Breaking News!

Carlo Ancelotti has agreed to a contract extension as Real Madrid coach until 2026 and with this, Carlo Ancelotti's future fate is clear and he will remain at Santiago Bernabeu for the next 2 seasons. It seems that Real Madrid fans have to be more patient if they want Xabi Alonso as the new coach and they have to accept that Carlo Ancelotti will continue with Real Madrid for quite a long time. Florentino Perez still believes in Carlo Ancelotti's performance as a coach and therefore he gave him this contract so that he can continue to manage the squad of young players at Real Madrid.

On the other hand, with this news, Real Madrid players definitely have to be more patient because we know that Carlo Ancelotti's coaching style is quite eccentric and often results in players being placed in inappropriate positions. But that is one of his strengths as an experienced trainer and there is no doubt about his success. Carlo Ancelotti still has the responsibility to deliver the La Liga or Champions League title this season and it would be an extraordinary thing if he succeeded in presenting it to Los Blancos.

But in fact, being a great player and also a club legend does not make the player successful when he becomes a coach and as with Steven Gerrard, I think there are quite a lot of failed coaches from England. Let's just say that those who have worked as professional coaches, such as Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney, have all failed in managing a club and this continues to create a bad record for their careers as coaches.

Now Steven Gerrard, who has also expanded to the Saudi league and become coach of El-Ettifaq, is also felt to be less capable of handling the squad of European players they have. Even though the competitive level of the league is still far from the EPL and he failed to at least bring Al-Ettifaq to the top 4 of the Saudi league. Actually the system is not as complicated as other top European leagues and the system in the Saudi league should be much easier for a coach, so I don't think that's an excuse.

Two teams from North London lost simultaneously to their opponents in last night's match and it was quite a crushing defeat when they needed full points to maintain their consistency. Arsenal and Spurs were very disappointing and were unable to beat their opponents in that match and even conceded goals in two different halves. I think here Arsenal seem to have lost their way even though they are very favored to win at home and again they couldn't win against West Ham. A humiliating defeat when they had the opportunity to move Liverpool back to the top of the standings and they had to accept a defeat that should not have happened.

As for Spurs, they should be able to win even though it was an away game against Brighton, even though De Zerbi's men have not been very consistent in the last few matches and it looks like Ange's squad is unable to beat Brighton. Spurs had conceded 4 goals before Veliez and Davies reduced the score to 4-2. I understand even if Spurs lose that match, but for Arsenal it feels very unreasonable and like they don't have a winning mentality.

It feels like it's still too soon for Hakan Çalhanoğlu to leave Inter and besides, he is still in his prime with Inter. Hakan Çalhanoğlu is still at a mature age and not too old so in one or two seasons he will still be worthy of being at Inter. The offer from Al-Hilal might be enough to attract interest from players his age but it doesn't look like that will apply to Hakan Çalhanoğlu, especially since he is the midfield maestro for Inter.

If he leaves Inter, I think coach Simeone Inzaghi will still have difficulty finding a replacement. So it's better to win all the titles first with Inter and especially for the champions league even though it's a difficult competition but he has to be able to make the most of it. But the main thing now is the Scudetto because Inter is now at the top and continues to be overshadowed by Juventus.

I still remember when Marseille were quite slumped in 12th place in the standings at the start of the season and indeed they did a good job before half the season was over. I think they have fixed the previous problems and also continue to carry out intensive training so that the results are commensurate with what they want. It certainly wasn't easy for Marseille because they managed to suppress their opponents at the end and at the same time overtook several other teams that were sitting above them.

But it is an extraordinary thing and in a little while they will be back to where they should be. Monaco did not get maximum results, but their previous defeat also made sense because they lost to Lyon and PSG, which incidentally are also big teams in Ligue 1, the rest are opponents that they should be able to win against. Maybe to overtake Lille, I think Marseille will be able to, but if they approach Brest, the difference in points is quite large. But usually a surprise team like Brest won't last long and it's just a matter of time before they lose consistency in the next few matches.

I agree that this was not Manchester City's best performance and if they were in their proper form they should have scored first and even closed the first half with two goals. But in fact, here it was Everton who managed to take advantage of Manchester City's less than convincing performance and as we know, it dealt quite a major blow to Pep Guardiola's squad in the first half.

Certainly Pep Guardiola was annoyed and angry with the performance of his players and in the dressing room he provided a new strategy so that Manchester City could be sharper in their attacks. The result was as we saw and they responded with 3 goals from Alvarez, Bernardo and Grealish. It is never too late for Manchester City to change its pattern of play and they are doing their job well to continue to be able to achieve better performance in the future.

Luckily I didn't enter the Al-Ettifaq vs Al-Hazm match and if I had said yes, my bet would have been finished from the start. I still can't believe they only drew 1-1 and this is another failure for Steven Gerrard as Al-Ettifaq coach. I think Al-Ettifaq will start to recover in this match because in the last few matches they have never won again and I think this will be the start of their revival.

But unfortunately they couldn't offer this to the fans who came to support him and this result also gave Steven Gerrard a red report and soon his fate would begin to be at stake. It is appropriate for Steven Gerrard to be fired because in fact as a coach he is not good enough and with the squad of European players he currently has he is not able to maximize it. On the other hand, I also heard news that Steven Gerrard wants new European players in January and this is actually not a problem of a lack of European players but it is just Steven Gerrard who cannot manage the squad well.

I think you don't pay much attention to Caicedo and maybe I don't mind if you disagree with me. As we know during this half season with Chelsea, I think he is a defensive midfielder who failed because he often made mistakes and conceded goals. Not just once or twice, but he did it repeatedly and it was quite detrimental to Chelsea. For more details, you can see the complete notes in the image above.

Even in his 20 appearances with Chelsea there is nothing he can be proud of other than getting a total of 5 yellow cards in active competitions and in terms of goals or assists he is also unable to do so. Well, I understand goals are not a priority for a defensive midfielder but at least he can contribute through assists. Just compare it with Rodri (Manchester City), even at a cheaper cost, he plays an active role in the defensive midfielder position at Manchester City and he also often contributes fully with goals and assists for important wins. I think that's enough and maybe Caicedo is the most overrated midfielder in the EPL and it was a failed purchase for Chelsea.

Girona's home win was undeniable and they were always strong, but against Real Madrid their home advantage was broken. But at least after the defeat at home they can still defend until now and the next challenge is against Atletico. I don't deny that Girona will have quite a difficult match in the next match, just like against Real Madrid and maybe they will find it quite difficult to win against Atletico and it will just end.

Several players from the two teams you mentioned are indeed the main weapons and I will add Stuani to the list and surely they will also join the list of goal scorers in that match. However, the prediction result is still unclear and the most likely thing is a draw and if that happens then Real Madrid will move a little more freely because they have a significant distance from Girona.

Juventus is not a typical defensive team and they are much more attacking than Roma. We all know that this is an important opportunity for Juventus to immediately overtake Inter from the top of the standings and they don't have time to provide more defense than attack. Allegri knows what his team has to do in the next match and they will aim for full points rather than just one point against Roma.

I'm sure Juventus can do it, especially if Roma concedes first then that could be a strong signal that Juventus will win and will even score another goal. Roma will not be able to withstand Juventus' attacks even though they are known for their strong defense and it seems the results are already visible with the readiness of each of these teams.

It's the same with me, I gamble just to increase my income and also just to buy snacks or go to entertainment venues. I don't think that gambling will be a main or viable source of income and even if I win big, I consider it a bonus income.

Maybe there are also people who depend on gambling as their main income and usually this is for people who have large capital and each time they bet the amount is not small. Meanwhile, for me, betting using around $3 to $10 is a satisfaction that I can do at any given time. But it all comes down to how they manage it and as a player who tries to make his fortune in gambling like me, that is not the main source of income.

The Gunners will certainly not waste their home advantage and indeed they are targeting the top spot through this victory against West Ham and again overtaking Liverpool. There is no doubt for Arsenal to win but it will definitely be by a narrow score considering that the opponent is West Ham who have also performed quite well so far. The Arsenal players will also be fine and there doesn't seem to be any problems so they will reassure the Emirati stadium public with 3 additional points.

On the other hand, Brighton vs Spurs is the most difficult match to predict because the possibility of these two teams winning is very large and perhaps a draw is also a worthy consideration. I did not include this match in my multibet because the risk of fluctuation was very large and could destroy my other betting list. So yes, I hope the best for both of them and I don't favor anyone in this match because both of them are worthy enough to win.

This is a phenomenon that we usually see in news papers or in the media that we often know about and indeed the crime rate is difficult to control. However, gambling addiction is not good, especially for yourself, and can even destroy your life in an instant. The importance of managing all the bad possibilities that should be stopped and also again, they must be able to stop gambling at the right time.

Prevention is good but sometimes it doesn't last long and each person has their own assessment of the addiction cases they experience. I think the importance of the people closest to them being able to warn them against gambling addiction is an important factor besides the advice you gave above. It's not easy to remind gambling addicts, but it's better than leaving them alone to face the problem.

Obviously it would be different and I agree with you. Xabi Alonso will not bother to train Real Madrid with the golden generation squad they have now and maybe Xabi Alonso will only make slight adjustments so that his game becomes neater. It's different from what Xabi Alonso has done at Leverkusen and it's purely because of his perseverance and also the potential he sees in his players so that his game is very beautiful and difficult to predict. What I still really don't expect is that Leverkusen this season has scored 81 goals in all competitions and it's still half the season. The number of goals scored by his players is extraordinary and I can't understand how Xabi Alonso can conjure his players to be so fierce in front of the opponent's goal.

Maybe I'm quite curious about Marseille's next journey because this team is still in 6th position and to reach a place like last season they have to be able to shift several teams above them. I mean their journey this time will not be easy but at least they are having a pretty good season and even though in their previous match they only drew against Montpellier but at least they still got 4 wins in the last 5 matches.

From January to early February next year, Marseille will face 3 quite troublesome opponents, namely Strasbourg, Monaco and Lyon. However, I am very optimistic that Marseille can beat Strasbourg, but not against Monaco and Lyon. The reason is that these two teams are also on the rise and especially for Lyon, even though their current position is still at the bottom of the board, fighting Marseille will certainly remain an arena for prestige between big teams in Ligue 1. Apart from that, I hope Marseille can do their best and don't let it happen. let your guard down with the team.

The match between the two teams from Catalan was indeed very exciting and as a bigger team with a long history they actually fell in front of a new team challenging for the La Liga title this season and it was definitely an unforgettable defeat for Barcelona. The Blaugrana should be able to take advantage of home advantage to stop the progress of one of the teams threatening their title this season but it seems that with the current squad they cannot match Girona's game. As a result, defeat was inevitable and they had to accept this result.

Real Betis is the team that has managed to stop the fast pace of the two teams currently competing to win the title and maybe it will be Barcelona's turn to get less than satisfactory results when they meet Real Betis at the end of January next year. Real Betis is very strong and they also try to give their best results against teams that are much stronger and I really appreciate their performance.

Chelsea has signed another young player and this time it is the turn of the Senegalese U17 player, Pape Daouda Diong, who will go to Stamford Bridge. He is a midfielder and it seems Chelsea are not quite satisfied with the options they have at the moment. Pape Daouda Diong will be part of Pochettino's important project and it is certainly hoped that he can provide a different color to the Blues' midfield.

I think the previous signing of Moise Caicedo was the biggest failure for Chelsea because the player who was priced at more than 100 million euros could not contribute for half a season with Chelsea and it is possible that this player will be projected to be a starter to replace him. There is no information regarding the costs and contracts that apply to Pape Daouda Diong at Chelsea and what is clear is that the costs are not cheap. Well, hopefully this time Pape Daouda Diong can give the Stamford Bridge public the expectations they deserve.

I hope that all the unseeded teams have a spirit that exceeds all the strength possessed by the big teams in the Champions League and as you said they have to prove it and don't be too fixated on fate that they will fall first. Everyone still has the opportunity to provide equal resistance and here Leipzig must do it from the first leg and if they succeed in doing so, of course Real Madrid will be quite under pressure in the second leg.

But that is provided that Leipzig can maintain a draw or at least have a difference of 1 goal on the aggregate of the first leg and that will increase their confidence in going to Santiago Bernabeu. It's difficult but they have to try and not have any regrets or give up from the first match. Of course, Real Madrid will always be challenged by a team like that and it will make them play more attractively.

After being made nervous by Chelsea's victory, I finally decided to cash out on my multibet and yes, at least I still got a decent profit. I will not continue with the Arsenal vs West Ham match which will take place today and will further secure the 3 matches that have already been won. I don't doubt that Arsenal won't win, but considering that Manchester City was even made difficult by Everton, my feeling is that it's better to bet here rather than later not meeting the expected results.

I bet with a handicap (-1) because I saw that the normal odds were so small and if Arsenal won by a narrow score it would be a waste of time. So that's what I thought so decided on that and later I will try betting on Arsenal again with the addition of a different match.

The level of player popularity also seems to have a big influence on the placement of these players and we cannot avoid the fact that Ronaldo's name is bigger than that of one of the leagues in Europe. Maybe that's what makes the assessment of all this and it is indeed a very good achievement at an age that is no longer young.

There is no need to doubt the two pairs from the two Bundesliga clubs this season because they have carried out major changes to create this attacking duo. But for Stuttgart it was indeed something that exceeded expectations. But despite all that there are no representatives from EPL or La Liga teams and perhaps this is more of a fairly easy league level.

That's right, that will be the last match of the year for Ronaldo and his competition will only be with Haaland. But unfortunately Haaland is currently suffering from an injury and even in last night's match he was not seen on the field. So whether Ronaldo or Haaland's final match this week (Haaland has also recovered from injury) will determine which one of them will win the award for the player with the most goals in 2023.
