Eredivisie isn't really that competitive compared to other European leagues we have, you'll always see Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord, and AZ on the top four since there is really no competition going, that's why these teams can sell their top players all the time since they know what they have is enough to maintain their spots in the league.

The eredivisie can indeed be a less competitive league, but with Ajax and Ziyech perfomances in the champions league, i can say he is a quality addition to the chelsea squad.



 For Ziyech moving to Chelsea I don't know why he agreed to it in the first place since I don't think he will be one of the main guys for the team considering that they already have a lot of good players in the position he main plays. If he don't do anything to become the real deal for the club his playing time and role would diminish quickly and he won't be that top prospect that other teams will be targeting.

With Ziyech being a wide forward, Pedro Ageing, Willian Uncertain, Barkley average. it is the right step by chelsea and Lampard

Potential target for Liverpool, Timo Werner.  If LFC acquires that guy then Mane - Werner - Salah would be one of the best (or could even be the best) front three in Europe.  

And Klopp would def love him.  He loves to run.  Smiley

Ziyech is an amazing player and he is a great signing for Chelsea.
In my opinion, he is what Chelsea needs, a young and talented midfielder with attacking preferences in his playstyle.
I watched some Ajax's games this season and I can say that his crosses are deadly!

But I doubt that these players can help Barca much.
Yeah, it's not like the lack of goals is the main problem...Barcelona are simply a one-man team, that's the real issue.

^  I heard...  Is he really good?  I don't really follow Dutch football.
Ziyech? You haven't seen him in the Champions League? He's like Mahrez 2.0, left footed, extremelly skilled, great ball control, passing...40M is a bargain, Chelsea are signing a top-class player.

Potential target for Liverpool, Timo Werner.  If LFC acquires that guy then Mane - Werner - Salah would be one of the best (or could even be the best) front three in Europe.
Can you imagine the counter attacks? The three of them could very well run the 100 meters in less than 10 secs  Cheesy

@tomahawk9 I’ll agree with your analysis about Ziyech as he’s a top class player, and I’m completely shocked as to how did Chelsea get him for such a bargain price. Also I’m sincerely hoping that Liverpool do not get their target, because they’re unstoppable at this moment and if they get Werner then they’ll become completely invincible. According to various news reports Jack Grealish is keen to seal his transfer to Manchester United, and this is exciting news for Manchester United fans.

There is only one problem with that. How many teams will be willing to go out attacking against Liverpool? They will always have their chances from high pressing but that is not a conventional counter attack and maybe speed is not crucial factor.

I actually quite like Firmino in top of Liverpool attack, he brings a bit of different class and magic to their play. In other words, Werner is a great player but I think he looks for similar kind of open spaces like Salah and Mane and there could be problems with that. Mane and Salah are so good because Firmino is willing to drop back, stretch the defensive line and clear more space for them while simultaneously feed them trough balls.

It is reported by this peculiar reporter https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1227701319596683269?s=20 that chelsea fc has agreed a deal with Ziyech and he is to join in the summer.

What do you think about the deal ? Will he replace pedro/willan instantly ? or Odoi will be pushed to perform even better ?

And somehow, i feel chelsea deal for Ziyech will free the way for manchester united to get Jordan Sancho this summer.

It has now been confirmed that Ziyech is a Chelsea player

He is going to be a great addition to the Chelsea team, and also going to provide more squad depth.
Perhaps Chelsea can launch a epl challenge come next season.

Good player Ziyech, will be a good signing for Chelsea if they can seal that. I don’t think Sancho will go to Man Utd, why would he? They’re a Europa League team atm & they might not even qualify for that.

So now that Dembele (FC Barcelona) was confirmed to miss the rest of the season (out for 6 months), the spanish club can finally sign a replacement even though the transfer window is closed. But, they can only sign a player only from La Liga or a free agent. There's a lot of rumours going around, here are some of the main candidates:

Willian Jose (Real Sociedad), Angel, (Getafe), Loren Moron (Real Betis). Any Barca fans here? Who would you like to have on your team?
I have posted same thing yesterday - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53820050. Speaking about these names mentioned doesn't sounds solid. Lucas Perez had some solid seasons in mediacore La Liga teams, but didn't show anything impressive on higher level. So, I would pick between Angel and Loren. But I doubt that these players can help Barca much.

Pep doesn’t usually stick around at one club for too long. I think I said before I can see him going to Juve this summer, if not the year after. Man City need a big rebuild & I don’t think he’ll stick around to do it.
Pep has it in him of not staying put for too long, I don't know if that is about to change with city, it will depend on his love for the team, how long will they be able to keep him happy, this are the big questions that'll determine how much time pep has to stay in city, pep hates to lose, if they have another terrible season such as this one again(could still turn out to be a good season though, in other competitions other than the EPL)then he'll not be staying longer than then.
Manchester City's penalty shall come later or sooner.
?? I'm out of the loop. What penalty?
I think he's talking about the champions league ban, i thought that was resolved already?

Til when is Pep's contract at City?  Til 2021?  Pretty sure he'll not leave til then.  He owes Ferran Soriano and Txiki Berigistain.  He wouldn't be enjoying a career like he's having now without them imho.

Edit:  But I'd def want see Ronaldo + Messi + Pep!!!  Lolol.

Yes till 2021 but...

City is not doing great, Juventus and Sarri are not happy, Pep lost Arteta, and last but not least the Manchester City's penalty shall come later or sooner.

Edit:  Oh and Pep to Juve rumors swirling around again.  Grin
From what i've been reading, Juve are willing to give him a blank check  Shocked  source [in spanish] here.

Am I the only one who think Ronaldo would never want to play next to Messi? He has such a huge ego that he wouldn't allow his biggest rival take the spotlight away from him... Same goes with Messi, tho.

Will feel embarrassed when Coutinho returns to Liverpool. Didn't Klopp ever say to Coutinho that "don't go from liverpool, because you will succeed here". And it was proven, after Coutinho left liverpool. What happened to Liverpool, they are terrible right now. So there is no place back for Coutinho in Liverpool.
Yes i remember those opinions before that Klopp already says with many times that he suggest to Coutinho do not go to Barcelona because he need him and Klopp says too in Liverpool he will became an star player but in Barcelona he will became an mediocre player and seems Klopp statements was happened that Coutinho has been failed to compete with other players and Barcelona also confirm Coutinho as the failed purchase

^  Yup def not.

Anyway what do you think of Coutinho leaving Barca (at a discount), with LFC, City, Chelski and United (Lol) interested?  Would you guys welcome him back?  I'd like to see him play for either LFC or City tbh (esp. with David Silva retiring soon.  He should fit right in there).

Edit:  Oh and Pep to Juve rumors swirling around again.  Grin

I can see Coutinho at City, possibly. I don’t think Klopp would take him back tbh. He feigned injury to force the move to Barca. I’m not sure Klopp is the type of guy who does second chances.

If Pep doesn’t win the CL this season then I could see him joining Juve. I don’t know if he will stick around at City for the rebuild they clearly require.

In addition to that, it seems that Phillipe Coutinhos market value just got lowered. There are several rumors in the German newspapers that Barcelona is willing to sell him for about €80m instead of €120m. However FC Bayern is still not interested because of his low performances this season. It is more likely they are saving money for Leroy Sané and Kai Havertz.

Philippe Coutinho's option to buy is reduced from €120m to around €80m. However, the Brazilian didn't convince with his performances and is therefore unlikely to stay [SportBild]
Coutinho is still not that old of a player for his age he is yet to reach his peak as he is 27yo now but his adventures outside the EPL looks to be  a failure  both Barcelona and Bayern are not satisfied by his performances while Barcelona is happy to let him go for £77m I see only Chelsea an Manchester United interested in him for the time being but we all know man United are linked with every player right their they just signed Fernandes and they are heavily linked to get James Maddison and Jack Grealish so I don't think they will bring him if they land one of those targets. While Chelsea could get him If Lampard thinks he is worthy enough the money they will be paying off.
