UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

What Napoli have to do is continue to be consistent with the current conditions so that will be very good for them.

I think Napoli is gotten a little bit lucky over the inconsistency between Ajax and Liverpool, as I know If both (Ajax and Liverpool) play consistently I believe they won't be at 1st top. Ajax is still adapting to a new coach and player that needs much time to be consistent, while Liverpool since doesn't have Mane, they are like lost a supplier ball to Salah. So, Napoli must take advantage of the opportunity, I won't be surprised if have perfect points when Napoli plays consistently.

Liverpool just can't have such bad results with Mane's lack.  There must be some problems with the team.  Of course, it is clear that Napoli played very well, but I think this is partly due to the bad form of Ajax and Liverpool.  I thought they would go head to head with Ajax, I was wrong.  Napoli smashed Ajax.  Ten Haag's departure from the team had a huge impact on Ajax.

Napoli are in their best form right now. They won all three matches. Napoli scored 13 goals and conceded only 2 goals. Ajax and Liverpool are strong teams. Even then, Napoli maintained their dominance against them and won. Maybe the performance of Ajax and Liverpool is not good now. However, Napoli's dominance was evident in every match. I'd say Napoli will qualify for the next round from the top of Group A.
Ten Hag's departure isn't the only reason Ajax's performance has deteriorated. They have sold several players in their squad. And so their performance is still not stable. They need more time to stabilize.

If you are going to compare players, look at the player quality of Benfica and PSG. Messi, Neymar, Mbappe are the best attacking part of PSG. In the defense, Ramos, Hakimi, Marquinhos are the best defense lineup. Even then, how can we not be disappointed in PSG's game? I will compare PSG with Manchester City. So how will PSG dream of winning the Champions League?

In terms of the quality of the players, it is clear that PSG is far superior, but again, this is a game of teamwork, not individual, so that no matter how strong and big the names of the players at PSG are, when they are not able to maintain cooperation, the results will not be good.
Benfica played very solid and disciplined in this match and of course this is something that is difficult for PSG to do.
As for the championship, I still think that the Champions League is still not the place for PSG.

I'm not going to compare Man City and PSG, they have different strengths and that's clear, in football a strong team won't always win games and that's normal.
As for SPG when they played at Bencifa's home, IMO, this match was very exciting, especially in the first half.
PSG really struggled when Benfica had a chance to attack. but PSG also did not lose the chances they had, 15 total shots, 7 shots on target, including Neymar's chances when he hit the post.
PSG owns 65% of ball possession, but what we have to admit is that Benfica is able to keep up with PSG's game.

I'm a little different from you, IMO, SPG still has a big chance in this competition.

I have always seen PSG as a struggling side whenever they play in the Champions league. Reason being that, the seem to do all the work as regard possession and attack, but with only a few goal aggregate. They are one great side I have always loved watching even before the arrival of Messi. Their style of play always comes to question when they play teams from mostly Spanish league and English premiership league category. They still have a good chance to the finals.

Napoli strikers are doing wonders in this season that made many people to believed that they will win this title, because they used to achieve goals in every game just to make their fans happy and to prove to people that they have something suitable to win in this UEFA champions league competition. If Napoli can maintain their defense till the end of this tournament, it will be difficult for them to experience any challenges till they remain in first position in this tournament.

The only time I can confidently appraise the Napolean team is if they make it through to the finals without conceeding many goals. Liverpool is really not quite in form, perhaps they still feel the energy of Mane missing, otherwise, I would place them above Napoli to go farther in the finals. The Napoean team have to really work on alternatives for defence and strike positions, because that is the only way their team doesn't crumble under pressure once the season long matches start taking its toll on the players.

There's no way to compare Manchester City and PSG since Premier League is full of strong clubs while Ligue 1 we all know PSG will always become a champion, this mean PSG performance will be stagnant since they're not met many strong clubs due to less competitive.

In this season UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid and Manchester City is the top two clubs, I just hope both of them aren't met on semifinal which mean one of them will be loss before become runner up.

Napoli and Bayern Munich will be a good contender, Benfica, Dortmund, Liverpool and Inter Milan is an underdog club. I don't see any chance for the other clubs to be honest including PSG.

Football is win, draw and lose. No matter how good you are, your team must obey the rule of Football. At your best scenario as a good team, you win many, draw some and lose a few. There can never be 100% win all through.
But we should not fail to understand that PSG drawing with Benfica is a sign that they can lose the finals if they eventually gets there. They are not invincible and such is the other clubs.
In as much as everyone is expecting either psg or City to win this season CL, I think City is more qualified than Psg.

Napoli current form is surely one of the biggest shocking performance because as they sell their few top quality players there was talk they could be suffered badly but from the start of this season they are giving amazing performance in Serie A and Champions League with their win against Liverpool with the score of 4 - 0 is also telling all story how best they are in early stages of both competitions but here now it's time for them to keep momentum because they have history of chocking at the end of the season which is another concern for them in last season as well.

If they are able to keep playing like this surely we can expect good results from them in coming matches which is good for Italian soccer as well because in last few seasons they are suffering badly and have no positive results in European competitions, it's good time for doing their best.

After showing consistent performances in the group stage, Napoli will be one of the teams to qualify for the knock-out round from Group A. One other place will be fought for by Liverpool and Ajax Amsterdam, while Rangers will certainly fall without being able to provide competition.
Napoli can be said to be lucky because Liverpool and Ajax did not perform as they should, Liverpool who started the season with poor performances have not been able to get back to their best. While Ajax are going through a transitional stage with their new coach, currently Ajax have not been able to perform as well as when Ten Hag was still their coach. Napoli need just one more win to secure a ticket to the knock-out stages and they have the potential to qualify as group winners.

I want to say a little about PSG. To win the Champions League, PSG added players like Messi, Ramos, Ashraf Hakimi to their team. But PSG's current form is disappointing. Even if they win the match, they are not in the form to win the Champions League. PSG needs to play more fast-paced. But it is hard to believe that they are now drawing against Benfica.

Indeed, Napoli showed their strength by beating Ajax 6-1. Their team now shows very good football game which is attracting the fans very much. However, I hope the game between Liverpool and Arsenal will be very competitive. Liverpool will try their best to bring back the form of the team.

Yes Napoli managed to benefit from the declining game from Liverpool and also Ajax Amsterdam. They managed to wipe out 3 matches with a full win and sit at the top of the standings. If they can maintain that then they will easily qualify from this group stage. They only need 3 more points to get 1 ticket to the knockout phase, and I think they will.

PSG struggles in the championships league in terms of goals but when it comes to ball possession and defense they are mostly at advantage. If the three forward (Mbappe, Messi and Neymar) can cooperate PSG will be more formidable than Manchester city because from the look things Man city have the best stat in the championships league currently. If Christophe Galtier can make this possible then it's a big win on their part

[borovichok]

Barcelona have to do what Ever they can, in winning inter Milan in the second leg at Nou Camp because I think that will be their last hope, and I think xavi should use more of experience than talent in that game,I would love to see kessie and Frankie De Jong starting, because for me Gavi and Pedri are lightweight and not too experience, with kessie and the Dutch so lawendowski will see more of the ball and he should also go with Torres instead of Torres in the starting eleven because is their last hope if not they will be playing Europa League next year.

Even if they win the match, they are not in the form to win the Champions League. PSG needs to play more fast-paced. But it is hard to believe that they are now drawing against Benfica.

Winning the Champions League trophy is PSG's main target, but unfortunately PSG always fail. Even though PSG have spent large amounts of
money to bring in many star players. What PSG management forgets is to win the Champions League trophy it is not enough just to have
a good squad, however, there must be good cooperation between PSG players. Because in football a strong team is what creates solid cooperation
between players.

Meanwhile, if I look at PSG's game, some players still play selfishly and rely too much on individual abilities. Especially PSG players are often difficult
to control by their coach and several times there are disputes between players. If PSG's situation does not change, it seems impossible for PSG to win
the Champions League trophy. Facing Benfica, it was seen how PSG players seemed to have difficulty scoring goals, even if Donnarumma didn't
play well, PSG should have conceded more than one goal. If I look at PSG's performance so far in the Champions League, it is not satisfactory,
and even I doubt that PSG can reach the semifinals.

Winning and getting 3 points against Inter Milan at Camp Nou is most priority for Barcelona if you want to have any hope of qualifying from the group phase, if get draw or loss I think almost close chance for Barcelona can qualify to group stage round. Can't predicting what happen with Barcelona actually at Champion League because have impressive performance in domestic league and success lead first standing awhile. But in Champion League faced difficult how to win on every match, lost 2 of 3 games most poor performance from Barcelona actually with 3 points achievement until 3 games.

Xavi still not believing to give regular position for Frankie de Jong and Kessie until several games in Champion League, need to give them minutes chance because midfielder area still weakness for Barcelona after defeating from Inter Milan, I think Gavi is not worth include him in starting eleven, better give back regular position for Frankie de Jong as attacking midfielder and put Kessi as holding midfielder replace Busquets position.

If they can maintain that then they will easily qualify from this group stage. They only need 3 more points to get 1 ticket to the knockout phase, and I think they will.

Napoli will definitely qualify for the next phase because Napoli only needs one more win and two more draws. This means that Napoli is very safe in its current position and no longer burdens it to qualify for the next phase in the Champions League. But for Liverpool and Ajax still have to fight to get a win in the three remaining matches in the Champions League group stage A.

Barcelona schedule is not so tight compared to other teams such as Inter although next week they will playing repeat match against Inter but they had good advantages because playing at Camp Nou and indeed Barcelona should be wins all of the matches to ensure their position will not be replaced by Inter and maybe their highest achievement on group C is runner up position because it's almost impossible to taking over Bayern Munich position in the first places so basically this is the competition between Barcelona and Inter that whoever the teams who can playing consistent they can went to next stage along with Bayern Munich

Barcelona might likely go back to Europa as they did last season. The way I'm seeing things, no club is easy to win anymore.  Even the anxiety and aura of Camp Nou has faded. If it was before, we would be sure that Barcelona will grab 3 points in their home stadium, but this time around many things have changed and things doesn't work easily as before.

Because Inter Milan will certainly appear with more mature preparation after their victory in the first round. Their strategy succeeded in stopping every attack that was built by Barcelona. And in this match they will do the same. Depending on what Barcelona play, if they can break down the defense that Inter Milan is building then they will be able to win. but if they play like the previous game then it will be difficult for them to win. Learning from the previous game, they lost their way in attack and possession was wasted.

[nara1892]

Interest in Manchester City appears every season to be able to win the Champions League trophy they want. It wouldn't be that easy for them to get that, because the other teams that were here were also targeting the same thing. Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint Germain are some of the strong teams out of many other strong teams competing for it. The road they have to walk is so heavy in front of them. Last season they were also the biggest favorites for the trophy, but they weren't too tough against Real Madrid even though they could have taken the lead.

I would say that so far they have been a great team every season, and they played very well football every season as well, and each year they bought one player that would make some difference for them too.

However, this year they added Haaland, a player that they bought for cheaper than what he is worth, and now worths more than double what he should be at around 150 million. Imagine a situation where you add that type of player into an already good team who went to semi-finals last year. I am guessing that they are going to be heavy heavy heavy favorites this year, they were already seen as a big candidate before him, now they also have him on top of that.

The addition of Haaland to his current form is definitely a complement to City and it's only natural that they are favorites now even more than before.
As long as they don't repeat the same mistakes they made last season against Madrid by loosening up their defense too much because they believe in Aggregates and winning then I think they will still be very consistent and it's not impossible that they can do better than the previous season.

Things are starting to look up at Chelsea. Graham Potter and his team, who beat Milan 3-0 at home, will hopefully recover after this. It will be good for them to get at least a draw away from Milan next week. In fact, it is a group where chelsea will easily come 1st but the bad run has affected them. They still have a chance. If they win all their remaining matches, they will easily come first in the group.

In group E all teams still have a chance to qualify and only Salzburg have 5 points remaining while Milan and Chelsea have 4 points.
Next week will be another meeting for the second leg, of course with a draw it is not a good hope for Chelsea they want 3 points to look safe for a while in the group if a draw is still very likely there is a chance of qualifying but still competing with other teams but the only way is to win with Milan again I think that's what Potter needs to improve Chelsea's quality again.

Chelsea started this season very badly, both in the English championship and in the Champions League, but they are slowly raising the level of their game and I think they will almost certainly pass the group, as first or second.
The new coach has obviously done a great job.
If Dinamo beats Salzburg in Zagreb, then I think that until the end the fight for the second place in the group will be between Dinamo and Milan, and their match in Zagreb will probably decide.
I still give Milan a small advantage.
At the beginning of the qualifiers, everyone expected this to be an easy group for Chelsea and Milan, but until the end of the competition, it will be uncertain and exciting.
