İlk maçları böylece tamamlamış olduk. Dünkü Bayern Münih - Real Madrid maçı bugünkü maçtan çok daha zevkliydi. Ancelotti yine Manchester City'e karşı benimsediği tarzı kullanarak 2-2 beraberlikle ayrıldı ve evinde kullanabileceği bir avantaj olarak görüyorum bunu. Bugün ise Dortmund PSG'yi 1-0 geçmeyi başardı. PSG inanılmaz sayıda gol kaçırdı. 2. yarıda 2 tane direkten dönen topları vardı. 1-0 avantaj gibi görünse de Dortmund deplasmanda gol atamazsa elenebilir.

Yes this is the nature of Formula 1. You really need to work harder than the other teams to make your upgrades serve a purpose. Mercedes are actually the second richest team after Ferrari now. Normally I would expect them to be able to use this money power effectively. But maybe it isn't that simple for them. Maybe it is because of not having better engineers than their rivals, I don't know. 

Keeping up with Red Bull really looks like a dream this season.    Maybe Red Bull might lose this dominance with new rules and other changes in 2026.

We did it!    We managed to win home in Game 3 to lead the series by 2-1. As we are the seeded team we have a valuable advantage in our hands from now on. Even if this series extends to Game 5 I believe in my team to defeat Monaco to reach Final Four stage.

By the way I must say that I'm surprised with Maccabi Tel Aviv's performance so far. Despite Panathinaikos' much better regular season performance we can't see the same impact in this series. Maccabi Tel Aviv are only 1 win away from winning the series.

Kalan maçlarda ben de Arda'yı düzenli olarak fazla şans bulurken görmek isterim. Muhtemelen sıradaki Cadiz maçında da ilk 11'de onu görebiliriz çünkü yine Ancelotti bence rotasyon yapacak. Birkaç gün sonrasında Bayern Münih rövanşı var. Ondan sonraki maçlarda da bol süre alırsa zaten Arda için altın fırsat olur. Ancelotti bu yaz Arda takımda kalacak diyor. Real Madrid oyuncu yetiştirme konusunda çok iyi takım tabi yani Arda düzenli oynamazken bile gelişebilir. Bunun yine de düzenli oynamanın yerini tutabileceğini düşünmüyorum.

It really feels terrible mate. It happened to me last season as well and that was because of not setting any alarm. But I learned my lesson from that and started to set alarms. But this time it happened to me again for a different reason. This has been an inevitable result for me.    No I'm not taking it as a criticism of course mate. Being late by only a few minutes sucks but sometimes it happens indeed.

There is a huge difference between Aston Villa and Olympiacos. We could have also eliminated Olympiacos in the previous round if we played better. Anyways Olympiacos will most probably adopt a defensive strategy. There is no other way to do better for them. But I don't think even that would be helpful for them. I expect a big win by Aston Villa home.

I really like Emery's system. Thanks to his strategies we can see Aston Villa winning the Conference League title and finishing the Premier League in top 4 both.

Guys you can't imagine how sad I am for being late for my submission.    I have been in the countryside for a while and I have a really weak signal here so I can't use the internet comfortably. This cost me wasting a week in the league here. First the elimination from the cup and now this... I have been the leader in Division 1 but after this round I'm going to lose a big advantage. From now on I will do my best to make up for this week.

Ben de bu olaya Twitter'da rastladım. Yumurta atmanın yanı sıra gece vakti otobanda yolda yürüyerek arabalara kaza yaptırmaya çalışanlar falan da oluyormuş. Video kayıtlarını izleyince insan şaşırmadan edemiyor. Böyle durumlarda asla durmamak lazım. Çünkü bunlar pusuya yatıp duranları gördüklerinde bir anda olay yerinde çoğalarak o kişiyi gasp ediyorlarmış. Yumurta olayı için de en iyisi otomatik silecekleri kapalı tutup asla çalıştırmamak ve olay yerinden öylece uzaklaşmak.

Ayrıca otobanda oldu da çarpmaktan başka şansınız kalmadı o zaman böyle bir durumda siz suçlu olmuyorsunuz diye biliyorum. Otoban sonuçta yayalar için yasak bir yer.

Mercedes are expected to bring some big upgrades for the Miami Grand Prix weekend. They had better do so because the season has started terrible for them. They are already way behind Ferrari and McLaren have also started much better. Mercedes were successful in the latest sprint and with these upgrades maybe another good result would be seen in this sprint. But for a full racing pace it is still difficult to trust them very much.

I hope I can make difference on my podium choices.    Predicting the complete podium brings really valuable extra points.

It is so sad to be out of the cup this early.    My players have lost some morale after this early elimination but I'm trying to prepare them for our next game. We need to be ready for a tough challenge against vd309. It is nice to see an F1 question in this round. To be honest I haven't been following NBA regularly this season. But I will do my best on that question too.    Seeing Palmer among the questions reminds me of how I got eliminated in the cup.

Fenerbahçe bugün 2-1 kazanarak şampiyonluk umutlarını sürdürdü ama Sivas deplasmanındaki o puan kaybının aslında Galatasaray'a şampiyonluğu çoktan hediye ettiğini düşünüyorum. Derbide farkı 1'e indirsek bile yine de Galatasaray'ın son hafta takılacağını sanmıyorum. İsmail Kartal bu noktada en başta suçlanması gereken kişi. Yaptığı seçimlerle hem Konferans Ligi'ni hem de Süper Lig'i bize kaybettirdi. Derhal takımdan gönderilmesi lazım.

It is a good question. Everything happened so quickly and Liverpool are out of the title race now. The draw they got against West Ham today just concluded their title challenge officially. The thing that I'm worried about the most is that Liverpool won't even be finishing ahead of Arsenal by playing like this. I'm getting closer to losing my side bet on Liverpool to finish ahead of Arsenal day by day.    I wasn't expecting Liverpool to give up this early.

It looks like my opponent has been decided already. Good luck, Charaf_chenina.    As far as I can see there is only one different answer for us which is for the 2nd question. Aston Villa - Chelsea match is going on right now and for now you are ahead of me. But I still believe in Palmer to make difference. He has been in a much better form than Watkins that was why I wanted to trust him. The loser of this question is out of the cup as well so it is very exciting. 

I'm mainly concentrated on the league of course but it wouldn't be bad to be successful in the cup too. 

I assume this would eventually happen for Manchester United. But we don't know when. Erik ten Hag made an important statement on this topic. He doesn't expect Manchester United to be in the title race next season as well. He believes that they can get near the top places at least if some necessary transfers are made.

I agree with him about the transfer topic. Manchester United needs to strengthen the squad this summer. There isn't a big squad depth as well. 

Arda Güler ilk defa La Liga'da ilk 11'de çıktığı maçta Real Sociedad'a karşı golünü de attı.    Maçın adamı da seçildi diye biliyorum. Arda Güler şu an gerçekten de Real Madrid yedekleri arasında bulduğu fırsatları en iyi şekilde değerlendiren oyuncu olabilir. Birkaç dakikalık fırsatları bile çok iyi kullanıyordu. Bu performansının ardından Ancelotti umarım ona daha fazla şans vermeye de başlar. Arda Güler daha fazla süre alabilmek için elinden geleni yapıyor.

To be honest I don't give Manchester United much chance to win the FA Cup trophy.    Their performance against Coventry was a summary of their condition. They had big difficulties and barely managed to win by penalty shootouts. I don't think that Erik ten Hag is also very satisfied with this kind of a qualification. Manchester United still have huge weakness in defense. I think that Manchester City will destroy them in the final match and win the trophy.
