Losing Rafael Leao must be a big hit to the team and to the squad because he is one of the best players of that team if not for the best player, but they lost Giroud to red card as well which means that he is going to miss the next game as well. I do not know what they are going to do, because next game they are going to play is Fiorentina, who may not be as good as they used to be, but not a team to striffle with neither, they are still pretty decent and could end up with an upset.

I think Milan needs to bring in all the rest of the players and do a proper training to rest them, there are ways to make the players rest better at the club and feel better, then just let them sit at home, because most of these million dollar players do not actually "rest" when left alone, but when you bring them to the club they are forced to rest, and massaged and basically all around relax. They need to put 100% in order to get the win without a doubt.

Slowly but surely, Juventus is rising to the top of the Serie A standings, it is too early to say that they will win the Scudetto, although if you look at Juventus' current journey, it is possible to get it.
Juventus often wins by a narrow score in every match, their performance is not too striking but they are quite consistent which means they can now be at the top of the Serie A standings this season and besides that they are not playing in European competitions so Juventus can fully focus in Serie matches alone, that's an advantage too.

And what you have to remember for this season is that the fight for the Scudetto looks like it will be very fierce because on the other hand the Inter Milan team is also very strong, so I think every team is required to be able to maintain its consistency until the end of the season.

Many Serie A teams since the previous season have not been able to maintain their consistency, as this season has happened to the AC MIlan team, this also creates an advantage for Juventus and Inter Mian to be able to further widen the gap in points on the standings, but both teams You shouldn't be careless about this either.
And I think that the position of leader of the standings will be ousted again if Inter Milan wins this week, it's not a big problem, the important thing is that now Juventus can match and compete for that position.

I was hoping to see a picture attached to the post but it's fine. The new might be true, Manchester City played on Tuesday night during the  Champions League game against Young Boys at home with the score in favor of the citizens winning three goals to nothing. The travel to Madrid could be true because they played on Wednesday night with same score line again Braga.

Mounting pressure on Kylian Mbappe? I don't think so! They'll get whoever they want whenever the transfer window opens. Kylian Mbappe or Erling Haaland, whoever Real Madrid gets into that squad is most likely to win the Ballon d'or in the next couple of years. They both have no time gambling, they just want to slot the ball into the net!

PSG definitely looks like they have a good chance to win, they are the much better team. I understand that some people may feel like they are not doing the best they possibly could, but that is definitely the way it could go on about. I feel like the best thing to do right now would be just making sure that everyone knows what they are doing, and they are at the mercy of football gods.

Normally PSG should have an easy win, but just like any game of sports, the favorites have a "higher" chance but not guaranteed to win, which means that even though we should probably see PSG to win this game, there is a possibility that they may get a draw or a loss out of this too. I do not believe that will be the case and I am going to bet on them to win this one, they should by all cases win with this much spent on the team, if you spend this much and build such a good squad and still end up losing to much worse teams then why are you even spending that much money to begin with.

The match really surprised me today because what I had in mind was that Newcastle United will win Bournemouth today because they have been doing really well this season by creating a lot of good records for themselves but losing this match was what I never expected from them because considering the kind of strong clubs they have meet and won them, I was very certain Bournemouth will not take them much of a time to win them but the outcome of the match was quite the opposite of what I predicted.

Bournemouth on the other hand has been very poor in performance this season because there last 11 match they have only win 3 matches out of 11 and lose 6 matches which is a very poor performance, perhaps considering this there wining statistics nobody will believe they could win Newcastle United today because Newcastle is way beyond them in times of performance.

This big win also proved it to all fans because many doubted that Real Madrid would win if there was no JUde. Even now, without Jude, Real Madrid can win big, and in this match, Vini is finally seen playing again without doing much dribbling, he has returned to Vini who is looking for a goal like the champion he won last time. It was great to see Vini score some great goals from outside the box, his evolution has been spectacular and he is still improving a lot.

In this match, Vini and Rodrygo were great for me, Carvajal, Lunin, Kroos and Valverde also really stood out in this match. If Real Madrid players come back on fire like this they will win the Laliga title this season. Currently Barca is trailing 0-1 from Alaves, a goal scored by Omorodion in the 1st minute, this will be the match, will Barca be able to come back?

Manchester City is planning to sign Chelsea's full back and captain, Reece James, in the summer transfer window. Pep's main focus is to produce a replacement for Kyle Walker as soon as possible because Kyle Walker will be 33 years old now, and in the future, there is a fear that he will not be able to continue the form and morale that he is performing now. For this reason, Pep believes that he will bring 20-year-old Reece James, Chelsea's full-back, and make some new upgrades to the team so that if there is some weakness left, then his shortcoming will be fulfilled. And anyway, I think Reece James's style of play and the new element that a player needs are there.
So Manchester City's decision to sign Reece James to replace Kyle Walker will be based on improvement. Everyone is aware of the performance of Reece James and how he performs well in big games. For example, we have the UCL final of Chelsea vs. Manchester City, in which he had a very good performance. So I think Manchester City boss Pep no longer likes Kyle Walker to play anymore and likes Reece James to play instead.

What do the rest of you think? Will this transfer be better for Manchester City or worse because the biggest problem with Reece James is injury, which has been presented to him repeatedly? He has recently recovered from a long injury.

In the end, Girona was able to win this battle. they were able to comeback and turn things around, even though I thought this match would end in a draw. falling behind first, did not dampen their motivation to keep fighting. As a result, what they are fighting for is worth getting. This victory, it is important for them to keep their distance from their rivals. Now, Madrid is 5 points behind, and Barcelona is 7 points behind.
To be honest, even though the team they are playing against is not a giant team and is at a strong level, Rayo is not a team that is as easy to beat as the Girona team. and I don't have much to say, the point is that so far they have appeared consistent in their 11 matches in La Liga. even though they lost once, in the match against Real Madrid.  However, so far they remain at the top of the standings.

In the next few hours, Real Madrid will host Valencia. This match should not be a problem for Madrid. Moreover, this match was held at the Santiago Bernabeu. We can also predict without having to analyze too deeply, just based on the available odds.  Madrid with @1.37, while Valencia @8.40. The question is, will there be 3 goals in this match from both teams. If yes, the option for both teams to score is quite ideal with the odds. or, Over 2.75 with @1.80. So, let's wait and see how Ancelotti's squad will be when they host Valencia.

The second half is quite tough for Milan has Lecce has equalized the two goals that Milan scored in the first half. The second half is in favour of the host presently has they are playing a good football and still pressuring Milan to score the third goal. Lecce had missed a lot of opportunities in this second half if not by now it would have been three goals for them. Two goals from Lecce under four minutes.

This is a tight corner for Milan because if they don't win this match they will be 8 points behind Inter and there will be criticism on the club. Milan is trying their best in this match but it seems that their host his stronger than them in this second half. If the game ends like this, it means that Milan has won any match since their last four games and they have lost five points so far.
Lecce 2-2 Milan.

Every team in Group F is equally strong. There is no way to say that any particular group is more powerful. This is why Group F has become so competitive. It is not yet possible to say which two teams will qualify for the next round.

Dortmund are in good form after beating Newcastle in their last two matches. The top spot in the table is now occupied by Dortmund. PSG on the other hand lost two and won two. PSG will play their last two games against Newcastle and Dortmund. PSG lost their first match against Newcastle by a big margin. And so it cannot be said that PSG will win the match in the second leg.

AC Milan will play against Newcastle and Dortmund. In the first leg matches against Newcastle and Dortmund, the Milan side drew goalless against both these teams. So it cannot be said for sure whether they will win in the second leg match. So far, all four teams have a chance to qualify for the next round. Even bottom-of-the-table Newcastle have a chance.

In reality the Glazer family can't do much to bring about change for Manchester United, wouldn't this just speak ill of them?
I know the Glazer family also has enormous wealth but they failed to build the Manchester United squad back into the English giant it was several years ago and if conditions like this continue then we will never see Manchester United truly become team to be afraid of.

Many people also think that the Glazer family made Manchester United just business to make more money and some offers were rejected because they wanted to get a really higher price.
It normal for things like this to happen, but they are too concerned with personal goals without thinking that Manchester United needs change and needs serious treatment.

I sure that in the next season or two, if the Glazer family is still like this, Manchester United will really experience their worst phase in the history of English football.
Honestly, it would be shame if a big team like Manchester United had to fall victim to an owner who doesn't really care about the team he owns.

Nice tried their best to win this match, they even controlled the game and took 12 shots, only 3 of which were on target, but unfortunately the result was still a draw. Nice are not yet mentally ready to become PSG's tough competitors this season because they don't have players who are strong enough in all lines and when players get stuck they don't have any other options.

Of course, the draw is very profitable for PSG, who will face Reims in a few moments, and PSG will not waste this opportunity to overtake Nice in first place. I think this match is easy for PSG even though if you look at the h2h in the last two matches they ended in a draw but in this match PSG will field a full squad.

Hmm it was absolutely a dramatic comeback from a resilient Wolverhampton wanderers, this team called Wolverhampton wanderers really played like real wolves, they just attacked Tottenham hotspurs at any given chance they had and believe me Wolverhampton wanderers deserved this dramatic win. Who would have believed that wolves that was a goal down up to the 90th minutes will equalized this match and still win.

Anyway Arsenal have been vindicated at least they ain't the only title contender that lost two consecutive matches as they now have a partner by name Tottenham hotspurs. Honestly, wolves is full of surprises and if there are clubs to be careful while playing them in the premier league I think Wolverhampton wanderers is part of the teams like they won Manchester city that is a title contender and now Tottenham hotspurs that is also a title contender, I think their performance today is applaudable.

So I said that Brighton must be able to beat AEK Athena in the next match because if they get 3 point then they will be safe enough to qualify for the next round. In the first match, AEK Athena certainly managed to beat Brighton and in the second leg, of course the situation could change if Brighton were able to play better to find victory. On the other hand, for the time being in group B, of course Ajax has a smaller chance because it is already far behind the team above it.

The remaining two matches will be quite crucial for them in securing tickets to qualify for the next round. But I am sure that with the quality that Brighton has they will be able to take one place to qualify for the round of 16. Marseille has the opportunity to qualify as group winner if they can maintain the good performance they have shown so far.

PSG are returning to the Ligue 1 again with a disappointing result against Milan in the Champions League. Milan were unable to score a single goal until the game between them. But in this game they didn't just score 2 goals. They even beat PSG in San Siro.    I don't know how many people expected PSG to lose but I wasn't confident about them to win honestly.

Now PSG are going to be hosted by Reims in the Ligue 1. Reims are currently one of the most impressive teams in the season. They are only 4 points away from PSG in the standings. Will Still has been doing a pretty good work with the team despite losing their top scorer Balogun after his loan spell ended. I think Reims will not lose this game.

I agree with you that Chelsea's last win cannot be used as a benchmark because they are in a better position I mean playing against 9 players if that is a normal match maybe the results will be different, as you said if Chelsea are able to go through the next 2-4 games without defeat, it can be said Chelsea in a positive trend. I personally doubt Chelsea can get 4 points in the next 4 matches unless they get the same luck as against Tottenham, but we know that luck does not come at all times and can't always hope for that situation.

This season the fight for European League tickets seems more interesting than the Champions League ticket, we already know which teams will secure UCL tickets but for the European League Premier League teams have many competitors including Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle there is also Aston Villa who is still consistent which can sometimes surprise the opponent.

But indeed with all the limitations and still not good relations between Simeone and Joao it is possible to bring this player at a price of 40 million only indeed for Barcelona this is still a little difficult because however seeing the current situation for them actually the financial condition is still unstable regardless of anything even last season after Xavi brought several players like Lewa and Raphinha they experienced a setback again and even had to cut again and again money for player transfers and that price even though it can still be forced but it will be difficult.

Joao's performance at Barcelona is actually much better than he was at Atletico or Chelsea but it is also not a guarantee because in the end now Barcelona must think of several options whether to try to gamble again by bringing players but their financial condition is getting worse or try to find potential young players in their La Masia like Lamine Yamal who is currently starting to be given a lot of playing time.

They didn't play as usual because they didn't use their best lineup. There were some key players on the bench, Liverpool seems a bit underestimate Toulouse. I can understand if Klopp used some substituted players, he didn't see Toulouse to have a chance to steal points. It is a small team, they don't have many quality players and they are not in their best form in Ligue 1. However, it is a mistake to underestimate any team in Europa League, this competition often gave us a big surprise. Klopp didn't learn much from previous history in Europa League. Although the defeat won't impact a big thing for the chance of Liverpool to qualify to the next round, but the fans must feel unsatisfied with Liverpool game. Also, the players may drop their mentality due to the defeat from a smaller team.

Well, I hope Klopp will be more careful to choose players for the starting lineup in the next match. He must realize that he needs to keep the wins, it will keep the motivation of all players. He also must order all the players to keep playing with high intensity and be more aggressive. Liverpool players should never underestimate any team, specifically for the teams in Europa League.

Really curious to see their performance drop because so far they have won 10 of 12 matches. Girona only lost to Real Madrid and only drew once against Real Sociedad, this proves that they have something else to rely on. I certainly agree that a team like Girona will not be leading the standings for long, unless Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid cannot overtake them due to poor performance.

We might be surprised if Girona can create a points gap with other competitors of 6 to 8 points, but I'm not sure that will happen. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are better teams than Girona based on history, but Girona cannot be underestimated at all this season. Girona looks likely to lead the standings until the first half of the season is over, but of course I am curious to find out how they can maintain their consistency this season.

There are eight groups in the Champions League which are very interesting to discuss on their journey to qualify for the round of 16, but group A is in first place because there is Manchester United. We all certainly understand the scenario for United to qualify from the group phase, and it is indeed a little more complicated than before. Galatasaray have already beaten United at Old Trafford, however they will try their best to win for the second time, and make Ten Hag and his team suffer and cry over their fate.

On paper United are actually superior in many ways, but the mentality of Ten Hag squad is now full of question marks, due to the series of bad results they have obtained. So I'm not favoring United when they visit Turkey this time, I am surprised that Copenhagen is in the runner up position now, even though previously they were not at all considered to be superior.
