I doubt Dembele would regret going to PSG. He wants the move and is happy to make the move. Besides the fact that he is prone to injury, he expressed that the way he was being treated by the fans and most players, probably because he's more toned in complexion contributed to him making the move. He also feels alone and more scared to be himself.
 He will feel more relaxed at home with PSG, and am hoping he regains control of his health, fitness, confidence and career.
Dembele is a French player who in fact has a tendency to be happier when he mixes with other French players at PSG. After all he is happy to play for one of the best teams in Ligue 1, but money is also a factor in why Dembele wants to play there.

So far Dembele has won 3 La Liga titles with Barcelona, ​​2 times Spanish Cup winner, and 2 times Spanish Super Cup winner. He still failed to win the Champions League title, but he had a good career at Barcelona. Dembele is a player who would do well alongside Luis Enrique at PSG, but it is true that he tends to get injured a lot.

No one doubts that Andre Onana is a good goalkeeper. His career shows it. But what worries me is that the Manchester United defense makes very simple mistakes. Andre Onana can react harshly to simple mistakes made by the defense. After all, someone has to react that way anyway. You cannot expect high performance from your goalkeeper when the defender makes too many mistakes.

If you want to get a high performance out of Andre Onana, the technical team should make the defenders more careful or sign new players.
To be honest, I doubt André Onana if you say he is one of the best goalkeepers out there. André Onana is an experienced player in several competitions, but his performance will not be as good as De Gea in my opinion. Ten Hag may have reasons why he really wants to bring André Onana to Old Trafford, but I doubt he will fit in with what was planned.

André Onana has indeed proven his quality with Inter last season, but in the Premier League it is definitely different. I doubt it, but I think André Onana will try his best and gain more confidence in his new team in the future.

I definitely agree with this. Despite the growing popularity of Bitcoin, not everyone is jumping on with the cryptocurrency trend because, to begin with, it is not made to please and encourage everyone. Some still remain skeptical about its long-term viability, which is okay. Whatever the reason, it's clear that not everyone is ready to embrace the digital future just yet.
Of course, not everyone agrees and will accept bitcoins as currency. Bitcoin is for everyone, but not everyone is for bitcoin. In fact we cannot deny that a large part of the crypto community on this forum also does not have bitcoins in their portfolio, while they tend to own altcoins regardless of the reason for having them.

The gradual growth in adoption may encourage people to use bitcoin as a means of payment, but I don't think bitcoin is a mainstream currency that will be adopted en masse around the world. I think bitcoin is an alternative currency worth considering, but as said bitcoin is not for everyone to pay for but bitcoin have become an investment asset to generate profits.

Barcelona only got back to good last season because Real Madrid wasn't so consistent in winning matches, whereas previous seasons Barcelona didn't look as good as last season. So in general Barcelona are just trying to look good and that was what Barcelona managed to get last season, but for next season Barcelona still has to fight hard to be able to look even better because Real Madrid will also try to be better in La Liga and so also at UCL.
I agree with your opinion, so it's true that the rivalry of the two best teams from La Liga next season will be eagerly awaited. Real Madrid have lost their best striker to the Arab Pro League, so they will have problems to sort out if they are to win the title next season. While Barcelona has a many strikers, so I don't really think about their performance dropping despite losing Dembele to PSG.

The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be highly anticipated because Real Madrid has yet to find a striker to replace Benzema. Although Real Madrid have signed Joselu so far, he does not appear to be the right answer to replace Benzema well. So I think next season is a good opportunity for Lewandowski if he still wants to maintain his top scoring streak in La Liga.

I think PSG will keep Mbappe for one more season. Because leaving him at this moment will surely weaken the team's attack. They hope that both Neymar and Mbappe will do something amazing in the Champions League this season.
Of course, Kylian Mbappe will stay for one more season considering that is the duration of his remaining contract. But if PSG don't sell him before the end of next season, then obviously PSG will lose Kylian Mbappe for free. Given that, I think PSG will make some efforts to be able to sell Kylian Mbappe before the end of his contract so they will get the money to buy a replacement.

Regarding Neymar, he still has a contract with PSG until June 30, 2025. Neymar has two more seasons at PSG, but Neymar also has the potential to leave for another team before his contract expires. These two attackers are needed by PSG next season, but PSG will soon face the reality of losing their two best players in the next 1 to 2 seasons.

Simply because Manchester City won a treble title last season, will it make them repeat the same by next season by making it 4 titles instead to prove their supremacy over all the league match they are involved in? Manchester City is undoubtedly a talented football team, but we shouldn't assume that just because they shocked the world by winning a treble trophy, all the league titles are now theirs. Has Manchester United, who won the treble trophies years ago, done it again? Having said that, I don't believe Manchester City will have another season as successful as the previous one in terms of winning a treble trophy in a season.
If I understand the ShowOff post correctly then I think the point is that Manchester City has a great chance to defend the Premier League title for 4 consecutive times after they managed to win it 3 times in a row in the last 3 seasons. I think so too, but of course it's different when it comes to the Champions League.

It is always difficult to determine who will win the Champions League title, especially when the season has not started. Manchester City certainly have a chance to repeat their success, but to defend the Champions League title then I think it is the most difficult challenge for any coach. Pep Guardiola is expected to keep his chances good, but all the teams that will be competing in the Champions League will also be pushing for the title.

Don't just look at Arsenal and Manchester City for next season because the other teams, especially the favourites, will be their rivals too. As we have seen with Chelsea and others, Chelsea and other big teams have had changes in the game and also the players and it will be great competition and a strong force in all competitions for the big teams.
Manchester City is indeed a very good team from all sides, but no matter how good the team is, over time their games and tactics will be easy for other teams to read.
At least Manchester City can still be expected as one of the best favorites for the next few seasons. I tend to say it's because of Pep Guardiola's influence, but if Manchester City are no longer coached by Pep Guardiola then I'm sure they won't be as strong as they are now.

I agree that other teams will compete as best they can for the title, but because of the quality and form of Manchester City so far I don't think the other teams have a big chance to win the title. Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United will try their best for themselves, but we have already seen how great Manchester City under Pep Guardiola where is he have dominated the Premier League.

Not only in gambling, losing in anything in life is painful, whether it's a sports match that you are a part of, a competition that you were participating in, a gaming battle with a friend, or anything in general, when you win, you feel proud and happy, but when you lose, you feel remorse and sadness, but that is a part of our life and we will have to go through that throughout our lives until we die because there will always be challenges, sometimes we win, sometimes we lose.

When we talk about gambling, those who gamble to get profit would feel more remorse after losing because they see their source of earning money fading away, and those who gamble just for fun might not feel good if they lose but they won't have the same amount of remorse as the ones I mentioned above.
Because there are several known types of gamblers, of course there will be regrets among them. I agree that if they gamble for money then the regret of losing is far greater than those who gamble for fun. But really, it's hard to get gamblers to just gamble for the fun of it, unless they have a busy schedule throughout the week.

I regret losing not because I lost money, but only when I was still not satisfied enjoying the session I was playing. About winning and losing, it is a part of gambling that every gambler will experience.

The price and salary are not commensurate with the contribution made, it makes sense that Chelsea are reluctant to make the status of the player from Portugal permanent at Stamford Bridge. Barcelona can make Jao Felix another option if Ousmane Dembele departure to PSG is realized, moreover Felix has expressed his desire to play for Barcelona. I think the process will run smoothly but the final decision depends on the price agreement.

The latest news says that Xavi is not interested in recruiting Felix this summer, maybe this is a matter of the very high price.
Xavi's main focus if Dembele goes to PSG is that he wants to sign a good right-back. Some of the money from the sale of Dembele will go towards fulfilling that wish, so I don't think Xavi would be considering Felix so soon.

So far, news has spread that Barcelona is considering recruiting João Cancelo, who in the end was not made permanent by Bayern Munich. João Cancelo is one Xavi might have in mind as a defender, so it's certainly going to be well worth the effort. If Cancelo really joins Barcelona, ​​then clearly Barcelona seems ready enough to perform well in the Champions League next season.

Manchester City managed to win two titles last season and I expect their performance to continue in this season as their coach is one of the best experienced people. I think Manchester City will do great this season under his leadership.
Where were you last season so you fail to know some of the important things Manchester City have achieved last season?
I think you are not a football fan if you don't know exactly how many titles Manchester City won last season, but I can tell you they have won a treble winner.

Next time get the right reference before you express your opinion so that your post is not misleading. Of course this is just a sage advice for you, but at least it will help you post something properly.

I have mixed feelings to say especially about the best indicator that I have adopted so far.
Sometimes you need to make some adjustments for one reason or another, but in essence the best indicator to adopt for investing in bitcoin is when it has lost as much value as it did in the last year. You need to consider the bearish market as one of the indicators, but technically, of course you can use several indicators for monthly TF.

For times like these I think the best advice is something like this; Prepare your budget, do an analysis, buy - withdraw your bitcoin to a non-custodial wallet - be a holder for the long term (at least until a new ATH appears).

If Chelsea is successful in acquiring Mbappe, it will be a significant increase to their chances of winning the Premier League or possibly moving up to the top of the premier league standings at the conclusion of the 2023/2024 season.
Chelsea has spent a lot of money to sign many players. In your opinion, wouldn't Chelsea be threatened by FFP if they forced their desire to sign Kylian Mbappe, who is known to have a high transfer value from PSG?

Chelsea players have shown mastery of each other's playing formation during their whole preseason tournament. Both their attacking force and defense were strong. None of the Chelsea players that took part in the preseason match performed poorly, even though it was a preseason that shouldn't be taken seriously. They all have victory in mind to deliver more than expected of them. With the few days remaining to the start of the premier league, I believe Chelsea would be at its peak
Chelsea have had good form during pre-season, but that will never be the best yardstick to say they will be top of the Premier League table next season. I agree Chelsea are ready for the new season, but they don't have much confidence to lead the Premier League table from day one.

I wonder if Pochettino will be able to beat Liverpool in his first match in the Premier League with Chelsea or if Pochettino has to lose to Liverpool. Basically Liverpool have a high probability of winning the game, but who knows.

With the current squad and seeing Mikel Arteta's persistence in raising Arsenal's spirits, I'm sure Arsenal can compete with big clubs or favorite clubs to fight for the title in the Champions League next season.
and this question is the same as Manchester City before who had never won the Champions League before which they won in the end, and for Arsenal why can't it be like that. And Arsenal are currently a team that should not be underestimated in the Premier League and also the Champions League.
You should have answers to your questions about Arsenal in the Champions League, but in my opinion Arsenal is not a team that has a lot of experience in the Champions League compared to Manchester City and its coach.

Pep Guardiola and Arteta are different, they have also never been the same in terms of strategy and skill in managing the game, but Arteta and Arsenal cannot be completely underestimated about their chances in the Champions League. After all, Arsenal have never seemed to reach the final in their participation in the Champions League so far, AFAIK, but Manchester City succeeded in the second final and win titles after being thwarted by Chelsea while coached by Tuchel.

I don't think it's a wise decision to leave work just to focus on Bitcoin, because Bitcoin doesn't require someone to always be on standby in front of a computer to track its movements every second, minute or even hour. The joy that adorns the faces of those who have succeeded in reaping profits from Bitcoin trading or investment activities can grace yours too.
I know it's a common excuse, but most people have said it from time to time. But I don't think it's always wrong to leave your main job to build a more profitable business if you make a large profit from trading or investing.

After all, you don't always have to waste opportunities in life to try something that you think is better financially. Sometimes we need to sacrifice something to get something bigger even though the results are not necessarily as we expect. Then from that, if you are not properly appreciated by government policies or your boss at your place of work including disproportionate salary, then I think the decision to try a new life challenge is not a bad decision.

The players signed are good and experienced players who I believe will be good replacements for the departed players. Mac Allister is already premier league proven and can fit in immediately to his new club and playing style. All top premier league teams are working actively in the market this summer to strengthen their sides for the coming and I am just so anxious to see how all 20 teams will fare this season.
Chelsea, Newcastle, Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal look interesting to look forward to. I'd like to see how the team does next season after their performances last term, but what's interesting here is Arsenal and Newcastle. Arsenal and Newcastle surprised last season with the consistency of their performances, so of course I'm really curious about how they maintain their form next season when other teams start to try to get back to their best.

Manchester City are the favorites which I basically no longer have any doubts about. But several other top teams like those mentioned above deserve to provide tough competition instead of letting Manchester City go fast without any obstacles.

I think Kylian Mbappe has secretly signed with Real Madrid. There is good reason to think so.
Really, how is that possible?
I'm not sure you have a good reason for that, but verbal consent is possible. So far, Kylian Mbappe is still under contract with PSG until the end of the season, so it is very unlikely that Real Madrid will offer Mbappe a contract (secretly) while he will still be playing with PSG next season.

I know Kylian Mbappe is interested in playing for Real Madrid, so is Real Madrid for him. The two have been linked for several seasons but no agreement has been reached as of now. PSG will obviously give heavy sanctions to Mbappe if he is found to have breached his contract, Real Madrid could also be sued for such breach if true.

Yes, that's what would happen if access to the forum is banned by the government of that country. Users will know how to handle the situation through the shared application, so there's no need to worry. The government aims to combat gambling advertisements on social media applications to protect minors from exposure, but limiting gambling itself is unlikely because it generates significant revenue that the country needs to manage its affairs.
Governments are right to have concerns about gambling advertising if the impact it has has has had on so many young generations. Of course I'd be happy to say it makes sense to do so if the ad is a direct ad on a sporting event, but maybe not about a forum ad.

After all, the government has blocked many online casinos so far so some of the gamblers will have limited access to them. Even if they wanted to bypass that restrictions then obviously they would have to use TOR or a VPN which in the end would very likely be the start of the problem of why some accounts and winnings were frozen.

He is going to be 29 years old and he has all the potential that he need to be one of the top players in City so there is actual zero sense for him to move to Saudi League. I mean he gets huge paycheck from City and he will most likely win bunch of trophies alongside with City if Pep still stays with the team so yeah its a no brainer for him to move to Saudi this year
Bernardo Silva will not leave Manchester City next season, I think that's normal for him. As well as PSG, I think Bernardo Silva would also be interested in playing for Barcelona and it's true that he won't be going to the Arab Pro League anytime soon. Bernardo Silva's performance is still very much worth playing a few more seasons in Europe even though the Saudi team will make a high bid for him, but I hope he will reject it for the next 3-4 seasons.

I think Silva will only join PSG or Barcelona if he wants to leave Manchester City. Xavi and Luis Enrique about want him because of his good playing style, but I tend to think Barcelona will get him.

Yes, it looks weird. Maybe Real wants to have an experienced striker for rotation, but for me the figure of Joselu looks absolutely random (why is exactly he), because we are talking about Real. And as far as I can tell, this signing happened even if Mbappe is bought this season, it is clearly part of a different plan than a temporary replacement for the top striker.
I also only believe that Joselu is an alternative choice for Ancelotti next season. It is likely that Ancelotti will change his game strategy where he will use 2 strikers who will be assisted by 1 attacking midfielder. The diamond style formation (4-1-2-1-2) or 4-3-1-2 is very likely to be adopted by Ancelotti where Vinicius and Rodrygo will play as strikers while Bellingham as an attacking midfielder.

Ancelotti has tried it in pre-season games, but of course not all of them are effective. This formation approach can also make Ancelotti have no difficulty in strategizing, of course that's because he has a lot of midfielder stock instead of a striker.

That Xavi Hernandez and Barcelona team has potential to win the League games but not enough to make them win the Champions League. They had the best defense last season, seeing the recent signings they will go far than we expect.
Arsenal has proper depth now they lacked that last season, and another club to keep an eye on is Manchester City they have all it takes to win the Champions League again. Barcelona will not be able the win the Champions League not this season.
I wouldn't say Barcelona are one of the favorites in the Champions League, but I think Xavi has built his squad with a good mentality and is ready to compete with any team. Indeed, they do not have expensive squad depth compared to several other Premier League teams, but Barcelona's performance and play can be expected to be a threat to anyone.

Xavi failed to guide Barcelona through to the last 16 last season, so that will really motivate him to do his best next season. The most realistic target for Barcelona is to qualify for the round of 16, but for the higher stages it depends on the form of the team and who they are up against.
