Too much power in a single hands can be abused and am sure that's what is playing out in Al Nassr. Al-Sheikh that's criticizing Ronaldo influence on the affairs of the club is nothing but a talkative that is simply trying to gain attention besides what has he(Al-Sheikh) contributed to the Saudi league. I also want to believe that Ronaldo has not in any way abused his powers as alleged. The Portuguese star is gradually doing whatever he could for the overall best interest of his club and the entire Saudi league. The Saudi league is what it is today because of Ronaldo. I think Ronaldo has done more good than any players has ever done for the Saudi league. Today the Saudi league is making a lot of money only because Ronaldo is still playing for Al Nassr. Let's just allow Cristiano Ronaldo to build his team to a greater heights and for the greater good.
Al Nassr management doesn't have a problem. So does Cristiano Ronaldo. So I am surprised with all the comments from others, who have an issue here. The reason why Ronaldo wanted a greater say in club affairs was due to issues in coaching and team management. He had issues with the previous coach, under whose management the team performed well below the expectations. Anyway, Ronaldo is already 40 years old, so at the most he will play for another two years at Al Nassr before retiring.
Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: World Cup Qualifiers - CAF.
if you followed up on the media briefing the super falcons players granted regarding their preparation against Morocco, it is clear that none of them underrated the Moroccan team. of cause, most of our wins has been sort of a scrappy win but then, in a final, things don't always go in Favour of the team that has everything all figured out. games might just take a turn most of us never anticipated and in the end, anyone can emerge the winner. as much as we all want to see the super falcons lift the trophy, the fact is that they are going to face an opposition that will not let them lay hands on the trophy too easily. we have won it more than any other African country is not a criterion to winning it again. for us to win it again, we need to go into the finals and play like we want it more.
You totally have a point here. The difference between champions and an average team is the desire to keep winning even when you have won such a trophy before. You're right. The Falcons would have no one to blame but themselves if they let themselves slack and allow their Moroccan counterparts collect the title. It has been a hard fought battle between these two teams in their various groups and getting to this point shows that they are the best out of the lot and despite the fact that there are two big teams playing the final, only one would emerge the overall winner and the Super falcons coach was heard saying that it would be a big disappointment of they can't lift this trophy since they have come so far. Morocco on the other hand who are the hosts would want to make not just their country proud but at least it would be a thing of personal pride for them to have stopped the 9 time WAFCON winners from making it their 10th.

The Super falcons are really Super and fantastic, on and off the pitch they’ve shown that are great people, they showed great love and support for their opponent player, South African Gabriela Salgado who got injured in their last semifinal match. She had undergone a successful surgery for her leg, and the Falcons visited her with a signed Nigerian Jersey.
Good work by the Ladies, doing good on and off the pitch. Wishing the SA player Gabriella Salgado a quick recovery and to the falcons I say bring the cup home.
From my expectations, next season may be one of the toughest seasons we have seen due to the level of preparations most of the major teams are making. I only wish Manchester United or Chelsea had purchased Victor Osimhen, that would have fortified their attach and make them ready to enjoy his scoring prowess. I equally feel bad for Liverpool who lost of their key player, Diego and I hope they will be able to compete actively and try to retain the league title.
Seriously next season will be a tough and interesting one, I will say we shouldn’t underestimate any club right now, every club are signing players just to improve their performance. we all can see how Liverpool, Manchester city, Chelsea and Arsenal are busy in the transfer market signing players which they believe will improve the teams performance. With the signing that Chelsea are making right now, I will say they will be more aggressive by next season, no team will be underestimating them by next season. Seriously it’s just kind of difficult to predict who will be winning the premier league title by next season, I have the feelings that Liverpool might win it again, but am not just confident about that. Here are some information am able to gather after going through a search on the most gambling countries in Africa, am surprised at what i saw, to my greatest surprise, Nigeria being the least among other countries in Africa being listed, when i thought in terms of population and the likes should be the lead, many other underdeveloped countries and having more severe economy problem to have made their citizen found gambling as an alternative to livelihood, because i expected that Nigeria should still leading, which means, in Africa, We are far more better in many aspect.

looking at the chart I have seen that one thing that is contributing to this high rate of gambling is the bad shape of the economies of these countries so people has seen gambling as a way out of their financial problems https://www.geopoll.com/blog/report-betting-in-africa-2024/
Modric is a great asset for the club, in fact I wouldn't have let Modric leave Madrid , but Madrid's management want to keep their money and they respect that, so given these things the best thing is what happens, and now AC Milan have a great Midfielder who will surely bring good news to their team, there is no doubt about that, for me AC Milan will be in one of the best teams in Italy.
Great players have come and gone from Real Madrid, Luka Modric wasn't the first and wouldn't be the last. Real Madrid needed energy and strength likewise more game time for the younger players hungry for success. I will not be so happy about their midfield at the moment, we will wait to assess them. I know that Max Allegri sees Luka Modric like the new Pirlo. One thing is certain Modric will succeed in the Seria A.
Getting flogged by Flamengo U21 a few days ago was just a prelude of what is to come. Xhaka knows Leverkusen is finished with ETH at the club, and that's why he wants out before it's too late. Another thing is that he's not fighting to move to a bigger club, as most players would do. He's fighting to go to Sunderland, which Leverkusen is obviously bigger than. That tells me he's desperate about leaving and does not want to stick around when the ship starts sinking.
Yet another set of fans raging their anger on Erik Ten Hag after this loss, this time around it is the issue of Xhaka, who said he is leaving because he sees the ship sinking? Xhaka might have his major reason with why he has been looking for a way out of a club which necessarily doesn’t mean they have to be top clubs or because the club is sinking. Xhaka might be going away most probably because his contract is coming to an end and the club isn’t ready to actually offer him new contract and that’s why he is seriously hunting for new club and with his age there is limited clubs that would require his service.
As for Ten Hag except people that hold him high contempt that will be judging him already. Ten Hag is the manager and he was the best to me in all of the available then. People will judge base on past experience with Manchester United but they fail to understand that even at Manchester united which was predicted to be his worst job so far he still won trophies there
Says who? Even Jose Mourinho that was very strict still had players rushing to play for him whenever he's in the transfer window looking for a player. If you're referring to Sancho's case them it's justified cause even after Ten Hag left the recent coach doesn't want him in the team which means there's something wrong with the player and not Ten Hag, even before Ten Hag arrived the previous coach complained of his attitude.
Europa League is always unpredictable in the beginning and it's only at the last quarter of the season that you will be able to have a glimpse of which club will make it to the finals. Tottenham was the least expected last season to win the league because of their poor performance in their domestic league. Fortunately, they were able to win it despite their poor form. Let's not be fast to decide who will win the league next season.
Just like last season the expectations where high on the bigger team jut like it was two seasons ago that these teams were even seen as favourite for the trophy but in th end the least expected team happened to win the trophy, so it is always better not to jump into conclusions about a team probably because of their initial performance or their known strength and depth. A team can actually be performing poorly in their domestic league only to do even better in the europa and sometimes it is possible these teams may just be lucky and push up there and then you find them almost winning the trophy maybe because they have put in all their energy that due to their expectations from there. 
Manchester United are desperately looking for a number 9 that can help them lead the attack, from how they have been roaming around the transfer market it doesn't look like they are settling for any attacker as in a world class striker... It seems they have these two players on their radar for some time now, so who's best to lead Manchester United attack judging by their stats of last season... Nicolas Jackson or Benjamin Šeško?
Still better than Jackson in creating chances and converting it to goal, instead of signing Jackson I think Manchester United should sign sesko to avoid making the same mistake they made in signing mount
For the fact that Real Madrid is one of the most experienced teams in the Champions League, we can’t always leave them out of the favorite teams to win the title because they are always among the favorites, if not the favorites. But with what they played last season and in the Club World Cup, I think many things have changed about the team, the same as the mentality; the Champions League mentality is not there anymore because they were disgraced by Arsenal last season and also PSG in the Club World Cup. For them to be among teams to be considered as favorites, they need to sign more players and improve their performance.
The Club World Cup was not an important trophy. Even then we expected that the psg vs Madrid match to be competitive. But Realmadrid conceded two goals early in the match due to the defenders' fault. And later on, they could not make a comeback. I saw that the players' morale was completely broken.
Real Madrid's players have the ability to perform well. every player in the squad is very talented. Nevertheless, if they want to perform well consistently , the players must be fit and they must be confident. If the players are not confident, it is not possible to get good results against big teams. Alonso is a talented coach, Madrid's squad is also strong. So we all expect Madrid to do well in the Champions League next season.
Rashford is 27 years old and can still play very well. The Englishman has the quality to be a player on a team of Barcelona's caliber. I find his transfer very logical for Barcelona. Marcus Rashford can't wait to play for Barcelona. How could he not? Many players dream of wearing that jersey. I hope he can succeed at Barça.
I have seen Rashford wanted to come to Barcelona before. However, Barcelona was not interested in buy Rashford. But this season Barcelona took Rashford on loan. They did not have to spend a big amount of money to added Rashford to the squad.
It is certain that Rashford will get very few opportunities in Barcelona Starting XI. But if Rashford can prove his ability, he can well adapt himself to the Barcelona squad, then Barcelona will be interested in buying Rashford in the future. And Barcelona may consider Rashford as Lewandowski's replacement. Because Barcelona's deal with Lewa will end next season. Barcelona will have to try to find a worthy replacement of Lewandowski from this season.
He has good speed and dribbling but the problem is whether he will be able to immediately be able to prove himself with Barcelona's conditions which are now still thick with short passes which he had difficulty getting in the EPL especially at the club he defended last season.
This is actually a challenge for Rashford but if indeed he succeeds in giving the best performance then the popularity and career that had previously declined will certainly be restored in an instant as long as he can adapt well and can prove himself when given the opportunity.
I have seen exactly this somewhere before that the rich people are less addicted to gambling. I think this is because they are gambling not to make money, unlike someone that is not rich. I have seen people that are not rich going to a betting shop before betting on parley with little amount of money like $1 for odds of over 10 to 1000x. They will keep doing this and they will keep losing. Rich men will not think like this because they will likely not expect luck like people that are not rich. Also rich people have sources of income that is right for them which will let them not think of gambling as one.
This is actually a fact, although there are rich people that are addicted to gambling but they can't be compared to the percentage of poor people that are addicted and the reason is because rich people don't chase wins or Profit when gambling, they just do it to entertain themselves. Poor people on the other hand get more addicted to Gambling because they try to make it a source of income or a way to get rich
Osimhen is a truly high-quality player, far above the Turkish Super League. Galatasaray was keen to acquire him, and I think that was perfectly reasonable, but the money they would spend on him could create a major financial crisis. Therefore, his transfer carries a significant risk, but I believe it's acceptable because I'm confident the Nigerian striker will perform very well again this year.
I know that Galatasaray took a great risk that can affect their finance by entering into a huge contract just to sign Victor Osimhen but sometimes money do not really matter so far as the player can still maintain same level of energy that made the club to sign him. Osimhen is a great striker that is envied by many clubs, he knows that Galatasaray have sacrificed a lot just to secure him, i don't think he will let the team down because he will continue to make sure that they don't regret signing him after a perfect performance on the loan deal, now he is fully a Turkish league player which means that the league will become so lively and interesting to watch because they got one of the best strikers in the world namely Victor Osimhen. Some people likes to allocate more than 10% of their salary to gambling,
On a personal level , I think it is too much money to allocate 10%, for me it is too much because it is representative, however, if you Want to Get things based on a %, you should do it with less, for example 3% and so divide it in two days until at least 6%, which is not bad , but of Course if you can afford to allocate that, well, because your salary must be High.Re: Usyk - Dubois Rematch July 19 Undisputed Heavyweight, Wembley, London
Speculating on what's next for Usyk, I've just read that the order of claims (order of which boxing organisations can demand Usyk to defend the title against a mandatory contender) is:
1 - WBO
2 - WBA
3 - WBC
4 - IBF
So there will be pressure on Usyk to either fight Parker or vacate the WBO belt, as I don't think the WBO would agree to defer it if Usyk decided to fight someone else.
Belts are one thing and money is another. In terms of profitability, Usyk has better-paying options than fighting Parker. Tyson Fury has already announced his willingness for a trilogy. AJ would be happy to do that too, and there's even an option for a freak-fight against Jake Paul, who somehow was allowed in the ring at Wembley after Usyk KO'd Dubois.
For now I don't see any boxer that can take on usyk paker is one boxer that we have seen but truth be told paker don't stand a chat against usyk whether compulsory match or not usyk is going to win I see usyk holding on to these titles for a long time with the current challengers that am seeing because they don't pose a threat to usyk at this very point in time 1 - WBO
2 - WBA
3 - WBC
4 - IBF

Eight-time European champions Germany were eliminated in the semifinals. The match ended in a 0-0 draw in normal time. Bonmati scored a stunning goal in the second half of extra time to give her team a 1-0 lead. Goalkeeper Berger missed the goal and conceded.
Spain has advanced to the European Championship final for the first time in its history. The final will be between England and Spain.
Spain is my favorite.

Both semi-finals went to Extra time and neither of them to penalties which I kinda hoped for both games
but I'm glad Spain qualified tonight and I also hope they will be able to beat England and lift the trophy. If they do it , Spain will be Euro champions at both Men and Women which will be pretty impressive and hard to equalize in the future. 
Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: World Cup Qualifiers - CAF.
That being said, it's straight up to the finals I am seeing the Falcons reach. No teams will stop them on the way without them reaching their destination(to lift the Women's Africa Cup Nations, if probably)
The correct expression is that you will be witnessing Falcons play against Morocco in the final. The Falcons defeated South Africa women yesterday, the match was closely drawn to a draw but thankfully our player was able to change the output of the match, a long cross finding its way inside the net, now we have the chance of bringing the trophy home if we can beat Morocco.There is no slot game that is easy that will give you winning like that you can get winning from any slot game it all depends on how consistent that you play it because the more you play a slot game the more you understand it which will help to improve your chances of winning because slot games are programmed which is difficult to win
At least the top six teams have shown their interest for the up coming 2025/2026 English premier League campaign and they have all done well in the transfer market they've all made some great signings, now the question is who will wear the crown? Liverpool arsenal and Chelsea have all gone head to head in signing some real good players and at least Chelsea signings have some how shown their credibility in the just passed FIFA club world cup and no doubt Liverpool and Arsenal have made a good singing too on Florian wirkt and Victor gyokeres, I think these two have a great season in the just passed campaign now let's keep in touch and see how it goes.
I don't know exactly why people aren't rating Manchester City or is it because they didn't go for high competitive players this season. Before the drop down in performance Manchester City only made headlines when they sold some of their best and I think the team turn out to be the best that season and the fact that they are quiet this season is enough reason for them to be dangerous even this season, their silent shouldn't be ignore completely.
I'm particularly invested in what Chelsea is going to do this season. The Fifa club world cup has made them become something we didn't expect and now that they are everywhere, the fans automatically thinks that they have arrived but Premier league has proven that to be wrong, unless the entire teams in the Premier League are not ready or doesn't care about where they stand this season, no way Chelsea is going to be at the top of the table this season for long.
