Unlike the two managers you made mention of, this is not Erik Ten Hag's first season as a Manchester United manager. He even had a better season in his first season with Manchester United than he's currently  doing in his second season at the club. He shown that he lacks what it takes to succeed in Manchester United as a manager as he's been absolutely clueless of the best approach to improve the team's performance and bring them back to winning ways again.

I'm surprised that at this time of the season,  Erik Ten Hag is still  managing Manchester United because he doesn't deserve to be there if you ask me.  The club I think should go for another  world class manager who can significantly improve the performance 9f the team. There are lot of managers in Europe that can revive Manchester United's footballing strength but the best among the available ones at the moment I think is Zinedine Zidane who is currently without a job. His record in his two managerial reigns at Real Madrid suggests that he can perfectly return the club back to the league of Europe's elite teams if given the chance

This pattern of OP is nice and should be generally acceptable. Even if you have not used that system before, but with way OP narrated it, you should know that is very much workable and it has worked for him. For him to create this very topic to show us this strategy means he has been winning with the strategy. Following the strategy is not difficult, the difficult thing there is being able to maintain discipline when following the system. Most things are good and easy to say but following them up are always difficult.


Yes, I agree and under with you also. It is not just trying to beat the system rather the gambler implementing the above strategy is trying to be cautious and not lose excessively. The problem one should encounter is knowing very well when they are on a lossing streak. Sometimes it doesn't just work like win, win, win to know you are in a winning streak or lose, lose, lose to know that you are in a losing streak. It sometimes happens lose, win, lose, win, lose... Making it difficult to know if you are in a lossing or winning streak.

Asking the question if mentality unstable people should be allowed to gamble has different dimensions, do you mean if the government should make a law that prevents mentality unstable people from gambling or you mean that the gambling attendant should stop the mentality unstable man from gambling? In both cases it will not actually be easy especially if the mentality sick man really wants to gamble. I will try to explain the two scenarios below and see how we will examine the scenarios and make proper decisions on the topic posted.

Let's say the government enacts a law that prevents mentality sick people from gambling and yet the mentality sick person want to gamble. If they insist and gamble will the gambling attendant be arrested or the mentality sick person. If the casino attendant refuses to grant him access to gamble, he might decide to cause alot of trouble in the shop and its neighbourhood. And if the government arrest such a mentality sick person, how will they arraign him?

Just like Girona in Spain and Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, Nice have been absolutely  in great form this season  despite not having the best of players in the french league. The quality of players in the Nice team isn't as good as that of players in the Paris Saint Germain squad but they've still managed to efficient with their performance this season. They've proven that you don't have to break the bank and sign the best players in the world for you to be able to be able to have a good impact in the league. Though they might not win the league at the end of the season because of PSG's superior performance, but I think they will surely finish the season as one of the best teams in France this season

 It's because of the intimidating number of quality players in the PSG set up that makes them the best team in the french league and also makes it very easy for people to easily predict who wins the French Ligue 1 title at the end of the season I almost the last one decade. It'll take another club who will be extravagant in signing of quality players before they can stop PSG from winning the league or probably a miracle to stop them. However,  PSG's dominance has only  been in the French league as they're yet to win the UEFA champions league title despite the number of world class players at their disposal.  The management of the club doesn't spend all those money to just dominate the French league and the earlier they start to win the UCL,  the better for the club

Luciano Spalletti's performance and efficiency with Napoli last season was something they've never experienced from a manager since they last won the Italian Serie A title in 1990. But what really surprised me was the fact that he left the club after a very successful season with the club as he lifted the Scudetto for the first time in over 30 years for the club.
Luciano Spalletti's departure didn't sit down well with majority of the club's fans because of how he really improved the performance of the Napoli team. Rudi Garcia was appointed to replace Spalletti but his time at Napoli was a forgettable one as he failed to continue with the great impressive performance of his predecessor which resulted to his sacking by the club's management.

However,  after the sacking of Rudi Garcia,  the club hired an Italian manager in the person of Walter Mazzarri and he somehow improved the performance of the team but unfortunately for him he couldn't help Napoli avoid a humiliating defeat at Roma last weekend. Napoli I think can still improve and do better under current boss if they are determined to do so.

Xavi Alonso has been an incredible and outstanding manager for Barcelona since he took over the managerial position at the club and was able to help them win the Spanish La Liga title last season which has raised the expectations of fans of the Catalan club. But because of the financial crisis at the club that's limited their  strength of signing top European players coupled with the fact that a lot of the club's first team players sustained various kind of injuries since the start of the season,  the performance of the club has significantly declined.

With the current  situations at Barcelona,  I don't think they have all it takes to win any major trophy this season. It's one thing to be a good manager but absolutely another thing to have the needed  quality of players at your  disposal in other to deliver a good performance.  In my own opinion, I think finishing in the top four of the Spanish La Liga this season should be a good performance for a team that had as many injury issues like Barcelona did this season.  

One thing about newbie gamblers is that no matter how you advise them, they would still make the newbie mistakes. It also happens in trading. Every new commer will like to try out their hands in trading while neglecting all the advices given them. But once they try it themselves and make such mistakes, they will learn by experience and by then you will see them advising other newbies.

Unlike trading which requires some skills, gambling is seen as only requiring luck which is why many people join gambling randomly without knowing some certain rules. Speaking about somethings, funny enough, emotions is not something that is learnt to be controlled hurriedly. It is 70% inbuilt and whose the newcomers don't know how to control their emotions, failure is inevitable.

Bayer Leverkusen for a fact are currently four points above Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga  table but let's also not forget that Bayern Munich has played one game less than than the league leaders and if Bayern Munich wins the outstanding game,  they'll just be one point  behind  league leaders. Bayern  Munich is undoubtedly the strongest  club in the German league in terms of quality and I expect them to fight for the title till the last day of the season. 

Bayer Leverkusen I believe knows the quality and depth in the squad of the German champions and wouldn't  want to think that they've automatically won the the league when there's still a lot to play when the league returns from her annual break and it'll take Bayer Leverkusen to remain as consistent as they were in the first half of the league before they can finally end Bayern Munich's dominance.

The problem is not if one can work as a gambling professional and earn from it alone. Although there are people who do not care about the work they do in as much as it is legitimate and brings food to the table. But there are also people who values prestige and as such they ensure the kind of work they do is very much not only legal but also ethical.

Gambling in some countries is illegal and in some countries it is legal but not ethical. Who will be that friend who will be in the gathering of their fellow friends, why others are introducing themselves as programmers, lawyers, designers, they will introduce themselves as a professional gambler. That does not hold any prestige I mean.

I do understand the premise of your reasoning and you are very right about it. If they put only summary, there will be cases gamblers will argue that the summary didn't capture the area they they fell victim. It is right as they always give an option to proceed only if you have agreed. So, if you have agreed, you cannot say any more that you weren't informed.

Also, the terms of services is a legal write up which is supposed to be very formal and acceptable as an official and working document. As you have stated, the best thing to do is to always check the area which is very  vital to you and ready it with alot of scrutiny.

Without taking any away from current  Manchester United boss Erik Ten Hag, I think he doesn't  have the needed tactical experience to improve the performance of the team no matter the amount of quality players that are in his disposal because he's not been able to show signs of a manager who can work  with high profile players.

So if Manchester United management want to improve the performance of the team, they should  first of all relieve Ten Hag of his duties as the club manager and hire a  top European  that's experienced enough to work with big players manager before they can proceed to sign big players that'll help improve the general performance of the club.

Like I've said before  in the the beginning of the season,  Arsenal are I think are gonna be a stronger contender for the English Premier League title this seasthan they were last season they've been very consistent with their results and performances in the league and if they can maintain their current  performance,  winning the English Premier League I think  is a dream that's achievable for the North London club.
For them to be able to play a scored draw against a big club like Liverpool at Anfield yesterday  tells how determined they are to finish the season better than they managed last season.

They play against  Ham in their next league  game of the season and I expect them to pick all three points from that match and probably remain at the top of the league till the end of the current season. Arsenal might not have the strongest squad in the league in terms of quality of players but they surely  have enough quality of players that can help win the English Premier League title

You mentioned two important things which are;
Control of Emotions:
Someone is to gamble or trade should be able to control their emotions. You shouldn't be overly provoked to chase losses and winnings should be a bait to a woeful ending. Emotions is very strong and that is why it is said that gambling is not for everyone and also trading is not for everyone, but for people with strong emotions and people who can handle their loses and contend their winnings.
Control of Budget:
One might have very good amount of money to gamble but if they do not handle it well, it will vanish totally and someone who do not have such amount of money will even make good gambling with more than them. Control of budget and risk management is a necessary skill for gamblers.

Stefano Pioli has put in so many work since he took over the managerial role at AC Milan  and that's why he deserves to be given more time to improve the performance of the team. The performance and result of the team have been poor in recent weeks which has prompted a lot of the club's fans to agitate for sack Pioli but I think it's too soon for that as the Italian manager can still  make a difference by significantly improving the performance of the team.

If for any reason  AC Milan's management decides to sack the club manager now, it'll be very difficult  to get a top quality manager in the middle of the season. AC Milan started the season on a very good note before their decline in form that's left  them out of the top four of the league and if Stefano Pioli can go back to the drawing board again, I think he has the needed tactical experience to bring the team back to winning ways

Well, I have carefully read the submission of two of you above and both of your are saying the same thing but coming from different angles. Apart from gambling addiction, every other addictions have their negative effects and those negative effects are menaces to the society. Let's take drug addiction for instance, this who are addicted to drugs, can sell all their properties in order to satisfy their addiction. When such a person sells of his properties and by chance has a means to sell that of his neighbours, he will surely do it to quench his taste for drug at that particular time.

Relating this to gambling addiction, someone who do not have any stable source of income can become a criminal in order to have the money to gamble. So, this is the reason it appears that poor people are more addicted to gambling than rich people. But this is not the truth. Why the addiction of rich people is not easily noticeable is because they have the money to maintain their gambling habit why the poor man who is financially vulnerable has nothing to lay hands rather than to become a public ridicule.

After so many talks in the build up to the Istanbul derby  between the two most consistent teams in the Turkish Super Lig,  the result and performance of both teams in the game I can say were absolutely  poor.  A lot was said before the game which attracted the attention of many fans who wanted  to see a very  good game that'll produce goals, exciting and nervous moments but were disappointed to see a goalless  draw in that match.
With that result, fenerbahçe and Galatasaray still occupy the first and second spots respectively in the Turkish league table with the same number of points but are just separated by goal difference. The fight for who wins the league  still continues and hopefully it's gonna go down to the wire.

Yes, I am aligning too well with your submission about the matter in discuss. OP asking which type of gambling people are addicted to more is just like asking which brand of alcoholic drink that intoxicate people the more. Approaching the question is this premix, you will understand and believe with me that different types of drinks are popular in different countries or environments. What I mean is that the particular brand that intoxicates Indians will not necessarily be the one that will intoxicate Canadians.

Relating this to gambling, the people in my country are also addicted more to sports betting, this might just be that it is the type of gambling that is widely known in the country. In some other countries, it is another type of gambling. But the best thing to do is to avoid being addicted to gambling. I read the news of someone who committed suicide because of money lost in gambling.

The op asked this question because he did not understand the power of ownership. Once you recognise the owner of something, it therefore means that the owner has the right to do whatever things he wishes to do with his possession. Asking if the owner of a casino can as well gamble in his casino. Whether or not it is ethical is just like asking if the owner of a grocery store has the right to purchase goods in his own store. The question doesn't correlate very well of course.

Where the importance should be placed is if the owner actually uses money to play or he gambles for free as the owner which we know too well will be very detrimental to the business.

Personally, I think Galatasaray were unlucky to be drawn in the most difficult group in this seasons UEFA champions league competition. The group F was the most difficult group of this season's UEFA champions league and was regarded as the group of death become of the quality of teams contained in the group.  Galatasaray failed to reach the knockout stages for a fact but unlike their English counterpart Manchester United who finished bottom of the group F and eliminated from the competition,  they managed to finish third and progressed to the knockout stages of the UEFA Europa League.
Fenerbahçe finished as the league leaders of the group B in the UEFA Europa League and will be playing in the round of 16 of the competition so I don't think they've had a bad campaign in the Europa League so far. Hopefully,  their game tonight is gonna  produce entertaining performance for fans 9f both clubs

Like I've said before now, I think Erik Ten Hag is the luckiest employee in the world at the moment because I can't remember  the last time a big club like Manchester United had this kind of bad campaign and still refuse to sack their manager. His tactical approaches to important games this season has been very poor especially his choice of substitutions which in many occasions has caused the club defeats in games they were initially leading. I think its high time the club management gets rid of Erik Ten Hag and go get a manager that's more experienced than the Dutch man.

Former Real Madrid manager  Zinedine Zidane  is currently without a club and if Manchester United can convince him to sign for them, I don't think it'll be a bad idea  for the Old Trafford club
