Yes Real Madrid need to fortify their front line more although Jude Bellingham is doing excellently in his position and getting the deserved attention, but a yong striker to compliment him will help the team a long way, and kylian mbappe who is a young striker and is willing to leave his team by the winter window will best fit that position, if Madrid could get him over I think they will have a better strike force strong enough to be formidable in the la Liga.

Girona is another team to watch out for as they are in their best form and is currently a strong contender in the la liga, they are currently at the second position and hopefully they finish at that position they will qualify for the next UCL, they will aswell form a strong opposition to Madrid but If Madrid fortify their strike with the signing of mbappe by winter they will definitely be stronger over Girona.

That's for sure, after Don Carlo runs out his contract this season. Madrid will change coaching, and they will look for the ideal striker and it is very likely that they will bring Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu. either as a free agent, or Madrid must buy him from Paris Saint-Germain. The problem is, so far everything is still just rumors. In fact, Mbappe did not say anything or make any claims after he rejoined Enrique's team squad "after internal problems in the PSG camp returned to normal".
but whatever it is, if Mbappe is part of Real Madrid next season. Theoretically, Madrid will be a very strong and sharp team up front, they will have strikers who can be relied on in terms of scoring goals.

As for Jude Bellingham, he is not a striker who will always score goals in every match. Coincidentally, Bellingham played well plus he was able to contribute a lot when Madrid didn't have a pure striker to rely on. Bellingham is able to position himself well and in almost every match he is able to score goals for his team, something that deserves appreciation. It's just that because he is not a striker or center forward, Madrid will automatically need someone to play a vacant role after Benzema's departure. Let's see what Madrid will do next January.

Talking about Girona, this team is on the rise and performs well in almost every match. So far, they're pretty impressive. the only defeat they experienced was against Madrid, it's natural that these two teams are at different levels. However, I doubt if Girona can maintain its consistency to remain in the top four of the standings. However, we'll see at least until the first half of the season ends. after that, we will find out whether they are still able to be consistent. or, experience decreased performance.

We know how fortunate Al Nassr are when they finally brought in Cristiano Ronaldo from European football. He's a total different species and have the capacity of playing till 40. Comparing Ronaldo to some footballers is ridiculous because he's weigh 10x better than these players who are not hardworking like himself. Ronaldo puts in enough energy to be the best in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo is a super being in the football world, he's brilliant and 100% fit in physiques. Facts, all upcoming youngsters imitates the Portugal international as their hero in football.

I would say the opposite of what you said, Ronaldo and Al Nassr both benefited from this project. Just imagine, the salary he gets at his current age is fantastic. If you still insist on playing in the European League, it's not certain that a big club will recruit him, especially with a fantastic salary. But with Al Nassr, he got something much different than when he played in the European league at his current age. Apart from that, he can still exist even though he plays in the Asian League. Plus, he can still continue his career and continue to add to his long record, both in terms of scoring goals and so on. In essence, both parties benefit and have added value. Al Nassr is much more famous. and Ronaldo got his reward.

But in fact, the real goal is not just to make the Al Nassr team much stronger, or for the league to become better known in the eyes of the world. but more about project planning for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with its PIF company. Ronaldo is also the world cup ambassador for Saudi, it is clear here that we can examine carefully, that the project carried out by PIF and the Saudi Kingdom is far from what we think. The Saudis really understand that bringing in a superstar at Ronaldo's level will have a very positive impact on the ideas and projects they are carrying out. and after that, it was proven, other top European players started to arrive. Unfortunately, Ronaldo has not been able to bring his current team to the League trophy.
Talking about fitness, Ronaldo is a very disciplined and hardworking player. so, what he has earned in his career he deserves.

This result was expected, we know how dangerous Brighton are from last season and they are replicating the same attitude of toughness this season making it very difficult for top teams to get a win against them. Playing away for Liverpool it was likely that the game will finish in a draw and so it was. The same as Newcastle United and westham, an expectated draw match which I don’t consider a bad result at all for all four clubs.

In fact, I predicted in a previous post that Brighton would make things difficult for Jurgen Klopp's squad in that match. In fact, sometimes this team's performance is unstable when playing against teams that are much weaker. However, when Brighton meets quite strong teams, it is not uncommon for them to play very impressively. It was proven that they were able to hold Liverpool to a draw. and previously, I favored De Zerbi's squad when they hosted Liverpool. However, it is not without reason that I say that in my considerations. The reason is that several Liverpool players had to be absent, apart from being injured, two of them were suspended due to red cards. Plus this match was played at Brighton headquarters. had taken the lead in the 20th minute, but unfortunately Liverpool was able to respond in the 40th minute and increase their lead in the 45+ minute. and in the end, the match became a draw after Lewis Dunk equalized. It's a shame, Brighton should have received a penalty when the Liverpool defender's hand touched the ball. on the other hand, 1 Liverpool player's shot hit the goalpost. So, let's wait for Brighton to visit Anfield, Liverpool's headquarters.

As for the other match, between West Ham vs Newcastle. This match is almost similar to the Brighton vs Liverpool match. I mean, West Ham took the lead in the 8th minute and Newcastle managed to equalize and even reverse the lead. but in the end, David Moyes' squad was able to equalize the score at 2-2 from a goal scored by Mohammed Kudus. In fact, Newcastle's performance is starting to get back on track. but unfortunately, after playing 4 winning matches in two different competitions, they had to be held to a draw by West Ham. which in the end both teams must share 1 point equally.

It's difficult for Leverkusen because in the end there are only 2 options for the Bundesliga when it comes to trophies, one is Bayern and the other is hoping Bayern play very badly and other clubs can compete for the championship but for this season I doubt Bayern will play badly (like last season).
On the other hand, sometimes this busy schedule can be a problem for Leverkusen even though Xabi has shown his capacity as one of the good coaches but the test this season will be very different where Xabi must be able to be consistent but not force the players in every match considering that the players also cannot be compressed so as not to fatigue and must have a good rotation about this. Xabi's task will be very tough but if he wants to achieve success again then he has to pass this test.

Likewise with Bayern Munich, if their defense line plays in poor performance. or being ups and downs, then Sven Ulreich will have difficulty defending his goal so he doesn't concede. So far, according to my observations, Bayern Munich's defense, especially in the Bundesliga, has played quite well and solidly. However, if their performance is unstable, or when playing against a team that is quite tough, Ulreich will easily concede. proven, when Bayern played Leverkusen, Leipzig, Manchester United in the Champions League group phase. In these matches, Sven Ulreich underperformed. If you want to be even more sure, you can check the statistics. and I think the problem facing Bayern is the goalkeeper. Plus, Bayern needs some pretty tough defenders. Well, it's not impossible that Bayern will slip up in some of their matches, and that doesn't rule out the possibility at all. Luckily the midfield and attack line seemed to be playing quite solidly with high performance. well, if Neuer doesn't recover by the first half of the season.  Like it or not, Tuchel must cover the weaknesses in his squad in the January winter transfer window.

As for Leverkusen, it is not an easy matter to win the Bundesliga trophy even though they have performed impressively so far. Along the way, Leverkusen will also meet several tough teams both in the Bundesliga and in the Europa League. The point is, how Xabi maintains the performance of his team's squad as well as the fitness of the players. If he is able to do this, it is possible that Leverkusen will provide tough competition until the final moments of this competition. We'll see, because the Bundesliga will still feature match after match until the season ends. After all, Leverkusen has one game to host Bayern at the BayArena and they could benefit from playing at home. and I only hope that this competition continues to provide quite competitive competition.

How will you feel if someone you know or just a friend of a friend walk up to you and ask you to finance them in gambling in exchange for a portion of their winnings? Does this even make any sense?

Because the only place this makes a bit sense is the skills base niche like forex trading or crypto trading, how can gambling/gambler be financed?

Have you heard of such before? What is the end result if you have?

Why would you trust anyone to gamble better than you can when it's all about luck?

Is anyone doing this on here?

Someone explained this to me, and I believe he is already a victim because to me it doesn't make sense, I believe he is been used because he lacks knowledge about gambling, do you think my judgment is wrong?


Believe it or not, practices like this actually exist, whether as you asked in this thread, or those who join in to cheat in gambling.

Let me tell you a little, in my country, in the last decade poker type games have been very popular, what I mean here is online poker in fiat casinos. At one table, there are several people working together in the game, meaning they play in groups and target 2 or 3 opponents as targets. In the scenario, there are several people who act as players and there are parties who fund it. Any winnings obtained are divided into profits together but separately from the initial capital spent. Practices like this are commonplace in my country in the game of Texas Hold'em Poker, and are not even a strange phenomenon and are known to players who play singles.

Just imagine, when you play, you will be surrounded by other opponents who are working together at one table. which means, their probability of winning is greater than someone who really plays purely. In the end, the online site only applies one IP to the player. In the end, such practices gradually disappeared. Plus, many new types of games are emerging and becoming popular, one of which is slot games.
Referring to your first question, suppose a friend of mine asks to finance his gambling. I will give it, but within reasonable limits according to the bankroll I can afford to give. However, I will not ask for compensation if he wins his gambling. I just consider providing assistance, nothing more. after that, there will be no second, third, or subsequent requests for capital. Just imagine, which gambling really guarantees 100% winning. I think we can agree that the answer is no. even in forms of gambling that involve skill. after all, if it's just to spend money on gambling, we can do that too. So, if a friend promises you a win in gambling. better, ignore it.
2126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: October 10, 2023, 11:08:56 AM
I'm not sure Galatasaray will be able to complicate Bayern Munich's plans in that match, of course because I think Bayern Munich have good goal statistics so far. Galatasaray have been quite strong so far and maybe that can help them prevent Kane et al from scoring lots of goals, but I believe Bayern Munich will be really hard to stop this season.

Harry Kane has scored 1 goal and 1 assist in the Champions League in 2 appearances, while Kane has also scored 8 goals and 4 assists in 7 appearances in the Bundesliga. I believe Kane et al will be difficult to stop and Tuchel's plan for that match is to win, but if Galatasaray manages to win points in that match then I believe they will have a good chance of qualifying for the last 16.

The first leg match will be played at Galatasaray headquarters, like it or not, Okan Buruk will prepare his team to provide resistance when they host Bayern Munich. At least if they fail to overthrow Bayern, Galatasaray will look for a draw point to maintain its ranking in the Group A phase and hope that Manchester United's match will also be a draw against Copenhagen. Or, Okan as Galatasaray coach still has to prepare his team to play offensively.
The point is that they also want to get through from the Group A phase, especially since Galatasaray is now in 2nd place. The opportunity to qualify for the next phase is quite wide open for Galatasaray, especially if the team coached by Okan Buruk is able to match the play of the squad coached by Thomas Thucel.

As I said above, at least they are aiming to get a point, even just 1 point. but it is not an easy matter for them even though they are playing at home. because after all, Galatasaray and Bayern Munich have a fairly unequal level, we can compare them based on the quality of the players, as well as the team's performance. and as we all agree, Bayern has a big chance to win matchday 3 of the Champions League group phase. and I suspect, this match will present an interesting match.

2127  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: October 09, 2023, 08:26:25 PM
Well, for rich gamblers, losing money doesn't impact to their financial capability which is why it never incurs problems. But for poor to middle-class people, that is a big deal and most of the time this would be a reason for a broken family and relationship. It is not because they don't understand their husband but it is because their husband doesn't understand the situation that they have. If you are a responsible husband/wife, you don't have to prioritize or spend more on gambling rather than use it to buy food.

I like the points you make, especially for ordinary or poor people who love to gamble. as you said, when a couple has financial limitations or, let's say, only earns a mediocre income, the impact of gambling by the husband/wife will have a big impact on the relationship they have had so far. The breakdown of the relationship will gradually occur, whether it ends in separation or someone has to give in and realize that someone's actions are excessive. but if someone has been dominated by addiction, ego and the fantasy of getting rich in one night. So, usually damage to family relationships is inevitable. in the end, one of them will leave or end it with separation.

I am sure that a phenomenon like what is said in this post is not a foreign phenomenon to us, especially to the lower classes of society who tend to prefer gambling with lotteries. Usually, the expectations are simple. hoping for a miracle by getting the jackpot from lottery type gambling. The key is to understand that the priority of family needs is number one. For gambling, whatever the reason, whether for fun, entertainment or wanting to get additional income from it. The focus is that money is only prepared to be lost on condition that it does not interfere with the family's financial problems. or in other cases, excessive gambling can also damage a couple's relationship. The key is to play less and share time with your partner.

In the case of a rich person, it is true, losing money on his gambling will not have a major impact on his relationships. However, if someone does it intensely, plus a large amount of money is at stake, but unfortunately they always lose, then the potential for damage to their relationship can occur. The point is, play within your means, only using the money we have budgeted, without disturbing other interests. which in the end, will not affect the breakdown of a relationship.
2128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you will do? on: October 09, 2023, 07:53:00 PM
Honestly, playing gambling never gets bored, especially slots are always a lot of addiction but when the bankroll has run out, there is no other way but to take a short break because I have set a bankroll for gambling if it has run out, the gambling game is over.

Yep, we agree, and actually slot games are not boring, especially since there are many choices of games that we can play. However, maybe it's not precisely because we're bored of playing slots, but rather the games we play are starting to make us bored. especially, if the game we are playing has taken up too much time. in a sense, the game just stuck there and didn't get bigger, or didn't decrease drastically. I mean, the slot games we play have very tough game rounds, and can take hours. to the point, we are made impatient so that we feel tired. I think every now and then we have experienced something like what I said, perhaps other gamblers often experience the same experience when playing slot games.


Never compare the statistics of victory and defeat but it is clear that the ratio of defeat is a lot but this is just for fun not for addiction or other victories because if you expect from gambling it is impossible to do.

I already have a percentage for gambling and it's not much.

Well, related to this, in gambling winning and losing is a common problem and that's for sure. however, if we compare the statistics of wins and losses, I am sure that most gamblers will have the same answer, because the probability of winning in gambling is smaller than the ratio of losing. especially, in slot games. or, a type of game based purely on luck. and, I agree with the points you said. it would be better if we didn't compare winning or losing statistics if we just play for entertainment and fun.
2129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino is a Games of Chance and Entertainment on: October 09, 2023, 02:24:51 PM
All gambling games are just for fun when you are tired of working all day, don't make gambling a job or want to get rich quickly.

Isn't it more tiring if you lose in gambling? There's a lot of other activities to do just to feel relaxed after a tiring day.

If you will get that relaxation thru gambling, it might give you a different result. Instead of feeling relaxed, you might end up mad and disappointed.

It's true that don't take gambling as a job. It's a horrible idea. Just a part of entertainment but still have a control over it.

This will become a tiring part if someone puts a lot of effort into their gambling session, after someone has finished their work activities. Thus, this means that the gambling session carried out after work is not for any benefit, such as playing just to relax, fill free time before resting, or so on. After all, we don't always have to gamble after work.
The point is, the intention is to relieve fatigue from busy activities after a long day of work. but with the condition, do it with a small bankroll. thus, if we lose, it won't be a serious problem.

As for anger and disappointment that could potentially occur, this is due to several indications and certain factors. There are actually many examples, but the point comes back to each of us. if, we, you, or, someone gambles with the main goal of wanting to get a good beat. If the results do not match expectations, then as you said, this has the potential to make us even more tired because we have released big emotions of anger and disappointment. However, if we can make good use of this moment, whether playing slots with the lowest bet per spin, or betting on football with the parlay option, it is enough to make us forget a little about work problems or other problems. and yes, it all comes back to each person.

For the last point, ideally winning should be like that. Because what is certain is that gambling is not an ideal job because the risks involved are quite large. So, the most appropriate point as you said, do it only as part of entertainment that has fun with it but still and is accompanied by control over this entertainment.

I am trying to understand what is going on with Saudi Arabian transfer craze to be honest and that's why I am writing this post. I understand government funds their teams to promote sports and raise sympathy towards their country that's obvious. But what's the end game here? I mean they may buy Haaland or Neymar or whatever new major players. But if they do not join UEFA I wouldn't count it huge success. I am wondering as if UEFA plans to let them access to champions league (I feel like this is achievable) but I suppose rich teams are opposing the idea, right?

Oh, I think more than you think, IMO. I'm sure what was done in their project was planned long ago. therefore, they did it very wonderfully. let's just imagine, how much money they spend just on player salaries alone.  In fact, these funds were issued by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Previously, I heard rumors that the Saudis wanted to be involved in the most prestigious competition in the European League caste, namely the Champions League. however, I cannot confirm the validity of the rumors or gossip. Apart from that, the management of the Saudi Pro League is collaborating with one of the companies to sell the broadcast rights for their competition. despite the rumors I heard, the Saudi Pro League competition is not that attractive in the market. Maybe for Asia, there are several countries that broadcast this league.
In their project, the Saudis are targeting Ronaldo for them to bring to their league. after further investigation, finally several local Saudi newspapers reported that Ronaldo was also the world cup ambassador for Arab Saidi. We can look carefully, there are many things they do in their projects. Apart from the target of hosting the World Cup in 2030, Saudi is also investing in other types of sports besides football. Again, PIF is behind it. while we know. PIF is a Saudi Arabian public investment company and is headed by Mohammad bin Salman, the crown prince and Prime Minister of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Well, referring to what you posted in this thread. My question is, with all the projects they are working on "only as far as we know" is it possible that their focus and goal is only for sports or football. for me, not at all. There is a lot that we certainly don't know, because not many media report it. but the point is, their goal is for business, empire, and not just for football. Starting from hosting the World Cup, Saudi has opened their doors to the outside world and is ready to do their business in any field. Anyway, this is just my personal opinion or thoughts. does not prove, the real truth.

I agree with you. Spending his career in Saudi Arabia and earning almost the same salary as young European players today, it really was the best choice. It's not all about money. But if you can earn more money at the end of a footballer's life, why not. I think this is a very realistic thing. I also really enjoy the SPL since many European players play there.
I think the huge amount of money Saudi Arabian clubs are spending to sign European based players is beneficial to both the players and the Saudi League and that's why they're doing it regardless of the criticisms they're getting from some quarters.
Most of the European based players that has been signed to Saudi League so far are in their 30s and wouldn't get the same amount of financial packages they're getting in Saudi clubs if they had continued to play in Europe. Also the players have already made names for themselves as far as football is concerned so their presence in the Saudi League is giving the league more of global recognition and audience.

That's why, the initial target for Saudi clubs is players aged 30+. I think this scenario has been adjusted by PIF, a company that has acquired several big clubs. However, regarding the arrival of players, it all depends on the wishes of each respective club. which means, both Al Nassr, Al Hilal, Al Ittihad, Al-Ahli have full control to bring in the players they want. but as I said above, their target is top players aged 30+. why, there are various factors and scenarios, players aged 30+ tend to have a transfer value that is not too expensive. in fact, they can bring it in for free. So, their only points after that are only on the salary of each player.

Apart from that, bringing in top players who have names will bring positive hype to their league despite some critics. However, with this scenario, this league is becoming better known in the eyes of football fans in the world and that has been proven. If not, how could there be criticism from some circles? and the plus point for players who play in this competition, they get fantastic salaries. So, both clubs and players benefit. After all, the money spent to bring in players with expensive salaries comes from the PIF company and it all comes from money from the Saudi Kingdom. and overall, I agree with what you said.

It's true that Arsenal is a little luckier if the ball doesn't hit the opponent maybe the situation is different, but apart from that moment Arsenal deserved to win for their efforts in the second half. I don't follow news about Manchester City so I don't know what's going on within the team however, from what I saw yesterday it seems City played less aggressively and was less effective how is it possible that they only had 4 chances and only 1-2 dangerous attacks. If Manchester City continues to play like this then I'm sure they will fall behind in the standings.

The point is, in this match the Arsenal players played very disciplined, especially in their defense line. Likewise with the midfield players, every attack created by Manchester City was able to be blocked by the Gunner players. and what I'm a little confused about is, Pep applies the same system as Arsenal with his 4-3-3. I thought initially Pep Guardiola would implement a 4-2-3-1 system. or, 3-2-4-1. It's just that maybe because Rodri still received a red card suspension, Pep is adopting another pattern even though he actually has the option of other players if he applies the system I said. and don't be surprised if Pep tends to dare to rotate his players in different positions.

But IMO, ideally if Pep implemented a 4-3-3 system, he could rotate ideal and established players. Grealish, Haaland, Alvarez, on the front line. for the middle, it could be Kocavic, or Jeremy Duku, it could also be Foden, don't be surprised, because Pep often rotates players as he wants. in the middle would ideally be John Stones, and the other middle side could be played by Bernardo Silva. for the defense line, that is ideal.
However, as we can see, Pep prefers to use Foden on the wing and Rico Lewis as a midfielder. even though in reality, this match is a crucial match and Arsenal now is not Arsenal last season. because they have Rice who is playing with extraordinary performance, and Odegaard with good performance. Also, Arteta also has quite ideal substitute players. this was proven, in the second half, after Martinelli came on to replace Trossard and Havertz and several other players came on. Arsenal played much more aggressively to the point where Martinelli was able to take advantage of Havertz's pass and it became their only winning goal. As a Gunners fan, I am very happy with this victory, especially since Arsenal's odds are quite good with odds @.2.90.

After point losses in the Ligue 1 and Champions League for two games PSG finally won a game. Honestly I didn't expect this game against Rennes to be comfortable at all. I even thought Rennes would get some points from them. However getting 2-0 ahead in the first half made things much easier than expectations.

Mbappe didn't make any goal contribution in this game. This has been the same for four games by the way. I'm curious about whether he has lost his concentration from now on. Especially after the Newcastle game he must be really frustrated.

The 3:1 divorce win against Rennes succeeded in bringing PSG up to 3rd place and only 2 points different from the 2 leaders, namely Nice and Monaco, but unfortunately I didn't place a bet on that match even though PSG's chances were bigger, but many times I was disappointed by the result of the defeat. PSG in several matches and maybe with this victory PSG will be more confident and confident that they will be successful against more difficult opponents, PSG strikers have difficulty scoring goals but are lucky other players can score goals to achieve PSG victory, so far the PSG player are quite solid they help each other and don't just rely on the main striker to scored goal.

As I said in the previous post, PSG will win this match, especially if Enrique doesn't do strange things by experimenting with systems, patterns and rotating his players. as far as I know, Enrique relies heavily on his 4-3-3 system. and it was proven, they won this match. IMO, PSG have actually found their rhythm, but their problem is in their attack line. Apart from that, sometimes PSG's defensive line tends to underperform and often makes mistakes which result in blunders. I think as a coach, Enrique is very aware of the squad of his team. also, which system is appropriate for his team. Unfortunately, he always insisted on trying to do experiments.

In the match against Rennes, PSG played very well and Vitinha scored the opening goal for PSG. 4 minutes later, Hakimi took advantage of a pass from Warren and was able to convert it into a goal. while Mbappe, he wasted several big opportunities that he had. one more thing, I think Enrique should play Gomcalo Ramos more as a supersub player. he would be better off playing as a substitute, rather than playing as the main starter. and the ideal one is Kolo Muani, in fact he is able to position himself well when Hakimi passes and scores.
Furthermore, PSG will host Strasbourg next week. If Enrique maintains his system, and at the same time gives Randal Kolo Muani a chance, I'm sure they will win the match again. Well, one thing I understand based on my point of view. PSG's problem is their center forward, but it's worth remembering that both Goncalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani are not ready-to-use players who always score goals. but as they develop, these players will reach their level of play. and for me, Kolo Muani is more ideal as a center forward. However, it still needs time.
Next, Assensio will return to playing with his colleagues.  He can be relied on by Enqiue and can be a center forward option in their squad. Finally, this match is according to what I predicted, even their odds are quite good at @1.94.

This time looks like Bayern Munchen have a very staunch contender for the title which is Bayer Leverkussen.They are winning every single game and the only draw they have is against Bayern Munchen at Bayern Munchen home,this should be a bell of alarm for Bayern Munchen as they won't have it that easy to win the title this year,nor that they had easy last year when Dortmund fatally lost it in the last game of the season by drawing at home against Mainz.This time though is not Dortmund,it is Leverkussen and I highly doubt if they were to be in the same situation as Dortmund last season they will fail to achieve the title.

for now and perhaps in the next few weeks, the competition in the top four of the standings will look exciting between Bayern, Leverkusen, Stuttgart which we should not rule out and even Dortmund is starting to find its rhythm. However, the most striking thing is Leverkusen, whose performance is always good in every match. Levekusen players, play consistently, Victor Okoh Boniface can really be relied on as a single striker. Likewise with Florian Wirtz, Jonas Hofmann, Frimpong and no less good, Granix Shaka, who performed well in every match with his best performance. This team seems to have a strong bond between one player and another, and also has a very strong chemistry with Xabi Alonso as Bayen Leverkusen's field architect. I remember what Shaka said several times ago, that at Liverkusen he was more serious than at Arsenal.

Well, I'm interested in what you have to say.
To be honest, I personally can't speculate too far. because along the way, it is possible that each team we mentioned in this post experienced several obstacles. whether it's due to a decline in performance, the absence of important players due to injury or other non-technical problems. Therefore, ideally we wait until the first half of the season. After that, the competition will actually get tighter if in fact the standings remain in tight competition. Last season, the rivalry between Dormtund and Bayern started in the second half of the season. whether it was Union Berlin, Leipzig, Freiburg, even Frankfurt experienced a decline in performance in the second half of the season. they appeared inconsistent, and in the end the competition only occurred between Bayern and Dortmund. In this season, there are still many matches that all teams will play. What we can do is just enjoy every match presented by the Bundesliga until we see how the competition for positions on the Bundesliga standings is.

he counterattack that Bayern must anticipate when facing Galatasaray because seeing from their game against Manchester United, the long passes of the Galatasaray players for counterattacks are quite troublesome and this must be anticipated by Bayern who always attack by locking up the defence and their players always come out of their posts to help attacks such as Davies and Mazroui who are always active in helping Bayern's attacks this could be a gap for Galatasaray.
But I'm pretty sure with the current difference in strength then this will not be a problem for Bayern and they will still win 3 points in this match.

One thing that differentiates between Manchester United and Bayern Munich is the quality of the players as well as the performance of the players plus several injuries to key players. Munich is much better than Manchester United in attack, midfield and even defense. even so, for me Bayern has a weakness, namely Sven Ulreich as their final defensive wall. His performance was very doubtful when Thomas Tuchel's team played a crucial match. As for Galatasaray, I think Tuchel really knows the strength map of the team that will be his opponent on matchday 3 of the Champions League group stage.

Apart from that, what Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk implemented is not necessarily the same when they played the match against Bayern Munich. For me, it's quite the opposite, Okan as Galatasaray coach has to anticipate Bayern Munich's patterns and fast play. Apart from that, it's not just Kane who is dangerous when it comes to scoring goals. other players such as Lenoy Saney, Kingsley Coman, Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala and also other players. Tuchel doesn't only rely on Kane to get goals for their squad, Kane also contributes in terms of assists, and the players are also given the freedom to score goals if they have the opportunity. btw, I'm not in the mood to overestimate Bayern Munich. It's just that these two teams have a gap, we can even refer to the betting odds for these two teams. However, I am quite sure that Galatasaray will put up a fight against Bayern Munich. It's just that their defense line is quite weak and that proved to be the case against United.
Anyway, in football anything can happen and there are no definite and accurate predictions. So, let's just wait for the points on matchday 3.

I was quite surprised at Barcelona's match today, no one thought that Granada would be able to score first against Barcelona. I even thought that this would be Barcelona's defeat against a weak club like Granada, but it turns out that Barcelona was able to equalize before the match was over and yes, at least Barcelona must be satisfied with this result because at least Barcelona did not experience defeat.

Lewandowski's absence made Barcelona's attack line weaken even though they completely dominated possession of the ball but Barcelona seemed to have difficulty breaking into Granada's goal in the first half and fortunately in the second half Barcelona was able to perform optimally and S. Roberto managed to score a goal in the final minute so that Barcelona did not suffer defeat.

It would be a shame if this fight had to end in a draw, to be honest I didn't watch this fight because it was held early in the morning my country time.  referring to the statistics, line-up and highlights of this match. It seems that Barcelona's defense line was a little careless or maybe they were too busy attacking so their defense line moved too far forward which gave Granada a lot of space when they were able to win the ball. Granada scored two goals, the first goal was scored in a very short time in the 1st minute, and perhaps because of this goal the Barcelona players got a surprise. In the 29th minute, Granada again increased their number of goals. also, 1 Granada player's shot hit the goal post. after that, no more goals were scored by Granada.

As for Barcelona, ​​based on the statistics of this match, they completely controlled the game. They had 80% ball possession, 11 total shots, 5 on target, 2 big chances. Based on the statistics I referred to, Ferran Torres did not play well in this match. 1 already suspected that Ferran Torres was not ideal in the center forward position. he lacked creativity, and his performance was up and down. The goal scored by Barcelona was scored by Lamine Yamal and this goal was also his first goal in La Liga. the second goal, scored by Sergio Roberto from Balde's assist. Unfortunately, it seems that Jules Kounde had to be withdrawn due to a suspected injury. Maybe also, because Kounde's performance was not in prime condition, Granada was able to score two goals in this match. and it's a shame, Barcelona should have been able to win this match if Joao Felix's goal had not been disallowed for offside. As a result, Barcelona had to share 1 point equally. Now, Barcelona is 3 points behind Real Madrid.
By the way, if I'm not mistaken, there are rumors that Barcelona will look for a striker from La Masia as a temporary replacement for the injured Lewandowski. but I'm not sure if this rumor is true.

If you have the habit of playing and gambling on different sports and game, I think it is not good because of some few reasons like;
YOU WILL SPEND MORE MONEY ON GAMBLING.
YOU CAN BECOME MORE EASILY ADDICTED THAN A GAMBLER WHO PLAYS ONLY ONE GAME. 
YOUR CHANCES OF LOOSING WILL INCREASE, BUT YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING MAY NOT INCREASE.
YOU WILL SPEND MORE TIME GAMBLING.
Which other reason?


Have you done research related to what you say in this post, or is it just based on your personal experience. If I have to be honest, I only bet on one type of sports betting, namely football. that too, for leagues that I really know about everything in them. However, that doesn't mean I never bet on other types of sports. In the past, I also often involved basketball betting. but now, because I have missed so much information, I no longer try to bet on other types of betting. However, there are several other types of games that I also like, although they are not as dominant as betting on football.

More precisely, casino games like slots for example. This type of game always involves luck. but in practice, we never know when luck will come to us. However, there are various variables that we can do to bring good luck, although there is no definite theory or effective strategy. Therefore, we must have limits in each game session.

Now, we return to sports betting.
Referring to what you said, for me it all comes back and depends on the gamblers. So there is a scenario, you can bet on several types of sports, but what is important to know is that you really understand that type of sport. If I may give a tip, only bet on matches that really have a good chance of being a bet. Let me take an example, there are several top leagues that I really always monitor every development. be it players, clubs, and so on. Every week, each league will present many matches. Of the many matches, I only chose a few teams that were worth choosing as bets. It could be just one match from a particular league, or at least 3-5 matches. and even then it has gone through selection and analysis results. the rest, let the results of the match determine. Apart from that, you can get involved in betting on other sports. Remember, it is not recommended that you try betting on all matches, only choose those that have a high probability of winning for your bet. the ideal option, is a single bet. If it's just for entertainment, you can choose the parlay option for just a few dollars. The point is, if there is no ideal match, you don't need to bet. So, the question is, can you?

Al Hilal has always been a great team in Saudi Arabia and they are the best team in history for Asian teams because of the achievement they got so far.
Also, this team spent too much money on players and they have many famous players on their teams.
The fact about this team is they have 18 players playing for their country's national teams.



Al Hilal, is a team that has always been a candidate or could be said to dominate the competition for more than a decade. Before Al Ittihad won the title in the 2022/2023 season, Al Hilal had won this competition 3 times in a row. Al Hilal seems to have a long history, especially in terms of titles in the last decade. Even before this club was acquired by PIF, I thought Al Hilal was a rich club. we can see the players they brought in before being acquired by the PIF company.

So, it would be very natural for them to have high prestige, especially in purchasing top European players. Al Hilal, doesn't want to be outdone by Al Nassr who brought in Ronaldo. Previously, they had tried to bring in Messi, even more than his rival's salary.  unfortunately, Messi refused. It didn't stop there, several big name young star players tried to offer proposals. in the end, it was Neymar who they managed to bring in.
Now, Al Hilal is back in the competition for the Saudi Pro League trophy. Last season, they had several obstacles plus close schedules which ultimately greatly drained the fitness of their players. This season, the probability of Al Hilal winning the League again is very high. Now, they are at the top of the standings.

The Leverkusen vs Koln match matches what I predicted for Xabi Alonso's squad. In the post above, I said that Leverkusen would score 3 goals in this match. and what I predicted, according to expectations. Unfortunately, Koln were unable to score a single consolation goal in this match. even though based on statistics, Koln had 7 total shots, 3 shots on target, 3 big opportunities. but unfortunately, they were unable to maximize every opportunity they had. If Koln is able to score just 1 goal, then I win this bet with Over 3 goals. Or, Leverkusen should be able to score more than 3 goals. Even though they had several big opportunities, they were unable to convert them well. As a result, I got my money back without being given anything more.
But speaking of Leverkusen, Xabi Alonso's squad really always performs at its best. almost the entire team, has played its role impressively so far. I didn't expect Xabi to be able to take Leverkusen this far, even though they haven't proven that they will continue to appear consistently. However, now Bayer Leverkusen is at the top of the standings with 19 points.



Stuttgart, this team also quite surprised us with the positive trend they played in this competition. Of the 8 matches they played in various competitions, they appeared impressive.  they only experienced one defeat, and that was against Leipzig. then after that, they appeared without defeat in their last 5 matches. In the match against Wolfsburg, Stuttgart appeared strong. They fell behind in the 34th minute from a goal from Wolfsburg players, but in fact Stuttgart were able to comeback and turn things around to win. What's even cooler is that Serhou Guirassy scored a hat trick. and now, he is the top scorer in 7 matches with 13 goals. So far, they deserve appreciation.



Bayern vs Freiburg. as we predicted in the previous post, they will have no difficulty beating Freiburg at their own Allianz Arena. Even in this match, Bayern did not give Freiburg a chance to attack and even created dangerous opportunities. Throughout the course of the match, Bayern dominated the game. they controlled 70% ball possession, 23 total shots, 6 on target, 1 big chance, 3 which were able to convert into goals. Unfortunately, Kane was unable to score a goal even though he contributed 1 assist.

well, the three teams I mentioned in this post are as I predicted in the previous post. that, there will be no changes to the position on the standings this week. because, I predict these 3 teams will win the match. Interestingly, these 3 teams both scored three goals in this week's match. Well, the competition feels quite competitive at the moment.

Arsenal did dominate the attack we can see it based on statistics Arsenal had 12 shots and Manchester City only had 4 shots and fortunately Arsenal managed to score a goal in the 87th minute lol, as I said before surprises can happen at the last minute and Arsenal are the lucky ones today. This is a bad situation for Manchester City after 2 consecutive defeats, I don't know what the problem is, it's clear that Manchester City's performance is starting to decline they seem to lose strength and cohesion. By the way, Tottenham and Arsenal have the same points and Arsenal are behind in total goals.

As a supporter of the Gunners, I am very happy with their victory on matchday this week. however, referring to the pattern that Pep uses, I am confused about why he also uses the 4-3-3 pattern. In fact, Pep can apply a 4-2-3-1 system, or maybe a 3-2-4-1 pattern in this match. In fact, as far as I know, Pep doesn't hesitate to speculate and experiment with the system and rotation of some of his players. However, in this match Pep chose the same pattern as Arsenal. IIn the first half the match was quite tough, City even had 2 big chances, one shot on target. Meanwhile, Arsenal didn't have a single shot on target or even a big chance. What was different was that Arsenal's defensive players were quite disciplined which ultimately made it difficult for City every time they built an attack.

In the second half Arsenal appeared much more aggressive and they always troubled City's defense, Arsenal's players appeared more brave and confident. In fact, several City players appeared a little nervous. Honestly, watching the progress of the match from the first half to the 80th minute. I thought this match would end in a draw, fortunately Martinelli was able to use a pass from Kai Harvertz and was able to convert it into a goal. even though the only goal was scored, it was enough of a victory for the Gunners' young squad. and I am happy with this result, in the end Arsenal was able to break City's dominance.
Now, Arsenal is in 2nd place only on goal difference from Spurs. however, both teams have the same 20 points.
Meanwhile, City suffered their second defeat in the Premier League competition. If Pep had implemented another pattern, it looks like this match would not have ended in their defeat. but on the other hand, this competition is increasingly competitive.
