Yes, it is a surprising result, Roma won against Empoli by scoring 7 goals. It something rarely happens in Serie A that a team could scored more than 5 goals in a match. Moreover, it is the first win for AS Roma, they made a ad start in this season because they never won in the first 3 matches. Well, finally we can see that AS Roma returns to the right way.

Sure, Lukaku perfomed well today. He probably wants to show to people that he still has a great skill as a striker. He also want to ensure AS Roma that he should play as the main striker in AS Roma. I think it is a great decision to make a duo Lukaku-Dybala as the strikers of AS Roma.
Roma first win at the start of this season was not even half-hearted. Roma was able to win this match with a big score because of the poor performance of their opponents in this match. Well they finally got 3 points and they are getting more confident for the upcoming match. So, looking at the results of this week's matches, the results were unexpected, as Inter Milan managed to win the match against AC Milan with a score of 5-1. Juventus even managed to win the match against Lazio with a score of 3-1. This week it looks like the big teams are winning the matches with the many goals they score.

For Roma, this victory is quite meaningful for them because their quality was really doubted at the start of this season after having difficulty winning. Statistically, they really gave no mercy to Empoli in this match because they managed to complete every opportunity perfectly.

Real Sociedad was leading 1-0 in the first half. But Valverde scored in the first minute of the second half. And now the match is tied at 1-1. Bellingham, Valverde and Joselu's performances were good enough today. But we haven't seen a better performance from young Rodrygo. This match clearly shows that Madrid lack experienced strikers in their squad. Madrid's defense and midfield are very strong. But they are lagging behind due to lack of experienced finishers. Madrid had the opportunity to score several goals. However, Modrich is in Madrid's squad. After 70 minutes, maybe Ancelotti will bring Modrich on as a substitute.
The final result was 2-1 for Real Madrid's victory in the match against Real Sociedad. If you look at the course of the match, Real Sociedad surprised the fans at the Bernabeu stadium because they scored an early goal which gave them an early lead in this match. But Real Madrid doesn't want to repeat the bad history when they were beaten by Real Sociedad with a score of 2-0. Thus they continued to try and build attacks in the second half until Valverde didn't need much time to equalize. By successfully equalizing, Real Madrid continued to increase the tempo of their game until Joselu was able to put Real Madrid in the lead with a goal he scored in the 60th minute. Even the 2-1 lead lasted until the match ended, winning 3 points made Real Madrid return to the top of the standings and maintain their trend is to achieve consecutive wins at the start of this season.

Before this game, Atlético had no defeats and the overall score was 10-1. And such a collapse with Valencia. I think many bettors added Atlético’s victory to their multi-bets and now they greatly regret it. By the way, statistically (I didn’t watch the game itself, not even the highlights), I don’t see any reason for a big defeat. The score could be 2-1, 3-2, 2-2, etc. Apparently today is just not Atletico's day. As for Valencia, even despite such volatility in results, they are clearly aiming for a better result than 16th place last season.
Statistically, the Valencia vs Atletico Madrid match was very balanced where they traded attacks in this match. But unfortunately for Atletico Madrid they were unable to score a goal in this match because Morata and Griezmann were unable to complete the several opportunities they had. Valencia were not favorites before this match started, but they were able to dispel that assumption by successfully beating Atletico Madrid with a score of 3-0.

With this victory, Valencia finally managed to end a bad streak in their last two matches. The additional 3 points made Valencia's ranking rise to 5th in the standings. Diego Simeone was very annoyed with his team's poor performance in this match even though they played with a perfect squad, but he had several strong reasons to say that his players' energy was too weak because they had just returned after playing for their respective national teams.

As long as Manchester United cannot improve their poor defense I think the competition in the group stage against Bayern will not be able to happen but I still feel that utilizing the 2nd place in the standings is still possible for Manchester United.
But the problem now is how Manchester United improve their performance now. Looking at the match against Brighton this time we seem to be able to judge that Manchester United's performance to this day is completely unpredictable and their defense to date is one of the worst defenses for the start of the EPL season so if they can't fix this I think the competition for the EPL and Champions League race is clearly impossible but if they can change completely on all fronts then for the Champions League group competition against Bayern is still open.
I think Manchester United's defense is not only very weak but their front line is also very weak. The defeat against Brighton made Manchester United's progress even worse at the start of this season. So, if we talk about the Champions League, of course in pot A, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are very favored to qualify for the next round. But looking at Manchester United's recent performance, it seems like they will have difficulties in every match in the Champions League.

However, in today's match, Erik Ten Hag did not play Maguire, so fans cannot blame him because Maguire is always the target of ridicule if Manchester United loses the match he plays. Therefore, today's defeat was purely due to the Manchester United team's instability in maintaining their performance both in defense and the front line. Their game was really bad and they had to bear the shame of being beaten in front of their supporters.

AC Milan's performance in the first half was not like the previous 3 matches. AC Milan had difficulty penetrating Inter Milan's defense. The 3-5-2 formation used by Inzaghi succeeded in stopped every AC Milan attack and was able to made a counter attack quickly. I'm not sure AC Milan can score 2 goals in the 2nd half. The possible things is, Milan create a new record, losing 5 times from Inter in a row.  Cry
AC Milan was defeated by Inter Milan with a big score in today's match. I think AC Milan is no longer strong enough to beat Inter Milan because in fact they have suffered consecutive defeats when facing Inter Milan. The most interesting thing is Simone Inzaghi where he was able to revive Inter Milan's glorious era under his tutelage. Inter Milan is currently one of the most consistent teams in Serie A, having managed to win consecutive matches in the first 4 matches this season.

The defeat in this derby made AC Milan extend their bad record of meetings with Inter Milan because AC Milan has suffered 5 defeats when facing Inter Milan. I believe that this big defeat must be immediately evaluated by Pioli because if not they will be even further behind Juventus or Inter Milan in the standings.

PSG didn't respect Marco Verratti at all in this summer and they literally made him leave. While we know Marco Verratti wanted to stay in PSG and continue his career there, but they made this player choose the offer he got from the Qatar team. Verratti had a good performance during the time when he was playing for PSG.
He played in 416 games and scored 11 goals also he helped PSG to win the French League for nine times.
Now PSG is going to have a ceremony and that's how they say thanks to this player.


That's the nature of PSG, where PSG releases players who have been buying the team for more than 11 years in a way that is not very harmonious. Because there was no farewell that was quite special like what other teams like Real Madrid did with Benzema. Verratti is of course quite disappointed with the treatment of PSG management, but that is what he experienced. Well, playing in the Qatar league will indeed make him sink in his career because the Qatar League is not as attractive as the Saudi Arabian League where European players choose to go to the Saudi Arabian League compared to other Asian leagues.

But whatever his decision, we hope he achieves success in his future career. Currently, the PSG squad is still not very strong after the major overhaul they carried out in this season's transfer window. In today's match, PSG suffered a defeat at home which meant they failed to close the points gap with Monaco this week.

Incredible what is happening with Pogba.

The verification of the positive results was supposed to be on the 20th of the month but it has been postponed by 2 weeks.

Why? Because the dude responsible for the verification is busy.


I have no words,
In my opinion it will not have a positive impact on Pogba even if they delay the verification of the final results but Pogba has been kicked out of the Juventus squad at this time. So he will not defend Juventus before the final verdict is decided on his case. Apart from that, the case experienced by Pogba also benefits Juventus because Juventus immediately took a stance to cut Pogba's salary. So Pogba has experienced bad luck and I think he really regrets his actions using drugs.

Juventus will face Lazio in tomorrow's match, of course this match is quite tough for them because previously Juventus was held to a draw by Bologna. So it is believed that Pogba's absence will not have a big impact on Juventus because Juventus has so far been able to rely on the services of Miretti and Fagioli. Well, both of them will be Allegri's choices for tomorrow's match.

~~.. and maybe even having some ideas about how long it might take to replenish that fund in the future.. 3-6 months?  maybe a year? 
That's what hinders my investment rate if I have to act aggressively in a bear market situation. Yes, to cover emergency fund reserves will take time and that could hinder one of the DCA options that I have done so far. So at this point the cushion we have is not too strong to move aggressively in accumulating BTC so I have to adjust this step well so as not to disturb me at the DCA level at each stage. However, for those who have large emergency fund reserves, they can certainly move more aggressively in the last few days to accumulate BTC below $26k. In this case, every decision is certainly supported by their financial aspects and will not interfere with their DCA strategy.

Vallecano will welcome Alaves at home. After 2 quite impressive victories, Vallecano lost 0-7 at home to Atletico Madrid. That failure substantially impacted the spirit and confidence of Coach Francisco and his team. But meeting an opponent as weak as Alaves is a very favorable opportunity, and perhaps they can do it even though it is complex. Vallecano has home field advantage and will make the most of it to win 3 points against Alaves. Alaves' weak defense away from home also contributed to Vallecano's victory. Vallecano is not too strong in attack, but they will score at least 1 goal to win.
These two teams both have equal strength this season where Rayo Vallecano and Alaves have the same series of results, namely two defeats and two wins and what makes them appear different is in terms of the goals they conceded in the previous 4 matches.
So my strongest prediction is that this match will probably end in a draw. Maybe for Alaves they have good enough capital to face this match because they recorded a win in the previous match which means they might be able to continue their winning trend in Week 5 of Laliga this season.

Though I'm yet to confirm the news of Kylian Mbappe's contract extension with Paris Saint Germaine but the I already know that the both parties had earlier reached an agreement to extend his contract till the summer of 2025 so that  when the Frenchman will be leaving in the summer to Real Madrid, they'll make a reasonable amount of money from his sales.
Kylian Mbappe is one of the best players on the planet at the moment and would definitely do well wherever he finds himself because of the football abilities he has. Real Madrid knows how important he'll be for them if they finally sign him and I'm sure they'll do anything possible to bring him to Santiago Bernabeu next summer.
Mbappe will officially have a contract with PSG until the end of this season but he has a clause to activate one season until 2025 but he didn't do that. So the news circulating seems to be that there is no recent news about Mbappe renewing his contract, so Mbappe is still one of the players who has free transfer status after this season ends. I think if Mbappe renews his contract of course many media will publish news about Mbappe but for now there is no latest news about Mbappe contract at all.

So there is more open hope for other teams to sign Mbappe for free next season because he is a free transfer player. For now, it seems that PSG will continue to persuade Mbappe to renew his contract in order to remember Mbappe longer with PSG. So we'll just have to wait and see whether Luis Campos will succeed in persuading Mbappe to sign a new contract.

Well I quite understand what you are saying my friend, basically every market participant has his own way to invest wherever it is. Okay maybe you are one of those who are always patiently waiting for significant bearish conditions to then open an investment, and well that is indeed quite good if you can patiently wait for the moment. Honestly, I'm not saying that's the case, and maybe most market participants will do the same thing, especially for long-term targets. 

And yes I agree with the opportunity you said, because indeed now is the right moment to then buy or collect more bitcoin, we can see now bitcoin is experiencing a price correction and the price is now almost touching support a few months ago. So basically if indeed you have the ability financially to then allocate a little of your money for bitcoin then I would say this is the right moment that you can take, but well I hope you will use money that might not be at risk if it is lost, because as we know the market is very volatile so at any time you can experience losses if the market is not in your favor. You use DCA, I agree to this because I think this is a strategy that is more supportive of your financial condition and with DCA it is safer.
In fact, it is impossible for them to miss this bearish moment to accumulate BTC. Yes, every opportunity that comes is an advantage that can be exploited. If you throw away this opportunity, it means you are throwing away the opportunity to get BTC at a low price. For me, financial strength is one of the things that can make you act more aggressively in a bearish situation, but if our finances are not too strong then the wiser option is of course DCA.
 Some strong arguments about this decline are due to the issue of FTX which will sell their BTC holdings which has made the market situation change rapidly in recent days. This is a profit that can be obtained for those who are patient in waiting for bearish conditions to accumulate BTC. Well, on another point, it remains sustainable for the long term and you can feel comfortable with the profits that come your way, keep buying at low prices whatever strategy you use. keep buying and holding.
772  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do you suggest I handle incorrect price predictions? on: September 13, 2023, 10:45:00 PM
Wow, so many encouraging responses more than I expected. I have sieved through them and learnt a great deal. In the meantime, no more expert opinions to friends. If I have to do this then it should be anonymous but no more predictions. I'll just go back to my bitcoin goal and keep investing a specific every other month
You have given up and it seems that you are not strong enough to continue making predictions even if the predictions you say are wrong. I even often experience things like that where we often predict the price every month but it's still far from our predictions but it's just fun for us.

We will see a Bitcoin Halving next year so I remain optimistic that the price of bitcoin will experience a stronger increase next year. So one thing I really agree with you is that gradual buying is a pretty good action for accumulating BTC. This month it might be difficult for us to see the Btc price reach $30k, but that doesn't really matter because we can buy at a cheap price during this downturn.
773  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good time to sell? on: September 13, 2023, 10:32:05 PM
For now, perhaps many people's dream is to see BTC at $100k and that will be our target to sell some of our BTC holdings. But to know in detail when that will happen, of course everyone will not know. In other words, investing in BTC has a better direction to target their dream of selling BTC, whether it is passing the new ATH or approaching the new ATH and it all depends on the target of each individual's stance.

Now for the second answer |  How can we say that the price of BTC has reached its peak while currently the BTC price is below a 61% decline from the highest price. So it is not appropriate for those who invest in the long term to sell their BTC holdings below the highest price. Unless they are in an urgent situation or need money quickly and have no other choice but to sell BTC and for sure they will regret that decision. So, if they trade daily, they will definitely continue to sell when profits come to them.
774  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: September 13, 2023, 10:16:32 PM
Current Bitcoin price.

The price is going up and I believe it will still come down to $25-100 because the way the price is going up, it is not going up at a good speed. But I believe that before this month kicks off maybe the price of Bitcoin will hit $28k, although the price has been in the $28k range and above but has still come down to $25,948.02, so I guess this is the right time to invest in the dip. This month of September, Bitcoin is moving like this. I am not sure if this opportunity might come again because it has been in this range for over a week. That's why I suggest buying and accumulating more in this present period will be better, believing that the month of October will be different than this present month.
Hello rachael9385 the advice you gave is good enough to continue buying in the dip and holding in the long term. Everyone will take advantage of this moment to accumulate more BTC and of course we all have the same hope, namely expecting prices to be different in the coming months. Apart from accumulating BTC at the current price, of course you also have to make purchases in stages to accumulate Bitcoin. Falling and rising always happen and at the same time we can buy BTC at different price levels.

I think in this thread those who bought had the same goal of holding it long term. In fact, some of them are not too interested in aggressive investment techniques in accumulating BTC because they aim for cheaper prices in all their entries by doing it with DCA.

The use of such drugs is strictly prohibited in football or sport in general, but somehow Pogba seems to have broken it. I don't really expect him to do that because of the risks to his career if proven, but the career path of a footballer is very uncertain.

In the past, many Brazilian players ended up throwing away their football careers due to drinking and drug use. I don't really remember who they were, but I honestly didn't expect Pogba to end his football career in that way. Of course that would have a bad effect on him, but I wonder if that's true?
Pogba career wasn't very good after his return from Manchester United because he couldn't contribute much due to injuries and in addition to the doping case. Indeed, the use of such drugs is strictly prohibited and in fact this is quite a serious case that Pogba must accept, he could have his contract terminated by Juventus if he is truly proven to have done doping.

Juventus was hit by many cases after last season where points were deducted and this season the cases happened to their players. I think something like this will disrupt the team's performance on the field because a problem that the team continues to experience will make their players lose concentration.

I am growing tired of this news, if Mbappe is to move to Real Madrid he should just make the move right away, same with PSG who also have not decided on what to do with Mbappe. This is a deal I fully support and want to happen though I had big expectations for this summer’s transfer window for unfortunately the deal wasn’t possible now I have to wait and anticipate for January window and see if finally this deal can be pushed through.
I think Real Madrid will move quickly to bring in Mbappe in the winter transfer window because the depth of the Real Madrid squad really needs a truly aggressive striker to be their goal machine. Joselu performed well but he will not be able to make a big contribution like Benzema has done so Real Madrid will have to look for another striker in the January transfer window.

Moreover, this season Champions League competition is quite fierce because the Manchester City team is already very strong and if Real Madrid is unable to bring in quality stickers in the winter transfer window then the target of winning the UCL top could fail again this season.

It's up to you how to determine predictions for the Everton vs Arsenal match, I mean Arsenal is a team that is really expected to win. I don't think the number of goals scored in a match would be anything interesting to predict, but of course some gamblers might consider it a good opportunity to bet on.

Arsenal's victory should not be easy because Everton is playing at home. Everton are not at their best, but we will never know for sure whether they are better after the International break or whether they are still just as bad. Arteta seems optimistic about this match, as do Arsenal fans. Arsenal's odds are not very high, but I think it will be profitable anyway.
Everton performance was very unstable at the start of this season. Even though they will be playing at home, their two home matches ended in defeat, such as when they were beaten by Fulham and Wolves, so there is no big impact on them playing in front of their supporters. I'm sure Arsenal can overcome Everton and get full points in this match, especially since their chances are quite big because their opponents are in an unbalanced situation on the standings.

But I hope Arsenal don't lose against weak teams because last season they often lost points when facing lower teams. Therefore, Arteta must be able to make changes this season to protect their chances of not losing points in vain.

It looks like Tottenham's winning streak will be 4 games by their upcoming game against Sheffield home. This is an amazing way to start a season for Tottenham. Kane's leaving the team hasn't affected them negatively because they are playing more effective as a team right now. It seems like there is a good relationship with their new manager.

While his system is working well for the team this is another game they should be winning comfortably. They scored 5 goals against Burnley away. I wouldn't be surprised if they do a similar thing against Sheffield as well. Tottenham are eager to be in a title race this time as it seems.  Smiley

I remember a few weeks ago when Tottenham lost Harry Kane, the coach of Tottenham said he didn't lose anything and they don't need to fill his place in the team. I was surprised when they said that because Harry Kane was a great palyer there. Now we can see leaving Tottenham by Kane didn't change anything at all and they had a good start while the best performance I saw from this team during this season was against Manchester United in the first week when they won the game with a 2-0 result.

Of course, if Tottenham are able to defend consistently in every match this season then Harry Kane departure will not have a big impact on them. Apart from that I think a big impact is starting to be seen in their front line because Richarlison was not in his best form at the start of the season because he was Ange Postecoglou main choice but his performance was far from expectations. Richarlison has played 4 matches at the start of this season but he failed to contribute through goals or assists.

So, little by little, Tottenham will feel like they have lost their goal machine, Harry Kane. However, Son brilliant performance has made Tottenham run at the start of this season look perfect. I'm sure they will improve in the winter transfer window to strengthen their attack line.

I can't find any reason for such sudden degradation of Lens. This team has performed well in the last season as well. We have seen excellent performances from Lens in almost every match. And at the end of the season, Lens' points gap with PSG was only 1 point. And so this season too, it was expected that Lens would dominate Ligue 1 this season too and fight for the title with PSG. But their performance in the first three matches was very poor. Bonding between players is also very weak. And their match strategy is not good either. The players are not confident enough. The coach should try to boost the confidence of the players. If not, we will not see a good performance from the team this season.
I think it's still early in the season so there's still a lot of time that Lens can use as best as possible to improve their quality in Ligue 1. It's a bit surprising because last season Lens position was runner up. but this season Lens is at the bottom of the standings because of several defeats  what they experienced. I think there is one thing that makes their game quite bad, especially because of the influence the players have had in the previous season and in this season.

In fact, Lens was so easily beaten by their opponents that this was a quite significant reversal for their performance. Lens defense is quite bad because they have conceded 10 goals in the first 4 matches this season. I think they have to return to their best form in the next match when Lens faces Metz in front of his supporters.

I think that you shall also aware with so many problems that happened with united. Munchen is also far superior compared to manchester united. Even though premier league was far competitive but did you remember that last season MU was losing in europea league which is even worse compared to the champion league. this is a sense reason to call that MU has slight chance compared to bayern at this moment. I don't mind another club like copenhagen and galatasaray as these clubs need to pass mU before it will be able to beat bayern.
The possibility owned by that some mediocre clubs like galatasaray and copenhagen were far less but these clubs may able to give us surprise results.

Manchester united needs to be careful against galatasaray caused by it can be a threat for MU during the group stage. EPL was most competitive league but it doesn't mean MU can beat any clubs easily.
Bayern is far consistent compared to the united in UCL.
The quality of Bayern Munich is really taken into account by their opponents this season because Bayern Munich is the strongest team in the Champions League every season and they can even easily finish the group stage. Manchester United's performance has often been unstable this season, even though Erik Ten Hag has recruited new players, they have not been able to have a big influence on Manchester United game.

In group A, only Manchester United and Bayern Munich are the favorites to progress to the next round. However, every Champions League season there are always surprises in the group stages and we often see teams that are favorites being eliminated early. Galatasaray is not very strong at European level but they can put a lot of pressure on big teams, I certainly hope they can be better than Manchester United even though that will be impossible.
