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

[babo]

Anyway I'm so happy with the fail of Inter you have no idea even if now they can be more focused in the Seria A... but if they fail to win this week it can be the start of their end.

Their luck is bad, that's why they played so badly in the Champions League.  I also think their main goal is Serie A. They are doing great in Serie A. They are in second place in the points table. They have been eliminated from the Champions League. I hope they do well in Serie A.

it's not luck or bad luck, everyone has that
bad luck can happen in a game

but not in a season .. I'm sorry to be tough, but Antonio Conte is not capable as a coach
and all inter company need to grow, they are like children

team and players is ok

I am surprised of Inter, in last games they looked quite well and I was sure they should win Shakhtar Donetsk  in Milan !
Anyway, we have last 16 and we will have at least one big game, as Barcelona FC is unseeded .
(Unless Borussia will met them)

Inter Milan are crying for not getting into the European league after the draw in the last game with Sakhtar this nightmare where they didn't reach the last 16 oh what a disappointment.

Barcelona's performance is bad I am not so sure that it will be able to defend their position later but for sure with this beat at 16, hopefully we will meet a team that is able to beat it.

Real Madrid is strong again after beating Gladbach, this is great Zidane is able to do.

Barcelona really blew chances, securing the top spot would have been really favorable, but as it stand there is no easy potential opponent for them, and at the best they face Borrusia Dortmund ? or  Chelsea... other than those, it's Bayern, Liverpool, PSG or Manchester City... Although, I still believe a lot could still change about the teams chemistry and performance as the knockout stages is still a few months away.

Of all the named teams, Barcelona can only face Bayern Munich, and Barcelona can cope with others, but no one can say what will happen in a couple of months. The team may raise the level of play or, on the contrary, weaken even more.

As expected, Real Madrid won at home in the last match. Now, Real Madrid is at the top of Group B standing and goes to the next stage. For people who expect Real Madrid to be defeated and eliminated in the group stage, you are exactly wrong. As a Madrid fan, I know very well about the capacity of Real Madrid and Zinedine Zidane. What I said before, becomes true today. Good job Real Madrid!!

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

It's not wrong to wait for the match, two goals from Benzema make me smile widely. Many people already doubt that Madrid can qualify for the knockout stages. The return of Ramos gives Madrid confidence, they did well last night. Guessing the opponent in the next phase, when viewed from the regulations, are Porto, Atalanta, Lazio and RB Leipzig. Meanwhile, the draw for the next round will be held next Monday.

Perhaps Barcelona will get better over the new year and on, but if their recent form/performance is ever to be considered, none of those potential opponents can I boldly say Barcelona would cope against, despite the fact that I'm a die hard fan, it's just the honest truth, a team that struggled against the likes of Cadiz and Alaves ?? Not the Barcelona I'm used to.

After loss from Juventus last match on champion league Barcelona have pass to knock out stage as runner up and have big problem will play with big team like Chelsea, Bayern and Liverpool after third team success on the first standing fixtures each group, I think will bad moment if faced with Liverpool or Bayern because Barcelona always loss with big score. So which one team become fight for Barcelona in next stage of champion league during performance Barcelona still down right now, will next week they can play well and defeat Levante to give good result for Barcelona fans.

Draw for round of 16 is Monday, I am always excited at this stage as it seems to be the time when the competition really hots up. There are sure to be some blockbuster match ups in this round.

The draw is always a lot of fun and exciting. Perhaps even more exciting and fun than the matches themselves. You have to be lucky with that draw and have a lesser opponent.
If you loot well, you can go far. Do we get special rules again or can everyone be drawn against each other?

The final results came not much different from the last years. Just the one that would be missed is Manchester city otherwise almost all of the teams from last years UEFA champions league have qualified for the knockout stage. But the results could be a bit different depending upon how the draw comes in. Liverpool, Chelsea, PSG and Munich do probably be favorite of this season.

PSG has had a very strong team for years. Perhaps with the best players in the world. Last year they were close to the title in the final, but I think Bayern is normally just one level higher.
They can all win. There is no team that is really far above the rest.

Yesterday on sky sport italy we were discussing the draws of the champions league. It had been several years that in the A group of the first classified, there were no 8 top teams. in past years there were always some less strong teams, while now they are all top teams, it will not be easy for Lazio and Atalanta who finished second and therefore will find one of these teams

G1  Bayern (GER), Chelsea (ENG), Dortmund (GER), Juventus (ITA), Liverpool (ENG), Manchester City (ENG), Paris (FRA), Real Madrid (ESP)

G2 Atalanta (ITA), Atlético (ESP), Barcellona (ESP), Lazio (ITA), Leipzig (GER), Mönchengladbach (GER), Porto (POR), Sevilla (ESP)

You are absolutely right.

Atalanta and Lazio will find 2 big for sure. If they are lucky (?) the best option for them should be Dortmund.

Juventus can find 5 teams, the one to avoid is Manchester City.

I'm not sure PSG can repeat their run to the UEFA Champions League final this season. Despite the presence of players like Neymar and Mbappe, each time they face opponents who look better as a team, rather than a set of stars. In my opinion, the current Juventus, Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Atletico look more complete as a team. Although Bayern are unlikely to be able to repeat their previous success and do not look so powerful yet, there is still time to restore their condition in six months.

PSG has a problem not in the players, but in the coach. A strong coach who can change the tactics of the game depending on the opponent. PSG doesn't have this from the very beginning. If they were given Guardiola or Klopp as their coaches, they might be able to win the Champions League.

Have opportunity for PSG to get new player on window transfer and fix all their problem during phase group where PSG get two loss from Manchester United and leipzig, maybe PSG need new forward to support Mbappe and Neymar after not have minute and experience by Mouise Keane, Maybe PSG have priority why the failed get champion trophy last season after loss from Bayern Munich but last champion season not have home and away match and now looks different back to usually have home and away, so many teams still have the same chance to get better from last season and Real Madrid still my favorite team to get back champion trphy.

I am of the opinion that a good coach would be ideal for PSG too. But in this case I don't think it's just the coach's fault. We have several mistakes of theirs that are different from the decision of a single person. Just consider that the possession of the ball was more theirs in the last match. They made fewer attempts than the opponents and they also made more mistakes.

Big match again for Barcelona faced with Paris Saint Germain and reunion for Neymar could this meeting give and bring positive result for Paris Saint Germain, we still remember woe Barcelona comeback with 5-0 margin goal afet first leg on Paris Stadium they loss, now they meet again as Barcelona playing for the first leg, look easy for Real Madrid pkaying with Atlanta and hope Madrid could give good memorize again and get collection for UEFA champion league trophy after two season miss to get champion. Bayern look get easy fight and have potential  to keep their trophy again, just different from last season will have first and second leg right now.

What are YOUR favorites to qualify to the quarterfinals?

Still some weeks to go until these matches take place, so lots of things can change and will change I agree with ManCity, Bayern, Juve, PSG, Real.

I would give the edge to Dortmund with a then new coach against Sevilla. Atletico vs Chelsea looks very 50/50, but for me this would be Chelsea, if I had to pick one side. And then Liverpool is surely fav, but here I can imagine Leipzig having the upper hand in the end. They can be a pain in the ass to play against and Liverpool isn't super convincing until now, despite Kloppo knowing the germans very well, which is an advantage.

I have a couple of differences to you but agree with most buddy. I’m not happy with my team atm, we have so many injuries, I’ve never seen anything like it before. Half the team is out injured. These games are played in Feb & March so I think we will have some players fit then so we should get to the 1/4 final.
