RESULT:

Fulham 0-2 Chelsea

You went for 1-2 and I went for 1-4 therefore were far closer to the final result than I was. Mudryk  finally got off the mark with a goal and it should give him a lot of confidence because Chelsea paid huge amounts to buy him. Broja got the second goal, he played well. What was still not good enough was they had 44% possession when Fulham had 56%. Chelsea are slowly coming back on track.

As for Fulham, they played well. They had opportunities to get back in the game but it was not their night.


@JollyGood Poch and Chelsea player’s badly needed an victory and they finally got one and this shall definitely boost their confidence because Poch is an excellent coach and he’s managing an exceptionally talented squad hence it’s only a matter of time before they all click. Lastly even on social media I had seen many people write off Chelsea and they had claimed that Fulham would easily beat them but now they all have to eat their words back because Chelsea won and that too without conceding a goal.

But Messi is said to have determined the time to leave Inter Miami. Messi seems to have no intention of staying long with Inter Miami after his contract ends in 2025. Could this injury spark his thoughts of retiring from his career?
After Messi joined Inter Miami, Inter Miami's winning streak continued but Messi was absent from Inter Miami for several matches due to a particular injury. Sadly, without Messi, Inter Miami is a winless team. Messi played a total of 12 matches for Inter Miami and scored 11 goals and assisted five goals. Messi also won the title for Inter Miami.
However, Messi joined Inter Miami with a two-year contract, but at the end of the two-year contact, he no longer wants to be a new Inter Miami. Messi has confirmed to reporters that he will join his native club at the end of his two-year contract.

@LDL Messi is a global superstar hence it was not surprising to see him uplift Inter Miami on his own but what’s surprising is how over dependent they have become on him that they can’t even win in his absence. Furthermore this injury doesn’t look good because he’s missed too many matches now and while I don’t think that he’ll retire but there’s a possibility that he may now consider quitting Inter Miami and return back home in 2024 only.

PSG is increasingly inconsistent in Ligue 1 even though in terms of strength they are quite strong on all fronts this season. But the draw from today's match means their quality seems to be in question this season. When facing a team with a low ranking, they seem to find it difficult to achieve maximum results. I think if PSG continue to throw away their points then I believe they will suffer the same fate as last season, namely competing until the end of the competition to become champions.

Mbappe received a yellow card in this match, he was really frustrated because he failed to score a goal in this match. Statistically, PSG has succeeded in dominating possession of the ball, but if the final result is without 3 points, of course that is not very important. Luis Enrique seems to need time to organize the PSG squad so that they can maintain concentration to achieve victory in every match they play.
Even I am consistently saying we have decrease in French League quality in last few years with lack of funds and quality players are hurting badly but in this game we have PSG vs Clermont which is currently at the bottom and having nothing positive in last few games they were able to stop Mbappé and PSG all attack to score any goal against them which is surely more than shocking for the all soccer fans because no one was expecting result like these we have few shocking results in different leagues as well but goalless draw is surely big slap on PSG and their multi-billion squads against team like Clermont.

There were few hopes we will have some improvement even right now it's just early days in season but still things are not going as they needed to be done Luis Enrique is big name, but he needs time to settle many problems which are coming from last few years hopefully things will be improved now they are heading to England for the another challenge against Newcastle United which is also not easy and any result less than win is surely going to hurt their confidence and cause for having positive end of this season.

I watched the match and felt sorry for PSG. When I saw the football played by such a valuable club, I thought I could do better with a cheaper club. There is no attack organization. They do not have any tactics developed against closed defenses. They do nothing but throw the ball to Mbappe or a fast player on the field.

PSG cannot achieve success with this football in all the cups they play this season. They have become a team far from both quality and football spirit.

It was a huge mistake for Mbappe to stay in this team and now he is suffering the consequences of this mistake by losing points.

@flyingcarpet I have stopped expecting from PSG this season because of their poor handling of Mbappe situation and their transfers also didn’t inspire confidence hence I’m not surprised that they’re performing so poorly. Furthermore I yet strongly feel that they should sell Mbappe and replace him with Napoli’s striker Victor to salvage this season.

Even though Man United previously managed to get a big win against Crystal Palace, that doesn't mean they will be able to repeat the same story in other matches. Instead of winning, they ended up losing when playing at home. A defeat that should be a lesson for Man United.

Since the match started, Man United immediately took the initiative to attack and they managed to dominate the game because of these efforts, it's just that they failed to get a goal from the several opportunities they had. Man United's performance was not too bad, but what made them fail to score was that Crystal Palace played very well defensively. Crystal Palace has a pretty solid defense and Sam Johnstone played quite impressively.
The solid defense and well-organized play shown by Crystal Palece made United look like they were unable to develop their game and failed to score a goal. Many say that this is the best comeback and the most dramatic revenge, because it happened at the Old Trafford stadium. Ten Hag made a statement, and said that this defeat was caused by The Red Devils weak defense and dull front line. Hojlund has so far not managed to score a goal in the EPL since making his debut.

I don't think Ten Hag is able to bring United out of this difficult phase, 7 matches with 9 points is a very difficult situation for fans to understand. I hope Rashford and Bruno are better off just being on the bench, when both of them don't play United can win easily.

@marcous while I’m unhappy that Manchester United lost but I can’t solely blame it on Ten Hag because we have lost all our LB to injuries now and that was always going to be an big issue. Lastly but I’ll blame the player’s as they’re constantly underperforming and yet they’re not being benched and if Ten Hag wants a response he needs to bench his favourites to teach them a lesson otherwise this season will only keep getting worse for Manchester United.

It's sad when I have to repeat myself because people don't read the whole story.
My account is VERIFIED, with my GERMAN ADDRESS. So stake is well aware who I am and I don't hide anything. They even advise people to use VPN if you are geo restricted, Eddie said that several times on stream.
I think I will change my address with stake at some point soon, but only if it's not too much work.

Every user from Germany now uses VPN, since some months you cant log in from a German IP anymore. And stake knows they have hundreds if not thousands of players from Germany. None of those players gets banned but they are all online and active (as you can see in German chat on stake).
I'm sorry to make you repeat but quotes were snipped and I haven't checked all of them.
Yes, you are right, you can't access 99% of casinos from Germany but that's really strange if Stake advices people to use VPN because their ToS says otherwise, it's written on Stake.com:
Quote
14.4 The attempt to manipulate your real location through the use of VPN, proxy, or similar services or through the provision of incorrect or misleading information about your place of residence, with the intent to circumvent geo-blocking or jurisdiction restrictions, constitutes a breach of Clause 5 of this Terms of Service.
But there is the question, Stake tells me it's okay to abuse their Terms in this case but what if I win a lot and try to withdraw and then they'll tell me that I abuse their Terms and they won't let me to withdraw? I want it to be clear.

Yesterday I actually spoke to my VIP host getting some answers.
I told her I am living abroad and if possible want to change my address to avoid possible future complication because of Germany being on the restricted region list.

She told me, no need to worry, it's all good. If I want to update the address I could but at the moment there is no need for that. Apparently being from Germany, even though the TOS state otherwise, is no problem.

Kind of strange but if the support says so...


@AHOYBRAUSE could you attach an screenshot for all because this would help all German user’s who’re using VPN and I hope someone from team Stake can clarify their stand here on this. Lastly this is a baffling situation because casinos don’t usually allow this and Stake is violating their own rule but till user’s who use VPN get paid it won’t be a big issue however when Stake doesn’t pay citing VPN use it’ll be a big issue.

The last time Bayern Munich met with Leipzig this season in the super cup competition it wasn't easy for Bayern Munich , the game was really tough for Bayern Munich and Leipzig was able to win the game. Today Bayern Munich will be meeting Leipzig in their home which I don't know if it can be possible for Bayern Munich to defeat Leipzig. Bayern Munich is quite doing better than Leipzig in points but we all know that Leipzig is not doing bad this season and since it is their home they may not give Bayern Munich the chance to win.

Bayern and Leipzig are separated by just one point, for Leipzig this can be a very good motivation, especially since they have already beaten Bayern in the Super Cup match. Yesterday Dortmund beat Hoffenheim and went around Bayern, it is also to make Bayern think about victory, Bayer can also lead the table in this tour in this round. In the Bundeslig the beginning of this season, very competitive...

@Cryptmuster during that loss Kane was just settling in but now he’s fully settled and now Leipzig won’t find it that easy to beat Bayern. Also this match will be very entertaining because both the team’s would like to grab those 3 points and secure an psychological advantage in this title race thus if you’re planning to wager on this match then I would suggest to pick Bayern because of Kane’s goal scoring abilities.

Newcastle vs Man City - EFL Cup 3rd round @ 20:00 UK Time.


I’m getting on Newcastle @ 2.88 w/Super Boost -
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/england/efl-cup/newcastle-united-v-manchester-city-65041bd512740800010d0837

I just feel like the Toon Army will take this cup more seriously than City who will have their eyes on other prizes. I think Howe will make less changes than Guardiola and with a passionate home crowd behind Howe’s men, that could be the difference.
Newcastle United won Manchester City with a goal from Alexander Isak but they could score more goals if their players made better decisions like passing a ball to team mates who were at better positions and had more space to shot than shot by themselves.

In general, Manchester City created opportunities too but in this match, they did not have reasons to regret about the defeat as Newcastle United actually deserve this win.

The stats are all skewed to Manchester City from ball possession to total shots but Newcastle United did challenge Manchester City and made many dangerous counter attacking. City players lost ball very dangerously in the midfield area when most of their players were already in Newcastle United side.

Match stats

@LFC_Bitcoin you were right as City definitely wants to focus on winning the Premier League and the Champions League hence they didn’t bother about winning this match but Newcastle next face a tough opponent in the form of Manchester United and that shall be a tricky match for Newcastle. @MusaMohamed Newcastle indeed played well and didn’t show fear because many team’s fear when playing against City and that was the key factor in my personal opinion which allowed them to win this game.

Mmm...  Don't think it's just a bad run.  Losing vs West Ham, sure.  I'd get it as David Moyes could outfox better managers with better squads.  But then losing against Nottingham Forest, a draw vs Bournemouth and a loss vs Aston Villa at home?  Something's really wrong behind scenes.

And I got Fulham vs Chelsea at a nil - nil draw.  But wouldn't be surprised if Fulham wins it 1 - 0.

I think Fulham draw no bet looks decent value in this spot.

@tokeweed there’s massive talent in this Chelsea squad and for some unknown reason they haven’t yet exploded  but I yet believe in Poch that he can turn things around so I don’t consider it wise to wager against them. Lastly while Fulham will do their best to beat Chelsea but I have a strong feeling that Chelsea will bounce back in style because now Poch has seen enough and should be able to motivate his player’s to secure those 3 vital points.

As a coach, Ancelotti understands better than Girona coach Michel, of course Ancelotti will not underestimate Girona achievements in the last seven weeks. As a club that is unbeaten in La Liga, Girona needs to be anticipated with the best squad that Madrid currently has. Vinicus return from injury could be a blessing for Los Blancos up front, and it looks like Ancelotti will use a 4-3-1-2 formation by pairing Rodrygo with Vinicius as the spearhead. Bellingham will support as second striker, a role to which he has adapted quickly.

I am still quite confident that Madrid can recover after suffering their first defeat to Atletico, even though Girona will play at home, but that is not something the Los Blancos squad needs to be afraid of. Girona needs great luck to beat Madrid and continue the positive trend, I think that will be very difficult to achieve this time.
Vinicius' return to the team, it's very positive news, although it may take him some time to fully return to the game. It is worth noting that Joselu, during the absence of Vinicius, also proved that he deserves a place in the team, since his goals often helped Real achieve the necessary victories.

In recent matches, Bellingham has not been as good as he was at the beginning of the season, but in any case, Real Madrid's attack now looks very powerful. As for Girona, they are also in great shape and this match will be at their stadium, which could give them some kind of advantage. My opinion is that even a draw would be a good result for Girona in this match.

@Altryist Jude has been performing exceptionally well till now and even if he underperforms in one or two matches it’s fine because he’s singled handedly won many matches for them. Furthermore if Vinicius is back then that’ll definitely boost Real Madrid and reduce pressure on Jude because in his absence lots of pressure was on Jude to score and thus his return is definitely a good sign for Real Madrid.

At the end of last season, he publicly told that he and his players deserved more than just a position beyond top four and a runner up in Europa League. He implied that the club should invest more on transfer market which did not happen in the last summer. His contract will expire next summer and with all happened in the summer as well as bad beginning of season, Mourinho likely lost his belief on the club readiness for transfer investment and he will not expand his contract with Roma.
As Mourinho has lost motivation with Roma his article mentions that Roma and himself are bad at the beginning of the season, while from 6 matches 1x won the rest lost and drew it is clear that this is not a good result for Roma who should be in the top 10 of the standings.
I doubt he will last much longer at Roma given that there is no big investment with players that Mourinho expects, is it possible that Mourinho lacks finances so there is no big investment?

With this crushing defeat there have been many losses expecting Roma's victory in betting.
I think one of the biggest challenges of Jose Mourinho since ho took over the managerial position at Roma is the fact that the club isn't financially stable enough to sign the quality players Mourinho would've wanted for himself at the club and that I think has really affected the Portuguese manager from delivering consistent good performances and results for the Italian club.
The club hasn't been very active like the other Italian big clubs in the transfer market which has been a big worry for the manager. I think a manager of Mourinho's pedigree isn't supposed to be managing club like Roma who's not ready to sign high profile players

@Docnaster while Roma have struggled financially but they did managed to get Mourinho a striker like Lukaku and Sanches and last season they had got Dybala hence it’s up to Mourinho to get the best out of them. Lastly I feel that he’s on borrowed time and 2 - 3 more defeat’s will end his spell with Roma and it won’t be surprising because he often gets sacked in the third season.

However, Osimhen was the Scudetto hero for Napoli last season and he should not have received such ridicule on social media, especially when it was Napoli's own official account on TikTok that was attacked. I think Osimhen is indeed suitable to play at Real Madrid, especially considering that he is one of the best number 9 strikers at the moment, so there is no harm in Real Madrid starting to offer a deal if Osimhen is really shaky with Napoli because of this problem.

I would have taken what happened as a joke but when you look back at how they have treated Victor Osimhen at Napoli then you'll understand why what happen wasn't a joke but a deliberate act by the social media handler to mock Victor Osimhen. He's a good penalties taker but that doesn't mean he won't miss some chances butt for the fact that your own club can mock you for that and this same club didn't want to recognized what you did for them in their title winning season because you're black is just shameful. I have always said it that Victor Osimhen doesn't deserve to stay at Napoli, I would had been great if he came to Chelsea since they're in need of a striker of his ability but the fact that Chelsea isn't playing in European competition is why I haven't said anything about his decision to remind at Napoli. He shouldn't stay there anymore and look for a transfer to any English top clubs not even Real Madrid.


@CryptopreneurBrainboss what happened with Victor was disgusting and very bad and now I’m hoping that he can sue them for a big amount or the club tears his contract so he can move to a better club who’ll respect him. Lastly Real Madrid, Chelsea, PSG are the favourites to get him but I won’t be surprised if Arsenal also target him as they also could use a striker like him.

Haaland cannot join the Norwegian national team in the Euro 2024 qualifiers because he is suffering from a groin injury so the decision of the coach and management of the Norwegian national team may be correct because forcing Haaland to play might result in a more serious injury.
But without Haaland presence Norway looks less than optimal and I think the front line is still not sharp enough to launch attacks.

It's not going to matter anyway. The chances that Norway may qualify either for Euro 2024 or the FIFA World Cup of 2026 is minimal. They are not in a good position as far as the Euro qualifiers are concerned. In Group A, they are now at third place behind Scotland and Spain. Even if Haaland plays for them for the remaining matches, I don't think that Norway will be able to overtake Spain and thereby qualify for the main tournament. I also don't understand what is the benefit Haaland is going to get in representing Norway. He should rather focus on his role with Manchester City F.C.

@Sithara007 he’s young and he wants to pursue international glory too hence it makes sense that he wishes to represent Norway. Also Halland has improved by leaps and bound and under Pep he’s evolved a lot hence whenever he plays for Norway there’s definitely a chance for them so it’s unwise to think that he can’t have any positive impact while representing Norway.

^  Yup...  That usually gets the better of me too.  Being too smart and overthinking my picks when the obvious choice is obvious.  Lol.  Just like my Doku pick.  I mean Haaland is right there practically almost a lock to score a goal at every match in the league.  :/

^  He always should be the pick for City but for some reason I'm not sure why I ever thought Doku was the better pick.  :/  He had such a nice game vs West Ham, it felt like the right move at the time.

This week looks easy on paper, but will probably prove anything but easy.
And what's really nice this season is we have the option of choosing no goal scorers, which is fair.  We didn't have it during the years prior.
Yeah, that one is rarely used but sometimes really comes handy.

In the end it proved quite easy week for me, 5/7 correct and another 25$ free bet should be coming my way. If only Edouard and Mbuemo did their job, it could have been the big prize Smiley

Who were your picks if you don't mind me asking...

Anyway another bad week for me.  I don't think I ever picked more than two correct players except this last weekend picking three.  :/

I think I'll take my time next time and get them in at the last minute when I get more info.  Time to take this more seriously...  Cheesy




Pedro Neto, No Goalscorer for Palace-Fulham, Alvarez, No Goalscorer for Brentford-Everton, Salah, Jesus, Isak

Nice call on having no goals scored in the Palace vs Fulham match.  I'm thinking the same in their match vs Cheslea...  From a betting perspective prolly even go for Fulham draw no bet at decent odds which I think could be a tad over 2.00.  Haven't checked yet.

Anyway, looks like Trofo doesn't want to share his trade secrets.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy.  Smart!

@tokeweed as the premier league is settling now we know that these player’s will regularly score i.e. Halland, Salah, Son, Wilson, Ferguson so whenever possible these player’s should definitely be selected. Further these 3 are improving and they can be selected too i.e. Isak, Nunez and Saka however do note that they’re yet to go on a goal scoring streak so do your research before selecting them.

Australia posted a massive total of 352 in loss of 7 wickets in 50 overs in the third ODI against India with the help of fifties from their top four batters David Warner score 54 runs, Mitchell Marsh played an outstanding innings of 96 runs in 84 balls unfortunately miss his well deserved century by 4 runs. Steve Smith also score a half century 74 runs in 61 balls and Marnus Labuschagne played a beautiful inning of 72 runs in just 58 balls and reach Australia total to 350 plus run that a big challenge for India. Jasprit Bumrah picked 3 wickets and Kuldeep Yadav picked 2 wickets. I think India will chase down total of 353 runs beacuse they have best batting line and clean sweep Australia with 3-0
Australia performed exceptionally well in the third ODI against India, putting up a massive total. Australian batters were focused, got big total with fifties from the top order, though their middle order didn't perform as expected. Anyway, 352 still enough to defend with their quality bowling lineup. But Australian bowlers need to step up, taking regular wickets. If they don't, India might successfully chase down this total, confirmed 3-0 clean sweep against Australia.

Australia's top order performed brilliantly today. All four batsmen in the top order have collected more than 50. Mitchell Marsh top scored for Australia with 96 runs. Australia's collection was 90 runs in the first 10 overs. In the end, the team gave a huge target of 353 runs. However, even if the target of 353 runs is given, it cannot be said that Australia will win. They also have the possibility of defeat. Because Indian batsmen are in very good rhythm now. Indian batsmen are able to play big innings. In 12 overs, India scored 78 runs, India lost 1 wicket. Rohit Sharma remains unbeaten with 57 runs off just 38 balls.

@laurenB7742 even if Australia loses this match then too they won’t be much disappointed because all their top batsmen have picked up form right at the start of the World Cup hence they’ll be able to take lots of positives from this match. Furthermore is it just me or anyone feeling nostalgic about seeing Rohit and Virat bat and remember the old days when these two used to dominate the opposite team’s together and on that note I feel that if they both can survive till the 30th over then team India will be cruising towards an easy win.

Nepal vs Magnolia

What great performance by the Nepal team. Means really 315 runs target in 20 overs. What a great performance. Really appreciate the batting of Kushal Malla. He made 137 runs on 50 balls with remain not out. This was a huge target for Mangolia team.
After that Nepal bowled well and they collected all wickets of Mangolia team on 41 runs and 13 overs. Great performance Nepal team. Smiley
In this match Nepal set a remarkable record by scoring 314 score in loss of 3 wickets in 20 overs. Kushal Malla made an astonishing 137 Not aout off 50 balls, while Dipendra Singh Airee contributed 52 unbeaten off just 10 balls.Mongolia team all out in just 41 runs in 13.1 overs and Nepal won this match by 273 runs. This match witnessed a historic moment as Dipendra Singh Airee scored the fastest half century in T20 with just 9 deliveries, breaking the record of Yuvraj Singh. Nepal batsmen Kushal Malla achieved the fastest century in International cricket in just 34 balls. Nepal total of 314 runs in 20 overs became the highest target ever set in T20 International cricket.

@Cheema02 Nepal proved one thing yesterday that nothing is impossible in T20 cricket and with their performance they have unlocked an historic feat that even established team’s have yet failed to achieve. Lastly I sincerely hope that they’ll continue to perform well now because after this performance expectations will be raised and hopefully they can thrive under pressure.

India VS Pakistan

The final match between India and Australia will be played today. India is leading the series 2-0, odds are favoring another win today. If India wins today then it will be a complete whitewash, the Rohit led Indian team has already won the Asia Cup 2023. Today we would see the same team playing against the Australian side. Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Starc will be playing for the Australian side today, which makes the team complete. The match starts in just a few minutes from now, weather shows rain today in Rajkot. I am hoping we will be able to watch the full game with some rain interruption.

@pakhittheboss I just read that team India only has 13 player’s to pick from due to injuries and player’s being rested and there’s also viral fever running in the Indian camp so hopefully they can pick a strong team which can defeat Australia. Lastly this match will also be important for Rohit and Kohli as they need to show to all the team’s that they’re ready for the World Cup and if they can score well in this game then it’ll definitely boost team India’s odds of winning the World Cup.

Incidentally, after Harry Kane left, Tottenham's game began to change to what it is now. For me it's not because of that, but because of the arrival of a new coach. Tottenham's game now is similar to the game when Mauricio Pochettino was still coaching. After Pochettino left for PSG, Tottenham's game was unstable, including in the hands of Mourinho and Conte.
The effects of Ange Postecoglou as a coach and James Maddison I think are very different. Tottenham's playing philosophy is starting to be interesting to watch.
It is true that there are differences in Spurs game, including their playing philosophy, it is difficult to express but it can be seen from the way they play. Now Son can even be said to be Harry Kane's replacement striker. Son has more freedom to act as an executor and his role at Spurs is as a mastermind of attack strategy. True or not, Ange Postecoglou presence at Spurs proves that even without Harry Kane, the squad can still perform extraordinary. Urging Spurs fans to move on from Kane and Ange Postecoglou brings something new.

@bitleap I have watched Tottenham play this season and they have massively improved their game and to be honest I had no idea about their coach but now I feel that he’s in the league of Pep and Klopp. Furthermore Son has made it his personal mission to carry Tottenham to the finish line this season and while I knew he was good from his past display’s but now he’s unlocked a new version of himself and lastly I believe that he’ll only continue to improve as this season progresses ahead.

Al-Nassr FC did not need captain Cristiano Ronaldo to beat Ohod. The Portuguese striker was rested and didn't travel for the game. Goals from Sadio Mané,  Seko Fofana, Anderson Talisca, Ayman Ahmed, and Sami Al-Naji devastated Ohod.  The first half ended in a one-all draw and I thought the game might end with a slim win by any side. But Al-Naasr came up with a good plan of attack that made them create more chances and utilize them. Al-Hilal dominated the game and had a massive ball possession but the goal didn't come as expected. But the breakthrough came through Ruben Neves in the 64th minute. Al-Hilal goal was allowed by the video referee in the 73rd minute, but the single goal was enough to give Al-Hilal. Al Jabalain defended very well and they proved that they could stand a quality team like Al-Hilal.
It's a good thing Ronaldo was rested so he'll be fit to play in their league match, Ronaldo is not very young anymore and could loss form due to fatigue so sidelining him for the match a way of keeping him fit and it's also proved that Al-Nassr could win a match without Ronaldo, cause alot of people feel the team is nothing without him,Mane is another very good player people are forgetting at Al-Nassr, since his arrival to the team, he's been very impressive and has helped the team  either scoring goals or assisting Ronaldo.


@QueenVera resting Ronaldo is a tried and tested strategy and even Zidane did that while managing him at Real Madrid and if I’m correct he even performed better once he was back hence I expect him to score more goals when he’s back. Also I strongly believe that Al-Naasr is now no longer solely dependent on Ronaldo because they have got quality player’s who can effectively fill in for Ronaldo like we saw in this match.

I previously said here that we can not blame Onana and I think he is a great goalkeeper, its just that Man United defense failed to provide a wall against the opponent. now thinking realistically, a goalkeeper without a big wall being attacked several times will definitely have difficulty warding off the ball that comes towards him. lets take an example from several incidents in the past, such as a goalkeeper blocking the ball from falling and the opponent kicking the ball again but the defender strongly blocked the ball.

Manchester united problem isn't their goalkeeper, the faults is from the defense because looking at Onana first few games at Manchester united and that of De Gea, Onana has had a better performance because he has faced more shots and saved more shots although he has conceded more and that's became the defense aren't working and allowing the other side have more opportunity to score. If I'm not mistaking, De Gea faced few shots in his last few games and conceded more goals. Onana is a great goal keeper that's also good with his feet and that's why Erik ten Hag went after him because he wanted a football that the ball gets played from the back and progress to the front. Manchester united just needs to work on their defenses and they'll have a good chance of competing for the champion league this season.

No chance for PSG to win UCL trophy but the club may at least able to go to the quarter final of UCL. I meant the capability owned by PSG is still far from reaching final of UCL. City was never lose in any competitions as well as intermilan. If we compare those clubs with PSG and the gap is very big.
PSG was still inconsistent, and it can only rely on mbappe at this moment. I see no chance for PSG to go to the final. Quarter final is more than enough for PSG at this moment

I won't write any team off yet except the smaller teams which PSG isn't one of them. One player is capable of changing the fate of a team in the champions league. Mbappe might just get a run that he scores in every champions league game and increase the chances of PSG winning it. Ronaldo did it when he was at Real Madrid and lifted the trophy for them. The quarter finals is also a good results but they have gotten to that stages many times and it won't be what they'll be looking to achieve this season. The other teams aren't playing that crazy that you'll think the PSG teams can't defeat them. It's only Manchester city that I can say they can defeat every other teams in the competition this season because after losing some important players, its looking like the team became stronger instead of weak.

@CryptopreneurBrainboss I completely disagree about Onana because while the defence did fail him few of the goals he conceded were too simple and a goal keeper of his caliber should have stopped them and for now he needs to step up and at least do basic duties well. Furthermore Ronaldo had an amazing team behind him and Mbappe is selfish and there’s not much unity among PSG player’s hence I doubt that Mbappe alone can fire them to champions league glory.

Last year, Arsenal looked like favourites, but they were eliminated in the later rounds. Liverpool seem to be the favorites this year. I hope they won't be eliminated in the following rounds and can make it to the final. The favorites of the European league cup can always change because very strong teams came from UCL last year. A similar situation may occur this year. Of course, Liverpool is a team that can easily beat any team that finished third in their group in the UCL.

Regardless of right or wrong, I don't think Arsenal is making the Europa League their main priority. Arsenal focused on competing for the English Premier League title last season and did not focus too much on the Europa League.
Liverpool is the favorite for the Europa League this season because other teams are not that prominent except Ajax, Roma and Marseille.
This season, Liverpool will probably ignore several domestic competitions and focus on two competitions, namely the English Premier League and the European League.

Even though Liverpool is the favorite team in this league, I think this is only temporary because all the differences will occur when some of the strong teams currently in the UCL move down to the Europa League.

@AprilioMP Liverpool are going to repeat what Arsenal did last year i.e. focus on winning the premier league and thus I won’t be surprised if they get knocked out of the Europa League at some stage. Furthermore I don’t consider Liverpool the favourites to win this league and my two favourite teams to win this competition are Roma and West Ham and I’ll also add Sevilla to this list if they drop down to the Europa League.
