Roma didn't get what it wanted from Mourinho in terms of consistent and good results. They are winning sometimes and losing easy games in many times which is pissing Roma owners and the fact that Mourinho always blame the others for the defeat made them more angry.
I don't expect much from De Rossi, he needs to keep the form of the team and try to improve them steadily. This will take some time and luckily for him, his team will have easy games for a month against the last teams in the league before facing Inter Milan then Feyenoord in Europa League.

What is certain is that De Rossi will do his job and start managing AS Roma with the abilities he has. Let's just give him a chance first, even though it could be said that the coach doesn't have much experience. but we also need to remember, every great coach started his career starting from the bottom. currently, it is an opportunity for De Rosi to show his abilities. this week, AS Roma will host Verona's match and also De Rossi's debut with AS Roma. Let's see how he and his team go through the match. Referring to the temporary line-up predictions, the pattern that De Rossi will implement is likely to make Roma experience differences and changes in pattern from the coach before him.

Regarding how he collaborates with his team, we'll see whether De Rossi needs time or if he can adjust what he implements without taking a long time. In fact, before De Rossi became head coach of AS Roma, I'm sure he realized that what he was going to do was not an easy matter. but because De Rossi was willing to accept this job and agreed to become head coach of AS Roma. So like it or not, he has to do his best. especially in the game against Feyenoord. Also, in the Domestic League match when they hosted Inter Milan ahead of the Europa League playoff round. As for Jose Mourinho, now he no longer has any connection with the team from the Italian capital. So, let's find out before De Rossi plays match after match with his new squad in either Serie A or the Europa League.

It's evident to all that Leverkusen is having a great season. Any squad that wishes to defeat a team in such excellent form must work really hard. I am unable to comment on Leverkusen's current match vs Leipzig at Leipzig's home. Nevertheless, Leverkusen appears to be the favorite to win based on how both teams have performed thus far this season. Leverkusen has a strong chance of winning tomorrow's match, in my opinion.They will put in a lot of effort to win since Bayern Munich could exploit them if they make a mistake in any game. We'll see how the match plays out tomorrow; perhaps Leipzig can find a way to win. Observing events as they unfold on the field is always interesting!


But once again I have to say, based on the betting exchange, Leipzig is slightly favored even though the odds are very slim. Leizpig with odds @2.43, while Leverkusen with @2.65. which means, this match will offer an exciting fight. in fact, these two teams have a chance to beat each other, both Leipzig as the home team, as well as Leverkusen who play their away match. IMO, this match will be a challenge for Xavi Alonso's squad who must get full points to maintain their ranking at the top of the Bundesliga standings. at the same time, it becomes a burden for them when they visit the Res Bul Arena. because, Xabi Alonson must maintain the performance of his quad squad even though Victor Boniface is absent from the match between these two teams. even though Leverkusen is in its best performance, that doesn't mean Leverkusen will easily overthrow Marco Rose's squad like in the first meeting. Moreover, this match was held at the Red Bul Arena, the home of RB Leipzig. To be honest, I don't want to speculate or make predictions regarding this match. which means, I still need some additional information. however, for temporary predictions I favor Leipzig in the meeting between these two teams. To confirm the results of my analysis, I waited before this match was held. so, let's wait.

What two games just have giftedto us this two teams, im refering to Atletico MAdrid and Real Madrid, just incredible in a short span of time two games with more than 10 goals combined and high level of emotions, i cant just imagine how the fans feel in both matches. One per side ended up.
The match is still quite surprising to me because if somebody had told me the match will end that way I wouldn't have agreed because we no how real Madrid have been very dominating this season on almost every of there leagues, so I was thinking they will use that force or energy on Atletico Madrid because on a serious note real Madrid has more quality and experience players than Atletico Madrid and even on there current position on La Liga real Madrid is still above them but however is just unfortunate for real Madrid that Atletico Madrid show them what they did not expect and how they were able to disorganized there defense by putting serious pressure on them, perhaps is a match that real Madrid will really go home and thank about.

Posted previously, I stated that this Madrid derby match would present a match with hot tension. because for these two teams, there is a nuance to their prestige as city rivals. I also said that Atletico Madrid had a chance to overthrow Madrid in the Copa Del Rey meeting. and it was proven, even though the match continued into extra time. however, I previously doubted that this match would end in the normal 90 minutes. and yeah, as I expected, the match lasted quite a bit and there were a lot of goals in this match until the minute of extra time. Well, what I said is not just a guess. At least, I tried to do research and analyze how this match will go and what the results will be. This prediction is supported by all the information I got, also regarding the systems and patterns of the two teams.

It is important to note, Real Madrid suffered their only defeat in La Liga by Atletico Madrid with a score of 3-1. Armed with this match, Simeone tried to maximize his squad and it proved so. They took the lead in the first half, until Real Madrid equalized to 2-2 in normal time. Apart from that, the odds given by the bookie are only a small point difference. but in fact, those who choose to bet on these two teams lose. because the match ended in a draw in normal time. This scenario is included in my predictions plus ATM's chance to beat Real Madrid. then the Over option is the most ideal choice. By the way, a strong team, even one that is currently in a positive trend. does not guarantee that they will always win the match. and it was proven, Dioge Simeone's squad was again able to win the prestigious duel between city rivals in the Copa del Rey competition.

But they sell Messi, Neymar, Verratti and Ramos are the sign they're not really want to win the Champions League. They only sign mediocre players in this season and they didn't sign a top coach, so I don't expect they will go anywhere in this season.

Mental could also become one of the factor, since they can't become a champion, it might make them think they're not really deserved in this league and they feel inferior.

Messi left as a free agent, if I'm not mistaken, so did Ramos. they let go of Neymar, because PSG saw an opportunity to profit from Al Hilal. moreover, Neymar is very prone to injury. currently PSG only has Mbappe, there is no choice for PSG to change their philosophy. from mega star projects, now it is dominated by young players. PSG actually doesn't recruit mediocre players, Dembelle is Barcelona's mainstay player. Goncalo Ramos is a young talent, Kolo Muani has talent that can be developed. plus, the current PSG coach is quite accomplished, at least he won the treble winner if I'm not mistaken with Barcelona in his first season. Apart from that, in the second season Enrique won two wins with Barcelona. at least, he was a pretty good coach. the reason is, not all coaches are able to handle a top team filled with many stars. there are egos among the players, there is also competition, but Enrique is able to handle it well, especially in the dressing room.

With PSG, he did the same thing. now, disputes between players can no longer be heard despite the departure of Messi and Neymar. Just look, how Enrique brings PSG better than Galtier without Messi, Neymar, Ramos and several other players. he proved his worth, that he is a worthy coach. in this season, I'm sure that Enrique is fully aware that his team is not strong enough to compete with other top European teams. But at least, he and his squad will always try to work as hard as possible. In the next season, if Enriue is still trusted as PSG coach, maybe he will be given full support to bring in the players he wants.  Apart from that, Enrique's current task is to build his team so that it becomes more established and brings out the talent and potential of its players. that means, he is building the team's mentality to achieve what both the coach and the club want.

Vietnam is always a difficult opponent for Indonesia but luck came from a penalty kick from Asnawi, currently they are leading 1 - 0 because they were awarded a penalty, I hope Indonesia is not too happy in this victory which usually makes them nervous and not concentrating which will obviously make It was easy for Vietnam to score a goal back to make it a draw, of course Indonesia's victory was really hoped for by all supporters in Indonesia.

Japan's defeat will certainly create an opportunity for Indonesia to qualify from this group, even though we know it will be difficult to win against Japan and Vietnam at this time, I hope Indonesia will learn a lot from their mistakes against Iraq yesterday and will be enthusiastic again to perform optimally and be better against Vietnam today. Tensions are always high when the two meet, but I'm confident that if Indonesia plays more calmly and in control, I'm sure they can win against Vietnam.

No need to win big, a narrow win is enough for Indonesia at least a score of 2 - 1 for Indonesia to win, to win my bet too, lol

It seems that you are quite familiar with typical Asian football, especially ASEAN representative teams and it seems like we are located in the same country. but if I'm wrong, sorry, I'm just trying to guess. To be honest, I didn't watch this fight. however, if I refer to match data and statistics. this match was quite balanced, even though Vietnam had a little more control over ball possession. however, in terms of opportunities, Indonesia has more opportunities, although there is only a slight difference. this victory is enough to make me happy as a supporter of my own national team. however, there is something different about the pattern used by Shin Tae-yong, usually this Korean coach always uses an offensive system. in the two Asian Cup matches, Shin Tae-yong used a 5-4-1 pattern. Plus, Shin Tae-yong places more trust in the young boy, Rafael Struick. although in fact, there are senior players who are quite worthy of being brought to the national team level in this championship as center forwards. But this is the style of this Korean coach, sometimes relying more on young talent.

By the way, this time Indonesia was lucky to get a prize at the penalty point and it was executed very well by Asnawi. The match against Japan is a very difficult match for the young Garuda squad to get full points. but at least football is unique, and there are always surprises. I hope that Shin Tae-yong is able to bring his squad to a better level.

Sadly for Indonesia, they were beaten by Iraq in their first game of the group stage age a lot of people are of the opinion that they deserve a better result in that game. I watched the game and can authoritatively say that the in that game, Iraq were simply the best team of the tournament and I would've been very surprised if Iraq never got all three points from that game.

Later today, the Indonesian team will have a chance to get their first points of the year's Asian Cup against Vietnam and I think they really stand a good chance to come win that particular encounter.

I'm really not surprised by the results of the Indonesia vs Iraq match, because these two teams have a gap, especially if we refer to the FiFA rankings. just look at how Iraq played in the match against Japan, they are currently leading 2-0. and if this match lasts until the end, or Iraq is able to win the match until this match is over. meaning, Iraq is ranked first in the group phase. plus, a historic victory for Iraq to overthrow Japan.

As for the Indonesia vs Vietnam match, it looks like it will be quite an exciting match because this match has the potential for high tension. these two teams are rivals in the AFF competition, so this match brings prestige to both teams. however, in terms of FiFA rankings, Vietnam is ranked far above Indonesia. Likewise, based on betting odds, Vientam is @1.99 and Indonesia is @3.40. Based on the statistics of these two teams, it is clear that Vietnam is far superior to Indonesia. IMO, Over is the ideal option for betting, because Indonesia is our national team, so Over 2.5 @1.85 is the most ideal option. or, choose Indonesia as moral support for our national team for this match. So, let's wait for the final result of this match.

As I suspected and posted previously, in this match there will be many cards issued by the referee. Plus, I said that this match would be very tough. It is clear that Atteltico Madrid does not want to lose to its city rivals. and this match ended with a score of 2-2 in normal time. right with my prediction, if choosing a team is not ideal. That's why, the over option and targeting 3+ goals in this match. the results are as we see. Both teams played hard to win. Unfortunately, Atletico were unable to maintain their lead after they were ahead with a score of 2-1. In the 82nd minute, Joselu was able to equalize the score at 2-2. even though, the match was almost towards the end. In this match, Vini Jr did not play with his best performance. Apart from that, Nancho Fernandez also played badly in defense. referring to the chances of the two teams, there is no significant difference. ATM had 9 shots on target, 4 big chances. while Madrid, 6 shots on target, 3 big chances, 2 shots hit the post. Now, Atletico is back ahead in extra time in the first half with a goal created by Griezmann, now the score is 3-2.
1108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 18, 2024, 10:30:18 PM
I think Leverkusen will get full points against Leipzig. Leverkusen is getting stronger, they always grow their performance under Xabi Alonso's management. Even Bayern Munich can't beat Leverkusen, how Leipzig can have the chance to beat them? If all Leverkusen key players are available for the match against Leipzig, I am sure Leverkusen probably get the points in Leipzig home. Leverkusen already defeated Leipzig in matchday 1, they must know how to beat Leipzig again. Anyway, Xabi Alonso must be aware that the win against Leipzig will be crucial for them. They will have a big match against Bayern Munich in the next few matches. So, Leverkusen must keep winning the full points before the match.


If I try to speculate for a while, especially now, I am more in favor of the home team being able to beat Leverkusen in the next match. I try to refer to various aspects and also based on the betting exchanges displayed by the bookies. IMO, this match has the potential to result in a draw or a win for the home team. Well, if you only look at one match, Bayern vs Leverkusen, for me it's not a benchmark that can really be used as a reference. Moreover, at that time the goalkeeper for Bayern was Ulreich. plus, Thomas Thucel has not yet found a pattern that is his mainstay. Now, Bayern Munich for me is very different.

Meanwhile, Leverkusen will visit the Red Bul Arena without Vitvor Bonifcae, especially since this match is a home match. For me, this match has a very big influence on Leverkusen, including Leipzig as the home team. What is certain is that the home team will not let them be defeated at home. Marco Rose will prepare his team to play optimally to get full points.
On the contrary, this match is a challenge match for Leverkusen. Previously they had difficulty overthrowing Augsburg, although in the end they were able to score a goal in a crucial minute. Leipzig was defeated at the BayArena, Leverkusen's headquarters, but that doesn't mean the same thing will happen again. Well, isn't it exciting? but this is just my speculation for now. What is certain is that I have to gather other information before this match is held.
1109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: January 18, 2024, 10:05:40 PM
Every year is always different, because this can be seen through every season played by all teams in any league and for PSG. It seems like they can only hope for trophies in their own local league, while the Champions League trophy is still very difficult because here there are still many obstacles that PSG must overcome. Apart from that, PSG has also had three stars for their attack line in previous seasons, but PSG has also never succeeded in the Champions League.

IMO, I don't see the potential if PSG is able to reach the final round of this competition. yeah, we can see it when Paris Saint-Germain plays their match in the group phase. For me, PSG does not yet meet the criteria as a strong competitor in the race for trophies. moreover, Enrique is actually building his team with the young players they have brought in. ideally, Ligue 1 is still theirs. But it's up to us to see how far Enrique is able to take his team to advance in this competition.

in the previous season, you had to look at the other side of the PSG players. At that time, several players were injured, especially Neymar and several important defensive line players. So, it's natural that they didn't play as effectively as we expected. Plus, the PSG midfielder at that time was also underperforming. Well, for me it was natural that PSG lost to Bayern Munich at that time. and the main problem, the PSG coach has difficulty handling a club that has star players. their egos in the dressing room, will have an impact and it does. Galtier has no experience managing a team as big as PSG. Plus, he doesn't have a standard pattern that he relies on. I see it more if in the next season, PSG will make progress, especially in the Champions League competition. However, for this season, it seems that this competition trophy is not their main target.
1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 18, 2024, 09:40:14 PM
Nobody in the league will catch up to PSG, the league is already over, to be fair it was over even before the season started but there were some discussions about Mbappe not playing and having trouble and all that. When that was over and he started to play ,the locker room dangers and troubles  of the club was over and they became great again. This league will continue to be dominated by them, thank god that Lille won once in the middle, or we would have probably something longer than what Bayern has done.

I believe that they are going to end up with PSG just getting titles and titles for many years, ligue one needs some other rich person to buy some club, otherwise it is not going to really work out well for them, it will not be a good result.

Even if that is the case, there is no definite guarantee. but there's no harm in taking part in every match presented in this competition, especially those that involve betting. However, there are still several teams that will compete fiercely, at least in the race for runner up ranking below PSG. Nice, Brest, AS Monaco and Lille still have the potential to overtake each other throughout this competition. and that match was more exciting than watching PSG play against an Underdog team. however, that doesn't mean PSG will progress smoothly, as this competition still has a lot of matches left. PSG could occasionally slip, especially if they focus more on the Champions League.

However, I still agree that the probability of PSG dominating this competition is very high. moreover, their performance is in a positive trend in Ligue 1. Well, currently rumors are still confusing about Mbappe whether he will stay or eventually leave and move to another club and league. but if he ends up leaving, that means Enrique will have to prepare a replacement. and I think PSG has anticipated it, if in the end their star really leaves. Let's just follow what Ligue 1 presents, but so far there are no investors who are really interested in becoming PSG's competitors in Ligue 1. Except, there are other Arab princes who are interested in buying one of the clubs and growing it. thus, PSG will have competitors. The problem is, what are they looking for in Ligue 1. Because most are more interested in other leagues, especially the Premier League.

Mourinho habit of ranting is always awaited by the media crew, usually what Mourinho says is always the top topic, that's the fact. Mourinho dismissal, which seemed to surprise everyone, certainly had a big impact on the club. Whether De Rossi is able to bring Roma to an impressive performance in the Europa League like last season, and basic things like that will be the emphasis on Roma future journey. Starting with facing Feyenoord in the Play Off round, I think Roma chances of reaching the final like last season are getting tougher because of Mourinho dismissal. If you compare Mourinho with De Rossi, it is clear that the difference in level between the two is very visible, Mourinho is much better and has much more experience in European competitions.

De Rossi certainly understands the club very well, because he is one of the club legends, but for what Mourinho inherited, De Rossi must be very grateful to him. One of them is Lukaku, I think the reason the striker is willing to go on loan to Roma is because of the Mourinho factor, and when Mourinho leaves Lukaku also has the potential to leave at the end of the season. Apart from that, there must be a strong reason why Mourinho was suddenly fired, it is reported that the Portuguese coach relationship with the club president was not harmonious.

Mourinho should be well aware, as are those who oppose his dismissal. I don't really follow the development of Serie A, but based on AS Roma's statistics in the domestic league, it doesn't show good progress. Currently, AS Roma is ranked 9th in the Serie A standings and their performance is unstable. in this case, don't blame the club too much if the decision was made because the coach was unable to meet expectations and make his squad much better. Moreover, the style and system that he promoted mostly still implemented old tactics and strategies. If Mourinho is capable and makes a big contribution, it is impossible for the club management to fire him rashly.

Honestly, I don't intend to badmouth Jose Mourinho when he handles AS Roma. But as far as I watched, especially last season in the European Lige competition, AS Roma rarely played with an impressive performance. Most of them got ugly wins, especially against Leverkusen in the semi-finals of this competition. Now, club management is giving another coach the opportunity, namely De Rossi. I don't know much about his work as a coach. Moreover, he doesn't have many achievements, but just give him a chance, the club management is well aware of the consequences after firing Mourinho. related as you said, regarding rumors of disharmony between the coach and the club president, especially if it is not a problem with the club's performance. But whatever the background, Jose Mourinho is no longer in charge of AS Roma. Let's see how De Rossi handles AS Roma. especially, in the playoff round against Feyenoord.

Jordan Henderson is terminating his contract. Because his wife couldn't get used to the life and environment in Saudi Arabia, Henderson gave up his hefty contract and returned to Ajax. They lasted there only half a season. It's really difficult for Europeans to keep up with the reactionary mentality there. The image of the Saudi Arabian league cannot be improved despite spending so much money because they are far behind the times in terms of human rights.

Well, it seems that Henderson has made a very firm decision to leave one of the Saudi Pro League clubs. and if that's the case, that's what's best for him rather than continuing to push and having his own kind of pressure. especially, as you say. If this is related to a family problem, then Henderson's decision is very correct. and hopefully, I hope, it has nothing to do with his performance with Al Ettifaq. I also read from Romano's report in his tweet, Jordan Henderson has joined Ajax from Al Ettifaq. Al Ettifaq has also confirmed that Jordan Henderson's contract has been terminated by mutual agreement. In fact, it seems that Henderson expressed his words of thanks to the club, fans and everyone involved for this opportunity. at least, the agreement was established well and no problems occurred.

Btw I will not involve human rights with football, what image Saudi Arabia is building has nothing to do with football. the culture they have built has existed since time immemorial, and we must respect what they hold and uphold. Maybe in fact Henderson is not as ideal as his expectations when he joined Al Ettifaq, that's why he chose to return to a European club even though Ajax is also not performing well. I'm waiting for other rumors, yeah, continuation related to Benzema.
1113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 18, 2024, 07:32:42 PM
According to this record both teams have had so far this season, I am sure one of them, particularly Atletico Madrid, will have a different result today. This is because Real Madrid is a team that is focused on winning almost all the trophies this season, including cups. I don't think they will allow Atletico Madrid to beat them even though they will be playing at home, because statistically, Real Madrid should be considered favorites because they have a good winning ratio against Atletico Madrid overall, but that is not a guarantee for Real Madrid because anything can happen.

However, if I refer to the betting odds, it looks like this match will offer quite an exciting match considering that the betting bookies don't really show any significant differences for the two teams. Atletico with odds @2.70, while Madrid with @2.41. I will interpret that this match will be quite tough. even though Real Madrid can be said to be a team that is in its best form, especially in La Liga, this does not mean that Carlo Ancelotti's team will overthrow Diego Simeone's squad easily. Atletico's defeat in the Supercopa de Espana will motivate Diego Simeone's squad to show their best performance in this match. Moreover, the Madrid derby usually presents a match with a hot atmosphere. It could be that the referee issued many cards in this match. Referring to betting options, however, Real Madrid will always be the favorite team as a choice in betting. However, Atletico nevertheless has a chance to fight back and win this match. For me, it is more ideal to bet on Over 2.75 with odds @1.75, at least there must be at least 3 more goals in this match. Over is better than choosing a team, because I also see the opportunity for ATM to beat Real Madrid.

On Saturday, Arsenal host Crystal Palace in the English Premier League and a win in that game will draw them level with third placed Aston Villa and second placed Manchester City who currently have have played the same number of games with Arsenal. They're currently five points behind league leaders Liverpool having played the same number of games and that means that mathematically, Arsenal are still very much in contention for the English Premier League title this season.

But personally, I don't consider Arsenal as a major title contender for the league title this season and that's because of their inconsistent results and performances. I'll be happy if they prove me wrong by winning the league title at the end of the season but that I think will be a very difficult one for Mikel Arteta's men

They will try to prove it, until the Premier League match ends. in this way, Arteta will restore his squad's performance to its original state and get back on track. obstacles and challenges will always be there, but like it or not, the Gunners have to go through them until the final struggle. this competition is only halfway through, there are still many matches left for Arsenal to prove that they are capable of continuing to provide tough competition. now, one of their problems seems to be answered or almost realized. I mean, Arteta is reportedly really looking at a pure striker for number 9 in their squad. If that happens, Arsenal's attack line will be even sharper with very creative players. also, the match against Crystal Palace must be a winning opening match for Arsenal to get a good start in advancing to the next matches with a win. Arsenal's goal is not only to shift Aston Villa's ranking, but to compete fiercely in the race for the top of the standings. I just hope that Arteta really brings in a pure, established striker who they can rely on as a goal-scoring machine in their squad. in this way, Arsenal will become more competitive and not only in the Premier League, but also become an opponent to be reckoned with in the Champions League. well, let's just wait and see how Arsenal will face Crystal Palace this week at the Emirates.
1115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Low cost but effective solutions to gambling addiction on: January 18, 2024, 04:48:00 PM
Once gambling becomes an addiction it is really difficult to quit. When gambling consumes a person's thoughts and actions silently when they cannot stop even after repeated attempts when all economic family or social relationships are gradually destroyed then it will turn into a mental illness. If a gambler can keep himself in control then no action is needed. But when you lose control and your family goes beyond correction you have to find another way.

If someone has strong intentions and determination, the addiction can be corrected or even completely eliminated. so, it all depends on each individual. but nothing is easy and instant, everything has to go through a process. and most importantly, realizing that we have a problem with gambling addiction. by realizing it, and being accepted with full awareness. then, efforts to stop it will come from within us. especially if accompanied by awareness of the consequences we cause, after going through the many phases we have gone through. for example, difficulty in stopping, the impact on family relationships, the economy, even the stage at which a person becomes mentally ill. yeah, like you said in this post.

But the problem is, it's not just self-control that plays the most role. but awareness, and knowing the limits of what we can afford. Self-control is born from awareness and responsibility for what we do consciously, especially when it is related to gambling. Based on experience, a person can train himself to be more disciplined. especially, if it is related to gambling. Just play with something you think you can afford, if you lose, it's over. however, until this process occurs, a person must first go through the healing phase of their addiction, and that is not easy as I said above. there are various methods that a person can use, including going to a rehabilitation center. there are also those who do it themselves, but with awareness and a strong determination to change it. at first it will definitely be very difficult, but if you get used to it over time it will become something normal. once liberated, and have an understanding of the limitations that only we can afford, then we will have responsibility and self-control. however, it is still important to always increase awareness. so, gamble as much as you can afford. If today the money we have is more important for other priorities, then we can gamble another day without forcing it.

How would you feel if you had the opportunity to cashout this amount, and later loose all?

most times people always find it difficult to cashout their fund when they have the opportunity,  due to having that mindset that they want to go home with the Goody bag. by so doing Sometimes the game will end without them winning a dime. but loosing all to nothing. while some will cashout, and later the game will end well and they will start regretting why dey didn't wait to the final.
now my question this,

cashing out or waiting till the end of game which is more better?

I think it depends on the case, where this will be closely related to your initial bankroll. If you start betting with a bankroll within your means, then you win $1.8 million, this is an extraordinary win, especially for me personally. then will I cash out, of course yes. I will withdraw, because the value of what I bet has multiplied even far beyond my expectations. in my case, I gamble with a bankroll I can afford. which means, it is rare to bet with a large enough bankroll. with this fairly large cashout opportunity, of course I will cash out as soon as possible, regardless of the gambling I play. the problem is different, if you are a gambler who has large finances. maybe for some gamblers, this win is just a normal thing and they will wait until the end. so not everyone will do the same thing, the same goes for gambling cases. moreover, if you believe that you are sure that you will win the battle. thus, you will only use it until the end of this bet. but, from the image displayed in this thread. if it's dollars, then only financially secure people can do it. for us ordinary gamblers, just getting a few thousand dollars is already very happy and joyful.

Surprise!Surprise! It has been reported that Arsenal is in talks with benzema to potentially loan him from al ittihad, and it's exciting to see that there is a possibility of him joining the English Premier League this season. I would like to see him join in the chelsea but it seems like that arsenal is one step ahead compared to the chelsea.
Don't take it seriously caused by benzema join in a club that has never won UCL. It was shocking me that i never expect that if arsenal would be interesting to sign him as a new player. I was hoeping that benzema to stay but it seems like that he will be interesting to play in the premier league.

Benzema was a one tap specialist and he may be useful for arsenal. This guy has a very good positioning and i think that he will be join in premier league. Im waiting for the further news regarding this.
He may be deciding his final decision very soon. There's no need to feel doubt about that. Bnzema was a good striker even though he was old. Arsenal can at least has more option on its strikers.

Nketiah and gabriel are still performing so badly. Benzema would become a short term solution for the club.

I just read rumors regarding Arsenal considering a blockbuster loan for striker number 9, referring to the Teamtalk report. I didn't even think that Benzema was still in great demand even by several top clubs in the Premier League. If I'm not mistaken, Manchester United was initially linked with a loan for the former French international. however, HITC reported that the Red Devils have no intention of signing Benzema this month.
Meanwhile Arsenal surprised me that they were considering Benzema. with the scenario, if Arsenal can get the veteran striker on a temporary contract. So, it's no longer a secret that Arsenal needs another number 9 who can really be relied on in terms of scoring goals for their squad. honestly, I can't describe what it would be like if Benzema played with the Gunners. I don't know what to think, but as an Arsenal supporter I'm happy if this rumor is true. Moreover, Benzema is interested in joining the Gunners.

Likewise with Chelsea, Pohce has been linked with a number of attacking options. considering that Nicolas Jackson is not completely convincing as a striker who can be relied on. and rumors are that Chelsea is also continuing to monitor Bemzema's situation at Al Ittihad. If Arteta is really interested in Benzema, as an Arsenal supporter I really support him. even though Bemzema is no longer young, Arsenal's style of play seems to provide a more deadly attack power. Nevertheless, we'll just have to wait and see what Arsenal will do and the same goes for Benzema. Maybe this is just gossip or part of the options in Arsenal's plans. Also, it's not certain that Benzema will be willing to join the Gunners, we'll just follow further developments.

How can one control the uncontrollable urge to keep gambling despite the toll it takes on once life.

It's getting worse every day. I'm extremely depressed I have thoughts of unaliving myself more often, some times I feel the betting companies manipulate people spiritually to get them addicted where be playing without plans and strategy. Once a bet place get cut, there is this uncomfortable urge to quickly book another one with the plans of recovering the first money lost but it will end up cutting again.

There are many types of gambling disorders, but it seems like you have a pretty serious case. in fact, I have no intention of teaching you or trying to patronize you, or even judge you for the gambling you do. but let me share an experience that I have had. however, it is important to note, in every case experienced by every person who has a disorder like the one you said in this thread, the actions or methods of healing or how to deal with it are different. but you can try to do the treatment that I did before, when I was addicted.

The first thing I did, was to recognize myself. believe it or not, for me it works and is useful. in this process, everything depends on each individual who has this disorder in the process of recognizing themselves. in this case, the meaning is very broad. however, let's relate it to gambling. imagine, what is your goal for gambling. the answer is simple, to win. regardless of the idea of ​​having fun, or entertainment. If you are aware of this, then the root of the problem is your desire and ambition to get money quickly from the gambling you do. When you play a gambling session, you always lose. Actually, bookies or casinos are not like what you describe. but we are the ones who manipulate our minds, with the lure of wanting to win every session. In fact, casinos often give winnings according to the portion. because we don't feel satisfied, or a new game has started. in the end, we continue the game. which ended, as happened to you yourself.

Now, let's return to the first point. after you try to know yourself. Try asking yourself, in a calm situation, what are we looking for in gambling. money, pleasure, entertainment, whatever it is you have to answer it honestly with yourself. then, consider which one is better and will not harm or even harm you. If you are looking for money, you can get it by working. If you are looking for fun and entertainment, then budget as much as you can afford. Forget about your past defeats, because it is almost impossible to recover them. especially, if you have been gambling for years. also, try to balance it with a new understanding of the gambling you do.  shape yourself with responsibility, then you will have self-control. But before all this process, the real challenge is how do you train and make peace with all the defeats you experience. thus, you will not try to chase losses in your gambling sessions, because you have a new understanding of your gambling. If you feel like stopping, keep training yourself until you really recover. one more thing, it all starts to be built from yourself and on your own awareness.

Im much aware about into those certain or couple of religions who do really have that kind of treatment or views towards gambling but well lets just respect on what these religions do have
those kind of prohibitions and if we are someone whose really that under that religion then it would really be just that right that we should follow not unless if you are really that going
against into that principle then it would be your choice. Tons of people does have that kind of committing those kind of acts on which they are really that doing gambling despite of being prohibited.
This is common and casual but it turns out that not all would really be having that kind of obedience when it comes to this, well its their choice to make not ours.

In fact, if we relate it to any religion or belief, especially the one most widely believed in by the world community.  there are many prohibitions, which do not allow it, not only gambling, crypto, and others like that. If someone is based on what he believes and what he adheres to, let's respect it with tolerance. however, if this is the case, it means that a person must comply with all prohibitions and not just gambling. So, we will not hold ourselves to double standards. "for those who adhere to their religion".

Talking about gambling, gambling has been found since ancient times in almost every corner of the world and one of the things that is often discussed is from ancient China. Gambling has evolved from era to era, traditional ones have changed with the advancement of time and technology, as well as human resources themselves. In this era, gambling has become part of instant entertainment amidst the glittering life of a metropolitan city. what are the benefits, yeah to entertain visitors. however, this type of entertainment is quite risky and expensive.

Now, the digital era and technology dominate the market. however, in principle, gambling in the current era is more of a type of entertainment but has risks involved. If we relate it to belief or religion, believe me, the discussion will never end, even in debate. after all, we are humans who always break the rules. In essence, it all comes down to each individual assessing gambling from their point of view. if it is negative, then what comes to mind are bad things. But if it's entertainment, then what you think about is something that entertains. Regardless of winning or losing, gambling houses, online casinos, never tell us to be directly involved in gambling. So, just enjoy it if you like this activity without harming anyone. on the contrary, ignore it as far as possible if it is detrimental. yeah, it's that simple.

this season the competitors are very fierce and will certainly want to snatch the trophy from Pep Guardiola's hands
When competitions are like this, I really enjoy it a lot
I like knowing I'm watching a game where they don't play defense but dare with the desire to win
in the end I pay for the ticket for that reason
I feel like it is the opposite, hopefully I will turn out to be wrong but I feel like it is quite clear that we are talking about a season where City and Real Madrid are the only ones trying to win it. Don't get me wrong, they were always that good, look at who has won it in the last 7-8 years and you will see it, but they are even better now. I am not saying there is no possibility of anyone else winning, of course it can be done, it is not impossible but I feel like it is not that easy neither.

I believe that City may have a good chance when all their players are back, Kevin De Bruyne is back now and he is better than ever, and Haaland will be back too, so when they have all their players, there aren't that many who will be better than them.

We will find out once this competition restarts, which team is the most consistent. talking about Real Madrid and City, no one doubts it. In fact, I'm more on City's side if Pep Guaridola's squad returns with a complete squad. I argue based on the assumption that supporters are neutral, without any tendency to side with one team because of emotions. This is purely a personal assessment, with the existing squads of both teams. plus, the individual stability of each player. however, when on the field, there is no guarantee that City will play impressively even if they play their core squad including Haaland and De Bruyne. In football, there are many possibilities that occur, including teams that were not initially considered or were not strong contenders in this competition.

Likewise with Real Madrid, so far they have performed impressively in their domestic league, but we will find out how well the team is doing as a whole when they play again in the last 16 phase and beyond if they manage to qualify. This is not because Madrid has a wealth of experience in the Champions League, but currently Real Madrid is dominated by a young squad. It could be that Madrid is indeed strong and capable of winning the Champions League trophy this season. It could also be the other way around, if they fall before advancing to the final round. There are also other teams, which are ready to face these two teams when they meet next. even though it could be said their chances are small, football is unique. that a strong team will not always win the match. but as I said above, if I am allowed to assume and speculate based on personal judgment. City remains a strong candidate to defend its title. but if I hope, the team that is my favorite in this competition will be able to overthrow Real Madrid and City if they meet. OK, so let's just enjoy it.
