Mourinho had a stint at United and it was terrible last time he was here, and there were a lot of chaos, I get it, I understand. However, can we really that he would be as bad as Amorim? I mean we are talking about the guy who lost to league two team, the guy who got 28 points out of 29 games. Can you really say that Mourinho would be as bad? He was sacked, because he didn't made the second best team the first team, that is understandable.

But if you give him the 15th team, he will take that team into top 10 guaranteed, even on his worst year. I think since he is already sacked, and Amorim is about to get sacked, then Mourinho could actually be a good decision for United.

Seems like nobody is happy with their selections. I mean I have not seen one subredit of the teams that is happy with the way draw happened, nobody feels like they got an easy pick, they all feel like they ended up getting bad results, so it's true that they are not going to be happy. Galatasaray fans here are saying it's hard, but I saw even PSG and Real Madrid and Arsenal fans end up being bad, so it is not really that easy at all, it's really not an easy thing to do.

We should be considering this as very big deal, and not really end up with this system working. If everyone is unhappy, there must be something wrong. I get some happy and some unhappy, but ALL unhappy? That doesn't feel like a system that can sustain for too long.

Real Madrid doesn't have that much of a tough schedule neither, they draw one of the smallest teams too, like how they faced Sheriff, unless same happens, they should be getting a win. Tough situation to be in, but it's doable. I am sure that we are going to move into even more games in the UCL in the future, like 10 maybe, instead of 8, and there will be more teams like these.

But so far, Real is getting lucky with their draws. Liverpool and Man City which is why it's quite true that we are not going to end up with any bad stuff. They are going to be a top eight team this season, not just be in top 24 like last year, but they should be able to win against all of them and have a great result, without that much trouble.

Forks were seen as trend once upon a time, not anymore, same as NFT's which were seen as trend, and not anymore, same as Play2Earn games, trend, not anymore. I can repeat this a million times. Sometimes things are trending and they get all the attention, and then they end up with losses and not anymore afterwards. This is the only time to focus on it and because of that, we are not going to get any good returns.

You have to realize, crypto is a very trend oriented place aside from the very top, sure bitcoin and ethereum and what not will stay at the top, but outside of top 20 changes all the time, and that is based on trends and whatever is the trend at the time, happens to be the case. This is why the best way to move forward would be ignoring trends after they are done.

I am getting shocked more and more everyday by Kompany being a good manager, I mean I did not expected him to be a good manager at all considering he came from some relegated team at premier league to suddenly be manager of Bayern Munich, that doesn't happen ever, you end up getting experienced managers.

I am 100% sure Bayern would have gotten Xabi if they could last year instead, but Xabi said no, because he knew after Leverkusen he would go to Real Madrid and he played there and he loves them so he waited. However, Kompany didn't disappoint like I imagined he would, he is looking strong, and team is doing very well under his stewardship. I think he is going to get a lot better and won't have that much trouble.

Douglas Luiz goes as a "loan" with obligation to buy. That means, they are going to pay his salary for this year, and then they are paying 3 million to Juventus to loan him, and at the end of the season they are going to end up with a 30 million purchase instead. That is going to be a lot better for all of us and we are going to see Notthingham use him a lot better.

Of course it is not that complicated but I still wonder why he didn't worked out well in Juventus, that's a good player and he deserved to be played and if he was given enough time then we would see him play a great game if Juventus gave him any chance. But for some reason they didn't really worked out together, not sure if that is bad though, he can do great at Forrest.

Wizards can't do anything no matter how hard they try. It's clear that they are not that great and it's obvious that they are going to end up with some troubles. So do not assume that we are going to end up with better results. Wizards is just simply tanking and they are going to keep on tanking for a while longer, it's just the way things are.

If they keep doing this, and keep getting bad contracts in return of some picks, or just simply get them and tank and give the kids some mentorship with these stars, then they are going to be better in the future. Honestly it's all about being a destination team, and Wizards isn't one, hence why in most cases big names win the titles, whereas smaller teams do not win it that often.

Honestly, it's true that perpetual is just alternative when you do not have anything else. But in reality, futures are a lot better and should be something that can be great to improve. If you can do that, then you are going to get the best out of this, and shouldn't have a lot of trouble. If you can find the futures you want, then you are not going to focus on perpetual.

To be fair, it's a rare case but I would say it would make sense if you could end up with neither because for me both are troubled, that is the risk, and if you can handle it, then you can have a better period. Not everyone has the same return to this at all, it's a different situation without much trouble, and for me, futures and perpetuals are bad.

This is why the drawing is a bit crooked. I mean its not "fake" or corrupt or anything like that, I believe it is fair. But the system has to change without a doubt. Fenerbahce is a 300 million euro club, instead of them, Kairat is going, Pafos is going, Qarabag is going and such. I mean I get it, we are seeing smaller teams have a chance to play at UCL thanks to this and that's good for them, but its not great for football.

Because there is a 99% chance these teams will finish with either 1 point or zero point, because of how small they are and how everyone else is better than them. They should be at conference league or Europa league level at best. Because of bad drawing luck, two of the biggest teams in qualifying matched each other.

Sesko will definitely start more games, and play a lot more minutes. It's just adjusting period, he needs to train with the team a bit. Plus, it was summer time, which means he needs some more fitness training as well. When he is all trained with the team and in shape, he will be starting player and will be in the game all game.

The only downside is that, getting 9th top scorer of Bundesliga, for your scoring option, was never a good idea and for some reason they did it anyways. I do not know the exact reason why they believed he was good enough, but looking at how he played, nothing so far, from last year, shows me that he was who they needed. They seriously needed an Osimhen level player, and instead got Sesko, no idea why.

I would guess that it is going to eb a very complicated issue to make this work, it is not going to be that easy to handle all of this that easily, it is going to take a while. I know this isn't something that we can easily accept, but these huge players are part of it now and you have to accept that, there isn't much we can do about it. I get that people want less about this, but it's the truth we have to face one way or another.

And because of that reason, we are going to just figure out how to do this without worrying about anything else. Because if you keep thinking about it, then you are going to not have anything good in the end. Just worrying about these whales will prevent you from making any proper profit in the future.

This season, a lot of teams look great, so there is no real clear advantage on any team. I understand oddmakers do say Napoli because they won last year and then got some great players. But, the truth is that there are many great teams this season and anything could happen.

We should consider this as a good way to start, because it is going to allow us to not have any big changes, it's going to be pretty much the same situation to start. Of course it is not going to be crazy to handle all this, because when betting, we are going to have hard time as well. When there are so many great teams, it is not easy to know which one will win, and which one will be bad. It's just not reality, and we will have hard time with it.

I do not think a whale selling would crash that much. 2.4 billion dollars is nothing in the daily volume of bitcoin, while it would definitely drop it a bit, we do have enough buyers to cover that in normal days. It was just a bad period where the rates weren't cut, so it was normal for the price to crash.

Let's see that whale try to sell all 150k bitcoins in a single day during the bull market, I guarantee you that it would be all sold in a day and we would not drop much, because during bull periods , we go up by 10-20%+ anyways, it would just level that and not more. That is why these news never make sense to me, it's just a normal situation without any big problems ever, it is not that complicated and never was.

Lyon had a great start. Considering they were nearly dropped to second league, the fact that they started this good is a great indication that they are doing fine. With all the money they have now from recovering financially, they could do a lot better.

This should be a very good problem solving example, when you are handling the situation this dangerous, like even being relegated, then you have to understand this isn't really easy to handle for anyone. That should be the most critical part of it, we are not going to see Lyon type situation that commonly, but financial responsibility shows how important it is. From a team that nearly went down, to a team that is at the top for now. I mean they won't finish at the top, but they will finish near the top.

When some nations started to use the "seized" bitcoins they have, to keep it aside as a reserve, many other nations realized, they can have bitcoin AND not spend any money for it. This will of course help us too, because they will crack down on anyone who has illegally done anything with crypto, that way they can seize their crypto, mainly bitcoin.

This will incentives nations to be better at finding criminals, because they will have a chance to bolster up their treasury with all this money coming from seizing bitcoins. While some will also put some money into bitcoin as well, instead of just rely on the bad people. When you think of all of this, you end up with a better result and get great returns on the long run.

Lmao, we are already seeing the Erik Ten Hag impact on the team. I am not saying they are good, of course they won't win the league no matter who they get as manager. But you should be able to beat Hoffenheim, even after losing Wirtz and all others. It's clear that ETH is going to make this team into something terrible and there is no way that we are going to see them finish in top four.

I said before the season started that if they do finish in fourth place then I would consider them as great this year, because of all the people they lost. But looking at the first game, I would consider them lucky if they finish 7th now. They will probably not be in the top 10 and that is the sad reality of any team that is managed by him.

I never liked chatgpt, or any AI software like Gemini or whatever, none of them. Because of one simple reason, nothing complicated, nothing ethical, not a big dela, it's literally for one simple reason; it makes things harder than it should be. I haven't tried the very latest ones, haven't used it in months probably, only start of the year, and I did it to potentially write a children's book, because I could write a children's book, and then create images for a children's book, all from AI, and put it on amazon, who would print on demand, and I could do that as a business.

That was my idea, and I checked, but it literally fails to keep it in memory, and you have to keep reminding it, and the result sucks, I can write much better than AI, and would only use it for fixing my grammar. But I didn't do it, it is not really a good business for me, so for now, AI sucks. But I do see a great deal of potential on how awesome it can become in the future.

Unless it breaks your bank and you bankrupt. I mean there is a limit to it, someone who makes a grand a month, should not be losing 150k grand, no idea how he even got that much, but as an example, he wouldn't be able to pay that back as a debt. These days many nations have high rates, so it would be a silly move to just make that work.

So yes, failure is not final, and yes you can get better, but you should also make sure that you are careful, don't just trade it all away. If you do that, then you may end up hurting your economy so badly that it may not be possible for you to recover from that without bankrupting, and when you do that then you are going to be forced to pay that back, like seizing your house or whatever. Be careful.

AI is becoming such a hot topic here on bitcointalk, everyone is talking about it. I understand there is a demand, there is at least a desire, to see AI get into our market too. Either as trading AI bot, or some AI token, or some other form, just make it as AI as possible so that people would combine crypto world with AI world and make a new trend.

But believe me, it is not happening right now, maybe in the future it will happen, but at the moment it is not happening, so we need to be more calm about it. On the other hand, AI will not replace jobs, it's the business owners who will replace people. That is what happened overtime whenever something happened. Hell they replaced humans with cheaper humans already, so if they can save a dime, they will use AI too.

After that terrible first game, it is definitely great that Chelsea had an easy win. They needed that one because it looked like they weren't going to be that great. This is important because they didn't win just with one or two goals, they scored five goals, and won in a dominating way. That shows that they are normally very good when they play like they are at their 100%.

Now they need to just fix the inconsistency of the team, and should be able to do a lot better. Spurs looks awesome meanwhile. They are two out of two, and they beat City on the last game, they looked strong against PSG as well. Nobody really expected them to have such kind of "turn the ship around" this quickly, look at United they are still failing. Spurs will be a team to look at this season.
