Finally and after weeks we again saw Benzema training with Al Ittihad. Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad he couldn't have a good performance and he was mostly injured or not in good form and he was injured, there was even some news about this French famous payer leaving the Saudi League for the Europe but recently Benzema was seen in Al Ittihad training with other players.


Since news emerged that Benzema would leave Al Ittihad, at that time I thought the news was definitely not true. Then in the end my assessment turned out to be correct. The reason is that in one of the news media, Benzema once said that all this news was just lies. So after I read the news, I became even more convinced that Benzema would definitely stay at Al Ittihad. Although from the start of the season until now Benzema's performance at Al Ittihad has not been optimal. But that doesn't mean Benzema will just give up and move to another club. Therefore, Benzema will definitely fight hard to be able to show his best performance at Al Ittihad for the remainder of this season.

So when saw that Benzema had returned to training with his teammates at Al Ittihad, all the fake news had been clearly proven to be lies. Therefore, now Al Ittihad fans and also Benzema fans are definitely more relieved by this. Even though in the Al Ittihad versus Al Tae match, Benzema has not yet played. But I'm sure that in the next match, Benzema will definitely play again. Because in the next match Al Ittihad will compete in the Asian Champions League (ACL) against Navbahor. So in this match Benzema's abilities will definitely be needed, therefore it is very likely that Benzema will return as the main starter for Al Ittihad.

We think on the contrary, Chelsea is only focused on this competition because only here they have a chance of getting a trophy whereas in the Premier League they don't have any chance, we will see that Chelsea will continue to fight to get at least one trophy this season. Currently Chelsea is playing 2 tournaments, do you believe that Chelsea will win one of them? while, for the Premier League Chelsea could only finish in 8-10th position I'm not sure they can get into the top 5 or even a conference league is also impossible.
In the EPL, Chelsea no longer has high hopes of finishing in the top 5. Well, maybe that's why Chelsea prioritizes other competitions besides the EPL. Because in other competitions Chelsea has performed better than in the EPL. So it's natural that Chelsea can be said to have given up a bit on competing in the EPL. The reason is, this week Chelsea is ranked 11th in the Premier League standings. So with this, it can be said that Chelsea no longer has high hopes of entering the top 5 and qualifying for the Champions League.

Maybe in my personal opinion, at the start of the season Chelsea will definitely want to compete for the top position in the Premier League (EPL). However, due to the performance of Chelsea players and the results of their matches which often ended in defeat, Chelsea finally changed course to focus on other competitions (such as the FA Cup). Because of the 23 matches they have played, Chelsea only managed to win 9 times, 4 draws and 10 defeats. So the point, with the facts of this matter. So,Chelsea current performance is not good in the EPL.


But by focusing more on competitions other than the EPL, this action is indeed the most appropriate for Chelsea. Because if Chelsea focuses on all competitions, I think Chelsea will have bad results in all these competitions. And regarding the final results that Chelsea can get, in my opinion, Chelsea could probably compete until the final match (English league cup/FA cup). But to win the competition, I feel the chances are very small for Chelsea

I have told him to focus on online gambling but he told me that he is more entertained in physical bet shops.

~Snip
If it has become a habit and the place is his favorite place to gamble, it is natural for him to insist on continuing to gamble there, even though he is sick. Because gambling online and gambling in the real world (offline) do have differences in terms of enjoyment. Because if you gamble offline, of course in that place you will meet your friends, laugh together and eat and drink together. So there is definitely a very strong sense of togetherness when gambling offline.
But if are in a sick position like your friend, then it is not recommended to gamble in a crowd. Moreover, your friend has a disease that can be contagious, this will certainly endanger himself and other people if your friend is stubborn about gambling offline (in crowded places).

So the right solution for your friend is, in essence, just have to gamble online. Because instead of endangering yourself and others, it is better to stay at home until your friend illness is completely cured. Because playing gambling online is no less exciting. In fact, currently there are many interesting game choices on online gambling sites that can play, so the point is that won't get bored quickly. Maybe the downside is just not having anyone to chat with, but I'm sure this can be overcome if find a game on a gambling site that is really exciting. Therefore, try offering your friends a very interesting gambling site. Who knows, your friend has never tried online gambling, so he thinks that online gambling is very boring, even though in reality it isn't. Because it would be very worrying if your friend gambled in a crowded place, even though his body was sick.

It was a happiness that was indeed obtained by As Roma against Cagliari, an unexpected victory and when Roma did experience a setback with the new coach As Roma could prove their strength, maybe the strategy used by Daniele De Rossi made changes and provided a space for players to be productive in producing goals, a sword born to someone will be more powerful than being used by a sword teacher though.

The match that As Roma must go through is Inter Milan, which can be said that Inter Milan is the strongest team in Serie A at the moment and Inter Milan has defeated its competitor Juventus, this will be a big challenge for De Rossi because he is directly dealing with Inter Milan, I think it will be a little difficult, but if As Roma can take the victory, it is an extraordinary thing.x
A landslide 4-0 victory is certainly something very happy. Because how could it not be, it's been a long time since AS Roma won a landslide victory like against Cagliari. All of this is of course thanks to De Rossi who managed all the AS Roma players' playing schemes well.

After De Rossi took over coaching at AS Roma, so far the AS Roma players have experienced significant changes in their game. For example, the game becomes more open, crosses become more accurate, and opportunities can also be utilized more optimally. So De Rossi has indeed had a positive impact on AS Roma. However, the big question mark is whether the performance of the AS Roma players who are performing well will be the same when facing a great club like Inter? The reason is, after AS Roma's coaching was taken over by De Rossi, until this week AS Roma is still facing clubs that are at the bottom of the standings. So the point is that AS Roma's performance this time cannot be said to be completely good. The reason is that AS Roma has never played against a club that is equal or above it. But this week, all curiosity about De Rossi and AS Roma will be resolved. Because this week's schedule, AS Roma will meet the top of the Serie A standings, namely Inter Milan. So in this match, we will see the difference between AS Roma when facing a strong club like Inter. But my prediction is that AS Roma in this match will put up quite a good fight against Inter. Because as I said above, the attack patterns and utilization of opportunities from AS Roma players are currently better than before.

Now it is open,wide open the Premier League after Liverpool was defeated by Arsenal.Now Manchester City has real chances of bouncing back yet I think despite the lost game against Arsenal,Liverpool is still the strong contender to win the title.They have been the most consistent team no matter this bad last game they had.Most likely the players of Liverpool have been impacted by Klopp decision to leave though I think in the upcoming games they will start winning again.
I think Klopp's decision has affected the players in a positive way because they definitely want to win this season and let Klopp remember this season for the rest of his life.

Although desire alone will definitely not be enough to win, much more is needed for this, and for this we definitely cannot lose at home to Arsenal, but it happened and now City must take advantage of it. They beat Brentford last night and are now just one win away from topping the table again. All of City's leaders are back in squard, and they are ready to win.
Competition in the EPL is getting hotter day by day. The reason is, the candidates who will compete to become champions in the EPL are not only Man City and Liverpool, but Arsenal will also be great competitors. The reason is that currently Arsenal has the same points as Man City. So in the next few weeks maybe these three clubs will compete very hotly. So in the next three weeks there could be changes in the top 3 EPL standings. Either Liverpool will be shifted from the top of the standings, or Man City will be shifted from second place, or Arsenal will be at the top of the standings. The point is that currently it is difficult to predict which club will lead in the EPL.

But I personally agree with @swogerino opinion. Even though Liverpool lost in the match against Arsenal, it looks like Liverpool won't be easy to beat in the future, especially this week. Because the opponent Liverpool will face this week will not be too difficult for Liverpool (Burnley). So even though Man City will also face a club that is ranked quite low in the EPL (Everton), and Man City has a big chance of winning. But most likely, the standings will remain the same for a while. Because next week, Liverpool and Man City have the opportunity to both win the match.



Apart from that, Klopp's decision to leave Liverpool this season will certainly have an impact on Liverpool players. But the impact may only be off the field. In essence, it looks more like a family affair. The reason is that Klopp has coached Liverpool for a very long time, so if Klopp leaves Liverpool, the Liverpool players will definitely feel lost. However, on the field, I don't think this will have a big impact on the players' performance. Because in this context I agree with @Inwestour. So in essence, now is the Liverpool players' last moment with Klopp, therefore Kloop's final impression with the Liverpool players must not be disappointing.

Cristiano Ronaldo is currently injured and I'm yet to confirm if he'll be fit enough to feature for his club as they play against their Saudi Pro League rival Al Hilal later this week. Just two days ago, Lionel Messi's Inter Miami played against Al Nassr but were humiliated with an embarrassing result as they were thumped with a 6:0 scoreline and after Lionel Messi was introduced after the 80th minute mark, Inter Miami still failed to find the back of the net.
This proving Saudi Professional League, Al Nassr, and Cristiano Ronaldo is better than MLS, Inter Miami and Lionel Messi. Yet people still saying Messi has more Burger d'Or and World Penalty Cup.
Yes, actually, if we talk about the quality of the league currently occupied by Messi and Ronaldo. It is clear that the quality of the league where Ronaldo plays (SPL) is superior to the quality of the league where Messi plays (MLS). However, when talking about awards received by Ronaldo or Messi individually, Messi is indeed superior to Ronaldo, especially regarding the Ballon d'Or trophy and the world cup trophy. But when it comes to individual abilities or skills, in my opinion Ronaldo is clearly superior to Messi. Because it can be seen from his productivity in scoring goals. Because
In almost every match with Al Nasr, Ronaldo always scores goals. So in my opinion, it would not be wrong to say that currently Ronaldo is better than Messi.

Because when talking about the world cup trophy and the Ballon d'Or. Actually, it wasn't Messi's own result. But that's thanks to hard work with the team (country or club). So in essence, Messi is always lucky to have a very good playing partner. So this made him even more carried upwards. But for now, it looks like Messi is not having much luck with his club partners. Because currently in MLS, Inter Miami doesn't seem to be performing well enough. Even though Messi is in it, this may not have a big impact if his teammates are not good.

Al Nassr is the closest team that could rival Al Hilal for the title and they have 7 difference points but i think it's not easy to cut their gap points because just like i said before Al Hilal is too consistent and they have good balanced to attack and defense and it proven from their records because Al Hilal only conceded 9 goals and scores 59 goals during this season so it's hard for Al Nassr keep up Al Hilal and if we talking about Al Hilal opponent after competition break they will fight against Al Raed and obviously this is easy match for Al Hilal because Al Raed is not consistent and during this season Al Raed have already gets 10 loses so obviously Al Hilal will be able to resumes their winning streak records from this match
There's still a chance for Al Nassr to overtake Al Hilal, as long as the Serbian guy is injured, Al Hilal will struggle to score a goal. Ronaldo will be recovered soon, fortunately they don't have any big match in this month.
Being far behind in points means that Al Nasr is currently having difficulty competing with Al Hilal. Honestly, I also feel that Al Nasr will have difficulty competing with Al Hilal this season, especially in terms of points. Although does not rule out the possibility that Al Nasr can win the match when they face Al Hilal later. However, this certainly will not be enough to displace Al Hilal. Because it could be that after that Al Hilal will continue its winning streak until the end of the season. That way, Al Hilal finally became champions in the SPL.

Therefore, for now the first step that Ronaldo and his friends must take is to defeat Al Hilal. Then after that, Al Nasr must also continue to win the remaining matches this season. So if, for example, Al Hilal makes a mistake, such as experiencing a draw or losing, then Al Nasr will not be far behind in catching up with Al Hilal. Because in my opinion that is the only way for Al Nasr to win the SPL this season. The point is that Al Hilal must be able to lose or be held to a draw by other clubs in the SPL, at least 2 defeats. And Al Nasr cannot lose even once.

Girona actually don't need to win La Liga to have a beautiful season but they will try best to lift the trophy at the end. They know not many people have belief in them but they don't care about it and simply play their best football in rest of the season. La Liga surpassed 23 matches and there will be 15 matches left till the end so it's worth to try for Girona.

Opportunities like this season may not be available again next season. I think they have to work hard to keep getting 3 points in every match. So hoping to win Liga is absolutely in every player so they will work hard. They have to take advantage of rare moments, because I feel Girona is likely to be like Leicester United in EPL  who won and will fail to compete for the next season. There will probably be a lot of players leaving because of bigger salary offers. And maybe the club will let them go because they make a big profit.
For Girona, now is a good opportunity to spread its wings in La Liga and even the world. Because when else will they be able to compete with strong clubs like now. So currently Girona has to fight hard to become one of the football clubs to be reckoned with in the world. However, I personally see a very clear prospect from Girona, that their glory days will last a long time and not be like Leicester City. The reason is that one of the prospects is that currently Girona can beat a strong team like Barcelona in Laliga who won last season (in the standings). Apart from that, this season Girona topped the standings, before Real Madrid finally shifted their position. So with the very significant development shown by Girona, I think this is a strong foundation for Girona to maintain its glory.

Maybe, for example, this season Girona managed to finish at the top of the standings or in second place in Laliga. It is likely that the player from Girona will definitely have a very high transfer value. So if Girona wants to take advantage more quickly, selling the player is the right option. However, if Girona wants to have a longer future, I think the people in charge of the Girona club must put aside their egos first to make a profit. So basically they have to maintain the current squad to continue to achieve many achievements. Because if you have that (many achievements), if you talk about profits it will definitely be easier to get. Therefore, I hope that Girona will not be in a hurry to take advantage of temporary benefits. However, I think those in charge of Girona would definitely prefer a long-term outlook. Because they also definitely have better and more mature thoughts regarding this matter.

And talking about Girona, this week they will face Real Madrid. Maybe this match will be a big opportunity for Girona to get to the top of the standings again. Because yesterday Real Madrid couldn't take three points after being held to a draw by Atletico Madrid. So with this, Girona's opportunity to overtake Real Madrid becomes greater. Because the difference in points is quite small.
368  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: February 05, 2024, 02:46:26 PM
Bukele was re-elected as President of El Salvador and stated that he would continue the policy of introducing Bitcoin. It is still difficult to talk about the success of Bitcoin in El Salvador, because according to surveys in 2023, the use of Bitcoin by the population has decreased significantly to 12%, compared to 2022 when this figure exceeded 24%.

I understand that Bukele is trying in every possible way to introduce Bitcoin, but this survey shows us that for the population, payments in Bitcoin are not so convenient that its use is growing among the population, in fact, we see the opposite situation when these indicators are declining.
Yes, I agree with everything you said. Because from the data spread in cyberspace regarding the development and reaction of the people of El Salvador to bitcoin, the results can be said to be less than satisfactory. This is all possible because all levels of society there need a longer adjustment to bitcoin, so Nayib Bukele's plans are slightly hampered.

But I have a good assumption about this (Bukele wins again as president in El Salvador). These assumptions are

Maybe if we only focus on the data spread in cyberspace, regarding the development of bitcoin adoption in El Salvador, maybe we will think that the majority of people there do not agree with Nayib Bukele's decision to adopt bitcoin. However, in fact, Nayib Bukele won again and returned to the position of president in the current period. So it should be used as a benchmark that Nayib Bukele has indeed had a positive influence on the country of El Salvador. Including the decision to adopt bitcoin in the country. So the important point is that the reason the majority of people in El Salvador currently do not use bitcoin as a transaction tool is probably not because they don't like it. But maybe it's caused by factors

  • Uneven systems (such as bitcoin ATM machines)
  • The government's direction to the public regarding bitcoin is not optimal
  • Or also because of other technical matters.

So I personally don't actually think that Nayib Bukele's plan will be a failure. However, this plan requires a longer maturity process. So I emphasize, if we talk about the plan of a country's leader like Nayib Bukele's plan, it will definitely take quite a long time for the plan to reach a success rate of 60-85%. So the same goes for the adoption of bitcoin which is currently underway in El Salvador.

Every dip is an opportunity for every investors, but it all depend how was the situation affect your deliberation to acquire enough profits. It is too risky to decide, but we have to take the risk if we are aiming to earn enormous profits. Don't be doubtful for every decision you have take, it is about a strategy you created, if you want to earn then spend time to keep holding and if you are doubtful then do not invest, it may frustrate you and lose you as well.
The drop in bitcoin prices is indeed a potential for us to enter and buy. So basically there is no need to think much when Bitcoin experiences a decline, because this is a good opportunity to maximize the final results. So what this means is don't think too much that after this decline Bitcoin will fall again.

But, I agree with you friend. If we want to invest in bitcoin, we all have to be ready to bear all the risks. Because behind the profits we can get from Bitcoin investment, there are definitely and it cannot be denied that there will be risks too. So in essence, when investing in Bitcoin, don't just look at the final results or profits that can be obtained. But don't forget the journey or process to get these benefits. Because currently the majority of beginners or those who are new to Bitcoin investment, sometimes don't really think about the risk factors.

But even so, what I feel and experience is that Bitcoin investment has very minimal risks. Because one of the factors that strengthens this is

  • Bitcoin has a very regular cycle every 4 years.
    So when investing in Bitcoin, every investor always has hope. because they already know that when the Halving and bullish market come, the price of bitcoin always goes up.
  • Then secondly, there are more and more users or investors.
    In this day and age, Bitcoin is definitely popular with young and old investors. Especially for people who are familiar with current technology. I think it would be very natural that in this digital era, bitcoin would be a very appropriate option for investment. So because of this, bitcoin will certainly become increasingly popular with many people in the world and of course the risk of the price dropping or bitcoin being destroyed is definitely very minimal.
  • And finally, bitcoin can be an investment asset for anyone.
    So the point is not only to know rich people. But even for middle class people, Bitcoin is very suitable as an investment asset. So with more and more people being able to invest in bitcoin, it is certain that in the future bitcoin will be even more advanced.

So in conclusion, from these three factors, I can judge. That bitcoin has more good potential than bad potential. For this reason, the risk factor will definitely be very minimal. But even so, that doesn't mean we have to be careless, but we have to remain alert and be ready to accept all the consequences or risks.

In today's match, Girona had to be satisfied with a draw against Real Sociedad. Even with this defeat, Girona will certainly have quite high tensions, because currently their arch rival Real Madrid could be further ahead of Girona this week. Apart from that, in this match Girona actually played quite well, even in the first half Girona often launched good attacks at the Sociedad goal mouth. But unfortunately none of these attacks resulted in a goal. Even though there were also goals, unfortunately the Girona players were in an offside position. And the same goes for Real Sociedad, in the first half they were often under pressure. But in the second half Real Sociedad recovered and were even able to score a goal against Girona. But the same as Girona, the goal was also disallowed because after looking at VAR, the Real Sociedad player was also in an offside position. So until the match is finished, the score is still in the balance, or 0-0.

It's a shame that Girona wasted this crucial opportunity. Because if they win the match against Real Sociedad, Girona will definitely have one step further to be at the top of the Laliga standings.


Then in another match, Barcelona managed to take home 3 points after beating Alaves with a score of 3-1. Yes, I think this is a mandatory win for Barcelona. Because in terms of player quality, Barcelona also appears to be superior to Alaves. So basically the possibility of Barcelona losing to Alaves, I think the possibility is very small. So with this victory, Barcelona is currently still in 3rd place in the standings. With 50 points and only has a difference of 6 points from Girona² and only has a difference of 7 points from Real Madrid¹. So if you look at the difference in points that Barcelona has with the top two teams in Laliga, it is also quite large. But even so, Barcelona still has hope of finishing at the top (even though the hope is small).

Leo Messi came on in the 83rd minute and he couldn't do anything after his team was 6 goals behind from Al-Nassr. It's a shame that Inter Miami has never won even once so far and the thing we were waiting for from the Ronaldo vs Messi final dance also had to be postponed due to Ronaldo still having a calf injury. Ronaldo, who arrived at the stadium, could only watch his team and provide support from the stands.
Is it not somehow that Ronaldo was not available for this game and Messi came on late. It would have been a better game had both players played, the game would have attracted more interest. The Saudi league recently signed many players who made the quality of the league improve, Al Nassr have been playing serious games with other strong Saudi clubs and I believe they were better prepared. The game would have gone any way to me, it does not reduce the record that has been achieved by Lionel Messi.
Yes, the match did not meet the expectations of Ronaldo and Messi fans. Because I personally also hope that in this match Ronaldo and Messi can contribute fully. However, it cannot be denied that Ronaldo is still injured and Messi is also confused. The reason is that in the first half Inter Miami was heavily beaten by Al Nasr. So according to my assumption, he chose to play it safe by playing in the final minutes. Because if Messi plays from the first half or at the start of the second half, and in the end Inter Miami still loses to Al Nasr. I'm sure this will definitely have a big impact on Messi's reputation. So it is most likely because of this that Messi was only played briefly by Inter Miami. Because he is afraid that Messi will be blasphemed by his own fans. So in essence, I personally am not satisfied with the match. Because of the expectations that I have, the match will run with exciting buying and selling of attacks between the two teams and there will also be a very exciting score chase. But none of that happened, because in that match only Al Nasr was the one who controlled the game.

But that's okay, it's also the world of football, sometimes predictions and expectations don't match reality. Because the most important thing is, now we know the condition of the players who were once great, but have now experienced a decline in performance. So hopefully, there will be another match that will bring Messi and Ronaldo together before they both retire from the world of football.

Wolves vs Man United turned into a firecracker of a match in the end with 5 goals in the last 20 mins + additional time. For a moment I thought somehow Wolves have managed to comeback being down 1-3 at 75 mins to make it 3-3 but a very late goal from Kobbie Mainoo foiled the attempts of recovery from Wolves and gave Man United a much needed away win. The game ended Wolves 3-4 Manchester United.
It was surprising that Wolves were able to turn things around after being quite far behind MU. It all started with the first goal scored by Pablo in the 71st minute via a penalty kick. From there the enthusiasm of the Wolves players became even more enthusiastic, until after that 2 more goals were scored from Kilman and Pedro. I thought the match would end in a draw, but in the final minutes Mainoo scored a goal and put MU back in front until the second half whistle sounded. It was a very tense match, because if MU didn't have great luck in that match, MU could have lost to Wolves. But fortunately the victory was still in favor of MU.
Maybe in that match the MU players lost their focus a little, because they felt they were superior to Wolves. So they didn't expect that in the second half Wolves' performance would change that much.

So,with this victory, MU managed to take home 3 points and is ranked 7th in the EPL standings. Apart from that, MU also has a narrow point difference with Westham, namely 1 point. So in the upcoming match, MU has the opportunity to move up to 6th place. If only next week MU can beat Westham who is ranked 6th in the standings. My hope is that MU can rise this time. Even though points and rankings are very far behind City and Livervool. But at least they have to try to reach at least 4-5th place in the EPL standings, if MU wants to have a ticket to enter the UCL.

I still believe MU won lucky. MU players felt too comfortable after leading, which almost lost them the match. Wolves' comeback was extraordinary, showing tenacity that may have won the game. Football isnt over until the last whistle.

With important games ahead, MU must fix this focus issue. Next up is West Ham, and any distraction might be disastrous. To reach the top four, every point counts. Not even in the dying minutes can MU afford to give their opponents room. Their defense and focus must improve for the full 90 minutes. This Wolves game should wake us up.
Some people say that Kobbie Mainoo's successful winning score was like luck, but for me it was a good talent when he was confronted by lots of Wolves defenders, but Kobbie cleverly kicked the ball right between the Wolves defenders and of course the goalkeeper was shocked. saw the ball coming towards him because it was not blocked by Wolves' own players.
The hope of MU supporters is that the club must have a performance like this, but unfortunately MU finds it difficult to maintain consistency, even after performing well like yesterday's match, in the next match they are not sure they can perform like that again.
When MU can appear with the same performance as yesterday, I'm sure it won't be difficult to get a ticket to the Champions League next season, but if you don't try to improve your performance you will only be below the top 5 in the points table.

~Snip
In essence, in this match MU learned a very important lesson to prepare for the next match. The reason is that the Teen Hag team apparently still has many gaps that the enemy team can easily penetrate. Apart from that, another lesson that can be learned from this match is the performance that MU players must maintain during the match. So don't feel happy before the game is actually finished. Because if MU players still have habits like that, I'm sure their future will not be very good. So in summary, the important points that Teen Hag must address are:

  • The defense sometimes still has too many gaps
  • Never relax attack even if are superior
  • And lastly, never underestimate your opponent.

If these three points can be applied by Teen Hag to MU players, I am sure MU can achieve better results at the end of this season.

And regarding Mainoo's goal, I also admit that Mainoo created the goal with great skill and calm thinking. However, the term luck applied to MU's victory this time means that if Mainoo doesn't get a chance in the final minutes, then MU certainly won't win. So I think this is also part of luck. Because in the final minutes the bodies of the MU players were definitely very tired. That's why it was lucky for MU to win dramatically in the final minutes.

Experiencing defeat in gambling will definitely make our minds a little disappointed. Moreover, the nominal amount of money used in gambling is quite large. Of course, for everyone who gambles, it will definitely be a very sad thing.
But for me personally, I am the type of person who doesn't like to blame myself. Because this will actually make the situation worse. So when you experience defeat in gambling, it would be better if you respond with a cool head.

Because if I personally am asked about losing when gambling, it seems like it happens quite often. But I never regretted it too deeply. Because it's called gambling, losing is a big risk and we have to have the courage to bear it. So basically we have to be aware of this. Because if we don't realize it, then when defeat befalls us, it feels like the world will definitely fall apart.

And the simplest and most effective advice that I have proven is very good for gambling is to manage your finances. Because by managing finances well, we will know where we will enter and at what point we will stop. If it is clear, the point is that the capital that will be used for gambling must be regulated or allocated. So, if for example the money has run out, then stop gambling until there is enough money to gamble again. Well, from this, I personally rarely lose big in gambling. Because the key is that I always manage the finances I have for gambling.

So in conclusion, when it comes to losses in gambling, I have experienced it. But to hate myself for that I never.

Juventus is indeed a tough competitor for Inter Milan this season to win the Serie A title, Napoli themselves are much different from last season after changing coaches and will certainly not be able to defend the Serie A title this season. In fact, I think Napoli will have difficulty reaching the top five positions, because from 10th to 4th place, the points are very close to each other so the competition will be even tighter.


Juventus still has a chance to win the Serie A title. They are only 1 point apart and Inter still has 1 match remaining. But that remaining game is against Juventus and I think it will really be a deciding game. If Inter Milan wins then it will be finished. And if Juventus wins then their chance is still there because Juventus is only 1 point behind with Inter winning their 23rd match. This is really interesting and I like this kind of rivalry.
It seems that only these clubs (Inter and Juventus) will compete for the Serie A title this season. The reason is that Milan is currently quite far behind Inter and Juventus. Likewise with Atalanta and Roma who are currently ranked in the top 5 of Serie A. So for now the clubs that are ranked in the top 5 (Milan, Atalanta and Roma) would probably be better if their ranking was maintained so that they remained afloat. will not be replaced by the club. other. Because if these clubs want to catch up with Inter and Juventus, it looks like they won't be able to catch up. The reason is that Inter and Juventus are in very good performance.

Apart from the tight competition between Inter and Juventus, Napoli's fate this season, I think it is very likely that they will experience a decline in ranking. The reason is, Napoli's current performance is 90 degrees different from last season's performance. The reason is, last season Napoli appeared very impressive and managed to become Serie A champions. However, this season Napoli is not performing well. The reason is that even though they face weak clubs, Napoli sometimes draw and almost lose. Maybe because Napoli's change of coach had a negative impact on their performance.

And regarding Inter Milan's match against Juventus, of course this match will really determine which club will become champions in Serie A. Maybe more precisely it will be a clear picture for the future. Because in fact, if in this match one of the clubs (for example Juventus) loses, of course that club still has the opportunity to continue to displace the top club (Inter) from the top of the standings. However, the point is that the winner of this match will have a greater chance of becoming Serie A champion.
So we have to watch it and not miss this big game.

I don't think if Messi could sleep well yesterday because his team got the worst result they could even get against an Arabian team. Inter Miami spent lots of money and hired many players like Messi and Luis Suárez to improve the team but they lost the game against Al Nassr with a 6-0 result which was awful for them.
Even Ronaldo was not playing for Al Nassr and they were playing without their superstar player and the interesting thing about Ronaldo was his reactions to this game.


The final result of the match was truly surprising. It was unexpected that in this match Inter Miami would be completely defeated by Al Nasr. What was even more surprising was that Inter Miami was unable to score a single goal against Al Nasr. So this defeat was a bit embarrassing for Messi and also the Inter Miami players. Maybe it's true, bro, it looks like Messi won't be able to sleep well that night. Because, he will definitely continue to think about the crushing defeat he experienced from his rival club, Ronaldo. Although in this match, unfortunately Ronaldo was not able to play because it turned out he was still in the recovery stage. However, there is no need to doubt Al Nasr's performance. Talisca and friends were able to beat Inter Miami with a score of 6-0. Talisca herself was even able to score a hat trick in that match.

So here it is clear that Al Nasr is experiencing very rapid development and is different from previous years. Although Al Nasr also spent a lot of money to strengthen and sharpen his squad. But all of that paid off very sweetly. Because Al Nasr bought the right players. In contrast to Inter Miami, which seems unlucky with the players it currently has.
So from the results of the match I thought, what if Ronaldo and Mane played? Maybe Inter Miami can be beaten a score of 10-0.
And seeing his reaction from the stands, Ronaldo seemed to quite enjoy the match.

The strongest candidate to win the league remains real madrid. despite the tight competition in the table standings with a tight point difference also with girona. but the depth of the squad including the reserve players is better and better real madrid. that's what causes real madrid to be more favored. because if the main player is injured. his coating player can replace equally well in contrast to girona.
If we talk about the overall players between Girona and Real Madrid players. I agree that Real Madrid players are superior to Girona players. The reason is, Real Madrid's reserve players have almost the same performance as the main squad. So it is not surprising to say that Real Madrid players have players who have almost equal skills and performance. But if we talk about the main squad of the two teams, to be honest, currently I think Girona is superior to Real Madrid. Even though the players are not as famous as Real Madrid's players. However, when it comes to individual ability and teamwork, I prefer Girona players. Because Girona has proven a process that has produced results. Because last season, when Girona entered the first division in Laliga, they were able to finish in 10th place and beat big teams like Sevilla, Getafe and Espanyol who were below their ranking.

So in the middle of this season, Girona has managed to reach the top in Laliga, I think this is a very extraordinary thing. Because they can surpass top clubs such as Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and also Valencia. So Girona has indeed had very rapid development compared to other clubs. Because when talking about Real Madrid, it is no longer strange that they have great players. Because Real Madrid does have very adequate finances. So it's only natural that they can bring in great and talented players like Vinisius Jr and Belingham. So in conclusion, if we talk about all the players, Real Madrid is indeed superior. But if we talk about the main squad, in my opinion Girona is the superior one.

Wolves vs Man United turned into a firecracker of a match in the end with 5 goals in the last 20 mins + additional time. For a moment I thought somehow Wolves have managed to comeback being down 1-3 at 75 mins to make it 3-3 but a very late goal from Kobbie Mainoo foiled the attempts of recovery from Wolves and gave Man United a much needed away win. The game ended Wolves 3-4 Manchester United.
It was surprising that Wolves were able to turn things around after being quite far behind MU. It all started with the first goal scored by Pablo in the 71st minute via a penalty kick. From there the enthusiasm of the Wolves players became even more enthusiastic, until after that 2 more goals were scored from Kilman and Pedro. I thought the match would end in a draw, but in the final minutes Mainoo scored a goal and put MU back in front until the second half whistle sounded. It was a very tense match, because if MU didn't have great luck in that match, MU could have lost to Wolves. But fortunately the victory was still in favor of MU.
Maybe in that match the MU players lost their focus a little, because they felt they were superior to Wolves. So they didn't expect that in the second half Wolves' performance would change that much.

So,with this victory, MU managed to take home 3 points and is ranked 7th in the EPL standings. Apart from that, MU also has a narrow point difference with Westham, namely 1 point. So in the upcoming match, MU has the opportunity to move up to 6th place. If only next week MU can beat Westham who is ranked 6th in the standings. My hope is that MU can rise this time. Even though points and rankings are very far behind City and Livervool. But at least they have to try to reach at least 4-5th place in the EPL standings, if MU wants to have a ticket to enter the UCL.
378  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: At a range of 2years, can a Bitcoin literate invest with a borrowed fund in BTC? on: February 01, 2024, 04:04:22 AM
~Snip

Now, I have a friend who is educated about Bitcoin digital currency but doesn't have the capital to invest on it. Meanwhile... He is considering to take loan from his relative to pay back within the range of 2years.
This is to say he would have such range of time without a panic to pay back.

~Snip
This issue is often the subject of long debate. Because investing in bitcoin with borrowed capital is not recommended. Even though the person running it already has extensive knowledge about Bitcoin, the risks are still very large. Because you need to remember it
that no one knows what Bitcoin will look like in the next 2 or 3 years. The possibility could continue to develop or even experience setbacks. So this is where the role of capital used will be very useful to minimize risks that may occur. Indeed, if you look at Bitcoin today, it looks like Bitcoin will continue to experience good growth in the future. But you need to remember, don't just think about the good side, but the bad side must also be remembered and taken into account.
Because if we invest in an asset, including bitcoin, the calculations must be complete and not only think about the good side. Because in an investment there are always two possibilities that can happen.

So even though your friend has mastered and has extensive knowledge about Bitcoin, this is of course not enough and there are still shortcomings. Because for example, right now your friend is borrowing money from his relatives to invest in bitcoin. Then your friend promises his relatives that he will pay the debt within 2 years. Of course this will affect his mentality. But even so, the possibility of making a profit is also not small. Because currently bitcoin is in the right condition for the time of purchase. Because the Halving and Bullish Market will definitely arrive soon. For this reason, at this time bitcoin investors have the opportunity to make a profit. So at that time the opportunity to make a profit will be very big for you friend. However, my advice to your friend is, don't wait 2 years to pay off the loan. Because it would be better if, for example, your friend has made a profit, then the loan money must be returned immediately.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will not share the field during the friendly between Al-Nassr and Inter Miami, as the Portuguese striker continues to recover from a calf injury.

Ronaldo's injury caused his Saudi Arabian club to cancel two friendlies in China last week.

~Snip
This January, Ronaldo suffered a muscle injury so that his scheduled trial match with the Chinese club failed. But even so, I read the latest news that Ronaldo has now recovered and is ready to be used in the match against Inter Miami. Maybe Ronaldo's muscle injury is not too serious. However, the reason the agenda for going to China was canceled was most likely because Al Nasr prioritized the match against Inter Miami. Because this match will definitely be more important than matches against Chinese clubs. That's why Ronaldo's injury was a big reason for Al Nasr canceling his trip to China. Maybe all this was done so that Ronaldo could quickly recover from his injury and be able to play against Inter Miami. Because basically, even without Ronaldo, I think Al Nasr can definitely fly to China and can definitely fight the clubs there with satisfactory results. Therefore, it is clear that Al Nasr is indeed preparing his team to face Inter Miami. And fortunately, Ronaldo has now recovered from his injury.

Quote
It is reported that Ronaldo will soon make a comeback to the field after being injured throughout January 2024. This is also reinforced by the latest video upload on Al Nassr's Instagram. It can be seen that Ronaldo has been training with his colleagues.

With this news, Ronaldo will certainly be involved in the match against Inter Miami. Because it would be less interesting if, for example, Ronaldo did not take part in the match. Because Ronaldo and Messi will definitely be the spearheads for both teams. So if, for example, one of the spearhead teams doesn't participate, it definitely won't be fun.

After capturing a really good advantage over Juventus Inter are going to host them this Sunday as well. In case Inter win this game and their absent game both the point gap will go up to 7 all of a sudden. I think Juventus wouldn't be able to catch up with Inter anymore after that. Because Inter really don't look like they will stumble that easy for a long time.

Therefore this game is very critical for Juventus side. Allegri couldn't beat them in their previous head-to-head. Here they should be able to get one point at least. But if you ask me about how much I trust them on that I would say not much.  Grin
Yes, the upcoming Inter versus Juventus match will indeed be a life and death match for both parties. Especially for Juventus, who have now been surpassed by Inter, this match will definitely be very important for them. The reason is, if for example Juventus lose this match, then this will indeed be a setback in their journey to become the top of the Serie A standings. The reason is that Inter, the top of the standings, and Juventus, who are in second place, have a very small difference in points (1). So if Inter wins the next match, then it is certain that Inter will most likely win the Scudetto this season.

Then if you look at the statistics for Inter and Juventus, currently Inter is indeed superior to Juventus. But surprises can happen during the game. The reason is that Juventus will definitely not give up in continuing to fight for the Scudetto this season. The reason is that for several seasons Juventus has always failed to become Serie A champions and of course it has been a long time since Juventus wore the Scudetto on the jersey they wore. So Juventus' chances this season are actually much greater than last year's season. Therefore, Juventus will definitely perform optimally against Inter.

And my prediction for the match, 60% Inter Milan wins and 40% Juventus wins. Then I think the possibility of a draw will be very minimal, so in my opinion the upcoming match will not end in a draw.
