We agree, because after all the Champions League is different from other domestic leagues. in the round of 16 and the next round, each team will play 2 matches, either home or away. in this phase, each team will maximize its strength when competing against other teams. one mistake made by a player can have fatal consequences for the team as a whole. even if it's a strong team, they have the potential to be overthrown by teams that we don't expect. currently, the teams that are predicted to be strong competitors in the race for the trophy are Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. for me, these three teams have a chance to appear in the Champions League final. it's just that, we never know until it's time for the final round to be held. it could be that the three teams I mentioned were defeated by other teams who are also still involved in this competition. after all, the round of 16 had not yet been held. so, it is still not possible to determine which team will enter the final. so far, we can only assume and speculate because it is based on the team's strength, performance, and also how they play their matches in this competition. for me personally, I prioritize the beauty of the game in modern football.  Whoever the team is competing, let's just enjoy it. moreover, ahead of the crucial rounds until the final round. and there is no other way, but to follow every development until the end of this competition.

that's what happens in Ligue 1. because each club owner may have a different investment for their club. and the gap with other clubs will be clear when PSG can gather Mbappe, Messi, and Neymar. I'm sure no club in Ligue 1 could do that in that situation.
PSG seems to have to make plans for some of the top players in the transfer market that they can get. They have dominated in Ligue 1, but they will be doubted when they are in European competitions like the Champions League. PSG may have a chance to progress from the last 16 of the Champions League, but they will not win it.

I believe Messi is a better football player, but I'm sure Cristiano Ronaldo is a more hardworking football player. Even though he is 38 years old, he still runs a lot on the pitch and puts a lot of effort. I think it's impossible to do that with God-given talents. These are achievements that are the result of hard work, discipline and a regular life. Ronaldo is above all a good professional. And he works hard to live like a good professional.

The present poor performance from the Borrusia Dortmund, they deserved it because they derived more pleasure and making enormous profits from selling their key players other than aiming to winning major titles. Last season would have become one of the good moments that would come from the players and the team's supporters, but the team choose to ruined it by losing their last match that would have settled the difference between them and Bayern Munich who was also the exact same points. Dortmund have to stop selling key players to other elite clubs and decides to stay firm and build their club surround these incredible players.

We will read a lot of discussions and rumors about Mbappe in the coming days. I am sure he will want to leave Paris Saint-Germain FC and go to a more ambitious team in the Champions League. Paris Saint-Germain FC are going through a restructuring with Luis Enrique. And they are giving good signals for the future. But I don't think Mbappe can wait for them for a few more years, and we know he has earned a lot of money so far. His last contract with Paris Saint-Germain FC brought him good money. I think he will want to go to a team where he wants to win more trophies instead of earning more money. If earning more money was his first priority, he would have said yes to the crazy offer made by the Arabs at the beginning of the season.

After Ancelotti contract extension with Real Madrid, several interesting rumors have also spread, namely that there are attempts to bring in defenders on short contracts or on loan.
He is Manchester United player Raphael Varane, after all, Ancelotti desire to bring in the Manchester United defender has also been confirmed.
It just that we don't know whether Manchester United will actually loan out the defender they have or keep him because Manchester United itself is not in good condition this season.

Bringing in defenders is actually not priority for Real Madrid and of course without bringing in Raphael Varane they can still play well.
In addition, in the next few matches, we will only play against team that are not much stronger than them, so using the composition of reserve players have will definitely still be able to provide maximum performance.

Salernitana will meet Juventus in two events at once, the Italian league and the Italian Cup in the next few days, I know Salernitana is at the bottom of the Italian league so it is not a club that poses a serious threat to Juventus, but with a short time gap between the two matches, Allegri has to organize and rotate the players so they don't feel tired due to this busy schedule. At least the Juventus players are in good form.

Victory is of course Juventus' main goal, especially in the Italian league, they have to catch up with Inter Milan, that's why they have to be able to take advantage and wait for Inter Milan to make another mistake so that Juventus can overtake them at the top of the standings and win the title this season. that's what all Juventus supporters might hope for. My prediction is that Juventus will win the match against Salernitana

Just excited to watch big match today, absolutely going to stay home and enjoyed an entertaining game today. Both clubs are not in the UEFA Champions League competition, giving them more time to focused on winning top matches in EPL because it's solely their domestic league and winning is very important. Both clubs are very careful not to jeopardize their chances of winning, a strict measures will be implemented. Liverpool vs Newcastle United tonight, this is the first EPL fixture for the new year and everyone looking forward to watch the first EPL club that would accumulates three points in 2024.

Many people believe the rich win more than the poor in gambling. This is because they see them as people who have more money to spend than the poor, who are just squeezing out that money to gamble, but the truth is that the poor spend, the rich spend, who will win, and the winning is based on what tactic the person who is gambling uses to gamble.
 
Sometimes most people who are rich don't even gamble up to the way the poor people gamble, and they win because they gamble more. The poor gamble up to the extent that they so much believe they can win to change their lives. Why do the rich gamble to win and add to their wealth? Theoretically speaking, I see the poor as people who gamble more and win more.

This method is considered not good, having to sell assets just to finance gambling because gambling should only be entertainment, not a game that makes a lot of money, let alone making it a source of income, so stopping gambling when you lose is the right choice, not selling assets to fulfill pent-up emotions due to experiencing defeat, let alone gambling, trying to recover from defeat.

I know that being a gambler is hard, it's hard to control yourself, especially when you experience defeat and emotions, but every gambler also has the choice to follow his feelings or stop there so as not to sell assets, let alone seek loans from banks, let alone loan sharks, that is not recommended and is not a good way to become a responsible gambler. Gambling should be entertainment, not a place to make money

No matter how hard it is to change someone's behavior, I think it still has a chance to change, especially if there is a strong effort from that person to try to change their behavior. If they really want change and are willing to do what needs to be done, they can do it, especially if people close to them are willing to help them through it all. This will not be difficult for the person and his family because they will help each other to survive even in difficult conditions. But the problem is that maintaining the desire to persist will inevitably lead to temptations that can make them return to gambling again.

What you say is very correct, when someone gambles just for fun, of course they won't care about the losses they get in gambling and they won't spend a lot of money on the gambling they play, because they know when they will spend time gambling and time to stop gambling.
It is true that in every game we will have wins and losses and we cannot avoid this. If we don't want big losses, of course we have to be able to control ourselves in every game we play.

There's no way that your win is assured when the game hasn't ended yet, it's the name of the game after all and there's always a comeback when it comes to sports so definitely no way to be sure of a win until the game's over and yes it's definitely frustrating but I don't think that it should be the thing that's going to make you feel about the game the most, you at least should feel some admiration to the fact that they've defied the odds and they've won, I think that it's awe inspiring and admirable that I wouldn't be mad if it ever happens to me when I bet.

Loses more has nothing to do with our financial condition, all of us can lose more regardless how is our financial condition. It is more about how we control our gambling activity, if we lose our control then no matter how rich we are, we can be poor later. The topic you are referring to is just an opinion from the poster based on something that he knows himself. I think there is no specific official study that evaluate about who get more losses between rich, average and poor. I'm an average person, I cant say that I lose more and I also cant say that I win more. Gambling is all about luck, sometime we win and some other time we lose. However, the house has bigger advantage than the player so it is quite normal if we lose more often than win.

gambling just for fun with the money spent measured according to your income and not addiction is actually no problem.
because if it's just for fun to lose, you won't sell assets just to gamble.
maybe the experience that happened to your father will be different from the experience of others

Juventus is quite successful when in a match they can score a goal before their opponent, and Juventus will try to score again if their opponent manages to equalize and unfortunately, Roma failed to do that so they had to accept defeat with this narrow score, and this time Lukaku failed to bring his team out of the game. pressure.
Juventus is of course very happy with this victory, especially since their competitor Inter Milan only managed to get 1 point against Genoa and that was quite disappointing, so the competition between the two teams is very interesting to always look forward to and this is a warning for Inter Milan because their competitors continue to stick closely to them and their position is not yet safe.

It looks like this is a great decision for all parties, Ancelotti is a great coach and his departure could create a problem for Real Madrid as finding a good coach for such a team is not so easy. I also heard that Ancelotti will continue to work with the Brazilian team, but now I see that Ancelotti has extended his contract with Real until 2026. This is probably the right decision, if it brings good results for the team and Ancelotti is comfortable working here, then why change anything.

Yes Arsenal have fallen far behind while Man City were behind them in the points table while Man city are ahead of them in the points table even though they are on par with them.  So this is a big chance for Arsenal to get 3 more points and overtake Man City and Aston Villa to occupy the 2nd position in the points table.  Hope Arsenal don't miss this opportunity as their opponent Fulham is much weaker than them.  So their win here is pretty sure.  Still, they should play with caution

There is really no team at the moment that is playing a perfect season. Real Madrid is strong, Manchester City isn't playing perfectly, Bayern Munich had some problems during the group stage in some games and there is no team in my opinion that looks so dominant at the moment that it has a unique favorite role in the Champions League. Arsenal has had some bad results despite playing quite well, but that doesn't mean a lot for the Champions League I believe. But Porto should be an opponent that Arsenal can handle. The coming weeks are important for them and there is also the FA Cup game against Liverpool next week.

Champions League ticket is made the top priority of every club that makes top four. Dortmund can easily fall back into the race since I don't see any important contenders, Stuttgart and RB Leipzig are temperamental clubs that will step down when their time comes. Borrusia Dortmund are not regarded a threat in the next 4-5 Bundesliga matches because they are unimpressive and have nothing to compete against. Edin Terzic will either make substantial purchases in the January transfer market in order to assist his club return to a competitive level. There is no time for any side to rest because everyone is focused on earning three points for their team's collective gain.
