Re: 2025 Ballon d’Or Prediction thread

on 09/09/2025, 16:16:47 UTC


As reported by Fabrizio, there's a tension between the Balloon d'Or organisers and Real Madrid, a delegation from France travelled Al the way to Madrid to try and settle with Perez but as reported by Marca, there was no positive ending in the meeting. From the look of things Real Madrid management is still angry after what happened in the last Ballon d'Or, for me if truly the organisers did the right thing and Rodri was the rightful winner of the award, then why are they going to beg Perez? Doesn't this show that they did something shady and awarded it someone else instead of the supposed rightful winner! I'm just saying because why send delegates to Perez?
They are right to be angry with the organizers of the event, they deserve it, and they don't understand that champions can't be treated in this way, I always think of how they treated Cristiano Ronaldo to favor Messi, so much so that in the end Cristiano snubbed the competition, because the other was clearly the favorite, Real Madrid are right to be angry

I don't see Arsenal as part of the contenders in this season title race. Arsenal should first of all, win EPL before they can start chasing the Champions League title. Barcelona isn't showing too much of quality in them this season. Maybe, I am using the few matches that they have played to judge them but they need to improve their performance if they want to be part of the Champions League contender this season.
Season by season Arsenal never favorite team for winning UEFA Champion League, last season kicked out by Bayern Munich at quarter final round and can't remember well when the latest moment Arsenal success qualifying until semifinal or reach final round.
For phase round absolutely Arsenal easily for qualifying but after qualifying to knock out or quarter final round will get difficulty exactly facing the top teams. Still enjoying for other team fans make judge or joke about Arsenal as the top premier league team until nowadays not winning Champion League. Can't acceptable by Arsenal fans after many top player recruit still difficult to be the winner of Champion League.
Let's not joke, Arsenal will never reach the final stage of the competition, the Champions League this year already knows who will go to the final and it certainly won't be Arsenal, with this I'm not saying that there is an agreement to make a particular team win, but there are several before Arsenal

Israel 4 Vs Italy 5 FT
This has got to be one of the insane games in this world cup qualifiers. Israel took the lead twice before falling off the ladder and Italy equalised and to make it 2 - 2, the same Italy went ahead to score 2 more goals to make it 4 - 2 before 80 minutes and that's when Israel craziness started as they responded with 2 goals of their own in the 87th and 89th minutes to make it 4 - 4 on the night, just as we thought it was going to end in stalemate, Italy struck again to make it 5 - 4 which eventually won the match for them.
Italy has shown that it is a team that resists, fights and wins. It is clear that the coach has done a great job of motivating the boys, but it must be said that they also showed their character, demonstrating that they are Italy. They were put to the test but they managed to get by.

This matchday Inter will face Juventus, it will certainly be a very tough match as my friend lillominato89 can testify.
The two teams have been bitter enemies for years and I'm sure the players will give 200% in this match.
let's hope it's a good match
This is one game I look forward to seeing, Juventus has really been inconsistent so I would want to see what their performance will be like against a top team like Inter Milan who happens to be a top team with a good strength in the Serie A, last season I remember both of them been rivals in the early part of the season until Juventus suffered some decline that led them to falling behind a while and could not get a decent finish by the end of the season.
Juventus will be playing at home and trying to secure three points against Inter. This match is crucial for Inter because they've unexpectedly dropped points. They need three points from this match in their quest for the top spot, but Juventus will do whatever it takes to prevent that. Juventus are a very strong and difficult opponent for Inter. In my opinion, Inter haven't found their form yet, and I feel like Juventus will be closer to securing three points in this match.
It's always a tense match, the level is very high and what's on the table is high, the stakes are very high, in fact it is said that the Italian derby is a match in itself, in truth every derby is different and in fact this one is very heartfelt, therefore all the schemes go away and they don't work very well, it will be a good match.

Re: ? Tyson vs Mayweather 2026 Boxing
by

on 08/09/2025, 10:43:59 UTC
But this will definitely be interesting to watch. However, just like any (albeit exhibition) Tyson fights. It is clear that this is done solely for the sake of money and the fight is not real. Well, it doesn't matter. But for Tyson's fans, of whom there are still many left in this world, such an event is like a journey into the past. By the way, there's a good TV series about Tyson, "Mike," released by hulu in 2022.

Naah, that not interesting to watch at all. A retired boxer who has stamina only for few rounds. A rich boxer who will avoid any contact and risk, do everything to save his undefeated record. They would better pay Mike same amount he would receive for an exhibition fight, but make a photo session or have few second sparing with him in the ring with anyone who is ready to pay. There will be a crowd with fans who are ready to pay to get a few minutes of Mike attention.

The more I see Mike involved in such exhibition/pro fights, the more sad I am. Once an undefeated champion who threatened his opponents only by looking on them, now looks like an old lion in circus who is forced to show weak attempts of aggression, former glory and strength for the amusement of the audience...
This thing is true, how do you like to follow a former boxer now retired collecting money with these fake fights that have no meaning, it's such a depressing thing that makes me want to turn everything off, but there are people who follow him who like these fictions, I won't judge you but it's a senseless thing in my opinion

Re: Losing time in gambling is worse than losing money.
by
verdinio
on 08/09/2025, 10:06:35 UTC

I'm a bit confused, but maybe many people disagree. Since money is the main goal, I think it's better to waste time to earn money. But we must remember that time cannot be recovered, while money can always be earned again. Losing money is painful, but there are always opportunities to work, save, or invest again. Gambling may not just be about money, but it can also lead to spiritual, intellectual, and emotional poverty. Logically speaking, time is more important than losing money. But I don't think everyone agrees with this opinion.


Obviously, not everything is tied only to time and money in gambling, because after a loss there may be a feeling of disappointment, which will affect our mood even after we have finished playing, and this should also be taken into account. We can say that after a win we feel euphoria for some time, but this does not always happen. We can earn money again, but we can't get back time, so you need to think carefully about where you would like to spend your time, especially if you are no longer young.
exactly, you have to be very careful about the decisions you make, it's not something you can manage especially as you get older, it's a choice that can lead to a lot of damage, especially financial, which then has repercussions on everyday life including the family and love sphere, so you have to think carefully before doing any damage.

I believe people were saying PSG can actually retain the Champions League trophy because of their last season's performance and dominance in the Champions League, but I feel PSG can't retain the Champions League trophy this season because I believe PSG can't maintain their last season's performance this season. Barcelona will be a difficult opponent for PSG in the Champions League, and I am even rooting for Barcelona to beat PSG since Dembele won't play against Barcelona.

True, now there are many who think that PSG are capable of defending their title because they did it last season, but if that hadn't happened, there would have been a lot of talk about PSG not being good enough and constantly lacking something. In my opinion, Barcelona were good enough to win the Champions League, but in the match against Inter, something inexplicable happened, and the referees also took part in it, but I don't want to remember that now. I don't think PSG will be able to repeat the same thing this season, because there are stronger teams.
No, I don't think they'll be able to repeat that feat. This can happen to a very strong team, but teams that have won have rarely repeated the feat. PSG is a great team and has always shown it, but it must be said that by letting Donnarumma go, they've weakened themselves considerably.

In just 2 years Aryna Sabalenka has proven herself as one of the best female tennis player after winning 4 Single Grand Slams with end 11 years drought of female players for defending her title at US Open. Impressive performance from her with 101?26 record in Grand Slam events.



Aryna Sabalenka is surely one of the best in current era with 4 Grand Slam wins and 3 loses in finals with 3 Australian Open finals which is also impressive from her things are going favourable for her to be stayed at the top ranks with her consistency and amazing touch in games.

Today another big show down is coming with Sinner vs Alcaraz both are well-balanced, but Sinner is slightly favourite for title.
Aryna Sabalenka is a girl who is showing a lot and is truly scary, she has grown very quickly technically even if she was already very strong, and above all she is also a beautiful girl, regarding Sinner in the end who was the favorite played a match not worthy of him and did not behave very well, Alcaraz deserved everything

Re: gambling in prison

on 05/09/2025, 19:41:56 UTC
You are correct to say gambling makes it way into nearly all environment, including prison wards. It is not necessarily about money but about the need for distraction, connection socially, and a sense of control in such a place where freedom is restricted. The negative aspect is just like you said: going into debts and even misunderstanding may result to violence quickly. Therefore while it is occupying an empty space, it equally brings risk. This shows that gambling is not just all about gains, rather it's involves the human personality desiring play, risk and also escape, as well as in the most difficult situations
Gambling in prison is not 100% for distraction, it is another means prisoners use to get some basic items they need in the prison. They don't work to earn money, so it is only through gambling they get what they want.

One of my major concern about these gamblers Gambling is that it builds another form of character in them. I see prison as a correctional facility where prisoners form good habits over time while regretting some of the actions that has led to them being deprived their freedom. A Prisoner who eventually gets addicted is getting himself into another mess when he lives prison.
It's always been like this, prison is supposed to be rehabilitative but in reality it makes a person even angrier who will cause more trouble when he gets out, fortunately I've never been in prison so I can't know how they spend their time, but I think that playing and betting is the thing that passes the time the most and gives you adrenaline, so I think that's the reason why they play

There's much expectations from Victor Osimhen this season and I hope he don't end up disappointing, because all eyes have been on him and there's no how they could have played any match without having their eyes on him for an outstanding performance, not only that, they needed him to score a number of goals for them to go far in this season.
I?m not worried about Victor Osimhen whether or not he will impress or disappoint because he played for the club on loan last season and delivered the league trophy so why else do I need to have doubts that he will impress. He is already used to the league mind you he already has two goals in three games for Galatasaray this season.
yes in fact I also think that Osimhen will do very well this year, let's say that he can compete at a high level and help the team to achieve great results, even if he wasn't destined to stay in that club most likely he didn't find another destination that he liked and decided to stay

Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

on 05/09/2025, 14:04:51 UTC
Barcelona dropping points against weaker teams is not new. We have seen this many times in the past. Even in the previous season, Barcelona dropped points against weaker teams in several matches. On the other hand, we have seen Barcelona perform well against teams like Real Madrid, Atletico and Sociedad. Barcelona failed to win against Rayo Vallecano. There is no denying that Rayo's performance was incredible. They definitely earned points in this match. At the same time, I would like to say that if Hansi Flick wants to dominate La Liga, then every match will have to be considered very seriously. If he cannot continue his winning streak, it will not be possible for Barcelona to dominate La Liga.
You are right that Barcelona has history of struggling against weaker teams while playing well against strong rivals. However last match with Rayo Vallecano was 1-1 draw not loss for Barcelona. Your point about Hansi Flick needing to keep winning streak is very important because if Barcelona wants to win league they can not afford to lose points to any team. Flick challenge will be to make sure his team plays consistently well in every match.
There are many teams that perform well against strong teams and perform poorly against less strong teams. Sometimes strong teams do not know the past analysis of weak teams and their players in detail so during training, the match situation goes against them due to not knowing the strengths of the opposing team players. If they were aware of other strong teams and their players in advance and practices their strategies to counter them in advance it would be easier to play against them. The same situation was seen in the case of Barcelona, Huh?they performed poorly against Rayo Vallecano. But despite being a weak team played very well because the Vallecano players were aware of Barca strengths and went to the field after studying the players of the opposing team.
Yes, it's true that there are teams that manage to bring out the best in themselves against bigger teams and this was one of the cases in which it happened. It's not easy for these teams to bring out their character against the big teams in the league, but in this case, Barcelona could only watch the football these guys were playing.

by

on 05/09/2025, 13:24:13 UTC


I'd like to ask you the same question. Who have you liked the most among the new transfers on the first 2 weeks?  Huh

Just in the source, I can also say De Bruyne is one of the names. I had doubts about him because of his injury history in his last times at Manchester City. But he still made a good start at his new team.

Curiously waiting for Højlund too. Maybe this will be the place his career goes higher...

Napoli had one of the best signing among all the clubs in there league because De Bruyne is not a little player in the pitch and it was because of his talent Manchester City became too attached with him, I don't even think that injury will affect him that much in Napoli, at his first match in Serie A he scored one and they still win the next so they now have 6 point, this signing will produce good thing for Napoli no doubt because aside from De Bruyne performance, Serie A is easy to perform than were he comes from. Gradually the pillars of Manchester City are leaving them.
Yes, I agree with you, this De Bruyne is the best purchase they could have made, he is truly an incredible player who can really play in all parts of the midfield, there are no players like him anymore, and they did well to get him at a good price, among other things.

For me, the penalty that was awarded to Barcelona was controversial because the contact between Pep Chavarria and Lamine Yamal was not much. I think both of them had an equal impact on each other. Barca got that goal because the VAR was not functioning. Rayo Vallecano gave the defending champions a good fight and if not for Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia, they would have scored more.

Garcia is the reason why they could salvage a point out from the game trust me. I see the reason why Hansi Flick wanted him so bad. The comments of Pedri saying "We all ran for ourselves last season" bothers me, I really think he's referring to some attacking players not working hard on the pitch, and if that's Raphinha and Rashford they better buckle the fvck up. Winning the La Liga again is something I want to see at the end of the season.
I'm honestly starting to feel a bit disliked by this team. They're certainly strong and full of talent, but they behave like prima donnas, and honestly, I wouldn't mind if Rashford took their starting spot. Some players put on too much airs. If they want to win they have to shut up and pedal

Yes, if we remember that, you're absolutely right. The Champions League title was completely unexpected last season. So, given that, it's possible the same thing will happen this season. Predicting which teams will win the Champions League is quite difficult this season. Although I currently feel Barcelona has great potential to win, my prediction could still be completely wrong. But the point is, there's nothing wrong with having our own predictions, because honestly, that's what makes it even more exciting.
..

Even though my favorite team, let's say my favorite, lost badly in the final, @lillominato89 knows it, i enjoyed last year's Champions League, it was fun and full of twists and turns.
So i would sign up now to have a Champions League of that level again this year

Well! Everyone liked it, I would say. There were so many twists and turns that it made that Champions League very interesting indeed. I don't think it will be repeated for a long time now. So lillominato89 can rest easy and blissful.
All joking aside I would always love to see an Italian team in the Champions League final but it's not always possible. In the last 25 years let's say we've had a decent presence of Italian teams in the final
Milan won 2 and lost 1 Inter won 1 and lost 2 Juventus lost 3
9 appearances by Italian teams in 25 years is not a bad figure, there are those who have done worse
Well, it's not easy to get to the final and win it too, it's not easy because then you definitely find a strong team that has put in more effort than you, in the case of Juventus they found two of the strongest teams of all time, in the case of Inter it could have gone a little better but they weren't able to keep up with that team.

Lookman was really rumoured with Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe on the recent days. But they both went for a really late move and it was the deadline for European tournaments registration.  Tongue

The transfer window was also about to close for Serie A teams so that must be why Atalanta wasn't also keen on letting him go. They wouldn't have been able to find a replacement while there were only hours left...

Staying at Atalanta is still not good for him in the long term though. I don't believe in Juric at all.
I would say that Ademola Lookman has literally been unlucky with the transfer window this summer because first he was linked to Inter Milan, then Spurs, Bayern Munich, Arsenal and no one was successful. Staying at Atalanta is the only option at this moment and I doubt if he will be happy playing for the club for the rest of the period.
President Percassi has put his back to the wall and hasn't accepted any kind of offer. It's not easy to deal with that man. Atalanta has a player and wants him to play with them until his contract expires, and they're right. A good offer hasn't arrived and they've kept him.

All these matches have been really great, nothing to say, but I have to say that the match that excites me the most will be Sinner - Musetti, this match will promise to be epic because Lorenzo Musetti will not want to be outdone by the first in the world and will show everyone what he is made of, on the other hand Sinner who needs no introduction, I have bet on Musetti.
Yes, there was no match, Sinner proved to be much more superior to Lorenzo Musetti, who tried to keep up with the world number one but failed, however, congratulations to him for being there and for never giving up an inch, it's not easy to stay at these levels
