I don't see any reason why you have to say "working" has it's advantage and disadvantage when every man in this world must work. Working isn't limited to working under someone or a company, but trading, business, freelancing and any other jobs that could give you money.

Gambling, on the other hand only make gambler keep losing their money, it's completely a wrong thought if gambling is a source of money.
It's totally wrong to make gambling a source of income as it can be very risky and can cause some level of frustration especially when you have series of losses, gambling should be on the side and be used for fun and better for entertainment but to use as a primary source of income is not ideal because it can't guarantee you money at any time but will rather take it most time.

It is advised you get a proper paying job then do not Use gamble as the source of income, you can at times use residual money from your income to place bets and if it turns a winner you be fine but if it turns out loss you may not have to border as it was something you could afford to loose but when you add desperation or probably budget and make plans with all hopes on gamble money you tend to loose more.

Of course as gambling has it's advantages and disadvantages so dose work has it's advantages and disadvantages aswell,  but then it's important and very essential you gat a job regardless of it's advantages and disadvantages because you wouldn't dwell on these disadvantages and decide not to work and stay idle, that way you wouldn't have the fund to even consider gamble an entertainment.

-snip
Injury is one major sad incidents that no player would wished to experience specifically when in good shape. Barcelona got hit this time, injury finally moved in the direction of Robert Lewandowski who's the top striker for the team, his absence in games will affects them majorly because he's always available to net goals for the team. Perhaps he have solid replacement, with the presence of the new player João Félix, this is his prime to exhibits the very best performance, proof to the fans about his incredible qualities and also enhancing the frontlines of the Blaugrana.
previously I said that dont worry too much, it looks like Lewandowski is not too serious and Xavi will give this player more rest to really recover completely and at least 2 or 3 matches. even if Lewandowski is injured, there are still many other players who are able to replace Lewandowski, even Felix is also able to replace him and with Torres being able to maintain the quality of Barcelona performance.
In the upcoming match, it looks like Lewandowski will not be able to appear and will prefer to heal his injury, but Xavi already has a plan to beat Granada.
I think Felix can be a perfect replacement for lewandoski  untill his return as Felix has already to proven to be good enough I that position the last time he was futures, he performed excellently even without a goal his moves and performance was well noticed by everyone. Barcelona is very much in a good shape no to worry or border the possible outcome they could get from this match.

Although it's really sad that lewandoski have to stay this long injured but then we are very hopeful he will be playing in the next three games but will not be playing against grananda. Granada has not won a single game this season but they did had an incredible come back against almeria last week, they were three goals down and by the 85th minute of the second half they were able to get an equalizer.

But this doesn't mean they are good enough to take on Barcelona or get a draw from Barcelona they will only defend to reduce the number of goals they may concede but then Barcelona is capable enough to get pass their defense and make sure to get some good number of goals, Granada would be hosting but it's not a guarantee they would win as Barcelona is way too good than they are.

You are right borovicho, the last game is unpredictable, and I don't think that Sassuolo will win the match. I will bet the opposite of the third game, but the rest two is quite a good prediction and I believe that no matter how difficult the match will be Inter and Napoli will win their matches, since they can use home advantage. I don't think that the match will be difficult for Inter and Mapoli to win because they are both stronger than their opponent, which makes them the favourite to win the game.
just making a prediction, I think Lecce will win this match even though Sassuolo beat Inter, but that just unexpected luck In this match I chose not to bet because these two teams could give a surprise because in terms of performance these two teams are more or less stable.
I hope you guys bet with a slightly safe option.
Checking the H2H Lecce has more chances to win but then I think sasuolo has more need for a win in this game and may want to use that energy to get a win, they happened to defeat Juventus and intermilan recently and I think the has got them boosted enough to be able to want to face any team especially those whose strength fall within the asem range as theirs .

Lecce is playing from home which may sound more like an advantage for them but I don't think it will really be so much of an advantage for them if they don't work on a better tactics or strategy to win this game, although they happen to be the bookies favourite but then they are not mine as I see them differently for this game. Although they have not recoded much losses at home but then this may be another they will be adding to the records.

It's going to be a tough game as both teams would want to get a complete three point so they will both have to be hard on each other sasuolo will press hard their forward to get goal will lecce will most likely be defensive as they wouldn't want to conceive goals at home or probably get another loss at home as the have already suffered one at home, most likely it will be adraw game .

Roma are doing really well in the Europa League at least. Because their start to the Serie A has been really worrying so far. But they are expected to make improvement no matter what. Therefore the Europa League is also very important for them. Mourinho must be still having nightmares about the finale in the previous season.

So far they have started the group stage really strongly. I think they would finish as the leader as well. The most difficult part will be after the group stage. We don't know what teams will be coming League too. No matter what they must be aiming the title once again.
Mourinho has always loved international tournaments and even if in the domestic championship his teams did not play well, in the Champions League usually his teams have always played well and consistently.
Roma have not the most difficult group, and Servette is seemingly in 9th place in the Swiss championship, so it is clear that they had no special chances and Roma quietly got three points, and Lukaku scored again. By the way Lukaku set a record, he scored in 13 consecutive games in the Europa League.

I think that along with Liverpool, Roma is now one of the main favorites in the Europa League.
Roma did put up an excellent performance and had a deserving win as they dominated the game and got a good goal difference over their opponent in the match, Iukaku had a goal in the game which was an impressive one, obviously this group stage will be somehow easy for them but they will be facing tougher teams in the future so they will have to get prepared.

Servette tried but they still don't seem like a very good contender with Mourinho's team as he has a better strategy which is working for him and giving results. Although Roma has not been doing really well in their previous games in their local league, recently they even suffered a loss that could have affected their moral but it's really good how they were able to get pas it quickly and won this game.

Lukaku has been really performing very well and I must say Mourinho has know how better to use him and ply in the right position to get the kind of results he desires and it's really working for him. But then I don't really think they could possibly win the Europa but they they would likely get to semi finals, when they will get to meet bigger team like Liverpool their strength will be tested and then we can tell if they will make it beyond the quarter finals.
3145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Signs that indicate you are not addicted to gambling on: October 06, 2023, 11:35:28 AM
There are two easy ways to know that someone is not addicted to gambling, but right now I will list more than two but the first two are the major points to know that someone is not addicted.
  • When the gambler is not too excited about his winnings
  •   When he is not so pained about a loss
  • When they do not so much talk about a particular gamble they missed
  • When he doesn't depend on the money from winning for any project
  • When  they only play with money they budgeted only for gambling
There are some loses that can be very painful in case we don't know. Sometimes we might behave like it is not that painful to the public or to our friends but we can never forget how we were able to get that fund especially when we are not so bouyant financially. The problem mostly comes when we use too much to bet on a particular game without minding if the outcome will be against us or to our own advantage. Gambling need a lots of observation so we can know when we ought to bet and when we don't necessarily need to bet because this alone can cause misfortune.
Knowing when to bet and when not to is a very important aspect of helping some one to not getting addicted, some persons don't know when to these thereby getting addicted, it's very much advised you try not to spend money ment for something else on gambling so you don't start chasing losses and gradually tend towards addiction unknowingly to you.

Controlling how much you spend on gambling also is a means of keep yourself in check to know if you are already addicted or not, if you spend almost half of your income gambling, there maybe possible chances of you getting addicted so maybe you should take a break for a while and rest maybe some other time you can continue because if you allow your sef continue you may loose so much you become addicted.

Responsible gambling still remains key if you must not be addicted. There is a point where you get and think you are not addicted but your are gradually becoming especially when you often use your gambling apps or sites on a daily basis such that they become part of your routine, you may not be spending much on it but then you are becoming addicted unknowingly but if you use them less frequently then most likely you may not be addicted.
3146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: October 06, 2023, 09:16:20 AM
I do not understand how some people can gamble without having a regular income. Gambling is entertainment for those who have money. And after losing this money in the gambler should not change the quality of life. Of course, I have nothing against when a poor man after working a shift at the factory comes to the casino to play dice and drink a mug of beer, but I do not understand when students gamble on their parents' money.
Those students do not understand the value of money as they did nothing in order to earn it, and when you do not understand how difficult it can be to earn any amount of money then it is easy to use it in ways that are not optimal.

So when those students begin to gamble and lose it all they do not really experience the same kind of feelings someone that earns their own money goes through, as the only thing they need to do in order to get more money is to lie to their parents about some unexpected expenses and then receive more money without really deserving it.
These students should be watched closely as most times negligence on the side of their parents as it regards how well they spend the money given them probably to use for themselves or for their academics, parents should always try to hold their children accountable on how they spend the funds given them because these children or students become reckless with funds when they realize they are not held accountable about their spending.

These students find themselves in company of certain friends who may have been exposed to gambling prior to their meeting and they may introduce these student friends to gambling as a means of income to make more money or multiply that which they have so they will be venture into it whith the hope they get to make more money and they really don't get scared of loosing it because they believe it will be replaced by their parents.

Sometimes these students should work so they know how it feels to earn money maybe it would help them curb how much they gamble although some of the students do it because the funds available are usually not enough to meet their needs so they want to multiply it and probably be able to meet their needs but then it's never the best option as gambling is rather best suited for entertainment

Real Madrid are doing just fine in the La Liga this season. We can call this as Bellingham effect also in my opinion. Because since the day he joined the team he has been performing amazingly. Even in Vinicius Junior's absence Bellingham was carrying the team with a big level of contribution with goals. He has been like the main striker of the team.  Grin

Today Real Madrid are going to play a really tough match against Napoli away in the Champions League. It is a quite challenging one for Real Madrid maybe but I expect them to show a solid performance.

While Vinicius and Bellingham are both on the pitch Real Madrid would be really deadly in the attacking line.
With or without their major players, they have established themselves as one of the best leading clubs in the UCL, as well as topping the La Liga table this season. When a team is outstanding, there is not much more they can do except winning games. Real Madrid is a top-notch team that is not intimidated by any opposition. Los Blancos defeated Napoli despite their peak performance with Naples; it was a challenging match for Carlo Ancelotti's side, but they have consistently performed in UCL games; I have optimistic expectations for the squad this season.
Madrid is a very good team that performs really good without so much dependency on any player and that's why they could perform real good regardless of the absence or presence of any player, they have built that formidable strength enough to withstand any form of set back and still pull through with a win or in worse case a draw but they have never seen a draw as an option to be reckoned with.

Real Madrid in the time past and present has been known for their outstanding performance in the champions league games and they aren't doing any less this season although the game against Napoli was one that almost posed a challenge to them because Napoli isn't a weak team and has also been good in performance at the UCL and in their local league.

This season at the UCL I think Madrid have a chance if they continue with this brilliance they exhibit at almost every game, that are very sure of making it past the round of sixteen as they are already to of their group, the return of vini is also another factor to give them a good heads-up in their subsequent games both in the UCL and their local league games.

There has been too much discussion about the Arsenal vs Manchester City match this week that many have forgotten that tomorrow Manchester United will compete again, this time the opponent is Brentford. Statistically in H2H Manchester United is ahead with 3 wins and Brenford only managed to win 1x and that too with a landslide score. Looking at the progress of the two teams so far in the standings, of course Manchester United is a little better but they are too bad for a big EPL team. Meanwhile, Brentford, which is a mediocre team, is not surprised that they have had a bad start to the season by sitting in 14th position. I think this will be a battle for 3 points for each team and of course this will be an important match this week for both teams to determine their next position. Will Manchester United succeed in breaking the series of defeats they suffered in the previous match this time, or will Bentford continue to add to the bad record for the Red Devils by beating them at Old Trafford?
Brentford is currently out of form and in a bad shape such that Manchester united have no excuses but to win them, since over a decade now Manchester united has never been beaten by the bees in their home, the bees have failed to win any game since this season as they have consecutively lost five games ad draw just two keeping them at the 14th position on the standing.

Erik tenhag's squad did suffer another loss during the mid week after they squandered two opportunities and got a send off in the match against Galatasaray, all this mess happened at old Trafford and Erik ten hag was left to accept his team is currently in a messy shape, that added to record of losses. The red devils have lost four of their home matches since this season.

The red devils must make sure to secure Three points from this game so they can still climb up the standings, a win in this game is very necessary for their morale boost because they will be facing stronger team after, all the losses suffered so far may definitely have a way of affecting the players morale but it's in the responsibility of ten hag to get the boys to a morale boost and get the fans to still have some level of confidence in them again.

Most of the English teams who did played a game yesterday won their games and that's a good move for the English side I will say as their representatives in the Europa are doing well although this is just the group stage and they are yet to know who will qualify or crash out... But then I'm sure most of the English teams will make it pass the group stage.

Liverpool did played well last night and had a deserving victory and very importantly got the complete points required for them to be at the top of their group, Liverpool has the potential of winning the league but then they have too many others to tackle already so I think they will find it somehow difficult as they are in the UCL and the EPL aswell which happens to be there own local league.

But wining this will means securing the next UCL ticket but it's not the only option to secure the next UCL ticket as finishing top 3 in the premier league could also secure them a ticket to the next UCL I think Liverpool would most likely use the premier league option but then klop would want to add more trophies to his record so I think he would want to win the Europa as well.

But yes, I don't know in how far ten Hag is involved in transfer decisions and whether he has a lot to say in the club when it comes to player transfers, but there have been some questionable decisions in the recent past.

I don't think he is entirely to blame for Manchester United's poor form. In the past they have spent millions of dollars on players like Jadon Sancho, Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial and they have never benefited from them. So, there is a long history of bad and wrong transfer policy at Manchester United. They are like Chelsea, but not as bad as Chelsea. Smiley I don't think Erik ten Hag has a squad that can compete with his rivals. Manchester United need a lot of transfers and they have almost no chance of winning the Champions League.
Ten hag is very much involved and have a great influence on transfer decision in Manchester united, at the end of last season he was given good amount of money to get players for the team, according to speculations he was given a 100% authority on decision as it regards transfer so he could get the best players he knows he can work with and achieve a good result for the team.

I think ten hag has the full blame when it comes to transfer errors because he was allowed to make choices for the team but sadly his choices has not been able to favour the team enough, or maybe are they new player yet to get used to the teams style and the environment? I really don't think because they have gotten more than enough time to do that already so it's expected by now they have gone passed that stage.

Onana is one of his worse transfer error he did this season, even Maguire hasn't been the best compared to when he was still in his formal team, Martial has even performed better when he was still in Chelsea than he has been in old Trafford, almost all the new signed players are still glorified in the past they are yet to prove something spectacular for the present and Manchester united did spent heavily on them.

It's the Vinius effect. Real Madrid struggled a little when Vini got injured and with his return, there is some boost in the forward power, but this just goes to show that Real Madrid are an injury or two away from being a completely different team
Vinicius surely has a big role in Real Madrid attacking line. When he got injured, Real Madrid has no other left winger that has the same level as him. That's why Real Madrid performance seems decreasing a bit. Although Real Madrid actually has an option (Brahim Diaz) but Ancelotti seems not really like this player. I don't know what the reason is, but it is very unfortunate to see Brahim Diaz situation in Real Madrid.

There is no experienced striker in Real Madrid's squad. Vini is now their  main striker . But I would say don't have  high hopes for Vini. Vini is a talented player it's true . But so far Vini has not been able to prove  himself as a regular scorer. Last season he played in 33 La Liga matches, scoring just 10 goals and  assisting 5. Rodrygo, another Madrid striker, is in a similar situation.  So I don't think Madrid's performance will go to another level now that Vini is back from injury . Real Madrid will still be dependent on the performance of their midfielders. Madrid's performance  will depend on Bellingham-Kross-Modrich's performance.
The return of vini is a thing of joy for Madrid as they have managed to struggle through other games in his absence, but now it going to seem like the struggling days are over as the man for the position is back, maybe this was the reason the strike force of Madrid for once looked like it was very sick and needed replacement, but no I think there will be no need for that.

Vini seems to be the best striker Madrid have but then it's obvious he isn't reliable as he is now an injury prone player, even before the injury he was that outstanding in performance but then he was just fit for the strike force as he was able to score a few goals but then he needs to improve his goal scoring skill as it's needed to help the team as that has been what they lacked the most.

One main purpose the return of vino will definitely serve will be a morale boost for the front line as they can be sure to get goals after making the moves and giving the necessary assist needed and required of them. I hope to see the team perform better than they have done in the past few games, in their next UCL game I hope he will be playing and will definitely deliver them.
3152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Conference League 2023/24 Season on: October 05, 2023, 10:07:24 PM
Bayern Leverkusen won but not with an impressive margin, personally I think they could have done even better because the team the played against is not as good as they when compared H2H, and aswell considering how well Leverkusen has been performing in the bundesliga which is more competitive as compared to this and the local league of their opponent.

I expected the goal margin to be bigger with more difference but they were able to get just one, although they weren't playing from home but then I don't think it was a factor enough to stop them from having a huge victory over molde, they dominated the game and had all the possession through out the game from the first half to the second half.

Same with Liverpool they won with a small margin aswell, most of the bigger teams seem to be doing little with the number of goals they scored in various games in the conference league,. maybe they are most likely not using their full or main squad for this game that's why all this results are been achieved but then the most important thing is that they got the complete points
3153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 05, 2023, 09:42:02 PM
Manchester city have broken their bad losing streak and we all know what that actually means because they will be red hot wanting to gather as much point as they can and one thing about these two teams is that Manchester city always find a way to get the three point over arsenal although arsenal this time around is looking well structured and I think their squad is fully activated and not suffering from injury as the way they were during the two time clash between the two teams .
This is a fairly even match, both teams have almost the same quality of players. Interestingly, the style of play used by Arteta and Guardiola is not much different, they both apply a modern football scheme which really satisfies the audience. Arsenal has big ambitions to beat Manchester City, three points is a fixed price to be realized and I think Arteta has prepared a special strategy to be able to beat Guardiola's troops. I predict Arsenal will be able to win that match.
Certainly every coach will have their own strategy to make sure they get a win in any game they want to play, especially for a game as this there's certainly going to be a strategy set apart for it so as to be able to secure the full point which is the most important thing at the end of the day, but then in as much as arteta is setting a strategy guardiola will definitely not be left behind aswell too.

But then it's important to know that this is not a game where new strategy should be tried out as that may look like too much of a risk to take for a game as crucial as this which will definitely determine their position for the rest of the week and maybe the nearest future, Arteta should only improve his already know strategy and make small amends where necessary.

Manchester city is most likely to win and that's my prediction as contrary to yours because I feel they have a better team strength and they perform well regardless if they are home or away so they may win or possibly get a draw at least but which ever way they will be at advantage if they can secure a point at least or three points.

Liverpool vs Royale Union SG is currently in their first half of the game and Liverpool is yet to get a goal from this game as Liverpool is giving them the needed pressure to get a goal moreover they are not a strong team enough to challenge Liverpool, they are most likely to suffer a loss in this game, I'm anticipating the first half ends with Liverpool leading by a goal.

AS Roma is doing well as they are already a goal ahead in the first halfway of the game, tho the first half hasn't come to an end yet but they are showing superiority enough as they are dominating with possession and morinho could be said to have got what it take to get a win in this game, they have two goal attempts already and a shot on target and they are just about 25minutes into the first half of the game.

The match between Ajax and Athens ended a draw which I want expecting, I felt ajax was better as compared to Athens going by their H2H but then they couldn't secure complete point from them . Athens in their local league are trying but they are not in their best of form to have challenged ajax to a draw although they were at home, maybe it was the morale boost for them to make sure to secure a draw if a win isn't possible
3155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 05, 2023, 07:19:43 PM
Empoli and udinese are two weak teams who needs to fight hard to stay off the red zone as they are both at risk, empoli is already in the red zone with just one team beneath them so they need a win if they must leave the red zone by weekend, udinese is just one point away from the red zone so a loss will bring them down to the red zone and a draw will keep them just a step away.

Both teams needs a win to stay safe, so it's definitely going to he a hard one as neither team will be giving room for the other rather they will be both making it difficult so it may most likely end in a draw, empoli will be playing at home and i am almost tempted to see it as an advantage but then I remembered they are not good even at home as they have managed to secure a win at home just once.

Let the best team win that's my take for this game but then I have a draw bias aswell as all I see is a struggle, there will most likely be a lot of yellow cards as they may result to roughing if any of them ever happen to suffer frustration resulting from not getting a goal or having a draw amidst the match, so to be on the very safe side while placing a bet on this game I advise you place a bet on possible events such as corner, throwing, card stat etc but avoid picking a winner.

Bayern conceded 3 goals against such a rubbish team as United

Why are you calling Manchester United a rubbish team? Manchester United's performances are not so bad that you need to conclude that they are a rubbish club. Anyone who is always watching Manchester United matches will know that they are trying their best but are not always lucky to win matches. Even against Bayern Munich, they scored three goals; they deserved it, and that was the reason why they scored those three goals. What is happening to Manchester United has happened to many big teams before, and by the way, the season has not gone far. If Manchester United put in more effort, they can still qualify for the next round because there are only two matches they have played.

Dortmund are going to host Union Berlin this time. They are on a winning streak of three games currently. It feels like they are likely to add another win to their streak and move on. Because Union Berlin are way worse than the previous season at the moment. They lost their last 4 league games. They can't get good results in the Champions League either.

I think Dortmund have more chances to win the match than union Berlin because Union Berlin's performances are weak for now, so I am expecting Dortmund to win the match despite their performances not being that great. And again, if I have to check their head-to-head record, Dortmund is the favorite team to win the match because it is Dortmund's home game, and from my observations, I see that Dortmund always win matches against Union Berlin whenever they are playing at home again, and with union berlin poor performances currently, I don't think they can withstand Dortmund that much.
Well said Manchester united can not be totally ruled out at this moment as they are basically have hard times and not necessarily that they are a rubbish team, that is way too harsh a description to use on a team who is literally trying to put in their very best at every point just that they continually have series of bad days which is now undermining their efforts, but then they can still improve and get better results as compared to the now.

Dortmund by all indications is most likely to get a win from this game they will be playing against union Berlin, statistically Dortmund is doing way better than Union Berlin this season in the bundesliga, Dortmund has got a brilliant style of play that will be able to withstand almost any form of resistance union Berlin's defense may want to pose against them in the match.

But I think there wouldn't be much goals from this game between Dortmund and Union Berlin, probably a 3-1 victory in favour of Dortmund will be most likely the result for the game tonight, this is my prediction and not a financial advice but then I'm very sure both teams are going to secure a goal in the game, Dortmund will be playing from home which more added advantage for them.

It looks like Arsenal is in good form and has the advantage of playing at home, so it will be very difficult for Man City to score a goal at Arsenal's home ground, because Arsenal have not experienced defeat at all in their last match, although I am optimistic that Arsenal will come out as winners, at least not I have doubts about placing a bet on Arsenal, even though Man City is still at the top of the class, that doesn't mean they will continue to dominate the class, there will definitely be mistakes in every match.

Arsenal is in good form and so is Manchester City. Arsenal playing at home could have some impact on the game, but just not the impact you’re hoping for. It won’t be that much of a feat for Man City to score Arsenal and I believe they’re going to do just that.
Not to underestimate Arsenal here but I don’t think they could comfortably afford to win Man City despite the so called advantage of playing at home. It wouldn’t be that easy for Man City as well but I think they’ve got better chances of having a win over Arsenal.

The only advantage arsenal have over Manchester city I think is just the home advantage aside that they seem not to have any other advantage over Manchester city so I'm not expecting arsenal to just win or lose but then for both teams to do the best they can and the best team goes home with the complete three points and for Manchester city they will stand stronger in their position but if Arsenal wins they get to move up the standing.

I'm yet to see the line up of both teams for the match so at this point I can't really say or tell who will be playing the game and who will not be playing aswell, but I'm sure both teams will be using their best of players as they both want to secure a win from this game at least, both teams currently do not have any case of injury that will probably cause any of their vital players from playing this game.

There is also no case of red card aswell from both sides so it definitely going to be a full squad against another full squad . My favorite for this game is Manchester city and am sure same goes for many other persons, even the bookies gave them a lesser odd as compared to that given to Arsenal but the difference isn't much, I know Arsenal will give Manchester a hard time so if they must win they must work hard for it.

As this is the active World Cup thread, I'll post it here
If many here are already thinking it's bad that the World Cup will be played in 3 countries, take a look at this news that just came out:

The 2030 World Cup will be played in 3 continents and 6 countries

A brief summary: Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay (South America) will play the first matches of each team in their own country, to celebrate the centenary of the World Cup
After that, the World Cup will be played "normally" in 3 countries: Portugal, Spain and Morocco (Europe and Africa).

It was FIFA's way of holding the World Cup where it prefers, while still paying tribute to the 100th anniversary of the first World Cup

So, what do you think? A good way for FIFA to please everyone?
This sound really interesting and engaging as it will involve so much than the regular, because it will means more resources, more logistics and should I say more stress both on the officials and the participants, I don't really know how comfortable this will be with most countries but until then let's wait to see how well this can play out with everyone.

The 100th anniversary of the world cup is indeed a big one that deserves to be celebrated in a very robust Mannar and if FIFA has chosen to carry everyone along to achieve a memorable celebration I don't think it's a bad idea but if it's aimed at satisfying everyone then it will definitely not make enough sense as everyone cannot be satisfied regardless of how well you try.

The challenge that will be faced by almost everyone is been able to attend all the games which will definitely cost the fans so much except they will be playing only in their various continents, but then the venue for the final game is another thing that will be of great consideration as they can never be fair enough with any venue they choose if they are trying to please everyone.

Arsenal vs Man City on Sunday is perhaps the biggest game of the season so far. Will be really interesting to see who comes out on top. Should be a titanic battle, I have a feeling City will edge it though.
I also feel like that, Manchester City will still dominate their meeting with Arsenal and if you look at the results of Manchester City's matches since matchweek 1, they only experienced defeat against Wolves last week. So far strong teams like Newcastle and West Ham have also been defeated by Pep Guardiola's squad and could it be Arsenal's turn this season? Moreover, Manchester City is currently also in its best performance after beating Leipzig again in the Champions League, while Arsenal actually got bad results in the Champions League after losing to Lens. I think the match will be quite fierce and my prediction is a possible score of 1-2 or 2-3 for Manchester City to win.
Arsenal and Manchester city are both in good form and have really done excellently in the premier league this season as they are both amongst the top four teams on the standings, Arsenal has hardly lost a game this season same as Manchester city so I will say to a very great extent they both match up in strength and will definitely give us an entertaining game as it will be a match between two giants of the season.

Manchester city has had a duo loss away against wolves and Newcastle and here they are again to be hosted by Arsenal could it be possible they get a win? I think Manchester city may be able to perform better as their moral is still very high from the win they had in the champions league yesterday where they trashed the German side to a 3-1 defeat in their home.

Arsenal have the home advantage and I hope they utilize it to their advantage, amongst all the teams they have met in the EPL, Manchester city happens to be the only team yet to suffer a loss from Arsenal, Arsenal has suffered only but one loss this season in the premier league, on the standing arsenal is below Manchester city at third position , a familiar occurrence every season.

Dortmund are going to host Union Berlin this time. They are on a winning streak of three games currently. It feels like they are likely to add another win to their streak and move on. Because Union Berlin are way worse than the previous season at the moment. They lost their last 4 league games. They can't get good results in the Champions League either.

They simply have concentration problems despite the start they made to the season with 2 wins. While their defense is very vulnerable Dortmund should be able to make use of this and their being in-form both. I expect a comfortable win for Dortmund here.

Borrusia Dortmund is doing exceptional good in Bundesliga but failing to make the exact same impression in UCL is definitely what bothers the supporters, they hoped to do more better in all rounds of competition. Perhaps Borrusia Dortmund headcoach, Edin Terzic is capable of elevating the performance of the club, turning them into a competitive elite club because the club have suffered unexpected declined in performance. Next game is Union Berlin, it would be an easy game for the Dortmund, thrilled victory is their target and they will achieved it with hardwork. Dortmund rankked 4th on the table in the current stats.
Although the German bundesliga is one that is becoming highly competitive at the moment with most of the teams working very hard to get a spot at the top but then it can't be compared to the champions league as that league is very competitive and has so much volatility and so the teams performance in their local league can not be equated to their performance at the UCL

They meet teams who happen to be champions from their local league so they are all champions so borrusia Dortmund might be doing well in the bundesliga but may not possibly get same performance at the UCL but then hopefully they will get better in the UCL and I hope to see them make it pass the round of sixteen , which is possible if they further improve in the UCL.


I think with union Berlin, Dortmund may get a draw or a win but it's most likely going to be a draw as union Berlin as suffered much losses already and would want a draw at least to save the day moreover a dare on that game wouldn't cause much harm to Dortmund but it will only slow down their speed to move to the top, they may not be able to win the league title but they will most likely finish top of the table.
