Madrid do not have a very strong squad for this level of play. Psg are more motivated to win, and they have a stronger squad than Madrid.They may be able to win the home game, but in the end, PSG will go to the next round.
Why do you think PSG has more motivation to win? Don't tell me it is because they have Messi? Although PSG has Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe in their attacking line, doesn't mean they will automatically win against Real Madrid. To win the match needs solid playing, all lines will have a contribution to lead the team winning or losing in the match. Even, in my opinion, the midfield line to have a more crucial role in this match. Which team thas has a better midfield and is more solid in playing? The answer is Real Madrid. So, don't judge PSG is stronger because they have more superstars, in reality they are difficult to play a solid team. For me, considering their current performance, Real Madrid is better than PSG. All the lines in Real Madrid performed quite well lately, they played as a team. While PSG, although they have many superstars, each superstar plays too individually and focuses on showing their own performance. So, I am sure Real Madrid beats PSG and qualified for the next round. 

You are still talking about the same Real Madrid who lost against Elche CF and Getafe CF in recent times, right? And I am not even talking about the number of red cards they have got in recent matches.  Cheesy

Meanwhile, I actually can't remember when the last time PSG lost a match, to be honest.  Cool

And here you are saying that Real Madrid is performing quite well recently and better than PSG. It's true that PSG is not performing at their peak but they are certainly performing better than Real Madrid right now.

Funny how Colombia lost on home ground to Peru! I certainly like Colombia better, but Peru are out of the relegation zone for now... Colombia only have three games left to go to the World Cup too, one of which is against unbeaten Argentina, so they can't lose any more points!
It's football, it happens sometimes. The statistics show that Peru only once hit the goal of Colombia and this blow ended in a goal. Last year in the America's Cup, Peru also defeated Colombia away, but then the game was more even. But Peru's last games are more difficult than Colombia's, they have to play with Ecuador and Uruguay, I think they can lose points in both matches.

I actually believe that it was a case of Columbia getting tilted and frustrated being unable to score. The funny thing is they had 30 shots, and two of them were on target, Accuracy stonks lol Cheesy.

Anyway, Columbia really got unlucky in my opinion because they were really the better team in that match for me. Now they have made things difficult for themselves as they cannot drop any points at all.

I think it will be difficult for Real Madrid to qualify for the next round of the Champions League. Despite their vast experience in the Champions League, Madrid do not have a very strong squad for this level of play. Psg are more motivated to win, and they have a stronger squad than Madrid.They may be able to win the home game, but in the end, PSG will go to the next round.
No doubt they have not big names in their team currently but still it's not easy match for PSG because with big names they are also having some troubles to beat teams and Real Madrid is also in very good shape, and they can give some serious shock to them for having another big setback for their dream of having this title into their wallet.

We still have many days, but things are heating up very quickly about this match and both teams are doing their best for win I believe if Real Madrid manage to have some good performance in away game then surely they can win and quality for next round they have no pressure for La Liga title as they are leading, and their opponents are struggling very badly for having some better results and going near to them for challenge but right now it's not going good for them as well.

It is actually very hard for me to predict which team is going to win because on paper PSG looks mighty strong but when we compare the results I think we can say that the results are pretty mediocre considering their squad.

We can certainly say that there are some problems in the PSG squad. But obviously not too much big of a problem. I sure know that PSG are motivated.

If we talk about Real Madrid having not much tension about the league title then PSG should have almost no pressure about the league title because they are leading by much more points than Real Madrid. I have to say that on paper PSG looks really good but I am really not sure about the match.

first of all, I will say this is the time to buy some of the major coins but speaking of meme coins, I will also say that even though they might seem to be the most hit by the downturn of the market, If I were to invest in Meme coin, Shiba Inu is the best option and I would even buy some now. This is an effect on the whole market and not particular to some projects and Shiba can make it through.

Just my thought though.
Saying now is a very good time to buy makes sense but being on a coin like this is tantamount to slow suicide I guess.
coins like this are still not suitable for long-term hodling and are only suitable for hype and momentum utilization.
indeed there is nothing wrong with buying coins like this now but are we just going to hope for hype and pumps? I personally prefer to be in something certain and indeed a decent enough coin to invest than to be in a dangerous path like this

People said Dogecoin, shiba inu. But I called them Elon's shitcoin.  Cheesy

These shitcoins are not suitable to hold for both the long-term and short term. Do you know both of these meme shitcoin haven't any fundamental background??
It just got hype for Elon cunt without having any fundamental support. meme coins that haven't any real-life use, virtual-life use, or fundamental background are pure shitcoins, no one knows when it will go crash with your funds.

So, long-term/short-term, whatevr, avoid influenced shit, invest your money to Bitcoin and forget it like you didn't invest anything and come again here 5 years later.

I've traded on hotbit alot of times and sincerely, it's a shitty exchange if am asked, one is that there is no liquidity on the exchange, it's one of worst exchange to trade altcoins, alot of fake trades and fake orders by bot.
Not to say that digifinex is nice but I think digifinex is better when compare to hotbit, I can only trade on hotbit exchange if the coin am trading is not listed anywhere else, or if other exchanges trading the coin are worster than hotbit.

Hotbit is an old exchange, I used it to liquidate some staked tokens. Personally, I don't refer anyone to use Hotbit nor digifinex, both of them are functional but no one knows when it will go sleep.

You could use such types of low-rated exchanges for short terms to sell your Bounties or native tokens, But not use those as your main exchange to do online trade.
Better you could go throw Bitfinex, Binance, Bittrex, Coinbase to do trade.

here you will get top rated exchanges with their daily volume chart: https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/
2728  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin is valuable? on: January 28, 2022, 08:04:11 PM
When I read the title, I thought you were asking us why it is valuable but I see that you are rather telling us why it is valuable. I don't know where you get your example from, but the only thing you are right about is the 21 million limit. It is as simple as that it is the best digital system to store and transfer value, especially in large quantities, decentralized, autonomous and resistant to censorship.
To be honest, I also got the same feeling when OP phrased his title as I was expecting it to be a question, but it turned out that it was some valuable information instead.

But like you mentioned, the reason on why BTC is considered to be valuable is due to its inflationary value and limited supply on the market. Having only a 21 million in supply means that its price is bound my inflation, and supply-demand. Considering that BTC is used as a form of currency that deletes the use of a third-party in handling our transactions, people can safely transact on the BTC network money from one person to another, without worrying too much on your identity.

I just attempt to write "Why Bitcoin is valuable?" but after reading the OP I was just deceived... Cheesy
Yes, I agreed that Bitcoin deletes the use of a third party, but still, it has some weaknesses that's why we have to rely on paper money till now.
You know Bitcoin is not a sovereign currency that's why it's usable between a short circle not worldwide, and chargeback is another big factor to use bitcoin in real life.

I think the real value of Bitcoin insists on its decentralization nature, people can hold their funds anonymously that's why they feel interested to move into Bitcoin. And most of them are invested in Bitcoin hoping to get rewards from Bitcoin.

It's beautiful and romantic, but also smart and interesting in general! I hope I will live to see the moment when you fix this investment at some level and we will all see the result of the "experiment" with pleasure. I also similarly invested about $300 in 2018 when my only son was born. I hope he, too, will appreciate my initiative years later and rejoice at the "initial capital" that I am preparing for him! Wish you luck!
The investment for the other child was a special one.I had invested of 400$ for  my brother daughter in 2017.The price had raised some little value . So I  had withdrew every pump with some dollars. I had used the profit for myy brother daughter. After 2020, the price had raised a lot. Even now I  had earned huge amount of profit.Till now I  had not withdrew the funds.
This is good if this is true. But its very hard to believe to this kind of success story especially if the user posting it don't provide proof and story seems too good to be true. You are telling me that you didn't even sell until considering how high the price grow already since 2017? I know you indicate few dollars for some taking profit but a normal investors should take profit during peak since you already bought in the bottom.

The story is too good to be true unless you provide proof for the wallet address that you are holding the funds since there's a date in blockchain records.

Yes, It is hard to believe unless he lost his Private key,  Cheesy

Sometimes lazy can get rewarded,  Wink
one of my lazy friends had some fund-rich bitcoin addresses in different exchanges and software wallets. He did the faucet and got a very small reward at that time, approx 2014 or 2015.
he was too lazy to sell those funds cause he thought those are very small amounts. But recently he figured out his claimed bitcoin turned into a valuable asset now.
recently he called a party and told us to be lazy to sell your bitcoin,  Cheesy

It's not any surprising news that Government wants to regulate their citizen's finance. In fact, they would ban the use of Bitcoin if they could not bring their people under regulation.
You know, China initially tried to regulate Bitcoin but was unable to do so and eventually banned it. They have banned both Bitcoin and Mining. I don't know how successful they are, and how they keep their people away from cryptocurrency.
Maybe the Biden administration will make the right decision, also their own products Coinbase, Bittrex cannot be used without full KYC, and KYC is now as usual matter.

2732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2021/2022 on: January 26, 2022, 06:31:15 PM
That time was really hard for Watford and they are in serious danger of being relegated. Watford seems to approach Roy Hodgson to be their new manager. Though Roy Hodgson retired after last season he is coming back to take the responsibility of being the manager of Watford. Maybe he will be able to to keep them out of the relegation zone.

Details: https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2022/jan/25/watford-roy-hodgson-new-manager

I guess he’s a good choice if he chooses to stay beyond this season in case they do get relegated.  They’ll be needing a good enough manager to bring them up back to the EPL as soon as possible.  But Watford has him only until the end of the season so they’ll be lost again right after relegation.

It was Newcastle that chose well.  They got Eddie Howe as a safe choice.  A decent enough manager who could take the club mid table next season if they stay up and a great manager in the Championship if they go down.

I think Newcastle is really planning ahead for the next season because you know, they are also active in the transfer market.
Seems, they are planning to bring a successful result in the next season, And with the planning that they are going ahead, they should easily be a mid-table team the next season if not further up than that.

But what looks to seem to be in trouble if Roy Hodgson does not choose to stay for the next season. It is good for them now that he has their back but if it's not for the long term then the next season as you said they will be lost again, I think.
2733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: January 26, 2022, 06:23:57 PM
this is an era where it is already difficult to unite many star players in one team, so they are more likely to carry out individual skills to a less than optimal finish.

Yes, the problem at Manchester United does seem to be how to fit all these individuals together to become a great team. If you have the 11 best players in the world and put them together, chances are you won't make the best team in the world. The problem at Man U is how to make sure they create a solid, cohesive unit, and that there are no weaknesses as a team. Individual weaknesses are less of a concern, as they can be covered by other players' strengths.

I think right now Manchester United and PSG have the same problems.
They both seem to have some of the best players football has ever produced in their team, players who can make incredible and mesmerizing plays which even leaves the haters speechless, players who can do almost anything that can be done with football, and yet the results don't look so mesmerizing.

I think ok the problem is they have got the players that they wanted but now they actually don't know how to make the best use of them.

And Manchester United really should not be so far behind, with the players that they have in their team they should be winning almost everything that there is to be won.
2734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: January 26, 2022, 06:12:47 PM
Lots of good matches tomorrow!

Ecuador vs Brazil
Paraguay vs Uruguay
Chile vs Argentina

The chances of winning any of the matches are very high! It will probably be hot after a break of almost two months! Wink
The other group with USA, Canada and Mexico is not as interesting, perhaps only the Costa Rica vs Panama match will be unpredictable!

I think in these three matches, I say Brazil wins against Ecuador. Uruguay wins against Paraguay.

But the third one, Argentina VS Chile, is a really interesting one.
They go way back. Argentina has lost against Chile in real big stages. These teams have formed quite a rivalry between them and I think this should be a high-scoring match.
Argentina should be prepared for them this time. I will back Argentina to win this match. And for that to happen, Messi needs to be on the scoresheet.
2735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 25, 2022, 09:16:36 AM
When Bayern Munich can win big then at least there will always be Lewandowski's name as a goalscorer, but yesterday's 4-1 win against Hertha Berlin in fact Lewandowski's name was not there as a goalscorer. I had a feeling maybe it would be something a little bit funny too but yeah that's not a problem, as long as they get the full points and they stay big and stay strong there.
Although Bayern Munich win with big score against Hertha Berlin not have Lewandoski on goalscore and I think give chance for Patrik Schick keep going to make candidate Bundesliga top scorer, right now Llewandoski have create  23 goal and Patrik Schick make 18 goal beside still has Haaland with 16 goals. I think third player have the same chance will be top scorer of Bundesliga in this season because all of them have top performance and their team keep consistent on top position standing, but next match looks amazing to know who will scoring again between Haaland and Lewandoski when games Bayern vs Dortmund.

Even if Lewandowski does not score, Bayern Munich has a lot of players who can score at it any given time of the match, right?

So even though Lewandowski did not score, I wouldn't stress about it.
Bayern Munich won by a big marin 4-1 with Lewandowski not scoring, imagine what would have happened if he scored  Cheesy lol.

Anyway, I think that Lewandowski is still going to be the top scorer of the league as he is the most prolific scorer of the whole League, to be honest.
2736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 25, 2022, 09:10:31 AM
To be honest, Juventus had some really great chances to do score in that match but they failed to do so. They had better possession of ball and also had a few shots but I am actually surprised to see that they didn't have even one shot on target.
They had a really good chance to take the spot of Atlanta but now they have to wait and see if Atalanta loses their next match.
For me, I didn't see that hunger in the strikers to score goals. But still, they have a good chance to be in the top four.
Juventus from the very beginning of the championship has been experiencing problems with the attack - the departure of Ronaldo, then the injuries of Dybala and Morata. But now the situation is returning to normal and Juventus often scores several goals, while at the beginning of the championship their performance was worse. The result against Milan is not as good as it could be, but not bad either. An away draw against a team in second place is a success for Juventus in the current state.

snip>
I think the Milan vs Juventus match was a buying and selling action shown by both teams and Juventus dominated a bit, and both took turns getting chances to score goals.
but the strong defense and discipline of both teams, made Dybala and Ibrahimovic unable to take advantage of opportunities to score goals.
and in my opinion the top position of the standings 5 and above is still in a situation of intense competition and it is still possible to change positions depending on their overall performance.

Yes, that's true and this League is really keeping the viewers interested.

Actually, from top to bottom the teams are not really far from each other in terms of points. And the top 6 positions are really open for the taking for anyone.

And I strongly believe that Juventus can make it to the top 4. But they have to play much better. Well at least better than they have played in the Milan vs Juventus match. And their strikers need to be able to score more goals.
2737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 25, 2022, 09:05:56 AM

Manuel Neuer is expected to extend his contract until 2025 at FC Bayern München. Bayern will keep Neuer until he begins to grow grey hairs! As much as I want Neuer to stay at Bayern, I think it's also important for the club to invest in its young prospects and develop them. After all, he's not getting any younger! Rather than sign new players, Bayern Munich is working on renewing contracts with key players in the first team.
Manuel Neuer is such a great goalkeeper, and I can understand if Bayern want to keep him till the end of his career, but I second your idea that the club should also start looking for younger options that would replace him when he finally retires, but I trust the Bayern board, they are pretty good in making wonderful decisions, so I'm sure sooner or later, they would buy a younger replacement for Manuel Neuer.

Actually, I still think that if it was not for all those injuries, Manuel Neuer would have become an actual legend of this game.
But saying these things will not bring the time back.

I think it's good thinking of Bayern Munich to extend Neuer's contract with them but at the same time, they should also be investing in young talents.
You know, make a good future plan. So when Neuer decides to hang up his boots, they don't have to search for replacements.

Listen, politics is always going to be a big problem in teams like India, Bangladesh, Pakistan.
And it's not going to be changing anytime soon. We have to accept that fact.
And most of the time it doesn't matter who plays better, there is certain favoritism going on in the team selectors' minds.
Agree with you here about this statement because we have no solid domestic setup which bring some natural talent and give better leadership lessons here mostly groups and personal likes and dislikes have more importance rather than merit and good policies handling Kohli issue is very poor from BCCI and now having some big troubles around them for having better replacement is another headache for them, so they need to do things in positive way currently just Rohit Sharma is capable for handling this all KL Rahul is failure in short term, so they need to set him for some time and then bring some better and long term policy for this all otherwise they are going to have bad time in next few months which can hurt them badly.

Right now the best way for BCCI to get out of this situation is to hand over Rohit Sharma the captaincy and maybe in that way India will perform better and these types of talks would be over.
And I do not understand what is up with these boards who seem to be absolutely unable to conduct with players properly.

And most of the time they're actually don't follow the code of conduct. Obviously, this generally happens because of the communication gap between the players and the board.

I also wouldn't like to see Christian Eriksen playing from now on anymore. Because he had a serious heart problem and this must be enough to make him alert. I wouldn't continue to play football professionally from now on if I were him. This is a big risk he is taking. But it looks like he still wants to sign at least for a short-term with Brentford now. It is his choice in the end but I really hope that he doesn't experience a similar incident again in the future.
If he believes in himself, it's okay.  It would be better if the team he transferred to had an emergency team on the side all the time for a heart rhythm disorder.  Eriksen's abilities are undoubtedly very good.  However, he has to run at an intense pace and keep his body performance high in the Premier League.  I hope he doesn't have a problem.  It will feel very good to have Eriksen back on the pitch.

As it is really good to see him playing football again, it is also a matter of concern for a lot of people. He surely needs to be monitored closely by the Doctors.
We have seen a lot of accidents happen in football pitches various times, so I am really not a big fan of his decision but if he thinks he can do this and if the doctors clear him then I think ok we are in for a treat. I also think he is going to do great on his return and hope he stays healthy.
