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

[uneps]

Chelsea's goalkeeper Mendy was really awesome in the first half. He had 2 critical saves and didn't let Benzema score a goal. As long as he keeps up the good work, it seems like Real Madrid's job will be very hard. Especially if Chelsea manage to score the 2nd one, I think Chelsea will not lose their advantage after that.

true, the performance shown by Mendy was truly extraordinary and of course he managed to repay the coach's trust that made him the number 1 goalkeeper in Chelsea today to replace Kepa (the most expensive goalkeeper in the world ) who often makes silly things the  under chelsea crossbar, I think if Mendy can continue to maintain his performance, of course he will be the next Peter Cech who is indeed the best goalkeeper ever in chelsea klub.

When Mendy first came to the club and had his first appearances, I thought that he was not good enough to be Chelsea's main goalkeeper. But after some time passed, he started getting better and better every day. And in this game, he was wonderful. I hope that he can go on like this and be an important part of the team.

everyone would not think that Mendy would play this well considering he is one of the young players
but who would have thought he was able to shift the main position to arrizabalaga and even he was able to surpass the record of the Chelsea legend goalkeeper Peter Cech
with 13 clean sheets and he even has a chance to grab the doubel winner this season considering the team has reached the final in 2 different competitions

The Chelsea team have done what most thought was impossible, that is go past Real Madrid to the finals. It is an all English team finals. They have to do strongly against Manchester City who are a fire team with a very experienced coach.

Big congratulations to the Chelsea side.

i don't know about that, a lot people had doubts that Chelsea can go through and eliminate Real madrid, i mean let's be honest, Real madrid are not the same anymore, and Chelsea is not that small of a team, they beat Man city not a longtime ago in the FA cup, and i've seen a lot of people talking about Chelsea's chances to qualify, and they were expecting them to do that especially after the 1-1 draw in madrid.

Manchester City vs Chelsea ODDs

The bookmaker odds suggested otherwise however,,, Chelsea were at the highest 2x and mainly 1.8x as I could see,,, while Real Madrid was both the legs the underdogs, because everyone knew they were full of injuries. The only worry was whether Chelsea would replicate the efforts of the first leg, which of course turned out to be even better:) Hope they do same for final.

In the final it will be more complicated. Man City is very strong, and proof of that is the punctual advance they have in PL.
Of course they will fight, but I think it will be very difficult to overtake Man City.

This year's champions league final promises to be an interesting one. Two of England's biggest clubs are facing off in the final. Manchester city have dominated the English premier league this season and they have proved to the formidable team. Pep has once again proved himself as a tactical mastermind. Chelsea on the other hand shocked a lot of people by winning Real Madrid and emerging as finalist. Whichever side wins I'm just glad the UCL is coming to England

The English clubs did very powerful this season, they are one of the most improved league this season with outstanding results, Manchester United score line against Roma was incredible with high number of goals, Chelsea was regarded as the club that destroy the history of Real Madrid, the Blancos chance to play at semifinal automatically qualifies them of winning UEFA, I think the history was damaged.

PSG's elimination was one of the least expected in the UCL, a lot of us really thought fir them to have eliminated Bayern Munich, they were up to create there own wave and maybe bring the UCL to France for the first time but, Manchester City were very prepared not to let this happen. Gaurdiola was really not merciful in the second leg of the semi finals one beat. You can imagine him making substitute for elite players at the die minute of the match despite winning with 2 goals to nothing already.

Di Maria's red card was the worst thing that happened to that game. It was very unnecessary what he did, to have reached the way he did knowing fully were that he was being lured and tempted to make a mistake and he did. Played right into Fernandihno's plan and got booked. Very disappointing UCL for Neymar and Mbappe and I think Pochettino's team tactics was poor.

...that they would bring the CL title to France for the first time?
I think you made a mistake because a French club has already won the CL in the first season of that competition in 1992/93.
Marseille then beat Milan 1-0 in the final.
As for the rest, PSG lost due to a very bad defense, and because of the stupid and naive goals Manchester scored in Paris.

Well , yes and no. I mean , sure for a football fan this final is something that we did not ask for it but we kinda deserve it. Who could've produce more show and goals than City and Chelsea right now ? PSG fought 2 big games before facing City so their "gasoline" was on end and Real Madrid simply have no team to fight for UCL as much as we don't like it about Real.

I personally can't wait to see the finals and I do hope both teams will produce high class football and deliver lots of goals.

Yes, that's normal because Manchester City are the favorites to win this is not a first for both teams in the local league Man City won more matches against Chelsea
It's just that this is in a different situation things can happen even unexpectedly. For the bet I will go with Man City because I think they want to get 2 trophies at once EPL and UCL.

I really like Man City winning this championship but this Championship League is very intriguing if whose team going to become champion, Man City can not underestimate Chelsea even though Real Madrid is not in great shape if they really want the championship Man City should give their best in dealing with Chelsea, and if you look at stake.com's odd Man City had a good edge for analysis and they are the favorite in becoming champions.

Manchester City has been from the beginning the team that is superior to embrace the UCL title this season
but they also have to remain vigilant in facing Chelsea in the UCL final this season considering they were beaten by Chelsea in the FA Cup semifinals a few weeks ago
what's more, Chelsea is in its best performance
post under the tutelage of thomas tuchel
It is not impossible if Chelsea can surprise the Manchester Blue team

^  Depending on who Pep plays for the league match vs Chelsea this Sunday, it could be a prelude to the UCL final imo. 

And in hindsight and after doing some reading about Real, it’s amazing to see Zidane reach the semi finals with that ailing Real side.  That squad def over performed and should’ve been out of the tourney as early as the KO stages.

The Manchester City team is much stronger than Chelsea. But Chelsea occasionally became irresistible. Chelsea beat Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup. Chelsea lost 3-1 to Manchester City in their previous match in the Premier League. So it is still difficult to predict which team will win the Champions League title.

The FA Cup is not the ideal competition for making comparisons. There are many surprises in the FA Cup, every year small teams beat big teams. It is a very common thing.

But, tomorrow there will be a Man City vs Chelsea. It will be an anticipated UCL final, which will allow you to see what each team will be capable of. Even so, I think that the teams will not give everything in this match. They will not want to reveal strategies for the UCL final.

It will be a favorite of each other's fans I know both teams have a lot of fans around the world so when they meet in the Istanbul Champions League final there will be a lot of bets going on as big as they will do because in the belief that Manchester City and Chelsea have more power and more interesting game.

I will just wait for the game and I will see some predictive analysis because this is the first final for Manchester, of course it will be very different when the Final later.

PSG and Chelsea, this is the best I could imagine ... I would very much like to see these teams in the final someday ...

For me this wasnt the ideal final. Bayern vs City or vs PSG is ideal.
Quarter finals between bayern and psg was such a big and good match. The best one i watched in couple of years

The problem is that, in a sense, for me personally, the Champions League has become the Premier League ... I assumed that Manchester could face Chelsea in the final, but I did not think that Real Madrid would lose to Chelsea so easily.

If you look at the head to head of the two teams, it looks like it will be quite an exciting match to watch because in several meetings between Celsea and Manchester City the two teams recorded fairly balanced results, so it is certain that the final will be tight and also tough, this season's final champion league is a reminder we are in the champions league final which occurred in 2008 and 2019, at which time the two finalists came from the english league and of course this is a symbol if the current premier league is still the best league in the world, and the two teams will certainly give their all to be able to win the trophy because even City can make history if they succeed in winning the Champions League for the first time, as well as Chelsea, of course they will try to get the Champions League trophy for the second time.
