⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[TastyChillySauce00]

It's interesting some reliable sources are starting to talk about Real Madrid is interesting to sign another kid from Stuttgart, Finn Jeltsch.. I'm only wondering how long until they realize if they really need ready to play CB. Bastoni will suit them well with all of his experience, why do they need to gamble on another unproven kid.
Don't they watch how Huijsen made so many questionable decision when he was on the pitch? All of their success were mostly coming when they signed ready to play player instead of gambling on the kid.

It's hard to understand what thing that is changing their habit right now. Paying 8 figures for this kid will never worth the money. They must be going for Bastoni instead of getting scammed again.
I'm also feeling curious whether this idea is coming from mourinho itself or their scouting team?

A question for any of madrid fans, will you guys like to see your team gamble on another kid instead of bringing an excellent CB?

Over the years, Calculated moves are all I can say Real Madrid has done and every player they signed long term for the future ,had performed to their expectations or even more than that. I don't know the kid, but if both parties are genuinely interested, they'll make it happen and also make history.

Take a chill pill, Dean Huijsen is a potential player and will most definitely pick up in the future. He is only 21, and if you watched him when he played for Bournemouth, he did show up good. He is the least player I'll find myself being worried and bothered about.

Manchester United is gonna announce Isaac Kounde as their signing soon. The rumor says Isaac is going there for 7 figures. Honestly, it's hard to guess whether paying 7 figures for 16 years old is worth. The only thing i can guess is that MU is focusing on building the new stadium, which will cost them more than 2b. Meanwhile, their recent financial report is also showing they are in net lose. So they may be building their future squad from signing the young talents this time. That's their only hope to build a good club when they will have no so much money to spend due to their debt and bad finance.

I’m also skeptical about these new transfers. When a player is only 16 years old, I think they don’t have enough experience to strengthen the team right away. There’s no doubt that such a transfer could be an investment for the future, once the player gains more experience and develops his skills. But for a team that needs immediate reinforcement, spending a lot of money on a teenage player may not be the best decision.

There was a time , when Manchester United sign any young players the whole world eye on them but current Manchester United are very much in a worst position even they sign a big players nobody even talking him even media are also jot promoting him. First of all I don't the players who is that's issac konade and why Manchester United spending that's much money on them. First Manchester United doesn't need any new young players because they wasting him time and didn't give him a minute of play. They need an experience player which can bring the club to the old way. It's not gonna work if you bring young players and then didn't give him a minute of play then later sell him or loan out. Same situation happen with Garnacho.

He will be difficult to compete in the squad despite being given some pretty good playing time last season but at the moment the situation is different.
Iraola needs more proper players and Chiesa will find it difficult to get a chance at the moment.

Going away from the club now is not a bad thing for Chiesa, his age is still not too old but to be at a big club with that level of competition when his form is still not back is difficult so I think it will be better for Chiesa considering a club that can give more minutes than Liverpool and competition that is not too difficult to penetrate the core squad.

You're not entirely wrong, because Liverpool had such a strong squad that it was difficult to find a way to include Chiesa in the starting lineup. This made him much less visible even in the eyes of the Italian coach, making him less of a priority for the national team and, above all, slowing down his career and his chances of significantly more playing time.

[Callido]

There's Benjamin Sesko and we've still got Joshua Zirkzee as well as a backup striker for Manchester United. During the time of Erik ten Hag we was one time linked with a move for him but nothing happened. So far so good, I can tell you that the above information is completely propaganda. Manchester United do not have no Interest in signing the English international. Disregard information like this. They carry zero credibility.

I know that collectively the whole Manchester United are underperforming, but I do not understand the reason behind Carrick leaving Sesko on the bench in a Premier League game, he cannot be resting the striker because of the Champions League, he shouldn’t give that as an excuse, while United are having a bad run in the Premier League. Manchester United don’t need another striker, Carrick has enough of them but isn’t given who deserves the starting spot in the squad.

Sesko has mainly only been useful when coming off the bench. He is still very young though, he could still be ome the main man there.

I’m not sure if Carrick will last the season still in charge but that’s another discussion.

[giorgione]

It's sad that his career turned out this way. He was a really talented player with lots of potential but sadly he is one of the unlucky players that didn't hit their prime despite showing lots of potential. The injury was a major set back for him and ever since then he hasn't been able to play at his best again. Moving to Liverpool after such injury was a bad move, he should have remained at his former club or move to a place where the competition is less.

Moving out of Liverpool now will be a wise choice, he can still get some decent club and have more playing time which will be the best thing for him if he wants to gain back his form.

He's a player with enormous potential, but he was truly unlucky, given his qualities and abilities. Many clubs certainly watched him, but only Liverpool managed to secure him. Unfortunately, he was forced to sit out a very serious injury, which forced him back into the fold without the opportunity to express his full potential.

Even if Klopp or Zidane were to come, the situation at Manchester United wouldn't get better. The main problem there isn’t the coach, nor is it the players (though a few players need to be replaced, with Bruno Fernandes at the top of that list). The big problem is the management, which needs to be replaced so that the mentality there changes completely and I realized this when Ronaldo returned to ManU.

[changaa]

I was actually surprised that he still kept playing and moving from club to club even after that first incident in that Euro Championship game. Watching him play the games was always a big worry to some of us who thought that he would collapse once again at any time

I am grateful that he finally get to retire and focus on his health and family. There is more to life than just football.

When a player has a passion for football, is very difficult for him to let go of it for other reasons, or at least he'll always try to cultivate it as long as he can and as long as his body allows. So i think is normal for a player, even as he gets older, to realize when his body can't take it anymore and is time to stop.

[m4r1o]

Chiesa is a good player, but he needs to find a team where he can show his best qualities. It was difficult for him at Liverpool because they play a very fast, high pressing style of football, while Chiesa is more accustomed to Serie A, where the style of play is more measured. That's why it was difficult for him to adapt to Liverpool. He simply doesn't fit into Liverpool's style of play, I think he will be able to find a new team because I don't consider Chiesa a bad player. But most likely, he will be able to get back to his best at a Serie A club.

I think Chiesa proved a lot at Liverpool, so much so that the fans were angry with the manager himself for not playing him more. And they were right, because for me, Arne Slot was a mediocre manager who never really knew how to benefit Liverpool. Nonetheless, Chiesa remains a regular at Liverpool, and the best thing for him, if he wants to return to playing for his country, is to find a club where he can be a starter.

This made him much less visible even in the eyes of the Italian coach, making him less of a priority for the national team and, above all, slowing down his career and his chances of significantly more playing time.

Federico Chiesa had 33 appearances for Liverpool last season, scoring 3 goals and contributing 3 assists in 3 different competitions. I don't think he's too bad for the team, but you're right that having a lot of great players in the squad will make the players compete for a place in the main squad. Federico Chiesa can be deployed in several different positions although he tends to be good on the right wing, this is a flexible player. If he does not get enough playing minutes at Liverpool and still wants to lock his place in the national team squad, then the option is to move to another team that needs him more.

Federico Chiesa still has a chance to play at his best level at his age. I don't think he should be in his comfort zone without considering his better future. Moving to another team is the best option instead of staying at Liverpool. I think there are a lot of teams who could afford him considering his market value is only €13m, but I think he would be better going back to Serie A instead of the Premier League.

[verdinio]

This particular player has not been favored under a few coaches in Liverpool and I thought by now he should have seen it as a smart move to leave the club but because he maybe is confidence that his time will come or is comfortable in the city has decided to just relax and accept being a substitute and bench warmer for Liverpool from one coach to another. I think it is the best move for him in his career for him to leave as the coach wants in January even if not on a permanent move he should likely first go on a loan move to another club to increase his value for the transfer window when it opens up because being a player that has not played in many games for a very long period of time many clubs will not offer a lot of money for him regardless of the past record he has before joining Liverpool.

The possibility of a loan is certainly a real possibility that can offer a player great hope and opportunities for improvement. When you don't find a spot at a team you strongly desire to stay with, it's natural to consider a loan option, knowing there's a strong possibility of returning to that club and staying. Of course, it's also up to the player to demonstrate his qualities and his desire to stay.

Manchester United can try all they can but the truth remains that their Glory days have passed and now the competition has increased in the premier league. Unlike in the past when they were the most influential team in the league when Sir Ferguson was in charge they usually attracts the best players but now other clubs have become more competitive and are pumping money into their teams as well and as a result Manchester United are finding it difficult to retain their position as the number one best team in the league. I wouldn’t want to say that the Manchester United management haven’t put in effort to revive the club and get them back to winning ways but there are other teams now in the league who are equally being competitive and won’t let them breath.

Carrick is being questioned a lot and to be honest looking at Manchester United squad it's not like the alternative are a lot better and there are still ways where he can start with the others but the fact that Carrick method is not even helpful looking at their recent games makes all of these more annoying for United fans.

Maybe after the international break things will be better but still it's still too early to want Carrick out.

He has Mbuemo in that upfront also, he can get to switch between the two of them and not rest one of them for the champions league. When any of the player is best fit for a game, he should be used and not wait for the champions league until he uses them. They can be of importance in any of those games and add to the success of the game. Manchester United have a very great squad, it is now left for the manager to know how to integrate them together to his own best in order to give them confidence and victory in every game. Manchester United squad looks very complete to me also, they don’t need any striker now, the available ones can do the job just fine for them.

What is Christian Eriksen still doing in football? He ought to retire because he's aged and having to fight with cardiac is everything he should be worrying about. Eriksen is top player but with this current cardiac arrest that does happen to him on the pitch each time he's about to have a better game, It's limiting him to explore and his chances of bouncing back to epic football is now limited.

This whole problem originated when he was representing his country, Denmark that were playing against Finland and he collapsed on the pitch but rushed to the hospital and was given AICDS ( automated implantable cardioverter defibrillator. This is the time for Eriksen to calm down and retire so he can have enough rest.

I believe Eriksen was an excellent midfielder who proved his worth at many clubs. Unfortunately, he was hampered by health problems, which he always tried to overcome in order to continue playing and doing what he loved. However, he can be satisfied with his career thus far.

At the moment, this is more a case of blowing things out of proportion than any serious movement. You need to get used to the fact that scouts from top clubs work year-round across all positions, regardless of whether a player is actually needed for a specific role. Naturally, players' agents and journalists have an interest in framing routine scouting as a battle between top clubs for yet another player. For now, I see no reason to take such news seriously. However, I must point out that Rüdiger is essentially a veteran who will be leaving in the summer, and Militão is frequently injured. Real Madrid might well look for a player for this position in the summer.

[cande86]

Why is the news disturbing? Eriksen is past his prime and has a heart condition, I’m relieved that he finally retired from football after that incident. Like many other players who find it hard to step away from football completely, he too can consider other roles (like punditry, management roles) that does not involve much physical activity or risk his health. 

I believe a player will always find it extremely difficult to step away from the pitch. Players like Eriksen, who find it truly difficult to say goodbye to football, should, when they finally do, think seriously about finding a role that keeps them as close to the game as possible, whether as a fitness trainer, a coach, or a club director. Let's just say they have opportunities.

I think there are a lot of teams who could afford him considering his market value is only €13m, but I think he would be better going back to Serie A instead of the Premier League.

Last season and now it will be very different for Chiesa because if before he was always given a chance (although his performance was not very good) but Slot always believed he could be able to make a difference in midfield or attack but for now it seems difficult because Iraola doesn't make Chiesa a priority even for substitutes so it will be a little difficult for him to stay in the squad.

5 weeks into the new season but Chiesa has still not been given a chance to play and this should be a strong signal that he needs to leave Liverpool before his career sinks further because it is difficult to get a chance to play.
Last summer there were actually occasions when rumors linked Inter with Chiesa but it was only rumors because Henrique's move to Roma failed so Inter did not bring Chiesa considering this was possible when Henrique was bought by Roma. Now it's just a matter of waiting for a transfer in the winter because I don't think it will be difficult for him to get a new club (although smaller than the current club) if Liverpool put Chiesa on their sell list.

Mbuemo is not really a striker but a player that loves to play behind a striker so rotating them is almost unlikely. Sesko has not really proved he is reliable even though he has turned up a few times, he has been labelled to be a super sub because he mostly performs well whenever he comes on as a substitute.
For coaches sometimes things happen beyond the way we see it, sometimes they are forced to make a decision even them don't want to. Maybe resting Sesko was a decision he has to make because there's no other choice. There's no point resting a player when the premier league is also as important for you and when the champions league hasn't even gone far.
