Carlo Ancelotti knows how important and capacitance in Real Madrid, leaving the club will only shake the club for temporary moments but they when do one starts to believe in the old man, he's a genius and have deliver the club in years. Ofcourse Carlo Ancelotti can leave, he fixed the club to the glorious shape they found themselves in the current state.


I am amazed by Anceloti. Currently he has certainty to become Brazil coach. But with that certainty he is still working professionally by building Real Madrid. He made the best transfers and worked long term. Although currently Anceloti has not yet received a replacement striker for Banzema. But he made the transfer for the long term and now it is proven that Anceloti's transfer was successful. There has been no official statement from Real Madrid as to who will replace him. But with the current conditions, maybe they will get extraordinary players and the new coach just needs to be smart to utilize the players they have.
Carlo Ancelotti is one manager that loves to leave a great positive mark in any club he manages as the Italian manager is regarded as one of the greatest football managers in the history of football and that's because if his intimidating records over the years as a manager. .

It's been reported that he's bound to manage the Brazilian national team next after the end of the season as he's not going to continue club management again but looking at his decisions including transfer and future if Real Madrid players, you could see that he's still making long term decisions that are gonna definitely favour the club even when he's very unlikely to remain there after the end of the season. That goes a long way to explain how good of manager he is and how he wants Madrid to still remain a top European club even after his departure and I think he should be greatly commended for those gestures.

Regardless of the last matches I think Brazil will qualify, along with Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador and Colombia

The sixth place is harder, I don't 'believe' in Venezuela even when they are in third place right now, I think the most likely sixth team will be Peru

Mannnn, the Conmebol qualifier its never been so easy for the big teams, they have now more places than ever, and some teams like Bolivia are pure shit and are gonna be in the bottom as ussual, so obviusly the national teams you mention are gonna be in the World Cup. It was more fun before with only 5 teams getting the ticket.
It's very surprising to see that after six games played in the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, a big team like Brazil is lying in the six position behind teams like Columbia, Venezuela and Ecuador. Another big team in the CONMEBOL that's not living up to expectations of football fans is the Chile national team who's currently in the 8th position. That been said, I don't think that there's anything that's gonna stop Brazil from reaching the finals of the FIFA World Cup in 2026 because they have all the quality players needed to easily qualify for football's biggest tournament in 2026.

Argentina and Uruguay who are respectively leading the the qualifications table I also think are gonna surely make it to the finals as we all

I can't wait for the Al Nassr match against Al Hilal, and after the match we will know which one is stronger, I think predicting the result of this match is very difficult because at Al Hilal there is Mitrovic whose quality of play is good and I also saw Malcom from In terms of his game, I see that he is good and his kicks are extraordinary, so he was able to score 3 a goal against Al Hazm.

and Cristiano Ronaldo is also in good form and I saw that his performance in the Euro qualifiers was very good, and I also saw that when Al Nassr played with Al Okhdood, Cristiano Ronaldo performance was very good and he scored two goals.
I think with Cristiano Ronaldo s.al najei and talisca will be able to compete against al hilal. Indeed, Al Hazm was defeated by Al Hilal with a score of 0-9, but of course it is not certain that Al Hilal will win against Al Nassr. because Al Nassr is a strong club.

Have super big match in this week between Al Hilal vs Al Nassr both teams are the top standings position right now, actually Al Hilal on the top performed after winning 9-0 over Al Hazm and will continue with the winning trend against Al Nassr? on other side, the opponent team Al Nassr won't loss points yet because keep pressure Al Hilal with fewest points left how to get chance to win domestic league tittle. Its not balance comparison Al Hazm as weakness teams against Al Hilal, I think Al Nassr have top perform and Cristiano Ronaldo lead top scorer will make difference result or stop the winning trend from Al Hilal.

I am waiting with Cristiano Ronaldo can continue scoring goals for Al Nassr after success scoring every goals on every match in domestic league, he leaded top scorer awhile and Al Hilal will difficult teams for scoring goals?
Al Hilal and Al Nassr has been the most consistent teams in the Saudi League since the start of the season and considering what they've been able to do in the current league campaign, there's no doubt that a lot of football fans all over the globe will certainly be glued to their screens for their crucial fixture this weekend.

Having been able to not lose a game in the Saudi Pro League this season, Al Hilal is currently at the top of the league standings and four points ahead of Al Nassr who's already lost two games this season. Cristiano Ronaldo who's the top scorer in the league is Al Nassr's most reliable player at the moment and would want to help his team to win against Al Hilal on Friday so they can close the point difference to just one point.

Man United  has a good player for attack who is Antonio Martial he has not just been able to meet up with the expectations of the club due to injuries since ten Hag was appointed head of the club affairs.


The problem for Martial is that he only remains an option for Manchester United even many times on the sales list. He can sometimes be one of the good super Sub players for Manchester United but some problems that occur and he is not really considered at Manchester United this makes him look sorry in my opinion.
Indeed, he sometimes contributes but the performance problem when he is used as a striker and the injury problem makes Martial not too noticed even though he is still very young and his performance can still be honed by the coach should be.
Anthony Martial scored on his debut for Manchester United and raised the expectations of the club's fans with a very impressive performance in his first game for the club but has failed to live up to the expectations over the years at the club. The France international has suffered several injuries that's believed to have affected his name performance but with his performance against Everton on Sunday, I think he has all it takes to become a very important member of the Erik Ten Hag squad again but what I don't know is if he'll get the opportunity to play as often as he would want to in other to improve more on in the game.

I've read reports of the Old Trafford club trying to sign Timo Werner in the January transfer window and that will again limit the chances of Martial getting adequate playing minutes. If Werner or another striker is signed in in January, I think it'll be best for Martial to leave the club in other to get more playing minutes

Indeed, with the addition of new participants, the results of the Champions League moving down to the European League will make the competition even more heated. Manchester United and Sevilla are likely to be in the last 16 of the European League and I have no doubts about that. However, I think Manchester United will not be as great as we think, while Sevilla may be their natural habitat to be able to win the title again. I feel that these big teams will fight each other to advance to the higher rounds, but my focus on Leverkusen and Liverpool will never disappear and I hope that both of them can advance with certainty to the final round.
I don't dare to speculate on these two teams, because their rate of failure in the Champions League group stage matches is quite large.  whether it's Manchester United or even Sevilla. Talking about Sevilla, they haven't won even one of their four matches. tomorrow, a fateful day for Sevilla. Likewise with Manchester United, their chance of overthrowing Galatasaray may not be realized. It is possible that United and Sevilla will not be able to finish in 3rd place in the Champions League group phase. thus, they will not participate in this competition.

So what's interesting is Milan and Newcastle, these two teams have the potential to have tickets to the Europa League playoffs. These two teams are in 3rd and 4th place, uniquely the two teams will meet in the final matchday phase of the Champions League. As for other teams that have the potential to fall in the group phase, I haven't checked them yet. but with the joining of several teams that were eliminated in the Champions League competition. Obviously, it will add to the excitement of this competition. We'll see if Sevilla can finish in 3rd place and so will United. plus, Milan and Newcastle. This is interesting, at least it's not just Liverpool and Leverkusen who always get attention in this competition.

As it stands, Sevilla is at the bottom of the group V of the UEFA Champions League competition with just two points, three behind third placed Lens as well as second placed second placed Russian club PSV. They play later tonight at home to PSV and a defeat by PSV while Lens gets a result against Arsenal will automatically end Sevilla's hopes of finishing anywhere above the bottom. Sevilla has been very poor this season and they'll have to get good results in their final two games of the UCL group stage to be able to finish third and qualify for the knockout stages of the UEFA Europa League competition.

If a team like Manchester United ends up to play in the Europa League, it'll bring more quality competition as well because the English Premier League club is also a very strong side that's capable of winning the competition at the end of the season

Until you watch the beautiful football played by Bayer Leverkusen this season, you should not forget that they have also played successful matches in previous seasons. Leverkusen is currently the team with the biggest championship possibility against Bayern Munich. If Bayern loses points, Leverkusen will be able to create a bigger point difference. There is currently a race in which two teams follow each other closely and this makes the league more enjoyable.
Leverkusen rose since the middle of last season when Xabi Alonso arrived as Leverkusen team coach in the middle of last season and Xabi Alonso made quite significant changes to make Leverkusen's performance improve.
And this season everything starts from the beginning and Leverkusen is really getting stronger, so that up to now they are unbeaten, only drawing once against Bayern Munich and the rest they always win.

And because of this, Bayern Munich has to be careful this season because there is a possibility that Leverkusen can prevent Bayern Munich from retaining the Bundesliga trophy this season (and honestly I want that to happen so that the Bundesiga will be more competitive).

There will be more Improve games ahead last week saw that the both fullbacks of Bayern Leverkusen have given good number of assist and scored goals. Xabi Alonso is indeed a very good man with his job. First position in Europa League and first position in Bundesliga too.
This weekend they face Dortmund who have just won three goals and have qualified for the Champions league knockouts.
It will be a lot fun when they meet, there is more competitive games coming for Bayern Leverkusen in Bundesliga,  they will be tested by top clubs in Bundesliga. Bayern Munich are also chasing hard Tuchel has plans of winning back to back trophy in Bundesliga. The signing of Harry Kane has helped them this season.  The goals achievement is so much. Harry Kane will win the award this season.
I don't think there was a better way of announcing himself as one of the young football managers that are gonna be among the biggest football coaches in the future than the what Xabi Alonso has done with Bayer Leverkusen since he became the manager of the German club but more especially what he's done with the team since the start of the season. To be able to lead in a league where Bayern Munich is also competing is a big achievement but what is even more extraordinary with what Alonso has done this season is the fact that that he's doing all these with an average team.

Bayer Leverkusen has proven that they're a very strong contender to challenge for the German Bundesliga title this season and if they can continue with their current form, they might be the team that's finally gonna end Bayern Munich 11 years dominance in the league.

Manchester United recorded its name in history as the first team in the EPL to successfully keep 500 clean sheets. That is a huge amount for one of the giants of English football and it is all thanks to great performances from legends such as Peter Schmeichel, Van Der Sar and David De Gea. However, the newest goalkeeper, Andre Onana, often receives criticism because he often underperforms and also makes mistakes which makes the Old Trafford public very angry. But thanks to his performance in the last match against Everton, the 500 clean sheet mark was finally achieved and perhaps we should be able to put confidence in this Cameroonian goalkeeper so that every day he gets better, despite all the mistakes he made at the start of the season.
Manchester United undoubtedly has been one of the most successful British clubs in the history of football and I'm not surprised that the most successful club in the English Premier League competition became the first to reach 500th clean sheets in the English top flight. It further tells how good of side they've been in the league since it they began to compete in it over a century ago. The club has also been fortunate to have great shot stoppers in the club which I think is the reason why they were able to achieve this great feat ahead of other English teams.

The list of great goalkeepers that's played for the club is just too numerous but since I started watching football, the likes of Peter Schmeichel, Edwin van der Sar, David De Gea and the club's current goalkeeper Andre Onana has all been world class goalkeepers. Onana has received a lot of criticisms since he joined the club after making series of avoidable mistakes but in recent games, he's proven that he didn't help Inter Milan to reach the UEFA Champions League final last season by chance but by been good shot stopper.
2128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 29, 2023, 09:53:13 AM
More than anything, I think the performance of Lens was disappointing compared to the last season while Nice was amazing and you are also right about Monaco being in the good form both of these teams are currently racing at the top of the table while still, the first hope for the French league is PSG.
Monaco lost 5-2 in the last match to PSG, it is difficult to say anything about good form, and they will try to finish the season in the Champions League zone, but they will not be able to fight with Nice and PSG on equal terms. Moreover, the whole intrigue in Ligue 1 will be how long Nice can pursue PSG, as soon as Nice starts making mistakes and losing points, everything will end. PSG is gradually reaching its optimal form, so I think that they will only increase their advantage.


Anyone who was able to have followed the development in the French Ligue 1 last season will definitely be shocked by Lens significant decline in form since the start of the season because last season, they were one of the top contenders that challenged eventual winners Paris Saint Germaine for the French league title. They've been a shadow of the Lens team we all saw last season and the reason behind their decline is something I don't even know.

Monaco and Nice has been outstanding this season season and looks like the two top teams that are gonna strongly challenge league leaders PSG for the title but that being said, I don't think they have all it takes to stop the reigning champions of France PSG from retaining the league title once more. The quality of players in the PSG set-up is just too good to be stopped by any French team from retaining the title once again.
2129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 29, 2023, 09:45:08 AM

Juventus is rested more than Inter Milan this year. They do not play any matches in Europe and I think they manage to use this as an advantage. I wonder where Inter, who is doing very well in Europe and the league, will have problems? In Europe or Serie A? Or will they go well in both? What are your predictions?
I think now the is the golden opportunities for Juventus to use everything within their reach to surpassed Inter Milan on the table this season. We quite understand how competitive Juventus can be and how Massimiliano Allegri have put in enough work and tactics to enable the club to become this consistent and strong for oppositions, they shouldn't jeopardize their chances of winning the scudetto this season because next season might turn out to become different one, our expectations might not be triggered and they will open to new surprises ready to kickoff.
Juventus without doubt stands a better chance among other top Italian teams that are trying to overtake Inter Milan in the league standings because of the fact that they're currently not playing in any European competition but that doesn't automatically mean that Inter can't hold on as the league leaders till the end of the season if they truly want to achieve that feat despite their involvement in the UEFA Champions League competition.

In 2010, a Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan won the UEFA Champions League title, the Italian Serie title as well as the Italian Cup and the current Simone Inzaghi's squad can still replicate the same result this season if they work very hard for it.

This requires little skill and huge luck.

It isn't about stats because he was betting against the usual stats of a player, but a win is a win, actually a big win.
As for me, I doubt I would be able to risk $18 for that bet builder with x1000 odds, that's too risky, but the winner here , he got some balls to to take a high risk bet and it paid off.

We are just jelous now bro, hehe.. but we cannot win if we don't follow the winner's patch.
The result of the bet I think is a combination of experience of the person the gambler as well luck because it's very rare for someone to actually win this big in sports betting with this kind of prediction. The winner actually went to far  at the rate of he took in this particular bet which I think it'll be very difficult for a random gambler to follow suit but at the end, he was rewarded with huge win which now makes sense to everyone.
That would be a millionaire if he stops gambling,I remember some guys who had a small IT devices shop and they were selling computers and laptops,all was going well with them as they were some acquaintances of mine until one day they started gambling.They started with small amounts in the beginning until they build a balance,a good one and they started playing with over 1000 dollars bets and got further and further until one good day they lost it all and this to say that you can never become a millionaire over the long run with any type of betting.
One thing I've learnt about gambling is that there are two ways it triggers gamblers to gamble uncontrollably. Firstly is when they're losing in gambling and when they're winning in gambling and the failure for gambler to regulate his activities during these periods simply leads him to gambling addiction. This person has already won big in gambling with this kind of reported win but if he further tries to bet on similar games with same strategies he used in winning this big, he might not be lucky again like he the recent winning and that might trigger him to gamble more thereby losing all his money

There is a big chance for Newcastle United or Ac Milan to qualify for the last 16 of the Uefa Champions League because Paris Saint-German will find it difficult to beat Borussia Dortmund at home, the highest result PSG can get from Borussia Dortmund is a draw match. Newcastle United stands a better chance of reaching the last Uefa Champions League because they had a better head-to-head against PSG, Newcastle United needs to win against AC Milan, while Borussia Dortmund and PSG should end in a draw match.
This last game determined who will qualify for the round 16, but know that Newcastle United have less goal against the Borussia Dortmund and the PSG, I don't have any hope for them because I don't think Newcastle United will win AC Milan with plenty goals, even though Borussia Dortmund and PSG draw still no hope for them unless they put more effort and score more goals because PSG that is second now have different of three goals between Newcastle United, if the game want has you wanted PSG and Newcastle United will be in the same point. Borussia Dortmund vs PSG will be a tough one because PSG have won their home and Borussia Dortmund will like to defeat them too so it can be vise versa. Am not confident of Newcastle United to qualify for the round 16 but rather prepare for Europa, and again they have to be careful if not they may not qualify to Europa because the are in the same point with AC Milan the only difference is goals.

The group F of the UEFA Champions League competition is absolutely living up to the media hypes it got before the kickoff of this season's campaign because after five matches has been played, just one team which is Borussia Dortmund has progressed to the knockout stages while there's still possible chances that any of the other three teams can join Dortmund. Newcastle last night was denied a crucial win by Kylian Mbappe's stoppage time penalty which was one of the biggest talking points of yesterday's match but regardless of the result, the Magpies can still reach the round of 16 if they beat AC Milan at home in their last game of the group stage while Borussia Dortmund gets at least a draw against Paris Saint Germaine.

After AC Milan defeated PSG before the FIFA international break, I was thinking they were gonna get a result against Borussia Dortmund yesterday since they would be playing at home but to my surprise, the German club defeated the San Siro club to claim all three points from the game to become the first team in the group to reach the knockout stages.

Yes, it's true that Dortmund at least only needs a draw to qualify for the next round, but at least Dortmund can win to be more calm and safe, even though it will definitely be difficult to win the match at AC Milan's home ground, so far Milan's defense is very good, that's why maybe Dortmund it will be difficult to steal a full victory from the match later.

On the other hand Milan may need a win to have a chance of progressing to the next round, previous meetings these two clubs only settled for a goalless draw, that's why it will be a betting game that determines who from this hellish group will progress to the next round, I'm sure one of them will win in this match, even though Milan is very superior in the betting market, I am more interested in Dotrmund who might succeed in stealing full points in the match later with a narrow score.
Dortmund as the top of Group F, certainly wants to immediately lock their ticket to the last 16 more quickly. As a result of not wanting to play under pressure in the last match which was held at PSG headquarters, Dortmund was determined to bring home the three points at Milan headquarters. Dortmund mission to win at the San Siro is not easy because they have a poor record against teams from Italy, they have never won in the last five visits to the headquarters of teams from Italy. The match at the San Siro is predicted to be as fierce as the first meeting at Signal Iduna Park which ended goalless.

As a result of the four teams in group F still having the chance to qualify for the last 16, Dortmund must avoid even the slightest mistakes so as not to lose points at the San Siro. Milan record when playing at home is quite good, one win and one draw means that Dortmund should not underestimate the Milan team even though several key players are injured. Dortmund must perform optimally and must close the space to narrow the movement of Milan players if they don't want to suffer the same fate as PSG when they visit the San Siro.
Borussia Dortmund knows that the group F of the UEFA Champions League is undoubtedly the strongest group in the competition and since they're currently at the top of the group with 7 points, they stand a better chance of progressing to the knockout stages. So they'll would do everything within their tactical strength today to avoid a defeat because if AC Milan beats them today while Paris Saint Germaine defeats Newcastle United, then Dortmund's fate won't be in their hands again and that might end their hopes of reaching the round of 16
The match between Manchester City and RB Leipzig in Group G is sure to be an exciting one. Manchester City's unbeaten record in the Champions League so far and their previous win against RB Leipzig certainly gives them a strong advantage. Despite already booking their place in the knockout rounds, both teams will be looking to build momentum with strong performances. However, RB Leipzig will be keen to acquit themselves and will likely put up a strong fight. A 4-1 win for Manchester City is certainly a bold prediction, but given their current form and performance in the Champions League, it's not entirely impossible.
Both teams happens to be very rough teams and I except a tough game from them, although like you rightly said Manchester city has already booked their spot in the next round of the champions league but then they still have to play against Leipzig as one of their group stage game's.

Leipzig has been doing well in their domestic league which happens to be the bundesliga and aswell in the champions league, so far they have lost only one game and won the other three from the four champions league games they have played so far,  most likely they will be able to secure a spot for themselves at the round of sixteen in the champions league I just hope Manchester city gives them three point from this match so their qualifications becomes sure.
Leipzig is a strong German team that's able to beat any team in Europe on their day but I don't think they'll be able take maximum three points from Manchester City tonight. Manchester City have already qualified to the round of 16 of the competition but Pep Guardiola is one manager that will always want to win his games even when winning isn't too vital. The top spot of the group is still open for grabs and that's why Manchester City will definitely want to beat Leipzig today in order to finish as group winners.

Arsenal sitting at the top of the league at this time of the season doesn’t really mean a thing. Everybody thinks Manchester city are still going to win the EPL title. Honestly it looks like Manchester City are still the favourites to emerge as champions again after their 1-1 draw against Liverpool, but with the current performances of other top four teams, like Liverpool and Arsenal, it seems like Manchester city might not win it this year. Arsenal have beaten Manchester City this season, Chelsea held them to a 4-4 draw some weeks ago and now Liverpool played out a draw against them.

Arsenal's ability to got top of the English Premier League I think shows how much ready the Mikel Arteta team really wants to fight for the league title. The opinion that they ain't a strong team to challenge for the title I don't think is valid considering how consistent they've been since the start of the league season. Manchester City without doubt is the strongest team in the league and that's because of the quality of players in their set up but that doesn't mean that Arsenal aren't formidable enough to challenge them for the English top flight title.

I think another failure to defeat a fellow big hitter will give them all the confidence that Manchester  City could drop enough points for another team to take advantage. I somehow rate Liverpool more than Arsenal to challenge Manchester city better. Liverpool are arguably the team most likely to beat Manchester City to the title. After all, they have done what has become almost impossible by getting something from the Etihad. If Manchester city continue this pattern of failing to beat their closest rivals, they might lose out on the title this season.
Considering the kind of rivalry that Liverpool has posed to Manchester City for the past 6 years, it's obvious that they're the strongest among other English Premier League teams to fight the champions for the title this season but just like I said in my response to your the first paragraph, I think Arsenal will as well be a team to beat for the title this season.

I see a lot of people here talking about gambling responsibly. Yes, that is something very true, but have you ever been a gambling addict?

To be honest in the past I have spent a lot of money gambling. What I mean here is that I spent all my savings on gambling. Maybe the nominal amount is not that big but it makes me feel like a gambling addict. I spent 5 months of my savings on gambling. Currently I am aware and am in the stage of improving my own financial condition. Have you ever felt like a gambling addict? and how much did you lose in gambling?
As a gambler there must be a time that one will be an addict, it is when you have lost so much and learnt a hard lesson from your addiction that will make you discipline yourself. What I mean is that there was a time that I was so addicted to gambling because I misunderstood that gambling should be for fun, but I was seeing it as a means to make profit. I lost so big that it affected my financial life. I have to quit gambling for two years before I started gambling again, but this time I only gamble for fun with the little amount that I cam afford to lose.
Such a rethinking and difficult path has occurred for many, but what is important is what conclusions the person made after all this. Unfortunately, very often there are none. I'm glad that you've reached the level where you can bet for fun, even though you had to pay quite a price for it. There are also those who will not be able to understand this in their entire lives; they will constantly bet and lose and will never bet for fun. Something similar happened to me, so I understand you well.
There will also be those who, having reached your level, will reach a bet that will infuriate them and they will again go to another circle that they went through earlier and learned nothing.
There's no gambler that'll proudly day that he's never been addicted to gambling ever in his life and that's because of how addictive gambling can be. That been said, it's one thing to become addicted to gambling and totally a different thing to fight the addiction before it gets out on hand because living with the addiction is very detrimental and can easily ruin a a person's future.
I was once deeply addicted to gambling before and it was so bad that I was totally unable to save a dime rather I was constantly using every cent that I get to gamble and it was a very sad experience. I had to fight against it and luckily enough, I got over it

So far PSG's performance is good, it is very good, yes, we cannot deny that Luis Enrique has done well, and I admire the ability they have to make everything turn out wonderfully there, but we must not trust Ourselves , the Teams that They are in Ligue 1 and they no Longer have the same respect for PSG as they did last season. Now Mbappé is playing very well so he can keep the team happy and happy. I would say that things can get better when they try to do better. always focus on having the best results, whether with Mbappé or without Mbappé , things are being Added to PSG , I personally am not a big fan of PSG, at one point I liked the Team they had put Together , the big stars Promised to take everything, Ligue 1, UCL and every championship that was Presented to them, but it wasn't like that, and that was what disappointed me about the team, of course, what I saw was that it was the fault of the PSG coach , because it is impossible for the players to have those Results.


Paris Saint-Germain FC have become a very compact team this season. Last season they had a great squad. But they didn't play such a good game. This season they seem to have become a team. They beat one of their most important rivals in League 1 with a very comfortable game. So, even if Mbappe goes to Real Madrid right now, I think they can win the French Ligue 1. And I think the biggest part of this success belongs to the coach Luis Enrique. I know it's too early to say, but if they find stability, in a couple of seasons they could even win the Champions League trophy they dreamed of. I saw them very well in the game against Monaco.
After big stars like Lionel Messi, Neymar as well as Sergio Ramos left Paris Saint Germaine after the end of last season, Paris Saint Germaine management signed more world class players in to the squad and that has really boosted the depth of the squad this season. They didn't start the season on a good note as they dropped points in games that they were expected to win and that I think was as a result of the fact that their manager Luis Enrique was still trying to find the best tactical approach that'll help bring out the best from his players who I think he's now finally found.

I don't expect any other team in the French Ligue 1 to best the very in-form PSG team at the moment. I thought Monaco was gonna give them a good run for their money but little did I know that the French champions were gonna run riot against their rivals in that game.

We have not seen a very clear and open offer from Real Madrid to be interested in Mbappe recently. Real Madrid seems to be two sided now; they are either in need of him but don’t want the whole public to know or they will want the player to make a move by himself or show interest that he wants to play for them before they’ll approach him with an offer. I know that the two sides will feel very bossy about it and each of them will want to feel more respected in the sight of others. Mbappe to Real Madrid is now a deal full with many uncertainties until the transfer window is opened where we know the destination of every player by next season football.
Of course, offers will not come before the transfer market opens because it could be a big problem if they plays a role behind the scenes. I think we have to wait for the January transfer window to open to see how interested Real Madrid are in Mbappe and whether they will be ready to spend funds that might be large enough to bring mbappe to the Bernabeu stadium. During the last summer transfer window, Real madrid were quite quiet about Mbappe transfer because they did no send any offers to PSG at that time.

I'm sure Real Madrid will wait for Mbappe contract to end with PSG and be ready to bring Mbappe to the Bernabeu stadium. So far, Real Madrid will indeed make improvements in the winter transfer window and this gap will be filled in for their front line. I think Real madrid target is to have a fairly capable sticker and they will focus on that as best as possible to be able to compete more strongly in the second half of this season.
Real Madrid may not have officially tabled an offer for Kylian Mbappe, but that doesn't mean that the Spanish giants aren't very much interested in the services of France national team captain. I think Real Madrid is secretly trying to seal the deal before they can start making it public public.
Real Madrid wants a big striker like Kylian Mbappe who'll replace their former captain Karim Benzema and I know they'll make everything possible to make sure that Kylian Mbappe is brought to the Santiago Bernabeu. I'll be very surprised if Mbappe's proposed tranfer deal to Madrid fails to materialize.

Imo gambling is 50/50 about luck, and other 50 goes to money. I have stated for myself that people gamble for two reasons, to test their luck and to earn some money. I saw people say that gambling is about having fun, I even myself have thought like that. But lately, when I started to feel pressure or be nervous after placing a bet, then it does not looks like having fun. However, I cant say that being lucky is enough to be good at gambling. Can we say that in gambling luck=random? As gambling is full of random occasions.
I do hear this saying that people gamble for fun but it's hard to believe, the anxiety and fear that comes after placing a bet doesn't sound funny, I refuse to believe that people gamble for fun. At some point I will say this person is lucky and sometimes it's not about the luck, some people just have that gift to predict correctly. If gambling win comes with luck I think every gambler will be successful. The simple truth is people gamble to earn more money and at the end of the day they don't get any profit, so sad.
In my own opinion concerning the subject matter, I think luck has a very big role to play in gambling and that's because of the little experiences I've been able to witness in gambling. For instance, there was this man that walked in to sports gambling center, he had very little knowledge of gambling and how it works but all the predictions he was making played out the same way he wanted it. None of the experienced gamblers in that space would predict what he was predicting because they'll never use his predictions as they'll find it not worthy enough to win games but luckily for him, he won all his stakes.

That being said, let's not fail to understand that despite the fact that luck plays a big role in gambling, a gambler must be very strategic in his gambling activities to stand a better chance of winning

Garnacho's goal against Everton was really great. Social media was abuzz with this goal. After the goal he repeated Cristiano Ronaldo's goal celebration. He might get the Puskas award for this goal. It would have been better for him to do his own celebration after this goal. But because he is one of Cristiano Ronaldo's biggest fans, he chose to honor Cristiano Ronaldo. It was a really incredible moment for me to see. Cristiano Ronaldo has left a great legacy in world football and Garnacho is one of the followers of that legacy.





Alejandro Garnacho scored the a sensational and beautiful goal since the start of the English Premier League campaign to help his Manchester United side to convincingly beat Everton today in their game and so many things has been said about the goal with many already tipping it to win the Puskas award next year. Just like many young football stars of modern day football, Garnacho is a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo and would definitely want to achieve what the Portuguese superstar achieved in his professional football career.

 He demonstrated his love for the former Manchester United player by celebrating Ronaldo-esqe kind of goal celebration as well as showing his underwear that is engraved with the CR7  which means he's been patronizing Ronaldo's collections o we the years.

Winning in terms of quality, the Leverkusen players are far behind the Bayern players, but in terms of performance they are not much different and even the chemistry of the Leverkusen players is much better so that these players can carry out the tactics of a very good coach which has an impact on the team's performance which is quite impressive and one thing that is extraordinary Leverkusen's usual thing is that they have been able to be consistent up to now.

It is likely that this season the fight for the Bundesliga title will be fiercer than in previous seasons, even though Bayern remain favorites, their percentage of being able to defend the title is not greater than last season.
In terms of player quality, it is true that you say Bayern Munich is superior to Bayer Leverkusen. But we can't just look at it from that aspect, the chemistry and cohesiveness of each player in various lines, this is what makes their club appear strong and strong. Many clubs or teams outside the Bundesliga do not have the quality of other top clubs, but they show the identity of their club, for example Girona (Spanish league). Yes, in terms of percentage, Bayern Munich is more favored to win the league.

I don't think there's any doubt to the fact that Bayern Munich possesses more quality players in their set up more than any other German Bundesliga team including Bayer Leverkusen but when you look at the general performance if Bayer Leverkusen this season, you'll know that they've played with more determination than any other side in the league and that's why they've gained more league points than any other Bundesliga club.

Xabi Alonso's tactical approach has made his boys to play more of team football than depending on individual brilliance of some quality players to win their games. Despite Leverkusen's convincing performance this season, Bayern Munich is still bookmakers favorites to regain the league title at the end of the season.

Yeah this is a match between the best teams in Serie A whoever wins will be called the strongest team is also at the top of the standings, I checked the betting market for some reason the bookie favored Inter Milan on the one hand, Juventus as the home team certainly does not want to be embarrassed they will do anything to win or at least not lose moreover, Juventus has missed 4 seasons in the race for the Serie A title so this season is the right time for Juventus to do it. So far both teams are still playing defensively and more carefully.
Juventus were on top of Serie A for 6 minutes, that was a long time ago. Juventus are the better team so far, if Chiesa had scored in minute 16, Juventus would now leading. So far there have been 9 shots on goal and 2 been on in the goal, I think there are two more goals to come. And the fact that Vlahovic and Chiesa are finally together in the starting line-up is the right decision. But one of them will definitely bog out for Moise Kean today.
The performance and the result of Juventus game against Inter Milan today is a proof that they're not just the top two teams in the Italian Serie A table but also the best performing and most consistent teams in the league since that start of the season. The game gave football fans exactly what we expected after much was said in the build up to the very important game.

Juventus who has never been at the top of the league table for a very long time saw themselves climb at the top of the table after scoring the first goal of the game but unfortunately for them, Inter Milan's in-form striker Lautaro Martinez scored a goal six minutes later to deny Juventus a home win that would've seen them top the league standings for at least a week time. The total of just 13 games have been played in the Italian league but I think it's already obvious that Inter Milan and Juventus are the two teams that are gonna battle it out for who wins the scudetto at the end of the season
