There is nothing strange because after all the team that is in the top four is the team that at least managed to make good consistency, having different views is not a problem because anything can still happen anyway. But regarding Liverpool being bad at the start I think maybe because they trusted Nunez too much, because in reality Nunez couldn't quickly make a good contribution to the team.
What's more, Klopp doesn't seem to have any other options after knowing that Nunez still can't replace Mane quickly.

Until the end, Klopp had to work even harder to get back to winning ways quickly and at least they succeeded a bit, because now Liverpool are only four points behind Manchester United who are in fifth place in the Premier League standings.
But even so, Liverpool still need more wins, because Manchester United is slowly getting better under Erik ten Hag.

Morocco has indeed been a surprise at this World Cup but that doesn't mean it will be easy for Morocco to win third place but even so, I also hope for Morocco to win whether it's in regular time or in extra time and or on penalties. At least with Morocco being able to score quick replies too, they can prove that they are still capable of providing strong resistance even though the Croatian squad can be said to be better with the experience they have as well.
But while typing this Croatia can score a second goal and it looks like Croatia will win at half time.

With the victory at half time, I will start doubting Morocco to be able to make a goal back in the second half.
Because so far we also realize that Croatia and Morocco have a good defense, so that when one of them has won at half time then it seems like the team that won at half time at this moment is Croatia will likely be able to maintain its advantage until the end of the match.

Of course, Napoli will also receive defeats and draws for the following matches, but I am sure that the bad results that Napoli will get will not continue to happen. Likewise with Inter's good results, at least Inter will not continue to win in all subsequent matches.
Therefore, these two teams will indeed get wins, draws and losses, but one thing I believe is that they will not continue to get the same results every match they play.

With these considerations, of course, these two teams will still have a gap that will not make them overtake each other, unless the gap is very close, then of course the possibility of overtaking each other is very likely.
But with this wide enough point gap, I personally doubt if they will get closer in the standings because of course Napoli will also defend its position in the standings with great effort.

Great if in fact there are other players who deserve to be man of the match, because we only know about Messi, of course we cannot doubt Messi's performance and contribution so far. But if actually there are other players who also have a big contribution, then of course that will also be very good for Argentina's performance and I'm not too concerned about which player is more worthy of getting the man of he match.
But indeed, if they also make a big contribution then the media should be able to bring it up to the media as well and not just about Messi.

Therefore, I think Argentina is indeed a team that has a chance to win but that doesn't mean it's an easy job.
Because after all, France is also at this very good moment so they still have the potential to win the title. Anyway, the two teams in this World Cup have great potential and what is a little different is the result in the first game. About Argentina who got the result of losing, while France really dominated the match from the beginning of the match.

Basically, the performance of Arsenal and Manchester City is also not as perfect as imagined, they are not easy to keep winning. It's just that, when the performance of Arsenal and Manchester City was not good, other competing teams also experienced very severe performance declines such as Liverpool and Chelsea.
But yes, we don't know what will happen next, but if I consider situations like this, then I think Liverpool still have a chance to finish in the top four.

Besides that, when I consider Arsenal and Manchester City's performance is not so perfect, then I doubt them to be able to win the title this season.
Even though so far Arsenal and Manchester City are still in first and second place in the Premiere League standings, it looks like their position will be taken over by a team that has just become the richest team and is experiencing a very rapid increase in performance.

It is very unfortunate indeed, Barcelona only buys expensive players but when Barcelona releases them or sells them only at a lower price. It's not a problem as a big club to buy expensive and sell cheap but what's really unfortunate is, players who were previously obtained at high prices but in reality these players can't contribute as they should and or a failure.
A case like this is of course an unhealthy investment and certainly destroys the club's own finances, so it is indeed difficult for Barcelona to get new players in the upcoming transfer market.

But if in the January transfer market later Barcelona can still buy some expensive players, then I would really question whether financial fair play is actually implemented or not.
Because Barcelona's financial case has become a big question mark by several other clubs and coaches out there. Even though they have new sponsors and have also sold their broadcasting rights but still, there will always be a limit to them buying a lot of luxury players at exorbitant prices.

Basically there is no guarantee that a team will be better or worse after the break, because any result can still happen. But yes, because before this break we got a great record from Napoli, then at least that's enough to make us confident that Napoli will be able to maintain this good result.
But of course not everyone has the same assessment, especially for those who have a strong love for certain teams. So they will also believe that the team they love will be able to break Napoli's dominance this season.

In fact, if we consider the existing point gap, I personally as a person who has a neutral view, at least I would say that the point gap is quite wide and difficult to overtake.
With these considerations at least it makes me sure that Napoli is safe enough at the top of the Serie A standings, because I'm sure Napoli will be able to maintain good results for other matches later. Unless I still think that Napoli will still be difficult to be consistent, then I also might have a view for Napoli's position which can still be taken over.

Yes indeed, Liverpool were able to win in the last two matches before yesterday's break but the fact is, Unai Emery was also able to make two consecutive wins before yesterday's break for Aston Villa when they played against Manchester United and Brighton in the Premier League. With the same result with two consecutive wins, I don't think Liverpool will be easy to beat Aston Villa at Villa Park.
Even if I consider their head to head results obviously Liverpool are better, but I'm still not completely sure about Liverpool.

Indeed, at this time it is also clear that even though Liverpool will play away, Liverpool are still the favorite team.
But even so, I still believe that Aston Villa under Unai Emery's coaching can get better. Therefore, maybe I would bet on Aston Villa with a handicap option like Aston Villa +1 or maybe +1.5. Because for me, even though Liverpool are the favorite team and for example can get three points, I'm sure the victory that Liverpool will get will not be with a big score and maybe only one goal difference, but I think the match could have ended in a draw.

I personally don't see any of them being superior because with them being able to have the same number of goals in this World Cup then of course they are the best and superior in their respective teams. Mbappe is ahead of France and Messi is ahead of Argentina, both have different ages but it's great that Messi, even though he is older, Messi can still show his best qualities competing with younger players.
If I consider this then it is clear, Messi who has a lot of experience and awards so I can say Messi is superior.

But if it's only about their rivalry for the top scorer in this World Cup, then I can't see which one is superior, because both of them also have a good style of play and support in the team.
Therefore, let's see who of them can score more goals in the final match because to be honest, scoring goals in the final match will be difficult because everyone involved in the final match will certainly put in a huge effort.

Will Endrick play for Real Madrid this season? Because it looks like Endrick will only join Real Madrid in 2024, at least there are still two years ahead for Endrick to be able to prepare everything even better. Maybe, there is an age limit for young players who can play for the main squad in the league and professional teams. Therefore, even though Real Madrid had made a transaction, Endrick did not immediately move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Considering that Endrick himself doesn't have much experience playing in different leagues and clubs, then of course it would be a big risk if Real Madrid took him right now.

With this transaction, of course, it is a great achievement that Endrick has had at a young age, because at his young age and not much experience, Real Madrid has seen the great potential that exists in Endrick and this opportunity is very rare for young players out there.
It will be interesting to wait for what big steps Endrick will make, because if during the two-year period before joining the Real Madrid main squad, Endrick did not have any achievements, then of course that would be a cause for concern as well.

Obviously Mbappe is more important than Dembele but I think the position of Dembele and Mbappe is different because it seems like Dembele plays more on the right and Mbappe on the left. With that difference I think it doesn't matter if both are played at the same time, and it also happened in this moment but Dembele is indeed often substituted and it seems very rarely Dembele plays the full 90 minutes.
Dembele and Mbappe are the main choices at their respective clubs, so it's not surprising that in the French national team at this World Cup moment Dembele and Mbappe are always the first choice in the starting eleven.

Regarding Benzema, at first it was predicted that France would have difficulties due to Benzema's absence but the fact did not happen, maybe because Benzema's absence also made Giroud able to show his quality as an old player who is still very productive.
It's just that maybe this is the last chance for Benzema to play in the World Cup, but in reality Benzema can't play because he's still suffering from an injury even though Benzema is in his best performance after getting the Ballon d'Or too.

Yes, if it is certain that Barcelona will win the La Liga title then maybe it is natural for Barcelona to consider the European League not important. But in fact, Barcelona also at this moment still can't guarantee to win the La Liga title, right? Because the gap in points is very close to Real Madrid, at least Barcelona still can't guarantee to win the La Liga title this season.
Therefore, whatever tournament Barceoa is currently part of, of course it will be an important tournament for Barcelona.

Maybe the main goal is not to chase income or profits and or bonuses that will be obtained, but they must realize that as a big team, Barcelona should be able to win a title from one of the existing tournaments this season.
If later Barcelona won the La Liga title and can also maximize to win the Europa League title, then of course that would be very good, right. There's nothing wrong with or a low prestige to get a title, because when they do get the title they will be respected of course and that will have a good impact on the team as well.

Is it possible that it was a form of indirect approach so that Ronaldo was recruited again by Real Madrid, or was it purely just to practice without having high hopes of being able to enter the Real Madrid main squad. Because, if it was Ronaldo's intention to train there expecting to be recruited again by Real Madrid, then I think how unfortunate it is for a legendary player to use this method just to be able to play again in the Champions League.
But I think it's just to maintain Ronaldo's fitness by continuing to practice, considering that at this time Ronaldo is not bound by a contract to any club.

But yeah, let's see what happens, because usually when legends go back to their old clubs at least they have some plans but not to become players.
Because a legendary player like Zidane himself returned to Real Madrid not as a player but only as part or one of the board, until finally becoming head coach. But for Ronaldo who is still ambitious to play, then maybe this will be something different later.

There are no players who are tired due to the effects of the World Cup for matches in the Champions League, because the Champions League matches will just start again in the middle of the 2nd month of next year. There are at least two months after the World Cup to get to the Champions League matches, unless you consider the continuation in the local leagues then of course they get very little down time especially regarding the Premier League.
So, in this case I don't think there is a team with players who are tired because of the effects of the World Cup even though it's the Premier League.

Because basically every team has players who don't only come from France and Argentina, because they still have other players who of course can play too.
Also, the clubs now of course have a good recovery method and also they are used to a hectic schedule. So I think there's no problem about their fitness if they have proper recovery method.

In the end, the surprise team will play against the surprise team to fight for third place, of course this will be a very interesting match. Because considering Croatia and Morocco, who only played defensively before, which team will continue to play defensively in tomorrow's final match to fight for third place.
But I think it looks like Morocco will continue to play defensively and Croatia will press more but maybe vice versa, or maybe both of them will play more loosely or openly and be more aggressive to score goals first.

Croatia and Morocco both lost at half time when they matched yesterday in the semifinals, so I think maybe at this moment they have the same quality and or opportunity. Therefore, the odds for them are equally high because they seem to have similar qualities.
Therefore, maybe I will still go with Morocco and even though Croatia has a better chance of winning, maybe I will try something different because I will bet on Morocco's win.

But if PSG this season might be able to get to the Champions League final match, then I'm sure Mbappe will stay at PSG. Because moving to Real Madrid too I think the competition in La Liga is the same, because Real Madrid is also always the favorite and it's the same situation with PSG in Ligue 1.
Although indeed, in La Liga there are opponents who at least have the same quality as Barcelona. Meanwhile, at this moment for PSG in Ligue 1, even though sometimes PSG also only gets draws and also loses, in the end PSG will still be at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

The situation is at least the same as Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga and therefore, if Mbappe can take PSG further in the Champions League then I'm pretty sure Mbappe will stay at PSG maybe for a longer time.
Because the benchmark right now is only about the Champions League, because their target of being strong in the local league has at least been achieved. Also, if Mbappe can lead PSG to win the Champions League title too then it is very possible for Mbappe to get the Ballon d'Or and therefore, basically the potential for achievement for Mbappe at PSG is very big if he can get many top achievements.

Eras have changed and we cannot generalize the Alex Ferguson era in the past and the current era, so I personally really don't believe that for example Alex Ferguson returning to train will be able to produce good results. Because on the contrary, I believe that if Alex Ferguson returns to coaching then the result will probably be the same as what Manchester United is getting now, this can be considered the same as old players and new players.
When the era has changed, the old will be replaced by the new and therefore, there will always be a time or moment for them to get their golden period and then their golden moment runs out.

So, by constantly changing coaches that Manchester United did, it was basically the right way and you can see how Mourinho coached Manchester United. Even though in reality Mourinho has the nickname the special one but what happened was a failure.
Thus, I think it's clear that they have good moments and there are times when their good moments will end over time and at least it becomes a self-awareness that they must also realize.

Napoli and Inter are the strongest teams in Serie A and even though Inter seem to be of better quality than in previous seasons, the reality is that Inter have never had it easy to beat Napoli either. What's more, this season Napoli's performance is better than Inter so that indeed, Napoli will be the team that is more favored to win.
But the thing that must be remembered at least is that they will not get victory in an easy way, because beating a big team in an away match is also not something easy.

Therefore, if any of them say Inter or Napoli will win easily then that is an assumption which I think will be dangerous or regretful if the results don't go as expected.
But if they say that after the match is over then maybe it doesn't matter because they have also seen the final result and indeed, everyone has their own judgment but still, if it's a big match then neither team can be said or assumed to win easily.

But if the team still doesn't get the right replacement then at least they will still use old players but yes, it will be different if the old player is injured then the team can only accept reality and start to put faith in the players who come off the bench. Manuel Neuer himself is not only an old player at Bayern Munich but he is also the team captain and also a team legend, so it will indeed be difficult for Bayern Munich to find the right replacement for him.
However, I'm sure Bayern Munich will definitely have the right way to solve this problem, because for competition in the Bundesliga at least they will still be fine with the other goalkeepers they have.

But it seems that Bayern Munich are also just now entering another young player for the goalkeeper position, it is clear that Bayern Munich are very serious about regenerating their goalkeeper.
If they can do well for the Champions League as well then surely it will be great for Bayern Munich to get talented players from the young squad they have.

Against Inter you still won't be able to win easily because even if the opponent is a mediocre team but at least the favorite team will still need a big effort. What's more, this is Inter who will play at home, they even said before that Napoli and Inter are of the same level and therefore, to win a match in a match like this will never be easy for them.
How can you be sure that with the same level of teams but one of these teams will win easily, whether it is a belief that has a solid foundation, or just something based solely on being a fan.

Because if you are a Napoli fan then of course you will easily choose Napoli to win, but if you are neutral then you will still need high consideration and not underestimate your opponent.
Because we also don't know what kind of squad changes will happen after the transfer market, because if the changes in their squad are big enough then of course it will have a significant impact on their performance too.
