Watching the game, Galatasaray have it all, full dominance to win the game but they left everything open for their opponents to hold on to, ofcourse Zalgiris is no match for Galatasaray. The lions boss, Okan Buruk knows specifically how to handle his opponents, which he eventually did, the thing his club was unlucky with their numerous counter attacks and domination. Let's say luck happens more often in football games. Average club like Zalgiris Vilnius managed to draw the game against an elite club like Galatasaray. It's really one tough game for Zalgiris but they managed to holx down Galatasaray to a 2-2 tie on the scoresheet, with a good defensive strategy. 

Im also very disappointed with it. The performance from galatasaray is far under my expectation. The result of this match was preventing my multibet. Zagreb was winning with big scores, the result from this match is predictable but i don't even know what's wrong with galatasaray. The goal at the last minute is destroying all of bets being made by so many people. No effort from galatasaray's back to prevent crossing. One mistake and everything gone. Im so mad after seeing the result from galatasaray.

The whole starter of galatasaray is not even stronger than zalgiris team. My expectation was very high, and that's my fault, but the goal in the last minutes is actually a blunder.

Also, many people said that the main reason that Arsenal missed out on the title of the winner of the English Premier League was that Arsenal did not have the necessary depth of the squad not just for several tournaments, but simply even for the championship itself. Therefore, in theory, such transfer activity should not surprise. The most important thing is that Arsenal do not step on the rake of Chelsea, who could not effectively use all the players at their disposal and then staged a sale.

I honestly didn't watch the match today, but I went to check the stats after the match, and you're absolutely right! Galatasaray played really badly but they were also very unlucky to concede the equalizer in the 92nd minute. It should be considered that currently they will not be in perfect shape, but rightly those who bet on this match gave Galatasaray as an assured winner given the opponent who found themselves in front

Tottenham will not be fair to Harry Kane if he is not sold this summer. He has done all possible best for this club and has brought the team a lot of glory. Wanting to depart now should not be an excuse for the team to keep him after all of his contributions. Every player wants to explore different leagues and teams in order to add to their achievements, and Harry Kane's desire to leave is no exception. They shouldn't raise his asking price solely to drive away potential bidders.


Going to Bayern Munich is currently his best option.  What he wants now is a trophy to add to his name, and he is not going to fill the void left by another team without a guarantee of winning anything. I'm confident he'll win a trophy and add to his list of achievements with Bayern. Harry Kane is a fantastic player, and it would be unfortunate if he went with no titles to his name in football history.

I think it will not be a big problem for arsenal facing a heavy Schedule in the next season as they can rotate players to focus on important matches for them. Arsenal success in returning to the Champions League will certainly be used as best as possible for Arteta to do his best in every game they play.

3 representatives from the EPL indeed the three of them were absent in the previous season in the Champions League and this season they will try to do their best in the moment of every match they play in the Champions League such as Newcastle United, Manchester United and Arsenal. Only Manchester City, maybe they don't think too much about this because they are used to a busy schedule.

Man i cant know how many bets crashed because of Galatasaray performance today, what a disaster, you cant draw against a little team like Zalgiris, no matter if they were in their home, you are so much bigger than them.

And plus Galatasaray put the whole starter squad, it wasnt a subs team.

Galatasaray faced with Zalgiris Vilnius in the first match of the UEFA Champions League 2nd qualifying round. Galatasaray drew Zalgiris Vilnius with 2-2. Galatasaray had a very bad performance against Zalgiris Vilnius, despite the big difference in quality gap. If the Zalgiris Vilnius strikers were more finishing, they could win the match.

I'm not wrong, compared to many other teams, Arsenal invested too much money and the amount of money they spent to buy players for the next season was high enough to say people now expect much more from Arteta and his players in the next season.

Maybe at the end of the day Tottenham will also have to accept Kane going to another team, but it looks like it's too late for him because I think Kane is past the peak of his form. Kane is almost 30 years old, he still has 1 year on his contract with Tottenham. Even though I believe Kane is still in good shape at 31, I think his form will be different compared to now.

Based on transfermarkt, there are 3 teams that have the possibility to get Kane's signature. PSG, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are teams that are interested in Kane, but I can consider Kane preferring Manchester United as a harbor for his future career.

It is a pity for Bayer Munich that Tottenham wouldn't allow Kane to leave the club because they see him as the club legend. They know that if he leaves now,the club performance will depreciate drastically since he is the only players that they rely more on in scoring goals. Tottenham needs a replacement and since they haven't gotten one that will replace Kane,they see no reason of letting him go.

What I know is that Tottenham can't stop Kane from leaving Tottenham but they can only delay his moves. If Kane's contract is over with them,I believe he will see that as an opportunity to leave Tottenham. Kane staying in Tottenham this long hasn't brought him any good trophy.

Harry Kane is too fantastic for Tottenham, but maybe he will not reach the same level if he joins another team. Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Real Madrid are some of the teams interested in Harry Kane, but Tottenham have set their selling price too high. Bayern Munich have come with seriousness for Harry Kane, but nothing has been decided about his future.

I tend to think Kane will stay at Tottenham next season because it doesn't look like Tottenham really want to sell him to another team. Tottenham may need to bring in a replacement striker before Kane is sold, but so far they haven't found one. After all, Tottenham will not participate in the Champions League next season, this can make Kane's chances of moving a little higher.

It seems Arsenal has learnt from there mistakes last season because they have been shopping for players seriously in the transfer window and has had one of the best transfer window so far, the only club I think has had a better window is Chelsea because they're making profits instead of spending as they are letting go of all the flops that were draining them to the Saudis and making lots of profits from the sales. Arsenal has recruited players that can put up a fight especially in the midfield but that's not enough. They still need to get more players because challenging for the premier league and champions league is going to be a very big tasks on Arteta boys.

Arsenal needs a prolific striker, depending on Gabriel Jesus is not a wise decision. He's Manchester city reject for a reason and the fact that Arteta is depending on premier league reject might turn out to be a great decision or a worst one. A worst one when they finish next season without important trophy but a smart move if they can win the champion league as they have a big game player like Kai Havertz. He's going to give them some champions league moment as he always does but can't deliver on every game day. I hope Arteta has backups because he needs to have them ready shey his initial plans don't give him what he wanted which is to win trophies.

Kane at united would be pretty good because he played in premier league all his life which means that he could be a great player there and could end up with a good amount of profit while playing for a team that plays in the same league.

At Bayern Munich he will most probably win a cup as well, they will most probably win the league as well, if they don't then that is going to be something troublesome and if he goes to United there is no guarantee of cup but nobody would put any pressure on him to win at least. That is why I believe that the least riskiest option would be United. All these are mute points as Tottenham asks for a lot of money and he is going to be not so young when his contract is over so either now or never for him.

The current round of the qualifiers has started with today's matches. Zalgiris - Galatasaray was one of those matches also. Truthfully I was expecting a comfortable match for Galatasaray. Wilfried Zaha and Bakambu couldn't play due to joining the team after the registration process ended for the first leg. But still there was a huge quality gap on paper.

However the match didn't start and continue just as I expected. Galatasaray were struggling to create absolute goal chances and finishing them with goals. Zalgiris found two absolute goal chances and wasted. But those were the signs of danger. Not much time after they really got 1-0 ahead.

This goal woke Galatasaray players up and they made a really good comeback to get 2-1 ahead. Still the match ended by 2-2. I guess there was some complacency there. But I believe Galatasaray can finish them off with a decent win in their own stadium in the second leg.

Season 2023/2024, there are no more excuses for the Gunner. now, they have quite competitive depth. starting from the main squad, as well as reserve players. even reportedly, Arteta is still monitoring market movements and it is very likely that he is aiming for several others to bring them to the Emirates Stadium. but I hope Arteta and Edu focus more on strikers who can be relied on to become goal getters. thus, this team is really well prepared to compete in all competitions.

Ideally, Arsenal's target is the Domestic League competition trophy. I have high hopes as a fan, if they can achieve it in the 2023/2024 season. for the Champions League I can't say much, because the young Gunners squad really needs a tested mentality and experience fighting other strong teams. so, it is not easy for Arsenal to become a challenger in the Champions League competition. here, there were many competitors stronger than them. at least, mentally. but as a fan, I hope Arteta can take his team as far as he can.

Arsenal should learn from previous experience where maybe their players are tired and maybe injured more easily so that at the end of the season it looks inconsistent so the chance to become the EPL champion failed after Manchester City overtook them, this season even Arsenal has two focuses apart from their domestic league they also started to focus on the UCL it is clear that players will tire easily if they divide the two focuses.

Arsenal really need to take in new players like young players which has been done by many clubs including Madrid to recruit young players to be able to focus on the UCL and the domestic league with young players obviously will not experience player fatigue especially of course performance will remain stable and stamina will also be maintained. there is a lot that arteta has to overhaul again, considering that the pre-season match yesterday lost against Manchester United.

Of course Arsenal's concentration will be divided because they follow several different competitions next season. One of the toughest competitions is the Champions League, so of course Arteta must make adjustments so that every player is ready to bring out their best. A busy schedule will force players to get tired, it will also increase the risk of injury. Arteta needs to have enough reserves to make his plans for next season go smoothly, but I'm sure he can adjust.

Arsenal have a good chance in the Champions League to qualify in the group stage, but we never know how they will perform in the Champions League. I hope they will be fine, at least make it to the quarter-finals or higher.

Yes, if you focus on the "brand" then the results in many pairs look obvious and there is a great desire to bet. What stops me is that in fact I don't know anything about the real game of these teams now - maybe the dark horse is actually stronger? Do bookmakers set odds based on the crowd that looks at the brand? It seems to me that it is worth waiting for the group stage and not taking the risk now (or bet on outsiders as they can be greatly underestimated).

I believe Tottenham will not sell Harry Kane this summer because they do not want him to leave the club now, which is why his transfer fees are quite high. His performance last season was very fantastic, as he was the second top goal scorer in the Premier League, and I believe he will perform even better next season. But I would like Harry Kane to leave Tottenham before the season begins; if he wants to win trophies, he should leave the Premier League and join another European league such as La Liga or League 1. I would also like him to join Real Madrid so that he can do great work and win the league with them, but I see Real Madrid are not interested in signing him again; they are focusing on other mbappe. Harry Kane need to leave Tottenham so that he can win champion league and other achievement, if he join another top team in Europe.
