Man united team will officially play the champions league next season after beating chelsea 4 1 in yesterday game really poor performance from chelsea both against man united and this season, lampard will likely be replaced as soon as the season end, the chelsea management should be carefull in selecting the next coach since i think its their main issue and the fact that they lack a good striker was really holding them down.

Lampard was just supposed to be the caretaker and I don't think he has what it takes to actually take Chelsea to the next level, Chelsea has suffered many loose but, but a lot of Chelsea fans think that Kepa is the problem of Chelsea even at that they are plenty loosed opening very bad defense with this there will be a lot of pressure on the keeper, the best advice for Chelsea they really need to restructure, they could not even hold manchester united yesterday they had more ball possession which does not matter but the goals. Due to the fact that several clubs are already taking shape, the upcoming season promises to be intriguing.

There is an opinion that the more money you spend, the more you get in return, it is interesting to find out who really works in this direction. I spend enough money, but I have a fixed income, therefore I will not be able to get more. I don't have rich relatives, and I don't expect an inheritance either. I want to get rich, not to deny myself, but I have to save on everything. Who really faced big expenses and received even more? How does it work, maybe I don't understand the essence of it correctly?

I strongly disagree with what you said about the more money you spend, the more you get in return since you will want to  make your life more comfortable, and if not that you spending to invest like they say you use the money to make more money, looking at the rich they spend on luxury to match with their wealth and for status so there is no way you will have money and not want luxury, so has you spending don't just spend on your lifestyle but you should spend on investment no matter how little before you end up spending on your lifestyle. and go back to square zero.

Congratulations to man united today make a big win for the club, even though chelsea has become an easy meat for most of the clubs around, and for Manchester United to have won over Chelsea shouldn't be seen as an excellent performance since Chelsea is already weak.

A Manchester United victory over Chelsea was a foregone conclusion, so it wasn't really a huge deal. This is one of Chelsea's worst seasons because the team is now broken and gets fucked whenever they face any club. They really need to focus on that team because Manchester United took advantage of Chelsea's inability to defend itself to score more goals, winning the game 4:1 with nine shots on goal to Chelsea's five. I'm sure Chelsea will be praying for the season to end because the humiliation is just too much. Chelsea needs a good coach and also need to buy potential players. If not they will continue to be humiliated.

a side job or business, of course, aims to be able to improve finances, if we have done a side job or business but the income doesn't change, then there is something wrong with what we are doing, maybe the side job is ineffective and just a waste of time, or expenses are greater than income , as I experienced when I took a side job as an apartment marketing which can be done on holidays or weekends, unfortunately I have go to the mall for promotions so that makes the expenses increase.

A side job or business is not a terrible idea at all, but both can enhance your financial situation. Anything that will bring in money matters, but operating a business in an economy with high inflation carries a lot of risk.  Earnings can't even keep you afloat anymore because everything is getting more and more expensive. I respect individuals who have wives and children because it's damn hard to take care of them and talking about feeding and other maintenance isn't even humorous. And if you're searching for a side job, I believe you should search for one that pays better because it will at least help you financially, albeit the higher the salary, the more complications there may be, Thats life for ypy.

-snip-
How do you see the father? Was he right by rejecting the son gambling win?


Maybe his father was a religious person in whose religion gambling is illegal, and he was not wrong to refuse the money his son gave him. The child should also understand that his father, even though he is a poor person, still upholds the moral principles set by his religion and his son should respect his father's decision to refuse the money he gives. Because not all poor people in this world want to receive money from illicit proceeds, even though they need money, and maybe their father is one of those people and to be honest, I really salute his father for sticking to the teachings of his religion by not receiving any money from gambling.

As much as the father appears to be religious and believes gambling is sinful, I think he finds it to be incredibly humorous. However, everyone has a right to their own opinion, so if the man does not want the money that is OK. Despite the fact that it is challenging to win and that after winning, you ask me to return the money. Except if you become hooked to it, gambling is not something I view as wrong once you become addicted, it may wreck you. And if the child is an adult, I believe he should be given the freedom to decide for himself whether or not he wants the money, rather than the father imposing such a choice on his behave.

Chelsea simply wants this season to be over! We can see this in how players reacting after they concede a goal and I think this team really deserve a reset and a well time summer break when they could figure out what really went wrong and what they need to improve for next season.
United is locked for UCL and I had doubts at some point that Liverpool might snatch that last place but I'm glad they did not as United can make a great run in UCL but they are nowhere near to have chances to actually win it. Grin Grin

Chelsea's performance this season has been very disappointing. Chelsea continues their poor performance. I don't think Chelsea will do well against Manchester United. As usual, we see Chelsea's poor performance today.

Chelsea trailed 2-0 at the end of the first half. Manchester United went ahead with Casemiro's goal just 6 minutes into the match. And in the 45+5th minute, Anthony Martial's goal gave the team a 2-0 lead. United are unlikely to drop points in this match. Because Chelsea's players are not playing well. Their performance seems to me to be completely aimless.

From the start of the game, I already knew that Manchester United was going to defeat Chelsea. Chelsea is lacking in terms of midfield and defense, and once those aspects are impacted, there is something seriously wrong with the structure. Chelsea have failed this season and have caused more heartbreak than expected to their fans. Manchester United is dominating the game and the current score is 3: 0 without giving Chelsea the slightest opportunity to score. The joy among the Manchester United supporters is just funny. Casemiro scored a fantastic goal after just six minutes of play. And they want to set more objectives.

If I'm not wrong OP should change the way he introduce bitcoin to new people. Atleast prior to introduction we should understand what kind of people we're talking with. Not everyone have the mind to accept it, when they've got good sum of fiat. Maybe thats the reason why uncle keeps saying something against bitcoin. It is always necessary to make some connect with the public regarding bitcoin. One should not expose that he's bitcoiner. We should simply introduce about the existence or while discussion happens relative to technology.

You make a valid point that we should think carefully about to whom we introduce bitcoin because many people don't care much about making money and believe that everything is ponzi scheme. I have seen situations where people start blaming the people who introduced them because bitcoin hasn't yet lived up to their expectations. Despite how interesting it is to invest in bitcoin it also has its own risk. And the majority of wealthy people don't think investing in bitcoin is important. In my opinion, investment in bitcoin should be based on what everyone understands and should be a personal choice.

I just think that Manchester City is unlikely to play aimlessly today. Pep Guardiola will try to maintain his winning streak even though Brighton will be a tough team to beat. Manchester City have been safe so far, but they have to be very concerned about good games and positive results going into the FA Cup final and Champions League final.

Manchester City have won 12 straight games since being forced to a 1-1 draw by Nottingham in February. If Manchester City manages to beat Brighton, it will be their 13th successive win in the Premier League. I agree there is a possibility of a draw if Brighton really wants to win at home.

Pep Guardiola knows what he needs to do what is certain is that he will prioritize important matches whereas in the Premier League they are champions
I won't be surprised if they draw today or play with the second player because basically this fight is not important, Brighton might have a great chance to win today.

I just checked the line up, it turned out that Manchester City played the main squad, I didn't understand what Pep strategy.

The craftsman is still there. Guardiola always knows the best course of action to take in every situation, and the game is already progressing as you had predicted. They have already racked up the necessary points, so the manager does as he pleases. Losing to Brighton has no bearing on anything they are still the Champions, and Foden scored with Haaland giving the assist. The Manchester City players do not even worry about themselves because it is not worthwhile. Bernardo Silva had 1 yellow card. I just admire Manchester City even if am not a fan. They really did well everyone knows.

Op you really tried for telling your friend about bitcoin but before I understood what you were trying to convey there was not easy for me to understand them. Please read other people threads to learn how they structure and write their words. In this forum your will learn plenty things, and not only bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies.
Your friend was also serious to learn the blockchain and that was why he learned fast and invest on his own.
It's never easy to actually understand what it takes some time to understand the fundamentals, and learning how the entire Bitcoin ecosystem functions require a lot of patience, gradual understanding, and lots of research. For this reason, many people find it difficult to keep up with Bitcoin, they constantly seek out the easy solution. However, some aspects of Bitcoin are not that simple, but at the same time technical aspects of it. If you start investing and start having emotional breakdowns, you need to be emotionally stable. everyone trying to invest in Bitcoin should know the risk behind it.

As for Pep Guardiola, that will be a decision he will make. The reason is when he is successful with a club and brings the title they have always wanted, he decides more to leave the team, I understand that because of course he will try to find new challenges for himself. He doesn't want to stay in his comfort zone and keep wandering between one club and another. If Manchester City want to stay with Pep Guardiola, they must be able to convince this one coach. But again it will be completely Guardiola's decision.
Seeing how Pep enjoyed his journey with Man City, in the next 1 or 2 seasons he will still be with Man City. The reason is that without Pep Guardiola I am not sure that next season Man City will win the same victory. The management of the team under the control of Pep Guardiola is very structured and indeed the quality is adequate.

The only club that can take Pep Guardiola under any circumstances is Barcelona that's what Pep had said. His beloved club calling will always be fulfilled. And for the future at Man City as a whole, he will be extended. Don't just because Pep Guardiola has fulfilled Man City's dream doesn't mean he will just leave.

Guardiola has been managing Manchester City successfully for a while and has amassed reputable trophies. I'm actually impressed with Manchester City's performance, even if you're not a fan, you'll undoubtedly be impressed. The management of Manchester City has also been impressive for some, and they really did well, so they truly did work for it and they deserve it. Guardiola has actually provided manchester city with the best fulfillment.  so good luck to other clubs next season they should learn and do better than manchester city.

Brighton Albion Hovers at home with sights on playing the europa league next season, winning this game would be a step forward, bit would Pep Guardiola drop his best player's in this game or would he drop them on the bench to protect them for the Champions League finals and also for the Cup final against Manchester United.

Guardiola is always the one with the best strategy reserving most of the players for the champions league is insane the assurance of them carrying the premier league is certain already, the next trophy to bag now is the champions league against Inter Milan, even without using most of his player's manchester city will still win, for this season in most of the league's manchester city is the best. and I hope even arsenal will improve well next season after losing such a great opportunity of becoming champions.

Quote
Pep Guardiola would want to see his player's in beast mode ahead of the finals against Inter Milan and Manchester United, I don't see him losing even if he brings on his second eleven. But it'll be good for Brighton to win, they've transformed well into a great side ever since they had this manager was appointed.

I adore the Beast mood. Manchester City has very exceptional players who are also talented goal scorers. Even though Inter Milan is not a match for Manchester City, where they are confident they will prepare seriously against them even at that, it does not prevent them from winning. No matter how you defend, you cannot defend against Manchester City for an extended period of time because they will always find a way to get past your defense and score. Score one has allowed Manchester City to score more.

İlkay, De Bruyne, Haaland and Bernardo were on the bench in this match. However, they still managed to beat Chelsea and dominate the game. No doubt they have set the bar very high. We can say that they are the best team in the world right now. They did not even give the ball to their opponents in the champions league semi-final match they played with Real Madrid. They're like Barcelona with Prime Messi. Undoubtedly, they will be the best team in the world for a long time. I can't say anything about Chelsea. They need players who can take on the role of the leading player in the team. I don't know if Neymar can do this job, but there were reports that they wanted to transfer him for a while.

There's no way you can compare the now Chelsea team with the current Manchester City's squad even in the absence of those players you made mention De Bruyne, Haaland and Bernardo. Guardiola has build up the Manchester City team to a world class level, which every team out there will find them difficult to defeat, even at the European level. Chelsea was lucky enough to have conceived only one goal from City, I was even expecting a total humiliation of Chelsea's team at that game today.

Even Chelsea at that time cannot be compared to Manchester in any way, both historically and currently, and it got worse when Chelsea started to struggle. Even with magic there is no way Chelseawould have won, and Manchester City did not even use their entire roster to play; instead, they played without any pressure. Manchester City did not emphasize that they were the upcoming champions. We all know the Champions already, since arsenal  almost tasted glory they will definitely do well next season and buy more players.

Statistically 385,000 persons are born into different families across the globe, that's to say 385,000 offsprings come into this world everyday, just imagine all of this individuals having knowledge of Bitcoin.

The question becomes after acquiring the knowledge about this powerful digital currency (Bitcoin) by this group of people how many of them will purchase or invest later in other to keep it  running to get attraction of more interested fellows.

Adoption of Bitcoin starts with you and me and this is done by good publicity through appropriate channels making people to know what they tend to benefit as the market bum as well as the negative impact during the down- trend.

Bitcoin looks very unreal to non bitcoiners because of lack of publicity and awareness, just imagine educating your siblings, your children, parents and people you come across everyday about Bitcoin their would have been more interested investors than we have now, this would have enable Bitcoin to rise because of the market competition and HODL will benefit more in this kind of situation.

The price is not encouraging, and many people still seem uninterested, but they may not be aware that this is the best time to buy. You'll notice that once the price starts increasing, that's when you start seeing a lot of people interested in investing in bitcoin. The government made a great decision by investing in bitcoin when the bull run began, which should strengthen the country's economy even though El Salvador made cryptocurrency legal tender. Not everyone will still utilize it, however.  Since a few years ago, increased public knowledge has increased interest in bitcoin relative to earlier years. Nowadays, you can hear bitcoin almost everywhere and everyday.

Then again, Arsenal are trailing their opponents, and now the time left is not long. It's a shame that they actually have to lose stability when the league is at the end of the season, so they have to give up their position to be taken over by Manchester City. Maybe this is the impact of their mentality that they are not ready to defend their position strongly. The fans must be very disappointed.

I am very sorry that Arsenal missed the title after such a good start to the season. They were playing very well, but in the last 1-2 months their performance has dropped a lot and they lost points in very simple matches.
Manchester City, on the other hand, progressed without losing points for a long time and managed to become the champion. I congratulate them.
After the Arsenal match, the rival Nottingham Forest was freed from the relegation zone and will be in the Premier League next year Smiley
Arsenal had every opportunity to win Premier league but they still lose. Arsenal didn't only lose Premier league but europa league too. Arsenal was doing very fine in europa league but due to their poor performance they couldn't maintain their good performance and they still lose. Arsenal losing Premier league is like a shock to me.

Arsenal did concede to Manchester City despite having all the chances to win. By losing to teams that they can easily defeat and giving away points, Arsenal has made me consider quitting as a fan. This disappointment has persisted since the 2003–2004 season, when they failed to win any good trophies, and losing to Nothingham Forest today makes me feel as though I should have expected more from Arteta and Saka, and today just had a lot of funny games even Liverpool played draw, crystal palace also played draw against Fulham, people that placed there bets on draw will be lucky.

In the Champions League, Manchester City now has a lot of chances to secure the title. On the other hand, this team is performing very well in the Premier League. If they can secure the Champions League title, the young players in the team will instill confidence and there will be a chance to achieve great things in the Premier League as well.
Manchester City have at least secured their position to become champions in the Premier League, while in the Champions League they are struggling to get a safe position. Manchester City has players who fully support them winning several matches this season. In the Premier League, his position is still not safe because the points gap between the first and second positions is very close.

Even if Arsenal should win, the dream of winning the Premier League and facing Nottingham Forest is a cheap one for Arsenal. Manchester City truly did play their cards, Guardiola is a really good coach who knows how to manipulate circumstances. And they deeply disappointed their supporters, and since Arsenal hasn't been performing well lately and this should be Arsenal best season. This is, in my opinion, one of their best seasons. This is more heartbreaking than I anticipated, and if Arsenal loses to Nottingham Forest, I will know that they are not taking themselves seriously at all. Arsenal is currently down 1:0 I just hope they equalize and win the game.

Petty people are found both online and offline, one should stay away from them. It was woman's fault to bother with these people in first place, just like if you get scammed online, gullibility is to be blamed.
well blaming someone will never change the reality that we are loser in some time.
there are others that succeed while many are losing but still gambling continue to grow and that is because of the nature as we are excited and looking for higher chances  of winning.
I agree that we must blame gullibility and change this in future to not become addicted .
If we are unable to handle our loss in gambling we should not gamble in the first place only because we will always get sad or blame others for our loss so better stay away from it and keep your funds safe with you.There are people who will win and others loose as your luck will determine the outcome but you should not copy someone else and enjoy with your budget.

You've made a really valid point by saying that before placing a wager, a person should weigh the risk involved and get mentally ready because gambling has a much higher loss rate than win rate. I know of some individuals that gamble for a living and they are doing well, still wondering how they are doing it, for someone like me I only gamble for fun and am always pained when ever I lose since my mindset  is always set on winning always. Everyone gambling has different stories to tell about  gambling, some stories are actually very sad after they have sold everything just to gamble.

It is normal that we hold our crypto investment during bear season, because if we are going to sell in bear season we will surely end up to losing we need to hold till market recover for profit no one will loss if we don't sell at loss so it is important to hold and have a lot of pr ofit when bull market begin.

The best choice someone can make is to hold. It may not be an easy choice, but that's why I don't advise people to take out loans to invest in bitcoin because you can not actually forecast the price every single second. And people should find other ways to make money so that they won't have to worry about what they have invested in bitcoin. Many investors just focus on investing in bitcoin, which is bad for business because you could have to sell since you have no other options for making money. Investment in bitcoin is not recommended for those who are easily depressed due to the price, which has not been in anyone's favor for a while. Very soon everything will fall in place for does that have been patient.

Tottenham against Brentford the current score is 1-2, in the first half Tottenham won 1-0 thanks to a goal from Harry Kane in the 8th minute and lasted until the end of the first half.
and in the second half Brentfod managed to turn things around and the score was 1-2 and two goals were scored by Bryan Mbeumo in the 50th and 62nd minutes, Tottenham were statistically superior. But it looks like their defense is very weak because when Bryan Mbeumo got the ball, Tottenham's defense struggled to contain it.

A lot of clubs fucked up this season and a club like Tottenham has been beaten by Brentford, nothing surprises me again after Arsenal was beaten by Brighton, I expect anything from any club, and Tottenham is actually playing them even in time of ball possession Tottenham is dominating the game but Brentford is leading with the goals, and Tottenham having six shots on target and all been bounced how lucky brentford is, i was not expecting the game to go this way, is already sure that the game will end 3:1 since Brentford is restricting Tottenham from equalizing. brentford has added another goal they really caught tottenham by surprise.

In spite of the fact that many of us have neglected our mental health and that many people, particularly in this country, are struggling, no one is paying attention to it. However, since the majority of what you do is influenced by your mental state, we Nigerians don't view seeing a therapist as being particularly important. However, I think it is crucial that we encourage individuals to seek counseling and communicate to others about their feelings. When we express how we feel, it should help us feel better in some way as opposed to holding it in and having it consume us. Challenges is just driving everyone crazy.

What is the real difference between bull and bear market and how can one utilize them to make some good profits?

The bear market is a time that most investors dislike after making large investments and the market declines, as it is doing now. However, the market must experience both bear and bull these are the two market trends in order to reach equilibrium, in my opinion, the bear market can be a great opportunity if you know how to take advantage of it, by also accumulating many as possible.  you get more experience during a bear market, you do your own reach, and know how to deal with your emotions better is usually not easy when you see your funds going down after you have planned for profit Grin and bull run is the time to harvest your profit after a long waiting and holding and determine not to sell no matter what.
