Yesterday’s match was interesting as both teams were trying hard to outdo each other on the pitch. I followed the game until the 76th minute and I must say that Arsenal look better this season. Mikel Arteta has stepped up his game this season with new strategies to pursue the league and new additions who are making impact already. The boys should good composure last night especially after getting a red card, they didn’t panic or lose focus rather they stayed together and defended their one goal lead until full time.

I am not yet convinced with arsenals performance this season they did better last season compared to what they are currently playing now and other small clubs are even playing better this season and with the way Arsenal is playing, I feel it will even become more difficult for them to win the premier league since they did well last season I felt since they have tested glory they will want to improve and try to win this season but not with this performance, and Arteta needs to step up and change strategy am not feeling this arsenal, they played but could not score is not nice at all we need goals the season is fresh we need the whole point now so that when it gets hard we don't struggle that much again.

Boys in my country start gambling from below eighteen years of age and they are gambling day and night in different casino sites. Moreover, in reality, many people are gathering gambling together with money. In fact, their family is very rich, so they are investing here because they have a lot of money. I have seen many people gamble by selling their assets but they are only greedy to make extra money.

My advice to these youths is to stop gambling and do now study and not give extra money from their families. Only necessary money will be given to their children.

In my own region, boys below eighteen are already placing bets since there is an eighteen-plus regulation but agents don't bother to check for IDs or anything to make a proper confirmation, since the younger ones feel they also need money and they have responsibility how hilarious, and rich people gamble with there friends to discuss reasonable issues in business and looking at there status they financially dependent, and some times they get greedy too but look at the situation were gambling has eaten deep into an average man's life selling off his or her property is expected.

Crystal Place lost the match due to their goalkeeper mistake but goalkeeper should not be blamed as they tried their best to save a goal. However we know Arsenal are a strong team and they haven't been attacking very well with Castiel playing well between the two teams. Although Arsenal won the game by a goal in the second half, the players of Crystal Place attacked enough later on. And a player was sent off for a foul which gave Arsenal more opportunities to score but still failed to do so. Crystal Place played well in all aspects and tried their best to draw the match but could not fight enough. All the Arsenal players played superbly and they always followed the winning performance which led them to win the match.

This season is already scaring me, arsenal did play well in time of touches and ball possession but they were finding it difficult to score and Odegaard scored the only goal for Arsenal during the second half, and it with was even a penalty shoot-out, and Arsenals attack is sincerely becoming weaker, the people we are expecting to do better are already spoiling things look at manchester united and Chelsea and see other smaller clubs are doing better this season, and this season has enough red card almost every game one player must get a red card, but the majority of clubs still stand well despite the red card and arsenal really need to work on the attack. it was now looking as if the game will end draw.

On the 2nd week several favorite teams were defeated by opponents Manchester United were defeated by Tottenham Newcastle was defeated by Manchester City and Chelsea defeated by West Ham obviously this is beyond our expectations even though we know that all the teams were defeated while playing away but still this is not a good start each of these teams must evaluate the defense because there are clearly weaknesses there, especially when against a strong team.
This season is going to be different all the small clubs are on fire and lashing goals on big teams and am disappointed especially with manchester united and Chelsea, just imagine Tottenham that did not even make it to the top five last season is already flogging Manchester united 2:0 and there performance was almost equal but goals were still reading and stopping at two goals. And as for Chelsea, I thought the new season was new Chelsea, and after so much money they spent should at least put themselves to good use, after west ham was down by one man they still added the third goal how disappointing.

I think West Ham and Chelsea is going to be a very interesting game... I like the way West Ham played last season, they were probably better than Chelsea... But today I expect a serious fight and maybe Chelsea will win... A good bet would be both teams to score...

Is going to be an interesting game Chelsea has improved this season and I feel Chelsea has a hedge against west ham watching Chelsea's last match I was actually impressed with how they played especially Sterling and Chelsea is coming in with the squad so it going to be interesting and since both of the clubs drew there last matches lets see who is going to win in today's game because am very sure they wont draw today.

The game between Manchester United and Totthenham is actually heating up as they are in the second half of the game,as Totthenham leads by a goal to nothing.It is increasingly becoming likely that Manchester United might loose that game with the way Totthenham are pressuring them.I don't really know the formation that Harry Ten Hag used that is making his boys feel so scared to play Spurs.The game is live as Man u continue to suffer in the hands of Spurs through possession and  and goal threat.The best thing I see Hen Tag does in this game is to make some possible changes that will make them score,and try to defend it so the game will end draw,because if time is not taken, Totthenham will score another goal,and that will be the end for Man u.

The  game actually shocked me how Manchester united flopped against Tottenham but actually Manchester united was at disadvantage since they lack attack and all there attempts to get osimen was all void, and just has you predicted the game ended 2:0 and am sure no one would have expected Manchester united to loose against Tottenham, the goal threat were much and it was now looking has if Manchester United are confused, I hope this performance won't continue with Manchester united so that they won't be worst than Chelsea last season, Manchester united need to improve i was not impressed at all. And manchester city vs Newcastle still ongoing.

Brighton managed to beat Wolves 4-1 away in the second week of the league.Brighton made a good start to the league with 2 wins in two weeks.If we look at the statistics of the match, we can see that both teams had the same level of scoring chances, but it was the away team Brighton who took advantage of the positions with a clear difference.The first half ended 0-1 and Brighton scored 3 more goals in 10 minutes at the beginning of the second half and increased the difference to 4 in 55 minutes and secured the match.
Brentford, on the other hand, after drawing with Totthenham in the first week, managed to increase their points to 4 by winning against Fulham today.Fulham, on the other hand, defeated Everton away in the first week, but we can say that it has actually become more difficult to turn the match for Fulham, who saw a red card and became 10 men.

I was shocked by the performance of Brighton and the way they were lunching attacks on Wolverhampton I was just too surprised, I think now we can separate the goats from the sheep we are already getting to know clubs that will do well this season just imagining the season is just starting and some clubs are fucking up already, its good to have a scoring chance but let it not be chances goals that is what is needed, the margin is clear and Brighton took advantage of the game, and just look at the margin of time that goals were scored when they started the second half, am actually impressed with the performance of Brighton.

Liverpool Vs Bournemouth

The first 45 minutes have seen Liverpool dominate in everything in this game and the scoreline ended in their favour 2:1. Despite the quick goal that was scored by Antoine Semenyo in the 3rd minute of the game Liverpool was able to get a reply and managed to get the second goal that was score my Mohamed Salah to give them an edge over the visitors. It's going to be all three points for the home team I think because they have been the better team so far this first 45 minute.


Liverpool took control during the first half and Salah is always the man that puts a smile on the faces of Liverpool fans after two goals on record already, and Liverpool has to be smart if not watching how Bournemouth is playing is dangerous and the strength of Liverpool is Mohammed Salah very amazing player and the second half just started and Liverpool already putting pressure on Bournemouth already and very sure they will still add another goal making it 3:1 the pressure is getting intense. and they are already one man down. it is getting tougher than expected.

Agree with you, it is very risky to do business now when most countries are experiencing inflation. I'll also be securing the money in assets for now, and maybe doing a little experimenting on real estate if the opportunity and location are strategic. I think besides being safe, nowadays the opportunity to earn less is guaranteed from building a business from scratch.

In the future, if conditions are stable and financially supportive, there's nothing wrong with trying to build a business because it's a challenge worth trying.

Not only business life entire is a risk and sometimes the risk is worth taking because one has to learn to take risks, to be successful, and only a few businesses are surviving this period this inflation is hitting the economy hard, and capital is another thing to consider money don't even have value anymore, so you still need enough money to start any kind of business, starting business now is just another risky thing to go into but has humans we must take risk.

There is a lot of suspense surrounding the forthcoming game between Manchester City and Newcastle United. Despite the difficulties presented by injuries in their previous game, Manchester City chance to win after their recent success against Sevilla is obvious. Strong defensive play and the desire for a top four finish by Newcastle add an element of intrigue. Manchester city might edge Newcastle 1-0 thanks to their superior tactical skills but Newcastle tenacious manager and talented squad could present a formidable challenge. In a thrilling Premier league confrontation the contest promises to highlight the skills and tactics of both team.

It going to be difficult to predict looking at the manpower of both clubs, I think Newcastle has been seriously preparing for this game and manchester city has played finals and to some extent will affect them in a way compared to Newcastle who has played only very few matches, and looking at their last game against Sevilla and despite the injury, their aim was to equalize since the game was not in their favor, so that when the penalty shootout starts they might get luck, and aside there good attacks manchester city also has a very strong defense mechanism, and talking of the 1:0 it can come from both clubs and might end draw. and of the sincere truth manchester city is supposed to be worried about Newcastle they are one of a kind, a type of not allowing you to score kind of club.

If you don't have any experience on business field the. Start from scratch so you would provably know what are important things that needed to take care with in a business.

But if you are well established businessman and can able to plant some on existing business then its good since you don't need to worry on how to market it because they already have establish their own brand. Its up to you on how can you maximize your bought  businesses so that it can generate you more money.

The experience is to be considered and in the absence of experience, I think a reach will help also get ideas from does doing the same business or similar, going into a business undergoing process help and reduces risk. I personally encourage mentorship aside from building you in business it builds your personality, I personally go with what you are saying about already established businesses having a lot of advantages since already laid knowledge is easier to go along with the market, compared to building a new idea, which ever making a smart decision will be best.

Manchester City's performance against Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup final seems to be a poor performance compared to last season. Many may say that Sevilla's performance has improved compared to before but I would say Sevilla's performance was not good but Manchester City's poor performance is why Sevilla did so well in the UEFA Super Cup final against Manchester City.

No one expected Sevilla to display such a performance, it was looking as if they got superpowers from somewhere, the pressure was much on manchester city on that day of the final, how hilarious how Haaland was running if he can actually score a goal, but all means were blocked, am in my rating Sevilla have seriously improved, but towards the ending, the table turned and manchester city also started retaliating in attacks, and since they later equalized and the penalty shoot-out will be an advantage to manchester city since all there players can score and are good finishers that one of the major advantage.


I wasn’t impressed by Manchester City's performance, they performed poorly against Sevilla. Manchester City was just lucky to beat Sevilla in the match, Sevilla had lots of opportunities. I don’t really know why Manchester City didn’t perform well in the match, maybe it’s because of De Bruyne's injury. I think Pep Guardiola has to look for a replacement for De Bruyne because he will be going for surgery and he won’t be coming back soon. Let’s see how Manchester City will perform against Newcastle in their next match. I know it won’t really be easy for Manchester City.


Despite playing poorly, they still managed to win the game, and Manchester City was wise enough to tie it up and force a penalty shootout, which ultimately went in City's favor and led to their victory after all of Sevilla's pressure. They still have a great distance to travel., so Pepe is right to be concerned. What irritated me was the missed opportunity that Sevilla threw up, which made it their fault for losing the game because, if you count the number of opportunities they had, they would have won with ease. De Brunyne's absence also cost them that game. and will still cost them in other games
833  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria Announced to increase fuel to 720 on: August 18, 2023, 11:03:20 AM
Omo nawa ooo, this country e get as e be ooo, people nava recover from the first fuel price way be 520 naira and they increase it to 620 e nava do them just this morning it was announced that fuel should be sell on the rate 720 naira per litter, things are really going to be though in this country, maybe the only way for us to survive is to diversify our means of transportation by going for electric car or motorcycle just like a topic created on this thread on how electric car will help to remedy lack of movement caused by increase of fuel, this is actually the time for it.

The cost of living in this country is something else ooh Very soon the price will rise to 1000 per litter, and the annoying part of it is that the increase has greatly affected food stuffs, things we normally buy on a certain amount is no longer sell on that way. Even gas price has also increase, the question now is that how much more can Nigerians take?

I think the government is already doing something about the price they are looking for a way to regulate the price, people are getting tired of the whole situation once the fuel price is affected then any other thing is affected especially transportation and commodities in the market, and I think this is the time for the government to start engineering strategies to improve how the mode of transportation talk, buy a liter for 720 is just huge and people are really going through a lot bro if want to know that people are going through a lot, step out in the city and check the street you will know what am talking about, sometimes it pains me that our politicians are cruel and have taken advantage of the people, and the living can not even afford its own standards anymore due to situations.
834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Easy or hard to quit? on: August 18, 2023, 10:05:26 AM
I would say it depends entirely on one's will and goals. If I win a life-changing amount of money, I stop playing big. Because now I have money in my hands and I want to invest it in other ways. I don't want to take any more risks with the money I have earned. I'll go for areas that will bring me a daily income and I won't worry about making money for the rest of my life. For this reason, I would not stop gambling, but I think I will play even if it is for pleasure. Thanks to the high amount I won, I can say that taking such a risk again will cause very big problems, so I don't think I will choose to take such a bet again.

I don't believe that moving in that direction will benefit you. The issue is that once you win big, the temptation to bet big gradually creeps in because we have the perception that anything that involves money requires us to invest energy. I am aware of people who have placed bets and already made calculations in their heads, forgetting that a potential win does not guarantee that you will win, I'm sure of that. Bet is interesting if it is properly managed, managing it is difficult because sometimes looking at does odds is quite tempting, if greed can be controlled then half of the problem is solved. And getting others means to earn is the best and playing for pleasure is OK cause thats what I do.

Right from last season Newcastle have been thus team that has been transforming and looking like a threat to big teams in premier league.  Looking at Newcastle they will really do well this season and will be a nightmare to team like Manchester city. Manchester City and Newcastle meeting will an interesting game that Manchester City won't find it easy. In all the games that Manchester City have played this it was only the game they played against Burnley that was easy for them, Manchester City against arsenal was a tough game because arsenal have quality squad,  this is the same way Newcastle will be tough against City.

Newcastle is known for their amazing performance since they get all the encouragement from their owner and am very sure they also don't want to disappoint him, and last season they were not just an ordinary threat but a serious one, the problem is not debatable they will definitely do well, and the way clubs are to play this season it not going to be an easy season for manchester city and that is what I wanted, other clubs need to start cooking something and disarm manchester city and now that de Brune is not available it is a loophole for the city, and Burnley did well but no goals, cities still have great competitors ahead.


Also, a certain problem for Manchester City is the fact that the team has just played a UEFA Super Cup match, unlike Newcastle United, which, after the match with Aston Villa, has been systematically preparing for the match with City all week. At least, Pep Guardiola criticized the English Premier League that the match was set for Saturday, not Sunday or Monday, and sarcastically expressed many thanks. Although, of course, Guardiola, together with his staff and with his experience, should neutralize the negative consequences of this, but the fact remains. Newcastle has a definite advantage because of this.

And Even the supa cup was a great challenge for manchester city a lot of energy was used because even Sevilla was not joking with manchester city at all on the pitch, and the absence of de Brune again will also affect them how hilarious that Newcastle has been seriously preparing against manchester city is going to be an interesting game and my prediction is either Newcastle win or the game ends in a draw, I fully go with what you said about Newcastle having the advantage. even without the 1 week preparation newcastle is hard nut to crack.

Nowadays it is not the same as before, because what men can do today most women can do. And the other thing is that they even surpass the men in truth. Especially when it comes to business or entrepreneur.

And even based on statistics, it appears that women are better at managing than men, though it's still mostly men who manage their businesses.

The world is changing  and women are even doing better than men, I think it still depends on the sector, there some sectors that women won't be that productive, women do well in the business and entrepreneurship sectors they come up with brilliant ideas that can grow businesses like fashionand the rest, there women that own business that do very well in management, I feel women needs to be encourage, women need to come out of the shell one of the factors affecting us in this region is that only few women are given the opportunity to actually display there talent in anything of there choice. And emotions is also there every business has its own challenges so how many can with stand without breaking down.

Indeed, investment in real estate has the potential to be highly profitable and means of achieve financial success, particularly when approached  with intensive research, planning and ability  to hold it for extended period of time. The lessons I learned from my personnel experience of investments in real estate suggest that location is everything when we invest in property, and returns on commercial property investment are comparatively better than residential.

Investing in real estate has a lot of profit it is not for ordinary people that can go into real estate and one of the problem people are still facing globally is the issue of housing  the population is growing and affordability of housing is also increasing so is not even everyone that can have access to good housing. And even the government is finding it difficult to make provision of houses available, location to matters and it have its own way of affecting the price, ordinary person can not start going into but is everybody's  dream to own an estate, aside the money investors make from it, a very big solution to to the housing industry.

I have to says Sevilla was displayed good performance yesterday that although Manchester City playing agressive since the beginning of match but Sevilla can focus and they can able to managed their defense with very well but indeed penalty shot out result is very hard to predicted because it depend on the players mentally themself and Manchester City have been proven that they have champion mentality which make they can able to through an this match with the winning result

Apparently 2023 is Manchester City year because at this year they can able to achieve several trophies including Europa Super Cup trophy yesterday and this is first trophy for Manchester City for this event besides that Guardiola has personal records because during his managerial career Guardiola has been collected 4 Europa Super Cup trophies and his achievement is equal to Ancelotti

Everyone that actually watched the match between sevila and manchester city will actually know sevila was on fire and they were giving manchester city a very though time even to score and even haaland was struggling yesterday to score and was no way and even walker was putting effort to score but all chances were blocked by sevila players, and manchester city managed to win and they were pushing hard to go too a penalty shoot out, since its a 50/50 thing is either they win or they lose and and what i was angry about how sevila had good chances to score and they were unlucky and finally they won the super cup and manchester did well this season, but the way things are going his season is not going to be an easy one at all, and guadiola will start getting worried with the performance other clubs are coming with this season.

Overtime I hardly made use of twitter account and it calls to my noticed that twitter logo was replaced to X instead of the previous logo. Now I was curious to know why such thing happened and why change logo X, does it positively affect the users in any way?
I don't know how many of you are regular user of twitter since I barely relates over there and I noticed is not cool for me to always use since the sold out to Elon Musk that was my ending love of using that social network.

If topic already existed I don't mind locking this thread.

And i actually like the formal twitter logo it was different and unique i don't really fancy this new logo which is x and i feel elon is trying to use this name for all is assets starting from tesla and space x and i think elon is even more obsessed with the space project i think that is were the x is coming from, and some times i have problem identifying twitter since i have to start looking for x and since we the user does not have a say on how he runs is business if not for that am very sure a lot of users are not that comfortable with the way elon change the name and the logo and very soon tesla to might have a change of name over time and since elon has interest in crypto he might invest in a project and also call it x.

Manchester City team is expected to defeat Newcastle for sure. However, since KBD is injured, Manchester City's attack may be a bit weak. But I hope that Pep Guardiola will fix that place wisely.

it won't be that easy the way you're saying it in a way Newcastle is currently on fire, it is looking as if every club is on fire and the season is just starting, and plenty of clubs are ready this season for manchester city, is not doing to be an easy ride for them this season, and de brune not present to has its own effect on Haaland since he gives haaland one of the best assist, and they clearly needs to start adjusting to the new development, let us see the outcome of the game.


Seeing how poorly City play against a weak Sevilla, I'm not at all sure that City can beat a strong Newcastle. Given that both City and Newcastle are good defensively, I'd rather bet on BTTS No than on the victory of one of the teams. It seems that the KDB injury could break City's plans for this season (the main thing is that the competitors do well).

How surprising and interesting the game is and how Sevilla is seriously putting pressure on manchester city, and losing a very good opportunity to score, am actually impressed with Sevilla's performance tonight, but with this pressure, I expected more goals from them and manchester city is has already equalized and what happened during the community shield with arsenal is somehow repeating itself again playing 1:1 and pressure is now coming from both sides and something is telling me Sevilla will win this game, to some extent they actually do deserve it.
