Manchester city may have won yesterday but in the last two games Manchester city hasn't really leaved up to the expectations people had placed on them, I would say that the Manchester city of last season is far better than the Manchester city of this season even though they win games I think they have actually dropped in form and aren't winning matches they should be winning convincingly.

Their recent form can also ve attributed to injuries, some of their top players are injured, players like Kevin debruyn, hopefully they can hang on till the squad is complete.
Yes, they have really been missing KDB especially Haaland but the fact is that is not that they are not as good like last season, most teams has been in form or at least better than last season and so you can't say that especially how excellent Liverpool has been this season.

It's unbelievable that Manchester United draw the match because the moral of Manchester United from the beginning of the match everyone taught that Manchester will win the match, I only watch the first half and rush to meet something else but having in mind that Manchester United have already defeat Galatasaray, I was having that confidence that galatasaray will not score and even though they scored a goal Manchester United will still add more pressure to score another goal that will make them to win, they gave Hakim Ziyech the privilege to score first goal and second goal, so the would have ended at least 2:1 but its lapses of the players of Manchester that contribute for galatasaray to equalised this match to be draw.
It's Manchester United don't be surprised they are usually relaxed or over confident after taking a two goal leads and when Galatasaray scored 2, they already did start feeling the pressure and the current Manchester United squad can't control pressure. They probably would have lost the game if there was more time

Trading and investment should be done with emotions Infact any financial systems that holds strong to emotions will fail.
Its sad that almost all beginners in anything always wants to speak the learning process and start making money, this actually can likely be a cause of greed or ignorance, no matter how much financial down one must be, its not possible to skip the learning process in order to earn. I no longer hold much regard for signals, I see it somehow as gambling (like you are getting a betting code) if the market goes out against you, you won't know what was wrong with the analysis given to you only the owner of the signal will his/her flaws and continue growing while the beginner remains stagnant or regress.
Though it's also good for beginners to compare their analysis with professional but they should keep in mind of human error in case there is an obvious error my the professionals analysis, they won't just accept it because he or she is superior to them in trading

Liverpool has got very experienced players who have experience with the Europa and other leagues aswell but then it's not a guarantee, it's not certainty that they are going to win the Europa, there are other team who has been so experienced and still lost in league games.

We all anticipate Liverpool winning the Europa this season as they as well have that as their target but then there's still much time to be so certain about their wins, as usual they may drop form along the line and many other factors could contribute to their performance but overall on paper Liverpool is the favourite to win the Europa but other teams shouldn't be underestimated especially this who will be joining from the champions league.
Most of us know why we have that strong believe that Liverpool will win the Europa league and this is because they are among the big teams, which when they are consistent they continue progressively and this is what we are seeing in them, the team and coach is determined to win this trophy and they will win it. It will be hard for any opposition team to defeat them even from the ones coming from Champions league
764  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: November 28, 2023, 05:39:00 PM
Am actually rooting for Newcastle united to claim the 3points in their today encounter against PSG shortly. What they aim at is the round of 16 where it becomes possible for them to make it into the Europa league incase their champions league dream gets crushed.
It's good advise though that they focus more on helping their current position on the premier league table, but for what it's worth, PSG ain't doing any better this season and with the kind of players in their squad and their goal scoring ability as of late.
Newcastle actually have a chance they are playing against Psg after defeating Chelsea 4 goals to 1, but in as much as I will want Newcastle to win this won't be easy since they trash Psg 4 goals to one and if Enrique have a back to back lost to Newcastle, there will definitely be a pressure on him.

I won't bet on this match and why? The main reason is manchester city has been qualified for the knock out stage. Pep may be using the secondary squad against leipzig and i don't even think that's a wise decision to bet on this match.
Manchester city will not be playing use the main squad. Pep will try to avoid the risk by putting the main players to play in this game. This game is not that important for city yet we will see that once line up will be announced.
We can also measure how strong city's squad compared with leipzig.
I don't think Pep will see this game as a casual one since they already qualified because they have drawn last two matches in Epl and that's not something a coach like Pep will ever take likely, he probably will use the main team and to get the mentality that man City is not regressing.
765  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Authorities Are Not Smart Enough to Do This on: November 28, 2023, 03:54:27 PM
The two strategies, in my estimation, for dealing with Bitcoin are to fix fiat currency and, second, to promote an approach of ignoring Bitcoin rather than attacking it.
The fait currency can never be fixed, I don't think any currency can ever be entirely fixed and if this is done, bitcoin won't be highly affected by this but those trading currency pairs and the government and economist knows why this isn't feasible
The government can never ignore Bitcoin and even if they choose to attack it Bitcoin will continue to grow, while they  ignoring it will make its adoption faster, just like how it was when it was created in 2009, I believe they never thought it adoption rate would have grown this fast.

In as much that government are against Bitcoin is only from the fact that they want to control it because its bigger than them. Most government officials will never want to see bitcoin fall because they are also investing in bitcoin (nobody will ever turn down a sure means of making more money legitimately) and since some of them are in the position to cause FUD, they will do just that in order to make the market favour them more

This is already being done and does not necessarily needs to be done by the government but the business management heads , there are alot of Nigerians who are into digital marketing and this goes by than buying and selling of goods but also services, digital marketing is broad but will give one common example which is in this Forum, both of us are marketing two different Casino, while yours is bitvest, mine is Sherbet, though I don't really know much what yours is about, you can know how amazing mine is here:Re: Sherbet.com - All-New Social Casino & Sportsbook.

 Its not an issue of the government, some businesses use both marketing (physical and digital) while others stick with one and in as much as transportation fees is choking some people are given monthly allowances for it while some are unfortunate not to earn but that doesn't they may quit their jobs and if it is possible for them to it online they may give this reason to their business management and the management may choose to accept it or reject it.

People will care for things they priotise maybe because of the price or other reasons but in the end it all depends on individual preference, hardware wallet is expensive to some while others not really so. For me being able to take care of your property is discipline especially things like this, cars, phone, laptop and others. Though this maybe expensive to the individual still yet they may not be able to properly care for it and they start  saying this doesn`t last long wth me
769  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 26, 2023, 06:23:31 PM
Since being beaten by Chelsea at home with a big score, Tottenham have no longer won a match in the Premier League, including against Wolves and now Aston Villa too. So this is really quite surprising because at the start of this season Tottenham were leaders of the standings, but today Tottenham have just given up their top four position to Aston Villa. So this is of course very bad for Tottenham even though I wouldn't say Tottenham is a rubbish team because there are many teams that are much worse than Tottenham in the Premier League this season and they all don't deserve to be called rubbish either.
Why being suprised by Tottenham recent form, when it has always been like this probably every seasons, they be flying high and then drop and continue vice versa till the end of the season, they are just inconsistent certainly worst than the inconsistency of Arsenal while Chelsea is more of what would be called rubbish, their inconsistency is this worst, the chelsea squad has much to learn only few players are actually doing well and i will continue to say Sanchez is not the right no_1 keeper for us.

Man united already leading 2 to nil, while chelsea has to take a 4 - 1 loss to Newcastle after the international break and those shameless Man u fan will soon start bragging as if they are actually really better.

I would not state Liverpool are favourites to win at Manchester City but I do think they will win, or the game will end in a draw. West Ham also are playing away at Burnley therefore it will be a difficult game but overall they should take all three point and the same for Chelsea, they are away at Newcastle but should take all three points.

As you have put forward your opinions, I will give mine. Let us see at the end of the games who has more correct  Grin

(A) Manchester City vs Liverpool  
(A) Burnley vs West Ham United
(D) Luton Town vs Crystal Palace
(A) Newcastle United vs Chelsea
(H) Nottingham Forest vs Brighton and Hove Albion
(D) Sheffield United vs Bournemouth
(H) Brentford vs Arsenal
I got more Grin, The ones i got incorrectly is glowed in red and same as yours
Man City vs Liverpool (d)
Burnley vs Brighton (A)
Luton Town vs Crystal Palace (A)
Newcastle United vs Chelsea (A)
Nottingham Forest vs Brighton and Hove Albion (A)
Sheffield United vs Bournemouth (H)
Brentford vs Arsenal (A)

Liverpool (win/draw)
West Ham United (win)
Luton (Win/draw)
Chelsea (win)
Brighton and Hove Albion (win)
Sheffield United (win/draw)
Arsenal (win)
Did you place a wager on this?
Yes, I stake but a little, I'm not certain of all of them but this is just how I believe the match will go but I don't really worry about it, since. Liverpool has a better chance of winning and we can see it, how they have been playing this season, either getting a win or draw expect from the unfortunate event against Spurs.
West Ham is up against Burnley who sits bottom of the table while they are at the 9th position.
Chelsea match will be tough but as long as they continue with their recent form it is a win.
Brighton and Nottingham are both having injuries woes but Brighton has it more but I still think they will win this match since they have a better percentage of scoring when they have a chance.
774  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Make una dey careful when trading on: November 24, 2023, 09:24:58 PM
so to go straight to the point my friend who is a bit new to crypto-currency was telling me about here experience sell her Bitcoin a popular exchange she has already understood some of the basic on how to sell but this Time while selling the buyer asked for here number which she gave and then chatted her demanding that they trade outside the exchange, and even offered a higher deal than the exchange. this is a big red flag because you a vulnerable to getting scammed if you are trading with someone you don't know off the exchange no matter how juicy the offer is.
One thing I have learnt from doing p2p transaction, juicy offer is a bait to get the naive or greedy ones. Another red flag way to know is they will then say you should send first before their payment. They may even say they are victim of p2p scam just to give you a false assurance that they are not scammers, but don't fall them. In fact do not be the first sender before receiving since you are sure that you will definitely pay once you receive the bitcoin or money and not otherwise because no body is to be trusted online.
775  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Who Are Miners in Blockchain. Complete Guide For Beginners on: November 24, 2023, 06:49:27 PM
  • Decentralization is a key part of building trust in the blockchain network, and mining helps it happen. There isn't a single point of control like in standard centralized systems.  Miners check activities as a group, and a distributed network helps them come to an agreement. There is no longer any need to accept a central authority.
It's be noted that not all Blockchain are entirely decentralise while others are more centralise than others. Bitcoin uses pow mechanisms which is makes it totally decentralise and not like others that use the PoS ( proof of stake), POA (Proof of Authority) and others.
They are other POW Blockchain but are not as secure as Bitcoin and so they have been affected with the 51% attack example are bitcoinCash and bitcoin gold and others. The 51% attack is not possible on Bitcoin currently because the cost to get the computational power and resources to successfully affect Bitcoin is not feasible and this why we can say its impossible for the 51% hack to affect it. While others of the PoW Blockchain still suffer this, is because their number of miners are small comparably to the Bitcoin network.

Regulatory policies is becoming a very serious drawback for Bitcoin/cryptocurrency services in the United States, Binance also recently left the U.S. market and so many other services would follow suit as well.
The regulatory policies has really indeed become but this is what we are to expect especially from the mess CEX has been creating this past years (including this).
This will definitely make investors especially in the US to be weary of bitcoin and crypto currency investment but, those who has trust or is able to see early that this is not the end of bitcoin and crypto currency will go for the use of DEX and non-custodial wallet and this will limit the dependency of CEX by investors and after all this is the reason bitcoin was created.

778  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is it possible to mine bitcoin with my laptop? on: November 23, 2023, 08:00:30 PM
I considered purchasing a used ASIC for a low price, but I'm afraid I'll end up with a defective one. An ASIC will probably be too noisy for me to use at home, where I will be mining. After doing some study, I was also considering trying to use the waste heat to offset my house heating, but it just seems too costly and dangerous for what will likely be an essential learning experience.
In as much as mining bitcoin pays, its not profitable for everyone and so you just have to find what is better for you. You can find various ways to earn bitcoin aside mining and of the best is getting paid through bitcoin. I advice you to use the money you wanted to get a ASICS machine to buy and HODL bitcoin with this you will make more money.
So, can I mine bitcoin on a laptop? is my query. I just want to know how it all works; I'm not concerned about making money. With almost no chance of winning the block reward, might I download the bitcoin core, operate a full node, and let it hash away, content with the knowledge I've gathered along the way?
NeuroticFish, as already gave a detailed reason why you can't mine bitcoin with laptops. Also about the node, in Bitcoin you are not paid for running a node.

I think, there is no need to expect Girona players to get injured because anyway, to overtake Girona it is easy of course with rival it by being consistent with good performance too . Because anyway, basically Girona is not a big team and also not a team with above-average quality so therefore, to overtake Girona there is no need to expect Girona players to get injured . At least yes, just put continuous pressure and that can also make Girona slip because ya, the reality is that Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico have quality that cannot be doubted because they have a better winning mentality than Girona.
True but if they can continue like this especially after January next year then their weak mind would be stronger and then the only thing that would stop them will be more likely injuries, we saw that when Monaco won league 1 2016/2017 and Leicester 2015/2016. Before then who was Mbappe, Thomas learn, Kante, Bernado Silva and others. In as much that I'm rooting for them it's more likely Real or Atlético Madrid, since Barca don't really have enough financial capability to replace injured players now.
780  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 23, 2023, 07:08:44 PM
I think what is most important for Chelsea is that there is finally a discussion going on whether they can beat Newcastle or not. A few weeks and months ago Chelsea was not competitive anymore and they lost games that I thought can't be lost by them. But now they are good enough and back in shape to be a threat again for the good teams and I think this is fun again. Chelsea was disappointing like hell for so long and I gave them a few chances to watch a game from time to time, but stopped doing so. Now it is worth tuning in again. I think this is what is really great news.
I think we will be having a constant discussion about this now. After all we all knew Chelsea earlier this season were unlucky with goals but Thank God they are getting better hope they will continue like this.
I think Manchester United were too hasty in signing Rasmus Højlund from Atalanta, especially as he only had 1 season there with 9 goals and 2 assists in 32 appearances in Serie A. Of course Ten Hag is aware of the talent Rasmus Højlund has as a center forward and he can be developed and become one of the best. However, the problem is, the high level of egoism of other Manchester United players has made it difficult for Rasmus Højlund to find himself in the Premier League.
Wow his stat was this bad in his previous club and he was bought in a higher fee than Jackson who has a better stat relating to their previous club, man United literally loves over hyping players they bought which then usually flop.

Rasmus Højlund has so far scored 5 goals in 4 appearances in the Champions League with Manchester United. He hasn't scored a single goal in his 9 Premier League appearances, but if he really gets the support then I'm sure his performance this season will be very good. Just like Haaland, Rasmus Højlund just needs full support to help Manchester United get more goals.
Still in a nutshell he is still the best striker currently in Manchester United, Rashford who was the star player last season has been a shadow of himself again, Anthony and others there is nothing to say about them. Mount might have been the support they signed for him but he is far from that now. My question is why his Bruno not providing him more assist, we know he is pretty good at that
