Sadio Mane was not a regular scorer. But he would help stabilize the team. Sadio Mane helps strengthen the bond between the midfield and forward players. Hence Sadio Mane's sudden departure from the team, adversely affected Liverpool's performance. The coach should have found a suitable replacement for Mane and then sold Mane. But the coach didn't do it. Second, Liverpool signed Nunez as a replacement for Sadio Mane. Nunez and Sadio Mane play completely different styles. Liverpool's poor performance is due to a few small mistakes.
When Liverpool allowed Mané to depart the team, they made serious errors. The board would simply have boosted his pay and presented him with a significant contract offer, which he would not reject. Sadio Mané has long provided good service to the squad in all facets, both during league games and the Champions League, where he excelled. He has saved the team from severe defeat several times. These players are uncommon in the elite league, thus when one is identified, it should be retained in a team that is safe and reserved.
Even though there are still many other star players in the Liverpool squad, Mane departure has greatly affected Liverpool appearance. Liverpool have made a big mistake in their transfer policy, the arrival of Nunez at a fantastic price cannot be an ideal replacement for Mane.
Ahead of the match vs Real Madrid starting, Klopp has not found the best strategy to improve Liverpool's performance, now Liverpool is under pressure due to the poor results that continue to be achieved and will find it difficult to face big teams like Real Madrid.
Liverpool has degenerated so much this season, let's hope that they can do something right next season, because, to me, this season is over for them. The setback for them is too much to the point that the names that were been hailed are now been booed so fast. And I warned about that time when Klopp placed too much relevance on Salah over Mane in treating their pay rise demands.

Salah was given the relevance which made Mane opt out of the squad. Many might not think towards that angle, but I did.

If so, maybe this quote can be a reminder for us:

"If you find it hard to leave gambling, maybe you are already experiencing gambling addiction, leave immediately before it's too late."
And it's too late until someone realizes that he or she is already addicted to gambling. Yeah, this is a good quote to remind everyone of us that we have to control ourselves or else, we're too late in realizing that we're no longer the old us.

This website is composed of many gambling quotes and it includes the person who said it, pay a visit if you want.

https://www.therandomvibez.com/gambling-quotes-and-sayings-for-all-gamblers/
Addiction or not, it's good that we are wise and always conscious of what we do, anything we do too much is bad, and we should always do everything in moderation. I usually say that all we need is to be sensitive, I've tasted gambling addiction before, and it doesn't just infest people, it takes time. But the problem is that when many realise it, they don't fight it immediately, they procrastinate until it becomes something else in their brain.

In my case, I was addicted to the lotto in 2013, but immediately after realizing it, I stopped, and believe me, the last time I bet again was two weeks ago. This marks about a decade after saying goodbye to such kind of betting. Who knows, it might be in another decade before I bet another. That's how to fight it. And if it's the ones that worth it, you might just take a month's break, and you will be fine.

the importance of Ronaldo can be seen in the forum too - the whole forum is full comments on Ronaldo only.
we don't talk about any other Saudi club - neither we speak about any player - but what we do is RONALDO _ RONALDO - RONALDO
Ronaldo is in our heart and mind.
haha, I also think so, why in this thread the majority only discuss cristiano ronaldo instead of discussing the competition in the saudi arabia league which is very competitive. it's really interesting to see the top 3 at the moment, all three (al nassr, al shabab, al ittihad) have the same points which is 34, like the mentality of the al ittihad squad is getting awakened after they managed to win the super cup.
You will have to excuse this thread if you are not comfortable with the majority discussing CR7. Mind you, have you ever thought of it why this thread was created in the first place, do you think people appreciate the Saudi professional league that much? It's of course because of CR7, the news of him moving to Sauid made it happen.

So, you have to relax and give people time to adjust to this because the country's league is new to the majority, they can't know their players and key people in the administration of the league at once. The majorly come to discuss here because of the name they know, which is C. Ronaldo.

You have to be careful to avoid being scammed. Just first check with BC.GAME support page or try to log in to your account directly from your webpage before you act. I would have provided you with more details if you provided more information. Be it as it may, it's good that you are careful of antics on the internet, if it's just a direct email, it might not be from the company. I'd received lots of it, particularly the ones pretending to be from Coinbase, I always ignore them as the sender's email is not always that of Coinbase itself.

4765  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US casinos set new record of revenue on 2022 on: February 06, 2023, 10:03:38 AM
Have you noticed this as well where you live? Are cryptocurrency casinos experimenting the same kind of boom as fiat casinos?
It's not a surprise that casinos are improving in earnings, people are getting bored these days as the adult population is increasing, and they are using the casino to pass time. This is an eye-opener to people that still want to channel their money somewhere, casino investment is still poorly tapped in many countries, they could start little and grow big with time.

As for your question, have never seen a crypto casino in my area. Nevertheless, the area we live in might not be a determinant here because many people living in a country are running offshore crypto casinos. I realized that crypto casinos are mainly online than offline which are more of an offshore establishment.

I'm so surprised by the accusation of the OP, electum will never do that, you have full access and control of your crypto (noncustodial). This is also an open source which everyone is talking well about. Maybe the OP is scammed already by going for the cloned site, and that would be so disastrous in that sense.

Never deposit extra to get back your money, they will scam you more. The correct site is https://electrum.org, and do not follow the review sites you don't trust or the sponsored links when you search on online engines, be advised.
4767  Economy / Economics / Re: Given the declining trend of inflation, will FED freeze the interest rates ? on: February 05, 2023, 05:21:57 PM
FED was actually aggressive last year in hiking the Fed Funds Rate, which was in line with the plan for the 2022 fiscal year in the face of inflation. It's however too early to judge a halt now as what you called a decrease in inflation is not actually a decrease judging by where it started in recent years, it's just a break, and the inflation could strike again unannounced any moment. FOMC needs to study the situation carefully and give it time before making decisions this year.



Nonetheless, the plan for this year is last dated till February, and I guess the plan will be revisited monthly rather than the situation of last year that was previously known. The interest rate was last increased on Wednesday from 4.50% to 4.75% despite some months of decrease in inflation as seen by the above graph.

More studies are still needed, and who knows if the January inflation report would be so surprising?

It was difficult for me to choose any of your stated strategies as there is no best strategy anywhere, it's what you personally use that works for you at best that you should be using. Based on experience, what you believe is the best might not be agreeably best for others, so it's always personal. However, it was difficult to choose between price action and Elliot wave, they are good, and more are to be mentioned like Fibonacci and trendline trading, they are all good in my experience.

And if a trader does better, they will have to combine at least two strategies together for better results.
4769  Economy / Economics / Re: SOFT LANDING LIE on: February 05, 2023, 08:18:44 AM
No one is making anyone "buy the top and sell the bottom," this conclusion is anti-people and unprofessional. I've been in the world of financial market trading and investment for a while now, and, if there is a country that is top-notch in response to situations and in defence of their country and citizen, and also the world at large, I would say the US is number one.

I'm not a Yankee and I don't know the resentment you have toward the nation, but this article is not necessary, FED will always act based on what is at hand, they might even promise or envisaged what is not possible, only time tells as they are not perfect. And with reality, they are acting decisively and professionally in my understanding of economics.

Now, back to your conclusion, no one is forcing you to act on your decisions, you have to know what you are doing and act rightly based on the resources at your disposal.

Knowledge is power, seek it more to act rightly. And be sure that in either a bad or good economy or even a tricky circumstance, a good decision could still be made if you know what you are doing.

Is 0.1BTC a lot and enough for long-term holding? I calculate my extra income that I use for DCA and I feel like this is the range of BTC I will end up owning on the long run, anything more will put me in a very tight position or maybe I need to upgrade my side job to earn more for investing into Bitcoin. What do you feel about this? 0.1 BTC good enough or not.
After all, you are making efforts, and be aware that no investment is too small just as no investment is too much. You have to "cut your cloth according to your cloth," just be sure that your investment does not affect your convenience, it's not worth it in that sense.

As for adding more income to what you presently earn, it's up to you, but judging by the size of what you could afford for investment in the long term, it shows that you are not doing well financially.

This is naturally a challenge for you even without the involvement of any investment.
4771  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 05, 2023, 07:46:13 AM
With the reduced number of players, Sussuolo took advantage of the opportunity to score goals and carried out defensive formations until the end of the match. Atalanta were unable to chase goals and finally this match was won by Sassuolo, this was a nightmare for Atalanta and must be an important lesson to keep keep the game from being easily provoked by emotions so that you don't get a red card and have to play with a team that doesn't match the number.
Chaotic match for Atalanta today. Apart from losing points they also lost 2 of their players which was obviously very detrimental. The superior number of Sasuolo players really took advantage of this and of course even though I hoped for more goals, one goal was still enough for them to bring 3 points in this match.
Atalanta need every point to compete with other teams for the top 4, there is no reason for players to even risk getting suspended from the match with a red card, I don't understand why would players do that even when they are still 0-0 and are not losing the match, red cards played a role to determine the winner, and Sassuolo managed to beat another big team.
Atalanta has progressed this season but more is to be done, and they can't finish more than the top 5 based on my analysis. And I must say that am only neutral about what happened to Joakim Maehle yesterday, the harsh punishment could still be avoided by both him and the ref, it's judgemental in my thought and anyone could have done it better.

Also, I see no desperation in that other than he's doing his job, and that was what he could resolve at that moment, though seems unnecessary to many.
4772  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: February 05, 2023, 07:29:18 AM
Union Berlin topping the German bundles liga it's a good and interesting one, I will personally love to see the Bayern Munich dominance in the bundles liga come to an end, it's been ten straight seasons Bayern Munich have won the league straight and it's making the league look like it it's not competitive, its not good for German football as we know them to be one country with great football stars and history.
Dortmund won there match too, but Bayern play tomorrow and the outcome of that match will determine if Union Berlin stay too or not.
You surprised me with your statement, why would you want the downfall of a club, particularly the deserving one? Well, this might not happen this season, Bayern Munich relaxes though with too many draws this season, but they are not sleeping. The Union Berlin has done brilliantly this season as well and they equally deserve the trophy, and so are Dortmund and RB Leipzig.

Let the drama continues, we can't conclude that Barern will not lift the trophy yet as all the four clubs in the top four spots are keenly contesting right now.

I know how you feel, it hurt if people disappoint you with their unexpected attitude, especially when you believed you share the same views with them. Well, I will like to put it straight to you that many are here not because they want to gain knowledge or add value to Bitcoin, they are here for the money, and it's not so cool. That could only explain what you experienced with those people. Still, it should still not stop you from propagating Bitcoin in your own little way.

Like myself, I've been coaching some people about BTT and BTC, only that I am not such that broadcast it here. You can do it also, it does not necessarily mean it must be done in groups.

4774  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 04, 2023, 01:47:09 PM
The first round match was over the Everton vs Arsenal match, unexpectedly Everton, who was not the seed, actually played very well so he could keep up with Arsenal in this first half.
This is Everton's first match with their new coach, and it is clear that the changes that have occurred with their game scheme are much better between attack and defense.
if Everton can maintain a good game like in this first half then it is very likely that Everton will be able to get points in this match.
Although Arsenal has reached a very good and stable point on the EPL table, the way Everton is holding them tightly is a good one which I did not expect. Hope Everton will not dash the hope of an easy 3 points for Arsenal since the match of 60 minutes seems would end in a goalless draw. I will not conclude so soon, but Everton which is at the 19th spot on the EPL table is brilliant today, their defence is good, and it will definitely take Arsenal extra efforts to penetrate.

The OP can't be trusted, the only two posts made in his account are dedicated to "Nebeus" which has a hidden undertone in my who suspicion. The company was deliberately advertised stylishly by him, so extreme caution is advised in dealing with such a company. Aside from that, I quickly run a background check on the company, more negative reviews than positive ones ruled their services, which makes it not advisable to deal with.

And as you know, custodial companies could be funny, it's not worth it. I simply don't know why anyone cannot use crypto casinos and sportsbooks directly for their transactions.
4776  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's on! 2024 US Presidential Election Biden+Harris Vs Trump Bitcoin betting.... on: February 04, 2023, 08:48:24 AM
What this shows to me is that the US is extremely divided.

It's almost like there are two countries inside one, and getting more extreme views every year.

This wasn't like this 10 or 20 years ago.

Anyway, it's really tight, so good luck to whoever wins!
I almost make mistake myself as you might not know that the OP reads January 2021, and I believe that it's too early to know who will contest now. First God owns our lives, secondly, the primaries are still far ahead, and anything can change at the dead moment. Who knows if the court cases of Trump would bar him from contesting as he and his company/foundation were found guilty of some. What about the misuse of office while he was there?

Nonetheless, the presidential election will be taking more shape about the end of this year against 2024, and a viable prediction will be advised then. I believe that inflation, a high-interest rate, and a weak tone against China among others will work to the disadvantage of Biden.
4777  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The best time to buy bitcoin. on: February 04, 2023, 08:32:22 AM
Thanks for this, your view is appreciated. But I don't totally agree with you as correlating NASDAQ and Bitcoin is not professional in my view. I've seen a lot of people mentioning this correlation, but they do not always happen. It's true that situations make them move in the same way at times, but check their charts, the curves are not always the same, so I will avoid using one to invest in the others.

That said, I like the idea of DCAing, but now, I will have almost my investment in bitcoin, and the trick is for me to locate the bottom and buy it, then move it to USDT when a bearish trend is established (for holding).

This is solely being done with the help of technical analysis, and it has been so productive for me since last year that I got fully involved in BTC.
4778  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Act local and think global on: February 04, 2023, 07:42:15 AM
What Bitcoin has achieved in the last decade is beyond imagination as it was a totally strange means of payment and investment, yet it beat many prominent ideas just like that. However, it needs more adoption, but this will not happen overnight. You will hardly see anyone in an urban area that has not heard of Bitcoin now, only that some have not adopted it due to one reason or the other, while the government of some countries are not helping out.

Notwithstanding, Bitcoin will always prevail and more time is needed for many countries to reconsider, and this will help in more adoption. Also, we have to do our homework if we are truly helping the situation as BTC enthusiasts.

I have actually started mine already as I teach people about the coin for free.

4780  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What could have Satoshi faced if he made himself known from the beginning on: February 03, 2023, 05:46:58 PM
He might be a target of all scammers all over the world, especially now that they are aware that bitcoin is very valuable and that Satoshi must have the highest amount of bitcoin hodlings.
The target by scammers is not even in my head and will not be an issue because the BTC would still be new then. No scammer would dare to steal such, and it's dangerous as it was highly traceable by the inventor since there was no much patronage then. Also, it has a low value at that time, so scammers will not look in his direction.

No one would expect that bitcoin will go this far and maybe Satoshi is not an exception. His only goal by then was just to have freedom from fiat currency that’s why he end up inventing bitcoin.
I don't think his goal is freedom from fiat because no one would be free from fiat, and if that is his goal, then the goal is not yet realized. I believe his goal is privacy and to reduce the dominance of fiat, not to curb it, and it's being actualized with low transaction fees and anonymity of transactions.

We have to admit that Bitcoin is unstoppable. Governments can't do anything about it even if they find who Satoshi really is.
Are you kidding me? You better don't think about it this way, thank goodness that Satoshi was wise enough in his plan. If the whole world government wants to disapprove of crypto today, it will just go to zero patronage immediately. They will block all access points and that ends it.

Now it's too late to stop bitcoin because it has become too big to stop. But if at that time the government catches him, then I think it will be easier for them, it will be a lot easier to stop bitcoin. And I don't think they'll kill him, that's a negative thought. He is a genius, so the government will use his brilliant mind to work for them rather than kill him because if he dies, bitcoin will still live and thrive. In short, no matter what they say, it's too late to stop bitcoin
No government will be after him anymore, and even if they dare to, am sure that world protests would erupt because of him. Bitcoin is not a threat, and other blockchains have evolved and no government is threatening them and their developers, so satoshi is not the bone of contention anymore. It might have been the issue initially, but technology has advanced beyond that.
