Well this is what will happen. We in gambling also clearly use emotions there so it will be very different when we play with real or fake money.
Playing with fake money doesn't give any sensation even if we gamble with a lot or a little bet, it's the same because we won't feel happy about it.
Doesnt really give any thrill and gambling addicts doesnt prefer on playing if they do know that they couldnt gain something which is really just a norm for people do mind off.
We could play on demo or fake money or digital funds but it wont really be giving out the sensation we are seeking when we do play actual or real funds thats why
people would really be looking on using real money because the thrill,excitement,fear,enjoyment will really be totally different when it comes to that.
This is the same as just an experiment and actually using a demo account like this in my opinion is not a good thing to stop gambling habits, this will actually have an unfavorable effect because it will continue to be more motivated to play gambling again and again especially when our demo account wins with easy then indirectly there is an emotion that drives gamblers to play with real money.
This may be possible for some people who do have a different mindset and think that gambling with counterfeit money will make them better but for most of the others this is like fueling a fire which in this way will surely increase the desire to gamble. .

 Grin Good point, but in the end you messed it up - studies show that the availability of pornography reduces the number of sex crimes. It turns out that this serves as a relevant replacement.
This will not work in gambling - compare your emotions from, for example, losing (or winning) a million fake dollars and real ones. I think the difference is huge.
Well this is what will happen. We in gambling also clearly use emotions there so it will be very different when we play with real or fake money.

I think Atletico Madrid has many talented/skilled attackers who have a lot of experience. If they didn't really productive in the last season, it may be caused by the wrong strategy or tactics. Simeone needs to choose the right strategy or tactics that can fit with Atletico players, especially for those attackers. And Simeone must improve the players' mentality and motivation, so they can play more aggressively on the field. Morata, Griezmann, Cunha, and other attackers are enough, they don't need new attackers.


In fact, if you look at their performance this season, they have not played well, they have difficulty scoring goals and this is quite bad.
A storm of injuries occurred for them and after the players recovered they struggled to score goals.
Now Suarez is not there and it's a loss for them and have to find a new striker for that. Griezman's performance is also not good enough this season and their reference is only Felix there.

Ronaldo would also be wise not to play for another Italian club than Juventus. I think that many fans and enthusiasts like to be seen as an asset there, but it will be different for many supporters. Of course he has the clubs to pick out. Man City was not an option due to the rivalry with Man United. Maybe try another country, Bayern Munich is not a bad alternative and high level too. Or eventually back to Real Madrid? He has won many prizes with Real Madrid and was very important for the team.
What do you mean? Has he really decided to leave United now? I haven't seen the news that he's gone these few days but there are a lot of rumors that don't mean he's going.
Even if he is going to leave, obviously Serie A is not the place anymore, I think, especially for now the Serie A team that is being linked with Roma. There is no reason for Cristiano to go to Serie A and even if it is just a rumor I would prefer him to be at United next season.

Belgium is no longer one of the favorites, according to the bookmaker. That was different 4 years ago at the world championships. If you compare that team to now, it is almost the same team. Only Hazard was injured. They also failed at the European Championships. If Belgium wants to win something, it has to happen this year. The 1-4 defeat against the Netherlands was for the Nations league. Belgium is a team that can beat anyone but also can lose. I'm sticking to Brazil this time. Or France. I think both countries also have the positive factor.

Nations league dosent matter much because no body is 100% serious in this kind of matches. Belgium was always in the quarters or semifinals but i really see them as one of the favorites due to the amazing team that they have this year for the world cup
True, and indeed this is still one of the things that can be questioned whether their strength is just like that or is it just holding back, especially if we look at the fact that for the Nations League it is not only Belgium who are not playing well but Germany, England and France too. .
It would be great if their notion of holding back and not playing at full strength is true because otherwise they won't be playing well with that kind of readiness in the world cup.

For me, the Pauli thing was very hard, because it was one of the teams that fought the most and was in first place on several occasions, I think that for this season they will be able to go up to the first division, it really is a team that deserves it, great emotions were experienced right to that team, and right now I know they're not going to waste the opportunity.

Pauli's team's performance last season was not bad. They tried but failed. They lost the truck in the last few matches of the season. As a result they were in fifth place at the end of the season. Pauli was 3 points behind third-placed Hamburger. Pauli's players must perform consistently if they want to retain the top spot at the table next season. They can't be in the top two of the table if they can't be consistent. Darmstadt and Nurnburg are not weak opponents.
If you look and compare the actual condition of St Pauli this season is the same as Napoli in Serie A. Their performance at the start was very good and indeed it was proven by them being at the top without even bothering for a few weeks.
But indeed in the middle of the season they began to falter and lose and began to be overtaken by other teams.
It's a shame, but they have to improve from now on so that what happened this season doesn't happen again next season.

The alternative of gambling with fake money will not satisfy a gambling addict, they can only hold for a moment to stop but later if they have a little money they will aim for real gambling. Honestly that doesn't really help at all, because an addict who wants to quit should focus on fighting himself and not fighting fake money bots.
True, because basically this is the same as playing using a demo account Cheesy It can be played but not satisfying. Because it will be a little different in terms of emotions and desires when gambling with fake money and play money.
I don't think this has much of an impact in any way because it's not really the game that makes people addicted to gambling but because of the incredible sensation that can't be said really and only the people who gamble know about the thrill when they gamble.

I feel like Galatasaray may not be able to get Solbakken from now on. Roma is interested with him. He is not that 'very' young, he is 23 years old. So I am sure, on equal terms, he would prefer Rome to Galatasaray for his career to potentially get better. Just before 25, this can be his last chance to rise and shine. Only if Rome find better option, he may be ok to go with Galatasaray. Other than this, no possibility.
The problem is that currently Bodo/Glimt are also still postponing this and hope that Solbakken can continue to stay there.
As for the better level, it is clear that Roma are more prestigious now but there are other things to look at as well, such as whether Solbakken can compete in the bigger leagues? because even though he is a young player, but still when he fails he will only be wasted later.

Clearly. But with the income from the sales, they should be able to strengthen themselves. Especially in the offensive they need at least one more player.  I hope that St. Pauli gets a good team together and that they go into the next season with a lot of spirit.
Plus for this season I still feel they need to strengthen the team and the real consistency.
If you look at the start of the season they were so good even solid at the top but towards the middle of the season their consistency faltered and this made them even more down and failed to fight until the end.
Next season if they still want to compete and want clear promotion, they have to fix this.

It is very difficult to make predictions about the World Cup final. Ronaldo is Portugal's main striker, so we think the team is very strong. But Portugal as a team is not stable. Their defense is weak. Moreover France, Germany, Brazil and Argentina are very strong teams. And so before the start of the World Cup, it is not possible to predict which team will be the champions this time
It is such a hard and difficult thing to win World Cup that even with one amazing player, you will not be able to get it. Not at their age, not when they were younger neither, it is near impossible task. You need to have a lot of great players, look at France for example, they do have Mbappe but they have other great players as well.

So in order to win this cup, you need to have players on all positions and you need to win a lot. Without that, you are not going to be good and you are going to end up getting bad results while one player would be scoring. Becoming a team and having a great generation of players all at the same time matters the most.
This is true but as long as it can be maximized well why not because even though there are some capable players when they are not very consistent this does not go well. Now actually the star player is just an icon in my opinion and his advantages are supported by several other players who will indeed become a good unit.
For example, let's take an example like Senegal, which is indeed iconic, for sure Mane is now but he is not alone because there are several other players even though they are not as big as Mane but their support is great which makes this good.

It is going to be the last day of his contract for Zlatan Ibrahimovic tomorrow. I wonder if he is still indecisive about staying or leaving Milan. Even if he becomes a free agent he can sign for them again of course. I personally don't think that he has some other team in his mind at the moment. He had a wonderful season with the team as they became the champions in the Serie A. He seemed really happy to be part of Milan. Therefore I expect him to decide to stay longer.
Well he signed a contract for 6 months so up to the next transfer window at a low salary since he is injured and needs that time to recover and start training with the club again.
I assume once he is back and fit, he will extend the contract but if he won't be able to perform as he used to be, he will retire or play somewhere else.
I still think it would be better if he retired because even though he is a good player, but his current age is not conducive to a professional career, plus his current injury is quite severe, so he needs to rest for approximately 6-8 months there.
this is not a good thing because indeed during that time he also continues to grow and it would be better if he enjoys time starting from now.

Robert Lewandowski is not a bad player. I was also a little amazed to see his interest to play for Barcelona. But after all, it comes down to only one thing. Barcelona should not pay anything close to 50 million for a player who is aged. If this was the Barcelona of five or six years ago I think this would not have been a problem. But now if this transfer does not work it is going to be a very big problem for Barcelona. Bayern Munich is obviously going to bait Barcelona into spending more money for these players but Barcelona really should not get baited.
Barcelona will do everything possible to land Lewandowski this summer. Barcelona need Lewandowski or a lone striker to start next season, Xavi is even very optimistic that Barcelona can get the Bayern superstar signature in this transfer window. Several attempts have been made in this signing, one of which was Barcelona increasing the budget clause to convince Bayern Munich to accept their proposal. Lewandowski is only under contract for one more season with Bayern Munich, if Bayern do not want to accept Barcelona offer of course Bayern Munich will release Lewandowski for free next season.
When looking at the current progress, it is true that Barcelona can still be confident in getting Xavi's signature, moreover they already seem to have a special closeness where when Lewandowski said he wanted to be at Barcelona for next season this clearly added to his confidence.
On the other hand now they are also almost done with De Jong and will get fresh money from the sale of De Jong so indeed it will be more possible for them to bring Lewandowski from Bayern.
1033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: June 27, 2022, 07:42:09 PM

If xavi was to be the coach to Barcelona beginning of when the started Barcelona would have been dragging position with Real Madrid and they would have been a big threat to Real madrid.  As it stands now next season Barcelona will be the only team in laliga that can confront Real Madrid.
Come on, it's over and there's no if for that because it's already happened now.
basically things will be different maybe when xavi is at the start it will also fail because it doesn't rule out the possibility like that right?
The reason Xavi is so good now is because indeed he is better in terms of performance than Koeman so there are comparisons. But if it weren't for Koeman there would be no comparison and Xavi is still being criticized there.

I don't think that Barcelona should go for Luis Suarez now. He is very old now and he hasn't performed like Benzema in last season also. He scored a really low amount of goals in the La Liga. Barcelona need a solid centre-forward like Lewandowski now. I wouldn't expect Suarez to bring back his old times with Barcelona now. I mean they might go for him only if they fail in bringing Lewandowski or a top striker like him. But rather than going for him they can sign a player for a different position.
Suarez appearance is no longer productive, plus Lewandowski has never been able to be withdrawn by Barcelona to the club due to the detention by Bayern Munich who insisted on trying to maintain his position. Now Barcelona doesn't have much choice if in the end, they have to use the remaining players and not take the initiative of other players. Financial conditions are still not supportive and it is certain to be an option not to spend large amounts of money.
Suarez's performance can't be forced now. His old age and his declining productivity, especially due to an injury last season when he was at Atletico became one of the considerations that must be seen.
Suarez will not be able to compete with a fairly busy schedule and with Barcelona's current style of play. I would prefer if they were still there for Lewandowski but if they still can't then they have to look for someone younger but not for Suarez.

The transfer of Roma is not very realistic in my opinion. Because Roma's goal in the league and champions league may not satisfy Ronaldo. But Ronaldo has a very successful manager. Jorge Mendes can transfer him anywhere. Maybe he can even get him back to Real Madrid. Cheesy Erik Ten Hag needs to work hard to persuade Ronaldo. He is the most important star name of the team. Ronaldo is a great star that nobody can give up.
In fact I'm quite skeptical of Ronaldo to actually move.
Indeed, in this case the speculation circulating is that Ronaldo is not happy with Manchester United at this time but indeed when he says he is not happy does not mean he has to leave actually.
As for Roma, this is clearly not an option either because there are many reports saying that one of the reasons is that he can't play in the Champions League and when he moves to Roma, it's the same as he will still be in the same condition as Manchester United because Roma will not be the same. there. So the chance is quite small.

Manchester united as made it clear that christiano Ronaldo is not for sale, he is going nowhere. Manchester United having Ronaldo for next season with some new players will make better difference. It is very certain that christiano Ronaldo will be in Manchester United till he retires from football.
I still haven't seen the news about this and the always buzzing news about Ronaldoo that he is not happy with Manchester United and always has been but still haven't found anything that says he will stay at Manchester United either in statements or in the news.
This is still not fully going to come true because everything is still uncertain but I have high hopes that he will still be at United.

Chelsea's biggest needs are at least one defender and striker each. de Ligt is definitely a first class defender now and it would make Chelsea solid in defense again. However they lost Rudiger and Christensen both at the same time so I wonder whether there will be one more transfer to this position too. Signing a striker will be very important for them also as Lukaku is almost leaving the team to join Inter now. Havertz and Werner are decent players but their performances haven't been enough.
So far Chelsea have being very quiet in the transfer window, the fans have being complaining about their silence and inactivity in the transfer window and it looks like the new owner of the club is not a "splash the cash" type of boss and the fans are already growing angry with this development. Chelsea was/is not ready for life without their big spender Roman Ibrahomovic. If they could get De Ligt I think the fans will be really happy and he will be a good replacement for Rudiger too.
They have been very passive in transfers this season which makes Fans a bit upset about it.
The change of leadership could be one of the reasons for Chelsea as it is now because there are still many problems that occur in their management structure that impact everything related to Chelsea.
So far 7 players have left Rudiger's club, Jake Clarke-Salter, Christensen, Drinkwater, Charly Musonda Jr, Saul Niguez and Lukaku but still none of them have signed for now and this is clearly a cause for concern for the supporters.

This is something that is quite good now because indeed in the previous season when he was transferred from MU to Inter also in almost the same condition because indeed he was struggling at that time and even he said that his career at MU failed but when he was at Inter he found the touch is back and looks prime here.
It would be a good thing if he did something like this now and I still have a lot of faith in Lukaku especially in Serie A.
Premier League is a tough League. Although, Lukaku is still a good player, but is obvious that he can't succeed in the Premier League. He failed as a player when he was In Manchester United, and also had a terrible performance last season in Chelsea. I think it will basically be a great decision if he gets transferred back to Inter. However, According to report, Chelsea have agreed to loan him out to Inter. Therefore, he will probably be playing in Serie A next season.
As far as I know it has happened and Lukaku is now back at Inter after being loaned on conditional terms by Chelsea for 1 season.
For the EPL, it is quite difficult but there are several factors there that make it difficult for Lukaku to develop because if you see him failing, it is only at big clubs like Chelsea and Manchester United but he has succeeded at Everton.
Maybe he couldn't keep up with the games from big teams like Chelsea and MU so he failed to shine there but in contrast to Everton, which incidentally they are still a team that is in the middle of the board.

One of the reasons Bayern Munich set a high price is because Lewandowski can still show his best game even though he is 33 years old. Bayern Munich still wants to keep Lewandowski even though they have brought in Sadio Mane from Liverpool. Until now, the Lewandowski transfer process has only been a rumor, there has been no agreement between the two parties because the offer submitted by Barcelona has always been rejected by Bayern Munich. If Barcelona wants Lewandowski in their squad, the only way is to meet the price set by Bayern Munich or wait until his contract expires with Bayern.
Former Barcelona board member Toni Freixa Very unsure Barcelona will be able to bring Lewandowski to the camp nou in this summer window. He assessed that Barcelona had problems in terms of finances which made Barcelona move to bring Lewandowski an obstacle. Well, from the latest offer submitted by Barcelona, ​​they have not succeeded in convincing Bayern Munich to release their star. In addition, Bayern hopes that Lewandowski can stay until his contract expires in 2023
Barcelona's financial condition is very worrying at the moment but if you look at it now it seems we can only wait now for confirmation from Bayern because Barcelona does not seem to have given up on negotiations.
But if they complete the transfer of De Jong I think they can bring Lewandowski to Camp Nou next season especially they also have fresh funds from the sale of shares and broadcasting rights even though this costs them the usual income they get.

It was a good period for Barcelona when they actually managed to beat most teams, even including Real Madrid who won the league and the UCL during the same season, so scoring 4 on them was a big win for Barcelona and showed potential for the future. However, we need to remember the fact that it was just one game, Barcelona is a great team and Xavi seems to be a great manager and there is no doubt about any of this. But we can't say that they will be better than Real just based on one game. They will have to work really hard for next season and that will be quite a challange for them for sure.
I'm quite surprised why the big win against Madrid is too exaggerated for them at this time, because I don't think this is a reference even though it does increase their confidence a little but they are now in almost completely new condition including their back line.
We can't really say that the victory in El Clasico gives a high enough prestige to the team that wins there but this is not a guarantee so it doesn't need to be exaggerated because indeed they are also after the victory in El Clasico are still not stable if you see this season ended even in 2 the last game at the end of the season they had 1 draw and 1 loss.
