Even though it was just an ordinary match, the defeat suffered by Al Nassr had a real impact in that Al Hilal was still a stronger team than Al Nassr.
Regarding Al Hilal and Al Nassr statistics, the Al Nassr squad is superior to Al Ahli in several aspects. Starting from shot statistics, defense, duels, passes to ball possession.

The results of this match are a benchmark that Al Nassr's front line, led by Ronaldo, still has many shortcomings that need to be improved.
Al Nassr's player rating does not reach 7, on average they only get a number below 7.
Ronaldo, who got enough rest time because he didn't play when Al Nassr beat Inter Miami, also didn't get a good rating in this match.
A match like that is not just an ordinary one even though it's just a friendly match, yes because of the rivalry between both teams. These are the two strongest team in the league currently and when they meet eachother the match always tend to be very tough, I'm pretty aware Al-Hilal are the hosting team and have more opportunities in winning based on their home advantage but I didn't expect a win without any goal from Al-Nassr, they're a strong team and they showed their capacity when they faced Inter Miami so they should be capable of scoring a goal in that game.

 Well Al-Hilal has proved that they're really serious this season, this is the 2nd time they're defeating Al-Nassr after they lost a cup to them. Al-Nassr shouldn't take this defeat likely even though it's just a friendly game, it shows that their are still some loopholes in the team to be amended. Yes they might be resting some players or saying their strength for important fixtures ahead but then loosing 2-0 to their toughest rivals is still something to worry about.

If you can even refer to these two teams, even though PSG only has Mbappe as a big star in their squad. Likewise based on betting exchanges. If referring to Asian Handicap Betting, the odds for this match are with a margin of 0:1. that means, those who bet on PSG must score at least 2 goals against Real Sociedad. although in reality, handicap odds also have several options according to our courage and desires. in Ligue 1, Paris Sain-Germain is the top of the group having scored 48 goals. even though in the group phase in the Champions League, the performance of Luis Enrique's team looked very unstable. but now PSG is starting to experience many developments, especially the pattern that Luis Enrique uses. so it's natural that PSG is superior, especially in the first leg which will be played at the Parc des Princess.

On the other hand, Real Sociedad performed brilliantly in the Champions League group phase with perfect results. however, this time, their opponents were a little more difficult than their opponents in the group phase. In La Liga, Real Sociedad's performance is quite good and is ranked 6th, but that alone is not enough to overthrow Paris Saint-Germain. moreover, based on the odds betting exchange for these two teams, there is quite a big difference..PSG with odds @ 1.63, while Sociedad with @ 5.40. Well, it's natural that PSG is more favored than Real Socidedad in this Champions League round of 16 meeting.
Well PSG might be performing below expectations in the UCL tournament, but if you compare both teams you'll see that they got a more better and expensive club filled with quality players other than Mbappé, they've got a squad capable of being victorious against Sociedad that's not even among the best in their league and barely win trophies. Moreover PSG got a coach that's got experience in the Laliga and should be able to figure out how to beat Sociedad easily.

 Well-motivated doubt Sociedad have been in a good performance from they group stage, they might be the mediocre team among both but they shouldn't be estimated cause we've seen them perform very brilliant against bigger teams in other stages of the tournament and if PSG doesn't not step up their UCL performance we could see that repeat again cause Real Sociedad are not a club to be underestimated.

Jurgen Klopp looking for a replacement for Mohammed Salah? I don't think so, though they will scout good players that will be better in handing the roles of these key players. By the way, where are your proofs regarding Mohammed Salah moving to Saudi Arabia? He's not given any greenlights to the pending gigantic offers from SPL clubs currently, he's critically injured due his country calling him for AFCOn competition which they ended up been eliminated at early phase. The present worry of Mohammed Salah is to focused more on returning back to the main squad because they need him at crucial scenario. Watching Liverpool lost 3-1 to Arsenal means they're absolutely weak against elite teams.
You're right, it not about scouting a replacement, but a very good replacement that could march Salah's standards at the club, Mo is a very talented player and has been one of the pillars of the club for years, he's helped them achieve trophies including winning the UCL against a Barcelona team with Lionel Messi involved. So I think Liverpool shouldn't be in a haste to replace him with just anyone if truly he's leaving the club this summer, if only they got lure the likes of Joao Felix that's would handle that role properly.
 
 Well their are other young talented prospects they could look into, their scouts just need to take their time to figure out the suitable options for that role. However Liverpool are really missing Salah currently, his absence is really felt and I believe if he was present in the match against Arsenal maybe things would had been a little different for them

After the return of Haaland and De Bruyne in the squad, Manchester City haven’t lost any game and are in top form now. They look so strong that they can beat any team they will be playing against now in the premier League. Their return will also strengthen their performance in the champions league and make their chances in the champions league high as they are amongst the favourites of winning the English Premier League and also the European Champions League.
Since last season Haaland and De Bruyne have almost been inseparable and the return of Manchester City's two important players will also increase their chances of winning various titles. Maybe right now Manchester City has quite a tough job because they have to compete with Liverpool and I think this will be a fierce competition between the two teams towards the end of the season.

Anything can still happen for Manchester City and Liverpool, but if Haaland and De Bruyne return it would be the same as ending Liverpool's dream of winning the EPL title this season. In fact, I still remember Jurgen Klopp being very wary of De Bruyne's return and the whole of England was increasingly shaken by his presence in Manchester City, who was a game creator and even a provider of assists for his teammates to score goals.
Both of them together makes the team magical, they're both world class as the season goes they tend to understand eachother better, we've seen how bad it got for Manchester when both were not playing together for a while, and now they’re playing together again, everything is back to normal which is very good for the team. Well City are very strong title contenders and I believe Pep would really work very hard to make that possible.

 Among City and Liverpool, i see City as more favorites to win the race, yes Liverpool has really tried to get this far but I think they’ll likely to drop points and allow City close the gap, well there's no doubt that they've got a squad capable of challenging for the title however their depth is no compared to that of City and they should be hoping more of their key players doesn't sustain anymore injury.

Sporting beat Leiria in the Portuguese Cup game, and as expected from Sporting they scored many goals again. This is a sequence of games in which Sporting has managed to score many goals, at least more than 2 goals they can score easily, with this victory Sporting just needs to wait to see how Benfica and Porto will do to plan the next steps, I say this because I only see Porto and Benfica as the only teams that can beat Sporting in this competition and speaking of Porto, Porto's game against Santa Clara was postponed because the field was not good due to the water there on the field, do not allow the ball to circulate normally. These are things that happen.

But even so, I see Porto winning this game when it resumes, today there is Benfica's game against Vizela, I see Benfica coming out victorious in this game. Vizela is a team that in the last 5 games has conceded a lot of goals and has not beaten any team in the last 4 games, I highly doubt that they will be able to beat Benfica, who in the last 2 games has been a team with a strong attack and has managed to score a lot of goals. , I don't know if Benfica's coach will choose to rotate players since they are in a situation that is not comfortable in the league and need to have all their good players available and there are European league games coming up soon
The Portuguese league have teams with higher impacts in the league games and European contests too. Benfica, Sporting, Porto are most impactful in this regard. Porto are doing well in the league and also have good performance records in the UCL too even though they weren't able to keep up with their good performance in their last league game which wasn't so acceptable. Same scenerio applies for Benfica and Sporting who's got their own record in the European cups too. Benfica have been doing well at securing the three points in most of their games with good goal margins. It only shows how set they are for the task put before them. Although a lesser performance isn't expected from them.

 The league seems less competitive though as there are still weeks left and just these 3 teams are trying to make good wave in the league. Over the years it's still these three that have been the most talked about because of the feats they've attained. One would be so sure to bet on these teams and their ability to keep progressing in points in their league games.

Yes, in that match the only goal scored was Alex Berenguer's penalty kick in the 25th minute against Atletico Madrid. So when the referee blew the long whistle for the second half, Atletico Madrid had not been able to equalize and had to accept defeat in the first leg against Bilbao.

However, in my opinion, in this match the Atletico Madrid players played quite well. The reason is, Atletico Madrid players created many opportunities in the first half and also in the second half. But unfortunately, none of these opportunities resulted in a goal. Maybe in this first leg Atletico Madrid could be said to be unlucky even though they were playing at home. Because if you look at the performance of the two teams, in my opinion Atletico Madrid is superior to Bilbao. However, one mistake resulted in Bilbao being awarded a penalty kick, which turned out to be Bilbao's patented goal.

However, in the second leg, I am very optimistic that Atletico Madrid will definitely be able to beat Bilbao. The reason is that in the second leg, Atletico Madrid will definitely correct the mistakes made in the first leg and will definitely maximize the opportunities that exist. Even though in the second leg Bilbao will play at home, and will be calmer because they are already 1 goal ahead, this is not a big guarantee that Bilbao can win the match. So in my personal opinion, Atletico Madrid can definitely beat Bilbao in the second leg and in essence can reach the Copa Del Rey final.

And regarding the competition between Sociedad and Mallorca, I also agree that Sociedad is a strong candidate who can advance to the Copa Del Rey final.
In a few recent games, Bilbao have been able to show strength and charisma to winning games. They've safely been tagged underrated and not really focused on but looking deep, they're making waves. Even their betting odds would speak for them. They are a team practically growing into a La Liga threat club.
They've had competitive games and ensured they kept up their pace making the result of the game be either to their favour or a fair draw.

 Girona and Vallecano are a testament of the fact. It's good how Spanish teams are starting to face the uprising of the beat and live through letting just 3 teams be the talk about of the league. Currently the likes of Girona,  Real Sociedad too and definitely Bilbao are outshining in their deeds and it's amazing to watch how football has become even more interesting this season in the Spanish league.

The victory achieved by Al Ittihad was an extraordinary victory, why not? because Al Taee was defeated at home by the Al Ittihad Team with a landslide victory of 3-0 without any reply. In my opinion, Al Ittihad played very well and neatly because in the first half alone they were able to score 2 goals without reply and with this victory of course the Al Ittihad players took advantage of their more aggressive attitude and put pressure on the Al Taee squad. defense. However, unlike the Al Taee players, Al Ittihad scored 2 goals in the first half, making the Al Taee players' performance decline and they lacked confidence so they were unable to score a goal back for Al Ittihad in the first half.

Yes, I also thought about why Karim Banzema was not used or was on the bench, whether he was training specifically to support Al Ittihad in the next match. It could be that this is coach Gallardo's plan or strategy not to play Karim Benzema.
Al-Ittihad are back to winning ways and you could see that they play better than before. The whole team took this match very seriously and maintained utmost pressure in the Al Taee defense. Yes this pressure made the Al Taee players lose balance while on the pitch especially after they were 2-0 down. One noticeable absentee was Benzema and we thought that could be the coach tactics to probably bring this hunger from his young team

 Yes and that tactics has worked as we can see how demanding the Al-Ittihad players were and how they applied necessary amount of pressure to get the win and it was  deserved. This win will be a big boost for them while going forward I believe, they need it so bad to boost them in the standings.

because it seems to me that they haven't thought about having a strong team capable of winning the European champions league. Barcelona management should learn lessons from real madrid who have always made good signings but had some bad luck in signing good players but when they arrived at real madrid they were unable to do their best, but real madrid didn't stand still , they rushed to sign other good young players, and today, real madrid is a very strong team in the league and has a greater chance of becoming la liga champions, yet real madrid is looking at good players on the market, especially mbappe, This is because Real Madrid is a team of visionary managers

They know how to look to the future, they know that having Mbappe in the team would be a big step towards winning the European Champions League, while Barcelona seem to be a disorganized team who don't know what direction they should take yet. Since Messi and so many good players from Messi's time left the team, Barcelona has become a directionless team. In any case, we will see how far Barcelona has managed to reach, in June Xavi is leaving the team, we will see which coach will take the risk of accepting to be Barcelona's coach, because it will be a very tiring type of work.
Barcelona team are not just suffering from wrong decisions of the signings to make but they’re also suffering from the financial rule that’s on their neck. They’ve made some erroneous spendings in the past that’s putting them under watch. They should take cue from the Real Madrid side on how they make signings and when it doesn’t work for them they don’t relent, rather they go for a fresh young blood that’ll be able to last them a while. Not just to last them but also go productive and that’s one reason why they seem to be going all out for  Kylian.

 Kylian in that Madrid team is a full assurance of the UCL for them and this is one signing style that Barcelona will need to learn if they want to be considered as a top team in Europe because styles like this makes the players very productive. Mbappe's addition to Madrid would mean a lot to the team, he's a world class player which would be very much beneficial to them.
1069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 08, 2024, 08:29:17 PM
This week looks very exciting because apart from the Roma vs Inter match, there is also a big match that we should not miss and this time Milan will face Napoli at the San Siro. In general, it is clear that Milan will win, especially since they are still one of the teams that has been consistent so far and have not lost in the last 5 matches. Meanwhile, Napoli, which we know is very bad this season, has only won 2 wins in the last 5 matches.

It's really sad to see that Napoli's performance has dropped drastically from expectations and they are currently in 7th position in the standings. Apart from that, if we look at the H2H for both teams the results are very varied from wins to defeats and it is possible that the results will still be quite difficult to predict. What is clear is that the last meeting between the two ended in a draw and it is possible that with the current situation the result would still be the same. Milan is still in a safe position and no team is bothering them, but Napoli really need full points if they want to overtake Bologna. Maybe betting over 2.5 goals is still a safe option for a fierce match like this.
This weekend will be a big one especially in the Serie A as we’ll be having both Milan teams playing at home with top teams. Inter Milan are going to be getting victory in their match against Roma and I’m confident of that. Milan vs Napoli, I think will be one tough one though but I’m still putting all my hopes on Milan to win because Napoli haven’t been at their best this season. Milan are a very good team currently and they’re not doing bad especially in their past few matches.

 For betting in this match, I think a safe bet will be on Inter Milan to win and 2 goals above scored, then maybe Milan can also have about 3 goals in that match and double chancing on them isn’t going to be much a risk, well I also feel a goal goal option might be possible as well, since Napoli are capable of pulling a threat an find the back of the net as well.
1070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: February 08, 2024, 08:20:42 PM

for me, Leverkusen does not have a safe position because it continues to be chased by Bayern Munich, which has never shifted its position, but this should be a big question, why hasn't Bayern Munich shifted Leverkusen? meanwhile, Bayern Munich could have replaced Leverkusen since that time because Munich performance was very strong, but it seemed as if Munich was giving Leverkusen a chance and would eventually be shifted towards the end of the season.
what I learned from the journey of these two teams is that Leverkusen is always consistent without being defeated but Munich is always chasing points Leverkusen, but when they had the opportunity to overtake Leverkusen, Munich actually lost against a weak team and after that, when Leverkusen gave them a big point difference, Munich was surprisingly able to continue chasing him with an always narrow point difference.

I'm afraid this is a strategy used Bayern Munich to embarrass a popular team like that time when Dortmund was knocked out in the last match of last season and this could happen if Leverkusen and Bayern Munich don't have a big difference in points. I'm sure Dortmund bad luck will be repeated Leverkusen in the season.
on the one hand, being at the top of the standings but always under pressure makes players have to work hard which results in fatigue towards the end of the season and performance will decline.
Leverkusen are currently still on tope the league but they are chased so dearly by Bayern Munich. Bayern seem not to look tired and are dearly chasing Leverkusen in the league. This is one fun thing about Leagues in Europe. Bayern are traditional winners of this league and know how to go about this league. Bayern Munich though faltered at some points and were given wide gap range but also Leverkusen fell under the pressure and also dropped points which has now given Bayern a glimpse of hope.

 Now i think the Champion of the league will be taken to the very last day before it is decided on as both team are doing pretty well. I would really love to see Leverkusen win this league and for that to happen, they’ve got to keep up the determination level and try to avoid playing under pressure as it could result to unnecessary mistakes.

Yes, De Rossi has indeed proven to everyone that he is not a bad coach, that's why Roma appointed him as coach because Roma saw that this coach had better potential than Jose Mourinho and currently De Rossi has given positive results since his debut. and now Roma has moved up to a better ranking thanks to its winning streak.

However, this is still an initial challenge for De Rossi because he will face quite difficult matches in the next 2 matches, namely against Inter Milan, who is currently at the top of the standings, and against Feyenoord, a club that has been relegated from the Champions League. Talking about the domestic league, it looks like Inter Milan is still superior in this match and will probably beat Roma.

So, if we talk about the European league, it seems that Roma still has a chance because in the last few matches between these two clubs, Roma dominated the victory, but yes, that was when they were still coached by Jose Mourinho, but this time Roma has a different coach. Let's see if De Rossi can overcome this challenge in the next 2 matches Wink
De Rossi has been so great in the world of football as he’s gotten his impact made by getting victory in his first 2 matches in the league. Yes victory that were resounding and they took Roma to a better position on the log. Now he’s got 2 tougher tests coming up both domestically and in the UEL and they’re both of tough Opponents, Inter Milan and Feynoord respectively. Inter Milan will sure have the day in this one as they still prove to be one very strong team of the league.

 Feynoord, I think it’ll be One big battle as Roma could put their solace on the victories they had while Jose was still in charge. But I think this will be pretty difficult especially as De Rossi doesn’t have much experience like that in European competitions. Well I won't conclude yet, cause you never can tell if De Rossi is cooking a suprise for everyone, well let's see how it goes.

RB Leipzig and Copenhagen will find it hard to beat their opponents in their game, but it will be an achievement for them since they have tried and struggled to make it to the round of 16 in the championship league. Just as you mentioned, any team that made it so far to the round of 16 deserves to be appreciated, even though they end up losing and not qualifying for the quarterfinals, but they struggled to be in the round of 16. Which is also not an easy task.

It would even be a big disgrace for Manchester City if they tried to make a mistake to even go on a draw with Copenhagen, because it has happened before in the Europa League when their game ended at a score of 2-2. and also in the Champions League when the score ended in 0-0, but for Real Madrid and RB Leipzig, they just met in two games so far, and Real Madrid won one while RB Leipzig got the luck to win the other one, so I have more faith in Real Madrid winning their game against RB Leipzig than that of Manchester City against Copenhagen.
Getting to the Round of 16 of the UCL is a big achievement and we must commend clubs who attained this feat. Yes Liepzig and Copenhagen both have attained these feats and now having difficult fixture in this round. Well Real Madrid will nor be so worried with Liepzig as I can fully bank on Real to be able to eliminate Liepzig in this stage of the competition. Yea, Real have a more better and fierce squad that’ll be able to compete.

 ÞManchester City too would be able to take on Copenhagen in both legs and I’m confident of this. These 2 clubs are what most football fans look up to see them in the final as they’re the only teams that are determined and play with all vigor, however I think  Manchester City are going to come out victorious in that game cause they're more better than Copenhagen in terms of Squad depth and form.
1073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2023 on: February 08, 2024, 07:16:49 PM

You are right, they have a very strong team and many players from the Nigerian squad are star players from strong European teams so they have the advantage to actually win in the final and also considering that they played against Ivory Coast in the group stage and won them 1-0 it will give them more confidence to play better against them in the final.

We can say all this in our mind but it wouldn’t mean Nigeria will win that day, it will depend on their performance and how highly spirited they play on Sunday. Ivory Coast would not want what happened in the group stage should happen again they will not want to lose to Nigeria again and also they would not want to disappoint their fans by losing in the final on their home soil after making their way to the final.

So far Nigeria have been unbeaten in the tournament and i hope they can end the tournament unbeaten to lift the trophy. As a Nigerian i hope they win in the final and bring home the trophy.
This final is going to be one that will be having massive views as this is one very big final that will be having majority of football fans watching. Yes Super Eagles have gotten victory already in the group stages and getting victory in this stage could be quite easy. The confidence they’ve built over time is one very good one and currently they seem to be the better team of the two. I have high hopes on this Nigeria side to get victory at the AFCON and get the trophy. They’ve a more organized sauad than this Ivory Coast side.

 Nigeria still remains unbeaten and are favorites to win this trophy, so I’m putting all hopes on them to be able to defeat Ivory Coast side in the finals. Yes and that’s quite possible because they’re a strong determined side who’re gunning for victory. But that doesn't mean Ivory Coast are an easy nut to crack, let's not forget they beat Dr Congo that's been in a very good form in this tournament.

In addition, even there was also a news reported that if chelsea players were regretting their mistakes to join in the club with long term contract.

It's not only fans were also feeling upset but the players too. Even enzo's agent has been also starting to talk about the potential of his client to leave from the club. Im feeling so damn bad with this club. Chelsea is always consistently making a lot of blunders any game. This club is always performing so poorly like there was no bounding on it.
The players were playing individually even some were so stubborn and it's also destroying the gameplay from the club. Pochettino keep make more excuses and this is also affecting the performance from chelsea too.

Chelsea has been trying so hard to make a better set up but it was always failed caused by it has the most stupidest coach who was always rotating the players in any game. He was also putting some players not in their actual positions too.
It was very bad for chelsea caused by a lot of players may be leaving from there if there will be lucrative offer from different team. The won against aston villa can at least show us a little be improvement happened to the club but this club is still having pathethic performance in EPL.
Well it seems the fans are tired already and are mow giving up on this beautiful club. This club has gone so shitty since Todd took over and this is what’s making everyone tired. Even most players are now getting so sad and are trying to get their way out of the club. The players don’t want to be associated with these mess and that’s why they want to leave. Well the club needs a real rehabilitation and that should be done by an experienced coach.

 Poch has not done any change to this squad as his stats says Potter still remains better than him and this is a big worry as he was brought in to help in the rebuilding process but rather it seems the whole process is getting destroyed the more. These players will need a very young experienced coach to get them back to Glory days no matter how long it takes them as they’re still a young side that can attain success at any level.
1075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 08, 2024, 06:45:18 PM

Todd doesn't understand that at all. I have been saying this since he took over at Chelsea. He thinks getting players is all it takes. He's just spending money, buying every available players and youngster, but it's obvious that strategy is not working.

What he should have done is get board members that know what they're doing. Get the right sporting directors and let them put their heads together and hire a good coach. A coach that can handle a rebuilding project. That coach should be able to pick the players he wants the club to sign and the clubs do whatever they can to sign the coach's choice. The coach will choose players who can work with him, and players who understand his style. This should have been the first step for Chelsea. Instead, they just went ahead and bought a player for a coach that hoat has not proved himself at the top level.

To make everything worse they hired Lampard after sacking Potter and they hired Pochettino. These are decisions that show they don't know what they're doing up there.
What Chelsea needs now is a proper rebuild. They should forget about trophies, they should go back to the drawing board and start from the beginning. Right every wrong that they have made and that starts with getting the right people for each job.
Chelsea under Todd is now becoming one hell of an era especially as he believes money could do the magic. Winning in game of football is progressively and not magical. Yes, money is important but what’s priority is building from the scratch, he’s made some irrational decisions that’s now making the club in general suffer and the fans aren’t happy. Yes creating a new board who’ll be able to work and deliver would have been key.

 Rather he’s making the decisions and changes himself and he has little knowledge about football, that’s why most of his decisions now are being countered back by opposing teams. Todd should try as much to go back to the drawing board and let this team focus by getting a very experienced coach and not a coach out of pity. These boys are young and an experienced coach will help them maximize full potential to win the trophies for the club.

I am hopeful for the Ajax to have third spot into league table until end of this season because now every week they are improving their performance and their results are also allowing them to have better chance for this with in last five matches AZ Alkmaar having 3 points and Ajax 11 which cut the deficit and now both are on level Twente having 6 points difference which is surely interesting but if Ajax are able to give their 100% then surely things could be favourable for them, and they will be achieved but how Twente will perform this is also important.

Ajax vs PSV were interesting and both give their best but in second half I believe Ajax were better even they fail to take any advantage, but things are going good for them and their future until end because they are not back in business.
Ajax have not been at their best performances but they've definitely been winning games and have been consistent to it. Definitely a coach has his own impact in a team, once the head is faulty, there'll always be loopholes. It means a lot for a team to get victorious consecutively in a row and for Ajax, that's caused a gradual improvement regardless not doubting that they still have to put in more work.

 They've got players no doubt but the squad needs to be better, Ajax is a team better than a narrow win, at the moment though, finding the right player who's top and ready in all areas to give that competitive capacity in both the domestic league and the European leagues will be hard. Their inconsistency is unhealthy and they just have to find a way to stop the losses from occuring through a narrow means. There's still a bit of time for their errors to be reshaped and corrected too.

Since news emerged that Benzema would leave Al Ittihad, at that time I thought the news was definitely not true. Then in the end my assessment turned out to be correct. The reason is that in one of the news media, Benzema once said that all this news was just lies. So after I read the news, I became even more convinced that Benzema would definitely stay at Al Ittihad. Although from the start of the season until now Benzema's performance at Al Ittihad has not been optimal. But that doesn't mean Benzema will just give up and move to another club. Therefore, Benzema will definitely fight hard to be able to show his best performance at Al Ittihad for the remainder of this season.

So when saw that Benzema had returned to training with his teammates at Al Ittihad, all the fake news had been clearly proven to be lies. Therefore, now Al Ittihad fans and also Benzema fans are definitely more relieved by this. Even though in the Al Ittihad versus Al Tae match, Benzema has not yet played. But I'm sure that in the next match, Benzema will definitely play again. Because in the next match Al Ittihad will compete in the Asian Champions League (ACL) against Navbahor. So in this match Benzema's abilities will definitely be needed, therefore it is very likely that Benzema will return as the main starter for Al Ittihad.
The switch to any club in some situations is a decision to be made by the player. Benzema has had quite an eventful time with Real Madrid. He impacted the team in his own special level of performance. Definitely he's got to get for himself widespread experience. And I believe a move away from the Saudi side by summer is still very possible, maybe to a club in the EPL or other European leagues.

 In this case, he's got to consider a number of factors and they are technically a determinant of how effective their new move decision would be for them. An EPL club move won't be a bad option for Benzema to pick even though the league is very much competitive, adding that he's advancing gradually in age and so he's got a few impacts that he can make before retirement. But his experience would add alot to any club he decides next.

Injury is the best thing that can ruin a player's career; we have seen a lot of players fail to reach their potential due to injuries, and Dembele is one of them. Before his injury, he was one of Dortmund's greatest players, and opponents used to be afraid of him during games. However, because of his injury, his performance changed, even though he could still perform well and even dribble quickly enough to score a goal when he moved to Barcelona. Barcelona also liked Dembele and wanted him to be one of their future players, but he chose to leave Barcelona in order to join PSG.

I didn't see Dembele's fault because he is a player with big dreams and wants to win as many trophies as possible, but this season his own in PSG is not that good in my opinion because since he joined PSG he has not scored more than three goals. I believe that Dembele left Barcelona because Barcelona could not give him what he wanted. You will see that Barcelona fans don't like him again as a result of Dembele's departure.
Injury is one occurrence that affects the player and his team squarely. It occurs as a result of so many conditions that the players generally have to pass through. Although, there's what they call injury prone and non-injury prone players. Not all players experience injuries as frequent as some players while some players are unlucky to just be caught in the web and this would keep them out of the pitch for a long while. Unending stress is a very big cause of injuries, no rest, no breaks, always active on the pitch playing and earning.

 Now there are domestic games and international games too, but it tends to be that there are a whole lot of international games and this games as they come do not give the players time to rest because after each one, they'll still have to travel for the next contest. All these affects the physical system of the players and the ones that are not too strong to combat the stress are then prone to injuries. It's sad that some teams would have to endure the injury situation and the players would have to take some time to regain their health and stamina to play again.

we'll see how Mbappe determines his future because Mbappe is still a mystery that is difficult to predict and if Mbappe is thinking about his career, he will definitely leave PSG and join a team that can provide more guarantees for winning the UCL title in the future, but if in the future Mbappe If he has to stay at PSG, I'm very sure that he doesn't think about his career but only thinks about a big salary.
but for a player who has high quality talent, he should not only think about a big salary when he is young, he should choose to get a career and be able to get a prestigious title to increase his market value in the future, except when he is a little older, Mbappe can think about a big salary, but for now I prefer if he goes to Real Madrid or an EPL team.

what I am currently thinking is whether there will be new problems or drama like last season when Real Madrid tried to get Mbappe and I think PSG has great wealth and could keep Mbappe with a bigger salary offer but as long as his contract is up Mbappe has the power to deciding where he will go and staying at PSG is the same as throwing away his youth career without any development and will not have more experience in the future.
It's a player's decision if he wants to stay in a club or leave, also it depends on his contract signed with the team as well as the teams decision to either keep him or let him go. In PSG, Mbappe is one key man that they don't want to give off yet. Even though his contract is set to expire by summer, they still know he's advantageous and would want to keep him.

 For Mbappe, his stay in the team beyond and after the expiration of the contract seems to be dependent on his intentions as well as the teams performance in the long run. Good thing for him that Madrid may not really be interested in him yet until summer so he's got to be a bit patient till then, then maybe, he'd be willing to join the Spanish side. Even though Liverpool were questing for him as well, i didn't think they were set to afford that amount for him during the January transfer window. Let's just anticipate summer break whilst watching his movement decision unfold.

The only advantage owned by roma to play at home. I don't see that a valid reason other than it to become advantage compared to the intermilan. In my opinion if this is a serious problem that needs to be solved as soon as possible. Rossi needs to think which the most suitable strategy to be implemented against intermilan.
Doing a small mistake will be costing the win streak of roma and three points. Rossi needs to take a wise decision to make sure his club will not be losing against roma but i personally going all in on intermilan right now. It's caused by intermilan looked like a perfect club in all of aspects.
There shall not be a problem to be made between any players in the team. Doing a small blunder will be making roma to lose a chance to get three points from intermilan. Intermilan was very strong even when it must be playing away. I will not be surprised if roma will be losing against intermilan.
it will be a common thing caused by intermilan is still staying at the first place and we do know that how strong intermilan is right now. The club is just even more solid compared to the previous season. Intermilan may be dominating serie a till last game.
Roma overtime have been a good impactful team in the Serie A league, they're a good side and they've got huge task to prove a point and endure that they don't go below commendations too. They're a team that can definitely be compared to the likes of Inter and Juventus. However they'll need financial backings from the board to compete better and become regular top 4 team in the Serie A.

 The coach they have currently is skillful, they may technically be lacking a little bit of player quality but I believe they can make do with what they have. Recent game outcomes haven't been so terrible or bad for them. They're staying in shape and hopefully with time and weeks going by, they'll be able to stay back at their deserved top spots. The season has a couple of games left for Roma to show it's ability. They will try to be relevant in both the Serie A and Europa League too.
