Carrick definitely changed the whole United situation, there is no doubt about that. But that doesn't mean that he will continue to do so. He did not had a full season yet, he had a half a season and he did alright during that season.

I believe Carrick performance is just going to be more better by next season, carrick joined Manchester United at the middle of the season, and he performed so well, he used the same set of players that Amorim signed, and he still performed so well, just imagine how Carrick will perform by next season when he has been able to get some players which he believes will improve the teams performance for him.

Let’s see how Carrick will perform when the season start, but I believe he will perform better by next season. Lots of people have hope in Carrick, and I also have confidence in him to improve the team’s performance.

With the performance Carrick shown us last season, I honestly believe he will do very good in the coming season because whem he joined Manchester united in the middle of the season,  he delivered and even do unexpected performance. So I believe if Carrick start the season with a nice performance he will do very great maybe even be one of the strongest team in next coming season, anything can happen.

Michael Carrick is not wasting his time as he jumped on a quest to build his dream team.
The recent transfer news says he's looking to acquire a French defensive midfielder, Aurelien Tchouameni, from Real Madrid. Media reports that Real Madrid is willing to sell Tchouameni, but the minimum they want for him is £85 million (or around 100m Euros).
Apparently Man United's officials are set to travel to Madrid to explore a potential deal with the player, so I guess things are getting serious and we might hear more updates soon.

The future of Marcus Rashford is still uncertain. Man United are likely hoping that a good performance in the World Cup could attract new clubs willing to pay the asking price. But if there's no luck in selling him, he will be reintegrated into the current squad.

Well Carrick has done a good job, to be honest he deserves to be given the job, he took Manchester United from their lowest to getting a champions league football. Now as his given the job we just hope he can deliver fro them. Manchester United will be participating in all available competitions next season so it will be a more tougher season for him and the players.

For me i think Manchester United will Have a bit of a difficult season, with so many competitions to play, I think they will slightly bad in the league. Well I’m just saying, let see where they will end this coming season.

Carrick definitely changed the whole United situation, there is no doubt about that. But that doesn't mean that he will continue to do so. He did not had a full season yet, he had a half a season and he did alright during that season.

Because of that, people have some hope that he will do a lot better when given a full season. But that doesn't always happen that way, a simple example that we can all see right now, Arne Slot won the league title on his first year, but failed miserably on his second year. We have no idea if Carrick will be like that or not.

You are right, because he performed well half a season, doesn't mean he will do the same for a complete season, we just have to watch and see.
Bringing Arne slot into this matter is not relevant, he won the Premier league in his first season with Liverpool, because he had the best players he needed. Coming into next season, he let 3 of his key players go ( Luiz Diaz, Trent, and Nunez), after these players left, I haven't  seen any good replacement for them, that was why he failed last season.  Looking at Arne Slot case, he led himself to his own downfall, we should not just think all managers are like that. Carrick has been in United for years, so it will be expected of him to deliver a good job next season.

I can't say for a fact that Carrick performance will be better next season,  seeing how things has been for Manchester united it's too early to consider him as the one for them.

Yes, he was able to do well with the players he met there and now having a chance to improve the squad for the better is up to him and the management. I think he has to be careful on how he spend the money and the players he is going for because this might end up as pressure on him if he is not careful.

I have really liked Tottenham's transfers until this moment. Another target for them is said to be Kroupi Jr. from Bournemouth.

It's said like they have already offered £85m for him but his team rejected the offer... His value in the market looks like €70m - ~£60m - but still they reject the offer?

How much do they want for him? He scored 13 goals this season and he is 20 years old. But isn't it risky to spend this much on him now?

Tottenham is very ambitious; they want to sign every player they desire in order to improve the team’s quality. What’s even crazier is that Tottenham is buying or offering to sign players at prices that are beyond what most people consider reasonable. Take this player, for example: Kroupi Jr., whose market value is roughly £60 million, but Tottenham is offering £85 million for him. Tottenham has disrupted the transfer market in pursuit of its ambitions.

In my opinion, what they did was ridiculous. Normally, they should have offered a more reasonable price and negotiated. But Tottenham are offering very high prices without thinking about that. I think the biggest problem with English teams buying players at high prices is these kinds of offers. Other teams know that English teams will pay a lot of money. This completely disrupts the transfer market.

You know Manny football fans still doubt this believe and even the Manchester United fans, some of them still doubt if Michael Carrick can deliver, Manny are using Ole as reference, because when Ole was an interim coach he did very well till he was given the job full time, then he started flopping, but despite that he still gave us some good games, but the reverse will be the case with Michael Carrick, he's given us enough reasons to believe in him, like same players that people think they had nothing to offer was the same players he used to achieve UEFA Champions League competition come next season.

If, last season alone with a makeshift squad, Carrick was able to turn Manchester United around and get them back into the Champions League, then his performance next season will be even better. That’s because, in addition to getting the players he wants, he’ll also have time to experiment with his tactical systems in preseason matches before settling on the right strategy once the season begins. I have faith in Carrick that he will lead Manchester United back to being a title contender next season.

I think Tottenham has been doing a lot of good business in the transfer market,  they have been very ambitious and not scared to spend money. I really like what they have been doing so far. Junior Kroupi is a decent player with potential,  I believe he will only get better, so I am not surprised that Bournemouth is asking for more than €85 million. I think the market is already inflated, so for any team to get a good or decent player,  they have to be ready to spend else they will not get their target.

Carrick shocked everybody because no one expected that you will take out Manchester United in that critical condition, but is presence change in narration of everything and that have given Manchester United hope of rising again. Manchester United fans have confidence in him to the extent that they are even bragging to win one of major trophy next season, which I still don't have doubt in their expectation because right now Manchester United are ready to make a very big difference most especially in the Premier League and Champions League because they are the major league that they are going to target.

This coming season will be very tough, I don't know of Chelsea but I have hope that with the new manager they will rise up again to fight for their position, Chelsea are started a client which make me look down on them because after spending so much on players they still don't have any positive results.

That is an insane amount of money for a 20-year-old! Offering £85m for Eli Junior Kroupi when his market value is around £60m shows that Tottenham is fully desperate to spend big. He is a massive talent and had a great season with 13 goals, but dropping nearly £90m on him after just one good year is a massive gamble.

[Cyber_warrior]

Manchester United have signed Andry Santos from Chelsea, it a package that worth 50million pounds. Well after losing out on Fernandez and Tonali, Manchester United really need to bring in a midfielder and they were able to get a deal done with Chelsea.

The question now is can Santos replace casimero for Manchester United, his he really a good signing for Manchester United. For it a deal that Favour’s all club involve and the player also.

Santos needs a playing time and I think Manchester United can offer him that. I just really hope he his a good signing for them.

[bitgolden]

It will be very insane for Tottenham Hotspur manager not to look for good players and sign them before time. After what they passed through about 2-3 seasons ago, if they don't want to sign quality players that will push and drive the team forward next season then they should be ready to go to relegation next season, this previous season they almost went for relegation if not that they were so lucky and they won in the critical moment.

They already have, they have a ton of players that they already bought, and spent a huge amount of money getting them as well. They do not need to get even more, that would be overspending, at this point I think they should put a break on it.

Because from a team that is relegation zone, to a team that is top 10, like 7th or 8th, would be a great improvement and enough for a single season. Then, next summer they can make more moves to grow even bigger. But for now, they have enough to make a top 10 goal.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Many expect the strongest performances of the entire next season from Manchester United and Arsenal City, but we have to be prepared. Something that ultimate football, especially European football, has taught me is that there can be many surprises. This World Cup has been a springboard for many players, so they can be seen and receive many signings and offers. That's why I say we have to wait for the first round of the Premier League and start measuring levels.

I don't see the latest Tottenham signing as business, Tottenham are building a team to compete in the Premier League, i don't know about their intention of contending for the title, but they are going to be stronger in this season. Other Premier League clubs should be scared of Tottenham, they raised the difficulty with their newest signings.

Chelsea man. Chelsea. Two billion pounds to be spent. They finished in the middle tier clubs.

Maresca left. Then they introduce Rosenior, they give him this long contract. And fire him like after 4 months. Four months. Following poor performances. Now Alonso comes in. And I like Alonso, I think he is a smart guy tactically. However he is heading into a mess. No identity, no real leaders, no idea about what it is supposed to be. It takes more than one summer to fix, no matter who you are.

Chelsea are optimistic of Alonso in the long-term, of course. But next season? United are ahead. Not by hype. Just by where both clubs actually are right now.

Funny enough, their first match will against each other.

Tottenham aren't the stingy Tottenham anymore.
But yes, their current recruitment efforts seem quite rushed. They also signed Mateus Fernandes for a crazy price, and now they're doing it with Eli Junior Kroupi, both players have only had one brilliant season, so it's fair to say Spurs are taking a high-risk gamble. Hopefully, the results won't disappoint.

I was surprised seeing Tottenham display some unimaginable tentacles in the ongoing transfer market this season especially willing to spend an unbelievable 85 million for a 20 year Junior Kroupi just to convince his team to sell to them,  although i don't  blame them for making such decisions because they narrowly escaped relegation last season because they failed to spend big in that year's transfer window when all expected them to do so.
With such impressive decisions in the ongoing transfer window am very sure they will do completely will in the premier league and other competitions because of the level of players present in there team.
