⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Simone Inzaghi is having a perfect performance in Inter Milan and this made the fans happy so far. Also, Inter Milan wants to have in this coach on the team for a long time because of the performance they have seen so far from Simone Inzaghi in both Serie A and the Champions League, Inter Milan is aiming for both the title of Champions League and the Serie A title.

I won't say Simone Inzaghi has a perfect career with Inter Milan because he can't win UCL yet. However, he surely experienced great career, he already won some domestic trophies with Inter Milan. So far, Simone Inzaghi won 6 trophies with Inter Milan. 1 Serie A trophy, 2 Italian Cup trophies, and 3 Italian Super Cup trophies. It is quite impressive, he always won trophy in each season.

But now it seems Mcnahter United wants to hire Simone Inzaghi for their teams while I don't think if Simone Inzaghi will ever leave Inter Milan for a team like Manchester United considering the situation they have in the Premier League. Maybe they should find another coach to fill the place of Ten Hag in this team.

Well, he has a contract with Inter Milan until June 30, 2027. It means he will stay in Inter Milan for the next 3 years. Since he looks happy with Inter Milan, I don't see a chance that he will consider to leave Inter Milan. He is also an Italian coach, he should feel more comfortable to stay in Italian league (Serie A). Moreover, all his career history as a manager is in Italia, this is also this first time that he manages one of the top team in Italia (Inter Milan). I personally think that he will obey his contract. Even he wants to move to another league, it seems it will happen after his contract with Inter Milan is over in 2027. So, it is unlikely he will manage Man United. It is also not a better team than Inter Milan. Inter Milan is much a better team if we compare with Man United.

De Zerbi didn't resigned from Brighton because of the sale of players that Brighton did in the past. Brighton has always been a selling club even before De Zerbi was appointed. De Zerbi saw himself a an improved manager who shouldn't be managing a mid table club, whose ambition was just to survive the premier League without the ambition of becoming a power house in the premier League. De Zerbi was heavily linked with the move to Chelsea and because of this he refused to extend his stay at Brighton, but he was eventually betrayed by the Chelsea management when Enzo Maresca came into the picture. With De Zerbi already informed Brighton that he won't stay further, it was difficult for him to take back the Brighton job when Chelsea snubbed him for Maresca, that was why he went to Marseille. It was because of the Chelsea job that made him resigned his job at Brighton not necessarily that Brighton were selling off their best talents.

I totally agree with you on the reason De Zerbi left Brighton. Right from the start, I have also observed and rated him as a manager with high ambitions. Seeing how much he wanted to be known in European football so bad and his desire to make history with Brighton, it’s unfortunate for De Zerbi that the chance to do that did not come and he didn’t make Chelsea also. De Zerbi is a good manager and very likable, but I don’t think Chelsea made a wrong decision in picking Enzo Maresca over him.

It's better for him to join Manchester United, Bruno is currently under perform, if he can consistent and always give a big contribution to Manchester United, he will be very popular.

Seeing Manchester United plays and the news surrounding them makes me believe it's a terrible decision for any player to go there because the situation is too chaotic. There are too many conflicting rumors about their internal situation, from ETH's lack of backing to players supporting him, etc. I dunno, unless the contract term is really good maybe it will be hard to attract a great player to join them, especially when they face competition from Man City, Madrid, etc.

Yes, problems have hit Manchester United one after another, some problems about the performance of the players and the failure of post-change development efforts by bringing in some new players and now Manchester United have to lose some players who are absent in several matches.
I don't know what Manchester United will be like in the future and I want to see how Ten Hag handles all these problems because the only person who can get Manchester United out of all these problems and return things to how they were before is Ten Hag as coach, I don't really believe in him but now he is the only one who has influence because he is the coach.
Some players previously could play very well, even those who were not previously Manchester United players could have qualified skills with their old teams, but now with Manchester United there has been no consistent and truly directed game.
These are all complicated problems and it looks like this season will be nightmare for Manchester United if everything fails and there is no real improvement.

Ten Hag was boasting about his success in Manchester United at the press conference yesterday and i kind of was thinking what success he was talking about. He bragged about winning a trophy in every single season since he has been at Manchester United as their manager. He is assuring the fans that he is likely to win the EPL soon for the club without any doubt.

After hearing this on news I was wondering what the fans would be saying right now. Because i dont see Manchester United getting closer to the EPL trophy not even in the upcoming three seasons. Even if it's going to be possible it won't be on his watch. All the trophies he boasts about are some other European cups. If he thinks that's enough trophies that would guarantee him the EPL trophy then he must be really joking.

He had problems not only with Sancho but also with Ronaldo and they sent the player off the team. We can see that the Erik Ten Hag selection was very wrong with his slowly decreasing success graph. Erik Ten Hag has now had his chance and the team said they will send him off the team if the expected results are not achieved in the next 5 games. That's why the next 5 games are very important for Manchester. In my opinion, it is ridiculous that they gave him a chance for 5 games even after the defeat against Tottenham.

I have said it before that Erik Ten Hag has always favored Dutch players and the players he has worked with in his former club. Cristiano Ronaldo and Sancho were not one if these category of players so I was not surprised to see the animosity towards them. Look at both players after leaving Manchester United and compare their stats and you will see that Sancho is a good player but poor management messed things up at Manchester United and made the players look bad.

You are right Andres Iniesta Barcelona football legend has announced his retirement. At 40 years old it is understandable that he is stopping because football requires a lot of physical effort. Iniesta had amazing career like winning many awards including 9 Spanish league titles and 6 Spanish cups and 4 European Champions League titles. This makes him one of Barcelona greatest players. Iniesta achievements will be hard to beat and his commitment and skill and leadership set high standard for future Barcelona players.

Nothing can be maintained at that age and Andres Iniesta's physicality will definitely not be able to keep up with the young players in the same team or the opponents they will face in the competition.
Andres Iniesta has won everything at Barcelona and there have been many successes that have been achieved individually and at the club.
Deciding to retire at the age of 40 is right because even if he forces himself to continue playing his physicality will definitely not support it.

Andres Iniesta is one of the most needed players in his era and he has given many trophies to Barcelona during his glory days, that's why he is called a Barcelona legend.

I just became nostalgic only thinking about the name Iniesta. I remember playing FIFA 14 and I used to be a very big Barcelona fan back then. I would always play the manager career with Barcelona and always play Xavi Iniesta and Messi Neymar in the squad no matter what. Even in games, we did not want him to lose or miss out on a single match. But all that is history right now. Thinking that he is already 40 makes me feel like I am from the Stone Age. Thinking about prime Iniesta, Xavi hits differently. But the good thing is Iniesta has been able to play for a long time. Xavi is a coach and was the coach of Barcelona in the last season and meanwhile, Iniesta is still playing. Obviously, there is no doubt that he should retire too at this point. Obviously, we understand it is going to be very hard for him to actually maintain his body at this age

De Zerbi is a good manager and very likable, but I don’t think Chelsea made a wrong decision in picking Enzo Maresca over him.

De Zerbi was highly scouted by many top clubs when he was the head coach of Brighton, Brighton then were playing excellent football under him but was their any result? I don’t think so. Last season they were in the European competitions but didn’t get pass the round of 16 and this was one of the major reasons why De Zerbi hype then later get low and clubs like Chelsea didn’t later go for him. Just like you said I don’t think Chelsea actually made any mistake of not signing him because what was the point of even sacking Pochettino in the first place if they were going for someone like De Zerbi, he is currently doing an exceptional job at OM but I will say it might not have been like that at Chelsea because the expectations or the pressure of this two clubs are not the same.

I have said it before that Erik Ten Hag has always favored Dutch players and the players he has worked with in his former club. Cristiano Ronaldo and Sancho were not one if these category of players so I was not surprised to see the animosity towards them. Look at both players after leaving Manchester United and compare their stats and you will see that Sancho is a good player but poor management messed things up at Manchester United and made the players look bad.

Ten Hag is awful and if sacked is the right decision but I will still defend him against this players antics, first of all Ronaldo departure might have been started by him but Ronaldo case was against the club after the interview. Ronaldo is Manchester United legend which made him more powerful at the club than Ten Hag so the manager would have been able to get him out. As for Sancho I will say no body actually question his capabilities he is a great player but he wasn’t just having it at Manchester United. Can you tell me maybe it is only ten hag that actually managed him at Manchester United and never did he break through into the first team with any of this managers.

But what is interesting about this dismissal is that even though De Rossi was fired, the club owner said that the door would always be open to De Rossi if he wanted to return to Roma and considered that he was still capable of coaching. This is a little confusing whether this is only used as a temporary option so that De Rossi has more mentality at a new club first before returning to Rome or this is just a goodbye. But I respect that even though they ended the partnership, De Rossi's relationship with Roma remains good.

That's something to consider because basically if things are like that you have to see what are the interests of those who are against DeRossi, because basically if the owner told him that, that makes you think that he had a problem with someone important in the club and gave that order, then I think that lends itself to things that affect the performance of the players and the team in general When I see that there are interests in the teams to do something like that, well, it's difficult, there's always some "black hand" with interests other than the well-being of the team. I hope that Roma does not become another Napoli.

Florian Wirtz is an incredibly talented player and already the biggest clubs in the world are after him. Wirtz played a leading role in Leverkusen's title last season and was named Bundesliga player of the year. Despite his young age, his contribution is obvious and his stats last season were immense. Arsenal are competing with Manchester City and Real Madrid in this transfer window, but they are one step ahead. This is because only Arsenal are ready to pay Wirtz's high transfer fee. However, it might be difficult for Wirtz not to accept a transfer offer from Real Madrid despite the transfer fee. Because Real Madrid is one of the biggest.

Wirtz is the level of player who can take a team to the top. Put Wirtz into Arsenal instead of Leverkusen last year, and Arsenal would have probably won the league. This is why they should try to get him no matter what. Could they pay 125 million during January? I doubt they could, the price feels like we are talking about something of a summer transfer and not January, usually teams do not spend this much money on winter break.

However, if they can spend enough money to get him, then I am sure they will get something in return as well. This kid is a superstar and he will be at some big club no matter what, I believe he will do amazingly and we are going to see him do very well, what we are missing here is the fact Arsenal already spent a lot of money to get here, and spending some more could be very tough.

I realize they are a rich club, and make a lot of money being this good everywhere, but they are not really doing fairness to their budget if they spend to get him too. Let's see what happens, I will be watching it closely, I would love to see him at Arsenal, not sure if they will be able to get him but it would be great if they could get him. He would fit perfectly with the system as well.

It’s obvious why all this teams will be after him, he is a very talented player and he will be missed when he eventually leaves Leverkusen but we all know he can’t stay at the club forever. Someday bigger clubs will come knocking and they did since last season so i think it’s time for him to continue his journey else where and earn a name for himself.

Every player has the dream of playing for Real Madrid someday so if Madrid should join the race it will be difficult for him not to accept a deal to join Madrid but i think it will be more better for him to Join Arsenal because Madrid already has quite alot of players and some are still yet to see enough playing time. Trophies will be won for sure but i still think he needs a little more time to consider joining Real Madrid. Arsenal is not bad but Manchester City will win him trophies definitely.

People who say Erik Ten Hag is awful do not have retentive memory because if they do, they'll not forget the great first season he had with Manchester United. Ronaldo's desires to play in the Champions League Competition brought about all the drama around him. Wanting a champions league club made him nor report for training and when he did, Erik Ten Hag said he wasn't hundred percent fit and decided to dump in on the bench. Do not blame this on Erik Ten Hag. Like I said, most football fans lack retentive memories. He didn't just also disrespect the manager with that interview but also the management. Sancho was no starter for Ole Gunner Solskjaer who brought him in, but regardless, man was poor. He also disrespected the manager publicity, he needs to go!
