161  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between females and males, who are more resistant to gambling losses?  on: May 06, 2024, 03:32:38 PM
Although some woman are strong but majority of the woman population have weak emotions and that is why I feel they will easily give up on gambling because they hate to continually loss and the second point is that since women have weak emotions, they can easily get addicted to gambling and can often practice revengeful gambling.
Most women are not gambling. Women are weak and that makes them not to like to gamble because women do not like to lose. With all the news we have been hearing about gamblers, in out of 10 news, hardly will you see it related to women. So because of this I will say women are better.
I think we've had a topic that's similar to this particular topic of discussion on the gambling thread before which is why I was surprised to see that the thread started today. It's not a good idea to keep creating generic topics when the actual reason of such topic have been discussed before.
That being said, I'll make my contribution concerning the subject matter and here is what I think about who are more resistant to gambling losses between males and females. Right from the time gambling started, it's always been an engagement that is majorly practiced by men but because of the the civilization and exposure that women of modern age have been exposed to, they tend to know and engage in gambling. But despite their exposure to gambling, they're not still mentally strong enough to handle the effects of losing in gambling like men do. Women aren't wired to be emotionally strong like men and that's why they're always finding it difficult to manage their emotions when they lose in gambling
162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: May 06, 2024, 03:22:02 PM

Yes before anything else, it's advisable to always acknowledge and recognise the level of risk you're willing to take and be sure you don't exceed that level, to avoid risking more than one can afford to lose.
Not just in gambling, but in every area that involves putting or staking money. This often helps to keep the person in charge of your decisions and to always manage one's emotions regardless the nature of the situation.
In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you'll want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of what you're doing and how you're doing it.
By realizing yourself first from the start of the attitude and habits that are done that can make you consider your safe limits to do something including gambling that is done.

It may be very difficult because sometimes even though we have planned from the beginning but sometimes there are some things that we cannot avoid happening in the worst possibility but at least with this we can minimize in terms of losses even though surely in the end talking about gambling finally has to lose but we don't regret it too much because we already know that and have used a budget that we already realize that it is to make us happy and we are ready to lose the money.
Gambling in a way that will always make you happy is the best practice and not to gamble and start feeling remorse of your actions, because you did not gamble with the amount that will not affect your emotions. Having a gambling budget is the best and the moment you have exhausted the budget, you should know that it is quitting time and you gamble only when you have refill your gamble budget.
Some gamblers gamble with more than their initial budgets which in most cases is caused by their refusal to quit after they must have lost all the money they initially budgeted before engaging in their gambling activities. After losing more than they can emotionally handle, they're always left in confused state which in most times they try to question themselves on what to do in other to heal from the emotional trauma that was caused by their heavy loss. That is the reason for this particular topic and it's expected of anyone that's had such experience in gambling to use their experience and offer lasting solutions to such incidents.
The first time I lost huge money in gambling, I became deeply depressed because the money I lost was supposed to be used for something more meaningful. It was a very close friend of mine who had experienced such incident in gambling before that asked to assume that I was robbed of the money but was able to run away from the robbers without being hurt, I listened to his advice and got a bit relieved. It took me over two weeks to get over it but have never for once gambled more than my budget again
163  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: May 06, 2024, 03:11:11 PM
I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor. By poor, I mean those who do not have enough to meet all their needs. I don't know the reason for this. Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision? I really want to know the reason for this pattern I have observed.
The reason is very simple, the rich have enough money in their disposal, and this automatically opens them up to alot of opportunities, like bonuses and others, and when it come to actual gambling, the rich win more because they have more to spend, imagine having a $100 as a poor person, and another having $5000, and you both decide to spend the money on playing Slot game, who do you think will play for longer with those amount, is you both were to be betting the same amount of money on each spin?, of course the rich dude with $5000 at his disposal will play for longer, and one thing about slot game, the longer you play, the better your chances at winning really big amount of money.

But then, I will tell you something I believe many do not know about gambling yet, winning in gambling is not really about how much you made gambling, but rather, it's more of your overall profit and loss, to really consider yourselve a winner, your overall wins have to be more than your overall loses, this has nothing to do with who is rich or who is poor, for a poor more with $100 to his name can end up with more overall amount in win compared to their loses, while the rich man will have more overall loses compared to their overall win amount.
Your opinion about the reason why the rich win more in gambling is absolutely correct and when you relate it to our immediate society, you'll see that everything you said are nothing but the truth. But I want to point out to another reason why I feel the rich win more in gambling than the poor and that reason is the greedy factor. Poor people are always greedy in their gambling decisions and that's why they would want to use $10 to try win over $5000 at a spot.
Rich people aren't as greedy as the poor people because when they're gambling, they just use much amount of money to gamble while expecting to  get little profit from their stake. So in a nutshell, poor people are more greedy than the rich people in their gambling engagements

Juventus can't win anymore.
14 points in the latest 14 games, and only 3 wins.

The qualification for the next Chamspion league is now closer but not yet achieved.

A big part will be done next week with the game between Atalanta and Roma, 2 contenders of Juventus.

Juventus have shown how weak they are from there last three matches they could not even try there possible best to win any match, however they are lucky to have gone this far before all this there lapses if not they wouldn't have been able to get to this point they are on the league table though considering there current points they still have a high chance of qualifying to the champions League next season because before this time they have managed to secure a good point and now they are at the third position of the league table so they still have a good chance of qualifying if they put more efforts on those there remaining matches.
Juventus has been having a hard time lately. The best teams in the world shouldnt even be able to handle these recent games. Im not a coach, but I can tell they need to do better. They are lucky to be in third place right now because they are still in the running for the Champions League. When Roma and Atalanta are hungry, one mistake means the game is over. Real Madrid and Juventus both have great players with a lot of promise. Now is the time to pay attention and play each game like its the final. Lets see the fire and drive that makes Juventus the great team we all know and admire.

For a team to be able to win the Italian Serie A title, the team must be consistent from the start of the season till the end of the season and considering the performances of all the Italian teams in the current Serie A campaign, we can authoritatively say that it is Inter Milan that's been consistent all season which is why they're the crowned champions of Italy.
Juventus started the season on a very good note and was considered by many as a serious contender for the Italian Serie A title this season but surprisingly, they starting getting awful results that's now made them a laughing stock. It was in the beginning of the second half of the season that the Old Ladies of Turin started to underperform. The manager Massimiliano Allegri have to seriously access the team by the end of the season and see what he can do to help them improve
165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: May 05, 2024, 11:23:42 PM

Probability shows Real Madrid as the favorite, that could be true because they are the home team. No one will underestimate Bayern Munich, but I admit that Real Madrid's chances of getting to the final are higher than Bayern Munich this season. Real Madrid's consistent performance is something that can make them appear enthusiastic in the second leg, but it is not a guarantee to say that Madrid can win.
Real Madrid is always the favorite to reach the Champions League final. The performance throughout this season and the morale aspect imply that Madrid is a better team than Bayern. Playing at home is also a big advantage for Real Madrid, and they have already secured the league title that can boost their morale to achieve more without splitting focus.

Real Madrid is also not having serious problem with injuries, while Bayern need to asses the readiness of their players who were absence in the first leg. History tells that both teams have ability to beat each others while Real Madrid have a better record in the more recent history. All this variable of probability can only serve a prediction, while anything can happen on the pitch.
When it became obvious that Real Madrid is going to play against Bayern Munich in the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League competition, many people including bookmakers were backing the Spanish giants to eliminate their German counterparts. In the first leg of the tie that was played at Allianz Arena last week, Real Madrid were able to get a draw but will now play host to the former German Bundesliga champions on Wednesday night for the last game of the tie.

Lukaku will never replace the position of Osimhen. Lukaku is talented player, he also can make many goals during the season. However, Lukaku is s typical of pure striker, he can't play well if Napoli has low quality of midfielders. Conte or another coach need to improve the wingers and midfielders of Napoli if they really want to sign Lukaku.

While Lukaku may be a good player to sign in place of Osimhen, Lukaku may really not be seen as a goal hunter like Osimhen is. Aside from being a finisher, Osimhen goes out to scout for goals and create more opportunity for the club unlike Lukaku would do. Getting a strong support base from the other side of the players like the midfield will assist Lukaku in his position to make more goals for the Napoli club. I hope the manager will be more strategic to understand this gap and work ahead of filling in the gaps.
Romelu Lukaku is one player that has the ability to effect the to play in big club in Europe but I think we're done with seeing the best of Lukaku. I doubt if we're going to see a Romelu Lukaku who's going to do better than he did in the past seasons as a professional footballer. It's possible for Napoli to try sign him to their club but it'll be beyond normal expectation for anyone to think that Lukaku will be as prolific as Victor Osimhen have been in the past two seasons for the club.
Lukaku have shown that he understands Italian football and his to play it the league so I think his experience is big enough to help him succeed at Napoli but we are less likely to see a Romelu Lukaku that will perform like he did in his prime when he joins Napoli

Milan 3 - 3 Genoa

although Milan is classified in the European Champions League, in my opinion I think that Milan had to work harder to win the games, in the last 5 games Milan had only 1 victory, something that is not good for a team that is in the second position, they could take advantage of the fact that they are classified for the European champions league and would start by placing the players who could not play throughout the season, I think that Milan could have positive results in the last games even if they were playing against problematic teams or top teams .
Quote
For a big Italian club like AS Milan, I was expecting a better result than the 3:3 scoreline they recorded in their game against Genoa today at the famous San Siro stadium. Playing at home to an average team like Genoa, I was expecting AC Milan to easily grab three points from that particular game. I overheard few of the guys in my locality this evening murmuring about the result of that particular game because to them, they added the game to their betting slip with the option of winning the game but unfortunately for them, they lost

Milan 3 - 3 Genoa

Roma 1 - 1 juventus

This was a very important game for Juventus and in my opinion they needed to come out of this game with victory. Unfortunately, Roma didn't manage to win, but they managed to buy what they wanted and put all the accounts in the club. last season roma failed to qualify for the european champions league, and i see that this season roma will once again fail to qualify for the european champions league, about juventus my only question is whether we will see the same coach again in next season, if they have the same coach, then it can be expected that Juventus will not be champions next season
Also today in the Italian Serie A, Roma had the chance of winning their game today against Juventus so they can increase their chances of finishing the season in the top four but couldn't make good use of the opportunity. Juventus I think is surely going to finish the season in the top four

Tottenham comeback attempts is always after they have conceded many goals which makes it possible to redeem. When they played Arsenal, it was the same thing that played out. Even against Chelsea the same scenario. Assuming their second half come back is usually maintained in the first half, they would have gotten a result different from the disgraceful defeats they have been receiving.
If Tottenham attempt to do a comeback against Manchester City,it will it work because it has failed even against teams that are weaker than Manchester City. If Tottenham coach intends to get a good result against Manchester City  , he needs to start Richarlison and James Madison from the beginning because with Richarlison. Son and Madison starting, Tottenham Hotspur will have a better chance to win against Manchester City. Tottenham have lost their last four games, they need a win to be sure of qualification for a European qualification.
The only way Tottenham Hotspur can be able to beat Manchester City if you ask me is to make sure the first score one or two goals and then try defend their goals while hoping to break the City defense using counter. If Tottenham allow Manchester City to first score in the game, it'll be almost impossible for them to come back against the reigning champions. Manchester City's manager Pep Guardiola is one man that so much loves to win as many trophies as possible while breaking records. He equalled Sir Alex Ferguson's record of winning the English Premier League in three consecutive times last season but wants to set a new record by winning it the fourth consecutive time. The only team that can stop them at the moment is Tottenham Hotspur if you ask me but will Ange Postecoglou's men be decisive enough in that game to make City drop points

To be honest am really impressed with the way Girona tried to be able to maintain themselves to this level, at the beginning of the season many were doubting them on making it to the Champions League, some were saying they may lose form along the way but unfortunately they are able to maintain their form. Barcelona performance this season don't impressed me at all, even when i noticed their defeat i wasn't surprised because already their performance as declined even with their past matches the lost to PSG and real Madrid, won against valencia but still i wasn't convinced for them to beat Girona because of the valencia strength in the table.
A big surprise from Girona in their yesterday match against Barcelona which they put much effort and level the grand of Barcelona wor so muc goals. Because those that where making a wrong predicting against Girona was very surprised that yesterday with way they perform very well and make sure they dominate the match, many peoples take Girona granted with how the perform very poorly in their previous matches which everyone was having hoped for Barcelona that they can find the match so easy to win.

But Girona has proved to them they're also no more a weak team they now improve back with strong performance, if not be say lack of inconsistent is the main problem of Girona they supposed be the one holding the top standing by now, But nevertheless with how they're trying make their performance so strong they might catch up real Madrid from top standing.
In as much as I expected Barcelona to get a result against Girona yesterday in the Spanish La Liga, I wasn't too surprised that Girona instead were able to get all three points against Barcelona with a 4:2 win. The last season winners of the Spanish La Liga haven't been as impressive as they were last season in the league so beating them I don't think should be a big news considering how impressive Girona have been since the start of the current season.
Girona deserves to play in the UEFA Champions League after a very impressive season and I'm very happy that their place in the UEFA Champions League competition for next season have been confirmed after that win against Barcelona yesterday.

Real Madrid easily defeated Cadiz.
Luka Modric is a player who stands out in situations that create good opportunities for his teammates in this match. This is the 21st time midfielder Luka Modric has officially appeared for Real Madrid in La Liga this season, formally breaking a record for over half a century. Midfielder Luka Modric has become Real Madrid's oldest player to play in La Liga. Previously, it was thought that Modric would leave Real Madrid when this season ended. However, I believe that Real Madrid's change of stance is still possible because they realize the value that Modric brings when coming off the bench.
Modric's current situation is still 50/50 because it is difficult to see what happens next season because after all, by looking at the age he has at this time he is already quite old and almost over in his professional career, but indeed seeing Modric's intensity in the midfield and as a good ball distributor for strikers, he is still very worthy to be in Madrid.

But indeed whatever happens I think all decisions are ultimately in the hands of Perez because after all the words he said are absolute things that are difficult to refute and even if he leaves next season it's actually still pretty good because he leaves with achievements that not everyone can get because currently Modric is one of the players who managed to get 25 trophies will go to 26 if he wins the Champions League this season throughout his career in Madrid and of course it is difficult to follow everyone who makes him special, In addition, if he does leave, it will also provide a good transition so that Ancelotti makes a new transition with the young people they have at the moment.

Luka Modric since he was signed to Real Madrid in the summer of 2012 have been a great addition to the Real Madrid team as he's helped the club achieve so many things including helping Real Madrid win the UEFA Champions League title in five different occasions. Currently, he's still a a very important member of the Real Madrid team but a lot of speculations have been going on lately regarding his future with the club. Some are of the opinion that Modric's current age doesn't five him the needed strength to continue playing for a club like Real Madrid while others are of the opinion that he's likely to remain at Real Madrid beyond the end of the current season.
As a Real Madrid fan, I know how emotional it'll be to let a super player like Luka Modric leave the club and I feel the club president Fiorentino Perez also feels the same but because of the age of the Croatian, I think Luka Modric will be allowed to leave in the summer so that the younger talents in the squad can get more playing time to showcase their potentials as well improve their football talents.

Bayer Leverkusen put one foot in the Europa League final as Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich scored in 2-0 semi-final first-leg win over Roma at the Stadio Olimpico. Bayer Leverkusen side got an advantage in the first leg of the round at away. The second leg will be held at BayArena next Thursday. Leverkusen's unbeaten run for 2023-24 stands at 47 games across all competitions (39 wins, eight draws).
Because Liverpool failure certainly makes Bayer Leverkusen doesn't seem to have strong competitors in the race for the Europa League trophy this time, because even though the teams in the semifinals are also quite good. But still, the reality is that Bayer Leverkusen at this moment is really at a different level, so it is difficult to stop Bayer Leverkusen's streak of good results at this moment. After all, even though AS Roma has also succeeded in improving its performance and quality since the appointment of De Rossi as AS Roma head coach, but the reality is that AS Roma still failed in the first leg even though AS Roma played at home. With factors like that, I personally am really confident and will not doubt the good chance that Bayer Leverkusen has this season to win lots of trophies.
I completely understand the excitement surrounding Leverkusen at the moment. And that run of not losing in ANYTHING is no joke. They're on a whole new level this season. Another team is having a hard time reaching the crazy high bar they set. There are teams like Roma that are getting back on track, but they still aren't playing as hard as Leverkusen. It's really possible for Leverkusen to win the Europa League because of how well they work together and how often they win. They've worked hard all season, so it feels right
With Bayer Leverkusen's win today at Eintracht Frankfurt, they've now gone 48 games in all competition without conceding a defeat a feat that's helped them equal Benfica's record as the European club with the longest unbeaten streak in all competitions. Xabi Alonso's men without doubt is currently one of the best teams in Europe at the moment but the interesting thing about this their impressive run is that Bayer Leverkusen isn't even planning on slowing down with their impressive performances.
Last week in their UEFA Europa League semi final game against AS Roma, the the German champions were able to grab an away victory without even conceding a goal and will now have Italian club in the second leg of that tie this week Thursday. Bayer Leverkusen only needs to avoid any defeat with more than a goal margin in that game to reach the final of the competition. I think it's very safe to say that Bayer Leverkusen are going to play in the final of the UEFA Europa League competition

Galatasaray will play Sivasspor today. It will be one of the most important games for us on the road to the championship. Okan Buruk warned the players before this match. Sivasspor have been getting good results in recent weeks. But I think they play a one-way game. I accept that they defend very well. But no team can win a match only by defending well. They defend well and look for goals with Manaj. This tactic will not bring a good result against Galatasaray. I think they have no chance in this match. I expect Galatasaray to get a comfortable win.
In an important match on the way to the championship, who else is left on the path to the championship other than Galatasaray?

I don't think Fenerbahçe can catch up after this match. Galatasaray players and coaches are very focused, they want the cup. Instead of constantly looking for problems like other teams, they are concentrated on getting the best results from the matches. It was the same in the Sivas match today and Sivasspor managed to get three points by making a big difference.
Galatasaray today thrashed their Turkish Super Lig opponents Sivasspor with thumping 6:1 scoreline. With that win, Galatasaray have now extended their points difference ahead of second place Fenerbahce to seven points. Fenerbahce still have the chance of reducing their points difference behind the league leaders to just four points if they can beat Konyaspor tomorrow but I still think that the current league leaders are definitely going to win the Turkish league at the end of the season.
Fenerbahce started the season in a very good note and were even leading the league table at a time so I thought they were going to stop the reigning champions for defending the Turkish Super Lig title this season but with just three league games to play before the end of the season, Galatasaray will win the league title of they can win two out of the three games.

Is Jackson finally starting to be useful for Chelsea?  Tongue  After scoring against Tottenham he scored 2 goals against West Ham today as well. This is really important for him to regain his self-confidence of course but let's see if he will really be more consistent from now on. It wouldn't be sensible to compare him to strikers like Haaland of course but he could lose his place in the starting lineup if he doesn't perform consistently.

5-0 is a really huge win though. Palmer also scored which was nice to see. It seems like it won't be easy for Palmer to finish as top scorer. Because Haaland made a hat-trick yesterday and reached 25 goals. Palmer is 4 goals away. But Palmer is going to be the most valuable player of the team this season for sure.  Smiley
Currently, Nicholas Jackson have a total of 13 English Premier League goals this season but if you want to consider his total number of goals for his club Chelsea this season, he's scored 16 goals while registering 6 assists which makes his total goal contributions to club to 22 this season. For a player that is playing for an English Premier League club for the first time in his career, Jackson's statistics is an impressive one. However, the Senegalese striker would have scored more goals than he's managed this season if he was more clinical in front of goal and that's why a lot of people are of the opinion that he's not the kind of striker Chelsea will need next season if they truly want to improve from their performance of this current campaign.
Today, Jackson scored two goals and registered an assist to help Chelsea climb to the 7th position of the English Premier League table. Hopefully he's going to be more prolific in his last matches of the season so Chelsea fans can become more convinced that he'll be able to help them next season

It is appropriate to say this even though what Bayer Leverkusen fans are currently waiting for is the UEL trophy this season and also the DFB Cup trophy this season, where Bayer Leverkusen still has the potential to get both this season. So Bayer Leverkusen not only get the Bundesliga trophy, but still have the possibility to get two more trophies before they return to developing their extraordinary tactics next season in the more prestigious competition, namely the UCL.

You forget that in addition to the Bundesliga title, the german cup win and the EL trophy, Leverkusen will also have the Super Cup to look forward to and I think that Leverkusen would have a very good chance against any team in the CL with their current squad. I just don't know whether the Super Cup title will count towards the 23/24 season or the 24/25 season?
Bayer Leverkusen this season have already won the German Bundesliga title but they want to win two more important trophies to add to what they have already and the two trophies are the UEFA Europa League trophy as well as the German DFB-Pokal cup. It's been an amazing and fulfilling season for Bayer Leverkusen as a club, their manager Xabi Alonso, the players and the club fans but they're not yet satisfied with what they've achieved already which is why they want to make sure that these other two trophies are won. In addition to winning the two other trophies, Bayer Leverkusen also want to finish the season without conceding a defeat. They're currently playing an away league game Eintracht Frankfurt but are comfortably winning the game with an impressive scoreline. It's currently 5:1 in favor of Bayer Leverkusen while the game in in the final five minutes of normal time. If Bayer Leverkusen can avoid defeat in their last two league games, then it simply means that they'll achieve their aim of an unbeaten run in the league

Girona is leading Barcelona by one point in the La Liga table, and they need to win their four remaining matches in the league in order to finish in second place in the La Liga table. Xavi has changed his mind to stay with Barcelona next season, so Barcelona will not need a new head coach. This season, Girona surprises everyone by booking a spot in next season's UEFA Champions League competition.
As a result of Barcelona's defeat at Girona's home ground and Real Madrid's victory at home against Cadiz, Real Madrid can now celebrate their title in La Liga this season. And for now the competition will only be more visible in the fight for second place because Girona is only ahead by one point in the current ranking over Barcelona. With only four matches remaining, of course Girona must try to win all of these matches in order to finish in second place this season and I think that will not be easy enough for Girona.
The Spanish La Liga yesterday was won by Real Madrid and the current Spanish champions have been receiving so many congratulatory messages from different individuals and clubs and as a Real Madrid fan, it is a thing of joy to be experiencing the moment with the club. However, I'm concerned about Barcelona as Real Madrid's biggest rivals and how possible it is to challenge Real Madrid for the Spanish La Liga title next season.

Barcelona's current manager Xavi Hernandez earlier this season publicly said that he's going to leave the club at the end of the current season but few weeks ago, he confirmed that he's not going to leave again but will remain at the club beyond the current season. Now, considering the quality of players at Real Madrid and the fact that Real Madrid are going to add more world class players to the team, will Barcelona be strong enough to challenge Real Madrid in the league next season

I think that Chelsea is truly having a go at trying to win all these last games and hope that the other opponents will make mistakes so they can have a chance at participating in the European competition next season and no one would have thought they to achieve such results in the beginning when they were only losing games.
Due to the landslide victory against West Ham United which they had just finished playing, the battle for positions 4, 5 and 6 in the standings was no less tight than the competition for position 1 in the standings. Chelsea has indeed shown that they are serious about aiming for a place to be able to compete in the European Conference League next season.
Their efforts to make this happen can be said to have a chance of being achieved provided they can wipe out 3 more matches which are relatively easy.

Newcastle and Manchester are eyeing that position too. Newcastle, which currently occupies this position, will continue to defend it. However, Newcastle is threatened with being displaced if Manchester United can win over Crystal Palace which will be played on 7 May.
Before the Chelsea game against West Ham this afternoon, I had predicted that Mauricio Pochentino's men are going to win the game but I never for once thought that the win will be as massive as what we saw this afternoon. 5:0 win for Chelsea to increase their chances of playing in the UEFA Europa League competition next season even when they know that they'll face a serious battle to achieve that. Currently, Chelsea are two points behind 6th placed Newcastle but will only retain their current position if Manchester United fail to get a result against Crystal Palace tomorrow.
Crystal Palace have been impressive in their recent games and because they'll be the host team in their game against Manchester United tomorrow, I believe that they might get a win in that game but if Manchester United cab play in their full strength, they can as well grab all three points from that game.

Real Madrid is of course safe at the top of the Laliga standings and of course Real Madrid will definitely become champions because it is no longer possible for any team to catch Real Madrid's points.

and it seems like now Ancelotti can breathe a sigh of relief because now all he has to do is develop a strategy and formation to be able to win the upcoming match and of course because he has succeeded in becoming champion in Laliga, the mentality of the Madrid players will definitely be calm and of course they will definitely focus on winning the trophy in the UCL.

Now many people are favoring Madrid in the UCL as a strong candidate to become champions. but of course we won't know the results later. However, my gut feeling also says that Real Madrid has great potential to become UCL champions this season after seeing the performance of Bellingham and his friends in Laliga and it looks like at Santiago Bernabeu Madrid will have the potential to win against Bayern. what do you all think about this?
Real Madrid are already the current champions of Spain and they got that massive achievement yesterday that they defeated Cadiz while Barcelona were beaten by Girona in their own game. After Real Madrid defeated Barcelona in the Spanish La Liga two weekends ago, I had the full conviction that Real Madrid are surely going to win the Spanish La Liga this season but I never knew they'll do it with with four games to spare.
Now that Real Madrid have won the Spanish league, they'll fully shift their attention to the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semi final game against German giants Bayern Munich which will be played on Wednesday. As a Real Madrid fan, I'll be rooting for Real Madrid to go all out and win that particular game so that the possiblity of winning the European title this season will remain very much alive.

Supercopa V
La liga V
UCL (soon to be)

No doubt that if ancellotti was one of phenomenal coach that has ever existed along with guardiola and jose mourinho. These coaches have ever won so many trophies on their career. Ancellotti has once again successfully rebuilt real madrid again from the bottom. No doubt that if he will be owning a lot of title with real madrid till the end of his contract.
One of best coach, even xabi alonso and arteta have admitted him as one of greatest football coaches in the world. I put a lot of appreciation for him.

Congratulations for real madrid! Time for the young players to play in the rest of matches.

A big congratulations to the Real Madrid team and also the fans, another fantastic 36 Laliga title, after Girona beat Barcelona with full confidence and defeat with 4 goals, at the end of the season Barcelona went home without any trophy, but to be honest this season Girona is the owner of Barcelona team this season, they beat Barcelona both home and away with 8 goals, Barcelona have become a team that every team can beat this season, I know that many Barcelona fans will be angry with the coach yesterday but to be honest that is not xavi fault, Xavi is doing his best, the only thing that is affecting Barcelona is that they don’t have money to buy new players.

Let's forget about Barcelona because what has happened has happened, so congratulations to Real Madrid and Ancelotti for his perfect job for the team, ancelotti has become one of the greatest managers of Real Madrid and very soon he will win the Champions League title again after playing against Bayern Munich and win them on coming Wednesday, what a season for Real Madrid player’s and also a good season for Bellingham and Arda Guler, first season at the club and also win the title.
As a Real Madrid fan, it's been nothing but the feeling of unspeakable joy since it was confirmed yesterday that Real Madrid for the 36th time have conquered the whole of Spain to win the Spanish championship. Real Madrid players have been immense with their performances this season and I couldn't be happier with how they've performed this season in all the competitions.
The club manager Carlo Ancelotti in my own opinion is just the best among the whole managers that are currently managing any team in the world and to think that he manages this Real Madrid team with total dedication says much about his love for the club. Real Madrid's season isn't over yet despite winning the Spanish La Liga title yesterday because they've got a second leg game in the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League competition to play against Bayern Munich on Wednesday and winning that game as well going on to win the European title will definitely be a great achievement for the club, manager, players and fans in general

Right now the table is quite fixed and we can see who is taking the title of first four, while man United, Chelsea and Newcastle are left to struggle for 6 position to qualify for the conference Cup, right now Newcastle is ahead with 3 points but both other teams have an outstanding match to play, and I think man United might not make this journey cause they have a strong match againt arsenal next week and if they lose and Newcastle and Chelsea wins they have well passed them and I think right now that's all man United can hope to qualify for.
The standings are still not stable enough now because they could still experience some changes if teams like Chelsea, Newcastle and Manchester United can win again in the next match. Because the top five positions in the standings could still be contested by several more teams if Tottenham lose again at home to Liverpool today. Tottenham is only four points ahead of Newcastle and six points ahead of Manchester United at the moment so Tottenham's top five position is still not completely safe if Tottenham fails to get full points in the next two matches.
The current difference between Chelsea who currently Chelsea who lie in the 8th position of the English Premier League and 6th placed Newcastle is just five points while 7th placed Manchester United are currently two points behind the Newcastle. Manchester United and Chelsea have played one game less than the 6th placed team in the league and should they win in their respective league games today, Manchester United will go past Newcastle with a point while Chelsea will reduce their points difference behind Newcastle to just two points.
The race for who finishes in the 6th placed of the English Premier League table this season I think is a very tight with any of the above three teams I mentioned having the possibility of finishing the season in that particular position

the Bayern Munich coach, Tuchel is on Manchester United's shortlist to become the next Manchest coach, but the question is not yet definitive as it is not yet clear whether the coach currently wants
to leave?? as he announced in February or whether now seeing the results in the Champions League has changed his mind and wants to stay??...

Xabi Alonso end Xavi did the same thing.


I'm yet to read any report that suggests that Manchester United are trying to hire current Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel to replace Erik ten Hag should they sack the Dutch manager at the end of the season. Thomas Tuchel helped Chelsea win the UEFA Champions League title in his first season with the club but couldn't continue his good form in the second season which was why he was sacked by the club management and since Bayern Munich hired him to manage their first team, he's not been convincing with his tactical approaches. This season, Bayern Munich lost the German Bundesliga title to Bayer Leverkusen which happened to be the first time since 12 years that they've failed to win the league title. So with all of Thomas Tuchel's recent records as a manager, I don't think Manchester United management would want to sign him to the club
