oi oi! this thread was in the 3rd page, Wtf?  Grin

I really don't know why but my interest have been on a consistent decline, I'm literally short of updates on the league at large, almost every other team seem non-existing to me to say the least, I don't know who signed who or sold who, other than Barcelona transfer details, and the Tchouameni deal with Real Madrid, that's as far as I can tell on La Liga prior to coming season.

This year we will not have free bet challenge.


I guess the Yellow cap makes up for that right ? There was no reward for yellow caps last season...

We'll probably just need to keep tabs on CasperBGD this season, I don't think I won a single yellow cap for entirety of last season, hopefully I won't be as shitty as I was then.

This year we will not have free bet challenge. Instead we will have at least one and probably more competitions with merchandise as rewards and we will award yellow cap as mentioned above.

I like it, free bet challenge was good, but this seems better from my point of view
it is a win-win situation for them, if you like to wear merch with their sign, basically free marketing
is there a plan to include Sao Paolo merch as well?

have a nice vacation

Even on holiday I am working on sponsorship details so we have it as follows:
*0.5 mBTC free bet for all participants paid when the league starts and we have final number of participants
*1 mBTC for each week yellow cap winner

This year we will not have free bet challenge. Instead we will have at least one and probably more competitions with merchandise as rewards and we will award yellow cap as mentioned above.

Well i think its really good, its more simple than last year and you have less work to do for know who are the winner of the freebets.

This preseason was really strange for me, i was plenty of work and cant see so much of football, also year by year i was more and more without wanting to see preseason games, for me are boring.

Or im becoming old? hahaha

We have a nice conversation here in the pool but there isn't many of us signed just yet. We have 7 players so far and I know we will get to 10 but that is still way lower than I expected.

Spread the word in some other topicks if you find good opportunity guys.

I mentioned it once in main La Liga thread but it gets lost quickly there.
huh, i didn't know the pool was open, i must've missed the post  Grin will pay soon. i'll try to spread the word in the Esports thread, i think there's a few users who could be interested in joining a pool

btw, don't waste your time in the megathreads, they average 5-6 pages per day, too many bots and mindless drones posting there :/
I know and I avoid them usually but someone tagged me there to remind me to change the thread name. So I did that, put up the new poll and used the opportunity to spread the word about the pool. Did same for premier league even thiugh it isn't my pool Grin

Edit: paid for myself and cryptofrka

Anyone want to hazard a guess at next seasons Caponieri or whatever Golden Boot (yeah, on mobile, can't be bothered to look it up)?

i'm gonna go with a super bold prediction: top scorer will be either Benzema or Lewa,, i know i know, no one saw that coming 🤭

seriously tho, i'll give the edge to Benz... new faces in Barca's attack, i could see them struggling to link up in a few matches, and it's world cup year so there's going to be a lot squad rotation, and since Real doesn't have squad depth (yet), Benz will be in charge of goals week in and week out

No way, it never crossed my mind until now actually!

And not that I'm a hater, I love both those two, and always have a soft spot for overlooked older players, but I really don't think both will be able to continue their form. One will, or both won't.

My dumb prediction for La Liga goals is an unlikely weird goal partnership between Auba/Lewa. I think you're right, many new faces, but sometimes chemistry happens and I hope it does for these two vets.

Edit: guys, help Trofo out and talk about the pools in threads you're active in yeah?

looking at friendlies, would not count out Dembele for next season, somehow I do not believe in Lewa/Barca mix, and he is too old to fight with youngsters

Benz is top for Real, on the other side, and it is hard to foreseen other club forwards to get that title

overall, @2.2 Lewa is not value pick, IMO

Barcelona and Chelsea are both big clubs and they are both in chaos from finance to club ownership and changes in club management and strategies. They all familiar with their coaches but Chelsea have more challenges and candidate competitors in Premier League than Barcelona have in La Liga.
Chelsea will have to beat 4 to 5 clubs to win Premier League but in La Liga, Barcelona will have to beat 2 Madrid clubs to win La Liga.
Of course Barcelona is the most favourable side where players would like to play when Chelsea and Barcelona is in the race of signing players ,had Chelsea FC understood that concept they wouldn't have loose out those players to the hands of Barcelona by not giving them chance in the business.

Tuchel and Xavi actually got experience from their past seasons with Barcelona and Chelsea so in a new season, players won't have to worry that they have to work with a new coach with strange management.

Looking at coaching experience there is no way you can compare Thomas Tuchel with Xavi when it comes to coaching , Xavi is still getting to understand coaching while Tuchel has been there for a while and got experience more than Xavi, remember that being a coach and being a player is two different things, I have seen credible players that couldn't make a good coach.

I prefer to think we just need to do out jobs against the Elches and the Valencias and the spoiler clubs. It's usually there where we lose a lot of points. But of course, truth about the Madrid clubs. It's true we had a nice Clasico win last season but that was the first in maybe 3 or 4 seasons I can remember.

Without giving it too much thought, I belive that Barca success over Chelsea in this transfer window comes from few very simple facts:
1. Players would rather boast to their children that they played for Barca, screw Chelsea, Barca is still much bigger name
2. They know Chelsea will not win premiership while Barca is probably first favorite for title in Spain. All the main players in Real are one year older and they are reaching their limits. There will have to be generation change and we all sow how it looked in first half against Barca when old-timers weren't on the pitch.

Barcelona have good attacking system and Lewandowski has good skills to convert opportunity to goal. Benzema with a fantastic goal to Club America shows that after a summer holiday, he is still here with great finishes. Their clubs are two best clubs in La Liga so they will be best candidates for Pinichi in La Liga 2022 - 2023. Lewandowski will have to rely more on his mates because it will be his first season in a new a club and new league.

It is not about pure stats and objective view here, it is all about prestige and percived greats. Barca is one of the European greats and Chelsea is not, it is as simple as that.

Same goes for Milan, and they are rubish for a very long time. While City is arguably best team in the world but does not have that same name pedigree.

Sorry but have to agree with Trofo here, prestige you can only earn with history. I don't even mind saying Liverpool was shit for an entire 2 decades when I was watching them, and yes, they didn't get many young fans where I was, those all wore Chelse or later City blue, but it was still a bigger name.

Like Liverpool, Milan's also been shit for a time, and arguably I'd say Napoli even have bigger prestige then Newcastle if they suddenly bought the title.

talking about barca, anyone watching Barcelona v Juventus tonight?
There is some really good memes on Chelsea-Barca situation, cracking me up on twitter several times per day Smiley

I would really want to watch Barca tonight but it is middle of the night for me, early morning, to be exact 2 AM and I am getting up for work at 6 AM. No way I can squeeze even a halftime of Barca and be able to function properly tomorrow. Screw that USA market and popularity contest. Why can't we have proper friendly games in Europe?

Still placed a bet on Barca ML @1.8 and odds have now fallen under 1.7 so I guess I have value, now it just needs to come Smiley


Yeah, no way I'm going to miss that, I'd like to see what Barcelona could look like for the new season, it's scheduled for 1:30 AM in my local time, I really don't understand why they usually opt for USA and the some times middle east for these game, but my best guess is it going to be a combination of the sponsorships, aesthetics and for the obvious fact that play all season long in Europe, what could be better than having a summer holiday in the United States while combining a bit of work and majorly pleasure and potential sponsorship deals, I guess being used to NBA and it's game time line made it a bit easier for me to stay up for games like these occasionally.

I really think like igehhh, Barcelona its selling the soul at the evil, i think in a few years or the Catalonian government save the club or they have to sell the club to the arabs.

The main problem with Barcelona its the people itself, because they have a lot of "foreign fans" and not real fans as i see.
Another problem its the lie of the "La Macia" im not saying they dont make good players but..... man Barcelona spends thousand of euros buying players in all the markets, at the same level of Real Madrid, but all the press and the people keep caliming "Barcelona its a team who only play with the players of his lower divisions" come on man..... And now we see the results a Broke club.
