Interesting to know who will be the next captain for Manchester United because lately Ten Hag has been spoke with Maguire that he apparently will not be Manchester United captain for next season and several names appears as candidate for the next captain but some of fans want David De Gea in that position because they says De Gea as part of this team more than 10 years and had stable performance from seasons to seasons even he is very loyal for Man Utd and i think he deserved to get that
Captaincy is not about how long you have been in the club .. not only that.
Captaincy is a leadership .. a player who selected as a captain must have that leadership traits , otherwise ... there you go harry maguire for you.
Im more to cristiano instead of de gea , you know why ... clearly the level of cristiano leadership above every single united players.

Cristiano for captain!

Ten Hag probably does not want him (United is looking for Antony).
Is there a statement from Ten Hag that he doesn't want Ronaldo on Man United squad?
I just know this issue and I'm surprised Ten Hag isn't satisfied with Ronaldo. As far as I know, Ronaldo is the most productive player in Man United in the last season. It isn't a good idea to exclude him from the next season plan.

I'm also surprised to read this, because nowhere did I see anything about Ten Hang talking bad about Ronaldo.
In fact, Ten Hag has big plans for Ronaldo and wants to form a "dream duo" with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lewandowski up front.
But I think that Hag's dream will have to be postponed... because I believe that Barcelona have a better chance of achieving it, and that also seems to be Lewandowski's wish.
Xavi admitted himself had a direct conversation with lewandowski which yeah making barcelona leading the race.
United might hijacking this transfer but of course the offer must be better and i myself think united better to looking for a young talented striker so cristiano could mentor the player to get the traits needed as a deadly striker .

Not lewandowski who i feel it won't matched.

This is the time to look around and ask: What else can be done to sustain BTC growth? How to increase interest in BTC?


I think the interest for bitcoins is still strong right now, it's just that people are very unsettled about the uncertainty of the next 6 months. There are so many issues the world faces that makes investing unpredictable. The Russia Ukraine war is still going on with no end insight, economic growth is slowing down world-wide due to rising inflation and the covid pandemic might still not be over. Without these issues the bitcoin price would be much higher with many investors buying instead of selling.
The most important thing the average bitcoin investor can do to stabilise the price is, not selling. Not giving into the selling pressure is already a big deal. Like this there is already less downward pressure on the price and also less supply for the short term traders who are looking for a quick profit. Right now the volatility is very high with prices jumping 5% in a single. Getting some more stability into the price would be could to calm nerves of the big investors. The second step would be to start buying when the price is below 30,000 USD.
Well .. it's a free market.

Nobody can ever make a huge impact unless if it was the like elon musk with its manipulating power + purchasing piwer .
But once the market cap getting high and higher then the bitcoin holder getting much larger... not even elon musk with billions dollar could interfere bitcoin price , it runs naturally.

Real Madrid made a big effort to sign Kylian Mbappe but the player himself didn't want to go there after seeing that extraordinary contract offer. Money opens all doors seemingly.  Grin  It was obvious that his dream team were Real Madrid but he didn't want to go now because of that. I still want to be hopeful about seeing him playing for Real Madrid in the future but we will see. PSG would have no problem with money so Mbappe will need to make that critical decision at some point considering his career.
Despite the disrespectful of being asshole with real madrid contract offer i believe it was tough decision , he might thinking that he could join real madrid at his peak age in the next 4 years or 5 and cannot missed the one time offer from psg that might happened once in his entire life.

I could do the same way as him tho to real madrid.

Chelsea did give the green light to let Lukaku go, because as you said, Lukaku is not contributing to Chelsea. Even Kai Havertz's performance is
much better than Lukaku, even though Havertz is not a pure striker. Lukaku should not have returned to the Premier League after his previous failure
with Man United. Even though many people around Lukaku reminded him to stay at Inter, but Lukaku was still determined to move back to Chelsea
and it turned out that Lukaku's performance was very disappointing. Fortunately, currently Inter are still willing to accept Lukaku back, even though
Inter will sign Lukaku on a loan scheme. At least Lukaku's future is getting clearer, because Lukaku will most likely play again next season with Inter.
Don't you know if Lukaku has a problem there? He didn't get enough time to play and he seems uncomfortable with his situation in Chelsea. This problem leads to a lack of contribution for Chelsea. Lukaku is an experienced, skilled, and quality center forward, no one doubts his capability. He proves it in Inter Milan and in his national team. If he can play regularly in Chelsea and everyone supports him, he must contribute much to Chelsea. So, please don't blame Lukaku.

Anyway, I agree if it is the time to leave Chelsea, Lukaku needs to move to a club that wants to respect him. Inter Milan, AC Milan, or maybe other top clubs will try to sign him.


I believe the rumor has it.

As long as the price is matched , romelu lukako will be alliwed to leave .. otherwise he will stay and everyone have to figure out how he could contributing 100% fir the club.
He still has that potential and love for chelsea , he could rise back this season but yeah in case he leaving .. it must be at the right price so we could find a better option at the front.

Do not invite trouble. Play safe. Loans are not the way to become rich again.
Sure. Taking a loan isn't the right way to be rich, I am sure everyone knows it. Having a loan probably makes us in a trouble because we may be difficult to pay the loan. But some people don't care about the risk and just take a loan confidently. They may think to pay the loan isn't something very hard because there should be many ways then. Even some people take a new loan to pay their previous loan. They don't know if it will be a big trouble in the future.


Well sometimes you need to take that high risk to get that high return... otherwise yeah you will just living a standard life , im not saying taking loan is the only way ..
But hey let's see someone's success story , they always invite the third party to come in to invest , to take a loan just like elon musk who bought twitter with money that he loaned.

High risk , high return... that's all .. the crisis like this could be an opportunity for the high risk taker.
1047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid! on: June 12, 2022, 11:06:30 PM
For next season, it is really too hard to predict the winner of the championship here. Because Manchester City have signed Erling Haaland and I think that they are really a complete team now. They can fight much harder for the championship. PSG only need a good coach like quite many people said already. If they manage to sign a coach like that then they would also be very challenging for the championship. Pochettino is a good one but not the one they need now. On the other hand we all know the Real Madrid threat for them again.
Not really interested or favorite with Manchester City as the winner of Champion League next season despite success arrived Erling Haaland, I think keep with mentality and full experience from Real Madrid as the candidate for getting Champion League trophy. The same what happen in this season were Real Madrid as team not really favorite for getting champion league trophy, but at the end Real Madrid success become the winner after impressive performance and success come back every match on 16 round, quarter final until on semifinal before looks easy match against with Liverpool on the final stage.

I said that Real Madrid are going to be a threat again but I started feeling like they won't achieve the Champions League title next season. I think that it will be a different team than them and it will even be one of two alternatives in my mind now: PSG or Manchester City. I really wish one of these teams can finally achieve this and in my opinion Manchester City are more likely to do it. I see it like Erling Haaland was the last piece of the puzzle to complete it and now they can do this.
Guess what that every single season .. real madrid , bayern munich , psg and manchester city nowadays always become the main title contender.
Especially this season where haaland joined manchester city and i feel that pep guardiola & manchester city could achieve something big like winning the champions league for the first time ever in club history.

Real madrid seems weaker compared to the other three , but they had strong experience and champions mentality that often beat those high class squad.
1048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 12, 2022, 10:53:04 PM
Yes Juventus is not as easy as it used to be to dominate Serie A, other teams have improved their quality and even I think Juventus are a bit behind. The team that used to be a strong team is now back, a lot of changes here. If Juventus can't improve, I think they will fall further behind. They have to quickly adjust to the current Serie A.
Juventus lost its dominance as the ruler of Serie A in the last 2 seasons. They last won the Scudetto in the 2019/2020 season. Juventus this season has played very inconsistently, even surprisingly they had to try hard to close the season by being ranked 4th in the standings this season. this is their worst ranking in the last 7 years because statistically in the previous season they were able to close the season in 2nd place in the standings. I think next season Juventus will also have a hard time becoming champions because some of the other big teams are already very strong and will provide a pretty tough competition.
That was what i wishes for back in a couple years ago.

Im sick of that kind domination .. and my wishes seems granted now. Ac milan won the scudetto and juventus a bit struggle to come back stronger this season indeed.
I wish serie A become a competitive league just like the previous season where there is several teams chasing each other till the very last match of the season.

It was a really bad day for Portugal indeed. Switzerland weren't a very challenging opponent for them normally but they managed to surprise Portugal a lot by this 1-0 victory. The winning goal came in the 2nd minute already and I'm still surprised how Portugal weren't able to answer in the whole game. Ronaldo's absence also affected them badly surely but they still had very good players in the team though. Spain didn't experience a similar result against Czech Republic at least and it was an easy win by 2-0.
Any international games should not taken seriously when you see the bookies favorited the one with better squad .. there is no guarantee as national team had limited competition which makes them won't perform efficiently unless of course a world cup where everybody wanted that trophy .. they would perform in maximum effort.

I always avoiding this type of games , because i know something like this often happened , i prefer betting on the oposite with higher odds!

Aurelien Tchouameni for €80,000,000 to Real Madrid is certainly the replacement for Casemiro in 1-2 years. It's so much money, but I already thought 1-2 weeks ago that Real Madrid would sign someone very expensive and that's what happened now. The income from the Champions League will be invested directly.

I would have expected them to go for a really top striker. Benzema is one of the best around but he’s getting old. They tried so hard for Mbappe, I would have thought they’d get somebody else.
Transfer fee thesedays are getting crazy.

€80m today you get one random young guy called tchouameni or whoever he is , never knew as fame as foden , mbappe or haaland who clearly breaking a lot of records and amazed everyone around the globe.
Back in the dayss ... €80m could get you a pair of ronaldinho and a pair of david beckham. Insane.
1051  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: June 11, 2022, 11:24:03 PM
It is like Real Madrid and Barcelona are making many transfer attempts only now. Atletico Madrid and Sevilla don't seem like they are aiming to make some significant changes in their lineups. Of course they don't have as much money as Real Madrid have for example. But I think they both also need to improve the weak points of themselves. Otherwise they can't compete very seriously for the La Liga title as long as Real Madrid and Barcelona are this much powerful.
I don't see any significant movement from Madrid because so far they have only brought two players there, namely Rudiger and Tchoameni and it looks like they will only add 1 more player to their squad but for Barcelona it seems that they are still not satisfied with their current squad because they are still continue to seek some players to Camp Nou for next season.
Rudiger came with zero transfer fee which means they have not splash the money yet , the champions league journey has earned them quite a lot of money .. but of course it's not all the way for their transfer budget.

I believe they are looking for natural striker to match benzema, so far we see there is no aggresive movement indeed after the mbappe transfer fails.

I am glad to see that Stake.com has signed an agreement with Everton Football Club==> https://www.evertonfc.com/news/2642197/who-are-stakecom  Grin    The sponsorship with Watford was not a good match for them, because a world class Sport betting platform cannot be associated with a team that are relegated.  Roll Eyes

Now let's hope Everton can pull up their socks and do much better in the next season.  Huh
Well we heard that.

They are breaking club record for a sponsorship, what a breakthrough! It seems they are really betting themselves on everton this time , hoping for them to go to european competition just like they used to at the other days.
Glad to see crypto company getting its first class insights!

This will be Ronaldo's last season at Manchester United,after this, he will move else where.
Manchester United are currently on the rebuild,and Erik Ten Hag is a tactician, tactically sound.
Seen saying he can't cope with Pep Guardiola and Klopp in the premier league, then they don't understand how football goes!
A season,and Manchester new Coach will dominate the Premier league.
Let me pin this one.

And whenever we come back a year later to see what impact ten haag made during the season , hopefully he bring good things but dont forget that he is only a human.
He can fail as well as others ...
Especially when there is a huge expectation like this.
We'll see.

And the market has made it possible once again to buy btc at a cheap price, crashes are always good for those who understand the long-term goal. Mr. Robert Kiyosaki is absolutely right, what better time to buy if not now, people often complain when btc price is soaring high that it is too high for them to get in, here is an opportunity but I bet many people won't take advantage. They are waiting for the bottom even though it is not easy to know the bottom.
He is talking the truth though..

If you have ever experienced to buy 1 bitcoin at $500 when everyone else thinks that it is the end for bitcoin as the crash from thousands dollar have never been imagined.
But then you had a strong believer then hold it on till last year worth $60k each ..
Then you wilk know that kiyosaki are really talking the truth!

Barcelona are in a bad shape financially but they must find a way out in this. They really need to make their current squad stronger to compete harder in the Champions League especially in next season. The current one might not be quite enough for them to be too much competitive. Xavi would like to see his team doing their best to achieve the Champions League title in the end. It is the same for the La Liga title too of course. They haven't been becoming the champions in the La Liga for three years and in the Champions League for seven years.
It's tough situation.

Xavi might asked to do a miracle by playing with the current squad , a very weak squad depth as injecting more money might be too risky for barcelona to get in bankruptcy.
There is no win win solution fir them at least for now.
1056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 06, 2022, 10:19:13 PM
Even though it seemed almost certain that Di Maria would play for Juventus from next season, there are now some complications. The biggest problem seems to be in the contract length. Juventus wants him to sign a 2-year contract, but Angel only wants a 1-year deal because his wish is to end his playing career in Argentina. Barcelona has now stepped in and although I haven't read anything yet about the type of contract they are ready to offer him, he might prefer going back to Spain than going to Juve.   

Of course he may want to return to Spain, but I think Juventus will accept a 1-year contract for Di Maria. Even if it's only for one year, Di Maria will add strength to Juventus. Juve, which plans to get the maximum efficiency from Di Maria, has already started to make plans for the championship next year. If we think like Di Maria, she is right. It is the most natural right for him to want to finish football in his own country.
Well actually juventus or any other italian teams are a perfect place for experienced players like di maria.
He could get more than 1 year contract offer especially if he had great influence.
Im pretty sure that di maria will fit very well into srie a playing style.

We'll see. This 34 years old still has a potential to redeemed.

Arsenal need a player who can be a target up front. Because this season their problem is that, they don't have players who are really central to creating chances and scoring goals. If they don't realize this quickly I'm afraid they will be in the same shape, which means they will be quite difficult to compete in the Premier League next season.

I see a dark scene for the arsenal next season.

1 - Newcastle is getting stronger

2 - Manchester united has a new coach who has already proved that he is a good coach

3 - Tottenham is getting stronger

4 - Aston villa also made some good buys, so next season they will be stronger

5 - Gigante City will be heavily armed, that is, it will run over all teams that it can

The question is:

where will the arsenal end up next season? they are not investing like tottenham or manchester united or aston villa or newcastle, maybe arsenal doesn't even get to 8th position
You know what ... arsenal always being arsenal , when everybody else underestimating them ... it makes them much more unpredictable.
Just like last season when nobody talk about arsenal chance to play in the champions league but then suddenly sitting at top.
But once everybody talk about how great they are .. suddenly they got a losing streak lol.

Ladies and gentleman , it's 4rsen4l for you  Grin

As for Pogba I still have my doubts but I don't rule out this could also happen because so far he's only been close to Juventus

Reportedly Pogba is very close to Juventus some local media reported this although Pogba has not officially confirmed it but observers believe he will go to Juventus

Pogba is officially a free transfer after his contract expires June 30, 2022, Manchester United had to let Pogba leave after there was no contract extension agreement. Pogba is rumored to be returning to Juventus, but the gossip threatened to end in failure, Because Liverpool are ready to tackle Juventus to get Pogba signature. Jurgen Klopp really wants Pogba to wear a Liverpool costume next season, Liverpool maneuvers are a threat to Juventus who have wanted Pogba services long ago.
Im sure it's gonna be a #POGBACK.

Juventus are no doubt a place where he belong , he get respected there and making him had a full confident to play 100% of his capacity.
He's been unhappy at manchester united since even his second year there .. he successfully hold that uncomfortable feelig till now.

It’s kind of hard to understand what you’re saying here but I think I got your point.  This has always been the same way as any other assets. The stock market is no different. People panic in hard time but always try and take advantage of an asset performing well during up times. This is why dollar cost averaging is so important. Keep contributing the same amount over the course of time, this way you’ll hit both low and highs.
Hmmm yeah to keep accumulating your holdings are the only way to make you feel better in a bearish time , you'll feel i hold enough... i bought enough and i am on green!
Unlike when you do the buy order one time only... there might be a lot of regret.

Just like when you see a low price like 30k now then regret it when the price keep moving up unstoppable to 100k or so.

It is still not clear where Frenkie de Jong is going. If you believe the stories, he will not stand for a transfer to Man United because he wants to play the Champions League. Man City would be a more logical choice.

I think frenkie  situation is not just about champions league football. The Barcelona midfielder is simply not interested in a move away from his dream club Barcelona. In recent interviews, he has reiterated that he wants to remain at the camp nou and also play as a deep lying midfielder. It remains to be seen the future that xavi promises him
True.

But what you can do if barcelona need a fresh cash?
To save the club from a deep financial destruction , the transfer might could help a lot , no matter how big frenkie de jong desire to stay ... once the club has made the decision to sell him out , he might feel broken but it is what it is.
Barcelona are in huge debt now.
