Ok im understand. It seems that getting a draw is more likely in this match. You are right that Al-Taawoun is still much better than Al-Ettifaq. And after I looked at Al-Ettifaq's match history in the last few weeks, it turns out that, as you said, Al-Ettifaq didn't get many points and instead more often drew or lost. And it looks like I won't bet on Al-Ettifaq because it seems quite risky. even though they are hosting.

---

Well, I also don't judge Al-Taawoun's overall performance based on that match alone. But in that match, I saw several clear gaps that Al-Taawoun had which were actually quite worrying. But after I researched it again, it seems that Al-ETtifaq's performance is actually much more worrying. But as hosts, maybe they will be difficult to beat. So I agree that a draw seems more likely to happen.

There is an opportunity for Girona to win the title this season. But it's not a big chance. Because there is still not a big difference in points between Girona and Real Madrid at the moment. A difference of 2 points with Real Madrid is clearly still possible that these two clubs will continue to take turns in occupying the top of the standings. But so far Girona has really provided a different kind of excitement this season. Because previously it was rare for a new challenger to compete for the title. And it looks like getting a ticket to the UCL can indeed be a reality for Girona this season. As long as they can maintain the consistency they currently have until the season ends.

But it's hard for us to believe that Barcelona and Atletico Madrid can compete with Girona this season. So currently there is a fairly wide difference in points between Girona and Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. With a difference of 7 points, it is certainly not easy for Barcelona to narrow the gap.

This season I hope Barcelona will focus on the UCL. Because I hope that Xavi makes new, greater achievements with Barcelona

In the last transfer market yesterday, we all knew that Erik Ten Heg had quite a hard time utilizing the club's budget, which turned out to be very small. Different from the budget in the previous season. So Erik Ten Heg also decided not to take the players he really wanted because he knew the club's budget would not be enough. So Ten Heg was forced to take several players with the remaining budget. We even know that after buying Onana, the Man Utd club budget didn't have much left. So if we look at this, we can't blame Ten Heg too much. It can only be said that Ten Heg is not able to maximize the ranks of players in the current squad.

I personally think that firing Ten Heg at this time may not be the best solution. But if you look at the current condition of the squad. So I also understand why many want Ten Heg to be fired. Because teamwork at the Man Utd club is really bad at the moment.

The match that will be very interesting for us to watch in the following week is the Al-Ettifaq vs Al-Taawoun match. But regarding Al-Taawoun's performance, it seems they are not in good condition either. Because in yesterday's match I saw Al-Taawoun lose 3 - 0 when facing Al-Hilal in the King Cup Of Champions. Even though Al-Hilal's victory was predictable, in that match I saw that Al-Taawoun was not able to provide much resistance to Al-Hilal. So I think that in the next match in the SPL, Al-Taawoun will probably have difficulty beating Al-Ettifaq. So Al-Ettifaq as the host might indeed be the favorite in this match. But if you look at the current standings in the SPL. In fact Al-Taawoun has much better ratings than Al-Ettifaq at the moment. Because Al-Taawoun is currently ranked 4th. Meanwhile, Al-Ettifaq is currently still in a slump and is ranked 8th.

So, I'm confused about making predictions for this match. Maybe you have other views regarding the Al-ettifaq vs Al-Taawoun match next week? please share?

Tottenham and Newcastle both suffered defeats in yesterday's match. And both of them have not been at their best in recent weeks. The problems faced by both clubs are also the same. Namely the number of injured players on both teams. But I don't think the defeat in yesterday's match was a coincidence. But it is a sign that they have lost balance in their squad.

Tomorrow's match between Tottenham vs Newcastle is actually also a very exciting match. But Tottenham will host this match. And I think at the moment Tottenham are a little better than Newcastle. So my prediction is that Tottenham will win this match. A score of 2-1 is probably what I expected in this match.

And another match that really makes me curious is the Everton vs Chelsea match. Yesterday Everton managed to beat Newcastle very convincingly. And tomorrow will Chelsea also experience the same thing as Newcastle?. I think this is very interesting. Everton, who always play well when they host, will face Chelsea, who are actually improving a little recently. Sean Dyche and Pochettino will really have a fierce strategy clash this time. And if Chelsea loses then Everton will really make a surprise this season. Because it seems very possible for Everton to be ranked in the top 10 in the end.

Everyone moves for their own interests. Likewise with every country in the world. Economic competition currently continues to occur between western and eastern countries. But for now the western economy still seems to dominate. But even so, currently I personally see that economic growth in eastern countries is actually growing no less quickly. Even in my country, although in the middle west, there is an economic crisis. In fact, here inflation can be overcome more quickly. Some wars are violent and some are subtle, such as through economics and so on. And so also in colonialism. There are countries that colonize by going to war and there are those that colonize by controlling a country's economic sector. You definitely know which countries implement this. But this will continue to happen. So we shouldn't be surprised. My country has good relations with both parties. Be it the US and Russia and even China. And I hope everything will be well forever. Because I don't like conflict and war. I don't care, they had a cold war a long time ago. As long as it doesn't disturb peace in other countries. But a cold war is much better than a direct war.

But I think in this forum there are also big investors (whales/sharks) or whatever. But the majority of users here seem to be retail investors. But OP here is only asking about what level we are currently at as investors. Maybe shark investors can be interpreted as rich investors if adjusted to OP's language. And I don't think I belong there yet. Because I still invest with limited capital and can only pay in installments gradually from the profits from the business I own with my husband. Maybe it could be said to be a research investor if adjusted to OP's language. Because I do a lot of analysis before investing in anything. Especially with crypto, of course you have to be more careful because of the high risk. I hope one day I can become a rich investor (Sharks/Whales).

After I saw Newcastle lose to Everton in the EPL, I started to doubt this club's performance in the next match against Milan. But maybe Newcastle will play well again when they play at home. And in the match against Milan, it looks like Newcastle will still be the favorite as hosts. So this makes me a little confused. Milan is indeed slightly improving at the moment in the domestic league. But it still doesn't necessarily mean it will be good when playing in the UCL. So the final match in the group stage is very difficult for us to predict. I was very curious and wanted to see it immediately. But I would probably still back Newcastle and bet on them.

Last season and at the start of this season, H. Maguire actually didn't perform well. Even Ten Heg didn't glance much at Maguire at first. But Maguire has indeed proven that he is still a good player and then he has proven that he no longer makes many mistakes. And now other players are actually making more mistakes. We still remember of course that in the transfer market yesterday the club tried to sell Maguire. But Maguire remains determined to continue at Man Utd. So many offers from other clubs were rejected by Maguire. And in the end the transfer market closed and Maguire remained at Man Utd. But Maguire's difficulties continue. Because Ten Heg didn't play much Maguire at the start of the season. But after a few weeks passed, Maguire proved that when he played he could be a better defender than the others. So it's not surprising that Maguire returned to the first team and became the starting eleven. And after that Maguire always had a good game rating. So it's natural that he gets an award. I hope he can maintain his current performance and no longer make blunders that endanger the Man Utd goal.

It seems impossible for young players like Mbappe to join clubs in the SPL at this young age. Because we know that Mbappe has had the desire to play for Real Madrid for a long time. And until now he has not achieved his goal. So looking at Mbappe's future, it is more likely that he will go to Real Madrid after PSG. And I can't imagine Mbappe going to the SPL. But regarding M. Salah, I think this player could still possibly go to the SPL. If his contract at Liverpool has expired. And based on many reports, it seems like M. Salah has a contract at Liverpool until 2025. Because last season he extended his contract. So clubs in the SPL will definitely have difficulty if they want to bring him in. Because M. Salah is definitely still comfortable playing at his current club. Unless there is a bigger salary offer that exceeds M. Salah's expectations then maybe that could change the situation and M. Salah is interested in the SPL.

Even though I have heard similar news since 2 months ago about this. But I personally still hope that Messi can come to the SPL. But Messi's condition at Inter Miami is actually quite worrying. He has been injured more frequently since joining Inter Miami. However, the football there is much more aggressive. So it is a natural right.

It would be great if we could finally see these two legendary players play in the SPL. But I have a slightly crazy thought, namely that I expect Messi and CR7 to be on the same team. Al-Nassr with a front line composition of Mane, CR7, Messi and Talisca. It will definitely be perfect.

But of course that's hard to happen. but I would rather expect Al-Nassr to shop for defensive players for the upcoming transfer window. Because the condition of Al-Nassr's back line is really worrying. Even Luis Castro seems impatient to bring in a top European defender. But the plan turns out not to be this season but the transfer market next season. Well that's very regrettable. Because I think Al-Nassr needs it now.

This is why we must have some investment planning. Because investment must be divided into several parts. Such as short, medium and long term investments. Long-term investments should be based on lower risk but have good growth potential in the long term. Medium investment must be based on projects with strong enough fundamentals and have a visible journey structure so that we can see potential increases from the projects being implemented. So we can estimate how long we have to hold it. So, short term investments usually don't involve large amounts of capital. Because short-term investments are usually only made based on following market trends. Get in when a new trend starts and get out when the trend is at its peak. All investment instruments and plans inherently have risks. But the time period we take must also be a benchmark for us in determining which instrument we will enter. adjusted to the risks and potential.

In fact, currently several European clubs seem to be targeting players in the Arab League. Two clubs from the Premier League are also planning to borrow players from the Arab League. One of them is Newcastle which is owned by PIF which also owns several clubs in the SPL. So I wouldn't be surprised if Barcelona joins this trend. And actually right now Yassine Bounou is really surprising everyone in the Arab league. Because this goalkeeper is one of the keys to why Al-hilal rarely concedes the ball this season. I think this player from Morocco is currently attracting the attention of many clubs. Because he is like a big wall that makes it difficult for the ball to penetrate Al-Hilal's goal this season. But yeah I think it's a bit excessive if Xavi wants it. Because of course Al-hilal will not let its flagship goalkeeper go. And Yassine Bounou must also have a big salary there. So there is no reason for him to be interested in moving clubs. Because he had only been at Al-Hilal for a short time.

The situation Man Utd is facing in the UCL is really not easy. Because well even if they win against Bayern then it won't guarantee they can qualify for the Round of 16. Because it takes luck to see the Copenhagen vs Galatasaray match end in a draw. I also feel that there won't be a draw in this match. Galatasaray or Copenhagen is actually difficult for us to predict which team will be superior. But if it turns out that Man United can qualify for the next stage then that will be a miracle in the world of football. Because beating Bayern is also very difficult. But in this match Man Utd had an advantage because they played at Old Trafford. Well, at least mentally the Man Utd players should remain superior.

Damac has been described as a dark horse in the SPL this season. They are a team that is not that strong but can always give strong teams trouble. Even Al-Hilal couldn't beat Damac. That's why we can't underestimate Damac. Al-ittihad must prepare for the worst scenario that could happen to them. Benzema must not waste the opportunity in this match. Because Damac has a pretty solid defense and it will be very difficult for Al-ittihad to create good opportunities. So when Al-ittihad gets an opportunity, the Al-ittihad players must immediately maximize this opportunity. Damac is a little different from other teams. This team is not very sharp in attack but quite strong in defense. In terms of player quality, of course Al-ittihad is superior, but in terms of game strategy, both are equally superior.

But I would bet on Al-ittihad. I think at least Al-ittihad will win even with a small score like 0-1. Let's see.

Yes, I agree that in this match Man City did not play as usual. Unusually, Man City had difficulty making attacks. Guardiola must have been devastated by this result. Because the squad he trained really couldn't do much in that match. The effectiveness they usually have was lost in this match. And yes this really benefits Arsenal and Liverpool. Because now Man City is starting to be further behind by points. Even though it is not a big difference, Arsenal and Liverpool will certainly have more potential to continue to maintain their current position in the standings. And who would have thought that Man City would be ranked 4th and be overtaken by Aston Villa. This is truly beyond everyone's predictions. But because we are only in the middle of the season, anything can still happen. But if Aston Villa, Liverpool and Arsenal continue to get positive results in the next matches then this will be a loss for Man City. And I'm worried that Man City will continue to have bad results. Fortunately, in the UCL, Man City is still superior.

Luis Castro did the right thing in that match. Because second tier players also need time to play. So providing playing time in these matches can help the second tier players continue to train their playing instincts directly on the field. And this also gives the core players time to rest to prepare for more matches in the SPL. It's just that many people are definitely annoyed with the draw in this match. Because of course a lot of people have bet on al-Nassr's victory in that match. I personally missed betting on that match. Because I feel like something like this will happen. Because usually teams that are already in a safe position will try to save the energy of their core players to prepare for other, more important matches.

What we can hope for now is that the operation can run smoothly. And hopefully he can recover from his injury well. Because he is one of the best goalkeepers today. He has long been a goalkeeper for Barcelona. He has been at Barcelona since 2014. And he has achieved many achievements with Barcelona. And actually Marc-André ter Stegen has also been absent several times in the last few weeks. So Barcelona should remain fine for a while. Because there is Iñaki Peña Sotorres who also seems to be very reliable as Barcelona's current goalkeeper.

CR7 was not present in the match and Sadio Mane also did not play in the match. In fact, Talisca only played for 16 minutes in the second half of the match. And this happened because Luis Castro played more second-string players in that match. And Al-Nassr is also in a safe position in the AFC Champions League group stage. And if Al-Nassr loses in this match, Al-Nassr will still qualify for the next stage in the AFC Champions League. So we can understand that this match is not at all a priority for Al-Nassr. Luis Castro only gives opportunities to players who are rarely played in the SPL.

In this match, Al-Nassr still seemed to have weaknesses at the back. But because the opponents they faced were not that strong, everything looked fine. At least the draw is still pretty good. Because Al-Nassr did not play with their maximum strength in that match.

Yes, you said the important point in the match. Indeed, Arsenal have shown that they do not give up even until the last second. But so did Luton. I have to praise Luton in that match. And now I understand that Luton only become less confident when playing at home but they become very confident when playing at home. Maybe if Luton can improve their confidence in every match then Luton should be able to win more matches in the EPL.

There is no doubt about Arsenal's ability. But it was quite surprising to see Arsenal having to fight harder than usual. Arsenal also had a lot of good efforts in that match. And dominated the match very well. It's just that Arsenal really underestimated this match a little. Arsenal's defense is not as good as usual. Arsenal is too focused on attacking. So it is not surprising that Luton is able to respond quickly every time Arsenal scores a goal. I enjoyed the match even though I couldn't stay calm throughout the match because after all I almost gave up on seeing Arsenal win.
