I don't know why you guys only discuss between Liverpool and Real Madrid while we're still on top 16 elimination, there's many other big clubs that has higher chance to win e.g. Napoli, Benfica, Manchester City, PSG, AC Milan and Bayern Munich.

Cody Gakpo show a good performance for Netherlands in the world cup, but we don't know about his performance in Liverpool. What if Gakpo is similar like Nunez? Nunez was a sharp striker in Benfica, but he doesn't a same performance when he joined Liverpool.

It's the most talked about fixture in the round of 16 probably because of the pedegree of both clubs in the competition. This is isn't just any fixture but a repeat of last seasons Final. It's a game between Englands greatest champions league club against the biggest club in the competition. Matches like Bayern against PSG will be breathtaking but this one should be more intense considering how far both teams usually go in the competition. Having to face each other seems so early and it will be a big disappointment for any of the team to get knocked out so early
With the presence of Gakpo in the Liverpool squad, it will obviously increase their confidence, but still, from another perspective, Madrid is still very strong, especially considering their performance in the previous group phase. I actually still hope there will be some additions from Madrid but even if there isn't I still hope that later Benzema will be able to play and not have problems because this is something quite important. It's a revenge mission for Liverpool but looking at the previous 2 matches in the final they always lost and of course this makes Madrid more confident to look further.

Some news sources are saying that Rafael Leao is eager to play in the English Premier League in the future. If this is true then it is eliminating the other big team options from different leagues directly. For example Real Madrid have been among the teams having some interest in signing him. Actually Real Madrid still have Mbappe as number one target in their list for the attacking line. If they don't manage to make this transfer next summer then they would look for other alternatives.

Leao can actually adapt to the Premier League football. His playing style is pretty nice for that. But I don't know if there are any Premier League teams interested in him yet. But Leao is a player who shouldn't be missed for sure. He wants to focus on his game at Milan for now.
There are currently several reports suggesting that Manchester United and Chelsea are on the same radar for signing this player.
Leao's own contract will end soon and when this statement was issued this obviously invited quite a big reaction but the problem is that it will probably still be the same as before namely in the price because of course if Milan releases this player they will try to continue to be at the highest price in the clause release.

Betis and Athletic Bilbao have almost the same odds for the win.
But it is totally normal of course. Because these teams are very close to each other in the standings. They have very similar statistics expect the number of goals scored. Athletic Bilbao have been more productive about that so far. But I think they will have big difficulties in this game as for scoring multiple goals. I'm expecting a more controlled game from both sides. My expectation is a draw with goals like 1-1 as well. I don't expect Betis to lose here by benefiting from home stadium advantage.

I won't bet on that game either, both teams are unstable, so either team can win the game, but about a draw I wouldn't consider it, Athletic Bilbao has a chance of winning the game
Their odds are quite good but indeed the risk is quite big to be in one of them because this is also not certain, especially as you said, their condition is not very stable and they still have the same opportunities.
I'm also not going to be in this gamble and better watch comfortably but I still feel that the match will still be a draw, even if someone wins it will only be a narrow win.

Lewandowski's absence, indeed, will leave Barcelona somewhat confused.  Lewandowski is a top quality striker.  There is no one like him in current Barca.  But it will depend on Xavi, how he deals with this absence.
3 games without Lewandowski makes it a bit complicated but on the other hand it could also be a good stage for Depay because Xavi doesn't have another pure striker now and if Depay is trusted then he has to do his best to at least keep him in because if seeing the rumors now Depay is on the sales list so he has to do his best to survive.
Luckily Lewandowski will go through the game against Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Getafe whose form is not very good at the moment but this still doesn't mean they can win of course.

The market is being connected with the halving and based on the same is the expectation of price movement. Over the years the change haven't happened overnight, but there are possible chances of price growing high or crashing down in no time. 2024 is predicted to be the year for the next ath, considering the same Whales have begun to accumulate as much possible.

People are well aware of the market and have got better understanding, if not whenever there happens market crash it reaches the bottom. Now what we see is quite good and positioned better.
Indeed, many predict the next bullrun will occur in 2024. In this case, it depends on the game of whales in managing the Bitcoin market. Maybe they won't do this before seeing that Bitcoin users really are at a saturation point. Maybe 2024 is not part of the bullrun prediction, but rather a comparison of the history of Bitcoin price growth. So that the whales can change this history to get the direction they want.
But really this just goes back to speculation because absolutely no one will know about this and if we look at it earlier too when a lot of people thought bitcoin was $100k last year everyone had to feel disappointed because the bearish was fast enough so we really can't really believe although it is hoped that bitcoin will quickly return to the bull run.
On the other hand what must be done is to continue to be in bitcoin and if it is possible and possible to buy then do it as long as we are able to do that then that is the best.

don't think that's an excuse when I say about Bellingham who can't be brought in later because they spent on Nunez, moreover they have also offered a big price for Bellingham and of course another big offer of 88 million for Enzo is also a little questionable if their condition is not very good .
I think this is a strategy because it will be difficult for them to bring in Enzo and Bellingham at once so they choose one of them as the main focus.
Bellingham to Manchester city is more probable right now. PSG, Real Madrid are also keen interests besides Liverpool as the least. The 19year old has a bright future ahead and would likely want a transfer to a top team with fire as the Mancity team has proven to be so far.
On the other hand, Manchester United had to ensure a one-year extension by triggering clauses in the contracts of Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw, Diogo Dalot and Fred. Rashford was already down to the end of his contract, and this is a sure sign both for him and above mentioned because of their impact in the team so far.
But until now Bellingham still hasn't given a stance on the rumors about him and this is proven that he gave a pretty firm statement that he would still focus on Dortmund as long as his transfer hasn't become a reality but that doesn't mean this is also a strong statement he will survive because sooner or later he will will leave from Signal Iduna Park.
As for Manchester United, Dallot and Rashford should actually be prioritized, talking about Fred and Shaw, they still haven't shown a real existence for Manchester United, but if Ten Hag doesn't want to be bothered by looking for new ones, then I think a new contract will still happen.
1487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 25, 2022, 09:57:28 PM
Liverpool are thinking of giving up on Bellingham transfer due to some complicated details of a probable agreement.

This means that one of the biggest competitors to sign him will be out of the race. I wonder what the complicated part is there. Because Real Madrid and Manchester City are also after him in the end. I guess that it isn't related to money. Because I don't think Liverpool are financially bad now. Yeah, they spent a lot of money for Nunez like €80m. However they sold many players for a good amount of money also. Therefore they must be still strong when it comes to their transfer budget.
I don't think that's an excuse when I say about Bellingham who can't be brought in later because they spent on Nunez, moreover they have also offered a big price for Bellingham and of course another big offer of 88 million for Enzo is also a little questionable if their condition is not very good .

They are followed by Betis in this indicator, they conceded 12 goals, do you understand how reliable Barcelona's defense is? Their attack also shares a leading position with Real, they scored 33 goals in 14 matches, they are doing great. There are still financial problems, but gradually they will be able to solve them, they also have a good bench, maybe Xavi just needs more time.
People need to admit Barcelona is better now but maybe people continue to cover up the facts because of their hatred for Barcelona. Of course this is not a good yardstick for analysis, these statistics are very important for gamblers rather than just judging from the outside and luck.
I think everyone agrees with that because regardless he is still good enough and represents a different color for Barcelona this season.
But the problem is that there are still many skeptics and this includes myself because Xavi is still unable to be flexible when they are in several different competitions.
They just seem to focus in one league but struggle in other leagues. Not only this season but also last season when they focused on La Liga they lost the Champions League and lost the Europa League as well. At the moment the conditions are quite the same when they did quite well in La Liga they disappointed in the Champions League even though with Barcelona now qualifying for the Champions League is the best thing for them. and it's not impossible when the Europa League is also now even though they are seeded but we can't know what will happen later because they might not qualify again either.

I don't think that Martinez is better than De Gea these days. De Gea is still showing a very consistent performance for Manchester United. I can't talk about that much consistency for Martinez on the other hand. Yeah, his performance at Argentina (especially in the finale) was really amazing. But I can't say that he has been that much impressive in general at Aston Villa so far.

I'm talking about this because there have been some rumours such as Manchester United will replace De Gea with Martinez. I think they should extend with De Gea at least for one more season until finding a better and younger goalkeeper.
De Gea's problem from the last few seasons is still sometimes focusing on his eye which is a problem but I think he is still good enough and even last season he always fends for himself when their defenders make mistakes. I think it will be very difficult if he does go but of course Martinez can still be a good option especially with his performance in the world cup but the problem is whether he can live up to the stage he is going to continue because being in the world cup is not a guarantee in the league.

Lots of altcoins been added on the market almost everyday or every now and then but same as you said that lots had also died and pass away which means that you should really be that careful
on choosing which project you should really be dealing off with. You cant just throw up some funds into that random behavior and would rather be worth on putting funds or investment with Bitcoin.
In speaking with altcoin holding or into my bags then most of them are shit, their prices are almost close to zero. What im doing with those things? Just let those things die completely,
if ever there are ones who do make out some pumps then its just understandable that you do sell out.
I wasn't too naive also in the first years I always did in altcoins and now many of the altcoins that I have are completely worthless and this is like a collection or a reminder for myself.
More and more projects are coming every day and more and more projects are ending up in scams and shitcoins so instead of wasting time on that I think it would be better to just be in bitcoin even though there are still a lot of temptations but I think my choice here is the right thing for you at the moment.
What happens is that as time has passed the ratio of good projects to bad projects has been reduced to almost nothing, at the beginning when this market was on its early stages it seemed to me the developers were genuine on their desire to try to create a better coin than bitcoin, however once the ico craze took place the number of those developers went down and scammers took over, and since then things have gotten even worse to the point that I would be surprised that if out of 100 coins a single one was a legitimate project.
Actually, in this case, we don't need to be surprised because sooner or later, when it's easy to make projects or coins, it's certain that something like this will happen, especially at this time, it's not too difficult to create coins with minimal capital and leave them when you've really benefited, so scammers are indeed must be rampant here.
But on the other hand, if no one really believes that it can actually be eliminated slowly, the problem is that there are still many who are still tempted by things like this and so it is very difficult to eradicate this kind of thing.
1491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: December 24, 2022, 05:39:47 PM
At least there is a guarantee to continue to be in the main line-up if he considers staying when compared to PSG, especially there is still Neymar who is definitely difficult to replace, even though if he agrees it looks like he will be sacrificed. but I don't think it's that simple because in this case there isn't a single rumor about Neymar right now because his big salary still gets in the way.

Players don't always consider the chances of not being in the first eleven or being a regular starter in a club, for a young player like Rasford who has been doing well in the Manchester United team to think of moving to France to play alongside with Mbappe, Messi, and Neymar, I believe he knows that he won't be able to play regular matches rather he will play from the bench unless Naymer decides to leave the club or is wounded. This could be a rumor but most tines players make some decision just to play with a particular player which has been their long dream.
It's very funny if there are players who have pretty good prospects but don't want to be in the main line-up as their target because in any case being in the main squad makes him play more hours and has many opportunities to continue to develop so when there are players who don't want to being in the main squad when his career and age are quite good does that make sense?
If he leaves just because of the money then I think in the end it will only make things more difficult for him in a condition where his career declines over time because he is always on the bench.
1492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: December 24, 2022, 04:56:23 PM
For the level in this competition, I am not worried for Lewndowsky for the time being. The problem is that once the body indicates that it is no longer possible, then it is really done. We also saw that with other players who went back to South America from the Spanish league. And La Liga also has a fairly high level. Barcelona can only use a fit Lewandowsky. They will eventually have to find a replacement for him, but that will certainly take another 1.5 seasons before he can no longer. Depay is a completely different caliber and is definitely not among the top.

Still, Memphis has a quality.  We cannot deny this.  He also played important matches with Barcelona and earned points.  It cannot be compared to Lewandowski because Lewandowski is one of the best strikers of the last century.  Despite his age, he is performing at a top level in Barcelona.  For Memphis you should compare with more general players.  Memphis has the quality to play comfortably in Barcelona.
The problem is that at this point Xavi really wants to get rid of Depay, it seems that for the sake of launching to find new players, especially with rumors that have been spread that Depay is one of the players they will be auctioning off for transfers this time, the indications are quite clear that they want more from players and Of course it's not Depay.
Even though he is still quite good but when there is no trust from Xavi it will be very useless in my opinion because for Barcelona now Xavi is in control.

Most people nowadays look more at prestige so that when they buy something branded it can be a source of pride for them and this is what actually gets them into trouble.
It doesn't mean that buying something branded is wrong, but maybe we also have to adjust whether we can afford to do that or not because if later it seems forced I think it's better to look for alternatives regarding function rather than prestige.
Sometimes the main problem in investing is not choosing what to invest, but when we have more money, we forget ourselves.
You should really be having that everything should be balanced, its not really that bad on buying something branded or known or expensive as long you do know on how to budget up your money and wont still
forget about your priorities.Some cant really just able to bare on saving up and instead they would really be spending on things on what they do have in mind which is really that a very behavior of someone.
You cant really be able to save up money on that case because you would really be that eager on spending or buying once you do know that you have money to used on.
Savings does really play a crucial part not only on investment but also for emergencies too.
As I said before, it's not wrong to buy branded goods there, but when we tend to force it, it will actually be very burdensome, so I think prioritizing function over prestige will definitely be better in this case.
We must know the limits and we must know the priorities that must be prioritized so that later you will not feel that your choice was wrong.
In this case there may be many perspectives but I think investing is certainly far better than forcing a glamorous life when we are in trouble. Even though we only live once and make the best use of time, of course we also have to think further for the future.

I don't know if Rodrygo ever played as a center forward. But he seems more suitable as the right winger in Real Madrid. He is a quick player, he can deliver good assists, and he has accuracy in shooting. With his ability and his height (1,74 m), the ideal position for him is a winger (not a center forward). In my opinion, he must improve his physical strength and his height if he wants to be a center forward. If Real Madrid has no money, they can use the alternative to make Rodrygo be a CF. But if Real Madrid has a money to buy top striker, it is better to buy a new striker (Mbappe should be the ideal CF).
When Benzema was not actually there, if you look at Madrid's matches in the previous season, he was often projected there even though there were indeed some changes made, such as when Asensio and Hazard were also tried there but of course more often on Rodrygo.
Speaking of strengths he is still very young and can still be honed and of course this could be very good if he can do that.
But I agree with what you said, he is a runner type of player and indeed Madrid suits his style on both wings Vini and Rodrygo can be a reference although I also like to see Valverde in that position but it doesn't really matter because Valverde is also very good in midfield.

In terms of strikers I would probably exclude Mbappe here because I still don't think he will be at Madrid after what he did last season.

So, if Rashford does have considerations to continue playing in the starting eleven, then settling at Manchester United is the right choice. Because after all, Manchester United under the coach of Erik ten Hag has also been able to stay in the top five so far which of course is something great.
Because it would be useless if Rashford earns a high fee but is only a substitute player, because I think PSG are not short of players for their attack line. So yes, settling down at Manchester United and rising with the team, of course that would be great for his long term career with Manchester United.
At least there is a guarantee to continue to be in the main line-up if he considers staying when compared to PSG, especially there is still Neymar who is definitely difficult to replace, even though if he agrees it looks like he will be sacrificed. but I don't think it's that simple because in this case there isn't a single rumor about Neymar right now because his big salary still gets in the way.

In fact, I think it would be better to transfer it to bitcoin to be more certain.
In general, with the current conditions, for almost a year now, there have actually been a lot of altcoins that have died, and I'm actually quite grateful to have been spared from that.
Altcoins are very risky rather than incurring losses to be transferred to other altcoins. I think it would be better if now I immediately save it in bitcoin if I really feel that the altcoin I have chosen now is not going well.

Hopefully, you are wrong and altcoins will hold. Bitcoin is now trading around the 17 k mark which I believe to be a base. It seems to be holding and an accummulation phase as started. If this is true, we will see the altcoins holding as well
In general, not all of the altcoins will hold. There will be out in the market when we go back to the bull run and that's for sure, and for now, we're already seeing the impact of the bear market.
And this is why, for those that have a set of altcoins that are uncommon, should start thinking to cut loss and transfer the value of it into some other better altcoins if that's what you prefer.
But much better if you go to choose bitcoin because it's the best and proven choice that you'll never regret.
In fact, I think it would be better to transfer it to bitcoin to be more certain.

On the other hand, I think Manchester United still needs a striker who can really become a mainstay player. Anthony Martial has not been performing well due to his propensity for injuries, and after Ronaldo's departure it is only natural that someone thinks of a player who deserves to replace him. Depay or Gakpo are the only two possible signings, I'd love to see one of them there this season.

Yeah now that you mention it they do have players that go injured frequently so I think they do need a striker. Galpo for sure was the name they were interested in when the World Cup started and he started throwing some spectacular performances in group stage. About Delay, I don't know but can't deny it or rule it out completely given the United history of re-signing players they let go earlier for example Pogba.
It's not only Gakpo now because there are several names of other Dutch players and of course discussions about Felix as well as from Atletico are still being heard.
As for Depay, I'm not too sure about this because I think it's better to look for something more certain, especially with Depay's current condition at Barcelona, actually this isn't really worth it, in my opinion, if you want to be forced into the Manchester United squad.
1499  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: December 22, 2022, 09:10:01 PM
Benzema has been able to make a big contribution to Real Madrid. Madrid management's decision to add a contract for Benzema is very good and right, because the French striker can still be relied upon for the next season. Apart from that, Real Madrid have yet to find the right replacement. Rodrygo and Vinicius are not center forwards but wing stickers. So the Whites' management had to move quickly in the transfer market, a pure striker was required to maintain balance up front.
Rodrygo is a centre-forward but the conditions are still not there and he is also a runner type of player so it is not very suitable. but it would be better if he was honed more in the middle especially for the wings at the moment there are Asensio and also Valverde who actually could be placed in this position too especially with the condition of Benzema who is getting older it is clear that there must be improvement in that. Unless indeed Madrid still want to find another player for that position.

The problem lies in everyone's lifestyle and power in managing their finances.
Indeed, in this case, saving is quite good, but with the current economic conditions, to be honest, I prefer to invest rather than save.
On the other hand, lifestyle also determines this, because sometimes a person's hedonistic nature actually destroys themselves, so I really think that in terms of being wasteful or not, this depends on perspective, because sometimes many people do not realize that they spend their money on things that are not really important, but they do that because their self-control is very low.
Agree on this one which we do  really see different scenarios or conditions basing up on how someone do manage out their finances specially on having some savings or investment.Not all would really be having that kind

of self control when it comes to their money which there are several common factors which would really affecting out their saving behavior which you had mentioned about lifestyle.

If you are that someone who do have that type of lavish or something like that kind of lifestyle or standards then it is really that hard for you
to have those savings on having that 1/3 partition.
Most people nowadays look more at prestige so that when they buy something branded it can be a source of pride for them and this is what actually gets them into trouble.
It doesn't mean that buying something branded is wrong, but maybe we also have to adjust whether we can afford to do that or not because if later it seems forced I think it's better to look for alternatives regarding function rather than prestige.
