Yes we can see what Lens are feeling this season, they were very good last season, but this season they have to be thrown into a position that should not see them there. What's worrying is that they are the club representing Ligue 1 in the Champions League alongside Paris Saint Germain. What becomes more interesting is when we see their performance in the Champions League which could be better, even they can beat Arsenal in their last match in the Champions League or in the second match there. It's like the inverse between them being in Ligue 1 and in the Champions League.

Talking about Ronldo's retirement, I honestly feel a sense of loss, yes I have seen how his journey from Sporting to now being in the Arab League with Al Nassr, and in the not too distant future we will most likely hear an official announcement about him retiring.
One thing I'm waiting for is whether he's interested in staying in a football environment other than being a plyer, or if he's interested in becoming a coach, then we'll see the different roles he'll play. And that would be great to see.

Yes his departure to the MLS is a sign that he won't be around much longer and maybe he'll announce his retirement soon, although there are no rumors of that at the moment.
This is the era of youth and young plyers should be able to compete more competitively, and indeed many young players are showing good progress at the moment. Many clubs are promoting young players, and even the price of young players is now very high for a club to bring in.
This will continu and we will see it in the next World Cup.

But the question is will they be able to maintain everything they have shown so far? Because I'm not just one or two times seeing clubs in Ligue 1 lose stability after they play well. That's what I still doubt about them, and actually it's not just them that I doubt, but almost all the clubs here I doubt in maintaining their consistency. I want a league that presents a more interesting competition, and interesting it is not from their inconsistency, because I see more interesting competition now because they show poor consistency.

Well really I agree with you, even though for example they are always firm in their decision to hide their bad habits, but I think eventually it will definitely be found out too, just like a carcass wherever you hide it will smell over time. Honestly, I am also one of the active gamblers and I always hide my bad habits from my family, but gradually when they find out that my finances are reduced, my family can already conclude that I gamble, they can guess that because the environment around me is quite active in gambling, so that's a pretty easy guess.

In addition, changes in attitude can also be an indication and we can find out from there, as we know that those who gamble will definitely change their attitude indirectly, they will be more emotional over time. So of course no matter how you hide your bad habits, eventually you will be found out too, especially by some of the people closest to you such as family. If you are still quite new to gambling then yes just a suggestion maybe it will be able to make them consider that this activity is really not profitable and there will only multiply the problems. So the point is that there is nothing better than quitting, I think that's all.

And I think that's a pretty true saying, I'm sure most of them would admit that this is true. It's not always about winning at gambling but the point is when you have money then a lot of people will approach you including close people and even people we know only occasionally they are very likely to come to borrow money, as you said. I think that even if you don't tell anyone that you have a lot of money it won't completely prevent them from coming, there are many factors that can make them eventually find out.

I also think that it's their right, it's up to them whether or not they want to give to other people including their closest friends, but people don't want to be labeled bad and stingy by their surroundings, so if they have the intention of not giving a little money from their winnings to anyone then they prefer to hide it and not tell anyone. If they announce it but do not give pocket money at all to their friends then surely people will stay away from them because they are already known to be bad and stingy in terms of solidarity.

Well it's true that usually children who are still at the age of 7 - 10 years are very happy when playing games, it's quite easy for them to understand and of course they will get pleasure there. As in general and we also may already know that minors have a very high curiosity about whatever they see, if they only see you gambling I think it won't have much effect because they won't understand what you are doing, unless you force the child to follow your gambling and teach it then it is very possible that the things that are feared will happen, even though they have a high enough curiosity but if there is nothing to encourage them then they will not enter the gambling.

Yes that's right, it's better for you to explain the bad effects that exist in this gambling rather than bringing them to do the same thing, and if you do otherwise then as we know the various negative effects they will feel, such as the downturn that many people have felt.

Yes, maybe the role of a professional can help in this problem, but I don't think it will be completely influential because in essence they will be able to get the cure if they want it for something better. But the problem is that it is very difficult to be able to restore the addicted mindset to normal again, almost all of their thoughts have been instigated in gambling, their expectations are too high so that they always spin in a gambling cycle that never has a limit.

Basically, it is quite difficult to cure someone from gambling addiction, especially if it is at a high level. But that doesn't mean we have to just let it go, we still have to make efforts as the closest person to him or his family, calling those who are already professionals is pretty good, and also in my opinion they as his family should try to provide other activities to that person, just give or invite them to do other activities that are still fun but there is no risk in it,
so that slowly they will be a little distracted from the gambling mind, and well with some advice too of course.

Yes if you can do that it's great, because those who are addicted will be helped a lot by some of your suggestions, but I think for those who are already addicted it might be very difficult, because as we know they have their own mindset in gambling, and obviously their perspective in seeing it is far from normal, in the sense that usually they are too excessive so that they can enter the addiction phase. So for those who are already addicted, maybe you need a lot of time or hard work so that the advice you give them can be accepted well, as you said that they can no longer be advised. It's okay if you want to advise them with the aim of helping because it's quite good, so with you I hope they will consider some of the advice you give especially in the problem of losing.

It's quite difficult but that doesn't mean it's impossible, that way maybe they will realize slowly. And well usually those gamblers who are already addicted must first feel a significant downturn before finally thinking that this is really a bad habit that only causes a lot of problems, so after they experience that I think there is a chance of awareness for them to stop.

Freiburg started this season with a shaky start, they really struggled to be able to make them more consistent in winning points every game. Next week they will face Bochum, this is their chance to be able to secure full points at their own headquarters. The previous match they lost and that will affect their mentality. Bochum is not a very tough club, they are one of the clubs that are at the bottom of the current standings with only 4 points. This is a good opportunity for Freiburg, I hope they can make good use of it.

Yes they should do that, should give their second goalkeeper more chances after Onana's poor form so far. Now the options are not many for them and they must have a firm stance on this. Erik Ten Hag has to do something to turn them around, because I haven't seen anything special from Manchester United so far.
The fact that they let David de Gea leave leaves them with little choice. But it's not good to regret everything, because what they should be thinking about is how they can get up, not necessarily quickly, but slowly but surely.

We'll see how far they will be able to consistently maintain their performances at the beginning of this season. Last season they finished 8th in the final standings, and now they are perched in the top 4, above last season's champions, Napoli. This will only enter week 9, so there are still many matches that will await them ahead, be it against weaker clubs or with stronger clubs.
But so far they have shown a game that can be expected to compete on the board or standings. They just need to give a few touches and also they must be able to be consistent, that is the key.

Xabi is close to Real Madrid, in fact he is one of the longest-serving Real Madrid plyers. I remember when Real Madrid played Atletico Madrid in the Champions League, he was one of the supporters of Real Madrid and ran down from the stands when Real Madrid scored.
He's more interested in Real Madrid, I agree with that, he's also been there for a long time and that makes it easy for him to adapt to Real Madrid's conditions. But my question is, will he have the same success as when he was a player at Real Madrid? That's a question that can be answered after he officially becomes Real Madrid coach.

We cannot look at a player's ability from one side only, but we must be able to see how the player contributes to the game in his club. Vini is not a player who scores goals in every game, but his play as a team contributes greatly to Real Madrid. Maybe this season he's also declined a little bit, but slowly he can also slowly find his game again and that's good for a player.
This is also a normal thing, as long as the decline is not for a long time, or in other words, the player can quickly find his game again.

Yes I agree with that, gambling is a very bad risk, gambling can make us addicted periodically and of course the bad effects will be felt for gamblers but it varies, some think about the bad effects, some don't care at all and continue to gamble with the hope of a big win, in my own opinion this gambling can endanger the future and can even damage the future, it's almost the same as drug addiction more or less like that, even though you have a lot of money it's not good to gamble because basically gambling is just spending money in vain.

Everyone knows that if you want to make a lot of money then working hard is the way, but if you think gambling can make a lot of money it is wrong, especially by making gambling the main income, this is very bad but bad and even fatal consequences later even though there are some people who gamble just for fun more or less they have lost their money for gambling. So in conclusion, don't try it if you don't want to ruin your future.

As we know in any case, if you instill a sense of greed, it will usually lead to things you don't want, such as downturns, especially in gambling, it is very dangerous if you bring greed to gambling because it is clear that winning or losing greed will always bring problems for you, especially in finances and also mentally will definitely be disturbed there too. For gambling itself, greed is usually for those who have experienced addiction, are never satisfied with what they get, as you said above and always want more. Basically it is very difficult friends if the person is already addicted, it is difficult to resist that greed even though well indeed avoiding is a better way, but their curiosity always encourages them to continue their gambling.

I think only a few can apply full control and responsibility in their gambling. Agree, if you have won then it is better to immediately make a withdrawal, greed comes out of your curiosity and of course for the final result will not always be in accordance with what you want, it is even very likely that you will lose the victory again. So the point is even though your winnings are a little no problem, it's better than you lose.

Yes that's the conclusion when you always lose, but here I will add a little to be more detailed, which is "this is a place to seek entertainment and fun but for those who overdo it then as a result they will get a lot of losses that they never expected before, and that's a waste of money as a result of putting hope in the wrong place". On the other hand, when they bring the right mindset to gambling, it means that whatever result they will get will not matter, if they win it means they are lucky and losing it means they are unlucky and I think that is the real gambling, so getting hope is not a good assumption but silly.

There are some assumptions made by some people that you can get income from gambling, I ask, is it true? have you proven it? you say that in a place that is only limited to luck? does not make sense, and what happens is? you still lose, it is a victory not income, income is synonymous with what is called consistent, while you get it only occasionally. That's why there are more defeats than wins. So there is a big difference between winning and earning, so I think they should change their mindset from now on before it's too late.

True, in the matter of human identity and how people really are we can test using money, as you say "money can reveal the human identity" honestly I really agree with this statement, which is already quite a lot of people who prove this including I have also tried it on several friends around me, And well besides that, a large enough victory in gambling can also answer about how people are, when they win they will like to hide and avoid you, and when they lose they like to continue to follow you, I have proven it where one of my friends avoids and I don't know what caused it and then I heard from one of my other friends that he just hit a big jackpot.

I honestly don't know how to deal with things like this, because it involves the personality and nature of each individual, but well don't take them too seriously, just let them go if they don't harm you and also certainly don't expect anything. If they have a good awareness and sense of solidarity then they will also definitely give you a little of their winnings, but if not then let it go as long as it doesn't harm you even though you are actually very kind to that person or like to help them. The most painful disappointment is when you expect people.

The OP's statement is very appropriate with "don't force to play more", of course as you experienced. If indeed the gambling that you are doing cannot give you a win or an increase then it is better to start to stop, you have been gambling for several days and even with that long time it turns out that the results are still even, nothing more and no improvement and all that exists is that you continue to lose and then when you try again several times to restore the defeat in the previous time. Honestly, it's very boring and I'm sure anyone who experiences such conditions will feel tired.

Basically, it is true that gambling is only for entertainment, and if you come to win then you will face this cycle, for example, like the OP's experience here, you will only exchange one win for 5 losses or even more than that if you continue to play. True, it is actually not difficult to get a win if you are lucky, and it certainly won't take long to get it. So if you experience a cycle or condition like this you better stop, because if you continue it will only add to your financial problems. So the point is not to be greedy and stick to a healthy mindset in looking at this gambling.

It's been said that Real Madrid is Mbappe's dream club, and when asked if he'd like to sign for Real Madrid, I think we already know what the answer is.
This is not the only time he has been rumored to join Rael Mdrid, but in recent seasons he has been widely rumored to join Real Madrid. Even in the previous season, he was one step away from being rumored to be joining Real Madrid, but a more tempting offer came from Paris Saint Germain which ultimately made Mbape prefer Paris to Spain. Even that caused Real Madrid supporters to talk about no longer targeting Mbappe.
