Real Madrid's greatness does not lie in Benzema, even though last season Benzema was always a mainstay player at Real Madrid and this season the Real Madrid coach is very aware that the Real Madrid team must be able to appear strong even without Benzema. Now this has been proven through the five matches at the start of this season where Real Madrid was able to win all the matches, although not in an easy way because Real Madrid's struggle in winning the five matches at the start of this season was very visible.
I agree that Real Madrid's strength doesn't lie in one player alone, but a player like Benzema adds to their sharpness up front. If we look at it now, most of their goals come not from strikers, but rather their midfielders. On the one hand that's good for them because they can create goals from many players, on the other hand it's a weakness because after all they have to have a player who can make a difference, especially if that player is a striker. Of course it is an advantage if they have such a player on the front line. It can be seen from Napoli who have Osimhen, also Manchester City who have a Haaland. That just means that they need to get another player, which they didn't to be fair. The logic of "we do not rely on just a single player" means that Benzema could leave and they could get someone else and still be fine. Look at City, they lost Ilkay, who was the captain for the team for a while, and they got Kovacic instead and they are still doing fine. Because one player leaving doesn't ruin the club as long as you replace that player, even if not with a world star, someone who can do something similar. Whereas Real Madrid didn't do that, they used to have Benzema, and now they have... Joselu? I mean that doesn't make sense, I am not saying go get Mbappe right now, but they needed a pure striker that could help. |

Tottenham has began the season on a very good note, with excellent performance the are showing that they are ready to take on any opponent regardless their status or track record in the league, although there were fears that their performance may not be excellent as a few good players left the club during the transfer period, but Tottenham seem to have clear all doubt about their performance as the have performed so well most recently since the season began.
The coach on the other had is doing a good job as his tactics are in check and they really own their games causing their opponents to sit up. Tottenham is giving out a notion that this season, no team should undermine their ability as they are ready to take on any team. Arsenal is another good team who have performed excellently since the season wining Manchester united with a victory that was epic.
The victory against Tottenham yesterday tho deserving but arsenal had a tough time wining the game. Arsenal I must say had a good contender so it was expected they will not win at ease. The style of play arsenal used yesterday was not quite impressive but at the end of every game what matters most is victory which arsenal did got. Arsenal and Tottenham are both good teams for the season and other teams should watch out for then both in subsequent meetings
Tottenham may have done fine so far, which is a shocking result really because nobody expected them to do better without Kane, so it was definitely a shocker but at the same time I feel like it is going to be fine, and I believe that we need to end up with a situation that has to be a bit different and I believe we got that now. I hope that it gets to a point where we could end up with a result that is better for the team that will do better on the long run. Like if Tottenham will finish higher than Arsenal at the end of the season then I hope they win, if Arsenal will finish higher then I hope they win it. Losing these type of early games that may ruin your chances in the long term feels horrible at the end of the season. |

If the BFG tokens are not feeding it with new things, when the price of Bitcoin rises , Investors will not look favorably on this token as a safe haven, then they will miss the boom that Bitcoin makes at that time , that is. It is something that would be very pitiful, because if it does not rise at that time, the truth is , from the Experience I have , it will hardly be Raised , I do not see that they can do it in this order of ideas, things can happen like this , but if the The Same Team does not do it nor do They put it in a Centralized Exchange , because there is Nothing to do.
I think that first they should do things right Here in the Forum , I don't really Know what the problem Was , the truth is I Haven't understood it well , and I don't know why they now have that attitude with the members of the forum, because at one point this casino It managed to put itself in a very high place, it was head to head with the casinos that are always in the top5 , and from one moment to the next Everything Collapsed, I don't Understand why they are doing things Well.
Marketing for a token to increase its value should not be relied upon the creators, that is centralization and what we ran away from to invest into bitcoin. If our point is to make the betfury team to make bfg go up, then why don't I just get dollars and tell the USA government to make dollar value more? I mean we can all agree that USA government is much bigger than betfury team, and it is not trusted by some people I agree but globally more accepted and trusted as a currency too. Because, I want decentralization and with Betfury team being forced to do marketing to increase the price, that is centralization and I do not want that. We as the investors should promote it and hope that it goes up in price as well. |

It's true that the adoption will become much slower than how it is right now because as an investor one would obviously expect the market to go up and every investor tends to do some research before they make their investments and if they see not enough movements in the market, they will probably think that they should invest their money into something else so that they can get some profits in a few years which isn't possible with cryptocurrencies if there is no bull run at all.
It also doesn't sound possible because of how the market actually works. The prices of cryptocurrencies go up and down based on their demand and supply and when more people get interested in buying an asset, those who are already in possession of it will surely ask for a higher price for selling it.
Also, the more people we have, the harder it will get to get new customers as well. I mean if you have everyone involved already, it would be hard to convince the last people, they waited that long, they may have a solid reason that we can't change. So, the long time we spend with this adoption rate, the harder it gets to convince others and we should be careful about it. I personally do agree that it is going to have some trouble here and there, but we could definitely have some changes. I believe that we are going to have some issues on the long run, and for that we need to figure out a way other than "if you buy bitcoin, it will go up in the future" type of convincing, we need something bigger than that to grow. |

Inter definitely ended up with an unexpected result without a doubt. I mean it's quite obvious that we are talking about something that would be impossible to know if the game would end this way or not and they did. I wouldn't be able to bet on it like this and they have done something that is definitely a big deal.
This isn't just an ordinary win for them, getting a 1-0 win is 3 points same as a 5-1 win but when you win by a large margin you tell the other team that you are better. I wagered on Milan to win, my bad and I was wrong and I get that I made a mistake there, but even the ones who wagered on Inter to win probably didn't know that they would win by this large margin ,it was totally unexpected to see this.

I think it's "too big", as in there are too many people who gamble that they shouldn't. When thinking about gambling we talk about things that we see here, but there are games on phones that people keep putting money into and try to gamble and end up losing at all times.
I do not think that it's going good right now, there are too many people gambling, people who do not have money as well, it's really turning into a lot worse situation and should be helped out. We need some sort of way to prevent this many people gambling because it hurts societies too badly, too many people end up not really doing a good job and they end up getting poorer and poorer because of it as well. Or we can do the liberal thing and let people do what they want.

Just because the owner is willing to spend money, that doesn't mean that the club will get better, if you misspend that money then you are going to stay a terrible team. Doesn't mean that you can do wonders without spending neither, Pep spent hundreds of millions of dollars to be this good, but at least he did the right moves while spending it.
So, you can't be like United and Glazers family and just not spend anything you do not have to, they basically spend the bare minimum to keep them competing, but you can't be like Chelsea and Todd which would be spending money way more than you should, on players that do not even deserve that much money, and expect good results neither. The only way to get better is to spend right amount of money to the right players.

When your team wins by 6-1, I am sure that Neymar wasn't really the reason lol. That's the thing about the numbers and stats here, that was the talk for Ronaldo as well. They score or assist against low level teams, the bottom teams at the Saudi league is probably worse than most big clubs in europs have youth clubs that are better. This means that these players end up scoring a lot and assisting a lot and just making their goalscoring or assist records look ballooned up a bit.
This game result is a proof of that, it was an easy game and I do not think that they had anything else to do in this regard. Hopefully they will do better and they can do much better in the future and have fun, that's the important part.

It's obvious that Singapore is a tough track that takes a lot of effort to be good, even the slightest mistakes cost too much time here, it is not like some of the other tracks like Barcelona for example or France where you could make a small mistake and it will not cost you too much and you can recover, at Singapore if you make even one bad turn, which could happen even for f1 drivers, that could lead to 1 second loss, just one bad turn, think about how much difference each lap will be for every driver.
I know Max has been winning for a long time now, what is it, 10 in a row? I think it is quite obvious that he is going to be amazing and there will not be anything that will change any time here neither because he is one of the best consistent ones.

This is going to be an important day for Italian football, at least for the league because it looks like we are going to end up with a day that has very important games. You do not get to see 4 good teams all playing each other on the same day that often, I am guessing that people who are right at this days results, will be doing fine on the long run as well.
I think it should be important to make it work, and it will be a great profit if we are right in both games. Obviously there are some other games too but usually they are not that big and we are not going to get anything different from them, it is not going to matter all that much. Hopefully, we are going to be right, not all of us can be, but at least I hope majority is.

Having immigration illegally exists because legally it is not possible for some people. You can't just accept 100k people all at once, you accept 10k of them which is a nice number, then what does the other 90k who can't get accepted do? I am not talking about not accepting criminals, that exists too, you look at the application and background search shows that he was a criminal so you reject him and that person illegally immigrates anyway, that happens and that's bad.
But, if we are talking about just because of numbers? The others who would have been accepted if they were in the 10k but just stayed out because of numbers, would immigrate as well. This is why USA will always have this issue without a doubt for a long time.

It has been nearly two weeks since the last game, some teams could be a little bit rusty and it happens, which is fine. I believe that there will be some upsets as well this week, some unexpected results, but it's fine and I do not think that we will care all that much, next week players will get back into shape and do a lot better.
National team games disrupted the flow for a while, they should be fine going forward. I believe that we need to end up having some sort of situation where they will do fine, and it should be considered decent enough. I get that it's going to be a bit of a hard thing to bet on something like this but we could definitely make it happen and it shouldn't really be a trouble in the end as well.

I am not entirely sure if Ferrari car is good enough to be on the podium if you ask me. If you look at the pace of the car, the pace is not that great on a race long one, sure it may not be that bad on Saturdays but having one go all out lap versus having a whole race is a different thing.
We are talking about a situation where race pace matters and Ferrari doesn't have a car like that, at least so far we haven't seen anything that indicates they do have a car that is fast enough to be on the podium. Other teams went better and worse all season long, ups and downs, but Ferrari has proven that not so much, maybe a few games here and there, lately not too bad, but they need to do a lot better if they want to win some points.

Honestly, nothing major happens to me when I lose. Sometimes I gamble for a very long time between my wins and it could happen, I am fine with that. Because I managed to realize long time ago that it is not really about making a profit when gambling but more about how much fun I am having and if I am having fun that should be enough and I would not need to do anything else. I get that life is not that simple and we are not doing something that would be big enough without a loss.
So, I end up accepting my faith when I lose, and if I lose too much then I stop gambling and just do not gamble. I limit my losses anyway so I can't lose more than that amount and that means I am going to have a limit to my loss anyway.

As I see it, the BTC price returning above $26k doesn't mean anything yet. If the BTC price had risen above $30k, it would have been considered a bullish signal.
As for selling the assets of FTX, they will sell it gradually, not all at once. However, even if there will be panic in the market because of this, it can be seen as a positive thing. For example, if the price of FUN tokens falls to 2020 values because of this, I think that many users of freebitcoin will be happy to buy these tokens at such a low price to hold them in the long term.
Yes, the price of bitcoin has returned above $26k, but this doesn't seem to be over yet, so we still have to be alert and watch out if tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the price of bitcoin will fall again considering that we are almost approaching the weekend. At the end of the week, there will usually be a correction, whether it will be a correction again or whether it will remain stable at the current price until next week. But if there is a correction at the end of the week that forces the price to fall further below $26k, it is a good opportunity to buy bitcoin again. If the FUN token falls further down, investors will buy this token again because it is a discount price that they can enjoy. After that, they can keep it for the long term while enjoying their investment in freebitco. I believe that we are going to end up with some issues on the long run, it just doesn't make sense to let it be as it is, so I hope that people can see that we are doing fine for the time being, I get that it's not that simple but it can be done and we need to focus on it. I know that life is hard and things are looking like they could crash at any moment but usually that's not the case. I hope that we could grow bigger and the price goes higher, that would be lovely. FUN tokens is probably third or fourth coin that I have the most, after bitcoin and ethereum, it's probably bnb, and fourth could be FUN tokens. So if the market recovers or starts to recover, that would be awesome and we could end up being a lot better. |

That's mostly because Neymar is not a stable player and he has unstable performance usually. Also, he was injured for months in PSG and this definitely affected this palyer we can't expect more from Neymar. Also if you are comparing Neymar with other players like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho Brazil, you are wrong because players were not alone in their team, they had other superstar players to help them and that's how they achieved many titles. In the other hand, Brazil is not the first power in football anymore. Why can't we compare Neymar with Ronaldo or Ronaldinho? I don't think that the situation has changed a lot over the years. Even now, Brazil is a well balanced team and they are not overdependent on Neymar. They have high quality players like Richarlison, Gabriel Jesus, Raphael Veiga and Vinícius Júnior. And I would say that they are still among the top-3 teams in the world (although I don't know whether they are no.1). We can say that gap between Brazil and other teams have narrowed, but even now they are one of the best teams in the world. Given this, the fact that they have performed poorly in the FIFA World Cup for two consecutive terms is baffling. I can easily say that Neymar could be compared to Ronaldo, but not Ronaldinho. The difference is that Ronaldo played at a great time of Brazil, but he was consistently injured too, but won some stuff with his team as well. I believe that Neymar is a great player too, but he is constantly injured as well. Ronaldo could have been one of the best players in history if he didn't get injured this much, and Neymar could have been the best of his time as well if he didn't get this many injuries. Ronaldinho is a different type of player, he was a great player but he was also a showman as well, he just enjoyed playing football, it was fun for him, it wasn't being the best that he cared about, it was being loved and enjoyed. |

It is going to be bullish long term at all times, there is no scenario where will it not be bullish. We need to realize that it is going to take some time and we need to end up with something that will change things over course of many years. I believe that we are going to end up with something that would make differences on the long term.
I believe that we are going to end up with something that will change things one way or another, and when that happens I believe that we are going to end up with a good result. I hope that it gets to a point where we end up with a result that is a bit more profitable, and for that to happen I am guessing that it is going to be a bit more time required for us to reach a new high.

LOL.. this was discussed lot many times in the past, and we know that it is not going to change. Obviously Democrats would prefer electing the president through the popular vote rather than electoral college. But the supporters of the current system claims that it makes sure that smaller states such as Arizona and Nevada are not taken lightly during the electoral process. But there is a catch though. There is an argument that a lot of Republicans refrain from voting in deep blue states such as California and New York. Under the current system, their votes are not being valued. But if the system changes, then more of them will take part in the elections and the GOP candidate will get more support than expected.
Then why does republicans go against it? If they believe that they are going to be able to get a lot more votes, they should want this change, correct? It's obvious that the popular vote is vastly different, Biden for example got 7 million more votes, and he barely won in some states, could have been a second term for Trump if there was like 50k more votes in right places give or take. So, you think that if popular vote was the result, there would be 7 more million votes casted for Trump? SEVEN million more? From places like New York and California? That is like a hilarious joke, it would be impossible. The reason why republican senators, congressman and even supreme court which is filled with republicans, do not want popular vote because there would not be a 1% chance republican candidate will ever win. |

You do not have to be a right wing nutjob to send illegal immigrants away, left can do that too, the point is to make sure that corruption is less in one party more than the other. What people do not understand is that we are given two choices by the media, left or right. This happens in most nations as well, not just USA, not just EU neither, you are not actually electing someone who is right or left, you are electing "someone".
This means that you need to check that person. So let's assume that Biden became Republican today, and Trump became Democrat, which was the case by the way, Trump was a registered democrat back in the day. Would that make your vote change? Would you vote Trump just because he became democrat? I think people should vote based on the person, and see who is less corrupt, not the part, not the ideas. A great leftist is better than a terrible right wing, a great right wing person is much better than a corrupt leftist.

Barcelona are planning a move for Manchester City's 23-year-old Norway striker Erling Haaland in 2025, when he could be available for £150m. ( 90 Min) Manchester City and Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva, 29, negotiated a £50m release clause in his recent new contract. He is considering joining Barcelona next summer. ( Mundo Deportivo - in Spanish) Former Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann is still under contract at the club, but they will not ask for a fee if the German Football Association wants him as national team manager. ( Sky Sports Germany) West Ham boss David Moyes has not ruled out signing 30-year-old England midfielder Jesse Lingard, who is a free agent and is training with the club. ( Talksport) Chelsea's 24-year-old English defender Trevoh Chalobah does not expect to play a prominent role when he returns from a hamstring injury this month. ( Standard) Juventus can terminate 30-year-old France midfielder Paul Pogba's contract if he is banned for doping. ( Gazzetta dello Sport - in Italian) Burnley and Crystal Palace are monitoring Colchester's 19-year-old English forward Bradley Ihionvien. ( Sun) Paris St-Germain have drawn up a shortlist of five Real Madrid players they will target in response to the Spanish club's pursuit of 24-year-old France striker Kylian Mbappe. ( Sport - in Spanish) That feels like that could be a bit out of their budget. I am not saying that it will be impossible for them to get him, they could show some glimpses of success and do a bit well and maybe if they are good enough until then, he could be convinced that he is the missing piece and with him they will do better. But for that to happen they need to first fix this roster situation, sure in 2025 Lewandowski could probably be too old to play this well, and that is why haaland would be a perfect fit but just lack of Lewandowskis salary is not enough, they need to pay some of that debt back in order to keep it going, otherwise it is not going to be possible. This is one of the worlds most famous clubs, they should find a way to increase the income. |
