681  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hold than trade. Just don't use leverage, futures. on: January 12, 2024, 03:10:25 PM
If a trader has a good understanding of the market and if his capital is relatively large then there is no need for him to do futures trading. As we saw a few days ago, the price of ethereum was close to $2K , but within a few days, the price of ethereum went close to $2.7K that is, if a trader spent 2000 dollars on spot trading, he would have made a profit of 700 dollars.

Most of the traders go into futures trading mainly with the hope of extra profit but most of the time they lose their money instead of extra profit so they don't have money to do spot trading at that time. We have to stay where the money is very safe, even if the profit is less. If he can trade regularly in spot trading and if he can trade by understanding the market, he can earn a good amount of money monthly than a future trader.

Indeed, between spot trading and futures trading, I find spot trading brings greater profits and is safer than futures trading . But I don't understand why people like to rush into futures trading and lose everything they have.

In recent months , I noticed that the market is gradually warming up and I also participated in spot trading. Up to now, the profit I have earned has been x2, x3 of the initial capital. Spot trading is both profitable and safe, but why people don't realize that, it's baffling.

-.-

Also it is not necessary to think that everyone who invest in Bitcoin will make a whole lot of money. There are people who had lost money in Bitcoin. So it is always better to take a cautious route to invest in Bitcoin and one should not invest 100% of their money into Bitcoin.

I still see many people have this misconception, they think that anyone who invests in bitcoin will profit and become rich , and they will also achieve it easily . They are so naive that they do not know that bitcoin and crypto are a financial market and there will be winners and losers , even very few winners and majority losers.

The only difference between bitcoin and other assets is that its volatility is greater and that can help us make huge profits but can also make us lose everything . It's up to us to earn money or not , it's not like we just invest in bitcoin and we will definitely become rich .

There have been many threads talking about this issue and many people have also accepted bitcoin for their business.  But the problem that bitcoin is facing is that the transaction fees are very high and I don't think it will be fixed any time soon . I'm not against accepting bitcoin for businesses , but we can't deny that bitcoin transaction fees are a big problem that needs to be solved first. Therefore, you need to consider carefully before making the final decision . Additionally , you need to consider other factors as everyone mentioned above , such as the legality and popularity of bitcoin in your country .

It is believed that crypto currency is actually used in most countries today but it has not yet been known, although bitcoin is one of the fast rising crypto currency in the world today most people still don't understand how beneficial it is.
No doubt enthusiasts here in my country use Bitcoin to buy mobile load or pay services offered by one of our local wallet and exchange but when the ordinals came into action, things changed. I agree that most people still don't understand how beneficial Bitcoin is because their negative thoughts still stuck on their heads maybe because of FUD.
and also now that Bitcoin spot ETF have been approved  then we may expect more added chances of adoptions from each
country and with this not just Mobile load but will also merchant from here and there will accept bitcoin.

https://www.reuters.com/technology/bitcoin-etf-hopefuls-still-expect-sec-approval-despite-social-media-hack-2024-01-10/

now that it is all over the news so I assume that longer we have to expect best result ?

I wanted even 7/11 companies will finally accept bitcoin and of course Gas Stations all the fact given are valid but
the longer effect is what we need to wait about this approval .

As I understand it, a bitcoin ETF means that bitcoin is considered a security, so that does not pave the way for bitcoin to be used as a currency or means of payment in stores, companies, etc. The SEC approves bitcoin spot ETFs, meaning bitcoin is recognized as a tradable asset and its chances of becoming a currency are even more remote with this decision. Furthermore, given bitcoin's transaction fees, I actually think it is not suitable as a means of payment , it is more suitable as an asset.

I don’t think Real Madrid really wants to surprise us. In my opinion, they need Mbappe to replace that position, but in my opinion, this transfer won’t take much time again since everyone was thinking he would join them last season during the transfer window and he didn't, so I believe he will do that this season without wasting time. Although we all know these deals are unpredictable, I have not seen any confirmed information from reliable sources yet that Mbappe will make them during the transfer window, so let's keep watching to see if Mbappe will take the deal this time around.
This is not about giving fans a surprise, but Real Madrid really needs Mbappe to complete their squad. No one knows what Mbappe's future will be like now because before there is an official announcement there is still a possibility that something will happen. Just like the previous season where Mbappe had reached several agreements but in the end he decided to extend his contract with PSG.

This is the last chance for Mbappe if he wants to play for Real Madrid because if you think that next season Real Madrid will still need him enough are wrong. It will be interesting to see how this condition can work out because there are many people who want to see Mbappe in the Los Blancos uniform.

Actually, he does not want to play for Real Madrid in my opinion. He actually wants money more than anything and for money, he can do anything. So I do not think he will go to Real Madrid if Real Madrid does not give him the same or more than what PSG is giving him. Of course, maybe he will have a change of heart and maybe he will actually go to Real Madrid. But all of them are speculations and rumors.  Nothing is certain when it comes to Mbappe moving to Real Madrid. And of course, the media and news outlets are making all the juice out of it, as much as they can.

Once again something bad happened for Roma and their effective player Dybala is again injured. Dybala was injured in the last weeks of the last season and this was the reason to put Murinho under more pressure and now he got injured again, however, we can't be sure when he is going to come back onto the field but this player left the gage they had with Lazio which mean he is not in the good situation.


Dybala is very important with Roma because he provides a lot of creativeness for their attacking system. Roma have some strikers like Lukaku, Azmoun and Belotti and those strikers can play together or replace each other but they don't have another creative forward like Dybala. Last season, when Dybala got some injuries and missed many matches in late months of season, Roma struggled a lot in attacking.

Dybala is important for Roma to race with many clubs for participating top four. Without him, they will have less attacking power and smaller chance to get in top four.

The performance from Roma has not been very good recently. And this news of the best player that they have being injured is definitely not a good one for them.

Yes, I also agree that the players that Roma has, strikers I mean, are not as creative as Dybala. So Roma is of course going to miss the service of Dybala. And they are already not performing well. So I don't think the performance is actually going to improve as well. I think the performance is definitely going to deteriorate for Roma.  So the hope for the top four is going to decrease as well.

I wonder, is Real Madrid the only team that really deserves Kylian Mbappe?
Kylian Mbappe is a player who has had a pretty good career in any team, not just Real Madrid. I think Mbappe would be just as good if he moved to one of the big Premier League teams if he wanted to win the Champions League title. Real Madrid is certainly the main option for him, but if Real Madrid don't do something then Mbappe may not join them.

Apart from Real Madrid, I think several other teams such as Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City could be Kylian Mbappe's destinations in the following seasons. Mbappe deserves to be there to win something big including the Champions League title, but only if Real Madrid fail to sign him.
In fact it is not only Real Madrid who wants Mbappe's services because several other clubs, including those in the English league, are also interested in him, but if you look at the price being offered, it is impossible for other clubs to buy him. This is not because you don't have money, but buying Mbappe and not having a good squad will not provide maximum results. If the assumption is that he goes to the Premier League, then I would rather agree if he joins Manchester City because there it will be much easier for him to achieve the league title or Champions compared to going to another Premier League club.

Mbappe's future is still very unclear and Real Madrid are the most rumored regarding his move, but so far there have been no more specific discussions so there are rumors that Real Madrid is waiting and not pursuing. We know how Florentino Perez handles negotiations, even though he is not directly involved in the player transfer market, but he has a cunning way of getting the players he wants.

If we talk about deserving, I will say that Real Madrid doesn't deserve Mbappe, they actually deserve better. Remember that Mbappe actually boosts the money out of PSG by spreading rumors. I understand that Real Madrid is trying to get him still if they can actually make a good deal. But I fear it might actually not end up happening again, just because PSG might through more money towards him.

I understand that there has been no official talk so far between Mbappe and Real Madrid and probably that's why there is actually nothing going on between them. And I don't think it is going to be a good idea to trust the rumors. Mbappe is the best player in the world. So he has options and he is making sure that he is utilizing all his options perfectly.

To be fair I think he is not coming to the Real Madrid club even after this season. And it will only happen because of the money that PSG is going to give him. I don't see any other reason for him to not go to Real Madrid.
688  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you actually think a Bitcoin ETF will be accepted this month? on: January 10, 2024, 02:22:50 PM
I think that the SEC decision is going to be postponed for God knows when. Maybe February or maybe several months.
I wouldn't view it as a tragedy if the Bitcoin spot ETF gets denied. It was a nice bull run from 27K to 45K, caused by all the hype around the BlackRock Bitcoin Spot ETF. The price will crash back to 30K or 20K and we shall keep waiting for the post-BTC halving bull run.
I guess that some crypto friendly hacker got access to the SEC X account. Hackers are on our side. This is a clear sign that we will win the battle against the government. Grin
The incidence that happened yesterday has made me develop some doubts about the Bitcoin ETF approval. While some people may see it as actually activities of hackers, a part of me thinks it is all plans of the SEC to postpone the ETF approval as usual. I can be wrong though but this is a possibility that will become clearer next week.

If the ETF gets approved next week, then I will believe the incidence was a hack else it will be confirmed that it was an intentional development deployed by the SEC as reason for refusing the ETF approval. This is my opinion and I know we are few in this line of thought.

I don't think anyone will believe that their account was hacked , everyone knows the truth about this fake story but we can't do anything other than listen to their explanation of what's going on . Not only you , there are many opinions that this fake news will become the reason for them to continue to delay the approval of ETFs. But we don't have to wait until next week, today is January 10 and we will have the final results today . Let's wait and see what the SEC decides in the end . Personally, I am a long-term investor and I still have more than 30% USDT left , so whether they approve or disapprove, I will accept them my way .
689  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin investment is kind on: January 10, 2024, 01:10:06 PM
Probably many people has invested in bitcoin and they got profit and some also got loss for the investment, also some people have converted their business payment with bitcoin instead of making payment with fiat currency but nevertheless you can not decide to follow a steps of someone who benefited with bitcoin and open a shops and demand payment with bitcoin,

So myself I have decided to launch a vehicle parts shops in my city by January 2024 and I have decided to use Bitcoin as one of the criteria of payment because of what I'm seeing for bitcoin increment and my country that permit for cryptocurrency transaction in my country, secondly I want to start having my own bitcoin with the payment of my vehicle parts, I don't know if mempool of bitcoin I have being hearing will still continue by next year 2024 because I sense that it's what will bridge people not to make a payment with bitcoin if i open by January 16th, because all the necessary arrangements has already put in place and  awaiting for January 16th to open officially.

Wow, that's great, buddy. Everyone will want to follow your lead because you have a well-thought-out plan and demonstrate that in addition to conducting business, you will also find a way to make your company better. Taking bitcoin as payment in your business is also a smart move because, should you decide to invest in bitcoin, you won't have to go back and buy it; as long as your country permits it, you are free to do so. Furthermore, even though you are aware that the price of bitcoin can fluctuate at any time, you shouldn't panic and, in my opinion, you will make a significant profit.

I think that soon all countries will accept bitcoin because I have seen some that I had thought would not allow it, but have now decided to do so. If bitcoin is accepted everywhere, even investors and those who are unaware of it will be inclined to invest in it, making bitcoin one of the best investments available anywhere in the world in the near future.

If bitcoin transaction fees do not increase significantly and remain stable , I will support this idea. But given the current situation and bitcoin transaction fees not going down anytime soon, I don't think using bitcoin as a payment method will benefit OP's business. In my opinion , if OP wants to own bitcoin. It would be better if he used fiat currency directly to buy bitcoin instead of accumulating it by using it for his business. To be honest, bitcoin is more suitable as an investment, a store of value than a currency or means of payment . As long as we cannot solve the problem of uncontrollably rising transaction fees, there is no point in trying to turn bitcoin into a payment method.

Chelsea are really difficult to understand. How could you manage to be this ineffective at scoring goals while dominating a game? They even lost the game I mean.  Sad  They should be thankful that the matchup is comprised of two legs. Otherwise they were already going to say goodbye to the EFL Cup which is probably the only tournament in which they can win the title.

But after watching this performance I don't think they would be able to beat probably Liverpool in the finale. Liverpool will be likely to have Salah back in the squad until the finale of the EFL Cup so Liverpool would be the winner of the cup I think.
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochentino really needs to step his games if he wants to continue his job at the club because his tactical approaches since the start of the season haven't actually worked well for him. Yesterday against Middlesbrough, I expected Chelsea to win that game convincingly even when they were playing as the away team because the quality of players in the Chelsea set up is absolutely better than that of their EFL semi final opponents.

The good thing about the result of yesterday for Chelsea is that they have a chance of making up for that poor result by making sure they win Middlesbrough with a better result than that of the home side's result of yesterday and qualify for the final of the competition.

Chelsea is not doing well at all. At least in the English premiere league. They are in the 10th position right now and even though they have been able to win the last two matches they are not in a good situation right now. They have a lot of hard matches to play and remember it has not been half of the season yet. They have played only 20 matches. So they will have to play for a long period of time with a lot of consistency. And they cannot be inconsistent in that period of time.

Anyway, I think it is going to be very hard for them to actually get to the top of the table again. The point difference is a lot, to be honest. And the defending has not been good from them at all. They are one of the teams that has conceded the most amount of goals this season. So it surely is looking hard for them. I am not very confident about the coach also.
691  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 09, 2024, 09:11:34 PM

Both Juventus and Inter Milan are putting in a lot of effort to ensure that they continue to play well. Both teams are capable of winning the league title, but Inter Milan is the clear favourite because no team has defeated them thus far this season. Juventus is also playing well and is ahead of Inter Milan by a few points, but I still don't think they can win the league title.

Regarding Napoli, I don't think they can win any trophies this season because it is very certain that they will be unable to do so. Last season, Napoli was the favourite team in the serie A league, but this season, they really let people down with their play; they are the team that didn't sell out many players and even their best players don't look good. Napoli is currently in ninth place in the league table, so it is not even safe to say that they will be in the Europa League.


Juventus is working very hard and in a convincing way, we can`t say the same for Milan, I see them limping and not convincing either in their play or in their results. Napoli, well, for me they don`t even reach the cups this year, i mean cup`s zone (cause points).

I only regret about Juventus this season, because even though Juventus only play in the domestic league this season but ya, the reality is that Juventus are still having trouble to getting better result in Serie A. Because yes, Juventus should be able to dominate Serie A this season, but the reality is not as easy as expected. About Napoli this season I think it is clear, that Napoli are experiencing a bad trend this season. So ya, it looks like Napoli will only be in the middle of the Serie A standings and of course, it will be a bad result because Napoli this season have the status of defending champions.

I don’t think Milan will be able to achieve more than 3rd position this season. The points gap between AC Milan and 2nd position Juventus is 7 points and the points gap between AC Milan and their rivals Inter Milans is 9 points. The gap is too much to get ahead. I don't think they need to work hard to be honest because clearly, they cannot get better than 3rd position this season. They should focus on the Uefa Europa League. But they cannot be careless about Serie A either and give away their top 4 positions. The gap between 4th position team Fiorentina and AC Milan is 6 points. So it is clear that unless AC Milan messes up too much, they will stay in the 3rd position.

Emery isn't expected to be a part of the title race already. This wasn't Aston Villa's main target at the beginning of the season. Probably the board just wanted Emery to make this team finish at a decent position which is good enough to join a European competition. But now they are totally at a much better point.  Smiley

But despite that I'm pretty sure the board won't make Emery feel himself under pressure of maintaining their title race. This is just an extra performance by Aston Villa. But it would surely be lovely for Aston Villa if they somehow stay in top four to join the Champions League. Because their general effort so far really deserves a spot there.

Actually, they are going to be more than happy if they can actually finish in the top four. Because the performance will probably drop from Aston Villa and the competition is also going to get a lot harder going forward in the season. And absolutely agree that there should not put any extra pressure on the coach to stay in the title race. He is already doing very well with the team. But we have to say Aston Villa has shown code improvements over the year. They finished on the 7th position in the last season and they finished on the 14th position on the season before that. So this is good improvement. If they can actually finish in the top four it is definitely going to be an achievement.
693  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 09, 2024, 05:20:50 PM
So, are the rumors of a move to Real Madrid over this season?
I don't see Mbappe as Real Madrid's most wanted striker so far, even if Mbappe wants to go there. Real Madrid haven't tried to sign Mbappe so far and I don't see them making him an offer, but the rumors will persist until Mbappe is no longer in PSG uniform.

Apart from Real Madrid, I think Kylian Mbappe also has the potential to join one of the Premier League teams. Of course we don't know where we will play, but what is clear is that PSG will not let Mbappe go without profit. If possible, I would like to see Mbappe at Arsenal if he really wants to move to the Premier League.
Whether that will happen or not we just have to wait to see how this develops because when we look at the rumours and news that are happening now it is actually very confusing and we know that even though there are some reports about some clubs such as Madrid or Liverpool who are said to be in communication with Mbappe but I think this is where we have to be wise and not get carried away with the cheap traffic created by some media because whether Mbappe goes or not everything will be answered when the time comes, it's just that for now we still have to wait and be smart to find news whose sources can be trusted.
Until now I still hold Fabrizio's words because of his track record which can be trusted in reference to what he has reported and in his tweets until now Mbappe still does not discuss his future and I am quite confident in that.

I think he's still not saying anything seriously because he still wants to keep all his options open. Not only about which team he is going to go but also about whether he is actually going to leave or not.  And I think he might actually be instructed to not talk about that. But it doesn't that go on the opposite direction for him? Because talking about him much more should be able to make his market value more right? Do let me know if I'm wrong.

I think this is going to stay uncertain and in the end, he's going to stay in PSG for the money. And the coach will also be able to make him stay.
694  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 08, 2024, 05:41:48 PM
With the 3-0 away defeat to Torino, Napoli has lost 3 of their away matches in the Serie A league. Napoli has lost 5 of their last 8 matches in Serie A. If Napoli continues with this kind of form, I think they will not qualify for the uefa champions league next season.
-.-
They have been on a break in the champions league, and I expected them to perform well in Serie A and try to accumulate plenty of points before the champions league resumed, but their poor form has continued, and their hopes of qualifying for the champions league next season are fading. This is bad for them and they need to get back to winning as soon as possible.

I think Napoli's chances are closed to compete for Champions League tickets next season from Serie A tickets. The only way is maybe they have to win the Champions League, which I think is very difficult with their current performance.
Last season's Serie A champions finally had to struggle to defend their title. This season's Serie A competition will belong to Inter and Juventus. and there will be no other teams to interfere.

Napoli's performance recently is very abysmal. Who would have said that they are the defending champions right now after losing to Torino with that margin and drawing with Monza? They are currently in 9th position and the way things are looking right now, they are not even going to play in the Uefa Conference League.

I actually don't think they will be winning the game between them and Barcelona either. I know Barcelona themselves are struggling but Napoli's current situation is very dire. Maybe they can do something about their bad performance in the January transfer market.

Warner has retired from Test and ODI but will continue to play T20 cricket, as per my knowledge. He is no doubt one of the greatest opening batsmen produced in the history that can play test, ODI and T20 format. He play test as genuine test player while in T20I he is a solid hitter like a young player. Aussies have a good domestic setup and they will produce some other great opener to replace Warner.
David Warner will continue to play T20 as well as various domestic league tournaments. Many national cricketers are hoping for a form like David Warner's farewell to the Test and ODI format. He could have served the Australian team for another four to five years if he wanted, but he felt it was the right decision to retire earlier. If David Warner is to catch up, he has given the opportunity to the youth, he has retired.  David Warner will be truly missed in ODI and Test cricket especially when it comes to big innings, surely every Aussie fan will remember him.

To be honest I agree with @MusaPk. In the three tests that Pakistan has played in Australia, I think Warner got about 5-6 chances in the 6 innings that he played in these 3 tests. He scored so many runs after he got them second chances. He would have probably scored half the runs that he scored in this series than he did after getting all the chances. Shaheen Afridi and Jamal were getting the fielders the chances in the early stages of the match with the new ball and Warner would have gotten out early on so many occasions.

But despite all that he is still an Australian legend I think it will be hard for Australia to replace him.
696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: January 08, 2024, 04:39:47 PM
Zimbabwe's team is very weak this season, as they are not able to perform well defending the wickets. But in the second ODI match today, the Zimbabwean team kept the wicket but could not advance in terms of runs. If the Zimbabwe team wants to win this match today, then the batting performance has to be improved, if the Sri Lanka team can be given a target of 300 plus runs, the Zimbabwe team can win. Now the current pair is Craig Ervine is progressing towards the century, if he can play patiently today then Craig Ervine will definitely be able to complete 100 runs. He is at his best in the current season.
Although Zimbabwe is comparatively a weak team but I think they have performed well against Sri Lanka in today's match. Where 208 runs were lost against Sri Lanka, and they were able to bat well in the first innings. However, from the moment Sri Lanka came out to bat in the second innings, the Sri Lankan batsmen batted very badly due to which their wickets fell quickly. Sri Lankan batsman Janith Liyanage has come a long way, he has scored 74 runs off 103 balls, his batting performance is outstanding and he is batting well towards a century. If the Sri Lankan team can play in pairs at the moment then it is definitely possible to win the match against Zimbabwe, although the Sri Lankan team has lost 6 wickets at the moment. There is a good chance that the Sri Lankan team is in favor of Zimbabwe today, there is not much of a margin of runs, at the moment they need to collect 76 runs from just 91 balls, which is quite possible if Sri Lanka can play well.

So Far Sri Lanka has scored 160 runs and 6 wickets have fallen. Zimbabwe still has a chance of winning the match But I don't think that is going to happen. Janith Liyanage is still out there. They need 46 runs from 63 balls. I think that won't be a challenge for Sri Lanka if they can keep their wickets.

Zimbabwe did struggle with the bat though, Only Craig Ervin did well with the bat scoring a beautiful 82 runs from 102 runs. Many of the batters could not even get to 2 digits of runs. And to be honest I am not surprised that they were struggling. As I have said before they are not that good of a cricketing team. I predict Sri Lanka will win this match and the next match as well.

For Ligue 1 there are still 5 days left to continue, of course PSG can still play quite well and have a big chance of coming out as champions this season.
Their only closest competitor is Nice but the difference between the two is 5 points so it is still far enough to be able to beat PSG.

Winning the Ligue 1 title is not difficult for PSG now. Their  main opponent is Nice. Nice's performance  is not very strong. Although the  performances have been stable, they  are facing a lot of problems scoring goals. Their performance  is stable due to strong defense. However, if the performance of the attacking players is weak, it will be very difficult to  continue the good performance in the  long journey and occupy the top spot in the table.
I would say Luis Enrik's main target now is to do well in the Champions League. Despite performing well in Ligue 1, their performance in the Champions League was quite poor in the group stage. Therefore, if PSG wants to survive in the competition of the Champions League, the performance of PSG needs to be improved.

Arsenal have lost one of their hopes of winning a trophy this season because they were eliminated by Liverpool in today match. Of course the fans are quite disappointed with the results of today match but it must be admitted that Liverpool is more consistent than Arsenal. Even in the Premier League, Arsenal also had to give up their main place for Liverpool and I think Liverpool has really frustrated Arsenal this season.

Well, if Arsenal lose again in the epl match, they will automatically give up even more on winning the trophy this season. I think Arteta has to change Arsenal playing tactics to be better in the next match. He has to raise Arsenal enthusiasm to end the recent series of bad results.
Arsenal have experienced bad results both in the FA Cup and in the EPL. Losing to Liverpool might not be that embarrassing because Liverpool is indeed a very strong team this season. But I am very disappointed with Arsenal who lost to Fullham in the EPL. I feel that the Arsenal players' mentality is slowly starting to decline. And this makes Arsenal have a declining performance. Especially in their attack line. They always fail to convert shots into goals. Very often the opportunities they get only end in failure. Arteta must immediately address this. Because if Arsenal's weakness in attack is not immediately corrected, Arsenal will only end up not getting anything this season. In fact, now the difference between Arsenal and Liverpool in the EPL has also widened to a difference of 5 points. Arsenal's opportunity may indeed end if they fail to get full points in the next match in the EPL. Arsenal's hopes may be in the Champions League which will be even more difficult. With Arsenal's current performance, I'm even starting to doubt them in the last 16 of the UCL. Even though I have seen Arsenal become a strong team since the start of the season. But it is very unfortunate that in the middle of this season Arsenal experienced quite a drastic setback.
Asenal's current problem is the accuracy of the final settlement. they performed quite well at the start of the season, but now they are experiencing problems with declining performance. The last 3 matches without a win are clearly a blow to Arteta's squad. he had to immediately make a plan to awaken his players' mentality.
It's still not too late to catch up on the points difference with Liverpool. but if he loses 1 or 2 more games, maybe Arsenal will have to forget about chasing Liverpool at the top.

The Arsenal team is  now in crisis. Arsenal's performance  showed weakness  after their 4-3 win against Luton Town. And  their main weakness is forward players not  being able to finish properly. Arsenal players are creating a lot of attacking opportunities, but they are not able to score goals. Arsenal have scored only 5 goals in their last 7 matches. For a team as big as Arsenal, this is very low. Coach Arteta should now only focus on the Premier League and try to improve the mentality of his attacking players. He doesn't seem to have any other option. Arsenal's overall situation is unlikely to improve unless the forwards improve in performance.

Not an impressive performance for Barcelona against Barbastro in the Copa del Rey although Barcelona can win but concede two goals against a team that can be said to have quality far below Barcelona, and in six matches in all competitions Barcelona's net has always conceded goals even in a friendly match last month they lost to the Club America team competing in the Mexican league, so it looks like Barcelona's defense is currently quite weak.
Barcelona will face Osasuna in the Spanish Super Cup match and after that face Real Betis in the Laliga match and face Betis as an away team it is very possible that Barca will only get one point seeing Betis is quite solid when playing at home and some strong teams have been held to a draw by Betis such as Real Madrid and Girona.

Barcelona players dominated the match. They  have been able to do a lot of attacks. But even  then Barcelona's performance was not  good enough. Barcelona won  the match. But Barcelona conceded two goals against a team as weak as Barbastro. From this, it is understood that Barcelona's defense is now very weak. Barcelona's performance in La Liga has been erratic. If the team still can't get back on track, and can't consistently perform well, Barcelona will be knocked out of the title race. Barcelona is 7 points behind Madrid and Girona.

Better fielding is more important than batting and bowling. A bowler bowled well but the fielders did not take the catch or did not field well due to which the confidence of the bowlers went down a bit which resulted in them not playing the ball in the right place later on. Pakistan finished the game quickly where the Test is a 5-day game. It was not easy for Pakistan to play against Australia on Australian soil, I admit it but Pakistan is one of the big teams and they must do well in the away series. A good performance at home is worthless if the visiting team can't do well against the opposition. Pakistan could not perform well against Australia on Australian soil, rather their performance has worsened.

I think Batting, Bowling, and fielding all 3 of them have the same importance. But I will agree with you that bad fielding makes the confidence of the bowlers go down. But in test matches, the bowlers can barely create chances and if the fielders drop it, it hurts them a lot. You cannot let someone like Warner get 2-3 chances in 3 test matches. But I think the fielding problem can be fixed within a short time.

The long time problem is that their batting.
Literally, none of them are reliable right now except Rizwan. Literally, none of them scores runs consistently. Shan Masood scored a few 50s and he looks a bit reliable. Salman Agha got talents but he lacks consistency, Saud Shakeel also the same. Abdullah Shafique, Imam ul Haque are also the same.
