Liverpool consistently performs well in all leagues, so I have no doubt that they will defeat LASK. LASK is a small team, so they are not strong enough to defeat Liverpool, which defeated LASK 4-0. The only issue I have with Liverpool is that occasionally they make mistakes and let teams beat them that aren't capable of beating them. If Liverpool can win this Europa League, I think they can do it.

Regarding Bayer Leverkusen, they are a very good team that is unbeatable in every league they play in. Coach Xabi Alonso has helped the team succeed this season, and with his help, they will qualify for the champion league the following season. However, I have heard rumours that Alonso is leaving for Real Madrid, which would affect Bayer Leverkusen's performance as I don't think they will be able to defeat many teams as they did previously.
In this season we have good improvement in Liverpool performance which is surely going to help them for staying at the top in both leagues even they are having some problems, but Jürgen Klopp know how to handle things in quick for the improvement in performance their last few games were completely different which are giving impression they are strong contenders for the titles against big clubs with most chances they could be brought few players in January as well which will improve their performance for the title.
After Liverpool were comfortably beaten by Toulouse in their fourth game in the UEFA Europa League competition, they needed a convincing win against LASK to still be considered as one if the favorite teams that can potentially win the trophy this season and they did exactly what was needed of them by thrashing the Austrian club by four goals to nil. Jurgen Klopp's side had a bad season last season needs to make up for their bad outing last season by winning as many trophies as possible this campaign and which the Europa League trophy is one of the important trophies that the fans of the club would be very happy if the club eventually win it.

Bayer Leverkusen is also amazing in this season without losing any game they are leading their group and Bundesliga as well which is making things more interesting and if they are able to keep moment at this level then surely we can expect good results from them in coming weeks and this could be threat for the many others those are looking for the competed with them in coming matches Xabi Alonso is surely one of the best new generation coach which have bright future in top European clubs.
The rate at which Bayer Leverkusen has improved since the start of the season is absolutely surprising but what's even more surprising is how they've been able to maintain good results both in the German Bundesliga as well as in the UEFA Europa League competition. Winning and keeping a clean sheet away at swedish club BK Haecken further tells how good of a side they've been all season. Xabi Alonso without doubt will make a good manager in any big European club at the moment and I hope Real Madrid president Fiorentino Perez is keeping a close eye on him to replace Carlo Ancelotti when the Italian manager leaves the Santiago Bernabeu next summer.

The League 1 trophy has become PSG's daily food from season to season, no one has surpassed PSG in terms of domination of winning the League 1 title as much as this team. The owner of PSG is not satisfied if they haven't tasted the Champions League trophy and for me it's also not complete if PSG hasn't won the award. The biggest in Europe, indeed winning the Champions League trophy is not as easy as winning the trophy in the domestic league because the Champions League is full of big clubs who have greater strength than PSG.
I'm also surprisingly even though PSG already has enough experience playing in the Champions League and has played there many times, but for some reason this team always experiences bad luck in the semi-final and doesn't manage to win the trophy even though in the previous seasons PSG had quality star players.
So far, no other team in League 1 has been able to match PSG's strength because financially the PSG team is above the average of other teams, so it's only natural that they really dominate.
Since the current owners of Paris Saint Germaine took the ownership of the ownership of the club in 2011 they've spent more money to sign footballers more than any other club in the French Ligue 1. The president of QSI(the sports group that owns the club) Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is one man that believes that the more money they invests in the club, the better chances of improving the quality of the club and that's why they've won the French Ligue 1 title in 9 of the past 11 seasons but unfortunately, they've not been able to replicate same victories in the UEFA Champions League competition. Considering the quality of players in the current squad, I don't even think their dominance in the league is gonna end anytime soon.

At the start of this season there seemed to be a little competition because the PSG team was inconsistent and after many changes their performance dropped a little so that the Nice and Monaco teams could compete on points, but not now because now the PSG team is performing much better, they just need to Just maintain consistency and I think this season is still the same as the previous season, there is no significant competition to prevent PSG from retaining the title.
Paris Saint Germaine started the season on a bad note as they dropped points in games they were expected to win and that I think was caused by the current managers little experience about the French league and that's why since he understood the league better and the best approach that'll give them the needed results, PSG has been on the rampage and thrashing almost every team they meet in the league and I have no doubt that they're gonna pick maximum three points in their next league game as well.

But this week what really interested me was the Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid match. I think it will be quite difficult to predict this match. But this match will definitely be the most exciting match this week. So I don't want to miss this one.
The Barcelona vs Atletico match always provides excitement for the audience, both teams will always play with high confidence which results in high tension and tension. Barcelona who have just confirmed their qualification for the last 16 of the UCL, must repeat the same game as when they beat Porto. Losing points in the previous match made Barcelona drop to fourth place in the standings, Xavi had to direct his men to get three points at Camp Nou.
Over the past two dacades, Barcelona Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are the three club's that's dominated the Spanish La Liga and that's why whenever any of the above mentioned three teams are playing against each other, there's a always a strong tension in the Spanish football space and this weekend's league game between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid isn't an exception. The two teams so far have this same number of 31 points and are four points behind Real Madrid and Girona who occupy the first and second spots respectively but Atletico Madrid occupy the third position in the league standings because of their better goal difference.


Atletico is not an easy team to beat, Barcelona must fight hard by utilizing quality players for victory. Xavi must use Felix from the first minute, he can be the difference in the attack line area. Raphinha is also in fit condition, the combination of Felix and Raphinha can increase Barcelona attack power. Of course this match will be very exciting, especially since Atletico often play rough when their position is under pressure.

Atletico Madrid without doubt is a very strong team in the Spanish league but the fact that they'll be traveling to the Camp Nou I think gives Barcelona who are very capable to beat any club in the league on their day a better chance of maximum three points from that game. That being said, Barcelona's home advantage doesn't guarantee them a win as Diego Simeone's side have all the needed quality of players to steal a win from the Camp Nou

The competition between the team in group A will be more interesting now especially after Manchester United only able to playing draw from Galatasaray because Galatasaray had just open their chances to qualified and their last match on group phase only against Copenhagen which is more easy than Manchester United and indeed mathematically if Galatarasay win from Copenhagen they will be automatically to qualified but i personally won't be underestimate Copenhagen because during group phase this team has been showing unpredictable performance and sometimes Copenhagen has performing well and the latest is Copenhagen was able to gets the winning result from Manchester United and draw from Bayern Munich and currently Copenhagen position was runner up below to Bayern Munich and Copenhagen too had equal chances because if they can able to win from Galatasaray then Copenhagen is the team who qualified to round of 16 with Bayern Munich
Of course these three teams, Copenhagen Manchester United, Galatasaray will appear determined in the match, this is the match that will determine the next round. This group is the same as Group F, the three clubs still have the potential to qualify, if Dortmund wins against PSG, the other determinant is Newcastle or AC Milan, whoever wins this match will be the runner-up in the standings. I hope that Copenhagen will continue to maintain the stamina of its players, because they have a very busy schedule. Copenhagen will play the quarter-final matches in the Danish league on December 7 and December 10. Of course, Galatasaray is at an advantage in this case because they don't have a busy schedule and the fitness of each player will be the key in the match.




The group A became more interesting after last night's final results of the fixtures in the group. Galatasaray came from two goals down to draw against Manchester United while Copenhagen forced Bayern Munich to a goalless draw in a game that many had predicted that the host were gonna thrash the Danish club.

With yesterday's results, any of Manchester United, Galatasaray and Lens still stand a good chance of reaching the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League competition. In as much as very few people would've predicted it at the start of the season, Copenhagen are just one home win away from reaching round if 16 of the competition

Last season Arsenal competed with Manchester City but Arsenal could not keep the chance of winning the title till the last match. The Premier League title was assured for Manchester City long before the end of the season. Manchester City's tough rivals were Arsenal, even though they couldn't compete until the end. Manchester City's rivals in the Premier League this season are Arsenal and Arsenal seem more confident this season than last season. Compared to last season, Arsenal's performance this season we are seeing some improvement. Even if their performances improve, if they get injured again, it will not be good for them as they will not be able to compete as much with the players they have in the reserves. So Arsenal players must try to play with maximum caution.
Even last season Arsenal led the standings with a significant difference in points from Manchester City, but in the end they were unable to maintain consistency and Manchester City took over the standings to become champions. Arteta needs to do some players' rotation if they do not face a strong club because the injury of some players can affect the results of the match, so that this impact will be a source of problems with their consistency in competing with Manchester City.

In contrast to Manchester City because although there are some injured players they have a balanced squad depth so it is not so influential. Last season became a picture of how Arsenal were unable to survive into the last 10 matches in the league so Manchester City shifted their position in the standings and came out as champions.
Last season, Arsenal had a better duration at the top spot of the English Premier League table more than any other club did in the league last  season but that didn't stop Manchester City from becoming the eventual winners of the league title. City are currently the dominant team in the English Premier League as they've won the title in the past three seasons.

That being said, I think Arsenal will give City and Liverpool a tougher challenge than they did last season because at the moment, Mikel Arteta's men are flying high and I don't think there's any sign that they're gonna stop performing well anytime soon. This season's English Premier League title I think will be won by any of the current top three teams in the league standings

 And it seems that this will happen with Sevilla's defeat of PSV with a score of 2-3. even though they had taken an early lead with a score of 2-0, PSV was able to reverse the situation despite one Sevilla player being given a red card. In fact, in their 5 matches in the Chanpions League group phase, not a single Sevilla was able to win their match. On matchday six, Sevilla will visit Lens headquarters. It seems that Sevilla's chances of being able to compete in this league are gone. So, there is no need to look at history that Sevilla is the king of the Europa League, but the matches they played in 5 matches were a mess without winning.

 And even if Sevilla qualify for this competition, no one can claim they will be as successful as last season. Moreover, there are competitors who are quite strong and better based on their performance in all events. if, Sevilla came in and met Leverkusen, statistically and on paper, Leverkusen would easily beat them, IMO. I don't mean to underestimate this squad, but let's be realistic, their performance is indeed bad.

As for United, it would be a shame if their match ended in a draw. there is still a chance, but it is very slim. As for Milan, my gut feeling says that Necastle has a chance of getting a ticket to the playoff round of the Europa League competition.
Well, let's just follow what is presented in the Champions League and the Europa League.
PSV turned the tables in the second half and that’s quite a bitter pill for Sevilla and it’s fans to swallow especially holding their lead till about 30 mins to final whistle. PSV went from 2 goals down to defeat 10-man Sevilla 3-2 and secured their place in the Round of 16, finally dashing the hope of Sevilla who are Europa Kings to the mud. Now Sevilla will have to defeat Lens to be able to get through to the Round of 16 and that’s going to be quite difficult because Lens as well need at least a point to go through to the Europa League

 Sevilla has had a very bad performance and might probably have a shadow of themselves if they qualify to the Europa League because in that side of Europe’s top stage we can see some best teams there. Manchester United a team that can’t hold on to a 2 goal lead can’t even win up to 2 matches might have crazy problems qualifying. Milan might not be able to get out of the group, because Newcastle are really showing massive strength and determination, well one thing we love in Europe is that the fun is still on till the last days, but I think with the way things are going I feel Milan are going to find it very tough against Newcastle.
Sevilla were very disappointing with their results of yesterday's game against their Russian visitors PSV. In a game that they were leading  by two goals to nil in the 47th minute of the game. That defeat has ended Sevilla,'s hopes of reaching the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League and has further reduced their chances of reaching the qualifying for the round of 32 of the UEFA Europa League competition because at the moment, Sevilla now gas to beat Lens when the visit the French side for their last match in the group stage, a result I think is very unlikely to happen.

Guirassy continues to be the most important player of Stuttgart this season. Despite having an injury period he is still pretty much the same. He scored a goal anyway even in the games he was able to play for less than 30 minutes. I didn't like his performance against Frankfurt in the last game though. But it isn't that important. In the end he is human.

Stuttgart still won that Frankfurt game by the way. This was good for them because they need to be able to stay strong in the games without Guirassy's big contribution. Next time they are hosting Werder Bremen and I see another win on the horizon.  Smiley
Serhou Guirassy has been one of the most prolific strikers in Europe since the start of the season and I don't think there's anyone who'll want to dispute that fact. After he got injured few weeks ago, you don't expect him to come back and immediately start scoring goals like he was doing before his injury but he still came back and immediately contributed to his team's victory. Stuttgart is regarded as one if the best teams in Germany today because of the the presence of the in-form striker and hopefully, he's gonna help the club finish the season on a very good note. That being said, I don't think Serhou Guirassy will remain at the club after this season because a lot of bigger European clubs are eyeing him and would definitely want to sign him next summer.

I blamed Erik Ten Hag at some points for this but I looked deep in myself for guidance and asked, " What will Sir Alex Ferguson do in this situation? " Then I decided to shut the fuck up and let whatever will be happen.  Lad should take the first step towards saying how sorry he's taken whatever happening internal external.
There are also few names that have played a role towards seeing that the manager and the player come to full agreement and work together but Jadon Sancho has kept a stiff neck towards this! Its obvious he choose to leave over working with Manchester United and Erik Ten Hag.
Letting Jadon Sancho follow his football path outside Man United is one  way for  him to learn discipline. Because in a club  that manages  players to become famous and it doesn't depend on a coach. Here Jadon Sancho couldn't do that with Ten Hag. Everyone has their own points of error but both Jadon Sancho and Ten Hag must realize that there are more important things to fight for beyond  their own selfishness. Man United is the main priority  and Jadon Sancho position is no more so.  So Ten Hag and Jadon Sancho  will never find common ground.
In my own opinion, I think Erik Ten Hag also has his own share of blames for his negative relationships with some of the club's first team players. Last season, we saw Cristiano Ronaldo leave the club at the middle of of the season because of constant feud with the manager and this season again, Jadon Sancho will also be leaving the club in the January transfer window after refusing to apologise to the manager for having a rift during one of the club's training sessions.

Erik Ten Hag I think is one manager that has too much pride and always wants to stamp his authority over his players and that attitude doesn't sit well with a lot of big name footballers. I'm not saying he shouldn't be respected as the club's manager by the players but he should learn how to regulate his relationship with his players if he truly wants to succeed at the club.

I will not be disappointed with PSG performance because even though it ended in draw, it is much better than losing without getting points, but I regret seeing Lens performance, which was beaten big team from EPL with big score.
In fact, PSG's results in the Champions League were quite disappointing because it was a home match and they should have been able to ensure they would qualify from the group phase if they could win against Newcastle because Dortmund won against AC Milan so the sixth match no longer had an impact.
Meanwhile, Lens' loss to Arsenal was as predicted, but this crushing defeat will certainly really affect the mentality of their players.

PSG have had to forget about the not-so-good results to focus on the match against Le Havre to maintain their secure position as leaders of the standings. In this match, PSG is far superior to the home team, although they should not be careless because even a draw will probably bring them down in the rankings because their competitors are ready to take advantage of the poor results they are experiencing.
Anyone who watched Paris Saint Germaine match against Newcastle on Tuesday night will surely agree with the fact the English Premier League club was a better team in the 90 minutes. Newcastle was denied a win after Kylian Mbappe scored a stoppage time penalty to help draw his club to level with Newcastle. PSG has been very impressive in the French Ligue 1 but they've not been replicating same form in the European Cup. Borussia Dortmund who I thought were gonna struggle in the group F has turned out to be the first team in the group to reach the knockout stages of the competition.

Another French Ligue 1 club, Lens were humiliated yesterday in a game I thought they were gonna give their hosts Arsenal a difficult game but unfortunately for Lens, the game was already won after the first 45 minutes of the game with Arsenal leading by 5 goals to nil. I don't think it's going to be good season for French teams in the UEFA Champions League competition

The thing about Cristiano Ronaldo is he scored more goals after got older, maybe that's just because of the teams he played for them but I think Cristiano Ronaldo is much better than everything good expected to see from him in the Saudi Arabia. AL Nassr. got many benefits after buying this superstar and he was the reason for many players they joined this league after him.

Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be one of those players whose performance is not significantly affected by age as the Portuguese superstar is still scoring a lot of goals even when he's above 38 years of age. Many of the the players that started football with Ronaldo including the likes of Wayne Rooney who's younger than Ronaldo has already retired from professional football but the Portugal national team captain is still performing like a player in his 20s and that I think is a huge reason to commend  him for what he's been doing since he joined the Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr.

Cristiano Ronaldo is one player who wants to win every every possible trophy and the fact that he's never won the Saudi League is the reason why he's giving his all to help his team lift the Saudi league title this season. They have a game tomorrow against Al Hilal and a win for Al Nassr I think will further strengthen their hopes of winning the league title at the end of the season.

Newcastle is experiencing a decline because they have a busy schedule this season compared to last season Newcastle is only struggling in the premier league, and maybe Newcastle players lose half their strength this season, maybe when the winter transfer window open Newcastle will recruited some quality players to strengthen their teams performanced, especially in the fronts line and back line and I thinks Newcastle still has enough money to recruited expensive player in January.

Even though Newcastle already has an attack line Wilson and Isak that can be relied on, Newcastle still need a better attack line because Wilson and Isak cannot be said to be completely perfect. If these two players are injury, wouldn't it be a disaster for Newcastle? At least Newcastle has another option because this season there is still a long way to go and Newcastle is still fighting hard to be in the best position.
But in the last two matches Newcastle United have been on fire, they won big against Chelsea and managed to hold PSG to a draw away from home in my opinion this is a good thing for the team and with a crippling injury list and an overwhelmed squad. But They play beautiful, simple football that is a joy to watch.

Indeed, Newcastle's problem this season is because many players are injured and this, coupled with the Tonali case, has had a big impact on Newcastle's game as a whole. Newcastle can chase the top four positions this season on condition that they have to bring in several talented players in the next transfer window. Because entering the middle of the EPL league season will definitely be more competitive and will drain a lot of energy.
Considering Newcastle's last two results and performances, I don't think there's any reason for anyone to think that the team is currently on the decline. Last weekend, they convincingly defeated a Chelsea side that's not lost to any of the big teams in the league like Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City since the start of the season and were few minutes away from beating Paris Saint Germaine in their UEFA Champions League game away at the French capital before they were denied by a Kylian Mbappe's controversial penalty.

Newcastle's performance this season has been majorly affected by injuries to the first team players but regardless of all the set backs, they're still in good shape to finish the season on a good note.
1772  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 30, 2023, 11:20:50 AM
Yes, Juventus really benefits from only having a schedule for domestic competitions. The player's fitness level is greater when compared to other teams competing in Europe. Massimo Allegri certainly has to maximize his squad to continue to maintain its position at the top so that the target of winning the Scudetto is also more open. I believe the Old Lady's chances are greater if you look at their schedule, other competitors like Inter might find a busy period where they will lose control in Serie A.
If you look at the match schedule between Juventus and Inter Milan, Juventus has the advantage of having a smaller schedule compared to Inter Milan who have to share their concentration in the Champions League and Serie A. But make no mistake, Inter Milan can handle a busy schedule and for them this is not a problem. problem because coach Simone Inzaghi has many ways to avoid problems with player injuries and player fitness by carrying out various kinds of rotations.

For Juventus itself, so far its development has progressed, but it could be said that it is not yet completely stable, its goal productivity has not specifically increased. Even though we know they have focused on Serie A from the start, they should be able to do more than that.
Juventus absence in European football this season is without doubt an added advantage for them to overtake Inter Milan in the Italian Serie A standings but at the moment, it doesn't look like Inter Milan's involvement in the European scene is gonna stop them from having a great domestic season.

Judging by their general performance this season abd their current form, Simone Inzaghi's men have proven that they have all it takes takes to repeat the club's achievement during the 2009/10 season where they won a treble. Juventus who hasn't won the league in any of the last three seasons initially winning it for nine consecutive seasons are strong contenders to win the scudetto again but they'll have to stop outperform Inter Milan to do that. A difficult task I think
1773  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: November 30, 2023, 11:08:45 AM
Sevilla are nearly officially out of the Champions League and Europa League both. Because their last game is an away one against Lens which won't be easy for them at all. They have to win that game to continue in the Europa League at least. I think Sevilla won't be able to achieve this either because they couldn't even beat Lens home before.
Sevilla's hopes of reaching the knockout stages of the this season's UEFA Champions League competition was brought to an end after they were were beaten at home by PSV last night in a game they had earlier gone 2:0 up. So their only chance of further European football this season is reaching the last 32 of the UEFA Europa League competition but they'll have to win third placed Lens in their last game of the group stage to achieve that which I think will be very difficult for the Spanish club. Lens already knows that they need to either win or draw against Sevilla to book their place in the Europa League knockout stages and since they'll be playing at home, Lens will certainly play to their full strength to make sure they achieve their aim

After the Champions League games are completed Sevilla can at least concentrate on their La Liga games not to relegate from the league. Because from this point they seem to be in big trouble. Like I said before they shouldn't have sacked Mendilibar that easy after winning the Europa League title with him.  Sad
Sevilla I think will be eliminated from playing in any European game again after their last group stage game at Lens so I think the club manager should rather focus on his teams performance in the Spanish La Liga in other to finish in a good position because considering their current form and performance I doubt of Sevilla will finish the season in the top  seven of the Spanish La Liga table.

Gambling is not only designed for the poor else it would be a legitimate source of income that is to considering the poor taking leads in the gambling tables maybe as its potentials.
But gambling is purely a game of making profits that is generally not reliable and not considering ones financial status of an individual level of influences.

It is true that majority of the Poor gambles more than. The rich simply because they are desperate to make money and not just about the winning and their eagerness to make this money has got them staying longer on gambling with the motion of inability to controlling their emotions and also the lack of making a gambling portfolio budgets.
Most irresponsible and addicted gamblers are comes from the poor persons simply because gambling seems to be flexible and has them a percentage to make riches but things doesn't usually goes as expected yet they seizes not to give up.
The riches also gambles but they are likely not noticable because they are mostly on gambling portfolio budgets where as they don't exceed their limits while gambling and they could take control of their motional emotions while they gambles.

Your friend seems biased or should I say it is an act of empathy he has for the poor that got him feels that only the poor gambles?
He also failed to reference you to some prominent rich dudes whom are gamblers whether winning the stakes or not, gambling is gambling that is it.
Even at most times, gamblers are liable to bet more because they are believed that they have enough to loose.

I totally agree with your opinion about the subject matter. One fact I've come to agree with is that gambling is meant for wealthy men even when we it's absolutely open for everyone regardless of their financial status to engage in it. It took me some many years and experience for me to realize that but many people are yet to come to terms with that fact because they are yet to see things from my own point of view.

A lot of people thinks that when they don't have money, gambling should be a source of making money and that's absolutely wrong in my own opinion because 85% of all the people who I know started gambling to elevate from their poor financial status failed and some even had to sell all their belongings in the process. The rich gambles and if they lose, they wouldn't feel as much as someone who gambled with the last funds in his account trying to double it or even making more money from it. It's absolutely unwise if you ask for anyone to gamble because of insufficient funds and the desire to make more money back I don't think gambling is an avenue for poverty alleviation.

Arsenal took revenge on Lens. Arsenal, who managed to defeat their opponent 6-0 at home, showered Lens with goals. For the home team, who scored five goals in the first half, we can say that the match was actually over and won, we can say that the second half was played in form. Because it seemed impossible for Lens to recover after such a heavy first half. With this win, Arsenal are certain to leave the group as leaders. Although they didn't play very well in the match, it is necessary to say that the difference was so much because they made good use of their goal positions.



Arsenal were beaten 2:1 by Lens early last month when the Gunners traveled to France for their first encounter of the season against Lens and that defeat I think sent a strong message to Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on why he has to put in all the necessary tactical approaches that can help his side beat the French team when they visit the Emirates stadium for the return leg of their fixture and he perfected his plan last night. The win yesterday ensured Arsenal's place in the round of 16 in the UEFA Champions League competition.

First of all it was hell of a game between Galatasaray and Manchester United.  Grin  First I was worried about the possibility of the match to be postponed due to rain and pitch conditions. But thankfully the conditions got better near the time of match. Firstly I must admit that I didn't like our general performance against Manchester United.

Because we were so vulnerable especially against counter-attacks. Our defenders weren't having a good day. Sanchez's absence was also felt a lot. I must admit another thing that Bruno Fernandes' goal was incredible.

After it became 1-3 I was losing my hopes quicker than before. But Onana's having a bad day helped us a lot. Ziyech kept his best performance for this game as it seems. Now we need to beat Copenhagen to secure last 16.
Andre Onana once again drew blames and criticisms to himself with his shambolic goalkeeping performance yesterday which helped Galatasaray to come from 3:1 down and drew against his Manchester United side in a game the Old Trafford club needed to win to keep their hopes of reaching the knockout stages in their own hands. With that result yesterday, if Galatasaray wins their final game of the group stage, they'll join Bayern Munich as the two clubs that'll qualify from the group.

Well, this is another serious matter, and I had to discourage her.

It's about an old female friend who posted me just about two days ago; her request was for me to teach her how to gamble at any easy casino that she will understand so quickly and make money. Her motive for making this kind of request is because she wants a second source that she can use to earn extra income. I explained what gambling truly is, and I discouraged her from learning how to gamble.

Now, there's a simple question that I want to ask: do you guys think I should introduce her to gambling? If yes, what's the easiest game she can stake in and also enjoy while gambling?

I don't recommend that you teach her about gambling, this is to prevent her from becoming a gambling addict, remember to only teach gambling to people who have the ability to manage emotions well.  imagine how much damage would be done to her personal life if she became a serious gambling addict, you would only be a bad person who ruined her life indirectly.

Of course, teaching someone whoever it is whether it's your friend or even your relative is really not recommended, even if for example they give you money in exchange for your services that will teach them how to gamble but I think still don't do it, and if I were in your position maybe I would immediately reject it raw - raw, no matter who it is. Honestly something like this also happened to me recently where a friend of mine asked me to teach him to gamble, he is an online game addict and has never touched gambling, when he asked me to teach him gambling I immediately rejected him and really broke his spirit by telling him the real facts in gambling.

I said that gambling is a very bad activity and not recommended and also I said that I don't want my friend to suffer the same thing as me due to the impact of gambling. Do you think with just a few discouraging sentences they will immediately believe me and change their mind? No friend every time I meet him he still asks me to teach gambling, I always refuse and lately I decided to stay away from him a little to avoid his requests. One of the reasons I don't teach him is firstly as we know that if they are addicted then it is dangerous and secondly my friend is a person who is easily provoked.
Gambling is one engagement I wouldn't want to teach anyone or will I advise anybody to teach anyone and I have my reasons for that but the most important of the reasons is the fact that if things should eventually turns sour in the  for the person that's been thought how to gamble, he'll certainly blame whoever that thought him/her how to gamble.

Gambling is rated 18+ for so many reasons and one of the reasons is that as an adult, you're responsible the outcome for any action you take be it a positive or negative one. I wouldn't want to be blamed for someone's misfortunes all in the name of helping out in teaching the person about gambling. If the person doesn't have the full knowledge of gambling, I'll advise him or her to seek the knowledge through internet search engines and not to think that I'll help out.

Munich is too dominant to compete for the title so I think a new champion is needed for this season, that is what I also want to see Leverkusen consistent until the end of the season, it is not easy to maintain the stamina and performance of every Leverkusen player so that it remains solid until the end of the season but this is Xabi's opportunity to show that he is capable of bringing Leverkusen to the Bundesliga title this season.

I know that Munich's strength has gotten better in the UCL and in the Bundesliga since Kane's arrival on the front line, so it makes the competition even more interesting, but of course Leverkusen just has to be consistent in winning ways and really not waste matches, let alone lose points, if Leverkusen wants to win the title this season. must get more full points to be able to maintain their position.
Munich has been the all top league toppers and we're definitely too used to them, I'm very much glad that a change is likely to occur this season and I really hope that the change works. Leverkusen are doing their best to compete hard in the league and the UEFA tournament too, Bayern Munich's league victory will unendingly be threatened, Leverkusen seems up to the task as they've not stopped winning.

 For Munich, they're competing hard in the Bundesliga and the UCL race seems pretty easy for them now. I believe tonight's game would be another win for them. They've got less work to do, coupled with the home advantage, enough goals are expected to flow. Leverkusen will do better in their Europa face off and it's certain that they'd win as well. Let's keep seeing the drama that'll unfold in the remaining weeks of the season.
The beauty of a league competition is when three or four teams are capable of winning the league but that's not been the case f the German Bundesliga over the past eleven years as we've seen Bayern Munich win the league in the past eleven seasons but I think that's because if how good of a side they've been over the years and also because of the fact that there's not been a strong side in the league that's capable of stopping them over the years as well.

You don't expect Bayern Munich to stop winning for another club to win because they want the league to look competitive rather it'll take a good performance by another German club to end Bayern Munich's dominance and I think Bayer Leverkusen is capable of doing that this season

Newcastle as a rich club did not buy many great players earlier this season. Their current performance tends to decline. In the EPL and UCL they did not perform optimally.  They should have maximized the mid-season market. They can prepare from now on by observing the players. One of Newcastle's current problems is strikers. So there is news they are approaching the second Top Scorer of the Bundesliga at the moment. He is Serhou Guirassy of Stuttgar.

As far as I know, the main owner of Newcastle is the Prince of Saudi Arabia and he is very rich in fact he can spend enough money to fully rebuild the team and buying just some players is not something hard for this person.
But I think maybe Saudis prefer to spend their money on their own teams and that's their first priority, maybe that's why Newcastle didn't buy any superstar players yet.


Newcastle can get some good players from saudi clubs if eddie howe wants but the coach is the key that needs to be sacked. Eddie howe was a bad coach. Even newcastle can also get ronaldo from al nassr as it was still owned by saudi club.
Saudi is also able spending so much money to strengthen newcastle but we don't even know the way eddie howe was trying to rebuild the club. He was a crappy coach. he shall not be trusted to handle a team that has unlimited money like this.
Jose mourinho will become the most suitable coach to replace him as he will able to build the dream team that will help club to win UCL and EPL.

In his interview, Eddie mentioned that even though Saudi offered him unlimited money for the transfer season, he declined the offer. His reasoning was that he wanted to prioritize purchasing players based on the club's needs and not solely on the available funds.
In my opinion, I believe that if Jose Mourinho were to join this club, it would greatly enhance its status as a top-tier club, especially considering the plethora of talented and renowned players it already boasts. I don't know why saudi hired this fucking howe.
I totally disagree with the opinion that Eddie Howe is a bad manager at Newcastle and that's because of what he's been able to achieve with the club since he became the manager if the club. Newcastle hasn't played in the UEFA Champions League competition since 2002/23 season before Eddie Howe helped them to qualify for the competition this season after finishing in the top four years f the English Premier League table last season. The truth is that Newcastle hasn't been impressive in the league like they did last season and that's because of the fact that they're also playing in Europe this season.

If Newcastle United owner wants to sign more players to the club to help improve their performance in January, I think that'll be a good idea but getting rid of Eddie Howe isn't a wise decision if you ask me

Let's assume Zidane was able to replace Ancelotti as the next manager of the Real Madrid club, I don't think Haaland will switch to Real Madrid or Mbappe switching to Real Madrid. Although, I would have preferred to see Haaland in Real Madrid so that he can consolidate the efforts currently put into scoring goals by Bellingham since the team is currently doing well with that young player.

If Haaland won't come, let Victor Osimhen come to the club instead. He's another goal machine that can make things happen for the Real Madrid as he players collaboratively with the efforts of Bellingham. I don't think even Barcelona can easily stand such powerful team with Zidane, a former player, being the manager at the same time.
Haaland probably stays in Man City because he still has a long time contract there. But Mbappe, his contract will expire next year, he is very possible to leave PSG or he won't have the chance to leave forever. He knows if PSG management will always make it difficult to leave PSG. So, Mbappe waits for the end of his contract to leave. And the destination for his next club, everyone must agree that it is Real Madrid. Real Madrid needs a player like Mbappe who has speed, high accuracy in scoring goals, and have good teamwork.

There are many options, If Haaland and Mbappe won't come, Real Madrid can negotiate to sign Osimhen. I think Osimhen has the intention to join Real Madrid, the problem is only about the agreement about his transfer fees.


Erling Haaland is currently one of the most important (if not the most important) Manchester City players and there's nothing that'll make Manchester City's management release their talisman to another club at the moment. If Zinedine Zidane becomes Carlo Ancelotti's successor at Real Madrid, I think he'll rather go for a Kylian Mbappe than to sign a striker like Erling Haaland because Zidane's style of play wouldn't give Haaland the kind of football he would want and that'll make it very difficult for Haaland to flourish at Manchester City.

Arsenal are said to be okay about parting their ways with Aaron Ramsdale at the end of the season. I don't understand why Arsenal have given up on him in the first place. I don't believe he is a bad goalkeeper. He has really been impressive with his nice saves after joining Arsenal as well. But suddenly they have just given up and decided to continue with David Raya.

Mikel Arteta's decision to drop Aaron Ramsdale as the club's first choice goalkeeper this season and use David Raya as the club's first choice shot stopper is still very surprising to me and I guess to a lot of football fans who has the same perception with me that Aaron Ramsdale is a better goalkeeper than David Raya but then again, Arteta is the manager and he has the final say. With the reports I've read so far, Ramsdale might not be stay at the club till the end of the season as the England international wants to get more playing time in other to make Gareth Southgate's team for the European championship next summer
Maybe they don't want two solid goalkeepers in the squad at the same time I don't know. Because when you have this situation the one to whom you don't give much chance could get unhappy and would like to leave by himself.
It's almost impossible for a club to keep two first choice goalkeepers at the same time because the goalkeeping position isn't like any of the outfield positions that players can be easily rotated. Ramsdale isn't comfortable to seat on the bench and that's why he's definitely gonna leave anytime soon
