There is no debating the fact that Salah is a world star player but as a professional, he should be considering his age and how long he has to play too. If he decides to make a move from Liverpool, I think it will be difficult finding an European top club that will be willing to pay as much wages as he would desire and a suitable Champions league club that will need his services.
Moh Salah won the best player award but now he is starting to lose this title since Liverpool's performance has declined. At the moment it is unlikely that European clubs are interested in Salah. The possibility is close enough to be carried off by the Arab League club. Given his current position, it would be ideal if the Arab Club eventually made him an icon there.

Does not rule out right? that Moh Salah in the Arab League can fulfill his high salary.

Arsenal was defeated 1-0 in the previous match. Arsenal players will have to avenge the previous defeat. I expect Arsenal to win 2-0 or 3-1 today. Looking forward to seeing Arteta's match strategy.
Well the first leg result (which was a defeat for Arsenal) is inconsequential to how this match tomorrow is going to go, nor would it have anything to do with the outcome, this is a different game and we should forget about the first leg whilst talking about this one. Having said that, Arsenal know how important it is for them to be victorious tonight, victory would take them 5 points ahead of City, and that is a great advantage for the Gunners. Arsenal are definitely going to be on the front foot from the beginning of the game, and Everton would defend deep in their own half and box, Everton's best result tonight would be a draw, but for Arsenal, only a win would do.

Arteta will target victory because whether he wants it or not, his last match with Everton is quite a concern. What's more, Arsenal also need to widen the distance from Manchester City. 2 points is not a safe capital for Arteta to stay at the top of the standings. So I think eventually Manchester City can take the top position again like last season.

Again it's all about the mentality and consistency of the players. In this case Arsenal's burden is heavier than Manchester City.

Have you checked your attitude towards money lately? What is "your dream"?  bigger home, a bigger car, private schools, branded drink, gold?...
Incidentally, 1 week ago I decided to move from a rented house in the city center and returned to my hometown because I had finished building the small house of my dreams with my wife and children. This made me think that for 1 whole year I spent money on renting a house that I couldn't own. Decisions had to be made which turned out to be costly in the city, making spending even more wasteful.

For now, 2 wheel transportation is enough for me. Owning a car is ideal, but the taxes are much more expensive. Reducing unnecessary purchases makes me feel more economical. The cost of living in the village is quite economical and so far I know the difference between the cost of living in the city and in the countryside.

The Champions League ahead of Leg 2 later, of course I'm very optimistic that Real Madrid will qualify on paper. Moreover, hosting Liverpool at the Santiago Bernabeu is a big advantage for Madrid.

But on the other hand the clubs I want to see are Dortmund, Benfica, Bayern Munich, Man City, Tottenham, Napoli and Inter able to secure a place in the last 8. That way it will be very interesting when these clubs can face each other. Given the current strength of each club, it is guaranteed to provide a surprising game.

Chelsea are losing again, in fact, the results are just terrible, and Tottenham are not in the best condition either. Will Bowley let Potter continue this terrible streak? The strangest thing is that Chelsea stopped scoring goals...
This February, Chelsea were only able to make 1 goal and it ended in a draw. So there's no reason to keep a coach who can't make a difference. It would be nonsense if Chelsea insisted on keeping a Graham Potter. From any point of view it was declared a failure. And if it is true that Potter has not been fired, then the risk of destruction not only from the club but also from the internal aspect as well as the trust of his supporters will decrease.

The defeat to Tottenham was clear and I saw the spectators also leave the stadium even though the match was not over. It all signifies public disappointment at Chelsea's poor performance so far this season.

I did some research and the results were all different, and since this will be my first Bitcoin halving since becoming a part of the Bitcoin ecosystem, I'd like to know if it's really possible to know the exact date of the next halving which is to happen in the year 2024.
I'm sure everyone will be united in saying that no one knows the exact date when the halving will occur. Because even if there is research from various articles in the end everything will end in wild speculation or maybe some analysis will still end the subject without a definite date.
After all, it doesn't matter when it happens because there is no point in not collecting Bitcoins. Halving will be very special for those who hold it.

For that, if you believe in Bitcoin then start cultivating it from now on.

Today Liverpool faced Crystal Palace even though without a goal which should have been put to good use. With inconsistent performance, I doubt everything. Regardless of how this season has been, Klopp and his troops have still not been able to collect even 1 point even though the opponent is Crystal Palace.

It's very interesting to see Liverpool, who are a few weeks away from facing Manchester United. If the situation cannot be fixed, of course this is a big loss because they are a club that is as unlucky as Chelsea.

The bankruptcy of a company shows a gap that can indeed be repaired in the eyes of people who are able to see it from a different angle. For business people, this is a challenge in itself, as well as testing their credibility to show what needs to be improved from this flawed system. Every gap there is always a way to be repaired and for business people this is commonplace. But of course, it all does not escape the big risks. Let's say a businessman has many investors, by fixing the loss gap he can attract investors who have worked with him for a long time so it's easy to lose their money. He is risking a proven reputation in the eyes of investors.

Both FTX, Voyager Digital, Three Arrows Capital, etc are sectors for the entry of new investors who have invested large amounts of money and are able to attract the public to rebuild trust.

-Asernal is also facing Leicester City today and I for once am very confident about Asernal winning because in all their previous matches arsenhasave has t failed to deliver so this match won't be any different.
Leicester don't seem like the favorites at all in today's home match against Arsenal. We know Arsenal are better than their performance, that makes them expected to play better and win their match. But either way, Leicester had to do something in his favour today and avoid more defeats and bad results.

Arsenal have also not been very good in their last few matches, but they have been quite good in the match against Aston Villa which ended 2-4. Arsenal are the favourites, but Leicester are not to be underestimated anyhow.
I agree that belittling Leicester City or the club just because they are weak doesn't mean they don't have something to defend against. Sometimes this also backfires on Arsenal, here on the other hand they certainly need to score more points but their path has not always been smooth sailing and we have seen that against Everton. Arsenal was made unable to score a point at that time. So this can also apply to Leicester City because when everyone is making Arsenal the favorite, the surprise comes from Leicester City.

Agree with you, if MU has risen like in the days of Sir Alex before, it will be a big threat to English and European league teams, the proof is that now Old Trafford is haunted for visiting opposing teams, the atmosphere is like before, different from coaches Previously, when dealing with MU, it was very easy for the opposing team to steal points at Old Trafford. MU has the potential to become European and EPL champions if you look at current developments.
I understood that the strongest hold of Erik ten Hag is discipline and hardworking. In every match the work rate of those guys in the middle are very high. Players like Fred, Casemiro and Bruno have very high work rate in every match and that pressure us what the opposing team always find difficult to handle successfully.
Before the arrival of Erik Ten Hag, players such as Fred, Malacia, Lindelof, Pellistri and several other players were considered not too promising when they were on the field. But after Erik Ten Hag came in and did a lot of experiments, rotated player positions, and he dared to take Maguire from the main squad to back up. He understands a lot for the good of Manchester United. Substitutions become more effective and have the potential to get quite a lot of roles.

Based on these experiments, Erik Ten Hag got a variety of player formations and was able to show strategies that were difficult for opponents to guess. In other words, now Old Trafford looks more alive in the hands of Erik Ten Hag. He can be considered successful in waking The Red Devil from his long sleep.

Another crazy transfer again from Chelsea because they want to sign Kendry Paez from Independiente del Valle aka Ecuador club. He's currently 15 years old, but the contract he  will join Chelsea after he's already 18 years old, so Chelsea is really looking for long term journey since they have no problem to wait for next 3 years. I don't see any statistic about this player, but he's playing as a midfielder.

It is amazing how Chelsea is working with the new management.
It's clear that they are thinking about the future, hiring many new players, even players under 18 years old, for possible valorization, generating profit for the team, and also to have an excellent and young team in a few years.
I couldn't find the value of Kendry Paez, it shouldn't be higher than the value paid for Andrey Santos, it should be a little less.
If I had to guess, I would put something like £8 million.
Here is a video where you can see a little bit of how he plays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asD8fT42248

Independiente del Valle is a team that will participate in the Libertadores 2023, and they regularly play this competition (they won the South American cup in 2022) and they will probably take advantage of Kendry Paez at some point, since he still has 2 years and some months of contract with the team, before going to Chelsea, so it is good that the player can already participate in important and international games, arriving even more prepared for the Chelsea team.

Looking forward to seeing the Chelsea team in 3 to 4 years.
Chelsea program is for the long term. Last season Manchester United, Arsenal, and Barcelona did the same by signing talented young players. Perhaps the problem now lay with Potter. Chelsea's future depends on how Potter manages players going forward. Even though at the moment he is very doubtful because he is unable to produce good results, in my opinion, everything takes time to make the squad ideal. Another solution is to replace him with a coach who is able to develop young players like Arteta, Xavi or Erik Ten Hag did.
1552  Economy / Economics / Re: Rules of Taxes on: February 24, 2023, 06:38:27 AM
I mean this tax regulation seems uneven and it seems that people who have to pay taxes are people who deal with large amounts of money. Let's say a farmer in 1 harvest (3-4 month) earns $2000, he will remain tax free if not registered or he doesn't register it whereas an employee from the start is already registered with the taxpayer even though their monthly salary is $300. What do you think? I'm a little confused with this tax rule.
Maybe we have to look again at how the tax regulation is applied for several groups and the percentage they get for 1 year. So income tax will refer to annual profits, some get 5%, 15%, 25%, 30%, and 35%. for example,
in 1 year income reaches $0 - $4000, then the tax rate that you get is only 5%.

So, we only need to look at how much the profits of farmers and employees are for 1 year, even though each of them gets 5%, the amount to be paid will be different.
Farmers earn $2000/4 months x 3 (in 1 year only harvest 3x) = $6000
taxes paid = about $300/year
Meanwhile, employees earn $300/month x 12 = $3600
taxes paid = $180/year

Both are still included in the income tax range of $0 - $4000, so each is a 5% maintenance tax.

The case of Chelsea is different, there is a clear anxiety on the part of all the fans to know what can happen to the team, they have some formidable players, but they don't know how to put them to play so that they have favorable results, good ones are already needed results, I don't know how Graham will do, but there is already some gossip that he could be replaced, personally I would not want it to be like that, I would like the team to be able to raise its head under Graham's leadership, I hope he can move the team forward, he has All the available material has a well activated Enzo and a Joao Félix eager to be the best.
I know this may be a difficult period for Chelsea and for Graham Potter who continues to be criticized for not producing good results in several games. Maybe more precisely after the world cup Chelsea did nothing but lose. I think the players currently at Chelsea are outstanding, but back to the leaders themselves. Results are still results that will be judged by the public, when Graham Potter is unable to provide good results, whatever the conclusion will still be negative.

I wouldn't be surprised by the rumors of him being replaced, because that's the insistence of fans who are tired of seeing their teams lose over and over again.

We will see 16 clubs beat each other to get a place later. Of the 8 matches that will be held, the match between Manchester United and Barcelona is the match that attracts the most attention. They have the same aggregate because in the second leg they could only draw 2-2. It will be a tough game for both clubs, I won't be surprised when this game has to be settled on penalties later. learn from their matches in the first leg, maybe in the second leg the same thing will happen, but there are some changes that will be made by the two coaches from each club.
The big match that will take place at Old Trafford will create a very hot atmosphere because it is a gamble for Manchester United to win a landslide. Barcelona will definitely start the game fast and Erik Ten Hag can't afford to let his guard down this time. Manchester United's defense needs to be installed with the right players, so there are no blunders in the penalty box. If Manchester United is able to balance the game fast as Barcelona did, the results will be more favorable for the red devils.

Manchester City did not play badly in the first half, but they conceded in the second half. Leipzig defended well and did not concede many goals, which is a success for them. I won't be surprised if we see a surprise result in the second match. Everyone thinks that Manchester City will easily win their home game, but if Leipzig has a good strategy, they can win the game
Leipzig are not a bad club, but like everyone else I think they will be unlucky in the return game. Manchester City have played poor away games recently, but they play much better at home. Although even in the last match their stats were better than Leipzig's. I think they can win the next game, although I agree that the unexpected outcome of the match cannot be ruled out.
Leipzig success in holding Manchester City to a draw is proof that their club really has the motivation not to be daunted by Manchester City's achievements. From these results, it is certain that leg 2 will be a mature consideration for Leipzig. At least they are very careful even though it is difficult to beat Manchester City at home later. Pep Guardiola said they were disappointed with this result because they saw that their players were not very effective in attack. Haaland also did not perform optimally in that match. The absence of Kevin De Bruyne has had a major impact on Manchester City's attack sector. Mahrez needs the right ball supply and that has to be Kevin De Bruyne.
1556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: February 22, 2023, 09:32:04 PM
RB leipzig seems to implement a new strategy for the second half. they became more aggressive in building attacks. and this thinking is quite effective. and the match got very interesting in the second half. I hope Man City will also increase their aggressiveness and return to building a pretty good attack like in the first half. RB Leipzig was several times able to build attacks that were quite dangerous to Man City's goal.
So far the second half has not stood out, I mean Leipzig is playing well and is still able to provide a solid defense, maybe their front line is not too sharp, but the back line can still block Manchester City attacks. Manchester City played without De Bruyne so their line of attack was not too aggressive. More than 15 minutes into the second half, the attack activity built by Leipzig trying to penetrate Manchester City's back defense continued. Until finally they succeeded and evened the score. Man City looks to have decreased in terms of attack intensity.

One thing you need to remember, investing in a centralized exchange and not withdrawing it to a cold wallet will only make you sell it quickly when there is an increase. If you really want to invest long-term then the decision is to keep it in a cold wallet as long as possible. I've seen people say they're investing but their assets are still on the exchange. Remember do not store your assets there if not traded. Investing means that you save for a certain period of time, so after buying, don't look at the estimated balance too often. Buy, withdraw and store in a safe place, forget about market rates and continue to accumulate with the DCA method.
1558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 22, 2023, 07:32:57 PM
Potter is the choice of the new owner of chelsea, so they should have no regrets. From the background they should have understood, Potter didn't have a great history. He has no achievements so I've had doubts from the beginning that he came.  Today with new players den has ordained huge money, but they haven't gotten any good results. Of course the dismissal option is pretty good, there are many coach options that haven't worked. Pocethino, Tuchel, Zidane, Enrique, Loew these are the best options at the moment. Even though tuchel is an ex, I think he's got better.

Rumours have it that a percentage of the dressing room are not happy with Potter which means he is having a division within his team, that could also be a big issue if true and we know how this things works with players not fully committed and ready to work with the current coach in a team, it is certainly going to cause problems. We saw it happen with Ronaldo and Erik Ten Hag, Chelsea players and Jose Mourinho. I think the best option for Chelsea right now is to replace Potter.
In my opinion, it's not Graham Potter who doesn't suit Chelsea, it's just that the quality of an English team that already has a name is of course the big responsibility of the coach. This is where Potter's capacity is actually not qualified, he is still far below the standards of existing Chelsea coaches. Maybe he can still master clubs outside the Premier League, while Chelsea needs a coach who is really ready to continue, not ready to build from scratch.

What we are seeing now is Potter pushing himself too hard at Chelsea and insisting he is capable but he is not. Chelsea's owners must be prepared to risk a setback, because they wanted it from the start. Leaving a competent coach like Tuchel only for complete control then this is what happened. However expensive a player is, in the hands of an improper coach, they will become dull.

Liverpool had good opportunities in scoring 2 goals in the early hour of the match, with this opportunity it would have been so difficult for Real Madrid but Liverpool was unable to defensively by not giving Real Madrid a chance to score a goal.  Liverpool started well but couldn't maintain the game they started well.

Real Madrid performance was very great, I never believed they would be able to lead the game with massive goals. The victory has shown that Liverpool is having serious problem that will be difficult for them to defeat big teams. The first and second goal of Liverpool happens to be a mistake from Real madrid goalkeeper,  these point he was in a confused state to save the ball.
However, this result has made Real Madrid's record meeting with Liverpool remain the same. which is always won by Real Madrid. In fact, in the early minutes Liverpool did appear so confident and Liverpool's attack was very organized in the early minutes. So the opening goal in that game I think is very beautiful. But Liverpool lost their composure in the tempo of the game after Real Madrid scored a goal back. and Liverpool are indeed weak in defense. but I think in the second half Liverpool will have a new strategy. but it turned out they didn't make much of a difference so Real Madrid could score more goals.
After Liverpool failure at Anfield and the very unexpected result in the first 15 minutes, many thought Real Madrid would lose. But I know how Real Madrid made the second half a real game. My bet from the start ended in a satisfactory result. This is the game we need the most in the Champions League.

Make no mistake, Madrid will always surprise in the second half and has always proven that whenever under pressure, comebacks will exceed their opponent's expectations. Liverpool themselves, they are playing better than in the Premier League, but what needs to be realized is that their opponents are more extraordinary.

Well the best bet for Chelsea is to allow Potter manage the team till the end of the season, though the club is not doing well now in term of scoring goals, personally I will attribute the club failure partly to ill luck and hurriedly assembled new players who might needed some time to blend together to form a formidable squad, recall Chelsea signed a lot of players this January and having watched most of their matches both UCL and EPL the team isn't performing badly in term of possession only their final third has not been very effective, however once the team resume their winning mentality they would surely remain consistent.
The only option really has to replace Potter, I know he still wants to prove to the fans but if it continues with bad results then this is not a good choice to keep a coach who really doesn't match the capacity Chelsea wants. Actually, there is no reason for Chelsea to be in a bad zone because they have quality players. Only one thing was out of sync, namely Potter was not able to develop the skills of the players. So that it looks monotonous, with not much aggression in the midst of intense competition.
