Chelsea being in the top five on the table will be the most amazing thing to happen as far as this season is concerned. Chelsea has already lost many points so far, so even if they increase their present performance to fight and see their success, they will apparently hang around the top 10, no doubt, but seeing their two last games, which are with Aston Villa, they performed well and scored 1-3, and the same thing happened when they also played against Crystal Palace, where the score was also 1-3, but that's not enough because Chelsea are already showing wonders, but it will be very hard for them to meet up to the top five in the table because having the task point will be something impossible for them.
We anticipate Chelsea’s next match with Manchester City, and I will definitely give my win to Manchester City, because it will be very hard for Chelsea to win them, but Chelsea are already showing wonders, so maybe they might win with luck.
Let’s be realistic it will be hard for Chelsea to actually finish in that top five position because most of the teams in those positions are not ready to drop points. Chelsea can still finish in European positions like the seventh place but the five seems to be a battle between Aston Villa, Manchester United and Newcastle United this three clubs do not look like they will slow down a bit now for Chelsea to climb up. The lasts wins was more like against struggling teams because the Aston Villa match as an FA cup and not league. The game against Manchester City is going to be the real test for them, even though I will predict a city win, it is not going to be easy for them because Chelsea has been good against the traditional top six. I can the remember in the first league game this season all odds were against Chelsea but they went on to play a dramatic game which i still expect, although city are seriously in hot form too but Chelsea has always been a problem in them and this year also isn’t an exception too |

There is a school of thought that suggests that Nigeria lost the AFCON finals because of their lack of fighting spirit and patriotism to their country. The blame is cast on the management for prioritizing foreign based players more than home grown players. The Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa also share the opinion. Looking at the team, apart from the goal keeper, Nwabali, I don't think there is any other player that has his football history in the country.
Nigerians will just come and everyone wants to have their say on the matter. This isn’t about not home based players anymore, can someone point out to me just one player that didn’t deserve that call up? All of them where worthy of the call up even Nwabali isn’t playing his trade now at the Nigerian league but South African league. People are clamoring for the coach to scout home grown players but how will he do that when the league itself is not in the right order this days. Our local league clubs hardly go far in continental football and you want the coach that is still finding his feet to fieldle in raw talent into a competition like AFCON? It will be a risk too much for him to handle, before we talk about home based players let’s revitalize the league itself for the boys to have better exposure. As for those bullying Iwobi it is so sad that we resulted to that, we can say he had a bad game but right before the competition started we all know he wasn’t an attacking midfielder but due to lack of choice the boy did well there. He created more chances than any of his fellow players there. He and the team were carried away with celebrations and Ivory Coast capitalized on that and won just like if it was our day we will have capitalized on there mistake This is football one side must lose and we were that side in the final, let’s cheer this patriots and back them to go stronger |

your friend might not be looking at bitcoin investment but rather trading, which many have categorize as gambling although they are right too but they still have a point since all of them are based on speculations. investing in bitcoin this days is almost in same risk cycle with a devaluing fiat currency and both are not gambling. although bitcoin trading is also speculations it is requires skills of both the technical and fundamental analysis and that's why you see skill traders do not lose anyhow have more than 70% chance of getting there analysis right not like gambling that's always a half and half chance

Your post actually not too clear because you started with how fiat was able to eliminate the use of trade by barter but in relation to bitcoin you clearly mention only about the investment and not the trade option. Bitcoin is a very good alternative to fiat but actually crumbling fiat like latter did to trade by bater i don't see that happening. for investment purpose bitcoin remains the best against this two because it is a store of value but for payment purposes which trade by barter was used for i don't see bitcoin overtaking fiat like that.
Bitcoin scalability is still an issue to actually help it overtake fiat in terms of been used for payment method most especially for small scale transactions. the transaction fees are sometimes high to use it, not to talk of confirmation time and that's why even Satoshi viewed bitcoin as an alternative

Great thread OP, My addition is although hardware wallet which are cold storage method which is regarded the best are not the only way of storing bitcoin offline but you can also have a device that he never tested the online space before and use it as an airgapped device and then install wallet like electrum inside and you sign offline transactions from it like the way you do in hardware wallets and they serve same function as the hardware wallets and sometimes more secure self. Another is one shouldn’t forget to manually back up their seedphrase offline even if you’re using hardware wallets or any cold storage. This will help you to recover your wallet back if the device gets damaged or stolen. Also OP I see that your table isn’t well arranged maybe you can use this guide by 1miau on how to create table or you just try to quote any thread that has table and then copy the raw format there |

That's also a red flag bro. Ratings can be manipulated, so we shouldn't solely trust them before starting a transaction. It's important to be cautious to avoid falling into the traps of scammers. In public places, trust can be tricky because things can be fake. Ratings are no exception,they can be bought and manipulated.
For instance, some apps advertised on forums pay people to write reviews on app stores. By doing this, they increase their software's downloads and usage. The same tactic applies to traders who want to boost their ratings. They pay people to trade more frequently with them and leave positive ratings and comments. This way, even scammers can accumulate many ratings, making it difficult to distinguish the genuine ones. Therefore, we all need to be careful and attentive when using exchanges.
Yes boss there is no disputing the fact say nothing is clean on this web 3 but we need to look at many things to narrow down the risk. Picking ratings no be the only criteria to look at but certainly part of them criterias as i Dey aware say people go fit manipulate am or even the account dem fit hacker but that one no mean say make we no look towards am too. He no go make sense say you just go trade with person wey get low trading volume. He just Dey like this forum, you go trust higher rank member interms of dealing than lower rank and that one no mean say higher ranks self no be dey run people street |

When I saw the odds I was expecting Manchester City game to blow, I'm not surprised the score is only 2-0. People who played over 2.5 goals and more lost their bets. City likes to do that occasionally. They can easily score 3 or more alone but they don't do that. They're idling the game. They turn the ball over as if they are attacking, but in fact they are passing the time and defending very tirelessly.
In the end it was important for them to get 3 points and they did it. Now they are back on top after a long break. I say that because they are level on game numbers, otherwise Liverpool have a chance to go ahead again with one more game.
Seriously this game has in the past always produces goals above 2.5 but this particular game was more of a conservative measure taking by Pep. He has struggled with injury this season, most of which where his key players and currently he is avoiding a high tempo game to help them conserve energy which we all saw how they play in the first half. The other reason could be the next coming game in the champions league against Copenhagen, although they are not much of a threat but you wouldn’t undermine anyone in that competition. It is a great win for Manchester city to go top for probably few hours and also to boost them against their coming match with struggling Chelsea who shared the spoils with them last time they meet. It’s very good that 25 minutes before the end (including stoppage time) Liverpool leads 2-1, but since I made a bet with a handicap of -1, I need at least one more goal  At the moment, bookmakers believe that Liverpool are more likely to win by more than one goal: 4th Goal Liverpool FC 1.79None 2.94 Burnley FC 5.10 I hope they are right, but the odds are changing every minute in favor of “no more goals”. Darwin Nunez just made your ticket, it’s 3-1 already and with the look of things I think that’s how it will win which means your handicap prediction actually works. But seriously this was a tricky bet to me considering that Liverpool have some of their forwards absent and Nunez misfiring but still in the end it pays off that is if they don’t concede any goal right now |

Bitcoin will continue to be useful for everyone even if that person is disabled. maybe illiterate people will have difficulty carrying out bitcoin transactions because they are hampered by their ability to see letters and numbers but i am sure that in the future the development of bitcoin wallets will continue to increase and we will see voice-based bitcoin wallets so that anyone and in any condition everyone can do bitcoin transactions easily.
in my country there are still quite a lot of people who are illiterate, but i see that they can still carry out buying/selling transactions well, because there are still many good people who guide them. i am sure this will also happen when transactions with bitcoin are carried out by those who are illiterate.
It is still same thing to me even if a voice base bitcoin wallet is created (even though I don’t think we will get there considering the privacy associated with bitcoin, anything face recognition or voice wouldn’t be welcomed). But still let’s say hypothetically this is created, how does an illiterate person still communicate with the device, remember this are people that can hardly read instructions or even write out anything. First of all they need to able to actually even use the internet which most are definitely finding hard to do, and we all know bitcoin is more complex than that. Have you thought about how they will handle cases like bitcoin transaction needing RBF or them signing from a cold wallet to broadcasting on a watch only wallet. This are cases that hinders an illiterate person venturing into bitcoin. Worst his they trust a friend or family member to do most of this things for them before they get acquainted with it, which is a very big red flag |

All these families can invest in Bitcoin if they want, because each family saves a small amount of their income, or spends them on unnecessary work. We can avoid all these unnecessary costs and invest in Bitcoin, it is possible if we want. If a middle class or a small family invests in bitcoin using a small portion of their fixed monthly or weekly income in Bitcoin using the DCA method, and thus if they continue to invest for a long time (typically everyone saves for a long time), Then one day in future it will become a much bigger portfolio and they may also get some financial support of big amount.
Even though bitcoin is a good investment open for everybody even if you have little and can’t get your hands on the full bitcoin you can easily just invest in the little units of is. But still there are families that cannot afford to invest into bitcoin not that they don’t usually have little money sometimes to spare but it is the duration that comes with bitcoin. If you have money that you’re willing to use in like less than 6 months time then it is not advisable to me to invest it into bitcoin because I see bitcoin has an assets that is only profitable for a longer term holder. This is not to say that bitcoin cannot increase in that short period of time but there is a higher tendency of it consolidating rather than surging up for a short period of time. And as you know low class people only have something like only house rent to save up to a year and that can not be advised to be invested into bitcoin. |

Important victory for Dortmund. So theey could defend place 4. Freiburg, on the other hand, can now fall back to place 9. They have not won their last 3 games. This makes it more difficulty for them to reach the international places.
Tomorrow then the game between Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. If Bayern Munich will win this game, it will be difficult to chase them down from 1st place again.
Dortmund have always been the dominant team in this encounter in the past and they have usually won the tie mostly on large goal margin, so I actually expect more goals than they scored. This will give them confidence to fight for the remain champions league spot. A position I never expected to see Dortmund in. Even though it was disappointing last season to lose the league on the last day, I still thought they will bounce back and even be main contenders this season too but there bad start or bad ending to the first round is still affecting them. Now to the game of the week. Last season by this time around Bayer Leverkusen were battling against relegation and then hired Xabi Alonso who has done immensely well for the club. This tie other seasons will be Bayern’s to win but Alonso has changed that narrative. Currently I see the game heading to draw or Bayern Munich will win but one thing is, this match wouldn’t be the season decider because I still believe there are many tricky matches coming up and they will be difficult than even this game. |

This is the reason smaller clubs with lower budgets cannot consistently survive at the top level no mater how good their scouting and recruiting process is.
We saw it with the Monaco and Ajax side that made it very far in the champions league at different times, but then saw their club picked apart just a season after, stifling any plans to sustain the performance for the next seasons.
This clubs do not have Those owners that can sustain or absorb the pressure of not getting tempted by offers like this. In fact it is the what clubs like this wants, they just want to be stepping stone for younger players to excel. Also even if they decide to fend off this interests and keep the players the players themselves push for this moves because it is there dream coming through for them. Ever since he moved to Bundesliga,the number of goals he has scored is enough to equal the tally he normally scores when he was at Totthenham,anyways,that doesn't mean he became more good when he got to Germany,it only mean that football is more tougher in England than in Germany.The English premier league is so tough to the extent that you can be a better goal scorer in other leagues,and come to England without scoring much goals,you can even turn flop because the defenders there are too aggressive,and wouldn't give you a chance at goal unless you are a top finisher.
Kane is seeing lots of goals because where he is now, is more softer and better than England where he was.
Harry Kane is seeing goals now just like he was seeing goals in Tottenham. Since his first full season with Tottenham he has been in double figures of 20 goals every season and he either gets the golden boots or he comes runner up. I will not say he scores more now because it is the Bundesliga but because his class his permanent and he has more creative players around him now than Tottenham. This league quality issue sometimes doesn’t matter when the player is good. Imagine Halaand scoring 50 goals across all competitions in his debut season at Manchester city a league we thought was the hardest and he can’t score in. It is more about class than anything else |

If suddenly you went on a binge-gambling out of a lack of self-control or something else. For example, you deposit money in rapid succession after a series of losses and the casino management freezes your account. And when you call their customer support, they tell you that your account has been frozen for 3 weeks and the reason why they carried out that measure was because they suspected that you were gambling irresponsibly and decided to take that measure so that you can call yourself back to order, will you feel furious, cuss out, sign out of your account and register on another casino and continue betting. Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?
No casino or gambling site will ever close down or freezes a customer account from excessive gambling because it is to their advantage since the house is only the winner in this. The only time aside which they freezes your account is when they notice something suspicious like you breaking the rules or you are signing into the account from various devices and the signee is initiating a withdrawal.they halt everything just to secure your funds. The only thing have heard and seems logical is that casinos will send you newsletters or advice on how to over come too much loses and we all know all this too is to keep you with them having that belief of winning and nothing more. |

This has been said severally, Nigeria is a consumer nation, even things that we can produce here are been imported, just imagine going to purchase goods from another country, you will have to buy dollar first before they can allow you to do such, even in Nigeria here import duty is been paid in dollar, somewhat do you expect, another aspect is hodling of dollar by our politicians, if a thorough search is been conducted in must of our politicians house, the amount of dollar that we will see will surprise many of us, and again if someone import goods to Nigeria in dollar, you don't ecepevt such person to sell at a cheaper price a few paying a high import duty and clearance fee.
Exactly, the way naira is been presented is actually what affects it. Naira isn’t treated as a currency that should be regarded for storage. This can be done just as you said by not only using the dollar currency for every transaction but also the naira should be used. Imagine having to sell our crude oil to another country using another currency which is not suppose to. You need to give people reason to hold your own your own currency before it generates value. Another reason why Naira also depreciates is the excessive printing of its paper money, most top currency in the world mostly put regulations in the number that should be printed so as to have a limited number of that currency but that is not it. As to OP what actually set the price of things high when there is always dollar price increase is sometimes people selfish interest there are some markets that dollar hasn’t actually touched but they are increased due to others increasing there’s and not necessarily the dollar affecting it |

No doubt about the fact that it is good to invest your money while you are young, and you shouldn't spend your money on frivolities. but one thing you must understand is the fact that most young people hardly come across funds to make investment for themselves. It is good to make your plans early and activate them, but our Nigerian society is one place that doesn't give young people favorable condition to achieve some of these goals, so probably your location and poor funds might lead to you achieving some of this goals in the later part of your life.
I have to agree with you that before an individual can engage or dive into investment you might be stable. But sometimes many people actually over estimate this stability for buoyancy, you need to be well positioned to actually start an investment, investors or business people do not start there investment, only when they are comfortable but they start from scratch and mostly have a rough start to the business. Seriously the country is not enabling for youths to actually have start up capital but I will tell you that there are some that get money off the internet legitimately and instead of diversifying that money they easily upgrade their social life instead. |

I don't think so, the Premier League is not boring even though Manchester City has been the team that has managed to dominate the title in the last 6 seasons. Other teams such as Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have also dominated it in the past, so now it's time for Manchester City to take the lead.
Manchester City have struggled in the past and Pep Guardiola came in and fixed everything. He has made Manchester City a fearsome and respected team in the Premier League today, his title record is proof in the last 6 seasons. Currently, Manchester City is still very worthy of winning its fourth title in four consecutive seasons, unless Liverpool and Arsenal can stop that dominance this season.
This season will probably be different compared to last season, I mean Manchester City will probably not easily defend their title when Liverpool is also working hard for it. Klopp will try to achieve something as a beautiful farewell gift to Liverpool, but I hope Pep Guardiola is never affected by it.
I also have to agree that Manchester city have actually turned the tittle to a farmers league, this is there third time straight winning the league although Manchester United have also done same streak in the past, so breaking the record wasn’t the reason why I think they have turned the league on their side but the way they do it. Manchester City have usually won almost all this league under Pep with so much margin between them and the club that came second except on some cases which took away the fight till the end. Winning it now again will definitely set a new record of four consecutive wins in a row which wouldn’t be too good to me so this season i want a new club to win it. Manchester city weren’t even struggling in the league before Pep came in, since they got new owners and started the new era in 2010 they have been superb. They won two league titles before the arrival of Pep which showed that they were already a decent club prior to Pep arrival. They actually wanted to dominate Europe entirely and that’s why the owners went for Pep and he delivered last season with the UCL trophy. Liverpool are looking like a club that could be a contender against this city but if city dares goes up on that table I don’t think they will drop again. Both Arsenal and Liverpool need to win all there matches and they try to beat city on the head to head game. Right now I only see a city fourth in row because the crisis surrounding the other two clubs can make them be challengers this time |

Nigerian Super Eagle narrowly escape the yesterday match with South Africa, they both manage to end their fulltime on draw before the penalty kicks which the Nigerian super eagle keeper safe two against South Africa as the lost the match.
One thing i will like to encourage on players is for them to always get prepared for the worse in any match and they should build themselves also against penalty kicks, some players are not just good on that, it was obvious on South Africans players as their weakness
The match was a very interesting one right from the start. The two countries wanted to progress and they actually did very well. The Nigerian team was actually outplayed in the first half of the game when the bafana bafana’s goal here trying to hit on counter and played long balls to Pacey Tau who actually caused us little problems yesterday. Towards the extra time it was obvious that they wanted a penalty which to me wasn’t the right thing we should have given them yesterday. We had two chances to kill the game off, one was presented to Lookman i the regular time and the other to Moffi in the extra time, both should have converted there chances As for taking of penalties, there are specialties and those players that easily get driven by emotions. Yesterday takers were good but prolonging it to after the first five takers would have put pressure on those left to play which is actually not good. I hope we can kill the game off before penalties in the final. |

Till now who are not buy Bitcoin he is loser i think. We are seeing already Bitcoin price increasing. I think it is impact of Bitcoin ETF approval. It gradually working. And near future Bitcoin halving will happen. Only 65 days remaining to halving. After halving Bitcoin price will increase there has no doubt because statistics telling that. Previous halving when happened then of after then Bitcoin price increased gradually and it continue even six months to one year. So i will tell if you want to invest on bitcoin we can buy now. It will be profitable for you.
Yes someone yet to actually invest in bitcoin are missing out but I wouldn’t call them a loser straight up, some might definitely have the intention but the knowledge or capital is not there to venture into bitcoin. Without this two things they might end up messing it up most especially after the capital you can afford to lose the security tips on how to safeguard one’s coins some people might have jumped in without proper protection knowledge and they could just go on and get scammed, this are the real losers. The bitcoin uprise isn’t even impacted by ETF even though the trend has created the current FOMO around this price. There has been some but fundamental news by CPI in connection with interest rate which has causes the recent pump |

One thing I will add is the checking of rating on the vendors. This is one thing that many newbies fall victim of, they focus only on the amount vendors put on and do not care much about the ratings. You look at the number of transactions that they vendor as actually done, the more transaction the vendor has done the long he is has been on the market, you them check the percentage of successful transactions and then make your decision base on the ratings. The other red flag is someone trying to take the trade to social media platforms that’s off the exchange of you do so then you have no exchange to report back to. traders claim your - Don't release funds without confirming receipt:Always confirm you have received funds before releasing them. Even these exchange has a notification that you shouldn't Releasing funds without confirmation or puts your money at risk of being lost permanently. Many have fallen victim to scams due to releasing funds prematurely.
This is one big mistake that newbies make, I have experienced this before where the vendor sent a fake receipt and I had to go through my bank support and found out that the transaction id was fake, if I had panick the vendor would have had it’s way because he actually threatened to report me to support just to put fear In me. So never release a coin for transactions that you haven’t confirmed even if you’re on the transaction for days |

Our coach got it correctly with the substitutions just before the penalty kick. It was good to bring in Moffi, Ihenacho and Omeruo who clearly are very confident penalty takers. Moffi's kick was the most important, we know that the South African goalkeeper is very good with Penalties, as he saved 3+ penalties on their road to this semi finals. They wanted the penalty because they were confident that they will be able to win with that method, trusted the ability of their goalkeeper Williams, but Moffi's first kick crushed any confidence the goalkeeper must have had. I applaud Moffi for not missing the first kick even though he has not played in the tournament and would have had cold feets, also with Ihenacho for winning it for Nigeria too.
Seriously I wouldn’t call it a tactical strategy but rather we got lucky on this one, whenever I saw the substituted players coming up to take penalty I was just like you afraid that they might ended losing it. The first was most vital and Moffi did well. I thought we could do all five clear but the energetic Ola Aina had to miss, that was a hard luck for player who to me has been one of the best players in the Nigeria squad and the tournament at large. Immediately I saw Ekong coming for the fourth penalty i Knew Senior man Kelz will definitely come up last. The most naively penalty was that of Ekong after South Africa had missed which was a really good penalty, he lead by an example Next up his against the host country. Ivory Coast is going to be a tough game. Considering that we had once beaten in This competition and with there supporters large in number on their side |

The scrutiny and criticism directed towards Onana may not solely be attributed to his individual capabilities, but rather to the collective challenges faced by the club as a whole. His unexpected difficulties at Manchester United could be seen as a symptom of larger issues within the team, including defensive vulnerabilities, midfield inconsistencies, and overall managerial challenges. Blaming Onana solely for his perceived "flops" would be unjust without considering the wider factors influencing the team's performance.
Onana has had its bad moments since signing for Manchester United most especially in the champions league where they were knocked out from the group stages. But aside those blunders I don’t think Onana deserves the kind of treatment he is receiving from some football fans. He came in with a big reputation which eluded him. The banter thrown a Onana are mostly me because he came in to replace the fans favourite DeGea. The way De Gea was axed for him was why many fans actually turned on him and affected his confidence. I still believe In Onana coming good for united if they can actually get him to play his pattern. He is more of a sweeper goalkeeper but the defense line of united has actually limited that. You can see that he plays way better when Lisandro Martinez is on the pitch because he understands how to confidently play from the back and gives Onana confidence to play his pattern It's not only fans were also feeling upset but the players too. Even enzo's agent has been also starting to talk about the potential of his client to leave from the club. Im feeling so damn bad with this club. Chelsea is always consistently making a lot of blunders any game. This club is always performing so poorly like there was no bounding on it.
The players were playing individually even some were so stubborn and it's also destroying the gameplay from the club. Pochettino keep make more excuses and this is also affecting the performance from chelsea too.
I knew players like Enzo Fernandez will definitely get impatient when there is lack of consistency or playing time. In his own case it is lack of consistency, he has Been way too below par and not looking like a player that won the young player of the World Cup tournament. I think if he Chelsea doesn’t get on been consistent we might be seeing departures. The problem now is that most of these players have signed way too long contracts ranging from 7 to 8 years, I know this was to make Chelsea avoid FFP but this was also a reckless decision by some of this players because this will definitely tire them down if they wish to move and the club doesn’t want it |
