⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Jody.Drummer]

Antony, Mount, onana, these players are so garbage.
There is no successful transfer happened in manchester united and i think that MU will be also doing another mistake. The club is willing to buy another inexperienced player again from the different league.

Erik Ten Hag is not trying as expected, because if he's eligible to handle Manchester United, we won't watch these players struggling and facing fatigue on the pitch. Mason Mount and André Onana is in their first season, they needs more time to adapt to the system and they came during the poor season of the club. But looking at Anthony, one of the big flops in Manchester United and was signed with gigantic figures from Ajax, only for the Red Devils to witnessed his poor stats in games. Anthony is not helping matters at the moment. Manchester United made wrong signings that have caused a tremendous declined in performances.

They have a poor history of transferring plyers and in recent seasons, we've seen them do that. And even they do it when it comes to appointing a coach, how many coaches have Manchester United brought in so far, and how many of them can be said to be "sucessful" (maybe we can start from Fergi's departure). Jose Mourinho is probably one of those who can be said to be successful, although his success is not that glamorous, but it can still be better than other coaches. I don't think the management is serious about managing this club.

[QueenVera]

I obviously agreed with it. Ten hag has been wasting so much money for nothing. Antony may be loaned to the another club but ten hag is still thinking about this. Ten hag has been making so many wrong transfers. Antony, Mount, onana, these players are so garbage.
There is no successful transfer happened in manchester united and i think that MU will be also doing another mistake. The club is willing to buy another inexperienced player again from the different league.

How can ten hag aware if the club needs fully experienced player who can properly play in the english premier league? No reason to call manchester united as a good team anymore as it does have garbage scouting team. Ten hag is always making so many blunders in the transfer.
Ten hag needs to do some evaluations before try to buy a new player. It's caused by MU has been wasting so much money for nothing. The price of antony and mount have been decreasing so hard.

Well I won't totally agree to that Erik Ten Hag most signings he brought might be underperforming bit they're not all totally garbage like you said, Martinez is good, Malacia is also good and Casemiro might not be in his best form this season but he helped united last season to secure the top 4 as well as winning a trophy, if you look at the players he bought this season not all are performing very badly, even Onana you called garbage has helped them in several matches, though he didn't adapt into the very early and needed a boost in his confidence level.

 I think most of these players are affect by the whole situation ongoing in the club this season and moreover the board didn't allow him get the initial players he wanted for the team due to lack of finance they claimed during the summer window, therefore he had to settle for and manage the second options, however the earlier they sell Antony the better for the team.

[Oluwa-btc]

There is a chance for Manchester United to lose some money because of their player Antony.
They hired Antony from Ajax in 2022 for 95 million Euros which is a huge amount of money, hope to see good performance from this player and now because of the being under investigation, he couldn't have any benefits for Ten Hag and his team and there is the chance for them to get him out of the team.

I think Anthony was a bad deal and a huge flop for Manchester United, the club already regrets the huge fee spent on acquiring Anthony. Erik Ten Hag will be kicking himself in the foot for his decision to spend big on Anthony’s acquisition, he should have invested that amount on two better players who are eager for recognition and winning games.

Anthony I would agree with you, I can only recall his first three games for Manchester United where he happened to score in them all. Also I can also recall the Europa League game with Barcelona where he scored the winning goal. Asides that, lads been useless and has been a proper gambler not a footballer.

Andrea Onana remains a good gaolie like it or not. He is not the cause of the goals conceded. What happened to the midfielder's and defender's? What's up with shielding this link up plays that lead to goal? Aren't they also garbage?!
Mason Mount I double doubt will have a great career with Manchester United. Sofyan Amrabat is another bingo that shouldn't see his loan deal extended.
Antonio Martial is also another good but Injury prone player who can't be successfully relied upon.

They have become really poor at selecting players or coaches. I think the last time they really made some sensible signings was at the time of Ferguson. They had really legends way back then and dominated in English league but right now everything has gotten out of order for them. There is also some issues with management and players which is also affecting them. It's just chaos at United.

Today I saw this news:

𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Diego Simeone signs new long term deal at Atlético Madrid until June 2027

source: https://www.instagram.com/p/Czb1WJ8oC0f/

 

Man, I keep asking myself: could it be that Atletico Madrid are doing as well as they currently are to the point that management isn't thinking about other coaches? because in my opinion I don't see atlético madrid fighting for the title this season, and it's true that they are not very far from other top teams like real madrid and barcela, but even so looking at how atlético madrid has been in the last few years, I don't think things will be any different for them in the league this season. The most likely that Atletico will achieve it will be a place in European competitions.

And speaking of European competitions, they are at the top of the table in their group in the European Champions League, but the difference in points with second place is only 1 point. They haven't lost in any game in the European Champions League, with 2 draws and 2 wins, they are doing well so far. But even so, this is still a group stage, and there is still no guaranteed passage to the next stage, so I don't understand why the management extended his contract for many more years? It's something difficult to understand, in any case, he will probably retire at Atlético Madrid, because I highly doubt he will leave Atletico after his contract ends.

Not a surprising one as Simeone has been giving him the results that Atletico board wants. I feel Atletico target isn't is to win LaLiga everytime. They are the patient ones unlike most of the clubs who gets impatient and try to move to a change. Yeah Simeone is an unique manager with his tactics and all  but so far he has delivered Atletico from time to time. Atletico board trusts him and Simeone also feels the same way with Atletico so I think this will go on for long. For others this might be wierd but Atletico's board has huge confidence in Simeone.

Reportedly Mikel Arteta plans to sell four of his players so he can get additional funds to bring in Ivan Toney from Brentford. So far there is still no clear information regarding the names of the players who will be on the sales list and I think this could be a good thing or a bad thing. To be more precise, Mikel Arteta seems to be betting on getting Ivan Toney, who obviously hasn't played for Brentford this season due to a gambling problem which resulted in him being banned from playing.

On the other hand, if Arsenal no longer needed the services of some of its players then that would be a good thing financially and could also save the players' previous salary budget. I'm quite curious about how much Brentford wants so that Mikel Arteta has to sell his players.

I'm not sure of the players but I have players up in my head who I think would be leaving during the January Transfer Window. They're viz;

Ramsdale Aaron
Thomas Partey
And Lastly, The Portuguese International defender Cedric.

Aaron Ramsdale have been rumoured to leave gunner's if he'll want.to make it to the Euro's next year to be hosted by the Germans. I'm pretty sure he'll want that, since he has been dumped immediately after the arrival of the Spardinad David Raya.

Thomas Partey has been linked to Saudi Arabia, I feel like he had taken a step forward until Mikel Arteta had a talk with him Nicodemusly.
He will fetch the gunner's good money if he leaves for any of the Saudi Arabian Clubs.

Cedric hasn't been so Important of Arsenal this season, he has been a bench warmer and should leave for whatever offer that comes innit. They have to free up space for others.
Ivan Toney! That'll be a massive signature, Since Gabriel Jesus hasn't been consistent, I understand he had been Injured and away for a while.

Wait a minute, I think it makes sense about the players you mentioned and maybe these three players are strong candidates in the player sales plans in January. It has often been rumored that Ramsdale will leave the Gunners and this has happened since Ramsdale failed to maintain his competition with David Raya as the main goalkeeper.

Then Thomas Partey, who is usually appointed as a defensive midfielder, is now starting to be under threat since the arrival of Declan Rice and it is possible that he will also leave Arsenal and join one of the Saudi leagues to make more money considering that he is already 30 years old.

Apart from that, Cedric is a player who very rarely gets playing minutes and he has never even been used as a substitute, maybe that's why for no apparent reason he will be included in the list of players to be sold later. Well, there's one more person left and it might be quite a long speculation and it looks like we have to follow developments in the news first to confirm what happens next.

[Wiwo]

I actually don't think anybody has any idea about what is going to happen. Because I think two things can happen. Real Madrid is actually in some kind of deal with Mbappé. And they are trying to avoid drama just like you said.  But at the same time, Real Madrid might actually not have approached him at all. But I think that is hard to believe. Because Mbappé is a player, whom they have been looking for, for a long time. So I would probably also say that they are doing this so that they can avoid the drama.

The quest for a possible replacement for Benzema's departure from Real Madrid has been on for a while now and to some extent,  s me top players who are in Bezema's class are the club's target since what they need right now is the right replacement for the gap that the player departure have created to the club team formation and if they can secure Mbappe into the club it will be a big win for that to be able to have a possible replacement that have draw the club backwards for a while now.

So if Real Madrid can successfully sign the deal with the player which has been back and forth for that to happen for a while now it will be a great milestone for the club and how they are able to make some positive records for this season and even beyond this season with that level of player formation in their frontline.

I believe Real Madrid still put Mbappe in their target list, but they are reluctant to pay the amount of money that PSG demand, because Madrid are desperate for a new world class striker as the replacement for Benzema. PSG use this Madrid's desperation to get the fee as high as possible, PSG also know that they need to sell Mbappe soon before he become free agent that makes PSG experience a big loss of money.

I dont think Jamal Musiala can be an alternative option over Kylian Mbappé because they have different profile between them.

Yes, you are right that Jamal Musiala is not the best option for Real Madrid to replace Kylian Mbappé. Musiala is a deep-place midfielder, Kylian Mbappé is a perfect striker, and Real Madrid needs a solid striker in the midfield. Already, Jude Bellingham has taken over and left no stone unturned, but Real Madrid's strike space is empty for a perfect striker, and I think Kylian Mbappé will do his best. So, Real Madrid should not make a mistake by signing Jamal Musiala, but should try to complete the transfer as soon as possible by adding Kylian Mbappé to their signing list.

If Mbappe is keen on winning Ballon d'Or then moving to Real Madrid should be his ultimate target. Signing outstanding players will elevates the performance of the team. Real Madrid president, Florentino Pérez will always sights good results for his club, he's one step ahead to achieving great heights. Kylian Mbappé have reach greater heights in Paris Saint-Germain and he's not holding back from living in his dream. He's s definitely the most important player in France, why? Because he has earned his respect and also passed through the necessary tests.

This is only a story to distract the attention of other great teams, particularly those in La Liga, from expecting this major player to join Real Madrid next season. So many people have heard about and followed up on the acquisition of this excellent player that the narrative cannot simply change now without a very solid reason. They are, as you have mentioned, attempting to minimise major drama surrounding his acquisition. Mbappe will leave the club at the end of the season and will almost certainly join Real Madrid the following season.

I believe Mbappe will make his way out of PSG soon because his career playing for them since after the world cup has only been a test of his consistency.
A better opportunity and bigger boots in lead strike role is what he's dreaming of and I think he would connect well with Luca Modric, Bellingham and Vini jnr. I feel so because when experience meets pace, the defenders would become more attack minded and thus producing results in every match or tournament without even the strikers scoring much in every match.

Antony, Mount, onana, these players are so garbage.
There is no successful transfer happened in manchester united and i think that MU will be also doing another mistake. The club is willing to buy another inexperienced player again from the different league.

They have a poor history of transferring plyers and in recent seasons, we've seen them do that. And even they do it when it comes to appointing a coach, how many coaches have Manchester United brought in so far, and how many of them can be said to be "sucessful" (maybe we can start from Fergi's departure). Jose Mourinho is probably one of those who can be said to be successful, although his success is not that glamorous, but it can still be better than other coaches. I don't think the management is serious about managing this club.

Manchester United's issue You will not learn the true reason for their bad performance.  Erik Tan came to the club in his first season and performed very well. He bought Onana and Antony because he knew they were very good and talented. He brought them to the club because he coached them in ajax and he thought they could perform in the Premier League but they failed him. I didn't watch Onana's performance in ajax but I saw his effort in Inter Milan in the Champions League final and he tracked well Mount is already weak in Chelsea because he is not as good as he was when Thomas Tuchel was coaching them.

I think man u need to get some key players in the next transfer window because all the players Erik tan hag buy are not benefiting the club and they need to find another subjection in the club so that they can perform well. I was very surprised in there performance yesterday because I saw they were playing well and leading with 2-0 and I thought they would win the match against Copenhagen but they failed but I think that is because of the red card they gave Rushford that is why they failed. Manchester United have two matches remaining that they must win in order to advance to the next round of the Champions League competition, They need to prepare extremely well for their remaining matches because even if they overcome Galatasaray, I believe Bayern Munich will not make man u should win them expect they get lucky because bayern are in terrific form this season and have not lost a single game in the Champions Leagues.

You can't combine Mbappe and Musiala because they don't play the same role, and based on the ratings, they will choose Mbappe over Musiala. I'm sure Real Madrid are still interested in Mbappe because he said he won't renew his contract with PSG, and Real Madrid will have the opportunity to get him for free transfer, and that will be a chip for Madrid. If Mbappe transfers to Real Madrid, he will perform well can win many trophies, and he can win the Ballon D'or because PSG is not functioning well, and he needs a decent club where he can show off his talent. However, since Ancelotti is leaving the club, I doubt the next coach will want to bring him in, and I'm hearing rumors that Zidane will return to Real Madrid to coach if Ancelotti leaves.

Lewa was not old enough but his performance is even older than his age. Lewandowski's performance is dropping so hard. I can remember correctly when he was saying that if lewandowski was willing to surpass the performance from the previous season but the opposite thing is happening to him at this moment. He was missing some matches due to the injury and it was also affecting his performance to play even worst than the last season. No doubt if barcelona has been linked with several players at this moment.
Barcelona is only having 1 striker and that's lewandowski. The club doesn't have other pure striker at this moment. Xavi has planned to buy at least 1 more striker to be a back up for lewandowski but i just feel curious how barcelona can to do that without selling players.
La liga is still warning barcelona at this moment caused by it has no possibility to spend so much money for winter.

Agree or not Lewandoski is aged and there is only little I am expecting from him, at the moment he will be scoring goals but the numbers cannot be anywhere compared to Lewandoski five years ago. Barcelona should enjoy and treasure the numbers they are getting from him while they sort for a backup for the future.

Erik ten Hag is actually not a bad choice for Manchester United. You know how good they were last season. They made a really good progress in the Premier League by saving themselves from a poor condition. However they are back to a similar condition again now interestingly. I don't think there is anything changed in the management style of him.

There is something behind the scenes that is causing this team to have serious problems. The players have lost a lot of morale which is causing them to struggle against even smaller teams. I don't know if the board would decide to part ways with Erik ten Hag soon anyway.

That may be true but he has made a lot of mistakes since he came to the club, starting from his decision to go for players he worked with in the past and in the process disregarding their performance level currently. Some of these players were in their prime at Ajax and can only offer him less than their performance level back at Ajax. My suggestion is Ten Hag should look outside his scope, their are many more talented and young players out there seeking opportunity to play for big clubs and are ready to give everything they’ve got.

[baeva]

since Real Madrid said about the connection of bringing in Mbappe if Madrid did not have a close relationship, I was a little skeptical about this rumor because I really hoped that Madrid would bring in Mbappe, but in fact, Madrid seemed to have no interest in bringing in this player and on the one hand, Madrid really needed a striker player really quality because even though there are other rumors of getting Osimhen or Haaland it makes more sense to me.

In fact, it could just be Real Madrid's strategy to avoid drama like a few months ago, meaning they hope that the player's move will go very smoothly without drama and obstacles, because if the news of Mbappe's move to Real Madrid continues to be ignored while Mbappe has no intention of extending his contract at PSG will further strengthen speculation that Mbappe will move which will make the PSG owner dislike the player again.
However, if it is true that Mbappe does not move, the question is which club will be his next club? It's not a matter of no club wanting him but he is an expensive player, the salary the club has to prepare is very large so only rich clubs will be able to make him a player at that club and clubs with Arab owners have the opportunity to do so, Newcastle and Manchester City clubs which has large funds, maybe Chelsea, but of course Mbappe will also choose a club that can make his dream of winning many titles come true

I actually don't think anybody has any idea about what is going to happen. Because I think two things can happen. Real Madrid is actually in some kind of deal with Mbappé. And they are trying to avoid drama just like you said.  But at the same time, Real Madrid might actually not have approached him at all. But I think that is hard to believe. Because Mbappé is a player, whom they have been looking for, for a long time. So I would probably also say that they are doing this so that they can avoid the drama.

They've definitely been in touch before, a year ago, maybe after the deal fell through they discussed some details and are still sticking to them, that's why they don't show anything in public. One thing is clear, the player will move to them for free and that is the main condition after Mbappe extended his contract with PSG

In essence, Real Madrid has claimed its official statement. negotiations between player Kylian Mbappe and the giant Spanish club Madrid stated that it seemed that the widely circulated information was wrong. in fact, they claim negotiations have not yet taken place. In the latest report, Romano also reported that Ancelotti was reluctant to say anything about Mbappe. he didn't comment, which means I won't answer this about Mbappe.
Interesting, isn't it, the French star is even predicted to leave for Madrid as a free agent.

As you said, even I have said it from the start. that in reality, we never know what really happened. What is certain is that so far many newspapers have reported that Mbappe is very close to Madrid in the summer window. However, what you say could be the case.  that they are more likely to avoid drama and commotion in the future.
However, there are other scenarios that are also acceptable. We know that Madrid is currently dominated by young players and they have a wonderkid who might be played next summer, namely Endrick. thus, Madrid has a Brazilian trio in the front line. It could also be that Osimhen is in the right position for what the team needs.
Well, this will get even more interesting towards the end of this season. So, let's just wait.

So, Real Madrid should not make a mistake by signing Jamal Musiala, but should try to complete the transfer as soon as possible by adding Kylian Mbappé to their signing list.

Doesn't it depend on whatever goal Real Madrid is pursuing with a transfer of Musiala? I don't think they would sign Musiala instead of Mbappe. Real Madrid is probably trying to explore the market and see what high potentials there are for any position. Real Madrid will lose a couple of midfielders in the near future and while they are already set up quite well with younger players, I think that Musiala could still fit into the squad. However, I think there would be significant risk involved in a transfer for Musiala and not so much for Real Madrid. If they have him as a super talent sitting on the bench, it may not even cost them that much because they could sell him at a decent price if he can't make the breakthrough. But for Musiala it could mean tough times to leave Bayern Munich where he is fully integrated as a main player.

By the way, in case you didn't know, Mbappé's favourite positions is not Centre Forward. He prefers coming off the left wing. If Real Madrid sign him, it means Vinícius Jr's style of play might get impacted, perhaps this is one of the reasons Real Madrid don't really care that much about signing Mbappé like they did a couple of seasons back. What Real Madrid need is an actual centre forward and one that is top class, and it's hard to come by such.

Sometimes it's not about how older or younger, physical strength matters too, and I think C Ronaldo is more built physically and he's more ambitious and trains harder than Lewandowski and I feel Lewandowski might not last up to 40 like you said, ~

True. That's what I exactly explained on my post above. I said Lewandowski is actually younger than Ronaldo. Ideally, Lewandowski can have better fitness and perform better than Ronaldo. But it is not, Ronaldo is better although he is already 38 years old. It means the age isn't a single factor to determine how good a player. Sure, Ronaldo always trained harder than average players and he really commits to keep his fitness. Lewandowski must follow what Ronaldo has done, if Lewandowski wants to have a better fitness.

But I feel Barcelona might not endure his injury crisis for too long before they start seeking for a replacement, except he gets back very fit and start helping them score immediately he recovers, cause his absence is really affecting the performance of  the club,

Barcelona signed Felix, I think it is one of the way to prevent the crisis of striker. Unfortunately, it seems Felix is still not in the level of Lewandowski, he is not enough to replace the role of Lewandowski. So, I also guess that Barcelona will try to sign a new striker again. They need a striker with the same level as Lewandowski.

Speaking of Felix, he is only on loan for a year and there is no permanent option in the current loan because of the condition of Barcelona which is still struggling financially and Felix's current high price so that for next season's striker if Lewa finally leaves, Barcelona will indirectly experience a crisis because Felix will also definitely return to Atletico because his loan period expires, although maybe they will start trying to consider something else for this player if it is proven that he is still very good in Barcelona's attack.
