If you look at the few seasons he has had with Brighton he is actually cold handed and this is definitely something good for Chelsea but when the expectations are overstated it is also not very good and he could also be like Poche at PSG in the end because it can be considered this is a team. First major for Graham Potter.
But hopefully this goes well because Todd is sometimes not as simple as imagined.

Wolves have had sasa as their main striker this season but unfortunately he got injured in his debut game, losing Sasa forced Wolves to look for another striker and to be honest I didn't think that Wolves choice was Diego Costa, after leaving Atletico Madrid, I never again heard about his and  I thought that he had retired, but it was quite surprising if Wolves finally brought one of  striker have high-temper back to premier league, I think signing Costa is a gamble for wolves at the moment considering Costa age which is a bit old and also his performances has drastically decreased during this time.

Well some may think that Potter had to work out with more teams before getting into managing big teams , I think that it is his unique way of managing which has earned him manager spot for team such as Chelsea. Yes, obviously they had options of Zidane and Pochettino but I think they wanted to give chances to someone who is managing a team very well with not much resources. I honestly admire the way Potter has managed Brighton and I think he can manage a team very well but managing a big team is a big and a heavy challenge. Chelsea is taking a risk here but if it turns out well then I think he will manage Chelsea very well.

A very good time for Galatasaray and Turkish as now they have few big names in soccer for next season even their good time is already over but still they can do very good for their new club and Turkish League which is right now under good development and looking for better marketing and big names which give them good value.

Galatasaray which were badly down in last season were looking for few better options which give them better results in this season, so now they have good opportunity where they can do much better even now they can go for top four which is not easy challenge for them but with these quality players now they have chance for staying at good position.

Cristiano Ronaldo could be alternative with short term contract for Chelsea and not about giving two or three years contract depending with Ronaldo have been 37 years old. Still have second chance for Chelsea on winter transfer window opening to sign in Cristiano Ronaldo because looking with Chelsea attacking line still weakness and not have recovery player except with Aubameyang. Raheem Sterling is player typical for winger and he can't be central forward. Ronaldo played on Europe League and have chance for Chelsea playing him on Champion League if reach agreement next window transfer but Chelsea should able pass on group stage after last defeating on first match against Dinamo Zagreb.

what i don't understand is, how is this an improvement for Chelsea?
for Chelsea, i believe that there were better options that were available to them, what made them decide to choose Graham Potter instead of Zidane or Pochettino?
it is probably something i will never be able to understand, while i am aware of the fact that he has been having some good success with Brighton in recent times, we all have to realize that Brighton and Chelsea are two very different teams, Chelsea really doesn't seem to be going to make any big improvements with this move, in my opinion,
but at the same time, i would be very happy if Graham Potter can prove me wrong

Even this all is already done but still it is not good decision by Chelsea management because in these circumstances he deserves some more time for better results with this big change now things are more tricky because here Potter and Chelsea both are playing on a big gamble which is surely going to have big impact on their season if they are able to settle things in positive way than surely they are going to have good end of this season otherwise they are badly going down and out of top four with now Manchester United and Arsenal are also had good development with their start of this season and amazing performance.

Surely Aubameyang is here just because of Tuchel factor, but now he has to settle in this new set up which is not easy for him, but his performance is surely going to be vital for Chelsea because if he performs good then surely they are going to have good result.

But unfortunately that never happened to Tuchel at Chelsea. The club can't wait to replace Tuchel with Graham Potter although many consider it a very sudden decision. We can only guess, if Potter is not able to restore Chelsea's performance in a better direction then he must also be ready to be sacked at the end of the season.

For Liverpool, it seems that Klopp's position as their long-term coach is still safe until now. Klopp is aware that the start of the season was a difficult period for his team, but things can still improve as the competition progresses. I firmly believe he will stay with Liverpool until the end of the season, so no worries about his situation after the 4-1 defeat by Napoli.

It is very natural when this happens because indeed another reason that brought Aubameyang to Chelsea was with Tuchel there but only 1 game he played under Tuchel he was sacked.
But I think he will continue to do well, Graham Potter is one of the best coaches for the EPL right now because even with Brighton being a team he could have made an outstanding performance and now it can be a challenge too for Potter, especially Chelsea, filled with several players who have above average player skills. hopefully he can make Chelsea's performance improve.

One of the shortcomings of chelsea this season is a central striker, after the departure of Lukaku automatically makes the stock of strikers that chelsea currently has is limited and that's why they signed aubameyang at the close of the transfer market this summer, chelsea who often plays attacking with both wings of course is not too focused on get a new striker unless later Aubameyang performs not according to their expectations.
Aubameyang agreement to Chelsea was none other than the Tuchel factor, but unfortunately they have only worked together in one game this season and obviously it was a big disappointment for Aubameyang.

Wolves hurriedly signed Diego Costa as a backup for their injured forwards Sasa Kalajdzic and  Raul Jimenez who had been ruled out for a long term I believe Diego Costa had already passed his prime, can he cope with the physicality and pace of EPL at 33 without underperforming?, I am not surprised that he was offered a season contract by Wolves in case he flopped there won't be contract extension, though he has the experience, however I think he would have play well in Chinese, Arabian leagues or MLS instead of EPL, well time will tell if he can compete at the highest level at that age.

I don't think that Chelsea are thinking of making a big striker signing for now. They have already signed Aubameyang and they would like to see his performance first. If he performs poorly until January then maybe they can try to go for a big transfer move. Ronaldo might be seen like an option but I don't think so. He would cost them too much and there is no guarantee if he would play better than Aubameyang.

By the way Aubameyang is really disappointed to see Tuchel being sacked. He came here for Tuchel in the end but the team are trying to reassure him for the time period ahead. Hopefully it wouldn't be a factor for him to start playing badly.

If Chelsea are looking for an attack boost in the winter then Ronaldo will be the only option available on the market. All other players have already started playing in the Champions League for other clubs and even if they move to Chelsea they will not be able to play in the Champions League until the start of next season. As for gambling, this is nonsense - Ronaldo is one of the most reliable purchases imaginable. And of course we will talk about a short-term contract and not about a 3-year one.

Well there is something that is not very well known, and it is that for me the problem is not with the Manchester players, I only imagine that if a technical director like Mourinho arrives, he is capable of taking this team forward without any problem, ´for me it is lack of that, because he has very good material to be able to do great things, even compete with the best, but I insist for me the downfall of Manchester United is the fault of the Technical Director, for me Ten Hag was too big for the team, there are people They say that it is very good, but in reality good results have not been seen, for me it is not like that, it is quite the opposite, however I think I am the only one who sees things that way.

Well, if Diego Costa returns to the PL it will be something very interesting, I would like to see him again, that player is very good, and he can now make a good difference, by the way I have seen many rumors about CR7, some say that he has been even sending messages via Whats app with the technical director of Napoli, they want to take him away, he says that he can no longer stand anything in Manchester, supposedly he will already be the starter, apparently the hard-headed Ten Hag will put him to play all 90 minutes, many people are I very much disagree with the treatment that the Dutchman gives to CR7, but I think that thinking and seeing this from another point of view, it seems to me that it is also good that he does not use him much, the World Cup is approaching, and maybe it would be good to play little to reduce the possibility of injury, although CR7 is a machine.

I can't wait to see Diego Costa play in the Premier League again, he is one of those players that quite a lot of people have missed in the Premier League, for obvious reasons, too bad he won't be in the spotlight like he was then, because he isn't moving to a big club, but nonetheless he is a player with a big personality and character and i expect him to be in the news, both for good and bad reasons. Wolves have not started too brightly this season, so i guess he could help them, so they don't find themselves in a relegation battle sometime in the season.

^  i'm hopeful.  I loved him at Chelsea and hopefully he gets some of his old form back and bring good things at Wolverhampton.  And I don't think it's his age that got him a bit deteriorated.  He's 33 years old and it's not that old.  It could be the lower quality of competition at South America or wherever he was playing, if he was playing.  Lol.

But yeah, nothing like getting exposed back to European football to get his tools sharp.  He still has a good couple of years of football imho.

Diego Costa has done medical tests. but there is news about the player barely passing the medical test.
I think Diego Costa's fitness has decreased. not like it used to. he is no longer young, he does have experience, but on the pitch that is not all that is needed.
it's hard to expect his good performance in the Premier League.

Ronaldo's performance is not good anymore. Signing him will be only the same like wasting club's money. Some clubs have been rejecting him. that means if he is not being considered as a potential player anymore. Graham potter has become a new coach for chelsea. We will see whether graham can bring chelsea on its best performance or not.

Diego Costa is back to the premier league after a long time out. It's on free transfer to Wolverhampton, and signed a contract until June 2023, just a season with the English side. He will definitely putin his energy and gives a good results to wolves. Medical tests already completed and the Spaniard would be fully active in their games since he's one top striker with lengthy experience both in the premier league and laliga. The wanderers boss, Bruno Lage still looking and expects much from the new player joining the team.

Chelsea may have to rethink and have other options than attracting Ronaldo. However, Ronaldo problem now is about unfulfilled ambitions. And now he doesn't realize that his potential has decreased, his time seems to be lost because he is no longer young. If we look at Chelsea, which is too extravagant to buy a lot of expensive players but does not contribute as expected. Quality players are not always expensive, but the manager's thoroughness in selecting and sorting out suitable players.
