141  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: March 26, 2024, 06:08:24 PM
If possible I would prefer Benzema to return to Europe and I think there he would still be more comfortable than in the Saudi league. But there is one thing that will create bad sentiment towards the Saudi League if that happens and perhaps in the future the Saudi League will not be a suitable home for footballers from Europe. Such a summary could be made by the media and the Saudi league would again suffer losses.

Maybe even if Benzema's performance is not so promising even though he has trained again, what is important in my opinion is that Al-Ittihad can keep him until his contract ends. Because I'm pretty sure there are other profitable agreements despite his declining performance and that could at least be a replacement for his failure with Al-Ittihad.
But to which team? I mean Benzema is old, and hasn't really shown any greatness in the last 2 seasons, just because he won Ballon D'or a year before that, doesn't mean that he is still great. Last year at Real he wasn't great and so far he hasn't been playing much this season neither, all of which means that he is not that great.

I believe that European teams would want him only if they are a small club, maybe some smaller French team may want him, not just for his talent, which he might be good for a team that level but also for jersey sales. How many mid table team could get a player after they won Ballon D'or, that should be the most important part. All in all I think it will be quite good for them to hire a player like that, but if only he is cheap.

being an early bird on a particular project is very rewarding, but at the same time, it also has the highest risk of all the projects that you can invest your money with. Sure you can 5x or 10x your money investing into some new projects, but what are the chances of you getting that huge reward? Also, do you expect meme coins like BOME to pump up in price before it happened a few weeks ago? Can I also ask if you are watching a particular meme coin that has a low market cap currently, and has a potential to go up in price?

Spotting which coins will pump up in price before it happens is a hard thing to do, and there's a high chance that you might lose tons of money before getting a huge profit. TBH, I'm keeping some USDT currently, but not for the reason you shared. I'm keeping USDT because I believe that we will see a market correction after the halving event happens. Will I invest in new projects? No, but I will invest into lower market cap coins, possible those at below top 100 in terms of market cap.

Investing into meme coins especially those new ones aren't bad, but don't expect too much in terms of profit, and always be ready for the worst.
Even if the idea is to have some USDT in order to invest into something quickly when you see a good potential then it becomes something inevitable to do a bigger deal. So we should consider the fact that we need to end up buying something that may actually go up, but why would we wait at USDT for that? What's wrong with waiting at bitcoin during that period?

If you really think that we could actually come up with something that will grow big, then we should probably consider holding bitcoin and when bitcoin goes up we profit and that's great, and in the end we are going to end up with a greater profit making mechanism. We could definitely see something growing bigger with time, and then we could sell our bitcoin and buy that project.
143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: March 25, 2024, 06:40:42 PM
One of things I'm curious about this season is whether De Rossi will manage to carry Roma to the finale just as Mourinho did in the previous season. Maybe things didn't went well for Mourinho in the Serie A back then but he was still doing quite nice in European tournaments. First a Conference League title and later on reaching the finale in the Europa League.  Smiley

This would be really important for De Rossi to increase his chances to get a new contract from the board. His contract is until the end of the season for now you know. If he carries Roma to the finale here and into top 4 in the Serie A I see no reason for the board to not continue with him.
I do not think that it will happen, last year Roma did managed to play against some very good teams there is no doubt about that, but Roma has to beat Milan, Leverkusen and Liverpool depending on which one of them they will face or not, that's way too much. I am not saying that they will face all, but they may face at least one or possibly more, and Mourinho never had to face any team like that, which is important.

We need to make sure that we do not expect the worlds from them, let them be and there won't be any problems at all. I hope that we are going to end up with a much better result eventually, but we just need to accept the way it is right now without having to worry about anything else at all. Roma could lose, and still be considered a success by De Rossi.

Everything is over priced but people keep spending
If needs are defined broadly, of course this will trigger various factors that make people still want to buy, even though the goods are expensive, of course if it is speculated on the economic situation of the community, of course it will be burdensome and become a real burden, We understand that expensive products are not a solution for the poor, but what can I say, the state of the product and the economy says so.

For example, food, as the OP said, actually many economically weak people complain about this, but with the expensive ingredients for food, of course the price of food must be adjusted to the price, so whether they like it or not, people still have to buy food, to cover their rumbling stomachs, even though it is expensive, in contrast to other products, for example cars, property, perhaps those who have a better economy can take advantage of all of it, Food is different because it is a primary need that must be fulfilled even though it is expensive, different from secondary food that can be obtained or not.
I do agree that things getting more and more expensive is a big deal, but if we have to deal with it then we have to deal with it, and in most cases we do not realize how important that is. I get that people may think that we are not going to get anything major out of this, but we will definitely end up with a lot of trouble if we are not careful.

I believe that the best thing to do would be just cut down our own costs, whatever is the most expensive thing we spend on, we should cut that down, sometimes I do that when I need to and recover from the bad financial situation I am in and then I end up doing much better later on. That's just how it should go and I believe that will probably be the most important part of it.
145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Management on: March 24, 2024, 06:50:43 PM
People's different life situations and experiences can influence how they view gaming. Gambling might be exciting and enjoyable for some people, but it can also cause worry and anxiety for others. Some people use gambling to distract themselves from problems while others use it to try to solve them. As you pointed out, some people may be unable to make their own judgments for a variety of reasons. All of these elements can influence how people approach and perceive gambling.
Exactly, I agree with this and maybe I will elaborate more that indeed the situation has a considerable influence in terms of determining the intention and purpose of someone involved in gambling, such as for example poor people or whoever the point is who have an unstable or below average financial situation where I see most of them trying to make gambling as a way or place to solve their financial problems or simply they try to make gambling a quick way to get rich.

That is a wrong mindset that leads to a goal that will lead them to a much worse situation, as we have seen from what is experienced by gambling addicts where instead of making money but instead the opposite happens where they lose a lot of money as a result of trying to treat gambling in the wrong way, and however what is more advisable is as you said that gambling is just a place to find temporary pleasure and there should not be any seriousness in it such as gambling when you have boring free time. The point remains that I agree with the idea that an individual's situation and circumstances can greatly influence their goals in gambling, this is also the reason why rich people mostly make gambling as a place of recreation and not to earn because rich people have a good financial situation and usually they have a rational assessment of something that involves money.
The idea they have "maybe gambling will fix my financial situation" never really looked like it was something a smart person would ever say. Mathematically speaking it is impossible for you to make money on gambling, you would need to get lucky A LOT and then quit, even if you make a lot of money, if you continue to gamble then you will keep on losing a lot of money.


This is why it never made any sense to me that people would assume that gambling is a way to get rid of financial troubles. In any case, we are living in a world where things are much better, and because of that I think we should not be really considering anything different. I hope that things could get better, and eventually we could see these people get better.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: Economy pressure on: March 24, 2024, 08:48:34 AM
It cannot be denied that economic difficulties can affect a person's emotions and behavior, especially in the family. Stress and pressure from economic difficulties can trigger behavioral changes, such as becoming angry and temperamental. Apart from that, it can also cause anxiety about the future. However, although economic difficulties can affect a person's or household's behavior, it is important for us to control our emotions and try to solve problems in a good and productive way.
I do agree that it is not easy, but we can't just assume that it is going to be that hard forever, we can just see it grow eventually as well. I get that people could be in stress, but we need to focus on how to get better with time as well. I think it is clear that people will not be approaching this situation quite slowly, we will definitely end up with a much better result eventually. Stress or not, we need to just focus on doing the right thing.

If we sway away from how to trade even for a while, we will end up with losing money. I know what is right, which is holding, for me at least, some people can trade and make a lot so they do that, but for me it is holding which means if I stop holding then it is not going to be easy for me.
147  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is investment a necessity or a want? on: March 24, 2024, 06:12:32 AM
some one very close to me has been prioritizing coins involvement other than his health care.
If that person is having any health related issues then he/she must give more priority to his/her health instead of thinking a lot of investing in coins. Investment isn't a necessity and no one forces anyone to invest in anything, it's someone's own choice to invest or not to invest.

If your friend wants to invest then he/she should invest but I believe taking care of his health should be given more priority than investing. Health is your true wealth without it no profits can make you wealthy. Even if someone earns $1M by investing, without good health that would not make him/her happy.
Yeah, I had this and not for myself a loved one had it and I had to stop all the investment thinking and just started not only cashing out all my investments, but starting selling off stuff from my house just to be able to pay it. Don't get me wrong, I did made a profit from my investments and that helped a lot, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't rather keep that.

However, when it's about health, then everything else takes a hold and we all start to consider money as unimportant. No amount of money ever bought a second, and that's the type of living you need to be doing. If you are investing, then your purpose is to have money when you need it and what other reason could it be better than health reason?
148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 23, 2024, 09:05:54 PM
He shouldn't have returned in the first place, but that was done all because Sir Alex Ferguson called him directly. Yeah, Ronaldo gave Manchester United winners against Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham United scoring Hat tricks against these clubs.
I also think Ronaldo shouldn’t have returned to Manchester United, it wasn’t his idea to return as well as he almost  joined Manchester City as Pep Guardiola was already pushing for Ronaldo to sign for him which he almost did but out of the respect Ronaldo has for Sir Alex Ferguson he had to join Manchester United instead and i think he would be regretting his decision to join Manchester United because of all the things he went through there. It would have been a different case if he joined Manchester City as he could have easily won the treble with Guardiola and scored far more goals than he did at United.

For a Legend who has nothing but respect for the club i think he was disrespected far too much by the coach, the fans and some players in the team, they thought he was the problem causing them downfall but where are they now? Barcelona wouldn’t have treated Messi that way if he was to return back. Ronaldo was easily the team’s highest goal scorer despite being one of the oldest in the team if not the oldest but he was the problem.

When you have a player like Ronaldo in your team you just need to make other players work for him and leave him to do what he does best which is scoring goals, you don’t expect a player in his late 30s to still give you what a young player would give you.
I would guess that things would have been different, because Haaland joined as we all know, where are you going to put Ronaldo when you have a monster like Haaland at that team? I do not know if that was the same season or not, I can't remember but I feel like the eventual situation was like that, or maybe they wouldn't get Haaland I don't know, but even City would know that they would have to step away from an aging Ronaldo.

What I really really hoped was Sporting Lisbon, lets be honest Lisbon isn't some amazing team, they do have historical success, but having Ronaldo (even at this age) would be amazing help, both in quality, but also as an example to all the younger players there. That's what I dreamed after he decided to leave United, instead of going where the money was.
149  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin vs election? on: March 23, 2024, 01:35:52 PM
I'm following the US election a bit closer this year as I have a lot financially at stake.  I think a lot of people are.   I notice every time Trump gets good news, bitcoin price goes up, and when things are looking down for Trump (like now) bitcoin takes a beating.   

Does Biden or Trump have any policies on bitcoin or energy conservation I don't know about?   I believe Biden will be forced to further rein in bitcoin mining pollution, while Trump will probably continue to steal from the next generation by allowing it to continue.
Dont know if there is indeed a correlation in talking about election to Bitcoin or its really just that coincidence but since it does shows several patterns then it cant be ignored that there might be that correlation.
The thing i do just know that Trump is really that not against Bitcoin or simply with crypto in compared to Biden. We should really be considering that there are still other factors
on which Bitcoins price is really that been affected too but if you are really that be able to see some patterns then it isnt a bad idea on making yourself making use of these things
specially when buying or selling opportunities or chances.
I would say that looking at how it was Bidens administration period where all these ETF's got accepted, maybe Biden is not against it neither? I do not see where the idea that he is against it came from but I think Biden doesn't even know much about bitcoin, and it's his cabinet and people he appointed that makes decisions based on bitcoin, and so far they have done a very good job welcoming bitcoin as well, so I would say Bidens period actually accepted bitcoin and even increased it.

Whereas, Trump period ended with a big bear, of course it was a bad period but I would say it is not really that crazy to think that it wouldn't be that weird, he is turning more into it now but I guess it is going to take a bit of time to get there.
150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: March 23, 2024, 11:36:53 AM
I think gambling is a controllable addiction because I can control myself, but some people cannot control themselves, like in the example you gave. Your friend seems to be a hopeless case. I don't think the advice you are giving him will have a positive outcome. If I were you, I would try to get professional help after doing everything I could. Professional health organizations that fight against addictions can help you. Specialized psychiatrists or psychologists will surely help your friend. They spend their lives helping people like your friend. We should always trust professionals and science.
but usually addicts think that what they are doing is right and they don't believe what anyone else says other than themselves. usually they will refuse various forms of help, even from professionals, which makes it very difficult to treat gambling addicts. so the initial approach that can be taken to treat the addict is to approach him with empathy and understand what he is feeling. then, after a while of this approach being carried out, professional help is brought in to be able to provide emotional assistance to the addict and at the same time to help him get out of his addiction.
They always think that their luck is just about to turn, even though it doesn't. I get that the idea that they are going to make some profit is always on their mind and I believe that they are almost always wrong but they just keep thinking that way. There is no way that we are going to end up with anything good, it is not going to be profitable for anyone, I just wonder how things are going to go.

We should all be considering the situation we are in right now, and that means we are going to just see it change eventually, that's the way it should be going. I believe that we are going to end up with something decent one way or another, and if we know what we are doing then we shouldn't be worrying about it. Focus on what you can alter, and let everything else be the way it is.
151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's next in the memecoin cycle? on: March 23, 2024, 09:09:55 AM
There's much discussion surrounding the current memecoin season. We've witnessed all the usual aspects of a crypto memecoin season: from speculative trading to numerous project launches and presales, along with a flurry of airdrops. Presently, speculative trading and presales are at the forefront. While airdrops like JUP and Wen have come and gone. We’ve even seen bigger projects like bitget introduce their own airdrop/ rewards programs with prizes for various activities such as registration, spot trading, and completing futures trading tasks.

At this point, we've experienced a wide range of events so far and comparing the current scenario to what I recall from the bullish market of 2021, it seems like we have encountered all that a memecoin cycle can offer. Consequently, I anticipate a direct transition to altcoin season. Any thoughts on this prediction? Or how much longer do you think this will last?
no one knows for sure how long this situation will last. meme coin grows with strong hype. they create short pumps and the momentum is sometimes difficult for us to gain.
The airdrop momentum of the Solana network will probably last for quite a while. Since last year we have seen how Solana and several memecoins of the Solana network have caught the attention of many people in the community.
I do agree that it will take some time for people to get used to things, but meme is here to stay obviously. I would NEVER invest a single dime on it, I would never even consider investing into any meme projects but that doesn't mean that I am not aware of the fact that there are a lot of money to be made in this world, so I just accept it the way it is.

So all in all, I highly suggest that we make sure that we are dealing with whatever we want to, it is going to be something that could take some time, so we need to grow with the flow and just make it work one way or another. I hope that people could see how well we are going to end up with it, because in most cases we won't get what we want and that is why it is a tough situation.
152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 22, 2024, 12:10:51 AM
This is good news because Antoine Kombouaré is a coach who has managed Nantes before, although last season Nantes also experienced a bad season where they were almost relegated, but Antoine Kombouaré was able to secure Nantes' position with a difference of 2 points from the clubs below him who were in the relegation zone, but because of Nantes' poor performance he decided to leave and be replaced by a new coach but it turned out that the new coach did not provide good development for Nantes this season and Nantes' position was increasingly threatened in the relegation zone. He was ranked 16th with a difference of only 2 points from the club below him if Nantes If you don't fix it immediately then 1 match won by the club below it could shift its current position.

Hopefully with the return of Nantes' old coach he can save Nantes from this zone. At least a difference of 1 place will be enough for Nantes like last season, but this is towards the end and Nantes still has time to improve its position in the remaining matches this season. So that the clubs are not below it overtake them, Antoine Kombouaré has a tough task in saving the club and he has to rack his brains in developing a strategy for facing the next match.
I always like it when a good coach goes back to their team. He was good there, he did fine and I am guessing that they are expecting the same again from him, which he will probably provide as well. This doesn't mean that they are going to end up with anything major, but it's clear that they are going to do better at least.

Keeping the same manager for years makes no sense, if you see bad results, even if it is within 10 games, you fire them. I know it is quite unusual at this point of the season because we are getting pretty close to end, but I also understand that they feared what might happen if they kept him, so firing and getting Kombouare is a lot better idea and will benefit them, I am expecting better results now.
153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 21, 2024, 01:24:02 AM
It was rumored that he would return to play after successfully going through a series of recovery after injury at the start of the season, but some time ago Courtois was reported to have suffered another injury during a training session which resulted in him having to undergo knee surgery again. Courtois suffered an ACL meniscus injury which required surgery again and it is reported that he has successfully survived the operation.

This is truly fatal for a main goalkeeper for a team as big as Real Madrid and he will certainly leave this season without ever playing for Real Madrid once. He needed another 2 months to recover from his injury after surgery and this was a very long time to pass. It's quite sad to hear this news and of course his recovery is something the medical team must pay full attention to. Luckily without Courtois, Real Madrid is having a very good season and Andrey Lunin as his replacement is doing his job very well. I'm curious whether Courtois will be able to return to his best performance after recovering or not.
I feel like even though he is a great goalkeeper, is there even a reason to keep hoping for him to return back? Real got a temporary solution for one year until he comes back, but I think it is time to look for a permeant one. I think he can make a comeback next season if they want to keep him, and I do think that they will do that for sure, he will definitely spend the next 5-6 months recovering and he will be much better, BUT does it really worth it?

I mean he is not young anymore and they can find a goalkeeper that could be younger and maybe not better but can grow. He wasn't this good when he first came in neither but he got better and better. I think it's quite important to get the best they possibly could get at a younger age.
154  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: New trader's must remember it. on: March 20, 2024, 04:24:32 AM
I don't know if there is like a sticky for new traders to follow. For me it might be better if there are no rigid set of protocols for them. Just go with the motions and have some fun when you are a beginner and see how it goes for you.

And maybe if you gain that experience then that is the time that you will go back in your notes and see what might be the success for you or what you have to do to improve your trading and to make money. So time and money is absolute to make more money, in my humble opinion.
That is true, people should be focusing on getting better, and there are many methods that you can use to get better as well, I believe that if you use them all and try to find out how you could get better then you are going to be doing fine. I know that it is going to take a while, but it has to be something that takes a bit of a risk, if you can take that risk then you should be fine in the end. I know that a lot of people do not take that risk and because of that they are doing poorly.

So, when you combine a bit of risk and a lot of learning together, the mixture creates a great trader eventually, the biggest problem there is that it takes a while for you to get a result that will lose you money, that is the important part.

i didnt say all rich people are not flashy
i said SMART PEOPLE dont waste their cash so dont flash it around and instead invest it

elon musk is not cash rich, he is paper rich. he is on paper a near trillionaire so his house was ~0.0072% of his wealth
for him $72m is not flashy nor getting him in debt

this topic is about the OP thinking that his professor is poor due to driving an old car.. yet logic, math and economics show that you cant base someones wealth on their car/house.. as many people might be owning that home/car on some DEBT agreement to appear flashy.. but have costs that bite into their income deeply..
where as smart people would buy cars/homes in full using a small amount of income(that is the professor and even elon)

hardly anyone buys a lambo out-right using a suitcase of cash or a debit card, the majority(stats) finance their cars when getting them new from dealerships.. so dont assume in the rare case of the super rich paying small percentage to buy things, to then assume the working/middleclass are super rich because they have a flashy car(which majority of cases is on finance)
and like i said dont assume a professors of a university is poor/earning min wage because he has a tweed jacket and a old car
That is almost all the rich people I know, because they realize that every single dollar they spend, could be spent on growing their wealth and business. Imagine this, consider you have a big company, and you can hire people for 50k a year, or you could buy a 1 million dollar superlux car, would you rather get 20 people working for you for a year, or would you rather get that car?

I would definitely get the people. I think it is quite important to consider that we are going to get a lot of smart and rich people picking the same thing as well. This is why it is not about rich or poor, stupid people spend their money on things they do not need, and smart people prefer to spend their money on things that will make the more money.
156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why you need to have spare USDT in this bullrun. on: March 19, 2024, 08:36:00 AM
Binance listing BOME in there derivative market is a big plus to the token so there is still a lot to expect from the token in the future. Though the price is retracing after the bullish move. Unfortunately, I didn't buy it when it was listed on Bitget. A couple of my friends who got in early made easy 7× of their investment.
Yes more are still coming to be listed but that doesn't guaranteed to be legit there are some those listing are contracted and once the contract end Binance will still delist them so so that is not a guarantee to invest in a meme coins. Though most of them do well but we have to be careful with the altcoins because they number of altcoins that are coming to the ecosystem is getting out of hand.. every developer is interested to create one or more shitcoins and launched it with some capitals and we don't know what will happen to these altcoins in the future.

As it is increasing day and night scammers are also on it to devour some victims therefore invest wisely. And any coin listed by any of the major exchange is a plus to that coin because investors can sell their coins there and more people will invest in it.
The scammers part is the most important part because if you are not careful, no matter what you are hodling, you could lose all of your money. I understand that sometimes it feels like it is exactly what you should do, but USDT is not a must, it is a must to avoid scammers. I would guess that when you are not careful then you are going to end up with a lot of money gone and you would not know what to do. One part about crypto world is that there is no revert option, so if you make one mistake then you are going to end up losing everything.

I hope that people could realize what we can do with it, and if we can do this then it is going to be something that will be a lot more special, it should be something special to take care of it all, and USDT is irrelevant in that case.
157  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Let's talk about SOL resilience for recent market correction on: March 19, 2024, 03:18:02 AM
I’m going to have to pin point this on solana’s great innovation. I think its utility is a huge factor in drawing in investors and making them stay. Solana as a blockchain is accessible and a lot easier and faster to make transactions in compared to other altcoins and on top of all that, it has also released numerous other coins allowing more options for more investors.
I think that could be it, but a right timed pump could also be the reason. While everything is going down, and many people made profit, SOL got a small pump, that lead to everyone with that much profit, to use their profits here to keep it higher and higher.

I bet you that it will average down to market levels eventually, I do not think that it will stay like this. In the case that it does, it may not be about SOL at all and just about how the market works. In the end, I could be wrong and SOL could be a great project as well, I wouldn't know I am just making an assumption here and I think it is still important to be careful. Plus, it did stay resilient already, so if you were there then you gained something from it but if you weren't then not.

Montpellier vs PSG
PSG are expecting the 3 points tonight even though they are playing at Stade de la Mosson it doesn't matter, Montpellier can withstand pressure that will come from PSG.
After three consecutive draws, PSG were finally able to get three points again by beating Montpellier, a team that could be said to have not survived the relegation zone.
The victory achieved by PSG can be said to be something natural considering that the two teams are very different in strength, that is why PSG was able to win with a landslide score of 6-2 and Kylian Mbappe succeeded in scoring a hat trick and that makes him even further away from the other strikers on the list of Ligue 1 top scorers this season with 24 goals and second place Jonathan David with 15 goals, so it is certain that Kylian Mbappe will be the top scorer.

Brest only drew against Lille, and their position might be shifted by Lille who is in fourth position if Brest loses many points in the remaining matches this season.
They were always capable of getting a win, they just didn't really want to push themselves too much, used a bit of rotation in some of them as well. The thing is that we are talking about a team that will take a while to lose that title run, even after Mbappe leaves they will probably not have any problems and they will cause a lot of issues for sure.

I think it's clear that we are going to end up with better results, we just need to give it some time. I hope that PSG does get a competition though, some super wealthy guy buying Lyon or something, that would make it much better and the competitiveness in the league would skyrocket, plus everyone will watch a lot more games so the quality of the league would go up too.

It will be hard for Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga title this season. Bayern Leverkusen won their match to maintain their 10-point lead over Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga table. If Bayern Munich can get the UEFA Champions League title this season, it will make up for the Bundesliga title they will not win.
I thought Bayer Leverkusen would get a defeat or draw against Freiburg but apparently not because Bayer could still maintain its performance and get three points, if there was a surprise in the match it would slightly increase its competition with Bayern Munich but again Bayern Munich must accept the fact that the point difference remains the same, so it could be said that it is difficult and there is no chance of any changes at the top of the standings.
Bayern Munich winning the Champions League also looks quite difficult, but it is not impossible for them to achieve it.

Against Darmstadt, Bayern Munich scored five goals, and their goal was also conceded two goals. If their weaknesses in defense were immediately corrected in the middle of the season, perhaps Bayern would not have dropped enough points to make them lose the title.
Harry Kane has scored a total of 31 goals in Bundesliga matches and he will be the top scorer this season because the Stuttgart striker is behind by around 9 goals which will be difficult for him to catch.
I do agree that Leverkusen will "eventually" lose points somewhere because they are both getting tired, but also they are so much ahead that losing means nothing to them, which is why I think it's quite clear that they could lose and not care about it. When you have the chance to go out and lose and nothing changes, you care a little less, the games are not that important so the possibility of that team losing becomes higher.

Leverkusen is at that point right now and they could end up losing too, I think it could make some sense. However, that wasn't this one, it will eventually happen, I do not expect them to win every game left, so that means the yare going to lose to a team that they shouldn't, it just happens eventually.

Talisca have been a very important member of the Al Nassr team and since the start of the season he's clearly the club's second best player after just behind Cristiano Ronaldo.
Al-Nassr can be said to be quite lucky because their old striker, who at that time was Talisca's main striker, was able to coexist well with their new striker Ronaldo and after almost two seasons, both of them are still productive strikers, although not enough to bring their team to become one of the teams that won the title champion.
In contrast to Ittihad who replaced Hamdallah with Benzema because both of them seemed unable to perform optimally, Benzema could even be said to be quite disappointing while Hamdallah started to return to his starting position and after a long holiday because of the Asian Cup he scored quite a lot of goals for his club, including when they beat Al-Fateh because Hamdallah scored two goals, but unfortunately the victory would not allow them to retain their title.
I would say Talisca is not exactly a striker. I have seen him play before as well, and seen him play here too, he is more of a attacking midfielder, a number 10, or at the best case we could say maybe a false 9 as well, but not pure poacher style striker as in what Ronaldo is doing right now. Things are not that easy to just label players but this is what I can come up with.

Obviously, people can disagree with me and call him a pure striker, but he does look to pass a lot more often compared to Ronaldo. When you put two players like that together, you end up with a good chemistry because one looks to pass, and the other looks to score, so they do go well together which helped Ronaldo to score a lot of goals without a doubt.
