3901  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 31, 2023, 10:47:19 AM
And most people are willing to take that risk because they hope to win from gambling. That's why they even want to use the money to pay bills to play gambling. Because of that hope, he loses and can't pay the bills. It must have made him regret not being able to prevent himself from gambling but it all happened and he could only regret it.
Everyone who gambles will have risks, and the risks of each gambler vary depending on their habits every time they do it, for example there are some of them who are accustomed to betting with high stakes, the risks they will receive are also high, and vice versa if they win. The impact of risk will result in regret, and every gambler will definitely feel regret at a certain level. Their level of regret and risk will depend on how much they expect to win. It is wrong if someone takes shortcuts to get a loan to gamble, there is a lot of pressure when they try to do that to fulfill their lust. Regret will definitely be felt, and if they don't stop the borrowing habit soon then they will feel the stress of being in debt.
High or low bets will not give a higher chance of winning because it depends on our analysis or luck. The difference is in the results we will get. If we win, we win a lot of money. If we lose, we lose a lot of money. In addition, the bets we place will impact us, whether the results win or lose. But if we lose a lot, we must regret it because we have lost a lot of money. And if someone borrows money to gamble, he should be very sorry when he suffers a big loss where he still has to return the money he borrowed. Regret comes last after we get results that don't match what we expected.

Well it won't affect anything at all, I mean gambling is just about luck, the size of the money we bet can't increase our chances of winning. But there are also some of them who do it with a large amount of bets, because as you said above that if our bet is large then if we are lucky our victory will also be very large, and vice versa if we lose then we will experience a large loss according to the amount we bet. As I have said before that it is impossible if someone does not feel regret when they lose. Borrowing is not a good option to make a choice, I will go back to saying that there is no better step except to stop, starting with increasing rest time, reducing association with those who are still actively gambling, adding other activities to daily life. I've tried this and it's a great way to stay away from gambling.
3902  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 31, 2023, 10:16:55 AM
Yes, that's true, there are only 3 options that are possible, moving to Al-Hilal because he is tempted by big money, to Real Madrid to support his career or to stay at PSG because there is no other way out, it is very possible than rumors to the team team which in my opinion is also very very unlikely.

Mbappe's drama is quite tough even from last season, it can't be separated because he is a young player with great potential so he is so valuable that makes this drama even more intense.


With the three options you mentioned, I think it looks like Mbappe will prefer to stay at PSG following his first decision. Although many of the Arab League clubs want his arrival but still he will not go to a place that is not his destination, if indeed he is willing to agree to go to Arabia then it is certain that Mbappe will get a lot of money there. Meanwhile I also heard that Real Madrid is not also his destination, there have been a lot of rumors circulating about his future but until now it still hasn't found a clear point. I hear that PSG have now lowered the sale clause again, I don't really know what the reason is but what is certain is that PSG want this sale to happen immediately before Mbappe reaches the end of his contract and it is very possible that he will just leave as a free agent. This is what PSG have always feared so now they have decided to lower the sale clause to attract more interest from other clubs regarding Mbappe. Apart from some rumors about his future, I won't believe too much and I will just wait for the final decision when Mbappe reaches the end of his contract at PSG, will he go to Real Madrid? he said no but it is possible.

Yes they have a lot of players and have also brought in some good names too. Imo Chelsea will make the UCL. I’m so sure of this but they won’t win the league. They don’t have European distractions. Pochettino have given them a sense of play and they’re bonding and finding the rhythm this preseason. They will make the CL, people are underestimating what being totally out of Europe brings in term of squad's fitness. It's three teams that one can boldly say are ahead of them.
In the next season, Chelsea cannot be underestimated with their new squad, but Chelsea just needs to focus better on a position that can bring them into the UCL next season. Because I'm also not sure that Chelsea can win the Premier League next season, but if it's just fighting for the top four in the standings, I think it can be very possible for Chelsea. With a new coach at Chelsea, they will definitely have a different spirit next season, especially in terms of trying to be in a better position.

For the Premier League next season I am not at all sure that Chelsea will be able to become champions at the end of the season. I see Chelsea have now shown changes and progress little by little, but to shift the position of Manchester City is too heavy with the current conditions, it is true that occupying the top five positions is very possible for them. Pochettino is now very serious about his work, some new ammunition has been brought in and I see now Pochettino has managed to form chemistry with his players so it is not too difficult to form cohesiveness on the pitch. Chelsea will rise soon but not for this season, but for the next few seasons when Pochettino has managed to perfect all sides in his squad.
3904  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 30, 2023, 06:30:40 PM
For the Champions League, it looks like Manchester United can still survive at least until the quarter-finals or even the semi-finals if Erik ten Hag and the players can show their best.
But when Mbappe can actually join Real Madrid this summer, Real Madrid's strength will increase significantly, especially for the attack line, maybe even sharper to penetrate the enemy's defense.

For La Liga, Real Madrid has become the king who rotates with Barcelona, maybe the nickname of the king is more appropriate in La Liga, not the Champions League.
Right now I'm not going to go so far as to talk about whether or not they'll be able to perform at their best in the Champions League, because I have to first see how they shape up in the actual competition. Indeed now we have seen their performances in pre-season matches, but for me it is not a real measure for anyone whether they will perform well or not. This applies to all clubs that will participate in the Champions League later, not just the 2 clubs being discussed here.
I wouldn't say no to today's predictions either, because surely we're going to have different things to say.
I am of a belief that any team could beat any team, there is really no reason that Real or Barcelona or United could not beat each other. In the end Barcelona looks much better than last year on paper, and they have showed how good they could be against Madrid as well but that was a friendly.

I believe that they will be better than last season at UCL as well, lets see how it goes first and if they actually do play better like expected, that would be something that is much better. I believe however that we can't really make it work some other way, it is just not going to end up any different. I believe that the best thing for them would be focusing on league and cup, if they can get that double, then UCL would be forgiven.
That's a good point, any team can beat any team, even if it's a match between a strong team and a weak team, which is normal in football. The difference is the chances of the two teams that will compete, and that chance can still be broken as long as in that match they show something very good for them to win the match in the end.
Sometimes luck will also go straight with the results of the match, no matter how strong and how weak the teams that meet, when luck favors the weak team then it will be a defeat for the big team.
3905  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: July 30, 2023, 06:09:57 PM
There are about 2 weeks left for all clubs to prepare before their first match. Paris Saint Germain have always occupied a prime spot in this title race, although with their current situation it hasn't stopped them from moving from their rightful place.
The question is for other clubs, there is always the inconsistency looming over the clubs that will be the competitors of Paris Saint Germain. Like last season for example, they could have become champions taking advantage of Paris Siant Germain's instability, but they couldn't because they slipped up many times.
Well this will depend from the preparation of each teams and the new signings done during this period. Lens for example let some of their players leave to generate money while Marseille seems to make some serious signing to consolidate different lines. The remaining teams made only few transfers including Monaco, Lille, Nice...
It appears that next season will be PSG and Marseille face to face unless another team popped like Lille few seasons ago.
There's always a difference, and strangely enough I see something of a decline in the moves they make in the transfer market. Like you said about Lens for example, they did well last season and now that some important players have left the club, it's not a guarantee that it will bring them down, but I'm speaking from a realistic perspective. Of course we will see what they do whether it can get better, or it can get worse.

Marseille made a good move if we look at it now, but that doesn't mean it will make them better than a club that didn't make a move like them.
I'd like to see some surprises from clubs that we don't pay attention to, it's difficult but hopefully I'll see it in Ligue 1 this season.



At this moment PSG still doesn't look promising because maybe, the situation and condition of the team is not entirely good. Although indeed, PSG already has a new coach who has good quality and also, Mbappe is still in the PSG squad. But it seems that Enrique's ability to make PSG consistent also doesn't look promising if I consider the results they got in this pre-season game. So yes, I personally think that because Ligue 1 is a tough competition, it seems that PSG will also find it difficult to get consistently good results next season. Therefore, it seems that there will be other clubs who might be able to take advantage of this situation to be at the top of the standings next season.
It's a big change when high-priced players leave one by one, and it's something that will change the situation of the club. There are advantages to doing so, but it depends on how Paris Siant Germain respond. I personally would like to see a change in the composition of the players, from a lot of star players to a club that tends to be ordinary. Sometimes with ordinary players it can actually improve performance.
3906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: July 30, 2023, 05:53:59 PM
Hard to imagine when Juventus will be able to recover from all these negative events... They have not been doing well in Serie A for a long time now, nor in the Champions League... Now they are left without European Cups next season and without a lot of money to spend on improving the club... Probably next season will be bad for them again...
I'm sure Juventus will be able to bounce back from what they've been through recently, but it will take time and we don't know exactly how long it will take for them to bounce back and get back to the level of fierce competition.
Game-wise, there's not really a problem, and the problems that occurred last season they can overcome with time. But it becomes difficult when problems come from the other side (external factors), which is what we are seeing now. I say external factors because what they are experiencing is caused from outside the field.

Last season they could have finished in second place and I can say they didn't play badly for the first time in years... But I'm sure the fines took a lot of motivation away from the club, especially the fact that they lost the European Cups... But probably they will have a chance to concentrate on Serie A... I would like Juventus to finally have better times after all the recent events...
Now that they have been suspended from European competition, they will have more time to focus on Serie A. It's not an advantage, but they have to make the best of their problems. Yes they performed well as a team, but not as management which we can't help but say that they are more responsible for what Juventus have experienced this season.



Juven was one of my favorite clubs in the past and when Juven started to decline I had no interest in supporting it anymore but in some ways I support it if Juven can definitely improve soon and perform strong this season.
There may be some problems that this club has to face but I am sure that all Juventus players and coaches will be able to go through this windstorm to get their dream to prove that Juven is a strong club like last season.
My hope this season is only for Juventus to recover from getting a ticket to the European league even though their dream is to perform well in the champions league again but at least being able to get a ticket to the European league is better.
I am sure that Massimiliano Allegri can get through all of this by convincing his players to keep performing with good performance and also have to focus on their dreams without having to be burdened with the problems that are currently experiencing Juven.
Even though it a little hard to do it, faith will not betray effort[/left]
They should make the events they don't want to experience into more motivation, of course it would be great if they weren't affected at all by the problems that come their way.
There is no point in lamenting what has already happened, there is no benefit at all. They should make it a valuable thing not to do again in the future.
They are one of the best clubs ever, so they have to show that they deserve the title.

They shouldn't falter so easily, they're one of the best clubs around. Moreover, they have their loyal supporters to please. The 12th man, they are an important factor for the club to improve.
3907  Economy / Economics / Re: Bad impact when You carry out Online or Offline Loans on an ongoing basis on: July 30, 2023, 03:30:12 PM
maybe many people are taking loans online or offline for various urgent reasons, but keep in mind that the habit of making loans will only get you entangled with what is called eternal debt and the possibility of getting addicted to making loans online or offline

A loan is required when you require funds but do not have enough surplus. You should only take a loan if you intend to use it for productive purposes or to purchase an essential affordable asset that you can repay in instalments over a reasonable amount of time. You should never take a loan for speculation or taking risks.If you are in need of any urgent unavoidable Real costs, you can rely on us to help you get through the problem. If you have a good idea or a fresh concept that you are confident of marketing, borrowing money to make it will be a wise move.

Well, as we know, in general, loans will really help someone when experiencing things that cannot be predicted, meaning like an emergency fund. Someone and most everyone will take that path in conditions where they really need fast funds. But sometimes I see that there are also those who take advantage of this opportunity, borrow for various reasons as if they were in a very urgent condition, then they use the money for things that shouldn't be done, or are uncertain, such as for a gamble. Cases like this have happened a lot and many of them have also felt the negative effects, such as stress due to being in debt and there are even some of them who have to enter rehabilitation. For myself, I will only be an honest person by using loan money as needed and will not create various reasons just to get a loan.

Have rumor with Liverpool bid offer above 180 million euro for signing Mbappe, but want to play for Liverpool not participants in Champion League? I don't think have excited for Mbappe although more expensive payment fees offer from Liverpool because can't play in Champion League competition is not interested for Mbappe. I have predicting about Mbappe future and seems accurate due he has denied with several offering from Saudi Pro League until Liverpool, he wants play with teams who participant in Champion League and have bigger chance become the winner, prefer he want stay one year left with  PSG until his contract over and becoming free agent is an easy way for Mbappe choosing his future team.
Yes, I agree with that, regardless of the big offer from Liverpool, but now we also have to think realistically that Mbappe is one of the best players in the world, of course he will really take care of his career to be able to continue to improve while Liverpool is currently a team that is in a slump and even they will not play in the UCL next season, it is really very unlikely for Mbappe to want to play at Liverpool in my opinion.

I honestly can't think that Mbappe will go there, Liverpool is not Mbappe's goal at the moment and probably not in the future. I strongly believe that Mbappe wants his career to continue as one of the best players in the world, and if he goes to Liverpool it's like he's sacrificing his own career. With the achievements that Liverpool have achieved in the Premier League last season I think that is enough to indicate that it is very unlikely that Mbappe will agree to this offer to go there. He still has a lot to achieve in Europe of course with great clubs that will continue to support his career and also so far there is nothing convincing or a good achievement from Liverpool to be able to play in the Champions League.
3909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: July 30, 2023, 02:31:37 PM
If you can do that then that is a good thing and rarely can be done by other people because when someone is already in the gambling, let alone having limits to be able to consider every bet, it feels difficult.
I see there are many people who start gambling without any restrictions and they just keep playing and betting without looking at the capital they have until in the end they don't get a profit but instead a loss awaits them.


It is quite difficult and even very difficult for some people to exercise self-control in gambling, but if you can do so it will be a very good step in terms of salvation. But we will come back to the fact that gambling basically operates under the human consciousness and most of them will not realize that they have spent a lot of money on it. If you mentioned that many gamblers are now doing it without any restrictions, then I would say that they have entered the real addiction phase. It's like they have given up a part of their life just to gamble.

I know very well what it feels like when you are at the peak of the specified limit, so it is better to do other activities immediately so that we can still keep from exceeding the limit and stay under control.


Well it's very uncomfortable when someone is already in the addiction stage because as we know there will be a lot of pressure there, mental, psychological that will be the main victim. To be honest, I always advise my colleagues who are still active in gambling to take a little break with what you said, namely adding other activities, don't let our minds always focus on gambling, it will be very dangerous in the future.
3910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 30, 2023, 01:38:02 PM
And most people are willing to take that risk because they hope to win from gambling. That's why they even want to use the money to pay bills to play gambling. Because of that hope, he loses and can't pay the bills. It must have made him regret not being able to prevent himself from gambling but it all happened and he could only regret it.

It is wrong if someone takes shortcuts to get a loan to gamble, there is a lot of pressure when they try to do that to fulfill their lust. Regret will definitely be felt, and if they don't stop the borrowing habit soon then they will feel the stress of being in debt.

And instead of regretting using bill money to play gambling, it's better for us to stay away from gambling for a while to distract ourselves from trying to get closer to gambling. By doing this, we can prevent returning to gambling and don't have to regret anything because we don't lose any money.


Self-control is the best option they can do in such conditions, learning to put aside ambition in gambling would be better. I would advise someone to take a break and find additional activities for their daily life to keep their mind away from gambling. It would look better for his bright future.
3911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 30, 2023, 12:18:48 PM
Yes, that's true, but when we meet in the Champions League later, I'm still sure that Manchester United can still give a draw against Real Madrid, so it might make it difficult for Real Madrid to win like this pre-season game.
That’s if only Manchester United can make it to the knockout stages because I don’t think they can make it that far if they find themselves in a strong group with two strong teams it maybe difficult to survive. Manchester United are not a bad side, they have quality players and a very good coach but facing Real Madrid in the champions league maybe a difficult task because madrid are the king of the champions league they know how to play the league and they now have a strong team compared to last season. If Mbappe should join them this summer they will even be more deadly side to face.
For the Champions League, it looks like Manchester United can still survive at least until the quarter-finals or even the semi-finals if Erik ten Hag and the players can show their best.

Dortmund hope Sabitzer to fill Bellingham's place nicely. There is a big difference between these two players. While one of them is more of a very young but really skilled midfielder the other one is a much more experienced decent level midfielder. Maybe Sabitzer's talent level isn't high as Bellingham but I believe he is quality enough to keep Dortmund midfield strong. He had a short journey at Manchester United and now he is back at home which is the Bundesliga.

His best times were with Leipzig of course. He couldn't give the expected to Bayern Munich but I don't think it would be the same at Dortmund. Because he can have much more playing time to show a good level of performance.
The departure of Jude Bellingham left an empty spot in the midfield, and they recruited this player to replace Jude well. You're right, maybe Jude's skills are better, but with his experience, he can make up for it. Because after all, experience will greatly affect the player's game. He can better read the situation and what to do in order to be able to take advantage of the situation that occurs on the field.
One thing I would like to see from this club, is the rebirth of talented young players who will enliven the transfer market later.
3915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 30, 2023, 11:01:53 AM
It can't be justified as an excuse for not wanting to let go if it's like that. It is impossible for a club that owns players to retain their players on the grounds that the interested clubs are from the same league. When the bids submitted are suitable, they will definitely be released.

Erik ten Hag's reasoning could serve as a strategy to assess how much interest West Ham United has in Harry Maguire. In a business context, no club is willing to pay a large salary to a player while the player only spends the season on the bench.
It's obvious that we don't want to lose big on Maguire because Maguire was bought for a big price as a defender.

I agree with Pandu Geddon on the offer for our former captain who has been transferred by Erik ten Hag to Bruno.
It is obviously part of Manchester United's strategy, but his salary is more in the middle and maybe a bit of the upper range I think. Still they would prefer to get rid of him or is there a chance that ten Haag sees value in keeping him as a backup for the season? Their main concern is definitely the transfer fee and not so much the salary. If they could maintain the loss from the transfer as low as possible, they would sell him quickly I assume, but this is like selling him at around 30% of what they bought him for. The Manchester United owners might be billionaires, but losing so much money on a single transfer is still painful.
I've already said that the bid for Harry Maguire is more business-oriented and I'm not really interested in continuing to discuss why Manchester United don't want to let Maguire go because we're in the midst of welcoming our target which is a sticker and that will be between Manchester United and Rasmus Hojlund.

Hojlund himself personally really wanted to join and strengthen Manchester United but was held back due to the agreement with Atalanta who wanted a higher price than Manchester United offered and within 16 hours ago via Romano's twitter, we got the news that an agreement with Atalanta has been made so this is would be great news for us as Manchester United supporters for an additional €70m.
Last season he only played 16 times at Mamchester United, a very significant decrease in playing opportunities in Erik's coaching era, because the previous season he always got a lot of minutes to play with 30 appearances. I think I can already what will happen in the next season, that is, there will not be many more opportunities he will get, unless he can improve his performance so that the coach can give confidence.
 
Is there a desire to urge Mamchester UNited to sell him immediately? I think he should do it, because his position is very threatened.
3916  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mistake that prevented your big win. on: July 30, 2023, 10:04:08 AM
Yes luck is a thing that we will not know when and how they come, you know we know for sure. I also not one or two times feel lucky, usually luck comes when my balance is no more than 10x more spins at the minimum bet, and who would have thought that luck came just in time so that I could recover my previously lost balance, and even I have more than the amount of my balance at the beginning.
And just like what you said, even when we place the smallest bet if the time must lose, yes lose. Lol

If we can control our luck, then maybe every time we play will be able to get a win, and it can be the main job that makes money consistently. unfortunately it's not possible to do. But that's when I play slots, it's different when I do betting on sportsbet.
If you can have a balance that is more than the initial balance after playing gambling, you have got lucky. But you can't force yourself to keep chasing that luck because we don't know if that luck is still with us or has gone. And once we see an increase in our balance, we should immediately stop and leave the casino and the best thing is to withdraw the winnings and leave a small balance to play another day.

It is difficult to make gambling a main occupation because gambling is only part of entertainment. We can only use gambling as entertainment that requires money and nothing more. But gambling can give us money after we use it to bet. So don't expect too much to make money from gambling because if it doesn't match reality, we will be disappointed.
Leaving a small balance at the time of withdrawal is something I'm used to. And it has indeed become a habit for me to come back the next time, or even the next day. I usually set a winning amount, for example 1x, or 2x, or whatever from the amount of deposit I made. I do that to suppress my greed if I have tasted victory. As you said, we don't know when we win whether the luck is still with us or has left, so we have to keep something so that our initial victory is not lost just like that. It would be a shame when we have won, then we can't withdraw anything from the casino.

Yes he still deserves to play in Europe, not maximizing his performance last season is something natural especially since it is his new club. I understand many were disappointed that he could not answer the expectations pinned on him, but again we will not see the performance of players who continue to be good and consistent every season, that applies to all players, Sadio Mane is no exception.
Moreover, I feel that his move is closely related to the coach. He was previously recruited by the previous coach, Nagelsmann, and with the transfer of the coaching baton will certainly affect the line-up according to what the coach wants.

31 years old can still be relied upon to play in Europe's top leagues, even many players who have entered 30+ are still very much relied on in their squad even those competing in the Champions League. Sadio Mane, has experienced a decline in performance after getting a long injury. Not only that, while under Nagelsmann, Mane's performance had fluctuated. but naturally, because after all Mane only one season with Bayern Munich. unfortunately, there are many factors that prevent Mane from being included in the Bayern Munich coach's squad list next season and I have reviewed them in several other posts.

What is clear, now Sadio Mane has become part of Al Nassr. at least, Mane's contribution will be very much needed in his new squad. even though it is not the highest casta league, being an important part of the team is the main thing for a player. Mane can show his talents and abilities with Al Nassr. he will also meet some other top players in the same team, at least Al Nassr is much more competitive than other Saudi teams. I mean, in the signings of Europe's top players. there are several names namely Fotana, brozovic, Alex Telles, and the mega star Ronaldo. trophy target, is mandatory for this one club in the 2023/2024 season.
You are right, even the player who pioneered many of the players who would play in the Arab League is now playing in Europe at close to 40, especially Mane who is still only 31 years old.
Now when we watch Arab League matches, especially when we see club matches that are populated by players who have played in Europe, the situation will feel Arab-flavored Europe. And there is also one big match and is referred to as the Arab League's el classiconya, namely Al Hilal and Al Nassr. If only at that time Lionel Messi agreed to go to Arabia then it would be an El Classico match volume II.

There are so many players who have left Chelsea so far. However the number of players Chelsea have brought as replacements isn't at a satisfying level yet. On one hand the new season is closing in on us. They had better increase their attempts for filling the gaps in the squad. There are so many players on their radar for now.


Chelsea look very serious to put many of their players on the sell list, even one of their important players is also released. Havertz, Kovacic and Mason Mount have left. Now this step taken by Pochettino I think is reasonable because they want significant progress for their squad so they make a major overhaul, they will rebuild their squad with new ammunition, I see this new manager is very serious in working. But indeed for now they still haven't fully found the right replacement players who can fill the void on each side.

Michael Olise is a strong target for them now but he is watched by Manchester City as well. Caicedo transfer will cost them quite high amount of money. Ugochukwu is another defensive midfielder who is rumoured but I don't know if he is as talented as Caicedo.


I don't think Chelsea will have too much trouble bringing in Michael Oise because the price is still quite affordable and recently I heard the Blues have submitted a bid worth 39 million Pounds. True, the problem is Manchester City who apparently also want him to replace Riyad Mahrez who has left, this will be a bit of a problem, and this will be a consideration for the player himself between choosing Chelsea or Manchester City. I don't think Chelsea will really spend that much money to get Caicedo, Brighton want 100 million for him while Chelsea still have other players on their radar, there are still many affordable players who have the same quality as him.

Sadio Mane had great seasons with Liverpool in the Premier League. I think he still has the capacity to play for any club in Europe. On the other hand, Bayern Munich had a problematic season in terms of management last season. Their managerial changes and transfer planning were really bad. Mane could not activate his own potential in such an environment, but I think that was normal. So I think he can play very comfortably in the Bundesliga or anywhere in Europe. However, I also respect his choice of Arabia because he will earn a lot of money from this transfer.

We know Mane's contribution to Liverpool, that's why he was nominated for the Ballon D'or and Munich are interested in signing him even though he is not a young player, unfortunately he was unlucky with Munich so his name was no longer needed in the squad and that is the reason why he accepted the offer from the Saudi club. In this League he will get anything he wants except career because there is no way to compete with European clubs, now Mane is 31 years old I think he will spend his career in the Saudi League and retired. Can't wait for Mane's debut with Ronaldo.

Basically Mane is still worth playing in Europe including playing at Bayern Munich but unfortunately, it looks like Bayern Munich has high demands on Mane. Therefore, it looks like Mane has a lot of pressure on him so that Mane cannot play well as expected by Bayern Munich. Therefore, if Mane accepts to leave then I think the choice is also not a problem and also, even if Mane still wants to stay at Bayern Munich is also basically not a problem. Because anyway, age seems to be a benchmark too so that any choice for Mane, basically it will still be a good choice for Mane's career too.
Yes he still deserves to play in Europe, not maximizing his performance last season is something natural especially since it is his new club.

Gambling by taking a loan is one of the biggest mistakes that one can make in their entire lives, it can become the starting point of your life getting ruined, you might get out of if you get into gambling addiction, but you cannot get out of the loans once you start taking them to gamble because they just keep piling up, you lose the first one, you take another one from somewhere else only to repay the first one and have some extra cash to gamble, and that continues.

Never in my life, I've seen a person who got success by taking a loan and gambling with it, and managed to repay the loan by winning a significant amount from gambling, it never happens, because gambling is not a business for gamblers, it is a business for casino owners and they are the ones who will profit all the time but not us gamblers.
Those who gamble using borrowed money are creating their own time bomb, it's just a matter of time and it will destroy them. Let alone gambling using borrowed money, gambling using money for other needs is not something I would even think of doing. The reason is that it will trouble us later even though logically it is our personal money.
Just like you, I've also never met a gambler who gambled on borrowed money, then they were able to pay it off and get more money that would later become their personal money.
Good point you made about the business, it is their business.
