The consistency in Manchester United is absolutely questionable because the team has not yet done anything great to accord them with the huge honour. Not for this season. Manchester United have been so inconsistent with their fixturings and if not for the big team that they are, they will have fall below the lines more than they are currently at the table standing.

I will put majority of the blame to the manager, Eric Ten Hag and the management too for allowing all the unnecessary internal wranglings from the beginning of the season till today. It caused the team not to be stable at all and all they were doing were more-or-less like a trial by error kind of game.

Not blaming the owners first means you know nothing about the club, Erik Ten Hag wasn't backed with the names he wanted for Manchester United, the players he brought in are player's he has worked with one way or the other before Manchester United and he can look back and say, this player can impact in this role. Most of y'all just come on here to say whatever you feel like coz of PC ? Crap!

Manchester United scouting team has got to be poor, I believe Erik Ten Hag has already told em what he wants, has be got any better talent? Lots to say but I'll keep it brief.

He had Injured players who had a great last season, they're out Injured so you don't expect them to jave a good form and consistency. 2 weeks until the next game against Wolverampton so, well see how it goes for them to prepare. Having Casemiro and Lisandro Martinez back is a +

According to the SUN https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/25049203/transfer-news-live-chelsea-newcastle-liverpool-guimaraes-updates/

It's said that if chelsea has been rumored to target benzema or firmino as a new striker. Is this a sense idea to get one of them to join in the EPL? Benzema has no experienced in EPL unlike firmino but it's likely the chance is pretty small for firmino to accept chelsea's offer since he needs to keep his promises to the all of liverpool fans. I can't even believe that if chelsea would be thinking of buying old striker like benzema or firmino. I thought that chelsea would not care so match with the crisis on its striker.

There are lots of choices available in the market like guirassy or even osimhen. It appears that Chelsea was willing to pursue one of those strikers because their price was quite affordable for the club.
The club is not even willing to lose another chance to strengthen the club. Do you guys support this?

I personally think that chelsea needs to reconsider it again. Im not saying this is a bad decision, but the club needs also to consider their salary or various factors. If Benzema agrees to join Chelsea, it will undoubtedly shock a lot of people.
So, they will see benzema to play in EPL.

Benzema has been linked to both Arsenal and Manchester United not just Chelsea, I feel like he'll do good wherever he finally decides to switch too, as much as they have attacking midfielder's ready to supply him with passes. He has a good understanding of positioning, right now if he wants a return to a club that plays in the Champions League, Arsenal would be best for him and they really need him.

Manchester United has difficulties scoring goals in the first half of the season, it could still go on if they don't get one, because the backup striker they have is also blunt and doesn't make the attack sharp.

For blues, they want a player who can grow alongside the rest of the club. Benzema ain't swinging that way.

Agent Mbaape offers, whoever wants to get his services then they must be ready to give a salary of € 10 billion. A very fantastic value, last year Mbaape extended the contract at PSG and got a salary of €72 million. Mbaape's contract is only until this year, there is news if Mbaape wants to extend the contract and Madrid and Liverpool are still the main enthusiasts, but with the conditions proposed by his mother then it looks very expensive. I'm afraid it will make Mbaape's career even more lost.  Are there any clubs interested in him?

Source: https://www.goal.com/id/daftar/paris-saint-germain-kylian-mbappe-gaji-eur10-miliar-ligue-1-real-madrid/blt9fc1fe915fb9f48a#csf740519d8ac9a31f

Maybe, if nobody comes chasing Kylian Mbappe, he can join one of them Saudi Arabian sides since all he wants is to play for money. No wonder he had such ego, fighting and challenging players like Lionel Messi and Neymar Junior.
He shouldn't be stupid at this stage, he should know what he wants already and prepare for plan B if it doesn't work out for him. The next five months will definitely decide where he'll end and be. If he wants to win the Champions League and Ballon d'or, certain decisions you must take to be on that level and to be that player you picture yourself to be.

An assist from him last night, did they finally get to wrap up that game with a win at the end? Paris Saint Germans at this point know they have nothing to do to hood him down, he wants the move.

I really appreciate Hojlund's performance at the moment. The guy has just started to improve his game in the Premier League also finally.  Grin  He scored a goal and made an assist in the game so far which plays a big role in Manchester United's staying ahead by 2-1. But honestly I think that Tottenham have performed better generally so Manchester United had better look for increasing the goal difference.  Smiley

By the way I know Hojlund is still only 20 years old. But when we see a Haaland example in the same league too the expectations get higher quickly.  Grin

In the end Hojlund has been transferred by Manchester United with big hopes by believing in his high talent. He should be able to be as effective as he was in the Champions League.

Don't compare him with Erling Haaland, they're no match, get him with someone else, Erling Haaland is on a total different level for Manchester City, he had a good run with Salzburg! Borrussia Dortmund included. He was outstanding and an exceptional player.
Rasmus Hojlund not to be compared with Erling Haaland, he's gradually forging his own personal path.

Go check the goals he's scored during then Champions League Competition, four out of the five scored all came from his hardwork, and good position or intelligence.
He could score more goals only of Manchester United player's can create more for him. Some passes yesterday weren't spot on, they just don't locate him well. In the long run, they have to make their striker a better player.

Marcus Rashford is a donkey if he doesn't removes the mentality of a star up in his head and join contribute marking and closing down spaces for the club, Erik Ten Hag should kindly address it.

With Liverpool and others in the Europa League, I think AS Roma's season will be difficult. Roma's success last season was respectable, but this year is unclear. They overcame Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals last time, but Leverkusen appears to be in stronger shape and strength this season. Roma may struggle due to this strength and consistency gap.

Their inconsistency worries me. They could reach the finals, but winning the title appears unlikely. Not only is their Europa League performance inconsistent, but so is their domestic record. They have Mourinho, a successful European coach, but his expertise may not be enough. How far they go this season will depend on their home and European play.

AS Roma cannot be favorites to win the European League this season even though they were finalists last season. The fact that their performance has been so inconsistent in the domestic league makes everyone doubt that they will be able to perform like they did last season. This season the European league has some great strong teams such as Liverpool, AC Milan and Leverkusen who are performing very well this season. I can't conclude Roma's future because I will wait for the results of the European League playoffs between Roma vs Feyenoord to see their performance this season.
Im also doubtful of AS Roma's European League chances this season. They're inconsistent in Serie A, which worries me. Football is unpredictable, but Roma hasnt made any major upgrades in the winter transfer window. This club management choice is disappointing. As a fan, its hard to see a talented squad limited. Mourinho is a great coach, but even the best require tools. Roma may struggle without reinforcements, especially against Liverpool and AC Milan, who are in terrific form.

Roma's performance versus Feyenoord in the playoffs is essential. My expectations are low. Roma's form isn't good, and Feyenoord is tough. Italy has a rich UEFA history, and Mourinho is a technical genius, but will that be enough this time? We'll see, but Im expecting letdown.

They're not swinging that way also, like they want to get a new set of players that can achieve something with the coach Jose Mourinho. The way a club does during their domestic league games will definitely reflect on how they do outside in them European Competitions involved. But not this display amd performance will enable them win the Europa League Competition.
It seems like them only good hope if they must qualify for the Champions League Competition next season. Cann that really be achieved?

Liverpool. AC Milan and Bayern Leverkusen. Alongside, Marseille and Brighton are also potential winners. Brighton has done well because they have a coach experienced in big competitive games, he had a good time with Shakhtar Donetsk a.

I agree with you and indeed Wayne Rooney is very good player and was star for Manchester United in his time, this reminds me where Manchester United can have good quality.
He is not great coach for Birmingham but some people still believe in this Manchester United legend, even Berbatov, who is Rooney teammate, still believes and is quite sure that he can be great coach.
But if I were football expert who could have dialogue with them then I would tell Rooney to join another team in the Championship League and lead them to move up to the main Premier League competition.
If Rooney can bring the team he coaches from the Championship League to move up to the Premier League then clearly his performance can be considered and said to be quite good.

Quote
Take a good look at the position they was before he was appointed manager and the position they're right now. Embarrassing, it was the right time to see Wayne Rooney leave them.
We can look at what really happened before and after Wayne Rooney appointment, but will it all be worth it?
Of course not so he still needs to prove in the future that he can be great coach, that what he should do.

Who will want such a coach right now?
Wayne Rooney should take a break, take sometime off this thing, have fun, he should go give Marcus Rashford some good levels of knowledge when attacking or he should spend time together with his young lads and kiddos. Take a good look at Zidane and Antonio Conte doing same thing.

It's pretty embarrassing seeing the position they was when he was appointed coach and the latter when sacked. Anyways, Godspeed in his next chapter, I don't go around wishing people down. He could level up his game, yes he can.

It is so fun when someone replies to your few months old post just to prove he was right with his voodoo predictions  Tongue

Hehehehe... Say whatever you want. Wayne Rooney remains tactically inept. Just not that man for Birmingham City. Smiley

It seems that Real Madrid are watching Bayern Munich's left-back. He is Alphonso Davies, 23 years old. His contract with Bayern Muchen expires this year, so they don't want to repeat the mistake of Kroos' move. Kroos moved on a free transfer. Munchen does not want Alphonso Davies to move on a free transfer and perhaps this will make Bayern Munich have to let him go this summer.
Real Madrid actually has 2 left-back (Mendy and Fran Garcia), they don't really need new left-backs. Real Madrid is watching Davies because he has a chance to leave Bayern Munich with a free transfer status. Since Davies is a top left-back, Real Madrid don't want to miss the chance to sign him for free. However, if Bayern Munich extends Davies's contract, I'm sure Real Madrid will prefer to stop watching him.

Real Madrid should focus on looking for a new center-back and right-back. In these positions, some players are more than 30 years old (all Real Madrid left-backs are 32 years old). Real Madrid need to plan to sign new players with young ages to replace the current players. Reece James, Alexander-Arnold, and Achraf Hakimi are good candidates for the next Real Madrid right-back.

Real Madrid has too much creativity from defense to attack, they don't need a lazy defender you  get me? Alexander Arnold remains a lazy defender even if he's one of the best when it comes to passing the ball, any good winger can take him on at any given time, he's so predictable if his teammates doesn't come out to help him defend.

Recce James, has been disturbed with Injuries, they need a competent and consistent player, he does his defending well, but with Gusto taking good charge of that role, Recce James could be put up for sale, Madrid would access his situation but Injury prone player is not who they need.

Hakimi seems to be a great idea, but how can this happen? He's a loyal player to Paris Saint Germany, he needs to leave if he must win the trophy. Real Madrid needs that replacement for Dani Carvajal!!

Bayern are playing a more flexible game on the pitch, whereas they used to play with a pressing character. Their attacks are not so aggressive and effective compared to before. Even though Bayern plays very well on the pitch, it is certain that they are in a weak position compared to their rivals in the Champions League. They give too many positions. Even though he didn't have a striker, it was better under Nagelsman in my opinion. I think Tucheli will be sent at the end of the season.
Finally, Bayern Munich's strength was shown again in the match against Hoffenheim. It was seen that Bayern Munich often kicked towards the goal and managed to break through the opponent's defense easily until they finally got three goals and won this match. At least the distance between the first and second positions was slightly different. and maybe Bayern Munich needs two wins in each match to take first place at the top of the standings.

I would not be surprised if Bayern Munich defeated Hoffenheim because based on all aspects of Bayern Munich it was better and especially Bayern Munich playing at home, the team we are waiting for against Bayern Munich is Leverkusen because we consider Leverkusen to be a worthy opponent for Munich. well, the match between the two teams is highly awaited and we want to see who is stronger while determining which team will be at the top of the standings. Harry Kane as a newcomer certainly wants to get the chance to win the trophy because he has never felt it in the previous team.

That was a must win game even with the records they had at home, I knew they was not going to win and shout out to Harry Kane, he has made the fans of Bayern Munich smile, having such a player and talented player leading your attack makes a good team, they need get a new midfielder since it's pretty obvious that Joshua Kimmich isn't happy to be around the club anymore, I still ponder what's going down with that deal and move for Paulinha of Fulham, he be looking vexed but very Professional about his move that failed to happen with Bayern Munich.

What could have dropped the form of Bayern Leverkusen? Too much rest?
Hopefully they don't fall off the top of the German Bundesliga, it's too early to see Bayern Munich snatch that one from them, they're doing well, I hope it goes down in the second half of the season.
1189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 15, 2024, 05:44:39 AM
It is clear that the center of Napoli's strength is in the player Osimhen. So far, when Osimhen is not there contributing on the field, it will be difficult to win, but when there is Osimhen, then victory will be easy to get. The Napoli coach should be able to overcome this problem and make the team able to work together better on the field because the key to victory in the world of football should be excellent teamwork.
Osimhen is certainly a player that Napoli really needs to support their performance in the second half of this season. And in the second half of this season, Osimhen will not play for Napoli because he will be defending his country in the African Cup. However, in the previous match, Napoli was able to win when Osimhen was not in the team and that was quite good for them because so far they had been quite dependent on Osimhen. Apart from that, if Napoli succeed in continuing their winning trend in the next match, they will certainly be able to achieve their target of returning to the top 4 rankings.

Napoli were the surprise team last season who managed to win the Scudetto but this season they are relatively unable to compete strongly in the top 4 rankings. They lost a lot of points this season and of course they must be able to improve their performance in the next matches to be able to improve their ranking in the standings table.

Believe me he cannot leave the African Cup of Nations Competitions for Napoli right now, at this point it's the National Team that comes first. Even if he decides to leave right, lots of clubs are already chasing and trailing the big man for a long time now, this won't be a difficult issue, all he need do Is come to agreement with a club he likes them project. The Afcon is as important as the World Cup for Africans, very important.

They have Khivicha Kvaratskhelia, he can do the work for them!

For Jose Mourinho, there's no way possible he'll stay another year with As Roma, what a awful show last night, no creativity to Lukaku to score was seen.
1190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 15, 2024, 05:36:47 AM
Manchester United's weakness is that they are always unable to maintain their lead because they are always easily pressed after getting a quick goal. The defense was quite problematic in the match against Tottenham because the players were unable to close down the opponent's movement space and even the two goals that were scored could have been anticipated if Richarlison was guarded well and did not easily head the ball. The second goal was much more ridiculous because it was conceded without any guard from the defender so Bentancur easily scored.


Just as I said before Manchester United's main obstacle was defense if we check the standings and goal records then we will see Manchester conceding more than scoring goal  24 scored and 29 conceded, this is a concrete proof that their defense is very bad and has never happened before. Ten Hag and management must take quick action if they still want to compete in the top 5 there is still time to fix it. Manchester United have gone through 5 matches with 2 defeats 2 draws and one win nothing can be relied upon in this record while Chelsea who previously played badly were now come back with satisfying results.

It's gladdens me to see that partnership of  Lisandro Martinez and Rapheal Varane back, though Manchester United have to invest in a defender a younger one than Rapheal Varane in the long run.. Manchester United lacked that Lisandro Martinez vibes, did you see his in between the line pass to link up Bruno Fernandez from the defense? They've finally had their man back. They'll fix things up before the next game they'll play.

Give Tottenham Hotspur their flowers you get me? They played well and also Timo Werner did well on his debut, I'd rate him a seven over ten though for his performance.

But I wasn't referring to contracts in general, but more to his "golden rule" when he said that he won't stay at one place for more than three years, but he did break that rule for Manchester City.

I think when a coach built a great team and sees how the team thrives and becomes better, it is hard to say goodbye. But what is so impressive about Guardiola is that he built the most dangerous Barcelona there ever was in the history of the club. And then he decided to leave the club, which I still don't understand in some aspects, but I guess he wanted something new, a new challenge.

I think we should hope to see magic from Guardiola in Manchester City because, with the current situation they have in Manchester City, they are not in the good form at all to have a high chance for the Champions League compared to the other teams.
However, Manchester City can decide to put in more energy and try improving the team during the winter.


If Kevin De Bruyne can now get enough practice, it will also have a deep impact on Manchester City's game. It's impossible to replace someone like him, let alone when he is at his optimum and then gets an injury. He scored a very important goal against Newcastle now and this could give him some valuable momentum for the next few weeks. Haaland benefits a lot from a well playing De Bruyne.

Now Manchester City has one more difficult game against Tottenham in the FA Cup. The next six weeks will be exciting for them and I hope they can keep everyone on board and nobody gets ruled out due to injuries.

Injury has to be the only reason as to why Manchester City would lose them form and if Kevin De Bruyne get knocked out of the squad again, there'll be issues because Manchester City would definitely be in a very deep shit they can't solve.
That's the qualities a good player brings into the squad, within the first few minutes into the game the rest was history made, just as Pep Guardiola has said his a damn legend.

The pass, vison to lay that pass for Bobb was awesome, last time I watch stuffs like that in the Premier League was Fabregas launching such for Diego Costa. Bobb also with the fantastic touch and finishing.

The game between Barcelona and Real Madrid is always an important match and that's why after Barcelona lost this match with a 4-1 result there was some news from the fans of Barcelona saying they're going to get Xaavi fired because of losing this game wit this bad result against Rea Madrid which can show s ene Xavi is near to get fired from the team but Deco confirmed that they will continue working is Xavi.


Xavi Hernandez still deserves to be at Barcelona even though his team lost to their arch rivals Real Madrid but that is not the right reason to fire a coach who has brought many changes to Barcelona, and it would be a stupid action to do because Barca's defeat was not entirely Xavi's fault but because the opponent is much better than last season.

Girona was only able to get 1 point from the match against Almeria which is quite surprising, even Girona only had one chance towards goal, usually Girona will quickly recover in the next match, especially since the next opponent can be said to be weak too, Sevilla will have difficulty getting points against Girona unless they implement a good game that makes it difficult for Girona to penetrate their defense, but it looks like it will be difficult for Sevilla to get points in this match.

With all due respect, Xavi Hernandez has to still be the right man, when you look at the situation, he has done his part, just like Deco the club director said, Barcelona currently lacks the funds to get the desired players they want which has affected them in several areas, they need at leas, a new set of players each in every position of the pitch. A new defender, midfielder and also Central Forward. Robert Lewandoski scoring gave me joy, at least, he can get back to scoring ways from here.

The break and rest down on Girona I see , they lacked that force, they struggled to score and Almeria did pressure them on several occasions. I know they have good records against clubs below ten position, what happened to Almeria?
1193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 14, 2024, 11:27:43 PM
Of course, Real Madrid will always prioritize to sign a new top striker as long they don't get a proper replacement for Benzema. Mbappe and Osimhen are the main target for Real Madrid, they probably won't stop if they don't sign one of the strikers. Regarding Joselu, I don't think he played too badly, he played quite well. He proved that he could score some goals so far. Although he rarely played as a starter, he still could contribute by scoring few goals. However, it is true that Joselu isn't a proper striker that Real Madrid expects. Joselu still wasted many shot attempts in many matches, specifically in the big matches. Anyway, I don't think Real Madrid attacking line is worse, they are strong enough. If they are worse, Real Madrid won't be in the top of La Liga table and played almost perfectly in UCL.

Davies transfer will be good for Real Madrid. He will strengthen Real Madrid defense. However, I don't think it is an urgent thing, Real Madrid has good number of defenders.
Real Madrid has always been linked with Mbappe and Osimhen but in reality Real Madrid has not given any indication that Real Madrid management will make an offer for these two players in this transfer window. I don't think Ancelotti will take a big gamble to recruit Osimhen because Osimhen performance has declined relatively this season, which could be a big blunder if Real Madrid recruit him. Even without a suitable replacement for the position left by Benzema, it seems that gap can be covered well by Ancelotti this season.

It is true that Real Madrid are looking for a goal machine for their center forward this season but I don't think they will be in a rush to target a quality striker this season. If we look at Real Madrid, they are almost transitioning their squad from old players to young players, so there is a reference that Real Madrid management will look for young talented strikers to prioritize in the long term.

They're both top players bit between them names mentioned, Kylian Mbappe is the closest towards joining Real Madrid, Victor Oshime? No! He has mentioned joining Manchester United or Chelsea, but never Real Madrid.
It's every young players dream to play for the biggest club in the world though. President Florentino Perez after he was asked about Kylian Mbappe joining them, he said no comments about it for now.

Manchester United anyways has finally let Hannibal leave for Sevilla on a six months loan deal, I think he'll also be sold out at the end of the season. A return to Manchester United? Not possible!!!

Aston Villa made me sad by failing to win against Everton today as my bet lost.  Undecided  I was actually excited in the second half because Aston Villa really dominated the half. Everton didn't even have a shot on target in the half but still they managed to secure a draw by 0-0. I don't know how there was no goal in this game honestly.

The other game was quite delightful to watch. Tottenham were always in the game and managed to score the equalizer every time. Manchester United couldn't do what they did to Aston Villa this time. But at least Hojlund continued to make progress by making a contribution of one goal and an assist.  Smiley

Really? When did we see Calvert Lewin and James Garner shooting them shots? That was in th first half of the game if I'm correct. They did score a goal bit it was ruled offside.
Everton also pressed hard, they're trying hard to move above the relegation zones this season, they're not doing so well but he'll they're fighters and would not fall below into the red zones.

Manchester United was poor at them set pieces, Pedro Porro also had good delivery of the ball into the eighteen yard box. Both Jonny Evans and Andrea Onana couldn't at least save that hola scored. Poor marking poor goalkeeping from Onana.
God! I miss Andre Onana.

Milan are destroying Roma by 2-0 at the moment. Roma are just terrible in the second half now. They need to play much more active in the attacking line by taking bigger risks from now on. Mourinho must be wishing Dybala wasn't injured because he really needs him now as it seems. Lukaku - Dybala is the best duo in the attacking line for them in the squad currently.

I don't think Roma will be able to make a comeback from this point. Maybe Milan have also had some inconsistencies in the league recently but I don't expect them to make a big mistake in a big game like this while having this score advantage.  Smiley

EDIT: Roma have just scored and made it 2-1 now. Can this be a silver lining for them? We will see.

Names like Christian Pulisic and Loftus Cheek has really improved, those who watched the game would know how impactful they've been in the game today alongside the number seven jersey player.
Great night also for playersik Oliver Giroud, Leoa and lastly, Theo Hernandez.

Lazio and Lecce alsk had a tough game, the first was rough and hard which almost lead to some minor issues in the first half of the game. The female official and linesmen did well to stop that from happening.

Great goal from Filipe Anderson, ad he send that rocket into thr back of thr net.

You're right about Roma's problems with Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen. These clubs are serious, and Roma's form isn't prime-time ready. The twist: Mourinho. He's a tactical genius who can surprise when it counts. Remember his Roma semi-final run last season? That wasn't luck. His strategic brain works.

I don't like Mourinho's defensive tactics, but they work. Roma needs that now. They must first beat Feyenoord, which isn't guaranteed. Mourinho's leadership makes me feel euphoric and anxious. I'm ready for the wild trip. If they get past Feyenoord, we'll see how they compare to the big guns. Football is unpredictable, but that's its appeal, right?

Mourinho is the one who makes the difference and squeezes the water out of the stone, that's for sure. And it is naive to assume that he can build a galaxy from the usual set of players, so naturally we see mainly defensive tactics and tactical decisions that allow him to beat stronger opponents, even if these decisions are not spectacular.
An additional advantage that Roma has is that Liverpool and Bayer are primarily focused on the title race. Both clubs have a chance, and if Roma meets them not in the final, but in earlier stages, then Roma will have increased chances in my opinion.

The As Roma I watched today won't be able to win the European Europa League,  They don't have a good link up, no coordination, they just go ahead to defend run to and fro and try to to score. It could be that the sheep's are in disarray since. The shepherd has gone missing in the game today.

Count them out of winning the Europa League Competition at the end zof the season.
I think it's time for Jose Mourinho to leave the European Competitions and move to the Saudi Arabian Premier League Competition. Having such a persona in that league would be great.

I think the final match will be Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich. City is indeed very strong in the Champions League and they are also the defending champions. De Bruyne's injury had a big impact on City's game and we know last season they won the treble with a big role from KDB and Haaland. So I favor Madrid vs Munich which will be the final match. I put City in third place and Barcelona in fourth place. I think everyone should not forget Barcelona because they are also one of the strong teams in the Champions League even though their current performance does not make them one of the favorites to win this season.

I don’t think that the likelihood of such a final is high - firstly, the teams can meet at earlier stages of the tournament, and secondly, they are not favorites. Take a look at the bookmakers' odds on who will reach the final:

Manchester City 1.96

Fc Bayern Munich 2.58

Real Madrid 3.19

Arsenal 3.68

Now the quotes are a little distorted because City have the easiest opponent of all possible and we can say that City are already in the quarter finals, but in any case they are the favorites of the tournament and in order for us to see the final without them, someone has to knock them out. I would like to believe that someone will succeed.

Why's Arsenal on this list? They're not the side to leave there,I'd rather want to see Paris Saint Germans.

Real Madrid with that odd because they have no good enough striker. They're still my favorites to win regardless.

Bayern Munich are good I just double doubt the impact Thomas Tuchel can bring Into Bayern Munich and the players,  Manchester City yet again Buzzing with the return of Kevin De Bruyne back. He's already made a great impact right now in this game. They have a very good chance of defending but I won't support until they do win.
Actually, I understand your Arsenal stance. I wouldn't write them off despite their struggles. They're tenacious after losing three straight in the league and could surprise us in the finals. Kevin De Bruyne's return boosts Manchester City. He had a big impact, but football can change quickly. City may be at its best, but UCL is different. At Bayern, I'm undecided about Tuchel. The Bayern coach is good, but whether he can maximize their potential is unclear. How it ends intrigues me


UEFA Champions League is different that's why a club like Arsenal cannot go far, all of these things they did during the group stage was just for the main time. How consistent can they do that? They're not the club in the Champions League to fight for sthay trophy. They're bottlers and should make sure they go about trying to win the Premier League Competition.

I still doubt if he would last long as a coach for Bayern Munich. I would love to see him in the long run. Though he already has a good understanding of the German Bundesliga, let's see if he could go ahead to snatch the league from Xabi Alonso.

Stuttgart should have no difficulty against Gladbach, but once again the hosts are definitely aiming for the same number of points so they can continue to survive in the Bundesliga. Stuttgart may be at the top at the moment but if they can't win against a team with quite a big gap, it's certain that Stuttgart will have a dark end to the season. A narrow defeat may be quite natural, but with a difference of 2 it proves that Stuttgart does not have complete control.


They're literally nothing and nobody without Serhou Guirassy? I didn't see the game against them today though not even the highlights of the game.
The welcome back to the second half wasn't a great start for them, I hope they get everything right from the next game, they're amongst my hot picks to qualify for the Champions League.

Too much has already been said about Jadon Sancho, he's a big name, just some level of pride otherwise he'll be rocking with Manchester United. Good luck with him though, I also hope he's playing well. Lol.

Enjoyed a wonderful match between Monza vs Inter team in today's match in Italian League. Inter team won the match today by scoring 5 goals. On the other hand Monza team scored 1 goal. From the beginning to the end of the game Inter team players played very well. H.  Çalhanoğlu scored the first goal in the 12th minute.L.  Martínez scored the 2nd goal at 14 minutes. Çalhanoğlu scored the 3rd goal at 60 minutes. L.  Martínez scored the 4th goal in the 84th minute.M.  Thuram scored the 5th goal in 88 minutes. H. Çalhanoğlu and L. Martínez played very well in today's match.

Obviously, Monza does not have the quality to beat Inter because after all, at this moment Inter is still in the title race and therefore, there is no good reason for Inter to fail to win this match . Even though Inter played away and because due to the huge difference in quality then ya, Inter still managed to dominate this match well. Also, Martinez was the match of the match and ya, I think it was deserved because of his good performance in this match too. By achieving these three points, of course Inter remains firmly at the top of the Serie A standings and of course, it will make it difficult for Juventus to take over the top position.
Inter is progressing with a settled squad and a clear understanding of the league. I don't know how far Juve can follow. After last week's game I think Inzaghi was angry with his team, they played very effectively at the beginning of the match and finished early. Anyway, when they are fully concentrated, it is obvious that they are too much for this league. Serie A has become an interesting league in recent years. The champions of the last 4 years are always different teams. It is already the 3rd biggest league in the world after Premier league and La liga. ahead of the Bundesliga. I won again thanks to Inter's tremendous playing power.

Inter Milan are currently unavailable for losing, they're unstoppable, they have come a long way, playing too much game whenever the Champions League resume is something that would affect them though.
They have done well in the game against Monza yesterday they played like a big team should dominate great evening if you ask me. Juventus are also doing well, they will have to fight until the end, Coz Inter Milan not slacking

Ac Milan on fire tonight, they have just been playing better than As Roma. This is not the Roma that'll win the European Europa League Competition, Not at all.

The more Xavi Hernandez remains at Barcelona the more the team would be in big troubles, I am not seeing any good tactics from this team and today's match against real Madrid just proves it, Barcelona defense a playing a high line when they can't actually keep an offside, it's three goals to one now with Vinicius Jr getting a hat trick in the first half. I think this game would get worse for Barcelona because I don't see how they want to recover from this.
Xavi Hernandez is not the problem of Barcelona, rather he's been careful with the club and have focused his attention 100% towards the club. Unfortunately, Barcelona are looking good in appearance specifically in matches this season, we have seen alot of things gone wrong in Camp Nou but none of them connects to the club. Let's rechannel our focused on the game between Real Madrid vs Barcelona, complex actions triggered. Halftime and we have 3-1 on the scoresheet. Real Madrid leading with stellar performance and I don't think Barcelona have good chances because they're weigh below the pattern.

Everybody can go ahead to say whatever they like, he has done his best, the lack of funds to get desired players has been a huge blow on Xavi Hernandez and his Barcelona side.
With the last game against Osasuna, you could see that the defense wasn't good enough and it was pretty obvious today. Nothing much to expect from Barcelona, it was another embarrassing lose.
Seeing Robert Lewandoski scoring gladdens me, El Classico games are like this. I can vividly recall the session with Benitez Barcelona wosns four goals to nothing.

Three goals for the Brazilian tonight, he owned all of Camp Nou players Tonight.
