The price of bitcoin was very dumped now.The price of bitcoin was hard to raise above the 20k dollars now,many investors was holding for long.This happened due to some people left the crypto investment platform after the dump of 65k dollars to 20k mark.The price of bitcoin was increased to 20k and again with some little volatility.It back to 19k dollars,but this will going to increase maximum soon.When the pump in market many projects will back to the field,Some May be trusted for sure.

Yes, exactly, things are as it says, but we must not lose faith, because at any moment the market can emerge in a great way, but when we see that the market can make this growth, we must know that at any time moment we can be prepared to be able to buy and more and invest, because the times that we are in now are ideal for buying, the only thing that I always advise buying is Bitcoin, not another thing, because it is very likely that due to the sudden changes in the market you can go against and lose, the purchase of tokens or something like that, I do not recommend it for those reasons.

When a person begins to think as if he were a whale, he sees the market in another way, it is better to do it that way, because that way the market can be better understood, because in part those who define the market are the whales, institutions, and when you can the emotions, the fundamental ones, for me it is essential to learn to establish a good control over the information that we are currently receiving, the drums of war, everything related to this can influence the market, also the technical analysis according to how the markets are, sometimes it is better to think like a whale, so as not to be the little fish that the whales eat in the market.

I wish it was so easy that I could just turn on a bot and make all the money. We can all dream right? For me I think the better strategy is probably just buy and hold. Other wise I am just chasing losses.
Most of those bots fails, if you really want to be a professional trader then you should just learn to do your analysis yourself, if trading bots are reay then I believe by now everybody will be using bot to trade because they will never lose money which I believe that's what everyone wants, most of those trading bots are fake which you will just end up losing money, so it's just better you take your time and learn about crypto trading before you invest your money and also invest the amount you can afford to lose. Also you can just buy your coin and hold just the way @melody82 said.

A brother-in-law called me and came to my house to ask me if it is true what a robot can do in trading, (crypto trading) he told me that the investment to obtain the bot is 170usd and that you can join BInance, and that the robot makes 3 to 5 trades a day, and that it can be earned as long as you have money in the account, but that one manages, let's say, the amount of money to risk, then according to him and a friend he has it and it is something that impressed me , he made me talk to his friend on the phone, but the friend really doesn't know much, so he didn't help me at all, so I came to the conclusion that he better invest his time in reading trading books so that he himself makes his trading decisions and who will apply everything he knows about trading, is much better than a robot.

What stops us the most from becoming master traders?

Things that stop us most from becoming master traders are, interest, laziness, being too full of ourselves and lack of perseverance and patience.

I say interest because it is the core thing in making us the best in any field.  Without interest, we will not lift our finger to learn trading and trading techniques.  another thing that hinders is laziness.  Indeed there is this interest but we are too lazy to learn things.  

Having learned some knowledge on trading and getting full of ourselves thinking that we learned all things about trading and stop learning and acquiring experience make us worst than a newbie trying their best to learn about trading.  And the last thing is perseverance.  It is the most needed character in order to master things.  Learning basic is easy but learning advance technique is very difficult.  It needs a lot of perseverance and patience in order to acquire the skill of a master trader.
All of those are valid reasons why people do not really become good traders, but the interest in the markets is the most important one in my opinion, people are interested in making money but they are not necessarily interested in the markets themselves, this is the same that happens with the people which study at college to get into a career that could pay them a lot of money but in which they are not interested at all, and as you may guess those people never really become excellent at their profession, since they do not have the legitimate interest that someone which actually loves their career has.

I was previously a person who has studied a lot about the market, in all aspects, but I have applied everything to the crypto market, specifically in bitcoin, but recently in view that I have no idea what could happen, because I don't I am clear about bitcoin, I am venturing into other speculative markets that are cloned, through the brokers, and the fact that the volume is consolidated really helps me, there are more ways to analyze it, I think that in the short term the volatility is much more manageable, Everything related to news works a lot, of course I'm starting and there are many things that I still have gaps, but I think that in general everything that is to learn and apply must be done and reviewed, it is money that we are risking.
7205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chinese version of Metaverse will be great for meta casinos. on: October 16, 2022, 03:49:35 AM

just saw this video published today by Cyrus Janssen.  although he isn't providing link to what he is actually talking about. I did some googling which i found these:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-03-29/alibaba-makes-metaverse-bet-in-china-s-magic-leap-rival
https://www.alibabacloud.com/solutions/metaverse

i didn't know how AR differs to VR. Alibaba will be creating the worlds shopping center where you can use the headset and just literally going to experience this metaverse.

In the future i think its not so far fetch after all to play and travel around the world while at home. the way its been described by Cyrus will actually work best for metaverse casinos than what Zuckerberg have in mind.  i think this is where we can chat on the poker table and make bluffs.
The video and the explanation on how this China's version of meta verse is awesome and very futuristic, it detailed what we all want in the future to be, a great explanation from the publisher he also mentioned that a lot of these meta verse products are going to be launch in 2023, just a few months to go, it's going to be exciting if what all those mentioned on that video becomes a real product, 2023 onwards is going to be a battle of the metaverse, I wonder what will be Zuckerberg's and other industrial world answers to China's version of the metaverse.

Well clearly the Chinese have their own version of the metaverse, it is that they could not stay behind in their market, clearly Mark Zuckerber has done many things since he wants to be part of a totally digital world, he wanted to venture with his own crypto but his project it is much more ambitious, it is taking advantage of generating a lot of land for the metverse and I think it is something that is very well managed and created, under its rules and that everyone can adapt to, for me the Chinese metaverse is on another level, the only way that can give you competition is that your land can be cheaper or, failing that, be free.


I believe it is more likely Chinese Metaverses will be asked by the Chinese Communist party to implement the digital Yuan as a currency of choice for their built-in services or gambling, gaming, payment processors, etc. It would make sense, since we all know Chinese government is not in favor of their citizens having access to decentralized currencies or even strong cryptography. In that order of ideas, while the ideal metaverses would be about each user safely managing their identity, assets and NFTs, the Metaverses made in China would have the peculiarity of having the government holding cryptographic master keys to retrieve NFts, digital yuans and ban anyone if they deem it necessary and of course anything made on the Metaverse would have an impact over the real life social score.

Casinos will be an indirect branch of the CCP.

The truth in all this, nothing that has to do with governments and policies of government entities should enter, because the metaverse is free and should always be like that, however it is how you say it, the Digital Yuan will put it there whether they want it or not want, and be careful if also the Ruble, for me these things are going to be taken by them to have even more control, I hope that in the metaverses there are not so many demands from the KYC, in the same way they will see that the Chinese government will do everything possible so that the Chinese Yuan also arrives at the world level, and since there are so many rumors that there may be a world crash in the economy, that scenario may occur.
7206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto Casinos vs money laundering. on: October 16, 2022, 03:28:30 AM

So, what do you say, does crypto casinos really care about money laundering?

Yes, of course, the KYC requirement on the part of online casinos is not sufficient to counter money laundering, but also in many casinos, there is a requirement for a large win to provide documents confirming the legality of the origin of funds on your deposit.
Many gamblers might hate KYC but if they will only know its positive impact on their security as well as the protection of the casino against money laundering, they will appreciate its importance. Launderers are using casino sites as an escape from their crime so casinos are also trying to be careful.

What happens is that it is a sensitive issue, obviously it is as the colleague has said, to some casinos that are highly reputable and very trustworthy if they care about money laundering and therefore use KYC, but it is well known that some casinos that are mostly relatively new, can be in this business camouflaged by the platform and take advantage of a large number of people and players who are very active in the game, so all these things are sometimes good for KYC, but at their Sometimes it is risky, because an apparent KYC can reveal everything about a person and make them even try on their life and leave them there on a silver platter to extort them or any kind of thing.
7207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Good crypto casino comparison site on: October 16, 2022, 02:55:10 AM
Well I see that OP has a somewhat peculiar list, honestly it is not because I am a faithful follower and that the word of stake.com spreads, but I think that they should be first, as soon as I saw the aspects that they take into account to make the review and to place it in the places, I don't think it's the right one, I understand that stake.com is one of the best casinos in the forum and it's from bitstars, it's really new to me and I think it's not here in the forum, so that is something that influences a lot, I did not see bitcasino.io, Duelbtis, Rollbit, Roobet in the selection that meet many of the characteristics that you take into account, betcoin.ag and playbetr seem good to me, it is only my opinion of course this.
7208  Economy / Gambling / Re: The Biggest Wins with lowest risks in Casino History on: October 16, 2022, 12:02:06 AM
Not gonna lie, seeing stuff like this makes me wish I gambled more often at casinos.  I couldn't imagine winning 8 figures off a $0.30 bet.  It seems so far fetched that my mind immediately thinks it must be some sort of tax scheme or payoff from the casino for some reason.  Like Hunter Biden selling his artwork for millions.  It's just so far fetched of an idea that it couldn't possibly be real and there has to be more to the story.  Who knows though, maybe miracles do happen...
Humans are extremely good at finding meaning behind everything, we are so good at it that we can even find it behind stuff which does not really have one, when it comes to gamble even if some of the wins the OP posted or the ones posted afterwards by other users seem impossible, the truth is that even if something is very unlikely as long as enough people participate in it then given enough time it is going to happen, so even if those wins look impossible someone was bound to eventually win.
Well, one of the things that I like about slots is that, with a very small balance they are able to win a lot of money, for me if there are little money gains, they do a lot, well we have seen in several Duelbits threads, bitcasino.io, stake.com and well this motivates and makes many players feel very strong to play and why not, have some kind of profit, every player who concentrates on playing wants to play, wants to always do well in his game, So these things motivate them, and if you could, why can't a good stroke of luck happen? This is something that can be applied, of course not all the time, but with patience I think that at some point it will.
7209  Economy / Gambling / Re: BK8 - Biggest and Most Trusted Brand. Asia's #1 Crypto online casino BTC & USDT on: October 15, 2022, 11:41:08 PM
Just noticed there is a big change in the UI of BK8, the whole pages looks more modern now and seems to be easier to access from one to other pages. The slot list is now also better with the addition of the RTP information for each slot. Well done BK8, you look to be silent here but you do great work on the site. There is also a countdown for the world cup kick off, I guess there will be some great promotion during the world cup. Excited to know at least a small clue for the world cup event promotion.  Wink

Yes I just checked it, honestly I prefer this new one more elegant and faster some more complete information including official partner banners
But I haven't seen promotion for the World Cup, is there really a promotion plan or countdown only for celebrations?
I don't think BK8 will miss this celebration because the World Cup does not come every year.

I just saw this publication and at once I went to my account at BK8, and honestly, it is worth it that they have done everything they did, I like the way they are doing things, I am a big fan of slots, and I can't deny that I like the stake.com, bitcasino.io, and duelbits slots, but seeing the BK8 ones encouraged me to want to play, I don't know, it may be the environment that is more attractive and it does attract, these They are the changes that many of us like casinos to have, for me the things that have to do with changes and the required information is something that sounds good to me, it is also very comfortable to see the RTP number in the slots.
7210  Economy / Gambling / Re: Seuntjies DiceBot -Multi-Site, multi-strategy betting bot for dice. With Charts! on: October 15, 2022, 11:16:50 PM
Does this bot actually work for Stake.com and PD..... because Eddie (co-owner of Stake.com) said in one of his streams that they changed the API and that is the reason why so many of the bots are not working with it anymore.

So, is there someone out there that are still using this bot at Stake.com? I tried... but I failed miserably.  Roll Eyes  ....Be "lekker" and share the info with all of us.  Tongue

Well I've only done some bots and scripts on freebitco.in, but that was experimenting and the results weren't really good, I think you can put a bot or scriptop, but I don't think you're going to make a profit as many believe , what I do is bet many times with different multipliers, but the results will always be the same as you did manually, the only thing is that the bot plays much faster and they can make the difference, it's the only thing, but the bad thing is that a bot does not have balance control, so it can eat your entire balance if you are not aware, it is something that I do not advise, it is better to do it manually.
7211  Economy / Gambling / Re: Information of Crypto Casinos License and KYC requirements on: October 15, 2022, 10:47:30 PM
I'm curious if 1Xbit or similar scam sites have a license from somewhere.
I don't see 1xBit on the list and I guess it's because it's a known scam site, but I wouldn't rule out that certain scam sites are able to get a license from somewhere to keep up appearances. Or it is common to scam sites not to have a licence?
I couldn't find out the license information of 1Xbit on their website. But the casino review making site says that 1xbet and 1xbit casinos are operated by the same company. 1xbet claims that they are operated by 1XCorp N.V. company, but it isn't valid anymore. Because, 1XCorp N.V. was declared bankruptcy by Curacao operator on May 2022. You will see this information on Curaçao Commercial Register page of 1XCorp N.V. company. Currently 1xbet is operated under ACOM Latin America N.V. This company is registered under Curaçao eGaming.

Therefore, a scam casino may have gambling license. A license can't stop them to scam people. Only the awareness can save gamblers from the trap of these scam casinos.

Almost every casino here has a gaming license in Curacao or data processing license in Costa Rica. These licenses don't mean anything since anyone here without a criminal record can get a license in Curacao for under $20k USD within 6 weeks and less in Costa Rica.

The only reason the casinos ask for KYC is a way of not paying. In Curacao all the casinos work under a sub-license under one of the four master licenses. In the UK and US, licensing is strict. It's not that way for bitcoin casinos.

Wow, I would have liked to know much more about international laws, because I have many doubts about licenses, I thought that a casino with licenses, apart from making it more authentic, presented more security to customers, so wherever the licenses are from, they should allow protection to users, it makes no sense then about licenses if there is no protection, really these things are very different, I know that international law has a lot to do with these issues, but I want to determine if at some point they can decide To give some advantages that are for customers, there should be at least one protection clause.
7212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anderson Silva vs Jake paul who you bet on? on: October 15, 2022, 10:24:21 PM
Sometimes you basically depend on the age bracket and how long it participants in a fight will determine it's wining, Anderson Silva (47 years old) and it may be that it has not lost it weight of fighting, but people in another means of understanding will directly like Anderson Silva because of it's age and the high odds also. Why people will not to give Jake paul 27 years old as amateur or newbies in fighting, and they will not like to choose.

Both have edges and advantages so we can only rely our decision on how well we know and have witnessed the previous performances of these boxers. As for me, I believe that Anderson's stamina and strength will still be able to knock down Jake Paul despite his age. Anderson has a  broader experience and he already knows how to counter his opponent. He has been through a lot so age will not be a hindrance this time.

It's like you say mate, for me Anderson is one of the oldest boxers and with more opinions for everything, age in boxing is not as decisive as it is in football or in any other sport where it really affects a lot, in the ring you don't need to run, just take a few steps and move well, I think the technique goes a lot there, but of course many will say that Paul has the advantage because he is younger, because he is more irreverent and because he is not afraid of him Nothing for the simple fact of being younger, and maybe yes, but in boxing things can happen in other ways, sometimes a 47-year-old veteran can knock you out and you won't realize it.



That is a good point! But we know that experience will somehow help Silva in this fight, Jake Paul might be a decent boxer with good knockout punch but that will be a challenge in his side to do because Silva at his age is still quite agile to evade any serious punch. Anyway, just as you said, this is a rare interesting fight that we should see soon. My side belongs to the MMA HOF, we'll see who will be victorious at the end of the day.

If there's one fighter who can challenge Jake Paul it's going to be Silva, Silva only has one fight in boxing but that one fight is enough to show boxing experts and critics that he has what it takes, I have a feeling that this fight will be very much different from all the fight Jake Paul has, I don't want to see Silva getting knock out just like what happened to Woodley as this will tarnish his image and his legacy, I also noticed that both fighters have big respect to each other, let's see in the ring if they will still respect each other.

In this fight I don't think there is a type of knockout, I don't see it from anyone, both boxers for me are at the same level, I don't think one is bigger than the other, I feel that both Jake and Silva above all serve of good athletes for example of boxing, it is a fight that as I said before, I do not see that there is a clear winner by advantage and I do not know for whom I could make a bet, I see this fight as very tough, and I think that both boxers have prepared very well, for me it could end in a draw, I don't see any overwhelming advantage over any boxer, also if it goes to the technical level (I hope not) I will feel a bit bored.

Oscar De La Hoya Makes His Prediction For Jake Paul Vs. Anderson Silva



Quote
A few years ago celebrities began to pop up in the boxing ring. Quickly these novelty fights began to gain traction and rising to the top of this genre was Jake Paul. The former Disney star turned YouTuber has proved that he can hold his own in the ring. Now, he is making a career out of fighting and beating former MMA fighters. He has his next opponent all set up when he takes on Anderson Silva in a few weeks.

7213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Dmitry Bivol vs Zurdo Ramirez on: October 15, 2022, 09:26:10 PM
Something that Canelo didn't expect when they met inside the ring, simple jabs then  protect his face and body, not allowing Canelo to break his defense.

Canelo is too confident that he thinks he can outclass Bivol in their match. Since he is an undisputed champion, he is confident that he can easily defeat Bivol in their match. Bivol is also a heavy underdog and their odds are really a gap.

But Bivol just does his usual boxing style. He didn't even use special techniques or what.

I guess we can also say that Canelo might have underestimate Bivol too because he thought that he could crack another title in the light-heavyweight as he successfully did the same thing 2 years ago against Sergey Kovalev. Seriously, they need to consider that Bivol was a natural in that said division while Canelo needed an extra weight to meet the required weight, that also means that he will get slower while giving an advantage to Bivol. And now, there's a rumor that Canelo will face Ilunga Makabu in cruiserweight. That's a suicide!



There is something that Canelo lacked against BIVOL and it was more grit, more heart, more desire, I think that Canelo apart from that he did not prepare very well for that fight, he was very careful, Bivol is a boxer who cannot be neglected because take advantage of each vulnerability and that was what Canelo gave, Canelo when many rounds pass he tends to get tired and save himself for the last Rpund and that is something very dangerous, I would not do it, I would give everything I can and if it is from I would like to finish in the first round, because it would exhaust everything I have and when my strength runs out, I would only dedicate myself to the totally defensive fight, for me that would be the good strategy against Bivol, but let's see how Zurdo thinks and how will handle the situation against this very strong fighter.

Even 168 seems to be few for Dmitry. He is a big guy by nature. I just cant imagine him being 168. Dmitry seems to be +85kg in off season and 79.4 (or 175lbs) on the scales. Dropping almost 10kg just to have a rematch? It is Canelo, who needs to gain weight and fight in 175, to rebuild reputation. Canelo needs to beat Dmitry "on Dmitry's field", to gain confidence and respect back. What is the point for Dmitry to cut, when it was Canelo who wanted to test himself in light heavyweight. 
Yes, I think if there will be a rematch between Dmitry and Saul Alvarez it will be 175 lbs. Alvarez can definitely made 175 lbs easy, but Bivol will have problems making that weight.

And if I'm not mistaken, the first fight is 175 lbs so not sure why they need to change in the rematch unless Alvarez wants to take advantage of making Bivol life very difficult because he will have to squeeze his body to super middleweight.

And Canelo might be left hanging if he will suddenly decide to contest the fight at 168 lbs. because Bivol won't surely agree with that as in the first place, Canelo lost in 175 so it's expected to contest the rematch at the same weight. I'm not sure what is in their contract but I think Bivol has a right to deny a rematch if Canelo will active the rematch in super-middle.

I agree and I reckon that Canelo doesn't have the power to call the shots this time, he'll be lucky if Bivol will make some time for him because I think an undisputed fight in the light-heavyweight division will be the next thing to happen, but if Bivol will got defeated here, it will be Ramirez who will have the opportunity to fight Bob Arum's monster cow while Canelo won't have the appetite to fight Bivol because there's no title in the line anymore.

Canelo though is still the cash cow and for me, can still call the shots if he wants. But maybe he has respect to Bivol after he was defeated. And so it is still a good chance that Canelo will seek revenge to the persona against Bivol win or lose.

But Bivol has only a good option to fight Beterviev if the Canelo fight won't happen after his Ramirez win. And yes, this should be 175 lbs no doubt.

Bivol did not only gain respect from Canelo but also with the wide venue of fans around this sport, after beating Alvarez his chance to enjoy more fights and earn huge amount of money is already on his grasp, I'm already assuming that after this Ramirez fight he will push his chance facing Beterviev who knows he might also upset another champ and add more in his belt.

Let see first if how he will perform in this upcoming fight, then talk the rest of his camps plan after.
In my personal opinion I think that Bivol wants to do everything possible to get more fame with his titles, he wants more titles, because that is the only way he can become more famous and get level 1A fights, because of the level of demand I think the Russian is not afraid of him Nothing, because he relies a lot on his technique and his fighting style, which is becoming more ingrained every time and I think he improves it, if we get to see Bivol he has a very rudimentary style, you are something like the old school, and that It helps a lot, for me he is making a lot of fame to be able to harvest more money, and I don't see this badly, I think it is a very intelligent option, and the truth is I don't think he will give Canelo a recmatch for now.

Good according to Oscar de la Hoya's opinion:

7214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Naoya Inoue vs Paul Butler - Undisputed Bantamweight Bout - December 13 on: October 15, 2022, 08:59:07 PM

WBC and WBO super bantamweight Champion Stephen Fulton has shown interest in fighting the Bantamweight King Naoya Inoue if possible or if the latter moved up to 122lb. But if that didn't happen, Fulton can fight Murodjon Akhmadaliev instead to unify the Super Bantamweight title.

Just as I thought that the Champions in that division are waiting for Naoya Inoue. I think Inoue can crash these guys at the Super Bantamweight but of course, he just needs to fully prepare for that and don't rush everything.

The way I looked at Inoue, he is overqualified already to compete in the Super Bantamweight. Who's with me or against my idea? Smiley


I'm with you for sure. Inoue is overqualified from his current division if, in case, after this fight against Butler if he wins and collects all the belt
he can move up and challenge Fulton.

And like what you have said, he needs to be fully equipped and prepared before switching to another division. He should learn from what
happen with Canelo after Bivol beat him on Bivol's division.

It's good if ever Inoue decides to climb another division, and the Champ is willing to accept any challenge for the title belt.
We agree on this, for me Inoue is well above those in his category, but he meets the expectations and standards that they demand, so this is something that should not be ruled out, he is in the indicated category, that the ability he has makes him see that he is on another level is something else, it is for this reason that I see Butler as having the opportunity of his life, fighting with the best boxer he can face, any boxer would like to be in his position, and for this reason I think he will not waste the opportunity and that is why he has been preparing almost with his heart, for me Butler will leave everything in the ring, and the big hit is if he manages to beat Inoue.
I think Butler will try to prolong the fight so he will make use of the ring.  Butler will avoid confrontation and make use of jobs, side steps and step back just to evade any head-on confrontation.  So probably the fight might get way pass the 4th round unless Butler or Inoue(which is highly unlikely) got caught with a KO punch.

Doing that is like Butler doesn't want to try to win the match. He can only win by points and if he will avoid confrontation, how can he win?

Much better if Butler will go toe to toe and tried his best to keep up against Naoya Inoue.

The fans will appreciate it if Butler will try to go toe to toe instead of avoiding the confrontation with Inoue.
It is very true, fighting like this is like when Pacquiao fought Mayweather, that what he did was run around the ring and took him to a merely technical level and where he was given the winner more than anything because of the great influence he had, and not because he is a good boxer, and because his technique is the best, for me that fight was a hoax and I hope that Butler does not pursue a strategy of that style, because I am even able to switch channels, because there are many things to bore me , then a long-awaited fight deserves that they go with everything, I do not see another option to be able to do and have, Bbutler has to show what he is made of and if he is going to go out in fear, then it is better that he does not fight.

Inoue via knockout is much better rather than betting with a decision with low odds.

I think that would not be the betting option we can expect here in this match.

With Naoya Inoue's Knock Out rate, the odds instead for him to win by the decision will have decent odds and not low. I'm also sure that Inoue's Winning by Knock Out especially in the early rounds, probably between Rounds 1-4, won't have that good odds since chances for the fight to be finished on that said rounds are possible as we are talking Naoya Inoue and he is against a super underdog.

I don't see Inoue looking for a knockout against Butler, also that's not Inoue's style, for me he will do other more relevant things, Inoue has a very good reputation, I don't see him going to win like that, although everything is within the possibilities , if Inoue sees that he can knock him out, I think he will take that option, but I doubt it, I really see this fight as very long and it may be within some parameters as one of the best fights, obviously I do not want this fight to be merely technical, because I think We will all feel cheated and that is bad, because that way no one else will want to see Butler in action again and with good reason.

I doubt that anyone will bother to check the pairs of tourists who, although for the sake of formalities, entered the country separately, but walk and sleep together. I know about the conservative nature of this country, but we all understand that any ideology has a huge amount of hypocrisy - if we turn to religion, then all these "entertainment" games/competitions are not encouraged by the radicals. But nevertheless, Qatar wants to hold this tournament and wants to attract tourists. I am sure that tourists informally will behave very freely during the World Cup, although formal restrictions will allegedly take place.

I agree, to a certain limit. Hotel management can't install cameras inside everyone's room. So if an unmarried couple decide to sleep together, then in 99.99% of the cases there should not be a problem. But the remaining 0.01% is the issue. I am saying this, because previously there have been similar incidents in the GCC. Unmarried couples were arrested and jailed, just because they were having physical relationships. If they really want to attract tourists, then I don't think that they should stick to these stone age laws.

To this I can add something, if the rules imposed in Qatar are X, I think that out of respect one should try to comply with them, I am not saying anything about drinking beer and liquor outside the field of play, but I think that already of the hotel is too much but there is something that one must apply, that when one enters someone else's house one must abide by the rules of that house, then it is something that must be taken into account, if one is in a country with many regulations, at least for tourists they should not apply, but I return to the same thing, they set the rules and that already changes everything, in part for me this will be a great world cup where all eyes will be on CR7, Messi and Neymar, I don't think on Mbappé, he is still very young, and for me he is not so bright.
Are you confusing anything about Qatar and Covid? Qatar won the right to host the World Cup back in 2010, and it was initially assumed that due to the climate, the championship would be held at such an exotic time. Covid has nothing to do with it.
As for Pogba, he's still recovering from injury (and surgery) and appears to be doing well, but Deschamps said it's not yet clear if he'll include him in the squad.

Normally we don't have world cup scheduled in November-December. For example, Russia 2018 was held in June-July. I thought that the tournament was moved to November, due to COVID. It never came to my mind that Qatar is located in the middle of desert and weather would be intolerable during June-July. Anyway, no one is complaining about the weather in Qatar right now and therefore I believe that the organizers did a good job.

Thanks for the information about Pogba. It is still not clear whether he will participate in Qatar 2022. But one thing is sure. France would be significantly weakened if he doesn't play.

Of course, obviously if Pogba does not play it will be very bad news for France, without Pogba and only Mbappé's performance it will be disastrous, due to Mmmbapé's level of egocentrism it could generate total losses for France, and also if they do not take Benzema it is like putting a rope on him around my neck, with so many good players in France, I wouldn't hesitate to take Benzema and if I could, I would take Titi Henry, I wouldn't mind at all because of his age, I think there are few players with his class, and if I could take I would also put Zidane in, even for the last 20 minutes of the game, to have a whole arsenal of world football, with those characters I think they could win more than enough.

Yep. Injuries are a terrible thing for footballers.
Apart from Dybala, Kalvin Phillips, Marco Reus, and Georginio Wijnaldum may be absent in Qatar.
The French team is also not in good shape, considering that N'Golo Kante, Lucas Hernandez, and Paul Pogba are injured.
It will be new homework for Didier Deschamps to find the right substitute.
But the show must go on. The absence of these star players will not reduce the excitement of the World Cup Smiley

I read the news from Sky Sport Italia, Dybala still has a chance to appear in Qatar. but Dybala should be out for four to six weeks, he is claimed to still have enough time to join the Argentina squad. but if it turns out that Dybala has to miss out due to his injury, there are still other names to replace him.
Argentina still has Lautaro Martinez, Julian Alvarez, and several other names. Messi, certainly not serious injury. Likewise with Di Maria, some news claims Di Maria only needs a month to rest for his recovery.

On the other hand, IMO, losing N'golo Kante, Lucas Fernandez and Pogba, will not have much effect on Didier Descamps' squad.  they have several names for a suitable replacement candidate. Didier Descamps only needs a mature strategy and chemistry between the players.
These are the things that I don't like before a World Cup, the injuries of players who are very emblematic in a national team, it is very different for Argentina to go without Dybala, yes, they can be replaced, but there is nothing better than those who are starters and that they go with the good team, with the team that gives them enough triumphs because if they don't win they will say that it was due to lack of Dybala, of xx,xxx, among others, it is better that if they go, that they do it with all of the The selection is tough, so there are no excuses that can later come out saying, that if they lose they lose with all the good ones, that's how I think and that's why I don't like it when such important players are injured.

The Guardian has published power rankings for all the 32 teams:

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/sep/28/world-cup-2022-power-rankings-32-team-two-months-to-go-qatar

As per the new rankings, Brazil is at #1 position, followed by Argentina and Spain at second and third spot respectively. Brazil has lost only one out of their last 29 matches, while Argentina has gone unbeaten in their last 35 matches. I was surprised to see Netherlands at 4th spot ahead of strong teams such as Germany and England. Another surprise is that Denmark is placed ahead of France. Serbia is placed at #10, and I have a feeling that they are going to be the surprise package this time around (back in 2018 it was Croatia).

European teams have lost face (and rankings) because of the Nations League  Grin Argentina seems to me the most overrated team of all, plus this streak...can't it be endless? It will be necessary to think about betting on the defeat of Argentina, and in case of failure, increase the bet - the odds will be great, so such a Martingale will not lead to a significant increase in the bet.

Why do you believe that Argentina is over-rated? They have performed exceptionally well ever since Lionel Scaloni took over the coaching duties. And this is also going to be the last world cup for Lionel Messi, and the team will try their best to win the trophy. Apart from Messi, Lautaro Martínez, Ángel Di María and Alejandro Gómez are also in very good form.

IMO, Argentina is the only team that has the capability to defeat Brazil (and they already proved that during the final of Copa America 2021). I am predicting the final match in this world cup between Brazil and Argentina. I don't know who will win, but I am 75% sure about this.

Well yes, you are right about that, although I really see it difficult for a Brazil vs. Argentina final to take place, although the European teams have not seen themselves very well, they really do show a performance well below the norm, maybe because of the Ntions League they don't want to risk their main stars being injured, it could be a great reason, I think something has to be remembered, this will be the last World Cup for Messi, CR7 and I think for Neymar Jr, so for me the looks they are set on Portugal, Argentina and Brazil, and who I see much better of the 3 is Brazil, but beware, nothing can be said so far, it may be that a European country is keeping many things that they have not wanted to show in the Nations League.

There is no doubt that at this point, Brazil is the strong favorite to win the world cup in Qatar. Almost all the European teams are in bad shape. England got relegated to League B of UEFA nations league after finishing at the last place in their group. Germany was in the same group, and they did slightly better by finishing at the 3rd place below Italy and Hungary. Belgium is another team that failed to perform, as they finished beneath Netherlands in Group 4. France avoided relegation, but they had just 5 points from 6 matches in Group 1.

My bet is also between Brazil and Argentina.
I believe that Brazil has a better chance of winning the world cup, because even without a team of great stars (let's face it, Neymar is not doing so well), it's a young team that has actually played very well (undefeated). in all the qualifiers and friendlies in which he participated.
In any case, I see that France is also a team with a lot of potential to reach the final.... let's watch carefully.

@alegotardo Brazil has many important player’s like Casemiro, Anthony, Fred and currently they’re all playing for the same club which will further strengthen their bond heading in to the World Cup. Furthermore while Messi will want to win it and retire in style, but I personally feel that Argentina will just fall short and miss winning it and I’ll say it again that if Brazil fails to win then it’ll be really disappointing for millions of fan's who’re sincerely hoping that they win the World Cup.

Your point is very valid, for me this is something that can be decisive, I think that a person like Messi had his chance to win the final and he didn't, and I've learned that opportunities in life shouldn't be missed, it's something that they must manage to do so as not to go through moments like this, we cannot forget that Portugal, alongside CR7, is also looking for the same feat and something tells me that the spotlights in the world will be in the sights of Brazil, Argentina and Portugal I don't know, but I think that we can't underestimate the other teams either, that there are many very good ones, these teams can be left out, they have to beat the powerful France, Germany, Croatia, they are icons of world football that promise a lot, And not to mention the Netherlands.

My bet is also between Brazil and Argentina.
I believe that Brazil has a better chance of winning the world cup, because even without a team of great stars (let's face it, Neymar is not doing so well), it's a young team that has actually played very well (undefeated). in all the qualifiers and friendlies in which he participated.
In any case, I see that France is also a team with a lot of potential to reach the final.... let's watch carefully.

I was all in for Argentina. But then, most of their main players are down with injury at this point. And among them, Dybala's injury seems to be the most serious concern. And there should not be any doubt that Paulo Dybala is a very crucial member of the Argentine squad. In the recent past, the combination of Messi-Dybala-Di Maria-Lautaro have done wonders at international level. I don't know how fit these players will be when the world cup starts. If they are 100% fit, then Argentina would be the only team capable of posing a real challenge to Brazil.
Well, we must not forget that France has always done damage to Brazil, and the Brazilians know it, I imagine that they already have the strategies for all these teams, both for Argentina and for any country that comes to face Brazil, Argentina is a very complete team, but they are in trouble, Dyabala getting injured does not sound good for them, possibly Dimaría noodle too, all this causes some concern for them, Messi's dream I see more and more far away, as About I see it far from the Cup, as a good South American it would be excellent to support Argentina, Brazil, but I cannot ignore Portugal and other countries that give everything on the field.
7217  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2022/23 | Group Stage on: October 15, 2022, 05:16:56 PM
Things are going on really interestingly in the group stage this season. Many big teams of their groups like Chelsea, Juventus, Porto and Marseille have started really badly. Maybe we have left only two weeks in the group stage but the recent performances are indicating surprising results at the end.

Juventus are the most disadvantageous one among these teams. Because PSG and Benfica have already got six points ahead of them. Juventus have no chance other than hoping for PSG to defeat Benfica two times in a row while they are doing the same against Maccabi Haifa. If they don't manage to get six points against even Maccabi Haifa then they don't deserve the next stage in this tournament surely.
Well, of all the teams that you mention, the one that I see much more affected is Juve, because not only in the group stage that goes like this, not only have they had a bad start here but in the Italian league as well, things have not It went well, the last thing I investigated is that some players have some personal problems and that has not allowed them to do things well on the pitch, and I think that this is not only affecting Juve, but many famous teams as well, but I think that this is where the work of the technical director should be seen the most, but apparently things have not improved yet, Marseille is a strange case, they are not doing badly in the league but they started badly here in the group group, and I think that they if they can do it, so far this is what I see.

Barcelona still has a chance in the 2nd leg later. We can't see that Barca will definitely fail to advance to the knock-out stages. Because, their appearance in La Liga has shown a positive trend. With all the problem that Barcelona have, they currently have a solid team. Only 3 points behind Inter, this is not the end considering there are still 2 matches left. There could be a surprise in this week 5 & 6.
Although Barcelona has a positive trend in La Liga, it doesn't guarantee to win in UCL. In the next match, Barcelona will play against Bayern Munich, it is the strongest club in C. Bayern Munich wants to secure their position at the top table, so they will try all out to get 3 points. So, they won't give a chance for Barcelona to steal points. Even if the match will be held in Barcelona home, Bayern attackers look still too strong for Barcelona defenders. This makes me doubt that Barcelona to win it.



Well, the truth is, I think that Barcelona can lose against Bayern, and it will be something very decisive, I would like to see what Lewa's face will look like if he loses? and if Bayern passes and he is not there? Will it be a sentence for Lewa to start thinking that he should leave Barcelona? It would also be very sad not to see more action from Lewa there, on the other hand, I think that Muller will not let himself be won by his friend, this will be very good, I honestly think that this time Barcelona will not go through and he will have to concentrate only on the League, for many Barcelona fans they don't want to be in the Europa League, but I couldn't say that I won't drink this water.

Juventus are in a really bad condition in the Champions League and the Benfica match up next is going to be their silver lining. If they somehow manage to beat Benfica in Portugal the point gap will be only 2. But there is going to be only one match left at the same time. Let's say Juventus beat PSG in Turin, I don't know if Benfica would lose points against Maccabi Haifa. Benfica's match is going to be away against them but in this case Maccabi Haifa won't have any chance left for the Europa League from a realistic point of view. So they wouldn't make big difficulties for Benfica I mean.

Juventus will even need to get better than Benfica in head-to-heads as well so it is a very difficult job to do. We'll see them in the Europa League most probably. Besides I don't think that there would be such thing like they wouldn't care about the Europa League unless they improve their form in the Serie A and enter top 4.
The truth is I don't see Juve well, right now they are playing in Serie A and I don't see that they have scored a good goal against Torino, however I see it as difficult for them to beat Benfica, and this is something they can do if They have the pertinent determination, if we start to see Juve have great options to win, but if and only if they play with everything, I think that this is already a ceustipon of strategy on the part of the coach, I do not see another option because the players are doing very well, for me Cuadrado (the Colombian) is playing very well, and if they play against Benfica as they are doing against TORINO, very good things could happen.



Important Report:.

Report: There’s a growing number of Juve players who aren’t Max Allegri fans



Quote
According to La Repubblica earlier this week, there is a group of the Juventus locker room that is not happy with how Max Allegri is currently managing the squad. While there are veteran players like Wojciech Szczesny, Juan Cuadrado and others (translate: Mattia De Sciglio) who are very much in Allegri’s corner, the same can’t be said for the younger — and newer — section of the roster who are reportedly struggling to understand the method to the madness of Juve’s manager. That reported list includes Bremer, Filip Kostic, Manuel Locatelli and Weston McKennie, with Federico Chiesa and Fabio Miretti not exactly thought of as huge fans of Allegri.

Italy has nothing to play football for for the time being, as they are not allowed to participate in the World Cup. They could put everything on the Nations League, but how important do they think that prize there? They are the reigning European champions, so they may not care much about the Nations league title. I think other countries think the same way. In addition, the players have then had a World Cup, and also a tough competition (for 95% of the players of these teams), so they don't feel like it at all. They actually had vacation anyway instead of playing a few more games. Younger players are more ambitious, for them every prize counts more likely. I think Italy is the best team, but Croatia reached the final of the World Cup in 2018.

Well, I think that what Italy has lacked is more luck, there are two World Cups in a row that don't go, and something has to be done, Italian football lacks something and they have to do something to correct it, otherwise we won't see them for the next World Cup neither, and that is something very serious for this team, particularly, Italy is the team that I have always gone to the World Cup and I did not want them to see their faces for qualification with Portugal, fortunately it was not like that, but I think it is not like that either , Italy should always be considered, and if, like you think for me, it is the best team, I think the Nations League is more of a preparation match for the World Cup.

Thank you for the kind words about my national team.  Cheesy
Croatia already played in the final at the last World Cup 2018 in Russia and unfortunately lost in the final to France. We were also third in the world in 1998, so we are already used to the good performances of our national team at the biggest competitions.
Croatia also played well in the League of Nations this year, beating France and Denmark away from home and winning first place in the group.
For a long time, Croatia is not only Modric, but also Kovacic from Chelsea, Brozovic from Inter, Stanisic from Bayern, Perisic from Tottenham etc.
We had a short crisis after the World Cup in Russia 2018, but again we have a very good team and we are ready for great results  Grin
Portugal in final? Why not?  Grin

Croatia has a great team, especially with Modric in it. You have every right to be proud of your national team.

They have a great coach along with a well-balanced team that has strength, both speed and power, defense ability, and good goalkeeper. They played very well in the last World Cup and if they can play again in the same way, I think Croatia will be a strong team to look out for at the World Cup in Qatar, regardless of the fact that some of their players are aging and some young players are still inexperienced in international tournaments. But still, their team is filled with players who play for some of the best clubs in Europe, which makes them a dangerous opponent for any team that they meet on the field. I think Croatia can definitely make it to the quarterfinals and maybe even beyond that!


Thanks, I agree with you!  Grin
In fact, I think that Croatia today is a very good combination of experience and youth.
On the one hand, older and experienced players like Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic, Perisic, and on the other, young and talented players like Orsic, Guardiol, Sosa, Stanisic, Livaja...
I think we have a very well balanced team, strong in all positions in the team and I think we can expect great results again at the World Cup.
Final again? Why not?  Grin

Well, I'm a big fan of good football, and I think that Croatia has a great team, I really like the way they do it, and also small details like their uniform, I really like the colors they have, Croatia is a very quiet team, and those teams that are of that style can give big surprises, I only remember how Davor Suker played, an experienced player, veteran and who led Croatia to win many things, a 3rd place is not bad at all, the way things are going, Croatia could easily reach the final, my country has never been to a World Cup, but I imagine that when they listen to the Croatian national anthem the emotion must be unique, I think that if one day my country goes to the World Cup and I hear the anthem, I would cry without doubt, for me Croatia will go very far and be careful, because they can reach the final and win everything.
7219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Haney vs Kambosos II (Undisputed) on: October 15, 2022, 03:44:15 PM
My personal take with Davis and Garcia's childish scene. They are trying to engage their fans and let them ask for the fight to happen. I mean, they can provoke promoters to bring the contract on both sides. My opinion though. Moving back to this upcoming fight, trash talks might be used to attract possible viewers aside from those fans who surely will buy the ticket.


That might be the case why Garcia and Davis have been so foolish and exchanging some words in social media, they are trying to make some hype but people know that the current Ryan Garcia cannot defeat the current Gervonta Davis. It might be best for Garcia to facilitate Shakur first in the latter's debut in lightweight because his recent opponents aren't that strong enough to consider that he is indeed ready to fight Gervonta Davis.

I also think the same for me, Garcia is very good, and even if they did that scene, it doesn't convince me, I like the idea that he go for Shakur first, because it would be an interesting challenge and Davis will be aware of it, I think these things could not happen in another way, although I think what they did is very good, we only recommend the fight between Canelo and GGG, that fight happened practically thanks to the fact that the fans moved and asked for it by all means, they wanted to see that fight that eu If the trilogy happened, it was something that calmed them down, knowing all these things it is obvious that things can happen in their favor and being able to put all this in context to be able to achieve what they want with what they did, it is something that cannot be ruled out .

No one knows who's going to win but basing from how they fought last time, if Haney still has the dominance during the fight the
outcome may still be the same.

Haney knows what's at stake in this fight, I mean if he wins this rematch then it would mean that he would fight Loma next which I think is a money fight for both of them and that would be interesting as well as both fighters are very technical.

So with that being said, I'll go for Haney by decision this time with a not so attractive odds but for me is the way to go.



Yes, it is not so attractive so I think I'm going with Haney winning by KO as it's currently at 3.40 in my bookie. I know there's a little chance and the odds says a lot, however, if Kambosos will try to be more aggressive, that will make him careless and that could be the reason why he will get KO.

I could be wrong, but I'm okay because if I'm right, I would go home big.

Well, in all the threads and in the discussions I've seen about boxing, the chances of winning for Kambosos are lower, I don't know, but I think this could be a bad omen, I know that statistics help us a lot and numbers never lie , but since this is not a mathematical measure, I think that they should take the surprise factor, Haney is a very good boxer and yes, he has favoritism worldwide, he must be very proud and powerful at the same time because of all the speculations that are very much in favor of him, but can you imagine if Kambosos gives a surprise? Can you imagine the apusetas how they would look?



KO is also possible, although Haney is not a knockout artist, but he has 15KOs of his 28 wins, so anything is possible. If we think that Kambosos would lose via decision, so we are only thinking that Kambosos would lose here but will survive the 12 rounds, I think Kambosos will not let that happen, I mean, he will try his best to find a new strategy to defeat Haney and we are going to see that tomorrow.

Well for me I see this as if Kambosos were a guinea pig, and had everything to lose, and although it all sounds so good for Haney, I don't think KLambosos would let himself be knocked out, I think if they would reach a 12 round level and it would be quite a feat, because I imagine that this fight will be decided based on the judges, because I think it will be a very even fight and that it will have many things to see, for me Kambosos will not be so soft, I think it will show a lot, it does not have so much to lose, here the one who has a lot to lose is Haney and that is what he will seek to maintain, for me this fight will be very exciting, blow from one side and the other, it will be very interesting.

However they cannot underestimate the power of Napoli, Napoli humiliated Liverpool in their first match in the Champions League with a convincing score of 4-1. They now lead the table with two wins, it's a good record even though this match they acted as guests. It is very possible for Napoli to win this match.
In this case I may agree with you about Napoli but for a win I still feel Ajax will still stand as winners.
Regardless of what Napoli did to Liverpool the longer they played the more difficult it was for them to rotate players and it was proven last season they failed in all competitions due to difficulties in maintaining form.
Now the schedule is getting tighter so I am quite sure of Ajax in this match.

There is no doubt that Ajax is a strong enough team. But with the form Napoli are in at the moment, and the way they've been able to continue to perform consistently well, it's very difficult to win against any team right now. Napoli has continued their good performances in both Serie A and the Champions League. As the players are in a good rhythm and they are now very confident, Napoli is more likely to win.

Well, to tell the truth, we cannot deny that Napoli is a very good team, they have improved remarkably, I began to follow this team since the Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina was playing a great role, they played with their soul, you could see that they played with my heart, but I've also seen how Liverpool plays and it hurts admittedly, but I see Liverpool badly, I see that they lose games that they should win, I don't know what's happening to them, it's like something that affects everyone, only teams world level, it's like a nuisance, or I don't know if they are personal problems of the players, or that the technical director did not speak to them as it is, or they do not adapt to their strategies, I think that all this must have a logical explanation, but I think that Napoli is a team that must be considered as one of the greats

This is all Barcelona's fault in the end as they couldn't stay solid from the beginning. I was pretty sure about them to qualify for next round before the group matches started. I was even thinking about whether they would manage to be the leader at the end. But they are about to visit the Europa League two times in a row now.

Barcelona is in such a position because of their own fault. To be specific, Barcelona dropped points in two matches against Inter Milan due to the poor performance of their defenders. Barcelona also had tactical problems. Barcelona's attack was inactive in the first two matches against Inter Milan and Bayern Munich. Barcelona will have to play more aggressively in the next two matches. Otherwise, they will not be able to go to the next round.
It is also inseparable from the absence of some of their key players which caused their game to be a bit chaotic. Moreover, their defense line is very easily penetrated by opponents which makes it difficult for them to win. We can see their last game against Inter Mila, their defense is unreliable. Luckily Lewandowski can still save them from defeat.

It's that the only piece that is valuable to me within Barcelona is Lewa, if it weren't for him they would be in a very bad way, they couldn't do anything, the truth is that they would have been lost, the truth is that in that game against Inter I wasn't going for Barcelona, in fact I bet in favor of Inter, it's a pity that they were so lucky to have made a draw, I couldn't believe it, but I'm sure that if they ran away given 10 more minutes, Inter would have scored another goal, because they already had the gap and the defense of Barcelona always has falls or I think that the players get tired very quickly, that Inter is a team that merely plays in defense, however they surprised me, they seemed Brazilians playing, all the time focused on attack.

it's good if Barca has to go down to the European league because, to be honest, compared to other teams in group C (Bayern and inter), Barca has a very chaotic defense. Barca's hope to advance to the round of 16 is still there but the chance is only 25%, Inter is unlikely to lose in the next 2 matches and Barca is also unlikely to win smoothly in the next 2 matches. I'm looking forward to Barca's performance at UEL.
No one want to play at UEL if they have a choice to play at UCL lol because every clubs are dream to play at UCL and they want to become the best club in the world. UEL is just an another achievement, at least if they can't play at UCL they can play at UEL.

I'm looking forward to the Barcelona-Bayern game with great interest, not because I believe in Barcelona's comeback, but because it's interesting to see how Bayern will play this game without the motivation to win. I think even in such conditions they can win big.
I don't think Bayern Munich doesn't have any motivation to win against Barcelona, if they lose in this match, Barcelona has a chance to qualify for the next round since Barcelona will play against weak club while Inter Milan need to face Bayern Munich. If Barcelona losing this match, it's a sweet revenge by Bayern Munich since there's no chance for Barcelona to qualify for the next round. Lewandowski will sad here lol.
I think that all the fgans of Barcelona have made it clear that they do not want to return to the Europa League, I have seen too many memes about it, but for me I will also focus on the fact that the Barceloa-Bayern match will be an unmissable match, nobody can miss it that game, because it will have many things, I want to see Muller this time fighting against a Lewa who abandoned them and who are in great danger at the moment, it would be very sad for a player like him not to see him more, besides he is considered one of the best and candidates for possibly the golden ball, then these things are the ones that make him always have to give more than 100%.



What is most talked about is the classic, and this here is very interesting for Lewa:

Barcelona seeks rebound in Lewandowski’s first ‘clasico’

Quote
With its Champions League hopes all but dashed, Barcelona knows that the Spanish league title has become a must-win to justify the club’s massive financial gamble.

Barcelona, which next plays at Real Madrid in the “clasico” on Sunday, will need a small miracle to avoid elimination from the group stage of the Champions League for the second straight year after winning only one of its four games so far. A 3-3 draw at home against Inter Milan on Wednesday left it on the verge of another unwanted ticket to the Europa League.

But still, these rumors become more evident, possible departure of Barcelona from the UCL?

Threat of Champions League exit fuels Barcelona’s anxiety



Quote
The 3-3 draw with Inter Milan in front of 92,000 people was an exciting game that highlighted the appeal of the Champions League; when it’s good, it can be very good. But their failure to trigger another of their famous escapes also provided more evidence that Barca are a diminishing force on the European stage and the timing couldn’t have been worse. Barca are about to face Real Madrid in the first Clásico of 2022-23, and the gossip has centred on the future of coach Xavi – “The confidence in Xavi is intact” – the real agenda of Barca president Joan Laporta and the possibility the club may have to sell more assets or players to raise cash. Some of Barca’s players are long in the tooth, but essentially, the game at the Bernabéu is a meeting between the top two and Barca are on top of the La Liga table. There is not an awful lot wrong with the actual team, Barca’s problem is the past and a period of excess.

I think the correct word to describe Barcelona's performance is "Anxiety", I don't think there is another, pressure is another word that can describe their situation.
