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

[Alisha-k]

Not all of your opinions are correct because basically a team's good record in the past will make the players more motivated to keep it. I think that's happened to Real Madrid's players this season in finals because I see them much more motivated to maintain their winning record in finals. But maybe we will see something different next season from Real Madrid because the competition will get tougher where some big teams start to improve their team strength.

Yes, it is difficult to describe everything that has happened at Real Madrid this season. Real madrid can make history and Real madrid can turn things around from Manchester City and PSG who can make everyone admire Real madrid. Ancelotti's tactics with Real Madrid this season have been quite successful with great motivation and strong cooperation making Real Madrid able to win the Champions League Trophy. Next season the competition will be even more exciting because several teams that have been absent from the Champions League for a long time will return, such as Tottenham Hotspur.

Real Madrid's success this season has been extraordinary.  Los Blancos really showed the mentality as a real European ruler.  Many people were initially pessimistic about Madrid, but Karim Benzema and his friends were able to answer those doubts with brilliant results.  Next season Real Madrid will be even more challenging, but I'm sure Carlo Ancelotti understands the needs of his squad very well.  And next season Madrid will most likely be successful again.

I think they are set to carry yet another title for a season that hasn't even started. Lolz😁 Karim and his friends have proven that its not only about being the best but by also being a team player will and can enable them be the best.

Doubts over Real Madrid were heard the first time they competed in the last 16, yes those doubts arose not without reason. Moreover, they had to suffer repeated defeats in the first leg after the knock-out phase. But in the second leg they managed to make a perfect comeback.
Doubts over them are getting bigger when they have to face Liverpool in the final, and unfortunately they seem to justify when they have to play under pressure. But with all their composure when pressed Real Madrid managed to score a goal to ensure victory.

Although I was among those who doubted Real Madrid in the knockout stages but honestly, those doubts disappeared when Real Madrid got to the final round. Because for me, Real Madrid's journey or process in the knockout stages is not just about luck and it's not easy, because if I consider no team can have that kind of luck. Just imagine, when Real Madrid had to get rid of big teams that were even at their best, but Real Madrid always got a comeback in the second leg. Therefore, if I compare it with Liverpool's journey or process in the knockout stages, Real Madrid is still the favorite in the final. But somehow, at that time Liverpool were the favourites and that reflected in the odds and yes, in the end Real Madrid really had quality and it wasn't just about luck.

this is Real Madrid with all its advantages, apart from that their current coach Don Carlo Ancelotti is one of the most successful coaches in the European arena, next season there will be no significant changes in the Real Madrid camp even they are improving for the better. I hope Real Madrid will be able to reap the same success by retaining the title as they did in 2016 to 2018.

"Real Madrid is just lucky" That's the word I've always heard, from the knock-out stage to the final. Real Madrid was lucky to beat PSG in the last 16, Real Madrid was lucky to beat Chelsea in the quarter-finals, and so on. Lol
I couldn't believe they were saying that by luck, until Real Madrid completely silenced those who doubted them.

[MrcMrc]

I saw Benzema leaving real Madrid although this will be a big advantage to the club that will buy that star player, Real Madrid will need to replace the position Benzema is leaving. I see a lot of new players that have great potential to put Real Madrid in the 1st spot next season.

[Pandu Geddon]

But somehow, at that time Liverpool were the favourites and that reflected in the odds and yes, in the end Real Madrid really had quality and it wasn't just about luck.

I was one of Liverpool's favorites in the final. but unfortunately, Liverpool lost the moment of fighting for the most prestigious trophy in mainland Europe.
Madrid looked overwhelmed when they had to lose several times in the first leg against a strong team. but Madrid showed a winning mentality with a comeback that took Madrid to the final. I believe it's not luck. Madrid does have the quality of the game to win.
in a final featuring only 1 leg, I hope Madrid is not that strong. vinicius became a player who buried Liverpool's hopes.

I don't think Messi's era is over yet he can still play 2-3 more years but for his contribution to PSG, the quality of Lionel Messi is still not visible, but it's different from the Argentine national team where his contribution really gives positive results for the Tango Team, because we know that Messi is still under the shadow of Neymar and Mbappe so that it affects his performance at the club located in the city of Paris, perhaps his departure from Barcelona is inseparable from the financial crisis experienced by the Catalan club so that they can no longer afford to pay super expensive salaries.requested by Lionel Messi himself so that Barcelona decided to release him to PSG in the midst of Barcelona's own financial crisis

He can still contribute but in terms of performance this has obviously gone downhill especially to be at PSG at the moment.
His performance has decreased considerably and that is a fact because the age factor is also decisive in this.
On the other hand, the players at PSG are also almost all players who have famous names so it is difficult to be conspicuous.

That has been what many have been saying concerning about Real Madrid that they are lucky till they won the champions league,  Real Madrid has always have the mindset to win every of their and they work towards that . Before Real Madrid won the champions league  , Real Madrid was look in a way that it was impossible to win against Liverpool. Real Madrid team played wonderful game this season,  they  knew they can win their games.

I also don't know why people underestimate Real Madrid's amazing success last season. It may not be seen as true that their luck helped them also but this wasn't the thing all about them in the end. They deserved to eliminate every single one of their opponents until achieving the title. They eliminated very big teams consecutively too. I don't think that any team can do this very difficult job only thanks to their luck. Real Madrid fought really hard and particularly their offensive performance helped them do this.

[dataispower]

I absolutely agree with the opinions about Messi that his era has ended. Barcelona were really struggling already while he was playing there. I mean the last year he played for them for example. Messi was trying to take full responsibility for carrying the team but it wasn't helping them still. His performance was still great then though but he hasn't been like shining at PSG so far. He had serious problems on adapting to them in the first times but he is better these days. He is still not like the old Messi but it is normal as he is aging also.

I don't think Messi's era is over yet he can still play 2-3 more years but for his contribution to PSG, the quality of Lionel Messi is still not visible, but it's different from the Argentine national team where his contribution really gives positive results for the Tango Team, because we know that Messi is still under the shadow of Neymar and Mbappe so that it affects his performance at the club located in the city of Paris, perhaps his departure from Barcelona is inseparable from the financial crisis experienced by the Catalan club so that they can no longer afford to pay super expensive salaries.requested by Lionel Messi himself so that Barcelona decided to release him to PSG amid Barcelona's financial crisis

Looking at the current performance of Messi since joining PSG, I think he is still very strong and hopefully, he can still play up to 2 seasons or more but that's if he is not injured or affected due to old age. Messi's performance in PSG can not be compared with that of his national team because he plays a free role in the national team and no player is dragging balls or affecting his balls unlike in Paris where Neymar and Mbappe will always want to perform better or most times being in control of the ball in order to show their worth but I believe Messi will keep playing good football in till 4years to come.

I think people have only glimpsed the progress Real Madrid is making. Therefore, they do not really know how successful Real Madrid won 14 Champions League trophies and was crowned the king of Europe until the end of this season. If they were only talking about luck then that would not be true at all. Real Madrid's achievements are a benchmark for how capable Real Madrid is.

It's all because of the experience and mentality that Real Madrid is very familiar with in every competition, especially in the UCL. If you can judge Real Madrid's performance this season, they only play waiting, focus on defending and then make a deadly counter-attack.
and those tactics and strategies make Real Madrid look not a scary team this season, but Real Madrid is able to judge the opponent's game that allows him to beat him because of his tactics.
Real Madrid can beat the big teams because he knows what to do, all opponents of Real Madrid will have an attacking ambition to score goals and Real Madrid is strengthening defense and just waiting for the momentum. and for next season maybe they will change their game to be more attacking or something.

[naira]

Real Madrid has achieved a good record for itself with 14 championship titles and to a great extent, if they continue with proper players' transfers, the club will still retain the trophy 🏆 in the next season. For the main time let real Madrid enjoy their winning and also preparation for next season since that is the next step forward for all clubs.

What Real Madrid do is always have the precision in choosing players who are ready for the big games. And next season will definitely be a lot of player changes which they are trying to add to the scheme to keep it stable. Benzema certainly will not last more than one season, and even then if you look at his contract at Real Madrid which has been extended by one year until 2023, it may not be as productive as it is now. Madrid will prepare a striker so that he can be a qualified alternative.

Yah Real Madrid lifted up its 14th Champions league trophy and yes they deserve it. Just watched the recap of the match since could not watch it on time last May 29th. How many saves from Real Madrid goal keeper and that is the other reason for winning the final. Yes expected Liverpool in the 1st half to make goals as they had plenty of chances. They were really on fire to be frank but yes could not. The goal from Vini Jr was really awesome. His lively presence made it happen. Again Real Madrid proved themselves.

Some people think Real Madrid won the Champions League trophy because of luck, and think Liverpool deserved to win. In fact,
Real Madrid are  more mentally prepared to face the final. It must be admitted that Real Madrid's strength is that they have a winning
mentality. Even Real Madrid is strengthened by players who have won the Champions League trophy several times before, so Real Madrid
players have a winning mentality. No wonder before beating Liverpool in the final, Real Madrid previously managed to beat several strong teams.
So for me Real Madrid is much more deserving of winning the Champions League trophy. So it is not surprising that Real Madrid still relies
on several players who are over 30 years old, that's because Real Madrid realizes the importance of experienced players to have a winning mentality.

No club has come close to achieving the Real Madrid Champions League trophy, the 14 Champions League trophies that have been won by Real Madrid is a very extraordinary achievement, maybe next season Real Madrid will not make too many changes, the front line is still entrusted to the team. Banzema and Vinicius, because of the failure to land mbappe to Real Madrid, the position of the front lines has not changed, for now Real Madrid has only got one new ammunition in defense, Rudiger has made an agreement with Real Madrid and next season Rudiger will officially defend Real Madrid. .

I still think that Real Madrid has an equal chance. Although competition is getting tougher from various clubs that add new squads, Real Madrid is also almost considered to have no potential before entering the semifinals. However, Madrid went through all the obstacles that were tough enough to have to fight a club as big as PSG which was claimed to be the favorite club because it was filled with star players. In fact, there will be no effect if Madrid faces them. For next season, Madrid can still win the trophy again.

What happens is that we concentrate a lot on the physical aspects of the sport since this is easily visible, however the mental aspect is even more important, there are players which undoubtedly have great skills and talent, however when you put them in a situation of high pressure they are unable to endure it and they end up failing, while there are others which instead get even better during those difficult moments, Real Madrid showed the mentality of a champion by always being able to overcome the difficult circumstances they were in and eventually winning the championship.

Real Madrid efforts paid off last season in the champions league, adding one more to the already 13 champions league trophies, although facing the toughest teams like PSG, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool and still won the league is extremely remarkable. I don't think their front line is bad, infact the current front line would still be productive to them next season if the players maintain form. I also think Rudiger would make the team more fearsome
