⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Huppercase]

Chelsea has so much raw talent and needs a coach/manager to mould it to the perfect talent otherwise it's make or break for these guys.

Chelsea are doing a bad business,they are selling their players that have already flopped to teams.They knew that Karl Harvetz and Mason Mount are no longer useful,but they sold them to Arsenal and Manchester United respectively.They sold those players for very big money when they know the players cannot produce half of the amount they sold them for.

They sold Karl Havertz and Mason Mount, what happened after that? Chelsea hasn't impress me since they did all those sold out players. Mount wasn't good enough in there eyes but he is already making good contributions to Manchester United even as they flop in their last match with Arsenal but still better in ball possessiveness. Havertz is also doing well in Arsenal with a strong midfield compression, you see now that Chelsea problem wasn't about the old players but understanding their games because there is nothing Chelsea has not change this season, only Todd Boehly is the only one left and if they continue in this path, very soon he will change Chelsea and go face another business. 

The only manager I have loved since Tuchel left is this resent manager, Pochetino,he believes in building players to the highest level,that is why he has brought some unknown names to the club this season,and if you look at how they are playing,you will definitely love it,despite the fact that they've not won much games this season,they are playing good football,and the injury to Nkunku has been the reason why they find it difficult to get goals in games.

Tuchel is the only manager that has tolerance to accept whatever Chelsea brings home but sadly the political goons surrounded by Todd Boehly didn't make him see things clearly but now, he doesn't need any body to tell him or judge Chelsea performance, it's all writen in their faces that the club is lagging behind, they better act fast before things shattered, because I don't think even good players will be motivated to come and play for them again.

Looking at the situation Chelsea are experiencing in the Todd Boehly Era at the moment I feel their problem from the start is only one, namely the haste in taking action.
They did not really think about the impact that occurred when making decisions and only focused on positive results where Chelsea's initial assumption was that with the new era they had to show something good with the money they had but instead this became the wrong choice when they quickly changed coaches like Tuchel who was replaced and continuously changed players at high prices but the role at the club seemed not very useful.
In these 2 seasons they always do things like this which makes them even more difficult and pressed by the situation where the new players are still not in sync with each other and the coaches who are still unable to build chemistry.
Some players like Havertz actually it can still be useful for Chelsea although currently at Arsenal his performance is declining but when Havertz at Chelsea I think he is always a differentiator in every match that is done but back again with the Chelsea scheme that rushes to take action because it wants instant results makes this difficult for them themselves.

It's true that we know that currently Chelsea doesn't have a creative midfielder like KDB or Odegaard who can always supply the ball to his teammates to score goals, but on the other hand, their attack line doesn't have anyone who can do that finishing. If you ask me where Mudryk is placed, I will put him on the bench until the season ends then sell him to another club. Everyone knows this player is very useless and Chelsea has certainly lost a lot because of this worst purchase. I saw that he had failed as a young player and was now nothing more than an amateur football player. It's a shame that Chelsea spent a lot of money on Mudryk last winter.

wait what? Are you confused?
KDB is at Manchester City and Odegaard is at Arsenal. What does that have to do with Chelsea?
For the striker position I prefer to convince Jackson because in my opinion he still has quite good potential only for now he still cannot show his best performance for Chelsea. On the other hand, currently there is still Nkunku, it's just that we know that he currently cannot be expected with his condition still in the treatment room. As for Mudryk, this is indeed very difficult to talk about because trying to say that he still needs a chance to adapt is also difficult if you look at his current performance and indeed Mudryk is one of the players with a purchase that can be said to be a failure.

It seems like you don't know how to describe a player and what I'm saying is Chelsea needs a creative midfielder like KDB or Odegaard, isn't that obvious? But you understand my sentence as saying that these two players play for Chelsea. Well, I will understand your way of thinking.

Niklas Jackson does have potential, but with big responsibilities at a young age, his mentality is still not ready, especially since he has to defend a team that was very chaotic last season. Nkunku has been out due to injury for 4 months and starting from the start of Chelsea's EPL match, he will recover in about 3 months. As for Mudryk, maybe you already know and I don't need to add more, this player can no longer be expected to play football and it's lucky that Arsenal didn't buy him.

It doesn't matter where KDB or Odegaard plays. First of all I wouldn't put these two players into the same category as KDB is unmatched when we talk about assists as KDB is in the club of 100+ assists historically. Maybe Odegaard can one day reach his number of assists, but that's a very long way to go for him.

It's easy to say what a club needs when you take the best players in the world as an example. Chelsea needs an Mbappe and a 25 years of age Messi. They also need a Zidane. I guess you get my point.  

@rendravolt I do understand what you mean though. But I think before trying to find the next KDB, Chelsea should try to build a cohesive team that is willing to work and suffer together. They are buying all these superstars and everyone wants to be the most expensive transfer and earn the most money, but it looks like they don't really take on the challenge and have the back of each other during their games. It is like Chelsea is rolling the dice with high stakes every time the transfer market opens and hope it works out. That's not how a top team is built.

Chelsea and England defender Reece James, 23, has been earmarked by Real Madrid as a long-term replacement for Spain's Dani Carvajal, 31. James signed a six-year contract with the Blues in 2022. (Diario AS - in Spanish)

I consider Reece James to be one of the most solid right back's in the world, the only issue with him is that he gets injured more often than not, so that will surely be a concern for whoever his employers are. Chelsea would definitely be unwilling to sell Reece James, with him in their team they wouldn't have to worry about a right back for a long, long time.

Having said that, things change pretty fast in football, Chelsea aren't doing particularly well at the moment, thus if it continues, it is possible that James might want to leave, but one thing is sure, and that's that he is going to cost quite a lot of money, but if Real Madrid is the club interested, then obviously money wouldn't be a problem.

Tuchel is the only manager that has tolerance to accept whatever Chelsea brings home but sadly the political goons surrounded by Todd Boehly didn't make him see things clearly but now, he doesn't need any body to tell him or judge Chelsea performance, it's all writen in their faces that the club is lagging behind, they better act fast before things shattered, because I don't think even good players will be motivated to come and play for them again.

In fact, after the Tuchel coaching era, both the player's performance and the end of the season show clearly that it was a bad decision. Because under Tuchel's tutelage, we can all enjoy Chelsea's game which has an undoubted mentality, even in terms of management outside the players it is neatly structured.

Looking at the situation Chelsea are experiencing in the Todd Boehly Era at the moment I feel their problem from the start is only one, namely the haste in taking action.
They did not really think about the impact that occurred when making decisions and only focused on positive results where Chelsea's initial assumption was that with the new era they had to show something good with the money they had but instead this became the wrong choice when they quickly changed coaches like Tuchel who was replaced and continuously changed players at high prices but the role at the club seemed not very useful.

Rush, or more precisely in my opinion, in the Todd Boehly era, was considered a lack of understanding of football. What he did and his policies only ended in many mistakes starting from coaches, buying players, including sales. For example, retaining bad players and selling players with good capacity. Plus, as long as Todd Boehly isn't replaced soon, this monotony will continue. It is increasingly difficult to predict what direction Todd Boehly will take in leading a club that has long had big names but has increasingly lost its winning mentality.

Manchester City is rumored to be trying to bring in AC Milan star players in the winter transfer market. Pep hopes City can bring in Leao. However, Leao currently has a contract with AC Milan until 2028. Several media reported, to be able to successfully bring in Leao, City must be willing to pay at least 175 million euros. If this transfer process really happens, AC Milan will experience a decline in performance, because Leao is an important player for Milan at the moment. I'm not sure if there is a player ready to replace Leao.

Chelsea had nkuku who can play as attacking midfielder as well. This club lack of player that can support its striker. I remember when nkuku was always helping jackson in scoring during the pre season.
The sad thing if chelsea miss him now due tot he his injury. Chelsea has bought cole palmer which can be an answer for chelsea's attacking line but the main problem is palmer was feeling so difficult in adapting to the club.
Too many young players without enough experiences in the club. This is hurting the club so much.

Chelsea is confusing to solve the problem on its attacking line. The defenders are also showing decline on its performance. It's hard to imagine this club will able to go to the top 10 this season.
It's unlikely to happen with chelsea. This club will be also facing so many hard matches.

Tuchel is the only manager who has tolerance to accept whatever Chelsea brings home but sadly the political goons surrounded by Todd Boehly didn't make him see things now, he doesn't need anybody to tell him or judge Chelsea's performance, it's all written in their faces that the club is lagging, they better act fast before things shattered, because I don't think even good players will be motivated to come and play for them again.

It is a highly regrettable decision made by the Chelsea board and its current owner Todd Boehly to sack Thomas Tuchel seeing that they are yet to get it right with a manager to handle the team and turn things around greatly for Chelsea. If you fast-forward back to the time when Tuchel was still managing Chelsea,  it was more interesting to watch Chelsea than now. However, I still think Pochettino should be given a little more time to see if he can fix things right and get Chelsea back on track.

That's too much, although Leao is a young talented player, but his performance isn't worth for 175 Million Euros, such amount worth for Haaland or Osimhen. 125 Million Euros already the highest money to sign Leao.

AC Milan is to slow to develop their squad, they're always rely to Giroud when he's already 36 years old. I think AC Milan is fine if Leao leave their team because they have Pulisic which is ex Chelsea's player.

Leao is a talented player and I believe AC Milan would tie him down with a better contract offer to wade off Man City purported offer, I watched some AC Milan matches last season Leao was such a creative attacking player who created many scoring chances and assist for Giroud and also a good pacy dribbler and delightful to watch, AC Milan must have a better replacement for him before considering selling him to Man City, Guordiola has a star-studded and strengthened squad already I don't think there is any need to sign new players Leao now considering the fact many of the players would need regular playing time.

Chelsea are the impatient ones to be honest. Well it's now become a modern culture of changing managers as soon as team starts developing series of inconsistent performance. Tuchel was really a great manager but in the end the new owners didn't like some of his decisions and parted ways with Tuchel. I think with Pochettino it will be same despite what wishes and opinions their fans or us have.

Chelsea wasted a lot of money on transfers they just wanted superstars in their team and paid big money but that isnt how football goes. You need players that can go well with each other and thats why Chelsea keeps on having bad matches and looks like another bad season if they dont change something quick.

The funniest part about it all the issues that Chelsea has right now is that they tried to solve the actual issue by doing the same mistake again. It became obvious that money isn't the sole solution and that it needs planning and sophisticated scouting for players who fit well together, but no, they just did the same mistake. Use as much money as they can to get as many superstars as they can and then hope that these incompatible superstars become a superior unit and dominate the Premier League. That's funny considering that Todd Boehly deems himself a professional in sports business and club building.

Replacing Todd Boehly? That's an impossibility.
Who would buy Chelsea at such a high price and in such a chaotic state as it is now especially would Todd want to leave with the losses he has earned while at Chelsea? I don't think that will be possible.
I'm actually quite sorry to see Todd at the moment where the money he poured out which is certainly not small has not gotten any results and is increasingly making him get losses but this is the impact of the strategy he practiced to bring Chelsea with a path that was considered instant and with his haste in taking action.
Things that have happened last season and his movements at the start of the season by entrusting the reshuffle of current players have not shown good results, he should have realized enough by now that being a club owner who interferes too much in terms of management is a mistake.

Leao performance during playing at Milan was very consistent that's why Milan has decide to extended his contract until 2028 and at his new contract Milan was putting a release clause approximately 100 millions but last time i heard Milan want 150 millions to those who want to buy him and i am sure if Manchester City want to bought Leao from Milan the price will be very expensive and not impossible this transfer will broke the record as the most expensive player in the Manchester City history and the current expensive player at this team is belong to Jack Grealish that Manchester City have to spend 117 millions to bought him from Aston Villa

[Hirose UK]

The contract extension was agreed for the next 3 years and Bernando Silva still has a big chance of saving the title again for the next season with Manchester City without any worries about him losing the achievements he has achieved so far with Manchester City.
Hopefully in the future there will be no loans made with Barcelona because that will only worsen his image as a great player with a high nominal salary.

Bernando Silva role is not much different from Kevin De Bruyne, so it was not surprising when he received the news that his contract had been extended. Manchester City will definitely not let Bernando Silva go away despite his hugely influential contribution. Even if Barcelona has to make offer after offer, I'm sure it won't be able to reach another agreement. Manchester City's decision is the right one and I agree with this.

Yes that true and Manchester City has a target of becoming the ruler of the Premier League and also the UCL in the longer term so they will retain all the players with abilities that they feel can still be relied on.
So far for the Premier League only Manchester City has a very perfect list of players or you could say they are star players that most teams cannot have and in the future there is still a very big chance that they can bring back several trophies every season.

In contrast to Barcelona which may still have a little difficulty in forming a squad containing great players because until the player transfer window closes Barcelona still seems confused and there have been several failures in submitting bids.
If in the next transfer window Barcelona does not immediately look for several players who can fill the void then they will certainly be left even further behind by Real Madrid in the Spanish League.

175 million euros is the release clause in his contract so if Man City wants to get Leao, it must redeem that much because Milan and Leao have agreed to activate this.

Yeah if Man City want to keep pushing then they must be willing to spend big money but this rumor is still unclear because Leao still wants to stay at Milan.
Even if he leaves Leao Milan then this team will lose a talented striker like him, maybe you think he is ordinary for me Leao is quite important in Milan.

Man City are smart enough to not spend that much and try to go after other players on the same position. They are not the type of club right now to be "desperate" to find a game changing player for the team. They have a great squad so they don't need to have spend that much when they have everything they need. 175m is a lot and City if wants to spend that much then they would rather think about getting more players than getting a player for 175m. I don't think City will go much for that player at all.

You need players that can go well with each other and thats why Chelsea keeps on having bad matches and looks like another bad season if they dont change something quick.

I wouldn't say they wasted money per se, but it is true that they bought quite a lot of players and they prolly didn't even need some of them, sometimes i don't know what Todd is thinking, he just keeps spending. But on the other hand there's no denying the fact that they really acquired talented players and if they stick together at Stamford Bridge for many years, then sometime in the future we can say their investment did pay off.

I understand some of your concerns. People are excited about adding new players to Stamford Bridge, but Chelsea may be moving too fast. They spent 1 billion euros recently, but the results don't show they're in command, right? The news that Nkunku was hurt is heartbreaking. Why are we so dependent on one player? Pochettino must accomplish plenty. Nkunku isn't alone - the team has problems getting along. Are these investments long-term or just pricey tests?

I'm not sure if there is a player ready to replace Leao.

I also heard this news from several people but I'm a little unsure whether AC Milan will let this player go when AC Milan is more stable with Leao and I think the Milan coach realizes that losing Leao will be a problem in the future if they can't get an equal replacement. because I also haven't been able to find information if Leao will leave AC Milan who his replacement will be because it would be very bad if he lost this player without an equivalent replacement.
But let's see in the winter whether this transfer will happen and I want to guess that AC Milan will reject the offer even though the offer is very large unless the Milan coach already has an alternative replacement player.

[Ndabagi01]

Chelsea are doing a bad business,they are selling their players that have already flopped to teams.They knew that Karl Harvetz and Mason Mount are no longer useful,but they sold them to Arsenal and Manchester United respectively.They sold those players for very big money when they know the players cannot produce half of the amount they sold them for.

I don't believe that's why they were sold. When Pochettino arrived, he was eager to give everyone an opportunity while also not discouraging anyone from leaving the club if they so desired. Kai Havertz, Mason Mount, and more players received offers from other teams and accepted them. If I were in his position, I would not hesitate to let them leave. To build a new team that has already been broken, all your players must be committed, dedicated, and have the willingness of the players.

The only manager I have loved since Tuchel left is this resent manager, Pochetino,he believes in building players to the highest level,that is why he has brought some unknown names to the club this season,and if you look at how they are playing,you will definitely love it,despite the fact that they've not won much games this season,they are playing good football,and the injury to Nkunku has been the reason why they find it difficult to get goals in games.

I also believe Pochettino is a better manager than those who succeeded Tuchel. Building a broken team is no easy task, especially when new players are brought in. Even putting these qualities together and blending them will take a lot of effort and time. I won't say he's not on the right track, but he needs to get things moving faster since the club and fans need to see positive results quickly.
