UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[slapper]

I'm worried again about my club Galatasaray's chance in the Europa League now. There is still something ambiguous that's why I feel that way.

We haven't signed a left winger and a midfielder before the deadline for squad registration of the EL. Now we won't be able to register anyone until the end of league phase. I'm really happy with Osimhen signing on the other hand. My only worry is whether he will be assisted well meanwhile. I'm hopeful about Mertens for that job.    Old teammates are reunited here again!

I wish we didn't sell Kerem Aktürkoğlu to Benfica. But he wanted to take this opportunity. He could have also made lots of assists to Osimhen just as he did to Icardi until now.

I hear you. Galatasaray's lineup has some question marks. There isn't any specialised left winger? Midfield depth a little shaky? Certainly, that is less than perfect. But Osimhen is a game-changer. And he once more linking with Mertens? That's chemistry you can't buy. Mertens is flexible even if he has been playing left wing lately. If necessary, he can close the gap

Losing Aktürkoğlu stings, no doubt. Let us, then, concentrate on what they DO have. Mertens and Ziyech on the wings? That's creativity and width. Osimhen arrived top? That is a menace that will keep defences alert late at night. And should the coach get hot with a two-striker arrangement? Watch out. Look; the squad is not flawless. Still, it's about best utilising your resources. And Galatasaray's has a real chance to create some noise with Osimhen spearheading the assault. Believe that

[bitgolden]

The part I love the most is that the first 8 goes straight to last 16, but the other 16 teams will play with each other for the other 8 places. The teams finishing 9th to 24th will be playing against each other for a chance to be at the last 16 places. In theory that means even if you finish 24th in the groups, you can still be in the last 16, and that makes everything so much more fun.

I bet you that there will be at least one team that is out of top 16 in standings at the group stage who will go to last 16 round for sure, it will be a surprise but it will probably happen. The rest is basically the same, nothing much else changes at that part, the 8 games that teams will play is the newer thing during the group stages itself.

[lixer]

With Mertens and Ziyech at left and right wings, Osimhen in the center will receive good key passes, cross basses and assists from his team mates in this season. Mertens used to be a main scorer for Napoli some seasons ago and even he is older, he has great skills to score goals. Ziyech is younger than Mertens and he will support Osimhen better as with less injuries, more appearances, he will have more chance to play with Osimhen in Galatasaray.

Mertens with his old age, has bigger risk from injuries and might miss many matches for Galatasaray in this season. It limits his chance to play together with Ziyech and Osimhen and possible appearances for Gatalatasaray as well.

Osimhen with this transfer to Galatasaray actually made a big mistake and it starts a downside of his career. He will need to find a better club after the end of this season, possible destination can be La Liga or Premier League if he wants to play at highest level.

I do not agree with this because I have feeling he has done better decision because sitting on bench is not ideal for any star like him with Napoli is already having no desire to have Osimhen into their playing eleven specially as now they have Lukaku so Osimhen were had only 2 options go to Saudi League or have something other option so he used to go Galatasaray which is also having commitments in UEFA Europa Cup, so things will be favorable for him and his performance in this season.

If we have good performance from him in this season then surely we can expect good club for him in coming season as now release price is also having good decline things are not bad at all Turkish clubs are having good hype in last few months, so things can bring good change for his career in UEFA.

In theory that means even if you finish 24th in the groups, you can still be in the last 16, and that makes everything so much more fun.

I don't think that's the concept the team that finishes in 24th place will qualify for the round of 16? Isn't it only rankings 9-16 that count? after matches 1-8 matches have been played if more than that (17-36) then they do not qualify for the round of 16, this season will be different from the previous season there will be many matches to be played honestly I also do not know for sure about the concept of the Europa League and Champions League this season let's just enjoy how the match goes this season.

I bet you that there will be at least one team that is out of top 16 in standings at the group stage who will go to last 16 round for sure

Keep in mind that this season there is no longer a group system like before

Oshimen's market value has been negotiated to the tune of $75m. Imo, he wants to leave Napoli by all means but his move is blocked by Napoli because they're requesting an insanely high market value for Oshimen (over $130m) and that was what delayed his rumored move because no team wants to buy a player that costs that much. That used to be 3-5 years ago. That said, I think his move to Galatasaray is a smart one for him since it affords him to getaway from Napoli.

He's a great addition to Galatasaray team but do I see them going very far in the UCL? Of course not.

Even too much noise about this transfer but still it's good addition for the Galatasaray and Turkish Super League because now we have good increase into their fan base with good number of African peoples are also talking about them due, so things are not bad at all despite things are insane about his salary and other related things.

Osimhen having huge drop in his value due to last year conflict at the Napoli and worst end of season for them with in early days of transfer window few were talking about his possible move to PSG or Premier League but due to no cut in releasing clause by Napoli things not gone as planned, but now we are having this cut from €100 million to €75 million which is good even this year he will be not able to play in Champions League but with his performance and good result he can bring himself in better position for the next season while he will be able to go into his desired club.

That is true and the decision that Osimhen has taken is much more correct because staying without getting playing time will affect his skills. At Galatasaray he will get a position as a first team player and he can continue to play to get the opportunity to improve his skills. Staying at Napoli will actually make him not a first team player because now they have Lukaku as the main striker. So I think moving to Galatasaray is the right decision and if he plays consistently then in the next transfer market there will be a team that wants to buy him. Osimhen must think about how individual abilities should be improved because in the previous two seasons he often had injuries and was not played for several reasons that happened with the coach.

[Moreno233]

He is the most expensive player in the Super League with his current market value. He has a market value of 100 million Euros. Sofyan Amrabat, who is in second place, has a value of 22 million Euros. I think the difference is enough to explain why the fans are excited. He is an incredible talent. The fact that this talent will play in Turkey also scares his opponents. He has rebuilt the Galatasaray team. They want a successful European career like last year. In other words, last year's final was not very good, but I think they were very successful in the groups in the Champions League.

Oshimen's market value has been negotiated to the tune of $75m. Imo, he wants to leave Napoli by all means but his move is blocked by Napoli because they're requesting an insanely high market value for Oshimen (over $130m) and that was what delayed his rumored move because no team wants to buy a player that costs that much.

He's a great addition to Galatasaray team but do I see them going very far in the UCL? Of course not.

In my opinion, he would have gone to PSG or any of the English teams since he is still playing active football and not for the money. At Galatasaray, I do not see him getting any of the major trophies this season and even the Turkish league is not certain for him because they still have big sides to fight with, because Galatasaray do not dominate the league even though they are a strong team.

I still feel he would have gone to Saudi Arabia, at least to make some money just that he is still very young with a promising future ahead, the reason the EPL or PSG would have been a better destination than Galatasaray.

I'm hopeful about Mertens for that job.    Old teammates are reunited here again!

Dries Mertens will play as a left winger, Hakim Ziyech plays as a right winger. I think Galatasaray coach will use this duo players for the wingers. But it will be quite confusing if one of this players got injured. There is no more option for a left winger if Mertens injured. Well, I can understand that Galatasaray has too many right wingers, they have no pure left winger.

However, it is good that Galatasaray signs Osimhen. It is a food addition player for Galatasaray. With 4 strikers in the squad, I think Galatasaray coach may use an option to play with 2 strikers.

Mertens is a fantastic player, but at 37 he is not becoming younger. On that left wing, they need a backup plan; Barış Alper might be the solution. He's youthful, energetic, and possesses that natural width. Ziyech on the right is rather excellent. Thats a move that makes sense. Though Galatasaray is not his final move, Osimhens is a great striker. He has potential to be among the best; premier leagues throughout Europe are calling. Should he choose to realise his own potential, he might have to weigh those choices downstream.

For now, though, let us concentrate on what Galatasaray has. They are in this to win; they have a fantastic coach, a terrific squad. Believe me, this club is going to make a lot of noise this season.

I do not agree with this because I have feeling he has done better decision because sitting on bench is not ideal for any star like him with Napoli is already having no desire to have Osimhen into their playing eleven specially as now they have Lukaku so Osimhen were had only 2 options go to Saudi League or have something other option so he used to go Galatasaray which is also having commitments in UEFA Europa Cup, so things will be favorable for him and his performance in this season.

Osimhen must think about how individual abilities should be improved because in the previous two seasons he often had injuries and was not played for several reasons that happened with the coach.

If the situation is that bad, it is better not to stay long in Napoli because it will make him slowly fade as one of the best players, being an option for Lukaku and Osimhen is indeed a good move for Napoli but it will not have a good impact on one of them who is not prioritized.

Saudi? hmm I think it is not wise to go there, but that is where the money is for him to have a career, it's just not necessarily long-term because the Saudi league has not built its reputation too far, while going to Galatasaray is not a bad thing if we talk about reputation and it is also good enough to develop yourself, it's just that it can't be compared to the popularity of the league, the Italian league is much more popular.

Osimhen does need to improve his quality again. The injury made him get less attention and his performance became unstable and like before when Napoli dominated one season of the Serie A league.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Osimhen with this transfer to Galatasaray actually made a big mistake and it starts a downside of his career. He will need to find a better club after the end of this season, possible destination can be La Liga or Premier League if he wants to play at highest level.

Many people talk about this, although the truth is I don't know what could have happened there. Yes, the PL is the best league in the world at the moment, because of the high level of football they have shown, but whatever Osimhen has decided is something that suits him to climb towards something else. It's hard to think that it could have influenced him, but for me it has to do with some moral issue or something. This player has always been determined to follow his heart a lot. I think his emotions could have been behind his decision.

For me, about Osimhen playing at Galatasaray it is something good because anyway, considering about the transfer rumors that previously happened about Osimhen's move to PSG, Chelsea, Arsenal and maybe some other top teams also from different leagues that failed and or did not really happen. So, if Galatasaray do not sign Osimhen it will be worse for Osimhen, because Osimhen is also no longer needed at Napoli because Conte did not include Osimhen in the Napoli squad this season.

With this case, then playing at Galatasaray remains a good choice for Osimhen because he has accepted it. Because after all, the Turkish League is also basically a competitive league and moreover, Galatasaray will also still play in the Europa League this season. Thus, there is no setback whatsoever about Osimhen because after all, at Galatasaray also only has the status of a loan player and of course, there is still a chance for Osimhen to join other top European teams when the transfer window opens again later.

[dezoel]

Osimhen must think about how individual abilities should be improved because in the previous two seasons he often had injuries and was not played for several reasons that happened with the coach.

Plus, there wasn't really any other options for him were there. I mean Russia is at war right now and they are not really fond of getting players for loan neither, but mostly the war thing. Saudi league did had an offer but pulled out, so there wasn't really any UCL teams that knocked on their door that could still get Osimhen, the best team left that was possible was Galatasaray, and that's who he went to.

I am sure that January window will be very critical, I know the loan deal is until June, but by January the transfer window will be open again and he will want to leave, Galatasaray will try to convince him to stay of course, but I doubt they can, and Osimhen will give ultimatum, either let him go or he won't play, and Galatasaray would rather lose the player than look bad.

Galatasaray is the remaining option for Osimhen if he wants to stay on the pitch. It wasn't a bad choice as long as he didn't get stuck there forever. At least he still has the opportunity to play in this one season and if his performance is good, then he will have the opportunity to be noticed again by big European teams. However, if he fails to shine there, then he will not have many options next season and it is possible that he will really end up in Saudi Arabia.

I think his emotions could have been behind his decision.

For every decision a player makes, there's usually a reason for which they Carry out such at almost every point and the case of osimhen doesn't seem any different, he might have a reason which could be emotional and for some reasons I don't think it will be financial because he obviously had a very good offer from the Saudi,his heart has been to olay for an English team where he hopes to peak his career but since it couldn't come through for him, he went for a place where he could still win the English attention easily this is my taught thou, if maybe he had gone to the saudi league it's very possible he wouldn't have been getting English considerations again because his quality may likely drop while at the Saudi league but in Galatasaray, he's got some chances there after and it's a loan contract without a buy option so he's still got an opportunity which could be considered in the near future

I wish we didn't sell Kerem Aktürkoğlu to Benfica. But he wanted to take this opportunity. He could have also made lots of assists to Osimhen just as he did to Icardi until now.

Galatasaray would be using two strikers (Icardi & Osimhen). Martens probably assisted them from behind.

I'm not even feeling worried about Galatasaray's line-up now. And they don't really need to sign a new midfielder, they have Sara and Torreira who would be playing at mid. yet I can't deny they need to sign new wingers.

About Kerem Aktürkoğlu, sadly, he has agreed to a 4-year deal with Benfica. He was not keen on missing the momentum to improve his career. But it's also Galatasaray's fault; this was because they are trading him for a year's wage of a player(Osimhen). that is insane.

The duet between Osimhen and Mauro Icardi could be fantastic for Galatasaray because these players recognized as sharp striker and we all know Mauro Icardi is Galatasaray top scorer last season and people have already know about Osimhen because while playing for Napoli Osimhen can scores a lot of goals in Serie A but i think Galatasaray fans have to be patient if want to watching these players playing together because Mauro Icardi will be absense 4-6 week because got injured

I am not really following the development of Galatasaray but i have seen the manager has a habit sometimes in the particular matches Galatasaray playing with one striker and because Mauro Icardi still got injured so i assume the manager will playing Osimhen as centre striker before Mauro Icardi can fully recover and Galatasaray first match on League phase will fight against PAOK and on the paper Galatasaray is the favourite

He's a great addition to Galatasaray team but do I see them going very far in the UCL? Of course not.

I think Napoli will regret this decision of putting Osimhen in a higher market value and they are even lucky that they allowed him to go on loan to Galatasaray otherwise it would have been the club's loss because Osimhen will be benched by Antonio Conte and he will not be productive to the club till his contract terminates by the end of the season so if Osimhen didn't sign for a full season at Galatasaray then Napoli have to reduce his market clause so that he can be sold officially to any club that wants to sign him in this January transfer window and Napoli makes some cash from it. Now their decision have became a blessing to Galatasaray because adding Osimhen to their squad will boost the team's morale in the Europa league competition.

[Asiska02]

The part I love the most is that the first 8 goes straight to last 16, but the other 16 teams will play with each other for the other 8 places. The teams finishing 9th to 24th will be playing against each other for a chance to be at the last 16 places. In theory that means even if you finish 24th in the groups, you can still be in the last 16, and that makes everything so much more fun.

This Europa League is going to be as tough as we can ever imagine. So many opportunities for every team to find their place in the next round of the competition which is the knockout stage of the competition. If you don’t want to play more games and be qualified ahead of other teams and start preparations for the knockout stage, you have to finish at a very good position in the top 8 of the competition. I don’t know if similar things will be adopted in the champions league because as this new format is, we won’t be seeing teams from the Champions League participating in the Europa League if they fail to finish in a good position in the first round of the competition.

However, if he fails to shine there, then he will not have many options next season and it is possible that he will really end up in Saudi Arabia.

I still feels that Victor Osimhen's interest is in the English Premier League ,and would do everything within his powers to stay fit, so the need to joining Galatasaray became necessary, if Osimhen wanted to join the Saudi professional league, this a decision he would have been a decision he would had made earlier.

[Republikcoin.com]

Saudi? hmm I think it is not wise to go there, but that is where the money is for him to have a career, it's just not necessarily long-term because the Saudi league has not built its reputation too far, while going to Galatasaray is not a bad thing if we talk about reputation and it is also good enough to develop yourself, it's just that it can't be compared to the popularity of the league, the Italian league is much more popular.

Osimhen does need to improve his quality again. The injury made him get less attention and his performance became unstable and like before when Napoli dominated one season of the Serie A league.

If you look at the salary request requested by Osimhen to several teams, it is not unwise to go there because only the Saudi Arabian league is willing to pay him a big salary. Although for a career it is not the right step to decide to play in that league because Osimhen is still young enough to develop in Europe. But again he made a slightly more wrong decision moving to Galatasaray as a loan player and I think the league there only has a slightly better popularity rating compared to the Saudi Arabian League. Osimhen needs to improve his game if he wants to be a player targeted by other clubs next season and I have little doubt that he will be targeted by many clubs next season.

It's too early for him to go to the Saudi Pro League, because he's still quite young and it would be a shame if he spent time playing in a less competitive league. While in Europe he can continue to develop his abilities very well and in the future he can become a player who will be more valuable than he is now. In my opinion he should be able to lower his ego regarding the salary he wants, because not all teams will be willing to pay him, especially when they also have to pay a high price from Napoli who still owns Osimhen. In my opinion, his move to Galatasaray was only to get playing minutes, because his chances of getting enough playing minutes with Napoli have been slightly closed after Conte said he didn't really need Osimhen in his squad.
