The big problem with De Rossi for Rome is one, and that problem is, if he has a bad start you dont have so much time to recover the phase and recover places, because Rome situation right now is also not so good, if you start to lose more terrain and get out of this cup, your season is gonna be a complete failure and maybe without also De Rossi at the end of the season and searching again for a new coach.
I believe this will happen, I mean what you can expect for one month with a new coach? it's not even enough to reshuffle the players, they will use a same lineup and probably using a different strategy. But a strategy need to be trained for many many times, so I don't expect any big change with De Rossi. I agree with you. I am also not expecting much from De Rossi this season. 40-year-old De Rossi is not an experienced coach. De Rossi has been with Roma for a long time. He probably played 19 consecutive years with Roma. He is aware of the overall situation of the Roma team. But he is inexperienced as a coach. I don't know why Roma management sacked an experienced coach like Mourinho. Mourinho is a very experienced coach. Roma's squad does not have enough experienced players so their performances have been poor and erratic. Coach Mourinho cannot be blamed for this. I don't think Roma's performance will improve with new coach De Rossi. I think we will see further deterioration of Roma's performance. Roma didn't get what it wanted from Mourinho in terms of consistent and good results. They are winning sometimes and losing easy games in many times which is pissing Roma owners and the fact that Mourinho always blame the others for the defeat made them more angry. I don't expect much from De Rossi, he needs to keep the form of the team and try to improve them steadily. This will take some time and luckily for him, his team will have easy games for a month against the last teams in the league before facing Inter Milan then Feyenoord in Europa League. |

Arteta should understand this very well that there is a hard and close race in the top side of the Premier League between teams like Liverpool, Manchester City, and them. This means if they want to remain in the race and not lose the chance to win the top place of the table they have to win this match against Crystal Palace and get the full three points from it, On the other hand, Arsenal couldn't have a good performance recently and seeing them losing points in this match totally normal.
Crystal Palace are out of their normal forms this season. They are 14th in the ranking and ended up losing their match against Everton so I wonder know if they could stand versus Arsenal.. Odds are way better for Gunners in this game since they are playing home and since Crystal Palace performance and latest results. |

I'm not too sure that De Rossi can improve As Roma's standings in the remainder of this season and bring As Roma to the top 6 of the standings until the end of the season. because usually firing a coach in the middle of the season won't change anything. De Rossi needs adaptation to build the As Roma squad.
It seems that quite a lot of people actually doubt this decision, doubting whether De Rossi can replace Mou's role at Roma or even make Roma much better. Moreover, Rome certainly hoped that this would happen in a short time. Currently, Roma is experiencing quite a down period, not only because of the lack of a coach, but also because of the condition of the squad. But in any case, even though there are doubts, these parties will certainly still hope that De Rossi is really able to provide an extraordinary surprise in Rome and bring Roma to a much stronger condition. And hopefully it won't be like Napoli who were in a hurry to change coaches but were still unable to make changes in Napoli itself. Everything takes time, but how much time is given must still be optimized. Roma lost its good performance since the departure of the old squad and barely no coach, how good he was, were able to put the team in the correct road again.. Mourinho results with the team were fluctuating and he was always blaming an outside problem for the issues of the team until the owners got pissed from him and were pretty sure that the team doesn't stand any chance to advance. |

Monaco didn't find yet a good rhythm nor a way to to score against Tanzania.. This is supposed to be one of the best countries in this competition.
Playing the first match of the group is not entirely easy for any team, including Monaco in finding the rhythm of the game, but now it has succeeded for Monaco to score against Tanzania by Romain Saiss in the 30th minute. The score is now 1-0 and the match is on 75 minutes But the Tanzania team had to play 10 players because one of their players got a second yellow card in the 70th minute. The African Cup has an interesting story to follow. I might champion Monaco to win Afcon this time. At the same time, the Asian Cup also took place in Qatar, also visited the topic of his discussion. Autocorrect too?  Morocco started the game without making a lot of pressure on their rivals that's why they weren't impressive in the beginning and until they scored the first goal then things started to change positively for them From what I noticed in this competition that major and favourite African teams are getting upsetting results in the first matchday apart from the hosting country Ivory Coast in addition to Mali, Senegal and Burkina Faso.
Nigeria, Egypt, Ghana, Cameroon, Algeria and Tunisia whether got a draw or an unexpected defeat against what supposed to be weaker results.

This tournament is getting more interesting, it is not business as usual for these Nations you have mentioned that have experienced a difficult start to the campaign. The weaker Nations are getting stronger but I expect things to change in the second leg. At the end of the day the weaker Nations will still now to pressure. I assume the second and third matchday will be more interesting with the favorite teams waking up from their sleep and the other teams starting to make silly and inattention mistakes. We will see  |

It is good to have a similar overview related to altcoins like we already have for Bitcoin.
I just have a suggestion to make the table as simple and easy to read as possible by :
- Removing "all litecoin...", "all USDT..."
- Adding another column containing the payment cryptocurrency between "term" and "legendary" for example. If not possible slots could be replaced and indicated separately for OFNP campaigns only
- Separate OFNP PNYC FLUX CFNP like in the main overview (Bitcoin) topic.

The OP has been a member of this forum since the beginning of 2014 and that's when he wrote his first post and it is quite possible that he has been investing in Bitcoin since then, but it seems that he missed the big bull runs during 2017 and 2021, or maybe he was convinced that the approval of this ETF would do wonders for the price of BTC.
I personally think that the OP is one of those whose attention is drawn to Bitcoin by some positive news, and maybe sometimes years go by without any insight into what is actually happening. We should not be surprised that Bitcoin is a completely secondary matter for some.
People here and there need to learn about patience. Investing in Bitcoin is like any investment, you have to wait until you get the return of investment then the gain will come eventually. Richest businessmen that started from scratch had to wait long time before getting rich. Same goes for Bitcoin, not a single event, like ETF approval or the halving, will drive the price to the moon... |

The best time to buy bitcoins is not tomorrow, but yesterday as I have read many times from the forum.
That was a very wise comment to learn for today Buy when it's low. Hold when it's high. Sell at the top.
bitcoins were as low as figures below 30k at some time, now it is trying to even reach 50k. I do not think bitcoins will ever be so low like lower than 30k before the halving will occur, so many investors have already missed the chance of investing yesterday. To potential new investors who are still unsure, start investing from today. Bitcoin got as low as $17-18k recently and at that time people were afraid to buy because they were afraid that the price will crash more and more and they will lose their investment. Ironically when the price goes up, same people get afraid from buying again but at this time because the price is high right now  I wonder know what's the best price to buy Bitcoin for them! For me, it is whenever possible. |

Another round of FA Cup is back tomorrow with eight matches that ended up with draw result in first match.
I really like Wolves to win against Brentford that is in poor form and odds are very good.
West Ham needs to win this time and Bristol City cant survive the second time against hammers.
Everton and Crystal Palace are not in great form but I think we can see surprise in this one.
My Bets: Wolves win; West Ham win; Crystal Palace double chance X2
I agree with you about Wolverhampton and West Ham United being favourite and will most likely win their games. Meanwhile, I see that you have chosen Crystal Palace over Everton even though odds are in favour of Everton. Crystal Palace aren't in their best shape and I find Everton better so I am backing until the extra time, after that it will be quite random and messy. For the other games, they are quite random, especially when see you attractive odds for Luton Town, Nottingham Forest and Norwich! |

The main reason I think is that they want to sound good as if they really do know what they are saying. Sometimes they want merit but receive none. One thing they may not have paid attention to is that it is one thing to write a long content and another for it to make sense to the reader. If you check around, you’ll see simple and straightforward forward posts which receives merit. It’s not about lengthy content, let there be some life in what you’re saying.
I don't understand people who wrote a long text to reply to a simple sentence like I don't understand why politicians talk a lot without saying (or doing) anything. It is normal to have a long text while you are quoting several people, talking about complex issue, explaining how Bitcoin works for example..etc Sometimes I wonder if they are using AI to generate the text and paraphrasing it to avoid being detected? Since that already happened before. Having minimal words requirement has nothing to do with long text since most signature campaigns ask generally to pass around hundred of words which is the equivalent of three or four lines.. Long text are annoying to read and gets more appreciation by the others regardless of how empty they were inside, that's why some people keep doing that intentionally. |

Honestly, Martial is a good striker. But unfortunately he couldn't gain the trust of ETH. He couldn't compete with Rashford or Hojlund.
You have got it all wrong Ofcourse martial is a good striker, he didn’t lose any trust at all, martial issue is that he is never available for selection due to different injuries and that’s why a move away from Manchester United is on the cards for him It has nothing to do with competition From what I understood and see, is that Martial wouldn't get more time to play under Eric Ten Hag management. He didn't count to move in this winter transfer window due to familial reasons. He didn't want to interrupt his children scholarship in the middle of the year so he sacrificed for them. I think it would be better for him to move back to France and join PSG or his old club Monaco in Ligue 1. I didn't have much rumours about other leagues but joining La Liga might be an option. There is just scarce information about that. |

Right now I doubt if Barcelona would win any trophy this season, they played poorly against a team that has been their rival for a long time and the score line was very embarrassing, right now Napoli is not in a good form i stoll see them winning Barcelona.
The Barcelona team needs a complete revival, the whole defense needs to be changed, they are playing like complete amateur and real Madrid exposed them yesterday.
I had always thought that Barcelona were in bad form but I never knew it would get this bad and it's alarming.
Barcelona looks like Atletico Madrid or Real Sociedad right now, good teams but they fail to win anything, except maybe going to UEFA Champions League. Even Girona are doing better than them.. At least Real Madrid are competing Girona for the title but Barcelona are out of their form and unable to fit both of them. Seven points difference aren't much and Barcelona could decrease it, they have to improve and resume winning again! |

I found PSG vs. RC Lens thrilling. No doubt, PSG won. Look at the big picture. Lens' missed penalty and red card were crucial. Barcola gave PSG the lead before Gradit was sent off. Lens had moments, especially counterattacks. PSG's ball possession and technique are undeniable. Lens' penalty might have made PSG more aggressive. PSG's winextends their good run, but Lens avoided relegation.
PSG started scoring before the red card and profited later when Lens players got reduced to 10. Like Lens odds were great while playing with 11 players Lens this season is weaker than the previous one for sure and getting a distance from the relegation zone was an achievement itself. Now it is Lyon turn to fight for its survival with the bad results they are getting.. Even Le Havre knocked them by three goals. This round was very bad for Lens but also Marseille, Monaco and Nice which allowed PSG to increase the gap between them to 8 points. PSG are pretty much secure for like 3 rounds. |

Leverkusen continues to show good consistency in every match they play and against Augsburg yesterday, Leverkusen played well even though they were only able to score 1 goal.
Bayern actually has a big chance to overtake Leverkusen, they have a fairly narrow goal difference and if Leverkusen loses just 1 then Bayern will immediately take the top position, Bayern currently really hopes Leverkusen slips, we'll see how Leverkusen will be in the future, will they able to be consistent or they will even lose to a small team.
Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich are flying alone especially after the defeat of Stuttgart against M'Gladbach. We are talking about 7 to 11 points difference between these teams. Leverkusen didn't lose any match and they have only 3 draws and the Augsburg game was about to be the fourth if they didn't score a late goal. That match was kind of warning for Bayer Leverkusen and I think it came at time since their next games are hard. They will face Leipzig, M'Gladbach and Bayern Munich in the next four matches and these games will tell if they could lift the title or not! |

Anyway, a point is better than none.
A point is better than nothing for sure but Nigeria was defeated in my eyes. I mean they were somehow pushing then a goal came from nowhere! A pure defensive mistake that shouldn't happen, the Equatorial Guinea player came behind the defence line and put the ball in the goalie while everyone was watching like that  Even Osimhen goal was very fast after the celebration of their opponent goal and took everyone by surprise. Imagine he didn't score that goal, Nigeria would lose the game? I hope they will recover from that.. At least we Nigerians aren't that disappointed with the way the Ghanaians are because they lost their match to Cape Verde(1-2) after many of us had predicted they were going to win. The loss came as a shock to me, even the one of Egypt that played a draw match(2-2) with Mozambique
Ghana defeat was a bigger surprise than Nigeria draw for sure, even Egypt draw against Mozambique was unexpected. I call what happened in the previous day as a big waste of points from known teams  |

Strong game by Valencia and after a long time they won three games in a row. I hope they will join at least Conference League next season. I miss watching them in European competitions. Javi Guerra came from the second team and adapted to the team well. Hugo Duro scored his eighth goal. These guys are young talents, Valencia can build a good team around them. The future looks bright.
Valencia are getting closer from that spot but If you take a closer look you will find out that these top teams all deserve to be in UEFA competitions.. Top four will most likely end in UEFA Champions League and at worst another in Conference League.. Real Sociedad and Betis, in addition to Atletico Madrid will end up in Europa or Conference League. These teams miss points from time to time but don't expect them to let Valencia took their hardworking places. In Supercoppa de Espana, Real Madrid didn't allow Barcelona taking the title and beat them badly by four goals to 1! Barcelona and Xavi need more efforts to make the players more concentrated and especially ready for such big games! Congratulations Real Madrid for this cup  |

draw a pretty good result for fiorentina for last night's match. because even though they played at home fiorentina were unable to show their best performance. in the match against Udinese, fiorentina always fell behind first. playing 2-2 was just lucky because in the final minutes of the match in the 87th minute got a penalty that could only equalize to 2-2.
Fiorentina were expected to win its game home against Udinese and they were lucky to get a draw thanks to the late penalty. Now they are 8 points behind of AC Milan which won against Roma with 3 goals. Bologna was the other team to lose points in this round among teams sitting in the first half of the table. Roma defeat could be explained by the fact that AC Milan were more powerful but the defeat of Bologna against a team that was sitting in the relegation zone isn't a good sign for them! |

Barcelona conceded two goals in just 10 minutes of the match.
An epic starting of the game by the Barcelona side. Vinicius Junior scored two goals since the first ten minutes and Barcelona didn't create yet a serious opportunity. I think both teams will score eventually but flipping the table in the head of Real Madrid will be hard to achieve. The winner of Spain Supercoppa seems to be determined from the beginning of the game Girona failed to take full advantage of their chance of going three points clear at the top of the Spanish La Liga standings today by sharing points with Almeria in a game many had thought that the the away team were gonna pick all three points.
Girona moved to the first spot with only one goal advantage from Real Madrid which lack one more game and since Real Madrid is doing well then we expect it to be the first alone with 2 points difference from Girona. Girona weren't threatening in this match and deserved this result. They have to improve next if they want to get the title |

Manchester united is poor in defense and this second half willnot be in their favor from the look of things. This is because Tottenham have decided to come with the determination of winning the match, because they have seen that Manchester united is very weak
Manchester United's fans were always let down. I don't know if the fans of Manchester United are upset for real or saying we got a point at least this time! I mean they were playing against Tottenham Hotspur and regarding their failure, this result is positive if we can say so! Manchester United this time scored and added another goal after Spurs got the draw. They were trying their best although the dominance of Tottenham Hotspur. Manchester United were few inches from scoring a goal by McTominay in the injury time but they failed unfortunately. This result didn't allow Spurs to move to top 4 and let ManU advance a little for now. |

This result also made Lille reclaim their place before being in 5th place in the standings and now they will try again to immediately displace Brest from the top 4 of the standings in the next match. For Lorient, they have to be more patient in waiting and it is very difficult for them to escape the relegation zone with poor performance.
Lille and Reims profited the most from the defeat of Nice and Monaco to reduce the gap between them and I assume PSG will profit also once they win against Lens to get a securing 8 points at least from the rest. Lorient defeat was expected since Lille is better and Lorient will not escape from the relegation zone for sure if they continue like that.. |
