UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[giammangiato]

No one has won the Champions League more times in recent years than Real.
Unlike most clubs that play in the Champions League with the desire to achieve the best possible result, for Real players anything but winning the Champions League is a failure and that is the main difference between Real and other clubs in the Champions League.
Real has a winning mentality and self-confidence that other clubs in Europe do not have in European competitions.
Real will have a very strong team in the Champions League next season, the defense is almost the same, Bellingham is coming to the midfield, another quality striker Joselu has arrived, and Vinicius and Rodrygo are also great strikers.
Even after Ronaldo's departure, it was said that Real would not be able to find a replacement for him, but it turned out not to be the case.

That's right, remember that Real Madrid practically won everything last year and that they also often win the Champions League (at least in recent years). Honestly I always give her as a favorite as a team because she's solid, a real tank

[emrecemsan]

I hope you have watch the Champions League final between Chelsea and Manchester City, the city dominated the whole match, but a mistake cost them to lose that cup because they didn't expect goal from Chelsea and that's how they lost the League cup to Chelsea. So what am I saying, Chelsea don't have much changes in their current squad and yet they win that important matches and Barcelona could win the Champions League if they are lucky as they have good players that are very talented and good with skills and new young players as well, expect good things to happen to Barcelon next season.

You're an optimistic one, arent you? Picturing Barcelona doing a Chelsea in the forthcoming season? Should that transpire, I'd be stupefied - maybe even share an image of me consuming a pineapple pizza, an equal terror, right? But you could be onto a valid point. The game of football is an unpredictable spectacle - much like a video game steered by a glitchy controller. Sudden twists, radical turns - its all in the game. The young guns of Barcelona might just shine, requiring insightful mentoring more than sheer luck. Do you have insights on their path to triumph?

I agree that this is really optimism. Because the work Chelsea did back then wasn't an easy one at all. The probability of it to happen was quite low compared to the biggest title contenders in that season. But Tuchel's tactical choices helped them somehow get a really surprising result. But as I said it isn't easy and not common in the Champions League for years.

Coming back to Barcelona, they aren't in a very promising situation for the Champions League yet before anything else. As long as Xavi doesn't change his system even a bit I don't see Barcelona doing the same thing Chelsea did. Barcelona players are really capable of playing bigger but obviously it won't happen like this just as it didn't for the recent two years.

After 7 years finally Arsenal will return to champion league again and i am curious how far they can go in this competition because on season 2017 Arsenal still trained by their legendary manager Arsène Wenger and they were very impressive at group stage even at that time Arsenal can able to qualified with unbeatable status and being an group champion because finish at first place but round of 16 is compeletely messed up for them because their journey have to stopped because on that stage they were eliminate by Bayern Munich with aggregate 10-2

If i am not mistaken group drawing will be held at August 31 and Arsenal will into pot 2 with Manchester United, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Dortmund and Arsenal will potentially be in a group with a strong team like Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich or maybe PSG because these teams status has into pot 1 but Arteta seems very confident Arsenal will be qualified to the next round but he said the current squad still not enough to compete to champion league so that's why Arteta still attempts to gets several players this summer

I don't expect much from the Gunners in the Champions League, especially if their senior players leave. but actually, this team is a team that is quite strong and able to provide resistance to any team that becomes its opponent. after all, the system that Arteta implemented was an offensive system. so, you can be sure that every match they will play will offer an exciting match.
IMO, there are unique things that are actually rarely noticed from Arsenal's playing style. although, we tend to see Arteta not changing his formation with 4-3-3.
but actually, what is shown by Arsenal is very unique with its characteristics. every player rotation, and how they play is a tricky system. the intensity of the Gunner players is very high, we can even see it is not uncommon for Zinchenko to play as a winger or even as a midfielder and Tomiyasu is no exception. these two players, greatly influenced the style of play from Arsenal. The build-up that was built from the back players, was done quickly.

So, at least Arsenal should be able to qualify from the group phase. However, we don't know who will be their opponent yet and we'll have to wait and see after the draw. I just hope that the player Arteta will bring in is an ideal choice for The Gunner's squad. so that whichever team will be their opponent later, Arsenal will still do their job well.

At the moment, the most interesting thing is to find out who will be in which pot before the group stage draw. So far, the compositions of the first two pots are practically known, and the most unpleasant thing for me is that Barcelona and Bayern cannot be in the same group  
Dortmund not only ruined their dreams for the title, but also prevented us from enjoying another series of confrontations between Bayern and Barcelona

Pep said that caused by he knew that if the come of gundogan to the barcelona will be adding lots of power to the barcelona. Gundogan is now a sensational player. The fact that if pep has been also releasing the new statement he is wanna fighting against barcelona to keep gundogan in manchester city. The contract extension was already prepared by manchester city for him. I hope that if city will fulfil what gundogan wanted from the club. Barcelona sees him as a player that can push the club to be even better for the upcoming season since busquets has been leaving as free agent.
I hope he will always stay in manchester city yet gundogan has said if he is not yet deciding his future. I hope he will agree with the contract extension offered by city soon.
Pep really wants him to stay longer in the club.

I am not sure I am fully up to date, but I think that the problem is that Manchester City still doesn't want to give him two years but only one year and Gundogan does not agree with that. When Pep says that Gundogan would strengthen Barcelona and he would make that team better in reality it could also be a tactic to support Gudogan in signing a good contract elsewhere, namely Barcelona here. If Manchester City wants him I think there wouldn't be any hesitation to offer him the two years he wants. I don't know why they haven't done it yet.

Currently, nothing is sure about Gundogan because we have three teams which are fighting for him, and he is still not clear where to go first Barcelona then we have Arsenal and then Bayern Munich but who will be winner at the end we have to wait for the all updates with most chances Arsenal can steal this show because Barcelona is also having few other players as target which can replace Gudogan with Bayern Munich and Arsenal could be potential runner for this transfer.

Manchester City is looking for another season but 32 years old German star wants long deal which is possible in Arsenal because they are also having some trouble in last season and with the arrival of him they could be felt strong enough.

Ok now we have an answer to that question. I thought Gudogan would also try to stay at Manchester City because for him personally Barcelona isn't the next step in his career, but it is something new. Maybe that is what he wanted or maybe Manchester City didn't offer him what he wanted. Barcelona still doesn't look very strong to me. They can compete for the La Liga title, but in the Champions League there is still something missing in my opinion. At least Gundogan can become the boss in midfield and contribute with his control and passing. It is not a bad transfer for Barcelona, but let's see whether it was a bad transfer for Gundogan after the first season.

It is not a bad transfer for Barcelona, but let's see whether it was a bad transfer for Gundogan after the first season.

The latest news confirms that Gundogan has officially joined Barcelona on a two-year contract until June 2025, as seen in the recent post by Gundogan's agent, Fabrizio Romano, on Twitter. This puts an end to the rumors regarding his future destination after failing to reach a contract extension agreement with Manchester City.

It seems that Barcelona has acquired the right player to fill the void left by Busquets, who is reportedly set to join Inter Miami. With the guidance of Xavi, whom Gundogan admires, I am eagerly anticipating his performances at Barcelona in the upcoming season.

[ginsan]

Regarding financial problems, I personally don't see Barcelona experiencing these problems because after all, how can it be when Barcelona has financial problems but last season Barcelona was able to get several star players in the transfer market. But the truth is, Barcelona still can't get the expected results in the Champions League. Therefore, I wonder how much more money Barcelona will need to spend, because last season Barcelona spent a lot of money even when the status of the club was experiencing financial problems.

At this stage I consider that the work done by Barcelona's management in the last transfer season was successful perfectly where they managed to reclaim the Laliga trophy from Real Madrid. Yes, Barcelona's finances were not good enough at that time, but look at the results they got and it was all thanks to the hard work done by Barcelona's management.  So, for next season, maybe Barcelona's target will be bigger, namely in the Champions League where Xavi will change the Barcelona squad in the transfer window by bringing in many star players and one of them is Gundogan, who they have managed to get. Gundogan arrival will have a significant meaning in Barcelona strength in the next season.

Indeed, competition in the Champions League is the toughest thing for every team because every team that competes in the Champions League is the best team in various leagues. I'm sure that Barcelona will probably go further in the Champions League next season.

The beauty about the UEFA Champions League is that it doesnt matter where a team is from or if it low rank or not financially rich. There will be lots of upsets and lots of drama too. Meanwhile the play offs path will commence next week tuesday (JUNE 27,2023).

[Litzki1990]

Real Madrid will not get Karim Benzema next season but the club acknowledge that he is one of the best legends of the moment. Football fans have enjoyed his game so much by which he has been able to establish him in the names of their greatest icon players. So finding someone new to replace him will not be an easy for the selectors.

Karim Benzema's absence may not affect the team much as Real Madrid have a good combination in the squad to fill that gap. One of Real Madrid's strengths is that they can find talented players. At the moment, Real Madrid has a number of young talented players along with some experienced players who score at difficult moments of the match and contribute a lot to the team's victory. The current team will be well ahead of the next season's Champions League trophy.

Yes, after all, when Benzema came to Real Madrid, Benzema did not quickly have a very good performance like now. Therefore, with time, of course, Real Madrid will have players who can become team legends as well. So, losing Benzema is basically not all that big of a problem for the team, indeed for the near future at least his absence can have a little influence on the team's performance. But of course, this will not last long, because Real Madrid will also try to have other great players and of course to support their performance in the Champions League as well.

When a new player joins Real Madrid, it must be understood that the player is undoubtedly a very talented player because Real Madrid always values talented players. And whichever player joins Real Madrid, the player's career will go to another stage. Just like Karim Benzema was not the current Karim Benzema when Casemiro joined Real Madrid but Casemiro was not the current Casemiro he was made and Real Madrid made him. That means Real Madrid can produce players. If a player has talent, Real Madrid will surely make him a skilled player. I believe all the budding young stars currently performing at Real Madrid will one day become the best stars in the world.

This Barcelona we see is pretty much far from Barcelona in the last years because they don't have any financial stability and they can't hire the players they really need. Instead, Barcelona can only old players like Gudogan for their team, this way they can pay less money and this Barcelona cannot have much hope even for the champions league because simply they don't have enough money to invest in it like other teams do in Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Every team tries to get one of the best players in the team but the strategy of selecting players is different from team to team and each team selects different categories of players. In this case, Real Madrid selects players in their own strategy.  And in keeping with the rest of their players, they recruit players of the same category and train them to form a strong team. That is why Real Madrid is always a good team and enjoys most of the match with winning

[Iroh]

It seems that Barcelona has acquired the right player to fill the void left by Busquets, who is reportedly set to join Inter Miami. With the guidance of Xavi, whom Gundogan admires, I am eagerly anticipating his performances at Barcelona in the upcoming season.

It does seem Barcelona has acquired the right player to fill in the shoes of Sergio Busquets. I too am anticipating his performance at Barcelona in the upcoming season.
Gundogan is a player with so much experience under his belt and he’s bringing all that to Barcelona. It would be interesting to see in what direction would Barcelona take with Gundogan on board. I think they have a good shot of retaining the La Liga title. I think Gundogan would fit it nicely with the squad.

[Docnaster]

I hope you have watch the Champions League final between Chelsea and Manchester City, the city dominated the whole match, but a mistake cost them to lose that cup because they didn't expect goal from Chelsea and that's how they lost the League cup to Chelsea. So what am I saying, Chelsea don't have much changes in their current squad and yet they win that important matches and Barcelona could win the Champions League if they are lucky as they have good players that are very talented and good with skills and new young players as well, expect good things to happen to Barcelon next season.

You're an optimistic one, arent you? Picturing Barcelona doing a Chelsea in the forthcoming season? Should that transpire, I'd be stupefied - maybe even share an image of me consuming a pineapple pizza, an equal terror, right? But you could be onto a valid point. The game of football is an unpredictable spectacle - much like a video game steered by a glitchy controller. Sudden twists, radical turns - its all in the game. The young guns of Barcelona might just shine, requiring insightful mentoring more than sheer luck. Do you have insights on their path to triumph?

As long as Xavi doesn't change his system even a bit I don't see Barcelona doing the same thing Chelsea did. Barcelona players are really capable of playing bigger but obviously it won't happen like this just as it didn't for the recent two years.

The 2020/21 UEFA Champions League final between Manchester City and Chelsea was a very contentious final that both teams never had a breather from the first kick of the ball till the final whistle.
Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea was a very strong side that was delivering fantastic football at that time. They weren't an easy side to play against and I think it's totally disrespectful to Chelsea as a club for anyone to think that they were outplayed in that very match

That is why Real Madrid is always a good team and enjoys most of the match with winning

I don't think that this is true. Real Madrid don't recruit and train players. Instead Real Madrid buys made players i.e players that are outstanding. If you are not a superstar forget it,you will never play in Real Madrid. All players that was bought by Real Madrid has already made names before Madrid bought them. For example,Madrid is going for Mbappe who has already made his future very bright and is among the world classic players. We saw how Mabppe performance was superb in the world cup finals. A player might come to Real Madrid for the first time and might not perform well,doesn't mean that he is not a good player. The problem is that he might have not understood Madrid game pattern but the moment he understands then he will perform brilliantly.

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid started to seem like they will just make do with Joselu transfer in the attacking line for now. Because they are most likely to sign Mbappe when he is available and they might not want to splurge on any other striker now. But they can actually still sign a much more skilled player for a favourable amount. Because they need to think of the Champions League as well.

I don't feel like Joselu would be enough in the attacking line for being very competitive for the Champions League title. Ancelotti would like to have a reliable attacking line there I assume. As I said before they should think of Vlahovic as an alternative too. He can really be great for the team and Mbappe's arrival also wouldn't put him in a difficult spot in the lineup.

The beauty about the UEFA Champions League is that it doesnt matter where a team is from or if it low rank or not financially rich. There will be lots of upsets and lots of drama too. Meanwhile the play offs path will commence next week tuesday (JUNE 27,2023).

The Champions League always gives surprises in every season, even now we have seen a row of team names from several respective leagues that will play in the Champions League next season. From the English League there is Manchester city as the defending champion and Arsenal, manchester united and Newcastle united who have been absent from this highest competition for a long time. I think the competition will be more interesting to see the list of teams that will compete in the Champions League next season. Especially Newcastle united they performed quite impressive in the EPL this season where they were able to get rid of big teams to disturb them like Liverpool and Chelsea.  Now, the presence of Newcastle United in the Champions League next season is also believed to make the Champions League even more interesting. Because if Newcastle United is able to maintain the trend of moving forward in every round, chances are that it will be quite difficult for us to predict which team will win the UCL trophy next season. From representatives of Laliga There is Real Madrid which they are highly favored for next season because Real Madrid did a great job in this season transfer window by bringing in some good quality players.

[Iroh]

I don't feel like Joselu would be enough in the attacking line for being very competitive for the Champions League title. Ancelotti would like to have a reliable attacking line there I assume. As I said before they should think of Vlahovic as an alternative too. He can really be great for the team and Mbappe's arrival also wouldn't put him in a difficult spot in the lineup.

Joselu most likely won’t be enough for the attacking line of Real Madrid. Supposing he injury that would take him out of action for weeks or worse, the rest of the season. They would need to be ready to compete healthily against other top clubs foot the title of the champions league cup.
No doubt, he’s a great player but I doubt he would be able to fill the really big shoes left by Benzema leaving the club. I don’t think the club was quite ready for Benzema’s departure from the club.

The beauty about the UEFA Champions League is that it doesnt matter where a team is from or if it low rank or not financially rich. There will be lots of upsets and lots of drama too. Meanwhile the play offs path will commence next week tuesday (JUNE 27,2023).

This is indeed not wrong, because ranking in the domestic league does not always determine which team can do better in the Champions League even though most teams that won the Champions League are ranked well in their own domestic league. However, the Champions League always presents competition that is worth enjoying because there are many teams from different countries and if the play off schedule is very close, I would not miss that either because it is also enjoyable to watch.

The latest news confirms that Gundogan has officially joined Barcelona on a two-year contract until June 2025, as seen in the recent post by Gundogan's agent, Fabrizio Romano, on Twitter. This puts an end to the rumors regarding his future destination after failing to reach a contract extension agreement with Manchester City.

A bit surprised to see that gundogan was accepting barcelona's offer instead of staying even longer in the manchester city caused by it has so many problems that already occured.
IMO, if gundogan must have been staying even longer in manchester city rather than going to the barcelona but since he has been determining his choice and ther's nothing can be done about that. good luck for gundogan caused by he was going to the barcelona.
Wish you luck.

It seems that Barcelona has acquired the right player to fill the void left by Busquets, who is reportedly set to join Inter Miami. With the guidance of Xavi, whom Gundogan admires, I am eagerly anticipating his performances at Barcelona in the upcoming season.

Gundogan has become the main target by xavi. As far as i know that xavi has not yet found the new player that can play as good as gundogan in mid. Manchester city is still having kovacic as a replacement for gundogan.
That's why pep must not be scary with the gone of gundogan to the barcelona at this moment. Pep must accept it.

Gundogan will go to the barcelona with free agent

[Ndabagi01]

No one has won the Champions League more times in recent years than Real.
Unlike most clubs that play in the Champions League with the desire to achieve the best possible result, for Real players anything but winning the Champions League is a failure and that is the main difference between Real and other clubs in the Champions League.
Real has a winning mentality and self-confidence that other clubs in Europe do not have in European competitions.
Real will have a very strong team in the Champions League next season, the defense is almost the same, Bellingham is coming to the midfield, another quality striker Joselu has arrived, and Vinicius and Rodrygo are also great strikers.
Even after Ronaldo's departure, it was said that Real would not be able to find a replacement for him, but it turned out not to be the case.

Ronaldo may have left Real Madrid, but he is still the best thing that has ever happened to the club. I'm not dismissing the performances of other great players, such as Vinicius and Rodrygo, who are currently their finest players, but their work rate performances cannot be compared to Cristiano Ronaldo's. He has done a lot for the club, particularly in European competitions.

I'm not sure how long it will take someone at Real Madrid to beat his record. That zeal they developed as a squad during his time at Real Madrid is what keeps them going today with such confidence. That is one of the factors that has kept Real Madrid flying high in the Champions League despite the intense competition in the league.
