  42. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gambling is a common hobby among many. But, just like drugs, it can stimulate your brain, leading to addiction. When you are addicted to gambling, you may chase losing bets and end up in debt.</p>
  43. <p>You may also try to hide the behavior from loved ones, feel anxious and irritable, and borrow or steal to gamble more. There are various signs to show that you may be addicted to gambling. These include;</p>
  44. <ol>
  45. <li><strong> Betting constantly</strong></li>
  46. </ol>
  47. <p>You may be regularly preoccupied with gambling and may want to do it often. You may also think of how to get more gambling money and want to bet more and more to get the same thrill. This may lead to you neglecting essential bills, thus plunging into debt. However, you can always <a href="https://thegamblingclinic.com/">get gambling help</a> from most outpatient addiction facilities.</p>
  48. <ol start="2">
  49. <li><strong> Feeling restless</strong></li>
  50. </ol>
  51. <p>You may want to quit gambling, and this will make you irritable and restless. You may then want to gamble more to deal with the feeling of stress and depression. You may also start lying to loved ones to get more money from them or gamble more to recover lost money.</p>
  52. <ol start="3">
  53. <li><strong> Losing jobs&amp; meaningful relationships</strong></li>
  54. </ol>
  55. <p>Gambling addiction may lead to loss of employment. You may miss work most of the time, leading to termination. You may also miss on promising job opportunities due to the vice. It can also strain your relationship with loved ones and colleagues and ask friends to bail you out because of betting all your money. You may even steal from colleagues and friends to get enough money for gambling activities.</p>
  56. <p><strong>What are the risk factors for gambling?</strong></p>
  57. <p>Various issues increase your likelihood of gambling addiction;</p>
  58. <p>These include;</p>
  59. <ul>
  60. <li><strong>Mental health problems</strong></li>
  61. </ul>
  62. <p>People with substance abuse issues are highly likely to get addicted to gambling. They are prone to personality disorders, anxiety, and depression that can lead to indulging in escape behaviors like gambling.</p>
  63. <ul>
  64. <li><strong>Age&amp;Sex</strong></li>
  65. </ul>
  66. <p>Young people are most likely to engage in gambling. Teenagers have a lot of free time and fewer or no responsibilities, and gambling at this age increases the likelihood of addiction. However, some older people also get addicted.</p>
  67. <p>Also, most men start gambling earlier in life than women and are likely to become addicts. However, gambling is also popular among women nowadays.</p>
  68. <ul>
  69. <li><strong>Influence by friends</strong></li>
  70. </ul>
  71. <p>If your friends gamble often, you are highly likely to get into gambling.</p>
  72. <p><strong>When to seek help</strong></p>
  73. <p>There is no sure way to avoid gambling, but there are various programs that can help you deal with gambling addiction. These mainly include educational and counseling sessions that can help deal with the compulsive behavior. It’s also advisable to avoid casinos or other places where gambling takes place. The professional will determine your issue, the causes, and the risk factors and walk with you on your recovery journey.</p>
  74. <p><strong> Conclusion</strong></p>
  75. <p>Professional gamblers set a stop-loss limit on how much they can afford to lose. But addicts keep chasing losing bets until they lose more. If you have the mentioned signs, seek professional help to deal with the addiction. You can overcome and regain your life with the right guidance.</p>

  132. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Buongiorno, my friends! AI Fabrizio Romano here with the latest transfer news that has the football world buzzing. Brace yourselves, as we dive into the thrilling world of player negotiations and club ambitions.</p>
  133. <p>Let&#8217;s kick things off with an intriguing proposition. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/jul/08/chelsea-want-40m-for-romelu-lukaku-amid-juventus-and-al-hilal-interest">Juventus has made an audacious offer to Chelsea</a>, proposing a deal that would see Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic, a promising 23-year-old talent, join the Blues. The proposed package includes a fee of 25 million euros (£21.4 million) plus the inclusion of Belgium&#8217;s striking powerhouse, Romelu Lukaku. Hold your breath, though, as Lukaku himself seems willing to take a £1 million-per-year pay cut to secure a permanent return to Inter Milan after his loan spell. The stage is set for a captivating transfer saga and you have to assume Juventus have some must-have soccer data if they think Lukaku is a good idea &#8211; their <a href="https://www.sportmonks.com/soccer-api/">soccer API</a> is believed to be one of the better ones in the game, so maybe they know something the rest of us do not?</p>
  134. <p>In a cunning move to drive up the price, Chelsea has notified Inter of Juventus&#8217; interest in Lukaku. This revelation has left Juve less than pleased, setting the scene for a tense negotiation battle. Stay tuned for the fireworks, my friends!</p>
  135. <p>Shifting our focus to Germany, Bayern Munich has made an improved offer for Tottenham&#8217;s golden boy, Harry Kane. The Bavarian giants have put forward <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12280837/Tottenham-REJECT-new-70million-offer-Bayern-Munich-Harry-Kane.html">a jaw-dropping offer of £70 million</a> plus add-ons for the services of the prolific England striker. Brace yourselves, football aficionados, as the saga surrounding Kane&#8217;s future reaches new heights. Will he remain at Spurs or embark on a new chapter in Munich?</p>
  136. <p>In the Middle East, newly appointed Al-Ettifaq manager Steven Gerrard has engaged in talks with <a href="https://premiersoccerchat.com/2021/09/18/the-statistics-liverpool-move-to-top-spot-by-beating-crystal-palace/">Crystal Palace</a>&#8216;s Ivorian winger, Wilfried Zaha. The 30-year-old, whose contract with the Eagles has expired, is considering a tempting £16 million-per-year move to Saudi Arabia. Gerrard aims to add Zaha&#8217;s electrifying skills to his squad, and negotiations are underway.</p>
  137. <p>Manchester United is preparing to submit a fresh bid to Atalanta for Rasmus Hojlund, the highly-rated 20-year-old Danish striker. The Red Devils have already reached an agreement in principle with the young talent, paving the way for a contract extension until 2028. United is determined to secure the services of this promising forward and strengthen their squad for the future.</p>
  138. <p>Aston Villa has their sights set on Moussa Diaby, the talented 24-year-old winger from Bayer Leverkusen. However, Villa will need to break their club record by paying a hefty £50 million to bring the Frenchman to Villa Park. The price may be steep, but Diaby&#8217;s potential impact on Villa&#8217;s attack cannot be underestimated.</p>
  139. <p>In London, both Fulham and Crystal Palace have expressed interest in Barcelona&#8217;s dynamic USA full-back, Sergino Dest. The 22-year-old&#8217;s versatility and skill have caught the attention of these Premier League clubs, and negotiations are ongoing. Keep an eye on this developing story, my friends.</p>
  140. <p>Wolfsburg has taken a strong stance regarding their prized Dutch defender, Micky van de Ven. They are prepared to retain the 22-year-old if Tottenham fails to meet their demanding £40 million asking price. It seems Wolfsburg is not willing to part ways with their defensive gem without a significant financial incentive.</p>
  141. <p>Leicester City&#8217;s Harvey Barnes, the talented 25-year-old England winger, has expressed his desire to move to Newcastle United this summer. As Barnes seeks a new challenge, the Magpies are eager to bolster their attacking ranks with his skills. Will a deal be struck? Time will tell, my friends.</p>
  142. <p>Manchester United&#8217;s Brazilian midfield maestro, Fred, has recently changed agents amidst interest from Fulham and clubs in Saudi Arabia. The 30-year-old&#8217;s future remains uncertain, but the renewed attention certainly adds an interesting twist to his story.</p>
  143. <p>Over in France, Paris St-Germain is considering Napoli&#8217;s Victor Osimhen, the 24-year-old Nigerian striker, as a potential replacement for the wantaway French forward, Kylian Mbappe. With rumors swirling and uncertainty surrounding Mbappe&#8217;s future, PSG is actively exploring options to ensure their attack remains formidable.</p>
  144. <p>USA legend Landon Donovan has criticized Chelsea&#8217;s American winger, Christian Pulisic, for his decision to join AC Milan instead of pursuing a move to Major League Soccer. Pulisic&#8217;s choice has sparked a lively debate among football enthusiasts, with opinions divided on his career trajectory.</p>
  145. <p>Roma boss Jose Mourinho has his eyes set on Manchester United&#8217;s Scottish midfielder, Scott McTominay. The Special One&#8217;s interest in acquiring the 26-year-old adds another layer of intrigue to this transfer window.</p>
  146. <p>Staying with Roma, they are also eyeing Bayern Munich&#8217;s Austrian midfield maestro, Marcel Sabitzer. The 29-year-old, who had a loan spell at Manchester United last season, is on Roma&#8217;s radar as they seek to strengthen their midfield options. Will Sabitzer make the move to the Eternal City? We await further developments.</p>
  147. <p>Meanwhile, Manchester United and Newcastle United are exploring the potential signing of Monaco&#8217;s French defender, Axel Disasi. While no formal bids have been submitted, both clubs are showing interest in the talented 25-year-old. Keep an eye on this situation, my friends.</p>
  148. <p>On the move to England, Netherlands defender Jurrien Timber has completed a medical with Arsenal. The 22-year-old Ajax starlet returned home for a farewell party, indicating an imminent move to the Gunners. Arsenal fans, get ready to welcome a promising talent to your ranks!</p>
  149. <p>In Sheffield, the Blades are eyeing Nottingham Forest&#8217;s dynamic English midfielder, Lewis O&#8217;Brien. The 24-year-old&#8217;s flair and energy have caught the attention of Sheffield United, who are eager to bolster their squad for the upcoming season.</p>
  150. <p>Everton has extended an offer to former England full-back Ashley Young. The 38-year-old, whose contract with Aston Villa has expired, is being courted by the Toffees for his experience and versatility. Will Young embrace a new challenge at Goodison Park?</p>
  151. <p>Brazilian defender Thiago Silva recently engaged in a conversation with Roma&#8217;s Argentine forward, Paulo Dybala, at the British Grand Prix. Silva inquired about reports linking Dybala with a move to Chelsea, adding a dash of intrigue to the ongoing transfer talks.</p>
  152. <p>Liverpool is open to allowing English defender Nat Phillips to join Leeds United, but only on a permanent deal. The 26-year-old&#8217;s future at Anfield hangs in the balance as Leeds considers a move for the promising defender.</p>
  153. <p>Manchester United is willing to entertain loan offers for Ivorian winger Amad Diallo. The 20-year-old spent last season on loan at Sunderland and could be available for another loan stint. Watch this space for potential suitors, my friends.</p>
  154. <p>In Watford, former England midfielder Jake Livermore played as a trialist in a friendly against Arsenal after being released by West Brom. Livermore aims to impress and secure a contract with the Hornets. Will this veteran midfielder find a new home in Watford?</p>
  155. <p>Lastly, West Ham has registered their interest in signing Senegal forward Habib Diallo from Strasbourg. The 28-year-old&#8217;s potential move to the Hammers is being closely monitored, and negotiations are ongoing.</p>
  156. <p>That&#8217;s all for now, my friends! Stay tuned for more thrilling transfer updates, as the summer window continues to captivate the footballing world. Until next time, this is AI Fabrizio Romano signing off!</p>

  171. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><b>Why The Premier League is Different: The Intensity of the EPL</b></h1>
  172. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Few things are more common sense among footballers than the fact that the English Premier League has something special about it. </span></p>
  173. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The EPL is a different tournament. And I don’t mean some obvious things, for example, the number of fouls, the difference in style of the referees, comparing, for example, with La Liga.</span></p>
  174. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It might be a weird way to summarize it, but it almost looks like the players care more about what they’re doing! The Beautiful Game is far more intense than at any domestic league in the world.</span></p>
  175. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When the EPL was popularizing some 15 years ago back in the era of the first big team of Chelsea with Mourinho, I remember an interview of Florent Malouda mentioning that he was surprised when he moved to London: the nutritionists of Chelsea told him that it was ok to drink Coca Cola, because he would spend a lot of energy on the pitch.</span></p>
  176. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I have no idea if that is still the case and how rigorous the nutrition staff of the clubs are these days. But we can’t argue that Ligue 1 can hardly compete with the Prem in terms of how much energy footballers get to spend. It’s just beautiful to watch, every game is a fierce battle like nowhere else in the world.</span></p>
  177. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But there’s quite a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure the players are fit and ready for every battle (or match) in each game week of the English Premier League. Doctors, physiologists, nutritionists, and fitness staff determine the best set of exercises for each player according to age and other factors, there’s quite a lot of work between the matches to make sure we get to see the best spectacle possible.</span></p>
  178. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To a person that isn’t a professional athlete, the question may be just </span><a href="https://www.trainwithkickoff.com/blog/how-often-should-you-eat"><span style="font-weight: 400;">how often you should eat</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, but when it comes to footballers at the top flight, there are several other questions around it, such as what exactly they need to eat, what are the best protein supplements and several other questions such as sleep cycles, dosing enzymes and a myriad of measurements of their performances.</span></p>
  179. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If football evolved to such a physical battle, especially in the EPL and other big competitions like the Champions League, where English teams are big protagonists, this is due to the work of several professionals behind the scenes, not to mention the commitment of the players themselves.</span></p>
  180. <h2><b>The Future of Player Fitness in the EPL</b></h2>
  181. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most veteran fans that follow the sport since the 20</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">th</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> century could predict that some stuff was going to evolve when it comes to preparing the players to do their best on the pitch, but the degree of commitment required to be a professional these days is probably unthinkable for anyone following football in the 80s or the 90s. </span></p>
  182. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Some players like Cristiano Ronaldo take fitness and professional behaviour to an extreme level, but even the average players just must take the job seriously if they want to play in the EPL or the 5 big leagues of Europe.</span></p>
  183. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The future of the sport should be evermore interesting as science evolves and more tools are given to the professionals behind the fitness of our favourite stars of the beautiful game in the EPL.</span></p>

  198. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Champions League Outright Betting Preview</h2>
  199. <p>Next week Europe will see the beginning of the second leg of the UEFA Champions League 2022/23. The betting community is also excited about the return of the biggest soccer competition in the world, and the outright market is no exception.</p>
  200. <p>The results of the first leg certainly impacted the odds, and the expectation around what teams will progress to the quarter-finals alongside team news like injuries and suspensions are part of the elements that explain the current betting odds of the international markets for the UEFA Champions League title of 2022/23.</p>
  201. <p>Let&#8217;s have a look at the market odds and understand why they have stabilized like this as of March 4th, 2023, but before that, let&#8217;s learn a little about how professional <a href="https://tipsterreviews.co.uk/who-are-the-most-profitable-football-tipsters/">football tipsters </a>usually gamble to make a profit by betting on who will win tournaments like the UCL!</p>
  202. <h2>Professional Betting Tips for Outright Markets</h2>
  203. <p>The outright betting market can be compared to a stock market in some ways. You need to buy teams that are cheap in order to make a profit. The reason behind it is simple: betting odds are also called &#8216;prices&#8217; because they fluctuate according to the perceptions of a market, just like stocks in the NYSE or goods in a supermarket, for example.</p>
  204. <p>The odds for the Champions League Winner change a lot before and during the UCL season. That is correct. You can bet on the winner before the tournament begins, and during the final game too.</p>
  205. <p>If a team has poor results in the group stage, in their domestic league, or too many injuries, for example, their odds will &#8216;grow&#8217; or &#8216;rise&#8217; as the betting professionals say.</p>
  206. <p>But if they qualify with 18 points in the group stage and are leading their domestic league, their odds will become attractive, and when the bookies sell the same odds too often, that makes them drop significantly.</p>
  207. <p>But market swings are actually powerful tools to make big profits. The key to doing that is to buy teams that have big odds, but that have good chances of going far in the tournament.</p>
  208. <p>For example, Manchester City is the favourite team to win the UCL with odds ranging between 2.88 and 3.1, on average, but after they failed to win against RB Leipzig on the road, their odds increased a little, as they were expected to travel back to England with 3 points and not just one.</p>
  209. <p>Some bookies freeze the outright betting market during games, but you can usually find them available even while matches unfold in the Round of 16.</p>
  210. <p>Let&#8217;s suppose that Manchester City has bad injury news ahead of the game, and RB Leipzig scores early in the second game, that can make the odds for Man City to win &#8216;rise&#8217; a little, while the odds of other contenders like FC Bayern or Real Madrid will decrease a bit, as a consequence of the market stabilization.</p>
  211. <h2><strong>Current Odds for the UCL 2022/23 Winner</strong></h2>
  212. <p>After Man City with odds around 3.0 on average in the European decimal system, we have FC Bayern with odds around 4.33 to 4.5 depending on the bookie you choose, followed by Real Madrid with odds ranging between 6.5 and 7.2, and available at most online gambling houses with odds of 7.0.</p>
  213. <p>Underdogs tend to have big odds in any market and this one is no exception. Napoli can&#8217;t be considered underdogs as their odds are quite close to Madrid&#8217;s ones, but PSG and Chelsea already fall into that category with odds around 20 to 1.</p>
  214. <p>Eintracht Frankfurt and Brugge are the big underdogs with odds in the house of 751 to 1 on average!</p>

Among other things, some of these considerations are dependent on the caliber of the league, the caliber of the clubs, the number of trophies won in the league and the popularity of the league.</span></p>
  349. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Numerous fans worldwide who participate in sports betting on these leagues monitor and follow them. Some will use classic betting markets, while others will look at the </span><a href="https://www.oddsmonkey.com/matched-betting/what-is-matched-betting/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">matched betting</span></a> market<span style="font-weight: 400;">, which can help to enhance the overall experiences enjoyed once learned.</span></p>
  350. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The top five football leagues worldwide are listed below.</span></p>
  351. <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Premier League</span></h2>
  352. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In 1992, England&#8217;s premier football competition, the <a href="http://premierleague.com">Premier League</a>, was established. The league has risen to the top slot as a result of the domination of English clubs in Europe throughout the years. Manchester City is the Premier League&#8217;s reigning champion, while Manchester United, with 13 titles, is the league&#8217;s all-time champion.</span></p>
  353. <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">La Liga</span></h2>
  354. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The best Spanish football competition, La Liga, was founded in 1929. Real Madrid and Barcelona, two of the league&#8217;s top teams, have dominated on both the local and international fronts. Real Madrid FC, which has 35 championships overall, is the current La Liga champion.</span></p>
  355. <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Serie A</span></h2>
  356. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since its founding in 1898, the Italian league Serie A has grown to become one of the best in the world. It is the top-tier football league in Italy. Ac Milan, Inter Milan, and Juventus have dominated the league on a national and European level. Ac Milan is the current Serie A champion, but Juventus FC has won 36 Serie A championships overall.</span></p>
  357. <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bundesliga</span></h2>
  358. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">German football&#8217;s highest division, the <a href="http://bundesliga.com">Bundesliga</a>, was established in 1963. This league, which is among the best in the world, has seen Bayern Munich FC dominate on the domestic and European fronts. Bayern Munich, the league&#8217;s reigning champion and all-time leader with 31 trophies, is the current Bundesliga champion.</span></p>
  359. <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ligue 1</span></h2>
  360. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It was founded in 1930 and is now France&#8217;s highest football league. Although the Ligue has not exactly conquered Europe, their caliber has allowed them to be included in the list of the top leagues. The league&#8217;s dominant team for 10 of the past 11 years is Paris Saint-Germain, who share the record for most trophies won with Saint-Etienne with 10 apiece.</span></p>
  361. <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Conclusion</span></h3>
  362. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There is no doubt that these five leagues are among the best in the world, and it just so happens that they all in European countries. While football is a sport that is enjoyed all over the world and is fiercely loved by passionate fans all over, it would seem Europe is the place to be!</span></p>

  377. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><b>Ronaldo Starting From the Bench?</b></h1>
  378. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Portuguese football fans lived an evening of football that won’t be forgotten. Hours before the game, it sounded like Ronaldo was living some kind of ongoing nightmare, now repeating its pattern in the national team, just like the horrid days he lived in the UK prior to the World Cup.</span></p>
  379. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But that was an unlikely or very unexpected scenario before the tournament. Ronaldo is the leader of this team, and many see Fernando Santos as irrelevant, with Ronaldo being the true leader and almost coach of the team.</span></p>
  380. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fans will keep discussing this at the communities for a long time, and when it comes to places to see content like that, <a href="https://www.xn--c3cumaaab8a4dm6ea3c9mkcj3b8fk.com/"><span data-sheets-value="{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot; เว็บไซต์พนันออนไลน์.com for Thailand&quot;}"> เว็บไซต์พนันออนไลน์.com for Thailand</span></a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is a great choice. </span></p>
  381. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s fair to say that occasions from the past when CR7 has stood by the side of the coach giving instructions to the team after being subbed have contributed to this notion.</span></p>
  382. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And after another unpleasing substitution, Ronaldo complained about Fernando Santos. Few could believe that the Portuguese coach would actually bench Ronaldo in the Round of 16 of the World Cup against Switzerland. But he did it. And the result couldn’t be crazier.</span></p>
  383. <p><b>Gonçalo Ramos: Hat Trick as a 21 in a World Cup?</b></p>
  384. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What if the coach was beyond lucky. What if a young attacker, 21, could score a hat trick when replacing Ronaldo for a stupid fight with the coach?</span></p>
  385. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And guess what: his hat trick would account for only 50% of the goals of Portugal in the historic victory over the Swiss team?</span></p>
  386. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All these things happened yesterday. Switzerland, a notable team in the history of the World Cup because of the way they defend, now marked by an impressive loss involving six goals.</span></p>
  387. <p><b>Portugal and their Chances to Win the World Cup</b></p>
  388. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Portugal surely gained traction with this victory and they were lucky enough to see their neighbours and rivals Spain losing to Morocco, which means they have an accessible path towards the semi-finals. </span></p>
  389. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Then they would have to be brave, to beat France, for example. But they did just that in the 2016 Euros final! </span></p>
  390. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And if they get to be in the final, then it’s only one game and anything could happen.</span></p>
  391. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Portugal started the World Cup without that much brilliance in their performances, and they almost dropped points against Ghana due to a stupid mistake in the last moments of the game. </span></p>
  392. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sometimes, it takes a little bit of luck and some amazing, unbelievable stories to lead you across the way towards a World Cup final.</span></p>
  393. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It certainly happened before at top-level football.</span></p>
  394. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just in this century, we’ve witnessed amazing stories like the Euro 2004 title of Greece against Portugal, and the Leicester title of the Premier League a few years ago at the club level.</span></p>
  395. <p><b>Summary</b></p>
  396. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When Ronaldo was announced as a benched guy to this game against Switzerland, reportedly many fans across the globe didn’t even watch the beginning of the match. Ronaldo has fans that care a lot about him and little about Portugal as they are foreigners. It must be like that because we only have 11 million Portuguese citizens in the world, and hundreds of millions of Instagram followers following CR7.</span></p>
  397. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, it turned out to be perhaps the best performance ever of Portugal without Ronaldo in the last decade.</span></p>

  412. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When Tottenham lost 2-1 to Liverpool at home on Super Sunday, they fell eight points behind their North London rivals. Parts of the Tottenham Hotspur <a href="https://unitedramble.com/">Stadium</a> crowd were audible during the game, especially at halftime when Spurs were down 2-0.</p>
  413. <p>Conte&#8217;s side have already lost to Arsenal, Manchester United and Newcastle this term, but Souness told Sky Sports: &#8220;Spurs supporters should be happy.</p>
  414. <p>&#8220;What compounds their problem is the fact that the team up the road are doing well and they are perceived as playing a brand of football which is deemed attractive.</p>
  415. <p>&#8220;I think Spurs have got the right manager and some really good players.</p>
  416. <p>&#8220;They will do well. Slowly, slowly, don&#8217;t be critical, let the team evolve and support them.</p>
  417. <p>&#8220;The support could be better. They are a demanding crowd. They feel they should have more. But l think if Arsenal were below them they wouldn&#8217;t be making the same noises.&#8221;</p>
  418. <p>Conte&#8217;s perceived <a href="https://premiersoccerchat.com/2022/10/25/why-the-premier-league-is-the-worlds-best-football-league/">pragmatic</a> style of play has alienated some fans, but Gary Neville still believes Spurs will finish in the top four this term.</p>
  419. <p>&#8220;Just because of the manager,&#8221; Neville argued. &#8220;He gets results.</p>
  420. <p>&#8220;But there will always be that undercurrent with Conte that the football isn&#8217;t quite what you want to see. I hope they do keep with him for three or four years but there is a style demand at Tottenham &#8211; there always has been.&#8221;</p>
  421. <p>Fellow Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher joined the debate, tweeting: &#8220;Antonio Conte won&#8217;t change, he has had great success in his career with his system/tactics.</p>
  422. <p>“You know what you&#8217;re getting before he comes, so blame (Daniel) Levy if you&#8217;re not happy. Got <a href="https://premiersoccerchat.com/2022/10/26/tottenham-believes-that-harry-kane-will-sign-a-new-long-term-contract/">Spurs</a> top 4, last 16CL &amp; in the top 4 right now. Defenders &amp; keeper are not at the level he needs.&#8221;</p>
  423. <p>Tottenham&#8217;s final league game before the Premier League is halted for the winter World Cup is another home fixture against Leeds United next Saturday.</p>
  424. <p>Conte himself said he was &#8220;disappointed&#8221; by the booing from the home crowd which <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2022/11/8/qatar-national-teams-road-to-the-world-cup">greeted</a> the half-time whistle.</p>
  425. <p>&#8220;First of all, I think we have to show in every moment great respect for our fans because they are our fans, they pay the tickets &#8211; at the same time if you ask me if I was a bit disappointed, yes,&#8221; Conte said.</p>

  440. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no doubt that any club with a player like Harry Kane on its books will be hoping they can do all they can to convince them to sign a long-term contract, and Tottenham Hotspur will certainly be looking to try and make that happen.</p>
  441. <p>The striker &#8211; who will likely lead England out as captain in the forthcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup, has a contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium that runs until 2024, thus building speculation about where he could potentially end up playing his football in the future.</p>
  442. <p>FC Bayern Munich are understood to be potential suitors if he does become available, although Spurs appear to be confident that they can keep him in north London for as long as they want him, with it understood that he is happy playing under Antonio Conte and believes the club can challenge.</p>
  443. <p>He and England<span style="font-weight: 400;"> football fans are hopeful that he is able to perform at the World Cup once again, though, as he won the Golden Boot at the last tournament. Many are hoping he can repeat his feat, and have spent time looking at the odds that he has been provided to be the Golden Boot winner, with predictions having already been made available at online betting sites that can be found on platforms like </span><a href="https://www.nhacaiuytin8888.com"><span style="font-weight: 400;">nhacaiuytin8888.com</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
  444. <p>Nonetheless, <a href="https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/">Spurs</a> fans will be more concerned with whether they are able to keep hold of him. And, thankfully, there appears to be some confidence around them. This is because they <span style="font-weight: 400;">believe Kane will stay, however it is not expected that talks about a new deal will happen before the end of the year.</span></p>
  445. <p>It is rumored that the club would prefer to sort a deal out for the 29-year-old before the conclusion of this season and before the summer transfer window, especially with it believed FC Bayern could be prepared to try and convince him to swap north London for Bavaria.</p>
  446. <p>Indeed, they have already made their interest known by dropping hints. Nonetheless, the issues that surrounded his future last summer do not appear to have had much bearing on how he is doing this season, as he <span style="font-weight: 400;">has scored 11 goals in 16 competitions this season, 10 of which have come in 12 </span><a href="https://www.premierleague.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Premier League</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> games.</span></p>
  447. <p>Spurs currently occupy third in the table, but their defeat to Newcastle United at the weekend meant that they had dropped vital points in the race for the title. Manchester City returned to winning ways, while league leaders Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw with Southampton, leaving Spurs five points behind them.</p>
