This season the Barcelona squad is more mature, a number of new players brought in this season are quite experienced players. Even though the start of the league was not very smooth, the team's performance showed mental readiness in the match so that the Blaugrana troops did not give up easily.

Girona has looked very impressive so far and surprised many people, but I'm not so sure they will always be able to appear consistent. Real Madrid and Barcelona are two big powers in La Liga, it is difficult for Girona to surpass these two classic teams.

Barcelona is now much better than before, especially after two Joaos from Portugal have joined Camp Nou. now, they are better prepared to face various matches in all competitions. Apart from that, Barcelona now has second tier players who are quite better than before. Unfortunately, in the Mallorca match, Barcelona had to draw with a score of 2-2.
If I were Xavi, maybe I would experiment playing Joao Felix as a center forward and Ferran Torres on the wing. because as we often see, Ferran Torres always has difficulty playing his role as a center forward. But apart from all that, it is normal that all big teams will not always win every match. well, if Pedri recovers from his injury. Xavi can have the option of rotating his players according to the needs of the team and who the opponent is. Tomorrow Barcelona will host Sevilla at Camp Nou, on paper Barcelona is far the favorite over Sevilla.

Talking about Girona, this team has performed quite impressively and is in the top spot at the top of the standings. two points ahead of Barcelona, ​​one point difference with Real Madrid. In this week's match, Girona's consistency will be tested by hosting Real Madrid. So, we will find out whether Girona is able to face El Real in the meeting between these two teams. This is interesting, because the result of the match will determine the position of these two teams.

At least it has been an entertaining win for the fans who have pinned a lot of hope on Pochettino so far. Brighton is a good team to provide the best resistance against Chelsea, but Chelsea managed to overcome the challenge even though they could only score 1 goal.

I know this is an important win for Pochettino's squad, but they cannot be satisfied with just one win in 4 matches in two different competitions. Chelsea fans and management are hoping for more positive results rather than just 1 in 4 matches, so Pochettino clearly has work to think about ahead of the match against Fulham early next week.

You could say, the victory was an entertaining victory for the Blues fans, as you said. However, it is not the EFL Cup that is their target, Chelsea must be able to finish in the top four of the Premier League competition. thus, they can take part in the Champions League next season. However, the victory in the EFL Cup over Brighton could be a trigger to raise the motivation and mentality of the entire team to play their matches in the Premier League.

This week, they will play a match against Fulham. Pochettino must further improve the quality of his players' play, so that they are able to provide victory after victory to increase their ranking in the standings.
Now Cheslea is in 14th position, Pochettino has a tough task to bring Chelsea up the rankings. Luckily, the competition still has a lot of games left. Pochettino must optimize his squad, while waiting for the injured players to fully recover.

Is what you are asking about all types of gambling games? If yes, there is actually a lot to share based on experience. the first, is Baccarat. This game is more tense than any game IMO. I even spent the contents of the savings I collected in one year. This type of game is very simple and you don't need to wait long to win. just like blackjack, roulette and several other games. however, of all the ones I like that are luck based are Bacarrat. It cannot be denied that I have won large amounts in just a short time. As usual, the Martingale technique has always been very popular. at the point I lost what I had built for a year, finally completely quit gambling within a few years.

Another experience, I like playing slots. If there is a game that I like more, I will play it until I get bored, whether I win or lose. However, at certain points, I have to save more financially because of my responsibility for my family's needs.
Now, I just play as casually as I can. I like football betting more because apart from other types of gambling, I have also liked football for a long time, this bet gives me more chances of winning than losing. at least, it can minimize losses.

~~

Instead of outrightly banning gambling, how about if the concerned countries officially include gambling education in their academic syllabus, just like sex education is taught in schools. Gambling education will teach the young ones the dangers of gambling and promote moderation in gambling. Will this not be a better way to handle the gambling cases?

This is interesting, but what is the urgency of gambling education for society or in schools? All students are initially taught ethics and norms apart from reading and so on, this education is enough for their basics. BTW, I'm talking about education in my country. Regarding gambling, it is the same as other types of fun. Even though it is prohibited by the country, some people, groups, communities will try to get around it, including against the law, even as you said.

Believe me, we live in a world that is regulated by the laws and regulations that apply in each of our countries. However, the fact is that not everyone will comply. especially, those related to something pleasant. something that is enjoyable for someone, it is difficult to stop immediately. for example, children are now very familiar with the types of games on their gadgets. Almost all urban children must have played a game of any kind.

Well, now we're talking about gambling. Gambling is a type of instant entertainment that contains risks. gambling, offering simple, easy and fun games. now, gambling has become legal in several countries even though there are certain regulations that differentiate it. and IMO, gambling education is more effective through a family and persuasive approach.

After all, even though PSG is inconsistent to get a win in every match, but in the end PSG will still have a chance to win the Ligue 1 title. Because in my judgment right now, it seems that no team can take advantage of PSG bad situation at this moment, because they or teams other in Ligue 1 than PSG also do not have the quality to be consistent with three points in each match. Therefore, although PSG is still inconsistent to win, but in the end PSG will always have a chance to return to the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

It's not that PSG were in a bad situation at the start of their match, but the new players needed to adapt well to their teammates, the system implemented by the coach, and also what Enrique wanted. some of the newcomers they brought in in this summer's transfer window, are not ready and established players. Goncalo Ramos, needs time to reach his level. Likewise with Kolo Muani, Kang-in Lee, Urgate, they really need adaptation and a strong bond to achieve what Enrique wants. but now they are starting to find their rhythm, even though it is not really ideal.

Likewise with PSG's competitors in Ligue 1, even top teams like Manaco, Marseille, Lillie, they were inconsistent at the start of this season, let alone Lyon and Lens.
This week, PSG will visit Clermont headquarters. the home team, currently sits at the bottom of the standings.  3 points, is something they must get. Thus, PSG will return to the top of the Ligue 1 standings. However, with the condition that the Nice vs Brestois match ends in a draw. despite all that, gradually PSG will top the Lique 1 standings and this is just a matter of time.
2266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 28, 2023, 04:45:05 PM
Both teams are currently in pretty good form but Leipzig is not an opponent that can be underestimated, especially since they will be playing at home, of course this will be quite a fierce match and in fact, in my opinion, no one is a favorite because both have the same possibility of winning. win this match.
So there is nothing certain here, Bayern will have difficulties and I hope Bayern can be held back by Leipzig so that competition in the Bundesliga becomes fiercer in the fight for the title.

We all know that Bayern Munich is still the favorite team in this match, especially now that they have Kane as their center forward. Even though this match was held at the Red Bull Arena, Bayern is still favored by the bookies. we can check the odds available by the bookie, Bayern with odds @1.92 and RB Leizpig with odds @3.50. Even though Leipzig is playing at their own headquarters, it is not an easy feat to overthrow the Bayern Munich squad. Apart from that, it's not only Leipzig that is in a positive trend in its last 4 matches. Bayern is the same, they are unbeaten in 5 matches this season.
IMO, the situation is now different when Bayern were beaten by Leipzig in the German Super Cup, Thomas Tuchel's squad is now much more solid than when these two teams met in the Super Cup. The only thing that worries Bayern fans is the Bayern Munich goalkeeper, he is less skilled in guarding his goal. so, does Leipzig have the potential to score, yep, they have a chance to do so. however, vice versa. Whether Bayern can break through Leipzig's goal, yep, they are much more favourites.
2267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you seen gambling advertisements on TV? Opinion. on: September 27, 2023, 09:10:25 PM
While watching TV with my kid, I've watched various advertisements of gambling nature (let's say for example, Rummy123, RummyCircle, A23 Rummy, etc.)
These are all specifically Indian ads, but I'm sure you may have seen various gambling advertisements, some banners at boundaries when cricket is ongoing, even in any other sport. How would a kid ignore those things, they might just come and ask you about what is it. Till when can we lie to them? Don't you think that the frequency of such ads must be less in order to let the kids not get trapped into gambling and don't do it at such a small age?

in my country, gambling is no longer allowed.  So, we never see gambling advertisements on TV. However, on the internet, there are lots of gambling advertisements, even several influencers and artists in my country are also part of gambling advertisement promotions on social media. be it on a YouTube channel or IG network.  but whatever it is, whether on TV or the Internet, it's all the same. after all, advertising can be everywhere. Moreover, now we are more used to the internet than TV.

Well, the point is, if you are a parent, father or mother. Your job is not to lie to them, just explain the necessary parts according to their understanding at their age. I have a son, he is very active with his smartphone. Even though I have limited the access allowed, it is not impossible that they don't know about gaming. The games vary, even as we discuss gambling games. advertising, and all that. gradually, they will figure it out as they grow.
And as I said at the beginning, if you can't stop the circulation of advertisements on TV, banners, and the like. There's not much you can do, because they also pay for advertising services plus tax. So, we can only apply the best education to them. with a good approach, and provide understanding according to the child's age.
2268  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 27, 2023, 08:46:03 PM

UEFA Champions League is here, I can predict if Napoli can push far this season because they seems to be strugling in Seria A games. A coach is incharge, this is his first season incharge, there's alot he would learned, we just have to keep things brief because Rudi Garcia have plans for the club, it can't happen immediately but as time passes, we would witnessed an entire new club. The former coach, Luciano Spalleti gave them the scudetto last season, he's presence matters alot, quitting pulled frustration on the team, they declined in performance a little bit. However they will keep pushing for good results under the new boss.

I think you can't force and demand Rudi Garcia to have the same achievements as Luciano Spalletti because of course they are different. Moreover, I'm surprised, it seems like everyone is blaming Rudia Garcia even though yes, in reality Rudi Garcia has just started but there has been a lot of pressure and demands on Rudi Garcia. Obviously, this situation will certainly not be good for a process because after all, there is still a long way to go and of course, as time goes by, there will of course be changes later. After all, last season Napoli was eliminated in the quarter finals and lost by Milan. So yes, Rudi Garcia should be given good time to build the team, not just blame him for the decline in the team's performance, because of course that will have a bad impact.

Actually, I don't like to compare coaches or players. but in this case, if I had to say which coach is better. based on the achievements of these two coaches, Luciano Spalletti seems to have a more proven track record.
however, that doesn't mean Rudi Garcia is far below Spalletti's level. unfortunately, currently Garcia is still having difficulty bringing his team to the same performance they performed last season as under the previous coach. I think it's natural, maybe he needs chemistry with his squad. After all, these two coaches have different mainstay systems. Spalletti with his 4-3-3, while Garcia with his 4-2-3-1. although in Napoli's case, Rudi Garcia prefers to use a 4-3-3 system. Plus, last season Napoli didn't have any tough competitors. The competing teams are currently in a poor performance phase in the 2022-2023 season. This season the top teams in Serie A are starting to return to their best performance.

Well, let's see how far Rudi Garcia can take Napoli, even though there has been a decline in performance this season. In this competition, Napoli started their match by overthrowing Braga. The next match will be a serious challenge for Rudi Garcia who will host Real Madrid.

Once again Real Madrid is taking advantage on Barcelona's failure yesterday after the draw against Mallorca 2-2. Today, the white team scored first and didn't receive any goals because they understand how important this opportunity is and every point matters this season if they aim to reclaim the trophy of LaLiga and don’t waste it like they did last year.

Surprisingly, this time Girona leads the standings with six consecutive wins and only one draw match (first match against Real Sociedad) . I believe many of us may not have noticed their impressive results so it's not just a matter of chance I would guess they seem to perform well in the championship.
I haven't had the chance to watch any of their matches yet, but could you guys share some insights about this team? Or they will disappear from top standing in the next matches?

Likewise, I didn't even watch the Girona match. However, referring to their statistics, of the 7 matches they have played, they have won 6 matches and one draw. In fact, they are quite prolific in terms of scoring goals, they have scored 18 goals in their 7 matches. However, if I refer to the teams that were their opponents, all of them were ordinary teams and perhaps only Real Sociedad were the toughest opponents and the match was a draw. It seems, Girona is in a favorable situation for them so far. However, it cannot be denied that their strikers are quite productive in terms of scoring goals.
Well, if Girona is indeed a solid team. we will find out next week, Girona will host Madrid.

Talking about Real Madrid, in this match they didn't waste the opportunity to beat Las Palmas. In this match, Don Carlo tried to rotate his players. Bellingham was rested on the bench, while Brahim Diaz filled Bellingham's position. Madrid played quite impressively, there were many opportunities they had, but the Las Pamas goalkeeper really performed well even though they conceded two goals. Diaz started by scoring Madrid's lead, and as usual Joselu scored with his header.
Next week, will be an important match for Girona and Real Madrid.

The big match of the eighth week is between Al Ahli vs Ettifaq FC, the two teams have strengths that are not much different, but if you look at the odds, Al Ahli, who is the home team, is quite far ahead so this will very likely be a victory for Al Ahli, who previously lost to Al Nassr, and also head to head Al Ahli have better results, my prediction is that both teams will score goals and even though Ettifaq is not the favorite they will put up tough resistance so that the victory achieved by the home team will have to be very difficult.

Al Ittifaq is a team led by Steven Gerrard, they have played quite well this season in their 7 matches in the Saudi Pro League. Of the 7 matches they played, they won 5 of them, 1 match they lost against Al Hilal, 1 match was a draw. even though Al-Ahli is actually the favorite, and this match was held at their headquarters. But that doesn't mean Steven Gerrard will let his team be easily defeated. In the last 3 matches, Al Ittifaq achieved positive results. They also have high motivation to give resistance to the home team. BTW, in this match there will be a meeting of former teammates from Liverpool.

As for the home team, they have the advantage of having more European players, but it seems like there is a pretty serious problem for me for this team. one of them is Firmimo, he seems to have difficulty scoring goals after his debut match by scoring a hat-trick. after that, he played under performance. In the match against Al Nassr, coach Al-Ahli tried to rotate Firmino as an attacking midfielder, Mahrez as a center forward. However, its performance is even more unstable. Well, in this match will Firmino end his goal scoring drought. we will find out in the match later, and chances are, I have a different prediction than you. however, with a handicap option. Well, let's just wait.

Florentino Perez wants very much to bring Mbappe to the team. They couldn't do this during the transfer period this year, but I am certain that they will bring him to the team in the summer next year at the latest. Real Madrid can do wonders with Mbappe.

Madrid should have brought him in last summer's transfer window. but they didn't do it, I don't know whether the rumors are true or not, about Madrid getting Mbappe as a free agent. However, if they bring him in this season, Madrid will be one of the favorite teams to win the Champions League trophy. despite the predicate that Real Madrid is a team that has a winning mentality.

However, what we currently know is that Mbappe is still in the Paris Saint-Germain uniform. We don't know what Mbappe's current status is, whether Nasser Al Khelaifi has an agreement with Mbappe. in fact, we don't know, even though there are many rumors and gossip that pepper every report. but if that's true, this season will be Mbappe's last season with PSG. What we know is that his contract ends in 2024. That means PSG will probably still do something. Enrique's side, he doesn't want his first season to fail. At least, their target is the Lique 1 trophy. So, Enrique will really take advantage of Mbappe this season.
2272  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: September 27, 2023, 06:45:16 PM
I think gambling really relies on luck. we will never know how the algorithm works. even if it knows. Until now no one has been able to solve the gambling pattern. but some say it can be set by the bookie. I don't understand but I believe gambling relies on luck. even when it comes to algorithms. perhaps we can benefit if we understand this problem.

In fact, we can never formulate how to get lucky. as far as I understand and experience, luck will not always come every time, even every time we have a gambling session. Moreover, getting the jackpot comes from luck. All of this comes unexpectedly, even unknown. So, luck is a factor that is always involved in anything, including gambling.

Referring to what you said, I think gambling, especially luck-based games, for example slots, have been designed in a certain way by developers or third parties, as well as live casino betting and even sports. everything, has been arranged and adjusted.
and IMO, that's how gambling works.  So the point is, we can't ignore luck. you even know, life is also luck.

Well, that doesn't mean we will always hope and just rely on luck. there are certain variables, which can bring luck that we don't even expect. In slot games, there are several options that we can do when playing it. there are automatic spins, fast spins, and so on. We can use these variations and even combine them to get something like what we expect. If we're lucky, the free spins we get can give us a good shot. In sports, especially football, there are mechanisms we can use to reduce or minimize losses. and that was done, to get victory. the rest, let luck decide.

Manchester United decided to stop working with De Gea and they hired another goalkeeper, since Onana and Ten Hag were both working at Ajax, Ten Hag asked the team to hire Onana during the summer.
Te nHag was hoping to see a better performance from Onana than what he saw from De Gea but in the end. But Onana is not in a good situation at Manchester United and there is new a chance for Jan Oblak to join Manchester United from Atletico Madrid.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c72ml4zk4k2o


I think this is just part of a rumor or gossip that is not necessarily true, because it was too short for United to decide to look for a replacement for Onana. So far, Onana has played his role as Manchester United goalkeeper in 8 matches. 6 in the premier league, two more in different competitions. Even so, not in all matches Onana performed badly as the last wall of Manchester United's defense. at least, even if it is true as reported by Fichajes and quoted by the BBC.

Ideally, United will give Onana a chance for at least half a season. after that, they can decide to look for a replacement if Onana cannot play her role well. For me, it's unfair to only judge him on a few matches. Moreover, underperformance is not Onana's problem, but rather the Manchester United squad itself. there are many factors that make United underperform, we have even reviewed them in recent weeks.
As for Jan Oblak, this goalkeeper from Slovenia has a contract until June 2028 with Atletico Madrid and it is not certain that Atletico will release the goalkeeper later.

Bayern Munich bundesliga race continues away at RB Liezpig this weekend; and a competent win away from home would mean Bayern Munich are passing a signal, a message to other rivals that the league is theirs for another season. Do you have any predicitions ?
If you ask about predictions about who will win the match between RB Liezpig vs Bayern Munich in the near future, I will still choose Bayern Munich as the winner even though the match takes place at the Red Bull Arena Leipzig. Even though it will not be easy for Bayern Munich to win there in the near future, I think RB Liezpig will also find it difficult to withstand the onslaught and attacks from Bayern Munich who are currently having their best performance in the Bundesliga.

It will be an interesting match for us to watch between RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich this week. and it is very natural for you to say that, because Bayern Munich is still the favorite compared to the Leipzig team, even though this match will be held at the Red Bull Arena. Even so, it will be a serious challenge for Tuchel to prioritize strengthening his defense line, because what we are worried about is Bayern Munich goalkeeper Sven Ulreich.

To be honest, I don't underestimate the Bayern Munich goalkeeper, but he is not a goalkeeper that Bayern can rely on in big matches. Remember, Bayern was defeated by Leipzig with a score of 0-3 in the German Super Cup competition. Bayern were held to a draw by Leverkusen with a score of 2-2. too, despite winning against United in the Champions League. Ulreich, conceded 3 goals. So, I think Tuchel has homework to work on his strategy against RB Leipzig. Moreover, this match is an away match. for the front line, I won't doubt Kane and his colleagues to score goals. and the question is, can Sven Ulreich guard the goal well.

On the other hand, RB Leizig cannot be underestimated even though Bayern has now become a stronger team because they have Kane. Marco Rose's squad also appeared very impressive after they were defeated by Bayer Leverkusen, they were able to recover and win 4 matches with very good results.  Therefore, I say that this match should be an interesting and exciting spectacle.  For now I won't speculate too quickly, let's just wait and see these two teams meet each other in the match later.
2275  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: September 27, 2023, 09:48:54 AM

If a gambler regrets his losses, it means he doesn't really understand the risks of gambling, because only a true gambler never regrets his losses because he knows that there is always a risk of losing in gambling, so for him losing money is not something to be regretted, nor is getting money from winning something. which must be expected too, because there is no point regretting something that has been lost.

Many people don't understand how to gamble properly, sometimes most of them still like to be greedy in betting, they always bet big money but in reality they never get the slightest win, that's why never gamble if you don't understand every risk because if you understand it then there will be no regrets when gamble even if you lose. just think of gambling for fun  Wink

In fact, regret is a natural condition that can happen to anyone, where someone regrets something or something afterwards. In gambling, we often experience this condition where at this stage someone regrets their actions. in the OP's case, he regrets risking all his winnings. The reason is, what he predicted did not match his expectations. Psychologically, this condition is very understandable and can happen to everyone, especially in cases of gambling.

However, what you say is actually not wrong. a gambler should know every risk he will take. There are only two choices, win or lose. it's just that in a position when we lose, our emotions of joy will quickly change to emotions of anger. It's natural to happen, even though we actually know all the risks of what we're risking. Usually, it is at this point where the gambler wants to make another deposit. the feeling of pleasure turns into anger, ultimately wanting to recover all the losses. Well, in this phase our understanding and self-control will be involved and tested.

For veteran gamblers, this situation can be very understandable even though there is resentment within themselves over their losses. However, for novice gamblers, this condition usually triggers a strong urge to carry out another gambling session under the pretext of recovering losses. So, for me this comes back to ourselves personally. If gambling is not fun, what's more, the situation is that we are overcome by the anger of defeat. Try to calm yourself down and think more rationally. stop, and come back another day when we are in a healthy state of mind.
2276  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card gambling fuels gambling addiction on: September 27, 2023, 08:25:33 AM
I don't know how deep the debt on credit card gambling is today until I do my own research and mehn, and it's very sad, many people are in debt because they keep using their credit cards to fund their gambling hunger.

Imagine someone you know telling you that it will take him 12 years to pay off his debt, I now know why few countries don't want their citizens to gamble using their credit cards,  betting on credit cards has left too many people in thousands of debt.

Which makes me think that Credit card is far more helping to fuel gambling addiction more than anything else, you don't actually have the money, but you can still gamble, this alone will make people to lose their minds and gamble anyhow.

I'm glad I don't even like using Credit cards for gambling and my reason isn't even because of possible reckless gambling but because I don't like centralized payment solutions, you should stay away from using Credit card to gamble online, it sure would easily throw you out in the street, homeless.



Whatever the background, if an addict has the opportunity even though he doesn't have the capital to gamble, he will be tempted to fulfill his great desire. and that opportunity is the basis on which someone can ignore common sense to think rationally, when we discuss credit cards & gamblers. In fact, if a credit card is used properly, it will be very useful for the user. In cases like this, we tend to depreciate something or a tool as a victim of our own actions.

I will quote what you said, "Imagine someone you know telling you that it will take him 12 years to pay off his debt". This would be something very scary, considering that what a person does for any action including gambling becomes a big problem for someone. However, in the case of credit cards, we will actually find many problems there, not only for gambling. Many users use it carelessly, without thinking long about how to pay it off in the future if they spend a lot of money from the tool we call a credit card.

For me personally, the point is not about the credit card, but that we are the users. Likewise with gambling, we have discussed many threads and posts that always link addiction. but in essence it is not the credit card or a casino that triggers addiction, but we are the ones who let ourselves go too far without being accompanied by control and self-awareness IMO.

Barcelona draw will give hope for Real Madrid to explore more opportunities to win their opponents. Everything wil plan out for the good of Carlo Ancelotti and his players, always striving for the best results.The game between Mallorca vs Barcelona comes to 2-2 draw end. Xavi Hernandez would be in dip anger against his team, although they tried their best to level the game because the home team was very serious and keen on a win, nothing else. Mallorca having shared points with Barcelona is a dissapointing results for them, they would defend till the very end, blocking all solid areas to concede goals from their opponents.

I seem to have forgotten that there is a match scheduled between Mallorca vs Barcelona. referring to the statistics and line-up for this match, Xavi tried to rotate some of his players. At this point I don't know what Xavi is actually planning, but it's very likely that he wants to try to experiment with playing and rotating some of his players. at least, he wants to try the depth of his squad IMO. In this match, Xavi played Ferran Torres as a center forward and also played Inigo Martinez.
Well, so this is purely a tactic and strategy planned by Xavi. so, he shouldn't be angry with his decision. the reason is, we have seen Ferran Torres several times as a center forward. however, he rarely shows his skills.

What was unexpected was that Mallorca was able to take the lead in the 8th minute. In short, the match ended in a draw with a score of 2-2. With this draw, it provides an opportunity for Girona and Real Madrid to overtake the ranking currently occupied by Barcelona. Girona will play an away match against Villarreal, while Madrid will host Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabeu. one of these teams wins, will shift the top of the La Liga standings. thus, the competition for the La Liga trophy will be even more exciting in the future.

Liverpool can win the Europa League because I do not believe there is a team in the league that can defeat them right now. I am aware that Liverpool had a poor season last year, but I think this year they will perform well to win the league title and qualify for the Champions League the following year. Liverpool is a very good team, and we all know that they typically qualify for the Champions League every season, but this season due to their poor performance they did not perform well enough to qualify. The team has purchased a number of players this season to ensure that their performances seem excellent, and I am already noticing good performances from the team, which is why I predicted Liverpool can win the league.

The only team that Liverpool currently poses a threat to is Bayer Leverkusen. Leverkusen has been playing well this year and has won each of the matches they have played. This is the most crucial factor that I used to consider because if the team faces Liverpool in any games, it will be difficult because both teams are doing well this year and will be competing to win the league title.

In fact, we don't yet know how consistently Liverpool plays match after match in various competitions. Remember, at least Liverpool also has a busy schedule by participating in four competitions, and the part they are most focused on is the Premier League compared to any competition they are currently playing in.
IMO, Jurgen Klopp seems more focused on targeting his squad to finish in the top four of the Premier League. and what is certain, they must remain consistent when playing match after match in the domestic league.

However, if we talk about this competition. It is certain that Liverpool is one of the strong candidates who has a high probability of winning the European League title. However, several other teams are also targeting this competition trophy, not to mention the teams that failed in the Champions League. on the way, it will not be easy at all. like last season, Arsenal, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, were the favorites. but in fact, the three teams failed to lift the trophy in this competition.
For me, Leverkusen is more ideal for targeting the Europa League trophy. because they don't have a very busy schedule.
Well, let's just look at every match presented by the European League. At the moment there aren't many interesting matches, but after entering the knockout stage. This competition is a little more exciting.

Manchester United and Jadon Sancho are yet trying to resolve their issues. Sancho has two options either apologize or consider leaving the club.
I have a problem with Erik Ten Hag publicly throwing his players under the bus and acting all tough, it would have been different if he was all that successful and winning games left, right and center for Manchester United, but he's not doing that, the team is struggling so much and he really needs to calm down on some of the attitude he got going on.

Jadon Sancho hasn't done anything wrong, the same way Ronaldo didn't, but he was humilated and forced out of the club by Ten Hag, I don't think Sancho is going to say sorry to him, neither do i think he should; he better move on in January.

Previously, Ten Hag had sent Sancho to train alone in the Netherlands. Ten Hag claims that this step is really needed to return the winger to his best performance. He also said that Sancho is following a special program and we want him back as soon as possible, as Ten Hag said on the occasion last season. If we look closely, Ten Hag actually seems to have plans for Jadon Sancho in the future. He hopes that he will rely on this winger in the coming season "this season". but for some reason, a dispute occurred which made the situation for Ten Hag and Jadon Sancho not harmonious. perhaps, Ten Hag conducted an offensive interview that Sancho ultimately claimed was not true.

Well, after that I no longer followed any developments related to problems in the United camp. I don't know who should apologize in this case. However, from the coach's perspective, IMO, Ten Hag is currently experiencing a lot of problems with his team. several players suffered injuries, Antony's case, which is unknown how it will continue, United's performance consistency has decreased. and finally, it received a lot of negative responses from supporters of The Red Devil itself. Well, we don't really know for sure what actually happened internally at Manchester United. However, I hope everything can be discussed behind the scenes and end with a good ending.

My honest opinion on this Bayern Munich's championship chance topic is that they wouldn't have played exactly the same if they didn't sign Kane. I can see that Tuchel's system is working really well. He needed time to apply his plans for the team and he took advantage of the summer really good.

However we just can't overlook Kane's contribution level to the team right now. Despite playing in the same country and even for the same team for so many years he didn't have any problem with adaptation.

His contribution with goals and assists is incredible now and he has a big role in these very strong victories so far.  Smiley

Kane, has scored 7 goals in 5 matches and 3 assists. It has been proven that Kane can play at any club by adapting quickly. he is an established player, that's why Thuchel insisted on bringing him to the Bavarians. In fact, we no longer need to doubt it, because Kane has proven it in his 5 matches in the Bundesliga. Just imagine if the bond between the players had achieved much better, Bayern would be a team that would be respected in the Champions League.

But IMO, Bayern still hasn't reached their maximum game. I mean, some players have not been at full performance in some of their matches. Maybe, in the next few matches, Bayern will be a very strong team, especially in the Bundesliga.
It's just that Tuchel has problems with his goalkeeper. In fact, Sven Ulreich cannot be relied on, especially in big events like the Champions League, we can refer to Bayern versus United. Sven Ulreich, really played far below the standards of a quality goalkeeper.  If Neue never recovers from his injury, in the winter transfer window Tuchel will inevitably have to look for a goalkeeper he can rely on.
