Romelu Lukaku had a bad season, I agree with you that maybe if he doesn't play well it will make Chelsea and Inter Milan not want him anymore. Chelsea loaned Lukaku to another team in the hope that he would find his best game again, but the opposite happened, he still hasn't been able to give his best performance this season. So I wouldn't be surprised to see him join a smaller team eventually.
Lukaku is having a hard time right now. When you change clubs and it doesn't work out, that's bad already. But when you return to the club where everything used to be perfect and you find yourself sitting on the bench again because you can't deliver, that is even worse. Not only for the moment, but also for future negotiations with other clubs. I doubt that he is able to work his way out at Inter. But will he find another great club that is now willing to sign him? It's precarious for him and Summer will show what's possible for the last years of his career.

I think he understands that he's not going to be able to perform as he did in his prime for the bigger clubs. So he will surely sacrifice a little bit of salary if he wants to stay. But at the same time, if he does actually understand that he will not perform well for the bigger clubs, I believe he should move to lower-tier clubs. In that way, he will still be able to get paid handsomely and he will also not have to worry about being the second pick for the team. And I believe he should choose the second option.

The performance of England's batsmen on such a pitch impressed me. The pitch was not batting-friendly. Even then, the England team scored 326 runs. England's collection was only 40 runs in the first 10 overs. 1 wicket was lost. England's collection in the last 20 overs was 169 runs. They collected more than 8 per over. After England scored more than 300 I was sure Bangladesh was going to lose this match. Bangladeshi batsmen do not have the ability to collect more than 300 on such a bowling-friendly pitch. The performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is already very erratic. They lost 2 wickets in the first over and fell behind at the beginning of the innings. Liton Das has lost form. His performance was poor in both matches. But today Shakib's performance was good enough.
Here I noticed that when the England team was batting, it seemed as batting friendly pitch but when the Bangladesh team was batting it seemed like a bowling pitch again. Basically the credit for the England bowlers. Sam Curran has given a special match to the England team. At the same time, Saqib Mahmood did not get any wicket, but he also made a great contribution. The two bowlers kept the Bangladesh team's run. The two bowlers consistently kept the Bangladesh team in a massive pressure. In conclusion, it can be said that good batting and bowling can be the arm by which any adverse conditions can be conquered.

Basically, Bangladesh did not play well at all. There is no excuse for Bangladesh to perform badly on the same pitch in which the England players are scoring freely. It's just a bad performance from Bangladesh, nothing else. If Bangladesh was able to perform better, they could get a lot closer to the target. Let's just hope that Bangladesh will be able to avoid the whitewash.

The biggest concern for Bangladesh is that most of the time the top order, especially the openers have failed Bangladesh. They have to fix that problem immediately.

Both are entirely different, you can understand simply like this, Bitcoin is like gold and NFT, and altcoins...are shitcoin.
Bitcoin is thousands of times more secure than NFT. You are a newbie, keep continuing to learn the basic things and do not rush to invest, and never invest with someone's advice from social networks. Always do research and make decisions yourself, do not believe in anyone in this market. As a newbie focusing on Bitcoin, it's safe for you.

bitcoin and education.
If this post is not permitted to be here please help me forward it.

I want to ask a little question here because I don't won't to be a victim of a big loss.
Now that I have not invested in bitcoin because I haven't learned much about bitcoin investment based on the situation in my locality, I want to know the right answer to my question.
My question is can someone who is not well educated (secondary school graduate) understand the statistics of bitcoin investment or Bitcoin trading?

Everyone's situation is different, and it's not your fault for not being well educated. If you go looking for a job at a company, it's really a loss for you when you just graduated from secondary school. But with bitcoin investing, it is possible, and you will be treated equally as everyone else in the market. Bitcoin is for everyone, anyone can invest in bitcoin, as long as you know what you are doing and what to do when investing in bitcoin.
1025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 03, 2023, 06:02:35 PM
Both Dortmund and Leipzig are in good form. The Leipzig team is only 4 points behind Dortmund. And a win for Leipzig in today's match will see them move up to third place in the table. And if Dortmund wins, the team will go top of the table. So the match is very important for both. Dortmund seems to be the favorite over Leipzig.
However, Dortmund will play against Chelsea in the Champions League next week. If their goal is to perform well in the Champions League, then Dortmund will probably not give a full effort in this match.
Even Dortmund will play against Chelsea next week they will not focus for now on the Champions League game because its to important today .
They will play with all the and the best players they have today against Leipzig and try to win that game at home .
There is enough time for them to recover from the todays match to the next week game.
I think that Dortmund will win about Leipzig today at home with 2 : 1 .

Dortmund is going to give more importance to this match instead of giving more importance to the match of the Champions League. Because Dortmund is currently performing really well in Bundesliga. Dortmund also potentially has the chance of winning the Bundesliga title this season. They have the same points as Bayern Munich. Winning this match is going to mean Dortmund is the first placed team in the table. Of course Bayern Munich will probably win the next match as well.

Anyway, I think Dortmund is going to win today. My prediction is that the score is going to be 1-0 in favor of Dortmund.

Team Bangladesh Playing the worst game against England. This is their home ground and they showing terrible performance. Once again Liton Das failed to contribute to the team. Sam Curran And Adil Rashid bowling so well. Both already got three wickets each. Sam Curran still has five more overs to bowl. Bangladesh Struggling in their backyard.
They were famous for their Mirpur stadium. They always take home advantage and make a spin-friendly pitch. Seems like nothing working perfectly this time. They get some early wickets and then failed to keep the pressure ON. They lost some early wickets in batting and failed to fight back. Bad luck Team Bangladesh. Congratulations England!
The team depending on specific players is the reason for the failure. Every player needs to be well prepared and take responsibility when someone fail to perform. The team seems to play against England after the winning series against India. The team have lost the match at a big difference of 132 runs. Being on the home ground, Bangladesh should have the advantage. The Bangladesh team have failed to make use of it. It was really a perfect plan an execution from team England. Jason Roy started slowly and Jos Butler ended it well helping to reach good target.

Bangladesh missed a major trick in this match. They should have batted first. As far as I remember, they have a good record of bowling second on this ground as well. The pitch gets slower with time on this ground. I don't understand the decision at all. And Bangladesh have already lost the match. They have also lost very badly.

I simply do not understand one thing. On the same pitch where the top order of Bangladesh batsmen are unable to score runs, how does Taskin Ahmed score freely on that same pitch? Let alone England scoring freely. The Bangladesh team is just not in a favorable position right now. And honestly, I don't expect too much from them in the upcoming World Cup.

Politics is just so dirty and with most belief, it's opposite with what's indicated in the title. It's making those in the position and even their sons and daughters to have that kind of power they feel from their fathers or mothers who's in the authority.

Let's say yeah that it can humble anyone but only when the time of election has come. They feel like they've been the best public servants of all time and I'm speaking about the corrupt ones because I still have that hope in some good countries, they've got the best leaders that has political will and the heart to serve their people and those are the actual humble ones.

I have to agree with you on this, politics is the dirtiest thing in this world, people who do politics have nothing they dare not do, they are willing to give up everything to get power, even to destroy their loved ones. I don't know if there are any countries in the world that have good politicians who always sacrifice and think for the people, but what I see in my country or neighboring countries, it's all garbage, dirty the most I've ever seen.
1028  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Risks to take in marriage on: March 03, 2023, 09:25:06 AM
All I know is that marriage is hard and we should not go into it if we know that we do not have the power or the strength to endure as much as we can. Everything about marriage is endurance so we need to make sure that we are fully ready to accept whatever we see before we think of going into marriage. Some persons enters marriage without you understanding.

This is wrong. Marriage is not a war, you do not need power or strength to be in a marriage, unless you are planning to kill.yoir spouse.
Again, marriage is not all about endurance. Don't go into marriage to endure rubbish. When your spouse puts up annoying character, call their attention to it and forgive them. When they do same again, forgive them for the second time and warn them that it will be the last. If they try it again, consider divorce. The most important thing to you should be peace of mind and not to endure rubbish in the name of marriage.

Marriage only takes place when both agree to love and care for each other for the rest of their lives, everything is voluntary, not forced, marriage is something sacred, not to endure rubbish. In life, we will face a lot of troubles, and in marriage too. Whether the marriage is stable or not is due to our behavior, not anyone's fault, if the marriage fails, don't rush to blame your partner, but try to think that you have also fulfilled your obligations.

What a Fantastic Marketing Strategy by BCCI!

WPL will commence on the 4th of March and tickets are now available for purchase on the BookMyShow app. Tickets are priced at INR 100 & INR 400 respectively. What made me my day was when I saw on the app that tickets are free for women on a first come first basis. Do you think any other board can beat this marketing strategy?
[img..]https://i.imgur.com/tdXJEfMl.jpg[/img]
I guess it's fair to say that BCCI knows how to present and sell a product.

This strategy is going to be really hard to beat. And the BCCI knows very well that there will be a lot less spectators on the ground to see women playing cricket. So making a certain number of tickets free is going to ensure that there are of course people on the ground watching the games. This way the tickets are also going to be sold out. I mean the tickets would have been sold out anyway in my opinion. But this "free" idea is going to keep people more interested.

I remember we also discussed this news many times last year, and so far, there has been no bitcoin release for Mt.Gox investors. I'm not their victim, but I really hope that the victims of that year get back some of their property, they don't have to give it all back, but just a small part is enough to be happy. Even if it causes bitcoin to be dumped, I still hope it happens. But I doubt that will ever happen, they are just trying to buy time, making it difficult for the victim to give up hope voluntarily.
1031  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin be trusted? on: March 02, 2023, 10:29:24 AM
A friend of mine came to me and we were having a conversation and I was trying to introduce he to the forum,but he turns out that I was asked if I really trust and believe in bitcoin it will never crash like other cypto industry.

I want know if it will not crash and I need help to convince him about it that it will not crash because am a beginner and I haven't know much about bitcoin so I guess been here I will fine help to assist my friend to join the forum.
I don't think you should force them to join this forum to know all about bitcoin, I know your intentions are very good in this regard but it is not your obligation to insist that your beliefs are correct in this context. The thing that I think is the smartest in telling him you have to have a better life than those who reject bitcoin in him, I think they will come naturally and be interested in what you do in your process so that it reaches the point that person expects.
Speaking of context, everything will definitely have a crash, be it stocks, precious metals and others and as we can see bitcoin crashes several times and in the end it returns to its highest position and even makes the latest ATH in each of its cycles.
Perhaps, it was wrong to urge someone to learn about Bitcoin but rather wait until such time comes for their interest. Besides, it was hard to educate a person who already has been negative about Bitcoin and much harder to convince to trust Bitcoin if they already suffered losses or got scammed. This is the reason why I don't talk about Bitcoin to any of my friends unless they will ask, unless they have curiosity and are willing to listen.

For those who already have a negative view of bitcoin and try to explain it to them, we are just wasting our precious time with no good results.
Me too, I don't have time to explain bitcoin to someone and find a way to make them believe in bitcoin. It's not our duty, it's their chance, but if they don't take it, it's their fault.

Better way to explain to them is to show them the results you get when you invest in bitcoin, they will know what to do, and you don't need to explain too much.

Doubtful about Nepal. Their cricket has been on a downward slide ever since 2015. And the reason is very clear. Back in 2015, the ICC reduced funding for the associates by as much as 80%. It didn't had an impact on "rich" boards such as the United Arab Emirates and Oman, but the "poorer" boards such as Nepal were severely impacted. On top of that the ICC implemented a performance based funding system. Teams like the United Arab Emirates immediately recruited former first class players from India and Pakistan. Nepal couldn't afford to do that and they started losing matches. So this 80% decrease became 90% for them.

And I don't have much hope for the next (2024-31) funding cycle as well. The BCCI is demanding a higher share from the ICC, and this may result in further reductions to the associates. On top of that, the BCCI has formed a cabal with middle-east boards such as the United Arab Emirates and Oman, and they are trying to weaken the other associate nations.

The problem is that Nepal is not getting to play regularly. And if they are not playing regularly, they will not be able to perform well when it comes to showing people that they can win against bigger opponents. ICC generally does not have too much time allotted for associate nations in 1 calendar year. And I think the lack of play is eventually degrading the performance of the associate nations.

After that comes the funding part. Sometimes I feel like ICC does not even care about the associate nations. Because the funding was going to be very different for the associate nations. Nepal has a lot of talented players. My personal opinion is that ICC can increase the funding for them. But then they will have to increase funding for all the associate nations.

Liton Das lost his wicket early today with just seven runs for which Bangladesh finished the game in tougher conditions. Even though Bangladesh played badly, their run rate was not lower than England.  If Bangladesh could have played the remaining 16 balls, England would have been under a lot of pressure and maybe England would not have beaten Bangladesh today, but because of the loss of every wicket in Bangladesh, England had a huge opportunity to beat Bangladesh and they took advantage of their chances.
Today could have been a winning day for Bangladesh if a few cricketers could have scored a few more runs. Especially those who are expected to do well like Litton Das, Sakib Al Hasan, Afif Hossain and Mehidy Hasan Miraz none of them could reach double figures. Which was really a big disaster for them. However, David Malan, the player of the England team, has to be praised. who returned from injury and played a key role to win against the opposition in Bangladesh. Although the team lost 7 wickets, he remained unbeaten. He gave a glorious innings for the England team.

David Malan was the only player who was able to play decently in this match. Apart from him alone, it was a match of bowlers. Both England and Bangladesh bowlers did very well. But I have to say I was disappointed with the batting performance of Bangladesh.

At certain times it really felt like Bangladesh give their wickets away for nothing. Shanto is often trolled for bad performance. Today he had a good chance of proving everyone wrong by getting a century. He was also looking good to get a century. But then he played a really bad shot. Overall, good performance from David Malan, and congratulations to England.

Lazio who is in fifth place, has a mission to break into the top four, a win over Sampdoria can encourage Lazio players to keep their chances of qualifying for the Champions League. Sampdoria has only won two draws and lost three times in the last five matches which is not a match for Lazio, the difference in quality is very visible between the two. Lazio must not waste the chance to win when they face the teams who live in the Relegation Zone.
Lazio have to fight for the top 4, at least they have a chance to move up before Roma's match against Cremonese tomorrow. Since Mourinho is very much looking forward to a place in the Champions League, he already misses this tournament and they have a very good chance to achieve this. It is still important for Lazio to win because Atalanta is very close, and Sampdoria is a weak opponent (except for the recent draw with Inter).
While there is still a chance for Lazio to compete for fourth place, of course, Lazio must be able to consistently earn points in every match. Because in my view, Lazio and Roma have qualities that are not much different, so of course Lazio can compete with Roma in the hunt for fourth place in the Serie A standings.
Although there is still Atalanta who also has a chance for that place but one thing is for sure, they have the ability to finish in the top six and that is good enough for them.

Lazio has been greatly inconsistent. At this point, I think they actually do not probably even deserve to finish in the top 4. Of course, they are going to win the next match against Sampdoria. Because Sampdoria is in the relegation zone right now.

It has been a very hard season for them. And I do not expect them to win against a team that is in the top 5. So I believe that Lazio will be able to win the next match. But after that, they might start being inconsistent again. So at this moment, it is hard to trust Lazio with anything.

Big blow for MI and the Indian team as Jasprit Bhumrah may not be fit to play this year's IPL and the upcoming ODIWC. It seems his back injury appears to be more serious than it initially appeared. I am not concerned about the ODIWC as India has quality bowlers who can replace him but MI might have a tough time in this season of IPL. He has not played any cricket for the last 5 months and with his injury getting worse I think he would not be able to come back anytime soon. Such a situation for a good bowler like him can dent his career path as it gives other Indian bowling talents an opportunity to grab his position. We all know how competitive Indian cricket has become and the amount of talent pool India has in cricket.
Even this all is in early stages but still big below for the Indian cricket because I have feeling back injury is never been good we already lost two big bowlers due to this injury in last few decades like Ian Bishop of West Indies and Mohammad Zahid of Pakistan these two were also lethal bowlers and lost their careers with this same back injury very quickly once it started, it's not going to allow bowler for having good time in this game hopefully now with the better treatment and modern ways of treatment things could be turn positive for the Jasprit Bhumrah.

As we all know he is out of game for nearly 6 months and now things are going the worst day by day which is also not ideal situation but Indian team is now having luxury of few quality bowlers even this all is still in early stages, and they need services of Jasprit Bhumrah which is premier bowler and having good results for the Team India.

Bumrah has been away for quite a long time because of injuries. And he is still facing problems with injuries. It is actually sad to see that he is not being able to recover. Another big concerned is that even if he does come back being fit, is his performance going to be the same as before? 

I think he is injuries are going to have a big effect on his career. I am quite certain that his performance is not going to be as good as before when he comes back from injury. And something tells me it is going to take a long time for him to recover properly. But of course, I want him to get better very soon. Because of him not being in the Indian squad, the Indian team is also suffering a little on the fast-bowling side.

Liverpool's pursuit of Borussia Dortmund and England midfielder Jude Bellingham will not be harmed by their struggles this season as Champions League qualification is not a deal-breaker for the 19-year-old. I'm not so sure about that. Every player wants to play in the Champions League and fight for trophies. I believe that there is still a greater chance that Bellingham will go to Real as a replacement for the aging Modric.
Liverpool have very obvious midfield problems but despite this they have been very slow in the winter transfer window. I really wouldn't want to be in Klopp's shoes. They're acting like they're trying to make Klopp helpless right now. Even Liverpool signing Jude Bellingham may not be enough. I think they need to catch up with the competition and they need to sign a few more quality midfielders to achieve that.
The earlier Liverpool bid for Jude Bellingham for next summer the better, currently the present crop of midfielders in Liverpool squad had become shadow of former self the likes of Henderson, Milner, Keita and Tiago Alcāntara had dropped form and had not been performing well, their midfield needed reinforcement, however Klopp should work hard towards clinching a top 4 spot in EPL because that would be one of the conditions that would lure Jude Bellingham to the club, that is playing in UCL will be guaranteed next season else he might opt for another club which is likely Real Madrid.

I actually do not think that Jude Bellingham is coming to Liverpool. A big reason for that is going to be the bad performance of Liverpool. Especially when he is in a team like Dortmund which is at the top of the table. This feels like it is going to be a downgrade for Jude Bellingham if he does decide to move to Liverpool at this moment.


Croatia midfielder Marcelo Brozovic could be sold by Inter Milan in the summer, with Barcelona, Chelsea and Real Madrid interested in the 30-year-old. It seems to me that Inter is making the same mistake as they did with Perisic, and that they will only be aware of the kind of player they let in later. For Brozovic, this is the last chance to make a career transfer.

I hope they have a player ready in place of Marcelo Brozovich. Otherwise, they will be making a mistake. There is a reason why teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid are trying to get him in.

First and foremost obstacles in making money is that even having a degree individuals cannot find a job. There are numerous individuals who are jobless they cannot complete the requirements of life. So for such purpose lots of people are entering the cryptocurrency technology for trading and earn money.


A degree only gives you preference and more opportunities than someone without a degree, it cannot guarantee you a job. If you're fresh out of school and don't have any experience, you can't beat someone with a degree and experience. Today, I see young people are quite proud, when they just graduated from school, they have no experience but always demand a high salary. It is also a cause of their mass unemployment. Then they look for get-rich-quick paths, and crypto is an option, but you can see that most newbies lose because they are too greedy.

I think Tottenham can win against Chelsea this year.  It is very unlikely that Tottenham will ever find such a bad Chelsea again.  They're doing pretty well this year, too.  Whatever the outcome, I'm sure it will be a good match.  My guess is Tottenham is the team that is close to winning.
Chelsea can finish Tottenham with a win even though many think Chelsea's poor play will be continued by Graham Potter in the match later.
In my opinion, Chelsea's good play will be seen starting this week at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the London derby.
Havertz, Mount and Felix will be the players who will overwhelm the Spurs and hold the Blues' attack especially Sterling is certainly able to be played by Potter which will make me believe that Chelsea will get points.

Chelsea is in the 10th position of the table and on the other hand, and Tottenham is in the fourth. And even though Tottenham is not the most consistent performer in the English Premier League right now, I think they are still better than Chelsea. The match is ongoing 44 minutes have been played. I believe Tottenham should be able to win. I strongly believe that because the match is going to be played in Tottenham Hotspurs stadium. So of course the advantage of home conditions is going to be with spurs. 

On the other hand, I do not have anything to support Chelsea in this match. They do not have the performance. It is going to be actually a big surprise if Chelsea somehow wins this match.

Paris St-Germain and Argentina forward Lionel Messi is considering returning to his boyhood club Newell's Old Boys. After all the possibilities that have been mentioned, from extending the contract with PSG to returning to Barcelona, this is really a big surprise. What Messi will decide in the end?
Chelsea and Portugal forward Joao Felix, 23, wants to make his loan deal from Atletico Madrid permanent this summer. Did Felix finally find the right club for him and his style of play?
Al Nassr have made contact with the representatives of Paris St-Germain and former Spain defender Sergio Ramos over a potential move before next season. Will Arab owners get another big European star after Ronaldo? Saudi Arabia, it seems, is becoming a rich retirement destination for old European stars  Grin
France forward Marcus Thuram, who will be out of contract at Borussia Monchengladbach in the summer, has been offered to Barcelona, while Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Manchester United and PSG have also been linked with the 25-year-old. Many clubs want Thuram, and what will he decide in the end?
Brazil could bring in ex-Spain and Barcelona manager Luis Enrique to replace Tite rather than Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti. When will this saga finally end and who will become the new coach of Brazil?
I consider Messi joining his boyhood club Newell's old boys as a good gesture, trying to give back to the club for the good years of mentorship and coaching from a young stage of academy but as of now there are no concrete or factual decision made by the player concerning his future after PSG.

Joao Felix seems to be enjoying life at Chelsea already and it's already expected that he will favor a move to stay at Chelsea permanently. It is very possible that Sergio Ramos may move abroad after PSG, it could also be a move to Saudi Arabia.

Actually, Lionel Messi is still able to perform at the top. Personally, I would like to see him one more year at the top. But if he decides to give rest to his body, that's up to him.

Joao Felix should go to Atletico Madrid in my opinion. It is not going to be a good idea to stay in Chelsea. He is already not playing very well in Chelsea. And at the same time, Chelsea is going through a big overhaul. I think it will be the right decision to move to Atletico Madrid.

@Daniel91, Brazil is a young squad. I think with that squad Carlo Ancelotti could have been the better one.

The performance of these associates are below average according to standards of ICC and other teams those are competing in tournaments. UAE and  Namibia should work on their batting as scoring 91 and 166 in ODI is really bad.
When these teams get regular matches, the performance will be better. UAE and Namibia have scored 91 and 166 in the last two matches. Earlier the same teams have scored runs above 300 and 200 in different matches. These teams get continuous matches for few months and have break for long. This gap isn't good with cricket and particularly with ODI players won't be able to maintain their consistent play. Few matches were really exceptional as unexpected results came out due to responsible play from bottom order players.

The problem is if they get continuous matches against bigger opponents, the match is going to be one sided and people are not going to want to watch that. And that is bad for business for the ICC. Probably that's a big reason why they are not getting regular matches.

On top of that, what you said is also a very valid reason. If the associate teams are playing against bigger opponents, the quality of matches is going to drop significantly. So the spectators are probably not going to want to see those matches. So eventually the revenue is not going to be good enough.
