What a horrible start for Onana, to think he was one of the best goalkeepers in Europe last year.
The hype is what has gotten you disappointed so far. Before he moved to Manchester United, there was plenty hype with the news, but what do the fans really want? for him not to concede even with Manchester Uniteds.poor defence? he is not super man. Onana is just a good keeper with extra passing ability which sometimes becomes a problem also for him, a little wrong decision making in his position which is always a critical one can put his team behind.
The opportunity for Onana to keep a clean sheet must be supported by a strong defensive performance because if their defense is weak enough then Onana will experience bad luck in every match. Like what happened in the Arsenal vs Manchester United match where in that match Manchester United's defense was quite bad because several of their defenders were injured which made their defense line not very strong. So that when there is an attack from an opponent they are overwhelmed to block it. I'm sure Onana will be able to make a contribution to keeping the goal from conceding in every match, but he found it difficult to do so in the early matches of this season due to their poor defense this season. I'm sure criticism of him will not be too suitable to be thrown early on because he needs time to do his best like he did with Inter Milan last season.

Roma and Empoli both started the season very badly. From 3 matches, Empoli even lost 3 times. And likewise with Roma who have not won a single win from 3 matches at the start of this season. Roma only got 1 point from a draw against Salernitana. Against Empoli, Roma should be able to win the match more easily. Well this is a home game for Roma. And I think it's time to save the dignity of a good coach like Mourinho. I think Roma will win with a close result like 1-0 or 2-1. If Roma don't get a win in this match then I think this will really be the worst season for Roma.

Also, in the next match, AS Roma seems to have been able to play Lukaku and thus, AS Roma should be able to get their first three points this season. After all, the fact is that Empoli also does not have a good record when playing against AS Roma and therefore, at this moment also Empoli still does not seem to have the ability to win. Moreover, if I consider the odds available at the moment, it is at least clear that AS Roma are very favored to win. So yes, I personally still believe that AS Roma will get a win in the match against Empoli in the next match in Serie A.
Against Empoli, it looks like Mourinho will use Lukaku as the starter in this match because Roma front line was very dull at the start of this season because the absence of Tammy Abraham had a negative impact on their performance in the early matches of this season. Lukaku had appeared with Roma when Roma faced AC Milan, but in that match Lukaku was not able to have a big influence in the match because he came on in the 70th minute and at the same time he needed a process to adapt to Roma game. So, in the match against Empoli, I think Roma chances of getting full points are quite big because they are playing in front of supporters and of course Lukaku will try his best to make a difference to Roma front line in this match. It is hoped that Lukaku and Dybala can bring victory to Roma in this match.

Health emergency is very important, but we are the ones being expected to always make provisions for anything of such, knowing that someone have a little or minor health challenge, we should try to make sure that we are always responsible for our health challenges and plan ahead before something ugly happens to us and we are left with no choice than facing the consequences, so we shouldn't expect casinos to do what we should engage doing, instead we are the ones responsible for our health and not the casinos to plan ahead for us.
Unexpected things often happen without us realizing it, but in this context I agree with your opinion that if we have a health problem then it is better for us not to visit a casino before we have completely recovered from the disease we are experiencing. Well, basically the casino owner only provides basic equipment just in case a visitor experiences something bad like a heart attack.

But behind that, everything that happens to casino visitors, such as dying in the casino or having a sudden heart attack, is of course not the casino owner's fault. And the casino owner cannot be sued because they only provide a fair game and get a license from the government so the victims will not win if they sue the casino owner.

I think a loan deal probably to another league division entirely would make Maguire recover his form. Better still is if he were to attract offers from the Saudi pro league. It would be good money, more playing time with less pressure to perform coming from a defender. I think he would make a great big brother to the younger team mates too.
The offer to go on loan to Westham would have been good but he would have faded from recognition because the club wants to keep goals not lose them to careless defending. if it is because of recognition he still remains at Manchester United, then he's got this season to do it well.
It seems that Harry Maguire will no longer be the main choice in Ten Hag's game scheme this season. Maguire made 16 appearances last season for Ten Hag in the Premier League, less than half of the total number of games played by Manchester United. Moreover, it seems that Maguire will no longer have Ten Hag's full trust, this has been proven by Manchester United's 4 matches so far.

Harry Maguire will have difficulty breaking into the main squad under Ten Hag because of his performance in defense. He often makes mistakes which of course really put Manchester United in trouble. Many players criticized him during the match, it was something very sad for a captain of a team as big as Manchester United.
Well, in my opinion, Harry Maguire is at the end of his glory days with Manchester United. Because Erik Ten Hag had put a lot of faith in Harry Maguire last season but he failed to use it to improve his best quality in defense. I believe that every rotation made by Erik will have a big impact on other players and that is what made Harry Maguire slowly start to be eliminated from the main Manchester United squad.

So, if some of Manchester United's core players recover from injury faster, Harry Maguire will find it difficult to get minutes to play this season. Harry Maguire often makes blunders which results in great vulnerability to the defeats experienced by Manchester United. Let's see how Maguire can survive every doubt that comes his way.

I want to ask those of you who have a hard addiction experience in gambling and then you can treat it yourself, and today still playing gambling but with the principle of good management and financial management in gambling.
I want to know how you break away from the addiction, you can mention the actions taken or what kind of steps? And how long do you need time to break away from the addiction that has been experienced?

"I want to find out because I think your experience in the case as I mentioned will be useful for readers, especially for me personally"
Of course it will take time and of course everyone can do it to escape gambling addiction. Maybe for me, what I do to get rid of the thought of continuing to gamble is to do other things, such as watching and keeping myself busy in various other activities so that our minds are diverted to other things and forget about gambling. Indeed, there must be support from those in our sphere of life because if our friends gamble then you won't be able to do this.

Apart from that, slowly you can find a new form of comfort from activities other than gambling and if you implement this successfully within a week, maybe you will be able to get rid of your addiction to gambling. Indeed, in gambling, the management level must be in our minds to adjust the level of expenditure in gambling.

I don't think European teams should be too worried about the amount of money that these Saudi clubs are willing to spend, it is not as if the European clubs are losing the best players to Saudi, most of the players moving there are either above 30 or their time in Europe was already up, players like Haaland, Mbappe, Rodri, Saka, Bellingham, etc, can never think about Saudi Arabia. Quality/high level football will remain in Europe and nothing is about to change that.

I hope you are right about this and we don't have to watch superstars like Mbappe, Haaland and more in Saudi Arabia at early ages. I was really worried about the possibility of Mbappe's accepting Al-Hilal's offer for example. They offered a one-year contract though but still I would like to watch him in Europe until quite old ages just as we watched Messi and Ronaldo like that.

However if UEFA decide to accept Saudi teams also into their organizations then things might get more interesting. Then I would wonder if these players also think about signing for Saudi teams and play in the Champions League while making a lot of money at the same time.
Surely it will be a bigger attraction if UEFA approves the proposal put forward by the top brass in the ranks of the Saudi Arabian football league for their participation in the Champions League. But so far we will see the results, whether their efforts will succeed in targeting 1 or 2 slots for SPL teams to take part in the Champions League in the coming season.

Yes, it's true what you said that a player can leave the European stage to join a Saudi Arabian league team because the players are after money compared to their career. However, Mbappe is not that type of player because he immediately rejected an offer from Al Hilal in this summer's transfer window because he still really wants to stay in Europe. The transfer saga is over and we will see the performance of the signings made by the team this season. I think many fans hope that new players in the team can show their best quality to be able to help the team achieve their targets this season.

Gambling mostly depends on luck that's why no one can say the exact probability of winning here. When it comes to betting there are casino sites that scam by showing the lure of big winnings. There are many gamblers who are too greedy and risk losing everything therefore, if you can control emotions the risk will be reduced control often leads to greater chances of winning. Until all the subtleties of a professional game are understood you have to manage a lot by yourself. If you regularly follow the target goal even after losses constantly improve your analytical skills identify the reasons for failure and compare the sequence of events and results success will surely come.
I'm not sure if there are any successful gamblers out there who are able to recognize their emotions without reacting in any way when they lose. But I can probably assume that the average gambler is bad at controlling his emotions including me.

I really don't want to lose a game regardless of whether it is a game based on luck or sports betting. Losing is annoying, of course that's not what I expected, especially since I've done a good analysis of the game I'm going to bet on. Emotions just appear, it is difficult to control it because most gamblers who lose can easily change their plans midway.
It is indeed difficult to control our emotions when we play gambling. Moreover, someone playing in slot games certainly has a lot of expectations that he wants to be targeted. Well if emotions are out of control then one can lose quickly in every round that goes on and one more thing don't chase a big multiplier if a few purchases of free spins don't turn a profit. Defeat is indeed very annoying and even that cannot be avoided, especially if the level of emotion that hit you at that time then you will lose every game you play.

Controlling emotions is something that is quite difficult for someone to do. Especially if he has started playing small bets and slowly increasing the bet, but the big multiplier hasn't approached him yet, so that will frustrate him and increase the bet every round he plays. Apart from that gambling is luck and emotion is the opposite.

Regarding the revision of Pogba contract and salary, of course, it must be done because after all, it is not feasible for Pogba to continue to get a large salary but the fact is that Pogba continues to experience long injuries. Therefore, with this plan it is right and also, there should be no rejection from Pogba. But regarding playing at Al Ittihad or playing in the Saudi Pro League, I think the rumors are still not fully a reality. Because after all, Pogba own condition continues to experience injuries, and I think it will also be an obstacle when medical checks later.
If a team wants Pogba from Juventus, then they must be prepared to pay the player's high salary without expecting the player to contribute throughout the season. Pogba is very injury prone, recurring injuries from which it will be very difficult to recover. His fitness is declining and Juventus have taken the right steps in handling his case.

If Al Ittihad wants to bring Pogba from Juventus, then they must be prepared with big consequences. But fortunately those are just rumors that are not yet completely true, but anything is still possible considering the Saudi Pro League teams do something that sometimes not makes sense.
This season's transfer market has closed, so Saudi Arabian clubs who have not succeeded in recruiting some of their target players in this summer's transfer window will try again in the winter transfer window. Talking about Pogba, he has often suffered from injuries that sunk his career last season. Even this season I'm not sure Pogba can show his best quality with Juventus. Even though he thinks that the injury he suffered has recovered, I doubt he is very susceptible to injury.

If Pogba is unable to help the team with his contribution at the start of this season, Juventus will certainly be ready to let Pogba go in the winter transfer window. I think Juventus is running out of patience with Pogba because his quality is decreasing due to frequent injuries. On the other hand, Pogba could choose to go to an easier league in the winter transfer window and the Saudi Arabian League could be his goal considering that the salary offered by the Saudi Arabian team is bigger, of course that will be a big consideration for him.

Since the defeat at the start of this season many have doubted whether Newcastle can perform like last season with very strong performances and have almost perfect performance in every game and getting stronger towards the end of last season and if we want to realize or this is just my bad thinking but let's see this season some of the clubs that entered the champions league group have had poor performances in the domestic league and one of them is Newcastle and Manchester City which lately have not been very attractive in every game and this has also happened to other clubs from other leagues.
I used to think that the club's rush at the start of this season was only because they prepared themselves to appear strong in the champions league so that for a while they weren't focused on the domestic league.

Yes it is true that jobs may be on the line but one has to remember how Newcastle have performed in the past when they surprisingly improved to a top 4 finish last season and secured a Champions League spot and I don't think Eddie Howe will fail to make a difference. on Newcastle's form and I believe the upcoming game Newcastle will face Brentford which is not a big challenge for Eddie Howe as this club is very easy to beat for him and one side Newcastle will come out as hosts gaining confidence increasing chances of securing a win.
Their performance this season could make one wonder if Eddie Howe was the one the lead them to the top four or if they hired Pep Guardiola to coach for them in some matches last season lol, because I don't understand the reason for the very poor performance so far, I expected them to start the season as one of the serious contenders and when they won their first match against Aston Villa I feel they're beginning to mark their place as one of the top EPL teams, but after then they've not leave up to expectations and have declined totally in form.
 Well if they fail to win the upcoming game then it okay to think that they're not ready to challenge in the major tournament or set their mark permanently as one of the top clubs in EPL, it would be bad for them to destroy the good record they had last season with a horrible performance this season,they need to improve fast cause they'll be representing the EPL in the Champions league this season and won't survive the group with this awful performance.
Newcastle United decline in performance at the start of this season surprised many people because they were still dominated by players who played last season. But it seemed as if their performance had decreased by more than 80% because they were only able to record 1 win in 4 matches. Just compare them to have spent a lot of money in the transfer window like recruiting Tonali from Ac milan which was a club record breaking transfer but the fact is they couldn't maintain their best form at the start of this season.

I doubt they will succeed in closing the season in the top 4 if their performance does not improve in the upcoming matches. Eddie Howe has to do something to bring victory again in the next match. Moreover, Newcastle United will be playing in the Champions League this season, so if they fail to form a strong squad, they could be eliminated early. Moreover, Newcastle United joined the hell group which was filled with big teams from other leagues and Eddie Howe had to think about it from now on.

The media is often trying to make news where there is nothing to say. Mohamed Salah has made it clear that he is not going to the Saudi league, at least not right now. And even though the transfer market has also closed as far as I know. But the media is still trying to make news about this. In this season he is not going to go there for sure. Maybe he will think about it after this season. Even then I believe he will be able to give Liverpool a lot of money if he decides to go to the Saudi League.
It is not too strange if the media always makes some nonsense news because it is their job to always want profit in every existing news but in this case we must be able to filter information.
Especially when the news about Salah at this time, I still see some news about rumours that he will leave even though there is confirmation that Salah will not leave at least this season from Liverpool and that should have been the answer but there are still a lot of news that fry this because they know that transfer rumours will always be sought after by football observers and fans who want clarity and actually make this chaotic (that's the goal) so that they get information again and again to increase profits for the media.
The Saudi Arabian League transfer market was officially closed and the steps taken by Al Ittihad to recruit Salah failed miserably because Salah preferred to stay with Liverpool. I admire the attitude that doesn't look at money because he prefers to make his career more perfect by playing in the best league in the world.

I myself don't want to see Salah leave Liverpool because if there is no Salah on the Liverpool front line then it's very boring watching the games they play. In addition, there were several recruitments completed by the Saudi Arabian team such as Luiz Felipe who was successfully recruited by Al Ittihad in the last hours of the transfer market. Besides that I also agree with your words where the media seek sensationalism to raise their topic to become trending by providing inaccurate information about the transfer market in order to be able to attract a lot of readers for their article.
1451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 07, 2023, 09:45:22 PM
If we refer to the Europa League competition, in the two meetings Altetico won both matches over Lazio. but in the Champions League meeting, we cannot confirm it. Well, if we refer to the matches in their respective domestic leagues, it seems that Atletico is much better than the team from Serie A. However, because the first leg match will be held at Lazio's headquarters, the bookies do not favor either of the two teams. referring to the depth of players each team has, IMO, Atletico is better than Lazio.
Well, considering that Atletico always performed poorly in the Champions League, especially last season, and especially in away games. This match will be difficult to predict. That means, Lazio also has a chance to overthrow Atletico at Sadio Olimpico, Lazio's headquarters.

By the way, this match still has a time lag. the two coaches from each team, will focus more on the domestic league competition first. especially Lazio, they will maximize their performance ahead of the match to host Altetico Madrid in the group phase match later. and for sure, we don't have the latest information from these two teams yet. Well, it would be better, let's just follow developments.

We have not seen too much from any of the teams in this season. So we cannot comment baisden the performance that they have shown in the 3/4 matches that they have played so far. But if I have to predict, I will say that Atletico Madrid should be a better team going into this match.  Atletico Madrid definitely had a pretty explosive match in this season.  So they should be far more confident compared to Lazio going into this match. The match is still quite a few days away. still 12 days to go before the match I believe. Let’s see what happens.
There is still time for them to prepare strong energy ahead of the Champions League match. For some, they only assess the quality of their performance in their respective leagues, where the performance of several teams is less stable in some of the matches they play in the domestic league. But I believe they can improve their quality to be better when playing in the Champions League.

You are right there are still 12 days left for all teams to be able to show their best performance in the Champions League competition this season. So, if we look at Group E, of course we see that Atletico Madrid has the strongest dominance in the overall depth of the team's strength. Therefore, it is believed that they will have a good opportunity to achieve maximum results in every match they play. Atletico Madrid will travel to the Stadio Olimpico to face Lazio in the first leg. I think it's an easy match for Atletico Madrid because they have several players who have competed in Serie A in the previous season so they are very ready to be able to steal full points in this match.
1452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: September 07, 2023, 09:32:10 PM
I had no doubts, Benzema Karim is a great player without a doubt but Real Madrid, which is a great team, can very well replace him with other young strikers that they have in their squad.
He could even take someone from the spring and have him play in the big league, its not a possibility to be discarded.
I have no doubt in Real Madrid ability this season even as the club faces some early challenges in this season,  what most of the speculators and football analysts failed to know is that just because a perceive big players in out of the team doesn't mean they team will not have a better replacement,  just as mentioned even though Benzema is out of the team because of injury there will be another replacement for him that will deliver for the club in coming matches.

Let's see how Real Madrid handles all of this,  and from the result of their upcoming matches, we will know what awaits the club going forward.
Regeneration has been carried out quite well by Real Madrid, where they have built a squad with a young average age and only a few senior players are still being retained by Real Madrid this season, such as Toni Kross and Luka Modric. The departure of the star players did not have a big impact on their performance at the start of this season due to the fact that Real Madrid was able to complete the first 4 matches by winning.

Real Madrid players are on average very high quality, both as substitutes and as their main players. So I don't doubt their abilities this season. It is hoped that Vinicius can recover as soon as possible and rejoin the Real Madrid squad to help them achieve victory in the upcoming match. Vinicius injury is reportedly not too serious, with news circulating that he will only been absent for 1 month and will return as soon as possible if he can recover more quickly. Bellingham and Rodrygo are still very impressive and Joselu can adapt quickly to fill the gap left by Vini. I think Ancelotti has a lot of star players in stock and he can give them lots of playing opportunities.
1453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: September 07, 2023, 09:16:14 PM
we should not think too far about where Haaland will go because this player will not leave Man City, even though Haaland has managed to find a team that suits him and a very reliable coach who is able to develop his talent even further so that he can achieve the UCL title this season. then at the same time get the treble winner title.

and regarding Mbappe, it is certain that Mbappe is much younger player who has the ambition to win the UCL title and titles in other competitions so it possible that Mbappe will still leave PSG in the following season to look for the right team that can lead him to achieve this. that he wants and I think Real Madrid. all of this is not only about money, but Mbappe really wants his name to be known as star player who has had a successful career getting a lot of titles while it was still easy so that too long at PSG without the guarantee of getting a title in another competition such as the UCL or the European league is just useless for him.
I really dont understand why PSG wants to keep Mbappe so badly. He didt even take out an extension with them, and remember how he turned down Madrid's offer? That made a point! Lets not even talk about how poorly PSG has been playing lately. Even with Messi and Neymar, they still couldnt win the UCL. I really believe that Mbappe should leave PSG if he wants to win more crowns. Yes, I have heard rumors that he might stay. He should know its better to move if he has a brain! That means its time for PSG to look for a new player. They could end up in deeper water next season without him.

If you look at PSG match in the first match of the season where they have difficulty winning if they are not strengthened by Mbappe. In the two previous matches PSG won, in which in the two matches PSG installed Mbappe as a starter. That's a strong reason why Nasser Al-Khelaifi really wants Mbappe to last longer with PSG because his contribution has quite an impact on PSG performance in every match.

Even this season, Mbappe has often been linked with Real Madrid, but that didn't happen because Mbappe still stayed with PSG until his contract ended. Nasser Al-Khelaifi will continue to try to persuade Mbappe to renew his contract this season. If that fails then Mbappe will leave on a free transfer next season. PSG has recorded two wins and two draws at the start of this season which has left them sitting in second place in the standings. I think Mbappe will continue to make many big contributions in the upcoming matches because he seems to want to make a sweet record before his contract ends with PSG.
1454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: September 06, 2023, 09:31:19 PM
As far as I know, PSG has always failed to win the Champions League even though they have been strengthened by many star players such as Neymar, Messi and Mbappe. This season they will definitely have difficulty considering that the team they will be opposing is really strong. Milan, Dortmund and Newcastle are strong teams, so of course Luis Enrique really has a super difficult job this season in the Champions League.

I can expect PSG to qualify for the round of 16 but I'm not sure they can qualify easily for another knockout stage like the quarter-finals or semi-finals. PSG have not been very good this season in terms of squad depth, but Enrique could perhaps do something different for them.
The presence of star players who are specialized by the club turns into intervention against the coach. Enrique can bring PSG to the path of success, if he is given flexibility in making decisions, whether to recruit players or rotate players according to his tactics. Without interference and pressure from club officials, success will be realized sooner or later.

Milan, Dortmund and Newcastle don't have players as good as PSG, it is predicted that PSG can progress to the last 16 smoothly even though Group F is very competitive.
I think you paint a quite surprising notion. Look at group F where you can't underestimate the other three teams because they have a big target in the Champions League this season. I think PSG will face a big challenge in this match, especially when they face the Bundesliga representative team. Group f is the most difficult for them to penetrate the next round.

Indeed the depth of the team is an advantage that is owned by PSG but know that there is always luck that can approach other teams in Group F this time. I think the chances of Dortmund and Newcastle United are still quite balanced and they will be ready to compete with PSG to advance to the round of 16.

I think there will be surprising results in the matches in this group. There is a high probability that PSG will leave the group, but I have a feeling PSG will not be able to leave the group. Even when Messi was in, they couldn't get the trophy and they can't show the game they want in the champions league on the field. I think it will be the same this year.

I made the same criticism last year, and I do it now. PSG is a team full of star players, but in big games they have problems in defense. I think it will be the same again this year.
Nothing came out, and maybe you should fix it by writing it (knocked out sooner than predicted. Generally there are no weak teams in the Champions League, where all teams will appear impressive in this important match.
 Home and away wins will be their goal every match.

Messi, Neymar are no longer at PSG, now the Era of Mabppe, Asensio and Dembele will be their spearheads under Luis Enrique coaching. I think betting on matches played by PSG will have a greater level of confusion. But I hope they can qualify for the round of 16 so that this season's competition will be more competitive.

After seeing West Ham's performance in the last 4 weeks I'm even more curious about West Ham's performance in the next match. West Ham has not suffered a single defeat so far. West Ham has only had 1 draw and it is amazing that this club has won 3 times. We know last season West Ham even struggled to avoid relegation. But I think everyone was as surprised as I was when West Ham beat Chelsea and Brighton.

But the real test for West Ham will come in the coming week. Well West Ham will face Man City the champions in the Premier League. If West Ham loses then I will think West Ham is still mediocre. But if West Ham can hold Man City to a draw then I think there is something different about this club this season. What do you think about the upcoming West Ham vs Man City match?

Yes indeed, West Ham have looked great so far and yes, West Ham only failed in the opening match because in the opening match West Ham failed to win, even though West Ham only played against Bournemouth. But yes, that draw result at least can be covered with West Ham's three consecutive wins at this moment. It's right, when West Ham managed to beat Chelsea and Brighton it was a result that surprised me too. Because after all, basically Chelsea and Brighton are also at least the favorite teams to win, but West Ham managed to beat them.

Also, about the next match against Manchester City, even though West Ham is playing at home, but of course it is still a tough task for West Ham to beat Manchester City. Therefore, I think if West Ham is only able to hold Manchester City to a draw, of course it will still be a good result for West Ham.
Currently West Ham performance is better than Chelsea or Newcastle United because West Ham was able to reach the best place at the start of this season after recording 3 consecutive wins. On the other hand, I believe that West Ham can maintain their positive pace with a more impressive level of play in the upcoming matches.

Maybe this season we will see the rise of a surprise team that can destroy the big competition in 4th place. But for that West Ham have to prove their best quality in the first half of the season, if they are able to do it well I think they will be able to provide strong competition and  closed the season in a better place this season.

As far as I know, PSG has always failed to win the Champions League even though they have been strengthened by many star players such as Neymar, Messi and Mbappe. This season they will definitely have difficulty considering that the team they will be opposing is really strong. Milan, Dortmund and Newcastle are strong teams, so of course Luis Enrique really has a super difficult job this season in the Champions League.

I can expect PSG to qualify for the round of 16 but I'm not sure they can qualify easily for another knockout stage like the quarter-finals or semi-finals. PSG have not been very good this season in terms of squad depth, but Enrique could perhaps do something different for them.
The presence of star players who are specialized by the club turns into intervention against the coach. Enrique can bring PSG to the path of success, if he is given flexibility in making decisions, whether to recruit players or rotate players according to his tactics. Without interference and pressure from club officials, success will be realized sooner or later.

Milan, Dortmund and Newcastle don't have players as good as PSG, it is predicted that PSG can progress to the last 16 smoothly even though Group F is very competitive.
I think you paint a quite surprising notion. Look at group F where you can't underestimate the other three teams because they have a big target in the Champions League this season. I think PSG will face a big challenge in this match, especially when they face the Bundesliga representative team. Group f is the most difficult for them to penetrate the next round.

Indeed the depth of the team is an advantage that is owned by PSG but know that there is always luck that can approach other teams in Group F this time. I think the chances of Dortmund and Newcastle United are still quite balanced and they will be ready to compete with PSG to advance to the round of 16.

My personal standard is whatever the law says in your country when it comes to becoming an adult and earning your own money, so if someone is 18 years old and that is considered to be an adult on the country where they live but they do not have a job and they are not earning any money then someone like that has no business gambling at all, as most likely they are using the money their parents gave them to gamble and that is not right no matter how much I think about it.
The age standard for gamblers in each country is different, but I believe there are many children in my country who have deceived the casino platform by claiming they are 18 and over when they are still 15-17 years. I came across several children who gambled, but I wasn't sure how they could gamble just by relying on the money their parents gave them.
It's true that sometimes we find underage children playing slots. It's easy to do this because online gambling platforms do not impose conditions that are quite strict in the first registration session, making it easier for minors to provide documents that are completely inaccurate when creating an account that they do. Because they only need to give tick one if they are 18 years old.

Maybe this should not be blamed on a gambling platform because minors are still under the supervision of their parents. So parents are the ones to blame for their negligence in educating their children. In today's modern era the growth rate of gambling is increasing in some countries, another thing is because they are heavily influenced by the many gambling sites they find on social media platforms.

It's not easy to accept loss for a gambler because he has to be able to lower his ego simultaneously, especially since his emotions are running high and he can't think rationally. He may have lost a lot of money but he doesn't realize it because he still wants to win so he keeps trying even though he has lost before. I don't know what was on his mind but he just wanted to gamble even though he realized it could make him lose more. And when he tried all the ways but nothing worked, he ended up with deep despair and frustration because he couldn't win the game he liked. By then, he may have become so badly addicted to gambling that it's hard to help unless he notices it himself.
It is important to take notice of our emotions and how they affect the decisions that we take, when people are emotional they take all kind of decisions which deep down they know are a mistake, but at the time they do not think about it as they are fixated on getting their way no matter what, however once they calm down they realize their mistakes and now instead of just moving on and accept them they want to correct them, which leads them through another round of losses.
It is very difficult to control emotions when we lose at gambling because if you have money in your wallet, of course you will continue to make deposits until you realize that it happened so fast. Don't occasionally chase your luck just to reverse your initial capital, of course that's the worst thing gamblers do because they can't accept defeat from the first deposit they make. It is at this stage that a big problem will come to them if they continue to make deposits to be able to reverse the situation they are experiencing. I also often feel like this, but at this stage I only made two deposits to try to win, but if the win is not achieved, I will choose to stop playing that day.

The European transfer window has closed. Like EPL, Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 there is no longer a transfer market. But the Saudi Arabian League still seems to be until September 20. This seems to make up the transfer gap. But I don't understand, can the European players still leave? If this can be of course, there is still a lot of hope for players who play in the 5 competitions above.

I'm pretty sure it was ending this weekned no?

About that it seems they sent a bid for Salah for 250m €
Saudi Pro League summer transfer window will close in September 7, 2023. That was officially announced by the federation. FIFA transfer calendar isn't accurate apparently since it mentioned the end of the month as the time to close everything.
For Salah, it will be a fair movement for him (salary) and Al-Ittihad (good player) but definitely a very bad thing for Liverpool since they will lose a main player and they cannot ask anymore someone else to join them. Klopp called this unfair and asked FIFA to align every competition with the european one Lips sealed
The Saudi Arabian league transfer window will close on September 7 and there is still time for some teams to tempt the players they are targeting. And there is still time to complete recruitment in the next 48 hours. Several top European players continue to receive big temptations from big Saudi Arabian league teams such as Mohamed Salah. Al Ittihad reportedly made a quite tempting offer to Liverpool for their interest in Salah.

I'm sure this is a pretty big money deal. If Liverpool don't see money as their main option, maybe they will reject this offer. But if they see money as their goal this will certainly be a big blow to their progress this season.

It's true that Mbappe is a very important player for PSG, and I think that if he went to Real this summer, PSG's attack would be very weak now, and when Mbappe are on the field, it seems that the team is playing better. Lyon started this season terribly, and by the way, Lance also surprised me very much, for the 4 rounds 1 point and 10 goals conceded.
Two big teams in the previous season experienced a rapid decline from their performance at the start of this season, one of which was Lyon and Lens. The defeat to Psg extended Lyon bad streak and what's more, they have been really bad in terms of their defense this season. For psg this was a big win which returned their position to the top of the standings and now psg is in second place. Mbappe is one of the players who has a big bond for supporting their performance this season.

Asensio managed to adapt well to PSG style of play because he started to feel comfortable partnering with Mbappe on the front lines. Luis Enrique is slowly showing his magical ability to bring PSG to victory in every game this season. Looking forward to their best quality when they play in the champions league later.
