UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Distraction]

I don't know how good Chelsea would be able to do with this game against Dortmund. Because they are still having serious issues in their Premier League matches these days. Currently they are playing against Manchester City and they are the losing side by 1-0. However they might not play in the same way in the Champions League maybe. Because they were better in the group stage while having some problems in the Premier League. Maybe they wanted to focus on the Champions League more.

But this is hurting them on one hand. They need to improve this effort and maintain a lasting winning streak. Otherwise we won't see Chelsea in the Champions League next season unless they win the Champions League title in this one. If they had Tuchel maybe there would be a small chance but now I don't even give that chance to them.

Newcastle are showing a great game this season and given the problems of the competitors, their chances of getting into the top 4 are very high, I think they are favorites against Tottenham/Liverpool/Chelsea.
Now I will root also for Newcastle (although I do not like oil clubs) - I really want to see Ronaldo's epic return to Europe plus a strong new club in the Champions League.

The owner of Newcastle United has denied the claim that he is making plans to move in signing Ronaldo in any slight given opportunity

I think this is the right time for the media to rest their case and stop sponsoring irrelevant and fake news around the internet. Ronaldo now has a club and we should allow him to enjoy his new club and not to link him to another club when being unveiled in his new club.

Yes, you are right, it is worth waiting at least the summer to re-discuss the options that Ronaldo could theoretically have. But Ronaldo is too big a brand to "pause" and forget about him even for a short time. Speculation will continue for a long time to come, and with the example of Ibrahimovic returning to Europe from America, anyone would believe that something similar could happen to Ronaldo.

You know Liverpool played so well last season nobody that no one really noticed the midfield's problems, but now that everything is falling apart, Liverpool have no alternative but to pour money into the team.
They need at least two midfielders. Keita is good but is injury prone. It is really tough for Klopp this season I just hope that he can still do something about his formation.
But first he must be willing to invest in good players to be the best.

It would be unbelievable if Liverpool didn't manage to land some good players during this transfer market. They signed Gakpo, that's great and I think a few more players can also be expected before the transfer window closes. Their form has been bad this season, so the option is to bring in some players especially midfielders and forward.

I believe Liverpool will compete better in the second half of the season. Klopp may need to adjust his strategy so that the team's performance can be improved. Nunez, who has so far been expected to be able to bring Liverpool flying, also hasn't performed with impressive performance, but that's him with a slow adaptation.

The coach of Newcastle United Eddie Howie have come out to speak regarding the clause in Cristiano Ronaldo's contract that will allow him go to Newcastle if they qualify for the champions League next season, According to Him he said he doesn't have an idea about that and that Ronaldo is a great player and he wishes him the best, but there is no such clause in Ronaldo's contract, he said this in the pre-match interview in the Arsenal Vs Newcastle game yesterday. Newcastle United are really doing great this season, loosing only to Liverpool at field, in there last 13 games they have won 8 frame 5 and are currently third on the log same point with Manchester United who have a game in hand.

I didn’t watch the interview so I can’t confirm what was said in what context. Eddie Howie isn’t the owner of the club, Newcastle FC is run by Arab money. Al-Nassr wanted Ronaldo so bad they could have the deal with Newcastle possible. I don’t think Ronaldo or his agent were deceived.

In fact, I think this is a good and profitable thing for Ronaldo, despite his current age, in fact he also still has a great desire to be in the Champions League and accepts Al Nassr with the lure of playing in the Champions League and with a big salary, of course. obviously this makes him receive a lot of benefits although indeed this can happen when Newcastle are in the Champions League zone at the end of the season, but even if not I think Ronaldo has also benefited now.

Management like Chelsea's never gave Lampard the chance to build the team with young players, but Arsenal supported Arteta and today they have the result of building with young players.

Chelsea did the right thing by sacking Lampard but where it seems they made a mistakes is by sacking Thomas Tuchel. Lampard wasn't ready for management and especially not a top club like Chelsea at that early stage of his career. Maybe they thought they could get some fairy tale kind of story from the decision of hiring him but it didn't end so well and he needed to be sacked so as to bring a better manager which succeeded very well.

Even now Lampard isn't doing very well for himself irrespective of him been degraded to clubs of his level of management yet he's yet to get the team going. Everton are performing badly and all that is because of the poor management Lampard has at this stage of his career. Maybe in future things will change but for now Lampard isn't suitable to manage any big club especially not at top levels of the premier league.

In my opinion, Chelsea made a huge mistake sacking Thomas Tuchel at the beginning of the season. It is true that the team was struggling at the moment and needed some changes to the situation. Thomas Tuchel should have been given more time after all he has proven to be worthy winning the league abd the champions league, he deserved to be given that benefit of doubt that he could still turn things around.

Regardless of mistakes or not, I think this is beyond debate because Tuchel is no longer here and now they have to focus on making performance with the new players they have now.
At the moment debating the conditions that have already occurred will actually be useless in my opinion because there will definitely be pros and cons in this matter and it could be that when Tuchel is still there their performance will still be the same as this not to mention that Todd and Tuchel's problems will increase if they are maintained.

the defeat against manchester city is increasingly visible that chelsea's game has dropped since many of their players were injured, i think that is the main factor in their declining performance and soon the champions league will start chelsea must prepare to fight dortmund later if you don't want to fail

The news about Ronaldo joining Newcastle if they qualify for the champion league shouldn't be taken seriously.  Ronald has nothing more to fight for, His return to EPL wasn't favourable and that was because Epl wasn't the best League for him at that age, and I see no reason for him to return after leaving.  Ronald is already at the end of his career, by moving to Al Nasr I think he has made the decision that he best understands the reason.

Ronaldo has been happy with his club, any further discussion about him is not viable anymore caused by he was playing in another league. He can comeback anytime but i doubt that's gonna happen caused by ronaldo is too old to play the football in Eu. I think that anyone can't change this. Ronaldo is good but the fact that if his age is making him not even worthy anymore to be used as a player in EU. I meant look at what happened with another player too.
The old player like him must accept the truth.

A draw against Nottingham Forest and a loss against Manchester City. This means Scoring against a good defensive opponent is a hard nut for Chelsea. Chelsea is currently a citing target to any club. The hope of winning is as good as no hope. How which story will be better in the champion league because we still need England teams to qualify for the next round? The team is very much okay if I should judge from the last match against manchester city. Chelsea can still go back to form If porter could keep his eye low and watchful. he is yet to realize that the team is only lacking a creative attacker/striker and not a defender. and It will be good to get one before the champion league outing in February.

Real madrid will be feeling very confident against Liverpool. Liverpool are currently struggling with poor form even with the recent signings they still find it difficult to win games in the Premier league. Real Madrid are far better in performance and if both teams go against each other with their current forms I believe Real Madrid with come out victorious.

It is an undeniable fact that Real Madrid has an advantage over Liverpool in their current forms. Liverpool is currently in disarray and needs to restructure the entire team. I believe the coach has identified the flaws and will work to correct them. If there is no improvement in the club before their match against Real Madrid, it will be disastrous for the team.

But they are already seeing the Ligue 1 title as easy to get for themselves. They would play much more different in the Champions League. It is the same for Bayern Munich also as they are dominating the Bundesliga. I will be expecting a competitive matchup once again. If PSG have all of the players in the trio in both legs then I will be favouring them.

The league of champions has this match happening earlier than expected. However, today's champions league does not favor big teams that have made a name for themselves in their respective leagues. To advance to the next round, it is necessary to demonstrate proficiency and consistency, as well as a high level of expertise. While we wait for the game, it will be interesting to watch.

The performance from tuchel was bad but it's not as bad as potter. Chelsea under potter looks the worst. I meant look at the result in the EPL. As a big club with so many great players and chelsea seems nothing for now. It's losing again and again. that makes me feel doubt if chelsea can win against dortmund. As far as i know that dortmund is slowly trying to build its team again. That means dortmund may comeback even stronger than before in february to defeat chelsea. Chelsea itself was so bad at this moment. I think that chelsea has a very small chance to win against dortmund.
Todd should give tuchel more time to build the club rather than sacked him

Chelsea thinks sacking coaches and bringing in new ones is the best way for the progress of the club,gone are those days when this tactics work for the club. The club needs to get a coach that will build the team,despite the time taken.

I don't see them go far this season,nobody can tell if they are capable of winning Dortmund, this their inconsistent  football is something worrisome and should be looked into by the management. I could remember those times Chelsea sacks coach and a new coach will do better than the old one,I guess that's old fashion now

The Chelsea side were too hasty about a change of coach and the result is they are now falling deeper into the regular league. I'm not attacking Potter, but I think Graham Potter is the worst coach replacement at the moment, we know he doesn't even have any experience other than coaching Brighton and several other small teams, while Thomas Tuchel has already given Chelsea the UCL title and several trophies at big clubs others he has coached. I'm not sure Chelsea can qualify for this top 16 phase, considering that they always appear with poor performances.

We all know that Thomas sacking was sudden and unexpected but Chelsea was not doing great before he was sacked and  to be honest I don't think that Tuchel would have done better than Potter if he was left as the coach. This is because Chelsea team has alot of injuries and that is why Potter is suffering .
I also know it was not only because of poor performance that Tuchel was sacked

It's not right to make hasty decisions about Potter.  He may not have much experience, but I think he played successful matches in the teams he managed.  I think he can do better after getting to know the team and in an adaptation period for Chelsea.

There's nothing to regret about that, because in fact everything has happened, it's just that this is a lesson for Chelsea not to make the same mistakes. In a situation like this, taking the same steps by sacking their current coach would be a solution? I don't see that as a solution that guarantees they'll be any better. Still entrusting the team to Graham Potter didn't see any big changes either. Chelsea must make careful consideration before making a decision later.

Potter has a very heavy and big task this season in restoring the performance of the Chelsea team and yes it clearly takes a lot of time for Potter. But for this season Potter still has time left to improve every area that is still weak in the Chelsea team, even though it looks a little late for Chelsea to get up, but at least Chelsea can finish the season in a better ranking in their own local league and try to stay survive in the Champions League even though it will not reach the semi-finals.

You must know, Chelsea is a biggest club in career of Potter. It is a biggest challenge he has during his career and by now, I can not say Potter succeeds in Chelsea. In Chelsea, a coach will have to either win Premier League or Champions League and at least complete a season within top four. Beyond top four is a very bad result which can put a coach on fire anytime. They are rich, have high ambition and expect a lot from their coaches. Potter is nearly on fire now.

In Champions League, Chelsea and Potter will meet Dortmund in middle of February and it is still lucky for them. The opponent is Dortmund with their problems with performance and injuries. They are not too different than Chelsea so if Potter manages to help Chelsea recovers in next 5 weeks, they will have advantage to beat Dortmund.

It is a condition because currently both of these clubs have yet resolved their crises.

How can you say that? I meant hundreds of millions USD already spent and chelsea was at the 10th positions which has proven that if potter can't even handle the team properly. How can you say that if he has been successfully managed the team? that doesn't make sense. Chelsea got only 1 win from last 5 matches in EPL.This is a disgrace for a club. Chelsea has already expected as potential winner for champion league but with the current performance and i see no chance for chelsea even to enter in the UCL next season.
Chelsea was the worst under potter. Potter didn't even know how to manage the team

Graham Potter was in the spotlight after continuously getting bad results, it also happened to Thomas Tuchel who ended with dismissal. I haven't heard there is a lot of pressure to require Graham Potter to be fired again with their current appearance, maybe most of them still give credence a little longer. But if this happens continuously, then all those who like Chelsea will be furious with what Potter has presented, so don't be surprised when he is fired by Chelsea later on.
There is not much time for him now, because the league is running, he can take advantage of the transfer market now.
