Newcastle is probably one of the worst team in the EPL now. So far played 11 matches, without winning any. They are presently at the Relegation zone, and they need to work on their squad. I think they will surely sign in some new players maybe in January. Their performance are terrible. However, they have a home match against Brentford today, and if they put in more effort, this might be their first winning. Although, Brentford is not a team Newcastle can beat easily, But they are at advantage because is their home match. Anyway, let's see how the game ends.
The only means of surviving relegation is for Newcastle management to strengthen their team come January transfer window, fortunately funding the club isn't a problem to them now and having Howe in charge as their manager, if the can buy four or five quality players in the transfer window, they stand a chance of escaping relegation provided that they play draw, win some matches and loss few matches before January this will enable the ckub to close the gaps between them and clubs above them on EPL table.

To me forex trading is complex to me maybe I didn't  give my time to it, when I was into forex trading some years  ago there was no good result for me I had to quit. I found crytocurrency trading  to be cool and easy for me. I feel doing well in forex trading one have to dedicate good time to understand it well on how it works.
I also traded forex before too, it's more inclined towards fundamentals any Red news FOMC, BOE, ECB news etc will always mar any trading strategy, thus forex traders has to get updated everytime before trading, I wasn't getting good profits rather losses, thereafter ported to crypto trading where I am having a good time trading with some small funds in order to learn every aspect of it, eg spot, margin trading not leverage trading and so far it has been a wonderful experience, though volatility in cryptocurrencies is far higher than forex crypto traders has to trade with caution.

I think the composition of the Manchester United squad is good now, it's just that perhaps the less than optimal utilization of the coach makes it difficult for Manchester United to be consistent. EPL competition in the future will certainly be more difficult so that in my view a team that does not have a good coach will easily fall, so far this has happened at least a little and even Liverpool who look good can still fall in their last match.

Composition is not that good in front of the goal keeper, it is the biggest problem for Manchester United. Midfielder and striker is good enough but teamwork is not working really well. Changing coach without having new better players (defenders) will be useless imo.
Your right they have some issues except for maguire who is most of the time solid lindelof is a terrible player plus we dont see luke shaw and bissaka involved much in the offense side plus fred in the middle is not the best choice in my opinion, man united team work is really terrible as you said a new coach and some players changes are needed if they want to still compete and not end their season quickly.
Well I agreed that there are some players in Man Utd first eleven that doesn't merit a starting shirt, players like Maguire who is always prone to mistake unfortunately is a regular starter, Fred had not been covering the back four well, Matic is neither a good option as a defensive midfielder, Shaw and Bissaka are equally not bad, but central defence and defensive midfield needed a complete overhauling, Ole should had do the needful by benching them probably this will trigger their form back, however if he retains the present lineup I don't think Man Utd will make top 4 this season, with matches against Chelsea and Arsenal ahead.

NFT is a very interesting phenomenon. Tokenisation will lead us to a brave new world in the nearest 5-10 years. Now we can just make some trials here and see how this works now. Price of these assets surprises me sometimes  Smiley
It really needs to be tried so that everyone can judge it in the future, but are you sure that it can still last for the next 5-10 years without thinking about anything else, because in the future there will be more new things in the future ? crypto space.
It's not compulsory for anyone to wait for to the next five to ten years to recoup any investment in NFTs it is presently in vogue and hyped thus do your own research, invest wisely and take profit, personally I have not really delve into NFTs gaming tokens in a bid to investing in it, however based on some reviews it really worth investing in it but it risk is very high, many investors wants to invest in projects that will earn them 10x ,20x, 100x but never bother in the risk involved just in a bid to become rich quickly however some of them ended up losing their investment.
2785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A positive evaluation of gambling. on: November 19, 2021, 06:02:53 AM
When I play gambling I always consider where is the higher chance to win and get a profit because i don't believe in luck I've never been to win a large amount because of luck. So I prefer with the skill base if I won it took time before I bet another game because if you make a decision if you are not mentally stable there's a chance that your urge to get a payback might get lose instead. This is the reason why we need to gamble responsibly.
I never subscribe to the idea of referring gambling as luck probably because I gambled on soccer betting where I selectively pick my sure games though the odds might be small however with parley I will definitely win some small bucks as an alternative source of income, while betting with the amount of money I can afford to lose, I never have a mindset of gambling with a very high stake in order to win big and become rich, knowing the consequence of losing will be very devastating to my emotion thus I keep off.

~ Now news are reaching me that the youth are getting detained and extorted by the police for having Binance app installed on their mobile phones.
They can't do that. If there's a solid proof, please share it here. AFAIK, it's only a banking ban that's imposed on crypto users. Possession of crypto is not like possession of an illegal drug that's why banks only freezes your account and ask for personal information. They are not even allowed to forfeit your balance.



I wonder what's the next step for Binane, Paxful, and other P2P platforms operating there. Having these planted agents will definitely decrease their user base.
Because of the ban imposed by CBN the daily transactions of Nigerians using P2P via binance had drop drastically infact thevnews article below said it all. But trust Nigerians they will always find a way out, crypto has come to stay I don't think there is any clamping down or banning from the government can stop crypto enthusiasts from using it, especially Nigerians whose teeming unemployed youths had fully embraced crypto trading as their main source.https://nairametrics.com/2021/11/15/nigerian-bitcoin-p2p-trading-weekly-volume-drop-for-by-43/ income.

My opinion for the traders is always that they should take the profit from the market and then leave at a site, but most of the people due to their greed losses their most of the money, I always suggest that whether your profit is small or great then it will give you more profit, as I had seen a lot of people doing mistake in following other strategies.
That is exactly what I does whenever there is unusual hype that resulted in the pump in the price of bitcoin, irrespective of whether the price is bullish or bearish, just like the present minor correction experienced by the price, I always ensured that my profits are locked with a trailing stop bearing in mind that the bullish or bearish runs wouldn't last forever, I was once greedy having refused to take profits appropriately which culminated to incurring losses, I learnt my lessons and mistake thus making me to become a better trader.

I think that the Watford vs Manchester United match could be a stay-or-go match for Ole Solskjaer. I'm even surprised now as he hasn't got sacked already. Anyway, he must benefit from his probably last chance by getting a very solid win here. Actually they can do this easily as long as they play focusedly. Watford is not a big obstacle for them. And they are even much more terrible now.
However Man United should be able to catch up with Arsenal's points for this week, Watford will still be part of the profit for Ole who can win.
But many rumors say Zidane is ready to start a deal but does the management still believe in Ole? it's still confusing, if Ole wins 2 matches, say so, then the management will definitely trust him more and if he loses, hopefully it can be a hope for change with Zidane.
Ole staying with Man Utd was is subject to allowing him to take some time atleast if he can win against Watford his pressure will be relive or eased a bit, however Man Utd has some crucial matches ahead with their bitter rivals Chelsea and Arsenal in weeks ahead, sacking him now might be counterproductive, thus I believe these matches will the final decider, if Man Utd loses those matches definitely he is going to be get sacked having been given enough time to turn around the poor run of the club, this will an opportunity for Zidane to take charge of the club.
2789  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is burning coins good on: November 17, 2021, 11:53:42 PM
burning coins is a good thing because by burning coins it will reduce the total supply of the coins while the demand remains
it will make the price rise due to limited supply
this is just a simple economic theory in sales
Burning of coin is really a good idea provided that the developers purpose of doing it is achieved probably to increase the price of that coin just like the periodically burning of BNB by it developers, however some other developers might announce the burning their coin just to hype invariably to decieve or trick investors whereas the said coin has not been well managed by their developers consequently after investing in it, there wouldn't be any impact made by such investment.
2790  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if $70k was Bitcoin ATH for the year? on: November 17, 2021, 05:47:29 PM
Will you be satisfied if 2021  ends with an ATH of $70k for Bitcoin. Will it make you more richer or it wouldn't add any value to your intial capital.
Will you regret you joined the trend late or  would you be glad you bought when the  market did a retracement? Or you are still staring at Bitcoin with some sentiment
More than satisfied but not rich at all since I always take profit, and used it for my daily needs but no regret at all on selling my holdings. There should be no regret if you’re late because there is always opportunity and you can always buy other options, Bitcoin can actually go beyond $70k before the year end, I’m confident about this.
Exactly once I took profit and whatever earned was able to cater for my daily needs I am very much fulfilled and satisfied, price reaching $70K is not an easy feat but was achieved this year and I believed correction of the price will follow suit thus creating another opportunity to buy dip and wait for the price to pump again, after all a new ATH was attained this year April profit was taken thereafter correction took place which provided opportunities of buying dip.
2791  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: November 17, 2021, 04:40:55 PM
It's a shame that teams like Italy and Portugal had to enter the play-off zone, both of whom were defending champions at the previous Euros. With this result, maybe only one of them gets a ticket to the World Cup or maybe neither. Because right now the dark horse teams are very likely to put up a strong fight too, I personally really doubt that because I was one of the people who bet for Italy and Portugal to win in yesterday's match.
I don't understand what all this fuss about Portugal playing play-off. Is it a new thing and I don't think it is official anymore. They are used to playing play-offs either the old or new Portugal, even in Europe cup they also use to qualify as a best looser. As a Big fan, I am not surprise about Portugal playing playoffs. Because at the end, they will qualify and start hailing the goat. it just happened that Portugal Coach was tactical clueless against Serbia. He started the game with a defensive approach. Just imagining with the like of C.Ronaldo, Bernado Silva, Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Jota, Joao Felix, Andre Silva and he just be packing the bus against Serbia.

Honestly, I was also kind of shocked that the Portugal coach took this approach against Serbia. because I don't think anyone gave any chance to Serbia winning that match and even I thought Serbia will lose and Portugal will be the winner very easily, but their coach was not like to defensive in his approach and the team suffers the consequences.
Portugal has a clear chance of qualifying for the world they will likely play any of unseeded countries like Turkey, Czech, North Macedonia, Poland, Ukraine and Austria, I believe non of the above mentioned countries could any pose a serious threat or challenge to their qualifying for the world cup come March 2022 when the final playoffs will take place, though it is going to be a tough match, however, had it been they didn't make it up playoff stage it would have an outright non participation in the world, for there is hope for their country.
2792  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what you worst experience on crypto. on: November 17, 2021, 01:59:49 PM
I think the only bad experience I had with crypto was when I was very greedy such that I didn't take profit after the price had moved toward my speculated price mark with some decent profits earned already, unfortunately  the price reversed and I ended up losing all the profit earned earlier and lost part of my portfolio it was a very sad experience, however I learnt my lesson and move on bearing in mind that more opportunities of such will come and utilize such opportunities but with diligence, patience and contentment of whatever profits earned.

Robertson is a doubt for the Arsenal game after receiving a knock yesterday. He was sent for a scan, the injury is not serious but could keep him out of the game anyway. Tsimikas was playing really well for Greece in the qualifiers so it won't be such a blow - especially because Mane and Henderson both seem ready for the game and will provide good protection to the backline.

Arsenal is in a good moment and that will work in Liverpool's favor. They will go into the game with attacking mentality and will be punished hard for it. Easy win for Liverpool.

I think arsenal should go in this match with an attacking mentality knowing that if not of key players for Liverpool are missing because of injuries. But they should keep their defensive line strong as Liverpool is a team of menace and they can capitalize on any mistakes.
Of course it is not going to be easy for Liverpool when they play Arsenal going by their form and unbeaten record they hope to keep, though Liverpool main squad had depleted as a result of injuries to some key player thus I agreed with you that Arsenal opportunity is to attack as soon as possible so as to create chances of scoring early goals just like when they defeated Leceister City, thereafter defend very well, although Liverpool will field Sallah and few other who are fit.
2794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: November 16, 2021, 05:02:23 PM
After the international break is over, the most anticipated match in the Premier League will be played between Liverpool and Arsenal. Arsenal have had a great series and have won consecutive wins. Liverpool, on the other hand, had their first defeat against West Ham in the season that started very well. It would be surprising if they took their second defeat in a row.
Arsenal has benefited because they only focus on the premier league only, different with Liverpool have another match like Champions league. On paper, Arsenal should be a win, they have good performance in the last 3 games + 1 on FA. but at Anfield, they have won in 2012 ago when still have Podolski and Cazorla, that looks impossible mission to get a win on a hell stadium with a fickle player (Aubameyang). but Arsenal still has the golden boy Smith Rowe with his magic foot, I am interested to watch this match than the poor club MU.

New records are broken daily thus issue of Arsenal winning at Anfield last was 2012 can change in their next match, after all they lost to West Ham in their last match, injuries concerns of some Liverpool players is a major setback for the home side at this time when playing an in-form and rejuvenated Arsenal side, when Arsenal plays well there's isn't any home advantage for their opponents, the chances of atleast getting a draw in Anfield is bright if they can be consistent with their present form and performance provided that M.Sallah is well marked.

I think FIFA should introduce an elimination preminary stage where countries with poor ranking  like San Marino, Faroe Islands, Liechtenstein, Malta, Kazakhstan etc will play each other and get eliminated while the better countries will qualify to play higher ranked countries thus prevent a scenario where a team will lose with a wide goal margins just like San Marino 0 -10 lose against England, France 8 Kazakhstan 0, as well as enabling some players to increase their international goal tallies scoring easy goals against weak opponents, there is a need for readjustment of the fixtures.
2796  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can BTC rise to 1 million US dollars? on: November 15, 2021, 06:22:32 PM
I think it's hard to predict Bitcoin going up to $1 million in the next few years. Even now, no one knows and predicts exactly how the prospect of bitcoin in the future will be at least 10 years into the future, even though the price is still up and down.
The price of bitcoin reaching $1 million in the next ten year is not possible, it price is absolutely unpredictable and considering many upcoming bans, clamping down of exchanges, 40% owners of bitcoin manipulations e.t.c these are unforseen fundamentals that could mar the price to reach the speculated price mark, though I am not disputing the fact that the price will be far above the present price, but $1 million price mark is too outrageous to me and probably there is the tendency to have another new innovation other than crypto that might divert hodlers and investors's attention.

From onset I always ensured that I will bear the consequences of the risk involved in any investing meme coin before investing in it, once a loss is incurred I move on though it is not easy to get over those losses, although getting over it out my mind will last just a week and wouldn't have the filling of trying to recover those losses quickly doing so would add up to more losses, however I can never invest in it with a big fund, just with a small fund  that I can afford to lose, however you just have to erase that memory from your mind and have a positive thinking and look forward to other numerous opportunities ahead.

Marcelo should just move over to Manchester United since he has a good    and great understand on the pitch with Cristiano Ronaldo,I don't know why I'm having the feeling Ole Gunner Solskjaer time will be up soon at Manchester United and Zidane will be in charge soon.
Marcelo and Zidane at united?

I mean, well, we can fantasize about certain things we would wish to happen to a club we love, but this fantasy is a little too much. I don't think Marcelo will come to Premier League. He used to be good, but he's old now and has been injury prone.

He's probably going back home to Brazil.

This kind of reminds me of how some United fan we so confident that they would sign Ramos at one point.

Hm... But thinking about the idea that Zidane could overtake management in United might not be that far-fetched if Solskjaear is to be sacked. Zidane is available I think and why not United? There is a lot of prestige involved, enough good players to form a world class squad and I think Zidane would even be the perfect fit.

Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo will give go ahead for the club to sign Zidane,the club currently in discussion with him or Rogers at the moment for the job,the premier league might not come easily but a chance to remain in the top four is vital.
Marcelo can adapt just so,some don't know,if a move is possible then he should.
Probably because you think that the duo of Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo who had played under Zidane while at Madrid would influence him to come to Man Utd, of course there isn't any need to convince him, he is a good manager and can decide on his own if his service is highly needed in the aftermath of sacking of Ole, Marcelo can't cope with the physicality of playing in EPL he is ageing and might not have a regular shirt in Man Utd if he decides to come, Luke Shaw had up his performance thus no space for Marcelo.

Spain achieved difficult, but deserved win, though, even draw wouldn;t be something bad for them. What a shot from Olmo and then Morata couldn't miss that that easy shot. Spain in Qatar already.
Portugal 1:2 Serbia. It's difficult to comment this game because I watched Spin vs Swededn. Portugal scored very ealry goal, but it didn't helped them. Serbia surprisingly won after late goal and they go to Qatar directly, Portugal will have to play in playoffs anb it will be difficult - only 3 teams will reach World Cup from it.
Spain vs Sweden game was very competitive and entertaining, Olmo powerful shot was too hot for Olsen to handle,  thus the swedish goalkeeper tried to parried off the ball over the bar unfortunately hit the bar and rebounced to Morata who scored with cool finish the introduction of Zlatan Ibrahimovic couldn't rescue sweden from losing the match, however the swedish stand a chance of qualifying for a place if they win their remaining matches, meanwhile a big for Portugal chances of world qualification after losing to Serbia at home.
