It's not right for me to talk before the season starts. They said similar things about Naples last year. Napoli won the league by a clear point margin. We can see a similar picture this year. It will be announced a few weeks after the start of the league. I think Napoli will perform well again.
I agree that it's always difficult to predict how a team will perform before the start of the league, but considering Napoli are a team that has good squad depth then maybe their form won't change too much. We can expect Napoli to have the same form as last season, but it is always possible to get it changed for various reasons. One of the most obvious reasons is, they are no longer working with Luciano Spalletti.

Kylian Mbappe is undoubtedly an amazing footballer. Kylian Mbappe is currently one of the best attacking players in the PSG team. Therefore, the PSG authorities will not want Mbappe to leave the team, causing danger to the team.
PSG will definitely try to keep Kylian Mbppe in their squad, but on the other hand Kylian Mbappe can force PSG to let him go because they don't want to extend his contract again. There is no doubt about Mbappe's quality, it has been recognized by the world so far but PSG don't have many options to make Mbappe stay with them longer considering Mbappe only has 1 year left on his contract.

Mbappe is important for PSG, because of his quality and ability as a striker. But in any case, PSG will have to part ways with the striker if there is no agreement between the two. Kylian Mbappe is wanted by top teams, it's because of his quality.

PSG need to get money from Mbappe so they will not release the player. They will not terminate the contract and let Mbappe goes away as a free agent. They can reduce price at the end to sell Mbappe but they can hold the negotiation to bargain as highest transfer price as possible.
Of course PSG don't want to lose Mbappe without profiting from his sale. I think it would still be good to lower the price instead of letting him go for nothing, but many teams are monitoring the player's situation so far. I believe PSG will eventually lower their prices when neither team really wants to pay the amount they are asking, that is a consequence that will probably be considered.

Luis Enrique has the desire to keep Mbappe in his squad, but he has no more power than to make his wish known. Kylian Mbappe will decide his future at the end of next season, but he also has the possibility of staying at PSG if something is reached in a new deal.

Gundogan is very good for tiki taka after about six years with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. Even Pep upgraded initial tiki taka from Barcelona to Bayern Munich then Manchester City, the core idea of tiki taka was digested by Gundogan. He will not have difficulty in Barcelona especially we saw Xavi did not change the initial tiki taka too much in one season and a half with Barcelona.
I agree, both teams have the same style of play where both focus on ball possession with short and accurate passes.
Of course this will make it easier for Ilkay Gundogan to adapt to the game, but it might be hampered if he doesn't get good support from other players. But I'm sure Ilkay Gundogan won't have too many difficulties during his adaptation at Barcelona, ​​that's because of his professionalism and high experience as a top player.

They did not want to sign a too long contract with an old player like Gundogan but it is what the player wanted. Without agreement, they had to separated and Gundogan also want to challenge himself at a new league, La Liga.
Whether Manchester City has plans to keep Ilkay Gundogan or not before his contract expires last season, Ilkay Gundogan also has a desire to play in La Liga with Barcelona.

Looks like Guendongan is still in the negotiation stage, because it is rumored that he will leave City, Pep is still taking a more approach to maintaining Guendong, however he is a player who made a big contribution to the glory of Manchester City last season.
If the player you are referring to is Ilkay Gundogan, then you have made a big mistake. Ilkay Gundogan has become an official Barcelona player, it was announced some time ago since Barcelona managed to sign him for free. I agree that Ilkay Gundogan has contributed greatly to Manchester City's title success over the last few seasons, but unfortunately Manchester City did not manage to extend his contract so Barcelona stepped forward as the next port of Ilkay's career.

Maybe it is true that Mahrez could leave the city, because he receives an offer from Saudi Arabia, including maybe Bernardo Silva who continues to be targeted by PSG to this day, PSG really wants him to be able to join them in the French league, indeed these players are quite good and we know how they have a big contribution very good with Manchester City, even though today Pep has new players like Kovacic and Gvardiol, Pep has to turn his head because there is quite a lot to prepare, even though he is still the favorite team, but that will change if another team is able to beat Manchester City with dominate it.
All players will leave at some time, regardless of whether they retire or move to another team. Bernardo Silva and Mahrez are likely to move in the near future, but I think Silva will still be around for the next 1-2 seasons.

Of course Manchester City will find replacements for the players who have left, but this will only be done in a phased manner. So far Manchester City have been very good in terms of player transfers, that is part of the reason why they have players with good quality.

Bitcoin is originally designed to a be a digital currency. However, since it’s adoption is still in the process, people are free to use it as an investment knowing it can give us massive returns everytime it’s value surges high and reaches another peak price. Through long term hodling and trading, bitcoin can give us 10x profits as long as we’re aware when would be its best time to sell, and that is when it’s price has reached its all time high.
Even if bitcoin has become a globally adopted currency, trading and investing will still be a profitable option for traders and investors. Its price volatility is the reason why investors and traders trade bitcoin, but when the value becomes more stable the trading volume may be lower.

I don't see anything wrong about the usefulness of bitcoin as an investment asset or a traded asset. It is something that is as much possible to do just as one would trade any other currency.

There is no luck and they are too focused on chasing the Champions League, so Real Madrid's appearance in La Liga is not fully concentrated. Entering the second half of the season, they also experienced a decline in performance and suffered several defeats which caused their points to be further away from Barcelona. This season they have good strength compared to Barcelona and there are good hopes for next season for Real Madrid.
I don't think Real Madrid is any better than Barcelona after Benzema went to the Arab Pro League. Real Madrid do not have a suitable striker next season as Asensio has also gone to Ligue 1 and joined PSG. No real striker has signed for Real Madrid to replace their best striker, but they have had a good midfielder since signing Jude Bellingham.

If you compare Real Madrid vs Barcelona, ​​then I think Barcelona are still quite ready to win the La Liga title next season. They lost Busquets and Jordi Alba, but Barcelona still have a suitable replacement for the two senior players next season. La Liga is even more exciting when both teams have great strikers, but I think it's difficult for Real Madrid players to stop Lewandowski from top scorer without Benzema.

For the time being there have been no stories or rumors in terms of leaving Manchester City for Pep Guardiola because next season Pep Guardiola will still train Manchester City and that is very good for Manchester City. Especially if next season Manchester City will remain strong to fight for another title in every league, because last season Manchester City had just won its first title in the Champions League so it will definitely try to get it again next season.
Pep Guardiola once stated that he is not 100% happy to stay with Manchester City if some of the team's policies will cost him as a coach. Rumors of his departure echo last season when Manchester City were stumped over financial problems, but they have died down and have not surfaced until now.

I think Pep Guardiola will still try some new challenges in different leagues including in Serie A or maybe in Ligue 1. But so far the Premier League is one of the most competitive competitions apart from La Liga and the Bundesliga,  so I think Pep Guardiola will stay for the next few seasons.

It is undeniable, Manchester City is still the strongest team in the EPL to date. Manchester City dominance in the EPL started since the arrival of Pep Guardiola, although he was not the first coach to present the EPL title for Manchester City, he was able to make Cityzen consistently compete at the top.

Of course this season the competition in the EPL is getting higher, Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United who had collapsed last season are starting to improve their squad by bringing in several new fleets. The EPL has been very competitive in recent years, Guardiola prowess in strategizing has made Manchester City able to dominate the EPL.
Everyone already knows about how great Pep Guardiola turned Manchester City into the most dominant team in the Premier League. Manchester City have won a lot of titles since Pep Guardiola took charge of them, so that will no longer be in doubt.

Each time it will be difficult for every coach given the changes and improvements in each team, so there is no guarantee that Manchester City will be able to defend their title even though they have a great chance to repeat it again next season. Manchester City are the favourites, but another team will be looking to go top of the table and stop him.

Luckily, Manchester city has Guardiola and trusts him to take care of coaching and planning attack strategies when facing each of his opponents. Guardiola is not only smart but he never gives up even though he failed several times in the previous UCL. He remains confident that he can bring Manchester City to win the UCL last season. even getting a treble winner at the same time which made a surprise to all the other clubs that they couldn't be stopped.

I think everyone also agrees with that, but after seeing that there are some players who might leave Manchester City I hope Guardiola really gets new players who can replace those who have left at least better, I'm sure Guardiola can find talented players because he always picks the right man in the manchester city squad.
I don't think Pep Guardiola is too worried about some players leaving the team for one reason or another. It's natural for a team that Pep Guardiola will have a plan to build up his squad on a regular basis from one season to another. I'm not too worried about that, of course because I think Pep Guardiola is a coach who can build his squad well as he has done in the last few seasons.

Pep Guardiola will always find support financially from the owners of Manchester City if it is his aim to build a squad. Manchester City has become the most frightening team in Europe, it's because of the quality of the players and the strategy of the coach.

PSG are making serious efforts to transfer forward after Messi. Besides Vlahovic, there are reports that they are interested in Kane. Bayern Munich have been trying to persuade Kane and Tottenham for a long time. There were reports that they offered Tottenham first 70 million euros and then 80 million euros for Kane, but we could not see a result. PSG have the financial power to act more decisively than Bayern Munich. I think Vlahovic and Kane are closer to them. While Bayern Munich are trying to gain an advantage of several million euros, we can see one of these two players under the PSG jersey.
Of course PSG has good financial clout to make signing a player seem easy. But everything is not as easy as we think, that's because PSG is also overshadowed by the FFP rules that apply to all teams in Europe. They certainly have money, but if their income and expenses are not in balance then surely something else will work against them. Harry Kane and Dusan Vlahovic are certainly good for PSG uniforms, but PSG are unlikely to be able to sign both of them in one season.

PSG's main focus right now is the future of Kylian Mbappe, not just their new striker. Luis Enrique has a plan in building his squad, so PSG's transfer policy will also benefit from it. I tend to think Enrique will focus on improving the quality of midfielders and defenders rather than forwards, that is an important part of his game plan next season.

For quality improvement yeah right I agree that was one of the impacts when bringing in european players but from a business standpoint I really doubt it, I mean they won't get more profit for what they have spent. I've said it many times that business is not their main target, I think the main purpose of the promotion I mean they want to promote other projects through this League it's just that not everyone realizes it. I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years Saudi Arabia will host the world cup but don't think that this is their main target this is another part of the promotion stage.
I realize that too, only I don't say it as often as you do. There are other targets that the Arabs want to achieve besides business and improving the quality of their league, but something like promoting themselves as the home team for a future World Cup may also be on their list of plans.

I don't really follow much of the Arab Pro League other than the fact that many of Europe's top players have joined. The Arab Pro League may be getting competitive, but that development isn't going to be big in short term. Long-term projects are much more likely to be prioritized, but they do take a lot of money, planning and investment.

Newcastle also appeared surprising this season because they have finished in 4th position to displace several other big teams such as Liverpool and Tottenham.
Arsenal did fail to maintain its first position but surprisingly also able to compete with Manchester City before, even in the first half Arsenal dominated the standings until almost the second half.

It will be more interesting to see some of the other Premier League teams have built their current squads to again thwart Manchester City back to the championship, but I'm not underestimating it anyway Manchester City will be a lot of favourites but who knows the season now there will be changes where other big teams will take over the trophy, I think it is still very possible.
Nobody knows which team will win the title next season, but I think Manchester City has a high probability of repeating it. Another team like Newcastle will certainly surprise, but I believe their probability of winning the Premier League title is no better than Manchester City, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool.

So far all teams have tried to build the quality of their team by bringing in several new players to prepare for next season's competition. Chelsea and Arsenal appear to be spending a lot of money on players, while Manchester United, Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester City appear to have only made some patches in some of the weaker positions last season.

Of course it is very exaggerated if we assume that the Saudi Pro League will be above the big European leagues.
With the presence of several well-known players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Kante and a series of other names it only became a moment's attention.
I dare say the Saudi Pro League is only used as a place for players to enjoy life with big salaries. No longer chasing achievements.
Players like Lionel Messi prefer MLS to the Saudi Pro League. We can judge that not all players are interested.

Regarding the statistics and achievements of this league, I doubt it will go as expected. If there is a change, it will not be too significant.
Regardless of the underlying reasons for these top players joining the Arab Pro League, I'm just sure it will make the Arab Pro League better in quality. I also agree that the Arab Pro League will not be better than other leagues in Europe, but at least the Arab Pro League will get more value and attention from football lovers.

If the transfer activity of several Arab Pro League teams is viewed from a business perspective, then of course it will benefit them in many ways. This team will get more attention, they will also get more supporters and it is likely that ticket sales for each of their matches will increase. The impact on the business side will be very positive regardless of what observers say.

Apart from Manchester City, other major teams have performed really badly in the last Premier League season. In the next season, those teams will want to build themselves up so that they can correct their mistakes and perform as well as Manchester City.
I don't agree with your assumptions, I think Arsenal and Manchester United had good performances last season, but they can't compete with teams who have a high level of consistency like Manchester City. Arsenal failed to maintain consistency due to the pressure exerted by Manchester City, but that's only normal because Manchester City is the better team.

Next season will be different mainly because these teams have built more quality from squad depth, but I think Manchester City are big favorites to secure the title. Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle have all the chances to end Manchester City's dominance, but the chances won't be any bigger than what Manchester City have so far.
1036  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to $120k next year - by Robert Kiyosaki on: July 14, 2023, 05:33:33 PM
Bitcoin will be $120k next year I think that prediction is too easy to say considering bitcoin fundamentals will actually have a positive impact on its price. We have a halving next year, obviously that will push the price even higher. In fact I'm confident enough to say bitcoin will be $150k in the next 2 years, that's also because of its strong fundamentals.

Sometimes what influencers say doesn't convince me, but if they make a halving benchmark in their analysis then I can trust them. Even if $120k is not reached within 5 - 10 months after the halving, then I believe bitcoin price will hit a new ATH in 2024 or 2025.

Bitcoin is an asset that allows its holders to earn huge returns due to the very high market demand. Its price volatility allows you to make multiple profits instead of using it as a means of payment. Of course it's fine if you don't make bitcoins as an investment asset, but you may miss the opportunity to get a return from its price volatility.

Bitcoin is traded around the clock and it would definitely be a great value added asset to have. While some users consider it digital gold, it's because of how the market works just like any other investment asset.

There are many boards we are aware of because we can view them all but if we can't understand like local boards what's the fun of accessing it all? And for each new discussion we don't need to have a separate board as these can be done in general boards like economic board or if some general topics to be discussed genuinely we have serious discussion board in which newbies can't post to avoid spams so it's all good upto the point.If we have lot of particular discussion and community demand then admin can look into it like latest we have Nigeria local board but the struggle for it and need was real.
I completely agree with that and not every request to add a new board has to be approved by an admin. We've had a few requests about new boards in the past year (I was too lazy to find the thread), but the admin didn't grant those requests considering it's still possible to discuss on altcoin boards or other general board.

I don't know how many new board have been added in the last year, but I still remember Nigeria was one of the newest for local board and also the addition and adjustment of sub boards for Indonesian local board.

PSG should sell Mbappe to recover the money spent earlier and buy themselves a replacement striker. I think even giving him more power would make matters worse, PSG gave him a lot of privileges and power. To lead to too much internal turmoil. PSG is a rich club but not a united collective. Although there are many good players, they do not bring good results. Mbappe will leave PSG, and Messi has also left PSG.
The burden may be on the shoulders of coach Luis Enrique. He was embarking on the rebuilding of the decaying Paris Saint-Germain.
We all know that PSG may never be happy with Mbappe's current situation which basically leaves only 1 year on his contract. Kylian Mbappe must be sold before his contract expires, but if PSG don't sell him then the consequence is that they will lose Mbappe without getting any money.

Luis Enrique will obviously carry a lot of weight in his 2-year contract as PSG coach starting next season. Enrique will still demand PSG sign some players instead of continuing to try to keep hold of Mbappe, but he will certainly be happy with the process. There has been some news about players being linked with PSG, but none of that seems too clear apart from the few players they have already signed.
