Burnley just got relegated. So they would be very interested in getting promoted quickly. It was interesting to see that the coach with whom they got relegated, that coach was brought in by Bayern Munich lol 

But anyway, that doesn’t change the fact that they got relegated and hopefully the new coach will be able to bring in better results. As far as I know, he was the head coach of Bournemouth and Fulham previously and both of them got promoted to the premier league by his lead, maybe thats why they bring him. whatever, this is not enough history for me to actually judge how Parker is going to do with his new club. Burnley really needs a good technician to be the new coach.

Saliba have been very helpful in the defense line of Arsenal and he is one of the players that made Arsenal to concede less goals in the premier league last season so I feel he is comfortable playing for Arsenal except he changes his mind later on maybe as a result of attractive amount other clubs might offer him but I think Arsenal should do everything possible to maintain the player for next season, Saliba is a very technical player as his technicality can be seen in the France squad while playing at the EURO 2024 in Germany so he is also a good target of other clubs but with the fact that Arsenal made a good performance last season was because their defense was not as porous as they use to be and Saliba also contributed to the good results Arsenal had last season so as Arsenal keeps their hope alive on claiming a league title after many years of hard luck they need to maintain most of the players that was in the team last season because I believe they can still continue in same spirit next season and Saliba should not be an exemption. I feel he will discard Madrid and PSG chase for him to join any of the club even though moving to Madrid will also make him open to winning titles but he should just remain with Arsenal for now.

If the new players was Enzo choice of players, they will be productive because he is a good coach and knows the players that he needs to improve the club performance. Last season it was only Palmer deserved the amount that he was bought, the rest are average players that he bought expensive. Pocchetino would have been given another opportunity but it seems Chelsea's management prefer to deal with Enzo. I think we should wait and see what Enzo has to contribute on reviving the club for them to become champions.

I want to say current strategy is not going to have trophies in coming season because currently they are preparing all things for long run which mean if they are having nothing positive from the next season this is still ok for them as they are bringing youngsters with things are clearly indicating their system is going to be change, and they are going to have things which will help them in long run instead of having any good result in next season.

New coach surely need some time for bringing things which are important for his success and this will surely take time because if they are fail to do things which are important then surely they are going to be had more troubling time having tough time in Premier League and then going for the Conference League is also not easy because we all know Premier League teams are mostly having too many matches for play during mid of the season and then near the end which bring huge load on them and things are never been easy to manage for the coaches with if they have any injury than its creation more mess-up.

Chelsea doesn't seem to be finished in the transfer market this summer. They will certainly continue to try to add back several young players who are considered to have potential. Currently, there are only 3 players who have officially joined Chelsea, namely Tosin, Omari and Marc Guiu. Enzo has indeed made his reputation rise quite high after successfully bringing Leicester City back to the premier league. But the challenges at Chelsea will be clearly different because everyone's expectations will also be different. It is hoped that Chelsea will return to the ranks of clubs that can compete for tickets to the top 4 rankings. And that will give Enzo greater pressure than when he was at Leicester. But I think Enzo feels quite confident in his choice to come to Chelsea. And several ongoing changes and additions to players also show Enzo's long-term planning for Chelsea next season.
Chelsea is currently also approaching Jonathan David from Lille. And that is indeed quite an aggressive move from Chelsea in the transfer market this time. And it seems that Todd has indeed provided large funds for player transfers this season.

Todd can indeed buy players at expensive prices but sometimes the players are not as expected. Moreover, Chelsea doesn't need to buy expensive players but quality and productivity are highly sought after. It doesn't need to be expensive as long as the player is productive enough that is good enough, but I'm sure in the end if Maresca If it fails, of course the fate will be the same as Pochettino's because Chelsea can't wait and go through the process. What they want is for Chelsea to achieve the target, I don't know the vision and mission of Chelsea and Maresca, what agreement they are targeting, whether winning the EPL or other competitions. but the adaptation of the players and Maresca seems to be affecting the start of the new season.

Enzo Maresca's performance in training last season at Leicester was actually very good but when talking about the problem of tension and pressure and the targets that Leicester and Chelsea want to achieve clearly have quite a difference so that even though Maresca performed quite well last season but still there will definitely be a doubt when training Chelsea. later because after all the pressure and Chelsea's goal to be able to improve performance to be even better and again be considered as one of the clubs that is indeed a subscription to the top 4 in the EPL is clearly still the goal of Todd because he will certainly be determined to continue to try to lift Chelsea which in the last few seasons has slumped.

I want to see what changes he will make this season because seeing from some rumors now it looks like Maresca will still make changes to Chelsea to fit the criteria he expects in Chelsea's plans next season and I'm pretty sure we will definitely see an influx of money that is not playing back from a Todd.

It seems Manchester City made a weird decision and they agreed to sell Ederson, their goalkeeper. Ederson has many achievements in Manchester City with Pep Guardiola.
They won the Premier League four times in raw and I'm sure their goalkeeper, Ederson, had an effective role in this team. However, he is still a 30-year-old player and he can achieve more titles.
But it seems Manchester City will accept the offers for Ederson if they have any good offer, while it seems Saudis are interested in hiring Ederson for a huge amount of money.

Yes, buying players will not be a guarantee that the team will get good results because after all, in the last transfer window Chelsea also managed to buy players but in reality they needed adaptation to get good results. So, about Chelsea's success in buying players at this moment, it is just a quick transfer because basically Chelsea also has good finances. Therefore, it looks like it will be easy for Chelsea to get the players they want, moreover the price is still suitable and not too expensive like the previous rumors about signing Osimhen. But yes, in essence there is still no guarantee Chelsea will get good results next season just by getting players faster than other teams.

Apart from Declan Rice, saliba is one of the players who has been the most consistent and has performed quite well so far in the Arsenal defense, so I think Arsenal, who are currently very ambitious to end their title drought which has lasted almost 22 years, of course will not trying to sell his best players at the moment, if we look at his playing statistics of course we can see how tough he is in helping Arsenal's defense so far and even at the current euro we can see how he is quite consistent and irreplaceable in the French squad, so I think Saliba will remain the main priority player that Arteta will continue to maintain at this time.

Saliba, who is able to appear quite impressive, is of course the target of many teams at the moment, Madrid and PSG are the two teams that are currently continuing to try to recruit him this summer, Madrid is targeting Saliba as the right replacement after Nacho decided to leave to qatar, while Luis Enrique who are starting to try to build a PSG squad that is balanced from every line, of course they also made saliba one of their targets to get besides looking for a replacement for Mbappe, currently,saliba have 3 years left on his contract with Arsenal so it seems like the two teams might not be able to get him cross very easily.

Chelsea actually improved a little at the end of last season thanks to Pochettino. But unfortunately Pochettino and Chelsea decided to part ways. And yes, Chelsea also brought in Enzo Maresca who is expected to make Chelsea better, continuing Pochettino's work which is actually not finished there.

And Chelsea seems really serious about only focusing on young players every season after the change of club owner. In fact, currently Chelsea has succeeded in bringing in 3 players in the transfer market. And two of the players are young players who are only around 18 years old. But yes, I have to admit that the potential of these two players is quite good in the long term. The names of the two young players Chelsea have managed to bring in at the moment are Omary Kellyman from Aston Villa and Marc Guiu from Barcelona.

Yes, buying good players cannot be a 100% guarantee that a football team will be great. Because a soccer team contains 11 players on the field, you certainly can't rely on just one or two great players to win a match.  The point is that solidarity and good chemistry are really needed to create a truly great team. I think one of the most important components is that. So it's useless if you buy players who have above average skills, but the team doesn't have good chemistry and cohesiveness. It is certain that a team like that will have difficulty winning every match.

Especially in the Premier League, the competition is very tight. The slightest mistake during a match can have fatal consequences for the team. So teams in the Premier League must be able to unite their players well in order to produce maximum results. Because if not, you can be sure it will be a little difficult to compete well. A big example is Manchester United. We certainly know, several seasons ago Ronaldo returned to Manchester United. However, at that time Ronaldo did not receive good attention from his teammates. Even Ronaldo often has problems with his coach (Ten Hag). The result at that time was that Ronaldo really played very badly at Manchester United. Then Manchester United also got bad results that season. Even though we know that Ronaldo is a really great player and Manchester United also has really talented players. But due to lack of cooperation and chemistry, the results turned out to be bad like that. That's why I emphasize that teamwork (chemistry) is a very important thing for a football team.

Hell nah, if Arsenal want to win Premier League, they need to keep Saliba in their squad.

Saliba played really well, he showed his skill when he play in EURO, despite many of his teammates made many blunders, but he's one of few players that can consistent. Even though Calafiori is a center back player which logically he can replace Saliba's position. But, we will never know in the future, talent isn't everything, but their attitude, goals, physical strength etc are important too.

Check the injury history of this two players:
Saliba, there were only 4 injuries, but all of them are serious injuries - https://www.transfermarkt.com/william-saliba/verletzungen/spieler/495666
Calafiori, there were a lot injuries and what are these shits "unknown injuries"? it could be a fake injuries - https://www.transfermarkt.com/riccardo-calafiori/verletzungen/spieler/502821

Chelsea are looking to strengthen their squad. Last season we saw very erratic performances from Chelsea players. Chelsea management have given their new coach Enzo Maresca possibly full freedom to strengthen the squad. So Enzo Maresca is adding players to the squad according to his preferences. However, Chelsea are yet to make any expensive transfers. So far, Chelsea have not spent a lot of money to add players to their squad. Chelsea management only spent 19 million to add young midfielder Omari Kellyman to the squad. Hopefully Chelsea management will benefit from this player in the future.

Last season we saw Chelsea's main weakness was their defence. Chelsea were behind because of the poor performance of the defenders. Chelsea conceded 63 goals in 38 matches. Chelsea will definitely need to strengthen their defense next season if they want to stay at the top of the table.

We'll see this summer how Enzo Maresca moves in the transfer market to see and choose players to buy and place them in the Chelsea squad. Because for the last two seasons, Chelsea has always experienced bad luck with a decline in the team's performance which is very visible, so Chelsea has again chosen a new coach to take a different direction for a better performance next season by entrusting Enzo Maresca as the team coach. And hopefully that choice will be a better one for Chelsea so that Chelsea fans can be a little happier next season.

The new signings and the change of coach by Todd Boehly  won't guarantee the Chelsea team the opportunity of winning trophies next season but the ability of the new manager to manage the players very well and to foster a good relationship between the players will determine how good the team is going to be next season. Of course Todd Boehly can't be discharged in bringing in new players after his team failed to achieve any trophy last season, he has got to spend less to sign players to add to his squad knowing that he spent so much money last season without having a good result.

Since Chelsea will participate in the conference league next season, Enzo Maresca will have no issues but to bring the trophy home and to make the Chelsea team a major contender in the Epl.

Buying players is not what is considered as good start. Good start begins from when the league has started. I am looking forward to when premier league will start. There are many times you will see a club that sign good players but you might still be disappointed. I have seen this most especially in English Premier League several times. August 16 will come soon to begin the Premier League.

Earlier today I saw in a local news, Madrid appears to be building intrest in saliba of the Arsenal squad, this is in a bid to strengthen their center back but the deal  is still in process as Arsenal attempted a deal with Nigerias star victor osimhen but it latter appears like they are dropping the deal for another subsidiary Riccardo Calafiori who appears like a fair deal which the team accepts they can afford considering the amount they will be need to make the deal pull through for either of the players. Going by the news it appears the gunners may be having may transfer deals this summer

Chelsea have good start after success signing four players than other Premier League teams with linked rumor only, seems Enzo Maresca have high target bring Chelsea back to be big four of premier league teams and keep get in the winning race for domestic league next season.
Its huge transfer did by Chelsea have two months later break out before the Premier League matched begin, Chelsea spent more than 35 million euro for signing the Leicester City winger Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall become the fourth player signed by Chelsea after three success signing before from Tosin Adarabioyo, Omari Kellyman, and Marc Guiu.

Have many days left before window transfer is close and Chelsea seems make many rotation for signing another new players again, I believe Enzo Maresca have easily way for getting new players he want and make its easily how much fees transfer but management always acceptable with their manager decision.

Guardiola's school will allow Maresca to make Chelsea a more attacking team, that's all we can say for now. But Maresca is trying to recruit young players, these are not high-class players who will be able to immediately show excellent results, most likely they will need time to adapt to the new team, and the Premier League is one of the most difficult championships, so it will not be easy for Chelsea. So far I think they could have achieved a better result if they had left Pochettino as coach, but that's just my opinion.
