I have always said that Erik Ten Hag is not a coach of a big team. If you give him a relatively small club to manage like Ajax, he can do many things with it. But when it comes to him managing big clubs and big players, he seems unsuccessful every time. He had conflicts with Ronaldo and many other players in his time at Manchester United time. Ronaldo never had problems with any manager before, although he is a little bit arrogant.

I don’t know what it is but even before Erik Ten Hag came, the newly signed in form players seemed to be losing their form. Andre Onana was a star player for his club and country. Now he can’t perform consistently for his club and is not even the first Goalkeeper for his country right now. I wonder if Erik Ten hag will stay the manager of Manchester United next season.

Have you followed Manchester United closely? That I doubt. Almost what's said are not completely correct. Even before he was appointed Manchester United manager, these players lost form and are bad.. even Ralf Ragnick made complains about it.
Andrea Onana having these issues because Manchester United best defending players are out Injured and not consistent. Despite that, Andrea Onana is the second best goalkeeper with the highest clean sheets in the Premier League Competition so far.

Erik Ten Hag would still be manager of Manchester United next season. Worry less, you just try to watch football better and not be baised.

Your opinion of Erik Ten Hag not being a coach for big clubs is trash. And for your information, Ajax is not a small club. That club has groomed one of the finest players in the history of football. Players he managed during his time with Ajax are all world class players. Erik Ten Hag disrespected Cristiano Ronaldo quite already I agree and sane goes with Cristiano Ronaldo who failed to report for training while carrying out his search for a new club in Europe.

Arsenal & Man Utd target Jeremie Frimpong has 'agreed move'
Jeremie Frimpong previously agreed to a move to Bayern Munich, according to a report.
The Bayer Leverkusen star is one of Europe's most sought-after players in his position after establishing himself as arguably the continent's most exciting right-back in recent seasons.

Source: https://www.footballtransfers.com/en/transfer-news/uk-premier-league/2024/03/jeremie-frimpong-transfer-news-arsenal-man-utd-bayern-munich-bayer-leverkusen

It is not impossible for Bayern Munich to acquire a few players from Leverkusen. We all know Bayern Munich uses this tactic. They tend to go for those players who can cause them problems in the Bundesliga and also who are playing well in the whole world. Recently I have heard that Alonso wants to stay at Leverkusen. So if he stays and she cannot keep the players that he has right now it is going to be hard for him to replicate the same results that he did. And if he cannot replicate that result, I think less clubs are going to be interested in him.

About the player, no one can blame him because he is obviously going to try to go to a better club. If bigger and better clubs show interest in him he is not going to stay.

Maybe Yamal is still considered quite important for Barcelona future development. But if you consider Barcelona finances, of course I think 200 million is enough to improve this club a little with some reliable and more mature players. The Yamal price could be Laporta alibi for his future which will make him the Next Messi. lol

Laporta exaggerated so that the media turned their attention to Yamal, who recently became the hero of Barcelona victory. Everyone must remember and learn that when Laporta needed finances in the past he also sacrificed very important players. Now, little by little, that will happen and Yamal must be prepared for all possibilities, because in football money is the lubricant for a club to survive.

On the one hand, management must think about how to ensure Barcelona existence as one of the rulers of La Liga is maintained amidst the financial crisis they are facing. If let go Yamal can reduce the burden and make things a little better, then there is no harm in doing so. Regarding the very high price, it sounds strange, club President Juan Laporta may want to protect the player from clubs that offer lower prices. Yamal is indeed one of the potential young players, but he has not achieved big things in his career, in terms of experience he still really needs more flying hours to be valued at 200 million.

On the other hand, I think Barcelona will indeed overhaul their squad in the next transfer window, because they will appoint a new coach as Xavi replacement. In fact, Barcelona management has several other players they can cash in on in the transfer window, such as Ansu Fati who is currently on loan at Brighton. Apart from that, I think all clubs will take the same way to get out of the financial crisis, one of which is releasing their important players.

Ancellotti has just renewed, I don't think Real Madrid will fire Ancelotti after having just renewed him unless the coach himself resigns perhaps after winning this Champions League, if he succeeds.
On the other hand, I don't see how Xabi can remain in Germany in the same team, when the auction for him starts this summer with many coaches looking for a new guide, including Liverpool and Bayern.

Absolutely agree on Ancelotti. He signed that agreement and is top of La Liga, so he wont go soon. As you said, Champions League is different; Man City will be challenging. Realistically, Madrid doesnt fire coaches like that. I'll give Ancelotti another season, possibly more. The man is protected till that contract ends unless Brazil calls with an offer he cant refuse. Madrid likes his stability.

Now, Xabi Alonso, things become interesting. Summer will be big for him. Heart wants Liverpool, but be smart; the best bid wins. Yes, if Real Madrid intervenes. Wow. This is football's biggest stage, so take it seriously. I think he returns to Liverpool if they make it worthwhile. It depends on whats available.

I think Ten Hag also wants that where he wants a positive result where Manchester United can win the trophy for the EPL it's just that with the situation they always receive the same at the beginning of the season (internal player problems even in these 2 seasons player and coach quarrels always occur) then it is very difficult to make them consistent at the beginning because of the lack of chemistry between players and coaches.
Although in the end towards the end of the season Ten Hag was always able to make a breakthrough where his position remained in the top 4 but indeed his achievements only got there no more.
In addition, some clubs now such as Liverpool, Manchester City and even Arsenal are still above them so this is also still very difficult to be used as momentum because in fact Manchester United are still below them in terms of performance.

I don't know what kind of chemistry can emerge between Ten Hag and the players if all we've seen is conflict and degradation of even good players. Even those with whom Ten Hag had an excellent relationship deteriorated, suppose in the case of Casemiro this can be attributed to age-related changes, in the case of Rashford it is difficult to come up with any excuses.
As for competition from other clubs, this is a general problem of the Premier League - there are too many strong clubs and even if you are good, you may end up a loser at the end of the season.

That is what happened until now because during Ten Hag's coaching at Manchester United from the beginning until now it seems that for clubs in the EPL only Manchester United has always had problems between coaches and players so that in this case the chemistry clearly has to be rebuilt because after all with the conditions that are happening now it is not suitable if every season there must be a dispute between players and coaches.
For Casemiro despite his current age he actually did decline when at Manchester United which makes me quite sure that communication is still a problem in this case especially since the difference is quite far when he is in the midfield of Madrid and the midfield of Manchester United at least for now the nickname tank pinned for Casemiro in midfield when he was at Madrid it decreased slightly.

For the problem of competition, it seems that it actually depends on the conditions of each club but on the other hand competition can be built if there is already good chemistry and good cooperation in a club to make its performance increase.

It was like a fairy tale when Joan Laporta said there was an offer from a club trying to offer Lamine Yamal a transfer fee of 200 million euros and he firmly rejected it. I mean, if what he said was true he should have released Lamine Yamal and when else could he produce that much for a player. Apart from that, the offer also seems unreasonable because Lamine Yamal, who is still 16 years old, has a team that costs him 200 million euros and his market value even exceeds that of Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappe. Cheesy

I can't understand why Barcelona has a club president as funny as Joan Laporta and he continues to create sensations amidst the club's decline due to the financial crisis. I think again, if the offer was real, 200 million should be able to fix existing financial problems and on the other hand he could buy better players for long-term investment. Isn't that quite reasonable? but once again this is just a ridiculous statement from the club president and I don't believe it.

Laporta didn't evne know how to treat his club even better. Rejecting a 200 million offer for Yamal, and yeah, that's a pure sensation from him. So many times he created this non sense thing. I remember when he was also making some sensational news about Barcelona's players. It seems like that Laporta has the ambition to use this to make Lamine's price go up.
This is an old trick the gold guy uses to make his favorite players famous. I think that if this news is real and im sure that it has already leaked it's kinda of different since laporta says nothing regarding who club that was sending an offer to get him.
Laporta sent a signal through this news if he wants other club who is interesting in yamal to pay more than 200 millions. Barcelona needs money to pay its debt and no doubt that laporta used any trick to ensure his club will able to raised a lot of money.

Beşiktaş is seriously interested in Orkun Kökçü. One of the best Turkish players in the market is Orkun. Whichever team gets him will do a great job. He was left out of Benfica's squad because he was played too defensively lately and wanted to play more offensively. Benfica paid him a serious transfer fee, but if they can't use him, they can sell him. If Beşiktaş buys Orkun Kökçü, it will both increase the quality of Turkish players and take an important position against the foreign player limit.

Absolute madness! I would have given him up for the offer straight away. This president is taking a big risk by rejecting the offer because no one knows how the player will develop. For that money you could have brought in two top players who have already proven their class, for example, as you mentioned, Haaland or Mbappe. Barca also has a lot of debt, which has led to restrictions on new signings in the past. That much money could solve a lot of problems.

Rashford according to what his mother said lost a close family friend and it's been difficult for him to process since this friend has been close buddies from way back. Asides that he has also been seen clubing and all that stuff, no matter what happens, player's should find ways to maintain balance, this has got nothing to do with Erik Ten Hag.

Do you even watch Casemiro? He has reduced strength lately, you watch him run to and fro and he is already tired panting and breathing heavily. I double doubt you do, because if you do you won criticize Erik Ten Hag. In the case of Andrea Onana, I see you all have nothing more to say, is he not the second goalkeeper right now innthr Premier League with the highest clean sheets? Lol.

The defense has seen issues since Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw got Injured, they're the major driving force for Erik Ten Hag because he builds from the back. You can go ahead saying this and that but you have to know that Erik Ten Hag is not the problem.
So what's with Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo and Diego Dalot? Aren't they working under Erik Ten Hag? I wonder how most of you watch football. Good God!

Level 80 naivety Cheesy

I can assume that you are an adult and you had to do something on your own. In this case, you know very well that finding reasons for failures and all sorts of excuses is as easy as shelling pears. Every team has injured players and in every team (purely statistically) some players have personal problems, but for some reason in some clubs the coach can cope with this (for example Real Madrid, City, Bayer Leverkusen which suffered from an epidemic of injuries this season) and in some clubs the head coach tells fairy tales about “development in the right direction” with terrible actual results.
About Onana, Anthony, etc. funny to say. For some reason, individual statistical successes do not cancel out a bunch of failures, do they?

Barcelona is very interested in bringing in joshua kimich from bayern muncen. but the targeted player says poor Barcelona will not be able to bring him to Barcelona. all players interested in Barcelona should say what joshua kimmich said.

The departure of Sergio Busquets is really huge lost for Barcelona because although this season Xavi has attempts to played some of players to replace Sergio Busquets position on the team but none of them who can able to performing well and maybe this also caused why Barcelona performance is unstable this season because there was no players who can able to playing as Sergio Busquets replacement and Joshua Kimmich name was appears recently because Xavi thought Kimmich maybe can be used to played as holding midfielder

But Kimmich himself very pesimistic Barcelona can able to bought him from Bayern Munich this because if Kimmich leave Bayern Munich then his price is quite expensive because those who want to bought him they at least have to spend 60 millions and Kimmich says with the current financial of Barcelona it is near to impossible to bought him and regarding Kimmich future obviously he will leave Bayern Munich because Kimmich is refuse the contract extension from Bayern Munich and apparently it's not hard for Kimmich to gets new club because besides Barcelona some of Premier league teama such as Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United are showing their interest to him

They have no rivals in Spanish La Liga. Barcelona will probably continue to have financial problems next season and will not be able to make good signings. Girona are a good team. But not good enough to compete with Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid are far from their old days. I think Real Madrid will win the Spanish La Liga again next season. The criterion of success for Real Madrid should be the Champions League, not the Spanish La Liga. Ancelotti is one of the best coaches in the world, but if they don't succeed in the Champions League, I can't say that Ancelotti is successful.

Barcelona's financial problems will not be solved as long as they never make some decisions to make it happen and problems like this will not be resolved only in the near future because from the beginning they seem ignorant of their conditions so that for next season and even for the next seasons their conditions will remain the same and will even seem worse.
At the moment their problems are not only with finances but next season they have to clean up with players and coaches because seeing from the current conditions some players seem to have to adapt to the new season due to injuries and Barcelona will also be short of players because their loan players will leave and of course the most fatal loss is Xavi who must leave even though this may still be bearable.

It's getting more and more complicated for Barcelona but there's no reason for them to back down as they just need to get on with what's coming their way as a consequence of the mistakes they made a few seasons ago.

Lol, this is funny, but frankly, if Xabi Alonso deserves a thrown of his own, I think Mbappe should have had one by now for a very long time! Cheesy

If Mbappe had his own thread here, we would probably soon be looking at at least 200 pages of posts...

But yes jokes aside, he is an interesting personality without a doubt, but there should be caution that we don't exaggerate. I mean it is not impossible that he goes to another club and gets fired within the six months. If he goes to Liverpool or Bayern and the teams don't perform, which is a possibility, the big adventure could be over faster than anyone thought it would.

Well, I really think that is not going to happen. I mean it is not impossible to happen. But with the performance that he has shown, that also with a quite weak opponent, I do not think he will have a big problem managing a big club. Him getting fired in 6 months can obviously happen. But that is highly unlikely in my opinion.

I tend to disagree with your "highly" unlikely because I think this has been seen before. But this is not so much about Alonso per se, but about coaching any of the big clubs. One of the most important requirements is that 99% of the time a coach isn't given the time to be successful. When Klopp overtook Liverpool, the team wasn't a winning team back at the time but rather hovering around in the midfield of the table. That is why Klopp was given the time to win something. But now he has raised the bar significantly for anyone to follow in his footsteps. In a situation where Liverpool would have a start with Alonso like 3 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses, I think the air would get thin quickly for him. Maybe Klopp would publicly ask for patience and that would help, but success is a must at least at a certain level. Bayern wouldn't be patient at all.

You know there is a Barcelona tradition about pricing their promising young players. They simply put a release clause of 1 billion euros on their contract and that's it! This is for the aim of showing no intention to sell those players to other teams. I haven't heard any player rejecting this release clause yet. Pedri, Gavi and Yamal all have it on their contracts.

Barcelona had better not lose this kind of valuable players of course. They are building their future around these players. Barcelona can fix their finances without selling this kind of players as well but they need time for that.

Real Madrid has historically been a dominant force in Spanish football. They certainly have a strong chance of winning La Liga again next season, considering financial problem at Barcelona continue to impact their ability to make significant signings. However Barca still possess a wealth of talent and a proud history of competing at the highest level. Counting them out entirely might be premature, especially given their capacity to develop and nurture young talent.

Girona may currently pose a threat to Real Madrid and Barcelona, but smaller clubs have been known to cause upsets against powerhouse clubs. Atletico Madrid, despite not being in title contender this season, still boast a strong squad and should not be underestimated. Real Madrid have their own success criteria with the Champions League being undoubtedly a prestigious trophy, Winning La Liga is their minimum standard. It requires consistency and excellence over the course of a grueling season, and securing domestic titles is a mark of a truly great team. Ancelotti's success may indeed be judged by Real Madrid's performance in the Champions League, but he already has a reputation as one of the best coaches in the world.

I have always said that Erik Ten Hag is not a coach of a big team. If you give him a relatively small club to manage like Ajax, he can do many things with it. But when it comes to him managing big clubs and big players, he seems unsuccessful every time. He had conflicts with Ronaldo and many other players in his time at Manchester United time. Ronaldo never had problems with any manager before, although he is a little bit arrogant.

I don’t know what it is but even before Erik Ten Hag came, the newly signed in form players seemed to be losing their form. Andre Onana was a star player for his club and country. Now he can’t perform consistently for his club and is not even the first Goalkeeper for his country right now. I wonder if Erik Ten hag will stay the manager of Manchester United next season.

I have heard a saying since I was younger. "Good things come to those who wait".
I think that is something Alonso is also thinking about. Because we all know he has not spoken out about his future.
He has also not approached any club. The clubs are all interested in him. But can't find there has been any official advancement to sign him.
So there is a very good chance that he actually stays and when Carlo Ancelotti actually leaves Real Madrid, he replaces him.
Actually, that is not a bad idea. The one thing he will have to make sure though is he still brings in a good performance with Leverkusen.

I am of the opinion that a special thread be dedicated to Xavi Alonso
As funny as this might sound, it is important to note and acknowledge that Xavi Alonso has actually done extraordinary well this season. If many expected this to happen I am not among those many. I am among the few that thought that the German Bundesliga season will end as usual. But Xavi Alonso took many people by surprise and even up to the European competitions, this guy is still doing great. I am not surprised that many clubs are interested in his services because he has proven himself to be a special and an extraordinary new talent in the coaching industry. In as much as both Liverpool and Bayern Munich and even the Real Madrid had once have him as their players, I would definitely want Xavi Alonso to come to England to compete with Guardiola and as such I will have Etche opportunity to watch him every weekend.

Well, actually I am not going to be mad if a special thread is dedicated to Xavi Alonso Cheesy

But jokes aside he did have a great impact and it is almost like a youngster coming forward through the ranks. It's like when we first saw Lionel Messi or Neymar. Just convert it to the coaching world. That's the level of impact he has had. And you have to realize that this is a moment where good coaches are hard to come by. So it is obvious people are going to talk about him a lot.

It will be a good test of his skill if he actually goes to the English Premier League. And I think he will also do well in the English Premier League. Unless he chooses to be the coach of Manchester United over Chelsea. Because that would be a suicide of his career.

Lol, this is funny, but frankly, if Xabi Alonso deserves a thrown of his own, I think Mbappe should have had one by now for a very long time! Cheesy

If Mbappe had his own thread here, we would probably soon be looking at at least 200 pages of posts...

But yes jokes aside, he is an interesting personality without a doubt, but there should be caution that we don't exaggerate. I mean it is not impossible that he goes to another club and gets fired within the six months. If he goes to Liverpool or Bayern and the teams don't perform, which is a possibility, the big adventure could be over faster than anyone thought it would.

Well, I really think that is not going to happen. I mean it is not impossible to happen. But with the performance that he has shown, that also with a quite weak opponent, I do not think he will have a big problem managing a big club. Him getting fired in 6 months can obviously happen. But that is highly unlikely in my opinion.

Ancellotti has just renewed, I don't think Real Madrid will fire Ancelotti after having just renewed him unless the coach himself resigns perhaps after winning this Champions League, if he succeeds.
On the other hand, I don't see how Xabi can remain in Germany in the same team, when the auction for him starts this summer with many coaches looking for a new guide, including Liverpool and Bayern.

I don't think Real Madrid would sack Ancelotti no matter he wins the Champions League title this season or not. In addition to his signing a contract extension newly he is quite close to winning the La Liga title. When it comes to the Champions League I feel like this will be the end for them against Manchester City. At least it would be like this if they play the same as the previous phase. Sad

I expect Ancelotti to stay for another season but it is difficult to say if he would stay until the end of his contract which is 2026. If he doesn't have a very bad season or decide to accept a national team offer then I assume he would stay until then too.

They have no rivals in Spanish La Liga. Barcelona will probably continue to have financial problems next season and will not be able to make good signings. Girona are a good team. But not good enough to compete with Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid are far from their old days. I think Real Madrid will win the Spanish La Liga again next season. The criterion of success for Real Madrid should be the Champions League, not the Spanish La Liga. Ancelotti is one of the best coaches in the world, but if they don't succeed in the Champions League, I can't say that Ancelotti is successful.
