UEFA Champions League 2018-2019

[kenzawak]

As some of you may have noticed, the other thread has been locked.
I don't know why but since the next round of fixtures is only two weeks away, a few of us would like the possibility to discuss about it.
This is why I'm creating this one.
As advised by tokeweed (op of the other thread) I believe a specific thread for this season might be more appropriate.
I hope the mods won't mind. Otherwise, just delete this one.
Same thing, if some of you are bothered by this idea, I'll lock the thread myself.

I don’t see why you shouldn’t be able to start this thread buddy. I’m sure most people won’t have a problem.
I have 2 tickets for Liverpool vs Bayern - 1st leg. Very much looking forward to that

It is good to see a new thread for the Champions League around.
I would love to discuss some topics with regards to the matches that are going to happen in two weeks.

One of them is that I think that Juventus may jeopardize their qualification in this early stage. I don't see any competitive performance from them in the last matches and i think that Atletico is going to qualify easier than they have thought.

Fresh news are about Naymar who will not play in coming games because of injury
And Bonucci who is also injured and will pause for few weeks
He will not play against Atletico

I feel you should add Europa league to this thread too. I’ll save some funds to play on Liverpool to win, as they normally win whenever LFC_Bitcoin is in the stands e.g. their most recent premier league match he was there I’m expecting photos from him. I also feel Juventus will be the team to lift the cup, i only see Manchester City, Liverpool and Barcelona competing with them.

No probem with opening the new thread, obviously people are going to want to discuss the games. It’s the biggest competition in European football.

I opened a thread for each competition.

You could at least do something interesting like show what went on in each group and which clubs are in at the KO stages.  Some pics would help too.

And no...  I didn't start the original thread.

I thought you did...but what's with the attitude ?
" I could at least ? "Loool

Didn't you post this a few days ago ?

It's prolly a good idea to start making new threads for both the CL (and the EPL) anyway imo.  And prolly even better to make new ones every season...?  I've been asking everybody about it every now and then but nobody seems to care.  Lol.

I guess you're welcome. You wanted something more to your liking, why didn't you do it then ?  

[tokeweed]

No attitude.  Sorry if it came across that way.  Lol.  Just suggesting that it might be better to put a little more info on what went on at the group stages and which clubs are at the KO stages...  Some pics would be nice too.

I didn't start it cos I didn't want to.  I was honestly hoping hilariousandco would start it.

Ya, it would be nice OP if you could put a chart together of all the matches and upload the results when they happen.  It shouldn't take too long to do this and maybe someone would be willing to help you.

Fresh news are about Naymar who will not play in coming games because of injury

PSG announced today he'll be out for 10 weeks. He won't get surgery to his foot.

It's done but you guys will probably have to remind me to keep it updated.

That's a bad news for them, and Manchester United will fancy their chances of qualifying, PSG still do have players than can cause Man Utd big problems if they are fit for the fixtures.

Manchester United shows great performance in its latest game but I think that PSG will have an easy game against them even without Neymar. He is a great player and he contributes a lot to the game but Mbappe is one of a kind player (in my opinion the best center forward right now) and he can destroy Man Utd's defense in both 1st and 2nd leg.

I'm fan of Liverpool! By the way if you want to check live match results, different statistics, complete schedule of the football matches for today, squad of the teams for each match, information about online broadcasts of the games and many other I can recommend https://777score.co.uk/ this website.

I think if PSG had Neymar fit and Man Utd still had Mourinho in charge then they would progress easily to the next round. But now that United have some form and PSG have some key players missing, I think it's going to be a lot closer than you think.

Right now the only real news is that Neymar will be out during the upcoming elimination stage against Manchester United.

Still I highly see as the team to go further PSG because of all the quality players residing in the team. The players of Manchester United do not have the capacity to overcome PSG.

So, if old thread won't be unlocked, it's good to have new one.
Less than 2 weeks left and finally Champions league will return after winter break. Some things had changed since the draw was made.
First - Real started to play solid in recent weeks. If they continue playing like now, I don't see any chances for Ajax.
PSG were obvious favourites when Mou was in charge. But now MU is a different team under management of Solskjaer. Also, P$G lost Neymar and it changes a lot of things in this pair. Still, I think that PSG have slightly better chances to advance further, but now we can't write-off MU.
Now there are no small clubs left in this stage and it's good for fans of top football. What can be better than matches like Bayern - Liverpool, Atletico - Juve or Tottenham - Borussia already in first round of playoffs.

I feel Neymar being unavailable for PSG will effect them mentally, while they have an exceptional squad his mere presence would have boosted their confidence. I believe Manchester United can take inspiration from David slaying the Goalith, wherein I consider Manchester United to be David. If you’re not aware then let me remind you this Manchester United is not your regular team, and the tactics they deploy change per team so bet against them at your own peril.

PSG are far better than Manchester United even without Neymar. There are still many players that can substitute his presence and win the matches. On the other side, Man Utd is of course in a winning streak and in good shape, but they don't own top-class players like PSG. It is a success that they have reached so far in the competition for me.
