This will be the closing match of the first week in the EPL, I don't think it will be difficult for Man United to get three points. Mason Mount, Onana, Rasmus Hojlund will make their first debuts with Man United, I think Ten Hag will play all three in the meeting against Wolves at Old Trafford.

The last five meetings between the two have placed Man United as the favourites, winning four and losing one time. For tomorrow United will start their positive trend in this new season after many changes in the squad.
Manchester united would definitely be the favorites because not only have they won more in the previous match between both teams but they've got a better and more improved squad than Wolves, Mason Mount and Onana would be available to make their debut but i don't think Højlund will because he's not fully recovered from the back injury he suffered from Atlanta before his arrival to Manchester united, though he's resumed fitness training,  but the coach won't take chances and it might take atleast 2-3 weeks before he'll make his debut for Manchester united.
 Højlund is one player most Manchester united fans are hoping to see playing soon in the Manchester United jersey but however his absence in the squad doesn't mean they have a good performance against Wolves the most favorites and would be playing with a home advantage at Old Trafford.

Both teams are going to start with loses but here we have to understand one this as well both teams are having completely different sources and quality as well with Werder Bremen have no win in last five games of this season while Bayern Munich is much stronger and better team and in last five games between these two teams Werder Bremen never won any game with Bayern Munich won 4 and one ended as draw so most chances this match is going to be one-sided and things will be in complete control of defending champions.

Kane is surely going to take some time because now completely different team and players with conditions are also new for him, but still most chances he will be best for the defending champions, and we will have his name as top scorer as well in this season.
Bayern Munich probably did not perform well in the opening match. The team will expect good things from the current addition of Harry Kane in the team. But what kind of performance Harry Kane will do at this age can be understood by watching some matches.
@jostorres that match wasn't the opening match of the season but rather a super cup final against Leipzig and the failed to win it for the first time since 2019 if they had won it would had been the 12th consecutive super cup they would have got in their possession,  the thing is that bayern is a big team and the lose won't affect their performance this season though the fans and squad would be unhappy that they lost with 3 goals to Leipzig but they'll definitely bounce back.
 It's left for the coach to boost the morale of his players to gain confidence agsinst the new season and im quite sure they might likely dominate again and win the trophy this season, Harry kane just got in and was introduced im the game without a proper training and understanding of his teammates but i think his performance would  be different during their opener against Werder Bremen because he would have had some training sessions and get to blend in with his teammates.

How strong these two teams will be tested when they face Manchester city in the upcoming match. Will not underestimate Liverpool or Chelsea this season because they are trying to get back to their best path this season. A draw was relatively acceptable for both fans in their first match of the season because these two teams displayed a more aggressive game in the match.

But looking at the statistics for the title race this season, of course, there is a big chance that Manchester city is still in control. I think Kloop and Pochettino will try to thwart Manchester City mission this season if they are able to display full concentration to win in the next match.
Yeps - a draw is still reasonable to hope for considering I don't see the Chelsea vs Liverpool game as an easy one. Liverpool had a chance to win - so did Chelsea, but I'm disappointed with the result of that game, actually really hoping Liverpool can get 3 points.

I hope Mohamed Salah doesn't take his frustrations out on Jürgen Klopp too much and forgets about this day. Jürgen Klopp should try his luck by giving chances to other players when Liverpool have trouble scoring goals. I know Salah feel disappointed by the substitutions - but the coach also needs to try a few things for the team.

The game between Liverpool and Chelsea finished with a 1-1 result and Klopp couldn't get the full three points from this game against Chelsea which is a totally new team that lost many players, however, I think Chelsea even had a better performance than Liverpool and if Pochettino continues this performance they can even get better results soon.
But in this game, Salah, the superstar in Liverpool was not happy at all with the substitution and I think Klopp will talk to this player and there is even the chance to don't seeing him in the next game


I knew the match likely be a draw and stated it in one of my post yesterday because both clubs had poor performance last season and wouldnt want to start the new season with a defeat, Chelsea on the other hand just got a new coach and even bought a good number of talented players to back him up so I thought he would likely want to impress his the club owners by starting with a good record agsinst Liverpool, Klopp on the other hand would not want to lose at the beginning of the season
 If you noticed Chelsea played better than the previous season and with some of their key players injured they still managed a draw against Liverpool it's show they're ready and got a better coach with good Premier league experience that would help them challenge for a trophy or the top 4 this season.

This is a pretty bad start to the season for Barcelona in my opinion.

Lewandowski was a bit ineffective in this game, but he is still at the beginning of the season. I think it's normal to see performances like this in such periods. I really liked the performance of Gavi, who came on later in the game, he prevented a Getafe goal in the last minutes of the game. Also, Lamine Yamal was very good. He's only 16 but the Barcelona jersey suits him very well. He has a good chance of becoming a star. Barcelona gave positive signals for the new season but didn't play good football in the first game. Next week they play with Cadiz at home. I have no doubt that they will try harder for the three points.
Most big teams didnt perform well in the first week of match opening,it might be as a result of the rest they had during the sumner.Some of them didn't train much,and for the ones that went on preseason,they still lack that match energy and fitness,but I think they will do much better in their next game.Lewandowski tried his best,but as you said,it is still very early and Barcelona fans need to be patient with him.Their next game is Cadiz and we all know Cadiz for draw,it will definitely be a tough match,but all they need to do is play their own pattern of football,take their chances and win that game.It will really be an interesting game to watch because Cadiz will be all out to atleast get a point from that encounter,and since Barcelona is at home,they won't want to draw again,atleast three points is what they will be fighting for and I think they will win.
You don't expect  all players from big teams to pick up form, there are some players that have good performances in the pre-season and brought that form into the new season to help their teams performances  while  some players came back from injuries and couldn't recover their form early thereby affecting the teams performances, but however barca really tried to win the match but were so unlucky to get the ball in the net.
 The had 14 shots with 4 on target thats good compared to the opposition that had 5 with just 2 on target, if you noticed they possessed the ball most of the time just the defence like of getafe was too strong fot them to convert a goal, xavi failed to reqd the game and it affected them and I think he won't likely make same mistake against Cadiz and would be looking to win and cover up the gap from their rivals.

I guess women's football is two to three decades behind the men's variety. Back in the 1990s, we used to have such one-sided matches in men's football as well. But now the gap between the top teams and the tier-2 teams have narrowed down. Same will happen with the women's game, but it is going to take some time and a lot of investment from the FIFA. I agree that we will not witness an equivalent of Morocco reaching the semi-finals within the next decade in women's football. Because the women's game is confined to a handful of countries as of now.

I think it is aimed at countries that have money to invest.
Contrary to what happens in men's football, where good players emerge with almost no investment, in women's football a strong investment is needed to attract people to this sport. Perhaps African countries will be in the worst position in this field, both for cultural and economic reasons.
But things are looking up, and in 10-20 years, it will be an equally popular sport.
The women's football is gradually becoming popular and  in less than 10 years there would be a lot of investment in it like that of the mens, because i noticed that the number of people that are beginning to pick interest in viewing the competition increased better than the previous times and gradually it would begin to attract investors in the near future.
 I think FIFA is really trying in making the women's football gain populariry and lots more fun to watch and the competition is becoming stronger stronger countries like Brazil, Germany and frabce are out of the league already and England that would be playing Australia the day after tomorrow to qualify for the finals almost got kicked out by the Super Eagles.

So Neymar is being offered a lower amount compared to his existing deal by Al Hilal? I checked the details and looks like his salary has actually gone up. Al Hilal is offering £138 million for a two-year contract. PSG's deal was worth €222 million for 5 years. So factoring in everything, his salary has gone up in the vicinity of 2x. But when compared to the deals being offered by Saudi clubs to players such as Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema, this amount looks low for me. Anyway, Neymar has already finished the negotiations and will be moving to Saudi soon.

Not all the player get the same offer and they are offered based on their game in the past.Al Hilal had give the offer to Neymar is half of the payment of other player offer for one year.So it may made Neymar to get into the middle of the decision.PSG deal of 222 million for five years mean 44 million per year is little compared to 67.5 million and the duration itself the difference.The 222 million offer for the five year,So he had assured for the five year term.The new offer is like 2x for the two year period.Now he need to decide the correct offer.The offer for the Mbappe is huge as compared to many player from the Saudi Arabia Club.The ultimate aim of Saudi Arabia Club is to take all the player to their game.
I think the Saudi club play wages to European players based on their level of reputation and trophies or personal titles that's why Mbappe and Benzema's offer would be higher than that of Neymar's but i think this Saudi players have a ways of luring European players with huge offers that some would likely turn down no wonder some managers are saying that they're the cause of hike in players transfer fees but i don't feel it's true because even before the SPL started offering huge salaries in contract negotiations the hike of players have been ongoing in England and accross Europe.
 I think if it continue going like this a time would come when a player would be bought for almost 500m or more, but let's be realistic 67.5million is a very huge offer that most players would likely reject and with Neymar being a player that leaves a lavish kind of lifestyle he'll need more funs in his pocket.

Finally, the rumors about who the injured goalkeeper will replace Courtois have received an answer and Real Madrid have announced their recruitment via their social media. He is the Chelsea keeper Kepa who is on loan for a season to replace Courtois and I think this is a pretty good signing. There were rumors that Bounou from Sevilla was Real Madrid's target, but considering that Sevilla wanted a permanent deal for Bounou, this made Real Madrid discourage him. Now Kepa will become a pillar for Real Madrid and of course his battle with Lunin for the main place will soon be carried out.
Real Madrid bouncing back to LA Liga with so much fire this new season, already got the good quality players that would upgrade the club's performance. Carlo Ancelotti is satisfied to work with the new players, he ensured he filled in every gap left in his squad. However his team got a little bit challenges this season, with injuries hitting his crucial players, but he fixed it. Real Madrid signed Arrizagbala Kepa on loan from chelsea, it's very important Los Blancos gets a replacement for Thibaut Courtois and they did, the Belgium international was ruled out for 6-7 months due to a severe injury he sustained in his left knee.
Last season they lost the league trophy to Barcelona and also missed out on getting the champions league trophy when they got beaten by Manchester City in the finals, so i think this season they'll won't like to take chances and would definitely try to win the Champions League and bring it back to a spain therefore they bought in some young and talented prospect but I think one thing they fail to do is get a better replacement for Benzema.
 And also since their goalie Thibaut Courtois would be having a long injury spell they decided to get a younger experienced one from that would serve them on a long term as well as a possible replacement for Courtois in the near future, i feel so sad for Courtois for beginning the season with a long term ínjury and he could likey lose his starting position to Kepa if Kepa performs and impress the coach.

From the reports that's been emanating from different sports tabloids in main land Europe, it seems like Kylian Mbappe will extend his contract with Paris Saint Germaine. He joined the first team to training yesterday and that's another strong indication that he might stay back at PSG.
That being said, if Kylian Mbappe extends his contract with PSG once again after initially making public of his decision to leave it'll somehow define him as a player whose decisions are very flexible and can be easily influenced  with money. PSG owner chairman Nasser Al-Khelaïfi  knows Kylian Mbappe's weakness and might make him change his mind once again with big financial offers

 The thing is that PSG won't want to lose on of their priced player for free to they had to look for any possible mean to pin him with a new contract with huge offer so they'll benefits from any transfer deal involving him next  summer PSG also played a big one on him by involving a huge demand that would chase away possible bidders then demoted him to training with the youth team and comeup with a contrast when they knew he had no choice but to accept the deal so as to see a playing time  this season.
 But i still feel they'll take advantage of this new decision by Mbappe and try to make him sign another contract with them next summer, my question is that with Mbappe signing a new contract with PSG is there any chances that he'll move to Realmadrid next summer because it would had been very getting him on a free transfer by sunmer, well only time will tell
4009  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 14, 2023, 12:53:00 PM
Milan have taken really big steps this summer so far. While not losing many important players they have made 8 transfers 2 of which are free transfers. They spent around 110 million euros for the remaining 6 players in total. This is quite a serious amount as I don't remember them spending this much money in a transfer window for a while.

It looks like they want to start strongly to this season to be one of the title contenders. Because their last season effort was quite inadequate compared to the previous one in which they won the league title.

But one thing is important that after adding this many players they need to work hard to keep the chemistry among the players high.
Having signed about 8 players this season they are said to be  having the best transfer window and would definitely be one of the title contenders last season they had a good performance both in the league and transfer window and almost qualified for the finals, well i think they'l look more tougher than the previous season since they introduced some quality players into the club
 If you noticed of recent most top European clubs are strengthening their teams to build a stronger squad that would  not only challenge well in their various leagues but also for the champions league and that's one thing AcMilan have also done this season and if you notice in their recent friendly match against  novara though the opposition is a smaller team but the new players where the ones getting the goals and fans would be hoping they maintain that form when the league starts.
4010  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 14, 2023, 12:34:17 PM
Neymar is set to undergo his medical examination in Paris within the next few hours, before finalizing a 2-season contract with Al-Hilal. This transfer is expected to bring in just under €100 million for PSG, including bonuses. Following his medical, Neymar is anticipated to make his way to Riyadh sometime this week. I'm not surprised by this transfer, since the rumors first emerged, I was already convinced that Neymar would move to the Arab league, as his high salary makes it impossible for European clubs to sign him.
It's nice to see Neymar team up with the likes of  Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic at Al-Hilal, It obvious that a mouthwatering offer worth €100 million paid to PSG is too massive to be rejected by the club considering lack of game time of Neymar Jr due to injury in PSG and lives a lavish lifestyle in Paris, though he is a very skillful and talented player if fit, it's now obvious that all the Saudi Arabian bound European based players are after money even players who are not close to retirement like Neymar couldn't resist the juicy contract offered by Al-Hilal which I believe will be more than what he earns in PSG.
I knew that after losing the Arab club championship cup to their arch rival Al-Hilal that they'll definitely get new signings that would help strengthen the club in preparation of the season against rivalry teams and that why they've decision to get Neymar though I feel  the money they offered is too much for an injury prone player that can play for 2months without sustaining and injury neymar is a skillful player and would want to play and entertaining kind of football and dribbles alot and that style of play attracts injury.
 I don't think at the moment most top European club would come for him due to his much injury spells  and he knew he won't get much praying time at PSG that's why he decided to seize the opportunity and move to where he could get playing time, also the kind of money he'll receive is enough to make him change his mind and decide to move to Al-Hilal.
4011  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 14, 2023, 12:08:23 PM


In the first week of the EPL, only 6 teams managed to secure 3 points and the rest only shared the same 1 point or even no one got any points at all. Currently, Newcastle is at the top of the standings, followed by Brighton, Manchester City and Arsenal. But there is still one more match left for the first week of the EPL and today will bring together Manchester United vs Wolves.

Of course, Manchester United is definitely favored because it will be the host and I'm quite curious to wait for Rasmus Hojlund's debut wearing the red devil jersey later. It is likely that Erik ten hag will appear directly with his main squad and seeing Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs only get one point, this will be an opportunity for him to push to the top if he manages to beat Wolves.
I think Man United must have high expectations this season because they have spent a lot of money to bring in several new players (Mason Mount, Andre Onana, and Rasmus Hojlund). The match against Wolves is a good opportunity for Man United to get a great start. This should be an easy victory for Man United because they will be playing at home and I guess they will have high motivation to win. I personally hope to see Hojlund's debut in this first fight but it doesn't look like he will be played by Ten Hag due to fitness constraints.
It's a shame that it seems like Rasmus Hojlund won't be able to make his first debut in the first and second matches in the Premier League this season. Due to his fitness issues it looks like he will need at least 2 to 3 weeks for him to recover properly. So for the match against Wolves it is certain that Rasmus Hojlund will not play. It is even reported that in the second match against Tottenham Rasmus Hojlund will remain absent. And it's estimated that Rasmus Hojlund will start making his debut in Week 3 against Nottingham Forest.

But luckily Manchester United still have a lot of great players in the club. And Rasmus Hojlund's absence on the pitch shouldn't impact the club much at this time. And I also think that in today's game against Wolves, Manchester United should be able to make good use of it and get full points.
Playing without Rasmus won't mean anything for The United Squad against wolves because the manchester united Squad looks for balanced and they don't currently have any key player on injury marcus Rashford is currently in a good form and Gernacho as well and if you noticed their matches in pre-season  Matheus Antony is beginning to pick and performanced better than last season  and they now have a keeper in person of Onana that would help them from the build up to make a quick counter attack against smaller teams.

 Luckily for them the transfer window is still on and they could likely get another striker if Anthony Martial connection with Westham becomes real, this is going to be a good test for Erik Ten Hag to know if he still need some work done at some other areas of the squad depth, but i know United would have a good performance and whether they do or not more signings would definitely come in before the window closes.
4012  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 13, 2023, 10:44:16 PM
Schmeichel is reported to be joining Chelsea after Kepa's departure. Actually Chelsea have newly signed Robert Sanchez who is also a decent goalkeeper. But they did this while there wasn't anything on the table like Kepa leaves the team. Therefore this situation might mean that they will sign another goalkeeper.

Schmeichel is a very experienced goalkeeper. He is 36 years old though but he can still do a good work when he is given chances. There would be some nice competition between Sanchez and him in this situation. Sanchez's point against Liverpool wasn't much impressive as well by the way.
The likely departure of Kepa came as a suprise but i later discovered that Realmadri chose him due to his age and as a possibile replacement for courtious in case he leaves in the near future and i think Chelsea  made the perfect choice when they Choose Roberto Sanchez to replace mendy, he's had experience in the league while praying for Brighton and is also a proven keeper and i think he's going to help Chelsea alot, even though  his performance against Liverpool wasn't all impressive but we all know how good he could be when it comes to making good saves.
 Instead of chelsea to go for Schmeichel they would had gone for degea who's a better, a bit younger and cheaper option and would be very beneficial to their club in making good saves that might even force the coach to think of making him the number one choice, just that he might not want to come in as a second choice but i think he could give it a second thought of wanting to come back to the English Premier League if they had gone for him.

It is difficult to describe how the current situation is in the Jeventus squad, recently it was reported that Bonucci was crossed out in the Massimiliano Allegri project. As a consequence of the unilateral termination of the contract, Bonucci will take legal action to demand salary compensation from Juventus management. For Napoli, who lost Osimhen in several matches due to injury, it will certainly reduce the depth of their squad.

Agree with you I will put AC Milan, Inter Milan and add AS Roma to the list of favorites in the hunt for the Scudetto.
The hunt for the Scudetto this season will probably be very different because apart from some people who will favor the three teams you mentioned, I think Napoli and Lazio will also provide interesting surprises in Serie A this season because Napoli still has to be reckoned with in terms of the title race in Serie A. this season because the injury suffered by Osimhen is not a serious obstacle for Napoli to return to performing well in Serie A this season.
It's interesting to see the competition getting fiercer, it makes it harder for a team to win the title, and that's what we all want to see, especially me. If there's only one club dominating, it gets monotonous, and we can already guess who's the champion.
Unlike last season, when Napoli raced ahead of their rivals, it didn't become a monotonous competition, because Napoli themselves had been fasting for the title for so long, and when they returned it became something interesting.
Now the situation will be much more difficult, and there are some names that are indeed favorites. And we can't be sure which of them is the biggest favorite.

With all the competition, being better in the upcoming season and Napoli themselves, and getting a new coach, I highly doubt that they will be able to perform as well as they did in the last season. They were quite consistent in the last season except from a few mistakes here and there. But in this season, they will find it hard. The consistency is going to happen because of the new coach in my opinion. The new coach will need a little time to actually settle with the club. The tactics are going to be different. Not with what Napoli players are accustomed to. But even though it is going to be hard, it is not going to be impossible.
Most people think the change of coach might affect their performance in the new season, but i think it's quite too early to judge them with that due to the fact that we've not seen them play yet with their new coach, it might take a while for the players to adapt to his style of play but it's a 50/50 chance because we're yet to discover that, however he has the squad and a number of quality players under his control what he just need is to boost their morale  with a good strategy that would help them continue with that winning mentality and team spirit they had in the previous season, I don't think the task ahead is going to be hard for Rudi Garcia if he builds a good relationship with his players and have each of them in their rightful position instead of making too much changes that would cause confusion in the team, i like the fact that he's replaced most of the players hed sold with new ones and would also help him as well incase he needs to rotate his players.

After Harry Kane left Tottenham in this transfer and since was the captain of Tottenham they had to choose a new one and that's why Son Heung-min is the player who is going to be the next captain of Tottenham. This Asian player join Tottenham back in 2015 and he had a good performance during this time in this team. He is even one year older than Harry Kane.

Oh, Sonny boy! After Kane's departure, I felt Son stepped up significantly for Tottenham. In comparison, considering Richarlison as captain is, well, a tad comical. I have heard rumors linking Lukaku to Tottenham, but let's be honest: with AC Milan in the picture and his Serie A aspirations, I am skeptical. Remember the days when player transfers were straightforward? Today, everything is drama and suspense. Lukaku's European love triangle must cease immediately


There was no better player in the Tottenham Hotspur squad to take up the role of captaincy at the club after Harry Kane's departure like Son Heung-Min and the total acceptance of his new role at the club by the players when the club manager Ange Postecoglou announced his new role was another strong indication that Son is definitely the best for the role.
Tottenham must now try and sign another striker to the club  to replace their former captain
It's a wise decision for Ange Postecoglou to make Son the replacement for the Captaincy role in Tottenham, he's the most preferred option for that role due to his devotion to the club for the past years and thank goodness the whole players accepted him to take up that position his age and experience in the team would make his job as a captain very easy for him to control some certain situations both òn and off the pitch, congratulations to Son on his new role.
 Now Harry Kane has left the team and they've got a new replacement for his captaincy role now they need a new replacement for the role of a striker and I don't think they can depend on Richarlison alone through out the season so they'll need new reinforcement for that position before the end of the season, the money realised from the sale of Harry Kane is enough to fetch two young prospects that would last them for a long time instead them wasting it on seaeching for an already made talent that might not likely succeed in the team.

Not good debut for Harry Kane after Bayern Munich defeating by RB Leipzig on DFL Super Cup, actually Harry Kane play on 63th minutes and he has 30 minutes left but can't give best perform for Bayern and loss chance winning first tittle in his career. Actually Bayern Munich conceded two goals on first half and many substitute on second half but can't help more and Bayern Munich opening this season loss DFL Super Cup trophy. Its not ended for Harry Kane because he left many chance to get tittle this season from DFB Pokal, Bundesliga until chance for winning UEFA Champion League tittles.

Long term of contract duration have bigger chance for Harry Kane winning many tittle as possible because he don't win any tittle yet with Tottenham Hotspur or England national teams.

I think that Bayern's problem is the same as Chelsea faced before the current coach arrived. tuchel should have done the same thing chelsea did and i was already commenting that chelsea should have sold many players and brought others and luckily that's what chelsea's new coach did, tuchel should have seen that, he was at chelsea with that squad that did not score goals although they had many opportunities and now he has moved to bayern and is seeing the same scenario and tuchel underestimated the opponent a lot, probably the reason was to have spared players because the league games are already over start next week

if bayern had started playing with Kim Min-jae in defense, Kingsley Coman in attack and Harry Kane in attack I believe that bayern would have won this game although it would not have been a victory in which they would have scored 3 goals, even with the arrival of Harry Kane in the attack, the truth is that bayern need at least two more good strikers, if they only have Harry Kane and they don't sign 2 more good players for the attack then they won't get far in the european champions league , this squad from bayern has no chance of winning the european champions league and even in the bundesliga this season i see that things will be very difficult for bayern, the problem that is in the attack of bayern is a very big problem

just look at the numbers of that game, bayern had 68% of ball possession while Leipzig had only 32% of ball possession, I watched the whole game on tv and it was obvious Leipzig's superiority, the quality with which the players from Leipzig were showing that they were far superior to bayern, if Leipzig play like this every season and dortmund (see that dortmund won in their last game and scored 6 goals) also play well, then bayern could lose the bundesliga, this became a real possibility
I don't think this match would determine the outcome of their performance in the new season Bayern is a big Club and I think they'll learn from their mistake, it's just that he underestimate the ability of Leipzig and they took him by suprise so there was little left to do that's why the conceded 3 goals, if tuchel do not do something about this a let affect them next match that means it could be a treat to them winning the League and Dortmund would want to capitalise on their losses like they did last season and almost won the league.
 Thank goodness that Müller and Choupo-Moting have recovered from injury and back into the training and that's a boost for them in the attack, however this is the first trial for Harry Kane and all eyes would be on him due to the price he was  bought for he needs to adapt fast and start helping his team to score goals.

Vini didn't play like he usually does, it seems like he needs more time to start this competition to find his best game. getting the chance to appear as a substitute, Joselu, he hasn't shown the ability as expected.
All in all, Real Madrid played well, and we are starting to see the rotation that will be their strategy now that Modric and Kroos are no longer in the squad. Yes, they are starting to give their younger players a chance to feature from the first minute.

Barcelona will obviously win, they already show how good they're in the friendly matches.
Yes it's fair to predict they will win their first game, now they look much better prepared and stronger with some new players joining this season.
At home, although they are the favorites in this match, they must be careful. Getafe could be more than they bargained for, and surprise Barcelona.
I'm betting on Barcelona by the way.
Yeah I noticed that as well right from the pre-season normally in matches against lesser teams vini jnr would always make good attempts to get goals but chances where coming from Rodrygo and Bellingham and this match has shown that Madrid needs a better striker other than Joselu to get more goals if not they'll have to keep relying on goals from the flanks and midfield area
 
 I like the fact that the coach is giving younger players chances to express themselves and develop into world class players not all matches that you'll rely on old experienced players atleast they'll rotate them tougher opponets like Athletico Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, well as for Barcelona they've been impressive in the pre-season and I think they'll dominant against Getafe since they've got a better squad than last season.

Seriously, Liverpool vs. Chelsea will be a difficult game to predict. I am also expecting a draw in the match, but I won’t be surprised if Chelsea end up winning the match. If the match does not end in a draw, then any club that wins is going to have a slight goal difference between them.

The home factor might make Chelsea a little more confident. But from the appearance in the EPL the rest of last season, Liverpool have improved more.  Pochetino's challenge if he manages to win maybe they will have a better move for the next game. Pochetino and Klopp had almost the same fate last season, this season they have to work hard if they want to compete with Man City. They must seize the moment of transfer to improve club strength.

last season and this season is just a few months apart, so lets say that Chelsea required some time to improve from how they played last season, I don't think that improvement must have happened in just his few months between last season and now, So yeah, i have to agree with you, Liverpool has more chances of winning their match against Chelsea today, if not for any thing, but for the fact that they have been the major competitor against Manchester city in the last season's EPL like you mentioned, and i personally think they like to continue with that competition even in this premier league season..

And even looking at the odds for this two teams on the bookmakers, the closeness shows that people are actually confused on which of this two teams to bet on, Chelsea going with 2.80 while Liverpool is going with 2.34, 3.40 for draw, this would surely be an interesting match to watch honestly.
If you watch the way Chelsea played in the Pre-season you'll notice that they've really improved from how they performed last season to a better performance and that's the impact of brining in a good an experienced coach into a team and if you noticed what pochetino's did, he first off remove the players that where eager to leave and kept those he'll be able to work with and included some young talented players into the squad, my only fear is the injured players that could affect their chances of winning because in the pre-season i saw that there's a connection between Mudryk, Nkunku and Madueke they understand each other and with Nkunku being injured is a set back for those other two players.
 If you're to mention the major competitors last season against Mancity then it would be Arsenal who almost won the league if not for the draw against Southampton and few loses that made them bottle the league and finished in 2nd Liverpool didn't finish in the top 4 so I wouldn't consider them competitors of last season.

And all this with two red cards in the game... one of which was not an active player. The other was for Al-Amri in minute 71, so that was over 50 minutes with one player less and still won. Ronaldo has now won his first title and now with in few better players the league championship is also possible. Mane and Brozovic are also getting better. I hope Ronaldo is not injured.
this is what Im worried about if an injury occurs to Ronaldo this will greatly affect Al Nassr performance even though Sadio Mane and Brozovic also had good performances here but an important role is Ronaldo who has always been a mainstay of the team to be able to score in every match and I can not imagine what if the fear occurs.
because a top player like Ronaldo is sometimes too ambitious to keep scoring goals and ignores his health, for example, his leg already feels something different, he should rest and see a doctor or if he is not too enthusiastic on the field until a collision occurs.
well, hopefully Ronaldo will continue to be fine as long as he does not retire.
What suprises  me about Ronaldo is that he keeps adding to his record even at his age, and if he continue scoring more goals it would be very difficult for anyone in this generation to tally his goal scoring record, I don't think Ronaldo is an injury prone player and even when he goes on a injury it doesn't take too long for him to recover he's proved to the world that  his age cannot be a barrier to his scoring ability.
 And the introduction of new players like Mane and benzovic would make it easier for him to score more goals, i think in a case of injuries they'll use Mane as an option for scoring goals he's also a good player and has had good performances for Al-Nassr so far.

I think both teams have improved but Klopp's team would look more dominant because they've got more quality players in their squad whereas Chelsea have a good number of injured players including Christian Nkunku and that's a very big advantage for Liverpool I won't judge based on their previous meetings last season because they've both included quality players in their squad depth and Chelsea have got a new coach in person of Pouchettino that had experience in the Premier League before now, but i think the home advantage would play a better role in Chelsea winning this match.
 Both clubs didn't really have a good performance last season especially Chelsea who finished no where close to the top 6 so I think they'll both want to have a better season making both teams to be careful not to concede a goal therefore I feel it's going to be a draw match.

Real Madrid had a great win at the start of their season against Atlético Club and Real Madrid fans were cheering the match. Madrid won 2-0 in their first match in La Liga, a truly remarkable first performance of the season. We have seen before that Real Madrid lost their friendly games badly with some teams which was disappointing for Real Madrid, how they will win at the beginning of the new season but they have improved their playing style in the beginning of the season. Real Madrid did plenty of attacking in the match though, with Rodrigo and Jude Bellingham both young players scoring goals to delight the Madrid fans. Real Madrid have taken their first win at the start of the season to top the points table and are second with 3 points.
first match that gave the first point with a decent score for Real Madrid. I watched the match when Rodrygo and Bellingham teamed up to try hard to score and succeeded in the first half although a few times in the second half Bilbao defense was a little stronger so Bellingham struggled a little to score more but anyway a bright start to the season for Madrid and hope will be consistent until the end of this summer.

next match Madrid will play against Almeria and this is very easy for Madrid because this is not a very strong team even though the match took place at home to Almeria but Im sure Bellingham and Rodrygo can score a lot in this match. betting on Madrid will be very profitable once.
I enjoy watching Jude Bellingham play in Madrid and he does it with ease like he's been playing for the team before and has proved that he's worth the amount spent on him, the understanding between Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham is very good for the club and would help each other in scoring goals for the team.
 
 I don't think Almeria would stand a chance against Madrid even though they're playing at home Madrid would win with multiple goal about 2.5 goals or more, if you notice in the pre-season Bellingham scored in most matches and I think he's brought that form to the new season therfore I think he might get a goal or an assist in the match against Almeria.
