So sad how Eden Hazard glorious moment in football turned to shreds the moment he went to Real Madrid. It's still an unforgettable mistake he made and I know one thing for sure is that Eden is trying his best to recover after battling with several injuries in the team.
Players like Eden never bounce back to their best and moving to Real Madrid was not his best option if you ask me because you never in a calm state as your position is being contested for in very game which is bad for player development.  I guess we shall forget about him like nothing ever happened.
Eden Hazard took a gamble by signing for Real Madrid, since his arrival from Chelsea he had never replicated his form at Bernabeu, I believe injury took some part of dip in form, from my own point of view he should sign for a new club maybe EPL club where he will get a regular playing time and and get back his form with the world cup fast approaching he needed to get back his form to earn a call up the Belgian National team, else staying at Real Madrid will further regress his footballing career due to limited playing time and with Vinicuis Jr. playing brilliantly at the flanks it will be difficult to bench him.
Since Hazard’s departure from Chelsea to Real Madrid, I would say he has struggled, and not just struggling with proving himself but struggling with his fitness. He has become prone to injuries and that has been a huge setback for him and I think it will be more difficult now fighting for the his first team shirt with Vinicius Jr in top form. He will have to play from the bench or leave the club to get game time.
At some point, players feel the need to prioritize high wages over their career. We have seen quite some players making similar mistakes in making a move away from a club or league where they were super good and considered very valuable players. Just like Sanchez moving from Arsenal to Manchester united and destroying a career that was turning out to be the best time of his life. Same scenario with Hazard, since he left Chelsea for Real Madrid he has struggled to find the form he had playing in England.

But Ronaldo has been very clear with his desire to play in Champions League, and I doubt he will be happy playing with United now, and not only that I believe Ronaldo also not happy with the current squad of United, if he stay it's more likely that he will be just like Lukaku on chelsea last season.
Is quite obvious that Ronaldo is not really interested in playing the Europa League next season. He among the world best players, and he probably want to participate in the upcoming Champion League competition. While, United ended last season at the 6th place on the standings, and couldn't make it to the top 4. But, they don't seem ready to sign Ronaldo out. Erik ten Hag reveals that Ronaldo is basically not for sale. Although, other big teams such as Chelsea will be willing to buy him. However, Manchester United who failed to extend Pogba's contract, and lost him to Juventus can't afford to also lost Ronaldo. Nevertheless, I believe the club will do anything within their capacity to ensure he stays.
 
The situation with Christiano Ronaldo wanting to leave are rumours, there is no official release from Ronaldo or his team about his next move. What Ronaldo wants from the club is for the club to bring in talented players this transfer window to strengthen the squad. He wants to compete at top level and win trophies, he made this clear from the start. Erik Ten Hag made a statement to say he had a conversation with Ronaldo and he never said he was leaving so that should be enough to put an end to the speculations.

I disagree with the examples you gave. I thought you were going to classify "cursed money" as money made from illegal activities such as human trafficking, Black arms trade e.t.c.

For example, you do a good work that is worth $1000 but you got paid $300, the $300 will be enough to buy you things that's actually worth $1000 or more. And these things will last long for you. 
This is not how things work in the real world. You got cheated of $700, and paid only $300 you think the value is going to magically reflect in your $300? This reminds of bible story of Jesus feeding the multitude with five loaves of bread and two fishes.

It was a surprise to read that Harry Maguire will remain Manchester United's captain next season, as confirmed by Erik ten Hag. Whether the team is ready for his captaincy will be interesting to see. We continue to support the captain fully and will give him our full attention. At United before, he couldn't succeed because of a policy, but under Erik Ten, he'll be succeeded. To inspire him, all he needs is a reasonable and sensible coach. Let's wait and see how things turn out.
Maybe Erik ten Hag sees that Maguire has the potential to be even better but unfortunately, maybe Erik ten Hag's views with the other players in the squad have differences. But yes, after all, the decision must be respected, because with mutual support it will make the team grow more solid. Erik ten Hag has become a coach who has become a hope for Manchester United and hopefully the results are as expected, because if the results are far from what was expected then it is very easy for Manchester United to continue to change coaches.
Maguire had a very bad season, Manchester United squad were not at their best last season and it was clear on Maguire performance. It could be Erik Ten Hag doesn’t see Harry Maguire as a bad player after all. Maguire’s been suppressed by the pressure of the team not being in good form and as the captain it is normal to feel the pressure on you. It really not easy having everyone turning to you when things go bad, that is a lot of pressure but hopefully Erik Ten Hag will revive the team and we will see Harry Maguire play better next season.

Raheem Sterling have finally sealed his move to one of Manchester city rival. The Englishman will definitely do better in the club but I'm still doubting because of the number he is probably putting on. I'm strongly against him wearing the number 9 jersey. As we all know it's a curse in the team and someday, someone will wear the number 9 jersey in Chelsea. Sterling deal will include him as one of the highest paid players in the team and also his contract is valid until June 2027.
The curse of the number 9 shirt at Chelsea has always been very difficult to break and I also hope that Raheem Sterling does not use that jersey number.
but in terms of quality Raheem Sterling is still very good and his age is still very mature, now he is still 27 years old and it is very possible for him to contribute greatly to Chelsea. This is a very good signing for Chelsea in this transfer window, I have no doubt that Raheem Sterling can replace Lukaku in Chelsea's front line.
I don't entertain superstition, curse or not I believe most players reach top level in their performance when they play in their preferred position, managers have changed the positions of players like Jose Mourinho changed Mikel Obi from a striker to a defensive midfielder at Chelsea. He excelled in this position. Raheem Sterling is a good signing for Chelsea but I don’t think if he will perform well playing as a top striker. Chelsea can still sort for a striker and play Sterling in the wing cause he has being playing as a winger and performs better in that position. Thomas Tuchel may already have something in store for Sterling at the club.

Napoli Director Giuntoli don't seem to let go of Koulibaly this summer. Instead Napoli are offering him a big offer in the team to be part of the team board in the future deal. He's one tough player in the team and only his presence alone is worth them winning game. He's a player with experience and knows how to deliver in a game. The centre back is tight and knows the knots of his team since he's one of the club oldest player with a lengthy experience in the team. Nevertheless, Chelsea are quite interesting in the player, but Giuntoli have made it clear that they are not yet ready to sell him out.
Kalidou koulibaly has been outstanding for Napoli, his presence at the back gives the midfield and attack so much confidence going forward and a balance to the backline. He has been an important piece to the puzzle and Napoli have stated that they are not interesting in selling. It seems they want to reward him with a new and improved contract. I read he has been offered the role of the captain of the team as they are eager to see him continue to stay at the club.

In this year's transfer market, Tottenham Hotspur have a fun transfer activity for fans. They successfully recruited 5 (five) new players and Clement Lenglet became the fifth player to be successfully brought in on loan this summer.

Clement Lenglet has long been a target for Tottenham and it was only this year that Antonio Conte's target was achieved even though there was no purchase option in the deal as suggested by Fabrizio Romano.
The presence of Lenglet in Conte's squad next season will complete the three-man back in his favorite formation by pairing Erik Dier and Cristian Romero.
Clement Lenglet become fifth player success got by Tottenham Hotspur preparing for next season although with loan option from Barcelona, before Clement Lenglet, Spur have success got  Richarlison, Ivan Perisic, Yves Bissouma, and Fraser Foster. Looks Tottenham Hotspur really serious team prepare for next season actually Spurs will play on champion league. I think Clement Lenglet will be good option for Antonio Conte although not get regular position with Barcelona, but looks he will get regular position team with Spur and become favorite defender for Antonio Conte next season.
Tottenham Hotspur have really surprised me in this summer transfer window, almost two months to go in the transfer window and they already have five players registered to their team. This side have showed seriousness in their transfer dealings and they look prepared already for the next season although I doubt Clement Lenglet is a good signing for Antonio Conte side as some people say, my analysis could be wrong but we shall see how it pans out.

West Ham are thinking of a move for Roma left winger Justin Kluivert. It is said to be around a 13 million pounds move. He has played as a loanee for Nice and Leipzig in the previous two seasons. I think this is an enough proof for Roma not to think of him in the starting eleven. This is an opportunity for West Ham as a result. However Roma might still have a place for him in their future plans. This might cause them not to be eager for a permanent deal. But West Ham can still sign him on loan in that case.
West Ham united are also looking to strengthen their side for the next campaign, after finishing 7th sealing their ticket to the European conference cup they need to add some talents to the squad and Justin Kluivert is one name linked with a transfer to West Ham. It will be a good signing for West Ham if Roma will sell him, £13m is also a good fee for a player that good with pace and has ability to dribble through the opponents defense and can score goals. He's complete modern day attacker.

I think if PSG should consider bringing in Ronaldo, the rivalry between Ronaldo and Messi shouldn't be considered because both players are professionals and they understand what it means to be called professionals, meaning no matter the rivalry or dispute between them has to be put aside and working to achieving the objectives of the team should be their priority. I believe they will work together as a team and if that happens PSG will be a team to breed fear to other competing teams at all level.

Arsenal might make an offer for N'Golo Kante according to rumours. It would be a really unexpected move for me honestly. But it would be good thinking for Arsenal also. Because Kante would secure Arsenal's defensive line even more by his strong play. However I don't think Chelsea would let him go just like that now. He has still one more year left on his contract and Chelsea would keep him until the end of it even if they don't manage to extend it. Kante must be contented with playing for them now too.
Arsenal going for N'Golo Kante is a really good move because as you said he will be able to secure the backline. He has been very impressive for years, he’s solid at the midfield for Liecester city, to Chelsea and the French national team, winning the league title with Chelsea and Liecester city and the World cup with France. He would surely be a massive boost for Arsenal if he joins but I don't think Chelsea will be willing to give out such a player to strengthen their rivals and will look to send him elsewhere if the need be to sell.

Transfer rumours:

England forward Phil Foden, 22, is set to sign a new six-year deal at Manchester City worth £200,000-a-week. 1 more good job for Manchester City.
Arsenal could make a surprise approach for Chelsea and France midfielder N'Golo Kante. This rumor is really a surprise to me. What do you think?
Ajax have told Manchester United to improve their offer of 43m euros if they want to sign Argentina centre-back Lisandro Martinez. Martinez is a very good footballer, but is he really worth that much?
United have been approached to sign Paulo Dybala as a potential replacement for Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, who wants to leave Old Trafford this summer. The 28-year-old Argentina attacker is a free agent after leaving Juventus at the end of last season. Dybala as a replacement for Ronaldo? Is it a good exchange for Manchester?
Barcelona have matched the £60m offer, including add-ons, put forward by Chelsea for Leeds United and Brazil attacker Raphinha. Will this offer be enough for Raphinha to choose Barcelona?
Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong, 25, has his heart set on remaining at Barcelona and will reject Manchester United. So, after all the talk of leaving, Jong is still staying at the club?
Juventus are aware of negotiations between the agents of Matthijs de Ligt and Bayern Munich but the Serie A giants have yet to receive an opening bid for the 22-year-old Netherlands defender, who has also been linked to Chelsea. Lots of interested clubs. What will Matthijs de Ligt decide in the end?

Being able to tie down Foden to a new contract extension is good news for the clubs and the fans because he’s a very talented player and they will be happy having him play for their team. If Arsenal can seal the signing of Kante it will be a massive boost for Arteta and the team also getting a reliable player at the dept of the midfield which is an important position in the team. Dybala is not a pure 9, he has always played from the wings, getting him as a replacement for Christiano Ronaldo doesn't seem like the perfect idea. I would be expecting names like Scamacca, Lewandowski, Lauturo Martinez because these are strong number 9 who can play confidently at the centre of the attack.

I like blockchair.com before, but I stopped using it when I saw 1xbit ad on the site.

As good as https://blockstream.info is, you did not include it.

There is a lot that people can do on https://mempool.space
That is not good enough reason stop using their services. blockchair.com is a good blockchain explorer, the first time I saw 1xbit casino ad on Blockchair was right after they launched their campaign on the forum, the scam accusations was clear. I didn't use the casino because their ad popped up on my screen. Blockchair explorer is not to be blame if a person fails to do their research. For all I know it could be google ads designed to surface when you type certain keywords. The casino is a scam, no amount of paid ads will change that.

Chelsea needs to get a striker like a number nine inside the team.
If they fail to do so, they will lack scoring goals to an extent next season.
All the years spent in and with Manchester United by Ronaldo will be useless one he joins Chelsea.
But same Man utd who sparked he's career wants to bring it down.
I don't think what Cristiano Ronaldo has done will go to waste when he joins Chelsea. It's probably true that some people will say something slightly negative about Cristiano Ronaldo when he was at Manchester United. That is a risk for a footballer that we will see everywhere and to anyone, including Ronaldo.
Despite all that, actually I still want Ronaldo in the Red Devils uniform.
I have never visualized Christiano Ronaldo playing in the Chelsea shirts, it looks awkward trying picture it in my head but who knows, anything can happen. I've been following the situation of Ronaldo and Manchester United, from today news nothing has surfaced yet about a statement from Ronaldo or Manchester United on the final decision of the future of Ronaldo in the team. If Chelsea are able to convince Ronaldo to join them they will be building a very strong team with the addition of Raheem Sterling which will be able to match the league top teams, Liverpool and Manchester city. As much as I wouldn't like Ronaldo to chelsea, I would want to see a tough and competitive season.

Phil Foden is expected to sign a contract extension for Manchester City. It is expected to be a six-year deal and he is going to earn 200,000 pounds per week. Foden is one of the important players for the team and he also must be happy with staying for a longer time period. He has played in various positions which includes even the centre-forward position in the team. However we would see him in his natural position more as of now as Haaland has been signed.
Phil Foden has grown and developed to be a very important player for Manchester city, his ability to play in different positions, pace, dribbling and goal scoring has earned him the trust of the manager and the club is now willing to offer him an extension contract. That is a boost for the team and an achievement for the young star who have being showing prospects of a brighter future. No doubts in years to come he would be like Raheem Sterling.

I also want to advice the OP to be careful where he posts this kind of information and who he tells about investing. If you had made this post on a social app that's supposed to have a crypto community like telegram or reddit, most of the responses you will be getting are people who are trying to convince you to invest in one platform or the other. Scammers are like bees to honey, talk like this attract their attention faster than light and you may find yourself losing more than you bargain for.

Nothing good will come out of this if the admin was so sure of making this much money he wouldn't be wasting his time sending signals in a telegram group.
I also don't trust newbies whose first posts are questions about sketchy investments because in a way they promote this scam groups

Roma are rumoured to be after Crystal Palace left winger Wilfried Zaha now. Zaha has been performing really wonderfully for Crystal Palace for years. He has scored many goals for his team despite not being a centre-forward normally. Roma must be considering to increase their attacking power at the moment. However there are already two decent wingers in the team too. These wingers are Justin Kluivert and El Shaarawy. Kluivert was a loanee last season actually so maybe they would think of doing it again. Then Zaha would have only El Shaarawy to compete against.
Zaha has been a very important player for crystal palace for years now and has been consistent, scoring goals and helping the club maintain their premier league stay. I once heard rumours he was to join Arsenal but looks like they were just rumours in the end. It's not clear yet how concrete the speculations about Roma wanting his services is but it will be a good move for him, working with Jose Mourinho, he will do great and even score more goals and contribute to the teams growth.

I can't imagine Messi leaving PSG now. With Barcelona he has won everything he can win, and in fact there are no better teammates to play with than PSG where he now plays football. Manchester City don't even come close to PSG in terms of individual qualities. Messi also has more than enough money, he is purely for the sporting picture and he only wants one thing at the moment and that is to win the Champions League again. Then there are only a few clubs that are good enough where he can go and who can also pay him. He better stay in Paris until he wins the CL again.
Leo Messi is a key player for both his former club Barcelona and his present team Paris Saint Germain. Messi ultimate goal for this upcoming season is to lift the champions league, nothing more, nothing less. Leo Messi is outstanding in PSG and one of the big name the team have currently and losing him will be a total disappointment to them and the fans. The champions league trophh can still be lifted by any team because it's a trophy for every team in football as long as the team is serious and consistent in winning games.
Messi has been a very key player for his new and former club, he did so well at FC Barcelona for years winning the ballon dor seven times in that campaign but since his move to PSG we have seen his performance dropped by a high margin, his contributions have not been significant and he barely got 15 goals in the league last season which is a very poor record for Messi. We will hope to see a much better performance next season. Ronaldo also did not fare well in Manchester United, these two players had their best seasons in the Spanish la liga

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United have made an improved £43m offer for 24-year-old Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez in a bid to beat Arsenal to the Argentina centre-back's signature. What Martinez will decide in the end?
Amid intense speculation over 37-year-old Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo's future, Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has recognised the need to strengthen his team's attacking options, while the Dutchman remains keen on adding a right-back and centre-back. Personally, it seems to me that there is a very small chance that Ronaldo will stay at Manchter United. The question is which club can afford him?
Barcelona boss Xavi wants to re-sign France winger Ousmane Dembele, 25, who is a free agent after his contract at the Nou Camp expired. However, the club's sporting director Mateu Alemany would prefer a move for Leeds' Brazilian attacker Raphinha. What are the real chances of Dembele staying at Barcelona? Does Barcelona have the finances to keep him in the club?
And Barca have submitted a 'final offer' of £47m for 25-year-old Raphinha, who has also been linked with Chelsea and Arsenal. What are the real chances of Raphinha going to Barcelona?

Source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/62073386
Manchester United have shown seriousness in their move the Argentine centre back.  Other team like Arsenal have also showed interest in the player but seen their bid rejected as it didn't match the prize Ajax want for the player, hopefully we will knock the outcome by next week as Manchester United will focus now on trying to keep their key player or find a suitable replacement for him on time and it looks certain that Barcelona might get their target afterall after submitting a new bid of 47m for Raphinha but no reply yet on the bid so hopefully we will get  their feedback next week.
