Empoli is leading by one goal to nil at 32 minutes into the match, just what is expected of them if they have to remain in the Serie A next season. But this depends on the match between Frosinone and Udinese that is still without any goal as at the same time. If the match end this way, they Empoli will succeed in displacing Udinese. If Udinese manages to win Frosinone and Empoli also win their match then, to the shock of many, both will escape relagation and Frosinone will be relegated. Tonight is really a critical night at the Serie A. Anything can happen as it stands now as none of the three teams is sure of surviving the relation.

Empoli was able to defeat Roma, and that was the last thing I thought would not happen today, but surprisingly, it happened. My prediction was that if Roma did not win, their worst performances should draw the match against Empoli, but my prediction went wrong. Empoli was the team that had the fewest chances of still being in Series A because it was having a match with a strong team, which was Roma and Udinese , and Frosinone was ahead of Empoli by one and two points. It really surprised me that Empoli did not relegate honestly. I congratulate Empoli for escaping this season's relegation. It was not easy today, but they did their best and really got the result they deserved.

No matter how weak Manchester United looked this season, they eventually won the trophy, and Arsenal, which was much better, remained nothing.
It is really funny to see some Manchester United fans say something like this towards Arsenal. I don't even think Manchester United fans should come out and start mocking Arsenal in this way after Arsenal defeated them home and away this season. Arsenal is playing in the Champions League next season, but Manchester United just had an opportunity in Europa, so I don't think mocking Arsenal fans in this way will cause them that much pain. 

But at the same time, no one is saying that Arteta could be fired

Why will someone even think that a good coach like Arteta will be fired? I don't think any club on earth will currently like to fire Arteta for his performances this season, finishing the Premier League table in second place and making it to the Champions League quarterfinals with his current squad. Honestly, it is not easy work. Currently in the Premier League, one of the best coaches this season after Guardiola is Arteta. And with this arteta, I believe Arsenal will achieve what they want very soon. Arteta has the potential to win different titles. Let's keep our eyes on next season.

I feel so bother and that is why I decided to ask this question.

We keep talking about gambling addiction and how bad it is to become addicted, does it mean that addicted gamblers lose money all the time? Do you means those guys doesn't win anything at all? Can they not be lucky to win jackpots?

On this board, we are always referring addiction as a terrible thing but does it mean that those addicted gamblers doesn't win money, are they only bounded to losses upon losses?

Winning gambling is fully based on luck. Whether someone is addicted to gambling or not, when luck is on their side, they will surely win. The reason why they always advise us to avoid gambling addiction is that even if you win huge amounts from gambling, you will still surely waste it on gambling again because you are addicted. Someone who is addicted to gambling cannot go a day without gambling, so even the money they need for important things they will always be used for gambling. Since gambling is based on luck, there is no assurance that you will winning. So, why would someone keep wasting their money on it?

Empoli vs As Roma
Udinese vs Frosinone

Emopli are fighting to stay in Serie A, if they can win then they seem to be safe, but with Udinese drawing or losing. Very interesting, of course Roma is not an easy opponent for Empoli. Roma will work hard for 3 points to stay in the Europa League Zone. I'm sure De Rossi will play his best. Although draw As Roma still safe, but not for Empoli. I hope they keep playing without giving each other an advantage.

What is your prediction? Who is safe to stay in Serie A and who will go to Serie B? Empoli, Udinese or Frosinone?

From my observations based on these teams performance recently, I will say that Udinese and Frosinone have a better chance of staying in Serie A because these two teams are ahead of Empoli by one and two points. If Udinese win or draw today's game, I think they should be safe from relegation because it will be very hard for Empoli to beat Roma. I have little confidence that Roma will play poorly enough for Empoli to win.

The lowest performance I am expecting from Roma is a draw. If Roma can draw the game, that means Empoli will only gain one point, which will not be enough unless Udinese lose. With what is going on now, Udinese will hardly lose to Frosinone because their performance seems to be at the same level, and Udinese still have home advantage to make them strong. So, I believe that only luck can make Empoli stay in Serie A this season; otherwise, their chances of staying are small. But let's see what will happen at the end of the match.

Are your parents investing in bitcoin ? Has it impacted your journey with crypto ?

My parents are not fans of online investment, so none of them invest in Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. In fact, from my observations, many old people hardly invest in cryptocurrency unless those who are computer literate, especially in African countries. Old people are hardly involved in online investment; they believe much in physical investments like gold and other stuffs like that. My parents are not fans of cryptocurrency, but I believe they know about it and are aware that I am into bitcoin investment, and they never discourage me from investing in Bitcoin and other projects.

In this life, if we want to be successful, we need to schedule time for everything we do. By scheduling time for tasks and activities, you will see that everything will likely work more smoothly. For example, if someone is into gambling, it needs to be allotted its own specific time, and it should not be done during resting time or others activities times. I don't understand why someone would use their resting time for gambling unless they are addicted to it. Personally, if I tried to gamble during my resting time, I would honestly fall asleep. That is why I never attempt to do anything during my resting period.Allocating time for each activity helps maintain balance and ensures that we are not compromising our rest or other important aspects of our lives. Proper time management is key to achieving success.

It was a shocking moment for Manchester City at the Wembley stadium today as they lost 1-2 at the favor of Manchester United.

Honestly, it is a surprise that Manchester United was able to win this  FA cup trophy against Manchester City today . Many people did not believe that Manchester United would won the game because of their weak performance this season. Manchester city really played well because they were the team that controlled the pitch and they  created a lot of good chances, but they were not lucky to covert it to goals.

But what I have to say about this game is that Manchester United did not play with fear this time around; they played confidence, and that is why even their defensive tactics  counterattack work for them. With this surprise that Manchester United won Manchester City, a lot of people will lose because almost everyone predicted that Manchester City would win. A big congratulations to Manchester United for this achievement.

Hello everyone, I have been here for a few weeks/months now but I'm yet to receive "merit" so I'm just worried, please can someone tell me what I will need to do or how long I will need to be here for before I get merit and other rewards?

Merits are not just given based on the weeks or months that members have sent in the forum, but based on their quality posts. Once a member posts valuable information to the forum, their posts will receive merits from different members of the forum, so if you want your account to be receiving merit, you need to improve and start posting interesting information to the forum, and from that, you will see that merits will start flowing into your account. So the secret that behind an account should always be receiving merit is through quality posts, so someone's valuable contribution is what can make someone be able to rank up his or her account.

But, as we know Manchester City is a team that can score a lot goals, so leading 2 goals is still not yet secure especially Manchester United doesn't have good defenses.

If the first half closed with Manchester United leading by 1 goal, maybe Manchester City could still catch up in the second half, but because Manchester United leads by 2 goals, I think it will be very difficult for Manchester City to catch up. Honestly, I didn't follow the match from the start but the results in the first half surprised me, even more surprised after looking at the statistics, Manchester United really made this derby a chaotic derby for Manchester City.


I agreed with you that it will be very difficult for Manchester City to overcome the two-goal.Manchester United will undoubtedly employ a very cautious and strategic approach to ensure they defend their goals until the final whistle. Even if Manchester City manages to score a goal, it is unlikely they will score more than one. Despite Manchester City controlling the match and dominating possession, they have not been able to create as many clear chances as Manchester United.

Manchester United's defensive strategy, which relies heavily on counterattacks, seems to be working in their favor. With the formidable presence of Martinez anchoring their defense, I am confident that they can maintain their advantage. This tactical approach, blending disciplined defense with opportunistic counterattacks, appears to be the most effective strategy for Manchester United to achieve their aim and secure a victory in this match.

If you look at Manchester City's current performance, it is true, the possibility of Guardiola's men winning the FA Cup final will be very big.
Yes, with Manchester City’s performances compared to Manchester United’s, it is clear that Manchester City is the favorite team to win the upcoming FA Cup final match. Manchester United may try, but I don't think they will have the opportunity to win this season’s FA Cup. Manchester United is not in good form currently, but maybe they can improve before the final. From my experience watching Manchester City’s matches against Manchester United this season, it seems that Manchester United played  against Manchester City fear. I think these was causes loses home and away  these season. If Manchester United can play Manchester City with confidence they might be lucky enough to win the FA Cup.

I am sure that in the FA Cup final this time there will be a surprise that Manchester United can show. The reason is, the FA Cup final is the only competition that is a big opportunity for Ten Hag's team to win a trophy this season.
In the world of football, anything can happen, and we have seen different cases like that before where a weak defeat a great a great team in great form, but this is final. It is always hard for surprises to happen in finals, so. I am not expecting any surprise things from Manchester United, so with Manchester United's form, I can't really say they can win this match based on their performance, but let's see what happens. 
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: May 24, 2024, 08:25:23 PM
Because if, for example, Barcelona sells several of its players next season, in my opinion that is also too risky. Because, the risk is that Barcelona will not necessarily get better players than the current players. So in my opinion, utilizing existing players is a way out of the problems Barcelona is currently experiencing.
There are several players whose performance may decline due to age and I think those who are old enough can be sold and bought new players, at least young players who have more ability and have the potential to be able to play in the main squad at Barcelona, after all the competition is very tight in Next season, if we continue to play experienced players, it won't be enough because stamina and performance are necessary, especially since league matches are also quite time-consuming, having young players will be good enough to maintain consistency.

But I don't know whether Barcelona has enough money to buy new players and sell their players, even though we know they are in a financial crisis, I am not a Barcelona supporter but what I see is that Barcelona should have lots of young players to fill the main squad so they can compete in the season. in the future and Xavi can rotate each of his players so that he can continue to maintain consistency next season, at least winning the Laliga title is already a good achievement, let alone the UCL which is certainly not an easy competition to overcome.

Actually, and I also think this is the best solution for Barcelona, they should just sell their players who they know are not doing well for them again, are old enough, and can participate with their full strength in the full season. You have a point. It always takes time when the league starts, and players who are not in good shape or are old may seriously deform. If there is no other player to replace, then there will be a problem, so to me, the best thing is to get new players with good performances. Sometimes experience does not only matter; strength also needs to be involved in football. 

If selling their weak players and signing new players can solve their problems, it will be a good idea to sell them, but the truth is that if it sells some of these players, do they have money to sign a Batter once? But I believe that Barcelona still has batter players currently, but even some teams that performed this season still have a good squad, but all these players need good management and coaching. Not saying Xavi is not doing well, but I believe that there are some coaches better than him out there that if they have this Barcelona squad, they will use it to win the trophy. Signing more players does not guarantee team performance without a proper coach. in fact, what kind of players does Barcelona need in their squad now?

Yes. That's right, Dortmund cannot be underestimated because Dortmund's performance is in very good condition in the Champions League
Seriously, the Champions League final is going to be an interesting and tough one because for a club to get to the final, they shouldn’t be underestimated. The match is not just going to be an easy one for the two clubs. I know Real Madrid might end up winning the match because their performance is kind of better than Dortmund's, but we know Dortmund to have a strong defense, it’s not really going to be an easy one, and if Real Madrid end up underestimating Dortmund, which I am sure they won’t do, they might end up losing because Dortmund is a very dangerous club.

Any Champions League final is always a tough and interesting match, so even this upcoming final is not going to be an easy match. I don't really know why people are underestimating Dortmund towards Real Madrid. Dortmund is not bad team, and that is the reason why they have the opportunity to reach the final. I know from the statistics and records that Real Madrid is in great form compared to Dortmund, and they may have a good chance of winning the match, if have to follow full records form, but the truth is that a final is not something we can easily predict.this reminds me of season when Chelsea won their last Champions League. Many people predicted that Manchester City would win because Manchester City was in better form than Chelsea that season, but at the end of the game, Chelsea won. So, even in this coming final, I can't underestimate Dortmund.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: May 24, 2024, 07:41:21 PM
I don’t think Leverkusen will not have this kind of performance this next season, Leverkusen can not do unbeaten performances next season in the Bundesliga league, and it will be very difficult because next season is going to be tough. After all, many teams are ready for them, most especially Bayern Munich ready for Leverkusen next season so that they can revenge what Leverkusen did to them this season, Leverkusen will be performing in the champion league next season and will also make them focus in the champion league next than any other league, Xabi Alonso will have to advise his players to perform well in every league that they will play if not they won’t have a good season next season because there will be a lot of pressure on them.

It is possible for Bayer Leverkusen to maintain their good form, but for repeating what they actually did this season, I have some confidence that they can't repeat their unbeaten record; in fact,  it just happened at Lucky despite their good form. Even if a team is in great form, playing unbeaten throughout the season and making it to the league is not easy work. Xabi Alonso is a great coach, and he has really shown how good he is this season, so even next season we are expecting great work from him, and I believe it will still continue to carry the Leverkusen team on top.
Quote
About Bayern Munich, Kompany is going to be Bayern Munich's coach next season, I think the Kompany got fired from the team he was coaching before because of his poor performance during his coaching and now Bayern Munich wants him to be their new coach, Kompany is still a young coach who can help the team but I’m still thinking is he going to make Bayern Munich win trophies next season? Kompany needs to have a good plan on how to use Bayern Munich players if not he will end up like Thomas Tuchel and Bayern Munich will send him and way without not thinking twice.
Yes, I saw the news, but honestly, I thought it was a rumor. but as it is true, I don't know what Bayern Munich sees in the kompany, and they want to sign him as coach. If the kompany cannot cope in Premier League competition, what is the assurance that he will succeed in coaching Bayern Munich well? But let's see what will really happen next season if he becomes Bayern Munich coach. The kompany is not that bad, but I am just thinking he is not a well-experienced coach. He has just started, and the record is not that good this season.he have only coach burley.

I'm not actually happy seeing how Arsenal going trophyless for last season and this season too but we have to face the reality that City is unstoppable at the moment and Arsenal aren't ready for the challenge. I commend Arsenal's effort for their fighting spirit throughout the season but giving away points when they were mostly needed is very annoying. It's not just about Man city winning the league with few points, it's Arsenal fault giving them opportunity to get closer to them after a significant gap between them due to their inconsistency at some point.

With Arsenal's great form over the past the two seasons now, they were not supposed to end this season without a trophy it is disappointing. Honestly,  they should have even tried to confuse other competitions too, like the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup. If Arsenal had focused on this other competition, they should not have ended the season without a trophy. Since last season, Arsenal has been focusing only on premier league, they have not been given other competitions more power, just like Manchester City, and that is why Manchester City will hardly end the season without no trophy. Now that Manchester City have won the Premier League, they are still playing the FA Cup final against Manchester United. but despite Arsenal focusing on the Premier League trophy over the last two seasons, they always mess up the opportunity they always have.seriously arsenal need to take more correction with all this mistakes that always happened.

Why did you decide to start trading one day?

What will be the reason behind trading if not to make money from it? I am trading because I want to make more money. I learned how to trade and started trading because I saw it as another source of income. Despite it not being a stable source of income, it is very hard to continue making profits from trading, but with good knowledge of trading, you can be making a reasonable amount of money, so not everyone is trading because of money.

Why do it,because there is long-term investing,mining or the possibility to do other business,including offline?

I involve myself in trading because I see it as another good way of making money, the truth is that everyone can't rely on one way of making money, so someone set of people have to deal with long-term investments or offline businesses or others of making money. It is all of us will enjoy doing the same things as human beings, as everyone may have something specific they love doing.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you been profiting from memecoins? on: May 23, 2024, 08:58:48 PM
I think the main game starts once you understand the strategy and plan. If you really want to make some profit with meme coins, find them on Coingecko and research. Now I'm not advising you all to do the same as me but I'm just sharing what I do when investing in meme coins.

It is not really easy to make profits from memecions despite even doing research about them. I believe that making profits from memecions is just about luck. I am not a fan of memecions, but I have close friends who are memecions fans and how they are losing money on them. That is what makes me not trust memecions.So when someone is lucky, someone will hardly make profits from this memecoins project. 99% of them do fail or end in scam. Someone can invest 100 dollars in memecions now, but just between a day, they may find $2 dollars left on their wallet. I will not advise anyone to invest in memecions, but if you want to invest just a very small amount of money, even if you lose, you will not feel the pain of losing it.
17  Economy / Economics / Re: How to improve your condition? on: May 23, 2024, 04:58:30 PM

Well, every other person seems to be saying that it is your fault that you are poor, improve your condition yourself, but no one tells you how to improve your condition when you are living in a country where there are places where you have to pay tax on even breathing. How to improve? How to make money? How to get rich in a rising inflation?
 

I believe the set of people who are saying it is someone's fault for being poor are saying it as just a statement of encouragement, not for people to just sit down without doing anything. But the truth is that not everyone has to be rich in life, but with hard work, someone can avoid poverty in this world. If you truly want to be rich, I don't think you should be expecting someone to tell you how to improve yourself. You have to think in different ways about how your life can improve, and that will make you different from other people. 
 
I belong to a country where jobs are non-existent, offline work is not something that can earn more money with less work or even with more work, it has become very difficult to earn a living with dignity. Online jobs are not allowed in our country, especially trading, so my question is, what job can a person do and improve his condition?

Seriously, getting job nowadays is not really easy everywhere, but no matter how difficult it is, if someone can discover you and find talent, many of us find it difficult to secure a job because we never find our talent. And the thing to improve yourself again is to find out what other people in your country are doing and be rich. I believe not everyone will be rich in your country, and get one thing again: one source of income cannot make you rich. You may be thinking that those rich people have different sources of income. So poor is not something we can tackle once or in a short period of time, especially when someone is from a poor family. 

I have heard from everyone that it is not your fault to be born poor. Still, it is your fault to die poor, so my question is after so many restrictions, how can you survive without any opportunities or become rich and how can it be your fault if you are talented and well-educated and you don't have people to bribe or recommend?

With hard work and dedication, someone can overcome that poverty, so I will just advise you to focus on any opportunity you have currently and always continue to find other opportunities that have made you rich. Well, you are well talented and well educated. I believe there are more chances of you being rich because that is what makes you different from others, and people will always find you unique, so if you have these two things mentioned, just focus and never give up.

I am begginer with crypto , is there any possibility to earn something?

I believe before anyone comes into the cryptocurrency industry, he or she may have something it may be targeting. So what are you targeting? The cryptocurrency industry is not a place where you can just start earning without doing anything, but the best way you can earn more money in the cryptocurrency industry is through investing in good coins like Bitcoin or by trading, but before doing this, you must have knowledge of cryptocurrency properly and also learn more about the cryptocurrency industry to avoid scams.

As for trading, it is a very hard thing to do, so I will not advise you to focus on trading as a newbie. Where are there ways that some people also earn money by doing airdrops or doing lift mining on their smart phones, but many of them always lead to scams because you may min or do airdrops, but at the end they may need to launch the coins you min.

Arsenal shouldn't be sad, you need to lose big before you can win. Look at Liverpool, they lost so many times to City, before they got one, and I think same will happen with Arsenal. Next season I believe that they are going to be good enough to win.

City players will not be able to provide for a fifth one, they will not care that much and while they are out celebrating and all, Arsenal will have a chance to win. They are just too good to not win a cup this way, they have done so much to get here and I know that eventually they will get one. In order for them to not get one, they will need to like fire Arteta and sell many players and just blow it all up, if they do not do that and keep the run going, they will eventually win.

It should be a very sad moment for Arsenal for not winning this season Premier League trophy again after having a great opportunity to win the Premier League. If Arsenal did have lose that match against Aston Villa, they should have been crowned Premier League winners. Assuming they even drew the game against Aston Villa, it could have been a different great story for them now.
 
Let's just see what happens next season, but I can't really say that Arsenal will win it next season. I still believe that Manchester City have better chances of winning it again than Arsenal. Manchester City have more quality players than Arsenal. So Manchester City winning it for the fifth term is not a big deal because they have everything more than any other teams in the Premier League. If Arsenal want to compete with Manchester City for the Premier League title the Premier League title next season, they need to see more quality players, like good strikers, and have options for many key players.

What a match!! Wow! Atalanta become the first Italian team to win the Europa league competition and the first to dent the record of Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen in their 52 game unbeaten run and to say the fans are excited is an understatement. This Atalanta side have never won any title since they were promoted into the Serie A and what a way to establish themselves.
 At this rate, even of they finish fifth in their league, they have the assurance that they have a slot in the champions league next season.
It's not a fun thing to lose in the final after going strong throughout the season but Bayer Leverkusen will console themselves that they were beaten by an equally formidable side like Atalanta.
Many people will surprised that Atalanta won this match because almost everyone had expected Bayern Leverkusen to be the team that would lift the Europa trophy, given how strong the team is, Leverkusen had been in such impressive form, remaining unbeaten both in their domestic league and throughout this Europa competition, leading everyone to believe that they would surely win today's match.

In a surprising turn of events, Atalanta emerged victorious, not only winning the game but doing so in a dominant by not allowing Bayern Leverkusen to score even a single goal, which is truly astonishing and something nobody had anticipated, especially considering the final score was a decisive 3-0 in favor of Atalanta. I am very happy for Atalanta for winning this Europa trophy, they really put in a tremendous effort and they genuinely deserve this victory.  many people who bet on the match will likely lose today because their predictions probably may went wrong.
