Everton knew how hard to achieve 10 points when we are entering at the middle of season. The chance for everton to be relegated became even bigger. this makes the club will be trying to defend its points.

Quote
Everton are prepared to fight the Premier League over their recently imposed ten-point penalty and are confident that it will be drastically reduced or even rescinded, 90min understands.
https://www.90min.com/posts/everton-fight-points-deduction-confident-overturning-ruling

That has reminded me with what juventus did when it was receiving the first sanction. Juventus was also defending it then the club was able getting the points back again. Will it happen to the everton? We know that if everton has the right to defend itself but it has small chance for the club to rollback again its points. I hope everton will get back its points even thought the chance is quite small.

Let's see how it will be going on with everton.

Bnb is one of the altcoins that has strong potential and fundamentals in the crypto world, therefore currently Bnb is a favorite investment for all crypto users, including myself, I cannot confirm what will happen after the next five years to Bnb, but I really believe that Bnb will always be the best investment in the long term.
seeing from the chart of BNB itself i don't really sure whether BNB could be called favourite investment for all crypto users because it hardly rise.
the thing with BNB it has faced too many problems ever since and thats why even recently BNB has lost some value, this is the thing with BNB, too much problems surrounding it, hope CZ actually can sort it out but then he also stepping downf rom his position of CEO which means Binance is at the lowest point of the year right now.
even in rather bullish market sentiment like this BNB was still hardly rising I doubt it will be good investment even in the future but if binance could somehow get all their problems sorted out then it might give chance for BNB to increase in market capitalization and value somehow.

For me, financial freedom is when you don't think about your needs anymore, because they are automatically covered, and you don't worry about investing, even those that have high risks because someone will handle it if you lose.
You will not be afraid to take any further steps to try to increase your income, because your income is already greater than your expenses.
In my opinion, those who have reached a state of financial ease are still thinking about how they can earn more income and this does not mean that those who have achieved financial freedom do not think about experiencing losses in the investments they make, but they will be more careful. In making a decision regarding the investment they make, there are even some people I see who have financial freedom who still record all forms of expenses they incur to be able to find out whether they have used the money they have well or not.
i was earlier believing that financial independent is when you don't need to work for money but have enough money to fulfill your needs, then I realized that such thing might be inexistent, there is reason why some billionaires are still working or at least still getting in touch with their companies even when they are already old enough for retirement aside from the fact that they might favour working than just lying around, they also realized that their wealth could be very well eaten up if things goes wrong and most of the time with business thing will go wrong, thats why they eager to take care their company even more so if they have descendant where they'd be relying on the company.
Its a fact that inflation eats up wealth and therefore we need some prevention and one of them is keeping our wealth increase in value as well which isn't easy most of the time.

Holding big share of BTC and ethereum in my portfolio then allocate few for new emerging coin which later could help increase the value of my main holding which is BTC and ETH because at the end of the day i'd convert them to my main holding is one way to accumulate more and more wealth I think, if I lose so much because altcoin, I still have my main holding.
but I know that with responsible investing added with the fact that i always analyzed some new coin fundamentally and see the team behind the project as well I think it has proven to be quite worthy of investment that sometime it give quite many returns.
I think many people also doing what im doing, increasing the main portfolio by venturing their small capital into new coin which kinda fluctuative and then convert it back to main holding.
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 23, 2023, 04:48:51 PM

I wouldn't say that Juventus have no chance against Inter. Juventus are currently in second place in the standings and have not many less points than Inter. If they win, they will be in first place. It seems to me that this game has no favourites.
I also agree that Juventus have chance to also win the match just as many people think Inter Milan will win, but this injury news is what baffles me and made me think of something else because Inter is a good team that will stand firm against Juventus, and if Juventus will be playing without some key players, it will be hard for them to win Inter Milan
Playing at home should be boosting the mentality of the juventus players. The upcoming match between Juventus and Inter is expected to be highly interesting, as both teams are currently in their best condition. I hope there will be no boring game from this big match. It's very often to see a big match but a club was playing fully defensive which is not even entertain enough to be watched. Intermilan shall perform fully offensive against juventus and this game will be amazing to watch. Lautaro will become a man that will always be threatening juventus's goal keeper.
One positive aspect is that Inter Milan also possesses players who have the ability to take long shots. It has been proven by the previous games that intermilan's goal is to showcase their versatility in playing from both inside and outside the box.
Juventus may also need to implement something that can prevent it. The goal keeper can be threatened with long shoot easily by inter.

I don't quite get why some players are great at some places and not so great at other places, even under different managers. Griezmann is one of them (lukaku is another perfect example), he played so well at ATM, played terribly at Barcelona, and could be attributed towards their huge debt, they paid so much for him and made absolutely nothing on him basically. United would be taking a huge risk there, I mean it would be awesome for them if he plays like he is playing at ATM, that would benefit them for sure, but if he plays like he played at Barcelona then suddenly that would be terrible money spent for them. Plus ATM just got him full-time recently, he was on loan there, so it would be a difficult situation, he still has  long contract there.

That's the thing with life — different people are gonna shine in different circumstances and it's not entirely their fact. It's similar to how we move across different places or phases in life and some favors us and some do not. I knew Greizman won't have a good time at Barcelona since he spent majority of his time in spain not liking the club especially when he was red hot at ATM between the 2015—2018 seasons. As for Lukaku, as someone who has become used to Italian style of play, i Knew it would be difficult for him to cope with the high pace of football and the aggressive defenders in the EPL.

Well, I honestly did not expect too much bad performance from Griezmann. But I did expect the bad performance of Lukaku. Because he went from the style of Italy, which is built up, lobbed through style of play to the very fast style of the English Premier League. So that was somewhat expected. And I also believe that a lot of players who went from Italy to the English Premier League didn't do very well at that time. But I thought Griezmann would not face too many problems because he is a really good player. But now we know how a player can perform so badly if he doesn’t like the circumstances.
Griezmann was a flop in barcelona. Will he try to repeat the same mistake again? come on man, griezmann shall not do that of i would call him as a stupid guy. He needs to play where he can feel confident with the enviroment.
Going to the manchester united is a set back for him. Im sure griezmann will be back into the form when he played in barcelona. Even though his release clause is quite cheap at this moment but ten hag needs to think again.
My impression for ten hag if this coach is always rushing in everything without doing deep evaluation. It's starting from hojlund then reguilon and onana. Who's next? Griezmann, thomas muller? Manchester united is now targeting old player.
Ten hag lost his sense. he can't use his mind properly again.Some players need to be replace but it doesn't mean ten hag shall buy the old player.

There will be some sanctions will be given to the manchester city if the club will be proven with its guilty.

- 30 points deduction-
- Relegation to the championship division




There have been many rumors said that if manchester city will be relegated to the championship. We may able to see the result next year but city is still safe right now. It seems like FA is not considering chelsea to violate FFP rules.

It will be a disaster for city fans if they will be seeing their favorites club to compete in championship division. What about you guys?

Do you guys agree city to be sanctioned relegate to the championship? This is a very interesting question.

The issue is that "majority" of the C students do not make more than A students, if you are a student that gets A all your academic life, you will on average make more than a student that gets C all their academic life. However, there are some C students who jump into some idea and make a lot, and yes in that case they do earn more, but they are the outlier and not the real expected outcome. If you look at people with 3.50+ gpa and look at people with less than 2.50 gpa and compare their salaries, you will find that the one with 3.50+ gpa will make more, just because there are some examples of bad students making money, doesn't mean that is the average how they do.
true, many are seeing the top earners, basically saying that the ones good at academic only become workers meanwhile the dropouts become billionaire, thats not wrong, but one should know that those billionaire that are college drop outs dropping out from ivies, meaning they are actually good at academic if they willing to put effort, but they've found their passion before finishing their college therefore they decided to drop out.
its kinda different if you compare with those that dropping out because incapable of finishing academic you know, many of them don't earn that much, as many statistics have illustrated, the high income household are those that have good college degree prominently from ivies that excels in the academic and could get into FAANG even fortune 100. never underestimate the power of academic degree more especially from ivies it give you massive connection and good impression at first glance.
929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: So we got new CEO of Binance on: November 23, 2023, 12:23:12 AM
I believe the recent news might negatively affect Binance and BNB Coin. The abrupt drop in BNB could be attributed to some investors reacting with fear to CZ's resignation. Nevertheless, it's possible that only the title has changed, and CZ remains involved with Binance.
CZ as a CEO does really have a lot of influence toward binance success so far, he abandoning the position instantly causes massive problem for Binance aside the fact that binance is already having problem that they need to face in the first place.
his resignation instantly causes massive withdrawal, drops of BNB value in the market and many people doubting so much about the future of binance that I think it gonna causes some wave in the market and might possibly cancels out the preparation of bitcoin towards massive bullrun though im expecting the ETF influence toward the market will become unshaken even with resignation of CZ since binance will still be intact and not going anywhere anyway, they still have billions of money as a reserve.
but will such problems also gonna go towards other exchange? we don't know for sure, maybe other exchange also need to learn from binance.
930  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: November 22, 2023, 04:52:38 PM
Meanwhile, for the Barcelona team, which is currently in great difficulty and also lacks players, of course this is quite a loss, and Xavi, the Barcelona coach, must work even harder in arranging tactics with the available players so that the team's performance is maintained.
I think Xavi will continue to play the remaining players currently available in the main squad even though maybe later Xavi will have to look for a replacement, but it takes careful thought to find the right player to replace Gavi after a serious injury, of course this is very detrimental to Barcelona especially considering they still playing in the UCL and also maintaining their position in Laliga.

Barcelona must continue to consistently be on the winning track to remain at the top of the standings in order to be able to hunt for the title this season by taking advantage of the failures that Girona or Madrid might make at the end of the season. Barcelona must be able to play with players from the existing main squad and of course they will probably there are slight changes due to Gavi's injury in the main squad. I think Xavi has thought about everything and knows how to handle this situation.

i think Barcelona could be one of the teams that become more active during the winter transfer period. With Gavi being out for a long time and also knowing that Lewandowski could drop out because of an injury again since he is not the youngest player anymore, it could make sense for them to be careful and do something about the depth of their squad. They can't just buy any player, but if there is an opportunity to add some quality even if it is only temporary like a loan player, it should be done I think. There are a lot of games ahead of them in the next few months.

How is it possible? barcelona is still in the financial trouble. Even if the club will put some young players for sale and it will not enough since barcelona is still having unpaid debt. Barcelona is likely able to buying the cheap striker from another club.
I don't believe if barcelona will able to get lots of money to buy the new players again. Im thiking that if barcelona will find difficult to do that as barcelona has obligation to pay the money owe by the club from other club.
Barcelona is still having a lot of unsolved problems.
931  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 22, 2023, 04:34:16 PM
It's definitely not going to be an easy match for Paris Saint Germain, even though they will be playing at home. Monaco is a club that can really beat Paris Saint Germain, especially if Paris Saint Germain have a decline in performance like they showed at the beginning of the season.
They must also realize something like this, because after all Monaco cannot be underestimated with their performances that tend to be good until week 12.
If Paris Saint Germain make a lot of mistakes and lose a lot of focus, I'm sure they will lose to Monaco in this match.
If the game was few weeks ago I would say Monaco chance is higher but right now PSG is doing fine and should win the game. They are playing home additionally. Odds in bookies are in favour of PSG. We are talking about 1.4 odds for PSG to win the game vs 6.6 for Monaco. Only Nice - Toulouse and Lille - Metz games have higher odds of 7.6 and 10.5 respectively.
Obviously, this will depend from how ready PSG is and how fit Mbappe will be in that game.

Im concerning about the line up. The line up will determine how big the possibility owned by PSG to win the game. In fact, missing emery would not be a big problem for PSG as there was other player who can replace him at this moment.
The only problem for PSG if monaco is also in its best performance too. It may be a bit difficult for PSG to win against monaco. The draw is also possible to happen but mbappe may able to make the difference for the upcoming match.

Enrique needs start to put his hope for mbappe. When the club finds itself in a position where winning the game seems impossible, there is only one person who can change the situation. that's it mbappe.
Even though he has not yet won UCL but people called him as GOAT. 

Can't wait to see mbappe show another great performance like when he was playing for france. Mbappe is on fire right now. He is ready to ruin monaco at parc de princes.
Making two goals are good enough for mbappe during the game against monaco.
932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: November 22, 2023, 04:17:01 PM

Personally I don't give United any chances to actually catch 3rd place that will push them to Europa League because like you said above , they are really vulnerable and not only in UCL but in all competitions they are currently engage ( UCL , Premier League , FA Cup , etc ). They will play against Galatasaray and I think Galata will take this one or at least a draw that will secure 3rd spot for them to catch Europa League.
It's natural to think that way about Manchester United, but for me personally I still give them a chance to go to the Europa League or even accompany Bayern Munich to the round of 16, even though I know it will be very difficult with their current performance. But 1 point is a distance they can still chase with 2 matches remaining in the Champions League this group stage.
Europa league could be the right place for manchester united but yeah MU was also failed in europa league last season. I expect nothing if ten hag's club will able to go to the top 16. Mu may probably lose easily against its opponent with the current performance.
MU was not in a good shape and it seems money has become the only main target by manchester united at this moment in UCL. The performance of manchester united was so bad.
Ten hag may able to see his team to be humiliated in the top16 by its opponent if MU will able to qualify. The match against galatasaray will be a key but im doubting united to wint he game.
United is always showing average performance and nothing being improved since last season. The only thing that i aware if manchester united has more problem rather than last season.

Then then it depends on how they try to make it happen, what kind of effort they make it will be very decisive. And if they are still the same as before, then there is no chance for them, unless they have very big luck.
What can we expect from a club that may also lost its goal keeper? Manchester united didn't even have good secondary goal keeper. The club is in a disaster and none expected onana to be injured.
933  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which is more profitable trading ETH/USD or ETH/BTC on: November 22, 2023, 01:28:38 AM
Can you give me insight, do you think trading via ETH/BTC is more profitable than ETH/USD? Please give me an advice.
trading against unstable coin it seems very difficult to calculating profit or lose to me,
i am trading with matic & eth and i see it is extra stress specially in quick entry or sell when it's take time to calculate.
i am familiar to use usdt pair always and i think mostly people's do that. and also i think against unstable coin trading can not be more profitable from stable coin.
added with the fact that sometime USDT pair usually have more liquidity, and yes I think so too that calculating become harder with a lot of decimals for the convenient sake of exchange could come up with solution to embed dollar worth value side by side with the btc value it will be solved, but i guess some people also prefer stablecoin because the stablecoin itself hardly fluctuate by high margin within short amount of time.

I personally has always been using stablecoin trading pair for simplicity sake but can't deny the fact that bitcoin is definitely way to go for bagging cryptocurrencies because its capability of always reaching new heights of price level.
but in the case of simplicity sake, stablecoin might be more effective in this regard, not to mention the fact that we already used with the nominal of fiat in daily life.

Using Binance Exchange for a long time I'm in love with that Exchange due to its impressive strong security through which my funds I seems are safe there.


We consider Binance exchange more secure as it is the most popular cryptocurrencies exchange in the crypto space. But centralized exchange will never 100% safe because it can be hacked at any time & you have no control with your assets, It's a big disadvantage in CEX's. 
even more so at the time of controversy with these cex, currently binance just had this controversy and so many people are already ready to withdraw their money off the exchange.
but overall if its not that significant amount of capital any of these reputable exchange will do just fine, just be sure to pick exchange with most of the liquidity because thats where you might get the first market change impression than the other. moreover with using reputable exchange we could be prevented from mistakenly investing in some random meme coin which obviously didn't get through the review process of these reputable exchanges.
I think right now, the event where these exchange are losing some significant amount of money from their wallet are quite rare many of them has given some prevention from that from happening.

pro trend is the easier? you know the saying about when in bullish everyone become trading guru/masters? because every their decision would be turning out to be true, any one telling you to invest in the shittiest coin in existence at hard bullish it will increase eventually, thats why its easier to trade pro-trend you just have more opportunity since there are large flow of investment going around.
moreover, what counter-trend exactly is? trading a coin that still in premature stage basically a very niche which you might think will eventually become large enough to become a category on its own or you simply trading some outdated NFT like technology? its still unclear what counter-trend trading actually is in my opinion, just go with the flow if you're not strong enough (strength = capital).

De Bruyne is a very quality player. There are very few people in the world who play football with intelligence like him. While the fact that he is still playing football is enjoyable for us, the spectators, I am sure that Guardiola will put him on the field at the right time. I hope he can perform again after his injury.
Guardiola is trying to find his replacement at this moment and dani olmo became the strongest candidate to replace him. His age has become the main reason why pep was not interesting to give him more chance. I think that de bruyne can also leave from manchester city anytime. He was not young anymore and he can also consider to go to the saudi pro league which has been approaching him as well by offering very huge salary to play there.
Ronaldo was also interesting to see him join in the SPL. That's sad to miss him since the season was just starting. It would be so good to see de bruyne to play in any of big matches this season.
His serious injury has ruined his chances to play this season.

Xabi Alonso must be wanting every thing he could achieve with Leverkusen now.  Grin  Because their look in the recent times has been really incredible. They are very ambitious for the Bundesliga and Europa League both. They are surely one of the top contenders in both competitions at the same time. It is up to how consistent they will be throughout the season.
Giving a good achievement for leverkusen will be also giving good impact to his performance and adding more portfolios in his career. There was no coach that is willing to see their favorite club to lose or get nothing. Leverkusen is on the right track at this moment.
I can't imagine when xabi will leave from leverkusen. There will be a set back for leverkusen. The club may back again to the what it used to be. Leverkusen is too dependent on xabi right now. He was able changing the club so much.
No doubt that if there are many people who were also praising him at this moment especially leverkusen fans. Glad to see we have another strong club this season.

I really wonder how Xabi Alonso has created a bond like this with the players. Because I had doubts about him first because of his being first serious manager experience. It was actually the first experience for him considering managing a main team rather than Real Sociedad B.  Grin
The better you can watch it through leverkusen's twitter or clip. Xabi was only coaching them but he was telling them all about how to play football correctly.
Xabi has lots of experience to do that.

Dlyou pay for signals? And how much ?
What's your monthly expenses for trading signals? Yearly?
I don't pay but i read alot people pay for signals so how good results If this ?
I do not know if many people are paying for signals, but if we conduct a survey on 100 traders, if 50 are newbies and 50 are old traders. The traders that make use of signals most would be newbies while hardly will use see old traders still using signals, because signals will fail and they will understand why not to use signals. So do not bother to use signals, learn how to trade and use the amount of money that you can afford to lose to trade.
Yep, trading signal groups are famous among newbies, people who are too lazy to learn to trade on their own. For me, if you are a newbie, it's not good.
But not all trading signal groups are bad, because there are some groups that will teach you trade like sometimes they are explaining why they come up on that trade.
true its all come back to the group owner, sometime there are some people that might give some knowledge for their member but some also will just giving what you pay for.
usually its after few years that the group went shit and the signal become inconsistent and useless that they start to give some redflag towards their own group basically trying to profit off member by doing something like pursuing you into buying some shitty coin so that they can cash out only when that kind of thing occurred that it become quite problematic.
only use signal if we don't have clue about how to make analysis and still have insufficient knowledge otherwise do our own analysis only then we could profit more from our trades not just depending on some random stranger , nobody in this world will try to make you rich instead they will make themselves rich.
939  Economy / Economics / Re: Our future with renewable energy. on: November 21, 2023, 12:22:59 AM
Renewable source of energy is very exceptional, affordable, and very minimal price to maintain, I think this is what the world needs at this moment,  this is a source of energy that's free from environmental pollution, and very cheap to buy, If the world population can fully develop more equipment that is used to build this energy source, we won't be complaining of lack of energy in some part of the world, I came from a village in Nigeria, we don't have electricity, but something happened 2 years ago, some group of persons came telling my people about solar energy, how they can electrify my village with that means if we allow them to come in, at first we saw it as a dream, but they later built the solar turbine in my place, as am talking to us now, we have uninterrupted electricity supply and we pay little,  I believe our government knows all this, is just that they won't do it because of their selfish reasons, the only visible thing here is the private sector investment.
government around the world always prefer coal for god knows reason maybe they consider coal to be more cheaper thats why they want it but we all know the mining activities as well as the process of generating power causes massive pollution, but then again the renewable sources of energy are still in its premature stage i think it'd be better if someone like elon could somehow innovate and invent better solution for renewable energy thats both easy to mantain, cheap and could generate massive amount of energy because the biggest hurdle with using something like solar panel is that most of the time it doesn't produce that much energy and requires a lot of solar panel to power one big household consistently.
at the end of the day its government that honestly should incentivizes the use of renewable energies.

personally there's no wrong in trying retroactive airdrop in solana for anyone that  interested in getting airdrop, probably in future, eligibility criteria of solana airdrop would be eligible in pyth since its always like that like in arbitrum and other even though they are L2 unlike solana which is L1.
