I already posted about this news and Gundogan leaving Barcelona. Gundogan wants to play in the items where he can have more chances to achieve the title. He thinks about the Champions League too because that's something he got in Manchester City and when he left this team to Barcelona he was expecting to have the same good performance in this team. Still, Flick was not enough to make Gundogan happy and it seems the chance for Gundogan to leave is much higher.

Anything wrong with more updates on this? That is not true, he's had Barcelona pushing him away ever since he had issues with Araujo during the last Champions League game they played against Paris Saint Germany with Araujo committing a huge blunder. And also, Barcelona has got financial issues and has found it difficult registering nee players, they cannot get shiit doje until they sell or let players leave. How can you even blame Hansi Flick for not making IIkay Gundogan happy? All these happened last season with Xavi Hernandez in charge.

Manual Ugarte is the missing ingredient for Manchester United midfied right now. Yes they have Casemiro but, they need a much younger midfielder. Manchester United cannot rely hundred percent on Casemiro after the declining signs he displayed last season. Having him around would boost the midfied.

He was the player with most tackles in the 22/23 Primeira Liga in Portugal.

He was also the player with the most tackles in the 23/24 League 1 French League. I can't wait to see him tear down the Premier League down completely.

The swap deal between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid with their players Joao Felix and Conor Gallagher seems to be getting closer to a bright spot both clubs seem to agree with this statement which is clear Joao Felix has wanted to leave Atletico Madrid for a long time because he has had a disagreement with the club's coach and he seems uncomfortable there as well as Conor Gallagher feels happy to be at Atletico Madrid and it is currently known that Gallagher is already in Spain to carry out their agreement.

Well it's already happening, I believe that the transfer of Conor Gallagher to Atletico madrid will be concluded today, 21 august 2024 because the Joao Felix deal was formally conclude yesterday, so what is keeping Conor Gallagher deal uncompleted right now is just papper works, which i strongly believe that it's no longer a barrier in the completion of the deal, so hopefully it would be concluded today,
And lastly, I have really been impressed by the dealings of atletico madrid this summer transfer window, because they have practically spot all what they need and they went for them all, which to me, it was a total success.

Then talking about Conor Gallagher, I think that it's actually a very good move in this stage of his short career so far, and atletico madrid playing pattern will definitely suit him, since he is that aggressive type of player, so I believe that if he can stay fit, he is actually going to be a fascinating signing for this atletico madrid side.

Liverpool is the only Premier League club yet to make a signing in this summer transfer window. Manager Arne Slot has not brought in any new players since taking over from Jurgen Klopp, and he was dealt a blow when Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi rejected a move to Anfield. With less than two weeks left until the end of the transfer window, Liverpool does not have much time left to make any deals.

I think the main target for The Kop should be to strengthen three positions, including a centec-back, a defensive midfielder, and a winger. However, this is not an easy task for the Anfield team. It feels like, instead of buying new players, Liverpool's immediate goal is to help Slot adapt as quickly as possible and take advantage of the foundation left by Klopp. I think Slot is happy with the Liverpool squad because the team has a lot of quality players at the moment.

Manuel Ugarte was recently very close and linked to Manchester United and they wanted to hire this player from PSG but everything they couldn't do that and Manuel Ugarte didn't Manchester United yet.
Even Manuel Ugarte himself wants to leave PSG and prefers to play in the other teams also Enrique didn't use this player because of that but PSG wants to get 70 million euros for this 23-year-old player which is a huge amount of money for Manchester United.
Now it seems Manchester United wants to try another way and take Manuel Ugarte for a loan.

Yes, it seems a bit difficult to buy him this season, and Man United are now trying to get a loan with an obligation to buy, Urgate himself has urged PSG to release him and he wants to play for Man United, his soul is big for him for the Red Devils, and Man United are also fighting for this player because Fulham really wants to bring in Man United player McTominay and Casemiro's case has decreased and Urgate is a possible option for them to sharpen their midfield this season, but in my opinion this exploration is almost complete with a loan with an option to buy because the player himself wants an exit from PSG now PSG must release him.

Urgate is a perfect fit there, how could it not be, Ten Hag is building his young squad and Urgate will enter an important project there, unlike PSG who do not guarantee playing minutes and in my opinion Urgate will go to Man United, he has also made an important push for PSG to release him to Man United, this will happen in the next few days and I think so.

Finally, Chelsea has reached a deal with ATM on the signing of Joao Felix on a six years contract with a 12 months optional addition. I think this is no bad signing, at this time Chelsea really need a striker with a goal scoring capacity. I am suspecting that there loss to Manchester City yesterday must have fast tracked this deal. But the question now is that, does this cancels Chelsea's further interest on Victor Osimhen of Napoli whose future has been that of contention between Chelsea and PSG.

Another bad signing by Chelsea, Joao Felix proves nothing when he was play for Chelsea and Barcelona, which make his market value drop, Chelsea want to sign him. Signing a player just because the price cheaper than before is wrong. I expect Felix will become nobody in Chelsea and Chelsea will try to sell him since they have too many players.

If Chelsea choose to not sign Osimhen, they should give Lukaku a chance.

Honestly, it feels like it is not that much of a bad deal, it is not really a bad transfer period in general. With this one, the yare going to be down about 120-130 million on transfers, they spent more than that but they also had like 100 million or so income from the players they sold which opened up enough for them to get these.

Being down 120 million on transfers is bad of course unless you finish well, but if you want to finish well then spending this much isn't that terrible idea. They got some good young talent and I feel like they are going to improve together.

Joao Felix isn't a terrible player and he could do well enough for them, they have seen what he can do and they decided to get him. He was at Barcelona last season and he did alright during the time he played, which means that Chelsea knows what they are getting with him.

Plus, paying just 40 million euro for him isn't really a lot, Chelsea is a rich club and 40 million is nothing to them, so this is going to be great. And if they worry about financial fair play, they did a six year contract, which means it's like 6.5 million a year or so hit on the cap, and they should not be really worrying about that part too much.

It feels like he is currently at the peak of his career and it would be great if he could continue to add to his playing hours at another club. Manchester United is one of the big English clubs, especially since they have a clear plan under Erik ten Hag. Manuel Ugarte could be the center back for the Red Devils and this would fit with the depth of the squad they have.

The deal is still a difficult discussion and if PSG is willing to be on loan first before the purchase option, I think it will still be an advantage for them. PSG should know how to do business and not always be a consumer team. The cost of 70m euros sounds very excessive indeed but PSG certainly will not submit considering they know their negotiating opponent is Manchester United. This will be a difficult final stage and maybe Manchester United has no other solution than to accept the cost later.

I have no idea why Chelsea want to accept this offer, actually they should learn how to scout and sign a player like what Atletico Madrid did.

They sign Robin Le Normand, Alexander Sorloth, and Julian Alvarez with a realistic fees. If they have players who can't perform, they will loan or sell it, instead of retain it without any reason. if they're successful with Atletico Madrid, I will not be surprised to see they move to Premier League teams and they need to spend 2x from what Atletico Madrid spent.

There are reports of Gundogan returning to Manchester city as he’s wanted by Pep Guardiola. Who would've thought Gundogan would be leaving Barcelona to return to Manchester City after how many seasons.

This sounds good news tbh. I meant, it's a win-win for City and Barcelona. If City gets Gundogan back, it will greatly boost our midfield depth. We need a good player like him. Also, it helps Barcelona reduce its wages, and they can sign new player as Gundogan backs to the City.

Quote from: Mr.right85 on August 20, 2024, 01:10:40 PM

I don’t know how I feel about his return, but they have used him before and Pep knows exactly what he offers. Exactly same set of players he left in the dressing room last season. For pep, it's plug and play. He understands what the manager wants from him and he doesn't have to take time to fit in and blend in. I think it’s a win win for all parties. Gundogan back in City's midfield strengthens them big time.

Pep knew him so well, and city's still having problem on its midfield. It's happened after Mahrez was leaving from the club, then he gone to the Saudi. The decision to add Gundogan back to the club will be solving our loophole at mid. For me, im feeling very good with this news.

The news has just appears today that Liverpool has just gets their first player this season but unfortunately they didn't bought defender or midfielder because Liverpool has been reach an agreement for Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili and it says Liverpool have to spend over than 30 million as transfer fees but Giorgi Mamardashvili will joining to Liverpool on June 2025 which mean although he is Liverpool player but Giorgi Mamardashvili will loaned to Valencia for this season

This rumors have been spreading around since the heroics by this Georgian goalkeeper at the Euros where he made it to the team of the tournament, to it is not a bad deal for Liverpool considering that their main man which is Allison Becker is reportedly looking to leave when his contract expires just next summer, at the moment it will be hard to do a deal with Valencia since they would need to also get a new goal keeper with the window closing. So the idea of having to leave the goalkeeper there for yet another season is a good idea, this will actually give the player more game time since he will need to compete with Allison for that if he comes to Liverpool now, but next season Allison wouldn’t be there. It will also help Liverpool negotiate the deal on a better valuation than when Valencia will be looking to get more for a new goalkeeper

IIkay Gündoğan is an important instrument when he was under Pep Guardiola management. He explored and turn out to become one of the very developing players that made crucial contributions to the team's performance and stats. Currently in Barcelona, he failed completely to build good chemistry with Barcelona, this is absolutely not a good choice for the German international. Rumours about Gündoğan keen on returning back to Manchester City, this is plain good news for the club but triggering this bid to come into action would be little challenging on the ends of the Citizens.

But even so I think it will only be a rumor for Manchester City because even though they want Gundogan to be in their squad but surely they will wait until next season so that this can be done and get Gundogan for free.
We certainly know that Gundogan left Manchester City on a free transfer so it would be ridiculous if Manchester City bought back a player they had let go for free because if that happened then from the start Manchster City would have increased the duration of Gundogan's contract.

But on the other hand if indeed Gundogan is still useful for them then it is clear they will only wait too because after all with the remaining contract that Gundogan currently has then they only have to wait for the end of the season to get Gundogan for free. Not to say Manchester City are stingy in this case but we can certainly judge where to force buying when Manchester City can get it for free.

I agree with you, Chelsea seems to have no clear management measures. Seen in the last few seasons, when Boehly spent quite a lot of money all that happened was chaos in choosing players to bring to Stamford Bridge. I think it's useless for Chelsea to have quite a lot of money but almost all the players bought do not meet expectations. Boehly should also evaluate the management's performance as a whole for Chelsea's existence.

From what i can see i think Todd Boehly is trying to restructure Chelsea and we all know that is not an easy thing to accomplish. The players bought are all talents from my observation but they still lack the perfect manager to bring out the best in them as a team. Todd Boehly doesn’t pick money from the ground so i think he knows what he is doing and definitely he would have a proper finance management, i think what he is doing is investing and in a few years he should profit from the investment.

Todd to my view is investing wrongly, football club management is not like every other conventional business organization and in the way he is going about buying players he may lose It eventually. Some of those players are not guaranteed to improve in form in the next two to five years,

many of them might even flop or run into a long standing injury. Restructuring a team doesn't call for an instant overhauling of the club squad down to their best players only to end up bring many average talents to the club. The painful sell of them all was kovacic a DM that is still young vibrant and solid in the midfield position, now in the t-shirt of Manchester City.

okay, Joao Felix may not be a natural striker by default but he's a forward and by that coach could structure him to his own pattern by modifying the formation in a way he could be playing as a false-9 . Though victor Osimhen's future is still uncertain as to where he would sign for whether PSG or Chelsea we don't know that yet.

It is quite simple to understand mate, the conditions and signing fee with the salary payment for Osimhen when compared to that of Joao Felix you'll find out that that of Joao is lighter a burden to easily bear, and as businessman Todd Boehly has got to go for Joao Felix believing he can still get same result with him as Osimhen could bring to the club. However, recalling on Joao Felix time on loan in Chelsea he was able to register just 4 goals in all the games he fixture but we're hoping there are a lot of improving changes with his performance now.

What I think Todd Boehly is doing in his buying of numerous players is that he intend to loan some of those players to make profit from them. He's just a man that sees players a business commodities.

From your explanation I have quite understood what is happening in the Chelsea management. But then I would have to advise Todd that he should be very careful of handling the Chelsea case at this moment. It is not all about business, he also has to consider the feelings of the fans who would want Chelsea to bounce back to the great club they used to be and the win matches every weekend. I could remember some seasons ago when Arsenal Wenger was in charge of Arsenal, they were more of business than football and it deprived the club numerous trophies that were supposed to go into their gallery. He should be very sure that this his approach will not backfire in the nearest future when the fans will begin to protest around the bridge.

I think Todd should be made to understand what he stands to lose if he chooses to do the business of buying of players and sending them out on loan when he is not having a balance team yeet and he should take a look at the Arsenal team just like you pointed out I believe he will consider what he is playing to do in his team Chelsea and how it is going to affect them now and in the nearest future. If the Chelsea football club does not bounce back to winning trophies and games some players will not be attracted to the team and the fans will not only protest but they will stop supporting the team since they will not be happy with the results the team will be getting every weekend knowing that the club is not getting better any time. If Todd succeed in what he plans to do it will surely come back to him and his team because he will end up struggling to win any trophy just like what is happening to Arsenal team over the past season.

With a large number of players, therefor this club has difficulty finding its best game. about Joao Felix who is now back at Chelsea cannot be a guarantee, but compared to the young players that Chelsea just bought, Joao Felix can be much better. He is willing to lower his salary very cheaply in order to be able to play at the club, so there is only one option that Joao Felix can do which is to give his best. However Chelsea problems are too many, not only about the players but this club is hit by management that cannot be trusted. Based on his first match, of course, many people were disappointed and blamed Todd Boehly for being too busy wasting money on useless players.

Buying too many players without results to show for it makes it difficult for fans and team management to trust your success in the team. I will not say that I’ll rate Enzo Maresca’s overall performance just after losing one game and also with a big team and on the first outing of the premier league. He has seen what the players he used that day can do, so he should go back to the drawing board and do the needful for the team or he’ll face more backlash from all corners as being a wasteful coach without any good thing to show for all the money spent.

Yes, the report stated that Barcelona terminated his contract based on mutual agreement and he is now a fee agent, he can now join any other team for free. The one season spent with them is a memorable one, but I don’t like how he turned back on them when he knows that they are struggling to sign players due to financial constraints. Nevertheless, Manchester City can be his next destination because that’s where he also wants to go.

How did he turned his back at them when they are in financial constraints? I thought it was a mutual agreement between them and he terminated his contract? Or maybe he was asking for increase in pay or so, I just don’t think the player is to be blamed. Their must be something we don’t know that lead to the termination of the contract. Good that he can join his former team back, he’s not that old not perform, I’ll say his prime period is still active and not yet over.

Pep is a wise coach, he decided to let players of old age leave the team and he knows how much he missed them because he is yet to find perfect replacement for them especially Gundogan which is why he didn’t say no to his return. Gundogan will not play more than two season before his retirement, or this return can be because he wanted to retire as a legend in the team.

What I think Todd Boehly is doing in his buying of numerous players is that he intend to loan some of those players to make profit from them. He's just a man that sees players a business commodities.

From your explanation I have quite understood what is happening in the Chelsea management. But then I would have to advise Todd that he should be very careful of handling the Chelsea case at this moment. It is not all about business, he also has to consider the feelings of the fans who would want Chelsea to bounce back to the great club they used to be and the win matches every weekend. I could remember some seasons ago when Arsenal Wenger was in charge of Arsenal, they were more of business than football and it deprived the club numerous trophies that were supposed to go into their gallery. He should be very sure that this his approach will not backfire in the nearest future when the fans will begin to protest around the bridge.
