Miracles are certainly possible, but I can't imagine what kind of miracle should happen so that Newcastle with the current squad and coach and the penultimate place in the table could claim the championship this year Of course not, it's just that Newcastle need to stabilize the game this season and so far move at least to the middle of the table, having carried out a high-quality winter transfer campaign and recruit players above the average level. The competition in the Premier League is great and rivals in the fight for high places will also not stand still in the fight for players and Newcastle will have to offer more money than already formed competitors.

The loss of Morata and Dybala is a significant factor that can play against Juventus. On the other hand, if Juventus wants to claim something serious and serious improvement in the standings, then it is necessary to do without these players, especially since important victories were obtained without these players in the derby with Torino and in the match with Chelsea. Another question is that Roma is not by chance higher in the standings and is unlikely to want to let Juventus closer, so knowing Mourinho's style, it is quite possible to expect that Roma will agree to a draw on the opponent's field and I think this result is the most likely.

Of course, it may be silly to say after half a season, but maybe Perez still could not fully adapt to the design of the Red Bull car. There is an opinion that the design of the Red Bull car is quite specific to the conditions of Formula 1 and if Verstappen has already spent the sixth season in the team and has already adapted remarkably to the car and all changes for him are gradual, then Perez spends only the first season and did not come from the Red Bull system. Bottas is a good enough driver, which is sometimes shown by his wins and more frequent poles, but still, for all his qualities, he cannot claim the position of the first number of the team, which Hamilton is always, especially if we recall the conditions of his arrival at Mercedes. By the way, in Alfa Romeo, Bottas may well be number one given his experience, but a lot depends on the figure of his partner.

It all depends on the dynamics of the situation and I think that if Real Madrid cannot get out of the group, then the chair under Ancelotti will in any case be very shaky despite all his good relations. Everyone has known the difficult character of Perez for a long time and I don't think anyone can count on the inviolability of their positions in the club and the constant favor from the club's management. It is enough to recall the recent scandal with the unflattering scandalous assessments that surfaced against Vicente del Bosque, Ronaldo, Raul, Casillas. However, Ancelotti was just taken into account his ability to find good relations with the team's players, because everything was not so smooth with Zidane, but we must understand that in a team like Real Madrid, results and titles are the main measure of success.

This may include the costs of the cup system, when everything depends on one match and the team cannot psychologically tune in and give its maximum in one game, it may also speak about the strength of the head coach, who cannot achieve this from the team, because in the current conditions the head coach must be a good psychologist and motivator. There are also questions about the scoring system in the rating system itself, with which teams the games were held, but for this purpose competitions are held between teams, where these teams identify the strongest in a face-to-face fight. In theory, the League of Nations itself should not have put pressure on the Belgian national team due to its lower status than the World and European Championships, but unfortunately Belgium failed to win the title here.

I think that the laws of financial fair play will not allow Newcastle to immediately create a top-level team with a roster consisting exclusively of top players. It is also known that the new management has big questions about the current club infrastructure and the same big plans for its modernization. In any case, this is a process of more than one year and the club will also need to gain the prestige and trust of top players so that they prefer to continue their career in Newcastle, and not in other more famous clubs. By the way, it is the previous successes and the rich club history with a certain unique aura that is the most important reason why Mbappe aspired to Real Madrid.

As they say, money attracts money. Thanks to several vain club owners who do not spare money for the object of their vanity, some of the money and attention of advertisers falls to other clubs And the case of Newcastle shows that it also attracts the attention of new super-rich people who want to compete in this championship. And if in other championships there are such super clubs for one or a maximum of two for the entire league, then the English Premier League is a completely different matter. By the way, if the pandemic story has hit the leading European leagues very hard financially, then in England it has manifested itself much less, which allows the English clubs to take an even better approach to strengthening their squads.

The world economy is a fairly organized process under the control of the state bodies of the leading states, therefore, it is rather naive and far-sighted to hope that these states will withdraw themselves and happily switch to decentralized cryptocurrencies. At best, we expect the parallel existence of fiat currencies in digital format and partly based on blockchain, as well as decentralized cryptocurrencies, mostly as a speculative asset, a means of accumulation. I still don't want to think about the bad scenario of a total ban, because there is a great hope that the governments of the states will have the prudence to leave their citizens the opportunity to play with their own financial independence

According to The Telegraph, Newcastle can spend 223 million euros in winter without violating the rules of financial fair play, so there may be enough funds for Mbappe, Haaland or Kane. Another question is, apart from one or two super-players, the club now has to think more about building a competitive team as a whole and you can't raise the level of the team on one player now. If only purely for marketing and attracting attention to the project. By the way, Antonio Conte seems to have refused the offer to lead Newcastle and I seem to understand his motives, because Conte dreams of titles, and here you need to start from the bottom of the standings and build a team and there is a chance to build a team for another coach, like Tuchel and Chelsea.

The strength of Atletico Madrid is in the team game and the club has the only superstar who constantly makes a decent result and you know the name of this person perfectly well This is Diego Simeone I would not be surprised at all if Atletico Madrid still gets to the Champions League semi-finals, although given the current transfer affairs and budgets, this time everything looks much more complicated and the English clubs have a considerable advantage. By the way, English clubs should hurry up in winning titles while Newcastle, which is at the bottom, is just beginning to gain its future power and strength after the purchase of the club by the Saudi owners

I wouldn't call this tournament boring, but the final four of the League of Nations in general turned out to be exciting and gave a lot of bright emotions to the spectators and fans of the tournament. Another question is that due to the shifted deadlines due to the pandemic of the timing of the European Championship, the main focus was still directed specifically at Euro2020. It's hard for me to blame UEFA for wanting to earn more money instead of holding boring friendly matches, especially since this earned money goes to national federations, unlike selfish projects like the Super League. Benzema really deserves only praise in his address, because winning the League of Nations is largely his merit.

Juventus is on the way to recovery and restoration of its former positions at the head of the standings, another question is that this is a gradual process and there may be some difficulties on the way, especially since the current Roma is higher in the table and also wants to rise higher in the leadership group. Therefore, I will not be surprised by a draw with a minimum score of 1-1. Inter seems to have scored a good move and it seems like it should not at least lose to Lazio, especially since the current Lazio does not look like a favorite in this match despite the status of the host of the meeting and the Romans also miss a lot in recent matches, so either Inter wins or a productive draw.

Of course, the players and the coach of a club like Manchester United should not think about a draw in such a match and think only about winning, but on the other hand, we do not determine the composition of the club and do not go out on the football field, so we have the right to some objectivity and try to correlate physical reality with dreams and wishes By the way, in previous seasons there was no such obvious criticism of Solskjaer about tactics and vice versa, even at times, the club's tactics were given credit. And here, after a number of recent acquisitions, they are already beginning to demand significant results in tactics. Still, I think we need to wait some time for changes. At least the club's management is still waiting according to

In any case, Barcelona would need a reboot, but it's one thing when it is done in an organized manner and under full control, and quite another thing when everything is done in a hurry and not the most optimal decisions are made. Laporta came to the club as an anti-crisis manager, but still probably did not expect that the situation was so bad. Personally, I was surprised by his words that he hoped to the last that Messi would agree to stay at the club and play at the club for free, despite all that the club has done for Messi's career. And it turned out that Messi left in a situation when no one from the outside expected this, unlike last season, when leaving seemed to be a done deal.

If Haaland had played, it would have been possible to speak with more confidence about the victory of Borussia, and so there will be a game of equal rivals. I will also give a small advantage to Borussia Dortmund, because the game will be in Dortmund. By the way, according to the information Borussia Dortmund tried to extend the contract with Haaland, raising his salary twice, but the player refused to extend the contract, which indicates the subsequent transfer of the player to a more status club. And it seems that there are more transition options than Mbappe with his Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid, so a kind of auction is planned with the last word of the player's representatives.

No one will deny that Allegri is beginning to achieve some success in instilling in Juventus the game that gave results in the previous period of the specialist's work at the club. Another question is that this game was not particularly spectacular, which eventually led to the parting of the club with Massimiliano and an attempt to rebuild the game first with Sarri, and then with Pirlo. This did not bring the expected result and even led to the loss of the title last season, and therefore Juventus returned to cooperation with Allegri. Mourinho, too, from the time of Porto, no longer differs much in the spectacular style of play, basing the result on, so we can not wait for an exciting spectacle from these two coaches, because now they have other main goals.

Benzema's goal came at the right time and did not allow the Spanish national team to feel their superiority and rebuild the team game according to the result of the match for this period. The Spanish national team had better control of the ball before, but the attacks of the French national team were more dangerous and when France failed to score once again hitting the crossbar with a rebound in front of the goal line, I said that such scattering moments could end badly and it really happened. However, Benzema's quick return goal quickly leveled the situation. As for Mbappe's goal, it turns out that it would be better if the Spanish player did not touch the ball. All these newfangled interpretations of the rules are confusing everything more and more, because Mbappe was still offside and the pass was clearly going to him. In any case, I would like to congratulate the French national team on a great game and winning the title!

Rest and rotation are different and also strongly depends on the player and his style of play. I am not sure that the best use of Ronaldo in a Manchester United team game is to be a substitute in the middle or even at the end of the game. Therefore, I want to agree with the opinion of such a renowned specialist as Alex Ferguson, who has long proved to everyone with his work that Ronaldo needs to be released in the starting lineup. Whatever kind of robot Ronaldo was or was not, but still he was obviously not signed in order for him to rush around the field like a madman and work out, cleaning up all the mistakes in defense and then completing all the attacks with goals. Ronaldo is an excellent finisher of the club's attacking actions, able to decide the outcomes of matches and that's what he does best, and not constant substitutions at the end of the match.

I am not sure that in this particular case a miraculous improvement is possible by the order of the game and therefore the improvement, if it comes, will be quite gradual with its ups and downs. Of course, in order to achieve a winning result, players must give their all to the fullest, leaving all their strength on the football field. Another question is that all this should be supported by thought, coaching thought in matters of tactics and the composition of the team for the game, and the thought of the players on the field. Just in a match with such an opponent as Leicester, we can make some idea of the strength of the club and Solskjaer's ability to cope with challenges. Another question is that the championship has not yet passed its fifth part and not to say that any club demonstrates an exorbitant level that is not available to rivals.

History is of course a great thing, but it can help, and it is not necessary at all, only in individual matches, but in a series of matches, a specific role will be played by the state, composition and strength at this point in time. It's just that you can't go far on club history, and if English clubs have better lineups and, accordingly, a team game, then representation in the final stages will be higher in theory. Another question, I myself would not like the total dominance of one European league over others and, accordingly, the representation of other clubs, but I repeat once again that you should not rely only on the club history and Real Madrid and Barcelona achieved their victories thanks to their players and wonderful squads that were clearly above average.
