⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[LUCKMCFLY]

I kind of feel bad for him because I know the quality he possesses, but it’s coaches preference in this case. Kai isn’t bad anyway and he always find away to get into the Arsenal score sheet whenever he plays, which is also another reason why Arteta don’t even consider to use Gyokores. But I don’t think he should leave. I think if he’s a little bit more patient, things could turn around and he might likely get the playing time he deserved. remember there are so many competition that Arsenal are participating in and only one good game and probably one bad day for Kai could change the coaches mind about whom should be the starting striker for the club.

I know you have to be patient when a coach doesn't consider you, but you have to think about the level of importance a player of your caliber has right now. You're at Arsenal, you should be a starter because your professionalism depends on it. It's not the same to win games without participating; in high-level players, that's called failure. If I were him, I would talk seriously with the coach. If he doesn't give me any options, I would ask to be transferred. Things aren't great right now, so you can't just put up with it because his rating is dropping, he's not considered that important, and a coach has the power to forget about you when they don't play you or substitute you.

This is one reason, in addition to our wingers not feeding him well ^{[I expect this to change when Tzolis comes back]} and rarely getting good line-breaking passes from the midfield ^{[nine times out of ten, they pass sideways]}. Surprisingly, in a few games Arteta picked both at the same time, they seemed to have good chemistry.
^{- FWIW, I think if the situation doesn't change by the end of the year, I can definitely see him leaving for a fresh start.}

Gyokeres has always been so clueless when he didn't get the pass from wingers. So sad Arteta's system seems not work to him well. I only hope Arteta to change his tactic sometimes to ensure he can utilize his natural striker better. Apart from that i actually agree with you he has to leave from the club if nothing changed to support him.

He's a good striker, but he's playing in a club with a bad system for him. He needs to play in the club that can feed their striker well. His price is also declining due to how poor his performance.

Aside from that i'm seeing a new rumor is circulating if Scott prefers to join Chelsea instead of Liverpool.



Although Chelsea is not in UCL, but their long term project sounds more promising with Xabi is in the club. So Chelsea can put less effort to sign him from Bournemouth while Liverpool can go to sign Camara from Benfica.  

Gyokeres looks like a player who doesn’t know what he is doing at Arsenal, last season he was given opportunity to make the number 9 position his, but unfortunately for him he couldn’t do that, Arteta tried to integrate him into his playing style but it wasn’t working, he was given numerous penalty kicks to convert but still he couldn’t find his composure in front of goal, so when Kai Havertz came back from injury who is already a good player in the Arteta system, one thing about Havertz is that he can try hold up play and allow the wingers to run behind him, but this are qualities that Gyokeres lacks in the Final Third, I hope he finds his scoring mojo when he finally gets another opportunity to prove himself.

Alex Scott can end up anywhere, it’s possible that he ends up with Chelsea or Liverpool, let’s see if anyone can come up with the money that Bournemouth are demanding for his Sale, I think club agreement is going to be vital. Let’s not forget that Alex Scott have a relationship with Andoni Iraola who was his coach at Bournemouth.

Gyökeres had performed very well at Sporting Lisbon. Thanks to this strong showing, he earned a transfer to Arsenal; however, he has struggled to deliver the expected level of performance there. Perhaps for this reason, he is currently being utilized as a substitute. Tomorrow, they will face Bayern Munich in Germany a major test for the team. Two of the four strongest sides in the Champions League are in action today, and the other two will face off tomorrow. If Arsenal can secure a win in this away fixture, they will gain a significant advantage in the league phase.

Expectations are very high for him and Gyokeres must play because he is a new signing and must gain the right experience, if he plays against Bayern Munich which is a very strong team and performs well the test will be largely passed, i also think that Arsenal have a great chance of getting at least 1 point.

[Justbillywitt]

Gyokeres seems feel so desperate because he never being a part of Arsenal's starting line up since the start of this season. Arteta always prefers to start Havertz instead of him, which is destroying his mentality. He rarely gets a lot of minutes to play, and he always becomes a substitutions only.

I think the growth about the gossip that says he's keen leaving from Arsenal to join another club makes sense. To be the best striker, what he needs is actual minutes on the pitch.

Leaving him at the bench is only destroying his career. I think Gyokeres has to think about that. He has to pick one between staying at one of big club in london or leaving for the better of his career.

If you were Mikel Arteta, won’t you be tired of this guy? Can you imagine the amount of support that this guy have received from Arteta yet he couldn’t break into Arsenal first team. Imagine if Arsenal attack was as good as their defense, do you think any team will come close to them? Gyokeres was bought to lead their attack but somehow he has been a complete failure. If Arteta keeps relying on this guy Arsenal will not be a serious title contenders. I wonder why he Gyokeres will be unhappy sitting on the bench when he couldn’t utilized the opportunities that were given to him. He better up his game or leave the club.

His performances have been way below average to be honest. I always said that buying Gyokeres would have been a huge bet because, at the end of the day, he only performed well in Portugal, where the whole team was playing for him. And we have plenty of strikers who scored tons of goals in Portugal and then, as soon as they moved abroad, they failed. The problem is that buying from Portuguese clubs is always expensive, so this was an expensive bet and, until now, it's been lost.

A furious lose by Como is obviously mounting all of pressure to the Carrick. It seems the management is also feeling he's not right man to continue the job, and we have several names circulating linked to them.

1. Naglesmann

2. Conte

Honestly, i rate both are good manager to sign, but Conte is slightly getting higher rate because he has won so many club level trophies compared to the Naglesmann. He has also experience in managing EPL club, and they can sign him to transform the club to be better.

I think they can't delay the decision to replace Carrick if they don't wanna see their club to fall down to the relegation zone.

I have my support to see Conte goes to the Manchester United instead of stay jobless. However, we have so many jobless names still avail such as Arne Slot, Thomas Frank, South Gate, and etc. I won't be surprised if expected move to happen by MU's management.

I'm wondering people opinion in here which the best coach to replace MU at this moment. Conte sounds the best candidate.

I think they should find a third alternative by adding management and officials who must be replaced first.
Coaches and players are always targeted but in the end when the pattern is the same where their management especially club owners only see Manchester United as a running wallet then the situation will not change.


Okay maybe this half-season change will have an impact at the end of the season but isn't it the same as before when Amorim came in mid-season replacing Ten Hag and then he was quite successful at the end of the season but the new season was ruined and the cycle followed Carrick?
The cycle repeats and it should be from this we know before starting with the players and coaches so it would be better if we try to be more realistic by fixing the management first.

I’ve been waiting for this to happen. Manchester United’s management has always been known for being very patient with their managers, but what’s happening at the club right now has clearly become unacceptable. I think they have to find a replacement for Carrick.

I’m not so sure about Conte, he seems like a manager who is too impulsive, and he never seems to stay at any club for very long. As for Nagelsmann, I think he would be an excellent choice for Manchester United. But I’m not sure he would be willing to take the job in the current situation, when the season is already a failure and the team is in need of rescue.

Nagelsmann? I’m sure that a month after his appointment, conflicts will break out in the dressing room, and Nagelsmann himself will end up arguing with everyone who criticizes him.
Conte is a more suitable option, but United is not a good fit for him. Do you remember how he left Tottenham? He practically echoed Ronaldo’s interview, criticizing the club from top to bottom. I would of course like to see this sequel, with Conte repeating everything Ronaldo (and Conte himself at Tottenham) said, but now at United, it would be very funny, but still, in a practical sense, no.

It is not just enough to expect Conte to replace the current Manchester united coach and they will start expecting to magically change an unserious team overnight. united have made a lot of changes so far and prior to now, we almost believed that the likes of Andre Onana were the problem they were facing and now that he has gone nothing has change and a team that finished top four is now going towards the relegation zone.

While fixing the angle of the coaching staff is a good plan, the players and other things and instrument that are jointly contributing to this consistent loss should also be looked into if not, they will end up frustrating another coach with their poor play.

Another manager sack incoming, a lot has gone wrong with Manchester United. As the management plans to sack Carrick, i also hope they know that buying players is important if they want to compete very well, low effort players cannot be used to compete against clubs with the best players, and players who already fit the manager's description, as a new manager is coming in, let him make use of the January transfer window to sign his players, they should be ready to spend money.

Obviously, Conte is better than Nagelsmann, Manchester United doesn't need average coaches behind the lines.

If my vote should count, I would vote for Naglesmann. I really enjoyed watching Bayern Munich during his days with his high pressing football. I will like to see him at Manchester united but the chance is very slim. From the two options you mentioned, Conte clearly stand a better chance than Naglesmann because of EPL experience. But like I said in the other thread, United problem is beyond just changing coach. Anyone taking that job now should be ready to face severe pressure and that's one reason to fall short of expectation and before you know it, it becomes the same story.

As a manager who has come up from within the club, I believe Carrick deserves the chance to lead the team over the long term. For this to happen, Manchester United needs to exercise some patience. We all saw how well the team performed last year; naturally, similar expectations were held for this season, and the fact that they have fallen short of that level has left everyone disappointed. But consider this if Michael Carrick had finished in the middle of the table last year without securing a spot in the Champions League expectations for this season likely wouldn't be nearly as high. As it stands, his achievements from last year have been all but forgotten. In my view, the Manchester United board should show him some patience.

Looking at things currently Kai still deserves his spot most especially from the fact that he can get most crucial goals. Gyokores has not really be exceptional since his arrival, he didn't really meet expectation.

Although, another view can be that Arteta might have not fully supported his signature. Finding a better option is not a bad idea for him, the EPL is tough also or maybe Arsenal wasn't favorable for him, considering the number of goals he has with the number he scored before his arrival at Arsenal.

He surely do deserve it when you look at how the team plays, kai drops dip down and plays together with the midfielders when arsenal are not with the ball, he could do that easily because that’s his natural position, attacking midfielder or some call it supporting striker. That’s said I’m still on the Gyokores matter. I’m glad he came in earlier yesterday than other days and also got to assist Declan rice for the equaliser. He should just keep up with his best performance and Arteta will definitely not have choice than to find a place for him. Even if it’s to play the two of them up front, because the left wing is a bit weak as Christos Tozolis that was playing from that side is currently injured.

[Somto9Light]

Obviously, Conte is better than Nagelsmann, Manchester United doesn't need average coaches behind the lines.

Antonio Conte has been in the Premier League, he has more experience that Julian Nagelsmann but it doesn't mean he will automatically fix Manchester United if he is given the job to become the team's manager. Antonio Conte succeeded in his spell at Chelsea when he was their manager in 2016-2018, he won the FA Cup and also won the Premier League title for Chelsea so he should be able to apply same tactics for Manchester United. The question is what if he is not able to make quick improvements for Manchester United, will he face sack too? Because Manchester United is known for sacking coaches almost immediately if they are not able to get a good result within a period of time.

[Antotena]

But I’m not sure he would be willing to take the job in the current situation, when the season is already a failure and the team is in need of rescue.

I don't think so, I think they are patient with how they handle the way they sack coaches which is the best thing. They observed players and coaches for sometime, if they see that you don't have improvements after sometime, they sent you away. Amroin had the same treatment I believe but when the time is due, they kicked him out without any explanation. Watch Carrick, his clock is ticking now, if he doesn't do reciprocate the same thing, he will be kickout of the team.

I'm going to prefere Nagelsmann than others, that guy didn't just change Bayern Munich, he was the weapon fashion against other teams in Bundesliga. If he can't win the Premier League for Manchester United, let him assist them from this weekly embarrassment. They need to change the way this club is moving, look at the way Como trash them yesterday. It's better they don't play in the Champions League than what they did yesterday.

Gyokeres deserve more minutes and Mikel Arteta need to find a way to make him have more playing time, because if he wants to leave no one will blame his decision, he is one of the best strikers last two seasons before joining Arsenal and Arsenal have turn him to a bench player because of Kai Havatz and other players that are not better than him, although he did not have a good performance last season but he tried his best to help the team..

If Arsenal did not want him they should sell him and let him have a good career in another club, I believe that there are many clubs in premier league that will come for him when Arsenal want to sell him, the guy leave a club that he has one of the best career to join Arsenal and they are still keeping him on the bench for Madueke and Saka that are not better than him.

[IjawMan]

Mikel Arteta could still keep both players and rotate between both in order to get the best out of them, Kai Havertz and Gyokeres are both wonderful strikers

Though Gyokeres have not really found his rhythm at the Emirates but there is a possibility that both players could be play a pivotal role in the same team without selling anyone of them just make way for the other.

Every player wants playing time and when he is not getting it the next thought will be to leave to another club where he can be getting that playing time. 

[Homemade-IQ]

Although Chelsea is not in UCL, but their long term project sounds more promising with Xabi is in the club. So Chelsea can put less effort to sign him from Bournemouth while Liverpool can go to sign Camara from Benfica.  

If Chelsea can pull off this transfer in January, it's going to massively strengthens their team because Alex Scott is a quality player with a lot of promise. The only challenge they might have is Bournemouth valuation of him, because I know that Bournemouth will want to do everything possible to get the best deal out of him, but since the player only favours Chelsea move, it's going to put Bournemouth in a disadvantage position during negotiations in January.
