PSG got another draw when they played away against Toulouse. From the start PSG really controlled the game but they still seem not used to the new squad they have brought in this season and Luis Enrique seems to have to give his players more evaluation after this game. The only goal from PSG was scored by its star player who came on in the second half, namely Kylian Mbappe, but that advantage did not last until the game ended because 3 minutes before the normal game ended Aboukhal scored the equalizer. This is a pretty bad result for PSG in the two matches they only collected 2 points and in the next game they have to fight Lens which was one of their competitors last season, clearly the test for PSG will get tougher every week.
What I'm impressed about the match is that Mbappe's got a goal and has proved that he's still very important to the PSG team and they would had regret let him also leave alongside with Messi and Neymar, their squad seemed balance and  also have a good performance despite the draw and i believe that with time the new arrivals would get used to the team so as to start winning matches like this.
 Now my thoughts during the match were like, if Mbappe wasn't introduced in the 2nd half that means they won't had got a goal, that shows how important he is in the team therefore Luís Enrique needs to quit introducing him from the bench and include him in their starting line in their next match because I think they would had won that match if Mbappe started,  he's currently their star player and needs more playing time if they want him to deliver this season.

I am curious want to see the performance of Union Berlin against Mainz today because i want to see whether they can able to performing well again just like last season or not and according to the odds i can see Union Berlin is the favourite with odds @2.02 but i am not surprised why the bookmakers placed Union Berlin as the favourite because since last season Union Berlin has fantastic records at home and since last year too Union Berlin still unbeatable at their home ground even at that time Bayern Munich and Dortmund were unable to beat them so Union Berlin is very confident they can able to overcomes Mainz today especially Mainz is not a strong team for them because in the last 5 matches Union Berlina can able to gets 3 wins from Mainz so for this match i think pick Union Berlin as bet option seems good choice
you are right when Union Berlin competes to host them they can always win and are always superior and if you look at H2H it looks like Union Berlin will win and for the score I predict at least 2-3 scores Union will get. and if you look at the performance of the Union Berlin players and Mainz it is very much different when we look at Union performance when in the pre season match at that time it was very strong and in the DFB cup match Union also managed to get 4 scores. from Union Berlin current performance it makes me believe that betting at -1 with odds @2.95 is much better.
Union Berlin have been Victorious in their last two previous match, getting a 4-1 win against Atlanta and 0-4 win against Astoria Walldorf in the DFB- Pokal first round, however they'll be looking to have another win in their opener against Mainz because there winning probability is 47%  and with Mainz having 25% chances of  winning and 28% chances of both drawing the match, which makes Union Berlin the prepared club to win, if you check their Head- to - head games in the last past 5 matches Union Berlin has won 3 times and drew one, losing one to Mainz and their last match ended with a 2-1 victory therefore i think they stand a better chance of winning without any draw.
 Though i think both team would score but Union Berlin would win the match and  score about 2 goals or more in the match, but if im to make a prediction i won't go for a straight win by Union Berlin I'll pick about over 2.5 goals in the match, because if both team score then it's definitely going to produce more than 2 goals from both teams.

Chelsea are rumoured to have started to be interested in Folarin Balogun. On one hand Inter are out in this according to reports. Still the number of candidates is increasing day by day. The reason for this is of course the serious improvement in Balogun's performance.
I saw that too but this is till a rumor. No advanced talk happensn between chelsea and balogun's representatives. I meant chelsea is not yet seriously approaching him at this moment. I don't like him and chelsea can get a better candidate than him from another club. I don't even know why balogun? there have been so many great striker that can be recruited by chelsea at this moment. There was no further confirmation regarding this transfer and i doubt chelsea will try to buy him caused by arsenal puts expensive price for him. I prefer chelsea get another striker.

Chelsea are still trying to sell Lukaku. If they manage to do this it would be even better for them. They can use that money for Balogun directly. Of course they are a rich team but I mean Lukaku is already not wanted there.
The hardest thing to sell him at this moment. Ziyech has become another player who left from the club and lukaku still becomes a very difficult player to be sold to the another club. I meant he has so many personality problems with many serie a fans.
Chelsea could sell him easily before but the club was missing such opportunity.
Lukaku made huge mistake that he'll really regret this summer, he's speculated since last  summer to be signed permanently at intermilan but he rather went behind to carry out negotiations with Juventus, the deal almost pulled through, but Juventus decide to call off the deal and even named Vlahovic who was likely to be swaped with Lukaku if the deal had pull through, and current there are no other offers for him just clubs like westham and Acmilan who're admiring a possible deal for the striker,  Al-Hilal who were in demand of him previously are now on the verge of finalizing a deal for Mitrovic, leaving any deal involving Lukaku asides, and that means that he could have a horrible season at Chelsea and coming from the bench, he's a player that doesn't have the club at heart and that alone could ruin his performance for the club this season, hopefully Westham might take getting him seriously because they just offloaded Scamac but the thing is that Lukaku might want to play for a team competing in the
Champions league

Osimhen is still an attraction for the big teams in the European leagues in this season's transfer window. But seeing the transfer market, which didn't leave much time left, made a big decision if Osimhen would stay with Napoli this season. If the high release clause is what Napoli wants, then no team is really serious about recruiting Osimhen in this transfer market because most of the big teams are experiencing a financial crisis in this transfer window.

Now in today's match Frosinone vs Napoli, which Napoli won in this match with a final score of 1-3. Osimhen became an important actor for Napoli victory in this match because he contributed 2 goals which made Napoli lock in victory in this match.

Now we can see the reason of why Napoli wanted to keep Osimhen at any cost because they know this player is an effective player this any strategy and any system they have, that's why Napoli extended the offer with Osimhen and they put a high price for this player to leave and he can't leave this team easily at all.
I think if everything goes like this we can see Osimhen become the top scorer of Serie A again.

@W Jr. that alone should let you know that chances of him leaving Napoli is slim currently because if you noticed, Bayerns got Kane and most other top clubs across Europe would consider getting him for a very huge price currently and he won't think moving to the Saudi Pro League would be beneficial to his career, because that's the only League that could offer such a hiuge fee to buy a player, even Chelsea which was one of the clubs mostly intrested in him can't afford to get him for his release clause this summer without attracting the FFP rules, so i think Oshimen would be in Napoli for the rest of this season and probably leave to another club by summer if possible.
 
Well as for Osimhen's performance this season, I think he'll have quite the same as with Spalletti or probably a better performance this season with Rudi Garcia, he's already recovered quickly from his injury in the pre-season and started in their opener, against Frosinone and even scored a brace, starting with such a form means he might likely get more goals than last season if he fails to go on another injury for a long time, Victor Osimhen is a very brilliant attacker with a good finishing and power shoots and getting the goals doesn't seem too difficult for most physical attacking strikers.

i wasn't really surprised by the final result of Man Utd vs Tottenham because as the host, Tottenham played very lucky and also didn't just defend, Martinez' own goal in the 83rd minute really made the confidence of other Man Utd players down.

wow, this is a match that really surprised me, what exactly is the secret recipe from newcastle now, they were only able to concede 1 goal at home to man city, newcastle's defense is really good, i salute them, there is a big chance that newcastle can finish in the top 5 again this season.

I was also shocked by this result. Manchester United have spent a lot of money this transfer season to improve the team. Tottenham mất chân sút chủ lực Kane. We could see Manchester United much stronger than the hosts as this transfer season has a lot of bad news for them.
However, that shortcoming, Manchester United should have had a better scorer. They had many chances but could not put the ball in the net. Ten Hag was wrong to choose Hojlund.
After the match Jamie carragher a former Liverpool defender and skysports pundit said that Manchester are likely not to challenge for any as title contenders until they sign another a player in another area, of which he mentioned the CDM wing and to be honest that is one area of the wing i really think they should look into, because if you noticed in match against Tottenham they could dominate in that area and both Bruno Fernandes and Mount looked lost and the attackers couldn't covert their created chances to a goal, but the worst player in that match was Casimiro he looks very unfit and too heavy to carry himself around the pitch therefore they'll need a new challenge in that possession and also rest Casimiro to undergo some trainings till he's fit against.
 I don't know why they're stalling in Amrabat's deal, they need to act fast and submit a bid for him before it gets hijacked by Liverpool, although they've agreed terms with the player, but Fiorentina might accept a deal with Liverpool if you they first table a good bid for him, i know Manchester united needs a offload some players before they could get in new ones but they need to act fast in offloading some player before Liverpool hijacks Amrabat's deal.

It shouldn't be about "MLS vs SL" because that one makes no sense, it's different type of countries and means nothing to compare them for the footballer. We need to realize that both Ronaldo and Messi "retired" already, they are not officially retired and still playing in useless leagues, but they are both not in a competitive place like they used to be.

These are the guys who won like 12-13 Ballon D'ors together, and the period when Messi was at Barcelona and Ronaldo was at Real Madrid were the times that were the greatest and we had so much fun watching them. I would say consider Ronaldo leaving United and Messi leaving PSG were the retirements and compare the two that way. They both are playing in child's leagues now, doesn't matter which one is better now, it's already over.

Too me what Saudi league did was way beyond what MLS did. Saudi league bought so many superstars and their league now is by miles better then MLS. In the MLS only Inter Miami bought all ex barcelona players. Other teams didnt buy anyone so this are very different leagues by quality.
I wonder why fans would keep comparing them even while they're in inferior leagues where they're playing their retirement games they've had their time and now is the time for them to play for fun and add more funds to their pockets so I don't see any reasons for comparism, and I'm glad Messi choose to move to the MLS over the SPL if not fans would had bring up the rivalry they had when the were in Spain and forcing two old men to over perform just to prove something that's not worth it and to be honest the comparism between both is over, maybe fans should switch to other players like Mbappe and Haaland.
 Both Saudi and MLS are inferior leagues where most european players move for retirements but the SPL has more funds and is using that as an advantage to lure, younger and talented players who are in quest for more money, that's why they were able to get a good number of players across Europe and in future it would help turn them into one of the best leagues in the world if they become consisten with competitiveness and more recruitment of quality European players and not end up like the Chinese league.

While I was thinking Manchester City and Barcelona will never reach an agreement about João Cancelo transferring this player to Barcelona, but they are very close to transferring this 22-year-old player, Barcelona last time said they won't pay too much money for João Cancelo but still Xavi needs this player for this season and now it seems he can come to Barcelona because of his famous agent, Jorge Mendes.


Barcelona are not the only ones in demand of this quality player, Arsenal also are attracted to his quality and are said to be rekindled their Interest for him since Barca are stallig on the deal Arsenal are set for a hijack and this is due to the injury of their recent signing Jurrien Timber who sustained an injury against Nottingham Forest in their last match which ended in a 2-1 victory,  Timbers injury has forced Arsenal to search into the market for a replacement and are looking to bring Cancelo into their squad.
 Barcelona are unwilling to spend too much fee on Cancelo but he's the kind of player Xavi desperately needs in his team, and the interest of Arsenal could trigger Xavi to try getting him before he moves to another club, Cancelo is a very talented and versatile player and i think that why Xavi is really in need of increasing the squad depth with such player.

 When i started gambling, i didnt make predictions myself  then I wasn't very familiar with the odds and how to go about it, i was given codes to book on by a friend who taught me and win most yimes at first because he's a very strategic gambler and familiar with sports games, then after a long while, we losr contact then i decided to start making predictions myself with some of his strategies i won some though but had several lose something 2 to 3 times a day but then what helped me was that i do take a break and try again after few days because i dislike it when i lose money and i noticed i always choose the wrong options whenever i gamble with emotions so taking a break for a while helps me move on from my lose and try to restrategise on another week's games, atleast by then I've taken my time to study the outcome of the previous weeks games and use it to strategies towards my new predictions.

The quality of players worth 100 million euros is not nonsense and it has been proven that Harry Kane was able to adapt quickly with Bayern Munich to score goals and assists on his debut with the Bavarian squad. Bayern Munich's big win against Werder Bremen with a score of 0-4 put Bayern Munich at the top of the standings. I am very happy that finally Harry Kane has found a new home ready to give him his first title as a professional footballer and at a very mature age he is even more dangerous in front of the opponent's goal. I'm very curious how many goals he scored this season, considering that in the previous few seasons he was always the top scorer in the EPL.
More than that, he is more expensive than 100 million euros. Not bad for Kane. I was quite entertained by this match. He has 2 shots to the cup and 1 goal. I think Bremen did not perform well. Bayern Munich dominated the match. This goal certainly makes Kane have a better mentality. At least he opened the League with a goal and this performance continued. So he can be a replacement for Lewandowski who moved to Barcelona last year.

So far in the first game with Bayern Munich Harry Kane had a perfect performance and in the game against Werder Bremen he can a good effect on this game he showed and proved it that spending 100m is not too much for him, however, we should wait for some more games and give him some time to see his performance against stronger teams because Werder Breme was not a team with a strong defensive power to stand against a player like Harry Kane.

I was a wonderful debut for Harry Kane and he's shown that he's adapting well to his new team and with time we should be expecting more goals like the normal does while at England, he's a very brilliant finisher a proven one for that matter and is worth up to the 100m price tag Tottenham demanded for him, Bayern Munich had about 25 shots and 6 out of those 25 were from Harry Kane and he would had got more goals if not that some shots were blocked, i think it's a good start for him even if it was  against Werder Bremen because not all player were able to score on their debut and he did even with a very brilliant performance.
 Another player that caught my attention was Leroy Sane, one of the most outstanding players in Europe and has been very important to Bayern Munich in most games since his arrival from Manchester City, he had a brace in the match and scored a quick opener in the 4th minute of the game then another at 90,

Ajax failed to defeat their opponent despite playing well.Ajax closed the first half with a 1-1 draw against Excelsior and fell behind at the beginning of the second half and could not get the 3 points despite a good game.It is a sad result for Ajax who dominated the match and had no difficulty in getting into goal position.The return of these points lost in the first weeks can be heavy, so the importance of the 2 points lost here will be more clearly understood when we enter the last weeks.PSV will play Vitesse on the road.It's not an easy game for PSV.They may have trouble giving everything to the game because they are tired of the Champions League, but I think they will win, even if by a small margin.I'm undecided whether Vitesse will score goals or not, so I can bet directly on PSV.
Didn't  watched any of Eredivisie games today, so, a bit difficult to comment. But Ajax dropping points in 2nd round already is big surprise. After all, Excelsior isn't that team which should cause lot of problems for team like Ajax. But Ajax now is one of youngest teams in league, I think they need some time until they will start showing stable results.
Meanwhile PSV achieved win against Vitesse, team which usually gives good fight for leaders, especially at home.
Tomorrow we have Rotterdam derby between Sparta and Feyenoord, should be interesting.
Well Ajax have failed to claim another 3points giving PSV the lead against them in the table they’ve had a win and a draw so far making them to be 2nd place in the table and i think it's too early to write them off yet because the league just started and they have enough time to close the gap, all they need is a good win in their next match amd the ones after, their performance today was quite impressive, they had 15 shots and 8 were on target which means they missed lots of chaces in getting more goals and would had won if they converted one more chance into a goal, and also 69% ball possession im the match means they dominated more but where so unlucky to concede 2 goals.
 PSV on the other hand have had fine wins in their previous 2 games, 2 - 0 at home against Utrecht and a 1- 3 away today, what made me happy was that i predicted them to win today and they did and even performed more than i expected, they'll definitely be top contender of the Eredivisie league and would be a serious competition for Ajax this season.

True, Halaand is not only tasked with scoring goals but creating spaces and assists. Pep knows his opponents very well, and when Halaand doesn't get a creative opportunity due to tight marking then the rest of the squad will do the job as they are evenly matched in squad depth.

The match against Newcastle in the second week will prove the depth of Man City squad, several key players are currently injured. This is the perfect time for a back-up to show similar qualities on Pep.
Manchester city are having big problems with their squad depth as they just lost Kevin De bruyne due to a hamstring injury in the game against Burnley. However, Manchester City strength in the EPL is still quite strong where they were able to play quite well in the match against Newcastle United. Where in this match they were able to win by a narrow score.

So, if we look at Manchester City in the Champions League this season, of course they really need the figure of Kevin De Bruyne in every game they play. And we hope that Kevin De bruyne can return to the team as soon as possible to help manchester city in the important matches they play in the Champions league.
To be honest Kelvin Debruyne needs to recover quickly before the Champions League gets past the group stage because they might be winning against England teams but it's not gonna be sane playing against other big sides and try to qualify for another round in the Champions league tournament, and if you noticed they've been managing to score just 1 goal i their previous matches since their match against Burnley that led to Debruyne's injury, though their performance is good and they're still pressing more but they lack creativity from the midfield to the finisher and no player could get the ball to Haaland as much as Debruyne does, that's why it's been hard for him to register goals against Sevilla and City recently.
 I think they would need a replacement for Debruyne till his recovery and i don't know if their Interest for Pacqueta has cooled down because of the huge fee demanded by Westham bit Pep has to act fast before Kelvin Debruyne's absent begins to affect them probably when they face bigger teams in the Champions League.

And Napoli already won their game with a superb performance of Osimehn scoring 2 goals.

Remember he is the target of many top clubs he still have time for leaving them.
I wasn't even surprised to see the extraordinary action of Osimhen in the opening match of the season where he immediately scored 2 goals which led Napoli to 3 points in this match. What's more, their opponent is a promotion team this season and of course their strength is not too strong in this match which makes Napoli easily turn things around after they had left earlier in this match. Two goals from Osimhen made him start this season quite well.

Previously, we had doubts about the quality of Napoli this season after being left by Spalletti at the end of last season. But Rudi Garcia was able to ward off fans' worries because he was able to start his first match with Napoli by winning.

So, if you see Osimhen with Napoli, of course, we can be sure that he will not go to another team in this season's transfer window. He is comfortable with Napoli and he can become a great legend with Napoli if he stays with Napoli for a long time.
Well it came to me as a surprise because I thought Osimhen wasn't fit enough to start in the first match of the season and what suprises most was that he came back strong and even helped his team to secure the 3points by scoring 2 goals in the match, even though they played against an inferior Italian team, Oshimen was my least expected to score a brace and he's cleared my doubts.
 After this victory in their first game, I think Rudi Garcia would start gaining the confidence of the fans and those that doubts his ability would begin to see reasons to believe in him, all he just need is a good training and better understanding of his players and they'll need to maintain this from for a very long time if they want to extend their winning record this season.
 After having such performance the last thing Rudi Garcia would do is to sell Oshimen to another club at this time of the transfer window, not even for any price and he's seen his quality and what Oshimen has to offer so letting him go wouldn't be an option currently.

Since Mbappe is getting far from Real Madrid there are some possibilities for him this season, he rejected the offer from PSG to extend his contract in this summer and he was waiting for Real Madrid to send an offer for him and hire this player and negotiations with PSG but Real Madrid wanted to wait and hire Mbappe as free agent.
Now since Mbappe is in a better situation in PSG than a few days ago, there is even a chance for him to extend his contract which can make him far from Real Madrid.


After getting a goal In their first match it clear that PSG really needed Mbappe to stay in their club for at least a season before moving to another top European team, probably Realmadrid next summer, they lost most of their big names and losing Mbappe as well would had been a disaster for them, atleast they need a player that would stand out for them before the new signings begin to adapt to the squad.

 I don't think Mbappe would extend his contract with PSG again next summer, he almost made it to Realmadrid in this transfer window and we all know the actions PSG took to make a move impossible they increased his release clause and punished him for having talks with another club, and it was the severe punishment that made Mbappe sign another contract with them, but his new clause is favorable it allows him to move to another club by next summer if they come bidding with the right price, hopefully Madrid could still be interested in getting him by then.

 After a 5-1 victory against Aston Villa I expected Newcastle to have a more better performance against Mancity even though City where favorites to win the match, they played more defensive instead of trying to attack and forcing Mancity to press more into their own half, Mancity dominated mostly in the match and missed several  chances of scoring more goals and sadly for Newcastle they've lost one of their key player Joelinton to injury although there's no news yet of how seriocauus it looks but he leaping out of the field to the bench and this could be a problem for Newcastle if the injury seems serious.
 
 Haaland was very impressive in this match and could had converted several chances but he kept having slight misses and their was a shot by him that hit the bar, he would had scored a hat-trick in the match if he had successfully converted those chances to a goal, Pep Guardiola's team was very impressive and they're beginning to adapt quickly to the abscent of Debruyne, of which I know that if he was present I'm the match, they've Probably scored more and Haaland would've had better chances of scoring his 1st goal of the season.

Relax man,, this is only the second week 2 it is still very possible that there will be changes from Erik Ten Hag for his team and he will not be fired in a short time.

Until now I personally still think that ETH isn't the ideal manager for Manchester United, I don't know if they can shine again like Liverpool under the direction of Jurgen Klopp

in their next match they will only face Nottingham Forest and they will also be playing at home, if ETH is unable to live up to people's expectations, then it's a sign that he will not be long at Old Trafford.


One goal separates both teams in the first half and Manchester City are so impressive so far and are even leading in the possession, well I predicted the to win the game so they need to lol, however that was a great goal from Alvarez, thats one player i love so much in City and i hope he gets more playing time than coming from the bench like last season, the Mancity team are playing with composure and making it tough for Newcastle to get hold of the ball for much longer.
  
 About Erik Ten Hag he's a good coach and he proved it last season all he needs is time and a good backing, aslo I don't even think any coach including Pep Guardiola would survive at Manchester United with horrible owners like The Glaziers, they've refused to quit ownership of the club and even fail to give mangers the rightful support in getting their preferred players, however against Nottingham Forest I expect them to play better than the awful performance today cause they'll be playing with the home advantage.

Al Nassr were absolutely unfortunate in the game against Al Taawoun. It was a difficult and challenging time for the Knights of Najd. They dominated the game and had everything within their grasp, but they failed to capitalize on goal-scoring opportunities. Cristiano Ronaldo and some significant players returning to the club and starting gave gamblers complete hope, and the majority of them placed their bets in favor of the home team, only to wake up and discover that Al Nassr had lost 2 nil to Al Taawoun. Two games, two losses; it's a losing streak for them, but they'll try to recover in their next game, because fans have started complaining.

LOL.. I don't know what is going wrong with Al-Nassr FC. They have some of the best players in the world, but that is not being reflected in their performances. And this time, Al Nassr doesn't have any excuses. They had all of their regular players in the XI, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Talisca, Marcelo Brozović and Sadio Mané. And they lost to a team (Al-Taawoun) that finished much below them during the previous season. I have a feeling that the Al Nassr manager (Luís Castro) needs to work on improving team bonding and cohesion.

The answer is simple and Al Nasr just needs some time.
But the other possibility for Al Nasr is to have the same problem PSG had when they had players like Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe in their team.
Currently, the best they can do is to find weaknesses and give this team some time.

Sometimes it's not about having the best players in a team, it's about playing in with a good composure and team spirit and i feel they got carried away by their win against their arch rival Al-Hilal in the Asia Club championships trophy and the really need to bounce back sooner than later, because their rivals Al-Hilal are still in the process of strengthening their squad depth thereby making the competition more tough for Al-Nassr.
 They need to start converting chances and quit depending on only Ronaldo for goals, yes the team is built around him but they've got quality players that could deliver when he's not featured in a match, anyways the transfer window is still on and since they're not affect by any FFP rule they still got time to discover their weaknesses and strengthen any area of the squad depth that needs to be strengthened, it's a good to dominate a game and it's another thing to score goals and win it, because when you fail to win the dominating the game is worthless, it's winning the game that matters more to get a point.

An regular club like Almeria was giving Real Madrid a run for their money in the first half, but the game shifted because of Jude Bellingham's spectacular exertion. The score is 1-3 in favor of Real Madrid, the time is 76th minutes, it does ring a bell for Los Blancos,  grabbing their second win this new season. I'm glad to see Carlo Ancelotti's players win because I had them in my bet slip this weekend and would have been extremely upset if they had botched things up for me, but with Jude Bellingham's brace, I have to say the home team has decent possibilities of equalizing.
Real Madrid's attack has not seen any major changes this season. But my personal opinion is that Real Madrid needed to add players to the attack. But expect the new goalkeeper Kepa to perform brilliantly.

Real Madrid's performance is good today. Especially Jude Bellingham was able to score 2 goals and an assist. He is an excellent player. And Bellingham's performance against Azam makes Benzema's absence unmistakable. Vinicius also managed to score a goal as Real Madrid took the top spot in the table with two consecutive wins.

The way Almeria played against Real Madrid was admirable. Although Real Madrid is a strong team, Almeria did not play defensively in this match. They did a lot of attacks. If Real Madrid's defenders and goalkeepers didn't perform well today, it wouldn't have been easy for Madrid to win this match. However, if Almeria can continue this performance in the upcoming matches, they will not be at the bottom of the table.
From the onset of the game o knew Realmadrid where going to win the match but what suprised me was that the opposition team scored the first goal in 3mins of the game, but all thanks to Jude Bellingham that scored the Equaliser in the 19th minutes and even scored another goal in the 2nd half, Jude Bellingham is becoming very tough this season with a good form and quick adaptation to the Madrid team, I think he'll be the most outstanding player the have this season and is currently their player with the most goals.
 No doubt that Almeria performance was good against Realmadrid and I didn't expect them to score the opener that quickly but the didn't stand a chance against Realmadrid with a more experienced Squad and talented players, i expected Realmadrid to have a better performance than last season and probably win the league trophy but I know they'll be more focused on claiming back the champions league trophy from city, which might likely happen if they continue with this form.

I also thought that they wouldn't let the third place go like that, but after all it should be noted and remembered that Australia has been an amazing team regardless besides also being the host. I think there are many people very satisfied with the performance and the event and there is still one more game to go, which is definitely a real highlight.

Has my money on Australia on this one.  I haven't lost so bad on a touny like this in a long time lol.  I can definitely say I am no longer betting women's soccer lol.  It is wildly too unpredictable.  At least on the men's side it's somewhat easier to lay in bets confidently, in this one I felt like I was throwing money into the wind to see where it fell lol.  Oh well was fun to watch.
I wouldn't had tried what you did wheelz1200 because in as much as the Australian women managed to reach the Semi-finals they squad wasn't all that very strong the Swedish women looks tougher and even disqualified the Korean women that seemed like the trophy winners at the group stage of the tournament and even playing through the knockouts stage, it was a beautiful performance for Sweden and the deserved the third place.
 Everyone is looking forward to the finals between Spain and England, well it's going to be a very tough one and interesting also because the both teams are the strongest in the competition, predicting it is tough for me but I'm in support of England to win the Trophy even though I know Spain stand a better chance with a more stronger squad.

Sadly a gambling addict doesn't understand what's self control and discipline, he will try to gamble as long as he have money and will try anything to get money. If every gambler understand about self control and read every warning message on the casino, there will be no gambling addict.

I think they're born to become gambling addict that used to make the casino's owner become rich, make a debt collector to work etc.
Agree, the mistake of a gambler is not being able to control himself and be disciplined. I actually like to play gambling-like games, like poker, dominoes etc. But I play gambling, there are still limits and I can control myself because I consider it only for entertainment. Every now and then I want to try to play when I lose, but think again, because thinking too much eventually makes me lazy to make plans to play gambling. Because for me there is a fund limit for playing gambling, if the limit is up then I will stop and play again the next day. To play gambling, you must be smart in making postal funds that must be issued. Don't let when we lose we can't control it and in the end we do it again.

To me, the psychology of a gambling addict, he will stop gambling, not when he wins big, but when he has nothing left to bet.
Self control really matters alot in gambling and it's those that lack self control that would fall victims to becoming addicted and getting to the stage of wanting to loan money for gambling activities, something that has very high risk, it might sound insane but things like this happen regularly in our society, you'll hear of cases where someone use their tuition fees or rent money to gamble and end up doing awful things like getting drunk or suicial attempts when they lose, all these are due to lack of self control because one that does won't even consider taking the risk matter how sure they're about the game they're betting on.
 That mentality of wanting to quit when you recover your lost or when you have nothing to bet with is very poor and such people would end up losing everything they have to gambling or become serious addicts because the more you try to win the house is the more you stand a chance of losing more.

Arsenal are looking at the possibility of signing Ansu Fati from Barcleona this summer.According to source,It is reported that Xavi has told Fati that he is not in his plans for this season,therefore,the player should look for somewhere to go to,and due to this reports,Arsenal have already made a bid for the young lad which was rejected immediately,but now that it is clear that the player is not in his plans atall,Ansu Fati has asked to leave in search of regular football,which will see Arsenal coming back for him,and table a more improved offfer for him to secure his signature.Nevertheless,it is yet to be seen whether the player will fancy a move to the emirate stadium.
Some players are unfortunate in La Liga football. I've seen numerous scenarios of players that had good form to excel but things became really rough for them. Take for instance, Phillipe Coutihno who sign for Barcelona from Liverpool, he never had his prime in the club, followed by Antoine Grizemann who also failed to make good impression on his performance at Camp Nou. The thing is, not every player have good probability of impacting positively to the club. Arsenal keep an eye on Ansu Fati from Barcelona this summer, the interests came in after Xavi Hernandez clear a message of having no plans for Ansu Fati.
It takes a very good quality player to excel at Barcelona because alot would be expected from you and when you fail to leave up to standard they either sell or loan  you to another club, most times it not the players fault especially when they receive injuries that could make them be sidelined for Monty or sometimes the whole season, it affects their form as well as making them injury prone, it happened with Dembele and also happening to Pedri currently, for the case of Fat he start as a very brilliant player and fans had a high expectations from him, but after several injury spells he lost form and sat on the bench most times.
 Well most players recover their form when they move to another club and Àrsenal is a club that shares almost similar pattern as Barcelona when it comes to passing techniques and quick counter balls and he might adapt quickly there and it would be beneficial to his career because over there at Barcelona he'll end up warming the bench and instead trying to recover his form with playing time.
