It looks like West Ham are annoyed enough with the wait they are putting in for Harry Maguire's transfer that they prefer to call it off. On the other hand, Manchester United seems to have no other choice but to allow Harry Maguire to stay at Manchester United.
I've told friends if West Ham gets Maguire, then Maguire will perform great there because at West Ham United he can play without the pressure experienced at Manchester United, at least he can play well like in the England national team squad.

This also proves that Harry Maguire is very loyal to the red devils and he prefers to focus on improving his performance.
Regardless of the loyalty factor for those who judge. For me, Maguire's decision to cancel the transfer to West Ham was a fatal mistake in maintaining his career. At Old Trafford you can be sure he will fill the bench.
Loyalty was not the only problem. Westham unbale to pay him up to 190k for a week. It's too high for westham to pay him with that rate now. No guarantee his performance will be good as well.

Westham was making the right decision by move on. Westham can find a better once which has less salary and better performance compared with him. It doesn't even make sense if westham is still trying to pursuit him at this moment.
It's gonna be a big lose for westham the club will be going for meguire. Megurei is not having intention in leaving from manchester united at this moment. MU was not even able accepting to give loyalty fully.

Meguier has the opportunity to join a new club, but he needs to be interested in leaving but the club needs fulfill certain requirements.

such thing truly depends on your flexibility of reacting to the current circumstances after all doesn't matter whatever strategy there is you should know how to make some decision intercepting the current strategy if things went wrong and your investment might be at risk of losing instead.
but then again there strategy as simple as holding thats already proven to be effective throughout the year, even if market getting massive bearish you could just prolong the duration of your holding and you're still one.
with trading you don't have that luxury, you always need to watch out for the market movement, and sometimes you might question whether trading is worth the effort.

it's honestly matter of an individual who's gonna be investing, if they are smart enough to understand the concept of meme coins in general compared with altcoins with fundamentals they wouldn't even correlate it with the images of bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general.
the thing is that, these meme coins are sometimes trying to gather investors that are quite new in cryptocurrency, these kind of investors that they are seeking are the ones that are greedy to get rich quick and then they bring them down and cause them to lose capital which make them assuming as if cryptocurrency investment is just shitcoin investment. i wouldn't say it tarnishing cryptocurrency as an investment in general, its just that they often mislead people.
1464  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Staking Coins With Annual Returns - Good Idea on: August 15, 2023, 10:40:44 PM
Staking isn't a bad decision but choosing the wrong exchanges, wallet, and coins really matters a lot because the results will depend on them. If you are badly choosing any of those, you will never expect Returns/earnings but you probably get losses. But this is not the reason why I don't do staking anymore because of the risk involve and the profit sharing because I know myself that I can make more if I'll never stake my coins instead, I use it to trade.

Well, the only thing I would say to you OP is to be more cautious. Research and background check is very important because a single mistake will certainly lose your money instantly.

this much is actually true, staking involves trust towards the platform that we are staking our money in.
whether we could score some profits hugely depends on the platform itself, if the platform itself is legit, we could definitely get some good returns.
but the thing is that, sometimes the APY offered is relatively low.
if we are finding some coins with relatively high APY then we should degrade the choice of our staking to the lesser trusted and reliable, which means higher risk of not getting the investment and profit back but might make the capital we invested in vanish.

In Atlético Madrid vs Granada team Granada scored 1 goal today. On the other hand Atlético Madrid won the match by scoring 3 goals. 3 players of Atlético Madrid team played very well today and scored goals. In this match Granada team goalkeeper A. Ferreira is very bad.  did.S.  Omorodion Aghehowa scored a goal in the 62nd minute.
Atletico madrid looks very strong right now. There's no need to use felix anymore and he shall leave from the club. A perfect result achieved by duo atletico while barcelona was struggling with its performance. I hope that barcelona will not make the same mistake in upcoming match. Morata just proves him still worth as a central striker. Atletico sees the importance of retaining him over switching to Felix, who has shown a terrible performance. Depay is also still doing very well. He was scoring a goal against granada.
Granada was not a tough opponent but atletico mdrid's win must be appreciated. It's an excellent result from atletico madrid even though the club cannot get a cleansheet against granada.
Three points are enough for the first week rather than 1. Granada was lucky enough scoring a goal against atletico madrid.

Mbappe is expected to play against Toulouse four days later. He was out of squad first but thankfully he is back in it again. Because he would be a big loss for PSG if they don't give him a chance while they still have him in the team. There has been a serious tension between sides maybe but it looks like things are better now.
Mbappe is starting to open his heart for PSG after he was making the drama become even longer than he has expected. Guti has been also responding it by saying real madrid must have signed haaland instead of mbappe from PSG.
Mbappe has been also called as acting for money.

Quote
The French forward has been reinstated to the first team after holding constructive talks with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi. However, according to reports, there has been no talk of an extension and the player is willing to give up his loyalty bonus to walk away for free next summer. Although PSG still want Mbappe to sign a renewal so that he does not leave for free, it is believed a final agreement is still way off.

However, if Mbappe does make a U-turn, Real Madrid legend Guti has warned that Los Blancos will give up on their pursuit of the forward and instead focus on Manchester City star Haaland.
https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/kylian-mbappe-real-madrid-erling-haaland-psg/blt9ad8f3fd3fc62708

It's not yet clear what his motive is in doing such drama. It's an unnecessary thing to happen between him and PSG.

Mbappe would play in Asensio or Lee Kang-in's place in this game most probably. He is already not playing completely like a winger or centre-forward. He is more like the key player of the team who gets the most amount of passes and creates big goal opportunities by using his one-on-one skills.
I thought that if mbappe will be playing as central striker to replace goncalo ramos which has been bought by PSG. I can't deny mbappe can also play as a winger but PSG was always using him as central striker last season.
Im feeling doubt if PSG will be using him as winger instead of striker.

I have seen fabrice hawkins already revealed lavia's agreement with chelsea. Chelsea already reached an agreement with him for almost €40m. I think that we will see romano will try to confirm it as well.

Many speculations regarding him to pick chelsea rather than arsenal.

Romano has been also confirming it as well. Chelsea is getting a new midfielder. The club may able to combine caicedi, lavia and enzo to play together in the field.
I hope pochettino's expectation will be meet. Chelsea was able getting far less price compared with liverpool's offer. Liverpool is losing again in this battle. So many people were commenting on romano's tweet with various response regarding lavia's agreement with chelsea.

In this transfer window, Bernardo Silva got offers from many teams, and maybe the most generous offers were from Barcelona and Saudi Arabia, It seems Bernardo Silva himself wants to play for Barcelona in the next season, and if they offer him the better and higher amount of money he can even leave Manchester City but currently the contract of Bernardo Silva will expire in the next two years and Manchester City even want to extend the offer for this 29-year-old palter which can make it even harder for other teams to have Bernardo Silva.

Bernardo silva is not for sale. Manchester city is trying so hard to defend silva and walker from so many clubs. I remember when walker already made a personal agreement with munich but he was changing his mind in last minutes to stay in city even longer.
Guardiola will not let important players for the club to leave. There have been so many teams linked to those players but the city was always rejecting it. Silva's contract is still remain very long. He can decide to extend it anytime.
Manchester city was also offeringhim to extend his contract in the club. This helps a lot. I don't even think silva keen to leave from the club just caused by the money offered by another club.
We must also consider his loyality to the club as well. Even though money was important but he plays ina. good team ruight now.
1469  Economy / Economics / Re: What could Elon Musk be buying next? on: August 14, 2023, 02:39:52 PM
after twitter, I guess he won't be buying any company for a while, he's got media and some bleeding edge technology already, I wonder if he's not satisfied enough with that.
though maybe he gonna make some acquisitions here and there but regardless I think he has spend a good amount of money in order to acquire twitter and probably right now more focused in getting that money back.
i'd be more surprised if elon really trying to acquire some other company other than the other bleeding tech companies for the sake of making all his company move forward in term of technology.
but at the end of the day, elon is a billionaire, he definitely has bright minds thats different than everyone.
1470  Economy / Economics / Re: Big companies will never let you have the financial freedom on: August 14, 2023, 02:06:45 PM
considering the massive population of human nowadays that the competition is so difficult simply eliminates this reasoning, big companies aren't lacking of workforce I guess, nowadays everything leans more towards consumerism which makes many consumtive, the existence of many latest technology that kept on increase in term of price over the course of the year already make people have no choice but to keep working.
i guess its just that earning that much of money to accomplish your financial target is definitely difficult, everyone trying to succeed at that, but only very few percentage of them spared to have such luxury.
the rest will fail, thats just how it is.
1471  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What factors contributed to the absence of price change after the Litecoin halvi on: August 14, 2023, 01:26:26 PM
My rough guess is that its because very few people anticipated the halving I guess, the thing with bitcoin is that, its the trend setter.
whatever happen to bitcoin gonna happen to the other altcoins, so the halving is somewhat already expected to be massive ones and will eventually change the tide of the market.
meanwhile with litecoin, if you see from the chart, it always strongly follow the trend of bitcoin, which hardly give anyone idea that it will gone astray, not following the trend when the halving is happening.
let alone halving, ethereum and many other top coins out there with their massive burning sometimes didn't even change their value.
1472  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 14, 2023, 01:03:23 PM

In the first week of the EPL, only 6 teams managed to secure 3 points and the rest only shared the same 1 point or even no one got any points at all. Currently, Newcastle is at the top of the standings, followed by Brighton, Manchester City and Arsenal. But there is still one more match left for the first week of the EPL and today will bring together Manchester United vs Wolves.
The last match for this week. Hojlund will not be playing against wolves as he is still getting injury. Ten hag feels doubt to put him in the main squad for this match.
I think that hojlund will be playing in upcoming match. Manchester united is still having some good players to be used. I see no problem for the club not use hojlund in this match.
Ten hag will be doing more observation regarding his injury prone. Ten hag must be careful for that.

Of course, Manchester United is definitely favored because it will be the host and I'm quite curious to wait for Rasmus Hojlund's debut wearing the red devil jersey later. It is likely that Erik ten hag will appear directly with his main squad and seeing Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs only get one point, this will be an opportunity for him to push to the top if he manages to beat Wolves.

Wolves can be considered as easy opponent. Manchester united was able beating wolves last season, the same result will happen again. MU must be careful with counter attack strategy that used by wolves.
It's pretty interesting to watch the last match on this week.
1473  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk and the fall of Twitter on: August 13, 2023, 11:52:17 PM
Well maybe there is not a fall of twitter anymore. Because before Elon Musk bought it it was going to look like it was going to become bankrupt.
But now the CEO Linda Yaccarino is saying it is almost to point of breaking even. She says a reason is that they reduced the staff from 8000 to only now 1500 people.
thats surprising news to be honest, many are saying that elon just quite literally become the cause of the twitter impending doom but it turned out to be a big misconception.
elon is currently playing 4d chess here. but i guess the fact that twitter is close to break even is because the fact that they are making the blue tick badge and gold ones a subscription that generates them consistent money
monthly for long term, they aren't dependent on those advertisers no more, which probably might their overall condition of the company economy improving.
the fact that even instagram which is owned by meta is doing the same thing, speaks a lot about how well this strategy went.
1474  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal launches an Ethereum-based Stablecoin! on: August 13, 2023, 11:12:27 PM
This does not benefit us or the crypto industry in any way, what Paypal is doing is just for the profit they are aiming for. As far as I know, companies that have issued stablecoins are making significant profits and that's what Paypal is looking for, nothing more and nothing less. But what makes me funny is, no one told them that using the ETH network will have very high transaction fees and I think many people will not use their stable coin with the expensive transaction fees that the ETH network causes.
i don't really think issuing stablecoin means massive profits at best its just really small profits that they get but the fact that they got the capital, so it might increase the profit significantly.
the fact that they deployed their token in ethereum doesn't necessarily means it will stay in ethereum forever either, they are just trying to get into the most popular blockchain. then after that they could easily just deploy the token in the other blockchain.
its the same with the other stablecoin out there, they always starts out from ethereum then the other blockchain. they are trying to build the system first.
1475  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Really Burn helps Token in positive way? on: August 13, 2023, 10:48:46 PM
I still think that people do not understand the value of it, but there are also unlimited supply ones that burn as well which makes no sense to me at all. When there is a limited supply and you do a buyback and you burn the ones you buy, that really makes all the worth in the world.

But, when you have an unlimited supply that constantly grows and minted 10 million new coins this year and you burned a million of it, the result may not be how you want it to be. This is why I believe that it's going to be something quite important to challenge, it will take some time for sure, not going to be same at all. I hope that it gets to a point where it will not be that simple, and we are going to end up making sure that it can be improved further.
the thing with unlimited supply coin that did burning is simple, you just see their circulating supply, if over the course of the year the burning could somewhat mantains balance and even could reduce the circulating supply and there's many demand for the coin itself, then I guess the burning does helps in raising the value.
other than that, it depends on the coin itself when its got unlimited supply, ethereum is unlimited supply but the burning mechanism is there to keep the circulating supply from flooding the markets.
it would be silly if it is some random coin with unlimited supply that allows the devs themselves to mint whatever they want.
1476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 13, 2023, 12:11:31 PM
As far as I know there is still no official confirmation that Osimhen has signed a new contract with Napoli for the time being. We have seen so many crazy things happen recently that I wouldn't be too sure about Osimhen staying at Napoli for as long as the transfer market is still open. They have been saying that there was an agreement and such, but nobody actually confirmed that in an official statement and there are still rumors going on about Osimhen. I don't think he will go to Saudi Arabia, which was also discussed, but European clubs could still be after him.

The owner of the club Napoli has confirmed Osimhen will certainly continue to play with Napoli this season besides that Osimhen is still under contract for the next 2 years so he can't make personal decisions. if we want to hear news of Osimhen's move then it should be next season, ideally the club will release or extend the player's contract when the contract has one more season left. With this statement, we are sure that Napoli is still ambitious to win the Italian League title.

I can't even coubt how many times aurelio was confirming it. He keeps even repeat the same statement over and over again. I don't care anymore about osimhen as napoli neved had intention to let him go.

Aurelio is trying so hard defending him at this moment. His mind will change if napoli will perform so badly this season. Let's wait and see.

Osimhen's future determine by the result from this season.
1477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: August 13, 2023, 12:05:28 PM
Barcelona are also going to start the new season as of their away game against Getafe today. Real Madrid started really solidly despite not signing a striker in Benzema's place yet. Playing away against Athletic Bilbao isn't easy normally but Real Madrid showed it too easy. Barcelona had better give a nice answer to them.
Barcelona will face no difficulty in fighting against getafe. I think that barcelona will have the same start as real madrid to win the first game with cleansheet. IMO, barcelona's squad is much more capable compared with real madrid. Getafe will not be a hard opponent for barcelona.
Raphinha will be filling dembele's position and he is good enough as a winger. Xavi may not try to miss the first three points against getafe.

Ferran Torres will not play due to being suspended of yellow cards. As Dembele has also left the team I assume Barcelona would start with Fati and Raphinha on the wings. I wonder how Lewandowski will start to the season. He is getting even older but he is still a world-class player. I hope to see a start with at least one goal.
Raphinha is far better. Missing dembele was nothing for barcelona caused by the club is still having a lot of players are ready to play against getafe. I think that lewandowski's performance will always stable.
It doesn't matter a lot of he was aging but the fact that if he can keep his performance very stable at this moment. I think lewandowski will perform even better as he has a target to be broken this season.
1478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 13, 2023, 11:48:00 AM
There weren't many surprises in the first match the favorite teams win as predicted Arsenal, Newcastle United, Brighton all get 3 points
Those clubs were getting easy points against mediocre team. Newcastle was performing so good against aston villa. Arsenal and manchester city have been getting three points caused by they were facing mediocre club. I would not be surprised to see that if the big clubs like city and arsenal farmed easy points in the previous matches. City gonna face newcastle soon and this will become a huge challenge.

Next, look forward to the fight between Chelsea vs Liverpool rather difficult to predict but the situation is more favorable for Chelsea.
This match is really hard to predict. Chelsea has been performing so well during the pre season competitions. It's equal to the newcastle and i think that we will see a hard game between both of clubs.
It's also possible for chelsea and liverpool to play passively in this match. So many people were expecting chelsea and liverpool gonna play safe. I hope they will be able to show a fully offensive performance.

It will make the match even more attractive. I wonder who will be replacing nkuku's position as he will be out from the club till the end of season.

Bayern Munich didn't look ready in their first game against Leipzig in the German Super Cup. They lost by 3-0. They played the same match last season and won by 5-3. I wonder if we will see the continuation of this bad look for a while. I wouldn't like to be prejudiced about Bayern Munich of course as it is just the beginning.
Bayern played so badly against leipzig. I didn't even expect how bayern would be playing that bad even leipzig was humiliating it 3-0. Bayern needs to push itself. I think that sign tuchel was not a moral decision from bayern.
The club needs a lot of evaluation. The attacking line was so bad. The result from the pre season was nothing as bayern has been using its best squad right now. I think that the bad trend will continue till the bundesliga gonna be starting very soon.


But it would be for their benefit to pull themselves together as soon as possible to get ready for the Champions League as well. In the end there is only around a month left for group stage matches to start. Most importantly Kane needs to adapt quickly to be able to make the expected level of contribution.
I hope kane will able to give huge contribution to the bayern. The club's performance has been plunged so hard. I can't even imagine what's gonna happening with bayern if it keeps perform so badly in bundesliga.
Leipzig looks very strong even without its top scorer last season. I can't even believe how leipzig was humiliating bayern easily. Many people were losing their bets on bayern.

if you think its too good to be true then its pure scam.
nobody is giving that much money for free, so i'm sure its just scam, of course there are actually many NFT being released nowadays for the sake of eligibility of airdrops in the future
like those new emerging blockchain that gives voyage NFT and being used for future purpose of airdrop qualification, but the thing is that in getting those NFT you are the ones that claims the NFT not just getting
sent some random NFT like this, moreover giving 1.5 ETH for free, no airdrop is giving away ethereum, at best its their token, so the conclusion is that its just blatant attempt of scamming just ignore it since there's nothing you can do about it anyway.
