After Robert Lewandowski left Bayern Munich in the summer of 2022, Bayern Munich failed to sign a replacement for the Poland striker and it really affected the team's performance last season and that's why since the arrival of Harry Kane, Bayern Munich has been one of the strongest teams in Europe.
Bayern are currently better than they were last season without Harry Kane and with the presence and effect of the English national team captain, Thomas Tuchel's side are favourites to win major honours this season.
since Lewandowski left, I dont think Bayern Munich is having any problems, I mean their performance is still the same, they just almost failed to get to the top of the standings when they had to compete with Dortmund and I think Kane presence might really influence Munich future in trying to get a title in the UCL like we did. talked about before because Kane is one of the best strikers who can be relied on even though he has had to adapt, but this player is very professional and quickly develops chemistry with other players and gives encouragement to other players and coach Tuchel to be able to try to win titles in several competitions.

So now is every player who is impressive now worth 100m? I think this value (100m) is so underrated nowadays, any player who is hot for just a season suddenly carries the 100m price tag nowadays and i think it’s bad. Ivan Toney is a good striker that can still improve but until then i don’t think he is worth 100m just yet. This is why we see a lot of 100m flops nowadays because they are being overhyped.
100M seems to be the normal price for any team that wants to sell their top player. Ivan Toney may not be worth that price to you, but to Brentford he is worth that price because he is one of their best players. Also if clubs like Brighton could sell Moises Caicedo for that price and West Ham for around that price too, Brentford will try to push their luck. Ivan Toney is a goal scorer for Brentford, so that price reflects their interest that they are not so much in a hurry to sell him off.
Ivan Toney last season was being an Brentford top scorer so he is important player for Brentford and you can see Brentford performance without him this season it was compeletely messed up because there was no other players who can able to being an his replacement at the team and if i am not mistaken Brentford don't want to losing Toney this winter so that's why they provide high price to those who want him and Ivan Toney current transfer value was not more than 70 millions and obviously 100 millions is overpriced because there is no guarantee Toney will be able to performing well if Chelsea bought him and i think Chelsea should look for other players who had cheaper price
I really understand how talented Ivan Toney is at Brentford and I admit that this player has a quality playing style but unfortunately I dont believe that if he goes to Chelsea it will be better because a player talent will be determined by who the coach is, whereas Chelsea is currently in bad situation and whether Pochettino can retain Toney talent at Brentford when he moves to Chelsea.

It also makes sense if Brentford tries to give a slightly higher price because without this player this team would be very bad without maximum achievements.
2023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think if you have a lot of money its hard to satisfy your ego in gambling on: November 03, 2023, 10:04:55 AM
What do you think, if I have millions I will be satisfied betting thousands of dollars for fear of addiction that will lead to losing my fortune, but I really don't know if I will reach that level of having millions and still be moderate in gambling.


There's no fixed answer when it comes to the amount of a wager. It still depends on personal preference because there are millionaires who find the excitement even when betting $100 per bet. So, we can't really make a general rule based on a specific amount, as everyone has their own level of satisfaction.

Personally, at my current level, I'm not yet a millionaire (hopefully, I will be someday), and I find it thrilling to wager around $50 per bet on sports. Most likely, it will increase when I reach the millionaire stage, haha! I'm thinking maybe $1,000 per bet? I don't know.Smiley
yep, that very reasonable and not necessarily rich people bet large amounts or even small gamblers also not necessarily bet small amounts in fact many small gamblers try to bet large amounts because its all about the satisfaction of each bettor not just about money. and if you have the ability to bet $50, thats okay, the most important thing is that you enjoy it, feel satisfied with the results you get and are able to take responsibility for all the choices you choose and everything you plan, this is the best for you and enjoy it.

Maybe you mean that Manchester United needs to be patient in reaping the current process, but the fans don't want to see Manchester United continue to experience decline and everyone blames Erik Ten Hag for everything because Manchester United progress depend on him.
Even the Manchester United players appear to be losing patience with Ten Hag, not to mention the fans. Watching Manchester United's recent matches, it seems as though the players on the field lack the motivation to run, let alone the determination to play their best.
It does not have any effect because now it will only worsen the condition in the dressing room of Manchester United at this time.
This is clearly getting worse because after all, with their current condition, they should try to integrate. Indeed, Ten Hag is also the one who is most to blame because this is his responsibility as a coach but as long as the club still hasn't decided anything it means they also have to respect the current situation.

But questioning the condition of Manchester United is also complex because all forms of problems ultimately affect performance.  
discussing Man United and its bad things is like writing a long article which will be meaningless because on the one hand it is a fact that Ten Hag is responsible for all this bad things but however Man United situation has to be like this with the condition of the players being unclear and several problems continuing to be big is what causes MU to not recover quickly and I really understand most people are annoyed with this ugliness but let give Ten Hag room to prove until the end of the season if it still fails without giving a good ending maybe we have the right to criticize Ten Hag.

TBH, I am not a MU fan, but as a football lover I feel sad to see a football team that once had glory and it all just disappeared because of a mistake on the part of the coach and players.
2025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stop the self entitlement claims on others gamblers winnings. on: November 03, 2023, 08:57:40 AM
a common occurrence that often occurs when a gambler wins big and donates a little money to other people but still feels that it is not equivalent to what he got and gives a lot of bad criticism and it happens not only in gambling, I have experienced this when bullish arrives my assets became higher in price and I suddenly had a lot of money and tried to give someone the amount I thought was appropriate but it turned out to be a problem because he knew the amount I got so he seemed to want to ask for more than I gave but in a way the bad ones give harsh criticism but I consider it just nonsense, the most important thing is my good intentions.

In this case, I sometimes relate to how important it is to secret gambling activities. when you get a big win, no one will know and no one will beg in any way.

Real Madrid seems to have become dependent on Bellingham this season, otherwise they will always have difficulty winning matches. Bellingham of course likes to do everything to make his team win the match, but if Real Madrid relies too much on his performance and goal opportunities to win, then I'm sure they will have a very difficult time winning if the opposing team keeps a close guard on Bellingham throughout the match.

Real Madrid is the favorite team in every Champions League season, I admit that's true. But since several Premier League teams have broken the dominance of La Liga teams in the Champions League, I think Real Madrid's chances will not be too big. Manchester City is the favorite team too, they will definitely fight to defend their title this season.
this is why Ancelotti is currently looking for the best striker to add to the line up to get scoring opportunities when Bellingham is blocked by many opposing defense players and I can understand if recently Bellingham has had difficulty scoring because several teams know that Real Madrid relies on this player so the opposing team defense will always try to make it difficult for Ballingham to score and with the arrival of the striker who will come, it is not certain who it will be, this will really help Ancelotti to set a new strategy and strengthen Madrid attack line.

on the one hand, I also admit that after City succeeded in breaking Madrid dominance in the UCL, currently Man City also has a pretty good chance of being the favorite in the UCL, but things will change after the best striker will come to Madrid and we will see Real Madrid win the title.

That's the way it should be, because I don't think other people need to know about the gambling we do. Take for example, suppose there is one person who has experienced heavy losses and has been heavily addicted to gambling. Then he is at the lowest point because he has nothing but family. And he told family that all of his money and assets were sold off because of gambling. I'm sure his family's reaction will be disappointed, angry, even sad. Because of what? Because this stupid person has spent all his money on a game that is uncertain of his victory.
on one hand, this is an embarrassing story that no one else needs to know, so it is right to keep his gambling activities a secret because if everyone around him knew that he was a gambling addict who had spent a lot of money and valuables, he might be bullied and criticized badly by him. people around him and maybe it does not matter to him but for his family it would be very bad and it would be a shame if the family did not know anything about what was happening suddenly getting bad criticism every day becomes the subject of bad talk to people around him and this is painful.

Its okay to keep gambling activities a secret, it does not mean we hide our addiction, but at least one family member or close relative should know because if something bad like this happens there is someone who can explain or help him or her not to become addicted to gambling.

That is why we have to learn to control ourselves as well as possible because if not, we will not be able to control ourselves when gambling. And when we lose, we will not be able to stop gambling and can instead try to recover from losses, which will never be easy to achieve.
that why you talk about limits for gambling and these limits include everything like limiting yourself to go to gambling once a month, limiting your budget to a small amount etc. but it not be that easy to do after a loss occurs. gamblers will continue betting as long as they still have a budget, even if its only a small amount, but if you lose in a row, this will have an emotional impact at the end of the betting session and if you can not control it, you will definitely only continue to empty your pockets by gambling and this is the impact of gamblers who cannot consider gambling as entertainment but instead consider gambling to be against them so they have thoughts of revenge pursuing their losses and for me that is very ridiculous but very normal and it often happens.

everything is quite reasonable and it is true if we can really feel it when gambling responsibly and I will not give anything additional but I am interested in some of the writings in number #6 explaining about the brain.

I think this is the same as brain therapy so that we dont get stuck in serious problem and make us depressed, just as we live, we need to work to provide therapy to our brain so that we dont think about something that is hard, it makes us depressed and becomes crazy and yes, its true that gambling has the benefits as explained, it can help us get rid unpleasant thoughts in our minds, provided we are not gambling addicts.

Yep, as long as you can make your parents feel secure about your decisions, like in my case, my family knows I gamble, but they know that I'm not addicted to it. But it doesn't stop at family opposition or support, but I myself am a person who witnessed my grandfather being a lottery addict and my father being a gambling addict, as well as having many times my family had creditors come to demand money from me, according to my memories. And actually, I wanted to advise them to stop, but I never said that to them. Maybe some bad images from gambling appeared in the family that made me more aware and didn't want me to turn myself into a bad person a gambling addict.
you should not say that to your family members who are addicted because it is just a waste because your grandfather or father will never listen to your advice because they know you are also a gambler just like you when your father banned smoking but you answered why should I stop smoking while father also smokes.

In this scenario, its up to you to make the decision, but the advice is that even if you are not a gambling addict and your family knows it, you want your grandfather or father to stop gambling, at least you should stop first before giving advice.
2031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this how it start? (No or yes?) on: November 02, 2023, 02:12:43 PM
feeling you are experiencing is one of the early signs of a gambling addiction and to be honest, I have experienced this when I almost became a crazy gambler betting on poker and roulette games. I felt my mind was not calm and restless, but when I went to gamble, my heart comfortable and after losing I felt sorry for not accepting it and while sleeping I dreamed that I was betting on getting a big win.

If you experience this, it would be better for you to immediately look for alternative outlets so as not to indulge too deeply in your initial passion for addiction before things get worse. remember mate, gambling will never give you winnings unless you have lost all your money and the winnings will not be equivalent to your losses. I hope you can understand my advice slowly.
2032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you lose on slots? on: November 02, 2023, 08:58:32 AM
The reality is that the key component to the addiction in gambling is the hope to become rich.
The hope or goal of enriching oneself always results in bad things happening such as addiction and also losing more money.
It would be a shame to think that can enrich yourself by gambling because that will only lead to bankruptcy not wealth.
Even though there are one or two people out there who have managed to become rich by getting big wins, this kind of luck is only experienced by few gamblers.
You are both right but that is what happens to many gamblers where they chase their hopes of getting rich through gambling. Unfortunately, there are still many gamblers who don't realize that gambling is not a way to get rich but rather a way to lose money quickly, especially if they don't have good self-control. It is true that there are people who can become rich from gambling, but that is not the case for most gamblers, so they must be aware that chasing a win after a win is not worth it because they will experience more and more losses. When they realize this, they only gamble moderately and think that when the time comes for them to get a big win, that big win will come to them even though they don't know when it will happen.
expecting to get rich from gambling is something ridiculous. no gambler in history has ever gotten rich from gambling unless they are lucky and of the millions of people in this world there are only a small number who experience this small luck because sometimes someone who gets a big win using a small budget is not pure gambler but sometimes influencer.
and on the one hand talking about slot if someone thinks slots are a place to double money and they try to believe slots will give you winnings it is just an illusion of the mind of a gambling addict while he ignores the basics of gambling games or casino games are just about luck.

How can Gambling be illegal when it is celebrated all over the world. In sports like football alot of the adverts are gambling based. We know that money laundering is one of the reasons for it's

Gambling is not the same thing as sports. You can get as much as six months imprisonment or more with flogging for gambling in Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia. But the country is one of the biggest spenders on sports and will soon host one of the biggest football events in the world. In some nations, gambling is highly prohibited because is seen as a sinful or immoral activity. And you will never see a gambling advert during any sporting competition within its territory.

-snip
yep, I've also said this that sometimes in a certain country or city like Saudi Arabia there are rules or laws that prohibit gambling or establishing a gambling business and if it is violated there will be penalties that apply but still gambling will only be a prohibited activity in only certain countries, not globally, and related to gambling advertisements, it seems that if a country has banned any gambling activities, gambling advertisements will also be blocked and we will not find any gambling advertisements.

even if there are such prohibitions and laws that have been determined for me, it does not rule out the possibility that no one will gamble and of course there are still people who gamble secretly, even corruptors in that country have the opportunity to launder money in gambling.

Real madrid is now having more capable players in replacing him at this moment when he faces injury. Real madrid may also able to get mbappe from PSG soon. I expect this to happen caused by mbappe has been showing very strong signal to go to the real madrid. He never tries to continue to open talk with PSG regarding his possibility to extend his contract. It's likely mbappe will be going to the real madrid next year. Vini has been fully recovered again. I see that if this guy was not injury prone. Even though he was a runner but he can still maintain his  condition.

-snip
I had time to imagine that if Mbappe really came to Real Madrid, this would be a sign that Madrid glory days would return to this team because the superiority of the lineup would be like the past when there were Ronaldo and several other star players and the presence of Bellingham and Mbappe would be a new era for Ronaldo with support from Vinicius and Toni Kroos Real Madrid became very perfect.

and regarding Vinicius we dont seem to need to worry because this player has really recovered without experiencing any problems after his return to the field with Madrid and I will really look forward to Mbappe coming and working with other great players in Madrid.
2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 02, 2023, 05:44:41 AM
I remember in 2017 many questioned and regretted Madrid when bringing Vini for 45 million euros at the age of 16 at that time but indeed it seems that this is a very good future investment because now he is really transformed into a very influential player and indeed the big clause as a 4-year tie is proof that Madrid does not want to lose this player.

Speaking of performance, his age is still very possible to continue to grow, especially since his position is still irreplaceable, it's just that for now Madrid still has to find their central striker so that Vini can return to his original place where 4-3-3 is always a reference for Madrid.
In fact, I also remember in the past that this player was doubted by Real Madrid fans because he was still quite young, it seemed like it would be difficult to follow Madrid strong performance, but apparently no one thought that Vinic could appear with extraordinary talent and this contract extension is one proof of how important this player is at Real Madrid and on the one hand you say that at least Ancelotti should get a very good striker to support Vinic to continue to make the best contribution and Mbappe is still a pretty good candidate and I also hope like when Bellingham comes to Madrid Vinic sent a personal message to Bellingham to join Madrid and I hope Vinic will do the same so that Mbappe is very confident about moving to Real Madrid and feels that he will be highly valued in this team rather than having to stay at PSG without a future which is uncertain.

Nice and Monaco will be strong challengers for PSG this season, but when it comes to fighting for the title I still have quite doubts about both of them because as we enter the second half of the season many things will change, especially regarding several players who are injured which can affect the team's performance in maintaining consistency. This is what makes us a little doubtful even though Nice is one of the teams that is unbeaten in the 10 matches that have taken place and they even managed to beat PSG.
I have the same opinion as you and in january a lot will change, not only injured players but also changes in players who will be sold or new players coming in, while we know the ambitions of PSG owners and PSG financial situation is very good for getting players who has the talent to help take over the top of the standings and unseat the two teams that are currently blocking PSG.

maybe some people still have confidence that Nice or Monaco will win the League 1 title at the end of the season because they see the more consistent performance that Nice has and in fact it will also be surprising but will also provide a new history that is not boring when the top of the standings is held by a team other than PSG.

Now it seems there is not a good relationship between Neymar and Al Hilal, the Saudis invested lots of money in this Brazilian player and now he is going to be absent for the whole season and this will definitely damage the team but he wants to go to Brazil and do the surgery in his own country also he wants to stay there while he is getting recovered while Al Hilal is not agreed and they want him to stay in Saud Arabia.



Well... this is getting really ugly. Al Hilal management will be pissed at this moment. They spent a fortune to bring this guy to Saudi Arabia. He got injured after a couple of matches. And now instead of staying in Saudi Arabia (as per his contract) he wants to go to Brazil. This is the reason why Neymar doesn't get huge offers that goes to players such as Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé. Al Hilal entered into a contract with him despite his known injury issues. The least he could do is to honor his contract and undergo the surgery in Saudi Arabia.
IMO, there is nothing wrong in this case, but I am just saying that before recruiting Neymar, Al Hilal should have thought about the risks of bringing in this player because he has a serious injury that has not yet healed, while Neymar is forced to appear to defend his country in national matches and the party should Al Hilal will not be disappointed with this incident because as I can see Al Hilal without Neymar is still fine and we can see how Al Hilal performed without Neymar in their last match without this player and this is proof that Al Hilal will understand Neymar situation because recruiting Neymar is not just about investment but only to encourage big names in the SPL to become part of the biggest league.

Manchester United and Arsenal are out of the EFL Carabao Cup

Even if I anticipated the lose of Manchester United, I have never reasoned that Westham United is gona eliminate Arsenal tonight. Reason being that Arsenal is so much in form and recently they are doing great. Could it be that Arteta played with the second eleven? If that is the reason why Westham defeated Arsenal woefully, it therefore means that Arsenal is still having problems of squad depth, which was what denied them the English premier League title last season. So, it is also expected that they will have similar problem, this season if there is no depth of quality players in the team.
Could it also be that Arsenal deliberately crash out of EFL cup to be more focused in more important matches.
I think Arsenal had more of their focus on the UCL and premier league so they did gave less preference to the carabao cup games, that could be the reason they did had such a performance, I think so because normally Arsenal would win westham in their current form.

Manchester united have to seat up after this incident else they may end this season without a trophy again, they have a  weak performance at the premier league and in the UCL they are only hoping they will their remaining game els they may crash out of the UCL aswell and they will be left with only the premier league to contend in, a place where they seem not to have a chance aswell in their current form. I think Manchester united needs to do something especially about their defense by this January, they should get good replacements.
yep, it makes sense and for me it is natural that Arsenal will prioritize the EPL and UCL competitions because the title in the UCL is very important, one of the prestigious titles that they have to fight for and on the one hand, pursuing a position in the EPL to continue to get the best place to get a ticket in the UCL next season and I will not be surprised and question Arsenal performance in the match against Westham because Arteta will save his players energy to compete in other competitions and even Man City has experienced defeat in the Carabao match when focusing on the UCL.

regarding Man United poor performance, there will be no hope of winning the title in the EPL or UCL, but even so, I just want to see MU finish in the best ranking at the end of this season like last season and I understand MU declining performance which is happening because they really dont have any formation the strong and right players you said in january Ten Hag chance of getting the right players was really right.

Unlike you, I don't think if this can change anything to see Dortmund playing at home or away against Bayern Munich because we know the chance for Bayern Munich to beat Dortmund is much higher. Checking the last five meets these two teams had before against each other, I can see Bayern Munich won four games while they had one draw and Dortmund could never beat Bayern Munich in these five meets they had, this can make it riskier to bet on Dortmund.
looking at h2h history, Bayern Munich is indeed superior with 4 wins which Munich often gets, even though Dortmund is a rival team to Munich which always chases Munich for points, but if they met to compete on the field, Dortmund would not be able to beat Bayern Munich and on the one hand, there was a draw in In the past, Dortmund still had Bellingham who could still make the best contribution to his team, but now Dortmund has lost this player so it will be easier for Munich to win this match because even though they are playing away, this does not mean that Bayern Munich will have difficulties, plus they now have the best striker which was once owned by Bayern Munich.

betting on this match is very interesting to make a profit so there is no doubt to choose to bet on Munich.

AC Milan was unbeaten for several matches in the beginning of the season and they were at the first position of the points table but at the end they lost the number one position of the points table due to poor performances and they are now at the number three of the points table. Like last season, Inter Milan's performance in this season is quite good and this season Inter Milan has a chance to win the league tournament. The point difference between Inter Milan and AC Milan is only 3, but if Inter Milan maintains this consistency and AC Milan performs poorly in a few matches, then the points gap between these two teams will increase a lot and Inter Milan will win the league title this season by using that opportunity.
regarding Inter and Milan, maybe Inter will be far superior to Milan with great hopes of being able to hold the title in series A, but what we need to remember that the competition in series A is very competitive and very strong, there is no difference in points that is far from the top 5, even Atalanta which usually does not look this strong has become stronger and competes with Napoli while Juventus currently has the opportunity to appear consistently in series A with regular match schedule. Juventus can steal the opportunity when Inter starts to weaken because they have to compete in the UCL and I think several teams that Dividing the schedule in other competitions will definitely have fluctuations in performance between decreasing or inconsistent, because it is very natural for team to divide its time to remain consistent in 2 competitions, it is very difficult, especially for the physical players, there will definitely be a slight decline.
