I don't know what your assumption is to make real sociedad the favorite to win this season. Although that is not impossible in football but in the Champions League, We know that other team still dominate the Champions league as favorites to win, Such as bayern munich, Manchester city and also real madrid. I will not refer to the improvement in performance of a team in the group phase and that is a strong reference that they will be able to become one of the teams included in the ranks of team that are candidates for winning the title. In fact, I think that psg will be able to stop real sociedad performance in the round of 16 because psg is more experienced in the Champions League and also has a better performance compared to them.

You can see the strength of other teams such as Bayern munich, Real madrid, which are able to perform better this season, Even these two teams are not only strong in the champions league, They also appear impressive in the domestic league. Therefore, I am sure that Real Sociedad will not be able to go further in the Champions League this season.
Real Sociedad being able to overcome the group stage hurdles and thereafter advancing to the last 16. Sorry to say but it'll only be in the widest of dreams that Sociedad will lift the UCL trophy this season. They're not so much of a good side neither are they a bad side. They've currently not just got what it takes to be the champions.

 There are still teams far better than them in all aspects, doing exceedingly well and even making extra efforts than Sociedad makes. Yes anything can happen in football but there are some fates that have been envisioned out. Maybe they'd scale through to the last 8 but the odds are very much minimal. This stage of the contest isn't a joke as all teams are in their best, they've got now till the second week of February to prepare for their encounters. Let the best team advance into the next stage.

yesterday's games didn't have any big surprises, galatasaray who played against fenerbahce got a draw which thus keeps everything as it was before the game started in relation to the position of the two teams in the table, it would have been bad for galatasaray if they had lost in that one game, in the same way that it would have been terrible for Fenerbahce if they had lost in this game. Both teams have the same points in the table and the competition between these two teams is very high to the point that even playing between them none of them will come out with a defeat. I see that what will decide the champion will be the first team that makes the mistake of losing in a game.

Kayserispor suffered their second defeat, with a good chance of being able to win in that game because the opponent is in a position far below them in the table, but in the last 4 games they only had 1 defeat, so they weren't such a weak opponent, but I saw that At least Kayserispor could win, but what happened on the field was that Kayserispor lost, conceded 2 goals and failed to score. with this result Kayserispor continues in the top positions, but it won't take many rounds for Adana to take position number 3 or 4 and Kayserispor to stay in positions below 5. they have been declining a lot, and speaking of Adana, they won and with this victory managed to get very close to the most important positions in the table
Galatasaray and Fernabache’s draw yesterday wasn’t short of our expectations as these are two teams that are keenly contesting each other for the title and that makes the Turkish League more improved and interesting to watch. The draw keeps the top of table how it was before the game as they both had one point a piece. I think at this point any slip from any of the team will determine the champion of the league else it’ll all be decided on Goal Differences.

 Kayserispor got one of their major surprises by losing to a team who sits below them but this is football and the defeat was very possible yes but it means a decline in form for them and they’ve got work to do on the team else they’ll be overthrown from their position in less than no time. I think the Turkish League is having it’s own fun too and we footballing fans loves these kind of fun and would get interested watching and following up on this league.

I would call that chelesea's owner this time has been successfully destroying the club. It means that if chelsea is playing so average like a relegated team. It has no good attackers or defenders. Mid is not even having creativity to distributing the ball to the attackers without even being read by its opponent. The gameplay of chelsea is very very monoton. This club has been losing its glory days when chelsea was able winning everything through implementing very attractive football.

Enough is enough. todd and poch shall out from the club. Chelsea will always stuck int he same place if chelsea keeps to pick the wrong coach. The club shall have picked xabi alonso as a new coach. he is someone who is in the same level as pep and jose mourinho.
Im sure chelsea will get its succcess as long as it will able to land xabi to the club. This is another disgusting result from chelsea. There may be many fans who watched that horrible match has been missing their breakfast with their family.

Chelsea is a shitty club with horrible gameplay. This is another bad performance from chelsea. Poch never learned.
.Yes, the owners are really spoiling this team, like why sign players with such huge amount and when they don’t perform you still give them some comforts and pats at the back after the match. Where’s the scolding spirit of Roman, he’ll fly from wherever he’s and speak to this team directly and when they tend not to heed his talk, either he flushes out some players or the coach is out on the street. But currently, we don’t know who to blame, the players or the coach because the owners are just mute about the whole situation but still ready to spill the cash in the January window.

 Xabi Alonso is one good coach but he shouldn’t be compared to Pep and Mourinho yet, though he wouldn’t want to come as he’s Madrid bound. I think Chelsea should watch out for Xavi or probably get Mourinho a return back to the club. The results keep getting crazy and the fans are actually tired of this. Crazy how the pride of London are now the Laughing stock of the city.

Martinez seems confident he will be return to play soon and currently he still focusing to recover from his injured and last week even without him Inter Milan can win easily from Lecce but Martinez is Inter Milan goal machine and from total 41 goals during this season Martinez has scores 15 goals which mean almost a half of Inter Milan goals was happened from Martinez so he is important player for this team

Inter Milan this weekend will fight against Genoa and it is confirmed Martinez will not be available and actually Inzaghi doesn't have many options for the front lines because at the squad Inter Milan has 4 players for forward lines total but two of them have gotten injuries Martinez and Sanchez so most likely Thuram will be played along with Marko Arnautovic but this player until now still unable to scored goal and yesterday Arnautovic was played while Inter Milan beat Lecce but i have to say he was performing poorly

I think Inter Milan shouldn't be underestimate Genoa because as mediocre team they were often can make big teams get in trouble and during this season the teams just like Napoli, Roma or Juventus was failed to beat them even Roma have to lose with big scores from them and about the odds Inter Milan has odds @1.60 but i am a bit doubt Inter Milan can able to overcomes Genoa with their condition especially Inter Milan's front lines strength is much reduced without Martinez but for safe bets i think both teams to scores is good
Martinez is one of the very few natural strikers we have in our modern time football and we must appreciate the way he’s dedicated to playing for Inter Milan. Like he’s literally been carrying this team on his shoulders for over 2 seasons and still not getting tired. That’s what player’s dedication is all about. Yes you can see the bizzare figures and how much the team aren’t really scoring much since he got out on injury but I think he’s set to return and that’s smelling doom for the like if Juventus who’re also league chasers bit not really serious in their chase.

 Inter Milan will be playing Genoa by weekend but what’s crazy is that their front pair haven’t had a goal this season but we believe they’ll get the goal(s) this weekend to maintain the club’s lead on top spot. For this match I think Inter will manage to get the win and the score line wont be much it could just be a lone goal for Inter Milan as Genoa are one team that could cause you a lot of worry.

Less financial budget for signing top players and most of signing player in this season as free agent or loan option I think not fair have to sack Xavi Hernandez from his position as manager. Despite without winning any tittles yet he was success made Barcelona become domestic league winner last season with financial problem face by Barcelona. Actually in this season, Xavi Hernandez made Barcelona success qualify to 16 phase in Champion League and become first achievement after failure last two season for qualifying to next round.

But difference when winter transfer window opening management give Xavi much money for signing top players, Xavi have try efficiency with players signed without have spent much money but success won La Liga tittle last season and qualify to 16 round of champion league, I think one of four tittle left seems get one by Barcelona in this season.
  Xavi has achieved success at Barcelona even with the financial situation of the club and yes, he must be given his accolades. The club might chose to sack him but that’s not on basis of his success rate at the team. It could be as a result of the club’s financial status but it’s better to have a mutiny agreement and discuss a pay cut rather that actual sacking because Xavi is ones of the club’s pride and knows how best to handle this club.

 No doubt he’s mid class but he’s not doing bad compared to his footballing counterparts like Gerrard and co, so I think Barcelona board should sit with him and come to an agreement should Incase it’s their financial status that’s the issue here. Else I think letting Xavi go might probably haunt them soon, cause they might end up bringing in another manager that would be worst or no where compared to Xavi

Well, I have said this before that Xabi Alonso has given little code that he is indeed interested and will coach Real Madrid as Ancelotti replacement.
There will be a truly profitable deal for Xabi Alonso if he succeeds in signing contract with Real Madrid.
He was once quite great midfielder that Real Madrid ever had and of course his love for Real Madrid will always remain to this day.

The only worry is that Leverkusen will have to be really busy looking for replacement for Xabi Alonso when he leaves and this will also affect the quality of Leverkusen performance to decline.
In the hands of Xabi Alonso, it is proven that Leverkusen has succeeded in reaching the highest point and the best conditions in the history of football, even though they have not actually won the title, Leverkusen has great hopes and opportunities this season.

They must be able to win the title this season or at least be runners-up to be able to get tickets to the UCL next season.
Even though Xabi will be leaving, there is great pride and enthusiasm when they have the opportunity to appear in the UCL competition.
Just like Xavi at Barcelona, Xabi Alonso will be a sweet code at Real Madrid; yes, he’s one of the few football players who’s succeeded as coaches. Yes, Zidane’s shoes might be too big for him to fill but I trust he’ll set a positive standard and keep raising the bar as a Madridsta and that’s what this young Madrid team needs. Especially with talks of Ancelotti leaving soon, I think Xabi will be a perfect replacement and it’ll be a win win for both his pocket and the club and players because he’ll be able to groom up these boys just like the way he’s doing with Leverkusen.

 Leverkusen will be at the end of this whole tale because they might not just lose out in Alonso but also on most key players and this is one major reason they’ve to try to win a title this season at least for tge fans before bowing out of the club and so as to increase the club’s financial strength, though it’ll be heavy on the club when it loses both coach and most quality players. So I think they should start searching for replacements like suitable replacements else it’ll be danger for the team next season.
1887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 25, 2023, 01:07:51 PM
It's a choice that Zidane still holds and I don't think it's about  selfishness but commitment.
He is always careful in choosing a club and this is the way he continues to maintain his image as a coach who is taken into account  rather than just choosing a job that is ultimately detrimental to himself so it would be better if he was more selective and that is still proving to be very good now.
Instead of saying he's selfish Id rather say that Zidane is one of those coaches who is pretty good at keeping the commitments hes held over the years whether its as a coach or as a player.

On the other hand he has always emphasized that he will not be in the EPL and that is not selfish but a choice he has made so it is ridiculous when EPL clubs continue to force the will for Zidane to coach there which is unlikely and a waste of time. It's not about money and resources but I see that sia only wants to coach where he will benefit in terms of performance and the career he has built so neatly is not destroyed. 
Zidane is one coach that understands class and class doesn’t just come with winning trophies but also with maintaining standards. Because the pay is mouthwatering and good doesn’t mean he has to run and chase them, after running therein and the club flops, what happens to his career? All in jeopardy, therefore I doubt if he'll coach in the EPL.

This I’ll call commitment and class. He prefers to maintain his standard than get involved in a shitty system. Zizou knows the EPL is one hell of a league and has still stood his ground on not wanting to coach there. And I don’t see him changing that stand soon more especially for his footballing and coaching career, well I think he might decide to coach at PSG if Lius Enrique fails to deliver and gets sacked, or better still go back to coaching Madrid after Ancelotti leaves.
1888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 24, 2023, 11:20:16 PM

Building good chemistry is the main point, apart from improving good performance, this will have a good impact on the future of the club, because it is useless if PSG has star players, sufficient finances, an experienced coach. If PSG cannot establish cooperation between all the players, they will not cooperate with each other inflate the ego perhaps PSG has achieved success in winning the title it desires, such as the Champions League, and yes, it is true that PSG should learn from experience why clubs such as Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Manchester City were able to achieve this success thanks to their coach who was able to unite all the players and not differentiating each other which creates envy for other players.

That is why chemistry is the main factor for the club to achieve maximum results and I am sure that if Luis Enrique is able to make PSG a club with high solidarity and is able to establish cooperation between players and management this will have an impact on PSG's performance, after all PSG is still playing well in League 1, but yes, it cannot be said to be truly strong if they have not won the Champions League title, even though PSG have star players, their performance is still far from strong UCL rivals such as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich.
The PSG squad over the years have suffered lack of cooperation and that alone has increased the Ego on most of the players. Luis Enrique is quite a quality coach and should be able to bring out the best from this team but what’s needed is cooperating together no matter your class and achievements without that this team will not go pass what they achieve yearly which is the Ligue 1.

 They have the financial power and squad depth to challenge for the UCL but yet they don’t go past he Round of 16 or Last 8 and that’s very bad. Well let’s keep our fingers crossed that Luis Enrique will get the job done at PSG and make  the fans smile  again, cause they're desperately in need of seeing their team win a major trophy.
1889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: December 24, 2023, 07:42:21 PM

Though I understand you made a mistake with your choice of word pertaining the club you intended to write about,  but I think I should correct you.  Inter Milan isn't playing in the UEFA Europa League competition rather it is AC Milan that will be playing in the playoff Europa League after finishing third in the group F in the just concluded group stage of the UEFA champions league so I believe you meant to write about AC Milan and not their city neighbours Inter Milan.
Again, Atletico Madrid finished as the group winners of the group E in the UEFA Champions League and wouldn't be playing in the Europa League.


AC Milan who play Stade Rennais in the playoffs is one of the strongest teams of the competition and it's believed that they're surely gonna reach the round of 16 because their superior number of quality players.  But if they should progress and meet either of Bayer Leverkusen and Liverpool,  they might be ousted from the competition by either of the two teams.
AC Mian heading to the Europa are seen as one of the favorites to win this competition judging from the way they performed and the quality of players they’ve, if they build their confidence level to match that of last season's then winning the UEL is not going to be a very big problem, despite the fact that Liverpool and Leverkusen are still in the tournament.

 They’re a team that’s quite determined and have a good experience on European football. But the issue os that they might possibly shy out when they meet with the big boys of the competition amd that’s one thing they need to work on before resumption of the competition in February. They need to fix up their injury issues so as to build a formidable squad to challenge for the Europa League else they’ll not be going far in that competition.
1890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 24, 2023, 07:36:00 PM
It's a big blow for the Blues to get up and improve their fortunes this season, if I'm not mistaken, R James has been sidelined twice this season due to injury. An endless misery befalling Pochettino squad, the latest defeat to Wolves adds to the complexity of the situation they are experiencing. As one of the players and also the team captain, James absence means a big problem that Pochettino must find a solution for.

Injury problems have been one of the factors in Chelsea decline this season, many players have been in the treatment room one after another. As many as seven players are currently sidelined, it is very difficult for Pochettino to achieve the target and finish in a more appropriate place. The composition of players who lack experience adds to the coach's headaches, the back line is not their only problem this season.

I feel this Poch’s Chelsea is facing so may difficulties especially upfront and to crown it all the injury problem. Yes Reece James has been on the sideline twice due to injury but that’s not a key player, I feel the loss of Caicedo to injury was one reason why they lost this match. Though injury isn’t an excuse in football because he has replacements just that his replacements aren’t fully fit.

 Now let’s check the players ratings, you see that yes they give their all but when they get in to score a goal they seem pretty weak and fragile up front; this is one major challenge, Pochettino needs to take care of it very fast else this Chelsea will just be a shadow of last season and that’s one thing the fans will kick against especially with the large amount spent in the transfer window, and I'm pretty sure they'll still spend alot more.
1891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 24, 2023, 04:41:40 PM

Xabi Alonso needs to be selective in targeting players in the January transfer market, the need for new energy in the starting XI is not that urgent but as an adequate rotation option they need to do it. The most unpredictable challenge is injury, Laverkursen has a busy match schedule and to compensate for this requires an even squad depth so that it can be stable in each competition. For now, there is no visible weakness in Xabi Alonso squad, as competition increases, this will show itself.

Consistency to achieve success at the end of the season requires many things, Xabi Alonso really understands the dynamics of the Bundesliga and the dominance of Bayern Munich because he was once part of them. The Bundesliga, European League and DFB Pokal are favorites for Laverkusen as a strong candidate to challenge for the title, the scale of competition priorities means that Xabi Alonso needs to do something in the transfer market.
Currently Leverkusen are solid in their squad build up, all players and management personnels in check too. They've in the first half of the season gain buoyancy and have attained high feats. It's very much impressive that Alonso was able to set up and head so well as team to this point of greatness. They're now changing the whole narrative of sport in the Bundesliga. The transfer windows are almost open so it's up to Alonso to carefully select new men that's complement and even help the team grow higher.

 I don't have an iota of doubt that in the next half and in coming weeks, Leverkusen would create an atmosphere of dreadedness around their team. Munich are feeling the heat from them and it only keeps showing that there's still more heat to come. I've actually never been so confident in any team as I am  for Leverkusen. They're basking in the right glory and it's only fun and beautiful to watch how far and well they've been able to perform so far. Maybe this is a new beginning in the German umbrella. More to come from Leverkusen.

Maybe the situation would have been different if Osimhen and Politano had not left the field because they received red cards.
Anyone will give very bad criticism and everyone will say that Napoli this season is not like last season and it normal if this happens because previously I also thought the result of yesterday's match ended in a draw or Napoli won but in fact surprises can always happen in football so we don't need to be surprised by a sad result like this and there are many reasons that make Napoli so bad and I have often said about the causes.
This is one of Mazzarri toughest tests as a new coach, he has faced a very tough challenge, while Osimhen had to miss several matches because he received a red card. Meanwhile, Osimhen is one of the players who can be relied on and in the upcoming match, I am not sure whether Napoli can get additional points, which is certain don't expect too much anymore.
Roma appeared very impressive and in the match against Napoli Lukaku looked very aggressive and produced 1 winning score for Roma and I am sure Mourinho is very proud of this revenge.
Napoli did their best to hold the game but Roma held onto the home advantage and proved to be the better side. Mazarri took this job with a task given to him, he's got to meet the target or risk his job at the club. There's boo much time for leniency and he should be proactive at his decisions for the the team. Maybe the player shortcomings were a part of the game outcome but still there ought to be provisions for a covering up. Roma are fighting to get back in the race in the league and so is Napoli too. They don't have leisure to take chances and so if anyone chooses to slack, they just have to bear the consequence.

 I wouldn't advise any team to just overlook some games. In as much as it may not necessarily be their fault for an unfavorable outcome, they really just have to put in extra strength to work out victories.There are still weeks ahead and corrections should be made. In the coming weeks, Mazarri would be watched sternly and his performance and impact on his squad will be weighed and assessed.

Manchester United doesn't have sharp striker and it proven from their players statistics because Manchester United top scorer is belongs to Mctominay which is the midfielder and we can see it based from Manchester United forward player lists that the players just like Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Antony were unable to performing well and Manchester United was bought Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta to solved their problem but this transfer was failure because until today Rasmus Hojlund still unable to scores goals in Premier league

Reported if Manchester United want to bought new players they have to sell their current players first and the rumour is at least 4 players who into Manchester United selling list just like Casemiro, Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, and Anthony Martial that they will be sell this January and Manchester United targetting fresh funds 80 millions from these players so if this according to their plan Manchester United can buy new striker to strengthen their forward lines but indeed there is no guarantee if they buy new striker Manchester United can able to performing well because their current problem is not only from their forward lines
Rashford is one player that was actually doing well in previous seasons and he's had huge contributions and impacts to the United squad and he was practically fans favorite and a threat to teams too. But this season hasn't been quite good for him, his playing style changed and he's literally had the worst season. The fans are not encouraged by his performances and they've not been shy to express their disappointment and disgust at him. I don't know and can't tell the source of the problem but he's just got an extra work to do on himself.

 He's a striker but has not played as a striker. Hojlund the second striker brought in to assist had quite had a more favourable play in the UCL than in the EPL but he's also got to improve. It just seems as though the entire team is in a black out situation right now and it isn't good, they don't seize to let down their fans lately and I feel sorry for every United fans this period, cause their club is in a mess.

The process that Ajax has gone through is very cool this season and their coach is also very strong, he can raise the mentality of the players to rise from the bottom of the standings and are now in fifth place in the standings, of course the target of entering the UCL league next season is somewhat impossible so their target is the most realistic it entered the European league, because securing tickets to the European competition was already a good achievement considering the destruction of the team's performance this season.

With a difference of 8 points from Az Alkmaar, I think Ajax, with its current development, still has hope of overtaking Az Alkmaar, because I'm not sure Alkmaar will be consistent, they will definitely make some mistakes in big matches like the previous match against PSV. they lost badly 4-0.
Ajax who started the season very poorly with conceding so many goals and not having much win ratios, But over the past 2 months we can see how this team has risen so well from below average to sitting in 5th position which shows how much work this coach has put in this team, he really tried in bringing the best out of his boys and now they're performing as expected and I believe they'll maintain their good form and finish in a better spot on the standings, even though they don't come close to winning the tournament.

 Yes, the UCL spot might be out of reach but they’re trying so hard to get an European qualification and that’s achievable especially with their wide range of experience , AZ Alkmaar won’t be a match to this Ajax as they’ll sure slip and Ajax could get serious and pick their spot.
1895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The European Super League on: December 24, 2023, 02:39:40 PM

It needs to be acknowledged that the European Super League's finances are bigger than FIFA and UEFA, that's an important note. And now FIFA and UEFA do not want the European Super League to become a competitor to the UCL. That's what I understand from the current rejection. Just imagine, before each team started the match, they had already made a profit of more than 200 million Euros and that was bigger than the prize for winning the UCL which was only around 80 million Euros. Like it or not, every club really needs additional funds periodically to increase financial stability.

Napoli made the right decision and agreed to join. Then Barcelona also benefits, especially now that their finances are worrying, they feel helped by having new competition without paying a penny and then getting a profit up front. Realistically, if clubs in Europe want to join, the European Super League is divided into several categories with a very reasonable system so that each division gets the same financial assistance to improve the quality of players.

Currently many clubs are refusing, but I'm sure ESL will continue to lobby, and don't forget that FIFA and UEFA must remember who Florentino Perez is. Roll Eyes
Football has gone beyond just passion to the finances. And as it’s said no business flourishes without finance. Yea, there were rumors of ESL which got UEFA shaking and now it seems that the rumors are getting true as the movement to get the maiden edition is on and we’ve most clubs still against it but some clubs are in for it. Which means that there's still hope for the league to become a reality in times to come.

 Yes, the finance from there is pretty tempting and that’s one factor most of these clubs consider because it’ll help them in recruiting more players, Florentino Perez is one hell of a business guru that knows how to get what he wants and get the profits too and that’s one major reason I don’t think the European Super League competition will die anytime soon, even though many top clubs have rejected joining the league.

PSG's performance in the Champions League is a bit doubtful because PSG doesn't seem to have the enthusiasm to play in the Champions League, they are just trying to fight hard to qualify for the round of 16 and look like they are having difficulty getting there, but indeed PSG is in quite a tough team like Milan and Dortmund so that This made PSG have to fight hard to qualify and it was fortunate that PSG was able to qualify with only a goal difference from Milan.
Meanwhile, Real Sociedad is also in a tough group like Inter and Benfica, but Real Sociedad has not experienced a defeat at all, even though this is the first time Real Sociedad has competed in the Champions League, but this club was able to emerge as group winners even though it has the same points as Inter.

Real Sociedad's enthusiasm cannot be doubted and it looks like PSG will experience difficulties when facing Real Sociedad, but PSG experience competing in the Champions League cannot be denied but if PSG cannot achieve unexpected results, it will still be difficult for PSG to advance to the next rounds.
PSG are a good side but they've not really been so good as one would expect them to be. Even their advancement was a narrow one and then they're fixed with a new coming team to the UCL who are eager and hungry to compete and still go far in the contest. PSG still got a shot though, well let's see how far they'll get this season in the UCL tournament.

Not trying to be little Sociedad but PSG has got players with UCL experiences and then judging with that they've got an upper hand but for Sociedad, even though they're newbies to the tournament, they had an intriguing record in the group stage ans so they ought to be given that respect that's deserving of them. They're still a threat. They're doing well also in the La Liga and they seem like real goal getters. All will be concluded after the first leg results in February.

Atletico Madrid gave it their all, even though I didn't think they would win because Sevilla seemed to be playing not to let any goals get in. I knew from the start that the game would be difficult and that someone would need to be cautious. Atletico Madrid scored in the second half, and I believe that was a mistake on the part of Ramos, the defensive player, or Sevilla after the ball was played poorly and the player from Atletico Madrid scored. I also think that was a fortunate goal for Atletico Madrid, and I'm happy that they won because it meant they would at least be able to compete with Barcelona.

Fans of Barcelona were hoping that Atletico Madrid would draw the game so that Barcelona would stay in third place in the league table. However, As it turned out, Atletico Madrid won, and Barcelona moved up to fourth place once more. If the teams return from their current Christmas break, I have no doubt that they will do so with great strength, and if Barcelona wants to be in a good position this season, I believe they need to perform well rather than the way they are now.

Yesterday Atletico Madrid played host to Sevilla who were a strong side in the game too. They really didn't give their host the leisure to win so easily. They put up a tough fight for victory but graciously Atletico in some way we're still able to take on the victory. This win helped them stay on top and sadly for Barcelona, heir chance of coming back up have been extended a bit.

 Even though the game was expected to end in a draw considering the caliber of teams, Atletico knew what was at stake and didn't want to leave the stake to be capitalized on. Barcelona now are at a point where extra struggle, effort and push should be implemented in order to climb up to a comfortable top spot. It definitely won't be easy based on the level of resilience of Girona, Atletico and Real Madrid. Barcelona have to come out of their current shell and use the last half of the season to change the narrative of the league standings.

This derby match is going to be interesting because recently we have good performance from these two teams, and they are eagerly looking for the title in this season as well Turkish League is also having good fan base with recent development increasing their exposure as well, but they need to be more stick about few things which are creating controversies which are never been good for the sporting environment in any country.

Fenerbahçe is going to host this match with Galatasaray is having recently elimination from the Champions League and Fenerbahçe is waiting for their opponent in Conference league match is having too many expectations for both side fans but as we have recent history of results look like draw could be also acceptable for both teams because Galatasaray is mostly having defensive strategy which works for them.
The two toughest teams in the Turkish League will be going against each other and it's one game to look out for. Both teams from the onset are not so cool with themselves as there's much frenzy on who's the best from them and their fans too are strongly backing the contests. It's more or less the biggest game in the league. Both sides are good no doubt but one just has to be more than good on match day or maybe they stay equal and end in a tie.

 Galatasaray who just got knocked out of the UCL race will be the visitors and now will the UCL outcome have an impact on their confidence and vision ahead of the game, maybe or maybe not, no one knows but what's certain is that they seem as a team that's relentless and would put up a tough battle and the host Fernabache have the home advantage to their sleeves and also the strength of the team is an added advantage. One would anticipate how good the game would turn out for both teams but it sure won't be an easy tussle.

I have seen lots of posts in the forum here claiming Aston Villa might end up surprising everyone this season. I will just shake my head. How do you even think Aston Villa will win the league title? I am not underestimating Aston Villa, but I do say that the highest they can do is to end the season in the top 4, but they can’t win the league. Aston Villa performances have been really nice this season, and everyone keeps on being surprised by their nice performances, but we saw how they messed everything up yesterday. I never believed the match would be difficult for Aston Villa to win, but they couldn’t win the match, it ended in a draw.
 
If Aston Villa were able to win their match against Sheffield again yesterday, then they would have been in first place currently, but they wasted the great opportunity to stay in first place. I am always expecting disappointment from a team like Aston Villa at any moment and am not always shocked by the outcome of their match.
Aston Villa in the last 1year have been the highest point takers in the EPL. They've been exceptional at their games, winning almost always and ensuring that they stay at the top chart. No one saw them coming and they've been able to be consistent, keeping home win records this season and they've not failed to cause troubles for teams.

 They've got the capacity to remain on top but I really don't think City who's now below them would let them stay there, so if at all there'd be a change in the standings, then Villa won't go below the 6th position. They're so good to even try qualifying for the UEL next season. As competitive as the EPL has been this year, so far Villa have proven to be strong enough to fight back threats and create value and confidence in the team too.

The Leadership of Real Madrid consistently takes their roles seriously. They build a great plan for the team and make strategic decisions that have contributed to the club's historic achievements. Their ability to navigate the complex world of football management and deliver on their promises make them the best at this. Their success is also built on a keen eye for talents. Real Madrid now has policy in identifying and acquiring some of the best potential players.

The commitment and passion of the players contributes significantly to the success and legacy of Real Madrid. They know that they will receive the unwavering support from fans. The presence of passionate supporters creates an atmosphere that inspires players to perform at their best. The connection between the players and the fans fosters a sense of loyalty and dedication that goes beyond individual achievements. The potential pairing of Mbappe and Bellingham together at Real Madrid makes the team more exciting to watch. Both players bring brilliant skills to the pitch, and their presence could indeed become a sensational duo in La Liga.
Real Madrid is one team that have been in their perfect form this season. They know what they're after and they know how to get it. Without mincing, Ancelloti is the best coach so far. The fact that he's kept up with games even winning without a striker. His players versatility and coordination, the team spirit. He's put his squad in check and has made them a better side at every encounter.

 I don't think anyone expects less from them and definitely beyond all doubt, they've not disappointed any one. The level of confidence we have in them is enough sign to prove that they're currently the best team. Injuries or not, they just have a way to turn the game to their advantage and favour and their ability to be consistent at the wins is actually intriguing. Definitely even if their opponent for the round of 16 may put up a competition, there's still this confidence that they'd subdue Leipzig and advance to the quarter finals and even win the tournament.
