A friendly match is only a trial, there is nothing serious in it, winning or losing does not mean anything, because a friendly match is not an official competition. Real Madrid's loss to Barcelona is a natural thing, and there is nothing to be proud of from Barcelona. El Clasico will actually occur in an official La Liga match, the tension of the match is much higher than the friendly match. We will soon see who will be the best between these two teams after strengthening his team in the transfer market.
I don't think so, if they are thinking if playing for friendly match is not important, so why we need to accept any friendly match? Of course this is not a competition, but from this preseason match coach can see the weakness of his strategy and how the players must played on the field. This is not about a trophy but to see the strategy, adaptation, weakness and strength before the real competitions running. New players need pre-season match to being adapt with their new team. Everything in friendly match is important, not like what you think. IMO.
Yes, it's actually a friendly match to see how their squad plays, with the addition of new players, and the loss of players who used to be mainstays, it's all seen from here. Regardless of who wins or loses, but here their strengths and weaknesses are prioritized, I agree with that. In addition, this is an opportunity for young players to show their abilities if they get a chance to play.
It's important or not, it's an inevitable difference, but about friendly matches, basically, it's just to look at the readiness of the players themselves and also some of the strategies applied. However, a friendly match will not be used as a benchmark for an actual assessment. For example, in a friendly match Barcelona won and Real Madrid lost and thus, these results will not be used as a benchmark when they play in the real league. But even so, the friendly match remains an important agenda because if it is not important, then not many clubs are willing to undergo it.

It is not possible for Chelsea to win trophies this season because their squad are not very strong like some of the club we have.  Arsenal have really in improved looking from their game in the preseason match , if time is not taking Arsenal may even take over the position of Liverpool in the next season. I'm not sure Liverpool will be strong like in the last season. The new season will be more competitive,  teams like arsenal will be tough to challenge Manchester city and Liverpool.
Chelsea loss many player have been in the list for transfer because taken by Barcelona, but with few days later before league begin I think Chelsea could find new player. I think Chelsea looks not strong like last season but we can't make Chelsea not in the list for Primer League winner candidate for next season. Still have opportunity actually Chelsea have great mentality with Primer League, I think Chelsea need to completed their transfer window and get central forward early as most important thing because right now Chelsea don't have talented on central forward.
Yes, I also think that Chelsea are not strong for the new season because they have lost players and have not looked for replacements quickly. But even though Chelsea will not be in the title race for next season, I still believe that at least Chelsea can still compete for the top rank at least in the top 6. Regarding Arsenal, they got a change for the better if we consider from this pre-season game but unfortunately, Arsenal are not alone as a team that has made improvements because there are other teams like Manchester United for example. So still, for two positions in 3 and 4 it will be a fierce competition for many teams because for 1 and 2 I believe Manchester City and Liverpool will still dominate.

But if the streamer is also playing with the same system then it won't be a problem, but if the streamer is playing with a different system that has been designed to win then it will be dangerous. I realize that slot games are improving and many ordinary people keep failing, but they keep trying because they are influenced by video streamers who continue to win big numbers. Actually it wouldn't be a problem if they weren't distinguished, but if there was cheating in them then they were very dangerous to use.

Seria A would be quite interesting to watch their league games after tough clubs bringing in sharp players. AC Milan won the scudetto last summer but they might be quite far from the trophy this new season because other teams won't be reluctant in games. They've learnt their lesson especially Inter Milan that were one step of becoming the champion but failed after several draws. I'm hoping for Juventus to bounced back to their best form this new season, Allegri needs to keep his boys active for the new season.

AC Milan coach is seriously working to give his players the best strategies to use in this season to achieve victory. AC Milan really performed well in last season, because their defense and midfield was very good through out the tournament that made them to achieve so many victory from many matches. I don't think, Juventus can win this season title because their defense is not too strong for them to defeat strong team like AC Milan that is among the strong teams in this Italian league competition. It will take Juventus a long time before their new players and old players can understand each other very well before they can perform well.
I personally assume Milan is not a strong team in Serie A, even when Milan won the title last season but because the rival teams last season were also not very strong. So Milan are lucky to be in the top position and they just need to maintain their position because in fact, Milan had almost been replaced at the top several times. Regarding Juventus, although next season they have many new players but their new players are senior players, of course they will easily adapt because they have high experience in changing clubs.

There is a good point in what you said. Smaller teams don't compete harder against the biggest teams in this league for example. Even Dortmund are considered to be one of these biggest teams but they also don't aim to win the league title at the end of the day. In a league like this, it is like there is no way for seeing a different champion than Bayern Munich. This just lowers the quality of a league imo and makes it quite boring. I don't think that this will change in the future easily for leagues like this one.
I also thought like that where the Bundesliga will look more boring when the team that won the Bundesliga in a row for 10 seasons is Bayern Munich, then next season it looks like Bayern Munich will still win the Bundesliga again because several other teams in the Bundesliga still look not so strong to fight Bayern Munich next season.
As long as rival teams bayern munchen continue to sell their star players it will be very difficult for rival teams to stop the domination of bayern munchen, even this season bayern munchen which has been strong enough still continue to strengthen their squad for next season, while the rival teams so far I haven't Seeing a transfer that can indeed strengthen the team, indeed Dortmund which is the eternal rival of Bayern Munich have brought in Sule and Haller but I don't think that will make Dortmund too strong because after all they have lost Haalaand at this time, so I think Bayern Munich will continue continue their dominance next season without strong resistance from other teams.
But even so, Bayern Munich's achievements so far have only dominated the local competition. If Bayern Munich can also dominate the Champions League then it will be great, at least if Bayern Munich can be a consistent team in the Champions League also it proves their achievements are very strong. But so far, Bayern Munich has failed to compete stronger in the Champions League which means, the rival team in the Bundesliga is certainly a team that has no ambition to break Bayern Munich's dominance. because basically Bayern Munich itself has weaknesses that can be beaten by rival teams in the Bundesliga but unfortunately, competing teams in the Bundesliga are difficult to be consistent throughout the season and that makes it difficult for them to take over the Bundesliga title from Bayern Munich.

Pogba's injury is very unfortunate for Juventus. Right after they started to be happy about completing the missing piece of the puzzle this happened. Now they will need a midfielder again and they need to keep the ones in the team also. I mentioned ''keeping'' too because Tottenham have an interest in Weston McKennie on one hand. Now Juventus will need him in the absence of Pogba. Therefore I don't expect that transfer to happen anytime soon. Pogba's return date is unknown which is another disappointment for Juventus.
It's a shame because it might take a long time to recover after surgery, but that doesn't mean that without Pogba, Juventus will become weak. But if Allegri does make Pogba his plan for the new season then of course, Allegri needs a replacement who at least falls within the criteria for Allegri's plan to strengthen their midfielder. Injuries to this player have always been one of the most influential constraint factors, especially since Pogba has just returned to the team, whose hopes of appearing soon are very high.

I don't know Why Barcelona becomes very active in this transfer window. They even don't doubt if signing too many players will cause a problem on players' salaries then. Myabe Barcelona gets big sponsorships that want to give them a huge amount of money.

They are very active thanks to the sponsorships they have made recently seemingly. Otherwise we all know about what kind of a situation they are in actually. They just want to make all the transfers they can before they enter a state that they can't do this easily. These transfers are of course really nice ones when it comes to becoming more successful in the league and the other tournaments both. But I wonder if they will be in a more comfortable situation financially at the end of this season. It won't be easy even if they have a great season.
Big sponsors still won't allow teams to have all the players they want, because if big sponsors can make clubs buy players freely then all rich clubs will be able to easily do that too. But the truth is, every club with a rich owner will still go through a process to finally be able to have a lot of great players on the team. There are restrictions in the finances themselves, especially from spending, which if it is not balanced it is very likely that a club will get a violation. But in Barcelona, they are free and I don't understand because basically even though they have sponsors and have sold broadcasting rights but still their financial condition still has problems especially in paying player salaries.

In the match against France in the semifinals, Germany failed to keep a clean sheet, what might hurt him is that the goal was created by an own goal. But even so, at least Germany still showed its dominance by winning the match, although in the second half France looked more aggressive but it was still not enough to make it win. With this result, I personally believe that Germany will win in the final match, especially against England. I think that even though England reached the final, Germany still has a better chance of winning the title at Euro Women.

The arrival of Paul Pogba adds to the list of Juventus midfielders, it is likely that Allegri will use two attackers and four midfielders. Although yesterday Juventus play with one striker, but Juventus has prepared at least three potential strikers for next season, Vlahovic, Chiesa and Kean, I realize that is still lacking. And for Juventus defense, after de Ligt left to Munich they managed to bring in Bremer from Torino. Juventus' defense and midfield look ready for next season

Indeed until now it was only Juventus pre-season match. But they managed to draw against Barcelona, ​​that's pretty good. Barcelona are quite strong they yesterday won 1:0 against madrid. In addition, Moise Kean scored two goals for the Bianconeri. It looks convincing for Serie A preparations. Juve certainly look active for next season, their target is of course to win Seri A again.
At least Juventus are ready for every line so I personally will not doubt it for the new season, because even though one of them will be injured, Juventus still have others who also have good quality. Positions that may be vacant may be filled by young players but Juventus will still involve more senior players and it will be good for a rotation. However, I believe Juventus will be strong in the top ranks and I also hope Juventus can compete further in the Champions League with a squad like this and I think Juventus can do well in all tournaments.

If it's finished in 2023 and yes Messi has no home other than Barcelona. Unless PSG extends his contract, it will be very inadequate for Messi to develop at the end of his other career if he continues to share seats at PSG. I think the solution is to bring back the glory of Barcelona and Messi makes more room for that. At least there is still great hope if you see Barcelona with Xavi leadership.
There is no reason for Messi to turn down an offer to return to Barcelona after his contract at PSG expires. Messi could not refuse Xavi invitation to return to be the leader of the Barcelona squad because all this time Messi and Xavi has been like siblings. Xavi certainly needs Messi role to restore Barcelona glory, although Xavi knows Messi performance is not like it used to be, Messi presence in the Barcelona squad can give a different smell when they have big matches.
Everything changed. This time it's very hard to win any game even with messi on the barcelona. Xavi clearly confirmed that if it's even impossible to bring back messi the financial problem will be faced by barcelona. Barcelona was still in the recovery phase. This team has bought so many big players recently. that's why im thinking now if bringing back messi to the camp nou will not give a very big difference to the club. This is what i can take from there.
If Messi really can be brought in this transfer window then obviously the Barcelona squad will be very great but unfortunately, signing Messi at this moment is very unlikely. Unless these rumors are linked when Messi's contract expires at PSG, then it is very possible for Messi to return to Barcelona but even so Barcelona still have too many high-paid players in the team while their finances are not yet stable. It seemed impossible when that happened, but if I consider that Barcelona is a crazy team that doesn't care about huge debts, then it seems possible.

Liverpool have to ended their pre season tour with lose result from Salzburg and on that match Liverpool really dominated the game with 75% ball possessions but Salzburg players looks playing with totally defense and Liverpool looks very difficult to break through the defense of Salzburg although since the match begin Liverpool has made several attempts to scoring goals but until final whistle they were failed and final score is 1-0 for Salzburg
Hopefully the unfavorable result in this event for Liverpool does not continue into the Premier League because if that happens, then it will certainly be a big loss. I personally do not have any analysis for their match in the pre-season event this time, because as at the beginning I personally also avoid betting on events like this because it is difficult to predict. Having a great squad is no guarantee as they are on probation so yeah, I'll just have to wait for their match after the new season to get an assessment for a prediction from time to time.

Whereas, with PSG he was still good, I mean he is Messi after all, but not at the level we expected, because he didn't play like Messi should play, and that type of tactical changes are not that easy for players to adjust to.

What is the level you expected from Messi?
We're talking about a player who, like Cristiano Ronaldo, is almost retiring.... you can't expect him to have the same performance he's had since he joined PSG.
Messi will play in the fifth World Cup, how many players have already achieved this feat? Unlike the last World Cup he played, in which he ended up playing "against the coach", Messi and coach Lionel Scaloni get along very well and should create a very strong team... just not stronger than Brazil, which will win this cup Cool
I wonder why most of them want the same performance when in reality, Messi himself is a human being whose age is no longer as prime as he was when he was young. As we get older, I think we have to accept the qualities that Messi still has for club and national team, Messi is still a needed player because his contribution to the team will certainly greatly affect the performance of the team as a whole. It's just that not many of us can accept that because they want a great performance such as in scoring goals, speed and agility in Messi, until finally feeling disappointed because it doesn't live up to expectations.

I'm just surprised when Roma fans celebrate Dybala's presence in the Roma squad for next season, it's a big welcome and I wish Dybala success with Roma and can lead Roma to compete in the top four. If Dybala really succeeds at Roma, then I think Inter and maybe many other teams will regret it. Really can't wait for the new season to start, because it's such a signing I thought it wasn't what I expected, but in reality they welcomed him with great expectations.

It has made me really happy to see Dybala signing for a decent team like Roma. Roma are actually getting more than decent now. They are gaining strength for next season and they were successful with Mourinho in the previous one as well. Dybala has played in Italy for a very long time and it is good to see him continuing here. As you said also, Inter might regret indeed as they were also thinking of bringing him not a long time ago. It depends on how he will perform at Roma now to attract the attention of even bigger teams seriously.
Yes, because as we know Dybala I can say it is difficult to get a new club which I think looks very strange because Dybala's status is a free agent, because Dybala is a great player who certainly has quality. But when his contract at Juventus expired, Dybala didn't have many offers from the big clubs out there, because at that time the teams that claimed to have an interest were only Inter and Roma but the big teams outside Italy didn't seem to have any interest in Dybala. Now that Dybala is in Roma, I really hope that Dybala can make a good contribution because then Dybala proves that he is a player worthy of a big team playing in the Champions League.

Therefore, a person fills in the gaps in his knowledge with faith or superstition.  This does not prevent a person from being efficient and successful. 

Therefore, feng shui is very popular (including in the field of gambling).

I don't mind people believing in superstition as long as that belief doesn't affect their surroundings negatively.  Or that belief motivates him to be a better person.  Like in Fengshui, the peace of mind brought by aligning the house decor according to Fengshui brings to the health and good mood of a person will surely make the person friendly, cooperative a good influence to the society.

Well gambling and Feng Shui both originated in China so it is obvious that the gambling industry is also influenced by Chinese traditions thus for the popularity of belief in the effect of Feng shui in the gambling activities
If in construction they trust Fengshui for a better layout, then it proves that Fengshui can indeed be applied in gambling too. It's interesting to practice, I think because they prioritize calm, while in gambling, calm is also one of the factors that must be felt and the atmosphere must be built. At least to make the gambler's own emotions stable because that way, they will have more controlled emotions and that will be good for themselves in gambling.

Leicester had really good times with Schmeichel. The season that they became the champions in the Premier League is just unforgettable even now. It is time for him to leave as it seems. I understand that he wants a new adventure with a different team after playing 11 seasons for Leicester. Nice is one of the decent Ligue 1 teams hence I think that he would continue to perform nicely there too. Leicester will have only Danny Ward left in the team so they would start searching for a strong goalkeeper like Schmeichel as of now.
Any team that has an interest in Kasper Schmeichel I think it will be good for Kasper Schmeichel himself, because he is 35 years old I think that is an age that does not have to be in a very competitive league like in the Premier League. From the rumors that exist, Nice is a team that is ready to sign Kasper Schmeichel and I really appreciate it because Nice are ready to sign a player at such a senior age. Kasper Schmeichel's contract at Leicester does have one season left, so it doesn't matter if Nice sign him at this time or maybe wait until his contract expires.

What I admire about Germany is that they still have a clean sheet record so far, so it is very clear that this German team has a good defense as well as a good attack. Also, Germany is the only one at this event who has the record for winning the most titles, if I consider their process to the semi-finals then I am very sure Germany will win the title again. Indeed, whatever the result is, it can still happen, but with Germany's quality which I think is above average, I am very sure they will continue to win until the final.

Well , like someone said in this thread. With so many important players leaving Bundesliga and with so little transfers being made by "mid-tier" teams , how will Bundesliga increase it's internal performance ? We all know that this is the main problem with Bundesliga right now : The competition is tight just in front when every year only 2 teams are fighting for the trophy and the rest of them are simply playing into their league. Well , it seems this year won't be different than the previous ones.
Only two teams do you think? For me, there is no competition in the title race in the Bundesliga because in truth, the Bundesliga title will only belong to Bayern Munich. The problem is, Bayern Munich still have their key players kept and even, when key players leave then Bayern Munich can buy back great players who are at least of good quality too. Unlike other teams, when their key players leave they don't replace them with players who have good quality too, usually they will make the players they get to be stars in the team and then sell them. This way will not make the team grow stronger, but only increase their own income and not an achievement to win many titles.

Messi always gets space in Barcelona, ​​as long as he is still active as a football player, Barcelona will always leave one place for Messi in his squad. Messi has also got a special place in the hearts of Barcelona fans, Messi's arrival to Barcelona has always been awaited by all his loyal fans in Barcelona, ​​but not this season. Barcelona had to wait for Messi partnership with PSG to end to bring him back to Camp Nou.

In Spanish we say that second parts were never good. I think it is in English said as second acts are never a good thing.

In Messi's case, I don't think his hypothetical return to Barça would be a good thing, as he is 35 years old and the fans remember him in his heyday. If he were to return, he would not leave better memories to the fans than in his first stage.

What Barcelona's board is doing is trying to create hope, even if it means risking their financial future, and so far they are doing it well. We will see how his bet turns out.


But in my view the return of Messi is not about Messi's performance in matches, but only to complete the squad and hopefully can provide motivation and input to the young Barcelona squad itself. After all, before I heard about Xavi's statement that Messi should retire at Barcelona which means, Messi's return is not entirely to play for the full 90 minutes. We can see how the senior players in a club, they will not play for the full 90 minutes but to fill the situation and conditions when needed.

I think Arsenal will be ahead of Chelsea this season the fact is Arteta is doing a really good job on his project by bringing in an efficient and productive player maybe this beats Tuchel out of the transfer window.
In other words in terms of the interview it is possible for players to be brought back to Arsenal before the transfer window closes I think this will be a good improvement after Arteta is believed to be able to finish this season well at least in the top 4 after last season failed.
I also think the same as you. Arsenal are very aggressive and move quickly in the transfer market this time. and in contrast to the conditions of chelsea. chelsea is too slow in this transfer market. other than being too stingy or not willing to pay a premium for every good player they need. so that many players did not join Chelsea and in the end Chelsea always failed to compete in the transfer market this season. I, as a Chelsea fan, have been very upset in the transfer market this season.
Indeed, it is very unfortunate because even Chelsea have lost several times to Barcelona regarding the transfer of players in this transfer window, with this slow movement it will certainly have an impact on poor preparation. But in the case with Arsenal I personally am not sure, because there are still Tottenham and also Manchester United who are very likely to be able to fill a place in the top four. So, Arsenal's competition in the Premier League is basically not only with Chelsea because there are other teams who will also continue to strive to be able to finish the season in the top four.
