I don’t see him taking sides here. I don’t understand what everyone means by Messi is naturally talented and Ronaldo is an hardworking player, have you watched Ronaldo during his Sporting days and his first time at Manchester United? He was pure talent that frightens every defender and throughout those years he hasn’t started his hard work but still managed to beat the best players around those years to win his first Ballon D’Or.

No doubts Messi is more naturally talented but He pushed himself to the limit not because he is not talented but  because he just wanted to be the best he build on the mentality and the consistency is something not everyone can maintain.

Let’s not argue this but i can see you are clearly taking sides as a Messi fan, there are lots of goals Ronaldo gifted to his teammates despite people calling him greedy and full of himself and yet none of his teammates have ever come out to say negative things about him. I’d say it’s probably because you don’t watch Ronaldo as much as you watch Messi.

There are great players who couldn’t win everything in football and are still regarded as a great player so Messi is just one of the few lucky players to win almost everything in football so I don’t think there such thing as completing football. Or if Mbappe ends up winning the champions League and Ballon D’or is it safe to say Mbappe is up there with Messi and have completed football.

Messi is a great player just like Ronaldo but belittling Ronaldo because he is yet to win the World Cup despite his achievements is wrong.

Yes that's right. Real Madrid is very smart and very experienced in recruiting players in recent years, they can even get players for free and have a very good impact on the team. Just look, in the last few years, Real Madrid has managed to recruit several players for free, such as David Alaba 2021, Antonio Rudiger 2022, and Kylian Mbappe 2024. Maybe next season they will also get defender Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich for free.

When buying players, Perez takes a direct approach to his players. Currently Alphonso Davies only has 1 year remaining on his contract and it is very likely that he will not extend his contract, so Real Madrid could get him for free if Bayern Munich does not sell him immediately. Real Madrid wants to buy at a price below that offered by Bayern Munich.

If we talk about Barcelona, ​​they failed to transfer players and had a financial crisis, but they bought players at high prices and high salaries so that Barcelona's finances are currently unstable. Next season Real Madrid will still dominate LaLiga because their squad is better than Barcelona at the moment.

Chelsea sold Jamal Musiala for just £170,000 to Bayern when he was 16.

It is very unlikely that Real Madrid will recruit Haaland after they succeeded in bringing in Mbappe, after all these two players cannot be played at the same time because they play in the same position. It's enough for Real Madrid to bring in a quality striker, what is needed now is all in Mbappe.
Real Madrid front line is very complete, they also have quality reserve players who can play in the same area. Real Madrid may bring in one or two more players before the transfer window closes, but it is certain that the player they will bring in will not be a striker because it is no longer their priority.

I think there is no need for Haaland when there is Mbappe. Having so many star players in the team also has its disadvantages. The demands of the players can be very high, and each player can spend every position generously to stand out. I think they can finish this transfer season with a very good defender instead of Haaland and an excellent player instead of Kroos.

I'd support Chelsea releasing him if Mudryk's price was ten times less than when they purchased him, because of that, chelsea would lose pennies on their investment in him, but the problem is that 100 million was paid by chelsea for mudryk from shaktar, and the blues will suffer a huge loss on mudryk because his price may have dropped significantly, if chelsea decides to sell him. Apparently, there's no club that is keen to acquire him from chelsea either.

Regarding Olise, the Blues have been in talks with Palace. Chelsea's plan to include Medueke and Chalobach in the Olise move may now be reconsidered by Palace. The talks between Chelsea and Palace are still underway, and no final agreement has been reached by these clubs. To recap, Olise's price is rather high, but he may be worth it, and a final agreement is all that is required to complete the transfer of Olise to the Blues. 

I think Mudrick's departure will only be worthwhile if the new player is paid a reasonable wage and bought for reasonable money, unlike Mudrick. They spent too much money on him and he clearly didn't justify it, 7 goals can't be worth 100 million. I think if he was bought 10 times cheaper he would probably fully justify his cost. Oh and also the possible transfer of Oliseh would be nice because looking at him from the outside he is playing much better

Chelsea is interested in Belgium striker Lois Openda.
Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.
Manchester United is doing a talk for goalkeeper Josep Martinez, even if Inter Milan already agreed personal terms with the player.

What if this rush to get Mbape in 2021 wasn't part of his campaign strategy and to win leagues for Real Madrid? What if all this pressure to get Mbape to Real Madrid project was really what Real Madrid management like because looks at it from this angle, the pressure to sign him started when they won Champions League and they signed him when they won another Champions League and with losing only single match for the whole season, Anceloti would careless about needing that boy from beginning.

Since he is here already, it will help the team as well because Rodrigo, Vinicious, Bellingham and some other good players in the team are already filling lonely at the top, the presence of Mbape will make them insecure about their future performance and will like to improve more on their games creating a super competition within them and when they have any match, they will murder any team.

The speculation about the future of Mykhailo Mudryk in Chelsea was appears since this winter because since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk was unable to performing well just like he was showed when playing at Shakhtar Donetsk and some people considers Chelsea has got scammed because the transfer fee when they bought Mykhailo Mudryk was very expensive so people have been wondering whether Mykhailo Mudryk is really worth to that price or not considering since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk didn't give any significant progress with this team

I have to says Mykhailo Mudryk was failed to adapt with Chelsea and Premier League so that's why he was unable to reach to his top performance with Chelsea but i think Chelsea shouldn't be rush to decided whether they will sell Mykhailo Mudryk or not because he still have potention to develop his skill in Chelsea and actually last season Mykhailo Mudryk performance is better but indeed he still cannot help Chelsea to reach to top 4 position on League Standing however according to the rumour if Chelsea is really want to sell him then probably Arsenal can save his career

Haaland and Mbappe cannot play together at Real Madrid, firstly because of ego (no one wants to be in the shadow), and secondly for economic reasons. Real already has 3 of the most expensive players from the top 5. It would be strange to add Haaland here. They all have big salaries so it would be difficult from a financial point of view.
If we talk only about the game, then a scheme where Haaland plays the central striker, Mbappe plays a little lower, and then Vinnie, Bellingham, Rodrigo, then this would be ideal.

Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.

I heard talks about Osimhen wanting to move to Chelsea. I don't know if the team is willing to sign him or they have other plans with Openda and other players potentially?

It looks like Chelsea still haven't given up on registering players who really shine at the club and this means the second time after Chelsea also completed Nkunku from Leipzig and now they will again target Nkunku's replacement last season for Leipzig although surely this will require a large enough nominal to bring Openda. It's just that for Openda it's clearly a little complicated even though there are indeed some rumors that say that Openda could have left with an offer of 70 million but I don't feel this will go smoothly for Chelsea.

Actually, in my opinion, pairing Mbappe and Haaland in one team will not be effective, maybe you have seen that with Messi, Nyemar and Mbappe as an illustration that PSG cannot be successful in European competitions. There will be a lot of ego created if 2 players like Mbappe and Haaland join. This is not what Ancelotti wants, Real Madrid stability needs to be maintained, not all great players need to be in Madrid if it ends up destroying the existing balance. Just having Mbappe is enough to complement Real Madrid's front line, and let Haaland remain opposite Mbappe. Because in this modern era of football there is competition for the best candidates in each team. Man City and Real Madrid, keep in mind that if Mbappe and Haaland had to share a place, would that be acceptable to them? The status of a striker is to have his own place as a core player. And I'm sure Mbappe or Haaland are not willing to share playing time.

Come on Mbappe that's enough, there's no need for everyone to be in Madrid, there are still lots of other teams in Europe, don't let the world of football be biased against one team. Because we need competition, not collections.

Real Madrid's president is a very experienced man who spends money to recruit better players, which is why the club is still functioning well and winning trophies back-to-back. That is what Barcelona lacks; they do not have the money to get crucial players, which is why they do poorly in league competition. Real Madrid's addition of Mbappe has made them a formidable opponent for any club. Madrid no longer needs any transfers; the only thing they lack is a striker, but now that they have Mbappe, they will not buy any more players, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win the La Liga title next season. Since Barcelona did not make any changes still they will still probably perform weak but let see if the new coach will do something good to make the team stronger.

Everybody knows Mbappe is a superstar. But he's just one piece of the puzzle. Ancelotti has to figure out how to make the greatest players in the world communicate. Thats the challenge, and thats what makes it fun. You have Vini, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Joselu - all hungry for goal. And who's gonna fill Kroos' shoes? Thats a big question. But thats what makes a great team, right? Everyone's gotta step up.

Ancelotti is no fool now, that much is clear. He's gonna find the right formation. He will change, adjust. Possibly there is more possession or counterattacking. Who knows?
