With Haaland signing with Man City, I think they are definitely favs to win the Premier League again next season. You can't really get a better striker than him at the moment(maybe Harry Kane?). Striker was the only role that Man City were really lacking in. Even though Pep's style of play doesn't really require an out and out striker, it will he handy to have one in clutch situations where they could whip a high cross in, instead of trying to put in low through balls.
Manchester city is fighting to retain their first position in the next premier league table, with the lessons gained during the last season that made them lose out on the championship there will be needing players like Haaland will be a good asset to man city in the next season.
Man City main priority is to win UCL next season I believe that prompted the club to sign Haaland, their are some crucial matches where Guordiola played false nine in the absence of Gabriel Jesus or due to some changes in tactical formation, the arrival of Haaland will address that issue, definitely the team will continue to dominate EPL with the quality of players in the squad, however the coveted UCL trophy had remain elusive to the club despite winning the EPL trophy consistently the team is now a complete team and one of the best in Europe.
I totally agree that winning the UEFA champions league is the main priority next season for Manchester city after  coming so close to the finals but losing to Real Madrid. They are now adding reinforcement to the squad and hoping to be the champions league winners next season. With the Erlin Haaland, and hopefully Philips and Cucurela joining they will have a formidable squad and will stand a chance in the UEFA champions league next season.

It's not just Manchester City that are increasing their power. Liverpool, PSG, Barcelona and Real Madrid continue to try to make themselves more stable. So next season the Champions League looks set to be even more competitive. PSG is looking for a new coach. Liverpool are adding new players to the squad. Barcelona is getting stronger with the help of Xavi. The goal of each team is to win the Champions League.
The reason why every club are searching for good players is because every team are targeting to win the Champions League. Real Madrid was so tough and other teams would want to make their squad tough too, to not allow real madrid to have chance to go with the Champions League next season again.

I think it would be great to see local shops accepting bitcoin for their services and products. I have not found a shop locally so far but it looks like the world is changing and in some time, there will be more shops accepting bitcoin for payments.
The world is transforming and bitcoin acceptance is also expanding, soon it won't be common to come across small scale of business that accept bitcoin for payment.  Businesses will see more reasons why cryptocurrency is important for payment.

That is why it is good to play gambling with understanding, gambling is more than the regular game we play. In some games one can predict to win every he plays but when it comes to gambling it is difficult to win all the games.  Playing gambling with understanding matters a lot by not putting a huge amount that one would not wish to lose.

One have to be watchful as we buy more bitcoin,  the way the market is going down it seem the  market will still go down dip. It is never still bad to buy bitcoin at its current price if you still believe in bitcoin and can have patience with bitcoin for the price to comes up . Let the emotion decide if it is okay to buy because of volatility.

Today the price goes up more than 5%, and hopefully there is no negative sentiment that makes the price will drop, I'm worried that if the price drops below $ 20k it will continue red and difficult to rise again, if 2 or 3 more days the price can reach $ 25k then I am optimistic that the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise and return to $ 40 no later than July.
I know the price will definitely rise anytime soon , but it is too fast that it will get to $40 by July,  because July is just around the corner.  Let's follow the market and see how it goes than predicting what is not really sure will happen  .

United is presently undergoing certain changes which Erik Ten Hag is fully in control. He's really trying his best in the team since he's new to the team and Ralf Ragnick have exits the team, Erik will allow the unhappy players to leave the team while he work on bringing in new players. Pogba and Matic departure won't be a big deal for United as they might still replace them with potential players. For Matic who left as a free player as United don't seem to extend Contract with him, is definitely a good one because he's already aging and I don't he might meet up united standard of football.
Manchester United have the best 11th player in person of Ronaldo i don't know if the player will be leaving the club but even with that Manchester United will make some other changes even with new players that will position the club to top the table next season, but that depends on the kind of players the buy this time if the club go cheap players their may not get the best performance in the future.
Christiano Ronaldo in Manchester United will always make a good difference and with the new players that are in will make things better than Manchester United of last season. With the new coach Manchester United has I'm sure their will be transformation for Manchester United next season.

Cristiano Ronaldo's leaving Real Madrid didn't affect them too badly at all. Many people expected them to be in a worse condition after he left but Real Madrid still managed to stay strong. They became the champions in the Champions League too. This proves how much awesome team Real Madrid are now. Barcelona didn't experience the same thing after Messi left the team. They struggled a lot for some time and they are newly recovering now. It is really good to see Real Madrid like this because it proves that they aren't dependent on one player.

I agree with you, because Real Madrid players never allowed the team to fail like other teams. I think, Real Madrid managements took their time to invested a huge amount of money on talented strikers like, Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and others in case anyone is leaving the team the thing will not affect the team. The reason why Barcelona failed since Messi left the team, is because their managements missed the opportunity to invested a huge amount of money on talented strikers when Messi was there, thinking he will remain with them forever.

Real madrid understand how to keep the team moving, they believe investing on talented players will make the team very strong and to win every trophy.  Their mentality in investing in good players has also helped them to generate more fund in the club. With this mentality Real Madrid has their team will always be one cf the best.
868  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: June 20, 2022, 08:00:20 PM
I think Barcelona have made a very good change, they have got the best Serie A midfielder, namely Kessie who this season was able to bring Milan to the championship. And Barcelona are looking for a strong defender to replace Gerard Pique.
I think Barcelona will be able to compete with Real Madrid next season. I am optimistic that Barcelona will be able to win the La Liga title next season
Not only kessie but actually barcelona have also got Christensen from chelsea, and they are still eyeing lewandowski to spearhead next season, the arrival of kessie will certainly make their midfield solid and I think Christensen who does have a position as a defender is indeed projected to replace pique , but unfortunately these two players still can't be registered by barcelona to la Liga because of financial fair problems at the moment, I think Xavi's influence this season is extraordinary and if they can solve their financial problems now maybe we will see Barcelona again become a rival to madrid for get tittle .

The coach of Barcelona has done really well but the problem is the financial situation of Barcelona is not going to be better any time soon. Xavi will have to work with what he has right now. And he will also have to bring the results otherwise the players are already taking a 50% cut in the pay and they are not going to hang around for too long if the team is not bringing results. There are some hard choices to make for Barcelona and for Xavi in the upcoming few years. If they can somehow hang on during these few years they will be able to do better in the future.
Xavi is an intelligent coach and am very sure he will be able to work with the players he has for the next season. Last season he was able to bring out the best from his players,  now that Barcelona is facing serious financial challenge Xavi  have no choice to bring out the best of his players he will work with, this will also save the club from expenses.

Drugs abuse is indeed a killer disease to it abusers,but most people feel it's fun to misuse drug.The moment you become addicted to taking hard drugs,there is every tendency that one is bound to behave abnormal.It is bad that the youths of today no longer value their health,they prefer stuffs that kills them and adds no value to their life.The moment addiction steps in,one is bound to act in a way that is unfavourable to the ones around him.
Drug abuse is not only a killer disease to the abuser alone and if we checked very well it is a killer disease to the future generation and our environment.
Meanwhile, the kids of this present time are easy to be influenced by their friends especially those that are still in their teenage.
I believe a good solution is need to be implemented to prevent drug abuse among the youth or else we'll see more 8yrs old with firearms and attacking someone who's old enough to be their parent.
I wonder how the next generation will be able to handle drugs because right now drug abuse among youths in the society is beyond control , I think the government can't stop it totally because most youths take hard drugs in a hidden place or their home which no security agent can stop them from the act.
I believe all this is happening because of two reasons.
1) Some parents of this day are not supposed to be parents, they give birth at an early stage when they ought to learn from their parents. They have no experience of what it takes to be a parent so they raise a child that will be a problem to the community because the child lacks parental care and guidance.
2) The government didn't regulate the drug in a way that will prevent it from getting into the hands of youth.
I think the government are trying their best to reduce the intake of drugs among the youth. In as much of that the rate at which youth take drug is still high, even with the serious regulation people still sell drugs and the youth buy drugs and take it in a secret place. The main problem is the people who sells the drug and how it is gotten.

I can say bitcoin is safe for investment but I can't give account of other cryptocurrencies. In general cryptocurrency can be safe to some set of persons who knows what cryptocurrency is, those who can have patience to hodl for long. I don't think cryptocurrency is safe to invest for those who want to make money so fast.
871  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Hodlers are actively buying bitcoin these days on: June 20, 2022, 06:31:15 PM
For the fact that the price of bitcoin went down to $17k during the weekend hodlers are still buying more bitcoin because for sure the price will be up after now. This why the rich will always get richer and when the price get to $60 most of us will be regretting for not buying when it the price was so low.

Sometimes most newbies get introduced by greedy investors and the make them have this notion that crypto is a get rich quick scheme so the try to find all means to catch up with the trend. Nothing good is so each to achieve. Good proceed is a process of time, passion and devotion. Scammers take advantage of three things
  • Greed
  • Lack of Knowledge
  • Impatience
once any of this is captured then it is easy to do away with investors fund no matter the level of experience the have

Man investor don't tell newbies who they mentor what they need to hear. Some investors will only talk about the importance and benefit of cryptocurrency so that they can have more followers who will always look for their articles or videos.  But they failed to let newbies know about the risk that are involved in cryptocurrency,  and to tell them cryptocurrency is not a money making rich scheme.

The reasons why so many persons invest in bitcoin is the depreciation, centralization and the appreciative aspect  in bitcoin.

875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion Thread || Current discussion: AFCON 2023 qualifiers. on: June 20, 2022, 02:04:59 PM

I think Nigeria is one of the strongest teams in Africa. They are able to play well against European and American teams. On the other hand, teams like Tunisia, Cameroon, and Morocco will not be able to put up a strong resistance against European or American teams. My guess is that all the teams in Africa except Senegal will be eliminated in the first round. Although Ghana is good enough, but I don't think they can beat Group H's Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea.
In the world of football any thing can happen, an underdog can come out victorious at the end. I wouldn't write off anyone though. Nigeria is the strongest in Africa but they failed to qualify. Anyone who is able to qualify is worthy and should represent the continent. We just have to support them and wish them well.

Nigeria was a strong team and not now,  a team that their performance is below standard can not be consider to be a strong team. Football is unpredictable and sometimes teams make little mistakes that can cause them to lose a game, but if these mistakes continues in every game I see it as the level of performance of that team. Nigeria was a good team, right now the team is struggling to come up .

With the current team players Nigeria have, you can’t say they don’t have more than enough standard to be considered as a good team. The players are there and they are doing greatly well. The only issue I think here is that they don’t have the coach to make use of this players the right way. They’ve more than enough talented players that can play well in all competitions, they just don’t have the good manager yet.

If they are talented it will be seen in their performances , and I don't think just because their is no good coach it will affect the performances of the player drastically.  The problem from the players are there, no good coach can also be a problem too , let not see reasons for not performing as only the problem for not having good coach.

Jay Jay Okocha had skills that would make Ronaldinho jealous, and Nwakwo Kano aka Papilo was one of the best players Arsenal ever had. These two players made me love inlove with football. I remember when both players were playing for the Super Eagles, we wrote songs to celebrate them. Iheancho, Mikel and other Nigerians playing in Europe have made a name for themselves. But there is a lot of raw talent in the NPFL

i am african and i have also followed all leagues, for me as a sports bettor (particularly soccer) knowing about all leagues is something that is part of my day to day, but honestly this comparison of ronaldinho with Jay Jay Okocha is scary, O ronaldinnho is a phenomenon that appears rarely a year, he is a complete player, the type of player that on any team he would be the dominant one, the guy who draws all the attention to him because his skills are on another level, whereas Jay Jay Okocha was a player whose abilities were found in many players, he was not unique.



Well today there's a team game that I really like, I'm talking about Enyimba against Kwara United, definitely Enyimba will win that game

Ronaldinho is a unique player, I can also tell Jay Jay Okocha Okocha was also a good player, I don't think what he has then was found in other regular player. Jay Jay was a talented player but he was not really giving that recognition for his skillfull talent in his time.

There is no fun in gambling if you can not only risk the amount of money you can afford to lose, if you risk more and you gamble more, you will lose more and it will become a problem. There are psychological effect in gambling, you lose and you use an amount you can afford to lose, you are not depressed, if you lose and you are used an amount too big for you to afford to lose, you are depressed. If you see gambling as income, you can use higher amount for it and lead to depression, your friend do not see gambling like that is the reason.
Their is no fun in gambling when someone is beting with the amount that he can't afford to lose, we play gambling to make money after the final result, I don't think it is fun loosing money that is not worth to be lose but will only end up in depression.

Many casino are aware that minors do play bet with their company but they don't really care because what they need is money. When you login into there site they will only tell you gambling is for 18+, no strict verification to access users. It will be good for casino to make verification requirements strict to  control the rate which minors  play gamble.
