Arda is joining Real Madrid this season. He is not going to join in 2024. That means he is going to go to Real Madrid. Everything is official now. Will be interesting to see how this prodigy works out for Real Madrid. I am also happy that he was actually going to Real Madrid instead of Barcelona, because in Barcelona, the future is not very safe right now. And this is going to give the midfield of Real Madrid, new life and also a fast pace.
Arda Güler will come into limelight sooner than we expected because he's expected to join Real Madrid immediately, and not in 2024. Arda Güler joins Real Madrid on a long-term contract from Fenerbahçe, which runs until June 2029. It's an advantageous deal for the 2005 Turkish player; let's permit him some time to adjust to the Spanish football style. I totally understand what Carlo Ancelotti hopes the new addition will become in the near future. Arda Güler is an advantageous player for Los Blancos, signing him reminds me of when they recruited Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, they all started little but look at them now, they're the pillars in Real Madrid's frontlines. Real Madrid is a club which always gives a lot more importance to the young talent instead of the old experience. When I saw that Real Madrid is continuing with rather an old generation I was actually a little surprised. But now I think Real Madrid has returned to the plan that they always seem to follow. Real Madrid has done a great job by bringing him into the team. He is going to be a great asset for Real Madrid one day. As you said just like vini junior and Rodrygo, he will probably be a great player in the midfield area for Real Madrid.

It looks like the Mourinho era continues for Roma. As you know there were some rumours like PSG could make an offer to him. Mourinho even talked to the board and said that he would inform them about it right away. But he was just among the candidates for PSG of course. In the end we have seen PSG signing a 2-year deal with Luis Enrique. After that a Saudi Arabian team made an enormous offer to Mourinho - 120 million euros for 2 years. But he turned it down as well.
That offer is really unbelievable but it looks like Mourinho is still hungry for success in European football. He still wants to be a part of Roma project now.
Roma played very well in the last two seasons under Mourinho. I would say Mourinho is quite successful with the Roma team. If PSG wanted Mourinho to coach their club, we might have seen Mourinho in Paris. But PSG chose Enrique as the coach of the team. And so Mourinho is more likely to be seen as the coach of Roma in the next season as well. Mourinho could have made the Roma team stronger if the Roma management had provided Mourinho with enough funds to buy players. But since Roma management won't spend much money, I don't think Roma will perform outstanding next season. Roma's performance will be average. @emrecemsan, A good decision taken by Roma. It is better to keep the coach that is already managing the squad to actually maximize the potential of the squad. Roma found good results in the last season and I hope they will be able to find better results in the next season with José Mourinho. He will also be able to shape the squad like he wants. I already knew that this was going to be an offer for Mourinho from Roma. At least they're trying to keep him.

Actually he had a release clause of 17.5 million euros. But after Barcelona's entering the race first they must have wanted to increase the offer to be more attracting. 30 million euros with add-ons is a good deal but it is still a really cheap signing for Real Madrid. They must be quite contented with having a young star for a price like this. The reason why Arda chose Real Madrid over Barcelona was the departure time. As far as I know Barcelona wanted to have him by 2024 but Arda wanted to leave this summer. Real Madrid guaranteed that to him so he chose them. Both options were incredible for him of course. To be honest it wouldn't have been bad if he had played another season in the turkish league (and UEL) to gain experience. At 18 and with almost exclusively turkish league experience, he could fail in La Liga and especially under the pressure under Real Madrid. He's definitely talented, but you also need a strong character and be able to handle all the pressure. Arda is joining Real Madrid this season. He is not going to join in 2024. That means he is going to go to Real Madrid. Everything is official now. Will be interesting to see how this prodigy works out for Real Madrid. I am also happy that he was actually going to Real Madrid instead of Barcelona, because in Barcelona, the future is not very safe right now. And this is going to give the midfield of Real Madrid, new life and also a fast pace.

England got a fine start by taking 4 wickets and the scorecard still dealing with 2 digits. They should seize the moment and go for the kill, which they didn't do in previous matches. Aussie desperately needs a good partnership, not sure how did Marsh get into this mix? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) England have got good start as they were able to pick the top order wickets within 100 runs. If they continue to do the same match would come into their hands, but here things have changed as Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head have stood wicket and reached their 50 runs partnership as score have reached 136/4. England need to break partnership at the earliest, if not we can expect them to lead the innings. After the break, Australia was absolutely miserable. We saw Australia losing the fifth wicket at the 240 score. After that Australia only was able to score 23 more. So basically Australia lost six wickets trying to get the last 23 runs. I don’t understand why no one else was not able to perform well on the same track where Mitchell Marsh was playing like one-day internationals. England started the innings and they also have lost two wickets for only 24 runs. This also happened in only six overs.

Apparently Frankfurt will lost their key player Randal Kolo Muani this summer because some of big teams such as PSG or Manchester United were interested to him but Kolo Muani himself hasn't give his respond yet about this rumours and actually Frankfurt want Kolo Muani to staying but Frankfurt will respect his decision if he wants to leave and apparently PSG very serious want to gets Kolo Muani they even will give their priority for Kolo Muani transfer because PSG really required new striker especially after Messi leave and Mbappe situation which is still uncertain
But for transfer fee Frankfurt want not less than 100 millions for him but Frankfurt seems already anticipating the loss of Kolo Muani that's why they were eyeing Montpelier player Elye Wahi and Elye Wahi is only 20 years old but he is already became an key player of Montpelier and last season he has impressive performance with scores 19 goals at Ligue 1 so i am not surprised why Frankfurt wants this player
Kolo Muani is a very good player and also a very important player for Frankfurt. So it is going to be sad for them to lose this player. But I understand that they are trying to do the right thing and let the player go. Instead of trying to hold onto the player who is trying to leave, they are trying to bring in another player in his place. And I think that is always the sensible thing to do. He is certainly not going to stay because he is being chased by a lot of big clubs. If Rezu can actually get more than 100 million followers transfer for them in my opinion. Wahi can be good for Frankfurt. But again there is always a risk involved with bringing in young and potential players. But Wahi is showing good signs. I think it can be a good decision. Worth taking a chance.

of the several players who left Dortmund for me, only Bellingham really made me feel a little disappointed with Dortmund why not keep a Bellingham who has pretty good talent during his career in the bundesliga. but anyway this is Dortmund's decision considering that this is like their business as long as it is very profitable it will always be done without thinking about any risks. and now Dortmund have got new players and some of these players are still young and I think it will be Dortmund's target again to make players more talented and then sell them. so in the summer it is unlikely that Dortmund will not have the same performance as last season and even my doubts about Dortmund not being able to qualify for the UCL.
Yes! I was surprised and disappointed at the same time when I have seen that Jude Bellingham is out of the Dortmund team, surely Borussia Dortmund doesn't really after the championship but the money in trading players instead, as you can see the future of Dortmund to become champion is on Jude Bellingham but they got him traded like that and surely if a team wants to get Jude Bellingham for sure they will give them Bellingham is exchanged with a huge sum, I haven't put the amount of free for certain players but Jude Bellingham's price was at a whopping €103.00m to the Real Madrid, while other players there are a free transfer, It does not matter how good the player is. If Dortmund is making a good profit they are going to sell the player for sure. And of course, Dortmund was making a really good profit by selling Jude Bellingham. I mean this has to be really good for business. Otherwise, there is no reason for them to keep doing this again and again. Of course, I know that he was sold for a huge amount of money. And that’s what Dortmund needs after all. Trophies. And they are also not going to change this approach Any time soon in my opinion. There was a time when I was really hopeful about Dortmund winning the Bundesliga title. But now I have absolutely forgotten about it. Because I know this is not happening.

There is no guarantee that Mbappe will join Real Madrid when his contract with PSG expires. Mbappe said he is interested in playing for Madrid. But even then he repeatedly renewed his contract with PSG. Because PSG has given him a lot of opportunities and freedom. And I think Mbappe will join Liverpool if Liverpool makes a better offer. Mbappe will go to whichever club offers him the best deal. Real Madrid will have to pay big if they really want to sign Mbappe.
Carlo Ancelotti would want the best for his club and would do anything within his power to achieve his goals for the season. We should not jump to conclusions; there is still time for Kylian Mbappe to make a decision about his future, which is uncertain at Parc des Princes. Liverpool and Real Madrid remained favorite to signed him, he's yet to give any club greenlight concerning his future, let's hope he males the right decisions unlike some footballers who made the wrong decision and have affected them till date, so what I'm saying in essence is for Kylian Mbappe to pick a more comfortable decision. I absolutely agree that there is no certainty that Mbappé is actually going to join Real Madrid. But at the same time, we have to agree that Real Madrid is going to be the best decision for him. But it will be better for Real Madrid if they do not keep hoping that he is going to join Real Madrid for sure. Because that might set up Real Madrid before failure. Real Madrid should not have expectations that he is certainly going to join. If he joins it is good, but if he does not, Real Madrid should not have too much problems. Real Madrid should take every caution that they should.

Yeah, stadiums are built by State Governments but at the same time, every year all the funding of State Boards comes from BCCI, not State Government. Overall i am not arguing about who maintains the stadium or built it/ownership for that matter, my whole point is every state board gets more than enough money but still spectator experience is not good due to their ignorance.
In general there is a " chalta hai" attitude all across India. Tickets are in short supply and demand is huge. Administrators (both from the BCCI and state/municipal governments) think that they are doing some sort of charity by allowing fans inside the stadiums. And level of corruption is just huge. At each and every level, commissions are involved. Food vendors and washroom maintenance contractors are selected on the basis of who can pay the maximum amount of bribes, and not based on their quality of work. Given this, you should not be surprised about the lack of quality. India has actually started to get so much money from cricket that they are probably thinking this is going to be enough. Just like you said “Chalta hai“. That is not going to be good enough for them. Especially when they know that inflation is becoming unreal in recent times. And they are thinking of the fans like they are superior from the fans. They should understand that the fans are the ones keeping cricket alive. They should take care of the people who are paying to buy the tickets. But the problem is as I said the superiority complex for the people in authority. It actually exists in every country. But I don’t think it exists anywhere like it does in India. And of course, when they are going to have the “chalta hai” attitude the quality is going to be hampered.

It must be really devastating for Portland to hear about this from Lillard. His last season performance was also incredible as he had an average of 32 points scored. But all this high effort was for nothing because Portland were still a mess as they couldn't even make it to the playoffs. Lillard still wanted to stay for many years here.
Well, that's what they get for not providing enough help for Lillard to at least experience to be in the NBA finals. They were too comfortable with Lillard being fine with them just because he said he'd love to stay in Portland at one time. But, not every player would stick around knowing that it becomes more and more hopeless for him every year to win a chip. So, I guess pulling up a LeBron-like decision would be what Lillard are most likely going to do. He can go to Miami and win ring and then come back to Portland and win another ring there lol. This was tweeted actually and he likes it. This is a prime example of. If you have a good player on the team, you should actually try to keep him happy end. Keep him in the team at all costs. Because at the moment he is even a little unhappy, he is in to have a lot of options. And I think we can agree that a player is most likely going to exercise his options. And I do not think anyone can actually playing the player for doing so. If a player is not finding success in this current team, he is going to try to find it somewhere else.

After being left by Benzema, Real Madrid have not found a suitable replacement, now there are rumors with several players like Kane or Mbappe, I'm sure one of them will be brought in, Real Madrid's failure in the UCL and La Liga last season certainly made them will improve more to be able to appear stronger in the next season.
As for the replacement for Benzema there is no news on which player Real Madrid will buy, but some news circulating in the media is that Kylian Mbappe is a priority that Real Madrid is trying to approach. Learn from last season and Real Madrid must really maximize the quality of the players they want to bring in because if you rely on existing players it will be difficult to compete in any competition next season. Kylian Mbappe is one of the players Perez most wants to replace Benzema, but so far no agreement has occurred between Real Madrid and PSG regarding the transfer of the player. Real Madrid need to move quickly to finalize the transfer of Kylian Mbappe as Liverpool are also interested in him. Last season was not in favor of Real Madrid, only the CDR trophy that they managed to bring home from the several competitions they played in. Real Madrid needs to immediately spend money to bring in players while there are still several quality players available in the transfer market, Harry Kane can also be used as an alternative if they fail to land Mbappe at the Santiago Bernabeu. Real Madrid does realize that they did not do very well the last season because they did not have a striker who was able to score freely. And I think they are not going to disregard that problem. They are actually going to acknowledge that and bringing a player who will be a suitable striker for them. But obviously, they cannot spend too much money on Mbappé because he's going to be a free agent next season. But at the same time, they will also have to perform well in this season otherwise there are going to be a lot of fingers being pointed at them. Nottingham is asking a lot of money for Harry Kane as well. Harry Kane is also going to be a free agent next season. So this is certainly a difficult choice for Real Madrid. Joselu is probably not going to be the main striker.

Sri Lanka is performing very well in the current season. In this case, Zimbabwe lost all the wickets in the beginning and could not stay on the field in any way. But I thought today's ground is famous for the bowling pitch but when Sri Lanka came out to bat Nishanka scored a century alone. But later I realized that Sri Lanka is very good in bowling and batting. However, seeing Sri Lanka's batting performance, all the spectators were impressed by Nishanka's batting performance alone. Will be selected as the best team in Sri Lanka this season.
This type of performance was kind of expected from Zimbabwe. Because after all Zimbabwe is nowhere near the level of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka has been really good in this tournament so far. It was going to be near impossible for Zimbabwe to actually win against Sri Lanka. The target that was posted by Zimbabwe was never going to be enough to actually beat Sri Lanka. I expected a better performance from Zimbabwe, because, as you said, this was a basically do or die match for them. And of course, Sri Lanka was more confident after watching that the target is a pretty moderate one for them.

evaluating an investment needs many factors, not only about profit, high return is high risk, and low return is safer. I don't believe some people don't like real estate, only people who don't have money to invest say they don't like it.
Deep inside, if they've got a money the first choice is going to be real estate. Trust me, many do like to own lands and rental properties but its main requirement is to have huge capital even if you'll mortgage it. The truth is always harsh and disheartening. But we need to be realistic that the people who always say they don't like investing in real estate and will only choose to invest in bitcoin are the ones who don't have a lot of money to invest in land. Because real estate investment is not easy like bitcoin, we have to have a lot of money to do it, and that's why the real estate market is only for people with a lot of money. I believe that the dream of owning real estate and a house is everyone's dream.

The future is always a question mark, and no one can predict anything. But looking at what bitcoin has achieved in the past and what it has brought to those who already believe in it, it's worth putting our faith in it. I have nothing to prove bitcoin will definitely succeed, but there is no success without trade-offs, so once we have chosen bitcoin, we need to be optimistic and have absolute confidence in our decision. That is my thought when investing in bitcoin, if we are not optimistic, not confident enough, we should not invest.

There was a Great Economic Depression in the world and it started from 1929 and ended in 1939 which stayed about 10 years and that was the longest one ever. In that great economic depression the world ecoonomy was dis-stabilized in all areas of life and livelyhood. Banks were closed down for the long period of years, farms were destroyed, industries closed down. Live was unbearable. People died and human suffer to the core. And everythings in life were affected no school and life became survival of the fittest. Now this technology age and must transactions are done online without going to the bank. Sometimes we buy things without going to the supermarket or to the market square you just order from online and you received your goods at your door post without stress. The present day ecoonomy is much more better comparing to that of 20s down. Things are make easy to use. Physical bank stress is also fading gradually to the hand of technology calls digital currency. And bitcoin is the Father and the King of this digitalization. So if ECONOMIC DEPRESSION happened again in the world, will it affect bitcoin with it fellow digital currencies? Because economy is the back bone of everything in the world. What affect economy affect all other things. And bitcoin is the father of digital currency. What is your say.
I mean this is basically what Bitcoin was designed for. Satoshi knew that one day all banks would probably fail due to hyperinflation of their worthless fiat currency system.... All I remember is hearing about how hard the great depression was from my grandma. She lived in Detroit at the time too, which was a rough city to live in during those times. I remember how she told me when she was like 8 and had to chaperone her 3 younger siblings from school to home like 3 miles away each day and then prepare food for all of them because her parents were working. Its wild times. If everyone goes into a state of depresson from a global economic collapse then surely Bitcoin would only go up and do much better simply due to supply and demand. People would naturally put their money into gold and silver, and now of course bitcoin, too. So I can definitely see Bitcoin doing well as a result of all this. Agreed, bitcoin was born to solve the problems that fiat is having, but for bitcoin to become everyone's choice if there is a big recession, it needs many factors. It's bitcoin's acceptance and legitimacy, I mean, if bitcoin's recognition doesn't achieve greater results, then it will be very difficult to become an inflation-resistant asset like gold. No matter how good bitcoin is, if it is not recognized by the public, it will never be an option when the Great Recession hits. As is happening, inflation and economic crisis are hitting us, but bitcoin is still not an option for many people, many are still choosing gold and other assets as a safe haven.

^^ BCCI might be rich and generate more than enough revenue in the context of the ICC setup. But they are still shitty when it comes to their own cricketing infrastructure. If we leave out VIP boxes then it's a very sad situation in every stadium, Motera might be exceptional but the ones i have attended so far, the majority of em were really bad. During IPL they are okay but everything goes down to shit when it's over.
The state governments also impose tax of up to 28% over the ticket price (on top of that, they charge exorbitant amounts for providing security and ruling politicians demand thousands of complementary passes). And they never do anything for the cricket fans. I understand the criticism directed towards the BCCI, but not everything is black and white here. In India, attending cricket matches is considered as a luxury, and politicians believe that they should tax such super-rich people to the brim. An example here: https://www.indiatoday.in/cities/thiruvananthapuram/story/kerala-minister-abdurahim-entertainment-tax-tickets-india-sri-lanka-thiruvananthapuram-odi-2319587-2023-01-10The problem is almost all the politicians in the subcontinent are corrupt. And another big problem is India is mostly run by the Modi government. There is basically no opposition party in India. So if the general population has any problem, they cannot say anything because the government will send people who basically “does not exist” to “handle” the situation. In other countries, we see that if the general population has any problem with the opposition party raises voice, and the government takes that into consideration and makes the changes that are needed. But India basically has become a dictatorship under the Modi government. So whatever the politicians do is going to be the final decision. Agreed, but there were more things that comes into the priority. Just on humanity basis there is no support for the people. In such a situation we can't expect things to happen in order with cricket. Political involvement shouldn't be there with politics. This is where we can experience the change. Even the players are worse, because they complete their days in cricket. Once after that joins the political party. In recent years more players have joined under Modi which should have never happened. Just for their own goodness they join parties. Well, of course, the players are going to join the party of Modi. Because if someone is actually supporting the opposition party, they will have a huge list, even on their life, let alone their career. So right now, even if people genuinely don’t like the Modi government they are still joining because they want to have the privileges that come with being in support with the government. And eventually, that is making the government stronger. This is just the opposite of what should have been happening. When people are joining the government instead of raising a voice against them, you know that the situation is bad.

I reluctantly followed the counsel of a financial advisor to fix my finances in order by creating a budget and tracking my expenses, inflow and outflow of cash using an excel sheet. The economy has been crazy in my country so I needed to do something urgently. My greatest realization after this is that inflation all round is destroying my budget. It's been five months now. I am torn between using my emergency funds or selling some of my assets to cushion the effect of this economic situation. What do you suggest I do?
Instead of immediately dipping into your emergency funds or selling assets, explore alternative ways to generate additional income. Look for potential side hustles, freelance opportunities, or creative projects that align with your skills and interests. Consider exploring investment opportunities that may offer better returns. Remember, adaptability and creativity are key during uncertain times. Diversifying your income streams can help offset the impact of inflation and provide more financial stability. Remember, individuals financial situation is unique, and as such you should tailor these suggestions to fit your needs and goals. He already has an emergency and asset fund, so I think he already knows what you mentioned because if he had the opportunity to earn extra income, he would never have decided to use the fund emergency or property sale. It can be said that this is a reluctant decision when we do not have a better solution. OP, between the choice between an emergency fund and an asset sale, I would think of an emergency fund because that is the mission it was created for. You shouldn't even think about selling an asset when you still have other options, no matter what it is, selling during an economic crisis is always a bad idea because its value is plummeting.

Social media is not only a powerful weapon, but in my opinion, it has become an indispensable part of our lives. Not only does it have a positive/negative impact on bitcoin, but it affects our daily lives, it's almost impossible for us to stop using it. Social networks are an integral part of any business or individual, apart from the elderly and disabled, I don't believe anyone can survive without social networks.
It is harmful, not helpful. If you don use social media and read cryptocurrency news too much, you will not be panic and sale off your coin. Market sentimemt is contributed a lot by uncertain emotion and chaotic decisions of many people. They are uncertain and fearful because they read too much articles, tweets on social media. When they turn off Internet, log out their social media accounts, they will feel better and they must watch the chart less often too. Why are you afraid of such news if you already know how the market works and have enough faith in bitcoin? I am sure that once you fully believe in bitcoin, even if you read a lot of negative news, it will make you more excited because you will know that it is a good time for you to buy cheap bitcoins. Or you don't like buying cheap? Do you think it's good for us to invest, but we don't keep up with the news and don't know what's happening? I'm not like you, constant news updates are a good thing because it allows me to predict where the market is going.

If there is one coach I won't argue for his player choice it would be guardiola, the man knows exactly what he needs in a player and utilizes these players to their very best. Kovacic in mere comparation doesn't match gundogan but I still can't wait to see him perform because I believe with guardiola as his coach now he definitely play much better than he is currently rated.
You are right, Guardiola knows exactly how to use a player. At the start of last season, we saw Manchester City become heavily reliant on Haaland. However, by the end of the season, this dependence had completely subsided. Gundogan was certainly a very important player in Manchester City's squad. However, since Guardiola is City's coach, he will be able to find a suitable replacement for Gundogan. Guardiola is very experienced. And he knows well which players are suitable to stabilize his squad. Pep Guardiola generally plans ahead. He is a coach that does not take a step which he did not think two steps ahead in the future. So of course he knows what he’s doing. I know some players are trying to leave Manchester City and that's because Manchester City is currently one of the best teams/clubs in the world if not the best. So a lot of players are realizing that the performance they are going to put on are not going to be enough for Manchester City. Manchester City is also trying to get some young players into the team. So some old players are moving away from Manchester City. But I believe Guardiola will be able to take the right steps that are necessary for the success of Manchester City.

Clarity about this player is still a question mark, I see that the 2 teams that are in touch with Lukaku at the moment don't really want Lukaku. They can use it, but when it comes to spending money they seem to prefer other players. On the one hand, Chelsea also didn't want their losses to continue, because they brought in Lukaku not at a small cost, but he couldn't make a good contribution. On the other hand, Inter Milan may only want him as a player on loan, because it costs more to make him their permanent player.
The issue with Lukaku is that he is not a bad player, we have seen him be a great player for so long, and yet he got injured and haven't gotten back all that much yet. I am not saying he is bad currently, all I am saying is that we haven't had that many games to see him healthy so far. That is why I believe that it is going to be a trouble for anyone to sign him as well. I do not expect him to be all that different and weird, he is going to be someone who will be a bit hard to recover with his size as well. This is why I believe that it is not going to be that much of a big deal when it comes down to getting a good contract for him, he could leave or stay or whatever but first we need to see him play before we can judge him and how he is. Lukaku is a great player and I don’t think he has lost the touch of greatness. I believe he will be able to perform well. But that’s just something that I only believe. Nothing is certain with him. And it is going to be a little bit of trouble for the club who is going to sign him now. We have seen him making and showing a lot of promises with his performance. But in the end, he was not able to deliver. He is a big guy. So sometimes it can be a curse as it is a blessing as well. He will always be physically stronger than most other players and at the same time. He is also going to be prone to injury, especially at this age.
