    Liverpool were far more negative considering they were the home team and had the onus to attack. But whatever makes you feel better.

    United will show far more intent at OT than Liverpool did last night, and will likely win the game.
    Your second comment is based on what ?

    Oh and BTW:

    Take last season for example. After City won their first 5 games, I was so confident they would win the title that I placed a £42,000 bet on them to win the title. When they drew 0-0 with Leicester in December and lost 0-2 to Arsenal in January, (a win would have been tremendous as they would have made up grounds for Leicester dropped points and I believe they would have been top) and that's when I know my £42,000 is gone. I cashed out my bet, regrouped myself and analyzed the odds and started to find an accumulator of matches or an outright bet to cover losses I have incurred. I refused to believe Leicester would win the title so I ended up playing a 6 game accumulator with City being in top 4 in one of them and I ended up recovering most of my losses and only lost £2,100 in total.
    City did not lose 2-0 to Arsenal in January last year, it was a year before and not the same season when they won 5 in a row or Leicester won title. So again, you apparently put £42k on something but then mix up two seasons and don't even remember the story.

    Golden.

    Professional gambling is not really about luck, it's about analyzing pricing of games, probability and seeking games which are priced wrong. It's actually something that people make heavy money out of. It requires a lot of discipline, knowledge and connections but can be done. And it's hardly ever mainstream games because on those bookmakers will have done their thorough analysis and will have priced them well, and with the margin they put you cannot beat the house in the long term unless you're amazingly lucky.

    Betting on luck is just betting for fun, nothing professional about this. I do this, I lose more than I win but I do it for fun and don't mind to lose the amounts I bet because they're mostly negligible.
    It's still mostly luck when you can't control the outcome and your money is in the hands of 22 footballers kicking a ball or a group of athletes for that matter. Yes you can analyze the odds and do a thorough research and analysis but if a team you bet on is a goal down, there's nothing you can do about it except to pray. What can you do about this? Unless you know the match is already fixed, I don't see how its not about luck.

    Agree with you on the mainstream games which is why I have turned to Eastern European leagues recently but because they are such obscure teams from countries like Croatia, Estonia, Poland etc which no one has really hard of, I didn't bother to post them here. I think what you just said is more applicable to poker or casino betting.

    No, it's not luck. Every game has a probability of two or three outcomes, plus multiple combinations of precise score. This probability is possible to determine accurately, and you need to look for the games where it has not been. Betting accumulators and mainstream games is largely luck though.

    What Polish teams do you like to bet on, out of curiosity? There's serious money to be made in 2nd and 3rd division here.

    Professional display, if we opened up we would have got beat.

    My biggest worry is Zlatan, his lack of movement is causing issues in my opinion.
    I don't really think he could have done much else to be honest. We were set up to play as a sponge and he rarely got decent service - having said that he should have buried his header from Pogba's cross.

    I agree his game isn't really based around being mobile so if we are setting up in that way, we might as well have Rashford lone striker as he has pace.

    United will attack more at home.

    What do you think Liverpool will do ?

    Probably not actually considering his away record thus far against the top 4 candidates. Beat Chelsea (twice). Beat City & Arsenal. Drew with Spurs (twice).

    Still, there's a first time for everything.
    You lost to Leicester away when they were top 4 candidates

    Leave him to it. He's a bellend.

    Anybody with any intelligence would have seen that as an oppurtunity for a good football debate.
