Liverpool may sell Alisson, he is in talking wint Saudi Pro League for this summer.
If Liverpool really sell Alisson, then it would be the wrong transfer move because Alisson is one of the best goalkeepers in the world. I think Liverpool will not sell Alisson this season because Alisson's presence in goal is still really needed, especially since it is very difficult to find a good goalkeeper like Alisson.
I don’t see how that is a wrong move, being the best doesn’t last forever and at some point a player would have to leave a team and if you look at his age you will know that it’s time to join the Saudi league. He is 31 and will soon be 32 so i think it’s high time Liverpool go out annd look for a younger goalkeeper just as they did with other positions. This is the perfect time for him to make a move to Saudi Arabia league and earn more money for his family since he has limited years to spend.

If Liverpool hit the market they will definitely find a younger goalkeeper to replace him.

I don't know, I do not think that firing Pochettino was a big mistake, I feel like he did not do all that well with the team he was given. I get that they are getting young players for overpriced offers so that they could build a team that would play together for a long time, and that could actually be a great idea on the long run, and they are avoiding the financial fair play hit by just giving them very long contracts as well.

However, unless they make something now, like at least be in UCL or something, then they are not going to get anything at all, being a loser for a few years doesn't make you great, you need to have good results, to aim for great results, you do not get bad results to aim for greater results.
I don’t think so too, i would even say it was the best thing to do because there was no impact on the team until towards the end of the season and he doesn’t seem to suit what the owners want to build. They want to build a team similar to Arteta’s and what Pochettino was building is far different from that. There is no guarantee that pochettino will do well next season and make top 4 but at least the new coach is an ambitious coach known for having good relationship with young players and the players Chelsea are busy buying are all young players with prospect.

Both the board and the players long for European football, it’s good that they didn’t miss out totally and will participate in the conference league at least but all hopes will be on the new manager to lead the team and secure a champions league spot next season. I believe they will have good results next season.

In the topic of gambling, I often see the word "entertainment". Nevertheless, each user means some meaning by this. Many people believe that entertainment is the main driving force of any gambling.
Well, i think if you want to go by the main purpose gambling was invented then I’d say it’s entertainment that’s probably why you often come across the word “entertainment”. But then alot of people abuse gambling and that’s when it shifts from the context of entertainment as it was initially intended for, some people see it as an opportunity to make money that’s why people don’t regard gambling for entertainment purposes anymore but it doesn’t mean entertainment is not the main driving force of gambling.

The thought of people seeing gambling as an opportunity to make money gave rise to addiction as they began to let their emotions in and gradually greed started coming in as well as they lose money. For those who see gambling as a means of entertainment addiction find it difficult to get to them.

we can start the speculations and what will be our favorite teams for next season
What do you think about it?

We came to the end of 2023/24 season successfully and as usual it was an interesting season with lots of memorable scenes. Congratulations to Real Madrid winning the title for the 15th time and Dortmund also performing well to reach the final after winning teams no one expected them to. That’s by the way now, with the latest and biggest transfer that recently happened i think Real Madrid are still the favorites to win the Champions League again after successfully adding Mbappe to their unstoppable squad they would be even more brutal. Only a few teams can challenge them, teams like Manchester City and probably Bayern Munich since they have a new manager now maybe they will be up to the task.

That was what the board use to face in the past but thank God Theymos appointed a moderator and now everything seems to be in place. Few months back i could remember how the board used to be littered with shit posts and irrelevant discussions which made it difficult to locate good quality posts and most of those posts were all coming from newbies who didn’t care about learning and understanding how things are done. The moderator have done an excellent job and all irrelevant posts are being moved to where they belong.

Moreover, in the forum some of the most active members are from this local board but you go just come see how newbie they try spoil everything with anyhow post.
This community have produced resourceful members in the forum and the contribution of the the Nigerian members was reason enough for the administrators to provide for us our own local. The newbies act was out of ignorance and negligence and if they continue that way they’ll find it difficult to grow.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: June 03, 2024, 03:45:09 PM

It cannot be denied that PSG's desire to win the Champions League is very high, especially since PSG's management itself is very obsessed with the Champion, they are willing to spend any amount of money to buy great players so that the championship title can become a reality, but all of that has failed and now they will lost another star, namely Mbappe, who will leave PSG, and now PSG management must think about who is suitable to bring to PSG to strengthen one of the lines that Mbappe will leave.

Losing Mbappe shouldn’t be a thing to worry about because they will still easily dominate the Ligue 1 with the available players but the Champions League is something they can’t compete for at the moment. It looks as if they are cursed from winning the champions league because despite having Messi, Neymar and Mbappe they were still unable to win it. The only solution i see for them in winning the Champions league is for them to sign a coach that will reshape the team in a way that they would stand out and be able to compete properly, like signing Guardiola will not be a bad idea, that’s the only way i see them winning the champions league.

They need to sign a world class striker and a winger (LW) in my opinion to be able to balance everything well if Mbappe leaves.

Conte would fit Napoli quite well, depends on how much he is going to get paid of course because Napoli isn't a rich club and it would be quite tough if Conte gets a high contract and then if things do not go well then he could be fired and that would be terrible for him.
Napoli may not be as rich as other clubs but they are quite capable of covering the fees to employ Conte. Conte parted ways with Tottenham in march 2023 after he led them to another champions league qualification but maybe the team was not satisfied with the result. He has had an experience in the Italian league after winning the title with Inter Milan so it was a nice decision for Napoli to appoint him after struggling throughout this season.

A wonderful season has been left behind by Inter... I believe Simone Inzaghi definitely deserves a new contract soon. The current one is about to end by next summer, what's taking them so long?  Smiley
They will definitely give a new contract soon i know they are preparing the documents for that and when the time is right it will happen. Some things cannot be rushed especially when it’s about preparing contracts so they need time to plan it out perfectly to avoid any mistakes. No team will allow such a coach leave after having a wonderful season.
68  Economy / Economics / Re: Hunger in a country known for agriculture. on: June 03, 2024, 06:42:07 AM
greedy rich powerful people that simply do not give a fuck about common folks.
I’m definitely certain you are not from Nigeria but you already know so much about the behavior of our leaders. It’s so unfair how one will be this selfish and be so concerned about themselves and their family and not care about the people who elected them in.

Nigeria is country that is well known as a typical agricultural nation which was once the mainstay to the country economy and because of the agricultural strength of the country compel them to have their flag as Green White Green which signify agriculture and peace but it baffles me to see the level of hunger going on in Nigeria now to the extend that an average Nigerian cannot boast of feeding himself and family three square meal per day.
What could be the root cause of this hunger in a country that has all it takes including human capitals and natural resources to make a great nation that the whole would will cherish and envy.
From the post title i was so sure the post was about Nigeria even without reading the body of the post

Everything is down to the mismanagement of the resources and it’s all as a result of bad governance. The level of hunger in the country is getting high and worse every year and it seems to be getting worse with every new leader elected. Now most households have now settled for two square meals per day and some even struggling to get one meal a day but the leaders are not concerned about this, they seem to be more concerned about changing the country’s national anthem instead of solving more serious problems.

The cause of all the suffering and hunger the people of the country are facing is bad governance, greediness of the people in power and corruption. Any government that doesn’t prioritize the people’s needs over their own personal interests will end up mismanaging the country’s resources.

You should know that Erik ten Hag was successful in his first season at Manchester United, because Erik ten Hag managed to make Manchester United finish in third place in his first season. Therefore, even if, for example, Erik ten Hag was at Chelsea and was successful like that in his first season, then of course Chelsea would not sack him either.
In Chelsea i don’t think its about where they finish rather about winning trophies and instilling a good play in the team. If the overall performance is good then the owners will believe the project is promising and can deliver in a few years. With Pochettino performance this season i don’t think the team looks ready to challenge for the title that why they replaced him.

In Ten Hav situation, if he were to be Chelsea’s coach he will definitely be sacked despite winning the FA cup because the team doesn’t look ready at all and it’s almost as if he is not teaching the players anything or has a specific style of play at all. Pochettino was even better and he got sacked so if Ten Hag was to be a Chelsea coach he would have been sacked mid season.

Manchester United wants to give this player to Atletico Madrid and get Felix instead of him. I think since he already played in La Liga in the last season this cannot be a bad idea for him to play in the Atletico Madrid for the next season and stay away from Manchester United.


Will be a good idea and both parties will be satisfied by the player they get only problem will be that Felix is more valuable and to balance the swap deal i think Manchester United wiill have to pay Atletico Madrid extra money to settle the deal or they will have to offer an additional player.

Greenwood has played in the La Liga and didn’t disappoint that’s why he is on the radar of certain teams and if not for the saga between him and Manchester United i believe United would have want to keep him but it’s not going to be an option for the player because he feel betrayed by the team so the best deal United can get will be to make a swap deal with Atletico since both teams are looking to offload their player and the players are no more interested to play for their mother club.

Imagine there are Vinicius, Rodrygo, Bellingham and Mbappe in the same place and I think Real Madrid will still continue to dominate Europe if these players continue to survive for many years. Is it possible that Mbappe's arrival will enable Real Madrid to win the treble for the first time? What is clear is that they have to try to win the CDR trophy first. Grin
It will be like a cheat having all these players in one team, without Mbappe Madrid are already dominating then imagine them adding more sauce to their already made squad, they plan to destroy the world. There is no doubt, they will easily dominate La Liga and any competition they play in provided they have a befitting coach. Ancelloti is  good but my concern is when he leaves will they have a coach worthy to carry on his legacy?

To be honest, I would have loved Dortmund to win this trophy.Real Madrid are already the favorites for this trophy, so there are very few teams that can stop them here.Dortmund made it to the final and maybe this time I expected them to lift the trophy against Real Madrid, but it didn't happen. Even though they played a good game against Real Madrid, they couldn't do it.Real Madrid are in great form and are always the favorites.Fülkrug played badly throughout the game in my opinion.The team as a whole is good and the striker needs to make the most of his chances.
Everyone except Madrid fans would’ve loved Dortmund to win not because they soo much dislike Madrid but because it’s almost getting boring seeing them win the most competitive competition in Europe over and over again. Dortmund winning would have changed the entire feeling in football last night but even if Madrid were to lose i don’t expect them to lose to a team like Dortmund in the champions league final, only a few teams can actually stop them in stages like this.

Dortmund misused their chances and they simply payed for it, they were punished for misusing their chances. Winning games like this means you should make the most of the chances that comes your way. The loss yesterday was on the attackers in my opinion because they could have changed the entire outcome of the game if they didn’t fail to score.

I was among those who thought Real Madrid would win the match, but I also wanted Borussia Dortmund to win the cup, because Real Madrid will be the favorites next season. And next season they will play at least the semifinals again. But Borussia Dortmund will not be at this level again for the next 10 years.
With the latest signing of Mbappe they will be unstoppable next season and i don’t see them not winning the champions league again next season. Just imagine the level they will be at if Mbappe plays alongside Vinicius and Bellingham, they will be unstoppable. I don’t know how they are easily signing the best players around with no team competing with them at all.
72  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Has Never Been A Scam. on: June 02, 2024, 01:18:13 PM

The transparency of Bitcoin transactions, due to the blockchain, ensures that all movements of the currency are unique and verifiable, reducing the risk of fraud in systems. Regulatory bodies and financial institutions are increasingly encouraging and merging Bitcoin into their systems, indicating how reliable  and potential for legitimate use in the business .

Bitcoin is reliable for easy transaction, it is a system way of saving, it is transparent in trading.
Due to its unique financial stability companies are happy to use it in the legitimate ecosystem due to its legal rights in the country.

Alot of people make conclusions about bitcoin being a tool of scam without actually knowing and understanding anything about it. For instance in my country most people believe any online platform to be scam because of how some previous ponzi platforms scammed them in the past making it so difficult to convince them into accepting bitcoin. Alot of them have realized their mistakes and are now finally getting the concept of bitcoin.

Bitcoin has presented us with lots of opportunities to benefit from but contrary to your statement, regulatory agencies and financial institutions in some countries are not encouraging the adoption of bitcoin only a few of them have given their support because they feel bitcoin has challenged their authority and with the general adoption of bitcoin they will lose control over people’s finances. Despite the government and authorities fighting against bitcoin it has still grown to become widely accepted by people and now regarded as one of the best asset and investment. It still has the potential to grow beyond imagination.

Quote from: Leviathan.007 link=topio=5432944.msg64149648#msg64149648 date=1717113073
Jorge Jesus the successful coach of Al Hilal officlay extended his contract with Al Hilal. I was the news I was waiting for it every minute and it;'s not supering to see this coach expecting his contract because the result he got during this season was amazing and they got the title of the Saudi league while the other teams like Al Nassr got players like Mane and Ronaldo in their teams and the superstar of Al Hilal, Neymar, was mostly injured during this season.
Thanks to their coach Jorge Jesus,  they had good teamwork. Now they hope to earn more achievements in the next season.



No team would let such coach go after such a successful season leading the team to multiple titles and finals and making the team expendable in the Saudi league. Both teams are enjoying each other’s company and it’s best to extend the coach’s contract to spend more time at the club. No team came close to Al Hilal in terms of performance last season and they deserved to win the league after such a wonderful performance.

Al Nassr did well compared to other teams that spent money to sign players but still couldn’t perform well just like Al Ittihad, though i believe this upcoming season will be more competitive and Al Hilal might find it difficult to win matches easily, all teams will look to improve their squad for the upcoming season. I want Ronaldo to spend more years here in order to win the league in Saudi Arabia so it will make it 4 league titles won in 4 different countries.

Liverpool are expected to strengthen their squad next season. Next season, Liverpool, City and Arsenal will probably fight for the title again. However, if the performance of Chelsea and Manchester United improved, the Premier League would become more competitive. These two teams are far behind.
You have a point Manchester United and Chelsea are far behind compared to how they were few years back. Chelsea have shown some sign of improvement towards the end of the past season and if not because they Sacked Pochettino Chelsea should be able to challenge for the title as well because they have been gaining back confidence and their balance.

Next season the competition might not be as exciting because even if  Arsenal still try to win the title we all know they won’t be able to win it unless Guardiola leaves Manchester City. Manchester City might see less competition because Kloop have left Liverpool and they’d probably lose more players and it might take time for the new coach to adapt to the league and the players.
76  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Scammers are the smart ones, be careful. on: May 31, 2024, 05:25:05 AM
This is an old tricks and I thought people have grown past this level. The operate this scam by draining the TRX of whoever attempt to transfer the USDT as fees.

I will continue to advice people to apply wisdom all the time. Anyone that have a way of earning USDT should be able to know how to send it, and it takes only someone greedy to fall for this scan.
Whether it's an old technique or not, there will always be new people in the crypto world, which means a new set of people who are ignorant of it and are vulnerable. Without falling victim, they will not know of it's existence and when they do, they are likely to fall victim. It's good that the OP shared this with us here, at the very least new members who are unfamiliar with this tactic will be able to learn from it, and there's nothing wrong with reminding us to avoid such strategies.

This is a very dubious and smart strategy, we ought to be careful online especially on telegram, alot of people are going extra miles, thinking of anything possible just to scam others. I will say not everything you see online is true, be careful even when you feel you just want to help someone.
Scammers always think extra miles to convince people in order to victimize them that’s why it’s very important to never believe anything online at first sight, always verify the authenticity of certain claims before believing it and anything that will require you to send out money from your wallet should not be trusted. The crypto world is full of scam so newbies need to educate themselves more about various strategies scammers utilize to steal money from people.

~Snip~

Everything can happen, especially in this stage of the season and the final stage of the game. Real Madrid needs to be careful with Dortmund because they are not a team to underestimate; they can make a surprise move. Although Real Madrid are stronger and they are doing better than Dortmund in all aspects, in this stage of the season we should not underestimate any team opponent. Since this is the final, you can see that Dortmund will do everything possible to see them win the title, but I think it will be very hard for them to achieve that because of Real Madrid's consistency, so let's see how they will do and who will win the league title, even though I consider Real Madrid to win. 
This is the Champions League final so being the favorites to mean doesn’t mean they should approach Dortmund unprepared, we all saw what happened in the Europa League final, Atlanta was the underdog but they came out on top and that day they were on top of their game taking Leverkusen unaware.

If Real Madrid should approach the game showing signs of weakness they may actually lose the game, Dortmund cannot be underrated, we have seen how well they have become and even if they are no match for Madrid they will still put up a good fight i believe so.

Madrid are the best team as far as this competition is concerned and i don’t think they are ready to lose to an inconsistent side Dortmund.

79  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Always Cross-check your address before withdrawing or depositing Cryptocurrency. on: May 30, 2024, 08:48:52 AM
I've been away for a while, but I missed being in the forum. What prompted me to create this post was my previous experience and also a recent clip I came across on the media, I know many might had fall under this category but I'll share my experience and also a similar one from the clip for members to take precautions so they don't lose their assets due to minor mistakes.
It’s always good to bring something like this to the forum so a lot of people can learn from other peoples mistakes,  mistakes in crypto are very costly and it’s impossible to recover lost assets so it’s important to be very careful about making transactions because a slight mistake will make you lose your money.

Quote
Well, I'll start with the similar experience from the clip, a young man who bought Bitcoin since 2010 and saved in a flash drive probably stumbled upon the flash drive and discovered he had about 55k BTC and out of shock and excitement began to  book vacations and check expensive items online, then immediately decided to withdraw his asset. He downloaded an exchange to withdraw and sale but didn't copy all the deposit address and lost all the 55k BTC worth a fortune currently.
This story sounds made up to me because i don’t see how a young man will buy bitcoins in the early days and not hear about the rise of bitcoin price all these while and not seek his flash drive as soon as possible. Even if you are not in cryptocurrency that much you would remember you bought some BTC as adoption rate increases. Bitcoin has gone popular that it’s impossible for a person not to hear about the news of bitcoin when the price is going up.

I don’t know how possible it is not to copy all the address because your device will automatically copy it all once you click the copy button and if your clipboard is not infected with any malware then i don’t think there will be any problems pasting the receiving address. It’s always advisable to double check after pasting to confirm if your clipboard is not compromised. Also when the address is incomplete or incorrect your wallet will popup a message telling you it’s an invalid address.

The fact that some United fans still want Erik tan hag is very very confusing to me. I get that he won the FA cup, which is lovely and I am not against that at all, but that team finished 8th in the league, that is not United level of result you can't be happy with a manager who made the team 8th.
No one will be sad when their team wins a trophy but then we all know that Ten Hag is not the one for Manchester United, he didn’t just led them to finishing 8th on the table but the performance of the team was not really impressive at all throughout the league. That’s not the level United should settle with because they are a team that should be performing well in the league. They don’t even seem to have a style of play and it proves that the coach is not teaching them anything.

Quote
I mean I get that there were a lot of injuries, which is terrible that is true and some of the results were because of the injuries, meaning that he is not the only responsible party here, it's just life. However, even with that he shouldn't have done this badly with that much money spent on transfers that he wanted. I believe that anything out of top four was unacceptable and he should be fired to get someone much better instead.
Exactly, injuries are bound to happen and it does happen to every team so as a coach you are to expect injuries and when they happen you should have a backup option in order to manage the situation. Chelsea suffered more injuries as a lot of their starting lineup were out due to injuries and they were able to manage the situation and finish ahead of Manchester United.  I also think Ten Hag should be sacked and replaced with a better manager because now there are lots of managers available in the market.
