But who would get the other goals though if Salah and Darwin have no goal involvements?
Salah subbed out in the 60th minute for Harvey Elliott, No goals for him and a poor performance.

Just the lucky goal from Nunez still.

I think after seeing the leaks that Salah and Nunez are starting that we will level Sheffield to the ground tonight.
Sheffield not  bowing to the supremacy of Liverpool, 70 mins into the game and Liverpool have one goal, the same as Sheffield who have so far defended well.

Klopps agenda will just be to win this game, even if they do not score many goals, because it looks unachievable at this point.

Now I started to think about the real life UFC, maybe this is even happening underground and we don't know?
This is another version of match fixing, and it can be happening under our noses without you having an idea about it.

 Gamblers are at the disadvantage because they never know when these things happen and in a situation where you bet against the house you lose all your money regardless of the statistics that your choice has because even the fighters in this sort of match fixing are very aware. A fighter who is a known loser, may have been loosing and then be fixed to win in a fight where everyone least expects, in these fights, they have the biggest odds, and when they win, the fixers make lots of money as well as those who bet on them, and the fighter.

You were bang on for Saka. I never thought I would see the day he is dropped from the Arsenal squad, usually he plays if he can stand on his feet. Means either he is seriously injured or Arteta finally figured out that he needs to give the guy a break here and there.
We have players who are fit, it is bad managerial decision to keep stressing our key players especially with how important it is not to loose any game until the end of the season. A serious injury to any key player entirely ruins the plan for the season.

Saka is not completely injured, but he is not fully fit either. I suspect that against Brighton, he will not play full time, but will have some game time.

Saliba and Gabriel deserve some rest too. I am waiting for Timber to be fully fit.

Pep roulette is on again, nobody is safe from now on  Roll Eyes
Will Pep ever rest Rodri?

I expect a shitload of points from Salah, Darwin and Saka -
From Salah, yes!
from Darwin Nunez, still a 50/50 chance, he has a reputation for missing goals.
then for Saka, he did not look very fit against City, Not sure he will have enough game time or even play at all against Luton. We have more difficult games upcoming.

LFC will want to reduce Arsenal's GD advantage by a bit and tomorrow is the perfect game to do so.
Arsenal have a chance to make it difficult for LFC to catch up on GD when they play Luton today, before LFC meet Sheffield tomorrow. Sheffield are the last on the table, but can be an upset for LFC.
165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What was your latest big win from gambling? on: April 03, 2024, 01:42:52 PM
I really want to know how you do feel after your latest big win.
It is easier to think you are going to act in a certain way when you have no money, but huge and unexpected money can bring out a side of you that you never expected to see the light of day.

I have not recently won any huge money from gambling, but when you win big, there are chances of you becoming more reckless with gambling because you believe you now have enough money to risk gambling. It is the wrong reaction from a gambler, unless they don't need the money won, because a wise gambler should maintain their stake, while using the money won to pursue other investments outside gambling that will be beneficial.
166  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why technical analysis is not reliable on: April 02, 2024, 04:37:48 PM
1.it is based on assumptions about past market trends, gotten from the past market price and  volume data
It is exactly because majority of traders see these past trends and know these past market trends, that makes it relevant. Traders see it and understand the implication on the market, and the appropriate reaction to it.

Do not trade against the trend, the trend is your friend.

3.Technical analysis will not provide the full details of the market,  that is putting economic and global events into consideration,
This is why every trader should make it to habit to always verify the trend of the market through technical and fundamental analysis and not just technical analysis alone.
167  Other / Off-topic / Re: The challenges of protecting children from gambling on: April 02, 2024, 03:07:09 PM
Just that the government do not care if children are gambling in your country.
I cannot find the topic exactly but I am hoping the OP of that topic sees this and highlights the post that I am about to make reference to.

We had a discussion about a country sometime ago where the government do not have any problems with the citizens gambling but heavily frowns against any form of gambling promotion either online or offline by any gambler or person. If governments of other countries can adopt this kind of policy, Gambling shops and outlets will be forced to take off their billboards and signpost, and it will to a good extent protect the underage from being exposed to gambling.

children are becoming too smart and inquisitive, so I was just thinking about the possibilities of protecting children from getting involved in gambling.
As a parent or a guardian do not try to hide what gambling really is from your children because they will still get to find out and if you are not quick to let them know that gambling should be for fun and should be done responsibly at an age and time when someone has the money to spare for it, some of these children will learn from outside from other people that gambling is a way to make money putting them at the danger of addiction.
168  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Networking of Bitcoin and bringing Investors onboard is succeeded by testimonies on: April 02, 2024, 02:38:03 PM
This is a really long story that must have taken more than a year from start to present. I bet you did not get engagements because some forum members do not like to read these kinds of very long posts that are stories, while there are also others who may not believe you because some details sound over cooked.

For how long exactly have you been investing in bitcoins? Before or after you joined this forum? @OP

It was amazing to see my asset growing which attracted me to keep holding, buying more and accumulating.
Thereafter the portfolio of my holding has smiles more than my job could be.

You failed to mention the lady you claimed to have met that contributed to helping you increase the investment you made in bitcoins from your last post that also talked about networking from just eight months ago.
Quote
I literally told her I needed to upgrade my invested capital on my BTC investments at an average of 0.20 BTC currently worth $5,217.8 to booster my target on  a diversification and also an efficient interrupted device (laptop) is required for a proactive networking system.
Oh yeah. behold I got my wishes granted even beyond my expectations as she has gifted me  a pair of K2 boots, a Gucci foot wears (Pam's) and a HP laptop/capacity 4GB/250HDD.

169  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: DO NOT BRAG ABOUT YOUR BITCOIN on: April 02, 2024, 11:26:02 AM
It is important you do not brag about success. Don’t share how much you have with others. This should be obvious, but there are people that may not be so excited for you. 
There are many things that you shouldn't speak about, things that you should keep privately to yourself, like the exact amount of bitcoin or a suggestion of how many bitcoins that you own.

Leaving suggestions of the amount of bitcoins you own can make you a target for whichever of the people you call friends and entertain or even family members to prey on, and you may never know until your bitcoins are gone.

Tell people about bitcoins, but don't over share and leave suggestions of how much you have been able to accumulate.
170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is lack of proof a problem for you or not? on: April 01, 2024, 03:31:30 PM
Have you verified that the online casino you are using now is verified? How can you tell that its verified because there is no proof of verified shown to the public.
Most gamblers don't concern themselves with trying to verify the casino they play in before they start playing in a casino. If it is the most popular casino around them, they are usually influenced by the crowd to gamble there. Some gamblers gamble more in a casino from recommendation, than from personal research.

Do you think that if all online casinos can tender some proof of being licensed all it reduce scams in online gambling?
The thing remains that we can never always fully trust any kind of proof that will be tendered, it can be manipulated, or the casino may even change in behavior after a while of acting good and getting all the customers.

Do not get relaxed gambling in a casino. follow up the news with them, so that you will be amongst the first people to notice if they start giving too many problems to too many customers.
171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Local/Traditional Gambling Spots on: April 01, 2024, 11:27:24 AM
Have you visited the traditional gambling sport  in your place? How do the traditional gambling games and spots in your country look? Have you gambled the local way?  How was your experience, then?
I have seen older people gambling, and playing these games that you have mentioned, but not all gathered in one place. If there was a place like that around me, I would never know because I am not sure I will be very interested in regularly visiting a place where only old people come to gamble, I could get older faster.

If I start staying only in the company of old gamblers, I know there will be a lot to learn from them, but not where I will always want to be.
172  Economy / Speculation / Re: Your educated guess on BTC price at the end of 2024 on: April 01, 2024, 09:32:23 AM
The proper place to discuss this is the speculation board, I see you are new, so I will give you a link to it so you see similar discussion about people’s speculations on what the value of bitcoins will become.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=57.0

Also, there is no level of educated guess that can give an accurate prediction on the value of bitcoins by the years end, no one knows and any figure given is just a mere prediction.

174  Other / Meta / Re: Can the Admins sent a mass voting PM to know when did people find out about BTC? on: March 31, 2024, 09:26:12 PM
about 4th halving countdown and your stories on when did you heard about bitcoin. I was thinking for this upcoming halving, can bitcoin talk send a mass emailer or a vote option to all registered users to gauge when did they first heard about bitcoin?
Do you think the admin of this forum are idle and looking for more activities to complicate the already tight and busy schedule with forum and other life activities? @OP, I am sure the admin needs more time for rest, than extra work time.

I don't see any need for your suggestion by the way, It is a forum for discussion, and it is okay for these kind of topics to be discussed openly not the Admin sending PM's.
175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is A Beacon of Hope for the Present and Future on: March 31, 2024, 09:13:57 PM
Bitcoin carries with it the hope for a more equitable and inclusive future.
There are many individuals who never imagine them self to be able to have something to invest in because of their very little source of income. Some of these people have engaged in activities like gambling where they know that they can win a fortune and change their story as a way to maintain hope about the future. Bitcoin provides this sort of hope because proper discipline investing in it even with the little source of income can be a way to financial independence in the future. It is a reason why many young people especially are adopting it, not as a get rich quick scheme, but as a way to be rich.
176  Other / Off-topic / Re: Can family members help a gambling addict? on: March 31, 2024, 08:31:35 PM
~
If a member of the family is a professional with helping people recover from addiction, they can help. But since addiction is a serious issue, unprofessionals  may never be able to help.

Family can help you with moral support, if you have taken a decision to help yourself, they can motivate you and give you a reason to want to meet up with your target of unshackling yourself from addiction.

But before you discuss addiction with family, know the kind of family you are from, if you have a supportive family, it will be helpful, if your family is unsupportive, external sources will be the best to seek help.
177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would you dispose of a steel plate seed backup? on: March 31, 2024, 08:21:05 PM
Any more ideas?
Many ideas have already been shared, and I know someone who was looking for options already must have seen an option they like, but since we are still sharing ideas on it, I like to be creative and share another way you could dispose a steel plate seed backup.

Throw it into the sea or the ocean if you stay close to one, it will take a 1000 years before it will be discovered, and even if it is found at the bottom of the sea, it is totally random, and the people who discover it may never have a clue what it is.
178  Other / Off-topic / Do not make gambling the only activity you do for fun. on: March 31, 2024, 07:43:10 PM
Gamblers who make gambling the sole activity that they can have fun with will quickly transform into addicts, this is the exact thought I had today.

Gambling  frequently either for fun or to make money is a certain way to get addicted.

If you are gambling for fun, It will be better to have many other activities (options) that you can catch fun on, so you do not always have to gamble whenever you think of having fun. 

What do you think?
179  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the current bitcoin bull run confirmed now ? on: March 31, 2024, 07:13:10 PM
Is this the sign of current bull run. Or we can expect even more movement and then the bull run will be confirmed ?
We are in the bull season, but it is not without the reality that there could still be some kind of market pull back before the halving occurs. Investors in bitcoins should always be prepared for a pullback in the value of bitcoins because it cannot always be bullish even if we are in a bull season.

Prepare for the emotional aspects of investing in bitcoins, so you do not make a wrong investment decision.

Shouldn't you know as an Arsenal fan that Arteta will play Saka even if he's broken his knees?  Smiley
He played Saka but we see how ineffective he was. Arsenal should have won that game but they missed many chances. Gabriel Jesus dancing with the ball when he should be shooting cost Arsenal the chances they created, and then the poor decision made by Trossard when he had the chance.

Haaland marshaled again by Gabriel and Saliba cleaning up, Declan Rice keeping tabs on Kevin De Bruyne was also effective.

We did not win, but it is a good result that we were able to get a point from this game where almost everyone expected us to loose, because of the dominant statistics that City have over us.

Liverpool to me do not look like they will be able to keep winning till the end of the season, the title race is still open.
