Bayern Munich have secured their place in the next round already cause beating Copenhagen have given them 6 points and they still maintain their position in their group as 1st place, I believe Tuchel must have learnt something from that game, not to underestimate any team in the Champions league, he rotated his team in the game and it almost cause him the match, Copenhagen were suprisenly very brilliant and made the match tough for Bayern Munich, they held them to a draw and even scored the opener goal at the early period of the 2nd half, it was a goal from Musiala and their attacker Mathys Tel  that came from the bench to seal the winning for Bayern.

 Bayern's performance wasn't all bad they dominated the game though Copenhagen made it tough for them, but they were good with the possession and created more chances and deserved to win the game.

Manchester city are the strongest team in their league therefore it is expected that they should win their matches without stress moreover they are the title defenders and therefore needs to be tough against teams like this, they'll definitely go to the next round with about 15points or more being 1st in their group and also theirs a probability that they'll reach the finals again this season and I won't be suprised if Pep Guardiola secure a 2nd win of the UCL trophy with City, cause he's done it before when he was in Spain coaching Barcelona.

 Their next UCL match is against Youngboys, away from home and I feel it's should be easy for them to secure the 3points even though they're away from home,  after they beat Leipzig yesterday in the home ground, City's got a very tough match ahead of them and I believe that's what they'll be focused on currently, they'll need to be careful against Arsenal so as not to drop a point and lose their 1st position spot on the table.

You never could tell, maybe they may stand chance of doing better if saka was among the squad to play against City, however city are currently better than Arsenal when it comes to their performance this season, the only thing Arsenal are better than then with is the fact that they're still unbeaten in the league, however  Arsenal had also had good performance so far and if they hadn't draw 2 of they games they would've been above City with like 3 points ahead.

 Well If im to pick a side I'll go with City cause the got a better squad than Arsenal and moreover Arsenal would be without their star players well I think both teams would score the match might end with a 1-2 scores since Manchester City are the favorites to win the game.

If a club that's desperately in need of the Champions League trophy can't beat Newcastle United then I don't think they're ready to achieve it this season,I'm proud of Eddie Howe for what he's doing currently with his team i love how he's connecting with his players and delivering good results, a win against against
Paris Saint-Germain tonight would be a good record for his career as a coach.
 
 With their performance against PSG, they'll definitely go far in the champions league this season and it would be suprising to see them reach the quarter final or even the Semi's and that would boost Eddie Howe's managerial career.

 I'm very sure that Bayern Munich would move over to the next round cause they've already secured 6 points and that's a very good advantage cause if they win Galatasaray in their next match, which is very possible they'll be 9 points ahead in the table, the match against Copenhagen was suprisenly very tough, I expected Bayern to score the exact goals or more than they did against united, however Copenhagen defence was very solid and distributed the Bayern Munich attacker, Harry Kane was marked out of the game, he didn't even have any chance to get a shot in the match.

 There is tendency that Bayern could lose or draw one of the 6 matches and it could be their away game at Old Trafford or even against Galatasaray, however they've secured the 1st place the question is, amongst United, Galatasaray and Copenhagen who would finish in 2nd place

It's nice to see Lens gradually recovering their form and i hope it remains consistent, they performed very brilliantly last season, and for a team that finished 2nd in the league they were expected to be among the league contenders currently but started very slowly with a poor performances in their 1st 5 games, I love how they played against Arsenal and secured the 3points it shows they're now becoming serious and we could begin to see them be at their best like they did last season.

 I got feeling that PSG would win the match against Newcastle United, this is the trophy they're currently in need of and Luis Enrique would try his best to make sure his boys perform very well and win the match although it's not going to be easy cause Eddie Howe's team is one that shouldn't be underestimated.

If you ask anyone the club Mbappé would like move to by summer alot of people are going to say Realmadrid, cause that's Mbappe's dream team and he tried to move their this summer, but I doubt if Mbappé would switch over to Realmadrid based on the drams that happened last summer and Realmadrid would seek for other Alternatives that would suit that position well,  however it think Paris Saint-Germain might try to keep Mbappé for another season based on his recent performance for the club so far, but i doubt if he'll accept a  deal to move to any Saudi side cause I pretty sure they'll come in demand of him again.

 Mbappé is a star player for PSG and would be much needed for them to be successful this season in both their domestic league and Champions league his performance is good currently and he's scored a good number of goals for them, and Luis Enrique try to make sure his star player remains fit for the rest of the season.

I think sacking the coach would not the solve the problem of the United, their problem is way beyond the coach, from the corrupt and incompetent board, to injury crisis and lack of confidence of players, and it all falls back to how the club owner (glaziers) have handled the club since 18 years ago, I think they need to sell to new owners that is ready to invest into the club and take it back to a better standard, bringing discipline and probably taking back to their glory days, but currently I think the glaziers needs to give ten Hag more time to strategy of getting the boys to start performing better, then hire a psychologist that would help the players build their confidence level, to get them to start performing well like the did the previous season.
 
 However I saw in a news that the board are still in support of Erik Ten Hag despite how poorly the team is performing, and they think he's the rightful person for the present am future project of the club and therefore got no plans to sack him yet, this means that Eric Ten Hag's  job is currently secured for the main time, but needs to work on his tactics as  well as decision making then rest Onana for a while atleast 1 or 2 games to see the 2nd keepers ability.

I wonder why people would think because a star player doesn't score in particular match, makes him less reliable or undergarment, Harry Kane wasn't lucky to get a goal, but his performance was good and you don't expect him to score in every match, moreover the Copenhagen defence was so good and gave Bayern Munich a tough time, they gave them little space to create good chances and that was why they couldn't score more goals.
 
 Well I think I understand why @ tusandii said that,because Kane had no shots, no goals nor assist, and as  star player and top 9 for the club be should atleast get 1 shot however it does mean his performance was too bad cause his presence was felt in the match and after the game his rating in the game was quite impressive.

When the 2023/24  champions league fixture was drawn I had an online argument with a friend overwhere Manchester United would finish in their table, I mentioned 2nd but he said United would not qualify for the next round, well he might be right after all, cause Manchester United currently got 0 points in their group and are at the bottom of the table.

 For them to qualify to the next round, they'll need to best Copenhagen  home/away as well as beating  Galatasaray away from home and probably getting a draw from Bayern of which I've got a doubt about but if they do it would give them about 10 point  which is enough to qualify them for the next round, Erik Ten Hag and his boys have let the fans down and would need to start winning games to get their trust and support again.

The match is,going to be a tough one and probably the match of the win cause it involves two good preforming team in the EPL so far, however Arsenal performed poorly yesterday I'm their UCL match against Lens whose performance in their this season is very awful, Arsenal where favourites to win the game but a careless mistake from their goalie Sánchez was part of the reasons why they lost, and I agree that he should be benched for Ramsdale against City.

 Arsenal might suffer against Manchester City cause they'll be playing without two of their key players Martinelli and Saka who are out due to injuries and would need creativity in their attacking line to be able to beat city's defense, Pep Guardiola could take advantage of Arsenal's lose and come up with a strategy that would make them score more goals, against Arsenal.

Cagliari might be at the bottom of the league but that doesn't mean they should be underestimated cause teams like this are desperately in need of a win to move up in the standings and could frustrate the opposition team from scoring any goal, therefore Mourinho should be very strategic in giving instruction to his player so as to be careful on the pitch and be vigilant not to be taken by suprise and concede goals that could cause them to lose the match.
 
 However even though Cagliari would be playing with a home advantage, Roma are still favourites to win the game, securing the 3 points means alot to Roma and boost them to go up in the standings, they've got the players, a good manager but their problems is the lost they've experienced, they've got 3 loses and 2 draws with just only 2 win and it's declined the players confidence level, I think that's what Mourinho should work to get them at their best again.

I think Tuchel understand estimated Copenhagen by starting some players that were not in the 1st 11, it almost cost them the match but Bayern Munich showed their class in the game, though the winning didn't come very easily but they were favourites to win and did all they could to secure 3poimts and maintained their position as the leaders of their group with 6points.

 However the risk he took was worth it after all, because they secured the three points and the players he rested would be fit to play in their next Bundesliga game, and Bayern need to maintain a good position so as to remain in the top 4 till they finally get an opportunity to top the league as expected, they've been very dominant for more than a decade and I don't think Tuchel would want to break that good record the team has kept, in the regime.

The good thing is that they're scoring and winning games even when the lack a quality striker it shows that the teams performance is very okay and get a capable of yielding good results without a striker, however Madrid still need to quality striker to get more goals and I believe they're working on that currently, it's good to have Vini Jnr back into the starting 11 and his partnership with Jude Bellingham in the UCL match against Napoli was very interesting, no wonder they both scored to help deliver their team yesterday.

 Realmadrid did very well in the 1st half and dominated the game mostly, but when Napoli scored the equalizer goal in the 2nd half it boosted their morale and they began to perform well and even dominated the 2nd half, however their goalie Meret carelessly scored an own goal to put Madrid ahead of them in the game, Realmadrid are currently the leaders of their group with 6 point from 2 wins

Over the years there are only two teams that's been dominating the league and that's Realmadrid and Barcelona and for any other team to start dominating they need to be as strong as both teams or even better than them,but i think it would take a while before we'll see another team dominate the League cause both teams are getting stronger every season and are currently the best in the world, however there are several teams that' tried in thé past to challenge their dominance but failed teams like Atletico Madrid and Sevilla.

 However this season Girona have tried to get this far in the table but i doubt if they'll remain consistent cause they don't have a very strong substitution players that would help them on the long run when their 1st team players start suffering from injury or fatigue there to maintain their form they needs to include more players to their team during the winter windows.
 

They've been brilliant so far and deserve to be in the position where they're, 18 goals in 7 matches is a very record and if they keep up with their good performance and continue scoring goals they could likely win the league this season,i feel they have to work on their defence by the winter window it needs to be well strengthened so as to maintain good performance and keeping consistency, else they'll be overtaken by Paris Saint-Germain when they get back in form.

 PSG are the rightful club to be at the top of the league currently cause they're the title defenders and got a more expensive and better squad than other clubs in the Ligue 1 but they're suprisenly underperforming and  are currently in the 5th position and 2points behind the league leaders, talking about Lens they're  in a very bad form and have started so poorly after finishing 2 last season, hopefully they'll recover their form on the long run.

the way Manchester United also their defense to be loses and beaten by opposition teams, is so annoying and alot of fans,are not happy about it because they played better and deserved to win,but they continued to make many errors that caused them the match, their goalkeeper Onana was very bad today and was part of the reason why the lost the game, i couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw the inacurate pass he gave that lead to Casemiro's Red card booking and it made me wonder why they replaced Degea with him.

 However kudos to the Galatasaray coach for reading the game very well and bringing in super subs to change the game and force an attack on United to reply their second goal and get the equalizer, they played very brilliantly in the 2nd half and didn't united much chances to equalize the 3rd goal.

If they had won the game against Atalanta, it would given them an opportunity to move up the table above Napoli and be in the 3rd position,but they're lucky to still be in the top 4 of the table and same point with Napoli so there's still chance to close the gap between them and the league leaders,well it's a good thing they secured a point instead of losing completely.
 
 In as much as Milan and Inter are continuing to maintain good performance they too need to do so as well so as to be able to catch up incase those two  carelessly drop a point and they'll take advantage of it, Juventus would be playing against Torino which are currently in the 10th position on the table and are favorites to win the game cause they'll be in their home ground

They started very poorly this season and for a club that invested alot to make the team very stronger this season, they were expected to do better, but failed to adapt fast to the coaches style of play, and coupled with the fact that they lack a quality striker to help them convert good chances into a goal, Jackson is a good player but is not really experienced and that's what Chelsea's been lacking an experienced striker that could handle the role of the top 9 very well.

 However in their last match against Fulham they've really impressed their fans with a better performance and several players did really good, especially Murdryk who was finally able to score his 1st goal for the club, thankgoodness one of their striker Borja is has returned from injury into the squad and helped them to seal the winning against Fulham, if Chelsea continues to perform this good they'll be able to move up in the league, they need to win about 5-6 matches consistently to build their confidence.

It would be difficult to see a club that would sign Osimhen for €500 however if it finally happens it's going to make him the player with the all time highest transfer price, but I doubt if that would happen cause even the Saudi's wouldn't want to spend that much to get him and Osimhen In person wouldn't want to over to the Saudi Pro League yet, cause he still has lots to achieve in the European competitions.

 The inflation in his release clause is to scare off other clubs that would come in demand for him by summer, just like PSG did with Mbappé this summer, it's obvious that they've got no Interest to sell him, but I feel they'll be forced to reduce their asking price to the normal €120 or 150 if Osimhen decides to leave the club and try to force a transfer out of the club which is very possible by summer,Chelsea are really in need of a striker but I don't think it would be Interest for him to move over there.
