Saua was surprised by Alaves' quick goal in the ongoing match. Barcelona were caught off guard in the first minute allowing Alaves to steal a quick goal. In the 15th minute, Barcelona responded with full control of the game, Alaves who took the lead now defended and tried to maintain their lead.
With so much time remaining, there is still a good chance Barcelona can equalize and turn the game around. Especially with the amount of possession they had, they could have pulled a goal back before the end of the first half.

This was Dortmund's second defeat in a row, many even regretted that Dortmund couldn't win even though overall Dortmund had a greater chance of winning, Dortmund couldn't do much when the home team had more control over the ball game, even though Dortmund was ahead in the game. first half but in fact Dortmund did not succeed in scoring an additional goal to achieve victory and as a result Dortmund had to accept defeat at home to Stuttgart.

Guraissy return to the club is indeed a big advantage for the club, as we saw previously, if Stuttgart suffered 2 defeats when Guraissy was not there, now Guraissy has returned to play and scored a goal to determine the victory for Stuttgart this times.
Dortmund defeats yesterday was shocking, I must say. Dortmund are only competitive but don't pull confidence infront of winning trophies in tournaments. What's actually wrong with the club, they only channel their energy in the transfer market, because that's the stream they do make huge profits other than focusing on lifting titles. There's a problem circulating the connections of Borrusia Dortmund with trophies? Exactly what I'm thinking because you can not tell a team that's enchanced and experienced like Dortmund would settle for lesser results till this moment.

It's true that I also did not expect that Dortmund would lose the match, even though in the early round Dortmund managed to take a one-goal lead through a goal from Niclas Fullkrug, I thought it was an early goal for Dortmund's victory, but it turned out that until the second half ended there were no more goals they created there, and VfB managed to catch up with the lag by turning things around to 2 - 1 until the minute ended. With this result, it can be concluded that VfB is not an ordinary team this season even though last season there was nothing promising from them, but that is the change that every team will experience, they can turn stronger or even vice versa.

On the other hand for Dortmund themselves, I honestly don't know what problems they are experiencing, but if we look at the statistics of their attacking performance, they are very blunt and cannot penetrate the defense of VfB, Dortmund only managed to take five shots and one of them was on target, while VfB managed to make 22 shots and 10 of them were on target. The statistics are much different between the two teams, one of the mistakes of Dortmund may be as you said, they are too focused in the transfer market in selling players so they do not have enough good ammunition to perform more optimally, with this then yes it seems to be true that Dortmund's priority goal is only big profits and they are not too concerned with the title.

Being responsible in gambling is must. Responsible in your financial conditions and watch at your economy before starting gambling. If you are responsibleness person in gambling. Then gamble is not for you because in gambling you must be possible for your money management. Without responsibility you will play reckless gambling. The type of gambling will damage your economical and financial condition after sometime you will as that you make losses more than profit. That's why at first responsible to your financial condition then start gambling.

Yes that's right, self-control is very important in gambling, there is absolutely no reason for them to forget or not apply this limit at all costs. It is because this is a way to make you not too bad by experiencing an increasingly large number of defeats. And also on the other hand, in addition to applying limits, we must also try to be a responsible gambler by only putting the amount you can be responsible for whatever the result is, with that I think you will not experience depression or other mental stress when the final result is losing.

Your main priority is to keep your economic life in order, and do not let you desperately put money for other needs on gambling in the hope of winning, we must first understand that there is absolutely no guarantee that you can win there, even usually the opposite, defeat is more common.

That's right, learning from mistakes is always recommended for anyone who has experienced or has just experienced something bitter in their life no matter what the impact is. I think it's quite easy to change it for the better if they can already realize about the mistakes they've made in the past, everything will get better as long as they can really and have serious intentions to change. Regret is definitely there but it is natural and what is not allowed is when you are too dissolved in regret because it will not change anything unless they take action to prevent such things from happening again in the future.

One of the better actions is like the suggestion you said, if the person suffered a huge loss last year due to excessive betting then yes it is better for them to take some precautions such as for example by reducing the amount of their budget and also following by reducing their gambling time, don't focus too much and just think that gambling is nothing more than an activity for entertainment, then with that I am sure you will not experience painful things like last year. I think building a career in gambling is just nonsense, there is no process that we can strive for because the final result always depends on luck.
By learning from mistakes, they can fix what needs to be fixed so that they don't make similar mistakes and can also be better in the future. By learning from the mistakes he makes or learning from other people's mistakes, he takes lessons that are useful for his own development in gambling so that he will always be careful when gambling. Indeed, everyone will have regrets about what has happened to him, but he will not find it difficult to get up because what has happened to him cannot be reversed and he can only learn from it.

Taking precautions this year can give them the opportunity to correct the mistakes they made last year, and that will definitely be useful for him because he sees that he can actually prevent it from happening. This will make him always alert in his actions, especially when using his money for gambling so that he will not be careless like in his previous experience. They can only prevent the same mistakes and others because they can be alert and careful. Building a career in gambling is indeed going to be very difficult so one is better off not trying it because it will definitely require more money, which does not guarantee they can get what they want.

Yes, it should be like that, meaning that they should be able to realize about their mistakes and make it a valuable lesson so that they don't fall into the same hole. And in my opinion it seems that if someone has experienced something like that in their gambling I think they have a great chance of being  able to reach awareness, because obviously to reach awareness of mistakes in gambling it must come out of themselves, and indirectly that is why it is very difficult for us to give advice to gambling addicts when they still have not experienced the worst thing in their gambling involvement.

The point is that if they can reach their consciousness then other preventive things I am sure they can do as a prevention, as I said above that indeed if the person is aware then yes some things that were previously difficult for them to do will be able to be applied to / as a way of prevention. Building  a career in gambling is not difficult but impossible and improbable, because clearly this is not a place to achieve success because from the concept of gambling alone there is nothing that provides any certainty for the end result, in fact it usually loses, right? honestly  in my opinion it's a silly mindset, and if there are people who are hard to keep doing it then go ahead, don't be surprised if something surprising happens to you.
2545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things you should always avoid while gambling ? on: November 12, 2023, 10:38:32 AM
It is very difficult if you have been quasi by emotions to be able to make reasonable considerations for better decisions, that's what usually in my opinion always happens to those who are addicted to gambling, they absolutely cannot limit their emotions and always act only for their own satisfaction, and there are almost no decisions or considerations that they make logically or reasonably when in such conditions. Therefore, in my opinion, that is why many people end up getting addicted unconsciously.
Yes, it is also important to control your emotions when gambling because if you cannot control them it will be difficult to be able to play responsibly, it is certain that playing will go beyond the limits and betting with emotional feelings will never end well in the end, that is why it is important to control your emotions and learn to understand that gambling is full of risks, so when you lose you have to be calmer.

Most of them consciously know the risks of gambling but they don't want to lose and feel like they are losers in the casino, that's not how they should think, they should think that this is a sign that they have to stop gambling because if they continue they will continue to experience losses continuously, that's why it is necessary to It's called a budget that by limiting it can prevent addiction. Without limiting your budget, you definitely won't be able to control your emotions when gambling.

Of course, and I say self-control or boundaries are not only important but very important and in my opinion it is mandatory for all gamblers to have, none other than because gambling runs randomly by relying on luck alone, so that is already a very strong reason why we must have self-control and boundaries every time we gamble. And also yes indeed it will be very useful to minimize all the possibilities that are not wanted, the fact is that everyone does not want to lose and all they want is victory, so there is no harm and it is the right alternative for us to apply limits there. Yes that's right, the main thing that gamblers should understand is the basic concept that exists in gambling, which is that everything is always random and only relies on luck without any guarantees, with that and if they understand everything then I think there is no reason for them to act out of control.

Well yes, that's right, it seems like that, most of them already know about the risks that can occur, but the problem is that they don't want to lose and are selfish to win, and also on the other hand they are too serious in seeing the opportunity, so with that it is very possible for them to act carelessly and out of their control. Basically, it is very difficult to achieve awareness if they are already very tempted by the odds of gambling.
2546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: November 12, 2023, 10:03:01 AM
Even though it is the best way they have to do and they realize but the problem is that it is quite difficult for people who are already in such conditions to get awareness in their mindset friends, they can barely consider which is better to do, the temptation of gambling is too great and they can't resist it. Basically it is true that if they cannot immediately realize then indirectly the activity will only waste their time and money, even though on the other hand they are very difficult to be able to get that money from their hard work but unfortunately they don't think about it at all, still if they have money especially when they have just been paid from their main job then surely they will immediately bet like that. I think the strongest reason why they can think of gambling at work is because yes as I said earlier that they are too serious and ambitious in seeing the opportunities that exist in gambling, so when they have time even if only a little then they will try their luck like gambling at work.
They should be aware that getting a job that can provide them with income is difficult because they have to be able to compete with other prospective employees to get a position in their job. Even though their income is not very large, at least they don't need to worry about their income because they can get it every month. So they shouldn't take risks by gambling at work because it could be known by many people and people's views on gambling are negative so it will have an impact on their work. Actually, they can refuse it, but the problem is whether they want to refuse to gamble while they work or continue to gamble while they work at the risk of being fired from their jobs if they disturb other co-workers. Companies also don't want to accept employees who do other things besides working because the company pays the employees so the employees must be able to work optimally. Even though the temptation to gamble is very big, they must be able to resist it because it is not the right thing to gamble and they should not do it.

Yes that's right, one of the realizations that should arise is like you said that finding a job is very difficult so therefore they should be able to think and consider that gambling activities can make them eventually lose their jobs if their employers don't like what they do. Honestly in my opinion even though for example there is a lot of advice they get from other people including some of their coworkers in my opinion it cannot close the possibility for them to stop gambling, I think it really depends on the level of gambling involvement of that person, if they are already quite addicted or even addicted to a high level then I think some of the advice will be useless because as we know people who are already addicted are very difficult to advise, they have their own mindset and beliefs that cannot be contested. Of course, companies always want to have employees who can work professionally and with a high level of discipline, so with that alone we can see how much risk you can lose your job if only the gambling activity is found out, so it's better to just look safe, anyway there is still plenty of time for you to gamble, you can at home or anywhere as long as it doesn't interfere with your main activities.

Yes, it is indeed wrong and it is not recommended for anyone when they are doing other activities and then think and decide to gamble too, losing focus is certain because that is the main thing that will definitely happen, and another impact is of course from a mental and psychological point of view they will be disturbed when the final result does not match what they want. Yes that's right, some of his coworkers also I think it will not rule out the possibility that they will definitely reprimand their friends who are gambling, and for the problem of whether they will stop or not in my opinion it depends on the person, as we know that indeed if people have entered the addiction phase they will not want to hear some advice from others. And what is feared is that, if their superiors know either through reports from other people or see themselves from those who are gambling then obviously it will definitely be a big problem in the middle of a job that should be professional and disciplined, maybe they will be scored or even terminated from work, that's the bad impact if you can't put something in its portion.
Mentally and psychologically they will definitely be disturbed if they are still gambling at the office because the results they receive will definitely make them act emotionally. If his co-workers couldn't accept it, it would become a commotion among them. There is a possibility that those who continue to gamble in their offices already have a gambling addiction but they don't want to admit it because they feel they are still fine. Gradually, what he does in the office that is not in accordance with office regulations will definitely be known by many people, including his superiors. And if that is the case, it will be difficult for him to maintain his position in the office because there is a possibility that he will be dismissed from his job because he has violated existing regulations. If they are dismissed, it means they will lose their job and income and they will also have difficulty surviving, especially if they are still gambling after being dismissed from office.

Yes, that is the main problem and impact, from a mental and psychological point of view, it will definitely be disturbed, maybe everyone will also feel the same way when the final result does not match expectations, especially if their goal is to earn income. And obviously the impact of mental and psychological disruption will be carried over to their work activities and will be very disturbing, and also yes it is true, maybe with their emotional state it does not rule out the possibility that maybe unexpected things can happen such as for example fussing with one of the other coworkers because of a small problem maybe, it could be. Demotion may occur as one of the punishments from their superiors, and the most feared is if they are terminated from their jobs, well that is dangerous and they will lose their main job and have difficulty making ends meet. Therefore, come on if there is one who gambles at work, please be wiser in managing your time, there is no benefit from this activity, it's okay if you want to gamble but you have to be able to place the right time, that's all.

An early goal and 2 late goals, I can't express the result of this match in words. This is an unexpected result for Tottenham Hotspur. I'm sure they are confident that they will get 3 points and will continue to accompany Manchester City at the top of the standings. But Sarabia and Lemina thwarted all their expectations.
Injuries are one of the worst incidents that can happen to any team in EPL especially when this particular club is fully competitive for significant positions. Wolves claimed a 2-1 victory against Tottenham Hotspur at the Molineux stadium today. Angelos Postecoglou and his players are shocked, they couldn't believe with their eyes they're climbing down from the top position. Tottenham have suffered back to back loss in EPL this season, due to the absence of their key players, it will take a very long time before they will be able to recover from this trembling form.
The victory that was already in sight had to be lost after Wolves could surprise them with 2 goals they created in stoppage time.
I think everyone will also be surprised by what happened in this match and it was the second defeat for Tottenham. They lost concentration in the final minutes which Wolves were able to capitalize on. That's why in a match players must not lose their concentration, even if there are only a few minutes left, or even just seconds to end the match, because if that happens it will have a bad impact on them.

Al Nassr will travel to Al Wahda headquarters in the SPL continued week 13. Despite being a guest team, it does not make them lose their favorite status in this mtch. They have a burden now because they have to keep sticking tight to Al Hilal, who in their week 13 match they managed to get full points by beating Al Taawon.
Al Wahda are not a club I would count out, but even so, there is no reason for Al Nassr to underestimate them.
The odds are stacked in their favor, so they need to make the most of this opportunity. For me, a win is something they have to get, because a draw will feel like a defeat.

Is this the end for Girona or will they comeback again? 1-1 at half.
Been switching between the premier league and the La Liga, I was surprised to see Girona losing by a goal earlier, but I knew that they had it in them not to drop points and be able to get the equaliser before the half time. Girona did what I expected of them, they scored before the half time, and I sure will go ahead to win this game still get all three points and continue on top of the table until next week. Real Madrid against Valencia is a must win game for them because they cannot afford to allow the points between them and Girona to be too much.
Yes, they managed to bring home 3 points from this match. They sealed the win after scoring their second goal in the second half, in the 65th minute.
It was interesting to see this mtch, because in the actual game Rayo Vallecano also put up a pretty fierce resistance. But Girona did not stand stil, they also gave their best game. If we look at the statstics of the match, they created a lot of space and chances, but they were equally good at breaking the atacks of both Rayo and Girona. Girona are in a very good situation so they can turn things around and secure the 3 points.

Group F is indeed the hell group in the Champions League this season and the competition between these 4 teams will continue in the remaining two matches. I really appreciate Dortmund and Milan because these two teams had lost their opportunities before but now they are able to rise to improve their position in Group F standings. Apart from that, I think PSG and Newcastle have lost control of what they had previously produced so they have to fight again to can advance to the next round. The next match for these 4 teams will still be very tough and maybe we all cannot predict which teams will qualify for the next round considering that everyone still has the same chance.
With only 3 points separating the top and bottom of the table, it will be a race that will continue until all the group stage matches are played. It is honestly very difficult to predict who will be able to qualify from this group F. The reason is that almost all clubs have the ability to be able to turn things around in the remaining 2 matches.
So it is appropriate if this group is said to be a group of hell. Other groups already have their representatives, although they are still looking for one more position because in some groups there is still competition between 2 clubs or even 3 clubs.
Who do you think will qualify?

With full power of 25% of Manchester United's share ownership, Sir Jim Ratcliffe plans to sell three Manchester United players, namely Martial, Antony and Sancho.
I can't disagree with Jim Ratcliffe's plans, if I can add, I will suggest him to sell Mount and Onana before their market cap decline to much. Selling these five players will make Manchester United to have a good amount of money to buy top players from other league or Championship.
For me personally, I'm actually very confused when it comes to choosing which players should be sold by Manchester United, because most of them don't show something very expected this season. If there is an option to sell all of them, maybe that's what I would do if I became them. Lol
Maybe Onana would be my first list to sell, and actually there are at least 5 players who shouldn't be in this team. Not to demean those players, but when we see players can't improve, why keep them?
One thing I want to emphasize, they have to regenerate so that it becomes a long-term project for them.
2552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 11, 2023, 03:01:20 PM
Cagliari found their best performance after beating Frosinone. And they also managed to beat Genoa last week. Maybe they have indeed improved. But still the quality of their game is not equal to the quality that Juventus has. So I think victory will be on Juventus' side in today's match. Maybe the best result Cagliari can achieve in this match is just a draw. But I prefer to bet on Juventus.
Cagliari performance looks to improve but they against a mediocre team, very different with Juventus because in the last few matches they have played against big teams, also this season so far Juventus performance has been really good. It would be very surprising if Juventus could not win in that match, especially they will also be playing at home and based on head to head records Juventus is ahead compared to Cagliari. So same with you, I also think Juventus can win in that match.
Yes I agree with you, although Cagliari are improving but it's also inseparable from the opponents they face so that makes them able to achieve something good. But this time they will face Juventus, they are one of the giants in Serie A. Not only that, Juventus are also in a very good state now, they won victory after victory and now they are in second place in the standings. With such a striking difference, it would be very disappointing if Juventus had to lose in a match that could be said to be easy like this.

I don't know what Nice was thinking, they had the opportunity to maintain top position with a difference of 3 points but instead only got 1 point after only drawing against Montpellier without any goals. Nice started to experience a deadlock and that's why every time they win by 1 goal it won't be enough to make them safe forever. They should have started improving since the previous few matches to increase the number of goal productivity and they don't seem to be able to do that for sure. Now it is clear that PSG has the opportunity to overtake Nice at the top of the standings and they can do that in today's match against Reims.
My concern for them occurred in this match, yes because previously I was worried about their attack line which was not so productive, and what we saw in this match proved that they did not have a predator who could create goals very well. They weren't without chances in this match, in fact they had several, but again they weren't good at finishing. They are strong in defense, but when they can't create goals then they can't win.
They need to improve on this, because sooner or later, the opposition will know their weaknesses.
2554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 11, 2023, 11:20:31 AM
Bayern Munich has odds @1.07 this odds obviously will not be profitable for the bettors but their current opponent is only Heidenheim which is promotion team and they were still struggling want to survive at Bundesliga 1 and so far Heidenheim has been lose 6 times and Heidenheim has been several times to lose with big scores from Augsburg and Leverkusen so this is easy match for Bayer Munich

Bayern Munich this season has scores 38 goals in Bundesliga and this proven they are as the team with the most goal and Bayern Munich also has strong defense because from 10 matches they only conceded 7 goals and their striker Harry Kane currently was on fire because he was scores 8 goals in the last 3 matches which is this is fantastic records and for this match i think Bayern Munich will be able to win with 3 goals margin or more and this option has better odds than if we pick Bayern Munich win
in this match it is clear that if Bayern Munich's performance in the Bundesliga is not play game, their chances of winninh are clearly visible when compared to the promoted Heidenheim team, especially since the match will be held at the Allianz Arena, of course Bayern Munich will not give any team the opportunity to steal point from it Bayern Munich is trying to regain its position in the Bundesliga which is currently occupied by Leverkusen so I thinks Bayern Munich will try not to lose full points in this match and this should be easy matchs for Bayern Munich.

In my opinion this is a golden opportunity for Bayern Munich to get full points, if we look at the statistics it is clear that the difference in the performance of these two teams is very far, Heidenheim is only a promotion team that does not have any consistency in the competition so that in the previous few matches defeats have always dominated them, and on the other hand it is clear that their opponents are not ordinary clubs but Bayern Munich who as we know they are not only strong but as defending Bundesliga champions.

On the other hand now Bayern Munich's point difference with Leverkusen is very thin, only two points different, and with that means it is certain that Tuchel will maximize this opportunity to get full points and shift Leverkusen's position at the top of the standings. On the other hand, in my opinion, this is not a difficult match for Bayern Munich, I don't need to predict how the final result will be, because it is clear that Bayern Munich are always favored even when against strong teams, they can dominate the game and win full points at the end of the match. But yes, even though this looks like an easy match for them, basically any result can happen, and I just hope Tuchel will remain careful in the match by always showing their sharp performance.

Lmao, this won’t do shit. Do you think those who gamble excessively don’t know or during their session don’t think about the stress they went through just to get the money they’re using to gamble? They clearly do and would still gamble just to satisfy their urge.

If you had said something about them reducing their bankroll I would have agreed with it but the idea of placing a money not on the front of their screen to remind them that they are beginning to cross the line I don’t think it will work.

I agree with your assumption, although there may be a lot of advice that is good enough to make them become responsible gamblers but I don't think it will fully work, in my opinion there are two types of gamblers, and the advice will only apply to those who are still not too far involved in gambling then such advice can be useful for them, but the problem is that on the other hand for gamblers who have entered the addiction phase the advice is very difficult to apply or do. As you said, those who are already addicted are not ignorant about what the best thing to do is, but on the other hand they have a very high curiosity about some of the opportunities that exist in gambling, which ultimately makes them overdo it, whether it's in terms of putting a budget or putting a lot of time into gambling, the point is that they come with the wrong mindset and think that gambling is a place to make money.

Satisfaction in terms of achieving results is always their priority, when on the other hand casinos will not be able to provide all of that because of course gambling is basically nothing more than a place of pleasure, but they have misunderstood all that. People who are addicted always want to win more, so of course they often carry a larger budget.
2556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most you have ever lost in one session? on: November 11, 2023, 10:40:49 AM
I lost relatively more money in 2021. I probably lost the most money in my betting career in 2021 but I learned and understood a lot from losing money during that time. I think sometimes you can win even if you lose. Here are some common mistakes I made when gambling or betting in 2021 that I realized too late. If I hadn't lost the maximum amount of money in 2021, I might not have discovered my common mistakes yet. Now when it comes to gambling or betting I make these common mistakes very less which makes now gambling career or gambling career a bit brighter. I think every gambler comes to a time when he loses the maximum amount of money.
As long as you can learn from the mistakes you made previously, you can still change your gambling habits for the better. You don't need to feel disappointed, meaning it has happened and we can't change it anymore, but we can try to correct the mistake by learning from the mistake so that we can avoid the same mistake. If you have lost a large amount of money in the previous year, you should start reducing your gambling activities so that you can have money that you can use for other things. It will be better for you because you don't spend the money gambling and you can also manage your gambling activities well. And it's best not to build a career in gambling because it won't be easy for ordinary people like us. We can only enjoy gambling as entertainment.

That's right, learning from mistakes is always recommended for anyone who has experienced or has just experienced something bitter in their life no matter what the impact is. I think it's quite easy to change it for the better if they can already realize about the mistakes they've made in the past, everything will get better as long as they can really and have serious intentions to change. Regret is definitely there but it is natural and what is not allowed is when you are too dissolved in regret because it will not change anything unless they take action to prevent such things from happening again in the future.

One of the better actions is like the suggestion you said, if the person suffered a huge loss last year due to excessive betting then yes it is better for them to take some precautions such as for example by reducing the amount of their budget and also following by reducing their gambling time, don't focus too much and just think that gambling is nothing more than an activity for entertainment, then with that I am sure you will not experience painful things like last year. I think building a career in gambling is just nonsense, there is no process that we can strive for because the final result always depends on luck.

Avoid being emotional. I guess that's the number one thing. If you are emotional, you will be carried away by joy, greed, despair, etc. If you are winning and you're very emotional, you could end up losing everything. You think you're lucky and would continue to play even after winning big already. Or if you lost, you could be angry and you would chase your loss and try to recover it. This emotion is equally damaging. You would go home with a bigger loss.
You say this as if it's actually to stop or control your emotions. Human emotions are also one of the major reason people actually gamble too because so many people just gamble to experience that feeling of winning even if the money they won is as low as 1$, they just get joy when they are gambling. For me what one should do to limit himself from gambling alot should be covering his gambling activities with so many activity that will take his time.

I'm referring to an emotional state in which gamblers are already taken over by their ecstasy, frustration, annoyance, etc. To have emotions is normal because we're human beings. We're emotional, but this doesn't mean that we don't have reason. Reason always prevails over emotion. It cannot be the other way around. I'm referring to the state in which emotions have already taken the better of a gambler and reason is just shut down.

Yes that's right, everyone does have emotions in themselves and their minds, and about whether those emotions will have a good or even bad impact it depends on how they can place or manage the emotions they have, it is clear that if they are depressed, frustrated because the final result does not match their expectations then it is clearly very difficult to be able to hold these emotions, and usually they have no limits or cannot apply limits when they are in such hot conditions, and also yes usually they will do things that are out of control, none other than that because of the encouragement of excessive emotions that refer to satisfaction.

It is very difficult if you have been quasi by emotions to be able to make reasonable considerations for better decisions, that's what usually in my opinion always happens to those who are addicted to gambling, they absolutely cannot limit their emotions and always act only for their own satisfaction, and there are almost no decisions or considerations that they make logically or reasonably when in such conditions. Therefore, in my opinion, that is why many people end up getting addicted unconsciously.

Gambling is entertainment only for those who can always limit their involvement and in the sense of not overdoing it, but unfortunately it is always difficult or that means that such a mindset is always difficult to be applied by them to their own minds, none other than because they are too serious in seeing the opportunities that exist in gambling, even though on the other hand as we know the opportunities that exist there are very small and after all the percentage of defeat is always higher than victory, therefore it is absolutely not recommended for anyone to make money from gambling.

Especially if you gamble while doing other activities such as work for example, it is very clear that gambling will greatly interfere with your activities, yes maybe you are trying your luck there, but that does not mean you have to gamble at work too friends. We must really be able to position everything according to what it should be, like you said. Yes it's better to just hold it, anyway you can still gamble when you get home from work freely in your own home. So you have to really consider before deciding something because obviously there will be new problems later, especially if your boss knows about it. Your job is your main income so you should think about not interfering with your work at all, because it's ridiculous if you lose your job because of gambling.
They should start changing their mindset to make gambling an entertainment because after all, they will not be able to afford to lose all their money in gambling. Those who are too serious about gambling as a way to make money should start to open their minds that what they are doing will only waste all their money, especially for those who often experience defeat. They should not gamble in places where they are not supposed to, such as in the office, so it will not cause problems for them because they have to focus on what they are doing at that time.

Even though it is the best way they have to do and they realize but the problem is that it is quite difficult for people who are already in such conditions to get awareness in their mindset friends, they can barely consider which is better to do, the temptation of gambling is too great and they can't resist it. Basically it is true that if they cannot immediately realize then indirectly the activity will only waste their time and money, even though on the other hand they are very difficult to be able to get that money from their hard work but unfortunately they don't think about it at all, still if they have money especially when they have just been paid from their main job then surely they will immediately bet like that. I think the strongest reason why they can think of gambling at work is because yes as I said earlier that they are too serious and ambitious in seeing the opportunities that exist in gambling, so when they have time even if only a little then they will try their luck like gambling at work.

It is a mistake if they gamble while doing other activities, let alone gambling at the office. Colleagues may see them gambling and admonish them to stop immediately, but because we have the upper hand and win or lose, we will say for a moment we will stop gambling. But what happens is that we don't immediately stop gambling but instead continue gambling. That will definitely make our friends feel annoyed because they feel they have warned us but we didn't pay attention. And if they report it to our supervisor, we will definitely get into trouble so that we can lose the job that can provide us with income.

Yes, it is indeed wrong and it is not recommended for anyone when they are doing other activities and then think and decide to gamble too, losing focus is certain because that is the main thing that will definitely happen, and another impact is of course from a mental and psychological point of view they will be disturbed when the final result does not match what they want. Yes that's right, some of his coworkers also I think it will not rule out the possibility that they will definitely reprimand their friends who are gambling, and for the problem of whether they will stop or not in my opinion it depends on the person, as we know that indeed if people have entered the addiction phase they will not want to hear some advice from others. And what is feared is that, if their superiors know either through reports from other people or see themselves from those who are gambling then obviously it will definitely be a big problem in the middle of a job that should be professional and disciplined, maybe they will be scored or even terminated from work, that's the bad impact if you can't put something in its portion.

The competition is getting more and more interesting in Serie A, as the big clubs are starting to show that they've come back from their slump.
Yes, at least the four teams currently in the top four still have a chance because Inter Milan or Juventus could experience bad things in the middle of the season and AC Milan and Napoli are starting to experience good development, but Inter Milan certainly won't let go of what they have achieved, and maintaining performance is the key to staying on top.

Inter Milan this week will face Frosinone, a fairly well-promoted team competing in Serie A and currently occupying 11th position, but I'm not sure Frosinone will be able to hold Inter Milan to at least get 1 point, because Inter Milan is quite stable, defeats don't have a lasting impact to them because the next match was successful in getting a win, especially since this was a home match for Inter Milan, which has quite a good record in home matches.
Of all the clubs you've mentioned, maybe I'd just like to see AS Roma there too, but they're in 7th place right now. They're still struggling to compete with the other clubs in Serie A. Every time they look like they're going to get up there's always a problem. They also can't maintain consistency very well, from match to match they definitely show different performances.
Jose Mourinho has a big job, and with two seasons under his belt, he should have found the right formula. But that didn't happen.

Let alone talking about Erik Ten Hag's dismissal, I haven't heard any rumors until now. Their 3rd Champions League defeat should have made the management open their voices about Erik Ten Hag's future at the club, but as we can see they have been silent until now. I don't know what relationship they have with Erik Ten Hag and it's possible they have more than what's written in the cons. Or it could be that they are moving in silence, by which I mean they are starting to approach other coaches but in a quiet way.
This is very likely to happen, considering that management does not want to get pressure from fans if their plans are known in advance. On the other hand, maybe Ten Hag has a special agreement with United regarding his dismissal, this can only be done when Ten Hag loses by a predetermined amount. Everything makes sense, including if the Red Devils management fires Ten Hag in the middle of the season, then they will have to pay a certain amount of compensation. So maybe these considerations made the management and club officials reluctant to end the employment contract with Ten Hag.

What is most unfortunate is when Ten Hag does not change his approach with players, which makes the club only pay their salaries without being able to get a contribution like in the case of Sancho. For me, that is detrimental to the club, because after all, an attitude like that has absolutely no benefits for the team.
There will be losses felt by the club either by keeping ETH or by firing it. If they fire it then there will be a financial loss there, and when they keep it it is something very risky. We are talking about something very bad now, if they keep ETH on the pretext of not wanting to lose financially, then they have to take the risk that they will decline further, it's a difficult choice but they have to choose. There is no guarantee that by bringing in a new coach they will improve, but at least there is new hope.
