... and in my eye Barcelona midfielders especially bosquets is really slow in making transition from attacking to defending, just look at how many times Barcelona left behind this season?

Busquets has been the holding midfielder for over a decade, also during the two years when Barcelona won trebles (including a sextuple), he's speed or lack of, has not cost the team as much as it has over the past three seasons. There is a general lack of urgency about the game when Barcelona losses possession. This was one of the major strengths of the team during the Guardiola era. High press, from the oppositions box.

Ernesto Valverde plays a more conserved type of football, much doesn't mean a better defense as we (yeah, I'm a fan) still let in lots of goals. Bad for the team, but good for gamblers as you pointed out.

I am not sure that strategies are what can be learned, I think one have to actually personally develop the strategy that one uses to trade which I think only comes after learning so much about trading already.

As a newbie to trading, one would need lots of learning, this involves studying strategies that has worked for others and experimenting on them to find the most suitable one. It's advisable to stick to your strengths, but this is very likely a strategy that has been used by someone else in the same form or modified.

Of course one must first study the fundamentals, and build a strong base on which to diversify your learning. Do not dabble into trading on the back of someone else's success.

Regarding defense, I agree that it is important for Barcelona to evaluate what has happened.

The problem in Barcelona's defense does not include the four man wall alone. It is rather a team problem. The midfielders and wing forwards okay very important roles in the defensive shape of any team. Poor trackbacks and closing of spaces down the middle would leave the defense line exposed time and again.

They are likely to concede in any game against a side with a decent attack.

Arsenal London will try to beat belgium Standart, but away team is quite strong in defence now, just two goals missed in 4 last matches. I don`t see a confident victory here from home team.

Arsenal are a very strong side at home. And score freely when in front of their fans. Their defense is still the major problem at the club. In order to boost their season they may need to get new players during the next window or find a way to make the partnership between their two center halves work.

...

Leicester have been very brilliant from the turn of the new season, and if you consider their performances from last season when Brendan Rogers took over, it makes them even more impressive. Only very fee managers have picked up more points than him since he took charge at the king power stadium.
I do not think Liverpool vs Leicester would be an easy fixture for any of the teams.
5126  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin Make it back to $20k ? on: October 03, 2019, 06:08:09 AM
I predicted a few months ago that bitcoins would be worth over $15k per coin by the end of September, cause I was extremely bullish at that time. Now? Not so much. The price is tied down to so many factors, and that makes it difficult to predict what direction we are going to go.

Ideally, we could get to $20k before the end of the year, as every value is plausible. But realistically, I don't think we'd reach the all time high this year, or surpass it.

Very good contribution from Messi in the game. Suarez also played very well and was a decisive winner of Barcelona in the UCL match last night, although still in second place in the standings, there are still a few matches left.

Decent performance from Barcelona, that has been typical of their home games, and they extend their unbeaten run at the New Camp to 33 games with over a hundred goals scored and very few conceded.
Currently work needs to be done on the defense, as inter Milan had very good chances when they were on top of the game and the brilliance of Ter Stegen kept Barcelona in the game.

Why invest too much time and effort on a young prospect when you can put a well experienced and reliable player on the field?

Some teams can do both, expediently. And in todays game a player can only be young for so long. Considering the duration of a player's career which is averagely 17 to 18 years. A player should be peaking at 21 or 22 years of age. For this to happen,they have to start playing at the top level very early.

So it's never too early to integrate the young talents into the team. Look at what Manchester City I doing with Phil Foden and also what Barcelona are doing with Ansu Fati.

Yobit will never have that, they can pay whatever they like but they can't attract the best posters even with more money.

I don't think a truly quality poster would want to join a campaign which does not have a high degree of intolerance to spam. They would rather want to join a campaign that hand picks it's participants based on certain criteria and amongst strong competition from equally good posters.

Of course one could join the yobit campaign and only make as much post as they can. That is one of the positives of the campaign; it does not force members to post a certain amount in a given time.

Arsenal could have approached the game more positively and shown more intent to take the game to Manchester United. Starting with so many defensive minded midfielders expressed Emery's intent to not lose the game, perhaps trying to cover for the weak defence.

[both teams now stay where they belong ... 4 for arsenal and 10 for Manchester United in the EPL standings  Grin

Considering how much UCL football they've missed in the last couple of years, safe to say they no longer belong to the fourth position.

Barcelona would not be able to challenge the title this season.
I am very thoughtful that the La Liga title is going to return in Madrid this season. And once again Zinedine Zidane would be a hero in Madrid as he will return the title to the Spanish Capital.

Barcelona not winning the title is one thing, but they would surely challenge for it. They have had a very shaky start to the season, but are only two points adrift from the top. This is not an irreparable gap.
You are however right that there are no clear favourites and lots of the teams close to the top would be fancying their chances.
5132  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: September 30, 2019, 03:29:06 PM
Last year PSG were the favourites to go through against United but surrendered a two goal advantage at home, with a tougher opposition it would have been even worse.

In their defense their loss to Man United last season was a very unlucky one. They has the game in their hands and it slipped right through. The game could have easily gone in their favour.

They seem to be lacking an extra ingredient that would push them to the UCL title. Buy we saw teams like Ajax and Tottenham with no recent success in the competition go far last season. So maybe luck is that little extra they need.

Based on that experience and what I have read here in this thread from his fellow Russian-speaking members, I believe he would be an asset to the forum if reinstated.  Please consider giving him a second chance

From discussions I've followed on the matter of ban appeals, the forum administrators are sympathetic towards accounts that are of value to the community, but this would only count if the plagiarism was an 'innocent mistake', and not done with any; to complete a campaign task, to get merits for another's content or to increase forum activity (this would not be an issue now as activities are useless without merit(s)).

OK if yahoo62278 will manage this campaign, it will reduce spam for sure.

If he is allowed to manage within his own ambit rather than conform to the house rules already being enforced. Their current style targets quantity and renowned managers target quality. There would have to be a lot of changes on their regulations to ensure it's not another spam fest.
From the discussion I've followed in the other threads, they seem interested in getting a manager to handle the campaign.

I highly doubt there would be an official stance on the matter, the moderators would have to use their own discretion to decide whether or not to permit it.
And both parties involved in the sale would also have to show their license and prove they are from a jurisdiction that permits it's sale.
5136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times have you gone against majority on: September 27, 2019, 04:19:45 PM
One notable bet that comes to mind is the last match up between PSG and Barcelona in the round of 16 of the UCL. After the first leg trashing by PSG almost everyone thought Barcelona we're already out and needed a miracle to make it into the next round.
I went against the majority and bet on the Catalans to qualify. Which was much higher that the odds for them to win the match on the night. They left it late but won the match and the tie.
5137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoins era is coming? IDL has announced presale of one of its coins LAW. on: September 27, 2019, 03:55:20 PM
The pre-sale of one coin does not imply that the entire altcoin market is finally coming to. Altcoin is not a single currency, and while majority might move in a certain direction in the market they do not always react the same.

it’s a fully prepared project with almost 8k registered wallets on Ubikiri, dozens of masternodes, its own blockchain, really big ecosystem of already working projects.

Lots of projects have their own blockchain and also a working ecosystem, or at least they start up so. It's not an indication of if a project that would have a lasting impact on the market. Do you research, if you want to go long-term, short term or even invest at all.
5138  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC bearish sentiment breaks 2018 levels & folks start calling the bottom on: September 27, 2019, 03:44:23 PM
I don't think the market has bottomed yet based on the price action but that could be an indication we're getting close.

I also do not, I would not be surprised with figures below the $7k mark. But I do think that whatever bottom the value settles at would be a historic level, and we would not go below that again after the price bounces back from this period of dip.

Edit:  Sevilla's next fixture should be a good one (vs Real Sociedad Wink).

Both teams have made fine starts to the season, for Sevilla not much of a surprise, but Real Sociedad have been very impressive in their victories and also their style of play. Strong defensively and offensively. It's almost impossible to pick a winner, I'd much rather gamble on the number of goals as I expect quite a few from this fixture.
5140  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why hasn't any altcoin replaced bitcoin? on: September 27, 2019, 02:57:23 PM
Replace Bitcoin at the top of the market cap list or as a means of exchange?
I have my stash if cryptocurrencies and each one has it's own use case; I use some as hedge funds and others to access a certain product. Bidooh for example is used to purchase exposure on digital billboards. Bitcoin can not serve all this purposes, so every investment should have a target market.
If I were a developer, I wouldn't aim at replacing Bitcoin, rather I'd look for a unique way to utilize the blockchain.
