As usual, Barcelona brought in Héctor Bellerín and Marcos Alonso to prepare for their first debut against Cadiz. Again Barcelona brought in players to continue to strengthen all lines. Although in fact, almost every line has a new replacement option. Héctor Bellerín is like a player that Xavi tested because he is free on a one-year contract. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Xavi trying to cultivate the potential of Héctor Bellerín.
In the coming window we shall see if Chelsea still have interest in getting Ronaldo to wear the blue shirts. Ronaldo is aged now but I still have much faith in him and believe with the right environment and right energy around him he still has a season or two to perform and I also believe he will improve the squad and strengthen Chelsea's attack especially now that they have Aubameyang and Sterling in the team.
Im feeling doubt he will be going to the chelsea. They didn't need ronaldo. Ronaldo was not giving a significant contribution to the MU. Chelsea didn't need ronaldo. Chelsea needs to make its team go back to the right track to win any match in EPL and all of competitions. Im thinking about chelsea must used all of resources that owned by the club, remember that if chelsea was in a new coach and i hope there will be a significant increase on its performance compared when it was being managed by tuchel. Ronaldo is not an answer for the club. He may have bad performance again when he was moving to the chelsea.
That top transfers list is very limited actually. I don't know why Transfermarkt didn't add de Ligt as well for example. He was also transferred by Bayern Munich for a huge sum of money. I think that he is a way better defender than Fofana as well. I still think that it might have been more profitable for Chelsea if they went for Ake instead of Fofana. They didn't need to spend this much money to sign a centre-back. They were mainly in need of a centre-forward then and they had decent centre-backs in the team already.
I think I find exactly what you said here but the football games here are basically 90 minutes but it's an interesting game I think a lot can be learned from this football game but here I think that Sports is a great fun game 
Sandro Tonali and AC Milan have officially agreed to extend their contracts. One of the important players in the Rossoneri lineup is the one who operates as a midfielder. Tonali has consistently improved at the San Siro from 2020 to date.
According to the club's official announcement, Sandro Tonali has agreed to an extension of his current contract until 2027. According to reports, the Italian made double the money after his contract was extended. Stefano Pioli, the head coach, continues to have faith in Tonali.

These are the top transfers in the summer so far. Even though Haaland seems like the cheapest transfer among them he is the player who has made the biggest impact so far as well. His contribution to Manchester City has been very impressive already at the beginning of the season. He is compared with Nunez of course but for now there is no meaning in comparing these two. Because Nunez still doesn't play an effective game for Liverpool. If he can't even take Firmino's place in the starting eleven then there is no need for any comparison I believe.
Antony is another very interesting transfer as Manchester United will have spent 100 million euros in total with bonuses. He has a big responsibility to show a solid performance as people are following him closely. Manchester United like to spend an insane amount of money for a player. If Antony doesn't satisfy the expectations this season then they will be in a big loss (in terms of not only money I mean).
Chelsea spent this much money for a defender while they had bigger needs. Fofana is a good defender but I don't know if he will be really worth paying this amount later on. They could have used this money for a big transfer to solve their scoring issues for example. They have signed Aubameyang but I'm not sure if this will be enough.
Neymar is a selfish player but Neymar and Messi both have six assists so far in Ligue 1, which puts them both in the first rank in terms of assists only. That doesn't sound too selfish to me. He also scored seven goals, same number as Mbappe. I am a bit puzzled that there was still any doubt whether Neymar is going to stay with PSG or not. That topic was long ended in my opinion. It would also be a bad moment if he now left. All the top players can play the Champions League and that is still some unfinished business for him. I am sure he also has some special details in his contract that make it extremely attractive for him to win that title. Who knows how much he really earned so far and will still earn just from playing for PSG. If he stays until 2027, which is the year his contract will expire, PSG might have paid him half a billion including signing fees and whatever bonuses we don't know about.
The problem when discussing PSG and Neymar is actually not a performance problem if I look at it as a whole, but because he doesn't really get along with the higher-ups there which makes the higher-ups angry about this. He is one of the players who is quite good and that is proven now, but because of the disagreement and the conflict with Mbappe who incidentally here is the golden child of the club's top brass, the issue of sales is clearly making this worse.The real problem is the question how they are going to deal with a crisis. They didn't have one yet. But when they have one, are they going to solve it? That is the time when things get interesting. There is no question that these players could win any trophy, but how do they get along with each other when there is maximum pressure? I am curious to see how they are going to solve problems as a team, and these problems are going to appear when they meet hard opponents.
unexpectedly Chelsea will recruit Potter to coach. So far Potter has given Beighton's performance improvement. last season performed quite well by being in 9th position in the standings. With the current Chelsea squad, I think Potter will make a big difference to the team.
To be honest, this decision was completely beyond the predictions of many people. because Chelsea also has to pay fairly expensive compensation to Brighton. surprising.
Chelsea have made official announcement about Graham Potter as replacement for Thomas Tuchel sacked after Chelsea defeating by Dinamo Zagreb on UEFA Champion League. Not really popular with Graham Potter although he was success bring Brighton Albion on 9th standing position place last season. To be honest, this decision was completely beyond the predictions of many people. because Chelsea also has to pay fairly expensive compensation to Brighton. surprising.
Depending with Graham Potter success with Brighton Albion last six games in this season with 4 win, 1 draw and 1 loss I think no doubt for him as Chelsea manager, but waiting will can bring magic for Chelsea success back to the top standing after success with Brighton Albion or he will failure like Thomas Tuchel.
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
and also when I read this news about the dismissal of tuchel and the hiring of Graham Potter, I even thought: "why didn't they choose another coach?" but then I started to think better and I think the logic behind this hiring is in the fact that Graham Potter knows the premier league, he has experience playing against all premier league teams so it's easier for him to pick up chelsea and be able to create a good strategy to get good results because he knows all the premier league teams and the fact that he left well in a premier league team is already a good thing. whereas if they had hired an outside coach who is not a coach of a premier league team he would have had difficulties to adapt immediately
Chelsea made a wrong decision to sack him.
if they hadn't fired tuchel then chelsea would be losing points constantly, look at last season, you could clearly see that chelsea was going downhill, and this season things haven't changed, on the contrary things just got worse in a way so close that they stayed no more control, I think it was the right decision
In the coming window we shall see if Chelsea still have interest in getting Ronaldo to wear the blue shirts.

Antony is another very interesting transfer as Manchester United will have spent 100 million euros in total with bonuses. He has a big responsibility to show a solid performance as people are following him closely.
Its just a silly transfer though. Im not saying that Antony is a bad transfer but the amount is just silly, he is not worth more than 50 for sure. Ajax is literally trying to hike as high as they can because they know Ten Hag will sign him whatever the cost and business wise, Ajax did a great job though. Its interesting that he scored on his debut though but being consistent is totally the main point of signing a 100 million player
Man United always buy players at too high a price, so it's not the first time I've seen Man United buy players too expensive. Harry Maguire and
Jadon Sancho are other examples of players Manchester United bought for too high a price. Antony is indeed a good player, it is proven that
Antony made a big contribution when he played at Ajax. But the price of 100 million euros is too expensive for Antony, I agree with you Antony
should be 50 million euros. That's because Man United's management moved slowly at the start of the transfer market this summer,
Man United started to be very active at the end of the transfer market when it was about to close.
Whereas since the arrival of the Ten Hag, actually Ten Hag has entered Antony's name in the list of players he wants, but Man United's management
only moved when the transfer market was about to close. So it's only natural that Ajax raised Antony's price very high, even though I believe that
if Man United made an offer for Antony at the beginning of the transfer market, Ajax would release Antony at a price of around 50 million euros.
Man United were too focused on chasing De Jong at the start of the summer transfer window this year, which in the end they failed to get De Jong.
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.

I doubt if Chelsea will have interest to sign christiano Ronaldo after signing Aubameyang. Ronaldo will cost Chelsea more to buy. Aubameyang is a good striker that Chelsea can really on, but if Chelsea still have interest of signing Ronaldo it will also be nice to have two good strikers in the team, I know Ronaldo will appreciate the offer to leave Manchester United because that has been what he is craving for.
The sack of Tuchel was a shock to Chelsea fans, Chelsea made a wrong decision to sack him.

These are the top transfers in the summer so far. Even though Haaland seems like the cheapest transfer among them he is the player who has made the biggest impact so far as well.
Cheapest because he had a releasing clause, also his price is way higher than 60m if you consider the fee.
the price for him was
Haaland 75 million for the release clause
plus 10 bonus
plus 30 million fees to agents...
For a total of 115m€ way far from the 60.
Also that is an inaccurate list at all, for example DeLigt has been sold for 67m +10m in bonuses for a total between 67 or 77 m€ if the bonus will mature.

what i understand is that Potter previously managed an underperforming team, and if he did not do well with that team
he wouldn’t have anything to worry about because everybody knows that he does not have enough resources anyway
You are wrong, Graham Potter was very successful in bringing Brighton to end the season at number 9 last season. A total of 12 wins, 15 draws and 11 defeats are statistics which are still much better than Everton and Aston Villa. But Graham Potter has no experience at a big team like Chelsea, but the real challenge is just beginning.he wouldn’t have anything to worry about because everybody knows that he does not have enough resources anyway
Basically the Chelsea squad is better than Brighton, so Graham Potter has the opportunity to bring his team to play well from the next match. Unfortunately we have to be a little patient to watch the match because this week there will be no match after all the matches have been postponed. So Graham Potter was in training camp to get to know his players better.
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.
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.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.
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.
As you can imagine, adjusting to the new strategy of the new coach will not be an easy task for the team.
As a matter of fact, Aubameyang was here because Tuchel was the coach, but Tuchel is no longer the coach.
I hope that the new coach will not see this as a burden, but rather as a chance to bring out the best in each player and will do everything in his power to achieve this.
You know, there are not enough good strikers in Chelsea's squad to make the team successful. As a result, I believe Aubameyang is going to be an important player for Chelsea in the future.
In addition to that, I think that he should be given enough playing time in Chelsea as well. I am curious to know what approach the new Chelsea manager is going to take when it comes to dealing with these issues.
I doubt just how experienced Graham Potter is. Is he more experienced than Tuchel? He was the coach of Brighton for the last 3 years. I don't think Brighton performed very well. Last season though Brighton was in the top 10 of the points table. But in the two previous seasons, they finished 16th and 15th. Chelsea management has signed a 5-year contract with Graham Potter. Personally, I don't think Graham Potter will be able to strengthen the Chelsea team much.
Based on experience Thomas Tuchel is definitely much more experienced than Graham Potter
Tuchel has several times handled big clubs from various leagues such as Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain, and last Chelsea. While Graham Potter, I see Chelsea as the only big club that Potter has ever worked for. So obviously the two are on a different level
Regardless, Chelsea have taken action and we will just have to wait and see how effective Chelsea's actions are to sack Thomas Tuchel.
he will be expected to perform at a higher level when working with Chelsea because he will have a lot more and more efficient resources at his disposal
so if he is not able to bring about positive results with Chelsea he will be held accountable, if he cannot produce better results than Tuchel, then he is not doing any good at all
so if he is not able to bring about positive results with Chelsea he will be held accountable, if he cannot produce better results than Tuchel, then he is not doing any good at all
Yes of course it is a huge task for him and huge gamble from Chelsea as well but right now Chelsea has trusted him now. We will just have to wait and see about that. I am not gonna compare Tuchel and Potter but like I said earlier lot went down behind the scenes and I think lot of disagreements, arguments happened between owner and the manager which resulted to Tuchel sack.
Lot of discontent will surface if Potter fails as Chelsea also had Pochetinno as option.

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?

but at the same time, i would be very happy if Graham Potter can prove me wrong
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.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?

Ronaldo would sign with Chelsea i think instantly if they just call him. He wants more playing time plus to play in champions league. Aubameyang for me is a bad move for Chelsea and once he starts playing bad he will just be another bench player like in his previous clubs
You don't hear much about it, but what would Ronaldo think about this now? He was open to a transfer to another club, but no one could pay his salary. So he had to stay at United, not because he wanted to. When does his contract expire? I don't think the situation will change in the winter when we have another period when players can be bought. He won't be making a lot of minutes at United because Antony plays there and doesn't disappoint. Perhaps he should consider moving back to Real Madrid, nowhere has Ronaldo been more successful than at Real Madrid.
