⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[red4slash]

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.

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.

[Furious 7]

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.

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.

[Leviathan.007]

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.

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.

[alegotardo]

The Blues have indeed become a laughing stock this year after wasting more than 1 billion euros on players who have so far not lived up to the expected results.

The issue is that no progress has been made under Pochettino. He took charge of a team that finished 12th in the Premier League last season and that is where he is again under the Argentine manager.

Chelsea have also accumulated just 39 points in total in 2023 – the worst result for a team that has always been present in the Premier League. Boehly may have overseen the biggest spending spree ever, but the net result is a historically bad football team.

Money definitely doesn't buy everything.
Even Barcelona did better.

Goodnews for Chelsea fans

Today Christopher Nkunku has made his debut in Chelsea FC today against Newcastle United. I can say that the appearance of Nkunku was accompanied by luck. This is because Chelsea were on 1 goal down against Newcastle United when Nkunku entered the game in the second half.

All things being good Nkunku scored his penalty kick after Tripiers expensive defensive error gave Chelsea and equaliser that stretched the match to penalty shoot out. It was then that Trippier concluded his bad function by also missing PK. Will the return of Nkunku begin a new and desirable Chelsea?

Never try to believe any news that is spreaded without being confirmed by the reliable source. I meant osimhen has become one of hot topic but the story of him has ended with the decision of him to extend his contract. Another bad news was coming from chelse caused by this club was targeting him. Moving to the chelsea is not even making him feel interested in it. Osimhen is really loving to play in the club even longer than i though. This is another sad story for chelsea caused the blues has prepared to sell some players to get additional money to buy the nwe striker.
I must say chelsea has stupid manager combined with management. The club has obviously was ting 600 imllions for nothing then is willing to sell their loyal player like gallagher.

This stupid team will be staying in the same place much longer. The main problem was on the pochettino itself. He was bad enough to handle this club. As long as he can manage it properly and he can get the result like what xabi did in the bayern leverkusen.
Pochettino is not having capability to handle this club. He considerably failed to manage the blues. How much money is going to be wasted by him again? Enough is enough.

Poche shall out from the club, buying new players will not solve the problems.

Osimhen is a quality striker, there is no doubt about that. I don't think he is .

But in fact, Real Madrid did not make Osimhen their main target and still favored Mbappe as one of their desired targets.

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.

Haaland and Mbappe have different characteristics, but both have something in common, namely that they are goal-scoring machines in their respective team squads. I can't compare these two teams, the point is that they are currently the two brightest stars compared to many other players. talking about Haand and Mbappe, I'm not too sure if Madrid will bring them both. this is just an assumption, not an actual situation scenario. Mbappe, so far, is no stranger to being linked with Real Madrid. It is not impossible that the French star will join Real Madrid next summer after his contract with PSG ends. however, we also know that Madrid has issued a statement that what has been rumored or reported so far does not represent the truth. so, I think the status is still gray. in other words, we'll find out after this season ends. and my question is, if Mbappe joins Real Madrid next summer. is he willing to be a center forward? because for the wing position, Madrid has Vini Jr, whose position will not be replaced.

Well, now we talk about Osimhen. in fact, Osimhen was linked with Real Madrid, although maybe that was just a rumor. however, Osimhen deserves to be an option that suits Real Madrid's needs as a center forward. referring to what you said, specifically regarding Osimhen's transfer value. we know very well that Napoli want to let him go for a fairly fantastic transfer value. moreover, Madrid has spent quite a bit of money on just one player, namely Jude Bellingham. well, this season is the final season for Don Carlo, we don't yet know who will be his potential successor. plus, which player will Madrid need, Osimhen or Mbappe. and we will find out, after this competition ends and the summer transfer market opens.

With how well the two signings for the Arsenal Coach, Declan Rice and Kai Havertz are doing in the club, the owners of the club will not hesitate to throw their support behind any other player that the Arsenal coach identifies as needed to end their long season without the title. If Arsenal coach picks Victor Osimhen as his primary target, Arsenal could make sure to meet the fee required. Arsenal are also very good candidates to win the league this season, and are in the round of 16 0f the champions league, that can be attractive for Victor Osimhen. He can be attracted by the thought of coming to help Arsenal achieve their long time goal.

I agree if Osimhen may be interested to join Arsenal. This team already becomes a strong team that always compete for the title in each season. With some new players, Arsenal is very close with the title this season. As long as they can maintain good performance, their chance to win the EPL title is very opened. Arteta may try to negotiate for signing Osimhen, he needs more productive striker for their front line player. I saw Jesus can't perform very well this season, he isn't as productive as previous season. So it is not impossible that Arteta wants to sign a new striker.

Indeed. Arsenal meets the criteria of the dream team of Osimhen. Arsenal is competing for the EPL title, they are also playing in UCL knock-out phase. Arsenal has the chance to win the title of 2 popular competitions, specifically for EPL title. If Osimhen wants to join Arsenal, I believe Arsenal to be a more stronger team in the future.

Nkunku is a nice player and it is time for him to fully recover from the bad times he has now behind him hopefully. The guy has some great speed and is technically impressive and physically highly resistant. A very flexible striker, which is what Chelsea can need desperately. Chelsea is still only at 1.5 goals per game, which is not enough for a team like them. But it wasn't for a lack in quality that they sucked hard for so long now.

Todd Boehly is not going to learn from his mistakes and he is just making the same mistakes over and over. After everything that happened in the last season even after investing lots of money, Chelsea couldn't get a good result and they had to rebuild the team with a new coach fully and since Pochettino started working in CHeslea they made many changes and spent most of the money but even after spending all these money they spent for the team, Chelsea couldn't get good results with means money won't solve the problems in Chelsea.

Osimhen is linked with two big Premier League teams, these two teams are Chelsea and Arsenal. Arsenal want to improve their front line by bringing in new players in the winter transfer window and it is reported that Arteta has already bagged several striker names for them to recruit in the January transfer window. However, I think that Osimhen has a better chance of staying with Napoli for a long time because he just accepted the offer of a new contract extension that Napoli proposed last week.

If Chelsea and Arsenal recruit Osimhen, they will definitely have to pay a lot to Napoli in the transfer market. Chelsea also needs an attacker who is aggressive in scoring lots of goals and Osimhen is their target. We'll see whether Osimhen will stay with Napoli for a long time after accepting a new contract offer or whether he still chooses to leave. He is quite a valuable asset for Napoli and he will be a big star if his intention is to stay with Napoli.

Well, it will be interesting to see Todd Boehly in the January transfer window because he is known to be very generous in buying players at the highest prices. Chelsea have spent a lot of money in two transfer windows but they have not been able to get a complete turnaround in their performance in the premier league. They have carried out changes in coaches and major overhauls but there have been no satisfactory results so far. I think Todd Boehly should learn from Aston villa because Aston Villa is able to perform better than chelsea and they don't build a squad with big money.

So, they have to be able to improve their existing players and not have to look for new players to change everything. However, they also have to fix several weaknesses, such as looking for a new striker for the second half of this season. Maybe Chelsea can make a bigger offer to PSG if they really want to have high quality strikers like Mbappe and Osimhen and these players are not a cheap price if Chelsea wants to get them.

I understand if Osimhen would like to leave Napoli and go to Arsenal as that opens the door for him to the best league in the world and to play in the Champions League next season. I doubt that Chelsea will qualify for the Champions League. It could still be a great adventure for him and I guess he would earn more than he currently does at Napoli, but it would not be real progress for him. Chelsea is not one of those clubs that dominate European football anymore. But it would make sense if he misses the CL with Napoli and has to leave anyway if he wants to go to the Premier League, but would Arsenal really be interested in him?

Atleast they were able to win Newcastle today on penalities,a late goal by Mudryk brought them into the game as they drew Newcastle 1 :1 full time. I think  Chelsea are more serious when it comes to playing any other competition,or maybe Newcastle neglected the game and looked down on it since it's not the premier league.But Chelsea would take it more serious because they know they arent going to meet up with the teams in the top four because almost all of them are very good,and will be to surprising to me if  they should end the season qualifying,but I doubt if that is going to happen.

Chelsea need rebuilding,and they also need a good manager that can give them the kind of team spirit that will push them towards winning tittle.
