We just enjoy every argument that says Liverpool will be easily defeated by Real Madrid in the round of 16 match because Liverpool's performance has greatly decreased in the Domestic League. We are also not so proud of the past history because what we are waiting for is a new history with the new generation. The fact is that's what people have assumed and analyzed about Liverpool this season, and maybe you just have to admit it. You can't expect Liverpool to win while they are so bad in the Premier League. History says that Liverpool have always had trouble beating Real Madrid, and you probably won't see Liverpool being able to have the same history as the 2008/2009 season where Liverpool won 5-0 on aggregate in the round of 16. Maybe Liverpool will answer all arguments with results that can surprise all observers. I hope there are no surprises, Real Madrid should be able to handle Liverpool well and continue to maintain great head-to-head record. |

Congrats on winning your bet, mate, I had bad luck in the Lorient Vs Rennes match, instead of choosing GG, I'm more interested in choosing win for Rennes. I didn't do what I said in the score prediction, maybe this will be a lesson for me to remain consistent only in the initial choice so that I will avoid regrets. About the match, I didn't expect Lorient to win, even though Rennes dominated more, even Lorient's shots on goal were 4, meaning that they really took advantage of the opportunities they had. Vito Mannone made 5 brilliant saves on that match, so that his team was really able to maintain the victory until the end of the match. Vito Mannone saved 5 of the 6 attempts Rennes scored, that was incredible and that was the performance to be expected. Then in the other match, Lens failed to win another important match today and almost lost if substitute Adrien Thomasson did not score before the end of the match. Lens should have won the match if they wanted to be top of the table, but they had to fail because of maybe overconfidence. It is clear that PSG are favorite now if they win the match against Reims tomorrow. PSG are the favourites, but Lens' efforts in the title race this season have looked inconsistent. |

Barcelona is increasingly comfortable on first standing La Liga position behind 6 points left from Real Madrid after the crucial winning over Girona, however, Barcelona's victory came at a cost after Ousmane Dembele had to be withdrawn in the 26th minute due to a serious injury. Right now Barcelona waiting for match result between Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad, if another failure for Madrid with three points achievement will make Barcelona keep comfortable on the top standing position. Girona had several good chances, but the finishing was bad enough that they failed to score and had to lose 3 points at home. I'm not interested in the situation of Dembele who he said was injured and was substituted in the first half. Obviously Barcelona's 3 points today makes me think that Real Madrid should really win their match against Real Sociedad tomorrow. It's not good to let Barcelona be 6 points ahead and comfortable at the top of the table, it will only get worse for Real Madrid. But I'm not worried, Real Madrid have home match this week and it should be our 6th win at home this season for La Liga. 3 points tomorrow is mandatory and I don't expect Real Madrid to make mistake and drop points in that match. |

If it weren't for bitcoin, maybe this charity work that my community (LEC) does would not have happened, regardless of the role bitcoin has indirectly helped them. How is it possible, is all the budget collected mostly from bitcoin? I'm just curious, but I could almost say no because it's likely just you donating your bitcoin earnings to other temporary pools in different way. Of course there is role for bitcoin as you have to sell your bitcoin for fiat and donate it but I don't want to argue because basically I value your charity not your bitcoin. But whatever it is, I really appreciate the advice and input from all of you, because this will encourage me to do other charitable activities. I don't want to advise you on anything, but disagreements are possible. I think you are good at charity work, but try to avoid assuming that you are the only one making sacrifice while great honors also go out to your community. If I may say so, your community plays much bigger role than the fiat you contribute, but you don't have to say it. In addition, consider being more anonymous in your other activities by not mentioning your hometown and places of activity. |

I think a thin score will be the final result in this fight, even though a draw is still a big chance. Erling Haaland got quite tight guard from the arsenal defense line, I saw him several times fail to develop his game because of the dense defense that was carried out by Arsenal. That's because Arsenal know who Haaland is, so it's mandatory for the defense to guard him closely. Several times Haaland was able to get away from the defenders' siege, but fortunately Matt Turner managed to cut his movement quickly by going out of the goal. Haaland is very likely to score if not heavily marked, but he struggled in this game because Arsenal know what they have to do. Edit : 1-0 for manchester city advantage  Well now Arsenal really know what they are doing since going 1-0 down to Manchester City. Odegaard, Martinelli and Zinchenko played, but it seems increasingly difficult to expect Manchester City to make mistakes. |

Pogba has recovered he may play some minutes in the following game against Monza.
If it will happen it will be his 1st game since the Pogback.
I still doubt Pogba's comeback in the match against Monza tomorrow, but he will probably play soon when his condition has completely recovered. However, I think Pogba will have to spend few games getting back to his game due to his long injury. It's hard to expect him to play well since his first return, he'll need few matches to hone his skills again even if he's very experienced. Pogba's return has brought fresh air for Juventus, which so far is ranked 11th in the standings. Of course the strength of Juventus will be even better with the return of Pogba, but I have doubts about the defense. |

By the way, not only Zinchenko, I also hope Martin Ødegaard, Ben White, or William Saliba to play as well. If Arsenal cannot get enough chances to make goals, Arteta needs to consider releasing other main players to play in the second half. Man City looks very serious to play, Arteta needs to be more careful and doesn't underestimate them. William Saliba and Albert Sambi Lokonga were played in the second half but I think they needed more substitutions during the second half where Martinelli and Odegaard deserved to be paly. Manchester City are very serious in this match by playing all their best players, but they also haven't been able to score goals until now. Some good chances created in the first and second half but I think they will succeed in the second half. The score is still 0-0, the match is getting more interesting. |

Therefore, I took the initiative to sell some of my bitcoins to help the two villages. Once again you have proven yourself to be a benefactor for anyone who needs help. Not only do I credit you in this effort, but your fellow community members deserve credit for their great efforts for humanity. It doesn't matter how much you sell your bitcoin for charitable purposes, as long as the goal is to help, I hope God will reward you in some other way. The title may be bit misleading, I don't think bitcoin plays direct and significant role in this charity but since you have your income paid out via bitcoin and some of it you donate to charity. This is just about you and how you spend your income for useful things like charity, but for whatever I really appreciate your efforts. Continue this great effort, best for you bro.  |

Manchester United's relationship with Ronaldo has ended. So I'd say it's better not to discuss it.
Both Barcelona and Manchester United are playing well. Both Barcelona and Manchester United won yesterday's match. And both the teams were able to dominate and win. So it becomes more difficult for me to predict which team will win.
Lewandowski and Dembele have been performing consistently well. And Barcelona's main strength is their midfield. Barcelona's performances are now very stable due to the consistently good performances of the midfielders. But their defense is still weak. I would say, if against Manchester United, Barcelona's defenders can play well, then Barcelona has a chance to win. Barcelona's defense has actually been very strong so far, but that's in La Liga. Meanwhile Barcelona look very different in Europe so I don't expect a win from them over two legs against Manchester United. Jules Koundé, Ronald Araújo, Andreas Christensen and Alejandro Balde are in good form so far. They look strong at guarding Barcelona's defense, but I think Manchester United has way of making Barcelona's defense work hard. The two teams have different playing styles, and I think Barcelona will still try to dominate the match in their trademark style and that will allow them to manage the tempo of the game. Barcelona successfully won the Super Cup from Real Madrid, while they also successfully advanced to the semifinals of the Copa Del Rey, and Barcelona is the leader in La Liga. There is high enthusiasm from this Spanish team, so Manchester United's wariness of Barcelona will certainly increase. |

The two clubs i have so much concerns for this season is Asernal and Barcelona, because both clubs have really improved in their performance this season, and what can stabd against their success is their meeting with stronger teams e.g Barcelona vs Real Madrid in the La liga and Asernal vs Manchester city in the premiere league, this are the two clubs that i see that will stop this trending young club from reaching their goal in this season.
But if Barcelona is able to beat or draw with real madrid and Asersnal record same result against man city that will be a break through for both clubs. You don't have to worry about anything because each team only works for itself without being affected by the others. That's how it should be, but it's always possible to expect Barcelona to slip to second or third this season if Barcelona fail to maintain consistency. On the other hand, Real Madrid still has the potential to lose points if they are unable to maximize their chances of winning matches apart from Barcelona. Not only can you expect Barcelona to lose while Real Madrid can also lose for the rest of the season. So it must be very interesting to see who wins the title in the end because so far La Liga has 17 or 18 match. I'm still very confident about Real Madrid's chances, but I admit Barcelona this season has been impressive. |

Mudryk doesn't need time, even though he would had needed time but with the kind of money that he was signed for, he knows he has to start showing results so Chelsea doesn't regret their purchase and he can start growing his fans love from the fans. We can see how direct he was at his debut and although that game ended goalless for both side, the story would had been different if Mudryk started the game. He was an instant threat to the Liverpool defense and such moves he display does prove of his readiness for the premier league. He also has to start assisting or scoring before the managers and defenders begin to understand his style of play.
As for the coaching situation at the club, we aren't in the days of the previous owners that only go after high profile managers, Todd Boehly is different and I believe he'll give Graham Potter time to prove himself. Immediately we get our players situation sorted out, I believe the owners will back graham Potter as now he'll have all the ingredients needed to serve us a delicious win every weekend. There's a good chance Chelsea are holding out for the rest of the season, and they should really be able to come back in good shape after spending big on transfers. Whatever value Chelsea has spent so far, I think it has to be worth it with the quality that the team, but I think it comes down to Potter leading the team. Potter has the full support of the Chelsea owners, he has to build team and get Chelsea back in form, but if Potter fails then I truly believe he will be sacked. I've seen Mudryk play for Chelsea, I've watched Felix, and these two players really have the quality to get Chelsea back on track. Yes, Chelsea have chance and there is always hope for them as long as this season is not finished. |

Although arsenal now has a 5 point difference and also has 1 game less advantage than manchester city but it is not appropriate for us to believe that the title will be theirs at the end of the season, Of course, no one can guarantee that Arsenal will win this season, even though they are already on points ahead of their competitors. Arsenal are still too far away from the title, but they have better chance than any other team because of the form they have at the moment. right now I think Manchester city just needs to wait for arsenal to slip up and the final weeks usually it will be the real test for arsenal to win the title, so far arsenal has often experienced inconsistency when the english league leaves only a few matches left and that is why I am quite doubtful if arsenal will win the english league even though they are currently leading, in my opinion two matches will be very the determining for who teams will be the next champion, ie away and home matches between Manchester City and Arsenal, anyone who can get perfect points in that the match, Of course , is possible thats the team will be championship. Manchester City has chance to take 6 points from Arsenal if Manchester City wins 2x meetings with Arsenal for the rest of the season. But maybe it's not easy, but even so Manchester City I think is still the team that is more favored even against Arsenal at home and away. There will obviously be tough test for the rest of the season for both Manchester City and Arsenal, but maintaining consistency is going to be tough. |

some of the prospective managers who have the opportunity to coach Everton are Sean Dyche, Wayne Rooney, Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, Duncan Ferguso, and David Moyes. The last name seems very familiar to Premier League teams, and I think Everton are really interested in him. I don't know if Wayne Rooney is capable, but I think he needs a lot of experience before taking charge of a Premier League team. Every manager who will coach Everton next is expected to be a savior for the Liverpool-based team. There is definitely lot of pressure, but considering that Everton have had a lot of flying hours in the Premier League, there is clearly good hope of getting into a better position on the table. I don't expect Rooney to take it, but who knows. |

Napoli progress in Serie A this season has been very impressive, Napoli seemed unstoppable which made Spalletti side manage to top the standings.
The excellent performance shown by Napoli made him the favorite when he met Frankfurt, I am very interested in Napoli performance when destroying Juventus 5-1 in Serie A. Frankfurt also performed well in the Bundesliga, they managed to sit in 3rd place with 30 points. However, when compared to the strengths of the two teams, Napoli is superior to Frankfurt. Napoli are increasingly favored because their attack line is very productive in scoring goals. Victor Osimhen is Napoli's mainstay player this season who can really be a threat to any team's defense. Victor Osimhen has scored 13 goals in Serie A, and it's clear Frankfurt will have to keep a close eye on him. Frankfurt play at home in the first leg, that should be their advantage, while Napoli will play the second leg at home to determine who has the right to qualify. But before that, Napoli have 4 Serie A matches that they need to finish well including against Roma in the coming days. Napoli are certainly the favorites over Frankfurt, but no one knows for sure how the two teams will decide their fate. |

It was true what Maldini said before this season started, if you want to maintain Serie A achievements and be able to excel in Europe this season Milan must invest more courageously to buy star players who are currently doing well, but in reality Milan's owners only provide funds for investment which is not much.
Only to buy mediocre players who are expected to develop under Pioli's tutelage, in fact the players who were bought last summer could not say much.
Everyone was given a chance but no one was able to show a convincing performance. In the end, Pioli only trusted the players who brought the Scudetto last season.
And most of them were injured, including goalkeeper Mike, who has played so far. It can be seen that during the main injury, Milan conceded too many goals and got unsatisfactory results. Milan doesn't have a backup keeper who can patch the main injury.
Being able to survive in the Champions zone, in my opinion, has been very good for this season. The worst consequence for Milan this season will not only be losing the title, but they also have the potential to lose their place in the Champions League next season if they don't defend it better. It is clear for Milan to invest lot of money in players to make the team perform better, but I'm not sure if the owners will do that or if they are just hoping for the players they have. It's difficult to determine this season, but it feels like Napoli will no longer be overtaken. It's still realistic to think Milan will only defend the top 4, that should probably be possible target without signings. |

I'm still not sure for Manchester City in terms of stopping the win for Arsenal, because Arsenal this season have not only been really strong. But he has also been really consistent in playing every game and this can clearly be seen by many people from Arsenal's achievements this season even though there is still time for Manchester City to continue to stick and put pressure on Arsenal until the end of the season. Don't you think beating Arsenal is always possible even if they seem very consistent with their form? However, Arsenal will still be looking forward to matches against Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea and many other strong sides in the remainder of the season. So it's always possible to expect Arsenal to drop points in such a tough game, never mind against Manchester City twice for the rest of the season for the Premier League. Manchester City still have chance to overtake Arsenal at the top of the standings if they are consistent with their wins, but of course that must be difficult considering the Premier League is very competitive. Interestingly, Manchester City and Arsenal will be played in the FA Cup in the coming days, and it will be good to see who is the best in terms of strategy. |

The sack has been long coming; and it is very disappointing from the everton owners to be sacking him when he has joyfully crashed the team into the relegation waters. With 19 games to go; can Everton get a coach to help them achieve atleast 8-10 wins out of the remaining 18 games? because to me; thats the perfect way out relegation this season for everton I think it is really appropriate to fire Lampard after the coach was unable to improve the performance of the team which has played 20 matches so far. Lampard was only able to win 3 matches, lose 11 and draw 6 in 20 matches. Obviously because Everton has to be in the relegation zone this season by only collecting 15 points. I know that has disappointed the owners who want their teams to compete well all season, but it's the competition that is looking increasingly difficult for Lampard. It's still possible for Everton to improve for the rest of the season, and I think they'll bounce back in the next 18 match. |

At first I thought Man United would come back to win because they scored first. Actually they played pretty well, Arsenal did excel in pasing and attack. Even Man United had to go down in the defensive line to contain the attack.
One differentiator in the final goal was the late of MC Tominay/ Erickson to close the player on the right side therefore Bissaka had to face two Arsenal players. This sent them into the penalty area and making flat passes. So Arsenal managed to make one more goal for the victory. I somehow assumed that Arsenal's winning goal smelled of offside, but VAR said otherwise. Some analysts said it was offside but the goal was confirmed by the referee. But I admit that Arsenal deserved to win against Manchester United because they played well. But I really regret that Manchester United should have 1 point instead. Arsenal excelled a lot in that match, they had lot of space to shoot and also controlled the match with ball possession. 5 of 20 shots were on target, and 3 of them were goals. Meanwhile, Manchester United just had to defend more often to anticipate Arsenal's attacks. |

as far as I'm concerned, Arsenal is one of the teams that surprise me the most and I think this team will continue to climb, I hope so. If Manchester can lock City away from Wolves (which I believe), then Arsenal are only 2 points away at the moment. Obviously it will force Arsenal to win against Manchester United, but let's see how Arsenal can say Ten Hag's army is also on the rise. I hope Manchester united wins, then the Premier League will become even tighter at the top. It's clear that I know how Arsenal are in form right now, but it's not impossible for Manchester to go for win at the Emirates Stadium. 30 minutes into the match, the main line-up has been announced and I hope Manchester United can surprise the favorites today. |

It is tough to say but it is clear that $16k was way below the intrinsic value of bitcoin whether you want to compute it based on the cost of mining which some people do or based on the historical price movements where $20k was the last bubble's peak we saw back in 2017 and price never goes below it. Not to mention with all the adoption we had price had to have gone up not go down. But when a lot of bitcoin is unloaded on a small market with thinned order books, the price tends to go below the intrinsic value very easily. I agree that $15K is not worth it for bitcoin given the increasingly expensive mining fees. Bitcoin has never dipped and traded below last ATH (at 2017) and $20K and above should be decent value for it. But I can't really be sure what caused bitcoin to break the habit, and now I think it's good to expect bitcoin to retain $20K to its price. |
