It is not all black and white. If I am not mistaken, it was Arsenal that knocked out Real Madrid last time in the Champions League with a total result of 5-1 in both legs. Let me remind you that Arsenal knocked out the most experienced team there has ever been in the Champions League to this date. I think that is proof enough that there is sufficient reason to believe they do have a shot here.

At the moment there is no team as dominant as PSG used to be in 24/25. PSG is not leading Ligue 1, almost lost against Marseille a few days ago and Real Madrid got their coach fired. Manchester City couldn't win the last three games in the Premier League and Inter and AC Milan are far from a perfect record in Serie A.

The only team that seems to be ahead of the rest is Bayern Munich for now, but then guess who was the only team to beat Bayern this season? Arsenal!

Barcelona looked very strong in 24/25 and yet got knocked out by Inter Milan. It's difficult to ever predict the winner in this competition, but I think considering performances in domestic leagues, Barcelona, Bayern and Arsenal can very well be considered favourites along with a few other clubs.

I doubt this is correct as he actually implemented a lower cap on deductions for gambling losses within the Big Beautiful Bill. I don't see why he would lower the cap, pass the law that that now took effect and then considered abandoning tax on gambling altogether. I think he might have been asked about this and perhaps gave an unclear or mysterious answer about it, but it is not realistic to assume that he will abandon part of the Big Beautiful Bill that was literally just enacted.

Then again never say never since we are talking about Trump

That's the beauty of being a coach in sports having long contract durations. What these guys call disappointment when they get fired, can't ever be compared to what a normal human being calls disappointment when they get fired. Alonso walks home with a huge bag of cash exactly because he got fired.

Great to have you around in the gambling discussion section @NotATether. I am damn sure I will read more often that you ask people what they smoked while writing their posts This was actually harmless. You will come across stuff that will blow your mind!

I'll give you a little taste from the Bundesliga thread, enjoy!

Oh thank god, @buwaytress please be nice and let me know when the time has come that someone is waiting to flip places with me! Otherwise I might miss this golden opportunity. Didn't know flipping places every now and then was a feature of this Bundesliga pool

Damn, now the guy I accuse of using ChatGPT for his answers, leads the German Bundesliga pool. Maybe I should start using ChatGPT as well

But let's be honest, if it's not for some expert talk in all these football discussion threads, it is definitely for the lolz going through some of the posts! For sure not exactly the place where I get my special information to place my next bets

Damn, that 8-1 was a clear sign, but seriously, I'd rather get my bet destroyed by an 8-1 than a last minute goal taking potential winnings away from me.

The thing is, now that Kompany is bringing on so many younger players and they all do well and are super motivated to show themselves at their best whenever they can, I think even rotation doesn't play in favour of those who bet against Bayern. This 8-1 was quite crazy.

K�ln is playing at home, might obviously be helpful, but they are in a horrible downtrend. Then again, nothing else to say about Mainz apart from the fact that they have at least not lost the last three games. If Mainz can do it, K�ln should be able to, but Bayern seems to be running hot quickly this year.

I strongly assume you have been sarcastic here because there is no existing offer. Setting up wallets for a person, even a friend, is a stupid thing to do. I have had the same situation, someone asked me to set it up for him, very close friend, and I told him on the phone that I won't do it because even when he gets hacked, I could never prove that it wasn't me who stole it. Just avoid this kind of situations. Introduce them how to set it up themselves as there are many ways to do it. But make sure they bear the final responsibility for their keys.

And to make things even worse for you, Barcelona won the game. Man no kidding, this would have been a spectacular turnaround for you I would have smashed my head in the wall especially because I hedged the first game and when three goals were not even scored, I thought no way this AFCON game is ending with six goals, no more hedge needed.

On a side not, the odds for over 4.5 were 11.00 in that game and for over 5.5 it was, I can't remember. I could have just put $5 and I would have been fine in terms of compensation for a loss. But then discarded the option because many of these AFCON games hardly end with three goals, let alone four goals.

Damn, it was close and I guarantee you next time I won't be stingy and rather place that $5 bet
