I took Fenerbache to win on a Handicap +2.5 @ 1.93 odds.
5-0 HT ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) It's a massacre, Fenerbahce are getting obliterated. But mad props to you for going for 'Fenerbahce to win' (: I guess we all make crazy gambling decisions sometimes, don't we ? Today we have: Tottenham vs Bayern Real Madrid vs Fenerbahce
Again considering the recent form of Real I will go for either a draw or Fenerbahce. I know it's not usual but Real is not performing these days. In the other match I will go for Tottenham despite Bayern to crash Fenerbahce by 6 - 1 yesterday.
I'm done with gambling on anything pertaining to Real Madrid until the season is officially under way.

if they are playing with a balanced team then they should win this match.
And like you said, Spurs did play with a somewhat decent team, and as usual, we lost. Feels like people can win some decent money in this pre-season if they bet against RM. IIRC odds for Spurs to win were around @3.25! Bayern vs Fenerbahce next. Away win @12.00 and above. Anyone brave enough to go for it? lol Real Madrid are really losing it this pre-season, Injury plagued, conceding goals consistently and scoring sporadically. Can things get any worse for them ? I took Fenerbache to win on a Handicap +2.5 @ 1.93 odds.

Let's do this please, especially Rakitic. He's got a very little left to offer for Barcelona at top level, meanwhile Malcom could still turn good since he's got age on his side and all he needs is some playing time.

Real Madrid vs Tottenham is underway (Audi Cup) not ICC, Real Madrid are on with front line consisting nof Vazquez, Benzema and Hazard, new signing in person of Ndombele is also featuring for Tottenham as well Harry Kane and Son Heung Min.
Bale is not listed in the match day squad: Probably still in search of a new club.

^ Ah it looks like Zidane will have an over paid bench warmer this season. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) But he could play right wing tho, right? Hazard left, Bale right. I shouldn't be that bad... He could even be a super sub. With various Injuries to the squad, I foresee a blessing in disguise, but would Real Madrid move for Pogba regardless ? Real Madrid's payroll would be insane! Everton has reportedly tabled a £55 million fir Wilfried Zaha, it's most likely to rejected by Crystal Palace though. According to Goal.com, another overpriced player, IMO. Real is going for Pogba or Eriksen. I don't think United is willing to sell tho, but the Spurs could be to fund their acquisition of Dybala. And almost every player is in this market. For the appropriate amount, I'm sure Man Utd would welcome the deal for a player who's had his heart elsewhere already.

We're getting murdered in preseason. now trailing 0-2 to Napoli but maybe I shouldn't be worried since we're not playing with any of our preferred forwards. Maybe Klopp's also focusing on training and stuff rather than goals, but who knows? friendlies are weird... though last season we did pretty well, I remember the bicycle kick from Shaq against old enemies.
It's now 0 - 3 and 15 minutes left to play, None of the preferred front line is playing but those available are the second best options, I'd say. A number of them were those who pulled the infamous come back is Barcelona a few months ago. It's just preseason anyways and there's absolutely nothing at stake.

Fekir never materialised... anyone got Merseyside rumours I'll be dripping wet for?
I'm curious to know what transpired and why the deal never went through, Fekir just sign for Real Betis for just £18 Million, I'm sure Liverpool would have had no problem coughing that out. Klopp is done for this window after Liverpool completed signing of Fulham's Elliott.

I think it is unfair that you're judging the rates without Hazard with just 11 matches, the rate would have dropped drastically if games without Hazard continued to 52 as well, Have a doubt ? Then let's make a small bet of $20 to $30, I say Chelsea's next 52 games (starting from the post) would not better that of playing with Hazard ?
Not just that. That statistics doesn't take into consideration level of opponents and minutes played. I was playing Fantasy last season and had Hazard in my team and ended disappointed a couple of time because Hazard was kept on bench against weaker opponents around Champions league matches. If Chelsea plays well and wining he stays on the bench but if Chelsea plays lousy he enters last 20 minutes to try change the results. Sometimes he managed and sometimes not. My point is that it heavily influences above stats. I decided to read the article and my point was justified, majority of the matches he missed was from the Europa league, I suppose that explains it all. What these figures don't show, in fairness, is the standard of opposition Chelsea faced in all those games.
Of the eleven he was missing, seven of them were Europa League matches where Sarri's side scored 21 goals and only conceding three times.

I had seen the news about Gareth Bale going to the Chinese league and the video had circulated that he had arrived in China, ensuring that he did choose China as his career.
Bale's £1 Million per week move to Jiangsu Suning, could trigger Real Madrid's move for Paul Pogba. Maguire's deal could also be finalized if Pogba, or Lukaku were to leave Man Utd, A deal which Solksjear wants completed ASAP.

^ Real's time is now! I hope they lose a match in their first 5 - 8 fixtures. That could make their line on winning La Liga go to 5 or so. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The last time I checked, it was around 3ish... Not much value in there imo. I might be risking a little amount on Atletico Madrid to win La Liga this season, because Barcelona doesn't look too good either, And Atletico Madrid really put up a good fight last season until the last few matches, A repetition of the 2013-14 season could well be on the cards again.

Welcome back mate, It's awesome to have our famous thread back, I guess you should change the thread title to 2019-20, It doesn't matter much, though.

It's very possible. Matches can be fixed in the top 5 leagues too. It has happened before and am sure it will happen again. What usually happens is that the truth doesn't usually come out immediately but we get to know about it after a good number of the years after the culprits have been exposed. Remember Match fixing scandal in the Italian Seria A? To refresh your memory on what happened, you can check on the web for a number of articles including this https://www.sportskeeda.com/football/calciopoli-2006-match-fixing-scandal-juventus-relegatedIt can happen, but chances are it would cost a lot to have matches in the top 5 leagues fixed due the level of exposure in these leagues. It can be quite easier if the match fixing happens with between just the referee and one team, but It will be harder if it is going to involve both teams. But there are few occasions I have seen games in Italian Serie look like a fixed game for sure (towards the end of the season mostly) I saw a game having a odds of draw at 1.50, home win at around 3.00+, away win at 8.00+ and for either team to win at almost 3.00 odds. I was like the hell could you be so sure of game ending a draw for bookies to have come up with such lines, and these matches indeed as draw.

Hazard fired blank again, that'd be his game third right ? Barcelona match against Kobe ended 2 - 0 in favor of Barcelona, but Griezmann wasn't on target, I guess this two could be up for who'll eventually get their first goal for their new teams. I think you need to forget Ronaldo, he isn't going back to Real,
Exactly, Ronaldo being at Real again is only just gonna postpone what they're going through (probably), truth is, it's inevitable!

Real Madrid have look really clueless in their recent matches.
A complete disaster for team like Real Madrid. It's a shame that these days they are performing their worse. 3 - 7 lose, 5 goals to conceive in first half. The match was gone out of their hand when they conceived the third goal in under 15 minutes. Real Madrid really needs a player like Ronaldo back in the team. But what are the Odds of Ronaldo coming back to Real Madrid ? 1000/1 Not as If he left on good terms. They're bound to go through this one day, They'd get past these evolution phase too. They probably just need some more time, Zidane is capable of that, we've seen that before.

Wtf is ongoing, rumors for Juventus - ManU and exchange for Lukaku-Dybala.
Hell no, I hope this is a distraction for the real exchange Dybala+money for Pogba.
Lukaku is a big donkey, I’d be very surprised if Juve had a genuine interest in him. Dybala is a good player, no way would they want to lose him in exchange for Pogba. How can you be looking to get of Higuain, then see Lukaku as an alternative ? If the deal goes through, It is going be a big win for Man Utd. Barcelona continues their business with Visel Kobe as Thomas Vermaelen joins old team mates and club legends Andres Iniesta and David Villa at the Japanese club.

Barcelona might become the new Manchester United when Messi retires.
No, Please! Barca should become anything but not Man Utd(A victim of their past success). I'm also scared for Barca first two seasons Post-Messi era, they need to be prepared and a lot of players need to start stepping up very fast. Current Match against Visel Kobe is at Halftime the score remains goalless.

Back to the Madrid derby, It was a really interesting match from the very start to the end of match, 10 goals and 2 red cards. Atletico Madrid won 7 - 3.
the rest of the team were trash especially midfielder and defenders. A call for Paul Pogba could today ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It's a Madrid derby at the ICC 2019, Atletico Madrid have started brilliantly with 2 goals under the first 9 minutes, A goal from Diego Costa and Atletico's new signing Joao Felix scoring on his debut.
Atletico Madrid have thrashed Real Madrid by scoring 7 goals, and in response Real Madrid have been able to score only 3 goals. It’s a new season but it seems that Madrid is playing poor football like they were playing last season, and to make matters worse for them Luka Jovic is injured. I think it’s best if Madrid re-sign Ronaldo and save themselves from further embarrassment, because if they continue playing like this not only will Zidane be sacked, but many players too will be shifted out of the club. Real Madrid have look really clueless in their recent matches. I feel terrible for Luka Jovic, I hope it won't be long term injury, Ronaldo and Real Madrid love story is well over already, and it's never happening again.
