UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[tbterryboy]

Manchester City is still quite strong this season, but the UCL is quite a fierce competition and in my opinion it is very difficult for Manchester City to defend its title.
However, to qualify from the group, of course it will not be difficult for Manchester City and Leipzig is the only tough team in this group that Manchester City will face and in my opinion it is true that Leipzig is not a weak team, but if you look at the quality compared to Manchester City, of course Leipzig is not. would be too much trouble for Pep Guardiola's troops.

There is no doubt about Manchester City quality and ability to win again this year, but now things are having good changes in few teams as well as now Bayern Munich is also at his best, and they can do any surprise for the win in Champions League with Manchester City is still hot favorite for this season but as we all know Champions League is mostly having surprises and shocking results, so anything can happen in coming weeks.

As right now things are going I am feeling we will have few teams in last eight which could be interesting for the end of this season like Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan are surely going to have their spots in last eight with few others can face challenges and problems, but Pep Guardiola is magician which is doing amazing stuff at the Manchester City, and they can write history with their performance and wins in near future.

Newcastle's win against AC Milan will mean that bookmakers will place Newcastle as having a slightly greater chance of winning than PSG. I see the odds are 50:50. But in this match I have bet on Newcastle. Despite having less in the Champions League than PSG but I think the win against AC Milan makes them quite confident for this match.

Newcastle United’s game against AC Milan ended a goalless draw, no team was able to score that day but it was a very interesting match even though newcastle defended almost throughout the game. They needed a win or draw to boost their confidence. Newcastle has been having a good game since their first match with AC Milan and they have managed to win Manchester city in their League Cup and also won Sheffield United 8-0 along the way so i also think they will be given slightly smaller odd than PSG since they are playing at home and also since they had some decent games recently. I think it will be difficult to win PSG but it’s not impossible, PSG are more experienced and also have dangerous Mbappe that is capable of changing the game singlehandedly.

Newcastle can paid off the draw against acmilan when howe's club will able to get full points from beating PSG at home. I think that newcastle is performing even better right now. Newcastle needs to play offensively against PSG.
The only threat from PSG was mbappe. I don't take goncalo ramos as a threat coz he was only scoring a few goals since he was coming to the newcatle united. Howe needs to prepare something to block mbappe's movement.
Mbappe is always being the one who helped PSG a lot during the game. Being able to stop mbappe means PSG will also lose points. I hope newcastle will able to perform like when it was facing sheffield even though the quality of sheffield is very far below compared with PSG.

It cannot be denied that Manchester City's performance in the last few seasons, especially in the Champions League, has always been good and it is very natural that they are favored in every season to get the trophy.

Everything that Pep Guardiola has done in the few seasons to shape Manchester City into what it is today, it is not without reason that Pep Guardiola has succeeded in building self-confidence and implementing a new era to dominate Europe, that is what Manchester City players have, so it is not surprising that he Every match Manchester City provides a convincing game for them to achieve victory..

I think Manchester City's success under Pep Guardiola isnt only strategic. Yes, Guardiola's strategy-making skills and ability to develop a great team season after season are crucial. I fear Manchester City may become too dependent on him. His ability to reduce team pressure has helped them advance in contests. Remember, a coach change could put the club in a disorganized state. Can Manchester City retain their dominance without Guardiola's strategic thinking and strategy to preserve player quality for bigger competitions?

With the success that Manchester City are enjoying under the current manager, this top-flight side will be in for a huge blow if the manager changes. Pep Guardiola is a manager that everyone wants to play under or that every club wants to recruit for success. Pep Guardiola has never settled for one particular club, the former Spanish footballer has been in charge of Barcelona, Bayern Munich and currently Manchester City. If Pep Guardiola later expresses an interest in working for a new club, Manchester City will miss the tactics of a manager like him and the team's performance will suffer. However, there are rumors that Manchester City will not let this manager go so easily.

For me most chances Real Madrid will be having advantage even they are also having issues but things looking much better for them for this game now who is going to lead the group it's important, and this match is surely going to have big impact for this all but for me most chances we will have draw or away result.

The game is still next week, of course Napoli do not want any problems that make players feel aggrieved. If that happens, they should immediately apologize to Osimhen so that the team atmosphere is conducive. Napoli still need Osimhen to date. A few weeks ago even Garcia had to apologise for pulling Osimhen in the final minute. Even Osimhen for the second issue is ready to take legal action. means that this second problem is quite serious.

Osimhen means a lot to Napoli. The most important player in Napoli, which won the Scudetto last year, was undoubtedly Osimhen. Whoever needs to apologize would do well to apologize as soon as possible and try to contribute to the team together with Osimhen. Napoli don't need a crisis and that's the last thing they want.

This seems to be the opposite of what they do on social media They don't seem to think much of Osimhen and it really is an irony that a player who contributes to his club is verbally abused and this seems to be something that makes Napoli so naive with their treatment.

Osimhen is a very good striker especially in Serie A but with the current situation especially with Napoli's treatment this will make their relationship destroyed and the possibility of cooperation built is destroyed in an instant.

Yes, I think Napoli doesn't know themselves because so far Oshimen has contributed a lot to Napoli and scored a lot of goals for Napoli with just a small mistake giving Napoli a black eye and humiliating a player who contributed a lot to his club and brought Napoli to win Serie A. How can a club mock him? the player himself?? Even Ronaldo and Messi have also failed when taking penalties.
I can't understand what they are doing even though this could have a bad impact on the Napoli club and according to rumors Oshimen does not accept Napoli's treatment and will take this incident to court.
Napoli's match will be quite difficult because Napoli will be playing in the Champions League and against Real Madrid. Real Madrid is not an easy opponent. If Napoli and Oshimen's problems are not resolved, this will have a bad impact on the Napoli club.

I heard rumors that Oshimen would leave Napoli because of this problem but I don't know if the rumors are true or not, but I hope Oshimen moves to Real Madrid because currently Real Madrid needs a striker like Oshimen.

Even without the problem in the club Real Madrid still have a better chance of winning Napoli. Napoli performance is not a brilliant as last season and that is why I don't think that they will be capable of winning Real Madrid with Osimhen not having any issue with his club.

I don't know how true it is that Osimhen will be leaving his club and coming to Real Madrid, if it is possible then that will be nice. It is obvious that Osimhen club treated him badly knowing too well that he is the key player in Napoli, will I say that this is because he is not from Italy or because he is black.

Pep was always buiding everything started from the bottom. I remember when he was coming to the manchester city and he has been putting UCL as the main target by the club and pep was able helping city to get its first UCL trophy after so many years.
It makes me feel that if pep was the key factor why manchester city was able getting tremendous success under him. I can remember that when there were still some players like david silva and friends played for city.
It has become the starter of guardiola's success with manchester city. City is also still possible to get second UCL trophy this season. Pep was changing everything.
Pep's era with manchester city has reminded me with sir alex ferguson once he was still on manchester united. MU was getting very big success with ferguson till everything changed a lot when ferguson was leaving from MU as he retired from being a coach.
I think that city will have the same fate as manchester city once guardiola will be leaving from the club in the future. City is in easy group now. The chance to pass the group stage is very big.

What kind of set of fairy tales is this? Pep came to City which was already the champion of England. Before that, he coached Heikens' Bayern (one of the strongest teams in history), and before that he got Barcelona with the golden generation of the Spanish national team. The mega funny thing is that having received these three strongest teams, he became the first coach in history to spend more than 2 billion on transfers. Pep received the strongest teams and still set records for transfer spending. You could say he bought the titles.

If we look at the depth of the squad that they have at the moment, then clearly they have the depth of the squad that is ready to be able to defend the Champions League title consecutively. But surely the challenges they face this season will be much tougher than the previous season. Other clubs already know very well that the strength of Manchester City is very strong and with that certainly all clubs are racing to strengthen their squad as well. Especially now that many clubs are also experiencing improvements, and that will be a real competitor for Manachester City. If Pep can make that happen, then it will be extraordinary.

Of course, the depth of Manchester City's squad still supports these hopes, but things are always difficult every knockout match. Manchester City is likely to be guaranteed to qualify for the last 16 this season easily, but their real challenge will be in the last 16. If Manchester City is lucky, then they will get relatively easier opponents, but that doesn't mean they can't beat other strong teams.

In the group stage, Manchester City was only challenged by Leipzig, while the other two teams did not seem to match the quality of players that Pep Guardiola has. This is the reason why I believe they will definitely qualify for the round of 16, meaning their stage this season is relatively easy.

[fullhdpixel]

Compared to Luis Enrique and PSG, the Newcastle team and Eddie Howe are inexperienced on a platform like the Champions League. Experience is very important in a competitive platform like the Champions League. Still, it's good that the Newcastle team is performing as it is. I think they will play defensive strategy and try to secure 1 point from the match.

I forgot that Mbappe is going to miss this match. And if Mbappe misses this match, it will be very difficult for PSG to beat the Newcastle side. First of all I would say PSG attack is pretty weak except for Mbappe. The performances of Dembele, Asensio and Ramos have been erratic. On the other hand, Newcastle's defense is very strong. I wouldn't consider PSG as favorites if Mbappe is absent in this match.

I agree but now things are changing drastically before start of this season I was expecting not good about Newcastle United but after watching their performance against AC Milan now I have to change my view about Newcastle United because even they are inexperienced on this platform but still they have done good job and now have good performance against teams like AC Milan and Manchester City we can expect good from them against PSG as well because they are playing at home and having good quality players which can give them good stand.

As of now, it's official Mbappé is going to miss this match surely things are going to be not easy for them because this could be big below, and they have to manage things without him which is surely not easy specially without his presence mostly they fail to give their best specially while we have Newcastle United defence is one of the best right now in Premier League and this could be surely problem for the PSG as well.

[asriloni]

This season Manchester City are still quite strong, they have a pretty perfect squad for this season. Their balance of strength is quite well organized from the front line to the defense line. So it is very natural that Manchester City is quite superior this season. But there are always surprises and it is very likely that Manchester City will have to be able to appear in their best form, whether against a team that has equal strength or another team.

Real Madrid too, they are still considered a fairly strong team this season. Even though Real Madrid doesn't have a quality striker this season, they have Bellingham who they can rely on in their game. Maybe their strongest competitors are Bayern Munich or Psg this season, but we could be presented with a surprise team who is able to show their best qualities.

UEFA Champions League competition is here again, we're yet to discover the teams that will reach crucial stages because we're still watching group games, there would be time we'll predict the teams to reach finale. Manchester City are the reigning champions after lifting the UCL trophy previous season, this present campaign might not be an exception because Pep Guardiola keen on winning more, an ambitious coach strives for the best results for his team. Other elite competitive clubs like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are also favorite because they're the only teams to lift it in the last 4 years.

The clubs who will be going to the play off can be predicted easily. These teams are madrid, bayern, barcelona, city, intermilan while the rest like PSG, acmilan, newcastle, ect needs to work even harder in passing the group stage caused by they were in the group of hell. Im having faith in manchester city to win the UCL again this season. The squad is still as strong as before as there were not a lot of changes happened to the club. Let's say that if eddie will always put gordon and almiron as wingers that regularly play and this will far better.
Newcastle just need to make sure it the club use the proper wingers against PSG. PSG is now looking for the full points from the newcastle. I know that this is looks like awkwkward moment for newcastle caused by after a very long time has been absent from UCL and finally newcastle was just coming back again.

The results of the drawing will also greatly affect their journey in the Champions League this season. Because if the results of the drawing are not in their favor, then they will meet early with other big clubs that have the potential to beat them.
Talking about this of course we cannot forget other factors other than the strength of their squad, the results of the drawing, luck will also sometimes be something to consider.
In terms of strength they could be stronger than other clubs, but when the goddess of luck is not on their side, then they will also be eliminated early.

After all, basically every team which competing in the knockout phase later will certainly have a difficult challenge, so at least it is not only Manchester City who has a difficult challenge in that phase . Also, if we only consider the round of 16, it looks like Manchester City will still have a good chance to win and advance to the final. Because anyway, if Manchester City is still very much the favorite then of course, Manchester City has a good chance of qualifying for the semi-finals and finals, and of course Manchester City not just stuck in the round of 16 because anyway, Manchester City has a chance to go further.

The way for manchester city to get UCL for second time will not as easy as last season. It will be even harder. Its competitors have been doing huge improvements like madrid or munchen.
There will be also many clubs who will able to go to the play off. City needs to have very good mentality like previous season to make sure its team will be able to win any game during the play off.

In fact, bookies are still favoring city as the strongest contender to win the UCL this season caused by there was not big change in the club. The clin is still remain as good last season. Having some new players to strengthen its club is a common thing.

[emrecemsan]

Bayern Munich are dealing with so many injured players at the same time. But they are still able to stay really strong. In only a few days they are going to play against Copenhagen away. While they are in such a great form I don't expect anything different than an assuring win. Nothing changes for them whether they are home or away side.

I expect a bigger win this time. Manchester United resisted them really well. But there is no way we are seeing the same scenario from Copenhagen. They aren't a serious threat to Bayern Munich. They wouldn't have even been able to score 2 goals against Galatasaray if Galatasaray had better defending.

Yeah especially in defense there are some important names missing such as de Ligt and Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae might have recovered though because I don't see any injury information anymore according to my source. But even if they have some weaknesses in defense against Copenhagen I wouldn't also expect this to create much problem for them.

Copenhagen are the weakest team in the group right now. I know how they got ahead 2-0 first against Galatasaray away. However their general performance wasn't that good and it was due to Galatasaray's wasting many chances on one hand as well. I would just expect a pure destruction by Bayern Munich against Copenhagen.

The only team I'm pretty sure that are capable of winning the UCL back to back is Realmadrid they've done it severally over the years but Pep Guardiola is one coach that's full of suprises and could set another record for Manchester City this year, I won't underestimate his ability after winning the treble last summer, though it's not going to come easy, because the competition this season for the UCL is tougher than the previous.

 City are the trophy defenders and have been in good performance this season and would even top their table in the group stage so I'm not suprised that they're the bookies favourite but let's not write off teams like Intermilan, Bayern Munich, Barcelona or even Realmadrid that's won the trophy more than everyone, Realmadrid lost the trophy to City last season and would do everything possible to reclaim it this season.

The departure of Gundogan and Mahrez had quite an impact on City's performance. Plus, De Bruyne will certainly be absent for quite a long time. However, it has been confirmed that Benardo Silva, Jonh Stones will return to join their colleagues in future matches. You can be sure, City is still a strong team to beat. Now, it all depends on how Pep manages the potential of each player.  If Alvarez can replace De Brunye, or another player with that potential, Pep can use his 3-2-4-1 system again. thus, City will be the same tough team as in the previous season.

But so far, Pep tends to use his 4-2-3-1 system. actually, I don't really understand what Pep Guardiola thinks. but he is a coach who is rich in tactics, maybe he is just waiting for his team to be ready enough for what he wants. after that, Pep will implement a system according to his flagship. Theoretically, City will qualify for the group G phase, in fact they have a high probability of becoming group winners. in the round of 16, City still has a chance to qualify for the next round.
because as we agreed, they have a very capable depth of players, both core and second tier players. Whatever team they will be playing against, they will be very careful when they meet Manchester City.
Well, because this group phase has only been held once. Let's just follow every development.

[lizarder]

Everything that Pep Guardiola has done in the few seasons to shape Manchester City into what it is today, it is not without reason that Pep Guardiola has succeeded in building self-confidence and implementing a new era to dominate Europe, that is what Manchester City players have, so it is not surprising that he Every match Manchester City provides a convincing game for them to achieve victory.

It took several seasons for Pep Guardiola to bring Man City to win the Champions League and he learned well from the defeat in the previous season, until at the right time he succeeded in presenting three titles at once for Man City. This achievement was not easy and he also had to provide the management with several required players to buy. Currently, if you look at the quality of players that Man City has, it seems difficult to beat them, but Newcastle United has proven that they can still be beaten.

So Pep Guardiola has to be careful during matches in the Champions League because small mistakes can cause them to fail to advance to the next round. Although if you look at several clubs in the group, statistically Man City's chances are much greater as one of the ones who qualify for the next round or become group winners.

[tusandii]

I think Manchester City must retain Pep Guardiola because all success is in his hands, plus the management is always supported in purchasing players and is almost successful in purchasing and determining players who deserve to play at Manchester City, that's why Manchester City is able to dominate the League and Europe , I hope that President Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan and CEO Ferran Soriano can retain Pep Guardiola even though the decision whether to stay or not returns to Pep Guardiola.

In this matter, Manchester City should not depend on Pep Guardiola because every coach has challenges If he feels he has been able to conquer these challenges, he will immediately look for new challenges and Manchester City's achievement of getting the Champions League trophy last season is one of the challenges that Pep Guardiola has achieved so I I won't be disappointed if this coach leaves Manchester City and looks for a challenge at another club.
City should be more independent after getting lots of strategies and tactics from this coach, they must always be able to apply it in every match even with a new coach, but I'm sure that if Manchester City loses Pep Guardiola and is replaced with a new coach as long as Haaland is still there, I'm sure City won't will lose his performance because I see Haaland's closeness to Guardiola, making me think that Haaland is one of the players being improved by this skilled coach.

Pep Guardiola spent much money with Manchester City for winning UEFA Champion League tittle, its not easy first time arrived at Ettihad Stadium on 2016 and he needs more than six years later to make City get first Champion League trophy. Currently he failed winning Champion League after leaving Barcelona and several years with Bundesliga team Bayern Munich can't get tittles and Pep Guardiola automatically need nine years later for getting back Champion League after last time winning with Barcelona on season 2014/15.

In Manchester City, Pep Guardiola supported with much budget for transfers fees and he doesn't face difficult to make City become most expensive players and easily for winning Champion league.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Pep was always buiding everything started from the bottom. I remember when he was coming to the manchester city and he has been putting UCL as the main target by the club and pep was able helping city to get its first UCL trophy after so many years.
It makes me feel that if pep was the key factor why manchester city was able getting tremendous success under him. I can remember that when there were still some players like david silva and friends played for city.
It has become the starter of guardiola's success with manchester city. City is also still possible to get second UCL trophy this season. Pep was changing everything.
Pep's era with manchester city has reminded me with sir alex ferguson once he was still on manchester united. MU was getting very big success with ferguson till everything changed a lot when ferguson was leaving from MU as he retired from being a coach.
I think that city will have the same fate as manchester city once guardiola will be leaving from the club in the future. City is in easy group now. The chance to pass the group stage is very big.

I disagree with this because seeing what happened where when he coached Manchester City, Bayern or Barcelona he always got good things but that's not doing it from the start because when he was promoted to Barcelona in 2008 when he replaced Rikjaard at that time Barcelona was in the best condition and indeed it had entered the golden era period of Barcelona as well as when he was at Bayern because before Pep coached Bayern they were already strong and had even won back to back for the Bundesliga with Pep's presence adding strength but not starting from scratch.

For Manchester City it is also the same because in the end Pep also only continues from the condition of Manchester City which is already strong with the money they have. He is a phenomenal coach but there is another factor that makes him shine even more, which is always right in making decisions in training a club.

[kawetsriyanto]

This season Manchester City are still quite strong, they have a pretty perfect squad for this season. Their balance of strength is quite well organized from the front line to the defense line. So it is very natural that Manchester City is quite superior this season. But there are always surprises and it is very likely that Manchester City will have to be able to appear in their best form, whether against a team that has equal strength or another team.

No doubt Man City is still the strongest team in UCL this season. Sure, they have perfect players in each line, especially in attacking line. Man City also performed quite stable in every major competition so far. So, it makes sense if Man City is still the most favorite team to win the UCL title again this season. Although it is not impossible for a surprise, I believe Man City has the biggest chance to be the champion if they don't make a mistake in each match.

Real Madrid too, they are still considered a fairly strong team this season. Even though Real Madrid doesn't have a quality striker this season, they have Bellingham who they can rely on in their game. Maybe their strongest competitors are Bayern Munich or Psg this season, but we could be presented with a surprise team who is able to show their best qualities.

I don't think Real Madrid is strong enough to win UCL this season. They have a serious problem in defense and attacking line. If you learn their stats against big teams, their defense always becomes the weakest line. The latest match, their got defeated by Atletico Madrid with 3 conceded goals. I can't imagine if they play against Man City, Bayern Munich, or Barcelona. I think they may get more than 3 conceded goals. Moreover, their attackers look unconvincingly. Since they have no strong striker, their productivity in goals is decreasing very significantly this season.

[rendravolt]

It's hard to say with certainty that Manchester City will win again this season. Bayern are very strong now and Real Madrid are not as weak as expected after Benzema left. I think that everything will depend on who Manchester City will face in the playoff series. It could happen that they don't make it to the final.

I also think so, because this season Bayern Munich has become stronger than last season so there will be different competition this season, especially for the team that has the best squad. Bayern Munich and Real Madrid can still be a threat to Manchester City this season in the Champions League, but other teams can also provide the best surprises in the Champions League, such as AC Milan and Inter.

Bayern Munich is much more dangerous this season because they managed to get one of the great strikers and I think Tuchel is very happy that he finally has a very even squad depth. On the other hand, Bayern Munich will definitely be targeting a better round than last season and when they meet Manchester City again, they certainly can't wait to take revenge. Real Madrid, Inter and Milan are still strong candidates until the semifinals and especially for Real Madrid they will definitely be more motivated after last season only failing to reach the final..
