent. How should he even perform such that teams from the Premier League decide to hire him back to England when in fact he will still be prone to injuries and has only proven his performances in a league that is inferior to the EPL?  I think it would be good for him to also have a goal to look forward to that doesn't put as much pressure on him like an engagement with Real Madrid. But I wouldn't underestimate the medical checks here as Inter Miami will also do their thorough due diligence before they sign him. If there are signs that his injuries aren't fully cured or that he could potentially be injured very soon again, I am not sure yet whether that transfer will work out in the end.

PSG is not a world-class club? I think you're wrong on this point because regardless with the myriad of big players there they are one of the clubs that are in the world class even when talking about the Champions League they are always one of the candidates to win even though they can't contribute much every season.
On the other hand, when it comes to Pochettino he couldn't contribute much to PSG in the Champions League and that's a fact that can't be changed because they lost in the last 16. Even if this is a bit outrageous, it is a fact that cannot be forgotten because in the end, winning Ligue 1 did not satisfy Nasser Al Khelaifi.

A team can be included in world class teams if they can compete against other teams.

It's funny you include PSG in world class teams because they're always qualify for Champions league. To qualify for Champions league, the team need to win in their local league, Ligue 1 a farmer league where there's no team can compete PSG.

If PSG move to Premier league or Serie A, maybe they will only qualify for Champions league for once in 3-5 years due to poor quality of the players.

In the 2019/2020 season they were in the final only that time they had to be eliminated from Bayern and had to give up the Champions League trophy.
The 2020/2021 season they failed in the semi-finals from Manchester City and their bad luck in the 2022 and 2023 seasons because they had to meet Madrid in the last 16 phase.
I think that is proof that they can still compete, it's just that when 2 consecutive seasons meet the same club (Madrid) then obviously it is a difficult thing because even though from possession they win but in terms of experience they are clearly far behind but it would be a different story if maybe in the last 2 seasons they did not meet Madrid because they could have talked more on the PSG stage.
We cannot say the comparison that they in the EPL or Serie A may very rarely be in the Champions League because it is impossible even when we remember in the Champions League last season Juventus also had to be willing to be in 3rd place after PSG beat them in the group phase 2 times in a row.

Another move from Khelaifi today. He said Mbappe got 2 weeks to make the decision about himself and extend his contract or he will have to leave PSG or another team.
This can show us that Khelaifi is again putting more pressure on Mbappe to stay there in PSG otherwise the doors are open for Mbappe and he get closer to Real Madrid.

I don't know but i personally feel like this is not a really a valid threat to Mbappe because he already made clear that he does not want to prolong his contract at PSG and that he wants to join another club instead. If this is true though then this means that Mbappe will definitely leave PSG this summer and this could make things very interesting.
So far Real Madrid was the big favorite to sign Mbappe, but everyone knows that Real has very high debts already and they already made a very big transfer this summer with Jude Bellingham which cost them more than 100 Million € already. The transfer fee for Mbappe will probably be way higher than that so Real would probably have to sell a few of it's players if they really want to sign him this summer.

Another move from Khelaifi today. He said Mbappe got 2 weeks to make the decision about himself and extend his contract or he will have to leave PSG or another team.
This can show us that Khelaifi is again putting more pressure on Mbappe to stay there in PSG otherwise the doors are open for Mbappe and he get closer to Real Madrid.

It seems interesting what happened between PSG and Mbappe, even Khelaifi's threat by giving Mbappe a two-week deadline to extend his contract or he will be sold. But difficult finding any team want to pay highest transfer fees including add on bonuses for Mbappe if want stay with PSG until his contract over. Actually if not reach agreement deal contract extend seems Mbappe will be sell to other teams under 100 million euro due has chance for every teams sign him as free transfer on next season.

I don't think with huge pressure from Khelaifi will make Mbappe on difficult position, he has decision stay until his contract over and earn bonuses clause with PSG above 90 million euro.

Hardly anyone would have expected that PSG and Kylian Mbappe's situation had heated up towards the end of the summer and now PSG have given Mbappe firmness in two weeks to make his next decision. I think this problem is quite complicated and from an individual point of view, no one wants to be harmed. But as a player, Mbappe has to determine his future and even if he does stay it is likely that over time he will not feel comfortable at PSG. I think a fee of under 100 million euros will bring competition between the top European teams and for chelsea or real madrid that would be very easy to agree on in the near future.

Both parties will remain in their respective decisions, this issue looks very complicated and from my view it will be very difficult for PSG and Mbappe to find the best solution for them. With the various pressures that Mbappe is currently feeling, I don't think there is any reason for him to agree to a contract extension with PSG, because it is true, as you said, that it is possible that future situations will make Mbappe uncomfortable. Now his career is increasingly being discussed and has spawned various speculations, I heard that Chelsea has made plans to offer PSG by exchanging four Blues players along with cash for quite a fantastic nominal amount in hopes of exchanging him for Mbappe. I think this is what PSG wants, they can get a lot of benefits if they agree to an offer from Chelsea. But maybe Mbappe will thwart their plans by staying on until his contract expires.

Hazard is injured too often, and that must be considered by Inter Miami if you want to sign him. after Messi and Busquets were successfully brought in, now Hazard is a player that is being targeted. but we know how he gets injured very often. and even then it can be a loss for the team if it happens too often.
but pairing Hazard with Messi seems like a good strategy. this might work to change the team to dominate this season. because I'm not sure Hazard will be able to play consistently for several seasons. because he is very often to injury.

In my opinion, it could benefit his career as playing alongside Messi would garner media attention. If he performs well, he could potentially secure a lucrative return to the Premier League, reminiscent of his successful days at Chelsea.

Most certainly the best deal that could come his way for now because everyone is well aware of the fact that he is an injury prone player and most club wouldn't want to sign a player that would later become a liability to the club just as his stay in real Madrid turn out. Hazard is a good player no doubt and having a chance to play with messi will also maybe bring out his best once more because messi has a touch that alway brings  out the best in players so inter isn't a bad deal if you ask me .

A surprise: Angel Di Maria is not going to Saudi Arabia, he is going to Portugal to Benfica Lisbon. He was only in Italy for one year, but he played good football there, so I thought he would be taken by a club with a lot of money at the end of his career. He is 35 years old and at that age maybe they are done with football, or you keep playing for fun or for big money. But he has decided to return, after 16 years he goes back to Benfica, to the club where he was in younger years.

[nara1892]

Hazard is injured too often, and that must be considered by Inter Miami if you want to sign him. after Messi and Busquets were successfully brought in, now Hazard is a player that is being targeted. but we know how he gets injured very often. and even then it can be a loss for the team if it happens too often.
but pairing Hazard with Messi seems like a good strategy. this might work to change the team to dominate this season. because I'm not sure Hazard will be able to play consistently for several seasons. because he is very often to injury.

Inter Miami needs the arrival of players who are ideal enough on the field, while Hazard we all know apart from being injured on the field often doesn't find a match to play. Even at Real Madrid, when Ancelotti gave him the confidence to play, he didn't put it to good use. Surprisingly his salary is quite tempting. Without playing optimally, the payment is the most expensive in Madrid. Therefore, if Inter Miami wants to bring Hazard, it is better to reconsider this decision.

A surprise: Angel Di Maria is not going to Saudi Arabia, he is going to Portugal to Benfica Lisbon. He was only in Italy for one year, but he played good football there, so I thought he would be taken by a club with a lot of money at the end of his career. He is 35 years old and at that age maybe they are done with football, or you keep playing for fun or for big money. But he has decided to return, after 16 years he goes back to Benfica, to the club where he was in younger years.

Di Maria is my favorite player, he knows where to land and takes advantage of the skills he still has
to donate to his favorite club. At 35 years old and with Di Maria's level of health, I'm sure Benfica can put his services to good use. Initially I thought Saudi Arabia's offer would tempt him and other rumors such as his visit to Messi in Miami led to a lot of speculation that Di Maria would join. But in the end, Benfica became an unexpected choice after so long wandering.

The article is spot on. in my opinion i think Pochettino has got a huge huge job at Chelsea. He is required to build the squad from the ruins because presently, there is no core to build the team with. Pochettino needs to find a new core; find a balance and then proceed to build chemistry for the new team ahead of the start of the new premier league season. Its a very very top tough job. With top squad players such as Mount, Harverts and Azpicueza off to different clubsides; it is even tougher. Hopefully, Pochettino has a good reign at Chelsea.

[lizarder]

Manchester United were able to bring in Mason Mount at a high price, all because Erik Ten Hag knew that Mason Mount's performance was actually very good, it's just that at Chelsea he didn't get good training or indeed the previous Chelsea coach wasn't good at managing the performance of their players.
Joining Mason Mount at Manchester United will prove that it is not that bad and will make a good contribution to welcome next season.
I am sure that the arrival of Mason Mount at Manchester United will strengthen his performance as well as strengthen his defense.

Erik Ten Hak chose Mason Mount has also gone through the process of identifying the quality of players and I am sure that he will not choose someone who does not have potential, so the decision to sign him has been carefully considered and I am sure that under Erik Ten Hak Mason Mount will develop. If you look at Chelsea's condition in the previous season, it's not only Mason Mount who hasn't progressed and there are many other players who are also experiencing the same condition as him.

I think we will see how in the next season he will contribute to Man United, giving an assessment too soon for him is also not right because after all he has not played under Erik Ten Hak. The arrival of Mason Mount to Man United will definitely have a good impact on the team because he is a real creative midfielder.

I think Hazard is an amazing player despite suffering injuries. Inter Miami would have surely known that and still wants him among their ranks. I wouldn’t call it a loss for Inter Miami if they decide to go through with bringing in Hazard into the squad as Hazard, in my opinion can still deliver.
While he may not be able to consistently play, I think he could very well still make an impact in the club. And paired with Messi, it would be almost like a walk in the park for him. Besides the MLS isn’t as competitive as the premier league or the Spanish league so I think Hazard would do just fine if he makes the move.

Update: Andre Onana transfers to Manchester United

Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1676960627796082695

Currently Manchester United has made its third offer for Inter with details of 45 million euros plus add ons of 5 million euros and it seems that this offer is still below the desired cost by Inter of around 60 million euros. I think Manchester United have done the right thing with their latest offer and it is possible that if Manchester United insists then the costs will be covered in a total of 55 million euros.

Inter should be able to consider this big offer from Manchester United because at this time they also need funds to add new players in various positions and considering that currently the only club interested in Andre Onana is Manchester United, I think they must immediately terminate the contract agreement with Manchester United because if too long it is likely that Manchester United will go find another goalkeeper.

I'm super excited the player also feels the same way about the swith to Manchester United, wanting to work again with Erik Ten Hag.
Manchester United shouldn't lack on this please, even if they'll keep David De Gea, I mean extend his contract. ( That I'm not so certain )
All hands should be on deck and make sure Onana is signed. The price for the shot stopper seems smaller than what Inter Milan expected but man's sure they'll get to full conclusion before 13th July.

When you look at the video clips of the Champions League finals between Manchester City and Manchester United, Onana did had the composure and confidence with his both feets. Hopefully this deal gets completely done.

It was obviously a big emotional decision for him. Any player that decides to go back to his old club instead of going to Saudi where he could get a huge amount of money is certainly a decision that I think we all have to respect.

But at the same time if he did decide to go to Saudi a huge amount of money which could have been great for him. I think he is going to Saudi and making sure that the retirement money was going to be huge would have been there. But as I said this was certainly a very emotional decision for him. I do believe that it would have been a better decision to go to Saudi, but I do respect his decision and I understand why he decided to go to Benfica.

Pochettino really needs to be able to devote one hundred percent of his thoughts to Chelsea from now on so that Chelsea can return to its true form. Because it is not easy to revive a team that has fallen like Chelsea with several players who have left for other teams, so Pochettino himself has to look at other players through the transfer market before the new season starts. Because Chelsea really needs the best players to make a big comeback next season with the tactics owned by Pochettino.

Manchester United still haven't agreed to the price Inter Milan want, yes it happens because of the limited money they have in the transfer market, because the Glazers limit the money they will spend on buying players. But Manchester United did not want to just give up when the offer they submitted was previously rejected by Inter Milan, now they are bringing a new proposal with a higher offer even though it has not reached the price Inter Milan wants.
Manchester United are struggling to move now, and if their third offer fails, then they must look for other options at a price they can afford to spend.

Classic United

They always start far below the club values the player. Still I do agree 60m is a bit much for a goalkeeper though. Best thing that they have done is to get Onana to agree on personal terms [1] which at some point might be a way to make pressure on Inter Milan (like Mount did on Chelsea). I think if things drag on for too long, United might go for extension of contract of De Gea as I don't see any other goalkeeper that is reported to be in their list.

Inter are trying to make most of it if you ask me. I think they will accept around 50-55m fixed. 45m + 5 is not bad though but like I said Inter think they can get more out of United still. United have just started on Onana and Inter knows United when interested in a player drag negotiations a lot. Once United makes a bid and makes it as a final one to Inter for Onana, I think Inter gonna accept it.

Because Chelsea really needs the best players to make a big comeback next season with the tactics owned by Pochettino.

With Chelsea's current roster, I'm not sure Pochettino can do what they want. So I think they are insufficient. They need new players. These new players need to adapt to the team. Pochettino has a really tough job with this. Big changes are needed in the squad for Chelsea to return to their old days. In fact, Pochettino's presence greatly contributes to Chelsea's true potential. If they can use this potential, we can see a really strong Chelsea on the pitch.
