UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[wakier]

Real Madrid or Manchester City. Don't try to buy quotes from scraps. European football is over, there are only these two teams

Real Madrid is indeed the club that has won the most Champions League titles with a total of approximately 14 titles they have won. So favoring Real Madrid, who can also be said to be the king of the Champions League, is normal. But Man City actually looks more trustworthy at the moment. I see Man City as a pretty perfect team when they are at their optimal performance. Unless Haaland doesn't come back quickly. Real Madrid experienced a setback last season. But this season they are starting to recover and even compete again in the race for the title in Laliga with Girona and Barcelona. But I'm probably not the one who will favor Real Madrid. Because I have always liked teams from Italy for a long time. And last season Inter Milan almost got it without the obstruction of Man City, who were superior.

I personally see the competition for the Champions League title this season between Man City, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Bayern. Because Bayern, after getting Kane, turned out to be stronger in attack and that is extraordinary progress that I have seen from the club.

It is natural to make Real Madrid the favorite team to win the UCL title because this team has won the most titles but choosing Man City, Inter and Munich is no less impressive because the performance of the 3 teams is extraordinary in fighting for the title in their respective domestic leagues and In the UCL, these 3 teams are also very strong, especially Munich, which has got a very sharp striker, as well as Real Madrid and Man City, each of which has superior players. I myself have not yet decided which one of the 4 teams above is better. is the favorite because the 4 teams are still having very good performance to date so it is difficult to predict.

Arsenal is not even in a good situation in Premier League and that's why I think we can't expect them to have good results in the tournament like Champions Legue.
Arteta is getting more experiacned and he id making progress but he is still far from a coach like Ancelotti with lots of experience in Chmapinos Leeague and tthat's why I think Real Madrid will have much more chance than other teams.

Arsenal will always repeat the same patter in any season. The club will be declining so hard while the other club was slowly improving a lot. Im also feeling bored to see how arsenal was performing so badly. It doesn't even make sense to call this club as one of most favorite club to win the trophy this season. Im also questioning myself about having arsenal fans ever feel bored with the club? Arsenal keeps give bullshit promise, which was also hurting the situation in the club. Real madrid was very strong right now and xavi will be sacked by barcelona soon.
Arsenal never had good history in the champion league and it sounds non sense if people were convincing themselves to think that arsenal will do better this season in UCL. So many teams were even stronger compared to the last season.
The gunner was not in my favorite choice to win the UCL this season. I would rather pick intermilan instead of arsenal. This makes more sense rather than pick a club that was rarely getting trophy.

Yes, in terms of squad depth, Arsenal and Real Madrid are very different from the players in those clubs Madrid far superior and has bigger chance winning the Champions League title, even Real Madrid has a bigger chance.
Let try to compare it with stronger ones like Bayern Munich, even though they have very high quality new players, but in terms of experience, Real Madrid still the favorite club after manchester City, but for some reason the bookies believe that Bayern Munich has a bigger chance of being in the position second after Manchester City.
Or maybe the reason because real Madrid one of the candidates to hold the Champions League title but has pure strikers, which different from several other clubs.
But still, I would prefer that Arsenal candidate be replaced by Inter Milan, which currently has Martinez, who is considered scoring machine for Inter and I am sure that Arsenal will quickly be eliminated and will be replaced by Inter Milan, which is currently very good condition.

This is UCL, arsenal almost never had a good move in UCL. I would prefer to get another club like intermilan which was placing as runner up last season. It makes more sense rather than arsenal. Arsenal was also failed in europa league last season. What he said above was actually true about that. It doesn't make sense to put arsenal in and it seems like that bookies were missing intermilan which is still very consistent at the serie a . Arsenal is starting to decline too and this is also supporting my opinion to say that arsenal deserves no spot to be favorite to win UCL this season.
I would prefer to replace it with intermilan but it looks so strange to see bookies were doing it. Im ok with bayern and real madrid to be placed as the most favorite clubs to win UCL but arsenal?
Is this a joke? You forgot that if there was a worthy candidate to be placed as the strong club from serie a. Intermilan may make it again to go to the final in the future. Im only saying based the fact. Intermilan qualified to the final and it was losing against city.
It means intermilan was worthy enough to be picked as strongest contender for the UCL trophy along with madrid and munich.

Arsenal are a good team, they're active in all competitions and they've got the special ability to get victorious at the end. Well for me they've got a great squad and impressive management too but it'll be better if there's an improvement to what they already have. Adding a striker to the list and a few more players with increased effect won't really be a bad idea, rather it'll push the team into getting greater, bigger results.

They're good didn't mean they were strong enough to get UCL. What you mean about special ability? Arsenal didn't even have winning mentality. Look at how the club was bottling EPL and europa league last season. This club was also rarely getting trophy.
Adding the new players are still remain gambling for arsenal. Im concerning about the performance from nketiah and havertz. These guys were so bad. I don't even think kroenke will agree to spend more money to buy expensive players while the current squad never deliver.

It's actually good that so far, the team have been promising and they're working smoothly with their manager too. Errors are quickly corrected and coordinations are present to. One would wait to anticipate what the January transfer window holds for this team. But for the meantime, they still have top contending chance in the European tournaments too.

I disagreed with it. Let's talk about the fact that how many trophies acquired by arsenal since 2021? It was always missing everything which mean arsenal was a weak team. It never won UCL too.
Logically, if arsenal was a good team and it has been winning many trophies. I would not call that a trophyless team like this as a good team. There is a better team like liverpool or manchester city who rarely bottling its performance.

Yes, in terms of squad depth, Arsenal and Real Madrid are very different from the players in those clubs Madrid far superior and has bigger chance winning the Champions League title, even Real Madrid has a bigger chance.
Let try to compare it with stronger ones like Bayern Munich, even though they have very high quality new players, but in terms of experience, Real Madrid still the favorite club after manchester City, but for some reason the bookies believe that Bayern Munich has a bigger chance of being in the position second after Manchester City.

But still, I would prefer that Arsenal candidate be replaced by Inter Milan, which currently has Martinez, who is considered scoring machine for Inter and I am sure that Arsenal will quickly be eliminated and will be replaced by Inter Milan, which is currently very good condition.

Arsenal may be far behind compared to the strength of Real Madrid this season. I won't even doubt that Real Madrid will be ready to win the title this season. For Arsenal, they are a team that is building their strength and maybe they need time to win the UCL trophy. Apart from that, I see that the season's competition for the title will be dominated by Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Arsenal need some significant overhauls in their squad if they want to become champions. Arteta must have a striker who has the ambition to continue scoring goals because when the team has a productive striker they will be ready to turn things around if they fall behind first. Even so, Arsenal is still quite considered in the Champions League this season. They have to be able to give us a surprise because it would be quite interesting if they were able to make it to the final this season.

I myself have not yet decided which one of the 4 teams above is better. is the favorite because the 4 teams are still having very good performance to date so it is difficult to predict.

I also can't decide which one I actually predict will have the best chance of winning the title this season. Although I might hope that Inter Milan can perform as well as last season. But in my heart I honestly also feel that Inter Milan will have difficulties this time. Because Bayern and Real Madrid this season are different from their performance last season. Especially Real Madrid with its young players who always make everyone praise their team's performance this season.

And actually it is possible that those who will go further this season are not from the 4 clubs above. Because many surprises happen in every season. Even last season, Inter Milan was not included in the 4 favorite clubs in the Champions League because they even had difficulty qualifying from the group stage and the round of 16. But they kept going even though it was difficult. Last season, Inter Milan was in the same group as Bayern and Barcelona, ​​which made it difficult for Inter to qualify from the group stage. But this season I see that Inter Milan has had quite smooth steps.

Real Madrid or Manchester City. Don't try to buy quotes from scraps. European football is over, there are only these two teams

I think the champions league is not just Real Madrid and Manchester City.
There is still Bayern Munich which is very strong. This season in the champion league in the group phase became an unbeaten team. although in the group it is also not easy because there is Manchester United too.
So a strong candidate for champion league champion this season besides Manchester City and Real Madrid, Bayern Munich is also a top tier candidate along with Real Madrid and Manchester City.

For now, in terms of performance it is not wrong if in the end the club mentioned have the potential because of their respective advantages  such  as Madrid who still holds the highest throne of the trophy problem Manchester City as the defending champion as well as the results of the treble last season Bayern who sometime canot be expected to become champions and Inter who became finalist last season.
But indeed things like this are still a speculation because in the end they still have to be able to prove that they still deserve to be a favorite in this competition.
The situation that occurs now in the round of 16 to these 4 club is still the strongest probability of qualifying for the next phase considering the opponent is still below them unless there are some surprises that can occur in 2x90 minute of  match in the round of 16 but im sure they will be able to get through  this phase.

So a strong candidate for champion league champion this season besides Manchester City and Real Madrid, Bayern Munich is also a top tier candidate along with Real Madrid and Manchester City.

When in the Champions League, our discussion must also be comprehensive and look at all the clubs that have similar strengths. While I agree that Real Madrid vs Manchester City would be the ideal final, clubs like Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and others also have a chance of being in the final.
This isn't a one-club Ligue 1, it's very competitive and things can happen that you wouldn't expect. One match will be decisive, especially as we are in the knock out stages which means every match must be maximized and no unnecessary mistakes must be made which will cost them in the end.
Indeed they have 2 opportunities in 2 matches, but it becomes more risky when 1 match cannot be maximized properly.

[Godday]

It's too quick to predict which team will win the Champions League this season, in general all the surviving teams still have a chance to win the Champions League. Of the 16 teams that are still surviving, there are several teams that are on the list of top teams. In theory, these teams are considered to be successful in reaching the semifinals, but surprises could happen because in football anything can happen depending on the quality of the game.
Teams that want to win the UCL trophy this season must always use all their energy to always beat the opponents who stand in their way. Until the end of the competition, only one team will remain and that team will receive a prestigious trophy from all European competitions.

I agree with you. That's why I said that before the game reaches the semifinals, we still can't determine which team is the best to win the trophy. Currently we are still in the top 16 and all teams still have the potential to knock each other out. I really favor Madrid to win the Champions League trophy, especially after yesterday they were able to beat Barcelona and win the Supercoppa De Espana with a score of 4-1. Madrid is the best team in the world this season.

If Kevin De Bruyne can now get enough practice, it will also have a deep impact on Manchester City's game. It's impossible to replace someone like him, let alone when he is at his optimum and then gets an injury. He scored a very important goal against Newcastle now and this could give him some valuable momentum for the next few weeks. Haaland benefits a lot from a well playing De Bruyne.

Now Manchester City has one more difficult game against Tottenham in the FA Cup. The next six weeks will be exciting for them and I hope they can keep everyone on board and nobody gets ruled out due to injuries.

Injury and time away from game have no impact on KDB performance with his back in game entry is amazing and score goal which help his team to win the match is clearly showing how dedicated is he about winning for his team now they are going to face Tottenham in The FA game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after this Manchester City having three more games which will give them good practice for having match against Copenhagen which is also good at home and in last game they hold city for the draw now they will keep things at his best even they have not good chances for the qualification into last eight but still they will try to create problems for them as well which create frustration for them in this round, but win is still for the Manchester City.

Apart from that, there has been no news about Arsenal's latest signings this January and I think they have to do it, especially for positions that are considered less productive. Of course what I mean here is a strong striker and maybe they should immediately start looking for a new one before January ends rather than having a bad season.

Indeed Arsenal have been quite silent in January transfer window. This wasn't what I expected from them especially after Arteta stated it like they would strengthen the squad with new transfers in winter.  

But I also hope to see at least one move for a specific position. I believe that it could be centre-forward position. Because I don't think either Gabriel Jesus or Eddie Nketiah is good enough these days. Arsenal would make use of a star striker or a young striker who has been shining recently - like Serhou Guirassy.    I believe that Guirassy can be much more efficient than both of those two strikers when it comes to scoring goals.

This would be a great move for success in the Champions League as well.

Arsenal may be far behind compared to the strength of Real Madrid this season. I won't even doubt that Real Madrid will be ready to win the title this season. For Arsenal, they are a team that is building their strength and maybe they need time to win the UCL trophy. Apart from that, I see that the season's competition for the title will be dominated by Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Arsenal need some significant overhauls in their squad if they want to become champions. Arteta must have a striker who has the ambition to continue scoring goals because when the team has a productive striker they will be ready to turn things around if they fall behind first. Even so, Arsenal is still quite considered in the Champions League this season. They have to be able to give us a surprise because it would be quite interesting if they were able to make it to the final this season.

People who bring up such discussions are volleyball players, because if they play soccer or even watch, they wouldn't want to make such a crazy cliam. I Indeed find all of these things funny!
Arsenal struggled against Fulham, and they couldn't get a draw and they have the grounds to compare em still with Real Madrid. They should go see highlights of the game against Barcelona yesterday as they went ahead to win them first trophy of the season.

They don't need no overhauls, most of them players had the approval of Mikel Arteta before sliding into the squad. Elenny, and  Thomas Partey are both players that need leave though.
They need a new Central Midfielder and then a new Central Forward, the sale of either of Nketiah or Gabriel Jesus would be peng.

[QueenVera]

I also can't decide which one I actually predict will have the best chance of winning the title this season. Although I might hope that Inter Milan can perform as well as last season. But in my heart I honestly also feel that Inter Milan will have difficulties this time. Because Bayern and Real Madrid this season are different from their performance last season. Especially Real Madrid with its young players who always make everyone praise their team's performance this season.

And actually it is possible that those who will go further this season are not from the 4 clubs above. Because many surprises happen in every season.

But they kept going even though it was difficult. Last season, Inter Milan was in the same group as Bayern and Barcelona, ​​which made it difficult for Inter to qualify from the group stage. But this season I see that Inter Milan has had quite smooth steps.

So far, this season has been very much unpredictable for most leagues, the rate of increased performances from both small and less threatening teams of before have spontaneously grown. All the European leagues are currently in a state they've not been in for a while. And as time passes we'll be seeing more changes in football.

 At first, it was just the EPL that always seemed challenging and unpredictable, now both German, Turkish, Italian and Spanish Leagues are different from the usual tempo they were known for. Inter Milan are rising, so is Leverkusen who are consistently threatening and Girona who are rubbing shoulders with the likes of Madrid and Barcelona. Let's anticipate how the remaining weeks of the season would turn out for these teams. For sure, it'll be a tough ride.

It's impossible to replace someone like him, let alone when he is at his optimum and then gets an injury.

Now Manchester City has one more difficult game against Tottenham in the FA Cup. The next six weeks will be exciting for them and I hope they can keep everyone on board and nobody gets ruled out due to injuries.

Injury has to be the only reason as to why Manchester City would lose them form and if Kevin De Bruyne get knocked out of the squad again, there'll be issues because Manchester City would definitely be in a very deep shit they can't solve.
That's the qualities a good player brings into the squad, within the first few minutes into the game the rest was history made, just as Pep Guardiola has said his a damn legend.

The pass, vison to lay that pass for Bobb was awesome, last time I watch stuffs like that in the Premier League was Fabregas launching such for Diego Costa. Bobb also with the fantastic touch and finishing.

I still think that Manchester City isn't as strong as they played last season. No doubt that they can still world class soccer and they do, but last season they reached a peak that was so high that it felt as if they were invincible. When they played the first game against Real Madrid and tied the game 1-1 thanks to a goal of De Bruyne, they afterwards showed in the second leg that there was at least one level between them and Real Madrid. It was a 4-0 and I saw that game and to be honest, it could have ended 5-0 or 6-0 without a doubt. That was shocking to see Real Madrid get dominated like that. But I don't think it would be the same this year because Manchester City seems to be a degree weaker.

[Weawant]

It is natural to make Real Madrid the favorite team to win the UCL title because this team has won the most titles but choosing Man City, Inter and Munich is no less impressive because the performance of the 3 teams is extraordinary in fighting for the title in their respective domestic leagues and In the UCL, these 3 teams are also very strong, especially Munich, which has got a very sharp striker, as well as Real Madrid and Man City, each of which has superior players. I myself have not yet decided which one of the 4 teams above is better. is the favorite because the 4 teams are still having very good performance to date so it is difficult to predict.

Amongst all the above mentioned four teams, Bayern Munich has the least of experiences and it's very paramount that they will most likely be the first amongst this top four to not get to the finals as Thay look very much like they will be stopped at the semi finals because they may not have the much needed experience to go beyond there.

Real Madrid and Manchester city still remains the favorite for the finals because Manchester city is definitely in the bid do defending their title this season but then real Madrid is very much will to get the title from Manchester city at almost every cost and they do have a very sounds team but I feel with the return of the injured players of Manchester city in the likes of Kevin de bruyne and probably haland who will hopefully join them before the end of the season, Manchester city may be a very big problem to real Madrid.

[JeffBrad12]

Real Madrid or Manchester City. Don't try to buy quotes from scraps. European football is over, there are only these two teams

It's quite pathetic how you forgot to mention bayern munich as one of the strong team this season. It has been doing a lot of efforts to strengthening its club like bought kane from totenham. City and real madrid are the best but bayern munich can still count on the miracle that can happen anytime.
Since Manchester City has De Bruyne back in the main squad, I am guessing that other clubs will be scared when they face Manchester City. I can imagine that when real madrid to face manchester city as its opponent when haaland wil be also be able to playing against real madrid.
This will be the most interesting match, I hope that i can see madrid to face manchester city again.

[FanEagle]

The bad part about what City going through right now is that KDB is back, and we all know how kevin plays, that dude has been awesome ever since his return, just a couple games and he is already doing things that saves them, dude is amazing and I agree that he is going to end up being even better. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a missing player yet again.

They got Kevin De Bruyne back, but they are missing Haaland right now at the same time, those two were the best duo in all of football world last season, and they haven't played any games together this season so far I think, or if any, that must be before KDB got injured. So City is not even at 100% right now and will take a while, need to get Haaland back, and both those players in 100% shape.

[Patrol69]

If Kevin De Bruyne can now get enough practice, it will also have a deep impact on Manchester City's game. It's impossible to replace someone like him, let alone when he is at his optimum and then gets an injury.

But I don't think it would be the same this year because Manchester City seems to be a degree weaker.

Although there is not much change in the team, there is a significant difference in performance from Manchester City this season compared to last season. Last season they had a very consistent performance from the start which made us feel that Manchester City will definitely dominate Europe this season and Manchester City did but this season's performance doesn't seem to be the case. They are missing a midfielder and their most important player is injured which is probably the reason why their performance does not look like last season. They must improve their performance to compete with the big teams in the Champions League. If Manchester City can improve their performance, Manchester City can be a thorn in the road for the best teams including Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

[Pandu Geddon]

The bad part about what City going through right now is that KDB is back, and we all know how kevin plays, that dude has been awesome ever since his return, just a couple games and he is already doing things that saves them, dude is amazing and I agree that he is going to end up being even better.

So City is not even at 100% right now and will take a while, need to get Haaland back, and both those players in 100% shape.

When Haaland returns to the team and can play alongside Kevin De Bruyne, it will be a scary collaboration again in Man City's attack line.
Unfortunately, Haaland reportedly suffered a more serious injury after previously trying to take part in group training. but reportedly the injury recurred and even got worse. He looks like he will enter a fairly long recovery period, even longer than the target until the end of this month.
Pep still has good players, but they have to work hard for the team so that their performance does not fall. Man City is not just Haaland, but his figure is always extraordinary for Man City's attack line.
