New rumors say that Manchester City is interested in signing Toni Kroos from Real Madrid when his contract expires next season. It seems that Manchester City wants to feel like their midfield is filled with an experienced midfielder like Toni Kroos and this will make the depth of The Citizen's squad even more terrifying. We know that Toni Kroos has brilliant passing accuracy and it would be extraordinary if he was on the same field as KDB.

Manchester city will pay Toni Kroos a salary of 13 million per season and I don't think that's a bad offer. But as we know, Toni Kroos is likely to retire at Real Madrid along with Luka Modric and now we just have to wait to see whether he will change his mind or not after his contract ends.
Real Madrid will have no plans with the German international when he finally run out of his contract with them because he's aged and gave rendered good services and purposes for the club. It would be great to watch Luka Modric and Toni Kroos hanged their boots in Real Madrid jersey because it's an act of respect and becomes the club's legendary players. The change of plans have surprise everyone, though it might be consider a transfer rumour, Toni Kroos suddenly picks interests in continuing his career, this time he would push on rewriting a new story in completely new league. Choosing Manchester City is the best decision currently because they're the reigning champions and having one of the stellar performance in EPL.

Is he not too old for M City to sign? I mean before they also had a player who had an age below Tony Kroos 1 year, but they didn't extend his contract. If the main reason Manchester City signed this player is because of his experience, what's wrong with Gundogan?
I think they will bring in a new young player to fill the midfield which is now starting to falter with the departure of the main players. And I think young players will be more suitable for them to bring in, this is not a matter of experience but the future can also be obtained if they bring in young players.

Maybe it's too early to draw conclusions? Bayern is also not in first place in the Bundesliga and even City is not in first place in the Premier League. All three clubs are very close to the top and remain the bookmakers' favorites, so it is too early to talk about serious problems.
By the way, as I said, Mbappe scored two goals yesterday, showing that he is in excellent shape and his decline in performance at the club level is temporary.
Drawing conclusions about Monaco winning the Ligue One crown this current season is too early because one is not in the position to know the teams that would earn major trophies and the ones that would be relegated from competitive tournaments.  We might be in the position to enlists these teams but we might never know what's coming because football comes with shocking answers and expectations. The France league is tough, the exact same thing happening in England and Germany, witnessing power changing from the reigning champions, perhaps I've hope for some of these teams would bounce back to good shape and go for their targeted titles.
It's not yet week 10, and the current situation is still very changeable. Usually we will see the schemed position after the league finishes the half season, there we will start to see something that will then be used as a basis in predicting what the end of the season will be like. The situation at the beginning is not easy to predict, because almost all clubs are still looking for their form, and although there are clubs that quickly find their form it is not a guarantee that throughout the season they will stay in the same game, it can improve and what we see more is that clubs tend to decline.

AC Milan vs Juventus, is the biggest match of the week. Both clubs will be scrambling for victory, for Juventus it is important because it will cut their points gap with AC Milan who are at the top of the standings, while for AC Milan the victory will bring them to remain perched at the top of the standings by collecting 24 points. This is definitely not an easy match for AC Milan or Juventus. AC Milan are in a better situation, as they are on a winning streak with their 4 wins. While Juventus they have slipped up several times in the last 4 matches. AC Milan emerged as the favorites, but Juventus did not come to bring home a defeat.
This is a very tough match cause both teams are currently the best performing so far and are I the top 4 of the table, but I feel Acmilan has more advantage to win the game, cause Juventus would be without most of their players due to injury, recentlytheir captain Danilo just got injured in a match against Venezuela, and is in doubt to face Àcmilan asides that Acmilan are performing better than Juve and that's why they're currently at the top of the table.

 Moreover they'll be playing at home in front of their fans which gives them more advantage to win, also Acmilan have been dominant in their past 5 matches as well but i won't write off Juventus cause they may get a draw out of the match, among the last 5 games they've played they've got 2 draws so there's a possibility that the game could even in a draw.
Yes, the host status and playing at home is an advantage that AC Milan will indirectly get. They will get full support from supporters who we know that the role of supporters can provide better motivation for players and supporters are referred to as the 12th player in a club.
Yes you are right, a draw could happen in this match because their strengths are actually not much different but AC Milan is better so far. There is another factor to be discussed which is that luck plays an important role in a match to give a good or bad result to a club, and we might see that in this match.

Anyone who sees the meeting between these 2 clubs, I think most will place doubts on Chelsea. Not without reason, but with basic reasons seeing Chelsea's appearance at the start of this season. I will not close Chelsea's chances of winning, but indeed I doubt they can win this match. Arsenal are in good confidence in the English league after they beat Manchester City who are considered the strongest club. Although in the Champions League they had to lose to Lens, I don't think it changed the situation significantly. Arsenal's chances of winning are clearly above Chelsea, Chelsea's hope to win one of them hopes that Arsenal will perform badly in this match, but that is difficult to happen.
The London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal has been of a big interest to fans of both clubs over the years and this season's encounter isn't gonna be an exception.
Arsenal are currently on an impressive run as they're yet to lose a league game since the start of the season unlike their London rivals Chelsea who are currently sitting in the 11th position with just 11 points having already lost three matches this season. Chelsea however has convincingly won their last two League games and that I think gives the players of the team a belief that they can actually beat Arsenal next week Saturday. The game is slated to be played at Stamford Bridge the home of Chelsea and that makes it more interesting as Chelsea would want to be the first team to defeat Arsenal in the English Premier League this season.
Their 2 wins in the last 2 matches will indeed make their mentality better and that is a good capital. But we will definitely talk about their overall game and that makes us doubt especially the club that will be their opponent this time is Arsenal which we know they have an impressive appearance.
Despite all that I want a biting game from both clubs, Arsenal playing well as usual and Chelsea can serve Arsenal's game with a good game too. Open play is the game I want to see in this match, buying and selling attacks will make the match tension hotter.

Sporting Lisbon is where he started his career and it's only natural that he'd want to end it there too. But so far I haven't heard any rumors about him moving to that club, maybe in the future we'll start hearing rumors. But I think his performance now is still enough to last for a few more seasons, especially since he is a player who is a magnet for other European players so they come to this Arab League.
We'll see if there will be news relating to Ronaldo and Sporting, or if Ronaldo accepts the contract extension offered by Al Nassr.
Cristiano Ronaldo for a fact is very happy at Al Nassr at the moment as he's very focused in helping the club win not just the Saudi Pro League title but as well as the Asian Champions League title which they're also participating. The news of wether he'll remain at Al Nassr beyond the season is something I don't find appealing as the player hasn't made public any statement suggesting that he wants to leave his current Saudi club. If a truth, he started his professional football career at Sporting Lisbon but it's not a must that he must return to Sporting Lisbon before he retires.
Yes he is very happy to be here and he gets a lot of warm welcome as a form of respect from the supporters in particular, yes although on several occasions he also received criticism for his slightly declining performance. But CRonaldo is not the name if he becomes discouraged by criticism, he is a plyer who will answer the criticism that comes to him with a good performance in the next match. Algorithms that will always happen, and that's normal in football.
Yes it is not a must for a player who starts his career at one club and he has to end his career there, but it comes from his desire, and I don't know if it will really happen or not.

Of course, the Chelsea vs Arsenal London derby match is a match that football fans are eagerly waiting for because it will be a very interesting match. And Chelsea, who is currently experiencing moderate performance, will face a tough test from Arsenal, who is currently in high performance.
It seems that Chelsea's resurgence is set to face a rigorous test. Arsenal isn't a weak team this season, especially after their victory against Man City; they are now considered contenders for a top-three finish in the EPL. Personally, I remain somewhat skeptical of Chelsea's comeback – can they truly conquer Arsenal? I'm not entirely convinced.

Arsenal appears to be in solid form while Chelsea is still in the recovery phase. Without underestimating Chelsea, I believe Arsenal might have a relatively easier time prevailing over Chelsea in the 9th-week match. However, it would be quite surprising if Chelsea manages to put up a significant challenge against Arsenal. Regardless of the outcome, any result will boost Chelsea's confidence in their comeback efforts.

Yes, maybe his comfort while at Al Nassr will be a consideration for him to accept the contract extension offered, I think he has no problems there, either with the club owner, coach or teammates, the relationship looks harmonious and he looks comfortable there. with assumptions like that, the opportunity for Ronaldo to accept a contract extension is great. There is no other reason I think, because I also haven't heard of any other clubs approaching him, especially with his current performance that can still be relied on to contribute to Al Nassr's game.
Of course Al Nassr will not want to lose Ronaldo in 2025 because Al Nassr will try hard to persuade Ronaldo to stay with them until he decides to retire with the Al Nassr team. But I have also read about Ronaldo where he said that before retiring he wanted to defend his first team, namely Sporting Lisbon.

Ronaldo has become the icon of Saudi Arabian league football and I am sure all parties will persuade him to continue there until 2027. However, Ronaldo is old and he may decide that it is best for him to return to Sporting Lisbon before announcing his retirement.

Well, this season he really made a lot of big contributions to Al Nassr, especially in bringing Al Nassr to consecutive wins which made Al Nassr's ranking even better in the standings table. In fact, if they are able to maintain their winning trend in the next match, it is possible that Al Nassr will return to the top of the standings. However, in the previous match Al Nassr failed to secure full points after being held to a draw by Abha.
Sporting Lisbon is where he started his career and it's only natural that he'd want to end it there too. But so far I haven't heard any rumors about him moving to that club, maybe in the future we'll start hearing rumors. But I think his performance now is still enough to last for a few more seasons, especially since he is a player who is a magnet for other European players so they come to this Arab League.

When I saw Girona, I was reminded of Sevilla in the previous 2 seasons who could also compete with Real Madrid. But the question that will always be asked when there is a club like them in the top flight is, will they be able to be consistent until the end of the season or not? Sevilla went through the same thing and still ended up losing second place at the end of the season, as Barcelona improved under Xavi H. We will always assume this until the end of the season and see if they are consistent or not.
I personally hope they can be consistent, so that I can see there are clubs that can provide tough competition not only the 3 clubs that I usually see.
It would be very good and interesting if there was other team than Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid, which could consistently get a lots of points. Yeah, I personally also hope that Girona can continue to be consistent and in the end can get a UCL ticket, at least that's a big target for them. Previously last season we saw Real Sociedad succeeded in securing UCL tickets, it is not impossible that Girona can do it although I'm also not too sure, but is still a possibility for them if their mainstay players not injuries or anything else.
Yes they have the opportunity to be able to secure tickets to go to the Champions League in the following season, but to talk about it, it will still be a very long journey for them, because this is just the beginning and touching half the season yet. One note for them is that they must be able to keep their players in order to maintain their performance and be consistent until the end. Now I see that their squad is uneven, and with that they are prone to losing stability if at any time they have to lose their main players for one reason or another, such as injuries. The coach must be able to rotate players and it must be done now so that they are not confused later.
2870  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: October 14, 2023, 02:04:00 PM
I don't think there's anything strange about that, because scoring a goal or a lot of goals doesn't guarantee they can win the game, right? We can see from the results of their first match against Bayern Munich. They scored 3 goals, but Bayern Munich scored 4. Against Galatasay it was the same, they could create 2 goals but Galatasaray could create more than what they could create so that made Manchester United lose the match.
0 points from 2 matches, that's not a good result, and they are in danger of packing their bags and not making it to the knockout stages.
Manchester united happening to have the highest UCL goal scorers in no way make it a reason they should be topping the group, they have the highest goal scorers but they aren't the team with the most goal in UCL but then it's really not understandable why they would be loosing so bad with players who have the huge goals so far it sounds absurd.
If we look at their goal tally, then I'd say they don't have any problems up front, but when we look at the number of goals they've conceded then that's where we see their weaknesses. It's actually not a new thing when they have problems in defense, because last season they were the same. But the difference is that now they have a goalkeeper who is far from what is expected. When last season they had problems in their defense, their goalkeeper could still cover it up, but now the defense and goalkeeper are equally bad. Maybe this is too sadistic to say, but I have to say the facts on the field.
2871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 14, 2023, 01:05:56 PM
Maybe Dortmund don't have a squad as strong as Bayern Munich but they are still able to maintain their level in the Bundesliga. I really like their mentality for years. They have been making a lot of profit in talented player sales and they still manage to stand still in the league despite losing strength.
For example they haven't filled Bellingham's space with a similar talent. His contribution to the team was really significant you know. However they still don't make it a problem for themselves. We are watching them only two points away from the leader and having a winning streak of four games now.
Their mentality was put to dust in the last game of last season when in front of their home fans they needed to win at all cost to win the Bundesliga and they couldn't against a weaker team like Mainz,they drew 2-2 in that game,where was this strong winning mentality when it was the most needed,nowhere to be found.

They have a good streak it is true but I don't think they are the real contenders this time around,we have Leverkussen this season in a much better position and a much better squad that is keeping the same points as Bayern and they even got a draw at Bayern,they are the most serious contender for the title during this year.

I think if any team can compete with  Bayern munich for the title this season, it's leverkusen.  dortmund, stuttgart and Hoffenheim  are doing quite well now. But I am not sure if they can maintain the consistency. The Dortmund team  is in good form now.  They have won the last four matches. However their performance seems a bit  unstable to me.

Leverkusen team is very  strong this season. The team is  doing very well with the help of new coach Xabi alonso. Has maintained consistency since the first match of the season. Even against Bayern Munich we saw a better performance from Leverkusen. I think this team will maintain the consistency of their performance and stay at the top of the table.

Yes, it's true because only the four teams are now competing in the top five of the standings, Leverkusen still occupies the top position while Bayern Munich is in third position, these five teams are performing very well in the current season, especially for Leverkusen, therefore naturally Bayern Munich is having difficulty in seizing the top position of the Leverkusen squad which is very strong. Between Leverkusen, VfB, Dortmund and Hoffenheim I think what can really disturb the dominance of defending champions Bayern Munich is Leverkusen, just look at the beginning of the season they have been able to secure the top position and although they are down now they can return to reach the highest position. Therefore I think that those who can continue to perform consistently with strong precision are Leverkusen, right I see now Dortmund's appearance is unusual, they are quite consistent lately and are able to crawl up to 4th place in the standings, this is very good for a squad that is always haunted by the difficulty of performing consistently because of its business habits.

This is really not an easy season for Bayern Munich, I think there is very little chance for them to defend their title, and I think that it is very possible to break the dominance of Tuchel's squad now is Leverkusen, we'll see.

I agree if by assertive you mean in gambling, I mean if they have experienced several defeats or even just one defeat they should be assertive to stop, it's better than you are too late, because obviously if you are too late then you are very likely emotions will take over your mind and after that well maybe you already know what I mean, most likely what will happen is you will spend everything you have, including money and maybe borrow from some of your closest people there.

Of course, so it makes sense to say that environment has a huge influence on a person, if the environment is positive then it's good but if it's the opposite like this gambling? Well you will be carried away by the wrong association, you will say that it's natural because your environment is always like that, people around you do the same thing, that's a pretty obvious reason, when in fact it's wrong. We've already mentioned some of the effects on the person's attitude if they really are a gambler, like you said here and it's pretty easy to guess. Yes it's true, if they are already severely addicted then it's very difficult to stop, I'm sure many are asking how to overcome it, I would also probably just advise you to try it slowly.
Yes, that's right, before it's too late it would be good if you had the presence of mind to immediately stop at the right time, because if we force it, there's a big possibility that we will lose control and waste money. all our money is used for gambling so that we become addicted, problems will soon arise, namely borrowing money from other people so we can gamble again.

It's true, the environment has a strong influence on a person, because whether the environment around us is good or bad will attract us to socialize there. And the most important thing is that we are always careful in all the activities we do, including if we have entered the world of gambling, we must always be aware that if gambling is played excessively it will have a big impact on ourselves.

It's the only thing to do and there's really no other way but to quit. After all this is gambling that only relies on luck, if you continue to gamble with the aim of wanting to win like the previous time or maybe to restore the loss in the previous time then obviously I think it will only be a waste of time and money, the casino has arranged for you to continue to lose rather than win and obviously the percentage of winning is much lower than losing. So I think you have to consider that, if you understand that I'm sure you can stop doing that. Honestly, I wouldn't forbid them from gambling, but we have to really apply strong self-control and gamble only for fun, not for income.

And I think in general everyone also knows that the environment can be a very influential factor on a person, especially his personality, they will change very quickly because of this factor because every day they hang out with the wrong environment. It's not that it's not allowed, but if you know what's good and what's bad then go ahead, but if you just stand by and don't take any precautions then you will easily get into the wrong zone, especially gambling.
2873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler avoiding friends after a big win. on: October 14, 2023, 12:11:00 PM
Right and I think also maybe most of them do this because of assumptions like what you said above, they prefer to minimize, honestly I wouldn't say they are stingy but maybe many factors could be the reason, it could be because they have other payments, or for urgent needs or it could be they want to pay off their debts, the point is for their own needs. And well maybe they can also avoid people who want to borrow money, but they prefer to keep it a secret because maybe the person who wants to borrow money is not responsible enough.

Yes, everyone has different reasons why they can do that, or rather hide the winnings from the gambling results and of course that is enough reason that they think it is better to do. But in my opinion maybe it is mixed, meaning between those who are stingy and also with those who really have many other needs that become their reasons.
Yes, it was because of reasons not told to his friends that ultimately caused misunderstandings. Having a lot of money from the lottery or other gambling games will certainly make many people want to get closer to that person so they can share in their winnings and this is what might cause problems if later someone wants to borrow the money. Maybe that's what he wanted to avoid so that people thought he was stingy, but they didn't know the reason for doing that. Maybe it would be better if the winner kept his win a secret from everyone else so that no one knew about it and nothing changed about his relationships with his friends.

Well that's right, this can really make misunderstandings or end up with misunderstandings, and of course their friendship at least will definitely be tenuous, I really understand how when you are in such conditions and indeed I have also experienced the same thing. The role of money can indeed be an intermediary for us to find out how the real nature of the person is, whether our friends or relatives or whoever it is, money is very sensitive. Everyone wants money but not everyone wants to give money to others for free. If we really don't want to give a small portion of our winnings to others then it's better to keep it a secret, because of course if you tell but don't share the winnings at all then there will definitely be misunderstandings, even though there are other factors that are the reason why you don't give it, but other people won't care about all your reasons, they won't believe it.

By hiding your winnings from other people, you will be safe from various questions that your friends will ask and there will also be no people who might borrow your money. But those who win can invite their friends to eat to celebrate their victory but will not say that it was from their winnings playing the lottery.

There is nothing better unless you hide it, I'm sure you want your relationship to remain good with friends, so it's better to hide it, rather than causing problems that don't have to be a problem, if they don't know then obviously they won't ask anything or even borrow money, well it's true that if you still want to give your friends such as treating friends to food then you can just find another reason, the point is not to mention that the money is the result of gambling winnings.
2874  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: October 14, 2023, 11:31:24 AM
~snip~

Well basically minors are like that, they are very happy with something that can give them a sensation and a pleasant response, but it must be remembered not the sensation in gambling, but simple things that can make them smile. I think for them it is very unlikely to try gambling, logically they will not know how to gamble, how the game rotation system is there, although there is a chance of winning money but I think if they only see it it is very unlikely for them to try, although the chances are quite small for them to follow what their parents do but well you better avoid gambling around your child, the fear is that when they are very curious then often ask you and behind the scenes they might be able to find information from some social media maybe.

Lastly I think logically there is no way any parent would teach gambling to their child, even though they know that everyone has different luck but adults and children are very different in their thinking, so it's very worrying. And yeah it's best that you don't gamble in front of your children, and if you can you should also quit that activity, that's all I can think of.
Its funny how children's curiosity can raise so many questions, isnt it? Children, with their infinite curiosity and pure joy, discover happiness in simple things. A bubble, cardboard box, or simple game can delight and amaze them, which is funny. You're suggesting introducing children to a sophisticated world like gambling would be confusing and dangerous, right? Since infants absorb information like sponges, one cannot overlook the prospective consequences.

What happens when a parent's harmless hobby, like playing poker with pals, fascinates their child? Isn't it a mess? Kids might be curious, ask questions, and want to act like adults. While gambling may not be a literal lesson, nuances and acts experienced by young eyes may teach them more than we realize. The answer? As you properly suggested, keeping such activities adult-only and out of sight of children may protect their innocence.

Of course, because the curiosity they feel will raise some questions when they see their parents gambling, and it is natural for a child with a lot of innocence in him, it doesn't matter if the parents think gambling in front of their children is a mistake, because of course the next time they will not do the same thing like that, but what is worried is when their parents invite or teach or answer some of their children's questions honestly or according to the facts and do not divert the conversation at all. If the parents do that then I am sure there will be a much higher curiosity from the child, they will continue to ask questions at a later time.

Basically a child who is still underage, especially one who is only 7 - 10 years old, will not really understand whether there is a risk or not, all they think about is fun for whatever comes, so of course we adults must be able to take action to prevent or minimize so that the things that are worried about do not happen. There is no other way because children will not care about anything you do, all they want is something fun, so the point is that we or the parents themselves must take precautions, that's all.
2875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I can’t cope on my own. What do you think I should do? on: October 14, 2023, 11:03:05 AM
Yes, it is true that some of them are aware of their addiction and some are not at all, as we know that addiction is under the human consciousness so it is very natural that they are not aware of it and maybe only a small percentage are aware of it, they feel that they have done something reasonable, none other than that happens because of their wrong mindset and have been instigated by expectations that are too high in gambling. So even though for example they experience defeat it is like a very ordinary thing, even though it happens very often, and somehow when they win they are very happy. But just try if you count the number of wins and losses must be greater your defeat there.

If it is already addicted I think some advice from others will not fully help because they will remain firmly in the wrong mindset that they think is right, but there is nothing wrong with giving advice because obviously it is nothing but for their good too, some are successful but only a small percentage, and I say it depends on the level of their addiction, if it is severe it will be higher. Of course if it's true as you say, if they don't stop immediately then there will definitely be unexpected effects, but strangely they never think about it.
His losses will be bigger than his wins but he doesn't realize it and instead continues gambling because he thinks that his losses will pay off when he can get a big win. But unfortunately, he doesn't know when he can win big and he can only keep dreaming while continuing to gamble until finally he can win big or not at all. And yes, he will get addicted if he does not realize that something has changed about him by gambling too often, making him continue to hope for a big win. Even though he has lost so many times that he may no longer be able to calculate how much money he has spent gambling.

His addiction will make him close his ears to other people's advice because it is useless to him at all. After all, he only sees that he can still have a chance to win big from gambling. But it's all uncertain because in gambling, someone may find it difficult to get their big win. Maybe he could get a small win but it still wouldn't be enough to recover from his growing losses. However, he should try to get out of gambling slowly and realize he has made a mistake.

Of course, because if they come to focus on finding victory then I'm sure the number of losses is far more than the victory, that's for sure, because the casino has arranged everything and the real victory is only purely for the casino itself, and you only get a little. But strangely they always think that if they try it again then surely they will be able to get a win to compensate for the losses in the previous time, honestly I am really strange with that kind of mindset, even though no one can predict when you will win, but to lose is definitely more often. and I say that's the disease that every gambling addict suffers from. Of course if the wrong mindset continues to be allowed then surely they will be worse off and obviously things that are not wanted will happen.

Honestly, I also can't think that people who are already addicted can recover with just advice, maybe it will be able to help but I think the chances are very small but this is a pretty good alternative and hopefully even with advice they can realize, no one knows. So the point is that gambling is really only about luck, no matter how often you play, if luck does not come then you will continue to lose, so the point is to try to think more wisely and realistically.

The competition became more tighter to many good artist show some skills and became more competitive since they see a lot of artist now is improving .
HAHA!! Exactly what I thought right now.

Other members who have always participated in monthly art contests, especially in the digital category, have improved a LOT! Seriously, they've become more meticulous, adding intricate details to their artworks. The story of their concept has improved, as well as their choice of colors and the proportionality of Mr. Roo and other fancy add-on characters!

It makes me wonder how I can keep up with these people when I get busy with my day job. You see, creating artworks during school hours is much easier than in the office.
Experience allows them to learn a lot, and that's what I see. Indeed, every time a contest is organized, there is always progress from the participants. I was really enthusiastic to see this, something that not only did the participants become the best of the best, but they also developed a lot in making a work. This indirectly sharpens their skills and this must be recognized as something good from this contest.
Indirectly, this contest is not only chasing prizes but also a medium for participants to develop their abilities.

 I fail to understand how Manchester United players are top scorers in the UCL so far but have 0 points in their Group, their performance in this season is very poor and it's affected them also in the UCL, losing against Bayern Munich is understandable based on Bayern's squad however they almost tried to get a draw, but losing against Galatasaray at home is very embarrassing, Manchester United's team lacked  composure, they weren't focused enough in the game and that's why they lost.

 However they've made qualifying for the next round even more tougher than it's supposed to be, cause to qualify for the next round they'll need to beat Copenhagen home/away and get a 3 points in Galatasaray's home then probably get a draw from Bayern Munich which would be very tough tasks for them to achieve.
I don't think there's anything strange about that, because scoring a goal or a lot of goals doesn't guarantee they can win the game, right? We can see from the results of their first match against Bayern Munich. They scored 3 goals, but Bayern Munich scored 4. Against Galatasay it was the same, they could create 2 goals but Galatasaray could create more than what they could create so that made Manchester United lose the match.
0 points from 2 matches, that's not a good result, and they are in danger of packing their bags and not making it to the knockout stages.

Week 8, let's look at the bottom of the table, precisely in the relegation zone. Until this week there are 2 clubs that have not won at all, yes they are Bournemouth and Sheff United, and Sheff United is one of the promoted clubs this season. While 1 other club in the relegation zone is Burnley, who also has the status of a promotion club this season.
With this proving that they have not been able to compete fiercely as a promoted club. Although this is the beginning, but still this makes me conclude that they are not fully ready to be here. But let's see if they will be able to improve or get worse.

Like the previous season Girona was also quite surprising, but at the end of that season their performance dropped drastically so they didn't get any tickets other big competitions in Europa. This season their performance is better than the previous season, it's quite impressive that in 9 matches they can be able collect 22 points, that's actually a good record. But yes, there is no guarantee that Girona can continue to be consistent until the end because their track record is not very convincing.
It is true that there is no guarantee for Girona to continue to be as consistent as he has been in the nine matches at the start of this season, but who knows if this season Girona will continue to try to be more consistent until the end of the season in order to create a better record for himself. Because being consistent for a full season will not be easy for all teams, this is because the mainstay players must not suffer injuries and receive cards that can cause players to be on the bench. So that's what Girona must continue to maintain if they want to continue competing at the top by being in the best position.
When I saw Girona, I was reminded of Sevilla in the previous 2 seasons who could also compete with Real Madrid. But the question that will always be asked when there is a club like them in the top flight is, will they be able to be consistent until the end of the season or not? Sevilla went through the same thing and still ended up losing second place at the end of the season, as Barcelona improved under Xavi H. We will always assume this until the end of the season and see if they are consistent or not.
I personally hope they can be consistent, so that I can see there are clubs that can provide tough competition not only the 3 clubs that I usually see.

People forgot if signing a coach that perform good in previous team has no guarantee he can get a good result when joining a new team. The recent coach who like this is Ten Hag where he successfully brought Ajax into semi final UCL, but when he joined Manchester United, he just destroying Manchester United little by little.
regarding Man United, which has brought in a coach like Ten Hag, for me it is not a disaster when he fails to bring his team to bigger competitions, but I judge it from the bright side that he is able to give the best for Man United. the fact is that after going through a bad time last season, Man United was able to end up in 3rd place in the EPL standings even though they failed in the UCL, it does not mean that Ten Hag destroyed Man United like other coaches who failed in the UCL competition. they can not be said to have failed or damaged the team in order to win the title UCL is very difficult, even if the coach is experienced but the players dont have the quality skills to get to the final round, it will only be in vain.

so Man United current bad streak does not seem like Ten Hag fault, but we have to realistically assess the good side and see whether Man United players deserve to perform better like last season.
I agree that the presence of Erik Ten Hag made them compete in the top 4 last season, but on the other hand I also see that it is not enough for Manchester United.
I also agree that this is not Ten Hag's fault entirely, but the role of management also plays a role in what Manchester United are experiencing. But when many blame him for Manchester United's performance, it is also not wrong, because he is the one who is directly dealing and providing the strategy of all the games displayed by Manchester United. The coach is the first person who will be in the spotlight when the club fails to perform well.
