Yes, but it is only tied to a loan contract and if another club makes a tempting offer to Napoli, he can immediately move, but as I have read in my local media, Oshimen also does not want to cut his contract at Galatasaray because he is comfortable there and that is what makes his interest in moving to the EPL slightly less.

He is on fire and I thought there is some risk that he wouldn't get along as well in Turkey, but considering that he is now playing for the team that is by far delivering the best performances in the league, it is not surprising that he is scoring so many goals as he knows how it works and has great players around him, or at least "great" in comparison to other players in the Turkish league.

But he hasn't only scored 8 goals in 9 games, he has also assisted 4 goals, which pushes his ratio to 12 scorer points in 9 games. That is about 1.35 scorer points per game, which is quite impressive and as you said that will bring him onto the radar of the big clubs again. At first I thought he might have ruined his career at least temporarily, but if he keeps going like this I am sure he won't be in Turkey for long.

With his form in mind and how the other players currently show their best, I think Galatasaray could play an important role in the Europa League. Beating them at home would be anything but trivial. I think it's like hell to play against them in Istanbul for almost any team. With the fans backing them and the whole atmosphere, I believe that Galatasaray has a serious chance to make it far in the competition.

Be ready for matchday 5. Teams won't have much time after their local league starts. This international break should be useful for all teams to regenerate condition, get rid of injuries and try new tactics, unless they have too many international players.

There will be great games, such as Tottenham - Roma, Anderlecht - Porto, Twente - Union Saint-Gilloise, Nice - Rangers and Real Sociedad - Ajax.
We have a quite good idea about standing after matchday 5.

Amorim will undoubtedly be the one to make the difference for the boys, I think now they can call themselves "the red devils" because I see that the MU is recovering its essence, in every club there are always problems but you have to realize where the root of the problem is, I think many in the forum realized that the problem was always Ten Hag, some fans too, but I don't know why many also supported Ten Hag despite the fact that he was leading them to the same abyss, the best thing they could do is look for another coach, besides the difference was seen as soon as Ten Hag left, it's incredible the improvement they had.

I do not preach or encourage this priority campaign to Manchester United. If it is possible Manchester United should focus on all the titles. I mean it has been long the make effect in the Champions League and even in the English Premier League. Manchester United is an elite club what have they been doing this while.

The people that I will give the advice of rotating squad is Arsenal, because they have been playing beautiful football for the past two seasons and it's unfortunate they have nothing to show for it because Arteta does not use his squad well. For Manchester United, they should ches everything that is chasable and most importantly play good football to the admiration of their long starved fans.

Ruben Amorim is charged with the responsibility of achieving targets in the Premier League and Europa League, which are their priorities this season. Given the intensity of the competition, Manchester United are indeed better off maximizing all their potential in the Europa League, this is an easier path to getting a ticket to the Champions League next season. In the Premier League, Manchester United actually still have the opportunity to re-enter the top four of the standings, but the competition is very tight. Ruben Amorim certainly has to be wise in rotating his players in each competition, and I think he understands very well how to prioritize his team.

Van Dijk being given a rest by Koeman

Virgil van Dijk has been released from the Netherlands squad before their Nations League match against Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday.
The Liverpool captain played the 90 minutes of his side's 4-0 victory against Hungary on Saturday which secured second place in Group C and a place in the Nations League quarter-finals in March.
Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong has also been released by manager Ronald Koeman after making his first international appearance in 13 months following a series of ankle injuries.
"For both Frenkie and Virgil it is better for them to leave the training camp at this moment," Koeman said.
"That decision was taken on medical grounds, with of course the interest of the players coming first."

Osimhen is going to be sought after only if he is able to train in good performance for his current team. And I think he definitely has the capability. I have already said previously that Victor Osimhen should have gone away from Napoli before the problem between him and Napoli happened. Of course, I was right. Now he has to play in a league he probably doesn't want to. But he has to show great performance and that is how he will be again the target of a lot of big clubs.

By the way, Osimhen has already scored eight goals in nine matches if I am not wrong. So he has definitely got a good start. He should try to do well like this. And I think he will definitely be able to get a good club after this season. But just to remember, the season is definitely not over and he will still have to go a long way in this season and play well during that time.

I wouldn't be so sure about that either, even though it has happened in the europa league that a team takes the league title several times in a row, like Sevilla for example, it's still very rare. But nevertheless, if you look at how they play in the Turkish Super League, it's something with something, they haven't had a single defeat so far, so you can expect a lot from this team.

Tottenham Hotspur football team will win this match because that team has good condition and that team will play with full confidence. Tottenham Hotspur football team has won three matches out of 5 recent matches and the performance of opponent team is not good and that team is losing the matches with consistency . Roma team won only 1 match out of 5 matches and that team lose 3 matches out of 5 and that team became successful to draw one match.  Both teams will prepare well for that match but we can't say that Roma team can't win this match because that is game and any team can be winner of that match.Roma football team has very low ranking and it has 20th position on points table and in the comparison the Tottenham Hotspur has good position and lie on 7 position with 9 points on points table.

For Amorim, it is important what is targeted. If they are aiming for the Europa League, they should give a little less importance to the Premier League. However, if they are aiming for the Premier League, they have to rotate the players more in the Europa League. Because in order to be able to withstand the tiring tempo of Manchester United, they should give less importance to one of these two tournaments. In my opinion, Amorim should aim to be successful in the Europa League. It would be enough if they were in the upper ranks of the Premier League.

There is a lot of expectation on Ruben amorim as he takes over as the new manager of Manchester United. I think it will be unrealistic to expect Manchester United to finish in the top 4 this season and also reach the Europa league finals. Manchester United fans shouldn’t put that kind of pressure on the new manager. They were okay with finishing poorly in the EPL under Erik Ten Hag because they were trusting the process, the fans should extend the faith to Amorim as he tries to rebuild the team.

Usually people will bet on big teams that play in the 4 biggest leagues in Europe, but you precisely take a pretty bold decision by betting on galatasaray, the bet you make of course you have thought carefully at the moment but it is different from you, in fact I see that their chances of winning the UEL are very small, so far they have shown quite good performance in the semi-league phase but we know if the journey is tight will happen when the competition goes into the knockout phase, Galatasaray have good squad, but I don't see them being consistent and bounce back when under pressure like they did at the start of the season when they played in the previous UCL play-offs.

Yes you're right, Galatasaray has been one of the most exciting teams in the Europa league this season with an impressive run of form. But I don’t expect them to win this season's Europa League. Performing well in the group stage doesn't guarantee them to reach the quarter final not to talk about winning the trophy. Betting on Galatasaray to win this season Europa league might is a risky bet.  They might have won the trophy in the past but that doesn't mean that they will be able to repeat history this season.

It's the same as last season. The teams with big names are still favored to win the Europa League. I think it's because we're still at the qualifying stage.

It's kinda weird. After Galatasaray beat Tottenham 3-2, their odds only fell slightly.  

About Galatasaray, you're right. They won 3 of 4 games. But, most were weak clubs, except the Tottenham game.

I'm feeling that to bet on Galatasaray is not good nor bad, but prefer to put it on Lazio. It seems to me this club will be overachieved this season.

Osimhen is having a great moment at Galatasaray, but he's not completely in control of the decision. Napoli is insisting on a price that the Turkish club finds a bit pricey, but they're not relenting. With the interest the club has on the Nigerian players, it's enough to let him stay in the club. And his Salary could be increased just like Lookman in Atalanta. The whole deal relies on the both team reaching to a deal.

In essence, Amorim will make his best efforts to improve the quality and performance of Manchester United quickly this season. Because of course, if Amorim manages to improve the quality and performance of Manchester United quickly, then Manchester United will also get good results which will certainly be good for its position in the standings. So, I personally don't care about the target of winning trophies, because the basic thing that Manchester United must have is good and consistent performance. Because anyway, it will be useless if they target to win the trophy  but, they still have  a  bad performance.

Yea of course it's not a guarantee that if a manager was doing great in his previous team, he must do exactly in his new job as you mentioned, let's not forget that Portugal premiere league is different from English premier legaue which is one of the toughest football league in the world and it's not every manager that survive with their pattern of football, it's also applicable to some players that were doing well in their previous club side but couldn't maintain the same when the came to play for the English premiership side, Reuben Amorim is a good manager, he made sporting cp to win the Portugal premiere league last season which made them the current defending champions of that league and currently sporting cp is still doing great, personally we don't know what will become of him here in the English league which is very much competive.
In the aspect helping to enhance the performance of Manchester United it's possible considering his performance in sporting cp but for that to happen so that there won't be excuse from his own side, the management must allow him to work without much interference on dictating for him on the decison to make, there shouldn't be much control from the management to him, let see what happens next as he is asumming duty fully as the head coach of Manchester United.

Yes, their match in the Premier League will be more threatening than the Europa League, at least that is the assessment that we can make looking at the potential opponents they will face in the next match. We all know how strong Manchester City is, even though they are a team with the status of defending champions in the Premier League for 4 consecutive seasons. While the team that will be their opponent in the Europa League is still struggling to find their best form and now is the 3rd time they have changed coaches. Of course this will be a bigger opportunity that Tottenham can take advantage of in facing the situation currently being experienced by AS Roma.

Oshimon's side came to Galatasaray at a time when no other club was interested in signing the player. Napoli didn't want Oshimon to go to a better club that caused such a huge obstacle to his brilliant career. Had Napoli sold the player to a team in the English Premier League or another league for a normal transfer fee, many clubs would have expressed interest in signing the player, but his value as a player was so high that many clubs turned away from him.

Since Galatasaray has picked this player and stood by him in his bad times, this player should play his maximum for the team and help the team to win the big tournament title. Oshimon is undoubtedly a talented player so if he is given good support he can definitely do well for the team.
