Ever since Liverpool qualified for the Europa League, we have been thinking that Liverpool will win the Europa League this season. We have no reason not to think so because Liverpool is one of the most reliable and strong teams in the Europa League. Liverpool may regret their performance this season as they could have done much better had they been in the Champions League this season. Liverpool have been in great form this season, as they failed to participate in the Champions League this season, their full focus will be on the Europa League so that they can win the Europa League title for the first time.
All teams are targeting qualifying and playing in the Champions League but for now the Europa League is not too bad. Europe's second caste competition in the last few seasons has also started to show enthusiasm because the big teams are also starting to target becoming third place winners in the elite caste. This season Liverpool are strong candidates to become champions, materially their players are very strong but the challenges are also very tough.
Juergen Klopp is certainly aware of the challenges he will face, but he will try very hard so that he can win this trophy. This season Klopp is starting to rediscover the Reds' best playing form after stumbling last season. I believe Liverpool has a very big chance of becoming champions again.

The Europa League was very competitive in previous seasons as well. Europe's renowned teams were playing in the Europa League. And the Europa League looks set to be very competitive this season as well. There are now teams like  West Ham, Ajax, Brighton, Liverpool and Leverkusen.

Liverpool team can be considered as the strongest  and favorite team in Europa League so far. But we don't know if Klopp will be too keen on the Europa League title. Because Liverpool's main goal will probably be to perform well in the Premier League. And Klopp's main focus will be on Premier League matches. And so it is not possible to predict for sure how Liverpool will play in the Europa League.

I do not see any possibility of defeat of New Zealand. They are going to win the match easily. They collected 187 runs after losing only 1 wicket in 25 overs. Will young was the first to return to the dressing room. But COnway and Rachin Ravindra are playing brilliantly. Conway remained unbeaten on 98 and Ravindra on 87. New Zealand need only 96 runs in 25 overs.
The first match of the World Cup I thought would be very competitive. Also I thought England team as favorite. Because England played very well in the last series against New Zealand and won the series. It was totally unexpected that England would perform so poorly today.
Yes exactly they played really well in the series but here in ICC World Cup's first match England is looking weak and New Zealand is now much stronger as compare to the England team. According to the current situation New Zealand made 209 runs in 28 overs and they need 74 runs in 21 overs. Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway partnership is going well. Devon Conway already made his century and Rachin Ravindra is very close to it. And I am sure thay he will also complete the 100 runs soon.

I am fed up with England's batting. We do not expect such erratic batting from such experienced players of England. I thought the team would give a target of more than 320 today. And this pitch should have given a target of over 300 to win. But England's players cannot bat responsibly. Joe Root scored 77, Buttler 43 and Bairstwo 33. Apart from Root, no other player can stay at the crease for long. On the other hand, two New Zealand players Conway and Ravindra both scored centuries. They are averaging more than 7 runs per over. New Zealand need only 56 runs. England may be defeated by 9 wickets today.

I think one of the reasons PSG lost was their match strategy . PSG youngster luis enriue wanted to control  the match with possession of the ball. They have placed more emphasis on ball possession than attacking more. I would say this match strategy only applies to La Liga. It is very difficult to win in the Champions League or Premier League with such tactics. Because Premier League teams usually play very fast. They attack and counterattack quickly. And I think that's why PSG lost. Luis Enrique's team is not doing well. At the same time his match strategy is also weak. I don't see any future for PSG in this Champions League.
Newcastle were on a roll from the very beginning of the match, and a quick goal also added strength to their further assault. PSG’s mistake was to allow Newcastle to play so close to their goal, then there was a controversial moment that was considered for a long time by VAR, there was also a handball, which was obvious, but the goal was counted and this is another moment that ruined the game for PSG.

Newcastle were stronger and they proved it in the second half, PSG did not know how to act, they rarely face teams that press them so actively, and besides, the effect of the stadium was simply stunning, Newcastle fans miss the Champions League.

I think PSG didn't take the Newcastle team seriously. They considered the Newcastle team weak. And the PSG coach has not properly done his homework on newcastle . As a result  psg team has performed so badly.  Newcastle team is performing steadily. But I find it hard to accept the fact  that they beat a team like PSG 4-1. PSG's defense is full of  talented players. However  newcastle players scored four goals. This has been due to PSG's tactical weakness. However, Luis Enrique must identify his team's weaknesses very quickly, and take appropriate steps to correct those weaknesses. The performance of the team in Ligue 1 is not good. If this continues, PSG will not be able to do well in the Champions League and will not be able to win the Ligue 1 title.

England was off to an excellent start, but then New Zealand came back to the game strongly with 4 quick wickets. England were 64/1, but now they are struggling at 125/4. And we know how the pitch at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad behaves. Anything less than 300 is not going to be enough for the team that is batting first. Joe Root and Jos Buttler are at the crease right now, and they are trying to rebuild the innings. If they can get Poms to 200 by the 35th over without losing any further wickets, then there is a good chance that England may end up with a good total.
I think England didn't took them seriously and they bat like against a normal team but NewZeland is now well improved team with a chance of stronger contender of semifinalist and as a result England lose much more important wickets and look like they will be stuck below 300 will be not a difficult target to chase if they took a better start, as we have seen during warm-up matches all those teams won who chase so may be NewZeland does same but not predicting any team victory will be meaningless because anything can happens.
Any way buttler and root are on a create with a mindset to took the game deep and build some significant partnership which will really realse Pressure from them and they will easily scored a decent target. Now they scored around 100 partnership and still makeing it bigger let see who took such starting important game
New Zealand is bowling really well, it is not that England did not take them seriously. The bowlers have been a to break the partnership whenever their captain needed them. England batters are struggling because the New Zealand team has been good on the field and is bowling a perfect line. The projected score is still above 290 which can trouble the New Zealand batters. England does have a good pace and spin attack. If they are facing the heat now then the opponent would face the same heat. Sam Curran is on the pitch, he can hit the ball out of the ground. They only need a couple of good overs to come back into the game.

I do not see any possibility of defeat of New Zealand. They are going to win the match easily. They collected 187 runs after losing only 1 wicket in 25 overs. Will young was the first to return to the dressing room. But COnway and Rachin Ravindra are playing brilliantly. Conway remained unbeaten on 98 and Ravindra on 87. New Zealand need only 96 runs in 25 overs.
The first match of the World Cup I thought would be very competitive. Also I thought England team as favorite. Because England played very well in the last series against New Zealand and won the series. It was totally unexpected that England would perform so poorly today.

Interesting how everyone here is discussing the PSG game last night... But to be honest, I'm not surprised that Newcastle were able to destroy them... PSG have a lot of problems now, while Newcastle are playing their first season in the Champions League and have already managed to make a good result... Seen jokes about Newcastle being the new Man City this season... Grin

I think one of the reasons PSG lost was their match strategy nothing els.  Their youngster Luis Enriue wanted to control the match with possession of the ball.  They have placed more emphasis on ball possession than attacking more.  I would say this match strategy only applies to La Liga, why? You do not have to be a coach to understand that, it is very difficult to win in the Champions League or Premier League with such tactics.

Because you know Premier League teams usually play very fast right? they attack and counterattack quickly. And I think that's why they lost. Luis Enrique's team is not doing well. At the same time his match strategy is also weak. I don't see any future for PSG in this Champions League.

The first match of the world cup will get underway in around 1 hour from now, and it will be played between the defending champions (England) and the runners-up (New Zealand). I am one of those guys who want New Zealand to win, purely because England stole the world cup back in 2019. The memories are still fresh and today it is going to be payback time for Ben Stokes and company. And fortunately this match is taking place in Ahmedabad. No rains are predicted for the next 7 days, so we don't need to worry about rain interruptions.
Yes, today is a big day as the world cup will start today at Ahmedabad, a match between England and New Zealand. It is yet to see if this would be a repeat of last world cup final between the two teams and can New Zealand win this match and take revenge of their defeat in the last world cup. Also it was very heart broken for the New Zealand fans as they reached the WC  finals for the first time and they lost.
On the other hand, England will be looking to start with a win and continue the happy memories of the Last world cup, where they won the cricket world cup for the very first time in history. Can they win this time too and make it a consecutive world cup title. A lot of actions to be seen in the next couple of months.

Both New Zealand and England teams are strong. New Zealand players have performed well in the warm up matches. And they also played well in the ODI series against Bangladesh. However, the New Zealand team lost 3-1 in the ODI series against England. But New Zealand has an excellent squad. If the performance of the batsmen is not unstable then the team has a chance to win.

New Zealand won the toss and decided to field. Narendra Modi Stadium pitch is not bowling friendly. Batsmen get enough advantage to score runs. So I would say the result of today's match will depend on the performance of the batsmen. England batsmen are in very good rhythm. If the top order is good, England will collect more than 300 today.

Atletico Madrid vs Feyenoord

The match between Atletico Madrid  vs Feyenoord is taking place now . Although Atletico madrid is more experienced and stronger than Feyenoord,  but Feyenoord is in good form. They won  the first match against celtic. The team won the home match  2-0.  Feyenoord also won against the mighty ajax in the Eredivisie. And I would say that the confidence of the Feyenoord players is very high now that they have won these two matches. And they will perform well against Atletico in today's match. I guess the match could be a draw.
Just 7 minutes into the match, Atletico Madrid's defender Hermoso made a mistake. The Feyenoord team got a lead of 1 goal. Since the first goal of the match was scored by Feyenoord, hope to get back on track in this match will be very difficult against Atletico Madrid. The match turned out to be competitive.
Atletico Madrid 2-2 in first half and they were losing twice in this match and i havent seen from them in a long time that they have to chase the lead twice. Hopefully they win the match in the end so that my parlay can still be alive. Hopefully they push a lot harder in second half.

The first half ended 2-2. But in the first 3 minutes of the second half,  Morata's goal gave Atletico madrid the  lead again.  Atletico madrid do not want to drop points in their home matches.  The team is fighting hard to win . On the other hand  Feyenoord's performance surprised  me a lot. This team is performing well . Especially their match strategy is very good. And they can attack a lot. So far  atletico madrid have made a total of  5 shots, while feyenoord's players have  made 10. Atletico madrid's defenders  are doing well enough . If Atletico Madrid's defense plays poorly, they are likely to lose points in this match.

Bayern Munich surprised me in the Copenhagen game a lot. I was expecting a comfortable game for them honestly. But after seeing Copenhagen scoring first I really doubted Bayern Munich about the win. They finally scored the winning goal in the last ten minutes of the game but they must also be not satisfied with their performance.

Just watch everything till full time. Bayern is also a club that was having capability to do cameback against its opponent. This club is pretty much the same like the bundesliga version of real madrid.
Bayern was just scoring two goals and leading the group right now while copenhagen was standing above manchester united with 1 point. The next match will be even tougher copenhagen but im optimistic if copenhagen will able to beat manchester united.
Maybe I'm just the opposite because even though Bayern Munich can make a comeback, their opponent is a mediocre team in the Champions League competition and they should be able to win more easily without having to make a comeback in the last minute to win. I am actually very happy with Copenhagen's performance who managed to suppress Bayern Munich in this match even though in the end they lost. I don't think Bayern Munich can be compared to Real Madrid because Real Madrid always makes comebacks with opponents who are quite strong or even comparable. So it's really different, especially as we know that when Bayern Munich plays against Real Madrid, they are always victims of comebacks in UCL competitions, so the difference between these two teams is quite clear.

Copenhagen's performance in this match really surprised me. They performed wel l. I don't think copenhagen will play that well against a big and  experienced team like bayern munich. Copenhagen players were very confident in this  match. This is why they have been able to do well against strong teams like munich. Although copenhagen  did not win this match, I am very satisfied with their performance.

Neither team could score in the first half. Copenhagen's midfielder Lerager scored the first goal of the second half. But even then, Bayern Munich stepped up their attack. And in the end, Munich won the match 2-1. I'm sure Bayern Munich will qualify for the knockout rounds as group champions.

In the end, Pakistan lost the match by 14 runs.  Pakistan lost but I am satisfied with their performance in this match. The team has proved that they have the ability to bat against big target s. But pakistan's bowlers are not able to do well.  Pakistan is not doing well even with such a strong pace attack . Pakistan's pace attack is ineffective against strong teams.  Also I will say pakistan's two openers are still out of form imam ul haque and fakhar zaman are out of form.  If these two players return to form,  pakistan's batting line-up will be stronger. The overall condition of Pakistan is still unstable. It is difficult to predict whether this team will do well in the World Cup.
Absolutely right paksitan done a good job as everyone expect  that they Gona chocked while chasing such a big Target but they changed entire expectors mind as a batting side and done something special especially after entry of baber Azam where they build a long pressure releasing partnership with iftikhar chahu and believe me such partnership put paksitan on track otherwise it will be 150+ margin defeat. While bowling side is little bit off colour after absence of naseem and the most important things is that pitch has not support/help for bolwer it behave like highway roads so here you have to just pitch good area to put batter in trouble which bowler can't.
Some journalists give prediction that even paksitan may be Gona lose against Netherlands which I believe is meaningless statement but anyway I back Pakistan teams and believe at least they will be semifinalist or may be finalist.

One of my favorite team is Pakistan.  But looking at their performances recently I don't think they will be able to qualify for the semi-finals. Their performance is poor especially the performance of the batsmen is very erratic. Most of the pitches we have seen in warm up matches are batting friendly. We will probably see a similar pitch in the World Cup. And on such a pitch it is much more difficult to win if batsman's performance is erratic. The top order must perform well if they want to win big targets. But Pakistan's top order players are not in good form. It is also unlikely that Pakistan will qualify for the semi-finals depending on Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan's performance alone.

-snip-
No excuses are acceptable. They need to perform better and secure a victory. Erik ten Hag has the club's support, as they see him as the right person for the current and future plans. It's important not to change coaches during tough periods but support them to bounce back. That's how they build a strong, long-term team. However, the team's balance isn't right yet, but I'm sure it will improve. And then, these lad definitely turn into a real threat against any team.
I don't expect much from Ten Hag for a short time even though this is his second season as Manchester United coach. Ten Hag should get good support instead of voicing his dismissal, that's what he should get instead of mocking the results of his team's performance on the field.

After all, Manchester United have not won the Premier League title for so long even though they have managed to qualify for the Champions League in 3 of the last 4 seasons, meaning it is still very difficult for us to hope that Ten Hag is the first coach to win it since the 2012-2013 season. Not a single coach has succeeded in making Manchester United win the Premier League title in the last 10 years, in fact I don't expect Ten Hag to be able to do it easily.

Earlier in the previous season we saw the performance of Manchester United. The group was completely aimless. And their performance was very poor. Manchester United's performance began to improve after Ten hag became the coach of the team. And at the end of the season we saw this team at the fourth place in the points table. And since Manchester United's performance improved after Ten hag became the coach, we had high expectations from Ten Hag this season. Manchester United management also provided Ten Hag with enough funds to strengthen the squad by adding players of Ten Hag's choice to the squad. But since the beginning of this season, Manchester United's performance has been very poor. Last season we considered Ten Hag a success, but this season it looks like Ten Hag is a failure. I don't know what decision Manchester United will take. But if this performance continues, I think United management should look for a new coach.
1072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 04, 2023, 03:19:11 PM
Cagilari are not the strongest team in Serie A. Even, currently they are at bottom in standings, and I think Roma can win surely and steal three points with or without Lukaku. But if Mourinho plays Lukaku then that will be a good for him, but also if he can score a lot in that match. Lukaku still has sharpness in scoring, there is no doubt but sometimes his performance is unstable.
Lukaku is a good striker but since he was bought by Chelsea, his performance has not been stable, especially when facing Genoa last matchday, he barely managed to create a chance to score a goal.  anyway, Chelsea are reportedly ready to let him go to Roma if Roma are interested in him even at a very cheap price, on matchday 8 Roma will face Cagliari, in the last 7 matches Cagliari's performance has been very bad, they have only been able to draw 2 and lose 5, Roma also has a chance of winning, it's very possible that Lukaku will make a goal in that match.
Not because of playing at Chelsea, but since being loaned to Inter Milan, and since then Lukaku has become a mockery of rival clubs, and even the memes have spread everywhere, several times Lukaku has missed goals from Inter Milan matches and that's not just once, it's even very often. Even though it wasn't done on purpose, it was the player's bad luck which had an impact on his club, so that's why Inter Milan didn't renew his contract, and now AS Roma are affected by bad luck. I hope that in the next match, Lukaku will do it and prove his sharpness and convince him. AS Roma didn't make a mistake buying him...

I don't think Lukaku is a bad striker at all. He is quite talented. If the coach can use Lukaku properly,  he can play well. Lukaku's performance with chelsea was not good enough . And I would say that Lukaku  would have been able to perform better with Chelsea if the coach had paid enough attention to lukaku. Lukaku scored just 8 goals in 26 games with chelsea. On the other hand  Lukaku managed to score three goals in 5 matches with roma. I would say lukaku's performance  is improving with mourinho's support. Maybe  we will see a better performance from lukaku in the coming  matches . Lukaku may even have the best time of his career with Roma.
1073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: October 04, 2023, 02:06:09 PM
regarding Real Madrid victory yesterday, it was fantastic when you saw Federico kick which was very hard and the contribution of Vinic and Bellingham appeared very strong. in the UCL match it seems that Real Madrid is a more worthy candidate even though Barcelona is also there.
Madrid looks better this season both in Laliga and UCL of course because several young players added to the main squad have a good influence on Madrid's performance. I admit that Ancelotti always has a good strategy for his team and really manages them so they can win. in every match, last night's match against Napoli also looked good even though they conceded two goals but Madrid was able to win the match.

Barcelona is still not convincing in the UCL matches this season and has a lot of homework to do in chasing the title, but they are still quite taken into account in Laliga, Xavi still has a lot to do to make Barcelona perform better, especially Lewandowski, a slightly older player whose performance may be a bit low. decreases from match to match so he cannot continue to be expected to be the main striker. it is important to add some other young players like Madrid did.
I don't think Real madrid is very strong.  Several weaknesses in their squad are quite visible. There is no experienced striker in the squad . The team depends on their midfielders . The team is especially  dependent on bellingham's performance. Bellingham did not play well against atletico madrid, as Madrid lost the match 3–1. Now,  if Bellingham suffers an injury, madrid's performance is likely to  deteriorate.

It is true that barcelona's performances are still somewhat erratic . Still  the team is strong enough. I say this because they have enough talented players in attack, midfield and defense. And if the players can adapt themselves well to Xavi's match tactics then Barcelona's performances will be more consistent and stronger.
Since the departure of Karim Benzema, Real Madrid really feels like they have lost a striker who had perfect character. Currently Madrid's shortcomings in this position are very clear, but Ancelotti always has a way to maximize the existing players. Joselu is predicted to be Benzema's successor but his performance is still very far from expectations but his presence can also be quite helpful. Bellingham is a midfielder but he was given freedom by Ancelotti so he was able to score goals in almost every match. However, I don't agree if he is always the main hope because this tactic will be very vulnerable and easy for opponents to read. This means that if there is a team that is able to turn off its movement then it will be very dangerous for the attack rate because they will not have other alternatives.
~

Personally I think Ancelotti doesn't like Joselu. Joselu is not in his match plan. And that's why we didn't see Joselu in Madrid's starting XI in yesterday's match. Ancelotti trusts Rodrygo. But Joselu was more experienced than Rodrygo.
The lack of a striker like Benzema cannot be filled so quickly. Madrid is an experienced team. And perhaps because Ancelotti is an experienced coach, Madrid's performance is consistent. But Ancelotti is well aware of his team's attacking weaknesses. And this is why he is trying new formations almost every match.
Madrid need an experienced and tested striker like Mbappe or Haaland. Because Rodrygo can still be considered inexperienced. Without a striker like Mbappe in Madrid's attack, Benzema's absence will not be compensated.

It seems Manchester United will not qualify for the next round, sure they have a chance if we talk about the probability, but it's high unlikely. They don't have second strategy e.g. new goalkeeper and new defenders, so they will keep use their current poor goalkeeper and defenders.

At least, Hojlund didn't get bullied like Mudryk since he can show his capability Cheesy
I am not at all surprised by Manchester United's defeat. Many considered Manchester United as favorites in this match. But I was skeptical. So I refrained from betting on this match. And now it turns out my decision was correct.
Galatasaray would have won the match 4-2 if Mauro Icardi had been able to score from the penalty spot. One of the turning points of the match was Casemiro's red card. One of the most experienced players in United's squad is Casemiro. United's performance was further weakened after he received a red card. Manchester United is now the last team in the table. Confirming the knockout round has become more difficult for them. However, it is still possible for Manchester United to secure the knockout round.
The opportunity is still there, but if we look at Manchester United's current performance, I am very pessimistic about them being able to qualify from the group.
I see that Manchester United's defeat was inseparable from the mistakes made by Onana, even Casemiro's red card was also Onana's mistake which made Casemiro make this mistake.
And although Onana cannot be blamed alone, because of the blunders he made, all Manchester United players played very badly. I don't know how Ten Hag can make this team recover, but with so many Manchester United players injured, it is almost impossible for him to do it. make this team recover in the near future.

Manchester United's overall performance was poor.  And so I will not blame only Onana. The chemistry between Manchester United players is not good, this is why i think their performance is poor. But maybe if Onana had performed a bit better, they would not have been defeated in the match,  maybe the team would have been able to draw the match. Still  there's no denying that United's performance was poor.

Ten Hag must first try to stabilize his team. I don't see any chance for this team to improve unless there is a change in match strategy. If they continue this poor performance, the management may soon start looking for a new coach.
1075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 04, 2023, 10:13:40 AM
Too bad for André Onana. A goalkeeper who was one of the best in Europe is now a burden to his club. He has suddenly lost confidence and his performance is nothing to commend. He usually falls before any strike and has failed to make important saves. I have always complained when goalkeeper engage in risky passes close to their goalpost because a slight mistake can be disastrous. Although Galastataray lost the penalty it resulted in a red card against Casemiro which led to more pressure on the Manchester team. It is a shame to see if the best clubs in the world at the bottom of Group A that have low-rated teams like Copenhagen and Galatasaray. I don't know how long the Glazers will keep Erik Ten Hag as coach of the club. But we saw Højlund showing that the money invested in him was not a waste with a brace but his efforts were not well celebrated due to the loss.
It is just difficult to understand Onana right now. He is a very inconsistent goalkeeper in his career. I mean his performance at Inter was amazing in the previous season. He was one of the players who were talked about because of the number of saves he made in the Champions League. But he is desperate now.
He was like the most responsible player for the loss last night. That misplaced pass cost them too much. If it didn't happen maybe they couldn't have lost the game at least. Now I'm curious about whether ten Hag would give Altay Bayindir a chance in his place. ten Hag is also under pressure these days of course and he needs to try everything he can.
Erik Ten Hag has to think hard about making the club run stable again and be able to perform consistently. Maybe replacing Onana with Altay Bayindir could help Manchester United defense a little because so far Altay Bayindir has not made his debut at Manchester United since being brought in from Fenerbahce in the Turkish super league.
If Erik Ten Hag doesn't act immediately, it's likely that Manchester United will experience difficulties and it will be difficult to get points in the Champions League. Of course this will be a tough consideration for Ten Hag but if it isn't done immediately we all won't know the extent of Altay Bayindir performance.

I thought Onana was a good goalkeeper.  But he is not suitable for a big team like manchester united . Onana needs to be more  diligent. Manchester united's defense is weak,  along with their goalkeeper's  performance. Onana managed just one save against galatasaray. Galatasaray had a total of 4 on target shots, and the team managed to score all three.

I would say Ten hag should change his match strategy. Manchester United's performance will be stronger if Ten Hag's match strategy is stable. Also several players of the team are injured. Even if these players return to the squad, I think Manchester United's performance will be consistent again.

regarding Real Madrid victory yesterday, it was fantastic when you saw Federico kick which was very hard and the contribution of Vinic and Bellingham appeared very strong. in the UCL match it seems that Real Madrid is a more worthy candidate even though Barcelona is also there.
Madrid looks better this season both in Laliga and UCL of course because several young players added to the main squad have a good influence on Madrid's performance. I admit that Ancelotti always has a good strategy for his team and really manages them so they can win. in every match, last night's match against Napoli also looked good even though they conceded two goals but Madrid was able to win the match.

Barcelona is still not convincing in the UCL matches this season and has a lot of homework to do in chasing the title, but they are still quite taken into account in Laliga, Xavi still has a lot to do to make Barcelona perform better, especially Lewandowski, a slightly older player whose performance may be a bit low. decreases from match to match so he cannot continue to be expected to be the main striker. it is important to add some other young players like Madrid did.

I don't think Real Madrid is very strong, several weaknesses in their squad are quite visible, i can see there is no experienced striker in the squad. You knw the whole team depends only on their midfielders, if i say more specifically they are mostly dependent on Bellingham's performance. Bellingham did not play well against Atletico Madrid, as Madrid lost the match 3–1.  Now if Bellingham suffers an injury, Madrid's performance is likely to deteriorate.

It is true that Barcelona's performances are still somewhat erratic, still the team is strong enough. I say this because they have enough talented players in attack, midfield, and defense.  If the players can adapt themselves well to Xavi's match tactics then Barcelona's performances will be more consistent and stronger.

Iftikhar played very well. He was able to play big innings when the team needed it. He returned to the dressing room after collecting 83 runs off 85 balls. But we haven't seen a big innings from Shadab. Babar Azam on the other hand is playing brilliantly. He scored 83 runs off 51 balls unbeaten. This is because of Babar's disastrous innings. Pakistan team managed to collect 241 runs in 34 overs. As long as Babar Azam is at the crease, the match will be in Pakistan's control. But if Babar is out, it will be difficult for Pakistan to win.
No doubt Pakistani top order are going with one of their worst forms which is quite disappointed because entire nation expect good results from them, and they have already done unexpected performance a dozen of times in the past, but now they are totally out of form, if they make some good contribution in early stage of the game the later rest of the player will not face huge pressure and thus small performance will qualify Pakistan for semifinals.
If Baber hasn't made a decision to bat, then I am sure that Pakistan will choke and lose his most of the wickets before handsome runs. While iftimania also add a good contribution and thus due to their both partnership Pakistan able to score such Height runs but unfortunately after Baber retired hurt rest of the player hasn't controlled situation and thus lose by 14 runs
Pakistan's poor performance in the warm-up matches before going to the World Cup is really disappointing. Pakistan fans never expected this from them as they lost both the matches they played in the warm-up matches. Although the warm-up matches are in the early stage but they must perform well in the later matches otherwise there is a possibility of them getting knocked out of the World Cup. Although it was not expected from Pakistan that they would lose the warm-up matches like this, everyone expected good things from Pakistan in the warm-up matches. Both the batsmen had good batting performances which made Pakistan score so many runs. Although Pakistan managed to score huge runs but unfortunately they went unbeaten by 14 runs, but we will definitely expect better things from them in the World Cup.

It is not only that Pakistan is playing badly in the warm up match , we have not seen good performance from the  pakistan team in the asia cup as welll . They lost badly against India and Sri lanka . Despite having such a strong and experienced squad,  their performances have been poor..

Pakistan's batting order performance is erratic as we have seen for a long time.  and paakistan can't  get their batting order right . pakisthan had the potential to do well in  this world cup as they have some great pace  bowlers in their squad . But the  performance of pakistan's pace bowlers is also looking  very poor now . And if this continues,  it will be impossible for pakistan to perform well and maintain consistency in the world cup.

Aparently make Lukaku as centre striker to replace Tammy Abraham position seems good very choice because 4 goals from 5 matches in all competitions was showing Lukaku gradually has found his shape again with Roma and last week he can able to scored and bringing Roma to ended their poor results in Serie A and win from Frosinone and for next week i think Roma have potention to resumes their winning streak because this weekend Roma will facing weak team Cagliari and obviously not required to analysis because Roma is clearly better than Cagliari and i am confident Roma will ended this match with the winning result and collect 3 points

Lukaku's performance with Roma is quite good. And I would say Lukaku has been able to adapt to Roma quite quickly. And in every match we see better performances from Lukaku.

Roma have plenty of talented players in attack. However, their performance is a bit slow. Perhaps they are not able to adapt themselves well to Mourinho's match strategy. If the performances of Dybala, Lukaku and Abraham continue, Roma's attack will become even stronger. I guess we will see more organized gameplay from Roma in the upcoming matches. And gradually the team will be able to climb towards the top of the table.

Even though he seems to be the leader of Monaco, there is a problem. This problem is the fact that they concede too many goals. They concede goals frequently, and their problems in this regard have been revealed by conceding 10 goals so far. Their victory in the match against Reims this week is very important. For this reason, the matches they will play in the next few weeks are very important for Monaco.
Yes, it seems that Monaco has not been consistent enough in the matches he has played even though he is in first place, but this match against Reims will determine between the two which club will occupy first place, of course if Monaco can win this match he will still be at the top of the standings. However, Reims is also in good condition and this match will take place at Reims' home ground, of course it makes things a little easier and Reims will try hard to win this match to occupy first place, but the chances of winning between these two club are almost the same so it is difficult to predict this match but I will bet on a draw with a score of 1:1

Monaco's performance has not been consistent at all.  They have won two of their last five matches . Draw two matches and lose one. So there is no reason to think that this team is too strong. The reims team is in a similar situation . Reims will be able to take the top spot in the table if they can win this home match. And reims team will play in this match with the aim of getting 3 points.

The matches between these two teams are competitive. In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Reims won two matches, Monaco won two matches and drew one match. So it can easily be assumed that the two teams are almost equally strong. So the chances of winning are equal for both the teams.

It seems Manchester United will not qualify for the next round, sure they have a chance if we talk about the probability, but it's high unlikely. They don't have second strategy e.g. new goalkeeper and new defenders, so they will keep use their current poor goalkeeper and defenders.

At least, Hojlund didn't get bullied like Mudryk since he can show his capability Cheesy

I am not at all surprised by Manchester United's defeat. Many considered Manchester United as favorites in this match. But I was skeptical. So I refrained from betting on this match. And now it turns out my decision was correct.
Galatasaray would have won the match 4-2 if Mauro Icardi had been able to score from the penalty spot. One of the turning points of the match was Casemiro's red card. One of the most experienced players in United's squad is Casemiro. United's performance was further weakened after he received a red card. Manchester United is now the last team in the table. Confirming the knockout round has become more difficult for them. However, it is still possible for Manchester United to secure the knockout round.
