If eventually the salary is what stands in the way for Mbappe to sign a contract with a great club from the Premier League, then it would not be the club that is to blame, but Mbappe. This boy is almost a billionaire already or maybe we can leave out the "almost". Who knows, perhaps he is a billionaire. Did you read what Joao Felix was willing to do to play for Barcelona?

Joao Felix was willing to accept a significant cut in salaryand only received €400,000 for one whole season. If Joao Felix can do it, I think Mbappe can take a cut and only receive 40 million or so. The only one who is responsible for his legacy is Mbappe himself. If greed is really what prevents him from playing for a club who is not owned by sheikhs, he doesn't deserve to be rewarded as the best of the best in a year.

I remind you that firstly, if mbappe was not felix. Secondly, There's no club was willing to pay more than 200 millions for a guy which is having less than 12 months of contract with its current club. thirdly, mbape has been so obsessed with real madrid. that makes him unwilling to leave from PSG to go to another club other than real madrid. This is a very hard thing to do for him. The main problem if realmadrid is still monitorin his situation but the club has yet taken a step to secure him from PSG

That's the main problem why mbappe's transfer saga is very complicated these days. This is a long story in the football.

I also want to remind you, in football everything is uncertain. Let's remember that Mbappe almost joined Real Madrid, but Mbappe refused because of an offer he couldn't refuse from Nasser al-Khelaifi with PSG. We know very well what is being rumored, that Mbappe really wants Madrid. But remember, Florentino Perez had stated that he would not bring Mbappe again. because, they think Vini Jr is increasingly developing. However, as time went by, it was suspected that Mbappe had entered into a secret agreement with Real Madrid. This statement was put forward by PSG Management, which added to the chaos of Mbappe and PSG's situation at that time.

Whatever we discussed regarding Mbappe going to the Premier League, it is not impossible that this would not happen. If United is acquired by Qatar, they will be able to pay Mbappe according to his current salary. Apart from that, there is another rich club, namely Manchester City, perhaps in the future they intend to want his services and sign him. and what is certain is that we don't know what will happen in the future, that's the fact.
For now, Mbappe is still part of PSG even though we know his contract will end in 2024. And the 2023/2024 season still has some time left until it ends, there are lots of matches left. In essence, for now Mbappe will continue to play for the team and PSG. Regarding his departure in the summer, it is still a mystery even though Madrid is his main destination.

~~

in the UCL they met strong teams. then it is quite difficult for Dortmund to compete. at least they appeared quite promising in the Bundesliga. and I think that is their best target for this season.
The match against Union Berlin might not be too easy for Dortmund. Last season they were in the top 4 of the standings. Even though this season they have experienced many problems, Dortmund cannot underestimate Union Berlin. It's just that Dortmund can take advantage of the bad moments experienced by Union Berlin. They are definitely the favorites in this match.

In the Champions League competition, Dortmund experienced a difficult match from its opponents. on the first matchday, Dortmud lost to PSG, in last night's match Dortmund was only able to draw when they hosted AC Milan. On matchday 3 of the Champions League, Dortmund will visit England to play their match against Newcastle. a difficult match, considering that Newcastle was able to beat PSG.
which means, Endin Terzic must improve his squad's performance to make it much better. in fact, Dortmund has returned to the right track especially in the Bundesliga. It's just that their performance is not yet stable and the games they play are not that good. Terzic's current task is to find the ideal strategy and try to awaken the talent and potential of his players, especially young players.

Talking about the match against Union Berlin, in this match Dortmund is still the favorite to win the meeting between these two teams. and what is certain is that Terzic will aim for victory to solidify their position on the standings. As for Urs Fischer's squad, the performance of his team's squad has really declined. They experienced 4 defeats in the Bundesliga, 2 defeats in the Champions League. Theoretically, Dortmund should be able to take advantage of the momentum of the meeting between the two teams this week.

One of the keys to Tottenham Hotspur success this season lies in the strong leadership of their main coach, Ange Postecoglou who managed to get rid of Tottenham dependence on Harry Kane by implementing a formation that can be changed at any time in the match. He often uses a 4-2-3-1 scheme which places Son as the spearhead, but can change to 4-3-3 depending on the flow of the match.

The 4-2-3-1 formation is very suitable for Tottenham players, in the last match they managed to beat Liverpool in the EPL. Postecoglou has succeeded in motivating Tottenham players to always perform optimally on the field, they have overcome the pressure from their rivals and are always focused on their goal of winning the Premier League title.

We cannot deny that Ange Postecoglou is able to bring Spurs to perform well in the Premier League and rank 2nd in the standings. Even though Spurs have lost their big star, Harry Kane, this doesn't make them slump when they start their match in the new season's competition. But, what Ange Postecoglou did exceeded our expectations for her. Even though this competition has only been held for 7 matches, it is too short to assess it at this time, but there is no harm in giving a little appreciation to the Spurs coach. even if I look at the start of the match, until the last match between Spurs and Liverpool. Ange often tries to rotate his players. but now, Son is always the center forward that Richarlison initially had. Son has scored 6 goals in this match, a good start for him.

Regarding changing the scheme pattern from 4-2-3-1 to 4-3-3, basically almost every coach does it.  It's just that we rarely realize it. especially, during substitutions. Changing strategies and tactics is a common problem, this is done to get around the opposing team. not much different from what Pep Guardiola does, even Arteta tends to be monotonous with his 4-3-3. however, in the game system, formations can change at any time, whether in defense or attack and this is the form of modern football.
Back again to Spurs, we'll see how far Ange is able to take his squad into competition in the Premier League and whether he will be able to maintain their position in the top four of the standings. we will find out, as the Premier League presents match after match.

Real Madrid have got even stronger rather than getting weaker. I must admit that I was also expecting Real Madrid to lose some power in the attacking line after not making a big striker transfer. But here we are now. We are witnessing Real Madrid having a better season than the previous one. Isn't this a solid improvement?

They are fighting for the La Liga together with Barcelona. On one hand they are doing pretty well in the Champions League with a start of 2 wins. They even beat Napoli away in a tough game most recently. Things are going fine for Real Madrid for now.

Ah, I don't agree. however, Real Madrid needs a pure striker who can be a mainstay in the front line. even though we have seen how Madrid played their matches with wins, there is a phase where they will need a pure striker like Karim Benzema. As for Joselu, it seems he is only a supersub player.
I tried to understand what Madrid was thinking at that time, especially in the last summer transfer window. Initially Madrid was linked with Kane, but Spurs' asking price was too high. Rumors about Osimhen also emerged when he played impressively with Napoli. However, there are rumors that Madrid already has a pre-secret agreement with Mbappe. In the end, Madrid brought in Bellingham and after that Don Carlo seemed to be looking for a pure striker who would only use it for one season. and, Jeselu was also borrowed from Espanyol. This option seems to have been planned by Ancelotti beforehand. I thought Joselu would be the main starter, but it seems he is only an alternative option for the system that Ancelotti will implement.

So far, Madrid has progressed smoothly as well as in the Champions League. it's just, like I said at the beginning. they need a striker who can really be a goal machine like Benzema. proven, when Madrid played Atletico. when their striker is deadlocked in scoring goals, there is no player who can be relied on as a pure striker. Apart from all that, Madrid played the match quite well, the system implemented by Carlo Ancelotti worked effectively. It's just that, along the way, especially in the Champions League, they will meet other strong teams. and there, we will see how Carlo Ancelotti's troops will play their match.
IMO, for me personally, if Madrid wants to win trophies in various competitions, they inevitably have to bring in a pure striker, let alone an established one. Well, let's see, there is a big possibility that what I said is very wrong. but what is certain is that competition with Barcelona will not be easy in the race for the La Liga trophy.

Group F is complicated due to the shocking results witnessed. It is difficult to predict the teams that would qualify because of the presence of elite teams. However Newcastle shocked everyone with their outstanding performance last night in St James' Park stadium against Paris Saint-Germain. An entertaining game were the Magpies nailed Les Parisiens 4-1, such scores boosts Newcastle to first spot in the group, however AC Milan and Borrusia Dortmund are relenting behind, having no solid points to compete with Newcastle and PSG. Every team will focused on winning.

To be honest, I didn't watch this match because I preferred the Porto vs Barcelona match. However, if I refer to the match statistics between these two teams, PSG actually controlled the game in both the first and second half. PSG had 73% ball possession, but they didn't create many chances and only had 1 big chance, 2 shots on target from 11 attempted shots.

Well, what makes me confused is why Enrique is experimenting in a crucial match like this match. he implemented a 4-2-3-1 system, even though Enrique mastered the 4-3-3 pattern. As for PSG's ideal system, Enrique should implement 3-4-3. Or, Enrique should play Kolo Muani as the sole striker and Goncalo Ramos behind him. Maybe that way, Paris Saint-Germain will not be embarrassed in this match. Next, I'm curious about what Enrique will do in the next fight.

As for Dortmund versus AC Milan, this match is quite balanced. However, Milan has more opportunities than Dortmund. they had 3 big chances, while Dortmund had none. This match is in accordance with my estimates which I previously predicted. In the next match, this group match will still be quite exciting for us to watch, be it PSG, Newcastle, Milan and even Dortmund.

Apparently, this thread isn't as interesting as it was in last season. maybe because the teams that are part of this competition are not as competitive as the previous season when Man United, Arsenal, and teams that dropped from the Champions League, Barcelona, ​​Juventus, Sevilla and others added to the excitement of this competition. But despite all that, the Europa League matchday will be held soon. Liverpool will host Saint Gilloise at Anfield, their own home. Maybe for many of us this match is not interesting. Nevertheless, if we involve betting in it, it will certainly feel quite interesting and entertaining.
Apart from that, Leverkusen will also play a match against Molde. These two teams are much more favored than their opposing teams.

Another match that is quite interesting is Marseille vs Brighton, both teams both need to win in order to still have a chance of qualifying for the next phase. So, this match looks like it will offer an interesting match. For those who like the parlay option, the matchday of this competition may provide an attraction to get involved in betting. On this matchday, I just want to see how consistent Xabi Alonso's squad will be in their match against Molde. As for betting, the handicap option is ideal or Under/Over for the three teams I mentioned.  and, let's enjoy.

Pedri, De Jong and Raphinha are still absent and they are not listed in Barcelona's squad for the match against Porto. I know those three players are important in Barcelona's midfield and attack, but Xavi also has options. Ilkay Gundogan, Gavi and Remeu played from the first half, but Fermin Lopez or Sergi Roberto also had a chance to be substitutes in the second half.

I am also backing Barcelona to win against Porto and I am confident about that. Joao Felix, Lewandowski and Yamal will lead Barcelona's attack line from the first half, then Barcelona's defense also looks ready to withstand the onslaught of Sergio Conceicao's troop. Even though I believe in the possibility of Barcelona winning, I think this will not be an easy match for Barcelona.

After winning with a goal from Ferran Torres who replaced Lewandowski because he seemed to be having problems, Barcelona's game was still quite good and focused. although, there were several misses between the Barcelona players. Yamal's played quite well in this match, but not Joao Felix. Despite having several opportunities, 2 shots on target, 43 touches, 2 blocked shots, 1 off target, Felix did not play calm at all in this match. and yes, Barcelona had difficulties especially in the second half.

The situation in the second half Porto played more aggressively than Barcelona. They were in Barcelona's defense a lot, but were unable to take advantage of every opportunity that existed. As for the goal that was scored, it had to be disallowed because it had been caught offside first. This match is over, a narrow victory for Barcelona but it makes their position safe in 1st place in the Group H phase.
And what deserves appreciation is the Barcelona goalkeeper, Ter Stegen, he played with a good performance by making 5 saves.  Very lucky in this match, Barcelona didn't concede. Unfortunately, it looks like Lewandowski has to be pulled out because Xavi doesn't want anything to happen that becomes a serious problem. Unfortunately, Gavi got a red card, but at least Barcelona won.

In other matches, as I expected, the Dortmund vs Milan match would end in a draw. and one match, which was beyond my expectations. PSG was humiliated by Newcastle with a fairly large score. My prediction is that PSG will win this match. in fact, they were beaten by Newcastle.
2188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: October 04, 2023, 07:51:37 PM
few relationships will be damaged by gambling. Yes, this is because one of the two really loves their partner. I'm sure the partner will think "maybe he will change, maybe he will stop soon" in the end he will accompany his partner, unless it is really detrimental to his partner and also him. it makes perfect sense for the relationship to end, because it would have been a bad relationship if it continued.

And what the OP said in his thread is, gambling affects our relationships as gamblers. he explains the impacts and complaints of the negative side of gambling, which can damage a relationship with a partner. whether it causes financial tension, loss of joint savings, accumulation of debt and so on. I think there are quite a few people who experience gambling problems which have an impact on their relationship as a couple. In fact, quite a few end in separation.
Honestly, I will not close my eyes to the impacts caused by irresponsible gambling. that in fact, such phenomena often occur in the wider community.

Refers to what you say, if as a couple you love each other. Maybe, there is an urge that makes the gambler change. The point is, so as not to become dependent on excessive activity which ultimately leads to addiction. I won't deny some of the points you said, there are many people who change because of their partner. and that actually happens a lot.  and therefore also, someone who loves gambling activities like me. really need knowledge, knowledge in everything. whether it's understanding, self-control, discipline and responsibility.

My question is this, will you continue to gamble till old age, or you have planned to stop gambling at a certain age?
I am not referring to addicted gamblers that will learn a hard lesson before the quit, but only responsible gamblers that are taking all prevention measures to addiction.

~~

I can't answer that for sure, it could be that I will stop gambling in the near future. Or, I keep gambling until I'm over 50 or older. I really can't answer that at the moment, because the fact is that even now I still like betting. That's why I'm reluctant to say something that hasn't even happened yet, especially since what we're talking about is the future and when we get older. but believe me, in principle humans are creatures that can change at any time. which means, we can stop in the near future or keep betting until we are old.

For me, it all depends on how we are in the future. We can say in old age whether gambling will still be interesting and enjoyable for us. or, we enjoy the moments with our children and grandchildren more in living this life. So for me humans are creatures that are completely uncertain and can change as we get older, as well as the understanding we gain as we get older.  for now, gambling is still very fun for me, especially football betting. let's just enjoy every moment, but only to be part of the fun entertainment.

Many rumors at this time Mbappe will stay because of the club owner's statement Mbappe is now happy to be at PSG after the anxiety of last transfer season.

Another one Osimhen will extend the contract with Napoli because the owner of Napoli was equally able to convince Osimhen, this has nothing to do with the chaos on social media about tiktok even though Osimhen's agent has reported the Napoli club.

The concern is that there are so many offers to Osimhen, English clubs have started to show a lot of interest, if Osimhen's offer wants to go there then it is very likely to happen, but we never know in the future.

If it's just a one-sided claim from Nasser Al Khelaifi's statement, it doesn't determine Mbappe's future with PSG. So far there has been no official statement from Mbappe, nor has there been any news regarding the contract from both parties. Maybe, there is an agreement that has been made and is not exposed by the media. Or maybe, Mbappe remains with his commitment to ending his contract with PSG until the end of this season. We'll see, where it goes regarding Mbappe's future.

To be honest, I rarely look for information about gossip or rumors from top European players. However, I believe that Osimhen will leave next summer. The only question is, which club is truly interested in his services and is willing to dig deep into their pockets to take him. perhaps, Chelsea and Todd Boehly will try to bid for the Napoli star later. Or, it could be Manchester United who will take him to Old Trafford. that is, if United is acquired by Qatar. It could be that Real Madrid will bring him in, if they fail to bring Mbappe back to the Santiago Bernabeu next summer. and yep, there could be a lot of unexpected things coming next summer.
2191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: October 04, 2023, 06:12:06 PM
Porto vs Barcelona.

On matchday 2 of Group H of the Champions League this season, the match between Porto and Barcelona at the Estadio do Dragao will start in the next few hours. on the first matchday, Porto and Barcelona both won. Porto won the away match against Shaktar Donetsk, while Barcelona beat Royal Antwerp at Camp Nou.
In this match, Porto as the home team does not want to lose points to secure their position in the group H phase. Which means, they will go all out to provide resistance to Barcelona.
Meanwhile for Barcelona, ​​several of its core players had to be absent due to injury. Raphinha, De Jong, will definitely be absent from this match. Meanwhile, Pedri's status is in doubt. However, it could be that Pedri will be played, but starting from the bench.
Meanwhile for Porto, several of their players were also absent due to injury, including Pepe's status in doubt. but apparently, they have options instead.

Well, because I am a Barcelona supporter, of course I hope they can win this match. however, Xavi will rotate some of his players.  for the defense line, Xavi will play his core players. in midfield, there is a change in rotation. What is certain is that in the midfield there are Gavi, Oriol Romeu and IIkay Gundohan. for the front strikers, Joao Felix, Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal. and hopefully, Barcelona will play with their best performance. betting on Barcelona with odds @1.80, seems pretty good.
2192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: October 04, 2023, 05:36:31 PM
That's up for debate I guess because I think Mbappe would fit very well into a top Premier League team as well. That would be the highest competition he can look for in Europe. But I agree that Real Madrid would also be a great destination for him, but it wouldn't be as competitive in the domestic league. Though it would make an amazing attack line for Real Madrid if you combine Mbappe with Vinicius Junior. But when Liverpool one day builds a new team as well, it would be an exciting idea as well, wouldn't it? He could be mainly responsible for a new era in a club.

Yep, that's right, Mbappe would suit a top Premier League team. In fact, I believe that, playing with any big club Mbappe, AI will still play great. I don't doubt the talent he has, he is one of the big stars of his era. It's just which club is interested in bringing in Mbappe. even if he ends his contract as a free agent, however, the salary issue will be a big problem. except, if Mancester United has been acquired by Qatar.
It could also be Chelsea, Liverpool or another rich club. but what is certain is that Mbappe's future direction is still unclear. At the very least, he has expressed his big intention of wanting to join Real Madrid. Well, we'll see if Madrid will bring him to the Santiago Bernabeu.

For now, as I said from the start, Mbappe is still in the Paris Saint-Germain uniform. which means, his focus is currently focused only on the team and how he can lead PSG to advance in various competitions. well, in the next few hours. PSG will play an away match at Newcastle headquarters. Mbappe and his colleagues have a mission to get full points in this match, and return to the Parc des Princes with a win. Looks like this match will be interesting for us to watch.
2193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: October 04, 2023, 05:13:53 PM
Atletico Madrid vs Sociedad could be a big match this weekend because the conditions from Sociedad was quite good now and 5 wins from 8 matches proven Sociedad is in the good shape and so far Sociedad only lose from Real Madrid and their performance at champion league also quite impressive because Sociedad can able to win from Salzburg and draw from strong team Inter Milan

I have been notice Takefusa Kubo currently was onfire because so far during this season he has scores 5 goals and Kubo also as Sociedad top scorer and for this match Atletico Madrid manager Simeone look very confident to facing this match because during this season Atletico Madrid was very impressive during playing at home and from 3 latest home matches Atletico can able to win whole matches and Atletico Madrid seems the favourite in this match but Sociedad also is not easy opponent for them
 

The two teams are only one point apart, Atletico is in 4th position and Real Socieadad is in 5th position in the standings. Talking about Atletico Madrid, currently Atletico is hosting Feyenoord. This match will be very important for Diego Simeone's squad, to get full points to secure their position in the Group E phase. Remember, previously Atletico were held to a draw when they visited Lazio's headquarters. However, talking about the match in La Liga against Sociedad, it seems that Atltico will not let Sociedad take over their position in the standings. Apart from that, Atletico also achieved impressive results in their last 3 matches. Plus, in this meeting Atletico is more favored than the away team.

As for Real Sociedad, it is not much different from Atletico. in the last three matches in La Liga, Sociedad swept away three wins. Plus, securing its position in first place in the Champions League in Group D. In this week's match, it doesn't look like it will be an easy match for Sociedad. especially, if we refer to the H2H meeting of these two teams. Of the three meetings in La Liga, Sociedad had difficulty overthrowing Atletico. So, it's only natural that Atletico is the favorite team. Plus, Atletico doesn't want to lose points to stay in the top four of the La Liga standings. Also, Diego Simeone's squad is aiming for 3rd place which is occupied by Girona. However, we'll see later. because, currently Atletico is playing their match against Feyenoord in the Champions League group phase.

Even though it is difficult to predict this match, I think Al-Ittihad will have a chance of winning this match because if you look at it so far, Al-Ittihad's performance is quite stable.
Al-Ittihad must perform optimally in this match to be able to get points and be able to occupy first place.
looking at the odds that Al-Ittihad has are quite convincing, namely @ 1.70 while Al-Ahli @ 4.20 of course Al-Ittihad will be the favorite here, especially since Al-Ittihad will compete at their headquarters, of course this will help Al-Ittihad a little to win the match This.

In the previous match, Al Ittihad drew against Al Fayha with a score of 0-0, as well as Al-Ahli who also drew against Al Ettifaq and it seems that both teams are having problems with their strikers. In several Al Ittihad matches, it seems that Benzema was absent several times and I didn't get any important information regarding Benzema, it is very likely that he was injured.
As for Al-Ahli, their star Firmino is having problems scoring goals for his squad. Throughout his matches with Al-Ahli, he was only able to score a hat-trick on his debut.

Well, this week the two teams will meet each other in Week 9 of the Saudi Pro League. Obviously, the home team is more favored than the away team. The reason is, based on the depth of the Al Ittihad team, it is better than Al-Ahli. So it is very natural for bookies to favor the home team. but what is certain is that Al-Ahli will not be easily defeated by Al Ittihad, even though Al Ittihad is stronger and playing at its own base. My guess is that this match will be quite an exciting match. also, a chance for Firmino to prove his quality. Meanwhile, for the home team, they don't want to lose points in order to strengthen their ranking on the standings. or, shifting the ranking occupied by Al Hilal. let's wait, it looks like this match is worth watching.

Last night I watched some matches but I didn't place bets, there were many surprises that were difficult to predict. One above all was the defeat of Arsenal who, despite an excellent performance, were unable to win, a real shame because they would have deserved at least the draw but Lens were more cynical in taking advantage of the opportunities they had available. Manchester United continues to lose important points, honestly if I had bet on this match I would have predicted Manchester's victory, but yesterday Onana were unpresentable, unrecognizable , far from Onana who enchanted last year with Inter. On the other hand, Inter-Benfica and Napoli-Real Madrid were beautiful matches, Inter won 1-0 but it was a close result for what we have seen last night Inter attacked incessantly, an excellent Napoli instead lost against a great Real Madrid, a shame because a draw would have been a fair and useful result for both teams

Arsenal's match against Lens didn't live up to my expectations, they didn't play very well. There were several mistakes made by the Gunners squad, but in the end Lens was able to win this match. Plus, Lens played very closely when Arsenal was building an attack. It is clear that Mikel Arteta's squad is having difficulty dismantling the home team's defense. That's why I said that Arsenal needed a pure striker who was quite established and good at scoring goals.
Actually, I only watched this match in the second half, because I watched Manchester United in the first half. Currently, Arsenal is in second place and remains with its three points. In the second meeting at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal will have to beat Lens with a landslide score. However, before meeting in the second leg, Arsenal must defeat Sevilla first. Well, there are no words for underestimating the opposing team, Arteta must prepare his team's squad carefully.

As for Manchester United, I only watched it in the first half. and it would be a shame if they were unable to maintain their superiority. There are several points that are problems for United, but I am not interested in reviewing them. In essence, both English guardians in last night's match lost. and Manchester United's position is now in last place, it is quite difficult to qualify for this group phase. unless they are able to win all the remaining matches, both away and home.
2196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 04, 2023, 01:04:09 PM
In my opinion, Bayern Munich's strongest rivals at the moment are Stuttgart and also Leverkusen. To occupy first place, Bayern Munich must win the match against Freiburg, but it is likely that Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will chase each other on points to fight for first position in the Bundesliga and if Leverkusen is able to win the match against Koln, of course Leverkusen will still be in first place with points that are much higher than Bayern Munich and it will be increasingly difficult for Bayern Munich to catch up on points to occupy first place in the Bundesliga.

So far the performance of both clubs is in good condition and so far Xabi Alonso deserves appreciation because he has succeeded in improving Leverkusen performance so that they can occupy first place. We will see to what extent Xabi Alonso is able to make his men continue to appear impressive when they face matches in the Champions League which is of course increasingly difficult.

To be honest, I'm not in the mood to underestimate the Stuttgart squad, especially since they also have attackers who are quite productive in terms of scoring goals. However, the question is, how long will they be able to maintain their ranking in the top four of the standings. This week Stuttgart will host Wolfsburg, and I don't think Wolfsburg is an easy opponent for them to beat considering their current performance is not that bad  Let's just wait and see whether Stuttgart is able to continue with its positive trend.

Well, now we are talking about Bayer Leverkusen. In the near future, Leverkusen will play a match against Molde in the Europa League. At this time, we will not talk about whether they will win or lose in the European League competition against Molde. However, after that match, Leverkusen will host Koln at their home base BayArena. Well, with a busy schedule situation, negative impacts could happen to them. either the player is injured, or they could be experiencing fitness problems. and this could have an impact on their matches in the Bundesliga. but theoretically, Leverkusen should have won these two matches.

In the other match, Bayern will host Freiburg. After playing their match in the Champions League last night with full points, Bayern's position is quite safe in the Group A phase. Currently they have time to recover their stamina and prepare for the match against Freiburg. On paper, Bayern will win this match. If all the teams we mentioned in this post win their matches, it means the standings this week will not change. Well, for now at least we have quite competitive competition. although I believe that gradually Bayern Munich will return to the top of the Bundesliga standings.

Chelsea's current condition will indeed make everyone doubt whether they have improved or not. I personally learned from Man Utd's inconsistency and I think Chelsea could end up the same as Man Utd. It's just that Burnley should be much weaker than Chelsea. So Chelsea's chances of winning should be higher. But still Burnley as hosts is something to be reckoned with. Moreover, Burnley is currently still slumped in the relegation zone. So Burnley definitely wants the points back. At least they will try to share the points.

Mudryk will probably be much more enthusiastic in the match against Burnley. But I'm not sure whether he will score goals again or not. Chelsea's mistake this season was that they let Lukaku go by loaning him to Roma. Even though if there was Lukaku, I think Chelsea's front line would be much better. Or if Nkunku wasn't injured then of course Chelsea would be better.

It's natural that someone doubts Chelsea at the moment, considering their performance is really a mess. however, in two matches in different competitions, Chelsea started to win again. although to be honest, they didn't play with a good performance. However, we'll see who Poche will play in the match against Burnley.
IMO, Poche should do as they did against Fulham. Unfortunately, several Chelsea players are still injured, so the coach cannot be creative and experiment with the system he wants to implement. I don't know whether Broja suffered a serious injury or not. But if he is played again in the match against Burnley, at least it is better than relying on Nicolas Jackson. Or, Poche can rotate other players like Sterling for example.

The point is, he must maximize the potential of his players and adapt it to a system that suits the squad of his team. As for Mundryk, it seems he is injured and will not play in the Burnley match. We also don't know Caicedo's status yet, whether he will be absent too. However, if there are no problems with his players, Poche and his squad will be able to beat Burnley in this week's match. At least, the chance they have is bigger than the home team at this week's meeting.

Champions League Group F is the toughest group as every team in this group is very strong.

In the first round games we saw PSG beat Dortmund and AC Milan drew with Newcastle. The opponents in this round are reversed Newcastle will face PSG and AC Milan will face Dortmund.

The match between AC Milan and Dortmund will be a bit easier for AC Milan and AC Milan can win this match but the problem will arise with the match between Newcastle and PSG. 
In the match between psg and newcastle i see more chances of a draw for now but if psg can't do well then newcastle will have a chance to win this match. 

Even if PSG draw in this match, they will have a chance to win the group, but if they lose, the equation could be different.

It's not certain that Milan can beat Dortmund easily in this match, because after all, Dortmund wants to get full points in order to still have a chance to qualify for the next phase. So, in this match Dortmund will work hard to maximize their opportunities playing at Signal Iduna Park, their home base. It is true, Dortmund's performance has not yet reached the level that Terzic wants. However, at least after winning the previous two matches in the domestic league, Edin Terzic's squad has strong motivation to provide resistance to the AC Milan team in this match. Currently Dortmund is in the lowest position, like it or not they have to go all out to achieve maximum results.

As for Milan, the draw against Newcastle made their position unsafe in the group phase. Not much different from Terzic, Pioli as Milan coach will be aiming for victory in this match to smooth their position in the group phase. Well, referring to the betting odds, no one is superior in this match, both teams almost have the same odds. Dortmund with @2.41, while Milan @2.80. It is possible that this match will end in a draw. but if I had to choose, I would choose Dortmund to win in this meeting.


The other match in Group F is between Newcastle vs PSG. Currently, Newcastle has started to get back on the right track after a bad match at the start of this season. In the first match, Newcastle held AC Milan to a draw. now they will host PSG at St James' Park, their own home. What is certain is that Eddie Howe will maximize his team's squad to achieve victory in order to strengthen their position in the group phase. no different from other teams, Newcastle will target full points.
As for PSG, currently their position is in first place in the Group F phase. Luis Enrique will maximize his squad to get full points so that their position is safe in this group phase. In this match, Enrique will play his full squad when he visits England. I think this match will be very interesting, considering that PSG is in an unstable performance condition.

but talking about odds, there is only a slight difference between PSG and Newcastle. Newcastle with @2.28, while PSG @2.95.  Before the match is held, the odds can change. Well, if the PSG players play calmly enough in this match, I believe they will overthrow Newcastle even though this match is a home match. To find out more, we'll wait until this match is held.

Play for fun. If you are not playing for fun, you are doing it wrong. Gambling should be done to entertain yourself only, and always remember that gambling is not a sound financial investment. I have witnessed the horrors of people who blow their kids college funds and life savings on gambling at a Casino. Don't be one of these people. Have a daily or weekly gambling budget and learn which games you like and how to play them so that you can actually have much more fun playing them than just winging any game.

First of all, thank you for what you said in this thread. I think, there is nothing wrong with what you say, also based on what you have seen from people who have lost a lot of money from gambling. however, let me say according to my experience and understanding. I really understand what you are saying, even before you created this thread we already knew what we were supposed to do. including, the best for us.
Gambling is instant entertainment in the current era that is no longer foreign to people in cities and even the world. Gambling offers entertainment from every game that the casino platform offers, even though there are risks involved in it. and at this point, a gambler must be fully aware of all the risks of this type of entertainment. not only to be aware of, but to understand too. In fact, it involves understanding and responsibility.

To achieve fun things, in the concept of gambling, one needs a broad understanding. The idea of ​​having fun is an ideal concept, so that someone who likes this type of entertainment doesn't get caught up in terrible things like what you said. It's just that, the problem is that every person/gambler has a different point of view. also, how they treat gambling for themselves. and not everyone has a broad understanding, especially as most communities say you have to have discipline. such things, require a mindset that is aligned with the idea of ​​just “having fun.” in practice, the idea of ​​having fun is not as simple as we say. Not infrequently, even someone who has high discipline likes to get carried away, even with emotions of anger when defeat befalls us.

For me, gambling is simple. not just fun, because these ideas sometimes don't align when we have a gambling session. I mean, when we lose it means it's no longer fun. If you think or assume that gambling is complicated, dangerous and scary, you should just leave it and look for other pleasures, but for me it's simple. there are only two possibilities when I have a gambling session, winning or losing. It's just that, there are conditions that I apply in my gambling concept. The money I bet is not money that is supposed to be basic or family needs. which means, the money we prepare to have fun regardless of winning or losing. with the scenario when we lose, we will not lose our basic needs money. and this concept, quite safe for me, does not even cause problems. also, it doesn't harm the closest parties.

Ah, this time I was really bad at predicting several matches that were held today, the three matches that I predicted completely missed. Manchester United and Arsenal, missed what I previously predicted. even though, their opponent was not a very strong team. United took the lead in the 17th minute, but it didn't take long for Galatasaray to equalize the position. and the goal scored by Wilfried Zaha is Onana's weak point, he will have difficulty saving high balls like that.

In the second half, I chose to watch Arsenal. In this match too, the team representatives from the English league did not play with their best performance. After G.Jesus scored, Lens equalized and the goal was created purely from David Raya's mistake when providing a long pass which was utilized well by the Lens players. Lens scored the second goal, also due to a mistake from the Gunners defenders. They were careless and fell back too far, allowing Elye Wahi to move freely, which he finally used to score a goal. In the end, two of the Premier League club representatives fell to their opponents.
Now, United is at the bottom of Group A. In contrast to Arsenal, PSV and Sevilla ended in a draw with a score of 2-2. In the end, Arsenal was in second place in the group phase. In the second leg, like it or not, Arsenal will have to beat Lens. Also, knock out other opponents if you want to stay safe in this group phase.

Another one, Napoli vs Real Madrid. This match is not as bad or as bad as the predictions of the two teams I mentioned above. Even though I predict the match will end in a draw, I speculate for betting that both teams will score goals. and yes, the match ended with a score of 2-3. The goal created by Vini Jr was purely due to the carelessness of the Napoli players and Madrid were finally able to equalize. Madrid's 3rd goal was quite cool from Valverde's long-range shot, even though the goal was claimed to be an own goal from the goalkeeper. and yep, an unlucky day for me. but this is a gamble, not always what we predict is what we hope. Tomorrow, we still have an exciting match to look forward to.
