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

[Republikcoin.com]

I can see a lot of Manchester City fans making comments on how the club is going to win the champion league but the funny thing is Liverpool to me stand more chance of winning than Manchester City.

We'll see who will actually win the Champions League this time because all the clubs that enter the Champions League this time are the best clubs and the luckiest and strongest will win this season.
So there is no problem if some fans defend the club they like to win, that's natural, but they also have to be willing when the club they like must lose and not win when the game is over.

there is still a long way to go to predict who will be the champion, currently all that remains are the best clubs so anything is still very possible to happen, Man City's performance is indeed very good this year but these other teams are also very consistent and have quality the same as Man City.

There's nothing wrong with that, because at least until now they still hold the top of the standings. Fans of any team would do the same when his team was at this point.
But they must not forget Liverpool, which is still putting a lot of pressure on Manchester City. I think they can claim the title after they beat Liverpool in this match.

Among the 8 teams that have made sure to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, of course they are all the best European teams, but from these 8 teams there are certainly strong candidates to win the Champions League title this season where Manchester City and Bayern Munich are indeed the favorites to win. won the title this season but we also must not underestimate a real Madrid and also Liverpool because both of them can give a surprise like what happened in the previous match where real Madrid succeeded in silencing PSG who performed so extraordinary

I can see a lot of Manchester City fans making comments on how the club is going to win the champion league but the funny thing is Liverpool to me stand more chance of winning than Manchester City.

I also strongly agree with your opinion, a strong candidate for champion this season is Liferpol, although many predict that Manchester City has a great opportunity to lift the champions league trophy, followed by Bayern Munich, but I am still optimistic that Liferpol will be able to lift the champions league trophy for the second time under coach jorgen klop, we'll see if our predictions are right.

Manchester city has many experienced players, Manchester city also has the best coach in the world, even though April is a very tiring month for Manchester city, but I am still optimistic that Manchester city is able to dismantle the ATM defense, even though ATM plays a parking bus game but I believe Manchester city able to break into the ATM goal, because Pepguardiola is the key to Manchester city's victory, because Pepguardiola already knows the weakness of ATMs, because Pepguardiola has long coached Barcelona in the Spanish league.

Atletico this season concedes more goals than ever before. And Manchester City will definitely be able to score such a defense, and most likely more than once. For me, City are the clear favorites in this pairing, but let's not forget that Atletico are a great club that were very good at defending, and if they manage to show better defense than they have in recent matches, then they will have a chance to compete with City with dignity.

Talking about mentality actually Real Madrid is better than Chelsea because last round when Real Madrid defeated PSG we know about how mentality of Real Madrid player there. Chelsea still not get heavy against team on Champion league except with Juventus on group stage,

Yep, this season, Chelsea still didn't face strong opponents like Real Madrid. Juventus can be said not a really strong team because their performance decreased so much after Ronaldo left. Considering the performance of Juventus players, they are experiencing a bad season right now. So, we simply can conclude Juventus isn't a really strong team. While Real Madrid has played against PSG which has many superstars on its squad. They are almost defeated by PSG, luckily Real Madrid has Benzema who can save real Madrid in the previous stage. If we consider this, the mentality of Real Madrid players is definitely more prepared and tested.

Agree with you Chelsea performance keep not really strong actually on domestic league have out from candidate for getting primer league, I think will be like last year where Chelsea not favorite on domestic league and failed getting trophy from Manchester City but have impressive performance on champion league and success defeated Manchester City on final, but have different situation right now when Chelsea have against with Real Madrid on quarter final, keep impressive performance on domestic league, Real Madrid as candidate for getting La Liga trophy and have with double winner in this season with Champion League and La Liga trphies.

Manchester City are favorite to win the Champions league this season, although there are so many teams that are competend to win the champions league. Liverpool are also among the teams that would lift the title if care is not taking. Manchester city deserve to lift the title this season after their 1-0 loss to Chelsea last season in the finals. Pep Guardiola wouldn't allow what happened last season to repeat itself. The players currently are in their best form, they will proved themselves when they will host Athletico Madrid at the Etihad Stadium. Let's see what Pep and city players got for us on Tuesday.

The probability of Chelsea winning against Real Madrid in my opinion is much better in the first leg. Chelsea are playing at home and that should be the reason why they will be favorites to win over Real Madrid.

I don't think Real Madrid are far superior to Chelsea this season. Real Madrid's defense is not good, their midfield is not as good as a few seasons ago and they only rely on Benzema as a goalscorer. You will probably know that there will be a tight guard for Benzema in that match if he is really available, and that man-marking strategy will get Real Madrid in trouble.

Vinicius is the second highest scorer in La Liga and Real Madrid have a large pool of players who can score a goal. But in general, Chelsea in the EPL has similar statistics to Real in La Liga - Chelsea has +38 in goals, and Real has + 34. Real has a 69% percentage of games won, and Chelsea has 60% - here Real have a serious advantage, but it is more likely indicates a lower average level of teams compared to the EPL. In general, I think it will be a fight of approximately equal opponents.

It is correct that Real Madrid has a large pool of players that can give them goals, this can be seen in the likes of Vinicius Jr and Benzema. While this is true for Real Madrid, Chelsea on the other hand has large pool of players that can stop goals, among them are; Coutoius, Rudiger, Thiago, Kante etc. This means that it will be easy and hard for Madrid to score, but if by peradventure Chelsea gets a goal first, Real Madrid might likely lose the match.

[kro55]

yes i agree with you
maybe Real Madrid have a lot of strikers but the thing to remember is that Chelsea has the best midfielder, Kante. Like last season's Champions League game, Kante was so instrumental in stopping the Real Madrid midfielder's play that Real Madrid couldn't create many chances, and they were eventually knocked out of the Champions League. I think this season will repeat itself like last season.

Kante was the main force behind Chelsea's outstanding performance in the previous season. He is a great midfielder. In every important match he has proved his mettle and helped the team win. If Kante plays well in the next match, then I see more chances for Chelsea to win. Real Madrid's performance depends a lot on Benzema. So if Chelsea's defenders can resist Benzema then the match will be under their control.

From the depth of the existing squad, Liverpool is indeed quite convincing for them to be able to win the champions league this season, but the mentality possessed by Manchester City and also Bayern Munich cannot be underestimated, apart from that, Madrid, which has a lot of experience in the Champions League, is worthy of counted as one of the candidates to also win the champions league this season.

I don't mind when you're Real Madrid's favorite to beat Chelsea, but you have to admit that it's not an easy task for Real Madrid especially because they depend so much on one player ^[Benzema]. I know Chelsea are not good enough in the Premier League but they are promising enough in the Champions League so far so you can't underestimate it. Even if Real Madrid make it to the semifinals then I think they will fail if the next opponent is a stronger team.

[Pokapoka124]

Atletico will do what Atletico Madrid always does,defend hard and try and do something on counter-attacks. Everyone knows how Simeone plays with Atletico and its no secret,Man City has such a powerfull attack that i think they will destroy maybe even Atletico. You cannot defend 10 years all the time honestly.

There is no doubt that Manchester City's attacking lineup is very strong. However, Atletico Madrid's defense is not weak. Atletico Madrid will want to score from the counterattack, while Manchester City will play attacking, so it will be bit easier for Atletico's players to score. Moreover, Manchester City has several important matches in a row against strong opponents. And so I doubt the players will be in their full form.

Manchester city has many experienced players, Manchester city also has the best coach in the world, even though April is a very tiring month for Manchester city, but I am still optimistic that Manchester city is able to dismantle the ATM defense, even though ATM plays a parking bus game but I believe Manchester city able to break into the ATM goal, because Pepguardiola is the key to Manchester city's victory, because Pepguardiola already knows the weakness of ATMs, because Pepguardiola has long coached Barcelona in the Spanish league.

The champion's league game between Manchester City and Atletico Madrid will definitely be the toughest tie of this stage maybe a little higher than Chelsea and Madrid. It will be a battle between football ideology and coaches tactical abilities. Certainly, we know both team plays a style of football that is opposing to each other. The strength and depth of this City side will be tested when Simeone set up his annoyingly defensive side but most fans will still believe City to pull this one through.

It is reported that Carlo Ancelotti has Covid 19 and it has been confirmed positive that he will miss the match against Celta Vigo but there is a possibility that he will also miss the match with Chelsea, that's what I heard today, I hope Carlo ancelotti can recover ahead of this important match..

It will be a big loss if it can't be recovered in the near future because there is no main coach at Real Madrid, on the other hand Benzema is very reliable like many people say but the match will be even more difficult for Real Madrid if this problem is still dis solved until he misses out his coach.

[SatoPrincess]

Chelsea may not meet up with the performance point that will give the good chances in the various league as the present club conditions have affected Chelsea negatively the Russian sanctions have stopped the club's from signing new players.

That problem is probably something that Chelsea needs to solve at the moment, although that doesn't mean Chelsea should be underestimated in every game because Chelsea can win unexpectedly despite being hit by problems that put them in a bad shape for now.
But you don't have to think it's down because until now Chelsea are already in the top 8 of the Champions League this season.

I would not treat Chelsea as a team that has problems, much less, the players they have have tremendous quality, and despite the problems they may have, one thing is what happens at the level of management, administration and all the problems that can be fixed through diplomacy and what they show on the pitch is another thing, Chelsea is one of the strongest teams that have ever existed and given the recent problems I don't think they will lower the level , this is not their style. I understand that when making a bet you have to take all these points into account, but you have to trust that the football they always show is very good.

Chelsea actually look like a potential winner of this season UEFA Champion's League because despite the odds against them, they are carrying on well as if nothing is really happening at the club. I will choose them ahead of Manchester City and Bayern Munich but of course Liverpool is another potential winner. I sincerely think the winner is between Chelsea and Liverpool. It will be quite surprising if Manchester City could win the Champion's league this season.

[jakdanyel]

Many people must be thinking about whether Chelsea can make it to the title once again. I also am a little curious about it actually but I don't want to believe that they can even eliminate Real Madrid. I don't see the same Chelsea now. I'm aware of the fact that Chelsea will be focusing on the Champions League more than the EPL now. But I don't see the same light in them this time. If they somehow manage to eliminate Real Madrid, then I might start to feel that again.

I won't be surprised if this two matches just turns out to be one sided games and boring. Then the match which we thought will be one sided like the Liverpool and Benfica or Bayern Munich vs Villarreal because the tough matches. Already we know the game plans of this other matches not been talked about that much. The supposedly big teams will be attacking while the smaller ones will defend and hope on counter attaching to get the goals. The games might get interesting if the underdog scores first then the big teams try all they have to equalized.

I can't wait for the champions league to begin in few days time it's been long I watched good football. I don't understand what's happening in the international games as I didn't have much fun watching the African qualifiers and sadly my nation isn't going to the world Cup. Can't just wait on Chelsea to resume and continue on their form. A 2-0 scorelines won't be bad for the first leg.

You are right Chelsea is no longer as strong a team as they were last season. But is the Real Madrid team too strong? We know their squad players are experienced. Their coach is experienced. But they still rely on Benzema to win the match. The Chelsea team may have been a bit weak. But the situation in Real Madrid is not good. Real Madrid will not be able to win against Chelsea without Benzema scoring a goal.

[dataispower]

The loss of Carlos Ancellotti to Covid won't stop the Real Madrid players from performing at their best on Saturday.
They seems to b in a good mood after the disastrous loss to Barcelona prior to the international duty calls.
They play away against Celta Vigo, possible outcome should be a win or draw for the Los blancos angel's.

To be honest, I think that Real Madrid are showing a way better performance than last season. It is the truth that Benzema makes the biggest contribution to the team now. He is their most scorer now and this could be one of his greatest seasons for certain. However, we shouldn't overlook Real Madrid's great achievement against PSG too. They lost the first leg by 1-0 and were left 1-0 behind by PSG in the second leg too. But they still made a great comeback and advanced to this round. I expect them to have a strong performance again.
