If they were to play like that constantly, I would say that they can be much more of a threat to many of the stronger teams in Europe as well. So far every team knew that neutralizing Mbappe is the first important key to success. Kolo Muani again didn't score, but once he can play his best on a regular basis, maybe PSG can attack in Europe again. But for that they need to repeat this every week.
Kolo Muani plays the games normal performance and as long as the whole team plays well, that will be no problem. Paris are now on first place in the league, so all things are going well. We will reading a lot more Bad things if it wasnt. No striker scored a goal this game, i mean Mbappe, Kolo Muani and Dembele. Hakim set up two goals, so a defensive player. In this game, the defense had to win the game.


It's like some players, do not have the solo power to actually single-handedly win a match. Especially when the other players are not performing at their best. If all the other players are performing above average, it also enables that certain player to perform well. I think Kolo Muani is a player like that. And we all know that PSG is definitely not a fan favorite anymore. A lot of people have started hating PSG. As soon as they perform badly people jump on to make bad comments. Of course that also means people are going to make a lot of comments about players who are not performing well also.

Afghanistan is strong side because of their batting and bowling unit. Netherlands is new and not so much experience in world cup cricket. Afghanistan played 6 matches so far in this world cup and they have win 3 match against world champions team England, Pakistan and Srilanka with 8 points and 6th postion on points tables. Netherlands aslo played 6 matches in this world cup they win only 2 match one against Top team South Africa and Second is against Bangladesh, they are 8th Positions in point tables. Winner of this match between Afghanistan and Netherlands will have more chances to qualify for Champion trophy.
In terms of experience, both the teams are at the same level. Netherlands was part of the 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League (scrapped for the second season), and as a part of this tournament they played 24 ODI matches against full member nations. And they do have very experienced players such as Wesley Barresi, Logan van Beek and Roloef van der Merwe. So it is not actually correct to label the Netherlands as an inexperienced team. They maybe an associate nation, but there is no dearth of international experience for sure.
I would say Afghanistan players are more experienced on Indian pitch than Netherlands. Because Afghanistan squad has several players who are playing regularly in IPL. However, Afghanistan team is in better form than Netherlands. Afghanistan team managed to defeat Sri Lanka Pakistan and England team. They are playing very well. Lucknow's pitch helps the bowlers a lot. If Afghanistan's bowlers are able to perform their duties properly then they have a chance to win.
Netherlands lost the wicket of opener Barresi in the first over. But at the end of 8 overs their collection is 51/1. O'Dowd and Colin are batting very responsibly. They managed to score more than 6 runs per over.

Max O'Dowd and Colin Ackermann put on an excellent partnership of 70 runs. But Max O'Dowd was just run out. Max O'Dowd was unlucky. He got out after collecting 42 runs off 40 balls. Azmatullah Omarzai fielded well. Netherlands managed to collect 74 runs in 12 overs. Although the run rate is quite good, I doubt whether Netherlands will be able to bat 50 overs. If the Netherlands can deliver a target of more than 280 today, they have a chance of winning. But if the target is less than 280 then Afghanistan team will win. Netherlands bowlers are not experienced enough. So the batsmen have to try to give big targets.

Unlike you, I don't think if this can change anything to see Dortmund playing at home or away against Bayern Munich because we know the chance for Bayern Munich to beat Dortmund is much higher. Checking the last five meets these two teams had before against each other, I can see Bayern Munich won four games while they had one draw and Dortmund could never beat Bayern Munich in these five meets they had, this can make it riskier to bet on Dortmund.
Even though it is likely that it will be difficult for Dortmund to beat Bayern Munich, for now Dortmund is still one of the teams that Bayern Munich must be wary of because considering that the number of matches this season is still quite large, so some of the teams in the top five of the standings actually still have a chance to win. making it difficult for Bayern Munich to win another title this season, even though many people have never doubted the potential of Bayern Munich this season.

There is no doubt that Bayern Munich is a very strong team. Even so, Bayern Munich players have to play very carefully in this match. There is no chance of underestimating the Dortmund team. The Dortmund team is also quite strong. And the match is Dortmund's home match. Dortmund managed to draw 2-2 in the last home match against Munich. Also another important point is that Bayern Munich lost 2-1 against FC Saarbrucken in today's match. However, the Gopher Pokal match is not very important for Munich. But the defeat against Saarbrucken was embarrassing. And so I'd say if they don't perform carefully against Dortmund, Munich have a chance to lose this match too.

Barcelona is going to face Real Sociedad soon and this game is very important for Xavi and his players. Since Barcelona has a hard race this season with other top teams like Girona, Atletico Madrid, and Real Madrid, losing any point in this game can cause this team to have trouble in the future.
I think Xavi will try hard to win this match because they got 24 points so far and there is a four-point gap between them and Real Madrid.


Barcelona will still win against Real Sociedad because even from there possibility of win, Barcelona have a better chance of winning. And Xavi will putting all attacking force to win. Because gradually Barcelona is following back on the table they need to win to get additional point, since they are four points behind real Madrid. Aside real Madrid, Girona performance is always scary and am always scared of them because sincerely does guys are good.

Truly Barcelona can not afford to loose points, if they do it will be more difficult to get back on track. A good opportunity to make up for the games they have lost so go luck to Xavi.

Barcelona's performance is now quite erratic. In the last match they lost against Madrid. Barcelona have won only two of their last five matches. And at the moment the team is at the fourth place in the points table. Barcelona is 4 points behind Real Madrid. And so Barcelona has no option to win against Real Sociedad in the next match.

Sociedad is not a weak team. The fifth team in the points table is now Sociedad. Sociedad's players have the ability to perform well against big teams. That's why it won't be easy for Barcelona to get 3 points. The match will be competitive. Xavi will definitely have to find a way to beat the Sociedad team.

Have not we are telling people this over the years? though it is not completely the same but the thought is almost and that is "invest what you can afford to lose"

from my own perspective , as how i see market from those years , the smaller we started is the bigger we may gain in each bullrun.
that's a strange statement. how can someone who invests a little end up making more money? If the world worked in this upside down way, why are there still poor people? You'd think that if your theory was right, poor folks would get rich by applying it.

Big investors still make big profits, but they also carry big risks. setting a maximum amount of money you can afford to lose is a sound concept. Beyond that, it's all about taking your own risks. No one's going to show mercy if you lose, and no one's going to promote you when you make a profit.

Expecting bitcoin to increase thousands or millions of times like before is impossible, everything has changed so we cannot expect that with just a small investment in bitcoin we can big profit from it. Bitcoin will help us earn significant profits from our investment, but it cannot help us become rich with just a small amount of capital.

This is the financial market and no one can help anyone because if we let them win, we will be the losers. The market is like a battlefield, we should keep this in mind before investing in bitcoin or any other financial market.

No doubt about the fact that Bellingham has been exceptionally in Madrid since he came, but one thing I will like to point out is the fact that, hence a player is in Madrid, there are lots of benefits, because the club is made up of stars, there are lots of players available to do the dirty job for you,  so the attackers can deliver. If Bellingham was in Sevilla or Real Sociedad, the bim light wouldn't have been so focused on him even though he is performing. So most times, being in a big club gives you leverage as a player.
It is also great to see that other players have make it much more comfortable for him in order to adjust into his new club. Usually it is very hard for a new player to adjust at a big club in complete other league and adjust to the new life. But it seems that other players have been helping Bellingham a lot on the pitch and off the pitch as well. This are types of things which can really help a new player develop a lot faster and we are watching it in case of Bellingham right now. Great to see Bellingham having his time at Madrid right now.

Bellingham is a great player, we have to admit. He is completely new to La Liga. The players need a lot of time to adjust to the new league and the new squad. But we have seen a great performance from Bellingham since his first match in Madrid jersey. And Bellingham has become the most important player in the Madrid squad at the moment. Without Bellingham, Madrid's squad is pretty weak right now. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bellingham is the top scorer in La liga this season. Bellingham scored 10 goals in 10 matches in La liga.

New Zealand are bowling first after winning the toss. Tim Southee comes in for Lockie Ferguson. Kagiso Rabada replaces Tabraiz Shamsi. NewZealand won toss and elected to bowl first. Both team 1 changes in the playing XI for both New Zealand and South Africa. South Africa Kagiso Rabada replaces Tabraiz Shamsi and from Tim Southee takes the place of Lockie Ferguson. I think South Africa will score 400 runs if the openiors partnership is successful
I do not think so that in today's match South Africa squad successfully will made a 400 score defending target because their opponent squad also very strong team New Zealand. It was a right decision of New Zealand squad to won toss and invite South Africa squad come in crease and start batting inning. New Zealand bowler Trent Boult has picked up the wicket of South Africa's leader Temba Buvama. This batter got out after making 24 scores and then finished. Currently, two big and powerful batter is playing in crease and if these batters will not catch up by any bowler of New Zealand squad then South Africa squad set a 300 plus score defending target to New Zealand.
South Africa gave a target of 358 runs to New Zealand in the 32nd match of World Cup.South Africa played very well especially De kock and Van der dussen.De kock made excellent 114 runs in just 116 balls and Van der dussen performed 133 runs in only 118 balls. These two players well  contributed in this match to stand a big score ,these players are in good form and South African team is present on the 2nd number in points table of World Cup and After winning this match, South African team will be at the top of points table.This is not small target and New Zealand score is 36 with fall of 1 wicket in 7.2 overs.Zew Zealand played excellent in last match but lose due to bad luck.
One more great victory of South Africa squad in today match by huge difference of defending target. Getting victory from this match now South Africa squad jump into first position in standings table by five victory from 6 matches and lose one match with 2.209 plus net run rate and total 12 points their team earned. There is the tough competition in between India squad and South Africa squad both teams show brilliance performances in all previous matches which they played. In today's match, Sounth Africa won this match due to thrilling performance of one of the opener batter Quinton de Kockand Rassie van der Dussen.

New Zealand was defeated by a huge margin. I can't imagine New Zealand losing by such a big margin. Despite losing the last two matches, both matches were very competitive. But in today's match we saw the dominance of South African players only. New Zealand's next match is against Pakistan. If New Zealand doesn't win this match too, they won't be able to finish fourth in the table. At the same time, we may soon see the Afghanistan team at the fourth place in the table. Afghanistan will play against the Netherlands in the next match. If Afghanistan wins this match by a big margin, the team will move to fourth place in the table.

from the story itself its clear that your financial management is indeed really bad, it definitely one of the thing that causes you to be so fragile financially, just few months in after getting fewer income you're already couldn't afford anything, its not really great for you in the long run.
the only way you can overcome this is to force yourself living frugally, exactly at this time when you are facing hard time, you will know what it means to live frugally take advantage to learn from it, so that when your income is making a come back, when everything is getting better you will find yourself easily manage your financial and become better than before.
even though its not as easy as said but still you still need to try it out honestly.

I think saving is enough, we don't need to live too frugally. Living frugally and being too strict with ourselves will make life more difficult and affect our health. The hardest thing is that we don't realize our problem, but in OP's case, he recognized his problem and it became easier to fix it. It's only when he doesn't recognize the problem that it's very difficult to fix.
Financial management is actually not too difficult, we just don't really want to do it, if we really want to save, there is nothing we cannot do.

Pakistan registered a comprehensive seven-wicket victory against Bangladesh, keeping their semi-finals hopes alive in this world cup 2023. Bangladesh has been eliminated from the tournament, as Pakistan win by seven wickets and 105 balls to spare. Fakhar Zaman receives the Match of the movement award After many failures, it's good to come back in form. Mohammad Rizwan and Iftikhar Ahmed give the finishing touches after brilliant knocks by the openers Fakhar zaman score 81 brilliant knock. Congratulations to Pakistan beat Bangladesh by 7 wickets to keep their hopes Alive in the tournament
It's a great performance by Pakistani players.  They showed their amazing performance in both sectors batting and bowling lineup. Specially if I say in the batting line-up Fakhar Zaman and Abdullah Shafique made a big partnership of 128 runs off 127 balls and contributed a lot to Pakistan winning this match. On the other hand Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Wasim, Haris Rauf showed great achievements though all Pakistan bowlers did well today. And if I talk about the Bangladesh team then Bangladesh has already been eliminated from this tournament. I see England and Bangladesh as the two worst-performing teams in this World Cup. Moreover, other teams such as the Netherlands have at least tried to fight with the team on the other side.

Pakistan team played very well today. They won one match after losing four matches in a row. Shaheen Sah Afridi and Haris Rouf destroyed Bangladesh's top order today. They bowled brilliantly. Apart from this, Mohammad Wasim also managed to pick up three wickets. Pakistan's bowling was controlled from the beginning of the innings. This is why they were able to stop the Bangladesh team for only 204 runs. And there was no chance of Bangladesh winning after such a low run target. Pakistan's two openers batted very responsibly. The team collected 128 runs from the first wicket pair. The performance of the Bangladeshi bowlers was not as good as expected today. However, after a win in this match, Pakistan have a slim chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. Looking forward to see how Pakistan performs in their next match against New Zealand.

It is a legal ponzi  Shocked  Roll Eyes

All the bankers are the top of the piramire and all outside of it are paying with inflation.

If it really is a ponzi and you think the government created it to scam you, you should stop using fiat and stay away from it. But if you continue to use it and still can't live without it, don't just talk bad about it.

Fiat has many disadvantages and cannot be compared to bitcoin. I know you're trying to say this, but there's no denying that we're still using fiat money every day, and today we couldn't survive without it. We should stop bad-mouthing it, because it's like when you go out with someone but still talk bad about them behind their back.

Fiat has limitations and we have bitcoin to overcome those limitations, but it is still essential to us, so what we need to do is balance the two.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: Almost All Countries Affected by Inflation, Opportunity for Bitcoin! on: October 31, 2023, 03:13:04 PM
The adoption of Bitcoin cannot bring about real changes for countries compared to the changes that can happen to individuals. The reason is that in the case of individuals, the economic problem can be solved with a few thousand or millions of dollars, but for countries, unless the internal economic problems and the balance of supply and demand are solved, it is not possible to build Bitcoin alone. To solve the problem, it is possible, in the best case scenario, to build a sovereign fund and invest Bitcoin in it, provided that the profits of this fund go toward development and that the government does not borrow from it.
There has been adoption of Bitcoin in El Salvador, but it does not appear to have changed as if it were done by individuals

The problem is that Bitcoin for some reason is considered by some as a "magic wand" - waved and the economy is booming ! But it's not. The idea that bitcoin has a limited emission, many people take it as a solution to the problem of inflation. But they do not realize that inflation is different, and not only because of the stupidity of the government, which simply prints new "wrappers", but also caused by real problems that can not be solved without additional emission.  And this is only the "tip of the iceberg" of reasons why additional emission may be necessary or why inflationary processes occur. People's belief in "easy solution" always leads to such groundless confidence.....

Bitcoin is a panacea to cure all diseases such as eradicating poverty, reducing unemployment, and saving a country's currency...I am waiting to see if people will nominate bitcoin to solve wars and bring peace to the world or not  Cheesy Cheesy.

Indeed, there are many causes of inflation, the uncontrolled printing of money by the Government is just a part of the iceberg, many people do not understand and can only blame the government's money printing. Simply put, managing and balancing supply and demand of an economy with billions of people is not easy. It's not as simple as us sitting here and criticizing everything.
32  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: October 31, 2023, 12:06:50 AM
Al Hilal are a team who are unbeaten so far this season. Out of 11 matches they won 9 matches and drew 2 matches. We have seen good performances from Al Hilal in every match. Mitrovic's excellent performance continued the team. If Neymar is in the club of Al Hilal. But so far he has not scored a single goal. The overall performance of the team is very strong. However, there is no chance to call the opponent Al Fateh team weak. This team is also very strong. They are unbeaten in their last four matches and currently sit fourth in the table. And so it will be difficult for Hilal to score 3 points in the match. But I believe Al Hilal will not make any mistakes. Al Hilal will win this match even if they don't win by a big margin.
AL Hilal will play away against Al Fateh indeed this will be a difficult match for Al Fateh to beat Al Hilal it will be very difficult but for Al Hilal the match is quite easy to withstand attacks ending the match in a draw like the previous match which I think is indeed Al Hilal has a pretty good strategy to strengthen its consistency when it is difficult to win a match, choosing to end the match in a draw and this is a very good club strategy so it is not surprising that Al Hilal has not been defeated because the defense is strong enough and the attack line is quite perfect.
In the upcoming match, I currently say that it is very likely that Al Fateh and Al Hilal will end the match in a draw.

I agree with you. Al Hilal's match strategy is fantastic. Al Hilal's players have been able to adapt themselves brilliantly to the coach's match strategy. This is why we are consistently getting good performances from Al Hilal. Considering the squad, Ittihad, Al Ahli and Al Nassr are stronger than Al Hilal. However, Al Hilal managed to hold on to the top spot in the table.
Al fateh team is in very good form. This is why it will be very difficult for AL Hilal to win the match. The match is likely to be a draw. But I think AL Hilal will win this match too and keep the top spot in the table.
33  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: October 30, 2023, 10:03:11 AM
The next match for Al Hihla in the Saudi Professional League is going to be against Al Fateh and just like the other matches we saw from Al Hilal recently, they got much higher chances and lower rates for the people who bet on Al Hial. Maybe the 1.35 is not high but it is worth it when we know this can be a safe bet and the chance of winning the bet is pretty high,



I will obviously pick al hilal instead of fateh. I do believe al hilal can easily win the game against al fateh. Mitrovic and savic are ready for that match. It will not become a tough game. Al hilal is now on the good shape at this moment.
That makes sense if al hilal will able to beat al fateh easily. The odds for Al Hilal are quite promising since they have a significant advantage in winning the game against Al Fateh. Neymar is no longer present in this place, and I have no intention of even attempting to keep track of him.
I would not try to take the risk by picking over 2.5 goals. The way Fateh has been playing has left me captivated, and there's a chance that they might pleasantly surprise us by delivering an outstanding performance against Al Hilal.
At present, al hilal must dedicate themselves to putting forth more effort in order to beat al fateh. Fateh was consistently winning the last 4 games. I think that if it's clear if hilal may win the game against fateh with narrow score.
Im not concerning how many goals to be made by hilal as long as it was going back with three points from fateh.

Maybe Al Hilal is quite the favorite in this match to be able to beat the hosts. But I still prefer that both teams will achieve a draw in this match because Al Fateh is playing in front of their supporters and they certainly don't want to lose points in front of their supporters. Moreover, the bookie gives pretty good odds for this match where choosing a draw might be more efficient. However, it depends on how they respond to this match with more accurate data to determine who will win this match.

Indeed, if you look at it for now, Al Hilal is one of the strongest teams in the Saudi Arabian league this season. They are quite strong with wins and wins and also very dominating wins in their H2H encounters. But I'm sure both teams will play a draw in this match by sharing 1 point.

Al Hilal are a team who are unbeaten so far this season. Out of 11 matches they won 9 matches and drew 2 matches. We have seen good performances from Al Hilal in every match. Mitrovic's excellent performance continued the team. If Neymar is in the club of Al Hilal. But so far he has not scored a single goal. The overall performance of the team is very strong. However, there is no chance to call the opponent Al Fateh team weak. This team is also very strong. They are unbeaten in their last four matches and currently sit fourth in the table. And so it will be difficult for Hilal to score 3 points in the match. But I believe Al Hilal will not make any mistakes. Al Hilal will win this match even if they don't win by a big margin.

~~~
Without a doubt, Barcelona dominated the first half and had little time in the second half they dominated. the game velocity changed when Modric was introduced in the match to play for Real Madrid. That feature of Modric performance alone scattered Barcelona's playing pattern. And it changes the atmosphere of the match for Real Madrid to make a comeback and win through Bellingham.
I never believed that the Real Madrid team could later end up winning over Barcelona due to how they started in the first half
Barcelona failed to maintain their victory, in my opinion this is quite natural considering that several of their players are still injured. Losing Pedri and De Jong in midfield disrupted the stability of their game, of course Real Madrid managed to take advantage of this, especially in the second half. Barcelona played well in the first half, but I regretted several substitutions which ultimately disrupted the rhythm of their game.
Joao Cancelo played well, as did Joao Felix. Gavi and Fermin are also good, but when some of these players are replaced they are completely different. Romeu made several mistakes which ultimately disrupted Barcelona's defense, but this was a valuable lesson for Xavi and he should not repeat it in another match. Sometimes you have to keep the same players throughout the match instead of taking them out, which is what Pep Guardiola did in the Champions League in order to maintain the same rhythm of play.
Barcelona actually didn't play too badly, it's just that they couldn't maintain their composure until the end of the match and they were unlucky because they didn't have a good finishing touch in this match. I think Barcelona played more dominantly in the first half, but this condition changed when Real Madrid played more aggressively in the second half (especially after Camavinga entered the field) and this disrupted Barcelona's rhythm. It was clear that when the match entered the final minutes, Barcelona seemed to lose their concentration, and their defense line often made mistakes.

You are right, It cannot be said that Barcelona performed poorly in this match. Their performance was good. But they were unlucky. Otherwise they would not have been defeated in this match. Because Real Madrid scored their second goal after 90 minutes. Madrid played well but they were also very lucky.
It is becoming increasingly difficult for Barcelona to win the title. Barcelona team is currently 4 points behind Real Madrid. As the Madrid team has been consistently performing well, it will not be easy for Barcelona to reduce the gap of 4 points. Barcelona will have to perform more carefully in the upcoming matches.
35  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: October 29, 2023, 02:20:13 AM
Indeed, this is the first match in this world cup which was very much competitive. South Africa managed to win it finally. Pakistan was unlucky as some decisions went against them at the final stage. The LBW out wasn't given for umpires call. And the umpires have declared a delivery as wide while the ball touched the pad of Tabraiz Shamsi. Pakistani bowlers did well in the last few overs of the match.
Paksitan played thier wao cricket but unable to divert results towards them, no doubt it's the worst ever world cup for paksitan because here firstly paksitan lose 4 consecutive match for a first time in world cup history second they lose against those team for first time who never won a single match in ODI world Cup against them and now southafrica won thier first ODI world match against them for the first time in 20th century which mean such world cup is becomes horrible dream for them because all unexpected things happend against them at same time. Also if umpire does a wrong decision again Russie then he should be more careful for Shami because it's the right decision if he took but unfortunately he goes with two bad decision which is unexcepted.

The situation in Pakistan is very bad now. The performance of their batsmen is erratic. But the important thing is that the performance of Pakistan's bowlers is also poor. This is the reason why Pakistan team has been defeated in four consecutive matches. Winning the first two matches makes Pakistan 4 points from 6 matches. And they are sixth in the table. Pakistan team is 4 points behind Australia. And Pakistan have no chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. Pakistan's next match is against Bangladesh. Bangladesh's performance is even weaker. It is expected that Pakistan team can win against Bangladesh in the next match.
36  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: October 28, 2023, 04:29:00 PM
Chelsea have shown an interest in signing Barcelona midfielder Gavi for £87 million:
Chelsea, have expressed an interest in signing midfielder Gavi, whom Barcelona could sell for £87 million to ease their financial woes. Gavi is one of the youngest players at Barcelona, and he makes a playing space in one of the best clubs in modern football, which is Barcelona. In which it could be difficult for a young player to take a regular place for X11. By selling Gavi for £87 million, Barcelona wanted to ease their financial troubles.
I think it is not fair for Barcelona to sell him for financial troubles. Because he is a very talented and creative young midfielder. While it would be very good for Chelsea to sign him with a low transfer fee given his expected young age, It will not be a good step for Barcelona to sell him because he is educated in La Masia and purely set for the tactics of Barcelona. Any way, it will be good for Barcelona to sell him to financial critics or not. What did you think, guys? Give us your thoughts.
Source
It's fair enough. Barcelona got what they wanted and chelsea too. Chelsea paid a lot of money for him to to the barcelona and then barcelona got huge sum amounts of money as the return. It's a win win solution. Barcelona shall not expect to get good amounts of money if the club was not willing to sell its stars. There's no club that was willing to buy some garbage players like fati or ferran. The blaufrana can't force its buyers to buy the available players to be sold. Chelsea was aiming for the specific players to be recruited which is good.

I would like to see what's going to be barcelona's response regarding this rumor. I think that barcelona may also change its mind regarding it. Barcelona is in a very difficult situation this time. The club really needs money caused by it must have paid its responsibilities caused by barcelona still owe a lot of money from other clubs. Barcelona is very close to the date to pay its debts to other clubs. Barcelona still owe some money from buying its players like lewandowski.

That's why barcelona needs to sell some players to cover it. I see no reason for barcelona to keep gavi even longer. The club in the needs of money.

First of all, I do not think Barcelona should be interested in selling him. Because he is an important player for Barcelona. He can provide a lot of value to Barcelona. And that value is definitely going to be more than 87 million euros. If Barcelona is actually interested in selling him, I will say that they should sell him for a lot more than what Chelsea is offering them. They have to at least get more than €110 million. Otherwise Barcelona should keep him because he's going to give them a lot of value going forward. if they sell him, they will have to eventually buy another player. That is not going to be a good financial decision.

Newcastle are the most inexperienced team in this group. However, their performance surprised everyone. They won by a big margin against PSG. They shared points with Milan. Newcastle team performed very well in two matches.
Maybe what Newcastle means is a team that doesn't have as much experience as other teams, which often appears in the UCL, while Newcastle have only played in the UCL this season. Newcastle It really surprised everyone, even from the start, many said that Newcastle would be the key judge in the group, but now Milan are at the bottom of the rankings and they haven't even won.


Newcastle team is inexperienced but their performance is good. The team does not have star players in its squad. However, due to the good understanding between the players, they are able to consistently perform well. Also, Newcastle coach Eddie Howe is a very good coach. He knows his squad's weaknesses well and tailors his match strategy accordingly. And that's why Newcastle's performance despite their inexperience is so good. It is no surprise that this team qualified for the knockout round. Newcastle have this capability.

With the help of Luis Enrique, PSG is slowly getting stronger. Their squad is not very strong this season. Still, Enrique is doing his best to keep PSG's performance stable. And I believe Enriqu will succeed. Enrique's team will be at the top of the group. It is difficult to make predictions about the Dortmund team. Although this team is quite strong, their performances are quite erratic. Despite playing well against Newcastle, their performance against PSG was very poor.
Luis Enrique learned from his mistakes in the previous match when they lost to Newcastle but Enrique continued to improve so he could beat Milan. Indeed, Enrique's influence at PSG is very strong, he is also good at building team spirit, PSG will continue to look for wins to remain group champions to avoid strong teams in the round of 16.

You are right, With Luis Enrique, PSG's players are more confident. The PSG team is not very strong this season. Attacking performance is dependent on Mbappe. At the same time, the performance of PSG's defense is erratic. If Enrique is able to tighten up PSG's defense, I think PSG's overall gameplay will be stronger. I am quite optimistic about the PSG team. This team will be able to qualify for the semi-finals.

Every team still has a chance to secure a ticket to the round of 16. But I think Milan will not participate in this competition. They are fully focused on Serie A at the moment. Their main target is the Serie A title this season. Despite poor performances in the Champions League, the team has continued to perform well in Serie A.
Predictions about Dortmund and Newcastle are difficult. The Dortmund team is strong. However, their performance is quite erratic. I am sure PSG will secure the round of 16 from the top of the table. Now, although the Newcastle team can perform well enough, this team is not very experienced in the Champions League. Whether they will be able to do well in the upcoming matches of the Champions League cannot be said for sure. So Dortmund team seems more likely to finish second in the table.
Dortmund, PSG and Milan are teams that have experience in the Champions League compared to Newcastle. Their mentality is good even though they always have difficulty qualifying for the final, but I really think that Newcastle are the underdogs in this group.
If the points obtained are a reference for analyzing who will qualify, then Milan will certainly lose to the other 3 teams. But if experience is the benchmark, then Milan has a good chance of coming back and winning several of the next 3 matches. Milan is not completely focused on Serie A because basically they also want to reach the highest point in the Champions League. I don't agree with that assumption because they are still in the group stage. The opportunity is there, it just depends on how they take advantage of it.

Two points achievement in last three matches make Milan hasn't much choose for qualifying to the next round indeed have two home matches and one away match against Newcastle United. Bad started for Milan in Champion League without winning one match until playing three matches, next opponent is PSG and not sure for Milan will get three pounts or give opportunity for Dortmund or Newcastle United for qualifying to the next round.
Looking current standing teams, two points gap its not huge problem and Milan chance still open for qualidying to next round as 2nd standing position, but in three matches left they win two or three matches and looking for Dortmund and Newcastle have loss their points.
Considering that there are still 3 matches each team will play, the opportunity to qualify for the round of 16 is still open. It's just that Milan is starting to be doubted about qualifying after 3 bad results, but we never know for sure who will get that ticket even though it seems like PSG and Dortmund have a good chance between Newcastle and Milan.

I still believe Milan or Newcastle can win at least 6 points in the group stage in the next 3 matches, that means they have to beat each other regardless of whether Milan wins against Newcastle, PSG and Dortmund or vice versa. PSG have a big chance and I'm not sure they will fail to qualify this season.

Betting Odds

South Africa - 1.56
Pakistan - 2.496

Do you guys think Pakistan can win today?
Surprising. Most of the sportsbooks still believe that this match will be competitive, with only a slight edge to South Africa. I am not sure. But then, South Africa went down heavily to Netherlands in their only defeat in this tournament so far. And they have a reputation as the eternal chokers (something that is shared with Pakistan as well). The only negative that I could say about South Africa is that they are overdependent on a few players. Some of the batsmen, including Temba Bavuma and Rassie van der Dussen are not contributing at all.
Pakistan can make a comeback and that is why they are called an unpredictable side. Another factor would be South Africa getting beaten earlier by the Netherlands. Pakistan was able to chase a big target in the match with Sri Lanka. These might be the factors why the odds are only giving a little edge to the South African team today.

My guess about this match is if South Africa bat first then Pakistan won't win. South African batsmen are in very good form. If the team bats first they will be able to give a target of more than 350. And the chances of Pakistan winning by batting on such a big target is very low. If Pakistan get to bat first and can set a target of 320 then they have a chance to win. South Africa is a very strong team in this World Cup. The performance of their batsmen impressed everyone. If you want to win against such a team, the batsmen as well as the Pakistani bowlers must do well. In the last match we saw a poor performance by the Pakistani bowlers. Looking forward to see Pakistan bowlers prove themselves today.
