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

Giroud has been underrated throughout his whole career. He's slow, doesn't go into unnecessary dribbles so his game often goes unnoticed. He's really smart in his passing play and positioning and is a great holder of the ball, maybe he's not good enough to be the main threat in the best teams but is definitely a guy that's great to have as an attacking option.

He's got over 100 caps for France and look at their team - full of stars. That has to mean something as well.

Giroud is one of the best Target man in the history of football and a clinical finisher his is one of the most underrated rather striker of all time. He has proven himself at both international and club level  it would be a great loss if Chelsea lost him to another club because he wants to play just like every other players

although Giroud is the "Man of the Match" Chelsea is still unstable and that doesn't prove anything.  I hope Giroud Giroud wasn't just lucky yesterday, I hope he can maintain his form in the premier league like when he made 4 goals on Sevilla.  let's keep an eye on what more surprises will appear in the next round..

But you can't really expect anything more out of him despite the spurts of brilliance.  I mean he's no Ibra.  But yeah...  brilliant performace.  Score his goals using all his tools.  Left foot, right foot and head.

I feel he had his day and made this match really entertaining now the big question is that how he will perform in upcoming matches especially in playoff. If he will get succeed to keep maintain his form than definitely Chelsea will create big trouble there but there are some strong clubs already made their place there so we can expect big fun and entertainment from Chelsea's matches finger crossed for them.

It proves a lot for someone who scored 3 goals during the international break and scored 4 goals against one of the exciting club in Europe SEVILA in a critical champions league game. He has been on the bench all this while and that was his first start for the season. The competition between Chelsea players is yielding good results being 3rd on the EPL with 22 goals scored and 9 conceded, toping the ucl table with 12 points with the lowest goal conceded (1)

Real Madrid have difficult matches ahead - Sevilla, Borussia and Atletico Madrid. The team is not ready to physically play all three matches. There are many injured players. Real needs to defeat Borussia in order not to depend on the result of the Shakhtar vs Inter match. This is a rather difficult task at the moment ...

The task is difficult, but doable for Real Madrid. The team has character and there is Zidane who knows how to set players up for important matches. I suppose that Real Madrid can sacrifice other matches in order to save energy for the match with Borussia. For Real Madrid, the Champions League will always prioritize other tournaments and matches.

Same hard is for Inter and Antonio Conte..did not do well, there is discontent on the part of all - fans, team, company,..

it is not replaced because there is no money for another big/great coach

you understand that the inter is in bad shape like Real.. not like.. worst

It seems everybody loves talking about chelsea recently.
They have outstanding performance especially after the goalkeepee arrived.
Could be a different story if it was still kepa there lol
Will they straight to win the champions league this season?
The favorites like real madrid , barcelona and psg looks really struggle.
There is juventus and the strongest contender bayern munich , these the only two obstacle with consistency that hold chelsea to win the champions league this season i have to say.

Actually Inter came from nowhere and I believe they can win vs Shakhtar and proceeds to the next stage. The problem is Real Madrid facing M'Gladbach which has mostly positive results while Madrid is struggling...
Meanwhile, next round is decisive for most groups, we will see

All there is still a chance for the team, it's just that they have to try to win at the end of the determination to advance in the next phase, Madrid have great pressure which must win to qualify against Gladbach if what is said is partially positive then that's an opportunity for real Madrid.
Shaktar able to beat Madrid will Inter Milan be able to beat him? it is difficult for him because the two are fighting over each other's position.

Imo, I don't see Chelsea as a strong contender to win the champions league this season, yes I know they are in good form, but I doubt they'll have the consistency to carry this form all the way to the title, Lampard is doing a good job at Stamford bridge, but it'll take him a bit more time imo if he's to deliver Europe's clubs biggest title for Chelsea. The favorites for me remains Bayern Munich and Manchester City, and I hope pep can finally make City CL champions.

I also believe Inter are going to win and go through, it's the Madrid's game that I cannot call for now, I'm sure Zidane must be sweating from the pressure right now, his players have to give their all, but sometimes it's usually not enough to guarantee a victory.

Giroud is a great player but people are forgetting football is a team sport and no matter how great you are, if your team sucks you can't really make a huge change, not in the long run at least. Sure you could have a firey game and bring your team a win that they normally wouldn't get, but that is just few games a season, but if the team is good all by itself and you add on top of that, you are likely to be valued a lot more.

Giroud is a marvelous player, he is definitely one of the best out there when he is on form, but he needs all of his teammates to play awesome for him to actually matter. That goes for superstars like Messi and Ronaldo and others too, if the team plays well enough, they bring the team to another level, if the team sucks, they are just one person out of eleven and can't do much.

Yeah, today PSG can keep 3 points from MU and this results makes them on the top of table. I think PSG now more safe to go to the next round since they are showing their consistant performance. For MU, I can't predict them. But in paper, they just need to keep 1 points to qualified to the next round, so maybe easy for them to get it.

A little funny about this result, I think MU will win. Winning at the Parc des Princes losing at home, it seemed that Old Traffod was not on friendly terms that day. They make it difficult for themselves to escape the group phase. Against Leipzig in the decisive match it looks easy, MU has won 5-0 at home. That is not a benchmark, next week MU must going to Red Bull Arena Leipzig, MU must be careful that PSG lost 1-0 in Leipzig, this happened in the 3rd match of the group phase.

I'm glad that Lazio managed to keep up with the opponent, during the match against Borussia. They had difficulties to regain possession of the ball in some moments, but they had been able not to be defeated. Next week they are expected to win easily against Club Brugge. I hope so.

I don’t think you need to worry, Lazio have enough quality to qualify for the round of 16. I think they only jeed a draw in the last game to qualify as runners up to Dortmund & secure qualification for the next round.

To be honest I never thought Chelsea can win big and Sevilla has a bad performance on the home stadium like that. Sevilla again shown they are only the King in Europa League.

In fact, Lampard and his students did good performance with the counter attack when must play in the home stadium of Sevilla. Especially, Giroud had extremely impressive performance with Poker. I see when he switched to play for Chelsea, his playstyle is much softer than before.  He was not only play well with head but also he uses his legs very well. Congratulate the first position for Chelsea.

Giroud 8', 54', 74', 83' (p)

Chelsea has a very strong team this season with the additions of Havertz and Werner making it superb.
Giroud scored 3 perfect goals and he showed that he is a classy striker (in my opinion a bit of underrated during his football career). Sevilla seemed unable to win the game as their defense was out of position every time Olivier was moving in order to get the ball.

I suppose if Manchester united take their chances then it will be a very easy win at liezpig, poor Martial form, unlucky Cavani and poor officiating led to psg loss, one thing is, the performance is good. If psg plays that Turkish team with the way they played against united then It won't be an easy tie.

It seems that PSG will definitely win against Basaksehir, PSG's first match to get 3 points at Basaksehir's home even though that cannot be used as a benchmark but still, PSG's ability with the squad it has and the advantages of playing at home will certainly be easy to win the match. Unlike MU, Leipzig is not a weak team because even in the last few seasons Leipzig has been able to maintain its dominance so that the opportunity to beat MU is still possible. But Leipzig still have a tough task because tomorrow or before the match against Manchester United, Leipzig will play against Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga and that is also not easy and could be a pressure for Leipzig itself.

The match in Group H, will be very interesting.

Not only in Group H, but the last matches in other groups are also interesting to watch, except group C, E, & G. We still need to wait for the result of the last matches to know which teams as the winner and as the runner up. I bet all the teams will play all out to get 3 points and qualify for the next stage. However, those teams which play in their homes for the last match will take a little advantage. Let's see which team will qualify! 


I bet Real Madrid will get 3 points in the last match!

ManUnited and Leipzig have to fight over each other because their points are the same and the week to come will be the decisive match, therefore both have pressure because they have to be able to win until the final match
It's playing away for ManUnited and usually away is much better to have played on its own before, I also believe in the Manchester squad that is going to go all-out and this will make for a more interesting match for us to see.
Not only that, in Group B there are still many teams that have a chance.
