⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[uchegod-21]

Both of Manchester teams, Arsenal and Liverpool are said to be interested in Rodrygo now. All of these teams have enough money to afford him of course. However when it comes to which one of them Rodrygo would prefer I would say Manchester City.    It can really be the best place for him to maintain his development strongly.

He can play as a winger and centre-forward both. As there is Haaland in the middle Rodrygo would be preferred on the wing. Let's say Manchester City didn't want to sign him then the second best option would be Liverpool to be successful. I wouldn't prefer Manchester United or Arsenal if I were him.

Well, you stated your opinion nicely and it is fair as well but if I were to be Rodrygo, I will choose Arsenal over Manchester city. In Manchester city currently, there is too much competition and if Rodrygo slightly slides off form, he will definitely catch the bench. Think of it, there's;
Haaland;
Avares;
Grealish,
Doku;
Foden;
Bernardo and more.
All hot and willing to take any place at the front. This cannot be said about Arsenal where the only indisputable position is that of Saka. Rodrygo will easily fit in to Arsenal and make waves. Moreso, Arsenal of yesterday is not Arsenal of today.

Not only did they bring in Mbappe and Davies in the summer but Real Madrid is also interested in signing Alexander Arnold from Liverpool. As is known, the player's contract will end next year or more precisely in June 2025, so Real Madrid is monitoring the development of the English player more closely. Apart from that, there is no other reason for Alexander Arnold to stay at Anfield if coach Jurgen Klopp leaves next season, so this further strengthens his move to another club.

I think it would be a brilliant career advancement for Alexander Arnold if he joined Real Madrid because he could win another title after spending seasons with Liverpool. He must also be aware that Liverpool will not be as strong as before if Jurgen Klopp leaves him, so he must immediately consider it if an offer from Real Madrid comes. On the other hand, he is also very suitable as Dani Carvajal's successor for the RB position and it would be very pleasing for Los Blancos fans if their favorite team also managed to sign Alexander Arnold.

I really hope that TAA is only stick with Liverpool, he started his football career in Liverpool and haven't yet join other team, if he retire in Liverpool, he will break a remarkable story as the most loyal player.

But I think there's a good chance he will move to Real Madrid, he knows Salah and Klopp will leave Liverpool, Diaz also has interest to join other team, this mean the next season Liverpool will not be like Liverpool that he knew.

Firstl, almost all of major big clubs in the premier league has been showing their interest to get rodrygo from real madrid considering the fact that if rodrygo is a successful talent but the price to get him will not cheap. Real madrid put 100 millions as his price tag will force EPL clubs to spend a lot of money. I knew that if the only big premier leagues club who was capable in buying him caused by 100 millions was not small amounts of money considering the fact that if the ePL big clubs can also sell some players to acquire rodrygo from real madrid BUT, there is a very important thing that needs to be noticed here.

Real madrid is also keen in acquiring TAA.

Liverpool can use TAA was a way to lure madrid since madrid needs a good right back and TAA can also become alternative solution for real madrid to get a good right back. I do support the decision to recruit TAA from liverpool rather than spend money raised from selling rodrygo to buy a new RB.
The only problem whether real madrid will be feeling satisfied with such offer cosidering the fact that if rodrygo is one of best attackers this time. He is also capable to play as winger and striker which is also giving a complete package for the club.

It cannot be denied that indeed until now the Manchester United players are one of the clubs that has a big name and not only now because it has happened from several previous seasons but in the end we also cannot eliminate the fact that Manchester United is also one of the buriers of the performance of star players because when they are at Manchester United with the conditions that occur in Internal, the talent that should be well honed loses momentum and ends in failure.

We can see some players who are examples such as Casemiro or even Cristiano who have not been able to be maximized properly or some young players such as Van De Beek whose performance was destroyed and not even heard of until now as well as some wonderkids who were initially predicted to be great players such as Sancho, Greenwood (although his popularity declined due to his own actions) and a series of other names that failed at Manchester United because there are still a lot of talents buried when wearing Manchester United uniforms.
Ten Hag always does it his way even the ones he doesn't like but indeed at this time as long as it is still positive it doesn't really matter, it's just that if in the end the inconsistency returns like at the start of the season it means there are problems that are still very risky and cannot be resolved by Manchester United.

When I saw Ronaldo coming back to Manchester United though I had chills but at a point I was like why?? Will he still be effective?. It proved his return wasn’t met well by the coach Ten Hag because of the negative imapct it had in the club. The club had some needs and when Ronaldo came back they obviously forgot what they needed and made sure football is played all around Ronaldo and that reAl brought in a sense of pride for the Balon D’Or winner.

 Erik Ten Hag took over and showed he’s in charge and that was what was needed at that time. The iron hands of the boss was what the team needed. Though we can’t blame Ronaldo for the bad performance of the team as he proved to be helpful on so many occasions even before the arrival of Ten Hag. His interview was the line drawer for him and that made Hag lose hope and every confidence and trust in him and if you look at the interview and what’s going on now, then you’ll see some sort of truth in what he spoke about then.

 Well though the board to an extent were wrong in bringing him back and trying to build the team around him rather they would have brought him back amd make him come in from the bench that way it would have been more honorable and get match winning victory than the humiliation he was put through. Ronaldo is still an integral part of the club’s success and history and he’s still loyal to the cluv and vice versa though things went wrong but I think it could have been better if a different approach was followed.

To be honest, if Mbappé is part of Madrid, it is something I don't like at all, and I hope that instead of bringing him triumphs he doesn't bring mistakes to Madrid, because in part things with this team have been very controversial, personally. I would have preferred Haaland in Madrid that Mbappé, with respect to the Liverpool boy, would like him to stay in Liverpool too, it is a shame that Klopp has to leave, I was reading some articles where they were trying to retain him and at least sign for one more season, if Salah leaves, Luis Diaz leaves, that team will fade away, and it is a shame because for the UCL it will not be the same as it is now, of course without Klopp it is a little harder.

Of all these transfer windows, some teams will strengthen even more, and others will fade away, so these types of things are what we should see, there may be very good teams in the next UCL, but not with the same intensity.

This will become a nightmare for Liverpool if it really happens. Klopp, who will end his tenure as coach at Liverpool, has the opportunity to leave the club with fond memories, winning the EPL and potentially winning the UEL.  However, losing an important player will make Liverpool's position even more difficult, which the genius coach for the Reds has definitely left behind. But, after Klopp left and the rumors about Salah is come true, I was worried about their condition, just like after Rafa Benitez's time at Liverpool ended, it took quite a long time for Liverpool to find the right coach and recover in EPL performance.

Coming summer transfer window is going to be one of the hottest with things are heating up from now many coaches and big players are going to take their positions for the future as Jürgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool surely we are going to have some changes here as well even now we have the latest update about Saudi League is going to spend nothing in coming transfer window due to internal problems, but things are still going to be challenging.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is just 25 years old, and he is going to have good career ahead of him even he has never been out of the Liverpool after joining them in 2004 but now it's good time to have his spot in Real Madrid which is going to have some changes in coming season as well with Mbappé is also coming, so things are looking interesting, but we have to wait for the official confirmation about this all can Liverpool go for this transfer or just media rumours are working around.

I agree. After Klopp leaves Liverpool, it is going to be really hard for them to actually continue performing well unless they are able to bring in a really good coach. Preferably Zidane or Alonso. But I understand Zidane is out of the equation. Maybe Jose Mourinho? Not many great coaches are available at this moment. And we all know what has been happening with Manchester United. Liverpool surely does not want to turn out to be like them.

But even if they are able to get a good coach, they will still have to go through a period when they will not be able to perform that good. And of course, the team will also go through a hard time trying to adapt

One thing that is worrying is that when Jurgen Klopp leaves, the players who are currently mainstays in the team will also follow in his footsteps, if that happens then they will have to start from the bottom again. However, this depends on the coach they will appoint to replace Jurgen Klopp, because if the coach can maintain the current players that will be good, but usually the new coach will bring quite significant changes too, that will be a question mark about how Liverpool will continue. in next season.

They must find a coach who can give them confidence. Now that there are many names of quality coaches, they must be able to consider very well who they will appoint. I wouldn't expect much, because when a new coach comes in, he will need time to study the strengths of the players he has, and that process will probably be quite long. But I hope he can adapt very quickly so that he doesn't stay in a not-so-good performance for too long. Apart from all that, let's look at their journey in their final season with Jurgen Klopp.

[Captain Corporate]

I mean not like Klopp will always use the same players if he stays neither, people acting as if Salah leaving is a big huge deal, Salah is already 30+ years old, he can play a few more seasons of good football that's true, but they knew that they would have to replace him eventually. Saying Diaz leaves or Arnold leaves or this or that, remember 5-6 years ago when Liverpool was great, most of those players weren't even there, we had Mane and Firmino and Robertson and Henderson etc etc, where are they now? Thats why I think its not really a big deal. Klopp leaving is the only one that matters, because you can sell every single player, and use that to get another 25 brand new players and he would be still good with them.

If you are referring to competing in very strict competitions to get into the main squad, which is not only being limited to the city and that's not fair since you were not also mentioning how strict the competitions in the competitors of manchester city club as well. You'll find it in another club too and just be neutral. It makes no sense if you only mention City and not other clubs such as Arsenal or Liverpool, the two which face fierce competition along with city.

Liverpool wants Rodrygo to be a backup when Salah leaves at the end of the season, whereas Arsenal is struggling with its attackers then looking for an option to be recruited. If you are referring to it as the main issue that will prevent Rodrygo from joining City, what about Chelsea?Rodry can go to the chelsea and he will get a place to play in the main squad. 
Chelsea has also expressed interest in Rodrygo, despite the fact that the club lacks good attacking players. Almost all attackers consistently performed bottle jobs in any games that made all of fans were baffling to the club. That's enough to explain why Chelsea really needs Rodrygo this season caused by so many poor attackers in chelsea's line up.

I really hope that TAA is only stick with Liverpool, he started his football career in Liverpool and haven't yet join other team, if he retire in Liverpool, he will break a remarkable story as the most loyal player.

But I think there's a good chance he will move to Real Madrid, he knows Salah and Klopp will leave Liverpool, Diaz also has interest to join other team, this mean the next season Liverpool will not be like Liverpool that he knew.

Klopp's departure will of course have a big impact on the player's desires, because not all players are ready to start a new chapter with a new coach to rebuild the Liverpool team and sometimes for other reasons the player wants to explore new adventures, I think it is very likely for reasons Klopp's decision to leave at the end of the season.

Alexander Arnold is still 25 years old and his quality is quite good so I think it is very natural that there will be lots of offers from top teams for him, and I doubt that he will be able to play until he retires with Liverpool, as I said earlier there will be a lot of changes in the team Liverpool due to the departure of Klopp and Alexander Arnold will be one of them with a tempting offer as a top team.

Close rumor, Liverpool is the only one team linked for signing Rodrygo for the next season behind reach agreement deal between Real Madrid and Mbappe will make not secure yet with Rodrygo as regular position. I think Madrid still not too early for selling Rodrygo and he still has one place as regular position on right winger side, so far Carlo Ancelotti more playing him as regular players and its difficult for Rodrygo will accept Liverpool offering.
Actually Rodrygo is the multi position players and he can plays well as left, right and central forward as false nine under Carlo Acelotti tactician when loss with real central forward players. Madrid success growing up Rodrygo become the best players and he still most respect stays until his contract over.

[KTChampions]

It's not about the head coaches at all in my opinion. It’s just that United at some point stopped progressing (not only as a team of players, but in general) and was simply overtaken by many competitors. In short, United are behind the times. To stay at the top you need to “run” faster than everyone else, but United were not ready for this, Ronaldo described this in sufficient detail in his interview with Morgan.
But this does not change the fact that Ten Hag does not correspond to the level of top clubs and should be sent back to Ajax (along with his "miracle" acquisitions) 

If Erik Ten Hag gets to qualify Manchester United fir the Champions League Competition and wins the FA Cup Competition, then all of these flaggings would definitely come to an end.
Lol, I believe you must be amongst those who thinks Gareth Southgate would also be a good idea of replacement for Erik Ten Hag. I won't be fazed.

At least we all know he'll do well if he goes back to Ajax. But Gareth Southgate to Manchester United when he is not even a good coach for England National Team.
Manchester United should rather bring back Michael Carrick to manage the club rather than Southgate. In conclusion, the so called Jim Radcliffe and his team are completely horse shit.
I wonder who Sir Alex Ferguson would recommend for the club.

Are you sure about this? I still remember that United should be a top club and fight not for a ticket to the Champions League, but for the Premier League title (a ticket to the Champions League should not be a question at all). If United's aspirations are so low that a Champions League ticket is enough, then even Ten Hag can perform the task from time to time. By the way, what for? After all, United can't even beat Copenhagen and Galatasaray there  

[fullhdpixel]

Against Liverpool in the FA quarter-finals is the best game I have seen since Ten Hag has coached Manchester United, if Manchester United can maintain the same scheme of play as when they beat Liverpool of course the FA Cup can be theirs later, but the problem now is how Ten Hag can maintain that style of play when facing Conventry City ?
Conventry City is indeed a Premier League 2nd Division club and on paper of course Manchester United is the underdog, but I think it is not easy for Manchester United to beat Conventry City if Manchester United still often make mistakes in every match.

Manchester United don't have good squad depth this season to compete in the top 4 of the Premier League and that's why they are still outside the top 4 at the moment and so far I think the change of owner Manchester hasn't given much change to their squad this season, now maybe ending the season as high as possible in the league will be better for Manchester United so next season they have many opportunities to improve the squad to be even better.

There is no doubt this was one of the best win for the Manchester United and Ten Hag but with this win things are surely going to be had good positive change for this we need consistency and depth from them which was never been into this squad as we have Ten Hag as coach of the Manchester United but if they are able to keep things at this level then surely we can expect good results near the end of this season and Ten Hag is also going to have another season here at the Manchester United now they are going to face Coventry City and then most chances they will have Manchester derby in final.

Even they are having many quality players, but the players are lack of chemistry which are needed at the top level for the better results and also Ten Hag is also having wired issues which are preventing him from having good squad depth which are surely not near them in this all season so now can they do anything special in last few weeks or things will be again unpredictable.

Not only Liverpool is vying for Rodrigo, Manchester United, Arsenal and City are also interested in him. I think that the difficulty of this transfer will also lie in the fact that Real wants to get at least 100 million for Rodrigo, and I’m not sure that any of these clubs, including Liverpool, will be ready to pay that kind of money. In addition, if you believe Ancelotti, Real does not want to sell Rodrigo, but you are right, if Mbappe comes to the team, then Rodrigo may have problems with playing time.

[coinlocket$]

Origi failed at Milan.

When the player who comes from Liverpool becomes available again he will be shown to the door and will be sold again or loaned out again.
They hoped to had a top player but it only proved to be a flop, an expensive one.

Jesus Christ! Cristiano Ronaldo had negative impact's? Lol. But mind you, Ronaldo returned back to Manchester United before Erik Ten Hag was appointed head coach.
He was brought in during the second or third season of Ole Gunner Solskjaer and it was clear evidence that Ole Gunner Solskjaer was tactically poor and not good enough. What manager are you when you cannot manage the big players and mix them up with the yougins?

He shouldn't have returned in the first place, but that was done all because Sir Alex Ferguson called him directly. Yeah, Ronaldo gave Manchester United winners against Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham United scoring Hat tricks against these clubs.

My issue with him was failing to report to the Pre season games and fixtures, that was what got Erik Ten Hag pissed. The season started and he dropped out Ronaldo on the bench for so long. Nothing wrong with him returning, these past legends and current players just fought hard to see him leave. Both Roy Keane and Rio Ferdinand backed him. Also mosteof tjese young lads weren't creative enough.

Rodrygo is currently under a long-term contract with Real Madrid until 2028, making it unlikely that he will be sold.
However, if Liverpool were to make a fantastic offer, Madrid may consider letting him go.
If Liverpool management insists on signing Rodrygo, they will release Mo Salah in the transfer market to get money. IMO
Nonetheless, Liverpool has other player options as a successor to Mohamed Salah, such as Moussa Diaby (Aston Villa) or Bukayo Saka (Arsenal).

If you look at how many players are currently being mentioned with Real Madrid for a transfer, I think it is entirely possible that Rodrigo will be sold. In addition to Davis from Bayern, Mbappe will also most likely move to Madrid. Real has to make the change, the team is still relatively old in its key positions. Barca is also going through a similar phase of change and therefore it would make sense for Real to have a bigger buying party this next season.
