It is the beauty of football that everyone has a chance to win and that the difference between big and small nations is not as big as it used to be.
It is no surprise to me that Switzerland is better than Italy. Weren't they better than France at the European Championship?
I think we are facing a very uncertain fight for the World Cup in additional qualifications, with Italy, Portugal and other nations.

Hvala na još jednoj korisnoj informaciji slackovicu, vjerujem da će i ovo nekome pomoći.
A hvala ti i što držiš ovu temu ''živom'' i aktivnom, i paziš da ne padne u zaborav 
Lijepo od tebe.

I think it’s normal that every tennis player wants to be the best and win the most tournaments.
Federer, Nadal and Djokovic have different personalities and characters, so Djokovic talks openly about it and the other two don't.
As for Serena, if she hadn’t had to break her career due to pregnancy and childbirth, when she was at her peak, I’m sure she would have won a few more GS and been the absolute best.

I would say Ronaldo is both a blessing and a curse to Manchester United.
The main problem is that Ronaldo doesn't play defense and therefore the cohesion of the team is disrupted, because in defense they have fewer players all the time.
The same problem exists in the Portuguese national team.
In modern football, as I mentioned in another post, all players have to play both defense and attack, and one player can't be more important than the whole team.
 

Portugal should have lost the game in Ireland as well, and even then it was obvious that Portugal had serious problems.
I would say that Portugal has the same problem as Manchester United and as Juve had and that problem is called Ronaldo.
In modern football, all players must have equal responsibilities and play both defense and attack.
If you have a player who doesn’t play defense then you play with a player less all the time and that’s a serious handicap.
Ronaldo has become bigger than his team and that is the main problem of Portugal.

In fact, I think that with the introduction of merits, the admins wanted to motivate the forum members to work harder and write better quality posts.
Of course, it is difficult to say how much the admins really succeeded in that.
Somehow it seems to me that in the meantime, merits have become important solely because of the ability to participate in better paid signature campaigns 
In fact, it can be said that this forum is also active due to the large number of participants in signature campaigns, who have the obligation to write on the forum, but this doesn't mean that the quality of posts has increased.

Finally, the match between Croatia and Russia ended and Croatia won 1:0.
Very difficult and bad match, heavy rain and few real chances for Croatia.
In the end, with the help of luck, Croatia beat Russia but didn't play well.
There was no real plan and idea in the attack and the Russian defense easily stopped all Croatian attacks.
The Russians made only one mistake in defense and that decided the winner.
By the way, it must be said that traditionally Croatia has always been good in such crucial matches, which can't be said for Russia.

The first half of the match between Croatia and Russia ended 0:0.
A tough match with very few nice actions and chances.
Russia plays very well in defense and doesn't give much chance to Croatia.
It is obvious that Croatia will have to take a lot more risks and attack with more players in the second half.
A very uncertain match.

Transfer rumours:

New Barcelona manager Xavi wants the club to re-sign Spain midfielder Thiago Alcantara, 30, from Liverpool. The real question is whether Barcelona has the finances to bring in new players?
Manchester United are working on a deal to persuade former Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as manager at Old Trafford. Zidane in Manchester? I think the chances for that are very small and that Zidane is the main favorite to coach the French national team.
Real Madrid are still monitoring Manchester United and France's 28-year-old midfielder Paul Pogba. This transfer saga around Pogba really takes too long. Where Pogba will eventually go ?
Inter Milan and Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen, 29, who hasn't played since suffering a cardiac arrest on the pitch at Euro 2020, wants to return to former club Ajax. I guess not as a player but in some other function?

Today we are expecting several very interesting matches, especially for fans from the Ex Yu area.
Serbia is playing a big and crucial match against Portugal, Macedonia against Iceland and Croatia against Russia.
Portugal was not convincing against Ireland and they should have lost that match, so it seems to me that Serbia is not without chances against Portugal today.
Macedonia has a historic chance to win second place in the group with today's victory and an extension of hope for first participation in the World Cup.
Croatia is looking for a victory against Russia and winning the first places in the group, which leads directly to the World Cup.
Croatia had problems at the beginning of the qualifiers and played unconvincingly, but now it is a completely different team, with a lot of young and talented players, and I think they are the favorites against Russia.

This situation is too well known to me, unfortunately 
Obviously we will have to be a little more patient until bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rise a little more and when we will be able to make a big withdrawal of crypto funds and start enjoying full financial freedom 
Anyway Rikafip, thank you for your effort in preparing these statistics and charts, and I can't wait to see the new data.
Obviously I’m not the only one and you have a wide audience here 
Of course, don’t forget to share this information on our local part of the forum as well.

Unfortunately things like this will always happen because there will always be people interested in making money online, but without enough knowledge and experience to recognize a possible scam.
It is very difficult for beginners to recognize what is the right opportunity and what is a scam, and many people do not understand that both crypto trading and investing in cryptocurrencies are very risky.
The media writes a lot about big profits in the crypto industry and for ordinary people, who are desperate for financial difficulties, crypto seems like a great opportunity for a better financial future.
For more than 20 years I have been making money on the Internet in various ways, and I have already seen all possible ways of fraud, from revshare projects, fake MLM programs, forex trading and much more.
When you come across a financial offer, always ask the following things:
- If your method of earning is so good why do you need other people and their money?
- Why don’t you help your family and friends first and why do you help complete strangers?
- Who are you, your personal data and references of previous work?
If you don’t get the right answers it’s most likely a scam.

In fact, this is a very interesting question, whether we should give more merits to new members and thus help them.
The fact is that new members do not yet have enough knowledge and experience to write better posts and contribute more to the forum community, although of course there are always exceptions.
The question is whether it's then okay to reward their weaker posts with merits and not give merit for some other quality posts from legendary members because we think they don't need merits.
This is not a simple dilemma to solve.
I solve this dilemma by rewarding the knowledge and experience of older members of the forum and with younger members I reward their efforts and the usefulness of some information for the forum community.

Ja sam za, podržavam i trofocoin i bigtoin projekte  
Inače, sad sam baš nešto slučajno našao na stranici Indexa, da sam se stvarno iznenadio.
S obzirom na sve one članke koje su imali do sada o kriptu, čovjek bi pomislio da su protiv kripta, a onda sam danas čitao neke sportske vijesti na njihovom portalu i na kraju ovog članka: https://www.index.hr/sport/clanak/danas-krece-ludnica-za-reprezentacije-iz-regije-pet-kljucnih-utakmica-u-borbi-za-sp/2318074.aspx
naišao sam na ovu, vrlo zanimljivu, obavijest:

PODRŽITE INDEX
Index ne naplaćuje svoj sadržaj jer želimo da pristup neovisnom novinarstvu imaju svi: i oni s novcem, i oni bez novca. Zamislite da informiranje javnosti prepustimo onima koji novinarstvo doživljavaju kao trbuhozborstvo vladajućih, bogatih i moćnih? Ne hvala, takvu Hrvatsku ne želimo. Podržite Index ako možete, i ako mislite da ono što radimo vrijedi. Ako ne, onda ništa.

Želite li podržati Index, možete to učiniti karticom ili kripto valutama.

Koliko vidim, za kripto donacije koriste Paycek.
Moram priznati da mi je ovo baš uljepšalo dan.
Znaju ''s...'' po kriptu ali nemaju ništa protiv kripto donacija.  
Vjerodostojni su, nema što.

Transfer rumours:

It seems to me that they will be very busy in Barcelona, and that a lot of players will come and go, judging by this news, some of which have already been mentioned in this topic:
Barcelona are keen on Chelsea's Germany forward Timo Werner, 25, and could make a move to sign the former RB Leipzig player on loan in January. Werner has started just four Premier League games this season.
Manchester City will resist any approach from Barcelona to sign Raheem Sterling, 26, in January. Barca have been linked with a move for the England forward, who has started just three Premier League games this season.
Also, it seems that Manchester City have not given up on Kane and are ready to try again. Will it work this time?
City are also prepared to test Tottenham's resolve in January by reviving their interest in England striker Harry Kane having failed to lure the 28-year-old to Etihad Stadium in the summer.
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers leads a four-man shortlist to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Manchester United. Does anyone else believe Solskjaer will survive as a coach until the end of this season?
Former Rangers and Italy midfielder Gennaro Gattuso, 43, has unfinished business at Ibrox amid links with replacing Steven Gerrard as manager. Is Gattuso really coming back to Scotland?

The final highlight of the season, the ATP final, is coming soon.
It's interesting what Djokovic has to say, who wants to win a new, sixth title in this tournament, which will start soon in Turin.

''I needed that break to rejuvenate and get ready for a strong finish to the season," said the world number one.
I haven't played so much as previous years in terms of the amount of tournaments, but I did have a lot of exhausting events that I played, particularly in the Grand Slams," said Djokovic. When I say exhausting, I don't just mean physically but mentally and emotionally.
It was unlike any other year that I've had so far because of the pressure of achievement and the potential of history making.
It took a lot out of me."

It's interesting how much Djokovic is focused on achieving tennis records and proving that he is the greatest tennis player of all time.
I guess that’s one of the reasons why a lot of tennis players and fans don’t like him. What do you think?
Who will be his main competitors in this tournament?

Does that just seem to me but I think Sweden had much better results when they played without Ibrahimovic in the past? 
It is never good when one player becomes more important than the whole team, and when the team loses internal cohesion and unity.
You don't believe it? Just look at the ''Ronaldo effect'' in Juventus and Manchester United.
I think it is better to have a team that plays as one than a team where 1 player is more important than all the others and everything is subordinated to that player.

I think it is a mistake to make a selection of members on the forum, in a way that the higher forum ranks don't need merits and the lower forum ranks need merits.
Members with higher forum rank needs merits for entering better paid signature campaigns for example.
I suggest that you don't pay attention to the forum rank members and that you give merits only by the criteria of the quality of the post, the usefulness of some information ...
I have been doing something similar for several years in this local topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4265795.0

Hvala na informaciji.
Ova kampanja ima potpuno iste uvjete kao moja trenutna, isto je dugotrajna i sigurna, a  još i plaća 10 $ više.
Da sam bez kampanje odmah bih se javio ali ovako, razlika u isplati nije velika a mislim da Hhampuz baš ne voli ovakva ''prebacivanja'' između njegovih kampanja.  
Pričekat ću neku drugu priliku, kada bude veća razlika u zaradi.
Sretno onima koji se prijave.

Opet se vraćamo na staru priču da se ljudi zbog kompliciranih poreznih pravila neće ni javljati u poreznu za manje iznose, već će si novce podizati anonimno u kripto mjenjačnicama ili btc bankomatima.
Kada se bude radilo o većim iznosima, ljudi će onda već imati financijsku slobodu i mogućnost da se presele u neku drugu državu sa povoljnijim zakonima o kriptu (čini se da je Slovenija na dobrom putu https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5358010.0) ili jednostavno otvoriti neki offshore bankovni račun, zakladu, firmu i sl. i legalno sve riješiti uz izbjegavanje naših poreznika.
Jedini koji gubi ovdje je hrvatska država jer će s vremenom biti sve više ljudi koji se bave kriptom i zarađuju ali država će dobiti puno manje od kripto poreza nego što bi mogli uz pametnije porezne zakone i propise.
