Too much speculation about Ronaldo, why he isn't a starter, the rumors said he wants not to be a starter but another rumor said is just a tactic and strategy from Allegri, I don't know which one is true. but, from this situation, we all know something happens with Ronaldo, this is not as usual, In my opinion, possible there is a conflict between player and coach.
I highly doubt that Ronaldo ever be okay with being on the bench, this is Ronaldo we are talking about and he cares about that kind of thing a lot. This must have made him feel like he is not good enough to be in the starting eleven and that is one of the most important parts, I mean we are talking about something that is demanding for a player for his caliber and that is a very important factor.

Ronaldo could go to City or PSG and can still play every single game because he is THAT good and we all know it, so there is no strategy that could see him coming off bench and provide more to the team instead being on the pitch for 90 minutes which we all know he can do nearly every single game.

Ha-ha, I lost money on a bet again yesterday! Cheesy
West Ham are lucky Leicester got a red card! Well, West Ham are now top of the standings with two games and 6 points... Probably not for long...
By the way, last season West Ham and Leicester lacked a few points to qualify for the Europa League... Maybe this season they will be lucky!
I think a 4-1 result is not explained easily even with a red card at all. I have to say that it is not going to be that easy for Leicester to recover from this. I mean think about it we are talking about West ham here, they are not bad don't get me wrong but they lost Jack Grealish as well and they should have been a worse team and Leicester lost 4-1 to that team, that is humiliating.

Yes, as you can understand I wagered on that game as well. In any case the start of the season was a bit weird, so that is why I honestly believe that we should not be seeing any problem with weird results for now because that is the whole league and not just one team and that is why this game seems normal compared to some other games.
2043  Economy / Speculation / Re: Who's been buying recently? on: August 23, 2021, 08:38:26 PM
what about if the price never goes down back again to lower level, meaning people will never invest .. though price will surely dump after pump but the opportunity at certain time is limited , either you will profit this season or will wait for another months or year.
if you are willing to buy and hold then there is no issue about if the coin you bought is higher now or lowering the matter of trust and belief is one high percent why you are buying a coin.
That " WHAT IF" makes some people keep doubted on what they do.
*What it dump, what if it pumps". If we are willing to invest and take risks, buying this time is still an opportunity but we can't deny that buying at a lower price is the best choice for everyone. However, it was unfortunate that we never know when it comes nor we are sure that no more dumps to come.

Because honestly, we can't be all in the market rally always, dumps is still to come next to it that is why I couldn't push people to make a buy option. If they can manage to wait until the bear season will come, that was their choice as well.
That is why I never consider what is going on right now and what will happen in the near future, I just buy when I get the money. Unfortunately these days I do not have much money and that is why I haven't been able to buy too much, but that doesn't change the fact that I am not going to end up buying more in the future. "what if it goes down after I buy?" then I will end up buying more when I get the money, and if it goes up then I will just be happy and still probably get some more anyway.

I just believe that bitcoin will be going up in the future, even if there is a fall in the middle of the road, there will be a moment when it is higher and I will be very happy when that happens and there is no doubt in my mind that it will be higher than what I purchased, even if I buy at 64k, it dropped a lot and that is sad but it will recover eventually, so I am always happy.

we are entering the real adoption phase and yeah I am not against cashing some profits but no way the market can crash from here. It may go down and up like always but a complete crash is nearly impossible according to me.

Maybe if Bitcoin comes too stable in price, it would prompt us traders to took for other coins but there is no way this crypto bubble is going to burst anytime soon because even the biggest companies are adopting the blockchain technology.

But I do agree, like in gambling, in trading too, we must cash some profits from time to time. You don't want to end up virtually rich at the end.
I agree that there is absolutely no way that bitcoin would crash into oblivion, even when it had a 50% crash that was a period to make money because we had like 60% profit right after that and now around 50k prices, which means that even the drops are a way to make money in this market. This is why I do agree that people are not cold on bitcoin right now, everyone knows that even if it goes down there is a chance you could make money from it which causes the prices to go back up and that's what I believe will happen in the future if there is a drop as well.

Quick recovery on the falls is what we can ask for, when it goes down tiny bit, it takes very short period of time to get better, and when there is a huge fall like the one we had where it went down 50% it still took a month or two to recover and this gives people a lot of hope and they end up buying more.
2045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: August 23, 2021, 05:41:23 PM
It was an entertaining half, even better than the first. Bayern's defensive problems lies in the fact that they're missing a leader at the back. The sooner a new leader emerges, the better. But on the attack side, they're doing very well. Just need to improve their defence more. Cologne showed that, with good attacking plays, you can take advantage of Bayern's defense and cause a significant amount of damage.
Bayern lost Alaba and the new defense system need time to work together. Their defenders are good so they will fix their connections for the defense system after a few real matches and more trainings.

Problems in Bundesliga is Bayern can win many matches and one or two defeats mean nothing with Bayern. Final result is they take the Bundesliga title.
They lost Alaba and I know it is hard to replace him as a defender because he was a great one, but they got Upamecano from Leipzig along with their manager, and I am sure that a defender that has been on Bundesliga before (and finished second behind Bayern) with his same manager as well will not have too much of a chemistry issue or adaption period neither, so he will replace Alaba not that badly, and he is not playing that bad at all neither.

Their defense definitely requires some work I am not going to argue against that, but that is not mainly just because they lost Alaba, it is mainly because they are getting used to a new system under Nagelsmann and that is going to be a great deal, it is definitely going to work out in the end, they are already great on offense and the moment their defense starts clicking properly then they are going to be unstoppable again.
2046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: August 22, 2021, 08:20:01 PM
Barcelona no longer have Mr impossible in their team and now everyone takes them to be an average team, and if you ask me I don't see them challenging for top spot anymore...this will be another Atlético Madrid win as they are the only capable team( strong opposition)as far as Laliga goes.

Just last night Athletic Bilbao held Barcelona to a 1-1 draw despite having the least possession  but lets not write them off just yet.
The weird thing is that they do not have Messi anymore, but their defense sucked as well, and Messi wasn't a defensive player so the fact that they sucked on defense has nothing to do with the fact that they do not have Messi on the team anymore. I have always said, even while messi was here that their defense is way too slow and they need players that are much faster, people like Pique are great defensive players because of their minds and not their bodies but now their bodies are getting very old and very slow so now lesser talented people could end up passing them by just running circles around them.

This is why they need faster and quicker defenders that could stick to their man. Offense could be handled by the players they already have, people like Brian and depay and griezzmann are good players and can handle it, let's face it not many teams have that kind of trio, but their defense needs to get better.
2047  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin at new heights on: August 22, 2021, 06:48:56 PM
I am optimistic that the bitcoin price can increase to $50k because the bitcoin price is close to that price. If that does not reach $50k this week, bitcoin still has many times to reach that price soon. I am curious about the next highest bitcoin price will increase later because many people predict that the price can increase to $100,000 or more. I am sure many people await that moment and prepare for that time by trying to make more bitcoin before the price starts another rally.
Whenever price is going up, the great thing about what people believe will happen is the fact that price will go up very easily, but at the same time price may not do that in reality, it is just what people believe that it will go up. If it reached from 30k levels to 50k levels then why shouldn't it go back up? Even if there is a small drop then people will believe that it will recover a lot easier if it was a big increase before that.

Let's take two examples in hand, in one case it dropped from 40k to 34k and then goes to 30k, going back above 34k is not believed by people all that much because it has been dropping for a while, in another example it went from 30k to 40k but dropped to 36k, people believe it could be 40k again because there was an increase before that.

We are living the second one right now, there is no drop but even if there was one, we would believe it will recover, which is a self-fulfilling prophecy because when people believe that they buy bitcoin and when they do the price goes up and they turn out to be right.
2048  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin Bullish At The Moment on: August 22, 2021, 05:59:02 PM
Bitcoin tries to break $50,000. Will it succeed? What will be next of Bitcoin breaks $50,000? Will it rise toward $64,000 and test the all time high resistance?

The cap at $64,000 will not be easily broken but Bitcoin is the biggest beast I know. It beats all resistance, all bear attempts.

I think if Bitcoin fails and need more time to accumulate, it is not bad. We need an organic rise, and a more solid all time high. PlanB opened a poll for Bitcoin price. $100k, $288k, $350k, $500k. What do you think as the new all time high for B?
I do believe that breaking ATH was never a big problem for bitcoin, going up is a difficult thing all of its own but not specially about ATH, so let's say we are going from 50k to 55k right? In that case it is going to be tough, it could look easy but it is not easy in the bigger picture, it took some time and it took some money to do that, same goes for 60k to 65k as well, nothing special in the middle there with 64k, it is the same exact difficulty to go up and it will be always like that.

Each increase in bitcoin price requires people to spend money to buy bitcoins, and ATH is nothing different than that, we need people to keep on buying to break over that. I do not think that the next stop after 50k is 64k directly, I believe we need to think of it in 5k increments, after 50k it is going to be 55k to beat, and then 60k to beat, that is the steps in my mind.
2049  Economy / Economics / Re: Coinbase IPO was the largest IPO in 2021. 86 billion USD valuation on: August 22, 2021, 05:17:42 PM
I'm not surprised it was the biggest, as it's a company that's already known to crypto users, so there's a minimum risk of getting scammed, and they have 56 million users, so a huge community of people behind them. These two things sound promising enough to invest it because reputation + a huge user base almost guarantee the price will skyrocket. But that's a public offering, so it's about selling shares to people. That's what might have gathered attention not only of the crypto community, but of big stock traders as well, since getting into something crypto-related and yet familiar is getting more attractive to them.
I have to say they dropped pretty quickly afterwards, right now it is like 50 billion or so in marketcap. So, it is not just about having a lot of users or being great, they have an amazing model to make money as well with the trading fee's and that is what most of the wall street people did as well, they just make money based on commission whenever they convince someone to buy a stock but Coinbase is a bit different in which they do not even convince people, people go register an account to do that job themselves.

So, the reason why it was highly valuated and now not so much is the fact that it is a great way to make profit, buy the stock and hold it long enough and they will keep on profiting, the operating costs are not high and the profits are steady and that is what you want from any company or stock you own. It might be down now because it was overvalued, but the idea stands that it is a good stock to own.
2050  Economy / Economics / Re: Enjoy comunism (III) rats eating dead people and people eating rats in NK on: August 21, 2021, 09:44:19 PM
Pardon my ignorance but I really have to ask, is this happening in this 21st century or it is the lifestyle of before in NK? I can seem to wrap my head around people not having access to the basic human stuff! How in the world I'd the people over there able to survive on a daily basis! I really can't imagine a life much harder than what this people are going through if this is what is happening, anyone able to flee from such life should be very thankful. Cry
Yes it's still happening, we just don't see it and it's not documented since people are known to get jailed if they bring or smuggle footages on their cameras, the soldiers of the regimes checks everyone because they don't want anything getting out but they're sometimes unsuccessful so we see a glimpse of the atrocities in this rogue country. They eat anything and the government still provides but not enough.
I have to say I was quite ignorant about North Korea before this topic, I have to admit to that. I thought that NK was a big dictatorship that was fascist in every possible way, sort of like Hitler and Nazi Germany, that is what I believed what was going on there. Turns out, they claim that they are a socialist nation! What an interesting view.

Now, I wonder if people here believe that this was communism failing? I mean is there any human on this topic that believes the fact that there is a fat guy at the top doing everything he wants, eating, dancing, having sex, limitless power, with some less powerful but still quite powerful generals, with death squads, with everything else that is wrong with that nation and people starving under the regime, is... communism? I mean do you know what communism is? Commune, community, communism? I still dislike communism, that is for sure (still a leftist though) but I am pretty sure any person who has ever known what a real communism is would probably know that this is a fascist dictatorship, you are aware of that right?
2051  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 21, 2021, 06:16:01 PM
Atlanta begin superior team at least few match ended last season and make dominance from Juventus, Napoli and AS Roma. Now this season very different with AS Roma under Jose Mourinho, Juventus back to get sign from Massimo Allegri and bad result for Inter Milan without Lukaku. How ever this weekend we know which one team have ready with this season for Serie A and keep success for UEFA champion league participant to knock out stage.
I would say that the biggest advantage Atlanta had was the fact that teams underestimated them because of their past history, they haven't been good for decades and that is why people are looking for them to be not so great at all, and for the past few years they were all treated like they were getting some good results because they were lucky and that's it, people didn't realize that they actually became a good team in the long run.

In any case Inter part is true, and not just Lukaku neither, they are overall not a great team anymore because they earned 200 million euro profit from selling players and only spent 30 million euros on buying players, when they get that worse there is no way to get back, you have to just get similar players to replace the ones that left and when you do not do that then it means you will suck, that is not really a secret.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 20, 2021, 09:21:44 PM
I do believe that Kane is definitely bigger than the club for sure, I mean he did sign a contract that was way too long and also was not really needed as well. When players are a bit older then they really like to get longer contracts because even if they get bad or get injured then they can get paid and that is good thing for them, it is a guarantee that they will be paid and they can have ease of mind.

However Kane wasn't even that old neither. Kane is the type of player that you need when you are playing at the champions league final, and Spurs had a good champions league run for 3 years or so, but at the end of the day they are not there anymore at all, so in this case it was Spurs that got worse and took advantage of the long contract. What I believe should happen is that Kane should be sold to a team that has a chance to win the UCL, doesn't matter if it is City or Madrid or PSG or whoever, but he should not stay in Spurs for sure.
2053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: August 20, 2021, 08:35:37 PM
You expect a team that hasn't gotten the link between themselves on the pitch to break this Chelsea team with one of the best defense presently, with Kante back, Hakim Ziyech,as well the arrival of Lukaku will cause more harm Arsenal defense.
The Gunner's are without Lacazzette, Aubameyang,Nketiah as well Thomas Partey all out for this game.
Although this is a London derby,we know how it gets hard for both teams when they meet themselves here.
It probably gonna be a win or draw for Chelsea.
I do not think that Chelsea would had a problem with Arsenal defenses even without Lukaku. People are making this game out to be a lot bigger than what it should be, it is not really that much of a big game anymore. We have to come to realization that Arsenal is not a big club like they used to be, they are a big club but they are not that big.

I mean look at the results they got in the previous seasons and you will realize that they are just a regular mid table team these days to be fair. Whereas Chelsea did became UCL champions last year, finalist of FA cup, and fourth in the league as well, so you could always feel like you are going to win against mid table teams when you are that good. I believe that this game will be easy, of course underdogs could always beat the favorites but that doesn't mean that we should be expecting that to happen or the game to be any good.

The answer for that should be fairly obvious though its just my view but if they have a captcha then they want you the person to be there taking part in that activity and its a problem if you try to bypass that so expect trouble.   Like very often people pop up complaining they collected the faucet on multiple accounts and its not fair, they played it like a game to beat or hack etc. but thats not how it works and its not a win if breaking something in your favor and I encounter that attitude very often.  Its for 1 person to collect hourly if they like no more no less its very simple idea that somehow lasted years when most other similar sites disappeared like the dinosaurs.

I didnt use up my recent wheel spins as I had slight idea trend up could hesitate here and we go back down a little in a pullback.   So in nominal sense I get a couple more sats that way, so its very viable scenario but I've been tricked by chart action doing loops before.  Something like 42k I was thinking, its just this 200 day average being a yoyo for price as we orbit its influence is my impression I dont know we're negative or especially reversing some of the recent gains just yet.
I honestly believe that it is not about actually following the rules or not for these people. It is the first time ever I am seeing someone actually end up actually asking for something like this, normally they just do it. Why would you ask "could I use auto claiming for your website" when it is literally the first rule, it is obvious that they are just doing marketing for what they can do, it is more like "hey guys check out my question and understand what I am trying to say to all of you" and that's it.

And there are many many bots out there who are trying to do the same, some may succeed for a short period maybe but then will be figured out and start failing, or they will simply just fail as well. Which is why I think it is quite obvious that we should not be forgetting that freebitco.in is the one we should trust, they know what they will have to do in that case.

It really wasn't as easy as everyone made it out to be. Yes Italy still won, but first of all if you played a game with draw and said Italy you all lost, and at the same time everyone was saying Spain wasn't good enough anymore and they barely lost in the penalties, so they did all they could and that is a good thing.

However one thing is for sure, we are talking about something that is very very close and the finals will be the same way as well, do not put any team clearly ahead of any other team, this tournament is poster child for that, Switzerland literally beat France, that should have told us that there are no more favorites in any game anymore. It was a fun game to watch as a fan, I wagered on Italy to win total (incl. overtime and penalties) and that allowed me to make some profit, and hopefully we will get England to win as well, that would make me break even and even profit a bit finally.
2057  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: best indicator hunt ? on: July 03, 2021, 07:25:50 PM
Other than going for an indicator I would rather advice you build on your own trading psychology so has to have a good trading plan because indicators alone can make your trades poor and unprofitable. It's wiser you build on your self as such if you apply indicators to your chat they will serve as confirmation signals and not as leading signals because most indicators follow the market moves and can't predict the next move of a moving trade.
Indicators are what make you a good trader in the long term if you know how to use them but you are right you have to work on yourself as well. So, I would say that combine those two things together and you got yourself a good deal. Learn about both the trading world and how indicators work and how everything works, when you become very good at that then you can start to actually work on yourself and what type of trader you think you are.

After you got both of them down and learn them very well, you can start to combine those things and use what type of trader you are into the indicators you know and create something good. Not all indicators work for all people, some of them are good for certain people and some of them are bad for them, it is all depending on what type of person you are. This way everyone can create their own unique experience.

I think the Ramos one was a known thing for a while inside, and they just didn't want to pay that much money for a veteran player who is out of the door anyway because of his age, but I doubt that Varane thing was something they planned, certainly not with Ramos leaving at the same season, they would have kept Ramos one more season if they knew that Varane would leave, however dude just wanted to get out.

I still think that it is Real Madrid and they have a ton of money and they could end up using that money to get defenders, they already got one and they are looking for another.

Instead of making a big spending and get another superstar like they always do each season, for example instead of getting Mbappe or something like that, they could just instead split that money and buy two amazing defenders all they have to do is convince those players to come join them.

Officially: Nuno Santo is the new manager for Tottenham, after negotiating with all the available and related managers in the world.
For me, he is the right coach in the right place because of the club's ambitions and tools and the ability of this man to develop them and raise the ceiling of expectations.
Logically the goal is one of the first four places.
He can he achieve what his predecessors failed to do.
Welcome Nuno Esprito Santo!!!!
Sell Harry Kane and build a new team,am dure he will ture this side around, we'll want to see English players as well in your squad not only Portuguese players.
Lol, i am seeing a more competitive side next Season in the premier League.
It has been a news for a few days now I think. Spurs is getting Wolves manager shows that Spurs is not after a championship or a high level at all they are just going to fight for a place in European league at the very best, or hope for the last champions league spot but all of it will be very difficult. Why? Because there is City, which I think could still win the league yet again, there is Liverpool which will be better I hope because they used to be so great but had a bad stretch last season, there is United who bought Sancho to add to last year's amazing team that finished second, and then there is Chelsea that won the champions league last year.

So when you have those 4, that leaves the 5th position open. I am not saying that Spurs will be able to get that neither because we have few other teams fighting for that spot as well but that is the best I think they could do.

I don't think that these two will ever return to South Africa. The advantage with UK is that it never deports criminals, if they can prove that their life is in danger if deported. In the past, foreign pedophiles and rapists have managed to overturn their deportations, by arguing that they may face physical harm if sent back. And for the financial criminals, it is even easier. London is being regarded as the hub of white collar criminals. The government in UK doesn't care if your funds are stolen from somewhere. As long as you are rich, and is able to spend that money in the UK, you are welcome there.
I doubt that it is about being deported or even physical harm, it is obvious that these people are now rich and UK wants to take a piece of that money. Think about it, wouldn't you want two people with over 3 billion dollars in their pockets to come to your nation, live there, spend there, when they spend their money others in your nation earn money, and they pay taxes as well so basically all around as long as they live there that 3+ billion dollars will slowly go into UK economy.

So I think it is not about white collar crime, it is not about deportation, it is not about keeping someone safe from physical harm, UK doesn't care about any of that, they only care about money that they could make from these two. I still can't believe they managed to steal this much money, it is a shock to me that they were even capable of doing something this large so easily.
