⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid!

[Pab]

PSG and Real easy one group .Galata will fight but i am not giving them much chance
However if Mbape will pause longer  because of injury then maybe  we will have some emotions

Then Bayern and Spurs to qualify nice drawn for Spurs

Group 3 City for sure my next is Donieck

Juve and Atletico to qualify

Liverpool and  Napoli to qualify

Barca and Dortmund to qualify. Dortmund is stronger  than last season

Group G is very equal.Leipzig  has big ambitions i think they will qualify together with Lyon

Chelsea and Ajax from  last group

I am choosing Ajax over Valencia because i love Ajax at all

I don’t think I could have picked a better group for LFC
Napoli are a good team but we should crush Genk & Salzburg in our games against them. I’m looking forward to the CL again, it’s the best & most difficult club competition to win.

I don't usually pay too much attention to the group phase of the UCL, almost every group has already being decided even before kickoff,  , except an upset happens.

In Group F, G, and H though it's difficult to pick the team that will qualify alongside Barcelona, Lyon and Chelsea respectively as the other three teams in the 3 groups are quite capable of qualifying as well, unlike the other groups with two clear favorites.
The knockout stage is where things get interesting.

[Murat]

Some fabulous matches are ahead for Football admirers.

Real Madrid vs PSG (RMA)

Barcelona vs BVB (BAR)

Juventus vs ATM (tough but JUV)

Can't wait for these matches to fire. I marked 17-18 September would be the first matchday of UCL 19/20.

Genk and Salzburg are definitely stronger teams than Red Star so...

Red Star at home is very dangerous

My picks (to advance to the KO stages):

A) PSG, Real Madrid
B) Bayern, Spurs
C) Man City, Atalanta
D) Juventus, Atletico
E) Liverpool, Napoli
F) Dortmund, Inter
G) Benfica, Lyon
H) Valencia, Ajax

it will not be difficult for Real Madrid to get full points in Group A. PSG which might give Real Madrid fierce resistance seems to be focused on the issue of the transfer of Neymar, (Real Madrid is my favorite club)  

group F is very scary and Slavia Praha is locked in Group F, very sorry for them "lol" 

The group stages are here and some have got a favourable draw, while others will have to battle it out. The only exciting group is the F group, where one of the giants will bite the dust. I don’t expect Chelsea to qualify for the next round, even though they have got a easy group.

My predictions:

A) Real Madrid and PSG
B) Bayern and Tottenham
C) Mancity and Dinamo Zagreb
D) Juventus and Atletico
E) Liverpool and Napoli
F) Barcelona and Inter
G) Benfica and Zenit
H) Ajax and Valencia

I agree with all your predictions except the last one.
Why do you doubt about Chelsea?
In the match against Liverpool they really showed very good quality and was very close to win.
In my opinion, Chelsea, Ajax and Valencia will will fight each other for the two first places.
Yes, Chelsea lost probably the best player in the last 10 years but don't forget that Ajax lost even more important players.

No disrespect to Real Madrid or Bayern Munich but I have a feels the guys in their groups won't feel as afraid as before. The fear factor is diminishing for these teams. They're still strong but more vulnerable than they have been in years.

@LFC I really want to meet Real though in the Last 16, still need revenge, for some reason! Over it of course, but want to close the books proper on that one;)

@toma Yeah when I read that all the English teams were happy, I wasn't sure. Chelsea will wither against the youth of Ajax if they don't get their front 3 firing soon. But they will have enough time to do that I guess!

City or Spurs will be the happiest I think, and I say that because Napoli will fancy their chances again.

I can’t wait for Bayern vs Oly and I will definitely watch the match live in the Allianz Arena! 😁

Yeah we owe Real & Ramos especially for the loss in Kiev, that trip hurt me in the pocket & the heart. I still haven’t got over it

To be a bit more light hearted, look at Ramos & VVD arriving at the UEFA awards last night -

‘You vs the guy she tells you not to worry about’





Ramos turns up looking like Ellen DeGeneras on a night out.
VVD turns up looking like the next fucking Bond.

I can’t wait for Bayern vs Oly and I will definitely watch the match live in the Allianz Arena! 😁

the president of Bayern Munich (Uli Hoeness) officially resigned from his club but I'm sure it will not interfere with Lewandowski's game and friends. Bayern will definitely easily win at Allianz when they meet Olympiacos.. I think the match will be very exciting.

Good group for Liverpool.
Napoli is a strong opponent but I don't think that it would be any difficulty in beating them.
It is also good for Liverpool to have easy games in the Group stage in order to maintain their focus on Premier League.

Of course they will buuuut... Greek fans will create a great atmosphere!

[joniboini]

Genk and Salzburg are definitely stronger teams than Red Star so... 

Liverpool wins in the first leg. Napoli draws against them on their away leg. Well, not that it matters anymore. New season, new game.

It is also good for Liverpool to have easy games in the Group stage in order to maintain their focus on Premier League.

Klopp will probably rotate his players. Keita, Origi, Ox, and so on need more game time.

Not an interesting match at all.
Bayern is going to score a lot of goals and probably they are not going to play with their best line-up.
Bayern - Tottenham is more interesting to watch.

Without a doubt this was one of the matches that surprised me in last year's competition and it was the game that almost made Liverpool crash out of the competition because they underrated them. In this competition,  you underrate teams on your own peril.

How good are Valencia and Lille?  Ajax pretty much owns Group H but what does it mean for Chelsea?

Edit:  Lampard should hire RDM as his special assistant for the CL.  Lol.

Ajax sold a lot of their best players so I don’t know how good they’ll be this season. Chelsea sold Hazard too so I don’t know how good they’ll be too.

No idea about Lille but Valencia had a good season in La Liga which is a tough league.

[joniboini]

Ajax pretty much does what they usually did. Raise young players, make them world-class, and sell it. I won't be surprised if they don't perform like their previous season. It might take at least one or two seasons before they can outperform Madrid and Juve again.

Chelsea looks like they're in bad shape, pretty much like MU. But who knows, players emotion can influence their game. So if Lampard manages to motivate them, maybe they can make a surprise.

Emre Can was disappointed not to be included by Juventus in the 2019/2020 Champions League squad. Can accused Juventus of breaking its promise.

Juventus released their squad for the 2019/2020 Champions League. Of the 22 players registered, there is no Can name.
"I was very surprised. Our conversation was only a minute and I was not given a reason. That made me angry and disappointed," Can told Bild as reported by Italian Football.
