A lot of the problems are going to be solved for Chelsea if they can just sell Lukaku. The player that they brought in for almost 100,000,000 and expected him to perform like one of the best strikers in the world, has become a real problem for them. Chelsea has been able to loan him out to another club but that is not going to solve their problem. They have multiple players that they need to get rid of but if they want to sell them, Chelsea will have to take a huge loss and sell them for very low amount of money compared to the amount that they have used up to bring them in. Is Chelsea actually willing to make that decision? By the way, I don’t see any other option for them as well. Because the longer they wait, the further the value of those players goes down. so it is a loose loose situation for Chelsea, and it doesn’t matter what decision they actually take

Do you know what? When he was signed up newly into Chelsea, he was the highest goalscorer for Inter Milan and the fans had high expectations.
I see those who come into a club with too much expectations ends up being a flop and also a dead player. Asides Romelu Lukaku, I have also come across other player who ended up in the opposite direction. Memphis Depay was like this also for Manchester United years ago.

I don't see them making mistakes with signing and selling players. If I'm correct, Chelsea made good profits last season as they was able to make good profits from the sale of players like Kai Havertz and also Mason Mount who moved to Manchester United last season. I expect them to get a new striker but nkt the one with high fee and overpriced valuations.

Olise finally moved to Bayern Munich instead of Manchester United and Chelsea as we all expected.

Manchester United has appointed a new coach. It cannot be said for sure whether this team will do well in the next season. Manchester United's overall condition is now weak. Major changes must be made within the party. And Manchester United need experienced players.
Who is Man United's new coach?  He was not visited by Man United staff while on vacation to give news that he was trusted to return to coaching.
But there is a new twist that may have a bad effect on Ten Hag. Ten Hag said about Jim Ratcliffe who is considered panicked about the situation at Man United. Ten Hag considers Jim Ratcliffe a new club owner who does not understand well the condition of a football team.
I actually heard that for next season Manchester United will actually continue to entrust the head coach to Ten Hag but with a note where for the problem of buying players he does not have full rights for that because later there will be a special team to make a list of players who should be bought or which players should be discarded from Manchester United.

This is actually quite complicated because after all Ten Hag is clearly the one who should be in control but on the other hand if he is allowed to look for players then indeed the situation will not be much different from these few seasons where the players will be considered lacking in terms of suitability which actually makes money wasted.

But I don't know if this has been authorized or not, it's just that if there is a change of plan by replacing the new coach then of course I think it will be very good because I am one of the people who hope Ten Hag leaves Manchester United for the next season.

I have heard several rumors that Manchester United management have offered ZIdan to become coach. Also, the last thing I heard was that Thomas Tuchel is going to be the next coach of Manchester United. But till now I have not seen any news regarding this in any credible mass media.
We already understand that Manchester United bosses are not happy with Ten Hag. In the last two seasons we see an improvement in Manchester United's performance. Ten hag also failed to strengthen this group. So Manchester United management is looking for a suitable alternative to Ten Hag. They are looking for more experienced coaches.

Ten Hag may remain Manchester United's coach next season. But I don't expect much from ten hag next season either. I think Manchester United should change their coach this season.

As far as I can see, Chelsea is prioritizing a striker transfer lately. Openda looks like a fresh target. What happened with Osimhen? Did they just give up on him? Or maybe they are looking for other alternatives first because of his probable high costs.  Sad
I want to know why they aren't interested in a player like Guirassy.  Huh  A wonderful season with 28 goals in the Bundesliga and he is like free - €17.5m release caluse. Just go for him already!
I have heard Dortmund is preparing to make an offer. I don't think he is just a one season wonder. Since he signed for Stuttgart he has been improving more and more.
Deal for Benjamin Sesko did not go fine, also they cannot rely on Nicholas Jackson as the lobe striker next season. Openda I know did well during the earliest stages of the Champions League Competition group stage, but after that, I had no idea, he should be fourth or fifth highest goal scorer in Bundesliga League Competition last season. Good season he had I must say.  I don't know if he'll fit in well though.

The valuation for Victor Oshime is not too much for the club Chelsea, bit they'll have to sell off players so they wouldn't be affected by financial fair play rules next season. Players like Gallagher, Madueke, Trevor Chalobah and also Romelu Lukaku all have been shortlisted to be sold out. Ian Mastseen most likely would be involved in a move to Aston Villa the way it seems right now.

A lot of the problems are going to be solved for Chelsea if they can just sell Lukaku.

We all expected that with the help of Ten Hag, we will see Manchester United perform well this season. But this season also Ten Hag was unsuccessful as usual. And throughout the season we have seen erratic performances from Manchester United. Manchester United had a lot of talented players in their squad. However, we do not see any improvement in Manchester United's performance. Our expectations were higher from a team as renowned as Manchester United.

Manchester United has appointed a new coach. It cannot be said for sure whether this team will do well in the next season. Manchester United's overall condition is now weak. Major changes must be made within the party. And Manchester United need experienced players.
I know that Erik ten Hag will stay with Manchester United for one more season according to transfer market information. You say Manchester United have changed their manager this season but I haven't heard any news about it till now. Manchester United were not satisfied with the performance of the current manager and wanted to remove him from the job but due to the lack of a good quality manager, they have relied on this manager for one more season. If there is a new strategy to be implemented, then Erik ten Hag will definitely want to apply that strategy to succeed. If Erik ten Hag can do well next season, Manchester United may extend his contract.
Manchester United has evaluated all of ten hag performance in the last two seasons and was interrupted by the evaluation, reportedly Manchester United are looking for another coach to replace Ten Hag as Manchester United coach next season, even the owner of Manchester United at that time had met with Tuchel for the possibility of making Tuchel as the coach of Manchester United next season, but the deal failed to materialize because Tuchel preferred To rest at this time and finally Manchester United again entrusts Ten Hag as their coach next season and from several existing sports media say that it is very likely that Ten Hag will get a contract extension at Manchester United.

The management decision to keep ten hag certainly made the majority of Manchester United supporters angry, because they thought that so far Manchester United under ten Hag's coaching has not developed at all, but next season of course there may be an improvement in Manchester United performance because currently Manchester United continues to start looking for new players needed by ten Hag, in addition, maybe Ten Hag will also soon change his game strategy for the better, considering that there have been two seasons without any development for Manchester United with Ten Hag game scheme so far.

Whoever the coach is, Manchester United must have balance in the team. They must be strong in defense, creative in midfield and productive in attack. So far it is still far from perfect, but efforts to improve the situation continue to be made.
Agree with you, overall I can't give a plus to Manchester United's performance this season even though they managed to win the FA Cup trophy. Manchester United needs to improve in every line, their defense is very fragile, the defenders often leave gaps and make blunders which means they often concede.
The level of creativity of the players in the midfield is also not very prominent, they are not able to maintain the rhythm of the game well and the ball supply to the front line is also very minimal, as a result the front line is also unable to increase goal productivity. The only solution to change the direction of Manchester United's game must be based on the coach's tactics and strategy. If the coach is unable to implement strategies and tactics that can improve the quality of the players' play, Manchester United will have difficulty competing with other teams due to no changes in their game scheme.

It's actually quite sad to read statements related to the word "consistent", which usually refers to consistently increasing competence. However, at Man United, on the contrary, they underperformed consistently. But this is what happened and the fact is that for several seasons, Man United's performance has been quite bad. And this season too, it's been really bad, consistently missing opportunities. So, it's natural that many of us have doubts about it, even next season.
Last season Manchester United definitely performed much better than the last season which is why Manchester United got the opportunity to play in the Champions League this season but with the performance they have shown in the English Premier League in the last season, their dream of playing in the Champions League this season is over.
Actually, it's quite complicated to say Man UNnited's condition this time. Not just this season, but previous seasons. Where Man United performance is getting worse day by day. Not only that, this time, they were only able to finish in the top 8. They almost didn't qualify for several trophies. But luckily, they managed to win the FA Cup playing against Man City. And with this victory, Man United will finally be able to get the opportunity to compete in the UAE Europa League later.

I wonder one day if we will see Tottenham in the title race as well. They are still the same. A good start to the season and maintaining a decent for some time first. But later on, they start to mess up and only try to stay in top 4 at least. They couldn't even finish there this season though.  Sad

It was Ange Postecoglou's first season of course so I don't want to go harsh on him. He needs to be given time to see if he can really make a good impact. They need to hear him out for the next season squad.

Obviously, nothing has changed since Kane left. Because Kane was individually great but the team effort was inconsistent. They are still the same. What do you think they need to do?
Since Kane left they have become unproductive again and even tend to be worse, they lost themselves and continued to have a nightmare at the end of last season, I don't have a clear vision but I'm pretty sure that maybe Tottenham won't be able to compete again in the top five of the English premier league standings, when their consistency in the game and also very often make mistakes in doing teamwork that makes them easy to beat, they weaken slowly and maybe many people will forget it in the future.

Ange Postecoglou needs to review the mistakes they often make first and cover it up slowly so that the team's performance improves again, without realizing that Tottenham often missed in making strategies before, maybe Tottenham needs more players who can consistently utilize their abilities very well, flexible players will have more strategic opportunities in the team, double jobs and others can be an option for some players to launch their strategies.

Good, I've said the main problem in Manchester United is the defenders, hopefully this could able to strengthen their defense. Not easy to finish on the top 4 positions, but they have Antony, so I believe they can. Antony is the best striker in the world, he has 36 goals away in order to break Haaland's record.
Antony of Manchester United???

Well everyone is subjected to their own opinions but I don’t rate Antony as a good finisher because he is yet to prove himself worthy of the money they used to signed him from Ajax; although he had been doing credibly well towards the end of last season but yet his performance is not satisfied to be called best winger in the Premier League among his co-wingers in other teams.

This is my speculation for the upcoming season:
1. Manchester City
2. Arsenal
3. Aston Villa
4. Manchester United Cool
Hy did you still put Manchester City in the first place?
Do you still think they can win the Premier League title next season?
I think most of the Premier League big teams will try to make sure stop City from winning the title for the fifth time especially Arsenal that has been making effort since last two seasons.

If Manchester United's squad has to be overhauled, then they not only have to improve their defense, but their attack line must also be reviewed. I don't see Manchester United having good players in attack, even Rasmus Hojlund, who is said to be good, can't really make an impact on the team. Manchester United must have a focus on improving various sectors, but they only need to do it gradually.

Whoever the coach is, Manchester United must have balance in the team. They must be strong in defense, creative in midfield and productive in attack. So far it is still far from perfect, but efforts to improve the situation continue to be made.

How do you figure the defence is Man Utd's main problem?
Just by looking at the table alone, it's blatantly clear that what's lacking the most is their offence.
They lost 58 goals last season, which obviously is much worse than any of the top 3 clubs, but is better than 4 clubs placed above them.
Now, let's take a look at the number of goals scored: 57. If you sort the table by that metric, they would be on 9th/10th place ex aequo with Crystal Palace. They've scored only one more than 16th Brentford and are far worse than any of the club from the top 7. For example, Newcastle (who ended up directly above United) has 85 goals scored.

Your jokes bout Anthony are boring ASF. You do them over and over and it no longer makes sense. Maybe you should focus on improving your skills.
Let Anthony be, I'm not sure you know how to play football, why disrespect him? He will do better and if he doesn't, then Manchester United is not the club for him. I did see him with Ajax and I knywjat he can do.

Bout the speculations, I'd say;

Arsenal.
Manchester City.
Manchester United and lastly, Chelsea. Aston Villa would've it difficult to qualify due to too many games. ( Champions League and Premier League Competition )

Though you seem dubious about united for the next season, manchester united have to finish at least in the top 4. I have heard that united is now focusing on Barcelona's Kounde, and I think Brantwaite will be teamed with him. Building from scratch takes time, and so I hope united fans will be quite patient. 

Ten hag is fully concentrated on defenders, and then United will give the midfielders line top priority; Ultimately, United will win as many trophies as possible and regularly participate in the UCL, once they club rebuilds process is fully finished.

I would not expect Villa to be that high, sure they did alright this season but just because they had a decent one season, doesn't mean that they are going to be decent every season. We should expect them to have something a little bit worse, and there can't be anything that will be all that complicated. We need to just realize that Villa is a team that will sell a few players and just become mediocre again.

On the other hand, I would like to say that it would be quite important to realize that we are going to see Liverpool not become that bad suddenly just because Klopp leaves, doesn't mean they will win the title or anything, but I think top four is still a possibility for them. Also United can't recover in a single summer period, they need some time.

Next season competition will be a testament for ten hag to bring Manchester United even better, this season Manchester United performance is not as expected by management and fans, so indeed currently ten hag continues to get pressure from Manchester United fans, but indeed Manchester United management seems to believe in ten Hag so much that indeed he got a contract extension after the evaluation was carried out,  I personally doubt that defense is Manchester United's problem at the moment, because I see that Manchester United actually has a pretty good and reliable defensive player.

The main problem with ten hag I think is his strategy and style of play which is indeed difficult for Manchester United players to follow at the moment, so it is indeed better for him to change his game pattern to be even better next season, the prediction of the standings you mentioned still seems reasonable but sorry if you don't agree if Manchester United can enter the top 4,  Because I think there are other clubs that may have more potential to enter the top 4 such as Chelsea and Liverpool.

A good defense will bring out the best of Andrea Onana. I have seen this with Ajax and also same with Inter Milan. I won't be surprised too when I start seeing him becoming the goalkeeper with the highest clean sheets and also winning the golden glove. It's a good thing to solve the defense because that's what will guarantee a side that'll win trophies. With Rapheal Varane gone and Victor Lindelof joining Jose Mourinho soon, I think Manchester United needs two solid defenders.

A deal to get Branthewaite completely from Everton would be lovely. He is a tall defender with pace and has a good IQ. With time, he'll work on his ball passing skills.

Yeah normally Andre Onana isn't making this many mistakes in a season. Especially at Inter he was really amazing and even finished the Champions League by having the most clean sheets among the other goalkeepers.  Smiley  He probably lost his concentration this season after this bad general performance and started making simple mistakes more commonly.

Branthwaite would be a good investment thinking about the future as well. But Everton is said to be demanding around 70 million pounds. If it is true it is a quite high amount.  Sad  Let's see what the Red Devils will do about it.

Manchester United has appointed a new coach.

No they haven't. Where did you get that information? They are still moving on with Erik ten Hag.

It seems like Man United has learned a lot from what happened in past seasons. Yes, and they should have acted that way, especially because of Ten Hag's several failures in recruitment which caused Man United big losses.
Manchester United have been consistently underperforming in the last few matches and after such a poor performance, they must find the reason behind this poor performance. If Manchester United can find these reasons then they must work on them so that their performance is not so bad in the next season.
It's actually quite sad to read statements related to the word "consistent", which usually refers to consistently increasing competence. However, at Man United, on the contrary, they underperformed consistently. But this is what happened and the fact is that for several seasons, Man United's performance has been quite bad.

Last season Manchester United definitely performed much better than the last season which is why Manchester United got the opportunity to play in the Champions League this season but with the performance they have shown in the English Premier League in the last season, their dream of playing in the Champions League this season is over. Manchester United finished the season in a very poor position in the points table this season which is not expected from a team like them. Manchester United have enough young and experienced players but maybe the manager is not using them properly. Manchester United were rumored to change their manager this season but in the end they have put their faith in the manager once again, let's see if the manager can deliver reliable returns this season.

We all expected that with the help of Ten Hag, we will see Manchester United perform well this season. But this season also Ten Hag was unsuccessful as usual. And throughout the season we have seen erratic performances from Manchester United. Manchester United had a lot of talented players in their squad. However, we do not see any improvement in Manchester United's performance. Our expectations were higher from a team as renowned as Manchester United.

Manchester United has appointed a new coach. It cannot be said for sure whether this team will do well in the next season. Manchester United's overall condition is now weak. Major changes must be made within the party. And Manchester United need experienced players.
