UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

I think that the level of the competition can also set free a lot of mental elements that otherwise may not contribute as much to the game of a team. Real Sociedad may not be one of the strongest teams in La Liga at the moment, but they are certainly not one of the weakest teams either. If they have most of their important players available for the games against PSG, I think that the game could go either way (or the two games in aggregate for that matter). PSG should have some advantage over them, but even if you say that PSG is a 60% favorite, there is still a lot of room left for Real Sociedad to be successful against them in the Champions League.

Real Sociedad is one of the big teams in La Liga. They often finish the season in the top 6 of La Liga standings. I agree if we can't underestimate Real Sociedad because they have the capability to make a surprise. We know if the teams from La Liga isn't an easy team to be defeated. They often win international competitions like UCL and UEL. So, PSG must be careful to play against Real Sociedad in the upcoming match. Moreover, if Real Sociedad can play with full team. They have the potential to defeat PSG and qualify for the next round. However, I still trust PSG to win the match because they have more quality players.

I think it is rather the exception than the rule that a team which is performing bad in the domestic league is one of the strongest teams in the Champions League. Yes I know that now some people will come up with examples, like Sevilla and how they won the Europa League last season when they were so bad in La Liga. But where is Sevilla now? They finished their Champions League group with 2 points out of 6 games and got destroyed in almost every game. There is a correlation between the overall performance of a team in the league and the other competitions, but yes there are exceptions of course.

Some teams have poor performance in domestic league but success with quit well performance in Champion League, difference with Sevilla performance in this season not only poor in La Liga but also failed and finish on bottom standings in Champion League group phase. But another teams Napoli have quit well performance in Champion League and success qualify to knock out round although with 2nd standings finish position but they have poor and inconsistency performance in domestic league.
I think domestic league and Champion League have difference atmosphere and some teams focus with quit well performance in Champion League but they have poor performance when playing in domestic league.

Napoli was playing in a pretty weak Champions League group and it was not surprising that an average performance would be enough for them to qualify for the knock out rounds in the Champions League. If you call their performance in the Champions League a quite good performance, I don't know but we do differ a lot in opinion here. Their performance was not that good, but good for them that there was no team which was really able to pose a threat to them. If they ended up in a more difficult group, they would have probably failed to qualify for the next round. This time it was a happy ending for them.

It's not really weak like you said above. Given that Napoli was competing against a team as strong as Real Madrid, it would be inappropriate to criticize their performance as weak. I have opposite opinion about that and it feels like napoli is declining after it has done all of matches in the group stage and qualify for the next stage. Napoli is not as good as last season but it can still compete to face barcelona soon. To put all of the players into the defensive line, the only thing that needs to be done by Mazzarri is to make the necessary adjustments. The club shall take counter attack as opportunity to beat barcelona.
Barcelona was a club that is focus into how to build more ball possession. If Napoli focuses on playing with a strong defensive strategy against Barcelona and utilizes effective parking of the bus, they can significantly increase their chances of beating them easily. Napoli's group considerably placed at the medium group.
It has real madrid as the main competitior and do you forget that if barcelona got easy group compared to the napoli? The way to beat barcelona to go through the fully defensive line like parking bus strategy.
It will be making barceloan frustrated with it. Barcelona is going to lose its concentration when the club was always trying to pressuring napoli.

If Arsenal gets a good striker in the transfer chance and get reinforcements in some other positions in the team, their chances of doing very well in the champions league round of 16 more than they did in the group stages will be higher. I see Roma coming to the champions league next season, I see Mourinho as someone with a plan, they look to be on that track already to achieve that with their current position on the table.

I didn't say that their performance in the Champions League group was weak, I said that the group was pretty weak. Since the top two qualify for the next round, having Real Madrid in your group is not a problem since the second also advances to the next round. But Union Berlin and Braga are both teams that are far weaker than Napoli and that is what I meant. If Napoli had played in the group where PSG, Dortmund, Milan and Newcastle played, I don't know if they would still be around in the Champions League. Their performance in the group stage was ok, it wasn't good. But now we will see how good they are when they finally meet some of the better teams although Barcelona isn't good either.

It's not a bad idea but I think with the current squad Arsenal can still be relied on Arsenal finished as group winners in the last round. Arsenal's next opponent is Porto, I don't underestimate Porto but I think Arsenal deserves to go through to the next round, I can't predict how Arsenal will play in the first leg, but in the second leg I can already imagine it Arsenal will destroy any team . The question is after Porto, who will be Arsenal next opponent? I hope not Real Madrid or Bayern Munich because this is the real opponent.

It's no secret that Arsenal need a better central forward to strengthen the attacks. The ability to convert opportunities into goals is crucial, especially in high-stakes competitions like the Champions League. Other positions within the team have been well-balanced that just need to continue the developments. I think Arteta is aware of this situation, because their creativities have been wasted by the front line.

Roma potentially entering into the Champions League next season is something to hard to be true. They are struggling right now. But Mourinho is known for his strategic planning and the ability to build competitive teams. If they continue on this trajectory, securing a spot in the Champions League for the next season appears plausible. The upcoming transfer windows and the remainder of the current season will be crucial in determining their future trajectories.

Arsenal will beat Porto in my own calculations and that will assist them to move further in the next rounds. I want Arsenal to put in much more efforts this time around to be able to claim this trophy but one good thing that will also mean is that, they will break an history they have been fight for for many years now and unable to take the trophy.

I don't think real socieded is too big a team. league winners are rare, getting top 4 is also very rare. only last season got top 4 so this season can compete in the champion league. it's been a long time since real socieded competed in the champion league.
In my opinion, the 3 biggest teams in laliga , Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid plus Sevilla. talking about trophies, they also get a lot of titles both in local competitions and European competitions.

To be honest, I don't see any chance for Real Sociedad to beat PSG. They simply lack the strength to take on the superstars of PSG.

In my opinion the following teams will reach the next round:

Real Madrid
Manchester City
PSG
Bayern
Dortmund
Inter
Arsenal
Barcelona

There are always surprises, this time Barca could possibly be one.

If it was that easy, why did they even play the final in the Champions League last season when Manchester City took on Inter Milan? Because on paper the game was long over before it started, but then we saw a final played by two evenly strong teams. It's not about what would normally happen, it is about circumstances that can emerge from within the game. Little details can change everything. Thought that West Ham would beat Arsenal? Or that Manchester United turns 0-2 into 3-2? Or that Nottingham beats Newcastle? The same happens in the Champions League. Shakhtar has beaten Barcelona for example. PSG has an advantage, but wait for the game.

Arsenal have just suffered a defeat in the EPL, unfortunately the defeat occurred at the Emirates Stadium, which is their home ground. Mistakes that occur in the EPL must be avoided in the UCL, this is a knockout competition, only the team that consistently wins will survive. The transfer market could possibly be used to exchange players or bring in new players by buying them permanently, the defeat to West Ham showed that their front line was very dull. To be able to survive and win the UCL trophy, Arsenal must be able to maintain the team's performance so that it continues to be consistent in all areas, last season Manchester City succeeded in winning its first UCL trophy, Arsenal must try it with impressive play as shown by Manchester City last season.

[Strongkored]

It's not a bad idea but I think with the current squad Arsenal can still be relied on Arsenal finished as group winners in the last round. Arsenal's next opponent is Porto, I don't underestimate Porto but I think Arsenal deserves to go through to the next round, I can't predict how Arsenal will play in the first leg, but in the second leg I can already imagine it Arsenal will destroy any team . The question is after Porto, who will be Arsenal next opponent? I hope not Real Madrid or Bayern Munich because this is the real opponent.

The position of being the favorite team or not will certainly greatly influence who Arsenal will face next if they succeed in eliminating Porto in the round of 16.
My prediction is that looking at the existing teams, there is a very big chance that Arsenal will meet one of these strong teams, and if that happens it will be very difficult for Arsenal to advance to the next round, but before that, they have to be able to overcome the Porto team which is quite good even though many people predict that Arsenal will beat Porto, but in my opinion, the chances of both teams are the same, because Arsenal can sometimes appear disappointing, such as when they lost to West Ham in the English Premier League.

Yes, Mikel Arteta must do something to improve his attack line because Arsenal current shortcoming are just that, the back line is quite good and stable but it also needs to be developed, before playing the match in the Champions League, Mikel Arteta should have thought about option for recruited strikers which can be relied on because the round of 16 is very important, especially since the opponent in the last 16 will be quite tough, so Arsenal must start prepare now before face this match.

Roma is currently in 6th place, which means that Roma potential to take part in the Champions League competition next season is still wide opens. But Roma needs to improved the team performance and Jose Mourinho has the ambition to be able to bring Roma to achieve good result because that is his dedication as a coach so far, he is very experienced so I thinks Roma still has a chances to get into the top 4 if they are more serious.

Indeed Real Sociedad is not favorite teams in Champion League but success finish on 1st standings and made Inter Milan as top teams losses their first standings from Sociedad as mediocre team. Facing PSG on 16 round is not easy for Real Sociedad but their achievement finish on first standings group stage will be motivate for defeating PSG exactly have poor performance in group phase. PSG performance not quit well in group phase they have losses 2 of 6 matches than Real Sociedad with unbeaten from 6 matches, I think could be motivate for Real Sociedad with other teams such as Newcastle United and AC Milan success defeated PSG on group phase round.

I don't optimistic with  PSG chance for defeating Real Sociedad in 16 round, have excited match and not easy give first loss for Sociedad in Champion League match.

Real Sociedad's performance in the Champions League, highlighting that they are not considered favorites but managed to finish on top of their group standings. The text suggests that Real Sociedad's success in the group stage could motivate them to defeat PSG in the Round of 16, especially considering PSG's poor performance in the group phase. The text also mentions other teams like Newcastle United and AC Milan successfully defeating PSG in the group stage. Overall, the writer seems optimistic about Real Sociedad's chances against PSG based on their performance in the group stage.

The poor performance portrayed by most of these UCL clubs have become known and most of them wouldn't make out alive to the next phase because they will be eliminated, elite clubs are not excluded. Real Sociedad performance was underrated and now look at them, they've qualify for the round of 16 and they will be facing Paris Saint-Germain.  However I don't create any room for PSG to underestimate them, perhapes Les Parisiens have learnt their lesson in group stage, when they underrated Newcastle United in the first leg and lost 4-1 at St James Park. Luis Enrique doesn't want that to repeated itself and he will explore his best strategy against Real Sociedad.

This system is definitely more interesting, because the teams that qualify for the quarterfinals will be drawn again and thus, no one really knows which team they will face next. But ya,regarding Bayern Munich in this round of 16 I think it is clear, that Bayern Munich will probably easily win too. Because ya, considering the opponent to be faced in this round of 16 is Lazio and ya, at least Lazio in this season also does not really have good results in Serie A, Because Lazio very different from last season.
Anyway, Bayern Munich clearly has better quality than Lazio because ya, Bayern Munich is always in and plays in the Champion League every season. Therefore, Bayern Munich certainly has better quality and mentality than Lazio and thus, it might be easy for Bayern Munich to beat Lazio later.

I must say that the clubs from the Italian leagues have do well in the various Competitions I mean European Competitions this season that means that nobody should look down on em even if them opponents are stronger.
Bayern Munich anyways have bigger chances of winning the Champions League. We all know how they're preparing hard from the Bundesliga to Champions League.
Sarri and his side have dropped a good form this season, they are not the club to hold down Bayern Munich honestly.
So many clubs are preparing very well, this Champions League is hard to predict, I doubt Pep Guardiola can be able to repeat what they did last season. Winning the treble is something that happens once in a long time.

Serie A teams have performed well in the Europa League and Champions League last season. Serie A teams are doing pretty well this season too.
I think Bayern Munich is the most deserving team for the Champions League title. Real Madrid and Manchester City are very strong indeed. However, there are several weaknesses in their squad. We cannot find any weakness in Bayern Munich's squad. They have a perfect squad. Now the team can win the Champions League title only if they can continue the winning streak.

Every team has weakness, if Bayern Munich face Manchester City in the Champions like league I don't think they will win Manchester City that easily. When you said we can find a weakness I Bayern Munich team I just laugh. I like the champions league because big teams will eventually meet each other and I know Bayern Munich will want to avoid Manchester City till they meet in the finals.

No team in the Champions League knockout round can be considered weak. Even a few years ago we saw a mediocre team like Chelsea win the Champions League title. But no one considers this team as a favorite for the Champions League title. The squads of PSG, Madrid, City and Munich were more strong than Chelsea. Chelsea still won the title. So it is very difficult to predict which team will win the Champions League title.

However, if we compare the squads of the teams this season, Munich's squad must be placed at the top. Do you see any weaknesses in the Munich squad? Their defense, midfield and attack are all three very strong. I'm not saying City or Madrid are weak. However, City's midfield is somewhat erratic without DeBruyne. And Madrid's attack is quite weak. This is why I put the Munich team ahead.

Don't mistake the champions league to domestic league, it's possible that you are convinced that Munich is a perfect team because of the way they are playing in their league. But I will tell you for free that this Munich team can't beat Manchester City current squad. Champions league most times experience counts.

[Velvet78]

RIP for Copenhagen... They will be destroyed hard by Manchester City most probably in both games of the matchup. Galatasaray fans must be the ones who are delighted with this matchup the most I assume.    De Bruyne and Haaland both would be on the pitch as well unless they get injured again before the games.

Having both of these players on the pitch means a much more comfortable win for Manchester City. De Bruyne is like the brain of this squad. Haaland is the top scorer and even more effective with De Bruyne right beside him.

Actually, I feel quite sorry for what happen to them this season, they were in a deadly group and many people's thought that Copenhagen couldn't get through to the rounds of 16 because the only favorited were Munich, Manchester Utd and Galatasaray, but in the end Copenhagen was able to proved it to everyone person if he manages to qualify with Munich from the group stage.

but Copenhagen struggle seems to be endless, he has a pretty tough opponent, namely Man City, indeed the two have met, but thats was in the 2022 season and now they are starting to meet again in the round of 16 and this will of course be a very tough match for him and you could say it's a his struggle only end there

Arsenal need to improve their attack, and make sure to score as many goals as the opportunities as they create. If Arsenal gets a good striker in the transfer chance and get reinforcements in some other positions in the team, their chances of doing very well in the champions league round of 16 more than they did in the group stages will be higher. I see Roma coming to the champions league next season, I see Mourinho as someone with a plan, they look to be on that track already to achieve that with their current position on the table.

With their current squad, it would actually be good enough if only to make it past the round of 16. But to play at a further stage, Arsenal certainly needs a sharper attack power than now. Arteta must really prepare for this. But I doubt Arsenal will get new players in the attack line in the winter transfer market this time. Because it is very rare for a club to let go of a great player in the middle of the season. Arteta might also have to think about making a better strategy from now on. Because I see that the strategy used by Arteta has not improved much from last season. I think he should be able to improvise more. Because the UCL is the biggest stage in football between clubs in Europe. So Arteta cannot waste this opportunity.
