In fact, we don't know what Benzema's real problems were with Al Ittihad, especially with Al Ittihad's former coach, Nuno Santo. however, if I try to assume according to my personal view. in fact, perhaps Benzema initially didn't like the type of playing style of Al Ittihad, which at that time was still managed by Nuno Santo. however, it seems that the problem is increasingly developing towards Benzema's desire to leave the Saudi Pro League. although currently a meeting is being held by Benzema and the club, as Romando reported in his tweet. even the President of the SPL also commented on Benzema, he said it would be good if Benzema stayed or moved to another club in this league.

However, it is very likely that Benzema has decided that he wants to return to the Aropa top league. there is a big possibility that this will happen, but which team will be his target and who will want his services. Romano reported that it had just been revealed that Lyon had been trying to sign Benzema since last December. apart from that, there are many rumors circulating regarding this Real Madrid legend. now, United has reportedly got the green light to recruit Benzema. Rumor has it that Manchester United are the favorites to sign Karim Benzema thanks to their new CEO. but on the other hand, Benzema's representatives have held talks with Chelsea and Arsenal. but so far, there has been no official decision or official claim whether Benzema will stay or join one of the European clubs mentioned in this post. interesting, the transfer window will soon end. so, let's wait for further news.

IMO, if Benzema fits Arsenal's style of play, then he will be a problem for the teams that will be Arsenal's opponents in various competitions. when Benzema was with Real Madrid, the combinations and rotations carried out by Real Madrid's attack line at that time were very dangerous for the opposing team. the triple combination of Vini Jr, Rodrygo and Benzema is a pattern that Ancelotti always relies on. with Arsenal, if Benzema is able to adapt, he will again become a prolific player in terms of scoring goals. because Arsenal's game is more complicated and varies greatly from player to player. the problem is, Arteta and Edu have not done anything concrete by bringing in new arrivals this January. after all, Benzema is only an option that Arsenal is considering.

In fact, I don't know if Benzema has given the green light. Maybe it could be that I've missed a lot of news. the reason is, Lyon is also reportedly trying to bring in Benzema. Lyon did it last December, as quoted by Romano. But whatever it is, as an Arsenal supporter I hope that Arteta really brings in a player with number 9 as a goal scoring machine in their squad. apart from that, Arsenal are also rumored to have several other players they are targeting, including a player from Eveton. If I'm not mistaken, Amadeu Onana is still being linked with Arsenal. however, so far nothing can be claimed with certainty. maybe, if Arsenal will do it towards the end of the closing of the transfer window as a surprise. or maybe, the expectations don't match the hopes of the Gunners supporters.

The chance will always be there for Chelsea to win the Carabao Cup, because after all in football that is unique. and usually, the final match will feature a match with a different feel. I mean, it's not like when Chelsea or the opposing team plays a normal match. which means, Pochettino will try to work hard to maximize his team's squad. In the last few matches, Poche has tried to give opportunities to other center forwards besides Nicolas Jackson. even though the results are not very satisfying, currently there seems to be a slight change in the Chelsea squad.
now the problem is, which team will be Chelsea's opponent in the Carabao final. and the Fulham versus Liverpool match is being held. so, let's just wait for the results of the match between Fulham vs Liverpool.

Meanwhile Poche must improve his team's squad, either for the Premier League or in the Carabao final. and if Liverpool wins the match against Fulham, that means Chelsea must prepare to face Liverpool in the final match. Well, what's unique is that Liverpool are in impressive performance. however, when Jurgen Klopp's squad met against Chelsea, these two teams always had difficulty beating each other. We can refer to the H2H of these two teams, Chelsea last beat Liverpool in 2021. after that, every time this team met the result was a draw in the last 7 matches in various competitions. so, thus, theoretically and based on statistics, Chelsea has a chance to win the Carabao Cup, even if the opposing team is Liverpool.

As a Barcelona supporter, it is clear that I expect that Xavi Hernandez's squad will be able to win the match against Bilbao. however, if we refer to Bilao's performance, especially in La Liga, their performance is not that bad and it could even be said that this team is quite good when playing match after match. unfortunately, in the last match in the La Liga competition, Bilbao was narrowly defeated by Valencia with a score of 1-0. in this match, Bilbao will play with all their abilities. in particular, Enesto Valvelde's team will take advantage of the momentum of this match, especially since Barcelona is not strengthened by several of its core players, especially in the back line.

On the other hand, Xavi has to win this match like it or not. At least, Barcelona has a chance to win the Copa del Rey title. So, there are no words for playing relaxed in this match, especially since this match is only one leg. apart from that, Xavi must pay attention to his defense line if they don't play according to the strategy that Xavi implemented in this match. referring to the system pattern implemented by these two coaches, it seems that both of them will play with an offensive pattern.
Talking about Barcelona, ​​I'm sure Barcelona's front line will perform well if Gonduhan, De Jong and Perdi play very impressively. however, it seems that Lamine Yamal will start from the reserve bench.  Currently, the odds have changed slightly. Bilbao with @2.75, while Barcelona with @2.40. Maybe this match will be tough. but still, my estimate is that Barcelona will win this match.

Losing and winning in a match is normal, Tuchel had to accept defeat in the match against Wender Bremen at Bayern's home ground of the Allianz Arena. now, in a few moments Bayern will return to play their match against Union Berlin. I am sure that after losing against Bremen, Tuchel will no longer underestimate the teams that will be his opponents in the matches they will play, including this match. the defeat against Bremen was an important warning for Tuchel to maintain the performance of his team so as not to repeat their third defeat in the Bundesliga competition.

Talking about the match against Union Berlin, on paper Bayern Munich is far superior. especially as we know, if Union Berlin's performance is in disarray.  a difficult mission for Union Berlin to achieve victory when they visit the Alianz Arena, sometimes Bayern Munich. especially if we refer to the betting exchange, Bayern with odds @1.12, while Union Berlin with @ 22.00. I don't see an ideal option to bet on this match. either 1×2, Under/Over, or Handicap option. For me, it's too risky, basically my estimate is that Bayern Munich will win this match. Three points is the result they must achieve in this match, in order to reduce the gap in points from Leverkusen. So, let's wait for the final result.

If I refer to Fabrizio Romano's report which stated that Moh Salah's agent, Ramy Abbas, stated that Salah's injury was more serious than previously thought. he will be out for 21-28 days. His best chance of participating in AFCON at this time is to undergo incentive rehabilitation in England and join the team as soon as he is fit, this news was reported by Romano on January 23 yesterday. To be honest, I don't follow developments regarding the AFCON competition. but apparently, considering the long absence of Moh Salah. It is very likely that he will not return to AFCON, either because the national team is eliminated or the competition has ended.

Once again I will say, I really don't follow the development of the Africa Cup of Nations at all. So, I don't know all the related information. What is certain is that Moh Salah must focus on recovering from his injury and returning to the team fit again. the problem is, the Premier League competition will be waiting for him and Liverpool will have quite tough matches. With Moh Salah's absence, it could have an impact on Liverpool in a crucial match. automatically, he had to focus on recovering from his injury. As for the Europa League, Liverpool doesn't need to worry. because after all, the round of 16 of this competition has not yet been scheduled. that's natural, because the playoffs haven't been held yet. So, Liverpool can focus on other competitions, especially the Premier League and Jurgen Klopp really needs Salah's presence as one of the core players in his squad.

For me, Girona's advantage is not having matches with a busy schedule. Girona only participates in two competitions, namely La Liga and Capa del Rey. moreover, Michel's main focus is currently on La Liga. Naturally, they are currently at the top of the La Liga standings, even if only temporarily. therefore, Michel will not waste their opportunity to maintain their performance by continuing to play well on the right track. Initially, I thought Girona would not last long at the top of the standings or in the top four of the La Liga standings. however, Girona have played 21 matches and are still able to survive and provide competition to Real Madrid. even though in reality, Real Madrid has one match postponed. the cool thing is, Girona is the most productive team, scoring 51 goals throughout their matches.

Tomorrow, Girona will play their match against Mallorca in the Copa del Rey competition. After that, Girona will play two matches in La Liga against Celta and Real Sociedad. After that, the meeting between Girona and Real Madrid will be held again. We can see whether this time Girona is able to provide resistance and a game that presents an interesting match. Clearly, this match is a match worth waiting for. but that also comes with the condition that Girona must win their matches before visiting the Santiago Bernabeu.

Meanwhile, Madrid, in the next two matches, is not a difficult team for them to beat. but after that, Madrid will play a match against Aletico, the Madrid derby will return. At least we will soon be presented with exciting and interesting matches in the next few weeks, especially for Girona. Will Michel be able to maintain the consistency of his squad, or will Madrid beat Girona again like in the first meeting this season. Come on, let's wait and enjoy.

IMO, it is only a matter of time for Manchester City to take over the top spot in the standings. in fact, I don't take it lightly that Liverpool doesn't have a chance to continue winning. It's just that the Premier League still has a lot of matches left. Plus, tomorrow Lovepool will play a match against Fulham in the EFL Cup semifinals. This match could drain the stamina of the Liverpool players. because Fulham won't just give in, at least they will provide resistance to advance to the next round. So, Marco Silva's team will play their best. three days later, Liverpool will play against Norwich in the FA Cup. After that, Liverpool will host Chelsea and travel to the Emirates to face Arsenal. With a fairly tight schedule, Jugen Klopp's squad could be drained of stamina and energy. There is potential if Liverpool could experience defeat when playing their match in the Premier League. however, I am sure Klopp will not let his team experience problems.

Meanwhile, for Mancester City, it is reported that Erling Haaland has returned to training with the regular team. which means, City is ready to play a real game. Pep has two core players back who he can rely on, namely De Bruyne and Haaland.  Plus, City has one match postponed, even though currently the two teams are separated by five points, City could narrow the points gap and overtake Liverpool's level. that's why, I think this competition still has the potential to displace each other. maybe, in the next 2 or 4 weeks. well, let's just enjoy the competition in this competition because it seems that as we get closer to the end the competition will get tougher.

Bayern's defeat against Bremen the other day cannot be repeated when they play their match against Union Berlin.  In this match, Tuchel really has to prepare everything so that his team's performance is not like when they played against Bremen. maybe one of the reasons why Bayern lost that match was that they were not very ready when the competition was held again after eight days of not playing. or, Tuchel didn't really take the match seriously. but who knows what the cause is, what is certain is that Bayern Munich fell for the first time at the Allianz Arena, the home of The Bavarians. thus, in five matches Bayern has experienced two defeats. and Tuchel must not repeat the same thing that his team experienced in the next matches.

Talking about the Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin match, on paper Bayern Munich has a very high probability of winning the match over Union Berlin. apart from Union Berlin being in very unstable form, this match was held at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich's home ground. what is certain is that these two teams have quite a significant gap. whether it's based on the standings ranking, or also referring to the betting market. there is a quite striking gap with the Union Berlin odds @17.00. there are no other words, other than Bayern must return to winning ways and get full points in the match against Union Berlin tomorrow, precisely early morning, my country's time.

As a Barcelona supporter, I like these two players from Portugal. moreover, if Joao Felix and Cancelo are made permanent by Barcelona as Mendez said from the Ramano Report. but the problem is that Barcelona is still experiencing an unstable financial situation, so far they have even cut the salaries of their players in order to stabilize Barcelona's financial balance, but that is not enough. If Barcelona really wants to patent these two players, that means Barcelona has to do something that can make what they want come true.

If we talk about these two player profiles, both Cancelo and Felix have contributed quite a lot to Barcelona so far. these two players have different roles, Cancelo is an established and mature defender. Meanwhile, Joao Felix, this player has almost reached his playing level. however, Felix actually still hasn't reached balance in his game. Maybe in the next season, Felix will be more established and mature in his game. Regarding the salary issue, if I read correctly, Joao Felix was willing to cut his salary very deeply to join Barcelona at that time. So, regarding the salary issue, maybe it can be negotiated if in the end these two players are made permanent. It's just how Barcelona finds a solution to retain this player from Portugal. Honestly, I'm not sure. Maybe the ideal option is, there are Barcelona players that they have to let go of or put on the selling list in the summer transfer market.

In fact, not everyone is aware of the gambling they do. I mean, like you said in this post. in essence, awareness has a broad meaning and meaning depending on how a person responds and interprets it. of course, every person who gambles can be said to be aware that he is gambling. however, it is not certain that someone is conscious in the true sense. more precisely, the outer and inner base, understanding, knowing, and being aware of its limitations. for me, this is a form of awareness. especially, if it is related to gambling. however, I really understand what you are saying. that's why, if we are fully aware, of course we know the limits of what we can afford and play without having to force it, let alone having problems with gambling disorders.

It's just that, the problem is that everyone has different thoughts and levels of awareness. the point is, we cannot generalize this awareness. however, we agree that casino platforms or gambling companies never specifically force anyone to gamble. Casinos only provide services and services as entertainment with prizes that have been provided and adapted to the features of each game. Likewise with the other points you said, yeah, gambling companies are not directly responsible for players who become addicted. that's why, every licensed casino always provides self-exclusion. so, the point of what you are saying is to the gambler.  and yeah, that's right. so that we don't become addicts, of course we must have awareness, understanding, knowledge and limits according to our abilities. in this way, at least someone can avoid gambling disorders.

Let's just follow first, how is the development of each team that will compete in the round of 16, playing their matches first in their Domestic League. the reason is, the round of 16 matches still have enough time lag, each team will play their match in the last 16. First, they will play their matches in their Domestic League. some want to secure their position, some are preparing, and so on. plus, if a player is injured before the round of 16 match begins. That means it will be a problem for that team. and, the betting market will also change to suit the condition of the team in trouble.

Speaking of City, Haaland has now trained with the regular team. This means that he will need to be prepared again to play his matches both in domestic competitions and when he visits Copenhagen in the next match. Likewise with Leizpig, when they host the first leg against Real Madrid, Marco Rose will prepare his team to provide fierce resistance. Bayern versus Lazio, Arsenal versus Porto, Inter and Atletico, will all make thorough preparations when this competition starts again. For now, I don't have much to say, let alone speculate and assume.  At a minimum, I want to first follow the teams that are in the round of 16 playing their matches in their domestic league. plus, reviewing his readiness ahead of this competition. Even though we can speculate by making rough predictions, that's too fast for me personally.  So, just enjoy this moment.

It seems that Lyon is having problems bringing Karim Benzema to the Groupama Stadium, it is alleged that the package is still too expensive, and the only way to return to Europe is a big salary cut. as reported by Romano, the owner of OL Textor has been trying this method since December as was revealed yesterday. as we know, OL Textor is the owner of Lyon and this French League club which successfully gave birth to Karim Benzema, this report was reported by Fabrio Ronamo 23 hours ago. If this is true, it means that there seems to be communication between Karim Benzema, Al Ittihad and Olympique Lyonnais.

Well, as far as I know, through several media, rumors are circulating regarding Benzema regarding his dispute with his old coach, namely Nuno Santo. However, I don't know whether Benzema also has a dispute with the new Al Ittihad coach, Marcelo Gallardo. it could be that Benzema will return to the team that makes his name so big. however, whether the problem that is an obstacle will be resolved soon. even if Benzema returns with Lyon, it is not certain that he will be able to lift Lyon to a better level. apart from that, several top Premier League clubs have also been linked with Benzema. unmitigated, there are three big clubs, namely Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal. Ideally, if Benzema wants to take part in the highest competition, namely the Champions League, Arsenal is the entry point for him. however, let's just follow how it develops.

Interesting, I think almost every gambler has experienced the same thing as you said in this thread. so you see, when we go through a gambling session, there are many things that will come to mind including increasing our bets. especially, if this is the first time. I mean, everyone who gambles will usually have their own standards and levels. By the way, it all relates to a person's experience in gambling, regarding bankroll, and also what games are being played. plus, what level of victory have we achieved? Instinctively, humans have an instinct to do something challenging. whatever it is, including gambling. We are often encouraged to increase our bets, especially when we are getting a good streak. but it all depends on our situation and conditions, because these things also involve the psychology of the gambling we do. Well, I can't answer for sure whether this is influenced by gambling games. or, our minds begin to be lulled, incited or carried away. For me, gambling is complex, we can be faced with different situations when conducting a gambling session.  as you said, the feeling of wanting to increase the stakes will always be present for every gambler. Just imagine, if the gamblers were like you said. they can even spend their weekly, monthly allowance or even borrow. and this is where it usually becomes a problem for gamblers, not just addicts. this situation is familiar to me personally, whether I gamble offline or online. the point, as I said above. Well, I often say that in almost every post. Gambling involves understanding, responsibility and self-control. although basically in practice it is quite difficult.

I won't deny what you said in the thread and link you shared, it's just that if we want to, we have to look at all aspects, not just gambling. just imagine, for honorable members of my age, we are experiencing two or three different eras at once. Starting from everything being traditional, to everything being sophisticated because of technology. Here I just want to say that the current boom in entertainment and online gambling is just part of the era of technological progress.

But ok, let's talk according to the theme of this thread regarding "Increased Gambling Risk for the Younger Generation". In principle, whether we like it or not, we will all follow the developments of the times, whatever they may be. Like it or not, we all have to follow it. If not, unfortunately for us there will be a lack of information and even knowledge. Currently, online gambling is something that is loved by almost all levels of society. whether because it is easy to access, instant entertainment and so on. however, there are various negative impacts on the development of the younger generation if they are not aware of it.

However, the point is that this era of digital technology makes everything easier for us. not just gambling, to order food, we don't need to leave the house with all the sophisticated features provided by the platforms that provide it. then what is the solution, unfortunately I am not an expert in this field. so, I am not in the capacity to comment on how it should be and the portions. what I can do is, provide education to my child according to his age, control him without feeling pressured. explain and tell, what is allowed and what is not, cause and effect. As for the teachers' duties and so on, I entrust them to them as it is the duties of teachers and schools. the rest, we as parents do our job as we should.  But it's worth remembering that understanding, insight, education must be involved.

Right, we agree with what you said. overall, what you said can be a reference for the community to discipline themselves in their gambling, especially in practices related to discipline. unfortunately, in practice such things are something that is almost difficult to do. especially, for gamblers who have no benchmarks in their gambling.  without involving experience, understanding and responsibility. so, no matter how experienced the gambler is, he will always experience problems with his gambling. well, so that we can practice discipline, a person only needs to recognize gambling itself. I mean, a person must have full awareness of his gambling. thus, practicing discipline in gambling can be applied. with conditions, involving experience, knowledge, understanding, responsibility which will give rise to better self-control than gamblers in general.

I  am not saying that I am a gambler who has high discipline and responsibility. however, with the ideas and concepts that I apply. I enjoy the gambling I do more and have fun with it, with the idea of ​​seeking entertainment. unfortunately, many people misunderstand the idea of ​​having fun and looking for entertainment. in other words, it doesn't mean we remain happy when we lose and it doesn't mean we still have fun. but ideally, if it's no longer fun, the answer is simple. stop it, and we can come back another time. or, give ourselves a chance to release the pressure so that the emotion of anger doesn't control us while playing. Well, I hope what I say can be useful for gamblers, especially beginners.

Hi Dude, welcome to join our community. allow me to comment on what you ask from this post. especially, regarding the content of the thread title you created. regarding how you handle your gambling experience, especially for the first time. you yourself will feel firsthand what the sensation feels like when you gamble. after that, you can find out and then we will talk about other things in gambling, including discussing handling your first gambling experience. so, ideally you should feel it first before we discuss much about gambling.

Well, for the post you said in this thread, especially the first point. First, prepare yourself to have a casino you can trust. We have several casinos that have a reputation that can be trusted and relied upon, as well as credibility that can be accounted for as far as I have experienced. After that, you can enjoy all kinds of game features provided by the casino platform. and the most important part is, the question for you, why are you gambling, the answer is keep it to yourself. because what I say will be related to what you are asking. whether it's preparing yourself for your gambling experience, what you expect, want from the gambling you do, and how you respond when you experience defeat or win. The point is, you will find the answer from your own question. Once again I will say it, the question is, why are you gambling. the answer varies depending on how you respond and understand it. whether it's to find entertainment and have fun, or you have other ideas and thoughts. thus, of course the answers you will get will be different depending on how you respond to gambling itself. so, good luck trying it and good luck.

It's clear that Japan is much more favored than Indonesia, you can refer to the FIFA rankings for this team. Japan is ranked 17th, while Indonesia is ranked 146th. there is a very significant gap that stands out from the differences between these two teams, whether in terms of player quality, FIFA ranking, experience and stability. apart from that, if we refer to the betting exchange, the differences are so significant that I can't comment much on this side. Japan with @1.05, while Indonesia @29.00.

Ah, it's hard to believe, I really hope for Shin Tae Yong if he is able to bring the Garuda squad to win this match. even though I know very well, the probability that Indonesia will defeat Japan is very slim. remember, in the last match Japan lost against Iraq. they will not waste this match by winning over Indonesia. which means, Japan will play with all their abilities to secure their position to qualify for the next phase.
However, I hope that Indonesia will be able to match Japan's playing patterns. Shin Tae Yong is a smart coach, he will study the weak points of his opposing team's squad in the match against Japan. although I am quite sure, Indonesia will continue to use the same pattern. and they will be heavily attacked by Japan, but hope that the young Indonesian Garuda squad will be able to exploit the gaps to carry out a deadly counterattack. and I hope so. just wait, this match will be held tomorrow.

Currently, Benzema is still registered as an Al Ittihad player. but if I refer to Romano's report, more meetings will be held soon to discuss Karim Benzema's future. however, the situation remains tense at Al Ittihad. The SPL boss still wants Karin Benzema to stay in Saudi, even joining another Saudi club. returning to Europe was only possible with a major pay cut. Well, so far there is no certainty about Karim Bezema's future, especially if Romano reports that there will be many meetings to determine his future.

Let's just say that if Benzema eventually returns to the European League, that means Al Ittihad must immediately find a replacement and at the same time improve the team's strength if the club management wants Al Ittihad's performance and improvement. At least they have to do something so that their team doesn't get worse, because Benzema's departure could have an impact on the team's mentality as a whole. In fact, Al Hilal must make changes not only in the defense line. but in some sectors, like the Al Nassr or Al Hilal squad. Al Ittihad winger, cannot be relied on much, especially in helping Benzema score goals. Apart from that, Al Ittihad is not only satisfied with Ngolo Kante and Fabinho. At least, they have to bring in one more reliable additional player. But I'm not sure if Al Ittihad will make major changes except next summer. Well, let's see what developments come next. After all, there is still time to prepare and change whether there is or without Benzema.

Maybe yes, maybe no.

We'll see what happens when this competition starts again. especially, after the playoffs are over and the round of 16 is about to be held. After that, we will see which team is able to consistently advance to the next phase. so far from all the teams competing, and also those who will play in the playoffs later. only two favorite teams so far, namely Liverpool and Leverkusen. It cannot be denied that currently both Liverpool and Leverkusen are playing good matches in their domestic leagues. especially if these two teams meet opponents who are not that strong. which means, there is a chance that the two favorite teams will progress smoothly to the next round.

However, in football it is unique, it is possible that teams that dropped out of the Champions League, such as Galatasaray, AC Milan, Benfica, could become obstacles when they meet Leverkusen and Liverpool. although in reality, the performance of these two teams could be said to be on fire. however, it does not rule out the possibility that there will be resistance from the teams we mentioned in this competition. however, for now both Liverpool and Leverkusen are the strongest candidates to win the title in this competition. but, let's just follow the matches presented by the European League first, namely the playoffs and progress to the last 16.
