Xavi Hernandez future with Barcelona have been over since his announced will leave his position at the end this season despite what the result success winning UEFA Champion League and La Liga tittle. Last night, after winning over Napoli on second leg match he was confirmed keep leaving his position although Barcelona win Champion League tittle. I don't know what behind of Xavi Hernandez decision want to leaves his position between bad communication with management, low budget for transferring players or Xavi Hernandez scheme not support yet by management.
Its another warning for Barcelona's management left few months later before competition ended must find the new manager for replacing Xavi Hernandez, I am so disappointed with Barcelona's management how bad communication with their manager although success won La Liga tittle last season and first time Barcelona qualified to quarter final of Champion League after failure last two season in a row.

However, Xavi's decision has already been made and he will only be under pressure if he doesn't leave the team. He came to bring a breath of fresh air and was quite successful in improving the team's performance despite the various problems experienced by Baarca.
I doubt Barca will get a better coach than Xavi at the moment. in the sense of bringing a Barcelona game that is at least better than before he arrived. especially with the financial situation which will not give the coach the freedom to create the best squad. and Xavi has proven that he can do it even within the club's limitations.
When Xavi decides to resign next season, the main concern is who will be the next successor. The financial difficulties experienced by the club certainly make it difficult for management to recruit a coach who has a big name and is skilled in leading Barcelona to win trophies next season. All new managers demand to get a budget so they can recruit the players they want.

However, Xavi deserves appreciation for his performance so far, and I do not consider him a failure this season. Not many coaches are willing to endure pressure, with limited abilities, and are required to win trophies every season. Luckily, Xavi has a close emotional relationship with the club, he has unleashed all his potential.

Apart from that, Xavi doesn't seem to have said anything regarding where he will go next season, I think there will be several top European clubs interested in signing him. Most recently, Xavi succeeded in bringing Barcelona through to the quarter finals of the Champions League, and Xavi still has the opportunity to bring Barcelona to finish as runner-up in La Liga.

The difference between Bayern Leverkusen and every other clubs is there consistency in wining, I don't know if I will call it luck but this season has been something else for them because is been a while they pull this kind of performance  by remaining unbeaten, that's a very commendable performance by Bayern Leverkusen, imagine wining Bayern Munich three consecutive times with a strong pressure, although there wining against Wolfsburg was actually expected because there is no way they will win Bayern Munich two times and will not win Wolfsburg so it was expected.
The team's board will be praising the coach because he's a Saint for the club, with him sitting in the headcoach position, alot of things have improved with the club. There's never dissapointing results for the club currently. Bayer Leverkusen have the consistency to continue pushing forward to win matches, it's very important they lift the Bundesliga title because it's been their top priority in the space. Xabi Alonso sits by the corner to ensure things flows smoothly for his side, always in charged to make the long and short possible game strategy for his team.
Xabi deserves praise from all quarters for what he did at Leverkusen, remaining untouched by defeat until the end of the season, a performance we rarely see. The championship trophy seemed real after Leverkusen beat Bayern in the second half of the season, then Tuchel fleet suffered a surprising defeat to Bochum. With the remaining games ahead, and looking at the points gap that has already been established, Leverkusen is getting closer to lifting the trophy.

The key factor in Leverkusen success certainly comes from Xabi cool hands, they managed to play effectively in every match, and Xhaka was the main actor for Xabi will in the midfield. Leverkusen strength is not limited to domestic competitions, as we saw they were also able to go unbeaten in the Europa League, their last match against Qarabag was very dramatic.

Tomorrow Xabi fleet will host Qarabag at BayArena, it could be said that they have the potential to win the second leg match, if successful Leverkusen will advance to the quarter finals. Meanwhile, in the Bundesliga, Leverkusen next opponent is Freiburg, I don't think Xabi fleet will suffer their first defeat at their hands.

It would be extraordinary if Arsenal could beat Manchester City when they visit the Etihad Stadium at the end of this month, but I don't think that Manchester City will immediately lose when they host Arsenal at the end of the month unless many of Manchester City's key players are injured. Because as long as there are still many key players from Manchester City who are fit enough to play, it will be quite difficult for Arsenal to beat Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

This is an indecisive game and it doesn’t matter who is hosting who at home. They are both fighting for the top spot of the premier league table in order to triumph and win the trophy this season, for this sake and how their performances are, they should be considered the same in this match. This will be a competitive match and until this match is played, we can’t tell which team will have the better chance of winning. Matches like this are unpredictable because anything can change in the field of play when you have two big teams and two talented coaches managing and fighting for the same position as the league is already coming to an end.
That's true, even though Arsenal are at the peak of their best performance at the moment, beating City at the Etihad is still difficult to do. In the first half of the season Arsenal were able to beat City with a narrow score of 1-0 at the Emirates, it is clear that in the next meeting City will carry out a revenge mission. Apart from that, the background to confirm their respective positions at the top of the standings made the match even more intense.

On paper, City is still superior, because apart from acting as host, Pep Guardiola fleet also has consistent performance. As defending champions, City is still showing its strength, which is not much different from last season. Arsenal expectations are understandable, because they managed to qualify for the quarter finals of the Champions League.

On the other hand, whoever can win the match and top the standings will still be under pressure from Liverpool. If City can win, then the Reds can potentially overtake them because they have an easier match. In many aspects, City still outperforms Arsenal, especially when talking about experience, Pep certainly doesn't want to be beaten a second time by his student.

I don't even remember when was the last time Inter lost, lol. All jokes aside, ATM definitely has their situation cut out for them, it looks like it could be a trouble and they should be careful about it. I feel like it is going to be a tough deal to handle all of this. I get that it may feel like it is going to be easy, but in most cases it is not that easy at all.
It's not certain that Inter can win even though at the moment we can't remember the last time the Nerazzurri lost.
Atletico will try to win to open up Simeone's hopes. When Atletico Madrid played at home, it was difficult for their opponents to win, especially when they played at Inter, they only lost 1-0.
I probably don't want this match to determine the winner through normal time, instead I want to determine who wins through extra time.
It is unlikely that the ATM versus Inter match will go to extra time or a penalty shootout, I predict that Inter will be able to achieve another narrow victory like in the first leg. ATM is not in its best condition, it is true that Simeone's fleet is quite tough when playing at home, but chasing a goal deficit is not an easy job.

Inter have a solid defensive line, Morata and Griezmann have to work harder to penetrate it, and they themselves have to be prepared to stem the movement of Martinez who is on fire. On paper, even though ATM acts as host, Inter deserves to be at the top, the pressure is on ATM side because they are 1 goal behind.

However, all possibilities are still open, Inter could be eliminated and all predictions will be wrong. Simeone remains optimistic that his fleet can emerge victorious by reversing, even though they are not favorites to advance to the quarter finals. Napoli and Lazio have been eliminated, now Inter is the only Serie A representative remaining, I won't miss the match.

Whether in the Saudi League or the Asian Champions League, Al-Ittihad will not be able to win against Al-Hilal and this is a bitter pill that must be swallowed by all players who have experienced ups and downs this season. Indeed, Al-Ittihad cannot do well this season despite the complicated problems that have no solution yet. New coach Marcelo Gallardo was also unable to provide the best results for his new team in the Saudi league. I think it is possible that if the results remain the same without any significant changes then we will see Al-Ittihad sack their current coach.

As one of the elite teams in the Saudi league and even as the defending champion team, Al-Ittihad should not have to experience this in a short time and even though they are actually quite good in the Saudi league, it's just that the problems at the start of the season are the main enemy that they have to fix to move on. more advanced next season. I want to see Al-Ittihad with their European player recruitment to be on the right track in the title race and this season they can't do that. But hope is still there and it starts from small things and I hope next season they don't mess up again.
Al Ittihad experienced a very significant decline in performance, they need to completely overhaul their main squad if they want to appear again as title contenders in the Saudi Pro League. In a short span of time, three meetings in two competitions, Al Ittihad were completely defeated by Al Hilal. A very volatile period, and Al Hilal had the opposite by going untouched by defeat.

Benzema has failed to impress since he was brought from Madrid, various rumors about his relationship with the club have circulated, perhaps this is one of the factors why Al Ittihad is experiencing inconsistency. Now that they have lost the SPL trophy and been eliminated from the Asian Champions League, it looks like Al Ittihad management needs to add more top European players in the future.

With the financial strength that Al Ittihad has, it can bring in top European players, and can even recruit top European coaches. If they don't move actively next season, then we won't see them becoming a team that can compete with Al Hilal, Al Nasr or Al Ahli in the hunt for trophies. In the remaining matches this season, Al Ittihad is only trying to maintain its position in fourth place in the standings, so as not to be overtaken by Al Taawon.

Xabi Alonso is undoubtedly the best manager in all the leagues this season, but I think he needs to repeat the same success once again to prove himself. Actually, at this stage, I don't see any difference between Miguel and Xabi. I think the same about Victor Osimhen, last season he produced great stats but this season he hasn't produced great stats. So, to become an elite manager or an elite footballer, they need to produce good stats for several seasons. Already, we know them to be good managers and good footballers.
I don't know if this year was a chance for Michel or if he will be successful again in the future. I think if they achieve such success again, then it might be right to talk about the best thoughts. I have similar thoughts about Xabi. It is not right to generalize the success of a single season. How he does next year will determine his career. If he is good next year, then a great coaching career could happen for Xabi.
That's right, one season is not enough to prove that his skills are really good, either Xabi or Michel need to maintain their performance in the next season. Meanwhile, if Xabi decides to stay in the Bundesliga, especially with Leverkusen, I think he will find it difficult to surpass the record he created, especially if he goes one full season undefeated.

Likewise with Michel, he will face many challenges next season, especially if Girona appears in the Champions League. It's not an easy job balancing teams in two of the most competitive competitions, it's clear things will be very different from this season. Overall, Xabi and Michel deserve appreciation, after successfully managing their fleet well.

Regarding the future of both of them, I believe that many clubs will be interested in recruiting them, and I believe that both of them will become successful managers in the future. If they join a big club, they could be successful every season, because squad depth plays an important role in winning the championship trophy.

Congratulations to Arsenal as they qualify to the quarter finals of the Champions League, after there win Porto with 4-2 penalty shoot out. Arsenal goalkeeper saved the day for them.

This is the first time that Arsenal will qualify to the quarter finals after 2010. Arteta and his men really deserve this. It is a difficult match for both clubs who could not find the back of the net even after the extra time. Arsenal are jubilating on this great victory, and Porto are sad, the fact is that one club must win.
That's right, after failing continuously in the round of 16 for a long time, today Arsenal managed to qualify for the quarter finals through a penalty shootout. David Raya deserves to be named a hero with his two saves, and Rice, Saka, Havertz and Odegaard managed to carry out their duties as executors perfectly. Overall, Arteta has succeeded in building a squad that has a winning mentality, he deserves appreciation.

Previously, many people predicted that Arsenal would be able to turn things around, I didn't expect the match to go to a penalty shootout, luckily Arsenal could break their bad trend of often failing in the round of 16. On the other hand, another Arsenal hero who cannot be forgotten is Leandro Trossard, the goal he scored in the 41st minute opened up Arsenal hopes.

Arsenal, who rarely get appreciation because they often collapse when under pressure, have now succeeded in proving their quality and they are being flooded with praise. Yes, congratulations to the Gunners.

It is not the first time that Roma looks as if they have more control over the game, but they lack some quality to create chances, to use that ball possession and more often put their opponents under serious pressure. You can see it from the number of shots on target: Roma had 5 shots on target with 68% ball possession and Fiorentina had 5 shots on target with only 32% ball possession.

That was not quite the result they were hoping for as Bologna and Juventus both failed to win their games. That was another chance to get closer to the top four positions here. Though I have to add that Fiorentina is a reasonably good team at the moment and not to be beaten easily in their home stadium. I think in summary Roma is happy about the point as they were actually on the bring of losing the game.



Maye this result was not something we were expecting to see from Roma and we were expecting to see better performance from this team because Fiorentinawas not strong enough to take a draw against a team like Roma. But we can't forget that Roma had a much worse performance during the time when they were working with Mourinho and they would have lost this team with their former coach, that's why I guess this daw was not bad for Roma.

However, De Rossi has a long way ahead and he can try much more than this over time to get better results if they give him enough time and buy him the players he needs because so far he has proven himself as a good coach who got the place of Mourinho. He could manage the team very well.
Under De Rossi control, Roma is now gaining momentum again to penetrate the top four of the standings, a draw against Fiorentina is not bad at all. Fiorentina is not a mediocre club in Serie A, so it is not easy to beat them, especially as Roma acts as the visiting team. Roma were still lucky to survive defeat, so a draw was fair for both of them.

Roma would probably be stuck in the middle of the standings if they still kept Mourinho, I'm not underestimating Mourinho quality because I quite like him. But sometimes luck is not on someone side, it is proven that Roma decision to appoint De Rossi was the right policy. Now Roma is 3 points adrift of Bologna, the opportunity to penetrate the Champions League zone is still open.

De Rossi has slowly shown his quality, as a manager his adaptation at the club has been quick and smooth, which is natural because he is one of Roma legends. His understanding of the club helps things get better quickly, so far I think Roma have improved a lot and De Rossi deserves appreciation.

Nothing changed after that although Newcastle managed to minimise the defeat but they could not force points for this week because they did lose to Chelsea.
Honestly in this match I didn't really expect such a result for Newcastle actually because after all with their extraordinary performance last season then for this season there is more hope for Newcastle to be able to get better results but it looks like Howe is too complacent with the squad he has especially with the signing of Tolani who has given good happiness at the beginning of the season it turned into a disaster for Newcastle at this time.
With the current conditions, it seems that the management of Newcastle should try to overhaul in terms of squad and coaching because after all this is what they really need with a strong push of money from the middle east I think it is not too suitable if Newcastle is in the middle of the EPL standings.

Newcastle's performance has been down this season and they are completely different compared to last season. I think they need to improve their squad especially as the team's performance has been unreliable so far, but I know the impact of injuries to several players has also changed them.

Newcastle lost to Chelsea with a score of 3-2 when Newcastle could dominate the match, but they did not have many goal opportunities compared to Chelsea. Of course it was a difficult match because basically Chelsea played well at home, so Chelsea deserved to win it. Whatever it is, Eddie Howe needs to think about how to increase the depth of his squad next season. Newcastle must not allow things like this to continue to happen which in turn makes their league chances drop low.
Everything became different after they lost a number of key players due to injury, their midfielder Tonali also had to be sidelined due to a ban from playing for 10 months. It is understandable why they experienced a decline in performance, focusing completely on the Premier League after being eliminated in the Champions League did not make Newcastle stable and perform better.

Chelsea is very ambitious to secure full points, because they want to penetrate the top 10 of the standings, they managed to make good use of the home game. Beating the Blues is a tough task, even though Pochettino fleet experienced more ups and downs in performance, but Newcastle managed to put up impressive resistance at Stamford Bridge yesterday.

It's true, Newcastle needs to overhaul the depth of its squad next season, so that it can compete again in the top four of the standings. In the remainder of this season, their realistic target is to finish on the European track, I think this is still possible. Eddie Howe is required to find the best solution, how to continue to be consistent in the future.

It is still possible, but if we look both of the teams fixtures:



Barca has a better chance to stay as the top 2 in the league at the end of the season.
Girona probably fail to get 3 points against these teams: Betis, Atletico, Las Palmas, Barca and Valencia.

La Liga still has 10 games left to play and all changes in the standings can still happen because the two teams will also meet each other in week 34, let's say girona and Barcelona win all games before the 34th game starts, won't the 34th game be decisive for both teams for who has the right to be in the second rank later?
I think with girona often coming out of their best game momentum then I have a little doubt if girona will be able to maintain second place at the end of the season.

Barcelona Currently only have a 1 point difference from Girona and in the last few games Barcelona have actually performed well enough that we can say if they have returned to their best at the moment, besides that this season is Xavi last season at barcelona and for sure he will try to make Barcelona end the season as high as possible, when grona can drop points when facing a club that is slightly above the relegation zone like Mallorca,  Of course, it's hard to say if Girona will be able to spend the match of the season with win all those games.
If Girona can return to their impressive performance like the first half of the season, there is a possibility that they can go through the remaining 10 matches without defeat. The match against Barcelona and ATM is indeed the toughest, but Girona was enough to force both of them to a draw. Since the start of the campaign, Girona has erased many concerns, including when they beat Barcelona and ATM in the first half of the season.

Barcelona has the potential to finish in the runnerup position, because Xavi fleet is used to facing heavy pressure every season, unlike Girona, which has only experienced it this season. ATM also cannot be ignored, even though he is far behind in moving up the rankings. In essence, Girona has become a team to be reckoned with, all La Liga contestants now respect them.

On the other hand, Girona priority is of course to finish as runnerup, considering that it is already difficult to overtake Madrid, who currently leads the standings. However, finishing in 3rd or 4th place is also not a problem, because they can get tickets to appear in the Champions League next season. Expectations for Girona this season are quite high, everyone is curious about where they finish at the end of the season.

Also, I personally cannot say Bayern Munich will fail in the Champions League this season because after all, Bayern Munich has also qualified for the quarter-finals. Therefore, there is certainly still a good chance for Bayern Munich to be able to go further and to get the trophy too, because any result can still happen and Bayern Munich should still have great ambition and morale in the Champions League.

It is better Bayern Munich to devote all of their energy to the Champions League competition, as I believe that is where their best chance of winning a trophy this season lies, rather than relying on the Bundesliga, which is currently out of reach. Their poor performance in the Bundesliga does not reflect their performance in the Champions League; even after winning the first leg match of the round of 16, they returned and scored more goals to ensure a better lead and qualification for the quarterfinals. I won't underestimate them in the Champions League because they've demonstrated to some extent that they will perform well in this league and compete for the trophy.
Tuchel will definitely prioritize the Champions League for now, because the chances of winning a trophy in the Bundesliga are very low. I think Bayern status as a respected club in the Champions League is still the same, even though they are not as favorites as Man City or Madrid. All the teams that will be Bayern opponents in the quarter finals will definitely be on full alert. With the depth of the squad they have, Bayern can show a different performance in the Champions League.

On the other hand, the big win over Mainz indicates that they are back in their best form. In the Bundesliga, Tuchel only needs to keep Bayern in second place in the standings, and ensure that the remaining matches in the future can be wiped out with a win. Bayern attention will turn completely to the Champions League, a last chance for them if they don't want to end the season empty handed.

Meanwhile, even though Bayern is not on the same level as Man City and Madrid, the opportunity for Tuchel fleet to talk a lot is quite open. Who knows, Bayern can reach the final, when many people doubt their performance, because there is no guarantee that Man City or Madrid can reach the final. Bayern has the complete attributes to trouble any team, even though they will be sacked, Tuchel definitely wants his reputation in the Champions League to remain good.

Memang kalau dilihat dari rekam jejak PDIP kalau kalah selalu jadi oposisi terlebih lagi di era pemerintahan SBY karena memang Megawati dan SBY hubungannya tidak baik. Tetapi politik itu dinamis gan, apa saja bisa terjadi sperti Gerindra yang ketika kalah malah masuk koalisi. Mungkin saja kan kalau PDIP akan masuk koalisi juga apalagi hubungan Megawati dan Prabowo baik bahkan keduanya pernah menjadi pasangan capres-cawapres.

Betul kalau semua itu mungkin saja terjadi didunia politik, tapi akan sangat disayangkan kalau koalisi pemerintahan kedepan itu terlalu kuat tanpa ada oposisi yang sepadan. Contoh adalah 2x periode Jokowi dimana oposisi terlihat sangat lemah, makanya banyak keputusan2/undang-undang/kebijakan2 yang bisa dibilang sangat gampang disetujui tanpa proses filtering yang ketat dari oposisi. Saya akan lebih mendukung jika dari koalisi 01 dan 03 tetap dipihak oposisi ya walaupun kalau dilihat2 Nasdem, PKB & PPP itu lebih condong ke koalisi pemerintahan.
Saya juga membayangkan akan seperti itu, Jokowi berhasil menundukkan semua lawan Politiknya dalam dua kali periode kepemimpinannya, termasuk Gerindra khususnya Prabowo yang terakhir masuk kedalam kabinet kerja. Oposisi tetap di butuhkan untuk mengawal roda Pemerintahan dari luar, dan PDIP kemungkinan besar akan menjadi yang terdepan menjadi oposisi, sebab merasa paling di khianati oleh Jokowi dan Gibran.

Partai koalisi dari 01 kemungkinan besar akan di ajak untuk bergabung, meskipun tidak akan terjadi dalam waktu dekat. Dan tidak menutup kemungkinan mereka akan terpecah menjadi dua, sebagian bergabung ke dalam Pemerintahan dan sebagian lagi akan bergabung bersama PDIP. Itu merupakan tantangan tersendiri bagi Presiden terpilih nantinya, sebab kebiasaanya semua kebijakan Pemerintah akan salah di mata Oposisi.

Pemilu sudah usai. Dan sudah ada Capres yang terpilih. Kira-kira bagaimana langkah yang akan segera dilakukan?
Belum ada pengumuman resmi dari KPU dan Belum ada juga keputusan dari MK yang mengesahkan jika nanti ada sengketa sehingga walau saat ini versi quick count pemilu, pasangan paslon 2 prabowo dan gibran sebagai pemenang, itu tidak bisa dijadikan patokan atau langkah apa nanti yang akan paslon terpilih untuk mereka kerjakan. Kalau ane sih mending cooling down dulu, dan melakukan persiapan dan program real apa yang akan dikerjakan nanti setelah dilantik. Ya kira-kira nyusun menteri dan pejabat-pejabat yang akan dibentuk nanti, itu pun kalau belum ada partai lain yang gabung, kalau ada tentu susunan nanti akan berubah.

Untuk saat ini masih kita harus bersabar, sepertinya akan ada hambatan setelah pengumuman resmi KPU nanti. Selain isu hak angket, akan ada banyak tantangan untuk merealisasikan janji kampanye, sebab terdapat dua kubu yang harus kembali di satukan untuk di ajak berkoalisi. Tidak seperti di Pemilu sebelumnya, dimana Jokowi hanya memiliki satu lawan polik saja.

PDIP beserta partai koalisinya sepertinya akan enggan bergabung dengan Pemerintahan Prabowo, Anis mungkin akan diajak untuk menjadi bagian dari Kabinet baru, meski tidak akan langsung. Biasanya masa-masa awal Pemerintahan akan banyak isu tentang realisasi janji kampanye, sepertinya Prabowo-Gibran akan lebih mendahulukan untuk melanjutkan Program Pemerintahan sebelumnya.

There is no other team in League 1 that is consistently able to put pressure on PSG at the top of the standings, so even though PSG do not achieve maximum results they are still comfortable at the top of the standings.
This is the bad thing about competition which actually harms teams like PSG who are unable to develop in performance to be able to compete on the European stage.
I think the reason why PSG has not been able to win the Champions League title as they target every season is because the League 1 competition is not competitive.

I am very disappointed with PSG's draw, they are really not worth placing bets on, even though PSG are very favorites, they don't seem to have much motivation to win the match.
I think we all agree with that, easy competition at domestic level makes it difficult for PSG to compete at European level. But if they can change their transfer style for the better, they could become a team like Bayern, we know the Bundesliga is not much different from Ligue 1 in terms of competitiveness, but Bayern could become one of the teams challenging for the Champions League trophy, even though this season they look unstable.

Draws in the last three matches have not put pressure on PSG, they are still leading the standings comfortably, because the points gap with Brest is still large. Enrique can relax in Ligue 1, and will focus fully on the Champions League matches ahead. On the other hand, this is Mbappe last season at PSG, Enrique must make good use of his presence in order to increase their bargaining value in the hunt for the Champions League trophy.

Who knows, PSG could be the surprise team this season, who could reach the final, like Inter last season.

4-4 against Al Hazm at home and 1-3 against Al Raed at home. I think this is sufficient proof that Al Hilal is several times better than Al Nasr and they really deserve the title. Ronaldo wasn't the holy player they needed to dominate the Saudi Professional League. Despite Ronaldo playing that game, they were able to only create 3 serious chances or 3 shots on target. I haven't seen any part of that game, but it's surprising to see that they are losing against some teams that are playing in the relegation zone or are the last position in the table like Al Hazm. Project SPL title failed big time! But Ronaldo probably doesn't care for as long as he becomes the top scorer. That's all he cares about.
Actually, it would be more fun for Ronaldo if he could become the top scorer and at the same time win the Champion trophy. However, Al Hilal appeared more impressive this season by being unbeaten like Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. Al Nassr could change their priority scale to the Asian Champions League, who knows, they might be lucky there. But Al Nassr journey was not easy there because they had to work hard to turn things around and catch up with a 1 goal deficit from Al Ain.

12 points adrift of Al Hilal, I consider the competition to be over, Although the SPL has 10 more matches left in the future. It is unrealistic to hope that Al Hilal, who are undefeated, will then experience 4 defeats, so that which will open up Al Nassr opportunity to hunt for trophies again. On the other hand, Al Nassr seems to need to add strength next season if they have ambitions of winning trophies, Ronaldo is getting older and he might be able to stay for another season or two.

I agree if you say maybe Brighton's chances this season in Europe are over because it will be difficult for them to chase goals on aggregate in the second leg despite playing at home, but I think the motivation and spirit must remain with the Brighton squad to hope that miracles happen in that game, I think Brighton should play with high motivation and not be burdened with the aggregate number of goals so that they can play to the maximum regardless of the final result that is in line with their expectations, at least they have not given up and have tried their best for the fans and the club.

If you look at Roma impressive prformance at the moment it is difficult to say if Brighton will be able to turn things around in the second leg, but I think the Brighton players will still be looking for victory in the game at least to reduce the aggregate goals even if they eventually have to say goodbye to the Europa League this season sooner.
Although they failed to go further in the Europa League, at least this season is quite valuable for Brighton because they can qualify for the last 16 of the Europa League in the club history and allow them to make this season failure to be better in the future.
Experience is a good teacher for Brighton, European competition is always not easy for teams who have just experienced it, reaching the round of 16 is a matter of pride for Brighton. Turning things around with a 4 goal deficit is very unlikely, Roma will definitely want a win to continue their momentum, reducing the aggregate might sound more realistic for Brighton.

However Roma were finalists in the Europa League last season, their mentality and experience is much higher than De Zerbi fleet, an understandable defeat. The competitiveness of the Premier League does not necessarily make Brighton stable in the European League, because in essence experience plays a very important role in determining opportunities to go further.

Roma have found their rhythm again since De Rossi took over leadership from Morinho, they are predicted to be able to talk a lot like last season if they continue to maintain their performance level. Still Liverpool and Leverkusen are more favorites, but Roma deserve respect from all contestants because they were finalists last season.

This is not gonna be real, right? what in the hell PSG prepares 200m to buy a teenager like him? Seriously, PSG is trying to destroy the market again soon. This will fully motivate another club to sell their young, talented players at crazy prices. If barcelona accepts it and it will be a disaster for all of clubs.
This transfer can trigger the bubble for the player's price again soon. It's so crazy to see that how PSG is really ambitious to find someone to replace mbappe. The club has barcola and it sounds non sense to target thing youngstar.

PSG is trying to destroy the market again. This may also motivate small clubs to put non sense price for their talents. I think that this is BS, PSG can disrupting the market again. PSG was always doing something crazy.
It's very dilemma for barcelona whether club will try to let him go or stay.

Lamine Yamal is young, talented and has a lot of potential. But I don't think he has proven himself yet. I think 200 million euros is too high for him. In a few years, if he completes his development in the right direction, he can become such a footballer. But right now he is not the main character at Barcelona. I'm not saying it will be the same, but Bojan Krkić comes to mind. I agree with you on that. Also, I don't think we should be too hasty in setting expectations about young footballers.
From another point of view, I assume Barcelona will certainly be willing to let Lamine Yamal go in the transfer window, if PSG dares to offer a fantastic price. It is quite reasonable, because the Blaugrana are experiencing a financial crisis, so the profits from the sale of Yamal can be used to build a new squad. Barcelona will change coaches next season, Barcelona will definitely recruit new players, and making permanent the status of loan players such as Felix and Cancelo from their parent club.

PSG won't mind spending that amount, and Barcelona will have no shortage of young talent in its La Masia academy. In my opinion, this is indeed destroy the tranfer market, but for PSG-Barcelona it is good business because they are both profitable. As for whether or not Yamal price is worth that high, I don't think it's a problem for a club like PSG, their management is a little reckless when it comes to the transfer saga.

Apart from all that, Mbappe departure next season will certainly require PSG to look for a replacement, and it doesn't have to be Yamal. They can recruit a proven player like Osimhen, at a price that is not much different and who is in his golden age. To be honest, with the financial power they have, PSG can buy any player they like, but not all players are interested for one reason, Mbappe left because he wanted two reasons at once, money and the Champions League trophy.

Looking at the odds, Arsenal remains heavy favorite.

It's really worth to bet draw or Porto to win, looking at their previous match, Arsenal was struggling to beat Brentford while Porto is still strong until now. So I expect this match should ends in draw, Porto don't have to win while Arsenal will try their best to win.

I still think Arsenal can turn things around, because if we refer to their previous three matches, Arsenal consistently won, two of which were achieved with big scores. It would be a shame if the Gunners failed to catch up on the goal deficit, considering they will act as hosts at the Emirates. But if Porto plays with a defensive strategy, Arteta fleet will find it difficult to penetrate.

There is a possibility that the match will end in a draw, so Arsenal will be eliminated because Porto is 1 goal ahead. The second leg is the toughest test for Arteta fleet, his skill in formulating strategies will be determined in that match. Apart from that, Arsenal are often eliminated in the round of 16, Arteta must instill a winning mentality in his players, and must work hard to break this bad trend.

On paper, Arsenal deserves to be the favorite, they will get full support from their own fans, the Gunners don't want to see their fans disappointed and crying again. Now they have gained valuable capital and good confidence, in the EPL they have the luck to lead the standings.

Arsenal the elephant is at the top of the table again
I did expect a fierce match between Manchester city and Liverpool and it happened so. But my joy was cut short when Diaz was unable to convert some brilliant assists given him. I am English premier League fan and I am just tired of Manchester city domination of the league. I am a Manchester United fan and I will support either Liverpool or Arsenal to win the league title.

I do believe Liverpool more than Arsenal. Arsenal does not resist pressure as they can easily just give away their first position status in just next match. I would have been glad if Liverpool won but then it is still good that Manchester city didn't win.


It seems like the memes from last season are still relevant today and Arsenal are nothing more than an elephant sitting on a tree branch, ready to fall at any time if they can't withstand the pressure. Arsenal also seems to be benefiting because a big match must take place this week between Liverpool vs Manchester City and considering that the two teams are playing in a draw, their position at the top of the standings is still quite safe without any shifts. If one of the teams last night could win, Arsenal would definitely have dropped back and it would be even more difficult for Arsenal in a competition dominated by Manchester City and Liverpool.

Now Arsenal and Liverpool have the same 64 points and Manchester City is only slightly smaller with 63 points, we will still be presented with fierce competition between these three teams until the end of the season and it will also be increasingly difficult to guess the winner. To be honest, I have the same thought that Liverpool is more deserving of winning the title this season and I am also tired of Arsenal's game which is sometimes not very consistent or even Manchester City always gets miracles in winning the title. Apart from all that, this is indeed the journey of an ongoing competition and no one knows when things will get closer.
This meme made me entertained, what is clear is that the competition between Arsenal, Liverpool and City will continue until the end of the season. There are several crucial matches that the three teams must go through in the future. Arsenal have certainly learned from their mistakes last season, the depth of their squad is now better. However, they were still on the branches of the tree, not the trunk, so when they came under pressure, Arteta fleet easily fell.

However, it doesn't rule out the possibility that Arsenal can win a trophy this season, if I'm not mistaken they haven't felt it for more than two decades. Arteta certainly has the ambition to erase this curse, and his efforts were very serious when they active in the transfer window last summer. Only time will tell, the opportunities for the three teams are very open.

The EPL looks like Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga, because City has won the trophy three times in a row. This season Liverpool and Arsenal will most likely take it from City hands, the challenges ahead will be increasingly difficult. If Arsenal repeat mistakes like last season, then this meme will continue to be relevant next season.

That's a wrap for Spanish football this weekend. Aside from. Athletico Madrid,  All teams in the top of the La liga table won their games. Starting with Barcelona, then Girona won yesterday with a 2-0 scoreline. Then Madrid rounded things up with that 4-0 thumping of Celta Vigo whose woes continue as they only sit 2-points away from the drop zone. In my opinion, Girona still chasing for the La liga title is still very much possible especially if Madrid starts dropping points in the near future
Of course, this is a possibility. Girona is still a team that mathematically pursues the championship. Real Madrid has been playing great lately. They don't look like they're going to lose any points. Still, Girona is trying to win every match with hope. They lost both matches against Real, which created a big disadvantage for them. If they had been better in these matches, they would have had better chances now.
Girona is 7 points adrift of Madrid at the moment, it is true that mathematically Girona still has a chance to overtake Los Blancos with the remaining matches ahead. But so far, Ancelotti fleet still hasn't shown any significant signs of decline, so I think Girona chances of leading the standings are very low. Los Blancos had drawn several times in the previous few matches, but Girona also lost more points.

Madrid will certainly try their best in the future, so that the points gap that has formed is maintained. Girona has been considered successful this season, where they were able to secure tickets to the Champions League. Finishing in runnerup position is not bad for Girona, it is part of their success, and qualifying for the Champions League is new history for them.

On the other hand, Celta Vigo has to fight hard to stay away from the relegation zone, Cadiz will certainly try to overtake them in the future. The competition at the bottom of the standings will most likely only occur between Celta Vigo and Cadiz. Meanwhile, Almeria has a very tragic fate, in 27 matches they have never won.
