To be honest, I am not very knowledgeable about this coach, so I can not express any opinion. Your reasoning seems logical. But maybe he is well suited to the situation that has now developed in the club - Mbappe will steer, and the coach will do the routine work. In any case, I do not see great prospects for PSG - Real Madrid once collected galacticos but this did not lead to any outstanding results.

The problem is stacking a team with great players generally does not work very well,
because oftentimes all of the players have different mindsets and that does not work very well in team composition.
I don't think PSG is going to have good results even though they have good players on the team and they are thinking about changing the coach right now.
The new coach is not going to be good because he will also not be able to impose authority on the players.



Recently i heard a rumour about Neymar future that his agent offering him to another club outside France and Juventus is one of those teams and the reason behind it because PSG management didn't satisfied with his performance during play for PSG but i don't think there will be new teams who are willing to buy him especially he had expensive price tag because PSG want him to sold not less than 76 millions poundsterling and his current salary also makes other clubs think twice to get him because he had high salary more than 600.000 pounds weekly

PSG offer Neymar to Barcelona, Paul Pogba to sign for Juventus, and Tottenham give up on Gabriel Jesus

Now, this is news to me. A lot of people are already saying that if this deal does end up happening, a Washed-up player is going to go to a Washed-up club.
But I honestly doubt that this deal is going to happen.

England tries to keep New Zealand under pressure from the start. Broad, in particular, took two wickets easily which limited the opponent's run. A total of 5 wickets have fallen so far but New Zealand have got an attempt to turn around. Daryl Mitchell, Tom Blundell are doing great. A competitive match is expected.
If England's bowlers can't pick up Mitchel and Blundell's two wickets early in the second day, then New Zealand will be able to collect 350 or 400 runs. Apart from these two batsmen, there is no other experienced batsman in the New Zealand squad now. If England can't take all the wickets in the first session then maybe we will see New Zealand dominate in today's match too.
Only these two have consistently performed throughout the test series. If they both get out in the first session then it would be difficult for the NZ to even score 300 runs. Again a disappointing performance by the NZ batters. One of the biggest example of bad luck was Nicholls getting out yesterday.

New Zealand was pushed at the beginning of the second day. They lost Tom Blundell's wicket. Blundell returned to the dressing room after collecting 55 runs. Daryl Mitchel is still at the crease with 82 runs. As long as he stays at the crease, New Zealand's big collection hopes will survive. New Zealand scored 256 runs. Probably their innings could end in 320.

^^ I agree we're not ready but if for some weird reason it get hits in the subcontinent specially India then BCCI is going to exploit it without any doubt.

It happened with the T-20 so i don't think BCCI is going to ignore another milking cow, if it's realistic business model.

I really don't have any problem with a certain cricket board exploiting something that is legal, but the problem that I have is if this gets a good amount of popularity I think cricket is going to lose the actual skill that is needed to play. Everyone is just going to go and try to smash the ball out of the field and I think bowlers are going to lose their relevance.


As per the terms and conditions of the IPL, the BCCI can't come up with another league that can become the competitor. Unless the BCCI allows the existing franchises to take part in the new T10 league (without any franchise fee), I don't believe that the other side will agree to the proposal. But in this case, the BCCI doesn't gain much. Anyway, I am not comfortable with some of the rules, such as the "mystery free hit". It can be easily manipulated based on voting and I am afraid that it is going to be another disaster like the much hyped "super sub".

Actually, cricket was not ready for this. And this is going to be confusing as well as some of the rules can also be quite manipulative. I really don't think that this should be a big hit, I hope that it does not get very popular for the sake of cricket.

I don't see the right decision to make Christophe Galtier as Pochettino's replacement. Indeed Galtier was quite successful as coach of Nice,
which Nice managed to end the season in fifth place in Ligue 1. Which Nice earned 66 points, and made Nice entitled to appear in the UEFA
Conference League. Whereas the previous season Nice was only in 9th position, Galtier managed to make Nice progress rapidly. This may be
seen by the PSG management, after Zidane refused to become PSG coach. But don't forget that Galtier has no experience coaching teams with
many star players like PSG, so I'm not sure Galtier can control PSG players. Whereas what PSG needs is a coach who can control PSG's star players,
in order to create solid cooperation between players. I think instead of being Galtier as PSG coach, it's better to give Pochettino another chance,
because I don't see Galtier better than Pochettino. I like you predicting Galtier will fail to make PSG successful next season,  because Nice is very
different from PSG.

I also agree, that there is no reason why Pochettino needs to be replaced if the new coach that they are going to get is Christophe Galtier!! I don't think he is going to do much better compared to Pochettino. But, I also don't think that they should give Pochettino another chance.



Christophe Galtier brings Nice to be in the top 5 and that is enough to prove he is the best manager to replace Pochetino. But, we still don't know, Zidane still has a chance after the sports director, Leonardo leaves. And we know Campos is a person who replaces Leonardo who can bring a suitable coach, Galtier is a big candidate because have worked together in Lille.

It is confirmed, that the results are going to be much different if they get Christophe Galtier. They have to get someone who is a really top tier coach. I don't think they should bring someone else if they are not able to get Zidane.

bayern münchen has now with these 3 great transfers again set a sign in the bundesliga, if nothing goes wrong in the season (major injuries or big trouble in the team) they will again be german champions but the focus is of course the champions league, in which they want to shine again and then also want to win again

~snip
I think with these three people it will be a nightmare for all clubs that meet Bayern in the next few matches, these three players are football athletes who cannot be underestimated because they have skills that are very difficult to beat. These three people should be kept in mind, especially Sadio Mane.

Every year in the Bundesliga we see the dominance of Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich wins the title every year at the end of the season. Hopefully next season we will see the same thing. And I would say Bayern Munich's team is stronger and more stable next season than last season. They are probably trying to sort out to win the Champions League title again.

CPL and Windies cricket board are coming up new form of T-10 cricket. Some interesting rules out there like 6 wickets (all out), Mystery free hit (this one sounds fun) and most important one penalty for slow over rate.
Quote
For this, the league has come up with brand new rules under which the matches will be played. Here are some.
-Each batting team has six wickets – at the fall of the sixth they are all out
-Each batting team has two PowerPlay overs. They can unlock a third PowerPlay by hitting two sixes in the first 12 balls. This extra PowerPlay over can be taken at any time between overs 3-9.
-There will be 30 balls bowled from one end before the action switches to the other end for the final 30 balls.
-The 30 balls will be delivered as 5 separate overs, with no bowler being able to bowl more than 2 overs for the innings.
-Teams have 45 minutes to bowl their overs. If they are too slow a member of their team is removed from the field for the final six balls.
-Fans will vote for the timing of a “Mystery Free Hit” where a batter can’t be dismissed by the bowler.
-The first edition of THE 6IXTY will take place from 24 to 28 August in St Kitts & Nevis at one of world cricket’s fastest scoring grounds – Warner Park. Future expansion plans of the 6IXTY include the potential of multiple events at different locations around the Caribbean and beyond.

Honestly, I did not want this to happen so early and I think first of all it is going to be confusing to a lot of people. Secondly, I don't think the cricket world is ready for the t10 format right now.
I think it would have been better if this was introduced to the cricketing world a lot later. Now with the introduction of the t10 format cricket is going to lose its skill.
Now I think it is going to be baseball instead of playing genuine cricket shots.

There is no talking yet between Zidane and Nasser, If so it's like mission impossible for both to create an agreement to continue the contract. Zidane is still waiting for Didier Deschamp's contract to finish until December 2022 for the National team where his dream is to be the coach. And, I hear a news PSG has found who credible person to replace the position, a lucky guy is Christophe Galtier, a Nice coach which brings that club to rank 5.
Galtier is a fallback but it looks like he will be PSG manager as Zidane keeps turning down PSG. It will be funny if France wins the World Cup, then most likely (at least in my opinion it would be logical) Deschamps will extend his contract and Zidane will not be able to lead the French national team.

Is Christophe Galtier suitable for the PSG team? He is the coach of the France team. But in the Euro, we have seen the poor performance of France. There is no chance to say that the French team is weak. Their team has lots of talented and star players. Yet their performance was poor. There is a lack of coordination among the players. PSG's problem is the same. Despite having a lot of talented players on the team, they are not able to play well as a team. If Christophe Galtier cannot succeed with the French team, then he will also fail with the PSG team.

Can Axel Witsel play well with Atletico Madrid? I have seen the performance of Axel Witsel. I don't think he played very well at Dortmund. He has scored 2 goals in 29 matches and has not been able to provide any assist. However, the gameplay of Serie A and La Liga is completely different. Maybe he can do a little better in La Liga. Simeon may have considered Axel Witsel suitable for his squad. Most likely we will see Axel Witsel in Atletico Madrid jersey next season/
I think it's a good signing, at zero cost and it doesn't seem so slow to me. Great ball control and finishing ability. He is the undisputed starter with Belgium, and we have seen him play in World Cups, European Cups, etc. He is well known, I think he is a good signing with experience, it's true that he's 33 years old but if his injuries respect him I think he can play for two years at a good level.
I don't think Axel Witsel's goals are a problem, because his position is as a defensive midfielder, which of course is not his main mission. Also, every coach will of course always consider before recruiting players and not at random, if Diego Simeone has chosen and decided to sign Axel Witsel then of course Axel Witsel has criteria for Simeone's plans next season. But indeed, signing a midfielder with an old age I think is not right because his position as a midfielder certainly requires strong power because La Liga is not a weak league either.

I partially agree with you. Axel Witsel's ability certainly cannot be considered with his number of goals. However, since he is a midfielder, it is important to consider how many he has assisted. He will lag behind even considering this aspect. But maybe Simeone has different plans with Axel Witsel. If Simeone can use Witsel properly then maybe we can see better performance from Witsel. Besides, I don't think Witsel is a very talented player.

Once again, Australia had a poor start to their chase. Aaron Finch got out for a duck, with Karunaratne taking the wicket. Mitchell Marsh and David Warner are at the crease and they are dealing with the Sri Lankan bowling very carefully. And when the Sri Lankans were batting, the Australian bowlers wasted a good chance to restrict them to a total of less than 200. When Pathum Nissanka got out, Lankans were struggling at 34/3. From there, Charith Asalanka and Dhananjaya de Silva took them to a very decent total of 258.

Australia is going to lose the fourth match as usual. It is very embarrassing for Australia to lose a series against such an inexperienced team. Australia needs 27 runs from 14 balls to win. But Australia lost 8 wickets. Had an experienced batsman at the crease, Australia might have won. Pat Cummins is still at the crease, scoring 27 off 37 balls. The performance of Sri Lankan bowlers is excellent. Sri Lanka may win today too.

Angel Di maria is one good left winger PSG has at the present moment although he will be leaving as a free player as the Argentine don't seems to extend contract with his present team. Juventus is the only team that has strong possible transfer link with Angel and the old lady coach, Massimiliano Allegri is doing everything within his capacity to bring him to Italy. If Di Maria is coming to Juventus, he's only going to sign a year deal with the team and looks to like he might be offer option to further season with the old lady. It sounds like a good idea and I'm happy that Juventus are finally restrategizing and getting potential players they need at the moment.
I think Juventus is working on the right path, unlike PSG. PSG is trying to get the best 11 players to ever exist in the football world and try to do anything that they have to achieve that. But by doing so, they are just making the team weaker in terms of strategy and chemistry. PSG should stop thinking about stacking the team with the best players in the world and actually get the players who will be able to play the part of the playmaker in the team. The players will have to be a lot more selfless and actually look at their teammates when they are in the final third.

You are right. PSG's management wants to bring together star players in their team. They are spending a lot of money and taking on talented players. But they are not taking proper steps to strengthen the understanding between the players of the team. And rumors have been circulating that the team's coaches also have to sort out tactics according to Mbappe's instructions. If this rumor is true then the stable performance of PSG will never be possible. And if PSG wants to win the champions league title, then the coach must be allowed to work independently.

Diego Simeon want Axel Witsel in his squad next season. The Belgian Midfielder is trying really hard to be in a better form next season, after his refusal to extend his contract with Borussia Dortmund. He's one of the key player both in his club and country, it will good news if Witsel moves to Atlético. However, according to report, Atlético are probably set to complete the deal on the player. Although, Marseille also have interest in Axel Witsel. Which means Diego Simeon should hurry before other teams open contract talks with Witsel.

It would be expensive if he went to another league with same price tag but it's pretty normal for English clubs. This is another reason why Premier League is the best league in the world. Teams don't hesitate to spend big money on transfers and that way we can watch majority of the great players in the same league. If it turns out good then West Ham will get a good defender but if he fails they can sell him for lower prices. Players know this and try to bring their A game in every match and off the field.
Rennes had a great season and they made a great deal by selling Aguerd for 31 million Euro net profit. They bought him from Dijon just for 4 million Euro two years ago.

Can't disagree with that. A price tag like that is obviously a lot expensive in any other League but in English Premier League this is actually quite normal. At least they did not pay something that is absolutely unreasonable. I also think that for any English Premier League club this price is understandable but this obviously becomes an expensive price tag as soon as we think about this transfer being made out of the English Premier League. I really hope that he proves to be a good transfer for West Ham United. And I really wish that this does not become another 'transfer gone failed' case.

A good review about Australian cricket and BBL but here we have one more issue this time Australians have no luxury of time like we have in the Sub-Continent so they have to settle this between their International tours so this is also a big issue for them and case they have no local Australian players secondly they are never been good in paying their salaries disputes has a long history so just this is another case mostly local players don't like to play this BBL.

I am watching Australian cricket for a long time and now they have never been good to pay and their many players leave just because of this and try to settle in England for better finances in cricket even right now mostly love to play IPL as they have very handsome income from this franchise.

But now good things happening many countries are offering franchise cricket which is helping these players for having good salaries even it is not possible for the player they can join them as bowling, batting and fielding coaches which is also have a good salary.

Even though some good things are happening for the cricket players around the world I think Australia should start validating their own players a little more. I don't know why they will not give players a good enough salary. The players are getting a lot of money from IPL and also other franchise cricket and that's why I think they are not saying anything. If they did not have that luxury I think there could have been some problems regarding this situation.

The league definitely can't be determined by El Clasicos for Barcelona and Real Madrid. The general performance and consistency are everything for this league. Real Madrid were incredible about consistency last season and this helped them reach a very comfortable championship. I'm aware of another thing too that Barcelona were very consistent after a point but it was too late for them to fight for the championship. Next season we can really watch a stronger Barcelona but I also expect Real Madrid to be the closest team to make it.
Barcelona will definitely perform well in next season, if their managements will be able to achieve those talented midfielders and defenders in this season. Barcelona performance was very poor in this season that was causing their fans unhappy about their results, which their manager promised to give the team the best performance in next season. I don't think Real Madrid will still perform well in next season, because many teams has achieved talented new players that will help them to perform better in next season.

Xavi is well aware of Barcelona's weaknesses. And so he is deliberately trying to strengthen his team. The main weakness of Barcelona last season was their defense. Barcelona's forwards are strong, but midfield and defense are weak. Umtiti and Pique are not performing as well as expected. And so I think Xavi's decision to have Christensen on the team is a good decision. Strengthening midfield and defense is more important now than taking Lewandowski to the team.
2235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: June 20, 2022, 04:54:10 PM
I think Barcelona have made a very good change, they have got the best Serie A midfielder, namely Kessie who this season was able to bring Milan to the championship. And Barcelona are looking for a strong defender to replace Gerard Pique.
I think Barcelona will be able to compete with Real Madrid next season. I am optimistic that Barcelona will be able to win the La Liga title next season
Not only kessie but actually barcelona have also got Christensen from chelsea, and they are still eyeing lewandowski to spearhead next season, the arrival of kessie will certainly make their midfield solid and I think Christensen who does have a position as a defender is indeed projected to replace pique , but unfortunately these two players still can't be registered by barcelona to la Liga because of financial fair problems at the moment, I think Xavi's influence this season is extraordinary and if they can solve their financial problems now maybe we will see Barcelona again become a rival to madrid for get tittle .

The coach of Barcelona has done really well but the problem is the financial situation of Barcelona is not going to be better any time soon. Xavi will have to work with what he has right now. And he will also have to bring the results otherwise the players are already taking a 50% cut in the pay and they are not going to hang around for too long if the team is not bringing results. There are some hard choices to make for Barcelona and for Xavi in the upcoming few years. If they can somehow hang on during these few years they will be able to do better in the future.

west ham united have completed the signing of morocco international Nayef Aguerd on a five-year deal.
according to english media reports, a transfer fee of the equivalent of €35 million is due for the stade rennes central defender.


His performance with rennes so far has been quite good and he is able to make the rennes defense very solid, in my opinion with his contribution to rennes so far of course he is worth buying even though the price is quite expensive, moyes seems to be now starting to try to rebuild the westham squad after going through a pretty impressive season this season, in my opinion Nayef Aguerd will not be too difficult to adapt in westham, because according to the news he masters 4 languages ​​including English and obviously this will help him in understanding the strategies implemented by Moyes later

I actually think that the price was a little bit expensive. I know he is a great player and he will be able to give really good service to West Ham United. But, I think they could have paid a little less for this player. I really don't know why the teams in English Premier League tend to pay more money. If he actually brings really good results I think it will be worth spending, but if that does not happen a lot of questions will be asked.

From year to year Bayern Munich is indeed in the lead in the list of winners of the Champions League, but because Bayern Munich does lack players who can defend well in defense, they often concede goals. Bayern Munich has indeed been less consistent in their game this season, even though their opponents are domestic teams, but it is difficult for them to get maximum points consistently.
Actually in this case their back line in terms of players is very good but the problem is sometimes in a match they are always focused on attack and are not in a state of readiness when they face counter attacks because some players do not return to their positions on time.
It's also the case that when they lost against Villarreal this season they were focused on attacking but when they came on the counter they were overwhelmed which made this a drawback for them.
Yes, Bayern Munich is always included in the list of favorite teams to win the Champions League. In fact they always score a lot of goals in several matches, but that can't make up for their shortcomings that lie in defense as discussed here. Their defense only works in the domestic league but not for the bigger competitions.
Bayern Munich should learn from Real Madrid. Real Madrid identifies the opponent's weak points and adjusts the match strategy accordingly. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, always plays offensively. But it is not possible to win all the matches by playing only attacking. This is why we do not see the expected performance from Bayern Munich, despite being the favorite team in the Champions League every year.
Apart that, I guess also that Real madrid were absolutely too lucky in this Champions League, and this isn't the best example to do. Maybe we can say that Bayern Munich should be more decisive when he play in offensive
mode, instead to make 15 kicks and doin only 1 goal, this is absolutely ridicolous. Defense mode of Bayern is good, they didn't take so much goals during this years, but they needs absolutely to improve the offensive phase.

Real Madrid must have been lucky. At the same time they were very tactful. Their match strategy was excellent in every match. And in almost every match we see a change in their match strategy. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, has only made an attack. But strong attacks have been rare. When a team plays with a completely defensive strategy, Bayern Munich has a lot of problems winning against them. In order to perform well next season, they must change their strategy

Recently heard that CA are thinking of introducing draft system for foreign players in BBL, some foreign players might find this set up more interesting.  

IMO the main negative point for BBL is that their schedule is always clash with their own national team's fixtures. I find it weird that on one hand they play high profile series around nov-dec-jan (boxing day test etc) and also organise BBL.

The Australian cricket calendar was like that even before the introduction of the BBL. The test matches being played during Christmas-New Year vacations are a major revenue earner for Cricket Australia. However, this is problematic for those players, who participate in more than one format. And in terms of revenue, it works well for CA, because the test matches are played during the daytime and the BBL matches are mostly played during the evening. They are trying to maximize the revenue during peak season. Also, one argument is that there is not much overlap between the viewership for test and T20.

But, in search of revenue, the board itself is putting a lot of pressure on the players of Australia. Revenue is obviously going to be better because of this but really it is going to be bad for cricket.

You cannot expect a test player to play test cricket in the daytime and play t20 at night time on the same day. I am not saying that it is impossible but that is obviously not the optimal way to play for a player. They also have to really increase the salary of players in the BBL. Otherwise, it is going to lose a lot of popularity because great players are not going to be attracted. They should always first think about their players rather than the revenue.

Benzema is rumored to extending his contract with Real Madrid.
Juventus is maybe going for Koulibaly from Naples.
Inter is close to getting Lukaku back from Chelsea on Loan.
Barca will probably not go for Lewa.
Di Maria will give a final decision to Juve before Monday.
The captain will remain in Real Madrid until the end then he might change league to retire.
For Lukaku, a loan seems to be logical after only 1 season..
For Lewandowski, I hear everyday a rumour about him. Yes he will join and Bayern will allow him after Sadio Mane joining them, then tomorrow you hear, no he will not join, Barca can't pay...etc

Karim Benzema is going to stay in Real Madrid because he is in Red Hot form in Real Madrid, he will surely want this to continue.
Lukaku really needs to move or at least move on a loan. Otherwise, I don't think he is going to get back his form or even get enough playing time in his current team.

I really do not think that Bayern Munich is going to let go of Robert Lewandowski because they would have accepted the offer already given by Barcelona so far. I think that Bayern Munich is making a plan to play him alongside Sadio Mane. Because that is the only reason I think they are not letting him go.
