There is no doubt €40 million for a play age 34 and having amazing career at Bayern Munich ideal, and now I read on social media they are going to increase this offer with €50 million, but we have new twist from Bayern Munich sports director that he is saying we are not going to sell him which is really shocking because most peoples understand before end of last season now Robert Lewandowski is going to leave this club the end of this season but suddenly this new twist is going have some drama in this all transfer because I am also feeling they will sell him as they already have replaced his spot with a quality player who can give them good result in Bundesliga and Champions League both competitions.
The lewandowski transfer saga getting interesting with barcelona admitted that they are ready to present him as barcelona player very soon .. while bayern munich side claimed that they are not planning to sell lewandowski anymore , 40 million euros are not something usual for an old player .. but lewandowski are exceptional , he is worth it so yeah ... get this transfer done bbarcelona!
with aubameyang and lewandowski now probably in and dembele probably out .. barcelona seems has no regeneration plan in the near future due the crisis.
Barcelona has a clausal 35 million, only 5 million difference to continue. Bayern must leave him to go because Lewa really wants to go, this makes make relationship tenuous between them. If not continue, I believe it will make him perform going down in Bayern next, it's just a waste, same as Pogba in MU. So like you said, Lewa is getting old, 35 million is huge money for this age, that much money Bayern can bring a young player to Allianz.

I really don't understand why Bayern Munich is so hellbent on keeping the player. I think they can easily let him go and bring in another good striker. But they are not willing to do that because they have not found a really good replacement for this player. And even though Barcelona is giving a lot of hints that they are going to get Robert Lewandowski on the team, I really think they should not do that because there are not financially stable right now.

Yes, with Sadio Mane joining Bayern Munich, maybe it will make it easier for Lewandoski to leave Bayern Munich. At least Bayern Munich will not be too insistent on retaining Lewandowski anymore because they already have a new striker whose performance is not inferior to Lewandowski. So we just have to see who will eventually relent between Bayern Munich and Barcelona, will Barcelona raise their offer or Bayern Munich who will lower the price, or maybe there is another club that managed to steal Lewandowski  Grin.
Barcelona try to bid with lower price for Robert Lewandowski and looks will not reach agreement between Bayern Munich and Barcelona for dealing Lewandowski transfer, but bad impact with one year contract left have chance Bayern Munich losing Lewandowski for next season with free transfer player. I think if get values under 40 million euro not bad decision give chance for Barcelona getting  Lewandowski after Bayern Munich got Sadio Mane from Liverpool. Barcelona fans looks worry if try with lower values actually will have new club give higher bid than Barcelona and losing chance to get Lewandowski.

I think 40 million is a reasonable price for Robert Lewandowski as he is already 34 years old. But Bayern Munich really doesn't want him to leave. Otherwise, they could have sold him for what Barcelona has offered them. And about Barcelona, I think they should not make any transfers like this. They should make some small transfers and try to make the best out of them.

So, I actually don't think it is going to be much of a competition between them and Real Madrid. I hope that it will not be as one-sided as it was the last season. That I am not going to be surprised if it is. It doesn't look like Barcelona is going to be able to get Robert Lewandowski.

I agree with you. Only Real Madrid fought for the title last season. Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona were far behind than Real Madrid. But next season will not be like that. Barcelona is increasing their strength. Although Barcelona is not financially stable now, they are spending enough money to strengthen the team.

Me too i stopped being a football fan since money became the major aspect of football, profesional players became well payed that they lost their passion for football, not to mention that some mediocre player are worth million of dollars i find it really surprising how a defender like maguire is worth more than a defender like maldini the only reason i am still following football is because of gambling.

It is normal that the salary of a star player will be higher. Because of their huge demand, every team wants to get star players in the team. However, this is not always the case. Occasionally we see high wages for less talented players. I would say it is for the team coach. He spends a lot of money to get the player of his choice in the team. And sometimes these players do not perform as well as expected.

In last season, we have too many players enjoy even they are playing soccer in bonus after having very long and healthy career in next season we are again going to watch few players those are over 35+ and mostly other clubs are not interested in them but here in Italy they have chance for giving their best at this age.

They are not suitable for the Premier League if they are older. Because the gameplay of the Premier League is very fast. Injuries to players may increase with age. However, the gameplay of Serie A is not very fast. Players can continue to perform well here even if they are older. Ibra is still playing well with AC Milan despite being 40 years old.

Adeyemi is also a very young and talented striker like Erling Haaland. But I don't think that he has a bigger potential than Haaland now. We will find out about it soon too after new season starts. One season doesn't prove everything of course but it would still give us some opinion. We will see what Haaland will do in a completely different league and under a different system too. The Premier League is much fiercer than the Bundesliga and Guardiola has a unique system to himself.

Haaland has already proved his mettle. Last season we saw his amazing gameplay. He is a very promising player. And with a good squad, he can probably play better. Adeyemi is certainly talented, but I don't think he will play better than Haaland. However, through hard work, maybe he will be able to become experienced.

It seems that we are heading toward another season with real madrid dominating the league, their weakness was their defense last season and now they managed to sign rudiger an excelent defender which in my opinion will make a great pair with either alaba or militao or maybe we can see them all together with alaba playing as a left back either way i don't see barcelona having a successfull season with all the financial problems they are having and they seem unable to sign good players.

They feel Madrid wasn't able to make any changes and had to play with the fairs that they had in the last season I think we could have said that there are some competitions for real Madrid. But now as Real Madrid has strengthened the defense which was their main problem I don't think they will be bothered too much. I also think that Real Madrid is going to dominate the next season as well.

Di Maria is still a solid player and he can contribute nicely to any team he goes to. He is leaving PSG soon and he is rumoured to join Juventus this summer. I think that it would be a good signing for Juventus as I believe that Di Maria can be beneficial for one or two seasons at least. Juventus want to get stronger in attacking and in their midfield also. Di Maria would be a nice addition to their wing. He might be criticized because of being 34 years old now but I don't think this would hinder him from performing good.
I think for a soccer athlete who is still under 40 years of age still has a good performance at least he can still play for the next few seasons and can give his best contribution at the end of his time because when he gets older, Maria must be able to think about old age and I think this is the end of di Maria to become a team from another club because it is impossible to move to another club with an increasing age.

Actually, I have to talk about this player is a very good asset to the team. Oftentimes at this age, a lot of players actually become a burden for a team but that is not the case with di maria. He can still contribute to a team very much and it never feels like carrying a burden when he is with the team. Because everyone lost that he is going to contribute to the team.

There are excellent transfer news in the world football market; Haaland, Mane, Matic, Pogba, Nunez, Bissouma, Tchouameni and others... They're all great and sensational football player transfers, but one of them really catches my attention.
Yes, there is some interesting transfers and we are just in the beginning of this summer transfer period.
I still want to see how CR7 and Lewandowski future club will be! They will move or stay and whether there will be a late period transfer surprises, from Messi for example.

@trendcoin, I didn't even want to say Cristiano Ronaldo make a move because I don't think Manchester United has any plans for him. And he is an old player at 37 years of age so I don't think he honestly has the time to wait and watch. It will be better if he goes to a team that is going to play in the Champions League.

@snipie, Robert Lewandowski might have to stay in Bayern Munich. Barcelona was the only club that was really interested in him and Barcelona even agreed to pay 37 million for a 34 year old player. And that is something no other club is going to do. But Bayern Munich some house still feels that it is not enough

Next season will be a great season for Barcelona for UEFA Europa League,  they didn't give more attention because all their concentration was for them to meet up with good position in the laliga league which they started with a difficult performance. Next  season Barcelona squad will be tough.

I don't think Barcelona is playing in the European league this time. I think they are playing the Champions League and honestly, I don't think there will be a good achievement in the Champions League because I don't think they have a squad that is Champions League standard. They wanted to make their team strong but they could not make good enough transfers.

I don't know anything about associate nations funding so i won't comment on that.

Anyway new ICC chief and many others already said that no one expecting Test cricket to expand to associates nation because it's not practical.

Let's see what happens in next 10-20 years.

LOL.. test cricket expanding to associate nations? The ICC cancelled the 4-day intercontinental cup competition many years ago. And even in second tier test nations such as Sri Lanka and Bangladesh test cricket is becoming irrelevant. Initially I thought that creating three divisions of test cricket will make it more competitive. But we have seen how badly the match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh went, and both these teams will be in the same division even if some re-organization of test cricket takes place.

Test cricket is becoming more and more irrelevant day by day. Almost no one watches test cricket nowadays. Even the really big fans of test cricket have more than with their life and probably don't have enough time right now just like everybody else. And whatever is done it is quite inevitable that that is cricket will not survive for a longer time. So I don't think there is any point in making different divisions now for tests.

The way Aussies were batting I was convinced that they will win the match quite easily. 291 was good target and no one was expecting this SL squad to chase 291 and that too against Aussie bowling lineup. Credit goes to SL top order they played responsibly specially Pathum Nissanka. SL now have got the lead they must not lose from here.
291 is very good target for any team against team like Australia but here in this match Sri Lankan done amazing job, and they go with plane which works for them specially their top order batsmen were on target which help them for winning this match and series on other side Australian bowlers were not good enough as they have for this match which is also big factor for losing this match.

Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis both were in good touch and their technique against Australian bowlers give some good help for winning this match. Now it's good time for them to have some better strategy for future tours because they are still way behind for having some respectable place in cricket world after losing their few legendary players and last few year's humiliation's.

I actually did not think that they would be able to change the 291 run target given by Australia. But Sri Lanka has done a really good job to change the score and win the match quite comfortably in my opinion. Pathum Nissanka and Kushal Mendis have batted really well to make sure that Sri Lanka reaches the target of 292. In the end, the day date with 9 balls left and 6 wickets in hand.

Even though some good things are happening for the cricket players around the world I think Australia should start validating their own players a little more. I don't know why they will not give players a good enough salary. The players are getting a lot of money from IPL and also other franchise cricket and that's why I think they are not saying anything. If they did not have that luxury I think there could have been some problems regarding this situation.
Cricket in India and Australia were completely different. Cricket is the national game of Australia, for the same we can't expect things to be same as India. In India they celebrate cricket and they celebrate the cricketers. In Australia they're common as you and me. So, making business out of India is an easier thing than the same being done in Australia. This is the reason why IPL is a big success and pay big for the players.

I think it actually should be like Australia. Cricket should be a  part of your life and not all of your life. But cricket being so popular in India also has its benefit. India is able to make so much money from cricket which is unbelievable. In Australia, cricket will never be as popular as it is in India because in Australia people play a lot of different games. There is a place for almost any game in Australia but that is not the case in India.

About Robert Lewandowski, things are not clear because Barcelona is having some financial problems and they can't afford a player like this and right now no other team is interested in this player so most chance he is going to stay here for another season even anything can happen in next few weeks because he is not happy here and now want to go any other club which is a big point and FC Bayern Munich management is already done his replacement which is also good even we can't talk about Mane that can he settle here like he has done in Liverpool it's a big question for all. I love Borussia Dortmund but I hate their mentality mostly they manage big profits by selling players at a high price instead of going for giving a tough challenge to FC Bayern Munich for the title race.

Barcelona really wants to get Robert Lewandowski but it seems like under the current situation they will not be able to do that. Obviously, they are not going to pay 50 million for a 34 year old player. And it is also true that Bayern Munich is not going to let him go under 50 million.

As a result of that rough start, rain saved India in the decider match between SA and India. It's very unfortunate that the match was called off due to rain. The series now stands at 2-2. It would have been possible to play this decider, but the weather prevented it. The BCCI shouldn't schedule matches during this monsoon season in South India. It is unfortunate that BCCI is getting busy scheduling IPL only during non-rainy seasons.
We can't say the rough start have saved, even in the previous match India lost 2 by 24 runs. This match is no difference from the previous match. The match can turn anyway. In the previous match it looked like South Africa will reach the target, but things didn't work well. As said BCCI is busy in scheduling IPL, but it has failed in the important match. I think BCCI could've made this plan just to increase the winning chance for India.

This part of the month is not suitable to arrange a match in any part of South India as the monsoon has already arrived in many states. Another crucial match was lost due to the rain. IPL is important would remain important for the BCCI as they now are making more money from it than bilateral series. It is unfortunate that BCCI is more focused on making IPL one of the biggest sporting league in the world than concentrating on international matches.

India had a bad start but the result could have been anything at the end of the match. So I don't think that India got saved by the rain. But the way India started their innings it obviously looks like that. I actually think South Africa threw their chance of winning the series because they had a 2-0 lead. I didn't think they would choke like that after having a lead. And BCCI is always going to be interested to make IPL bigger and bigger. They make a lot of money from the IPL and a lot more money compared to bilateral series.

Manchester City seem to be determined about winning the Champions League title at least for once. They are making their transfer strategies according to this goal as well. They are trying to consolidate their midfield now as they have already done it for their attacking line by signing Erling Haaland. For the midfield, they are intensifying their attempts to sign Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips now. He is a 26-year-old skilled midfielder now. In the meantime, they are trying to sign Brighton left-back Cucurella also. We will see if this effort will be beneficial for them to make it.

Manchester City management is ready to spend a lot of money this season. Guardiola is building his team with talented players of his choice. Perhaps next season they will fight harder for the Champions League title. Manchester City now has experienced coaches like Guardiola. There are also lots of talented star players.

Well every single year Tottenham makes some good transfers for the club. But this isnt enough to win any trophies . They barely get the champions league i think if they want to win the premier league they need to open up their bag and get some superstars in to try and do more with the club

You are right. Each season Tottenham adds several new players to the squad. But it is not enough to win the title. Tottenham needs another experienced striker with Son and Kane. They must strengthen their defense. If the defense is not strong, it is impossible to win against big teams.
918  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 17, 2022, 08:14:09 PM
I have been hearing about nice transfers for Dortmund like Karim Adeyemi. I think that he is a really good choice after Erling Haaland's departure. Adeyemi is also one of the wonderkids in my opinion and he can shine bright thanks to Dortmund also. We would most probably see him also leaving the team at a point but until then I hope he can contribute well to the team. I really want to see Dortmund competing hard with Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title but I still have big doubts about that for the approaching season.

Karim Adeyemi is a very talented and promising player. He is only 20 years old. He has scored 19 goals in 29 matches in his league. He has scored 4 goals in the last season even on the platform like the champions. With an experienced squad like Dortmund, Karim Adeyemi's performance maybe even better.
919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 16, 2022, 04:05:21 PM
Bayern Munich are preparing for another season to dominate.  Grin  They have already started going for some young bloods and Ryan Gravenberch is a successful transfer now. He is surely talented now and he can shine more here. He might need to be patient first of course to become a permanent player in the starting eleven. It isn't easy to make this happen at big teams unless you perform incredibly well. I think Bayern Munich are going to dominate another season as I still don't see a serious alternative.

Bayern Munich will continue to dominate the Bundesliga next season. Dortmund and Leipzig have the ability to compete with Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. But the situation of these two teams is bad now. Dortmund has sold key player Haaland. Leipzig, on the other hand, was very unstable in the previous season. So even if Bayern Munich sell Lewandowski, they can dominate the Bundesliga.

New Zealand managed to give a target of 299 runs. This is a good enough target. I would say New Zealand will either win the match or the match will be a draw. I don't see the possibility of England winning. It is very difficult to win by collecting 299 runs on the fifth day. Moreover, New Zealand's bowlers are very experienced. Let's see if New Zealand can win the match.
England is playing to win the match. They will probably win or lose, their batting looks like they don't want to draw the match. Crawly, Pope and Root did not play well. Maybe Bairstow and Stokes think this is an ODI match. Bairstow scored 43 off 48 balls and Stokes scored 25 off 33 balls. At the moment their run rate is 4.08. England will win this match if they do not lose wickets.
What a brilliant innings by Jonny Bairstow. He is collecting 102 runs with just 77 balls. England now collects 219 runs. And England has scored 93 runs in the last 10 overs. Jonny Bairstow hit 5 over boundaries and 7 fours. The match is now completely under England's control. Only 79 runs are needed to win. It was unthinkable to me that England would win this match.
Truly what a fantastic test we've watched. England playing an alternate brand of cricket as New Zealand bowlers looked helpless on a day 5 wickets which turn out fortune for England. Brutal innings from Bairstow and Stokes giving that finishing touch. A great attitude under new coach and captain. Congratulations England for incredible win.

It was an unexpected result for England to win this match. England is certainly not a weak team. However, it is very challenging to win by batting for 299 runs on the last day. England won because of the devastating batting of Bairstow and Stokes. Seeing their batting today, I thought it was a T20 match being played wearing a white jersey.
