1  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ? Lega Serie A ?? (Italian League) Prediction Thread 2023/2024? on: May 01, 2024, 06:59:34 PM
Inter Milan has already won the italian seria a, they're 18 points gap away from the second placed team, so predicting a home win doesn't look like a good pick. Even when they're not playing in major tournaments like the champions league or coppa Italia, the coach might decide to gamble on the rest of their features by giving young promising players a chance to prove themselves. If I were to predict any of these matches, I would avoid Inter Milan, Ac Milan and Atalanta predictions looks good.
I agree that they do not need a win, in fact I agree that it all looks like it is going to be quite a bit of a different situation after this point and that is why battling to see who will win is a little weird for me. I understand why it feels like it is a big deal, but I just don't feel the same way at all, which is why I try to stay away from it as much as I possibly can.

The best thing I could do at this point would be just fixing what I could do, and that means that I am not going to bet on these, because lets take Inter for example, of course they may win, they look like they may, but at the same time I feel like we are talking about a team that doesn't care anymore, so how could I know if they won't be playing terribly? Because they just won't care?

I don't see it that way, in fact I think Manchester City and Arsenal will both face difficult matches in the remaining matches this season, especially with the pressure that they cannot lose if they want to remain in the competition for the Premier League title this season.

Manchester United is not an easy opponent for Arsenal, now you can see that this season Manchester United beat the top teams and Manchester United even managed to hold off Liverpool, thus making Lovepool out of the competition for the title this season so I will not underestimate Manchester United.

Likewise for Manchester City, they will be quite difficult against Tottenham. In the last few matches, both Manchester City have looked quite difficult and that is the reason that the match between the two will be the same, especially since both teams have great motivation to win the match.
I do not think that City will have trouble against anyone after this point, they have played very well and I assume that they are going to be quite good until the end as well.

I believe that we are going to end up with a good result one way or another, and should be considering what they could do for the long term as well. I am not saying that we are going to end up with a terrible fall, of course it is going to be something that will take a while, but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with a trouble, just assume that it will do fine later on. City may have seem like they lost UCL, but they played insanely well for that game, they were just unlucky and they look like still the best team in the world, so they will get these wins for sure.

The storage method used depends on the era, people who lived in ancient times before the advent of technology considered the underground storage method to be one of the most effective. The situation at that time was less conducive due to the less dense population in the villages and the lack of electricity facilities, making them feel anxious about keeping money and gold at home.
The storage methods used by people at that time were not completely wrong, before deciding to store their assets underground, they had first considered where the safest place was. We never know what kind of protectors people used at that time to prevent earthworms and other insects from destroying their money. One thing they believe is that saving money in land can give them comfort because they can avoid the evil intentions of other people.
I would guess even in that situation most of them used something that could store it very well and not like this. Like for example they had some wine cases type of things where they put COINS in them, not things rats could eat, or termites. In that case, you have to go through clay first, and also eat the coins, no alive organism would do that to be fair, not because they can't but what are they going to even gain from it?

It is not in their food chain so they would ignore it. Only risk in that case would be getting it stolen, but to be fair that's true for any form of storing, doesn't matter what you do , ancient or modern, if you get it stolen then you could get it stolen. All in all, this was a horrible method for the modern era for sure.

Whatever will happen to PSG this season, even though they are able to reach the final in the Champions League, does not change Mbappe's decision to leave PSG. It has become a unanimous decision for Mbappe who is determined to leave Paris to start his future career in another league, and the club that will be Mbappe's goal for Supporting his career is Real Madrid. I think it is impossible for Real Madrid to refuse this Parisian star player. He has extraordinary abilities that Real Madrid players don't have, meaning he will complement the Real Madrid squad next season and of course Real Madrid will be a stronger club. from now on because of these top players.

Being a PSG player for approximately 7 years, there are ups and downs in Mbappe's mind, even since PSG has more than one star player like Neymar and Lionel Messi, Mbappe has learned many things at PSG, that every player will definitely leave when his time is up, he too have to move from their comfort zone and explore new leagues like the two previous players Neymar and Lionel Messi did, they have good experience in other leagues and Mbappe has to emulate that so he can become a top European player and I am sure of the potential that Mbappe has one day he will be like those who have a lot of experience.
Mbappe played many years alongside Neymar, they were a great duo together, but that's only when Neymar played, what Neymar had during his PSG run is exactly what he has right now, dude is always injured, he literally went to Saudi Arabia and played one game and got injured and ended his season yet again, which shows why PSG wanted to get rid of him quickly.

Mbappe will go to a team that will actually have a UCL chance, because PSG always struggles, except this season which is a shocker, because it's his last season, but Real is always fighting for a chance to win UCL, and he will want to be in a team that doesn't just win the league, but will win UCL too, and adding Mbappe to Real Madrid would mean that they will become a team that's exceptional and probably the best team in the world.

Liverpool are increasingly losing control. I think Liverpool can still fix their problems by performing well after being beaten by Everton, but I understand that Liverpool are experiencing problems and that is what triggered Liverpool's current decline. I assess the coach's decision when replacing Moh Salah in the 79th minute. This was the wrong decision, Moh Salah should have been included in the starting 11 in the match from the start. Maybe if Moh Salah had been in Liverpool's game from the start, maybe Moh Salah could have scored a goal and Liverpool could have won, but because Moh Salah was given only a little time, he didn't can score goals quickly.

I understand that Jurgen Kloop did this so that Moh Salah's stamina was still good enough to be used as a substitute and could score goals easily but unfortunately Salah didn't want that so Salah felt that Kloop's decision was wrong and caused a feud between the two, I hope Jurgen Kloop can To overcome this, he is a head coach who has patience in caring for his subordinates well. Hopefully this will not happen again in the next match.
I feel like no matter how many games they win in a row, there is really nothing that they can do to get a better result. Klopp era is now over and they won that shield or whatever thingy this season and nothing more that's it. I think it's quite obvious that they are going to end the season as third and that's it. I feel like that's not really that bad, they should be happy with what they have and they shouldn't really consider anything more.

I personally believe that they did way more than they could last season which is an improvement and when a team has an improvement that's a lot more important. I understand that most people expected them to do even better but the reality is that as long as they did alright that means we are going to see them as improved over last season.

Comparing Xavi with Guardiola is like comparing heaven and earth, the difference is very big. Xavi is very lucky because he is an inseparable part of Barcelona. The trust of Barcelona management in giving him the opportunity to handle the team when it was experiencing a financial downturn has given him experience in handling top class team in European competitions.

I admit, Xavi did not completely fail this season even though he was unable to present a single trophy for Barcelona. He was able to prove his quality amidst the doubts that continued to come to him, Xavi's performance was not too bad because he succeeded in bringing Barcelona to the quarter-finals of the UCL and he is trying to make his team finish in runner-up position in La Liga.
You are saying that now, but this is the first time Xavi came to a big club, he spent just 2 years there, he won one La Liga and he has seen one quarter finals of UCL with the team already and he did that with a team that has HUGE amount of debt, whereas Guardiola has never been to a team with a financial trouble, when he was back at Barcelona, he was basically spending money like crazy, and now he is at City, we have seen him spend money like crazy on players as well.

This is why I would say the difference isn't that huge, if you put Xavi at a team with no financial trouble, I am sure that he will do just as well as Guardiola. I mean look at Pep, dude has won so many premier leagues, but only one UCL with the most dominant English team, I bet that Xavi could do that too.

AS Roma are not in form but they seem promising outside their domestic Serie A league. Daniele De Rossi will always deliver his best performance, keen on improvement towards his players and their style of performing on the pitch. Atalanta are inform and facing AS Roma would be a little bit headache for Nerazzurri headcoach, Gian Piero Gasperini. He's effortlessly making huge plans to extend his glorious momentum with his current team. It have never been easy for them but they keep pushing for brilliant performance against opponents.
Facing Roma is challenging for any team now. I would not say that this team is not in good form. Roma team is now more interested in winning the Europa League title. Roma shared the points with Napoli in the last match. I can't say sharing points against a team like Napoli is a bad result. This is a good enough result.

Roma will play at home against Atalanta. But I'm not sure if Roma can win. Because now De Rossi is more worried about the match against Leverkusen. Roma will face Leverkusen on May 3 and May 10. And Roma will play against Atalanta on May 6. So I think Roma have a big chance of dropping points against Atalanta.
Do we really think that though? I get that Roma did alright, but this is the same team that failed to win at Serie A to get that fourth position and still losing points left and right there, I am not sure if they are really that great. I am not saying that Roma is a bad team, obviously they are not a bad team, but I feel like it is not looking all that crazy, we should probably consider the fact that they are just alright and not a big deal. This is of course just my thought and I could be wrong and they could be a great team.

But, if we see Leverkusen easily beat them like 2-0 or so this game, on the first leg, then we would see that Roma wasn't that much of a great team and that could be understandable in the end, we are seeing things change in the end but Leverkusen is a great team.
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why has bitcoin prices not increased just after halving ? on: April 30, 2024, 09:15:54 AM
People are rushing and expect that after day 1 of halving event they are really that longing for that huge long green candle on the chart. lol

For those who havent been able to experience bull run then they would really be having that kind of approach or beliefs that they do have in mind since they do lack that awareness and experience.
On the time that they've been wary about on how this market works then they would really be that tending to adjust accordingly. It do really still takes time but of course its something that would
not be known on when it would happen. It is really just that people are really that too impatient on things on which they do really believe that they could really be able to handle it out
so easily and did expect that price pumps could really happen afterwards.
That's because of a lack of knowledge among newbie investors because they didn't do any research before making investments so they don't know how it works in the first place, if they had checked the charts and the history of Bitcoin, they would know that the halving doesn't magically make the price go up because it's a technical event that reduces the block reward of Bitcoin and doesn't pump the price of it.

What's surprising for me is to see some senior investors asking the same question and having doubts that why Bitcoin and the market didn't go up after the halving and these questions were being asked after one day of the halving which clearly shows that they were expecting a sudden pump in the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies right after the halving event.
Those people are not really aware of the market, and they do not check it. If you are a "veteran" and still asking why it hasn't gone up yet, then you are not really a veteran at all, that's why it doesn't really make sense to call them a veteran. Just because they have been here for a long time, doesn't make them a veteran.

Someone who has been here for 10 years, and luckily got into the market and invested when it was cheap because some friend told them and they just did not get out, may not have any idea about what halving even is, whereas someone who has been here for a year, who worked on every indicator and learned very well, could make more money than the old timer. That's why veteran is not something we say to just people who has been here for a long time.

If you look at these two teams by comparing their performance in the domestic league I don't think it's fair because we don't know how tough the competition is in the league, it will definitely have a difference in the tension of the competition. I agree that Bayern Leverkusen have been amazing this season both in the domestic league and in other leagues, likewise Roma haven't really given their best performance in the league, but overall I think they are pretty evenly matched and both have their own style of play so maybe they won't be too aggressive and pay attention to each other's matches first.

It can't be like that, but maybe what can be different is the mentality will definitely be affected if Roma have a losing streak.
I would say that while it is not possible to calculate the league difficulty difference, we could say that a team that has been unbeaten for 40+ games and won the league above Bayern Munich is still by far better than a team that failed to beat out Bologna in the serie A to be in the top four.

If we had like Inter winning the title but Roma being second or something like that then we could maybe argue, then we would say if Inter is better or Bayern (even in that case Bayern is better for me) but we are talking about fifth of Serie A versus the team that did not lose for 40+ games in a row now, including their domestic cup, their league and europa all together. So they could end up with three titles in a single season and already guaranteed one, the other seems quite easy and all they have left is this one.
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: April 29, 2024, 04:41:06 PM
Real Madrid have high odd of winning the Champions League than any other teams because Manchester City are the toughest team I fear the most and now they are out and I'm not sure Bayern Munich aren't good to that standard, so I think they are good to go with Bayern Munich and even in the final, any team that comes their way in the final will be gun down, be it Dortmund or PSG, Real Madrid has sealed this one in the bag.
Real Madrid are really at the top this season and they will be very dangerous when they enter the final. This season Bayern Munich is not in consistent performance so when they face Real Madrid it will be much different. Real Madrid's task is to beat Bayern Munich and if they manage to reach the final then I am sure Real Madrid will be a candidate to win. Even though in the final they will face PSG or Dortmund because in terms of experience and mentality Real Madrid is far superior to those two teams.
When it comes to UCL, there is something about Real Madrid that takes over, not every year, like for example last year City easily beat them, it was I think 4-1 or something, it was an incredibly easy game for City and then they ended up winning the title at the end as well. However, in most seasons when Real Madrid plays at UCL they just end up being the candidate.

Like I said, there are many seasons they do not win as well but they are always favourites to win, they always have a high chance to win, there isn't a single season in the last 10 years or so where Real wasn't considered high favourites, there could be one other team maybe and sometimes not even that. This is the team that won it three times in a row, how many other teams could say they done that? None at all.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you increasing your bitcoin investments because of today halving ? on: April 28, 2024, 05:12:04 PM
So, let me get this straight: you're no longer investing in Bitcoin because its value is too high at the moment? I understand your point, and there's certainly nothing wrong with diversifying and opting for other investments as well, but doesn't that work against the principle of DCA, something that is commonly promoted on the forum and advised by many members to newer ones, as a safe-ish way to invest in Bitcoin?

I'm personally not into altcoins for long-term holding, although I've made some reasonable returns on a short-term basis, but I understand your point. Despite that, you're still earning Bitcoin through signature campaigns, so unless you're using these funds elsewhere, you're practically investing in both simultaneously.
There are "some" people like that, which I understand and I feel like we are going to end up with a lot of them in the end, they end up investing into altcoins and not into bitcoin at all. I think it's quite obvious that we are going to end up with people like us who invest into bitcoin as well. It's not that easy to make a big difference in the crypto world, sometimes we do make a big difference and sometimes we do just enough, I feel like that's all that matters in the end.

I think it is going to be easy enough and clear enough that bitcoin is the least risky asset to invest into, yes maybe it won't go 100x and that's why some people avoid it, but it would also not crash to zero and that's why we do not stay away from it neither. I believe it is still by far the best asset to invest into.
12  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: April 28, 2024, 04:35:11 PM
The competition will be between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich and in this competition, the two managers will make almost all the decisions for their teams off the field. However, although the two managers are quite experienced, considering Real Madrid's team, Ancelotti will have some chance to stay ahead of Bayern Munich with his team. The first leg match is important for both the teams so both the teams will definitely want to do well in the first match and take the pressure off in the second match. If the first leg is a draw between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, the second leg will undoubtedly be a tough match.
Maybe it is just me I don't know but I feel like Real has absolutely no chance of letting this Bayern team to beat them. I feel like Real will end up with a win and Bayern is already in trouble and Tuchel will be fired by the end of the season so it is not going to be all that hard for Real Madrid to win this one. Ancelotti knows what he is doing and he has all the plans in his mind and he knows how to pull the strings.

I think Real Madrid will end up with a great result eventually, we just need to make sure that we could see them doing well enough and it shouldn't really worry anyone. Bayern played terrible all season long and yes they are at semi finals so it looks like they are doing alright at the moment but the reality is that we are not going to see them win this game.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 27, 2024, 05:02:51 PM
Bayer Leverkusen is a great team that is doing well every where, in Bundesliga they are considered as the best team in the league no doubt about that and in the Europa League they are seeing as one of the best team that is fit of winning the league.  I really want Bayer Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga and europa league because they deserves it . If Roma and Bayer Leverkusen should meet in the finals I don't think Roma will be able to defeat Bayer Leverkusen because even in the Italian league Roma is not even in the top four best team for thus season but you can see that of Bayer Leverkusen doing well in Bundesliga,  even in europa league Bayer Leverkusen has performed better in their games.
They are already champions in the Bundesliga, now their mission is to win the title in the European League. Their challenge now is AS Roma under the direction of De ROssi. The previous season they failed by AS Roma, and this season they must not achieve the same thing, they must take their revenge and advance to the final round. However, it is not easy to do all of that, because AS Roma itself will definitely be aiming for the same mission.

Leverkusen is the first favorite in the European League this season, this is a very natural thing because they are the best club at the moment compared to other clubs. Xabi Alonso must have prepared a scenario for them to apply in the semifinals. He will try hard to bring Leverkusen to a treble this season. And that opportunity is very wide open for them, all that remains is for them to try to make it happen so that their dreams can be achieved this season and I think they will be able to do it.
I do agree that Leverkusen is the favourites, but at the same time I am very well aware that Liverpool was the favourite and they did so well until they faced Atalanta and then they ended up losing it and that's the most important part. I feel like the most important thing is that we are talking about something that is looking to be a bit different and could be very different.

We should consider the situation to be sensitive in this case and this is why we can't really make it change all that much. We need to consider the current teams to play and we will end up seeing who will be good and who won't be. Leverkusen IS the favourites, but they could very well lose against anyone just like how Liverpool did, and we do not know if that will be the case or not, that is going to be unknown until played.

But the sad thing for Bayern Munich and bad news for Tuchel is about Gnabry and Sane, two players of this team. While Tuchel is under pressure because of the bad results he got so far during this season. Now in the game against Eintracht Frankfurt, he can't use these two players because both players were not training with the team recently and they are not in good form for this game.
Bayern Munich should able to win despite both Gnabry and Sane were absent.

Frankfurt isn't strong in this season and the match will held in Bayern Munich's ground too, so this will be advantage to Bayern Munich. Although they will have a big match 4 days later against Real Madrid, but Bayern Munich will play with their main squad today.
Bayern Munich had trouble and I think it s clear that they do not really care about the league anymore, what could fix this season is UCL, if they could end up fixing UCL then I would say that they are going to do fine. Tuchel is such a weird manager that he managed to watch Lille win the league title when he was at PSG and when he is at Bayern he watched Leverkusen lift the title, and yet he still managed to get UCL with Chelsea so everyone considers him as a good manager.

I am sure that even after this season he will manage to find some good team to manage and will be doing better. Normally big name managers do not stay unemployed for too long, unless that is what they prefer because some like Zidane just prefers to be not a great one and just retire instead.

It is true that PSG have lots of money to spend for the best players. However it is really not an easy work to fill Mbappe's space.  Sad  I must admit that he is the best player among the active players now. Even much better than Haaland considering that Haaland isn't as versatile and consistent as Mbappe. Therefore a talent like Mbappe is difficult to find.

But not impossible of course. Every year there are new surprisingly good talents coming out. Mbappe was also found like that in the end. PSG scouts had better work hard by thinking of the possibility that Mbappe leaves this summer. Because from now on it seems quite possible.
I feel like that's not exactly how a "team" works, we are talking about replacing a players contribution and not the player itself exactly. It's basically a situation where if you lose 5 from one position and get 3, then the other 2 will be improved from other positions. So, if your left wing drops a bit, then you get even better striker or better midfielder or a better right wing, and cover that difference from there. That's the thing about the situation we should be considering for the future of PSG.

And to be fair we are talking about a situation where it's quite clear that PSG already got much much better compared to last season, I have said this at the start of the season but their improvement on midfield is insane right now, which we can see even with their UCL situation.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 26, 2024, 06:05:22 PM
Overall, we have 5 matches remaining in the Europa League, 4 semifinal matches and 1 final match which will determine which team is truly strong and worthy of winning the Europa League title this season.
In about week the first leg match will start and this will be the initial match for the team with its superiority to be able to get more favorable aggregate for the settlement of the second leg later.

Marseille vs Atalanta, the first leg match will give Marseille the advantage on paper because they are playing at home, this is good opportunity for them because in the second leg Atalanta will have the home advantage and Atalanta is not weak team.
Marseille must win big in the first leg if they want to have good chance of qualifying for the final, the second leg will be big pressure for Marseille if they don't win big in the first leg.
Roma vs Leverkusen, in this first leg Roma has the advantage of playing at home but Leverkusen in the away match also performed quite well and I think this match will be unlikely for Leverkusen to lose.
In the Roma vs Leverkusen match, I don't think we need to discuss it much because it is clear that Leverkusen will definitely be the team that will qualify for the final, moreover there is second leg match which will provide home match for Leverkusen.
Marseille doesn't look like that much of a great team this year, I am not saying that we are not seeing that much of a change at their run, sure they reached semi finals and that is a good thing for them but I do not think that they are doing all that much great at this moment. I think Atalanta will be a lot better and they will get their win one way or another. I think that is the most important thing.

I feel like we will see Leverkusen get to finals as well, they are an unbelievable team right now and they do not seem to have a stop and not losing at all. This is why I think Leverkusen and Atalanta final will be a possibility, and I believe that Leverkusen should be able to get that win as well. That seems like the most important bet of the season without a doubt for sure.

I think history will repeat itself this time, as it did last season when Man City were able to push Arsenal out of first place... Now City have a game in hand and I have no doubt that after the next match with Nottingham City will be first in the standings... It will be interesting to see who will become champions, but I don't think it will be Arsenal...
Yes that's right. It looks like Arsenal's history of failing to win the EPL league is repeating itself. Last season at the end of the season Man City managed to overtake Arsenal at the top of the standings and this season it is very likely that this will happen again if Man City sweeps all the remaining matches.

But Arsenal last season and this season are clearly different. This season Arsenal does have a good squad and the game is also good, just inconsistent. fatal mistake when facing Aston Villa at their own headquarters. However, the opportunity to win is still open if Tottenham is able to beat Man City because only Tottenham has been able to trouble Man City in the last two years and Arsenal has been able to wipe out all the remaining matches. If this scenario works out, perhaps history won't repeat itself.

What's interesting about Arsenal this season. Arsenal is the most productive team in scoring goals but not a single player is in the top ranks of TopSkor, because the distribution of goals is even across every striker and midfielder they have. This proves that Arsenal's game does not rely on one player but on teamwork.
I do agree that Arsenal do not end up with anything that makes a good "end result" situation. They are inconsistent and this means that one day they could get 5-0 and the other day they could lose and this makes fans incredibly furious as well. This should be the thing that we could end up with having trouble in the end.

I believe that we can't really consider this situation changing that easily because if they end up being inconsistent then you can't fix that with just getting better players or something. They need to just find a way to motivate the team constantly. Why do we think that even the greatest teams end up losing? Because they are bad? Of course not, many teams that end up winning 10+ in a row, and then lose to a bad team, only because it's lack of motivation.
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 25, 2024, 07:49:42 PM
there is no need to be surprised by the results of this season because every season there is always a change in the team that looks strong and will ultimately be defeated by another team and not always a strong team dominates a competition such as the UCL which is often dominated by Real Madrid and in the end last season was failed by Man City.
and this is an example that even though the European league is often dominated by Sevilla, in the end other teams such as Leverkusen, Atalanta, Roma and Marseille managed to enter the semi finals this season and even though previously Liverpool was one of the candidates to hold the European league title but in the end they had to lose against Atalanta.

changes like this will definitely happen frequently in the coming season and currently my prediction is that Leverkusen will win the European League title, although there are no guarantees because Atalanta also appears consistent in this competition.
the most important thing is that before betting on any European League match, you have to do a deeper analysis without having to bet on the winning result of one of the teams which results in a surprise that makes your bet lose.
That type of "underdogs beats the favourites" type of story line of course happens every season, but the reality is that we are looking into something that's much better and gets views, and yet Liverpool was a much much better team, everyone knew that unexpected results could happen, but nobody really assumed that Liverpool would be the one, they assumed that some other team would be the one.

I think this is why most people didn't really expected them to have something major, and that is why I think it's clear that we are not going to end up with anyone accepting this defeat as normal. Some other team could be understandable, but Liverpool is huge and they are fighting at Premier league for a title, so losing here was a shocker.

What do you mean he will continue to struggle? Did you get the impression that the coach or the players struggled in the Champions League quarterfinals? It was quite the opposite. Yet, the only right decision is to get rid of Tuchel. Surprisingly the guy always finds another big club to immediately get going after he gets fired. Once these coaches made it to the top of the list in the world, it doesn't matter what their results are. They sign contract after contract. Just look at Pochettino, one of the worst in the business. But he doesn't care, next club will be waiting for him when Chelsea fires him.
A beautiful and meaningful observation. Some team coaches continue to sign lifelong contracts due to their success. In my opinion, Tuchel joining Bayern was one of the biggest wrong decisions. I am sure that the players' pressure on the management to send Nagelsmann was effective in this. Nagelsmann is a young coach and perhaps unlucky in this regard. He may not have been wanted by some players because he was young.
While I do agree that Tuchel should be replaced, I think he wasn't the only problem, they can't just replace the manager and end up with a win, it is not that simple, well they could definitely end up with a win, but that could be because no other team would be as good as Leverkusen was this season but in that situation even Tuchel could win. I believe that, while they do need to change their manager, players were a little bit part of the issue as well, they have some players that they need to replace and it will definitely end up being important.

I hope that we could see changes one way or another, and we could probably see a greater return in the end. I hope that they would make some good transfers this summer in the end.

Unfortunately the 4 remaining matches for Arsenal will not be easy, at least 2 matches against Tottenham and Manchester United may make them lose points if they cant play well. Last match against Everton may also not easy, this team has just beaten Liverpool so Arsenal should not underestimate them. On other side, the fact that Arsenal is now leading with 4 points to City, although City has 2 more matches, it can be a pressure for City. The team that can break the pressure down and keep on their best performance will be the Champion.
I know that Man City is under a lot of pressure, but they are in control of the championship race. The championship will belong to them as long as they do not lose the remaining matches. Liverpool is the team at the most disadvantage in the championship race this season. Liverpool's second place could also fall to Man City if "The Citizens" get favorable results against Brighton.
In the remaining six rounds, Man City's schedule is considered the easiest in the "three horses" race to the throne. What I care about right now is whether Man City can break the "curse" that no team has ever won the Premier League four times in a row.
Obviously they still have the biggest advantage without a doubt. Sure they are a few games back and that makes them look like they are not leading the league right now, but if they win the games at hand, then they are going to end up being the leaders again, mathematically they have a chance to win it all.

Of course there is a possibility that they may not win, but when was the last time you have seen Manchester City needs to get a win at premier league and failed to get it? UCL is a different story, aside from last season City was never that dominant at UCL, which is why it's normal to see them lose again this year. However, if we are talking about premier league, they are as dominant as anyone has ever been, so that is important.
