Benzema keep priority as regular player for Real Madrid although he ages old and become senior player, I think he has incredible performance last season with top scorer not only La Liga but also on UEFA Champion League give credit points for him become priority central forward for next season. I think not only success with top scorer in La Liga but also Karim Benzema keep dominance on top assist standing were he made 12 assist. Looks not worry for Madrid fans with left chance to get Mbappe because Karim Benzema still enough I think not only for scoring goals but also he can create assist.
One of the factors in the increasing performance of Benzema at an increasingly old age is because the trust that Ancelotti has given to him is very high. Benzema is considered as one of the important players for Real Madrid, he managed to repay the trust given by the coach perfectly. In addition to successfully bringing Real Madrid to La Liga and Champions League titles, Benzema is also the top scorer in the two competitions.

Benzema has just had a special season, the Real Madrid striker won the Golden Boot in the Champions League for the first time in his career. He will continue to do his best in the next season, although Real Madrid managed to bring in a new striker in the summer transfer window, nothing has changed for him because he has grown better and better.

I know a lot of people are saying right now that they have predicted Benzema playing well this season and so on and so forth. But I honestly don’t think anyone expected this type of performance from him.

Benzema is old and I don’t think anyone actually expected him to perform like this. He has performed well because of his hard work and the trust that the club put in him. The most important thing is that he believed in himself. He performed really well and he is surely the best contender for the Ballon d’Or as well. But I highly doubt that we are going to see the same thing from him next season.

It is the decision of Dortmund management to make money by selling the star players it has, so it seems difficult to change this tradition.
Therefore, it is not surprising that in the end Dortmund struggled to win trophies, because almost every season they sell their star players.
This has been one of the most reason they usually finds it difficult to achieve trophy, and probably end seasons without trophy. The last time they probably won the Bundesliga title was in the year 2011, and . Therefore, the management have to understand that selling out majority of their star players is really affecting the club performance.
They have to change their tradition, if only they want to start winning trophies.
The tradition shows that Dortmund has no target to win trophies and also, this Dortmund team is like an academy where star players grow up to make profit for the club not for achievement. Because if Dortmund is serious about winning the title then every star player they have will certainly not be sold, because a team that is serious about winning trophies then they will keep these players and provide many benefits and one of them is about increasing salaries, but unfortunately Dortmund don't apply that.

I think we all know what Dortmund does and we also know very well that they do it well enough and that’s why even though they are just here to make a profit they are still doing quite well. It is obviously not understandable to a lot of people. Even I don’t understand why they do it because without trophies what’s the point?

But as they are doing quite well and they don’t have any complaints about not winning any trophies I don’t think we should have too many complaints either. I think they could do better but they don’t want to.
1803  Other / Politics & Society / Re: War will be over soon on: July 02, 2022, 04:47:05 PM
I beg to differ, the war isn't showing any signs of a possible ending anytime soon. Russian forces are making slow but steady advancements, while the bombing hasn't stopped. On the other hand, Covid-19 cases are spiking once again, it might not cause severe illness anymore, but it's definitely not over yet. Thus, we still have a long way ahead of us, and with inflation constantly increasing, it'll be a difficult winter.

Yes, there is no sign that the war will end any time soon, even the negotiations are still not on either side. Russia doesn't seem to want to end the war anytime soon, they don't rush but slowly. Maybe their target is Europe rather than Ukraine. The longer the war dragged on, neither side benefited, but also caused heavy damage to the countries that supported Ukraine. Now is the energy war, the economic war of both Russia and the EU.

Both. As a way to diversify my portfolio and reduce my investment risk, I would decide to buy both.  Gold is a physical asset and it existed centuries before bitcoin was born, now gold is seen as a safe haven for times of inflation and Bitcoin will be more suitable for our long-term investments. Just buy and hold for the next 5 years, bitcoin will help us avoid inflation and asset value will increase significantly.

Nayeeb has proven himself to be a real friend of bitcoin. The guy tied his country’s future to bitcoin which takes lots of courage. He indeed believes in the tech and he is not just words. He is putting his (and his countrymen’s) money where his mouth is. A true bitcoin defender and a holder. History will write songs about this man.

As the president of a country and with bitcoin, he knows well that bitcoin is a risky investment because of its volatility but he still puts all his faith in bitcoin. He is a true friend with bitcoin.

He ignores all warnings and chooses bitcoin as legal tender, currently investments have not yielded the desired results but he continues to believe in bitcoin and continues to buy when the price is falling quite a bit deep. This man deserves our admiration and respect, just wait for the bulls to return, he will be honored and get the rewards he deserves.
1806  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: July 02, 2022, 02:09:14 PM
ODI eh? I don't remember when was the last time i watched the ODI, may be last WC idk. I didn't even looked at the tally once and only got to know about that when you mentioned this thingy sometime back. Anyway it's good to see that smaller boards are also getting bilateral series, we need more of that as it's still not enough, specially from PIG-3.
I have the same opinion. Bilateral series is only for hardcore fans. People like me prefer either ICC tournaments, or triangular/quadrangular series involving multiple teams, but these type of tournaments are no longer being organized by the cricket boards. In fact, I forget when for the last time I heard about a triangular series. Previously such tournaments used to be hosted by cities such as Sharjah, Singapore and Toronto. But everything came to a halt because of the packed international calendar.

I agree with you. The tri-series tend to be very exciting and enjoyable. But now the countries are not interested in hosting the tri-nation series. Perhaps because they have a busy schedule, or maybe the tri-series is less profitable for the board. But as a general spectator, the tri-series is very enjoyable. I remember later, we used to watch the Asia Cup. It was very exciting. But after 2018, Asia Cup was not held.

It’s the trader’s expectations that make them take the wrong steps. Cryptocurrencies can get you profits only if you understand them and their movements. But if you start gambling for no reason, you will end up making losses and that’s what is wrong.

Yes, cryptocurrency is volatile and too risky so we shouldn't put all our expectations and money on it, it's nothing more than a gamble.
Cryptocurrencies, like other investments, can be risky, but they also generate returns

In the world of investment, if you study hard, research the market and have the necessary knowledge about the market, know how the market works, you will be a winner but if you just rush in and expect miracles to work for you, you will fail.
1808  Economy / Economics / Re: Current war and banks rate hikes correlation on: July 01, 2022, 04:36:28 AM

Current war might be stop and russia ukraine will go pause or maybe make peace agreement.
When money supply stops there is no money for war.


This is something that everyone in the world wants to happen immediately. But how to stop this war, I see no sign that either side is willing to negotiate to end this futile battle. Tensions escalate as Nato is trying to cut off Russia's oil revenue so that Russia can no longer fund the war, but that doesn't seem to affect Russia, Ukraine won't have any deal because they are fighting to protect their country, their citizens.
Inflation will continue to rise and the Fed is poised to raise interest rates higher.
1809  Economy / Economics / Re: UK inflation hits new high of 9.1% as food and energy price surge persists on: July 01, 2022, 04:25:24 AM
It seems that Russian cut off from the gas and other exports are affecting the European countries slowly. I mean with the time every country slowly publishing that they are suffering from inflation. Most of the increased cost is from vegetables and energy resources ultimately affecting the whole nations foreplay. There is no news from Asian countries where Russia has built up good relationship with and continue to import and export like regular days. I think the only factor that’s affecting is current on going war.

Europe is largely dependent on Russian gas so it's not surprising that the country has been hit hard, but other countries are also struggling, poorer countries as the world's energy resources are disturbed. Commodities race to increase prices, causing the lives of millions of families to come to a standstill. Inflation will not end any time soon if wars and epidemics continue to rage and we will have to continue to weather the price storm caused by war.

I was really scandalized to see that management of PSG wants to kick out Neymar at every cost. In some part I've read that they will spend something like 200 m € to kick him out, and I would like to understand why
because neymar is absolutely a good player, and with Mbappe could do great things for the next years. I've already heard something about his discpline but I don't think that it will be decisive for letting him stay or not.
In the photo collection for a new season, Neymar is still in and it is a signal that PSG will not sell Neymar, at least in a new season. Maybe they want to try another season with the trio attackers, Messi, Mbappe and Neymar. If they fail to win Champions League again, Neymar will be replaced soon. Messi might not sign a new contracf with PSG and Barcelona will still be one of best destinations for Messi if he leaves Paris.

Since PSG's contract with Messi until 2023. And so I think PSG management wants to rely on the Messi-Neymar-Mbappe trio for another season. Because we have seen the performances of Messi and Neymar Duo. They performed exceptionally well together. Neymar missed many important matches due to his injury in the previous season. If Neymar does not suffer a major injury next season, we will see better gameplay from the Messi-Neymar and Mbappe trio.
1811  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 30, 2022, 04:32:20 PM
The return of Romelu Lukaku to Inter is a very interesting development. They are renting the football player -they sold for 113 million Euros 1 year ago- for only 8 million Euros for 1 year. Smiley This should be considered a great transfer success for Inter...
On the other hand, unfortunately I cannot say the same for Chelsea. They made the wrong decisions about Romelu Lukaku from the very beginning. They sold him for cheap when he was a young football player, and now they took him back at exorbitant prices as he was nearing the end of his career. I think this is a really big mistake...

Chelsea management's decision regarding Lukaku was wrong. Chelsea management was not far-sighted. If they hadn't sold the young Lukaku, Lukaku could have become Chelsea's star player. But Chelsea management decided to sell Lukaku. And later they took Lukaku to the team again, wasting a lot of money. But 29-year-old Lukaku could not adapt to the Chelsea team. They have wasted so much money because Chelsea management is not far-sighted.
1812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 30, 2022, 04:32:13 PM
I think not important about some player less respect with honoring the contract depending club get profitable business by selling them, in this cases we know how potential Robert Lewandowski right now and golden chance for Bayern sell him and earn much money. But if keep believing and respect with honoring the contract I think Bayern less opportunity to sell Lewandowski and not earn money any more. Right now how much bid values asking by Barcelona is not matter trough Bayern Munich still earn money and actually 30 million euro still profitable for Bayern Munich and they can use for getting young player.
We are shown what I call the "drama" between Lewandowski, Bayern Munich and Barcelona. Yes, this news has become interesting news to listen to, how hard the efforts of Barcelona who want to bring in Lewandowski, and also Bayern Munich who are still holding back and there is no certainty from this player. And I heard that Bayern officials made a statement that players must honor contracts. Isn't that a sign that Bayern want to keep Lewandowski? But on the other hand Bayern want a high price for a Lewandowski.
There has not been an agreement because Bayern Munich are reluctant to let the player go, that's why Bayern Munich set a high price for Lewandowski. To bring Lewandowski to Camp Nou, Barcelona had to let go of some of its star players to reduce the burden on the club because of poor financial conditions. Barcelona must be able to control the economy for the sake of the balance of the club, selling De Jong or Pedri can be done as an option to expedite the Lewandowski transfer process.
Barcelona's offer of 40 million euros has not been accepted by Bayern Munich because it is considered too low, even though Lewandowski has openly wanted to leave Bayern Munich.

This matter has been going on for a long time and I will surely like to wait for the official announcement instead of just spitballing. First of all, I think this is going to be the last offer from Barcelona and secondly, I think Bayern Munich is going to still want 50 million for this player. So, if Bayern Munich does not sell this player now for what they are offered they will be missing out on a lot of money. Any other club is going to give Bayern Munich probably close to half of what Barcelona is offering them.
1813  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How I started Bitcoin investing on: June 30, 2022, 04:23:37 AM
It is a fact that I find quite coincidental that most of us who are entering the market, holding bitcoins know bitcoin and very few people accept to learn bitcoin when it is first introduced. Most of us start to learn and invest in it when someone mentions it a second, a third time.

Whether you learn about bitcoin through social media, advertising, or from friends, we owe them a big thank you. Maybe not everyone succeeds in this market but thank you all for giving us the opportunity to know about bitcoin, for me a wonderful thing that cannot be expressed in words, it frees me from the bondage of fiat and privacy is what I seek.

Bitcoin is for everyone and no one has the right to ban who joins and who shouldn't, everyone can as long as they like. But I have a question here, like deaf people, they can use bitcoins but blind people can't use smratphones, is there any way to help them access bitcoins and use bitcoins?.

I support this option, it can be a useful solution to help people who are less able to earn an income outside for some reason, but we also need to let them know about the unpredictable fluctuations of the market, to avoid unfortunate risks.

Today, war is no longer only a gun but also a battle of the internet of social networks. You will gain an advantage over your competitors if you control the internet and the traditions of your opponents. 

All communication and support activities from outside are through the internet if there is no internet, The war will be over if Russia controls the internet in its entirety.
1816  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where will Bitcoin stabalize?? on: June 29, 2022, 02:53:42 PM
There have been different events pouring in and a lot of people are jittery that bitcoin winter is setting in.
The fall of celsius, though it rebound back is another chip down
Many crypto exchanges are laying off employees.
Yet many well read people like American billionaire businessman David Rubenstein said that crypto would not go anywhere despite the ongoing market correction.

How long will this market correction will continue and where will this stop.. and where will Bitcoin stabalize
In the meantime we’re in the crypto winter. The result of several events, it may be too long for me. Celsius, Terra Luna has called for crypto winter during this time. Now it is on going, it's not easy to get rid of form here. Many people think that the global situation is not good. There is also the possibility of Russia-Ukraine war longer. So bitcoin may be stabilized in 20k until the winter is gone.

And now that it's the collapse of 3AC, I don't think the market will stabalize anytime soon with the current series of incidents. In addition, the inflation situation has not improved, so the Fed will definitely approve a rate hike. There will not be a stabilization of Bitcoin anytime soon, but it will continue to fall at its current price. I predict bitcoin will not be able to stabilize before the end of the year, this sharp volatility will last until the end year.

The source is showing that Monaco and Milan are in a serious race to sign Torino striker Andrea Belotti. He has played for Torino for seven seasons so far and it is finally time he left the team. His contract is ending in a few days so it is going to be a free transfer for the team to sign him. I think that Belotti would be more eager to stay in Italy after playing here for long years. He is 28 years old now and maybe he isn't looking for a new experience in a different league now. If this is the case then Milan would have a big advantage to sign him.
I don't think, Milan managements will sign in Torino because they have potential strikers that demonstrated well than Torino which they will prefer to bring in new talented midfielders. Milan are really lacking in the areas of defense and midfield which their coach is planning to improve their defenders and midfielders so that they will be able to perform better in next season. I believe Monaco will have more interest on Torino against next season because their performance was very poor which they need to improve in next season with talented strikers.

Milan honestly has a lot of problems, I don’t think the problems are specifically in defense and midfield. I think the problems are almost everywhere. Even though a lot of people don’t think that they have problems in the attacking I think they actually have problems in there also.

Ibrahimovic why is a big part of their attacking lineup in the last season, he did perform well enough for Milan. But I really doubt that he is going to perform well enough in the next season also. My concern is that almost all the other competitor in Milan seems to be really active in the transfer market. And here we have Millan having only some links with some players and nothing really concrete.
1818  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 27, 2022, 06:05:30 PM
Ousmane Dembele's transfer saga is really becoming too much. Apparently, Barcelona are confident again that he will sign the extension.
Considering his demands - there probably isn't much interest from elsewhere.
Barcelona needs him to stay after Leeds survived the drop and Raphinha became a bit out of their reach.
It's funny because there are other football journos who are reporting that Arsenal have given up their pursuit of Raphinha because it seems that he already his eyes set in a move to Barcelona.  :/  So which is which?  Cheesy

And between Arsenal and Barca, I feel like Raphinha could be better off at Barca under Xavi.
The books lined him going to London with the Gunners tho.
https://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/raphinha/club-after-summer-transfer-window

Honestly, in my opinion, both Raphina and Dembele has going to be better off in Barcelona. I think right now Dembele can be a better option Compared to Raphina. Dembele in the right-winger position is going to be lethal for Barcelona. And the way Xavi likes to play I think Dembele actually will be able to do better in Barcelona. But a lot of people are going to have different opinions about this because If I remember correctly Raphinha actually played with the Barcelona a long time ago and he will know how to play under the current coach, but I think with Dembele Barcelona will have a lot more versatility.
1819  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: June 27, 2022, 01:01:16 PM
But at least Benzema will compete with his former partner, Cristiano Ronaldo. There are even names like, Lionel Messi, and Robert Lewandowski. Despite Real Madrid's achievements this season, the question is whether Benzema is better than the three stars above?
I predict it might be difficult for Benzema to be number 1 to win the Ballon d'Or title previously held by Lionel Messi, but maybe consider 2 or 3 positions.
they are different players, you cannot pay them this way
they also have different characters, CR7 does not have the same character as Messi and therefore the people you have to put next to him are different
let's say that managing the champions is not easy, look at what Messi is doing in PSG .. nothing or almost nothing, because he does not feel at ease in my opinion

If we just think about the performance from the last season, I think Karim Benzema is going to be the one leading. At least that will be the case if we compare Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi. I don’t think the performance of Lionel Messi was good at all in PSG.

Cristiano Ronaldo did perform really well but his team did not help him. As a result, it was a really bad performance from his team but the solo performance of Cristiano Ronaldo was good. And I don’t think there is anything good to say about Lionel Messi because he has not done anything really great worth mentioning in the last season. So, in my opinion, Karim Benzema has performed better if we think about the last season only.
1820  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about altcoin market on: June 27, 2022, 02:33:53 AM
Almost all altcoins depend on the movement of bitcoin. Therefore, if you can predict whether bitcoin will go up or down, then altcoins will follow that trend, but which is something that is hard to predict.

About DOT I think it is a very potential altcoin, 7$ may not be the last bottom of DOT but can buy from now on, we will never know where the bottom will be but we can buy with price near bottom.
