https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11890/12932304/harry-kane-bayern-munich-agree-deal-with-tottenham-for-england-striker

Anyone in munich is also waiting for kane's answer too. this dude is getting hyped after munich has been trying so hard to get him from spurs. Spurs has been giving greenlight. I expect medical test to be completed by kane asap once he say yes to join in bayern.

I hope we will hear his answer tomorrow.

Now it looks like sooner or later this will be confirmed now and Kane is ready for the Bundesliga next season.
This is the answer that was bound to happen and all the drama from the start of the transfer even from last winter is over now with Kane in a Bayern shirt.
Bayern have prepared everything and even the medical venue was set up a few days earlier so now we just have to wait for the official introduction.

Right now we just have to wait about Kane but Bayern still have problems with their defence especially for the goalkeeper.

Before bitcoin  started  existing monetary crime have been existing.  Bitcoin is not a reason for monetary crime,  bitcoin is just for everyone and does not discriminate but accept everyone.
It's just a classic story that is always wrapped in some excuse that bitcoin is bad. This happens often and the reason remains the same because bitcoin can be used by irresponsible people to carry out their actions.
But actually if you look at the comparison of fraud or scam cases that are currently happening isn't fiat also the same. what's the difference with bitcoin? why aren't they called dangerous? the only reason I can see is that fiat has always been one of the main needs for all of us and bitcoin is only a small part of that but on the other hand of course with reasons like this we come to know that saying bitcoin is dangerous because it indicates the crime factor is only a made-up reason to weaken bitcoin.

just days before the start of the new premier league season, wolverhampton wanderers have parted company with coach Julen Lopetegui. 'different views' on various issues were the deciding factor. the spaniard throws after only nine months. the pre-season savior is said to be frustrated with the economic situation at 'wolves', which severely limited them in the summer transfer period.

Reddit says it's because they spent the summer transfer budget last winter to fight the relegation battle. Coach was pissed that there are no incomings and he quit.

But this story doesn't add up, because they've already sold Ruben Neves and some others. So if Wolves (almost) goes down next season, I won't be all that surprised.
It's difficult to be too forceful because they have already spent money last winter with 6 players (70 million more) which makes them limit the transfer this summer.
Lopetegui wanted more but this was difficult for Wolves to give with their finances and this upheaval led to them parting ways as it was difficult to force the two opposing opinions.
It's clearly not going to be a good transition period for Wolves with a tough game against Manchester United just days away.

Gary O'Neil will be trying to calm the turmoil at Wolves but it's clearly a risk for him but he's willing and able to weather the storm at Wolves.
864  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: August 09, 2023, 06:40:49 AM
I am still trying accumulate $20 Bitcoin in daily day trough price under $30,000, my planning until Bitcoin raise to $50,000 stop accumulate and take profit since one years spent few percent of my salary spending to invest in Bitcoin. In my environment have tradition with saving money called lottery club or "arisan" and each time of duration have more than 20 until 30 member, each member will get their fund in next ten days later which spending from 10$ until $20 in daily day and take more than one or two years duration for every one getting their saving fund. But I change my mindset than holding with fiat get potential inflation in the future, I try with accumulate Bitcoin and not stopping yet until bitcoin one day later back up above $50,000.

Its bitcoin still on the dip and as much possible accumulate and keep holding until one time selling our Bitcoin assets in the higher price,
It's too big and I don't think it will be able to be consistent for a long period of time.
Even if it's good but if it can't be consistent I think this can actually hinder. I'm not saying it's not your method, but this level of aggression will be difficult to balance if you have a normal monthly financial situation.
$20/day = $140 per week and for a month for example in one month 30 days = $600 I think this kind of money is difficult to get with income in some countries with lower salary levels.

Maybe it can happen for you but I just want to suggest try to reduce your aggressiveness a little bit because it's not just about 1 or 2 months but consistency needs to be maintained more than that.

Great strategy man. keeping fund limit for day, week or month is a great strategy to control our-self from over gambling and gambling addiction on the other hand it will save us from big losses in the short time. gambling is a high risky place so we should always keep us under control and gamble only for fun purpose. otherwise we have to suffer financially a lot. and for this reason no one will take any responsibility for our activists  and losses.

self-control to minimize the risk of gambling that we do is indeed important. but in most cases like this, it is more the gambler who is addicted. they come to the casino not to have fun. they have the ambition to win. and the plague they expected. the impact might be devastating financially for them. but advice to limit gaming funds may be most effective for controlling the emotions of gamblers who are receiving losses
Therefore when we are in the casino both offline and online and when we do any gambling it is important to do apart from self-control, our state of mind must be completely healthy so that we can think logically and have good control in the end.
Talking about self-control actually looks quite easy when we only rely on theory but when realising it, it is actually a very difficult thing to do especially when we are in gambling.

I also don't want to be naive in this case, even though I often say that self-control is important but when my brain is filled with ambition and emotional when gambling then the word "self-control" will only be useless because it always bumps into the rule with the excuse that it is only occasionally which in the end it actually makes the loss worse because we gamble already in a bad condition.
Who hasnt read online articles titled "10 Steps to Better Self-Control"? But when you're there, with the dice in your grasp or the online casino at your fingertips, theory goes out the window.

In theory, everything is sunshine and rainbows. Reality? This opens a whole new challenge. Self-control is similar to a battery in that it eventually runs out. And in the tense world of gambling, its as if everything is designed to deplete your battery faster. When emotion trumps reason, things become true.

Everyone is imperfect. We all make errors on occasion. The true deal is acknowledging the problem and working to resolve it. And yes, occasionally our brain performs tricks on us by generating all these elaborate excuses. However, knowledge is power, correct? Now that you understand the trick your brain performs, you may be able to stay one step ahead in the future.
Btw I immediately looked for that article Cheesy
and indeed the point is as discussed earlier, no matter how much we say self-control is important everything will feel different when gambling enters a much more intense phase.
I've experienced this in some circumstances and as a result I've gone off the path that I've set as my boundaries.

I consider this my shortcoming in exercising good self-control but hey when we're only human then greed occasionally gets the better of us and I've done that too.
Even if it becomes a bad thing but of course this will also be a good experience so that we can make some good steps for ourselves because theory is just a theory and there can be new experiences that come out of the context of the theory we learnt.

-snip-
Doubts about the new coach will surely continue to exist considering that what Spalletti gave last season was truly extraordinary and this will definitely be a pressure for Rudi Garcia. But on the other hand, of course, if they can maintain their performance like this then there will still be praise and I might not predict what they will be like now because last season I also talked about their condition and my prediction was wrong because it was too dependent on a number of players who they let go like Koulibally and Dries Mertens but it was Napoli's turning point.
There could be other possibilities now with the new Napoli coach being even better than last season although obviously this is definitely a pretty slim possibility.
Yes Sir, if Napoli can maintain their performance then they will get praise. Especially if Napoli can show a good performance in big competition UCL, then their fans will be very happy. By the way, currently Napoli already signed a defender player which has a great potential in the future. I mean Natan Bernardo de Souza, Brazil man is expected to be a suitable replacement in a defensive position. Although maybe not comparable with Min Jae because Natan is still relatively young, but at least Napoli strengthened their squad depth.
Actually, I don't know how this player performed because when he was introduced to Napoli I just found out about this player but when a coach has brought a player then this is indeed a decision that has been considered and this allows him to fill the void because Kim Min Jae left.
He is still very young and his price is not too high. Just like Kim Min Jae before him and I think if Natan can adapt well then it will be very good for him and Napoli.

The current season starts in a few days and we will see how some of the big clubs, especially Napoli, prove in the new season.

Actually for Maguire's condition it is difficult if you want a fair price because seeing from the performance he did made the price decrease and we know that. I think at this time it's pretty good that there are clubs who want his services and letting him go is appropriate.
Indeed, I think this is a little outrageous and Manchester United will certainly lose because the purchase is not worth the sale but rather than seeing several opportunities go the same as the previous season I think they should prefer to sell Maguire.
Besides Harry Maguire performed badly during the last season, he is also already 30 years old. Man United is lucky there is a club that want to sign Harry Maguire. It is the chance to let him leaving the club, he is no longer a key player for Man United. I think Man United is better to accept a low price for Maguire than keeping him for a longer season. I'm sure the market value of Maguire is getting lower and lower if Man United keeps him. It is because Harry Maguire will mostly spend his time on the bench.

This must be considered by Manchester United because forcing him to stay another season but staying on the bench will also make his value even less so it would be nice if Manchester United released him as soon as possible and replaced with a more promising player.
Not to make as if Maguire is bad in this case but his performance at Manchester United is not suitable unless he can show a change in performance might be a consideration.

Harry Kane is a top striker and you have listed his qualities very well. It's not just the offensive zone that matters to him. It is also very effective in areas outside the offensive zone. From time to time, he comes back and helps his team, taking the attack. It creates great dangers in counter attacks. Considering that the opposing team's defenders are trying very hard to defend him, creating empty space is an advantage for his team.
Right now I think it's just a matter of seeing the decision Tottenham make for Kane.
Bayern boldly made a final offer at 100 million + 20 million bonuses and when this is still not agreed upon then Bayern will definitely withdraw and look for other options.
It looks like Bayern don't want to linger now with this drama because they realise that if it continues to be an endless drama they will also lose by not getting Kane and not being able to look for other player options.
At the moment we just have to wait whether at this price Tottenham will still hold Kane or not because if you look at the clause proposed earlier at 100 million then this price is more than enough to bring Kane to Bayern.
869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 06, 2023, 09:58:52 PM
I think that is a good decision taken by Napoli. I believe they should keep him on the team. Actually they must have to give him playtime as much as they can, they have to utilize him properly. By doing this maybe other players also will be interested to come to their club if they find the club is performing better. It is really interesting what napoli is doing, they are trying their best to keep their players and instead of selling them, they are trying to improve their quality. They are just not trying to sell the players and get the money. They are genuinely going for trophies. That's what I like to see from a club.  And as the defending champion of the serie-a they must be serious about league games. I am interested to see if they can do better in the Champions League this time.
Indeed it was a good decision, if to aim for the title, so Napoli must be able to maintain what they achieved last season. Although I doubt it, because Spalletti isn't at there anymore but at least they kept their key players, so the opportunity to get a title is still open for them Sir. This new season will be the toughest challenge for Napoli with their new coach I mean Rudi Garcia, him must be consistent to get lots of points.
Doubts about the new coach will surely continue to exist considering that what Spalletti gave last season was truly extraordinary and this will definitely be a pressure for Rudi Garcia.

I think when talking about investing especially for bitcoin it is still very possible regardless of the many technologies that are getting better and better it does not become a benchmark for being in bitcoin is not possible especially when we talk about investment then bitcoin is still worth it even though a lot of new technology is discovered.
What we have to remember in this case is that investment is not a day or two to get profit but we may talk about years to be able to really earn so by looking at the progress that exists for the last few years I think it doesn't matter with the existence of new technology or whatever it is everything will be fine if it is in bitcoin because I still believe they will continue to develop in a better direction.

It should be a given, however, I understand that may tend to forget about that. Investing is not a quick run to get money. It takes months, if you are lucky, but normally years to see the profit in investing. Money doesn't come easy and quickly as much as we all wish it will. New technology or not, investments in Bitcoin and assets will continue to exits and give profit with enough time.
Therefore, before we start investing it is very important to see what kind of instrument or asset we will invest in, besides that our thinking must also be more open because in the end this is not the easiest and fastest way unless you are someone who is naive who thinks that way.
Investment needs to be a condition where we are aware of the actions taken and patient to wait for time because back to the initial discussion, this is not just a day or 2 but takes longer than that.

What we have to remember in this case is that investment is not a day or two to get profit but we may talk about years to be able to really earn so by looking at the progress that exists for the last few years I think it doesn't matter with the existence of new technology or whatever it is everything will be fine if it is in bitcoin because I still believe they will continue to develop in a better direction.
Because the truth is that there is no such investment that we can earn a profit right away. So if we are investing in Bitcoin and that is our mindset and expectation, I would say that we are not suited for this stuff. Because it was very clear and if we are able to understand what is investment means, it is absolutely we have to become patient or else, we just only disappointed. That is why I see a lot of individuals who are investing today but after a few days, they have gone. It is a good decision because it was hard to invest if we are impatient, we only just lose in the end.
Learning everything from scratch and being prepared to take risks is one of the things that must be considered and when we encounter many people who are just here and then a few days away we know what their reasons are and there is no way it will work.
They need to learn more about what they want to explore instead of just following other people just because they see the benefits because in the end, such greed without more learning will only lead to a loss of profit.

Currently, when Amrabat has agreed, the sacrifice is Van de Beek, who is likely to be released to Sociedad now. On the other hand, there are also the names of Maguire and MacTominay who are still interested in West Ham. I think for Maguire it should be done quickly.


What an end for Van De Beek, I remember clearly 5 years ago he was called the new Pogba...
Honestly, I actually like this player, it's just that when he was injured for a long time and he came when the Manchester United era was in bad shape, he was alienated and he didn't even get much chance to play.
The possibility of him going to Sociedad is high now hopefully he can get something interesting there and get his form back.

It is rumoured that Manchester United and Fiorentina have agreed to a 30 million clause for the purchase of Amrabat. But with his arrival, there are indirectly some players who must be allowed to leave.
Amrabat has seen his performance during the last world cup, on the other hand for Fiorentina he is also one of the vital players so this could be a very good addition to Manchester United.

Currently, when Amrabat has agreed, the sacrifice is Van de Beek, who is likely to be released to Sociedad now. On the other hand, there are also the names of Maguire and MacTominay who are still interested in West Ham. I think for Maguire it should be done quickly.

When the coach Erik Ten Hag came into the club last season he made a statement that 'Eras Come To An End' and to make that statement possible he'll try his possible best to take the club back to their glory days  which he's already achieving gradually by wining a trophy for them, qualifying for the champions league and reaching the FA Cup finals though they lost against the current championship Manchester City who's also their neighbours.
 He know that to be very successful he needs of offload several players that are finding it difficult to adapt to his system and strengthen several areas that really needs to be strengthened,and he's started by bringing in several players that's helped United last season and also introducing new players in this current window at several areas of the club.
 The introduction of Amrabat would be a very good step because Amrabat is an already proven player and has proven himself in the world cup and if he replicates such performance in United then I means that their mid position would be really strengthened, according to news he was left out in training and recent pre-season matches with Fiorentina and his arrival is imminent with the possine departure of several players like Van De Beek and Fred
Ten Hag as the current Manchester United coach is quite good when compared to the previous coaches (Rangnick Era and Ole) of course Ten Hag is much better.
He already knows the plan that will be done for next season, Amrabat can be a good option to improve the midfield as well as a reshuffle because we know for some midfielders only adoption from the previous coach.
But at the moment they also still have a burden because looking at their current situation, Manchester United set too big a price for the sale of players who are not really worth the performance.
An example might be Maguire in this case because I think it's pretty good when I see that there are clubs who want this player but Manchester United are trying to increase the price.

Manchester United are fighting for players like Fred and Van Beek to leave before they can advance for the pursuit of Amrabat.
Amrabat has been positively waiting for the deal to be done. He has rejected every other deal just to work with his former boss in ajax league.  So much potential was unlocked during the world Cup. More will be see when he joins his new team mates.

Maguire feels insulted by the chase from West Ham,  he feel like if they want to get him then  they should improve their bid. So far it is not easy going.  The right fee has got to be merit before he moves.

Every task should have a specific target, if a task has a target then it is easier to do that task. We can also fix any target in Bitcoin investment. We must fix the target before investing. It is necessary to plan in advance how long the investment should be. Target should be fixed before long term and short term investment it will be easier to hold the investment. Currently, the price of every commodity in the world has increased a lot due to global inflation. Since the inflation is taking a terrible shape day by day, we should be alert about it in advance. If you keep money in bank there is a possibility of losing that money then why keep money in bank where we have the best platform to invest. In this time of inflation money should be put into bitcoin instead of bank.

Nowadays, it is difficult to define investment goals because of the rapidly changing market conditions due to the introduction of artificial intelligence. This creates big problems for any business - because the need for different technologies is disappearing too quickly. Investing in bitcoin with the goal of getting 2x in the long term is also not very feasible
I think when talking about investing especially for bitcoin it is still very possible regardless of the many technologies that are getting better and better it does not become a benchmark for being in bitcoin is not possible especially when we talk about investment then bitcoin is still worth it even though a lot of new technology is discovered.

Amrabat left Fiorentina during the preseason this weekend
He is doing a deal with Manchester United.

I really like this player, he is a complete player.

Actually I think this is a form of self-defence for PSG.
PSG realise that now their relationship with Mbappe is not going well so they have to look for other alternatives without Mbappe because sooner or later Mbappe will definitely leave.
It was the right decision taken by Enrique because it was also forced to include Mbappe in the plan with conditions like this I think it will not be too good so inevitably they have to try to create a new scheme without Mbappe in it and actually it's not much different if you see a friendly match it's just that the finisher is still not good.
Kylian Mbappe has clearly made his intentions about his future known to Paris Saint Germaine and I think it was a  right decision for the club to put him on the list of players that will be sold this summer.
Ousmane Dembele has some kind of similar Football  attributes to that of Kylian Mbappe and that's why everyone at the club wants him to be signed as Mbappe's replacement despite the concern that he's injury prone
But for now when we talk about Dembele with a release clause of 100 million this is a bit excessive with his condition.
Indeed he is a player who has potential but looking at his injury history and performance at Barcelona even though it is still fairly good but still I think 100 million is too big for now.
As for Mbappe, PSG is trying to continue to make approaches but it is clear that the alternative is to sell it's just that until now no one can really be said to be serious because the rumours are still confusing for now.
The transfer window closes in a few weeks and I think now is the time for them to really make a serious decision.

As for Islamic Coin, it appears to be an interesting altcoin that aligns with Islamic principles, potentially appealing to the Muslim community's values. Being Shariah-compliant and considered halal,
This is the first time I've heard about this. Maybe the concept is good to put forward sharia values. However, I agree with your thoughts, is it possible for a coin like this to survive and continue to grow in the market? Or is it only part of the hype project that only promotes?
Hey, I just heard about this coin but I personally don't really like this kind of thing because I think the concept of bringing things to religion I think is not very good because it is precisely things like this that can create debate.
On the other hand when talking about progress I don't think I need to see anything whether it's about white papers or roadmaps because I think things like this are only temporary because the thing for tokens like this is that regardless of the name islamic or ordinary meme coins, they will still only make pump and dump schemes after that they are discarded.

While some of us wants to see Vlahovic reported transfer to Chelsea materialize, a question that I'm yet to get the answer is does Chelsea really need Vlahovic?
Chelsea already have a lot of young promising players in the team, The coach do not really need to bring in more players, their major aim will be the premier league so a small and decent team can win it for them or get them champions league qualification next season. Nkunku aside his injuries is a better player than Vlahovic to me, and Jackson can do the job if there is a need for him to.
But for now even though they have a lot of promising young players, I think they are still mentally lacking so there needs to be one player who has a strong mentality and has experience to be a role model.
The current reshuffle by Pochettino has made them lose some players which is actually quite unfortunate in my opinion.
Although it is possible that Pochettino has other thoughts so that their squad is more controllable but removing a lot of players who in my opinion can still play well will clearly create a void.
877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 04, 2023, 09:16:52 PM
Dembele is the player about whom people are talking about the most. But we shouldn't forget about Goncalo Ramos transfer which is about to be announced soon also. Ramos is a quite young player now maybe but he has a lot of potential. He has been an important part of Benfica for a while by scoring so many goals so far.

PSG have been in search of a decent centre-forward with or without Mbappe's departure. He is staying for this season as well probably so we can see Mbappe leaving his position in the lineup to Ramos.

It doesn't matter where Mbappe plays in the attacking line of course. Because he has a playing style for himself and he keeps it wherever we see him in the lineup.
In fact, PSG are doing the maximum they can to recruit players and build an independent attack line from Mbappe. They want the team to not rely on Mbappe so they can leave him in the benches without any active role so he regrets not renewing the contract and not moving to Real Madrid this transfer window.
Actually I think this is a form of self-defence for PSG.

By the way, Liverpool and Chelsea will have an additional advantage in the Premier League - both of these clubs will not participate in the Champions League (and Chelsea will not be in European competition at all) so they will be able to concentrate on one tournament. They can even plan the season in a radically different way without trying to bring the team to peak shape during the Champions League playoffs.
Liverpool may still be a little troubled in the Europa League even though I still feel confident they will pass the group phase easily but still their schedule will still be as much. but for Chelsea now they can focus on being in the competition in the EPL especially this is also a transitional phase for them where last season's performance will definitely still be a lot of people who are sceptical.
But obviously their schedule is lighter, this should be more power for them to improve their position well and be able to return to European competition next season.
The challenge for Tuchel and Chelsea with a new face is a separate pressure for them.

I am 100% sure that until the decisive stages (when the title is already close) like the 1/4 finals, Liverpool will play the second (rotated) squad. Therefore, in such competitions, I will not bet on them (and I do not advise anyone) even when they play against a much weaker opponent. The odds will not cover the risk. In addition, in the group stage, the club always has the right to make several mistakes, and in the playoff stage, to one.

As for the coating squad, I think for things like this you have to look depending on the opponent they will face.
At the moment we also still don't know who the opponent for Liverpool will be, although indeed the possibility for them to win is something absolute regardless of whoever the opponent is because for the Europa League it is clear that most of those competing are dark horse clubs so it is natural for Liverpool to be the favourite for this competition.
As for the group phase I think the scenario is that they will look for points first until they are actually declared qualified for the group phase after that then it is up to them to make some experiments even though certainly for the first few matches they must try to get points.

In fact, it’s not entirely clear why United was successful (relatively, since before the purchase of Casemiro things were going terribly) last season - maybe it was a certain merit of Liverpool and Chelsea which flew out of the top and vacated a place there. In the upcoming season they will return to business and I think that even a place in the top 4 is not guaranteed to anyone. As for the title, as long as there is a City, there is no point in talking about it.
Well it's true when we think back on the strength of Manchester City. So we can only take a deep breath because reaching this one club seems really difficult. Manchester City is like a big wall that every club in the Premier League has to go through if they want to win the title.

Maybe it's true that Manchester United last season so smoothly could land in 3rd place because there were 2 clubs that had experienced quite severe inconsistencies at the start of the season, namely Liverpool and Chelsea. Because if Chelsea and Liverpool can play well from the start of the season then maybe Manchester United will find it difficult to even land in the top 4. Liverpool did get back up last season but they got up too late. Because when Liverpool started to find their game again it turned out that the season was almost at its end. So that Liverpool's successive wins at the end of the season could not make this club penetrate the top 4.

But this season I feel it will be different from last season. I expected more difficult competition than last season.

Do you know of any restaurants and/or supermarkets in the US and abroad that sells food for BTC? It would be nice to avoid Fiat altogether and use BTC to buy our life necessities. The only place I could think of is El Salvador with its acceptance of Bitcoin as legal tender. It's likely every merchant and business there accepts BTC as payment method. I don't know about the US and developed countries. Could someone enlighten me? Thanks in advance. Smiley
Currently, this is only possible in countries that have embraced bitcoin and accept it as legal tender.
But in countries that are currently still hindered by regulation it is quite difficult including in my country.
Indeed, some time ago there was one area that provided this to add to the attractiveness, especially since the area is often visited by tourists, but at this time, payments using bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are a little difficult because new regulations have emerged. Even though for now bitcoin can still be one of the investment tools but for payments it is still prohibited in my country.
