Haaland may have always been considered by Real Madrid as an alternative to Mbappe but Real Madrid's main and first target was Mbappe. Mbappé has been making deals with Real Madrid every season but the deal has not been completed but Real Madrid have waited, leaving us to wonder why Mbappé was wanted by Real Madrid at any cost. Mbappe was wanted by Real Madrid at any cost and Real Madrid waited for him. If there was no extra interest in Mbappe, Real Madrid would have completed the contract with Manchester City star Haaland a long time ago.

These two stars Haaland and Mbappe will never play for Real Madrid at the same time because Real Madrid already has the best players, so Real Madrid will definitely not want to have two finishers in the team at the same time and leave one on the bench.
That's right, Madrid will never put two stars, especially strikers, in one team, Madrid doesn't want to experience an incident like what happened to PSG when they put a lot of star players on the front line (Messi, Neymar, Mbappe), it has been reported that Madrid will soon bring in Mbappe and PSG is also unable to keep Mbappe in their team then it is certain that Mbappe will go to Madrid and play there.
Buying a player for 100 million or more and keeping him on the bench would certainly never be a mistake from Real Madrid for a big loss club.  Before signing a contract with a player, Real Madrid consider how he will perform, what position he will play, whether he can play regularly, and then sign a contract with him. Real Madrid would never do something like PSG bought three of the best stars in the world together. Real Madrid already have strong players so if Real Madrid can only sign Mbappe then no other players are needed. So it is safe to say that Real Madrid will not have any plans to sign any other star player if they sign Mbappe very soon.

Real Madrid were never too keen on Haaland. Every season we hear rumors that Mbappe is coming to Madrid. But each time Mbappe has disappointed Madrid fans. PSG has made Mbappe a tempting offer every time and Mbappe has renewed his contract. But this season the scenario is different. It is almost certain that Mbappe will leave PSG. And PSG coach Luis Enrique is also trying to stabilize the squad without Mbappe. And there are strong rumors that Mbappe is set to join Real Madrid this season.



Mbappe is coming to Madrid while another rumor is that Vini is likely to leave Madrid.
Kylian Mbappe in, Vinicius Junior out at Real Madrid?

According to the report, Real Madrid are ready to sell Vini. But I don't know how reliable this news is. However, Manchester United are now interested in adding Vini to the squad. Manchester United are looking to strengthen their attack. Talented young players like Vini are what Manchester United need right now.

The cost of things has gone up so much so that it's glaring. Imagine paying 5-12$ for an average meal you could get before for 3$. The jump cost is extremely high. Cooking a meal at home can cost you the same amount you would spend on eating in a restaurant. Funny enough people still afford all these things without complaining. My anger is that we make money to spend it all into our normal life expenses. It's difficult now to save or invest unless you part of the rich people in society. An average man has to just eat, pay bills, and survive.
But does complaining make you money? Does complaining help you escape hunger? Otherwise, why do we have to waste time complaining? Instead, if you know life is getting more and more difficult, find a solution, don't complain or cry because it can't solve the problem . I admit that life is increasingly harsh and making money is also extremely difficult, but there are still people who make very good money. That only proves that we are becoming too incompetent and unable to adapt to current life . I will try to find solutions and improve my knowledge to adapt to things rather than complain.
403  Economy / Economics / Re: 2024 & Prediction of World War III - Effect on Cryptocurrencies on: March 18, 2024, 08:53:43 AM
Do you want to say that after the surrender of Germany in May 1945, the million-strong Kwantung Army of Japan, which was an ally of Germany and was armed with over 1.2 thousand tanks, more than 6.6 thousand guns, 1.9 thousand aircraft, over 30 combat ships and boats did not pose a threat to the eastern borders of the USSR at all? In fierce battles throughout August 1945, the irretrievable losses of Soviet troops amounted to 12 thousand people, medical losses - 24.4 thousand. Was this damage caused by those who were unable to resist? Why then didn’t Japan capitulate earlier than September 2 and fought stubborn battles with Soviet troops for almost a month? In a national radio address, Emperor Hirohito announced surrender to the Japanese people on August 15, but the Japanese army continued to offer serious resistance for a long time.
We are talking about war crime committed by the US regime and the lack of justification for it, not what could have happened between USSR and Japan. As for any battles that took place between the two timeframes, that's due to lack of negotiations which is the only reason why any wars stop. US regime wanted to test its nukes somewhere which is why they refused to negotiate peace with Japan so Japanese kept fighting a little longer than they wanted to.
I agree that from a military point of view there was no need for the US to drop nuclear bombs on the peaceful Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 and that these were, in fact, US war crimes.

In the current situation, Putin’s Russia, although they declare that they are open to negotiations with Ukraine, however, the precondition for negotiations is the consent of Ukraine to the fact that the occupied territories of Ukraine remain with Russia, and this is unacceptable for Ukraine and for the entire civilized world. More and more states are being drawn into this bloody and brutal war, and therefore the threat of World War III is growing rapidly.

Oh, cool, now could you answer me: was any US official prosecuted for this act? Any international court orders issued to arrest president Truman? Were there any sanctions imposed on the US by the international community? Were US sportsmen banned from international competitions?

Check and mate, Bozo! Now I'll go get some popcorn and waiting for your answer which will be quite entertaining I suspect....  Grin

When the US military attacks a country , they will call it punishing criminals , punishing terrorists, bringing  peace to the world and being the world's only messenger of peace . But when a country that is not an ally of the United States has a conflict or war related to national interests, it will be called an invader, a terrorist , and must be destroyed. The conflicts and wars that killed millions of people in Japan, Vietnam, and Iraq caused by the US were all wars against evil  Cheesy Cheesy .
404  Economy / Economics / Re: Digital Bank on: March 18, 2024, 08:42:06 AM

Both digital and traditional banks kinda suck in my country. The interest rates are so low that it's not worth it to save money in a bank account.
What do you expect from the bank? High interest rate and safety? If banks can pay high interest rates, all people will deposit money in banks to earn interest and not need to work, and how will the national economy develop ? Banks are just places for us to store savings or provide financial services such as loans and mortgages when we need money to work . Don't expect passive income from it and don't criticize banks when they offer low interest rates because they are doing business, not charity.

After his dismissal from Roma, we forgot about Mourinho a little, and I decided to see what they wrote about him in the news, so I managed to find the latest news that he can lead Fenerbahce, and there are also mentions that two clubs would like to see him Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahly, so apparently he is now choosing where to continue his career. It was quite expected, that he would not remain unemployed for long, despite the recent setbacks in his career, he still has a high status in world football.
Jose Mourinho still has great prestige even though he was fired from Roma and his name sank even further when De Rossi, who replaced Jose Mourinho as AS Roma coach, could actually make the Roma team much better.
However, in terms of quality and experience, Jose Mourinho is still quite good, so it is only natural that there are several teams who are still interested in using his services. Regarding the rumors currently circulating, there are several, but I also believe that Jose Mourinho will not be unemployed for long.
This is not the first time he has been fired as a coach and what is interesting is when he had to lose his position after 3 seasons with the club, and the one who fired him was AS Roma. In terms of experience, we no longer need to doubt him as an experienced coach, but in my opinion, now he has also declined further in terms of ability, which is something that is normal because it is impossible for him to continue to be good and maintain his glory days.

I haven't heard any rumors about this, but if an Arab club is interested in signing him that would be good news for him. Because in my opinion it is better for him now to look for a club that can pay him a high price and an Arab club is one of his choices. Besides, I haven't heard of any European clubs interested in collaborating with him. But I also don't know for sure about that, because it could be that there are clubs that are secretly approaching Jose Mourinho to become their coach next season. This is his choice, and I think he can take it if there is an offer from an Arab club.

I had heard rumors about him getting offers from Arab Clubs. I also saw that he had received an offer to manage the Portugal National team both of which he declined to manage AS Roma. Mourinho is still an experienced coach despite recent failures. There are some potential clubs who might be interested in hiring him.

Barcelona could be the one to hire him next season, as we all know Xavi would be leaving Barcelona next season. Jurgen Klopp will also be leaving Liverpool next season, but I don’t think he would fit there. Thomas Tuchel will also be leaving Bayern Munich, and it would be interesting to see if Mourinho would be joining a German Club. Erik Ten Hag might also get fired next season so Mourinho might rejoin Manchester United.

As we have not heard any rumors till now, the possibilities are endless. I would be keeping a close on where he would be joining next season.
406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 17, 2024, 08:34:49 PM
United victory over Liverpool was very dramatic, a victory that I think is lucky for United because they act as hosts at Old Trafford. There were lots of opportunities in the two normal rounds and also in the two extra time rounds, in the end United managed to maintain their only hope of winning the trophy. Liverpool didn't play badly at all in my opinion, and they still have a chance in the other two competitions.

United will most likely be able to reach the final, because their opponent in the semifinals is relatively easy, namely Coventry City. I think the FA Cup final will again be titled the Manchester derby, where Manchester City are the favorites to advance to the final, they will face Chelsea in the semi finals. If it really happens, then the FA Cup final is ideal, and United need to work harder to be able to win this trophy.

On the other hand, Klopp is of course very disappointed but they have to look forward, they have to maintain their hopes of winning the EPL trophy and the Europa League trophy. For Klopp, these two competitions are his main priorities before separate at the end of the season, Liverpool must forget the defeat to United and focus on the next match.

Ten man Manchester United and you call that luck? This ain't the first game though this season with ten man, should be a perfect send off for Jurgen Klopp after he said he didn't have much to worry about Manchester United. Just like Erik Ten Hag has said before, Era's comes to an end and this is just the beginning. Nothing lucky about the win, it was earned and if you watched the game, Marcus Rashford should have buried the game a long time ago.

Yeah, they're having a fixture they'd win, might not come easily,but they'll definitely be winners. If Erik Ten Hag had lost the game to Liverpool, all of these Anti- Erik Ten Hag would be singing about his sack this and that lol. He could still end up winning the Fa Cup Competition, because this has got to be the only Competition they can fight for.

He should learn not to underestimate Manchester United, forgetting they're Liverpools greatest rival's? Shout out to Mo Salah anyways, he has now scored a total of 13 goals against Manchester United. Big man doing his thing. Well-done Manchester United they've earned this win tonight.

No game is won by luck I think. Each game has a strategy and the coaches battle out with strategy and the players fight over the ball in the field. Manchester United was better today and that is why they have won today. Luck is not the main factor which has won Manchester United their game if you ask me.
Coventry City is a relatively easier team to beat than Manchester United.

On the other hand, Chelsea vs Manchester City semi-final would be very interesting to watch. These two teams in their recent clashes have drawn. They played against each other in the previous month which ended in a 1-1 scoreline. So the match would be very interesting to see even though Chelsea are struggling in the league. But I think the winner of this season’s winner of FA CUP will be either Chelsea or Manchester City.
407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 17, 2024, 07:33:49 PM
-.-

Hoping is dangerous lol, but one has no choice but to still keep hope alive. And also considering the fact that, Inter Milan the best attacking side in all of Seria A lost to Atletico Madrid is mind blowing. Should they come into this game exhausted and tired from that clash then I believe this would be yet again another lose, more like a back to back lose. Anything could still happen though. Same Napoli I'm rooting for also lost to Barcelona mind you, as they've also seen them asses knocked outta the Champions League Competition. I also doubt they'll make yto the next seasons Champions League Competition with this current performance.

Though, this could be seen as the best they've had judging from the Rudi Garcia management and Walter Mazzari management. Tough game, difficult to take a side.
Inter Milan should be ready, I hope Lautaro Martinez would be inna good state after that penalty lose? It would judge how mentally strong he would be ahead.

Well, whenever you miss a penalty it takes a toll on you mentally. And sometimes you can get a lot of hate for that. I just hope that as a professional player, he will be able to put that behind himself and be able to perform well because he has to realize that he cannot change the past. But he can perform when his team needs the most. It is hard to stay in a positive mindset sometimes. But that's something which has to be done.

No one is actually giving a good chance to Napoli doing this match. I actually agree. I think I'm going for a draw is probably the most realistic approach from Napoli. They have a good no loss recording the last five messes and I think they should try to protect that. Going for a win might be problematic for them


-.-
There is no doubt Napoli is now improving and also giving good but still I have no chance for them to beat Inter Milan with they are still at their best and never lost against them in last four games while Napoli win title as well in this game we will have another defeat for them, and they could be able to stay at their same spot for some more weeks difference of points are increasing and chances are also going to end for them to have any development.

Inter Milan is now clearly having 16 points difference and their exit from the Champions League is surely surprising, but they will keep this positive and try again with better quality in next season, but now this season is surely going to be terrible for the Serie A teams in Champions League with their performance was not up to mark Napoli is also now doing good as they have 9 points from their last five games which is good improvement.

I understand that Napoli is improving. But I do not think it is good enough to actually say they will win against Inter Milan. Unless something unexpected happens. I actually do not think Napoli is capable of winning this match unless Inter Milan does not prepare well for the match or underestimates Napoli. I think if Inter Milan actually tries to win there is no way they are going to lose this one. Just look at the goal difference of both teams. One is 57 and the other is 11

The purpose of Bitcoin was never to over take fiat and become the only currency of a country but it's an alternative currency, it works Viz vice with a nation's fiat currency, if Bitcoin because the only currency in country I can't imagine how it will look, because there are goods of $0.1 and how would I pay for such goods and services in Bitcoin, so it's almost impossible to be the only currency of a nation right now, in this incubate generation maybe we can expect that in futuristic society.

El Salvador has a fiat currency that operates in there and Bitcoin as a legal tender over there means there are no restrictions in holding of Bitcoin of purchase, and it's based on the fact that the government too is Investing in Bitcoin to burst the economy of the country.

There is no way a decentralized government will ever exist in the world it can never be, not even the financial institutions, so perhaps Bitcoin becoming a legal tender only means that everyone has the absolute right to make any financial decisions, and that is the very best a country can do for its citizens.
Think about the crazy fees of bitcoin, would we dare spend a few extra dollars as transaction fees just to buy a loaf of bread or a banana? Not to mention if a country uses bitcoin as its sole currency, how will they sustain their economy if the value of bitcoin drops 50% against the USD? We love bitcoin, are crazy about bitcoin, but we should not blindly and foolishly harm ourselves or anyone else.

I also like the idea of bitcoin becoming a currency but as an alternative currency that exists alongside fiat currency, rather than as the only currency. But I doubt that will be possible with what's happening with bitcoin.
409  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you believe in savings or investment on: March 17, 2024, 12:27:20 PM
This issue has been discussed many times and no one forbids us to use both, why do we always want to choose one? Saving for emergencies and investing gives us the opportunity to increase our assets for a better future. Both are necessary needs for us to have a good life. But it's funny how many people act smart when they don't need to save and will invest all the money they have. Have they ever thought about what they would do if their investments lost money and they encountered difficulties in life? If they don't have savings, what will they do?
Sometimes people don't have enough money to save and invest at same time. They have to choose one or another. If they focus only on emergencies, they won't be able to thrive financially, because all their money will be destined to this sector. So, they have to risk not saving and putting all their money into investments, expecting them to bear fruits in the future, which may come in the short or long term. It's not an easy decision, but I'm in favour of this, since it would be a very harsh, monotonous life to only think about emergencies while neglecting the possibility of achieving a more wealthy life quality in the future.

Personally, I prefer to die trying, than live an entire life without achieving anything. If I face an emergency without any saved money for it, I will die resigned, because I will be conscious to be persuing something better for me and people around, even though I failed in the middle of the process, for something which was beyond my control. On the other hand, if I lived an entire life remedying emergencies, without reaching anywhere, I would feel completely frustrated for not leaving the comfort zone and not taking risks for something better in life.

I understand what you are saying and I was also in a difficult situation many years ago when I did not have enough money to do both at the same time and I also chose to invest. We can make trade-offs and accept risks to invest and without savings, but we should not speak ill of savings or deny the importance of saving in life. It's really important and becomes even more important for people with families and children .

Some are enjoying profits from their investments and have never encountered an emergency . So they are very arrogant but I hope they will not pay the price for their arrogance because life is full of surprises.
410  Economy / Economics / Re: Isn't it all about money? on: March 17, 2024, 12:18:15 PM
Both are equally necessary and important because if you don't have money, how can you access the best education to have the best knowledge? Let's look at reality, rich families always send their children to international standard schools and must admit that those children have broader knowledge than children who only study at local schools. So it can be said that the two have a close relationship with each other because most talented people will make a lot of money , and vice versa, talented people are very good at making money.
I agree with you that we should not separate the two, because both are important factors in our lives. Both money and knowledge are basic things that we have to strive for, I mean if we have money then we can do something easily, and with knowledge we can have many opportunities to get something we want.
It would feel strange if we separated the two, even though both are important aspects of life. I would rather say that the two should be balanced, and that way it could be better than us having to compare something that we don't really need to compare. Everyone has their own role in life and we have to make it work hand in hand.

In fact, our ultimate goal is still how to earn the most money to have the most prosperous life. But to do that, knowledge is an extremely important factor because whether we can make a lot of money depends on our knowledge . That's why I really appreciate studying and studying at prestigious schools. But what I find funny is that many people despise education, despise prestigious schools, and they think that billionaires like Elon or Gates don't need to have a degree or attend prestigious universities to be rich .  They don't look back at themselves, they compare themselves with the unique geniuses in the world because how many people can do what those two billionaires did? Therefore, knowledge and money always go together, no one can become rich without knowledge .
411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 17, 2024, 12:32:34 AM
Inter Milan position at the top of the standings is quite safe for now, the points gap that has formed with its closest competitors AC Milan and Juventus can erase fans worries. It must be admitted that Napoli cannot be underestimated, Inzaghi must be careful in determining the starting XI when facing the defending champions, in order to avoid negative results like they just experienced in the Champions League. Statistically, Inter Milan are very favorites when hosting Napoli, their chances of securing full points are very big.

We know that Napoli have also just been eliminated in the last 16 of the Champions League, in Serie A their performance is very unstable, Inter Milan has the opportunity to beat them easily. It could be said that Inter Milan is no longer untouchable in leading the top of the standings, so that Inzaghi squad can add to their Scudetto collection again at the end of the season. With full focus on Serie A, Inter Milan can do its best to secure full points in the remaining matches ahead.
Almost no other club is able to disrupt Inter Milan's dominance at the top of the standings because currently the difference in points with the challengers is so far. The defeat received by Inter Milan in the Champions League which made them fail to advance to the next round will definitely make Inter Milan focus more on Serie A. The reason is that only in the Scudetto do they have one big opportunity at the moment so they have to try their best to be more consistent even though it is difficult for challengers to catch up on the points they have collected.

Both are eliminated from the race for the Champions League title, so they can focus more on Serie A and I am sure Inter Milan will win this match. Napoli has also made progress after changing coaches, but beating Inter Milan is not an easy task because they are now so strong in Serie A.

Napoli has been showing better performance in recent times. At least better compared to what they had been doing in this season. So there is hope for Napoli in this match. But the thing is, I think this match is going to be the one that breaks the lossless streak for Napoli. Inter Milan is performing really well and far better compared to Napoli. So if in this match they actually even drop points, let alone lose, it is going to be surprising.

I personally do not think that not playing in the Champions League competition anymore is going to have a big difference in their performance. Since both of them were not doing anything incredible in the Champions League anyway



Both teams will certainly make the match as a place of revenge for their defeat and elimination from the Champions League at this time, Intermilan is currently only focused on maintaining their position at the top of the standings while maintaining distance from AC Milan and Juventus at this time, actually Intermilan's position is very difficult to interfere with or even chased by other teams such as Ac Milan and Juventus, But surely 3 points will remain the main focus for Intermilan in every remaining game of the season, while Napoli certainly failure in the champions League should be a whiplash for them even better this season in keeping their chances of being able to earn a place in European competition next season.

I think the match will be a difficult match for both teams, even Intermilan who are now certain to secure the Scudetto will of course try to maintain their winning record in the match as well as not to get embarrassed in front of their own supporters, Napoli who come with high hopes will certainly try to avenge their defeat in the previous match and certainly both teams will try to play all out in the match Later to be able to get 3 full points in the match.

Napoli will try to win this match and they will go as hard as they can to do so. Because if they can win this one, and if somehow the two teams above them actually lose, it is going to be great for them because they will be in for the race to the fifth position. And I think the 5th position is the one that can be achieved by them. So they will be looking to get three points. But at the same time, they will also be careful that they do not lose trying to do so. Inter Milan will just try to get three points. I expect them to go in with a game plan and if they can execute the plan well there should not be any problem.
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 17, 2024, 12:20:48 AM
It is clear that we are going to end up with something that may cause Real to have "trouble" at la liga, but we need to consider that we are not going to really end up with anything major, this is Real we are talking about and even if they end up losing at league, they are still far ahead so it will be ok. So that means, they could literally rest the whole team that plays in City games, they could just play the young players at league games, that way all the players will have a week break at least when the yare playing.

This should benefit them, it is not going too crazy, they are players who earn millions of euros a year, they should not be using fatigue as a reason to lose, they are getting paid all that money to win those games, if they lose, then fatigue can't be blamed.

As you have said, even if they lose a match or two they would be okay. Girona just lost their recent match, creating even more of a gap. But the schedules are too harsh these days, players are getting injured more frequently and to be honest, reducing the quality of football.

In my mind, I think Real Madrid will win the league title. Girona kind of gave up which I found surprising. I thought they still would try to bounce back after that defeat. Barcelona might even snatch the 2nd position tomorrow if they manage to beat Atletico Madrid next season. What I am more excited to see is the playoff matches between Real Madrid and Manchester City. These two teams have faced off against each other twice in recent times in the UCL playoffs with both teams winning once. This would be really interesting for any football fan.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 16, 2024, 08:31:10 PM
Leverkusen definitely got by very thin margins at europa, which tired them out a lot, wouldn't be shocked with a surprise this week. To be fair it looks like we are going to see something that will take a while for them to recover, but meanwhile they will face many opponents and get back to europa again, so they can't rest a lot.

My suggestion would be using bench players this week, since they are too far ahead already, there is no point in trying to win, use the bench players and young players and rest your real squad, that way they could end up playing next up a lot better with their real eleven. This is a tactic that many teams use, and I believe that it would benefit them, if they keep playing their real players, they may get injured.
To be fair, they wouldn't evne care neither, thats the point. If Bundesliga was still a tight fight, and they still tried their best, then yeah even with being tired after Europa they could still win. However, they have like 10 point difference last I remember, don't know the latest situation but the difference was huge, meaning that with few games left, it looks like they may actually not do all that differently, and could probably do fine.

This is why I believe that we should probably consider this situation to be a little different, can't see how they are not all that well. I believe that we are going to put in something that would take a while, so Leverkusen could just put bench players and lose because of that.


Their next match is against Freiburg, a relatively strong team in the Bundesliga. These new fixtures are getting too harsh, especially for the teams which play in the European Leagues and survive till the end of the season. The workload is too much. Toni Kroos had complained about it a few years ago. And if the teams have top quality players who get chances in their own National teams, the workload is way too much. To be honest, this is reducing the quality of the league and football.

But Bayer Leverkusen has nothing to worry about, I believe they would be able to beat Freiburg but it would be hard. A draw is a realistic result, they can keep their undefeated streak as well.

Charith Asalanka and Pathum Nissanka's impeccable partnership when the Sri Lankan team was on the way to victory, Bangladesh bowlers were helpless as they could not get them out. Then I remember the world's best all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan. It seemed that if Shakib Al Hasan, the world's best all-rounder, could have played in today's match, he would have broken the partnership of the two, and Shakib Al Hasan could have taken the wicket in the difficult times of Bangladesh. However, there was no shortage of efforts by Bangladeshi bowlers. But maybe the luck of Bangladesh did not cooperate. Due to which Bangladesh had to lose the match won against Sri Lanka. However, in the third one-day match, who will win the one-day series, Bangladesh or Sri Lanka? If Bangladesh wants to win, Bangladesh's opener batsmen must bat responsibly. If the openers of Bangladesh cannot bat responsibly, the series like the T20 series will be lost from Bangladesh.
Charith Asalanka and Pathum Nissanka played well together and helped Sri Lanka win against Bangladesh.  By the way Shakib was not playing it is not just because of that they won. Luck plays a part in cricket but how well team plays on the field is what really matters. In next match both teams need to focus on playing well as team not just relying on individual players. Bangladesh openers need to bat responsibly and whole team needs to work together for success. Final result of series will depend on which team plays better on day because cricket is unpredictable.

@synchronym

I agree with you that Bangladeshi openers need to do better and it seems like they are already taking steps to do that.
They have dropped Litton Das who has been struggling recently and added Jaker Ali Anik to their team.

Now what I am more curious about is their team combination.
Soumya will be their first opener. As for their second opener, there are 3 possible players.
First is Anamul Haque Bijoy, second is Tanzim Tamim and third is Mehedi Miraz.

I am curious if Jaker would get his position in the XI as well.
There is a chance that Taijul might get dropped and Jaker Ali will replace him.

But then there will be a lack of left-hand spinner. When Shakib Al Hasan usually plays, they never had to worry about this stuff, Shakib would have covered both the left-hand spinner space and batting space single handedly.

In today's match Peshawar Zalmi is going to face Islamabad United. Islamabad United team got a great win against Quetta Gladiators in yesterday's match. Islamabad's batsmen and bowlers both performed very well in this match.

The last two matches between Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United were very competitive. We saw high scores in both the matches. Peshawar Zalmi set a big target of 202 runs in the first match and Peshawar Zalmi won the match by just 8 runs. And in the second match, Islamabad United set a target of 197 runs, which Islamabad United won by 29 runs.

And so I think there is a high chance of seeing a high score in today's match as well. Peshawar Zalmi team played very well in the group stage. However, if the batsmen do not perform well in today's match, victory against Islamabad United is not possible.
It is very difficult to predict these two teams today, as two matches were played against these two teams twice in the past.  Each team was roughly equal in terms of experience, and the two matches were tied 1-1. So today between these two teams, the team that can perform better will win. So I don't find much difference between these two groups.  Peshawar Zalmi team player Babar Azam performed well in a match due to which Babar Azam's team won easily. 
But the team lost due to Babar Azam not performing well in the next match, so the unique players are less experienced except Babar Azam. So today if Babar Azam's team with Babar Azam performs well from the beginning of the game then surely Peshwar Zalmi team has a chance to win.
The previous two matches between these two teams were very competitive. However, the team that batted first was able to win. Islamabad United won the toss and decided to field in today's match. Batting first, perhaps Islamabad United could have provided a bigger target.

However, Peshawar Zalmi batted very poorly in their last match against Multan Sultans. From the beginning of the innings, the batsmen of Peshawar Zalmi were batting slowly. And in the end they failed to deliver the big target and lost the match as well. If Peshawar Zalmi's batsmen keep batting so slowly in today's match, they will not be able to win.



Peshawar Zalmi players will not make the same mistakes as in the previous match. Two openers of Peshawar Zalmi are batting quite well today. Peshawar Zalmi managed to collect 41 runs in every 4 overs of the power play. Babar Azam remained unbeaten with 15 runs off 12 balls and Saim Ayub on 26 off 12 balls.

If you want to win against Islamabad United, you have to provide a big target. I would say atleast 190+ must be collected by Peshawar Zalmi players if they want to win. The pitch is batting friendly. Peshawar Zalmi will not be in the safe zone even after giving a big target on this pitch. However, if the target is less than 180 I would say Peshawar Zalmi will lose this match.

This is a very accurate issue, the issue of monitoring during work and preserving privacy, it is clear that the need to monitor employees during work is a matter of concern to all companies and give them a priority on the issue of the privacy of employees.

As many indicated here, I do not think that there is a privacy for employees regarding work, the administration sees its right to look at everything that its employees do, whether in offices, computers, or mobile phones, so they will not hesitate to set devices and monitoring programs for all these things.

It is assumed that employees have no things they want to hide, so they should not complain about the issue of privacy at work.

So far,technology has done more good to businesses and firms,but this issue of where the employers are literally been monitored against their will or consent is totally unagreeable.

Employees are indeed entitled to a private life,and their way of life should also be respected.Many reputable business organizations where there safety and security means a lot to them will continue to install and install too much electronic gadgets for the sole purpose of of protecting their company's privacy and ensuring safety.It seems to be an important factor to them as it enhances a smooth and easy running of company's activities to be precise.

If those companies and organizations do not strengthen supervision and strict inspection of their employees. Some of those employees intentionally sabotage or sell important company documents, or do not comply with rules and refuse to work hard, causing damage to the business. Causing difficulties for businesses, even bankruptcy, and thousands of people will be unemployed. So do you think your privacy is more important or the lives of those thousands of employees are more important? And is it worth it when just because one person causes chaos in the company just because we demand privacy, it affects the whole group?

If we are not satisfied with that company because they do not respect our privacy, then we should leave immediately because no one is forcing us to stay. If you have to depend on them, you need to comply with the rules of the game they set.

What's the essence of all the hustle and bustle and learning and reading and keeping all the sleepless night? Isn't it all about money?

What if I don't want to go through all these process, don't care if I'm a graduate or not or if I'm good at speaking good English or not buth I'm just focused on how to make the money and end up making the money, won't the end justify the means?

I sometimes feel that some of these ideal process that has been accepted by the majority of the people in the society as a part to be taken to greatness is too complex. I mean, we can just learn how to read and write and focus on how to make money. Those who want to become engineers can choose to do so but those that don't want to pass through those route shouldn't be seen as less of a person because at the end of the day, it's mostly all about money.

It's true that the most important thing is money, but knowledge is no less important because if we have the knowledge and skills, we can make much more money. If we don't have knowledge, we will be employees and we will always learn things that are important and useful for your future because at the end of the day it's also just about money


Both are equally necessary and important because if you don't have money, how can you access the best education to have the best knowledge? Let's look at reality, rich families always send their children to international standard schools and must admit that those children have broader knowledge than children who only study at local schools. So it can be said that the two have a close relationship with each other because most talented people will make a lot of money , and vice versa, talented people are very good at making money.

I don't feel that it is a mistake when someone prefers to save their salary rather than investing it. Because not everyone wants to invest their money, either because their knowledge is limited to it or for other reasons. So whether someone saves or invests doesn't matter, because both are equally good, but it's even better if both things are done together.

When asked whether it is better to invest or save, we might say why not both? Everyone has different opinions on this issue and many opinions are useful. Sometimes we invest, sometimes we save, depending on the circumstances of the time. Acting according to our needs does not always make us do the same thing, so I agree with what you say.

Sometimes we can choose to invest and sometimes we can choose to save. If you know when it is a good time to invest or when it is a good time to save, you can do both.
I would definitely be saying the same on which why wont be taking both if you could actually be able to do it? When it comes to savings then this is something that should be in default but if you do saw
that you are really just that having no progress in towards your living or on how much you do earn then it would really be that wise that you should make use of those savings for you to make investment.
It would really be that much better that you should really know on what you are doing and taking up some risks for you to be able to enhance up yourself on having a better living.

Although not all would really be able to bare up with the risks on which they would rather be that tending to stay still and would really be that totally that contented on what
they do currently have. It would be your choice though because not all would really be risk takers and there are ones who are really that playing safe.


This issue has been discussed many times and no one forbids us to use both, why do we always want to choose one? Saving for emergencies and investing gives us the opportunity to increase our assets for a better future. Both are necessary needs for us to have a good life. But it's funny how many people act smart when they don't need to save and will invest all the money they have. Have they ever thought about what they would do if their investments lost money and they encountered difficulties in life? If they don't have savings, what will they do?

It's hard to believe that despite greenwood's bad story in manchester united and now there are multiple clubs have ben callling to buy him from manchester united which is very good progress from him caused by i though greenwood's career have already ended. I read a few weeks ago that Barcelona was interested in recruiting him as a new striker, and el blaugrana had made direct contact with United's representative about the possibility of him being recruited as a new striker but still no update regarding whether barcelona will buy him or not. Another rumor has surfaced, this time from Atletico Madrid which is telling public about their interest to recruit him as a new striker. I can understand it since atletico madrid must also regenerate its players. Some players are getting olders and they may not capable enough to compete in la liga.

Diego simeone took him as one of potential striker to be recruited. Greenwood is still young enough and a very good striker. People were only underestimating him due to the his scandal but it doesn't remove the fact that if green wood was a good player.
It can be seen from how greenwood was able shining again after he had got scandal that was almost destroying his career. Despite his previous scandal, Greenwood has received some demands.

Greenwood is rediscovering his best performances. I think that if club is only need his skills to play as a striker and it's not about his previous scandal.
I'd even like Paris Saint Germans to make a bold move for him, he would be the right man to replace Kylian Mbappe, he might not be as pacy as the french man but definitely, you can count on him for scoring goals.

Well, I understand what you are saying. But the problem is, he is not going to be anything similar to what they had.
You know, they had the best player in the world at this moment. And now it is going to be a big downgrade for them.
But I also do not know which other player they will be able to target. Osimhen is an option but Chelsea's after him.


Saddens me to see that, Manchester United are no longer ready to see him returning. He would have been a great combination with Kobbie Mainoo, Rasmus Hojlund, and lastly Garnacho leading the pack next season. He is a good lad, it's enough reason why Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are simply after him.

Actually,  Manchester United have created this problem for themselves.
You know, hey have not been able to keep good relations with the players.
Along with this, they have also not fixed the real problem which is the coach.
And that's why players who were actually serious about playing for Manchester United are not interested in the club anymore
