Gimme a break, Ronaldo was at ManU ergo i wrote about him in PL thread Neymar 160mln for two years, how daft you need to be to believe those numbers. Quick reminder Levandovsky refused SA offer of 100mln a season cause he rather earn at Barca less than 20 in salsa sauce. YEAH RIGHT In a times when transfers go off cause of 50k or 100k how anybody can believe someone would refuse SA offer if the numbers are even half true? And those numbers with Mbappe? 300 for one season? And he rather get 50mln loyalty from PSG. I know he's no genius in math but

Same vibes

Seen few Southampton games due to Bednarek and while i can admit polish defender was abolutely dreadfull, walking running calamity.....ketchap was even worse! Always late, missplaced a lot of easy passes i think what he only have is pace. He is like worse Upamecano. Maybe the worst PL defender last season and Southampton is making a healthy 10mln profit Tuchel is cooking probably the worst Bayern in last 20years [Trappatoni/Ribbeck days?]. Maybe Kane will elevate those guys but IMO this will be similar season [still Bayern is out of reach for BVB] to last and if Bayerns board didnt have good opinion about quality of Nagelsball i think Tuchelball is even worse to the eye. Looking at the RB squad i wonder where Baugmartner will fit, seem for now only sub? And i forget completely that RB have still Dortmund legend Kampl

Imagine Watzke/Zorc kidnapped Kane in that corridor. Come to Dortmund So if he is healthy that mean odds on Bayern to win the league will go down from 1,05 to 1,02. No CL final with big Kane input and i think the world will see this as a bust. Tuchel is pokal miracle worker but i dont think this squad will go to the final if they will not be as lucky as italian teams this year. Too many question marks in this squad [Kepa]. Will be interesting.

Atalanta is quite dominating, especially against 10-20 placed teams. They create a lot of chances and 32games and 9goals looks pretty bad for me. Even in Sturm Graz he had 18games and 9 goals. Thats all his senior efforts! 50games 18goals and 80mln transfer. Quite a gamble, i think what saving him is national team efforts a bit. Haaland got like 100 senior goals when he went for City, diffrent case IMO BTW Pole Szymon Włodarczyk is now in Sturm and he scored 2goals in 2games plus 3 in austrian pokal. Didnt score only against PSV thrashing 4:1. Said it once that he is very wooden but by all means he is on the way to make Hojlund numbers Ten Haag is good coach even if in back my head is this voice that no good coach lose 7:0 but he revived Rashford, integrated Casemiro/Martinez. He can have plan for Holjlund but judging from his previous seasons i dont think he will fire goals in his first season and thats the expectation! @WuDuIm not that hot against mailman but trio Demirovic, Berisha and Beljo will be hard pressed to make 9g and 11a zusammen! I know austrian league is mostly 2nd Buli or even dritte liga level apart from two/three top teams [and Wolfsberger is not one of them], but still its weird that team like Augsburg is kicking him away. 2mln for german throwaway is big price, they have one John Yeboah and after good start he is very frustrating. Thats how he fumble one on one running with few meters advantage at defenders. This one almost costed Rakow playoff win. Video https://sport.tvp.pl/71719214/el-lm-karabach-rakow-john-yeboah-nie-wykorzystal-sam-na-sam-wideo In other news once highly rated Michał Karbownik signed with Hertha for 2,5mln. He was bought three years ago by Brighton for 4+2. I think those 2 never materialize since he was loaned since, with Olympiacos paying 1mln for his loan only to play him in the reserves He's got good spell in Fortuna, and had some offers between Fortuna/Schalke and Hertha. I would advise him to stay in Fortuna or go to Schalke, even if money is slightly worse. Dardai Berlin is such a bad choice.

@WuDuOutside the box=not proven in Europe top5 or playing in other continents. So Vitor Roque and Endrick fits. Never seen both but Bayern should be able to compete for those especially with broke Barca. Ramos will be available next year with 50% discount, Cunha was Mendes shenaningans and with Hojlund who knows. I mean he looks special but another year in serie A would not hurt. Could be too soon. Im starting to feel that Kane doesnt give a f if transfer go through. If yes then he will give it a chance but if not he will go for free next season, maybe even to City if Haaland decides to run off to Madrid. Rakow interessiert sich mit Maurice Karl Malone. Augsburg player was at loan in Wolfsberger 9g 11a, played zweimal in u21. Somehow Augsburg is kicking him away [hard to imagine they're swimming in offensive talent there to not giving him a chance] and Rakow is bidding 2mln. This one looks like a happier Haller

Bayern should just stop negotiating with Levy and banned him and whole premier league with any dealings. I mean players are always overpaid almost always overrated why bother? You have whole fooken world outside of UK. This talk that there is no good strikers is such a bull, why not think outside the box, get someone unproven. Or get 3 unproven strikers [one from Argentina super league one from Brasil and one from Ekstraklasa ] one can make the jump and be awesome. Even meme player Piatek would be good at Bayern, at least would get Wagner numbers if not Gomez. Just look at Chopo, who is nowhere near top club material but he is somehow usable. Why bother having scout department or reserves team, if your targets are Walker/Rice/Kane. Make one lowballl offer then bigger one no, than thanks fook off Maybe Tel/Choupo will be enough. Title is in the pocket, DFB pokal 90% and with good playoff shuffle there will be final. Then i dont know how financially Bayern is standing, but throwing 120mln on a old guy with many injuries could be a problem. Im probably bad person for saying this but this so funny to me

Thing is Raya is supposedly good with his legs where Ramsdale had few misshaps this preseason. Even in Community Shield ive seen one at the end of the game. He is just calamity waiting to happen. Its like lego boy mentor replaced Bravo with Ederson. Thing is Raya might be exceptional with ball playing but i dont think he is world class shot stopper.

USA

Romano with here we go, Edson Alvarez to West Ham for 30-35. I think there is big chance this could be next Palhinha case. Year ago its was the same talk, that he is only good at destroying, dont give anything in offence, not technical enough, not athletic enough and all that bull and only lowly Fulham pull the trigger when everyone and their mother at least in Portugal knew he is top club material. Now Fulham is expecting something about 80mln for him. Alvarez could be the same. Im dumbfounded as to how shortsighted top clubs can sometimes be.

Sonny Kittel with a winnner today

Polish/German Maik Nawrocki for 5mln + boni to Celtic. Legia also with 20% of next transfer. Not wanted by Werder reserves 2,5y ago and send on loan to Poland, first one ruckrunde in Warta then two seasons at Legia. This year Legia paid Werder 1,5mln which is a ridiculous price for a guy who not only not debuted in first team in Germany but also played only 8 games in reserves team. I guess Legia doin Legia things or maybe Werder with good instincts slapping that pricetag. From pure defending perspective he is a great player, he is always there to defend/block, real leader of defence. Also very threatening in offensive which is always good [5goals last season]. However he is terrible at ball playing, his touch/pass often is amateur level. He is like those goalkeepers who have world class saves only to make one or two blunders a match. Also his injury record is a bit worrying. You could say he is sold only after his first full season [25 out of 34 games last season].

And while were speaking about Greta...I dont know exactly why i find her hilarious. I think its those faces shes making. Would make great comedy team with G.W.Bush.

Opening of the season in Ekstraklasa and already this banger. Goal very similar to Paul Scholes one.

Sabitzer is perfect example of a player who lost all the confidence. He seemed many times out of place in ManU where he slowed so many attacks playing sideways or to the back. At some point it was laughable how he was terrified going forward. Certainly didnt fit with Bayern even if he started pretty good. Played well in RB but even there you could see he wasnt top player and Bayern was taking a gamble. Now he is a solid/underwhelming squad player at the most. Maybe he wil reinvent himself, premier league is better/faster than buli but to me its more Bayern win than Dortmund gain. They just offload their deadwood onto biggest rival and for quite good money too[they even made profit of 5mln on this guy]. Now im thinking who would i want more, 25mln Xhaka or 20mln Sabitzer, tough one I would pick Sabitzer, cheaper and younger at least, should be sellable for 50% after one/two years, but both of those transfers are terrible. Im really curious what role Guerrerio will play in Bayern. Im thinking more like Raphinha in his mascot days, but who knows, maybe he will play ahead of Davies.

On first july 2023 Rakow signed for free https://www.transfermarkt.com/maxime-dominguez/profil/spieler/207561. After signing Kittel there is big crowd there and media inform that Dominguez is being sold to Gil Vicente after 20 days in the club Judging by the club ablose will be rather small, like 300-400k, but still its funny. Football manager stuff there.

Throwback to the time when Mane was hitting guys from other team

So its midfield Terodde

3 year contract, didnt find for how much but probably no less than 350k-400k salary. Few years ago there was a talk about him in national team, as we could use goalscoring midfielder but somehow this thing fade away. Time will tell how this will end. I know i dont like its 3 years, 2+1 would be enough or even more 1+1. I think its low risk transfer, if he flops/is past it he will be back in 2.buli/3.buli for some 100-200k. For ekstraklasa he should be more than ok, i expect 10goals His goalscoring record is more than ok even if its only 2.buli, very strange he didnt have his chance at first tier. Raków in midfield is stacked, both in numbers [think this year Red Bull numbers] and quality [for Ekstraklasa]. What they need though is striker i hope this doesnt mean that the transfers are over.

Sweden One of the best songs of 2022.

What is goin on at Bayern? Overrated Goretzka who is still livin of that covid season oficially for sale as Tuchel cant look at him, with lowly West Ham sniffing around. Today they said they dont consider Kimmich unsellable. This really look like gathering funds for going all in for Kane or they simply have financial woes. Maybe very sympathehic looking Tuchel is antagonizing whole club. Both Kimmich and Goretzka on huge overpaid contracts so it would be probably good for budget. Its like with Ajax when they claimed 5-10years ago that they can buy any player in the world [reports were they have more than 300mln in the bank] but they chose no to. It was more than not believable since every year Aax was selling players for great value and buying for peanuts. Now after bad transfers last season they dont have 15mln for new player and wait for Alvarez sale Bayern claimed the same thing, that they can have anyone they just not wiling to pay crazy money.
