Savings is the foundation for wealth creation. What strategy will we follow to either get rich or settle down low? A few generations ago, it was the savings made by the people and their hard work that made them rich. The scenario now is different, investment along with smart work makes a man rich. However, equal importance needs to be given to savings as well as to investing, because any form of investment has its risks. Based on the risk, there will be profitability as well as a chance of loss. Having savings will help us handle unexpected needs or compensate for losses when our investment strategy doesn't work as we predicted.
Investment begins with saving, if someone is able to set aside their income for savings then they have at least built a financial foundation to become stronger. A person will never be able to jump into investing if they don't have savings. I am sure that people who have a rich mentality will go through that process and of course it is not a loss if someone dares to do that.

The world is moving fast and has undergone a transition  where people have come to the mindset that without money, it is difficult to survive. To some extent, this is the reality. If we go through the history, we'll understand how good the people were and why they never wanted money. Soon after the bartender method, people started to accumulate for themselves rather than share and become self-reliant. This is where money gets prioritized, and we've got different ways of making money. Depending on that, we need to make the choice of whether we need more education or just the basics of reading and writing.
Currently, there are many necessities of life that are very expensive, even buying basic basic necessities is already expensive. In the past it was still cheap because not too many people were chasing wealth, but now there is a lot of paper money inflation that is happening and is also chasing wealth so that everyone needs very large amounts of money.
Humans have been dealing with transactions that require a medium of exchange as legal payment for a long time. In the past, it might not have been as difficult as it is now because currency and the value of goods were determined by influential institutions in the world, but were only limited to a barter system that required each other. Now everyone feels anxious if they don't have money because all needs are determined by money, so it has an impact on the order of life between fellow humans.
143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 24, 2024, 02:11:09 PM
For me, I think Barcelona will finish second in the La Liga table because Barcelona is consistent in all competitions now. Barcelona won against Napoli in the UEFA Champions League and also beat Athletico Madrid in the league. Barcelona's current form can guide them to win 80% of their remaining matches in La Liga, and they will not get a rival for the second position in the La Liga table.

Of course because the only club that was seriously competing with Barcelona has gone a bit weak in there performance which is Girona that is why if you check there points with Girona you will see the difference because if it was during the time Girona was still performing so good they would have been on the same points with Barcelona but right now with how improve Barcelona has been I don't think Girona can become a threat to them again unless they were unable to maintain there wining, so for now Barcelona has a very good chance of maintaining the second position till the end of the season.
The point difference between Barcelona and Girona in the league table is just two points in favor of Barcelona. If Girona were in form, they could have put pressure on Barcelona for the second position in the league table. Before Girona becomes consistent in the league, it will be too late for them to rival Barcelona for the second position in the league table.

Yeah that's the points I'm trying to make if Girona had been more consistent enough they would have been competing with Barcelona but right now I doubt if they can be able to come back to there normal performance they had during the beginning of the season because that's the only way they can become a threat to Barcelona but since they are not much in a good shape now Barcelona has taking the advantage to dominate the second position and like I already mentioned it will be very difficult for Barcelona to drop points because there target right now is the second position so they will try as much as possible to maintain it.
I'm starting to be pessimistic about Girona, indeed the team was quite phenomenal at the start of the season but they won't be able to dominate La Liga much longer. Now Barcelona is getting better and it looks like it will be difficult for Girona to stop them from finishing as runners-up. Girona must be aware of other threats from Atletico Bilbao and Atletico Madrid, both teams are chasing each other to achieve their target of qualifying for the Champions League next season. Therefore, Girona must be able to play well in order to stay in the top four and if this can be done then their achievements this season will be extraordinary.

Menghilangkan Korupsi sepenuhnya tidak akan pernah bisa dilakukan, tapi untuk meminimalisirnya tentu pasti bisa. Hanya saja untuk sekarang solusi tersebut tidak bisa diterapkan di Indonesia, mengingat negara ini menganut demokrasi, terdiri dari berbagai kelompok agama. Sehingga jika ingin mengurangi korupsi aturannya harus mengacu seperti di Arab Saudi atau hukum di Korea Utara. Sekali saja ditemukan korupsi resikonya akan membuat orang tesbeut atau pejabat tersebut jera dant idak akan mengulanginya lagi. Nah karena Indonesia tidak mungkin menerapkan aturan hukuman berat tersebut sehingga oknum oknum pejabat nakal masih merasa bebas melakukan korupsi dengan cara mereka sendiri. Bahkan kita tahu ada semacam kasus korupsi yang melibatkan banyak pihak atau intitusi negara dan hasilnya saling menutupi kebobrokan masing masing agar bisa selamat. Jadi tidak perlu heran mengapa akan susah menumpas tindakan korupsi di Indonesia.
Sebenarnya masih banyak cara dilakukan asalkan semua pihak serius dalam menangani persoalan itu. Saya pikir lembaga negara sudah cukup banyak dibentuk dan juga lembaga non pemerintah yang selalu mengawasi hal itu tapi tindakan korup itu juga semakin nenjamur saja. Saya akui negara sistem kerajaan lebih serius menangani persoalan itu dan hukumannya benar-benar nyata. Di Indonesia saya pikir tidak hanya lembaga pemerintah yang lemah tapi memang secara individu sudah krisis moral, tingkat tuhan saja seperti sudah tak ditakuti lagi maka siapa lagi yang mesti harus disegani maksudnya setiap orang yang diberikan amanah selalu diiringi oleh sumpah dengan keyakinan masing-masing.

Then, my reflection moved to the circumstances around the Professor. How much is the monthly salary of a Professor and other related allowances as are accrued to them in the midst of plenty. In fact, there monthly take home is meagre and is better imagined than experienced.
The worth of a man is not measured by material things or how they leave their lives, but by the there thinking faculty and what they have upstairs. Wealthy people always hide there identity and behave like a poor who doesn't have anything, but the poor remain poor because they pretend to be rich. And that will eventually make people not help them. So in my point of view peoples appearance is not determined by their aperance but what the have internally. That's why they said that you can not judge a book by its Cover.
Well yeah, that is what it should be. This also depends on where or what country that professor is in, wages are also different by countries. The story itself isn't that detailed so we cannot really judge based on that scenario because it might be that the car has been serving that professor for some years or that car is just a rental car or not even the professors car so hard to say something one sided. For me cars really does not define who we are or the capacity of our purses it is just the matter of preferrable choices. Poor people in America have cars on them though some are not but unfortunately here in my country being poor is really different and of course not able to have cars.
Yes, if you listen closely, it is difficult to draw conclusions from the story OP describes so it becomes ambiguous and gets wild answers too. But I want to answer that regarding style and salary, I think it is completely irrelevant. Every person certainly has a different standard of living depending on their mindset and environment, but that's not necessarily true either. What is certain is that everyone must first focus on their respective jobs. Signs must spend energy to measure someone's standard of living. Each job also has a standard pay, which is not determined by a person or company arbitrarily.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: Technology and work ethics on: March 20, 2024, 06:33:59 AM
I understand the importance of monitoring workers to ascertain there level of productivity, and to improve workers attendance and also enhance Cyber security but then, the inability of most management to go about this ethically has been of great concern to me.

What's your view about this?

Your concerns are valid but I don't see anything worrisome here unless you have a hidden agenda against the company. Apart from restroom privacy, I don't know any other privacy you want to protect again in the place of work. Moreover, employees are much aware of this technological devices installed in the company and you have the right to terminate your contract or even reject the job offer in the first place if you are not comfortable with it. The level at which employees mismanage company's resources and properties called for this CCTV monitoring and I don't think anyone who's willing to work accordingly would have problem with being watched or monitored through CCTV cameras.

I know it'll limit employees freedom but it's not necessary not only for staffs surveillance but for security purposes and increase productivity to the core. It save company's time and cost in case of incident because the defaulter can be easily identified. At my current place of work, there is no CCTV cameras yet but the CEO is always on unexpected supervision to various departments from time to time. I may not be comfortable with it but I still support it because I have seen how impactful it is to the organization. Without monitoring, some employees are just a liability to the company.
If CCTV is installed for something that is of informative interest to the company then it is fine as long as it does not harm employee privacy. I think the company also has ethical standards in monitoring every movement in the company, perhaps not only monitoring employee performance but also to build trust between people in the scope of work. I don't think there's any need to worry about this situation as long as we are always able to work professionally and don't have evil intentions that will actually harm ourselves.
147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: March 20, 2024, 06:17:48 AM
Liverpool were knocked out of the FA CUP two days ago, and were eliminated by Manchester United, who are only 6th in the Premier League and are distant from their good times

This makes me think that Liverpool are not as unbeatable as we thought
We've already commented here that the final would be Liverpool vs Leverkusen, and the English team's defeat could be a warning sign that the team could struggle in an important game. Perhaps Atalanta will be able to see what worked for Manchester and try to get a good result in a few days

In any case, I think I see Leverkusen as more likely to win the title than Liverpool right now, and you guys? Am I right or Liverpool didn't care so much about FA Cup?
Until now, Leverkusen is still unbeaten in the Bundesliga. But Leverkusen did not play as we expected in the last 16 of the Europa League. Because Leverkusen only qualified for the quarters with a fairly thin aggregate. So I started to think that Leverkusen had a weakness at the back. So I'm also not sure Leverkusen will win the title in the European League if they even have difficulty in the last 16. But regarding Liverpool I think they are still as solid as ever. Maybe they lost to Man United in the FA Cup but I don't see Liverpool losing easily in the FA Cup. So in my opinion nothing has changed with Liverpool's performance. So Liverpool might still be favorites in the European League.
Bayern Leverkusen this season has been able to appear impressive not only in the Bundesliga but also in the European League. In their last match in the round of 16, Leverkusen's performance declined slightly and they qualified with great difficulty, but even so, the players were able to work hard to seal a ticket to the quarter-finals.

In my opinion, it is not easy for Alonso to organize the starting XI because he has to share his concentration between the two competitions they are currently involved in. I probably quite understood the situation and the players seemed very tired. Yes, in my opinion, Bayern Leverkusen does not need to have full ambition in the Europa League because they really prioritize becoming Bundesliga champions, it is very unlikely that they will be able to reach the top in these two championships. But if it is successful then it will be a golden record for Bayern Leverkusen and Xabi Alonso.

Liverpool are always top and they deserve to get that if Klopp's plans always run normally, meaning there are no non-technical problems that could disrupt the Reds' performance.
148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 20, 2024, 06:03:52 AM
Yes it is evident, the person who says Ten Hag is successful maybe he is too fanatical.  Kloop has been Liverpool for almost 9 years and has plenty of winning evidence. So his coaching career I consider quite successful. As for Ten Hag, he hasn't given any evidence at Man United so he's not in good coaching at the moment. One game is not a measure of a coach's success. Even Kloop is one of the coaches that amazes me besides Guardiola.
Erik Ten Hag cannot be said to be completely successful because his coaching system is still said to be of a poor standard for a club like Manchester United. Comparing him with Jurgen Kloop, who has been at Liverpool for a long time, is ridiculous because they are both very different. Jurgen Kloop has been at Liverpool for a long time and has won an important title that Erik Ten Hag has never given to Manchester United. Even for in the Champions League Manchester United is so bad how can it be compared to Jurgen Kloop's coaching system which overall looks good in The Premier League and Europa League, shouldn't just because of one match everyone think it was Kloop's fault that Manchester United beat.

To be honest, I also don't accept that just because Liverpool was beaten by Manchester United, many people think that Erik Ten Hag is better than Jurgen Kloop, even though if you look at the whole match it is clear that Jurgen Kloop is clearly far above Erik Ten Hag. In fact, currently Kloop's coaching is the best apart from Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta because these three coaches are currently on the rise in the Premier League fighting for important trophies.
If you compare the achievements of Ten Hag with Jurgen Klopp, it would be very, very funny, both of them have different experiences and flying hours and I think it's really unfair.

Maybe what people mean is that Erik Ten Hag is one of the best Manchester United managers who was able to beat Liverpool. Maybe that is the meaning of the personal achievements achieved by the man from the Netherlands.

If assessed as a whole, then Erik Ten Hag has not at all succeeded in raising MU's reputation even though he has been given enough money to spend on the players as he wishes. In the two seasons he was at Old Trafford, he only managed to win one title, and even that was not a prestigious enough title.

Now if they really want good results at the end of the season then there is no other way than to improve and maintain their performance so as not to always lose points.
Their momentum is always good in a match but it is quite unfortunate that such things cannot be maximized properly by Girona because seeing from what happened during their matches they actually always have a good performance but there are always gaps that they cannot eliminate which makes their performance or their scoring productivity become disrupted.
At the moment, their chances are still very strong but indeed such things must be accompanied by positive results in every match they do so that their position is not too disturbed.
Currently, they have to give up the top position and second place although in the end this is not too surprising but indeed when looking at their performance at the beginning of the season about how good they were then it would be a shame if this season they could not be in the top 4.

Girona must focus their targets as best as possible, meaning they cannot lose any more points so they can finish the season in the top 4. Girona recent setback is quite unfortunate because many expected them to become champions this season. But in the second half of the season they were unable to maintain their best performance. Girona has so far suffered 5 defeats and 5 draws, although this record is quite good for them, but to stay in the top 4 of course they have to continue to win the remaining games this season.

The matches in the remainder of this season will certainly be quite difficult to predict because the teams in the middle of the table and the teams at the bottom of the standings will also show improvement in order to improve their position. Yes, Michel task will probably be more difficult when facing an equally strong team, so their path to securing a top 4 position still has many obstacles that they have to overcome.
I don't doubt that Girona has performed extraordinary this season, but their decline in performance makes all their fans quite worried because their chances of staying in the Champions League zone will be seriously threatened if their performance continues to decline. There are only nine matches left, which is certainly not an easy matter, especially since there are still quite tough opponents like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Especially against Atletico Madrid, Girona must win, but if they lose points again, the chance of finishing in the top four will likely be difficult to achieve because Atletico Bilbao and Atletico Madrid are hunting for that place too.
150  Economy / Economics / Re: When luxury becomes a necessity. on: March 19, 2024, 09:52:23 PM
Luxury is not a necessity. Prioritizing function over prestige, when you have money it feels like buying and using a sports car is fun and can amaze other people's eyes, but unfortunately the seats can only accommodate two people, and can only be used in urban areas. However, for me, who is married and has several children, it seems like an MPV type vehicle is more suitable for me to use, which has lots of seats, can be used both in the city and in the countryside. Apart from that, the price is also cheap and affordable.

For me, luxury will only complicate life and add to the burden. For example, when I buy a luxury sports car, I have to think about expensive maintenance costs and high taxes. Unless, we are capable enough for that.
luxury is not a demand but it is a standard of living that is a choice. It is normal for people who have financial affluence to buy lots of cars of various brands even though their function is the same and they are willing to buy watches at fantastic prices even though their function is also the same. So in my opinion life is just a choice and still use common sense when spending on things. People always have problems with their finances so that it impacts other things because they always push beyond their capabilities, which is very ridiculous.
151  Local / Ekonomi, Politik, dan Budaya / Re: BBM turun masyarakat sejahtera ? on: March 19, 2024, 06:27:23 PM
seharusnya kalau bbm mau diturunkan, ya semua jenis harus diturunkan, menurut saya harga bbm saat ini sudah sangat tinggi, jika bbm jenis solar ikut naik meroket otomatis semua harga sembako ikut naik, karna barang sembako semua dikirim dari luar kota, mobil pengangkut barang memakai bbm jenis solar, jadi harga pengiriman ikut naik juga, jadi di saat harga bbm mau di turunkan dari semua jenis, kemungkinan masyarakat bawah mengalami keringanan disaat berbelanja kebutuhan sembako sehari hari, jadi disaat mereka belanja mereka akan menyisihkan uang lebih hasil belanja untuk tabungan beberapa hari kedepan, tetapi kesejahteraan masyarakat juga tidak bisa jadi tolak ukur dengan harga bbm turun, adakalan harga sembako juga harus turun, seperti minyak makan, di pasar harga minyak lumayan cukup tinggi, sedangkan kebutuhan yang paling dibutuhkan oleh masyarakat di saat memasak ya minyak makan, disemua masakan pasti masyarakat memakai minyak, jadi bahan sembako juga ikutan turun biar masyrakat merasakan kesejahteraan disaat berbelanja kebutuhan pokok sehari hari.
Betul saya setuju dengan pendapat agan ini....
Tapi belum ada kepastian yang pasti dari mana berita nya tentang bbm akan turun kembali,karena jika harga-harga sudah naik biasa nya enggan untuk turun lagi,karena sudah mager disitu,saya bicara tentang kenyataan nya.
ini lah bobrok nya sistem pemerintahan kita, mereka tidak bisa menurunkan harga bahan pokok sembako seperti beras atau lainnya bahkan ketika harga BBM turun.  indoneisa terus mengimpor beras karena ketersediaan beras lokal tidak mampu memenuhi permintaan pasar namun biasanya yang menjaddi alasan beras naik adalah kenaikan harga BBM, maka itu suddha seharusnya pemerintah menurunkan harga beras ketika harga BBM turun, kita lihat saja bagaimana kerja pemerintah terbaru apakah mereka bakal mampu menyeimbangkan harga kebutuhan pokok dan menyesuaikannya dengan harga BBM.
Ketika harga barang sudah naik maka sangat sulit untuk kembali diturunkan. Efek naiknya harga BBM sangat berdampak luas dengan diikuti oleh barang pokok lainnya sehingga daya beli masyarakat menjadi rendah dan nilai uang semakin menurun. Mungkin menurut pemerintah hal seperti itu masih dalam batas normal padahal kehidupan masyarakat sudah cukup terdesak.

Pemerintahan yang baru kedepannya harus memiliki etika berpikir yang logis terhadap apa yang menjadi masyarakat bisa makmur dan sejahtera. Apalagi saya melihat di berita online, bahwa tahun ini Negara mengalami surplus yang lumayan besar. Dan dengan demikian maka pada Rencana kerja APBN 2025 harus benar-benar bisa melahirkan program atau kebijakan yang pro rakyat kecil. Semoga!

The cost of things has gone up so much so that it's glaring. Imagine paying 5-12$ for an average meal you could get before for 3$. The jump cost is extremely high. Cooking a meal at home can cost you the same amount you would spend on eating in a restaurant. Funny enough people still afford all these things without complaining. My anger is that we make money to spend it all into our normal life expenses. It's difficult now to save or invest unless you part of the rich people in society. An average man has to just eat, pay bills, and survive.
Now we no longer have to think about living according to the previous rules, when the situation gets worse then saving money and only fulfilling basic foodstuffs to survive is also very good. So I see now everyone feels the same way maybe only the fairly well-off people are not so affected. So with conditions like that, it's time for us to adapt without having to think about what of course there will never be a solution. Keep working and eating healthy food that doesn't need to be expensive, exercising and always thinking positively so that life will always be fresher.

I was really surprised over the outcome of the Liverpool and Man UTD FA Cup match because honestly I didn't see that coming. A 4-2 finish is something fans will be exhilirated about since Man UTD are showing them they've still got the stuff in them and this performance has pushed them to the semi's and I'm actually anxious to know who Erik's men will be paired against. At least they can hold on to this one since they aren't in the top three struggling for the trophy, of they manage to get past everyone and win this FA cup trophy, it can boost the confidence of fans.
 Liverpool tried all they could in that game and for the first time in a long while they couldn't come back from a defeat and the way the whole thing turned out it looked as if they were content to bow out of this one so they can focus on Europa and the League.
Jurgen Klopp's men were unarguably the better side in yesterday's game but at the end what matters is not how well you poach your enemy's defense, it's the three points that matters and I'm hoping they don't continue this way else they will have to forfeit their dreams of climbing back on top because they had the upper hand in the first half, but struggled to get a third goal that would have sealed their victory, instead bottled their chances when Anthony scored in the 87 minute.
This is the most exciting match this week in my opinion. The two teams exchanged attacks and the two coaches also battled strategies. Man United made an epic comeback twice, and in the 71+ minute both coaches made substitutions and both teams produced results, Jurgen Klopp's substitution was successful, while two of Ten Hag's three substitutions determined the final result 4-3 for Man United .

I think this is Man United's best game this season. If you start the season by playing with enthusiasm and never giving up like this, maybe the ranking in the EPL league will be different, not like now the ranking will be different. However, Man United's opportunity to compete in the top four is still wide open if they present games like this again in the remainder of this season.
I didn't see anything special about Manchester United's game, they were just luckier because the Liverpool coach was too hasty in making substitutions. Basically, Liverpool had enough control of the match and they were even able to maintain their lead until the end of the second half before the equalizing goal occurred. So Klopp's mistake in rotating players gave United players more freedom and more confidence because they were able to force their opponents into extra time. So in my opinion it would be an exaggeration if that was the best game from the Red Devils.
155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 17, 2024, 05:38:54 PM
Since Real Madrid won Girona, they have not been consistent in the league. I agree with you that Girona might play in the European League if they continue with their current inconsistency. If Barcelona overtakes Girona in the La Liga table, Girona will not handle the pressure from Athletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao to finish in the top four of La Liga.
This could indeed be possible for Girona, but to just stay in the top four of the La Liga standings, I think Girona will also be able to maintain this this season. Because remembering that currently Girona is still in second place even though they have lost at home to Getafe and even though Barcelona also has the opportunity to take Girona's position today. I still think that it will be a little difficult because considering that the opponent that Barcelona will face today is Atletico Madrid who will be the hosts of today's match.
For Girona, it is enough to think realistically that they have to be really strong to maintain their position in the top four. This season's La Liga title certainly belongs to Real Madrid. A difference of ten points seems quite impossible to recover unless a miracle occurs. Girona must focus and not be careless any longer, because the threat is starting to become real behind them. Atletico Madrid and Atletico Bilbao could ruin dreams because the two teams will be chasing each other to get into the Champions League zone apart from Barcelona who might end up as runners-up.

Juventus can no longer win and now even qualification for the next Champions League is starting to be in doubt.

They still have a decent lead in the standings but there are still a lot of difficult matches and above all direct games are away from home.

If Roma will win this evening the situation would start to get hot.

However, I don't think that they will sack Allegri before the end of the season, usually it never happens in Turin.
A nightmare is approaching the Juventus camp, eight matches with only one win is certainly very ridiculous for a team like Juventus. Instead of wanting to be a Scudetto hunter, you have to accept the bitter reality that now you are increasingly threatened with being in the top four. In my opinion, Juventus management should have been able to kick Allegri out without having to wait for the end of the season. I think that if Juventus' situation does not improve then they will certainly experience another big loss, namely failing to qualify for the Champions League next season. So it is appropriate for the coach's position to be replaced with another as soon as possible.
157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 17, 2024, 10:13:02 AM

One of their advantages is that they are better prepared than other clubs. Real Madrid is in a transition period now, they are rotating more and relying more on young players. Meanwhile, Manchester City, the squad they have has been formed for a long time, indeed there are some who have just joined, but overall this team has been formed for a long time, so that makes them more prepared and it is not strange that they have a more solid squad than other clubs.

However, we still can't underestimate Real Madrid, Real Madrid is the club that has the best mentality in my opinion in the Champions League, even though they have a lot of young players, but having several senior players in the team will help them a lot. in forming a stronger metallicity.

Now that they will face each other again, it is difficult to predict who will win this match. However, if you look at the opportunities given, Manchester City has a greater chance of winning. However, that is not a guarantee that they will really be able to beat Real Madrid.
In my opinion, the strengths of these two teams are not much different, they have players with almost the same quality. Apart from that, the two coaches on each team are also quite experienced figures, making this match difficult to predict.

Yes, if you look at it in detail, Manchester City is worthy of being the favorite. Guardiola has a squad that is quite capable because almost all of the current players are those who won the Champions League last season, meaning it is not too difficult for Guardiola to polish his players.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid is also not worth taking lightly, Ancelotti is quite skilled at managing his young players. Bellingham's figure will be the difference, he is really very influential at the moment in the Madrid squad. Maybe he will be very ambitious to win the title with Madrid so he will be very motivated.

In the history of the uefa champions league, the most important thing a team must have to fight till the very end is experience and quality,  and if you look at this arsenal side, they have the quality but they lack experience, that's where I think Bayern Munich would use to edge them of this quarter finals encounter.

If you look at arsenal performance in the past few games in the champions league, and especially against fc Porto, they were a bit shaky, I believe that, that is what lack of experience does, when in a major tournament like the uefa champions league, so I believe that their lack of experience will cost them this game against Bayern Munich, besides Bayern Munich is not a team to underate regardless of their performance recently.
Yes, it is absolutely undeniable that Bayern Munich is very experienced in this tournament. Historically, Die Roten deserves to be favored, they have players and coaches who also have brilliant experience, even though recently they have experienced a decline in performance.

Arsenal does not have a brilliant history, their best achievement was only reaching the finals in 2006 and being defeated by Barcelona. But even though they are not the favorites, I see something different about them this season, the Gunners already have quite experienced players, meaning their squad is no longer filled with young players with little experience. I predict Arteta's troops will make things difficult for Tuchel's troops.

I completely agree with you, and hope to see Leverkusen face Liverpool in the Europa League final this season. The impressive performance and mentality that Leverkusen showed when eliminating Qarabag, made everyone amazed by them. Xabi Alonso succeeded in instilling a winning mentality into his team, so that they were able to turn things around and qualify dramatically for the quarter-finals. Leverkusen luck continues, so they are able to become the only unbeaten team so far.
In terms of appearance and performance that has been seen at Bayer Leverkusen, it can be said that it is truly extraordinary, but when talking about match scores, I was even more amazed when I saw the number of scores obtained by Liverpool in the last 16 match. Even though the team they are facing is a very weak team so it is very natural that Liverpool can win with that many goals, Bayer Leverkusen also needs to be looked at because this team is also a very dangerous team in the Europa League this season because in the Europa League Leverkusen is still haven't lost, nor in their own local league.
No team is weak. It is just that Liverpool is in a super form ready to dismantle any club that comes across their way, and that is why you see that their matches look very easy. Leverkusen is indeed an incredible club with the way they were able to overcome their opponent, amd qualify to the quarter finals, holding on to their unbeaten record.

Of course, Leverkusen should have taken note of Liverpool and their aggressive ways of winning their opponents. Records about Liverpool is not new to them, and this is what will make the game very tough when these two great clubs clash with each other. I can say who will be the winner for now, but it is going to the like the finals, if not on the final day.
Bayern Leverkusen has been phenomenal since being handled by Xabi Alonso, he has succeeded in creating various records, making Leverkusen highly respected by opponents. But in this year's edition of the tournament I still choose Liverpool to be the best this season. The Reds have shown their superiority so far, and they continue to aim high in order to create a sweet farewell to Klopp.

I agree with you, I believe Arsenal are a good team but they are not yet the team to compete in the Champions League and win the trophy. They might not fare too well against tough opposition in the Champions League. To do well in the Champions League tournament or to secure the final, the best performance is required and we may not be seeing that best performance from Arsenal right now. We could see PSG with Manchester City Real Madrid Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Don't be too quick to judge and now all the teams have reached the quarterfinals. Arsenal does not have a satisfactory reputation and it has been a long time since they reached the quarter-finals. I have another view and the Gunners look like they will explode in this tournament until they reach the final. Bayern Munich is indeed very strong, in the past they even created a unique score in two legs against Arsenal with the same number, namely 5-1 with a win for Munich. But this season the condition of the German team is starting to decline a little so Arsenal has the opportunity to beat them.
