I can't stop thinking about who is talent-searching after Alex Fergusen leaves. After Alex leaves seems like the club can't find a potential player like Alex era. We don't surprise if we look how they find Maguire, Martial, and other players where faith spends a lot money but don't have achievement from the beginning. Ronaldo is one of them, a good choice if the talent searcher wants to find a famous player, not as an athlete, Ronaldo is an artist, and the talent search is doing a good job when finding an artist than an athlete. So, next who other artists will MU to recruit?, MU need Oscar than premier league tittle.

I don't know where and got the artist's mention of Ronaldo or it was just sarcasm. lol

But what you said is true that Man United needs players who are ready to fight on the field. Not a spoiled player and just want to be supplied with the ball. After all, now they are being tested with various internal and external examples that require Man United to be able to show their consistency on the field. Especially in treating all players. Maybe at this time besides resting their players, there are many policies that must still be taken as a form of firmness. In the next season's transfer market, Man United must lock in at least one striker who has a warrior mentality.
Garnacho seems like a player like that, he is loved by the fans right now, they have also bought Sancho a year ago or so and I feel like he is definitely a good player too. The problem with United is that they have a culture right now, a bad one at that as well because owners do not care and the players don't neither.

So, let’s assume you got a player who fights every bit of the field and tries to win, if you buy that player and put him into United that player will start to not care eventually when he sees nobody else does, and even him being disliked for trying. It’s true that the players are doing better nowadays, and that fight is on the rise again, but it requires a bit more effort as a whole team, not by individual players or transfers.

With the news of Ronaldo and Man United trying to terminate his contract when the world Cup expires in one .month time I think Garnacho will be a perfect replacement for the number seven jersey for Manchester United. He is  outstanding and unique as he has shown full commitment to the club and the fans he deserves a place an unshakable place inside the squad at the moment he is better in a better form to Sancho

napoli's nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is also on manchester united's radar and is a more attainable january target, with the serie a club set to receive a host of offers for the £60 million striker when the window opens in six weeks' time. and according to 'mirror', he is also being rumored as CR7 successor at the 'red devils'
If Man United plans to make an offer of £60 million, Napoli easily refuse it since it is still below Osimhen's market value (£70 million). As far as I know, Napoli sets the price for Victor Osimhen above £100 million. A rumor stated that Napoli won't let Osimhen leaves the club if the offer is below £110 million. So, Man United must increase their offer if they are serious to sign Osimhen, they need to add more £50 million. On the other hand, Real Madrid is also interested to sign Victor Osimhen. Since Victor Osimhen plays in UCL, I think he prefers to join Real Madrid than Man United. I doubt if Victor Osimhen wants to play at Europa League.  Grin

Manchester United seem to be really interested in Victor Osimhen but Napoli have valued their player for (£70 million) which is still more than the amount Manchester United are ready to pay for his services. I know Napoli are still reluctant to let him leave therefore I expect to see some bid rejection in the winter expect United are ready to cough out the actual amount Napoli are demanding for the player.

Maybe Barcelona would really make use of a defender transfer in January after the injuries and Pique's retirement decision. However their performance in the defense line has been quite well generally. They have had big problems against big teams maybe but they still managed to dominate the rest of the games like the usual Barcelona.

Indeed they had better focus on improving their effort in big games to be more successful. Especially for the Champions League this is a must. It is the only way to do a good job there next season.

Clubs don't always need to buy players during the transfer window. Barcelona during the last transfer window were one of the teams that were active in signing players, considering the quality of players they already have in their team, I don't see any need to get more players, the ones they have got now have to first perform. It is also still possible that they go back on their word and decide to get a few more players.
But maybe there will be some maneuvers if Barcelona actually needs strength in defense which doesn't look healthy during the injury of some of its players. Barcelona failed in the Champions League because their defensive strategy was bad and the defenders were unable to keep up with the speed of the opponent's attackers. So it would be great if I heard they were looking for another defender instead of extending their old player's contract.

Barcelona already have a lot of quality players and their young talents are also good. The midfield will get stronger when Pedri and Gavi have a lot of experience, but their defense still has weaknesses.

Barcelona president Laporta said that they weren't going to be in a condition that they could sign any new player in the transfer window in January according to some news. I don't see this as bad news for Barcelona truthfully. Because Barcelona are already in no need of strengthening their squad in the middle of the season. They already have a great squad quality full of talented youngsters and experienced players like Lewandowski. Their problem on defeating big teams now is not related to the squad quality.
Don't you see Barcelona needs a new defender after Pique decided to retire?
Barcelona may be strong enough, but they have some defenders who often get injured. Kounde and Araujo got injured for a long time, Barcelona is in trouble if another defender gets injured too. They only have Andreas Christensen and Eric García for center-backs now, these defenders look not strong enough to play against a strong team like Real Madrid. I think Barcelona needs a new strong defender (CB) considering this situation. We know that the season is still far from the end.

They already have a great squad quality full of talented youngsters and experienced players like Lewandowski. Their problem on defeating big teams now is not related to the squad quality.

It is related to making the right decisions for these matches in terms of not only the player choices but also the strategies. It is in Xavi's hands to fix their problems against big teams. Because it has cost them big so far like being eliminated in the Champions League.
The problem Barcelona is facing is not the quality of the players or their poor performance, this season Barcelona has performed well after bringing in several experienced players. The arrival of Kounde has made Barcelona's defense stronger, Kounde immediately adapted well and was able to partner perfectly with Araujo.

Improving Balde performance has also benefited Barcelona. This Wonderkid who graduated from La Masia always looks good when given minutes to play. Apart from having made it into the main squad, he is also able to play in two sectors at the same time as left back and right back.

The three midfielders who are always filled with talented young players have made many changes in Barcelona form of play, De Jong, Pedri and Gavi have made Barcelona midfield more solid and able to control the game well.
There is no need to doubt the attack line filled with Lewandowski, Barcelona could easily have looked for the winning goal when Lewandowski got the ball.

Barcelona only weakness this season is difficulty winning when facing big teams, Xavi must find the best strategy to achieve his goals this season, including being able to keep up with teams that are on par with the Barcelona squad.
If Barcelona are good defensively, also good in the midfield position with these talented players in Gavi, De Jong and Pedri and have one of the best attacking trio in the league, what could be the possible cause of their lack of winning could it be the fault of the coach or probably his tactics are not good enough? For what it is the board believe in Xavi and believe he is the right man for the job, he probably needs more time to turn things around.

Barcelona does not need new players to strengthen their squad, the category of players they have is good enough to take them to any level of competition if they are well-organised.
I would have said that they would need a defender who will replace Pique who recently retired from Barcelona but even when he was playing he wasn't being used by the coach.
I will say if Barcelona needs any kind of change it should be a coach they would sign and not players. They have bunch of good players.

Having said that, it is possible that Ronaldo would no longer play at the top/elite level again, maybe there isn't a big club that wants to pay his huge wages again, so another possibility is for Ronaldo to move to a less competitive league (maybe in Saudi Arabia) that will offer him far more than what he is receiving at the moment (in terms of salary/wages), so he could go there, make tons of money, finish his club career with little or no pressure, and be happy, the only thing is that he will be away from the spotlight, and that is one thing Ronaldo would struggle to give up (the spotlight), we'll find out what happens next after the WC.

I definitely agree with you, Looking at Ronaldo right now I still see this much of energy and eagerness to continue playing football,  maybe till 40 years. If actually he wants to be or play in most recognized league in the world, then best thing he should do is to consider taking paycuts, so clubs will be able to pay his wages, because right now at his age he should be playing for pleasure and to stay fit too not for money, he has achieved almost everything he needs to achieve both in his career and otherwise.

Everyone knows the eagerness of Ronaldo to continue playing football maybe for two or more years but no one seems to understand the notion of the superstar. Age is no longer on his side but money has never been the reason why he hasn't been linked to other top clubs in Europe, Ronaldo is willing to accept a pay cut but he wants to play for a team in the Champions League and he wants to be a regular starter in the team because he believes that he's got a lot to offer in the field if given the opportunity and that was why he was pushing for a move to Napoli but the deal wasn't a success.

Ronaldo has got some notable achievements playing football that's why he isn't playing in Saudi Arabia right now if he's looking for money then I see nothing stopping him from accepting the offer last season when he was offered a contract.

I would advise Ronaldo to retire from football because he has played for a long time and has some great moments and memories in football history, and his continued presence may ruin all of those good memories with his attitude.
I don't think there is any chance in hell that Ronaldo is going to retire from football now, he takes very good care of himself and he still has got enough left in his tank, so i think he is going to be around for quite awhile. I think before Ronaldo made that explosive interview with Piers Morgan, he knew that would spell the end of his career at Manchester United, so i am thinking if he and his agent already have an offer they know is very likely to work in the winter, he is definitely not going back to Manchester United after this, but only he and his agent prolly know what's next for him.

Honestly Ronaldo isn't looking like he is a year close to retirement. He looks fit and still has power to keep going and playing. The interview with Morgan is a blow to the club and so far I'm still waiting to see how they will react to this. An end to his United career seems likely but for what boldness Ronaldo had to make those statements obviously he has his mind already set for whatever is coming as a result of his actions.

Osimhen might be priced above 100 millions USD by napoli. The team like MU might able to buy him but im sure he has some considerations and it's not all about money. The future of his career far important caused by that will be for long term
He would rather be at Napoli for a long time than be attracted by the atmosphere of the rest of the league. Victor Osimhen has the opportunity to become the best player in Europe if he is able to improve his form every season. He's a star now, but maybe not at his best even though he's 23 now. 9 goals in 11 Serie A matches are really great for him, moreover he has helped mighty Napoli at the top of the standings.

But if he wants to consider leaving Napoli, then I hope he doesn't go to Manchester United because it's a place that doesn't suit him. Chelsea is more suitable for him, or Liverpool.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
Manchester United have been a bit quicker in their pursuit of the player's signature, rumors have swirled of a barter deal between the two managements, in which the option is growing Victor Osimhen goes on loan to United and Cristian Ronaldo goes to Napoli.

This will actually be a good deal and I think both clubs will benefit from this, Ronaldo really needs to leave Manchester united with immediate effect as that club is destroying the legacy that Ronaldo has built while Manchester united needs a young striker to build on the strategy their current coach has been working on which is counter football. This is the reason he doesn't use Ronaldo much because he's no longer faster as he was and can dull the game when the coach wants a fast football.

Napoli on the other hand can benefit both from on field contributions and off field contributions like ticket and t-shirt sells etc. Ronaldo also has some goals in him that he can contribute to the team. Manchester united wasn't just a fit for Ronaldo because of so many reason but Napoli won't hold same fate as Manchester united.
It would be a good decision if Manchester United got Victor Osimhen and Ronaldo went there, whereas Erik Ten Hag is the typical coach who wants a young player who is quicker than Ronaldo little according to his performances coupled with yesterday's rumors made the decision will be more in the future.

Of course if this happens then Napoli will have an advantage from the merchandise sold while the contribution on the field will not be as good as Osimhen even though Ronaldo has goals on the field but I'm not sure it will last long considering he is old.

Manchester United interest in Osimhen cannot be denied because Manchester United is sure to lose Ronaldo in the winter window due to the rift between Ronaldo and Manchester United. Apart from that, Osimhen, who has skyrocketed with Napoli this season, has succeeded in getting several big European teams interested in getting Osimhen, but one thing that is difficult for other teams to get Osimhen is from the words of the agent who stated that Osimhen will not leave Napoli in this winter transfer window. But we'll see how strong Osimhen loyalty to Napoli is when the transfer window opens.

I really hope FC Bayern and Chuopo come to an agreement over a new contract. Chuopo is performing extremely well this season and deserves a decent salary. However, the club must of course also take his age into consideration. Maybe a 2 year contract with a €5m salary? What do you guys think?

I think he will get a year extension contract and that is what Bayern munich is offering Chuopo. This is perhaps why the contract talks are stalled for a while now. Bayern munich seem to be managing and offloading their ageing frontline; so issuing a 2 year contract would be way too much for the team. I still think a year extension is just as nice

Bayern Munich don't have money problem now so I think they would lean towards agreeing Choupo-Moting's terms. He is already a good alternative in the attacking line now by making score contributions. He is actually more than being alternative these days. Because he has scored 11 goals in 16 matches so far. It is like he has waited for the moment to see Lewandowski being sold. Choupo-Moting is just using his chance in a great way now.

I would still like to see them signing a solid striker in the summer but Choupo-Moting might be enough for them this season. If I'm not wrong there were some speculations linking him with Manchester United. I don't think Bayern Munich would be eager to sell him in the middle of the season.

The German newspaper Bild is reporting that FC Bayern and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting are to held talks for a new contract in February. Choupo-Moting is expecting a big pay rise from his current €3.5m year salary.

Internally, Bayern assume that Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting would only accept a new contract if he gets a big pay rise (currently on €3.5m/year). The club would be willing to offer him a significant raise. Talks with Choupo's agent are planned for February [@altobelli13, @SPORTBILD]

It's just been released, and I think it's the end of Ronaldo career at Manchester United. It's lucky that the World Cup is held at a fairly close time because otherwise, I don't think Ronaldo would have gotten a call-up to any club. As reported by The SUN, Inter Miami is interested in establishing a contract with Ronaldo at the start of next season. There are many pros and cons in this case, and not a few former Manchester United players such as Ibrahimovic and Mourinho also expressed the same thing.
I would advise Ronaldo to retire from football because he has played for a long time and has some great moments and memories in football history, and his continued presence may ruin all of those good memories with his attitude.

I think obviously it is true that Cristiano Ronaldo is not going to retire. And I also agree with @naira that the World Cup is happening at the right time otherwise, I agree that it might actually have been very ugly for him. I know it is possible that after Manchester United, he might actually have to downgrade because he will not get many teams. But I wonder if it is going to be that much less competitive. I think it could be something like an A/B tier team from the S tear team that he is on right now.

But if he actually can show a really good performance with Portugal in the World Cup, I think probably some teams are going to be interested in him. But I wonder if it is going to happen.

It is related to making the right decisions for these matches in terms of not only the player choices but also the strategies. It is in Xavi's hands to fix their problems against big teams. Because it has cost them big so far like being eliminated in the Champions League.
it would be crazy if barca bought another player because their current squad is amazing, what xavi needs to do is improve their midfield and backline

after being eliminated from the champions league, they have to quickly move on from that, currently barca is at the top of the la liga standings and their potential to win the european league is very big, they don't need to add other players
