Arsenal are said to be okay about parting their ways with Aaron Ramsdale at the end of the season. I don't understand why Arsenal have given up on him in the first place. I don't believe he is a bad goalkeeper. He has really been impressive with his nice saves after joining Arsenal as well. But suddenly they have just given up and decided to continue with David Raya.

Maybe they don't want two solid goalkeepers in the squad at the same time I don't know. Because when you have this situation the one to whom you don't give much chance could get unhappy and would like to leave by himself.

Just maybe, really. They don’t want two solid goalkeeprrs which I still dont want to believe that could be the case because on what reason will Arteta discard Ramsdale so easily. I may not have watched some of the matches he has fumbled but to a very great extent, Ramsdale have performed exceptionally well in his career with Arsenal. I liked the ganeplay of the guy and was enjoying him at a point. Suddenly we noticed a change when the champions league started, David Raya took over from Ramsdale like play and up till now, Ramsdale havent gotten that sit back. And i’m wondering what could be the cause of this decision taken by Arteta and i’m still left in the dilemma until today.

Al Ittihad tried so hard to hire Salah in this season and this team offered him enough money to make us think Salah is going to leave Liverpool son even if he is an important player for Liverpool but Liverpool was getting close to selling him to earn some money from this player but they didn't do that and it seems Al Ittihad is now going to try to start having a negotiation with Julian Ward the

https://www.empireofthekop.com/2023/11/29/julian-ward-al-ittihad-salah-liverpool/

Salah is a no-go area for the Saudi Pro League now not when he still gets his relevance from the English league. One thing I have noticed with the english leagues is competitiveness and popularity. Because the huge investments that the europe is putting into the soccer games, it has made it very popular amomgst other leagues in the world. It is always a dream come through for most players to get featured at the UEFA Champions League. It is because of this that I heavily think that it is impossible for Salah to live for the SPL now.
602  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Can someone explain ? Educated people but all they do is just scam on: November 30, 2023, 08:22:21 AM
I think education is supposed to be an enlightenment for any person out there seeking for exposure and intelligence quotient. For someone who's willing to widen his horizon of thinking and accelerate his capacity to understand a diverse approach to life. This is what education gives you.

Ordinarily, aquiring education, after all the above mentioned features, is supposed to put the learner into some shape of critical thinking, capacity to analyze and weigh things in more constructive way and the ability to solve realtime problems. Unfortunately, many have used the same knowledge they have acquired to harm peiple and negstively impart ofn the lives of people because of their ill-thinking.

These corrupt minded individuals are mostly affected by societal vices, parental upbringing and the influence of peer groups.

The Society have greatly influenced how we think overtime and one can category that as an external factor that either possitively or negatively influence the thinking faculty of people. Some people are naturally endowed with understanding and the ease of learning new things, instead of these positive attributes of the person to positively impact on them, due to the societal vices that the person is exposed to, it inversely and gradually become negative to them and their environment.

Because of the bond and love that parents try to show to their kids since from childhood, some parents negatively impart on their thoughts and instead of the love and care to make the child a better person in the society, they become too ambitious and prodigal which then negatively affect their thinking and education. Likewise, parents who do are negligent in the proper upbringing of their wards.

Last is the influence of peer groups which is also an external factor mostly gotten through the society. A wrong society breeds wrong association which now gives birth to wrong peer groups. Since education and knowledge is not a natural phenomenon but a decision that is taken by man and a proccess passed through, it doesn’t stop one from being affected by bad friends and that’s why the popular adage says, show me your friends and I will let you know of yourself. It is therefore imperative to associate and build relationship with good firends and progressive minds.

1. Is it necessary for everyone to identify with their local boards and participate in the board discussions?
2. I would love to get a detailed aim For each of the local board and also know the kind of thread that's best to be created in the local board.
3. If it's necessary to participate in the activity of the local board, what happens to the people whose local board is not in the forum.

1. It is not a necessity on the forum that you must participate in your local board because it is just another board or sub-board in the forum like any other. But it is of great impact to anyone who participate in the local board. Not only is it impactful, it is also interesting and fun as you will be in pace with the current situations and realities that are peculiar to your language and country.

The advantage of this goes beyond just learning but also gives you the oppotunity and platform to teach others in the community and keep youtself enlightened about bitcoin and other related and non-related topics within your location.

2. I dont think there’s any spelt out aims to engage in your local boards. However, the broader objectives of participating in your local board is not far fetched from the reasons I mentioned above. Which is invariably to solve problems peculiar to your location, bring up brainstorming ideas and join other life related conversations.

3. This question has been answered here by a member above so I don’t need to answer it again.

As a newbie it is good to ask questions like this so you can help inform other newbies eager to know why the loca boards exist.

Well done!

Disregard news like this, Carlo Ancellotti wouldn't be leaving for a commercial club like Manchester United. Manchester United owners and directors have not motives of sacking Manchester United coach Erik Ten Hag. If they're really interested in rebuilding then they should have some level of patience with the Dutch Man.
As for Carlo Ancellotti, he'll not he leaving Real Madrid and even if he wants to leave, I definitely sure that he'll move to manage the Brazil National Team.

Let's assume Ancelotti will be leaving Real Madrid, how on earth will someone speculate his leaving Real Madrid for Manchester United. I think that's the least expected club amongst these big clubs that I can expect Ancelotti to go to right now. He won't be ready to choose Manchester United for Brazil National Team any time soon because of his career. It's an honor and privilege for any manager to manage the Brazil National Team, especially as a non-brazilian citizen. A number of their former star players, fans, citizens amongst other analysts are already against that move to bring Ancelotti who's an Italian to the national team as the manager of the Brazil National Team.

Most of these critics are using the cultural differences and the difference in language as the major reason why they are not comfortable with the move but I'm pretty sure the president of the team knows his reason for pitching Ancelotti to come manage the National Team and I'm sure he has the support of other top management officials in this move. While their outcry is not ignoring to me, I do not think that will stop the president from bringing Ancelotti to the national team. But again, the news about Ancelotti moving to Manchester United can not be true until proven officially by a direct statement from the president of the club and I don't think Ancelotti will buy into that offer as well.

Jersey sales should not be restricted to Spain only. There will be a significant number of jersey sales in France and Europe. In fact, since Mbappe's jerseys are of African origin, they can break sales records even in Africa. Big players suit a big stadium. Mbappe may be associated with Real Madrid for many years. I think the jersey will suit Kylian very well.

Oh yes please. Jersey sales should not be limited to Spain alone. It won't even make sense in the most realistic sense. Now they should allow Africa to release Jerseys for sales too because we are diversifying now and football and soccer is becoming more grounded in that part of the world. Asia and the significant part of Europe too should sell Jersey while the middle east is capable of doing that with the top players it has brought on board now. Let us continue to expand the tentacles and allow more involvement across all the continents. Every continent is capable of doing these things in the great way.
605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: November 29, 2023, 06:37:50 AM
Yes, I heard the news that Ancelotti will leave Real Madrid after this season ends. So, Real Madrid should be prepare to hire a new coach for the next season. I already heard the rumors about some candidates for the next coach but I only assume that Zidane is the best option for the next coach. If Zidane becomes the coach, it will be a special attraction for Real Madrid. I believe it will raise the chance to sign Mbappe or even other top players like Haaland or Osimhen. Every player expects to work together with Zidane because Zidane is a special coach who wins UCL trophies.

It is true that Ancelotti already started the regeneration of Real Madrid squad. There are many young players in Real Madrid squad now. If they sign new striker and more young defenders, the regeneration will be complete.



Let's assume Zidane was able to replace Ancelotti as the next manager of the Real Madrid club, I don't think Haaland will switch to Real Madrid or Mbappe switching to Real Madrid. Although, I would have preferred to see Haaland in Real Madrid so that he can consolidate the efforts currently put into scoring goals by Bellingham since the team is currently doing well with that young player. 

If Haaland won't come, let Victor Osimhen come to the club instead. He's another goal machine that can make things happen for the Real Madrid as he players collaboratively with the efforts of Bellingham. I don't think even Barcelona can easily stand such powerful team with Zidane, a former player, being the manager at the same time.

Xavi rotates too much in La Liga so it is very difficult for Barcelona to maintain its performance. The draw he achieved when he visited Rayo Vallecano headquarters might not have happened if he fielded a full team line-up. The epic comeback that Barcelona just made in the UCL proves how solid the game shown by this senior player is.

I agree with you on Xavi's rotation in the La Liga but I think he loves it that way. I won't say Xavi is not trying right now as the manager of Barcelona because it takes much courage and consistency to continue to manage a big club like Barcelona and put the squad depth in order strategically. But he needs to put his eyes in other leagues too outside the La Liga so he can have a good feel of hoe it's played out there as a part of his records in his professional career.
606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 29, 2023, 06:28:12 AM
Well I agree that Manchester City's strength is not as great as in the past and we also know that several important players have left Manchester City because they want to look for new challenges and experiences in other leagues this clearly has an impact on Manchester City's strength even though it doesn't have a significant impact, that's why we see Manchester City losing in the last few matches.

You know why Manchester City has not experienced a significant blow from the exit of some of its players from the past seasons, also to also add to that, is the injury that some of the players have went into in this season, yet the club is still standing on its feet and performing with the best efforts they can, it is simply because they have the best manager who works with whatever he has as a team and have value for teamwork.

He's a team player and doesn't underrate talents and is not tired of getting more talents into the play. He's none other than Pep Guardiola. I love Pep for one thing, he is focused on the goal and doesn't nag out of complains for the misfortunes they may have passed through but look into the woes and work hard to ammend the mistakes. This is why Manchester City kept progressing without that magnificent squad depth you might have expected.

If Arsenal could continue to win their games in the Premier League, I think Arsenal will be able to win the Premier League trophy because they were able to beat Manchester City this season, and that is what caused them to lose the  Premier League trophy to Manchester City last season. Arsenal should score a lot of goals so that they will be able to have more goals than Manchester City.

I think Arsenal have all it takes to win this trophy with Mikel Arteta. When he was with Manchester City, he took two Premier League titles for the club, one FA Cup and two EFL Cups for Manchester City. Now that he's in Arsenal, he as also worked out two trophies for the club which includes FA Cup and Community Shield since 2019.

All he needs to do is to use the squads at his disposal efficiently. Saka is promising, Trossard is promising, Gabriel Jesus, and Martinelli have also been promising in the forwards, as a matter of fact, Saka assisted with the last goal Arsenal scored Brentford while the goal was netted by Havert. At the midfield, Havert, Odegaard, Declan Rice and Fabio Vieira have been promising and delivering too. Zinchenko, Tomiyasu, Williams Saliba and a host of other defenders have not been doing bad as well. So, I think the club have the chances and the strength to win this trophy with this crop of young players.

However, it is difficult to implement, everyone certainly has the goal of making a profit, but in our journey of holding Bitcoin, many things happen that are outside of our control.
If we look at Bitcoin price movements since the past, no one should have doubts about better prices in the future, but the negative news and price drops that occur sometimes cause panic.
Plus, urgent needs in real life sometimes thwart the plans we have built from the start.

In an effort to store or maintain Bitcoin for a long period of time, such as planning from the start, there are many things that must first be thought through carefully, including when we first enter this investment we must be prepared with everything so that our goals are achieved.

Whenever I have the opportunity, I do mention that as one works towards investing in Bitcoin for the long time, he/she should always try the DCA approach in his investment. Especially for those who have small capitals to inject into it. The benefit of using the Dollar cost averaging is that it helps you to monitor the process and changes at the same time. You are able to tell at what point should you add more investments, and at what point should you reduce your investments, even though you have more to invest.

It is good to advise anyone investing into anything including bitcoin to always have some money reserved with hi. For contingency sake. There are things that will likely come up in your life as you move on that are in need of urgent attention and practically unavoidable, one of which can be health related or any other thing else, regardless, one should always have something reserved for contingency and this should be aside from the money you must have kept for your day-to-day upkeep.

Making these,provisions outside your investment will help you to consistently invest with a budget and will help you to manage the investment growth evern more effectively since you don't have to come into the investment funds to solve those force majeures.

The summary of this whole thing na your last sentence wey say we gat be disciplined with our spending this time around. Na now person really need to cut coat according to size. The way things dey go now, if nothing is don, problem go dey o. Even people wey been dey do well before, most of them are crying unto say nothing dey. Even some people wey dey work still dey struggle to feed their families.

Even when we dey encourage people to spend wisely, make we try also support people to get alternative sources of income wey go fit dey support.

This your matter make sense. We need to really help people with the alternative source of incomes if possible. If you have ideas on how people can make extra incomes don't alway hesitate to share it with the young folks. I don't why I always call on the young folks without mentioning the older people too.

This hard economic crisis have not only bited the young people but have also affected our old ones. Our parents and other senior citizens. Why I don't always call them first whenever I address poverty is not because poverty doesn't have anything to do with them but because they have more discipline and tolerance level than we do. In the society of today, before you mention an old man or woman who perpetrated in any form of violence as a result of lack of money, you must have counted 100 of related cases to young people. Because the younger ones are more desperate and have this youthful exuberant that always consume them to such crimes.

This is why I would usually mention that we look back at our younger ones and see how we can assist with any support we can render them in terms of incentives or income generating ideas or jobs that can fetch them something, else, our old ones are also in dire need of money and have been greatly affected by the economy downturn too.

I also don't like to specify this but sometimes e be like say we dey forget say our elder/younger sisters need help too in terms of finances and are very much affected by the current economic recession we are facing today. To the level that some of them battle with their underwears and other upkeep as basic as you can ever imagine. Guys, please involve your sisters in trades and any idea or strategy that can fetch them income. They need it at this moment, probably, more than you do right now.

It is surely not impossible for leaving the teams in January transfer window. Moreover, it is the latest chance of the teams to earn money from the players. So, I'm not surprised if Mbappé, Jorginho, or Rabiot decides to leave their current teams in the January transfer window. Especially for Mbappe, I think Real Madrid will try to sign him again in the January transfr window. Having Mbappe in Real Madrid will strengthen Real Madrid squad in competing for the title.

Who know if Mbape and PSG are playing psychological games with the public. It's true that the money offered from other clubs especially Saudi Arabia was one of the biggest deal of his life and yet he rejected, he could have come in good terms with Real Madrid back then but he turn down the offer, I'm sure he didn't do it because he was given some captainship to control the team, it was something special, don't fold if by next transfer time and Mbape refused to go anywhere.

Well, I think Mbappe knows best of why he has remained in PSG even after getting much interests from other clubs especially from the Saudi Pro League. Maybe it could not be different from some of Messi’s reason for staying in Barcelona that long, even though there are some clear differences but like messi, I think Mbappe has been highly dignified by the club and the management continues to give him that special recognition in the decision-making of the club. I heard he sits on the table of making decisions on how the first eleven is formed. I don’t know but these may be the reasons why he’s enjoying his stay in the club. He’s given a good pay, however.
610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 26, 2023, 09:45:51 AM
Manchester City was very ambitious to win this match, Guardiola tried to direct his men to continue to pressure Liverpool, a number of attack attempts by Manchester City were unable to break down Liverpool's defense which resulted in the match ending in a draw. Losing two points meant Manchester City had to drop to second place because in another match Arsenal managed to get an additional three points at Brentford headquarters. This time Klopp managed to stop Manchester City by stealing one point at the Etihad Stadium. This result met Klopp's initial target because he realized that it was very difficult to win at Manchester City's headquarters.

It is this kind of draw that clubs like Liverpool will celebrate wholeheartedly. Because I didnt expected Liverpool to be that consistent in maintaining a draw especially when I saw that it was easy for Haaland to net the first goal in the 27th minutes of the first half. I thought that will turn out as a doomsday for Liverpool in the second half, couple that Manchester City was playing at home. I thought it will become an advantage for Manchester City going forward.

My assumptions changed the moment in the second half after Klopps substitutions which in no time Salah was able to give a great assist to  Aenold who balanced the match with an equalizer goal. This have gained Liverpool an extra one point and affected Manchester City to top the table and on the other hand given Arsenal the edge to lead the table once again with the goal they scored in yesterday's match against Brentford. Some draws are like loss in some instances. Interestingly.

Barcelona draw 1-1 with rayo vallecano and were forced to share the points. Unai Lopez's goal gave Rayo a first-half lead. Barcelona were relieved in the 82nd minute by an own goal from Florian Lejeune when he tried to block Lewandowski's shot. With 31 points from 14 matches, they are sitting at the fourth position in the points table. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid moved to third in the La Liga standings thanks to Griezmann's only goal at home. Atletico Madrid are level with Barcelona on 31 points but still have a game to play.

And yet a member here discredited the efforts Girona have been putting into their games in the league. No club is perfect however strong and powerful they are and can lose or draw any game that they play. Ordinarily, one should expect that barcelona will win all the matches they play with these smaller clubs but they have ended in failing some while drawing at some. That’s the game. This draw have caused Barcelona to fall to the fourth position and Girona at the second position of the league. As far as this season his concerned, they have done tremendiously well in the season of this league.
612  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: NEW RESEARCH CENTER OPENS IN SERBIA'S CAPITAL TO DRIVE BITCOIN INNOVATION on: November 26, 2023, 06:08:42 AM
I've decided to check crypto status in Serbia, and it seems that mining and trading were officially legalized in 2021. I saw an article from March about the Belgrade Bitcoin hub, but it doesn't mention "Hub21". Is that the same hub, or is Hub21 something different? I assume it's a different thing (because it has a different name), but, in that case, how many crypto hubs are there in Serbia? And how is the overall crypto adoption going there? It's just a little hard to understand what's there to discuss without more insight into the situation.

I also came across similar or same March article on Bitcoin Magazine which mentioned the capital, Belgrade is now the latest working and presentation space for Bitcoin. I also learnt that the article was an opinion editorial of the founder of Belgrade Bitcoin Hub , a native of Serbia. I think it's more of a private business owner selling his new business venture and putting out the features of the new hub on the article.

Like he mentioned that:
“The hub features a large, communal, co-working/presentation room where most of the action will be taking place, with two additional rooms that we will outfit into a recording studio and a more private office space.

“At our disposal for visitors we have a variety of hardware wallets, a point-of-sale unit powered by BTCPay Server, a Bitcoin node and an Antminer S9 to experiment with the newest software being developed by the tenants of the space. For educational purposes, or to get extra inspiration, the hub has a small collection of Bitcoin literature for visitors to read.” Source.

This was majorly what I excerpted from the entire article and I think that tells the essence of the bitcoin hub established.
Whereas the HUB21, OP is talking about is another entirely different initiative that was unveiled this month. “A pioneering non-profit association dedicated to education, fostering research, and creating networking avenues within the global Bitcoin design and development ecosystem”. According to the source.

The buttomline is, these are two different platforms and initiatives by Serbians, one seems to be more of a profitable company while the other is a non-profit organization both poised at enhancing the bitcoin knowledge and network amongst the Belgrade community and Serbia at large.
613  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Closing Central Bank is Non-negotiable says pro-bitcoin Argentina Pres Milei on: November 26, 2023, 05:26:57 AM
The newly elected Argentina president Javier Milei have come to the air to announce his decision to shut down the Central Bank of Argentina as one of his new moves as the president of the country. He made mention of this yesterday on his official statement he released on the office’s X social media handle.


This is the image here.

I have tried to translate it to English using Google online translation tool
“PRESS RELEASE
 City of Buenos Aires, November 24, 2023.-

“The Office of the President Elect of the Argentine Republic communicates that the only official information about the future government, headed by Javier Milei, is that published by this medium.

“In that sense, the economist Osvaldo Giordano will be the head of ANSES and the engineer Horacio Marín will be in charge of YPF as of December 10.

“Regarding the President-elect's agenda, this afternoon he will have a telephone conversation with the president of South Korea, Yoon Suk-yeol.

“On the other hand, given the false rumors spread, we wish to clarify that the closure of the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) is not a negotiable matter.”

From the reactions over the social to this humongous decision, a lot of bitcoin users have expressed gratitude and happiness over the decision including the first thread I highlighted here including this other forum thread whereas others have criticised his decision.

However, my question is, if he's going to be shutting down the central bank, what will be the instrument he will put in place of the bank or is he willing to establish a ‘Bitcoin Bank’ or what exactly?

Na money dey bring many wahala wey u dey see in our marriage in d society today because, I don see many marriage wey break because d woman refuse to show d man her bank account personal details after wedding that lead d marriage into divorce. Alcohol and other things don't bring crisis to home like d wey money dey bring issues that will make d two partner begin to see each other as enemy, but it will b a good thing for man and woman to show themselves all their financial personal details if both partners want to live long in peace in d marriage.

I no go show my husband my crypto wallets address because, if issues come up that will lead to break up,the man go benefits for what am working for over some years, but if d man can show all his personal financial details I don't have issues of that and d marriage go last long.

@Zanab I don't think conflicts in marriage is always about the money o. I think this marriage money is now becoming a thing of the past since every lady is working very hard towards financial freedom and independence from the husband. I no talk say e no dey cause problem but mostly na when you turn your wife to a full housewife and would not battle for something like a trade that can bring that wealth of contentment and respect.

As for whether to show your hubby your wallet or not all depends on the individual as one and the your relationship with your husband as second. There are men or women that you never wished them to know your financial strength even as your life partners because they will look for the slightest of opportunities to chest on you. So you avoid that by hiding your financial status. But I get that believe say e no go be like that in all ramifications. Them get good supportive husbands wey go help you protect your wealth to the barest effort they can to make you and your family happy.

Why I feel it's good to share some of these details with people very close to you or at least give them hint is that when you come die, na so the money will go rotten in the wallet and in the case of fiat, in the bank accounts. Hence the need to get one trustworthy person to hint of your financial details.

El Salvador, which opened for crowdfunding, supports investors with Dogecoin. Mining will be done with solar energy and energy costs will decrease. 250k investors made their first investments.

www.dogecoinplatform.com

https://www.dogecoinplatform.com/blog/1b-renewable-energy-bitcoin-farm-investment-in-el-salvador/47

Volcano Energy said the funds would go toward an estimated 241 MW power generation park using solar and wind energy in the northwestern municipality of Metapan, which will eventually power the bitcoin mining farm.
https://www.dogecoinplatform.com/blog/1b-renewable-energy-bitcoin-farm-investment-in-el-salvador/47
These power sources are not stable, and where will this company get power at night and in non-sunny weather?

As for how they will store the electricity generated by the solar plants for use at night and non-sunny weather, that  will be greatly dependent on the energy storage facilities they put in place. Since it is not always sunny, there are storage facilities that energies can be stored on with includes lithium batteries. Much better than those lithium batteries are other powerful reusable batteries currently produced in advanced countries like Seoul, Singapore and China where they even plant micro solar panels that will go in search of sun to power the systems.

In a city like Seoul which experiences a humid continental climate with dry winter, which sometimes drop below the freezing degree but yet have an uninterrupted power supply using solar to power almost a million households in the smart city with over 100 MW solar power generated and used by public buildings.

These electricity generated are stored in powerful lithium-ion, lead acid and flow batteries for use when the sun is no longer shining. The interesting part of this news is the fact that El Salvador is driving his economy into a greener, cleaner and sustainable environment with the deliberate use of the Bitcoin technology to support the digital world. He's indeed an Ambassador of his own rights really to have continued to make headlines. It is better if other leaders adapt to this new fresh way of life.

Girona will win this game with plenty goals if their coach can make use of their potential players because, their system of playing  this season is different from last season which is the advantage they will use to beat Athletic Bilbao to remain in second position in the la Liga league table. Girona players are very smart in this season and is helping them to achieve victory from many games and, they stand among the teams that will win this trophy if they can continue with the excellent performance that made them to over take Barcelona and other teams in this la Liga league competition.

I don't think there will be draw 0:0 game because, there are many things that changed positively in Girona players that will make this game a surprise game to everybody because their players are well organized to display good results in this game.


This season I have come to admire the efforts of Girona. In the whole of La Liga, when you look closely at the performance and efforts all the clubs are putting into winning games, Girona will come at the very top of the rating especially as one will not consider it as a big club yet the efforts are big in their performances. If you take out Real Madrid and Barcelona out of the league, Girona can come next to them and this is because these other two clubs have built the reputation over the years. Girona's performance this season beats Atletico Madrid and Atletic Bilbao and I'm most pretty sure and confident that Girona will win this match. They have the bravery and fierce attack to strike against the Atletic club and also posses the confidence to win so that they can lead the table once again. Well kudos to these guys in advance.

But the approach to making a prediction is sometimes also quite helpful to see the potential of which team will be more favored in a match. And included in the Manchester City vs Liverpool match which will take place today at the Etihad Stadium.

And Manchester City's current condition is not very favorable even though they are the hosts. Because some of their mainstay players even suffered injuries. And what was most surprising was that Haaland also suffered a minor injury. And maybe he will miss this important match. Initially I predicted Manchester City would remain the favorite. But after hearing that Haaland was injured, I reconsidered. And yes, it's possible that Liverpool will win this match. or the closest is a draw.

I am taking my perspective from this direction which suggests that if Chelsea can walk over Manchester City with a 4 goals draw following all the inconsistencies the club has faced over the season but was able to hold Guardiola players tight to the end of the game, then ahy can't Liverpool take the strong efforts of winning this match. Because there are high chances of Liverpool winning or resulting into another draw like envisaged above but if they win they would have done themselves better because the rewards of Liverpool winning today's match is that they will move to the top of the table as the lead club of the season for the moment since Manchester city is just one point ahead of them right now.

Manchester city still remain many people favorite team in this season, and many people will predict for the favour of Manchester city because Liverpool don't have the skills to defeat Manchester city in their home which Manchester city will never allow such thing to happen in this match. I know, this match will going to be a tough match for both teams but Liverpool players strength will definitely reduce in the second half that will give Manchester city the opportunity to defeat Liverpool 3-1 for the favour of Manchester city. Base on the position Manchester city stand now in the premier league table, they will not allow Liverpool to reduce their position than to do everything possible within their power to achieve victory from this match.

I may not be a fan of Manchester City but I am also a respecter of their spirit of winning and their believe system which he have referred to as "us against the world" to beat many clubs in the season. Now they're topping the league with 9 won matches, 1 draw and 2 lose.

I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor. By poor, I mean those who do not have enough to meet all their needs. I don't know the reason for this. Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision? I really want to know the reason for this pattern I have observed.
The logic is very simple: they have more money, meaning they also have more left to spend, and they can take a higher risk than the average guy and wager a higher amount than the average guy. When they lose one, they call it nothing as the money is just like a peanut to them, and they can continue betting, which won't affect their financial life, and when they win in such situations, the winning is always loud.

Aside from the money they have and the fact that they still have more to spend, they also have the confidence to lose and try again next time. Because of their financial stability, it put into them that confidence to continue to bet regardless. There are also cases where these rich gamblers made their finances from gambling. Some of them do it as a career and are experts in the gambling game. As a result, they make more money from the gambling much more than a poor person will make from it.

A poor man who's struggling to pay his bills will find it tasking to take that bold step of investing the very meager resources he has into gambling because he doesn't know what the fate of the money would look like and so terrified of losing the little they posses. So it's only logical really to expect that happen.

I think the game is open to be won by either of Chelsea and Newcastle United. While Chelsea are knownn to be an inconsistent team and poor in front of goal; this season Newcastle United has also been inconsistent and injury ravaged which is enough reason to help gamblers understand its either any team wins or a draw ensues

Personally, i think Chelsea will win the tie, they are in good spirits and better form as well.

To speak on a more serious note, Chelsea should ordinarily win this match even with a 1 goal difference over the Newcastle because they have all it takes right now to make that possible but I will still say that it is the decision of the manager at first then that of the players too to win this game.

If Chelsea can play with Newcastle the way they played Manchester City, it will definitely become so much easier for them to score Newcastle. But if they just want to win, they must do the needful including the coach, Pochettino and the top strikers that are on the field. Teamwork is the best form of defeating an opponent in this dicey game of football.

Anyone who's been following the developments at Bayern Munich this season can attest to the fact that the club manager Thomas Tuchel is a huge admirer of Kim Min-Jae. The 27 years old Korean defender I think is gonna be one of the most terrifying centre-backs in Europe in no distant time.

He's hungry to win as many trophies as possible as he has spoken of his wish of having a very successful spell at the home of the reigning champions of Germany. He's without doubt in the right place with the right quality teammates that any player can wish for. It's still his very first season with Bayern Munich but I'm sure he's gonna finish the season with few trophies

Tuchel have cried out loud that his players are suffering mentally and exhausted physically following the injury of two other players who will be missing the Friday match De Ligt and Jamal Musiala but at the same time, the 27 year old Korean defender is back from his international break together with Canadian player Alphonsus Davies. They are both coming back from a very long journey since they left for the break.

Now, we see reason why these guys are naturally hungry to score goals and win as much possible trophies especially in the case of Kim Min-Jae. It is for this reason why Tuchel have put much interest in this guys.
