2601  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 25, 2023, 01:37:14 PM
Let's look at the bottom of the table, there are 3 clubs that have the same points, Mainz, Koln and Darmstadt who have 10 points each, ranked next is Union Berlin who has 13 points. It looks like the competition at the bottom is no less interesting, they will compete and shift each other until the end of the season.
Bremen and Bochum who have 16 points cannot be said to be safe, the article with the number of matches that still exist now it is very enough to catch them, especially if they lose a lot of points.
Focusing on Union Berlin, they are a club that has failed to perform well this season, after last season they could compete in the Bundesliga top 4 competition. The decline they experienced was so sharp that it put them in the current position, in a position that is very vulnerable to relegation.
That's quite interesting, besides having the same points, the bottom teams also have equal quality so they still have the same chance of getting out of the relegation zone.
What happened to Union Berlin this season was a bit of a surprise because they performed quite well last season but they have dropped significantly this season.

This season is still very long so all possibilities are still possible and I think up to now it is still difficult to predict which team will be relegated.
Yes, it makes the competition at the bottom very interesting because they will definitely race to do their best to stay in the Bundesliga next season. Given the number of matches is still quite a lot, so there is still great hope for the club in the bottom 3 positions to be able to improve their position and get out of the red zone. They will also be expecting the clubs above them at the moment to make a lot of mistakes so that they lose a lot of points and will benefit them.
But it is not an easy job for all those clubs, because it requires hard work and also luck to be able to make them better from one match to another. Their coaches will rack their brains on how they can get better at the game so that they can produce the desired results.

For this reason Ligue 1 is not very competitive for competition for the title because it is difficult for other teams to break PSG's dominance and there are only a few opportunities that other teams ultimately fail to maximize. PSG's ownership under Nasser Al-Khelaifi means they have a lot of money to recruit the number of players needed and I think it will be quite difficult for other teams to match the quality of players they have in competition in Ligue 1.
Last season Lens managed to get behind PSG with just one point difference, but this season Lens is actually a team that is quite struggling to get into the European zone, and PSG this season is competing with Nice and Monaco, but with a five-point lead PSG will be quite difficult being chased by Nice and Monaco, this fact shows that the competition in Ligue 1 is only which team will be PSG's competitor with PSG's chances of retaining the title remaining huge, because these teams will have difficulty maintaining their performance in certain periods.
If there are big investors who buy one of the Ligue 1 clubs then that will be the time when PSG's dominance can be broken because money plays a big role in turning an ordinary team into an elite team.
Other clubs struggle to at least maintain their form each season, whereas Paris Saint Germain can do just that. It's because of their financial capabilities that other clubs don't have. The players who are mainstays at other clubs have abilities unlike those of Paris Saint Germain. I don't mean to underestimate the players at all, but surely we agree that the difference in quality of each player will greatly affect the performance of the club itself. The stability of a club is always a decisive factor, because it will greatly affect the match strategy.
Paris Saint Germain is the only club that has everything it needs to navigate the Lga and that will make it easier for them to defend the title this season.

Al-Wehda's victory means they are now in 8th position in the standings and succeeded in shifting Al-Ettifaq's position. I think Al-Wehda is indeed capable of doing it because their opponent is Al-Riyadh who are currently at the bottom of the relegation table. Al-Wehda did not hesitate to win with a score of 3-1 in this match and at the same time Al-Riyadh's hopes of getting out of the relegation zone had to be temporarily postponed.

Apart from that, Al-Wehda is now increasingly threatening Al-Ittihad's position and if Al-Wehda wins again in the next match then the points tally for both will be the same as 28 points. But that is if Al-Ittihad loses against Al-Nassr and I think we all know that Al-Ittihad is not promising this season and this possibility will be very profitable for Al-Wehda.
Al Wehda managed to make their guests go home empty-handed and this result was positive for them because they could win the match again after the previous week they had to lose. This is a good result for Al Wehda, but it is a very bitter result for Al Riyadh as they have had another negative result in their last 4 mtches and must be in the relegation zone position now.
The competition at the bottom of the table is also increasingly interesting to watch, because those who are in that position now have a distance that is not too far away and it can change in just one match or two matches. They must fight in the midst of intense competition to keep their position in order to remain in the highest competition in Arabia.
2604  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: December 25, 2023, 12:53:54 PM
Yes, some may think that gambling is work is wrong while others may have a different point of view. I think as long as you can balance between the office work and gambling, and the office work is not compromised because of your gambling, then it may be on to gamble at work.
Yes, now everything is much simpler than before. Every person has a smartphone with Internet access. So what's the problem with spinning slots during your lunch break? Even and not only during vacation. )) But this kind of thing already looks like a gaming addiction. Everyone, of course, makes their own decision.

But why should your work colleagues know about this? There may be some very unpleasant rumors that will reach the authorities. Some companies have a very negative attitude towards such hobbies.

If this is a big deal with the company, this should not be done. Gambling during at work can be easily violated if the company doesn't have the internal control to prevent this from happening. I think they should implement such control effectively since some of their employees might be tempted in gambling. And they can't assume that there employees don't gamble since no one would say they gamble just to be hired for the job, but in reality, they are actually gambling. 

Although we can say that the control is on us employees, but a company has interest to protect, if their people make mistakes in doing their job due to lack of concentration, that will affect the company as a whole, so prevention is always better as the potential problem is already seen.

I think all companies will never allow their employees to do other activities during working hours, let alone being involved in gambling or what I mean by the  activity they do is gambling during working hours, and it is clear that that will cause quite significant problems. Firstly, they lose concentration  on their main job because their minds are diverted to gambling, and secondly, it is very possible that they are not in the mood to continue working when the results of their gambling disappoint them and make them annoyed. Basically, it is difficult to regulate people to follow the rules if it is just a theory, and one thing that companies  can do to minimize this from happening is to implement full supervision while work activities are in progress, or for example installing CCTV in various corners, of course. It can make gamblers not dare to do other activities during working hours, especially gambling.

As I said above, it is difficult to control other people for companies, especially employees who work and you have also said that companies cannot easily assume that all their employees do not gamble, but the possibility is always there. So I think all of this comes back to the strictness with which existing regulations are applied in the company.
2605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lack of proper knowledge on casino games increases chance of loss and reduce fun on: December 25, 2023, 12:21:32 PM
Understanding how games work is very important for every game, but there are some which are very evidently dependent on luck and not skill or expertise. Knowing how to navigate such games does not protect one from loss or give an advantage.

I use such games as a fun activity and not as a means of earning through gambling.

- Jay -

True, the first step should be to understand how the game works, because obviously if we are new people who do not know how to start the game or mean not understanding how to play on some games that you are new to then obviously things that can encourage losses are very likely to do, like there is one of my friends who has just gambled on the type of pure luck gambling, he did not understand all the control features in the game, so what happened was that he forgot to set or lower the multiplier in the game so that the money he deposited ran out in just a few minutes.

Of course ignorance and not understanding all the features or displays in the game will make you waste money in vain, and usually it makes you finish the session faster with disappointing results. I think this kind of thing can also make someone more aggressive to continue playing and re-depositing due to unstoppable frustration because of the mistakes he made that made the session run very short, but sometimes it also depends on how the person is dealing with gambling, if he comes only for entertainment then I think it is unlikely to feel significant frustration.
2606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should mentally unstable people be allowed to gamble? on: December 25, 2023, 12:02:42 PM
My question now is are there any moral, ethical or legal obligation to bar a person from gambling after physically observing that he is mentally unstable?
I have not seen this in a any terms of service of a casino or other gambling site like bookies. If it is not there, that means it is allowed. But some people will not feel comfortable and will not allow him to gamble. There are situations that people around a mentally unstable person will interact with him and no problem, but there are situations that you can not interact with with such a person.

Right, I think it goes back to the casinos themselves about whether they allow people like that or especially those who look alarming and a little suspicious to get involved in gambling or not, if there is absolutely no regulation then obviously like you said it means it is allowed. But sometimes even if there is no such regulation sometimes some officers are very likely to prohibit it and drive it out, although sometimes we can't judge a person in terms of his appearance but sometimes it doesn't hurt to be suspicious.

Because on the other hand I'm sure the officers' mind is on the comfort of all the patrons there, which is why I think it's possible that some officers will kick him out even though there is basically no rule against it because it's very likely that there will be chaos committed by that person if he really has a mental disorder and obviously it will disturb most of the patrons who are there.
2607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think that this is aperfect analogy of how gambling addiction starts? on: December 25, 2023, 11:42:13 AM
If they come with such an approach then obviously I think there is something to be suspicious of, or I mean I should suspect their goals, I am sure that they come  not for fun but only focus on winning, so instead of implementing some precautions but they are busy with finding many ways to get a win. If the involvement  is not too long then I think losing is not the end of the world, or it means that they will not mind the defeat because they still have a great passion for winning, and they will really feel the loss when the defeat really dominates.
If they only focus on winning, they should be prepared to be disappointed because they will see defeats coming more often than wins. Well, they may be able to see the wins coming, but the number is not greater than the losses that come, so they will still experience more and more losses. If they are more busy looking for ways to win, they will not be able to enjoy gambling as entertainment because they are obsessed with winning and it will become a bigger problem if they don't realize it soon. Besides that, their losses will increase the longer they gamble, so if they don't stop immediately, they could really run out of money.

The fact is that in gambling, especially those that rely purely on luck such as slot machines, for example, the more often you are involved in this type of gambling, it is clear that I will agree with your idea that the more losses you will experience, because after all it is very difficult to be able to make the number of wins more than the number of losses if we basically only rely on luck which always cannot be predicted when it comes, And that is why we must always have self-control and some limits when engaging in gambling, none other than because this activity is very involving mentally and psychologically which means that when your mental and psychological disorders due to not being able to accept defeat then obviously then emotions will play a role and finally you do some actions out of control one of which is by putting a larger amount and losing everything.

It is very difficult to deal with gambling as entertainment if they initially come with too much focus on winning, in the end some limits will be forgotten which of course falls further and further into a cycle of addiction that has no limits.
2608  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? on: December 25, 2023, 11:23:13 AM
Reading about gambling addiction I don't think it's a new topic, but fitting to be in here, I just want to ask: between casino gambling, in-house gambling, and one-on-one gambling with physical players available on the table, which among these is more likely to turn someone into a gambling addict if the person doesn't have self-control in all his gambling activities?
All type of gambling games can be addictive if we can not control our emotion, so it is depending on ourselves. A game can be addictive for some people but it is not for some other people. Simple example, friend of mine is so addicted to lottery game, he buy lottery tickets every day and he spends much money on it every day but this game is not addictive for me since I can feel the fun of the game. So maybe the best answer is when we can feel the fun of the game, it may lead us into addiction because there is higher chance for use to play it again and again.

Well true, basically everything called gambling or betting always holds the possibility of addiction and of course that's exactly what you said for the problem of whether you will be addicted or not to the type of gambling you do it all comes back to yourself about how you react to it, in my opinion usually those who often end up with addiction are those who are too overly hopeful and also who do not really understand the basic concept of randomness that exists in gambling, especially for answers in the final results.

Yes, excitement can make someone forget to go home, like the type of game that is encouraged by the opportunity to win, it will clearly end in addiction, sometimes in ordinary games it is often addicted like games that are popular but there is no risk and no chance of winning anything, there are also some of my friends who are addicted to the game but yes not in the type of game in the casino but only ordinary games that refer to excitement and without the risk of losing money or without any chance of getting money. Games like that alone can make someone addicted, let alone gambling which involves winning opportunities which are usually the main focus of the people involved.

In fact, this star player's ego problem occurred when Real Madrid built the first generation of Los Galacticos where they brought in many world class stars in the hope that they would become a very strong team. But in reality it's not like that. Lots of star players means there will be lots of egos for the coach to manage. And I see that PSG seems to be experiencing the same thing. I agree that there are no players as great as Mbappe there, but other star players will of course cause jealousy among the players.
The team's special treatment towards Mbappe which was too excessive of course made the other players not like this.
I think PSG is too eager to keep Mbappe so they will do everything they can and that is a big mistake, in a football team it is not just one player who is able to change the situation but there must be chemistry between players in all lines to be able to carry out a team performance the good one.

Real Madrid is different now, they are the best team in the world and they have never placed any top players beyond the size of their team so star players would prefer to play for Real Madrid because this team is more than anything.
Yes, Mbappe is getting too much treatment and it is causing problems not only for the player, but also for the club itself. I totally understand that when they want to keep a player, they will do everything they can, but what Paris Saint Germain have done this time is beyond the limit, and it makes the player become arrogant.
Mbape himself is actually now more able to control himself and that must be done. Because if he leaves Paris Saint Germain still carrying his attitude then it could be something bad for him too. For example, when he has a strict coach, it will endanger his own position because the coach may dare to make him only on the bench.

AS Roma still have the same problem every season, this season too they don't seem to have changed much from the previous season. Yes they are inconsistent and it is very difficult to create that consistency. It's not too bad, but it's not enough to bring them into the tight competition for the Scudetto title. To be in the top 4 alone seems like they will struggle with their current performance. Unless they can improve it in the second round later.
One of the problems they have is the defense that is still easy to be penetrated by opponents, and that makes it dificult for them to win every match. 8 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats is something that is not satisfactory.

Chelsea and Manchester united are still trying to out do themselves in terms of which team plays the worse. After Manchester united gotten beaten by a weak westham united, today Chelsea received theirs as they lost to wolves another team that's not in the best time of their season.
What Hurts most is that I bet on Chelsea to win. Seeing the recent results of wolves I think Chelsea were supposed to win them even if they aren't doing so well themselves. Do you all think that Chelsea can still redeem their season.
Lol. this season my biggest mistake was betting on Chelsea and Manchester United. Several times I bet on them and the result is already known, which is losing. I think that was my biggest gamble, because I repeatedly believed that they would bring me victory. Lol
Just losing, I can still accept it, because we can't demand to always win. But what hurts is that when I don't bet them, they can actually win.
Manchester United and Chelsea still rotate in the same problem every season, making it difficult to break into the competition at the top. Manchester United last season was in the top 4, but we see this season, they are very worried about the Champions League.
2612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: December 24, 2023, 04:06:31 PM
Following some media reports, Barcelona might consider parting ways with Xavi if they end the season without winning any trophies. In my opinion, Xavi should continue as Barca currently lacks quality players and also dealing with numerous injuries. Once the financial situation improves, they can invest in top players and strikers, and Barca will regain its strength.
Definitely Barcelona is facing challenges while simultaneously competing for various trophies this season,
Champions League,
La Liga,
Copa del Rey, and
Spanish Super Cup.
I think Barcelona's management is not wise if they break the cooperation with Xavi, because Barcelona's current performance is also due to their own actions in the past, which makes them unable to move freely, especially in the transfer market. Still lucky they have a coach like Xavi who can bring change when they slumped in the previous 2 seasons, and now they will kick this coach for that reason?
I understand that they want the title this season, but with the limitations they have, they should also be able to think more mature and not just blame the coach alone. Unless they give Xavi some perks and facilities, it still makes sense to me. Now the problem is that to recruit players they have to look for players who are on free transfers. I'm not a fan of Xavi here, but I see here they blame Xavi if they fail to bring trophies this season.

Even top teams with big finances are not always able to play at the highest level, recessions are a normal phenomenon and this is normal not only for the team but also for the players. Haaland showed excellent results in the previous season and set many records, do you think it’s so easy to exceed your achievements every year? Don't worry, Guardiola is a great coach and if he needs new players he will find them.
Coaching is not easy as we all think, we have different goals and also expects ourselves to become very competitive when dealing with challenges. Manchester City is an elite EPL club that's currently the best club in the world of football currently, not easy for the players and the coach to hook up City to these standards. Pep Guardiola knows what he's doing and allow him to whatever he pleases freely. He's experienced and have been in the football managerial business for years, he certainly know how to take down his opponents and win his targets.
True, coaching is not an easy job, because they have to think not only in terms of players, but also they have a responsibility for the future with the club itself. But it is also a risk if the coach is the first person to be blamed when the club he leads cannot play well, even though it may not be entirely their fault.
Many coaches fail at one club, but succeed with another. Management support will also be crucial for them, but management should not interfere in terms of player recruitment and strategy, because that will also be very influential. Many clubs fail because management interferes in the affairs of the coach and again the first person who will be blamed is certainly the coach himself.
2614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one did you use to gamble with more on: December 24, 2023, 12:48:25 PM
I guess I am not the only one who likes to play live games. For the times I have gambled, I prefer to play live games because they seem to be the best and more predictable games. With live games, you can place your bet based on what is going on, unlike staking before the match starts where you have to bet based on just their previous performance. And if you notice, the odds are usually adjusted based on current performance and live games… this tells how much easier it is to predict.

Yes that makes sense, because the final result will depend on how the situation is directly, basically it is true and I agree that by seeing or betting live then obviously we will be able to see what happens in the match, of course there is always something that cannot be predicted and for example you bet on a soccer match, if there is one of the opposing players injured for example then obviously from there you will get a bigger chance and a pretty pleasant sensation when the possibility of potential victory becomes greater.

I also prefer to bet live because there are many indications that I can get from something that happens during the match, and of course it will be taken into consideration to change the bets we place.
2615  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard about financing a gambler? on: December 24, 2023, 12:29:30 PM
It's vital to acknowledge the risks associated with gambling as a means of earning additional income. Relying on luck can be unpredictable, and it's wise to consider more stable sources of income like a regular job. Using one's capital is certainly a prudent approach to managing the potential risks involved. Exploring alternative avenues for additional income, such as investing or developing new skills, could also be worth considering.

I think there's absolutely no reason why someone would want to make gambling their main source of income, or even their main source of income. Because after all gambling only depends on your luck in every session you do, as you said and obviously then there is absolutely no way that can make them produce winnings just by relying on luck, I'm not saying that you won't win because obviously victory is definitely occasionally you can get, but the problem is if you make gambling your main place of income that means shouldn't you always be able to get a win? while on the other hand what if luck is far from you?

So of course I think it's more realistic in choosing something, use common sense to consider because after all gambling is only recommended for entertainment only, because the risks there are far greater than the chances of winning, and obviously it's true that it's better for them to find a job that is certain - certain, especially in terms of income. Starting an investment is a good suggestion if they have skills in that field or other things that they are certainly capable of doing.
2616  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think that this is aperfect analogy of how gambling addiction starts? on: December 24, 2023, 11:58:22 AM
Whoever it is before engaging in gambling should have prepared many precautions as you mentioned with self-control and some restrictions, but strangely there are still those who completely ignore some of these important points, whether they don't know it or what, honestly I don't know but what is certain in my opinion is that it happens because they are too focused on winning opportunities that make them come in a hurry and barely do research first about the dangers or risks of what is in gambling itself.

That's right, gamblers who are completely unaware of the risks involved in gambling will only continue to play excessively or aggressively for the sake of getting a big win, that's what always happens so of course it's not the victory they get but instead they suffer a number of losses consciously and unconsciously. In my opinion, it is not that easy for them to stop in the stage of involvement that can still be said to be too early, they still have great enthusiasm and some of the defeats they have experienced may not be too concerned, it is because of the great confidence in the hopes they have put on winning. On the other hand, it is certainly true that this is the kind of gambler that casinos want because they will easily spend their money on something uncertain.
It should be like that but they don't make the necessary preparations and instead gamble without any preparation. They ignore all the things that are needed in gambling so that when they are too focused on gambling, they don't see that they haven't been able to win at all. They only want to chase the win and ignore the losses they have suffered. They should be aware that winning from gambling is not as easy as they imagine and if they experience loss, they can think about immediately ending the gambling game. They could return to the casino another day after resting. This is to reduce the desire to recover previous losses because this will occur in gamblers so that they will want to return to gambling again.

If they come with such an approach then obviously I think there is something to be suspicious of, or I mean I should suspect their goals, I am sure that they come  not for fun but only focus on winning, so instead of implementing some precautions but they are busy with finding many ways to get a win. If the involvement  is not too long then I think losing is not the end of the world, or it means that they will not mind the defeat because they still have a great passion for winning, and they will really feel the loss when the defeat really dominates.

Those who are not aware of the risks posed by gambling will only continue gambling and not think that they have lost a lot of money in previous gambling games. They can remain enthusiastic about gambling, but they also have to see the fact that it is still difficult for them to win, so they need to regulate their gambling activities and not increase their gambling hours. That will only make them unable to control themselves because they desire to gamble longer to chase the win. Wise gamblers don't want to do that because they think it's not worth doing because it could lead to more losses that they might not realize. As most gamblers, we must be able to realize that gambling is only necessary in moderation, and there is no need to chase wins or recover losses because that will only cost more money.

As I said above and I think they will really realize or at least gain awareness when their financial condition is getting worse due to this activity, honestly on the other hand I think a situation like this is quite natural especially for beginners who have just come who certainly still have a high enthusiasm for a victory, especially if they always see other people who can get a victory, then obviously indirectly it increasingly brainwashes them to continue to get lost in the black hole of gambling, I think they will be able to really realize when they have experienced many problems that can certainly make them experience mental and psychological pressure.
2617  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You lose more when you over trade on: December 24, 2023, 11:28:43 AM
Actually it is your personal choice, whether you want to trade at any time and under any conditions. If the conditions are not possible in your opinion then don't do it and it's better to monitor. Only you can determine when is the right time to start trading. The more often you trade, the more often profits and losses will come, but as much as possible the profit percentage should be higher. Discipline in any trading strategy will help trade better.
Still, the best is you have your plan, and you are not trading based on your emotion or only when do you want. Trading is not easy especially if you already doing it for a living, you need to focus.
But before that, you need to identify first what kind of trading do you want, how much time you are willing to put in trading, or how much in everyday you will use in trading.

Of course, I think planning is already a must-have for all traders, as you said that trading is not easy, therefore with good planning then obviously I think they will not be confused as to when to determine the entry time and exit time. Emotions are always a major problem for every trader, many end up tragically because they don't have a plan and don't have good self-management so when you don't have those two things then obviously you will trade at will, they will be easily fooled by something that looks tempting and they will easily enter without doing some considerations because it is based on emotions especially when they have previously experienced losses.

I think more do not plan trading as your main income especially if you have not really explored or mean not have high flying hours in this field because obviously something bad will never be known when it comes, the name of trading must have profit and loss and I can't imagine when you really need money for needs but on the other hand the market is not in your favor or that means losses are dominating, we must understand that trading requires a high level of calm, and if the situation you are being pressed for money then I am sure you will not be able to focus when trading based on pressure from needs.

Now are days I see much or all this in house gamblers becoming addicted and acting weird over gambling results, and walking down into some betting shop, you will see most of those gamblers spending their whole day in the gambling shop, which made me have the above question. I know any form of gambling can produce gambling addicts, but among all, there is one that is most common, which is what I want to hear from others.
I think almost all types of gambling have gambling addicts. Among them, slot games have the highest number of gambling addicts. Slots are the game where people are most attracted and become most greedy.  Being more greedy and more attracted people become more addicted to playing slots.  Moreover, people do not get addicted to gambling too much with sports sites. This is because most people bet on sports as a form of entertainment.
I also believe that slot machines have the highest number of gambling addicts. There are various types of slot machines available in an online casino and real-life casinos, which shows the high demand for this game. Many gamblers find slot machines to be an exciting game because of the high multipliers it offers. Every time I visit a casino, I notice that slot machines are always occupied, and I rarely see any of them vacant, unlike other games.

It's true that this type of game is indeed the most popular lately, I'm sure not only in one country but maybe in several countries the popularity of slot gambling is very high, one of the things that makes many people involved in this gambling in my opinion is because this game is suitable for all circles, or that means there are no requirements such as skills when we gamble on sports betting, but here everyone can gamble if they really have money to bet.

Another thing is the ease of access and also the ease of understanding how to play from many games is also a reason for people to get involved, and not only that, games like this slot have a very big win promise, the casino has put the maximum win according to the amount of the gambler's multiplier when they play, so simply put, usually the reason gamblers get involved in this type of game is because there is a 1000x chance of winning multiples of the multipliers we put or what we more commonly call the maximum win, but I think that since the existence and popularity of this type of gambling in the public eye I have seen many people experiencing financial problems.

Real Madrid must have their own assessment of this player, even though his performance may not be so visible and worthy of being included in the Real Madrid squad. But he is still young, so he can further develop his abilities.
I was surprised by what you said about Real Madrid, because it doesn't make sense to me if they keep Jobe because of gratitude to Jude, in my opinion it is very unprofessional. It would be very strange for a club as big as Real Madrid to bow down to a player for his performance.
Real Madrid are a strict club, especially when it comes to players, so they are unlikely to be interested in players who they think have no potential.
Actually any young players are bad except if they able to show they're good e.g. Jude, Lamine Yamal, Gavi.

The reason why Real Madrid is interested with Jobe is, they think Jobe will become like Jude in the next few years. It may doesn't looks make sense to keep Jobe just for Jude, but we can't know about the contract, maybe Jude request to Real Madrid for doing that in the future.

The funny thing why Real Madrid need to keep Hazard for 4 years when he was flopped in Real Madrid. Cheesy
To me it sounds very strange when Real Madrid do it just because of their "estimates". And when you say maybe Jude said something on his contract, I think that sounds even more unusual, but it's possible because as you said we don't know the contract. But in my opinion, would Jude have thought of something like that for his contract at such a young age?

Hazard is a plyer who is always on the winners' podium despite not contributing to the team. Maybe he's too comfortable on the Real Madrid bench. But does he really not want to be better during that time? The article used to be a good plyer, but at Real Madrid he was unable to compete with other players.

I also want to see the match between the two teams but of course not in the first round I want to see this fight in the semifinals or even in the final, Liverpool may have more experience but now Leverkusen is in the best performance so it is worth waiting for in the final. Currently I haven't been able to see the match schedule for the European League and don't know who the opposite Bayer Leverkusen or Liverpool in the next match. Bayer Leverkusen is the only club that has a perfect victory in the group but Liverpool may have other considerations and matches are more important so they ignore a few matches. Curious who is better between clubs from Bundesliga and Premier League.

Maybe I can say that Leverkusen has performed very solidly this season. They have a very good defense therefore even though they don't have a world class striker they are able to look quite neat and get the win with their defense. Coincidentally, they were also the unbeaten team in the group stage, but if you want to compare with Liverpool, I don't think it's suitable because we know Liverpool have a different level, whether in the League or in the UEFA European League group stage.
You're right that they're at diferent levels, but with what Leverkusen can do at the moment I think they have a very good chance, even though they're still above Leverkusen at the moment.
I personally usualy forget their stats in the past, when they can perform well this season then that's what I can see. But maybe what will make the diference is in terms of mentality, when a club has a lot of experience of course in terms of mentality they will be better, this applies to any club, not just for the two clubs we are talking about.
Apart from all that, the meeting of the two clubs will be highly anticipated, especially if they meet in the final round later with a record of their appearance still consistent as it is now.
