I disagree with you. Manchester City is still favourite to win the league because Pep has an almost unchanged squad. Gundogan is the player whose absence would be greatly missed, he was their captain and was carrying the team on his shoulders in every games. Another player being rumoured to leave is Mahrez. He's been restricted to the bench, and sometimes when he comes in he produces something spectacular but I don't really see how his departure would affect the team.
Gundogan left and perhaps Mahrez will leave Manchester City but he will not be the only star player will leave Etihad in this summer. Manchester City still have very strong squad to be competitive enough in Premier League and they have high chance to protect their title. However they will be challenged more by competitors like Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and perhaps Manchester United as well as Newcastle United. They are champions in Champions League and they will carry a task to protect it too. I think pressure to succeed in Champions League will continue to impact their performance in Champions League.

Pep is also recruiting good players to strengthen the team like the acquisition of Kovacic from Chelsea and Josko Gvardiol from Leipzig, so they still pose a threat to other teams.
Kovacic and Gvardiol will help Manchester City to have better defense. Kovacic will support Rodri in the midfield and Gvardiol will bring both strength for their defense but also will help them to have more proactively attacking from their back line.
I was quite impressed with the changes made by Pep Guardiola by allowing some of his main players to leave the club and replace them with relatively younger players, especially for Gvardiol who is still very young, meaning that Guardiola understands that to keep his team performing well in the season that will start playing the match needed young players who are fitter.
It does not rule out if it turns out that these players need a longer adaptation than expected, thus affecting their appearance later, but Manchester City still has several old squads that are very likely to close the gap if things don't go as expected.
But once again Guardiola has shown an important role in compiling their players because next season will be even more pressured because there are 3 titles they have to defend, the English premier league title, the FA cup and the toughest in my opinion is the champions league title.
Their appearance was highly anticipated and at times their appearance was quite sluggish at the beginning but managed to cope well until the end of the season.

For starters, I think Manchester City are very much beatable at the moment based on the fact that they are rebuilding their team and some big names have left the club who we all considered instrumental to their success, but with them leaving this could be their only weakest team!

Well Man City remains a strong team. In fact, there are actually no major changes in the composition of the Man City squad this season compared to last season. So I don't think Man City's performance will decrease. And it could actually have increased. Gundogan had indeed left. But many other midfielders can replace his position. Although not as good as Gundogan, Man City still has very high quality players compared to players owned by other teams.

Gundogan was a key player for Manchester City. But I don't think Manchester City will face too many problems without Gundogan in the squad. Because apart from Gundogan, Guardiola has some excellent midfielders like Kevin De Bruyne, Hernandez, and Bernardo Silva. Because of this, Gundogan's absence in the midfield will not be felt much by Manchester City. Because of this, City's performance is more likely to continue in the next season as well. Guardiola has had enough time to strengthen the bond between his players. Hopefully next season we will get the opportunity to enjoy more excellent gameplay from Manchester City.

I think a lot of teams will be looking to be involved in the Premier League title race again next season, with Manchester City widely considered favourites again. We are seeing the businesses of these teams and one way that they can close the gap on Manchester City is by being proactive in the transfer market and they have done just that in the last few weeks. Manchester City City will no doubt be fine next season, they are still favourites to win just about everything but losing these key cogs in their well-oiled machine may prove to be a mistake.

You are right. Manchester City is most likely to win the title next season as well. This is because Manchester City's squad remains unchanged. Only one change has occurred. Gundagon is not staying with Manchester City. But this squad is tested and stable. On the other hand, many clubs in the Premier League are trying to build a very strong squad. Many clubs are adding talented star players to their squads. But we still don't know how these teams will perform in the coming season. Whether the new players can adapt themselves to the teams or not. And so so far I think Manchester City is the favorite team to win the Premier League next season.

Pre season matches has begin that some of the big teams have already had a few matches and yesterday Liverpool was fight against Germany 2nd division team Karlsruher and Liverpool won with the final scores 4-2 and this is good winning indeed but i didn't really satisfied to see Liverpool performance yesterday because they still cannot displayed good performance but Karlsruher looks cannot easily to beat because they can scores 2 goals and the match almost ended with draw if Jota didn't scores at extra time and bringing Liverpool to gets their first winning this season and on that match Szoboszlai have already to make his debut but besides that i have seen in the lineup Klopp has make an experiment with played Alexander-Arnold to midfielder position and the result is not quite bad because he can able to adapt with that position and apparently for this season Alexander-Arnold will have new position

I don’t see the reason why Chelsea will sign a 30 years old player because they lack much of senior players. Are the senior players the only ones in the pitch or they’re the only one that can have effect in the game when they’re much in the pitch? The fact that it is Maguire makes me think that this is just rumor and Chelsea won’t make a mistake of bringing in Maguire to serve as a senior player and example to the younger players. We have seen how his stay as Manchester United went through after he began to play woefully which made them had no choice than to want to part ways with him. He should go get another club to sign for and not Chelsea that are planning to build a stronger squad against next season.
Mauricio Pochettino is one of the best coaches I've ever worked with; he certainly signs mediocre players and instead desires out the most effective of the best. Chelsea are not through with signings this summer; they have activated the option to bring in more. Harry Maguire is a good defender at Manchester United. Rumours are circulating that Chelsea is interested in signing him. I believe that news is false because the defender in question is unlikely to be consistent and had a poor form in the previous season. He is also likely to be among the defenders who cause blunders in the United defense.

The performance of Harry Maguire at Manchester United is not going to cause me to overreact, but I believe we all know that one of the main reasons for Manchester United to lose some points in the premier league and one of the main reasons for them to lose the game against Sevilla in the Europa League was Maguire. This is why I consider the 40 million dollar deal a lot for a 30-year-old player.


Sometimes players have unlucky days maybe that's what happened to Maguire and unfortunately that mistake cannot be forgiven even he always made fun of, if indeed Maguire is no longer needed, it should be released, no problem at a low price. Harry Maguire must also be aware that there is no place for him at Manchester United I will agree if Tottenham are willing to sign him and proved that Manchester United had made a mistake letting him go. As far as I've heard at least 2 clubs in the Premier League want to sign him Chelsea and Tottenham, indeed this is just a rumor but who knows they are really interested for certain reasons.

In other news West Ham are also interested in Harry Maguire after having enough money after selling Declan Rice West Ham plans to look for several new players, one of which is Harry Maguire, it is not yet clear which team is more serious about taking him on but West Ham and Tottenham seem more worthy.

It is still a rumor, we don't know how serious Chelsea to sign Maguire. I even think Chelsea current defenders are better than Maguire. Even if they are not strong enough but they don't score own goals at least.  Cheesy

Harry Maguire is 30 years old, his market value is €20m. No team will spend €40m for Maguire, it is just nonsense to buy a player who has bad performance and he is no longer young defender. Moreover, €40m is overpriced since he is only valued €20m. I assume any club who is interested to sign him for below €10m.
The hype around an English bad player is incredible. Maguire made a lot of mistakes that ripped his team apart and he is still considered that much in market value and people still appreciate him? Foreigners or even national players in other leagues will be humiliated by everyone if they play poorly the way he did. No offence but the defence line was a circus when he play there. I find Chelsea and the other London teams quite crazy to hunt him like that.

I hope this will never come true. I would like to give 1/10 rating for chelsea's management if the club will be recruiting garbage player like him. The worst sign that's gonna be made by chelsea. Meguire can do nothing. He was very useless in manchester united. Chelsea must not be stupid enough to sign him as a new player.
Meguire shall go to the aston villa rather than chelsea. The most stupid playern in EPL with so many blunders that being made by him. Meguire gonna be a flop for chelsea if this transfer gonna be real.

It's not even a team wanna spend 10 million to buy him. I do agree with you if it's a non sense thing to see him being priced so high like that. He shall be worth 5 millions. MU was so crazy by asking 40 millions.
There are great defenders available in the market rather than try to buy him.

This gonna be a very bad story. So many people will be mocking chelsea if this transfer will happen. No more stupid player signed by todd boehly. He's fucking stupid.

30 years is a great age for a defender, when he already has the necessary experience and still has enough strength to play at the maximum. Mauricio Pochettino will probably have the last word, and if Chelsea sign a player, it can only mean one thing that the head coach knows how to neutralize the negative traits of a player and vice versa to use positive traits to the greatest advantage. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for ten Hag and it can't be put in a plus for him, but this does not mean at all that it won't work for Pochettino.

I'm not sure about Man City having a better chance of winning than, for example, last season.... Of course they are the main ones in the fight for the first place in the standings.... But for example Arsenal last season were leading almost the whole season and only at the end they ran out of energy, but they had a great opportunity to win.... This season Newcastle, Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal again... Man City won't have it easy...
I think last season Manchester city in the epl was very strong even though most of the time arsenal led the standings but in the end they couldn't withstand the strong onslaught that Manchester city did. Next season, Manchester City will still be highly favored in the Premier League to win the championship trophy. But yes, all support may be needed to reach the trophy, one of the core players is kept away from the injury storm because if their key players are injured, it will definitely have a negative impact on their performance next season.

The revival of Manchester United also needs to be watched out for by Manchester city because Manchester city is the team that has collected the most trophies in the EPL. So with the current strength I think they will be ready to compete more strongly with Manchester city in the hunt for trophies next season. Moreover, Manchester United has a strong mentality to become a champion, so Pep Guardiola needs to be aware of this from the revival carried out by Erik Ten Hag. Even on the other hand, I also see that Liverpool is trying to find the best form after the recruitment of players carried out by Liverpool management was quite good in the transfer market. So kloop can definitely bring Liverpool back into the top 4 and hope they can create more attractive competition for Manchester City.

Maguire might just do well at the Chelsea defense as he's doing when playing for england.
He may play better in England national team, but I am sure England can play better without him.  Grin
No mate, just don't expect much about him to play well in Chelsea. If there are other options, Chelsea is better to sign other defenders

Players change under the right managers especially defenders. When managers get their pairing wrong it affects players. Did you watch Rudiger play under frank Lampard and Sarri before Sarri left the club and Lampard was sacked (the first time), he was one of the poorest defender I have even seen and wasn't getting playing time because of a flop he was just as Henry Maguire is at Manchester united but then Thomas tuchel came and everything turned around for Rudiger, he was one of the best defender in the premier league at some point and helped Chelsea in lifting the Champions league because our defender were the secret behind our victory that season.

We even sold him to Real Madrid and this was a player we were at some point looking to let go because of how poorly he was performing. I just told you this story for you to understand how vital coaches are to a player. I believe if Henry Maguire meets a coach that can use him to work he'll become a top defender. Let's not forget he wasn't a flop when he was bought so saying he's going to flop if sold is just assumptions. Players change under the right management just as I explained with the Rudiger story. Rudiger has gone on to win another champions league with Real Madrid so don't be surprised if Henry Maguire moves on and become successful as well.
The main point of your entire narrative is that each player's performance within a team solely rests on the coach who oversees the team. Only a skilled coach has the ability to bring out both a player's best and worst qualities. However, before making a definitive choice to sign Maguire, Chelsea must carefully consider all the pros and cons of doing so.
The Chelsea team doesn't require someone to begin regaining his morality and learning effective defensive strategies. The Chelsea team is mostly after quality players for next season. So, for this reason they won't highly go for more quality defender rather than disorganized defenders like Maguire.

Well Chelsea are one of the closest clubs to getting Maguire. Because currently at the Chelsea club there are very few senior players left. Because Mauricio Pochettino continues to release senior players from Chelsea. So that the figure of Maguire is indeed the most suitable for Chelsea at this time which requires players who are experienced at the back.

But Chelsea are reportedly only going to make an offer worth £40 million to sign Maguire. And considering Manchester United's financial condition, which is not very good at the moment. then I think this price will be a consideration for Man United to let go of Maguire. Maguire no longer has a place at Man United. So I think it's time he should go.

I don’t see the reason why Chelsea will sign a 30 years old player because they lack much of senior players. Are the senior players the only ones in the pitch or they’re the only one that can have effect in the game when they’re much in the pitch?

Luis Diaz is wanted by a Saudi Arabian team but Liverpool didn't find their offer good enough so they rejected it. However I don't think Diaz is sad about this even a bit. Because he isn't only a very young player to go there but also he has been showing a really impressive performance for Liverpool. There is no meaning in selling him for Liverpool right now.

It is already not easy to fill Mane's place exactly. Diaz is at least trying to be as active as possible in the attacking line. Liverpool should be keeping him this summer.
Liverpool needs to stop selling their quality players if they really want to remain competitive in the as they were used to. They've already lost players like Roberto Firmino and Jordan Henderson since the end of last season.
Luiz Dias is a very experienced winger who has intimidating attacking skills that he uses to dance past defenders making him a big threat to any defense he's facing. So it'll be totally bad if Liverpool lose him this summer

After failing to secure the league title last season as new Rivals Manchester City outplayed them and finished top of the table last season, the club has reacted well by investing hugely to boost the squad this summer. Arsenal now have another chance to compete for the league and every silverware next season. As Kai Harvertz has said that he is looking forward to winning a trophy with Arsenal next season.
Arsenal has learnt lessons from their mistakes last season that is why they are spending money to buy players to strengthen their team,  if they had spent money to buy players last season I don't think it would have been too easy for Manchester City to lead the league.  It is difficult to tell If Arsenal can still be lucky to have the same opportunity they had last season in this season, other teams in English Premier league are working to strengthen their squad for the competition.

Chelsea is going to hire a player like Maguire because of his huge personal mistakes and I think a player like Maguire is not really interesting for any team to spend huge money for him and 40m is a lot for this player, Chelsea had expensive players before and they didn't get food results that's why I think Chelsea can find a better player instead of Maguire.
It is still a rumor, we don't know how serious Chelsea to sign Maguire. I even think Chelsea current defenders are better than Maguire. Even if they are not strong enough but they don't score own goals at least.  Cheesy

Maguire has had enough and I think players do have a second chance to prove their worth, there could be some transition if he comes Chelsea to play because been a Captain in Manchester United is a big headache he has to . deal with every week and hence the reason why he is always confused in the field that got him playing own goals most of tbe time but who knows Chelsea will be a revival journey to Maguire to redeem his career, he has come far to become bench in Manchester United, there are other teams that would use him even if there is no Captain tag on his hand.

What about player that had good performing year in their previous clubs but becomes worst when they change their club, we have seen it in the premier league many times and the team just get worse with the hype players, having Maguire will give the team less expectations from him and I believe he will want to step up his ways to impress any club that sign him.

A Maguire transfer from Manchester United to Chelsea would be a surprise for several reasons. Maguire had a hard time in Manchester and I think besides the financial aspects he could also be a winner if Chelsea performs well and he can play a part in that success. But if Chelsea fails again, I can already read all the public allegations against the club and those responsible for the transfers because why would they sign players that underperformed when they themselves underperformed and are now trying to recover? Negative times negative is positive? Maguire is a high risk transfer if this really happens as Chelsea doesn't have the time to run some experiments with players who failed elsewhere.
So that's what surprised me. Chelsea management should not pay special attention to Maguire because this defender is 30 years old. Even if we look at it for now it's better not to do it early than they regret it later. But if Chelsea get it for a cheaper price or 20 million, chances are this won't be a big problem in Maguire transfer. But another thing I want to see from Chelsea is that they sell a lot of players so they have to sign players who can really help make a big contribution to the team next season.

Many observers say that the Maguire era is over because he is 30 years old but his career is sinking so quickly. Maguire has found it difficult to get a main place under the coach of Erik Ten Hag, so Maguire career at Manchester United next season could be a substitute bench player.
