New era and new faces. Well we have to view the achievements of barcelona this season can this transition period be successful by winning the Laliga trophy this season. Barcelona is dominated by star players and their chances in Laliga are big enough to get the title trophy but real madrid as defending champions also had a good rally at the start of this season. well can xavi make this situation different when they meet in El Clasico later. the international break that just took place also had a pretty bad impact on barcelona because some of its core players suffered injuries which would affect their physicality when they returned to their clubs.
Inevitably they have to force this because even though their target is for the long term but with the amount of spending they spent in the transfer market some time ago and their current financial condition if they want to make a profit they obviously have to bring at least one Trophy to Camp Nou because otherwise this will make things worse and it is not impossible that news of their financial condition is getting worse again next season. |

The long contract of Allegri could be one of the reasons why the club is still keeping him. I believe the club doesn't want to come back to their glory this season, if they wanted to, they would have hired a new coach.
Apart from Tuchel, I think other big names include Zinedine Zidane you mentioned. How about Pochettino, is he handling any club currently? It mustn't be a big name but a new blood.
Money is another issue for Juventus now. Some time ago I read that in the last 5 years they have always suffered financial losses and this clearly has an impact on their finances as a whole. Allegri's contract is still long and when Juventus are planning to fire this coach it is clear that other compensation must be paid. Not to mention finding and signing a new coach also requires a lot of money so they still need to think about this thoroughly. |

For Barcelona vs Inter game will not be that easy as Inter can be happy also with a draw in this game so that can make things pretty difficult.
Bayern Munich played well in the UCL but the games in their League were poor. They are in fifth place. Four games without a win. In the UCL I think Bayern Munich are the favourites to qualify for the knockout phase. Inter and Barca will probably be scrambling for second place. When compared to actually I am more sure if Barcelona win. Barcelona is pretty good in the league, while Inter is unstable. The second game certainly competed seriously for second place. The defeat to Bayern Munich is not the benchmark for Barcelona failing to qualify for the knockout Phase, there are still a few games so there are still many opportunities to have. I won't be discussing Bayern in the domestic league in this thread but still focusing on those in the Champions League. Their strength is still too strong for Barcelona and Inter. Currently their chance is very big if you look at the previous 2 matches plus their opponent in the third match is Plzen. But that doesn't mean it can be easy because they also have to know that underestimating the opponent sometimes isn't very good and they have to reflect on last season's defeat to the Underdogs in the knock out phase. |

Man City is still the favorite in this match because their performance is a bit better than Man United, and in their last 2 matches, Man United always lost to Man City. But I think Man United will definitely give Man City a tough fight because this is a derby. Even though Man United started the season with less than satisfactory results but they have made a lot of progress for now. So I think they have the capability to steal points from Man City.
This is clearly certain to happen, because in terms of player readiness, performance and H2H, it is very clear that City dominates. Even though Manchester United is currently in good form, I think it is still very difficult considering that in terms of attack City is clearly superior, especially now that Haaland is on fire in the City camp. |

I would say lack of consistency rather thank lack of scoring goals.
They beat bournemouth 9-0 this season though equalling the premier league record , it's only 6 matches for liverpool as well as they got too many draw in the early season , if i have to say ... betting on title race for liverpool to win the prem ... it is now , the time is now when they are low ... it would have really nice odds!
This is indeed tempting but the problem is even if they can come back and get a better performance than now but still I'm not too sure if I make a bet for them to be champions. The simple reason might be in the City. Last season they competed until the end but at the moment Liverpool are still missing Mane and City are better because they have a goal machine like Haaland so I am still leaning towards City at the moment. |

Barcelona have had a very impressive run so far. Maybe they lost to Bayern Munich here but their performance was still decent. Their performance in the La Liga has already been very satisfying. I expect them to show the same performance against Inter too and have the control of the match. They can win this to make up for the Bayern Munich loss.
No, I don't think so because they played really impressively in this. But they still have difficulty in communication, especially for the defense line. The first Bayern goal came from a corner which left several Bayern players free to head the ball and for the second goal actually Araujo and Christensen could still hold Sane and Musiala but they lost focus and let both of them through so even though their performance was quite good they still had to improve their current teamwork. |

More and more rumors for a potential Conte Bis to Juventus at the end of the season.
For these rumors Conte is not renewing his contract with Spurs.
Formerly Tuchel and now the bustling Conte. But until now none of these have actually come true and Allegri is still in the leadership seat of Juventus to this day. The strongest reason is their current financial condition. Juventus is currently at a loss if you look at their financial statements last season. Obviously they need to rack their brains and sacrifice whether to re-spend or save but their performance has continued like this. |

In the next round a really interesting game between inter and roma it will be critical for both teams considering the position they are on, they both lost their last game and if they lose this one they can kiss goodbye their chances in competing for the serie A statisticaly inter team is the favourite since they are playing home and roma team is unable to beat them since 2017 but i think in this game it will be different roma team are having a decent performance lately.
Their performance is still not very good at the moment so winning is one of the things that must be done to maintain their mentality and confidence. Roma and Inter have spent quite a lot of money to wade through this season so that their current performance is still considered lacking, especially in this case Inter is one of the contenders for Serie A. Typhoid victory for one of the teams can bring confidence for the next match. |

if you want to have the same strength/level in the striker, as was the case with Robert Lewandowski, you can't solve that with a 19 year old player (Jamal Musiala) or with Mane (who is actually not a real striker). you need to hire a world-class striker who can score goals immediately (see E. Haaland at man city or R. Lewandowski now at barcelona). just my 2 satoshis  Jamal Musiala needs time because he is still very young and obviously experience is still very much needed for these young players. As for Mane, I think the same because he is actually not very suitable to be placed in the target man because obviously he is a player with high cruising range and his function is to mess up the opponent's defense so Bayern need someone who can be a targetman like Lewandowski has done before. |

Thomas Tuchel is reportedly on the shortlist to replace Julien Nagelsmann at Bayern Munich! He was sacked recklessly by Chelsea's management team. Big clubs, however, are always looking for good managers with a record. Bayern's management highly rates the former Chelsea manager. With his German roots, he might be better suited to Bayern München. Respect and better treatment are due to you. Is it helpful to change managers in the middle of the season?
Useful or not - it depends on the situation, that is, if the team's results are terrible, or at least do not suit the management and the team itself, then yes, you need to change the coach and it will be useful. But in this situation, would it be useful? I think Bayern has problems, but not of such a large scale, they can be solved by the current coach But regardless, Todd's decision was too hasty for Chelsea considering that games can still be counted on the fingers and actually there are still many opportunities to improve things. But indeed he is in charge and he is fed up enough with Chelsea's result that there is no hope when he has made up his mind it is hard to stop. Now it looks like it's over and there's no need to go into further detail to regret that no matter how hard it is now Potter is here and there's no way Tuchel will return. |

It is quite sad that a good coach like Tuchel should be sacked,he was one of the best coaches in England,and he also has a good record at Chelsea.I so much believe that this new coach brought in to take Chelsea to another heights will also be sacked in less than no time because as it stands, Chelsea are not getting better or neither are they improving in their performance.
I believe by now,if Tuchel Wass still at Chelsea,they might have gotten a turn around now,because all the players might have blended together.
Everything becomes possible when the higher-ups there are not satisfied, no matter how good he is, he still has to leave because in this case the decision is in the hands of the higher-ups. Todd was not too satisfied with Tuchel's performance even though it was too rushed and it's a shame but we can't do much because he is already gone. Todd may have other considerations with this because during his tenure as the new leader there were some policies that were considered rushed but in the end he was still able to fix it. |

It's been busy the last few weeks when Mane left and was replaced by Mane but it was a natural thing because, as you said, every departure, especially for a player who has always been the focus of a club, will definitely have an impact and maybe with Bayern's current condition it's not impossible. some will think that this was the wrong decision to sell Lewandowski.
The Bayern Munich party who chose to sell Lewandowski was not a unilateral decision from his team, but also the decision of Lewandowski himself who no longer wanted to stay at Bayern Munich for this season. So the deal to sell him to Barcelona is a good thing and it's not wrong at all because Bayern Munich can still get good results this season if they are able to play consistently in every game they have left. But still able to maintain it until next season is not it, even though feedback to Bayern in terms of finances was not met. Bayern prefer money but I think in this case there is a bit of a mistake because we know Mane at Liverpool is one of the players with a long range but at Bayern he became a Targetman which was a bit of a hindrance. They can still be consistent but for now it is still a bit difficult even with the results they are getting at the moment Nagelsmann is clearly a bit threatened from his position. |

But in this case even if it is like that I think achieving the top 4 for them is the most likely thing, the reason is quite simple they don't have players who are really the main focus. although it's good because their quality is evenly distributed but it will also be difficult to compete to the end when compared to big teams that have a line of stars that are definitely experience and flying hours are much greater.
Atalanta always start the season in a good way but unfortunately they always fail to Kee the rythem and they end getting nothing, now they are doing really good and i really wonder if they will be able to break the habit and surprise everyone by playing for the title till the last matches and why not getting it No, I think their fault was only last season and being too ambitious to want to follow and prioritize all the leagues they are in when they can't afford it. Now maybe this has been a lesson, They are not dominated by great players because their quality is evenly distributed on all lines so this is an attraction for them. It would be great if their target is the same as the previous few seasons by being the dark horse and the Champions League target in hand. |

Maybe this year will be easy for him, I don't think Udinese has cup commitments. Maybe he can reach a cup.
But next year, if he gets to this point (the cup) he will become much more challenging.
We will see.
I hope so, it would be nice.
It's a big speculation if they can be consistent until the next game. But I am optimistic that undinese target to finish in the top 4 is the best achievement they have managed to do. but Atalanta are more focused on the pursuit of the Scudetto trophy this season. atalanta's performance is more stable and better than undinese where they have proven their quality by beating As roma in the previous match. on matchday 7 of this season, the big teams of last season are still trying hard to improve their weaknesses such as Juventus and Inter Milan. I think they will find their best form to catch up points from the leaders. But in this case even if it is like that I think achieving the top 4 for them is the most likely thing, the reason is quite simple they don't have players who are really the main focus. although it's good because their quality is evenly distributed but it will also be difficult to compete to the end when compared to big teams that have a line of stars that are definitely experience and flying hours are much greater. |

A few posts above there was a discussion about whether Robert Lewandowski departure had an impact. Of course, every departure has an impact for a team. That is also the case at work. When someone leaves the job we do not find a 1:1 replacement. But I do not think that is the question or the problem here. The problem is in the defence. They lost because goals were scored against them. So the focus from Bayern should be the defence.

It's true that anything is possible in football but the problem is when we look at the current state of Barcelona and Inter it's clear the difference is still big even though they are big teams.
Currently Inzaghi is in a bad condition because Inter's performance is not going well and this will obviously affect their performance.
I'll still be in Barcelona on this.
I would bet on Barcelona as well and I agree that anything could happen, but let's not forget that Barcelona is a freshly built team, a lot of their players came during the summer transfer window, some of them even later, which means that they haven't had the time to build chemistry yet which shows itself time to time, especially during the Bayern game for example. So, if there is any chance for Inter to win, it is now because on the second leg there could be a better Barcelona who played together for a while now and built the bond inside the team, Inter needs to get points from this or they are going to end up losing a lot worse on the second game for sure. Indeed this can be said to be true because with the current time especially with new players obviously there has to be a chemistry to build but looking at them at the moment although it is still not completely solid but I think it is very good for now. Inter's chances are clearly difficult now because at the moment Inzaghi is still hot from his seat considering Inter's current performance is still far from good |

The opportunity for that is still there but it's certainly not like turning the palm of the hand because when you look at the conditions it's quite clear that Barcelona is now better than Inter.
I personally will still be at Barcelona's side in this case because I think they still have more chances than Inter at the moment.
In the world of football anything is possible, but if we do research like you said the answer is clear Barcelona are better than Inter. Barcelona's squad is better than Inter, then Barcelona's performance is also more consistent. We can see how Inter were very inconsistent when playing in Serie A, currently Inter are in 7th position. It is very different from the performance shown by Barcelona, where Barcelona in La Liga has impressed by winning 5 times in a row. What's interesting is that Barcelona and Inter were both beaten by Bayern, meaning the top spot will likely belong to Bayern. Then Barcelona and Inter have to fight for the runner-up position to be able to qualify from the group phase, that's what will make the Inter vs Barcelona match going to be interesting. But I still believe Barcelona will beat Inter, but surprises can happen, so Barcelona must be careful when facing Inter. It's true that anything is possible in football but the problem is when we look at the current state of Barcelona and Inter it's clear the difference is still big even though they are big teams. Currently Inzaghi is in a bad condition because Inter's performance is not going well and this will obviously affect their performance. I'll still be in Barcelona on this. |

The speculation about Allegri being sacked continues to grow and the rumors are that Zidane is a prime candidate if that happens. in recent years, Juventus did not get any trophy and this shows that juve's performance continues to decline, changing coaches could be the best option for juve so that their performance and strategy can be updated.
From several sources said Allegri can still survive because the Juventus management still has full hope for Allegri to be able to correct his mistakes and hope he can recover players quickly and can get a win with the strategy that Allegri must prepare. It is likely that they will recover in the coming season because for this season Juventus points are already very far behind and it is impossible to catch up. The problem is that when he is forced to stay it is clear it will also upset the harmony with the fans especially when the pressure is getting bigger now for Allegri to be sacked. Right now if he really wanted to survive then he couldn't help but rack his brains more because the chair he was currently sitting in was very unsafe. The slightest mistake will obviously trigger a bigger reaction from the fans. |

I am very impressed with the game and the performance of Udinese this season. In yesterday's match with Inter, they confirmed their good disposition. I wonder if they will be able to stay in this form longer and fight for the top places in the league. At the moment, the leader of the Serie A table, Napoli, seems to me to be the most serious candidate for the Italian championship. The fight for the scudetto promises to be fascinating this year.
5 wins 1 draw and 1 loss is definitely a very good achievement for Udinese in this season. In fact they are now in third position for the standings. This is definitely unexpected for those who usually always dwell in the middle of the board. Next week they will face Verona which incidentally is one of the teams that can be said to be bad in terms of performance. This is clearly a great opportunity for Udinese to take full points back. |

Inter can beat Barcelona but this is going to be very difficult.Inter in the first game against Bayern tried hard but in the end they lost 1-2 and by playing against Plzen which is a team that comes from a much lower league than Serie A didn't excel that much in that game either.Barcelona on the other hand has only seen an increase in their games except in the game against Bayern where they didn't go at the Bayern goal zone at all and that says a lot for them.So by judging the performances between these two teams I come to the conclusion that the most likely result is a draw here.
The opportunity for that is still there but it's certainly not like turning the palm of the hand because when you look at the conditions it's quite clear that Barcelona is now better than Inter. I personally will still be at Barcelona's side in this case because I think they still have more chances than Inter at the moment. |
