It is important to understand that Sommer to Inter can only happen if Onana moves to United. Right now things are still in motion with Onana->United so it is difficult to say things for certain. Neuer return can really affect Sommer's chances so he needs to move. He can still move to other clubs, there should be some club monitoring this situation and will probably approach Bayern for Sommer.

Quote
Bayern Munich are reportedly targeting young Valencia goalkeeper, Giorgi Mamardashvili.

i am surprised by Tuchel, what else is he adding to the stock of the Bayern goalkeeper, Bayern's main problem is not the goalkeeper but the striker, they haven't found a replacement for Lewandowski yet.  Neuer's recovery is a breath of fresh air for Bayern and it is certain that he will again become Bayern's main goalkeeper.

Bayern last season actually appeared disappointing, they almost slipped from Dortmund in the race for the Bundesliga trophy if Dortmund did not fail to get 3 points in the last match.  when other big teams are very aggressively hunting for good strikers, i wonder why bayern doesn't do that too!!

Regarding Real Madrid, I would wait and see how it goes in the next weeks or days because we know there is a chance for their coach Carlo Ancelotti to leave this team and if he leaves finding an alternative coach will not be easy for Real Madrid at all. On the other hand, they are still waiting for Mbappe and trying to hire this player while if hire Mbappe the chance for Real Madrid will increase, and betting on this team for the next season can be safe.
ancelotti will definitely leave madrid for various reasons (old age or moving to another team), so madrid must be able to find the latest replacement for ancelotti, news circulating that arbeloa is one of the candidates to train madrid in the future, currently he is coaching a youth club real madrid so it's a great opportunity to train the madrid senior team.

about mbappe, he is a very talented player, madrid will be very tough if he succeeds in getting his signature, besides that if mbappe continues to be at PSG, it will be very difficult for him to get the UCL trophy.

Yes, Arsenal are currently very active in the transfer market and they are also buying players as needed. The presence of Kai Havertz and also Declan Rice is a very extraordinary combination for Arsenal to compete in the EPL league. I think Arteta has learned from last season's experience, he not only wants to prioritize the main players but he also prepares the equivalent reserve players and of course prepares the mentality of the players as well. Because Arsenal's mistakes have always been inconsistent in the last 10 matches. And Arteta realizes that this is especially true every April until the end of the season, Arsenal's appearance has always been shaky in recent years.

It must be admitted, Arsenal if the problem of player transfers is indeed very smart. Fully supported by management, the direction of the policy is right and the investment is clear. The effect is that the level of the game always increases every season.
to be honest, arsenal's decision to buy declan rice at a fantastic price was very reckless imo, at that price arsenal should be able to get several other players to strengthen arsenal's front and midfield instead of having to spend big money to buy declan rice, so it's not surprising that some observers football criticized the decisions taken by arsenal, not even a few said that under arteta's leadership, arsenal was very wasteful in spending on players but the results were not good.

let's see what arsenal can do this season, will they repeat their performance like last season (appeared strong at the start of the season but weakened at the end of the season)

Inter's performance was quite bad during the early till middle of season but everything changed once lautaro has got its rythm with lukaku. The combination between those players have been successfully bringing intermilan to the final of UCL but it was failed in getting UCL trophy against manchester city. Even intermilan's president was not expecting it to happen with intermilan. The result from last season was quite good for intermilan. Inter was still able going to home with 1 trophy from copa italia.

Inter can call the last season a success. They were able to make an amazing result with a team that wasnt expected to do anything that season. They reached the champions league spots in Serie A and runner ups in ucl as well. I think they need to get new players if they want to attack the serie A next season. For me Lukaku plays the best in Inter but for me he isnt like he was before.
i really salute Inter Milan's final result last season (even though they really played unsatisfactorily at the start of the season) but in the middle of the season they showed extraordinary things, they were even able to advance to the UCL final well (even though they had to lose by a narrow score to man city in UCL final)

news about the milan transfer market is also one of the most targeted by the public, reportedly several inter players are being sold, the money from the sale will be used as capital to buy other new players. Lukaku actually looks good with Inter but in some important matches he often makes mistakes, that's what makes a lot of speculation about his future at Inter circulating bad.

  • Has being an active participant in the gambling section helped you develop more effective strategies for winning bets?
  • Has it aided you in overcoming gambling addiction (if you were addicted) or developing healthier gambling habits?
  • Have you noticed an overall improvement in your gambling experiences?

Let's delve into this topic because beyond simply increasing post counts, there must be genuine benefits to actively participating in these discussions.
great topic

based on my personal experience, when i make a post in the gambling section it will also be a reminder for myself, for example in one of the topics i made about gambling addiction, i read a lot of members' posts on that topic and i learned a lot from there, i really anticipate well so as not to become a gambling addict.

my gambling activities are also getting healthier but for the win rate i think it has no effect, everything is still very normal because whether i win or lose when gambling is all the result of the decision i choose.

trading signals are indeed good (make your time efficient without you having to have good skills in trading) so that until now there are many people who feel comfortable using them but the bad thing that will happen to traders if they continue to use trading signals is dependency.

if you do trading but continue to rely on signals then you will forever not have the ability to make decisions, you will only be stuck with the directions from these trading signals besides that trading signals still have big enough mistakes so try to learn the basics of trading slowly and consistently is highly recommended rather than just relying on decisions from trading signals.

this forum is truly extraordinary, even though the initial purpose of establishing this forum was only to discuss bitcoin but over time, many other discussions have sprung up, starting from discussing altcoins > economics > politics > trading > even mining, all of which are presented in full at this forum.

i admit that knowing this forum and being able to become a member here is a blessing for me, there is really a lot of knowledge about anything that i can get here, just a suggestion for beginners, don't be lazy to read, there are lots of great posts here, this forum is a public school.

In my opinion, Andre Onana might not be suitable for a value as high as 60 million euros. The quality is good, but it's a rather insane value for a goalkeeper who is 27 years old. Manchester United have to be very realistic about their high bids, but I think there are plenty of other young goalkeepers they should consider.
There are many young players available, but Manchester United is searching for a quality goalkeeper who can perform and confidently step in for De Gea.
Onana, the goalkeeper, is still young and active at the age of 27. He won't soon lose the determination to be a good goalkeeper, in my opinion.
If Manchester United can afford the 60 million euros Inter Milan is asking for, they should try to sign him. He merits the cost.
ten hag will not take risks by trying goalkeepers who have not been tested on the field and as runner up in the champions league last season onana's performance with inter milan has been tested.

Seeing Onana's performance at Inter Milan last season, in fact, he has good potential for long-term investment for Manchester United, he is still young and the value of his transfer will continue to increase, but I also see that what Inter Milan is doing is very unethical (reportedly Inter did get andre onana for free) because 60 million euros is quite high, if Manchester United stays at 45 million euros then I really believe Inter Milan will release Andere Onana to Manchester United because reportedly Inter Milan really needs money.

Hi all, I have been on this forum for some months now and I noticed this rule by signature campaign managers when applying for a signature campaign. In fact the rule is one of the prerequisite for getting paid. One of the rules is that posts made in boards where the signature is not visible will not be counted. Another rule are boards where if a participants makes a posts it will not the counted. I am going to ask these questions out of curiosity. First question, why are there boards where the signatures cannot be displayed or aren't visible on the forum? Second question is why do campaign managers exclude certain boards for posting and others where posting is allowed?
you don't understand what the campaign manager means, they don't forbid you to make posts in that section or thread signature invisible, they just won't count it, this is their requirement, if you go to WO thread then you will find all members those who make posts there won't see what signature they use.

campaign managers make rules like this only to make the campaigns they handle can be right on target and gambling site owners who trust their campaigns on the bounty manager can get maximum results (if you paid campaign participants but did not get maximum results, would you be happy?)
951  Economy / Economics / Re: Fast Transportation Makes Economic Turnover Faster on: July 05, 2023, 04:09:42 PM
When considering the faster transportation, we should also check out the quality of the medium.
The high number of other transportation vehicles on the highway may have been one reason for the jetpack development, but we should consider also where such a medium can be used. 

In a suburban setting with lots of phone cables or poles, trees, and congested buildings, a jetpack might be a good idea for fast transportation, but it could be the worst case of irresponsibility if an accident occurs.
When we however remove such a suburban setting,  the jetpack could be the best thing that may have come to deliver great economic turnover for those businesses who rely on swift deliveries as service.
jetpack might sound pretty crazy but how about a flying car,

Quote
The first flying car, 'Model A,' approved by the FAA and it's 100% electric
[1] https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2023/06/30/first-flying-car-approved-by-faa-available-for-preorder/70372117007/

currently the development of air transportation is continuing, maybe at this time humans have only reached the lowest level for flying vehicle matters but what about in the future, that really cannot be stopped.  i am sure that in the next 15-20 years, we will see massive traffic jams in our sky, flying vehicles (jetpacks, flying trains or flying cars) will decorate every sky in our respective countries (sounds crazy but this is just a prediction lol).
952  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why Not Just Buy BTC? on: July 03, 2023, 07:35:01 PM
I've seen over one dozen websites believing that BTC will skyrocket in the upcoming years.
The platform I use is Coinbase.
I'm thinking of just buying BTC-USD and just leaving it be.
Any thoughts on this strategy?
the strategy that you are using is a long-term investment, have you set at what price you will immediately sell the bitcoin that you hold, this is very important so that you really make a profit (not just buy, then leave it in your wallet in a long time)

but if you plan to become a long-term trader, you must also determine at what price you will stop-loss and at what price you will take-profit.  find a strategy that makes you comfortable, and don't be easily motivated by other traders even though the strategy doesn't match your habits.

It's unfortunate to hear about your friend's situation with his wife discovering his gambling habits. Sometimes, such revelations can lead to difficult conversations and tough decisions in relationships.
the most important thing in any relationship (whether it's family, friendship, and partner) is openness and honesty with each other, but a husband and wife must be very open because such a relationship is very intimate.  the habit of gambling is not bad as long as it doesn't make it difficult for one another because having a family is not easy, don't just because of the gambling habit you have, the family that was previously intact has fallen apart.  keep watching and discussing everything with your partner when the gambling activity he has started to interfere with social life in the household.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I think topics/discussion on gambling addictions is too much on: July 03, 2023, 05:15:47 PM
This is gambling discussion sub board of the gambling board of bitcointalk forum,  and the main goals of the gambling board is where casinos introduced the platforms via creation of ANN threads and also the discussion sub board where gamblers discuss many other topics as relate to gambling.

But recently I have read a lot of topics as regards to gambling (addictions) and it negative effects on individuals and how we have warn against it,  but at this time I am beginning to think that we are focusing too much on gambling addiction rather than employing ways to avoid addiction but at the same time gamble and have fun to the fullest.

The topics and discussion about gambling addiction is becoming too much and too often to the point that most newbie may likely get scared away from gambling which will not be ok for the casino revenue generation so at this point I am force to ear my view of this topic of gambling addictions, becoming too much in this board.

Or what do you think?
i don't really see the topic of gambling addiction very much (i haven't bothered so far), but the topic of gambling addiction is not in just 1 topic.  other than that some people have other goals in creating topics about gambling addiction (such as to meet the weekly quota of signature campaigns they participate in)

but you can ignore topics that you feel are not important to discuss (such as topic discussions that you feel have been discussed repeatedly or topics that will never end) that's your right.

According to the media Manchester United wants Hojlund from Atalanta and they did a bid for 35m €.

There is no way Atalanta will accept the offer, according to previous rumors they were asking 60m for him.


He only has 20 years, they will need someone crazy and with a lot of money if they really want that bid.
apart from man utd, reportedly juventus also really wants hojlund, even juventus claims that holjund is much better than vlahovic (because of the goals and assists scored by Holjund throughout last season with Atalanta)

as a talented young player (he is very good for long term investment), actually the price offered by atalanta is not expensive imo, that's why i think man utd and juventus are too stupid if they don't buy holjund at that price (maybe the price in the next transfer market will go up because of his pretty good performance)
956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: July 02, 2023, 04:41:54 PM
I came across an article How Old Do You Have to Be to Gamble in USA?. In this article, i saw that the minimum age to gamble is between 18 to 21 years. I wonder if the online casino do follow this minimum age for gambling.

Yes, the gambling sites have our age data through the KYC documents. Do they ever restrict anyone who is underage to not to gamble?
Also, if we find any site allowing minors to gamble, can legal action be taken against them?
snip
one of the reasons why some gambling sites require KYC is to prevent underage gamblers from using their parents' money to gamble but nowadays children are very smart, they can falsify KYC data, they will only pay some parents to do KYC for their account.

the minimum age in gambling is almost difficult to implement effectively, there are many loopholes to get away from it, and one other important thing, many gambling sites also do not require KYC for their users.  It is necessary to intervene from all parties to be able to prevent under the age of understanding gambling as early as possible.
957  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which one of this is important most? on: July 02, 2023, 04:01:55 PM
I have been thing of this thread for a while now and I have checked a little if there's any but I haven't seen any of it , so a beginning to ask if the post is not quality enough to be posted on this forum or if my research wasn't well searched.
The illustration of this topic is kinda common these days on the forum and the new comers (brawn new and newbies) I don't know if other top ranked users make such mistakes, some of these users post things thinking they can be merited but forgotten about there reputation on the forum, some of these users don't know that their reputation is more important than there ranked on the forum, so it keeps me wondering about merits and reputation which one of this is more important in the forum?.
"reputation" (1) is much more important then "merit" (2)

it is useless if you have abundant merit but in the end your reputation is destroyed because of something unpleasant that you did in this forum (plagiarism, threats, slander, fraud), reputation on this forum is like a foundation on a building, without a good reputation the building (account) will be destroyed and it will not be easy to return (the reputation), although merit is needed to rank up in this forum, don't chase it too much because you might will accidentally break your reputation.
958  Economy / Economics / Re: Bad impact when You carry out Online or Offline Loans on an ongoing basis on: July 01, 2023, 09:02:18 PM
i have experience that has helped me a lot about an online loan, a few years ago i was really helped with an online loan (helping the small business that I started until now), at that time i had no other place to get fresh money quickly, luckily someone my friend recommended an online loan platform even though the interest was quite high at that time, i made an application for the loan and slowly i paid in installments every month.

from the story that i told above, i am "neutral" towards all forms of loans, sometimes there is one time when you really need it and have no other way but to do the loan, but it is important to remember that to be wiser in managing your finances, don't When we experience financial difficulties, we just regret that we never studied financial management.
959  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Crypto another form of gambling? on: July 01, 2023, 07:24:35 PM
I was kinda surprised when I read the news from Financial Times that the cross-section of the UK's MPs that seems to see it as needless to regulate cryptocurrency suggested that it should be viewed as "a form of gambling" and be regulated as such.

Without relying on my own understanding of "gambling," I quickly used the help of the Oxford Dictionary through Google, and it states;

1. Play games of chance for money; bet.
2. Take risky action in the hope of a desired result.

The second one seems to fit crypto best, so it's clear they know what they are saying.

Now, do you agree that crypto should be seen as a form of gambling? And if this eventually comes through, what should we expect as the constraints it might still bring to the crypto space?
when you hear the phrase "bitcoin is gambling" then show them about satoshi's vision and mission of creating bitcoin based on the whitepaper.  

It is important to know that what is known as gambling is playing with luck (usually sports betting and slots), while bitcoin is a currency as well as an asset that you can use for anything (including for gambling, paying for something, trading or invest)

to be able to understand what bitcoin is, requires a conscious mind, don't give rejection from the start because you won't be able to understand it properly.

You as a gambler..
1. What do you make of this?, is sex truly a sport and is it supposed to be carried out openly?
2. If casinos pick this up and make provisions available to users to bet on this supposed European sex Championship, would you bet?

Lets have some serious and healthy discussion here..
what happened to sweden, are there no other sports that they can develop, how can they make sex one of the sports they compete in?

the reason in my opinion why sex cannot or is not suitable to be used as a sport is because sex occurs between a pair of humans, there is an emotional bond in it (you will get quick ejaculation when you do it with the one you love), how do we know someone's resilience when they do it with random people?  this is ridiculous..  i would never ever spend my money betting on this kind of absurd nonsense.
