    Sander Westerveld believes Arne Slot will not be overawed by the challenge of following the footsteps of Jurgen Klopp.
     
    The former Reds goalkeeper who made 75 appearances in a two and a bit season stint at the club is close friends with the man who has been identified as the next manager.
     
    Westerveld and Slot played a season together at Sparta Rotterdam in the 2007/8  campaign and speaking to The Telegraph (per the Echo)  he believed  the 45 year- old had the ability to be a top-line manager.
     
    “When I played with Arne at Sparta, you could see that he would become. He was a leader, a No10 midfielder and someone who would change tactics by himself.
     
    “I spoke to him this morning and he just said it is not a secret that Liverpool wants him but that he could not say anything. I hope it will happen."
     

     
    The member of the 2001 treble winning squad said that the ability of Slot to work within a budget means that he would be well suited to the financial model implemented by Liverpool!
     
    “The job he has done at Feyenoord makes him the perfect fit for Liverpool… When he signed for Feyenoord they sold the best player, Steven Berghuis, to Ajax and they didn’t have lots of money to spend.
     
    Everyone said it would be difficult, but Arne said: “No, no, I will make this happen.” A year later he became the champion of Holland with this team and that is why I think there are similarities with Liverpool.
     

     
    “Liverpool have a lot of potential in the squad, and we don’t have the money that Manchester City have to spend, so I think he will get all the potential out of the players.”
     
    Westerveld said another benefit is the way that Slot looks to plqy his Football.
     
    “He plays in the same style as Jurgen Klopp: sexy football, forward pressing and the percentage of ball recoveries in the opposition half is the highest in Holland. When he loses the ball, he wants the ball back in three seconds.
     
    But while Klopp brought success to Liverpool on the pitch, what truly made him special was his ability to strike up relationships with his players and just as importantly the fanbase.
     
    Westerveld believes that Slot carries a similar trait.
     
    “His personality is perfect for Liverpool. He is a good fit because he is not only the manager of a team, he can manage a club and the fans.
     
    “He is an intelligent guy, he is a good analyst and when you see his press conferences, he speaks good English and is very respectful.
     
    “You will not see Arne being like Erik ten Hag was in his recent press conference. He is a respectful guy like Pep Guardiola and he is an ambassador for the club.
     
    “You need to be a special coach to coach a special club and I think Arne is that.”
     
     
     
  • I don’t want to do this round up to be honest. Not after the derby. Would have been ok if there were no midweek games and I was just writing about the weekend, but midweek has proper put a massive downer on it all and made me want to just forget all about footy, as much as its humanly possible for someone who writes about it for a living anyway.
     
    You probably don't want to read about it either, which is fair enough. Watching these other games and writing about them isn’t going to be much fun so I wouldn’t be expecting the usual fun and nonsense this week, although I’ll try.
     
    I’ll start at Goodison where the Blues overcame Forest with considerable help from Anthony Taylor to all but secure their safety. They followed it up with a win over some other bum team in midweek to put the seal on their survival, but the less said about that the better.
     
    The game with Forest was frankly ridiculous. I understand Forest’s anger but can’t get on board with the response, or who they directed their anger at. All three of those were penalties, and two of them were absolute stonewallers. But Stuart Atwell isn’t the villain of this story. No, it’s the baldies who are to blame here. Taylor failed to give all three, which is very weird as to keep turning down penalty appeals is unusual. Generally if you’ve not given one close one then you’ll give the next close one. And if you’ve turned down two then you’ll definitely give the third.
     
    Atwell supporting Luton has nothing to do with him not intervening though. That’s on Chief Inspector Baldy and what he’s instructed his goon squad to do. Overturns on penalty decisions are very rare, VAR rarely interferes (unless it’s Oliver helping out City) and Atwell’s allegiance - which I agree should have ruled him out of the game - was irrelevant. You could have had Stuart Pearce and Des Walker in the VAR room but if they were acting how Webb wants them to then they’d stay out of it.
     
    Ashley Old got away with murder, and being the twat that he’s always been he couldn’t help but gloat about it afterwards. Smirking in his MOTD interview and saying they weren’t penalties because the ref didn’t give them, and then posting “Cry me a river” on Instagram the next day. Like I say, always been a twat him.
     
    Forest’s owner is a fucking moron though. The tweet was embarrassing. Even though there was a legitimate cause for complaint in there, the way they did immediately turned a lot of people away from their cause. The statement they put out the next day is what they should have done to begin with, but the owner is a hothead and you know that came from him. The rumour doing the rounds is he wanted to do it at half time and was talked out of it by the social media team.
     
    Clattenberg is a tit as well, but his poacher turned gamekeeper thing (or maybe the reverse actually) is interesting in the sense that he knows these refs, he knows how they think and he knows what goes on. He seems convinced Forest are being fucked over and I do wonder if he’s got some sort of inside track on that. Or maybe he’s just Pat Garrett with a whistle.
     
    If Forest are so concerned about corruption though they might want to start by checking their keeper’s bank account for payments from Evert… actually no, scratch that. Everton don’t have enough cash to pay their own staff let alone someone else’s. The keeper’s attempts to stop those two long range pea roller goals though was pathetic. Went down line a roll of lino.
  • Playing any game at an online is fun, but poker is always one of the most popular. Fast withdrawal operators are becoming favourite way to play poker online. 
     
    But what is a fast withdrawal operator and how does playing poker at one compare to a normal online casino? We’re going to take a look into the advantages and disadvantages of playing poker games at a fast withdrawal site so you can look out for them for your next time. 
     
    What is a fast withdrawal casino?
    A fast withdrawal casino or operator is one that lets you take your winnings out immediately after they have been won. A lot of casino operators will have rules and regulations as to when you can take out your winnings, and how much of it you can withdraw.
     
    But there are a lot of casinos now that will let you do a much faster payout. As the landscape for online casinos grows more and more competitive, operators are trying to find different ways in which they can appeal to their users.
     
    One of those ways is to offer a faster payout system, no matter what game you’re playing. It’s becoming more popular and there are advantages to both casino and player alike.
     

    Advantages to playing poker at a fast withdrawal operator
    Get your money quicker  
    The main benefit of a fast withdrawal operator is that you can get to your winnings straight away. Humans are impatient at the best of times - but especially when there’s money involved! 
     
    Getting your winnings as soon as you’ve won them is a great benefit for those impatient people who want to tuck their money away safely. 
     
    Less tempted to play on if you have a spend limit  
    Playing poker at an online casino is always a good time, but it gets a lot less fun if you end up getting yourself into some financial hot water. A lot of people have spending limits on their online poker accounts in order to not land themselves in a pickle.
     
    Therefore, being able to take out your cash straight away means that you’re not tempted to spend your winnings as you get them. This will help people stick to their budgets and even be up on their money if they’ve won more than they’ve put in.
     
    Improves trust between player and casino  
    Another benefit to being able to cash out quickly is that it builds a rapport between the players and the casino. It shows that the casino trusts their players to come back and play poker with them again rather than keeping them there because of the money that is stuck in their account.
     
    All relationships are better with trust, and that includes online casinos and their players. This trust means that players are likely to continue playing poker with them - especially with the other benefits on top.
     
    Better playing experience  
    All of these advantages make for a much better gaming experience on the whole. A trust filled relationship where both sides get what they want out of the deal is a dream one. 
     
    Playing at an online casino should be all about the fun and all of these advantages keep all the hassle to a minimum.

  • Casino video games have created a distinct niche in the gaming industry where the appeal of wagering is fused with the depth of digital experience. While both video gaming and gambling culture are strong in France, these games have shown that they have a high rise in popularity. This article examines what makes them popular among video game players in French-speaking jurisdictions.
     
    This emerging zeal is not only an indication of changing tastes in entertainment but also points to bigger trends in the digital world and toward a more accepting culture where gambling expressions are being accepted. Through an investigation of the gameplay mechanics, artistic influences, and market dynamics, the report takes a deep dive into why more and more French gamers are getting into casinos and casino-based video games.
     
    That said, French punters are also interested in exploring no deposit casinos. These online casino outfits are ideal for players, especially newbies. Players get a shot at winning big without any real financial commitment. The casino français bonus sans dépôt gives you that shot. To get started, click the sign up button and within a minute, you are done registering. The no-deposit bonus comes in a welcome bonus, free spins, free bets, etc. 
     
    Popularity Trends in France
     
    What has become more and more obvious over the past few years is the increasing interest of casino slot lovers in gambling games. This fact is the reason the popularity of such titles is seen in the growth of download numbers and engagement on the gaming platforms that host these kinds of games. Among the most influential factors is how these games have been programmed to incorporate the use of well-advanced graphics and environments that are as real as the casinos you might find in real life. Yet, they are safe because there is no risk of betting with real money.
     
    Cultural Influence and Acceptance
     
    The French culture, well-known for fashion, wine, and gambling, has, in time, been instrumental in the reception and acceptability of these casino games. The legal environment in France, characterized by the adherence to regulated gambling, also serves as the base of operations within which the player can have safe exploration for gambling themes. Furthermore, they serve as link connectors between real-life poker games and modern digital games, something which makes the games itself to be accepted by almost everyone.
     
    Technological Advancements in Gaming
     

     
    Technological evolution has extremely shaped the growth of video games in the casino context. The VR (Virtual Reality) and AI (Artificial Intelligence) behind those games have changed the experience from being just a simple simulation to an immersive and complex environment that creates the feel of a real casino. The smart AI algorithms are not only keeping the players intrigued by increasing the difficulty level, but they are also ensuring randomness and fairness in the gameplay, which makes it mirror the unpredictability of casino games.
     
    Social Role of Gaming
     
    Most casinos that have video games use social features when designing the games, thus allowing players to play and compete online in groups. This social element, together with the fact that it automatically replicates the traditional casino atmosphere, is part of the attractiveness of online casinos. Besides that, these features make games more fun to play as well as allow gamers to interact with each other and share the same interests.
     
    The economic effects of the Gaming industry on the industry.
     
    Besides the rise of the popularity of casinos in-game video games, the economic influence of the gaming industry on France has also been remarkable. Publishers and gaming developers are more and more pouring into this genre, taking into account the ability of such games to generate income by means of in-game purchases and advertising. These games frequently feature purchasing virtual chips and other items, thus generating a continuous income that is more stable than creating one single game version. As they become viable, it motivates more developers to join the market which leads to higher variety and creativity within the industry.
     
    Regulatory Challenges and Opportunities
     
    In an increasingly dynamic gaming environment, casino-based video games continue to be robust and controversial in terms of resolving issues involving regulation. The French government there are strict regulations on gambling so that people would not become addicted to it, and children less than 18 can not play it. Video games that imitate gambling activities need to be very keen to abide by the legality of the respective countries so that they have fewer penalties and may remain accessible in the market without being the subject of gambling prohibitions. This complicated law, though, also unlocks opportunities for improvement, as creators can develop titles that meet the French regulation framework while still being entertaining and totally regressive.
     
    Marketing Strategies
     
    Casino game publicity featured in the market is the major reason for the popularity of casino-based video games, which are there in French. Proper marketing strategies with a focus on the distinguishing peculiarities of these games, like realism, social interaction, and virtual (money is not involved in actuality), can attract many customers. Additionally, developers often cooperate with gaming influencers who are popular, as well as use social media sites that reach a wide audience, especially aimed at gamers who don’t usually play casino games but are attracted by games' social aspects.
     
    Integration with Mobile Gaming
     
    Of course, the quick technological integration of casino video games with mobile handsets is one more vital segment of growth. Smartphone capability evolves with time, and these now function as a perfect forum for casino-like games, allowing players to play casino-like games at their convenience with a smartphone. Mobile Gaming's conveniences and accessibility are the key factors that have lately made gambling-themed apps, to a large extent, a must-have in the French gaming community. App developers turn their attention to improving those games for mobile devices; the goals are clear: the games must run smoothly and in high-resolution graphics, what required by players accustomed to smartphone usage.
     
    Player Retention Strategies
     
    It is one of the goals of a developer of casino-based video games to keep their player base and player numbers, and they do so by implementing various retention strategies that ensure long-term engagement. These strategies include weekly updates, new game modes, yearly events, and new challenges that keep the player interested and engaged each time. The loyalty programs and rewards offered to the loyal players are a must-have for the retention of the gamers since they give the gamers a sense of development and winning. These elements of engaging the community as well as keeping it active and involved are required; they will, in turn, ensure continuous interest and participation.
     
    Future Prospects
     
    As for the future, the potential for video games for casinos in France is very promising. While tech evolves, so will the set of these games. It may include an augmented reality (AR) / mixed reality (MR), which could confuse real-world moments with virtual gaming experiences. Additionally, with the attitudes towards gambling in our society getting more and more intricate and a remarkable number of younger people demanding something interesting and interactive games from that sector, these games would definitely play a decisive role in that process.
     
    Conclusion
     
    A number of factors, such as cultural, social, or technological ones, condition the appeal of casino-themed video games for French players. As these games incorporate more and more the blend of Gaming and betting, it is only a matter of time before they will become the most popular type of entertainment for the French gaming community. This is where you discover the mix of entertainment forms, and this creates the best space for more investigation and creation in the gaming industry.
  • That’s that then. Season over, Klopp’s going out with a whimper and a campaign that promised so much is ending in massive disappointment and anger. Ok, we’ve got a trophy under our belts but is that League Cup really offering any consolation right now? Absolutely nothing is consoling me, I’m just fucking devastated about all this. It’s not the missing out (I think most of were expecting to come up just short), it’s the way we’re missing out. 
     
    I need to strike the right balance here between how I’m feeling and what I know to be completely knee jerk over the top statements. How I feel right now is not what I’ll be feeling when I’ve calmed down. At least I don’t think it will. Maybe I’ll still be feeling this way, who knows. I do know that I said a few weeks back that if these players didn’t go and win at Old Trafford I’d struggle to look at them in the same way. I also said if they allow Klopp to go out with a whimper I’d struggle to forgive them and it would take some getting over. So this isn’t a reaction to losing a derby, it’s something that’s been in my head for several weeks.
     
    And that’s exactly how I’m feeling right now, so maybe it won’t pass, I don’t know. All I know is that I don’t want to even look at this team right now. The sense of disappointment in them is something I’m not sure I’ve experienced this strongly before. They were on the brink of doing something really special and they’ve thrown it away. Ok, on the brink is overstating it, but they had put themselves in a position where it was attainable, and instead of rising to the challenge they’ve completely buckled under the pressure and what we’re seeing now is a collective mess. 
     
    They ALL have blood on their hands and it’s pointless looking for scapegoats because they’re all to blame to varying degrees. Except the kids. They’ve done us proud. Everyone else? They’ve shit the bed. Everyone will have their own scapegoats and say “if he’d have done blah blah blah then this wouldn’t have happened” but honestly, when it comes to the outfield players it’s literally all of them. They’ve all contributed to this recent shitshow to varying degrees and we saw that in this game.
     
    Diaz was our best player but he missed a great chance in the first half which if he’d scored would have changed things completely. He’s been the one forward who has consistently been at it over recent weeks and he’s put most of his team-mates to shame. Yet for all of his endeavour he hasn’t delivered the quality we’ve needed either. Look at the City game for example. He was great, but the one v one he missed was decisive. Still, in terms of the forwards he’s the one I’m the least disappointed with by some distance. I’m just highlighting him to make the point that even he, the best player we’ve had over this period, isn’t blameless. He just has less blame than the rest, but collectively this has been a huge meltdown.
     
    This is the lowest point of the Klopp era by far. We’ve lost finals, missed out on titles on the last day, had some stinking times last season and during COVID but we knew we’d come through all of that and be stronger for it. And we were. Now? Fuck knows. Jurgen is leaving, which in itself is bad enough, but the ‘great squad’ he was leaving behind for his successor suddenly looks nothing of the sort. Now there are question marks about virtually everybody.
  • The Reds' ailing title challenge suffered a fatal blow in the worst place possible as Everton registered a deserved 2-0 in the Merseyside Derby at Goodison.

    Chris Smith is joined by Ian Brown and Dave Usher to discuss a dismal night when defensive lapses and misfiring forwards were coupled with an absence of the energy and synonymous with Jurgen Klopp's great sides. Sadly, it really did feel like the end.

    As this era comes to a sad close, the lads try to look to a future under Klopp's rumoured replacement Arne Slot, and address some looming decisions over the futures of the squad's biggest names.

    Poor Bankroll Management
    Bankroll management is the disciplined practice of effectively managing one's gambling funds to sustain play over time. It involves setting and adhering to financial limits, understanding risk tolerance, and allocating funds wisely across different games. Common errors include not setting limits, leading to overspending, and chasing losses by increasing bets to recoup previous losses hastily.
    Effective strategies for bankroll management include setting strict loss limits, dividing the bankroll into sessions, and employing the "stop-loss" technique, where players walk away after reaching predetermined loss thresholds. This approach ensures players can enjoy prolonged gaming sessions without risking financial ruin.

    Enables informed decision-making on bets and strategies.
    Enhances overall gaming experience by fostering confidence and competence.
     
    Games commonly misunderstood by beginners:
    Blackjack: Misinterpretation of rules like splitting and doubling down.
    Craps: Confusion regarding various bet types and their odds.
    Roulette: Lack of understanding of different betting options and payouts.
    Resources for learning game strategies:
    Online tutorials and guides.
    Casino-sponsored workshops or seminars.
    Books authored by gambling experts.

     
    Overlooking Bonus Terms and Conditions
    Casino bonuses are incentives offered by gambling establishments to attract and retain players:
     
    Types include welcome bonuses, deposit bonuses, and loyalty rewards.
     
    Designed to entice players to deposit money and play on the site.
     
    Terms and conditions typically outline wagering requirements, game restrictions, and expiration dates.
     
    Wagering requirements denote the amount a player must bet before withdrawing bonus funds.
     
    Game restrictions may limit bonus use to specific games or exclude certain high-risk bets.
     
    Expiration dates dictate the timeframe within which bonuses must be used or wagering requirements fulfilled.
     
    Playing Under the Influence 
     
    Gambling while intoxicated poses several risks due to impaired judgement and decision-making.
     
    Alcohol can lower inhibitions, leading to reckless betting and higher stakes.
     
    Impaired cognitive abilities may result in overlooking game rules, making poor strategic choices, or misinterpreting odds.
     
    Increased susceptibility to emotional impulses, such as chasing losses or ignoring limits.
     
    Inebriation may also diminish awareness of financial expenditure, leading to overspending.
     
    Overall, gambling while intoxicated heightens the likelihood of making impulsive and detrimental decisions, which can result in significant financial losses and regrettable consequences.

     
    Failure to Set Time Limits
     
    Failing to set time limits in a casino can lead to excessive gambling sessions.
     
    Without boundaries, players may lose track of time, spending hours at the tables or slot machines.
     
    Prolonged sessions increase fatigue, impairing decision-making abilities and concentration.
     
    Continuously playing without breaks can lead to mental exhaustion and diminished enjoyment of the gaming experience.
     
    It also affects personal responsibilities outside the casino, potentially causing conflicts and neglecting other obligations.
     
    Setting time limits helps regulate gambling habits, ensuring players take breaks, maintain a healthy balance, and prevent gambling from dominating their lives.
     
    By establishing boundaries, players can enjoy their time at the casino responsibly while mitigating the risks of addiction and excessive financial losses.
     
    Chasing Losses 
     
    The "sunk cost fallacy" in gambling refers to the mistaken belief that past losses influence future outcomes.
     
    It occurs when players continue gambling solely to recoup losses already incurred, disregarding rational decision-making.
     
    Chasing losses can deplete the bankroll further, leading to deeper financial setbacks.
     
    Emotionally, it can cause frustration, anxiety, and desperation as players become fixated on recovering losses.
     
    This mindset can lead to impulsive and irrational behaviour, such as increasing bet sizes or playing longer than intended.
     
    Ultimately, chasing losses exacerbates financial strain and undermines mental well-being.
     
    Recognising and avoiding the sunk cost fallacy is crucial for responsible gambling, promoting sound decision-making, and protecting both bankroll and mental health.
     
    Playing Without a Strategy
     
    Having a game plan in gambling is crucial for strategic and disciplined play.
     
    It provides clear objectives and guidelines for each gaming session.
     
    A well-thought-out plan includes setting specific goals, such as profit targets or time limits.
     
    Helps in selecting games with favorable odds and appropriate betting strategies.
     
    Prevents impulsive decision-making and emotional reactions to wins or losses.
     
    Provides a framework for managing bankroll effectively, including setting loss limits and sticking to them.
     
    Encourages self-discipline and responsible gambling behavior.
     
    Increases the likelihood of consistent and sustainable success in the long run.
     
    Overall, having a game plan enhances focus, control, and enjoyment of the gambling experience while minimizing risks.

  • It might be the fixture that divides a city but Jurgen Klopp admits that he will not miss everything that surrounds the Merseyside Derby.
     
    With the time rapidly ticking down on the tenure of Klopp at Liverpool, questions often arise regarding what certain fixtures have meant to him during his time at the club.
     
    With the games coming thick and fast and with Liverpool still in the hunt for a Premier League title, Klopp has often said there will come a time for in depth reflection, but at this stage he mind his focused on more important things.
     
    Klopp comes into his 19th and final fixture against Everton having only lost game which came at Anfield behind closed doors during the Pandemic in 2021.
     
    While Liverpool remain unbeaten at Goodison Park under Klopp, there have only been two wins to go along with five draws.
     
    Speaking to the media ahead of the pivotal clash, the manager gave a insight into how energy sapping the occasion is (per the Guardian).
     
    “Around the derby is just pressure.
     
    “The pressure is higher so why should the joy be higher? You win it, great; but why should I miss the pressure around it? This time, when you’re really playing for something, that’s the pressure. But when you are both not in a great moment, it’s the one game you definitely have to win. That kind of pressure – why would I miss that? It’s not enjoyable.”
     
    Klopp broadened his discussion to include the overall role of a manager, a true indication that his upcoming sabbatical from the game is vitally important for his own mental wellbeing.
     
    “ Everyone else can only watch it and think: ‘Oh my God, it looks exciting.’ But somebody has to make the decisions, somebody has to do this, somebody has to do that. So many people always visit me around the games and say: ‘We will not see that any more or that any more,’ and I just want to tell them – I work all the time while you just watch the games.
     
    "I’m constantly in it. Even when the game is over I can’t switch off. It’s not great to be in this situation all the time. Maybe other people enjoy that more than me. But that’s something I definitely will not miss.”
     
    “I had my last European game last week [against Atalanta]. Yes we didn’t go through and you can make a big story of it being my last game but I just tried to figure out how I felt, and it was nothing. It’s not like I felt I would never have a European game again. If that would be the case, then I wouldn’t stop it.”
     
    Klopp is the first to admit that it takes many contrasting styles to win a Football game and not every manager is blessed with a team full of technical quality, but that does not mean he enjoys the physical nature of some specific fixtures.
     

     
     "(The Derby) used to be [the most physical game],” he said. “At the beginning I remember I showed the players videos of [Jamie] Carragher in the derby and Stevie [Gerrard] where he got red cards – I love one, and respect the other a lot. That’s what people expect, that if you get a red card against Everton it’s fine. It’s not, it’s absolutely not, because we want to win the game and it’s the only reason why we go there.
     
    “At the beginning there were a few situations where I thought it was over the top. Since then it has become a bit settled and I hope it stays like this because it should. At the beginning I thought: ‘Wow, that’s what they are allowed to do?’ and I didn’t get that.
     
    "But I had to learn all these things over the years. Everything that makes it a really special football game, with all the ups and downs in a game and the good and bad, I’m fully in for it. When it goes over the top, I’m absolutely not.”
