Again and again Chelsea are keep sign new player, the recent transfer is Andrey Santos which is unknown player from Vasco Da Gama, he only played for 1 match without score any goal or assist in this season lol [1]. Chelsea spent for 12.5 Million Euro for this player, I think it's too much for new player that haven't shown any good performance.
This make Chelsea is the top club who spent a lot money than the other clubs, the interesting thing is only Manchester City is able to make profit in the top 10 most money spent clubs [2]. If Benfica make a deal to let Enzo Fernandez join to Chelsea, it would make Chelsea spent for total 464 Million Euro currently in this season!
A club with large finances can afford this, but it is not clear why they choose such a policy, perhaps the reason is that they do not have their own good football school, so they are forced to buy young unknown players who can become useful for the club in the future, and it is also possible to sell them in the future for a much higher price. But 12.5 million is probably really a lot. And as we can see, spending big money does not bring Chelsea any results, they are already in the middle of the standings.
12.5 millions were non sense rate for an amateur player like him. It seems like that chelsea was trying to gamble and it's not even wanna try to stop.Chelsea has become so crazy by gambling with so many players.
It keeps wasting it funds even further. Chelsea was a team that keep burning the owner's money without any good result unlike another team. Manchester city was buying the new player effectively unlike another top coins in EPL.
Newcastle was also spending so much money too under eddie howe

I get it that they might need to buy young players and nurture them from a very young age. But what I do not understand is why would a club is going to pay $12.5 million for a new player!!

There is absolutely no reason for them to pay such a huge amount for such a new player. I am also quite sure that they could have gotten this player for a lower price if they wanted. And this trend of Chelsea buying players at huge amounts of prices, prices which probably they do not deserve has been going on for quite some time now.

Juventus will host Udinese this week. Seeing from the last few matches of Udinese they have had a bad record and have not been able to gain points in a row. Meanwhile, Juventus have a very good winning streak. This is an opportunity for Juventus to take advantage of seeing the performance of their opponents, and make this match a match that will extend their winning record. And winning is important to stay on track to be close to the team that is above them at the moment.
Juventus' next match is going to start in a few hours. Juventus are currently performing well and their XI is very strong. Hope they will win this match by a big margin.
Udinese was an easy opponent for juventus. The match will be starting very soon but i can even feel juventus will be winning against it easily. As you can see that there are so many people were aware about how bad performance from udinese. 4 draws and 1 lost from five matches. That was making juventus looks so bad at this moment. I guess that if juventus will fully dominating the match against udinese.
Let's see how many goals will be made by juventus but i personally predict that juventus will be making at least two goals against it.
Udinese is not bad, but Juventus is currently in good form. of course Juventus will be more favored in this fight.
especially now that Udinese is experiencing inconsistent performance problems. this affects their position in the standings which continues to decline.
maybe 2 goals for Juventus would be good enough.

The match is going to start in almost 2 hours from now on. Juventus should be able to win this match. Juventus won their last match. And they should also be confident that they are going to win this match as well.

On the other hand, Udinese does not have even one win in the last five matches compared to 5 back-to-back wins for Juventus. I do not think Juventus is going to lose this match under any circumstances. Juventus is going to be very determined to win this match as well otherwise, they are going to fall behind in terms of the race for the title.
1223  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people store their cryptocurrency on exchanges? on: January 07, 2023, 02:22:52 PM
I think exchange wallets have much better security than a hardware wallet. Accessing an exchange's wallet requires the entrant to go through a number of steps and security to access the wallet that is not seen in other hardware wallets.  To access the hardware wallet, an external software is required, if for some reason your device is infected with a virus or other technical problems occur in the device, but you will not be able to access your hardware wallet very easily.  That is why most investors or crypto currency holders consider it safer to keep their coins in exchange wallets.

To be fair, both have pros and cons, and there's no such thing as absolute safety. But I disagree with your statement that leaving assets on an exchange is more secure than a hardware wallet. The exchange is a place where a lot of assets are concentrated, so it is always a target for hackers, so storing it on it is much riskier than cold wallets, not to mention other problems such as bankruptcy or frozen assets suddenly.

In short: there are certain risks when using cold wallets that require caution, but leaving funds on centralized exchanges is riskier because once our assets are stored there, we will no longer have full control over our assets.

There is nothing wrong with selling unnecessary assets to invest in bitcoin.

The more important thing you need to care about is the knowledge to invest, I think you need to have a basic understanding of bitcoin such as how to buy, sell, and store…to get started. Investing in bitcoin is not in a hurry because just one small mistake can lose all the money you have which cannot be reverted.

My sincere advice, since you are inexperienced in the market, after selling your motorbikes, you should only invest in bitcoin. Refrain from being curious or greedy to invest in altcoins, it will make you lose heavily.

ATM definitely plays worse than they should, but just because they had a half a season of bad matches doesn't mean they should sack their manager right away. This is the same manager that took them so far both in the league and in the UCL as well, and they recently got a title as a team too, so its still a great team. What they need to do is build a good team once again, with the same manager. Teams keep the players and change the managers too frequently because its cheaper, but I think if you find a good manager, give him funds to change any player he wants with that funds, and keep the manager instead.

It is true that Atletico Madrid is not playing as well as they should be. It is strange, the team has performed better under the same coach before. But, my opinion is, just because the coach had success before, it does not mean he is going to find success now.

Probably the techniques that he is trying to imply with this squad are not optimal. Obviously, the team also might need some changes. But I think a change of authority can be good for the team as it will give the team a fresh start.

And what if they do get players on the team but the results do not come? I think it is a better decision to take a chance with a new coach instead of just finding the old one.

I attended a burial of a well known criminal in my hometown because he was a relation. He was involved in kidnapping, armed robbery and all sorts of criminal activities. When it was time for the funeral eulogy, many people came up and spoke about their relationship with the deceased. All of them spoke of his kindheartedness, generosity, love, kindness, etc. Nobody ever mentioned about his bad character or criminal activities.

This funeral made me recall that I have never attended any burial where people speak about the true character of the dead. They only speak good things about the deceased. Are they scared to speak evil about the dead or is there a tradition that forbids people from speaking bad against the dead?   

In my opinion, death is the end, so if you speak ill of them, they will no longer listen, and if you blame the dead, who have no ability to resist, you are no different from the bad guys, and no one wants to be the bad guy. Crime does not mean he will be cruel to everyone, I believe he still has his family and he will never treat them badly. The people who attended the funeral were mostly just his relatives, so it's no wonder you can't hear bad things about him.

If you see a new project and you are tempted to invest in it you are stupid because new projects require tough research first, there is a chance that the project is a scam so before clicking the buy button you have to be sure what you are getting into.

Developers are here to make money, let that sink into your head, if we turn the table around and you become a dev yourself will you work for free? So it's always about the money.

I disagree with the fact that only stupid people are tempted to invest in a new project.

Agree, not all new projects are scams, you should remember that projects like ETH or ADA, and LTC... have all been new projects before and those who invested early in those projects are now just as rich as those who invested early in bitcoin. However, we should be aware of the fact that the market does not have any friends, all it has is its competitors, they win and we lose, and vice versa. We are all here for the money, if you can't take their money, they will take your money, and the money will go from the weak to the strong.

Just as everybody, we want more adoption and price becomes more stable in a manner that volatility isn't going to be a negative factor anymore.

I agree that if bitcoin is more widely accepted, it will be good for bitcoin and will benefit us more, but in the hope, it becomes more stable, I really don't think that's good for bitcoin.

Apart from technology, bitcoin is attracting more users and investing in it thanks to its volatility, if it becomes as stable as gold, then that will be good news for bitcoin users. But that would be bad news for investors, and it should be more realistic that most of the people here are investors rather than people who prefer to use bitcoin as a means of payment.
1229  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should your wife or husband know your seed phrase? on: January 05, 2023, 09:06:32 AM
I don't think so no. Apart form them being able to steal them there is the quite easy possibility of them losing it or being stolen for them

What are you going on about? Have you thought about the possibility that your seed phrase could also be stolen from you or you could very well lose it yourself without any help from your spouse.
If those are your only reasons on why your spouse should not know your seed phrase, then I think those are somewhat stupid reasons. A marriage where the trust or love levels isn’t high enough to reveal your seed phrase to your spouse  isn’t a marriage I would want to be in.

I don't even think it's marriage, I've never seen that when two people fall in love and get married without trusting each other, it's an insult to the sacred of marriage.

I also have a family, and I have never hidden anything from my wife because what I am doing is for my wife and children, if they are no longer in this world, it is meaningless for me to own millions of bitcoins. If bitcoins are lost, I am confident I can afford to earn those bitcoins, but if my wife and children are gone, my life is over. Bitcoin cannot be compared to husband and wife or motherhood.
1230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 04, 2023, 04:18:13 PM
I wonder how Crystal Palace and Spurs will play tonight... The odds on Spurs are 2.1... But judging from the last games they might not get three points again today, although they need it... By the way, the last time Spurs won away in 2018... So I think it will be a draw tonight... I would bet on Crystal Palace not to lose at odds of 1.7...
The Spurs' chances of picking up full points against Crystal Palace seem unlikely. From the head to head statistics of the two teams when Crystal Palace hosts, they always get a draw when they meet Spurs. However, your betting choice is quite good considering that so far the Spurs have also been in poor performance.
I seemed to be confused on what's better option to go in the match between Crystal Palace and Tottenham. Of recent Tottenham has been performing poor after the World Cup. I mean would this be the match that they will come back to their good form? I doubt it that it could happen with Crystal Palace.

Without wasting too much of my energy thinking about the better option I decided to go for both teams to score and that is the only betting optionn I am sure.

My prediction is that this match is going to end with both teams scoring. But my opinion is Tottenham is obviously better compared to Crystal Palace.

So I said the match is going to end with a 2-1 scoreline in favour of Tottenham. I know that Tottenham has not performed well in recent matches. But that is a big reason why I think they will be motivated to perform better and get all three points from this match. And I think that is the very reason why they are going to concede. So I do not believe that they will be able to keep a clean sheet, but there should be able to win the match.

It sounds as if no team can beat Real Madrid in Europe. Come on. We've heard this phrase too many times. We are also very confident that Liverpool can beat Real Madrid in the round of 16 even though most pundits say Real Madrid is too strong for Liverpool to beat.
The game of football is not like math, but what we know is that football is a sport that always emphasizes teamwork. No matter how strong the team is, there is a chance to win.
Let's say Liverpool can't get revenge in the UCL and Real Madrid go through to the next round, but we have to believe that there will be other teams that can stop their journey.
Some pretty basic things make people say Liverpool will have enough trouble beating Real Madrid. On a head to head basis, Real Madrid is still quite ahead of Liverpool, while the conditions in their respective leagues also slightly influence people in making predictions. That's why many football observers try to predict based on the results of previous matches, because this pattern is the most likely to be predicted.
But this time Liverpool have a little advantage, if they are able to take advantage of their home conditions to beat Real Madrid, because the first leg will take place at Anfield on February 22, 2023 and in my opinion Real Madrid will not qualify easily, in the semi-finals or the Champions League final this season.

For the past two seasons, Liverpool had the charm to defeat Real Madrid in the Champions League, but they were not able to accomplish this goal. The fact is that there is still a chance that they will be able to beat Real Madrid this season. However, I personally do not believe that this will also be the case this season.

As the season progresses, Real Madrid are looking more impressive than ever and Karim Benzema is in incredible form at the moment. However, if you take a closer look at Liverpool, you will see that they have also brought in new reinforcements, so maybe they have a chance as a result, but in my opinion, they have a 50-50 chance.
1232  Other / Off-topic / Re: ⚽ Football Injuries and Injury Updates! on: January 02, 2023, 02:04:15 PM
the chelsea match against bournemouth took its toll, one of chelsea's mainstay players had to be injured (reece james) even though he was recovering from a knee injury. chelsea is scheduled to play Nottingham forest at their home ground, potter needs to put someone right at the back-line to replace james, who is back injured.
It seems that the injury problems faced by Reece James are not that worrying, he has a knee injury and that will keep him out of action for up to 2 months. But Reece James' position has been replaced by César Azpilicueta who has the same position as right-back. As the host, Chelsea will certainly benefit greatly against Nottingham Forest at Stamford Bridge.

There is no doubt that Reece James' injury is a serious one as it is speculated that he will be out for at least two months as a result of it. It is worth noting that he has a suitable replacement in Cesar Azpilicueta, who was also Chelsea's first choice right back before Reece James.

The match against Nottingham Forest should not pose much of a problem for Chelsea. However, it's the injury to Reece James that Chelsea should be most concerned about. This is because two months is quite a long time, I think. You know, there are a lot of games to play during that time.
1233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: January 02, 2023, 01:32:23 PM
New approach and fresh squad but they still neglected Prithvi Shaw in T-20 tho.
He has proven in domestic cricket that he has the ability to score runs at a good rate but still the selectors have neglected him for both T20 & ODI series with Srilanka. I guess they are prefer players who have done well in IPL and are not considering those who have done good in domestic. Last IPL I do not remember Shaw doing good.
The kind of cricket Prithvi playing in the last 2-3 years (domestic +IPL). His name should be on the T-20 team's roaster every single time. He didn't make many runs in the last IPL but his strike rate is way too good (average of 28 with 150 SR) and he's an opener, miles ahead of Rohit/KL/Kishan as far as attacking cricket goes. 
Average does matter but SR is more important in T-20 and the way T-20 cricket is evolving, you can't afford to bring 3-4 players in the team with 40-50 averages + 130 SR. At best you can have only 1 anchor in the team.

I believe it is time for Prithvi Shaw to be given a chance. As far as I am concerned, I believe this guy is doing well at the moment, and he has also proven his worth in recent times. In any case, I was quite surprised to learn that he did not get any chance in the upcoming Sri Lanka series that is going to take place.

There is also another thing that is always perceived to be more significant in T-20 cricket than in regular cricket, and that is the strike rate. Although 130 strike rate is actually very favorable, so I have no idea why he didn't get the chance that he deserved, as 130 strike rate is actually very positive.
1234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: January 02, 2023, 12:56:28 PM
Newzealand looking good at the moment. The opening pair has already scored 80 runs. Tim Latham is on 42 and he might reach his half century. Conway is on 37 and both batters have a strike rate which is above 60.  Assuming these two continue till lunch Inam hoping a score of 200+. Pakistan not looking good at the moment. Their bowlers are unable to create any pressure at the moment.

New Zealand has scored 309 runs at the end of the first today and they still have four wickets in hand.

No, why do I get the feeling that this is going to be a test match which is going to be another draw?

I cannot say that New Zealand have faced too many problems so far in this test match. I hope the track changes its nature and going forward in the test match. Otherwise, it is going to be a problem for Pakistan again. So far New Zealand is scoring quite freely. I don’t know why the Pakistan Cricket board is so much hellbent on creating tracks like this.
1235  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will you buy more ETH after reading this ? on: January 02, 2023, 03:58:38 AM


I wouldnt put my money on eth in any way. I guess that investors will still be able to make money with, but its potential for dobbling investments I believe it was lost forever. Now that eth abandoned POW and is now fully POS it will become less and less attractive, and soon it may be replaced by something better and decentralized.

I don't quite understand why you think that the transition from POW to POS is a mistake. I believe that in the face of the growing energy crisis in the world, this is a positive change for the entire project in the long run.

ETH's move from POW to POS has absolutely nothing to do with the current energy crisis situation. The upgrade plan of ETH was launched 4 years ago, and after many delays, it was implemented the last year. Many people are skeptical of ETH as it becomes more and more centralized when moving to POS, but it is in ETH's favor. In addition to reducing gas fees, which is the biggest headache for ETH, the upgrade is extremely important for ETH in future block expansion. For ETH, I consider this a desirable upgrade, Vitalik Buterin knows what he is doing best for ETH. It is too early to conclude that ETH is not worth investing in when it is POS, keep in mind that many altcoins still use POW but they are all useless, unable to compete with ETH. If you need a decentralized coin, bitcoin is enough.
I Agree with you, Of course they have made countless of consideration what might happened if they transitioned into POS but at the end they have considered changing from POW to POS given that POW is hindering them and and also their users to make a progression to the project. Gas fees are number one problem with ETH and I'm sure when market gets a lot of traffic, Users are suffering from these ridiculous gas prices that we all consider when making a transaction. There are pros and cons on transitioning to POS and one of them is slowly becoming centralize. But I believe that majority users like gas prices low compared to being decentralized. It's my opinion and please don't compare this token to other coins that has cheap gas prices. ETH has it's own concept behind it.

I will give up ETH if it can't solve the problem of high gas fees because we have a lot of altcoins with cheap gas fees and faster transaction speeds than ETH. ETH has lost its decentralization, but in return it solves a lot of problems, so it can be said that this sacrifice is worth it. We cannot claim absolute perfection with ETH.

Regarding investment, ETH is becoming more potential when moving to POS, the supply of ETH is constantly being burned thanks to the new mechanism. In the long run, ETH will also become scarce, so a price increase is almost certain once the demand is high while the supply decreases.

Yes, Dortmund does need rich owners. Because without some rich guy owning Dortmund right now, they are not going to improve. The moment they will show some improvement, the club is going to sell the players that are actually playing well just for profit.
And that is something that has been going on for quite a long time right now in Dortmund. This has to change, otherwise, they are not going to be recognized as a competitive team in the Bundesliga. Which is almost the case right now.
Dortmund have made a lot of profit from selling their players. that is why until now, Dortmund is unshakeable. they do not need a rich owner, like the billionaires who come from Arabia. Dortmund has done a very good business, and we can see that there are many Dortmund players who have become stars. in this winter transfer window season or next summer transfer window, Dortmund will reap huge profits if their two players namely Jude Bellingam and Youssoufa Moukoko are released in the next transfer window and they will replace them with talented newcomers.
This is the business that Dortmund's management runs, because of that they don't rely too much on sponsors and selling match tickets. most importantly, Dortmund remains at the top level of the Bundesliga and always exists in the Champions League.

The thing is Dortmund is a very successful club when you think about the business that they are doing. Let me rephrase, they are not a very successful club when it comes to achievement. But they are a successful club when it comes to earning money.

Because they bring a player forward who is not relatively known. And they make him a really good player who can certainly attract some really big clubs. In the end, they sell him for a huge profit. That’s what has been happening in Dortmund for a long time. So, they have two options. They can continue making money by doing what they are doing. Or they can change the way and actually go for achievements.
1237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 01, 2023, 01:27:49 PM
It's a sure cycle for the dortmund rising star players to move out after a great years have been through , it's like they are doing the business really well and develop successfully many talented players over the past few years into a well transfer price tag , outstanding one to make money.
Dortmund was very professional in doing football busineses. Dortmund has been known to be a factory for the professional players. There are so many great players were coming from dortmund like haaland, lewandowski and many more.
It's just sad that dortmund risking it for having no trophy ;(
Dortmund has been exchanging it with bunch of money. You can easily get money from selling the players to the another team with high price. If you are aiming to get a trophy and you will get a prize for that. what's difference? dortmund knows the club has no chance to win the trophy. The management didn't wanna take a bet and try to play safe by selling the players with very high price.
@EdenHazard Dortmund need’s new rich owner’s, because only then will they be able to hold on to their best player’s and if that doesn’t happen then they’ll constantly lose their top performing player’s.

Furthermore it seems to me that young player’s know that they can develop well at Dortmund and accordingly they plan to leave for a bigger club post their development, and while we do blame Dortmund for selling but what if the young player’s don’t have any intentions of staying for long term and in that case is Dortmund really wrong to sell them?.

Yes, Dortmund does need rich owners. Because without some rich guy owning Dortmund right now, they are not going to improve. The moment they will show some improvement, the club is going to sell the players that are actually playing well just for profit.

Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou:

Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou as they look to bring in a replacement for Manuel Neuer. Bayern Munich are keep eyeing a move for Sevilla Goalkeeper Bono after World Cup heroics. Manual Neuer the best goalkeeper of all time is 1st choice of Bayern Munich at starting Xi but he has been ruled out for the rest of the season after breaking his leg while skiing following Germany's World Cup exit.German champions are keen to bring in someone to deputize for Neuer, and their sights have been set on Bono, according to German Media. Yassine Bounou would have a golden opportunity to make a better place at Xi for Champion League. But Bayern is not the only one to take an interest in the Moroccan Goalkeeper. Manchester United, Juventus, Real Madrid, and Barcelona should also link up with him but Bayern Munich is their strong favor because Bayern's CEO Oliver Kahn, who formerly played in goal for the club, is particularly impressed by Bono.

If there is any news I am interested in right now apart from Ronaldo transfer news it is this  news, I have developed a kind of likeness for this Moroccan goal keeper Yassine Bounou who was very impressive in the world cup and I would love to see him make a move to Bayern Munich where I will be watching him play in the Champions league and competing against top teams in Europe.

I have no idea which steps Bayern Munich is going to take. Because this is certainly going to be a downgrade.
From Manuel Neuer to Bounou and Bono is certainly a downgrade. I hope they know what they are doing

Why do they not bring in Emi Martínez? That could be a really good step taken by them.
But as far as I’m concerned, I don’t think they are going to bring him in because EMI Martinez is exceptional when it comes to stopping penalties.
But in a normal match, he is just another average goalkeeper.

To be honest FTX happened when bitcoin was already at 18-19k levels, got up to 20-21k when people heard Binance may take over, and then crashed to 16k levels when that failed, but the price was at around 18k or so before that. Right now we are above 17k, which means we haven't fallen even 10% since that day, barely 5% to be fair, probably less.

This is a huge proof that, we dropped from 68k to this price, hence FTX can't be responsible for anything at all, all these other names, other companies, or ftx, nobody is responsible for it. Bear run started last year and whatever caused it was the reason and since then we are still feeling the waves of it, that's it.

It makes no sense to try to conclude who is responsible for bitcoin's drop, because without Luna or the crash of FTX, there would be other names. Don't forget that, after every bull cycle and hit ATH, bitcoin drops in price and crypto winter come, it's been proven in the past and this year was no exception. Instead of finding out who the culprit is, look at it and learn for the future, the market will repeat this. After a bull season comes a down season, and in a down season, there's always a reason to make the market worse.

The upgrade plan of ETH was launched 4 years ago, and after many delays, it was implemented the last year. Many people are skeptical of ETH as it becomes more and more centralized when moving to POS, but it is in ETH's favor. In addition to reducing gas fees, which is the biggest headache for ETH, the upgrade is extremely important for ETH in future block expansion. For ETH, I consider this a desirable upgrade, Vitalik Buterin knows what he is doing best for ETH. It is too early to conclude that ETH is not worth investing in when it is POS, keep in mind that many altcoins still use POW but they are all useless, unable to compete with ETH. If you need a decentralized coin, bitcoin is enough.
