Re: UEFA Europa League 2025/26 Season

The reason why English clubs have not been doing well in the Europa League is that they have been tactically good enough when going to Europe for some times now and so they got knocked out when it gets to the knockout stages of the competition, last season I can say that it was even due to luck that both Manchester United and Tottenham got to the finals this is because other teams too where not that informed
What does this even mean?
They are not doing well in the Europa League because they are doing well and and those two got into the finals because the other teams were not informed the matches were played and they missed them, or what?Huh  Grin
I think English teams will do a lot better when it comes to this time, and that is an important part. So there is a good idea that they are not doing greatly in general, when you look at it, but usually the problem is that they are playing way too many games. Because we are talking about teams that play 50+ games outside of UEFA already, and then they end up playing more there, they end up with 60+ games a season every season.

Between premier league, and EFL, caraboa, FA whatever and all that, they end up with so many games and they end up getting tired. So they end up with players who are beyond fatigued at the end and that would not be an easy decision for them. We have to realize it is not an easy thing to play that many games.

Re: Will the under developed nations come out of its under development?

This is exactly what it means for a country to experience development they must be more of a producing nation than an importing nation because depending on what other countries produce can only cripple the economy of the country it doesn't add to the GDP of the nation. The underdeveloped countries are used as dumping grounds for the developed and the developing countries that is why you see most of the underdeveloped countries finding it difficult to think of things they need to produce to attract other investors from investing in their country or buying things from them and it keeps them from getting into debt because they have nothing to sell to develop their economy.
While that is what it means, these days every nation makes a debt, it is not unheard of. The trick is to get debt enough to pay off in the future. Well, a billion dollars can be paid today right? Let's say you are a nation who has to pay a billion dollars, you can either pay that now, or can pay that in 10 years, isn't that better? Due to inflation and using that for growth, you could do better.

This is why it's smarter to just make sure that you are dealing with something much better in the future easier to pay. That is what most nations needs to do, and I think that's the best way. I get that some make more than they should, like USA, who has debts beyond what they can pay, that is not the way, that will be bad for them.

I did this with vacation once. There are many ways that you can use it, I also bought a website once as well. These are all great stuff and definitely ends up with great results. We should be considering how this is a great way to return and make some money, it is not that bad and I like spending it. I know that people dislike spending it and that is the most obvious issue, because we are facing a lot of people who just wants to invest and hold and never part ways until they sell.

When in reality, crypto is also a spending thing, a currency, so we should definitely look at it as a currency at times too. I am not saying we should only spend, we should definitely consider how things could change and be better on the long run.

Before the season started i was seeing Manchester City as title contenders but after watching their match against Tottenham last week where they lost and also watching them lose against Brighton today, i do not see them as title contenders anymore. Pep Guardiola's era is ended and from how the team performed today, they don't have that driving force for victories. Brighton's win was not born out of luck, it was a complete efforts from the team that got them the win because coming from a goal behind and winning a game cannot be considered as luck, if Brighton's players were reluctant when they were losing by one goal do you think that Manchester City wouldn't have scored another goal.
It's early days in this season just because of these things are not as expected big teams are facing problems Manchester City conceded 4 goals in 2 games with able to score just 1 goal is terrible from them. This defeat is surely setback because with this now their confidence level is almost at lowest level, but good thing now Premier League is having break, and they can think about their future strategy which will allow them to bounce back from this bad period.

Today in another game, West Ham also fights back handed big defeat to home team Nottingham Forest which is surprising currently the biggest game of Super Sunday underway Liverpool hosting Arsenal after 30 minutes nothing happen.

In recent games, Bayern Munich has proven themselves as the strong team with their dominance in matches and the new recruit professional players, but their match against Wehen Wiesbaden was a dramatic one to watch. I've noticed in Bayern's last two games, they have conceded goals which is not supposed to be so for a team with such a high prospect and with the belief on their intention of winning the European trophy this season.

it really shows their inconsistency in matches; I must say, with their current squad, I don't think they're supposed to concede goals that way in a single match. However, Bayern Munich is still the favourite to carry their domestic cup again this season but that shouldn't be their main pursuit anyway.
Bayern Munich is not only in Bundesliga they are one of the best club in UEFA due to their competitiveness and aggressive approach in all events their start of this season is clearly indicating how things will be gone in this season.

At Augsburg in first half they were in complete control but second half bring some problems in defense which are surely going to be had trouble for them in big games they needed to be keep checking and have their best otherwise this could be not easy task for them in coming days their attack is showing great depth, but their defense is suddenly having troubling time as they conceded two goals which give them alarming situation for big games which are going to be held after this break.

From the Real Madrid matches I've watched, they've struggled with scoring. Given the little time Xabi Alonso has been with this team, I expected him to have developed a better pattern by now. I feel it's getting too late. Because if they play a strong team, the excuse that Xabi Alonso is still trying to fix the team won't be accepted by the management and fans. Especially now that the Champions League is about to start, and the challenges there are different from those in La Liga. Mallorca's defense was too solid for Real Madrid to penetrate, which I didn't expect to be such a challenge. The main problem for Real Madrid is midfield coordination.
After having good win in last game against newly promoted side R. Oviedo I was also expecting good number of goals which is much needed at this time, but sadly they were not playing as they needed and have the good number of goals.

Early goal from Mallorca bring some pressure and excitement in this game, but good comeback from Real Madrid make things balanced in second half Mallorca done good work but sadly fail to break deadlock. Confidence increasing which is always good Xabi Alonso working good on youngsters which are bringing good depth in team hopefully they will be much better and stronger in coming days with few weeks left in UEFA Champions League.

Bayern Leverkusen have sold their best players that can lead them to achieve their goals this season. But that doesn’t mean that they will still not do better this season upon their changes. I know that they will missed Xavi Alonso so much because the coach has done a lot for the team. He has always impacted the team to make sure they remain competitive, and now that he is no more managing the team anymore, that’s why a lot of people were doubting about their performance this season.

But the fact is that if the teams are still playing well and the players have the ability to play better and have the confidence to do the right things with their teammates, their performances can still going better; let forget that they made a lot of changes. We all know that their current coach had a bad record in his previous club, but this same coach might be the best one to come out with a good record for the club this season.
Why are we only focusing on the players they sold, and not look at how much they spent on getting new players? Yes it is true that they sold plenty of players, there is a big truth to that, but at the same time they spent 140-150+ million euros to get new players in those places.

Like they bought 35 million euro valued Tillman instead of Wirtz, why does he have to be bad? Or 35 million for Quansah at defense, why bad? Bade? Maza? Flekken? Poku? Vasquez from Madrid? I mean they got so many players and people are only saying they lost players. I am sorry but Leverkusen still has a great team, they do not have a terrible team like some people suggest, they may have sold some players but they got players instead.

When you think that ETF is a thing already, it's true that banks becoming deposit places and even basically exchanges is not that far away. Exchanges make billions and billions everyday, it's a huge business, I am not sure how big, but I mean Binance alone makes 20+ billion dollars a year, and that's just one exchange, sure the biggest, but one exchange only.

So if you take all of them together, you will realize that they are making a lot of money and banks will want piece of that. Considering the whole ETF sga, it may not be easy to have it all around the world easily, but as mentioned before me, some are starting already. So if you wait a bit more, in the future, banks will become like exchanges for crypto world, specially for bitcoin at the start.

Mourinho hasn't been that good for a while now, so it snot a shocker. When he went back to Chelsea after his Real Madrid stint, he wasn't terrible, he was still trying to cling to his system and wasn't terrible, I would consider that as his last good times. Then he moved to United, and while he did win few unimportant cups there, and Europa if I am not mistaken, he was still terrible at premier league, terrible.

Tottenham was obviously one of his worst years, but looking at both United and Spurs, not like they did much better after him neither. With Roma he won conference league and almost won Europa league (and deserved to win if not for a bad referee), but was terrible at the league again. So this dude plays alright for cups, but he was terrible at the leagues for nearly 10 years now, it's getting to ten years.

Even though Jackson will be a backup striker if he moves to Bayern Munich this season, I think Jackson moving to Bayern Munich will be better for him than remaining at Chelsea because Chelsea has a lot of players in Jackson's position, and with Jackson's performance for Chelsea last season, he won't be part of Chelsea's starting eleven, and it will have a negative impact on his development into a good striker.
Yeah, I agree. I mean this is bad for Bayern, but great for Chelsea and Jackson. If Chelsea kept him, they would be paying for a terrible player that they do not want, if Jackson stayed then he would be benched all season and not even play ,and whenever he does, he would get closer to being hated.

This way, Jackson will do better, because he will be at the bench, and not be expected to contribute a lot anyways, the expectation is lower, he is only there to make sure Kane gets his rest, nothing more. And Kane will play most games anyways, so Jackson will not play a lot of minutes, I am guessing he will barely be above 1000 minutes at Bayern all season long, and I would be shocked to see 2000+ minutes, I am sure that's not going to happen.

Re: Philippine House has introduced a bill to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve.

on 30/08/2025, 05:41:23 UTC
I have been active in the thread about El Salvador making Bitcoin a legal tender and I don't think the country bought Bitcoin because they wanted it to save their economy maybe from collapse. They just had a comprehensive plan that includes a bitcoin city which comprises several projects like mining facilities, hotels,  resorts, etc.  Sadly, the country couldn't go ahead with these projects, but they kept buying Bitcoin.  El Salvador’s Bitcoin investment has been profitable, and it seems they have a long-term approach.  
Well their initial plans for buying bitcoin didn't worked as plan but then they made the right approach, being among one of the first countries recognized for owning Bitcoin as a reserve is a big advantage to the country, they might not benefit from it now since it's in reserve for the future but later on when they've reserved it for decades, they'll begin to enjoy the benefits of accumulating it now for the future, this is something other countries too that wish to boost their economy in the future should emulate and it's good that the government of Phillipines has taken that bold step in trying to buy such amount of bitcoin to reserve for the future.
Because there is a huge difference between "let's put some money into bitcoin from the taxes" and "let's make everyone forced to accept bitcoin". The way they turned bitcoin into legal tender got pushback when they first tried it, because they forced bitcoin to be accepted, since it was legal tender, anyone who wanted to pay with it, had the right, and you had to accept it.

Eventually, that turned into, whoever prefers, and eventually that turned into you are not forced on anything at all, and just basically overall not legal tender in that sense. This is why you should consider how this could be very risky subject. But, putting some of the money into bitcoin? There is nothing wrong with that, it is a great investment for them.

Atalanta - Milan are even much worse. Not surprised with Atalanta but Milan did a little. Because they have a better manager like Allegri now.
AC Milan are still not finished their transfer plans. They recently reached an agreement with Chelsea for Nkunku, which could potentially improve AC Milan's attack. although a little doubtful, I hope Allegri can bring AC Milan much better, after become mediocre clubs since its last title under Pioli. There's a lot of work for Allegri to do.
It is understandable to not have all your transfers ready, I mean they have time until the registration period ends. But that doesn't mean they are a terrible team that needs 10 new players until then. They will make maybe one or two more move at most. Rest of the team is already there, and for some reason they still lost.

All these new players, and Allegri, and even Atalanta losing all that blood, mainly Gasperini, and yet they are still not doing that great. It's really sad to see this, and I am pretty sure that we can see them recover from this and do better, but it is not going to be easy, and we are not going to end up seeing them do a great job, we should be expecting them to end up with a lot better results if they want to mean for something.

With both Besiktas and Fenerbahce sacking their managers, even before we reach September, it's clear that we are going to end up with a lot better results for them. They were doing horrible and with the way things are looking right now, it can't get any worse with a new manager. Obviously Manchester United fans said that when they went from Erik Ten Hag to Amorim, and look at them now, they are not happy with him at all.

So unless these two teams make a mistake like United did, they should be getting someone better. This is why I think it's fair to say that they still have some time. Getting rid of bad baggage early on will make them better and should be making them earn some more, it should not be a bad deal and could be great.

Re: Bitcoin predictions for August.

There are several reasons that cause Bitcoin to fall at the price of 111 thousand and although the trigger is not on slaughtering interest rates there may be other influences that make Bitcoin down at that price. Another example may be found in macroeconomic factors that are likely to contribute to the decline in bitcoin. But if asked specifically I cannot explain why the decline occurs because sometimes bitcoin is difficult to predict based on the performance that occurs in the market today.

This is also another part of the process we are discussing, and some traders consider this a momentum for liquidity pickup, so they try to manipulate the market direction, which ultimately affects Riter traders at the stop-loss stage used. This kind of price decline process also often occurs in Bitcoin because Riter traders also have influence. For the long -term process it might not be worried because after the price of getting a severe correction there will always be a recovery momentum to bring Bitcoin to reach ATH in the next cycle.
I would say it was still the rates not being cut. After all, people expected a lot of money to go into bitcoin when the rates get a cut, but it didn't so there wasn't a big amount of money that went into bitcoin, with a lot of disappointed investors who got out. I am not saying that is the only reason, but it is definitely a bit reason.

This is why we are not seeing this change, it is going to be something that is going to be a big deal, and not have that much difference. Of course it's something that we can definitely safely assume it as good, because it's lower now and we can buy bitcoin at a discounted price and can sell for a lot higher in the future. This is the way to go forward and should not be that crazy but give us good profit.

Sikandar Raza have good fight but sadly 50th overs first ball his middle stamp and match gone from Zimbabwean hands big setback for them after having impressive fight in last 20 overs Sri Lankan fights back and take lead in this series. Few good personal performances from youngsters specially Janith Liyanage and Kamindu Mendis 137 runs partnership make things possible for visitors after early collapse.

Bundesliga or Bavarianliga has almost belonged to Bayern Munich because in this season no team is ready to challenge them for the title while they are having enough sources, skills and quality for keeping title.

First round is already ended and Bayern Munich punishment to RB Leipzig is clearly indicating how things will be work mostly other teams are having not good start with they can improve their performance and bring themselves into good position, but this is going to be taken time with this advantage is always with Bayern Munich.

Bayer Leverkusen is surely having serious troubles which needed to be fixed, and it's not easy because change of coach and overhaul of players is surely going to be had impact on them and this could be also beneficial their opponents.
I mean that was always the case, just because Leverkusen managed to win, out of the last 12, doesn't mean Bayern is shockingly the best. They are literally spending three or four times more than the next club, so it's clear that the yare the richest and unless they end up spending money on useless bad players, they should be able to actually win every season.

There isn't a solution to this until some other team is bought out by some rich club, if that does happen, then we are going to end up with better result. But until then, they have the most money, and that is why we are going to end up with bad results for others, while Bayern Munich ends up winning. Look at their game, Leipzig is not a bad team, and yet they dominated easily.

We should be just feel happy that it's down right now for us to buy, and if we buy now, then when the price goes up, we can profit and just think of this and feel happier about it. I know that you could end up with some mistakes, and that is the normal side of bitcoin, there isn't any person in the world that made no mistakes, everyone makes mistakes and it's part of the whole trading world and we just need to make sure that we learn from them and come out better.

I don't think the Madrid dressing room is in a bad state either. A few weeks ago we heard rumors that Vinicius junior wanted a pay rise. And we saw rumors that he had demanded a large sum of money. Madrid management probably didn't accept all of Vini's conditions. But we don't see that Vini is not happy with Madrid.

This season we can see the bond between Vini and Mbappe getting stronger. Last season we saw some unfriendly behavior between Vini, but this season we don't see that. The bond between Vini and Mbappe is better than before and it is visible.

If Alonso can fix the weaknesses in Madrid's midfield, we will see consistent good performances from this team. Midfield and defense are still the biggest problems for Real Madrid
And to be honest, it makes sense for Vini to want more money. Even Alaba is making more money than him lol. But yeah, making the same as Jude, and lower than Alaba and mbappe, this doesn't feel like it's a reasonable thing to do.

I think Vini should get at least 25 million, with a small bonuses here and there for winning things if they do. That should be the most important difference maker, because 25 million plus 1 million each for winning la liga, the cup, the UCL and all of that, would make it nearly 30 million, close to mbappe. He does deserve that, they made all that news and created drama for a while just because Vini didn't win the Ballon D'or and Rodri won instead, if he is that great and they believe he is that good, they should give that much money.

Galatasaray is having ideal start of their season through 3 wins and having clean sheets which are making things favourable for them to defend title their fourth game is also against Rizespor this could be give them 4 out of four with clean sheet as well.

In round 4 Trabzonspor which is also having 3 wins with clean sheets are going to face Samsunspor which is also have 2 wins and 6 points this is going to be interesting game at the top of league table with one team is going to lose his 100% record of this season in another game Goztepe will be host Konyaspor which have exciting start and score 7 goals in just 2 games this is also big game for this round with both are balanced and have fair chance of win this game.
