That is the current situation in the English Premier League where teams need to have consistency in achieving success. While Manchester City may currently be favored to retain the title due to the return of key players like De Bruyne and the potential addition of Haaland, the landscape of the league can shift rapidly as the season progresses. Liverpool's injury woes and Arsenal's inconsistency certainly present challenges for both teams, but in a league as competitive as the Premier League, anything can happen.
Of course the return of these players will definitely boost title hopes, i just knew its too soon to write Manchester City off because of the points lost during the absence of Haaland and De bruyne. I know it would have been a different story if Liverpool and Arsenal have been more consistent with their play by now they should have left Manchester City far behind but they failed to utilize the chance they had now Manchester City is back in business and they are very big threat with higher possibility of winning the league again.

The league cannot be easily predicted and this season we are already seeing more than two contenders for the title which have made it more interesting than before. I fully support Liverpool to win this time around because they have tried their best so far this season but there is still a long way to go and they need to be consistent with their performance until the end if the season.

Quote
The upcoming matches between the top teams will undoubtedly be crucial in determining the final outcome of the season, with each result potentially reshaping the title race. Consistency indeed plays a pivotal role in securing the EPL title, because maintaining high performance levels throughout the season is essential for success. It would be better for a new team to win the EPL title that reflects the desire for diversity and excitement within the league. That would show the passion and anticipation that football fans around the world experience.
The Match against Arsenal and Liverpool got Arsenal and Manchester City in the race again so the three teams needs to take their matches with each other very seriously if they don’t want to be left out of the race. Liverpool losing to Arsenal had made the gap smaller so Liverpool needs to buckle up and maintain their position.

Do you think it is convenient to buy bitcoin now according to your predictions? Or wait for its value to drop further?

Buying bitcoin should be your personal decision after properly evaluating people’s opinion and the strategy you want to adopt. Before investing in bitcoin there are a lot of things that needs to be considered to determine if it’s convenient to invest at a particular point. We all know that investing when the price is lower is the best time but no one is certain if the price will go lower than it is currently anytime soon, bitcoin is predicted to increase to a price higher than it’s ATH (all time high) and with the more time you waste bitcoin might keep increasing and you might miss out on the chance of buying low so in my opinion there is never a bad time when investing in bitcoin except when you are adopting the strategy of buying at every dip.

No matter the price you buy, bitcoin has the potential to increase in price so if you plan to hold for a long period then you have nothing to worry about, it will still rise again regardless of any fall experienced.

There are several strategies that an investor can adopt but the easiest strategy is DCA strategy which allows a person to invest little amount at regular intervals and accumulate bitcoin gradually, that way the price at which the investor buys wouldn’t matter much and there will be no huge loss incurred when using this strategy.

Saving from a young age is a good thing if you learn to save at a young age, you can do a lot of good things in the future.

Some people will tell you the future is not certain so they spend the money they have while you’re still alive because death can come around any moment and when a person is dead all his savings will be spent by other people. Whenever a person tells me this i just shake my head and ignore them because i feel they don’t have any plans. People who say the future is not certain have lived 2 more years like a flash and before you know 5years will pass by like play and they will achieve nothing because of their mentality. Saving helps to secure our future that’s why it’s better to start at a young age before, but nowadays young people prefer spending money on worldly things rather than saving to have a better future.

The Champions League football is always distinct from the domestic league football that each of the teams competing in it represents. Leipzig is not a weak team that can be easily defeated by Real Madrid, despite their reputation for having more Champions League experience. The team should be judged on the same level, and each team’s performance will determine their success rate in this Champions League game. Real Madrid has already been regarded as one of the best teams to reach the competition's finals, and they will not appear weak in this match, allowing Leipzig to prevail. We are all aware that Leipzig is the weaker team here to qualify but football takes us sometimes by surprise, I hope this one doesn’t.
There are levels to this champions league competition and Real Madrid is far from being on the same level with Leipzig. Leipzig can be on a level of their own but not to be compared to Real Madrid, especially not on this stage champions league knockout stage is where Real Madrid has been very dominant in this stage.

Leipzig can bring on a tough challenge but I don’t think it will be enough to eliminate Real Madrid in both legs, Real Madrid have been in good form this season winning matches back to back and there is no surprise that this match will bring, i know nothing of such can happen because it will be a shame on Madrid to be eliminated at this early stage.

Football can be very difficult to predict at times though but had it been this competition is not a two legged competition then it would be easier for Leipzig to pull off a surprising performance aging Real Madrid.

We think on the contrary, Chelsea is only focused on this competition because only here they have a chance of getting a trophy whereas in the Premier League they don't have any chance, we will see that Chelsea will continue to fight to get at least one trophy this season. Currently Chelsea is playing 2 tournaments, do you believe that Chelsea will win one of them? while, for the Premier League Chelsea could only finish in 8-10th position I'm not sure they can get into the top 5 or even a conference league is also impossible.

You seem to forget they have a final at hand and with this competition they have two hopes of winning a trophy this season. EFL cup final will be against Liverpool which the chances of winning are very slim considering how Liverpool trashed them few days back.

Chelsea performed well against Aston Villa and everyone was surprised how Chelsea was able to win at Villa park where it has been difficult for almost all teams to win a game this season. We don’t know what happened to Aston Villa last night but something must definitely be wrong to lose to Chelsea at home like that. They have been eliminated and now they would have to focus on the premier league so they don’t miss out on making the top 4 to qualify for the champions league next season.

Although there were many surprises in the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations, the final also brought together strong teams. between Nigeria and Ivory Coast.
But in the final, Nigeria will be more favored to win the match than ivory coast. in the current squad, Nigeria is stronger, many of its players are stars in big European clubs compared to ivory coast.
You are right, they have a very strong team and many players from the Nigerian squad are star players from strong European teams so they have the advantage to actually win in the final and also considering that they played against Ivory Coast in the group stage and won them 1-0 it will give them more confidence to play better against them in the final.

We can say all this in our mind but it wouldn’t mean Nigeria will win that day, it will depend on their performance and how highly spirited they play on Sunday. Ivory Coast would not want what happened in the group stage should happen again they will not want to lose to Nigeria again and also they would not want to disappoint their fans by losing in the final on their home soil after making their way to the final.

So far Nigeria have been unbeaten in the tournament and i hope they can end the tournament unbeaten to lift the trophy. As a Nigerian i hope they win in the final and bring home the trophy.

Nigeria vs South Africa
Ivory Coast vs Congo

I predict it’ll be a Nigeria vs Ivory Coast final. I think that’s what neutrals want to see, t’d be a really entertaining final.

Your predictions are on point and even based on odds your predicted team are favored to win. They are the favorites teams to win even based on performance in their previous matches but football sometimes get very difficult to predict especially in competitions like this.
If Nigeria and Ivory Coast eventually wins the final will be an entertaining one, so far the tournament have been really entertaining so i think Nigeria Vs Ivory Coast will be a befitting final.

Yes I have read osimhen has been declared fit to play against South Africa tomorrow and it will surely add some boost to the teams impetus to move forward. Perhaps the odd by bookies was influenced by his fitness because dropping 6 odd for South Africa is really a high odd, South Africa is not a push over in African football and I hope Nigerians are going to play with the seriousness that they have played with the previous matches especially with Cameroon and Angola.
It no more rumors, Osimhen have been pictured heading to the training ground to join up with the squad. It is good news for Nigerians that Victor Osimehn will be available for the semi final, he has impacted a lot on the team and have proven that he is irreplaceable and if he misses out it will be a big blow for Nigeria.

Inter Milan are running away with the wins and points on the table. If they continue with the form they are in. There is no chance whatsoever for others to chase them down. Their win against Juventus, who were the closest behind them widens the game even further. Juve is having a great season in their own right but is still unable to keep up with Inter. Can anyone chase Inter down?
The match against Juventus was. A crucial match that will determine their fate of winning the league, Inter Milan played the game as a champion would and they got the result they fought so hard for. Juventus were totally outplayed despite their good run of form, It now means Inter Milan are having the best season in the league so far. They are 4 points clear now with one more outstanding game to play at hand with the possibility of extending their lead further, i don’t think there is any team that can challenge them at the moment because they are in top form and if they continue this way then the league is already theirs for the season.

There's no need to exaggerate because so far Roma haven't played against a strong team Roma's victory was against 3 teams at the bottom of the standings that's not surprising because on paper Roma should win. Try checking Roma next match schedule for this week, are you sure Roma will win again?
Winning 3 matches in a row should be celebrated no matter who the opponents are, that’s 9 points secured it will be a boost and come in handy for them. It can also help to motivate them in upcoming games as well. They have tougher matches ahead so we can easily rate their performance if it’s improved or not.
489  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could bitcoin become extinct? on: February 06, 2024, 08:37:53 AM
Even while new technologies are developed periodically, it seems highly improbable that bitcoin would go extinct, especially given how quickly its adoption rate is increasing.

Is it possible for a new technology to be created in order to enhance bitcoin technology? Though I believe that since we live in a more evolved age and new innovations are made more frequently, there may be in the future, but bitcoin will not become extinct. When something loses value and is viewed as worthless by people, it becomes extinct, this will not happen to bitcoin. Instead, it will continue to grow in value and be beneficial to individuals. It has survived a lot of criticism and competition from the government and other new cryptocurrencies but i believe in bitcoin and i know it will stay relevant for a very long time.

It will be difficult for any new technology to entirely replace bitcoin and drive it extinct instead, they will coexist and complement one another.

Patience is standing up after failing again and again. If you fail once, try again. If you fail again, try again. Keep trying and you will succeed. Patience is the greatest power to succeed in anything. Those who have the power of patience are successful in life.
That’s just the spirit of successful people. Success doesn’t just come just like that, i know some people get lucky and don’t actually have to go through aa lot but the percentage of the lucky ones are just few compared to those who have to work their way up to achieve success.

A successful person will tell you the way up is not easy it needs consistency, dedication, commitment, patience and hard work. And having all these attributes doesn’t guarantee success, some people are bound to fail couple of times and keep trying before they eventually succeed. It is never too late, if there is life there is always hope to achieve success so i agree with you that patience is an essential key to achieving success. This also applies to trading cryptocurrencies.

Cristiano Ronaldo is currently injured and I'm yet to confirm if he'll be fit enough to feature for his club as they play against their Saudi Pro League rival Al Hilal later this week. Just two days ago, Lionel Messi's Inter Miami played against Al Nassr but were humiliated with an embarrassing result as they were thumped with a 6:0 scoreline and after Lionel Messi was introduced after the 80th minute mark, Inter Miami still failed to find the back of the net.
In the league, Al Nassr and Al Hilal have been the top two sides in
the Saudi Pro League table and that's I'm sure that the two clubs will be putting in their all to win against each if not for anything, for the bragging rights of the club's fans.
I don’t think it’s a serious injury because i saw a video posted by Al Nassr page where he was involved with the training, i know some injuries might not stop a player from training but they might not be able to feature in a match so there is no certainty as to weather he will be fit to feature in the match. Ronaldo is an important player that should play no matter what because his experience and ability will be needed and also his leadership skill will come in handy if they want to challenge Al Hilal.

Al Hilal is a very strong team that have always given Al Nassr tough time this season, they very consistent with their performance and they are no showing any signs of slowing down they seem to be very focused and dedicated to winning the league this season. Al Nassr are also trying all they can to meet up with Al Hilal but it is proving to be difficult, if they can win this match i think they will close up the gap and they will have more chance of challenging for the title.

Liverpool played this games so well that I had so much hope on them but second half was flopped, Klopp allowed many mistakes that shouldn't have happened and he realized that but was confused with the situation when Konate was thrown out with a red card. Even from the ball pass accuracy, Liverpool were doing well but the didn't convert their potential, imagine they had just 1 short on target, that's poor game from Liverpool been the top of the team from the standing. I will call these fair since Liverpool didn't allow Arsenal to win their home, they also protected Emirate stadium yesterday which is cool.
Mistakes are part of games and mistakes happen when a team is under pressure. It first seem Liverpool had the game under control but in the second half everything changed and Arsenal took control of the game and it led to some costly mistakes. It was not Liverpool’s day, Kloop seemed confused and the players didn’t know what was happening, they lost focus and the red card made everything worse for them because Konate is a key player that gives the team balance.

The result will make the league more interesting as Three teams will now be fighting their way to the trophy, they will all be more serious as not to lose any more points that will see them drop off the title challenge. Arsenal had the advantage to win the game since they are playing at home and they ended up utilizing the opportunity.

I think to educate people on topics like this you will need to provide more detailed information in order to convince them why saving viral information on their phone is wrong. Your points are not bad but more light need to be shed on them. Phones can be compromised and not difficult to hack as we have seen several instances of phone hacks so saving anything on it is not 100% safe.

It's really wrong to save vital information on your phone such as;
 * Login password on your browser or on your mobile apps: have you ever imagined if your phone got stolen or lost and it fell into the wrong hands, and how disastrous it might be to you? It's a very wrong move which should be avoided by all cost
Phone hacks are very common this days and it is not necessarily when phones get stolen or lost that passwords can be compromised or accessed by another person, any device that is being connected to the internet is prone to being hacked that’s why it is not safe to save passwords on your phone. We should be very careful with the links we access on our phones as some links can be used to gain access to the data on our devices.

* saving your Secret phase on your phone: if you are ever concerned about your on security, then this one should be avoided by all means, because it's just like when you save you login banking details on your phone, in such senario, if your phone is being compromised and it fell into the wrong hand, then you will surely pay dearly for your actions..
Seed phrases are not meant to be kept on our devices that's why screenshots are not allowed to be taken and it is advised to write it down somewhere else and stored safely. Any device that is connected to the internet is liable to be hacked or compromised so any data stored on them will be compromised as well, seed phrases should be written, duplicated and store in different locations and not stored on mobile phones or anywhere near an internet connection.

South Africa is not an easy opponent and considering they have some sort of beef on social media amongst their fans they will want to make it difficult for themselves. At this level AFCON has now become more intense and interesting and so no team will want to lose at this stage. Nigeria can win it if they actually work hard and become more serious than how they played against Angola because Angola has been their toughest opponent so far in the competition.
Nigeria has the potential of winning next tomorrow's game against South Africa, but only if they could play a more calculative game of scoring more goals and not the usual pattern of one goal, which they have always been known for all through the previous AFCON matches, because South Africa are known to have history of multiple goal scoring and likely to take chances if our "Super Eagles" give any, hence, it will be a more pleasure if our Super Eagles could keep fly as always to win this match and the trophy, as we are all eager to see what the outcome of this match will finally end up to be.
You do have a point, goals win you matches but the defensive nature of Nigerian current formation will make it very difficult to score more goals. I think sticking to that 3 men defense formation is what’s best for them if they want to have any chances of winning the game because as they progress in the competition the team spirit seem to be improving and are blending more as a team compared to other matches they adopted a different formation.

If they don’t concede a goal i think they should be capable of winning the match, i trust the defense but the midfield has a little lapses which they need to improve on. They are currently having a fine run in the competition and they should keep the fire burning. South Africa cannot be underestimated at all and of all they should avoid penalties because the South African goalkeeper as shown how good he is in penalties.

Chelsea has carried their free fall to this week again. I don't see any seriousness in this Chelsea team. This has to stop, you can't be losing in front of your fans almost every week. Losing 2:4 to a struggling wolves side is unacceptable. Pochettino looks like a man who has ran out of ideas. The early Chelsea relief him of his duties the better for them.
Chelsea’s performance is getting worse and worse every week as if they don’t train, there is really no sign of seriousness in their play, no togetherness and the team have almost lost it’s trust from the fans as they keep losing matches every now and then. The coaches are not doing enough to make the team improve and it’s as if they are not up to the task to get the team to where they should be.

At this point I wouldn’t blame the owner if he decides to sack Pochettino and his coaching crew because it is unacceptable to spend so much money on a team and still get such poor results. Losing to almost any team they are faced with, Pochettino is really out of ideas and has no tactical ability to improve the team, he doesn’t even impose any game plan on the players, they just go out there and play the way they want.

French medias are already announcing codedly a Kylian Mbappe deal to the galacticos by the end of the Season; I really do hope it’s true and we can watch mbappe have his dream move to Real Madrid

What do you think about a rodrygo, mbappe and Vinicius front 3 ?
Will definitely go down to becoming one of the deadliest Trio in football. Those 3 are talented players on their own, they are good attacking players and playing for Real Madrid will make them invincible, they will lift Madrid to an unprecedented level. Mbappe to Real Madrid is the perfect move for both parties, both sides will benefit significantly form one another as Mbapppe will accomplish a lot for the team and also with the help of the team he will is likely to lift the UCL and also become a contender for the Ballon D’or by just playing for Real Madrid.

Rodrygo, Mbappe Vinicius front 3 will be a scary front 3 backed up by Bellingham.

A few days ago, my friend luckily won a bet and have used the funds to open a business for his wife and himself
And that's where my question is coming from because for some, they're into gambling to make money, whereas some gamble for fun, but if luckily for you, and you have won a bet in the past, or luckily, you win a reasonable amount of money, did you achieve something with the money?/will you try to sort out some of those problems that lead you to go into gambling, like using it to establish a business, or did you lavished the money because it was unexpected free money?
Wow I have so much respect for this friend of yours, he have proven that he is one responsible gambler who doesn’t just gamble for fun but rather he gambles with  ambition, aiming to become someone, he knows what he wants and with such mentality one can easily get the best out of gambling. Alot of people lose their gambling winnings to gambling again because they are greedy and don’t know what they want and when to stop.

I have not really won much from gambling but with the little amount i do win i make sure i don’t lose all my winnings to gambling again, i always withdraw all winnings from the casino and bet again when i feel like.

I don’t know what will happen but I just want to test myself and see if i will make the best use of the money if i eventually win it big in gambling  Grin . People who lavish such huge amounts have no plans for themselves whatsoever that’s why they don’t do anything reasonable with such wins .


I know of a guy living in my street who won a huge amount of money in gambling last year, he lavished the whole money and now came back being broke.
There are a-lot of people who end up being broke after winning a huge amount, i feel only few of them have a good mentality to do reasonable things with such money. Gamblers are known for their lavish lifestyle and misuse of money that’s why most gamblers are not respected in my area.

The Arsenal vs Liverpool match will of course be very fierce, Liverpool is in top form at the moment but I will not underestimate Arsenal because they will play in front of their own supporters, I think there is a high probability that a draw will occur and that is quite fair in my opinion.
Liverpool is no doubt in top form at the moment, they have been havving a great season winning matches back to back and they are showing no signs of slowing down. They are already on top of their game and it won’t matter where they are playing be at home or away they are still capable of winning games. Arsenal is not a small opponent so they cannot be underrated at all but to win Liverpool they will need to play more intense football than they have been playing in past games because Liverpool seems to be king of counter attacking football at the moment.

Arsenal do have an advantage to win since they will be playing at home in front of their fans but even at that they need to be serious and approach the game with caution and not let Liverpool dominate with their counter attacking style. I also expect a draw from this game but if Arsenal wins they will close up the gap between them and also give Manchester City a chance to overtake Liverpool.

It’s just surprising the way Ivory Coast manage to get to their current level, a club that struggled before they could qualify for round 16. I never expected them to qualify for the quarterfinal, but the most surprising part is that they are now in the semi final of the tournament. It's really a nice one because Ivory Coast is a country that everyone already lost hope in, but they are struggling, and they are winning their matches, which is good. They played a draw against Mali today, and they played a penalty, and Mali was defeated.
They seem to be emulating what Portugal did in Euro 2016, going from the best losers in the group stage to winning the Euro back in 2016. If care is not taken the same thing could happen in the AFCON 2024 because to me it seems they have the easiest opponent among the qualifiers to the semi finals and this could be an opportunity for them to win the tournament. Ivory Coast has been given an opportunity and i think they are on the right course to winning the competition, it will not be easy but it is possible. Let’s see the outcome and see if they will against Guinea.

I expect the super eagles to progress to the final. This can only be possible if they work harder than their game between Angola as they are equally playing a tougher opponent this time around.
South Africa is not an easy opponent and considering they have some sort of beef on social media amongst their fans they will want to make it difficult for themselves. At this level AFCON has now become more intense and interesting and so no team will want to lose at this stage. Nigeria can win it if they actually work hard and become more serious than how they played against Angola because Angola has been their toughest opponent so far in the competition.
