I think not any impact with Mourinho arrive on  AS Roma for this season because he can't give his magic how club not fully consistent on every match, always loss from bigger position standing team and some team with mediocre team failed get full points make AS Roma not any speculative will finish on top four position standing. I think still have chance for AS Roma but really need how to keep consistent for all left match success get three points, Depending with AS Roma management will give second chance for Jose Mourinho if failed in this years and keep extended him for next year.
Indeed, Mourinho improves Roma somewhat but in result, it is not much different than recent seasons. However, I believe in him because I take into consideration that in some big matches, Roma were just lack of something to have points or even to win and get 3 points from big clubs.

I don't know that the approach of Mourinho to seriously criticizes Roma players is right and is helpful for them in long run but I do see some accurate points on Roma players in his statement. They are good ones but still lack of strength and confidence in some points which damage their whole performance and results in big matches. To be fair for them, they played well enough in big matches and in general, did not have much worse performance than opponents. Unfortunately, some weak moments cause lost matches.

You can consider Roma in Serie A like AC Milan in Champions League. AC Milan have their first season in Champions League after many years and they struggle to have points even they played well enough (just like Roma in Serie A). Give them time, they will return stronger.

The problem still lies in the coach who is not suitable for Manchester United, because if Rangnick is the exact coach then at least Rangnick can give good results against weaker teams. In fact, Manchester United can still be held to a draw by Burnley, in fact Burnley is currently at the bottom of the standings. See how Tuchel worked for Chelsea even though only with players who were there at the time of his debut for Chelsea but Tuchel could give the UCL title straight away at that time. At least that's a great thing when the coach fits into the team, here at Manchester United they still haven't got an exact coach.
Ragnick can be a good coach in another club but it does not mean that he will be a perfect coach for Manchester United. So far, he does not satisfy expectation of the club or their fans.
Based on his management and results so far, I think Manchester United are right to not sign a long term contract with him. A temporary contract is better for the club in general because they will not have to pay compensation fee if they sack Ragnick.

It is time for Manchester United to play their absent game tonight. They are going to play a home game against Brighton and this is a tough game for them surely. Brighton haven't lost in the Premier League for seven weeks and this would affect them positively. Manchester United should get prepared really well for this game. They need an immediate win to get rid of this poor form. I don't expect a very comfortable win but I still want to believe that they will be winning this time by a one-goal gap. It could end like 2-1.
Every game now is a tough game for Manchester United but if they can handle internal things and boost their player mentality stronger and more positively, I am sure they can come back. In fact, their player quality is not too bad but the bad thing is in their coach position. From Ole to Ragnick, I don't see they control their players too good. It is bad from a foundation for any success. Next, tactics can be another serious issue. So far, Ragnick has been still unclear on what tactics is best in the club. Players might feel unclear about it as well.

According to that report, in Q4 2021 the proportion of sustainable power electricity in Bitcoin mining is 55.8% which is 1% increase from Q3 2021. That makes Bitcoin mining industry is one of the most sustainable industries over the world.

Do you anticipate a future in which there is a large-scale battle between pro-and anti-Bitcoin nations?
There are always two opposite sides: supporters and protesters. They are from personal, institutional to governmental levels.

There will be nations which support, make Bitcoin as legal tender and nations which don't accept Bitcoin. It is like Communism and Capitalism but there will always be a dominating side like Capitalism dominates the world.

Because I am Bitcoiner, I believe that in future, there will be more nations which accept Bitcoin than don't accept it.

Actually, he needs 17 more main goals to break his own record after breaking Gerd Muller's record he now needs to break his own record and that is what he needs to accomplish this season
His record is great already and almost impossible to break. If he can break it, it is not only because he plays well but because Bayern destroys Bundesliga too well. I mean to break that record, it needs multiple factors to co-occur: outstanding performance from both Bayern and Lewandowski; bad performances from other clubs in Bundesliga. Also it seems that Lewandowski already touches to his cap.

Quote
Thomas Muller is a great asset for Bayern Munich, that was an insane dedication through assist, Leroy Sane actually has 7 assist to Muller, it goes to show how really impressive most players of the Bayern Munich team
Muller shines in Bayern in his very young ages and now even he is old but still well adaptive enough to play and has big contribution for Bayern. Sane is future of Bayern after the generation of Lewandowski, Mueller, Neuer, etc. He made good decision to leave Manchester City and joined Bayern because in Bayern and Bundesliga, he will have better chance in Germany squad. Bayern usually have many players in Germany national team and they are core of Germany squad. So Sane will increase his chance to be chosen in the national team.

Atlanta vs Juventus share the points, it's a shame that three points are in sight, because Danilo managed to equalize 1-1 during injury time, so the Atlanta coach was so annoyed that he didn't want to come to the press conference,
Juventus luckily to finish that match with 1 point by a very late goal of Danilo. This goal helps them to secure a fourth position and don't lose it to Atalanta. Good for them but the competition for top 4 is very exciting with this result.

Quote
roma vs sassuolo, although Roma managed to take the lead first, but they also had to be content to share points, it's a shame that Roma's performance is still inconsistent, As Roma tactician Jose Mourinho is frustrated with the results of last night's match
This draw is bad for Roma because now they are 6 points behind Juventus already and it seems they can not come back to their best form. In addition, Juventus are on fire now so that they might expand the gap with Roma and Atalanta soon.

Quote
milan vs Sampdoria, a narrow victory was enough to bring AC Milan to the top of the standings, from 25 matches and has collected 55 points...
AC Milan now has the first position but they play one more match than Inter Milan. So Inter Milan will take it back if they can win their match. Anyway, results in the last round are very interesting. It makes Serie A is worth to watch rather than boring Premier League and Bundesliga. Interesting in championship race and top 4 race.
2107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: February 13, 2022, 04:07:36 AM
I think just not consistent performance by  Manchester United and not blame what happening right now, first when Ronaldo back to Manchester United he was be favorite player for fans with several goal created, but after few month later Manchester United is not consistent and Cristiano Ronaldo never have contribution for team, more 6 games without goal I think have mistake between formation or Ronaldo performance drop and need new player or new manager maybe.
Compares Manchester United to PSG. Messi did not score many goals in Ligue 1 but PSG still won in many matches and are moving towards the title. I know Messi has more key passes and assists than Ronaldo but he always has more assists and more contributions to a team than Ronaldo.

However, if we look at Ronaldo performance in this season, it is not actually bad. He has scored good total goals for them so far and even done his job much better than other attacking players in the club (Greenwood, Cavani, Rashford, Sancho, etc.). 5 or 6 matches without goal does not an ending for his career and if he is not Ronaldo, we don't talk too much about it.

And in general, the performance of Manchester United is made up off other players as well. If they can not win, it is not only because of Ronaldo

Without any doubt it's crushing and big defeat for Bayern against Bochum but still they have enough lead for winning this year's title because Dortmund also already losing some good points and if they win against Union Berlin in next match then still we have six points gape between leader Bayern and them with just 12 matches remaining in Bundesliga most chances no team can touch them for winning this title.
The gap is already big enough and safe enough for Bayern to maintain it until the end. In addition, there is no guarantee that other clubs will be able to even maintain the current gap with Bayern. They might more probably let Bayern expand the gap bigger and bigger. It happens in so many seasons and Bayern won Bundesliga many rounds before final days.

Quote
Union Berlin having very good record against Dortmund with Haaland is also not available for Dortmund it's very hard for them to beat them and having reduced this points gape with home team will also try to won and jump from sixth to fourth position for having some good chance for their next season Champions League spot.
Again, when we mention about Dortmund, we automatically mention about Haaland. It means Haaland is a biggest star of Dortmund and the most important player for them. Unfortunately, he will leave Dortmund so they will have to prepare and adapt to a new live without him.

I am not sure about his fitness and why do you get more injuries in this season. Did Dortmund overuse him in last few seasons? Will Haaland be able to be healthy and keep up good performance for his career in other clubs? It's better for global football if Haaland can be healthy and has a great career. He and Vlahovic look like most promising strikers in next 10 years.

Napoli vs Inter Milan draw opens opportunities and opportunities for AC Milan to take the top position of the standings if they manage to beat Sampdoria. I think AC Milan's consistent performance can give Milan an advantage to return to the top of the standings and beat Sampdoria. The draw between Napoli vs Inter Milan is highly expected by Milan fans because their chances of taking the top position from Inter Milan are increasingly wide open and have the opportunity to remain at the top of the standings if they are able to perform consistently until the end of the season.
It opens two opportunities for AC Milan to keep up their fighting for Scudetto against Inter Milan and for Juventus to get the third position on the table. Juventus are challenging AC Milan and Napoli for the third or even second position.

AC Milan already are given another chance by Inter Milan. Let's see how do they will take advantage of this draw from Inter Milan. They can not blame on any team if they can not take such opportunity. Anyway, AC Milan are growing so well and if they can not win Scudetto this season, they might get in in near few seasons. However, they must try a good striker to replace Ibrahimovic and Giroud. Juventus already have Vlahovic, Inter Milan have Martinez, what is a main striker for AC Milan?

Now without any doubt this draw is having the best opportunity for AC Milan to take some good position for this year's title race because now they are going to face Sampdoria and this win can give them top rank for few weeks because inter is still having one match advantage, and they can win and take back this spot back from AC Milan and this could be just 2 point difference between these two teams with Napoli is now slipping at third spot with having eight point gapes from Juventus with they have one match advantage now suddenly.
Serie A is very exciting from Scudetto to top 4 competition. Inter and AC Milan are in Scudetto race. Napoli, Juventus, Atalanta, AS Roma for top 4 with third to fourth positions competition. It seems that AS Roma are almost out but we can not completely strike them out for now.

The come back of Juventus makes this competition more interesting and if Vlahovic can perform well in rest of this season, next one we will see Juventus get back to the Scudetto race.

Personally I don't trust those services. However, for people who don't have good plans just in case some accidents happen with them, their loved ones don't have any choice. And such services are their only hope.

It's not my advice for all but I do let my loved ones know where I store my keys and tell them that in case something bad happens with me, they will know how to restore it. I tell them the importance that in such terrible case, they should try to recover the wallet by themselves, and should not leak the keys to others. I warn them about risk if they leak keys, others will steal cryptocurrency in those wallets.

I agree with you. For now Man United is no longer a scary team, although they have a lot of great players but their performance doesn't look good. Their Teamwork is less effective and they don't have a good defense, luckily they still have a goalkeeper like De Gea, without him it would be very easy for other teams to score goals. With great players, Man United should be much better than it is now but in fact, their performance is even worse. So it's clear that Man United has a pretty serious problem, it either there is no good synergy between the coach and the players, or indeed the strategy the coach has is not reliable.
They are scary team for their fans because their fans can not predict what Manchester United players will perform in next matches. They are fluctuating so much between good and bad matches and are playing like Arsenal 2 or 3 seasons ago.

There is no confidence in Old Trafford and their player mentality to contribute for the club is broken. Without good attitude, good psychology, it is super hard for them to come back. They have systematic problem so any star player can only help them with short term effect. From Bruno Fernandez, Maguire, Cavani, Greenwood, Ronaldo, Pobga, De Gea. They all can not carry a whole team because it is hard to see a whole team can play well together.
2112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 12, 2022, 03:00:15 AM
Many games left means there is higher chance for them to gain more points but at the same time there is also higher chance for them to lose more points than their competitors. Looking at the chance, Serie-A gives them better chance than in Champions League as their first play-off match is against Liverpool. It is not an ideal situation for Inter obviously because they have many hard matches this year and the matches are all important for them. I hope Simone Inzaghi will be able to manage his team in both physic and mental.
Matches mean opportunities to pursuit points and targets, Scudetto, Champions League zone, Europa League zone. Good teams will earn more points and expand difference to worse teams. Inter Milan are doing so impressively and they have enough confidence to protect their trophy which has been reflected on many of their matches.

The fundamental characteristic of a champion is being able to score goals to get 1 point or winning goal to get 3 points in very late minutes. It's exactly what Inter Milan have performed so far in this season. In addition, they are able to do dawn raids in order to have early advantage and go towards final win. They did it in the latest match against AS Roma in Coppa Italia. Even Roma managed to come back with some opportunities, Inter Milan protect their advantage very well and their defense is solid.
2113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: February 11, 2022, 12:10:15 PM
Arsenal, West Ham, Tottenham and Manchester United still have a chance to finish in the top 4 and qualify for the Champions League next season. It will probably be an interesting race until the end of the season, and it would be great if they could do it.

Arsenal were lucky not to concede a goal yesterday despite having to play with 10 men for more than 20 minutes in the second half. Wolves performed well in that match even though they couldn't score, but for sure my guess was wrong for the final result. In the end I saw Arteta celebrate their win over Wolves like they just beat Liverpool.  Cheesy
Arsenal probably have most mentally weak among these clubs. West Ham don't have too much quality if compares to Spurs, Arsenal and Manchester United but such club can make big surprise because they are hungry with big achievement. Tottenham and Manchester United have best player resource but Tottenham likely need more time with Conte. Manchester United have some serious issues from coach position, tactic to internal conflict of their players.

I would like to see Arsenal jumps back to top 4 after many seasons and it will be good motivation for them to return. It will be good for Premier League as well because Arsenal have both good tradition and healthy finance.

If anyone sends you a private message and ask for such information, make such request, they are scammers. I am sure about that.

About passwords, 2FA, keys, etc. many people do backups but in inaccurate ways. They make backups in screenshots, on clould, in email, on social media. They think they are safe by doing so but in case, their accounts (email, cloud, social media, etc) get hacked, their backups will be leaked as well.

Another bad defeat for Spurs, and it could have more consequence than just losing three points as this has further hampered their chance of finishing in fourth position, the battle for which team will take the last CL spot (4th) is really intense to say the least, no fewer than three teams are actually in contention for that position, Arsenal, Manchester United, Spurs and West Ham, thus as a result of that competition, it's really bad to drop unnecessary points just as Spurs have done in as many games, likewise United, I think Arsenal are in the best position to finish 4th at the end of the season.
With another failed season, it seems that there is no chance for Spurs to keep Kane in the club. They successfully kept him there for one more season but in the next summer, I am sure that Kane will almost have no reason to stay there. He desires to win big titles and Spurs can not help him to achieve such ones. Furthermore, Kane with his magnificent talent and productive ability to score goals, deserves to have either team title or personal title.

His career won't last too long and in next summer, he will have to make a last important choice for his career. Stay in Spurs and becomes a legend in heart of fans or moves to bigger clubs and win titles.

A lot of projects make big promises and got rug pull or dirty scams like updating to a new contract(more than 50% of holders unaware of the new token migration) and lost all funds.
What can be done to avert or be kept to date with the latest information being passed to all the investors. I noticed that majority of investors hardly come online on telegram to know when there are changes in the project they invested
In general, scam websites will ask people to give their approval rights. I don't say non-scam websites don't require it because with some activities, it is mandatory. However, a scam website will requires it even it is not necessary because with this access, they will have full control of your wallet and can move your fund.

If by any chance, you give any third party sites with the approval rights, you should unrekt it as soon as possible when you finish your works. Using this site for Smart Contract Allowance Checker and Find & revoke all the addresses that can spend your tokens

Traders have different types, amateur and professional.

Amateur traders are similar to gamblers but even so there are two types of amateur traders. If they use own money to trade, no leverage, they are less likely gamblers because if their trade positions fail with original plans, they can switch to be holders. If they use leverage, borrow money to trade, they are actually gamblers. They are gambling with the market, with the people who give their loans, with levarage, collateral liquidation.

Professional traders are more disciplined with their trades, with cutloss, with leverage, and they instantly exit their positions even with draw or small lose for their position.
2118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 09, 2022, 03:33:43 PM
A draw in this match will benefit AC Milan the most. Inter won in a cup match against Roma and now are already back on track. I think if Napoli wants to compete for the title they need to win this match and show that they are capable of winning the league. Also Juventus is in full speed mode to get back into top positions.
Inter Milan won in Coppa Italia and it helps them to get back on good form. However, it's just one match and we need to watch a few more matches to see whether they actually return to best form or not. It seems they do after having dominating match against Roma.

An interesting match maybe Napoli are superior because they play at home. Of course they have a better mentality but also a good team they played well this season, even they made a surprise because many doubted his strength. Maybe a draw could be the end result. If this happens of course Milan must be able to take advantage of this situation by getting a victory in order to detect the top position of the class. But Milan will also play Lazio, they are also a good team.
Napoli, AC Milan and Juventus have their own tasks in this round and because of a tight race they are participating in, 3 points must be earned. Napoli have worst player resources among 3 teams and AC Milan have best capability to catch or surpass Inter Milan. Juventus and Napoli are only parts for the competition and they make it more exciting only. I am very doubtful that they can win the Scudetto.

Gambling sites can have KYC requirement by default or in their Term of Service, you will get some points about additional/ advanced KYC requirements in case their sites detect suspicious things on your account.

Of course, if you are cheating their casinos, nothing to complain. However, if you are not cheating, you still don't know when they suddenly pull KYC card against you. So in crypto, people advice that not your keys, not your coins. Don't trust any site, any service and leave your capital there.
