That is what is unique about Manchester United's management and it seems like they have run out of coaching options. Even though there are still many experienced trainers out there and it's just a matter of how they convince these trainers. If later Graham Potter really becomes Manchester United coach then they will no longer be a big team in England or Europe. Not only will you be disappointed but the fans will be very angry if this really happens and maybe they will hold a large demonstration at Old Trafford to prosecute.

Graham Potter has proven his poor performance at Chelsea and Manchester United should not try the same thing that Chelsea has even given testimony about. I don't know if this is Manchester United's best plan and if they think Graham Potter is a savior then there really is something wrong with this club.

@Oluwa-btc at this stage as a Manchester United fan I’ll be happy to see Ten Hag go but at the same time I’m not sure if Potter can manage a club as big as Manchester United but if you’ll see he definitely has a good track record so maybe Sir Jim is taking a gamble here and I’m praying it just works. Also if he comes I’m keen to see which all player’s he decides to sell because this squad needs a massive clearance sale and if he doesn’t do that the he too will fail at this club.

Current market values of Victor Osimhen above 150 million euro and how possibility for Barcelona signing player with most expensive fees transfer not including with his payment salary 10 million euro per season during new contract agreement deal with Napoli. Barcelona financial most terrible until right now and they have tried to cut off many their player payment salary and how possibility will sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli.
Possibility teams have huge money for signing Victor Osimhen are Chelsea, Manchester United and Real Madrid but one month left before winter transfer window open not official bid offer for any teams interested for signing Osimhen from Napoli. Likely he will be with Napoli exactly until the end of this season and waiting the interested from Premier League or La Liga teams with give him and Napoli best bid offer.

He can play anywhere including Barcelona but the problem is can Barcelona sign Osimhen?
Seeing the situation that is happening now, I'm not even sure Barcelona can do that and spend more than 100 million just for a player unless with some syaeat such as installments or free transfer players that they have to think again because the salary burden that will be faced will be very large which we know that now they are still hampered by FFP because the cash flow is too over.

It does not mean to demean Barcelona's current condition but reflecting on the previous Raphinha case where Barcelona had problems with Leeds which even only a few months later the problem was resolved due to Barcelona's difficulty paying Raphinha in full this is the real answer that Barcelona's condition from a financial point of view is very difficult and now linking Osimhen with Barcelona in conditions like this could be a boomerang too even though the FFP threat is not too concerned because of some of the advantages Barcelona has but still they must also realize that their finances are still bad to bring Osimhen to Camp Nou.

Graham Potter? Giving jobs to English coaches that haven't managed a top side is stupid idea, and haven't won a trophy before, Graham Potter? What's even wrong with Manchester United? They want quick success but they can't back the manager? Both Liverpool and Manchester City backed them managers when they wanted the changes and upgrades. I'm disappointed with Manchester United I must say.

I saw the news and I was wondering this is the same manager that took Chelsea down below? There are rumours already about Erik Ten Hag being the next Borrussia Dortmund manager, I can't say completely.

I don't know if he is going to leave after this season, as I read in the news that he is going to sign a new contract at Napoli that is going to make him one of the highest paid player in the history of the club. I think osimhen should seek for fresh challenge elsewhere. If he sign the new contract which will be valid till 2026, then I think he will stay in Napoli beyond this season.

Considering the kind of treatment Victor Osimhen has received from Napoli in the last eight months, I don't think the Nigeria international will want to extend his contract with the club again. Last season, Osimhen's performance for the club was undoubtedly the best by any player as he numerous number of goals greatly contributed to the team's success last season but I was surprised when another player from the club win the Italian Serie A best player if the year. Again, earlier this season, there was a video in the club's official social media handle that made mockery of Victor Osimhen which he reacted to by deleting all his pictures with the club's kits on his Instagram account which the club is yet to apologise for till date. They've not celebrated the player as much as they were supposed to celebrate him and that's why I think he's surely gonna leave the club.


I want to believe that the news of Manchester United wanting to replace Erik Ten Hag with former Chelsea manager Graham Potter to be a joke because in my own opinion, Erik Ten Hag is a better manager than Graham Potter. Graham Potter did well with Brighton and Hove Albion which made Chelsea to bring him to Stamford Bridge but his performance with the London club last season I think disqualifies him from managing a big European club like Manchester United. The management of Manchester United must know that the club has not lived up to the expectations of their fans since 2013 that the club's most successful manager Alex Ferguson left the club and must go for a manager that'll bring them back to winning ways again if they eventually sack Ten Hag and not a manager like Graham Potter.

News or rumors stating that Manchester United would have new coach were very popular after their defeat to Bayern Munich in the final match of the group phase and for this failure, Ten Hag was the one person most to blame.
He has the potential to be replaced by another coach and there are also several names that have been linked as being able to replace his position as Manchester United coach in the future.
But it is not yet clear who will actually replace Ten Hag.

Is this joke?
Graham Potter failed with Chelsea in the Premier League and then Manchester United will bring him in as coach?
This will be the end of Manchester United if they really replace Ten Hag with Graham Potter, there will be no big achievements for Chelsea and if Manchester United really makes him their coach, it will destroy the squad for the future.
I think if it is true that Graham Potter replaced Ten Hag then in no more than two seasons Manchester United will be looking for new coach again and of course the setbacks could still be quite significant.

Honestly, I think he actually knows which players he actually wants. But he definitely cannot bring them because he does not have money. The money that he has right now is only enough to bring in players on loan. And even if he somehow manages a bit of money to spend on the transfer fee of a player, he will find it hard to actually register that player. So he has a lot of financial problems. That is probably the only reason why I will say that he is still bringing in good results. Otherwise, the type of performance that Barcelona is showing right now would definitely have been under some scrutiny.

Well i consider this a rumor but sometimes there's a truth in most rumors however if the rumors of Sir Jim targeting Graham Potter as a possible replacement are true, then i think he really has no plans of taking United back from their glory days, infact they'll be far from their glory days if it happens, because i see no reason why he'll replace an experienced coach, struggling to revive the club with one with little or no experience at all it would be so disappointing if it happens.

 Left for me i still believe Erik Ten Hag is the right man for the managerial role, despite the fact that he's struggling currently what he needs is overhauling his squad, and giving him the rightly financial backing to sign players that would suit the style of play he had at Ajax which prompted United board to sign him, currently Manchester United ís undergoing a serious injury crisis and they'll get it hot at Anfield in their next EPL game, with the absent of their captain.

Here we go, manchester united has been linked to the someone who potentially to be a new coach   Im very glad to see that sir jim ratcliffe has been making a fast movement for manchester united. he thought that if united needs to be refreshed by replacing the current coach which was eredivise centric coach with a better coach. As reported by goal of sir jim has been contacting him and he was willing to recruit him as a new coach for manchester united.


Yeah he is GRAHAM POTTER. This is amazing to see that how sir jim was targeting a new coach that has never achieved anything during his career as a professional coach. I don't even agree with this shit.
Sir him has a mission to destroy manchester united by changing it with garbage coach like potter. Yet there is still a guarantee if potter can change the club to be even better but it's pretty small though.

It's very bad to see that and i consider this as a degrade for manchester united.

Is Victor Osimehn happy in Italy? If you ask me I would say Last season he was so happy but i can’t say the same this season, Napoli’s performance has dropped drastically and it has affected his performance as well as Kvaraschehlia’s and the scandal that happened also contributed a lot to all this. He might have forgiven then but how certain are we that they won’t repeat the same thing when things turn out bad again in the future. When he makes his decision we will know if he is happy in Italy and if he still wants to stay and fight for the club. The offer is very tempting but i hope he makes the right decision for himself

I think Osimhen could even play for Barca instead of Lewandowski, who is out of form. Of course, he has said before that his dream is the Premier League. Therefore, Chelsea or Manchester United can be considered as teams where he can be more successful. I think he will leave Napoli at the end of the year.

Chelsea really needs a striker who has good potential like Victor Oshimen, but it doesn't seem easy for Chelsea to recruit this player, even though Victor Oshimen liked the Chelsea club when he was little, that doesn't mean that Victor Oshimen currently wants to join Chelsea, and what is certain is that Victor Oshimen more concerned with their football career, Indeed, the Premier League is a big league, but Chelsea cannot compete with other clubs who have a better mentality, while Chelsea no longer has a good mentality in the EPL.

Apart from needing a striker, Chelsea also needs a defender. In my opinion, Chelsea back line is quite weak and their defensive system is also bad. I think Chelsea needs to change players who have better potential and Pochettino have to think about that.

---

Napoli will definitely make various efforts to retain this important players and perhap by providing a large salary will allow Victor Oshimen to stay at Napoli longer and will make it impossible for any club to buy this player easily unless Napoli intend to sell him.

Giorgio Chiellini has confirmed that he has retired from football and this is indeed the right time for him to hang up his boots. He retired at the age of 39 and as one of the best defenders ever, he was an important leader for the Italian national team and also Juventus in the past decade. Giorgio Chiellini is a legend and a great example for the next generation of Italian football.

Since he was at the Juventus academy, he never changed clubs and only strengthened Juventus until his old age. But in one season, he finally left the club that had made his name and joined LA Galaxy for one final season. Until in the end he decided to retire at an earlier time. Well, good luck on his next trip and I think he will take another important part later at Juventus.

What moment do you remember about Giorgio Chiellini? For me, that time when Luis Suarez bit his shoulder and Giorgio Chiellini looked very angry because of the ridiculous behavior that Luis Suarez did at that time.

Christopher Nkunku will soon be back and Chelsea might have the strong attacking force it deserves. Victor Osimhen will be a perfect striker for Chelsea but I think the club should check if the French striker will put up a good performance after his recovery. The only impediment to Chelsea signing the Nigerian striker is FA financial regulation, aside from that, the club can afford to get him.

The ball is in the court of Victor, he might decide to extend his contract or leave for another club. He recently stated that he has put his issues with Napoli behind him and that he has forgiven them for the insult he received on their social media platform. If he is still happy in Italy, I think he would sign a new deal, otherwise, he might consider leaving because many clubs can give him a more lucrative contract than what he would be offered by Napoli.

Visible or not Chelsea desperately needs a striker and not just any striker a world class striker, the whole club is aware of this already and they are considering a lot of strikers though but the Nigerian forward will definitely suit Chelsea better. If Osimhen really wants to leave and Chelsea has enough money to buy him then it will be a done deal even though it will not be easy as it seems.

I Just saw an update from Fabrizio Romano stating that Victor Osimehn is about to be handed a new contract which will make him one of the highest earning players in the history of the team and new deal will be valid till 2026. This is sad news for Chelsea if Osimhen signs this contract because it will be even more difficult to sign him to Chelsea.

Personally he remains a top lad and has done well for the club from last season to this one. There are games you watch and you see how most of his mates are selfish to pass him to ball to score. I agree with your opinions but it all results from the problems within the club, the entire squad have seen a recent drop in form.

They be wanting to extend his contract for a year further, I feel like that's a strategy to increase his value, since he's been rumoured to leave the club. I see they want to make good fortune from his sale because his current worth is worrying as his performance dropped in Seria A.

There's no denying that the financial situation is a headache for Barca and coach Xavi. However, achieving good results with limited finances speaks volumes about Xavi's coaching prowess. It's not always about spending big money on buying; look at what teams like Man United and Chelsea have achieved despite their significant spending? Quality players are crucial, but I believe what matters most is building a distinctive style of play. Xavi is doing this quite well, and I have confidence that it will only get better if he continues with this football philosophy.

When Xavi has perfected Barca's style of play, he will know the players the team truly needs. At that point, if Barca's financial issues are resolved, I believe Barca will come back very strong. The emphasis should be on building a unique identity and gameplay, and once that foundation is solid, the right players can be identified to enhance the team. Financial constraints don't always limit success; it's often about smart management and a clear footballing philosophy, something Xavi seems to be instilling at Barca.

Barcelona is still on the way to recruiting the new striker but the financial trouble has become the main problem that was preventing barcelona to recruit the top striker. I have heard some names even haaland being linked to the barcelona but im not even believing it.
In my understand if barcelona doesn't have good financial problem at this moment and how can barcelona buy haaland's release clause? barcelona has been linked to the more names and the latest one was greenwood. I have heard that greenwood has been linked to the barcelona.
It has reported by several legit sources if barcelona is still monitoring him at this moment. It's possible for barcelona to recruit him as a new striker. Barcelona is still very good enough to recruit him as a new striker,.
Greenwood's price is not that expensive too. The main problem owned by barcelona to search for the best striker at this moment. I hope greenwood will be going to the barcelona.

I hope that barcelona is really having interest to recruit him soon. Greenwood was not that good but consider his price is quite cheap and he was experienced enough makes me think that if barcelona will buy him to be a new striker.
