Bayern Munich upcoming match against FC Koln, on the paper Bayern is favorite team will get three points but regarding many Bayern Munich's player dominance for playing with their national team I doubt easily will beat FC Koln. In this season, Bayern Munich still strong team in Bundesliga and one of two teams after Bayern Leverkusen still unbeaten in domestic league. I don't sure with any surprised result regarding with FC Koln on the poor performance this season looking their current standing on relegation, win 1 of 11 matches is very poor performance for FC Koln and how possibility will beat bayern Munich with impressive performance and top 2nd standings position in domestic league awhile. I think easily for Bayern Munich win above three goals in this match regarding Thomas Tuchel will play with their usually regular position although many of them just get few days rest after playing for their national teams.
Normaly it should be easy for Bayern Munich to win that game against Cologne and its possible that they get destroyed then.
But what is normal today in the german league and its also possible that we will see a different game from Cologne as they showed in the last weeks.
With a bit of luck and when Cologne have a good day i say that they can make a surprise for a draw but i guess that Munich will win that match.

I honestly do not think that Bayern Munich is going to face any problem, trying to beat Koln in the next match. They are currently in fairly good form and I don't see how they might actually be able to lose in this match. If anything they are going to be very determined to get all the three points from this match because they need to compete for the title. I don't think we have recently seen them be in the second position, consistently for such a long time in a single season. if I were Bayern Munich, I would have taken Leverkusen very seriously.
Anyone who has been following the performance of the Bayern Munich team since the start of the season can attest to the fact the team is currently on fire and can't be stopped by a club like Koln. Bayern has been tearing teams apart and against Koln, I don't expect any result apart from a win for the reigning German Bundesliga champions. Koln for sure isn't gonna play the game without hope of getting something out of the game but I think the don't have all it takes to get a good result against Bayern Munich.

That's very sad for Xavi and Barcelona to see Gavi getting injured like this. I think these FIFA days we recently saw made many players injured and now Gavi is injured while he is a key player in Barcelona.
In the game between Spain and Georgia, Gavi couldn't continue the game after 24 minutes and he left the field while crying.
It seems he is injured hard and he is going to be out for a long time.



After Ter Stegen, now it was Gavi's turn to suffer an injury and it appeared he was suffering from pain in the match which made him have to leave the field early. Maybe this is the worst international break ever considering that so many players are injured and quite a few of these players are key players at each club. It is reported that Gavi suffered a serious knee injury and it will definitely take a long time to recover. Xavi must be able to rotate his players in the upcoming match which is getting closer and it is possible that he will give Fermin Lopez full opportunity to fill the void left by Gavi.

Im not seeing it as a serious problem when gavi will be out till next season. It's caused by there is still someone who capable enough to replace his position like yamal. The only problem if there was no good goal keeper like stegen. So many times stegen was helping barcelona to keep its club from conceding goals by its opponent. Missing gavi won't give big impact to the club as there was a player that is in the same level as him. The only problem if missing stegen may make the defensive line of barcelona becomes even weaker than before.
Stegen has been always making excellent save that helped barcelona a lot. Missing him is going to be a disaster for the club. I hope stegen will able to recover as soon as possible. This is why i don't really like players played in international break.

I don't know if this is an essential issue for Barcelona. But that is a sad thing for Gavi himself. Gavi suffered an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee - a severe injury that can take a player at least 8 months to recover. However, I still don't know the extent of the injury, but seeing him leave the field, it seemed like the problem was severe. He's really worried. Gavi is only 19 years old, which could affect his career if the injury is serious. He didn't think these things could happen to him. I agreed that there would be another player on the team who could replace Gavi. But this is a shock to coach Xavi because Gavi is a critical factor in how he operates the style of play he built at Barca.

Stegen will return to Barcelona and undergo in-depth health tests. They will have a trip at home to Rayo Vallecano. Stegen seems fine.
This current international break has been one of the worst for big players of different clubs as the reports of injuries has been numerous. A lot of first team players of the big European clubs has picked up injury in this international break and it's definitely gonna affect the performance of affected clubs.
Gavi has been one of the best players (if not the best player) of Barcelona since the start of the season and surely his injury which the duration hasn't been announced is gonna be a big blow to Xavi Hernandez's teams. His injury adds to the series of Barcelona players that are currently sidelined as a result of injury
2183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is the largest sports bet you have ever placed, and what was the result on: November 20, 2023, 08:35:05 AM
did that experience cause you to play more or less? and do you still bet?
The experience made me realise that it is not the amount you use for gambling that will make you win and that betting with big amount and big odds does not guarantee winning just like better with small amount and big odds does not also assure winning. It is important to maintain to your bankroll and not over bet by increasing the amount you use in gambling, or increasing the number of times you gamble. You will be lucky gambling when you will be lucky, it does not have to be due to the amount you used in gambling.
Like you rightly said, betting with big amount of money on big odds doesn't guarantee that a gambler is gonna win his stakes but it does provide more chances of winning than the small odds because  it's always easier for big odds to play than small odds.
That being said, I think the major factor that determines the chances of winning in gambling is how lucky a gambler can be.

Fenerbahçe started like this last season and finished the league badly. Fenerbahçe always has this problem, they can't find a solution to this problem.
This year the league will be really competitive, Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe are the favorites this year.

Fenerbahce have really been in a good form this season compared to last season though they weren't too bad last season as they finished second. This season they need to continue in this great form and for the fact that they've been scoring more goals in most of their matches will really help them alot, for now they are in same points with Galatassary but Fenerbahce is leading them far on goal difference. Teams that tends to score more goals are most likely to win their matches because if you have good forwards that can finish well by scoring goals then there will really be chances of winning matches.

I don't think it's important that they score a lot of goals, it's important that they win games. Yes Fenerbahçe are scoring a lot of goals this season but that doesn't mean they will be champions.
I think Fenerbahçe's goalkeeper is bad, I think he will score a lot of goals against Galatasaray because our offensive line is strong.
Anyway the important thing is stability.
Judging by the performances of the top two teams in the Turkish Super Lig, I think goals difference might be the decider of who wins the league title this season. Fenerbahce has a been very impressive alongside reigning champions Galatasaray. They're currently on the the same number points after the first 12 games of the season but Fenerbahce is occupying the number one spot because of their better goal difference. For a Fenerbahce to stand a better chance of winning the league title this season, they must score more goals why winning as many marches as possible

Didier Deschamps the coach of France's national team accnoued good news about the player of PSG, Warren Emery.
France had an amazing performance against Gibraltar and they won the game with a 14-0 result but the sad thing in this game was about Emery.
In the 16th minute of the game, Emery got injured hard and he couldn't continue the match and we were thinking he was going to be out for a long time but Deschamps hoped this player would return soon.



https://www.sport1.de/news/internationaler-fussball/2023/11/deschamps-kein-bruch-bei-zaire-emery
Gosh, he is a young PSG player who is shining at the moment and his performance so far with PSG has been truly impressive. He is still very young and is a starter for Luis Enrique and because of his contribution to PSG through goals and assists, he was called up by the French national team to play in the qualifying match for Euro 2024. But unfortunately he also had bad luck with this injury and I think PSG has now lost an important player ahead of this week's crucial match. If we look at the look on his face, he seems to be experiencing discomfort due to this injury and he will definitely miss the next few matches.
The injury to Zaire Emery will definitely be a big blow to Paris Saint Germaine manager Luis Enrique and that's because of how influential the young lad has been to the team's success since the start of the season.
I don't how long the young star is gonna be sidelined with the injury but I know the manager will be hoping his injury isn't gonna be a serious one

Quote from: JeffBrad12
Manchester has been targeting reece james even kalvin phillips. Pep has been also trying to get the young talented players to be developed. Manchester city has been also making pre preparation to face the winter transfer season. There will be so many things that need to be done by manchester city. Finding a replacement for kyle walker and de bruyne was a must. This is also the main reason pep is looking for someone who is capable enough, like them.

Olmo for de bruyne, Reece james for walker. Probably they are best choices by pep.
Why are you bothered about the present situation of Manchester City, because I know they can survive without these players and having them around is basically important on the same chapter. Pep Guardiola have everything under control and he's immensely working to improve his team's performance by bringing in more prominent signings next summer, we know Pep Guardiola signings and how these players transform to be better players. He doesn't go for big names, rather he go straight forward for the bigger average players in mediocre teams.

Present situation of Manchester city is not too bad for their coach not to handle within two matches, and you cannot use Manchester city to compare Manchester united that is still struggling with small teams that can't withstand Manchester city in this season. Despite De Bruyne and other players that had injuries are not yet back to Manchester city, they are still toping some teams that their players are fully on ground but they are still experiencing some challenges. I believe, Manchester city coach will definitely sign some potential players that will make the team to continue function like the way it function last season for Manchester city to embraced Many titles , which they will still like to introduce the same strategy in this season to make it happen again in this champions league competition and other competitions too.
The rumor of Manchester City trying to sign Chelsea captain Reece James I don't think is ever gonna happen considering the importance of the player to his current club and the fact that Manchester City is also a major local rival of Chelsea.
Pep Guardiola is one manager tha always t wants to have the best players in his team which is the main reason behind his success of his managerial career. The current squad of Manchester City is filled with world class players and I think he should be able to use the current team to win titles this season

Portugal finished the group with 10/10. I don't think anyone expected such a result from them, but I think it's safe to say that they had a really good group stage. Today they won 2-0 against Iceland in the last match and managed to score 36 goals in 10 matches. They conceded a total of 2 goals in all these matches. We can say it is a good statistic.
Slovakia, on the other hand, won 2-1 against Bosnia-Herzegovina after falling behind 1-0 and finished 2nd in the group. Maybe we could have seen a different result if Gojkovic had not been red carded.
Luxembourg, on the other hand, managed to defeat the easiest team of the group even though they were red carded early. In the 5th minute Sinani was red carded and left his team down to 10 men very early on. The away team did not give up and won the match with a single goal. Liechtenstein thus lost 10 out of 10 matches.
The Portuguese national team's performance in the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifyers is unarguably the best performance by any European nation that competed in the qualifying series of the European championship.
Since Roberto Martinez took over the managerial position of the country, he's significantly improved their general performance. His relationship with the skipper Cristiano Ronaldo I think has also been another factor that's made his reign as the national team manager a success. He'll have to prove himself more when they play in the European championship next summer
2188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: November 20, 2023, 06:27:03 AM
~snip~
What the Saudi Pro League is doing might not be the best long-term plan, I'm beginning to think. Bringing in famous players like Ronaldo and Neymar makes news and increases popularity, but what about long-term success? It's possible that relying only on star power, especially from experienced players, might not be enough to improve the team's general quality

We should think about the future, right? Your league's ability to grow and get better depends on its young, skilled players. One problem is that it's hard to get these young players to choose the SPL over well-known European teams. It's to advance their careers, win titles, and get noticed in the major levels. For the SPL to be successful in drawing this important group, they'll need to come up with something equally appealing

I think that is going to change though. Because it is rumoured that the Saudi Professional League is in talks with UEFA about including them in the Champions League competition. So if they actually get included in the Champions League competition, I think a lot more young players are going to be interested in going to the Saudi league. Especially when they see that they are offering a lot more money. But as I said, it is only a rumour. And I still don't know whether it will actually happen, and even if it does when it will happen.
The decision to sign many football veterans from the  European scene I think can never be a long term plan to improve the quality of football in the Saudi League because most of these players barely have few more years to play professional football before retiring from the the beautiful round leather game. But I think the Saudi League is signing these players for another reason and that's to get global audience and popularity. At the moment, I think they've gotten what they really want when it comes to advertising the league to the world because at the moment, almost every part of the world now discusses about the Saudi League thanks the the presence of football superstars in the league.
Now that they've gotten what they want in terms of global recognition, I think it's now high time they start developing young talents in the country in other to remain popular in world football.

January will be here soon and that doesn't mean the Saudi league teams can be patient. It is reported that Al-Ettifaq and Al-Ahli will compete with each other to get the signature of Arsenal player Thomas Partey. There has been no further confirmation regarding the offer that will be made and it is certain that the amount is quite large considering that he is also a good European player. Now it seems that the rumors that have been circulating for quite some time about Thomas Partey's future are true and Arsenal will certainly benefit greatly from this transfer with a big fee in the deal.
This rumor has spread widely on social media, whether it's true or not, it seems like Mikel Arteta doesn't really need Thomas Partey anymore and if I'm not mistaken, Thomas Partey doesn't have the opportunity to play for Arsenal this season so selling to Saudi Arabia is not a problem because Arsenal already strong enough without him and this is also an opportunity for Mikel Arteta to use the proceeds from the sale of Thomas Partey to recruit new players so he can strengthen the depth of the Arsenal squad and I am sure the two clubs from Saudi Arabia are willing to pay quite a large amount to recruit this player.
Thomas Partey can continue the rest of his career in football to play in Saudi Arabia, at least playing there provides enough playing time so that Thomas Partey's talent is not wasted.
Thomas Partey who was once the pillar of the Arsenal midfield currently looks like a player who's surplus to requirements at the Emirates stadium and that's why I believe that the numerous reports about a potential move to the Saudi League might be very true.
The news of his proposed departure I don't think will be surprising to the club's manager Mikel Arteta because he's definitely aware that a player like Partey will want to leave the club and go to where he'll get more playing time. A move to the Saudi League wouldn't be a bad idea for the Ghanaian considering how the financial packages that comes with offers from Saudi clubs

Another topic from the "golden advice series." If you feel addicted, talk to someone.
It's pretty much like telling someone, if you're getting abused by your husband, leave the house and get help.
If you feel sad, go meet some friends and you're going to feel better.
If you get addicted to drugs or alcohol, go to a rehab and they'll help you.

Thanks for saying the obvious, OP. I'm sure this saved some addicted gamblers from falling deeper into the bottomless pit of addiction.
What you just said about addicted gamblers getting help by talking to people around them is absolutely true but one big challenge that makes most of the the addicted gamblers not disclose their gambling habits to anyone is because of the fear for being harshly judged. The world of today are filled with people who would rather judge someone for his shortcomings instead of helping the person to overcome his predicaments. It's the stigmatization that comes with opening their addiction in gambling that stops a lot of addicts from telling anyone.

I don't think that Nice can even cause any problems for PSG because we know Nice is not a team at the same level as PSG and these two teams are obviously got a much different amount of budget. In fact, Nice didn't buy superstar players as PSG did or they don't have a famous coach like Enrique in their team and this is a good reason for us to say Nice can only race with PSG but at the end of this season, again, PSG is going to win the French League title and Nice can try for the second place of the table.

Totally agree with what you're saying, PSG is like a football powerhouse with a bigger budget getting all those superstar players and a famous coach, surely PSG is going to win the league again and again. Nice might find it hard to compete at that level i mean Nice has no chance to challenge PSG.  but it's interesting that it's gunning for that second spot.
Nice is currently one of the most consistent teams in the French Ligue 1 title but unfortunately for them, they're sharing the same league with Paris Saint Germaine who are absolutely better than Nice when it comes to quality of players and general performance and that's why many are of the opinion that Nice doesn't stand a chance to win the league title ahead PSG. Paris Saint Germaine I think have found the best playing pattern that'll help bring out the best from the entire squad.

I don't know for sure how many Real Madrid players will be out through injury until January, but losing Bellingham, Camavinga and Vinicius will have a negative impact on their performance. Barcelona experienced the same case due to player injuries, but currently most of its players have recovered even though they have to find their form again after a long absence.
Girona can capitalize on this calamity facing the other teams and make sure that do not loose any other games for the period and weeks tha Real Madrid will be struggling. There is a sense of teamwork among the Girona players, and a sense of possibility, so they can actually keep playing thos season without loosing any more games. Real Madrid's next game is an away game to 16th place Cadiz, that game should not be the game where Real Madrid should start loosing points.

Girona can even win the game against Athletic Club in the next week they have. But the fact about Girona is I think they are going to lose their place and this team doesn't have the enough potential to be at the top of the La Liga table at the end of this season.
Other teams with the much better players and more investments couldn't have this good performance and I'm wondering how a team like Girona can be in the first place in the league.

Undoubtedly, Girona doesn't possess the kind of quality players and depth in squad like that of the other big teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid but the club's manager has helped build the team to become one of the best in the country at the moment . Many are of the opinion that Girona aren't gonna be as competitive as they are currently till the end of the season.
While many are waiting for the decline in form of Girona, they might pull a big surprise by winning the the league at the end of the season.

Sancho and Antony are two names that I think Man United should be ready to cut losses on these two deals.
It is already certain that Jadon Sancho is going to leave Manchester United in January, either on loan or in a permanent deal, after the fall out with manager Erik Ten Hag, there is definitely no way back for Sancho into the Manchester United team, he has been completely separated from the team and has even been removed from the players' Whatsapp group chat, his agent must be looking for a new club for him already.

That being said, i don't think United would be ready to sell Anthony now, he has greatly underperformed, but they bought him for quite a lot of money and no team would even be willing to pay half of that money for Anthony, they would give him more time or send him out on loan next summer, it all depends on how he performs from now until the end of the season.
The current issue between Manchester United boss Erik Ten Hag and their winger Jadon Sancho escalated to this point because of the fact the player's arrogance and that I think is an attribute that should be found among a young footballer of Sancho's age.
After the alleged altercation between the player and the manager happened, the manager demanded an apology from the young star as the only solution to whichever problem they were having and the only thing that can make him recall Sancho back to the club but unfortunately, he proved too stubborn to apologise. He's surely gonna leave during the January transfer window
2194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: November 19, 2023, 11:08:17 PM
In some nations it's 18 and in some it's 21. I think 18 is enough, like for example in the USA kids could go to college and live all by themselves and could end up studying whatever the yare going to be in the future, and could even buy guns, and yet the yare not capable of getting a beer without permit, like there needs to be someone older with them. I am sorry, but when you are 18 and at college, being able to buy a gun and not being able to buy a beer seems like weird.

Same goes for gambling, they can't gamble, but they are capable of making their lifelong decision on what they want to major, I am sorry but how does that make sense. You can make a decision that "may" impact 40 years of your life, but you can't bet 100 dollars on a team to win that week? That is as silly as it gets. I think 18 is enough, you get to decide on which college and which major, so you get to drink a beer and bet on the game as well if you want, should be done together.
people no longer think about any particular age in gambling again,the world is so corrupt to the extent that no one cares whether a child is upto the age of gambling or not,and secondly,in this present generation,children grow too fast that you won't be able to know the difference between an adult and a child because what they eat makes them look so mature and big,and you won't even think of asking them of their age,because they look like adults.but in the real sense,a child is supposed to think of gambling from the age of 16,we can no longer use 18 because they are already too big,and have known everything by 18., therefore,16 is the appropriate age for any child who wants to gamble.
The official adult age of some countries varies from other and that's why in some countries, their minimum age if gambling is 21 years while others are 18 years which I think is also good but that doesn't mean that some of the online gambling sites who doesn't allow any individual of whichever age to access their sites and gamble in them.
I think the online gambling platforms needs to do more to regulate the age bracket of their customers so it'll help stop underage children from gambling online

Talking about the competition for first place in the Bundesliga, it is clear that Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will continue to chase each other for the Bundesliga title and it all depends on Dortmund and Sturrgart if these two clubs can appear consistently again and can continue to add points. I am sure these two clubs will be part of the competition. a club that will prevent the top clubs from getting the Bundesliga title.
But I still believe that no matter how strong Bayern Munich's competitors are, in the end the first place will still be taken over by Bayern Munich at the end of the season like last season.
Xabi Alonso have proven himself worthy to manage Leverkusen for longterm and he's not going to give up until he achieved a major trophy for the club. Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel have become a regular spectacular instrument to manage the club, he's privileged to handle such an elite Germany club. He's presence is enough to enchanced the team's performance this season. Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich have grown to become rivals for the Bundesliga title this season. They're both competitive and constitute brilliant squad capable of winning all opposition this season.

The race for the title looks like it will only happen to Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, while for Stuttgart and Dortmund they cannot be included in the title race this season. Because anyway, at this moment Bayer Leverkusen is extraordinary because Bayer Leverkusen managed to be unbeaten in all competitions. Therefore, it seems that it will not be easy for Bayern Munich to take over the top position of the Bundesliga standings this season. It seems, the only way for Bayern Munich to take over the top position again, it looks like Bayern Munich needs to expect bad results for Bayer Leverkusen for the next few matches. Because ya, if Bayer Leverkusen manages to continue to win and or draw, which means unbeaten, then Bayer Leverkusen will remain at the top of the table and make it even stronger there.
Since the new season for the German Bundesliga kicked off, Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund have been the other three teams that are trying to stop Bayern Munich who has won the league title for the past 11 consecutive years from winning the league title once again at the end if the season but from all indications, I think Bayer Leverkusen looks like the team who are surely gonna fight to the last match week of the season to stop Bayern Munich's dominance in the league.
Borussia Dortmund and Stuttgart are doing well in the league judging by their current performance, I don't think they're as competitive as Bayer Leverkusen.

I think salah is gonna be one of the incoming players in the nexts seasons i dont know if in the next one or in two ahead, because he still being so important for Liverpool team, so i dont know if they want to see him leaving to Saudi Arabia, but surely he is gonna end there.

Of course, we have heard rumors about him for some time, Al-Ittihad is a team that has great intentions to recruit him, but the recruitment plan did not materialize because Liverpool did not have enough time to find a replacement for Salah at Liverpool. In fact, in several mainstream sports media, I saw news that SPL officials would fully support Al-Ittihad in getting Salah.

Al Ittihad is making changes faster than they should normally, because this team couldn't get good results this season even after hiring many players and spending money on famous players like Benzema during their last summer.
That's why they fired the Portuguese coach Nuno Santo and Marcelo Gallardo is going to start working in the Saudi League soon. This coach has many achievements and Al Ittihad hopes to improve their team with the new coach they got.


During the summer transfer window, Al Ittihad was one of the most busy Saudi League club in the transfer market as they signed good number of European based players including players like Ngolo Kante as well as former Balon D'or winner Karim Benzema but unfortunately for the club their addition of high profile players to the club hasn't helped them to be at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings.
Signing Mohammed Salah next summer isn't the solution to club's poor performance rather they should try and find a manager that'll best blend the team together and make them play more like a team than like star individual players.

When it comes to the Atalanta - Napoli game it is a matchup between two very close teams. Bookmakers are thinking the same as well by giving nearly the same odds to these teams for the win. It would be a huge risk to bet on a side here. Because it is open for every kind of result. These teams have nearly the same statistics in the standings at the same time.

Napoli are a really solid scorer team in away games so far. Maybe this could help the game become more delightful to watch. If I decide to bet on this game my choice would probably be both teams to score. I don't expect the opposite from two very productive teams here.  Smiley
Atalanta game against Napoli next weekend is expected to be one the strongest games next weekend in the Italian Serie A because Atalanta who are currently one point behind fourth placed Napoli knows that a win in that game will simply take them above Napoli in the league table while Napoli players will definitely want to help their new manager Walter Mazzarri start his spell at the club with a win.
Napoli's striker Victor Osimhen is currently injured and might not feature in that game but whatever happens, I expect Napoli to either win or draw the game.

It's true, Zidane decision is very difficult to predict, especially regarding his future. There are many events that remind us all of the surprises he has done in the past, both as a player and as a manager. The growing rumors linking him with Manchester United could be true, and it could be that Zidane has rejected the offer previously. Maybe in the future The Red Devils top officials will try to contact him again, as a replacement for Ten Hag, who is currently almost failing to meet the team expectations.
Indeed, in this case Zidane's decision in the end no one will be able to guess it but I still believe that he is in the EPL club whether it is at Manchester United or another club in the EPL it is an impossibility that will not happen.
It is not too important for the reasons discussed because we all know that in some of his statements Zidane said he still would not be willing at an English club and rumors about Zidane in the EPL are not once or twice but there have been many who rumored it especially after he left Madrid but Zidane's answer remained the same and I still feel that at this time his decision will also never change by not looking at the EPL club as a destination for his coaching career.
Zinedine Zidane is one manager that's made himself so controversial with his regular decisions especially the ones that has to do with his managerial future that it's now very difficult to predict his next destination to continue his managerial career but I think a club as big as Manchester United can as well lure the Frenchman to the Old Trafford whenever they get rid of the club's current manager Erik Ten Hag.
Rumours has it that he's already rejected Manchester United offers but I don't think that report is coming from a reliable source

Sometimes we can see abrupt endings from any good team, but for different reasons. For instance, if Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen play against each other in the quarterfinals, I fear we have to accept that one of them has to go and it doesn't really have to do with their performance. Maybe that is the preliminary final game of the competition so to speak. And then one team will lose and nobody will remember the reason why. It was because the two best teams met each other in the quarters.

That's why I hope that they can avoid to be against each other for as long as possible. Hopefully not before the semifinals. But with some luck in the drawings, I agree that Bayer Leverkusen will be around in the Europa League for a few more rounds at least.


Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen are two teams that should be taken into account in the hunt for the Europa League championship trophy this season. Both clubs have complete squads and attributes to lead the list of favorite teams to win, and have coaches who have clear tactics. If the two teams met earlier, then the match would be one of the most anticipated matches by many people, like an ideal final.
 
Apart from Liverpool and Leverkusen, other teams that will join the Europa League from the Champions League also have the opportunity to become title contenders. Sevilla, Man united and Milan are the teams that I hope will join here, and they will be a threat to the teams that are already in the Europa League at the moment. although actually I understand that the three clubs are experiencing difficulties in their respective groups each.
If not the fact that the draw for the quarter finals and the semi finals aren't fixed, I would suggested that the organizers of the UEFA Europa League competition finds a way not to pair Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen against each other in any of the two stages if the competition. But unfortunately for most football fans across the globe that have been following the Europa League, they two most strongest teams in the competition this season might be facing each in the knockout stages.
Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen has been the best sides in the competition this season and a final between the two teams will make it more interesting but we might not see that happen this season.

There's a rehabilitation center for those addicted to every thing especially drugs and gambling related addiction, It is helpful to a person who don't have a family to take care of them and You're right! If a person is willing to get better, He will put his best to avoid every thing that may affects him to become obsess in a thing. It's easy to be said but we can't say that in order to become responsible gambler, people should learn to have a self control but in reality, once you're in the situation, You can't control it.
But help and support from the family is really needed by gambling and drug addicts because from there, they can see that their family will always be there for them and want to accompany them during their recovery period. Those who are addicted to gambling and drugs will also have the enthusiasm to continue to persevere during their recovery period, so perhaps this will speed up the therapy process because the addicted person will see that they have the opportunity to cure their addiction. They will not doubt themselves and can change things for the better. That is why the presence of his family can add to his enthusiasm for life because he sees that his family always accompanies him during therapy sessions and waits for him outside after he finishes his therapy period.
It's actually not an easy task to make a gambler quit his gambling activities especially the addicted gamblers because not matter how you try to make them see reasons why they should stop gambling, they'll still want to gamble more. I've seen a gambler who was sent to the rehabilitation center before but still went back to gambling immediately he regained freedom from the rehab he was sent to.
Now that's why I think it's more necessary to convince  addicted gambleyr to accept that their addiction isn't good and would be very detrimental to their future. Make them see enough reasons to understand that gambling isn't good for them, accept to do away with gambling before sending them to a rehab facility to finally talk them out of gambling while engaging in other more meaningful things that'll help them forget about gambling
