Before starting a business, what you must instill in yourself is to have a strong intention and determination to advance your business consistently. And apart from that, you also have to have a good strategy to be able to compete and you also have to have good quality goods and good marketing and affordable prices.
And most successful business people must be able to get through the first 3-5 years of struggle to start their business until it becomes big or advanced, and this must be thought about first. Especially capital, and other problems that will be faced and so on, you have to think about it and be ready to take risks not to give up.

The point is that everyone who wants to enter and compete in the business world then obviously the first thing they have to prepare and the most important thing is to have a strong mentality, good planning and good management, you will never know that there will always be competitors who are much stronger and who have more preparation than you, so of course they must have the things I mentioned and you mentioned too before finally getting involved in the business world. For the capital problem I think it is now less of a problem because obviously there are enough loan services that can provide you with capital as long as you are really very confident in the plan and the business you are going to build, but on the other hand I admit that it is better to use personal money because then you will not feel much pressure from the money you use.

True, although it looks long enough but I think it doesn't matter because it's a process to achieve success and success in running your business, there are always failures along the way but that's natural because you are undergoing a process, usually people will really fail when they are unable to withstand or face all the difficult processes in the business they build, and that is why some fail and some succeed, success is only for those who really want to struggle and try hard at all costs.

One way to always avoid this, make sure that you stake responsibly and gamble with the amount you can afford to lose, when you go above your power, you will feel uncomfortable watching that match freely. In short, you wouldn't mind entering the TV screen just to make sure your predictions come true. It is better to bet with the amount you have and can lose to avoid stories that touch the heart later.
Another way to avoid it is to not take it too seriously. It is supposed to be fun and not some very serious business. So sit back relax, have some fun. I don't think it is wise thing to count your winnings before the outcome. Counting it, puts you on the edge and  you have nothing on your mind other than that. You become nervous and too focused on the game.

Actually it's not the casino or the final result that makes you disappointed but rather it's your own hopes and expectations that make you finally feel disappointed and sorry, if we take it casually and not too seriously as you suggest then I think you will still be fine even if the final result is not what you expected, which is why putting a small budget is highly recommended because with that the level of disappointment they feel will also not be too significant and can still be accepted properly.

Of course that's true, gambling is not a necessity and anyone has the freedom to bet but it is expected and recommended that it is better to use a small budget because as I said above, and also gambling will be more fun if we come with the intention of not overdoing it and focus only on enjoying every sensation we get, on the other hand too focused on the final results of betting will make us feel a little worried and by using a small budget I think you will not experience the pressure that can make you worry enough.

I didn't watch the first half of the Arsenal vs Brighton game, but I can't believe that Arsenal had 15 shots and Brighton zero... I expected both teams to score a goal... I hope that the second half will be with goals from both teams...
I find it weird too to go full defence and not reaching the goalie. Brighton will count only on counterattack? The response came fast and gunners scored a goal. The result is 1 - 0 and Brighton coach has to change his strategy.

Brentford 1 - 0 Aston Villa which were expected to win in this match. There is still half an hour to try to reverse the score hopefully.
Meanwhile, Ten Hag must be stressed and sweating right now. Previous Manchester United coaches including Mourinho were sacked after humiliating defeats against Liverpool. United already had a very bad results, being kicked from UEFA Champions League and his odds to be fired after that match are high. He has to win or at least grant one point from that match!

Aston Villa was able to get back up and equalize the position then finally returned to maximize the additional goal in the 85th minute, but Aston Villa had to pay a heavy price for this victory because Kamara was awarded a red card. On the other hand, it is certainly a loss for Brentford because they lost plus the player had to get a red card. Well this is quite equal for each club. With a winning record, Aston Villa has now placed itself in second place behind Arsenal, who has just won full points over Brighton. So Liverpool's task is to put more pressure on them to achieve a landslide victory. I will not doubt this match because based on several matches at home, Liverpool can always control the game and win. Moreover, Man United is being hit by injuries, the line up is also not very ideal in my opinion. Liverpool need 3 points to regain their position at the top of the standings, so this could be a pretty hot match.

I trust btc / gold and cash.
It's too bad many of us experinces a lot banking errors like the online banks don't work and cybercrimes in otherwords our money is not in safe and all those online bank wallets not always working good.
Gold offcourse If you can hold it where good place to storage i trust physical locations Smiley for example London and i can get credit on my gold collateral aswell Smiley

I don't think real estate and property is area of speculation i see real estate as place where to live and good for people to have some place to live as home.
The real estate prices don't make any sense because they are in the DEBT ECONOMY i stay away from debt economy yes you could make good profit but since debt economy bubble can pop it can trigger fast and you might not get out you can lose fast.

I stay away debt and i don't play or speculate things what not backed of any value.
One day all those debt economy gamblers will learn Lesson hard way , yes you can make money like taking the mortgage and then renting out ....but here is the thing it's like a gamble you can win a lot but can lose fast.
everything is in a  gray area when you are  constantly alert but on the other hand try to advise yourself by  keeping it with a third party. Isn't that the same as giving up your rights? Gold and real estate have risks even Bitcoin has the same risks, here we cannot  play safe if we are not ready to face the risks. Because if there is a safe choice then  everyone in the world will experience wealth equally. Therefore there is always a risk for those who dare to bet.

Likewise with mortgages if you look at the profit cycle during the covid 19 pandemic it is clear that there is a big bubble that provides multiple profits. When placing any investment if you are able to understand the market situation and conditions then you can play in it. Now that the era of digitalization is almost familiar Bitcoin is the top of the chain where everything will lead to the same point.  Mass adoption has shifted towards increasingly expanding people access in the world,  they just need to make a  decision and be ready for all the risks.
485  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Prove me wrong: Gambling is both more relaxing and entertaining than trading! on: December 17, 2023, 03:07:20 PM
There's no doubt gambling is more entertaining. However, gambling is considered to be more risky than trading. Gambling was created as a way to provide entertainment for people who are looking for some enjoyment or an activity to relax. That's why a lot of people prefer to spend more time in gambling than trading. Trading can be more fun especially when you understand the market by knowing how to do Technical Analysis, and also if you are making profits out of your trading. Aside from that, in trading you should be serious in everything, in return, if you win, the happiness of predicting the market right is really fun.

I think whether gambling is entertaining or not really depends on how people treat and respond to gambling itself, if they come firmly just looking for fun and entertainment then obviously it will happen, but on the other hand there are also many who come with the aim like they trade that is looking for income, no other mistake in understanding what gambling is the main cause, they misunderstand just because there is a chance of winning there so it makes them act out of control just because to realize their hopes and expectations.

Back to the original topic, basically trading is not intended for anyone to seek entertainment because there is no aspect that can make you entertained except for some thrill from the profit you managed to get and make your planning go well. Trading in particular is a place to build a career of success with the success of the learning process and the experience you do and get that can certainly make you consistently profitable, but that is not in the concept of gambling, and that is why many say that gambling should be considered as a place of entertainment only and nothing more than that.
486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? on: December 17, 2023, 02:35:42 PM
Watching with bet used to be more enjoyable than just watching a match. When you've placed a bet on a match, it makes us watch the match and gives us the opportunity to avoid loss if things were against our prediction. Apart from the same my preference used to be live betting which lets us predict the outcome in a much closer manner.

Not for me though, when I watch the game and I see my team aren't playing well, everytime I do a live bet, I have experience losing most of the time. So it's not working for me, watching it and thinking of live betting will only make the situation worse, unless you are a professional sports bettor and you have a data to back up your pick, however, if it's "emotion-based" bet, forget it.

We're the same, that's why I don't really watch anymore when I have a bet because I can't focus watching because the other half of my mind is busy thinking about my bet and thinking if I'm going to win or not, seems like being an overthinker can really manifest the thing that they're thinking which somehow results of losing.

I think it's better to keep those two things separate, or I mean if you want to bet then focus on your betting and if you're just there for the fun of the match you're watching then it's better not to put money into the match you're watching, or I mean don't bet at the same time when you're focused on the fun of the match that's going on.

But on the other hand I think it's all about choice, each individual has the freedom to choose whether they will watch while betting or not, and also each gambler has a different level of pleasure, there are also those who can get 100% pleasure by having to bet on their favorite team's match. The point is I think it's better to focus on one thing only and like you said don't let our brains and minds be distracted just because of the worry of losing that could make our money disappear, so it's better to seek pleasure without risking losing.

The method of having a break is actually  quite good but not everyone can do it and it also depends on what game is being played.  Just like I won't finish until all bets are actually fulfilled in some places. Then if there is  a certain moment that supports my game enough to be profitable every time I bet I can't stop and still want to maximize  the opportunity rather than having to go out for a moment. There were even times when I bet on spending everything for hours irregularly and not caring about the time.
488  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 16, 2023, 03:34:29 PM
As predicted although there were some doubts for me about Tottenham in this match, but finally Tottenham can secure the full three points in this match despite having to experience a red card on one of its players midway through the second half, initially I thought that by playing with only 10 people then Nottm Forest would be able to at least catch up  with its goal towards the end of the second half but good Tottenham can break all that speculation by successfully maintaining its advantage in terms of score until the end of the minute.

With this result it is clear that at least the confidence of the fans will be restored although maybe not completely, and with this good result at least Tottenham can be a little further away from Manchester United and equalize the number of points with Manchester City. Now they have a 2-point gap with Aston Villa who are in third place in the standings and a 3-point gap with Arteta's squad, but on the other hand the problem is that several other teams, especially those in the top five area, still have one match they have not played which means they have the possibility to continue to stay away from Tottenham's pursuit. Another thing is that I hope Tottenham will again be able to win the full three points in the next match against Everton.

Even though Tottenham won 3 points over Nottinghm Forest, their actual productivity is still lower than what they did at the start of the season. So now Tottenham just need to play it safe in the position they currently occupy. And there is no need to worry about Man United because no one can pose a threat from this troubled club.

Newcastle should be able to win this match if they want to improve their position, but Fulham is also not a weak club because of the fact that they have won twice in a row so it looks like they are currently in good condition, playing as host should be Newcastle's main asset in getting full points in today's match. My prediction is that Newcastle will win 2 - 1
I don't think Newcastle will be able to win this match. Fulham is flying high at the moment and are scoring a lot of goals as it stands. Newcastle are struggling due to injuries and most of their star players are still out injured. Newcastle has been collapsing late in the game because there are no squad dept and Fulham will capitalize on this. I don't see Newcastle performing well again until January.
Returning to focus on the match that was currently taking place I was initially quite optimistic that  Fulham would be able to put up a little resistance especially in the early minutes when  he still lost a little control. However after Raul Jimenes received a red card it would  be very easy for Newcastle to make a difference  in the second half. Certainly a loss will be experienced by the Fulham  players because Newcastle has an open gap.

I am pretty surprised that you still think he is a good coach and he's just being unlucky. He is just bad. And he will not be able to make Manchester United improve. In my opinion, he never was able to improve Manchester United.  And now it is just evident. That's why people are actually losing their minds. In my opinion, he was never a good coach. He had no clear plan of what to do. He just tried a bunch of things and previously that seemed to work out for some reason. But now it is not working anymore.
I agree with you, but the problem is that Ten Hag doesn't admit it in front of the media and continues to ramble on as if everything he does is a good decision. Surprisingly, Ten Hag is not good at covering up mistakes so no one knows at Man United that he has not made any improvements so far. Because the players realized that Ten Hag's strategy was not effective in making the opponent lose. From the selection of players who are believed to show many negative points, they are unable to improve the team as a whole. Buying Mason Mount is just to prolong the injury the choice of goalkeeper is worse than De Gea, buying Ajax players also doesn't seem to really contribute. So Ten Hag still doesn't recognize this kind of thing and is even more ignorant.

Tottenham vs Nottm Forest

I think this should be a fairly easy match for Tottenham if we reflect on their performance in their last match against Newcastle. But on the other hand there are still doubts, especially from myself to Tottenham, because they often slip lately because they cannot maintain their impressive performance. Honestly on the other hand I will not be too confident for this match and maybe I will not be able to conclude too early whether Tottenham have really returned to their impressive form if only by getting a win against Newcastle in yesterday's match. Overall I think Tottenham should be able to win this match by getting the full three points to equalize their points with Manchester City who are in 4th place or further away from the pursuit of Ten Hag's squad, but we'll see if it will be really easy for Tottenham or vice versa in tomorrow's match.
491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The need for mental section or public orientation for new gamblers. on: December 15, 2023, 01:24:00 PM

It might help at first but sooner or later, beginners will just ignore it again.

What if a casino site requires every gambler to read the beginners guidelines and instructions before they can use the platform? By doing this at least they spreading knowledge about gamblers and they can help beginners to actually understand gambling and how risky it is. This might be a big hassle at first but its impact can last forever.
This is a good suggestion and its like having a quiz first and you have to passed it before you can actually enjoy the whole features of the platform. If they will also asked questions about their rules and terms, I’m sure many gamblers will be forced to read it and they will be more aware about the casino itself. Having another section specifically for gambling here might not help at all, many will surely not talked about it especially if all about rules, suggestions and opinions because gamblers want to talk more about results and predictions here.

Yes, I also quite agree with that suggestion, basically in any case usually humans don't like the name of the rule, usually they will prefer to ignore it and don't care whether it is important or not. But if all the directions for an understanding in gambling are applied by force, with the scenario that if they do not read it correctly or cannot fill in the questions correctly then they will not be able to enter gambling to get involved.

It is quite difficult but usually everything starts with coercion which will make them feel forced and finally get used to it, with that method then I am sure that at least it can help to expand their understanding and insight into all the rules that exist in gambling, especially in terms of risk.
492  Economy / Economics / Re: Inventing a job is better than finding a job on: December 15, 2023, 12:57:50 PM
It is better to arrange your own job than to look for a job.  I always think that it is better to start a business on your own than to work under someone. If you can start a business by yourself, then you can employ five more unemployed people there.  Moreover, you said that the job market is very depressed now, it is really right. There are thousands of candidates for a job. This is because of the increase in population. You should do something innovative yourself without relying on anyone.  There are various businesses, which can be started with little capital. And if we get frustrated thinking that we will succeed before taking any risk, then it is not possible to do anything new in life.
Now the job market is very bad, many youths are frustrated not to find a job even after studying for a long time and at the last minute to look for a job.  Because now it becomes very difficult to run a family with the salary that is earned by working. Therefore, if the business can be set up by itself, then some other people can be arranged to work there as well as they can live happily and peacefully with the family.

Those who tend to find jobs are often those who do not have the capital or experience to start a business. So if they have difficulty finding jobs and earning income, how can they open their own businesses and hire others to work for them? I believe that if everyone had a choice, no one would want to work for someone else, everyone would want to be their own boss to be free and make more money. But life is not as simple as we think and say, and that is why not too many people can do their own business and become boss.

Right, that's usually the case and you've already said one of the reasons why they prefer to look for a job rather than build their own business, low financial capability is the main factor that makes them unable to do something like that or I mean unable to build their own business. I think this has become a very common thing, but sometimes there are also those who still work for other people but they have their own business at home whether it's opening a food shop or whatever it might be managed by one of their family members such as their wife.

Obviously they won't be able to build or open their own business if they basically don't have a job to raise capital for the purpose of opening their business, that's a fact and maybe I would only say it's possible if they are one of the children of rich people where there is a role of both parents who provide them with capital. But if you are not one of them then obviously you will find it difficult to be able to build your own business especially if you do not have a main job.

Really, Girona's journey this season is like a storybook. The fact that they were only trying to avoid relegation makes their rise to the top of La Liga even more impressive. Their plan and hard work paid off. Their ability to score goals really stands out to me. None of their star players do all the work; everyone, from the wingers to the midfielders, participates. Their varied way of striking makes them a tough opponent for any team. Their enormous confidence must have grown a lot after their recent win over Barcelona. They have my support to keep their lead. Being dedicated and working as a team shows that even the "smaller" teams can dream big.
However, Girona's process of currently being at the top of the La Liga standings is not easy. Michel Sanchez's important role as a coach was extraordinary in building the team.
Last season they also had to work hard enough to finish in the middle of the standings. but now the coach's strategy is working very well. every player understood the intent of the coach's tactics and it succeeded in placing Girona at the top, competing with Madrid and Barcelona.
Compatibility between players and coaches is the key to being able to play an ideal game. So Girona can already read how to face opponents, no matter how big the club is. As long as you can build teamwork and don't give up easily, the results will be more satisfying. Girona needs to maintain this consistency, because we want to see La Liga have new candidates so that they don't get bored every season. Girona existence is certainly a big threat, especially after successfully beating Barcelona, Madrid demanded that they be more alert when they meet again. btw the two will meet in Week 24 of La Liga if I'm not mistaken. We hope that both teams are in the same stable condition so they can play an entertaining game.

Group stage was very unfair for Newcastle United to be honest. Considering how bad Manchester United was in that group with Galatasaray and Kopenhag, Newcastle could go even to next round if they were in that group.

It was not unfair but bad luck for them in the drawing but we cant say that Newcastle will be able to qualify if they were in Man United position. We cant put aside the fact that the overall performance of Newcastle is dropped a lot recently as proven with their previous 2 matches in EPL. They were beaten by Everton and Spurs with 3 goals difference. Basically Newcastle played well against Milan in the first half by dominating the ball possession, shots on goal etc and Milan was not even able to create 1 shot on goal in the 1st half. Surprisingly Milan were able to improve a lot in the 2nd half and create more goal attempts than Newcastle. It proves that there was something wrong with Newcastle and it may also happen if they were in Man United position.  
Like it or not, this is a competition, it's no pity that all clubs compete fairly and Newcastle can only show results up to here. But Newcastle failure does not need to be regretted, because if the players already have the mentality of competing in the Champions League, it means next season will definitely be a mandatory target for them to return. All teams fought hard, but Newcastle were just a little unlucky in this decisive match.

I love the outcome of the game tonight and PSG did what I expected of them because it wouldn't have make sense had Paris St. German crash out of the champion this early. With the the kind of form and determination I saw in Borussia Dortmund team this season's champions league, you will easily tell that PSG will not win Dortmund in their home soil, therfore going their and getting a draw was the best option so far in securing the second spot in the group to qualify for the next round of competition.
I don't think PSG would have survived to the next stage of the UCL. They PSG were just lucky to scale through, without them in the next round the competition would have still made sense. I still feel PSG are not ready yet to win the UCL trophy going by the way they are struggling in the competition, I wouldn't be surprised they get knockout from the R16 stage.
We know for ourselves how PSG in the UCL always fails to win trophies, plus this season will definitely be more difficult. The reason is that there are still many clubs that are much more worthy of being in the top 4 perhaps for the top 8 PSG can qualify (narrowly). With the club condition not being very strong, PSG is having difficulty and even the defeat against Newcastle gives a small idea that the PSG players readiness is still lacking. Last season they still had several supporting players such as Messi and Ramos, but this time there is no guarantee for PSG to go further.

There are some coaches that have the power to either elevate a club or downgrade a club, Manchester United have suffered from the hands of some coaches. Manchester United is an elite club, no one would stand the chance of beckoning on a club that's inconsistent in performance, let alone depend on the Red Devils. Erik Ten Hag is a strict coach, he's a curious manager that doesn't applies disciplinary measures outside his tents, instead he keeps all the pressures on his players and his intends is merely to top up his points and heightened his reputation in Old Trafford.
But in fact the pressure exerted by Ten Hag led to bad results. Indeed, there is nothing wrong with being a disciplined and strict coach, but if you are able to build good relationships first, maybe the Man United players will not be awkward and fully support what Ten Hag wants. Now the situation has actually turned around and backfired for the coach. Therefore, sometimes before implementing disciplinary rules it is necessary to first look at each player's characteristics, because not all of them can be challenged in a harsh and authoritarian manner. The Ten Hag principle may be good but it depends on the feedback the player gives whether it is positive or not. The result is mutual incompatibility is visible and this can have a very bad impact over time.

The inconsistency of La Liga's top teams this season can be put to good use by Girona so that they can top the La Liga standings so far.
When Madrid had to be held to a draw by Real Betis and Girona also had to face Barcelona, that was their opportunity to maintain the gap in points so that they could have many opportunities to win the title this season. I think even though they are two points behind Madrid, who are below them, Girona must remain. consistently on the winning track to be able to win the title this season well.

Michel as Girona's coach seems to be good at maintaining the stamina and performance of Girona's players, he is able to play player rotation well to remain in a stable condition so that he can face the opponent optimally to get a complete victory, not playing in the European league of course Girona is very superior in that regard so they only focused on laliga and copa del rey.
Apart from that the Girona players are able to balance each other, it can be seen that when creating opportunities almost everyone contributes and Michel continues to try to develop individual abilities so that even though the Girona players rotate the balance remains the same. Michel is like a coach who came down from the sky, able to create the perfect scheme of active play on every line with a clear method of controlling the ball completely to keep the opponent busy in their own defense. Regarding competition with Madrid because the difference is quite thin, Michel requires not to be careless. As much as possible, they must be able to create a greater distance of points because it is possible that after what Girona has achieved this season, Madrid must consider this as a serious threat.
497  Economy / Economics / Re: Luxury and spending lifestyle fastest way to poverty rich kids on: December 13, 2023, 12:58:25 PM

Agreed, a rich kid that enjoys life with the luxury and spends big money never understand much about love. Parents doesn't give attention and the kids seek attention with the money. This makes them have the thoughts of having anything with money. Even the humans will be seen as commodities by some kids. When a kid have grown from a poor background he knows the value of a product as he/she had worked hard to get it. Majority of the problem gets solved through right parenting unlike poor/rich status.
Well, the perspective of the rich parent is that they've worked hard to give their kids a good life and that's also us. But everything has a limitation.

I'm sure that most of these rich parents are like that but sometimes, they go that much and becomes too spoiled and they can't them from being like that.

The purpose of parents working hard is of course as you said, they want a more decent life and focus what they have managed to achieve for the good of their children, or the point is that parents want all their children to live well or even more than that. But on the other hand, there are quite a few parents who instill a hardworking spirit in their children, they only focus on pleasing all their children and their other families from the results of the hard work they have done and without giving a proper understanding of the difficulty of earning money, which is why many children of rich people live in luxury by doing whatever they want to do, buying whatever they want without thinking and also often splurging, so the idea of the title above is very true that the luxury and lifestyle carried out by the rich does not rule out the possibility of making their parents fall into poverty or return to the lowest point in life.

Understanding related to management really - must be applied to them, too much in fulfilling all the wishes of their children easily will certainly make a child more spoiled and I think it is the wrong upbringing, not infrequently we see the children of rich people who disobey their parents, it is because of the wrong upbringing that makes them too spoiled. So the application of correct understanding, especially regarding simple living, is really recommended.
498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I learnt from a crackhead about gambling on: December 13, 2023, 12:39:22 PM
One way or another, money should bring, among other things, pleasure. For some people it is fun to save money, and for others it is fun to spend money. Gambling is designed to bring a certain kind of pleasure. The main thing is that the loss should not be more than the amount allocated for the game
Money can indeed bring pleasure, but there are some people who can get pleasure not from things they have to pay dearly for, there are even people who have spent a lot of their money but they don't necessarily get the pleasure they want, indeed It is true that gambling was created to get certain pleasure in the games that have been provided, but if we cannot control ourselves in the game then we will be played by the winnings and a lot of our money will be used up playing the game.
Gambling is an activity that uses money to gain pleasure. But even though they have used a lot of money, they won't feel satisfied if they haven't won. And it will be different from the purpose of gambling, where gambling is used by people to get pleasure and not to get winnings. For them, winning is a bonus that comes to those who are lucky so they will stop gambling once they have enough. When gambling, a person must have self-control so as not to be trapped by the temptation of gambling, which can make them lose more money. Only with self-control will we know when to stop gambling so that we will not lose a lot of money.

It's like exchanging money for fun, that's how it should be, so just bringing a small budget I think is enough to make you feel good. And on the other hand for those gamblers who always spend a lot of money to bet I think their goal is not to seek pleasure but on the contrary, they come with the aim of earning, so they are always often involved by making deposits again when they lose.

Exactly, winning is basically just a bonus for your dedicated involvement in the activity, and the name of the prize in any case is profit - profit, so it makes no sense if you come with the aim of always getting the prize in question. Misunderstanding leads people astray in gambling, and that's what makes them suffer a lot of losses instead of getting wins, there's no other way if you don't want to suffer such losses again than to justify your point of view on gambling, and after that I'm sure you will have no trouble in applying some limits there for prevention.

Basically, Erik ten Hag is not as bad as some previous coaches because after all, in his first season Erik ten Hag also managed to make Manchester United finish in the top four. Although indeed, in this second season there have been many changes made by Erik ten Hag but unfortunately, the results are not as expected because Erik ten Hag clearly failed this season compared to last season.
It is true that Erik Ten Hag is still far behind compared to previous coaches, but on the other hand he also needs to unite players and clubs with one goal. So, this is where several problems emerged which apparently made Ten Hag interfere and even be unable to show good relations with some of his players. Ten Hag feels entitled, but sometimes the coach does not always limit his relationship with the players, therefore on the field the players look quite stressed and awkward, as a result there is no solid teamwork.

As I said above, tonight match will not be too important for Bayern Munich, and seems like they are doesn't will be very serious to winning the reason is they are still qualify. But let's see tonight, because we all know Manchester United performance so far not really good.
Today there are 8 matches presented and one of them, although Man United match against Bayern Munich is considered not very important for the visitors I will watch it and want to make sure that Man United really ends this match with all the abilities they have. Bayern Munich will still take this match seriously because it is not an important issue of whether or not they get points, but rather their reputation which must be able to show their mentality on the opponent's goal. Before that, it is necessary to ensure that the results of the Copenhagen vs Galatasaray match will be a reference for Bayern and Man United with a draw scenario or one of them winning, potentially turning things around.

Maybe the most interesting match is Madrid vs Union Berlin, as a club which is currently trying to consistently beat Real Madrid it can also show tough competition, maybe Madrid will feel lighter and can relax a little.
