Good news for all Barcelona fans - Gavi has finally agreed to a contract extension. The new one is valid until the summer of 2026.
The release clause is now an already standardized 1 billion euros - and is becoming totally pointless.
Gavi is one of the most promising youngsters around and Barca's board will be thrilled to have finally got this done and signed.
Gavi who is still 18 years old is a valuable asset owned by Barcelona, what Barcelona did by moving quickly to extend Gavi's contract until 2026 was very precise. Because Gavi's excellent performance with Barcelona made Liverpool interested in signing Gavi. Seeing that there was interest from other teams, Barcelona immediately extended Gavi's contract, now Gavi is under contract with Barcelona until 2026. Gavi in his new contract with Barcelona was given a salary increase too, so that Gavi did not think about moving to another club. Knowing that Gavi has extended his contract with Barcelona, this must have made Liverpool who had been eyeing Gavi disappointed. This means that Liverpool have to look for other alternative players, because if they are forced to buy Gavi, Gavi's release clause value is very high. Gavi's performance for Barcelona have been superb and at the young age of 18 he is already catching the eyes of the world, I can boldly say that he has a lot of potential and with the right environment and management he will grow to be one of the best attacking midfielders in the world. Barcelona have a gem in their hands and shouldn't lose him as he will grow to be an important player for Barcelona in the future. |

Arsenal started the season quite well. This is very different from what happened last season, even Arteta's position was on the brink at the time. Now Arteta has the main task to keep the consistency of his men so that they get a good achievement this season, but I don't think it will be an easy job because every team will definitely be haunted by player injury problems and the possibility of internal problems. If Arsenal can cope with it all, at least they will be able to stay in the top 4.
Arsenal management is not as cruel as other teams who will immediately fire the coach if the team gets bad results in a row, just like Wenger before I think Arteta position has been quite safe because of the great trust of management in Arteta, we admit that consistency is still a classic problem that every season hit and as a fan, I'm a little pessimistic if we will last long enough at the top of the current table, the inconsistent play and also the lack of qualified reserves are the reasons I doubt Arsenal can can stay at the top of the standings even though we have played quite well so far, but even so, I hope Arteta can find solutions and also the right strategy in the face of a hectic schedule like now,especially in dealing with the shortage of the defensive midfield sector. Arsenal management are considerate and more understanding and patient when it comes to cutting ties with coaches, in Wenger's time when the club was in a really bad shape and everyone thought Wenger will be fired immediately it didn't happen that way instead he was giving enough time to try and get the team together and back in shape, same scenerio with Arteta, it wasn't so good for Arteta in his first 6months joining the club but he was giving time to work with the team even when he was also getting bad results he still had the trust and support of the management which as a result gave him time to understand the team and transform the team to a better state. |

The only legal risk here is that CBN do not tolerate bitcoin p2p transactions. Knowing how the POS business in Nigeria works, I don’t think it’s going to be a profitable venture. The major reason why customers patronize pos shops is for convenience and quick service compared to using ATMs. I believe your staff doesn’t have access to your wallet, only you do. So they have to contact you somehow to confirm the transaction. 35 minutes is a long time to spend trying to withdraw money at a POS centre. You could teach your staff how to use blockchain explorers to check the status of a transaction. Another thing you have to consider is the volatility of bitcoin, pos business is a small scale business, the capital is usually around 300-500$ I don’t think such business is ripe enough to adopt bitcoin yet.

Erling Haaland, the Ronaldo & Messi replacement. Maybe each of us can imagine the new Ballon d'Or nomination and if Haaland continues and he will successful in the Premier League and Champions League, he will win this. There is only one who stands in his way and that is Lewandoski. But Haaland is over 10 years younger and hopefully he will get better from year to year. Now 6 Matches an 10 goals, ohyes.
Erling Haaland is already dubbed the new Christiano Ronaldo for his pace, height and ability to score many goals, just 6 weeks into the league and Haaland has ten goals already, Manchester City spent a lot of money to acquire the signature of Haaland, It will be difficult to compete with a player like Haaland for the league's top scorer and it will be no surprise to see Haaland winning the Champions league with Manchester City. |

Sadio Mane was a key player in the Liverpool team and his absence have left a major gap that even the new replacement have not been able to fill in. I bet they are suffering the kick back of their decision made in the summer window. Mane was always there in tough games like this and always had his ways of getting the goals out of the blue and now they lack that kind of player that will always put in that extra effort and pull them through.

Kante has been injured for a month. Chelsea will be curious about how strong he will be able to play from now on. If this injury affects his performance badly then Chelsea might not think of extending his contract. Kante has always been an important part of this team so far. However they can find a solid alternative to him too in the end. Kante will need to convince them not to do so by his effort. Normally I don't doubt him but this injury period has been quite long. Let's see what he can do after his return on September 15.
Kante is a very good player, I mean his contributions in the team day in and day out has been marvelous, what baffles me most is his work rate, like Kante is like the engine box of the the midfield. I believe his presence is greatly missed and so far the available option - Jorginho have not been good enough and reliable so they will be looking to get a replacement probably in January to fill in for Kante. |

How long laliga have been started? if that was almost at the end of la liga and you can sure about that but it's only a few match since la liga has begun. that means if the chance for benzema to compete with lewandowski will always there.
There are so many matches remaining for both of team. The real competition will be started during mid until the end of la liga. Im not feeling doubt about this too. I think that you shall not underestimate benzema. He has a big chance to be the same as lewandowski. In my opinion if this case is not only about the personality.
It's only 5 weeks and there's 33 weeks more, the difference between Benzema and Lewandowski goals are just 3 goals, so there's a high chance Benzema might overtake Lewandowski in the future. If Benzema really want to become the top scorers, it's hard for him since he need to fight with his teammates e.g. Vinicius and Rodrygo. While Lewandowski is more easier since there's no other his teammates can compete against him. That is very true, the fight for the golden boot will be tougher for Karim Benzema because at Real Madrid there is more competition amongst his team mates when it comes to scoring goals. Vinicius and Rodrygo are also contenders in the race so the focus on who to score goals for Real Madrid is been shared amongst these three while at Barcelona, Lewandowski has bigger chances of winning the golden boot because he is the key player for scoring goals in the team and when they attack he is the centre man who all passes are targeted to. |

Bitcoin Class in the Church 14th August, 2o22. (Christian Youth in the Digital World)
Agbe, I think you should be dubbed the Bitcoin Evangelist  . The name would fit you well. You are taking the bitcoin "gospel" from the classroom, to the church. I am truly impressed. I won't be surprised if your next topic is "Bitcoin Class in the Market". It seems you have been anointed by Satoshi. Lol, your right about that. Agbe is doing so much for someone that joined up barely a year ago. His taken on the mandate to create awareness for his local community and that's an impact that wnt reflect just on the community but in a way, would also come back to him to have shared some light on what could be a deal breaker for the locals. On the other hand, I would also warn that, this would also create some unnecessary attention and so, you at OP should exercise caution. Not all would mean well as they see the growth and changes in your life. Do well to take care of yourself. This era of bitcointalk newbies are very passionate about bitcoin though OP is close to Hero member rank I still remember when he came into the forum and it feels like yesterday, it’s a joy to see genuine people in the crypto space. In such a short time, Agbe has done for much in real life to educate his community about bitcoin. His love for bitcoin is inspiring, and I believe will have a ripple effect throughout the community. |

My crypto experience has been great, I am fortunate to be aware of the scam tactics in the crypto space. My worst moment would be not selling my bitcoin when the price was close to $60k in 2021. I was infatuated with with wall observer thread and bitcoin reaching 100k$ that I hodl. Worse decision ever! I could have sold then and bought the dip making huge profits.

Aside from the time frame not corresponding. What’s is most surprising is that the OP claims he still has his username and password to the site where he played videos games with those people, why come to bitcoin talk to find them when you can login to the site you met your pals and leave a message? I don’t buy this story, whatever OP true intention will be revealed in his next posts, this was the case of the user digitalmonk.

The old adage “never put all your eggs in one basket “ applies. The same can be said to those who think signature campaigns are enough reason to quit their 9-5 job. I’m digressing here but I have to say this generation is fixated on idea of passive income, getting paid for doing next to nothing. Live-streaming has become a lucrative business, kids now sit in their room all day playing video games and the world rewards them for it. OP depended on his mother for 3 years after quitting his job because he believed his bitcoin investments would be life changing in a few years. What if the bull took longer than 3 years, could you have been able to hodl for five years without a job? M worry is more often we see such success stories and it sort of sets a template for beginners who want this kind of sucesss.

I think a huge amount of people in the crypto space jump into crypto investments without any prior understanding of crypto. They follow a simple strategy which worked for people they know or see on the internet or sometimes maybe even themselves. The strategy is easy, join as many signal groups as you can, follow crypto twitter and crypto influencers pages, take investment advice from people who claim to have made millions off crypto and simply do as they say no questions asked.

Manchester City's form this season has being outstanding, I don't see any real competitors in the premier league for Pep and his squad. Liverpool is not the same team they were last season, they are unbalanced and will not be able to compete at the level of Manchester City. Manchester United, Arsenal and Spurs are no better, I'm certain it will take a miracle or some sort of marvelous performance to beat Manchester City. Even in games that looked unfavorable, they still came back into the game and defeated their opponent not to mention now that they look even more balanced, it will really be difficult to beat them.

Like upgrade00 I think the numbers don’t add up. I personally think it is extreme to quit your job to invest in crypto unless you have a trust fund locked somewhere or some insurance that’s going to guarantee you won’t end up homeless. Hodling for three years and the same time not having a job is unbelievable, how did you make ends meet? This is a beautiful story of how bitcoin can change one’s financial status but let’s keep it real, bitcoin is a volatile investment, I wouldn’t advise anyone to quit a stable job to invest in bitcoin because truth be told you can have both.

You made an excellent observation, one that is overlooked or should I say ignored in crypto communities. This is a common character found in people who started investing in bitcoin recently, most FOMO and invest more than they can afford in crypto because they sincerely believe “it is a smarter choice than keeping money in the bank”. This is a result of how they have been introduced to bitcoin and crypto in general. They joined the crypto space believing its the newest and fastest way of becoming a millionaire. When you have that mindset at the back of your head, it is easy to throw in all your money in a crypto project just because Elon Musk tweeted about it. The fear of missing out on the next big crypto project that’s going to do x500 in days keeps these guys hooked in.

Although I'm not so comfortable with the postponement because I won't be able to watch the premier league and watch my team play but looking at the brighter side it is good too as the break will give exhausted teams time to regroup and regain strength while other who are under performing will have a little space to plan and come back stronger which will make the league even more interesting and competitive when the games resume.
As a Tottenham Hotspur fan, I just felt this is not the right time to play Manchester city, yea Is true both Tottenham and Manchester city are unbeaten this season so far but I think city is more inform than spurs and I believe if the match had gone on, Manchester city would have won because they are more on form with haaland scoring for fun right now and Tottenham look like a team that has been lucky not to have lose this season, in their last four games now they have had an awful first half and later come in the second half and win with an odd scoreline,if they had play against a team of Manchester city standard they won't be lucky in those bad first half performance. Lol that is why the premier league is the most competitive league in the world of football, you play whichever opponent you are scheduled to play when the time comes. Tottenham have this attitude of defeating big teams in the league, last season they did the same, I think they also defeated City twice last season if I'm correct so they should probably be used to Guardiola's style of play and it shouldn't be any different this time. It will be a tough game nonetheless. |

There are lot of factors involved behind high price of Antony. First of all, Ajax lost lot of crucial players in the transfer window and they didn't wanted to lose another crucial player especially one from the attack line. Secondly, United wanted this player and they had to make an irresistible bid to make this move happen. Yeah 100m is a lot but they needed the player especially when there isn't any strong player in the right wing position except for Elanga. Greenwood was their strongest player but he is suspended by the club so naturally they wanted someone strong and talented and so they got Antony.
Greenwood now doesn't seem to be able to be included in the discussion about MU's development because of the case he did and in this case MU must move quickly and actually, regardless of the price, Antony is one of the players to be reckoned with. United know their capacity and where they lack it so a price like that doesn't matter as long as their form goes up and now it looks like the fans don't feel like Manchester United are at a disadvantage after Antony's arrival at OId Trafford. For a while I have not heard or read anything on Mason Greenwood, I don't know how far his case has gone and if their are hopes of him wearing the red devil's jersey again. I can't wait for this whole saga to go down and see him back on the pitch again becuse I really miss the lad, fine player who was dubbed the new Van Persie. Manchester united seem to be moving on already with Anthony at the moment but I have faith in Greenwood to return and fight for his position. |

Karius was not a bad goal keeper in Liverpool, what I discovered is that he isn't a big game keeper. Whenever I see the name Karius I'll remember champions league finals between Liverpool and Real Madrid, Karius was nothing less that disappotment in that match. But he could do well in Epl. This will mean that he got another opportunity to provr himself in Newcastle, what I don't know is if he is still young to handle the goal post, I don't know his age. Age is always not a problem for goal keeper as they can be in the post till their early 40s, Oliver Can, Van dar sar and Bufon did well even at their old age.
Congratulations to Newcastle, you will be a great club but not definitely this season.
Yes, Karius wasn't a bad goal keeper after all, he just wasn't lucky in terms of getting playing time and being able to outshine Allison and going up the pecking order in his stay at Anfield especially after that disappointing show in the champions league final to Real madrid i think that was the game that sealed his spot on the bench lol. Hopefully he can come back stronger when he moves to Newcastle and get a chance to show his quality and revive his reputation. |

Graham Potter has a strategy and formation similar to Tuchel we can say that Graham Potter will continue what Tuchel is doing
It's just in a different approach to the player and Brighton can do the same thing looking for coaches in the same style because they are suitable to apply the strategy.
but I feel a little sorry for the Brighton team. because they are actually in good shape. they even seem to be suitable to be trained by Graham Potter. When the Brighton team was in good form, they had to be abandoned by a coach who really suited their style of play. But Graham Potter seemed very happy to accept the offer and signed a 5-year contract to coach Chelsea. but I'm thinking of something a little crazy here. i.e. It will be very exciting if Tuchel turns out to be Brighton's coach. I think it will be the best selling drama in premier league news Just when Brighton were starting to get the rythm to play and perform well week in and week out they now have to lose the coach who seemed to understand the system, the players and knew how well to manage and bring out the best in the players, sadly,it almost feels like starting all over again but honestly Thomas Tuchel going the opposite side to coach Brighton wouldn't be a bad idea after all, it could be a turning point and an extra boost for Brighton to another level. |

Napoli Is very lucky that they got full points in this match and stay in the first position on the points table. Though this is a very narrow win, but Napoli's players try their best to score. But due to the strong defence of Spezia, despite many attacks, Napoli was unable to score.
Napoli has topped the points table since the start of the season. Napoli was at the top of the points table for a long time in the previous season as well. But gradually they lost points and dropped to third place in the table. If Napoli wants to win the title this season, they will definitely need to maintain the consistency of their performances.
I think Napoli plays better than Juventus in the Seria A, they turn out to be unlucky when it comes to finishing the league at the number 1 position but in terms of playing style I prefer Napoli to Juventus. They have started the season in fine form this time and outting all effort to maintain the top spot, I am just hopeful that they can maintain this form and stay consistent until the end, I love to see them win the league this season. |
