Manchester United's defence may be a bit weak. But their midfield and attack are very strong. Every player in midfield and attack is talented. Even then they are not able to play well. This is probably due to their bad match strategy. If the match strategy changes, maybe their attack will become stronger and will be able to perform well on a regular basis.
Are you sure with what you have just said in bold? There is no significant change in their midfield and forward till now. Looking at the fact of the result last season, their midfield and forward were bad. Even in their 1st match this season is also really bad. They have changed coaches for several times, means they have changed strategy for several times as well while no significant changes on that positions but what was the result? Most were the same, and I think the only way to make them better is to make at least 50% change of their current squad. If we look at individual players, we can agree that the defense and midfield of Manchester United are quite strong. They cannot play together, but that's another story. As individual players have already proven themselves in another club. But when they joined Manchester United, they weren't able to perform well. A big reason for that is obviously the management of Manchester United. The players are also obviously not happy playing for Manchester United. They would rather play for any other team playing in the Europa League right now. With that attitude, Manchester United is not very likely to win many matches, let alone win matches convincingly. Ten Hag got it all wrong against Brighton. He doesn’t understand the premier league teams too well. I was expecting Eriksen to sit in the midfield with both Fred and Mctominay as the press resistant midfield to support them in recycling possession and helping them to hold down the ball because of how Brighton had lineup with 4 ball playing midfielders in the midfield. Instead he decided to play in as a false 9, leaving Bruno in the midfield with them. It just didn’t go as plan. They should revisit their tactics this weekend and see how they can grind out result in Brentford.
It is unlikely that the false nine formations will work with this team composition. I also don’t think that they have a proper player who would be able to play as the false 9. It is actually unbelievable that he tried this formation in the opening match. I believe a standard of 4-3-3 would have been a lot better instead of false 9.

Among the first 5 batsmen in the West Indies squad, none other than Shamarh Brooks has played well. Boorks scored 42 runs off 43 balls, with a strike rate of less than 100. Batting like this against a big target like 186 is not possible to win. On the other hand, experienced batsmen like Hetmyre returned to the dressing room after collecting only 2 runs. Until the West Indies batsmen can get back on track, we will continue to see poor performances from them.
What do you expect from West Indies? They used to be good in the T20 format. But given their recent performances, I have doubt about that as well. The Kiwis had some classy batsmen such as Kane Williamson and Devon Conway. But even then, the West Indian bowlers conceded too many runs. Their inconsistency is surprising. Obed McCoy was smashed all around the park, days after he had his 6-wicket haul against India. When are we going to witness some consistent performance from the West Indians? New Zealand won the first T20 against the West Indies. I am not trying to blame the West Indies here because they did try their hardest. The problem for the West Indies was that they could not play Mitchell Santner. That was the reason why they lost the match. The problem for the West Indies of not being able to play spin bowlers has been hanging on for a long time now. It is evident that they could not fix the problem even now. West Indies have reliable power heaters but as long as they don’t improve in that bowling department they are not able to win T20 matches against the bigger opponents. Now they will have to win two T20 matches back to back against New Zealand to claim this T20 series. And I really don’t think they will be able to do that.

The Ten Hag will now need to pick players who can easily fit into United's squad. At the same time, Ten Hag needs to change its match strategy. United's match strategy is not good. Their attacking players are not playing well. Ten Hag should address internal issues first. I think a completely new team would improve United's performance.
True, indeed the internal problems at Manchester United must first be resolved by Ten Hag, because it can make them better for the next step. If their basic problem isn't solved, I don't think they'll be any better off in the future. If he manages to overcome that, I believe he will be able to bring about a big change for Manchester United. Honestly I don’t know why their attacking players are not performing. It seems the system doesn’t allow them fire up. Manchester United failed to show enough urgency and were passive throughout the game. Despite consisting of creative outlets such as Bruno Fernandes, Christian Eriksen, and Jadon Sancho in the starting lineup, they failed to show enough potency and create chances to disrupt Brighton. Ten Hag go against this weekend and if it does work out, then he should change his pattern of play. Manchester United's defence may be a bit weak. But their midfield and attack are very strong. Every player in midfield and attack is talented. Even then they are not able to play well. This is probably due to their bad match strategy. If the match strategy changes, maybe their attack will become stronger and will be able to perform well on a regular basis.

West Indies brought some hurt Odean Smith and Romario Shepherd The batsman showed New Zealand some damage to their bowling page. Although they lost to the West Indies by a narrow margin, their performance in the last over was a very poor one for New Zealand. New Zealand played very well on their home ground Due to which I got to see their team win.
What a performance from the duo, Shepherd have managed to score 31 of 16 balls and Smith have scored 27 of 12 balls. If the middle order have managed to score little more, this could've been a win for West Indies. As said, New Zealand bowlers could've struggled to restrict this duo from scoring. Being on the home ground is really an advantage and the teams will be making more plans for the second T20. The match was not one-sided. In the end West Indies came close to victory but could not win. They lost the match by just 13 runs. They have the power to cover any run in T20. But they failed to get that run against New Zealand while Guptill did not do well at the beginning on behalf of New Zealand, others performed well. Conway, Williamson and Neesham have been able collect good score. A lot of runs against any team can change the fact that West Indies have the skills but mainly the opening batsmen. But the early batsmen could not perform very well. Specially Brooks , heitmar and Nicolas pooran don't play well. Brooks 42 runs within 43 balls faced, heitmar out only collecting 2 runs . But Roamriao Shepherd and odean Smith played well but unfortunately they couldn't victory over newzeland. If they faced more than one over more , it would possible to get victory Among the first 5 batsmen in the West Indies squad, none other than Shamarh Brooks has played well. Boorks scored 42 runs off 43 balls, with a strike rate of less than 100. Batting like this against a big target like 186 is not possible to win.

After failed to get Antony from Ajax then Manchester United will looking for new forward player and recently they linked to Watford player Ismaila Sarr and seems they had good chance to get Sarr because after relegated to championship league Watford has decided to sell some of their players and Ismaila Sarr confirmed into their sell lists but price tag for him was quite expensive 40 millions pounds
Ten Haag also have three new names to bring to Old Trafford, they are intensively making player transfers because the first game was quite disappointing and it was a sign that they had to buy some new players who could contribute in the next match. Maybe Watford will lower the price so they can be sold because retaining a main player when the club is relegated can be a burden on the club's finances The Ten Hag will now need to pick players who can easily fit into United's squad. At the same time, Ten Hag needs to change its match strategy. United's match strategy is not good. Their attacking players are not playing well. Ten Hag should address internal issues first. I think a completely new team would improve United's performance.

In this case what you say is true, but before saying Barcelona are in strong competition with Madrid first they must solve their current problems because there are indeed many problems that they have to solve quickly such as registering their 5 new players, solving problems with De Jong, as well as finalizing Raphinha's finances with Leeds. When it is finished, they can be considered as strong competitors for the title. As for Atletico, it will still be fifty-fifty in my opinion, depending on Griezman and Morata whether they can give a good performance there because otherwise they will probably be the same as last season.
maybe I'm a little behind in the transfer of raphinha. So as you posted if Barcelona should settle Raphinha finances with Leeds United, but does Barcelona owe Raphinha transfer from Leeds United? As far as I know, Barcelona paid for the complete transfer of Raphinha with the deal they made when they made their offer to Leeds United. Barcelona do have some issues that need to be resolved before next season starts and those issues appear to be just Financial Fair Play. According to the news that I am the current Leeds owner Andrea Radrizzani some time ago spoke to The Athletic where he confirmed that Raphinha's transfer fee had not been paid by Barcelona because Barcelona's condition was not too good. Currently Radrizzani will only wait for them to pay off the purchase of Raphinha until 2 September. If the transfer is not completed then indeed they will take this to legal channels. Even though Barcelona are in a financial crisis, they spend more than necessary to buy players. They now have 9 strikers in their squad. Barcelona management should have sold some strikers to cut costs. But Barcelona did not sell any of their squad players. However, maybe Barcelona will be able to pay Raphinha's sale price before September. Laporta has some more important decisions to make very quickly.

I think that this season is going to be a season that Atletico Madrid are struggling to keep up while Barcelona and Real Madrid are competing hard for the La Liga title. Because I see nearly zero change about Atletico Madrid now. It is more difficult for them unless they add really qualified players to the team. I don't think Simeone would change his tactics much either.
Atletico Madrid can still enliven the competition for the La Liga title even though Atletico Madrid did not add really quality players and Simeone did not change tactics. But I still believe that Simeone will provide the best tactics for Atletico Madrid next season in order to compete with the two big teams (Barcelona and Real Madrid) for the title in La Liga. Atlético Madrid is not a weak team. But the battle for the La Liga title will only be between Barcelona and Real Madrid. The likes of Sevilla and Atletico Madrid will only continue to fight for Champions League qualification. The Atletico Madrid squad had several weaknesses last season. But the Atlético management did not take the necessary steps to strengthen themselves. So I don't think Atletico Madrid are favourites for the title.

Ireland vs Afghanistan
The first match of the 5-match T20 series between Ireland and Afghanistan will be played today. Ireland's batting line-up is very strong. We got proof of this in their last series. On the other hand, Afghanistan's spin bowlers can be said to be one of the best in the world. They have great bowlers like Rashid Khan in their squad. So this series is expected to be very competitive. As Afghanistan players are more experienced than Ireland. So maybe the Afghanistan team will win the series.

The struggle between the decision of being your own boss and working under someone is becoming more difficult to make as economic situations become tougher. From evaluation around me, self proclaimed entrepreneurs are quitting entrepreneurship because of difficulty in maintaining a business and reduced sales due to reduced purchasing power from people, an effect of the economic situation. Office workers on the other hand who also have been on one salary grade for a long time now are becoming fed up with how their monthly salary is no longer sufficient to secure a comfortable lifestyle for a month also due to the higher cost of living. What do you think is the way forward?
I often hear people say, Employees spend according to their income, but entrepreneurs earn by realizing expenses. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) However, I agree with you, In the current economic recession, the upward movement of commodities and the increase in oil prices have had an impact at all levels. The standard of living of those who are salaried officers of certain grades has become really miserable. If there are no capable consumers, then who will buy the products of entrepreneurs? But yes, in the current economic downturn, I will give more importance to entrepreneurship than jobs, because if educated people become entrepreneurs instead of running after jobs, then the problem of unemployment will be removed and the sector in which they will become entrepreneurs will be greatly improved.

Manchester City started the EPL season very well, they won the match against WHU by scoring 2 goals without conceding. The unique fact is, according to match statistics, Manchester City made 14 shots and only 2 shots on target which means Haaland is the real hero for Manchester City in this match. He proved that he was not only playing well in the Bundesliga, but in the EPL as well.
He was scoring all of goals for the manchester city. it seems like this can be a signal he may become a very strong candidate to get top scorer in the EPL for this season. The performance of manchester city was growing even better. If haaland can always at the top performance and manchester city can easily beat any club. I hope that sometime i will see manchester city can against barcelona in UCL but this time manchester city become the strongest candidate for club that was potentially winning the current season. I consider that liverpool is the only worthy competitor for manchester city. Chelsea and another big club are still under perform. Arsenal looks good at this moment too. I'm absolutely blown away by City's performance. As usual, dominating the game from beginning to end. The money you spend on Erling Haaland is well worth it. A huge win, a huge three points. There can be no question that Erling Haaland is one of the most promising upcoming world class soccer players. His legendary status at City begins there. That's really impressive how Pep is turning City into such a powerful team and playing such beautiful football. It's likely that Man City will remain at the top this season, and the rest of the clubs will follow. all fans are certainly amazed by their performance of Haaland. even the coach revealed himself that Haaland has a good mentality for his first debut in the Premier League. Man City seems to make a purchase that is commensurate with what will be obtained. good start for City, hopefully, they will come up with consistent performance. Haaland made his debut with Manchester City quite well. He scored two goals in the debut match. Most importantly, Haaland has adapted well to the City team. City players support Haaland. Had Haalnad not suffered injury, he would have been the Premier League's top scorer this season. Manchester City coach Guardiola is quite optimistic about Haaland.

The quality of the team has improved significantly compared to last year. You can see Neymar prioritizing passing to Messi over anyone else. I watched the full match, but I thought Messi would not score again with only assists but in the 80th minute, he scored two goals, and the second goal was Messi's first overhead in his career. It was a fun game.
Lionel Messi has regained his lost masterclass performance. He was almost everywhere in the pitch; attacking and winning loosed balls. His partnership with Neymar was very productive and we saw the results. My only fear is Kylian Mbappé. With these three world class players in one team, would there be synergy like we say in the match against Clermont Foot? I hope Paris Saint-Germain would not regret keeping Neymar because of his constant competition with Mbappé? If these three players would drop personal ambition and pursue the collective goal of PSG, then the club might achieve more this season. Ligue 1 is theirs, and its uncontested. The issue has always been their run in the Champions League. Club's ambitions are to win the Champions league but they seem to be failing every time, early after the group stages. If all 3 superstars up front stay fit throughout the season. They might have a chance, finally. Their ambition should be at least to reach the finals of Champions League, if not winning it. Last season PSG management spent a lot of money to build their team. Their only aim was to perform well in the Champions League. But even though the team had many star players, the understanding between the players was not good. So, despite performing well in Ligue 1, their performance in the Champions League was poor. If Galtier can improve the understanding between the players then PSG will be able to do well in the Champions League next season.

Bayern Munich is unlikely to sell a player who is a mainstay in their squad, so far Leroy Sane's contribution has been very good and he has got a guarantee in the main squad, I think Munich will not sell Sane without any reason. Manchester United's mistake was too slow in the transfer market, so they had difficulty finding players who matched the team's needs. Now Manchester United have to pay dearly for their mistakes with a defeat in the first match, after seeing the results of the Manchester United vs Brighton match it will be very difficult for Ten Hag's team to be able to compete with other big teams this season.
I partly agree with you here. I don't think that he has a guarantee to be in the starting eleven anymore this was already apparent in the first Bundesliga match yesterday where Gnabry, Musiala, Mane and Müller were starting in the offense. I think Sane came in only for the last 25 minutes, so i think he really has to fight now for a position in the starting eleven. That being said, i am pretty sure he does not want to leave Bayern Munich to go to Manchester United. ManU is just not a really attractive club anymore at the moment for the big stars. They have not qualified for the Champions League which is a big disadvantage if you want to sign new high profile players. All right, I think more than moving to Manchester United, Leroy Sané is going to be more interested in proving himself to Bayern Munich's authority. He is going to be fighting for his place in the starting 11. Even though he did not start the first match for Bayern Munich this season I believe he is still a very potent player for the team. And Manchester United really does not have anything right now to attract high-profile players. At first, we thought Manchester United would bring some players because Cristiano Ronaldo is on the team but now we know that players really don't care about that. No player is willing to demote himself from the Champions League to the Europa League.

Bangladesh VS Zimbabwe
The second ODI will be played today. Liton Das has been already declared unfit due to a hamstring injury and he might not be fit for the Asia Cup. The pitch will support the batters and with Liton Das out Bangladesh would need a good replacement batter for him. Sikandar Raza's batting was incredible in the first match I am expecting the same performance in this match too. It is an important match for Bangladesh as If they lose this match then they lose the series
If Bangladesh loses today's match then Bangladesh will face many problems. So he has to win this match even if he is in trouble. If they draw, they will lose this series tie. There is a lot of pressure on Bangladesh now, will they be able to win today's match. A few of his players are missing in today's match. It will be very difficult for Bangladesh to win this match I never imagined that Bangladesh will show such a bad performance against Zimbabwe. In the past, we have seen Bangladesh always perform well against Zimbabwe. But they lost in the T20 series. Bangladesh lost the first ODI despite giving away a target of more than 300. Today's pitch is also batting friendly. If they want to win, Bangladesh will have to give a target of more than 320. Otherwise, the Bangladesh team will suffer a shameful defeat in the ODI series like the T20 series. I want to say, it is a do-or-die match for the Bangladesh team. They have to win this match by any means. Won an ODI series brilliantly against West Indies a few days ago. It is unbelievable that they will perform so poorly against a team like Zimbabwe. Bangladesh lost the previous match only because of the inefficiency of the bowlers. At the same time, Mushfiqur collected 17 runs off maybe 16 balls in the last 5 overs. We don't expect such a silly performance from an experienced batsman like him. Here Mushfiqur Rahim being a top order batsman has basically collected 20 to 25 runs less for his half century. Moreover, the failure of Bangladeshi bowlers is another major reason. Bangladesh lost the first match due to some fielding errors. Let's wait and see how much Bangladesh can catch themselves in the second match. Bangladeshi batsmen could not play well in the second match as well. Bangladesh's collection in the first 20 overs was 116 runs. And Bangladesh's innings ended on 290 runs. If the bowlers perform well, 290 runs will be enough to win. But if the bowlers show bad performance like in the first match then as usual Bangladesh is going to be defeated in this match as well.

Hansa Rostock - Arminia Bielefeld Rostock will try to steal 3 points but it will not be easy to get it from Bielefeld, who is currently in an insecure zone, possibility this match will end in a draw in my opinion both teams to score is yes. This match between the both usually creates more than 4 goals but this time it's below that, what do you think guys?
Hansa Rostock vs Arminia BielefeldThe match has just started. The match has only been underway for eight minutes. Both teams will be looking for a win in this match. So I am expecting goals from both teams. But I am not sure how many. I am also not going to be surprised if this match ends up in a draw. If I had to guess, I would say that the score is going to be 1–1 at the end of the match. The season has just begun and both teams will be looking to get an early advantage. Hansa has only one win this season so far. And on the other hand, Armenia has yet to win a single game. So I believe Bielefeld will be more determined to win this match.

I think this match will be very competitive. Dortmund is a strong team. But we look forward to seeing how they perform this season without their main striker Haaland. Leverkusen on the other hand is a good enough team. Their forward lineup is quite strong. My guess is that the match is more likely to be a 2-2 draw. Otherwise, I want to keep the Leverkusen team ahead. Leverkusen's overall performance is good without star players.
First match for Dortmund against with Bayern Leverkusen on Bundesliga and looks very interested because both team success finish on top fourth position standing last year, I think Dortmund with home match looks favorite than Bayern Leverkusen. Have different player composition with Dortmund right now exactly on central forward, after losing Erling Haaland and injury got by new central forward Sébastien Haller I think Dortmund will use young central forward Youssoufa Moukoko. He not really bad for central forward position and I see he has potential to be young star player for Dortmund in this season. Dortmund's starting 11 forward consists of Malen-Moukoko-Adeyemi. If Sebastien Haller had been in the squad, Dortmund would have been a bit stronger. In the last match of Dortmund vs Leverkusen, Leverkusen won 5-2. In the last 5 matches between these two teams, Leverkusen scored 15 goals and Dortmund scored 13. So I expect many goals in today's match. If Dortmund wants to win, their strikers must perform well. However, I personally I want to keep Leverkusen bit ahead in this match.

In Tottenham vs Southampton match, I expected Tottenham to win and bet on Tottenham's victory. However, Tattenham conceded a goal in just 12 minutes. But it didn't take long for Tottenham's players to level the match at 1-1. At the end of 90 minutes, Tottenham won a great 4-1.
Newcastle secured a comfortable 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest. Newcastle is more organized this season than last season. Perhaps they will be able to stay in the top 10 of the points table this season

The most interesting game today is for sure Dortmund against Leverkusen and i expect a win for Dortmund.
I think this match will be very competitive. Dortmund is a strong team. But we look forward to seeing how they perform this season without their main striker Haaland. Leverkusen on the other hand is a good enough team. Their forward lineup is quite strong. My guess is that the match is more likely to be a 2-2 draw. Otherwise, I want to keep the Leverkusen team ahead. Leverkusen's overall performance is good without star players.

What a performance from Sikandar Raza? I am feeling really sad about him. If he was playing for any other team, then he would have been famous all across the world. Unfortunately, he plays for a shitty cricket board which mistreats its players. Anyway, now he is 36 years old and at the most he has another two years or so with him. But he will always be remembered as one of the classy players Zimbabwe ever had. And regrading Bangladesh, I am really fed up. These guys can't win abroad. Even against a weak team like Zimbabwe.
Sikandar Raza had played an important innings and managed to win against Bangladesh. I'm really disappointed about the performance of Bangladesh. Totally poor performance from Bangladeshi players. They have good players to win but lacking of knowledge and experience. The main heroes behind this victory are Sikander Raja and Innocent Kaia. Zimbabwe lost two openers for just 6 runs. It was unimaginable that they would then return to the truck in such a grand manner. Anyway congratulations to the Zimbabwean team. They played very well. Their performance has improved a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if Zimbabwe win the ODI series like the T20 series.
