Since pochettino got a lot of money as his salary and he was responsible for a lot of bad and good things that happened in the club. Chelsea owned needs to regularly did evaluation to the performance from the club. I did know he has a lot of money but chelsea's owner lack of  knowledge about football. That being said that if chelsea was not willing to fix the problems than the owner shall have replaced pochettino with the new coach. Chelsea has mad a few improvements since last season but this was not as big as people said.
There were many problems occured to the chelsea and pochettino seems difficult to sort all of these problems out from the club. Im so happy to see that how some players were starting to show their progress.

Chelsea is spending a lot of money to get so many useless players. Todd was implementing the new rule for chelsea to make its balance sheet to be balanced. Poch needs to welcome with so many criticisms that was coming for chelsea.
Chelsea can be better as long as it will be fully open to the all the fan's criticism. The main problem in chelsea was on its defensive line. The attacking line seems a bit better since mudryk and nkuku have been making a lot of improvements.
The defensive line was very weak coz there was not good defender who can duel in the air. Chelsea was always conceding its goal through crossing which is bad. The club needs to solve it asap.
The way Chelsea owners spree up cash on this team is a big sign of their lack of football knowledge. Like why spend much when you’re trying to rebuild. Okay, let’s accept their erroneous spendings and follow the saying, to whom much is given, much is highly expected. Like there should be a proper evaluation for this team and whoever isn’t performing should be queried because we can’t continue spending such way.

 Yes, Pochettino needs to take note of the criticisms and build this team especially the defense line that keeps conceding cheap goals and yes the attack too needs a fine sharp person heading upfront. If criticisms are being accepted and worked on then I think we’ll see an improved Chelsea soon, they've got fine and quality young players, bringing out the best in them should be pochettino's priority currently, however I think they need to get a quality striker in this current window.

TBH, it is very difficult to see Mbappe leaving PSG, but only in this way can the PSG team become more independent without relying on just 1 player. I mean PSG has always depended on Mbappe for a long time, whereas a team can be said to be very strong if it has solid players without relying on just one player and I also really understand that PSG actually wants to win the title in the UCL but is not strong enough to only rely on one player even though he is a striker does not mean he is the only one who has to score and other players also have to play an important role in scoring.

we can see, for example, Man City in the UCL, even mainstay Haaland didn't score in the final round and Real Madrid didn't just rely on Benzema at that time.
well, this is the reason I say that the time has come for PSG to be independent and learn to become a more solid team and be able to win titles in any competition even without Mbappe. I'm sure PSG can be even better.
  Mbappe leaving PSG is one news that’ll scare them a whole lot but I think his departure is what the team needs generally now though so as to be able to play and harness on their various individual strengths. The whole team is being shouldered by just Mbappe and when he’s not up to do the biddings, they tend to suffer in the match. I think they need to let him go if he insists and build a better a strong team that would succeed even without his presence.

 Champions don’t build the team around a single players rather they try to make sure the player stands out while everyone is shining and that’s what most teams like Real Madrid and Man City does. PSG would love to win the UCL but leas competition in the league might not be making them see the need to improve on individual strengths rather than relying on an individual.

Well, something I have learned in football is that any situation is possible, and basically things can be favorable for a team at a given time, but it can change drastically if it is done in the most correct way, if the mathematical possibilities are there, Any scenario that we imagine is possible and very possible, we know that in this case things can be somewhat difficult for Al Nassr, but as I have said before, the things and the cards are on the table and any event can happen, if We take into consideration that this may be a viable issue, since we can take it for granted that we already declare Al Hilal the champion, but that is not the case, it is as you say, there is a remote possibility that Al Hilal loses often, who says that it is not possible If it is within the possibilities, and mathematically it can happen, then why not? The other, who is Al Nassr, cannot give up or give in, much less bow his head, and they also have one of the best judges in the world, so the bears can happen.

If Al Hilal lose their games from now on, at least 4 and Al Nassr wins them, who would come out on top? That's not because Al Hilal is invincible, things are very much in their favor, but it's something that could happen, so this type of football for me is basically new, what could happen, but if we don't go to a Bundesliga, 7 fucking is not good, any team could reach them, and if we go to a 2nd Budesliga then nothing is certain, it is probable that they will lose the first place, so these things sometimes we cannot be so sure, I don't know very well how the bears are This football can be so consistent, because they are very different styles of play, although I cannot deny that this football has grown a lot and that it looks Completely different, and that is what I like , because I think things can be seen correctly by making a small sketch.

Well football like I usually say is a game of 90 minutes and till the end of that 90 minutes, we can only analyze based on how excellent or poorly they play. Yes, it’s a game and can go either ways so we must take that into consideration too. Al-Nassr are really behind on their run for the title and with the way Al-Hilal plays we can already crown them champions, the question is can  Al-Nassr meet up with them?

 But anything can make this Al-Hilal team go south at any point and injury is one factor that can’t be overlooked. If Al-Hilal have some losses then I think that’ll open up the gap for Al-Nassr. This is what football has thought us that no space is safe till after 90 minutes. Well the development of football is also another creative addition that has made football grow and we must applaud the football body.
1704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 04, 2024, 08:35:34 PM

Juventus absence from European competition is indeed beneficial in the sense that it can focus completely on Serie A or the Coppa Italia. But in terms of business and income, this is a big loss, because they lost a number of club revenues. I think Juventus management needs to be careful and considerate in managing the club, so that in the future they will not receive similar sanctions again. Now Juventus competition with Inter Milan is tight, and I think that this competition will last until the end of the season.

We know that Inter will face more challenges in the future, because they have more match schedules and more difficult competitions such as the Champoin League. This is indeed beneficial for Juventus, but Allegri must also be consistent in his own matches, because it would be useless for Inter to slip if Juventus cannot collect full points in their own matches. A simple scenario but requires concentration and hard work to make it happen.
Asides the Copa Italia this season, there's no other outside contest Juventus will be a part of. They're aimed at securing the Serie A trophy even if Inter won't make it easy for them. The battle will be intense too and so many game wins are expected from both teams. Especially Inter that's currently the league leaders and got no plans to drop yet, their main focus is on winning the Serie A.

 Tonight, their win is certain in the Copa Italia contest and they'd advance to the finals, although, they'll be rivaled with Roma who are also fierce to bag the trophy. So I'd say that this season, Juventus two trophy chances are just slim and with extra effort, the odds are either they take both or take one or take none. Let's see how the next months would unfold till the season is wrapped up

Exactly why coaches sometimes have a very different position from their players now, it is much better for those coaches who have been soccer players, because they understand that they cannot teach technique to them, they only know the way to do it. They look after the players and they want to attract them so that they do their job according to their direction. In the case of Mou, he understands this very well, in fact he has always expressed what I am saying, because there are many who want it to be get in and play, for example a very clear one is ten Hag, he wants all his players to play as he says so even his technique, but this is not like that, but for me that is a failed coach, the fact that he also He got involved with a star and leaving it on the bank is something that only he would do, a star is for use, not to make her feel lesser, these are things that I will never understand, now the case is completely different CR7 is triumphing and Ten Hag is sinking more and more.

So it is very different from buying with technicians like Ancelotti, who is doing very well with Madrid, with Zidane, who was a great example winning many things, the current clear example of a Xabio Alonso who is doing wonderfully, for He is a player and an example coach, because what he is currently doing in Leverkusen gives a lot to talk about correctly, he is a coach who is very good, in fact he is winning and it is probable that he could win the Bundelsiga, that is something that speaks very highly of him and can always make a difference, now a technician who I see something wrong is Xavi in Barcelona, I was recently reading an article where they told him that if he didn't do something that could give him titles on a large scale Very good, but he was no longer going to work with them, and it is complicated, because despite the fact that he is in a very good position, he is losing a game that he should not lose.
Well coaches who’ve been soccer players still perform poorly and it’s quite worrisome but that’s a story for another day. I think our focus today’s on a coach’s philosophy and how he tries to manage his players and make sure he’s carrying everyone along knowing that we can only have 11 players on the field of play. This factor is what makes Ten Haag seems like a failed coAch because he’s had issues with most of his players and most times those rift result in them losing some matches. A big case is that of Ronaldo, I think after the whole criticism on his age and all, we can see Ronaldo flourishing in Saudi and leading on the list of go scorers and yet Manchester United struggle to get points to remain valid in the league.

 The likes of Ancelotti and Zidane are clear examples of coaches with the right philosophy and another sweet example of a good coach with right teachings is Xabi and his Leverkusen side. The fluidity in the team is top notched, he’s managed the full team for a season and half and yet no rift with a player to affect team’s performance.
1706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 04, 2024, 07:27:45 PM

Kane arrived at the right time to help Bayern Munchen maintain their dominance in the Bundesliga, as Laverkusen pressed them in a very different way than Dortmund had done in the last decade. Kane goal productivity has helped Bayern Munchen create consistency and compete at the top of the current standings, so it could be said that his signing from Tottenham was the best transfer last summer.

Kane has often won individual awards since he was at Tottenham, his personal target currently is to win the championship trophy with Bayern Munchen. I also think the same as you, Kane has the opportunity to gain success with Bayern Munchen, their bargaining value in every competition is very good and so many people are favorites with Tuchel current squad.
Kane's addition to the German side have been fruitful. He's been a major in their positive game outcomes, even though they're striving to get past their competitor on the table. Kane has been impactful and his contract is still open till 2027 with Munich which gives him ample time to do more with the team.
He's been consistent in his job as the striker and he's not stopping at just letting goal chances slip by him.

 He's quality and his ability speedily increases weekly. His time at Tottenham was worthwhile and him joining the German side have even more increased his worthiness to be a standing forward. This is a door to greater football awards opportunity. He's young and has got spare time at his disposal too. His time with Spurs was great and his time currently with the German side is even greater.
1707  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Portuguese League - Liga Portugal 2023/24 on: January 04, 2024, 06:52:05 PM

Look at the top four teams of the Portuguese league, they are a team that can compete with most teams in Europe. I especially like Benfica in recent years. Even though they are in second place in the league this year, there is only a 1 point difference between them and the leader. I can say that as good as the top tier teams are in Portugal, the middle tier teams are almost unheard of. The league is enjoyable because there is competition between four teams. The Portuguese also constitute an important player market in Europe.
The top four teams in this league have an impact in the league's projection as their level of performance have helped them stand a chance with other teams in the European contest. This is actually the biggest competition in the continent and not all teams stand a chance to compete, only the top performing teams.

 Benfica, Sporting and Porto are teams under the Portuguese umbrella that have over the years been able to prove themselves worthy to still always compete in the European contests. The whole scenario isn't about to change yet though as currently they're still standing top in the league and have made good impacts already in this season UCL and UEL too. And I believe the winner of this season's tournament would be any of those three mentioned.

Bayern likes him but acmilan dislikes bayern's interest and there's no way for bayern to get him from acmilan. Tuchel shall need to find an alternative player to replace him. This is going to be the hardest mission but nothing impossible.
Bayern has very good reputation that can be used to attract the good defender. Why doesn't bayern try to attract meguire to come in? It will be so good to have meguire in the bayern.

Acmilan being so harsh toward any offer that was targeting fikayo. The chance owned by tuchel to recruit him was almost zero and i hope he can understand it by try to find alternative solution for him.
There are so many worthy defenders are still capable enough to help bayern to play better. Tuchel needs to find that as soon as possible.

He can start to target leverkusen's defender too. Bayern was trying so hard to lure guirassy to come. There's nothing wrong in giving an excellent offer for leverkusen's defender too.
It's caused by all of leverkusen players ar still on fire and that gives more advantage for bayern. Tuchel has a lot of unfinished jobs.
Bayern conceding some funny goals is one major reason Thomas would want to strengthen his defense line this season. Now he’s gunning for Fikayo of AC milan. This is one surviving and key player of Milan’s defense. Milan aren’t ready to lose him anytime soon and so they’ll be frowning on any move to take their pivot defender out of the team as this is their key to their defense line.

 Now it’s still early and it’ll be better Tuchel and Bayern look out for some other alternatives in other leagues so as to have an effective team this season. Leverkusen have some good defenders and could let go one or two so as to strengthen the squad’s midfield or attack. The earlier the better for Bayern and Tuchel, cause Leverkusen is really on their next and don't want to let go.

Even though in the H2H Atletico Madrid dominated the victory over Girona, this cannot be used as an excuse because this season Girona appeared with different strengths and was full of surprises. Moreover, Girona sometimes plays alone, of course their game comes out attacking. Players like Tsygankov and Savio will mastermind attacks from the wings and send passes into the penalty box in the hope that Dovbyk can use them to score goals.

I predict that in the course of this match, Girona will take advantage of Simeone's strategy of playing waiting and counterattacking. So I also predict that this match will be won by Girona with a narrow score, because their enthusiasm will be even higher to get three points after seeing Real Madrid get three points after beating Mallorca in the previous match.
Girona are one big surprise in Europe this season even though they sit pretty below with GD to Real Madrid yet they’re doing so well. The attack of this Girona team has been on fire since Matchday 1 and doesn’t seem to stop scoring anytime soon and that’s one big surprise to European fotball. Well what investment does to a team are the tremendous changes experienced by this Girona team. Athletico also tried to put a good fight but I think errors frrom Oblak helped Girona who also took advantage of these errors and get the victory.

 Real Madrid also got all 3 points after having over 17 shots on target managed to convert one of these shots to a goal. I think the attack needs to start playing as a team rather than individually lest they still want to remain top. Girona is lurking around and they don't seem like they're relenting.

Of course Al Hilal recruited these two players because they believed they could strengthen Al Hilal in the Saudi League, but it turned out that Neymar could not be expected at all because he was injured and he is a failed Al Hilal recruit. So he had to be dropped from the Al Hilal squad so that Al Hilal can recruit new players from Europe, but even so, Al Hilal is still performing well even without Neymar because Alexsander Mitrovic is able to play very well in the current Al Hilal squad and is able to score many goals for the Al Hilal club.
Meanwhile, Karim Benzema has not made a good contribution to Ittihad, perhaps because of the lack of players who help Benzema in creating opportunities so that Benzema has a little difficulty in scoring goals.

Al Nassr has not been able to catch up because so far Al Hilal has not experienced a defeat at all, while Al Nassr has experienced 3 defeats, so Al Nassr has to wait for Al Hilal to experience the first and second defeats so that the difference between Al Nassr and Al Hilal becomes smaller.
Neymar and Mitrovic were 2 massive recruitments that Al Hilal made to conquer the Spl but it’s quite unfortunate that Neymar isn’t delivering on this duty. Though we can’t take away the works Mitrovic has done and the contribution if his other team mates and European stars. So I think this reason Al Hilal took off Neymar from the squad list so as to get a better replacement from Europe so as to keep maintaining top spot.

 Karim is still not finding his feet yet especially as his club isn’t doing pretty well and had some crises but I believe he needs one sweet midfielder to pair uo with Ngolo that will be able to help him upfront. With Neymar absence yet Al Nassr haven’t been able to come close to get Al Hilal, but they’ve got to hope on Al Nassr not maintaining winning form and slipping up in. At least 2 matches so as to be able, while waiting I think they also need to make sure they are winning too so the wait won’t be in vain.

It is indeed challenging to keep a player of Mbappe's caliber, especially if he has big ambition to write his name in football history. I dont think there is the same quality replacement for him, and I think PSG won't scout for young talents, but they will find an establish good player to replace him, That's what PSG do. Kylian Mbappe is not only a world-class talent but also a key figure in PSG's success.

His departure would undoubtedly leave a significant void in terms of attacking prowess, creativity, and goal-scoring ability. Even if the club identifies promising young talents, the pressure to match Mbappe's impact would be immense. PSG's ability to manage the departure of Mbappe is rooted in the experience and managerial prowess of Luis Enrique. As one of the most experienced managers in France, Enrique has a track record of success and adaptability. His strategic approach to team management and tactical flexibility could potentially mitigate the impact of losing a star player like Mbappe. Luis Enrique's managerial acumen offers a hope for PSG fans. The ability to build and mold a team, even in the absence of a superstar, is a testament to Enrique's coaching abilities.
PSG will really love to keep Kylian at the French capital but it’s going to be very difficult because man wants to win European trophies and bag some self award and it’s going to be hard achieving this at PSG. Now the club needs a replacement and I think that’s one reason why they haven’t come out plain on letting the youngster go, maybe they feel he could change his mind and decide to continue playing for them.

 They don’t need a youngster but they’ll need a player who’s made and will be able and ready to take on the shoes of Kylian in this team. Luis Enrique can be able to adapt but will the youngster with enough potential be able?? Enrique can build the team without a star and I believe he wouldn’t be finding it difficult building but yet the fans would want a big replacement. So i feel Luis will be good in handling this team with or without Mbappe.

Actually, at the beginning of the season, no one saw it coming that Liverpool would mount at the top of the premier league table towards the end of the year. But that doesn't mean Liverpool wasn't on people's minds to be a major contestant in the Premier League title, after mentioning Manchester City and Arsenal.

In previous seasons, someone couldn't mention the major contestants of the Premier League title without Liverpool being on their list of clubs that can be the winner of the PL title.
Now, Liverpool sits on top of the table, which brings more pressure on them to stick to performing well because any match draw or loss from them, brings their rivals(Aston Villa, Manchester City, or Arsenal), closer to them. That's what they wouldn't like to happen to them this season because in the last two seasons, they missed being the PL title holder because of they allow their rival being Manchester City to come closer to them via points, which later was an advantage to Manchester City to lift the PL title that season(2021/2022).
Liverpool are one bit surprise of the season but we can’t call them underrated because they’re a big team. But when you compare them to the likes of Arsenal and Man City at the initial stages of the season they weren’t coming close especially when you check with their last season’s performance. I love their team spirit and their zeal to win the league, which have got them this far.

 Liverpool are sitting on top and their positions isn’t safe yet as any draw or loss will drag them down away from their spot. And this alone brings about healthy challenge and helps the team to improve very well as they’ll now try to keep winning and staying top and it’ll also help in the run for the UEL. FOr the UEL they’ve also got better rivals with the likes of Leverkusen and Milan. Manchester City with an outstanding are on the toes of Liverpool and now the EPL just got more interesting with her title race.

There is a possibility that he will be sold and there is a possibility that he will not, if Mohammed Salah is sold to Saudi Arabia, Liverpool will lose their goalscoring machine because currently Salah is a very important player for Liverpool, while the current depth of Liverpool's squad has no one who can replace Salah's role. If Liverpool sell him in the midst of their struggle to win the Premier League and European League titles, they will experience difficulties, but if Liverpool has bought a replacement for Salah like Mbappe then it is certain that Liverpool losing Salah will be fine.

As far as I know, Mohammed Salah is not yet interested in going to Saudi Arabia even though the Saudi Arabian club is willing to sign him at a high price because he still wants to be in the European league and compete there. In my opinion, M. Salah is not too old to compete in the European league, and that is certain european players will consider going to Saudi Arabia perhaps when they are 35 years or older and Salah has not yet reached that age.
 The possibility of Salah being sold is very high compared to them keeping him. That’s another reason I think the rumor of Kylian to England is up and trending, however I'm being doubtful if Kylian's move to Liverpool would be a reality by summer, but considering the funds they'll receive from the Saudi side I don't think finance would be an issue for them getting him when Salah leaves.

 Yes, they’ll be loosing their goal poacher but with Kylian, I think Salah’s departure wouldn’t much be felt and that’s one credit. Salah might not be interested yet but I think winning the league title will be a perfect sign out for him especially once the fee from the Saudi club is increased. Salah is still fit but I feel it’s pretty better to leave when the ovations are loudest than bowing out with a bad season.

I doubt Milan's performance. I'm not sure if Milan can win the European League title because in my opinion the clubs that are more favorite are Liverpool and Leverkusen. Indeed, in terms of squad, Milan and Liverpool are superior because they have top players compared to Leverkusen, but the players Leverkusen are able to work together well and compactly so that their solidarity is very high and indeed so far the performance of the Leverkusen players is still extraordinary under the guidance of Xabi Alonso so in my opinion it is possible that Leverkusen will be favorites in winning the title this season, whether it is the league trophy Europe or the Bundesliga.

If you talk about Milan not being very stable, I think that's right, but if you say Liverpool is not very stable, I think you are wrong because Liverpool is still quite stable in the domestic league, even they are in 1st place with only 1 defeat so far, and It is true that Leverkusen is still quite consistent and unbeaten to date and that is a good achievement.
Milan are currently a shadow of themselves and they don’t come close to the likes of Liverpool and Leverkusen in terms of squad strength and composure as compared to these 2. Liverpool have the experience while Leverkusen have more fluidity with the ball and that’s a plus for them. Now when you want to compare Milan squad, you can put that this Milan squad suffers injury crisis and that’s one reason they got of the UCL to the UEL and also they’ll be having crazy time trying to fight for a safe spot in their league. But Liverpool and Leverkusen are sitting pretty comfortably on top of their various leagues.

 These clubs have already secured top spot and would fight evenly for the UEL as compared to how Milan might want to put up a fight. Well football has it’s own surprises and that’s always after 90 minutes we can just analyze and the players do the work,  let's watch and see what Milan have to offer in the UEL.

Yes except for the games against Heerenveen and Vitesse Arnheim, all of the games were won by narrow means indeed. That is quite uncommon for Ajax Amsterdam as they are known for beating their opponents big time in the Eredivisie. But I think they appreciate every positive result regardless of whether it was close or not. But what I did not expect was the loss in the KNVB Cup against USVB Hercules. They lost a backdoor to get into the Europa League if they can't make it through their domestic league.
Most teams do not care about cup matches. I think Ajax is one of them. Ajax is normally a much higher quality team than Hercules, but they may have had to face this painful result because they did not care much in the Cup match. While they were eliminated from the cup, Hercules had already gone to celebrate a victory.
Ajax are in a rebuilding phase and yea even if they’ve narrow victories, these victories are very much appreciated as ot helps them clim up the log. Yes they are out of the Cup which could have also helped them secure Europa League spot but I think this will give them more room to focus on the conference league and probably the domestic league so as to get up the ladder. I'm pretty sure they'll qualify for the UCL next season.

 It’s strange why most clubs don’t care about cup matches because the funds alone from these cups can help the club recruit more players and also the gifts of qualification to European competitions is one that every clubs wants. But in this Ajax case I think right now the team is rebuilding and wouldn’t be medical this much competition hence the need to get eliminated and set their focus right.

This will be a concern for Madrid because when it comes to confidence i
 personally have a strong belief that Madrid can advance to the next round because  of the strength and experience they have in the Champions League but in this case there are some concerns that occur from their internal problems.
 
The situation that I know at the moment for Madrid is that they will not be looking for defender especially defensive center which are currently having problems due to the injury of several player who take time but in his statement Ancelotti said that he still believe in several player like Tchouameni, Carvajal and Nacho who can temporarily replace positions in the defensive center of course this could be good but on the other hand it could backfire on them because after all Acelotti selfishness like this happened when Benzema suffered a recurring injury last season and they emphasizdd that they would not bring the striker even though Benzema  went back and forth for treatment which made Madrid experience problem and lost the Champions League  and La Liga trophies last seasons.
Real Madrid is one team with very high players' quality. They've got more young stars and the club is seemingly promising as weeks and seasons go by. Real Madrid's team coordination is top notch, every player knows that they're meant to set the right build up to goals and so they play their specific roles to the best of their ability and leave the finishing work for the forward man.
The young stars are united and are very impressive competitively each passing game.

 Currently, they are a stable team and a manager would not really have a tough time handling the squad. They know what they're after and they know how to get it done adequately. This is part of an advantage to their growth and progress generally. One shouldn't be surprised that these team frequently wins trophies for themselves and won't stop winning too. They've got literally the best squad and management team currently and so they're very much good to go.

Even though in the H2H Atletico Madrid dominated the victory over Girona, this cannot be used as an excuse because this season Girona appeared with different strengths and was full of surprises. Moreover, Girona sometimes plays alone, of course their game comes out attacking. Players like Tsygankov and Savio will mastermind attacks from the wings and send passes into the penalty box in the hope that Dovbyk can use them to score goals.

I predict that in the course of this match, Girona will take advantage of Simeone's strategy of playing waiting and counterattacking. So I also predict that this match will be won by Girona with a narrow score, because their enthusiasm will be even higher to get three points after seeing Real Madrid get three points after beating Mallorca in the previous match.
The second half of the season just got messy for Atletico Madrid. Even after trying all they could to keep the game in their favor or end it with a share of points, the second placed Girona who was also the host had to net in a fourth goal to keep their win certain last night. Despite their good form this season, their victory against Atletico Madrid came as a big surprise, and I'm pretty sure Simeone would be so furious over his team's defeat.

 The game was a serious contest, both sides were reselient and all they wanted was a victory. Luckily for Girona, their struggle paid off and now Atletico Madrid would have to struggle to start rising again. It's also a threat to Madrid that their immediate counterpart is not having a joke this time. Let's see how these teams would keep up till the last days of the season, the question is would Girona continue to maintain their good form or drop along the line?

It's true that Galatasaray is better, even at the beginning of the season they started the league game with a draw which in my opinion must have been because they needed focus for the European Champions League qualifying game, and speaking of which, next galatasaray's game will be against samsunsport, which despite being a weak team that has not yet won any game in the league and coming into this game with two consecutive defeats, could still make galatasaray lose points if the galatasaray coach chooses to put players who are not main players in this game, because after this game Galatasaray, 3 days later, will have a very important game in the European Champions League

Since the European Champions League games give teams money and in this group where Galatasaray is there are big teams like Bayern and Manchester United, so Galatasaray's coach could focus on beating Copenhagen and a victory against Copenhagen I could put Galatasaray in second place in the group or even in first place in the group, because Manchester United are not doing well this season and have a great chance of losing against Bayern and in this group I see that Galatasaray could have some chance of passing, We will see what squad the Galatasaray coach will put in the game against Samsung

This season things will be more difficult for Galatasaray in terms of winning the league, this is because Fenerbahce is doing well in the league, I know we are still at the beginning of the league, there are only 3 games that have been played, but it seems to me that Fenerbahce he is behaving well and this time he will not repeat the same mistake as last season. but it is strange that in 3 games Galatasaray and Fenerbahce have scored a maximum of 5 goals, they have a not very efficient attack power in each game or it could be because the league is starting
Weeks ago, the toughest sides in the Turkish Super Lig played against each other. It was definitely an intense game for both teams as they had in their respective stores what to fight for. The game ended fairly in a goalless draw which only is a sign of how resilient they both were and unwavering too.These sides are good at what they do and they did not also let any factor deprive them of the strength out into the game.

 Galatasaray now has just the Turkish League race to focus on having been knocked out of the Champions league and it's an advantage for them to build up enough capacity to stay out at their top spot and for Fernabache, the struggle is up and they're definitely up to whatsoever task put before  them too. Subsequent games in the league would begin after the New Year break and then we'd have the competition for the league trophy back on. These two teams have always been an upper hand in the league and maybe it'll be repeated this season as well.

It would indeed still be a significant achievement if Xabi Alonso can elevate Bayer Leverkusen without winning a championship. The ability to lift a team from a disadvantaged position and guide them to a more competitive standing is a testament to his managerial skills. The progress and improvement of the team itself are noteworthy achievements. He's been enhancing the performance of individual players and contributing to their development, it reflects positively on his coaching abilities. A coach's impact on the growth of the players and the team's overall skill level is a substantial marker of success.

If Alonso manages to instill a winning mindset, discipline, and a strong work ethic within the club, it signifies success beyond just winning a trophy. He is building a foundation for sustained success and creating a team that consistently competes at a high level can be more valuable than a one-time championship. Facing the challenges of coaching and steering a team through adversity requires resilience and patience. The support from stakeholders can be a strong indicator of the positive impact he's had on the team.
Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. Even though it's not so certain yet as there are still games to determine the victor, there's every possibility that there may be change of hands this season.
Munich are doing their best to match up the intensity of contest and they have to be careful cause if they drop more points, they would be giving Leverkusen more advantage to change the Bundesliga history.

 Leverkusen are putting forward. Definitely they can hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race. The time is sure going to be tough for all their opponents and the games will go almost to the last end before a victor can be confirmed.

Setting priority is importance when a club has 3 competitions to play in, especially a club who who lack of squad depth. Napoli and Inter Milan losing to Frosinone and Bologna, respectively, demonstrate that The Coppa Italia is the last in their priority list, because they have Champions league games and Serie A as the main focus. This is why the unpredictability is part of what makes the Coppa Italia captivating for fans.

Roma's serious approach to winning the Coppa Italia this season, despite facing challenges against Cremonese, reflects the competitive nature of the tournament. The fact that Roma had to work hard to overcome Cremonese's lead demonstrates the level of competition in the Coppa Italia and reinforces the idea that teams cannot take anything for granted. Juventus facing Salernitana will go on full strength striving to win, because they aim the Coppa Italia as securing silverware for the season. This concentrated focus may result in a determined and committed performance from Juventus. It's not a good news for Salernitana for sure.
The Copa Italia race is on and it's confirmed that this trophy is eyes more by Roma. They sustained a 2-1 victory yesterday night as well and they seemed fully charged for what lies ahead. Of all the teams that have advanced to the next round of the contest, they're the only ones with high determination to get to the end and win. And I trust José Mourinho to lead his team to the final.

 They've got the entire skill set needed and they're eager to put efforts. Milan on their own hand gave defaults that they may not be able to get pass with even if they're able to defeat Atalanta. One would believe that Napoli, Inter Milan are not aimed for the trophy. Inter are aiming for the Serie A cup and Napoli are striving to create relevance and also secure a UCL spot too even with their squad loopholes.
