Inter Milan is in dire need of funds to cover the club's debts and pay player salaries, but letting Lautaro Martinez join the SPL is not the right move. Martinez will lose his place in the Argentina squad if he moves to the SPL, because he will certainly experience a decrease in his performance and creativity because the SPL is not as competitive as the Italian Serie A.

Martinez is still under contract with Inter Milan until 2026, most recently he has rejected an offer from the SPL club worth 60 million. Staying and captaining Inter is an extraordinary achievement at this time.
Letting Lautaro Martinez go to the Arab Pro League certainly isn't a good option, but if that's an option Inter needs to consider then they could sell him too. Lautaro Martinez, of course, still really wants to stay in Europe because he feels he can still compete in the top-flight competition at the moment, this will also support him being called up to the national team because of his performance.

I agree more that if Martinez joins another top team in Europe regardless of whether in the Premier League, La Liga or Ligue 1, it will definitely give him more chances to have a good career than in the Arab Pro League. But I think he's still happy to be with Inter for a longer period of time, that's definitely his wish.

Lalliga is really going to be competitive next season considering the kind of signings they are bringing into the league,and among all the Lalliga elite teams, I think Barcelona is going to come out ontop of the league.They are going to beat every odd in winning the Lalliga Titttle next season.They just signed Ikay Gundogan who was playing as a midfielder at Manchester city,Gundogan to me will be the best signing of the summer transfer window beating the likes of Declan Rice bought by Arsenal.
I know Barcelona have gradually built up their squad with quality players, so of course that will greatly improve their performances. We saw how well they performed last season where they also managed to secure the title, so it's true that La Liga will be even more competitive because of it.

Ilkay Gundogan can help Busquets leave the Barcelona midfield, he is the perfect signing for Barcelona. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Barcelona has also succeeded in building the mentality of its young players such as Gavi, Pedri and Ansu Fati which in the end has made them even more qualified.

Real Madrid are still going to be very strong this season,and if they can make a deal for Mbape materialise,I think  they will be very offensive infront of goal if he makes the move,but I still pick Barca because with Gundogan,their midfield is really going to be strong.
I hope like that, Real Madrid is still going strong. But we have lost Benzema, it will definitely have an impact on the performance of the team as a whole. Even though Bellingham and several other players are good signings, Real Madrid will have an impact without Benzema.

Pep Guardiola will continue to strive for a second title in the Champions League next season, because as long as he is still able to train and improve the Manchester City team, Guardiola will continue to do his best for Manchester City. Next season, Manchester City is still very much considered as a candidate in the race for the Premier League title and also the title in the Champions League, although there are many other teams that have made changes to their line-up of players.
I agree that Pep Guardiola and Manchester City will try to win more titles together every season. Pep Guardiola certainly wants to win his second Champions League title with Manchester City, as well as his plans to defend the Premier League title. We all know that in the last few seasons Manchester City have managed to dominate the Premier League, so it is more likely to see every team trying to stop them every season.

I'm happy about Ten Hag's achievements last season with Manchester United, but I really want him to do even better next season. Manchester United can return to its former glory, but I'm sure it will take time and money.

All the club presidents of European football must have paid attention to the figure of this extraordinary coach (Pep Guardiola). He was always able to raise the reputation of the club he coached. So it is not surprising that many clubs want the services of this coach. Offer after offer, of course many will come to Pep, but of course none of that will be published because it's a private business. And at this time, of course, Pep Guardiola is still under contract with Man City. But when the contract runs out, I think it's also possible that Pep Guardiola will leave Man City.

But I'm pretty sure this season Pep Guardiola will definitely want to set a new record for the Man City club. I'm curious about the upcoming season. Will Man City continue to be a scary club or will another club appear unexpectedly able to compete with Man City?
Pep Guardiola can leave Manchester City anytime when his contract is up but I don't think he will leave them soon so he will extend his contract. Manchester City still really want to keep him and give him a lot of support, especially the budget and various things, but all decisions depend only on Pep Guardiola.

Pep Guardiola has turned Manchester City into the most fearsome team in the Premier League. They also dominate the Premier League with a number of titles, and it's great that Pep Guardiola has presented Manchester City's first Champions League title last season. A new record will be set, but Guadiola will definitely have to work hard on it.

Plus, you would really be able to get something big or millions of dollars without having that extreme work or job that you are really that into.Its better to play safe rather than on getting nothing at all.
All you need to do is to wait up and do whatever your father or dad says because if you do oppose those things then problems will surely arise. You dont wanna lose multi-million assets eh?
It would really be just common sense on what you should really need to do which is to follow orders and completely stop gambling for 5 years or even forever and try yourself to distract
yourself on other things to avoid on doing gambling again.Depends on how you would really be taking the situation completely but its not actually that hard if you do have
that kind of self control because you would really be prioritizing on getting that inheritance on which it would be pushing you to completely stop and you cant
afford on losing that one.
After all this is a good option to take instead of being too egotistical on personal decisions in the short term. We can win something at gambling, but our winnings are never guaranteed. Take something that is in front of your eyes and that is a wise decision while learning to control yourself in gambling, especially when we are too addicted to it.

I would have taken the offer and quit, but it's always difficult to kick the addiction all at once so it's possible to gamble undetected. There are many online casinos that can be played anywhere without many people knowing, including your father.

You are doing great in sports betting you Are wining a good sum and you are on the way mastering a good method in sports betting finally you have come to a point that all the years of perseverance is paying off then you're rich father  decides that he will disinherit you if you do not stop gambling because he thinks that money that you are going to inherit will just vanish because of your addiction to gamble you will have to stop gambling for a minimum of five years.
You are going to inherit amount that you cannot win in sports betting possibly multi million

Will you explain to him that you are doing great and you are not a compulsive gambler
Will just stop gambling  and be practical and get that multi million inheritance
You'll just go on with your passion and just forget the money that your father will give to you as inheritance.

Let's discuss this scenario is possible
The best scenario for the case you say is to stop gambling and get your inheritance. This makes a lot more sense than giving him all kinds of excuses about your gambling addiction, it definitely won't help get you out of trust issues.

If it were me, then I'd quit and get something easier without the risk. Inheritance is better than victory, but everyone has their own considerations and approach. It's easier to quit than to not get that treasure, even if you'll still be gambling after a while.

Osimhen must be very satisfied with his performance and team effort both last season. It was a really successful season for Napoli after all these years. He must be enjoying his football at Napoli for now so I don't expect him to put pressure on his team to let him go this summer. There isn't even any official offer coming for him due to his high asking price.

Napoli are trying to sign a new deal with Osimhen also. They think of putting a release clause which is worth 160 million euros too. If they become successful on this task then they should be completely relieved about his probability of being signed by another team for more years. Otherwise he has only 2 years left on his contract.
Napoli's strategy to keep Osimhen is certainly good, but it will also hurt the player a little if he basically wants to play for his dream team next season or the following season. Osimhen certainly has the desire to play in La Liga or the Premier League too, but many teams are not interested when they find out the value Napoli has set for him.

It's good if Osimhen stays at Napoli and helps Napoli retain the Serie A title next season, but it's really difficult especially since they have lost the coach who brought that success to Napoli.

I'm not sure how true that statement is, but it's an idea that has a low probability of coming true. Politicians back bitcoin because they want to get a lot of support from the community, that wouldn't be too surprising. Perhaps this idea is a bit unreasonable because the president does not work alone in making decisions, so even if this plan is implemented, the plan may change due to government pressure.
929  Economy / Speculation / Re: $30000 is becoming the resistant price on: July 20, 2023, 08:31:18 PM
It drop a bit below $30k, but after that, it seems the price is going to trade sideways again for this month. Unless there will be a break out run again to $31k++. But so far we haven't had any positive news yet. So it's better to think that the price will go on this pattern and not expecting big.

On the other hand, we want to see the price just above $30k and no more declining to $29k'ish or below. The market though seems to be bullish, and perhaps that waiting for a news just like the spot ETF filling or maybe its approval will be the catalyst for a great run at the end of the year.
I think bitcoin prices tend to fall ahead of the halving, but something different could be possible if the market gets a lot of positive support from big investors. We would expect the market to continue to fight back to eliminate any more potential downside below $29k, but that is highly unlikely as there is a lot of panic every time bitcoin corrects.

If anything a correction is always possible, but I don't expect the price to drop any lower than $29k. It's very close indeed, but $29k is solid support so far. I agree that the bitcoin price is currently in a sideway, but an up trend can be expected towards the end of the year due to growing seasonality of investor interest.
930  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't expect everyone to embrace Bitcoin on: July 20, 2023, 08:20:07 PM
Bitcoin is not for everyone because some people don't want to identify the things which are necessary for success and blindly put money without realizing what to do next. Other reason is that in some countries bitcoin investment is not permitted therefore they cannot take benefit of bitcoin even if we convince them for making investment until they moved to the other country.
Bitcoin is for everyone, but not everyone is obligated to use it or accept it as a means of payment or anything like that.
It doesn't matter how many countries do not support its adoption, but what is clear is that bitcoin has the same criteria to be used as a means of payment. Bitcoin is an alternative solution for anyone willing to accept it as a means of payment, but it is never mandatory so bitcoin is only useful for those willing to accept it.

We can just share knowledge about bitcoin but convincing someone other is not an easy task because everyone has different opinions and they can think about their profit personally. One can also not easily convinced from bitcoin investment because new comers are in a fear of losing money when they heard that risks are also involved in it.
There are a lot of innovations that bitcoin has brought in its financial system, so anyone who wants to learn about it, of course they will get more knowledge. Bitcoin is not legal currency in most countries, but bitcoin has also been used as legal currency in several countries. There are many places in various countries that have adopted bitcoin as a means of payment, so bitcoin is not only useful as an investment asset or a traded asset.

The Onana deal is finally completed for Man Utd then. I’m not too sure how much of an upgrade he will be on De Gea, he is prone to making big mistakes. It will take a lot more to make them genuine title challengers.
It is hoped that André Onana will have more positive influence on the defense system that Ten Hag built at Manchester United. He might help Manchester United's defense stronger than what De Gea has done so far, but Onana still has no experience in the Premier League. André Onana is very excited to find himself playing for Manchester United next season, but I hope he can prove himself worthy of replacing De Gea at Manchester.

The signing of Gvardiol really strengthens the defence of City. They are losing Gundogan, Mahrez, Kyle Walker & possibly Bernardo Silva. It could be an open title race this season.
Manchester City are focused on defence, but they have not shown any seriousness in a potential replacement for Mahrez. Mateo Kovacic is good to replace Ilkay Gundogan, while Josko Gvardiol will strengthen Manchester City's defense. I wonder who will replace Marez and maybe Bernardo, but the rumors are that they want Raphinha from Barcelona.

Graham potter had the chance and opportunity to reshape Chelsea but failed to deliver ordinary top 6 to Chelsea despite with funds that was made available for him to buy good players, he actually splash money on 5 good players such as Enzo, Mudryk, Madueke and finaly Malo and what did he do with them for all his months of stay in Chelsea, there was nothing to show to the club after emptying the pocket funds that was given to him by the club.
We all also know that Graham Potter had the opportunity to make Chelsea better in terms of performance and quality, but in the end his plan failed because Chelsea did not play as expected. Many things were missing at Chelsea despite bringing in many quality players, one of which was team cohesiveness and mutual understanding.

Players are forced to play better and adapt to other players, but many of them fail to do so because they are still in the adaptation process. Pochettino will certainly face the same problems at Chelsea, but we don't know if he will make it through the challenge or will fail like Lampard and Graham Potter.

Pochettinno is kind but I'm not too confident in his ability to transform Chelsea but just maybe he is right about sending off all those players that left the club and the ones left will be in good form to pressurise other teams to climb up the table as fast as they can to bring worthy to Chelsea ones again.
Pochettino has the opportunity and ability to do so because of his experience with big teams, but if he is too confident in his abilities then maybe he will fail like the others. Not all plans will go smoothly even if a coach gets extra support from the owner, especially in terms of spending on players.

I also think that Napoli will still be very similar to last season, even though there will be slight changes at Napoli, it will definitely not be so bad for Napoli because they will still be one of the strong candidates in Serie A next season. Although I also agree more with what you said because before the season starts speculation for the Napoli team sometimes wouldn't be more accurate to say, so it will be better to see how Napoli do at the start of next season in the league.
I think Napoli's performance will no longer be the same as last season so they can secure the title again next season. Napoli have lost their best coach who brought them success last season, so the same expectations and quality will never be the same again next season.

I don't know too much about the new Napoli coach next season even though he has coached Roma for several seasons. Rudi Garcia is a coach who actually has a lot of experience in several Ligue 1 teams, but he hasn't had much success in his career. Yes I will probably doubt Napoli next season a lot, but that team still has a lot of quality players.
934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 20, 2023, 06:26:41 PM
We agree, that Osimhen will not leave Napoli. the problem is, it's not that the club doesn't want to let him go in this summer's transfer window. however, not many clubs are willing to propose to Osimhen at a very fantastic price. so, that's why Osimhen is most likely to stay in the Serie A League. Speaking of Real Madrid, there is a lot of speculation that says Madrid must look for options to replace the successor to the benzema succession. but in fact, so far Madrid have not made any moves in the transfer window to sign striker number 9.

To be honest I don't know what Madrid are planning, because so far there have been lots of rumors and wild speculations until now. it could be, if in the end Madrid will negotiate with PSG for Mbappe. or as Florentino Perez said, that he won't sign another striker because they have Joselu. But anything can happen, because in football there is a lot of uncertainty. besides this summer transfer window still leaves time, we'll see if Perez is interested in Mbappe in this window, or...
Napoli's expected value for Osimhen is too high to be true, but it is a good strategy so that Osimhen does not leave Napoli during the open transfer window. Osimhen is good to get the opportunity to play in elite European clubs such as in several Premier League, La Liga or Ligue 1 teams, but for his high value it is difficult to get him to move easily from Napoli.

There are only a few teams that can bring in Osimhen with such a fantastic value, but I never hope Real Madrid to be willing to pay Napoli that much just for Osimhen. It makes more sense to pay Kylian Mbappe 200 million euros instead of paying Napoli 180 million euros for Osimhen. But the current value of star players is really crazy.
935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: July 18, 2023, 09:56:21 PM
However the required age by most online casinos in different countries is 18 but to me I prefer 21 years because most 18years are still not matured enough to control their actions and most of them are still financially backed by their parents they feel comfortable when they lose because they don't know the stress of making money and could fall back to their parents for more funds.
Different countries have different age limits for engaging in gambling, but the average is 18 in most countries. Some countries have an age limit of up to 25 to play casinos, that includes the age limit for gamblers in some countries like Portugal, Armenia and some others.

If you are interested in knowing more, then see more here: Gambling age
Asian countries have age limits from 18-21 years, but some countries still forbid gambling, especially in countries with the largest Islamic base such as Indonesia and Malaysia. But some others are illegal for other reasons.

It seems I also agree that Real Madrid must forget about Mbappe this summer because Real Madrid must be able to use this summer wisely enough to get the players they want with greater certainty. Instead of waiting for players who are still uncertain to come into the team, because now not only is Mbappe a good player for Real Madrid, but there are many other players who might also be very suitable for Real Madrid even though you have also said that Bellingham is actually more than enough for Real Madrid.
Kylian Mbappe has no doubts about Real Madrid, but so far Real Madrid have not wanted to pay PSG too much for his transfer. PSG wants any team to pay dearly for Kylian Mbappe, but I think Real Madrid prefers to step down and focus on other players until Mbappe's contract expires at the end of next season.

We have the possibility of signing Mbappe for free if negotiations with the player go well, but PSG will definitely not let Mbappe go for free for any reason. I believe PSG will try to sell Mbappe and make a profit, so Real Madrid won't 100% put him first.

Hazard is a reference that money cannot buy prime time, meaning that when Hazard was bought from Chelsea by Madrid in 2019, Zidane was behind this scenario. Zidane wants the Belgian player's service to strengthen Los Blancos during his coaching period, of course Zidane has also prepared a suitable scheme and tactics for Hazard in the Madrid squad. However, the slow adaptation process coupled with prolonged injuries was the main factor in Hazard performance decreasing slowly, in the end Hazard was given a free transfer status because Madrid no longer extended his current contract. I agree with your sentence that he failed miserably at Madrid during his 4 year career.

The striker position left by Benzema was temporarily covered by Joselu and my prediction was only for a moment, before Madrid made official the new signing of Mbabpe.
I can't deny that in the end Hazard was another worst signing for Real Madrid in recent seasons. Hazard did not contribute much to Real Madrid's game after being brought in from Chelsea, it was a very bad experience for the player and detrimental for Real Madrid.

Of course I don't expect some of Real Madrid's current expensive signings to also end in failure. Jude Bellingham is one of two high-priced midfielders that Real Madrid have signed in recent seasons, the first being Aurélien Tchouameni. I don't expect either of them to fail at Real Madrid, but Aurélien Tchouaméni may face a difficult challenge next season considering the battle for a place in the main squad.

The more adoption bitcoin has in real use cases then I believe the more stable the price will be and the lower the volatility will be. Bitcoin won't fluctuate as much as before if it reaches mass adoption, but that's not a certainty either because manipulation can't always be avoided.

Adoption can support price stability and low volatility in bitcoin, but I believe not many investors really want that especially if they are not adopters of bitcoin as a means of payment. While governments are still pushing for a lot of non-friendly regulation with bitcoin especially in its real use cases as a currency, it is a difficulty that bitcoin has faced so far.

The most reason people get addicted when gambling is because they lack discipline that makes them to have poor money management habits. They go after losses and this make them to keep gambling pass their limits and when they realized they have already spent a lot.
I tend to think that someone gets addicted to gambling because they see about the possibility of big wins. It will increase their self-confidence constantly so that they really don't care about the risk of losing, this is also known as the curiosity about winning.

Discipline in gambling is only part of how you don't lose a lot of money, but it's not the way to not be addicted. You only need to change your mindset about winning and gambling goals so you don't get addicted, not learn about discipline and good budget management. Even if you are disciplined and have a budget limit for gambling, then you will also be said to be a gambling addict if you come back the next day or for another session.

No doubt with Manchester City is very strong teams right now, but current update many important player leaves Manchester City and I don't sure they will sign the same level players. İlkay Gündoğan and Kyle Walker have confirmed will leave Manchester City next season after accepting join with Barcelona and Bayern Munich, its still not stop for players leave Manchester City because Bernando Silva announced not extend contract with City and will follow İlkay Gündoğan for joining with Barcelona.

Inside Manchester City loss Mahrez after joining with Al Ahly as Saudi Pro League teams, many composition change with Manchester City next season and actually new players will need time for adapting with Guardiola games style.
Manchester City will not really lose the quality of their squad depth even though they will lose some important players. Ilkay Gundogan, Kyle Walker, Riyad Mahrez, Bernardo Silva are important players, but I think Manchester City are ready to part ways with them any time. Bernardo Silva might dampen Manchester City's strengths in attack a bit, but others won't especially as some of these players are old enough to play at the high level Manchester City demands.

Barcelona does have a good affinity with Manchester City so far, this also includes the problem of player transfers. Silva is another player who has been linked with a move to Barcelona, ​​but I believe Barcelona would not have had it so easy to sign him if Silva not come on a free transfer.
