With all the strength possessed by Chelsea at this time, we can say Graham Potter will instruct all players to appear all out in order to get full points and be a worthy revenge for Fulham.
As you have said, Fulham are not a strong team in defense considering they have conceded 14 goals in away games so far.
They only bought some new players at very expensive cost but those players can not help them immediately because they just came to Stamford Bridge. Be realistic that those players can have better contributions for Chelsea after a few weeks but it is better for them after a long summer with months of training in Chelsea.

Initially they are players who are over valued and secondly they would have under perform because lack of adaption time in a new club and a new league. Chelsea don't actually become much stronger with those newcomers but with weakness and bad home-away form from Fullham, Chelsea will be able to win this match at their home stadium.

It is common knowledge that the two teams that will compete want to bring home the Champions League trophy. Let's see what Paris Saint Germain does to do that, yes they bring a lot of star players into the squad just to make them win this Champions League trophy. The task is not easy, even though they already have a star-studded squad they still have difficulty realizing what their dreams are. Let's see if they will be able to pull it off this season, or as usual end up empty-handed.
They are not lack of money, they have a lot of money but they have yet used it most efficiently. Buying too many attacking players and tried to use them in a very aggressive attacking squad but in defense, they did not have enough good players for those positions. So with lack of support for defense from attacking star players, their system is already weak in defense. With lack of world-class defensive players, the weakness becomes more serious which damages PSG power in general and reduce their chance in Champions League.

Many attacking star players can help a club have some big and nice wins but can not help a club to win trophies. Real Madrid and Galaticos 1.0 is an example of failure after Makelele was sold to Chelsea.

Yes, I know about the disallowed goal because Rudiger had fouled before scoring. But even though the difference in position is very large between these two teams, I had doubts that Real Madrid would have trouble scoring goals. However, all of that was answered when within 5 minutes of the second half they managed to score 2 quick goals and secure the victory at the same time.
There was a foul before that goal and caused it was rejected by the referee after taking VAR signal. However, the player made that foul is not Rudiger but Benzema who even got a yellow card with that situation.

In the match, Benzema missed one good key pass from Modric but he created two assists to Asensio and Vini Jr. as well as at least one key pass which was wasted by his team-mate too. The back heel of Benzema reminds me about a back heel from Guti to Benzema about 10 years ago.

Ethereum's upcoming upgrade, Shanghai, is said to happen on March 2023.
Did you see how Ethereum performed after the last upgrade The Merge?

I believe that Ethereum won't go ahead of Bitcoin and make its new all time high before Bitcoin can make its new all time high that is above $69,000. Ethereum as one of altcoins must follow Bitcoin in big bull runs and we will have to wait for Bitcoin bull run first.

Bitcoin won't make its new all time high before its next halving so let's be realistic about Ethereum performance after Shanghai upgrade.

On the hourly chart, bitcoin/USDT is trading at an important level. There are high chances of a breakdown and it could touch the nearest support at $22,600 for this week. Conversely, the $24,000 level was a major selling area.
Please skip all of these and focus on a better thing with long term vision. Your life will be more easily if you buy and hold your bitcoin a few years like 4 to 8 years and if best 12 years. 12 years mean about 3 full cycles that are more than enough for you to enjoy very big bull runs after 3 big block reward halvings.

If you hold your bitcoins like 4 years, you can start in middle of a big bull run and exit at a middle of a bear market. If you hold it for 12 years, you will have no chance to exit in middle of bear market at lower price than your entry price.

Buy and hold means doing that with your own fund, not borrow money from anyone or from any exchange (in Margin, Leverage or Future trading).

So I will make this simple. I am a long time VIP member with over $500,000 in bets on duelbits .
Recently when I was playing  on their site they did something very close to scamming so I told them that I thought they where scamming there customer and was closing my account . Before I closed my account I had a small balance left and wanted ti withdrawal . As I did this it was not much just 10.46$ they said they were going to keep my money and demanded kyc. Now this s after I have bet over 10k a week fir the last year . They got angry I called them out and then decided to demand kyc knowing I am closing my account after I withdrawal this small 10$ withdrawal.
Why did you try to continue to bet with $10.46 when your account was under Duelbits investigation already?
How did you make the $10.46 to $10k?

Do you smell something fishy here, not offend you but sorry, I have to ask these questions. You changed from want to withdraw $10.46 to bet and make it to $10k and want to withdraw $10k. If Duelbits already investigated your account when you submit a withdrawal request for $10.46, they will do the same for $10k.

I believe they have solid reasons to investigate your account when it has only $10.46 not $10k after that.

Anyway, let's wait for their representative reply about your case here or in support ticket.

They have that as an objective from quite some time now,they are fighting many years to win the Champions League yet they are being eliminated year after year from a different team from another major league,like Spain and England most of the cases.
In quality, they are not worse than any big club in Europe from Spain, England, Italy or Germany but their weak defense is so harmful for their chance to take the trophy.

Quote
They sure have great quality players like having for me the best midfielder and attacker like Messi and Neymar and these names only are scary enough to scare any opponent yet in the Champions League it is not working.
A weakest area of PSG squad is their defensive system especially their defenders. They also need strong defensive midfielders who can reduce pressure and risk on defenders and goalkeeper.

Marquinhos is not good enough for an ambitious club like PSG. Sergio Ramos came but I can see he is no longer be able to cover defensive loopholes for Marquinhos. He himself made some serious mistakes too because of his old age.

The attacking trio contributes to their weak defense too as they mostly don't join defend when opponents do counter attack or attack against PSG.
1289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: February 01, 2023, 02:53:01 AM
Regarding long-term players, I think Erik ten Hag will do this in the summer transfer market, considering that today the winter transfer market has officially closed.
Buying players in winter transfer market is always more risky than in summer transfer market. Because after a winter transfer window, new players don't have weeks of training before playing first match for their clubs. With summer transfer window, after that, players will have many weeks for training and adaption in a new club before playing official matches for their clubs. Good performance in debut match is important to help new players have confidence and it can affect their later performance too.

Quote
Both manchester united and barcelona have shown epic performances this season and there is no doubt that the meeting between the two in the Europa League has been eagerly awaited by many football lovers around the world.
If either Manchester United or Barcelona win Europa League, they will have a good milestone in their rebuilding progress. It can be a solid foundation for their future in next few seasons.

I did not spend time to watch videos and read articles to verify what OP included but I won't be surprised if JP Morgan lied about Bitcoin and Ethereum but behind the scenes, they actually invested in Bitcoin and Ethereum.

As entities that aim at profit financially and from investment, they won't ignore assets that can help them become richer. Like influencers, they can have bad mouths and words about Bitcoin many years but later we knew they actually invested in Bitcoin far in the past too.

Don't trust them and do your own research about Bitcoin, have your own thinking and belief in Bitcoin. If you have your solid belief in Bitcoin, make your investment decision that should not be affected by banks, influencers.
1291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 31, 2023, 03:21:31 AM
Osimhen is pretty similar like drogba.
He is strong and having good agility. he is also a key for napoli to win the any matches in series a and UCL. I would be so glad if napoli can win UCL as well.
Osimhem is strong, speedy and very determinant with his shots like Drogba but he must train himself more and improve his finishing skills. If he can diversify his finishing skills, he will become a more dangerous player and more similar to Drogba at his best seasons.

Yes, I understand, but let's see AC Milan performance in the last few matches. Milan, IMO, has experienced a decline in performance in Serie-A. Actually, Milan is now able to focus for Serie-A, after failing in the Coppa Italia. UCL might be the last round for Milan if they are still in their current form (i think hard for Milan to win from Tottenham).
Perhaps AC Milan will try best in Champions League because with knock-out format, they can solve it match by match. They don't have to think too far in Champions League but Serie A is more important for them. They must spend best for Serie A because with a high competitiveness in top four race, chance for them to be out of top four is big.

Having a position in top four will help them in finance and in ability to keep their star players in the club as well as to attract new star players joining them in the summer.
1292  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: January 31, 2023, 03:08:04 AM
Unfortunately, Gattuso failed to become Valencia coach. He was reportedly fired by Valencia as of January 30, 2023. It was very hard for a Gattuso to become a coach, he didn't shine so much, since 2013, he could only give 1 Coppa Italia trophy to Napoli. Meanwhile, when he coached other clubs, including Valencia, he experienced difficulties. Valencia in bad position, they are only 1 point different from the team in the relegation zone. Despite being in 14th position at the moment, it looks like the Valencia board does not want this negative result to continue, and has decided to sign mutual agreement to terminate the contract with Gattuso.
Maybe Gattuso does not match with a coach position and I think I am wrong if I say he is not smart enough to be a coach. It can be or can not, I don't know but a personal trait of Gattuso is like Roy Kean and I think such traits are not good for coaches. They will have more troubles to control their ego and adapt to their bosses as well as players. Generally, failing to be a part of whole club is not a good factor to support their success in management.

However, it is still early for Gattuso to achieve something for his management career. Like Claudio Ranieri who had bad career before a successful season with Leicester City. One season and it is enough for him, everyone remembered how he brought Leicester City to one of most surprising trophy in Premier League history.

PSG are consistently underperforming.
Their main players have yet fully recovered and ready after World Cup 2022. Their under-performance is unacceptable because in theory, they have enough star players on bench to replace those key players a few weeks.

Quote
And if they perform like that, they will have to give up their hopes of winning Ligue 1 and the Champions League. They have dropped points in three of their last four matches. And their overall performance was very poor.
They wasted some chances to finalize the match and at the end they made another stupid mistake and Reims did not wasted that one to equalize the match in injury time.

You are right about PSG opportunity in Champions League. If they continue playing and under-performing like this, their opponent in Champions League, Bayern won't let PSG easily win and go next. To win Bayern in Champions League, they must play as best as they can but it is not what they are showing latest matches.

Quote
Bonding between players has become weaker. Despite having the best players like Messi, Neymar and Mbappe in attack, PSG team is facing a lot of problems to score goals. If the bonding between the players is not strong, I don't expect any better performance from PSG.
I think Mbappe shows some proactive corporations with his team-mates recent matches. He made more passes to his mates but accuracy and efficiency from his efforts are still not too good. Anyway, if it is what Mbappe actually want to do, he can improve it and if effect can be shown in matches with Bayern, it would be perfect for PSG.
1294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 30, 2023, 02:56:30 AM
This was one of the rare games that we watched Napoli having problems on winning. Roma played much better than I expected. Especially after seeing their performance against Napoli in Rome I thought like Napoli would get even a more comfortable win here. Still Napoli got the win of course that's what matters for them. Osimhen and Simeone's goals brought the victory.

Now we see Napoli 13 points ahead of Inter in the standings. They are in a very comfortable position from now on.
They dominated the match and Roma did not create too much challenge against Napoli. Roma did not play too good with attacking in the match and the equalizing goal is one of very few opportunities they had in the match. In contrast, Napoli created so many opportunities but anyway a late goal from Simeone solved everything for them.

Napoli should be awarded Scudetto in this season because I don't see how they will waste 13 points difference too easily.

Napoli's dominance is still unstoppable for now and even with this they are solidifying with their 13 point gap.
Even though this is indeed an interesting match because indeed Roma also presented a performance that actually can still be said to be good, but it is clear that Napoli still cannot be stopped for now
Result is only 2 - 1 for Napoli but during the match, they dominated AS Roma and really deserved that winning. Roma did not have too many dangerous opportunities in this match but Napoli had abundant chances to score more than 2 goals.

This winning from Derby del Sol actually gives Napoli a very good big and safe difference with other clubs, not only Inter Milan.

Quote
On the other hand, after Roma in the next 3 matches they will still face easy opponents and I am still quite sure that Napoli can continue to gain points.
Roma still have chance to join top four because even after this defeat, they are only 3 points less than Inter Milan at the second position. However they must avoid missing points in coming matches if  they don't want to waste good chance in this race.

How can the government make sure that something like FTX (cooperate finance enriching themselves) never happened again?
Governments follow their citizens to submit proposals for regulations and approve some of them, apply them in their nations. They don't go ahead with regulations first so their regulations won't be able to prevent future scam types.

Quote
Crypto is presently not regulated and I don't see how regulation will fix this issue
Cryptocurrency is regulated now but it does not have strict regulations like in other traditional and older markets like gold, stocks, real estate.

Quote
my concern is the CBDC, I think it will work better as the real Stable coin, unlike Luna UST that team claimed was back by dollar but was not backed by anything... Wouldn't CBDC fixed this issue of fake USD backed stable coins?
They are not stable coins, but another version of fiat currencies which are launched and controlled by governments and central banks.

You as a crypto adopter would you like to use CBDC if the pairs are available on all crypto exchanges as a way to store yourself some digital US Dollar?
It will take me months to see how CBDCs work, how secure it is before I use CBDCs as a replacement for fiat currencies.

Pump and dump scheme does not exist in Bitcoin market. If it has ever existed, it was long time ago, years ago when Bitcoin had smaller price and very smaller trading volume. Nowadays, you can see rises and falls for Bitcoin but not pumps and dumps.

It is true to use pump and dump scheme for altcoins, not Bitcoin.

DCA and hodl your bitcoins with very long term vision will help you get rid of fear of missing out, panic.

I also believe that we will see Gakpo as one of the main players of the starting eleven. They have signed him with the aim of strengthening their attacking line in the end.
Gakpo is a player who can play at swings and in the middle of Liverpool trio so he is so good as a replacement for Firmino.

Quote
Diaz has made a big impact but Liverpool were still unable to fill Mane's place. After the Gakpo transfer they can fix their problems in productivity in time hopefully.
Diaz is a good player and he adapted so well in Liverpool but his contribution is affected by his injury. Furthermore he is not at a similar level of Mane but Liverpool must rebuild their trio with Diaz and other new players. Mane is no longer in Liverpool, Firmino will leave the club soon and Diaz together with Gakpo, Jota, Nunez, and Salah will be their future.

Quote
He didn't seem very well in his first game maybe but I expect him not to have big problems on adaptation. He should get used to the league and the team soon and start showing his skills.
Diaz brings some challenge to opponent defense with his speed and dribbling but he need to improve accuracy of his shots as well as his connection with other team-mates.

I know about bitcoin since 2021, but my major challenge of learning bitcoin all this while is because of no electricity.  Sometimes in a week the electricity company distribute electric power once or twice in a week doesn't last up to an hour.
Last year I tried my best to save some money so I can buy generator that can give me electricity to learn bitcoin well  and to start up the little I can invest in bitcoin.
You can learn about Bitcoin by many resources on the Internet (websites, forums, Github, Youtube channels) or paper books or e-books. Fortunately with paper books or e-books, you can learn about Bitcoin everywhere.

Mastering Bitcoin (Github).

You can get your bitcoin wallet (Bitcoin Core, Electrum or hardware wallets) and use it to store your bitcoins, bring it around and don't need to have constant Internet connection.

It sounds great as you managed to buy an electricity generator for yourself. Have you ever thought of solar panels?

Honestly, it doesn't matter, what good news comes for Juventus right now. They are obviously going to be very upset that a lot of points have been reduced from them like that. Obviously, the players are supposed to be upset the most. Because they had nothing to do with this. But they are certainly going to be punished for something that they did not do.
At least if you think about their situation positively, it is better than Calciopoli 2006 with which they were relegated to Serie B and saw a lot of star players left their club like Thuram, Canavaro and some others. At least in this season, they are still playing in Serie A and with 15 points less than a club in 2nd position AC Milan and 14 points less than clubs from 3rd to 5th positions, Lazio, Inter Milan and AS Roma, the season has yet ended for Juventus.

In addition, they did not lose star players in winter transfer so onwards they will go with best players they have for rest of season.

Quote
And I think we can see the definite impact of not having the right mindset for Juventus right now. I thought that they are going to be in a good state and consistent performance after the break. But this punishment has been such a setback for them that they are still unable to recover.
It is hard to stay positively, optimistic about what happened recently. However, chance has yet over for Juventus and they can keep fighting strong as same as how they fighted after Calciopoli 2006. Chance for them to be eligible for top four is smaller but it has yet entirely closed. With all of unstable forms of above clubs, Juventus can fight and keep up their hope for great achievement.
