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

[Shasha80]

After Madrid lost I chose City to win. I only see Chelsea in the final FA and EPL is really sad. They lost and failed to win for the FA cup. I thought they would be mentally affected a little bit, so I asked a friend who bet on Chelsea if they still believe Chelsea will win? Although I believe Tuchel has the effective play he has worked on in the previous few games, they don't play the ball much but can win. I think Tuchel's upcoming game will play like that.

Manchester City will be very unstoppable in the final match later.

I firmly believe Sergio Aguero will be played in that match and it will be his last game with Manchester City before moving to Barcelona.

FYI, Sergio Aguero officially moves to Barcelona next season.

Manchester City will not give up the chance to become champions after reaching the final, and I'm sure Manchester City players also really want
to win the Champions League. Especially Aguero will give his best performance as a farewell gift for Man City fans, because Aguero decided to
move to Barcelona next season. Although I am very optimistic that Man City will win the match against Chelsea, but Chelsea is not a weak team,
and managed to beat Man City in the last meeting in the Premier League. So Manchester City have to be careful of Chelsea's very fast counter-attacks.

I doubt Aguero will be in the starting eleven in the final match this Saturday, he might join at the end of the game as a honor for his services with City OR less likely might play the first half only.
Guardiola is taking this match very seriously, a war that should be won by his fighters and he will pick the best and most ready ones.

It's going to be interesting Champions League final match and I would give a slight advantage to Manchester City but not like bookmakers suggest.
Chelsea managed to win 1:2 recently and they also beat Chelsea in FA cup, so I am giving both teams 50-50 chances, and small details and tactics will decide who will win.
Chelsea can defend very good and I would not be surprised to see draw, extra time and penalties.
I don't expect to see many goals in this match but good thing is that we Estadio do Dragao will have 16500 supporters.

I'm giving 60 to 40 chances to be honest. Because I still see City as a little more favourite than Chelsea in the final game. Yeah, maybe Chelsea beat them twice this season. But this is the Champions League we're talking about. City will also be much more concentrated on the game for the title. They are much more effective on offense that's for sure. Because Chelsea have players like Havertz and Werner as strikers. And they are not good enough this season I'm afraid. I think Chelsea will try to wear City players out and blindside them.

Please don't say that Kepa is better than Edouard Mendy  

Everything Can Happen On The Field, But 95% Sure Manchester City Will Be The Winner.

The Blues Is Loser Everytime

Kepa was once the best, maybe all there is a time to get down and look bad. Likewise Mendy I think he will have a period like Kepa.

It looks like you are a Manchester City fan. Indeed, if you look at the Manchester City aspect of play, it looks better. But remember Tuchel made Chelsea more effective. He was able to win even though he didn't control the match. City should be wary of Chelsea's counterattack. We wait 4 days to see the results.

I hope that's what will happen in the final in the next few days. I think the preparation for the final have been well done by both team and me with Manchester City there. As for Aguero, I think he will be played by Guardiola too, but not for full time. He will only be played a few minute before the match end because so far Guardiola has rarely used his service. I will welcome him to Barcelona next season.

Yes i think as well the Chelsea also has a big chance in this final from counter attacks. They got some really good players with huge speed to do that.
Man city finally made it to the final with all the money they invested into their team but this will be hard to them because Chelsea already beated them last time for me this is an equal game can go either way

Yes, Sergio Aguero is rarely Pep Guardiola's top choice this season, maybe that's also the reason he wants to move to another team that can use his services regularly.

I Just Seen News That Says Sergio Aguero Specifically Hopes To Play Full-Time In His Last Game. Just as you said, Sergio will play in the match, but not for Full-Time.

Chelsea failed in Champions League final and it takes a several seasons in the semi-final rounds before the season they won first Champions League. Chelsea became the biggest and most competitive clubs in Champions League before that season. Manchester City have never built up a good position like Chelsea.

They can not play well and make domination in Champions League like Chelsea. I think Manchester City and PSG are the same, they will not to repeat their success in last 2 seasons in a few more ones. When they feel they are giants in Champions League, they will win it. Now they are not too much confident with what they can achieve.

Aguero is a legend in Manchester City and if he can score a goal in the final and win the trophy, it will be a very happy ending for him in the club. Aguero helped Manchester City won their first Premier League with late goal from the key pass of Balotelli.

Will it be repeated in Champions League final? One more late goal from Augero and the first Champions League for Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola will give Sergio Aguero playing minutes in the UCL final as a tribute to the legend, Sergio Aguero was an important figure when he brought The Citizens to their first title in the Premier League. Currently Manchester City only leaves Sergio Aguero as the only player who has ever participated in The Citizens success in winning its first English Premier League title. If The Citizens can win UCL this year it will be a very beautiful farewell for the legend.

If UEFA decides to eliminate Real, Barcelona and Juventus from the competition, they will be replaced by Real Sociedad, Betis and Napoli.

Champions League without the champions, without its best teams will have another taste.. Those 3 clubs also condemned UEFA and brought it in Madrid's courts for abusing its position. I think everything will end with a simple fine without having any team kicked from any competition.

Personally, I don't think a court in Madrid has jurisdiction over UEFA, probably just a Swiss court.
It seems to me, judging by the statements of the leading people in UEFA, that there is a strong possibility of drastic punishment for Real, Barcelona and Juve, as examples for other clubs in the future.
There is a big stake in the game, and whoever wins this fight will still lead the game in the future.

Can't wait for the final really, I'm all set with 4 good friends we'll be having a poker party before the game and  then we'll eat some nice thai food and watch the match. We have 4 different bets for the game (four different correct scores) and who gets closer to the final result chooses who's gonna pay dinner for all.
I picked 2-1 for Man City

I know this isn't the place for Conference League discussion but since someone brought it up today I saw the prize money structure. More money for Europa teams (less prize pool but less teams also so bigger cut) and then now millions also for Conference group winners. Total can be 9 milllon euros for Conference League same as Europa. Maybe even we will see more teams fight to qualify for Champions League and don't mind to drop to Europa or Conference?

Oh and welcome Villareal:)

It is amazing for villarreal's journey this season, even though in the laliga standings they are in seventh place, but Viillarreal, who won the 2020/21 Europa League, immediately got the right to appear in the main round of the Champions League next season.
In other words, Villarreal immediately moved up to two classes, from what was supposed to take part in the qualifying play-off round of UEFA's third tier competition, the UEFA Conference League, to go straight to the Champions League, and with the managed to get the trophy european league, this certainly strengthens Unai Emery as one of the European league specialist coaches, and of course it's worth looking forward to how far Villarreal's journey will go next season in the Champions League.

Same here.  Chelsea might be getting one in on the counter during the first half and City getting the other two at the second half for the win.  I could also see more than 3.5 corners for each team, I could see Jorginho getting a booking.  Try using all that info at sportsbet.io’s bet builder.  You get around 21 odds.

It's a really fun bet that I often do with friends when there is a final, and my friends and I start betting an hour before the game starts and the shuffling system and if the score is right he's the lucky one and wins the bet.
I'm also looking forward to the Chelsea vs Man City final which I will watch with my friends, and 50% of the winning stake will go to those who need it and 25% to the winners and the rest to have fun together.
I wish I was a winner, and bets like this are often done with friends when there is a final and no one chooses the team because of the shuffling system and it's a lot of fun.

Villarreal has finished a season of extraordinary. Although they are inactive in La Liga, they are performing well in the Europa League. Defeating a strong opponent like Manchester United is not an easy task. Hopefully Villarreal will qualify to play in the Champions League and improve and strengthen themselves next season.

Chelsea might be getting one in on the counter during the first half and City getting the other two at the second half for the win. 

The key that must be taken is to turn off Kante. In the Tuchel era, Kante's role became irreplaceable. City must be able to escort him so as not to move freely. Guardiola must be vigilant, even though I myself won the city, this match could be like the European League final.
City must understand that Chelsea's counter-attack is very effective at the end of the season. Chelsea can win without holding a lot of the ball.

[joker_josue]

If the game is extremely balanced, over the 90 minutes. And then in extra time, there are also no goals.
Who do you think wins on penalties?

Man City has one of the best goalkeepers in the world, will it be an advantage in this scenario?

Apart from Villarreal's victory over Manchester United on penalties, they deserved to be champions because of their cohesiveness in play and discipline, and besides that Villarreal won 1-0 over Manchestar United thanks to Gerard Moreno in the 29th minute even though it ended 1-1 and ended on penalties.
and to welcome the Champions League next season it looks like Villarreal will strengthen the team and fix its shortcomings by Unai Emery who led Villarreal to win the European League this season.
