⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Sally9256]

Rudiger is a family guy who is used to Europe, played for 5 years in the premier league, so moving his family down to Saudi would cost him more efforts than getting a deal in England would, he'd have enough playing time, and his family won't have to go through the environmental labor of adjusting to a new culture.

Rudiger has played at the highest level of football and he has won the highest trophy in terms of club level, which is the Champions League, so if it happens that Real Madrid didn't renew the contract of Rudiger no one knows where he will be heading to, he can decide to play for money if he leaves Real Madrid, Saudi Pro League or Major League soccer is the best league for him to earn good money at his age, and for his wife, he can make her understand why he needs to play in the Saudi Pro League or Major League soccer.

Rüdiger has long been a high-quality defender for top tier football clubs. Perhaps, as he nears the end of his career, he might choose to return to Germany to finish his playing days in his home country. Alternatively, if his goal is to max his earnings, he could move to Turkey or Saudi Arabia. While Saudi Arabia offers higher financial rewards than Turkey, some players avoid it due to its distance from Europe Mohamed Salah being a recent example. I believe it is quite possible that we could see Rüdiger in Turkey.

I believe by now teams from Turkey and Saudi pro league would be looking to get him because he will definitely be useful for them. I won't be surprised if they start coming for him now that he will be a free agent although the decision still remains his to make.
At this level now I think it should be more about stacking up money than playing for passion, he has already achieved a lot in football so considering a place where he will be payed more should be the new goal. They pay well in Turkey and also in Saudi so wherever he choose is good. If wants to keep playing in Europe I believe a team from Turkey will come but if not Saudi is the best place to get more pays. They are both good location for retirement.

Rüdiger has long been a high-quality defender for top tier football clubs. Perhaps, as he nears the end of his career, he might choose to return to Germany to finish his playing days in his home country.

After the world cup he ended his career with the German national team.

plus I need not to remember you that this same Rudiger and his family are Muslims and you know how dear they love the Saudi Arabia so it will even be a privilege to go there for Rudiger and his family according to their beliefs

Not every Muslim is used to following the core Islamic tradition governing the East. The belief is lite in Europe than in the East. However, Spurs is showing a big interest in the defender, his impact in the club will be noticed more than he'd offer in Saudi, based on the skills of the team mates he'd be playing alongside in Saudi.

Tottenham is not a team that regularly qualifies for the Champions League, they nearly got relegated last season and are trying to build a team that would be competitive in the league but if they can qualify for the Champions League it could convince Rudiger to sign for them.

If he goes to Spurs all positive outcome will be awarded to his long term defensive experience, he can as well improve his market value before moving to Saudi, than going there as a free agent.

It's as if this club no longer wants to win trophies'and that's exactly what the management wants. Amazingly, they've managed to spin it all to make it seem as though they're about to bounce back.
Carrick, the coach who stepped up when management asked him to fill the role left vacant by Amorim's firing, has provided the answers. This season, I don't blame Carrick for Manchester United's performance, because it's impossible for someone like Carrick to change his strategy by putting players in positions that aren't their natural ones.

Over the years Manchester United have made totally wrong choices, they are simply now paying for all these absurd choices made over the years, as always something goes wrong and then everything goes wrong and it takes time to fix.
And it also takes courage, because to fix things, you have to make a complete clean sweep.

Manchester United have started the season badly and with the amount of points they are behind other teams at the start of the season, I don't think Manchester United will have a strong comeback this season. I don't know why Manchester United can't perform consistently. They have a tiger defender in their team but they can't really play at the moment. Manchester needs some major changes at the moment and until these changes are made on the field and the game continues like this, it seems that Manchester United will fail like this.

Manchester United will continue to suffer like this until they take time to fix their problems. What they need to do is get an elite coach and trust him for the long term. Coaches like Pep, Enrique and Flick are the kind of managers they should be going for. Then allow that manager the freedom to sign players that fit into his system so he can build his team. Even if they don't win a trophy in the first two years, they shouldn't panic but trust the manager.
This is something Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Barcelona and PSG have all done, and it worked for them. Manchester United needs to try it.
They can't keep doing trial and error with different managers.

It's easy for a team that has coordination to have make a come back. Do Manchester united team looks like a team that has a coordination? I thought Amorim destroyed the legacy of the club but I think Carrick had finally destroyed what's left for the club to defend. How can you be losing matches like you have never seen how professional coaches manage a club, this is becoming international than the way it was looking from beginning.

Bruno Fernandez wasn't started today because of how they didn't do well with Camo. The fans thought the best decision was for Carrick to bench him and they just repeated what they did in the Champions League. What changes do you think the club need now if not for complete change of the team. All the coaches from top to bottom need to be replace, the players as well, they unreliable.

[Smack That Ace]

They have a tiger defender in their team but they can't really play at the moment. Manchester needs some major changes at the moment and until these changes are made on the field and the game continues like this, it seems that Manchester United will fail like this.

Lol! Manchester united's defense is strong??
I do not  know on what statistic you based that.
But over last few season I have heavily criticized the team's weak defense. This season, their defense is performing even worse, conceding 13 goal in just  8 match.

After performing brilliantly last season, I thought United would rebuild and strengthen their squad with Carrick's help. But they have not brought any major change to squad, especially in defensive line where experienced players were urgently needed. If Carrick fails to strengthen his defense, we might not even see the team in top 10.

[Adbitco]

I seriously cannot remember under which manager Manchester United last won 5 matches in a row not to talk of the year, last season when Carrick was hot as a manager, he almost made by winning 4 but couldn't make in 5/5 that's why that Manchester United fan hair is still on after making that pledge. With how the team is, then I'm damn sure this year will also be added because they will not win 5/5 matches this season anymore.

I don't understand how a team like Manchester United can struggle so much to string together a win in a row with the players they have available. Perhaps there have been too many changes over the years both in managers and players or perhaps they have lost the identity of that fantastic team they were up until 2015. Football today is all about money, but teams like Paris saint germain have managed to build incredible, formidable squads by instilling a winning mentality, and that’s what United are lacking. Is it time to bring in Antonio Conte?

It's just a pitiable disma pisma for Manchester United, this quest for 5 wins in a row came into play 2 years ago from the content creator that went viral regarding his statement of not cutting his hair until Manchester United wins 5 consecutive matches in a row. His hair is still all grown and he hasn't cut it, that was what even reminded me of this 5 matches in row not been achieved since then. I seriously can't start comparing them with PSG because the French side is miles ahead in the last decade. Besides what is actually killing Manchester United is management issues and not coaching issues, until they address that or they sell off the club, I'm afraid to say, Manchester United will be where they are or even worse.

[len01]

They have a tiger defender in their team but they can't really play at the moment.

A strong defense? Bro, do you even realize what you're saying? Please explain who these reliable defenders at Man United are. Is it Maguire? Leny Yoro? De Ligt? 

I suggest you watch the replays of a few matches or at least watch one full match to see how MU's defenders are playing these days. Once you see all that, you'll understand what the weakest part of MU is right now. You can also see some ridiculous things in their matches against Spurs and City.

Manchester United needs to bring in new players. They must, in fact, rebuild their entire defensive line, which will require numerous signings. The defense is their biggest problem many of the errors they make and the defeats they suffer stem from issues in that area. Strengthening the defense might help them reach a better level, but they need to make enough signings during the mid-season transfer window to effectively overhaul the entire squad. Meanwhile, Carrick’s position as manager is looking precarious.

At the end of last season, Manchester United were playing with the same players, and the team was much more effective than it is now. So what has changed? Almost nothing, a few new players , but I don’t think that alone can explain why everything has gone so wrong. I think Carrick doesn’t know what needs to change to get Manchester United winning again. He says he loves the club, loves being here, and loves his job, I have no doubt about that, but it’s obvious that the team is getting worse under him.

[Issa56]

We shouldn’t expect what happened last season to repeat itself this season, just because they started last season poorly, and things changed when Carrick joined, and they ended the season in 3rd position doesn’t mean we should expect similar thing to happen this season also. Manchester United started the season poorly, but I don’t know if their will be changes in their performance, but Manchester United will have to get some fresh players if they really want their performance to improve, they should just let some of their players go.

Manchester United are one point above the relegation zone after 8 games. This is the worst Manchester United team we've seen in years.
Amazingly, Michael Carrick will remain Manchester United head coach, breaking tomorrow. After this awful performance, no club will allow the manager to continue in this clueless job. Funny enough, the fans at the stadium are supporting Michael Carrick by blaming the players, even though the errors on the pitch are completely their fault.

No! They'll suffer until this set of management and board of trustees in charge of the footballing aspect of the club are all but gone completely.

Louis Van Gaal made complains about them.

Jose Mourinho said something like that about the club.

Ole Gunner Solkjaer made mention of how he was not given players he wanted.

David Moyes the same thing, they went for fourth choice scouted players under him.

And what then did the greatest player of all time, Cristaino Ronaldo tell the public about Manchester United and where they'll be in the next two years or three? Lo and behold, we're far from good and if we continue with em, we'll be properly ganged raped.

You are right but there is a issue with what you said: the Manchester United problems are caused by its own management. They are the reason for their own failures. You're right when you say they need to choose a coach and trust him with a long-term project but, at the end of the day, who doesn't give enough time to the coach? The management. And they've been doing this for years and years and years. They never learn.

Manchester United signed mostly Defensive Midfield players and defensive players during the transfer window. In that context the team's performance analysis shows that the new players are playing relatively well but are performing so poorly due to the weakness of the team's attack.

Perhaps the team's management wants to have more confidence in Michael Carrick for a while and give him more time to improve the team.

As you said, the fans in the stadium are blaming the players, I have also heard this from some people who said that Carrick is responsible enough and is trying to improve the team and many fans are supporting him.

[asriloni]

Dyche becomes the front runner to replace Sage. The painful lose against Newcastle is almost driving them go to the relegation zone. So they're urgently need someone to bounce back them up again. Dyche might be falling in his previous club, but he's quite often helped a club to leave from their difficult situation.

Who knows signing him will be working better instead of keep Sage much longer in the club. I think they have to sign him asap before things get worsen. It's such a shameful for the club like crystal palace who won trophies last season dropped to the Championship.

They did stupid things by sold all of their important players. If they didn't do it, Glasner would still stay there, and they keep their place so high in EPL. What a stupid mistake that cost almost everything.

I'm feel exciting to see what's gonna be Dyche's redemption act when he goes there.

You are correct in noting that Carrick has suffered through poor results, but the assertion that nothing has changed isn't true. United has splashed out on midfielders Santos and Tielemans, but injuries have decimated the squad with Martinez, Mainoo, Shaw, Dorgu and Ugarte all absent.

Carrick got off to a good start (third last season), but United find themselves in 16th place now, with a record of one win in eight.
Fans chant Carrick's name, but the players get booed for their performances on the pitch.

Leny Yoro and De Ligt are off course elite defenders,  don't you know? But sadly, you get this substandard performance when you play under a subpar manager who can not pair two great players together. I'm not here to convince you about Harry Maguire we all know he is never good enough to be a Manchester United defender, even Thomas Tuchel took someone else over himself during the fifa world cup tournament.

It is my own opinion that those two are elite, with the pace and everything needed in defenders to succeed. You just need a good manager yo bring out the genius in these two. The rest are either without mobility or not consistent.

Worse compared to what?  Compared to the standard he himself had set. Unfortunately, this happens - a rise is followed by a decline, although it was predictable back at the end of the summer when it became obvious that, against the backdrop of competitors who were strengthening very seriously, United had done practically nothing. Plus, Rashford's return is probably still something of a black mark, impossible to rationally justify, but I place most of the blame on him 
One of my outrights has a United Top 10 outcome at odds of 1.04. Right now, it doesn't look like a reliable bet at all, lol.

It’s being reported that representatives from Arsenal and Liverpool were closely watching Batrakov during the match against Lille. He’s a talented young player who may have caught the attention of Premier League clubs. Batrakov has a £50 million release clause in his contract. When I saw that figure, I thought to myself that no club would pay £50 million or more for him. If they do, Galatasaray should sell him immediately.

Batrakov can only perform at the highest level for a certain amount of time. Looking at the match as a whole, I can say that, aside from his pace and energy dropping after a certain point, he doesn’t have any other issues. If he takes these things seriously, we’ll see him playing for top tier teams.

He could be called Galatasaray’s best signing this season. Up to this point, Batrakov has overcome his physical disadvantage by discovering and strengthening other aspects of his game. He positions himself very well, makes the right runs based on accurate anticipation, and when he gets the ball, he doesn’t give his opponents time to engage him in one on one battles. However, in my opinion, his physicality is still insufficient for the EPL. His buyout clause is very high, and I don’t think there’s a team that would be willing to pay it.
