That young man would be 27 next season and this is how he behaves? He behaves like a donkey and not even professional, for a player that has to fake his Injury so he could leave the pitch. Most of these Manchester United fans are stupid, Erik Ten Hag is having a bad season and same as Marcus Rashford but they want to only crucify Erik Ten Hag.

If they're not so lazy, they would definitely go back to comments made by Ralf Ragnick, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunner Solskjaer about this Rashford. He does nothing for the club and he takes such huge fee's.

One more, they say Erik Ten Hag is the problem, but they forget as much as the glazers are still in charge, all they care about is making profits. Sacking Erik Ten Hag also for Thomas Tuchel is a bad idea, how do you bring a coach who has bad relationship with his players in every single club he manages, also, he barely works with the youngins Manchester United are set to introduce next season, they should stick to Erik Ten Hag and get him quality players.

Focusing only on Erik ten Hag when it comes to blaming isn't a healthy way, agreed. I also said it before. As long as they don't find a more reliable manager than Erik ten Hag there is no meaning in parting ways with him. They just need to take the right steps in the next transfer window. They spend a lot of money on players like crazy but can't get efficiency from them.  Sad

There have been many talented players coming to Manchester United but they can't make use of them properly. I hope that this ends at one point. They started to be called as a team that mess up the career of those young talents. Since Alex Ferguson era ended this team just can't be as impressive as that.

Why we blame the owner of Napoli? He didn't fire Spalletti, it is the own intention of Spalletti to leave the team. We must understand that Spalletti was leaving Napoli because he wants to be the coach (manager) of Italian national team. The owner of Napoli can't keep him staying in Napoli, Spalletti has his own right to decide leaving Napoli and be the manager of Italy.

It is sad that Napoli management can't get a proper coach to replace the position of Spalletti. Rudi Garcia, Walter Mazzarri, and Francesco Calzona still can't make Napoli to perform as well as in the era of Spalletti. Napoli is only in the 9th place now, it is too much different from Napoli position in the last season. In the last year, Napoli was leading the table of Serie A. But now, Napoli is struggling to stay in the top 10 of Serie A standings. It is too sad story of Napoli in this season. Napoli won't play in UCL or UEL anymore in the next season.

I agree that it doesn't make sense to blame De Laurentiis. What could he have done about Spalletti? He can't just force someone to stay.  Smiley  Spalletti thought he gave everything he could for Napoli and that was enough for him there. He stayed there for 2 seasons and it wasn't easy at all to bring Napoli to that dominant level in two years.

Yeah it isn't nice to see Napoli struggling this much despite not being a Napoli fan. After having a that dominant season they dropped too much in the standings.  Sad  They could have been in top four fight at least. They are changing managers very often and getting no result. Next season I wonder who will be in charge. Maybe they could go for Conte?

Dortmund are highly focused on the Champions League these days. This is causing a big difference to occur between their performances there and in the Bundesliga.  Sad  However they should consider themselves really lucky about one thing. It seems like the Bundesliga is also sending an extra team to the Champions League just like the Serie A this season.

Thanks to that Dortmund have guaranteed their Champions League spot suddenly.  Smiley  If the fifth finishing team didn't have this opportunity then Leipzig were most probably going to keep them out of top four. From now on I think Terzic will be staying for at least next season. This season can be considered as a good one for Dortmund in my opinion.

Real Madrid only need two more wins to announce their La Liga title. This is even the worst case scenario. Therefore I expect Ancelotti to continue to rotate nearly all of the squad, at least as long as they are in the Champions League on one hand.  Smiley  This means that we can see young talents who don't find many opportunities normally starting to find those.

Arda Güler found a place in the starting eleven previously thanks to that and he benefited from it. I hope to see him in more games in the remaining weeks as well.  Roll Eyes  Real Madrid can win their games even with their highly rotated squad which shows they have a really nice squad depth.

Dortmund showed great charisma in their game against PSG yesterday. It was surely a thrilling one and it wasn’t so difficult for Dortmund to control the most part of the game. After they did net their first goal which turned out to be the winning goal in the match, PSG came back strong in the second half, hitting the bar a couple of times and had some very clear chances to some of its best assets on the pitch, which turned out to be an unbelievable loss. Mbape had one, Dembele had at least 2 and he sent both flying, a couple of free headers and just like that, they couldn’t find the net. It might be just a goal difference but, Dortmund knows how to control the game and this is something that could prove very useful in the second leg.

I can't say Dortmund were in trouble either. But in especially the second half PSG came with really dangerous attacks. I counted two shots hitting the post and many more like you said. I really enjoyed Dortmund's win here honestly. Because I don't believe PSG are the one that deserves the finale the most. They are just playing inconsistently.

Nothing has ended yet of course. 1-0 could be seen as a decent advantage but the rematch is in France. I think Dortmund should somehow score one goal there at least. If they focus only on maintaining this score it might not end up well for them.  Sad   I can't say Dortmund are great at defending that's why.

PSG dominates Ligue 1 every season, winning trophies with ease. They're the wealthiest team in the league, outspending everyone else. If the league was more competitive, I might be impressed. But with PSG's financial advantage, it's not surprising they win consistently. It's basically become turn into a one-team league.
By the way, it's puzzling why someone like Mbappe wouldn't want to prove himself in a more challenging league. Maybe that's why he's rumored to be joining Real Madrid next season?

It is an easy league without competition for PSG. This league doesn't look attracting for investors much as well so it looks like PSG will continue to dominate it for long years. But if we see another team having a rich owner in the future then maybe the champion would start changing more often.  Tongue  For now it isn't possible unless PSG give it away.

When it comes to Mbappe the reason why he stayed this long is money. Nobody knows the exact conditions of his current contract. It is that big.  Grin  But from now on I think he will think of making a change more seriously. Because PSG can't win a Champions League title. For a star like him winning that title is really important, to have a bigger career. Real Madrid is the right place for that in my opinion.

It seems like Rashford is likely to stay at Manchester United this summer. The Red Devils are said to have set a price tag around 70 million pounds for him and after that PSG don't seem to be as interested as before.

This would actually be good news for the Red Devils. Because I don't believe Rashford is a bad player at all. Yeah I can agree with people who think his performance isn't impressive this season. It is because of his inconsistencies in the recent years. He was the same in the 2021/2022 season too but he was really productive last season. I just hope that he breaks this bad cycle and gets more consistent. This doesn't fit a skilled player like him.  Sad

If Arsenal have been playing this well, their supporters wouldn't have needed to pray for them to win the league. Maybe they were hoping to win the champions league that was why they made those mistakes that put them in the position they are now. As it becomes obvious that their champions league dream will not come to pass, I have notice serious change in them especially as it has to do with winning mentality. They have dramatically improved their playing, scoring and defending and any mistake from Man City will just give them the advantage they need to win the trophy.

I don't feel like they were prioritizing the Champions League title honestly. I can say this considering the performance differences in the Premier League and Champions League. I didn't like their effort in the Champions League at all. First eliminating Porto barely and later a not much impressive effort against Bayern Munich.  Sad

They were clearly much better in the Premier League and I have no doubt their priority was the title here as well. But that loss against Aston Villa made things extra difficult on this road. Now they have no other choice than hoping for Manchester City to lose points. But I feel like Manchester City won't give the chance back to them.

We have a Roma - Juventus game four days later. The odds for 1x2 are like below:



I thought Roma would be favoured slightly honestly. This seems interesting. Of course Juventus are six points ahead of them. However considering the big fall in Juventus' performance I wouldn't expect to see them as the favourite here. Roma or draw has 1.49 odds... It looks tempting to me honestly.  Smiley  Because they are facing a threat of losing their Champions League spot. They will have only a break of two days after the Leverkusen game maybe but I still don't think they would lose to Juventus home.

Well, Girona players are trying in this season, because they lead the match in the first half  1-2 to reduced the strength of Barcelona but the red card later frustrated their plans to lose against Barcelona.

It was Valencia who faced Barcelona away two days ago, not Girona. The Girona - Barcelona game is going to be played three days later.

For that game my expectation is a win by Barcelona away by the way. I'm fully aware of what happened in the last game between these teams. Girona got a really huge win. However those times Barcelona were really horrible. I can't say they are like that anymore. I really liked their effort against Real Madrid away too. Girona are surely one of the best home teams in the league but I still think Barcelona will manage to win and secure the second spot after.

I'd like to remind another thing that Atletico Madrid are the best home team now but their only loss was against Barcelona.  Smiley

I did expected Kane to score a lot of goals during his Bundesliga tenure as well, but even with Kane being such a great player, I did not expected him to score THIS much, he did very well.

I do agree that his "curse" is more than a joke now and I feel like him not winning is quite funny (to us of course, not to him) but we can't blame him for that, he did all he could and he tried his very best, he scored way more than what we expected of him to score. If he scored a bit more he almost broke over the Bundesliga record that Lewandwoski has, so that means that whatever Bayern Munich had trouble this season long, it was not his mistake and he didn't cause any of it, he did what he should and rest of the team basically failed him at the end so he wasn't responsible for their loss.

I think it is even easier for him to score goals in the Bundesliga compared to the Premier League. This has also helped him score this many and he can go for even more in the remaining games.  Smiley

He has always been playing really impressively. He has won many individual prizes many of which were top scorer ones. Despite his giving his best every season he is just unlucky with titles. But like I said before I think there is no way he isn't breaking a leg at Bayern Munich.  Grin  Yeah Leverkusen are really solid with Xabi Alonso but one way or another Bayern Munich would start winning titles once again. It can happen next season too if they bring the right manager for themselves.
52  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: May 01, 2024, 08:58:29 AM
Ancelotti wanted to start the game with a more careful way of game plan. Maybe he just wanted to execute the same plan he had against Manchester City. Honestly it worked once again.  Grin  Despite a comeback by Bayern Munich the final score is still useful for Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu considering they would play more effective there.

Bayern Munich could have actually won by 2-1. That penalty was so unnecessary by Kim Min-Jae. If he didn't do that Rodrygo was probably going to be blocked by the other defender there. Anyways I think the rematch will also finish by a close score but this time I expect Real Madrid to win in regular time and reach the finale.  Smiley
53  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 29, 2024, 04:05:16 PM
The Leverkusen team is now considered to be one of the favorites for the Europa League. Because this season, Leverkusen is the only team that has not lost a single match in any competition. This team is in great form. However, it will not be easy for Leverkusen to win the semi-final against Roma. The Roma team is also in good form.

Their streak right now is just at insane level mate. It is 46 games now and it doesn't look like someone will stop them anytime soon. Tongue

Can Roma be the one to do that? It would be a good question considering that they have been showing better performances since De Rossi came. They are much more effective in the attacking line for sure but for the defending I can't say they are great for now. Xabi Alonso can make use of their weakness really well in my opinion.

I can't really say atalanta was superior here. Eliminating liverpool doesn't mean it can win the semi final easily. But yeah, considering it's gonna face marseille. it's a sense choice to pick atalanta to win the upcoming game.

Atalanta's odds is also very close to the marseille. So, im thinking atalanta gonna win the first leg.

Atalanta weren't definitely superior. Most people were expecting Liverpool to get past them and reach the finale later on too. But a Liverpool - Leverkusen finale which so many people dreamed of won't happen unfortunately. Sad

Yeah nothing guaranteed. But if Atalanta play with the same ambition I will still see them one step ahead.

Inter milano was a better side in their match with Torino, despite that Torino struggle to get a draw in the first half of the game, inter maintain an impressive play in the second half, it earned them the 3 Points in the match, Torino use to be be a good side and an obstacle to many big teams in the Italian serie A but I can tell you that this season has not been very smooth for them, though inter is not their match this season but generally Torino has flopped.
I somuch congratulate inter for this winning, I think with this singular act of theirs, the league will be theirs soon, a good team remains a good team any time any day.

It was really nice to see Torino players applauding the champion players while entering the pitch. We really need this kind of things especially instead of unwanted incidents among the players or supporters.  Smiley

Torino were like aimless by the way. I wasn't expecting them to make big difficulties for Inter which was what really happened. I liked Hakan Calhanoglu's performance a lot in this game with 2 goals.  Smiley  He is really one of the special players for Inter now. In addition to that he is having his most productive season in the Serie A in terms of scoring. With these goals the number has reached 13 goals. He already has 3 years to go on his contract and I think he would stay until the end of his contract as well.

That's a little bit annoying to see people talking about Mbappe and his next destination for years. Mbappe was about to leave PSG many times and he said he wanted to play in the team like Real Madrid where he wouldn't have more chance to win the Champions League title. Now I'm waiting to see the performance of PSG in the Champions League during this season, and this can be supering to see PSG win the trophy for the first time. This can even make Mbappe to change his mind and this way there is a chance for him to stay in PSG for a longer time.
However, there is some news about Mbappe and Real Madrid and it seems they even signed a contract.

That's because of news sources' writing about Mbappe every year actually. For years we have seen them linking him with another team and people discussed the topic like all the time. The last time Mbappe was nearing the end of his contract he decided to extend by signing a new huge contract. This time people are discussing whether it would happen again or not.  Smiley

I have also heard such thing like Real Madrid and Mbappe has already reached agreement with each other. However this is also a rumour without any proof. I remember Mbappe's recent statement that he didn't made up his mind about his future yet and he just wanted to focus on his game. I wasn't also expecting him to reach a verbal agreement that early.

PSG - Dortmund is the other matchup in the semi finals. Dortmund have been continuing to impress everyone by doing a great work. They scored a lot of goals against Atletico Madrid in the rematch you know. We all know how solid Atletico Madrid are when it comes to defending normally. But even they couldn't prevent a 4-2 loss there.  Sad

PSG had better not underestimate their opponent. I don't expect their job to be easy. They beat Dortmund in the group stage before but Dortmund look stronger than that now. PSG might not have been in this stage in the first place if Barcelona didn't have to play with 10 players in the rematch. PSG should improve their game because of that.
57  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: April 29, 2024, 09:38:03 AM
I assume we can all say from now on that Atletico Madrid have secured the last spot for the Champions League.  Smiley  That win against Athletic Bilbao was a result that most people including me expected. Athletic Bilbao gave up early because of making really critical point losses against Granada and Villarreal both home previously.

Real Madrid are very close to announcing the title officially. Only a couple of weeks the most. I think the winner of the Girona - Barcelona game will determine which one will finish the season at the second position as well. I think Barcelona would beat Valencia today first and use their two-point advantage against Girona well in the game between later.  Smiley

The dream season is still going on for Leverkusen. 46 games unbeaten... This is insane! I was really excited while watching that last minute free-kick and they really did it again. Maybe with a little help of their luck on that goal too but still.  Wink  Xabi Alonso is not just making do with breaking a record. He is still improving it with a huge streak.



It says 44 because of being shared like 10 days ago. Anyways from now on I'm concentrated on what they will do in the Europa League. I'm not even saying DFB Pokal because it seems like an easy win for Leverkusen considering the strength of the opponent, Kaiserslautern. In the Europa League too I believe they will be able to make it to the title.  Smiley

Congratulations to PSG on another win in Ligue 1. However, I hope that in the future there will be a team capable of competing with them. PSG is considered the favorite every season because of their dominance and high level of play. But the French championship is a one-team championship, so it is very boring to watch.

When I first saw your post I thought PSG won against Le Havre and I saw the result wrong. But you were talking about the Ligue 1 title, okay.  Grin

Yeah PSG were already too comfortable in the league for a long time which is the same scenario we see nearly every season. This is killing the competitiveness of the league though but there is really nothing we can do about it. PSG is rich and it is easy for them to win this title over and over again. Even though they actually have horrible stats like 10 draws considering their superiority, they can still become the champions without any problem. This is what makes this league boring.  Sad

Juventus are so close to be left behind by Bologna in the standings as well. After a terrible finishing against Milan I was expecting for that to happen actually but Bologna wasted the chance. Of course top 5 teams are going to qualify for the Champions League anyway but this still doesn't change the fact that Juventus haven't had a good season.  Sad

Napoli also got away more from top 7 by getting a 2-2 draw against Roma. The gap is 5 points and Fiorentina are also between. I don't feel like Napoli will manage to qualify for a tournament from now on. Their recent form is horrible and there is no hope with this poor level performance.
