UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

Benzema was not always become the solution for the forward position of real madrid. If the club was not doing regeneration and what's happening with real madrid if benzema announced to retire in the future?
Benzema's era in real madrid already finished. We must move on. Ancellotti has found someone who is capable enough in helping real madrid as good as benzema. Bellingham has become the best recruitmen by real madrid so far.

He has been fulfilling people's expectation by helping the club in winning the game in the difficult condition. Benzema is the past story of real madrid. Real Madrid has recruited skilled players, even though some are injured.
Real madrid was not being trapped under benzema's name. He was great striker ever owned by real madrid but time flies and everything must also follow the situation that is happening right now.

Did you mean madrid need to buy mbappe?

You are right, Real Madrid has carried out regeneration to build a squad with young players. Vini, Rodrygo and Bellingham are Real Madrid's future projects. Just look at Real Madrid's performance in carrying out regeneration where they make this development even better in every transfer window. Even this season, Real Madrid has strengthened their midfield and they have succeeded in doing this. So this winter Real Madrid can prioritize looking for good quality stickers to help them achieve their targets this season.

Benzema is old and often suffers from ongoing injuries, so it is only right that Benzema go to an easier league. Real Madrid management and Ancelotti are focusing on young players to form a stronger squad for the upcoming season. Even though this season they only rely on Joselu, their big contribution can be seen from players who are projected for the long term, such as Bellingham. Joselu for temporary before Real Madrid recruited Mbappe.

Real madrid just need to buy a young talented striker. Mbappe has already projected to be the most suitable replacement for real madrid.  The club needs to wait for him until he will be able to leave from there with a free agent instead of paying a half of billion money for him.
Real madrid is slowly but surely rebuilding the puzzle against after so many great players have been leaving from there. It's now the time for real madrid to slowly getting the best players in forming another los galacticos again.
I believe that the memory of Los Galacticos winning the UCL three times in a row under Zidane's guidance is something that can be recalled by anyone with great clarity. Real madrid is trying to build the same thing like that.
We will see that who's gonna be the new striker for real madrid in january. I think that ancellotti has some names on his consideration.

Anything about PSG is still remain unsafe until PSG would able to create huge point gaps to the competitors. There are still some clubs like newcastle and acmilan that would be the main threats for PSG.
It's caused by milan and newcastle potentially to finish at the first and second place. This is just the first match day. There will be more to come soon. PSG needs to well prepared to face acmilan and newcastle caused by these clubs are far strongers compared with dortmnud at this moment.
Psg may also lose points when the club was facing those clubs. I hope that if enrique would have learned a lot from the previous match.

I agree with you, all teams have just played one match of course we can't conclude who is better and we have to wait until the 3-4 match
PSG indeed started with a good start but it was a home match to prove that they are one of the best, they must be able to win away games

Keep in mind that currently the competition in the Champions League is to continue to qualify, so the solution is to win, whether narrowly or by just 1 goal. Like it or not, Newcastle and AC Milan have each suffered 1 loss, whether they are considered as strong or not as strong as last season. Then PSG took first place and in the next match against Newcastle, even though the final result was a draw, PSG still secured 1 match while Newcastle lost 2 important matches. That's the scheme if you still feel safe from a draw. The limited number of matches remaining means the clubs in the UCL need to put pressure on themselves. Because here the competition for group winners and runners up becomes a test of a club's motivation.

[Strongkored]

PSG is still not safe, but at least they are quite good with winning points in the first match. After that, there will be Milan and Newcastle, who previously played to a draw. both will probably be more difficult than facing Dortmund.
So all possibilities can still happen, but PSG has already gained an advantage. depending on their play when facing other teams in the group. PSG will probably qualify, but as group winners or not we won't know, the opportunity is still wide open for all the teams in this hellish group.

None of the teams that won in this first match are safe, because with five matches still to be played, anything could happen, especially for a group like where PSG is, where all teams have the same chance, seeing that their strengths are not much different, except for a few groups that are It's predictable who will qualify and fall, but group F is quite difficult to predict.
But winning against Dortmund is their capital to move forward more easily in the next match because Dortmund is a strong team and beating them when playing in Paris is a must for PSG who will certainly face an even more difficult level of resistance when they have to go to Germany against Dortmund, and successfully winning without conceding is a good thing, and in approximately 11 days we will face Newcatsle at St. James Park is another new challenge for PSG who have never faced Newcastle in a match before.

UCL is still remains hard to predict. I remember barcelona's case last season when the team was almost qualifying for the playstage but intermilan was just destroying barcelona at the last match day. The same thing can happen with PSG if enrique's team will not be careful in facing newcastle and acmilan. PSG needs to make sure if its performance will always be stable in any matches.
Enrique needs to make sure its club can handle the current performance when it will face newcastle and acmilan. It doesn't matter if the club is only relying on mbappe as long as PSG will able to go to the play off stage.
Mbappe deserves a lot of praises caused by he was the only one who is helping the club so much while the rest are still lack of contribution to the club.

Yeah group F will be the attention of all groups because there are 4 elite clubs, we don't know how the second match will go and every club can take advantage of the opportunity when playing at home. Newcastle was actually a little lucky because they got one point even though they were playing away, our question is whether they will be able to get more points when PSG comes as away team? we will see it on October 5 and usually PSG always has difficulty when playing away.

It's true that I have to agree that Mbappe is like carrying PSG alone, and the French striker deserves the appreciation he deserves. Luis Enrique certainly has a tough task to get PSG through the group phase, because we know that Group F is more difficult than the other groups. Now PSG has a slight advantage after the first matchday of the group phase, when AC Milan and Newcastle drew. PSG is 2 points away. It's true that at the moment it is still very difficult to predict the overall favorite club, but I think when the UCL enters the semi-finals I think it will be easier.

PSG next match in Ligue 1 will bring them together with Marsielle, even though it looks easy, so far Aubameyang and his friends are still unbeaten in Ligue 1. The battle for top position will be determined in that match i think, Nice now leads with 12 points in peak.

Well, the first UEFA Champions League 2023/2024 matchday has just ended. There was a lot of exciting drama, a shower of goals, surprises, even a saving goal from a goalkeeper on this first matchday.

One thing that stands out is Arsenal's 4-0 victory over PSV and Barcelona's 5-0 victory over Royal Antwerp. There was also a rain of goals in the Bayern Munich vs Man United match which was marked by a blunder by the MU goalkeeper, Onana. Finally, many voices emerged, was it right to buy Onana??

I think it was the wrong decision to bring Onana to Old Trafford and even though in the end his performance was not as expected, Erik ten Hag also has to take full responsibility for the series of defeats suffered by Manchester United. Onana was only good at Inter last season and at Manchester United he has been the source of endless problems so far.

It is very regrettable why David De Gea had to leave Manchester United, even though his performance last season was very stable as the main goalkeeper. There isn't even the slightest good intention from Erik ten Hag or management to keep him. If we look at the statistics of David De Gea vs Onana in the early season match with Manchester United, there we know that Manchester United made a mistake by releasing David De Gea.

Many astonishing things happened such as the loud victory of Arsenal against PSV. But that of Barcelona wasn't a surprise to me as I didn't even bother to view the match.  Antwerp is no where a match to FC Barcelona, so I expected the loud victory.
Coming to Manchester United, even if Onana accepted the blame of losing the match, I so much applaud Manchester United for fighting so well in the match. Tbh, I didn't expect Manchester United to win the match against Bayern Munich, but on a second thought, sharing the points would have been a good result for Manchester United if their goalie was stable.
When you are in the Champions League stage, you have to learn to minimise mistakes.

It's funny to read multi-page discussions about how Real Madrid lacks a strong striker (I pretty much agree with this by the way). I just remember the era of Ronaldo and how he was criticized “for empty-net goals”, “he’s just a finisher”, etc. That is, he was literally criticized for doing his job For some reason, it turns out that if a team does not have a good finisher, then all the work of the midfield can often be useless.
But as for Real this season, I think with Vinicius on the field and Bellingham, the available strikers will be enough. The main thing is that injuries do not affect the squad that Ancelotti has assembled.

Honestly I was worried about Real Madrid's performance for this season before it started. Because I thought they would surely bring a striker such as Vlahovic to have a more reliable attacking line. But they didn't and I had doubts about their season. However the current look of them is way different than I imagined.

Bellingham is really playing like not only a midfielder but also a striker right now. He is already top scorer in the squad. Even in Vinicius' presence in the lineup Bellingham is coming one step forward thanks to his high effort.

Because of this situation I also started to think Vinicius - Rodrygo (or Joselu) duo in the attacking line will be good enough.

with players like Vinicius, Bellingham, Rodrygo and Joselu, I think Real Madrid is truly perfect. I mean some people might initially be very worried about how Madrid will give a strong performance this season but it turns out that Ancelotti has indeed played an important role as a coach who provides a very strong line up as we always see in every match. even seeing Bellingham performance really impresses us if He plays an important role as a midfielder and also plays a role as a striker who always finish very well.

If we previously imagined that Madrid would really get Mbappe from the transfer market at that time, Madrid would definitely be stronger because of Mbappe excellent contribution with his running speed and collaboration with Bellingham tactical intelligence which would build a very perfect strength for Real Madrid and me. will be waiting for news about Mbappe actually coming to Real Madrid.

There is a lot of criticism of Manchester United and Onana is one of them who is blamed, but in my opinion he should not be blamed alone, indeed in the match against Bayern Onana did not perform well but Manchester United's performance has been bad in the last few matches, so in my opinion it is not only Onana, however, everyone in the Manchter United squad must be responsible for their poor performance in the UCL and in their domestic league.

I would say Newcastle and PSG played very well in the first match. Milan is one of the strongest teams in this group. Newcastle scored 1 point in the away match against Milan. The Newcastle team played well despite being inexperienced in the Champions League. PSG on the other hand earned full points against Dortmund. This has certainly increased PSG's chances of topping the table. Despite the team's performance in Ligue 1 being erratic, we saw PSG's dominance against Dortmund. The team has managed to play well with a relatively weak attack. I guess it won't be difficult for PSG to qualify for the knockout rounds.

This is incorrect; it was an embarrassing performance by Newcastle United in the champions league as they did not attempt to even attack for majority of the moments in the tie; they camped in a tight low block and were only lucky to go home with a point because AC Milan were wasteful in front of goal with main culprit Raphael Leao.

Is it a plan to give the magpies boys confidence ahead of next champions league group game? or its just poor Newcastle united? we will find out in champions league match day 2

I don't think like you. The Newcastle team is a completely new team on the Champions League platform. On the other hand, the Milan team is very experienced. Milan played in the semi-finals last season. It is very difficult to perform well against such a team. Newcastle were aiming to share the points in the away match against Milan. And they did it. Newcastle did not play in this match aiming to win. It is not to be expected that a team as inexperienced and new as Newcastle will do anything great in their first season. Newcastle played to get 1 point in this match, and they got it.

A draw while playing away is a good achievement almost all teams are targeting these results if in the end they win it is a bonus or luck
Their target is to get full points when playing at home we know there are many advantages when playing at home.
Let's see what Newcastle can do when PSG challenges them obviously this is not an easy match.

I'm afraid Onana is really a wrong choice for Manchester United at the moment. I wasn't expecting him to perform like this when he first came here honestly. Because you must all know how he performed for Inter last season. He increased his market value quite high after that performance. This improved the expectations from him when he arrived at Manchester United.

However he is still making simple mistakes. The first goal he conceded last night was really embarrassing. A goalkeeper at this level shouldn't make this kind of a mistake. I think Onana won't last too long in the starting eleven if he continues like this.

Of course, such mistakes are never expected from a goalkeeper like him but he is human so he has to take this mistake naturally because mistakes are human. Maybe we can now think that if he had not made such mistakes in the beginning, maybe Manchester United could have gone ahead in this match or Manchester United could have left the field with a draw. If we are Manchester United supporters, we should be satisfied with the way Manchester United performed. The small mistakes that Manchester United made against Bayern Munich certainly cannot be made in the next match. We need to learn from the mistakes of the match against Bayern Munich and replace those mistakes in the next match. Manchester United will be back again and strong in the next Champions League match.

The problem is that Onana's form isn't what it was last season and I have to say he's had a dip in form since signing for the Red Devils. Actually from the beginning there were many discordant voices pointing to Onana's performance and maybe I was the one who supported Onana. But after a few appearances, I honestly began to doubt and even I began to think this was the wrong signing from Manchester United. Instead, I think if De Gea was still here it would be a different story. And in circumstances like this, surely there will be those who start comparing between Manchester United's main goalkeeper last season, and now.

The Red Devils have experienced flop season in the early EPL campaign, I hoped they do bounce back to actions when there's still time. André Onana was doing exceptionally brilliant with the Nerazzurri but I'm still a hugh surprise to watch him decline in performance after signing for the new elite EPL side. Manchester United is probably not in good shape, the same exact things points out to the players and Onana is also not an exception. Erik Ten Hag did actually made few wrong signings this summer, with the likes of Mason Mount, which I consider to unnecessary and also Onana who can never replace or fit in the shoes of David de Gea.

Did you mean get 1 point from playing away against acmilan is unacceptable thing? Didn't you even imagine how big the pressures received by newcastle during the game? Newcastle is just playing UCL again after more than 1 decade was off from UCL.
You're too harsh for newcastle. Newcastle needs also to adapt with the situation of the league. The better thing to get draw away rather than lose. 1 point was also very important for the club.

Is it a plan to give the magpies boys confidence ahead of next champions league group game? or its just poor Newcastle united? we will find out in champions league match day 2

Don't push yourself to see something big from newcastle. Being able to qualify for the play off stage is already a big thing for newcastle.
PSG will face newcastle at st james park. It's a golden moment for gordon and friends to steal points from PSG.

Onana may be said to be playing well with Inter Milan in the Italian league, but not in the EPL, therefore not all players who have just moved can be equally great because of course the way they play is also not the same, I can't say that he needs time to adapt, it should be for him. A good goalkeeper only needs a few matches to adapt enough, but this didn't happen for Onana, especially against Munich yesterday. perhaps it was a game that really disappointed the fans.

I'm not a loyal supporter of Manchester United, but apart from Onana, I think a lot needs to be overhauled in their squad, including the coach. I don't know. I think Manchester United has a lot to change to be even better. Seeing the series of defeats has made a lot of people talk about them lately. .

Onana is a typical modern goalkeeper. But his abilities don't seem to match the composition of other players at Manchester United. Moreover, Onana ball distribution ability at Manchester United was not the same as when he played at Inter.

However, it can't be helped, Ten Hag wants a different style of play. Although there is a risk that Onana task will become more difficult. Apart from being required to be good at distribution, with annoying defenders, Onana is also required to be good at saving. But I am optimistic that Onana will get up and correct his mistakes, especially since this is only his first season at Manchester United and he needs time to show his best qualities to Manchester United.
