True, changing coaches is not bad thing but just look at how Todd Boehly does it, he is not satisfied when the coach fails to build Chelsea but on the other hand there is also dissatisfaction when the team has shown more significant development.
Everything has happened and basically Todd Boehly has quite high ego and it is even very difficult to guess what his thinking was to do all this while he was the owner of Chelsea.
Todd Boehly ambiguous decision is only in the way he makes decisions to always change coaches and I think things like this must be changed, he should really believe in the coach he thinks is the right one, otherwise Chelsea will never develop well.

Chelsea has been able to overcome the problem of players, they have many young players with potential, even some players who are older can still play well, task in developing Chelsea is actually to find the best strengths and make them more stable.

Salah still has a contract until 2025 and if he is comfortable with Liverpool it is likely that he can have a contract extension even though he is 31 years old but his talent is still really needed to help Liverpool get good results in the EPL and Liverpool is one of the popular teams in the EPL that is certain there will always be lots of alternatives when a mainstay player plans to leave the team, of course the management already has alternatives to bring in the player they are targeting who has the same talent quality as Salah.
but it still all depends on Liverpool management, which always plays an important role in player regeneration to maintain the stability of the team's performance.

and for Arne Slot, we don't need to worry about Liverpool choice because we all know that Liverpool will never be careless when it comes to bringing in a coach for their team, while the future of the team also depends on how the coach can manage players and rotate them perfectly to continue producing consistent results strong.
maybe many people doubt that Arne Slot is not very experienced, but believe me, sometimes a coach like this can give good results in the future.

Yes, Todd Boehly is too aggressive in making decisions, he is like a rich man who doesn't understand the football process even though the Premier League always faces big challenges from season to season. If Chelsea wants to develop then he must be patient and plan wisely. Maresca is indeed quite good with Leicester but he will be under a lot of pressure if Boehly still sticks to the same principles. However, Maresca was lucky because in the club's history, Italians have always had a good welcome at Stanford Bridge.

I think Man Utd could fight for top 4 but like their odds suggest, their chances of winning the title are extremely unlikely.

I don’t know what to expect from Slot’s Liverpool team but I really hope we can compete for the title.

Lmfao, and even if I want to learn, even if I want to understand, not from you, because I wonder how you can say this is football anything can happen and you still go on to say Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United will not improve next season? You obviously lack football knowledge and just trying to fit in. Your context is enough evidence you didn't or never played football so you will never understood, and you must be one of those that watch football with lots of hate and bias because you hate and dislike a club.

Setbacks are part of the coaching job and also, most of these Manchester United players dis not do well for the coach. He had Injured players especially from the back which is one of the best ways he has build the Manchester United side since he took over. Football has evolved not everyone will understand this.

Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte managed Tottenham Hotspur but the management failed to upgrade the squad how do you expect all of those high expectations to go on? T's same with Manchester United as they need improvements.

And how can you say two trophies are not important? Then you don't know anything about the history of Manchester United. Even before Erik Ten Hag, how many finals has Manchester United found themselves? Lol. Please do better.

You don't know that because you don't have a direct contact in the dressing room. Are you siblings with Marcus Rashford? Or Harry Maguire? Because they seem like people to leak such informations out lol. Wait and See and in between, listen to commentary and learn with your ears and eyes.

The new Liverpool coach was a manager for another team that did not have premier experience, and now he will be managing a team with premier experience. Seriously, premier is a tough competition, and Liverpool has many experienced players, but my own concern is how the new coach is going to manage the team successfully because when he was coaching Feyenoord, the result was not enough to convince me that he will be able to compete with other teams and do as we want in the Premier League. Although the UCL competition is not small and also tough, I think the Premier League is tougher because if the teams in the Premier League are so serious, I don’t know, but let’s see a good result from him.

As for the players, you think it is normal for a team to get prepared if they know that they have old players that will retire soon. I think this is not a new thing because if they really want to keep the squad very active, they need to do that. 

It is very unfortunate that when Liverpool start appearing in the Champions League next season they have to go through a transition period with a new coach. The Liverpool squad is starting to form solidly under the management of Jurgen Klopp, but because he decided not to continue his career with Liverpool, the club's top officials had to entrust the coaching chair to Arne Slots. There will always be an impact from a change of coach, Arne Slot needs time to build close chemistry with the players.

The strategy used by Arne Slot will be different from the previous coach, perhaps he will immediately regenerate the Liverpool squad by selecting several senior players who are almost at retirement age to guide the young players in maintaining the balance of the team. Collaboration between players of different generations can be a good strategy in maintaining team performance. When there are several senior players included in the core squad, young players can control their emotions and team cohesion will continue to be good. As is generally the case in the transfer market, Arne Slot will try to bring in new players in preparation if senior players or those who have reached retirement age decide to leave the club.

Even playing in the Europa League, Liverpool couldn't become champions there even though the Europa League is not as big as the Champions League and surprisingly he was defeated in the quarter-finals, meaning he lost before reaching the final, a bad result for a club as big as Liverpool, even though most people's expectations were that Liverpool was the favorite to win. won the Europa League title at that time but unfortunately it didn't live up to expectations, next season we will see Liverpool playing in the Champions League with their new coach the results could be better or worse but everyone expects good results for a club as big as Liverpool at least not lower than the quarter finals .

Who means that several Liverpool players will retire? I think Liverpool players are still fit enough to play and I have not heard of several Liverpool players who will retire, even Mohammed Salah is still far from the age to retire, he is still fit enough to play for Liverpool as a reliable striker, but if there is a club that makes an offer to Liverpool with the high transfer fee for Liverpool I think the management will consider it, besides that I don't expect satisfactory results in the coach's first season because every coach usually needs time to improve the club's performance.

Liverpool may indeed have to look for several talented young players in the transfer market to become mainstay players in the future. Just like what Real Madrid and Barcelona do in Laliga, they always develop young players for the club's future. But maybe their focus now is adapting to the new coach. And let's hope it goes well. Because still, even though Liverpool's first season with a new coach will be a difficult season to predict, I hope Liverpool don't experience bad results. Because I want the competition in the Premier League to be as interesting as last season.

But Arne Slot seems to have also targeted several young players to be placed in the back line. And Liverpool, in this player transfer market, seems to have prepared funds of £128 million to look for new players who can strengthen the team. And reportedly Arne Slot intends to bring in one of the defenders from Feyenoord, namely Geertruida.

Yes, Todd Boehly seems to want to bring Chelsea to more instant success, but actually this will certainly be a little difficult. Because it requires a fairly intensive process and also takes quite a long time to make a football team truly mature (become great). So even though Todd Boehly has quite a lot of money, if he can't change his mindset, I think Chelsea will have difficulty developing. So it's true, it looks like Todd Boehly really needs an advisor who is truly an expert in the world of football. Because, it is natural that Todd Boehly wants to make Chelsea successful quickly, or is too hasty. Because basically he is not a player or expert in the world of football, but a well-known businessman. So of course, he didn't have much experience regarding football. So Todd Boehly must be given better direction, so that his team can develop rapidly. Because it would be a shame if the money Todd Boehly spent was wasted because he doesn't have enough experience in the field of football.

And now the Chelsea coaching chair is filled by Enzo Maresca, I think he is a pretty good coach. The reason is that last season, when he was still coaching at Leicester City, his progress was quite good. Because, he succeeded in bringing Leicester City to qualify for the Premier League next season. So if Todd Boehly is aware of that, I think keeping Enzo Maresca for a few seasons will definitely have a good impact on Chelsea. Especially if Todd Boehly spends more money in the transfer market this summer to buy several players. Certainly Chelsea could have a much stronger squad depth.

I also think Liverpool team needs to prepare for future because Salah might leave soon. Club needs to find new players who can take his place. New coach Arne Slot has had average results in past so I am not sure about his coaching how he will do for Liverpool. But he might do better at Liverpool because they have stronger team. We should not expect everything to go perfectly in his first season. It will take time for him to adjust and make his plans work. Liverpool success depends on good planning developing players and making smart decisions.

Its not surprised news with Manchester City have problem with their financial fair play or FFP because almost last several years ago this issues have been show to the public but never get suspended such as Everton faced 10 points deduction last season with financial problem. Manchester City not balance yet with their transfer activities because most spending much money for signing new players than receiving much money from selling their players.

Premier League season 2024/25 still longer and each teams has more than two months later before first match start, some team have prepare for pre season training and they have schedule of pre season match and looking for the potential formation next season.
I am waiting with Liverpool under new manager Arne Slot will make difference and Liverpool become the top fourth of premier league team in this season or he failed with his first season debut with The Kop.

When you started from 0 and your opponent started from 100, how can you call that is not an important problem? Liverpool must be starting from the scratch again. It means liverpudlians may not expect the good performance from liverpool under arne slot on his first season in the reds.
What experience is it? Arne slot is obviously non experienced coach in manage the big club. Arne slot never manages the big club on his career. This is arne's first time in managing the big club like liverpool.

Liverpool shall sell the players that will be running out their contracts. The reds must cash in them before it's too late. But, who is gonna retire from liverpool? You can mention at least two names. I only know about joel matip who is gonna retire after he exit from liverpool.

In terms of squad depth, maybe for next season we don't need to worry about it. But for the next few seasons well that will turn out to be quite worrying. Because this club must start preparing players who can replace Salah if Salah leaves. And Salah, who is also no longer young, will definitely not last much longer at Liverpool. So Liverpool must start preparing it now.  And regarding Liverpool's new coach, Arne Slot, I actually don't really know the data about this coach. He has experience in the UCL and European League with the Feyenoord club. But the results are not that good. But maybe because Feyenoord's depth is not that good. And maybe Arne Slot could be a better coach at Liverpool because Liverpool has better squad depth. But well, we can't expect his first season at Liverpool to run smoothly. Because there will definitely be several adaptations and readjustments throughout his first season at Liverpool.

To me the main reason why they still have him as the manager of the side is because quality managers are no longer in the market, they're all occupied so they had to hold on to the one they have instead of throwing him off but they're waiting for Southgate I think, he (Southgate) said if he fails to win the Euros that he's leaving the 3 Lions which means UTD board are eying him, so to me ETH is just covering the position till Southgate comes, they know England isn't going to win because to me they're not as strong as the other countries only over hyped players they have.
Would you blame him? The players ain't cool with him, the FA CUP finals was one of the best of ETH and Manchester United players, the players played out their best and it paid them in a positive way by lifting the trophy. If they have been playing like they did against City I believe they would've finished in the top 4 of the table but since they don't fancy his (ETH) style of play then they have to behave any how, win today and lose straight 3 games.

Yeah I get it, that's why I said there's no need to expect more in the first season because building a team is not an easy thing, especially if there are new talents there. We know how Klopp built Liverpool, which was once the best team in the Premier League and next season they will have to adapt to a new style it's clear there will be an impact on the squad. Do you think Arne Slot can take Liverpool to the same level or higher? as we know he has no experience in the Premier League.

Based on history on transfermarkt Liverpool have not been active in the transfer window there are no new players except players who return after being loaned to other teams.

You have comfortably highlighted one of the problems of so many football clubs. When a particular club has more number of old players than young players, you know that there is a looming problem. You should look at Real Madrid very well, when their player started aging, they did not outrightly sell them. The had to keep the old players and buy young ones, this made it possible for the old players to groom and nurture the young players to being world class footballers. Even when some of the old players insisted of retiring, just like Toni kroos. The club had to beg him to stay one more season. And today he has groomed people to replace him in the club. This cannot be said about Liverpool where someone like sadio mané left without anyone replaceing him, and any moment from now Muhammad salah will also live and he will not be replaced. How will The young ones that they will sign know the norms of the club. How will the young ones that they will sign learn to continue the legacy, especially when there is a new coach. I am praying hard that what happened to Manchester United and Chelsea should not happen to Liverpool.

Yes, at least Liverpool has experienced an improvement in their position in the Premier League standings this season after previously failing to enter the UCL zone and also failing to win the Europa League trophy. So no matter what, Liverpool will also fight as optimally as possible in the UCL in the future, because this is what they always dream of beating various top clubs in the UCL even though they know this will definitely not be easy.

Based on the news, Man Ciy has been reported that they still have to sell one of their top players to help improve their financial problems. Many have speculated that this will be the new Alvarez so far, he is a player who is being targeted by various clubs, but Man City are still not willing to let him go. Maybe the main reason is actually related to the price. So, maybe if there is a suitable price, there is no possibility that Man City can finally let him go.

There's something you don't seem to understand, this is the game of football, anything can happen. And we saying so is suppose to happen that way but it didn't because we all including yourself say things base on how we're seeing it. When a coach like Erik who has been making mouth of winning trophies for the club start messing up do you think he shouldn't be sacked? When he came to the club the expectation was high and everything seems to be promising but later on things started working against him and you'd agree with me that this man has lost control in the locker room of UTD. No one is being biase here is just how it is, I don't know about others but the Red Devils don't have anything to offer next season.
Manchester United would give out those two trophies just to be in the finals of the champions league, those trophies don't mean anything compared to the UCL trophy and EPL title, so you shouldn't be too comfortable with that, face the fact Manchester United are never going to improve until the issues they are battling with indoor are settled.
The body language of the players don't really want Erik ten Heg and you know it so let's call a spade a spade, I'll still say it that the relationship between Erik ten Heg and the players ain't healthy, take a good look at how Pep, Arteta and former Liverpool coach Klopp relate with their players, the joy in the locker room of those managers will always make the players to play for the manager every week, but that's not how it is for ten Heg.

It wouldn't be an important problem for Liverpool if they started from the bottom again, Liverpool needs experience like this to form a new strategy that might give Liverpool victory in the next match. When many Liverpool players are about to retire, they will take advantage of the opportunity to buy new players at a young age. In this way, the strategy used by Liverpool will have the potential to put on a good show in the next match.
