I really hoped to see West Ham winning the title and they did it. Managing to do this in regular time is another impressive feat by West Ham. Actually the winner goal came in the last minutes and this didn't give Fiorentina much time to score another goal. Fiorentina were really good at answering first but this time the time wasn't enough for it.

I appreciate their effort as well but congratulations to West Ham on this dedicated effort and win at the end. I was waiting for a close score and it really happened. Italian teams are indeed having a bad season now.

Harry Kane is likely to get an offer from Manchester United side as well. In this case I don't know if he would be very eager to leave the country. Yeah of course we are talking about Real Madrid on one hand. They have a much bigger potential to win titles with him rather than Manchester United on paper. But still unless Kane thinks of leaving England this wouldn't change anything.

But maybe there might still be a chance for Real Madrid. Because I don't know if Manchester United would be eager to pay a sum over 100 million euros to sign Kane. If Kane doesn't get such offer in England then Real Madrid should go for him. I know the amount is really a lot but he can really be very productive for many more years which Real Madrid are searching for exactly.

There have been rumours linking Hamilton with Ferrari for next season. They don't look like they will go away easily either. I didn't take it seriously first but now I'm wondering if this might really happen. Ferrari technically have a more powerful car than Mercedes now. But the mistakes with the strategies are just killing the races of their drivers.

Mercedes have started to make some good improvement as well though. They had 2 drivers on podium in Spain. But I don't know if Mercedes have a brighter future than Ferrari now. Honestly as long as Ferrari keep the people in the team who play a big role in these mistakes, there is no meaning in Hamilton's joining Ferrari.

Fiorentina's winning odd is gradually going down while we are getting close to the finale tonight. On a gambling website I even saw that the odds were the same for these teams. I'm curious about why West Ham dropped down to this from being the favourite of the title. This is like the first ever head-to-head game between Fiorentina and West Ham.

Both teams would like to weigh each other first in the first half and then we would see some real action in my opinion. But this game is a huge candidate to end by extra time or penalty shoot-outs probably. But at the end I'm still expecting to see West Ham reaching the title and joining the Europa League group stage next time.

There have been some rumours around like a team from Saudi Arabia want to sign Icardi. If we really see an offer from such team then Galatasaray's chance will be really slim about signing him again. I mean Icardi will have to make a choice between a lot of money and the team he really liked to play for so far. I don't know what his choice would be at this point.

Galatasaray had better make their plans according to that. I haven't heard about any alternative striker to Icardi. They need to work hard to find one if they fail in signing him again.

Thinking about all of these things I don't think it is a good idea for Real Madrid to replace Benzema with him. There are much better alternatives. Why would you sign one of the worsts among them?
I do agree with it and real madrid needs to find a better candidate to be used as CF. Benzema was alwasy playing as central striker in madrid. it has become his best position and madrid needs to find a natural striker that can fill benzema's posision.

I will never agree if havertz will fill benzema's spot. Kane? no man this guy was actually useless as striker he has got nothing since he was playing for totenham. I will prefer osimhen or someone else.


Actually I wouldn't call Kane useless. Yeah he has played for Tottenham for so many years and he has zero titles in hand. But his individual performance has always been impressive. For example this season. Despite their not even being able to qualify for a European tournament Kane still scored 30 goals. I think this is very amazing.

Kane just insisted on staying there all the time. But after this kind of a season I think he absolutely deserves a much bigger team and titles finally. Real Madrid are one of the teams which can give him exactly what he wants. However I still expect him to stay in England and join Manchester United probably.

Allegri still has two more years on his contract. I'm curious about whether the board are willing to keep him for at least another season now. Because this season can't be called as a decent one for Juventus. They couldn't even qualify for the Champions League after that punishment. They couldn't reach even the finale in the Europa League either.

In addition to that Juventus completed the season with zero titles. This can't be acceptable for one of the biggest teams in Italy. People are right about criticizing Allegri at this point. Honestly I would like to see him being replaced this summer.

I am not sure if Liverpool sold Mane because they felt they will buy Nunez to replace him. If it was what happened, it is a dump move by Liverpool and a let down to Mane. Just because Nunez scored good number of goals in an unpopular league doesn't mean that he is fit to replace Mane who has a very large work rate in Liverpool.
Actually, Liverpool's selling of Mane is a big mistake they made and I am sure they regretted it at one point or the other even if they are not going to admit it.

Totally agreed. Nunez isn't even a player who has the same characteristics with Mane. I don't think it would be fair to expect the same effort as Mane from him. Actually the natural positions of these players are already different. Diaz is closer to Mane's role right now actually. But he was also away from so many games due to injury.

I don't know how much Nunez would improve his game but I hope to not see Diaz injured again next season. Because since the day he joined his contribution has been quite impressive. In the games Salah was like a ghost Diaz took big responsibilities.

There was actually a good effort by Hamburg in the first half and they finished it 1-0 ahead as well. This must have given them some hope for a comeback even though it was still looking really difficult. But it didn't take Stuttgart a long time to end their hopes with consecutive three goals. Stuttgart really showed how much they want to stay in the Bundesliga.

Hamburg failed in their second attempt in a row to promote to the Bundesliga. They just need to work harder to not leave their job to chance from now on. They must find a way to finish in top 2.

Havertz is not even a natural striker. You know he is naturally an attacking midfielder and can play as a winger when he is needed as well. However Chelsea wanted to use him as a centre-forward for a long time which helped him start to adapt to a new position. However I can't say that he is a consistent scorer either.

Thinking about all of these things I don't think it is a good idea for Real Madrid to replace Benzema with him. There are much better alternatives. Why would you sign one of the worsts among them?
2411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: June 05, 2023, 11:50:42 AM
It was unbelievable to see all the teams from the 14th position to the last one got a draw on the final week of the season. It was a really thrilling kind of ending to the season while determining the last relegating team. I thought that Valladolid would be able to beat Getafe home and get out of the relegation zone. But they couldn't prevent a 0-0 draw at the end.

I was positive about them especially because of what they did to Barcelona. Maybe Barcelona were comfortable already but it was still a great work by Valladolid as they won by 3-1. However they couldn't use this as a motivation source unfortunately.

Normally Spezia were the better side in head-to-head games against Verona this season. But here we are still about to watch one last game between to decide the team relegating. It is so difficult to predict the winner of the match honestly. Because the general statistics of these teams are nearly the same now. But I still want to rely on their head-to-head games at least.

I see Spezia slightly ahead of Verona as a result and I think they will show this in this game as well. But the score should also be like that. I think Spezia will win by 1-0 or 2-1.
2413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Turkish Super League 2022/23 Season on: June 05, 2023, 11:36:14 AM
It was way beyond my expectation as well. I thought that Fenerbahce's series of not losing to Galatasaray away would continue here. Because Galatasaray already guaranteed their championship before. But Fenerbahce could have finished the season as the 2nd at least. But it looks like they weren't caring about that at all. Because they completed the game without a single shot on target.

This was the best way of celebrating the championship for Galatasaray indeed. Icardi is on his way to return to PSG now though so I wonder what Galatasaray will do about signing him on a permanent deal.
2414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: June 04, 2023, 11:29:47 PM
Liverpool will need to learn their lesson from their mistakes during this season. Klopp's effort wasn't enough to carry the team to top four in the final moments of the season. They started a consistent form very late in the season that it wasn't enough as a result. Qualifying for the Europa League should be considered as a quite unsuccessful result for this team.

Because in fact the player quality is very high now. But the team lost a lot of chemistry and stayed that way for a long time. Mane's departure also affected them in a bad way. Especially Salah I mean because he had big problems on playing comfortable without him for a while.
2415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: June 04, 2023, 11:24:44 PM
Verstappen has a car which goes on like it is on rails. There is just no competition for him compared to other teams. And combining this powerful car with a very talented driver like Verstappen results in this. It was a very easy work for Verstappen. He was even so comfortable to go for fastest lap by pitting for fresh soft tyres. He must be getting bored all alone so we sometimes hear him talking to the team about some things.  Grin

It was really good to see a big performance by Mercedes drivers. But I still can't be sure about whether this performance would be consistent from now on. Because we see quite different results on different tracks for them.
2416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 04, 2023, 11:18:13 PM
Bayern Munich, Dortmund and Leipzig are regulars in the Champions League from now on. But Union Berlin is the new member around here to join along them there. After competing in the Europa League they surely gained some experience in a European tournament. But there is still a big difference between the Europa League and Champions League.

If Union Berlin don't get lucky with group stage draw then they will most probably experience the tournament by being beaten hard. But the most important thing for them is to make as much money as possible in this tournament now.
Can you remember when the season started newly it was Union Berlin that was showing signs of overtaking Bayern Munich and not even Dortmund. Union Berlin  gave Bayern some kind of fight until at the time they dropped from the top one and Leipzig came into the fight. But at a particular time towards the ending of the season that was when Dortmund came into the picture.
This shows that if Berlin signs new players and reinforce their team, they can at least qualify from the group stage of the Champions League.

Yeah I remember those times as well. They looked really promising for even the Bundesliga title but it was still hard to believe in them until the end of the season of course. But it was still great to see them maintaining their mathematical chance for the title for a long time period. They even weren't far away from the leader in points in this time period.

I don't know anything about their transfer budget but they really need to make some new transfers to consolidate the squad for the Champions League indeed. The current quality level is nothing higher than the Europa League in my opinion.

It is very impressive to see Heat doing this great this season even in the absence of one of their most important players who is Tyler Herro. That is a big dedication example by them. They started the final series 1-0 behind against Nuggets maybe but I don't think this series will be easy for Nuggets either. I hope to see 7 games which would be lovely to watch.

There is less than an hour left for Game 2 to start. Caleb Martin's condition is still questionable. His score contribution has also been valuable for Heat. It feels like Nuggets will get another win home.
2418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: June 04, 2023, 12:52:04 PM
Newcastle were the most surprising team of the season by finishing as the fourth. Honestly I wasn't expecting to see them doing a this big work from them because of not strengthening the squad too much. They had an average level of players mostly in the end. But Eddie Howe still did a great work by the right strategies. Of course they made some decent transfers which played an important role in this success.

Right now they have reached their target to ease making bigger transfers. Because the Champions League ticket can have a big influence on the decisions of bigger names. This team have such a potential now and bringing solid names can make them become more competitive in not only the Premier League but also the Champions League.

As far as I know Vinicius Junior has already made a statement that he was eager to stay at Real Madrid. It would have been meaningless if he decided to leave just because of racist actions of some supporters. In the end these unfortunate incidents can follow him wherever he goes. It is the best for him to stay there and fight for Real Madrid's successes for long years.

He has a great chemistry with the team now as he is the most performing member of the team. The links with Chelsea are indeed fake ones and on Transfermarkt it is even indicated as 6% probability of his transfer to Chelsea which is near improbable.
2420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: June 04, 2023, 12:42:08 PM
I'm also among the people who are expecting to see a much better effort from Sevilla in the La Liga next season. I think and hope that this bad look was a one-time thing for them. Because I don't remember them this much bad in the recent years. They have like always been in top 4 by finishing as the third or fourth. This season it took them a long time to pull themselves together but they made it anyway.

Even in a season like this they proved that they can win a prestigious title like the Europa League one. Mendilibar looks like the right manager for this team now.
