Chelsea are not willing to loan out Noni Madueke in the January transfer window but are prepared to listen to offers over £40m for Conor Gallagher in January.

This is very sadden to know that Chelsea are willing to sell out one of the best player this season in person of Gallagher seeing how they have been struggling with inconsistency in their performance this season we expect they retain their better players like Gallagher who have been of a positive influence to the team's few wins this season's in all games he had fixtures.  while they use the January transfer window to bring in new players that can fill in the loopholes and lapse the team is experiencing. Why sell out your best player instead of those not really doing fine in the team?

I think Chelsea would be making a great mistake should they let Gallagher leave cause as it stands many EPL clubs have shown interest in him come January as Chelsea chose to send him off.

Maybe what Chelsea need now is a midfielder that can control the game much better that the ones they have now,they need a striker also,who knows how to score goals,and can Atleast give them like 18-25 goals every season.Jackson is trying,but I don't think that is the Calibre of player they need,the type of player like Osimhen or Ivan Toney who knows how to struggle to get their own goals,and not someone who will  wait for ball to come to them before scoring.And for the aspect of loaning out Madueke,one of their best players in that team,I don't really see that happening because the coach knows that he is a quality player,and if he should sell him,he would find it difficult to replace him,so I don't see that deal materialising.

Osimhen is a quality striker, there is no doubt about that. I don't think he is the primary option for Real Madrid. Haaland would be a great option for Real, but my preference would be Mbappe. He has a structure that can play both as a forward and as a wing. Haaland plays as a complete finishing striker. While Mbappe makes it easier to intervene in the game, you cannot remove Haaland from his position.

If Osimhem is the striker that Real Madrid is targeting then in the previous transfer market Real Madrid will definitely make an offer to Napoli and I'm sure it will be difficult for Napoli to refuse that offer. But in fact, Real Madrid did not make Osimhen their main target and still favored Mbappe as one of their desired targets. Mbappe has much better advantages compared to Haaland because this typical player is much stronger and masters playing positions on the wing or as a central striker.

Haaland is only able to complete passes to score goals, but speaking of needs I believe Haaland and Mbappe are two figures that Real Madrid really needs. If both of them can be brought in in the next transfer market then I think the Real Madrid squad will be much better and will produce striker who are quite feared by any opponent.

Financially, Madrid is not constrained by recruiting any player they want, but what needs to be taken into account is the FFP rules. It makes sense that Perez wants to build the next volume of Los Galacticos by recruiting several star players at once, of course something has to be sacrificed to make this project a reality. Madrid only needs a number 9 figure, I think anyone can take that role, it doesn't have to be Mbappe, Halaand or Osimhen. Joselu can also be a sharp striker because he is supported by an even squad depth, but here Madrid is also considering several other rules such as the number of local, EU and non-EU players.

So far, even though Madrid doesn't have a pure striker, we can see that they are able to be consistent even though they sometimes have difficulty winning. Ancelotti is able to apply any strategy and experiment with various schemes in every match, this cannot be separated from the players he has who can occupy several positions when needed. That's what I think makes it easier for them to collect point by point, especially since Madrid mentality is very well maintained.

Pochettino will be doing another shit to the chelsea again. It seems like that chelsea was hiring the wrong coach. There's no progress being made by him. Chelsea is having some midfielders but the club was always using gallagher as starting line up.
This is the main problem of chelsea. I thought that the main problem was not in the player but it's in the coach. So far, gallagher has biggest contribution to the teams during several match. Chelsea is just doing another shitty thing again.
Look at so many failed transfers by chelsea like mudryk or even caicedo. Even gallagher has been performing even better than those stupid 100 millions players.

I don't know what plan that has been preparing by pochettino but it sounds another worst to come for chelsea. Gallagher is still contributing a lot and he was very often helping the club to intercept the ball.
The main problem was in the pochettino and it's not on gallagher. Pochettino is never aware if his stupid 100 million guy like enzo can't even do long shoot properly.
Another shitshow is going to happen with chelsea again.

Connor Gallagher was a great asset in the Crystal Palace squad last season when he was there. He used to make key plays, assists, and goals. What is surprising to me is that Connor Gallagher started almost all the matches this season for Chelsea. He is a key player in the squad. But surprisingly they are not willing to loan out Noni Madueke.

Chelsea are currently struggling in the Premier League. They need to make better decisions in the transfer market which I think they are not doing at the moment. Gallagher along with Moises Caicedo performed good in last Saturday's game as well. This news is shocking.

For the next season, Real Madrid will arrive Brazilian youth players Endrick have quit well performance with Fluminense and help his team won Brazilian Serie A for this season. I don't think with Real Madrid want to priority for signing Victor Osimhen current will have highest valuable above 150 million euro. Real Madrid main target is sign Kylian Mbappe with potential become free agent next season not make Madrid must spending much money for fees transfer than sign Victor Osimhen and need spent much money for getting deal agreement with Napoli.

I don't think Madrid face difficult with their striker in this season although Joselu not consistent scoring goals on every match, Rodrygo become good option to be false nine and his performance very quit well for scoring goals. If can't sign Mbappe or Osimhen next season I think Madrid will try with nine false scheme with Rodrygo as number 9 striker.

I would completely rule out the possibility that Osimhen ever plays for Real Madrid when at the same time Mbappe becomes a free agent. The point is that whatever Real Madrid would pay for Osimhen as a transfer fee, they can just pay it as salary to Mbappe and make him sign a long term contract. Osimhen isn't even close to Mbappe in my opinion and outstanding world class strikers are so rare. Haaland, Mbappe, and then who else? Mbappe will also be in the limelight because of his importance to the national team. There is really not a lot that would justify choosing Osimhen over Mbappe. Actually, there is nothing I believe in regards to quality as a football player.

Mbappe has much better advantages compared to Haaland because this typical player is much stronger and masters playing positions on the wing or as a central striker.

I was fuming some weeks back before the beginning of the season why Anceloti never bring in new striker to Real Madrid squad when the market transfer was closed because the only good signing I saw from the list was Bellingham but for tbe job of midfielder. I was not having it how he intend to manage that forward task with Vinicious and Rodrigo but subsequently, Bellingham fit there and he was okay for that place even when he wasn't bought for that role. With such result, I don't think they made move for Osimhen in the first place.

Haaland is only able to complete passes to score goals, but speaking of needs I believe Haaland and Mbappe are two figures that Real Madrid really needs. If both of them can be brought in in the next transfer market then I think the Real Madrid squad will be much better and will produce striker who are quite feared by any opponent.

What you think Real Madrid need but they already made the decision of not getting any new player right from beginning of the season, but now I think with the injury crisis in the club after Alana went on another injury, they have no choice but to look for more competent players because there 4 good men are out, Vinicious return next month is still under uncertainty.

Mbappe has much better advantages compared to Haaland because this typical player is much stronger and masters playing positions on the wing or as a central striker.

Any of these strikers will be good for Real Madrid because they are all natural strikers. And they are all young striker that will lift the attacks of the club but I think Real Madrid is focusing on younger strikers. Real Madrid signed these players at the following age Vinicius Junior (18), Eduardo Camavinga (18), Jude Bellingham (20) and Arda Güler (18). I read a news where it was reported that Real Madrid might not sign the French striker because he is now above the age of the players they are targeting. Victor Osimhen and Kylian Mbappé will be the best strikers for Real Madrid because they are aggressive and could make Real attack more dangerous.

Haaland is only able to complete passes to score goals, but speaking of needs I believe Haaland and Mbappe are two figures that Real Madrid really needs. If both of them can be brought in in the next transfer market then I think the Real Madrid squad will be much better and will produce striker who are quite feared by any opponent.

If I were Carlo Ancelotti my best choice would be Kylian Mbappé if Madrid has the money to spend. He is a better striker than the two options but he will be more expensive. He is less injury-prone and is a strong contender for next year's Ballon d'Or. But Victor Osimhen will be cheaper but he is injury prone. His extra-aggressive nature of play exposes him to injuries. He can take greater risks and is stronger than both Haaland and Mbappe.

[flipme]

Osimhen is a quality striker, there is no doubt about that. I don't think he is the primary option for Real Madrid. Haaland would be a great option for Real, but my preference would be Mbappe. He has a structure that can play both as a forward and as a wing. Haaland plays as a complete finishing striker. While Mbappe makes it easier to intervene in the game, you cannot remove Haaland from his position.

Haaland looks like a static striker. He's the target striker. Mbappe looks like a more mobile striker. In fact, he can play as a number 10 or a number 7. It's possible to use him in a broader tactical perspective. Of course, Haaland can also play in different areas, but then I think his efficiency decreases.

Actually when talking about midfielders for Chelsea I think there are some young players who are very good if maximized properly such as Enzo who we know that even though he is young but he has a pretty good vision and his performance can be very good if trained properly. besides that, there is the name Caicedo which we know what kind of performance he was at Brighton and indeed the price given by Chelsea to Brighton for Caicedo also I think it is worth it because of his previous performance but the problem is that some great names when at Chelsea seem to be ordinary.

In theory at this time Chelsea actually does not lack great players in their squad because for the attack line it is also actually quite qualified with the presence of Pamler, Sterling, Nkunku who can support Jackson but the problem is the difficulty of controlling and making these players as a unit that makes Chelsea's performance unable to develop even with great players.

I agree with this because looking at some of the players they brought in as you mentioned, they do have their own charm and speciality. and it should be noted that some of the players brought in by Chelsea previously had a pretty good track record such as Enzo even though there was more hype about the world cup about this player but he also actually played very well at Benfica before as well as the name Caicedo who even in the previous season he was ogled by a lot of clubs. Because of his performance with Brighton in the last few seasons and for Nkunku, he still hasn't contributed anything because he is hindered by his annoying injury but on the other hand now he has recovered even though he hasn't played officially, hopefully his performance can be the same or even better than before when he was at Leipzig.
What Chelsea need now is not another player but how to make their players more compact so that their erratic performance becomes better.

[Nheer]

Gallagher isn't the best player that Chelsea have in this season, there's no reason to keep Gallagher since they already have Palmer and Nkunku, so having Gallagher is just make Chelsea to spend additional money.

This should be a though decision for Chelsea, but they must to sell their players because they currently have a lot players at the moment.

Too many players in the team makes it difficult for the coach to pick his starters and with Nkunku and Lavia back in the squad it will be even more difficult for pochettino so it’s better to slim fit the squad down a little. Gallagher is the most improved player but not the best player in the team and i have noticed how he ghosts in matches either Caicedo or Enzo is absent but with the two present he is able to blend abd give more for the team. I don’t value Gallagher much because he lacks creativity and his style of play is just too plain. Other players will perform better in that position and create more chances for the team. Selling Gallagher would not be a bad idea, he would raise more money for the club.

Of all players i want Chelsea to keep Madueke and give him a chance to prove himself because i can see talent in him, talent that can develop in a few years. But i think the club will eventually loan him out.

Bringing back players for Chelsea could be a good thing or it could be a blunder for themselves again.
We know in the last few seasons since Todd took over Chelsea's power from Abramovich's hands he has poured a lot of money to overhaul almost all the players at Chelsea but in the end the results are still not much different and this I think must be minimized because after all with the current situation for Chelsea it could bring the player backfire for themselves.

Their attack pattern is very good especially when making a breakthrough from the wing where there are Sterling and Palmer who can be placed anywhere but the problem is the calmness and poor finishing of those who make this not very useful for Chelsea.
Right now instead of forcing to bring back players for them it would be better to maximize all the existing players and give them more motivation because they are a strong club and their players can also still fight well if there is finally harmony at the club.

I think it’s been proven unequivocally that Chelsea can not solve their problems in the transfer market. They have spent the GDP of a small country on players and they are stinking the place out once again this season.

It’s time for them to work with the players they have, it’s clear pissing money up the wall without a plan has not served them well. Pochettino needs to earn his corn.

[Mr.right85]

The start of the January transfer window is fast approaching, and after four months of the 2023-24 season, clubs will have a strong idea of where they need to recruit to bolster their chances ahead of the back end of the campaign.

There was are speculations around Arsenal as they want to bring in two midfielders over the next two windows. Arteta has made a new central midfielder one of his priority additions ahead of the January transfer window and several names have been linked. It’s believed that Jorginhno, Thomas Partey and Elneny will be leaving the club when their contracts expires next year.
I think Arsenal are looking at a “midfield overhaul” in the next few windows. I think before now, Arteta has been thinking on bolstering Arsenal's midfield given Thomas Partey's persistant fitness issues.

This should be a though decision for Chelsea, but they must to sell their players because they currently have a lot players at the moment.

If Gallagher isn’t the best player that Chelsea have this season who then is the best player? Gallagher has by far been the best player in the squad considering how much both Caicedo and Fernandez costs. He has been played mostly out of position this season, as lone DM, and also a Box to Box midfielder and in both he has excelled. He is one of the Chelsea players that have won more tackles, interceptions and more aerial duels in the premier league. He has Also had the most attempted and completed pass among his teammates and he leads the team with the number of chances created.

This are all his stats and they don’t lie, the only thing you won’t find there is goals and assists and that is not necessarily the work of central midfielders, Chelsea are just looking to selling him because they don’t have a choice as his contract expires 2025 and he is yet to sign a new long term one

Todd Boehly is still not satisfied, he will definitely spend more in this transfer market, it has also been reported that he is interested in several players who have high selling points while their management cannot improve Chelsea's performance, obviously this is just a waste, but they don't mind about that.

Pochettino has also spoken to the club board wanting some defenders, midfielders and strikers, he does not have the ability to develop existing players.

I don't know who the expensive players will be in this transfer window, I'm sure more than 2 players will be bought by Chelsea.

Even during last season, there was news about Osimhem leaving Napoli for other teams like Real Madrid or maybe even Liverpool but the fact about Osimhem in his team is he extended his offer recently and he is definitely should stay there or any team they want to hire Osimhem during winter or even the next season, they should pay a huge amount of money for him.

Todd Boehly prolly doesn't understand these things, he basically thinks all he has to do is spend money and then Chelsea become automatically successful, the investments that the club has made in the last three transfer windows have been massive, but despite that Chelsea are still struggling so much and they are 10th position in the EPL table.

I don't know if Pochettino can take Chelsea out of this situation, but the club can at least let him try. Pochettino needs to have a stronger influence in the dressing room, he also has to identify the players he needs if they are going to spend in January, when a manager selects a player he wants, it is because they see that the player can help his team play in the way he wants. Poch needs more freedom and Todd should give him space.
