UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Visbay]

I'm not worried about AC Milan current pattern which u described as boring. I'm more concern about Tottenham who already had lose in ac Milan home.  AC Milan always play well against England teams. If you watched their match against chelsea in the champion league group stage, u will see how flexible they were. Now that the club isn't giving very good result as expected I wouldn't say it's their pattern of play, it's because of their current form.im sure AC Milan will play well against Tottenham at white art Lane.

Despite having bore home win right now this spot is fair balance for the both sides because AC Milan is having troubling time and their performance is also not as par required which is the biggest issue for them if they want to qualify for the next round then surely they need to play better because Tottenham at home is never been easy team, and currently they are also having issues but still they can do better for the quarterfinal spot in last three matches they are doing better with having three clean sheets but Tottenham which is currently fourth in Premier League also having impressive home record as they beat Chelsea and Manchester City, so life could be not easy for the AC Milan as they are also going to have just one goal advantage in first leg match and now need to stay safe for their next round chances.

I don't blame Potter for the excuses he is giving. I blame the new chelsea owner who feels he can just assign a championship coach from anywhere and give him 5 years contract without giving regards to his Portfollio.since the ownership by Abramohvic, Chelsea has remain a big club that does not joke with it's image, but this current situation has added bad paintings on the club which I don't thing can be undone with Potter remaining as the head coach. Chelsea needs a new coach.

And this is exactly why the new owner hasn't sacked Graham Potter yet because he knows he'll be blamed and this was his very first decision which many would use to judge him for a very long time especially the english media. We should not blame Todd Boehly instead we should blame Graham Potter for been a fraud, as it stands Brighton are doing quite well without hi. which means he wasn't that good as we saw at Brighton instead the prayers were they ones doing a very good job and graham Potter was just taking all the glory.

To be frank, I think we all knew Chelsea was bigger than Graham Potter just as it was bigger than Frank Lampard when they were appointed. Graham Potter would be sacked very soon but I hope he hasn't bottled the champions league for us before he's been relieved of his job as the head coach of Chelsea football club. Chelsea under a caretaker will do very well than under Graham Potter, I'm begining to think they players don't respect him anymore since they know he'll be sacked soon.

I think Napoli have a good chance of reaching the final depending on the draws for the next round. I expect them to win in the 2nd leg like they won in the 1st leg and if they can draw 1 of the weaker teams I think they can go far If they are going to play against Real Madrid I think that would be bad luck because they are 1 of the most exciting teams in the Champions League. The game against Real Madrid would be fun while it lasted though.

The match between PSG and bayern are still giving us a big question about which team that will be going to the last 8. Facing PSG/Bayern in the last 8 could also be the worst thing that will be got by napoli. Real madrid is not the only strongest team in UCL.
If bayern will able to pass into the last 8 and any team must be so careful with chance to face bayern.

I can't even wait for the continuation of UCL very soon. This makes me feel that if some matches need to be done as soon as possible to know the winner especially for PSG against Bayern as these teams are also strongest team in UCL.

I may also pray that real madrid to face bayern/PSG and Napoli faces dortmund in the last 8. That's gonna be very good draws.

Chelsea is seriously going through a big problem and I don't know where it all emanated from, it's been a very disappointing season for all chelsea fans and supporter, many people are actually accusing their coach for being the course of Chelsea's current failure, meanwhile in an interview, the coach said that Chelsea was already in trouble before he took up the position of a coach for the club.
I really hope they would come out the mess soon enough though.

This is a very poor excuse, even if we assume he is right then his job is to fix the problems Chelsea was going through and improve their performance and the results they were getting, and so far this has not happened despite the very high amount of money Chelsea has spent bringing the players he asked for, so unless he can improve the performance of Chelsea on the short term he is bound to eventually lose the support of the owners and get fired.

Chelsea needs a new coach.

This situation is also the same situation that coaches like Lampard faced when they were the coach of Chelsea. It was as if he will do well when given more time, but as more time was given him, the more confused he was with team.
I think that Graham Potter has also entered into same situation. Potter could be lucky that the new signings could bring him fortune and he will change the narrative in the club.
But if he becomes unlucky, he could end up being sacked for poor performance.

I believe Chelsea cann definitely become better if they sack Potter as soon as possible and bring the right manager for the team. They are just wasting time with Potter right now and the season is going on terrible for them in every tournament. I won't be surprised if they become eliminated by Dortmund in the Champions League as well. It wouldn't be surprising to have a similar game to the first one.

Because Chelsea are still unable to score even one goal. There need to be an explanation for this but I don't see any.

And what a new manager can do with a team that can't even score goals? Im pretty sure the biggest problem in Chelsea isn't the manager, but maybe some internal problems that we can't see, bringing a New manager will not change anything in my opinion, they should fight and give everything to qualify against Dortmund and save their season

The latest news regarding the Bayern Munich vs PSG match in the second leg later is that coach Galtier has confirmed that one of his players Neymar will not be included in the squad list due to the ankle injury he suffered during the domestic league match against Lille two weeks ago. This makes it a little doubtful for PSG to be able to turn things around in the second leg later at the Allianz Arena, because right now they really need Neymar to complete the combination of Mbappe and Messi in attack. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich have benefited greatly from this news and of course they will be very excited to lock in a win so they can qualify for the quarter-finals.

There have been so many critics of him recently. We will see whether PSG will able to perform better without him or not. As far as i know that if some press in france was hating him so much. I think that this will prove whether PSG will able to perform even better than neymar or not.

As far as i can see that if neymar's contribution was also a lot for PSG.



It doesn't even make sense to call him as a problem for POS. it can't be appreciated. The match against bayern in allianz arena gonna be the dead or alive match for PSG. PSG was not able to win in the first leg but the second leg gonna be even much more difficult compared with the first leg.
That's very sad that if PSG really needs neymar to play against bayern. The chance for bayern to win is very high.

In the last press conference of grandfather that I listen to, he mentioned something that is very important. He said some of the Chelsea players said that their season's preseason tour was the worst experience they have had. If you can remember, Graham was not given enough time to prepare the boys for the season.
It was only the death of Queen Elizabeth that gave him bearly 14 days to prepare a team. So even if a new coach is called by Chelsea, he will he find it difficult because there's no time to train with the players.

Changing coaches alone cannot be a solution. Tuchel was not a bad coach. He was quite experienced. However, he was sacked and Potter was appointed as the new coach. Potter could not improve the team. Chelsea's performance has deteriorated day by day. Now it is likely that the Chelsea management will decide to sack Potter. But this is not the solution. Chelsea management needs to raise a big fund to strengthen the team. To add talented players to the team. If the team lacks talented players then changing the coach will not improve Chelsea's performance. So I'd say Potter should definitely be given a chance before changing coaches. And Potter should be given the opportunity to form the squad according to his wishes.

Chelsea's Premier League and Champions League performances are starkly different. It's hard to say how likely Chelsea are in the Champions League so far. But the Premier League opponents will be very strong.

The new manager and the different strategy that can be used. Potter is always focusing with its potter ball which has been proven so many times if it's a useless strategy. Even soton could also defeat chelsea. That being said that any effort already made by potter is actually useless not only for the club but for its players too. Some chelsea's players are feeling so tired with potter and i think that the new coach will able to give chelsea players new spirit again.
Potter may have a few more chances to make chelsea win the match. The next match gonna be an easy match against leeds. It will be so bad if potter gets another lose against leeds. Chelsea is now being favored by bookies while i will pick leeds.

Because Chelsea are still unable to score even one goal. There need to be an explanation for this but I don't see any.

The only goal happened once chelsea was facing westham. Chelsea was never making any goal again since the match against westham. For 600 millions squads and that's a big shame for potter.

[shogun47]

I agree with you and I get your point, but from a strategic point of view I actually wonder whether it would be better to bring on Mbappe for the first half instead of the second half. I know he was brought on in the 57th minute, but he could have probably also played the first 45. The game is a lot different because Bayern can't push forward as much as their defense is much more prone to successful high speed counter attacks due to Mbappe.

Your argument about Mbappé is absolutely correct. Because it is very challenging to put a counter-attacking specialist player like Mbappe on the bench against a team like Bayern Munich. However, the coach did not keep him on the bench.  Due to his injury problems, the coach kept him on the bench.  And Mbappe was brought on in the 57th minute when he saw the team on the brink of disaster. But Mbappe wanted to play from the start.

the coach knows more about Mbappé's fitness, but regardless of what happened in the first leg, I think these two teams still have the same chance in the second leg.
and I hope Mbappé will be included in the starting lineup.

PSG has very high quality players in every line, the same goes for Bayern.
being 1 goal behind is not something that is difficult to chase, regardless of the second leg that will be played at home to Bayern, I think it will not have a big impact on the performance of the PSG team which has many stars and experienced players like Neymar and Messi.

There is no discussion about it that the coach knows more about Mbappe's fitness, but I said that obviously the goal against them in the 53rd minute made him react immediately and let Mbappe play. If it's possible then, why not even let Mbappe start and put Bayern under high pressure from the very beginning? It is also a strategy to bring Mbappe like he did because the defense of Bayern might be a little bit tired in the second half, but when you only bring Mbappe once you conceded a goal, it is a moment too late in my opinion. It is subjective, but I don't think that Galtier is an amazing coach anyway. He is an average coach and that's it.

One thing is good for PSG now and that is that Mbappe is fully recovered. He is the only player besides Messi who could make the difference. It needs Messi for the deadly assist and Mbappe for the speed and the quality to use his few chances he is going to have against Bayern.

After adding Enzo Fernandez to the Chelsea team, I have not noticed much change in the team. Instead, after bringing him into the team, Chelsea lost some matches and managed to draw. But Enzo Fernandez is undoubtedly a good young midfielder.

I also believe that even if Chelsea sack Potter, it will not make changes to Chelsea as soon as possible in the second leg against Dortmund, making the team great not in a short time if there really is something like that maybe because the team is full of great players, so this is not entirely just a potter's mistake but it could be in terms of the players too, yes, even though Chelsea might be eliminated that wouldn't be a surprise either.

Chelsea has scored only two goals in their last 10 matches. And they conceded 13 goals. It is easy to guess that Chelsea's overall team situation is very bad right now. Chelsea has talented players like Aubameyang, Pulisic, and Sterling in the attack. However, Chelsea coach Graham Potter is not able to extract good performance from these players. I'd say it's Potter's failure. I saw Aubameyang's performance in Barcelona. He is an excellent player. Graham Potter is solely responsible for Chelsea's poor performance. Chelsea's situation is bad now because of his strange match tactics.

I expect them to win in the 2nd leg like they won in the 1st leg and if they can draw 1 of the weaker teams I think they can go far If they are going to play against Real Madrid I think that would be bad luck because they are 1 of the most exciting teams in the Champions League. The game against Real Madrid would be fun while it lasted though.

Napoli is one of the teams I'm looking forward to watching how they play in the second leg, but I believe they have the upper hand in moving to the next stage; if they draw and win their second leg, they could face Inter, and if they do, Napoli might go to the semi-finals. The only barrier I see for them is Bayern Munich or Manchester City; even if Real Madrid wins their stage, it would be tough for them to pass past those teams easily.

I believe Chelsea cann definitely become better if they sack Potter as soon as possible and bring the right manager for the team. They are just wasting time with Potter right now and the season is going on terrible for them in every tournament. I won't be surprised if they become eliminated by Dortmund in the Champions League as well. It wouldn't be surprising to have a similar game to the first one.

Coaches are not fired in this manner, if managers are fired in this manner for ineptitude, the club will lack vision. I understand how hard it is to see your club fail twice in a row, but I believe it is too early to dispute that, they should give him till the start of next season, just as Erik was able to turn things around for Manchester United.

[CLS63]

Real Madrid are going on incredibly great in the Champions League. Their performance is much more impressive than they have in the La Liga now. That victory over Liverpool is really hard to forget. Because it was a really huge win in Anfield which I assume not many people would have expected such result. Ancelotti is like he is motivating the players specially for the Champions League right now.

After Barcelona have increased the point gap with them in the La Liga maybe Ancelotti just wanted to focus on the Champions League title more. Real Madrid are a winner team and they wouldn't accept a season without title. I know that there is Copa del Rey going on as well but it isn't as valuable as the Champions League.

[shinratensei_]

I also believe that even if Chelsea sack Potter, it will not make changes to Chelsea as soon as possible in the second leg against Dortmund, making the team great not in a short time if there really is something like that maybe because the team is full of great players, so this is not entirely just a potter's mistake but it could be in terms of the players too, yes, even though Chelsea might be eliminated that wouldn't be a surprise either.

At least it will be better rather than still defending him to be a coach for chelsea. You can hope the new coach will give a big change to chelsea. Potter got so many chances to prove himself but since he was not able to do that and what can you expect from him? i expect nothing from the upcoming match against leeds and dortmund. I think that the match against leeds will be quite entertaining as mediocre team will face clown team under potter. The way chelsea playing football is so entertaining right now started from there are so many miscommunication in the club, losing control when dribbling the ball, so many inaccurate passes, and many more. this gonna be another epic match like when chelsea is against soton. Leeds will win against chelsea.

Margin three goals  I don't think problem for Real Madrid winning on second leg although have poor performance last several days after losing from Barcelona on copa del rey first leg. Second leg need to draw or losing under two goals have been enough for Real Madrid qualifying to quarter final and Liverpool have scoring quickly on first half if want get chance keep exist in  Champion League this season after poor performance in Primer League.

Indeed Real Madrid left fewest points with Barcelona in La Liga I don't think Champion League is the target only by Carlo Ancelotti, I sure this season have chance for Madrid with treble winner from Champion League, La Liga and Copa del rey.

Real Madrid has been performing fairly well in the Champions League. Liverpool have a great match with Real Madrid ahead and Real Madrid will be looking to secure a big win in this match and move forward.
