⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Alonso_]

Liverpool sold this player to Bayern Munich and he has been a scoring machine for the Barbarians, the version we saw of Diaz is completely different from how he plays at Liverpool, he has been upgraded. You guys would agree with me that Liverpool are missing what he brings to the team, having Isak, Ekitike and Wirtz have not been doing what the fans expect of them too(I wouldn't say that for Wirtz) but I know they're going to be different come next season.
Diaz on the other have gotten 11 goals in all competition this season and 5 assist more than these new guys at Liverpool and he have more goals them them 3 put together, which means they're not up to the task at hand. I believe Liverpool fans would be wishing he stayed for the club and I'll ask, are the Red missing Diaz

Man, to be honest, i rated Diaz's quality is far above Isak, Wirtz and Ekitike combined. How dumb Liverpool manager by exchanging him with scam players like those three. If Diaz would still there, Liverpool might not as bad as this time.
He's been their key player last season, and why so easy to let him left? At this point, all of people in their management deserve the sack.

They exchanged a diamond for gold, silver, and bronze. What a pathetic decision.

I totally disagree with you, I have been following Liverpool businesses, Luis Diaz isn’t better than Isak and Wirtz, Ekitike, I’m not disputing the fact that Diaz is a good player in his own right, but saying that Diaz is far better than Isak that is totally false, Ekitike and Wirtz came from the German Bundesliga, for your information scoring goals is far more easier in Bundesliga than scoring in Premier League, Wirtz and Ekitike scored so many goals in Bundesliga before coming to England and now they somehow finds it more difficult, at Bundesliga you have more freedom and space to play, but Premier League you don’t have a chance for space at all, when Diaz was in the Premier League he has few numbers for Liverpool he struggled to score and finish chances, now in Bundesliga he scores for fun, it’s the difference in the League, you don’t respect Isak enough, do you even know how many Premier League goals Isak scored last season Diaz have never had that number, I bet you don’t know you, will not be making this comparison, he was never the key player, Salah was the key player, and for your information Diaz requested to leave the club, because he wanted more money from contract offfered by Bayern, and Liverpool also offered him contract to stay, but he wanted more money, so Liverpool had to let him go, Liverpool aren’t like Newcastle to keep a player against his desires. Nobody in the club deserves to be sacked for letting Diaz leave, you’re wrong for saying that, he was granted his wish, that is how a big club should grant their players wish.

Last season Salah wa their key player not Diaz, he only compliments Salah well that's it. If Salah has been in form this season the team would have been doing perfectly fine. The started the season well even after Diaz left them.

Diaz is a fine player but when compared with the above listed players I don't think he is more talented than any of them. He played in same league with Isak and his team went to win the league but he only managed to make 18 league contributions ( 13 goals, 5 assist) while Isak managed 23 goals and 6 assists in the league despite playing for Newcastle united.

We all know the qualities these players posses and Liverpool saw it all before splashing huge amount on them, even the fans all approved these signings and we all tipped Liverpool to dominate football entirely if they sign them but things didn't go as expected if not you won't be saying what you are saying now. The adaptation is slow but that doesn't take away the qualities in them. Isak was one the best and most in form strikers in the premier league last season and Wirtz was one of the best in his position and rated among the best midfielders last season. It was a good decision by Liverpool it just didn't work out as expected else they will be on another level right now.

Manchester City is aiming for Real Madrid midfielders Arda Guler. Pep Gurodila is monitoring his performance and due to this he thinks that Arda Guler can utilize his tactics instructions in better perspective. So now Manchester is really intending to sign him for the next season and that's why they are will to sign him as the most expensive player of the club history.

What did you think Guys. Does Xabi Alonso will let him go or not?. I think Xabi Alonso will never let him go to left the club because right now he is the key player of Xabi Alonso system. Like after Kroos and Modric Arda Guler is the player who is contributing to the team at a top level.

What did you think Guys?
Let me know.

This season Arda Guler has been played a lot by Xabi and he has become a prominent player and is able to make an important contribution in the midfield, he is exactly the right player to be the player that City needs, but the problem is whether Xabi wants to let him move to Etihad or stay at Real Madrid, because his performance is quite impressive and losing him would be a blow to Real Madrid's midfield stability, so this will be a consideration for both Xabi and the Real Madrid management before any transfer decision is made.

Semenyo is unarguably Bournemouth's best player. So, of course, he's not going to come cheap. Based on his quality, £65 million pounds seems to me like a bargain. He'll fit perfectly well into Amorim's system, and one unique thing he's going to bring to the team is his versatility. He can play as an LWB, RWB, one of the number 10s or as a centre forward. If United can get him during the transfer window, it's going to be huge.

Being the best player is not the reason why he doesn't need to come cheap. If he is not worth the £65 million, no club will sign him; he is going to stay at Bournemouth until his contract expires.

Semenyo is worth that amount because of his stats this season. He is unstoppable this season, with great finishes. But i think £65 million is much for him. £55 million is the ideal price for Semenyo.

Madrid is not a poor club, they are not a team that manages players until they develop and then sell them back when they have contributed to the team, especially since Arda is the successor to Cross and Modric, his chemistry with Bellingham has been going well, so it is very unlikely for Man City to bring Arda to Etihad even if they offer a big offer.

It was a good decision by Liverpool it just didn't work out as expected else they will be on another level right now.

Let's forget about their stats last season and focus on the present one, I think he's better than all of them combined currently and it's nothing to debate about, it's really had to tell why those players are not giving their best, well it doesn't mean they're bad players but some Liverpool fans I know are already wishing they didn't sell Diaz cause of what he's currently doing at Bayern Munich, it's understandable why they feel so cause Diaz was a good player at Liverpool just that Slot wanted an upgrade in his squad so he had to sacrifice Diaz for some players to come in.

Breaking news comes from Zinedine Zidane. Currently, Zidane is the favorite to replace Didier Deschamps as the new coach, who will leave the France team after this World Cup ends. However, there will still be no official announcement from the federation before July. This may be quite a clear plan for Zizou in 2026.

Based on rumor from several top media, Zinedine Zidane is strong candidate become France national team head coach replacing Didier Deschamps will leave his position after World Cup 2026. More than seven months left and its too longer time have many speculation in the future who will be candidate for becoming France national team head coach indeed Zinedine Zidane has bigger opportunity. Its longer time for Zinedine Zidane if really appointed as France national teams head coach since leaving Real Madrid never become manager for any teams.

Maybe around four years Zinedine Zidane not become as head coach for club or national team, however waiting until the World Cup 2026 to know who will replace Didier Deschamp position Zidane or have other candidate?

Damn  "Breaking news".
It seems like it's already been 5 years since Zidane has been waiting for Deschamps to leave and give up his place to him? I wonder what will happen if France wins the World Cup. After all, if the results are there, why change the coach? How many years will Zidane have to wait? I can already imagine the same headlines, but only in 2028, 2030, etc. Deschamps is a fairly young coach, he can work for a long time.

I just checked Deschamps age and his 57 now. I wondered whether this has been confirmed and yes, he said an interview that 14 years as the French coach is enough and he would prefer to go back and coach a club. I can understand that, I would have been surprised though had he said that this would be his last engagement as a coach, but his plans are just different now.

Zidane is going to make it. I think the odds that he will be the next coach are like 1.01. Zidane has never been a coach who was willing to build a team over time. He only comes when he knows the team is actually ready and he can reap the fruits. In my opinion that is one thing that makes him incomplete as a coach. Guys like Klopp have been true team builders and proved that they can do it. The French team now is exactly what Zidane is looking for. The best players in the world individually and he only needs to find the right words.

Coaches who "build for the long term" (or rather, those who even have the opportunity) are a major exception in today's reality. Results are needed here and now, and Zidane is the ideal candidate for such a position. I believe that, despite some successes with the French national team, De Schamps is an average underperformer, since France always has too top-notch a squad to fail at the European Championships and miss out on other titles like the Nations League and the World Cup. Zidane is a cult figure in France and will be expected to achieve something like the Champions League triple that he achieved with Real Madrid. Therefore, the pressure on him will also be very great.

I think Zidane is enjoying a long vacation. Zidane indeed achieved a lot with Madrid. But I doubt if Zidane will join France to replace Deschamps. The level of Madrid during Zidane's time can be said to be in the best squad condition, which is why he won three UCL titles. Maybe that achievement is very good and makes people think he is a great coach. Zidane should prove that to everyone and quickly get a new club and new achievements. So if France really wants him, at least Zidane would have gained more experience in various competitions. So staying without a job will only make it even harder for him to get a new club.

France just won the World Cup with Deschamps in 2018 Are we talking about the same coach? He won it in 2018, reached the final in 2022 (which was lost in the penalty shootout...), and name a team that is not underperforming in the Nations League. The reason is most teams don't care about that competition. You can see how the results vary much more than in World Cup or European Championship qualifications. You don't have to be a Dschamps fan and I am not a fan either, but average underperformer is probably an exaggeration for a coach who lost against the World Cup winner in the quarterfinals in 2014, then won the World Cup in 2018, then lost the penalty shootout in the final in 2022. I guess this is perhaps one of the most successful performances of a national coach ever? I don't know.

I was just trying to say that I love to watch how coaches build a team or at least provide the team with a clearly identifiable philosophy. Zidane can do whatever he wants, but I would have liked to see him take over a team that is not yet fully ready to win it all. Would have been interesting to see what a journey for a whole club looks like when Zidane takes over. But he won't do that for several reasons.

Portugal  Portugal is clearly overperforming in the League of Nations.
I just looked at his achievements as a coach and yes, you're right, he has a victory in the Nations League and silver + the semi-finals of the European Championship. Apparently, I remember very well when France, being the favorites at the European Championship, lost to Switzerland in the 1/8 and this is the general impression I got about Deschamps. If you look at the average level, it's actually very cool, which is why Zidane is waiting so long 

[Adbitco]

Being the best player is not the reason why he doesn't need to come cheap. If he is not worth the £65 million, no club will sign him; he is going to stay at Bournemouth until his contract expires.

Semenyo is worth that amount because of his stats this season. He is unstoppable this season, with great finishes. But i think £65 million is much for him. £55 million is the ideal price for Semenyo.

With other rich clubs has so much inflated the transfer market, if his performance increases from now to the next transfer window, Bournemouth won't even accept a £66 million bid anymore. If his contract is up to 3 years Bournemouth will demand more money and if the team that needs his services, needs it urgently then they will pay more. The market is, as a player improves, so does his market value (money).

Liverpool sold this player to Bayern Munich and he has been a scoring machine for the Barbarians, the version we saw of Diaz is completely different from how he plays at Liverpool, he has been upgraded. You guys would agree with me that Liverpool are missing what he brings to the team, having Isak, Ekitike and Wirtz have not been doing what the fans expect of them too(I wouldn't say that for Wirtz) but I know they're going to be different come next season.
Diaz on the other have gotten 11 goals in all competition this season and 5 assist more than these new guys at Liverpool and he have more goals them them 3 put together, which means they're not up to the task at hand. I believe Liverpool fans would be wishing he stayed for the club and I'll ask, are the Red missing Diaz

The major reason you guys are bringing this up is because all these players that was signed at  Liverpool during this immediate past summer is not living to expectations, because if they were doing very well already, who would have even be speaking of luiz diaz? No body.
I expected him to improve further at Bayern Munich which he did, and Liverpool are more pained because all their new signings are still struggling, but once they all adapt, they are certainly going to comes good, it's just a matter of time, but before then, if Arne slot does not improve this team very fast, he might lose his job in the process, since time is not in his side.

Yes my brother, nobody would have been talking about Diaz or saying things about the newly signed Liverpool players if someone like Isak more especially is living up to expectations because many people were thinking he'd bring the fire he had at Newcastle over to Liverpool but instead we're just seeing less of him.
Imagine, the goal tally of one player is what sums up the three new heavy signings of Liverpool. As of last season, Luis Diaz could not match up to Isak in terms of goals but now it's like the tides have changed.
I know that time is what would tell for these players but does Arne Slot have that time like you said?

Didier Deschamps has been coaching the France national team since 2012, a change of coach to Zinedine Zidane wouldn't be a bad move. Zinedine Zidane was a great player and a coach who also brought out the best in Real Madrid but the only thing i think is special about him is his performance as a player and as a coach otherwise we have coaches who has also done great for Real Madrid just like Carlo Ancelotti who also won three Champions League title for Real Madrid. The decision of not coaching a new club is left for Zinedine Zidane, he has his own reservation as to why he hasn't accepted a new job offer and from the experience he has gathered in his coaching career at Real Madrid, if he becomes France head coach, he will still extend same level of commitment to the team.

Despite being a very talented player, Isak still hasn't achieved what he wanted at Liverpool. At Newcastle United, the team played at their best, according to him. He knew the mentality of the players he played with very well. Therefore, his runs were tailored to his teammates. The Liverpool players will gradually become more integrated. I'm confident that this agreement will lead to even better performances for Isak.

But many people want to demand faster because of the expensive purchase in addition to Isak being in the Premier League before so he understands the game of this league it's just that adapting to a new team is sometimes difficult.

I know Isak is a player who has potential for a good future now just waiting until he returns to form again but it all depends on how Arne Slot puts him so that Isak is in a comfortable position.

Arda Güler is in slightly better form this season. That's why I don't think they'll let him leave the team. Furthermore, young players are a key part of Real Madrid's future plans. Arda Güler is one of the team's youngest players. I don't think they'll let go of a player with such a promising future at such a young age.

Arda Güler is one of the team's youngest players. I don't think they'll let go of a player with such a promising future at such a young age.

Arda Güler is going no where next season. He's a promising young lad for Real Madrid and if we're not mistaken, these are the kind of players Florentino Pérez would like to keep in the club. There's no going back or forward, because these players will crave for Greatness when it'd time. Tell me something, name one young lad in Real Madrid that's better than Arda Güler? I'm not talking about Jude Bellingham or Brahim Diaz, Real Madrid are so blessed with outstanding players. Ambitious players that have priorities to meet up and wouldn't slide or lay low for any moment.
