⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

In my opinion, Solskjær is suitable to be appointed as an interim coach, as he has a thorough understanding of Manchester United. He is a former player and has also previously served as the club manager, so his adaptation process would be easier and quicker. However, for the long term, Manchester United must look for a truly high quality manager, especially if they want to return to glory in the Premier League.

I was looking at some chart of who has done what and something that caught my eye was the winning percentages some of the past managers have had, and I was surprised that the special one topped the chart but the man was flashed out like he had done nothing ..but of course going forward I think the house needs some bold enough to put the house back in order or at the least has played for the club to get it back into that state of mind..

I've heard some rumors about Solksjaer being Manchester United's interim manager until the end of the season. I know him from his time with Beşiktaş in the Turkish league. He achieved some really successful results in the Europa League. With Beşiktaş, they got pretty good results, and I think he went through a successful period. However, the club's resources weren't sufficient for a manager, and he did his best with limited means. I don't think he'll be much worse than Amorim for Manchester United, because Amorim only won one of his three matches. Solksjaer is the kind of manager who can do that. At the end of the season, several different alternatives might come up.

Here we go; Chelsea management has agreed to bring Liam Risenior as their new head coach according to Fabrizio Romano.

Liam Risenior Will replace Enzo Maresca as the new Chelsea head coach, he has also been doing well for Strasbourg, now he is here to start another future in the Premier League with Chelsea.

Can Liam Risenior succeed in the Premier league? Can he be different from the likes of Amorim and others that have been doing well in other leagues and come to the premier league and finds it difficult? Let’s see.
I wish Liam Risenior all the best.

I’m probably missing something, but I can’t remember anything particularly remarkable that Strasbourg has achieved. As far as I know, last season they barely qualified for the Conference League. Honestly, I’m a bit, actually, more than a bit, very surprised by this choice, and I think that compared to Maresca, the new coach for Chelsea is a huge step backward. I just thought about the idea of seeing Maresca as the new Manchester United coach, what do you think, is that possible?

Chelsea is a badly run club, just like Manchester United, and I’m going to believe this appointment was due to panic of the management, I have never heard about Liam Risenior or whatever his called, this just seems like a Ruben Amorim appointment, I don’t really understand what this young manager have achieved in his career as a manager, he coached in Hull City and was sacked and coaching in Strasbourg I don’t see anything that makes him special as a manager he is like a Frank Lampard kind of manager, I will assume Frank Lampard have more experience than him when it comes to football management.

And I don’t really understand what it is with Chelsea and giving players and managers a lengthy contract, Giving him a contract until 2032, that is so ridiculous, knowing that this manger will be sacked within a year or probably two years he will be sacked because that is the Chelsea way of management, and their is no guarantee this manager is going to be successful, will they be patience enough for 6 years if things doesn’t go well for them in the club.

Chelsea is a badly run club.

I just hope that HERE WE GO won't turn out to be another problem for the club to start looking for a fast solution for the next 1 month of Liam Rosenior being in charge because this has been one of the biggest errors the management of Chelsea made this year, it should have been something they were suppose to allow to slide, allow the main man Enzo Maresca to stay till the end of the season before carrying out such decision. Starting with a new manager is like rebuilding the squad all over again and they have past this stage honestly speaking, things might happen to the players, slow start up, crazy mistakes (like they have been making with Enzo) and other things too and they can be emotionally down for those who likes Enzo Maresca, unless they are fast to adapt to the way Liam Rosenior will handle them.
And we shouldn't expect much from this man, he's just here to start up something and this is when we say "give him time", well we know how desperate Chelsea fans are so let's see how they endure with Liam Rosenior if something doesn't go their way.

Manchester United should calm down and look for a very experienced and elite manager. It wouldn't be bad if they stick to an interim manager till the end of the season. They ca use the second half of the season and scout for a better manager. They can lure Nagelsmann away from Germany after the world cup, or even try to get Luis Enrique at the end of the season. I believe things will be easier for them if they get the right manager.

My top choice for Manchester United is Luis Enrique, he's a top manager and his records speaks for itself. I was speaking with someone yesterday and I said Manchester United should stop all these their experiments on coaches, the club is too big for that. They should make getting a proven coach their main focus. Manchester United have got all it takes to convince  world class coaches to come to old Trafford. They are the most valuable club in the premier league, they have got the fan base and everything that a club needs to succeed. They should stop behaving like their are Tottenham or Bournemouth when it comes to appointing coaches. Unai Emery of Aston Villa can also fit in to Manchester United perfectly. Either Luis Enrique, Unai Emery or Nagelsmann can do the job at Manchester United with the right backing from the management.

I don't think it's very realistic to think Luis Enrique would leave Paris Saint-Germain to go to Manchester United. Because what he's done with Paris Saint-Germain is already very good. He won the Champions League and wants to repeat that this year. Manchester United, on the other hand, has been performing very poorly in the last few years. Perhaps if they can convince Aston Villa's manager Emery, it could be a very good option, of course. Also, Xavi and Nagelsmann are alternative managers that I think could be considered.

[Polkeins]

I think few people would want to take charge of United now, given the constant change of coaches.

We are talking about huge money involved here so alot of coaches would probably love to take a shot because even if they get sacked before their contract ends, they will still get a compensation for that but given the current circumstances its gonna be hard to actually get someone reputable to manage the club. Its always hard to find a replacement mid season and most of the time even if we get it, its not gonna change a thing

In Amorim's case, even compensation of 10 million would probably not make up for the time he spent at United and the opportunities he missed with Sporting. After all, without Amorim, Sporting would hardly have become champions and it was Amorim who opened up everything for Victor Djekeres.
Now Amorim will have to prove again that he can coach a top club, and that will take time.

Manchester is currently considering Fletcher, Solskjaer, or Carrick as interim coaches, but it is unclear where United will find a top coach before the end of the season who could quickly deliver results.

Luis Enrique makes sense as the long-term manager when his contract with Paris Saint-Germany comes to an end but I feel he will be swinging Manchester City's way more than Manchester United. Look at how Manchester United has frustrated and fumbled great managers, do you still think any great manager would want that?! Ole Gunner Solskjear for the next six months is an idea I would entertain and the management are gravitating towards him likewise. He will also be a great sporting director of the club after the next 6 months.

I will still say the same thing that Joe Cole said, since the Chelsea board are going for less proven managers to run the club instead of a proven and experience managers, they should not expect the fans to drop their expectations, because if he loses his first two games, the boos will start coming in.

All that the Chelsea fans want is result, and this choice of manager doesn't seems like a manager that can deliver that, so they will not be dropping their expectations because for him to accept a job that might be bigger than his capability, he should be really to face the consequences of not delivering the right results.
Sacking Enzo maresca is the right thing to do to me because he is ruining the team, playing players out of positions and even benching estavao Willian, one of Chelsea brightest attacking prospect, so a change was highly needed, my only concern is the type of manager they are recruiting, not the decision of sacking Enzo maresca.

I found a note about Liam Risenior that he once led Brighton U23 to win a trophy. I never knew much about him before. With Strasbourg, I also checked that Liam Risenior's achievements were not that impressive.
By the way, congratulations to Liam Risenior as the new Chelsea coach, replacing Enzo Maresca. Liam Risenior's presence could bring more competitive rivalry to the English Premier League.

Manchester United current interim manager is Darren Fletcher. Rumors of Solskjaer returning as Manchester United manager have been rife, and Solskjaer first period as Manchester United manager wasn't too bad, despite failing to win a major trophy. However, Solskjaer was able to improve Manchester United's performance enough to compete for the title. As a short-term option, Manchester United will likely reappoint Solskjaer as manager. I hope Solskjaer can succeed with Manchester United this time around.

I think Liam Rosenior will be successful at Chelsea for at least one season. Although his coaching record is limited and he hasn't won a single trophy in his coaching career, Liam Rosenior isn't tied to a single formation. He's able to implement tactical flexibility and bold pressing, as he did at Strasbourg. I'm confident Chelsea will perform differently and stronger under Liam Rosenior.

Solksjaer is a manager who came from within the club. He's familiar with the club's values ​​and perhaps one of the best at knowing what needs to be done. He had some experience in the past, but then had to leave. Now, if he takes over, I think he will do his best until the end of the season. If he performs well until the end of the season, they might even continue with him next year. The biggest problem for Manchester United in recent years has been the instability of their managers.

Many rumors are talking about Chelsea being interested in doing business to bring Vinicius at a cost of 160 million euros, Chelsea want the front line to be filled by the Brazilian trio:  Estevao, Joao Pedro and Vinicius. Although there is no valid information yet, if this is true then I strongly agree that Madrid release him. A big advantage for both clubs if they manage to reach an agreement, but again this is just a rumor whose truth has not been proven.

If that scenario happens would you agree with that?

Real Madrid have many wingers who could replace Vinicius. I think if such a high transfer fee is going to be paid, Vinicius should be allowed to go to Chelsea. The real issue is whether the Brazilian player wants to leave Real Madrid. Perhaps he wants to stay at Real Madrid and experience a higher level of competition, as he and Mbappé are already in good competition. However, their roles are different, and Mbappé has already scored many more goals. Vinicius seems like a player who wants to be the most valuable player in a team. He used to be Real Madrid's leading star, but now he's in Mbappé's shadow. Perhaps that's why the Brazilian player might want to transfer.

Since I have never seen how he manages his strategy as a coach, for the upcoming season starting from today's match, I will be on the side that agrees with the success of the rest of the season. I may watch today's Chelsea match just to see how Liam Rosenior leads the team from the sidelines. Fulham, the team that prevented Liverpool from securing a full three points a few days ago, will be Liam Rosenior's first test to prove that his appointment by Chelsea's top brass was spot-on.
Liam Rosenior's tactical flexibility and bold decision-making—I haven't seen that yet.

It's just another garbage rage bait rumor. Even if Vini is gonnna leaving as permanent, Chelsea will not sign him considering they will never pay someone with more than 250k wages. It's a big gamble that they should never take.
The rumor is just getting non sense when they also being rumored to pay 160m for him. I think you must not take this seriously. I'm sure it's a click bait rumor from 3rd tier news merchant.

I wasn't really happy that Maresca resigned, I know he has his own flaws but we can't deny the respect he brought back to the club within the period he was the head coach, Chelsea became feared by top clubs and even won two big trophies, I respect him for that and I hope he remains successful wherever he goes to.

 Well on seeing his successor, I was very happy because he was good in his previous club before being appointed currently as the head coach of Chelsea but I won't conclude yet about him being successful at Chelsea until I see how he handles the team in about two to three or even more matches. At this point, I can't say that we're still in the title race but if Rosenior can lead us to finish in top four then he'll have my full support in future.

It depends on Real Madrid in my opinion whether they will release their players or not, because what I know is that Real Madrid are still trying to keep their players. When it comes to release clauses, I don't think Real Madrid is a team that uses money as a benchmark, because their finances are very good.
And if Real Madrid release him, then Mbappe will be back in his position, so that's a good thing for Mbappe. But on the other hand it is also a job for Real Madrid to be able to bring in players of equal or even better quality.

Aston Villa may not let Luis Enrique to leave them at the middle of the season and also now that he is performing well with the team, Manchester United can go for him at the end of the season that is if Ole didn't perform as expected, Manchester United should stop sacking coaches after one and half season if Luis Enrique goes to Manchester United and not been given time they will still kick him off not because he is not good but Manchester United need a good result urgently which is not possible for now remember that any good coach that goes to Manchester United become a bad coach after one season.

Surely it had already been discussed in this thread! Maybe I'm late to the party.
Cancelo was on the verge of transferring to Inter, but in the end he chose to go to Barcelona! For obvious reasons, I would say!
What a shame! I would have loved to see him return to Inter.

Source: X Fabrizio Romano

Cancelo moving to Barcelona will be a good move for him, because I think his style of play fits that of Barcelona than Inter Milan. He is a good player and can still offer a lot for a team like Barcelona. It's understandable that you want to see him at Inter Milan, but it's seems likely that he is heading to Barcelona,  which in my opinion is a better option for him.
