Yeah, the pressure for the teams in the top 3 has gradually mounted. If you did hear the comments from Havertz, he said, they need to put pressure by ensuring they make those wins and hope for a break.
Lately, Arsenal has been in there best form and Saka most of all, a scoring streak that doesn’t seem to end real soon. You can almost bet on him to be making out those goals for Arsenal and with Arsenal scoring so many goals in there fixture, it’s not going to be an easy season.

Manchester City on the other hand haven’t been so impressing, there goal margin haven’t been much, winning games with just a single goal. That’s not what is hoped to come from this Pep Guardiola side. They barely escaped Bournemouth at the vitality stadium today and it was by far an important 3 points for them.

A 1 point difference between the top 3 teams is a good drama this season in the Premier League. I still expect Manchester City to win the title this season, but the next 5 matches will definitely be tough. The match schedule may be unfavorable, but I think they can have a great run.

Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal are great opponents, then Aston Villa and Brighton are also good. If Manchester City can overcome all these challenges without losing, then they will win the title. March was a tough month for Manchester City, but I think they have to get it done in order to maintain their dominance.

Barcelona had an interesting game today and if they can olay like this and replicate the performance in their upcoming champions league match against Napoli in their home, they will win the game with a very good margin. Although Napoli a much stronger team than the one they played against today. But this same performance they exhibited today can go a long way to get them a victory in their next champions league game. They can still finish in the top four of the table and that’s what I don’t even have any doubt about.

Joao Felix have talked about his keen interest in Barcelona several times before even after he was loaned to the club this season. He has a lot of potentials in him and with a good management, he will be one of the great young players Barcelona will have after a long term. I wish Barcelona build young players like they did in the past as the case of Lionel Messi then. They now believe in getting already made players from other clubs to keep their glory days still alive when in the real sense their closest opponent, Real Madrid are doing it the better way by scouting for young players and build or integrate them into the club for long term benefits of the club.
Impressive, it was a good impression of how Barcelona ended their home game today. They haven't been consistent, but in this match they improved. I like their two matches including this one, previously they also played well against Napoli even though it ended 1-1.

Barcelona fired 18 shots and half of them were on target. 4 goals without reply is proof that their defense is working well, Stegen is also good, especially in making several saves. Barcelona must improve and but they must stand tall with all their financial problems. I think Barcelona still has a chance in La Liga, but that's not more than 20% of the total opportunities available. Real Madrid owns 60% and 40% between Barcelona and Girona.

Newcastle have just conceded one more goal to allow Arsenal lead with three goals. So much jubilation from the fans as Saka put the ball into the goal net after a skillful finish and put the ball in the far side of the post. Arsenal are really in good form and nothing can stop them from triumphing in this match. They are so ready to fight for the top spot and the way there playing, they’ll make it to that top once more. Newcastle United performance has reduced so much and unlike the way they started at tge beginning of the season. I don’t even see them getting the possibility of making it to the top four with this performance by end of the season.
The match ended in Arsenal's favor. Arteta's troops scored a big win with a score of 4-1 over Eddie Howe's men in this match. Newcastle's defending was poor and they made some silly mistakes, but this was also due to Arsenal's fine performance.

Arsenal utilizes the individual abilities of its players to dominate the game and maximize teamwork to score lots of goals. There were 2 goals in the first half, then 3 goals occurred in the second half where the score 4-1 was the final result of this match. Newcastle are unstable and Loris Karius doesn't look like a good goalkeeper since Nick Pope was injured. Martin Dúbravka is no different, he has appeared 12 times this season in the Premier League.

I agree that bitcoin won't be worth much forever, but going to zero makes very little sense right now.
If someone believes bitcoin will eventually go to zero, then they should not be a holder like a holder who is optimistic about bitcoin's future. Increasing real use cases, growing adoption as well as more industry growth will keep bitcoin competitive in the market. Traders will always trade it, adopters will use it as currency, and so will investors.

Nothing is free from risk, including bitcoin and its future. In fact, we never know how long Bitcoin will dominate the crypto market capitalization when competition to be the best is always pursued. So risk considerations certainly cannot be ignored.

I took the initiative to plan this which I will do in stages and my plan is, using $3 a day from my mother's grocery store in 30 days = $90 that I will spend in Bitcoin every month. And I will also increase my purchases when my mother has excess money or unexpected money because that often happens.
Really, you can do it and do it consistently. The realization of the profits you hope to get really depends on how long you are able to hold your mother's investment. You may want to consider buying heavily while prices are low and selling during the next bull cycle. If you just accumulate for the next 10 years without selling, you may end up with less bitcoin than if you sold and re-invested at a low price.

Regardless of your investment goals, you just need to know that bitcoin is the most potential asset that can give investors returns. $90 a month is definitely better than nothing, but have you told your mom the consequences including wallet security and private key backup?

Whenever Antonio Martial is fit, he is the best option for Manchester United leading the attack, I can recall vividly the effects and presence he had on the pitch during the game against Eveton, that was during the first half of the Premier League season. Erik Ten Hag has always trusted him but, injuries has always been a drawback. I know Jose Mourinho can wait to see him leave Manchester United lol.

Rashford and Bruno Fernandez has created less chances for him ( Rasmus Hojlund )and tue goals he scored during the Champions League Competition are all goals scored one way or the other by himself without the assistance of these players mentioned.

No! Too much of that injury, Manchester United cannot rely on such a player if they're making plans to win the Premier League or whatever Competition. Antonio Martial has no other option but to leave.
Anthony Martial's success story in the Premier League with Manchester United may have to end with him leaving for another team. His contract expires at June 30, 2024 and this may be his last season with Manchester United. Anthony Martial only has 13 appearances this season with Manchester United, he has 1 goal and 1 assist in the Champions League in 4 appearances.

His form was hampered by injury and he had to fight for his place. The days are getting more difficult for Martial considering that Ten Hag is starting to get along with Rasmus Højlund who has scored 7 goals in 20 appearances in the Premier League and 5 goals in 6 Champions League appearances. Rasmus Højlund is starting to get on the scene and he will grow even more if everyone supports him.

Villarreal are trying to be more powerful in away matches and want to continue their record of winning, they did what they did to Barcelona defeated them in their home, and they are doing the same thing to Real Sociedad, seeing this game like this didn't surprise me because a weak team destroyed a popular and strong teams like Barcelona, definitely their is slight improvement and also have a good record in the last 5 matches, right now nothing can be concluded because the game is still on, right now the goal are 1-2, and they were given 6 minutes extra time hope nothing change after the game, but it's have changed to favour Villarreal by adding one again by A. Sorloth at 95 minutes, making it 1-3.
Not all teams that dominate a match are able to win that match. This was experienced by Real Sociedad today where they really dominated the game with a high percentage of ball possession, total number of shots, shots on goal compared to Villarreal. This was clearly unexpected because Villarreal was very lucky with all their chances, so Real Sociedad really had to regret it.

The following displays the match statistics:

If it's like this then the EPL will slowly disintegrate. Everyone should have the same rights, because they are in one main competition. It's a shame for a small club, if everything is measured in money. Small clubs that are able to compete will easily be eliminated and champions are also determined by money. If something like this happens then UEFA and FIFA must immediately step in. Because they have the authority to make football a business that is in a state of order and fair play. I am waiting for the latest news release from the FA, hopefully they are not silent because of money.
Apart from Manchester City's strong financial strength, I also want to know what makes Manchester City unable to be punished after its alleged violations? It is absurd to say that Manchester City escaped punishment because they had a lot of money, but there must be other reasons why Manchester City was not punished.

Everton have money too, other teams have money too, so if bribery is what lets Manchester City escape punishment then the FA is likely doomed. I firmly believe there is a reason why Manchester City cannot be punished or has not been punished, while I ignore its financial strength in the case.

Athletic Bilbao should not be underestimated this season because they have capable strength and they are also a team that has so far been quite successful in maintaining its consistency, for the opportunity to finish in the top 4 of the final La Liga standings. In the future, several teams still have the same chance in my opinion because neither team is far behind on points.
Girona, Barcelona Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid do not have a long distance in points and if we look at these four teams they also have fairly equal strengths.
This season is still a long way to go and in my opinion all 4 teams have the same chance of getting tickets to the Champions League next season.
Since the last time they ended the season in 16th place in the 2017-2018 season, Athletic Bilbao has become a team that usually ends the season in the top 10 of the standings. However, what is surprising is that Bilbao has never qualified for the European League or Champions League every season. This season Bilbao have only played in La Liga and the Copa Del Rey, which gives them a lot of rest compared to Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

This season Bilbao has a better performance than last season, but I think Bilbao will soon go down and will have difficulty getting up as happened in previous seasons. Of course there is nothing to underestimate about them, but considering the difficulty of Bilbao maintaining their form then they are doubtful.

If that's true, the campaign just started a few days ago and is currently running for its first week. I saw different domain where Bons.com and Bons.io directed to the same casino. The campaign only pays $250 to all participants per week with $50 per participant indicating that they don't have much of a promotional budget, so it's probably true, everyone should be careful regardless of the results of your review of the casino.

They don't have an ANN Thread but they are currently running a signature campaign.

I can relate to this mate from my recent try winning .
I played Blackjack in an old casino in which i completely lose my 100 dollars capital
then My wife tell me to try another 100 dollars in separate site in which I tried
because this time with her consent and indeed I made that 100bucks up to almost 400 dollars and then i quit.
this means sometimes we need to try our luck in different sites to make sure if luck is truly not on our side that time.
I know, sometimes you need luck at different sites to win something big rather than just sticking to one casino in the long term. I heard about the myth that there are casinos that mark your ID and make you lose all your money every time you make a deposit, they don't give you winnings and every win is rigged. Of course I can't completely believe in the myth that all winnings already set, but something is definitely different in provably fair crypto casinos.

Trying your luck at different casinos is worth a try, but the more you try different casinos the less secure your personal data may be especially at casinos that require you to pass KYC. Gambling at many centralized casinos makes you risk the security of your personal data, so perhaps that data will never be safe forever because not all casinos can guarantee that their users' data is safe.

I checked your Instagram profile which you linked in your profile, OP you are a cool and passionate guy. You must have learned a lot about bitcoin, especially in the context of an asset that has the potential to provide returns, but you have to care about privacy when you become a user. Don't tell anyone how many bitcoins you have, it's too risky for anyone regardless of your physical condition. I hope the best for you and your investment plans, keep up the enthusiasm.

Downwards movement? If there's a piece of negative news maybe. I mean the US stock market is kind of bullish right now, and the S&P500 just had its new ATH,  and both are correlated with each other. TBH, I don't see any reason for Bitcoin to go down below $50,000 at least for the next 2-3 weeks. Tongue
That may be true, but in the last hour the price of bitcoin has tested the $50k support although now the price is back above $51k. Positive sentiment will not be maintained forever, so even though we are optimistic about waiting for bigger movements, the trend can change quickly.

Some people panic too much when corrections occur and this usually results in price dumping, and in the last 4 days I can confirm that the daily trading volume seems to continue to be less. This indicates a correction and today it occurred.

I can't predict this match even though Inter Milan is favored maybe because of playing at home but there is no guarantee Inter Milan will win, I think this match will end with a low goal and for under 2.5 goals not a bad idea. Atletico Madrid will play more defensively and hope this match will end in a draw so in the second leg Atletico Madrid will try to win it, it's just that today Inter Milan will not let it be easy after all Inter Milan will try to take advantage of the opportunity to play at home so that in the second leg their duties will be easier.
Atletico Madrid are not favorites in their away match against Inter. Atletico Madrid is considered not to have a high chance of winning the match, while Inter, who is playing at home, is the favorite. The second leg would be very interesting if Inter and Atletico Madrid draw today, but the chances of Inter winning at home today are too high.

I don't think Atletico Madrid can be underestimated, they are a solid team whether defending or counter-attacking. Inter has a chance to win, Atletico Madrid also has it, so regardless of the odds for both, a draw is also possible and you should not ignore it.

yeah. Since Girone got defeated by Real Madrid, they started getting weaker, though if we are to compare Girona's performance to Barcelona's performance, there is still a difference, as I think they are doing better than Barcelona. However, maybe Girona is finding it difficult to go back to their form, thinking about how consistently they have performed from the start of the season to the day Real Madrid defeated them and took over their position.

I think that is what makes them feel weak, but Girona shouldn't get weaker because Barcelona are also coming. For them and I believe Barcelona are going to dominate these matches so they can get the second position and maybe be ready for Real Madrid and also ready for the title race. I can see that Barcelona are also showing some consistency in their matches, so let’s see how it will be.
So far Girona is only slightly better than Barcelona in terms of points recorded, goal productivity and number of goals conceded. Girona is 2 points ahead of Barcelona, ​​has 2 goals more than Barcelona and has 2 goals less than the number of goals conceded by Barcelona. However, in terms of squad quality and depth, Barcelona is still better than Girona.

Moreover, Girona may soon face the reality that they will lose their place in second place if they lose their next matches against Rayo Vallecano and Mallorca. Girona's performance has decreased and Barcelona's performance has increased despite losing 5 points in their last 5 matches. Barcelona has a big chance of staying safe in the Champions League zone, but Xavi may need to improve his performance so he can continue to give his best until the end of the season.

Inter have all the criteria for a team to win this match, they have managed to achieve consecutive wins in the Serie in the last six matches. The defense is very strong, the front line is very productive and what Atletico is most afraid of is that Inter has always won in the last five matches when playing at their home ground. This match will certainly take place with high tension, I really know Atletico's style of play, they always show rough play when they are under pressure.

Inter must be able to maintain the game in order to win, Atletico also wants the same thing. Anything can still happen as long as the match is still in progress, Atletico must be able to defend against attacks from Inter players.
Inter are indeed favorites at home at the moment, but we know that Atletico Madrid is a team that can be a threat to any team. Atletico Madrid's performance in the Champions League this season is not bad, they are unbeaten and are the second team with high goal productivity after Manchester City. Atletico Madrid's defense was also good in the group stages, but of course the pressure is increasing for any team that advances to the round of 16.

I tend to like Spanish football more than Italian. I hope this will be the most interesting match than other matches at the same time. Atletico Madrid could be the team that will win this match today, so Inter should need to increase their awareness of this potential.

Manchester City have had a busy schedule recently because they have to catch up on their match deficit, starting with the first leg of the UCL match against Copenhagen, then Chelsea 4 days after and the upcoming match with Brentford. Even though their schedule is busy, the bookies still give them small odds, so far they have got @1.17 on Rollbit.

Since they really need 3 points here to keep up with Arsenal and Liverpool in the PL title race, I think they will win, not sure they can get a win with a 2 goal difference but at least they will get 3 points.
Low odds indicate that Manchester City is the favorite to win the match. Their match schedule is indeed busy and this means that some players are not fully fit to play other matches. Of course, fatigue will make Manchester City's performance not optimal, but as the defending champion and also the quality of its players, Manchester City is expected to be able to win its home match.

Brentford is unlikely to be able to beat Manchester City, who previously lost maximum points against Chelsea. Manchester City will ensure victory to gain tight competition with Liverpool with a difference of 1 point. They have to win this match so they can still hope to win the title at the end of the season.
