This might be the right decision for Arsenal. Because maybe it's a bit difficult to win the title with Arsenal's current players or Mikel Arteta needs to work harder with his players or improve their skills. Rather than that, I think it would be the right decision to let go of some old players and bring in some new ones. They should even take a tougher stance on some important players and try to sign them for a long term. Maybe we are going to see some of these steps from Arsenal.

I agree that it would be the right decision to let go of some of Arsenal's old players and bring in new players, perhaps this entire responsibility should be left to the club management. Maybe I have mentioned before that this team is prioritizing three strikers to strengthen the striking position, meaning that Arsenal Football Club is prioritizing these players in their summer plans.
If Arsenal are able to add a new striker in the transfer window, it is believed that Mikel Arteta will be able to further enhance the team's capabilities. You are probably absolutely right that they should take a tough stance on key players and even extend their contracts, so that Arsenal will never be weak.

The reason for their main focus to be strikers is really understandable looking at how good they have strived without a real number nine so adding a real threatening striker to their game would just make things work well for them because they will be more threat upfront and also goals will be actively coming since that's the most important feature of any winning team or trophy collecting team and if arsenal is able to get someone dangerous upfront it will really help arteta campaign next season.

That's true Arsenal problem is getting a good striker so arsenal should invest in getting a good striker because the missing link that arsenal has been having in terms of winning the league is tied to the fact that they don't have quality and good strikers that can score goals consistently week in and out

In the end, Ange Postecolgou said goodbye to Tottenham and all the fans. Some of Postecolgou's statements were quite touching, from the heart:

"'We are forever connected. Audere est Facere (To dare is to do).'"

Source: Ange Postecolgou’s departing statement is from the heart

Well, Postecolgou became the Tottenham coach since 2023 and ended in 2025 this time. Tottenham finally officially dismissed him 16 days after their victory against Man United in the Europa League and as champions. However, Tottenham's performance this season is considered to have declined significantly despite their winning in the UEL.

I have noticed this problem with them since the beginning of last season. They have failed to score two or more goals in most of the matches. Be it the Champions League or the Premier League, they have preferred defensive football everywhere. As a result, they have been able to score 1 or 2 goals in most of the matches. Although they do not seem to have any problems in other aspects, they are weak in attack and lag behind in attacking football. If you want to rule in modern football, you have to give more importance to attacking football. Because the audience likes to see goals and the opponents also feel the pressure.

There was a massive response of disappointment after Fabrizio Romano posted the sacking of Postecoglou earlier today. Though, it was not as if the sacking was coming all of a sudden. It had already been agreed on before today that he (Postecoglou) would leave the club at the end of the season, and Postecoglou at the same time also assured everyone that he wins a trophy in his second season at any club, which he actually did, but I guess it wasn't enough to change the minds of Spur's management and board.

The interesting thing at this point is, he is definitely going to get another job in this transfer window. I'm not sure though, but if Thomas Frank of Brentford leaves the club, then Postecoglou might be a replacement, or he might just get an offer from other clubs.

What is going on in Arsenal? It looks like Arteta/club management are doing some big cleaning.
I read that they announced 17 players will be leaving club this summer:
https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/breaking-arsenal-release-players-arteta-35335759

Obviously, almost definitely there will be some new players joining in, names like Benjamin Sesko, Viktor Gyokeres and Hugo Ekitike are being mentioned, but those will be pricey.

You could think that the second place and reaching the semi-final of the Champions League could be counted as an achievement, but I guess the club owners are not quite satisfied with a 5th consecutive season without winning a trophy (not counting the 2023 Community Shield).

In fact, Arsenal sells none, right? I don't believe this news until there will be an announcement they successfully sell their players. They always remind me with Barcelona who always keep the players until the end of contract, then let them to leave for free.
They're not good in doing football business.

I also confirm their rumor being linked to the Gyokeres and Ekitike were fake. I meant they never made substantial offer for Gyokers and Ekitike, but they submit a bid for sesko.

[dezoel]

We do not know whether Amorim will be successful with Manchester United. We have not seen that Manchester United's performance has improved with the help of Amorim this season.

The club management might consider Amorim for next season, but only if the situation in their squad changes as Amorim wants. Although it is possible that all the desired player targets cannot be achieved for this transfer market, at least Amorim must be able to force the players to increase their level of play.
Ten Hag and Amorim were considered quite good with their previous clubs, but when handling United, their abilities seemed to decline. Hopefully, Amorim will not suffer the same fate as Ten Hag.

Despite having the worst performance still Manchester United management giving another chance to Ruben Amorim is surely big gamble for them, but currently they have no better option because things are getting worse, and they are surely needed to be had some faith on him.

Even everyone well aware about this prospect of this club but in last few years they are facing terrible situation and all things are getting worst without any proper backup now how they are going to be done in coming season its important because management will not take too much time if Ruben Amorim failed with his tactics he is regarded as good, but now he needs to give something better this last season. Situation is tense for fans as well because now they needed something which give them good, and they are able to enjoy like they have done in past every going day is hurting them with these results.

That is also what I am thinking because having a very good striker will help them improve better than they have ever expected. This is more than 2 seasons that they have always finished the league as the second in the table. If they should have a good number 9 in their mix, I think next season will be very great for them, and they will become more dangerous, as you mentioned, if they get someone that is very dangerous. But if that should happen, next season will be very amazing for Arsenal, as they will have the possibility of winning the trophy.

I think decision of the Arsenal team to recruit players is very good because it was not just an option, but it was a necessity for the Arsenal team to give some old players a chance to rest and add some new faces, new talent and new potential to the routine because such things have been experienced and noticed been successful and it is also the need of the time because the small challenges you face cause a lot of improvement for you and your team's performance because the new people who come have the potential to discover things, to move forward and to create so much for themselves. So when so many dedicated people become part of the team, the performance of the team definitely goes up. So this is the reason why the performance of the Arsenal team will improve even more with the arrival of the new players.

If they get it but as we know Arsenal always fails to find a dangerous striker especially the executor to score goals even though the search continues for several seasons and indeed Arsenal's problem and it has not been resolved.
If they succeed in bringing in a dangerous number 9 player in front of the opponent's goal I am also sure Arsenal will be able to win the title because in other lines we can see the quality of Arsenal players is quite good.

Arsenal squad line of players is not entirely bad since the team usually come 2nd at every end of season. What Arsenal need most is to sign additional players for backup if their main players go on injury. If we watch, when you will notice Arsenal team will begin to perform bad is main their players are injuries, no better replacement found in the team to fill in the gap.

However, I think letting go of old players, and bringing in new players is not really ideal for me.

Not bad but not perfect enough to win titles with a squad like this, we have seen what happened in the last few seasons for them when towards the end of the season they couldn't maintain their form. It would be nice to bring in some other players but the more complicated problem is not that, as I said they are not perfect enough because they don't have a good striker, Merino is often forced out of place therefore Arsenal need a no 9 like Haaland and they should be able to do it.

The change that everyone who supports United wants will surely be quite big for next season. If it is only a small improvement, I am sure that Amorim will not be able to stay at United much longer.
United may have a little difficulty in getting the players that Amorim wants, that is because United's situation will not compete in the Europa League or Champions League. a test for Amorim next season.

Most Manchester United fans want a sudden change in Manchester United performance, maybe they want to win the Premier League by next season which is not going to be possible. If Manchester United performance is going to improve, then it’s going to be gradually, we shouldn’t expect everything to change within a season. Amorim have been given the opportunity for him to sign the players which he believes will improve the clubs performance, so let’s just see how he will perform next season, but we are suppose to lower our expectations, don’t expect so much from Amorim by next season.

After Fergie retired, Man United seemed to have lost their power and the majority of Man United supporters really hope that Man United will be good again in every season. Unfortunately, even though 12 years have passed, Man United still doesn't seem to be getting any better.

The burden is now borne to Ruben Amorim, and this coach seems to have the potential to make Man United better, as he comes with different strategies and formations, and maybe that's what Man United needs. It certainly won't be easy, considering Man United probably don't have much budget left and not all players may be willing to join as Man United are not playing in Europe this season.

The reason why Manchester United is still struggling after the retirement of Ferguson is because united did not look for a sustainable means through which they can rebuild and get a good team that can compete at the top level because one thing that we need to know is that the Ferguson era coming to an end affected united especially in the style and philosophy of play united should have invested in young players that will have be of assets in the future not this system of getting already made players with out a proper football ideology.



Another thing that United has gotten wrong is the manner at which they changes their managers even Ferguson where struggling in his first and second season as manager of United Manchester United is only concerned about getting results but will not wait so that the coach will build the team of their dream so they should give their coaches time to build not been quick to sack

[Velvet78]

I don't want to dramatize it but man, Ange just won the Europa League trophy! Why didn't you give him another chance?    I know he finished the Premier League horribly. But isn't this a good compensation for it?

The players were going to be much more motivated for the new season. They even say there is some revolt among them due to this decision if it isn't just a rumour. I think it is really unfair.

[ITExpert]

The reason for their main focus to be strikers is really understandable looking at how good they have strived without a real number nine so adding a real threatening striker to their game would just make things work well for them because they will be more threat upfront and also goals will be actively coming since that's the most important feature of any winning team or trophy collecting team and if arsenal is able to get someone dangerous upfront it will really help arteta campaign next season.

Arsenal has decided to recruit new players in the game and let old players rest and we should admire it because their team need youngsters who has high spirits to win. New players will be more energetic and adaptive to new skills and the second thing is new players should also be given a chance to serve and to prove their worth. Arsenal needs a striker who will have a primary role to just score goals and will lead the offensive line. If Arsenal do it they are going to amaze the international teams with their goaling strategies and their game wil be much more improved than before.

I also confirm their rumor being linked to the Gyokeres and Ekitike were fake. I meant they never made substantial offer for Gyokers and Ekitike, but they submit a bid for sesko.

What I know is that Arsenal is currently approaching Benjamin Sesko and the agreement process continues to be ongoing, indicating that Arsenal is really focused on changing the front line to be sharper. In addition, I see several players also leaving for other teams such as Jorginho, but I see Arsenal really utilizing this summer transfer market to fix the weak gaps in the team because they really have to be ready to compete strongly next season in the fight for the championship title.

It is true that Arsenal is very bad at doing sports business, unlike Dortmund who get a lot of money in the transfer window. This season Arsenal is really disappointed because they didn't get a single trophy even though the quality of the depth of the team this season is quite great.
