Bayern Munich demanded a loan fee of £5m for the 19-year-old from Man Utd which made the deal not happen. With that fee Man Utd still doubt Mathys Tel's ability so this incident opened the way again for Tottenham to get him after their previous bid was rejected. Mathys Tel has no choice but to take this option rather than stay at Bayern Munich where he will not develop due to lack of playing time.

Congratulations to every City fan out there and to Guardiola finally getting their transfer target to boost the team’s strength in midfield for the rest of the campaign. Recently we have watched City struggle in midfield against teams that have better midfielders and it has cost the team some crucial points that would have kept them in a better position in the league table this season. KDB is not getting any younger, that also goes for Gundogan and Bernardo, they obviously needed to recruit fresh legs to help out.

In the end Milan managed to get Joao Felix on loan.
Good move for the team ambition to try to catch up the 4th spot.

about this winter session we have

Premier League -330mil

The big spenders are always Premier and Saudi, source Transfermaket.com

So much has been talked about regarding this transfer, a few English clubs were also linked with this transfer too but the shocking part of it all is finally ending up with Spurs after previously being said to have rejected Tottenham’s project. Could it be that in the end Tottenham’s offer was the best that came? Or was it all just a way to make Spurs step up their game? Well I wouldn’t even blame the kid for turning down Manchester United for Spurs lol.

I think this is not a problem of training, but more of an attitude problem. As before, we know the situation happened when Ten Hag was still the head coach at Manchester United. Now it happened again under Amorim, Rashford is rumored to have problems with his new coach. However, the news tends to be packaged with problems during training. It could be like that, with the scenario that Rashford doesn't really like the program and system brought by Amorim. In the end, as we see now, Aston Villa is his current place. Let's just say that if Barcelona didn't have a problem, Flick would be happy to make him part of his team squad. Unfortunately, Barcelona has obstacles that cannot bring him to Camp Nou. Having no other choice, Rashford agreed to be loaned to Aston Villa. For the second point, it is clear that he will show his abilities as much as possible for Aston Villa at this time. Simple, the reason is to prove that he is worthy and he can work with Aston Villa. Not only that, maybe there are other big clubs who want his services in the next transfer window. besides, if Rashford learns from experience of course he also has another view on his current problems. he could be a hard worker, especially if the team he defends is an elite club in one of the Leagues. well, next we'll just see how Unai Emery handles his team and of course about Marcus Rasford in it. developing or not, we'll find out later.

Felix was good, he's very good creativity when he's working on the ball. The problem is Chelsea has Palmer to compete with him. We do know how good Palmer. He played as CAM, but able scored a lot of goals. He's even competing with Salah and Haaland.

This pushes Maresca to always give Palmer a spot in the squad, while Felix has no chance to compete with him. So, the decision to leave is a good one.

As long as he gets minutes on Milan. This moves won't be wasted.

Actually Manchester United need revolution with current composition teams but have financial problem and new manager Ruben Amorim must adapt well with current composition teams. Rashford become second players under Amorim era have leave Manchester United after recently Antony loan to Real Betis. I think Rashford take good decision for himself get more minutes playing by accepting offer from Aston Villa as loan option until the end of this season than stay with Manchester United get difficult to be main player.

Good decision taking by Rashford accepting offer from Aston Villa because he will play at Champion League match, its difficult keep staying with United because for next season seems can't reach the top fourth position standing or reach UEFA Champion League spot place.

Rashford has now been officially loaned to Aston Villa and I think the loan is the best decision for Manchester United, Rashford and also Aston Villa, his indiscipline so far has made Rashford have a bad relationship with Amorim and we all can't blame Amorim for his decision to waste rasford, because Amorim has the prerogative of managing the squad and also choosing the players he wants to be in his squad at the moment, Rashford has not shown satisfactory performance so far other than his indiscipline problem.
Btw Amorim has only been coaching the Red Devils for half a season, especially with the team's very poor condition and performance when left by ten hag, of course we can't  say if his performance is not better than ten hag in coaching.

as a coach, it is expected of him that he should be tactical enough to make his decision not based on the expectation of fans but based on what he knows is what the team needs that will bring them back to getting good result. of cause, the Manchester united problem is not just a simple man's problem that one can assume that selling a particular player will change things or doing a complete overhaul of players is enough to do the magic in the team. Rashford is not at his best but him alone is not the problem of united. even without him, the misery lingers on till both the coach and the management are able to get things right.

after staying for a single club right from his academy to this moment and has had a gross stay that is literally above 20 years, he deserves to taste what it means like to play in another team and maybe he has actually overstayed his welcome at united and that might just be the reason why the motivation to improve and fight for the badge and dropped down so drastically.

Apparently this forest should not end with one Rashford, and on the one hand Rashford played at a time when Manchester United was a good team and he was with them when difficult times came. Fans have long been saying that Rashford has changed, but I do not believe that the problem was only with Rashford.

Manchester United played many matches without him and they were even worse than with ten Hag, this does not mean that all the players are bad and everyone needs to be changed, and Amorim is unlikely to change anything with a few transfers.

If the same players continue to play in United, no good results will be achieved in EPL. Since there was a change of coach, some players also need to be replaced. Therefore, Rashford leaving United is not a big deal because he has no place in the club anymore. More players need to be sold out for new players who will transform the team to come in.

Marcus Rashford stands out as the first name to leave Manchester United. He went to Aston Villa on loan but will probably leave the team completely at the end of the year. Now we will all watch how he performs with Aston Villa. He hasn't had much chance to play for Manchester United lately. I hope he returns to his old form. Because I remember him from the times when he was in form, he was a very good player.

He had that chance at United, nobody was against him personally or something, dude could have played hard and gain his time. All he had to do was show himself playing hard in training if he did that then he would have been given time during the games as well. But instead, he didn't put himself fully committed to training, which made him not only fail to get time, but also fail to even stay at the team.

Why do people think that he will suddenly go to Villa and give his 100% when he didn't do that at United? I agree that for a first few weeks, or maybe even a month or two, he may show more than what he has shown at United, to "prove" that he is good, but then because his characteristic isn't a hard worker, he will stop caring and he will become bad. I guarantee you that last 3-4 weeks of the season, he will be a terrible player, and next season he will stay being a terrible player yet again. He will only be good for maximum of 2 months, probably less.

Joao Felix could be an important player for the incomplete Milan squad. They added him to their squad on loan, but perhaps his performance until the end of the season will allow him to return to the Premier League. The Portuguese player was far from the expected performance with Chelsea at the moment. Maybe he will find himself again in the Italian League. I see this transfer as logical for Milan. However, I do not understand why they sent Alvaro Morata.

We can’t blame Amorim for Rashford fall from grace, it is totally understandable that a player who has been contributing less to the team’s improvement and earning so much needs to be cut off because looking at Manchester United and comparing the current team to the old days, I will say the club has suffered so much in recent years and they need a change urgently even if it requires cutting down expenses and caryrying out an overhaul to eradicate dead woods to free up space for new recruitments. I have strong belief that more players will follow at the end of the season.

Morata has already left for Galatasaray, so apparently Milan are not satisfied with Morata's performance in this one and I don't think Joao Felix will do better than Morata. Conceicao is a very demanding coach and already several have left for other clubs on loan including Morata, Tomori and Calabria. So apparently Joao Felix had no other options to play on loan at a top club. Initially his transfer looked very strange, especially after his first loan spell in 2023, when Felix was not put in the squad by Chelsea's head coach at the time Frank Lampard.

A symbiotic-mutualism between Milan and Chelsea. Felix's transfer to the Milan was not surprising me, he lacks of minutes in Chelsea due to the tough competition with Palmer. He has to go to the serie a, which is a good move consider he's still young.

He can dig more experience to play at the top team of serie a. I also wonder whether there is a special relationship between Chelsea and Milan. Plenties of Chelsea players gone to Milan since a few years ago i.e Morata, Giroud, RLC, Pulisic and many more.

Someone like Felix has done what it takes to be in the first 11 of Chelsea but yet the manager doesn't see any reason to play this guy Felix and when you talk about Palmer, if not for the way he showed how good he is during the time of the other managers when he joined from City and how the fans loved how he changes the outcome of the game, if not that Enzo Maresca won't have seen him as a best option. Coming to Felix, things haven't been going well for him right from whwn he was at ATM and if he isn't good or doesn't suit Maresca's plan I don't see why Enzo always start him when they play the conference league, the thing is Maresca is confused on who to start for who and it pains me that he always prefers the guys who mess up the game for the club the more, example Jackson and some times Madueke.

While the other teams make absurd market blows, such as Milan with Joao Felix, Juventus sold a very interesting player to Fiorentina and it is Nicolo Fagioli, an attacker who was really attached to the Juventus shirt, this transfer reminds me that by Kean, another player who had not been able to explode at Juventus but who is now doing very well to Fiorentina

Are you hoping Rashford to always watching his club from the bench, and always being excluded from the squad due to the technical reason by Amorim? No, it's a big no! He is still young enough and getting less minutes is a disaster for his career.

There's nothing wrong from this move. 6 months loan, same salary, and he's back again to his club at the end of season. It's not a step down for him. He still plays in PL, but only in the different club.
