Well, Erik Ten Hang push Sancho too much and you can not push someone to the ground without expecting them to react. Sancho won the battle because he didn't apologize as Ten Hang said would be the only way for him to get back to the squad. I hope Ten Hang will learn from this and also learn how to protect his players from the media. He has right to deal with them privately if necessary thou.

However, Sancho performance yesterday was not too impressive but I believe he can do better if continously given time to play. He's so slow in every counter that he leads and kills most of the counter attack. Considering that this is his first game in a while, I will not judge him but he needs to improve on his game.

Manchester United are trying to strengthen every spine of their team. They’ve brought in some players and I don’t expect them to halt their spending any time soon. Their no.1 target in the midfield is PSG defensive midfielder and personal terms have been agreed between them. I will love this deal to go through. He’ll be a good addition to this squad under Ten hag. He’s a different profile from what they have. With the way they want to play this season, he’ll be instrumental in that system.
When he wins the ball, the difference with Casemiro is that he loves to break line almost immediately, Ugarte prefers short circuiting which increases the chances to retain possession and avoid defensive transitioning in a tennis like set up. He loves pressing high sometimes and has a lot of energy
With proper development, his game will be moulded all round. He's just 23. Manchester United should get this seal done with if they’re serious about signing him.

Pep Guardiola has proven that he is a pretty good coach, at Barcelona and Bayern Munich he was also quite successful before finally bringing Manchester City to the success it is now.
Pep Guardiola won't be at Man City forever, he will definitely leave and his contract ends next season and even rumors of his departure have surfaced now but even without Pep Guardiola I don't think Man City will go down too far.
Now the Mancter City team already has a strong team framework and their management has everything to be able to maintain that performance with the strong finances they have even without Pep Guardiola one day.

I saw a friendly match between Rangers and Man United also just because I wanted to see how Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro played, unfortunately, Zirkzee wasn't there for that match. Compared to the match against Rosenborg, Man United performed better this time. Jadon Sancho, who has made amends with Ten Hag, also appeared quite dynamic. Newly recruited Leny Yoro also looks quite stable, and doesn't seem clumsy even though he is playing for the first time for Man United.

But, the one who really caught my attention was Amad Diallo, where the young winger played very impressively, and it looks like he'll get a lot of playing time next season.

Man City seems to have done this because they have all the elements that other clubs do not have: Coach Pep Guardiola is the most talented in the world, who has led the club from 2016 to present. Man City's force is so rich in talented players that they are not staggered by player departures or injuries. Coach Pep Guardiola's talent to raise the level of the players, Man City is dominating the tournament and shows no signs of losing steam.

I don't think Mikel Arteta is far behind Pep Guardiola. If Mikel Arteta comes here, he can bring in quality players. Next season they will definitely not make the same mistakes as the previous two seasons. The question raised after Man City's fourth consecutive championship is whether the Premier League will become a boring tournament like Bundesliga or Ligue 1? Of course there has to be a team that takes down Man City, And good news for other clubs. Coach Pep Guardiola's contract will expire this season, he can leave Man City.

In fact, Lukaku decline when he was still playing with Chelsea was because there he didn't really get adequate support to be able to improve his performance well, apart from that the Premier League is also full of young players which makes competition much more difficult.
But on the other hand, admiration for Lukaku emerged again when he was able to play with the right team and show quite significant skills, so far, only Chelsea have failed to take advantage of Lukaku performance and that is very unfortunate thing.
Latest news is that Lukaku has decided to play for Napoli even though he has to take cut in the salary he can get there, this is half the salary given by Chelsea, but so far there has been no official agreement between the two team.
Previously, Lukaku was one of the players who would be exchanged with Napoli mainstay player but failed and now Napoli want to get Lukaku with purchase and they are offering 25 million Euros, but Chelsea itself is still strong with its request of 35 million Euros.

I admit that Pep Guardiola is a very great coach for Manchester City and since he served as coach of this club he has made Man City the strongest club in the Premier League and even a strong candidate for the Champions League so it is very difficult to stop him. He has shown his ability by winning the title Premier League in 4 consecutive seasons and that is a new record for the history of the Premier League and I know it is very difficult for coaches of other Premier League clubs to beat Pep Guardiola and the only coach who is Pep's rival is Mikel Arteta but still this coach still lost far from Pep's abilities. So I think as long as Man City is still being coached by this coach they will continue to dominate the Premier League unless Pep Guardiola leaves. I think Man City will be able to be stopped by other EPL clubs.

You are excused to take your stance on this, but don't forget Rome wasn't built in a day and we don't expect to see everything tackled in the way we are expecting it at ones, especially in the area of Ten Hag creating a cordial relationship with the old players in the team, as a manager I am quite convinced he had learned from his mistakes and won't risk a repetition of it by letting any misunderstanding between him and the old boys to linger to next season. He's not overhauling the team but adding to cover some loophole's in the squad which were there last season. Some club issues are settled behind closed doors and not everything they'll have to bring to the media, which is why I do believe he's poised to working cordially with both the old and new signings he's getting to the club.

During the week, on the media, He Ten Hag concurred on Rangnick Ralf statement that "Manchester united needs an open heart surgery", an opinion he was once against, at least this changes in his views alone says a lot that he's started seeing things differently  away from his early personal views now accommodating those of others. Which is a good sign for me about this guy Ten...

That is what Tottenham Hotspur has been known for over the years, they aren't winning anything, they are just their spoiling and preventing other top clubs of achieving they goal, so when I sees someone listing Tottenham Hotspur as one of the title contenders, I will just say that this guy doesn't know what he is saying because the Tottenham Hotspur that I know isn't winning anything, anytime soon, and I believe that it's boils down to their mindset and the lack of believe in the team, and that is why they have stayed trophy less for this long.

Ok let's look at this Tottenham Hotspur side over the years, they have always been their at the top but nothing to show for it, they only time they would have won something tangible in the league was when they lost the league title to Leicester city at the bridge, when they drew 2-2 with Chelsea and Leicester was crown champions, that was the only time in modern history that they went close to lifting the premier league title, since that time till now they aren't been better, even though they have hired better coaches that have all failed, I know that this upcoming season, their fans would be more hopeful that they can win something at the end of next season, but it's very much unlikely, because nothing has changed in the club.

It's not about having a famous coach but it all depends on the mentality of the players and luck in the last two seasons, maybe in these two seasons Arsenal with Mikel Arteta didn't have much luck. At least next season there must be a change in Mikel Arteta's mentality in order to build the mentality of the players who failed.  over the last two seasons, so whatever decision Mikel Arteta makes, he will still support him in order to make it easier for him to build the entire team he has built since serving as Arsenal head coach.

You're not updated then, they've signed up Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna who was Seria A young player from the recent season. ( Although, I'm not convinced with him, he need to perform consistently and at a top level in the Premier League ) I've seen him before in the Champions League playing for Bayern Munich but can't recall the season vividly. I've always said this, Rasmus Hojlund doesn't get enough services and also, he seems to have difficulties linking up with midfielder's or should I say the opposite? Maybe!

Manual Ugarte the young player from Uruguay has accepted personal terms with Manchester United. He reminds me of Manchester United legend Roy Keane, hopefully he comes in and blend with Kobbie Mainoo and Bruno Fernandez in midfied. He is a defensive midfielder, Manchester United and Paris Saint Germany are currently having negotiations for the right valuation to get him.

I'd also love Rabbiot, he's got height, it's either they bring back Sofyan Amrabat or make use of that valuation to clear up the salaries of Rabbiot to come in as a free transfer. Zubimendi the recent European Championship winner for Spain has also been mentioned as a possible transfer option coming in. All depends on Scott MC Tominay and Casemiro leaving. I love Casemiro though, he has performed at a top level consistently and has lots of experience to pass on to these young lads.

Even with the right players, I'm expecting them to finish second position or third at the end of next season. Amad Diallo, and the newly signed up Leny Yoro had a great game yesterday.

It turned out that my prediction was right with a 2-0 win.
I might not be very interested in seeing this friendly match but it turned out to be very interesting after seeing the appearance of Sancho and Yoro who are currently very proud and always discussed.
Seeing yesterday's appearance I was sure that Man Utd had almost resolved the previous problem last season and now has no problem with Sancho who is able to build a club to become even stronger.
Erik Ten Hag almost found the key that had been lost in the past few seasons and on this last occasion Ten Hag had to prove.

Lukaku was bought from Inter Milan with the price 100 million above at that time Chelsea under Tuchel was expect Lukaku can solved Chelsea front lines problem but Lukaku performance is dissapointing and he was failed to adapt with Chelsea and Premier League and this makes him have to loan again to Inter Milan and actually at that time Lukaku can performing well when loaned with Inter Milan but although Chelsea changing the manager and Tuchel sacked but Lukaku have no place anymore in Chelsea

I have to says Lukaku game of style isn't suitable to playing at Premier League so in my opinion Lukaku have no potention again to playing in this league and regarding your question why most of Premier League clubs doesn't interested to him because Lukaku reputation makes them very doubt to hire him because if those clubs want buy him then there is possibility for Lukaku will failed to performing well again

Lukaku future in Chelsea is over that i am sure this summer Chelsea can able to sell him to other clubs and indeed so far the most serious club who interested want to buy him is Napoli because Conte personally want him especially both of them has been cooperate together in Inter Milan before and Conte feel Lukaku is a good player and very suitable for his strategy

Yeah I also said this in the Serie A thread, because Lukaku is not the ideal player to compete in the Premier League since Chelsea gave him a chance a few years ago and failed then after that no Premier League team was interested in him they also took Lukaku's age into consideration (31 years) who is not fit to compete as a striker. Chelsea must let him go this season if they don't want to lose money in vain because Lukaku market value and price continues to decline from season to season, Currently his market value is 30 million but no club wants to pay him more than 30 million except for teams from the Saudi Pro League.

Erik ten Hag before now have already spoken about his new relationship with Jadon Sancho and how he's very ready to work with the England international in the coming seasons. The player on his own end have also accepted to work on his attitude in other to foster good relationship with the club manager as they work together to take Manchester United to where they belong. I love the sense of maturity between the two of them and how they've decided to bury the hatchet. It's a win win situation for Manchester United as a club and I believe it's going to help the club improve significantly next season

This attitude reflects wisdom as a leader, and hopefully this harmony can have a good impact on Man United performance in the future. It's not just Ten Hag who has to lower his ego, all players also have to behave in this way to respect each other, it's difficult to achieve success if these simple things can't be created within a team. Maybe Ten Hag has realized that Sancho has great potential, and can make a contribution if he is given time to show his quality.

On the other hand, Ten Hag has reportedly made peace with Sancho, and no longer has any problems with the player. I don't think the old incident will happen again, and Sancho will be loaned to another club again. Additionally, Ten Hag said that Sancho will be in his plans next season, and will give him the playing time he deserves. With Dortmund, Sancho performed quite well, Ten Hag will definitely not waste Sancho's talent next season. We'll see whether Ten Hag words will be carried out, or  Sancho it really can't adapt well to the Man United environment.

yeh Romelu Lukaku still has a strong potential to play in English Primer League(EPL) but unfortunately there are no clubs which could take an interest in him from the EPL side. Romelu Lukaku still has the ability to compete with the higher level at EPL besides that he also has enough experience with the English Premier League but I think there is no way to get the chance to play again in the former English Premier League because the rumors between Romelu Lukaku and Napoli look serious. So there are high possibilities that Romelu Lukaku could be slightly move to Napoli I mean next season he will play at Napoli.
 
By the way it would be nice if he could stay in Italy because according to you, he also has experience with Roma and Inter Milan. So if Romelu Lukaku switches his move to Napoli instead of Saudi Arabia. It would be beneficial to get the chance to get back into great form like he did at Everton, Chelsea and Man United. But anyway keep an eye on Fabrizio Romano's tweet about Romelu Lukaku departure.

It turns out that Erik Ten Hag has been able to distance himself from his arrogance towards Sancho. It seems like he really regretted last season for loaning Sancho to Dortmund and this season Erik Ten Hag has made peace with Sancho and hopes that they can establish good harmony to provide the best for Manchester United. Sancho is a quality player and he must be given the opportunity to show his quality this season. It was a bit surprising when Erik Ten Hag started Sancho as a starter in the friendly match against Rangers. But that is the reality that Manchester United needs Sancho strength and I hope Sancho can find his best form this season.

That might be an excuse but looking at Tottenham's performance this actually happened not only in the Postecoglou era but when in the Conte era and even Pochettino too they had the same problem where the start of the season they always looked very good but it changed towards the end of the season which made Tottenham's performance erratic.

This season is again a real challenge for Postecoglou but indeed by looking at the conditions that occur I cannot expect much it seems for Tottenham because after all for dark horses they are indeed very strong, but when talking about competition and slick performance during the season they still cannot show it because they always have problems about it.

I don't think if there is any big issue in Arsenal to make this team lose the Premier League title each season. They had good performances in this season and the last season when Manchester City won the title. Still, the fact about Arsenal and Manchester City is that Manchester City has a much better coach like Pep Guardiola in this team who can be a great advantage for this team. At the same time, Arteta is not experienced enough like Guardiola and that's why they are losing it.
