It depends on individuals, If someone invest 30% of his salary on bitcoin, I think no matter the emergency involved the remaining 70% will be enough for any situation that may arise
What if the person is underemployed? You started your statement well that it depends on individual and by that individual I want to believe you are referring to individual needs, his income and other factors such as his confidence in Bitcoin. We must acknowledge the peculiarity of wealth distribution, which have some people living in surplus and others barely able to feed. So their investment decision will be determined by their circumstances. The percentage should not be a factor here before some persons will draw conclusion that a particular percentage is what should be invested in Bitcoin. It depends entirely on the situation of the individual.

Personally, I think investing in bitcoin may not be as complicated as you think. Carrying out financial percentages is very necessary when investing in bitcoin. But don't forget, we may have experienced it, sometimes emergencies can come at any time and anywhere. As a result, the percentages sometimes change due to emergencies. Therefore, in my opinion, dedicating 30% of one's money to Bitcoin cannot be considered a fixed percentage. Because sometimes the remaining 70% of the salary/money earned is sometimes not enough for one month's needs. Especially for an ordinary worker or employee. So if that's the case, I think a better solution is to invest Bitcoin at the end of the month. So what I mean is, for example, in month 1 you receive a salary from the company where you work. So, don't invest that money directly into Bitcoin (30%). But first use the money (100%) for your needs for a month. Then, if at the end of the month you still have money left over after that month's needs are met and the next day you will be paid again in the second month by the company where you work, then you can invest the remaining money in Bitcoin. So by using this technique I am sure it will be better and safer. Because the point is, when you invest, all your needs are met and the next day you will receive another salary. So that invested money is good cold money to invest in Bitcoin.

If Inter wins the next 2 games with Fiorentina and Juventus the Serie A will be over.
Inter's next two matches will definitely be decisive in Serie A. The reason is, if Inter is able to wipe out the two matches against Fiorentina and Juventus, then it is certain that Inter will be at the top of the Serie A standings quite well. The reason is that Inter will be increasingly superior from the difference in points with other clubs. So this will definitely be a good opportunity for Inter to be more secure in occupying the top ranking in Serie A. Even though it is still just speculation and predictions, I am sure that Inter will definitely be able to sweep these two matches.

The reason is that Juventus was only able to draw against Empoli. Even though statistically, Juventus should be able to win easily when facing Empoli. But in fact Juventus also looked a little overwhelmed. Maybe it's all because one of the Juventus players, Milik, got a red card. Maybe because of that, the Juventus players were overwhelmed by Empoli and almost lost.

And these results will certainly provide wider opportunities for Inter to dominate Serie A this season. Because it seems that Juventus currently sometimes doesn't always appear consistent. So in my opinion, if Inter faced Juventus, Inter would definitely be superior.

I'm surprised Klopp announced he won't extend his contract with Liverpool in the middle of the competition. I think he must keep the secret although it is his right to announce it or not. When he announced it, we are afraid that it will ruin the focus of the players. Liverpool is joining the race for the title in few competitions, they must focus on the matches first.

Well, it won't be easy to get the replacement of Klopp. He is an experienced and reputable coach, there is no many coach at the same level with him in the market. If Liverpool expects to sign Xabi Alonso, it seems hard because Xabi still has a contract with Leverkusen. Besides competing with Real Madrid, they also must wait for until 2026.
It would be a shame if Klopp had to leave Liverpool at this time. The reason is that Liverpool is currently in very great performance.
Because currently Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League standings, and in Klopp's hands Liverpool have also managed to qualify for the Carabao Cup final. So if Klopp leaves now, Liverpool's performance which he has built so far could decline. The reason is that currently Liverpool actually has to be able to continue to be solid in order to achieve maximum results. However, if Klopp leaves Liverpool, I am also worried that Liverpool will be a little chaotic. Because as far as I know, after Klopp announced he was leaving Liverpool, several staff at Liverpool also left. So this will definitely be quite difficult for Liverpool. Because even though Liverpool can immediately look for a new coach, it will definitely require adjustments and cooperation with the players. So basically it requires a process that is certainly long. Apart from that, at the moment, in my personal opinion, it is a little impossible that Xabi Alonso will be interested in moving to coach Liverpool. Because his current team, Leverkusen, is also in very good performance in the Bundesliga. So he couldn't just leave Leverkusen.

And reportedly the reason Klopp left Liverpool was because Klopp had run out of energy to manage Liverpool.

Quote
"How can I say it, huh? I'm running out of energy. I know that I can't do this job again and again and again and again," continued Klopp.

With these reasons, it means that Klopp will likely decide to retire from the world of football. Indeed, if I look at his age, currently Kloop is 56 years old. So maybe it's time for him to enjoy life more.

According to The Sun, Thursday (25/1/2024), MU was reluctant to bring in Benzema because of the money factor. They reportedly have to pay exorbitant costs if they want to bring the former Real Madrid player to Old Trafford.

So it is clear that Benzema has to rethink the price of the contract he has. Because if he continues to charge very high prices, it will most likely be difficult for him to move clubs and will definitely have to stay at Al Ittihad.
Benzema is facing similar problems like Cristiano Ronaldo two seasons ago. He is older, has more problems with injuries, his body and fitness that all make his appearances for this club becomes less and less with time. His contributions for his club includes goals will become less and less over time.

Any big club that wants to have Benzema will have count those potential problems into consideration and because they also will have to pay him lucrative salary, they have many more reasons to be reluctant to complete a transfer and personal deal with Benzema.

Benzema must think of his career and what he wants most in this very last seasons of his career. Money or chance to play for big clubs, he only can choose one, not both.
Yes, the age factor is Benzema's main problem. The reason is, at the start of the season when Benzema had just joined Al Ittihad, he suffered an injury when Al Ittihad faced Al Wehda. So it has now been proven that Benzema is always prone to injury. Therefore, big European clubs will definitely think twice about bringing in Benzema from Al Ittihad. Apart from that, if you think about it, Benzema's fate is the same as what Ronaldo experienced when he left Manchester United. However, the difference was, at that time Ronaldo could be said to be fitter than Benzema. The reason is that Ronaldo takes better care of his body so that his body remains fit and his performance remains good. This has all been proven, because Ronaldo often scores goals in every match with Al Nasr. Apart from that, Ronaldo could be said to be lucky because when he was looking for a club that was willing to accommodate him, at that time there was Al Nasr who was able to sign and pay Ronaldo's large salary from Manchester United.

However, on the contrary, what Benzema is experiencing now can be said to be more difficult than what Ronaldo experienced. The reason is that currently Benzema does not have a definite interested club who wants to bring him. Although from rumors I know that Lyon is ready to bring in Benzema. Because this club was the first club that Benzema visited when he started his career in the world of football. But I don't know whether Lyon can afford Benzema's large salary. Because even a club like MU is not willing to pay Benzema's large salary. So at this time Benzema shouldn't be too selfish, if he really wants to keep playing football. Because now he has to be more aware of his own situation.
405  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin has never pass ATH before halving but it has always dip don't panic. on: January 27, 2024, 09:22:17 AM
~Snip
I noticed Bitcoin has never crossed the ATH before the halving but many people are thinking it'll do that this year rather I noticed that it always dips before the halving and that what is happening to the market therefore we shouldn't not be alarmed, this is what happens always from the history of Bitcoin and history always repeats in the market. Lets be guided and don't lose faith as the market is only dipping not crashing.
That's right, friend, there's no need to worry or hesitate when the price of bitcoin experiences a decline at this time. This is because the price decline that occurs in Bitcoin before the halving is a cycle that always occurs every 4 years. Because before this halving, many bitcoin investors will definitely sell their bitcoins first. The goal is so that they can buy back bitcoin if a correction occurs. Maybe because of this, Bitcoin always experiences a decline in price first when the Halving is coming. But as far as I know, the price decline that occurs before the Bitcoin halving occurs, is usually not too deep. Because if you look at market sentiment, investors who often sell and buy always have the same strength. So there's no need to worry if Bitcoin is currently experiencing frequent corrections.

And when talking about ATH, it seems a bit difficult for Bitcoin to touch ATH before the halving occurs. Never mind before the halving occurs, even after the halving occurs Bitcoin still takes quite a long time to reach ATH. A big example is the bitcoin halving that occurred in 2020. At that time, bitcoin took around 18 months (1.5 years) to reach its ATH. So you could say that ATH before the halving occurs is very unlikely. So if anyone thinks that's going to happen, I think they have to hope for a very long time. Grin

We are also getting closer to the deadline of winter transfer season, but that's very bad to see how benzema was not even able making a decision as soon as possible. He keeps thinking many times about which club that is going to be his next dstination.
Benzema just need to go to the EPL and everything will be clear. Benzema shall have moved back to the EPL to get a better environment for him to play. It seems like that the salary has become the main problem that was preventing other club to approach him.

It was really bad to see benzema feels so hard on deciding whether he stays or leave from the club.

~Snip
Currently, Benzema is experiencing a big dilemma. Because according to rumors circulating he will soon move from Al Ittihad. But strangely, three days ago I read a news article about Benzema, he said that the rumors of his move from Al Ittihad were a hoax (lie).

Quote
"That's completely wrong! The French media doesn't know what to make of it anymore. The bigger the rumors, the better," he criticized as reported by Goal.
Source: https://www.bola.com/dunia/read/5512936/karim-benzema-bantah-bakal-tinggalkan-al-ittihad-klaim-media-prancis-jadi-sumber-hoaks

So after I read the news, I was actually a bit confused. Because whether Benzema really wants to leave Al Ittihad or not. Because if you read his confession, it seems like Benzema still wants to stay at Al Ittihad. So here I am becoming increasingly confused, which news should I believe. But if for example Benzema really wants to stay at Al Ittihad, he definitely has to play better so that his expensive contract with Al Ittihad is not in vain. But if he decides to leave Al Ittihad, there are option he can think about.

Benzema must lower his prices. Because actually there are still many clubs from Europe who are still interested in Benzema. But the problem is, Benzema is too expensive. And this made the clubs who were interested in him withdraw. One of them is Manchester United.

407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Older men vs Younger boys in gambling, Which enjoys Gambling for fun the more? on: January 26, 2024, 03:31:39 PM
Hi gamblers,

So, a particular discussion on the gambling board which I am part of; actually put this question into my head, and I thought I should ask the gambling community here, so we could possibly have some fun discussion it.

And the question is very simple, Between the older men (talking of from 60 years old and above), and younger men (talking of from 18 to 45 years of age) which of this category of men actually gamble for fun the more?

~Snip
In my personal opinion, this is actually very relative and age sometimes cannot be used as a definite benchmark for whether older men gamble more for fun or vice versa. Because it all depends on the situation and condition of the person (old/young).

But if we are talking about the majority here, maybe the answer I give will be the same or neutral. Because as far as I know, there are many elderly people who make their gambling activities a pleasure. However, quite a few young men gamble for fun too. So the essence is the same. Because in my personal opinion, gambling can be said to be an activity for fun. Both for parents and for young people. Because if you think deeper, everyone definitely wants pleasure when gambling. Because by gambling sometimes the problems you experience are a little forgotten. Apart from that, when we make a profit, that is where we will get the highest level of pleasure in gambling. Maybe if someone says that he gambles just for fun without caring about winning, you can be sure that person is lying. Because whoever the person is, whatever wealth they have, and whatever their age, they will definitely be a little sad when they lose at gambling.

So in conclusion, I give a neutral answer to your question, friend. Because in my view, everyone (old/young) definitely wants to have fun when gambling.

News from Manchester United is about this player, McTominay. Manchester United is trying to sign a new contract with their player because the contract of McTominay is about to end and while McTominay was mostly not in the first squad but he had good performances whenever Ten Hag used this player. So far in 18 games in the premier league he scored 5 goals while he wasn't the first squad in 12 games and this player is already liked by the team like West Ham but Manchester United wants to keep their player for a longer time.


I agree if Manchester United retains a potential player like Mctominay. Because in my opinion being able to score 5 goals in 18 matches can be said to be quite good progress. Moreover, he is not the main player, but was able to score 5 goals, in my opinion he has talent that can continue to be developed. Maybe in the future, if his abilities continue to be improved, Mctominay will definitely be sharper and become a greater player. So Teen Hag should give him more playing minutes. So that Mctominay can gain more experience and develop his abilities even further.
Because it would be a shame if Mctominay was only used as a substitute. Because this will slightly hamper its performance. because Mctominay does have good potential, so Teen Hag must continue to hone his skills even better.

Because in the previous season, from the reports I know, Mctominay planned to be sold to another club. However, with the good performance he has shown this season, Teen Hag seems to have changed his mind and actually wants to extend Mctuminay's contract for another year. Therefore, it is possible that in the future, if Mctominay continues to provide good development and contribution at Manchester United, he could become a main player for in the future. So the key is, Mctominay must not relax his performance. And when he has the opportunity to play, he must take advantage of it well, so that Teen Hag can be more impressed with his abilities.

Good results in the copa de tey and another opportunity for atletico Madrid to win a silver ware this season in what was a roller coaster results

We now have Atletico Madrid, Atlético Bilbao, Real Sociedad and Mallorca in the semi finals
Who are you rooting for?
The favorite name is Atletico Madrid, they made it to the semi-finals and eliminated Real Madrid from the cup. Even though Atletico Madrid is the absolute favorite, Atlético Bilbao is also a dangerous team, I still think Atletico Madrid will win the King's Cup. It's like an Atletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid final and this final will be very high tension, it's a matter of curiosity which team will suppress the other team.
I personally also think Atletico Madrid is superior to the three teams. Because if you just look at the La Liga standings, Atletico Madrid is the one who is superior. The reason is that currently Atletico Madrid is ranked 4th, while Bilbao is ranked 5th, Real Sociedad is ranked 6th, and Mallorca is ranked 15th. So among these 4 clubs Atletico Madrid is the most productive.

So it's only natural that in this year's Copa Del Rey Atletico Madrid is the favorite to win. The reason is that Atletico Madrid's performance is quite good. But it is a strong candidate if you look at the rankings in La Liga alone. However, in reality, it could be that Mallorca, who finished bottom in this year's Copa Del Rey semifinals, will be the scapegoat. Because I was quite surprised when I saw Mallorca able to beat Girona in the last eight yesterday. At that time I thought Girona would win easily, but in reality Girona conceded 3 goals in the first half. So even though Mallorca is not that superior, I have a feeling that Mallorca will definitely be the scapegoat this time.

So with all these facts, I think in this Copa Del Rey semifinal match there will be quite an interesting surprise. Either Atletico Madrid will be eliminated? Or Real Sociedad will enter the final?.

Massimiliano Allegri in an interview a few days ago declared that Juventus' number one objective is to qualify for the Champions League, but it is a veiled declaration! it's obvious that Juventus wants to win the scudetto and the performances don't lie! it will be a duel until the end with Inter
Juventus' ambition to win the Scudetto is indeed very big. Because this is indeed a matter of great pride and the first step to enter UCL. However, fighting for the Scudetto will not be easy for Juventus. The reason is, Inter will most likely soon overtake Juventus at the top of the standings. The reason is that Inter also of course has a strong desire to be at the top of the standings and win the Scudetto. For this reason, Inter will certainly not waste the opportunity when they face Fiorentina next Monday. Because, it would be a good scheme for Inter Milan if they could beat Fiorentina and then become top of the standings. Then in the match against Juventus, if Inter can win, it is very likely that Inter will definitely be stronger at the top of the standings. So that's a good scheme for Inter if they want to be strong in first place in Serie A. But that's just a scheme, so we'll see the reality later.

The reason is that Fiorentina is also not an easy opponent for Inter, so the possibility of Inter losing is not small. For this reason, Juventus also has a big chance of remaining at the top and it would be a good scheme if, for example, Inter loses to Fiorentina and then Juventus can beat Inter in the next match. Because even though it's difficult, that's the way to get the Scudetto. Because if for example Juventus only wanted to enter the UCL, I think that would be quite easy. Because Juventus is used to being a regular customer of Serie A clubs who enter the Champions League. Although in last season's UCL Juventus failed to enter. But this season it seems, it won't be too difficult for Juventus to break into the UCL.

The era of Ronaldo and Lionel Messi has ended as the best players it is a fact that cannot be denied and that's why we see Ronaldo playing in this league because he is considered unable to compete with other European players, especially young players. If you talk about the Saudi Pro League of course Ronaldo is still the best but for Europe I don't think so anymore there are still many talented young players, for now Ronaldo will only be a legend and Messi of course.

Agree, although indeed, that Ronaldo and Messi are legends but now of course soccer will also have a new era with potential young players. Different cases if for example Ronaldo and Messi are still actively playing in the big European leagues then at least, the assessment might be different. Because anyway, because Ronaldo and Messi are currently only playing in a league that does not have the same level as in the big European leagues, then thus Ronaldo and Messi can play well, especially for Ronaldo. But anyway, although Ronaldo can still play well but yes, the fact is that Ronaldo still failed to bring Al Nassr to get the Saudi Pro League trophy. Therefore, their golden era is basically over and although it is hard to admit but that is the reality.
It wouldn't be wrong if we said that Ronaldo and Messi are the best players in the world at the moment. The reason is, these two players have made many achievements during their careers in the world of football. Even though in reality Ronaldo and Messi are no longer playing in Europe, there are various reasons why this could happen. Examples like

  • Expensive costs.
As we know, to be able to bring Ronaldo and Messi to a club requires large funds. That is why clubs in Europe are reluctant to offer new contracts to the two players. Because the costs that must be incurred must be very large. Because of this, clubs with large capital such as Al Nasr and Inter Miami brought in these two players. The reason is that both clubs (Al Nasr & Inter Miami) need two great players to sharpen the team's strength and for popularity matters.

  • European clubs want new, fresher players.
It cannot be denied, in the world of football there is certainly a lot of room for refreshment and opportunity for young talents. Maybe that's why European clubs choose not to keep senior players like Ronaldo and Messi. Even though Ronaldo and Messi are still very suitable in my opinion to play in Europe, the age and price factors are obstacles for them.

  • Then Ronaldo and Messi chose to play casually, while waiting to retire.
In my opinion, this first reason is the most appropriate. The reason is that Ronaldo and Messi have made many achievements in the world of football. So for now making money and playing more casually on the field is likely something they are after.

So for me personally Ronaldo and Messi remain great players today. Because even though they are not currently playing in Europe. But for me, this cannot be used as a benchmark that they are no longer great at playing football.

Like many people have already said, investment fund should be separated from funds for basic needs thereafter emergency funds should also be kept for optimal management of the investment portfolio. This way there will be no pressures to sell even if the price drop because there is the confidence that Bitcoin will always recover with time.
I agree.

Because what happens when your entire investment like if you're holding Bitcoin is your entire wealth, there is a big tendency that you will be forced to sell it at a time that you're not willing to sell but you have to.

That's why when we invest, make sure that we've got funds as well like emergency funds or extra funds that will be touched and protect our assets like in Bitcoin if unforeseen times comes.
Investing in bitcoin does have many rules that must be understood and implemented properly. So that investment continuity can run more smoothly and there are no obstacles in the way. One of these rules lies in the use of funds that will be used when investing in bitcoin. This point is very important for all bitcoin investors to implement. Especially for investors who intend to keep bitcoin for a long period of time. Because if the funds used to invest in bitcoin are basic needs funds, emergency funds, health funds, as you said, it will definitely end badly. Because basically money that has been invested in Bitcoin will be very easily disturbed. So in the end, long-term investment intentions are hampered. Although actually taking/selling bitcoin assets if necessary is not a bad thing. But the context we are talking about here is about better procedures for investing in bitcoin.

So the best solution in terms of capital that can be used when you want to invest in Bitcoin in the long term is.
Use the funds we have ourselves, don't force yourself and most importantly use cold funds. So the point is, don't get easily carried away by FOMO. Because when we see other people successful with bitcoin investment, we only see them when they are at the top. But sometimes we forget how this person can be successful with his bitcoin investment. Even basically Bitcoin investment looks simple, just buy and hold. But in reality it's not that easy.

And in this Copa Del Rey match there were two big teams that were able to be defeated by the teams below them, which was really unexpected.
~Snip

In my opinion, Girona and Barcelona can be beaten by clubs below them because these two clubs seem to be more concerned with LaLiga matches and don't want to work too hard to get a title but are more concerned with maintaining the players' physicality to maintain their position in LaLiga to get Champions League tickets for the following season.
Maybe this is a reasonable reason for me.
Yes, I agree that this is the most reasonable reason why Barcelona and Girona lost the Copa Del Rey. The reason is, it is no longer strange that the Champions League (UEFA) has always been the main goal for clubs in European countries to be able to play there, including clubs in Spain (La Liga). The reason is, the Champions League can be said to be the highest and most prestigious caste competition for clubs in European countries, such as Barcelona or Girona. So it makes sense that the defeats experienced by Girona and Barcelona were caused by the performance of their players which the coach deliberately did not maximize, so that they could compete optimally when playing in La Liga and could finish at least in the top 4 in the standings. Because the football players owned by Barcelona and Girona are also ordinary people, it is only natural that they have to focus on one goal, so that that goal can be achieved successfully. So if Barcelona and Girona's goal is the Champions League, then it would be wise for the two clubs to sacrifice local competitions to be able to compete for tickets to play in the Champions League.

Because it is true, tickets to play in the Champions League are very limited in every top European league. Because as far as I know there are 4 tickets up for grabs in every European country with the highest league caste. However, the latest news that I know is that this year the number of participating clubs that can take part in the Champions League (UEFA) from each of the highest leagues in Europe has increased to 5 clubs.

Quote
Good news for the big four of Europe's top leagues. Starting from the 2024/2025 Champions League, these leagues can send five representatives

And this is good news, because of course this will be an opportunity for Europe's highest caste clubs who want to take part in the UCL a little more. So La Liga can also send 5 club representatives to the upcoming Champions League.
414  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If satoshi shows he has still controll of all of his coins what would happen ? on: January 25, 2024, 04:09:52 AM
Lets assume that by mistake satoshi moves his coins. What would happen to bitcoin?
I think bitcoin will be fine. But what you need to worry about is the investors. Because I am sure that if this happened, many investors would panic and would most likely quickly sell their assets. Because if, for example, Satoshi sends his bitcoin assets to the exchange, there are several possible causes for this to happen. That is

  • Satoshi wants to sell the bitcoin assets he owns.
  • Want to move bitcoin assets to another wallet.
  • Or Satoshi also wants to see the market response (the possibility is very small).

However, of these 3 possibilities, bitcoin investors will definitely be very wary of the first possibility. Because if, for example, Satoshi sent his bitcoin assets to the exchange and after that sold all his assets, then the price of bitcoin would definitely fall very deeply. Because how could it not be, Satoshi is the creator of Bitcoin. So if he sells all the bitcoin assets he owns, of course this will be a big question mark. But in my opinion all of that is quite impossible if it happens. Because until now no one knows whether this satoshi still exists or not. In addition, it is impossible for Satoshi to destroy the bitcoins he created. So it's better to stop thinking like this, bro. Because of the assumptions you make about Bitcoin, sometimes there are people who take it seriously and end up thinking paranoid.

Manchester United and Ten Hag changed to treat Casemiro unfairly and I believe the player is no longer happy in Old Trafford. It is probably good time for Casemiro to leave Europe and enjoy good salary from clubs in Saudi Arabia. I don't know how long will those clubs continue to pay high salary for star players from Europe. Casemiro will not have many seasons to join that league so he must make his decision soon enough.

The rumor looks logical with Cristiano Ronaldo's engagement in convincing Casemiro to join Al Nassr. It's rumor now and even it looks logical, we have to wait what will happen in next 8 days before the winter transfer market in Europe will close.
I'm sure Casemiro will be a good player when he gets the right coach. Ten Hag didn't treat him well, and the player's problems don't seem to be limited to Casemiro. We can see, if Sancho goes to Dortmund and he can immediately get the best place and even score goals. Right now Man United's problem is not only players but I think they also evaluate the coach immediately. Because if you look at the moment Man United have a lot of good players, but they are unable to develop to get good results in the competition.
Casemiro is indeed a very good striker. However, all of this is useless if the coach (Teen Hag) does not provide enough space to accommodate the quality of his game. Personally, I would prefer MU to change its coach. Because currently MU actually has quite good players. However, because of the coach's selfishness and favoritism, it became MU's burden to progress. A big example is Ronaldo. At that time we all knew that Ronaldo was a very great player at Juventus. However, when he moved from Juventus to MU, his performance dropped drastically. And from the news that I know, it turns out that the main reason Ronaldo's performance was not good when playing at Mu, was because Ronaldo was often ignored by the coach (Teen Hag). However, after Ronaldo moved to Saudi Arabia (Al Nasr), his epic performance that was not seen while at MU appeared again.
So it's clear, MU coache (Teen Hag) always waste talented players just because of their personal selfishness.

Apart from that, Casemiro also has a long contract with MU, namely until 2026. So Casemiro actually has to make a choice immediately. Because if Teen Hag's treatment of him is still not good, I think it would be better if Casemiro moved to another team. Whether it's the Saudi Arabian League, Italian League or German League, I think it will definitely be better.And if, for example, Casemiro moves to the Saudi Arabian League, I think he would be very suitable in a team with Ronaldo at Al Nasr, because Ronaldo is a good friend of Casemiro, so if they play together, I'm sure their chemistry will definitely be good. Apart from Al Nasr, Casemiro would also be very suitable if he moved to Al Ahli. The reason is that at Al Ahli there are several players who come from Brazil and one of them is Firmino.

Girona suffers disappointment; no good records will advance to important phases. The numbers do not match up between the two clubs; Girona gave their all to match the scores they deserved, but I believe they fell short. The amazing comeback was cut short because they ran out of time following a 3-2 setback. One of the most resilient games with suspenseful action, I watched Girona dominate and do their best to level the game, but the mistakes made in the first half could not be repaired; conceding three goals in the first half was unquestionably one of the major mistakes they should have circumvented.

Unexpectedly, in the first half, Girona conceded 3 goals. Even though I hope Girona can score first in the first half. However, in reality, Girona players in the first half were less alert and actually made mistakes in the penalty box area (Handsball). Which ultimately resulted in a penalty kick which was utilized very well by the Mallorca player. And in the second half Girona tried to get up, but unfortunately in the end they couldn't catch Mallorca. The reason is, in the second half the Mallorca players fought hard to maintain their lead. So Girona still has difficulty penetrating Mallorca's defense.

Apart from that, in another match in the Copa Del Rey, Barcelona also lost to Bilbao. Honestly, this match also quite surprised me. Because from the start I was very confident that Barcelona would win the match. The reason is that in the first half Barcelona was ahead with a score of 2-1. However, at the start of the second half the Bilbao players managed to equalize the score at 2-2. Then after that
Bilbao played increasingly sharp and continued to attack Barcelona's defense and scored 2 more goals in extra time.

Actually, in this match Barcelona had many very good opportunities, but unfortunately the final solution was not optimal and was too hasty. As a result, many golden opportunities are wasted.

And in this Copa Del Rey match there were two big teams that were able to be defeated by the teams below them, which was really unexpected.

My friends aunty called him on the call while we were conversing today, and  she was complaining about how her son has withdrawn #20,000 approximately $15 from her account through mobile transfer to play bet and he lost it all.
She complained bitterly and pitifully because she struggled to safe such amount of money.

Now, the mum is calling on everyone she could to intervene, discipline the child and force him to provide the money in any means he can without the concern of how he could refund the money.

Question: would she be so disheartened and mad as this if the son had won the bet on a multi million price?
Dear fellows, let's assume you are the mom, what would be your state of mind on this context?
First of all, I want to discuss that stealing money is not a commendable thing. So the child's behavior of stealing his mother money is clearly in the wrong context. Therefore, it is natural for a mother to be angry with her child, because his child has stolen the money she worked so hard to find. So in this context, in my opinion, the main trigger for mother to be angry is not necessarily because their children use the money to gamble. But angry because the child stole his money. So it's clear now, the main trigger for the mother's anger was because the money was stolen, right? Because if, for example, a child uses his mother's money for other things, I'm sure his mother will still be angry.

And regarding your core question, I don't think the mother would be too angry if her child managed to win the gambling. The mother may only slightly reprimand her child for his wrong actions (stealing). Then most likely the mother will be very happy, because after all the mother will definitely get a share of the profits from her child's gambling results. But from the story you share, we can all learn a lesson. That when gambling we definitely have to use money that is truly ours and that money is cold money. So that when the worst possibility befalls (loss), we will not be too dizzy or depressed. Because the money used for gambling is our own money and also cold money.

Manchester City and Liverpool now have almost comparable strength so these two teams have the potential to compete for the Premier League title until the end of the season.

~Snip
This season the battle for first place in the Premier League is very tight. Especially for teams ranked 1-5, all teams have almost the same points (except Liverpool). So it's natural that currently many people are speculating on these 5 teams. This is because the performance of the five teams is equally strong and has its own advantages. Apart from that, the race for first place in the Premier League this season is still very open to any team, especially the top 5 teams.

  • Liverpool
  • Manchester City
  • Arsenal
  • Aston Villa
  • Tottenham Hotspur

However, for this season, I personally think the strongest candidate who has the chance to win the Premier League is Liverpool. The reason is, so far M, Salah and friends have consistently wiped out almost all the matches they have played in the Premier League with wins. So it is clear that Liverpool's chances of winning this season are very big. However, for now Liverpool is not yet in a safe zone, because MAN City will always try to shift Liverpool from the top of the standings. Even though MAN City's mainstay striker, Halland, is currently injured, this will not make MAN City weak. So it is true that the tightest competition that will occur in the race for the Premier League title this season is between Liverpool and MAN City. The reason is that both teams (Liverpool and MAN City) have very good players in every line. So it is not surprising that these two teams are rivals this season.

Benzema playing in the Saudi League and for Al Ittihad was not a good experience for this French player and Al Ittihad and it seems Benzema wants to leave Al Ittihad soon. However, during the time when Benzema joined Al Ittihad, he was mostly injured and not in the good form but he is now about to leave because he said he is under pressure in this country and he can't handle this pressure that's why he asked the Al Ittihad to let him leave.
 


It would be a shame if Benzema had to leave Al Ittihad. The reason is, he hasn't played a single season, but he has decided he wants to leave Al Ittihad. But even so, if Benzema is no longer comfortable playing at Al Ittihad, it can't be helped, it would be better for Benzema to leave. Because even if forced, Benzema's performance will definitely not be optimal. And this will of course affect his career in the world of football which he has pioneered so far and will also have a negative impact on Al Ittihad. So choosing to leave Al Ittihad was indeed the right decision for Benzema.

Apart from that, perhaps the main reason Benzema feels uncomfortable playing at Al Ittihad may be because of the coach. Because as far as I know, Benzema reportedly doesn't get along with Al Ittihad's old coach, and now it's reported that Benzema also doesn't get along with Al Ittihad's new coach. I don't know the reason, but it seems like Benzema doesn't fit in at Al Ittihad. Even though at Al Ittihad he had teammates who both came from his country (Francis), namely Kante. Apart from that, he is also a Muslim who certainly feels at home living in Saudi Arabia, where the majority of the population is Muslim. So clearly it was the coach who made him uncomfortable at Al Ittihad. Because if you look at other factors, I think Benzema is fine at Al Ittihad.

However, currently Benzema still seems to have many fans. The reason is that Arsenal, Chelsea, MU and Lyon are all targeting Benzema. So Benzema is still very lucky because there are still many teams who are still interested in bringing him.

So Barcelona again found themselves in awkward situation with the legal time coming to an end with a draw and they should wait for injury time to score goals against Real Betis otherwise they would lose two points..
Barcelona are seven points behind of Real Madrid and seeing how they were doing, I think the situation will not improve and they have to wait for points loss from Real Madrid and Girona side which are advancing too. Girona 5 goals against Sevilla were impressive Wink
When Barcelona played against Real Betis, the situation was quite tense when the second half almost reached the 90th minute. Because at that time the goal difference was still equal. However, what I admire about the Barcelona players is that in the crucial minutes they still had extraordinary composure and in the end were able to score 2 goals scored by Felix and Torres. So even though Barcelona is not yet at a point that I think is extraordinary, I still appreciate it. Because even though Barcelona is currently in 3rd place in the La Liga standings, I don't think that's bad either. Considering that the players that Barcelona currently has are not what they used to be (when Barca was victorious), but the development shown by Xavi and his players can be said to be quite good.

Apart from that, Barcelona is currently undergoing a slightly difficult journey to reach the top of the La Liga standings. The reason is that currently Barcelona is quite far behind the top two teams (Girona & Madrid) if you look at the point difference. So I agree with your opinion, that in order for Barcelona to be at the top of the standings, one solution is to wait for several defeats from Madrid and Girona. Because if this is not the case, it will be quite difficult for Barcelona to be at the top of the standings.

And for the next match in La Liga, Barcelona will face Villarreal. So hopefully Barcelona can reap maximum results in the upcoming match, so that they don't fall further behind Madrid and Girona. The reason is that currently Madrid and Girona are in very good performance.
