Fortunately, Ruud has left the club since the arrival of Ruben Amorim. No space was given him in the backroom staff because obviously, the 39year old Amorim who won his last match 4-2 against Braga has his own preference of staff, right from his assistance to goal keeper trainer.
The team has witnessed massive boost in terms of performance in their defense for a league title this season, and majorly, we have seen how some players like Rashford has been out of form, yet kept his spot under Ten Hag.

It seems Amorim is coming with all of his staffs that he’s working with at Sporting Lisbon and will make a lot of the couching staffs present now that worked with Ten Hag leaving their jobs. This is a very important moment for Manchester United and they might not compromise it and would allow him to go and as such because they need the league title and it’s more important for them to win it after a poor start to the season. I see Amorim making a lot of changes in the squad and starting eleven of the club. He’s going to be starting with three defense and has also shown interest in Nkunku at Chelsea which I feel he may bring in to join the team soon.

After such a start they need to at least stabilise and get to a consistent level, it's very early to talk about trophies, we'll be lucky if we can seriously think about some trophies next season. The FA Cup I don't think they need to count, they can win it with Ten Hag as practice shows, it will be hard to judge whether the change of coach really helped or not

Madrid easily for extending Vinicius Jr contract although still longer time expiry but depend with Madrid performed recently have bad trend after losing in domestic league and UEFA Champion League match. This season competition still longer time and Vinicius Jr have opportunity proof his capacity for winning Ballon D'Or for next year.
You are absolutely right in what you say, honestly what you say about him I find it difficult not to renew him, he scored great goals against Osasuna and that was a demonstration that he loves the club and here Forentino Perez has to see it, and I am sure that he will renew his contract.

~~

Yep, obviously Vinicius Junior will extend his contract and I was also seeing it when Vinicius Junior completes his stunning hat trick against Osasuna in which he shows to the fan that he loves Real Madrid. So I think he wants to stay in at real Madrid. Vinicius Junior is one the best strikers in the world his speed, control, and agility is out of this world. To be honest he needs to stay in real Madrid because real Madrid is the club where he could show up his talent and also can win individual trophies as well as club trophies. 
 
So it's meant to say that it will be good for Vinicius Junior to extend his contact because currently the club needs him and if he is loyal to the club so indeed he will extend his contact and stay strong with real Madrid.

Well, now that Fabrizio Romano said that Claudio Ranieri is close to reaching an agreement with As Roma, I believe it won't take long for the Roma management and Claudio Ranieri to sign a contract. But I honestly think that Roma's management may be making the same mistake again. I say this because although Claudio Ranieri has managed to win many titles, he is very old and has not managed to win Serie A recently with any team. So by taking Roma in the peak state they are in, I believe that at most he could only improve Roma's position next season and at most he would be able to win the Coppa Italia, but he wouldn't be able to win Serie A.

It's a gamble again if you really want to try a coach who is over 70 years old to return to coaching a big club.

Not that I want to discriminate against age at the moment because it all comes back to performance on the pitch but in the end does Roma have to be like this where they seem to be struggling to find the right coach to make the squad even better.
The previous decision to end the partnership with De Rosi and find a new coach proved to be a mistake because it only made their condition uncontrollable; because of the rapid adaptation with great pressure.

It is possible in this case Ranieri still has the experience to run some schemes in conditions that are actually now still quite complicated for them but on the other hand this is also a gamble again because in the end if this decision is made and again get the same results this will further aggravate Roma.

I believe Roma will not choose Ten Hag. If that happens, then it is questionable what target Roma really wants to achieve by bringing in Ten Hag. I am sure Roma can get a better coach and can certainly make Roma better. but clearly it is not Ten Hag.
Ten Hag may have to go to the Eredivisie to coach a struggling club and make achievements first before finally being glanced at by a big European club. Ten Hag's name should have started to be sidelined after his dismissal from United.
That's just fake news that will never happen, Roma also don't want Ten Hag and I don't think he fits there either.
Roma have now found a replacement for Ivan Juric you can see the latest news from Fabrizio Romano
His current replacement is Claudio Ranieri, he has been officially appointed by the AS Roma board of directors to handle the club,
hopefully with his experience Roma can rise and improve their current position in the Serie A standings.

Claudio Ranieri is a good coach and i recalled how he was able to lead Leicester city to winning the title in 2015/2016 season. He also led Cagliari to promotion to the Serie A in 2023 so if he is confirmed as Roma's head coach, we should be expecting some positive changes in the team. The season hasn't gone far yet and besides Roma can still come out stronger in the Europa league since they may not be able to become title contenders due the number of points that the lead leaders at topping the table with. Saying that Claudio Ranieri can only get to win the Coppa Italia may not be true because if we are to go by his records as a coach i think he is one of the successful Managers. Since this information is being giving by Fabrizio Romano, i believe it is most likely that Claudio Ranieri and Roma would reach an agreement and possibly sign a contract with the club.

Why am I so sad when I heard he will leave Man United after giving quite good results in his 4 matches  Cry so far he has not experienced defeat and even scored 11 goals and only conceded 3 goals from his debut with Man United, it is very unfortunate that Amorim did not appoint him as an assistant even though he actually knows the depth of the red devils well as a former player and also as an assistant. However, even though he is Amorim's assistant, Ruud actually can't do much, the decision is entirely in the hands of Amorim's head coach in building the team.

After Ruud has taken over Manchester United have really started to get good results. This also shows that Manchester United was late to sack Erik ten Hag. I would also like to see Ruud's staying at Manchester United until the end of the season a lot. However Manchester United board don't want to lose time and one should understand this too. Every manager would like to work with their own team. I guess Amorim didn't want to see Ruud in his team because of this or Ruud didn't want to have a place in Amorim's team.

I wish Ruud success as he continues his coaching journey but then I was expecting expecting the Manchester United management to have encouraged the current coach Ruben Amorim to have given him the opportunity to work with him since the few matches that was handled by Ruud turned out to be one of the best performance of the team this season so far and since the strategy of Ruud is working for the team already Amorim working with him would see the team in a better shape.

Ruben Amorim bringing his own technical crew to the Manchester United team sounds great since he has used the same strategy to achieve a good performance in his former team, his commitment is to better the performance of the team and see how he will restore the good performance of the players since most of them is finding it difficult to pick up form again.

something funny about Claudio Ranieri’s arrival:


Mats Hummels: “Me in the last 72h”.

He’s been waiting for AS Roma to appoint new head coach as he was never playing under Ivan Jurić…

…and now it’s all done with Claudio Ranieri as new manager, as Hummels’ ready to fight for his place again.

It is obvious that with such great opportunities at Manchester United, ten Hag made a lot of mistakes and was unable to take advantage of the opportunity that he had. Amorim will most likely make a good rotation in the team, as Maresca did at Chelsea, I think that without this, nothing will change. Maybe van Nistelrooy's temporary successes show that Manchester United has very good potential, but for great achievements the team requires big changes, I think we will soon see them with Amorim.

Erik Ten Hag tried his best which was not credited efficient for the club's growth, he has alot of errors recorded during his era as manager for the Red Devils. He needed time to put things right for the club that doesn't mean he didn't lift titles with the team, he did but coming to imperative tournament, he vanished into the thin air and that's actually not the competency ratio the team's board spotted when they appointed him as headcoach. Manchester United is an elite club that needs to be efficiently fixed following the current situation of the club.

The boss is around and Manchester United fans are hopeful for a competitive run. Ruben Amorim has good visions for the club but I would rather advised the team's supporters to pipe low regarding the high expectation they're expecting from the new coach. Amorim is new to the system and you don't just expects a total turn around for Manchester United, everything takes time, although the temporary assistant coach who was obligated to take over responsibility of the managerial role since Erik Ten Hag was relieved off his duties, Ruud van Nistelrooy have departed Old Trafford because Ruben Amorim doesn't welcome the idea of working with him, he brought his own team and would work with them.

He already talked about how he wants to not bring him this January, that part is at least guaranteed. I am not saying that it would be impossible for the summer, they may do it during the summer, but not this January. Plus, they have enough players as it is, the problem isn't that they do not have the players to win, they have players and a roster to win this without trouble, the problem is that they are not really doing anything great at the moment.

Players who can play better, end up playing worse than what they are playing right now is the problem and I believe they are going to face even more toughness in the future if they keep this up. I believe fixing that would fix many of their issues and that is the most important part. If they can do this, then they can do very well, and shouldn't be really focusing on getting new ones. Just make the players play with their %100 and they should be getting a great result without trouble in the end.

I also see it like that, in fact this will be a new challenge for Ruben Amorim to focus on the available players. In fact, Man United's players are quite good, but they need more effort and of course work hard so that they can be consistent, let alone stable. United has brought in many players before, whether it's a striker, midfielder and defender. But unfortunately, their performance is often more chaotic. I don't know what the main problem is with The Red Devil, but as we see they actually have good players. What we often see is that they create many opportunities but have difficulty converting them into goals, or they are ahead first but unfortunately have difficulty maintaining it until the final whistle is blown. Now Amorim is the head coach at Old Trafford, it is hoped that they will be able to do much better than the previous coach. Whoever it is, of course the Red Devil supporters want their favorite team to be a much more competitive team. Moreover, they can compete tightly in the top four of the Premier League. I won't say much about Manchester United under Amorim's direction, let's just see his work. Moreover, give him time to prove his capacity. or, he will also have difficulty achieving maximum results.

You sound like a true Roma fan and i feel your pain if the club has to make such a bad decision in choosing Ten Hag. Most complains from managers who fail to win league trophy or take the club far is that the board of directors don't give them enough funds to manage the team. With what you pointed out, Roma has less to offer to Ten Hag compared to what he received from Manchester United. And we all know that Manchester United is one of the richest club in England. Yet Ten Hag fail to accomplish anything good.

The Roma board of directors should think twice in these situation. Knowing full well that they have suffered in the hands of two coaches who promised them success and yet failed. Now they want to bank on Ten Hag.

Zirkzee has just arrived from Bologna but he will leave again from Manchester United?

Come on guys, I think it's just hoax news that may not have a clear news source, we know if Manchester United sign him from Bologna for a high price, so sell his just be bad business in my opinion, the arrival of Amorim does make we  a lot of questions about the possible changes that exist, but I don't think they will sell Zirkzee at the moment,  Although Zirkzee has not been able to show good performance and consistency at Manchester United, they should give him longer time to prove himself quality, but indeed we cannot deny that maybe Amorim will make a breakthrough in the January transfer market to get the scheme and squad he wants later.


I doubt Manchester United will miss him if he leaves the club. Zirkzee has not been able to replicate the form he showed at Bologna last season, which was a big reason why Manchester United signed him. He’s been inconsistent all season, it could be Erik Ten Hag was the cause of his underperformance. With the potential arrival of Ruben Amorim, I believe United may actively explore the January transfer market. Amorim will likely let go of several underperforming players and bring in players who align with his vision for the club.
The new Boss of Manchester United hasn't arrived yet so we can't tell if he will be interested in zirkee or any of the players that are currently available in the squad but it is certain that he won't be sending the entire players away because he would have to work with what's available at the moment until the transfer windows open in january when he would start shopping for the kind of players that he deems fit to be in his team, I think he would have to do away with a lot of them especially those who may not be able to fit into his style of play, but is left for the new coach to decide who stays and who doesn't.

Manchester United Ex manager Erik Ten Hag is said to be under consideration to become the new manager of AS Roma.

How true is this? I am aware that Roma just recently sacked the second coach of this season and they are looking for their third coach. They are looking for a replacement for Ivan Juric but in the meantime Roberto Mancini is yet to take over. Under consideration the club is looking out for Erik Ten Hag if he would be the new coach to bring revival.

The thing is after all he did in Manchester United, do we think he is qualified to be Roma new manager? Whats your take on this?

No way!!! I don't wanna see Ten Hag joins in Roma. I know, he was great at Ajax, then terrible at Manchester United. The problem is that he was good at United after he spent 700 million. Roma will give him far less than it.

Even with 700 millions, he never won major trophy at Manchester United.

We have a better option than Ten Hag atm. That's Montella, and i'd prefer for them to go for Montella. He's far experienced to handle Roma, i think he won't be another flop to be signed as a new coach. Also, all of roma fans wanted Montella's signature asap.

Yep it doesn't make any sense.

Honestly I agree Zirkzee is a bad player, he was in Bologna for 2 years, first year he only scored 2 goals and the second year he scored 11 goals, making him to be Bologna's top scorer in the last year.

That's, he only perform for a year and Manchester United willing to pay high for him. This is why it's not surprising to see Zirkzee performance is terrible because his prime only one season.
I understand why you are worried about Zirkzee's consistency. Even though he was Bologna top scorer with 11 goals in his second year his overall performance record raises some questions. Fact is that he only scored 2 goals in his first year and mainly relied on that one successful season makes people doubt if he can keep performing well. It is surprising that Manchester United is willing to spend a lot of money on him considering his inconsistent record. However it is possible that Manchester United believes Zirkzee has potential to grow and repeat his successful season. Ultimately time will tell if Zirkzee can consistently prove himself.

You know, it feels like your choice of words is counter factual even though you don't mean it. Yes, Zirkzee was the "top scorer" with 11 goals for Bologna, but that doesn't actually make him a "top" scorer. 11 goals is average. He played almost every single game that season and yes 11 goals is ok, but is that the calibre of striker that fits Manchester United's requirements to prevail in the Premier League? Seriously no, and he had some lucky moments at Bayern, which is the reason why he was eyed by Bologna. Bayern let him go without hesitation because they knew that he is not Harry Kane... Bad player and it could be easily predicted that he wouldn't turn out to be a goal scoring machine for Manchester United.
I will not doubt your conclusion, because a player that scored a total of 11 goal in one season is not going to do better in Manchester united. Look at since his arrival, he misses good opportunities. Ten Hag is a mess because he chose these players himself, no wonder he is not improving in his coaching skills and wanted to turn Manchester United to a mediocre club.

Manchester united needs world top strikers to in their attacking line so that in every two opportunities, one would be converted to a gaol.

I don't actually think that this particular deal is not  going to come to reality because the hierarchy of Newcastle united will definitely think that hose Mourinho has past his prime, though I may be wrong, but if  am truly right, I don't think they will ever consider hiring him as the manager of Newcastle united, they might want someone more younger and in his prime.

But if in any case that Newcastle hired him as their manager, this will be a major plus to the Newcastle side because he is a proven winner and am very sure that jose Mourinho wouldn't stay at Newcastle for two whole season without winning anything with the kind of resources they now have, it can never happen.
Situation at the Newcastle United is not clear because change of ownership have good impact, and they were in top four as well at the end of 2023, but we have too many on and off the field problems which bring them down at the end of 2024 even many feeling Eddie Howe is doing good job, but he is having not experience at the top level which is hurting them badly in this season we have them at the 8th spot which is good, and they can jump above as well, but they needed more motivated and strong for having good results.

Even José Mourinho is good, but now he could be 62 in few months which mean time is over and Newcastle United needed good and creative coach which bring good changes and better results currently we have nothing sure about this, but things can take changes, and we can expect new changes but mostly will happen at the end of this season.

He has not been able to do that because the pace of the premier league competition and that of seria A are not even the same when you get to compare them. I won't put blames on Erik ten Hag for his underperformance, well maybe you're correct because a coach should be able to improve the players he signed and know how to utilize their full potentials. I'm not expecting nothing from the new manager, I'd rather let them shock me. Ruben Amorim is a great manager but he's got to  show working.

We recently saw news about Real Madrid hiring another palyers because their defender Militão was injured hard and he won't be able to help his team for nine months which is a long time and Real Madrid should think about hiring another palyers. Sergio Ramos the old legendary player of Real Madrid was linked to this team but it seems he won't join Real Madrid anymore because they prefer to let Sergio Ramos be in the memory like he was in the old days as a legend.
Laporte is the plan A for Real Madrid and Lukeba is the plan B the interesting thing about Real Madrid is they are even interested in hiring Jonathan Tah the player and captain of Leverkusen.
The contract with Jonathan Tah will end in 2025 and Real Madrid can have the chance to hire Jonathan Tah for free.


No one had any complaints about Real Madrid's previous defense position, but the current defense line may not be satisfying the fans for some reason and the current defense may be reminding many of them of Sergio Ramos. I will not say that the current Real Madrid defenders are incompetent but I will say that they are experienced enough but they are injured now. Since these defenders are regularly getting injured and sidelined for long periods of time, defenders are definitely needed at Real Madrid right now. Real Madrid may be targeting a defender who is relatively young and has great pace. We will have to wait until the transfer market to see who will be Real Madrid's next central back.
