I think it is time for PSG to change their transfer policy, because it has the potential to violate the FFP and is at risk of possible sanctions, if continues to buy players at high prices. Building a squad filled with star players does increase the bargaining value of winning trophies, but if it is not managed by the right people and supported at the right time it is the same as zero, we have seen the lineup that PSG has built containing Mbappe, Messi and Neymar on the front lines. In fact, almost every line they had was filled with big names, but in the end they failed to achieve success in Europe.

Luis Enrique has the ability to present the Champions League trophy to PSG, and this has been proven in his previous period with Barcelona. I also believe that Enrique can do it again with PSG if he is trusted in a long term project. We know that winning this trophy is not easy, that's why PSG management must give Enrique time to build a squad that has the mentality of winning in Europe, like Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

PSG, are big money spenders but they should be wary lest they fall under the hammer of the FFP. Yes, signing big names aren’t bad but they could cause a worry for the team especially if they’re not managed properly or they end up signing the wrong players that doesn't match the teams standard.

 Well sometimes, big names requires some special sort of management so as to be able to achieve success and this could be likened to PSG's past squad with names but yet were nothing when at the big Europe stage. Luis is quite good but I think he needs to build his own squad so as to achieve massive success. Winning the UCL ain’t one big deal as he can achieve that same way he did at Barcelona but he needs all trust and confidence from the board so as to build his own squad and win the necessary trophies.

A slight correction in that Inter will be playing against Atletico not Real Sociedad as they were already in the same group before which meant Inter finished second and Sociedad will face PSG in the last 16.
Inter and Atletico at the moment they can still be said to be a big match because after all, currently Inter's performance is in good shape and Atletico also they are actually quite good when compared to the previous season, this season they are better because they are helped by the presence of Morata and Depay for their attack line.

This will be a big match in the round of 16 because after all in terms of experience they can still be said to be balanced, in terms of the quality of their players is also not much different so this is still a fifty-fifty.
As for Sociedad at the moment they are indeed a dark horse club which is indeed very good even they can get the top position defeating Inter, Benfica and Salzburg who are subscriptions and I think being in the round of 16 with group winner status for a debutant club is quite impressive for Sociedad.
Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid are scheduled to face off in the round of 16 of the UCL. Judging both teams, they're good in their leagues. Even though Inter are at the top of their league whilst Atletico aren't, both teams still have the capacity to make the game fierce for themselves. Both managers are good too and have got experiences too and their squad are good in their own separate ways.The game would be fierce, predicting a winner would be difficult and definitely both team odds are high.

 For their domestic leagues, Inter are still on top and there's not really much threats because they're able to subdue other teams even though the games are sometimes tough especially for Juventus following them closely, they've got a work to do to stay on top of they really want to lift the trophy. For Atletico, they've got 3 teams ahead, so their struggle will only be to finish in the top 3/4 spot because currently they've not gotten any glimpse at the trophy and I doubt that the teams ahead of them will give them the leisure.

Leverkusen is currently improving its performance and we cannot deny that their excellent consistency has still kept them in first place for quite a long period of time. However, we also admit that Leipzig is not an easy opponent to beat, and is indeed considered a top club in the Bundesliga, although recently, its performance has not been that optimal and has only experienced defeats and draws that could actually be optimized.

However, we will not know whether Leipzig's performance against Leverkusen will be the same as yesterday or whether
Leverkusen is currently still quite consistent and their performance has not decreased so I think they might be able to beat Leipzig even though they have to fight harder because the opponent is quite tough, Leipzig is not an easy club to beat because as you said, Leipzig is an elite club. Bundesliga from season to season and Leipzig's performance is also not too bad so Leverkusen must be careful in this match to achieve the expected results.

I think Leipzig's performance is a little different because this will be held at Leipzig headquarters. Of course Leipzig is at an advantage and home strength makes Leipzig much stronger, but Leverkusen is also strong in the away game so Leipzig cannot underestimate their opponent in this match and the two teams will fight fierce in winning, I am very curious about Leverkusen performance without its mainstay striker and against Leipzig, will Xabi Alonso be able to maintain his club consistency in this match because Bayern Munich is really waiting for Leverkusen to slip up.
Losing key players and still performing is one big thing that big clubs do and Liepzig has proven to be one big club. Yes, they lost most of her players but still maintain standard as a club and even perform better.They made important additions that have really helped in this team’s stability. Though they’ll be facing Real Madrid in the Round of 16 and they don’t stand a chance. The fact they’ll probably be getting back to the UCL next season is a win for them.Against Leverkusen I think Liepzig will have to put in enough efforts in this match and there'll be a slight chance of survival in the game.
 
 Their visitors aren't a small side, they're bent of chasing the title to the last and so it's expected that the intensity will be high being that Leipzig are the visitors and won't want to embrace a loss in the game either. For me, I still think Leipzig no matter their playing condition are still a valuable club in the German league and European contests generally. They've proven their worth in most of their games this season and it's an addition to their quality.

The decision to part ways with a coach is undoubtedly a significant and sensitive matter. Football management decisions are often based on a combination of short-term and long-term considerations. The Roma management believes that the team is not on track to meet its season goals or that there are systemic issues affecting performance, they saw the need for a change.

If there are concerns about the team's ability to achieve this under the current coaching setup, the management may feel compelled to make a change to salvage the season and maintain their competitive edge. The manner of Mourinho's departure, particularly if it occurred over the phone, is indeed a topic of concern. Dismissing a coach in such a manner can be perceived as disrespectful. Handling such decisions with professionalism and respect is crucial, especially when dealing with a coach who has made significant contributions to the footballing world. The objective is not just short-term success but also long-term sustainability and competitiveness, and these factors may have played a role in the decision to part ways with Mourinho.
One thing to note is the fact that yes a coach is paid to play a role in every team he manages but sometimes there's always a situation where the coach performs his role rightly but still the team sulks in backwardness and unending defeats. It's pretty unfair that the coach should be held accountable for all the wrongs the general team is involved in.

 Every member of a ten is paid to deliver positively and so when the coach is at fault, he should be proscribed, and when the players are at fault, they also should be dissed. A coach only manages, developing the right strategies but the players are the ones on the pitch to implement the developed strategy. They all have the collective effort of performing well for the team. Either the player, or the coach or both parties can generally be the fault in every unfavorable game outcome.

Lose against a club with a better quality was a common thing but roma was still sitting very close to the top 4. It was a stupid decision to sack mourinho. The stupid club like roma can only know that how to win without even considering how much funds must be allocated to strengthen the club.
This is the main that has been occured and it's pretty hard to be solved. People were thinking de rossi was not the right choice and roma will be declining even harder. Roma never puts respect on its coach. No doubt that mourinho being sacked when he was only making a little mistake.

Roma is still playing in europa league too. It's still a big achievement for a poor club who is rarely funding its coach to buy the quality players in the market. No doubt that many people are feeling so angry.
Some said that if mourinho deserves to be sacked but is there a guarantee if de rossi can do better than mourinho? I don't even agree with the decision to sign de rossi as a new coach.
It has been making so many fans were feeling contradicted with it. It is worth mentioning that there are several YouTube videos where a large number of people have expressed their disagreement with the decision made by Roma.

Roma never solves the problem owned by the club like having player which was injury prone like dybala. This guy was only playing a few times in the big matches.
Roma are a good side. Their manager Mourinho has some kind of special ability to raise up a team into a pretty much successful squad. Even with the loopholes they're faced with, he's still been able to help the team stand out in some games. Injury has definitely been a number one deprivation of a team's performance but the manager has been able to make do with the players and squad he's got available and even though not perfect as expected, they're not relenting in their efforts.
 
 The European competition would definitely favour them, they only need to strive to win a ticket. Good thing also that their striker is at his peak performance and he's always capable of delivering the team to victory in dire moments. I'd admit that the team and manager are very much compatible maybe it's the resonance that's natural or maybe Mourinho's great coaching ability at work but at the moment, the situation in the team is in safe hands and patiently and gently, they'd stride to the spots they want to be even though they've got at hand tough team challenges to conquer.

Trabzonspor will definitely provide obstacles for Galatasaray to get full points in this 21st round match, after all, Trabzonspor is also team that is currently in third place, even though the point difference with Galatasaray is very large, they can really make things difficult for Galatasaray.
If the match actually ends in draw, you can be sure that Galatasaray will be further away from catching up on points from Fenerbahce, who are still at the top of the standings.
I agree that if the match results in draw then it is an opportunity for Fenerbahce to take control in the title race this season.

Trabzonspor have home game and this is great opportunity to produce win and pressure Galatasaray for various points.
For Besiktas itself, it looks like they will succeed in shifting and occupying third place because in their match they will only be playing against Pendikspor, which is the bottom team.
Dispor themselves have only been able to have 3 wins so far and they will never have the ability to be able to fight Besiktas.
Besiktas is one team in the Turkish League that are to an extent doing well for themselves. Even though they don't get to have a spot in the UCL, they still try their best to earn a spot in the UEL  and while at that segment of the European tournament, they do their best to gain good results. Besiktas being one of the top teams in the league still has the tendency of rising to a better stance. The team is set to make a positive turn around in the team and their game play will be improved too. We hope to see the new Besiktas a few days and weeks from now and see the difference they'd make.
 
 Fernabache and Galatasaray are good teams with good quality of players and both are capable of making the contest tough. But we await who'd be the greatest of them all. They are making the struggle for the league trophy more difficult because they are giving thesame victory energy and aura, the points gathered, the goal differences, they're seemingly the toughest team in the league and their victory is so certain. In a long while in the Turkish League, deciding the league's winner will take a while because these two teams are good at what they do. They're making the league's football more fun especially when it has to do with these two teams.

The loses from Real Madrid at Super Cup makes some people starting to speculate about Xavi future this because they didn't accept that loses moreover before lost from Real Madrid Barcelona also unable to performing well at Copa Dey Rey although at that time Xavi played some of Barcelona key players just like Lewandowski and Raphinha but Barcelona only able to win with narrow scores against 4th division team FC Barbastro so if want his position is still safe as Barcelona manager then Xavi should be immediately to solved this situation and bringing Barcelona to return to the winning ways

Barcelona currently at 4th place with 8 different points below to Girona which is the team in the first place so a bit difficult for Barcelona to pursuing Girona and Real Madrid for race title so it's normal if people starting to worried Barcelona will be unable to defend their title but Barcelona sport director Deco has been says Xavi position is still safe and he wouldn't be sacked but Barcelona have to gets positive results for the next several matches just like against Unionistas de Salamanca CF at Copa Del Rey or against Betis in Laliga and if Barcelona lost again from those matches i am sure Xavi will be sacked
Barcelona's performance are not even encouraging, they're behind their usual style of play. This definitely isn't the usual Barcelona of past seasons. Their performance hasn't really been encouraging and even though they're a better side technically to other teams, it's just a number of uncertainties that are present. The players and management teams aren't really at their best and it has to be corrected.

 In the round of 16, they are up against a tough opponent, they've got enough weeks to prepare hard and build strong confidence ahead. They really can't afford to take a bow out of the contest at this stage. Although it's unpredictable but they're definitely boasted of to scale through and they have the right player quality too. Just a bit of increase in performance is needed. Although, their games in the coming weeks are definitely awaited.

Yes, I also really miss the Saudi League playing again, but what can we do, we have to be patient and wait, of course even though currently the Saudi League players are relaxing, it would be better if they prepared themselves with training and of course it will definitely produce stamina and good performance. Yes, the elite teams have to perform well because their competition when the Saudi League starts will definitely be tight, especially as Ittihad will of course start its first match after a long holiday and Ittihad will face Al-Ta'ee, even though Ittihad can be said to be superior to Al -ta'ee but of course we won't know because sometimes Al-ta'ee's performance might be better because of the long holiday. So indeed, having training like that will definitely make the team's abilities better and no longer stiff when the match starts.

It looks like Al-Hilal's match against Inter Miami in the Friendly match is also getting closer and of course you have to start practicing now.
Likewise with Al-Nassr who will face Shanghai Shenhua in the Friendlies match so they definitely also need to train from now on so I am amazed by the Saudi League team who are training.

Yes, of course in the next match there will definitely be a fierce match because of course all teams want to become champions this season. Yes, I also can't wait and want to see the match.
Based on the agenda of the Saudi Pro League striving to create visibility and awareness in the European space with the major goal of ensuring an expanded sports market, the clubs find themselves in a situation where there's less utilization of local players. These players have no doubt some certain level of effects to a club but the aims of these clubs won't allow for the players to be used. It'll only make sense that a policy be put in place for the use of local players in every team but I don't think that'll be enough to take them to where they visioned the league to get to.

 SPL wants to be broadcasted and be seen worldwide and this makes for the rapid purchase and push for European stars who'd cause focus to gradually be shifted to their league. If the local players are entertained, then there'd definitely be no room for this hot caked stars in Europe and in the long run, it won't give them the focus they want to get. All things in the SPL currently occurs as a planned activity, and they are all working towards a set goal. It's only a gradual process before the impacts are seen.

It was surprising match result because many football fans and Lens fans initially expected the match result to be at least draw so that Lens could maintain its position in catching up.
But in the end, Lens home match meant they were embarrassed because they lost by 2 goals without reply and this was result that really could not have been imagined from the start.
The look on the face of Franck Haise, who is the Lens coach, looks very disappointed.
He hopes to share the points but has to accept that the team he built has lost points and has the potential to experience decline in the current standings.
On the other hand, Lens also suffered loss where their mainstay defender Gradit received red card, losing one player in their back line made the game even worse and Lens playing style was like team that was in disarray because of the emptiness at the back.

Next, Lens will face Toulouse and they should win even though this is Toulouse home game.
No one can hope for Toulouse to win the match because Lens is also team that is actually not that weak..
Well Lens are pretty good this season but I don’t see them being able to match up with PSG . Though being defeated by 2 unreplied goals is quite crazy especially in front of your home fans. I think PSG dominated this match and had everything working for them.The red card for Lens was quite crazy and that gave PSG, the edge over Lens because the victim was one of Lens solid defender who holds the backline. The emptiness was a strength for PSG to seal the win with a 2nd goal.

Lens faces Toulouse, away at Toulouse and will be all out for the win against Toulouse so as to maintain their stand, but I don’t think this will be quite an easy one and could maybe end in a draw. Although Lens are more favorites to win Toulouse so if I'm to stake on it,  to b on a safer side I'll bet Lens to win or draw.
1510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 17, 2024, 10:32:29 AM

I think so too. Both Liverpool and Man City will be the tightest competitors in the EPL with a very small point gap. So we can see that if one of them slips even once, it will really benefit the other. Man City experienced a decline in performance when several of its main players were injured for a long time, especially de Bruyne. But now, Man City has returned to normal. With the hope that the contribution of all Man City key players, including de Bruyne in particular, can really bring Man City back to being as strong as before. So, the competition between Man City and Liverpool will really be exciting.

On the other hand, Arsenal seems to be starting to move away from the competition due to some of their performance which has declined quite a bit since the middle of the season. Arteta has several times not been able to get his team to achieve the victory they should have, and instead experienced failures that were actually unnecessary. In this case, Arteta must work even harder to rebuild Arsenal and compete with Man City and Liverpool for the EPL title. Oh yes, regarding Aston Villa, this was really unexpected because they also turned out to be progressing very well. However, when compared to Man City and Liverpool, it looks like Aston Villa still has to try harder. At least, them being in the top 3 or getting into the UCL is something that is definitely very valuable.
Manchester City and Liverpool are the only serious competitors we’ve got for the EPL right now and funny enough these are the 2 consistent teams we’ve got over the past 4 years in the English league. Now any slip from any of both teams will be a big boost on the other and each team will want to try to make sure all her players are sound and injury free so as to always be battle ready.

 The race will be interesting and fun to watch especially for football lovers around as this could probably be one last keenly contested title race between these 2 teams in a while. Arsenal with her injury problems aren’t seen as title contenders anymore but rather as top 4 competitors and they should be careful how they go on because they could move off that spot if they’re not being careful. Aston Villa aren’t a match for Liverpool and City but could probably be giving in a fight to get a UCL spot and this is one team Arsenal should be wary off because currently I don’t see Arsenal being better off than Aston Villa.
1511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2023 on: January 17, 2024, 10:14:12 AM

 I was starting to get impressed by your analysis about how the 2024 AFCON is playing out with the tantalizing surprises the smaller teams giving us not until to the end part of the analysis of which i strongly disagree. as it stands in the various groups Nigeria has 1 point after a 1-1 draw in the match against Equatorial Guinea meanwhile Ghana who played against Cape Verde lost in that match which ended 1-2 in favour of Cape Verde. Ghana is without a single point as at the time am writing this whereas Nigeria has 1 points to start with in their group. so i wonder how the Nigeria super eagles are worst of to their West African counterpart Ghana. except you are implying that Zero is now bigger than 1.

Now by this am not implying that am impressed with the result of the match Nigeria against Equatorial Guinea but in contrast to the situation of the black stars of Ghana Nigeria has something tangible to start with and if you check exception Cape verde every other team in that group A is with just 1 point, Ghana -1.
AFCON is majorly full of surprises and in African football any team could give the bigger team headache on the pitch of play. As we saw the 1 goal a piece draw played by Super Eagles real crazy, unfortunately the Black Stars of Ghana fell to a 2-1 defeat by Cape Verde and that’s quite crazy. Well I'm fully aware that the upcoming fixtures would be filled with more suprises and I can't wait to see how it unfolds.

 These results makes both team looks small and really shapeless but let’s see how their subsequent matches plays out. With this result, I think Nigeria is more better than Ghana and could offer something in this competition than Ghana. But I believe both teams will pick form and get serious when they realize the competition has kicked off already.

Respected and? Is that enough if he cannot do better than Jose Mourinho? Lol I would love to see his experience in the coaching game. The management must be really inspired by Xabi Alonso, they also wanted to explore and work with a young coach, the season still has good number of weeks ahead, it's either they do better or go down sinking below.

At least when I e looks back at what Jose Mourinho has achieved, he made great memories with em. The club at some points didn't provide him with the lads he wants.
He got to the Finals last year and also won them the UEFA Conference League Competition during his first season.

Feyenoord anyways was a team Jose Mourinho would have defeated because he's done it before, the plans they had for the top four just didn't get actualized. Godspeed with Jose Mourinho in the next phase. ( Saudi Ways? )
Xabi Alonso is really doing well with his Leverkusen side especially as the club’s got confidence in him and are willing to give him necessities and get the signings done. This is one thing that adds to the criteria of a successful coach, getting your required signings and getting the desired results with them. And to be honest Xabi has proven that he's ready to make a name for himself as one of the most successful managers in times to come.

 Jose tried to get this club to her first European trophy in his first season and the 2nd season lost in an European final. This season the clubs seems to be struggling especially as they’re not achieving credible resultss to help them secure the top 4. Well Jose still has whAt it takes to be very successful especially when given the necessary signings he wants and I think he’ll move to Saudi and establish himself there.

The game has come to an end, and Juventus emerged victorious with a score of 3-0. Right from the start, it was evident that Juventus had a strong determination to win. The team was in high spirits, playing on their home turf, which added to their advantage. Comparing their current performance, Sassuolo seemed to be struggling and not in good form, making it less likely for them to pose a significant challenge to Juventus. I wasn't expecting any surprising outcome as I knew Sassuolo would find it challenging to defeat Juventus in their current state.

some people were hopeful that Sassuolo could secure a draw, pointing to their previous victory over Juventus in the first leg. However, I had confidence in Juventus maintaining their winning streak. It's difficult to imagine Juventus faltering in any game now, given their solid performance and determination..
Juventus have once again thrilled their fans at their home ground by trashing Sassuolo 3-0. This result wasn’t a big surprise especially as Sassuolo have been pretty poor lately, However I love how Juventus used Sassuolo misfortune to their advantage and are fighting seriously to close the gap between them and Inter Milan,  there's still hope, a big hope for Juventus in winning the league, but If they don't work harder to achieve it then  their rival Inter would definitely win it.

In this match, they struggled to hold possession or even have some nice shots on target. To those who predicted a draw, I think this match should send a warning signal that Juventus are in for the title and they could maintain this win streak and go on to challenge for the title. Now over to Inter Milan because Juventus are quite fierce and have a solid tEam that could pose a serious title threat.

So far I don't really follow player transfer rumors or developments, so I've missed a lot of gossip or rumors in the last two weeks.  reading this post, especially regarding the development of Benzema and Firmino, does this mean that Chelsea is targeting them.  Or, this is just rumors and gossip or could just be speculation. I really don't know, and haven't kept up with developments for some time.  However, if it is true that he is linked with Chelsea, I wonder if there are not other options that are younger and can be used for at least the next 1 or 2 seasons. because for me, that is more logical and ideal.

A few weeks ago, Osimhen was linked with Chelsea and I thought that if the player was willing to move to Stamford Brigde it would be better for Chelsea even though it would have to dig deep into their pockets. That doesn't mean I'm saying that Benzema can't be relied on, if he is really linked with Chelsea. It's just that you have to take into account the age factor and how much money Todd Boehly has to spend. if the option is a loan player and the costs are low, it is quite logical and ideal. However, isn't Benzema's salary fantastic at Al Ittihad? Likewise with Firmino, which teams are interested in him. Is he still linked with Chelsea, or are clubs in Serie A still interested in his services.
By the way, it seems like I also have to start digging up the latest information regarding developments in rumors and player transfers. Well, let's just wait for developments regarding Benzema and Firmino.
Well the move of Firmino to Chelsea could probably be a rumor especially as Chelsea is a squad of youngsters and wouldn’t need a Firmino or Benzema. Yes the two are quite good and have good experience but I think they’ll prefer having a young striker with lots of potential than these two. I think Manchester United are the ones that are more likely to sign Benzema, the rumors are everywhere and I think it might come to psst, based on  Manchester United's history of signing older experienced attackers during the January window on loan, but in Benzema's case they could buy him completely.

 Osimhen moving to the Bridge will be quite better than the 2 amd I know the Chelsea boss doesn’t mind splashing the cash. Financially the option of these 2 isn’t a good one.Well money could be the difference here and that could attract Benzem or Firmino to the bridge, so we’ve got to wait till the end of the window to see what happens.

I mean there are way too many bad teams in the league right now, it is obvious that they are dealing with a situation that is going to be a lot more different. To be fair, Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are the only good teams in the league this season and there is no doubt about that, the yare just way too good. This doesn't mean that all the other teams are always bad, sometimes they are better, but this season those are the only two good teams.

This results with shocking draws or losses by those two, because they look like they may actually win against everyone else, like literally just beat everyone else, and I mean championship will be decided by which one makes lesser amount of mistakes this year, and that is very difficult for the teams.
The Turkish Super Lig is one league that's been having a wide point margin between their title holder and the other teams but this season both top teams have actually been playing averagely and their end result is more or less thesame with a difference in just the goal margins.
It's not so bad though but it'd mean that one team would have to put extra work to their game delivery if they want to secure the trophy.
 Fernabache and Galatasaray are good teams with good quality of players and both are capable of making the contest tough. But we await who'd be the greatest of them all. Besiktas on the other hand are trying their best in what they do, they still have greater possibilities of excelling in the league and when efforts are out in the team, it'll yield good outcomes. Galatasaray and Fernabache are making the struggle for the league trophy more difficult because they are giving thesame victory energy and aura, the points gathered, the goal differences, they're seemingly the toughest team in the league and their victory is so certain.

 In a long while in the Turkish League, deciding the league's winner will take a while because these two teams are good at what they do. They play to win, and their next league game would undoubtedly end up as a victory for them both because their opponents are the opposite of them in all aspects.They're making the league's football more fun especially when it has to do with these two teams. We await the challenge amongst themselves and we're anticipating the winner. Do not be surprised though that the points will be shared eventually by both teams.

Xavi and his team have played their best performance and I see that they have played optimally, especially in the final match, it is impossible for them to play not seriously, it's just that what you say is true, they still have shortcomings in their defense which are easily penetrated by Madrid players so defeat is inevitable, Xavi has also implemented a good strategy, but they still lack players in the front line who rely too much on Lewandowski, who in my opinion looks old enough to be a striker.

But even so, at least this final match will be an evaluation for Barcelona to improve it because there are still many titles they can still chase, Laliga and Copa del Rey because I'm not really sure they will last long in the UCL, so I think they have a chance to win Laliga and Copa Del Rey titles, even though it seems difficult and requires hard work, look at last season where they managed to win the Laliga title. I think Barcelona must remain confident to get the title this season.

Being 8 points adrift of Girona is certainly a tough job in Laliga but Barcelona still has to consistently stay on the winning track until the end of the season if they want to win the Laliga title as well as the last 16 of the Copa Del Rey. At least they can get through to the final and win the title even though Madrid will be competitors. which is hard for them.  Wink
Last week Barcelona were able to get a win against Osasuna to earn a ticket to the Spanish Cup finals where they had to face Real Madrid. Their game against Osasuna was a bit tough but in their best way, they were able to secure the win. Madrid themselves were able to deliver a good victory against Atletico Madrid and their subsequent performance in the contest is seemingly promising.The two rivals at the finals Real Madrid and Barcelona were tough on each other. Twas an El classico game and so the heat was intense.

 Even though Barcelona themselves weren't performing near to the rate of Madrid's, they still did their best to keep up in the game. They've only got to work on their confidence and charisma in the game, the UCL tournament is still heated up and they've got to prove their spot there too.

I think it's too soon to make predictions for the three big clubs, we will never know the development of other clubs which may have surprises for the three clubs above, although I'm sure Manchester City will go smoothly to reach the UCL final this season but I think they should be able to overcome Copenhagen in the round of 16 because they also should not be underestimated. Every club that qualifies for the round of 16 is definitely not a club that is usually easy to beat. Manchester City will definitely have difficulties too.

I'm not sure that Madrid and Munich will run smoothly until the final, I think there will be a meeting between the three later, especially since Manchester City's meeting last season eliminated Munich and Madrid before the final, it looks quite good, it's just Madrid and Munich this season have talented new players who make it possible that there will be fierce competition if the meeting occurs again. I also hope that in the final Manchester City will meet Madrid or Munich.

But maybe that will happen again if they don't meet in the semi-finals or quarter-finals. I think there will probably be a big club meeting in the final. So far, these three clubs are the most favourites, but there are other clubs that cannot be ignored either.  Wink
The UCL round of 16 is sef to kick off next month and for some teams, it's going to be a serious tussle and for some it'll be a minor jump through to the next stage. Judging based on team strength, City has a better chance to advance than Copenhagen, so does PSG, Dortmund and Bayern. For the remaining fixtures, the teams are strong and the result is just unpredictable.

 Arsenal and Porto are in good form, same performance range, the probability is shaky, thesame with Napoli and Barcelona. For Madrid and Leipzig, one would say Madrid are in a better position to advance but the German side shouldn't be underrated though, they're also good in their own way. For Inter and Atletico, it's going to be a serious battle, none of them would allow the other to just go freely without making it tough. Hopefully these teams would use their home advantages wisely and to the best of their ability too.

Porto had a very easy victory in that game, I had a lot of doubts about whether or not I should bet on Porto and given the amount of indecision that was going through my head I ended up deciding not to put Porto in my parlay, but I was very surprised by With this result, I expected it to be a game in which Braga would be able to cause a lot of headaches for Porto, I expected it to be a very balanced game. but it seems that Porto in this game came with too much force for Braga to handle. Congratulations to Porto for the victory in a game that was supposed to be a difficult game, with this victory Porto continues in the race for the title and knowing that in the Portuguese league as long as we don't see a big difference between the top team in relation to Porto, we won't be can rule out Porto as likely champion



Chaves 0 - 3 Sporting CP

In the last 3 games Sporting's attack is unstoppable, very often they have managed to score at least 3 goals, in this game they managed to score 3 goals and didn't concede a single goal, with this victory Sporting remains at the top of the table, I keep asking myself Whether this season they won the league or will waste this good opportunity. Be that as it may, they are having strong competition, with Benfica being very close to them so that a small mistake would cause them to lose the top spot and consequently lose the title. We'll see how long Sporting can stay at the top, I bet on Sporting to win, I put them in my multi bet and with their victory they gave me a good profit


Benfica 4 - 1 Rio Ave

As expected from Benfica, they won very easily, I watched this game and was a little worried when the opponent scored the first goal, but given the pressure that Benfica's attack was putting on, I was hopeful that Benfica would score more goals any time, so when Benfica scored a goal it made me feel more at ease that my bet wouldn't be lost, and when Benfica scored more goals I soon stopped watching the game because I saw that they had already won the game and that there was no chance of the opponent reversing That result, congratulations to Benfica and may we become champions this season.

In the Portuguese league, there are teams with higher impacts in the league games and European contests too. Benfica, Sporting, Porto are most impactful in this regard. For Porto, they're doing well in the league and also have good performance records in the UCL too even though they weren't able to keep up with their good performance in their last league game which wasn't so acceptable. Same applies for Benfica and Sporting who's got their own record in the European cups too. Benfica did well at securing the three points in their last game with a good goal margin. It only shows how set they are for the task put before them.

 Although a lesser performance wasn't expected from them though but they're definitely a stable team in the league
The league seems less competitive though as there are still weeks left and just these 3teams are trying to make good wave in the league. Over the years it's still these three that have been the most talked about because of the feats they've attained. One would be so sure to bet on these teams and their ability to keep progressing in points in their league games.

It was a very complicated game for Ajax, despite having great possession of the ball, the opponent was still extremely lucky when it came to scoring goals, first Ajax scored a goal, but then the opponent scored a goal and the game was tied, ajax scored a goal again and the opponent also scored the second goal again and with that the game was tied, I even thought that the game would end in a draw, when ajax scored the third goal I still kept thinking that at any minute the opponent would be able to score the equalizer. Fortunately, Ajax came out of the game with victory, and with this victory, Ajax is 5 points away from reaching AZ. Man, what I see in the table makes me laugh a lot. Until a few months ago Ajax was in the relegation zone but today they are close to position 4 and with a high probability of finishing in position 3 or 4. I must congratulate the Ajax coach who is doing a good job



Twente 2 - 1 AZ

Before this game started, I was very convinced that Twente would win this game, I couldn't see Twente losing, that's because Twente are having a good campaign this season, they have had few defeats, I would say they are consistent, unlike AZ that the last few games have been inconsistent and they came into this game having lost, that's why in my opinion Twente would win that game and that's what happened, it's funny that AZ scored the first goal and very early, I confess that yesterday when I saw that AZ I was ahead, I wasn't worried because I was convinced that Twente could still reverse the result. with this victory, twente remains in third place while AZ remains in position 4 and with the risk of ajax passing them

Feyenoord 2 - 2 NEC

wow, it was a game with a lot of goals, but it was a disappointing game for Feyenoord, who in the 1Half ended with them winning 2 - 0, they are very close to winning the game easily, I even thought that in the 2 half they would be able to score more goals , but I didn't think they would tie the game, in the 2 half NEC did very well as they managed to score 2 goals to tie the game. With this draw it becomes clearer every day that PSV are already champions this season. I honestly don't see any team that can surpass PSV in the table
The Eredivise is competitive no doubt and consistency works very much for the teams there. It's winter season and so the teams ought to brace up to gain enough grounds ahead of post winter break. PSV and Ajax are doing explicitly well in the league as they've been able to keep up with game victories too.
For Alkmaar, they're lagging behind and it's really taking toll on them and their points on the league table too.
 
 They've just got to find a balance and get back to their pace. Their league isn't even as competitive as other European leagues as there are just a few teams that are tough in their play. They can still meet up with points and stay at a good spot on the table too. Congratulations to Ajax and PSV, they're good and are growing better gradually regardless of the little loopholes that they're having too.

Yes, I also really miss the Saudi League playing again, but what can we do, we have to be patient and wait, of course even though currently the Saudi League players are relaxing, it would be better if they prepared themselves with training and of course it will definitely produce stamina and good performance. Yes, the elite teams have to perform well because their competition when the Saudi League starts will definitely be tight, especially as Ittihad will of course start its first match after a long holiday and Ittihad will face Al-Ta'ee, even though Ittihad can be said to be superior to Al -ta'ee but of course we won't know because sometimes Al-ta'ee's performance might be better because of the long holiday. So indeed, having training like that will definitely make the team's abilities better and no longer stiff when the match starts.

It looks like Al-Hilal's match against Inter Miami in the Friendly match is also getting closer and of course you have to start practicing now.
Likewise with Al-Nassr who will face Shanghai Shenhua in the Friendlies match so they definitely also need to train from now on so I am amazed by the Saudi League team who are training.

Yes, of course in the next match there will definitely be a fierce match because of course all teams want to become champions this season. Yes, I also can't wait and want to see the match.
The SPL league are on break at this point and it’ll e preferable these players use this time to train well and harder especially as how competition will increase when the league resumes. Al Ittihad and Al Ta’ee will be one match to look out for. Especially as the later won’t be taking the match lightly knowing the former’s performance this season have been quite poor. Al Hilal and Al Nassr’s friendlies are getting closer and I believe their players are seriously training for these matches to make the team and league proud.

 These matches will be quite fierce as it’ll be a big boost especially for the league of the winners so are pretty important and the players for this reason are real serious about it, cause the rivalry with both team is getting intense and none would want  to lose to another even though it's just a friendly match.
