UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Mustang Shelby]

Galatasaray holds a comfortable 3-0 lead from the away game. The performance from galatasaray was far better compared when it was facing Zalgiris in the previous match. Galatasaray was dominating the game from the first second.  Despite several good attacks, Olimpija could not break Galatasaray's defence. The defensive line of galatasaray was really solid during the game.  Olimpija needs a miracle to eliminate Galatasaray in the second leg.

I agree that Olimpija needs a miracle to beat Galatasaray in Istanbul, but I don't think Galatasaray's defense is very good. Galatasaray defender made many mistakes and goalkeeper Muslera and Olimpija forwards faced each other in many positions. Lucky for them, they could not take advantage of these positions against Galatasaray. We can see a similar score in the second game.

Miracles are hard for Olimpija to get in the second leg after they were defeated by Galatasaray in the first leg with a big score, especially since the second leg will be played at the Galatasaray headquarters. Galatasaray will continue its dominance over Olimpija in the second leg, the strength that Galatasaray has is very difficult to match with Olimpija after seeing the two teams meet in the first leg.
Olimpija will certainly exert all his abilities when playing in the second leg. Maybe Galatasaray made a mistake at their own base due to the defender's lack of discipline in guarding the defense which made Olimpija win in the second leg but it will be difficult for them to score 4 goals at Galatasaray headquarters.

Against Galatasaray, his job is completely dependent on miracles. Despite losing 3-0 in the first match, they showed a performance that I liked. They tried so hard, they got into positions. Their misfortune was their lack of finishing skills. If they had been a little better in finishing, they could have hoped for the rematch. Galatasaray was also superior in terms of squad quality. Favorite team won the first match.

Despite that many teams have built up their squads for next season's Champions League and their domestic leagues, currently, in my own view, I have not yet seen any squad that is still better than Manchester City's squad, so thinking that Manchester City can't win the Champions League next season again is something I can't easily predict because the competition has not yet started to see their performances. The only squad I can currently use to compare Manchester City's squad standards is Bayern Munich, which I still believe doesn't have Manchester City's number of quality players. But the truth is that any other club can be the winner of next season's Champions League, but for now, their chances of winning the Champions League compared to Manchester City are not great. Let's wait and see how their performance will be when the Champions League starts.

although several players have been confirmed to leave the Man City squad, their team does have enough good quality players to be consistent this season both in the domestic league and in the Champions League. but I feel that Man City's competitors in the Champions League are not Munich, they are still struggling up front. Man City's competitors might as well be from the Premier League. maybe Arsenal or United. these two teams are quite ready to compete this season.

In as much as Bayern Munich seriously need a striker like Harry Kane, the English national team captain also needs a club like Bayern in other to crown his footballing career with trophies.
Reports has it that the player and club has reached personal agreements but has been hindered to finally sign the transfer papers by Tottenham Hotspur's club chairman who is yet to consent to the player's departure. I think Harry Kane can do better in forcing his way out of the club and it's best to do it now to save his career

In the next few years Tottenham will never get better if they continue still with the chairman, they have no hopes of winning a trophy.
Rejecting such offer from Bayern Munich wasn't expected if the player has agreement with the Bayern Munich. The offer brought was a good one yet they still decided turning down the offer.
I really want to see him winning a trophy finally but all hopes this season are not looking well for him to win if he considers staying further. Thomas Tuchel has pressured so hard for Kane he really want to get it done

Tottenham's situation is never been ideal even they bought few tops ranked coached, but they are not able to have anything impressive in last few years with this all mostly now feeling change of management can bring positive change but how is this possible nothing is sure right now we have two big headaches in transfer window with Mbappé to Real Madrid and then Harry Kane to Bayern Munich and most chances these both are not going to be ended as fans wants because no one having any regard about fans everyone is looking for his own interest and personal ego.

Harry Kane wants to win trophies but while he was at his prime he never tries to change his club which is also currently case because if he has done this all years ago then surely he has many trophies under his name and also having tag of one of the best striker with trophies, but he is now looking for the change, but it's not happening as he wants.

I'm looking forward to Panathiniakos vs Marseille. Although Marseille is the favorite, I expect them to struggle against Panathiniakos on the road. Marseille's offensive line is strong and I don't think they will have problems scoring goals.
Rangers, on the other hand, have to win against Servette. Servette is a team in form, but there is definitely a power difference between the two teams. I think there will be plenty of goals in the match and both teams will be eager to score.

Rangers and Marseille are without question the favourites in today's games. I think they will be the winners. But the third game between Slovan Bratislava and Maccabi Haifa makes me doubt who can win. Haifa probably has a slight advantage, but they play away, so it's hard for me to say who is stronger.

After all, this is the first leg and even if they can't win this one, at least they will still have a great chance for the second leg in a home match later. Thus, then at least the famous teams will probably be favored to win in this round, because in addition to them being famous teams but at least they have also become teams that are used to difficult competitions like this. So yes, especially about Marseille even though the opponent is also not a weak team but still, I believe that Marseille will be able to qualify.

Now Bayern Munich's task is to move quickly to make a final decision before the season starts because when the season starts Harry Kane doesn't want to think about that anymore. The indications for the time limit mentioned by Harry Kane have been there and now Bayern Munich must make a decision quickly so that they can get what is being prioritized before the season starts. And I think Harry Kane is quite wise in responding to this.

Bayern Munich will waste many times if at the end they agree a demand price from Tottenham. It will help them to have Harry Kane but they will not give Kane enough time for preseason trainings. It will be loophole for understanding and combination of players in the team with Harry Kane.

Missing one or some early matches will not be problems but Bayern Munich will not have best Harry Kane for this season.

I have never doubted the strength of Manchester City even though they have just been left by several of their top players, Pep Guardiola knows what to do in order to keep the quality of his team consistent. With the quality of the players that Manchester City has this season coupled with the arrival of several new faces after being successfully brought in in the transfer market, Manchester City is still in the ranks of the team that is the favorite to win the race.

Perhaps Arsenal and Manchester United will be Manchester City toughest competitors this season after the two rival clubs in the EPL made major changes to their teams. I also don't exclude Bayern Munich, even though they haven't managed to sign Kane yet. Tuchel's squad is still able to compete with other elite clubs even though they failed to bring in a new striker after the transfer market closed.

It is reported that Bayern Munchen have made a fourth bid to Tottenham management with a total of 94 million pounds, this will be their last offer and I think Tottenham will agree. This will be a step forward for Harry Kane career, at least he will feel the domestic league trophy namely the Bundesliga champion. Something that is impossible if Kane stays at Tottenham, because the EPL competition is very tight.

Even though it cannot be a long-term investment for Bayern Munchen, at least Kane can help them fight for the UCL trophy. And the impact of Kane departure will be felt directly by Tottenham, it is possible that they will fill the bottom of the standings.

Man City's competitors might as well be from the Premier League. maybe Arsenal or United. these two teams are quite ready to compete this season.

Agree, so far it can be said that Man City is still strong. The reason is that Pep Guardiola has expressed his desire to retain players Kyle Walker and Bernardo Silva in the Man City squad this season because according to him the two players still have an important role in the Man City squad. Even though several of their star players left, I still believe in Pep Guardiola's ingenuity to build a stronger squad.

When it comes to the Champions League, I would compare Man City to Real Madrid rather than the English league team you mentioned. Man City's competitor for the Champions League this season is Real Madrid because so far Real Madrid has made major improvements by bringing in several new stars, and until now Mbappe's arrival is expected to complete his squad this season to win the Champions League trophy. And I believe that eventually Mbappe will go to Real Madrid.

We cannot yet give the fact that any team will be consistent in the Champion League group phase starting still long so I think it cannot be determined even though Manchester City is widely favored.
We never know how their game rotation will be in the future, of course every team has the desire to get the UCL trophy this is not easy and this is difficult to guess.
You said the other contenders aren't from other leagues apart from the English league, so what about Real Madrid and Barcelona? And teams from Serie A can't compete?

[Doell]

Manchester City got their first trophy this season, maybe they still have a chance to be the favorites team again in next season, if there are no changes in their squad. But I think they can certainly reach the top 8 or even semi-finals, but also to win again I think it's too early because there are many big clubs who have pocketed tickets for next season. We can't underestimate them either especially Inter, although they unlucky this season but they can reach to the finals, it's a sign of how strong they are this season and maybe next season they can showing more optimal.

The Manchester City squad has indeed proven a great, because they were very solid in the previous season. So yes, for now there is no squad that looks better rather than Manchester City because this competition has not started yet right, and we don't know the performance improvements of several clubs in this new season. Bayern Munich squad looks good, but they still haven't got a reliable striker. Despite that their defense is probably looks perfect at the moment, as they have already signed several players in the summer transfer window.

Miracles are hard for Olimpija to get in the second leg after they were defeated by Galatasaray in the first leg with a big score, especially since the second leg will be played at the Galatasaray headquarters. Galatasaray will continue its dominance over Olimpija in the second leg, the strength that Galatasaray has is very difficult to match with Olimpija after seeing the two teams meet in the first leg.
Olimpija will certainly exert all his abilities when playing in the second leg. Maybe Galatasaray made a mistake at their own base due to the defender's lack of discipline in guarding the defense which made Olimpija win in the second leg but it will be difficult for them to score 4 goals at Galatasaray headquarters.

Olimpija can be expected to score goals and win the second leg at Rams Park Stadyumu, but considering Galatasaray have 3 goals in hand it is certainly difficult for Olimpija to score 4 goals or more without conceding. The Olimpija probability is so low that I think Galatasaray will be quite comfortable in the second leg. In fact I could say that Galatasaray has a bigger chance of winning the match at home than Olimpija, but something different can certainly happen during a match.

If you look at the stats for the first leg, I don't think Olimpija was lucky even though they had a few chances. The match was very even because the two teams attacked each other, but Galatasaray had a good finishing so they managed to score 3 goals.

[Slow death]

yesterday's games had some expected results, such as in the case of galatasaray's game against olinpija, in this game galatasaray did very well, with 16 shots galatasaray managed 9 shots on target, this is an excellent use, possession of ball was something more disputed, with 49% for olinpija and 51% for galatasaray. by the highlights of the game, olinpija wasted some good opportunities to score a goal but olinpija's problem is in selfishness, each olinpija player seemed to want attention, the goal that olinpija scored was a very beautiful goal but the olinpija player fouled then the goal was disallowed, then galatasaray was very close to getting the second goal but failed, then there were 2 more opportunities for galatasaray to score but they wasted again

after wasting many good opportunities to score a goal, galatasaray managed to score the second goal, and then again wasted more other opportunities, then they scored 2 goals that were canceled, galatasaray could have left this game with more than 3 goals and would go to second leg much more comfortable, but unfortunately they failed a lot and the opponent couldn't score a goal, so in the second leg it's certain that galatasaray will strive to score 1 or 2 goals to be more comfortable. I also don't see any chance of olinpija moving on to another phase

Braga also won without any difficulty, scored 3 goals and did not concede a single goal, with this victory Braga is close to moving to another stage, I doubt that Braga will lose by more than 3 goals and not score a goal in the second leg. another team that also convincingly won was PSV, they scored 4 goals and conceded only 1 goal, I believe that in the second leg PSV will also win, I doubt very much that they will lose by many goals. so I see PSV moving into another phase. the question will be whether these 3 teams will be able to go far in the champions league, I particularly doubt it very much

As the Manchester City team managed to secure two trophy victories last season. As such, the confidence level will be high among every player in the team. From that point of view, we can expect good things from Manchester City this season.

Which player? Kyle and Silva already confirmed stay in manchester city this year. I think that city is only willing non beneficial player like cancelo. Barcelona has been linked to him but no answer from manchester city. All the elite clubs gonna be competitors for manchester city in UCL.
We will have some new fresh name like newcastle. I don't even think arsenal will able to go to the last 16. Arsenal was always showing poor performance when it came to the european competition like UCL.
Arsenal was getting win streak in EPL last season but it's easily kicked out from UEL last season against a mediocre club. Arsenal has been buying some expensive players from chelsea and westham. It's not giving guarantee if arsenal's will able to compete with some powerful clubs in UCL.
The performance from united and arsenal are still questionable at this moment. The opening match of EPL has not yet commenced. We don't know how good arsenal and MU right now in the real match.

[AakZaki]

~snip~ The same is possible for Mbappe. If he doesn't want to stay in Paris, they should allow the transfer of the player.

PSG have eliminated any form associated with Mbappe. I saw on social media that all the shirts in the official booth had been taken again. In addition, the image of Mbappe in the stadium has also been removed. So it looks like Mbappe is indeed going to leave, it's just that they are waiting for the best moment. So even though it is currently in difficult conditions, it seems that it will end soon.

So yes, especially about Marseille even though the opponent is also not a weak team but still, I believe that Marseille will be able to qualify.

Panathinaikos is not a serious opponent for Marseille. They are teams from very different quality leagues and Marseille will probably win this game not to be too tired in the return home match. Although this is foodball and there are often surprises. But I think that in this game everything will be predictable.

I just remember that Marseille under new manager Marcelino García Toral still required more time to adapt and it showed from their pre season matches result that i have to says Marseille performance isn't too impressive under him and the latest is they had just lose from Bundesliga team Leverkusen so although Marseille is the favourite but i was a bit doubt they can able to beat Panathiniakos especially if we compared to recent performance from both teams i think Panathiniakos still slightly better than Marseille

At home Panathiniakos actually not too strong because some of teams can able to beat them and the latest is Rayo who can able to beat them with slim score and regarding this match Marseille is the favourite with odds @2.04 and Panathiniakos @3.75 but with the current performance from both teams which still not stable i personally more prefer to pick draw with odds @2.95 or just like you said both teams to scores seems good for this match

It is almost certain that Mbappe will leave PSG but he is not leaving this season, he will stay with PSG for one more season and then leave PSG. Since Mbappe will be seen with PSG for one more season, it is not right for PSG to remove Mbappe from everything so early. Perhaps PSG management is behaving like this towards Mbappe because of anger or contempt towards Mbappe. Mbappe was highly valued by PSG and was declared one of the most powerful players by PSG. Mbappé is going to leave PSG ignoring these things such as high salary and adequate facilities. PSG management may not be able to accept this, which is why they are removing Mbappé from everywhere before Mbappé leaves. With such a bad relationship with PSG, it is now to be seen how Mbappe stays at PSG for one more season.

Nasser Al Khelaifi wants to sell Mbappe even earlier. But Mbappe will not leave the club. By deleting the picture of Mbappe in the stadium, Nasser Al Khelaifi has hinted that he will no longer include Mbappe in the squad. However, if Mbappe wants to stay at the club it would be a shame. I don't know why a star player like Mbappe doesn't want to leave PSG after being so humiliated. Clubs like Real Madrid and Liverpool are interested in Mbappe. They will pay high wages. However, they are not getting any response from Mbappe. However, Nasser Al Khelaifi has made it clear that Mbappe will not be in the squad next season.
