Congratulations poker player I guess 2000 merits will cheer you up and definitely put a smile on your face .
That is surely a way to cheer someone up. Poker player has been one of the quality posters i know on the so achieving the milestone really proves well his postings have been appreciated. Congratulations to him and we are looking forward to see you get to 3000 merits @poker player

Before i started making a post or replies as a newbie, I explored the forum and I saw different usernames and ranks with so many earned merits and post counts, at first i was confused and very scared because I don't know when I will get a single merit not to talk about multiple merits of the legendary ranks.
That’s practically how everyone feels at first when they join the forum but as time goes on you begin to get used to things and understand what the forum expects from you. Earning your first merit is the most difficult merit to earn and also the most appreciated merit of all being a newbie you will dying to earn merit but as you get used to it it won’t be a big deal anymore. As a newbie when you first concentrate on learning it will make earning your first merit easier because it will elevate your posting skills there by increasing your chances of earning merits. Earning your first merits is the best feeling ever.

Yep. Al Shabab is only a middle-class team, they looks to get difficulty to play against Al Hilal. With the stats of the last 5 matches of Al Shabab, it is very unlikely to steal points from Al Hilal. So, I am optimistic that Al Hilal will get full points again, they will win the match. Sure, we can say that Al Hilal already wins the SPL for this season.
Even when Al Hilal plays against top teams they still end up winning the match and extending their lead even further and it is now like they are unstoppable in the league. It should be getting boring for them already as no team seems to be to the task to stop them, they have been so good this season that it is certain they will end up winning thee trophy. Can Al Shabab stop them from getting maximum points? I don’t think so, they have been inconsistent in their recent matches and need more than luck if they want to win Al Hilal but this is football where nothing is impossible so Al Hilal also needs to be at their best too if they don’t want to end up dropping points this time around.

He shouldn't have returned in the first place, but that was done all because Sir Alex Ferguson called him directly. Yeah, Ronaldo gave Manchester United winners against Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham United scoring Hat tricks against these clubs.
I also think Ronaldo shouldn’t have returned to Manchester United, it wasn’t his idea to return as well as he almost  joined Manchester City as Pep Guardiola was already pushing for Ronaldo to sign for him which he almost did but out of the respect Ronaldo has for Sir Alex Ferguson he had to join Manchester United instead and i think he would be regretting his decision to join Manchester United because of all the things he went through there. It would have been a different case if he joined Manchester City as he could have easily won the treble with Guardiola and scored far more goals than he did at United.

For a Legend who has nothing but respect for the club i think he was disrespected far too much by the coach, the fans and some players in the team, they thought he was the problem causing them downfall but where are they now? Barcelona wouldn’t have treated Messi that way if he was to return back. Ronaldo was easily the team’s highest goal scorer despite being one of the oldest in the team if not the oldest but he was the problem.

When you have a player like Ronaldo in your team you just need to make other players work for him and leave him to do what he does best which is scoring goals, you don’t expect a player in his late 30s to still give you what a young player would give you.

It's going to be a big celebration for Arsenal to win Manchester City but it's likely not, maybe it would have happen if it were in Emirate because of th home advantage but it's the same advantage that Arsenal are going to have in their home that Manchester City are going to use to win them in that match. I know football can happen but I'm just confidence in Manchester City to secure this point especially now that Liverpool has given them opportunity to after losing their second goal of the season.
You are right, any team that plays at home always have the advantage of winning the game especially when it’s a big team versus a big team. The strongest teams is always the home team, they have the advantage of of having the strongest support from their fans who lives just at their backyard. Both teams are good but Arsenal can be a strong challenger for Manchester City especially now that Manchester City are not as superior as they used to be and Arsenal seems to be doing well now and scoring more goals.

The title race is so tight and that is what i like about this season campaign, three teams fighting hard to win the title and big games like this decides what teams gets to edge over the other. I wouldn’t be so happy if Manchester City wins the league this season again, i am not a city hater but it’s getting boring seeing them winning the league over and over again that why we need a new winner this season.

At the end of the day I wouldn't be very surprised if Arsenal don't make it to the league title once again. Arteta is really doing his best though with the squad he has in his hands.  Smiley  I would really like to see him managing a team with a much stronger squad in the future.
They are doing their best, the coach is trying hard and the players are also giving it their best but things are very tight this season and unlike last season they had the best chance to win when they were almost 10 points up but they failed and now they up there challenging for the title again, which is really a difficult situation now that they are competing against two teams. I know they have added a few quality to their lineup and they now seem more like a team willing to win the trophy but i think it will be even more difficult than last season.

I think Arsenal needs to sign bigger players if they really want to become favorites to winning the league, they have quality players but they still lack a top quality striker and i think it’s what they need to sign next to balance up the team.

Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?
Of course everyone feels sad when his team loses a match even when you placed no bet then imagine how the person would feel when he placed a bet on them, he would definitely feel bad about it. I feel bad when my team loses a match even without betting on them so i will always feel bad when i bet on them to win and they end up losing.

I don’t even like yo bet on my team because i know my decision will be controversial and will definitely affect my bet so thats why i prefer not to include them in my bets. I always want my team to win but they are very inconsistent nowadays so that’s another reason i don’t include them in my bets.

There will be great players on the offensive line if Mbappe comes. No one can keep this team for long. Mbappe carries PSG alone in France. While there are many stars in Real Madrid, if we consider that they will add him, they will turn into a team that will be every team's nightmare offensively. I can say that I can't wait to watch Mbappe in the Real Madrid jersey.
Adding Mbappe to Real Madrid current squad is like a cheat, they will definitely become every team’s nightmare considering how clinical, dangerous and talented Mbappe is. I can’t stop imagining Mbappe alongside Vinicius and Rodrygo up front they will definitely be unstoppable and i also can’t wait to watch Mbappe in Real Madrid shirt. Definitely the perfect move for him let just hope he doesn’t end up like Hazard.

Quote
Market value doesn't matter here. It's a useless keymetric to determine player's value. The club determine it by themselves. The club never uses market value to determine how much price for their players.
That’s right, a lot of player are being sold higher than their market value or even lower depending on how they are performing and how important they are to the team so clubs never really determine a player price by their market value. Greenwood is overpriced for 50m but that doesn’t mean he should be sold based on his market value, his performance has elevated but i also still don’t think he is worth 50m.

Man city, Arsenal, Liverpool these 3 teams are doing a lot of work with the 1st position. Everyone's performance is always the same, so the points gap is not widening. Now both of them are going through a very tough time. Man City or Liverpool or Arsenal are going to be the champions. Many kinds of predictions are going on. but I am very excited about Man City. what do you think Can Man City be the champion?
Manchester City are not exceptional in my opinion, their performance is not as superior as it used to be so it is not certain if they are winning the trophy again this season and I myself wouldn’t want to see them win it again. It is going to be a tight call and we might wait till the final game of the season to get our winner.

As the season draws to an end the fixtures will get tougher as all teams will sit back up and fight for every point to avoid being relegated. This is the point where they all need to tighten their belts harder so they don’t end up losing the chance of winning the title, Arsenal particularly should be even more serious so they don’t repeat what happened last season.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: March 20, 2024, 04:00:47 PM
Liverpool were knocked out of the FA CUP two days ago, and were eliminated by Manchester United, who are only 6th in the Premier League and are distant from their good times

This makes me think that Liverpool are not as unbeatable as we thought
We've already commented here that the final would be Liverpool vs Leverkusen, and the English team's defeat could be a warning sign that the team could struggle in an important game. Perhaps Atalanta will be able to see what worked for Manchester and try to get a good result in a few days

In any case, I think I see Leverkusen as more likely to win the title than Liverpool right now, and you guys? Am I right or Liverpool didn't care so much about FA Cup?
Losing one match doesn’t justify that they can’t win the title, Manchester United have always been a rival and no matter how bad they are performing at the season they would always be a worthy opponent for Liverpool so I don’t think Liverpool showed any sign of underperforming in the match.

Liverpool are not unbeatable and even the smallest of team can beat them in a football game so that is football, everyone is predicting them to win their way to the final of the Europa League and probably win the trophy but it is not as easy as it seems just because they are in good form. Leverkusen and Liverpool final would be the most interesting final in the competition if they both make it to the final and it is uncertain who would win because they are both performing wonderfully well at the moment.

Liverpool cared for every trophy because their fans have been saying they are winning quadruple trophies this season so i think they gave it their best shot but wasn’t enough to beat Manchester United.
291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 20, 2024, 03:16:24 PM
It would be better if Xabi chose to continue coaching Leverkusen. Xabi has a contract until 2026. I'm sure the club management and players also like Xabi. They can build a more solid squad next season. But that is if the club board can provide enough spending money to get several players in the transfer market this season. Because it will be very difficult if you want to repeat the same achievement with the current squad.

But if Xabi wants to coach another team, I hope it's Liverpool. I think Xabi deserves to coach Liverpool. He could be Klopp's successor. Of course it will take a long time to build a solid squad but I am sure Xabi can do it.
In life when you are presented with an opportunity you need to utilize because opportunity they say comes but once. He has had a very successful season at Leverkusen and that doesn’t mean that he would continue having the same experience with the team in years to come because it is certain that bigger teams will come for some few players that play an important role in the team and when they eventually leave it would be difficult and would take time to adapt and replace them which would definitely have effect on the team’s performance. So i think he should join a bigger team now that he has the chance because if he doesn’t and fail to lead the team to success next season no big team would want his services anymore.

If you think Leverkusen can build a solid squad next season then you are mistaken, every player wants to play for a bigger team to achieve greatness and lift bigger trophies so I don’t think any good player at aa young age would sign for them just because they had a good season once instead they will lose quality players to bigger teams.


Managing a big Premier League team for long years is really an exhausting job that's for sure. You have a really big responsibility to carry that team to the top. He deserves to take a long break now after a management of nine years. I agree about Xabi Alonso as well. As far as I have heard Bayern Munich are already interested in giving him the job. I just wonder what his choice will be between Bayern Munich and Liverpool if he gets offers from both.
It’s really a huge responsibility to manage a premier league team like Liverpool but as a young and ambitious coach that is what you should prepare yourself for, i believe Xabi Alonso should be up to the task to manage a team like Liverpool or Bayern Munich. We don’t know what his decision would be but i still think other clubs would join the contest to try to win his signature, teams like Chelsea, Barcelona and Manchester United are linked to him.

Now-a-days many people are interested in trading. But it is harmful for everyone especially those who are trading without knowing it. They are losing all money despite knowing technical analysis. The main reason is psychological.
People need to understand that trading is not something they can just venture into unless if they are ready to lose their money. Even trading experts will not advise people to begin trading without knowing about it and even while having some knowledge about it that doesn’t guarantee 100 percent success rate, is their even a thing like 100% success rate in trading? I don’t think so, having knowledge will just simply minimize the risk and chances of losing money.

Trading should be first studied properly as a course because of it’s complexity and many terminologies that needs understanding and also understanding the the tips and guidance provided is also as necessary if a person wants to increase his chances of becoming a successful trader but most new traders would want to skip the learning process not knowing how risky it would become for them ahead, trading needs to be approached with utmost caution because people lose more money than they actually make profits.

Mbappe was the only one at PSG after Neymar and messi's departure. His departure is certainly a big red flag for PSG especially for the next season. If he leaves there will surely be someone to replace him but there is enough doubt among fans as to who will be his equal. We have seen that since he announced his departure from the club, the coach has been reluctant to give him a chance to play. But he proved once again that he is still the best, his hat-trick against Montpellier once again made his fans realize what kind of player he is.
It’s true they will suffer for a while when Mbappe leaves but they will eventually get over it like Madrid got over Ronaldo’s departure. They shouldn’t expect to have him forever especially when they couldn’t achieve so much together so obviously he would leave someday and when he does they will surely have a new replacement for him sooner or later.

Mbappe is an exceptional player and no matter how he is being treated when he come on the pitch he will always make a difference. PSG will surely suffer for at least a season or two before they would adapt to playing without Mbappe because the few matches he was kept on the bench he would still come in and deliver and that shows how good he is and how great he player he would become.

Overall, IMO, Klopp is better than Ten Haag, we really can't judge MU success in winning the match against Liverpool as Ten Haag overall success in the EPL. However, in Liverpool history, Klopp has given Liverpool the important title they have always wanted, the EPL Trophy. Meanwhile, Ten Haag still hasn't been able to prove the effectiveness of his strategy in the EPL so far. I'm not saying Ten Haag is very bad, but it's not right to compare him with Klopp, who has been at Liverpool for several seasons. And we can't blame Klopp for losing results against MU, even Liverpool losing their 1st position.
It’s not even a debate, Klopp already has a title to his name this season so losing a match to Ten Hag doesn’t justify that Ten Hag is a better coach than Klopp. Ten Hag has achieved nothing for Manchester United since his arrival and he is barely making it to the top 4, he even got eliminated in the Champions League this season and they are having a very inconsistent performance this season which proves how terrible of job he is doing at United.

Klopp have achieved alot for Liverpool so far and it would be difficult for the club to forget all he has done for them, i think they are lucky to have him and he will be missed when he leaves the club. He has won a trophy already this season and he is currently challenging for the premier league title and also one of the favorites to win the Europa League title if all things goes well till the end of the season so there is no way you can compare both managers and decide that the winner of the tie between them is the better coach. Their performance as a coach should be judged based on the success achieved throughout the whole season.

There are rumours such as Mason Greenwood is on the radar of Atletico Madrid and it is said that Manchester United have set an asking price of 50 million pounds (around 58 million euros) for him.  Smiley

This is quite a huge sum before anything else. His market value is only 7.5 million euros now. But valuing him this high might be to show that the Red Devils aren't very interested in selling him to another team now. Besides I have read that the team want him back in the squad after his loan contract with Getafe ends this summer. As he is cleaned from the charges against him as well this can be a second chance for him to improve his career. He is actually a quite skilled player.
Greenwood is linked to so many clubs and on the radar of a lot of clubs, i heard some weeks back that some big clubs are interested in him after he has displayed such a wonderful performance since his return to football. I felt so bad for him and i thought that was the end of his career but luckily for him he is able come back stronger. Manchester United didn’t give him much support during the time so i don’t think he would consider staying at United.

Manchester United want to cash out big from his sale because of his recent performance but i think 50 Million is a big price tag for him, a permanent move to a bigger team would actually benefit him, Atletico Madrid is not a bad team but i think they won’t be willing to pay up to United’s asking price.

I think Greenwood will also contribute if he returns to Manchester United. He found himself in Getafe. I'm sure it will benefit Atletico Madrid as well. The transfer fee is too high. I don't know if they will respond to this. Atletico Madrid is a very good team. They should be more careful this year to fill in the shortcomings.
He would contribute to Manchester United’s squad because they seem to be lacking a proper RWF and Greenwood seem to be the perfect option since him performance has improved alot but I doubt if he would be willing to play for Manchester United again after they didn’t show much support for him when he needed them. If i was to be in hi shoes i would also seek a move out.

Should this even be a discussion here? Don’t bring up topics that are not worthy of discussion just to increase your post count and activity, it is called spamming and it’s not allowed.

I know our country’s economy is bad that 200k seems to be a small money and is barely enough to cover our daily expenses but i think this is a personal question that everyone should answer by themselves because we have different lifestyle, different priorities and also the number of family members can have effect as well. I am not sure the context of marriage you are referring to, do you mean enough to cover marriage ceremony expenses or enough to sustain you and your wife after marriage?

I don’t think the amount will be enough to cover marriage ceremony expenses but i still depends on how large you want to celebrate it. I think 200k should be enough to sustain you and your wife after marriage but it would still depend on the kind of life you want to live but for an average lifestyle the amount should be enough to provide gor your family.

We have seen people who earn less and still get married so you just have to cut your coat according to your size.
297  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trying to get into a Signature campaign... on: March 19, 2024, 09:09:54 AM
Op, have you read the criterias on some signature campaign thread before? some ranks aren't allowed to join in on any signature campaign. I wonder why you are so bothered about campaigns right now, when you should be more concerned about how you could acquire good and sound knowledge of Bitcoin and the forum so you get to rank up. The reason you may not be participating in any signature campaign soon is because your focus is actually on the right thing but at the wrong time.
He doesn’t understand yet, i guess when he was introduced he was told that he can earn money by participating in signature campaigns. If campaigns allow new accounts to participate it would be too easy and there would be new accounts all over the forum applying for campaigns and spamming rate will definitely increase.

OP participating in signature campaigns nowadays requires a rank of Full Members and above so you will have to rank up before you can participate and it requires you to earn certain amounts of merits for different ranks so i think what you need to focus on learning first in order to have knowledge and understand how to grow in rank to have any chance of participating in campaigns in the future. Only few campaigns accept Jnr Member and Member rank and even though you will need to spend more time on the forum and earn a few merits to unlock these ranks.

My advice for you now is to focus on learning for now, growth will happen when you have learned so much.

Hello users, I was registered today and I don't seem to find my way around the forum because everything is confusing to me, I see a lot of boards for many countries, should I stick to my national board alone? this place is also like an organization right? And in every organization there are rules, do's and don't's guiding the organization right? I have a lot of questions and I don't want to stress everyone with my many questions hence the reason why I am asking for  links to useful threads. Thanks for your help.
That’s how it should be at first, a new user is supposed to find it difficult here, the whole forum layout and arrangement should be a new thing to you so it is supposed to take a little time to get familiar with it so don’t make a fuss out of it it’s quite normal and with time you will get used to the forum.

The forum is a discussion place where people share ideas about understanding bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and it is a place where one can easily get educated about bitcoin, it is not an organization or an office as you might see it but of course it surely has its own rules and regulations to help keep things in order. I can see some members sharing you some useful links already, you should check them out they would be really helpful.

I don’t know your purpose of being here but if you are new to cryptocurrency and want to learn about bitcoin learnmeabitcoin is a place you can start from as a newbie.
Also you can ask questions on https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/ or you can carryout search on this forum using https://ninjastic.space/search which i think is more effective than using the forum search tool.

Wow so people did such kind of things when they were young? I guess my childhood was boring, I didn’t have time to engage in any of these activities when i was younger, there was no way i could leave school early and after school i had no time to hang out with friends because i would be immediately taken home with no one to play with, it was mostly me and my video game so i had no exposure to such things when i was young.

I think the highest and riskiest thing i have done was to gamble with part of my school fees while trying to raise some money for my girlfriend back then, it was not actually my idea, i was talked into it by a friend who was already into gambling and ever since i have been gambling once in a while.

Talking about Champions League experience, I don’t think Bayern current squad have enough Champions League experienced players that will scare Arsenal, only Muller and Nuver were among the teams that were defeating Arsenal in the past, the rest of the players were all new and similar experience with Arsenal even though they have played in Champions League one or two seasons before now.
I don’t know what you are meant by Champions league experience but i just know they are far more experienced than Arsenal and that alone means alot. Having Neuer and Muller in their midst will be beneficial and that is something Arsenal will lack, having an experienced player among will help carry youngsters along.

Come to think of it, Bayern have players that have quite some experience in the champions league aside Neuer and muller, there is Kimmich, Alphonso Davies, Sane, Goretzka and Harry Kane who have had quite a good experience in the Champions League and compare to Arsenal’s squad I don’t think any of them are near in terms of experience.

Arsenal cannot be underrated because they have good players and good coach so I expect them to play well against Bayern.

Bayern in the Champions League as a rule never spared their opponents and dealt with them harshly without hesitation, but this season for Bayern is really quite average, both in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League. They look ok overall though, I don't know, it's like that tough core they've lost
In my opinion Bayern is not performing averagely just that they are performing not up to their usual standard and the fact that Leverkusen is beating them to the league makes people think they are performing avaragely, although they are quite inconsistent with their performance but I doubt if they will take the inconsistency to the champions league.
