Odsonne Edouard is indeed a talented young player, starting his senior career at PSG and after that moving to Celtic was the best decision.
Since Odsonne Edouard found his best game at Celtic, it's no wonder Crystal Palace bought him. I agree with you, Odsonne Edouard should have
got a better team. Because playing for Crystal Palace will be difficult to score goals, because Odsonne Edouard's position as a striker requires
good assists. And I don't see Crystal Palace having a player who can provide many assists to Odsonne Edouard. But maybe the positive thing is
that Odsonne Edouard will get a lot of playing time, which is exactly what young players need.

I also agree that he deserves to play at a stronger club. However, it is good for him to play here also. Because as you said, he will play in the starting eleven most probably. And he will play for very long minutes. It is a very good opportunity for him to show himself in the biggest league of Europe (I think Grin

). C. Palace are not doing good. But if he proves his talent here also, then he would definitely get offers from bigger teams and his value would increase really highly.

Celtic announced that they have completed Odsonne Edouard's transfer to Crystal Palace for £14m. He has signed a four-year deal. He is still 23 years old and he had nice years at Celtic. He scored many goals despite his young age. For example, he got 22 goals and 6 assists in 40 matches in the last season. And he scored 2 goals in 4 matches this season also. He has a good potential but I don't think that C. Palace is the right place for him. He deserves a better team.

David Luiz is now without a club? He's quitting Arsenal FC and no one has taken him? Something's not right. In his career there were €120 million in transfer fees, more than any other central defender in the world. At the age of 34, the Brazilian is available on a free transfer. His expiring contract with Arsenal FC will not be extended and that was already certain in May this year. There are still 2 years possible to play at a good level.

David Luiz is still a preferrable centre-back for many clubs to be honest. He is 34 years old now but it is not a too old age for a defender. He is an experienced player and some smaller teams would make use of him really nicely in their starting eleven. But maybe they are afraid of the salary amount he would want. He played at big clubs so he might demand a high salary.

Is a good move for Barca, Griezmann has a huge salary around 35m€ yearly with taxes if I can recall correctly.

Bad deal for Barça in general.
They weren't supposed to buy him in the first place. He's probably one of the players that took a huge hit on their revenue

It just goes to show how stupid the Barcelona board is. If the club and coach knew Griezeman wasn't in their plans for the season, why did they wait until now to loan him out when they needed to drop at least one player to accommodate Messi's new contract a few weeks ago?

Giving him back to the defending champions is a bad decision, despite the fact that his Barcelona career has been up and down since his big money move, and he could return to A. Madrid after his loan spell.

Lol nice nickname you have Cheesy

Anyway, he seems to be a finished player after the huge misses he did back on days in PSG and Braziel.

It was no surprise at all he ended his carrier.

Anyway, without a contract, he can join any league outside the transfer market window.

What serious club would you want to take him up? Grin

He's not been good since he left Chelsea. In fact, Arsenal being the average club it has been in the last few years didn't shock me when they signed him.

Back on subject, Saul to Chelsea seems complete. Loan with an option to buy, Atletico really wanted to get rid of him. Chelsea needed an extra man in midfield, I don't really like Saul but a good deal for them this late in the deadline.

Chelsea needed an extra man in the midfield? If somebody asked me I would say they are more than covered on all positions and even have too many players for rotation. Granted most of them are more attacking midfielders or wingers but surly Mount can play proper midfield and they still have: Kante, Jorghinho and Kovačić from first squad rotation, and Loftus Cheek as looking for his chance.

Griezmann to Atletico, loan with an option to buy for 40 mil Euro.
On paper looks like a no-brainer, great business by Atletico. He really did not have a great time in Barcelona, with him Atletico is probably a step closer to atacking the title. Maybe that's why they were pushing Saul to leave the club today.

I just checked why the contract is for only 2 years and wow - Griezmann is already 30 years old. Overall expected so much more from him.

The previous president (Josep Bartomeu) really made a huge mess of the club, honestly. Perharps Barcelona are trying to get whatever they can off Griezmann, since he was not able to live up to expectations, but given the situation of the club this season, I don't think that's by any means a smart, even if the club is not making Atletico stronger the sale, they're surely making themselves a weaker team.

I hope the deal falls through by all means, and Saul to Chelsea is already a completed deal.

He's past he's best already, it's high time he retires from professional football.
Maybe a move to any Brazilian league,as well Chinese league.
He performed poorly towards the end of the premier league last season.

When he was at Chelsea I really liked Luiz but times have changed...

I hope he finds a club that is willing to pay him a lot before he retires because he is not young anymore. btw, Luiz's answer to Jamie is absolutely spot on

Quote

"It's funny, some people talk about how to win the Premier League when they've never won it themselves," Luiz told the Daily Mail. "Jamie Carragher has never won the Premier League."

"They didn't analyze me properly. I don't want to waste my time on that anyway," said David Luiz, responding to criticism from Jamie Carragher.

Honestly getting Ronaldo "so he doesn't go to City" is a freaking marvel, if United can do that then I suggest they get everyone City tries to get, at least they could make a lot of money from selling them a bit later to City Cheesy

. I do not think that this is purely about just Ronaldo, it is a situation where they managed to find a player they could get for cheap that could score a ton of goal, I mean Ronaldo played here before and yes he is a club legend that's true, but if I could get some 17 year old kid from somewhere for cheap and he gives me 20 goals this season?

I am doing that too, who cares about legend or not, I need players who can provide something on the field. That's what Ronaldo can do, at least another 2 seasons as well because he is not aging like all the other players, dude is a great magnificent player and he will definitely score a lot of goals.

Everton have loaned Moise Kean to Juventus. After selling Ronaldo to Manchester United, Juventus were in search of a good player to fill his place. They first wanted to loan Eden Hazard from Real Madrid. And actually, Real Madrid were also thinking of loaning him to a club to open space for Mbappe as far as I know. However, Mbappe transfer is not happening right now. So, they wouldn't like to sell Hazard too. Therefore, Juventus started looking for another player but they had a limited time as the transfer window was nearly closing. And they decided to get Kean again for the season. He is only 21 and quite talented. He can help the team a lot with his goals.

Still one and a half hours to go util the transfer period is closed.

wrong. 6 hours to go

It's been quite a busy day, haven't it ? I wonder what these teams making bids now have been doing all summer, stalking ?!

One of the deals I never saw coming was Saul to Chelsea, that literally came out of nowhere, as I felt Chelsea are a complete team with multiple options in every part of the pitch and are ready for the new season... As for Barcelona I wonder they are doing, letting Griezmann go would be such a joke, they've already let go of two players without replacement, Dembele is never fit, Ansu Fati can't be relied upon given he's just returned from a long term injury, signing Olmo would be an outright waste of unavailable funds tbh... I'll rather just make do with this team, savage as much as possible from the season first then come prepare better ahead of January or next Summer window.

It is said that Real Madrid have pulled out of negotiations to sign PSG striker Kylian Mbappe. The reason why is of course that PSG didn't accept even an offer worth €200m. They made a huge mistake I believe. Because they will have to let him go without a transfer fee in January or in the next summer. In fact, they would have made a lot of profit by selling him for €200m as they bought him from Monaco for €145m. They are also aware of this of course but I still think that it is a big mistake.

PSG believe that with Mbappe in the squad, they have a better chance of winning the Champions League this season. In addition, they hope they can persuade Mbappe to renew the contract. Time will tell whether they are right or not. Hope Mbappe will make the right.

I also think PSG do need a contribution from Mbappe to win the Champions League trophy this season. Therefore a big offer from Real Madrid was
rejected, and I also believe PSG will try to make another offer to extend Mbappe's contract. But I believe Mbappe's decision to leave PSG is
very strong, although until now I'm still confused about the real reason Mbappe wants to leave PSG. But surprises can happen, Mbappe will changes
his mind and finally agrees to extend his contract, or Mbappe will stay out of PSG for free next year. The curiosity of many people may be answered
in the next year.

It's too late to reorganize the whole Arsenal team it will absolutely be counterproductive, they just need gradual fortification of all the departments, if they did it once they might face relegation, I think both their midfield and defence are not really performing, those areas need urgent turn around, no dependable defensively midfielder to cover up their porous defenders, likewise Leno has been conceding cheap goals also needed to be replaced, above all Arteta had been very poor tactically both in player selection and changes.

In principle, you're right, but I would not touch the goalkeeper, he does his job perfectly. Many times I watched games with him, and he saved a lot of chances. Moreover, the success of a dry match is not only in the goalkeeper, but also in defense. If the defense had played better, Leno would have done better. After all, any goalkeeper is powerless when the opponent creates one hundred percent chances, it's the defense that is to blame. So about defense and midfield I agree with you. I think even transfers are not necessary, just find a good bunch of players in the team (for example, take into account those who sit on the bench).
