Both are equally risky, but gambling is riskier because we can feel the pleasure of gambling, making us forget to control our gambling. And in the end, we only know that it turns out that we have lost all the money with nothing left. The risk of future trading is also the risk of making our money disappear, especially if we don't use the stop loss feature and choose Cross mode, which will use all of our balance to trade. But if you use Isolated mode, you will not lose all the money.
That is very clear and simple, all fields will have their own risks, and the two fields referred to here are gambling and trading in my opinion both have a very similar risk impact where psychological and mental will be the main targets that someone can feel. As for gambling, I agree with you that the level of risk in it is very high if you are too excessive in it. The self-control factor is very important in both areas, but there is indeed a slight difference in that the self-control factor in trading as you mentioned, requires one to have risk management, including stopping loss, take profit, maintaining psychological calm and other management to prevent us from what is called MC. Furthermore, in gambling, there is no risk management as I mentioned above, but from a psychological point of view, it is still very much needed here, where control in gambling is only needed when you experience defeat.
Agree that both are risky but I still think luck gambling results cannot be controlled but futures trading to an extent can be controlled. If you do the proper research and analyze the data you can predict the outcome. It is somewhat like sports betting, although the outcome will be always in your favour is not guaranteed. Whereas luck gambling is completely controlled by the house.
Between gambling and future trading I can say that future trading is more risky. In fact, I am speaking from my own perceptive and that is on Sports Betting and not any other type of gambling. What happens in both future trading and Sports Betting prediction is that you must have knowledge of the subject matter.

In terms of future trading, predicting the movement of the coin requires the knowledge of the charts but in Sports Betting good knowledge of the league and the particular teams that are playing including the availability of players will give you a clear hint of who to win the match but it is the choice of odds and the confusion set by bookmakers that makes people lose money.

I never doubt the quality of Kyle Walker, but I don't think Bayern Munich will sign him. If they transfer, it would be a good challenge for Walker, of course. I think he will go to Saudi Arabia to earn money because a 33-year-old football player will want to earn serious money in his last days.
At that age it's time to think about money over career and I think that's also a very natural thing for him, but if there is still an option for a better team in a more popular league I don't think Kyle Walker would be wrong to go there either. But in this case I agree more that Kyle Walker wants to consider more money than continuing his career which will eventually be released by the team that signed him at that age.

Anyway, Kyle Walker has already get many titles with Manchester City so indeed, it is quite reasonable that Kyle Walker might prefer to earn more money with playing in the Saudi Professional League. After all, even if for example Kyle Walker left and joined Bayern Munich as well, in fact Bayern Munich basically only has dominance in the Bundesliga but not the Champions League. Thus, choosing to play until his contract expires at least for one more season at Manchester City and then leave to playing in the Saudi Professional League, at least i think it will still be a reasonable choice and still feasible for Kyle Walker who is approaching retirement.
Walker has done so much in the world of football. He played many matches and won many trophies if not all. He has been consistent in playing especially in speed and recovery. His physical fitness always put him ahead of his opponents but there is something we need to consider and that is age. Kyle Walker is not growing younger anymore so I think it is the right time he began to look for more money and where to play with little or no pressure.

If people want to play gambling in peace, they really have to be able to choose a trusted casino and even though the casino asks you to do KYC, you don't need to worry because the casino is trusted. For now, the gambling business has become bigger and is developing rapidly, especially for crypto casinos, which have gained popularity since the pandemic yesterday. People who cannot leave their homes are starting to use online casinos, both fiat and crypto but many gamblers are also switching to crypto casinos.


There is something about completing kyc in online platforms. Many people do not even attempt to complete kyc for reasons best known to them. Maybe this set of people are over private that they would want to live their privacy life to 100%
But I want to counter the notion that your kyc on reputable gambling sites is safe

Well, if you have completed KYC with any company no matter how reputable they are, your data is no longer safe. They themselves may not use it for any purpose without your consent. But in the case of hack or any other thing your data is exposed.

If we go down that road again, then yes, but most of those gamblers that pay for games obviously fail to realise that in gambling, they can't make a sure win, so why risk buying a game and still risk losing? because In the gambling industry, the rate of winning a game is always minimal compared to losses. Although there are really some things that some newbie gamblers don't know yet before starting to gamble, they may still get to know them.
Apart from the chance of winning the game in gambling being minimal, I believe most of the gamblers that pay for games which someone told them he/she has the right strategy for winning the game are still naive because it's analytical that no one will have such a strategy that could make them a millionaire overnight and decide to sell it for little money or ridiculous percentage the gambler will pay them.
It's really weird and funny when you put it that way, l mean you hold the keys to making much money and you now decide to sell it for a very common where as you could make millions yourself with same service you are actually rendering. Well this is the major reason I don't like following all those crazy posers that tend to feel that they can provide someone with a specific odds that is guaranteed 90% of winning.
I have seen many of such groups of sports bet prediction. They do not operate as many of us are saying in this thread.
If you see any of such groups that guarantees you 90% to 100% win, you should understand that they are not serious and they could be a scam group. Because they are not hundred percent sure of their prediction, that is why they cannot use it all alone. This could be a group of 3 and above who are experts in some leagues and they make collective prediction and analyse it individually and holistically and then comes out with a reasonable prediction which could have up to 60 to 70% winning probability.

I can assume that Roma reasonably assumed that Dybala could get an offer from Saudi Arabia, in which case they would receive a ridiculous compensation of 12 million. I wonder how much they increased Dybal's salary to motivate him to extend the contract. With such a shortage of strikers in many clubs, the demand for even the "non-star" Dybala must have increased.
Dybala is very happy in roma. Chelsea has been trying to get him from as roma but dybala has rejected it. My guess if arabian club has zero chance to get him. Even chelsea was not able to signing him as a new player and i think that dybala will reject an offer from saudi without even try to consider it. Im feeling no doubt if dybala will not leave from the club. He will stay in as roma for another season under jose mourinho. As roma has a plan to increase his release clause in the new contract.
Paulo Dybala is a great player with intimidating football tricks that helps him blaze through defenders like they were never their and also has impressive scoring abilities but with his current age, that is not the kind of player that Chelsea needs at the moment.
The new Chelsea manager is doing well to build Chelsea back to a very strong English Premier League club once again and must continue to do that with young players below the age of 30. Dybala is doing well for AS Roma and should be left do continue his work there unless the Saudi clubs comes knocking with their huge financial packages

~~~

Barcelona will keep pushing till they get the best results. The club advances in every round except the UEFA Champions League, which is their subsequent priority. Xavi Hernandez is the best thing that has happened to the blaugrana in recent years. The club was an utter shambles left by Ronald Koeman, who brought streak losses to the team, and they had no single hope of survival, instead pushing and battling to win a game. That didn't happen until the president, Joan Laporta, fired him and named Xavi Hernandez as a prospective replacement. Since then, everything at Camp Nou has improved.
You know a lot about Barcelona's situation with previous coaches, so of course you can really compare him to Xavi. Since Xavi signed a contract with Barcelona, ​​then from that moment I started to believe he could bring Barcelona to a different level. He is a former player who has Barcelona DNA and understands the philosophy of the game, but even if he needs time to adjust he will surely find success with Barcelona.

Next season Xavi really hopes Barcelona can triumph in the Champions League. That is the target that Barcelona hopes for the most, but with the current composition of players, I believe that Barcelona will still have difficulty reaching the final. It took 2-3 seasons for Barcelona to make their young players very experienced and have a winning mentality, but not underestimate their speed of development.
Despite their limited resources in signing high quality players since he took the managerial position at Barcelona, Xavi Hernandez has done well to improve the club's performance over the years and doesn't show any sign of slowing down their improvement anytime soon.
The winning mentality he's inculcated into the young lads at Barcelona is a clear representation of the positive effects of having him as their manager. They might not win the UEFA Champions League competition next season but with their growth rate, they might be winning it in the next few seasons

Mbappe is one of the best. I can agree with that statement. But we need to see whether the move from Al Hilal is serious or not. They are offering him $332 million per year as per news reports and Mbappé is yet to sign the contract renewal with Paris Saint Germain. However, it looks like Mbappé will refuse the offer and will become a free-agent. My guess is that Mbappé will refuse to travel to Saudi Arabia, and will instead join Real Madrid. Back in 2022, he had expressed his interest in joining the Spanish club. At this point, he is not thinking about the money.
Mbappe is faced with a difficult choice at the moment and if he doesn't accept an offer from Saudi Arabia then Mbappe should sign a multi-year contract extension for PSG in a new clause if I'm not mistaken. PSG took advantage of this opportunity so that Mbappe would not go on a free transfer next season and conditions like this are indeed very complicated because Mbappe does not plan to play in the Saudi Arabian league, especially in the previous transfer market, Mbappe played Real Madrid and chose to extend his contract with PSG.

Several Real Madrid players also rejected Mbappe's arrival to the team and at this time Real Madrid would not be able to bring Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu with such a large contract price so delays could happen again. Especially in the previous transfer market, Mbappe played Real Madrid, who had prepared everything, but Mbappe chose to extend his contract with PSG.

I hate to say this but, Kylian Mbappe will be missed if he leaves for Saudi Arabia. A youngin and he controls the market, it's exciting to see. I think since no European side can match his demands personally of from Paris Saint Germans, it'll be best if he leaves completely, stay a year and make move to the desired club next season.

Why would Real Madrid players do such? I don't think that's correct. They have no business with the Management signing a player it's either they get along with no the player or leave the club entirely for good   Kylian Mbappe should have accepted Real Madrid last season, if he did all of these wouldn't have happened. But then, mistakes have been made its high time he moves on and stops second guessing himself for the way forward.
In as much as many footballers now play football for the financial package that comes with it rather than the passion for the beautiful game unlike how it used to be in the past, I don't think a young football superstar with such great football potentials like Kylian Mbappe will agree to leave European football now to join the Saudi Arabian League just because of the fact that they offered him the most lucrative football deal in history.
Mbappe I'm sure knows that no matter how hard the Saudi League tries to buy quality football with money, it can never equal European football in the next 5 years. Unless he wants to be remembered by the mouthwatering wages he got from football than the trophies and accolades he won, Kylian Mbappe has no business with the Saudi League at this time of his career

Manchester United has decide to raises Scott McTominay price tag this because if there is a team who want him they should be pay not less than 40 millions and actually West Ham has showing their interest to McTominay this because they still look for the replacement of Declan Rice and their manager David Moyes feel McTominay is suitable to be the replacement of Rice besides that Moyes also confirmed he really likes the style of play of McTominay but til now West Ham haven't bid yet for this player
Actually Ten Hag really likes McTominay so this option is still not certain because possibly Manchester United still needed McTominay service for next season but probably if there is a club who dare to pay with high price then Manchester United will considering to release McTominay and besides this rumour Manchester United also linked to Fiorentina player Sofyan Amrabat

Precisely the Erik Ten Hag itself did not include Scott McTominay in its long-term plans. Quoted from the media goal coach ten Hag wants to immediately release McTominay along with Jadon Sancho, and Harry Maguire. I've said about this some time ago
With the €116 million that West Ham acquire from the sale of Declan Rice, they could have bought McTominay without a hitch but was it worth it? because basically McTominay has not shown positive progress in the last two seasons with Manchester United and 40 million as you say is not a small value.
Manchester United must know that players like Scott McTominay's value has really dropped from what it used to be because of his performance in the last two seasons and bring down their asking price for the Scottish player if they really want to get rid of him from their squad.
McTominay is a good defensive midfielder but I don't think his current price tag should be above 20 million pounds unless it's one of the Saudi Arabian clubs that wants to sign him

If Mbappe leaves PSG, the attacking part of PSG team will be very weak. PSG's main objective is to do something extraordinary in the Champions League, so they are trying hard to keep Mbappe in the team.
It's too early to judge whether or not PSG's attack line is weak at the moment because in general PSG are still trying to get some players for the line they need. Besides, next season hasn't started yet, so it wouldn't be so accurate if I had to judge it now, even when Mbappe was around, PSG couldn't do much in the Champions League last season, except for only Ligue 1, where PSG was still the strongest to win. So let's see how PSG will fare next season.
I don't think that the attacking line of Paris Saint Germaine is anywhere close the word "weak" even if Kylian Mbappe leaves at the club this summer transfer window and that's because of the quality players in the squad.
An football attacking line that consists of Neymar, Mauro Icardi and the just signed Marco Asensio shouldn't be tagged "weak" in any way because so attacking trio is capable of destroying any club defense on their day. PSG without Mbappe might not be as good as they're used to but they'll certainly be competitive enough to even win the UEFA Champions League trophy

I see that Arsenal is solving this problem, now it seems that Arsenal is making several transfers that allow for an equal quality between the main and reserve players so that if there is a player rotation it will not have a significant effect on the team's performance.
I think it's very likely that Arsenal will do well in the Champions League next season, the quality of this team is increasing now and they deserve to be reckoned with.
Arsenal really shouldn't be underestimated next season, especially in the Champions League because Arsenal themselves are also very aware that they still have to improve on existing deficiencies to be able to wade through an even greater next season. And not only in the Champions League, Arsenal must be taken into account, but also in the Premier League must also be considered from the start of the season, because Arsenal will try to be consistent from the start of the season to fight for the title next season.
It'll be huge disadvantage to any club that'll underestimate a club like Arsenal come next season because Arsenal might end up giving such club a thrashing of their life
Mikel Arteta has done exceptionally well in building the Arsenal team to a very strong side and as it stands, I think Arsenal is capable of beating any European club.
Coming so close to winning the English Premier League last season is enough reason for any European side that's facing Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League competition next season to be very careful and strategic against the North London club or face unwanted humiliation

If Bayern Munich has to pay too much money for just one player, maybe they will suffer a loss even though the player they are after is a player who is quite good and also very commensurate with the intelligence that exists in that player. But if the fee is high enough, of course any team will feel very overwhelmed to take him this season and in general Bayern Munich will not be too weak if they don't get Kane for their squad next season
Bayern Munich actually needs to sign Harry Kane if they really want to be a threat for any team especially in the champions league. If they don’t sign Harry Kane this summer or any striker at all i think they would be weak, they have a number of wingers but they lack a striker a player that will score the goals for them just as Lewandowski used to do for them. Kane is the perfect replacement but if they feel he is too expensive then they should go for another option that will be within the team’s budget else they will have a similar season just as last season.
To do well in the Champions League, of course, they need a good quality striker in their club, if Harry Kane is a good quality striker, then the matter will be better, but the biggest challenge for them at the moment is to get Harry Kane to contract with their club. They have not been successful in signing Harry Kane to their club so far due to financial considerations. Because Bayan Munich thinks that the market value that Harry Kane has set is high, as a result of which no positive news has come from Bayan Munich or Tottenham about the contract with Harry Kane. If we want to do well in the Champions League next season, we definitely need a quality striker in the team, in this case, they may not have any better options than Harry Kane, so they have to try their best to get Harry Kane into their team.
Talking about spending much on a player and the negative effects it does bring to a team, it all depends on the kind of player that a club is going for. I don't think the amount of money that's been demanded Tottenham Hotspur is very much expensive when compared to the value that Harry Kane will bring to Bayern Munich if he's finally signed.
This is a player that guarantees you a 20+ goals every season and not just scoring goals he also good in dropping deep and helping the his team. Harry Kane is that complete striker that Bayern Munich needs to become very competitive again in Europe and they must do anything within their power and sign him if they don't want the kind of humiliation they suffered in the hands of Manchester City last season

Testing new players as well old ones too and watching, assessing their capabilities while playing all the while formulating new strategies too. Seeing the performance put up by Arsenal last season, it wouldn’t be wise to underestimate them but Barcelona is no push over either.
Both clubs have their tradition to use young players from their own academies. Quality of young players provided by their academies are not stable and they have to use more old or more young players in some seasons but as all other clubs, finding good combinations between young and old players is important.

If young and old players can support each other, performance of a club would be good. A good coach is able to use players and get that balance in the squad.

Quote
Both teams are top teams in their respective leagues and it would be interesting to see who would come out on top.
On the matter of if Gundogan would be fielded in the game, I’m also curious. Gotten so used to seeing him in a Man City jersey.
They are rising in the last two seasons and are reclaiming their positions in domestic leagues. In Champions League, both Barcelona and Arsenal have yet belonged to top and they still have to improve many things.
Right from the days of Arsene Wenger up to this very moment, Arsenal is the only English Premier League club that many thinks they share much similarities with Barcelona especially their style of play.
Arsenal's performance last season has shown that they've significantly improved which is a good news for the North London club. Against Barcelona, Arsenal has the capability to give them a good run for their money but I think the Spanish club has a better chance of winning

Quote from: rendravolt
Some time ago there were rumors that Kyle Walker would leave Manchester City and join Bayern Munich. But Pep Guardiola has stated that he hopes Kyle Walker can stay in Manchester City and we are even ready to fight to keep him so that no club can touch him. I think Pep Guardiola's actions were very appropriate to retain Kyle Walker and if we think his role is still very important in maintaining the defense of Manchester City.

Kyle Walker is a right-back with incredible pace and if he were to leave, who would replace him? even in the champions league against Vini, he was the one who managed to stop him and in the England national team he also managed to stop Mbappe at that time. So I think now Kyle Walker has more of a role to stop players at high speed because he is able to keep up with these players.

Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1683776160998596608

I don't think, Pep Guardiola will allow Kyle walker to leave the team in this summer, because he is among the Pilar that made Manchester city a strong team, which the Manchester city coach is aware of it through the concluded premier league competition last season, that is why the coach is doing everything possible to make him to enjoy the benefits of his performance by retain Kyle walker. If Kyle walker by mistake leave Manchester city, it will be difficult for Manchester city to get a potential defender like Kyle walker that will make the team function like the way they function to embraced many titles last season. If Kyle walker will still play for Manchester city this season, I believe Manchester city will still display well to remain champions through out the tournament.
In as much as Kyle Walker isn't consistently in the starting vi of Manchester City, there's no doubt about the fact that he's a very important member of the City squad. When City where to face Real Madrid in the semi finals of last season's UEFA Champions League competition, Pep Guardiola understood that there's no other Man City player that can deal with the pace of Madrid's Vinicius Jnr than Walker and the England international did exceptionally well to silent the Brazilian in the second leg of that tie at the Etihad.
City has already lost some members of last season treble winning squad leave and wouldn't afford to let me leave the club again

I think Barcelona still should make two transfers to specific areas. These areas are defensive midfield and centre-forward. Because in the defensive midfield there is still only Oriol Romeu. Of course players like de Jong and Kessie can also play there. However their main positions are central midfield so it is better to use them there.

For the other position there is only Lewandowski there. Barcelona don't need to spend so much money for bringing a striker. They can even loan someone who can be useful in Lewandowski's absence. Signing a backup striker should be even the priority for them.
Barcelona's current financial incapabilities has been the major reason why they've not been very active in the transfer market like they used to do in the past which might have an effect on the teams performance when the new season kicks off.
The club needs to sign few more players to their side especially getting another striker that'll serve as a back up to Robert Lewandowski in case of when injury, suspension or fatigue sets in

I don't see Mbappe heading to the Saudi league no matter the amount they splash at him, even if they make him the highest signing or highest paid in the world. The player needs something more than money at this point in time in his career, trophies he haven't won before, winning the Ballon dor is also a target for him. He has so much to offer to European football and anything that'll make him move to Saudi Arabia league that's the end for him and his dream. I just wish something concrete would happen before the end of this week.
If i am not mistaken Mbappe price tag which officially announced by PSG is 150 millions which mean to those who want to buy him the price shouldn't be less than that and fantastic bid from Arabian club which is bid him for 300 millions indeed was very insane and i am sure PSG will be tempting to sell Mbappe with that price but Mbappe has a contract until 2024 so although they want to sell him but all decisions are in Mbappe's own hands that they can't force it if Mbappe doesn't want to be sold and recently Mbappe have already giving his respond to this rumour that he will refuse this offer and decided to spend the rest of his contract with PSG Mbappe even doesn't care if this decision will see him benched for the full season
The fact that Paris Saint Germaine has informed Kylian Mbappe of their decision to sell him this summer transfer window instead of allowing him play in his last season with club and leave for free afterwards doesn't mean that PSG has the final say on the player's future.
The amount that's been offered by the Saudi Arabian club is tempting to not just PSG but also Mbappe but I strongly believe that the the young superstar wouldn't leave Europe now for the Saudi League. Kylian Mbappe is likely to leave PSG this summer but surely not for a Saudi club
4156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 24, 2023, 10:55:31 PM
Apparently, PSG has accepted the 300 million deal - which was expected of course.

Not a surprise since PSG had no option but to accept. Right now Al-Hilal is the only club who is offering PSG something of value from the possible departure of Mbappe. 300million is a lot and I don't think any club is ballsy enough to match that
The player still has a big decision in this even if PSG cannot refuse this deal. It is really a lot of money. There is talk that Mbappe prefers to sit out the whole season on PSG's bench than move to Saudi Arabia to play in their league. There are a lot of things to consider for Mbappe. He needs to be actively involved in games so he can be fit for the upcoming National competition with France in 2024. If he stays on the bench in PSG, he may struggle with fitness when the competition begins.
Mbappe seems to be in trouble! Should he warm up on the bench at PSG or spend his money in Saudi Arabia? Who wouldnt want that problem? However, there's more to it. Playing for PSG and sitting on the bench may not help you prepare for the 2024 National competition. He may not want to move to Saudi Arabia to play their game.

Being able to pick between PSG's bench and Saudi Arabia's field, each with its own problems and opportunities, makes you pleased. We can only wait. Relax, eat, and watch!
Whichever decision that Kylian Mbappe will take concerning his future with the Paris Saint Germaine, he'll certainly not make the right decision of he decides to join the Saudi Arabian League at this very young age of his career.
We know that modern day footballers plays for what they stand to gain financially than for the love of the game but a player with great football potentials must think beyond the financial package of the Saudi offers and know that playing in Europe is far better than the riches of Saudi Arabian Football

What a shit an a non sense it was that offer to Mbappe, i really dislike this kind of _"new" football, so much money involved without reason, only greed and business, i know football its a busines since 1990 but come on, this its so much.

Its gonna flood and cause a mass inflation on football.
The Saudi Arabian League organisers already knows that quality football of the modern day depends on how much clubs are willing to offer to big players and that's why they're very ready to financially buy their way in to becoming one of the best leagues in the world right now.
Days are gone when footballers plays for the love of the beautiful game of football rather they now play for the love of how much is placed on the table and that's not gonna change anytime soon

The fact that Ligue 1 was dethroned looks funny to me because not like eredevise has a team like PSG to be fair, and the fact that one team could keep them higher may sound like a bad one but that is the reality I believe that they are doing fine and should be considering this as an option.

I think Feyenoord took advantage of a situation, Ajax had a great team and a manager that allowed them to be better than anyone else, and in a span of 2 seasons they lost both their good players and also their manager at the same time, which made them bad and not like Ajax is the type of club that would spend all that money to get new stars, they are spending it on young guys to grow and they will once again be better eventually.
Ajax were known to be the dominant club in the Dutch League over the years but Feyenoord has recently shown that the Dutch League isn't a one club show and that's a good advertisement of the league to the rest of the world.
Ajax main problem is how to keep their best players at the club for a longer time because they're always priced away from them by the big European heavyweights who are more financially capacitated than Ajax. Many European clubs are currently offering great deals to sign Kudus away from the club this summer

The champions league next season is filled up with new teams especially from the English side,we have Necastle and Arsenal who will be involved this time,and they will looking forward to atleast getting to either quater final or semi finals.As for Newcastle,they really did well in the premier league and would want to replicate that same form in the champions league.I really admire the way they play,with aggression,energy and phisicality.If they play just the way they play in the premier league,teams from other league will find it difficult to defeat them,and they will really do well.But they still need to add some quality signings to their team,they might have a good squad now,but they need some  players that will re-energise them and improve their squad depth as well.And as for Arsenal,i just think they are certainly going to do well in the champions league next season.
For the first time in some couple of years English Premier League wouldn't be represented in the UEFA Champions League competition by the either of Chelsea or Liverpool rather they'll have another representatives including Arsenal and Newcastle who deservedly deserve their place in the competition.
The change of teams to represent the English Premier League isn't a big issue but more importantly is wether the two new clubs would deliver quality representation by reaching at least the quarter finals of the competition

The English Premier League would be extremely competitive, with only the most outstanding team winning the championship. Gamblers have already begun to formulate their betting strategy and forecasts for the next season. A competitive season for everyone; we know which clubs will rebound and who will continue to have dismal records. Chelsea and Liverpool were in dreadful form last season, but they will undoubtedly improve this season. Manchester City and Arsenal, perhaps I can't guarantee that the Gunners are still in condition following their pre-season loss to Manchester United, Mikel Arteta has a lot of work to do for his team.
I'm still quite hesitant, because the pre-season preparation matches don't give much of a clear picture of the quality of the team's future. There will be many surprises that we can't see yet, but I believe the big five teams in the EPL will try hard to compete to be number 1. They have that capacity for now. Many good transfers were made to strengthen the state of the team. Moreover, the transfer season is still happening, maybe there will be many great players coming.
To me, most of the preseason games are glorified training matches and that's because most of these club players doesn't bring out the best from them when playing these preseason matches because the games aren't important to their respective clubs and the goals scored in the preseason games doesn't get added to a footballers record.
That being said,  most of the English Premier League clubs has shown that they'll do extremely well when the new premier league season kicks in August
