Barcelona are entering a new age by Xavi's arrival. They finally have made their move and sent Koeman away from the team. It is hard to say whether this was the right thing to do or not. But I'm sure of one thing that their choice about the new coach is quite right. Xavi knows this team very well as he played for them for so many years. He is a legend in the end. And it's time to have more experience here as a coach. I'm looking forward to watching their matches from now on. I expect them to get better slowly every week.

Juventus should be very well-prepared for their next Serie A match. It is going to be against Lazio and it is an away match too. And I know how strong Lazio are playing their home matches this season. They beat Inter and Roma both in their home stadium so far. Why wouldn't we see another one against Juventus, right? When we consider Juventus' recent form in the league also, it seems very probable that Lazio won't lose here and they can even win. And I think each team will score a goal at least.

Tonight, LA Clippers are going to be playing a home game against Miami Heat. These teams both have got similar results so far. Actually Miami Heat started perfectly to the season but they lost three of their last four games. And Clippers are completely the opposite now. They started badly but now they have a 5-win streak which is superb. Miami Heat couldn't win against them in their last two head-to-head games here. Clippers have an advantage as they are in a solid shape. So I'm favoring them in this.

There were really huge results tonight in many matches. Those results were like this:

Germany 9 - 0 Liechtenstein
Malta 1 - 7 Croatia
Armenia 0 - 5 North Macedonia
Russia 6 - 0 Cyprus

Maybe these results aren't very surprising as there was a big strength gap between the two teams in each match. Actually, I can't say the same for the Armenia - N. Macedonia match. Because they had the same points before this match (12 points). But somehow, we got a result like this. Germany, Russia and Croatia just enjoyed themselves today.

According to some news sources, Real Madrid are planning to sign Antonio Rüdiger for free next summer as his contract is going to be expiring at the end of next June. And it is said that they will offer £200,000-a-week to him which is a really big amount of salary. His weekly salary at Chelsea is only £100,000 now. I guess that Rüdiger would lean towards a big deal like this. He is performing really awesome at Chelsea now and it looks like Tuchel will have a hard time keeping him here.

We have left a big Manchester derby behind. And just as I expected, Manchester City dominated the game and got a comfortable win. Actually, Manchester United gave some hope to me after destroying Tottenham by 3-0 away. They tried a new game plan and it worked. But they didn't do good against Atalanta and hardly stole one point thanks to Ronaldo. Manchester United didn't even play properly today as they got only one shot on target. They were struggling in offense a lot. Manchester City started giving the ball more to their opponent in the second half but even it didn't change anything for Manchester United.

Not really 3-5-2.    It was 3-4-1-2:



But it was still a good game plan choice I believe. Juventus were doing the same also. I mean that they were putting Morata right alongside Ronaldo and they played with two forwards like that all the time. Solskjaer tried the same and he must be very happy after this 3-0 victory. He still has a chance to make things better and we will see if he will succeed in the coming matches.

Liverpool showed one more time how strong they are now by finishing Manchester United in Old Trafford by 5-0. Ending the first half 4-0 behind must be very embarrassing for Manchester United players and Solskjaer. In the second half, they had nothing to do and just hoped for the match to end as soon as possible. De Gea was the best performing player at the team and he was angry with the rest of the players a lot for not even trying. Ronaldo scored a nice goal but it was cancelled by VAR due to an offside. Manchester United really need a change now.

Ajax put on an extraordinary show against PSV yesterday and erased their opponent from the field by 5-0. Actually both of these teams had a good form in the Eredivisie until this match. But PSV had so many players missing which affected their performance a lot. Ajax were in a very solid shape as they defeated Dortmund by 4-0 and they were very eager to win here too. And they did it by their own way which is tearing their opponent apart. 

The odds for the huge Manchester United v Liverpool match are like this now:

Manchester United : 2.99
Draw : 3.48
Liverpool : 2.21

It is really hard to guess which side can win. Or we don't even know whether a side will manage to win too. Because these teams are both strong ones no matter how their recent performances are. Both of them are capable of beating each other. I wonder how good Cristiano Ronaldo will perform in this match. He can be very effective in helping his team reach the victory as we saw it in the Atalanta match. And Mason Greenwood is a big threat for Liverpool too for example. And I hope to watch a great performance by Salah also. When he plays strong, his team are also doing the same.

Sevilla are showing a really satisfying performance against Levante now. They are already 3-1 ahead at halftime. As Levante are one of the weakest teams of the season, this score doesn't surprise me at all. Sevilla are giving a much better impression on us this season. They are a candidate for the title race considering their current effort. And if they win this match, they will be the temporary leader in the table also.

The all time high price for BNB is $690. Even this proves that BNB is capable of doing much more than this. For now, it can't do much by itself and it seems completely dependent on the changes in Bitcoin price. But BNB's time will also come like Ethereum's has come. Binance is the biggest exchange in the market and I believe in it to do its best for BNB to develop more in time.

There is one week left for the Leverkusen v Bayern Munich match. This is going to be one of the most delighful matches of the season I hope. We watched a superb match between Leverkusen and Dortmund in this stadium this season which ended by 3-4. Bayern Munich are even more capable team than Dortmund as for scoring goals. Consequently, I expect a high scoring match and Bayern Munich seem like the close side to a victory.

Yeah, they have always fought for the EL positions so far. Maybe this year can be different than the others but we don't know if they will be able to keep up a good form. They managed to qualify for the CL last season and they can do this again. I hope that they don't only send En-Nesyri to another club. They will need to fill his place with a forward who is as good as him at least.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10075103/Newcastle-enter-race-Tottenham-Juventus-sign-Paris-Saint-Germain-striker-Mauro-Icardi.html

It says that Newcastle are going to be after PSG striker Mauro Icardi to sign. According to the source, Juventus and Tottenham are also interested in bringing him to the team. But Newcastle have much more to offer to him. The most important thing is that they may have to give him a promise of building a very strong team to be able to sign him. But Newcastle will make it happen easily as they have an incredible amount of money from now on.

After a management change, I was expecting to see a better performance from Turkey. They were really good sometimes during the match but didn't play very good in general. They scored an early goal and had the psychological advantage too. But they made a huge mistake after the goal. They started letting Norway come to them. Even without Haaland and Sörloth, Norway still got one point by equalizing the score. Now, Turkey are in a problematic condition. Because if they and Norway win until the last group matches, they will hope Norway to lose to Netherlands and they will have to win their match to take the second place and qualify for the World Cup in that case.

The biggest threat to Bitcoin is not most countries' banning it actually. We saw that when China banned cryptocurrencies not a long time ago. The market has lost so many investors but still there is no problem at all. The FUD didn't work this time and the market is even on a very positive run now. The biggest threat would be a big decrease in the rate of demand for Bitcoin. The less the demand, the weaker the coin is.

England and Poland both got wins by the same score which is 5-0. England destroyed Andorra and Poland did the same against San Marino. I was actually waiting for England to have a less goal difference against their opponent but it was an easy match for them at the same time. These matches were like practice matches for these big teams.

Sevilla are one of the great teams this season. They are at the 4th place being 3 points behind the leader and they have a missing match also which is against Barcelona. They got an unexpected loss against Granada last week. They will want to make up for the loss and Celta Vigo are another easy team for them to beat. Real Madrid demolished Celta Vigo and Sevilla can get a decent win here also.

The downtrend you mentioned didn't last long and Bitcoin price has started climbing very quickly even so the FUD that China tried to spread in the market. Now, we are talking about how much the price can go up in the coming days or even months maybe. The biggest thing that people are waiting for is of course a bull market. We have missed to see one a lot. And I think that we will see one in this year.
