WHY Mateus Fernandes Could Transform Tottenham’s Midfield… Replacing quality in midfield isn’t just about signing the biggest name. It’s about finding the right profile. Mateus Fernandes looks tailor-made for Roberto De Zerbi’s football. Comfortable receiving under pressure, constantly scanning the pitch and capable of breaking lines with progressive passes,...

WHY Sandro Tonali Could Be The Engine Of Spurs’ Midfield… Sandro Tonali isn’t the traditional holding midfielder many Tottenham fans might expect. And that’s exactly why he’d be such an interesting fit for Roberto De Zerbi. Tonali thrives in high-intensity football. He’s constantly scanning, covering huge distances and looking to play forward rather than simply recycle possession. His athleticism and ability to break lines make him the type of midfielder who can inject tempo into every phase of the game. That’s why he feels less like a conventional number six and more like the engine of the midfield. Alongside someone like Mateus Fernandes, Spurs would have two technically gifted midfielders capable of progressing the ball through pressure and accelerating attacks from deep. There is a trade-off, though. Neither Tonali nor Fernandes is a specialist defensive anchor. Tonali can struggle aerially and isn’t at his best defending large spaces in one-versus-one situations, meaning Spurs would still need the right structure around them. If De Zerbi gets that balance right, the midfield could become one of the most exciting in the Premier League. And while a £100m fee sounds enormous, the Telstar Transfer Index shows it would still sit just below Gazza’s move when adjusted for football inflation. Spurs fans, would Tonali transform your midfield? 👀⚪ ⬇️ Full Video Below 📹 Samson Kalnińş Brough

WHY Carlos Baleba Could Finally Fix Manchester United's Midfield... For years, Manchester United have struggled with the same problems. Too easy to play through. Too vulnerable in defensive transitions. Not enough athleticism to dominate midfield battles. Carlos Baleba could be the answer. The Brighton midfielder combines explosive ball-carrying with elite duel-winning ability, giving United the physical profile they've lacked for years. He's not the type of player who dictates every attack…but he doesn't need to. His biggest strength is chaos management. Win the ball, burst through pressure and turn defence into attack in a matter of seconds. Alongside Andrey Santos, Baleba could give United the perfect balance. Santos controlling the tempo from deep, Baleba providing the energy, ball-winning and carrying power further forward. There are still areas to develop. His passing can be inconsistent, his decision-making remains raw at times and he isn't a natural deep-lying playmaker. But that's not the role Manchester United would be asking him to perform. At a reported £70m, the Telstar Transfer Index suggests United could actually be buying below market value. A year ago, Baleba was being discussed alongside Moisés Caicedo, whose inflation-adjusted fee would exceed £100m today. United fans, is Carlos Baleba the midfielder you've been waiting for? 👀🔴 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

WHY Granit Xhaka Could UNLOCK Cole Palmer… At 33, he doesn’t fit the profile of a typical BlueCo signing. But he might be the perfect signing for Xabi Alonso. When the pair worked together at Leverkusen, Xhaka became one of the best passers in Europe. His ability to dictate tempo, play through pressure and find runners from deep was fundamental to Alonso’s system. That relationship could be recreated at Chelsea. Alongside Moisés Caicedo, Xhaka could alternate between dropping into the first phase of build-up and progressing play, while Cole Palmer occupies the pockets between the opposition’s midfield and defence, giving Chelsea elite creators in both deep and advanced areas. Of course, there are risks. At 33, his athleticism isn’t what it once was, so Chelsea would need to surround him with runners rather than ask him to cover huge spaces on his own. But that’s something Alonso has already shown he knows how to manage. And when you compare the reported fee through the Telstar Transfer Index, it falls into a similar range to Claude Makélélé’s move to Chelsea. For a player who already understands every detail of Alonso’s football, that could prove to be one of the smartest deals of the summer. Chelsea fans, would you bring Xhaka to Stamford Bridge? 👀🔵 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

🚨Steve Holland on Manchester United’s summer midfield plans with Carlos Baleba, Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali and Elliot Anderson all under consideration: 🗣️ “Manchester United’s priority is to build a midfield that can control games, win duels and still have the technical quality to play progressive football. The ideal midfielder for Manchester United today is someone who can defend large spaces, recover possession, progress the ball quickly and contribute in both phases of play. That’s why different profiles are being discussed. Sandro Tonali is attractive because he is already proven at the highest level. He brings leadership, intensity, tactical intelligence and experience in big matches. Carlos Baleba offers physical dominance, athleticism and defensive security. He has the profile to become one of the best ball-winning midfielders in Europe. Elliot Anderson is admired because of his energy, versatility and ability to carry the ball through midfield. He understands the pace of the Premier League and has shown he can influence games consistently. Mateus Fernandes is viewed differently. The club sees him as a player with huge potential, technical quality and room to develop, but also understands that he is not yet as proven as some of the other names being considered. The reason Tonali, Anderson and Baleba are receiving so much attention is because they fit the immediate need for reliability and physical presence in midfield. Manchester United want players who can compete now while also helping build the foundation for the future. The club likes Fernandes, but when comparing profiles, Tonali, Anderson and Baleba are seen as players who can impact the team immediately while still having their best years ahead of them.” {TNT Sports }

WHY Morgan Rogers Could Force Chelsea To Change Their System... Morgan Rogers is one of the Premier League's most explosive transition players. When games open up, very few players can match his ability to carry the ball through midfield, attack space and create moments of chaos. Add in his long-range shooting and creative passing, and it's easy to understand why Chelsea are interested. But signing Rogers isn't just about adding another talented attacker. It's about deciding what Chelsea want to be. Rogers thrives in fast, vertical football where he has space to drive at defenders. Chelsea, under Xabi Alonso, are expected to control games through possession. Bridging those two ideas may require significant tactical tweaks, potentially fixing Cole Palmer centrally and building the attack around Rogers' strengths. There are trade-offs too. Rogers is still developing defensively and isn't as comfortable breaking down deep, compact blocks as he is attacking open space. The challenge for Chelsea would be unlocking his best qualities without sacrificing their overall structure. At a reported £117m, the Telstar Transfer Index places the move alongside some of football's biggest transfers once adjusted for football inflation. Chelsea fans, should the system adapt to Morgan Rogers... or should Morgan Rogers adapt to Chelsea? 👀🔵 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

WHY Yan Diomande Could Finally Balance Real Madrid's Attack... For years, Real Madrid's attack has leaned heavily towards the left. With Vinícius Júnior and Kylian Mbappé both gravitating into similar areas, the right flank has often lacked a natural outlet capable of stretching the pitch and creating consistent one-versus-one situations. That's exactly what Yan Diomande could change. He's an explosive dribbler who thrives in isolation, covers huge distances without the ball and has the work rate José Mourinho demands from his wide players. More importantly, he gives Madrid something they've been missing: genuine width on the right. But Diomande is more than just an athlete. He constantly scans for runners, looks to play forward and has the imagination to create chances from seemingly impossible situations. The execution will improve with experience, but the vision is already there. At a reported fee north of €100m, the expectations will be enormous. Yet through the Telstar Transfer Index, which adjusts historic transfer fees for football inflation, the investment looks far more in line with other extremely talented young wingers of the modern era. If Mourinho can develop Diomande's raw talent while giving Madrid the balance they've lacked for years, this could be one of the most important signings of the summer. Madrid fans, is Yan Diomande the missing piece in your attack? 👀⚪ 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

WHY Marco Palestra Could Be Perfect For Xabi Alonso… Chelsea’s latest signing might not be the headline-grabber, but tactically it makes a lot of sense. Marco Palestra looks tailor-made for the demands of modern wing-back play. He’s explosive, two-footed, loves carrying the ball forward and consistently turns his dribbles into productive actions rather than empty touches. That versatility could be incredibly valuable under Xabi Alonso. Whether it’s right wing-back, left wing-back or even a more advanced role in a lopsided system, Palestra has the athletic profile to become a genuine weapon in possession. But there are still questions to answer. His defensive activity is relatively low, his 1v1 defending needs work, and Chelsea’s recent history of signing young talents shows that development pathways matter just as much as potential. The challenge will be giving him the right environment to turn that talent into top-level production. And when you compare the fee through the Telstar Transfer Index, it starts to look less like an overpay and more like a calculated bet on upside. Chelsea fans, where do you see Palestra fitting into Alonso’s system? 👀🔵 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

🚨Pep Guardiola on Manchester United’s new midfield of Youri Tielemans and Bruno Fernandes: Reporter🗣️: “Pep, Manchester United have added Youri Tielemans to play alongside Bruno Fernandes. You’ve faced both players many times,what do you make of that combination?” Pep Guardiola🗣️: “It’s a clever signing, honestly. Tielemans is a proper footballer. He sees the game early, keeps the ball under pressure, and he never panics. I always liked that about him. Bruno is different, pure chaos in the best way. Always looking forward, always trying to create. Put those two together and suddenly you have control and invention in the same midfield. One gives you the platform, the other gives you the magic.They are not the same type of player, and that is why it can work so well. Carrick will have solutions. If they find the right balance around them, that partnership can hurt a lot of teams this season. We will have to be very careful when we face them.”

🚨Fabrizio Romano on Manchester United’s midfield targets Elliot Anderson and Mateus Fernandes: 🗣️ “Manchester United do not currently value Mateus Fernandes at the £80 million figure being quoted. That is the asking price set by West Ham, but internally United’s valuation is considerably lower. The club appreciates the player and believes he has a very bright future, but there is a feeling that the current price does not reflect his level of experience or achievements so far. Michael Carrick is understood to be a strong admirer of Elliot Anderson. The view from the football department is that Anderson is already more proven at Premier League level and would require less adaptation. For that reason, there is a growing argument inside the club that if a significant fee is to be spent on a midfielder, it should be on a player who is already demonstrating consistency at the highest level. Mateus Fernandes remains on the shortlist and is highly regarded. Manchester United see him as a talented young player with excellent potential and strong technical qualities. However, as things stand, Elliot Anderson is higher on the midfield target list and is viewed as one of the priority options for the summer window. The situation remains open, but United are not expected to pay £80 million for Fernandes under the current conditions.” {Fabrizio Romano }

WHY Bruno Guimarães Could Finally Unlock Arsenal’s Right-Hand Side… Arsenal have spent years relying on Bukayo Saka to provide almost everything on the right. Martin Ødegaard often drops deeper to help progress the ball, while Saka is left carrying the creative burden in the final third. Bruno Guimarães could completely change that dynamic. At Newcastle, Bruno has shown he can contribute across every phase. He can receive under pressure, move possession forward and compete aggressively in ground duels, but his biggest value now comes closer to goal. His movement into dangerous areas, ability to thread passes through defensive lines and willingness to get forward could give Arsenal the right-sided number eight they have been missing. The role could mirror what Granit Xhaka offered from the left during the 2022/23 season. Bruno would provide additional support for Saka, occupy defenders and potentially create more space for Arsenal’s most dangerous attacker. There are still questions. Can Arsenal protect him aerially? And would his lack of explosive athleticism become a problem when defending large spaces? With Declan Rice or Martín Zubimendi behind him, those weaknesses could be managed. Arsenal fans, could Bruno Guimarães be the midfielder who finally frees Bukayo Saka? 👀🔴⚪ 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough

🚨David Ornstein on Manchester United’s position regarding Marcus Rashford and Mateus Fernandes: 🗣️ “Manchester United’s stance on Marcus Rashford remains unchanged. The club is open to listening to offers and there is a growing feeling internally that a permanent separation would be the best outcome for all parties. While Rashford remains a player of significant quality, United’s focus is on building a new project and reshaping the squad. Regarding Mateus Fernandes, Manchester United appreciate the player’s talent and potential. However, the club does not currently believe the reported valuation represents good value in the market. United’s recruitment team views Fernandes as a promising midfielder with a bright future, but there is caution about committing such a substantial fee. If West Ham fail to lower their asking price, Manchester United are prepared to move on and pursue alternative targets. The club has a number of midfielders on its shortlist and does not intend to become involved in a prolonged transfer saga. Among the names being considered are Sandro Tonali, Carlos Baleba, Elliot Anderson, Ederson and Aurélien Tchouaméni. United believe those players offer different qualities but are all capable of strengthening the midfield immediately. The priority remains signing a midfielder who can bring athleticism, control, defensive security and leadership to the team. As things stand, Fernandes remains admired, but Manchester United will not hesitate to explore other options if they feel the financial demands do not align with the player’s current market value.” {Sky News }

🚨 Chelsea's interest in John Stones says a lot about the type of game Xabi Alonso plans to play and the type of players he wants... more than people realise. This isn't just about signing an experienced centre-back. It's about signing a defender who can completely transform the first phase of build-up. At his best, John Stones isn't just a centre-back. He's a midfielder in disguise. He steps into midfield effortlessly, breaks opposition pressing lines with his passing, creates overloads and allows his team to dominate possession without sacrificing defensive stability. That's exactly what made Pep Guardiola's Manchester City so difficult to press. Now imagine that in Xabi Alonso's system. Xabi doesn't just want defenders who can defend. He wants players comfortable receiving the ball under pressure, carrying it forward and dictating the tempo from deep. John Stones has done that for years at the highest level. His ability to drift into midfield also gives Chelsea tactical flexibility. The shape can change from a back three to a back four or even a box midfield within seconds without making a substitution. That makes pressing Chelsea far more complicated. It also explains why Xabi appears to be targeting technically gifted defenders rather than traditional stoppers. Yes, Stones has struggled with injuries in recent years, so that's a genuine concern. But from a tactical perspective, the interest makes perfect sense because it reflects the identity Xabi wants this Chelsea side to have: calm in possession, dominant in build-up and intelligent enough to control games with the ball. #CFC #ChelseaChampions #ChelseaFC

Yes, Stones has struggled with injuries in recent years, so that's a genuine concern. But from a tactical perspective, the interest makes perfect sense because it reflects the identity Xabi wants this Chelsea side to have: calm in possession, dominant in build-up and intelligent enough to control games with the ball. #CFC #ChelseaChampions #ChelseaFC

🚨Fabrizio Romano on Manchester United’s pursuit of Mateus Fernandes: 🗣️ “I can confirm that after several rounds of discussions, Manchester United have submitted an opening proposal for Mateus Fernandes worth around £40 million plus add-ons. At this stage, West Ham are reluctant to accept the offer as they value the player significantly higher and believe his long-term potential justifies a larger fee. Negotiations remain ongoing, but there is currently a gap between the two clubs’ valuations. Manchester United appreciate Fernandes’ profile and see him as a young midfielder capable of developing into an important player in the coming years. However, the club is also aware of other opportunities in the market and will not allow negotiations to drag on indefinitely. Carlos Baleba, Sandro Tonali, Elliot Anderson and Ederson remain among the midfield names being monitored internally. United’s recruitment team has spent months assessing different profiles in order to strengthen the centre of the pitch. The club’s priority is to secure a young midfielder who can contribute immediately while also becoming a key part of the long-term project. Only after that position is addressed will Manchester United fully accelerate plans in other areas of the squad. Several defensive and attacking targets continue to be evaluated, but midfield remains the primary focus for now. The coming weeks will be important in determining whether a compromise can be reached with West Ham or whether Manchester United decide to move on to alternative targets.” {Fabrizio Romano }

🚨 Mikel Arteta on Declan Rice and Bruno Guimarães’ midfield pivot at Arsenal: 🗣️ “The idea is to give the team more control without losing the aggression we need in midfield. Declan gives us incredible athleticism, power and the ability to cover large spaces. He can protect the back line, win duels and also drive the team forward. “Bruno gives us something different. He has the personality to receive the ball under pressure, play through difficult situations and control the rhythm of the game. His intelligence allows him to know when to accelerate and when to slow things down. “When you put those qualities together, you have a midfield that can dominate in different ways. They can win the ball, control possession, protect the defence and give our attacking players the freedom to stay higher. “The most important thing is their understanding. They cannot simply play next to each other; they have to move together, cover for each other and recognise the moments when one of them needs to step forward. “If we get that balance right, Rice and Bruno can give Arsenal one of the strongest midfield pivots in the Premier League.”

WHY Ibrahim Mbaye Could Become Liverpool's Next Pressing Monster... Liverpool's search for explosive wingers isn't just about replacing Mohamed Salah. It's about building a frontline capable of thriving under Andoni Iraola. Ibrahim Mbaye fits that vision perfectly. He's relentless in and out of possession, attacks defenders with pace, completes a huge volume of dribbles and has the work rate to press aggressively from the front. Those qualities are becoming the blueprint for the modern winger. Tactically, Mbaye has spent most of his time at PSG operating from the right, where his game revolves around stretching the pitch, getting to the byline and delivering dangerous cut-backs rather than constantly cutting inside to shoot. That profile could complement a more goalscoring winger on the opposite flank, giving Liverpool another outlet capable of breaking down stubborn defences while maintaining the intensity Iraola demands. There are still rough edges. His passing isn't yet at an elite creative level, his left foot remains underdeveloped and he doesn't quite have the technical flair to consistently beat defenders in the toughest one-versus-one situations. But at just 18, that's exactly why Liverpool could see an upside. The reported £30–45m fee might look ambitious, but the Telstar Transfer Index places Mbaye alongside some of football's biggest bets on teenage wingers, including Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo. Liverpool fans, how much of an impact can Mbaye make at Anfield? 👀🔴 📹Samson Kalnińş Brough CC: This Is Anfield Gradient Sports

🚨PAUL SCHOLES ON ARSENAL’S MIDFIELD: “THEY SHOULD HAVE SIGNED TIELEMANS!” 🗣️ Paul Scholes: “If Arsenal were serious about retaining the Premier League title and finally making a real push to win the Champions League, I honestly believe they should have gone for Youri Tielemans instead of Bruno Guimarães. Let me be clear, Bruno is a very good footballer. I have nothing against his quality. But football is not just about signing the biggest name or the player with the biggest reputation. Tielemans would have suited Arsenal’s football more. He is technically gifted, composed under pressure, excellent at progressing the ball, can dictate the tempo, arrive in the box and, most importantly, he understands how to operate in a possession-based system. And then you look at the other factors. He is cheaper, younger, and already has a serious trophy-winning résumé. Arsenal didn’t necessarily need another midfielder who would dominate the headlines, they needed someone who could complement what they already had and make the team more balanced. That’s where I think Arsenal got it wrong. Because if you spend huge money on Bruno Guimarães, you are expecting him to completely transform your midfield. But if Tielemans was available for significantly less, why spend more just because his name carries more weight? Sometimes Arsenal make football unnecessarily complicated. You don’t always need the most expensive player. You need the player who fits your system. And if Arsenal fail to win the Premier League or Champions League, people will eventually look back at decisions like this and ask one question: Did Arsenal sign the right midfielder, or did they simply sign the bigger name? For me, they chose the wrong one. ”

💄🗣Fabrizio Romano on Bruno Fernandes’ future at Manchester United: “Bruno Fernandes is fully committed to the idea of playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo again this season. Despite his strong connection with Manchester United, the midfielder’s priority has shifted toward reuniting with Ronaldo, where he believes the two can still create magic together. His ambition is to compete at the highest level with his former teammate, and he feels that opportunity matches his own goals as a player right now.” “Those close to the situation believe Bruno never viewed the decision as simply about staying at Old Trafford. His focus has been on football, leadership and linking up once more with Ronaldo. He wants to play alongside him this season and be part of a partnership that can deliver major trophies.” “Family also played an important role in the decision. Bruno discussed every aspect of his future with his wife, and together they felt that the chance to play with Ronaldo again was the right choice for both his career and their family. As things stand, his intention is clear: play alongside Ronaldo this season, fight for the biggest trophies and continue performing at the highest level

🚨Gary Neville on why Michael Carrick prefers Aurélien Tchouaméni to Carlos Baleba: “I was speaking to someone close to Michael Carrick recently, and I asked him, ‘Why does Michael seem to prefer Tchouaméni over someone like Baleba?’ He didn’t hesitate. He said, ‘It’s not because Baleba isn’t a top player. It’s because Tchouaméni already understands what it takes to control the biggest games in football.’” “I asked him to explain, and he said, ‘When you’re trying to build a team capable of winning the Premier League and the Champions League, you need midfielders who bring calmness as well as quality. Tchouaméni knows when to speed the game up, when to slow it down, when to break up attacks and when to play that first pass through the lines. Those are things that only come from playing at the highest level year after year.’” “That’s when it made sense to me. Carrick isn’t only looking at talent—he’s looking at reliability. Baleba has enormous potential and could become one of the best midfielders in Europe, but Tchouaméni gives you certainty today. If your ambition is to compete for the biggest trophies immediately, you understand why Carrick would lean towards a player who has already proven himself on the biggest stage.”

Day one of Roberto De Zerbi at Tottenham Hotspur is in the books, and a couple of small moments already say a lot about how meticulous he is. No matter how minor or major the situation, he coaches what the game presents. The first example came when he approached Dominic Solanke. During a small sided game, Solanke was using constant movement, checking runs and changing direction to create space. When play paused, De Zerbi stepped in to explain that in tight areas, locking/shielding the defender directly can actually create more space surrounding him to receive, without needing movement. It sounds simple, but if it needs coaching, he addresses it immediately and with intent. The moments of when to move vs when to lock on! The second moment highlighted his well known focus on tempo. He urged calm from defenders when they had an overload, encouraging them to slow things down just enough to ensure accurate distribution. That patience also allows the structure ahead of the ball to take shape and for movement to develop, leading to more controlled and progressive possession. When the moment is right tempo speeds up to progress the play! The detail stands out. If it's detail and energy Tottenham wanted, Roberto De Zerbi will 100% bring that.
