Now the championship race is more like among Bayern Munich, Union Berlin and Dortmund now.

Because the biggest gap among these teams is only three points. Union Berlin are the biggest surprise team in the season among them of course. They were even the leader previously but they lost a couple of positions due to starting a bad form. But still they made a big effort again and climbed to the second position. It looks like they are very determined to stay in this competition until the end. The championship run is just lovely in the Bundesliga now.

I think that Union Berlin is superfluous here. The only way it can stay here I see is this: Bayern and Dortmund continue their performance in the Champions League until the later stages, and Union Berlin loses to Ajax in the Europa League and completely concentrates on the Bundesliga. But even in this case, it will remain an underdog.

Maybe you will turn out to be right about that in time. Because Union Berlin haven't been in this kind of a situation all the time so far. There have been ups and downs for them during the season. I don't know how long they can keep up this chase for the league title. I just assessed the situation considering the current placements in the standings.

Dortmund are making me really surprised by the way. Normally the Bundesliga title is not their main target according to their vision. But now they are very close to the leader and let's see how things go in the coming weeks.
It's only 14 games left ... union berlin has proven that they are pretty consistent enough to at least finish the season at top 5 at least and get the champions league slot for the first time , they jad that ability for sure if you look at the 20 matches they have played.

I have no doubt that union berlin would keep going , despite to win the title it's a bit tough, finished top 5 might be guaranteed for them.

Its been four rounds since liverpool team managed to win in the premiere league i think today game is the perfect opportunity to get the three points since they will be playing at home against everton one of the relegation zone teams, except last round win against arsenal, everton team didn't show much this season so i think liverpool odds are a good deal to win some money.
Unfortunately Liverpool are not really ready for this match because there may be problems that prevent their team from playing to their full potential, but I hope Liverpool can show their strength in this match to win against Everton.

What are their problems at the moment? Well, apart from the fact that they are in 10th place in the standings, although it's only a matter of time... This season Liverpool are clearly showing their worst form in the last few years, and as for the match against Everton, it's hardly surprising, I think either a draw or victory for Liverpool, against Everton them looks great and there seem to be no problems before the match
Just like Chelsea, Liverpool's players are unique, but as a team, they seem to be so vulnerable. Even more vulnerable than Chelsea if one should compare their energy to their previous matches.
As regards their match with Everton today, I already knew they will win cuz it will be their 2nd win in the last 8 matches, and would have become difficult for Clop to face the management and fans if he loses it.
The 9th and 10th place seems getting hot lol.

Liverpool and chelsea in similar misery situation where they can't recover quickly in a tough situation for having a couple match wins out of each 12 matches for liverpool and chelsea , sad to see if the two can't finish top 5 to get the european competition tickets , unless of course if they could be able to lift the champions league by the end of the season.

The first half between Sampdoria against Inter looks like it will end with a score of 0-0.
Inter dominated the game for sure in this case, but admittedly they have found it very difficult to convert their chances so far. There were a lot of really good chances in this first half but none of them could be converted into goals.
But even so, the win will still be Inter I think in this game because it's only a matter of time really for them.
Inter just missed another opportunity again,  I don't know why it is difficult for them to coverts good chances into goals. I didn't expect this game to end up this way. This game is a lose for Inter which they should have used to increase their point.
A boring end of 0 - 0 against team like Sampdoria is surely the biggest shock for the Inter because right now they are at the second spot and having good team which can do good performance in all level matches.

But, this is surely having not ideal end of this match with 25 shots on goal and having 5 on target but still no one was able to convert them into goals mean they are lacking of conversation and this is surely not good as now we are heading for the last phase of this season and three teams are in hunting for bringing them down from second spot which is now looking possible because if they are not going to have converted their chances into goals then surely they can face consequences which could be not ideal while we have good improvement in few teams performance at the top of league table for having better end of this season.
Well even if inter managed to win every single match at the rest of the season ... it's really super hard to stop the unbeatable napoli , the Khvicha Kvaratskhelia x Victor Osimhen duo are really hot aand can't stop scoring to dominate the serie A this season , crazy duo.

With the inter draw ... it's 15 points clear for napoli.

Chelsea hasn't been winning games but they haven't been playing badly of recent so don't expect Chelsea to be the underdogs against Dortmund. When we talk about the champions league experience, Chelsea has more than Dortmund so they should be having the upper hand. Also looking at the individual teams, Chelsea has a superior team and form what I see form their recent games, they have finding some chemistry between them and them knowing that the game against Dortmund is a very important games, I think they'll turn up more.

Chelsea last game in the premier league which they played against West Ham, saw Chelsea score 3 goals within 16 minutes of play but two was ruled out for offside. Chelsea now has an attacking force that is capable of scoring goals so that should be able to upset Dortmund plans of progressing to the next stage of the competition.

 

If you look at the results of the last 10 matches of the two teams in all competitions, I think Chelsea still won't be able to beat Dortmund. It's not only Chelsea's performance issues that are taken into consideration, in my opinion the Chelsea players still lack coordination and often miss communication between players. Meanwhile, Dortmund have now appeared so consistent and the return of Sebastien Haller has made the attack line even more frightening.

Moreover, Chelsea only won 2 wins and for Dortmund they won 7 wins, with a result like this it is certain that they will experience failure in the UCL. Chelsea's first leg match must fly to Signal Iduna Park which is Dortmund's home ground. I think this season will be a very difficult season for Graham Potter and all of his players.

Surprises are possible in any pair, and in a pair of Dortmund - Chelsea, all the more because since the pair is more or less equal (on paper) and any team can win. But I am surprised how the fans deny the obvious (the pictures show very well which team is in good shape and which is not) and believe in a miracle until the very end and talk about some kind of outsider upper hand.
Statistically .. there is no hope for chelsea to win the match away from home.

Especially to play away in front of 81,000 dortmund supporters , crazy how the opponent players shaking and nervous , But you know we are talking football that often provide us surprises unexpected result , i wish it did happened though.

I didn't like Barcelona's performance against Villarreal at all. Because there wasn't the usual dominance by Barcelona side. Even ball possession statistics were very close to each other. Villarreal even had more goal attempts than their opponent but it was still not enough for scoring any goal. It must be due to their being out-of-form these days.

But still Barcelona found a way to win this game by 1-0 away. They are literally unstoppable recently and these points are very valuable for the league title as well.
Barcelona's game is not good, but at least they managed to get a win and didn't end in a draw or defeat, Barcelona should have got a lot of goals from Villarreal but in reality Barcelona struggled to do that and couldn't get many additional points from this game.
Villareal had a bad weeks .. losing 3 games in the last 3 matches and i thought barcelona would get a better result than 0-1 winning away ... for sure it's a bit intense especially if you put the money on barcelona to win in a low odds , luckily villareal can't score any.

11 points away from real madrid with this point and it's a clear one now!

I don't really know what's happening with Arteta's boys these days with there low performance, losing to Everton and drawing to Brentford is not going to help them if they want to win the trophy. Most of the rivalry fans that don't think Arsenal will win the league with their amazing form and is like there words are going as expected, the Gunners need to prove them wrong and with how they have played in previous games I still find it hard believe that they can match Man City, it will be a very bad evening for Arteta when his boys comes face to face with the Citizens.
Well they down too deep if they can't handle the situation.

Manchester city going after them with 3 points gap now , arsenal should be worry about that as manchester city had that capability , arsenal doing the arsenal thing .. to upset everyone in a huge hype. It's the time and i knew it .. atsenal at some point would just get the downfall sooner or later.

Real madrid would sure shop big next summer.

As it's like a routine for them especially this season they have not sign much players to boost the squad power and as for the result .. they are slipped in the domestic league and a bit worrying facing the champions league with such squad attitude to have quite bad form. Bellingham would fit very well to replace modric.
Jude Bellingham for Modric?

So why exactly did Real Madrid spend on tchouameni and Camavinga?
Wait, sometimes even Federico Valverde can play midfield. So Who are you going to bench when bellingham comes in?

Personally, i don't think there is any urgency in that position. There's a lot of cover there.
You know what? In a huge and tight competition you can't let the players too comfortable in a guaranteed place at certain position , it would make the player won't make any improvent but a stuck development , unlike if you put a competition to grab 1 key position.

In this case .. having 3 midfielder in a 4-3-3 formation doesn't mean you only need 3 right? Bellingham would put a real competition to the real madrid midfielder players, good for development.

Prior to the beautiful header of Olivier Giroud, the match was could go to either team. AC Milan is again not performing at its best, but Giroud saved the day for them. In their subsequent matches, Milan will undoubtedly improve. However, the fact that Olivier Giroud is still performing at a high level despite his age left me awestruck. He is, in my opinion, underrated and one of the best headers in football. Even though Milan is not my favorite team, I always look up to Olivier Giroud and admire him.
Giroud always shows his ability in every match. We can see that Giroud became the hero of Milan's victory after his goal in the second half successfully brought Milan to beat Torino in that match. This will be a good capital for Ac confidence. Milan will be in the UCL in the middle of this week.

Milan still hold on to third place but there is a lot of competition for the first, second and third places so it is doubtful how long they will be able to hold onto their position.AC Milan have been playing very well so far and are winning their own games but their style of play is not very favorable so they can get out of position at any time. But hopefully they will correct themselves before they are knocked out of their position
AC Milan finally managed to return to winning ways after several consecutive defeats. Maybe for now defending the Scudetto title is a very difficult thing, but at least finishing in the Champions League zone is something that is still realistic for Milan to get.

It's like a french wine, the more old .. the more sexy he is.

He fit really well into serie A playing style since his arrival at milan , he often become the savior. Typical perfect finisher with only a couple touch and boom everybody feels like hypnotized , despite the winning ... ac milan fall to 4th place now.

Chelsea will play West Ham tomorrow, an important match for both teams, Chelsea need wins to justify the cost of buying new players and West Ham are very close to the relegation zone and this will push them to play better as further points losses will put them in a very difficult position. I think Chelsea should score a goal tomorrow because two matches without goals is a lot for them.
Im sure potter will do another experiment again. Chelsea has so many striker right now. It will become a match for chelsea to get best formation for the club. The match against fulham was not enough to make chelsea to get its best formation as it has ended with draw as final result.
This gonna be pretty easier match for chelsea considering about westham was not in the best situation right now. Westham can be considered as a threat for chelsea to lose full points this week/

Chelsea must win against westham but im not sure about this since potter will be rotating the player again. Remember a new player like mudryk was playing good on his debut but he has become a useless player in the match against fulham.
Well one thing is sure that havertz should be benched not to thankful enough on what he have done for chelsea but it's just not hist time this time .. he should be rested to push himself to be back to the top level of his form and giving madueke & fofana more time playing to prove themselves .

West ham always giving chelsea hard times , we'll see what happened.

Indeed, if 2 of the 4 players join Real Madrid in the transfer market next summer, then Asensio's position is most threatened and he won't even be needed for quite a long time. But even if that happens, it is likely that there will be tension in the locker room and it is possible that a player whose position is threatened will choose to leave Real Madrid. But if Real Madrid can't be firm with their players, chances are they will be left behind in fighting for the championship in the current remaining competitions.
I don't think it isn't about how many new players will join Real Madrid. Asensio is a winger, he competes for the position with Vinicius and Rodrygo only. Hazard seems to leave Real Madrid in the next transfer window, so actually not so many options for the wingers in Real Madrid squad. If no new wingers, Asensio will have enough time to play although he won't be the main winger of Real Madrid. But if Asensio expects to play as the main winger, he must leave Real Madrid. I assume Ancelotti prefers to choose Vinicius-Rodrygo as Real Madrid main wingers.

By the way, Jude Bellingham's position is nothing to do with Asensio, he is a midfielder and seems unlikely to play as a winger. While Haaland, Mbappe, or Kane are central forwards, it is not Asensio's position. So, even if Real Madrid signs them, it won't affect Asensio's position.


Real madrid would sure shop big next summer.

As it's like a routine for them especially this season they have not sign much players to boost the squad power and as for the result .. they are slipped in the domestic league and a bit worrying facing the champions league with such squad attitude to have quite bad form. Bellingham would fit very well to replace modric.

I'd blame the greed instead, you know when you always try to buy some expensive things like hermes bags, LV's and the likes you're definitely gonna never become sufficient and grateful with your money doesn't matter how much money you could make you'd always seeks for more, I'd say if people could stop being so greedy things will be better but I think it's just our nature so I guess there's nothing much we can do honestly.
the only way you could win in this life and having good quality life is through money so it can't be denied that people are just gonna seeks for more and more money because they feel security in having more.
however, the thing that becomes the problem is when people try to earn money through scams, trickery, etc it affects other.
People put too much focus on something subjective by calling money is the root pf evil, while actually it's you. Only you can decide whether even the most dangerous stuff like a samurai that clearly most of the times used to fight , used to evil things ... just like a gun or some other dangerous stuff.

But in the right hands , those dangerous stuff could help people , save lives and far from evil things. So let's be objective and then talk.

Bad idea. Their $1,000 might be like a couple cents.

It looks really big for us but not for them , so having $1,000 multiple time losses for those people is a small bet to give it a try while for us it's a serious one. The situation pretty much different and you can't have the same level as them , the emotion in betting required , when you go serious .. you'll put a lot of effort before placing that bet and when you just playing around to try .. you'll place it randomly.

That's fine.

We can't say that you'll be fine and the government will understand that it's just another payment method if they're the one enforcing some rule of law for you to stop accepting transactions in bitcoin.

It's understandable that you have to do it for your own safety and as well as for your business. You'll have to obey what it says in the law but I know there are folks that have been doing something like this against the law but, they're just remaining lowkey so they won't get caught by the authorities.
Well yeah , just do what they ask ... obey it at first.

Then just find a way ... or else the solution will come after you in the coming days for sure as there will always someone who figuring out something like this and get his legal ways to back in the business , accepting bitcoin in a strict country never be easy but they will just regret it later and you laugh out of it, time will tell.

Many were very bordered about Arsenal in the initial moment when Gabriel Jesus went on the injury. I'm glad things aren't working badly for them. Presently I don't think anything can stop Arsenal from winning the Epl title this season, not even the loss to Everton, not Manchester City or Manchester United. But I don't think the Europa league will favor them, cuz I have seen how seriously Eric Ten Hag is preparing the red devils for the title.
Well you never know , arsenal could fall into pieces by the rest of the season tho.

They could end the season with zero trophy despite favorited to have at least 2 trophies and having a great season to have few losses only. European competition much more competitive abd unexpected than the domestic league so yeah hard to predict.
355  Economy / Economics / Re: Keeping money and keeping bitcoins? are they similar? on: February 06, 2023, 11:25:29 PM
The massive awareness to keep bitcoins for as long as possible promotes people to develop the attitude of saving, just like saving money. Do you agree with this that people who are very good at saving money become very good at keeping bitcoins when they finally start doing cryptocurrency? Or do you feel that there is no similarity between keeping bitcoins and keeping money?

They are similar in the sense that both require certain level of financial discipline and long term planning. However, they are also different as saving money in traditional banks is easier because of its  familiarity and stability of the financial system, whereas Bitcoin is highly volatile, decentralized but has seen unparalleled returns over the past decade, surpassing other assets.

The attitude of self-discipline to save enough both money and bitcoin is actually a good character. Both can be profitable but in different ways. We can't expect good returns when saving in banks and can't make a good profit if we can't deal with Bitcoin's volatility. The attitude of saving can work successfully if we'll also accompany it with enough knowledge and understanding about how both things work.
True. Sometimes even if you save bitcoin but then exit at the very wrong time ... you are in deep negative instead a profitable green one. That's always happened. Once in our life the unfortunate moments always come , be prepare for it ... and minimize it by what so called discipline and knowledge of course.

Once you have acquired it all , you will never worry on picking to save fiat or bitcoin , both are so full of benefit in the right hands.

Psg team will have a tough game next round against monaco, it will be an away game against a team in a good shape, it will be difficult since psg team performance doesn't seem convincing recently, monaco team is currently fourth and only two points separate them from marseille so they will surely want to win against psg and climb the ranks so i wouldnt be surprised if they manage to beat them.
In fact PSG will have 2 hard games before Champions League match against Bayern.
The first game is vs Marseille in 2 days in round of 16 in French Cup which will be crucial for both teams to pass. They don't have choice here.
The second game is vs Monaco 3 days after Marseille one and this time in Ligue 1 which will make it important too.
PSG don't have a chance other than winning without doing much efforts while trying to avoid injuries. Such combination is unlikely to occur and who knows how PSG will deal with these issues..
Mbappe, sergio ramos and now neymar get injured recently , psg can't lose it all at once .. the tight schedule makes anybody who become a coach would be in confusing dizzy situation , they need to win it all and there is a huge risk in it as well , there is no best option.

There is only a now or never , do it 100% now with 100% risk as well. Tough one.

By managing risks, having a clear exit strategy, and avoiding the temptation of FOMO, traders can overcome their fears and become successful. By embracing these fears, traders can make informed decisions, capitalize on opportunities and achieve their trading goals.
Yes, your suggestions to overcome all types of fear are sounding like a complete and practical ones for all beginners in crypto trading. In my experiences, if you want to trade confidently then you must need enough experiences and if you are really have seen similar market scenarios previously then you will never get afraid of it and can easily find right timing for good profits. It means knowledge and experiences are playing good role in overcoming fear factors.

Moreover, automate the trading process is kind of engaging bot to trading might be working only for few market conditions as one trading strategy cannot cover all different market conditions. I agree botting will help to overcome the fear but may not remain profitable through out years.
Pretty simple , just manage all of those fears...

And convert it to profit , step by step .. you might find yourself in the right direction , just face every obstacle and find a way , being incorrect predicting is just normal .. the one that not normal is when you do incorrect predicted multiple times and you learn nothing , that's the start of the problem.

Rayo Vallecano just assumed the 5th position in La Liga standings after achieving their 3rd win in the last 5 matches. Villarreal is in poor form but I think The fixture between Vallecano and Villareal will decide if Villareal will join in the fight for the top 4 positions in the standing, but till then The fight is going to be between Real Sociedad, Atletico Madrid, and Rayo Vallecano who seems to be in a very good form presently.
The last time rayo meet villareal , they beat villareal away from home.

They had really great weeks to climb up to the top 5 now. Could be their season wonder to finish at the champions league spot if they can maintain the current form and kick atletico or real sociedad out of the competition , the journey is still far away but it's there for grab!

Have any of you watched Monza Vs Sampdoria match? I felt fooled in this match, took +0.25 in the second half for Sampdoria, then the score became Monza 1 - 2 Sampdoria in the 58th minute, I thought I had won my bet in this match, but at the end of the match Monza got a penalty, and I fail to earn my full bet winnings. I thought if something strange happened there, would anyone feel the same?
Well , the loss feeling will always be the same for everyone , you will feel cheated .. something feel odd etc. Moving on , you failed to get the full winning and just accept that fact. Despite serie A is one of the most corrupted league and deserve a suspecting .. this time is just an ordinary one i must say.

The 90+9' goal is something like a routine in serie a, it's hurt for sure.
