There's a news if Leeds United could sack Javi Garcia, if he get sacked, then the top canditate is Sam Allardyce who's currently managing West Bromwich Albion. Leeds United is almost entering degradation zone, so this is might the reason why Leeds want to sack Garcia. But a small club like Leeds has a limited money, the coach will not have a chance to buy a star players, it's a complicated problem for small club.
Leeds do not need a lot of money, they have always been a small club but they managed to stay at premier league so far since their return and that is exactly what they need. If they keep staying here, there are two things that is happening, first of all their players worth a lot more, when you are in premier league, the players you own valued a lot higher, so if you can find even a few young players then you can sell them for 20-30 million easily, most teams are willing to pay that much, and you could cover all the expenses suddenly, if you can find a star level one and sell for 80 million?

This does happen even if rarely, then you will cover a few seasons. Then you start to get a lot better and make sure you stay. For that, they need consistency, staying in the league for 5-6 years in a row is enough, after that it becomes easier to stay.
62  Economy / Speculation / Re: Month of May. Bitcoin price guess on: May 02, 2023, 04:29:43 PM
This is according to what I am hearing, that bitcoin rise from as low as less than $4000 to almost $14000 in 2019, that the highest price bitcoin might increase to this time may not reach $40000 because all-time-high is $69000. We are still around $30000, that bitcoin may increase up to almost $40000

Let us continue the fun of monthly price guess. What did you think will be bitcoin highest price in May?
In 2021 Bitcoin price came down again from the all time high to $16000 and about 1 year Bitcoin price was staying at $20k. From that position Bitcoin started to turn bullish again. Bitcoin behaved very positively in the month of March and April. Investors' confidence has also been increasing tremendously in recent times. As a result, we will gradually see the Bitcoin rumble, and I will consider this May as an important month Bitcoin. Because Bitcoin has the potential to gain 25 percent within this month from its current price. As such, I think Bitcoin price may rise to $35k by this month may.
The last quarter or the final months of 2021 is bullish. The price only fell down in 2022 which is normal because a bull is usually followed by a bear. On this year, the bear is now starting to wear off because we are seeing an increase that we don't witness last year. It's the first three months, that triggers this increase but the fourth one (April) is a little gloomy so many are in doubts that the month of May will be the same.

Each month is important whatever the price is, because people will just buy or sell but there are some who will wait for the best selling or buying point. On this new month of May, I think the price will get back on $30k but I don't expect for a $35k.

I exactly think the same way about allowing these countries to host great tournaments, that's simple they don't have enough facilities and that's not a wise move to let a country without enough facilities host the world cup because there will be consequences even after hosting the world cup, many people are unhappy about the time they spent in Qatar.
That never really mattered to them at all. Qatar is seen "fine" by the west because they can get love from them, Qatar may act as if they do like western people or at least the ones at the top could, but in theory there is really nothing that different fundamentally between Qatar and North Korea, sure the media will make you believe there is, but this is the same nation that thousands of people died to build these stadiums and other stuff so they can host World Cup.

The only thing Fifa cares about is money, if you pay them the bribe you should, then you are going to have the world cup. I am sure North Korea could pay a lot and still won't have it, but they do not really care about anything else, they just care about the money. Saudi Arabia is not democracy for example, they have nepotism and dictatorship, so one family rules it with iron fist, no elections, and if they pay the bribe, they can host it too.

There are rumors of all Chelsea players taking a 30% pay cut since they won't be having a spot at the champions league next season and this I think will be among the major reason many players will be leaving the club next season. Football in this modern ages is all about money and no players really carries that love for the club narrative anymore because the club can always fail you at anytime, take a look at the situation with Mason mount, he's a grassroots Chelsea blood but the club doesn't care since he isn't accepting their offer. Same thing can happen to anyone, gone are the days why players had an advantage if they put the club first, now they have to put themselves.
If that happens it will definitely cause more harm than good, the tension surrounding the club is increasing and it’s affecting their performance on the pitch. I wouldn't advice they cut the players salary but we'll see how much good this policy can bring to the club and the effect either positive or negative. I fear a lot might go wrong if this is implemented, so much is disorganized already and wouldn't be good to make it worse.
There is no "if" it happens, if it is on their clause then it will happen. The players that have no contract can leave, but the ones that still have a contract can either force a sale, or they need to just shut up and play, if they don't then it is going to hurt a lot.

It is not going to be easy obviously, it is going to take a while but the reality is that we should not be considering players who do not play for the team due to salary issue would get any minutes and their value would drop and they won't make any good salary improvements after that. If you drop from 10 million a year to 7 million a year and stop playing, you won't even get the 7 million in a year, nobody will pay you that. This is why they need to accept this and just keep playing and win in order to grow.

I don't have any suggestions of coins in mind but I believe there will be many coins that'll do well immediately the bull market starts. Alot of investors are waiting on the side to get a green signal that the market is back and usually the influencers are those they rely on for this kind of news and immediately that starts happenings, you'll begin to see money entering the market
Alot of project both good and bad ones will benefit as they usually do during the bull market. I'm confident that altcoins will do well because not everyone would want to buy Bitcoin that they know can't give them much profits but many people investing wants to make money quick so they'll go for altcoins. To profits we have to be among early investors.
I think coins in the top 20 should be given much attention for security purposes and they can also give good returns as if you invest when the market is down, you'll be among the earliest investors and can profit when the whole market rise.
That is a risk to take though, I mean if you take "any" coin you want to wait for the bull, then the result will not be that easy and could end up with a bit of a trouble. But if you end up with nothing at all, or just a regular situation then you will probably end up with a good return without a doubt. I hope that it will get a lot better but I believe that it may not be easy if you just pick randomly.

Buy the top names and you should be getting a lot better though, I have bitcoin, ethereum, bnb, ltc, ada and so forth which means that I feel more comfortable because I invested into things that we are already aware of and enjoy, this means that it will be a lot easier to just focus on what we can do with what we know, and ignore the risks of unknown.
66  Economy / Economics / Re: Methods to cut food costs on: May 01, 2023, 03:29:32 PM
Is it just seasons and distribution that raises prices? I think you're kidding. My country is an agricultural country and inflation is over 100% right now. People can't eat properly and are the seasons to blame? Get out of there. If there is only one reason for this, it is the government that does not implement proper agricultural policy. It is also the agricultural land of the people granted to global agricultural companies.
Food costs being high and being an agricultural country both has a reason and also irrelevant. The main issue is that you do not go to the farm and buy it directly, you end up buying it from Walmart or whatever you have that is close to Walmart, a big grocery store that exists everywhere basically. This means, between the farmer using gas to use their tractors, then the truck that goes to each farmer, fills it up, goes to warehouse of the Walmart of your nation, then goes to each different store, these are all gas used, and that's just gas, and if the gas prices high, then it is not going to be cheap.

Aside from that farmer needs to make a profit, and Walmart needs to pay the salary of the truck driver, the warehouse worker the grocery store worker, all of that is profit on top of that. When you calculate these all, if your nation has high inflation, then even a very cheap food will become expensive by the time you buy it. Go buy directly from the farmer and you will pay 50% less.

Investing is not just about having good financial backup, investment knowledge, financial backup, risk taking, patience, market analysis, etc. are all necessary to invest. A person with good financial backup but no investment knowledge will not be able to do much in the field of investment. And that's why I said to be patient because many times it is seen that after investing, the invested money loses some amount, as a result of which there are many new investors who cannot accept the losses, so they are forced to sell their investments.
Our main objective of investing is to earn some profit from the investment but if we sell our investments due to some temporary loss then we will never see the profit.
I agree, having all of those together does result with a much better profit and that should be something that is provably a better deal. I believe that the best thing to do right now is to make sure that we can't really end up with ignorant moves.

There are many people who make moves that are ignorant because they do not check the data behind it and even if they try to, they do not know what that data represents. So that is why it is important to make sure that you invest at the right time to the right thing by knowing what you are investing into and why you are investing into it. There are a lot of stuff that you can study, and there are a lot of websites that helps you study it as well, so it shouldn't really be an issue for anyone to learn to be better.

Manchester City team will try hard this time to confirm the match in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Because Manchester City could not secure the Champions League title for the past few seasons. However, Manchester City knows that victory will not be guaranteed easily with the Real Madrid team, so they will use different strategies.
Several times Manchester City have tried and several times they failed to win the Champions League, now the opportunity has come again to them, and the opportunity is even bigger now that Real Madrid have not been doing so well this season. Of course they can't make the same mistakes as last season, where they failed to beat Real Madrid because they lost concentration in the final minutes, or rather their mentality dropped dramatically at that time. Now they must be better.
To be fair the previous times they didn't had Haaland with them, and now they do. You may think how much one player can make a difference on a team that already won so much, but the reality is that their goal scoring was always based on a team play, they all played very well and they all scored and they were all great, now? Now they are more like Haaland is the top scorer, they do have a target man and they can just pass him the ball and take defense a bit more seriously.

The difference is that when you don't have Haaland, you need to attack as a team which leaves defense a bit weak, but when you have Haaland he can help you score even all by himself at times and you may have 8 players on your own half when Haaland took the ball and just scored, look at how they beat Bayern and how Haaland just took Upamecano for a ride.

I don't see how this run is going to be sustained, there are so many uncertainties in the world presently, and as we can see people have started cutting their expenses. One of the features of a bull market is free money and it is becoming hard to come about it. With the look of things I feel the economic outlook will start to get better in Q4 with the US election coming next year plus Bitcoin halving next year, I will say the bull market will likely start in November this year, every of my trade now is still a short term play, then I will start to look for long term play
I think those could be as good of a reason to make it go up as it could be a down. We all remember how pandemic was a bad thing right? I mean millions and millions of people died because of it, how could it be good, or even just the sick people who survived but had bad periods?

Those are in over hundred million level, we already have just 7-8 billion people, how could we consider a pandemic that hurt over 100 million people, and more than that, over a billion with families that got hurt, and nearly every single person with economical trouble, it was one of the worst things that ever happened. However, when you start to look at bitcoin price at the same period? That looks like a bad thing that made bitcoin price skyrocket like crazy at the same time. So, you would never know.
70  Economy / Economics / Re: Concers About Going in Business with a Friend on: April 30, 2023, 05:21:51 PM
And sometimes it is also very difficult to know the true nature of our business partners, because the business partners we trust can also hide their true nature in front of us in order to achieve goals that have never been told directly to us. So betrayal always begins with mutual trust so that there is no suspicion at all before it happens to an ongoing business.

I prefer to run my own business without having to involve more people in it. And even if I have to use several people who I will pay as employees in my business, I also will not allow them to fully manage finances so that there will be no betrayal in the future. Because of the many betrayals that occur, it always starts with money, not from anything else.
It is not even hiding at times, it is just not being able to know that it exists. Like if you never started your own business before, but start it with your friend, maybe you will learn about yourself too? Maybe you are too timely and anyone who is late bothers you, maybe you are too hardworking and that is not matched with others, you may think you know yourself but how much could you even know about yourself without first testing and seeing how you are.

This is why I feel like it is not going to be hiding, sometimes it is unearthing that feeling. This is why two people starting a business could mean that they could have a much better response, or it could mean that it will end up being terrible as well, we would never know how it could go.

Leclerc is probably the best driver in this F1 for the single lap time attack in qualify, better than Hamilton and Verstapper for sure.
I agree with this statement but the problem is that most drivers that are and were World Champions their strength were not a single lap but being consistently fast throughout the race,we have Senna a legend of F1 in which beside having a lot of pole positions he was blazing fast through the races and Donnington 1993 first lap I recommend anyone to check it on Youtube to see him blazing from 6th to first by overtaking the riders through the lap.

I think if Leclerc keeps improving himself to do faster laps throughout the race can have real chances even this season which looks already in Redbull hands to open it up again and we would all love this.
I agree that Hamilton had the best car in the league for a very long time and he benefited from that without a doubt. However, we should also not forget that he beat his teammates almost every season, dude has 100+ pole positions so far, a feat that nobody else achieved I think.

Charles is great, but I think he is not the best, I would even put George Russel ahead, we may have seen him do terrible at Baku this weekend, but so far he has beaten even Hamilton all season and back when he was at Williams he was called "mr.saturday" for a reason, worst car or second worst car, and he would go to Q2 very frequently, that is not easy to achieve. This is why I believe that Charles is probably either 3rd or 4th best one, I would put Max ahead of him as well, but that could be argued that's true.

The Russian auto industry is LADA, UAZ, KAMAZ and other brands. Has their production stopped?
European brands closed factories, and Korean and Chinese manufacturers took their place.
Look at how many large pharmaceutical companies there are in Russia, you know how to use the search.
There are basic technologies in Russia, and what is missing will be brought or bought in other countries.
I am pretty sure that Russia is big enough to build whatever they need within, could cost a lot of money for some of them but they can do that. However, it is never nice for these nations to have sanctions, because in order to grow you need to sell something to other people. Imagine a nation that has zero trades with other nations, no buying, no selling, how could that grow?

Obviously Russia has trades with bunch of nations right now, China, India, and many others so they won't face any troubles at the moment, but that doesn't change the issue that they need bigger markets to sell to. But if they want to keep their imperial needs in front of their economy, as we can see it will grow smaller and smaller and will cause financial trouble to citizens.
73  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 30, 2023, 06:25:23 AM
Regardless of this player's destination for next season, it's sad to see Dortmound can't keep one of the best players for another season because we know one reason for Dortmound to get these results is Bellingham during this season because Bellingham is the most valuable player in Dortmound and currently PSG and Manchester City trying to hire this player.
I was no longer surprised when Borussia Dortmund released their player who played well, this is not the first time they have done something like this, last season they also let go of Erling Haaland and now he is impressing in the Premier League. Borussia Dortmun is a team that typically seeks to profit from selling players they buy at low prices and they also at high prices.
I feel like there are a lot of clubs that release their players or sell their players to make a profit, Ajax is famous for doing that for example, they make a ton of profit and instead of spending that on just buying players, they spend that money on making the buildings and stadiums and training grounds etc etc, basically making the club bigger and more modern so they can raise better younger kids for the future as well.

Dortmund is an example of that mindset, Sancho, Haaland, Jude, they are all just cogs in a machine and when Jude is gone, I bet that there will be some other player they will polish up and show to the world and make him play 90 minutes of every game and hope that they can sell that player for a lot of money as well. If they don't find one at youth team, they will buy one, but they will have at least one player they hope a lot for their future.

Al Ittihad scored a goal early in the match but did not get another chance before half time. Al Sahbab made a call your next time but their defenders were too strong. And despite a massive attack, neither team managed to score a full game. However, the number of fouls in yesterday's game was the highest among the two teams, and Zakaria, a player of Al Ittihad, went into extra time and received a red card. There was a lot of fear for the visitors at the midway point but the game went into a long extra 17 minutes and Al Ittihad managed to score a late goal to level the match at 2-1. Abderrrazak is the Ittihad all-rounder who managed to score two goals in this match.
Yo, so I caught that Al Ittihad vs Al Shabab showdown, right? A veritable emotional seesaw! At intermission, I was biting my nails for Al Ittihad – those infractions and the red card had me perspiring like a marathoner. But whoa, they turned the tables in those bonus 17 minutes, huh? That last-minute strike was pure poetry in motion!

Now, let's chat about Abderrrazak, the jack-of-all-trades! Netting a brace in a single match? That's legendary, my friend. It's a testament that it ain't always about the number of chances, but how you seize 'em. Sure, Al Shabab might've peppered the goal, but Al Ittihad made their mark when the stakes were sky-high
I feel like it was a sided game by the ref for sure, both penalties were not a penalty and Ittihad was helped to win that game. I do not know if there is a thing going on in Saudi league about that at all, I mean if there are any talks among the fans even before Ronaldo, we all have nations where we say refs support a team over another, and it looks like Ittihad definitely deserved to lose this game and played horribly.

Shabab on the other hand scored one, and an idiot tried penenka for the second, if not for that and the fake penalties for Ittihad, this game was totally different. In the end I am guessing that the result will be much different in the end. Hopefully we will move to another level and the league ending will be much more close.

Haaland - De Bruyne duo are doing a wonderful job lately. Their performance against Arsenal in the Premier League was so impressive. They had better keep up this level of communication with each other at a high level for the Champions League also. Because there isn't much time to go until the first leg against Real Madrid in Santiago Bernabeu. This cooperation can help them a lot about capturing an advantage away already.

Last season they experienced a really big disappointment in the same stadium with an unbelievable comeback by Real Madrid in the final moments. I must admit that Manchester City were strong back then without Haaland also. But I still see a significant difference between that version and this one now. It is like there is no defense line that can stop Haaland from doing what he always do. Real Madrid should work hard to find a formula to decrease his effectiveness against themselves.

What do you think will happen in the first leg? I think that Manchester City will manage to get a draw at worst.
The trick is that De Bruyne was always a technical player and he always passed so well for his teammates, but Haaland was missing, they scored and they played wonderful and they won cups, it was all great until Haaland showed up, after he did, things changed and a team that already won everything but UCL, became even better and that's shocking, you don't see the best team become even better, you see best teams start to fall apart a lot more often than you see them get better. This is why now?

Now De Bruyne still passes wonderfully but then the person he passes to ends up getting the ball and bulldozes through everyone in front of him and he just scores, people can't catch up to him and he can score from anywhere and can move his body all angles to score, he is a scoring machine without a doubt.

Well,I don't drink because excessive alcohol affects my liver and it isn't just good for my system,and
i haven't gotten this kind of experience before,but one thing I know is that there are some persons who nomatter the amount of drink they drink,they still know themselves and doing anything they do won't be a problem when they drink.Alcohol isn't just good for some persons,and when they force themselves to drink,it will always intoxicate them and they will definitely misbehave and do things in an abnormal way.Drinking and trading doesnt sound ok to me,but if you can control yourself and know what you are doing while you are under the influence of the alcohol,it's still fine.Moreover,some persons get inspiration when they drink.
It is a bad one and nobody should do it, I have seen others do it and it is definitely a bad one. I am not a super religious person, but I do not drink for my health as well, it is definitely bad for you. In fact, drinking and smoking at the same time equals to a life expectancy that is on average 12 years less, can you imagine that? You get to live 12! less years, I think that is not a good idea for anyone at all.

If you cut sugar and carbs out of your life as well, which is not needed by the body anyway, that means you get to save another 7 to 13 years (depending on some peoples body I suppose) so if you are healthy basically and cut those four things alone, you gain a total of 20 years or maybe even more. Let alone all the trading benefits as well Cheesy. Get to trade with clear mind and healthy body equals bigger chance to profit.

I still have faith in Aubu; he was performing admirably under Tuchel before his dismissal caused the entire team to fall apart. Letting Aubu go would be another terrible decision given that the team currently lacks a natural striker. Aubu is a good finisher with pace; what he needs is a coach who has plans for him and who can make the midfield work. I just hope that whoever the new manager is includes Aubu in their plans for the coming season. He can still play top football for two years,  Xavi wants him back, but the decision will be made by the new manager. The only good and ideal successor if they decide to let him go would be Osimehn, but I doubt he would leave Napoli for a team without a UEFA competition next season.
I can’t wrap my head around what the problem is with Aubameyang, before he moved to Barcelona he could barely score a goal to help Arsenal but started scoring at Barcelona. Maybe he has a attitude problems in the locker room that makes him have problems with clubs he play for.
If you ask me, I would say that defense is much more important these days. We have seen recently when Varane was out and they needed Maguire again, they started to suck right away, it's just obvious that he is not a player for this level and he needs to leave. That means they need to get a great centre back and should be doing a lot better and should be getting better at striker as well.

This is why I believe during summer window they will get one CB and one ST and they will be much better next season. They already did a decent season this year, not amazing but better than last year, with more additions to the club they are going to be doing much better as well. Should be a season to wait for United fans without a doubt, could be even better.

Winning big is what makes a game our favorite, even if it takes us a while to get there. It's like a relationship, you gotta work for it to make it work!

But let's be real, we all have that one game that we keep coming back to, even if we're not winning. It's like a bad ex that we just can't let go of!

For me, it's the Gates of Olympus. Sure, it's fast to spend money, but when I hit that big multiplication, it's like fireworks are going off in my brain!
well, this is the point, there is indeed a special sensation when playing a favorite game like this because as you said, even though in this condition gambling, especially the Gates of Olympus, is sometimes a little detrimental but for fans, especially when looking at the visuals that are displayed, it clearly makes us feel slightly cured by wanting to be there regardless of winning or losing.

The satisfaction of getting a big multiplication makes this feel like an adrenaline rush that is real enough to watch Cheesy
I agree, whenever you gamble at a place that provides that much fun, it is important to remember that the earning part is only secondary to fun part. I personally have a lot of fun when gambling at Stake, that is the number one thing that I do and I believe that it will keep going for a long time as well, I do not think that it will change anytime soon.

I know that it is going to take a while for me to personally get better financially after the gambling is over because I will most probably lose money, but I do not bet too much so I should be fine and I have that much fun anyway. So when you are gambling, always aim at that level, always make sure that you end up gambling the way you always wanted to gamble and that's fine.

Lionel Messi have more contribution this season and helped PSG win on several crucial games but he can't give PSG fans more expected like winning Champion League. For winning Ligue 1 seems is not matter has Lionel Messi or not I think PSG always dominance with domestic league but fans expected with Lionel Messi can get better achievement in Champion League. If PSG can't extended for Lionel Messi contract I don't sure will bigger loss because still have Neymar and Mbappe.

But PSG have few weeks for discussing back with Lionel Messi contract and accepted his offering salary, but depend on PSG or Lionel Messi its self will accept with new offering from PSG or returning back to Barcelona next season.
UCL was something they didn't get before Messi, and didn't get later on neither, that means that Messi is not the reason why they failed to win it, but they didn't win thanks to him neither, that's the difference. I feel like that means we can't blame him for not winning it, but we can't thank him for winning neither since they didn't really have much change since he arrived.

Aside from that one Lille year, they won the league and lost UCL before messi, and since then they won the league and lost UCL since he arrived, so he didn't really had a huge change in the team neither. This is why he is a great player but they need something else. I keep saying that it is manager that they need, a proper one that had UCL experience before, and I mean a lot of experience there.

I feel like more than identity, it's more about getting younger players to show up. It's obvious that they built a good squad before this one, and they won and they were all happy about it. But then they ended up losing and not even going to world cup as well, because some of their good players retired.

I feel like they will do better during this euro cup compared to not even be in world cup, they will be at least in this, but they won't win it. They just need a whole new generation to grow up and be better as well. If they can do that then they could end up with a better result. How did France become this good? They found players that are great and close to each other at age, Italy needs the same thing, kids at young 20's to play and be good together.
You can't compare France to any of the other UEFA teams. During the last one decade or so, every other UEFA team has become weaker. Netherlands and Germany are prime examples. But France is probably the only UEFA team that has got stronger. They have a steady supply of young players and at this point their best player is the 24-year old Kylian Mbappé. Italy on the other hand is a relatively young team (despite the rapidly ageing population in that country), but their younger players are yet to prove their worth at the international level.
Maybe so, but maybe we need to remember that it depends on a single game as well. They might be better than everyone else, but in a single game they could end up losing and could be out of the tournament for good. Not during qualifiers of course but that doesn't mean that it should be like that at all times neither, it should be a lot better.

I personally believe that the best thing to do in this case is to keep it going as much as they possibly could and get a big win. If they can do that then it is great but if they can't then it will be a bigger disappointment than ever. I know that not many people will have a chance to win it, like if Spain loses nobody will care, but if France loses that will be even worse, and disappointing. So there is more pressure on France than any other team currently, and that could cause trouble.
