I cannot agree with you. I think Ancelotti is not giving Joselu enough opportunities this season because Joselu is not part of Ancelotti's long term plan. Ancelotti wants Madrid's young players to become experienced. This is why Ancelotti gave Vini and ROdrygo plenty of opportunities at the start of the season. While Vini and Rodrygo are performing well now, we haven't seen that much from these two players at the start of the season. Also I don't think Joselu is a worse player than Rodrygo. Joselu has the ability to score goals. With enough help from Ascelotti, he could have scored a lot of goals this season.




Usually Real Madrid does not waste money. If Real Madrid management add Mbappe and Endrick to the squad then I don't think ROdrygo will be much needed in Madrid squad. At the same time I think this because, several rumors I have seen that Premier League teams are now interested in adding ROdrygo to the squad. Madrid management may also be interested in selling Rodrygo if they receive an offer for a bigger amount.

That's just your single opinion about Eric ten hang though, because in as much as am not a Manchester united fan, I am looking at Manchester united from a different angles altogether, and I think he is not that bad as you are making it looks like, I say so because, just take a look at Manchester united without being sentimental, you are going to observe that Manchester united problem is way much more than a manager, so you can't just pin all the blame on him.

Since sir Alex Ferguson left Manchester united till date, their have been several good managers that have managed Manchester united and things wasn't that rossy, because if it was that good, jose Mourinho, Luis van gaal, and ole wouldn't have been sacked, because they did pretty well, just that the managers is always to be blame if things aren't going as planned, so I think the board of Manchester united is to be blame, because they are not giving the manager a very good support in the transfer market, unlike others team, so I don't think ten hang is the sole cause of the problem of Manchester united.

Probabl bad news for manchester united fans.

Ten Hag insists that he will remain as United's manager for the coming season but i strongly believe united will have something that shall be done by the club asap. The speculation about whether he could still continue his career as United coach has been massive lately. Ten hag still fully believes if he will still being hired by united as a coach. Ten Hag tries to persuade the public that he will remain a united boss but i hope that this will not be real since ten has is the main causes of many problems appeared in united and I strongly disagree if he still becomes a head coach for the upcoming season. There are many great coaches who can manage the club better than him and i can even named some names who can be a coach for united.
It's completely unacceptable if ten hag stay with the club for another season since he gave nothing to the club. This is extremely bad news for all of the fans who have demanded that he leaves club. Ten Hag was a terrible coach, and that is the truth. It is extremely difficult to remove the negative image of him after so much bad news about him in the past.
Without a doubt, if people are becoming dissatisfied with him, he will continue to work as a coach for Manchester United.

I still think Osimhen has fallen short of expectations this season compared to last season, but there are very few strikers of his quality in world football. I can only compare Osimhen to players like Haaland and Mbappe. That's why his €130 million fee is very reasonable for him. That's why his name is constantly mentioned in the press with big teams like Manchester United Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea. I think he could be more successful at Paris Saint-Germain but I think every great footballer wants to play in the Premier League.

I doubt if the rumors are true because the player in question Rodrygo is happy with his team and he has also enjoyed some playing team under Ancelotti so it is very difficult to let him go considering his age, performance and his ability to score from different angles. I heard that Manchester City wants him but I don't think the deal will work out because Real Madrid will not want to bring Mbappe alonh sidw Haaland it's not going to wotk out but allowing Rodrygo to Manchester City means Manchester City will demand  for Real Madrid to make an extra payment for the deal to be completed because Haaland is a bigger player than Rodrygo and City would not want to loss in the deal. If Rodrygo wants to join another club I wouldn't want him to join City instead he can choose Arsenal who h is doing well in the league this season.

Victor Osimhen last season, performed incredibly well with the Napoli team that convincingly won the Italian scudetto but have failed to live up to that up to that performance of last season but that doesn't take away the fact that he's an incredible footballer. Paris Saint Germaine forward Kylian Mbappe will leave the club at the end of the current season which means that the club will definitely want to get a good replacement for him and considering the reports I've read recently, it seems that Victor Osimhen is the man that Paris Saint Germaine wants to get as Mbappe's replacement.
The Nigeria international I think posseses all the potentials needed of a player to succeed in any of the big European clubs so if Paris Saint Germaine meets his requirements, I think it'll be a good move for him to join the French champions in the up coming summer transfer window

Osimhen isn't even close to Mbappe's level. He is a great footballer, but he won't be able to fully replace Mbappe. Napoli severely dropped in performance and along with them Osimhen was having a hard season thus far. I wonder what his price tag will be after he underperformed in many games played. His price will probably not be the same as it was last season.

PSG, Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly very interested in Osimhen, due to their need for an experienced and mature striker. Financially, in my opinion, these three clubs will have no problems buying him from Napoli. PSG wants to sign Osimhem as a replacement for Mbappe, who plans to move to Real Madrid, but Chelsea and Arsenal also really need a sharp striker like Osimhen, it is clear that this is a competition between three elite clubs with strong financial strength. Meanwhile, all decisions of course depend on Osimhen himself, if the player requires appearing in the Champions League then Chelsea will be automatically eliminated.

The Premier League is the perfect destination to develop talent and increase prestige, and it is clear that if Osimhen arrives it will create new competition. Joining PSG is also not wrong, but there are no significant challenges because PSG is very dominant every season. With abundant financial power, a club like PSG will offer Napoli a crazy price to make their wish come true. Speculation about Osimhen's future is now getting hotter, because the season will soon end and the transfer window will open again.

Victor Osimhen last season, performed incredibly well with the Napoli team that convincingly won the Italian scudetto but have failed to live up to that up to that performance of last season but that doesn't take away the fact that he's an incredible footballer. Paris Saint Germaine forward Kylian Mbappe will leave the club at the end of the current season which means that the club will definitely want to get a good replacement for him and considering the reports I've read recently, it seems that Victor Osimhen is the man that Paris Saint Germaine wants to get as Mbappe's replacement.

Why would you think Madrid would let Rodrygo go? Although he is outshined by Bellingham and Vini, he is still a pretty good players in Real Madrid and if Madrid would let him go that means they will need to find a replacement for him. Kinda feels unreal that City is also interested with him but if they are going to swap Haaland and Rodrygo then that means business thouh

Ancelotti did this because Real Madrid lost their mainstay striker and got no player to replace the position. Joselu is far from Ancelotti's expectation to replace the role of Benzema's. Joselu often missed the chance to score, so Ancelotti can't expect much on him. As the solution, Ancelotti changes the formation of Real Madrid from 4-3-3 to 4-2-2-2 or 4-3-1-2. However, if Real Madrid can sign Mbappe, Ancelotti probably returns to the main formation 4-3-3. This main formation needs a strong striker (CF), it will be suitable for the position of Mbappe.

Why you are confident that Rodrygo will easily move to one of EPL teams?
It doesn't make sense if Real Madrid won't keep him, Rodrygo is one of the key players of Real Madrid. Even there is one of top EPL teams to offer him with high salary and wants to pat Real Madrid more than €100m, he is unlikely to move to EPL. He is already very comfortable to play with Real Madrid players.

Osimhen have already to talk to his agent that this summer probably he will leave Napoli and find new clubs and indeed previously Osimhen has been thinking that if he someday moved from Napoli then he might be want to play at Premier League and probably Manchester United or Chelsea would be his destination and indeed there are rumours about Premier League clubs who showing their interest to him and they are Chelsea and Arsenal even these clubs are willing to actived his release clause 130 millions

But apparently Osimhen is more likely to choose PSG rather than those clubs above this because previously he was playing with Lille so Osimhen have already know the atmosphere of Ligue 1 and he will be àdapt quickly if he joining with PSG and for PSG 130 millions is not a problem for them i am sure they are willing to buy according to Osimhen release clause because PSG looks very serious want to find the replacement of Mbappe and Osimhen might be suitable to replace Mbappe position on the team and some people have been predict if Mbappe leave PSG then they will do saga transfer and Osimhen probably is the right player for them

Osimeh can end to PSG, according to il Corriere dello Sport, they are willing to pay the release clause of 120m €.
In this winter their president said it will be sold, probably in Premier, but need to also consider the will of the player.

Many English team can also sign him, In the end it will go where they will pay the biggest salary to him I guess, since the price is fixed at 120m to Napoli.

Manchester United can be a valid alternative imho.

With the presence of the versatile Brahim Diaz and the potential addition of Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid gets tactical flexibility and formation variations that can make it difficult for opponents to predict. Brahim is ready to play in various positions, while Mbappe with his speed and skills will add a dimension to Madrid's attack. With these players, Madrid can adjust formations and tactics dynamically according to the needs of the match, and I think makes them more difficult to deal with and more adaptive on the pitch.

This Rodrigo case is mixed because the only way I see Madrid selling him is when they sign another right winger or probably a striker. They currently are still short of options upfront even if Mbappe comes. The likes of Joselu who are loan players will soon leave, so it will be a big hasty decision to sell Rodrigo. Even if Madrid is to release players to actually reduce the wages load I think the likes of ibrahim Diaz and Dani Ceballos will have to go first. They only time I see the young lad leaving is when Endrick arrives and another striker like the Rumored Oshimen or Halaand also comes.


I think it’s not a rule but you can’t buy them direct to your first team rather they will be registered under your academy and then you offer them promotion. Also I think the amount is the worry because you can’t buy a teenager that amount according to FFP rules and maybe that’s why they want to take the route of allowing him be with his boyhood club before the age which he can sign his first professional contract

If in the end this is proven and Madrid have Mbappe for next season I don't think it's a big problem because Rodrygo and Vini will still be able to get their positions comfortably.
Ancelotti can always do whatever he wants including in formation schemes so with the presence of Mbappe later Ancelotti can try 3 strikers where Mbappe or Vini can be placed at center forward and wing positions at the same time so this will not be too serious a problem and Jude can return to the same position in the attacking midfield as he always did at Dortmund and paired with Valverde and Tchouameni or Camavinga there.

For options there is still Brahim who is ready to be deployed anywhere so in this case I think Madrid can still bring Mbappe with the current conditions where there are several formation schemes that can actually be done and Madrid's scheme becomes difficult to guess with Mbappe in it.

I think Real Madrid is further away from winning the Champions League this season than ever. The simple reason is that they are up against Manchester City. It is the same for Manchester City though as they and Real Madrid are the two strongest team in that competition in my opinion. I am not sure if one of those teams has a small advantage, but I would tend to rate this as equal chances for both.

Haaland isn't really in best shape at the moment while most of Real Madrid's players are in top form. Manchester City's midfield isn't quite as strong as they had been last season.

Mbappe would boost Real Madrid's quality immensely. That would be a huge transfer and they would have another superstar at a pretty young age, Not quite as young as Bellingham, but still many years to go.

Yes I agree it is highly unlikely that Barcelona would have a chance if it comes down to competing bids between them and Chelsea. As you said, waiting two years for a transfer until the player can play is not something that Barcelona would be able to afford in their current financial situation.

Is this rule fixed that he would have to wait 2 years until he can play? What I don't get is that other players have played in La Liga before they turned 18, or not? 18 sounds so old and there are many players who get their first experience at the age of 17 and even 16.

Actually, you know Newcastle united was very active at a point this season but one of the things that led to their drop in form is as a result of some injury woes that besiege the team and since then they haven't really been at there best but regardless Newcastle united have a nice squad.

Basically as the league is nearing end that how teams will continue to improve in other to have a safe spot in the league table and Newcastle united being at the 8th position at this point is a great achievement for the team considering how backwards they were some time ago.

It will really be a difficult time for Eddie Howe if some of Newcastle's prominent players leaves by the end of the season because literally, we all have seen the huge impact they've made for the team this season so it isn't gonna be an easy one for the Magpies.

Aston Villa in the last 1year have been the highest point takers in the EPL. They've been exceptional at their games, winning almost always and ensuring that they stay at the top chart. No one saw them coming and they've been able to be consistent, keeping home win records this season and they've not failed to cause troubles for teams.

 They've got the capacity to remain on top but I really don't think City who's now below them would let them stay there, so if at all there'd be a change in the standings, then Villa won't go below the 6th position. They're so good to even try qualifying for the UEL next season. As competitive as the EPL has been this year, so far Villa have proven to be strong enough to fight back threats and create value and confidence in the team too.

 Newcastle in weeks have been doing good, they've been surprisingly excellent in a couple of games that they've been underrated in.  They're one team that didn't let the injury situation affect their performance, they were able to keep up with the games and ending them with victories. Even against PSG in both legs of the UCL group stage faceoff, they played in their highness and held PSG to ransom twice. It's just an amazing remark of their performance in football in the past weeks.
 
 Weeks back they lost to Everton which wasn't entirely their fault. They also faced City, a team who's also had huge impact on the league table, they did their best to put in extra effort. Any side had the chance to win even though City are doing exceedingly well, Newcastle were the host and maybe they'd be able to hold down City's pressure.
