In two consecutive seasons Dortmund has lost two of their biggest starts in Sancho and Erling Halland, this isn’t good act from a team hoping to compete with Bayern Munich for the German Bundes liga come next season, while few of Bayern starts has left or expected to leave they are adding fresh legs of which most noticeable is the signing of Sadio Mane to the team, I believe mane is up there with the best footballers in the world and is a great power boost for the German giants.
It's just that Borussia Dortmund has a different strategy and the club does not have enough money to keep promising players who appear with enviable regularity in the club. This is not a long-term strategy of Bayern Munich, which buys strong players from all over the world to strengthen its squad and the best players in Germany who could not buy foreign clubs rich. All this strengthens Bayern Munich and at the same time weakens rival clubs, which allows Bayern to win the Bundesliga for 10 years in a row. All that remains for Borussia Dortmund is to wait patiently for their chance. As Borussia CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke recently put it, Bayern will start to decline at some point in the next few years. However, I personally am not sure, Borussia Dortmund will be exactly the club that will be able to take advantage of this decline and win the Bundesliga.

Firstly, a lot depends on how the government of this country itself treats cryptocurrencies themselves and, accordingly, the attitude towards investing in cryptocurrencies becomes clear. If the state sets clear rules in this area and does not try to regulate this area too much, then, accordingly, citizens' investments in cryptocurrency should benefit the state's economy. In extreme cases, the benefit may be that cryptocurrencies help to withdraw and dispose of the economy and dispose of an excessive amount of money printed by the state, which can accelerate inflation and reduce the standard of living of citizens.

The current situation in the world turned out to be an excellent litmus test that shows the real value of cryptocurrencies. Namely - none! It would seem that the world is plunging into a severe financial, political, and economic crisis, and capital must be hidden in a "quiet stable harbor", which used to be cryptocurrency. Today, with the inflation of influential currencies, we see an outflow of investment and speculative funds from the cryptocurrency market. And this means distrust of this asset, in a really difficult situation. Here's the answer Smiley
Actually, this is the strength and weakness of bitcoin, that it is not secured by anything and is valuable in itself. Everything is not so clear. Yes, in the current conditions, thanks to the actions of large investors, there is an outflow from all risky assets, to which, except for the stock market, these investors include cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and especially other cryptocurrencies have never been treated as a safe haven by these major players, they have completely different ideas about a safe haven that have been formed for decades and even centuries. Therefore, so far bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been trapped by the ideas that are imposed by major players. A change in their consciousness may be happening, but this process is quite long. Another question is what will happen next when, let's say, all those players who consider cryptocurrencies a speculative asset have left, and the share of those players who remained in the asset and consider bitcoin a protective asset increases... The question is at what level of bitcoin prices these investors will begin to prevail...
584  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it possible that all cryptocurrency will become regulated? on: July 01, 2022, 08:55:53 PM
Regulation does not necessarily mean tracking at all, tracking is more about control. The whole question is the degree of regulation, because cryptocurrencies were created as decentralized mechanisms that do not have the generic problems that are inherent in centralized mechanisms. In any case, if cryptocurrencies are increasingly integrated into the traditional economy, then regulation in this area by the state cannot be avoided, especially when it comes to such a sensitive topic as pension savings. Nevertheless, a person is very vulnerable in old age in terms of earnings and can no longer start from scratch in case of failure, so it is necessary to act with repeated caution with investments of such a plan in such risky areas as cryptocurrencies. I am not sure that the state should encourage direct investments of pension funds directly into cryptocurrencies and should limit itself to derivative financial instruments related to cryptocurrencies such as ETFs or shares of mutual funds.

The Laliga league next season is going to be difficult for players that are not typically sturdy in their appearance. The competition would be a massive one for teams and players, so the ones that are out of form are definitely going to try their best to be in their good form and a better shape. Teams managers will not welcome Fatigue players and those set of players will lack playing time on the pitch and sometimes will be kept on the bench for quite for a long time. The players who are injured will be preparing for preseason games and get their body movement back in pretty shape and be set for essential tasks and achievements.
Unless ATM and Sevilla will strength their squad, the competition will be between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Sevilla require a solid attack line and ATM should improve its tactics. Barcelona isn't the same as the previous years and it is unlikely for them to start as bad as before, so Real Madrid should expect a high challenge level and every point will count.
Well, I think that still Atletico Madrid should play better this season and compete seriously with both Real Madrid and Barcelona. At least even this version of the team composition should allow you to do this. Moreover, there is information that Atletico has activated the option of a lease agreement with Barcelona about Griezmann for another season and will now be obliged to buy a football player after reaching participation in 50 percent of the team's matches in the championship. Also, as far as I understand, Alvaro Morata's lease agreement with Juventus has ended and the player is returning to Atletico Madrid. I wonder if Diego Simeone sees him in the team, because I think such a player would not be superfluous.

I admit that Olivier Giroud's contribution was enormous for AC Milan, Giroud has scored many important goals for AC Milan this season and helped AC Milan win the Serie A trophy. So it is very feasible for Giroud to get a new contract if next season Giroud can still make a good contribution to AC Milan. But I'm not sure if there are other European teams who are still interested in Giroud even though his performances with AC Milan are
quite good. So if Giroud's contract is not extended by AC Milan next season, there is a possibility that Giroud will retire, because he will be 36 years old next year. Therefore, AC Milan brought Divock Origi in preparation as a replacement for Giroud, whose contract will expire next season. Because I doubt Giroud can be like Ibrahimovic who can play until he is 40 years old.
Why, I have no doubt that Giroud will still be able to find another team in any case if he leaves Milan. Another question is on what conditions it will be done and in which club and which championship, and therefore I think that the option with Milan is optimal for both the player and the club itself. Giroud fits perfectly into both the championship itself and the style of play that Stefano Pioli preaches. If only health would allow and there would be a desire to continue his career, yet at this age it is no longer worth looking too far and indeed one season is an excellent horizon for planning.

As far as i know Lewandowski is earning around 25 Million € per year at the moment at Bayern Munich. This is one of the top salaries in Europe and i think it was already pretty generous from Bayern to offer Lewandowski a new contract with the same salary again. In the end we also have to put into account that covid took a heavy hit on the financial income of all clubs including Bayern. To demand a pay raise even under those circumstances is pretty outrageous in my opinion. Today i read the news that bayern declined another offer of Barcelona which had 40 Million € as immediate transfer fee plus 10 Million € of possible bonuses. I think if Barcelona is offering 50 Million € without any bonuses then Bayern will agree. At least i hope that.
I don't see anything outrageous in this, given the age of the player, it's just that the player wants to convert his titles of The Best FIFA Men’s Player 2020, 2021 into something more tangible in material terms. Especially if there are teams that are willing to pay the amount requested by the player despite the coronavirus. Still, it is not a fact that it will be possible to do this in a year, when the contract expires. The most important thing is that Bayern does not get into a pose and still allows the player to try himself in another championship, especially since it's not all for free. At least, there is information that Barcelona asked Lewandowski and Silva to wait a few weeks while the club is looking for the necessary money and Robert hopes to solve everything within two weeks.

The United's have not being qualified for the Champions League has being fully confirmed that Ronaldo may want to leave because His agent Jorge Mendes who met Chelsea's new co-owner named Todd Boehly last week which on there meeting, Ronaldo was mentioned, which the new United manager Erik ten Hag has just renounced that Ronaldo is fully part of his future plans. the baller in question "Christiano Ronaldo" just went back to the United last summer, after 12 years he left the football club for Real Madrid, which he performed excellently by scoring 24 goals in 38 just matches he played which he finished as the club's top Goal scorer in all competitions they went On.
By the way, the option with Chelsea would be the best option for Ronaldo in general of all the available options. And so it turns out that Todd Boeli's meeting with the footballer's agent Jorge Mendes had quite specific goals. In favor of this can be the factor that it would be a great advertisement for the new owners of the team and would show everyone the seriousness of their intentions. Another question is how the fans of MU will react to this, that Ronaldo, who was one of the few bright spots in the generally dull team of last season, will undoubtedly strengthen the composition of competitors with his transition. Also, the position of the new head coach of MU ten Hag on this issue is not fully understood, and if in some rumors, he does not see Ronaldo as part of his team being built, then according to other rumors, on the contrary, he wants to offer Cristiano the post of team captain.
589  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: June 30, 2022, 10:25:37 PM
Man United actually has a big squad, they have many players in any position. They only need a change in the midfield line, they need a replacement for Pogba. So, they focus to sign Frenkie De Jong as the main target in this transfer window. I think Ten Hag feels satisfied with his current squad, he doesn't want to have many new players. I don't know whether this decision is the best way or not, let's see what Man United performance next season.
In my opinion, in addition to buying new players for Manchester United, a lot will also depend on whether Cristiano Ronaldo stays at the club. In recent days, rumors have intensified that Roma and Jose Mourinho personally would like to see Ronaldo in their squad and it seems that Jose asked the bosses to sign the player. Personally, I am quite skeptical about this transfer both in terms of the game and in practical terms, yet Ronaldo is still an expensive player for a club like Roma. Still, I don't see much point for Ronaldo to return to Italy, to a club that doesn't even take part in the Champions League, so dear to Cristiano's heart, this season. In principle, you can just as well play in the Europa League and in the MU. It also seems that Ronaldo's services were offered to Inter, but the club was confused by Ronaldo's high salary, plus the club bet on Lukaku's return.

I don't even want to fantasize about this because it's beyond my imagination lol. Now De Jong I feel it is almost certain to be a United player for next season especially there are some rumors saying that now the parties from Barcelona and Manchester United are in the final stages and finalizing all the documents needed to complete the transfer. Ronaldo I still hope he will still wear the Manchester United jersey for at least one more season.
By the way, there is information that another reason why Barcelona wanted to sell de Jong to Manchester United, in addition to a large sum for the transfer itself, is that in the coming season, under the terms of the contract, Barcelona should significantly increase the salary of a football player. So the benefit for Barcelona may be double, about 85 million with bonuses for the transfer itself, plus there will be no increase in the load on the team's payroll. There is also information that de Jong himself told both clubs that he does not like that both sides insist on his departure from Barcelona.

What you say makes a lot of sense, without Lukaku Inter were close to winning the Serie A trophy this season. Moreover, now that it has succeeded in bringing home Lukaku, it is certain that Inter's chances are even greater for next season to win the Serie A trophy. And also Lukaku has played successfully with Inter before deciding to move to Chelsea, so for Lukaku there is no need to adapt again to Inter. But of course it won't be
easy for Inter to win the Scudetto next season. Moreover, other Serie A teams also strengthened their squad. As Juventus and AC Milan are reportedly very active in this year's transfer market, so Inter still have to be careful and don't be too over confident about winning the Serie A trophy. What is certain is that the competition in the Serie A will be more interesting with several Serie A teams getting new players, so it is more difficult
to predict the winner of the Serie A trophy next season.
Let's not forget who Lukaku was so revealed in Inter, who held the post of head coach in the team. Of course, I mean Antonio Conte, who picked up the keys to this player. I do not deny the talent of the player himself, but still we can see perfectly well that Lukaku almost did not work out at Chelsea and the relationship with the head coach played an important role in this. It is significant that, according to journalist Nizar Kinsella, Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel joked during the match with Tottenham, telling Lukaku and pointing towards Conte, like "there's your daddy."

Angel di Maria has agreed personal terms with Juventus and now both teams are working on a deal for him. Interesting to see what sort of role he gets into with Juve.
Angel Di Maria is 34 years old. And with this deal, he can make the last deal of his career. Frankly, I don't believe he can be useful for Juventus. Because he could not find many opportunities at PSG. But Juventus may want to include him as a good substitute. Because he is an experienced football player.
Di Maria does have a fairly old age but that will not let his spirits down because so far in several matches it has been seen that Di Maria has a very good performance and can contribute a lot to Juventus even though he is only a substitute, this shows that Di Maria can still be scored when he was given the chance.
I do not see anything terrible in signing a contract with di Maria, because in his playing role it is not necessary to rush at breakneck speed the whole match and then take completely different qualities. As far as I understand, we are talking about a contract for only one season and I have confidence that the player has the necessary health and fitness to adequately prove himself in the team and adequately fulfill his contract. If the parties remain satisfied with each other, Juventus can activate the option to extend the agreement for the next season.

I've also heard about the rumours regarding Cristiano Ronaldo to join Bayern Munich in this summer. However, I don't expect this to be more than a rumour in the coming days. Because I'm feeling like Ronaldo will decide to stay and play for Manchester United one more season. For Bayern Munich, it would be nice to bring Ronaldo to Lewandowski's place I guess. Their priority now is to keep Lewandowski of course. They have signed Mane also but I don't know if they are thinking him for that position in that situation.
Hasn't this been directly denied by Bayern's management? This is only an issue, nothing more than that, I think, there is a lot of news like this, but when there is a direct objection from one of the parties concerned, I don't think this is going to happen, even though news always appears to heat up the atmosphere in the transfer season.
The thing is it doesn't seem like Cristiano Ronaldo wants to stay in Manchester United. but at the same time, it does not feel like he wants to move as well. so he is in a confusing situation right now and a lot of online media is trying to make the best out of this situation by making interesting news.
As I said before, even if Ronaldo still does not leave Manchester United, then all the same rumors about his departure will be thrown into the press until the very first official matches. As far as I understand, Bayern Munich refused a potential transfer of Ronaldo in order not to destroy the structure of the payroll. By the way, in theory, it seems that Bayern Munich was not the initiator of such an interest, but simply Ronaldo's agent offered the services of his client. The management of the club from Munich was in some confusion from such an offer and, after some thought, still politely refused. There is information that it seems that the head coach of MU ten Hag generally wants to meet with Ronaldo and offer Ronaldo the post of team captain instead of Maguire.

I'm still wondering what is keeping the transfer to not have become a done deal by now. Leowandoski is a good product for Barca , with him in the front I think we might see a comeback Barca interms of scoring goals and winning games ,So Barcelona should deep hands into their pocket and make payment to meet up with every necessary requirements needed to land the player in Camp Nou.
I think that in this case, not everything depends on Barcelona. Barcelona, if it could, would have paid the required amount long ago, but it is necessary to take into account not only the difficult financial condition, but also the rules of financial fair play. In my humble opinion, the key to Lewandowski's transfer to Barcelona is hidden in another deal, namely the transfer of de Jong to Manchester United. If the clubs can agree on a deal, then a deal with Lewandowski is very likely to take place. The only thing is that Barcelona does not need to overdo it with the asking price, trying to solve all its problems at once with one transfer, otherwise it will be possible to scare off buyers from Manchester.
595  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: June 26, 2022, 11:55:09 PM
I don't think that Barcelona should go for Luis Suarez now. He is very old now and he hasn't performed like Benzema in last season also. He scored a really low amount of goals in the La Liga. Barcelona need a solid centre-forward like Lewandowski now. I wouldn't expect Suarez to bring back his old times with Barcelona now. I mean they might go for him only if they fail in bringing Lewandowski or a top striker like him. But rather than going for him they can sign a player for a different position.
Suarez appearance is no longer productive, plus Lewandowski has never been able to be withdrawn by Barcelona to the club due to the detention by Bayern Munich who insisted on trying to maintain his position. Now Barcelona doesn't have much choice if in the end, they have to use the remaining players and not take the initiative of other players. Financial conditions are still not supportive and it is certain to be an option not to spend large amounts of money.
Suarez's performance can't be forced now. His old age and his declining productivity, especially due to an injury last season when he was at Atletico became one of the considerations that must be seen.
Suarez will not be able to compete with a fairly busy schedule and with Barcelona's current style of play. I would prefer if they were still there for Lewandowski but if they still can't then they have to look for someone younger but not for Suarez.
As far as I understand, Suarez's contract with Atletico expires on June 30 and therefore no club will need to buy Suarez and the player can move to any club as a free agent. Also, as far as I know, Barcelona has already contacted Suarez about potential cooperation, but warned that he is a backup option and asked to wait until August, because now the main goal for Barcelona is to sign Lewandowski. Suarez thanked him for this offer, but still refused to wait, because then he would lose the opportunity to move to other clubs that claim him. So I think Suarez's return to Barcelona is unlikely.

Manchester United will definitely improve in next season because their new manager has promised the fans that he will do everything within his power to make the team great again by giving the players new tactics that will sustain them through out the season. I think the manager will prepare their defense and midfield very well because that is the main challenges Manchester United are facing currently which the new manager will fix it well in next season. 
I hope so too, because Manchester United's previous season is difficult to bring to their asset and the club took a step back instead of a step forward, so changes are definitely needed. On the other hand, there is always a certain risk in the arrival of a new head coach and usually it takes a certain time for the coach to convey his ideas to the players and rebuild the game in the right direction. And it is not a fact that this will happen quickly enough and will not last for a whole season. Therefore, I think that ten Hag will undoubtedly be able to make changes to the team's game, but it is not a fact that this will be enough at least to get into the Champions League.

I would pick pochettino over Galtier and they are switching these two for some reason. Can't they just get another manager? Isn't there one that they could afford to get and be better than Galtier? Are there any free agent managers out there this year?
I also sincerely wonder why the Paris Saint-Germain leadership wants to replace Pochettino with Galtier's candidacy, then it would be better to leave Pochettino in this post for now. Undoubtedly, the shadow of Zinedine Zidane will hang over any coach who dares to lead a club like Paris Saint-Germain in any case. By the way, a strange situation has now been organized that concerns the coaching positions of two clubs at once. Lucien Favre is unable to start working with Nice due to the fact that Galtier has not yet left the club. And Galtier cannot come to Paris Saint-Germain as head coach due to the fact that Pochettino and the club's management cannot agree on the amount of compensation for the termination of the contract. PSG, which finds tens and hundreds of millions to sign new coaches and players and extend existing players, is sparing money and does not want to pay the full amount due to Pochettino for breaking the contract.

Ferrari still has a lot of work to do. In fact, Red Bull of the top teams only seems to have its affairs in order now. Mercedes was disappointing at the start of the season and is still disappointing. Every race they should be happy if they fall into the points, and Hamilton will be happy if he can be on the podium with a 3rd place. That was different in recent years, of course. I don't see Mercedes solving this problem just like that. The gap to Red Bull and Ferrari is huge at the moment. Leclerc will be very disappointed with his retirements.
I would like to make a big mistake, but I think that only Ferrari in the person of Leclerc can still impose a fight on Red Bull in the person of Max Verstappen for the Formula 1 champion title. Just for this, Ferrari needs to solve problems with the reliability of its car and it seems that there is still time for this, even if not so much and coming the races will be decisive in this sense. Still, in general, losing points due to a car going off the track in the middle of the season due to ongoing problems with engine reliability is not the case, in theory, it's time now to simply eliminate minor roughness. By the way, Ferrari's F1 client cars also have reliability problems. I also think that Mercedes is able to solve problems with its cars and claim podiums and even victories in the remaining races, but I agree with the team leader Toto Wolff that the train has already left and there is no chance of winning the championship anymore.

When did all of this Ronaldo deal started? I mean I knew that he wasn't happy with his team, but when did we get from "he is not happy at United" to " it is a done deal, he is 100% leaving, only thing left is deciding on which club" levels? I missed that part honestly, I have always assumed that he was displeased with the team and he would leave if he could find the chance or maybe he won't leave but I never considered it a done deal anywhere at all. Wish he would go to PSG, I know they have a ton of players already upfront, but him with Mbappe upfront, Messi at right, and Neymar at left wing, that four would be just death to any team in the world, would need a good team backing them behind those positions of course, but these four could score 5 goals each game with ease. Would be amazing to watch them and would be definitely not out of PSG's paygrade, they have that kind of money to spend for sure. And we would see Messi and Ronaldo on the same team which would be legendary story to tell in the future.
I think that even if Ronaldo does not leave for another team and stays at Manchester United, there will still be talk about it until the transfer window closes and the start of the new championship. The option of Cristiano moving to Paris Saint-Germain may be quite feasible, but not personally, I don't think Ronaldo will be able to play together with Neymar. Now there is information that Neymar's relationship with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has deteriorated and the player wants to leave the club and the club will not interfere much with this at a normal transfer price. Just in this case, PSG will have more opportunities and interest to sign a contract with Ronaldo.

I really don't think that spending all that money on a player who is 34 years old is going to be a good decision. Especially when they really need the money. Just think about this, getting this player obviously is going to get them better results but does it ensure them the La Liga title or maybe the Champions League title? I don't think so and in my opinion, they are going to have a good result even without this player. Maybe if they don't get this player they will finish 4th and if they do get him they will finish second or third.
Actually, I think that the Barcelona management and Xavi Hernandez himself are realists and understand perfectly well that signing one player, even at the level of Robert Lewandowski, will not automatically bring the title of the winner of La Liga and the tutul of the winner of the Champions League. I do not agree that Lewandowski will not benefit the club, because in my opinion the style of the Spanish championship should suit the striker and he should painlessly join the Barcelona squad. I also think that Lewandowski will bring more stability to the team composition and results precisely because of his age and experience. Another question, there are certain doubts about the funds spent precisely because of the plight of Barcelona.
