Real Madrid appear to be waiting for Mbappe on a free next season as they are believed to have found an agreement behind the scenes over talks over their future. On the other hand, it is also true that Real Madrid was quite cold and did not take advantage of this opportunity to make an offer to PSG. Mbappe, who finally chose to make peace after his dispute with PSG in this transfer window, made it seem as if his transfer situation was starting to disappear in this transfer market.

The re-joining of Mbappe to the main squad indicates that Mbappe has found his comfort again with the PSG team. So there is a good chance that if he changes his mind he will receive a contract extension with PSG. Will Real Madrid return to reap disappointment, we'll see.
Mbappe can change his decision even though we don't know exactly what he agreed with Nasser Al-Khelaifi as PSG's current owner. Nasser Al-Khelaifi really wants Kylian Mbappe to stay long at PSG, but he could also sell him if it's a last resort.

It's true, I heard that Kylian Mbappe has returned to the team and is training like any other player. PSG needed him to increase the chances of winning compared to the first match with 0 goals against Lorient, but now things are starting to cool. Then from that, PSG also has a new winger who can play well with Mbappe. Dembele is the player I mean, so we're bound to see something different throughout the season. Regarding the possibility of his move to Real Madrid, well, we'll see after this season is over.

If I was a manger I will fear for signing Neymar because it is not easy managing a top top player like Neymar if things go wrong it will cause more problems than good. I guess that is why Xavi is trying to avoid making mistakes with this signing. Neymar has decided to go the Saudi league, there was a time when I believed Neymar would win the Ballon d’or, I think he had all the class to match with Lionel Messi and Ronaldo but unfortunately that didn’t happen. He’s now making retirement moves.
Xavi does not feel pressured into signing Neymar as he feels that he has enough players on the wing this season. Barcelona also doesn't have the good finances to pay Neymar's high wages, so it's not because he can't afford to manage a top player like Neymar.

Neymar has sadly chosen to join the Saudi Pro League which in all likelihood could easily be forgotten in Europe. I also have the same feeling about Neymar, yes he seems to be nearing his retirement. Neymar has a 2 season contract with his new team, so I don't think a European team will try to sign him for free once his contract is up.

The current Chelsea team have many top talents to form a better squad than they had last season. The game against Liverpool yesterday showed they are better shaped this season under Pochettino. Disappointing result for them because they would have preferred all three points nevertheless they had a good game and not a bad result after all, Liverpool are also not an easy club to beat so to me it is a fair result in the end.
I agree with you especially when I saw Chelsea's performance against Liverpool. Chelsea's performance was quite good throughout the match and they were also quite good in terms of domination, but unfortunately Chelsea missed some of the chances they created well. So it is a fair result.

Manchester United vs Wolves

The provisional position is 1-0 to win Manchester United. Raphaël Varane scored with a header and it looked to be the only goal of the game. Wolves also had several good chances to score, but unfortunately they efford were denied by Onana.

The basic concept is decentralization and I don't think it will turn into centralization even if the government really wants to control it. Also decentralization is not the main thing that determines the value of bitcoin, but I believe that if bitcoin can eventually be controlled in all sorts of super expensive ways, then surely many people or investors will abandon it.

Supply and demand in the market is the main thing that determines value, but decentralization also plays a role in the level of trust users have in bitcoin use cases over the years.

Based on the amount of merit spent by CryptopreneurBrainboss so far, I can confirm that he is one of the merit source.
He spent an average of 23.5 sMerit per month last year on the Nigerian local board, while he has spent an average of 53 sMerit per month (January - July 2023) on the same local board. But it would be better if there were additional merit source there because that could help more users get merit worth it with the quality of the posts.

Now and after the game between Burnley and Macnshter City there was some bad news for Manchester City even after they won the game against Burnley, Pep Guardiola said Kevin De Bruyne is injured and it seems he got injured hard, that's why they can't use their player, Kevin De Bruyne for some time and since we all know about his effect on Manchester City, not having Kevin De Bruyne can have a negative effect on this team.
This is not pleasant news from Manchester City after their first win at the start of the season. Kevin De Bruyne is likely to be out for a few weeks or a few months depending on how bad his injury is this time, but I hope he will be back soon and recover as expected.

Mateo Kovacic, who came forward to replace Kevin De Bruyne, played quite well until the end of the game. The 0-3 win over Burnley was a joy for Manchester City fans, but they also couldn't hide their disappointment from Kevin De Bruyne's injury. This is obviously a heavy blow for Manchester City because Kevin De Bruyne is one of the most important players for them. But this is an opportunity for Mateo Kovacic to prove his worth.

[HT] Real Sociedad 1 - 0 Girona

Although overall Girona dominated the game, until now Girona have not been able to provide resistance and score goals for them. Real Sociedad were a bit lucky to get a goal early in the game scored by Takefusa Kubo. I think that if the game pattern of the two teams stays the way they are now, Girona will score a goal, although basically I still believe that Real Sociedad will probably score some goals again.
Real Sociedad are the favorites to win today's match despite Girona's somewhat dominating first half. Girona hasn't really posed a threat to Real Sociedad's defense even though they have a high possession percentage so far. Sociedad will likely win the match by more than 1 goal, but the second half is still long enough to earn some of the different results.

I don't think Girona can equalize if they don't capitalize on their chances well, but the probability of a draw is still quite high as long as Sociedad can't score a second goal. But I don't think it's a draw, of course because I'm sure Real Sociedad will win it.

In Spain, Sevilla started the season badly.Sevilla lost 2-1 at home to Valencia and started the season without points and I think we can say that it was a bad result for them.Sevilla has a good squad and I did not expect them to play so badly in their home game.There were no goals in the first half, but the game became lively after the goals in the second half. Sevilla was reduced to 10 men after Bade was red carded in minute 81 and Sevilla conceded the second goal 7 minutes later and lost 2-1.I thought Sevilla, last season's UEFA Europa League champions, would start the league well after this success, but it was not what I expected.Last year, they managed to lift the European Cup even though they had bad results in the league.
Sevilla's performance was not as good as expected, but they did not play as badly as they say. Sevilla and Valencia drew 1-1 until a few minutes before the end of regular time for the second half, but unfortunately they failed to maintain the draw because Valencia made good use of his chances and goals.

This defeat doesn't mean that Sevilla really can't be expected this season, but of course Sevilla have to really improve so they can perform better in the next game. I don't expect their form to be the same as last season in La Liga, but really they failed to get 3 full points in the first match of La Liga this season.

For Rayo Vallecano they were able to perform better in their inaugural match in Laliga this season because Rayo was able to end this match by gaining 3 points. In the first match, anyone can lead the standings because that's not something that surprises us because we will see how consistent they are in securing a place on the standings board. Almeria played quite well in this match but unfortunately they were not able to score after the many chances they did didn't make it into goals.
Vallecano took advantage of his penalty opportunities well and scored two goals from there. I really thought the game would have been different if Vallecano didn't get those 2 penalties, but that's luck. It is true that this is not a surprising victory for Vallecano, but they must have planned the game and maximum results for this match.

In another ongoing match where Valencia is facing Sevilla where this match has entered the 82th minute and the score is still 1-1. Valencia was able to score early but Sevilla were able to equalize in the 69th minute through Nesyri. I think the biggest chance of Sevilla vs Valencia match will be a draw.
Now Sevilla have lost 1-2 to Valencia, and I think it will be a win for Valencia especially after Loïc Bade received a red card.

I know that Manchester City is a strong team compare to Burnley, but I was expecting burnley to give Manchester city a difficult moment in the match, I wasn’t even expecting Manchester City to win the match easily, but Manchester City humiliated burnley, and Manchester city just showed us that they are in form this season and the players which left the team those not have much effect on the teams performance, pep Guardiola already has perfect replacements for them, and from Manchester City performance today, it shows that all clubs which will be playing against them have to be very careful.

The season has just started and  Haaland has already scored two goals, De Bruyne was substituted in the first half of the match due to injury, Manchester City might have even scored more goals if De Bruyne completed the match.
As most people had predicted, Manchester City really took their chances to win the game. I'm not saying it was an easy game, but Haaland's two goals and one from Rodri really broke Burnley's spirits today. Burnley recognize the strength of Manchester City, so I don't think they will regret that defeat much longer.

Josko Gvardiol made his debut match today after replacing Rico Lewis in the 80th minute. It's a special game for him as a newcomer to the Premier League, so he must be really excited about this big opportunity. I hope Gvardiol will also get a chance in Manchester City's next game against Sevilla, it will boost his confidence a lot as a new player.

Rayo Vallecano managed to lead the La Liga standings for a while after winning on the road against Almeria. Vallecano successfully beat the hosts with a score of 0-2 even though both were created from penalty points.
This is the start of the season and whichever team wins will have the chance to lead the standings. I didn't see anything extraordinary from Vallecano, but they deserved to win the 3 points in that match.

Almeria recorded 19 shots, 5 of which were on target, but Almeria failed to score a single goal in this match. On the other hand, Vallecano, who had 4 shots at goal, was able to score 2 goals and keep them until the match ended. Vallecano had a great start to the season today, but they were not to be expected after Barcelona and Real Madrid played their match.

We know very well that this competition has not started yet, even the domestic league competitions will just restart next week. basically, we haven't been able to measure the strength of the Barcelona squad when carrying out their matches in the Champions league. Likewise, when they play their matches in their domestic league.
I will not assume too far before seeing their performance and consistency. moreover, we don't know which team will be their opponent in the group phase yet.

But with the current Barcelona squad, at least they can be better than the previous season. also, the chemistry between players to players should have been getting very solid. Xavi's task now is to apply the best system and formulate his squad to become a team that is difficult for his opponents to beat. ideally, Barcelona must prove first to qualify from the group phase. if you pass from the group phase, we have a little idea of ​​how this team will move to the next stage. Apart from that, several clubs that have just rejoined the Champions League cannot be underestimated. I think English clubs are quite tough opponents apart from Manchester City.
I don't have high hopes for Barcelona next season in the Champions League, but it's true that Barcelona can be expected to live up to the expectations of its fans in terms of form and play. Barcelona lost three important players to their squad list in the transfer window, including Jordi Alba, Busquets and Dembele, but they also have some great arrivals to contend with next season.

It doesn't matter if you have doubts about Barcelona even if you say nothing wrong about them. Good performance can be expected if you judge the quality of the players, but it never guarantees anything for them without hard work.

Kylian Mbappe can more than make up for the kind of contribution that Benzema made. Because Kylian Mbappé is interested in coming to Real Madrid, he will play for the team with his best.
Of course Mbappe really deserves the status of a player who can replace Benzema's role at Real Madrid, but the problem is when will Real Madrid complete his transfer?

Real Madrid have been monitoring Mbappe's situation at PSG so far, but I don't see them moving quickly to sign the player as quickly as people would like. Mbappe's high transfer fee may be a major obstacle for Real Madrid although Mbappe has expressed his interest in joining the La Liga giants some time ago. Mbappe's transfer saga heated up at PSG after he did not want to extend his contract. Many things have been lost about him at PSG, even the Mbappe poster that was displayed at the PSG headquarters was also reported to have been removed. He's certainly good for Real Madrid, but Real Madrid haven't tried to offer PSG seriously.

~~~
The price you say is a price that looks quite logical for Bitcoin to reach, but I don't think that it will happen now because at the moment Bitcoin is still running at a price range of $29K to $30K in the market which means everyone has to be more patient if you want to see the price of $40K in Bitcoin. A bullrun is the hope for most people this year and also next, but for $100K it is not very easy for Bitcoin to achieve anytime soon. Because you yourself should be able to draw some conclusions on this when you have watched the price of Bitcoin for the last three months of this year hovering around $30K.
If someone wants to earn a commensurate return on a bitcoin investment, then they must have sufficient knowledge of how the market works for them. Bitcoin takes time and a lot of encouragement from investors, meaning that it also needs strong support that can eventually make its demand increase.

Of course it won't be easy to break $100k, but there is always hope of hitting that price in the future especially after the 2024 halving. Everyone seems optimistic about the price, but they need to be patient enough to deal with market volatility.

I want to talk about a slightly different topic. I expect Barcelona to do great things in the Champions League this year, the way the team is progressing day by day is really admirable. On the other hand, Real Madrid needs a good striker for the team.
I agree with you about the development of Barcelona in terms of the quality and mentality that the players have with Xavi. Barcelona can be expected to do great things in the Champions League including winning tickets to the final next season, but I don't think Barcelona seems very ready to do that. Barcelona need more strength to win a ticket to the final, I mean they have to be strong enough in all positions and play well every game, it's difficult.

Xavi will certainly hope for a bigger target for Barcelona next season. Xavi has failed in the Champions League 2 seasons in a row, so he will do everything to achieve something better. Qualified from the group stage is a realistic target, while if Barcelona manages to win tickets to the semi-finals and finals, then that is something very great.

It is a fact that bitcointalk.org is not the only bitcoin discussion forum so far.
You will certainly find many other forum and sites out there that provide access to discussions about bitcoin although they are not quite the same as bitcointalk.org. I agree bitcointalk.org plays a role in increasing the knowledge of its users, but some would also recommend this forum for money.

Discussions about bitcoin are not limited to one place, you can even create your own discussion space on other platforms such as telegram groups, Facebook or WhatsApp and etc. So while the bitcointalk forum has played a role in spreading information about crypto, it is not the only one.

Simone Inzaghi doing good job in last two years and his success rate is also impressive which helps Inter Milan having good position in last season with most chances now in this season they are going to fight for the title as well with few offers are also for him with better options, but now this crucial season is going to have good impact on his career and relationship with Inter Milan if he is able to have improved results in this season then most chances he will be going to stay here for more time and his contract is surely going to extend.

Currently, they are fixing few issues which hurt them badly in last season, and they were not able to compete with Manchester City in Champions League final as well, but hopefully now they will learn from their mistake and will do better for the positive end of this season.
Inter Milan must improve their form season after season as basically they have been a bit away from the title in their last 2 seasons. Inter won the last Scudetto in the 2020-2021 season, and after that Milan and Napoli took turns getting it. Next season Inter must return to focus on winning titles, be it the Champions League or Serie A, but of course it won't be easy.

Juventus, Milan, Napoli, Roma and Atalanta all really won it too, so Simone Inzaghi's task will not be easy. Inter have a chance to win the title, but it really depends on their form and their ability to keep their form consistent.

I can't wait for the first Premier League game of the season. Moreover, the Burnley vs Manchester City match will present a crucial match because Burnley is a promotion team and Manchester is the defending champion. Apart from that, we will see the two figures of coaches who really performed brilliantly last season managing their team. Even a reunion will happen in this game between Pep Guardiola and Kompany.
Yes, this is a crucial match for Burnley. But I believe Burnley are not as weak as we think, otherwise they will not be promoted to the Premier League. But anyway I believe that Manchester City are the favorites to win the match, of course because Manchester City are a team that has a lot more quality than Vincent Kompany's side.

The coach of Burnley is a coach that was once a player in Manchester City, I do not know how that is supposed to give him an advantage, but that is some kind of advantage I think. Also you cannot underestimate teams that are fresh from relegation, sometimes their blood is hot, and with that motivation of being in the premier league can make them want to win the reigning premier league champions as a big statement. They can do it if Manchester City do not put up a good performance. There is also the advantage that they are playing this game at home in front of their supporters, that can help give them morale and boost.
I know that Vincent Kompany was an important former player for Manchester City, but that doesn't necessarily make him understand the way they play under Pep Guardiola. Manchester City has a good record against Burnley, last season Manchester City even beat Burnley in the FA Cup.

I certainly don't underestimate Burnley and their low probability of winning, but that's how it is. Burnley don't have high odds despite playing at home, but 90 minutes is a long time to get a different result than most people expect.

João Félix could thrive under Simeone, should he be given full game time as he was when he arrived from Benfica. For his individual career it would be very detrimental if he moved to the Saudi Arabian League and for Atletico Madrid it was very profitable in terms of his sale. I see that João Félix's performance was not so disappointing before Atletico Madrid loaned him to Chelsea, but I also don't know why Atletico Madrid intend to let him go permanently.

João Félix is still relatively young and he could have improved when the coach saw his potential. If Atletico Madrid don't want him anymore and I hope he stays in Europe instead of moving to the Saudi Arabian league and what needs to be done is to find another club that needs it.
As Atletico Madrid's most expensive signing, I think they know how to get Joao Felix to play to the best of his ability.
Diego Simeone has given him a chance in the last 5 seasons, but Joao Felix doesn't seem to have any significant improvement from his stats. Right now Joao Felix is ​​really dreaming of playing for Barcelona, ​​but because Barcelona doesn't have good finances, the chances are very low.

Joao Felix's contract with Atletico Madrid is still very long, ending on June 30, 2027. His high market value does not allow him to join Barcelona next season, but if Felix decides to end his contract with Atletico Madrid and join Barcelona, then that's a different story. Benfica, Al-Hilal and Aston Villa are also rumored to be interested in Joao Felix, but I'm sure Joao Felix really wants to play for Barcelona.

PSG have found several clubs, but Mbappe is the problem. This is a three-way deal and Mbappe wants to either go to Real Madrid or work out the contract to the end. There are no options to sell a player without his consent. Therefore, PSG has until September 1st to reach the last stage of "Acceptance". We have already seen the previous ones: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression  Grin
Mbappe's situation is even more interesting considering that PSG really want to sell him instead of keeping him. PSG have been very fed up with Mbappe's attitude since his desire not to renew his contract with them, but that is the full right for the player, especially regarding his future. PSG don't want to let him go for free, but it seems that is what Mbappe really wants so far to move to Spain with Real Madrid.
