I really can't believe how Portugal lost this match 1-0. They found so many goal opportunities. Jota's attempt was saved by the goalkeeper superbly. Especially Ronaldo wasted very big opportunities. If we had the young Ronaldo he would score at least one of them.
I still don't understand why the Portuguese coaches choose to start Ronaldo when they can give better opportunities to the younger players in the squad who are hungry in front to prove themselves before the world cup to boost their confidence. Ronaldo is still a great player but we all know that he's not in his prime and for Portugal, it will not be in their best interest to depend on him during the world cup. Ronaldo should still be in the squad but should have reduced playing time to give opportunity to other younger players especially since he's going into retirement soon and they will need younger players to carry the National team forward.
Actually this is quite reasonable because Ronaldo is still iconic for Portugal. On the other hand he already has good enough experience against Spain which made him play from the start.
But it should be if they want to start regeneration from now on because we know Ronaldo will soon end up in Portugal and this will certainly be a problem if there is no regeneration later and young players are still quite difficult later to fill the role up front.

I do agree with this. This time barcelona can do something without him. that proves that if era for the club actually rely with him already over. IF he was coming back to the barcelona as a new player and that would be fine but the problem is once he was coming back to the club while the club is still struggling with its financial. The come of mess will become a disaster for the club.  He will be very suitable to be a new coach for barcelona in the future.
Im seeing it as a potential future career for messi

Yes, but back to Xavi, if he expects Messi, of course he thinks it's the best for him, maybe he will sign Messi next season. Regarding being a coach, I still can't predict what he will be like. Indeed, as a player he is extraordinary, but it will be different when he becomes a coach. We have to see at least one season to judge the quality of messi as a coach. So I can't rate anything for now.
He is very good as a player, but there is no guarantee that he will be good as a coach. That's something different in my opinion, because as a coach you need broad thinking, mentality, strategy and much more. I'm not disbelieving that Messi can do that, but so far I haven't seen any signs of it.



I can say for sure, the game between Barcelona and Inter Milan will be very competitive. But I put Barca ahead of Inter. We will enjoy a great match between the two teams. I expect Barcelona to get a nice win. Good luck to Inter Milan
Do not forget that Barcelona will not be strengthened by some of its flagship players. This is a consideration for me to say how the strategy of Barcelona when losing key players. Because I haven't seen them do that so far, if they succeed it will be even better so it's safe to say that Xavi was prepared for the worst. The rotation will be done here, but I don't have an idea who Xavi will choose to fill the vacancy in the line up.

If I look at the goal that was created for Spain in the 88th minute, at least it proves that Portugal is only targeting a draw. But unfortunately, their plan failed because Morata managed to score at least towards the end of the match, with this goal it would be difficult for Portugal to score in a match with only a few minutes remaining. If Portugal manage to score early then it will be a definite result for Portugal to qualify, I bet for Portugal to win and also both teams to score and it is a mistake that keeps repeating. Cool
Same thing happened to me, I bet for Portugal win and the result was quite disappointing. Looking at the game, Spain came to win the game and completely dominated the match. In the first half Portugal was able to overcome that, but in the second half their hopes were dashed after Morata managed to record his name on the scoreboard. And it was an absolute victory for Spain.
The strategy adopted by Portugal, I think, is a big mistake, because actually they are able to play more than that. However they chose to hang on and wait, the result was that they failed to maintain their position in the table.
2184  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is your diversification strategy? on: September 27, 2022, 07:35:15 PM
What just I did is that I discard coins that are not profitable anymore. I sacrifice myself losing a few bucks rather than waiting for many years for nothing but just a few cents. I usually check my portfolio quarterly and when I notice that there is an improvement, I started to look for coins that are not growing and replace them. That was not a hard task though...

Well, it was a good idea to check our investment very often so we are aware of what direction our portfolio is going and we can make some adjustments earlier rather than holding coins that are not contributing something.
Shouldn't before investing do your research first about which coins are worth investing in and will give you a profit? If I judge from what you say, I see you are not too serious in doing the analysis before putting your money in it. Because, from what you said you threw away some useless coins, that's the statement that is the question in my mind. Or maybe you are investing in a new project?

This depends on the foster children implementing strategies in the field, because when talking about genius, it is clear that they have their own game patterns in an attempt to subvert their opponents. Not only that, turning off the movement of key players for the opposing team will greatly affect the outcome of the match. Because they can be said as game creators who make the game more alive.
In this game I put more weight on Tottenham and put them as favourites. Because I see Tottenham's attacking line more alive in creating chances.
Basically, from the Arsenal revival that Arteta made, it was more dangerous, especially in the early minutes of the match or in the first half period Arsenal could consistently score goals. Moreover against a top team it will be a shocking result and therefore, although I also believe Tottenham will win for the final result but I am also wary if Arsenal can score a goal in the first half. Because if that happens, then it is very possible for Arsenal to win or end in a draw, but regardless of who wins at least this match will have some goals and of course it will be very interesting.
An interesting game, that's to be expected from these two teams in rising form. I expect open play from both teams, not just waiting for the opposing team to make mistakes. What I mean is that neither of them play it safe, because things like this often happen in big games like this. It's not that they don't have to be careful, but being careful sometimes makes the atmosphere of the game run monotonous. If you look at Arsenal's defeat against Manchester United, they are not so brave in piercing deeper into Manchester United's defense.


I don't think this match is likely to be a draw. Basically, I think Manchester United players will play with the aim of drawing the match. But Manchester City's players will be aiming to get full points from the match and occupy the top spot in the points table. Betting on this match is very risky. Nevertheless, I am willing to bet on Manchester City to win this match.
Yes, I agree that Manchester United will probably only aim for a draw in this Derby. That is enough to make them more confident to look at the match they will play next, considering the performance of Manchester City which is very impressive.
Meanwhile, in the Manchester City camp, we will try to get a win in this match to be more convinced that they are a team that is very ready to defend the title again.

The geniuses of Arteta and Antonio Conte are also part of the performance on the pitch, these two coaches will fight each other through the tactics used to make their opponents fall in this match. They will field their best squad for a victory in order to achieve their respective goals.

Actually, I really really really don't think people hodl much in this space. As far as my personal experience tells me, the more people say hodl, the less they've actually done so. It's just the mentality they have to tell others to hodl so they can sell at the high.

Like you said, the signs are when they start blaming other things/people/companies for manipulation but they don't complain when the same people are manipulating to make prices go up.
All those who are asking to hold, really they are holding? maybe or not, two types of investors are common in cryptocurrency, one is the whale investor who can manipulate the entire market. Another is the general investor who moves depending on the market conditions. Those who say to hold they are part of the general investors. Actually whale don't say anything they just take the opportunity and do their thing. Whale investors have already started their holdings while ordinary investors are forced to sell for various reasons.
From this we should learn that don't follow other people's words by justifying them 100%. It can hurt us, I don't blame it when some people have an influencer they follow. But it doesn't have to be every word we follow, meaning we have to be even more selective in choosing which ones we should follow and which ones we shouldn't. From there, it is important for us to do our own analysis which will later become a comparison between what we analyze and what other people say. That way we will be able to choose which one is better.
2188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: September 26, 2022, 05:57:26 PM
Manchester city just had to do the necessary thing by bringing Haaland.  Manchester City with Haaland I think the team is more stronger than last season.  It will be easy for Manchester city to win the Champions League. Real Madrid don't have a player that can score more goals like Halaand in Manchester city.
I agree with you. We can call Haaland goal machine, he scores goals in every game. Because of his physical structure, he is favored to score goals. When he jumps to head the other team's defenses have trouble clearing the ball. If he performs like this, I think Man City will win the title.
Manchester City have found a player they didn't have last season, and that's in Erling Haaland. It's no wonder than belief in Haaland is getting higher now, because he is able to score goals regularly in every game. Even now he leads the list of top scorers in the Premier League. And with Haaland's performance, it can be said that their chances are even greater now in the Champions League.




Sometimes even these teams are experiencing some unexpected incidents against weaker teams but the most important thing is to be consistent anyway. If they manage to stay strong despite these things then they have a powerful mindset to make it to the final and even the championship. They need some luck also of course as Manchester City didn't have that against Real Madrid last season for example.  Smiley
Last season's defeat to Real Madrid was not only because they were unlucky, but Real Madrid itself has a mentality that Manchester City does not have. We can see in the game footage how they panicked the moment Real Madrid scored. Things I didn't see from the Real Madrid squad when they had to fall behind Pep Guardiola's care.
One of them was when Rodrigo scored, and I saw the Manchester City players lose confidence, even though at that moment their chances were bigger than Real Madrid.
2189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: September 25, 2022, 07:07:44 PM
We expect the Manchester City vs Manchester United match to be competitive. Manchester United have played well and won the last few matches. But I don't think they will win against a strong team like Manchester City. Manchester City is very strong this season. Every player on the team is able to perform well. City players scored 23 goals in 7 matches. On the other hand, Manchester United's players managed to score only 8 goals in 7 matches. It is easy to understand that United's attack is very weak. I don't think it is possible to win against a strong team like City with such a weak attack.
very strong team and yet they have drawn so far against Newcastle United and Aston villa?

Anything can happen. Manchester United can pull off a surprise. it's a derby and the squad has had some changes as compared to last season.
I don't expect much from Manchester United, that doesn't mean I don't believe in their game. But for a team that has just woken up, a draw is enough to say that Manchester United are strong enough now. If we look back at last season, it's quite realistic when I just want to see Manchester United only play a draw. As Manchester City's strength is better than Manchester United's, Haaland's presence in the squad adds to their attacking power.

For Barcelona vs Inter game will not be that easy as Inter can be happy also with a draw in this game so that can make things pretty difficult.

Bayern Munich played well in the UCL but the games in their League were poor. They are in fifth place. Four games without a win. In the UCL I think Bayern Munich are the favourites to qualify for the knockout phase. Inter and Barca will probably be scrambling for second place. When compared to actually I am more sure if Barcelona win. Barcelona is pretty good in the league, while Inter is unstable. The second game certainly competed seriously for second place. The defeat to Bayern Munich is not the benchmark for Barcelona failing to qualify for the knockout Phase, there are still a few games so there are still many opportunities to have.

Bayern Munich may not have achieved the results they wanted in the Bundesliga, but things are still going their way in UCL. I think we will see Barça and Inter fighting for second place. Bayern Munich will not lose the lead to anyone. In defeats in the league, the leading team of the match was Bayern Munich, which found more positions.  We can say that they were a little unlucky in these league defeats.
Bayern Munich's victory over Barcelona became a turning point where they were more trusted to become group winners. However, there is still the second leg, where the team that now lost in the first leg will try to retaliate in the second leg. The results in the second leg will be more visible who will have more chances. Now, Bayern Munich is the leader in the group, but things can still change in the second match. I put 2 teams actually, namely Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

You probably heard of it newly and that's why it freaks you out. This has been an issue long ago and that's why it's no surprise if that's what they're asking from the Tether developers which is also connected to Bitfinex.

No need to be freaking out of it and let them handle their own compliance to what the court order has been issued to them.

We'll just wait on how they're going to respond on it.
That's right, don't get too carried away by panic, it will cost us a lot. This is actually a good thing, as it will show the transparency of Tether itself. Don't we want that, that we all want to see things transparently? From there we can assess further about this Tether.
News like this should not let us be controlled by fear.

OP you're right, because the bear market will not remain forever but it will change someday to allow people to feel bull market so that they will know that is not good to be picking whenever the price of Bitcoin is low in the market, than to use the period to buy and hold for future purpose. I guess, this your advise will really help many people to endure in this bear market so that they will smile when the price finally hit bull market soon.
This kind of thing is needed in a bear market situation like this. Because not everyone can endure seeing bitcoins in their wallets when the price is far from when they entered. When FUD is heard everywhere, it must be fought with what the OP said. It can help reduce the burden that has been eroded by their slightly declining mentality.
Actually fear can be fought like this, coupled with the statistics from the past that this has indeed happened.
2193  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Educating people on Bitcoin for free on: September 21, 2022, 06:32:05 PM
Proper education is the surest way to becoming a stable bitcoin holder, and why there have bee so much miss information in the market it because most people that hold Bitcoin are with the mindset of gaining 10x profits which always breed frustration when their desires is not forthcoming .
So the place for education should be prioritize before diving into bitcoin because is the only way the proper process will be learned and a lot of mistakes newbies make will be minimized since they already know such things as wallet and wallet securities and how to use different wallets.
Indeed, basically everything must be based on knowledge, including bitcoin. But it is undeniable that now many are getting into bitcoin just to get rich quick. Though that is the biggest mistake, they only see when it's sweet, but when it's bitter and sour, they don't want to see. That is one of the reasons why many people fail when investing here. Because they do not know the basic concept of bitcoin itself.
How can we get profit, when we don't know what we are doing.
2194  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LUNA PUMP on: September 20, 2022, 11:31:31 AM
Just logged in my Binance now and am seeing a massive gain. 10$ is currently worth 28.7$.
I wouldn't consider such increase a massive gain, considering how hard Luna dumped. I was affected by that ignominious fall which has been dubbed the fall of the year. No, I didn't buy before the crash. I was one of those who bought when it was crashing thinking it would revert but not knowing we were catching a falling knife. Ours was later tagged Luna classic or whatever shit they call it now. Luna is  a huge disappointment. It wrecked a lot of people.
Now it's natural that many people don't believe what Luna says anymore, even though they are innovating as we see today. How much damage did Luna cause when they fell. That trust cannot be rebuilt by what is done now.
Honestly, I'm not interested although lately I've seen some people get from the classic Luna. I think of it as nothing more than a fruit that looks sweet, but is actually bitter.
I also assume the person who owns Luna now is the one who threw the money away.

We have to think carefully before doing that, it will be very unfortunate when we have a piece of land but it is not managed. We must have criteria before making a land sale and purchase transaction, for example a strategic place and so on. Even though our original purpose of buying land in the left behind is for the future, but we must make good use of it.
In my place, many say that buying a vehicle such as a car, electronic device or other goods is too expensive, they even say they don't have the money to buy it. But if they were offered a piece of land, they readily paid for it on the spot. In fact, when compared to land prices, it is not cheaper than electronic goods or the like. This makes me think, land is a property asset that cannot be underestimated.
2196  Economy / Economics / Re: Education on: September 19, 2022, 05:03:17 PM
I will not talk too far, as well as talking about the success achieved from or not we get an education (in this case formal education). Let's talk about where we start our education. Education is not always about learning, but it covers all aspects of life, I think we agree on that.
Education starts from the smallest environment, namely the home. And the first people to educate are certainly our parents, or the closest people if we are less fortunate to be born without parents or other things (apologies in advance). From there we start it (education), which will later become the basic foundation for us. Then after that is the environment around us that will shape our personality. I'm not trying to put a formal environment for the umpteenth place, but I'm here trying to say that actually our education starts from what I explained earlier.
2197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Well! Bitcoin doesn't have this problem on: September 19, 2022, 04:20:07 PM
The problem I see here is the part where the hospital or the one doing the services would have a hard time dealing with crypto because they might have to do some legal stuff in accounting to account for that. It will depend on the acceptance of BTC. If the hospital is willing to, I think it would be okay, or find someone willing to trade it for you locally.

But I think the lesson here is that if you controlled the actual wallet, she wouldn't have been in that situation; I think we should all agree on that.
Yes it was the path he took after many ways he did but as a result he was still struggling to get his money. But the steps he took endangered not only himself but many people.
I understand and realize that there is a process that we must go through even if it is our own money. However, we must be annoyed when we have to go through a convoluted process in urgent circumstances.
2198  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Some say Bitcoin is dead but Bitcoin is not dead on: September 18, 2022, 01:09:37 PM
Those people are waiting for a chance to be right, they have been too late to bitcoin and couldn't make any profit from it like we did, so what they want to see is bitcoin dying so that they could say "I was smart by not investing into bitcoin, you are an idiot for investing into something that died" and every time it goes down they believe such a thing is possible.

But, the reality is that we just had a drop in the prices just like any other market, look at other markets and you will see it too, and that was the main reason why I believe that we have invested into bitcoin because it moves like other markets when it is about direction but the amount it moves is huge.
Yes, their justification is always heard when Bitcoin has decreased. And they will laugh when many people complain about the price of Bitcoin that falls. Things like this they want to see, that people who invest in Bitcoin complain. It is an opportunity for them to continue to say things that we have often heard.
But we don't need to respond too much about what they say, because basically they never feel what we enjoy here.
2199  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not panic. Everything will get better on: September 17, 2022, 07:51:52 AM
The more you get into panic, more will be the loss. With cryptocurrency the user need good patience and the ability to hold long term. There'll be immediate market changes on the upward as well as downward direction. By the time some decision out of emotion will cause massive loss. By the time it is good to hold than worrying about the decline in the value of cryptocurrency while holding.
This goes back to where our ability to manage our finances is. I can say that some of the panicked people are the ones who invest with money that shouldn't be used by it. Because when someone invests using money that is specifically for investment they will be able to control this panic. One of the reasons why people panic is because they lack money for necessities.
I am not sure - how people react when they are in panic.
My hand and feet turn cold and my heart races and it become difficult to concentrate - Now I have noticed that panic has a bad effect on me - and I have to be easy in making decision.
So it is right panic does not bring in any good. So better relax!
Decisions made during a panic can certainly have a negative impact. How not, when in a calm and cool-headed situation, sometimes that decision can be potentially wrong, especially when our heads are hot.
But it's not easy to control our psychology to see something we don't want. I'd better shut down anything to do with it (cryptocurrency) and come back when things are calmer.

When the price of bitcoin drop to $18k many said bitcoin will crash  0. I don't really blame people who talk bad about bitcoin, they think criticising bitcoin will make people not to buy bitcoin.  With all the bad things they say about bitcoin,  people still go for bitcoin as the best digital currency.
This kind of thing will always be with us, because until now there are still many people who do not like bitcoin. And when bitcoin experiences a bloodbath, of course it becomes an opportunity that will be used to create new fears. Yes they assume that bitcoin will soon meet its end.
And it's true we can't blame people like that, only time will tell, bad words about bitcoin.
