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

[Gosgosking]

Liverpool have a lot of backup players like Diaz, Jota, Firminho if not M.Salah but still this is an important player for Klopp whatever later they have to recover, if that's what you see about M.Salah then it will be fine to face the final later but still at this time there is still no real valid whether he was seriously injured or not.
I know M.Salah's ambition is very big to dream of winning to beat Real Madrid, even a very crucial meeting for me that will score goals.

you have a lot of backups, of course
but Real Madrid are calm and have been calm with the Spanish internal situation
I don't know
I am always inclined that Real Madrid are better equipped to win
surely I am wrong

There are three key Liverpool players currently getting injured and they are Salah, Fabinho and Virgil van Dijk. While these players are clearly the players who are still desperately needed to be able to play in the UCL final against Madrid, if these three players can't play in the final then I honestly doubt Liverpool's performance will be perfect. Meanwhile, when Salah was substituted during the FA Cup final, in my view it was enough to make Liverpool's performance decrease because Trent Alexander-Arnold's right sector did not look alive when Salah was not around. So these are important players for Liverpool and they should be able to play in the final, so Liverpool have a chance to win.

I don't think if liverpool won't decide to use some of this their key players to play the match, because real madrid are coming up with their best player also to see they succeed in winning  the match. I just wish Liverpool players will quickly recover from their injuries,  this is the time Liverpool players are expected to show good performance .

Klopp has provide explanation about recent condition for those players that Salah and Van Dijk got light injured while against Chelsea so for next few days they will got recovered and will back to training so Salah and Van Dijk probably will play in the final match but indeed Klopp has been complaining tight schedule from Liverpool and compare to their opponent seems Madrid has more comfortable because before may 25 Madrid will not faced any important matches again then Ancelotti can rested some of key players

Giving rest to key players or even the entire core squad is a very important factor. Although there are probably no important matches for Liverpool either, because Manchester City will probably be the English Premier League champions. So we can say that Real Madrid and Liverpool will meet in the Champions League final equally rested.

An advantage of course for Real Madrid if Mohammed Salah can not be used in the final match later following the injury he picked up in the FA Cup final match. Meaning Real Madrid will not be under pressure from one of Liverpool's best players. But there is still enough time for Mohammed Salah to recover soon, And I also hope he can play later.

With the look of things I don't think salah injury is a serious one, I think he was fastly substituted from the match against Chelsea, so that he won't gain any serious injury. I don't think such injury can stop him from playing the final against Madrid, cause there is still alot of time for him to recover.

I think mohammed Salah will play in the Champions League final against Real Madrid due to an injury he sustained was not too severe even in the category of minor injuries. There is still enough time for Salah and Van Dijk to recover from their injuries. The Champions League final is the dream of every footballer to play in the match. Final I think this will be a very interesting spectacle as both teams have really performed well this season so as to make the final match of this highly anticipated by lovers of football.

It will be very influential if they are not in the final of course Liverpool's game will be a little flawed but I think in the final everything will recover considering it was a crucial match for both of them.
As I said before Liverpool who have to run two games in important matches with 3 key players are also needed in this match, this will really drain their energy to continue to win without defeat.
And indeed Real Madrid is now ready, everything is just waiting for the awaited UCL Final, but Klopp is still racking his brains to win and how the players can still recover.
Liverpool's situation is a little bit complicated.

It is reported that Salah only suffered a minor injury in the match against chelsea yesterday, but I think that Klopp should be able to find a solution to anticipate bad things that might happen, as a coach, Klopp should have had a plan B if Salah could not play in the final later, as a Football fans, of course, we hope that both teams will be able to field their best players in the final and make the final match quite even, fierce and interesting for us to watch.

I really not too much worried about the injury situation of Mohammed Salah because he did not suffer any serious injury in my opinion and it was just a precaution taken by Klopp so that he will be able to play Muhammad Salah in the Champions League final. I believe Liverpool and Real Madrid both teams will be able to play their best squad in the Champions League final and it will be a great match to watch.

The injury of Salah is not too serious and he can join the Champions League final. His combination with Mane after their conflict was resolved is amazing. They find each other better. Salah makes a key pass, Mane scores or oppositely.

In addition, Liverpool have another good news that Van Dijk does not get a serious injury too. So he will recover and be ready for the final as well.

They will have their best players from defensive to attacking systems for their third Champions League final in last 4 years. Liverpool are doing so great with Klopp and this player generation.

I said yesterday it was a precaution taken by the manager of Liverpool about Muhammad Salah or van Dijk

Jurgen Klopp reveals fresh Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk update as Real Madrid loom

This news certainly takes away any suspicion of injury for the Liverpool players. I did expect something like this because I did not expect any serious injury for any players and now I am double sure that it was just a precaution taken by the manager of Liverpool. The final is going to be great because both teams will be able to play their main squad.

Certainly Liverpool will have to face Southampton without Virgil van Dijk, Mo Salah and Fabinho for an important league game but of course we would accept them to beat Southampton without these three players. Liverpool concern right now is if these three will be ready for the UEFA Champion's League final clash against Real Madrid. I know their medical team doing all they can get these players for the final hence Klopp leaving them out for this premier league clash.

Liverpool does not have any injury problems. Subbing salah was just a precaution taken by the manager and it was a great move. all the important players are going to be available for the Champions League final and Liverpool is surely trying to play with its full power in the Champions League final. and they are also playing the other matches carefully so that the players do not get injured. Klopp, he's also making sure with important substitutions that the main players stay fit for the Champions League final.

[Minecache]

I do think that in general Liverpool should be considered the favourites to win the final, but disregarding the potential Salah and van Dijk injuries, the biggest problem they might face is a loss of confidence due to failing to win the domestic league. Obviously the Champions League is the most important tournament for all the big teams, but Liverpool are so close to a historic 4 trophies, but it seems that the domestic league is going to elude them with Man City set to win. It's been a close fight all season, with Liverpool making up ground and at one point looking like favourites... I do wonder if losing at the last minute might cause a psychological blow that affects them for the CL final. Of course Real don't have the same issue, having already won their domestic league.

Mohammed Salah and van Dijk are going to be 100% fit to play in the Champions League final. Klopp has revealed that the injuries are nothing serious.
So, it was just a safeguard as I expected. The two players that seemed to be at risk of getting injured the most are clear of any potential injuries. Liverpool will be able to play their full-strength squad in the Champions League final and it is going to be a great fight between the teams.

[kro55]

Mohamed Salah will be able to play against Real Madrid, it is more likely. But if Liverpool has to make a team without Salah, I don't think they can beat Real Madrid. Madrid is a very experienced club. And they know the weakness of the opponent very well.

M. Salah will definitely appear in the champions league final
I've looked deeper into it, and I found a video of m.salah laughing as if without a problem watching the penalty in yesterday's fa cup final, is on Liverpool's official twitter. I'm a little relieved, I was a staunch Liverpool supporter in this season's Champions League final. I'm sure he will play against real madrid soon

Mohammed Salah is going to play for Liverpool in the Champions League final and it is quite sure after Klopp said that there is no case of injury for the players.

Liverpool is surely going to play with all their strength to win the Champions League because I don't think they are going to concentrate too much on that English Premier League title.
Obviously, it is not out of reach but if we look at the comparison the Champions League final seems to be the more logical target.

On the injuries to Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, manager Jurgen Klopp did give much details but suggested the injury was not severe but for Fabinho? He is ruled out of tomorrow's clash against Southampton. I think the idea is to rest  both in order not worsen their injuries.  They will need them at full levels for the UEFA Champion's League final more than ever.

The Champions League is a very prestigious league among other leagues, because the clubs that enter the Champions League are the best teams from all leagues.
so I think the Champions League will be prioritized by all clubs especially facing the final which in my opinion even though it was reported some players were injured it was just a formality that ended up being played and I believe all Liverpool's best players will play in the final because Real Madrid is a very tough opponent to face, so an influential and balanced player is needed.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Now I hope that Real Madrid are going to be the team achieving the Champions League title. I'm pretty sure of one thing that we are going to watch a great competition between Real Madrid and Liverpool. I'm expecting it to be at least as competitive as the Real Madrid - Manchester City matchup in the previous round. Real Madrid are relying on especially Vinicius and Benzema. And Liverpool will be hopeful about Salah to recover until the finale. But I think that duo will play a big role and Real Madrid will become the champions.

[AakZaki]

Of course it's a risk, because they have a chance to win some competitions. One of them is the FA Cup and they have won. Then the EPL, their points difference is very thin with Man city, then the chance of the EPL champion is still open. The last one is UCL. So they have a chance to get 3 championships this season. The risk of a great team, actually Kloop is not right if it is reasoned like that. They just need management and champions to answer the wishes of their fans.

Meaning Real Madrid will not be under pressure from one of Liverpool's best players. But there is still enough time for Mohammed Salah to recover soon, And I also hope he can play later.

Klopp sensitivity in seeing Salah condition in the FA final match should be appreciated, because I think Klopp acted quickly by replacing Salah to anticipate that Salah would not suffer a more serious injury, I think actually in that match Salah might be able to continue the game but Klopp of course didn't want to Losing Salah in the Champions League match later, Klopp himself has confirmed that Salah has a non-serious injury and maybe when the Champions League Final match is played Salah will can to play.

[arallmuus]

Mohammed Salah and van Dijk are going to be 100% fit to play in the Champions League final.

Its still uncertain considering that Liverpool still has two games in EPL fixtures and they need to win those games so I doubt that Klopp will be subbing most of his main lineup up. In worst case scenario, some of his players could be injured depending on how those game goes and we wont even know if any of those players will be fit for the UCL Final
