I don't know where you got the information from that Asernal is standing at fourth position which is not true and at the same time Asernal present position is still second and I don't think anything is going to change that before the end of the season.

Arsenal has done well this season and right from the start of the season, Asernal has played the best of football up until they lost a few games that let them slide down to the present position, even though I am sure that Asernal will make it back to the top of the league but I am sure that Asernal will not go below third position.
Arsenal closed this season in 2nd place under Manchester city. All efforts made by Arsenal this season should be appreciate it properly because they are a squad inhabited by young players and they are able to create interesting competition at the top of the standings which makes this season very interesting in every game. For next season I think Arsenal will start a new era and a new enthusiasm to win a trophy in the competition they participate in. What's more, Arsenal will play in the Champions League next season, maybe Arsenal presence in the Champions League will provide stronger competition for other teams.

I think one of the factors for Arsenal weakness at the end of the season due to several of their main players who experienced a decrease in performance due to the injuries they had experienced. Wait, there's something interesting for us to follow about the Arsenal in the transfer window, I think the stickers are the main gap for Arteta in the transfer window.

Arsenal started the season the best way and they really did great efforts to get the title but unfortunately the majority of players haven't big experience and that's the main reason of this failure, arteta seems to be a great future coach snd he should not leav arsenal anytime soon

Why does it feels like Bitcoin is a better fit for store of value than a payment solution?

Is payment the substantial use case of crypto? If yes then where do you think Bitcoin stands? It cost me 0.20$ to make transactions on other payment solution that's not Bitcoin and it costs me over 1$ to make transaction with Bitcoin, isn't the cheaper always the better choice?

Since some crypto coins have cheaper transaction fee doesn't this make such coins a better fit for payment solution than Bitcoin?.and Bitcoin a better fit for store of value

Bitcoin transaction fees are higher than other networks and it's value is unstable and that's really an obstacle for Bitcoin but when we compare with fiat the transactions in crypto are cheaper and easier, Bitcoin is the most famous crypto coin and that's the reason why companies use it as a method of payment first but with the time we will definitely see more coins and more networks

I don't doubt Manchester City will win this final either, but it's football and it's only one game. The result could turn out to be the opposite of what was expected. For example a red card or a penalty. Inter are not a weak team either and have played well in recent games. I think this final will be very interesting.

There are so many metricts that will be greatly affecting the performance from the club but my concern was on the starting line up. In my opinion that if manchester city gonna use same line ups like when it was facing manchester united in the final of FA cup.
Intermilan can learn from manchester united. Intermilan just need to be even better in the defensive line compared with manchester united.

Im sure that if intermilan gonna use lukaku instead of dzeko as this guy is always able helping team mates to give free space while he was holding one or more players on his line.

He was having capability to make it even better compared with haaland in term of holding its opponents and make its team mates get free space.


I don't think we can compare between fa cup final and UCL final, no matter what the line up will be i believe the club will have better motivation and will be more realistic against inter Milan, i believe inter mission will be very complicated and they should focus on the defense if they want to make the surprise and get the trophy

@Prince Malik I too believe that Inter will try and hurt City on the counter but City have gotten themselves under unnecessary pressure with the talks of winning the treble and sometimes player’s can underperform due to such pressure. Furthermore people are definitely underestimating Inter and thus if Inter can take a lead then it’ll become very interesting to watch and hopefully they can then go on to win the match too.

Not just normal football fans but also bookmakers, the ods are extremely in man cit favour and i never expected to see such odds to be honest, i looked for previous finals and the ods was never being like this in a champoins league final

Im really sad about what happened with messi in his last match with psg, despite what happened and what he did this player stay a treu legend and he don't deserve such humiliation, also he is not the reason of the club failure in the champoins league because this team is having troubles in this competition even before messi joined the club

There was actually a good effort by Hamburg in the first half and they finished it 1-0 ahead as well. This must have given them some hope for a comeback even though it was still looking really difficult. But it didn't take Stuttgart a long time to end their hopes with consecutive three goals. Stuttgart really showed how much they want to stay in the Bundesliga.

Hamburg failed in their second attempt in a row to promote to the Bundesliga. They just need to work harder to not leave their job to chance from now on. They must find a way to finish in top 2.
3-0 in the first leg and now 1-3 despite hamburg leading first through the quick goal , they failed to maintain the coneback spirit till the end of the match , if only they can keep up that good work for a little longer , the dramatic comeback might occured and the wait to get back to bundesliga might come true.

Too bad, hamburg haven't that winning mentality and for multiple times niw they are in total failure.

Hamburger started the match very well and they managed to get a goal in the first minutes of the match but they didn't created many opportunities in the remaining minutes of the first half, Stuttgart coaching was very good and they managed to score 3 goals in the second half and easily remain in the bundesliga

Everton team was in real danger this season until the last round i did not expect this poor performance from them with the good squad they had i think their main problem was their offense they only managed to score 34 goals in 38 games which is really poor for a team with such history i hope they correct their mistakes in the next season and they sign a good manager and some good players.
Everton has a very good squad already, so I was expecting them to perform very well this season, but the season went poorly for them. I think they will improve in the next season since I believe they have realized their mistakes, but I was surprised to see their performance decline this season. However, I knew from the beginning that the season would be difficult for them. I think Everton needs more new smart players and a manager because they already have a very good squad.
The same way Everton had poor performance and manages to qualify for the premier league the next season was the same thing that happened to them last season(2021/2022) when Lampard was their coach. They were performing badly at the beginning of the season until the time they employ the service of Lampard as a coach towards the end of the season, who now helps them as of then in qualifying for the premier league this season(2022/2023). And they played their best to make sure they stay in the premier league till the next season.

If Everton doesn't try to work on their performance and sign new quality players by next season, I don't think they will have the same luck they had in the last two premier league seasons(escaping relegation).

Yes lampard was very bad as a coach and to be honest i don't think his career as a coach will be successful, the administration did a right decision to bring a new coach and we all saw the results and how Everton managed to beat clubs like arsenal and escape the relegation

I know Napoli got a rich owner and he can have enough money to make Osimhem stay in Napoli for the next season and since Victor Osimhem is a young player he can easily be sold for a expensive price in the next season if he improves himself. But since there are many tempting offers for Osimhem in the next season from teams like Real Madrid I think Napoli should start seeking an alternative player to replace Osimhem next season, otherwise, they will have problems just like what happened in the game against Ac Milan they failed without Osimhem.

Napoli should not make the same mistake as many other clubs, they must keep their best players and not give up on them easily, they should build a club that always play for titles not just one or two years and i believe Napoli deserve to be always in the top clubs

Valladolid team was relegated in the last round since they were unable to beat getafe despite needing the points and playing at home their performance wa really disapointing, they had 15 shots and none of them were on target they let their fans down at the most important moment.
Yes, their performance was very disappointing. Their priority was to win because to stay in La Liga they really needed three points, but they failed to get them. Next season they will be forced to return to the segunda division, with Espanyol and also Elche. But I hope they won't be there so long, one season will be enough for them to improve their performance.
If they wanted to return to Laliga by the following season, they had to drastically improve their performance.
Valladolid and Getafe's encounter was similar to whose club wins moves to the relegation zone. Getafe only needed a draw from the game to stay above the relegation zone, while Valladolid only needed a win. Getafe succeeded in doing that to hold Valladolid to a draw match at home.

Valladolid did everything they could to defeat Getafe in their last game in Laliga in order to move at least one step above Almeria and Getafe, but it didn't work out as they had hoped.

Valladolid wasn't efficient enough in this match and they needed to be more realistic in the last touch, they did more than 15 goal attempts but none of them on goal and that's show at wich point they wasn't concentrating

I love Erik Ten Hag approach to management of Manchester United. When he first came he never wanted anyone to distract him. Even when Ronaldo wasn't available and agents making moves for his transfer, he never bothered. He tried to discover one weakness of the team which was laziness and he immediately worked on that and made the boys to be playing high pressing football. He us very dedicated and ambitious, that is why he is getting results. Manchester United should give him more few quality signings and watch him lift the EPL title.
Erik Ten Hag does have firmness in every rule that he applies where the main thing is the discipline of his foster children in heeding the rules that he has implemented. It's not half-hearted if one of them violates this then the punishment will immediately be given to both the players. Thus Erik Ten Hag performance in his first season with Manchester United was quite impressive because Erik Ten Hag was able to bring Manchester United to finish in the top 3 this season. Even though this is quite impressive in Manchester United appearance this season, they need to overhaul the squad in the transfer market, where Erik needs several players who have good quality to support their performance next season, especially in the Champions League.

Manchester United return to the top of the standings seems to indicate that the Red Devils will be a team to be reckoned with next season. Manchester United only needs a sticker who has a good mentality in scoring goals in every game and that is the job that Erik has to do in the transfer market.

That's very true, erik ten hag preformence in the first season was awesome in my opinion and i believe if the administration bring more quality players to the club next season the united will play for the EPL trophy next year, this is the best season for united for a long time and that's a good thing for the young coach

~~~
Chelta Vigo, being a 13th position team, are very strong and beating famous team Barcelona 2-1 was a huge achievement for them.  And maybe it happened because of their luck. but this match could not affect Barcelona. because Barcelona is still in the first position in the points table with 88 points and Real Madrid in the second position has 78 points with a gap of 10 points between these two teams. so the result of today's match does not matter for Barcelona. but it might hurt their reputation a bit
Barcelona's reputation damaged by defeat? I don't think so, but maybe Celta Vigo have ruined Barcelona's good record with their two goals during the match. Barcelona, ​​​​on the other hand, may no longer be affected by the outcome of that match even though their record of goals conceded has increased to 20 goals in 38 match. Barcelona ended this season very well where they managed to become the strongest team in defense, have the sharpest strikers, and have a 10 point advantage over their rivals.

Lewandowski has become La Liga's top scorer this season with 23 goals. It's been a great season for Lewandowski and he is the best signing so far this season. I hope he can do it again next season because his rival Benzema has left Real Madrid.

The victory with a final score of 2-1 against Celta Vigo was enough to silence the league champions, Barcelona. However, on the other hand, the defeat did not change anything or cause any losses for Barcelona, except for potentially damaging Barcelona's good record against their previous wins. Nevertheless, it became crucial for Celta Vigo to distance themselves from the relegation zone in the Spanish league.

After settling la Liga title Barcelona players really lost the motivation to do good matches and their results was really fraurstaring, but like you said the results don't have any effect on the standings, Barcelona players played very well in the majority of matches and the results in the last matches don't mean anything

I am sure Newcastle in the next season will battle for the first spot in the premiere judging from the performance in this season even though their hard rough history we're able to build up to this very level where they gave Manchester United a tough runoff for the position but eventually lost it to them at the end, being so that the present club condition has become a pointer to what we can expect in the coming season if all things being equal for Newcastle till that time.
in my opinion, look at the way Newcastle has revamped his team after being bought by the Arab prince. Even though there is a lot of money, it seems that the intention to build a team is very good because you don't spend a lot right away. they try to take advantage of existing players and buy cheap players and high potential young players like Alexander Isak. for next season it looks like they are targeting a slightly easier trophy like the FA or carabao and trying to compete at the top, if for the EPL champion it doesn't seem like their target is to win the UCL. they don't seem to want to build a team instantly without a process. I salute the management of Newcastle

But whatever it is. With the rise of Newcastle like this, it will be increasingly difficult for the big fours like Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool to compete in the EPL. We know that the four teams have been under the shadow of Man City for three seasons. Now it has started to enter a new rival, namely Newcastle, which will be even more interesting in the EPL next season.

Newcastle did a great season and it seems that things will be better for them if they bring more players this summer, premier league is already full of good clubs if Newcastle continue like this we will see a better premier league with though competition for the title

According to the statistics of the last 5 matches, the difference between these two teams is not much. Because Juventus have won just one of their last 5 matches while Milan have won two of their last five. However, both teams have lost three matches. Milan is trying to keep their winning streak which is a good sign. With a win in their last match, they occupy the 4th place in the points table with 67 points. On the other hand, Juventus is in the 7th position. There is not much difference in the points table between Milan and Internazionale. This team is in third position with 69 points.
Juventus are in a slump and they can't do more for this season. Milan may be very lucky because they are at the current point thanks to the problems faced by Juventus but still, if Milan fail to win their last two games then they will compete with Atalanta and also Roma to fight for 4th place in the standings. Apart from that all juventus have to restart at the start of next season and they can't be left behind like this season just because of the problems they caused themselves. I hope we can see more fair competition next season to make Serie A attractive again.

That's true, milan was very lucky to have a champoins league spot for next season, the competition was very though and Juventus did well in the season and didn't wasted many points but because of the punishment they will get a European league spot in the best case

It's not about Real Madrid, it's about Benzema's decision. I think Real Madrid have offered him a new contract, but apart from that Benzema has also had big offers with big salaries from non-European teams. Regardless of everything that happened, I hope that Benzema will have to decide for himself whether he wants to stay or choose to play in another team next season. I know it's a difficult decision especially because Real Madrid also want him to stay for next season.
I heard a rumor that Benzema got an offer of 1-year extension of his contract. So, he can play until 2024 if he wants to accept the offer from Real Madrid. But if Benzema wants a long-term contract duration, it is difficult to get an extension in Real Madrid. As far as I know, Real Madrid only offers 1-2 years contracts for old players. If Benzema wants more than 2 years of contract duration, he can leave Real Madrid and accept the offer from a Saudi club. The are rumors stated that a Saudi club offered him a big salary and may guarantee a long-term contract duration as well. It's all up to Benzema for the decision, if he still wants to play at a high level of the football game, he must easily to decide stay at Real Madrid.



I really don't want to see benzema playing for a saudi club, I don't even want to see him leaving real Madrid because this player still have many things to give to the club in my opinion, but thr club phylosophy is to always search for young players so i believe benzema will leave this summer

especially for management because by carrying out a major overhaul with expensive players and changing coaches quickly is just like a double-edged sword because apart from being a good thing, on the other hand this can also be very bad.
I think it's really bad for a club to be changing coach frequently, it's going to affect the clubs performance, the players won't really get to understand each other, each coach will always come with his own tactics and pattern, so changing coach frequently will make players not to understand each other. I can say it that the first mistake Chelsea made was sacking Tuchel. That was when I noticed that Chelsea problem started from, they should have just given Tuchel Enough time, but Chelsea management was impatient and they went ahead to sack Tuchel, since then Chelsea performance have been getting worst even after getting new coach, changing of coach anyhow is really bad for the club.

Chelsea had many mistakes during this season and other previous seasons, Tuchel had well performed there and he had amazing results in the champions league when he was working there but instead of keep working with him, they started working with other managers and coaches like Potter while Potter could never have a good performance in Chelsea.
For a great team like Chelsea, they need a great coach too not someone Potter, but we should see how Pochettino is going to perform.

Yes that's exactly one of the reasons of Chelsea current situation, changing coach everytime is a very bad thing to do especially in the EPL where competition is very though, Chelsea should learn from their mistakes and start building the club again

consistency and mentality are needed to overshadow the whole season in order to become champions, Manchester City have that while Arsenal do not therefore it is very appropriate for Manchester City to win the Premier League this season.
It's quite unfortunate indeed when Arsenal were able to top the standings for a very long time but they failed to become champions but they had to accept that because it was the team's own fault for not being able to be consistent at important times.

Arsenal needed to be consistent at all times while competing for the Premier League title, which they lost to Manchester City. There was some kind of lost priority and sense of mistrust in the club, which caused many players to lose that confidence. I believe they lost what they needed most in the final minutes rather than losing other less critical things.  They've learned a valuable lesson, and I'm confident they'll implement it over soon.
I think Arsenal were consistent and also had that winning mentality during the course of the just concluded English Premier League campaign. They played like a team who were hungry for the title more than any other team in the league until the sometime in March.
The problem Arsenal had if you ask me was that lack of depth in the sqaud. Their contending counterpart Manchester City on the other hand has a sqaud whose second XI can beat any team in the league and that I think was why they win the league ahead of Arsenal
[/quote

That's very treu, arsenal team was doing great in the majority of the season and everyone was thinking this squad can finally bring back arsenal to the EPL title but unfortunately for them everything start running on another direction, they wasted 4 points against Liverpool and west ham after being ahead in the score with two goals and that's show that this team wasn't really concentrated in the last 10 matches of the EPL]

Today roma will play the European league final against sevella, this match is very hard to predict and betting on this match is very risky im my opinion and everyone should be very careful on their bets, personally i expect roma to get the title but it will not be an easy match for both clubs

Yes, indeed they still have the chance to finish in the top 7 positions, but the competition there is very tight, they have to compete with 4 other teams, such as Rayo Vallecano, Girona, Athletic Club and Osasuna and also the opponent they will face in the final match will be Real Sociedad which they will not easily defeat.

But we are just talking realistically now, their chances in the Europa League are also big and there they will definitely be in the Champions League if they can become champions, and logically they will prefer to prioritize the Europa League compared to La Liga. But we'll see in the final match which will take place in a few hours, whether they will be able to win the match or not. And the results are not in favor of Sevilla, they will focus on their matches in La Liga.
They will need to win and hope that all their competitors who are ahead of them will lose points, to be honest, it is clear that the probability is too small for Sevilla to have at least some chance to rise higher. They will certainly bet on today's match against Roma, this will be their last chance, we can say that they have burned all the bridges and there is another way for them to win this final. But the dominance of Sevilla in the EL is also tired and I would like to see other teams that are able to win, if Mourinho manages to win with Roma in the final it will be a very big achievement.

I don't really think sevella team is aiming to improve their position in the standings because their focus is on the European league final, also they are away from European competesions spots so there is no point on getting better position
