this news was actually linked to last season's transfer when Joao Felix first arrived at Barcelona and the management said that if Felix appearance was very valuable for Barcelona, he would definitely make it permanent, but the problem is, as we know, Barcelona finances have not improved and require a lot of money to pay. taking care of the contract with Felix and I admit that Atletico Madrid will not easily give a cheap price but actually there is a very easy alternative such as selling Lewandowski to another team because this player is no longer productive, perhaps because of his age which is a little older even though the start of the season provides the performance is quite good and by selling Lewandowski Barcelona can make a profit and can sign a contract with Felix.

I have heard rumors that Lewandowski was given an offer from an Arab team but the player refused the offer from an Arab team even though it was a very valuable opportunity for both parties. Barcelona got big profits and Lewandowski also got big salary benefits there but unfortunately Lewandowski refused quickly.

I'm a little surprised why Lewandowski rejected the offer and prefers to stay in a european team, even though at his age he rarely needs players who have lost their productivity and this is a strong reason why Barcelona management wants to keep Felix rather than Lewandowski and I'm sure that sooner or later Felix will be better maintained.

I admit that Leverkusen is really in a very strong condition this season, having never been defeated in the bundesliga or even in other competitions. but I never thought that Bayern Munich would have difficulty catching up with Leverkusen because we know that Tuchel main goal is to bring his team to a higher level to win the title in the UCL and this is what causes Munich to seem to have difficulty catching up with Leverkusen points but we shouldn't think like that because both teams there is only a difference of 4 points, while Bayern Munich match against Union Berlin was postponed so the points are a little further apart or maybe if the match had not been postponed it would have been certain that Bayern Munich would have won and only had a difference of 1 point.

from this fact, I never thought that Tuchel would find it difficult to win the bundesliga title again, although I also hope that Leverkusen will continue to be at the top of the standings, but Bayern Munich is more experienced in terms of strategy to shift first place in the standings, while Bayern Munich has very great players.
so if Bayern Munich is having difficulty reaching the top of the standings, it doesn't seem to make sense.

this is the reason why I previously said a few weeks ago that Arsenal had not yet reached a more stable consistent point even though sometimes it looks strong at the top of the standings but that is only temporary does not mean it will continue to provide a very strong performance and indeed this would be a very shame because that I know that Arsenal is very weak at home, previously they were beaten by West Ham and yesterday they were beaten by Liverpool, whereas Arteta team is one of the popular teams that should be able to maintain the consistent performance of its players and if they can't score a win, it's better to hold a draw, it's much better. better than having to feel embarrassed at home which happened twice and it will be Arteta tough task to solve this problem and return Arsenal to its previous performance.

I see that Arsenal doesn't just seem to have lost control but seems too ambitious to want to score and win to the point that the defense players have to help attack the opponent's goal while the defense players don't see that the defense seems empty without strength which is very easy for the opponent to break through and some I've seen this happen several times in games.
very disappointed but however I already understood beforehand that in fact Arsenal would continue to experience weak consistency even though one day it would be surprising to be at the top of the standings but still I would never believe that the team would never be able to get the EPL title before having strong consistency.

this is the reason we are here to keep saying it over and over again and never get bored of reminding each other that keep trying to be a responsible gambler, set limits on yourself so you dont become an addicted gambler and this all must be really paid attention to and this negative impact changes very quickly. life for someone who initially lived a healthy life without addiction but became very bad when he became addicted.
always think about a healthy mindset, really appreciate the money we have and understand how gambling works, that it's all just entertainment, use small money to gamble and think of this small money as providing profits to gambling owners to be able to develop their business bigger and provide new game that can entertain us.

this is the kind of mindset that a gambler must have, dont expect too much from gambling because we will never be able to win big if we are not lucky, whereas big luck sometimes only comes once in a lifetime and all this can save us from gambling addiction.

Increasingly, I always hear about the craziness of gambling addicts as OP said and of course it is the relatives or family who bear all the burden of shame for this addictive gambling behavior plus he (the addict) borrows money from relatives which is never returned.
with this, let us continue to learn to gamble responsibly to become healthy gamblers.

I have said what you said before and indeed almost the majority of people who reply here definitely have the same thought that as long as mentally unstable people don't disturb other people when gambling, it doesn't matter, after all, the person also pays and takes money to the casino or at least it's as if buying food with real money and not scaring other people. but if the gambler is under mental pressure, even though he is carrying money and does not disturb other people, it makes other people uncomfortable, it seems like the casino should give them their own seat or send them away in a subtle way so as not to scare other gamblers.

however, I slightly disagree with your opinion about the most important thing being that casinos only need money. even though casinos need income from customers or gamblers, they also have a responsibility to overcome any problems that exist. If a gambler who is mentally unstable comes to the casino wearing clothes that are not suitable for use, it will definitely make other gamblers uncomfortable so the casino is obliged to give a warning fine or lend more decent used clothes so that the conditions in the casino are safe and comfortable.

return of Haaland and KDB has had a positive impact on Man City even though they have just recovered from injury, but Guardiola still provides the opportunity for these two players to join the field if he thinks they are truly capable of competing and Guardiola as coach does not want to force these two players to appear on the pitch. the field because it will have a bad impact and I understand a little bit that this is all Guardiola is doing because so that these players can really recover when the UCL match starts De Bruyne and Haaland will be able to perform optimally to help Man City beat every opponent that comes their way.

the match that will start against Copenhagen will certainly have a little doubt and fear if Man City mainstay players cannot appear in the match but we have to be sure that Copenhagen will be very easy to beat by Man City even though they will probably only get a narrow score when playing away from home but after that If Man City hosts the second match, Copenhagen will definitely be eliminated easily and I hope KDB will at least be present at the match.

Is anyone here betting on the Bayern Munich vs Basel friendly match? and did your bet win or lose?
I missed betting on that match but unfortunately I saw something a little strange in that match when Bayern Munich, one of the giant teams in the bundesliga, ended in a draw against a small team from the Swiss league and even more strangely, Bayern Munich always put pressure on shooting the ball repeatedly but didn't on target but only 1 shot was able to score. Aseko Nkili managed to score while Kane wasted several opportunities.

I'm sure many people lost if they bet on yesterday's match, the draw was very bad and I'm sure Bayern Munich didn't perform optimally because it was only a friendly match.

didn't really impress me and Chelsea performance didn't impress me because the opponent was just a weak team like Preston North End so it was very easy for Chelsea to score big in that match and that doesn't mean I discourage you from supporting Chelsea, it's just that I'm telling you about my honesty who is almost always disappointed with Chelsea performance in EPL matches but can appear very strong in FA Cup matches.

we'll see in the EPL match against Fullham whether Chelsea can perform extraordinary like this and I doubt it a little, but if they can beat Fullham I will admit that Pochettino makes a little change.

for me, Nacho own goal was not something embarrassing because it was very unexpected with Nacho intention to help secure Real Madrid goal, but unfortunately the ball hit Nacho foot very quickly so the ball bounced very quickly into the goal.
the next match will be against Atletico Madrid and I agree with your speculation that later Ancelotti will use his main players to beat Atletico Madrid and if later before the match starts but Ancelotti does not field his main players I am sure this will be a bad result between a draw or a loss because If you only use players like this it will be very difficult to beat Atletico Madrid who have a slightly stronger performance and I hope Ancelotti will field his main players.

It seems more relative if Real Madrid vs Barcelona because even though Barcelona is not very stable in terms of depth, Osasuna is not a comparable opponent to Barcelona and Barcelona will easily beat Osasuna.

btw, I just realized that Arda Guler was able to appear with Real Madrid in yesterday's match and was able to make a pretty good contribution even though he didn't score, he could at least put pressure on 3 shots.

today's Salernitana vs Juventus match is not difficult to predict because these two teams have competed previously in the Coppa Italia and from the results of yesterday's match we can predict more quickly that Juventus will still win even though Salernitana will put up resistance but I'm sure Juventus will beat them considering if Juventus is chasing Inter points and wants to win the title in serie A this season.
but I am sure that Juventus odds are very small because they are the favorite team and in my opinion it is not 3-1 but the match will end 1-2 for Juventus.

btw I was a little disappointed that Fiorentina couldn't hold a draw or at least beat Sassuolo because from the first minute I was sure that Fiorentina would be able to at least score 1 or 2 scores but it turned out that Sassuolo put up a really great fight and could even beat Fiorentina whereas I bet on Fiorentina over 0.5 but unfortunately I lost and my multi bet failed.

It's not surprising that Mbappe is still one of the players who will continue to be linked with big teams before he gets a new team because with the skills he has, it is very appropriate to be linked with big european teams, but actually I dont support Mbappe going to Liverpool because he one side of the team already has Salah who is considered a scorer and Liverpool actually doesn't need a striker but a central midfielder who they have to strengthen.

but actually, if we just imagine that if Mbappe joins Liverpool, it will definitely be a very strong collaboration because both players have a reliable talent for scoring scores, it will definitely be very convincing for Liverpool to fight for titles in several competitions, but in fact it won't be that easy because sometimes a player has different characteristics and this will make a team bad if Mbappe joins Liverpool of course Salah will not be a scorer anymore because of course the coach will favor Mbappe and this makes Salah a little annoyed because he definitely wants to have a big career by scoring the highest score and Salah could decide to leave the team and move to another team to get a bigger score.

the biggest win in history and I wouldn't do it for the reason that even though I have a lot of money I wouldn't give up $50 for one spin even though I saw a jackpot above $42m I wouldn't be tempted because "luck isn't sure to come"
as OP said, winning this big is very clear that it was just luck, betting with just $50, getting a very big and unexpected win
here I say about my honesty, it doesn't mean I'm a hypocrite, but the fact is that if I'm not lucky, for example, I have a budget of $5k with a betting amount of $50, even if my budget runs out, if I'm not lucky, I certainly won't be able to get a jackpot that big.

but if the concept changes to are you willing to bet $50 on one spin to get a guaranteed win of $42 I would answer very strongly that I would be willing to even one spin of $5000 I would be willing to do it if I got a guarantee.

but the question is, does someone who wins this victory still live on earth or has moved to another planet to buy their own country.

very good experience mate, you are a very wise bettor using the money from your winnings to buy something more useful instead of using it to gamble again.
I have to praise you because you are able to know the right time to stop betting and on the one hand you are able to have a strong commitment to limit yourself from betting again because usually this will be very difficult to control but you are able to fight the temptation.

the experience you share can provide an example to other people that gambling responsibly, knowing the right time to stop will give you a sensation of pride when you succeed in resisting any temptation in gambling.
and congratulations on your win, mate.

he was just telling stories and I'm sure that was more beneficial for him because he felt that having a small television in his house was no longer suitable and bought a bigger television so that when he was relaxing he could enjoy television that was worth watching and that was much better than having to gamble again but does not provide any guarantees.

on the one hand he also gives good advice if you use the winnings for investment etc. so for me the story that OP said is like advice for other people to use their winnings to buy something valuable for each gambler.

If someone here retired because they won at gambling, I think they wouldn't be here anymore.
a little funny but interesting when looking at the content of this topic, a gambler retires with gambling winnings. I'm sure they won't retire but will just rest for a few days and after that come back a few days with the assumption "who knows, I'll be lucky again"

what I know is that if a gambler who retires because of a gambling win will never be able to retire, in fact the win encourages the gambler to bet again with the mindset of wanting to win again, even though a gambler wins $1m, it does not rule out the possibility that he will be able to retire and this is a common problem that happens often and I'm sure someone here also feels the same way.

unless a gambler retires with the intention of wanting to stop not because of a win or loss but simply by his own will with great determination I believe that there is.

as I said, if Nice has indeed had quite good improvements since several seasons, they can achieve runner up achievements but that will only be temporary and I also admit that Nice performance is really very good, a little more consistent at the start of the season and almost surprised everyone with what Nice has done is that they can have great strength at the start of the season and end up experiencing a decline in performance in the second half of the season and if we want to see Nice in the UCL next season that could happen but I'm really not sure if they can get past the round group stage if you are in a group with a stronger team.

no matter how strong Nice is, it will only be experience and will never be able to get the League 1 title, but all of that can be achieved if you consistently stay in the runner up position for several seasons, gain experience competing with big teams, after that you can find a way to win the title in league 1.
and if next time Nice gets a ticket to the UCL and fails in the first stage it won't be a big problem because it's a valuable experience for a team to know its mistakes.

well, this is an important point in everything we are talking about here, that the reason gamblers continue to gamble even though they are losing is because they consider gambling like a hobby that can provide entertainment and of course with everything that has been planned not to spend too much money on gambling and obey the rules. predetermined limits.

of the several reasons why gamblers still bet even though they always lose, perhaps the most common and most reasonable reason is just what you said, because we would certainly consider it something ridiculous if a gambler continued to bet because he wanted to win, even though betting 10 times is not necessarily true giving a win even if you get a win will definitely not be equivalent to the losses that have been incurred.
therefore, considering gambling as a hobby may be one way to continue gambling safely but still have to adhere to the limits that have been planned so as not to gamble excessively.

for a gambler who has responsibility and strong self-control, it doesn't matter if gambling becomes a place to waste free time when lonely, but it is still not recommended because it can pose a risk which can ultimately lead to a feeling of addiction.
there are lots of ways to waste our free time so that we dont feel lonely but it all depends on each person's wishes because everyone has their own choice of how to entertain themselves but for me the most comfortable way to vent loneliness is just to go with family or find friends to go to a pleasant place. the reason I chose this method is only to avoid anxiety if we indulge in gambling too often which will affect our brain for the worse.

I support your opinion regarding balancing the time and money we have for gambling and this is the same as respecting money and time. am I right ?
a gambler who can value their time and money will never prioritize gambling but prefer to make the best use of their time to produce something useful rather than waste time on gambling and on the one hand, if a gambler can value every $1 he has, he will definitely always think more long before using his money to bet and choose to use only a very small amount and use the rest for something useful.

In this way, I am sure that a gambler can gamble safely without being addicted and still be a responsible gambler because in this way we have to get used to respecting the time and money we have so that it is not wasted in vain.

you make a very good point here.
I mean everything you say is an important point that really has to be paid attention to because usually the common problems that are often violated by gamblers are only related to KYC, deposits, withdrawals and country restrictions which are always the most common mistakes and I also do the same thing like you, when you want to register at a new casino, only read the important points you mentioned and very rarely waste time reading all the casino rules.

however, if you have a lot of free time and the casino you want to use will be your favorite casino, there's no harm in reading all the rules to better understand what can't be violated and what needs to be avoided and I also sometimes read all the contents of the ToS, but after reading half of it, I felt bored and continued placing bets.

of the several games you mentioned, everything still depends on luck, even though sportsbooks are the main choice for a gambler, but remember, sometimes a favorite team can be defeated by a weak team which is said to be a surprise. however, sportsbooks can be one of the things that have the lowest risk by developing your skills in predicting the chances of winning a match and you can win, for example, if you choose the smallest odds, even though you dont always win, you have a bigger chance of winning.
for example, in soccer betting, a match between a strong team and a weak team, you bet on a double chance of the strong team winning or drawing with odds @1.1, meaning you have a greater chance of winning even if your winnings are only a small amount.
but it is not recommended to do it this way because gambling parties dont like it if customers keep winning by choosing small odds and your account could be banned.

and there is still one type of bet that doesn't rely on luck, you just have to rely on your skills to win, namely poker. In the game of poker you can fight against fellow gamblers and you only need skill to be able to process your cards so you can win every round.
so this game is highly recommended if you want to get consistent wins but you have to have more skills.
