Manchester United wants to sell Maguire in January

Manchester United for this reason cut the price for the player who is 31 now.

This is bad news. But, i know, it's Manchester United's right to cut a player over 30, like Maguire. But, it's crazy to ignore his stats. This is because Maguire and Lindelof's duet is among the best in history. They have a very low goals conceded per game.

It looks very irrational to get rid him of the club. Okay, he made lots of mistakes, but he was slowly progressing to the right way.

IF Haaland leave where do you think he will go? Barca?

Barca has no money to pay Haaland, and it is impossible for them to get him.

Manchester United for this reason cut the price for the player who is 31 now.
Norway forward Erling Haaland may leave Manchester City and he will not joining Paris St-Germain, this news is originally from Spain.
Manchester City could go for goalkeeper Diogo Costa from Porto.


IF Haaland leave where do you think he will go? Barca?

Harry Maguire has been great for Manchester United this season despite his double errors against Brighton and maybe Twente, but I still feel like he's done more harm to Manchester United than he has done good. I do think it's a wise decision to see him leave whenever they want to. Jarred Braithwathe from Everton would be a great replacement. I'm sure Barcelona fans are already having the fantasies of having Erling Halland playing for them. I don't see them making a potential move until Robert Lewandoski is already gone. As per Diogo Costa, he is a staunch Man Utd fan, but playing for City would be great. Barcelona hell yeah, Pep Guadiola would want that too.

Despite ending the 2023/24 season with impressive performance, Arda Guler is still struggling to become a regular player in Ancelotti squad because he lost out to other senior players. Especially after the arrival of Mbappe and Endrick, his chances of getting playing minutes are very small. In my opinion, Real Madrid should use his natural talent as a long-term investment. It would be better if Guler is loaned to another club so that he can get regular playing time to hone his talent. This move will greatly benefit Real Madrid in the future.

He just hasn't gotten a regular playing position in the team, but Ancelotti still plays him in certain matches and even though he comes off the bench. The tight competition makes him lose the opportunity to play regularly because in that position there are several other players who are much better in quality than him. If Real Madrid gives him the opportunity to play at another club as a loan player, it would be much better so that he can continue to hone his talent.

But so far there has been no further discussion regarding Arda's loan status and maybe Ancelloti is still considering playing him when he wants to rotate. For a long-term position, perhaps taking advantage of his loan would be much better because Arda is still quite young and has a long career ahead of him.

I believe usually sophomore wall is true for almost any player. When you have your first ever rookie season at a big club like this at a young age, you are not expected to do anything, not by your team, not by the opponents, so whatever you do ends up being a bit of a great addition to what was expected, which was nothing.

Sophomore year the team knows what you are capable of doing, and opponents knows who you are, so you have harder time to adjust to playing with that much pressure, usually ends not so great. This is where the real stars are born, if you can overcome this season, third season is even harder because you focus on going over that hump and be great, and fourth season you become amazing and start to play almost every game.

Most players handle these at other clubs, like Jude came in here ready, Mbappe too, all because they played their big club seasons at other teams, but Arda got his start here, sort of like Vini, who spent years training to be who he is.

[coinlocket$]

Of course to Manchester United because Manchester is Red!

Usually when players of this caliber move from a top-level team they try to go to another league.
The other possible destinations are

Spain, but Real Madrid has too many high-level players in attack already
Barcelona but they have economic problems,

France but PSG is now in decline
Italy has no money

He could go to Germany to Bayern.

Klopp has hinted at it in his interview about his decision to resign as Liverpool's manager. He's looking for a job that gives him less pressure. He had been coaching Liverpool for 8 years, and it wasted a lot of his energy. And it's a good deal for him.

But, i feel very disappointed with some people who complained about his decision. He didn't owe anyone anything. He was free to do whatever he wanted. But, if i were a Dortmund fan, I'd be so upset with it. 

Klopp did a great job at Liverpool, I think the fans were not ready to see him resign at the time. I think they still miss him, but the blow has been softened since the new manager Arne Slot is proving to be a suitable replacement. I personally miss Klopp entertaining energy….shouting at officials and players from the sidelines. 

I can understand the complains of the Liverpool fans, but Dortmund? They are in the business of selling players for profit, they don’t deserve Klopp.

[Polkeins]

I read Paul Pogba is considering a move to Inter Miami or the Saudi Pro League. Paul Pogba is a talented midfielder but he hasn’t played professional football for more than a year, I don’t think top clubs in Europe would be interested in signing him when his ban expires. His best shot at playing professional football is accepting a move to Saudi or MLS.

Actually 2 years basically with he injury he got.
I think his career is over at high level.

Glad to be wrong about him, but you right I doubt too that any big Euro team wants him in their club.

Who wants a player over 30 that is not playing for 2 year in a competitive environment with a big salary? noone.

Last year Pogba was suspended due to doping and if Pogba trained himself on an individual program during that time, he has a chance to come back.
We can remember David De Hea, who after almost 2 years got a very good contract from Fiorentina and became the highest paid player at the club.
Of course it is easier for a goalkeeper to come back than a midfielder, but Pogba has talent and if he has the strength to fight, I think he can do it in Marseille, but I think that more than 2-3 million euros a year and a contract for a year is the maximum that Marseille can probably offer him.

Oh great news!    I just find Maguire's time with Manchester United horrible. Nothing more. He was a way better defender before he joined them.

Manchester United just made a crazy offer and it became one of the worst deals ever in team history.

Norway forward Erling Haaland may leave Manchester City and he will not joining Paris St-Germain, this news is originally from Spain.
Manchester City could go for goalkeeper Diogo Costa from Porto.


IF Haaland leave where do you think he will go? Barca?

As far as I know, Haaland is offered a new contract and he wanted to accept it with the condition of having a release clause.

https://www.eurosport.com/football/transfers/2024-2025/erling-haaland-release-clause-barcelona-real-madrid_sto20035422/story.shtml

The source talks about Real Madrid too but I don't think it makes sense. They already have Mbappe and I don't think it would be the dream if they get Haaland too. They might get regretful in case of having disagreements. I think Haaland could join Barcelona if he leaves. As long as they are able to meet his demands financially though.    It would be an amazing replacement for Lewandowski.

[Furious 7]

IF Haaland leave where do you think he will go? Barca?

It's tough even if Barcelona pushes itself
If this is still possible, Barcelona needs to sell a lot of players in order to balance the financial situation because in the end Barcelona's problem every season in the last few seasons is financial so bringing Haaland with a value of 200 million at this time and with a high salary of course it is tantamount to suicide for Barcelona.



This season they have been struggling a bit to get Dani Olmo on the player register let alone Haaland. Unless they get a very large injection of funds that are able to cover their debts and are able to stabilize the cash they currently have, maybe this will happen.

But seriously, if something like this happens, Halaand vs Mbappe will become the new rivalry that everyone hopes for lol.

Wow. This is actually my first time of coming across such rumor that tuchel was already agreeing a deal with England. I follow Fabrizio alot, but I don't think I've come across the information, if he actually posted it, which I'm not sure. But I really doubt if England are willing to employ a German manager. Regardless, I think he will do well if he eventually gets the job. There are quality players and even squad depth in the England national team, which I believe tuchel will make a good use of. If I remembered correctly, there is this 3-4-3 arrangement I always see while he was at Chelsea, and that formation brought out some good players like Reece james, because tuchel make good use of his wing backs.

But we all will be waiting to see what he can offer in 2026 and beyond (if possible), if eventually he gets the job.

Yes it still is kind of a rumor as far as I know, but the reason you provided, which says that England is not willing to employ a manager from Germany, seems to be wrong to me. England has had Sven-Göran Eriksson from 2000 - 2006, who is from Sweden and they had Fabio Capello from 2008 - 2012.  That's ten out of 24 years since the year 2000 when England employed a coach from abroad.

I don't they would pay particular attention to the nationality if they are convinced they found the right guy. Keep in mind that Tuchel has been a coach for a Premier League club already, so the point that Tuchel could have problems to adapt and so on doesn't apply here.

But the deal isn't yet signed and while I think the rumor has some truth to it, we still got to be patient.

[junder]

However, currently what is being widely rumored is Thomas Tuchel who will replace Southgate in the England national team coaching chair because the English Football Association wants to immediately bring in a new coach after interim coach Lee Carsley gave disappointing results against Greece in the national league.


source; Thomas Tuchel in further negotiations with England regarding the manager position.

I don’t think Thomas Tuchel is the best manager for England. Manchester United fans would not even consider him as a replacement for Erik Ten Hag whom they believe is one of the worst manager Manchester United has had since Alex Ferguson. Someone called Tuchel a failed manager at Chelsea and Bayern Munich. I’m surprised that England national team have gone this far in negotiations with Tuchel. The fact that he is German  and is being considered for such an important position shows that they are not xenophobic but again is Tuchel the best option for England? 

For now, we cannot judge whether the coaching chair is right or not in Tuchel's grasp and who knows what kind of changes Thomas Tuchel will bring to the England National Team in the future if the current agreement is realized. But what is certain is that the English association has considered the step of recruiting the German coach by looking at the decline in performance currently experienced by the England National Team, if we refer to all that, this should be the right step, especially since the only one available right now is Thomas Tuchel because if he has to wait for Pep Guardiola, he is still under contract with Man City.
We'll see later whether he is able to maximize the players who can currently be said that the England National Team has talented players and break your doubts.

Salah has said more than once that this season at Liverpool will be his last, and there were suggestions that he could continue his career in Saudi Arabia, but today I saw that since he is in great shape, Real Madrid is also interested in him. Since his contract ends in the summer of 2025, he can start negotiations with other teams in January. Salah is still one of the leaders of Liverpool's attack, who scores goals, I think that Salah's absence will be noticeable for the team, I would like to hear what Slot thinks about this. Or maybe Nunez will get more playing time, or Liverpool will look for a replacement for him in the transfer market.

The news is that Mohamed Salah will be extended for another season but I don't know if this news will come true? This is what I read a few days ago.
Finding players like Mohamed Salah is difficult and Liverpool need time to find such skills, therefore Liverpool must be prepared to lose in the future because after all Salah will get older and his performance will decline.
Maybe the decision is in the hands of Mohamed Salah and Arne Slot as manager will advise which is the best.

The main issue and bone of Contention between Liverpool and Mohamed Salah has to do with his weekly wage which is huge that is why the club don't want to trigger a long term contract for him, the board is aware about his age which is +30 thus trade with caution with regard to his contract, of course he would never accept a paycut to secure a long term contract he would leave for a Saudi Arabian club where a more lucrative offer would be guaranteed and Liverpool would grant any good price to pay for his release to any of the Saudi Arabian club

He may be ageing, but Salah is still in top physical shape. So he will definitely be able to play another year, but they should look for a new player early and not come up with it at the last minute.

In general, however, I think that teams should concentrate much more on their youth players and buy fewer players. Maybe it would even be cool if the purchase limits were drastically reduced and the teams were forced to invest more in young players.

Frenkie de Jong is still not fully recovered... And he is making tons of money which is going up to 25 million euros a year with bonuses. He said that people were wrong and he was actually making much less than that but I don't know.

Isn't it bad to pay this injury-prone player this much money?    I mean he is talented okay but he can't play regularly during a season. The team can't get enough efficiency from him comparing to the money he earns. While Barcelona is trying to raise funds, I think they should consider selling him or cutting his salary seriously.

Hmmmm... What are you talking about  
Barcelona voluntarily signed a contract with him and are obliged to fulfill it, if they want to break/change it, then they either pay a penalty or negotiate with the player (it is naive to think that he will reduce his salary). They also cannot sell him without his consent.
By the way, what do you think about Olmo? Look at his injury history

Or maybe Nunez will get more playing time, or Liverpool will look for a replacement for him in the transfer market.

I wasn't even expecting Moh Sallah to still remain in Liverpool this season due to speculation and rumor going on then towards the ed of last season that he will leave Liverpool for Saudi Arabian team which I don't know which team in particular, but before the beginning of the season when Arne Slot take over from Jurgen Klopp, he said that he will play additional one season before taking his leave, this has shown that he has passion for the club because he has some amazing memories, and will also not want the team in that same condition it was towards the end of last season.
The performance Liverpool is displaying this season might keep him till the end of the season, because if he leaves now, it will not be proper since he is part of the project and their team is performing very well because they are currently leading the premier league table and can win the title because they have good squad and Arne Slot is doing his best.

It looks very irrational to get rid him of the club. Okay, he made lots of mistakes, but he was slowly progressing to the right way.

Lindelof and Maguire's performance is sometimes difficult to guess which makes the situation difficult. It is undeniable that when they can reach their best performance, Manchester United will still be very strong on the field but the problem is that their performance is erratic which actually makes their conditions begin to lose confidence to be in the main line up.

We know how blunders Maguire always made in the past few seasons in the De Gea era when he was still the goalkeeper which makes this a consideration even though it cannot be denied that when he became a substitute sometimes there were some situations that were actually beneficial because of Maguire's presence in the squad.
At the moment his contract is almost over and I think rather than forcing it for Maguire it will be more worth it to let go of this player because he doesn't really fit the defense and pattern of Manchester United so he leaves and Manchester United are looking for new player options for the same position.

Yes I agree with you. Klopp is one of the best coaches in Primer League history he made a history for Liverpool by winning the UEFA champions league title. Liverpool have been looking for a decade to win a trophy like the UCL and Klopp did it in 2019. The most interesting point was when Liverpool made a comeback against Barcelona in the UCL and reached the final and won the UCL title by defeating Tottenham 2-0. The credibility of all these contributions goes to Klopp. Apart from this, the domestic cup has also been won along with the primary league win. So made Liverpool a great club and when it was time to leave the club, the fan did not want a great coach like Klopp to leave the club. But Klopp did what was best for him. He is tired of doing heavy duty for last 8 years. So Klopp left Liverpool after that. 

Fan was not happy because he was losing one of the best coach. And how would they agree with Klopp to leave the club because Klopp once again made Liverpool one of the best clubs. So I think that's why fans were angry with Klopp in the end.

AFAIK.
Haaland actually have a release cluase in his contract with Manchester City but we do not know the amount.
There are not much teams that can afford his salary.

One of them is for sure Real Madrid but I can't see him playing with Mbappè.
Barca is the obvious counterpart.

IF Haaland leave where do you think he will go? Barca?

BBC always have something coming from Manchester United, I don’t think it is anything secret that Manchester United had actually been willing to sell off maguire all the summer when they signed the two new center backs, Maguire had actually been the reluctant person and wants to stay at Manchester United and fight for his place and that’s why we are still seeing him around,West Ham were all bent on him and Scott McTominay then. Right now in don’t see Manchester United actually allowing him leave this January although they might lose him for free next summer but it will be a huge risk for them to actually allow him leave at the moment. Most of their players are are injured with the return dates all unknown for now with most of them still out it will be unthinkable that they will allow Maguire to leave this January, around the summer I don’t rule out the move but definitely not this winter transfer.

Two Manchester city news, the goal keeper case is actually not a surprise it was crystal clear last goalkeeper Ederson wants to leave and even had almost agree with Al Nasrr then before actually didn’t allow the keeper to leave. Now it is only logical for them to actually look for backup and Diogo costa is a good option.

The Halaand saga will even be complicated because I don’t see him leaving unless Pep is no longer there. As for the destination only Madrid has that capacity now to do the deal

Progress is a process. Players that are aging are consider lesser when it comes to their market price. These players lose instant value the moment they clock 30 and above, and I ask why? Are you curious to know? Due to the current phase of football, these elite clubs are likely to go for players that are young, we're talking about players that are talented, they are prominent for the promising future of an elite club. You wouldn't blame the club for taking such drastic decisions because they've implemented structures that will served better. Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea are all going for young players this season and when they succeed in signing these players, these clubs ensure the players signed longterm contract.
