Damn, Chelsea finished the transfer window with 570 million euros net spend.
Enzo Fernandez is a good player but 120 million seems way over the line.
8 new players in this transfer window alone - somebody's been playing too much Football Manager.
I wonder where will all these players get playing minutes if Chelsea misses out on European spots.
It's hard to understand why Enzo was so expensive, since he was just average at the World Cup. It is indeed a huge deal for Enzo, and I hope that he repays the amount with an outstanding performance. The club has signed eight new players in this transfer window alone, but most won't get enough playing time and will end up being a waste of money. Signing so many young players was a huge gamble for Chelsea, but somehow they all didn't lived up to what was expected. |

In one of the matches of BPL, Khulna Tigers were playing against Comilla Victorians. Good score of 210 runs have come out of Khulna Tigers with Tamim Iqbal scoring 95 runs and Shai Hope, Barbadian cricketer have scored 91* runs. Both have missed the century by a small margin. For Comilla Victorians scoring have started good. Litton Das who is a star cricketer of the team have gone to the pavilion retired hurt. By the end of three overs CV have reached 24 runs losing the wicket of Kayes.
This is really embarrassing for the Khulna Tigers which is currently at the sixth spot while we have seven teams in the league they fail to win match after scoring 210 in their match against Comilla Victorians which are currently at the third spot after having 12 points from their nine games what an amazing display of batting from both sides first Tamim Iqbal and Shai Hope having 184 runs partnership after losing first quick wicket but in reply we have another best show of batting from the Victorians with Mohammad Rizwan and Johnson Charles having 122 runs partnership with 11 sixes from the Charles who score 107 on just 56 balls and Mohammad Rizwan having 79 runs on just 39 balls with the help of 4 sixes now things looking some clear after we are heading for the end of round matches. As of now, this is the best score of the season where Khulna Tigers bowlers have suffered a lot of damage! So far, this is the highest run chase in this tournament. 211 runs are chased by Comilla Victorians with 10 balls left thanks to Johnson Charles and Mohammad Rizwan's super energetic batting! Following an early dismissal and an injured Das, Rizwan played a crucial role. A knock of 73 out of 39 was played by Rizwan according to the situation. However, it was Johnson's century that made all the difference. |

Although as we know, Madrid experienced a slight decline in performance and was five points behind Barcelona. Madrid's decline in performance is not without reason, the problem is that some of their core players have been injured. to the extent that, Don Carlo rotated his midfielder to become a defender during the match against Sociedad. nonetheless, I'm sure Don Carlo will bring his team back to the real track.
I've been waiting for that. The cycle of Madrid's success is always cyclical, so changes can happen. A goalless draw against Real Sociedad resulted in them dropping points. There is no way that Real Madrid can keep up this form until the end of the season, Ancelotti might be able to turn things around for his team. |

It was a great tournament for Djokovic. No one has been able to thwart him, but players like Nadal and Alcaraz have not really participated. Not Alcaraz at all and Nadal also had to give up in a match in one of the first rounds. Furthermore, no one has come close to Djokovic, but he was also very keen to win this tournament after he was not allowed to participate last year. He has not made himself popular with many fans because of his attitude to the corona virus that he absolutely did not want to get a vaccination. But you can't continue to judge someone on that basis, of course. If we look purely at his technical qualities, he deserved to win. Tsitsipas had 1 set point in the final in the 2nd set, but was unable to use it.
Yes, it was a great tournament and he was very interesting to see. I've never seen Djokovic cry for minutes on the floor next to the team after the final and afterwards. The ice man went and the exploding man came. He said it was the biggest victory I've ever won, as if he hadn't won 21 grand slams. He is 35 years old, but still mentally, he is approaching the end of his 25th career and I thought he would pass the flag to the next generation of Russians, but this covid issue has made the man very aware and passionate. He will probably last another 5 years comfortably. 30 grand slams are on the horizon. Without a doubt, nothing will ever be the same when a messi and novak leave in sports in general. There has never been a more sweet victory than this. As a result of the victory, he has become very emotional. Humans are capable of such reactions after all. The reason I supported Djokovic is due to the fact that he had to win this tournament. It was well deserved for him, and I am delighted that he won. It's great to see him playing well here too. He's really strong. The fact that they are still able to win Grand Slams at their ages while tying for 22 Grand Slams between them says a lot about their tenacity. We'll have to wait and see what happens at the French Open at the end of May, then at Wimbledon and US Open later on. Continue to keep up the good work. |

After successfully wining the T20WC it seems the English side doesn't want to do the same for ODIWC. This teams performance in ODI has been going from bad to worst. I understand that South Africa has the home advantage but after scoring 342 runs if the English bowlers are not able to defend this total then their is a big problem that needs to be looked into.
It was unbelievable to me that England would lose this match after setting a big target of 342 runs. After watching England's innings, I assumed that England will win this match. But at the end of the match I was quite surprised to see the result. Except for Olly Stone and Sam Curran, every bowler in England scored a lot of runs. We expected a better performance from an experienced team like England. Although the batsmen have performed their duties well, the bowlers need to improve their performance. Yes match surprised me too. South Africa played really well. Temba has made century and made 109 runs for 102 balls. England bowling was bad in this match or we can say that South Africa was looking strong both are correct statements. We can see Adil Rashid gave 72 runs on 60 balls and out two players of South Africa. The target was really good but South Africa chased it in 49.1 overs and gave 5 wickets. That was a great match. After a long time the Proteas finally succeeded in their mission. Temba Bavuma's brilliant third century in career gave the Proteas an incredible victory. Chasing a target of 342 runs, the Proteas had to fight till the last over. It is noticed that all the South African batsmen got good runs in the last match. South Africa won their series with the loss of just 5 wickets in their combined effort. Next 1 February, they will again enter the field to play the last match of the series. The South African team is in good form they may likely to win the last match as well. The task of chasing down a total such as that is not easy, especially when you are up against a formidable opponent like England. The team chased a big target thanks to Temba Bavuma's superb century and sealed the series with a game remaining. There has been immense pressure put on Temba, so this is the most appropriate response. South Africa's recovery against the current world champions is great news for international cricket, on which they should be congratulated for their collective effort. The SA bowling line-up should be taken into consideration for winning the series 3-0. |

This is something I didn't see coming. The most highly regarded player in the Manchester City team, Joo Cancelo, is set to leave the Premier League after signing with Bayern Munich. The deal was rumored to happen in the summer 2023, but it has now been finalized. Joao Cancelo will join Bayern Munich on loan with a purchase option from Manchester City. Bayern is scheduled to schedule medical tests in the next 24 hours following the reports of Fabrizio Romano. For Cancelo, Bayern is a better fit.

I don't expect Liverpool to finish in the top 6 of the points table. Liverpool's performance is erratic. Another reason is that teams like Brighton and Brentford are performing quite well. And consistently these teams are able to play well. And so even if Liverpool can perform well, it is very difficult for them to get into the 6th of the points table. And less likely. Despite having so many star players, it is difficult to accept Liverpool's performance.
Firmino, Arthur and Diogo Jota will fully comeback on the late February, but before that there are 3 matches Liverpool need to face, it's against Wolves, Everton and Newcastle. I will say Liverpool will have bad result in those 3 matches because they will play without 3 players which I mentioned above, Liverpool can drop to 12-14th position at the worst case. But after then they will start to recover and may likely become top 6 clubs since there are still many match to go. For bettors, you need to use this chance to make a lot money. I think it's not wrong to bet Wolves, Everton and Newcastle on draw no bet option, so you wouldn't lose your money if the match end in draw. They were eliminated from the FA Cup, the Carabao Cup, and ranked 9th in the Premier League this season. Hope everything doesn't last forever, that it isn't the end of Liverpool FC, and that they will be back stronger than ever. The worst-case scenario is Liverpool could drop to 12-14th place. If a key player is lost, it cannot be easily repaired. The team needs to be rebuilt again by Klopp. Despite having a good core, he needs fresher players. There is no hope for Liverpool! There will certainly be a lot of money to be made from this, I am not sure though. |

The game will soon be over and it's not too good for Madrid if they draw in this match especially Barcelona now getting away.
Extra time started and they still can't break through the current defense of Sociedad.
Looks like Madrid now has to really make something interesting because even 1 point is good enough but not too good in competition with Barcelona this time.
The match ended up draw 0-0 which is not giving people joy, because many people predicted for the favour of Real Madrid hope that they will play them with all their strength to achieve three points from the match but Real Sociedad never allow such opportunity to come to Real Madrid. I think, Real Madrid coach need to work hard to improve the players before their next match because their performance is reducing gradually in this season, and Barcelona is still maintaining the first position in the la Liga league table. I don't think, Barcelona will miss this title this season because their players are well organized in all their position to prove to people that they will achieve something good from this tournament. A team that is overly trusting of its players will suffer under Ancelotti's leadership. The fact that Barcelona are improving while Madrid are losing their position cannot be denied. With Real Madrid's draw against Real Sociedad, Barcelona now leads La Liga by five points. Madrid landed where they are today because of both sloppy play and bad luck. Barcelona has played well so far, but they have also been lucky, which has helped them succeed. Obviously, Real Madrid will perform well, but I'm not sure if it will happen, let's see. |

Barcelona had to work hard to win this match. Most of the advantage in the game is gained by the opposing team. However, Barcelona's defense lineup played superbly. Barcelona are currently in their best form.
Barcelona continues to maintain its winning trend in week 18 of Laliga this season. An additional 3 points has made Barcelona back firmly at the top of the standings by collecting 47 points for the time being. Girona is not a weak opponent for Barcelona in this match considering that Xavi squad had to try really hard in the second half to break into the goal guarded by Gazzaniga. Even though with a narrow victory, Barcelona, which was not strengthened by Lewandowski in this match due to a slight injury, made Barcelona front line in this match not too aggressive in pressing its opponent. today match between real madrid vs Real sociedad is a crucial point for the two teams in this match because if real madrid fails in this match then they will be even further away from Barcelona in points. Barcelona is just far too good to lose to Girona, it was obvious from the start that they would end up with a win and that is what happened as well. I believe that we could probably see them get a win for a while, only trouble is the game against Madrid. Right now, there is 6 points difference, and with Real playing against Sociedad, I think there is a good chance Real could catch up if they get a win here and then against Barcelona. I think it's much better for Barcelona to focus on that game alone, because that single game could be a decider for their win or not. If they do get a win, plus if Real loses today, that will cause the difference to be 9 points and could be just a title claim at that point. 3 points in the bag despite a very poor performance. As luck would have it, Barcelona has the 3 points, but they need to change our strategy, otherwise, it will end in tears. Barcelona is in a dangerous situation, so they must be careful. For Dembele, let's hope it's a minor injury that won't hinder his recovery. With 6 points difference between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, Xavi's FC Barcelona continues to climb. With only six clear points in hand, Barcelona is on course to win La Liga. Barca still has a long season ahead of them, so It's possible that Madrid will catch up next game. In today's match, Real Madrid will face Real Sociedad for a chance to catch up with them. |

Indian U19 women bowlers are doing an excellent job at the moment. England has already lost 6 wickets and have just score 53 runs. I am not expecting a big total in this final match but if Indian bowlers are bowling good that doesn't mean that the English bowlers cannot bowl in the same way. Indian batters & especially the captain needs to be calm and focus on the game.
Indian women's team played very well they always play well and beating England is not too difficult for them. England women's team will not even cross 100 runs. Maybe target 80-85 runs maximum. India women's team will beat England by overshooting this target in just 13-15 overs. India is at the top of the cricket game, neither men's nor women's team of India is looked down upon. Both played superbly With 68 runs to their name, England's women have been all out. This was an outstanding performance from India, both on the field and with the ball! Indian players fielded brilliantly in this final match. In order to win the title, the Indian women need just 69 runs. As a result, these girls deserve to succeed more than any other women's cricket team. |

South Africa Cricket Team vs England Cricket Team in Second ODI Match. South Africa cricket team won the toss and welcome England cricket team to bat. In today's match England cricket team has performed quite well in batting. England cricket team may be able to score 300+ after completing 50 overs in today's match. If the England cricket team can strengthen their bowling line-up in the second innings, they may have a chance to win the match against South Africa.
What a come back from the England team. At one time they were 33 for 2 and they ended up scoring 342 runs. Harry Brook and Jos Buttler scored a massive 80 and 94 each, which helped England to score this big target. I feel that South Africa won be able to chase this big target. Remember in the first ODI, England failed to chase the target of 298. So chasing big score will not easy here. Big comeback into the game. 342 runs is a good score, and with the good bowling England can surely win the match. Jos Butler missed his century, though he hasn't lost his wicket. Early wicket loss made this to be a low scoring innings, but the middle order the best to reach a better score. South Africa have reached 33 runs in five overs without losing wickets. De Cock and Bavuma on the crease will try to stand wicket which is a must to chase big targets. The comeback from England is much needed as SA has already taken a 1-0 lead. Buttler, Brook, and Moeen provided England with an imposing total despite struggling to get runs to start. An impressive captain knocked by Jos Butler but missed out on a well-deserved hundred. A total of 64 runs has been scored by South Africa in ten overs without losing any wickets. As both De Cock and Bavuma are at the top, SA will be able to reach this total with their help of them as it stands now. |

The 27th Match of Bangladesh Premier League 2023 started today at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet. Khulna Tigers won the toss and elected to bowl. Comilla Victorians came in to bat. Comilla Victorians scored 39 runs in 7.2 overs. Comilla Victorians have not lost any wicket so far. .If Litton Das can score 50 runs in today's match then Comilla Victorians team may have a chance to win. Khulna Tigers are not bowling very well in bowling. So far they have not taken any wicket.
Comilla Victorians batted first and set a target of 165 runs. But Khulna Tigers managed to score 161 runs in 20 overs to lose the match by just 4 runs. I think this is a very sad incident. It was a very hard fought game between these two teams. Comilla Victorians. The batsmen played well. Especially Litton Das and Rizwan these two batsmen showed great performance. Litton Das got out with 50 runs off 42 balls. Rizwan scored 54 runs off 47 balls. As a result of lack of intent and runs in the opening half of the chase, Khulna fell short of their target. T20 cricket is all about getting your tactics right and making the most of the powerplay. While chasing, Khulna made a series of mistakes that led to their loss by four runs. As a result of Litton Das and Rizwan's great performances, the Comilla Victorians should be happy. |

Novak has another fairly dominant performance. In his 10th final at the Australian Open, Novak Djokovic defeated Tommy Paul to face Stefanos Tsitsipas! In the final, the AO king returns to his rightful place. On Sunday, he will hopefully reclaim his crown! Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas are playing for more than just a trophy. It would be great to see Novak win a 10th Australian Open crown and 93rd career title. It would be great if Tsitsipas surprised everyone and a new name would be added to the trophy.

Finally arsenal is out of FA cup competition by losing to Manchester city with 1-0.the match was not as I think, I was expecting the game to be tougher than this with more dangerous attacks from both teams but really I don't see much of that in the today's game.i don't really know why arteta did not use his first eleven in today's match. Or is it he when to concentrate on premier league more than this FA cup? But at last they are kicked out of the FA cup competition now.
Let see what will happen to favorite teams to win FA Cup maybe some will be kick out tomorrow or next tomorrow, who knows? But I still believe Manchester united because they always use their full squad to play any competition nowadays and with that, it will be hard for any team to defeat that their full squad just like that, despite that FA cup competition is hard to predict.
Man City shows that they are still a team that wins trophies and another big win for them. They continue to beat Arsenal in head to head matches and i guess Guardiola knows Arteta too well so he would lose against him. Arsenal still need to focus on the premier league and continue their good streak because if they slip up Man City will catch them. Mikel Arteta received another lesson from Guardiola. Teachers remain teachers regardless of how good their students are. It's a good lesson for you, Arteta. Don't let the premier league title slip away from your hands, be more serious and focus on it. It is vital that Arsenal continues their winning streak in the EPL that actually matters to people. |

South Africa - England
South Africa won the toss and batted in the first ODI match against England. South Africa managed to collect 61 runs in the first wicket pair. A good enough collection. And at the end of 10 overs, South Africa collected 71 runs. South Africa's batsmen have got off to a good start. South Africa should not forget their opponent England. England is a very strong team. So if they want to win against England, South Africa will have to give a big target. The pitch is not bowling-friendly. Batsmen are scoring runs easily. So my guess is that South Africa will not win if they give a target of less than 320 today.
SA 232/4 (41.3/50 over) It's just a matter of speeding up the run rate for South Africa. A good wicket for batting but too slow for batting. Rassie van der Dussen has batted well so far. He has now reached his 12th ODI half-century and is still going strong. SA will be fine if they just increase their scoring rate a bit. However, he cannot afford to take any risks since only Miller and he remain as recognized batsmen. It is recommended that they bat until the 45th over, then bat hard in the last 5 overs to reach 320+ by the end. |

In today's T20I match, India vs New Zealand match is going to start in a short time. Meanwhile Shubman Gill is the opening batsman on the other hand it would be best to have Ishan Kisan. Once their pair survives, India's chances of victory in today's T20 match are high, while New Zealand can't survive with India. We have seen some games in the past where New Zealand have lost by huge margins so it remains to be seen what New Zealand can do in today's match. New Zealand must be most careful on the wicket side and put in a good bowling performance if they want to progress.
T20 is entirely different from ODI and due to the shortened duration it gives more chances to the underdogs to perform upsets. So India should be more cautious this time around. Also, in T20 format, toss plays an important role. Once again, the pitch at JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi is likely to favor the batsmen. So the team winning the toss will be at an advantage. BTW, Benjamin Lister is going to make his debut for New Zealand today. He is a left-arm seamer who has performed well in New Zealand domestic cricket (especially in the Super Smash T20 tournament). The unbeaten run of Hardik Pandya in Ranchi can continue? There are a lot of talented and aggressive players in the Indian team. It may be possible for them to defeat a depleted NZ side. We can expect a good and even contest. The two teams are evenly matched. We are missing the big guns. However, the young one is going to fight it out. In T20 matches, key moments are often determined by bowling or hitting the winning run. I'm interested in seeing which batsman gets the lights because it's likely to favor the batsmen. |

Cristiano Ronaldo's start at Al-Nassr has been rocky. A 3-1 victory over Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad knocked Cristiano Ronaldo and his club out of the Saudi Super Cup semifinals. In his last two games, he has scored zero goals. The one thing he lacks is the ability to create chances, which is one of the reasons we expect a slow start from him as a striker. It is possible that he will improve over time. However, it has been said he carried the teams by himself. Hopefully, he can repeat it with Al-Nassr, where he plays now.

Yeah but it seems like that real madrid was coming back again. Real madrid has been defeating atletico madrid through a dramatic match. Atletico madrid's player was only making a single mistake but it was leading the team to the lose. 1 red card is enough to change everything. Will wee see barcelona against real madrid again in the final of copa del rey? i hope this will come true. i would be so glad to see that if barcelone will be facing real madrid again at the final of copa del rey.
barcelona must be careful as real madrid is starting to perform so well again.
It is still a mystery as to how Atletico lost despite being on top, but Real Madrid will surely pay the price. It only takes one mistake, one red card to change everything, as you mentioned. It is very likely that we will see Barcelona against Real Madrid again in the final of the Copa del Rey, since both teams are still in it. We can't just say Barca will lift the trophy again because Madrid is performing so well. There is a little by little-heat building up in the competition. |

PSG have boosted their morale incredibly much after winning their game in the Coupe de France by 7-0. Maybe they played against a very weak team but this result would still be helpful for them to be better.
They have lost quite many points in the league these days. This was a big help for teams like Lens and Marseille to catch up with them. However in the long run I still expect PSG to secure their title in the league. They are still way stronger than any team remaining here. It is only up to PSG players to stay focused and keep a good winning streak. Lens - Marseille duo are more likely to drop down from the title competition at a point in my opinion. But I'd really love to see this title competition lasting nearly until the end of the season.
The score was 7-nil and that is definitely a big accomplishment. Despite losing their last competitive game, PSG got an impressive result in this matchup. A total of five goals were scored by Mbappe in the match. The facts are obvious, and these cannot be normalized. The team has lost quite a few points in the league games, yet is still ranked first in the standings. In the point table, Lens is positioned second while Marseille is at third. Having a smaller points difference than PSG, if they fail to continue winning streaks, Lens and Marseille could threaten them. It's unlikely that PSG will drop any more points intentionally since they are aware of the facts. |

 Source: Transfermarkt It looks like the competition between these two teams will never end in the transfer market. Arsenal and Chelsea are both interested in signing one of the young players, Amadou Onana from Everton. He plays as a midfielder and of course his services will be very good in securing the midfield. Which of these two teams will succeed in signing the contract from Amadou Onana?  if this is real then, expect Chelsea to clinch it f on Arsenal as usual. Chelsea new owner is doing everything to get the club back to it Glory days. Whatsoever players Potter Graham wants he buy for him. If Potter Graham is really in need of Amaduo Obama then Arsenal will lose out. 21 year old young football player. It has promising potential. He is a quality player who will be very good for both Arsenal and Chelsea. Whoever wins this race, I think Everton will be the most profitable team. He's taller than a midfielder, which will make him more effective at air balls. It's been a very active transfer season for Chelsea. It's hard to find a midfielder as talented and talented as Onana, who has great defensive and tackling skills. In an effort to convince Amadou Onana to switch to Chelsea, Chelsea got in touch with his entourage. Also, Arsenal has made contact with Everton about signing Amadou Onana. Everton needs some money to improve their current position, so Onana has become a playing card. Although Onana prefers to stay at Everton, he is focused on the season's remaining matches. |
