after the rumor came up a few days ago that real madrid will try very hard to sign Jude Bellingham (dortmund) next summer, today João Cancelo (man city) is the next player to be linked to the spanish record champion - the full back player is also expected to move from england to spain next season



As a right back for Real Madrid, Joao Cancelo has the potential to be a great player. It is my opinion that he would be worth €60 million on the transfer market at the moment. There is a possibility that Real Madrid might have to pay a lot more than that. It is because he is a world-class defender. Moreover, if he moves to Real Madrid, I am sure he will be given the opportunity to start on the first team. Currently, I think that the decision is up to the player as to where he wants to play. Manchester City is also playing well and at the same time, Real Madrid can also be a viable option.

The first match in ICC Under-19 World Cup Qualifier Asia Division Two has been won by Oman by a massive margin of 201 runs. It was disappointing since Bhutan playing XI was 100% native, while the Oman team was 100% comprised of foreigners. Aryan Bisht scored 60, and Oman reached a total of 255/9 in 50 overs. Karma Dorji picked up 3 wickets, while Rigser Namgyel and Anand Mongar picked 2 wickets each. In return, Bhutan was bowled out for a total of 54 runs in 20.5 overs. The scorecard is here:

https://www.icc-cricket.com/match/101256#scorecard

This is a really massive win for the Oman under-19 team. Honestly, I have to say that I expected a lot more from Bhutan's under-19 team. At the very least, it was expected that they would play the entire 50 overs. It is my belief that there is a very important reason why Oman did so well against Bhutan, and that is that they have a team that is made up of 100 percent expatriates.

Unless ICC takes any kind of action against this I don't think this problem is going to be solved. The fact that other teams are also going to make their first 11 out of foreign players is going to push them to do the same thing.
1703  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin should I invest in other than bitcoin? on: September 29, 2022, 08:56:03 AM
There are many options other than bitcoin for investing in crypto, especially in popular altcoins such as ethereum, bnb, xrp, or other popular altcoins. you just need to adjust to what you are looking for. if you are looking for an investment with a high enough price, then ethereum is a great choice besides bitcoin. however, if you want a price that is still quite cheap for now, you can choose BNB. Well, there are also many popular altcoin investments under $1 or $10. you just have to look at the CMC in the top 10 coins, or the top 20 coins. I'm pretty sure that the coins will have a pretty good price when the bull market or its development has advanced further.

In the crypto market, in addition to bitcoin, we also have more than 20,000 different altcoins, it can be said that there are thousands of choices to invest. But my question is which coin will be as safe as bitcoin and what is the guarantee when you invest in altcoins those coins will go further in the future? The whole market still depends on the movement of bitcoin, bitcoin drops 1 then most altcoins drop 10 and what happens when bitcoin drops more? Let's go back to 2018 and see where the top altcoins are now when bear season arrives. Investing in altcoins is very risky, especially low cap altcoins, my advice is not to be stubborn about investing in altcoins during a bear market, just focus on bitcoin to minimize risk before thinking about making profit.

If you want to mature in the market, most people go through the stages that you go through, no newbie realizes that knowledge is the key to entering the market until they lose. Your advice is really helpful but in my opinion, the best way for newbies to grow up is to let them experience the same things that the market offers them. There is no better lesson or knowledge than your own experience in the market.

All 3 are good advice but the 4th I slightly disagree, just like in this bear market, diversification doesn't work when the altcoin market depends on the movement of bitcoin. When Bitcoin drops in price, the whole market is in the red so diversifying into altcoins is not necessary when you invest in bitcoin.

Because people knew that Bayern Munich was going to win the league title, I believe people began to lose interest in the Bundesliga. It seems that suddenly there is a possibility that this is not going to be the case. It is for this reason that I believe people are becoming more interested in the Bundesliga again. Nevertheless, the problem with Bayern Munich is that they have enough money to quickly fix any problems that they may have. I think that this time it is going to be either a change of authority or the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo to the team. My opinion is that either one of these options will be able to solve the problem. Even so, I agree with you that the Bundesliga is once again interesting to watch.
Honestly what comes to my mind is people are interested in the Bundesliga or are they just interested in the performance of Bayern Munich who got a negative result in their 4 matches? Because to be honest I also think a little about the Bundesliga. Changes in position in the standings, at the top of the standings precisely because Bayern Munich is in a negative trend. If they come back then the situation will change soon and I'm sure of that.

It is understandable that people are just tired of watching the same team win the Bundesliga title year after year. I think it has come to a point where people actually would be happy if Bayern Munich did not win the title of the Bundesliga this season. It basically just does not matter to them which team wins the Bundesliga title except for Bayern Munich. I think that's why people are so excited about the fact that they are performing poorly in the Bundesliga this year. Although it is too early to make any predictions, I think Dortmund will have a good chance of winning this season if they can be consistent throughout the whole season.

Messi will never return to Barca as a player or as someone in the board! He will be club history and the most respected player from Barca but Messi has nothing to do with coaching or having any skills towards management so yea ...he is good with the ball and that's it. ERA of Messi in Barcelona has ended 2 years ago.
Yes, it can't be either. He left because Barcelona wanted to cut his salary because Barcelona was experiencing financial difficulties. Indeed Messi may feel unhappy, and it can make him unwilling to return to Barcelona. But so far I have not found an official leveling from Messi. So maybe there's a chance of a comeback or not it's a mystery. If he's going to retire we don't know. At the moment he looks comfortable at PSG he has also found the best game. I think Xavi also doesn't need Messi's figure anymore at the moment.

The fact that Lionel Messi is not going to return to Barcelona in any form at all makes me so sad, but it is true that he is not going to return in any way. It is obvious that he was one of the best things to happen to Barcelona in its history. However, every good thing has to come to an end at some point. Lionel Messi is a player everyone wishes he would stay at Barcelona for a long period of time and he should end his career in Barcelona as a 'one club player'. It wasn't meant to be that way, as Barcelona has some rubbish management at the helm.
1707  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 28, 2022, 04:40:29 PM
We are tired of watching Bayern Munich dominate every season in the Bundesliga. Before the start of the season, we were sure that Bayern Munich would win the Champions League title. But this season teams like Union Berlin, Dortmund, and Freiburg are doing well. At the same time, Bayern Munich's performance has been somewhat weak. Bayern Munich is now the fifth team on the table. And they are 5 points behind Union Berlin. So it is likely that we will see the Union Berlin team at the top of the points table for several more weeks. Bayern Munich will try their best to finish top of the table. But since their attacking performance is a bit weak now, it is a bit difficult for Bayern to achieve the top spot in the table.
Bayern is going not where near the top this season. And this makes me super excited not for them though but for the other teams because it shows that there is hope and that they too can beat Bayern. I like said before, the Bunglesliga is now interesting to watch because the dominance by Bayern Munich has been destroyed. Now we can actually see them struggle to get to the top. They would need more that 5points to get there and stay there.

Because people knew that Bayern Munich was going to win the league title, I believe people began to lose interest in the Bundesliga. It seems that suddenly there is a possibility that this is not going to be the case. It is for this reason that I believe people are becoming more interested in the Bundesliga again.

The Bundesliga is obviously a lot more interesting this season. There is no longer a huge difference between Bayern Munich and its closest rivals in terms of points. The Bayern Munich team is currently ranked 5th in the table and despite the fact that only seven matches have been played so far, I am genuinely starting to believe that the Bundesliga will likely be decided by a different team this time around.

There is no guarantee that Union Berlin will win the Bundesliga, but I think as long as Bayern Munich is not going to be the league winner, the competition is going to be interesting in this league in the future.

I don't understand how you can call Union Berlin (a team with the lowest budgets of all Bundesliga teams) a serious competitor of FC Bayern. Union will never ever win the Bundesliga this season, I promise you that. If FC Bayern can be stopped, then only by Borussia Dortmund or RB Leipzig. And so far, it looks like only Dortmund is a serious competitor. RB Leipzig has sadly enough problems of its own.

Despite Bayern playing its weakest season in years, none of the Bundesliga "top teams" can put themselves in a promising position. That's worrying and makes me doubt whether any other team than Bayern should really succeed in winning the Bundesliga at the end of the season. But we will see, miracles happen from time to time.

Actually, I am not saying that Union Berlin is going to win the Bundesliga but my point is that as long as Bayern Munich is not going to win the title, the competition is going to be interesting in this League. Moreover, there is no way I can believe that Union Berlin is going to win the title, despite the fact that they are sitting on top of the table with the highest point total in the league.

In fact, Dortmund has the potential to be the best competitor for the title of the Bundesliga in this session. The only problem is that they keep losing at the most crucial moments of the game. To be honest, I am a bit skeptical about them.

~snip~
I surely agree but even though Bayern Munich is not effective in the Bundesliga they are doing well in the UEFA Championship League, in fact, they are currently at the top of Group C with 2 wins, 0 draws, and 0 losses, I think if this keeps up they can not have a championship for the club, but in term of the Bundesliga championship that will be the problem I don't know if Nagelsmann is focusing more with the UEFA Championship but maybe he's got a plan with the Bundesliga aswell they surely just needs time to prepare,

Obviously, I get the fact that they are performing quite well in the Champions League, however, it is quite concerning that they are not able to perform at the same level in the German league as they do in the Champions League. Basically, they have a problem that they are not able to finish in the D-Box because they don't have enough players for that part. Despite playing well in the group stage of the Champions League, I do believe that their lack of a dynamic striker is going to hurt them more than anything else in the playoffs, which was actually the case for Manchester City in the last Champions League.

Conte's team are thriving fine this season, the currently sit at third position with few points below the league leaders Arsenal. They showed good character and resilience against Leicester City last weekend with previous seasons golden boot winner Son scored three goals in the game. Tottenham will face a tough challenge in their next game against Arsenal. This will show how much both teams are prepared to face tough competition this season.

There is no doubt that Tottenham Hotspurs are playing really well this season and will continue to do so. Nevertheless, I would really like to see them be very consistent in their performance. It is true that they are at the top of the table at the moment. Despite this, a single mistake could be very problematic for them going forward in this season if they make it.

Next up for them is a match against Arsenal on the first of October. Having won this match, they have a really good chance of being the first team on the table. If however, they are not able to win this match, Arsenal will go further ahead in terms of points on the table. Therefore, if Tottenham is able to win this match there will just make this table a lot more interesting for the rest of the season.

I don't carelessly post here, I read news about injured Barca players here;
https://www.malaymail.com/news/sports/2022/09/23/barca-duo-kounde-and-depay-suffer-injuries-in-nations-league/29780
in this article what is called the "FIFA virus". and we know that kounde has become one of barca's mainstays in the back line, he is a defender that xavi really needs in the el Clasico match later.
But losing Kounde isn't a very big problem for Barcelona, they still have Piqué, Eric García, and Christensen. I think Piqué-Christensen will be a good duo for the center-defenders in the upcoming El Classico. About Depay's injury, it won't impact anything for Barcelona attacking line since the main CF is Lewandowski. Depay is only a substitution player on Barcelona squad now, the absence of Depay shouldn't be a serious problem. You don't need to be so worried because most of Barcelona key players are still availbale.
In addition to Kounde who suffered an injury while defending his country, Barcelona also confirmed that Ronald Araujo also suffered a thigh injury, this condition is increasingly difficult for Barcelona because these two players have always been Xavi's choice to strengthen the Barcelona back line. Although Barcelona still have Pique, Eric Garcia and Christensen who can replace Kounde and Araujo, this condition remains a disaster for Barcelona because El Clasico is only three weeks away.
Depay's injury did not bother Xavi too much, because he was not the first choice in the Barcelona squad. De Jong also has problems with his legs, Xavi still has a strong midfielder in his squad. Franck Kessie, Sergio Busquets, Pedri, Sergi Roberto and Gavi who can be relied on in every match.

There is already a lot of uncertainty surrounding the defense of Barcelona. In addition, all these injuries are not going to help at all in any way. Barca is going to face a lot of problems in the defense with Koundé and Ara'jo out with injuries.

In my opinion, Pique can no longer be trusted with the defense anymore, he is very old and he does not have the pace required to play at a high level. From the beginning of this season, the defense of the team was already weak. In the area of attacking and midfield, I believe Barcelona have an excellent backup plan. It seems to me that they are going to have some real problems in the defensive lineup as a result of all these injuries.
1712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 26, 2022, 10:39:26 AM
For this season, the Bundesliga is no longer boring with several teams starting to show their good performances at the beginning of this season where Bayern Munich, which used to dominate the Bundesliga, has started to decline in consistency. Although that is not the end of Bayern Munich at this point because Bayern Munich still has time to perform well and occupy the top of the Bundesliga standings. But Bayern Munich actually have to fight first to win some games and also beat opponents who are already in the top position at this time.
It would be much more interesting to see not a "competitive" Bundesliga (due to the fact that Bayern fell into a losing streak) but the success of the German teams in the Champions League. At the moment, nothing has changed - Leipzig is in last place in the group with zero points, Bayer shares 2-3 place with Atlético (both teams are 3 points behind Brugge lol), Eintracht shares 2-3 place with Tottenham (3 points behind Sporting), Borussia in a clear second place (3 points behind City). It is very likely that again, apart from Bayern, no one will reach the playoffs or will be destroyed there in the first round.

The Bundesliga is obviously a lot more interesting this season. There is no longer a huge difference between Bayern Munich and its closest rivals in terms of points. The Bayern Munich team is currently ranked 5th in the table and despite the fact that only seven matches have been played so far, I am genuinely starting to believe that the Bundesliga will likely be decided by a different team this time around.

This is the main advantage from tiki taka. Bayern was also facing the same situation when it was facing a team that can use fully defensive strategy and using counter attack just like when it was facing chelsea and real madrid. barcelona's player only focusing in the ball possession which is not good. The win will not determined by ball possession but it's from how many goals your team can make to win the match against another team. I didn't like a strategy that was putting ball possession as very important thing rather than focusing how to make goal.
I watched first half match between Bayern Munich vs Barcelona on second matchday at UEFA Champion League group stage and Barcelona have good performance at first half created many attempt but still not lucky for scoring goals. I think Barcelona games play style always tries how dominance with ball possession and looks slowly when have chance to make counter attack, different with Bayern Munich not trying with how dominance ball possession but how effective when get chance to make counter attack.

Barcelona have bad thing when conceded one or two goals not trying how to play effective for counter attack and scoring goals, but keep try playing ball possession on their defensive area. I think need change about Barcelona player motivate when losing and still have left minutes playing.

I was not quite happy when I saw that Barcelona could not win against Bayern Munich. I thought that they had a good chance because Bayern Munich is not in good form currently in the Bundesliga. But Barcelona could not capitalize on that.

2-0 loss might not seem like a big one compared to the last few times Barcelona lost against Bayern Munich. But in my opinion, a loss is a loss. I really think that Bayern Munich knows very well how to counter the tiki-taka style of football. And I think we all have to agree that Barcelona does not have a good defensive lineup. That is a big reason why they concede quite often.

Could massive crash impact stable coins?  like USDC or BUSD

For example if we will have a massive crash due to regulation and BTC is going to 5-12k how would it effect stable coins?
During a massive crash I have seen coins like USDT trade for 0.90 dollars, so they can be affected if there is an important crash in the price of bitcoin, however after the crash is over stable coins go back to their original value, so in a  way they can be a source of unexpected gains despite the crash as you can easily earn some money during those difficult times, however make sure the stable coin that you are buying is a reputable one as you do not want the same that happened to those which invested in UST to happen to you.

Stablecoins like USDT or BUSD backed by USD or government bonds and some other real assets, then I think if there is a big crash with bitcoin, it will barely affect stablecoins. Here we're just talking about bitcoin's price drop, not bitcoin's death or something that makes bitcoins no more. Because bitcoin disappears, the crypto market will also disappear.

USDT losing peg is due to the loss of confidence in stablecoins caused by UST, algorithmically stable coins will suffer if bitcoin or other altcoins plummet as algorithmically stablecoins are backed by the cryptocurrency.
1715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 24, 2022, 09:28:27 PM
To be honest in this case Nagelsmann is still good enough for a coach but the scheme he plays is always the same and it is clear when he has met many times and has experienced this the other team will get a glimmer of hope because his scheme has been read and it has been proven in the last few matches.
If indeed he still wants to be at Bayern he obviously needs more effort in this regard because otherwise the word "failed coach" will be repeated and he will have to leave even before his contract expires.
He surely is a good coach, but if his play tactics don't work anymore then he surely needs to change it and let the team play at their own position that they are used to playing, you can not force Sadio Mane into a position that he is not very familiar with, it works on the 1st game, then why isn't working on the later games, I think Nagelsmann is questioning Sadio Mane this, but Sadio Mane has a tendency that he of making mistakes when he is not very familiar with his plays,

As far as I'm concerned, Nagelsmann was not accused of being a bad coach while Robert Lewandowski was a member of the team. After Lewandowski left the club, this rumor of him being sacked only grew stronger and stronger. There seems to be a connection to be made here, so I think we are on the right track.

It is indisputably true that Lewandowski was their best player and their main scoring machine, and he was the man behind it all. The fact that he has left, even though Bayern has bought Mane, does not make him a lethal striker like Lewa was. As a result, I think changing the coach would not mean anything if they are not able to sign a striker who is effective.
1716  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Microstrategy purchased again 301BTC. Is this a sign? on: September 24, 2022, 03:17:39 AM
When someone buys at a huge percent I think that was a sign of an upcoming price hike but it's odd if you say that it indicates a bear is coming. The price is now bearish because we are still in a bear zone and not because of the upcoming meeting of fed. It was only just a meeting and we don't know what will they talked about. People should not think negatively in advance because what if they lower the rates instead of adding more?

Now I am no way of shorting because I don't believe the price will dump and also this price is too low for me to sell. There are many threads here which talks about if what will be the bottom of the price. You can always refer to that to get an idea if what to expect in case price really bottoms out.

As OP explained in previous comments, it was a joke that went viral on social media. It is a fact and a coincidence that every time Microstrategy buys more bitcoins, it is almost as if the bitcoins will drop immediately after. I've read a lot of such hilarious memes too, and I find it coincidental myself.

The Fed meeting is not only important for the crypto market but it also has a big impact on the world economy every time they make an announcement on interest rates. Bitcoin is an asset, a commodity, a part of the world economy, so its impacts cannot be avoided, every time interest rates rise, the DXY index spikes, then risk assets like bitcoin and stocks plunge.

The good thing is now BCCI taking WIPL seriously, they are about to issue tenders for the media rights etc soon.
Apart from setting up WIPL I'd also like to see if they change venues (Countries, probably SENA -alternate year-) once it gets settled, this would ensure local kids are getting a fair amount of exposure in other conditions too because there is hardly any bilateral cricket available for girls
I think a big reason why the BCCI is actually considering giving WIPL  a chance is that The Indian women have performed really well in recent times.  and with the recent win against England in the ODI, the Indian women have proved that they can perform really well against bigger opponents. So I think it is the right time for BCCI to arrange WIPL and set the tempo for the future of women's cricket.
It did play some part but that wasn't the main reason or at least big one.

IMO if that was the case then these girls should've gotten the WIPL back in 2017, when they reached the 50 overs WC Final. Although they lost but they earned the respect back home due to their campaign and people started talking or following the Indian Women team.

BCCI on the other hand was not even trying to get things done and kept making excuses. One can imagine their attitude that they didn't even hand out their WC prize money in a timely manner. According to me, things started moving fast when PCB expressed its desire to start WPCL and it created a lot of pressure on BCCI.

I believe that back then it was not the right time for women's IPL. The reason I mention this is because women's cricket was not that popular at the time, to be honest.

However, at this point in time, the world has already moved on from the longer formats of the game to the shorter formats. In addition to this, women's cricket has also become increasingly popular over the past few years as well. Recently, there have been some problems in men's cricket as well, and people are actually fed up with the whole thing.

Obviously, if good performance is not enough to convince BCCI to even consider a women's IPL, then I believe a bigger revenue is the number one reason why BCCI is even considering a women's IPL right now.

Exactly dear thats what we call a real play wow moment for me as i was underestimating the Babar's power due to his Asia cup performance but now he proved that he is the best. Pakistan not only chased the match also made historical victory. England should remember this match as they won by 154 but this time Pakistan chased the run and made a victory by 203 runs.
Pakistan continue to prove that they are unpredictable. In last game they were beaten by England quite comfortably and odds were in favour of England for this game. But what a chase by Babar and Rizwan, there is previous record chase by Newzealand against Pakistan in which Newzealand won by ten wickets.
Pakistan gave a target of 168 which was chased by Newzealand without losing a wicket.
https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/pakistan-tour-of-new-zealand-2015-16-914187/new-zealand-vs-pakistan-2nd-t20i-914223/full-scorecard

There was a great run chase by Pakistan in this match. It has been proven that they are capable of achieving the impossible. In addition, it is great to see that Babar Azam is once again in top form. It is worth mentioning that they did not even lose a single wicket. That's how confident they were that they would win this match. There was only one aspect of Liam Dawson's economy that was not very good. Other than that, the economy of every bowler of England was really high as well. But there are still a lot of matches to be played in this series, so there is still a lot to be done. At the moment, the score is tied at 1-1. There are still five matches left to play.

The way the Indian women's team has been progressing in recent times is truly commendable. Despite losing the T20 series against England, India's women's team has already won the title by winning the first two matches of the ODI series. And their performance in both matches was excellent. Harmanpreeet Kaur batted very well, especially in two matches. Due to his amazing innings, the Indian team was able to defeat the England team very easily. And if this trend continues, the Indian women's team will lead the world in the future.
Their performance in this series was really good, but it will be too early to say that they will dominate women's cricket similar to what their male counterparts do. One of the main reasons why players such as Harmanpreeet are performing this good is due to their participation in franchise leagues around the world. She has participated in both the W100 (Manchester Originals) and the WBBL (Melbourne Renegades, Sydney Thunder). The same can be said about some of the other players in the squad as well.
Well, it is a little too early to say that they are going to be as good as their male counterpart. But with all the problems that are going on in men's cricket, I think they are not very far away. In men's cricket, there are a lot of problems because there is the problem of having a big4.  and those for teams trying to hold onto the power that they have over the ICC and not letting the smaller teams play regularly. I think women's cricket is doing quite well right now and even though I don't think women's cricket will also be safe from these types of problems but right now I have hope.


The good thing is now BCCI taking WIPL seriously, they are about to issue tenders for the media rights etc soon.

I think a big reason why the BCCI is actually considering giving WIPL  a chance is that The Indian women have performed really well in recent times.  and with the recent win against England in the ODI, the Indian women have proved that they can perform really well against bigger opponents. So I think it is the right time for BCCI to arrange WIPL and set the tempo for the future of women's cricket.

Barcelona has won their last two away matches against Real Madrid. And in both matches Barcelona players dominated. Barcelona won 4-0 against Real Madrid in last season's away match. So even if the next match is Real Madrid's home match, Barcelona will definitely win if they play well.
But with Real Madrid's consistency now, they are very difficult to beat. Real Madrid played amazingly against Atletico Madrid in the last match. And so, the next match of Barcelona vs Real Madrid will definitely be competitive and enjoyable. So far the chances of both teams winning are 50-50.
Grin What is the point of remembering that victory of Barcelona in a game that no longer decided anything for Real? Real Madrid by that time had already solved the problem of the championship in La Liga and was focused on the Champions League. Plus, since that game, the compositions of both teams have changed significantly - in fact, Barcelona has become a different team altogether, and Real have made small changes. I agree that it will be an interesting game, but there is no point in linking it with the results of previous meetings.
Surely now there is no point for having these games for future but still we can talk about future games which are going to have big impact on this league end because with current form Real Madrid is surely having big advantage, and they are not allowing any opponent for giving them tough challenge, but Barcelona has never been easy team for them and with current performance level both are level and with this all most chances matches between these two teams are going to decide who is going to be winner of this season because Real Madrid beats Atlético Madrid which is amazing stuff from them with this now we have no easy game for Barcelona against Real Madrid.

Still if they are able to play like they already play against them in past two games then most chances they are going to be winner because they are surely having the toughest defense in this league.

@KTChampions, if I recall correctly, Real Madrid did not have any problems if they lost El Clasico, the last EL Classico of the last season against Barcelona. In fact, Real Madrid had the goal of winning the Champions League as their main goal and they have completely succeeded in that target. There was no point in Real Madrid giving any importance to the El Clasico because at that point it didn't matter, and Real Madrid knew that very well.

Thus, I do not think there is any reason to think that Barcelona will have a good track record against Real Madrid in the future. And honestly, I really don't think Barcelona will be able to win in the upcoming El Clasico.
