The second half of the season is also a long way off and I think Benzema has more time to recover from the injury he is having at the moment. And if for example there is no Benzema at Real Madrid when all the teams can already compete in the second half of the season. I don't think Real Madrid will also be weak just because there is not one player from their squad, because the Real Madrid coach must have prepared another player to replace Benzema.
Even if Benzema can recover, Benzema is possible to get injured again. You must know that Benzema already got injured several times so far, it is proof that he isn't in the best condition this season. Real Madrid can't rely on Benzema, they need a new striker to keep the strength of their attacking line. Real Madrid only has Benzema who plays well as a center forward, there is no other player who can replace his role in the current Real Madrid squad.

Dude, you must know that Benzema has a big role in Real Madrid squad. If you think missing Benzema won't bring any impact, you are totally wrong. Without Benzema, they will be difficult to win, especially when they play against a big team like Barcelona.


Yeah , just look at the current top scorer leaderboard ... noone close to lewandowski 13 goals.

It must be benzema compete with lewy , a full fit benzema of course. Noone put a pressure on how lewy could win the pichichi .. the golden boot of la liga , he could just win it easily without a tough competition as it stands the closest one is 8 goals by muriqi from mallorca and borja iglesias from betis. A boost confidence for lewy to keep scoring goals and bring barcelona closer to get back the la liga title , an ideal situation.

Prices such as 13,000$ are inevitable. A few more projects are about to get exposed and cause further panic which will just fill the pockets of whales which are accumulating - preparing for the bull run in 2025.

This is just a FUD and nothing more. I am not saying that it is impossible to go to 13k, there is of course a possibility that it could, but also you should remember how we have no idea whats going to happen and that means it could very well be reaching 20k tomorrow and we do not know for sure when projects will be exposed and even if they would and how people would even react to it. So there is no guarantee that the price will be 13k, it may or may not and we have no idea. The word "inevitable" is the problem, if you talked with possibilities it would be fine, but if you say inevitable, then you are wrong.
True , we have been trhough the situation like this many times and we get better everyday , every month , every year ... everytime we passed the FUD , the though situation that makes everyone especially the newcomer in doubt on how bitcoin would survive with all these weak spots exposed , we always find a way out.

And that what makes bitcoin worth higher even more , we are a couple years apart from the halving day as well , you can always expect something big at that day or the days after the halving.

Juventus shouldn't focus too much on winning titles, they should focus more on their own game. The reason is that it is true that they have won in a row, but I cannot say that their game is satisfactory. In fact, I think in some of their wins it was a stroke of luck that came their way. There is time for them to be able to perform even more satisfactorily, also some of the players have recovered from injury.
Exactly, they may not focus on winning the title, but however, they are trying to get as best as they can. However to survive being in the top 3 so they can be included again in the UCL. This is hard enough to replace Napoli so far because Napoli is really impressive this season, they have quite a high difference in the points and they are always playing their best performance. But, this may be different for EuropeLeague, they may try harder because they also have a chance to make it. Although it will be very difficult to realize, they still have the chance and they may also focus on this.


Nope. It was just 10 points ... juventus has prove it was just easy to catch more than just points away like what currently happened with napoli at the top of the league with its invincibke run 15 league matches unbeaten is really something , crazy achievement but the question is ... will they remain at top level after the world cup break?

We will see it in the first 5 matches later started in a game against inter milan at 4th of january , they will have to play against juventus as well and as roma at the end of january , though obstacles.
564  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When You Heard About Bitcoin For the First Time? on: November 28, 2022, 11:26:04 PM
I first heard about Bitcoin back in early 2011. I was so stupid that I did not even care and did not bothered to investigate it further, I prompty considered it as one Ponzi scheme or scam and decided to ignore it completely. It was only in late 2013 that I looked at it with looking eyes and finally understood what is was all about. If I did the same back in 2011 I would be rich.

Despite all of this, once I understood what Bitcoin and cryptos were all about I promptly started to mine and started to use it as currency. This is actually one of the reasons I do not have more coins that I do now, but hell, I did contributed part of my life to it and help make it what it has become and ended up having my share.

Today, I can say Bitcoin changed my life to better. And we are still just starting the ride.
True .. back in the days bitcoin for me and many people that time in 2012 bitcoin thing often linked with a ponzi scheme as there a lot of business model running with that way and uses bitcoin as one of the tool which make me personally thinks it was just yet another scam ponzi.

There are really a lot business offering you a member get member commision which paid by bitcoin , i went that way first as i was in affiliation business and get my first bitcoin through a random company that offers me commissions in bitcoin and then bitmedia introduce me a whole new level of bitcoin and then here i am.

German Sky Sport News is reporting that FC Bayern is still interested in signing Harry Kane next summer. Bayern is still looking for a new striker after Lewandowski moved to FC Barcelona. The possible transfer fee is estimated at €80-100m. Harry Kane does not seem to be unwilling to transfer to FC Bayern. Even though there is currently no first-hand information confirming his interest.

Harry Kane remains Bayern's desired signing for the summer. The club is neither confirming nor denying the interest in public, the bosses are trying to lay the ground for the transfer in the background.

A move will be more complicated than Mané's transfer, for example. Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is considered a tough negotiator and the player would cost €80-100m. It's very difficult, but Bayern are working on it.

Harry Kane is open for a move. He can well imagine it.

Source: https://twitter.com/iMiaSanMia/status/1597323469511077888

IMHO, a transfer of Kane to FC Bayern would of course be one of the biggest transfers in the club's history. If you can really sign him for €80m, then I am sure that FC Bayern will do everything in their power to complete the transfer. However, we have to wait and see. The matter will certainly drag on for a few more months. At least I don't expect a quick decision. What do you guys think on this rumor?
I doubt Bayern will spend that much money on a player this season. They already spent enough although they didn't get what they were waiting for.
Now for Spurs, they will not let him go that easily and will try to grab as much money as possible, they already didn't let him go for City for a higher price if I am not mistaken. I think Bayern could get a younger and talented player for the same price.
Considering the age of harry kane that is not young anymore but he is on peak level which could bring bayern a high expectation in the next 3 years or so as he is 29 years old now ... the price tag of 80 million is a bit overpriced for a team like bayern who put efficiency above all .

Just like sadio mane with his 41 million transfer fee , similar fee agreed by bayern and spurs might be a great deal to miss by bayern but yeah spurs surely win't let him easily.

First, countries with weak economies will accept bitcoin as their currency. We saw this in El Salvador.

With such a process, countries with weak economies will begin to participate. Then, the top 20 countries in the world economy ranking will introduce their own digital currencies.

Later, crypto money will emerge that European countries can use in their trade with each other.

An enormous art is being built without a pen in the hand of the painter. But Satoshi will pick up the pen one day.

A country with a weak economy must certainly look for alternatives or prospective substitutes of paper money that is easy to shake, the common economic crisis is usually due to the speculator easily to buy and sell paper money so that the Fiat Drop value is significant.
First we would just offered two alternatives between the paper money or the digital money that issued by government also the cryptocurrency that has been exist for quiet a while then the next they would just feel the benefit among the alternatives , which bitcoin should win everyone's hearts!

The perfect currency for our corrupted & capitalized world we lived in.
567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your first attempt to play gambling on: November 28, 2022, 11:05:42 PM
I never tried gambling when I was a kid. It was strange to me until later in life when I was a young man. Obsessed with the testimonials I was getting from a few staff that worked with me, on how someone in some place else won big out of a little stake, I tried my luck on some betting options. Of course there was no speculation or analysis to it but, just some random trying my hands on the options I had before me and surely, I learned the hard way, I lost!
Good thing, my stake wasn't huge but I surely tried some huge stakes at some point and still, I lost. Then I realised gambling was just about the lucky and that doesn't come often. Had to be smart about it.
Back in the days where binary options were really famous! I did the same thing if binary options surely considered 100% as a gambling but if not then i do sports betting in my first attempt back in 2008 i guess where the all england final between chelsea and manchester united.

I was challenged by my neighbor to have a stake on which one going to lift the trophy and how much goals would be scored , i went full lost lol .

In the second game today we again had a lot of emotions and a lot of goals. In the end, Ghana won 3-2 against South Korea, but the determination of the Asian team in the second half deserves a lot of credit. However, this is little consolation for the Koreans, who already have minimal chances of promotion. Portugal can qualify from this group if they beat Uruguay in today's match. I hope it will be an interesting game as well.

Ghana deserved a second chance after their result in Portugal, they tried their hardest but it was too late to equalize the last goal scored by Portugal and I love the way they converged that energy on Korea Republic though Korea really retaliated after the second half but Kudus was prepared not to let go of every chance ghana had and finished with 3-2 just the same manner Portugal did them in round 1

From the looks of things, Portugal will be lucky in the outcome against Uruguay, as Ronaldo just scored a goal with a great assist from Fernandes, and Portugal currently leads the field statistically. So far, the match has lasted 70 minutes, and I believe the score will be 2-0 because the ball distribution among Uruguay players is unsatisfactory.

They always heating really late , ghana should have get a better result in the previous  match against portugal , and they are now prove it by beating south korea in style while at the other side south korea in a mission impossible as they have to beat portugal in the last match of the group.

While waiting the result of ghana vs uruguay.

It as Union Berlin were never strong,  they were just winning their games by luck. So astonished to see Union drop to the fifth position,  which means they might likely drop below their current position if they are not able to  win their remaining games.
There is nothing to be surprised at for Union Berlin if, after the world cup, Union Berlin has not been able to fix all the weaknesses in the team. In the Bundesliga the team that will do very well is Bayern Munich and this season there is no other team that can be called strong other than people who are already famous at their young age.

Union berlin is weak at the first place tho.

They just have a great start of the season while bayern not in the mood. Now things have just back to normal days where bayern in their own domestic league dominating. We can expect union berlin to reach the champions league position at tops , no more surprise in the rest of the bundesliga matches.

I get your points but trading isn't gambling especially when you know what you're doing. Trading at some points might seem to be gambling to most especially newbies who just want to make millions or possibly double that trading capital at the instance which at the end leads to destruction at last.


When you want to make profit quick then you can be gambling because you will be hasty without proper analysis and this is the challenge of newbie or any other trader who can not hold emotions. Jumping in and out can be looked as gambling but trading is not gambling to be precise.


I always advice people to treat trading as a business rather than a get rich quick scheme and just expect to make millions over night without all the necessary processes engaged.
I think people should invest more time in learning first before jumping into the market and as well as work on their emotions and greed level to attain a great height as those are the major determinants of successful trading.

Getting rich quick syndrome is the first way to failure in trade. If a trader has this mentality, he can't even subject himself to training. Training is for people who have passion if you don't have passion you can't have that time to check in training to know why your trade was not profitable rather than they want to rely on copy trading.
Those people with successful trading stories always flexing money whether it's intentional or not and it's making worse when a newbie come to give it a try with these reasons ... the possibility to treat trading like gambling really high at this point , pretty different with thise people who come with a vision.

I mean a vision to see how they do the trade with caution not in hurry to getting rich quick like what they witnessed in their illusion.
572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 27, 2022, 11:14:22 PM
There is a really great balance about the performances of the Messi - Mbappe - Neymar trio now. They all have showed really good performances by making important contributions with goals and assists. Maybe Mbappe was more selfish as for assists but he is the most scorer of the team currently on one hand.

The only thing PSG need is to see them showing the same ambition in the Champions League as of this stage. The Bayern Munich draw is really tough for them as it is no different than an early finale. If this trio lack in performance then it would bring their end in the tournament.
Psg always drowning with its ambition to win their first ever champions league trophy.

With the world cup currently each of them playing .. i can only see a risk of losing the player on injury especially with a tight schedule plus a probability to reach the final making some of players would have to miss some league matches to recover , a 50/50 chance for me and i back bayern to qualify.
573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 27, 2022, 11:05:17 PM
I don't think Manchester United would be able to sign Osimhen or Vlahovic. I think the same for not only this January but also for next summer. Because before anything else they would surely have opponents in a probable race to sign these players. For example Real Madrid would be in line to sign Osimhen and then the Red Devils would be in a really disadvantageous condition.

I don't think Vlahovic would leave Juventus so soon as well. As long as Juventus have a good run in the rest of the season I don't see any reason for Vlahovic to even think about leaving.
Even if vlahovic choose to switch the club to the english side manchester united .. i don't think he will fit to the premier league , but you know what ... as the manchester united club are on sale now ... in the new ownership i think a lot can changed , so for now nobody really know.

Osimhen is a hidden gem but real madrid seems had vinicius which make it unlikely for me , a lethal striker needed rather than a player like osimhen.

Germans have a horrible job left to do, and that's going to be a very tough job.....

...., but Japan could be a trouble, Germany would need to win with a big margin to make sure that they are doing fine, and it is not impossible but they dug themselves into a hole there.
Germany will most likely win their match against Costa Rica with a two or three goal margin. I think Japan will have a tougher job drawing against Spain.

....
FIFA WC Qatar is sometimes full of surprises.
It's been full of surprises. I didn't expect Japan losing to Costa Rica.

......

All eyes on Portugal vs. Uruguay. A must win for the latter and a must protect lead for the former. I think this is going to be a draw.


You mean as tough as when japan beat germany?

Well sometimes football went really unpredictable like this , when everyone thinks japan should have beat costa rica but the result they went bad to lost against them and win the game previously against germany and at the final match of the group they have to get draw at least to qualify , world cup always providing us a high tense like this, we do love it.

Frankfurt is not a strong team. They are very lucky to have qualified for the round of 16 of the Champions League. I don't think Frankfurt has any chance of winning against Napoli.
Seems like you have watched champion's league for just a few seasons.You will be surprised when the tables turn  Grin
Eintracht Frankfurt is no team to underestimate and I think they can pull off a surprise on a good day.

And I certainly really hope that Manchester City and PSG will be ideal Finalists.
I hope not

It will be the first Champion's League final I won't watch since I started in 2002.
Football , yeah we are talking about football where a couple of minutes could change everything.

Despite yeah statistically so far napoli looks unstoppable with the recent form and much better but not even 90minutes x2 , like i said it requires a couple minutes to change the situation , we have witnessed it all time to time , nobody should be underestimated at this stage.

USA vs England was a pretty good match, and the draw was not a bad outcome for the US's prospects.  Group B is turning out to be a tougher nut to predict than I originally thought.  The US should have beaten Wales, and they looked like the better team against England.  Hopefully they'll take 3 points from Iran, but again, in their match with Wales today, Iran didn't look like the same team that let England score six goals.

The group stage has been fun so far.  Brazil is fun to watch, so many familiar faces from the Premier League.  They looked pretty comfortable against Serbia, it's hard to see them not taking 9 points out of the Group Stage.  
There are a lot of possibility in this group as each of them could still have a chance to qualify even wales with 1 point at the bottom , my wild guess is that england might be slipped in wales match and USA held another draw by iran and make iran finish at the top , wales second.

But yeah it should be like , england beat wales and USA beat iran at the last match of the group stage.

It seems like Real Madrid have closed the doors for Ronaldo from now on.

As you might have heard there have been some rumours relating them to him in January. They were showing the reason for it as Benzema was injured and they would think of bringing a temporary player in his place. However Benzema is returning very soon. Even if he didn't return I don't know if Real Madrid would be eager to sign a 6-month contract with Ronaldo anyway.
Unless Real Madrid management stated that they don't need Ronaldo, we can't conclude that Real Madrid won't sign Ronaldo in January. In my opinion, Ronaldo still has a chance to join Real Madrid if they can't sign Mbappe, Osimhen, or Lautaro Martinez. Real Madrid must know that they need another top striker for more options in CF position. The season is still far from the end, they must prepare the solution if Benzema gets injured or can't play at his best again.


Would be a tough decision for florentino perez ...

And for ronaldo himself , he still has an ambition to keep playing at top level where any club that play in champions league which yeah he might going somewhere like ligue 1 maybe? Psg? Who knows but the rumor so far has zero clue about where his next destination , real madrid as well seems a bit fear to sign him back as they know that he is not young anymore and might have less contribution while the club may have to spend huge money on salary.
578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I Am So Done With Betting Until.... on: November 24, 2022, 11:04:29 PM
Upsets happen in most sporting events and even in the esports, they do happen. I've experienced it before when I bet for the favorite team and didn't consider the odds for the underdog team.

And for FIFA, fans and bettors it is no brainer to bet on Argentina if the opponent is Saudi Arabia. But well, what happen has happened and that's gambling on our end that things can be sometimes upsetting if the unexpected thing occurs.
Well that's what i mean to prefer betting against the odds always better ... the hurt feeling when you know that you are losing the bet on a 1.1xx even worst below that odds , it hurts ... really hurts i knew it especially if you do it in full confidence and allin! The trauma will be there for sure.

But when you do the opposite ... betting on the underdogs in hope to get 3x or even 8x return ... you do it in nothing to lose style and when you won it , the feeling way much better than anything, satisfying.

Brazilians are born football ballers, so I knew Serbia had no chance of defeating them. Brazil also has a perfect record when it comes to receiving no yellow cards, so congratulations to them on their first victory. I love Brazilian football because it is so entertaining and exciting. I believe this was the first World Cup game I actually enjoyed. Looking at their performance Brazil did not struggle much to put two goals inside that net they are naturally born good luck to them.

Well since there is a couple matches that upset the favorites like germany beaten by japan and argentina slipped in a game against saudi arabia ... makes the match between brazil vs serbia doubting the favorite to win it easily and it's a bit proven brazil win it in struggle.

Luckily the double from richarlison saved brazil from an upset , what a golazo!

A personal experience become a witness.

Either the future trader have no sufficient bankroll to keep it back to green after a loss or it's just the game of math odds.
