Xabi Alonso has been able to earn a qualified manager's badge for himself as a consequence for the positive impact he's made for the team. His skillset and in total managerial ability has put the team at the point they are currently. There's resonance in the team and their performances complement every move each player makes. Xabi Alonso this season has been able to build a threatening squad too.

 In the domestic league, there are top teams and even though these teams stand to challenge Leverkusen, I still uphold the fact that there can be evenness in the performance from both sides. Leverkusen are not seeming to relent in the struggle and watching them play makes it more fun. Such a great team Alonso has been able to mould up this season. They still have games ahead and they still have the competing potential and winning spirit too. Just as Munich, they'd keep making it tough for other teams they may encounter.

Al Hilal really had a very tough battle with Ronaldo and his Al Nassr team, as this is not just a battle for the top spot, it’s also a battle for the top scorers, Ronaldo and Mitrovic, But for this match I think Al Hilal had better chances because they’re composed defensively and have a wide variety of scoring options compared to Al Nassr which most times depend on Ronaldo to get the goals.

 This match being won by Al Hilal will be a big boost to them on their way to clinch the title but Al Nassr could cause an upset and probably steal all 3 points, For this match I’m putting my bet on Al Hilal to maintain their winning streak and probably lose sometime later this season because they’re not the Invincible Arsenal.

Yes, Luis managed a very good Barcelona side that have been built over time and they won him the treble. Well, I think him being at PSG, he’ll do no less than he did while at Barcelona but is the club ready to invest or are they leaving it all at the mercy of the coach to get the titles in. No business flourishes without proper investment

The team seems to be built all around Kylian and when Kylian is underperforming in a match, the team generally tends to underperform. Now you can imagine what holds when Kylian leaves by Summer, with this kind of performance, I think they’ll even struggle in their league which they’re known to win yearly, last season they almost lost it to Lens, there's a possibility that they could either lose it to Nice or Monaco this season.

That's the most interesting things about football, it's full of suprises and it makes it very unique, the Europa League is a very big tournament played by tough clubs from different league, therefore even though you're among the best in your league you don't have to underestimate any team but rather work hard to do better, as a big team like As Roma with a big coach and several talented players, I think they should be able to improvise when they lack a certain quality of player in a certain area, they've been doing well before this game without players that could deliver good passes to Lukaku therefore I don't understand why they couldn't win this.

 Well ending in 2nd place is not a bad idea so far they'll move to the next round which is the most important thing to keep them in the tournament, well they might have had a disappointing draw game but I believe they'll do better in their next match and all eyes would be on Lukaku to deliver this team this time around.

  I think the match between  Tottenham and Manchester City is going to be a very tough one with reason that both teams really needs the winning, Tottenham has lost 3 consecutive matches and it's dragged them from top downwards the standings, City on the other hands were suppose to be the league leaders currently but couldn't get the 3points against Liverpool in their last match to be at the top, therefore they'll do everything possible to win this game and get a chance to pass Arsenal on the standings.

 In as much as the Premier league is not very easy to predict, their are some clubs that's been very dominate especially Manchester City, they've won the league consistenly in recent times and play very brilliantly when they face bigger teams, winning Tottenham today might not be an easy task but I feel they'll be very possessive in the match which would give them an upper hand in winning the game.

Bayern Munich drew to Copenhagen and this slightly made their qualification uncertain. Although they've got enough points needed to qualify which in their next and final match with United, will be sealed. For Galatasaray, they also had a draw with United in the last UCL encounter and now these four teams are left to struggle through in the final group game. That'll be the decider for each of their performances.

 Another set of teams with an undecided situation would be Newcastle who almost secured a win against PSG but got disappointed after a late minute equalizer. As well as Dortmund who's been up and doing in their performance and have made winning difficult for their counterparts. It's likely to be a smooth qualification for them and maybe a struggle for PSG, Milan and Newcastle. Next week would be the determinant.

United's team are generally in  a mess, their players aren't cooperative and coordinating adding to the fact that they're trying to make essential a signing that had this shaky performance. Hojlund has not really imparted United as he ought to as a signed striker. He's failed in doing his job the right way maybe as a result of his poor ability to perform and as well as disagreements and discordination in the team.

 There's a reason why Haaland is excelling, first he's good at his duty post and second there's resonance in the team. They know there's a striker that needs to do some work. They feed him the ball and he nets it in whichever way he likes, no one plays stingy and solo, everybody wants to be on the score sheet but not everybody should or can be there.

 There are extents to being a very good team and United lacks it all, they should put a lot of work in themselves and help each other grow. The team needs to get back to being the old United, currently they're looked down on and it doesn't really speak well for them either.

The battle is still on for whoever would turn out to be the trophy holder, both teams are in good shape and they're not set to trade errors or have a fling with chances. Surprisingly, both are goal scoring teams so we should be set to count as much goals as possible. The both teams have got European contest to fight for and it also means that their players strength level will be the same and there'll be no excuse arising when one breaks away.
 
 They have many weeks ahead of them and it's likely that there'd be no change in the outcome and progress of the games. No one would want a loss as it'll affect them. Leverkusen been 4points ahead are now advantageous but will they be able to maintain the top or will they slack back for Munich. It's beautiful to see how powers are going to change hands in the Bundesliga. Tuchel has a team to put in shape, Alonso has a team to make stronger for the task ahead, the results are awaited. Both teams deserve an appraisal.

The season hasn't been quite adventurous for Juventus as they've been indicted to not taking part in the Europa League. They've been focusing their strength on the domestic Serie A league and they've been doing excellently well in it. They've even got a greater chance of being far ahead in the standings than the likes of Inter Milan because for others, after the league games, they'd still have to play the continental tournament and this will definitely affect players' physical capabilities too. Although inasmuch as a weighty gap is expected of them, Inter Milan has made it difficult because they've also been in their best form.

 The team are using this season to put in more work to ensure a spot in next season's European cup tournament and they definitely would earn it. They've got good set of players, right squad combination and their coach is doing his best part and giving them the right tactical approach. I don't know if they've got choice of changes to make during the mid season transfer window but at this state now, Juventus are good to go to some extent only if extra energy wants to be pumped into the squad to increase their efficiency too.

The both teams currently on each other's tail for the Bundesliga trophy never ceases to amaze me. How well and good Alonso has been able to build a team that's been dejected for quite a well and then this season has this burning quest to lead the league. In comparison, it's very much safe to say that Tuchel is way experienced than Alonso but that doesn't matter as both the more experienced and less experienced learns a few things from each other.
 
 The two teams are just there, the final decisions will get heated up later on in the season, but for now, maybe they have to reminisce on all their experiences and struggles through to be where they are now. Especially Leverkusen, kudos for still keeping that lamp burning. Can Alonso's strategy be able to supercede Tuchel's intellect? As it stands, both men are in their own way of managing their teams uniquely.

 Implementing and inventing new techniques to withhold and counter back the pressure from the opposing side. It's definitely amazing to watch these two teams play and I'll really love to be fed in on every development from their ends.

The outcome of the weekend's game of Real Madrid against Granada is most definitely a determinant of the top spot in the league. The game has a lot of potentials to end as a victory for the Spanish heads. Santiago Bernabeu Wil be the host ground and surely a number of exploits occurs on this ground. Even though Madrid suffered player injury defect some weeks back, it isn't a necessity for their deranged delivery of class, we set the compasses right for them.

 Granada can still show their competitive strength, manage to tie some more other games but I still don't fancy the idea of Madrid likely to be reduced to his near half. The boys are eager to outplay any type of contest and their success rate is more than half. Eyes and hands are on deck for Real Madrid, what does the weekend hold for them.

Tottenham should go into this match with city confident and fight for at least a point even if yea, we know that Manchester City are sure favorites of this encounter; following the declining performance of Tottenham since their injury crisis. Tottenham should take a cue from fellow London rivals, Chelsea and Arsenal and they should know how to go about this fixture.

Yes losing Maddison is quite a big deal but that shouldn’t be a hindrance; with Newcastle’s line of injuries they still dealt hard with Newcastle, Tottenham could pull a surprise against City and that’s one interesting thing about the Premier League and that’s one thing the fans would love to see, although it's not goimg to be easy for them, cause city is a very tough team to play against unlike the rest big team they've come across.

Sevilla when it comes to the Champions League, they find it so hard in this competition in Europe but in the Europa League they’re a team that holds quite a number of title in this competition, Now they’ve got a last match which is a must win if they’ve to qualify to the Europa. Yes, I’m confident they can steal all 3 points from Lens who were lashed 6-0 by Arsenal who didn’t really find their foot against Sevilla. Though Lens needs at least a draw for this match to go through and with the presence of their home fans it’ll be quite a match for Sevilla.

 Over to the Group A we’ve got a more precarious situation and Manchester United happen to be the victim of this happening. And they’ve got to defeat Group leaders, Bayern Munich and hope on a draw reault from the other group’s fixture. Bayern Munich who would be a tough side to bring down. What’s worse is that in this match we’ve got Bayern’s point man having his return to England, a soil where he’s used to scoring, well I think Sevilla has a better chance of going to the Europa than Manchester United.

PSG owners, investors and fans of this club will be having a bad time this season in European competition especially as they see their team struggle against smaller teams like Newcastle, whom they’re supposed to win conveniently.This shows that the French League doesn’t have the quality to match some big Leagues and teams across Europe and it’s wuite worrisome that their champions, PSG are chickens outside.The blame should be on the lackadaisical attitude of the players when on he pitch of play, they play without the fighting spirit and that’s worrisome

 Yes, they need a real experienced coach but with Enrique that’s quite some experience personnel they’ve got there. Well Yes, Zidane is another great option especially as it comes to grooming the young players, Mbappe is done with psg in his heart, they should just let him leave, with that funds, get an experienced coach and som quality youngsters who can perform under Zidane

Neymar’s injury hasn’t affected Al Hilal performance in any way amd that’s one thing that makes Al Hilal side favorite for the league title. Neymar is one kind of player mist football clubs wants on their team side because he surely attracts opposition players to himself freeing up the centre man to bang in goals, this attribute made Al Hilal pay quite a nice fee for him and unluckily for him and the team, they haven’t enjoyed the dividends of their investment.

 This weekend the top 2 teams will go head to head in a derby match and both teams can be matched together in terms of strength both attacking and defensive wise. Al Nassr will be coming to this match to create an upset for Al Hilal and i hope Ronaldo will be able to lead his team to this course victory.

 Galatasaray last performance was shaky in the proper definition of their ability, they may be better, they may not be better but for the face off against United they did really great, we hoped to see them perform, and they actually did by gettimg a comeback and equalized 3-3. United themselves are not necessarily in a right form and for me their victory was uncertain as well.

 Now it seems like they're both at the same range. Although Galatasaray were the host and definitely, they'd have the advantage at their finger tip but they didn't capitalize on it and make a difference and also secure a win, United themselves tried but were unable to combat the host to the last and win, Well from the outcome of the match but hopefully one of the sides would qualify for the next round because it'll have effect on their progress. Both teams want to partake in the subsequent games in the tournament, this is the second to last group game and that was the time they got to prove their worth.

Salah has been a quality player for Liverpool, he's still got a year additional before the expiration of his contract with the team and his impacts in the past have not stopped speaking for him, the time he has left in the team would still be enough for him to do what he knows how to do best. Salah's decision at the conclusion of his time with Liverpool would definitely be essential in his career growth.

 He's done his best for the club and it's just good enough that he stretches his net to see how much fish could be caught from other teams. There are variety of options he can pick from but career wise, the best would him joining the SPL, I'm certain that the SPL themselves wont hesitate to press on for him. He's the type of player they need for the league's growth.

 So the whole SPL decision is just both parties being assets to each other. Salah would join them as a result of the great football impact he'd make and he'll be earning substantial enough to keep him through till his final football days, first it was Mane and soon Salah, Liverpool would have to find a very big alternative. But do you think Salah's exit would make a negative difference on the team? It's seeming like it though but it'll be fun to watch a Liverpool void of Salah on the pitch too.

Manchester United's UCL is in a probable jeopardize state currently, If they had being at their best, then qualifying for the next round would have been very much easy for them. First Copenhagen and then Galatasaray days back, now they don't even stand a chance with Munich who'd be their final group stage opponent. For Munich, they've successfully earned a qualification spot and  Galatasaray and Copenhagen would still have to fight themselves in the last game to ensure that one of them qualifies.

 United would have had a smooth ride in this group but their current predicament has resolved them into struggling to overcome every game. Galatasaray and Copenhagen are not really much of a tough team and their player quality are not so bulky and top notch so it's safe to say they fall in the same range of abilities. We hope to see these teams get good results in their final faceoffs.

Yesterday's UCL game of Real Madrid and Napoli turned out as a smooth win for the Spanish side, they played with so much confidence adding that it was in their home ground. Napoli their visitors didn't make it so easy for them but Madrid still proved their class of football. The young stars in the team are very much the delightful part to behold because they're so good with the ball and general team spirit. The impact they make in their matches, there's equal quota of contribution to the game from every player. The outstanding player has always been Bellingham who's never missed a chance at goal all his times being on the pitch for the team. It's really surprising how a midfielder is able to do so well in his ball play and delivering the qualities of a striker rightly.

 The team in general is blessed and it's no shame of a loss for Napoli either because they did the best that was expected of them but one thing is certain, there's definitely levels to football.
The young players of Madrid are the joy givers in the club and the league in general and the way and manner at which they'd grow to doing exploits will so much leave us all in awe. Weekend they'd have a league battle to contend with and I'm very sure that it'll be another win for them. It's amazing how Madrid season after season has still being able to maintain their active form and they don't seem to be in ruin anytime near either.
