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

[maju69]

From this forum alone we can see that some users have their own favorite teams including myself, I favor Madrid in 1st place and Liverpool in 2nd place
Let alone guessing the champion even for the team that goes to the final we can guess wrong

Nowadays, almost every match is difficult to predict who will win and I personally don't even think that Bayern Munich will have to lose to Villarreal in the Champions League.
So this is very natural and commonplace because whoever is competing at this time it is almost difficult to predict who will win and stay in the League.

It's really a very difficult match for us to know who will win, especially the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match, because both have the same chance to win. Meanwhile, for the Liverpool vs Villarreal match, I think many people will predict Liverpool will come out victorious, so if you look at the strength of these two teams, it should work that way unless Villarreal can give something surprising like when they got rid of Bayern Munich.

To be honest I'm a little disappointed that Bayern went out first, because it would be much more interesting if Liverpool faced Bayern. I don't
mean to underestimate Villarreal, but we know the quality of Bayern's players is better than Villarreal. But there will always be surprises
in the world of football, and Villarreal can surprise football fans around the world. Now Villarreal have made it to the semifinals of the Champions
League and that is a very good achievement for a team like Villarreal.

If they have gone that far, Villarreal is just one step away from entering the final, it is not even impossible to become champions too.
Then Villarreal will be more motivated to show their best performance when dealing with Liverpool. Sometimes a high fighting spirit
can give a surprise by defeating a stronger team. So Liverpool must be careful when facing Villarreal, even though it is clear Liverpool
are the favorite team. That's why  the Champions League semi-final match is very difficult to predict. Not only is the Real Madrid vs Man City
game unpredictable, even the Liverpool vs Villarreal match will be difficult to predict and there might be another surprise from Villarreal.

Villarreal have been a very surprising team in the Champions League this season, because they were able to get rid of a team like Bayern Munich who from the start they were favorites in this Champions League title. But who would have thought that they would be eliminated by a team that was not seeded at all. I don't see any luck for Villarreal, because they can hold Bayern Munich two legs at a time, so I think their strategy is working well.

Each team in the semi-finals must treat as strong. No team is weak here. We thought Bayern Munich were much stronger than Villarreal. But Bayern Munich has been defeated. Even in the semi-finals, Liverpool is stronger than Villarreal. However, we cannot say for sure that Liverpool will reach the final. They must play well. If their match strategy is weak, Liverpool will not be able to win against Villarreal.

I deeply feel this season UEFA Champion's League trophy has Manchester City name written over it already, playing against Atletico Madrid was pretty much difficult yet they made it. Manchester City will beat Real Madrid and Liverpool or Villarreal in the final. RWAL Madrid will be hoping Benzema will continue with the incredible form he has been this season but City is up to the task. it’s finally Manchester City's year.

I also agree that this is the year that Man City wins the champions league finally. They werent able to even come close to the final but now they have an amazing chance. The only thing that can go the other way is if Benzema does something crazy again and knocks out City

It was seen like this last year, but Chelsea had won the cup. This year, Liverpool will probably be in the final.  Manchester City will have to beat Liverpool if they reach the final. Likewise, a defeat would be even more upsetting for Pep Guardiola. Frankly, my thought for the final is that there will be a Manchester City-Liverpool match. Let's see together, will Karim Benzema and Real Madrid eliminate Manchester City?

Face with bigger team from 16 round begin with defeated Juventus until on quarter final eliminated Bayern Munich I think Villareal most surprising team success lead to semifinal. No doubt with next team against on semifinal although Liverpool I think have chance for Villareal will make different result again. I want to see on final match between Real Madrid vs Villareal and looks interested to see Spain final team on UEFA champion league after last final Spain team between Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid last several ago.

Man City consistency will be tested against Madrid because for me Madrid very strong this season and while Man City only eleminated the teams such as Sporting CP and Atletico but Madrid was successfully eleminated strong teams such as PSG and Chelsea and in fact Madrid is the most successful team in champions league with 13 trophies so i personally considers Madrid is the favourite to win the match and went to final match

First of all, I don't think any of the four teams in the semi-finals are weak. All four teams are strong. And since Villarreal have won against Bayern Munich, they also have the potential to win against Liverpool. So Liverpool must perform well if they want to win.
The match between Real Madrid and Manchester City will be competitive. If Benzema is in full form and can play well, it will not be easy for City to win the match.

After Real Madrid beat Paris Saint-Germain superbly, they beat Chelsea again in the same way that led Real Madrid to the semifinals now. Manchester City also come with a good team strength they have strength in all lines, Real Madrid's task is getting harder.
Will Real Madrid do what they did for PSG and Chelsea, or will Manchester City break Real Madrid's dominance? This match will be very interesting.

City are always ready to defeat any team that's coming teir way. Even the Los Blancos will not take their chances for granted. Firstly, they did a massive come-back against PSG, when Karim Benzema scored an hattrick in the second leg, then Blues came in their way, but was also eliminated with the slightest win, although the blues did their best in the second leg, but their goals was ruled out by VAR and Benzema level the game. The semi finals would be a tough game for both England teams. City will face the Los Blancos side, while the Reds will face The yellow submarine.

Interesting, if Manchester City will play against a team from the EPL in the UCL final, it's like repeating what happened last season. As far as I remember, last season Manchester City won in the EPL match against Chelsea before the UCL final and until finally many predicted Manchester City would also win in the UCL final because of the great victory they got in the EPL. Now, Manchester City's position in the EPL is also the same, they are at the top of the table and against Liverpool previously it can be said that Manchester City is still the best despite the draw. If later in the UCL final they fight again and Manchester City lose, then it's like repeating the mistakes like the previous season. Interesting to look forward to!

History has recorded that Real Madrid is the club with the most Champions League trophies and Manchester City has become strong and entertained since under coach Pep Guardiola. As a coach, Pep Guardiola has experienced how it feels to lift the Champions League trophy, but not with Manchester City.
If Real Madrid will be the opponent in the semifinals, Manchester City's dream will not necessarily come true because, as you said, Manchester City's journey to the semifinals only faced a relatively easy club.
Unlike the Real Madrid trip.

but this season is very different, if you look at the game and consistency of the two teams, Man City is currently superior to real Madrid, but the mentality of Real Madrid when competing on the UCL stage is so big that it makes it difficult for opponents to beat them. I think these two teams have the same opportunity to be able to step into the final.

Manchester City fans around the world hope this year's Champions League will be their first trophy in history and Pep Guardiola will become the first Manchester City coach in history to win the Champions League trophy.
Real Madrid also has a strong desire to add to its collection of champion league trophies this year. I'm not sure if Manchester City will be able to get to the final this year despite their good game this year.

Had a quick view at the replays of the game between Chelsea and Real Madrid.
Tuchel should be the cause fir that game, as I will hold him responsible, as a coach you should know when to attack and when to defend, especially when you're Winning.
Chelsea needed two goals but they had three, before the scire was three one , Tuchel should have made some changes to start defending.
Substitute Loftus Cheek and Mason mount, because it was obvious Kante was tired, could be as a result if fasting during the Ramadan.

The context of the previous season is completely different. Manchester City were the favorites to win the Champions League last season. They played great all season. But unfortunately they lost in the final. Manchester City's performance in the final or semi-final is weak. I don't know why. Perhaps the players have lost confidence. Challenging for Manchester City to reach the final this season. Because in the Champions League I think Real Madrid is more experienced than Manchester City. Still, I hope Manchester City does well this season. Beacuse I want that City will win at least one Champions League trophy.

Manchester City fans around the world hope this year's Champions League will be their first trophy in history and Pep Guardiola will become the first Manchester City coach in history to win the Champions League trophy.
Real Madrid also has a strong desire to add to its collection of champion league trophies this year. I'm not sure if Manchester City will be able to get to the final this year despite their good game this year.

both teams are also strong candidates for champions in their domestic league. Madrid can almost be said they have become champions. because it differs quite far from the points obtained by Barca. while City still maintains their position in the standings with pressure from Liverpool.
Madrid psychologically should be able to play without a burden. they will be able to focus on the semi-final match. but City should also think about the EPL trophy.
both this season have the opportunity to pair 2 trophies at once. but unfortunately, the second meeting will only leave 1 of them who will enter the final.

I think we don't deserve to blame Tuchel for the defeat, because after all Tuchel has done a good job especially Chelsea are currently in a bad condition due to internal problems, with many problems that hit Chelsea but Tuchel was still able to bring Chelsea to the quarter-finals and that we deserve appreciation, apart from that I think madrid deserved to win because indeed the quality of the madrid squad is more experienced than the chelsea squad which is mostly filled by young players, in terms of the actual game chelsea is superior in my opinion but they are just unlucky in terms of scoring goals,so In this case we should not blame anyone including Tuchel as a coach.

Tuchel did the right things in this game in my opinion. I mean yes they were 3-0 up and could have played a little bit more defensive but if he would have changed 2 offensive players for 2 defenders or something like that then this would have also been wrong in my opinion, because if you are doing such changes it also always is an indirect signal to his team that could have unsettled his team. They were doing pretty well and i guess therefore Tuchel did not want to interfere into that.
Also just look at where Chelsea was before Tuchel became their coach. He is really doing an awesome job their so i doubt that anyone is really blaming Tuchel at the moment.

[Luzin]

Real Madrid also has a strong desire to add to its collection of champion league trophies this year. I'm not sure if Manchester City will be able to get to the final this year despite their good game this year.

The game will be even more interesting, it's hard to guess because all these teams are the best. But in 3 matches Madrid always lose. But that's just history that might change for April 27. I hope Madrid can score in the first leg. That would be beneficial for the 2nd leg at the Santiago Bernabeu. But I'm always worried, madrid always struggle against teams with short ball games like Man City.
