UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[nurilham]

I'm starting to doubt Barcelona will be able to go far in the Champions League this season, the setbacks they're experiencing are real, and the latest result was when they lost to Villareal and that was after they were also eliminated from the Copa del Rey this season.
It's obviously not going to be easy for Xavi Hernandez and the players as they will be up against much stronger clubs in the Champions League. If they continue like this then Napoli will be able to eliminate them easily in the round of 16. The problem is that they can't do anything big in the transfer market because they have financial problems that don't allow them to spend more money to have a more solid squad. The key is to stick with the players they have at the moment.

Since the early of the season, no one feel confident about Barcelona to win UCL title. Current Barcelona team is too different with the old Barcelona team. There is no longer a winning spirit and mentality among the Barcelona players. They are lack of confident and always difficult to improve their game. Even they can play very offensive, they still get difficulty to score goals. The problems is in the attacking and defense, sadly Xavi doesn't get a proper solution to deal with the problems. I'm sure Xavi actually wants to rebuild the squad by signing some top players. Unfortunately, Xavi can't do it because Barcelona has a problem with their financial.

Indeed. The current performance of Barcelona looks worse. They are often defeated by weaker teams with big scores in La Liga match. They are also defeated with big scores by Real Madrid in the final match of Spanish Supercup. And they failed to go to the semifinal of Copa Del Rey because they are defeated by Athletic Club. How they can win UCL title if they couldn't win in domestic competitions? 

True. It is not impossible if Napoli will eliminate Barcelona in UCL. Although Napoli also performed inconsistently, they sometimes can be strong enough in UCL match.

Yeah PSV is in a better situation, even Peter Bosz's squad is currently at the top of the Eredivisie competition standings. but it is not an easy matter for them to beat Dortmund in the round of 16 meeting. The reason is, PSV also experienced problems when playing their match in the Group B phase of the Champions League. of 6 matches, two wins, 3 draws and one loss. In the group B phase, PSV had a little difficulty when playing the matches against Lens and Sevilla. IMO, for me, PSV's only advantage against Dortmund is playing at home in the first leg. That's why, currently the bookies are favoring the home team over Borussia Dortmund.

On the other hand, Dortmund experienced a decline in performance, especially at the start of this season. Even though Dortmund is in 4th place in the Bundesliga, Terzic has to work hard so that his team can get three points even with an ugly win. It's just that Dortmund is a team whose performance is quite difficult to predict. Plus, Dortmund's problem is with pure strikers who have difficulty completing their tasks as goal scorers. That's why, this season, Dortmund is having difficulty improving its performance. However, in fact, Dortmund was able to become first place in the Group F phase even though they had to work hard to occupy it. in fact, they are capable of doing so. in the last 3 matches in their Domestic League, Dortmund's performance is quite impressive even though their opponents are mediocre teams. especially in the two matches Fullkrug started to contribute in terms of scoring goals. especially in the match against Bochum. The pattern that Terzic applies to his team is quite effective. Niclas Fullkrug scores his first hat trick. 4-2-2-2, looks like it will be Terzic's mainstay pattern in the middle of this season. by pairing Fullkrug and Moukoko on the front lines. Well, we'll see when these two teams meet. Plus, I'm still following Dormund's development pattern, especially the pattern that Terzic will apply in every match.

PSV vs Dortmund is one match we’ll love to watch out for especially as PSV are doing well domestically and got just a loss in the group phase of the UCL. Well currently PSV are doing pretty well but will they be able to stop Dortmund, it's going to be a very tough one cause both teams are going to go hard on eachother, I think there would be more goals in this match, maybe 2 to 3 goals.

 Borussia Dortmund are also a great side who knows how to fight and challenge for their spot and they would not hesitate in doing so. Dortmund have one issue which is in the attack; they’re not scoring more and the defense seems shaky and if these are worked on then they’ll seem unstoppable.Well this match will majorly be decided after the first leg and PSV will have to take their chances well if they need to get luck in thos fixture.

 PSV vs Dortmund

This is a game where both teams have equal chances of winnning
While both teams are small teams in the European stage, Borussia dortmund have a unique recent good history in the champions league and I believe that edge should make them defeat psv easily in the champions league round of 16

[Weawant]

Yes, exactly. It is true that Dortmund is materially better than PSV, but in their respective domestic leagues, PSV has appeared consistent and has never even been defeated in the league, only recording one draw. Even so, in the UCL match the two of them appeared different. In the group phase, PSV only suffered one defeat and two draws, leaving them in second place in the group behind Arsenal.

Dortmund itself performed well in the group phase and even ranked first even though they were in a difficult group. I mean, PSV's performance is better than Dortmund in the domestic league, but in the UCL league, Dortmund is better. So my conclusion is that the round of 16 match between PSV vs Dortmund is my prediction that Dortmund will win because they are more experienced in the UCL league than PSV.

Buy in Germany dortmund hasn't been really good enough so it's very possible they will not be able to perform so brilliantly against PSV and I'd you check well PSV did performed well ar the group stage although they did finish second but they did had a very good performance playing through the group stage.

If Dortmund have a better strategy since this is UCL and they wouldn't want to take chances with any form of poor performance, they will definitely want to proceed to the next stage of the league and thats only possible by winning the two games they will be playing against PSV buy they should expect strong resistance and shouldn't expect to see some easy game but understand that playing in the UCL comes with a different kind of challenge and any teams they will be facing isn't playing weak.

PSV since the start of the season have been very consistent especially in the Dutch league as they currently lead their domestic league table by  a whooping 12 points after 19 league games. Before the UEFA Champions League competition returns by next month, they might even extend their point difference which will further make them not to panic when they're playing in the UEFA Champions League competition since it'll be almost certain that they're gonna win the Dutch league at the end of the current season.

Borussia Dortmund this season might not be very good in their league but in the UEFA Champions League, they were able to finish as the group winners of a group that consists of Paris Saint Germaine, AC Milan ahd Newcastle. Despite Dortmund's inconsistency in the Bundesliga, I'm still gonna root for them to defeat PSV

[Josefjix]

Of course you cannot expect of them a possible Champions League win during this season as they simply have not the quality players required to achieve such thing.They are not doing that well in their domestic league either where they are only in mathematically in the title fight while I believe they to not have a chance to win it this season.Of course financial problems can have some serious impact in any team be it great or small as it cannot let the management to buy good players to improve the team,in some other cases even force good players to go away from the team because of such problems.

The more reason why the UEFA Champions League competition is important is because these coaches put it forward and make it their top priority to win every new season, we ought to understand how difficult it is for these clubs to win because they keep striving harder every season to accumulate good profits. The UEFA Champions League competition is definitely not for any random average team that's in good form, instead it's for the top clubs that knows how to handle their duties without complain from their headcosches.

PSV has been enjoying a remarkable season in the Dutch league by showcasing impressive consistency and currently leading the table by a substantial 12-point margin. This dominance domestically provides them with a comfortable cushion, potentially easing any pressure as they enter the latter stages of the UEFA Champions League. Borussia Dortmund is quite abysmal. They look uniterested in Bundesliga games while topping the group of death in the Champions League. Despite their inconsistency in the Bundesliga, Dortmund has proven their capability on the European stage. The mentality playing in UCL games can be an asset for a team to face a crucial UCL match.

The excitement comes with rooting for a team, especially in prestigious competitions like the UEFA Champions League. The knockout stages can bring surprises, and if Dortmund can carry their European form into the upcoming clashes, they may indeed pose a formidable challenge to PSV. It's always intriguing to see how teams perform in different competitions, and the clash between PSV and Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League will undoubtedly be a compelling matchup for football enthusiasts.

This is inevitable because after all, with Barcelona's current condition even though they can actually still be said to be good in terms of performance for the Champions League, but in Domestic competitions they are in chaotic conditions and this could be eroded and carried over to the Champions League which could disrupt them.
The current situation of Barcelona is in an unstable condition and is currently exacerbated by Xavi's decision to leave at the end of the season which will definitely make Barcelona's internal situation even more chaotic.

Financial problems that are allowed to drag on in the end become a time bomb for them because indeed sooner or later something like this can definitely happen and I think Barcelona knows about this, it's just that they seem to turn a blind eye and don't really want to question their chaotic finances even though this has backfired on the club's performance and that's happening now.

It has only affected them in that they don't spend mad money and can't afford to buy a lot of players like they used to. Otherwise it's up to them, but I agree with you that it will definitely affect the Champions League. It's hard to talk about the team in the context of a possible win when they are in such a mess internally

Because in the end everything will definitely feel the same when performance in domestic competitions will affect other competitions, especially if it is talking  about mental problem unless they are really serious about focusing  o n one competition and not thinking about other competitions,  maybe this will be a little differentiator even though it is not too significant.
The current conditions for financial problems cannot be forced for Barcelona and the fans should also understand the current conditions but they are too demanding so that before Xavi made a decision, rumors about fan pressure that wanted Xavi to leave Barcelona because of his performance had been heard from a few weeks earlier.
At the moment it is actually a form of Xavi giving up and wanting to expect Barcelona to be better in the hands of a new coach but in the end it could backfire where events like those that have happened before during the Koeman era occur again.

I'm curious about how Dortmund will be able to stop PSV in the Champions League last 16 match because this Dutch team is so consistent in the domestic league and up to now they have recorded impressive results and are at the top of the standings for the highest Dutch competition. In the first leg, PSV had the first opportunity to host and here it was clear that Dortmund did not really benefit because they were the visiting team.

If PSV is able to steal the aggregate advantage at home then they only need to make it difficult for Dortmund in the second leg and I think it will be almost impossible for Dortmund to win in the away match. Moreover, Dortmund's job in the domestic league is increasingly difficult because they have not been able to penetrate the competition at the top and their inconsistency will also be quite doubtful in the match against PSV later. I think this is a match we should not miss.

Materially, Dortmund players are superior. But mentally Dortmund is still far from good. The last few matches in the domestic league have made them stumble. This is why high motivation is needed during the match against PSV, especially in the first leg when they have to visit PSV's home ground. For me it will be a huge pressure to secure a position in this preliminary round. On the other hand, PSV is very dominant in the domestic league, it is not impossible that Dortmund can be defeated easily and maintain their hopes of winning again in the second leg at Dortmund's home ground.

Dortmund is this season couldn't have a good performance like they had in the last season and they lost many points. Even Dortmund is far from the top of the table in the Bundesliga and they are not racing with Leverkusen or Bayern Munich for the title which means it is not as strong as the last season, But PSV is in a better situation and that's why I think PSV got much more chance to win the match and beat Dortmund.

There were no numerous things happened to the dortmund but the team can't keep its consistency but dortmund can at very least leave from the difficult situation when the club was being placed in the hell group like grop F. It was big surprise to see that dortmund to leave from there easily and it takes only a few weeks to make it happen. The performance from dortmund was really disappointed in bundesliga. Dortmund's current position in the top 4 is not what I had anticipated, especially considering their competition with Bayern and Liverpool for the title race. Im not feeling that happy by seeing the current performance of dortmund. Sometimes, it can be very wasteful club.

Dortmund is still able playing in the UCL which is shocking a lot of people. I thought that dortmund will have no chance anymore to play in the UCL but it was making it happened in a few weeks. Dortmund is not getting a strong club as its opponent. The club can try to enjoy any moment in the UCL this season.
Dortmund looks so weak but sometimes it can also perform crazily against the strong club. I can't even know the main reason why the performance of dortmund will be far better once it plays against the strong club.

Terzic has chance to bring dortmund to the further stage of EPL soon. This is going to give a very big impact to the club. The performance from the domestic league was sometimes affecting the performance from dortmund.

Borussia Dortmund's performance this season in the Bundesliga league is not that good, but Borussia Dortmund has managed to be in the 4th position in the Bundesliga league table. Even though Borussia Dortmund is not in very good form this season, I believe they will win against PSV to reach the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League.

It is true that sometimes domestic league competitions really influence a club's performance in other competitions, especially since the Champions League competition is quite a tough competition. With Barcelona's current condition, I think Barcelona will have difficulty playing matches in every round of the Champions League. All of these competitions are very important, therefore Barcelona also has to focus on the second competition. Maybe when Barcelina doesn't make it to the semi-finals, then Barcelona can focus on the domestic league to improve their performance to stay at the top level, hopefully next season Barcelona can improve their performance in La Liga and the Champions League will so that not be as chaotic as this season.

Financial conditions are very influential for the club itself and I hope that Barcelona can quickly recover their financial situation so that they can continue to achieve success and fans must also be aware that Barcelona's condition is no longer what it used to be, so as fans they should be wise and not put too much pressure on them to the coach until finally the coach left.

I'm sure you know the reason why Dortmund not really chasing all the titles in the UCL or in the bundesliga.
more precisely, Dortmund is one of the popular teams in the UCL and in bundesliga and this team only always focuses on developing new talents with quality skills and current efforts to provide experience for players to experience matches in the UCL, even if they fail, it certainly won't create problems for Dortmund because the team this just wants to continue producing quality players.
we can see from Dortmund efforts for several seasons that this team is not too focused on getting the title but is always trying to get the safest position to get a ticket to the UCL.

on the one hand, I won't be surprised if Dortmund loses the upcoming match against PSV, but for me it's something normal that Dortmund often does.
so we dont need to take Dortmund current achievements seriously and just enjoy what Dortmund is showing us.

With the way FC Barcelona is performing in La Liga currently, they even lost heavily to Villareal at Camp Nou with a 3-5 score in favor of Villareal. I know that Napoli is not also performing well this season, but there is a chance for Napoli to win against FC Barcelona in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.

Every defeat for Barcelona this season will be an advantage for their opponents and of course Napoli knows that Barcelona is not as promising as before. With this news, this Italian team will try to get rid of Barcelona. Moreover, it has been quite a long time since Barcelona reached the round of 16 and of course the frustration of defeat will continue to plague the Barcelona players so that Napoli doesn't need to worry about destroying them.

In general, Napoli is not better than Barcelona, but the number of defeats that Barcelona has suffered so badly recently in all competitions will certainly make it easier for Napoli to beat them over two legs. It would be another history if Barcelona were truly eliminated in the round of 16.

Xavi deciding to "leave" (which is basically just sacked at this point) was the last drop, they are not going to just end up playing good after this, the manager is gone too so why would they play any different. Xavi could maybe feel a bit more free, knowing that he is not going to be there for a long time.

I really hoped this experiment would go better, they won the title last year, and they are at last 16 at ucl this year, so if they were just a bit better then they would have kept him. Think like, maybe Madrid could be first, but Barcelona at second, that would have been fine. But Barcelona is doing awful at the league, and that is why they fired him, but it is sad to see a team turn from champions to this way, wish they did better and kept Xavi.

Xavi didn't choose to leave but I think Barcelona wanted to get him fired from the team the CEO of Barcelona made him to leave instead of getting fired Maybe there are some financial benefits for Barcelona in this and they obviously don't want to disrespect their legendary paler.
We can't forget that Xavi had a perfect performance in Barcelona in the last season, but now they should make a decision after to get the team ready for the match they are going to have in the Champions League against Napoli.

Even though Borussia Dortmund is not in very good form this season, I believe they will win against PSV to reach the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League.

They've seen some levels of love on the road but not when they play at home, they had some lose immediately after they lost to Bayern Munich.
Not entirely in the Bundesliga League Competition, they have found themselves though back to the top as they're ten points behind Bayern Munich and also a point behind Stuggart.
For the upcoming Champions League against PSV, they could do the damage, what's lacking is nothing but a natural striker for them. I can remember em creating these set of players into a beast.

Robert Lewandoski, Per Emerick Aubameyang, Erling Haaland, I was about calling Sebastian Haller but just got to my head he came from Ajax.

Recently i comment in the Europa League thread we are not gonna see again the Liverpool Klopp in Champions League after this decission of get out of the red team after finish this season, in someways is a little bit sad, but it was a very long journey, lets see where he goes after that and wich team of him we are gonna see in the nexts Champions Leagues we need trainers like him.

This news is true because Kloop has also given an explanation to the media about his departure from the Reds team. After hearing the news that Salah was currently injured, Liverpool also had to receive other bad news. The coach who has guided Liverpool for many years and has achieved good results will soon leave the end of this season is certainly a major blow for Liverpool
However, life will go on, Liverpool must continue to move forward even without coach Kloop and we just pray that Kloop's departure will not have a big impact on Liverpool's performance in the EPL and UCL next season.

Maybe this will be a tough thing for Liverpool because they will lose the coach who has been giving something extraordinary for them. But they should not be in this situation for too long, they must start preparing and see who the coach they will appoint to replace Jurgen Klopp. The time they have is long enough to consider who they will appoint.
In football, separation is a certain thing, sooner or later they will definitely be at the point where they have to end their cooperation. Liverpool are now experiencing this, for Klopp himself of course this is also a tough thing, but surely he must have considered before deciding to leave Liverpool.

Of course I can't even imagine how sad they all felt when Liverpool wanted to achieve successed with their coach for the umpteenth time they had to lose him this seasons. Yes Liverpool still have quite a long time to think about who is a suitable replacement like Kloop for the team and they also needs to consider first before making a mistake in appointing a coach because this could affect their performance.
Indeed, in the world of football, we will often be face with separation, whether it is player separation or also separation between coaches and players, but sometimes there are also separations that cause very deep sadness, making people feel sad too, but separation will always be there and must respect the decisions taken by the coach.

[Jatiluhung]

Because in the end everything will definitely feel the same when performance in domestic competitions will affect other competitions, especially if it is talking  about mental problem unless they are really serious about focusing  o n one competition and not thinking about other competitions,  maybe this will be a little differentiator even though it is not too significant.
The current conditions for financial problems cannot be forced for Barcelona and the fans should also understand the current conditions but they are too demanding so that before Xavi made a decision, rumors about fan pressure that wanted Xavi to leave Barcelona because of his performance had been heard from a few weeks earlier.
At the moment it is actually a form of Xavi giving up and wanting to expect Barcelona to be better in the hands of a new coach but in the end it could backfire where events like those that have happened before during the Koeman era occur again.

Although I am quite sad about Xavi's decision to finally give up and leave at the end of the season. But I respect his decision which shows that he is not selfish if it is for the good of the club he loves. Pressure from outside the club has indeed become stronger. And it is possible that Xavi's decision can slightly reduce the criticism that continues to rain down on him.

Tuchel reportedly gave a positive signal and is ready to replace Xavi next season. But I personally see that the problems at Barcelona are not just about the coach, but indeed their financial problems have also been protracted so that they also have difficulty competing in the transfer market. But I am sure that Xavi will give his best in the remainder of his coaching time at Barcelona.

Well I think he's making the right decision to leave while it's too early and allow the board to find solutions to the team other than staying back and attracting a bad record to his name and the club, if you notice you'll understand that the burden is too much on him and if he continues to stay beyond this season, with all the pressure from their rivals and that of angry fans, he could make lots of mistakes that would make Barca decline very bad. Well he's tried to get them this far, atleast he won a trophy with them, and the least he could do is help them qualify for the top 4.

 Tuchel is not a bad option though but the question is can he stand the pressure in barcelona, if you notice he's having quite a difficult challenge in the Bundesliga due to Leverkusen's form and I wonder how he's going to cope coaching Barcelona that's having financial crisis with low budget to spend like Munich did to sign Harry Kane, also if Leverkusen is giving him a tough time with the squad at Munich them how would he cope facing Real Madrid.

I think Tuchel's statement is just provoking the Munich leadership. Recently, Tuchel and the Munich leadership are dissatisfied with each other when he believes that his current squad is too thin and not strong enough to compete for championships in the arenas. This made the Honorary President of Munich, Uli Hoeness, angry and criticized him.
I think the problem of a team will lie in many places, not just in each coaching position. But to take immediate measures to appease fans and public opinion, the coach is always the first position targeted. With the current resources, I think Xavi has done his role well. I believe anyone in Xavi's position can only do that much, or even worse than him.

I don't know why everyone is loving Xavi so much. He has not done something out of the ordinary and he has not been able to bring Barcelona the results that Barcelona wanted without spending a lot of money. At the end of the day he did spend a lot of money and that was also in a time when Barcelona didn't have a good financial situation. He also spent a lot of money on players who did not deserve that kind of money as well.

Yes, I am talking about Robert Lewandowski.

Anyway, I don't think he has actually been able to do incredible stuff with Barcelona. He just got lucky that Real Madrid was not informed in that season. But now when the competition got harder, he's already giving up.

I also think the same thing that the problem is also their finances which might make Xavi leave Barcelona, but in my opinion the failure that Barcelona experienced if it was only because of the fight for the Spanish Super Cup or Copa Del Rey title which in my opinion is not more important doesn't make sense either, even though Barcelona has a chance in the UCL and also in Laliga even though it is a little difficult, but I think if it is only a small failure compared to its struggles last season it seems unbalanced.

I think Barcelona should look for a better replacement than Tuchel because I think there are still many coaches out there who are more suitable, apart from that I also want to see how Xavi displays Barcelona's game in the UCL and Laliga until the end of the season, I hope he gets results which was quite satisfying before leaving Barcelona and who knows, Barcelona will be able to reach the semi-finals of the UCL, no one knows that everything can be achieved as long as there is hard work from the team in their current main squad. I hope their financial problems will also heal soon after Xavi leaves so they can compete in the transfer market to get new players in the main squad.
