For the football fans, especially those who play sports gambling, In your opinion : what has happeed  last summer in the transfer window and the price explosion of players. We witnessd, and for the first time in history, a transfer cost more than 200 000 000 euro !  That transfer affected  the price even of normal players, like Romelu lukaku who left for Man united for 100 000 000 euro. Do you think all that will have a good or bad result on gambling ?

Why do you think it will have any effect on your gambling? I can understand some teams becoming superpowers because of the money that is being invested and thrown at the players but I dont think it effects us as gamblers at all. Only initially when a team is filled with new players, we might have a hard time figuring out how the team will play together but other than that. I dont see nay problem.

I do not see any relation between the players market and gambling. In the mercato, teams are exchanging players to enhance their effective and to be a better competitatior.
Maybe if we try to relate it to gambling we are going to talk about teams with new players, much more powerful that will make their best to win games. But no relation between gambling and players transfer.

What does the transfer of a player has to do with gambling ?  ::)
The usual matches will continue as they should.You'd be only filliping your cards with the matches involving Lukaku or Man United.The only thing affecting gambling right now are the stuck transactions which are coming as double spend attacks.

Well for gamblers themselves. I don't see any reason why it will affect gambling. It probably can affect the players' performances but it can't be directly connected to gamblers

There is no connection between a player's transfer and the final result of gambling. Modern soccer is a business where a team can reap huge profits when they are able to bring great players into its team. And it has nothing to do directly with gambling results. Maybe you've got a superstition in regard with those player transfers!

I can't understand what's the association of trade of players to the gambling in sports. There's no connection between this two, they are two markets and they are not going to affect the world of sports gambling. Sports betting/gambling depends on the result not with the trade of players.

I think it's otherwise actually. The amount of money in football just shows how popular it is for now.
And sports gambling is related to it (look at the number of teams with bookmakers' logos on shirt, look at the boards during matches).
I think till 2025 online gambling market revenue will be more than 100 bil.

Transfer of players has nothing to do with gambling. You are talking about big players and big amounts which will undoubtedly behave correctly on the field and outside the field. I don't know of a high star player like Cristiano Ronaldo fixing a game while I know in Sweden division 5 or 6 for example games can be fixed easily as no one cares about that division.

The increasing prices for football player transfers will make football even more important and interesting and this is good for online sports betting as it will attrack even more players to bet on their favourites. You can compare this with the increasing price of bitcoin, the higher the price will rise, the more people have interest to buy it.

I think it got no affect on gambling because there are no relation between the gambling and the transfer amount, unless your are gambling about how much the player transfer value, but I doubt any gambling site ever mention this service

I do not see a direct effect on us sports gambler, to be honest if a super team is created gambling sites will just even the odds with handicap. Also having a super team is exciting, just like in the NBA although you expect the Cavs and GSW  on the NBA finals every year you still do not know who would win.

the value of the players always be increase for every season because football not only sport and football has been change became an industry so expensive players is common things in football currently but most of us only bets for the matches only and if there is a team with plenty of expensive players i think the percentages to won the bets is very high if we placed our money to that team even not guarantee but teams with expensive players will increase their strength for every matches

I dont see any connection as to why would it affect on gambling industry, gamblers chooses the team that he/she wants to bet even if players change team they still have some faith on whats left of the team, gamblers doesnt give a S if one person change team or not.

Football is a game of teams and collaboration one man does not make the team for no matter his ability and agility. So, I don't see the market value of one player affecting the team and more so the entire value of whether 200,000,000 does not even go into the pocket of the player neither that is what he will be collecting every week. At some point players will realize that getting to the pitch and playing in front of the several fans spread across the world is more important than the money.

I can't see how transfers would have any impact on gambling it is not like because a transfer was x amount it is going to directly impact on the gambling industry.

You seem to be drunk? Lol its Christmas we understand but drunken posting is bad op. How will the transfers ever effect gambling? As a sports gambler, I don't care how much has that team spend, for me it will matter how their current form is, what's their morale. Say lukaku I know he's having a bad phase and I bet with my friends he won't score and I won handsomely, if your logic is to be applied he's an expensive player but that didn't effect my gambling habits at all.

I do not think so, the very high price of the players is because clubs are willing to do anything to get what they want, so any high price will be issued. But that's just the price, the price of a cheap or expensive player will not give any affect on gambling.

If there is a effect, it could be minimal to absolutely nothing. Of course super teams are established already, and they will be favorites and money will flow but as far as the betting public is concern, this transfers are non of our concern. We all love putting our bets whether they are the favorites or not. It will not change.

Maybe if you could explain your side at to what is on your mind saying how you think it can affect the betting public then we could have made a good discussions. Unfortunately, it doesn't make any sense mate, those transfers has nothing to do with our better pattern.

The transfer market is totally independent on gambling be it sports or whatever and so i don't think the sale of a player in any part of the world is going to affect any bookmaker or something unless they go for prop bets and loss or win.

Unlike you, personally I see that the transfer market is perfectly dependent on gambling. since the transfer market controls the movement of the many players, who are in his role will directly affect the performance of teams, which are at the origin of many bet.  In this way, I hope you see the indirect connection, but solid and perfect. Which allowing the both of factors to affect each other.

Well people are gamble and put their money on whatever has the best players because they have a higher probability of winning. In spite of this i don't see the connection with the value of players with regards to gambling at all, some may be bought with high prices but they dont perform well on the pitch where it matters.

actually there is no significant influence.
when gambling is associated with the high cost of the trasfer exchanges
because sports gamblers sometimes get lucky through every gambling they do.
but sometimes we prefer a team that contains a star player to guarantee victory

There is no direct connection associating gambling with the value of players unless perhaps the gambling houses own a football club or they sponsor a club or lots of clubs which are against FIFA's statutes if we are to critically consider that so for me the two are totally at variance with each other.

Transfer of players to other team will not directly affected to gambling industry but it will affect on the team's performance and sport betting prediction on which team will win the most. If you are confident with your skills on team analysis then it might be give an advantage to you.

Why would it affect gambling?

There is no way that it could affect directly to it, because you are placing bets.

Anyway, i can not understand how is it possible for the club's to pay that incredible amount of money, from where do they get that money?

100 million euros for a single player, sometimes it is not even profitable for some teams.

Such things are absolutely unrelated to Gambling world. Transfer expenses of player just bring players to lime light which increases their expectations to play except this there is no way that these things ignite something in gambling world. Moreover, I think such threads belong to others section it has nothing to do with btc gambling.

i don't know , i might could be wrong but there is an opinion says that some huge transfer helped by the bookies money , yes for example a transfer of neymar that actually should be an impossible thing to happen financially because of large amount of money involved.

but then it is happened , the odds for neymar move to psg was really high btw. this sounds like too far speculation, so .... think again to consider this seriously lol.

How much are people betting on Swedish division 5 or 6 games anyways? I mean this would be an easy way to make a few grand, but anything more than that would come across as very suspicious.

I think fixing games is one of the easiest ways to cheat the system because it's so incredibly hard to know if someone really had inside info or if a game was fixed... to prove that is almost impossible.

I don't think it will affect anything, it may appear that teams spending more money will make the players work much harder to win games but i guess it's just that teams want to show how rich they are added to the fact that getting a valuable player like neymar will create alot of revenue with Shirts selling and more spectators etc.

I don't think so.. There is no proven and I don't see any relation connected to sports and being gambling. Doesn't any affect from one another to sports as a gambling person. Sports is a physical fitness and it is good for health. Gambling is an addiction that comes out your daily doing. So there's no reason to affect.

LOL! That has zero affect on gambling. None.

I guess this increase in fees will definitely affect sport gambling since there is a huge fee for transfers, team will think twice before doing this.  As a result players will be stucked with their team and so the kind of betting will be affected.  Less random result stuff since the factor of the outcome will not change when it comes to player line up.  And that will affect on how or whose team we will choose.  And so on.
