As the defending champions so much is expected from them in the Champions league this season. Their success in the Champions league this season will depend on how much resistance they can show against any other opponent in the tournament this season begining from beating Liverpool in the next knockout round. This is a difficult task for Real Madrid and facing Liverpool for the third time I'm sure Liverpool will be looking for revenge this time.
I see little chance for Liverpool to be able to win over Real Madrid because Madrid has so far been consistent with their appearance, very different from Liverpool, which until now still has problems with the front and back lines. see how liverpool ended in defeat against man city even though many opportunities were created, it shows that liverpool still has problems. I think Liverpool will take revenge for their previous defeat and this is an opportunity for Liverpool to meet Real Madrid again in the top 16, even though Real Madrid has the potential to win again but of course stay alert to Liverpool's game which might surprise them in the match
revenge? I also hope they can do that but we have to look at the history that has happened between the two teams,  Madrid has continued to excel in their last 5 matches and the results later I think will not be much different. @SatoPrincess on paper I would say that Real Madrid should win these fixtures and progress to the next round, however Liverpool have secured the transfer of Gakpo who could turn out to be a wild card for Liverpool and may just help them win against Real Madrid. However there’s also a probability that he may fail to shine, because he’ll need time to settle in hence don’t wager only because of this transfer and lastly do remember to study both team’s form and injuries before locking in your bet. |

Here are the results from the games that took place today: Brentford 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur
Crystal Palace 0-3 Fulham
Everton 1-2 Wolverhampton Wanderers
Leicester City 0-3 Newcastle United
Southampton 1-3 Brighton and Hove Albion Another loss for Lampard as Everton manager. Frankly, is Frank good enough to be a Premier League manager? Newcastle score a big win at Leicester and show their determination at trying to finish in a Champions League position. They currently sit in 2nd place now behind leaders Arsenal. As for Tottenham, they had to fight back to salvage a draw at Brentford. Welcome back to the Premier league after the winter World Cup in Qatar  Aston Villa vs Liverpool and Arsenal vs West Ham United are late kick-offs and results will be posted later after the games have ended. @JollyGood honestly I’m surprised that he’s yet not been sacked, because if the owner’s want to save Everton then Lampard should definitely be asked to leave because he’s not ready to handle a premier league club. Furthermore when the club fans boo on their own team it’s a clear sign that something is not right, and Everton board need to act right away before it’s too late to keep Everton in the premier league. |

today I read a post where Dinash Kaneria - a banned pakistani cricketer was making fun of Shahid Afridi - People are not happy on Namaj Sethi and Shahid Afridi being added to selection committee. But there are some people who are liking their decisions. One person comes and make some changes the other person comes and destroys it. what are your thoughts on Najam sethi being Chairman PCB
I haven't read the post from Danish Kaneria. But with every passing day I am getting more and more skeptical about Najam Sethi. He was the chairman of PCB on two previous occasions (2013-2014, 2017-2018). On both occasions, he was appointed by Nawaz Sharif when Mamnoon Hussain was the president. And now Shehbaz Sharif has nominated him to the post for the 3rd time. He seems to be very close to the Sharif family. But apart from his closeness to the politicians, there is hardly anything worthwhile to talk about him. I just hope that all the hard work put in by Rambo doesn't get destroyed by Sethi. @Sithara007 I did see that post but to be honest this is Afridi’s moment to prove his critics wrong, but will he able to prove them wrong is something none of us can predict till he’s actually given some time in this new role of his. Furthermore in my personal opinion Sethi starts with a clean chit, because the situation is totally different now and Pakistan cricket can grow a lot with the right support hence he’ll be foolish to do anything that can jeopardise their growth. |

Manchester City and Liverpool had a great match, scoring five goals together. This time Manchester City won with 3 goals, two of which were scored after great passes by De Bruyne and a couple of times City could score more from the same De Bruyne. Haaland also scored as usual, his scoring sense is just "animal", no chance for the opponent if he is at the edge of the attack.
Liverpool also played well, but from the outside it seemed that they lacked skilled players in attack, and Salah alone was not enough to win. It's good that after so many years Milner is still in the ranks and plays very well, gives out assists and manages to insure the defense.
Before I did not know about the existence of such a tournament (Carabao Cup). I always thought that it was all one Premier League, which has the English Cup.
It turns out there is another quite interesting tournament in England.
The Caraboa cup was formally called the Carling cup. It has always been in existence. Nunez was mostly responsible for Liverpool's loss. He missed too many golden chances. He can't continue like that if he's to take Liverpool anywhere. If they had a clinical striker up front they might have even won the match. He's good off the ball and knows how to force attack but when it comes to scoring he's not that guy at all. Liverpool's offense, of course, was very strange in this game. If it wasn't for Salah, you'd think it wasn't a Champions League and Premier League winner in the recent past, but some pretty average team. Maybe Klopp didn't want to field the strongest squad, but it still feels like the absence of Mane and some kind of stagnation in the transfer policy. In fact, all of Liverpool's successes were established long ago in 2015-18 when Klopp joined the team and came Mane, Firmino, Salah, Chamberlain, Van Dyke. yes, I also just listened to this cup because I saw Manchester City's match against Liverpool and Manchester City won that match, I thought it was the English league, it turned out to be another league cup, I enjoyed watching many matches, especially seeing the game of Manchester City and interestingly Manchester city has eliminated defending champion liverpool, waiting for the next game
After the World Cup games, it is quite difficult to return seeing normal games being played but City - Liverpool one was good. I didn't see the others, as I see all the remaining EPL teams in the Cup passed to the next stage except Brighton which was quite surprising. In the quarter final, Newcastle - Leicester will be the hardest one, the remaining games aren't that difficult for City, ManU or Wolves normally. I expected that both team’s will go easy in this fixture, but it seems that both managers wanted to give their player’s some match practice before the league matches begin hence we managed to witness an exciting contest. Furthermore this is not a new tournament, but managers don’t really prioritise it however I feel that both Manchester sides will prioritise it this season because it’ll give them at least one trophy by the time this season end’s. |

Ronaldo was mistreated during the 2022 world cup. The coach benched him for most of the quarter-final match and sent him only when 35 minutes or so was left. And as a result Portugal lost to Morocco. Irrespective of his age, Ronaldo remains the top performer for Portugal. But the coach didn't like him and therefore he wasn't given a chance to play for most of the duration. If Fernando Santos remains as the coach, then I don't think that Ronaldo should play for Portugal again. This is not the way to treat a legendary player.
In general, Ronaldo was the main focus in yesterday's world cup match, many people watched the world cup just to see Ronaldo playing at an aging age, but the impression was very different because the Portuguese coach preferred Ronaldo to be backed up making many people very Disappointed, we don't know what policies Fernando Santos is implementing in the World Cup matches this season, does he want to try to see the performance of the Portugal team if Ronaldo doesn't strengthen the team, or coach Fernando Santos has other assumptions. Not only when Portugal against Morocco Ronaldo was only sent 35 minutes before the end of the match, in the previous match Ronaldo was only sent in 20 minutes before the end of the match. And here it doesn't mean that I don't say Ronaldo Top Performance in this season's world cup match, but Portugal's attack would be better if Ronaldo was there. From what I heard on TV, the reason the coach from Portugal chose to leave Ronaldo on the bench was because in one of the games the coach substituted Ronaldo, and when Ronaldo was arriving to sit on the bench he complained to the coach for having substituted him, and coach of portugal did not like that attitude of ronaldo and for that reason he started not to put ronaldo to play 90 minutes, and of course that affected the team a lot, and something very visible, in that part the coach of portugal made a lot of mistakes, probably the coach of Portugal it started from the idea that if ronaldo is not playing at manchester united and has had good results, then if he does the same thing with portugal keeping ronaldo on the bench then they would have good results, and that resulted in the game in which portugal won by 6 - 1 against Switzerland, so the coach of portugal kept the same 11 to play against marricos who had good defense and studied the opponents well, this was the biggest mistake of the coach of portugal, he got carried away by anger and didn't think straight and lost the game I think the reason why Ronaldo didn't play all the World Cup games from the start, in the knockout stages, and why his career with the Portuguese national team is probably over for good, is much simpler. Ronaldo today is simply not the player he was a few years ago, a top player who makes a difference in the match with his goals and actions. The biggest problem is that he is not ready to accept this and in doing so he destroyed the team unity in Manchester United and Portugal, which directly hurt their results, considering that much more was written about a disgruntled Ronaldo than about the teams he plays for. Considering everything that happened in Qatar, it is very likely that Ronaldo will never play for Portugal again, and that we will not see him at the next European Championship in 2024. His football career is most likely over and all that is left for him is to go to a well-paid football pension to Saudi Arabia. I don’t understand why people blame the coach when Ronaldo is to be blamed, he scheduled an controversial interview right at the start of the World Cup which created unnecessary distraction for Portugal player’s. Furthermore during the tournament he decided to undermine the coach, and if you’ll remember Portugal did play well without him hence I don’t blame the coach and I personally feel that Ronaldo has only himself to be blamed for being benched because he once again tried to prioritise himself ahead of his country. |

Betting a lot more on Christmas month is not really a shocker because a lot of people have a lot more free time during this period, which gives us the chance to wager even more.
Doubling the monthly bonus, or having some extras per day like we have seen so far, is not really a big deal because it is marketing tool used by stake to get you to spend that extra free time here. I find it quite happy coincidence that the biggest rewards usually come from the most common holiday times.
The real question is, would people gamble on Christmas, or would they rather sit down and relax and have some fun. I think it is quite important to do a little bit of both, and stake is a good place for it.
I think the reason why there are more players who bet more during the Christmas season is not just because of free time but rather because of Christmas bonuses or end-of-year bonuses they've received on their work and also the bonuses and promotions given on most gambling platforms such as Stake. I, myself enjoy more time gambling during most of the holiday seasons as they provide great bonuses and it's a great incentive to have especially for long-time gamblers on the platform. You can try and associate these bonuses and promotions as a way for Stake to let us gamble longer on the platform but for most of us who regularly gamble, these bonuses are great incentives. About your question, it would depend on you but still, you have the option to do both. You can always spend time with your family and celebrate Christmas and then later gamble. Also, a lot of people find gambling not just a way to earn and double money but rather to have fun, relax and enjoy every gambling session with your gambling friends through chat. @Emitdama there’s no right or wrong answer for this question, but it could vary for each Stake user because some would have specially saved money to wager on Christmas while others could possibly want some thrill during the holidays hence they would have wagered. Lastly normally I like to save a bit to wager during the holidays, because in my case I get bored very quickly hence I wager small amounts to keep myself entertained. |

Although you have a valid point if we look at it from betting perspective but sometimes we bet just to have FUN and not the profits.
I do it sometimes just to see if I win the bet and ignore the odds. In such cases we can bet with extremely small amounts which are obviously affordable to lose.
It's common for many to gamble because they want to have fun, not winning is the main target, but if we have to throw away the satoshi we earn just to have fun without any chance of winning the bet, I will choose to save it more because we don't know what is the value of the satoshi in the future which will certainly be more valuable than today. I would say the opposite, and we can see it in the forum. For most people, the possibility of earning money is the main motive that drives them to gambling, with entertainment being a secondary factor. Those of us who seek entertainment because we are aware that it is a long term losing game, even if we sometimes come out with extra money, are in the minority. If we were in the majority, casinos would not be so profitable and there would not be so much movement on the forum in this section and with the gambling signature campaigns. Yeah, I am not sure from where the thoughts of "enjoying the gambling" is coming but at some point everyone needs profit. Otherwise for every game that I would be betting on, I am actually filling up the pockets of owners. (No offence @freebitcoin). I mean yes, I also play slots, roulette on various sites for fun but its not fun all the time if you are loosing lot of money. That would be crazy. To overcome this debate, I think there is simple solution for this. Every bettor whether putting money for fun or investing to earn more should be balancing both the ways. Neither go too far to loose all of it and there should be a break between two big losses/profits. @Flexystar there’s no right and wrong answer to this scenario, because some Freebitco user’s actually just gamble for the fun/thrill and don’t care about winning that much and these people have lots of cash hence they just gamble for fun. However on the other hand there’re gamblers who would only gamble there if they believed there’s a chance to win, and honestly both are right to gamble the way they like so I personally feel that we need to move on from this debate. |

@ampera jus saw this looks pretty interesting and all those who’re planning to try it kindly make sure you read all the rules, and this promotion is really simple so all should try their luck on it. Also any promotions for the premier league game’s since they’re resuming once again?, because after the big break we all could use some new promotions especially for the premier league game’s. |

How do you know Manchester City is going to win EFL Cup?
They are one of the strongest teams on paper but they often need to rotate and many players because they play in lot of competitions.
Last season Liverpool won EFL Cup final against Chelsea after penalties and Man City was out after losing from West Ham United.
True. Manchester City has become even stronger now thanks to Haaland, but they need a lot of luck to go their way too in order to end up winning the cup. Liverpool somehow managed to win multiple matches including the final thanks to penalties which implies that luck heavily favoured them due to which they claimed the cup after a long gap. @notblox1 normally I would say that Manchester City wouldn’t bother much about winning this competition, but Pep maybe motivated this time because he knows that there’s a chance he may not win the league title and champions league is unpredictable hence he may try and win this competition. Lastly Manchester City do have a good squad so even if they rotate a lot then too they’ll be able to put up a good lineup, however it’s way too early to predict that City can easily win this cup. |

I want to talk about Mbappe because after what he achieved in the World Cup he is improving again so the solution to develop his potential is to enter the Europa League area.
what do you think?
It looks like Real Madrid will buy Mbappe at a very high / very expensive price, considering that the performance that Mbappe showed in yesterday's World Cup match was very good, and he is a young player who has very good potential for his team and I think Mbappe will decide his future. future, as well as Real Madrid who really want to pay this young player with a very high price offer. Maybe it will be very likely that Mbappe will go to Real Madrid, although Wayne Rooney once told the young Mbappe to move to Manchester United and I don't think this will happen. Mbappe career is quite good. Mbappe is at the peak of his career, he is still very young, his performances on the field are also extraordinary. Real Madrid is perfect for Mbappe who wants to fulfill his dream of becoming the world's best player, the failure to bring France to win the world cup makes his chances of winning the Ballon d'Or even smaller because it will be difficult for him to compete with Messi. He has to make a decision, right now Real Madrid are very serious about bringing him to the Bernabeu. Mbappe should not waste this opportunity to win individual titles that can make his name even more equated with Ronaldo and Messi. @Fara Chan undoubtedly he should move to Real Madrid, because he can never achieve legendary status while playing for PSG. Furthermore with Benzema injured Real Madrid too know that they need a player like Mbappe for the 2023 - 2024 season, hence a deal can surely happen but if PSG asks for an unreasonable amount then he’ll be stuck with them for one more year. |

I had a lot of expectation from PJL and WPSL. But the elevation of Najam Sethi casts doubt about the continuation of these leagues. The above mentioned leagues are not very profitable and were designed by Rameez Raja when he was the PCB chairman. Najam Sethi doesn't care much about cricket and he is money minded. I don't know whether he will allow these leagues to function. It is a big loss to Pakistan cricket. Sethi will ruin Pakistani cricket and after a few years once again PCB will get some scapegoat like Rameez. The cycle will go on.
Expectation from a countries cricket board which is struggling to give a decent amount of electricity supply to its citizens is more than you as an individual living in India would think about in your every day life. Pakistan team in the past were a contingent to fear and now they are so down with uncertainty that it is better to not bet on them. In my opinion after Imran Khan was removed from the country as the PM this situation was waiting to happen. He was the individual who was trying to improve the level of cricket in Pakistan and above all abolish the authoritarian type of selecting a chairman of the cricket board. But, eventually those who are responsible for looting cricket board money and ruining its existence are back. I reckon dark days are again coming back. A bad political environment affects Ramiz Raja. In Pakistan cricket, fixing will be on the rise now that Sethi has returned due to the country's economic crisis. During Ramiz Raja's tenure as PCB chairman, Pakistan cricket made good progress. I am surprised that Sethi will be replacing him. Ramiz was a good man, so this was a bad decision. The people's reaction tells the whole story. It would have been better to try a new person with fresh ideas. The future looks bleak, so let's wait and see. I am sad that he is no longer the chairman of the PCB. However, I am looking forward to seeing him in the commentary box. Pakistan cricket is not going to prosper if Pakistan is under so many problems as a country. And another thing is that players are also not going to be able to play without any outside pressure at the back of their minds if the political situation in Pakistan is not good. Actually, the Cricketer's order Pakistan Cricket board actually cannot do anything in this matter, in my opinion. Well, I think the Pakistan Cricket Board could do anything if the government did not have so much to say about who will be in charge of the Pakistan Cricket board. I think it would have been great if Ramiz Raja was still the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket board. But that is not to be. I personally believe that we need to give the new PCB board members some time, and it doesn’t makes sense to assume that they’ll fail right away. Furthermore I believe that Pakistan’s government knows that they can revive their economy by inviting more team’s, hence I feel that they’ll make sure PCB member’s are diligently working so I’m excited to see what changes do the new PCB board members implement. |

Now as we are watching Ten Haq is doing good experiment for the increasing performance and having better use of his players is giving him good result hopefully things could be positive after end of this break
A new coach usually brings some positive effects but in long run, after one or two seasons, effects can be nothing. Manchester United experienced it with many coaches from Moyes, Van Gaal, Mourinho too. I hope they will get a different effect from Ten Hag and get out of their crisis in a last 10 years. they could be able to have better results which will help them for having improved rank in league table even things are not easy for any team at the top, but this break is surely going to have big impact on league table, and we will watch few ups and downs for the teams Rashford is also doing amazing job and his contribution could be vital in near future for the success of Manchester United in Premier League.
If their players can bring their world class performances from World Cup 2022 back to Carington and Premier League, United can complete the season in top four. Topfour is a most important target for them in this season. It is a first brick for them to have an effective summer transfer and a successful season in 2023 - 2024. Now they are already in quarterfinal of the EFL Cup, and they are going to face Nottingham Forest in coming Premier League game, hopefully team will produce same performance and spirit which will help them for positive results.
LOL since when EFL Cup has become so important for Manchester United? Is it an indicator that their quality is decreasing too much. I believe the previous coaches never really understood what the club was and whom to buy, but in ETH case he actually spend lot's of time studying the club and then finally agreed to come onboard on his terms. Furthermore you’re right if Manchester United fail to finish in the top 4 then they won’t be able to secure any quality player’s in the summer transfer window, but as a die hard fan I’m confident that they’ll be able to secure an champions league spot for themselves by the end of this season. |

Karim Benzema deserve more years to stay in Real Madrid, because he has contributed so many things to make Real Madrid the most strongest team in the la Liga league competition. I believe, Real Madrid coach will consider some things they have achieved through the help of Karim Benzema to wait until he recover from his injury, since he has prepared his mind to resign from their international team. The major focus of Karim Benzema after recovering is the area to increase his goals so that those that think he cannot perform well after the injury can testify by themselves.
Real Madrid has begun the search for a striker to replace Benzema; do you believe he will be given a new contract if a new young striker is found? NO Real Madrid is a team that many young players aspire to play for, and I don't believe they will make room for old players because they believe they will have someone who can do better when given the chance. Furthermore, Benzema has been suffering from injuries, which may be due to his age, and he has not been a regular starter in this season's Laliga campaign thus far, and we all know that Madrid needs a regular striker to compete with Barcelona this season. Real Madrid has never given a long contract to a player over the age of 30, even though this player has contributed greatly to the team, El Real will only reward him with a one-year contract with an option for extension. Benzema still has a contract until the middle of next year, but I think he will at least stay until 2024. I believe that Benzema has two options i.e. try to find a new club and hope to secure one last big pay, or take a pay cut and stay at Madrid as a striker who’ll play from the bench for the 2023 - 2024 season. Furthermore Real Madrid have shown the door to Casillas, Ronaldo despite their legendary status, hence it’s only a matter of time before Benzema is shown the door too. |

Bayern already linked with several players like the goal keeper from croatia livakovic, goal keeper of argentina E.Martinez and bayern already rumoured to bring back alexander nubel from monaco. It seems like that bayern seeing injury that happened with neuer as the serious thing that needs to be solved as soon as possible. Bayern may get the new goal keeper in january. Im sure that if the main option must be to bring the alexander nubel back to bayern and second option was buying the new keeper that is having a good performance now.
the best possibility I believe is to buy the Argentine goalkeeper who is performing very well, Emiliano Martinez. although the option to repatriate Nubel also has a big possibility. but I think more about Munich will be strengthened by a new goalkeeper in the winter transfer market. if Munich doesn't get Martinez, the option to send Nubel back will be exercised. it all depends on the negotiations that will take place. 30-year-old Emiliano Martinez will make Bayern Munich even stronger. Emiliano Martinez is very experienced. And he can perform well without faltering under a lot of pressure. I would say one of the biggest reasons why Argentina became world champions was the amazing performance of Emiliano Martinez. He has performed well in every match. But will Aston Villa agree to leave Emiliano Martinez at this moment? Aston Villa may be persuaded to sell him if Bayern Munich offers a higher price. Emiliano Martinez has long duration contract with Aston Villa so he will be at this team for at least until 2027 so if Bayern want to gets him i think they should be release his clause of contract and reported he has 25 millions euro into his contract and possibly this price will be higher considering he was performing well on world cup and indeed he might be will suitable as Manuel Neuer replacement but i don't think Bayern will spend a lot of money to the player with 30 years old so i personally considers this will never happend moreover Bayern had limited budget to buy goalkeeper so if they feel Emiliano Martinez overprice Bayern might be will looking for another players @bering Bayern has hinted the obvious solution is Nubel, but Monaco will have the final say on his departure hence we’ll have to wait to see?. Furthermore Bayern have no interest in getting Livakovic, hence that’s one transfer we can rule out from ever happening but whoever comes will have to settle for the bench whenever Neuer is back. |

BREAKING NEWS
Zizou Zidane is reportedly seriously considering an offer to coach Juventus. Zidane has rejected an offer coming from the Red Devils (MU), of course this will be good news for all Juventus fans, if this rumor is true then it is worth waiting for the developments. A bit surprised to see that zidane tried to consider offer from juventus rather than MU? i don't know why but it seems like that zidane has a personal problem with MU and that makes him rejected an offer from MU. Zidane will able to be a good coach in EPL and compete with so many great coaches in EPL. I never think if zidane will consider juventus as the next club to be coached after real madrid. Juventus itself was still facing financial scandal since it got audited and it has not yet finished. Zidane was taking a big risk if he take offer from old lady. Surprising news from the top of the Serie A standings this season, Napoli just suffered a defeat in trials last night, and suffered a crushing defeat to their guests from French club LOSC Lille, of course it is not surprising that Napoli's weakening appearance after the World Cup ended, will be capital for the club Serie A club to prevent Napoli from getting the Scudetto this year..
It seems like that napoli has been losing twotimes on the friendly matches which were not good at all. The fact that if napoli may even lose some key players and i think that's gonna be a very problem for napoli. Will inter beat napoli easily? @X - ray in a way I’m glad that he didn’t come to Manchester United, because he would have build the team around Ronaldo and that would have been bad for the club and as far as the Juventus links are concerned it’s yet hearsay so I would not pay much attention to this rumour unless he himself confirms this. Lastly I would not pay too much attention to these friendly results as in these matches player’s often don’t give their best, and when they play in the league I believe that they’ll continue their fine form as seen before the break and they’ll probably win the league title too. |

maybe psg can take advantage of the weakness of the injuries that hit the bayern munich players. Sadio Mane and Neuer, the two main Bayern Munich players, had to rest because of the injuries they had. It's hard to say that Bayern Munich will be able to provide a good fight in the match if we look at the very strong PSG squad this season. but the match on the pitch will be the answer in 90 minutes. but my prediction is that psg will be able to win this match because psg is stressed by the owner to be able to win the champions league and messi, mbappe and neymar will definitely answer that pressure by giving victory in every game.
psg is a club the majority of their players are very qualified of course the game between psg and bayern munich will be like the fake final presented earlier in the champions league this season.
Bayern Munich faced dilemma with two main player are injured, Manuel Neuer have confirmed absent with Bayern Munich until end season after his leg injuring, but for Sadio Mane not official confirm yet how long he need time for recovering, will ability for Bayern Munich against PSG in Champion League or not. I think PSG have advantage if Bayern Munich missing thier main player actually with Neuer, but have rumor with Croatia goal keeper Dominik Livakovic will replace position by Neuer if reach agreement deal for transfer. @ginsan while it’s true that Bayern have injured player’s but PSG too have problems of their own as Mbappe will be psychologically effected and that could harm PSG chances of winning. Furthermore even with these injuries I feel that Bayern will put up a strong fight, and PSG will have to hope that Mbappe and Messi can work together otherwise they’ll find it difficult to win this fixture. |

I believe the problem with Bangladesh and other Asian countries women cricket team is the lack of support, and unless that changes we won’t really see them improve anytime soon. Furthermore New Zealand women’s cricket team is on the right track, and if they continue to further improve then they can definitely replace Australia who’re currently the number one team in woman’s cricket. It is about finding the right talent and giving more opportunities for the Women's. National Cricket board cannot do everything, it starts with having clubs and then to zonal and then preparing them to play in the big leagues and the opportunity to make huge amount of money is not there either and there are a few clubs that have Woman sporting events like Cricket and hence the selection pool is really small and when that changes we can see the real change  . As said, national cricket board can't do everything. But, it needs to take initiative supporting the Women's cricket. This lacks in the Asian countries and the same makes it a tough thing for the right candidate to reach the position. As suggested reaching through the clubs is good, even in that women won't get opportunity easily. This is how the boards were acting. To be frank, in every sports someone expects adjustment when it comes to women. When this changes, everything changes. Nothing offensive, just the reality with everything sporting. In the Asian Countries cricket board mostly invest on the men cricket team. They don't look at the women cricket team much. They practice with some equipments. Therefore the mostly Asian Women cricket teams don't practice much as compare to others. Cricket board give them opportunity to play with low budget. I think this may effect on the performance. I personally believe that once the WIPL begins woman’s cricket will forever change, because suddenly the boards will realise how many advertisers are willing to pay for woman’s cricket and that’ll encourage many Asian countries to invest more for woman’s cricket development. However I don’t expect major progress in 2023, but I strongly feel that by 2025 we will see major changes in woman’s cricket and finally I hope that they get the respect and recognition that their male counterparts usually get. |

PSG is really lucky to have both of them in one team. Messi and Mbappe were absolutely outstanding during the World Cup but of course there can only be one winner and one loser in the end. Meanwhile, the collaboration between Messi, Mbappe and Neymar has so far been quite good at PSG. This season Messi is of course different, he feels better and I think that is a feeling he has really proven.
In the last 15 matches, Messi has only played in 13 and he has managed to score 7 goals and 10 assists. His contribution has been more prominent than last season, so it will be great for him and PSG. In total, PSG has scored 43 goals in 15 matches, and I think the collaboration between the three of them will be even better this season.
Attack at PSG has always been very strong, it was the same until the final and remains the same, but in the team all positions and interaction between the players are important. PSG have not had rivals in Ligue 1 for a long time, they play without real competition in such a situation it is difficult to develop, they are constantly in a state where everything is fine and the only stress is the Champions League. Maybe that's not enough to win? @ShowOff if you remember we had discussed what would be their chemistry once they’re back, and while I felt that both would act as professional’s but now I feel that Mbappe would be sulking because he’s young and I believe that he will no longer be comfortable playing with Messi, because it’ll always remind his of his lost chance. Furthermore there’s already rumours of him announcing his exit, but these could also be the media trying to gain viewership from making clickbait titles hence I’ll be keenly watching their behaviour when they return on the pitch. |

lewandowski seems to have never played in the europa league before because he always played in the champions league with bayern munich and maybe this is the first time for him to explore the europa league competition with barcelona. There is no doubt about Lewandowski quality because he has been able to make a big contribution in every game he has played with Barcelona this season. So, for this season, the fans hope to see that Lewandowski is able to present a trophy for Barcelona.
He won Champions League with Bayern Munich, won Bundesliga with Dortmund and Bayern Munich. Now he is chasing for La Liga and Europa League with Barcelona. Champions League is bigger than Europa League but it is not bad to have Europa League in his list of achievement. Each cup has its own meaning and value. Barcelona is good enough to be competitive in Europa League and Lewandowski can win it with them. Lewandowski has been motivated to tries to add his trophy collection to his library, Uefa Europa league is one he doesn't have which I think is a big desire to create many goals to Barcelona. But, the age factor is one condition he must think if want to continue in europa competition because there is a opponent that has golden age player who can be as competitor. Barca also have the attacker who can replace him any time if can give a contribution like Dembele, Raphinha, Depay and Torres.
At his old age and with less competitive of Barcelona as parts of their crisis, it is unrealistic for Lewandowski to win Champions League with Barcelona. Europa League is a more realistic and reachable aim for him. Winning one more cup in Europe and winning a golden boot in Europa League are not bad for Lewandowski before he ends his career. @Google+ I doubt that he can help Barcelona win in Europa, because as we saw last time Barcelona player’s were demotivated to play in the Europa league. Furthermore Manchester United are a formidable opponent who know that they need to win the Europa league to secure champions league football, hence I feel that they’ll work on neutralising Lewandowski and thus I feel that he won’t be able to help Barcelona much in the Europa league. |

In this Test Championship title, Pakistan's results have been disappointing. According to Babar Azam, the bleak performance of their pacer against England was due to the fact that their best pacer isn't working. I disagree, as their poor management and captaincy contributed to their poor performance.
After this 3-0 defeat, what about Pakistan's chances to make a spot in the final of test championship? They could make on their own by winning all the remaining test matches or need to depend on others' results? As of now, India and England might get qualified for the final in my opinion as they are the only two teams who are consistently performing in test matches both home and away. -Pakistan virtually has no chance. -Poms are already out and it was their last Test series in this cycle. -Indians are in a contest and need 4 wins out of the remaining 5 matches. -South Africa could also fancy their chances and need 3 wins in the remaining 4 matches. -SL also needs to whitewash NZ and win the away series 2-0. @JSRAW from the current scenario I agree that Pakistan are definitely out, but India is going to be missing Rohit hence they will have to cope well in his absence. Furthermore I doubt that SL can whitewash New Zealand, but if they manage to spring an surprise and upset New Zealand then that’ll be a big turning point for them as they have performed poorly in the last few year’s. |
