That's not confirmed yet but it seems this time Saudis are trying to hire a bigger superstar player and they do not even have any limitations for ending offers for these players, unlike the European teams.
Kevin De Bruyne was the key player for Mancnshte City and he had an effective role in this team to make Manchester City try keeping him for a longer time but other than this, the Saudis are again trying to hire Kevin De Bruyne for their team.
It seems his agents are in Saudi Arabian since he is a 32-year-old player maybe he is thinking about ending his career in this country.

...... even so Manchester United that this team hasn't decided whether they will retain Ten Hag or Manchester United will be sack him so there is possibility for Stefano Pioli to become a manager of one of these clubs
In fact, there has been a lot of pressure for Man United to sack Ten Hag, and there are ultimatums to do so. However, so far, there has been no final decision on that. And it doesn't seem like it will be a big deal for Ten Hag. He believes that he has done his best at Man United by winning several trophies in these two seasons and also leading them to win the FA Cup this time by beating Man City. He thought that it wasn't bad, and it was really good. And he said that whatever his decision was, it didn't matter. Because he will go to another club and win a trophy with them.

What do you think about ten Hag's self-confidence? Well, yeah, there's no doubt that he's been very confident all this time, right? Haha



What makes us interested in his statement currently:
Quote
🚨 Ten Hag: “Two trophies in two seasons and three finals… not bad”.

“If they don’t want me anymore, I’ll go somewhere else and win trophies. That’s what I do”

Conte to Chelsea in this era is the wrong move and that will definitely send Chelsea closer to relegation; the squad is very younge and also expensive; Chelsea needs a good tactician and great manager to manage the squad, nagglesman comes to mind tbh

Conte won’t fit well at all

First of all, you're a bloody shit poster, and you literally have no idea how football works. The age of the coach cannot be used to judge how much success the coach will get.
So what is the age difference between Josep Pep Guardiola and Antonio Conte. You are just here to spam and write whatever you like and I don't have to worry myself over your shiit.

How can you say they'll be relegated with Antonio Conte? He is even far more better than any of the listed names to replace Mauricio Pochetino for next season.
Another good option would be Roberto De Zebri who recently left Brighton. These are solid tacticians of the game ans you have to out respect of their names.

Chelsea problems for me has to be Todd Boehly, he needs to maintain his role as co owner of the club and let those footballing directors do their job. The club has not seen improvement since he bought the club.

Who knows how true it is, Stefano Pioli wants a challenge in England. But it is not yet clear which teams are interested in Pioli as coach amidst several teams with vacant head coaching positions.

Stefano Pioli is reportedly studying English. This info is from Fabrizio Romano. I can understand that Pioli is sending a signal to several Premier League teams that he is ready to accept offers to manage any team that contacts him. Of course, if the agreement goes well between Pioli and the team that is interested in him.

Could Stefano Pioli go to Stamford Bridge?
Stefano Pioli finished his last match with Milan yesterday but unfortunately Milan only able to playing draw from relegation team Salernitana and if i am not mistaken he has spend 4 years at Milan and gets 1 Scudetto with this team and i have read this news too that recently Stefano Pioli was studying English and this probably showing Stefano Pioli next destination is Premier League and if this rumour is true then it's very interesting to know can he success or not if he train the team from outside Italy because during his career as a manager Stefano Pioli only spend his time to train Italian teams but so far he hasn't linked to any particular clubs in Premier League but currently Chelsea and Brighton has no manager even so Manchester United that this team hasn't decided whether they will retain Ten Hag or Manchester United will be sack him so there is possibility for Stefano Pioli to become a manager of one of these clubs

Somehow the top clubs can no longer find top coaches and everyone changes their coach almost every year because the performance just isn't right. Hansi Flick will not bring the desired success at Barcelona and yes back then he was successful with Bayern Munich but even I would have been successful with the squad from back then. When you consider that Real currently has a strong team and someone like Mbappe will be joining in the summer, I don't see any chance for Barcelona to win the title. Then we have the same game with Bayern Munich bringing in Kompany as coach who will also not be successful.

I think it is impossible to have stability in a place where there is constant rapid circulation. I think it is also impossible for teams that change coaches every year to achieve stability and success. Barcelona are already struggling with financial problems. Now they will struggle with instability in the tactical plan. If we say that Mbappe will also join Real Madrid next season, Barcelona may experience another lost season, unless a miracle happens. According to this picture, Real Madrid will strengthen their dominance in the Spanish La Liga for the next few seasons.

Crystal Palace are in possession for this incredible player and countless moments, he single-handedly deliver Crystal Palace with his stunning goals for the club. He's young and promising for longterm projects, perhaps with the sights from elite clubs, Manchester United and Chelsa. I'm a blue fan and would really persuade him to accept offers from the Blues because he will definitely have sufficient game time. Michael Akpovie Olise is talented footballer and have grown to become a top player for his club, let's see what happen to him next.

Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea are reported to really want Michael Olise, to be honest, this is a good opportunity for Crystal Palace to get big money from the sale of Olise, Olise as a striker is quite good, he is quite sharp in front of goal, Arsenal have to work hard to get his services , there is a big possibility for Arsenal to become EPL champions next season if they are successful in getting Olise, Arsenal's attack power is very weak.

Arsenal will clearly be able to provide new experience to Michael Olise because if he joins there, he will be able to play in the Champions League next season. However, it seems that what determines it is not Olise's wishes, but rather will be influenced by the amount of money that Crystal Palace can obtain from the deal, and which team really has the seriousness to sign Michael Olise. Whatever the result, it is still a good thing for Michael Olise's career because both Chelsea, Man United, and Arsenal are good teams and could be the right place for him to continue to improve, and get bigger wages.
He is 22 years old and has 10 goals and 6 assists in 19 games in the Premier League. Moreover, he does this with Crystal Palace. He might have better stats next year with Arsenal, Chelsea or Manchester United. The team that wants to transfer him will of course have to pay a very high transfer fee to his team. Important transfers are being discussed for Chelsea next year. If they can achieve these, they will be an important team for the Premier League championship next year.

He could ruin his career in the last two teams, as rude as it sounds, but as long as they are run by managers who are sinking their teams, there is no point in moving to those teams. Both teams will probably have a new coach in the new season, but it is better for him not to move to such unstable teams, especially when there will be new managers who are not proven....
The performances of the last two teams in the coming years are actually important. They can take their performance to the next level, create the best squad and compete for the championship next year. In this case, perhaps one of the people who will contribute to the team will be Michael Olise. They have to choose the best option together with the manager to be in the best places next year. It's critical option time for Olise.

Has  Hansi Flick already been named the new coach of Barcelona? Is it already official?

The possibility is very big, even looking at the current rumors, Hansi Flick is even willing to earn a lower salary than Xavi received in the last 2 seasons and there is even a strong possibility now that in the next few days we will probably see the introduction of Hansi Flick as Barcelona's helmsman. next season.

To be honest, Barcelona's drama, especially Laporta and Hansi Flick is actually not that bad but what I am paying attention to now is how their performance will be in the future because after all, with a new coach then of course Barcelona must be ready for a change in players and with Barcelona's current condition, especially when looking at the brand's movement in last season's passive transfers, whether that is can it still happen? because for now they still have to worry about cash balances and clearly this will have more of an impact if there is a change in players later.

When a player has been at a club for too long, there will definitely be a decline in performance. Frenkie has been at Barcelona since he was 23 years old and is now 27 years old, which means he is almost 30 years old and it is normal for his performance to decline, in fact he is not a player. The good thing is that he is a player with mediocre quality even since he was at Ajax, so I think people have overestimated his potential since he was in the news at that time.

I don't think Bayern Munich will necessarily want to accept this player with his mediocre qualities. Bayern already has several productive midfielders such as Jamal Musiala, Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka, they play quite a good role as midfielders which is what the club needs so I think what is needed Bayern Munich is currently just the right coach because Bayern Munich already has the best players at its club.
Frankie de Jong has not declined in performance this season, it's injury that hindered him to perform full season for Barcelona. The age of 27 is a peak age for any football player, he is just unlucky with the team's situation with many injuries. Barcelona was provenly maintaining good performances when De Jong and other players came back from injuries.

I believe Bayern will sign De Jong confidently if there is any chance to bring him to Allianz Arena. He is the type of player needed at Bayern right now after Goretzka showing his declining performances in Bayern's Midfield. Bayern need a player who is able to control the tempo of the play, and De Jong has a capability to be a tempo controller as a pivot in Bayern's Midfield. Kimmich has said about this tactical issue in Bayern team, and De Jong is the right player for the role.

They can also look at Antonio Conte who is vacant. He is a good tactician and will help these talented players.

Conte would absolutely be a great choice. Maybe even the best one. Because as you know Conte already has a history with Chelsea. He made Chelsea Premier League and FA Cup champions once each.  Smiley

I think the only problem now if Chelsea are considering Conte for next season is where they must be able to convince and reduce Conte's sometimes uncontrolled emotions.

Conte is a good option even if compared to some other rumors between Chelsea and the coach then indeed Conte is the most normal and best to date but Conte's problem is that he doesn't really like the old stuck so he only wants to meltih when what he thinks is good looks good and does not hesitate to leave if indeed the plan he implemented does not work well for his club.

Therefore he did not last long with a club because the longest he coached a club was 2 seasons so that this could indeed be a condition that was not very good if indeed Chelsea hoped for a long term.
The case of Tottenham before the Postecoglou era should be a consideration that in the end if they want Conte to be at Chelsea then they must be prepared with conditions like this.

Conte is a very discipline man with a lot of specifications on what he wants so the management of Chelsea have to understand this, I believe he has coach this Chelsea team before of which he had a good spell not until everything starts falling apart but thier is no doubt that the man is good coach and that's exactly what Chelsea needs now, someone who is well experienced and knows the job because if they get anyone who is termed with just the name of a coach they might probably be more messed up than they already are.

Has  Hansi Flick already been named the new coach of Barcelona? Is it already official?

I have heard that he is going to join Barcelona as the new coach. I have also heard that he is going to have a two year deal with Barcelona. I don’t know if that is true and I also do not know if he has already joined Barcelona or not.

First of all, I do not agree with the decision that Barcelona have made about sacking Xavi.
Secondly, I am not sure about this coach that they are trying to bring in, or they have already brought in. I think it is going to be hard for any coach to bring in good results without spending a good amount of money. And when you do not have money to spend, it is better to keep the coach that you have who is bringing in decent results. But the Barcelona authority seems to think otherwise. I hope this decision of Laporte does not backfire.

Considering the current financial crises at Barcelona and the club management recent issues with their sacked manager Xavi Hernandez, I don't think it'll be an easy task for any manager to succeed at the club anytime soon. Xavi Hernandez was a Barcelona player for over two decades and perfectly understands the philosophy of the club so i think he was able tp achieve the little success he had because of how well he understands the club's style of football.
For Hansi Flick that's never managed a Spanish team before, I think it'll be very difficult for him to succeed at Barcelona. Hansi Flick if we all can remember had won the UEFA Champions League title in the same season he won the German Bundesliga title with Barcelona so he's well experienced when it comes to managing a big European club so it's also possible that he'll end up surprising many of us who probably didn't believe in him but I personally think that it'll be very difficult for him to win trophies in his new club

Frenkie de Jong had recently had a relationship with Barcelona. In the last season, Frenkie de Jong had an effective role in this team and he was the reason for Barcelona to have good performance in many games.
But since he got injured many times during this season he was mostly out of the squad and this is a reason for Barcelona to be disappointed about Frenkie de Jong.
He had some offers from Manchester United during last summer but he decided to stay in Barcelona but now it seems Bayern Munich is trying to use the chance and they want to hire this player since Barcelona is probably not going to keep him for a longer time anymore.


Frenkie De Jong when he was signed to Barcelona from Ajax  was one of the most talked about European youngsters at that moment but just after he joined the club, his form and performance reduced. I don't want to believe that Barcelona's style of football was the reason behind his drop but whatever be the reason, I think he just have to leave the club if he seriously wants to ressurect his dying career once again.
Bayern Munich is one of the biggest clubs in Europe and now that they have a new young manager in Vincent Kompany, I think the Netherlands international will excel at Bayern Munich if he joins them this summer. De Jong is without doubt a very young player but if he doesn't start living up to his potentials from next season, we might just consider him as an average player.
When a player has been at a club for too long, there will definitely be a decline in performance. Frenkie has been at Barcelona since he was 23 years old and is now 27 years old, which means he is almost 30 years old and it is normal for his performance to decline, in fact he is not a player.

Yeah De Zerbi is another candidate who might be a good replacement. I said Xavi because of thinking that he isn't actually a bad manager. He has managed Barcelona for less than 3 years time so he isn't very experienced.

However Xavi looks like a manager who knows how to work with young talents. He is giving the chances they need for their development. Besides Barcelona actually got a La Liga and Super Cup titles in the previous season. This season wasn't good enough but there are always ups and downs for most teams.  Smiley

Anyways, when it comes to the reason of Pochettino's sacking it is hard to tell. It was a meaningless decision of the chairman.
He has a good knowledge of the Premier League and as well other coaches, he also had a good first season with Brighton but wasn't able to win something but then he qualified them for the European Europa League Competition for the very first time. Xavi Hernandez doesn't have that experience, he will need a season to settle down and understand things well. He has a good knowledge of football and all that but bringing him to Chelsea is not something I feel will benefit both sides in thr long run.

They can also look at Antonio Conte who is vacant. He is a good tactician and will help these talented players.

Roberto De Zebri also knows how to work with youngins, same way he with Shakhtar Donetsk and Brighton. He already expressed his desires to work in the Premier League Competition again immediately he parted ways with Brighton.

Todd Boehly should be smoking crack and stuff.
Todd Boehly done another attempt to bring instability at the Chelsea, and he sacked Pochettino while he has done good job in his first season which bring them into better spot and team having good depth which is help for the next season now who is coming it's not important because things are going to be instable with this decision.

Now who is coming it's also important because we are having a long list of available coaches which are looking for the job and few are expecting Xavi which could be good choice but still question is can he do things which are important for the Todd Boehly instead of having good result De Zebri could be also good as he is already having good experience of Premier League teams and done good job at the Brighton.

Erik ten Hag was not impressed with Arne Slot's Feyenoord in 2023/24.
Manchester United's coach believes that Peter Bosz's PSV team deservedly became Eredivisie champions and actually deserved more in the domestic KNVB Cup, while Feyenoord did not make a very good impression on him.

Source: https://www.footballtransfers.com/en/transfer-news/nl-eredivisie/2024/05/liverpool-transfer-news-man-utd-erik-ten-hag-arne-slot-feyenoord

Look who's talking. He is talking as if he is the best coach in the world. I understand why someone could say this about the slot. But at the same time, he (Ten Hag) has to understand that he has not been impressive since he has joined Manchester United. So he cannot possibly pass on these type of comments about another coach. What about him being absolute shit?

What about him dragging Manchester United into the mud? The whole world sees him as unimpressive. Even his own fans and even his own players do not want him at Manchester United. What about that? And let’s be clear I am not trying to defend Arne slot by doing this. I am just trying to figure out or make sense of why a coach who is a failure himself is calling another coach a failure.
That's the funny thing about this man, he has some kind of big ego that drives me crazy sometimes and that's the same ego that lead to him and cristiano Ronaldo having clash at Manchester united that he was player. A man who hasn't clean the dirt in his own backyard is out there pointing fingers to others that obviously doing well more than him.

If anything he should sit back and reflect on his supposedly glamourous career at Manchester united and I say this with a lot of sarcasm because almost everyone today that ten hag at united has obviously done more damage than good to the club although he is still bragging that he is leaving though with atleast a trophy but the spoils done to the club is far way bigger than the good stuffs.

It seems to me that ten Hag is not so bad, two seasons, two titles, these are better results than Arteta, of course, a very big drawback of this season is that Manchester United were left without the Champions League next season, for such a team this is a big miss. Ten Hag is not the best coach, that is true, but he has flashes of very good play, so there is definitely potential in him, another question is whether he will have time at Manchester United to continue his work.
A coach he would be confident in being asked about his greatness then Erik Ten Hag said that, I think Arteta is more honorable because he was able to compete for the Premier League for two consecutive seasons while Erik Ten Hag only won the FA cup once, but many people compare about how many trophies he got.

I think he has a lot of internal problems with his players so that it does not become a solid squad that he holds, maybe if he is not stubborn I am sure Manchester United will be even more ferocious, it's just that Erik Ten Hag's principles are higher if you don't go along with him you will be ostracized.
