BTC, a coin of today and tomorrow.
This is certainly good news for Paul Pogba who will be back on the pitch, starting to train early in the year with Juventus and his official match in March as Fabrizio said.

Previous news said Juventus would terminate the contract for not contributing anything including the drug scandal problem.

Pogba is still often injured.
Pogba will not play long at Juventus there is a possibility of being sold in the winter.
He is old, will not have great acrobatics anymore on the field, maybe he will go to a small team.

I also saw this today yeah. It really seems like pretty much official.

But the thing I don't get is, how?  Huh  Wasn't he punished for 4 years because of doping? Why has the verdict on him changed all of a sudden? I don't think this is fair if they are breaking the law.

But if this change is legal then no problem. Pogba is returning but I still doubt his future. He is already injury-prone, yeah. I don't think he can have a full season without injuries. Therefore I believe he won't be very beneficial for Juventus anyway.
Every individual player has their strength and as well as their weaknesses. Some are loved by many yet hated by few. Some are hated by many loved by few. But Paul Pogba is a kind of player that an honest football speculator is not supposed to hate. Although at a certain time in his career he was a kind of careless about his career, when he became injury prone and report had it that some of the injuries were not actually on the football pitch rather on other sports such as basketball.

But at every time he plays with his heart, he was actually a joy to watch. I am not much interested to know how his ban was lifted, but I am happy that we will get to watch him again, atleast for one or two seasons.

United will remain a mystery as everyone expects them to perform tomorrow and yet everyone knows they could fail tomorrow. It has been the same now for a while and can it be expected that they will change? Smiley I guess we agree that they will mess up every once in a while and they won't be competing for the PL title for a very long time.

They were lucky to escape defeat in this match thanks to a goal scored by Harry Maguire in the 90th minute. Initially I was quite sure they would lose again after the last 10 minutes they were still behind and it was made worse by their players also having to receive red cards so they played with only 10 men, but the goal that the supporters were eagerly awaiting happened in the added minutes.
Right now they are not a team with a winning mentality like before, they are a team that is struggling to get out of difficult times. What is even stranger is that they still trust Erik Ten Hag, even though he has not been able to show anything that could be a hope.
Despite being reduced to a team of 10, the fact that they came back brilliantly with goals at the end is really admirable, but other than this, there is nothing new to say about Manchester United. You said this team doesn't play with a winning mentality, you said that from your opinion and another person will have a different opinion about this team and I also have my own opinion about this team's performance. That is, the performance of this team has now reached a stage where watching their game, it does not seem that they are playing to win. If there were no good quality players in this team, maybe there would not be so much discussion or criticism about the team. There are good players in this team and if these players can be sold to another club then a lot of money will be available, still Manchester United can't do well with such a good team but it's the manager's failure.

After the severe injury on his knee for Bremer according to some rumors Juventus may go for Sergio Ramos right now since it is still a free agent.
For not it is only a rumor, they can also promote some young defender as reserve player from the u23 team.

Time will tell.
It is unfortunate that he had to suffer an ACL injury even though his performance so far at Juventus has been very luxurious because he is one of Motta's key players at the moment but indeed he must be absent for a long time even if you look at the duration of time it looks like he will not play again until this season ends due to the injury he experienced.

Bringing Sergio at this time may still be an option for rotation players because even though Sergio's current age is quite old but if this is intended as a rotation player then I think it will not be a serious problem especially Serie A can also still be the destination of several old players so this is possible can still happen, it's just that if in the end there are academy players who have good enough progress to debut in the senior team then of course it will be much more worth it because they apart from closing the gap of losing Bremer indirectly they are also regenerating for long-term plans.

Maybe in the match Juventus beat Leipzig dramatically with a score of 3-2. Center back Gleison Bremer suffered a serious injury. The match ended early for the Brazilian player in the 6th minute. I saw him fall to the ground in pain without colliding with anyone. The absence of Gleison Bremer until the end of the season will certainly greatly affect Juventus' strength. Other names that can play as central defenders at Juventus such as Pierre Kalulu, Federico Gatti, Danilo, or Juan Cabal cannot bring the same peace of mind as Gleison Bremer.

Sergio Ramos could be a lifesaver for Juventus right now. Although Ramos is on the other side of his career. But his experience and class are proven. These could be temporary solutions that Juventus can consider with the winter transfer window still nearly 3 months away. If Ramos joins Turin, Ramos will be playing in the third major European tournament of his career at the age of 38.



While Gleison Bremer is an effective player of Juventus, he got injured hard and lost the whole season they had to find another player to fill his place in the team to make sure their team would not be damaged and considering the situation and the time they have, Juventus won't have many options while Juventus was always known for their perfect defenders.
As you said Sergio Ramos is currently linked to Juventus however he hasn't played for any time since June and after leaving Sevilla he preferred to stay without a team and this made Ramos an option for Motta however since he is getting old and he didn't play any games I don't spect to see good performance from Ramos.

yes I was wrong about the fact that Messi is the problem at PSG, I wrote it wrong, I meant to say that a return of Neymar to Barcelona could change the impression that people have on him who was Messi's eternal shadow, because let's face it that's how it is...
Leo Messi was the major problem of Paris Saint-Germain? No  I don't think so because Les Parisiens are keen on making prominent signings of big names, the board completely forget about making tactical changes of the coach. When an elite club that anticipates in farmer's league, where there's absolutely presence of competitive opposition for the league title, what do you expect from such player when they play the UEFA Champions League? Ofcourse they will record poor stats.

What's all these trends we're reading on the news about the possible return of Neymar Jr to Barcelona. Is this true or some random football transfer news pulled by journalists and bloggers just for traffic on their page? Neymar Jr have returned to training with effective stats, he's probably the best player in the club but yet to make any solid contributions to the progress of the club. Al Hilal can do without the presence of the Brazilian because he's vulnerable to crucial long-term injuries. However we're yet to see the best of Neymar in Al Hilal jersey but we hope for the quick recovery of the player.

It seems like it will just be a rumor that will not come true. Neymar used to be known as a star player with extraordinary talent. But unfortunately his current situation is not the same as before and everyone, even Barcelona fans, know how Neymar's current condition is that he can no longer be relied on. And if Neymar rejoins Barcelona, it will have a negative impact again because Barcelona has to pay the salary of a player who is often absent due to injury like Neymar.

Right, I agree with you. Currently Barcelona already has a complete player in the squad so there is no reason to bring Neymar back especially as you said, Neymar will burden the club's finances, no elite club in Europa wants to take the risk of paying high salaries but is vulnerable to injury. Neymar was very lucky because Al-Hilal did not end his contract because their first target is not the game activity but because of exposure.

As an old player I think Al-Hilal will be his last club before returning to the Brazilian League, when the contract ended at Al-Hilal Neymar was 33 years old this means that is the ideal time for retirement. The scenario can be different if Al-Hilal extends his contract until 2030.
Neymar Denies Rumors of Returning to Barcelona
Neymar firmly said that he will stay at Al Hilal, and he feels happy there. Meanwhile, Neymar is still worthy of playing in the top five European Leagues, but his condition which is prone to injury raises concerns for clubs interested in him. Regarding high salary, that can change in the negotiation stage between the parties, but of course only a few clubs dare to do it. If Neymar leaves Saudi, and wants to continue his career in Europe again, Serie A is more suitable for him in my opinion.
Eventually, as long as Neymar is still under contract with Al Hilal, all rumors about him cannot be believed, because the player has stated his wishes for now. What is clear at this time is that everyone is waiting for the player to make a comeback after a long absence due to an ACL injury.

Very much official, Fabrizio can't frame such post, good tidings for the footballer and retrieving back his carrier. A long pause for the player with a total of 18 months ban which he already gone through a year plus and left with few months, now he will be able to kick off a new season joining a team or even same club before his ban.

No fully disclosure yet on why the longevity of the punishment's was reduced, i'm sure he already learnt his mistake from here, same with every other players who intend to take part in dealing with drugs.

I don't see no problem returning to the club, even though he doesn't, i bet there are as much club willing to sign the player, we can take a look at what happened to Greenwood, now with a fresh club and he is currently having his best time in his new club.

Regarding Neymar Jr's possible return to Barcelona, it's hard to predict. Like you mentioned, he left Barcelona mainly not to be under Lionel Messi's shadow. However, with Messi now at Paris Saint Germain, the dynamics would be different should he return. Also, a player's comfort and happiness are important and should be considered as well. He has indeed been plagued by injuries recently so that's another factor to take into account.
Chelsea situation involving Ben Chilwell, it's true that he's a valuable player. His versatility is indeed an asset, but consistent injuries can be a major hindrance. Under the guidance of Enzo Maresca, it would be interesting to see how he fits in once he fully recovers.


By the way Messi is now in MLS.
Personally I doubt that Neymar will return to Barcelona to help them after his contract ends with Al Hilal, because does Barcelona really want him back? I have not received any definite news about it, especially with the injury that is still a problem for him, it will definitely be a consideration for Barcelona, ​​because the risk will be very big.
Just imagine, now Barcelona still has problems with their finances, and when Neymar returns to them with the risk of injury then it will be another burden for them. Now Al Hilal with their stable finances complains because their players do not give them anything. Moreover, if Barcelona feels it, they will definitely be confused by it, so once again I doubt that Neymar will return to Barcelona.

yes I was wrong about the fact that Messi is the problem at PSG, I wrote it wrong, I meant to say that a return of Neymar to Barcelona could change the impression that people have on him who was Messi's eternal shadow, because let's face it that's how it is...

Who has missed  Paul Pogba's absence from football action?

Well, Fabrizio has it that According to top journalist Tariq Panja, there are suggestions that “his four year doping ban has been drastically reduced on appeal”.

After already serving a year or so of his sanction, thier are speculation that he might be back in the next season. If this happens, it's going to be great having him back even though he's 31.
Was going to post about Pobga but saw this post.

Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are said to heal in six to nine months, according to some medical reports. The Brazilian international will require surgery, and it is unclear when he will be back. Lucas Beraldo has already been called up by the Brazilian national team to take Gleison Bremer's place for the upcoming matches against Chile and Peru. Juventus will also need to find a replacement, and Juan Cabal, Federico Gatti, and Pierre Kalulu might be suitable choices.

In addition to Sergio Ramos, Juventus is also thinking about replacing the outstanding defender with Joel Matip, Simon Kjaer, and Konstantinos Manolas. Ramos may have experience, but he may be at a disadvantage due to his age and inaction. The legendary player from Real Madrid has declined offers from the US Major League and Saudi Arabia, stating his desire to go back to Europe.

With the recent streak of poor results, it looks like the news of Erik Ten Hag’s sack will be announced anytime. Last night’s result just adds up to list of poor results this season. I can’t believe Manchester United threw away a two goal lead in the first half against a tough opponent like Porto and it didn’t even take up to the second half for Porto to equalize but just before half time whistle, this is disappointing even for Manchester United. Van Nistelrooy has been rumored to be a potential replacement for Erik Ten Hag. Manchester United has gone through a series of managerial changes, can Van Nistelrooy be the change the club needs?
News monitoring when there is a possibility of Erik Ten Hag's dismissal then the radar list is Tuchel and Allegri this is according to some media sources, so Nistelrooy will have no chance for that maybe he will be an assistant.

It is rumored that the owner of Man United will be present at the match against Aston Villa if he loses there is still a possibility that the dismissal will be faster with the situation continuing to deteriorate and Erik Ten Hag cannot save the club anymore.

I think Tuchel will be the strongest candidate as his replacement.

If Wirtz wanted to go where would he choose the team? Or will he stay with Leverkusen?

Wirtz's future scenario:
Suppose he chooses Arsenal and this will be a priority as you said then when he is at Arsenal he will find it difficult to get trophies with the Gunners, even though this team is in top form they are still difficult to reach the top.

Maybe De Bruyne will stay one more season... Next summer there is a possibility of him leaving for Arabia.
Then Wirtz can get the position De Bruyne left behind.
Winning the Premier League trophy with Manchester City is still very possible for him.
I am sure that Wirtz with Arsenal could win some cups without a doubt. First of all, KDB is getting older, and there are some other players getting older at City too, and they won so much, eventually they will become better and better but first they need to get worse with the current squad and start to replace some players, maybe even Pep will leave, in that case things will change for Gunners and they will start to win some cups without a doubt, we are going to see them do very fine in the end. I know Arsenal hasn't won anything yet, but they may win now, this season, or if they don't and add Wirtz next season, then they may win next season.

Adding a superstar always makes teams better, and they are so close to city already, so having Wirtz may make it better. Plus, Wirtz would be making 20+ million a year for sure, Arsenal can afford that, and we are going to see him play for a team that is trying to with EPL, that is a good dream for any player.

I think that Nistelrooy should be given a chance and let's see if he can bring changes to the club and improve the team's performance because to me, I think that we have seen the best of Ten Hag and there is nothing more that he can offer to improve the club's performance, otherwise, he would have done so especially this time that there is a lot of criticize on him. Some clubs were able to change their coaches and they are doing fine, so why don't Manchester United do the same.

He was a great player for them but not wanting to be under the shadows of Lionel Messi finally saw him leaving Barcelona for Paris Saint Germany. Barcelona are reported to be linked with a return of their former star player when his current contract runs out at the end of the season.

I marveled at the question "Do y'all envisage a return to Barcelona from Neymar?" Maybe he'll return to Barcelona to work with the club's management but definitely not as a player because at the moment, Neymar Jr's fitness level can't compete in the Spanish La Liga coupled with the fact that he's very prone to injuries so, I don't see that happening if he's to as a footballer.

I agree with you cause I wonder what an injury  proned Neymar that's gained lots of weight and not in his prime would offer Barcelona, are they going to bench the current young players that are developing well for a player that's close to his retirement days I don't think so and I think Oluwa-btc could be right to say that he'll be back in the management team and not as a player. Imagine keeping a player like Rafinha on the bench for Neymar I don't think that's something Hansi Flick would even consider and I feel Barcelona would be adding more problems to their team due to Neymar's injury proned state, a player that's only featured for Al-Hilal only 5 times since he got to the Saudi League, he not currently the player he was when he played for Barcelona so bringing him back is a big risk and it's not something Barcelona's transfer team should consider, except he's coming back to the club as a part of the managers team.

Barcelona are interested in Neymar because they have financial problems. If they didn't have financial problems, they wouldn't be interested in a player with constant injury problems. Neymar is a good alternative for Barcelona. On the other hand, Barcelona are a good alternative for Neymar. He's 32 years old. And he is not in his prime. He is unlikely to get an offer from a better team than Barcelona. But if he transfers to Barcelona, I don't think he'll be able to create good memories. Maybe he will be an anchor player who comes in later in the game. I don't think he can do much more.
Currently there are several rumors that do associate Barcelona with Neymar, reportedly Laporta wants to bring back Neymar who may be free to transfer next season and this step was taken of course with a lot of considerations that they think, from a commercial point of view, it is clear that the arrival of Neymar will increase their income in terms of sponsorship and jersey sales, but in terms of performance and game of course Barcelona cannot expect much from Neymar later,  Barcelona has a lot of problems right now and they really need the right solution to overcome these problems, but I think bringing in Neymar is not a good solution and alternative even though they may not need to buy him at a high price but Barcelona will have another burden in bearing his big salary, while Neymar, If he comes back to Barcelona of course he will be very respected there but with his age and current condition then his role may be different from before, I am quite sure if he will no longer be the main player who always appears from the beginning of the game, but he may be more of an experienced player who can make an impact from the bench later.
