I'm waiting for the Manchester derby between long time rivals, Manchester United and Manchester City when the league resumes, I'm pretty sure Manchester United will want to prove once more that they are a better team than Manchester City. On the other hand, Manchester City will be looking to get all three points to secure their the top position if Arsenal fail to win against Spurs, the match will be really tough and entertaining.
Manchester United will try to surprise the Manchester Derby which will be held at the Etihad stadium. After being criticized at the start of the season for poor performances, Manchester United slowly recovered to win back-to-back Premier League wins including the most dramatic when they humiliated Arsenal on Sunday 6. Ten Hag is very aware of the strength that Manchester City has, he will play very carefully and try to close the Manchester United defense so that there is no gap for Manchester City players to score goals. Haaland is a player who should be given a special guard because he can create something that can bring Manchester United back to defeat.
Not this time , manchester city would simply destroy manchester united as less ass 2 goals with prime haaland there and prime de bruyne , statistically they are unstoppable .. i just cannot imagine if manchester united by the end of the match winning it.

Im going to pick city straight win -1.5 handicap.

so bayern munich is taking a little break from performance and will still be in 1st place again at the end of the season Roll Eyes
In as much as i don't want this to happen, you may be correct, for another club to win the title, the club has to take every opportunity they get, and what that means is that anytime bayern aren't winning, the team must try to be consistent and win as often as possible so they can stay many points above bayern. But if it happens that even if bayern are poor and drop points, the closest team to them and possible title contenders will also drop points, then since bayern has the stronger team, when the games start coming thick and fast they will surely be in a better position to get more points and win the league.
Which meaaans? Of course when they are in the lower position where they used to be , it is the best time for you to put the money in! As every year the chance for bayern to win the league always high, every single time. The bayern domination is something like a long time culture that needed to break , it takes time.

Bundesliga owned by bayern, period.

Juventus management should now invest money in young players. and long-term planning to strengthen the team. Otherwise, they will face more losses financially, as well as not
this is actually what disappoints juventus fans a lot, allegri doesn't succeed in bringing young faces to juve, he prefers old players who in fact can no longer give Juve good results


Did they live up to the nickname "Old Lady"? Lol
It's disappointing that they prefer old players over creating the regeneration that will be their future. They seem to only focus on "finished" players, it can even be said that they have lost their golden age. This always happens at Juventus, season after season. Actually, if they want, they are very capable of developing more young players. I'm not saying that old players are not good, it's just that their time is relatively short. Unlike the young players, of course it will be profitable in the long run.
They are financially in trouble now.

It's stated that juventus has reached the highest loss in serie A history as they are using too much debt without significant result ... in their tough times , they put a lot of 'finished' players this season , compared to the previous seasons where they invested in several young talent ... the number just decreased drastically this time this year.
This reminds me with barcelona. The club with so many debt but it can't use its debt for better purpose. It's better if juventus to change its coach caused by this is also affecting the decision to buy the player. They need to think about regeneration rather than wasting so much money to bought the players that is not even needed by barcelona. Im sure that juventus fan was also thinking about sacking allegri and then replace him with a better coach.
this is the best decision that can be taken by juventus rather than keep paying and using allegri as a coach. The performance may be dropping even lower in the upcoming match
It's a tough one to sack allegri immediately in the bear future.

Not impossible but more to a loss calculation , allegri departure would cost a bit a lot as he have more than just twi year contract but also several aspects like a clause hiring him in long term project let him keeping the job even the club performance a bit shaky.
The fans are indeed feel tortured now.

There is already a lot of uncertainty surrounding the defense of Barcelona. In addition, all these injuries are not going to help at all in any way. Barca is going to face a lot of problems in the defense with Koundé and Ara'jo out with injuries.

In my opinion, Pique can no longer be trusted with the defense anymore, he is very old and he does not have the pace required to play at a high level. From the beginning of this season, the defense of the team was already weak. In the area of attacking and midfield, I believe Barcelona have an excellent backup plan. It seems to me that they are going to have some real problems in the defensive lineup as a result of all these injuries.
It's difficult for Barcelona at the moment but when it comes to Pique, despite his age and the chaos he is in with the club's top brass, he can still be played because if I'm not mistaken he has also played several times like when he faced Plzen in the Champions League.
Actually this could also be an opportunity for Balde to increase his flying hours but I don't know if Xavi will entrust this young player to a temporary replacement or not.
Where is christensen? Did you forget about that?

Despite for now christensen have not got his place yet in the starting line up , i think xavi will keeping the rotation on especially if he look at christensen playing history with chelsea , he won't hesitate to choose him over the other players. Poor barcelona in the defending area.

Watford FC confirms Slaven Bilić as its new Head Coach on an 18-month contract, subject to receiving the relevant work permit.
https://www.watfordfc.com/news/official-bilic-appointed-hornets-head-coach

Watford signed a 1.5-year deal with Slaven Bilic. He previously coached West Ham United and West Bromwich. He has England experience. In fact, he played in the English Premier League as a football player. He is no stranger to England. According to some news I read in the press, Watford changed 4 coaches in the last year. Slaven Bilic will be their 5th coach. Watford have 14 points in the Championship and they are currently in 10th place. It's always difficult to build a good career in the England. I wonder if Slaven Bilic will succeed in the difficult one.
Well he's been a fearless coach , he turned west ham from mediocre into nearly qualified to champions league back in the days in 2015 , if only they won the last three matches of that season they might be playing at champions league , too bad they are a couple of points away to play in the most prestigious competition.

Not a bad choice by watford, they are trying to get back to premier league and it's a great decision though to react quickly after several disappointed result.

it's a team game not just individuals, Haaland is indeed a player of above average quality and Manchester City have been very lucky to sign him this season but that doesn't mean because they have Haaland this season they will be able to win the title easily.
it's been several seasons Manchester City have always been favorites to win the UCL title but they never got it, this is the most prestigious stage on the blue continent of course the tension is very high and many big teams are giving everything on this stage, therefore there will be no team who will win it easily and many other teams also have the same chance of winning the UCL this season.
It's not Manchester City lucky to signs him but in my opinion he was lucky to choose Manchester City as his current club because if he still in Dortmund or other clubs i am not sure he will reach to high level performance and in this team there are plenty of players who had good quality to pass so Haaland can playing with more comfortable because of their service and from season to season Manchester City always be the favourite for race title but seems they weren't lucky enough because always failed at knock out stage and on 2021 they almost get the trophy but they defeated Chelsea
Manchester city fans can now expect a little bit more for manchester city to grab the champions league trophy this season as they own one of the best talent in the world plus obe of the best manager in the world both combined into something what so called a hype one , will they finally reach that target this season?

I would still say it's not that simple , haaland could get struggle being consistent despite his countless records in the young age.

There’s a lot of student nowadays got involve early in gambling and this is bad since most of the site didn’t allow underage and yet many still able to access the site. Your story OP is very common, not the worst story but that’s an early sign of addiction. Now bigger problem was created and it will be hard to look for that money in an instant. I do have my personal story of losing big money but not to the extent that I’ll be using some funds for my family and personal needs, this is something I can’t afford to do at all.
Well as the gambling ads getting wild in post-covid era and now it's really hard to control over it, kids under age become a victim as they are easily get influenced. These kind cases often occurred and pretty unfortunate to see ? The only way is by taking the internet access out of them.

They havent ready to gamble responsibly.

But on the other hand I still feel this will also be a little bad. France is one of the national teams that is considered to have a big chance in the world cup but during this Nations League, Deschamps seems to have lost momentum and is still confused about placing players. They seem to have no chemistry and big names are just names for their players because they often rely on individuals rather than teamwork.
In these games, they shouldn't show everything just before the World Cup. It's also about tactics and that could help the other teams. If these games lost, it is not such a big loss compared to a game in the World Cup. There, many more people watch and the interest is much higher. The winner of the tournament will be talked about many years from now. What about over the UEFA Nations League?

No big team really played on top level on Nation League this year just because of World Cup and in order to prevent important players from getting injured they chose to manage some players or play them a fewer minutes than usual. Nationes League is not so attractive and it's understandable but for some low classified teams , this is a chance to catch last spots for Euro so yea...another factor of why we see surprises in results. Smiley
+1

That's why you might get a great odds betting against big teams as things might be complicated as well as the  loss of france to denmark earlier today , despite france play with the full power ... full squad , they are taking the match no too seriously but a warming up.
749  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: September 25, 2022, 02:14:30 PM
I would say lack of consistency rather thank lack of scoring goals.

They beat bournemouth 9-0 this season though equalling the premier league record , it's only 6 matches for liverpool as well as they got too many draw in the early season , if i have to say ... betting on title race for liverpool to win the prem ... it is now , the time is now when they are low ... it would have really nice odds!
This is indeed tempting but the problem is even if they can come back and get a better performance than now but still I'm not too sure if I make a bet for them to be champions.
The simple reason might be in the City. Last season they competed until the end but at the moment Liverpool are still missing Mane and City are better because they have a goal machine like Haaland so I am still leaning towards City at the moment.
Statistically ... manchester city will always win , but this is football where unexpected things often happened , leicester city who against the odds did it , manchester united who perform really bad stopped the unbeaten arsenal who start really great almost perfect and so on.

Liverpool still become the second title contender and it's only the beginning. Let's judge it later.

It is undeniable that some of Liverpool's defeats were southeast of their defense which was not as good as before and made a lot of unnecessary mistakes.
Yes, Liverpool defenders are decreasing a lot of their performance, they look weaker and careless this season. And the most visible drop in performance is Van Dijk. Previously, Van Dijk is a very strong defender and very solid to keep Liverpool defense line, but this season he already made some poor mistakes that he shouldn't do it. I think Van Dijk has a problem with his mentality or confidence in playing. It is Klopp's responsibility to improve again Van Dijk's mentality/motivation.



I think on the contrary, Liverpool's defense is not that bad because they are one of the teams that have conceded the fewest goals  only conceded 6 goals or 3 teams with the lowest conceded after Brighton and Manchester City. I personally see Liverpool's performance declining in attack even their total goals are lower than Tottenham and also none of their players on the top scorer list while last season they put 2 players on the list.
I would say lack of consistency rather thank lack of scoring goals.

They beat bournemouth 9-0 this season though equalling the premier league record , it's only 6 matches for liverpool as well as they got too many draw in the early season , if i have to say ... betting on title race for liverpool to win the prem ... it is now , the time is now when they are low ... it would have really nice odds!

Lewandoski has also set his eyes on the golden boot and Ballon d'or. I think he's closer to the Ballon d'or at in Barcelona than when he was at Bayern Munich. Wining the Ballon d'or would be more possible at Barcelona next season.
There's more to Balon D'or than just being a top scorer. Lewandowski will have to first win the la Liga, UCL or, even better, Wordcup on top of being a top scorer. Also, to some extent, popularity of a player matters. Imagine if in the same period Messi wins world cup plus the French league 1, do you think Lewandowski would stand a chance?
Lewandowski has more attraction than Messi right now.
Messi time is gone even if he is playing good since attention on Ligue 1 is less than La Liga. Nevertheless, winning CL with PSG while performing great could let him get a chance to grab Ballon d'Or again. World Cup is the other opportunity but harder to achieve. Getting these two will grant the gold Wink
One last shot for messi to get the world cup trophy and probably the last ballon d'or as well but yeah i agree that this time lewandowski might grab that ballon d'or as he waiting under the shadow of prime cristiano & messi for years despite his excellent season after season , this time with barcelona in la liga ... it's the greatest time to achieve that.

So far so good for lewandowski who has netted 8 goals out of 6 matches + 2 assist , time will tell though.

Brazil easily won the match already in the first half and left Ghana no chance. 3 goals from Brazil in the first half was enough and their team look sick and to me they are one of the favorites to win the world cup. Richarlison also scored two goals for Brazil even tho i think there are better option for the striker position in Brazil.
Sometimes I am happy to know that many people are optimistic with Brazil's performance.
I confess that I'm also looking forward, but I don't know how Brazil's performance will be in this World Cup.

Unfortunately ""friendly games"" is one type of match, and World Cup games are totally different!

Let's see how Brazil will behave in this World Cup!

Brazil always have a full of talent , in every world cup edition they are the favorite ... but of course the squad strength is not the only parameter to decide which one gonna lift the world cup trophy, more than that ... you need a strong mentality as you might feel nervous as this competition is the most prestigious one among any competition.

Everyone really wanted to lift this trophy for once in lifetime at least.

If I make profit then I’ll make sure to get everything even if I gamble occasionally since I want to enjoy that profit and spend somewhere else. I guess as a small time gambler leaving some funds on the site might still be ok especially if the site is good enough to ensure your security and you can really trust the site. Though it’s too risky if we are talking about huge funds here because if I have that money it’s ok for me to pay for the fees as long as I have my money in my wallet and have the control over it.
True , sometimes a site has different policy regarding its customer funds.

Especially when you forgot to leave the bitcoin out for years ... some will freeze the money as you left out for too long due its policy but some will let you grab your fund with special conditions.
I had that experience so yeah better to withdraw everything!

Initially everyone was very enthusiastic when there was a country like El Salvador that legalized bitcoin as a currency or legal tender. But that all changed when the people in it disagreed or opposed the government. This caused a deep turmoil in all circles of society, but it is possible that this problem will be resolved one day.
Well a frontal idea will always attract a frontal reactions as well , so i think they are pretty much aware about this before they announce the project , you might find it wrong in approaching but you can still figure out the other approach options till it become a success one .

I still believe el salvador would be one of huge example on how bitcoin adoption should be made , even if they completely fail , the next one would be successfull ... just the matter of time though.

The problem is that with such an uncertain performance, Bayern could once again miss out on the Champions League title. Last season, Bayern also looked great from the start (and in the Bundesliga too) - they scored a lot of goals but also conceded a lot. The pattern is repeating this season, with Bayern risking get an inconvenient/lucky Champions League opponent and be knockouted early on.

Well the good thing is that we are still so early in this season, so i would say it is way better to have a series of bad results and maybe even a bad performance now then later in the season in april and may when the very big and very important games are played in the playoff round of the Champions League.
That being said, i think it is highly likely that Bayern will miss out on the Champions League title this year. Not because they are bad, i think they are one of the big favorites, but still it is just so hard to win this title. Just look at Manchester City they were the best team of Europe for the last 3 years now or so and they will have not won the CL. You also need luck to win it.
Luck is not something concrete to talk about.

You cannot take it as a parameter though , september are indeed a nightmare for bayern ... that's why there is a rumor that tuchel prepared to take this job or he might take the old lady juventus job as allegri might be in danger  to leave the club . Anybody interested in betting for the next manager to be fired?
758  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin bear market over? on: September 19, 2022, 11:23:32 PM
2 days ago I was surprised because the price of Bitcoin drops more than 12%, this is a signal that the market is still fluctuating and still red, the standard for saying recovered is certainly varied, for me Bitcoin recovers if the assets I have bought and according to the calculation at least the price of Bitcoin $ 42K.
I think that now, a few days after your last surprise, you are even more surprised because today bitcoin was down to 18k. At this rate, bitcoin could break a new bottom very soon because this is not the first time it has tested the support line. If bitcoin falls below the last bottom, crypto winter will be here for a long time to come. Especially since there is no more big news, like ETH to POS, and it is unclear what to attract people to crypto.
Well we bounced back to nearly $20k now.

Touching 18.2k for few minutes only yesterday but now we looks safe to break another $20k line and move sideway like what most people predicted.
I was thought that we are going to lose the final support at $18k by yesterday but i was wrong , we will just having good time sclaping at the current price range.

Barcelona can beat Madrid but it won't be easy for Barcelona for this to happen, is either Barcelona win the match or it will end up in  a draw but the game will be tough for both team.  Real Madrid knows right now Barcelona is only the challenger thet have in laliga. Why I feel Barcelona can win Real Madrid because Lewandowski Barcelona is having.
Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are powerful this season and you could expect everything until the last round imo this time. What will make the difference is el classico between these two clubs! 16 October will be the first face to face.
Lewandowski is surely one of the worst nightmares for every Barca opponent but he isn't the only one scoring there which makes Barca more threatening.
Before the El classico there might be lots of reason to change sides because both clubs are in good shape If Lewandoski is a nightmare to every Barca opponent remember Rûidiger and Alaba will gladly play their life out to be his biggest obstacle. Reserving the predictions till the match draws more closer is what i have chosen because the qualities of both clubs seems endless
We have witnessed the scenes in a pre-season match where el classico remain elclassico even at the pre-season / friendly match , it was a heating game and yeah high tension like used to be , we will see much more entertaining and interesting game later next month .

Both perform really well so far , superior and the climax will occurred in the el classico match.

what do you guys think about leicester city? so far this club has been earned only 1 point. That must be a shame for the leicester's coach. Did you guys think leicester will shacked the current coach with the new coach? In my opinion if leicester is in a very difficult situation right now consider about it been placed at the bottom along with 2 teams. In my opinion if leicester will be loosint until 10 matches in a row and leicester may be going to the earth.

It will likely be for Leicester City to change their coach if their play and strategy would not bear fruit, for Leicester this is not quite looking good for them, the next match for them could be a great match and that is the Nottingham Forrest that is likely they will need to win this to get 1 win, for the Premier League, and Nottingham Fores could be a start for them to get their 1st win for this season,


They have to react quick otherwise they might digging their own grave soon.

Before it's too late , things must be completely changed , from the managerial team to the squad composition. Sad to see a giant killer like leicester have to fight at the bottom , despite yeah it's only 7 games but things could be much worse isn't it?

But judging from their performance they are pretty much hard for them to get a win, many have thought that they will have a change of performance for this season because they have shown great performance against Manchester United, Man United only got 1 goal while Leicester got nothing but their defense have really improved, but this could just be fluked and pretty much Manchester was just having difficult time aswell,


But at the other hand im a bit happy to see this leicester having the only team that got no single winning which means the next match the odds for leicester to win gonna be bigger and bigger odds due this condition and i love that kind situation while leicester actually capable to win the next match against nottingham at 3rd oct.

Im going to bet for leicester to get their first winning!
