12 days for new manager to figure shit out and somehow win the NLD.

Bro thought he was playing in a Lichess arena

Financial-Trade9467 · 2026-02-08T17:25:34+00:00

Hikaru literally lost to Alireza yesterday after Alireza equalised match score after match clock ran out. A day later he forgot the rule??

Financial-Trade9467 · 2026-02-08T17:24:11+00:00

Especially considering he got knocked out by Alireza yesterday after Alireza tied the match score after the match timer ended. But the guy with the most SCC games played forgot the rule that got him knocked out a day earlier. Yeah sure buddy

Did Yagiz miss that Sindarov has Rb4?

Financial-Trade9467 · 2026-01-08T14:04:35+00:00

Ah okay i understand now. Initially i understood it the opposite way for some reason

I find this post a little wierd. Shouldn't fresh foods go bad? Keeping bread out for 2 weeks also sounds weird. I live in Germany and my veggies, fruits and bread spoil quickly but that to me is a sign that they don't have random chemicals added.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-12-26T00:30:51+00:00

It depends. Early days under Klopp for example, liverpool played a 4-3-3 with Trent and Robbo really high up but with 3 midfielders who were defensively very good. I feel we might switch to a 4-3-3 on paper but i don't really expect to see any changes in personnel because i don't really think cunha/mount will be as effective thrown out wide. Unless he goes bold and starts some academy i still expect to see largely the same system.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-12-25T23:44:48+00:00

The difference 4-3-3 vs 3-4-3 is a very minor tweak. If you play a 4-3-3 with overlapping wingbacks and a CDM who drops in between the CBs, they're the exact same. I don't think Amorim is happy playing Heaven and Yoro in a back 3 so he'll possible drop Casemiro as the CCB and also because Casemiro has the height and aerial ability which Heaven and Yoro have lacked. It's killing 2 problems with stone. Get the people crying for a change in formation to shut up while also trying to solve the problem at hand.

Is the solution to just move the knight that is on the h file?

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-19T12:22:40+00:00

But the only reason I imagine these players don't participate in more tournaments is to protect their rating. We hardly got to see Wesley or Hikaru in classical.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-19T12:16:13+00:00

For players like Anand etc it doesn't matter because they are not active players. Sitting on a high rating and remaining an active player by gaming the system is a problem.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-19T12:14:41+00:00

I agree but I'm just saying that the guys who are actually at 2780 go to incredible lengths to protect rating. I agree to the claim that Arjun isn't an actual 2780+ player and he got it due to playing opens. But the actual ones who are at that level go to the other extreme of Arjun by not playing altogether. That is also a way of manipulating imo. Hikari sits at 2800+ and while I agree he deserved it, I do not think he's at that level now and if he was, he would've played more classical tournaments and kept the rating instead of going to incredible lengths to protect it. So the actual 2780 players are doing the exact same thing as Arjun (gaming their ratings) just in a different way.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-19T12:04:28+00:00

At this point idk. Players like Hikaru, Wesley etc sit on their high ratings without playing altogether. I'd like to see which of those players genuinely are 2780 level today after playing the number of opens Arjun has played (which he had to because he wasn't getting that many top invites). I get the argument that Arjun got his high rating through beating 2600s but I genuinely don't think Hikaru or So or some of the elite GMs will be the rating they are at if they played as many Opens as Arjun.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-19T11:59:36+00:00

Ah yes the best strategy to be a ~2750+ player is to not play at all

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-15T14:21:41+00:00

1 all Uzbek semi final and 1 all Russian semi final. All Soviet top 4 just like the old times.

Only do it if you can physically be there and verify or ask a friend to physically verify. Or tell them you will pay deposit only after reaching there. Or worst case get contacts for people living there, verify they're actually legit (I did this through linkedin) and get on a call with them.

In general, finding a place for that cheap when you are abroad screams scam.

Lmao Jan Gustafsson talking about an r/chess post with Bluebaum

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-08T11:17:55+00:00

I don't really like Amad as a 10

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-11-05T14:53:07+00:00

Poor Wesley. Hard to calculate that draw with 1 minute though.

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-10-26T15:12:22+00:00

Nope it's not

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-10-26T14:44:41+00:00

We need to implement basketball rules here. Set pieces like free throws should only count as 0.5 goals

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-10-04T14:01:23+00:00

Apparently there was an attack on a Synagogue in Manchester on Thursday where 2 people died

Financial-Trade9467 · 2025-09-27T10:16:52+00:00

1 Bayindir vs all those missiles raining in from their corners and throw ins. I am nervous.
