Sania Mirza is the one to bring tennis to limelight in India and throughout her career she is the No.1 Indian Tennis player and during the peak of her career in 2007 she managed to reach 27th World rank and no other women players from India is able to reach it. There are more young players, and we should also think the difference in competence between the year 2007 and 2022.
One thing I have noticed is there is lack of consistency and hard work in the people
Most people don't want to work hard. These stars and those who make a difference go an extra mile.
Sania Miza brought indian tennis to the limelight but after her marriage her career took a nosedive. She married a Pakistani cricketer and that is a big clash in her career too,

@romero121 I do remember those days but I never really understood why didn’t India produce another great star like her, and to be honest I don’t even recollect if there was any other Indian female tennis star besides her. Furthermore while her marriage was kinda controversial, but I don’t think it was the reason for her downfall rather I believe that it was her over confidence which never really allowed her to recover the heights that she had previously touched.

there is a separate fan base for test cricket. But the numbers are too small when compared to T20 or ODI cricket. I don't have an issue if test cricket remains in its place. But right now, it is overlapping with other formats. For example, a majority of the players who are included in the test squad are part of the T20 squad as well (I am talking about teams such as India). And these players spend more time playing test cricket compared to any other format.

Let's take the example of Virat Kohli. Last year, he played a total of 11 test matches (55 days), 3 ODI matches and 10 T20I matches. How can you justify a player like Virat spending 55 days on test cricket and just 13 days on limited overs cricket? Another example is that of Rohit Sharma. In his case, he played a total of 11 test matches in 2021, compared to 3 ODI and 11 T20I matches. 55 days of test cricket versus 14 days of limited overs. Does this make any sense?
This all is happening with few players those are involved in these all formats for long time now as time is running out we can watch few changes with mostly teams are having quality players for T20 and test format which are giving their best in separately which is good because in near future we can expect more changes with mostly big countries will have two teams and these could be done better justification as both could be able to give their best into their formats and boards needs to do one thing just give them salary packages which could be affordable for all as well.

Because IPL factor is surely having big impact and with this mostly youths are not interested in test and domestic cricket which is related to 3 or 4 days, and they love to have big contracts with IPL franchise which is more beneficial so if they are able to do these changes than surely we can bring good players in both formats which could be more helpful.

@Sithara007 ICC did try a attempt with the test championship, but honestly it feels like it flopped because the concept is too confusing. Furthermore ICC needs to move on from day tests to night tests, because those are more appreciated by the fans but even then the demand for test cricket is fading away and maybe ICC will decide in coming year’s to end this format and focus more on T20 matches which fans just can’t get enough of.

I think Barcelona should beat Inter Milan in this game. Inter Milan go into this match in a difficult situation, having endured their worst Serie A start in 11 years, sitting ninth with four wins and four losses.The two games in Milan and Barcelona are likely to decide the second place in the group behind Bayern Munich and Inzaghi is under pressure following a poor start to the season couple with the injuries hitting the team. I don’t think they’ll even get a draw in this game. I’ll easily tick Barcelona to win this game at ease.

Inter Milan lost the last two matches they played against Udinese and Roma, meanwhile, Barcelona won their two last matches. Inter Milan has a lesser probability of winning the match against Barcelona. But no team should be underrated in the champions league. I am predicting that Inter might put up a good fight because they still have a chance of qualifying for the next round.

It seems like that bookmakers have been seeing based from the track record by any team. Ajax has a better track record in the champion league compared with napoli. It has become the main consideration from the bookmakers. that's why ajax is much more favourable compared with napoli. It's caused by we are always seeing ajax participated in the champion league compared with napoli which has been rarely participating in the champion league caused by how competitive serie a these days is.
Im sure about this. Bookmakers are always seeing history from the team first and then performance from the team

For me, the best means and most population medium of predicting matches is current performance of the team. It is true that history has a way of reoccurring and sometimes it determines current happenings but from both teams' current performance, Napoli has a better chance of winning the match. Even without their main striker Victor Osimhen, they are still scoring more goals. The match would be played at Amsterdam Arena, which might give Ajax a little advantage but I don't see Ajax winning the match. The best they can have would be a draw.  

@Zlantann while there’s no doubt that Barcelona has a stronger team, but as we have seen before the favourites often fail in the champions league especially against team’s which are performing poorly in their league, hence I feel that Barcelona should be vary of Inter Milan and not assume that they’ll win the game easily. @X-Ray Ajax is an unpredictable team, and while Napoli is a giant I wouldn’t be surprised if both ended up playing a draw as both team’s would like to secure a point at least from this game.

It was really an unbelievable win by Manchester City. It was like they were nearly going to win by 6-1 actually. But Martial made a really good contribution after entering the match in the 60th minute by scoring two goals. I think that it was already obvious that Manchester United defense would be helpless against Haaland. It didn't matter how much they were in-form before this one. It is just very hard to stop this goal machine.

Today he scored 3 goals and made 2 assists. His second goal was another Zlatan-like goal by the way. It reminded me of the goal he scored against Dortmund but that one was more impressive of course.  Grin  He's scored his 14th goal in the 8th match. If he continues to score in nearly every single match I can't even imagine with how many goals he will have broken the record at the end of the season. It wouldn't be hard for him to score 40+ goals in this case.  Cheesy

@Pulsar77 in the initial 7 minutes right before the first goal I realised that City are going to score many goals, because they were easily dominating every area of the pitch and a big blunder on Ten Hag part was not to start experienced player’s like Casemiro and Shaw for this important game.

Furthermore if Manchester United ever want to compete with City then they need a player like Halland, but only Mbappe comes to my mind and I don’t think that Manchester United can afford him hence it looks like the title race this season is between Arsenal and City at least for now.

Hi guys do we have an ongoing Roobet Art contest? I think I missed it out hehe
it seems that there are no other contests held yet maybe the next event will be held again, I also missed it even though at that time I had prepared Art to be published in yesterday's contest but unfortunately it was too late, I think being active in this thread will help me to get any latest information about the latest contest from roobet in the future
I just noticed that they do launch out art contest whenever or basing up on a certain event or occasion or season most of the time, like Xmas, Season.
Usually you cant find those announcements on this ANN thread but rather it is on Services section and this is usually be handled out by Hhampuz.
Yes, it is true that this one is something interesting which you could really have the chance to win up but of course only to those people who
are really that good in art.
Even though there is no Roobet art contest now, I think there will be another one soon for the winter season which Roobet is going to give another chances for people that are interested in creating a artwork to put there ideas in making arts and submitting it for selection. There was one last for the winter with so much competition among different artwork submitted and the winners were finally selected.
Riobet and there team are really doing a good job providing opportunity for everyone who want to participate in the contest without restrictions.
Roobet is consistent in their art competition when there's an occassion or special event on their platform. It's been 2 years (if im not mistaken) since they started this competition here on the forum and it's really an opportunity for our artists here to showcase their talent. I think for the coming Christmas season they will launch an art contest again. It's a good promotion to have this contest because they're generous when giving prizes for the winners, one of the reason why Roobet became known as an established casino here.

@lienfaye if many user’s request for it then I’m sure that they’ll consider bringing it back, and till then user’s can let their interest be known here so they can know how many user’s are waiting for it. Furthermore in my personal opinion do not wait for the last moment to submit your entries, try and submit it at least one or two days before the competition ends so you’ll don’t miss it this time.

i have a freebitcoin account since 2018 and i reopened my account to start playing roll again there to get free bitcoin, i was recommended by someone to use an app on android like bitbot auto roll, my question for old users here is the bitbot roll app is correct really safe to use?
Cant see any complaints nor issues in regarding with this app.
As i have searched i do find out these videos which might give up even more idea about that app for auto roll.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoQbDfiFoxg
Another link
As long it doesnt really require some shady permission into your mobile then it should be fine.I havent tested out yet.
I've tested it today and it looks very safe, I also don't see any complaints using this app, thanks for the video information and link you provided,

Does TheQuin say that bots are not allowed, or has he canceled this rule?
not really, sometimes we need people who are experienced here or who have used it to make sure that it is really safe

Using Bitbot is prohibited in our Terms of Service. I have banned many accounts for using it (it's very easy to detect). So it is very far from safe.

TERMS OF SERVICE

Please abide by the following simple rules when using this website:

1. Please do not use bots.
2. Please be civil when contacting us and refrain from using strong language.
3. Please do not try to abuse the free giveaway by creating multiple accounts.

If you are found to be breaking any of the above rules or trying to gain an unfair advantage to abuse the service, your account will be deleted and your account balance forfeited.



I’m quiet surprised people yet feel that using bots and abusing the system is safe, because we’re in 2022 and such shady practices are caught easily so don’t use it and then don’t complain when your accounts are banned.

Just got a surprise from freebitco.in today. Tada ....

One year passed just like that. The returns are decent enough but if I see the value in USD pair then returns are drastically low.
I don't mind though since I am getting the WoF spins in return with an extra interest.
May be I will reinvest these tokens.

One year flies by and I received a similar email some days ago. The interest is indeed quite nice and because of the low price, I just locked them again (now only for 90 days). I think everybody hopes that the price will shoot up higher in the near future but right now the price is pretty stable.

I was thinking the same. I thought of locking all the coins for 90 days as well.
I locked the coins while writing this post. In the next 90 days the year will almost end.
Excited to see how much the crypto market will evolve by then .



Good decision to lock them up again. I don’t think it’s a problem to lock them for another year. You can always enjoy higher benefits and even if the prices shoot up for the FUN and you have them locked up you can always be sure to get 25% extra as compared to the market whenever you get them back from freebitcoin. It’s always great idea to keep them locked up and FUN is not going anywhere considering they have freebitcoin websites backing. They do have even higher stake holders at binance with same APY. I think higher the lock period better is chance you get returns.

I didn't wanted to lock my FUN tokens for a whole year this time and so decided to lock them for 90 days.
At 90 days we get an APY of 15% which is still a great deal according to me.
Once it is matured I will rethink about locking up for a longer time.

I kinda lost in them because I became inactive on the site, but in my personal opinion locking them for 90 days makes absolute sense because we’re bound to witness more volatility in coming months, and depending on the latest market conditions then you could even plan to withdraw thus I feel that other users too should chose to lock for 90 days only.

Thanks for the update Steve, important to let people know. Nobody at sportsbet.io needs to worry though, the lack of graphics on the forum from yourselves won’t negatively impact anything. sportsbet.io is the best crypto sports bookie in the space, everybody knows that. You guys have the best sponsored pools here on bitcointalk, the best threads, best giveaways. Absolutely nothing to worry about, it’s biz as usual for the best in the biz.
No worries here Smiley
I think that I saw first updated Sportsbet graphics posted on their twitter channel and it looks good.

Any way, who’s looking forward to the return of the PL this weekend? The internationals are over for now & the main cuisine is on the table, our bread & butter. Lots of big games across Europe all weekend. Time to kick back with a beer or ten & get our bets on.
Yes Premier League is finally back and I am very interested in Arsenal vs Tottenham match.
My bet is on Arsenal to win but I see there are missing players for both sides and I expect to see goals on both sides.
There are nice specials and promotions for this match so it's a nice chance to earn something extra.

@Steve while this ruling is harsh but we knew that it would be coming soon, and I’m glad to see that the team hasn’t backed down and is actively working for the community. @notblox1 I feel that this match will end in a draw, because the player’s will be tired and rusty after such a long break hence I strongly feel that scoring changes will be limited for both the sides and the final score will be 0 - 0.

Going real easy on this with not much thinking, backing some old favourites and a sprinkling of upsets and yet-to-hit-form strikers.

So it's Jesus (sorry Spurs), Toney, JWP (he has to break his duck man), Mitrovic (yes, boring), Antonio (please bring his form back), Watkins and Iheanacho (what, I always choose Vardy!).

$10,000 here I come.
No other way than by gut feeling without any research Smiley I agree for some, Toney, Mitrović and Watkins are my choices as well. I went with Son since he opened up his account and I am thinking he will continue to score, Bowen from West ham since he is hands down most dangerous player in their team and Maddison for Leicester since it can be only him Smiley

I already know I will miss the scorer on Everton game, went with Gordon since he at least looks like he is trying.

^  Yeah..  It's mostly luck and timing as who could really predict anytime goal scorer accurately every week?  There's also the possibilty the game ends nil - nil.  But if somebody did, FJ would already be closing down the game because of losing 10k every week.  Cheesy  

Anyway, I'd prolly pick Kane, Che Adams as usual, Toney, Mitrovic, Podence, Rodrigo and Maddison.

Follow at your own risk.  Grin

@tokeweed it involves luck and talent to make us win, but I believe that with each game it’s getting difficult for player’s to score therefore we may see more draws taking place after the international break.

Also it seems that Mitrovic is everyone’s favourite and so far he’s been good, but for Kane I’m not sure how fit will he be after playing for England and thus he may probably not score and lastly there’s a possibility that he may come from the bench and only assist and not score (*just my assumption).
1349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: October 01, 2022, 04:18:59 AM
This is in accordance with the wishes of the Manchester United team, which is to want to win in every game in order to achieve its target. And it's definitely not just hanging on to someone like Ronaldo. So there is nothing wrong with that because Ronaldo will also be very happy if the team he is in now gets a good performance without him being in the main line-up of the team at this time.
Since Erik Ten Hag became the coach of Manchester United, many players have shown good performances in the matches they face, Cristian Ronaldo is no longer selfish and the team is getting closer in the game, in the two matches they played in group E, they lost once against Real Sociedad, so that the current position is in second place with a collection of three points.
and in my opinion Cristian Ronaldo is no longer a player who can make a big impact for Manchester United, but his role is still very much needed, because after all Ronaldo is a player who has a lot of experience.
After early setbacks now Erik Ten Hag is doing amazing job, and he is bringing good strategy which is surely going to work for Manchester United in long run because after long time they are having good chance for staying at the top and here all players need to perform their best game right now Cristiano Ronaldo is surely one of the most experienced players in this side even his game is not as few years back but still he can contribute positively and have good chance for giving good results with other players and coach is bringing him for one half it's also good decision because now after factor is surely need things like these which will help Cristiano Ronaldo for having more years into game with his best.

Even his impact is going to be less but still his performance is very important, and he can bring good results with his skills and experience which is also very important for the team with this all I am feeling he is going to be good and well for this team in long run.

Manchester United will need Ronaldo's contribution in the remaining games as well to be able to qualify from their group easier. He scored an important goal against Sheriff Tiraspol to increase his passion to show a good performance in the coming games. But he really needs his finishing skills back as soon as possible. He wasted some really nice opportunities in that game and he was able to score thanks to a penalty. This is enough for people to mock Ronaldo about his scoring mostly by penalties. He is a legend anyway but I hope he continues to score different kind of goals more often.
So far the other players have also shown good games so that Cristiano Ronaldo is no longer prominent at Manchester United but I hope that Erik Ten Hag gives more opportunities to play for Cristiano Ronaldo. I think Cristiano Ronaldo would have been productive again in scoring goals if he had been given more chances from the start. The next opponent is not so strong that is Omonia. and I'm sure United can win. but for the match later in the premier league is a really tough opponent against Manchester city.

I am of the opinion that Ronaldo will get very little game time now, because Martial and Rashford are fit and that means Ronaldo will only be used from the bench and will not start anytime soon. Furthermore while he may not like this situation but he’ll nevertheless have to accept it, and I sincerely hope that he scores some more goals in Europa before leaving Manchester United.

Arsenal have a good record at home. however, in the premier league this season, Antonio Conte's Tattenham are still unbeaten.  This match will not be easy for the Gunners, some of the core players are reportedly doubting to appear in this match. Elney, Nelson, Rowe, injured. Partey, Soares, Zinchenko, Tierney, dubious. obviously this is a loss for Arteta.

I'm not sure arsenal will win this match, it's an advantage for Tottenham to continue their positive trend, and Tottenham should be able to take this situation into a win. however, that doesn't mean Arteta's squad can't score goals, moreover this match is their home game. I hope Arteta can make the most of his players.
We give high hopes for Arsenal in this match, even though the match was not easy for Arsenal, so far Tottenham are still in the best condition in the English league, although not all the games they played got full points, so the chance to get points is very open for both clubs, and a draw is the most likely thing to happen, but honestly I prefer Arsenal to win the game, because so far Arsenal are still in the order that counts.

@Fara Chan this match will not be easy for both the team’s, because their player’s will be back after the international break and it’s difficult to say how fresh most of them would be after playing for their country. Lastly tactics wise I can say Tottenham should win, but Arteta’s Arsenal is doing very well too hence I’m starting to feel that this match will end in a draw.

It went to right place for sure!


This is madness what is going on.

At the same time all will be streamed:

https://www.twitch.tv/atomicslots



Who is AtomicSlots? I believe he win the biggest daily win, and most wagered in the daily competition? I saw Real Winner in the chatbox who was curious and he was asking about him too. Will he make our votes for Daily and Weekly wagering competition more predictable? Voting for a winner has also become an unpredictable game. Cool

Although, Real Winner said he's just merely observing, and he will return and play probably next week.

He is a new player. There’s already 3 user with atomic in there username. MrBrightside usually take over the spot of RW as king of the tournament but I’m surprised that AtomicSlot takeover MrB on the daily winner.

I didn’t notice it until you mention it here. I was having a very lucky day on free spin because I get yesterday and today a x150+ profit back to back and manage to grow it on BJ to 1mbtc+. There’s another free roll worth 2mbtc tonight. Make sure to join there.


There's also a "Private User" who has the same icon as MrBrightside. It's probably him/her who changed his account username to private.

Does anyone still join the chat? Gennady12 has been giving away Bitcoins in the chatbox. It's just a small amount per user, but it's still very appreciated by us very small gamblers. Plus the free spins have been more this week. Cool

@Wind_FURY I firmly believe that this aspect of not knowing who’s going to be the final winner makes the voting more fun, but when RW returns properly user’s will be further confused on whom to chose as the winner. Also thanks for the tip about the free btc, but I hope that chat doesn’t get crowded with people only seeking free coins otherwise it’ll dilute the fun that people have while chatting with each other on the site.

Juventus is considerably in the corner where the blows fall. And if you're in that, then everything is really against it. Juventus will have to weather this storm for a while and hope that things will get better soon. Pogba is a player who can make the whole team play better and can be of great value, but now it is of little use to them due to his injury. There are few other players at Juventus who can take the team by the hand. They don't have a real top striker either, and it would have made a difference if they could have attracted Depay. I don't understand why they didn't get a real striker. The vanguard is not bad but you need someone like Mbappe or Ronaldo. There were still plenty of attackers for sale.

Yes, Juventus coach is seriously working to ensure he get it right soon because their fans are not happy about the draw matches they are experiencing from this season that is making their points to dropped down. Since Paul Pogba is fully ready to join the team to play their next match, I believe Juventus will achieve victory from this match, because Paul Pogba know how to create opportunity for the attackers to have access to their opponent goalpost to achieve many goals that will bring victory at the end of the match. I don't think, Juventus managements have the money to sign in new talented striker in this period than to impact the old players to improve higher.
Lol, I don't think Juventus are short of forwards because they have Dusan Vlahovic, Arkadiusz Milik and even Juventus have their backing with very experienced players like Angel Di Maria. Even now there are rumors about Arsenal, Tottenham and even Real Madrid being interested in signing Dusan Vlahovic in the upcoming transfer market for a high fee. That way, basically Juventus already have players who can make Juventus stronger in the title race this season but unfortunately, they have a coach who can't take advantage of the player's performance.

@hahay Juventus isn’t a bad team but for some weird reason they haven’t clicked this season, and I won’t be surprised if they decided to sack their coach. However I feel that the board members maybe waiting to see Pogba’s impact, because he’s that kind of player who can single handedly lift the team but sadly he’ll yet take some more time to return to club football, and till then Allegri will have to hope that results improve or he’ll risk getting sacked.

I think that Pakistan can take some positives from this and that is they know they have the firepower in the bowling department to defend even a very low total. And Pakistan will remember that they have to do well as a team in the batting department. Currently, the batting lineup of Pakistan is not being able to perform together as a unit. That is a very big weakness for Pakistan.

They will have to remember that only one or two players performing each match are not going to be enough for them. Pakistan was very lucky that they had good bowlers. That's why they could win by 9 runs in that match against Netherlands. Otherwise, it would have been a big upset.
Pakistan is mostly having good side, but sadly their inner politics is also involved in selection which is bigger concern in recent time as well they are sticking with few players for long time even their performance is not as they have to be, and they have few good players like Sharjeel Khan, Shoaib Malik and Haider Ali which are not having enough chances in last few months which is also not good because right now it's good time for having them into team and take good advantage but again and again sticking with failures are bringing them into big hole.

In last two matches against England their batting going down badly but bowling helping in good way which is good combination but still it's time for having few changes and bringing few other players as well which are capable of giving their best for the team in long run.

@Ayers I believe that Pakistan is a team that’s capable of beating the big team’s, but they’re not consistent at all which makes it’s difficult to predict how they’ll perform in the World Cup. Furthermore I would not advise to wager big on them even if you’re getting tempting odds, but do monitor their performances and if you see improvement in their form then it won’t be a bad idea to wager small amounts on them.

it will definitely be a hot transfer between Barcelona and PSG.
Messi is a great player, and he is already a part of the great history of Barcelona. Barca is not short of players at the moment I think. even with Lewandowski up front, Barca is already very good.
if it happened, either it would be a good buy for Barca or not. Xavi is of course currently thinking about how best they will achieve the target this season.

xavi should focus on  his youth
Team, develop them into world class players,   xavi has that ability of transforming young stars. Singing 2messi back to barca will definitely affect the dressing room. Messi left barca with anger, he never wanted to leave . he cut down his pay for him to stay, but the barca management  could not resist psg offer. He has lost his relationship with barca, beside that he doesn't have the fitness again to compete in barca. Singing messi back will be worse singing to the team at the moment.

@Lordhermes the fans of Barcelona yet adore him, and signing him back will help the current president win the next elections hence I expect Barcelona to go all out and sign him. Furthermore Messi will be a great influence on Barcelona’s player’s, hence it’s a simple decision if he’s available then Barcelona should definitely sign him because he’ll yet be able to help them win some more trophy’s.

Because people knew that Bayern Munich was going to win the league title, I believe people began to lose interest in the Bundesliga. It seems that suddenly there is a possibility that this is not going to be the case. It is for this reason that I believe people are becoming more interested in the Bundesliga again. Nevertheless, the problem with Bayern Munich is that they have enough money to quickly fix any problems that they may have. I think that this time it is going to be either a change of authority or the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo to the team. My opinion is that either one of these options will be able to solve the problem. Even so, I agree with you that the Bundesliga is once again interesting to watch.
Honestly what comes to my mind is people are interested in the Bundesliga or are they just interested in the performance of Bayern Munich who got a negative result in their 4 matches? Because to be honest I also think a little about the Bundesliga. Changes in position in the standings, at the top of the standings precisely because Bayern Munich is in a negative trend. If they come back then the situation will change soon and I'm sure of that.

It is understandable that people are just tired of watching the same team win the Bundesliga title year after year. I think it has come to a point where people actually would be happy if Bayern Munich did not win the title of the Bundesliga this season. It basically just does not matter to them which team wins the Bundesliga title except for Bayern Munich. I think that's why people are so excited about the fact that they are performing poorly in the Bundesliga this year. Although it is too early to make any predictions, I think Dortmund will have a good chance of winning this season if they can be consistent throughout the whole season.

I will stick to my earlier stand that I don’t think that Ronaldo is going there, and the only possibility now is to sack their coach but I feel that he’s done terrific job in the past hence sacking him now doesn’t seem like a wise idea. Furthermore if they end up sacking him then they can get Tuchel or Poch, as they both are excellent coaches and they can definitely revive Bayern but in my personal opinion they should not sack their current coach.

Even if Lewandowski stayed at Bayern, it would not change the problem that the club would be forced to deal with the problem of his departure. Well, if he left a year or two later (due to age) - I don’t see any fundamental differences. Top clubs solve the problem of leaving their stars in advance, for example, Real got rid of Ronaldo long before he passed his peak (or at least an acceptable level of play to be in Real) and nothing tragic happened to Real.
But of course it's funny that everything is shaping up so that in the end Ronaldo can be the savior of Bayern in the winter.

While you are correct in that it is counterproductive to talk about the past, I think you have a really great perspective on Cristiano Ronaldo joining Bayern Munich and I think you are really right. Since last season, CR7 has been wanting to get out of Manchester United as he has learned that United are not the team that will be able to compete in the Champions League, and he really wants to play in the Champions League. In my opinion, this could be a great option for both parties as Bayern Munich will be able to get a good striker for the next one or two years and Ronaldo will be able to play again in the Champions League.

Rather, not for a year or two, but for half the season and, at best, the next season. It seems that United were ready to release Ronaldo on loan, provided that Ronaldo extended the contract for another season. The idea was to bring him back if United won a ticket to the Champions League. Now the situation has changed, but a lot still depends on the results of United this season.
United is still having a chance to win a ticket to the champion league for the next season as long as this club can consistently winning the match against big club like city. United able to defeat arsenal and it was also able to do the same with city. MU has a big chance to make it happen. We know that if some big clubs like liverpools are starting to face difficult time to get full points in EPL. Remember that menchester city was also loosing against liverpool.
MU has more than enough to enter into the top 4 if the club will not face another lose or bad situation like early season.

I don’t think that this transfer is going to happen, unless Bayern have a new coach in place who badly wants Ronaldo to come and play for them. Furthermore it’ll also depend if Ten Hag wants him on the bench as the season progresses, hence it’s not in Ronaldo’s hand because as far as I know Bayern don’t want him and Ten Hag may not let him leave.

But PSG encountered difficulties in Europe, they did not appear as mighty as in Ligue 1. Even though it has been filled with several players who have won the Champions League several times, PSG looks like a team that does not have a winning mentality..
They have issues with mentality and easily lose control at important times. They must improve it if they want to win Champions League. Like in the past season, we saw how good they can play but again they lost in the end by stupid serial mistakes personally. Such mistakes are unacceptable in big matches and in Champions League, it will be punished by opponents.

Maybe you will know that this season the probability of PSG in the Champions League to win the title is also very good. PSG became the second team after Manchester City to have a percentage probability of reaching the final and winning the title, but that is just a prediction that cannot be fully benchmarked.
They belong to best clubs in Champions League in theory and only recent seasons they managed to join quarter and semi final rounds more regularly. They had a first Champions League final but failed. Anyway, it is good improvement for them and for better achievement. Finally I believe they will win Champions League in this season or in near future season.

Quote
PSG and their attacking trio have been very good so far. Their goal productivity is very high where for 8 matches they have scored 17 goals. Neymar leads with 8 goals, Mbappe 7, while Messi 4. If this trio is very compact, then I believe their goal stats will be very good this season.
They are good at attacking but they must find balance between attacking and defense. Their defense is never good and with the trio, they have very little contribution for proactive defense. It would be problems for them in big matches when opponents are dangerous with counter attacking.

@hd49728 as I said earlier I felt that PSG player’s tend to choke during important champions league matches, and unless the new coach can find an answer to this psychological problem I doubt that he can help them lift this trophy. Furthermore if there’s one thing I have learnt about champions league is that league stats don’t matter and when the favourites play with over confidence they often end up losing, hence PSG will have to perform exceptionally well to reach the finals first and then dream about lifting the trophy.

Judging by the bookmakers' estimates, the Netherlands have approximately equal chances with Spain and Germany. The Netherlands are rated at 12.7 and Spain and Germany at 8.8 and 10.7. These are fairly close estimates, indicating that the Netherlands is in the group of favorites.
By the way, why do you think that European teams will perform badly at the World Cup? The Cup is formally held in Asia, but in fact it is a time zone in Europe. Therefore, I rather expect that Europe, as always, will dominate.
I don't agree with this. Spain maybe the favorites from the UEFA region and Germany is also a quite strong side (although they have performed very poorly in the UEFA nations league). Netherlands is far behind when compared to these two teams.

I am just assuming that UEFA teams will find it hard to adjust to the climatic conditions in the middle-east. Last time, when the world cup was held in Asia (South Korea/Japan), it was Brazil who lifted the trophy. Another aspect is that none of the UEFA teams (not even Spain) seems to be in peak form right now. Brazil seems to be far ahead of all the other teams.
World Cup 2022 which is going to be played in Qatar with climate change and Conditions are surely going to have impact on many teams specially from UEFA countries because they need time for adjustment, but they have no enough time for this just because of European soccer season is on peak, so this is also going against them with teams from Africa and South America both are in better shape just because of these conditions with right now most of the UEFA top teams are in development process which is surely another factor for having not good performance from them many are coming with youths and few are having issues which are not going to settle soon.
 
Argentina and Brazil are also having youths, but they are better prepared for this and can do good performance, which is also big factor for having title in their pocket this time.

I don’t expect Netherlands to be a favourite, even if the odds look decent I strongly feel that they’ll crash out without making it to the semis. Furthermore Brazil squad is covered exceptionally well in each and every department and I just don’t see any other team beating them, and thus if one can get decent odds on Brazil I feel that they should take their chances and stick with Brazil only during this tournament.

You are right. With the Indian women's team doing well in the ODI format, they will now look to do well in the T20 and Test formats as well. And I think the Indian women's team will improve very quickly in the Test and T20 rankings. The Indian team is quite strong now. They have been able to do well both in bowling and batting. The team has some great batsmen like Harmanpreet Kaur and Harleen Deol. Now the Indian women's team will fight for the top spot in the ranking.

The Indian women were always good as far as batting is concerned. What changed now is regarding pace bowling (similar to what happened with the men's team almost a decade ago). Renuka Singh Thakur has performed exceptionally in the recent months, and she wrecked the England batting lineup multiple times during the recent tour. The absence of Jhulan Goswami will not be felt, thanks to players such as Renuka. Not taking any credit away from players such as Harmanpreet and Smriti. They also played a major role in the series win against England.

@Sithara007 their achievements were often not seen by the fan’s, but they yet kept performing to the highest standards and now they have the fan’s attention and hopefully they will keep on rising upwards from here. Also the key point as you mentioned was their ability to transform with time and not stick to past methods, and thus I believe that we’ll see more success stories of theirs in 2023 as this Indian women team won’t back down against any opponent.

Australia is a team that has focused more on test and odi then on t20 format. Result is you can see Australia good performance in test all around the world. While West Indies is a team that is only capable of playing t20 format. The way West Indies is going I am sure they will lose test status very soon.
Australia now try hard to play better than before. They play well in almost every match now. Australia but in T20 they have some players because of which Australia team win very easily. They play well in every match.  Batting and bowling they have everything they have become such a good team. If Australia can play like this then Australia can do a lot better.
Australian system is one of the best in cricketing world just because of this in recent form they have never been out of the top rank from any format and their quality is also stable with having few outstanding players which can do good in any situation even sometime they faced few issues but their ability to fight back is also good, so they can learn from their mistakes very quickly.

Now a long season at home is waiting for them so most chances they could be at the top of their game with this all specially now T20 World Cup and then test series against South Africa is surely going to be big test for them where they need to do good in currently squad they have few quality fast bowlers and quality batsmen like Steve Smith and Labuschagne which are surely at the top of their game.

@lixer I personally feel that a lot changed for Australia after the sandpaper gate incident, and it showed in their recent performances that their win at all cost attitude has gone and now they try to win more naturally. Furthermore WI can’t survive in a test match against Australia, hence I’m expecting the odds to be very low on Australia because one can easily make lots of money while wagering on them.
