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

I don't really think major thing why Messi went to Paris Sant German was because money, He didn't have option when the contract expired and Barcelona couldn't renew his contact as result that they won't be able to continue to pay him huge some amount of money being paid to Messi then as Salary, However, I would preferred him moving to Man City rather than PSG but base on his relationship with Neymar,  I think that's what got him to PSG.

The possibility of Messi leaving Barcelona because Messi is a star player who cannot be paid dearly anymore Barcelona due to economic constraints, although in the end Messi was willing to accept a reduction in his salary of up to 50 percent, but for the fact that Messi joined PSG no one knows for sure, although you link Neymar's relationship and another possibility that Messi could choose Manchester City because of his close relationship with Pep Guardiola. But whatever the opinion based on that statement, only Messi knows the real fact that he wants to be part of the PSG team player.

Talking about a Messi, I see that he has been in decline since he first came to Paris Saint Germain. Maybe some will disagree with what I said, but this is what I see now. In fact, many say Messi only shines at Barcelona but not in other teams. If you say the title that PSG won, before Messi came they already had it.

talking about Messi and Ronaldo is a big theory we might not finish anytime soon but we have to understand that this players have also performed well when at their peak period, which is the only opportunity live offers them and thet have maximize such, how do you now expect Messi to perform same or better than he did in Barcerlona for PSG, are we to talk of the years he had played for Barca or the familiarity he built in the club and team players, we can't expect to keep having same result at all time especially when time and age counts.

Liverpool may perform better next season the problem with Liverpool is that the club don't strikers that will make goal scores and if the can sign players like Ronaldo to make the goal difference.

Ronaldo would have been the best striker to be sign in for Liverpool,  but am still hearing that Ronaldo will still play for Manchester United next season,  he will play for Manchester United till he gets retired. So it is no possible for Ronaldo to be in Liverpool next season.

There is no way Liverpool would splash out to get Ronaldo, don't get me wrong he is a great striker, and with a roster where mane is left wing, ronaldo is striker, and salah is right win, that would be the best team there is on the pitch today.

However, they are fighting over not paying Salah and Mane too much money right now, and if they are not even considering paying 50 each for those amazing players, which is understandable because would make it financially difficult to go on, then I do not think that they would be able to actually provide something for Ronaldo neither. I am not even expecting a big transfer from them this year, just hold onto the money and pay salah and mane.

Mane doesn't want to play in Liverpool. At least that's what I am hearing. I obviously think that it probably is a case of getting low wages from Liverpool.

If they are not financially very well at this point I think it would make a lot of sense if they just don't make any big transfer this season and try to pay Mohammed Salah and Mane a respectable salary. Which I obviously think that they deserve. But if they look at the performance I think they will feel like they need to make a transfer but their performance was not that bad and I believe that transfer can wait for now.

People have so much hopes from Messi and Ronaldo that they will always bring a success to the team.
Although both are getting old but still people love and admiration is uncompromising.
Last night Ronaldo played for portugal against switzerland . Wonderful match it was.

I also agree that his performance with PSG this season was not similar to his times with Barcelona. But on the other hand, I think like it is natural to see his first season here like this. He still had an average season with 11 goals and 15 assists also. The reason why he was not like he was at Barcelona must be that he played for Barcelona for so many years and this is his first ever different team than them. He was accustomed to Barcelona's system for a very long time and it isn't easy to adapt a team that play with a quite different system.

[KTChampions]

My opinion is that Messi shine in barcelona because of Andres iniesta and Xavi. Once they has left Barcelona, we've seen what's happened to that team. Anyway, I don't think that Messi has some motivation to continue to

play with Paris Sant Germain, only money is his motivation. 

He should change his team and come back to Barcelona, with Xavi, they can do big things together.

Same thoughts. Xavi and Insta in the national team without Messi won two euros in a row plus the World Cup, while Messi set anti-records in the World Cup and the America's Cup. And by the way, in the Spanish national team then there was also a small quick striker who scored a goal per game - Villa. I think everyone understands who was the basis of this design and who was the replaced link

Yea with the new signing real Madrid will perform better next season, even though they won the championship but some of the players need to move to other club players like Benzema.

Real Madrid really had a great season. Winning both the La liga and Champion League title. Although, their squad seems quite strong. But, it will be nice if they probably strengthen it with some talented players. Because, next season will be more tougher, and they need to be well prepared. However, Benezema have been a goal machine in the team ever since Ronaldo departed from Madrid. Nevertheless, he has to play In other clubs in order to face new challenges.

I would say that as long as Benzema is in form and able to maintain his fitness, the Real Madrid team will not have to rely on any other striker. He is an extraordinary player. At the same time his fitness was so excellent that he suffered very few injuries. However, Real Madrid should look for another talented striker. Real Madrid must be ready to replace Benzema. Otherwise they will face problems in future.

[RILWAN]

I believe in the posibilities of real Madrid if the current transfer plans go as planned and if there signing of new and skillful players that can transform the club to a better position in the next season.

Benzema is 34, time is not on his side, not everyone can be Christino Ronaldo. I doubt he'll have another fantastic season like this one (wining both domestic and champion league trophy and also having those individual records). He should be thankful he had one of his best season and soon will be going home with the balon d'or. If anything was to make him not win it this time (which I doubt) then it's over for him.

Real Madrid definitely needs a goal scoring threat and not just a striker which is probably why they were trying to get Kylian Mbappé bust since that didn't work out, they should start scouting as just benzema can help them this time around.

In any case, such big clubs as Real Madrid should strengthen every year to have a certain margin of safety. Well, specifically in the case of Real Madrid, there is a situation when such team leaders as Modric and Benzema are not getting younger and can dramatically slow down their results at any time. Therefore, in any case, the club needs to strengthen. Maybe not to arrange a complete restructuring of their squad, but still maintain the necessary level of competition between reserve and base players. The most important thing here is not to live up to the moment when the players can no longer cope with their tasks and cannot cope with their rivals, who, unlike your club, have changed and progressed.

i don't think Benzema needs to find another club, he's doing just fine at real madrid being the star of the team, no reason for the team to let him go unless he wanted to, but what real madrid should do is find a good striker as Benzema is getting older and they don't have a good replacement for him so far, so Real Madrid will try their best to keep Benzema as long as he keeps performing so well.

he's at the right club, I don't see another club that equates performance with Real Madrid. If Benzema wants to have experience outside the club I think it's wasting his time and will make him regret to back and want to Madrid again. Especially,  unless he's not needed anymore. But in Real Madrid, the club and fans is still needed him to get the target of 2023. So what Real Madrid does for the next session is find who can able to supply the ball for him.

In what cases should Benzema move from Real Madrid?
Have you not seen how Karim Benzema has performed at Real Madrid this season? so you say you have to move to another club. Know that other players who come to Real Madrid may not necessarily be as good as Karim Benzema so I don't think Benzema needs to be transferred to another club even though he is 34 years old now.

I don’t think that Benzema will move to another club, because he knows that he can win the champions league again with Real Madrid and the only other club that could use his services would be is Liverpool in case they lose Mane, but I’m not sure that Klopp would bring him as Mane’s replacement. Lastly I’m expecting him to stay with Real Madrid and compete in the champions league and create history by winning it again, and I’ll be disappointed if he leaves when he’s performing so well for Real Madrid.

Benzema is now 34 and with his performance, looks like he still have about 2 active years left. That was exactly why Real Madrid wanted Mbappe. But since Mbappe only agreed a three years contract extension in PSG, I feel Real Madrid would get him when his contract expires. Because by then Benzema wouldn’t be at his peak no more. But until then, Benzema's overall trophy haul is already extremely impressive and he has his eyes set on even more glory over the next few seasons. He’s an experienced player and knows how to manage his fitness, so far as he’s injury free, I don’t see how he’ll drop in form.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

They won't, Mbappé better win it all at PSG because he's unlikely to get a move to Real Madrid that would had given him more spotlight and greater opportunity to be in the conversation about the bests and probably get him some personal awards like the Ballon d'Or etc. The Real Madrid boards aren't happy with Mbappé for playing them the way he did and used them in getting a higher paycheck from PSG. The fans too aren't happy with Mbappé so probably the whole dream of playing in the Real shirt is over.

If I'm not mistaking, the president of the clubs and the league entirely (that's la Liga) has showed interest to sue PSG and all this is because of the Mbappé deal. Mbappé cost Real Madrid so much as I'm positive, they didn't pick interest in Haaland just because they thought they got him (Mbappé) and now they lost both.

Real Madrid as the team with player composition above 35 years old like Karim Benzema and Modric but still as regular player on the team, I think not any chance for Karim Benzema trying get new club except he has chance back to old club Lyon or try with MLS. Become top scorer for Real Madrid on La Liga and UEFA Champion League I think he keep priority as central forward for Real Madrid on next season after club not get agreement with new forward until nowadays, I think after losing Mbappe not any new forward are serious for Real Madrid, maybe still have chance with Madrid without any transfer on forward position.

About that I guess that Karim Benzema will end his career at Real Madrid. Too much old to change Team. Hope that he will play until the 40 years, it is really fantastic to see him  .

Anyway, that wouldn'be a bad idea if Real madrid starts to find another player for the future which will be the substitute of Benzema.
