Next seasons transfer market is really going to be a hot one,because every team is looking forward to adding to the present club.A team like Arsenal and Manchester United is in need of players at different positions in the team,and will dig deep into the transfer market to get those players.
Arsenal are in need of at least two attackers,and central midfielder that will pair with Partey and Xhaka,and also a very strong left back that will cover for Tierney.They will be  letting Nketiah and Lacazette go and a replacements will be signed.

I absolutely agree the transfer market is going to be crazy next season because this season the football has already been crazy. a lot of unexpected results have been seen in this season.

I am sure that teams are going to change their squad to avoid those unnecessary defeats. a lot of talks are going on about teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Liverpool, Dortmund, Manchester City, and obviously, how can we forget about Manchester United!

Liverpool still has to face Everton tomorrow in the EPL match. Everton is a team that almost slipped into the relegation zone. Liverpool has the opportunity to rest their players in this match to be better prepared for the first leg against Villarreal.
although the Everton game is also important, I think they can handle it by playing it safe enough. Liverpool has the motivation to get 2 trophies this season. and it is very possible to achieve at this time. Hopefully, Liverpool can perform optimally.
Do you really think Klopp will let his players rest and lose the slim chance for the title? I think they will go out with the A team and play brilliantly, Villareal fought strong, their opponents underestimated them and lost but Liverpool will certainly kick them out with no problem.

I really don't think that Liverpool is going to take things easy in the English Premier League because if they win there will be just 1 point behind Manchester City just like before and they will still have a really good chance of winning the English Premier League. I really think that the Liverpool squad is fit enough to play both the matches in English Premier League and Champions League.
so if not any special events occur I think Liverpool is going to play a consistent game in both matches.

That's right, Liverpool have been very consistent this season. especially after Villarreal made a surprise by making it into the semifinals of course Liverpool will be wary of them and with the quality that Liverpool have it will be very easy I think to be able to win against Villarreal.
No one expected to see Villarreal reach the semi-finals. They have been very tactful in the past matches and have performed well enough in the matches. And so if Liverpool wants to qualify for the final, they must be very careful. Winning against Villarreal will not be easy. But I am hopeful that I will see Liverpool in my final.
I miss it, I expect it, but if it succeeded I would be very happy
i like to see new and beautiful faces in soccer favor .. sometimes they happen and i have a lot of fun
the important thing is that they are able to offer a great show to us fans, Chelsea did it and although eliminated I give them a round of applause

I was actually thinking what if Bayern Munich was able to win against Villareal and they are the ones to face Liverpool in the next match. But unfortunately, that is not going to happen and I think it is obvious to predict that Liverpool is going to win this match. There have been some surprises in the Champions League this season and I am not going to be surprised if the surprises are still not over.

Many people haven't really been paying attention to Villarreal, they are actually thinking Liverpool will have it easy. Villarreal are very stubborn and not so easy  to predict their style of play. Their defense block is mostly intact throughout their game and they are compact when they lose the ball.
Maybe some people only see Villarreal in their domestic league so they forget that Villarreal has struggled so far in the Champions League so they can meet a big and strong club this season like Liverpool and have also beaten Bayern Munich in the Champions League
So Liverpool must be wary of Villarreal in the Champions League this season.

Actually, Villarreal did surprise a lot of people in this Champions League and I don't know if we have seen the end of it. Because I have said that Manchester City is worried about the English Premier League and that might cause some problems in their performance in the Champions League.

But the same thing can be said for Liverpool in my opinion, because actually, Liverpool is the one chasing Manchester City. But still, I think this should be a win for Liverpool.

Guardiola must make special guard on Benzema to prevent a goal against Man City, he had to use a tactic that had previously been used when coaching Barcelona, ​​when Barcelona faced Man United in the 2008-2009 UCL final, Guardiola made special guarding on Ronaldo. Guardiola put Carles puyol at right-back to stop Ronaldo movement, the tactic proved to be effective, Ronaldo could not do anything throughout the match. I think Guardiola will do the same tactic against Real Madrid.
Madrid does not only have Benzema, indeed turning off Benzema's movement will make Madrid's midfield a little difficult to score goals. but placing 1 special person to guard Benzema will also open a hole in the Man City defense.
The strength of Man City is different from Barcelona first. and the opponent this time is Madrid, this is a team with a winning mentality. It would be hard to beat him too.
Many gave Man City a chance to win, but I saw in the first leg they drew. most likely the result is a draw, maybe 1-1.

I am certain that Man City will face similar kinds of problems from Benzema if they don't guard him well. And after watching what Benzema has done in the Champions League this time I think they are surely going to take precautions about it. I know that it might be a little problematic in other aspects but right now stopping Benzema should be a high priority for Manchester City.

The tournament is prolonged for unnecessary reason, now we are having one match per day. More matches can be scheduled per day to finish the tournament in short time.
I agree with you. Unnecessary reasons IPL management has extended the time of IPL. At least two matches could be held every day. I don't know why IPL management did it. The IPL will be held for about two months seasons this season. It will become very boring. There was a need to focus on this aspect of management.
It will be more exciting and fun to watch a 20 days or a month long IPL then 2 months long IPL. Even world  cup won't take that much duration. For 2 months all international cricket is stopped for IPL, icc must have a look on that aspect also.
I agree with you’ll and I wasn’t happy when the schedule was announced, but I wonder if it’s been kept this way so player’s don’t get exhausted or was it covid fears that played a factor in this decision. Lastly I’m no longer watching full matches these days, and I might only watch full matches when the semis kick in so anyone else doing the same or you’ll are actually watching full matches daily?.

I think that the recent coronavirus situation might be a problem and also a cause for the Tournament to get prolonged. We all know IPL is a very important aspect of the whole cricketing world and I really think it is absolutely dumb for IPL to be played for that long.

Because obviously, that affects international cricket a lot. and if they are thinking that people are not watching two matches in a day for full and keeping one match a day is going to help I think they are making a mistake.

Bundesliga 2 is only 4 games left, shalke, Bremen and St Pauli, now have a great chance to be promoted to the Bundesliga next season, in week 31 there will be a meeting there will be a very interesting match, because Shalke will face Bremen, in the previous match Bremen was held to a draw by Nurnberg with a score of 1-1, while Shalke managed to beat Darmstadt with a landslide score of 2-5, if I look at the previous match, Shalke's chance to get 3 points is very large, my prediction is that Shalke can definitely beat Bremen, Shalke also plays in At home, it is certain they will play more confidently.

I think Schalke is surely going to be promoted to the Bundesliga. There is no way they are going to make any mistakes from now. I am expecting a promotion for Schalke, Werder Bremen. But, I am a little doubtful about st. Pauli and Darmstadt. I think that is still a chance for Darmstadt to get ahead of the table and get the promotion.
1968  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 17, 2022, 06:06:09 PM
Yes, it's really interesting for the Champions League at this time because a club like Manchester City, which has not experienced the Champions League title at all, meets a club that has won many Champions League trophies, namely Real Madrid.
So obviously it will be very interesting to wait for this match because two great clubs with a myriad of different experiences are competing in this Champions League.
Now the problem is if villarreal beat any other team instead of Bayern Munich I think it would have been easy to predict that they are going to lose their next match but since they have beat Bayern Munich it is hard to say that they will lose in their next match.
Real Madrid has really surprised almost everyone. but I think it is Benzema who has been giving them the lifelines and without Benzema, there will not be able to go through to the finals. so, I will expect the opponent to somehow keep Benzema quiet.
Villarreal has beaten Bayern Munich with strategy and tactics this club is very lucky, but Villarreal skills and tactics are still far below Liverpool when compared to Liverpool and their match will be plat at home to dominant Liverpool and the statistics will definitely be won by Liverpool.
Benzema has always been a savior for the club, from the past until now. Without that man Real Madrid is nothing

Actually, I agree with both of these points. Liverpool is a really strategic team and I think we all know that Liverpool does not spend a huge amount of money in any transfer market but they still produce great results almost every season. 

It will be really hard for Villarreal to beat Liverpool but it is also hard to predict anything in my opinion.

Benzema has always been a great asset for Real Madrid but I think in the past he had Ronaldo and Bale by his side and that's why we did not recognize what the man is doing for the team, but now it is quite evident.

So does it mean that there is something wrong with the captaincy or does it mean that it's absolutely the management's fault?
To be honest I really think it's a bit of both but I think the management is the main culprit here. The team needed a lot better players and players with a lot more potential rather than the players that they have got right now, and they did not get those players, that's why they are suffering right now.
The other thing is if actually the coach and the captain had some say while the team was being decided I think it is also their fault. It is undeniable that the result it is just reflecting that.
May be the extra pressure, i was just making an observation i saw, when Kohli was the Indian captain he was not doing well as a captain in the IPL even when they had the best team available and now Rohit Sharma is the Indian captain and he is struggling as a captain in the IPL.

Actually, this could be one logic behind this. But to be honest this franchise as a whole did not work perfectly this season and they're paying for it.

I actually miss one captain who could stay really cool under this type of pressure who is Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He made a lot of controversial decisions but in the end, he made them work.
Anyway, I think Mumbai Indians need to change things really quick otherwise this season is lost for them in my opinion.

Sevilla  vs Real Madrid

Looking forward to watching the match between Sevilla vs Real Madrid. Real Madrid is a strong team. They are playing very well in both the Champions League and La Liga. However, Sevilla played well against Granada in the last match. So maybe Sevilla's players will still be confident today. At the same time, since this is Sevilla's home match, I hope we can see better gameplay from Sevilla today.
What do you think? Which team is interested in betting?

Real Madrid is a very strong team and they have proved that in the Champions League. Sevilla is also in a good run of form in my opinion. Even though we all expect Real Madrid to win this match I really think that Real Madrid is going to play this smart and not play their main 11 in this match because they know that the main target is "Champions League" now and they are in a really comfortable lead in the La Liga standings. So, I don't think they are going to raise kept playing their main 11 here.

Pochettino are getting closer to close his involvement as coaches at PSG, while the management desire to choose Zinedine Zidane as their new head coach. It's good news, I simply trust its valid and they will designate Zidane to be Parisians new coach. But, in where Pochettino will go? Because Manchester United job has been occupied already.

I think it will be really great for PSG if they can actually get Zinedine Zidane to be e the new coach. He is someone who can actually manage a team that has a lot of superstars in the squad. as far as the job of Mauricio Pochettino is concerned, I really don't think that he will be called upon by any top-tier teams at the moment after what he has done with PSG.

It's really a very difficult match for us to know who will win, especially the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match, because both have the same chance to win. Meanwhile, for the Liverpool vs Villarreal match, I think many people will predict Liverpool will come out victorious, so if you look at the strength of these two teams, it should work that way unless Villarreal can give something surprising like when they got rid of Bayern Munich.

Ashwin do deserve mention in this list. In early his career he also faced similar charges but this fucker is engineer so he came up with the so called ridiculous solution. He started wearing freaking full sleeves to avoid any unnecessary attention in start of his career, i am not making this shit up as these are actually his own words. No wonder everyone hates his mf ethical mind.

PS : Big fan of Ashwin.
Was not aware of this, in his youtube channel he talks openly about things he faced and share everything and may be he shared this in his youtube channel. Even with full sleeves now it is easy to identify with all the cameras available  Cheesy.

I actually know about this and also remember. At that time Technology was not so great and they could get away with certain things. and this was amongst one of them. He is a good bowler no doubt about that, he thought it really great that wearing full sleeves is going to take away unnecessary attention from his bowling action. But it is also an aspect now that's really hard because almost everything is going to be monitored really closely.

Really you want to replace Rohit from captain?
A match is won by team’s effort, not on a single player.
And don’t forget people like you were cheering for him when he won 5 titles of IPL.
Looks like the captaincy curse, Virat Kohli was the Indian captain for a long time and he never won an IPL title and now RCB might win a title but he is no longer the captain and when he won 5 IPL titles he was not the India captain and now he is not able to produce that magic nor even able to win a game for them  Cheesy.
The ones who need to blame here is the MI management for not selecting potential players for the team.
Let’s all hope now, this season is not for Mumbai Indians.
Hoping next time Rohit will score a good innings without some pressure.
Sure the management has to be blamed but the captain and the coach has the ability to choose the team during the auction and they failed and hence they are struggling.

So does it mean that there is something wrong with the captaincy or does it mean that it's absolutely the management's fault?
To be honest I really think it's a bit of both but I think the management is the main culprit here. The team needed a lot better players and players with a lot more potential rather than the players that they have got right now, and they did not get those players, that's why they are suffering right now.

1975  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia Was Prepared to Withstand Sanctions. Why Wasn't Europe Prepared to Impose on: April 16, 2022, 09:40:23 PM
Yeah, after reading this and seeing the graphs it really seems russia was planning this since very long? What if everyone today is just blind folded since the last Ukriane attack 8 years ago? Russia might have built the internal strategy right after they backed up the previous war. They might have projected the whole plot for example, how europe will react with the war breakout, how america will react which is most rival country for them or other way round.
The steadiness is due to Russia's richness in the fossil resources. They know world wants them and specifically the neighbouring European countries. Europe surely created too much dependency on the Russia and all sudden the they went rogue.
I think it is one of those strategies for war where you press the most weak point of others and then torn them inside out.
This isn't something they "planned", I mean of course they probably knew what they would do "in case..." type of situation, but they lived with this idea basically. Ukraine had places where there were plenty of Russians, and places where basically Russia is loved like crazy, and they wanted to get those places. Obviously it doesn't make sense for Ukraine to give their lands to Russia, so this means both knew that they would be in a war one day or another.

This doesn't mean they knew when it would happen, but they definitely knew that one day it would happen. If you consider that as planned, then it was planned, but I would say being ready, and not planned. Planned means they aimed at doing this, being ready means they would if something happened but won't if that won't happen.

I also could not agree that Russia had planned the war long ago. You could say that there was a prediction of a war going on between Russia and Ukraine over the issues.
Not only Russia or Ukraine but also full international politics could predict that war was imminent.

Russia had already predicted the war and realized what sanctions could be imposed on it.
And maybe that's why he's ready to face all the sanctions.
It is the countries that have imposed sanctions, but in some cases, they will be also face problems.

E.g.
1. We know how rich Russia is in natural gas and fuel oil. Now European countries can cut gas and fuel imports to hurt Russia's economy. But they will suffer. The oil crisis will hit some countries because oil and gas imported from Russia meet one-third of the country's demand. And alternative routes other than imports from Russia have been considered. But finding an alternative road is not so easy. Until then, the countries will face many problems. Especially Germany.

2. Russia can be called food grain and reserves. And if their food grain exports are also banned, there will be food crises in many countries.

I had recently been thinking about how really safe bitcoins or/and other alt coins are when stored in your wallet.
With fiat currency, financial institutions; mostly banks go all out with the notion that their institutions are safe and their vaults are top notch yet they still fall prey to bank robbers who would cart away valuables from the vault.
How safe then are the wallets used in storing coins? And if they could at any time and in any way be compromised hence losing your bitcoins

Bank is centralized they can size your money anytime without showing any reason.
Bitcoin is decentralized, no one have the power to size your bitcoin or lock your bitcoin. it is only you who is responsible for your coins.
A software wallet or hardware wallet just gives you a private key to separate you from others. until you keep this private key secure your funds are 100% secured, no one have the power even Satoshi Nakamoto the creator of Bitcoin will never access your funds without private key Wink.

Without Bitcoin we would have to invest in the stock exchange where 2% dump anxiety leads to hair loss. but in bitcoin 30% pump/dump is usual thing.

Rennes and Monaco currently have a gap of 6 points and also, Rennes is currently in 3rd place which is also a pretty good place to get the UCL ticket despite having to go through the qualifying round. But yes, if Rennes can win the match then obviously Rennes will be able to take over the 2nd position currently placed by Marseille, at least if their points are equal then Rennes will be on top or 2nd place because Rennes is leading in goals count. This is a tight match because even the favorite team still gets big odds, which means that the favorite team in this match does not guarantee to win.
Although I call the Rennes team a favorite considering the home team. But the home team does not win all the matches. In this match, the team that can perform well on the field will win. Because now the two teams are almost equally strong. However, the Rennes team remained unbeaten in the last 7 matches. They may want to maintain this continuity. However, the match seems to be more likely to be a draw. The match will probably be drawn 1-1
I think Rennes is in better form than Monaco. And I also think that the match is equally important for both the teams because if Monaco wins they will go ahead multiple sports in the point table and if Rennes wins they will get closer to the top two spots. Judging by everything I also agreed that a draw might be on the cards for this match. Otherwise, I think Rennes will be the team to win this match.

I think that Rennes is still going to go into the match with an attacking mentality and they will try to get all three points from that match. And they will also have a slight advantage because they will play in home conditions.
But, it is not going to be easy because Monaco will also be determined to win this match and get ahead in the point table.

I agree, a draw can be the outcome of this match. But with that attacking mentality of Rennes, I highly doubt that it is going to be a draw.

Arsenal will need to get maximum points against Southampton this weekend. They cannot afford to loose any of of the remaining games. Arsenal need to respond against Southampton, adding that Tottenham Hotspur are now in the driver’s seat to finish in the top four. They have lost two games on the bounce in the league against Crystal Palace and Brighton; many will owe it to the injury of their key players in Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney and have subsequently slipped to fifth in the table. They are on a downward trajectory, and anything less than a win against Southampton will make things harder for them in the final stretch of the season.

If Arsenal wins this match they will still be in the 5th place because the whole difference between them with Tottenham is too big. But then Arsenal will have a better chance of going ahead because Tottenham has a match against Liverpool in the upcoming weeks and if Tottenham loses that match Arsenal will certainly have a chance to finish in the top four.
So, I agree that Arsenal cannot even think about dropping points in this match.

For today match Real Sociedad vs Betis and i think gap points between them and Atletico is not too far so there is a chance for both of teams to taking over Atletico position on 4th and regarding the match so far during this season Real Sociedad was very strong at their home ground even few months ago Atletico lose against them so after seeing these records i think Sociedad had good opportunity to get full points than Betis and seems pick for them is good choice as my bet
Based on their past matches, Real Sociedad has demonstrated a good results in this tournament than Betis team which their performance was not too good for their fans in this tournament. Real Sociedad defenders are fully prepared not to allow Betis players to achieve any goal from this match because they understood all the tactics Betis players are using in this tournament to achieve victory. Real Sociedad will definitely achieve victory from this match because they are fully prepared to defeat Betis 3-1 for the favour of Real Sociedad.

Even though it looks like one team is better than the other, both teams are almost in the same position for a reason. I think they are both the same caliber of teams even though it seems a little different from the outside.

But in terms of domination, I think Real Betis is ahead of Real Sociedad. And if I am not wrong I think their conversion rate is also good than Sociedad. So they should have a better chance even though they are playing in away conditions.
