It's too early to say the decision to bring Ronaldo back was a terrible one. Because, Ronaldo still has very strong stamina to play in the EPL, but, yes We can't expect much from Ronaldo,if there has no support from other players.
Ronaldo can be another success transfer for Manchester United. Another short term success like Van Persie. Do you remember Sir. Alex did not have enough patience to win Premier League again before his retirement? He decided to sign with Van Persie even Persie is not a young player. Persie help Manchester United won one Premier League, that's all Sir. Alex needed.

What Manchester United needs now is a trophy to bring confidence to their players. They are good enough for top 4 but to compete with other clubs for the trophy, they are lack of confidence.

Quote
if other players are playing well, while ronaldo doesn't play as well as he should until the end of the season, then we can say this is a terrible decision. MU still believe in Solskjaer, and maybe with ronaldo, Ole will give something good. Even, I agree with you, that this will be a bit dubious during Ole as Manchester United coach, it won't be much difference to the previous seasons.
Ronaldo has to rely on supports of midfielders because at his age, he is not able to fight for chances to score from his own efforts. His speed is decreasing and he has problems with his knees as well.

El Salvador government will on the 7th of September accept bitcoin as a legal currency within the country, can we say we are in for another long runoff for Bitcoin market.
It is only a reason to hype the market. Legal tender in El Salvador won't change the whole picture and global adoption of Bitcoin.

Additionally but more importantly, this positive news already was reflected on the price of Bitcoin.

"Buy the rumor, sell the news". It is not a new news and you can not expect too much from it.  Huh

Navas is an excellent goalkeeper, he was a key player that let PSG go far in CL in the previous season with his saves so counting on him for some games will remain even when Donnarumma will take his place step by step starting with CL imo or might be given the opportunity vs Clermont also.
Actually deciding between a bunch of players shouldn't be a problem tho, they will rotate them, the player that is ready more than the other will participate and so on, this might confuse further their opponents.
Navas makes his name in Real Madrid and he had a chance to join Real Madrid after a successful World Cup with Costa Rica. Without that World Cup, he would have never been able to join Real Madrid. In World Cup 2014, he was the man of the match in the match against Greece. He shined in the penalty shoout and brought Costa Rica to quarter final. Keylor Navas career.

I remember another goalkeeper in that tournament who later signed with Arsenal, but he failed to keep up his success like Keylor Navas.

Donna will have to learn from Keylor and surpass him in trainings.

About Messi, the drama in Brazil vs Arghentina match is unbelievable. Anyway, it will save a bit energy for Messi. He will get better fitness for PSG.  Cool

Actually I have not seen the match of As Roma with Mourinho. But if you say is true and it's still the same then it won't be good. Because if I look from Inter, to Manchester United and finally at Tottenham, all the strategies are predictable. It's true that it's a trait of training him, but if he doesn't want to change and learn then that's very bad. Or maybe the strategy will be different if he play in Serie A? Let's see it's just the start of the season.
You can watch it with match highlights, on Youtube or on AS Roma website. It's good enough to give you overview on what AS Roma looks like under management of a new coach, Mr. Special One.

What Roma started in Serie A, 2 matches, 6 points and 7 goals are unpredictable, aren't they?

I don't know how long will Mourinho be able to keep it up for Roma but so far, it is very impressive!

The premier league and Serie A in my opinion are very different and indeed Mourinho in the premier league his strategy is easy to guess so he can't maximize the offensive strategy, therefore returning to Serie A using the old formation of course will be good again because in Serie A maybe for Mourinho it's easier in some phases of his strategy, I think he is suitable for Serie A than other leagues, and the match started when he won Inter Milan with his 3 prestigious titles.
Mourinho is more appropriate for traditional tactics in Italy. He belongs to Serie A if we are only considering about tactics.

The favorite tactic of Mourinho matches with the Catenaccio famous tactic in Serie A. It makes the name of Italy football.

Believe it, didn't bitcoin reached 20k in just a month or even a day? So as long as there's still a day in this year, the price will still always have a chance to go up. And if it doesn't go up to that point, there's still always another year for it to go up again. Maybe you're right that it's not the time for 100k to happen this year.
It takes Bitcoin 3 years to get a price about $20,000 but it broke the resistance within a few hours. After the All time high break-out, Bitcoin topped at $64,000. If you believe $64,000 is not a highest price for 2021 bull run, please imagine how price will move after $64,000 is broken.

It is hard to believe now that the bitcoin price will reach 100k$ by the end of December, because there are only few months away to December and the Bitcoin price is still at 50k$, I saw that the market is good and still bullish but the time is really short I think we will see another ATH but not 100k$ it will be 70k$ to 80k$.
If you don't believe it, you must have reasons why you did not believe it.

Supply Shock supports a test of all time high and potential to break it; and Stock to Flow model works like clockwork

Usually fee would be deducted from the funds to be withdrawn, especially if you withdraw all the funds, this is what i experienced when made a withdrawal at another casino.
It is as same as withdrawal on crypto exchanges. Exchanges don't waive transaction fee for customers but some casinos waive transaction fees for users. Casinos are more generous than crypto exchanges, I don't know.  Cool

Quote
I tried to check their ToS, there is no further explanation about the withdrawal fee, if you are still curious it will be better directly contact their live support, they are very responsive, but seeing from your story, you are not at a loss so this is not a problem at all just curiosity is not it?
I advised the same: ToS, do you read it before using new platforms?. The bottom line is most common rules and questions are available in ToS or FAQ.

Pmalek did a good test: Which casinos have IP blocks in place for restricted countries?

Miners are feeling worry about that now. They can still mine ethereum but this will not be last long. Ethereum may go for POS as soon as possible and this will be forcing miners to move from ethereum to the another chain. I hate that miners were creating the inflation and controlling the governance. I hope that the holders would be able to give contribution to the network once POS will be fully launched.
They will regret that why they dumped their Ethereum in 2017, 2018 and especially in 2019.

They were able to mine Ethereum very easily in 2017 but price was $50 to $100 only. Now price is $3900 and the difficulty is considerable higher. They get significant less mining rewards.

I can not know what others think of Ethereum but I reserve 2 ETH in my portfolio. I believe in the future of blockchain industry in which Bitcoin and Ethereum will be leaders.

I regret that I did not buy Bitcoin when it was $3000 in 2017 so now I will not repeat that mistake.
3428  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 77% of Russian investors prefer Bitcoin to Gold and Forex on: September 05, 2021, 01:44:02 PM
Though am not a Russian but when it comes to reality and technical development I love the country and I wish others too should follow up the trail in support for btc, it surprised me and I feel bad when I hear some countries are yet to support the move for btc adoption, why?
Gold is less volatile than Bitcoin.

Forex is too volatile and with same risk from leverage as of crypto market but you can not find transparency with public ledger from any asset that is trading on Forex.

With Bitcoin, you can do many things. Whale alerts, on-chain analysis and more things.

Volatility of price is attractive for traders and investors but one more attractive thing is Bitcoin is safer than Forex. You can check information, news from public ledger and on chain analysis.
3429  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What about Litecoin? on: September 03, 2021, 03:52:22 AM
What makes Litecoin special is the community, and established presence in the crypto/Blockchain space. It's a tried-and-tested blockchain network that has survived all these years without any interruptions whatsoever (unlike other newer projects like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin SV). 
Litecoin is one of a few altcoins will survive with Bitcoin. They are not altcoin created for pump and dump to die. Its network has good hashpower and are not a weak one like many new altcoins.

Quote
Now the project aims to distance itself from Bitcoin with the adoption of a privacy technique called "Mimblewimble". If successfully implemented, Litecoin could gain the attention of mainstream traders and investors alike.
Charlie Lee announced its plan in 2019 and after 2 years, there is no big upgrade with Mimblewimble. I am waiting for his announcement.

Quote
The reason why LTC hasn't soared to new heights is because people are mainly focused on "De-Fi" and NFTs. It's no wonder why cryptocurrencies with smart contract functionalities are in the top spots in market cap. Ultimately, what matters is usability.
Usability of NFT are useless, it is my thought. They are created for pump and dump to die. They are useless long term.

Litecoin has good usability and is it enough to call it as long term usability? Litecoin has many years here.

I think that for this season, if the health of both goalkeepers is in order, then the principle of rotation will be applied, when, for example, Navas plays in the championship, and Donnarumma plays in the cup matches or vice versa.
I think it is what will happen in this season. If Keylor Navas won't make serious mistakes, Donnarumma will not be able to overtake Keylor position. He will need to spend a first season in PSG as a substitution for Keylor.

Quote
In any case, no one will constantly keep the best goalkeeper of the European Championship on the bench, especially while paying a huge salary because of the amount of which Milan and his ungrateful pupil did not come together Wink It will be interesting to see who they will bet on and who will be the main goalkeeper in the Champions League matches. However, football, like life itself, is quite changeable and any injuries or an uncertain game can make their own adjustments to this issue.
It happened with Buffon and Areloa years ago and results show that it is not a good thing. One club should have only one main goalkeeper for all matches. No main goalkeeper will make the defense system weaker. It is not good for the team in general because defenders need to work with a main goalkeeper to understand each other better.
3431  Economy / Gambling / Re: Roobet.com | Crypto’s Fastest Growing Casino 🦘 on: September 03, 2021, 02:52:52 AM
Roobet withdrawal feature is giving an option to their users about the speed of the transaction the lower the transaction fee it might take for a minute to hour depends if it's congested again it depends on it. If you want to take up the funds immediately it might cost expensive. Still it's better to get up the minimum withdrawal for their platform to process the transaction. Huge wager gamblers having small fees does not affect too much.
They take care of customers but this feature leads to troubles on their customer support.

Customers might not understand how transaction and mempool work. They choose option with cheap fee and sometimes their transactions will be stucked in the mempool. They will contact customer support and complain. It's painful experience for staffs because such customers don't mind to learn and understand technical things.
3432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 03, 2021, 02:47:13 AM
What makes you seem so sure the game will be a draw? In fact, Dortmund's first away match against Freiburg was a 2-1 loss and that is a result that is not much different when viewed from the head to head.
Dortmund have problems to keep their performance stable. Because they fail to do it, they fail to compete with Bayern in Bundesliga. Bayern can win Bundesliga even if they lose two direct matches with Dortmund.

Quote
In the Bayer Leverkusen - Dortmund match, at least we will also get a head to head which has almost the same results about, the two teams almost never play with a draw. Considering Dortmund's previous bad results when playing away and considering Leverkusen's good results in the previous match, then I believe Leverkusen have a better chance of winning here.
Leverkusen is a club with team working. They don't have star player, in this season and in their history but they are one of biggest clubs in Bundesliga. They have some star players in history like Ballack, Ze Roberto, etc. but generally they are very united with team working.

Dortmund is a great club too but they rely more on star players. I agree that match will begin with more advantage for Leverkusen, home stadium and better forms recently.
3433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: September 02, 2021, 03:53:26 PM
Moreover, their goalkeeper was not very experienced.
Keylor Navas played for Real Madrid for 5 years and won 3 consecutive UCL which most players cherish to. Even Messi couldn’t have 3 consecutive UCL titles, did he?(No disrespect to Messi) & you are saying him not much experienced  Tongue
The experience Keylor Navas has is one of reasons he is the first choice for goalkeeper position in PSG now. However, I believe that PSG won't sign a contract with Donnarumma just to use him as a second goalkeeper. Additionally, Donnarumma won't join PSG with the intention to be a substitution for Keylor Navas.

He is talented and only lack of experience in Champions League because since his debut in Milan, AC Milan did not have a single season in Champions League. The Best player of Euro 2020 title is a good recognition for Donnarumma. He will beat Keylor and take the first position soon.
3434  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What is your price prediction for Ethereum in January 2022? on: September 02, 2021, 03:48:51 PM
I believe that it will definitely be over 5k but that's about, I am not imagining ethereum going up insanely high, I can see it go up, but I can't see it go up insanely high.

It means that we are definitely going to survive this bear or bull shocking period where it goes up and down constantly and go into a full bull mode and go over 5k that part I am sure, but I do not think that it will go over 10k or something like that, it is really too high for right now. Obviously we all know it will be over 10k one day, we just don't know when that day will be.
It is challenging top at $10k but I think it is not impossible target. I think it is very hard to be hit but if FOMO hits its peak, $10k can be gotten. In 2017, we did not expect Ethereum has price above $1,500 or 0.15 BTC for one Ethereum.

So why the history won't be able to repeat this year?

0.15 BTC for one Ethereum and Bitcoin has price from $80k to $100k. Very possible dream.
3435  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.10.0 on: September 02, 2021, 03:32:37 PM

Vitalik Buterin initiated a Twitter discussion about the Ethereum blockchain and Dogecoin cryptocurrency.

He wrote that the Dogecoin blockchain should move to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus model.
The easiest way to do this is using the Ethereum code.
It is because those coins have a common specification, infinite total supply.

Proof of stake is nothing new in cryptocurrency and many projects are survivors on the market because they are proof of work coins. I think a hybrid between proof of work and proof of stake is better. It reduce energy consumption but still bring some production costs to mine or stake new coins. It makes investors feel coins are more real assets and won't disappear in the air.

Gas price is above 100 Gwei since May 2021
The Ethereum network can be affected by hot trend on ERC20 chain, from ICO, DeFi, and NFT. The latest upgrade does not resolve that issue completely. It fails to bring any stability for Ethereum network and Gas price.

3437  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 01, 2021, 03:59:36 PM
I don’t think Wolfsburg has any squad to win the title. They have performed well in 3 matches. In particular, their performance against RB Leipzig is very commendable. But there are still strong teams like Bayern Munich, Leverkuse and Dortmund to face. If Wolfsburg can beat them, I would say they could claim the title this season.
Wolfsburg can have a few matches or a few months with very good results but they won't be able to keep it up in a full season. Even Dortmund can not do it in many seasons to beat Bayern Munich. So I don't think Wolfsburg will be able to do it. They have to show that they are better than Dortmund and Leverkusen before thinking of beating Bayern.

Even though Wolfsburg have played quite well and consistently in their three matches this season, this cannot guarantee that Wolfsburg will be a contender for the title this season, I think Wolfsburg should be consistent when they face a team as big as Bayern or Dortmund and  if their can win against these teams, of course, the motivation of the players will increase and the goal of champions might be realistic for them this season, I think Wolfsburg's real test will be Bayern Munich and Dortmund.
It's just early of this season. I congratulate them for three good matches but as said, it is early of the season. They have more than 30 matches in Bundesliga to show and with their squad, any injury on key players will bring serious troubles to their tactic, performance and result.

Wolfsburg will have to beat Leverkusen to become the third biggest club in Bundesliga, at least in this season. Then they can think of Dortmund or Bayern.

So Barcelona have revealed the new owner of the number 10 and its Ansi Fati.
logically, theoretically and practically is the greatest talent that Barca has bet on in the past years, and therefore he is more entitled to wear this historical number because of the terrible pressure and burden that accompanies its bearer.
I think Pedri deserve the 10 number than Fati. Anyway, it is not a bad choice actually. Ansu Fati is a talented player and is a future of Barcelona, together with Pedri.

Quote
The important thing is not to compare his numbers with Messi’s numbers so that he does not collapse quickly As usual all the comparisons that kill its new owner we seen it happen before in Man United After Ronaldo left.
I hope that Ansu Fati won't step on the same sadly development of Bojan Krkic. After a few early seasons in Barcelona with great success, Krkic lost all of his confidence and ability to play his best football. He has never reached to the level of Messi and his career was damaged by too much pressure on him.

I think this choice is risky. Barcelona should give Ansu Fati one or two more seasons to play and develop before they give him that number.
3439  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 01, 2021, 03:35:14 PM
Not really yet without Cristiano Ronaldo failed in champion league, looks last several season they always failed on knock out champion league round although with Cristiano Ronaldo, never success to semi final or final when Juventus with Ronaldo, maybe without Ronaldo they can talk more again in champion league how ever Allegri ever success give final position for Juventus before defeat by Barcelona.
Juventus were lack of something in last two seasons in Champions League. They are not weak but they failed because of one home-away goal, something like that. Ronaldo to be fair, did not have good contributions for Juventus in Champions League. He scored very little goals in Champions League after leaving Real Madrid.

CR7 wants title, he wants to be the best player, the best scorer, the champion who leaded his team to win Scudetto, CL... After Real Madrid, he was stuck with nothing so seeing him jumping off the boat wasn't surprising for me and expected it to happen since he moved his cars out of Italy few months ago. The only thing that made him angry and obliged to remains with Juve is the fact that no one wants to hire him until City failed to convince Spurs then ManU stepped and caught him to avoid seeing its star playing with their classic rival.
He is obsessed with titles and the most ambitious goal for him is Champions League and Ballon d'Or. I can not understand why Ronaldo decided to return to Old Trafford and Manchester United. Because the club is not strong to compete Premier League or Champions League. With Ronaldo, they can win Premier League but Champions League is harder and nearly impossible.

I think Manchester City is better choice for him to win Champions League because they have better squad and coach. Pep has more experience in Champions League than Ole. I believe this return was affected by Sir Alex.
3440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: September 01, 2021, 03:23:33 PM
Messi arrival to PSG will actually increase the prestige of the French league and in my opinion, if Mbappe continue to stay at PSG, of course it will reduce his chances of winning the Ballon d'Or and of course Messi big name will make mbappe lose his prestige at PSG, I think more better for mbappe to go to real madrid instead of having to stay at PSG at this time.
Mbappe won't leave PSG till next summer. The transfer season was closed and Real Madrid made his last transfer with Camavinga, not with Mbappe. He has 8 to 10 years to find his Ballon d'Or and he should not hurry with this personal title hunting.

That's one of the most plausible reasons at the moment about why PSG didn't sell Mbappe this season to Real Madrid. There is no other big reason PSG signed Messi from Barcelona other than improving the status of the French League 1 for the better and giving them the opportunity to win the champions league title this season or next season. At least not a big problem for PSG so far rejecting Real Madrid's offer in my opinion.
Finally Mbappe will play for PSG in this season and I hope that PSG won't lose him as a free player. I meant I believe PSG will succeed to renew the contract with Mbappe. My belief is from the better strength of PSG in Champions League and I think they will only become stronger with Messi, Ramos and Donnarumma.

Win Champions League is possible but they can win it this season or next season with those new players. I believe if Mbappe see the new strength of PSG, he will renew his contract.
