To the points you said above, I agree. In fact, Ten Hag had plans for Ronaldo at that time. not much different from one of the United players who was dropped, namely, Sancho. In this case, there are several similarities between Ronaldo and Sancho. In fact, these two players have been given several opportunities but in fact they are not playing as they should.
Well, if you, or we as United coaches, what steps would we take? Moreover, if a player is clearly still being paid his salary by the club, it is inappropriate to say something that brings down the club and his own team. After all, he still received his salary and meals from the club. let's be realistic, that they get paid for it.

At this point, I am not looking for justification for Ten Hag, even I am not a fan of Manchester United. It's just that we can't close one eye to the situation that is happening in the United camp, Ten Hag was able to bring United to a 3rd place finish without Ronaldo. I do not intend to compare, or belittle. However, let's see what Ten Hag is building for The Red Devil. he is a coach from the Netherlands, who is famous for his rigor and discipline. Now let's ask ourselves, why is Ten Hag still trusted so far even though several rumors have reported about Ten Hag's dismissal. and until now, he is still managing United. We also need to remember that Ten Hag actually asked the club management to bring in the players he wanted. but in fact, because of FFP sanctions, he is limited by the player's spending budget. Apart from that, another wave of problems hit United. I'm curious, who should be blamed and responsible, whether Glazer or Ten Hag. You are free to choose one of them.
United currently are behind in their performance and a lot is obviously wrong with the team. For me I'd say the fault is from both Ten Hag and his players as well. The players fault in the sense that they're being too sluggish in the pitch, they play like there's no interest in the game and they just want to get done with it. The way and manner they give off chances and how smaller teams capitalize on their mistakes to earn a lead from them. They've got good players but the players aren't at their best self week after week.

 Also consider the coach being at fault because many times he'd make a new strategy which in the end doesn't work for them, and then thesame strategy will still be repeated in other games. Not just tactics, both player combinations. Why on earth would a coach still keep implementing a strategy that's failed and isn't even bulging to make corrections? He's the manager and the bigger responsibility is on his shoulder. His job is on the line and if he's been unserious about it, then he should be set to embrace a sack.They've got quality players in the team, he should be able to maximize these players.

Rudi Garcia is not too bad in leading Napoli. However, Garcia was only given a guarantee for 16 matches before he was finally fired, 12 matches in Serie A and 4 matches in the Champions League, with details of 8 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. So the new coach Mazzarri is likely to be assessed in almost the same number of matches, so far under his control Napoli have experienced one win and one defeat. Inter and Juventus are two serious contenders for the Scudetto this season, because of that as defending champions Napoli must be able to thwart steps of the two clubs to take the trophy from their hands, but this is not an easy matter.

We know that changing coaches during the season running is quite risky, everything has to return to its original settings. Mazzarri must make the best use of the time for the strategic adaptation process within the main squad, and if Napoli later lose to Inter and Juventus, he only needs to say that the adaptation has not gone as expected. However, I think Mazzarri really understands the situation of his squad, so what his responsibilities are in the future, everything is within his current range of control, his fate is determined by him alone.
Napoli was suffering a back slide for weeks with Garcia as their head and his assessment period got exhausted and the board weren't impressed in the assessment result so they had to let him off to welcome in Mazarri. The new head has got good records with himself and his previous encounters and there is confidence in his display of managerial skills. Their first game paid out fine, his second game wasn't too bad as Madrid is currently in a better form than them, so I wouldn't really judge his performances in thesame range. There's a likelihood hood that his next encounter this weekend would be good too.
Everyone awaits how he'd uphold his team when they face the top two teams in the league. Inter and Juventus are themselves threatening, not to mention to teams that aren't so much as good as them but it's not still a hopeless situation. The man has got quality and ability in himself and I'm convinced in his methods, Napoli are gradually back to the team we know them as before now and they definitely stand a chance against the two big opponents.

If Laverkusen later become the new champions in the Bundesliga, then I think that is quite interesting for everyone. Because they managed to break Bayern Munchen dominance after holding out for a long time, and indeed this can be understood as Bayern setback. In an effort to become a title contender, the Laverkusen versus Dortmund match will be very interesting to wait for, because it will greatly influence the placement of first position in the standings. Talking about the performance of these two clubs, it is clear that Laverkusen appears as a team that deserves to be superior in the match, but Dormund will not stand idly by in the hope of stealing points at their opponent's home ground.

Xabi Alonso wants to ensure that the top of the standings means everything to them, in the hunt for the Bundesliga trophy this season. Because Bayern is always ready to overtake him all the time, and now this opportunity will be quite open if Dortmund succeeds in becoming a stumbling block for Laverkusen. However, I think Laverkusen positive trend will not stop next week, and they have a big chance to secure 3 points in front of their own fans by beating Dortmund. If so, Bayern still has to be patient for a while, and Dortmund must be willing to be displaced by Leipzig.
Leverkusen currently has what it takes to be the trophy earners this season, they've superceded Dortmund, Leipzig and even currently Bayern Munich. 4points above Munich is very much tangible to some extent to keep them where they wish to be. Although the weekend game would determine the next level that both teams will be in.

 For Leverkusen, they've got a tough weekend and they have to maintain a win in order to remain top, the odds are shaky as their opponent Dortmund is a good size too. Maybe the host advantage will do the trick for Leverkusen but nonetheless, I still have confidence in them.  For Munich, they have an upper hand against Berlin and they stand a chance to come top again. There are still weeks ahead for the two sides to prove themselves so we await Alonso's best of the bests in his team.

This year Premier League title most likely to be won amongst the three which are viz;

Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal.

With Manchester City, everyone knows the qualities, standards and demands Pep Guardiola brings into the squad and what he demands from them on the pitch. They're always three to four step ahead.

Liverpool I don't trust a hundred percent, during the transfer window, they should make sure the sign up a new defender. I no longer trust Virgil he'll have to work hard. Liverpool management have to invest that way. Matip is not a good player no more, he needs to be sold for another to come.

Arsenal have got to be my favorites to win the Premier League, they failed woefully last season so they must have learnt from that failure.
Mikel Arteta had also brought in players that suits his style of play.
Man City are clear favourites, as they always are before every start to a new season. However, the early signs suggest they could face a much harder time retaining the title this time around. Pep Guardiola’s side were looking domineering, but lost back-to-back games against Wolves and Arsenal heading into the October break, while also crashing out of the EFL Cup. They roared back well, however, winning three games in a row; Brighton, Man Utd and Bournemouth. It has been a pair of draws either side of the international break, a 4-4 thriller against Chelsea before being held back to 1-1 by Liverpool. But Pep is a class coach and know when best to attack on the trophy and launch his boys all out for it and we must give hime credits for that

 The Arsenal who came really close last season but due to squad depth they fell to some losses and mistakes and that cost them the title. This season’s performance has really sent out a warning signal that Arsenal would be dominating the league too for a while and with Arteta’s wonderful shopping in the summer market, I think he can get hands on this trophy. Liverpool who struggled last season, made some changes and improvements and that’s what’s needed for growth and that shows a team that could challenge for the title because they’ve maintained consistency. The Premier League is one that has lots of fun and creativity and the fans won’t get tired watching till the last day when  champion will be crowned.

Ittihad is starting to be weakened. It was getting bad result against ettifaq and i think that ittihad has a chance to win against khaleej with narrow score. You do know that how bad the performance is from al ittihad and i saw that even though bookies were favoring it but i may be taking it with low bet.
Benzema doesn't have someone who can play as good as what he wanted. The performance from ittihad was really underperform. It was also having very big gap towards nassr and hilal. Khaleej was a weak club but consider ittihad was underperforma and im sure ittihad is going to struggle against it.
Picking al ittihad was not bad but the worst case must be the result will be draw since al ittihad is not showing improvement in the last match against ettifaq. Ittihad will not able to score a lot against khaleej.
The chance for ittihad to win is quite big but that depends on observation by people.
 
Ittihad has been out of form since start of season and that’s quite worrisome especially as they’re the league’s defending champions. Now they play Khaleej and Benzema is back on pitch of play and the comtroversial coach is out, I think Ittihad will bounce back after they got winning ways with this match to kick start their winning streak.

 Khaleej are not pretty good and that’s going to be a win in the bag for Ittihad and I think after winning this match, they’ll take some cues from this match and apply in subsequent matches so as to get  the team back in the mouth of the fans, they played very impressively to get a very good scoreline and that's going to help boost their confidence level, thank goodness Benzema who's not really in a good form managed to score a penalty goal in that match, it would help build his confidence as well.

I'm not entirely convinced that a tie will occur in this game. Roma is the favorite to win today's game since, in my opinion, they are a stronger squad than Servette. I am really confident that Roma, even though they are playing as the away club, will win, even when considering their last leg encounter. Roma appears to be in good shape and well-prepared to win, and I think this is because they are better than Servette and will therefore have the advantage to win.

Servette may look strong at home, but I don't think they'll put on a particularly strong display against Roma that would end in a draw. In the next two hours, let's watch how things develop and predict what might happen on the field.

Well you were right afterall cause if you check the scoreline currently you'll see that Roma are currently leading by a goal and even dominating the game, they're on the verge of ending the 1st half and I doubt if Servette would be able to get a comeback before the 1st half ends, Lukaku is currently in a very good form since he returned from the international break and he was he one who hit the target to put his team in front and it was a fine assit by Diego Llorente that lead to the goal.

 Well it's not the end of the game yet and anything is possible, let's she if Servette would be able to turn the game around and get a comeback or Roma would add more goals to seal the 3points, left for me I think if there's any team to score more goals then it is going to be Roma cause they pose more threat than Servette even in their home ground.

Manchester United seems to have found a good way to win the match. They have improved even though all the teams they beat were not strong teams, but this can encourage players and teams to play better to win other difficult matches. Including the match against Newcastle, it is a difficult match which could possibly be an obstacle for United in maintaining consistent performance. They can still lose even though this team has been very good in the last few matches.

Newcastle is a team that has developed rapidly in the last two seasons. Eddie Howe really succeeded in turning a team with an ordinary squad into a better quality team. Of course they haven't proven much other than good form, but I'm sure they will improve even more if Howe gets more budget to buy quality players.
Well they might have succeeded in beating a team that got deducted points and are currently in the relegation zone but after a very disappointing performance in the UCL against Galatasaray the united team is going to face lots of pressure playing against a very inform Newcastle team that defeated Chelsea in the EPL in their last match and drew against PSG in the UCL match, the Eddie Howe's boys are very active, a very inform team that would pressure any team they face recently and Manchester united are not going to find it easy playing against them.

 Eric Ten Hag needs to start getting his decision right, he needs to know the exact players to feature in a match and make the necessary changes at the right time to keep the match in their favour, else if he gets it all wrong again against Newcastle he's going end up being embarrassed with a good scoreline by Newcastle especially now one of their key player Isak is back from injury.

Mikel Arteta and his troops must be really satisfied with the landslide victory they achieved against Lens. Because it was revenge for Arsenal's previous defeat when they competed in front of Lens supporters. And with this victory Arsenal have really paid for their defeat in the previous match. And of course with more cruel replies. 6 goals without reply would really be a nightmare for Lens. It seems that Lens are too confident because in the previous match they were able to win against Arsenal. They did not expect that they would experience such a painful defeat in that match.
And Arsenal is now in a safe position in Group B to qualify for the next stage.

In Group A there was absolutely no change in the ranking in their group. Because both matches in Group A all ended in draws. Bayern also surprisingly only got 1 point in front of their own fans. Even though as the host I hope Bayern can win easily. And Man Utd have also wasted their opportunity to get full points in the match against Galatasaray. In fact, if they win, Man Utd can be a little calmer for the next match. Now Man Utd is really in a more difficult position because in their last match they had to face Bayern, of course the quality of their game is currently above Man Utd. Although I think the depth of the squad is almost the same. But Bayern's consistency is much better this season.
Arsenal gained back their win that Lens took. Lens had to embrace defeat away from home yesterday. Although they went to the game with so much zeal and confidence to play to win but Arsenal did what they know how to do best to give them a payback of the defeat they suffered in the first leg. Arteta's side are also a good team in the EPL and their UCL performance has been impressive. Yesterday's win gave them more concrete chance to qualify for the next round. We  believe they can do better in their last game and secure their final group win and even be threatening to the other teams in the subsequent phases of the contest.

 For Group A, yesterday didn't actually make any change in the table standings as all the four teams ensured an equal share of points. The final decider will be in their last group game and Bayern are very much going to scale through, for Galatasaray and Manchester United, their chances are slim as well as Copenhagen, these three teams would have to battle it out for either a spot in the round of 16 or in the Europa League but the certainty is, one of them would be ending their European tournament journey next week.

I think what happened to the Berlin Union has been going on for a long time (a few weeks), of course it is impossible for the problems that occurred in the Berlin Union team not known, but it is true that information is still closed so it is difficult to identify what problems actually occur in the Berlin Union until
Experiencing such a bad performance.

If the problem is between the notions of players to the strategy that the coach applies, I don't think it will be long like this because there should be an evaluation every time after the match, and we know that previously the Berlin Union played pretty well, of course if the coach wanted to conduct experiments one or two times the match To try a new strategy is enough, and return to the previous strategy.

I think if the Berlin Union continues like this, A.Jorge will be lose because it is not his ability this season.
Most times, we get to see situations where the coach and the players get to face disagreements amongst themselves, the coach techniques not being in line with the players' style, yes all these makes for a team's poor performance. Union Berlin has been experiencing a decline in their display for a while now and one can't predict the source. The coach on his own part has tried different new strategies and means to see if they can be better and play at their best but it keeps failing. Maybe the team as a whole needs to be sat down and talked too from the head to the least person.

 Their performance is derailing and they can acknowledge the fact therefore, they should find a balance in fixing the loopholes. For the coach, he should task his players, there's no harm in experimenting new techniques to football but the coach shouldn't make a mistake of trying something new, noticing the error and thereafter still repeat it again. It'll cause a breakout in the team and the players' too will be affected.

 For the players, they ought to be open to learning new methods, no skill set is a waste, it may be their own unique style so they have to embrace it. Yes their games in past must have not been too favourable but it's not a cause for blockade, there should be more and more encouragement and team spirit that keeps them pushing.They were better than this earlier in the season, they can get back to their old self, just time is needed.
2290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: November 30, 2023, 01:59:05 PM

Why do I feel like you are speaking in the tones of a chelsea fan. What makes Osimhen’s going to Real Madrid a joke? Is it that he doesnt have the capacity or he is too capacitated to play for the Real Madrid, i don’t think any of these cases will be the case because Osimhen is a really good player and won’t hesistate to leave Napoli for Real Madrid if he’s availed that opportunity.

 In Real Madrid he will live a more comfortable but competitive career. Comfortability becasue he will have the chance to play with some of the best La Liga players right now and coach, regardless of who succeeds Ancelotti , either Xabi Alonso or Zidane. He will enjoy to play between young promising players like Bellingham amongst others. He will lesrn a lot in the Real Madrid.

This is not to say that there won’t be anything for him in Chelsea but he is likely to face more challenges in terms of the squad deprh than he will with Real Madrid.
Oshimen is a great asset to Napoli. He still has a lot in store for them and it'll be very hard to let him go. Although the decision will be his to make at the termination of his contract with the club and I believe whichever move he decides to make will be in his best interest. Yes Chelsea are aiming for him but will be want to join them? I don't think either that currently Chelsea would be able to contain his capacity and even help him get boosted. Chelsea as a team are lagging behind and they sincerely pose a threat to a better outcome of his efforts with them.

 Also considering Real Madrid as an option, they've got more advantage than Chelsea because they're in the toppest form possible and they've got young, vibrant and agile players that can suit and complement Oshimen. He personally would enjoy his time with Madrid. Real Madrid are just one team that are undeniable good and the envy of every other teams, many more young players will be so eager to join Madrid, they've got a perfect manager for them at the moment and even after his exit from the club, the options for them are still at the toppest form, Alonso or Zidane would surely be a better head to the complete Real Madrid team.

Till this time Ten Hag doesn't make a significant impact on the team, it suggests that his performance isn't up to good for MU. Exactly, it's not solely Ten Hag's responsibility, as there are 11 players on the field and a significant support staff behind the club that also influence the team. However, it seems like Ten Hag's strategies is the main reason here and might not be the best fit for a club as prominent as MU. The current playing style of Man United is notably very very poor, and its progress is sloooow.

MU is eyeing Carlo Ancelotti to replace Ten Hag, but it appears Carlo has turned down the offer for several reasons, even though his contract with Real Madrid is set to end this season. With only a few top coaches available, Man United's options for a replacement are narrowing. This situation seems likely to extend Man United's period of bad performance into the next season unless there are significant changes in the near future.
Manchester United has suffered series of set backs in both team management and match outcomes, sometimes it's the manager's fault, sometimes the individual players, sometimes it's everyone's fault at thesame time. But I'd say that the manager is to be blamed fully because he's the overseer of the team and he has the capacity to make corrections when things go wrong so no matter how much a player is blamed, you won't tell me that the manager didn't also see the defaults in that player and make a move for his replacement.

 United's squad from back to forth are world class and I believe they just need the right hand. Let's use Onana as an instance, the major reason why he was signed by United was a result of his top notch performances with Ajax and now here's what they get. Is it out of the blue that Onana lost his capability to function well? No. I'm not saying it's the coach that made him the way he is but the coach can as well build him up to be better than how he is now. It's very much safe to say that a change of hand won't be bad for United.They need a new strategy, they also need a new managerial atmosphere, maybe that's where the jinx lies.

The consistency of nice is still being questioned by many people. PSG is now back again to the best form. Other team seem to have small chance to get the trophy from PSG at this moment. It seems like that nice will not be able to compete with PSG to get the trophy. Im feeling that PSG is likely winning the competition again. The club is still remain unpredicatable but the chance owned by PSG is the biggest one compared with other club like nice and monaco.
At the end, league is just another bundesliga which has been dominated by bayern for 11 years. I thought that nice and monaco would be strong competitors for PSG but it's likely we will have same result as last season.

Im not hoping to those clubs anymore. League 1 is just another farmer league for PSG. There must be billionaires who will be able to invest their money on the french league. Otherwise, PSG will keep dominate it.
There was no club who has same valuation like PSG in the league 1.
Yearly, the Ligue 1 always have quite some surprises for we the fans. Since they’ve got some nice investments in 2019, they’ve been doing very well, After about 12 match weeks they sit 2nd in the Ligue 1, a point behind PSG and they hold the best defense in Europe’s top 5 league with about 9 clean sheets, and with the way they're going they could give PSG a very tough competition in winning the tournament.

 The way they build up from the back is really creative. But the fear is will they remain consistent because PSG are a team that knows the do and don’ts of this league and that’s one thing needed for winners. Psg have dominated the league because of it’s investment and that’s one thing that’s needed else they’ll still keep dominating this league and that will make the league a farmer’s league.

 And it seems that this will happen with Sevilla's defeat of PSV with a score of 2-3. even though they had taken an early lead with a score of 2-0, PSV was able to reverse the situation despite one Sevilla player being given a red card. In fact, in their 5 matches in the Chanpions League group phase, not a single Sevilla was able to win their match. On matchday six, Sevilla will visit Lens headquarters. It seems that Sevilla's chances of being able to compete in this league are gone. So, there is no need to look at history that Sevilla is the king of the Europa League, but the matches they played in 5 matches were a mess without winning.

 And even if Sevilla qualify for this competition, no one can claim they will be as successful as last season. Moreover, there are competitors who are quite strong and better based on their performance in all events. if, Sevilla came in and met Leverkusen, statistically and on paper, Leverkusen would easily beat them, IMO. I don't mean to underestimate this squad, but let's be realistic, their performance is indeed bad.

As for United, it would be a shame if their match ended in a draw. there is still a chance, but it is very slim. As for Milan, my gut feeling says that Necastle has a chance of getting a ticket to the playoff round of the Europa League competition.
Well, let's just follow what is presented in the Champions League and the Europa League.
PSV turned the tables in the second half and that’s quite a bitter pill for Sevilla and it’s fans to swallow especially holding their lead till about 30 mins to final whistle. PSV went from 2 goals down to defeat 10-man Sevilla 3-2 and secured their place in the Round of 16, finally dashing the hope of Sevilla who are Europa Kings to the mud. Now Sevilla will have to defeat Lens to be able to get through to the Round of 16 and that’s going to be quite difficult because Lens as well need at least a point to go through to the Europa League

 Sevilla has had a very bad performance and might probably have a shadow of themselves if they qualify to the Europa League because in that side of Europe’s top stage we can see some best teams there. Manchester United a team that can’t hold on to a 2 goal lead can’t even win up to 2 matches might have crazy problems qualifying. Milan might not be able to get out of the group, because Newcastle are really showing massive strength and determination, well one thing we love in Europe is that the fun is still on till the last days, but I think with the way things are going I feel Milan are going to find it very tough against Newcastle.
2294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 30, 2023, 12:17:02 PM

But Newcastle has one more chance to play to say that they qualify or not at the UEFA Champions to the last 16, but PSG's scenario must lose by Dortmund in its last match, so that PSG does not get victory points, the two Newcastle must win of AC Milan, to get 3 The full points in the match, and in the end Newcastle can collect 8 points, as their capital to continue to the round of 16 of the UCL.
But if Newcastle loses, or PSG wins, it is ensured that Newcastle and AC Milan will not qualify for the next round.

From the previous season Newcastle's finances were very good and they showed excellent performance to the English Premier League, and I also thought the same that there were no obstacles for them to buy and sell the best players on the exchange in January because their financial support was very good, Newcastle Must really have many alternative substitute players whose performance is not so far, dangerous if there is injury to the main player but a substitute is low quality will certainly make Newcastle's performance worse.
I am quite confident that Newcastle can get another UCL seat next season, if they use their situation well.

Newcastle has been a very sweet team to watch in Europe, this being their first outing in more than a decade and they’ve really showed strength in this year’s outing though they were placed in a crazy group and they’ve got till the final matchday to play before they know who’ll be going through the group stage round, currently they're in a good form and if they maintain this form against Milan in their next match they could qualify for the next round.

 Now Psg will have much of the worries especially if they’re not able to go through to the Round of 16 and Newcastle not going through might not be much a surprise. Newcastle have a pretty good squad depth and that’s one thing that would make them still come and perform in European stage next season.

There are two difficult matches ahead, namely against Inter Milan and Juventus.
If they perform well in this match, it will prove that Mazzarri really deserves to replace Rudi Garcia.
In fact, Inter Milan is strong team they managed to occupy first place with 10 wins and 32 points, while Juventus finished second with 9 wins and 30 points.
So it can be confirmed that in the match against these two team, if Napoli can perform well it will prevent the two top teams from continuing to peak.
Even though they have home match, Inter will try to win the match to be able to widen the point difference with Juventus which is only 2 points different.
We will see how Mazzarri works for Napoli in the match against these two strong teams and we can see how Napoli are working to recover from the downturn they previously experienced.
A few defeats have given Napoli loss of confidence and now they have looked better than ever when led by Rudi Garcia.
Napoli's boss was able to get a win in his debut game against Atalanta last weekend, yes the outcome gave him a confidence ahead of yesterday's UCL contest sith Real Madrid where they eventually lost, it doesn't change the fact that Mazarri seems like a good impact to the team. The loss to Madrid shouldn't be a set back to them giving their best in subsequent games. They've got tough games ahead and they can't afford to loose or perform below standard.

 These games are a test to Mazarri's records and it's expected that he'd perform rightly. Inter and Juventus are currently the biggest teams in the league and Napoli currently seems like they're getting their stance again to counter any team that they may face. We hope to see Mazarri build Napoli into a better team.

all of games in the group A ended with draw as the final results. Manchester united was also getting the same result like bayern vs copenhagen. It seems like that the last match day will be determining which club that may be eligible for the last spot to go to the knock out stage.
I think that galatasray has bigger chance than manchester united. galatasaray will face copenhagen which was not a strong club. Manchester united must have faced one of its important competitor. Bayern munich.
The future of MU in UCL will be determining by how manchester united will able to push to beat bayern munich.

Manchester united shall go all in upcoming match or it will be out from UCL. I think that the chance for manchester united to beat munich at home was pretty small. If 1 of club between galatasaray and copenhagen will be winning the game.
It will become the end for manchester united. Ten hag may be sacked after mU will have done with its UCL journey. There are also many people who doubting united to win the game against bayern.
Yesterday's UCL games majorly ended with shared points to both teams, especially in the group A with Bayern Munich drawing to Copenhagen, although it was expected that it'd have been an easy win for them but one way or the other, the visiting team was at to mellow down the pressure. For United, it was a disappointment because they had the lead at the earliest minutes of the first half and they ought to have defended that lead to the last but they failed in every aspect.

 Now they'll have to be calculative in their chance of qualifying to the next round, it's either they win Munich and Galatasaray takes draw against Copenhagen or they'd definitely go down to disqualification. The odds are very poor that they'd compete to win Bayern. Both teams are far more distant in their strength level but next week UCL final group face off is awaited.

The problem of Manchester united does not come from their coach from my observation and anyone who is suggesting that Ancelotti should be appointment as the new Manchester united coach with the hope of him bringing changes to the team is making a big mistake because Manchester united is very different from the Real Madrid team where the coaches are allowed to make certain decisions regarding the players they want and how they want a particular player to play from unlike the coaches of Manchester united that relies heavily on the final instructions and decision of the club owners before any player is brought to the team. Best thing is Manchester united to be sold and the new owners should allow the Erik Ten hag to use his authority as the coach of the team to make the decision that will help the team and his players.
It's not right to say that the generality of United's backsliding is to be blamed on Hag, it's not fair to do so as even if the man tries his best to set up the team and the players do not want to play right, they'd still blame him. Currently, the issue they face is as a result of general team's negligence to performance, they've gone below standard in all areas and admittingly, Hag too is a part of it. He's the head of the team and he has the responsibility to manage the team rightly.

 He should be in the best position to make proper decisions for the team. Check for the errors, brainstorm and profer variety of processes to getting the errors solved, be should task the players in confidence building too as they keep lacking it weekly.They failed woefully yesterday at their game against Galatasaray and it was believed they'd have the day but sadly they couldn't keep up with being ahead and they had to let out goals to their opponents, that's how poor they've become and they need to work on that act of winning and relaxing to be won afterwards.

The last golden generation of the Italian national team was formed in 2006, when they won the World Cup. After they all retired, their next generation no longer reached the same level, and we didn't even see a single star who had skills approaching the quality of Pirlo, Totti, or Del Piero, or other legends Cannavaro and Maldini. That's just part of it, even though the quota for local players is still maintained in Serie A, only their quality cannot reach the standards of a star player, so they will always be the first choice when playing at club level.

I think Pioli is not too bad at managing Milan, but to bring Milan to the Scudetto he is not the right person at the moment. His outdated tactics and strategies could not work optimally to catch up with the points left behind by Inter and Juventus. Most recently, he just made Milan defeated by Dortmund, previously Inter, Juventus and Udinese had beaten them at San Siro. In short, it would be better if Pioli were replaced, or it would make the situation even worse, Milan might be thrown out of the top four of the Serie A standings, especially in the UCL I thought there was no longer any hope.
Milan has been performing at their less with Pioli, yes he's trying to maintain draws and mild wins but he's not just the man to give the tempo everyone once knew Milan to possess. Milan has been winning games less than usual and they've been loosing more, it's not good for the team. Their current performance is affecting their league struggles as well as their UCL race too. They lost to Dortmund days back in their home ground, which was bad, they've also embraced more losses in their home ground too and it's put them in a situation that they may eventually loose the same games.

 If they get to play away from home and that'd mean two losses both home and away and definitely it'll keep them down again on the Serie A table. Maybe a change of leadership would do the trick for them and it should be considered too. Pioli is trying but not trying his best and it's a best hand that's needed.

Union Berlin is like a team that has run out of gas, and is having difficulty showing its best performance in the 2023/24 season. In fact, we have seen this phenomenon in the previous season, when Union Berlin focused on other competitions, one of which was the Europa League. Their performance goes ups and downs, especially in the Bundesliga. So, they had to go down in ranking and were eventually overtaken by Dortmund and Bayern Munich.
this season, they should increase the amount of ammunition they have to bring in. because, Berlin plays for the Champions League. However, the opposite problem occurred, this team looked like a team that had lost its enthusiasm. The system built by Urs Fischer with his flagship pattern 5-4-1, or 3-5-2, doesn't seem to be effective in every match. Berlin was only recorded as being able to win 2 matches in the Bundesliga out of 12 matches, 1 draw and 9 defeats. in the Champions League group phase, they did not even win a match.

Well, as far as I have read, Urs Fischer actually resigned by reaching an agreement with the club management. and yep, naturally, with a series of such poor performances, the great coach realized that he was no longer competent to handle the team he was coaching. In the end, now Nenad Bjelica has replaced him. The group stage match is his debut match with Union Berlin, so let's watch and wait for the results of how this new coach handles Union Berlin.
Union Berlin was a better team last season but they've been less better this season from week after the season began till now, be it managerial, technical or general team issue, they ought to be doing better. Now they're categorized as the least teams in the league, and it's really not paying out for them.

 Yesterday against Braga, they were able to maintain a draw which although was okay for the fact that they played away from home but at thesame time, they need an improvement in their performance, they need to pose more dangers to their opponents as well. Currently it's pretty much easy to predict the outcome of their games and it isn't supposed to be so. There has to be a change in all areas, there are numerous means to switching from poor to better and it should be implemented.

I am waiting with Cristiano Ronaldo can continue scoring goals for Al Nassr after success scoring every goals on every match in domestic league, he leaded top scorer awhile and Al Hilal will difficult teams for scoring goals?

Looking at these two teams, I would say that Al - Hilal is stronger than the other teams, we just need to see that Al - Hilal has the best defense, they only conceded 8 goals, while Al - Nassr conceded 15 goals, and It's a big difference, Al - Hilal scored 43 goals while Al - Nassr scored 39 goals, and it's a small difference but it shows that Al - Hilal has the best attack in the league, has the best defense in the league and most importantly, the Al - Hilal have not lost in any game, meaning they have zero defeats, while Al - Nassr have already had 2 defeats, this is a big difference in performance. It seems to me that although Al - Hilal don't have a very famous player active on the field (they have Neymar who is injured and won't be available anytime soon and to be honest it seems to me that he won't play for that team when he heals, I mean That's because the team is doing very well without him)

They are a team that has a good coach and has players that are better organized on the field, so in my opinion I see Al - Hilal managing to come out of this game with victory and if that happens then every path for them to be champions will be open, I see how they wouldn't be champions if they win this game against Al - Nassr. I saw somewhere that they were talking about a possible injury to Ronaldo, if this is true and he cannot play in this game against Al - Hilal then it will increase Al - Hilal's chances of winning even more. Either way, I see it will be a good game to watch
Al Hila proves to be the better team in this league, because it’s said to win the league, you’ve got to have a good defensive line to be able to prevent your opponent from scoring lots of goals and credits must also be given to their attack line who’s led by Mitrovic, they’ve not lost any game and that’s a great one to watch. Now the match against Al Nassr will be a really tough one and a victory there would be seeing them so close to clinching the title.

 But Al Nassr and Ronaldo wants this trophy badly and would give Al Hilal a heavy run for the league in this match. That’s why it’s a must watch match for football fans, cause it's going to be very tough and interesting since both sides needs the winning so bad, especially C Ronaldo who would want to add to his title collection by toping the league and maintaining consistency to win the trophy.
